MARRIE!) FOU MONEY. A Young I-n:ly Wrul? a Ilrakeman lo '?ave lier Own Fortune. Atl'int'i ?\tt-Apjttal. The following remarkable ?tory was imparted toa Pott- Appeal reporter by a railroad man. The names are purposely charged, hut the facts are vouched for, and will be recognized by thc few familiar with tlic facts in this city : It was nearly time for the car? to leave. Passengers hurried to and fro looking after their baggage. A carriage drove up and stopped in fituil of the car shed. A beautiful young womun leaped out and rushed through the crowd and into the baggage or. Confronting thc conductor she said, "Sir are you a married man .'" "I am, madam,'' he answered. Turning to the baggage master she asked, "Are you married, sir?" "I am not," was the reply. "Will you marry nie?'' she asked. "No, madam; I will not marry you; what are you doing here anyhow? The cars will leave in a few minutes and you had better get oil"." Henton, the brakeman, who was sitting near with his hands ?ti a bucket of axel grease, looked up at thc young lady and said: ".Madam, I will marry you if you will wait till I get this grcar>e o if my hands.'1 "Very well," she answered ; you will do, come along with me." They walked to thc carriage together, entered, and drove rapidly away lo thc office of Mr. Merritt, ari attorney. Arriving hence, the lady introduced Benton to the lawyer. "Are you of age ?" queried .Mr. Merritt. "I am," replied Henton. "Will you marry this woman ?" "I will, sir." .'And for a consideration will you promise to leave ibis country after you have married her ?" "Yes, I will do that." "Then (tossing him a fifty dollor note) lake this, go buy you n suit of clothes and come hack." In a short while Benton returned, and, accompanied hy his bride expectant and Mr. Merritt, proceeded to a minister's, where the marriage ceremony was briefly performed. Then taking thc groom a*ide, Mr. Merritt said: "The young lady to whom you are married was Miss Ger trude Tcnuilcton. She is the heiress of a considerable fortune. When her father died and left her un orphan ho made a will, of which I am the executor. The will provides that the legacy bequeathed to Miss Templeton should bo left with ???- rt_ _ /?_:.-,.1 .. r I_r...i_t._1 ..ll. WHI.1UII, It iii' nw OJ ile] iiiiiii. i n, .mil not delivered up by bim until tho young lady AMS married. We have frequently attempted to get the money but failed. Hoing limited in ber support, Miss Templeton has scarcely been known in social circles. I have worked up thc case in this way to obtain the inheritance for her. Now, get your wife and go willi me to Carson and demand the heritage." The three then repaired to ihe office of Mr. Carson, and Henton having been in troduced ns tho husband of tue yoting lady, the deliverance of the inheritance was asked. At first it was refused. "Do you not know me, and is not my stand ing good in tho city ?" asked Mr. Mer rill of C.WBon. Thereupon thc money was surrendered. "Now," said Mr. Merritt to Henton, "go get you a boarding house nnd call again to sec mc to morrow. In the menn time let this lady take care of herself. They parted, anti ?.he next day Henton called, according to their engagement. "Well, my friend," began tho lawyer, "wo want you to go to some foreign coun try for two or three years ; what consid eration do you demand?" "I don't know; what is my wife worth?" "Wc will say $200,000. What do you ask to leavo ? "I can't say ; what aro you willing to give mo?" "Oh, wo wish you to ho satisfied ; how much will you take?" "Well, sir, l want my wire." "* "But did you not promise for a cousid cration to depart tho country after you married her?" "True, I did ; but I have changed my mind, mid will bo content with nothing else but her." "You cannot get her; you must bo bound by your promiso; name the sum." "I nindi accept nu oilier consideration. By tho jaws of tho State sho is my wife, and I f'iall have her." "Well, here, tako this." (Handing him five I? .udred dollars.) "Go seo whether she ia .niling to bo your wife, nnd let mo know what you decide upon." Benton called on his bride and obtained permission to visit her again and again. In tho course of n few months they had agreed tolivo as man nnd wife. Mean while Mr. Merritt inquired about Benton, nnd learned that ho was of a splendid family. Tho inheritance was delivered into their possession, and to-day they aro living ?ri Atlanta in nlHueut circum stances, tho happy parents of a house hold of bright children. This is no fiction.

