A young friend of ours, named Gunibs, undertook to start a paper out in Cam bria county, a short time ago. He called it the Cambria Milky Way lie said in his prospectus that he intented to make the Milky Way lively spicy, vig orous, fearless and entertaining; and he did. In the first number he called the editor of the rival paper “ a diabolic li ar, an unmitigated scoundrel, and a remorseless assassin.” He alluded to the mayor in a cheerful paragraph, as “a corrupt magistrate, whose torments from the remorse which festered in his soul were only surpassed by the physical ag or.y which is always the punishment of the depraved and riotous debauchee.” He soothed the feelings of the postmas ter with the remark that “ the specula tions of this official Dick Turpin can be compared to nothing but the terrific robberies committed in the past by those dastardly Spanish buccnncers whom he so closely resemble* in general charac ter.” He announced, under the head of t: Social Gossip,” that a certain young man had been rejected the evening be fore by the lady of bis love, and volun teered the information that it was 11 the wisest thing she could have done under the peculiar circumstances ;” and he re lated how, upon the preceding day, he heard another moon-struck young gen tleman named Alexander Jones remark to a friend that “ if anything will make a man feel juicy about the heart, it is to talk velvet to a pair of sky-colored eyes, by moonlight, in a clover field.” The next edition of the paper was not issued at the regular time. Finally, sonic cop ies were sent over the town in balloons, and they contained these editorial re marks : “The editor has found it impossible to go out to hunt for news Rems,because the mayor, and the editor of the Times, and the postmaster.and Alexander Jones, And a number of other individu Is whose names we have not been able to learn, have been sitting on the curbstone and roosting around on the back fence all the morning with shot guns and other murderous weapons, and looking as if they were in earnest. We give notice here that we have moved the fire-proof safe against the door of our sanctum, and have lined the stairs with spring guns, cross-eyed Irishmen, and insane bull-terriers who have not been fed for a week. The privileges of a free press shall not be interfered with while we wield a pen or possess a bull dog.” The Milky Way, hovvaflrei, died next day, Mr. G umba having slid down the waterspout and t#ken the early train for Kansas. These Outrages against edi tors will have to be stopped, or William Penn will have died for his country in vain. —PliiladeJphia Dispatch. < s»— Remarkable Masonic Incident. The first Masonic funeral that ever occurred in California, took place in the year 1810, and was performed over the body of a brother found in the Day of San Francisco. An account of the cer emonies states that on the body of the deceased was found a silver mark of a Mason, upon which was engraved the initials of his name. A little further investigation revealed to the beholder the most singular exhibition of Masonic emblems that was ever drawn by the inge nuity of man upon the human skin.— There is nothing in the history or tradi tions of Free Masonry equal to it.— Beautifully dotted on his left arm, in red and blue ink, which time could not efface, appeared all the emblems of the apprenticeship. There were the Holy Bible, the square and compass, the twen ty-four inch gauge and common gavel. There was also the Masonic pavement, representing the ground floor of King Solomon's Temple, the indented tessel which surrounds it, and the blazing star in the center. On his right arm, and artistically executed in the same indeli ble liquid, were the emblems pertaining to the fellow craft degree, viz : the square, the level and the plumb. There were also five orders of Architecture — Tuscan, Doric, lonic, Corinthian, the Composite. In moving the garments from his body the trowel presented itself with all the other tools of operative masonry. Over his heart was the pot of incense. On the other parts of his body were the bee hive, the “ Book of Constitutions,” guarded by the Tyler’s sword, pointing to a naked heart; the All-seeing eye ; the anchor and ark ; the hour glass; the scythe j the second problem of Euclid; the sun, moon, stars and comet; the three steps emblematic of youth, man hood and age. Admirably executed was the weeping Virgin, reclining upon a broken column upon which lay the “Book of Constitutions.” In her left hand she held the pot of incense, the Masonic emblem of immortality of the soul. Immediately beneath her stood winged Time, with his scythe by his side, which cuts the thread of life, and the hour glass at his feet, which is ever re minding us that our lives are withering away. The withered .and attenuated fingers of the