A JUST JUDGE.-The Legislature of Geor-
gia having passed bill increasing the salaries
of judges, most of them have resigned and
been appointed, this course being necessary
in order to evade the constitutional provision
forbidding increase of compensation while in
office. Judge Warner, of the Supreme Court,
however, declined to do this, and writes: eff,
by this cunningly devised process of resigning
and re-sppointnent, with the intention and
for the purpose Of being continued in office at
an increased salary, the people of the State
quite certain that 1 cannot deceive myself in
regard to it. Whenever those in authority,
whose sworn duty it is to administer and exc
cute the lava of the State, violate them, either
in letter or spirit, to promote their own indi-
vidual interests, there will always be found
many apt scholars in every community who
will not be slow to initiate their example"

OSE WAY OF IMPROVING LAND.-It per-
haps has occurred to but few farmers to employ
the rowing herds of summer at manure making.
1t may be done thus.
Select spot adjoining an outside fence and
enclose it well on the three remaining Sides
Haul leaves from the woods, muck from ponds
or swaalps, or anything that will rot into a
good manure in ten or twelve months, and
spread over this lot three or four inches deep.
If there are not several trees in this lot, make
shelters for shade by placing poles upon forks,
putting a floor of rails across these polcs and
cover thickly with pine-tags Enclose large
pieces Of ground and put alum salt in boxes
having a hole i'll their tops sufficiently large
for cattle to get their tongues in conveniently.
Place these boxes firmly upon posts about over
the lot. Make gap in the outside fence that
everybody's cattle that come along may walk
in. AS soon as they find out the salt this lot
will become grand congregating place for all
the cattle of the ricinity-a perfect camp
ground of the bovine species. They will make
the shelters their resting places by day and by
night, and will continue SO long as the supply
of salt holds out. OF course they will drop
their manure here. and by winter you will have
the satisfaction of owning at least one lot that
has been well manurcd at slight cost. So long
as cattle run at large, somebody ought to have
the advantage Of the manure, if they can get

AS TO Low DREssEs-Most fashions owe
their origin to an attempt to give prominence
to the strong point OF hide the weak point of a
king or queen Thus powder came into vogue
to conceal a queens gray hair, and large pc
rukes because king was bald. We learn,
however, from Belgian paper, that the Gus
tom of ladies exhibiting their busts in all the
beauty of nature has far more romantic ORR
gin. In battle in which the French were en-
gagged (all dates, we may mention, are in re-
serve their ranks were broken, and they were
routed. When they retreated their women
barred their breasts and entreated them to pierce
them rather than permit them to fall into the
hands of the enemy. This was too much for
the gallant Gauls. Nerved with fresh courage
they turned, renewed the combat and were VIC
torious. From that hour French women have
on festal occasions always been accustomed to
wear their dresses low. In fact, when you see
one who appears to have forgotten the upper
part of her dress, it is no proof of indelicacy,
but simply an indication of the power of ma
tional sentiment This satisfactorily explains
what many ignorant people have taken for i'm
propriety. We live and learn.

SUCCESS IN L1FE.-Takc earnestly hold of
life, as capacitated for and destined to high
and noble purpose. Study closely the minds
'' it As seady neTer looking baei & to i the
turning furrow, but forward to the ground that
ever remains to be broken. Means and ways
are abundant to every mars success, if will
and action are rightly adapted to them. Our
rich men and our great men have carved their
paths to fortune, and by this internal principle
"a principle that cannot fail to reward him
who resolutcly pursucs it. TO sigh or repine
over the luck Of inheritance is unmanly. Every
man should strive to be creator instead of in
hcritor. He should be conscious of the power
in him, and fight his own battles with his own
lance. He should feel that it is better to earn
a crust than to inherit Golfers of gold When
once this spirit of sc!f-relance is learned, every
man will discover within himself the element;
and capacities of wealth. He will be rich in
self-resourccs, and can lift his head proudly to
meet the noblest among men,.

is, I trust, close at hand when this grand and
perfect consummation will be effected by uni

participated, and remove the last pretext for
hostility against Government whose magma

