HOW YOU CAN HELP ELECT
A DEMOCRATIC PRESIDENT

The Democrats Of Columbus and Muscogee county
are turning their party faith into works. They
have contributed to the wilson-AIarshall fund an
amount that is not only substantial but particu
larry gratifying because of the large number of sub
scriptions il represents is this breadth Of interest
that viii count for most in the national campaign
hundred donations of one dollar each are more
significant and more helpful than one of a hundred
dollars
Every Georgia Democrat should have share in
this patriotic investment The State is expected to
raise thirty thousand dollars, very modest sum
when it is reflected that the party's presidential
nominee is himself virtually a Georgian and is
bound to our commonwealth BY the closest of human
ties Many citizens have already given generously to
the campaign fund. but the essential thing is that
every true Democrat should do his individual part;
and il this is done, the thirtythousanddollar mark
win be reached and passed within less than fort
night
Il is important TO bear in mind that the needs OF
the national campaign are imperative The election
is little more than a month futureward. 1t is the
prompt subscription that viii help most. Your dollar
is needed today.
The work of the Columbus Democrats should
bestir every part of the State to immediate and
vigorous action The towns and cities expected
to raise ten thousand dollars and this easily be
done IL in each community representative citi
zen or organization will at once undertake canvass
of the party's membership The counties have been
requested to contribute another ten thousand dollars;
and through similar this, too, can be accom-
plished without burdening any Atlanta and
Fulton county are depended upon for the third ten
thousanddoIlar share of the total State fund. This
IS a comparatively nominal amount, when this COM
munfty's population and wealth and the importance
Of eIecting Democratic president are considered.
The receipt Of the Columbus contributions brings
The Journals readers part of the Wilson-Marshall
fund up to two thousand one hundred dollars. The
Journal will continue to acknowledge subscriptions
and forward them to national headquarters.
Let the Democracy of the State realize that it
has vital and urgent duty to perform in this pres
Dental campaign that its aid is needed in order to
sustain and press forward the splendid victory that
is in sight; let every citizen who wishes to see
Georgia family in the White House and a construc
tive statesman at the head of the Government con-
tribute his share however small. to the national
paign fund

until he needs it.

Each commune of France yearly
chooses its ''rOsiere''-the young lady
who. i'm the opinion of the notabilities OF
the district, takes. so to speak, the rose
of virtue I'm the community. This mysti-
cal rose carries with it a substantial sum
of money. Now. free-thinking deputy
has left in his will a yearly rosary of
x3OO but with the condition that the
Young lady who qualities for this award
must be not only physically but also
attractive. The old gentleman
does not put on record his criteria of
physical attractiveness. That question of
doubt he left. with an easy mind. to the
discretion Of the municipal authorities;
but from the point of view Of morals he
stipulates that the young lady chosen
shall be strictly anti-clerical She must
be ignorant of her Bible. and possess not
even q nodding acquaintance with SER
mon She must. in fact. be as free In
her thoughts as she is reserved in her
actions Young ladies with the Madonna
type of beauty will no doubt be hope

BERLIN, October 3, 1872
For the moment the Prussian Guard is
in bad odor Only recently entire
company of one of the infantry battal-
ions was found guilty of cheating at a
shooting match. and yesterday several
non-commissioned officers and men Of the
Gardes tfu Corps, the crack cavalry regi-
ment whose nominal function it is to af
ford immediate protection to the person
of the sovereign. We're sentenced by the
cOurt-martial at Potsdam for ill-treatment
of recruits.
1t appea red from the evidence that new
corners to the gardes We're indiScrimi-
nately subjected to ill-usage by men who
had already served couple Of years. but
nothing was heard of this until one re-
crut. who. il is true. was said to have suf-
fered from mental weakness at an earlier
period of his life, became insane under
the hands of his tOrmentorS and had to
be removed to the hospital. The attend
ants then found that the whole of his
body was covered with welts.
The father of this man received from
the barracks a letter beginning with
these words: I'VE recruits inform YOU
that your son has been terribly beaten
and that We are now being treated. in
the same way. We are all beaten by the
older men. but they have knocked the
wits out of your son.

Admit Brutal Treatment.

Numerous recruits We're examined and
all admitted, after much hesitation and
equivOcation. that they had been struck
by the older men. These witnesses pick
ed men of herculean stature. seem to
have cut rather a comical figure as they
stood humming and having before the
judges. for the president of the court
was stirred to the exclamation: These
big fellows stand there and dare not tell
the truth because they fear to get more
blows. Is il. then, matter of such in
difference to YOU grOwn-up men to be
beaten like schoolboys? Don't YOU feel
how dishonoring such treatment is?'
Prosecuting counsel said that many
cases of suicide and desertion were caus-
ed by such ill-usage. and asked for SEN
fences of from one to six months The
court. however. took a milder view of the
matter, and imposed penalties ranging
from seven days to six weeks