destroyer were placed among the long and gracefully flowing ringlets of the disconsolate mourner. — Thus were the striking emblems of mor tality beautifully blended in one picto rial representation. It was a spectacle such as Masons never saw before, and in all probability, such as the fraternity will never witness again. The brother’s name was never known. Colorado Chieftain. ♦ »- From the interest that the Washing ton Chronicle manifests in North Caro lina polities, one would fancy that Hol den still imagines that he is Governor ot hat State. CALHOUN, GA., THURSDAY, OCTOBER 19, 1871. Sut Luvcugood at a Candy Pulling. I had a heap of trouble last Christ mas, and 1 11 tell you bow it happened. Dekin Jones gave a candy-pullin’ and I got a stool, as they say in North Car olina, and over I goes. Sister Poll and I went together, and when we got to Jones’ the house was chuck full. Dog my cats if there was room to turn around. There was Suze Harkin—she’s as big as a skinned horse—and six other Har kins and Simmonses, and Peddigrews, and the Schoolmaster and his gal, be side the old dekin and the dekiness, and enough little dekins to set up half a dozen young folks in family bizness. Well, bimeby the pot began to bile, and the fun begun. We all got our plates ready, and put flour on our hands to keep the candy from slickin', and then we pitched into pullin’. Wasn’t it fun ? I never saw sich laf fin and cuttin’ up in all my born daze. I made a candy bird for Em Simmons. Her and me expect to trot in double harness some of these daze. She lbade a candy goose for me. ihen wo got to throwin’ candy balls >into one another’s hair, and a runnin’ from one side of the house to tuther, and out into the kitchen, till everything upon the place was gummed over with candy. I got a pine bench, and Em Simmons sot close to me. Suze Harkin—confound her pictur— throwed a candy ball stock into one of my ize. I made a bulge to run after her and heard sumthin rip. My stars alive ! Wasn’t I pickled ? I looked around, and thar was the gable end of my bran new britches a stickin’ to the pine bench. I backed up agin the wall sorter craw r fish-like and grinned. “ Sut,” said sister Poll, “ what’s the matter ?” “ Shut up !” sez I. “ Sut.” says Em, “ como away from that wall; you’ll get all over grease.” “ Let her grease !” sez I, and sot down on a washboard that was lying across a tub. feeliu’ worse than an old maid at a weddin’. Purty soon I felt somethin’ hurt, and purty soon it hurt agin. * Ice! whis ! I jumpted ten feet hi, kicked over the tub, out flew old Jones’ Christmas turkeys, and you ought to seen me git. 1 cut for tall timber now, jumped etakod and ridered fences, and smashed brush like a runaway hariken till I got home, anil went to bed and staid there two daze. Es old Jones’ barn burns down next winter, and I’m arrested for it, and if ennybody peers as a witness agin me, I’ll bust his doggoned head ! Them’s my sentiments. Our Public Men, Jefferson died comparatively poor; indeed, if Congress had not purchased his librar} 7 , and given for it five times its value, he would with difficulty have kept the wolf from the door. Madison saved money, and was com paratively rich. To add to his fortune, however, or rather that of his widow, Congress purchased his manuscript pa pers and paid $39,000 for them. James Monroe, the sixth President of the United States, died in New York so poor that his remains found a resting place through the charity of friends. John Quincy Adams left some $150,- 000, the result of industry, prudence and inheritance. He was a man of method and economy. Martin Vaji Buren died very rich.— Throughout his political life he looked out for his interest It is not believed that he ever spent thirty shillings in politics. Ilis party shook the bush and he caught the bird. Daniel Webster squandered a million in his life, the product of his professional and political speculations. He died leaving property to his children and his debts to his friends. The former sold for less than $20,000, the latter exceed ing $250,000. Henry Clay left a handsome estate.— It piobably exceeded SIOO,OOO. He was a prudent manager and scrupulous ly honest man in all of his transactions. James K. Polk left about $150,000 ; $50,000 of which he saved from his Presidency of four years. John Tyler left $50,000. Before he reached the Presidency he was a bank rupt In office he husbanded his means and then married a rich wife. Zachary Taylor left $150,000. Millard Fillmore is a wealthy man, and keeps his money in a strong box. It will not be swallowed up in specula tion nor squandered in vice. Ex-President Pierce saved some $40,- 000 from his term of office. And at the end of Grant’s Presiden tial career, it can be said he went in a pauper and come out a millionaire. Live it Down. —An honest black