JoKING IN LaWs.-Some years
ago there was a bill introduced
into the Georgia Legislature to lay
a tax of ten dollars a year on all
jackasses. Some appreciative
member proposed to amend it so
as to include lawyers and doctors.
The amendment was accepted,
and, amidstmuch jocularity, the
bill passed. Several efforts have
been made to repealit, but in vain,
and to this day all jackasses, law
yers and doctors, are obliged to
pay a yearly tax of ten dollars.

AsUeGESTIvE VALENTINE"

on wretch without tear-without thought,
Save Joy above the ruin thou hast wrought
The time shall come, nor long remote when thou
shall feel far more than thou inhictest now
Feel for thy vile self Flowing self in vain,
And turn the bowling in unpitied pain,
NAV the strong curse Of crush'd affections light
Back on thy bosom with reflected blight
And make thee in thy loprosy Of mind
As loathsome to thyself as to mankind
Till all thy self thoughts curdle into hate,
Black-as thy will for others would create;
Till thy hard heart be calcined into dust.
Aud thy soul welter in its hideous crust.
Oh may thy grave be sleepless US the bed
The widow'd couch Of lire, that thou hast spread
Then, when thou fain would weary heaven with
prayer,
Look on thy earthly victims--and despair

~ Three men, Getz, Olem and Case, were
yesterday arrested in COvington, as the
murderers, few evenings since. of James
Hughes, clerk in the coal office of r. B.
Smith q Co., on Central Avenue.
1t will be recollected that the young man
was murdered between six and seven o'clock
in the evening, while leisurely riding to his
home in Green Township, in his buggy.
Since the affair happened the whole affair
has been wrapped up in mystery, from the
fact that Mr.. Hughes was not robbed at the
time, and detectives have been on the qiti
Uice to ferret out the murderers.
The villains, it is said, confessed their
guilt.
