ii was the Evening Express that
held out the promise that We can
return back into our own ranks
after electing its friendsirto all the
offices, as stated in my last letter.
A reference to an editorial in its
issue of Monday, the 18th instant,
will prove this fact. The editorial
in question bears the heading of
"We Must Gather In the Fruits"
Now, what fruits are they going to
gather in? The fat offices, of
course,-if they can only get them.
This ingenious article is concluded
by the following pleasing remark:
"When we have carefully secured
the fruits of our great victory, we
can, with safety, divide of on other
issues" Now, in the name of all
that is mighty, what does this
mean? / suppose it must mean
that, after Colonel Ayers, General
Howard, Judge O'Melveny, Judge
Terry, and God knows how many
more lawyers and capitalists, are
elected to fill the offices, we can oil
fall back into our respective call.

ence, while they are chanting "as
it was in the beginning SO 1t shall
be ever more, world without end"
Again, the Express says that

never known it yet to deviate one
particle from the principles of the
parry it represents. But how
is it with the Evening Er.
presss 1t seems to me to be always
standing on the fence, watching
the course of the political wind. It
is very favorable to the ConstItu-
tional party, and yet its editor
would like to connubiate with the
Workingmen little. But the cry
of Ego hare, go hound" will never
do for the Workingmen, as they
are all pledged to never affiliate
with any other party or to vote for
the candidates Of any party but
their own. If the editor of the
Evening Express wants to "connu-
biaten with the Workingmen, he
must be either hot or cold-give up
that rag of a Constitutional scheme
and be a WOrkingman in practice
as we'll as in theory.
In consideration of your space, l
will close. Yours truly,
A WORKINaMAN.

A Hen Becomes a Rooster.
LOglethorpe (Ga.l Echo.

Six years ago this July there was
hatched in this section female
chick. With the exception of the
usual adventures with hawks and
owls, this interesting fowl reached
the stage of pullethood Without
creating any unusual excitement.
She quickly won the hearts of the
lords of the barnyard, and more
than one pitched battle was fought
for her favor by rival cocks. In
time she developed into a steady,
matronly hen, and sat upon and
Latched five broods of chicks and
one of geese, from which feat she
was known in the neighborhood as
che "goaling" hen. Last February,
however, marked change was OBJ
served in the subject of this sketch.
First, the roosters ceased to wor-
ship at her shrine. A change was
observed in her general bearing,
she was assuming decidedly mas !.
culine airs-crowing with the
voice and tone of a thoroughbred
chahticleer; spurs commenced to
grow from her heels; the tail.
feathers heightened and curved;
her comb grew in length, and now
this remarkable fowl has developed
into a full.fledged rooster. 1t Is
now on exhibition at Barrows.

Damned by Their Faces.

The Grand Jury was just closing
its session last Saturday; and, pre-
paratory to doing SO was visiting
the Jail, in front Of which stood a
granger and notorious wag. AS
the jury filed in, two by two, the
granger asked:
"What are all these men b.ing
arrested for 81
The wag replied: "They are des-
peradoes, and have had possession
of the Court House for the last
week; have been insinuating them
selves into the affairs of the county;
have inspected the Hospital and
Aims House, and now they are 60
ing TO Jail"
Granger" They are he hardest
looking set / ever saw, and 1t is
we'll they are placed in contine-
ment that the provisions of the
new Constitution may be fully car
ried out.u
With a merry twinkle in his eye
the wag departed. So did we, while
the innocent stood agape, wonder
ing how varied are the scenes OF
life.

Baron Huddleston, an eminent

Baron Huddleston, an eminent
English Judge, recently took occa-
sion to say from the bench that 1t
was an undoubted fact that a wo.
man told q lie very much better
than did man, and with very
much better effect. 1t was a re-
markable Circumstance that when
q woman was determined to say
what was untrue she said it in a
much better manner than man.
Whether this was due to a man
feeling that his dignity was to a
certain extent offended by recourse
to untruth he did not know; that
was a.metaphysical question into
which he would not enter; but 1t
was certain that woman told a
story much more logically, and, If
it was untrue, held to it much more
pertinaciously and with more the
appearance of truth than q man
could,

thirty-five, who has been staying
for two months at the Hotel de
Paris, has been noted for her heavy

she speaks English, French, Ger

facility and purity. She seems to

In the elegant quarters OF Paris
there is a coupe IN which no one