smith was once grossly insulted, and his character infamously defamed. Friends advised him to seek redress by means of the law, but to pne.and all he replied : “ No; I will go to my forge, and there in six months I shall have worked out such a character ami earned such as all the judges, law courts and lawyers in the world could never give me. He was right. It is by honest labor, in dustrious toil, manly toil, and conscience void of offense that we assert our true dignity, and prove our truth, honesty and respectability. Guizot is writing a book on the utoral condition of France. It will not be a very large volume. Wh'Vt TvUo Hours a Week Will Do There was a young girl in one of our manufacturing towns who was very poor, and found difficulty in earning her liv ing by needle work. Still, she longed to give something to him who bad given so much for her. After carefully think ing over all the means in her power, the thought that by careful management, she might put aside two hours in every week for His special work, and at once began the new plan. She knew of num bers of ragged, half-starved children, who were prevented from coming to school by their want of clothes, and she would try if some of them could not be made tidy and fit to appear, if she took them in hand. So, after getting a little help, in the way of cast-off clothing, from one and another friend, she cut, and patched, and contrived, and some neat little frocks and jackets soon ap peared, as the result of her two spare hours. By and by some young friend, pool* like herself, offered to join her, and, as their numbers grew, they were offered the use of the school-room. Now, ev ery Thursday evening, a happy company of these workers for Jesus may be seen busy with their needles, may often be heard singing at their work, and will all be found to agree that the weekly two hours have proved a source of happiness —a treasure trove f-om which they would not part for anything. On Sun days, if you could see the large classes which gather round them little once ragged children, who, but for them, would never have entered a place where they might be told about the love of Christ, you would find that their work had not been in vain. - A Touching Appeal. —The first Confederate soldier killed in the war between the States was Henry \V yatt, of North Carolina, who fell at Bethel, and is buried in Hollywood Cemetery, at Richmond, Virginia. A brief inscrip tion on his tombstone, telling the event ful history, attracts the attention of ev ery visitor to the cemetery, and on me morial day no Confederate grave is more lavishly decorated than that of young Wyatt. The dead son is remembered and honored, while the living father is neglected or forgotten. John Wyatt, the father of Henry Wyatt, is now in the poor-house in Pitt county, North Carolina. The boy, who would have been the prop of his old age, shed his blood for us in the first battle of the war, and it rests with his surviv ing comrades to save the patriot father from further humiliation. A trifling contribution from the Confederate sol diers will make a venerable old man comfortable for the rest of his days, and we sincerely hope that every South erner who wore the gray with honor, will send a few pence for the father of Henry Wyatt, to Captain W. J. McKe rall, of Marion, South Carolina, who has kindly volunteered to forward all these donations to their destination.— Memphis Appeal , 22i7. The Boston Post says this is what occurred at breakfast after Gen. But ler’s defeat: “ After a while the Hon. repast, got up and walked round to where the General was sitting. ‘ Good morning, General,’ he said, with a fa miliar slap on the back ; ‘ allow me to take your baud, for although I have been opposed to you throughout the whole campaign, I am not the man to maintain antipathies, Shak* hands, General.' But not so. The General felt too bad. So he looked about hur riedly, recognized the gentleman who was addressing him, and turning his back point-blank on him. lie held out his glass to the servant and said, ‘ Here, waiter fill that up with water.’ It was a determined rebuff, and shows that the General will not forget in a hurry those who have been so bitterly antagonistic to him.” It is a popular belief that women eat nothing. It is, of course, conceded that they sustain life by the consumption of some article of nourishment; but eating, in the whole acceptance of the word, is supposed to be foreign to female nature. This fallacy is founded and sustained by women themselves, who, during the affected period of their lives, cultivate small appetites as being of semi-angelie construction. When the pernicious nonsense is conscientiously carried out, the results upon the would-be angels are squalor,* red noses, certain loss of vigor, general limpidness, and some other unpleasant