From the Now York Tribuno of Monday. It appears that one of our illustrious legislators, at" Washington, is persecuted on accocnt of alleged bigamous prac tices. Wvi say alleged, because he ap pears to be on trial, or giving bail to appear, or waiting a verdict most of the time, so that the Tittle- modicum of the work he can give to- his seat in the House seems hardly worth while ; but nothing definite ever comes of it. Af ter a protracted turn in bigamy pro ceedings, and an eclipse by reason of the shadow cast upon his brightness by the many women interested in his lovely career, Bowen, M. C., emerges, puts on a fresh shirt collar, and takes his seat in the House of Representatives as serene as if he were not the prize of contend ing beauties, the male Helen of a Ho meric campaign. " Here I am," says Bowen to himself, when he is left to himself, and sits in the hall of wisdom among his monogamous peers ; " here I <irn, and I wonder who will come after me next." Bowen is not to blame for being attractive ; he was born so. But we question if he is not too attractive for. a member of Congress. The House is a tolerably conspicuous place. Bowen cannot sit in his seat without being the target of a hundred female eyes, half ol which may be eyes that have looked on him before and longed to have him for their own Bowen ; nay might not Bowen rise any day to a question of privilege, and, laying his hand on his waistcoat, look up to the gallery and say, " I have a feeling, Mr. Speaker, that I am mar ried, more or less, to half that gallery, and I should like to have it cleared." Such a man as Bowen draws too many visitors to the gallery. Thera must be some other sphere of life in which his attractions would interfere less with the public welfare. "We are not seeking, by mentioning this mitig-iting circumstance of this fascination to defend Mr. Bowen in bigamy, if he has committed it, or even in polygamy, if he has attempted to practice that without its accompanying religion, for we have no opinion of an ^inreligious bigamist or polygamist ; but what we desire to inquire is, if Mr. Bowen was a bigamist, why should he desire to be a member of Congress also ? If he had led a life that would render his old age liable to suits by various women for the possession of his temporal frame, what the world recog nizes as the outward and visible Bowen, why should he get into such a con spicuous place for the exhibition of his jjenitence as the House of Representa tives? Did he imagine that it is a kind of pillar of St. Simon ? We should however, be disposed to leave Bowen, B. G., to the law, and Bowen; M. C., to legislation ; but he appears now in a new character, to which our attention is called. The present Mrs. Bowen writes to the newspapers in deprecation of the persecution of her husband, who is describeed as thoroughly repentant of the past, and let us hope, anxious about the future. " He had been an orphan boy without relation or friends, had drifted into the company of gam blers and prostitutes, and had lived their life until it pleased the good God to lift him from the mire, and stir with in him the spirit of reformation and purification." It is no discredit to a person io be an orphan, unless it is by his own fault, like the unfortunate Frenchman who murdered his father and mother, and then pleaded orphan age in mitigation of his sentence ; but there is nothing in the constitution of our country encouraging one to be an orphan, a bigamist, and a member of Congress at the same time. We are informed, also that when he last mar ried, it was with a firm resolve to lead a temperate, studious and honorable life. For months he has adhered to this resolution, we also read, and yet he continues to be persecuted by prosecutions, just as if he had not re pented. We exceedingly regret that Mr. Bowen had a bad start in the world, and that he has until lately led a dis graceful life ; and we rejoice that he is resolved upon reformation-even if, wc were about to say, it costs him half his wives. But we remember that it is the plurality of wives that is the very thing in question. We sincere ly deprecate persecution of one repen tant. In all kindness, we should say, Go, Bowen, and sin no more. But don't go to Congress. Sit down in some inconspicuous place for a while, and grow in grace and in the knowledge of monogamy, before you appear upon a large stage of action and flaunt your penitence. It is a credit to you that you have left the " company of gam blers and prostitutes," but it is no recommendation to Congress that you were in that company so recently. Really, Congress is not a house of refuge, nor a reform school, nor a Magdalen asylum for men-however much it may have that appearance at times. Let us not get confused. It is still, even in this world of complex relations and natural selections, better to have married one woman at a time, than to have married four simultaneously, and to have repented of three of the mar riage?. An outraged law will exact its penalty one way or another, and no penitence can altogether stay it. This is an era of rather soft sympathy for criminals, and we never feel like rebu king it when the criminal is modest and is anxious to make neither his sins nor hi3 recantation too conspicuous. We must try, however, to preserve a place in the House <5f Representatives for those of unassuming. virtues. All cannot have the advantages of Bowen for making a record so bad that peni tence over it will be a recommendation " to Congress, Bowen may say, and he doubtless does, and has a'-right console himself with it, that there inore joy in Heaven over one rep* tant sinner .than over ninety and ni that never went astray, But Congr? is not Heaven. And* we can say Mr. Bowen, in the present complicati of his affairs, as Sergeant Buzfuz s? to Mr. Pickwick, " it would have be more decent in him, more becoming, better judgment, and in better taste, he had stopped away." Glad Tidings. * From all the country contiguous, and which seeks this city as its marl town, we are pleased to learn the d position of planters is pretty general plant corn an sufficient abundance meet their own wants-and of mar. to go back to their habits practiced ante-bellum times, of raising a sufficie cy of hogs to feed the force on th< respective farms. This is glad tidin indeed, and under its prospective infl ence, our spirits, which have