It is like meeting.ojae of our chil dren who has been away Trom home, but to make' the welcome perfect it must not seem too common-place beside a half-dozen other pieces onj the same page. When asked, "Did you write that?"' one "must be able to answer, "Yes," without. blushing for shame. Aiv article in print does not read as it did in manuscript- Print bears somewhat the same rela- j tion, to manuscript that "Sunday clothes" do to,"every-days." I like the Sunday ones best, and I reckon every one else dbes. if they fit com fortably. Some! -people look like their best clothies made them feel uneasy; it must be because they pinch somewhere. I like nice things man there is a peculiar attractive-" ness in it. There are so few things' a woman can do ; I mean so few things that make any show for the trouble. A bright woman will attempt anything. She does not always suc ceed in her enterprises. Eve was bright.. We all know that she at- Ttempted to make herself as wise as the Creator. Continual remindings of her miserable failure does not al ways deter her daughters from simi lar mistakes. It seems to take a long time for suh follies to evolve out of our race. When a feinaletakes to writing it becomes a disease. It grows, multiplies, strengthens and rages, in fair weather and in foul; it is more ineradicable than malarial fever, or even leprosy. There is no specific for it but death. Marriage modifies it, both subjectively and predicatively, as in" the case of Mrs Augusta Evans Wilson, but it can not be considered a radical cure. It breaks, out at intervals even in the midst of the severest ordeals incident to a union of hearts. . Two hearts do not always "beat as One heart will bie. It will come sometime.

Once more the halls of Congress are resonant with eloquent appeals in- behalf of the men who ''fought; bled and died" in defence of the Union. The Grand Army of the Re public is on a grand march towards the National Treasury, eager to rid Uncle Sam of some of his surplus. Another pension bill is before Con gress. This time especial care is be ing taken to rid it of every feature that could offend the President and cause another veto, ft is estimated that its provisions will drain the treasury annually of $150,000,000. Of this stupendous sum, the South, wrecked and plundered and impov erished by the war, will have to pay at K'ast twenty-five millions. The toiling veteran of the "lost cause," who with maimed body and broken constitution is barely able to feed his helpless family, will have to be taxed to support in ease arid luxury the very men who burned their fen ces, stole his horses and insulted his family. He cannot educate his chil dren. He cannot buy good books or papers for them to read. He can not even supply them with the or dinary comforts of life. But all this makes no difference. This iniqui tous burden must be torced upon lim. This is not just, but it must be done to placate the "Grand Army." Four hundred thousand men that immaculate army numbers and they all demand the passage of this bill. If they had kept all the property they stole from the South (those of them who belonged to Sherman s contemptible, horde) they would hardly need pensions now. But doubtless they think that their valor saved the Union, and therefore the Union and everything therein are theirs by right of preservation. Poor and disabled soldiers on both sides ought to be pensioned. But these pensions should not be given to Northern soldiers, while Southern survivors are entirely neglected. The Southern people fought for princi ples which they conceived to bejust and right, and now since the war is over and our law makers are leg islating for the whole people, they ought to rise above the nariowness and meanness of sectionalism, and give pensions," if they must give them at at all, to all survivors, whether tbeyvwore the blue or the gray. This would show a patriotic and magnanimous spirit a spirit worthy of the nineteenth century and of the great American people. ties devolving upon him.

On December 26, 1869, eight yeart after the departure of her boy lover, Elaine became the wife of one of Henry County's most respected cit izens. Last week a man in the guise of-, an old tramp passed through Hamp- ' ton. He beheld the face of bis once promised bride, bright and happy with tbe love of a devoted husband, bright and interesting children and - the many comforts of a beautiful country home. Returning here he took the cars for his home in the fax West, not aa a tramp, however, but stout and hearty tnd with only, fa ew silvery hairs upon his templef. He told of the false report of the marriage of Elaine, which nearly drove him crazy ; of bis wonderful business success in California, and ast of the report that was brought across the continent that Elaine did not marry till 1869 and was now a widow. The latter part of the story he did not know to be false until he begged bread at her door. He says he will never visit Georgia again ; that his people are dead, his heart's love withered, and nothing remains for him but to 6pend the remainder of his life as best he can.

Several Grand Army posts have already censured bins for his reference to Generals Hancock and McClellan as "allies of the Con- federacy," and now his application for admission to membership in the Commandary of the Loyal Legion of tbe District of Columbia, accord ing to dispatches from Washington, has come to grief. The membership of the Loyal Legion is selected xilh great care, the character and services of the applicants being closely scru tinized. Ioealls could not pass mus- er. Senator Blackburn had stated that the military services of the Kan sas Senator consisted in being judge- advocate of a Kansas militia com mand, and that his principal em ployment was tbe prosecution of jay- hawkers fur robbing hen rooels. So the committee appointed to examine into Ingall's case reported that be was ineligible to membership in the first class for which he had applied, and tbe report was adopted.