consequences. But, as a rule; the smallest appetites at the fash ionable tables ' are exhibited by those shrewd girls whose natural and healthy wants have been thoroughly appeased by secret stuffing. Need we refer our readers to the historical poem concern irfg Violante in the pantry gnawing of a mutton bone, reminding them how she gnawed it, how she clawed it, when she found herself alone ? All this is direct deceit, however, practiced on un sophisticated old bachelors, who, when they have made the dainty creatures theirs, find out by the butcher’s book an ocular proof, what sturdy trencher women they have married. Watch a healthy girl at a supper, during the intervals of dancing ; she consumes by installments four times as much as her partner, and seems, as is the case, none the worse for it. Our experience tells us that women cat, in proportion to their weight, as much as men, and are no more fairies in this respect than in the matter of weight.— Appleton's Journal. A Silesian clergyman has been put in prison for six months for speaking (jisrespeotfully of King William. Seduction Case. We find the following in the Atlanta Constitution of Sunday: For two days DeKalb Superior Court has been engaged in the trial Rev. M. D. A\ ood (Presbyterian) on the charge of seduction. Eminent counsel are ar rayed on each side. The State is rep resented by Solicitor General E P. Howell and Col. C. Peeples. The de fendant by Col. G. N. Lester and Hon. M. A. Candler. But two witnesses were examined for the prosecution, a Mrs. Chivers and her daughter. The defense offered no testi mony. The young Miss Chivers testi fied that she.was a wembeUof the church of which he was pastor, and attended his school. That she placed great con fidence in him. In 1807, the first time she states, that he used improper language to her, was in a lane. He praised her beauty and intelligence, and hugged and kissed her. She cried, but be accompanied her home and kissed her at the gate/ The second time lie came to her house after bed time, and heard her lesson. Afterwards he plead a headache and lying upon a bed begged her to rub his bead. From this time she dates her ruin. She states that she frequently went to his house of her own accord, and that the intimacy was car ried on from 18G7 to 1870 or 1871. She avers that he told her that his wife was so only in name ; that he could con fide in her; that she couldn’t live long; that he and Miss Chivers were conge nial, and that on the death of his wife he would marry her; that he loved her better than any other woman. She is an intelligent witness and admitted that she knew she was doing wrong, but said that she loved him. Solicitor General Howell and Col. Peeples spoke in behalf of the State, and lion. M. A. Candler and Col. Lester for the defense. The speeches were able and impressive. We noticed a number of divines present The court house was thronged. The case has excited a deep interest from the high character sustained by Mr. Wood for purity. The jury after an absence of one hour, returned a verdict of guilty. Notice was given of a motion that a new trial was refused and Mr. Wood was sentenced to the penitentiary for tw-enty years. A Grave Charge. At a meecting of the citizens of Mont gomery, held on Thursday, to do honor to the memory of the murdered Clanton, Col. Joseph Hodgson, formerly editor of the Mail and now State Superintend ent of Education, made a most eloquent address, from which the following is an extract: His very magnanimity of character was his death. He w-as willing in his magnanimity to treat one who proved an assassin as a man of honor. He met his death like the peerless hero he was. Gen. Clanton died in the cause of the State of Alabama. His life had been threatened again and again by the friends of the corporation against which he had been employed by the State. He was advised not to go to East Ten nessee. Ilis friends pleaded with him to avoid personal collisions. He had but one answer and that was the State had employed him to guard her inter ests, and no intimidation could move him from his purpose to go wherever the interests of the State demanded his presence. He was assassinated in cold blood. — All the ciroumstances of the tragedy point to a conspiracy of his death. The agent of the hostile corporation intro duces a notorious desperado. A quarrel is instantly sprung by the assassin. A gun is in convenient reach. A horse is ready. The deed is done, and the fall of Gen. James II Clanton under the weapons of the assassin the State of Alabama fell. The charge contained in this extract is of a grave nature, and one which we cannot but believe will be proved with out foundation. -Such an assassination is something too horrible even tor con templation." It would justify, if any thing ever does, the bloodiest retribu