When Mr.. Paynesreached Athens he was
cordially received by Gen. Harden, and
promised that whatever could be done In
aiding him in making~fhe investigation
would be done. Mr. Payne stopped at the
only tavern in Athens atthat time, and
the evening he called to present his letter
Of introduction he met for tia first time
the beautiful daughter of Gen. Harden,
and it was clearly case Of love at first
sight, as the devoted attentions of Mr.
Payne afterwards proved. Mr.. Payne con-
trolled his feelings and devoted himself
to the work he had entered Georgia to
accomplish. Through Gen. Harden he OBJ
tanned an invitation from the chief Of the
Cherokees, John Ross, to visit the Indi-
ans, which he eagerly accepted, but he
had scarcely put his foot among the In
+ dians before an Officious Indian agent
named Curry had him arrested as sus-
picious character, and meddling with mat
terS which did not concern him-endeav-
oring to stir up strife between the Indians
and the whites. AS quickly as possible
Mr.. Payne acquainted Gen. Harden with
the fact Of his arrest, and that gentle
man Immediately hastened to the capital
at Milledgeville and secured from the
governor the necessary papers for the re-
lease of Mr.. Payne.
at is at this stage Of the story that
the negro. Rob Roy, the house boy and
valet to Gen. Harden, furnished some in
teresting facts. and ne told me, In his

the family did not like the way Mr.. Payne
was being treated, and 1 tell you that

expected that he was a smoke house rob-

Edward long to 'nounce his mission
among the Indians, and it wasn't more

Origin Of Missing.

According to Prof. Cesare Lombroso. tho

hiss, as a token Of affection. was unknown
to the old Greeks. and neither in Homer
nor in Heriod do we find any mention OF
it. Hector did not kiss his Andromache
when he bade her farewell. neither lid

her waist and drawing her to him.
The people OF Terre del Fuego. says
Lombroso, have taught civilized nations
the origin Of the delightful art OF kissing.
Drinking vessels are unknown In that
country, and the people. when they ara
thirsty, simply lie down beside brooks
and drink the water as II flows by them
1t Is evident however, that infants could
rot satisfy their thirst in this primitive
fashion, and therefore their mothers hdvo
for ages supplied them with water by fill

pectant mouths Of their little ones. In
some places the banks OF the brooks and
rivers are SO high that water cannot he
obtained In the usual manner. and the
mothers in such places draw it up through
long reeds.
Birds feed their young ones In similar
manner. They first fill their own mouths
with water and then transfer II 10 the
wide open mouths Of the little ones. This
very ancient maternal practice is, accord
ing to Lombroso. the only source to which
the modern practice Of kissing can b3
traced The custom OF pressing one m nth
to another originated with the women In
Terra del Fuego. who could only supply
their infants with drink In this manner.
and It IS presumable that they learned
the lesson from the birds. Finally, we
are told that kissing IS an evidence Of
atavsm and a memorial OF that early
stage I'm our development during which
the wife had rot yet triumphed over the
mother nor love over maternity"
Lombroso's views on this subject meet
with the general approval OF scientists.

that his explanation Of the origin Of kiss
ing IS not in accordance with the Old Ona