Having lingered to tho last allowable moment "X? i t K iljo member0 of my family "hereinbefore mentioned"-aa tho legal documents would term ?hem-il was ofter 10 o'clock at night wi.en I returned to headquarters for iipal instructions, and heforo going to tho General's room I or dered two whiskey toddles to bo brought up after mo. W hen tlioy appeared I off ered one of tho glasses to Jackson, hut ho drew back, saying: "No, Colonel, you must excuse rae ; I never drink intoxicating liquors." "I know that, General," said I, but though you habitually abstain, ns I do myself, from everything of tho sort, there are occasions, ana thia is one of them, when a stimulant will clo us both good ; I would neither take it myself nor offer it to you, So you must mako an exception to yohr general rule and loin me in a toddy to-night." Ho again shook his head, but, never theless, took the tumbler and began to sip its contenta. Presently putting it on tho table, after having but partly emp tied it, he said : "Colonel, do you know why I habitual ly abstain from Intoxicating drinks ?" And, on my replying in tho negativo, ho continued : "Why, sir, because I Uko tho fnsto of then), and when I discovered that to be the caso I made up my mind at once to do without them altogether."- Col. A. Z?. Poteler in the Philadelphia Ttmtt. - The 8an Francisco Bulletin says the Swiss who have migrated to tho Pacific const have ?nado prosperous settlers. They are nntuSUy mountaineers, and of course Uko a hilly country. That part of California which is most attrac tive to this class of immigrants is gener ally designated as a grazing country. The Swiss have a large number of dairies, and aro acquiring moro. Their butter and cheese rank among the best known in the San Francisco market. They have tho faculty of getting tho most out of tho hills :,nd mountain slopes. They know how to make thrifty viney inls on steep hillsides. The volume of Swiss migra tion to California has never been large, but a steady ?ucre.no has been noted from year to year. - Gold is being washed from alluvial lands within tho limits of Gainesville, Ga., which pays 00 cents to the pan. The city covers n deposit of gold-bear ing material which should be utilized, and no doubt will bo ns soon as the canal Atlanta so much needs passes through that section. Tho bed of that canal for a distance of forty miles will be cht through veins and deposits of gold-bear ing ore. Is The End ?ar I Professor Proctor, thc eminent astron omer, has gone and mentioned some very I unpleasant facts. He finds that thc comet ? of lo*? and thc comet of 184.'$ were the . same, and that the comet of 18>0 was ( still the same, ila period of revolution I having been reduced by its passing so t near the sun as to bo impeded by thc i corona and its velocity lessened. In I ' ?0 it passed still nearer; and, after a < few revolutions, it must fall into the sun. t The vast momentum of the comet being t converted into its equivalent of heat will i cause a sudden outburst ol solar energy I like that caused in the ?tar in the coristcl- I lation Corona a few years ago. That star ? ?nc cased in light and heat several hun- ? drcd times its lormcr [tower, and, after a t few days, subsided to its former size -ninth i magnitude. Now, if our sim should in- ? crease a hundred fold its power, every I living thing, animal and vegetable, would ^ bc destroyed in the course of a few hours. 1 The sea would boil, and possibly be whol ly converted into steam ; tho rocks would bc vitrified, and there would heno safety even in thedeepest cavern. Don't smile, gentlemen, for this isa very serioun piece . of business. When will it happen ? I Perhaps at the next revolution. Prox- \ imity to C-e sun at its perihelion reduced f it* period (rom 17? to M years. A pro- f portionate reduction from M would make | its next perihelion unpleasantly near, t There is little comfort to be lound in the r fact that thc effect of this new fall to the ? sun will he very transient. lu a few days after the big blaze the sun will re sume its normal heat, hut the earth and Venus will he cinders, and thc ocean - which had been vaporized by the heat - will bc falling in cataracts of rain like Niagara. All the monuments of man,all