lawyers Fees in Georgia.

The Atlanta ga. Herald says: The other
day, in conversation, some one remarked that
General Toombs never crosses court house
steps for less than ST, 1000, when Judge Loeb
rane replied that there was nothing strange
aboutlthat; wouldn't take any case for a
smaller fee than $4,000. This caused the
crowd to discuss legal fees, and it was found
that several large fees had been paid Atlanta
lawyers since the war. Mr.. Hill, in the cele-
brated Metca]f case, received a $10O, 900 fee.
Judge Lochrane fee of $4,000 IN the
Brunswick and Albany case. Mr.. Hill re-
ceived fee of $25, 900 for his management
of Kimball's case. Judge Lochrane received
$4,000 as fee from Mrs. Kimball in the
Kimball house case. In addition to these
cases, there is case now pending between
Henry Clews g. Co. and the Cherokee Rail-
road. involving $275, 900, in which the fees
will be large 1t is said that Judge Loeb
ranes fee, as attorney for Clews, will be
$25,000.

The Influence of Newspapers.

A school teacher, who has been engaged
for long time in his profession, and wit
messed the influence Of a newspaper upon the
minds of q family and children, writes as
follows:
| have found it to be universal fact, with
out exception, that those scholars of both
sexes, ana OIL u1l a5co, who havo -ocoosa to
newspapers at home, when compared to those
who have not, are:
l. Better readers, excellent in pronuncia-
ton, and consequently read more understand
ingly.
2. They are better spoilers, and define
words with ease and accuracy.
3. They obtain practical knowledge Of
geography in almost half the time it requires
of others, as the newspapers have made them
acquainted with the location Of the important
places of nations, their government and
doings on the globe.
/. They are better yranmarlans Tor hay
ing become SO familiar with every variety OF
styles in the newspapers, from the common
place advertisement to the finished and clas-
sical oration of the statesman; they more
readily comprehend the meaning Of the text,
and constantly analyze its construction with
accuracy.
s. They write better compositions, using
better language, containing more thoughts,
more clearly and more correctly expressed.
6. Those young men who have for years
been readers of newspapers are always taking
the lead in the debating societies, exhibiting
a more extensive knowledge upon q greater
variety of subjects, and expressing their views
with greater tluency, clearness and correct
ness

SOME years ago there was an old steamboat
captain who was at once owner and COM
mander of one Of the numerous floating pal
aces on the broad Mississippi. Capt. Striker
was German, passionately fond of music,
always carrying band on his boat, which
was a favorite packet and patronized by all
the planters on the Bayou La Fourche. His
family resided near the town of Donaldson
vile. The building of church having been
proposed, Captain Striker subscribed $500.
In due course of time the church was finished.
Then lightning-ro was proposed, and an
from his chair and gesticulating angrily with
his forefnger, the old German replied: ''No,
chcntlemen! l vii not! say vonce for all.
un voncc more, vii not! / gif three hum
dred dollars to raise schurch to Got. Now,
If Got vonts to tunther it down, fly jus, by
Got, let his tunther avay!"

Tunnel Rlght Decision.

The following is in reply to note address
ed to the Commissioner by the Land officers
at independence, CAL:
WASHINGTON, March 13, 1870.
Reqistcr and Receiuer, independence, Ca5:
GENTLEMEN In reply to your letter OF
the 4th ultinO, have to state that the 4th
section of the Mining Act of May 10th, 1872,
provides that the owner OF tunnel shall have
1.-THE right Of possession of all veins or lodes
within three thousand feet from the face of
such tunnel on the line thereof, not previously
known to exist, discovered in such tunnel,
to- the same extent as if discovered from the
surface" and prevents locations being made
by others, ION the line OF such tunnel.
The line of the tunnel is held to be the width
thereof and no more, and that upon this line
only is prospecting for blind ]odes prohibited
while the tunnel is in progress. Other par
ties are in no way debarred from prospecting
for blind lodes or running tunnels so long as
they keep without the line of the tunnel as
herein defined, the said line being required
by the regulations of this Office to be marked
on the surface by stakes or monuments.
When q lode is discovered in tunnel, the
owner has the right to such lode and it is op-
tional with him to record his claim thereon,
taking fifteen hundred feet one side OF the
discovery, or part on one side and part on the
other.
The tunnel right is not enlarged by the dis
cOvery of q yein or lode therein, but remains
as before. The owner of the tunnel, how
ever, has the right to fifteen hundred feet on
the lode discovered, and the width Of surface
ground along the course thereof prescribed
by local law.
The said section does not give to tunnel
owners in any case surface ground seven
hundred and fifty feet IN width on each side
of their tunnel.
Very respectfully, your obedient servt,
s. 5. BURDETT, Commissjoner.

Gambling in High Life.