been ma to flag under the depressing influen of the past year's agricultural oper tions, already begin to revive. Dour, less there are yet a few reckless of ca for the good of their suffering sectio who will plant largely of cotton to tl neglect of grain. Such are more to 1 pitied than despised, and we have- ho] that these erring ones, from the for of the good example set them and prc perity attending the practitioners, w: yet be brought to a proper appreciate of what is to their interest and to tl interest of their section. What planter is so blind that he ca: not comprehend the fact that the vei thing that makes corn high, makes cc ton low. Cotton at 25 cents per poun pays a handsome profit on the land ar labor employed to produce it. At less price, its production in Georgia a poor business. With the productic of 2,750,000 bales only, this price wi be guaranteed. Not only this amoui can be produced in the cotton States i America, but with it, on every plant! tion, can be made the corn necessary 1 subsist the stock and labor on it. W trust wavering planters will weigh we this matter before planting time, an try the experiment, and plant for th full of their cribs. Do not fear the pr< duction of too much corn, for be assuj ed that just in proportion as your cor crop is bounteous, will the price < your cotton tend upwards.-Columbi Sun. Tbe Attorney a Blackguard. Touching felicious endings, a We tern correspondent supplies a legal inc dent that will be appreciated we know Several years ago, when one of ox present Justices of the Supreme Cou: was District Attorney of a neighborir county, rather a laughable incident Oi curred as related by himself. Cou: week he used to occupy a bed room ? Lewis' Hotel, the principal hotel at tl county seat. He had his books au papers in this room. Here he dreV h indictments, and in ijaportant cases, 1 used to direct the s.'.anff to bring tl people's witnesses for preliminary e: amination. It happened at one session that I had an important murder case comin on. The celebrated General (now Judgi Nye was counsel for the defendan He examined the witnesses as usua and took careful minutes of what the would state on the stand. He foun that a lady was the most importai witness for the people, and ho also di: covered that she was rather excited an high-strung, and a fast talker. Apprehensive of trouble, he thougl he'd caution her a little. So he toi lier when she came on the stand not i talk. " Pay attention," says the Dil trict Attorney, " to my questions, an answer them, but don't talk ; and whe Nye comes to examine you, you mu? be very careful and don't get excitec for he is a great blackguard, and wi try to get you mad. Just pay attentio to his questions and answer them, n matter how often repeated or hoi apparently silly, but don't allow hir to get you off your balance." The District Attorney and witnes parted for the night. The next da; the case came on. The District Attor ney called his witness, and she wen through her evidence on the part o the people to his perfect admiration and he handed her over to Nye. He went along awhile very smoothly Pretty soon he began to crowd her anc she began to " flare up ;" he crowdec th"* more and she resented the more ant soon they had a regular breeze. Finally having lost self control, she broke ou on him as follows : " I won't answer any more of youl contemptible questions ; you're a nasty dirty blackguard, and the District At torney told me so." After the laugh had partly subsided N j said : ? "What ?the District Attorney told you so ? When and where did he tell you so?" " He told me so last night in his bed room." The scene that followed this answer may be readily imagined. In the midst of the shout, Nye told the witness she might' pass.' A SKUNK STORY.-The following is good because it is said to be true : James H-, a fixy young gentleman of the town of H-in a neighboring coun ty, went out into the country to spend the evening at a plain old farmer's, who, by the way, had a very pretty daugh ter. James, who had used a good deal of musk in perfuming, was having a delightful time of it, and was confident that he had made an impression, until he went to the supper table. The old gentleman, who knew no more about Musk, Eau de Cologne, &c, than a Chinaman does about Christianity, at once detected the smell of something unaccountable to him, which did not set so well on his olfactory organ. After sitting a little while and curling up his nose a few times, he turned to a young man who was living with the family, and said: "John, 111 be drat if them dogs hain't killed another polecat don't you smell it?" James kinder wilted. ? BEAUTIFUL EXTRACT.-A traveler who spent some time in Turkey, relates a beautiful parable which was told him by a dervish : 'Every man has two an gels, one on his right shoulder and one on his left. When he does anything good, the angel on the right shoulder writes it down and seals it, oecause what is done is done forever. When he does anything evil the angel on his left shoul der writes it down and waits till mid night; if before that time the man bows his head and exclaims : 'Gracious Al ! lah ! I have sinned-forgive me,' the angel rubs out the record ; but if not, at midnight he seals it, and the angel on the right shoulder weeps." WHY ONE SHOULD NOT SWEAR.-An article in the Pittsburg Preacher, gives eight good reasons why a man should not swear : 1. It is mean. A man of ^high stan ding would almosfcas soon steal sneep as swear. 2. It is vulgar-altogether too low for a decent man. 3. It is cowardly-implying a fear either of not being believed or obeyed. 4. It is ungentlemanly. A gentle man, according to Webster, is a genteel man-well bred, refined. Such an one wili no more swear. than go into the street to throw mud with aloafer. 5. ' It is indecent-offensive to delica cy and extremely unfit for human ears. 6. It is foolish. *' Want of decency is want of sense." As a lady and gentleman were admiring a poplar tree, the latter gal lantly remarked, " If I add you (u) to it, it will become popular." "Better add * us,'" she replied, " and it will be come populous." He took the hint and married her soon after. imo. ~ 18713 AFTER A LONG EXPERIENCE au SEEDS MEN, it is with groat confidence that wo invito the attention of Planters and Gardeners to the present supply of JOHNSON, BOBBINS & CO.'S PLUMB&LEITNER AUGUSTA, Ga.
