From the Georgia Southern. Certain Georgia papers occasionally excite themselves because Mr. Brewster, the Attorney General, being a typical gentleman of the old school. maintains some of the quaint and genial habits of the past. The Attorney General, though hale and vigorous, is not a young man. He has long been the leader of tiie most famous bar in this country. ‘As shrewd as a Philadel- phia lawyer” is an adage of much popularity, and to be the foremgst man of this proverbial class is to be an unconmonly strong man. The history of the Philadelphia bar is one of un- dimmed renown. In the past such lights of ju- ridical ability a loquence as Rawle, Hopkin- son, Binney, Dickerson, Sargeant, made it fa- mous, and its modern rank 1s not less distin- guished. Mr. Brewster, It ix true, will no doubt con- tinue to wear ruffles, and will persist in the heinous guilt of receiving agricolous Congress- men, while himself arrayed in a coat of silk vel- vet. But if the representative from the rural district will begin to read the argument of the Attorney General, in concluding for the goy- ernment. in the star route trials, he will find it difficult to put it down until it Is finished, and if he would peruse what Swiveller would call an ‘unmitigated staggerer,” let him lock to the re- ply to the letter of Marshal Henry to the Presi- dent, protesting against removal for incapacity and unfaithfulness. He will at once con- clude that the siik velvet and ruffles do not de- tract from clearness of statement and vigor of style. It istoo much the custom of newspa- which should give public sentiment the broper direction to give to such unimportant circumstances an importance which they do not leserve. After all is it heey | or biame- worthy thata gentleman should perfer to retain the manners and customs of his youth, es- pecially when they are most agreeable. D'Ar- tagnan, the hero ot Dumas, rather mournfully tells us “the times are always good when we are young.” He is indeed fortunate who has the Philosophy to perpetuate the good times and their pleasant memories, even at the risk of agitating the quidnunes of the press, A Hose that is all the Rage.

A short well-summarised biography of the “Father of his Country,” made up, as the author states in his preface,from the material furnished by Marshall, Sparks, Irving, Bancroft, Lecky, Green, and other biographers and historians. Its brevity, if it had no other merit, would coin. mend it to many in these hurrying times. The Oahspe Publishing Association ot New York have recently issued two volumes which ought to attract the attention of both the charitably disposed and the law makers and law executors of the country. The first is anew edition of the impassioned appeal for rohibition, published sometime ago by Mrs. Elizabeth Thompson, the well known hilan-4 thropist, entitled “The Figures of Hell,” pre- senting @ most startling array of facts and sta- tistics in regard to the evils of drinking spirl- tuous liquors. The other contains her ideas, expressed in the form of an interview, in favor of establishing kindergarten homes for orphans and other destitute children, as an ultimate substitute for prisons and poor houses. “The Art Amateur” (New York, Montague Marks, )opens the new year with better promises and prospects than ever, if possible, for the future, and its record in the past is a guaranty that they will be fulfilled. We do not know any other publication In which those interested in the industrial and decorative sides of art can get so much for their money. ee ge Pi is for Pocket-books. New York Lette A man who sold dolls at what every one con- sidered dirt cheap—most probably at a loss— was induced yesterday to give up business at the urgent request of the police, who noticed that the cheapness of his dolls always caused a crowd to collect, and that some one in that crowd always lost his or her pocket-book. The dolls were sold at a loss in order that the crowd RELIGIOUS NOTES.

Cuairs AND TaBLes.—The best chairs and couches are those which you like best, and which best conform to the natural contour of the human figure in repose. A couch should allow of the feet being put up, if necessary, and should be of sucha shape that you can ; He upon it, either full length or half length, with perfect comfort. To be really service: able, it should not be covered with pale-blue satin or maize-colored taboret, but with a good tapestry covering in a neutral hue, say sage-green or dark, rusty red, to wear well. The tapestry shoulda not be too tne to lie down upon, or even, in the privacy of family life, to lay one’s feet upon. And the whole couch should, if possible, turn toward the fire, so that its occupant may have his face toward the cheerful glow. At the same time a little wickerwork table—black and gold, if you will—may hold a lamp for reading. ‘As to chairs, a couple of good,well stuffed easy chairs, also covered in the same tapestry, and ar- ranged so as to look toward the fire, ought to be sufficient for luxury, while six or elght little ebonized and cane-bottomed gossip chairs are the simplest and prettiest “occasional” furniture you can have. The gossip chair has a curved k which exactly fits the natural curve of the body, and the seat slopes gently downward and backward, so as to give one the best pos- sible support with the least ity or awkwardness. With these pretty little clean cane seats, a black wickerwork chair, two eany chairs and a couch, you should have enougt ae for family and guests ina quiet house- ‘old. filled a large wagon, which hauled them to the eastern police-station, from which they were dis- tributed to the poor. —The English revisers of the Old Testament have completed the second revision as far as the Book of Proverbs. —Acorrespondent of an Episcopal paper com- plains because, with broad fields open in the west, many clergymen are stowing them- anes Sway, “herring fashion,” in eastern a —“There ts going to be trouble in the church this winter,” says the Interior; “trouble over those hats—those ladies’ tur hats, we mean, with immense brims, with crucified birds on them, and which are worn ndicularly on the back ofthe head.