London Correspondence Chicago Tribune.
Some little excitement is going on in Lon
don about u vice which threatens to become
a fashion in the highest circles of society, and
which has already cost some serious scandals.
Ladies of high rank and great wealth. for
lack of something better to do, have set the
example of gambling at cards for large stakes,
and in one or two apparently decorous draw
ing-rooms sums of money have changed OWL
crs of appalling amount. Scandal whispers
that nobleman of high rank has been obliged
to sell estates which have been in the family
for centuries in order to clear himself of the
difficulties in which his wife had involved
him by her passion for gambling. The
Duchess of Manchester is said to have lost
f140, 600 sterling, but this cannot pledge
myself. The matter is really grave one,
and it is seriously to be hoped that some way
may be found of checking the practice before
it has become widely fashionable. Unlucki]y
gambling appears to exert fatal influence
over those who have once indu]ged in it, and
it is the more important, therefore, that the
leaders of fashionable society should reso-
lutely crush the practicc-which they can do
if they choose-by closing their doors against
either man or woman who is known to be a
gambler. The utter uselessness and laziness
which ruins the lives Of both men and women
in our upper classes is the true source of such
vice as gambling, and only honest labor
will cure the diseases which are slowly eating
away all that is best and noblest from the
natures of our luxurious and idle aristocratic
class

steamboat to Compete with a Railroad
Train.

Clark Smith of Cornwall, has just had is
sued to him letters Of patent for an endless
chain water wheel for propelling STEAMBOATS,
through the water. MIR. Smith claims that a
boat furnished with wheel such as he has
invented will be driven through the water at
much greater speed with the same power.
BY the wheel nov in use but few paddles take
hold upon the water at the same time. With
the endless chain arrangement nearly one
half of the paddles take hold upon the water.
1t would be impossible for us to give minute
description of this invention. Should it ac-
complish the half that the inventor claims, it
must reyolutionize steam navigation. He
claims that boat furnished with his inven-
ton can compete with the speed of railroad
train

A PIGEON HUNTER.
A man about thirty years old, having q
shotgun on his shoulder and two pigeons IN
his hand, was yesterday standing on street
corner telling II crowd that he had been out
and killed FIVE hundred pigeons since sunrise.
you're q lar!" shouted Il man in the edge
of the crowd.
The stranger looked at him long and earn
estly, and then inquired:
Where did you get acquainted with me!

like man in deep thought.
A BIT JEALOUS
Yesterday az an old couple from Canada
were wandering through the City Rall market
the man became SO deeply engaged in watch
ing two handsome ladies that he failed to re-
ply to his wifes inquiries. She saw what
allied him, and catching him by the ccat-tails
she slung him ''kewhop" against stall, and
then taking him by the collar she said:
Samuel Hanover, don't attempt to trifle
with me. You know me, Samuel, and you
know that I'll break your old neck if catch
you trying to play off on me-"
He turned his attention to the vegetables
after that.
ON THE WAY.
1t was night. \ policeman was pacing his
lonely beat, wondering if it would ever be
his luck to find fat wallet when no one was
around. Through the gloom and darkness a
boy appeared, some bread and meat under
one arm, an old army blanket under the other
and butcher knife in mis- belt.
''Whi,her?" growled the officer as he halted.
And through the dark shadows which were
hiding the boy from sight came the answer I:

lENINGTON-IS75.


JOHN g. WHITTIER
No maddening thirst for blood had they,
No battle-joy was theirs who set
Against the alien bayonet
Their homespun breasts IN that Old day.
Their fec. had troddcn peaceful ways.
They loved not strife, they dreaded pain;
yhev saw not, what 70 us is plain,
That God would make mans wrath His praise.
No seers were they, but simple men,
It's vast results the future hid;
The meaning OF the work they did
Was strange and dark and doubtful tnel.
Swift as the summons came they lett
The plOw, mid-turrOw. standing still
The half ground corn-griet in the mill.
The spade in earth, the axe i'll CLEFT.
They went where duty seemed to cali:
They scarcely ark ed the reason why;
They only knew they could but die,
And death was not the worst OF all
OF man for man the sacrifice. ~.
Uussained by blood, save theirs, they gave
The flowers that blOssOmed from their grave
Have soWa themselves beneath all skies.
Their dcath-ehot shook the feudal tower,
And shattered elavcrys chains az well;
On the sky's dome, az on bell,
Its echo struck the worlds great hour.
That fateful echo is not dumb;
The nations, listening to lts sound.
Wait, from centurys vantage-ground,
The h0lier triumphs yet to COME
The bridal time of Law and Love,
The gladness of the worlds release,
When, war-eick, at the feet of Peace
The hawk shall nestle with the dove,---
The golden age of brotherhood,
Unknown to other rivalries
Than of the mild humanities.
And gracious interchange Of gocd.
When closer strand shall lean TO strand,
Till meet, beneath saluting flags,
The eagle of our mountain crags,
The lion of our MOtherIand.
