Ante-dating these brill- iant events in the high social circles of France, have been the intermar- riages of the daughters of the fami- lies of the Montgomerys, the,Pontal- bas, the Slidells, the Miltenbergers, the Lapices, the Bosques, and other noted families in this city, with the Rochefoucalds, Montmorencies, the De Choiseuls, the Montgomeries, and others ot the highest rank ef the old aristocracy created by and ident- ified with the Bourbon dynasty of France. Philosophy and republican simplicity may be provoked by these incidents into grave disquistions up- on the appropriateness, the policy and eventual felicity of such mar- riages. We have no desire to en- gage in such disquisition, nor are we prepared to embark in a tilt against so deep-rooted a propensity and tendency of human nature to elevate their social and personal consequence through titles and associatens with conspicuous names and historic char- acters, Butof this we are quite confident, that this apparent conces- sionto legitism and absolutism sons and daughters of this republic has only a social signit- icance, and does not imply any sur- render of that true republican senti- ment which resists and rejects all those political ideas and tendencies and dogmas which are usually re- garded as included in the designa- tions of Bourbonism and _aristocra- cy- renown. in Cen. John B. Gordon, of Geor_ gia, home from Europe proud of his country. He said to a reporter: ‘It is enough to make an American proud to walk through the streets of London, with its civil- ization ot two thousand years, and see American implements, Amen- can sewing machines, American tools and Armherican goods displayed on every hand and know that Amer- ican watches are being sold in the stores and American fields are feed- ing the English people and Ameri- can tactories are beginning to clothe them.’” Yes; and the very fellows who are to-day competing with England in the shops of Lon- don and Manchester, are making {the labering vopulation of this j country pay double price for their i goods. in the name ot protection (7) }to American imdusiry. God save tthe mark! And they spend their comes | il-gotten millions in lebbying at | Washington for fictitious support, instead of attending to their legiti- ‘ mate business in their mills as the | farmer who pays them the heaviest palways does. not play or sing: not feel humiliated. excelin some other accomplishment; even if you do not you can possess that one {grand accomplishment to which others are accessories, that ot being a lady—a true woman, gentle and grecious, medest and loveable. Woman’s POwer. The mother’s solicitude,‘the wife’s patience and anxiety, the sister’slove have proved 1n nine cases out of ten the strong chord that pulled at the heart of the wanderer till son, or husband. or brother could no longer bear the strain and loosend it by comming nearer and nearer home. Some woman’s hana holds the key, unconciously and carelessly perhaps but holds it almost to every man’s heart, and the closed doors will be unbarred to ber and yield to her touch, when no other power wiil stir them on their rusty hinges. Let any woman who finds herself thus inside beware how she works. In clearing eut the darkened chambers so that Goa’s light can enter. let her work with such skilltul touches ot prayer and tenderness as shall do something better than stir, like an unskillful servant, all the dust to see it settie thicker in another place. It is no hght work, this leading of hu- man souls, and any woman who un- dertakes it needs to bring to it all there 1s of her. She will need her knowledge of God and perhaps nev- er discover how little she possesses till shetriesto open it for anether soul to measure her treasure. She will need her knowledge of people, | her discrmination of character, her intuitive discernment of mental con- ditions, and her sympathetic percep- tion of feeling. All the brightest and best that she can command 1s net too good nor too fair ta be used in the saving of what 1s best and fair- est in others. How a Widow Hoes Her Rows. From the Atlanta Constitu ion. There is a widow lady in Floyd county who has two little sons, aged respectively ten and twelve years, and she rented land for them to cul- tiyate last vear and was furnished supplies by the landlord to the amount of $75, which was paid for in extralabor. These little boys and their mother made six bales of cot- ton, halt of which was their part, and enough corn to furnish them with bread this year.
