Clarke, tbe hatter, says he will give any delegate on a visit to the Gate City a free pass over any rail road. * 8-3 Solicitor of thia Clrcnit. From the Sunday Gazette. The Legislature that is to assemble this fall should be composed of the best men in the Democratic party. Under the new con stitution the duty of electing judges at d solicitors has been placed on them, and taken away from the Governor. It is im po.taut that the prosecuting officers of the State should be men of integrity, ability and fairness. In this circuit we learn Capt. John Milledge will be a candidate for the Solicitor Generalship, and it gives us pleas me to bear testimony to his sterling worth as a man, a citizen and a lawyer. His ser vices to his State in the late unpleasantness was distinguished by patriotism wot thy of bis distinguished ancestry, and by gallantry on many a hard fought battlefield, Since then bis ability as a lawyer has been recog nized by his brethren throughout the State. In the administration of tbe onerous duties of Recorder of this city he has been a terror to evil doers, and crime has steadily de creased. Atlanta owes it mainly to his ef forts that she has so vigilant a police force, for to him isdne the credit of reorganizing it and putting it in effective shape. If he is elected Solicitor of this circuit Atlanta will be able to boast of one of the best officers that is in this or any other State. His time, energy and talents will be devoted to the prosecution of the duties of his c tfice. DISSOLUTION.

The germ of a novel is contained in events that occurred in a Russian towns Twenty years ago, a church orgnnisn stole the priest’s pistol, shot and robbed a farmer, replaced the weapon in the sacristy, confessed the crime to the priest, whose lips were thus sealed upon the subject, and then denounced him as the robber and assassin. The unfortu nate ecclesiastic, vainly protested his in nocence, was sentenced to hard labor for life. The organist on his death-bed con fessed this crime, but when steps were taken to secure the liberation of the in nocent sufferer it was found that he had been dead for several months. This real-life tragedy fairly tames'the real life comedy of the fine young English gentleman who, having been arrested for robbing a postoflice, married the postmistress, the sole witness against him, who was thus precluded from testi fyini* against her husband. Among the relics in the office of the Police Board in Cleveland, Ohio, is a rope that has hanged eighteen culprits. It is of hemp, three-fourths of an inch in thickness, and is strengthened by ■ braiding a small tarred strand of hemp in the crevices left by the larger strands. BTATE POLITICAL NOTES. The Colquitt men in Oglethorpe county are turning over to Lester. The Columbus Times advocates Hon. Peterson Thweatt for Comp troller General. There are frequent hints that Hon. H. D. McDaniel will be the dark horse in the gubernatorial race. The Athens Banner gives Hon. A. 0. Bacon a capital boom for United States Senator in place of Gen. Gordon. The Rome Tribune “notices a dis position to work up a boom for the editor of the Courier for Congress. The white voters of Crawford county will vote direct on the 4th Saturday in August for candidates for the Legislature. Concluding a notice of Col. Har deman’s address at Butler, the But ler Herald says : “Whether or not Col. Hardeman shall receive the reward to which thousands of our people believe he is justly entitled, his eloquent ap peal for peace and harmony will never be forgotten by those who were present, while the man him self will live in the affections of our people for his loftly patriotism, his purity of character and'the un affected goodness of his heart.” The Berrien County News is for: Any good man—any capable man —to beat Colquitt. That’s our position. But if he is nominated, we must make the best we can out of a bad bargain. The Valdosta Times puts this question: Did you ever notice what desper ate attempts men who are in office, under accusations, make to remain in when their masters, the people, try to call them to account? See the national Republican party, and then look nearer home! TELEGRAPHIC SUMMARY. Paris had a flood last week. Gladstone has congestion of the lung. • Shocks of earthquake continue at Smyrma. R. L.

During Louis Philippe’s reign and the four following years, attempts were made upon the life of Queen Victoria by Oxford, in 1840, and by a workman named Francis in 1842; upon the King of Prussia, Frederick William IV., in 1844, and again in 1850; upon the pres ent Emperor of Germany, then military commander of Coblenz, in 1849; and upon Isabella, Queen of Spain, in 1852. None of these attempts succeeded. Ox ford, who shot at Queen Victoria while she was passing on Constitution , hill, was clearly a lunatic, and was confined to Bedlam as such. He remained there about twenty-five years, and while in confinement showed himself invariably rational, working industriously as a car penter, and expressing his deep remorse whenever he was questioned about what he termed his “ wicked piece of foolery.” Oxford is alive still, but he is residing out of England. Not so Francis, the carpenter, who as saulted the Queen in 1842, and made a large wale on her face. This man died shortly after he had been lodged in St. Luke’s Bethlehem. He was unquestion ably mad. Nevertheless, after this of fense, Parliament passed a bill enacting that flogging should be inflicted in the future upon any one seeking to inflict bodily harm upon the Queen, or to threaten her. It was by virtue of this act that the young fool O’Connor, who leveled a pistol at the Queen in 1869, was sentenced to be imprisoned for a year, and to receive twenty strokes with a birch. The Queen kindly remitted the whole punishment, and caused the boy to be supplied with funds that he might t migrate to Australia. But, with in less than a year after he hail been shipped off to Southampton, O’Connor returned to England, and was found prowling within the precincts of Buck ingham Palace at night, evidently with evil intent. This time he was certified to be out of his mind, and was sent to an asylum, where he remained under treatment four years. He is believed now to be in New Zealand. — Cornhill.

There is a tale told of a sea Captain who, in a distant corner of the southern seas, visited an undiscovered or unex plored group of beautiful islands. After landing and trading with the gentle natives, he was astonished by the visit of a white man, evidently a person of means and consequence, who, after making himself very agreeable, implored the Captain to give him a story-book, if he had such a thing in his possession. The Captain had, and, deeply touched by the pigs and cocoanuts which the white exile had given him, bestowed on him a copy of the “Arabian Nights Entertain ments.” Overcome by the present, the exile burst into tears, and cried, “You have saved my life, and given me rank and wealth.” On explanation, he said, “I should long ago have been eaten, but while they were fattening me I learned enough of their language to tell a child the story of ‘Little Red Riding Hood.’ The child repeated it, and the whole population were mad with joy. They hail never heard a story before. From that day I became a great and honored man. When they had a national festival I sat on top of a hill, and thousands wept (while some elderly relative was being cooked for a feast) at the cruel death of the grandmother as caused by the wicked wolf. I had with me a vol ume of ‘Fairy Tales,’ and I soon began to set a price on my performances. ‘Red Riding Hixxl’ is rather worn; I only get a hundred cocoanuts for her now; but ‘Cinderella’ is still good for four pigs and a turtle, and ‘Beauty and the Beast’ blings six or seven, according to the quality. But with the ‘Arabian Nights’ 1 shall be able to go on accumulating pork to the end of my days.” I am warm —fan me with a few old hats and let me dye—them. Bussey.
