WORDS OF TRUTH.

An Independent man is one who
blacks his own boots, who can live
without tobacco end whiskey, earns
at least dime more than he spends,
and who can upon a pinch, shave
himself with brown soap and cold
water without mirror. A great
man is one who can lead his children
to obey him when out of sight. A
hospitable man is never ashamed Of
his dinner when friend unexpect-
edly drops in to dine with him. A
good wife exhibits her love for her
husband by seeking to promote his
welfare, and by administering to his
comforts, A sensible wife looks for
her enjoyment at home-a silly one,
abroad. A wise girl would win a
lover by practicing those virtues
| which secure admiration wheI per-
sonal charms have faded. A simple
girl endeayors to recommend her
self by the exhibition of frivolous &C
comblishments, and by mawkisi
sentiment which has as little to DE-
with a true heart as has the gaudj
dress she wears. A good girl Away
respects herself, and is thus sure b
be respected by others.

RELIGIOUS services commenced at the Ma
ristta Camp-ground yesterday and will embrace
next Sunday in its continuation.
CONDUCTOR David Crawford had his foot
cut off near Kingston. last Saturday, BY a
fl eight train. f 81
PERsoNAL.-Mr. John Rigsby and Mr.. G..
j. Gable formerly citizens Of this place. but
now of Augusta, are summering in the city.
WE have been placed under obligation to
Mr.. D. A, King, of this county, by the presen-
tation Of very fine apple oflarge growth.
PROF. NICHOLS dancing academy is largely
attended this season. He is skillfnl and
beautiful dancer himself and imparts instruc-
ton to his pupils with ike effect.
WE have been shown handsome and ele-
gantlv finished pony PhRton at H. Reid's shop
made for Col. Waddell. Our friend Matthews
done the painting The workmanship is very
fine.
RUNAWAY AcoIDENT.-WhileM Mrs. Julia
Butler, daughter Of Judge Irwin. was out driv-
ing last Thursday evening week, on Powder
Springs road. the horse became frightened and
runaway, throwing Mrs. b. out of the buggy
and hurting her badly.
SOME young ladies became frightened Fri
day night at the inebriated caprices OF Wash
ington Nash. Tbs result was, one of the ladies
in irving to @make time lost time-that is she
dropped her watch and broke it. Another
young lady in her flight lost one Of her curls.
THE prevailing fashion among the ladies OF
wearing their hair "top knot style isnot with.
out its mishaps. For young lady to leave
church and not miss her jaunty hat until she
reaches home, makes us feel like asking the
question, ewhat's the use of a hat when you
can't tell whether its on or off.
A CORRESPONDENT of Harpers' Bazaar writes
that the ott-quoted line, Though lost to sight
to memory dear" originated with Ruthven
Jenkyns, and was first published in the Green
witch Magazine for Marines, in 1701 and 1902.
AS literary curiosity we quote the whole
poem
Sweetheart, good bye! the futtering sail
Is spread to waft me far from thee,
And soon before the fav'ring gale
My ship shall bound upon the sea.
Perchance, all desola'e and forlorn,
These eyes shall miss thee many year,
But unforgotten every charm,
Though lost to sight, to memr'y dear.
Sweetheart goodbye one last embrace
o, cruel Fate true souls to sever!
Yet in this hearts most sacsed place
Thou, thou alone shalt dwell for ever!
And still snail recollection trace
In Fancy's mirror, ever near,
Each smile, each tear. that form, that face,
Though lost TO sight, to mem'ry dear"
ONE Of the chief characteristics OF the Afri-
can race since their freedom is to engage in
profound discussion of Biblical truths. That
which has puzzled erudite divines, commenta-
tors, and philosophers, for years, is often solv-
ed in day by these intelligent 18th amend
ments For instance, two Marietta darkies,
the other day were displaying their Biblical
lore with familiarity unprecedented, when
one of the mokes said: ''Sah, dar for one time
you be mistaken. Pm sartin Mary Magazine
did repent" He doubtless meant Magdaene.
