E BIsHoP PIERCE TO REMAIN IN GEORGIA.
The Sparta Georgian gives. the following in
formation which will be gratifying 10 every
Georgian who has enjoyed the privilege of an
acquaintance with the brilliant and excellent
man to whom it relates. 1t will be recollect-
ed that extraordinary inducements were offered
the Bishop, some months ago, to take up his
abode at Memphis, and it was generally be-
lieved that he would accept them, from con-
siderations of convenience TO his field of &c
clesiastical labor:
ave are truly gratifed to be able to state
that Bishop Pierce had determined to remain
at Sunshine, his present residence in this coun-
ty The people of Hancock, we doubt not,
will duly appreciate this choice of their long
tried friend, when other situations have been
offered him, combining superior advantages
in several respects. In one respect, we have
the greatest advantage, long tried and endur-
ing friendship, and associations, toAich 100 hope
no rude blast toiit ereT SeUer."

We are led to believe, not only from the above,
but from many other and similar ports, well as
much information derived through others, who have
thorough practical knowledge in the of three
four of the most prominent kinds, that no Shut

the same, can possibly be well adapted TO gene
raj family use paricul Tly for the South. as the

We most cheeTfully concur in the opinion OF the
above. After examination of seVtrI OF the
prominent kinds before the public, We were sati,-
fed to become purchaser of the Grover & Baker

Machine hovice,-it ,rforms ali and
even more than is claimed for it in the work of a

Commodore Paulding and Captain Chatard

er can get as handsome reception as Gen.
Walker did:
Dinner TO Gen. Walker.-One of the most
enthusiastic and respectable assemblages that
ever met TO greet, cOuntenance, and encourage
q distinguished man, met at the festive board
last evening at the American Hotel. States
men were there, and legislators, members of
the bar and other learned professions, officers
of the militia and men of worth in civil life,
all anxious to honor one whom they regard as
q true repre- sentative of Southern interests,
and whom they believe to have been most foul
ly dealt with-tO honor, in word, General
VIM. Walker, the hero of Central America,
the founder in that tropical region of Ameri-
can Institutions.
On his name being toasted, the General
made most powerful speech, in which he
gave a thrilling history Of lis career, and in
which he reviewed the action of our Govern
ment toward him.
Mr.. Amber, of the Senate, presided. There
were present Senators Douglas, Claiborne,
Coghill, Deneale .and others, and from the
House of Delegates, Gen. Chapman, Mr..
Hoge, Mr.. Seldom, &c.

The Female DipIom aiist I'm Washington

Among the institutions of Washington is a class
of female "diplomatiss, ntriguers. politicians +"
or "ofice beggars," as you may please to style
them, which, as a class, cannot be paraleled in the
world These women generally strong minded
in the fullest Of the term. No little feminine
scruples among them; no blush of modesty ever
comes between them and success. but they "go in
to win," on the principle that when woman will
she will"
A few days ago one of these Amazons arrived
here, to secure a position for her son, who seemed
TO inherit all the feminine traits which his mother
lacked. True to the principles of her class she
went 10 work. II she caught glimpse of Cabinet
officer, she hailed him; II she met Senator she
button holed him; and II she came in contact with
poor "member" only, she collared him. All were
alike attacked, and had TO suffer the infection of
woman's tongue for bali hour at least. Heavens,
what misery Even the President not SAFE
and rumor has it that the war was carried into his
sanctum, and that the statesman of half century
had to quail before the modern Aantippe. At Last,
in the course OF events, she met a disting uished
S nator from a New England State, who has
tongue of his own and knows how 10 use it. Her
battery was at once opened. Round shot, bombs
shells, canister, sugs. grape aud ''B b" were
poured in:o the dgnitary without mercy, and with
out even a pause for breath. When she had liter
rally "gi'n out" as Sam Slick would say, the Senat-
or asked her ii her with her.
Sue replied by calling Spooney to her, who came
like "Squeers" boy tor his "mOlasses and Grim
stone," aud was duly presented.
''Is this the young whom you want appoint
edi" asked the Senator.
"Yes, SIR" the mother replied; land obi sir
he Is his heart upon it, and il will be a great
dss pointment, aud hope"
BEG plrdon, madam; but did you say you want
ed him TO enter the army!"
Eyes, cir, the dragons, if you please"
"Well, madam. ID influence Is not great but
viii endeavor to serve you, II you will adopt a
suggestion Of mine"
'ohl with pleasure, sir; you very kind"
"Then, madam, from what / see OF yourself and
son, allow me TO recommend that you apply foe the
commission in the Dragons, aud that your son be
sent back 10 serve with the home infautry. am
sure the county would gain by the change"
Xandppe gloSed and sselled, but before she id
tune to expioie, the Senator was gone.-Peaasy!-
