Charles F. Crlitp.
A story was for a long time in circula
tion that Charles F. Crisp in his youth
was an actor. It had its embellishments,
and circumstances were even related of
how he was tempted to leave the stage
for the bar, and yielded only alter a hard
struggle with himself. The whole story,
though very readable is fiction. It grew
out of the fact that Mr. Crisp's father
was an actor, and a very good one, it is
said. But the son never trod the boards.
He was born in Sheffield , England, where
his parents were temporarily living, but
was brought bv them to this country
while still n child, and is a thorough
Georgian in his education and entire
bringing up. He was admitted to the
bar u'ton attaining his majority, and
was at one time a common pleas judge
The appointment was leceived with

matter is handled now that the street

Dora Petlro'n Death.
Rio Janeiro, Dec. 8 Monarchists in
this city are disheartened by the death of
Dom Pedro, The supporters of the mon
archical idea will hold a public meeting
in Rio Janeiro Wednesday next to pub
licly express their grief at the death ol
the ex-emperor.
Paris, Dec. 8. The body of Doin Pe
dro, ex-emperor of Brazil has been placed
in a coffin in which, after the royal ob
sequies in this city, it will be conveyed
to Lisoon ana interred in the lamily
vault there.
Afterwards he went into politics, and his
success in that field has been so signal
that he is now regarded ns one ol the
democratic leaders in the south. Judge
Crisp is entering upon tilth term as a
mcmticr ol the house.
While the new speaker ranks well as a
sagacious man of affairs and parliamen
tarian, he is especially noteworthy for
the possession of a most equable temper.
While at all times earnest and sincere,
and courageous beyond questio , he
never grows unduly excited and never
loses command of himself. His experi
ence on the bench has been of great ser
vice to him in his legislative career. This
quality in bim was strongly marked
during the exciting times in the last
house. Judge Crisp was olten in the
forefront of the minority's engagements
with Speaker Reed, and at times led the
opposition lo the speaker, but he alwuys
carried himself with the utmost self-com
mand. Mr. Keed could never, by any of
the arts of fencing which he used so skil
fully while in the chair.succeed in ruffling
Ihc calm uud judicial spirit, ol the Geor
gia lender. This cool and imperturbable
temperament had much weight in Judge
Crisp's. favor. It is pre-eminently the
quality a speaker should possess, and
particularly when so much of general
party interest depends upon the action
of the house of representatives.
Judge Crisp while in congress served
with distinction on the election commit
tee. He has had charge of the demo
cratic side of all the important contested
cases during the past six years, and in
the last house, when so many democrats
were unseated, his services in making
clear the partisan action of the majority
were recognized as of great value to his
party.
Judge Cri.p is a handsome man, of
good figure, forty-five years of age, and
of a kind and companionable nature.
Personally he is one of the most popular
men in public life from the south.
Prom the Atlanta Constitution.
We have understood that Judge Ciisp
is a Cleveland democrat.
