Forsyth was long eminent la both houses of Con gress, and for seven years he dls rhimd the duties of Secretary of State -with distinguished ability. Crawford narrowly escaped the high en Place to which an American citl gen can aspire; he was a practical man and an eminent Secretary of the Treasury, a station he filled for nine year. Berrien was a Northern man, av graduate of Princeton; but he was practicing law In Georgia at the age of nineteen. In ISIS, when the party of Jefflersom had swallowed up all ether parties, he was elected Senator from Georgia, Later he was Attorney General In Jackson's Cabinet, in wnicn your family's business," retorted the Judge. "It U for you to determine. Are you willing to marry her nowt"' The man replied that he was. Griggs then went for the girl,- and. In reply to his question, she Mid she loved 'the accused and wished to be his wife. "Stand up, then, both of you, and Join right hands." They did so, and Griggs married them, and neither ever had cause to regret it.

In 18U he again entered the Senate as a Whig and served eleven-years when he-resigned and retired to private life, venerated for his lofty character. Toombs never met his master in de bate, and the same Is true of Ben HilL Cobb was not a brilliant man, but he was gifted with the wbidora of state craft, and the South made a mistake in not electing him -President of the Confederacy in 1S61, and giving Jef ferson Davis command of an army In the field. Stephens was a doctrinaire, who devoted a long life to the study and . expounding of political princi ples. If he could come out of the grave In 1908 he would have to be In troduced to the Democratic party o' Mr. Bryan. Joseph E. Brown was tte war governor of Georgia, in which station he gave both aid and trouble to the government at Richmond. James M. Griggs is a native of La Grange, Ga.. where Ben Hill lived and practiced law and politics so long. He was born a few weeks before the hot that was fired against Fort Sum ter began to reverberate around the world, and thus his childhood, youth, New York In the electoral college was fooled away for Nevada, and Indiana was swapped for Montana. In a Quixotic endeavor to make Kansas and Nebraska Democratic, Illinois and Wisconsin were again made solidiy Republican. The fruit of this foolish ness Is that there are but two Demo cratic Senators from the North In the Sixtieth Congress, and you have to write the word this way, "Democrat ic;" for both were Republicans when the last Democrat was elected Presi dent. Had the last two amendments been repealed a dozen years ago, there would now be a batch of Republican Senators from the South. Griggs Is a man of sterling ability. His mind graspi things, holds them, and picks them to pieces. While making no pretense to oratory, he makes a strong speech replete with dear statement and sound argument. In Congress every man is weighed, and preferment Is not a thing of. fa vor. If a man come to the front in that body, he has to work his pas gage. Nowhere else Is a man of real ability more cordially welcomed, and nowhere else is a dunce more out of Joseph McDowell, of Pleasant Gardens, was "Huntln John" Mr-TViw11 and he married Annie Edmoniton. of.

Young Griggs attend ed the common school, and hl train ing was finished at the peabody Nor mal School, at Nashville, in 1881, when he was twenty years of age. He Immediately returned home, taught school, and studied law. In lSXt he came to the bar and two years later he located at Dawson, Terrell county, where he yet lives, la the dis trict so long and so capably represent ly represented in Congress by that greatest Georgian of his time.

Congress pricks up its ears whenever a new member rises. It listens with attention; but he must say something to comand respect or gala place, Griggs is an unaffected man of the people without a particle of cheap de magogy in his make-up. Not st all selfconsclous. he Is always and every where approachable, and his district loves to slap him on the back and .ay: "Hello, Jim, let's go fishing:" It is tine fiihlng. too. In the beautiful wa ter of the Innumerable brooks and creeks ef his district, teeming wuh "red-bellies." the finest pan fish that swims, tf any dependence is to be put la what Southwest Georgia says about It. and that Is no little. Well, what Joe Blackburn Is to a Kentucky bur goo, or Theodore Roosevelt to a Louis iana bear hunt, or John Sharp Wil liam to a Mississippi possum supper, that, and more. too. Jim Griggs is to ft Georgia fish fry. Tmagiae a party of a doxen or more tine fellows encamped on the velvet tanks of a rippling creek with numer ous placid pools of considerable depth, abounding with a game fish about the slxe and shape of the averagn man's Land and red on the belly.

At twenty-eight Griggs was elected solicitor general of his Juldlclal cir cuit. There, came a Kentucky horse trader that way. while Oilggs wu prosecuting attorney, and he soon grew up to be a very popular fella. Two strangers arrived la town and kept close wetrh on lhe horseman, and after a time they mede an at tempt to kidnap him. They were ar rested for it, and Griggs appeared to prosecute, but whrn he found that their, motive was to take the man back home and force him to marry a girl the sister of one of them and the sister-in-law of the other whom hr was alleged to have seduced, Griggs dismissed the charge on their promise to wake jufurther attempt to moli-st the tnsn.

True, the entire body may review the work of that council, but so far as the House of Representatives Is concerned taxes are levied by the committee on way and means when the majority Is In accord with the committee. It Is true- that several Monlnoi. tariff Dills failed, but the majority of those Demo cratic Congresses favored protection. We have had an era of octopua-chas-Ing In this country, but the biggest oc topus of them all has not been dis turbed, and Mr. Bryan, the master of his party, ha ordered that the pursuit of the lesser octopuses must be renew ed. The tsriff exacts more "off the people In the nay or predatory spoil in a month than all the railroads collect In a year.

At it best there la always trouble and aorrow and the question arise In thinking minds. Why was it any way? This 1 not the wall of the pessimist, but the result i of meditation on th part of those who still exist and ar shut out from the stream of busy men and women whose happiness appears to be derived from a never ceasing an plication to the working out of their respective plan for success in worldly affairs. Those only who ar of phllo sophlc mind can look on the moving crowds and not complain when ad verse physical condition denies them a place in the push. In these remarks there Is no Inti mation of the lack of happiness; it Is here In the midst of the shadow ef death and where th mourners go about the streets. . But after all there ts more unconsciousness in respect to happiness than there is to distress. But those, wno belong to the latter clasa are required by some kind of human law to keep it to themselves for fear they might disturb the se renity of others; but It is all right for th distressed to carry their trouble to God. There 1 a apeclal invitation ex tended to them to avail themselves of that source of divine comfort and the majority of the happy contingent are perfectly contented to be excused the recital of any sorrowful tale. There are some, occasionally-, who go to hur man agencies, pbtalnlng relief and comfort of substantial character, but they do it with fear and trambling. and moved six miles north of Morgan-1 face to face.
