NEWMAN, Ga, June 12.-News of ter
rible tragedy comes from Coweta county.
Henry Attaway, son of Within Attaway,
was in field ut Campbell with force of
negro laborers, directing them in their
work. One of the negroes, upon being
ordered about by Attaway, grew violent,
and rushed upon his employer with an
open knife. The father of the infatuated
negro caught Attaway and held him,
while the son gave him three stabs. With
all the strength of desperation Attaway
broke loose, grasped the knife, and sink
ing it to the hilt into his assassin's temple,
killed him instantly. Attaway died shortly

seems, a rare run of luck at the green
table, and with eccentric prudence, he
determined to ensure. in the season Of
his prosperity, that, whatever priva-
tion the turn of fortunes wheel might
bring with it, he should never want
for his favorite flower He asked his
feuriste one day accordingly what sum
she would take to supply him with a
white camellia every day for the rest of
his life The amount fixed upon-a
very considerable one. as may be sup
posed-was paid on the spot, and now

the asphalt, rejoicing in the possession
of a camellla worth rather more than

SAMUEL WHITTIER" "
Grants TyDe.


Gath" says in an article on General
Grant in the Cincinnati Enquirer: In
the great men of the past we find
none of the type of General Grant.
Cromwell and Wellington suggest no
resemblance to him either in origin or
temperament. Among modest heroes
like Admiral De Ruyter he might be
classified but for the supreme honors
he has attained 1t was told of De
Ruyter that on the morning after a
battle of four days a visitor found him
sweeping his cabin and feeding his
chickens; and when decorated with
honors and titles by every Prince Of
Europe he never in the slightest de-
gree overcame his innate modesty"
Both De Ruyter, who was taken out
of a rope yard, and Grant, out of a
tannery, were sincere republicans,
graduated by sense Of duty that sup
pressed all restless, vulgar ambition.
Grant is the earliest fruit of that per-
fected and simplifed republicanism
which was seeded and ripened beyond
the Ohio river. He is not only Amer
lean, but North western. People who
are seeking in him traces of the old
Colonial gentry, like Washington, are
ignorant of their country and it's ex-
pansion. What Washington but dim
ly conceived the age and locality Of
Grant have fully realized--a powerful
democracy and its home heroes. He
was born on the public land, went to
land-endowed Public Schools, and was
the son on both sides of pioneers The
whole machinery of the Federal Con-
stltution and the statutes of the gov
ernment of the North western Terri
tory bad gone into operation when he
came upon the stage. No other Presi-
dent except Lincoln had been exclu-
sively Western grown, and Lincoln
was born in Kentucky, though Of
Pennsylvania descent.
Grants stock is Puritan and Penn
sylvanian. He is of English Puritan
stock, which came to this country in
1880, ten years after the Pilgrim
Fathers

She wore kerchief round her he al,
Her papered curls to hide.
The founces on her skirts were torn
Her slippers were united,
Her jacket wanted buttong, and
Twas not exactly clean,
And through her worn-out sleeves quite plain
Her elbows could be seen.
When she receiued him
Upon her brow Ter fluffy hair
Like tangled sunshine lay,
Ter pretty Mother Hubbard gown
Was rich in ribbons gay,
Her little shoes were decked with bows
Some meadow flowers clung
Near her fair throat, and from her aide
a small scent-bottle hung.
