to the harvest in large parties, mount

his home seemed probable. Then
stranger came along and offered $500
for the treasured yellow hair. That
amount of money would raise the
mortgage on the homestead, and the
husband reluctantly made the sale.

miner went to pay the debt, and

MRS. rELToNs LETTER.

MRS. E'EbION . LIZ 6R'
Mrs. FELTON, is out in very sharp
and pungent letter, in which, under
pretence of defending her husband,
she sails into GenI Gordon in very
lively manner. 1t appears that
charge had been made to the effect,
that during the last campaign in this
district, she wrote to the National
Republican committee at Washing
ton. or rather to Senator Ferry, a
member of the Committee, soliciting
the help of the committee, and in-
deed asking for funds to be used IN
aid of the re election of her hus
band. She admits in sort Of cloudy
way. that she "dtd s0rite a friendly
letter to Senator Ferry, asking h'm
to use his influence, &C." but she de-
MES that she asked for financial aid.
She is careful however not to publish
her letter to her friend, the Radical
Michigan Senator. This is very sig
nifcans omission. Mr.. Ferry is the
president Of the U. S. Senate, and it
vas upon him as such presiding OF
fcer that the Radicals relied in their
scheme Of vlIany to cheat Mr.. Til
den out of the presidency, to which
be had been honestly elected. Mrs.
FELTON, admits to holding friendly
correspondence with this man. and
asking his help in behalf of her hus
band. We are truly sorry to see
this. 1t will not help the Doctor in
Georgia, or in the South-at least
among Democrats. But why not
publish her letter to the Radical
Michigander ? Why not let the peo>
nile see v hat she did write 7
Mrs. FeIton's letter is very adrolt
literary performance Her defence
of her husband is brief ana foggy.
It was doubtless intended to be such,
her real object being to turn her
broom upon Gen'l Gordon, whom
she accuses as the person who really
had her letter to Ferry brought to
light. She not only a8sails the Gen
eral, and goes for the correspondent
who first drew attention to the now
famous letter, but she makes mouths
at Airs. Gordon. True, she does not
mention that lady by name, but the
allnsion cannot be misunderstood.
The comments of the Constitu
lion upon the letter are apt and just,
but the editor writes at a olsadvan~
tage. No man has al equal chance
in contest with woman. Buiwer
saws that he is worse than cowa' d
who lays his hands upon woman,
save ia the way of kindness. 1t is
impossible therefore for the Consti
tuition, "or any other man" to make
c suitable reply to Mrs. FELTON,. The
truth is, it is about time for the men
to quit when woman enters the
ring, unless she be like the wife who
looked on while her husband and the
bear were fighting. We respectful
ly suggest that Gen, Gordon employ
Gail Hamilton or Mrs. Stowe to meet
The plucky lady from Georgia. Then
the feathers would be made to fly
in good earnest. AS for ourselves.
we are slightly superstitious, and al
ways feel like getting out of the
way when we hear a growing hen.

ATLANTA has more poor men with
rich wives than any city in the South.
Strange to say, these noble women
saved it all by strict (!) economy,
while their husbands were in busi>
ness. Now. that the poor husbands
are bankrupt aud out of business,
they ride in their wives fine carr
riages, live in elegant houses, aud
get spending money from their well
filed purses. A man who fails in
buriness without such thrifty wife
to depend upon in his poverty, is in
deed to be pitied. The tax books
of Fulton county show that many ex~
merchants who paid big taxes few
years sgo. aside from their stores,
now pay nothing. But their then
poor wives now appear as heavy tax
payers. All !! woman, what bless
ing and what good "provider" thou
art for unfortunate man
