There was a brightness, a freshness
rnd glow about Annie Breton that won
f.tjr>budy over to her before ,bey were
aware of’ if. It was curb us to note that
everybody agreed in one thing; that she
was not a beauty, and could not be
termed pretty. Come to analyze bur—
to measure the width between her eye ,
length of her nose, proportions of her
mouth, complextion, hair—really there
was not a anugle remarkable feature.—■
What it was that lasctnated every - one
who came id contact with her few ci>uld
tell. As for Annie herself the cliieF
charui of all was revealed in the i’ae
that she was wholly uhconcious of In r
charms So, when Alien McDonald—*
young Allen the wealthiest mun in the
comity —laid his lamia, h s elegaut es
tabhahmentr and their owur at her feet
oue afternoon in October on tne russet
colored leaves, no oue was more sur
pristd tbau Miss Breton. Stop? I wiil
do her the justic to say that site
ws up opined for evidences of friend-
riendahi[) ; she had not thought he
entertau ed the idea uf making her his
wife.
Her surprise was transient, carefully
c necaled. He s;;w that tlie "dewy
brightness of her face was brightened a
trifle, that was all. W ith ibe self-pos.
sc.sion and gt ace of a queen, Missßre
ton asked 'time to consider.” And Mr
McDonald was compelled to be content
with that answer. 1 o say that the young
utm was ill at. ease, mortified, would
scarcely convey the truth. He was
angry with himself for risking a refus
al
Allen had a confidante. To him he
revealed the - troth. Unfortunately for
him ho selected the lust place in 'the
world fora private cm v-ei-ut ion . The
frtcud* met in a photographer's gallery
and in the absence of the artist this oc
cured : • ‘
“ T Mos it occur to, you there uiay be a
riva * said the L iotid. '■ *
“I don’t cquceive v.ho it'cou’d be.’'
replied Allen
• “'Ytiu can rah over .her acquaintances
and friends hi year mind ” j
“There is no xme better acquainted
with her than myself, Ihi&I sun aware
of. Stop ! Yes, there is a fellow—you,
don’t kuotv htch—a carpftntcr, dr some
thing of that sort, named Lane.*'
“AVho by the way,has achieved dis
tinction as an architect They say he
is boun Ito make Jvi way'. *1 4 ; gc eay
it is the same and young Hatherton
laughed at his friend’s lengthening lace
Allen eflected. it would be mortify
ing, isi leed, to be outstripped by a p<or
young mec banic ; he with an income
ofS7,OUO % year.
’“I see it disturbs you. Have a caic,
my bo
“I’ll wager you my ponie3 against a
pair ••!’ gloves—any thing you jdease
that I win the day, ’ said Allen hot
ly. j *
“0 ! don’t bo offended, only dm t De
too sure.”
“Will you bet ?”
“Since you presist, yes.”
“Hone. Shake on that.' 1
“With all iny heart, oid fellow,and, I
hope you’ll win.”
“It s a go.”
Had he known that he had a listener
and that the listener the subject of
their discussion, he would have been
less confidant. . -For in the Indus’watt*
ing room beyond, Annie Bre on lifted a
finger waruinglv, as at her
friend. A puff of air j; a. chance
lu demerit nn the part of fheyotmg men
might have revealed the young ladies
Miss Allson put her Laudkerchief
to hei lips, and stifled a v laugh
Again Anuie’s finger was held up waru
ingfy.
“Be still. It will be very awkward if
they see us here.’'- *
Luckily the operator entered at that
moment, and thus relieved them of their
suspense.
“ye will say nothing about it,” said
Annie. “At the mint time I will pun
ish him." . * .
“And Ihrqvf away (be bef,t catch in
h e county.”
CALHOUN, GA.. SATURDAY, DECEMBER 1. 1877.
“That for the best ‘catch/ as you call
him ” Really, Miss Breton looked su
perb at (hat moment, “As if money
could ever weigh against braius r decen
cy, or love.”
“My dear, you and I know a host
who are dying* tf be honored by such
mention."
“There is no accounting for tastes.
Give me n man who ca- keep bis own
counsel, ITun wno is not a fool."
•It #o(hetiftc# hwpperns—it e4ien hap
pens—that a woman's chance for matri
monial advancement arc fl ing together
Breton’s experience. Tne very next
morning Arthur Lane called iu person,
und proposed in f manner that proved?
to her that to him the decision was a
question f momentous importance. He
was a mau of deep feeling, unde
monstative hut his embarrassment,
his very*stlence pleaded for.him as h*
departed with the question still unset
tled.
And no.y Miss Br tonkegh oto fhide
herself, and to marvel hot she could
have entertained Mr. McDonald's prop
osition. This man’s manner was .o dif
ference. Iu short, although the juoiv
lOif’s mail would aunounce his fate; she
sut down then and there, and addre-sed
