A. H. STEPHENS, who has arrived
at Milledgeville, Georgia, signifies his
consent to accept the nomination Of
Governor. Inasmuch us Ex-Governor
Brown has declined to have his name
go before the Convention, 1t Is possible
that the rebel eX-vice-President will
become the first cIvilGovernor of Geor-
gia. His release mt this time, doubtless
has something to do with the matter.

From the New York Posts
The western cities, where they burn
bituminous coal, arc becoming almost
uninhhbitable by reason Of the dense
and filthy smut, which soils owe
rything, penetrltes everywhere, makes
housekeeping a burden, Bpoils the com.
plexiOn or the ladies, makes little cliil.
dren plnRue TO neat mothers, makes Il
impossible 10 wear white clothing, gives
the outside walls of houses dirty and
disgusting appearance, and hides the
clear blue sky by a dense and filthy
cloud ofsmoke. 1 90 I1 hn6Gl
Within the last eight years thiBplRgue
OF COal-smoke has entirely changed the
appearance Of Cincinnati; :. II wasnnee
cheerful, bright, clean.looking city; II
is now dirty, gloomy, unpleasant Ens-
tern people, unused TO the peculiar
gloom produced by tho great cloud OF
bltuminous smoke, fancy II is continue
ally on the point Of raining. Riding on
the cars out Of the city the traveller
finds HIMSELF when Eve or six miles
out, emerging nom this gloon, and 10
bis surprise dlscovGfB that what he
ihOughEt0 ibe lowering slEy was only
The prodnGt, or rather waBte3 Of nmnofs
op5 factories und Of great city's un-l
consumed coal-anOke. s.,T7.ie
Now there b no ueed for all this. II
ls very well known that atsmOkp d only
unGonsumed Orwnsted f(Igl; II Is the re-.
suit Of imperfect combustion. In Eng
land contTiVancO Is now In use by
which this waste Is prevented and the
smoke Is consumed. II Is not so gener-
ally used as 1t ought to be, but that Is
probably because the plan is imperfect
or not OF eIisy application. Yankee In
ventlve genius has u fair opening here.
The man who cOntrives n method Of
cheap md eAsy application, by which
not only factories but private persons
can arrange their fires 30 rs 10 consume
the smoke, will mako u fortune by his |
Invention. The evil has reached that
pitch now, that city governments will
not hesitate to make compulsory the
use of any proper means. Tho mere
wear Of clothing, carpets and furniture,
which could be saved by such means, |
would abundantly repay any reason |
able outlay, not 10 speak Of the saving |
TO health. Many persons OF delicate |
now find It impossible to 4
live in Cincinnati, Pittsburgh and other |
western cities similarly affected. ulrr,l
What Is required is a cheap and sim
pie apparatus, which may be applied to |
any grate or fireplace, and will not |
readily get out Of order. The inventor
ofsuch Oontrivanee would be a public |
and would be sure Of a
handsome fortune. ..raI

is freely at your disposal, to clear off old
scores for the year, provided you will
accept this little book as New Year s
gift, and use it twelve months as have
done, and if at the end of that time you
are not ready to introduce me to Mrs.
Sandford, l am much mistaken"
Ben grasped his friends hand, but just
then the entrance of Mrs Meriden pre-
vented his reply. Mark, however, saw
with satisfaction, that he put the book
carefully in his vest pocket, and buttoned
up his coat with the air of man button
ing up a new resolution.
When they parted for the night Mark
said with a smile, "In case of bilious
attachs, you know where to send for
medicine" Ben answered only by a fer
vent grasp of the hand for his throat felt
too full for him to answer.
Mark Meriden's book answered the
purpose admirably. In less than two
years Ben Sandford was the most popu-
lar lawyer in -, and as steady a
householder as you might wish to see
and, in conclusion, as this is a ladys'
story, We will just ask our lady readers
their opinion on one point, and it is this
If Mrs. Meriden had been a woman
who understood what is called Catching
a beau," better than securing husband
if she had never curled her hair except
for company, and thought it degrade,
ton to know how to make her house
comfortable, would these things have
happened?

"Why ! thought you only meant,

Yet you seem on death intent
Have you stole my heart to break it
"Wherefore speak Of death at all;