SINGULAR FUNERAL CUsToMs.-A CORES
nondent of the Milwaukee Sentinel writes as
follows from Munich, in Bavaria:
There is one feature or custom in Munich, III
reference to the burial of the dead, which |
think is not generally known abroad. 1t is en-
tirely municipal regulation and worthy of
being copied by other countries. The city IS
divided off into districts, and proper persons
are appointed, of both sexes, to take charge OF
all persons who die within their districts. So
soon as person dies, written report of all the
circumstances has to be filed by the physician
with the police, and notice is then given to the
person having in charge that particular district
This person Immediately calls at the house
where the dead lies, and makes all necessary
arrangements for the funeral. If the deceased
is female, lady has the charge; If male,
then gentleman The persons selected are
people amply competent in every respect, and
with proper regard for sympathy, gentlencss
and kindness. The friends of the deceas ed
have nothing to do with the funeral or burial,
as everything is entirely taken off their hands.
The funerals are divided into three classes, the
/ rich, the moderately wealthy, and the poor. To
each class there is a tariff of expenses. After
the funeral the bill, which is very moderate
and reasonable, is presented to the nearest rel
ative. These rules apply to stranger and clti-
"A At the cemeteries, called the kreheAqt, is
chapel, and in appropriate rooms adjoining the
dead are received, where in open coffins they
are obliged to lie three days before interment.
In front of these rooms is an open gallery where
the public can at all aimes go, and through the
large windows see the dead within. Nopeople
in the world pay more attention to the dead
than the Germans Indeed, so far do they go
that death is almost "robbed of its sting and
the grave of its victory" The corpse is so
laid out that it resembles life, and when it is
left at the house of the dead it is literally en-
powered with flowers. have seen half dozen
children grouped together, and all looking like
beautiful young beings in health, sleeping in
bowers of flowers.

A HORRIBLE TEXAN CHAPTER.-I tele-
graph some time ago reported briefly the results
of an unhappy affray in Ell Paso, Texas, in
which two gentlemen of high position lost
their lives. On the 7th of December slight
misunderstanding between the Hon. A. j..
Fountain, State Senator and B. F. Williams, a
lawyer, eliminated in the affray which resulted
so seriously. Fountain and Williams meeting
in saloon in the morning. the former remon-
strated mildly with Williams for some intcm-
perate assertions made against himself and
friends. Williams resented this, and instantly
drew a revolver upon Fountain, who stood be-
fore him completely unarmed. Two shots were
fired by Williams one grazing Fountains tenn
pie and the other wounding his left arm, passed
through package of letters in the breast
pocket of his coat, and lodged against the case
of his watch. There were several persons pres
ent and in the immediate vicinity, and to them
Mr. Fountain called out "Arrest that man !;
he has shot me!''
The assassin however fcd and gaining his
room-a block or two of-locked himself in
and refused to be arrested. The Hon. Gaylord
Clarke, Judge of the Twenty-ffth District, who
was in the vicinity, ut once summoned ass!s-
tance and ordered the door beaten down. The
work was begun when Williams threw aside
the fastenings and lu h,d into the street frantic
with rage, 10. as asserted temporary insanity
armed with a double-barreled shotgun, charged
at the pillar wke-e the Judge stood, who lodged
around apd back twice /; when the Judge came
in contact with the muzzle of his gun Williams
fired instantly, shooting the Judge through the
heart He expired almost instantly. The
murderer turncd in species of insane fury on
the crowd and leveled his gun at the Chief of
Police, who, however, anticipated him, and at
once shot him through the heart.

PAY THE SMALL BILLs.--With the opening
of the year all small bills should be promptly
paid. The men to whom they are due general
ly need the money. The little bills arc the

The New York Tribune has been summing

- The New York Tribune has been summing
up the gains Of the last year, and gives as a
result that "we are increasing in wealth and
productive capacity alta rate unparalleled by any
other country, whether of the Old or New
World" 1t finds that our population increased
at least one million during 1870, but one-fourth
of this increase is the result of immigration,
leaving the remaining three-fourths to be ac-
counted for by the excess of births over deaths.
Our agriculture was very productive, and its
gains over 1869 in value were very considera-
Die. The gold and silver returns of the mines
were over sixty millions and in the same pc
riod numerous new mines were opened, but
they will not in many instances show notable
results until this present year. A source of
general congratuation is the approach of our
national currency to gold value while in 1869
it was 20 per cent. below it is now scarcely
above 10 per cent and there is no reason why
during 1871 it should not reach the standard of
coin. A remarkable feature of the year just
closed was the construction of over 10000 miles
of railroad in the United States, at cost Of
not less than $300,000000.