the lover a Dote bearing a single word,
• Ves/’ and rose from h t writing wkh
spa- kliug eyes and flushed cheeks.
In due tuno Allen McDonald applied
lor bis answer. He was vain enough to
think’that a little time was ail that was
needed No woman, he argued, could
reflect upon his proposal without sur
rendering. No woman would throw
away seven thousand a year, especially
with such au accomplished handsome,
weiUbred appendage as hiuiseli A
man struggling for recognition upon the
threshold of a profession that required
influence us well as a decided talent had
no chance with him.
Wheu he was announced, Miss Bre
ton determined to prevent him from
subjecting himself to unnecessary hu
miliation She was so charitable ub to
credit him with more feeling ibau he
possessed.
“I have called Miss Breton, lor my
answer.” He bowed, reflected au atom
of dust from his skeve and aat down.
J’hat action froze M issßreton’s syrnpa
tli?- '
• ; I almcwt regret that £ did not give
it ar. otfte, Mr. McDonald." , „ .
“Mister So ! she had not had suf
ficient time W hat a fool he was, not to
give iter plenty of time. Of course no
girl liked the idea of selling herself
efn*ap-.‘"
s “Mf , dear Mies Breton, allow me
to sqy~ror permit me to call you An
ne — } y
The quiet look she gave him checked
tlie speech. He hesitated a moment.
“ You sur rJy do not mean —perhaps 1
did n.dfigife you time. Take time Miss
Breton.” *.
“I have ftOKStdered.”
“Andyou, mffan to tell me, MRs
Breton—”
“That I put my heart in the scale
against a pair of ponies valued at two
thousand dollars,” kiid Annie with a
Curving, lip- '‘Avid I find my heart
heavier thau the ponies.
The world now says Mrs. Lane uiaue
a wise choice. ■> Few men are more re*
-pected tliau lie*r husband The lessen
did McDonald g*>od. It did much to
wards curi g him of his vanity, besides
teaching him ocv.cr to bet on woman s
love • >
New Postal kullngs.
i The following are some new postal
rulings, which will be of interest to the
public :
Iron door castings should not goby
mail at less than two cents per ounce.
The postage on all matter wholly or in i
part in writing (except book manuscript
passing bet.freeu aut hors and publishers,
local ci drop letters, and the U S. p s
tal cards) is fixed etthree cents per half
ounce or fraction thereof That such
matter may be mailed in unsealed en
velopes makes no difference in the rate
of postage. Papers sene through the
mails lor free circulation are liable to
postage rates (prepaid),.at one cent for
every two ounces. •' ;~f/.
In the case of the Wiscontin Green
back, which is printed in one county
in Wisconsin, and has its office of pub*
1 teati n in another county of that State,
th-t Post-office i)epai tment decides that
copies of said papers are not entitled to
free transmission in the mails to sub
scribers in either county
Copies of newspapers not deigned f<ir
regular subscribers can not be sent by
tnnii in bulk, with t\ e names of rfie par
ties for whom the papers are intended
respectively written upon them without
subjecting the entire package, to letter
runs ol postage.
Postage stamps were created fi*r the
purpose of prepaying postage on mail
matter, and a Postmaster is not comped
d by any postal law or regulation to
receive them in payment • f postage
due on mail matter forwarded to his of
fice for delivery. Five cent, three cent
and one cent pieces are a legal tender at
their nominal value for any amount not
exceeding twenty-five cents in any one
payment, and Postmaster will uot hesi
late hereafter to receive them in pay
ment for postage stamps, where the
auiout tendered does not exceed twenty
five cents.
Copies of papers on file, by the De
partment, are not furnished to applicants
except ou certificate of counsel that the
tame are required in a suit iclually
pending in a court of record.
WHERE NOAH^LANDED.
The magnificent View Wnich an
Englishman Beheld From the
Top of'Arnrat.
The London Spectator, speaking of
the ree nt successful ascentioo of Mount
Ararat by Mr Bryce, says :
“Mr. Bryce has given to the world a
wonderful word.picture of that amazing
and awfuT spectacle, 4 of that ‘Tandercape
which is now what it was before man
crept forth on the earth, and mountain
which stand about the same as they
when tho*volcanic fires that piled
tGvm up were long ago extinguished
but he could not tell us what the awe
and yearning that came over him in that
tremendous solitude, where “Njitiiresits
enthroned serenely c<ilm, aud speak to
her children only in the storm aud earth
quake that level their dwellings in the
dust”
. “Hi* vision ranged tjyqqe£

