Her BOnnat.

When meeting bells began to toll,
And pous folks began to pass,
She deftly tied her bonnet on,
The little, sober meeting-lass
All in her neat, white-curtaned room, before
her tiny looking-glass.
So nicely, round her lady-cheeks,
She smoothed her bands of glossy hair
And innocently wondered if
Her bonnet did not make her fair;
Then sternly child her foolish heart for harbor-
ing such fancies there.
So square she tied the satin strings,
And set the bows beneath her chin
Then smiled to sec how sweet she looked;
Then thought her vanity sin,
And she must put such thoughts away before
the sermon should begin.
But, sitting meath the preached word
Demurely, in her fathers pew,
She thought about her bonnet still
Yes, all the parsons sermon through
About its pretty bows and buds. which better
than the text she knew.
Yet. sitting there with peaceful face,
The reflex Of her simple soul,
She looked 10 be very saint
And maybe was one ON the whole
Only that her pretty bonnet kept away the
aureoe.

The State Road Appraisernent.

The commission that was appointed to in
spect the Western and Atlantic railroad
and appraise its property, has completed its
work and made its report There is no rea-
son to think that the work was not done
faithfully, intelligently and conscientiously,
and yet, doubtless, to the majority of the
people of the state it is disappointing. The
disappointment is due to the smalne,s of
the sum at which the entire property is ap-
| praised. When the question whether the
road should be sold or released at the ex
! piraton of the present lease, it was esti-
mated that the state could realize from it
about Is, 100000.
| The fact doubtless is that better road,
with better equipments, could be built be-
tween the terminal points of the Western
and Atlantic road for a much less sum than
the amount of the commissions ap)rais-
mont. 1t costs a great deal less per mile to
build railroads now than it did when the
Western and Atlantic was built, and the
difference in the cost Of equipment is even
greater.
The commission places the value of the
road and rolling stock, together with the
terminal property, at between $6,OOO,0OO
and 81, 100000. If the claim of the lessees
for betterments were allowed, the sum which
the state would receive, if the property
were sold at the appraised price, would not
be, probably, S6,OO0,0O0
The road has good earning power, how
ever, and can be leased again doubtless, for
the present rental, viz, $25, 900 per month.
The question whether the road shall be
leased or sold will have to be set
tied by the next legislature. 1t
can be said in favor of selling it.
that more perhaps can be obtained for it
now than it will be possible to get for it
after the expiration of another lease, be-
cause sooner or later the Marietta and
North Georgia road is certain to parallel it
from Marietta to Atlanta, and cease to be a
feeder of it. OF course there are strong
arguments in favor of leasing it, One Of
them is that if the road were sold at the
appraised price, the amount received, after
deducting an allowance for betterments,
would not pay much more than half Of the
state debt, while the rental of the road will
come very near paying the interest on the
debt, when the debt is all funded into Al
per cents

A Wise Woman,
From the Boston Courier.

FFOHt tHe BOSTON courier.
lady who is passing the summer in a farm
house, relates how by shrewd device, she
secured her morning nap, which had been seri-
ously broken in upon by noisy cockerel who
felt it at once a privilege and duty shrill-
voiced to hail the morn directly under her
window. The worthy dame slept on the other
side Of the house, and troubled herself little at
the report of the chandeliers offensiveness, so
that it became evident enough to the boarder
that if anything was to be done she must do it
herself
She reflected; she devised plan; she acted
She hunted up Small coy In the neighborhood
and for a small sum hired. him to come early IN
the dewy morning and drive the clamorous
cockerel round TO the other side of the house
The result was that when the chanticleer's
shrill clarion cheered the morn its notes pierced
into tho veXed ears of the landlady instead Of
those of the boarder.
The result of this policy was most satisfac-
tory. the small boy had been engaged for a
week but at the end of the third day the
boarder smilingly paid him weeks wages and
discharged him.

Georgia's Tax Digests.

