THE Aldine for December comes to
us in good time, aud as usual freighted
with all the good things of art and lit
erature. This being the holiday or
Christmas number Of the year, it need
scarcely be said that pictorially it fills
the very sense of satisfaction. Four
pictures of the seasons, "spring,"
summer" "autumn" and "winter,n
each with verse of illustration, pre-
sent at once some of the mostpreg-
nant designing and the finest en-
craving and printing, to be found even
in this high-class publication. The
"Old Mill in the Jura Mountains" af-
ter G. Il. Duboise, young American
artist of great promise, has world of
rugged strength and design, blended
with careful and elaborate detail. Two
charming pictures appropriate for the
season, "Winter Pastimes," and 1.-THE

SOUTHERN COLORED METHODIsTs.
The Bonham News says:

The Bonham News says:
Alfred Aston, a presiding elder of
thecolored Methodist Episcopal church
south, passed through here yesterday
on his way home to Sulphur Springs
from the annual conference at Sher-
man. He informs US that this church,
though organized only four years ago,
has u membership of nearly one hun
dred thousand, with five hundred and
eighty-seven circuit riders, and six
hundred and thirty-six local preachers.
This organization, he says, is much
the strongest of any among the col
ored population of the south, aud bids
fair, ina short time, to entirely absorb
the semi-political branch of the north
ern church, which has been founded
and fostered with 50 much care by en-
issaries from that section. Aston
gave some amusing instances of the
discrepancy between the preaching
and the practice of these carpetbaggers
and expressed his opinion that their
delusive promises of "forty acres and II
mule" would never again control the
religion or politics of his race.
The above significant paragraph
sounds the key note of the future course
of the colored people of the south. A
few years will etfectually ALLEVIATE them
from polltico-religionists, and assimi-
late, in greater or less degree, to the
general, moral and political tone of the
great body of southern whites-that Is,
as the whites do, they will divide
among different churches and parties
as INCLINATION and surroundings may
dictate, independent Of the carpetb ag
Adventures who heretofore misled
them for selfish purposes.

bard's speech in Atlanta, Ga.
Our state is great also, and we expect
sooner. or later to become u great man
ufacturing state. We, too, have iron
and coal, and cotton, but perhaps a
quarter of century will pass before
we can realize what is now within
your grasp. 1t is with this view partly
that we have visited you. We desire
to urge the men of Georgia, and Ala
bama and Mississippi, to bring that
influence to bear upon congress,
through their representatives, as shall
induce the government to indorse the
bonds of this Texas and Pacific rail-
road, to insure its speedy completion.
For out of all the millions of dollars
that have been appropriated from the
national Golfers to aid the railroads
and great internal improvements of
other states, this one orphan child, "
ing down upon the shores of the gulf,
has received not one cent. But that
time has passed, j hope.
Gentlemen, you will pardon me If i
mention briefly something in regard to
the objects of our mission hither. We
would not dissatisfy the humhlest
peasant, who has his cottage high upon
the mountain side or deep down in the
valleys of beloved Georgia. Certainly
we would not seek to dissatisfy her
aged citizen, whs fingers here over the
graves of his dead. We say to them

GEN. GARFIELD was greeted by {
thronged house on Tuesday evening, and
the speech with which the evening wa,
occupied was listened io with profound
attention, and if we may judge from the
applause that manifested itself toward the
clOse,-ss the tension began to slacken-
with hearty approval. 1t was character
isiic OF the man-calm, dispassiOnate. gen
erous and laIr TO all. He went over the
ground of the feeling, and outbreaks OF
the South, the tariff, finance, an explana-
tiOn of his vote Oh the salary grab &c
On this subject Mr. Garfield satisfied eve
ry reasonable mind that he had, by per-
sistenuy opposing II in all its shapes, as
an independent proposition, having voted
against it eighteen times, washed bis
hands of any responsibility of the salary
increase clause being placed on the gener-
al appropriation BILL He said he opposed
il as unwise, uncalled for and indecent
and had voted for its repeal with the ut
mostsatisfaction. He bad never drawn a
dollar of the extra payAfrom the Treasu-
nv of the United States. He also proved
that he was the first member of Congress
who had certified the extra pay back into
the Treasury fact admitted and pub
lished in the New York World, the
leading Demoeatic paper of the country.
He referred his hearers to his published
speech delivered at Warren on Saturday

ed last week, will appear as an extra in

Two of the new cisterns recently order
ed by the council, for fire purposes, are
about completed, and certainly appear to
be the kind of cistern that has long been
needed here. and are, with one reception
the largest in town, having a capacity of
200 barrels. Mr.. h. P. Hepburn furnish.
ed the plan and drawings, and the con.
tract for building was awarded, as hereto.
fore stated, TO Mr. Wilkinson, which is q

been done in substantial and workman.
like manner. The clsteFns are located as
follows: one on Centre st. between Elm
st. and A., 7. g P. R. R. one on Park st.
corner Of Boot alley, and the third one
which is yet to be constructed, is to be To-
gated on Park st. near the corner of Lake
St The cost is $500 each.
The corporation has done good thing.
not only in providing these neediul reser-
Yoirs, but in the manner Of procuring
their construction by sealed proposals Il
secured the ends at a more economical rate
than has been obtained in previous works
of the kind. 1t is toierably apparent that
Mr.. WilkinsOn's bid for the labor was TOO
low, end the prospect is that he will
lose on the job. some $50 or 200 dol
lars. This the contractor is unable TO
stand, and in case this should be the re-
suit, it would be but 'falr for the corpora
ton to make it up to him.