chain of the Caucasus; drarfy made out,
but l£a3beek,-Elbrus and tige mountain*
of ikghestutt visible, with” the *line of
the Caspian sea upon the horizon ; to
the north, huge extinct volcano of Ala
Goz. whose three neaks inclose a enow.,
patched ci-ater, the dim plain of Erivan
with the silver river running through
it; westward, the Taurus ranges ; and
northwest, the upper valley of

cient capital of the Armennian
the great Russian fortress of AJexandro
pol, and the hill where Kars

er look out upon this wonderful specta
ole.
“While it was growing upon him, not
indeed in magnificence but in compre
hensibility, “while the eye was still
unsatisfied with gaziug,” tne mist cu -
tarn dropped, enfolded him, and shut
him up alone with the awful mountian
top. “The awe that fell upon me," he
says, “with the sense of utter loneliness
made time pass unnoticed, and I might
nave lingered long in a sort of dream
bad not ihe piercing eold that thrill
ed through every limb recalled me to a
sense of the risks delay might involve."
The descent was made in safety, but by
the lime Mr Bryce came-in sight of the
spot, yet far off, where his friend bad
halted, “the sun had got behind the
southwestern ridire of the mountain,and
his gigantic figure bad fallen aerrs&the
great Araxes pain below, w'hile the red
motiniahia of Media,far itt-fV southeast,
stiil glowed reddnr than ever, turned
swiftly to a splendid purple in the dying
ligh ”
“At six o’clock he reached - the bi
vouac and rejoiced his friend, wh
have look with strange feelings into the
eyes which had looked upon such won
drous sights since sunrise. Three days
later Mr. Bryce was at the American
aaona-try of Elc-’miadzin, near the
northern foot of Ararat, and was pre
sen ted to the archimandrite who rules
the house. ‘This Englishman’ said the
Aexenian gentleman who was
acting an interpre.er has’ ascended to
to th-i top of Massi* ’ The venerable
smiled sweetly, and replied ‘That can
not be. no one has ever beeu there.—
It is impossible.’

A Stray Youth.
The LogknspoJ (Ind.) Pharos says:
On the 11th of last August Edwin R
Taber, a lid fourteen years of age, five
feet high, square build, larg blue eyes,
freckled lace, uneven teeth and of po
lite and uvr:l.y bearing left his father’s
home in thisAity He was afterward
seen it Lafayette, Indiana, bn* before
bis "each the he had taken
his departure.
Paul Taber, E*q , the father of the ;
hoy, is a worthy and highly respectabl;
cilizen of this city. While he and bb*
excellent wife were mourning over the
\ty who had causelessly strayed from
his comfortable home a still greater
affliction was visited upon them. In
one four of their remaining chil
dren died of diphtheria, three of whom
were burjed-.iu pne day. It is believed
that if the affliction that has fallen up*
on his fond parents was known to the
absenti£ddy he would rctu p n at once to
lofe and it is in that hope that we

Kotuauisni anil the Negro.
AYehpishop Purees,of Cincinnati,says
that - the negro children of the South
must be gathered into the RotoanCath
olic Church, urges the establishment of
Catholic schools for them throughout
the Southe-n-S ates. If the proposi
tion were to be vofed on whether or not
the public school system should be ex
tended and -developed in the South,
nineteen out of every twenty Roman
Catholic votes would be cast against it.
| It is not the general education and erw
lightemnent of the colored race that the
Catholics desire, but their conversion
to Catholicism, ’this interest in the
negro race is wholly of recent growth.
It dates Rom the day that the freedman
became a voter. A large number of
Catholic priests are now quietly at work
among the negroes n various Southern
cities, and two hundred colored boys
have'been sent over to Rome to be ed
; ueated in the Jesuits’ College for the
priesthood.— Cleveland Leader
A drunken legislator said that he
was a “self-made man” “That fact”
said Mr. G-eeley, ‘'relieves the Al

