A very rich vein of gold ore was
discovered on Thursday the 10th
ult., upon the property of Gen.
james Longstreet and Tony Merck,
within mile of the city limits of
Gainesville. The vein is about 4
feet in width where first discovered,
and as far as has been traced ap-
pears to grow wider, rather than
narrower. The rock is literally
covered and filed with rich yellow
gold, and panning of about two
quarts yielded at least FIVE penny
weights of the purest gold. 1t is
impossible to correctly estimate the
value of ton of this ore, but it will
certainly yield many thousands Of
dollars to the ton as long as the ore
continues as rich as that first found.
The mine is within two miles of the
Chattahoochee river, and the lot on
which the gold was found contains
$50 acres.

You can now come up to the Lake,
And each get ducking however slim,
And run and dive without fear of a snake.

But be careful not stay so long as to freeze
For people take not the places of fish.

Sanitary Marriage.

There are thousands of young men
and women who, by r,ason of their in
firmities, ought never to r,af
intirmities come from orr q.
account of absence of proper
of physical culture. They come
lily ventilated counting-rooms andt
tories; from foul tenements and ~
parlors. Pale and pun thy
men and women present ~[T -,,
of bodily imperfections-cle clearly PROV
ing that the very first lesson that
should be impressed upon growing
youth is the supreme importance OF
healthy bodies.
No young woman is handsome I'M
less healthy. The beauty of health
continues to old age. The Spartans
worshiped the beautiful and useful,
and took means to secure them.
Bodily perfection was attained by
enforced, well-appointed exercise. No
sickly man or woman was allowed to
marry, and all in health were COM
PEELED to do SO; if they refused, they
were punished. Bachelors, after a
certain age, were shut out from the So
ciety of women, and once year were
publicly shamed No one was allowed
to marry until full maturity was
reached. The result was that for 500
years the Spartans produced the
strongest and bravest men, and the
most healthy and beautiful women
that the world has ever seen. A little
Spartanism would be of incalculable
benefit to Americans.-Dr. Stickney,

trailing skirt will be confined to flo )rs,

Women are notably more sensible now
than they we're decade or two ago.
Suitability and appropriateness in at
tire are the strong POINTS in the
dress of the present time. The toilet
for the drawing DOM doeJ not in the
least resemble the dress wo
upon the promenade, and the woman
who confcunds the one with the other
finds herself greatly at variance with
the canons of good taste and elegance
which happily prevail just now. The
extreme caprice, the luxury, and elab-
orateness of the home and evening
toilets are finely counterpoised by tie
elegant and studied simplicity of those
designed for the promenade. As al
ready intimated, it is in the adjuncts of
a toilet that our women indulge them
selves grotesquely. There is always
large proportion of the t shionable
community who will have novelties at
all costs, and those whose business it
is to provide these are sometimes
driven to sore straits to suggest new
notions. 1t is plain that they do not
quite know what to think of just now
in this way, for l observe that one of
the latest of fashions whims is to We ar q
short ostrich plume twisted round the
arm, from which depend narrow satin
ribbons, while another conceit of the mo-
ment is the uselesi and not over-pretty
leaf handkerchief This is in the form
of hugo vine leaf, the serrat,d edges
being button-holed, and the veins out
lined in thread. If the m ouchoirs arc
colored, the threads arc white, and
vice versa.
Novelty in bracelets has evolved one
which will hold n small watch At fir t
q watch was permanently inserted in
the bracelet, but they were apt to be
worthless time pieces, and now the
bracelets are made so that an ordinary
watch, if of small size. can be clamped
securely into it. The cut shows how
it looks. The second bracelet is q new
design, while the Thrill, set with d.a-
monds, is made SO that it can he at