The tax digests of the various counties Of
this state, which are now being sent to the
comptroller general, show a very crafty
ing increase in the taxable values. The
state is steadily growing in wealth, and the
| growth is a very healthy one.
The farms are becoming more valuable
and farm stock is increasing and is being
improved The states mineral resources
are being developed. 1t is just beginning
to be understood how great these resources
are. OF course they are not to be
compared with those of North Alabama
and Tennessee. but they are nevertheless
very important, and i'll a comparatively
few years will add greatly to the states
wealth. Capital is being invested all the
time in mineral lands, and in machinery to
work them The railroads that have been
constructed lately, or that are now being
built, will make it possible to greatly in
crease the states mineral output. When
the next census is taken it will appear that
Georgia is entitled to marked attention on
account of her marbles and ores
The states forests are as yet almost I'M
touched, although their resources are more
heavily drawn upon each succeeding year.
Their yield of lumber is immense, and they
produce enough naval stores to make Savan-
nah the greatest naval stores market in the
world.
No one of the cities of the state is having
marvellous growth but nearly all of them
are enjoying a remarkable prosperity. They
are growing in wealth and population, and
they have solid basis for their increase in
both.
brief study of the state, and the prog
ress she is making, explains why the tax di-
gests from the different counties are exciting
so much favorable comment. And it must
he remembered that the state receives very
few immigrants. The number received
annually is gradually increasing, it is true,
but it is nothing like what it ought
to be. If Georgia had received
as many immigrants as some of
the northwestern states she would, besides
being the empire state of the south, be close
to the empire state of the north in all that
gives state prominence in the union. In
the next year OF two, however, she may
reasonably expect an increase In immgra-
ton. The immigration movement inau-
gurated by the Central railroad is certain
to be successful, and when once immigrants
begin to come here, the inflow, there is
every reason to believe, will be an ever
increasing one.

The Meeting of the Good Templars.

The Grand lodge of Good Templars,
which has just closed its annual ses-
sion in this city, is an organization
that should be encouraged in every
way. There are no better people in
the state than are found within the lodges
of the Good Templars. They not only do
vast amount of work for the cause of tenn
perance, but they are exemplary citizens
who live up to the high principles in which
they profess to believe and who are active
in inducing others to adopt their principles
The Good Templars are wise in divorcing
the cause of temperance from politics. The
attempt to promote temperance by means
of politics is generally failure. Politi-
clans anxious to advance their selfish
schemes do not hesitate to use the tenn
psrance cause for that purpose but If they
are not genuine temperance men, and as
rule they are not, they will not hesitate to
sacrifice the temperance cause whenever it
suits their purpose to do so. They pretend
to be the firm friends of temperance as long
as it pays them to play that role, but when
they are called upon to make sacrifices for
it, they are found wanting
luNs dO uOb uolp bIlo
temperance cause unless the people are
educated to believe in prohibition, because
1t is impossible to enforce such laws where
public opinion does not support them. 1t
is not too much to say that intoxicants do
more harm in communities where prohibi-
tory laws prevail, and where public senti-
ment is against such laws, than in COM
munities where there are no restrictions
upon their sale. The reason is that a thing
that is prohibited, and yet can be obtained
surreptitiously, appears to be more desired
than when it is not prohibited.
The Good Templars educate the people
against intoxicants, and promote the tenn
perance cause by porsuading them to lead
temperate lives. They prepare the way
for prohibitory legislation, because they
create public sentiment which makes the
enforcement of such legislation possible.
There are over 10000 Good Templars in
this state, and the number is steadily in
creasing. Their influence in behalf of the
temperance cause is very great-far greater
than it is possible to estimate-and to them
is largely due the fact that so large a part
of the state has adopted prohibition

The Letters of Acceptance.


From the Neto York Star CDeml
Those who criticisa the delay of the presi-
dental and vice presidential candidates of this
yenr in writing their letters of acceptance over
look the fact that the holding of the conventions
at an unusually early date has greatly pro
ionged the initiatory stage of the campaign. In
1854 Cleveland's letter of acceptance was not
given to the public until Aug. iS-twenty days
after his receipt of notification of his nomina-
ton from the committee of which Col, William
f. Villas, now Secretary Of the Interior, was
chairman. Blaine'S letter and that of Cleveland
came close together