tion on every participant that vengeauce could devise. We hope the whole truth of this murder may be dragged to light, and if Col. Hodgson is right, that the assassin and his accomplices may atone for their infamy at the gallows within thirty days. — Macon Telegraph and Mess(njer. A Rich Little Girl. —Little Nelly L. had lost her father, and her mother was poor. Her sweet temper and her winning ways gained her many friends. Among them was an excellent lady, M iss N. A glimpse of Nelly’s bright face peeping in at the door always brought a 'smile of peculiar tenderness over 31 iss N.’s placid features. She loved to sit by the child, softly stroking her hair, and while looking thoughtfully into her smiling eyes, would often say, “ Poor Nelly 1” When Nelly shook her head, with a heart too happy to fore bode evil, her friend would caress her still more fondly, and then say, “ Poor little Nelly!” The child’s heart seemed troubled by these pitying words, for she asked one day, “ Whv do you call me poor —Please don’t 31 iss N. I am not poor —why, I've got twenty-live cents and a good mother ‘ u Rich little Nelly,” said her friend. — “ A good mother ? Ah 1 how long I was learning what this little one already knows!” “ A good mother ” —could any earthly treasure have made her so truly rich ? A parliamentary speaker lately re marked that innocence is like an um brella ; when once we have lost it we may never see it agaiu. How to Ih» Polito. ]>o not try too hard to be polite. Never overwhelm your friends bv begging them to make themselves at home, or they will soon wish they were there. Show by your actions rather than your words that you are glad to see them. Have enough regard for yourself to treatyour greatest enemy with quiet po liteness. All petty slights are merely meanness and hurt yourself more than any one else. ]>o not talk about yourself or your family to the exclusion of other topics. What if vou are clever and a little more so than other people, it may- not be that other folks will think so, whatever they ought to do. It may be interesting to you to talk over your ailments, but very tiresome fur others to listen to them. Make people think you consider them clever and agreeable and they will be pretty apt to have a pleasant impression of yourself. Treat people just as you would like to have them treat you. It is much easier to lose a good opin ion of people than to regain it; and when any one does not care for the good opinion of others, he or she is not wor thy of good respect. Do not excuse your house, furniture, or the table you set before your guests. It is fair to suppose their visits are to you, not your surroundings. The whole machinery of social intercourse is very' delicate and intricate, and it is oui bus ness to keep all places of possible fric tion well supplied with the oil of polite ness. The Course of True Love.—A Eureka, California, paper relates a re markable tale of love and constancy. — A young man in the East wished to marry the daughter of a prosperous merchant, but had no money with which to back bis suit He was, therefore, declined as a son-in-law, and so he went to the Pacific coast to seek his fortune. He sought gold everywhere, but found little; and at last, after several years of labor and hardship, determined to le flirn to his old home. 11c engaged his passage from San Francisco, when he encountered his early love, now nearly middle age, who, with her brother, had gone in quest of her old lover. Her pa rents and all her near relations had died, save her companion. She w r as wealthy, and only too happy to give her fortune, with her hand and heart, to the man who had struggled valiantly and failed to earn the meed of toil. The twain were wedded, and returned to the East with the dream of love as bright and fresh to them as it had been years be fore. If an editor omits anything, he is lazy. If he speaks of things as they •are, people are mad. If he glosses over —smoothes down the rough points —he is bribed. If he calls things by their proper names, he is unlit for position of an editor. If he does not furnish his readers with jokes, he is a mullet. *lf he does, he is a rattlehead. If he con demns the wrong, he is a good fellow; but lacks discretion. If he lets wrong and injuries go unmentioned, he is a coward. If he fails to uphold a public man, he docs it to gratify spite, is a tool of a clique, or belongs to the “outs.”— If he indulges in personalties, he is a black guard, if he docs not his paper is dull and inspired. Mr. Arthur Burdict, of Middle town, has one of the finest and most per fect collection of cents of the United States coinage in the country. lie has been fourteen years picking them up, and has got them nearly all in trade. They extend from 1793 to 1871, inclu sive, and there is not an imperfect date among them.
