From a telegram In llio Atlanta Ounuli tiun, we learn that two deaths linve recent ly occurred at the Mate University. Mr. Clutrlea Atkinson, a graduate of the Uni versity, and Assistant Professor of En glish literature, died on Wednesday. He was a young nmn of rare talents and at the Unit of ills death held a highly boms cable position for one of hia yours. Wo knew him well and can truly say that we have aever known one more universally estaomed, or who mors richly deserved ad miration. It is sad to see a man just be ginning to reach the grand aims .if life, and with a splendid future just rising into view before him, suddenly cut off from u career which promised usefulness and fame. Mr. Atkinson had many acquaint ances in this vicinity who will lie pained to hear of his sad decease. The mime tele gram that announced this death also sta ted that Mr. James P. Dorsey died the same day. Fkiiruary M, 1875. M.ooe yards New Spring Prints, just opened. fcbSSiw IiOATRTTK A ( LAPP.

Mayor’* Court Ycilfrd*y. Patrick Lawlor, an innocent ItxAing son of Erin, was arraingM for a little disor derly action on the previous night. Paddy said he was from Baltimore, bound for Mobile. Feeling a little weary, he had taken only two “straights.” The dose proved more potent than was expected, anti soon “Reason fled from her royal throne.” Patrick was drunk but he only said a few bad words anti did nothing more. The Mayor told him that he would let him go fret; but advised him to leave these parts immediately, “iest ho fall again in tho way of temptation,” and fall. Patrick said ho would go, and wo were truly glad to sot; him get off so nicely, for his honest, gtxxl humored face, complete ly won our sympathies.

There is no mistaking ttie fact of tho obligation on the |iurt of the Russell County Commissioners to hoed the appeals of tiie citizens of the county, to havo re built and repaired the bridges which have lieen washed away by freshets and other wise going to decay. The citizens ore anxious and willing to bo taxed for this purpose, notwithstanding the present in debtedness of thecounty. There are hun dreds, if not thousands, of laborers, white and black, who would bo glad to he eugagod in this good work, for a small compensation, and even something to eat. Mechanics and laborers could soon get. >ut and frame the neeossory material for building and repairs at almost nominal cost to the county, and without, burdening the jteopie with additional taxation. Ave nues to market must lie kept open for the convenience of planters, the hauling of wood and travel; else, now can they get to and from market with their produce amt home supplies t The re-buildmg of tho bridge over Mar shall ercek, InOlrard, is a public necessity not alone to the citizens of Girard, hut to tho people of the countv. There is scarce ly any soason of the year, more especially in time of freshets, hut what one of the bridges over the Chattahoochee is under going roiHiirs for a week or ten days, there by cutting off all communication witli trade to the city, and making it n serious lose and great inconvenience to all parties interested. 1 would not award the con tract to anyone man,to make large profits out of the contract, hutomploy some suit able mechanic to overlook the construction at so much tier day. In this wise you can (mild ehoaimr, and by employing laborers, either white or colored, or both, to get out tho timbers, you will help the distressed through employment, and relieve a public and private mvesslty. I would suggest further, as a reiiof to the tax payers, that tho Commissioners, issue eountv scrip, running from one to throe years redeem able for county taxes, and in this wise, make the tax light and easily to be borne. I One of tho chief reasons for the prescut large indebtedness of the county, has been I (as I am Informed) from want ot an ener getic Tax Collector. But friend Martin is j conceded to be the right man in the right ■ place, and the people feel that under his energetic mi ministration a larger amount of taxes will be raised than ever before, j The Commissioners have power to levy an extra tax for county bridging and repairs. I Now, let them estimate what amount will \ ho required without delaying longer over i this matter, and friend Martin will hike pleasure in raising it from the people, l iie 1 demand and necessity for bridges and re- j pairs has hem presented to you, gentle-! men of Couuty Commissioners, and let me i urge you “to acquit yourselves like men," amt receive therefor the thanks and plau dits of the people.