His “TeleplMMMs”
A Detroit saleot) keeper bjis sufferod
much pecuniary loss at the hands of
dead-beats,, and has rcaked his brain
for a remedy. It does not pay s to knock
a mao down because he has no money,
and harsh words collect a croird and
give a place'a hard name. Ihe other
day ihe salnonist got the idea he bad
been struggling after. He rigged up a
wire, a mouth-piece, and other parts of
a telephbnraud jss ready for the fif*,
case. I 1 came along yesterday morning.

'was going on, and the saloonist continu
ed :
“All light. T want to give you a
discription of a suspicious-looking ehor*
acter —j.ust gone out of my saloon. Are
you ready ?”
There was an interval of two or
three seconds, and the saloonist went
on :
“About five feel eight—light hair—
blue eyes —goatee —brown overcoat —

“Say, you ! here’s your 15 cents for
that braDdy ! I had some change in
my vest pocket!’’
“Oh —ah—yes,” smiled the saloonist,
and, taking the money, he weut back to
the mouth-piece and called :
“It’s all right —I made a mistake

The beat walked out without a word,
but as he reached the street he growl

Labor.
Labor, honest labor, is mighty and
beautiful. Activity is the ruling ele
ment of liie and its highe&t relish. —
Luxuries and c uquest are the result of
labor ; we can imagine nothing without
it. The noblest man on earth is he who
put his hand cheerfully and proud'y to
labor. Labor is a business and ordinance
of God. Suspend labor, and where s
the glory and pomp of the earth— the
fruit, fields and palaces, and the fash
ioning of matter, for which men strive
and war ? Let the labor scorner look to
himself,and learn what are the trophies.
From the crowo of his bead to the sole
of his foot, (unless he is a Oarib, naked
as tne beast,) he in the debtor and slave
of toil. The labor which he scorns has
tricked him into the statute and appeal*
ance of a tnau. Where he gets las gar
menting and equipage? Let labor an
swer. Labor, which makes music in
the mine anu the furrow and the forge
—oil,scorn labor, do you, man who nev
er yet earned a morsel of bread ? La
bor pities yon proud fool, and liugf,s
vou to scorn. You shall pass to dust,
f'orgoiton, but labor will live on forever
glorious in its conquests and monu
ments. — Appleton's Journal.
The Cry of Envy,
The successful man is always a tar
get for the arrows of envy. There’s al
ways somebody at band to tell how poor,
how no aceouut he used to be, and to
express wonder and astonishment that
he should ever “amounted to anything.”
The fact that tie has proved himself a
success,it seems to make some < f his ac
quaintances feel that they have been
robbed in a manner, and that by so
much as he has risen above in position
or influence, by so much, they are
dwarfed. They will not admit tue fact
that he has justly earned his position
but attribute it all to some streak of
“luck." Now the truth is that there
are very few wen ol note before the
publio who have not fought their way
up throuph povertv obscurity, disaster
and couutlcss opposition of adverse cir
-cutnslaoces In fact almost everybody
“that is anybody” ha? had to fi.-ht for
his crowD, and when he gets it should
uot everybody rejoice wi-'h him? 1) un
less there’s many a rough diitnond that
is never polished and set, bet lies buri
ed hi mountain gulches covered with
mud: many a “mute inglorious Milton”
in quiet country church yard ; but the
world is flashing with with light froi>
diamonds that are set,ringing with uitr

neglect so many things necessary to
our well being. The man oS business
with an eye only to his credit in the
\ financial vtorld,. the individual of ele
gant leisure whose only aim is. to attray
himself to the best advantage, the
young lady who idly listening to spring’s
divine harmonies, feels not the ap
proach of disease in the feeling of
t languor which possesses her—all alike
surrender too easily to the advances
guard of disease, when, by a judicious
investment in Pvrtaline, or Tabler’s
Vegetable Liver Powder, a long array
of ills is put to rout. Buy Portaline,or
'fabler's Vegetable Liver Powder, and
rid yourself of disorders arising from a
torpid liver.
