Our MilILarY.

A State exchange, noticing the apathy
which prevails among the military compa-
MES in the different cities, very truthfully
SAYS: "The trouble with he volunteers in
Georgia is that they receive no substantial
recognition whatever from the State. They
have t. by their own uniforms, rent their
own armOries, and furnish money for every
thing that the companies require. 1t Is not
to be expected that men will care to join q
volunteer company under this state Of sf-
fairs. South Carolina gives each Of her
companies q stated annual sum, which goes
a long wsy towards keeping the organic A.
ton in funds. South Carolina, consequently,
has q fine volunteer force, while that OF
Georgia, with few exceptions, is down to a
very low ebb. We venture to say that the
spirit can be revived in this State If the next
Legislature will take the proper action.

WOMAN.

By reason of her peculiar relations, and her
peculiar ailme nts, woman has been compelled
to suffer, not only her own ills, but those aris
ing from the want of knowledge. or of con-
sideration on the part Of those with whom she
stands connected in the social organization
The frequent and distressing Irregularities Pc
culiar to her sex have thus been aggravated to
a degree which no language can express. In
the mansions of the riola and the howell of the
poor alike, woman has been the patient victim
of ills unknown to man, and which none but
she could endure-and without remedy. But
now the hour of her redemption has come.
She need not suffer longer, when she can find