So M. E. says Old Maid is not a woman? It is very rash of 51. E. to suy so. Old Maid has bad many ups and downs in life, has been in e<x , iety and out of it, met every shape of man or woman that the present age can furnish, has hud many censures upon tho rather austere life that she loads, has often suffered from having been misunderstood; but she never yet suffered anything so cruel as to l>o unsexed. She can stand M. E.’s taunts on the necessity of hor single st ito; she can endure to lx* called passes; she can tolerate the neglect and indifference felt and shown to ladies who reach twenty-live unmarried; yes, she can boar all the abuse gratuitously donated to old maids; but to be called a boy is quite too much. She never was a boy in her life. Bhe cannot conceive what offence she could have committed against M. E. to provoke that lady to call her a boy. Asa littlo girl she would not ©von play with boys; as a young lady she con | siderod lx)ys her bete noir; as a mature ■ woman sho pronounces boys the most ln ! sufferable of all necessary social nulsan c*;s. She would go back to the grave of her maternal grandparent and weep bit terly, if she had to bo born again and ** born a boy. Boys become young men—in a surpris | ingly short time too; young men become i young bachelors; young bachelors grow •to lx* old bachelors; and old bachelors j grow —; no they don’t grow’ to is* any j thing. They were never known to become ! anything. Their glory is reached when j they become priests of celibacy. They can only be cross aud crabbed, and lonely ami : unhappy, and vent theLr block bile in mis- I erabie flings at us ok! maids. We nevor ! J could understand why tlmy hate us so. j ■ We are really tin* lx?st friomls they have in the world. They are buffetol and scorn- j !ed by all the world except ourselves. The j world is always troubling them. They ! have few sources of pleasure, and th<*se ’ few sources arc fast drying up. Even the Government has gone to work to make life I Intolerable to an old bachelor. It taxed his comforts until they ore no longer com forts. It taxed his tobacco, and he no lon- I ger smokes his pipe In peace; it taxed his ! whiskey, and his bottle lies empty on the [shelf; it taxed his dog, and the solitaire j sits mournfully by his unswept hearth, | with only a small, lean kitten, that is too j diminutive and unvigilant to guard his ! scanty wardrobe from the ravages of the rots; and now it lias taxed his state of cc libacy itself, a crowning infamy! and the poor, lone man is too unhappy and too desolate to live. When his tobao ! co was taxed he Haid it was a shame, but he would give up the we<xl; when his whiskey was taxed in; thought it was a | curse anyhow and joined a temperance society; when his dog was taxed he broke . out in the language of Mark Twain and | said, ‘‘this thing is getting monotonous;” ; but now when his celibacy is taxed—like j the well known apple-cart driver, who found on reaching tin* top of a hill that the apples had all rolled out except one : which was fulling as he turned round ho would say a little something but he cannot |do justice to the subject. Truly taxation iis grievous. Tho old maids throughout tho country will hold indignation mootings ami order resolutions of sympathy jmssed and forward**! to each old bachelor in the Btate of Georgia. Further, they will em ploy tho 1)08 1 artists in tho land to provide sketches to illustrate tho life and charac j ter of every member of both houses of the present Legislature. The sketches will appear in The Graphic and other illustra sembly may bo held up to the scrutiny and censure of the civilized world. The Governor, too, because he did not veto this infamous bill, shall hang in effigy, and have such a shame branded upon his name that the whole family of Bmitius will go down with Ichubod, “thy glory has de part'd” written over the House to tho latest posterity. The bill itself shall bo snatched from tho archives of the State, and trumpet'd t the winds that It may go sounding down through ages, ana themutlzed as a crowning legislative in famy. The dead shall hear it and there will be a wail among the pale nations of the grave. Homer will listen t) the tale of wrong, and weep because he did not have this instead of the wrath of Achilles as the subject of his Iliad; De mosthenes will run to the l>oundaries of Hailes and try h> leap across t> the shores of time to stand up and deliver another philippic; Cicero will tell the Roman Sen ators that if he had lived to read this bill he could have made an invective that would have shaken the globe itself and sent his tame to the fartherest star; and .all the fathers of the Grand Republic and of the Empire State will meet, in ghostly conclave to reprimand a Governor and a legislative body who have brought such a stain upon the National escutcheon.

Swinging is pronounced by medical men to be a good exercise, but many a poor wretch has come to his death by it. Upon almost ©very cornsr a crowd of disconsolate bachelors maybe found, whis pering to each other the sad tale of their woes. A wit says that our modern cities are , very wiejmd, but are much bettor than Sodfom of old wits, for they have a thou sand good lots.
