The ATLANTA suN.-This paper, edited
by that illustrious statesman, the Hon. Alex
ander II. Stephens. is one of our most valuss
able and acceptable exchanges. The Sun has
been sowing the good seed of truth, and it has
already brought forth good fruit.
Hon. Alexander H. Stephens, the Editor-
mischief, has specially arranged his business
so as to devote almost his entire time to the
political department. of the Sun, during the
coming spring and summer, and to the end of
the Presidential election
If any of our patrons wish to secure one of
the ablest political papers of the day, we adj
wise them to subscribe for the atlanta Sun.

RUMoR.-Here is rumor from the
Staunton Spectator. We give it for what it
is worth
at is rumored-with what truth we cannot
say-that Gen. Malone, finding himself flank
ed by Mr.. Scott, has entered into some friend
" arrangement with that gentleman, by which
MIR. Scott has acquired commanding interest
in the operations of the Lynchburg & Tennes-
see Road. If such be the fact, we think it
moret than probable that before long the Shen-
andoah Valley Railroad, which is said to be
under contract from the Potomac to Front
Royal, will be extended up the Valley to
Salem, thereby giving the Pennsylvania Cen,
trail Railroad unbroken line of railway from
Philadelphia to Memphis, aud leaving Balti-

DE Hocus PooUs KNOCKED IN DE HEAD.
As lady friend of ours, while engaged in a
conversation on incidents of the war few
evenings since, related to us the following
humorous incident, which occurred in the
!neighborhood of Bowman's Mills, in Rocking
: nam county, Va; she being resident of that
' Vicinity at the time of the occurrence -
An old negro man by the name of Sampson
had son named Elias, who was ashoemaker,
and. all the able>bodied white men having en-
listed in the army, Elias was about the only
Knight of st. Crispin for radius of some
miles. and was, therefore, the sole dependence
of the neighbors.
= Now it happened that Capt. Shoup, of the
9TH Va. Cavalry, wanted cook, and must
. needs take Elias with him into camp. This
was not only serious loss to the community,
but was heavy blow to old Sampson, who
dreaded the idea of his son being taken where
he might happen to hear the bullets deadly
whistle.
sampson wanted Elias at home, and the
nelghbors wanted him there also, so Mr.. Bow
an,Sthe magistrate of the district, having oc
caslon to visit Harrisonburg, Sampson deter
mined to secure his services in an endeavor
to get Elias off by civil process, if possible,
and the Squire accepted the commission
While in Harrisonburg, Mr. b. cnqured into
= the matter and found that the writ of habeas
corpus had been suspended by the Confederate
Government, and farther effort would be use
less
Returning home in the afternoon, one of
the first objects that met his eye was the dusky
F.. form of old Sampson. standing in the road ,
with an anxious expression upon his countc>
nance, waiting to hear the news. Approach
ing Mr.. b Sampson asked him if his son
would be released aud allowed to return home
Mr. B. replied that the writ of AnJeas
corpus had been suspended, and that nothing
could be done in the matter, which piece of
information was received by Sampson with
silent awe.
Shortly after this interview, neighbor met
Sampson. and epqnired,
"Well, Uncle Sampson, have you seen Mr.
Bowman
Eyes. Massa."
"Then | suppose Elias will get off? ~
Sampson, with the most serious expression
of his countenance, replied mo, bless your
soul, chile; de hocus pocus all done knock ed
In de head, aud poor Elias won't git home any
MORE"

It is a general complaint among for,

serious trouble because there are so many.
Indeed, they have become so frequent,
and so boisterously are they celebrated,
that serious attention is given to reduc-
Ing the number. TIE Russians have sew
eral national holidays, and the Greek
church has large number more. But
the trouble is not in keeping these.
Every good Russian is named after some
saint, and that saints day becomes fes

a man marrles he has to aid in celebrat-

these days follow in so quick succession
