BARKIs is still willin'. Old ALIEN.
STEPHENS is now quoted by the Wash
ington correspondent of the Atlanta
Constitution as stating that he is IN re-
ceipt of a great many letters urging him
to become a candidate for Governor OF
Georgia, in order to avert threatened
dissensiOns in the Democratic party OF
that State. In reply Mr.. STEPHENS has
written that public man Oughtto be at
all times at the command of his people,
if it lay in his power, and that with his
present state of health there is no I'M
perious reason why he should not enter
the gubernatorial canvass, provided
there is a general wish in the party that
he should do so.

there is some satisfaction to be derived by
patriotic Americans in the thought that, if
Shipherd is liar, he is liar on a scale
commensurate with the vastness of this
country. \ country that boasts its con-
tinental proportions, its Mississippi river,
its boundleSs prairicS, its enormous length

elections, passed after the adoption OF
the constitutional amendment for
biennial elections in November, has
been so worded, through inadvertence,
that all the State Senators will have to
be elected at the general election this
year, though the hOld-Overs were sup
posed to last until 1854. The Republic
cans are worried by the outlook. When
they passed the law they did not reflect
sufficiently, and the muddle in which it
leaves the matter is only now discov-

THE REGISTER has received the lat
cSt work of CAPTAIN WILLIAM GLA-
ZIER, entitled BATTLES for the Union"
CAPTAIN GLNZIER was among the first
who, at the commencement of the war
for the Union, enlisted from Troy. He
bore himself with true gallantry, and
was captured in the engagement at
New Baltimore, in the autumn of 1865.
He remained in Libby for several
months. After his escape he was pro-
NOTED to a captaincy, and served till
the war ended. OF late years he has
published several works of army ex-
periencc, which are written with vivid
ness and with dramatic
power worthy of the best writers. The
book referred to above gives in vigorous
and graphic language an account of
every engagement, from Fort Sumpter
to and including the surrender of the
last rebel army. The work is not Il
ponderous history, heavy with details of
minor events, but full of the momentous
incidents of n struggle, the memory of
which our brave soldiers love TO dwell
upon.
The book is now being canvassed for
i'm this CITY. and we hope the agents
will meet with that success the work so
highly deserves.

TIE ladies have now got a bicycle
which happens to be tricyle. We are
not informed of the mode of manipulate
rg the machine, but at Washington it
is now the fashionable style of locomO-
ton. y correspondent thus refers to
them:
Tricycles are getting quite common
enough now To do away with some of the
curiosity which i expended over then, Is
they appear. There are quite number Of
them in Use, particularly among women
and put in more practical purposes, too,
than the altogether "giddy' bicycle. Not
a few bicycles carry their owners To work
every DAY and home again, but the tricycle.
and its passenger keep company all day.
Mrs. Belva Lockwood. the lawyer first had
the courage TO rein up the fiery steed in
front of all the places where she has bust
ness every day, and she flies along beside
the car track in the greatest and most I'M
concerned manner although quite con-
sCiOus of the sensation she produces there
by. She has n little screen stretched across
the front of the vehicle, which hides parti-
ally the vigorous foot movement neCes.
sary To keep in swift motion.
Her example and unconcern about
peoples ideas has no doubt encouraged
the other ladies, who have already boldly
appeared on the avenue in the busiest time
Of the afternoon and excited the same star
ing that the first yelOCipedes and bicycles
received. of course il is only matter OF
time before the tricycles will be in as gen
eral use as their predecessors in lOcOmO-
ton Their adaptability to general uses is
even more strongly marked than the
bicycle. There is quite complex arrange
ment in the way OF triCyCling, owned by
nr Bliss. Jr., atiording room for himself
and comfortable seat in the rear for his
wife. Thus far they only ride about N
night. but are quite envied in the posses
sion of such an eaSy.gOing vehicle. One of
the lady triCyClistS, wearing a large white
straw lat. attracted such general attention
on the avenue near Fifteenth street, one
afternoon last week As TO form 4 CurbStone
audience in a twinkling The triCyCliSlS
are confident, however. that they are not
ahead OF the times, and will soon be az
corded the same quiet interest that any
other method OF selt-propulsion gets.
