LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.
General Evans.

Editor Constitution: The people of Geor-
gia, when called on. have invariably hon-
ored the gallant officers who served them
on the battle field and in the tented city
during the dark and stormy days when
the continent was rocked in the cradle of
war.
A host of others, no less gallant, have
been properly honored by a grateful people,
and they Will continue to show their APP
preciation of the bravery and sacrifices eX-
hibited in their behalf by honoring the
gallant and good man who is now asking
them to elevate him to the governorshlp.
1t is universally known that General Evans
was IL brave and gallant officer, VINO uld
his entire duty without fear He proved
himself a man in those days when all the
elements that constitute man were
brought to the surface. He gallantly bore
his breast to the weapons of the enemy
when the country needed the services OF
men who would not daily in the discharge
of duty. He Illustrated the valor OF his
statehood, and Georgia is proud or the
men who, like General Evans; assisted IN n
exhibiting to the world mat bravery ana
herOism of the southern soldier, which mas
challenged the admiration or the clVlllzeu
world; and the people OF this state, 10
their credit be 1t SAD, Will always holloh
such men.
General Evans bears on his person the
sears inflicted on him while patthhS loI
the rights and liberties of this people, ana
their gratitude to him will not permit MN
to be singled out of all the WorthleS VINO
have been honored and told by them that
his services are not appreciated The peo-
pie of Georgia will never cast Such a
stigma on this one of her best citizens ana
braVeSt soldiers. :, -. iii
the citizens of this grand old state Will
make no such invidious distinction Ihey
recognize General Evans,s worm ana
character and will manifest their appre-
citation of his services at the ballot po%. fa,,,+
According to his enemies, the oniy Iauit
of General Evans and the chief objection
to his preferment is that he is a minister
of the gospel; and has it come to pass IN
Georgia that a good man VINO ministers
God's religion and proclams His holy word
is for that reason unsuited to perform the
functions of governor of the state. 1t
seems to be peculiarly fitting that the state

stitut1on There is quite an inquiry abou,
the gold lands of north Georgia. We should
attract miners to come and prospect the
regions watered by the Chattahoochee and
its tributaries. All this section abounds in
gold. Ii money could be made in the old

and modern ways introduced in the mining
of gold in California and other sections.
big incentive would be the location of
mint for coinage in Atlanta.
Before the war several millions were coin
ed at Dahlonega Can not bring to bear
the necessary powers on Washington and
build mint here?
l believe in the next twenty years, with
the modern devices for mining, the gold
regions of upper Georgia, western North
Carolina and part of South Carolina will
produce more gold than California ever did.
If our hills and valleys abound in this pre-
cious metal. which they do, should not
every effort be put forth to develop them?
Let the world know that have gold of

Strange Indian Method of Putting Lit

Strange Indian Method of Putting Lit
 tie Ones to Sleep.
 Sir George Campbell records in his Indian Memoirs very strange habit of native mothers in the neighborhood of Simla. He seems inclined to recom- mend it's adoption in England, but per haps he is speaking in jest.
 1 wonder not to have seen more no- Toico oI the curious practice of the hill women of putting their babies heads under spout of wa ter to send them to sleep and keep them quiet. When the new cartroad was first made, there was village at a halting-place where rows of such children might be seen in grove close to the road.
 The water of hill spring was so ad- justed as to furnish series of little spouts, each about the thickness of ones little finger. Opposite each spout was a kind of earth pillow, and a little trough to carry away the water. Each child was so laid that one of the water-spouts played on the top of it's head, and the water then ran off into the trough.
 I can testify that the process was most successful. There never were such quiet and untroublesome babies as those under the spouts. The people were unanimous in asserting that the water did the children no harm, but on the contrary, benefited and invig- orated them. In fact, they seemed to think that a child not subjected to this process must grow up soft-brained and good-for-nothing.
 Certainly their appearance showed no signs that this singular method of bracing the intellectual part of their bodies had done them any harm.

Paris Draws on the French Provinces for
 Most of Her Native Notables.
 The city of Paris with its environs boasts nearly one-twelfth of the total population of France, yet, according to the New York Evening Post, it does not escape the charge, which lies against so many other large cities, of being huge nav into which the best of the national life is sucked. Only in the slightest degree is it the parent of the energy and distinction which it displays on so great scale. In the political field scarcely one of the distinguished men of the time is Paris born. The president of the republic is not, nor is the president of the sen- ate or of the chamber; not one of the ten cabinet ministers, neither of the chief justices nor of the attorneys general of the higher courts reck- ons Paris as his birthplace, nor does the governor of the bank of France. Somewhat similar results are ob- tained by scanning the lists of distin- guished scholars, artists, journalists, soldiers. From the provinces have come a disproportionate majority of the men whose success in life makes Paris famous. Such facts are more striking in the case of the French cap ital, whose preponderance over the rest of the country has been so long established, than they would be in a newer country, where the headlong rush to the cities is comparatively new thing.
