General Assembly at its last session, ample and
wise in its provisions, except the salary OF the
Geologis,;--,he bill was approved by Governor
Smith, it being pet measure of this most ex-
celent Chief Executive and now Professor
Geo. Little, of the University Of Mississippi,
has been appointed State Geelogist and has &C.
cepted the position and will soon enter upon
the duties of his office. Now, many are claim

State welded his mighty influence to secure

passed the bill and it is honor enough to say it
was his work, but unlike many who propose
and introduce wise measures he labored with
assiduity and ability until it was passed. The
good which will result to the whole State can
only be realized when emonstrated-when
Georgians are taught the immensely Of their

The Cant of Impossors.

II is so obvious that physical and constitu.
tional vigor is the defense against disease, that
even the vendors of drastic purgatives advertise
them as tonics stomachics and invigorants, in
the hope of enlsting the confidence of the pub
lie in the devitalizing and pernicious potions.
1t is amusing to note how these impostors imi-
tate and copy the language in which the nIedi
cnal properties Of Hostetterss Stomach Bitters
are described. Although the effect of their
rasping evacuants is to destroy the tone OF the
digestive organs and the bowels, and TO rob the
system of its vital strength, they are nnscrnpu-
lousy recommended to the weak and PROSTATE
victims of disease as stimulants tits time this

Such mischievious falsehoods should be expos

tiers, be it distinctly understood, is a stmulant.
1t has spirituous basis, and that basis is the
vehicle which diffuses its wonderful sanitary
principles through every part of the system.
The tonic, Alternative and regulating ingredients
of the Btters would be comparatively inert If
they were not, so to speak, carried to the locali
ties where they are required by the stimulating
agent. The cant which protests againstthe use
of pure alcoholic fluid, when employed as a
means Of giving full effect to medicinal extracts
of the highest utility, is the cant of charlatanism.

IrregnIsr Marriages

TIE verdict given ID New York in what ia
called the Brinckley case illustrates the grow
ing te1dCncy of juries, aud judges as well, to
validate counterfeit Darrisg =, or any assocIl-
lion or agreement that can be construed a.
marriage. In tais case man OF fortune aud
social position was declared TO be legally mar
Tied to a woman OF notoriously bad character,
solely upon her own evidence. The Judy re IVAN
BrGLt) expressly told the jury that unless they
believed that the parties went through q solemn
form OF agreement to marry on the 14th of
June, 1864, the plaintiff hsi no case. The
women swore they did, the man swors they did
not. The other facts in the case were disre-
garded; the witnesses who swore to the vicious
life OF the plaintiff, from personal knowledge
and from common repute, were wholly disre-
gsrded by the court; was the testimony that
she had visited houses of Il-repute with Brinck
ley before the pretended date OF marril age.
The case was decided by the jury on the charge
Of the judge relative TO the secret marriage OF
Brinckley and the plaintif-solus cum sola-of
which there was not the slightest evidence ex-
cept her oath, cOntrsGicted by his. The Judge
said that if BriuckIey intended TO make the
WOMAN believe this agreement was a marriage,
it waso1e, even if he had no intention to marry
her.
This ruling and verdict would seem - be
righteous enough If dealing with the professional
Hbertine In his warfare upon unsuspic;ous ipno-
cence, but the difficulty that the prscticed
is too wary TO be caught in the ENHANCEMENT of
counterfeit marriage, and the recognition of
such agreements on the testimony of one
party only would serve to enable designing
women of bad character to entrap unsophisti-
Gated youth.
AS the decision is to be appealed, however, it
is too scon to put it down as established law
and precedent.