his history, all memory of hito utterly gone, and all interest will haver ceased in reform within thc Democratic party in this State. Thc return of tho comet of 18#U will be watched with intense inter est. Meantime, ono may draw some comfort from the fact that geology furn ishes no record of such un event. All the millions of years of geologic cycles give no hitit of snell a catastrophe in for mer ages. If such things occurred,lhere would bc among the millions of stars frequent blazes of this kind, and there would be a mark or so to show when it happened here. This, however, is not a very satisfactory argument. The fact that il luis not happened does not show that it will not happen.- -Ituftimore Amer ican. HON. A. II. STEPHENS.--Tu day be ing the seventieth birthday of Hon. Alexander H. .Stephens, of Georgia, he will received tho congratulations of his friends of all parties. And few men de serve them more. His career has been moro extended than any other mun s now prominent in public life. He was elected to the Georgia Legislan.re in 1835, and served seven years in both Houses, and was first chosen to Congress in 1843, serv ing um'U ISti'J, when he declined a re election. His subsequent career as Vice president of the Confederacy is well known, as is also his course during recon struction, and his late services in Con gress since 1873. He has illustrated, in his public life, the old-time characteris tics of simplicity in a degree seldom shown in thc changed conditions of our latter-day politics. He is a type of the conservative, yet progressive, man, who docs thc- real work of le,- luiion. The wish will be universal tba ie may yet he spared for many years to temper with his wisdom and iustruck with his counsels tho men of th^ future as he has thone of tho past.- Walkington Pott, No CONVICTS FOR THE COLUMPIA CANAL.-The Columbia Register says: "Tho whole number of convicts, white, black, malo and female, is 7<r)4. Of these the following are hired out under con tract : The Greenwood and Columbia Railroad, 43 ; Messrs. Cahill & Wise, 132 ; .u?. Ii. ?. Pringle, iS4 ; hie'. John C. Seegers, 25 ; total 3%. This leaves .'128 in the yard. Of these 31 are women, 7 aro disabled by virtue of the loss of a leg or arm, 20 are in tho hospital, 100 are employed by Mr. Dibert in his shoe man ufactory, and a considerable number of boys nnd broken down men. Besides theso 107 are employed upon the premises. This leave-; in tho yard (JO o?heis, most of whom are either boys, women or disabled men. The above figures show that there is absolutely no available force to put to work on the canal, there being not moro than fifteen or twenty able-bod ied mun .vim can be used for this pur pose." A PRETTY Gnu, AS A SHOEMAKER. - Atlanta can bonst of a genuine curios ity-a live female shoomakcr-young, pretty and industrious. Having occasion to send my little nephew with a pair of boots to bo mended, he surprised me on Iiis return by remarking that "she" said so and so about the hoots. I then learned for tho first time that we had in our neighborhood n young girl under twenty years of age. the daughter of a shoo makcr, who daily works at the Irado her self, not only mending, but making in good stylo both boots and simes. For several years past sho has been thus en gaged and has won the respect and pat ronage of a large circlo ol' appreciative families-Ah nita J.rtter in the Sdf?n?ah News. To THE BOYS OF 76.-Boys of 187G, let us talk together. We hear mutter ings of dissatisfaction existing in sever al counties based upon recent laws enac ted by tho Legislature. Well, you are men of ress' a nnd must admit that laws cannot bo passed to please every one it is an impossibility. Don't let us act too hasty, out give the laws a fair trial and if they prove to our disadvantage then go to work to have them repealet'. Don't threaten tho party, "stand to thu rack, fodder or no fodder." If you are dissatisfied with what the representatives of the party have done, go bael- on them, don't charge it to tho parly.-Lancaster Ledger. THE FRONT G ATE.-Il was night. The sable goddess stretched her leaden scep tre over tho silent, slumbering world, and they were still swinging on thc front gate. He had placed his arm tenderly around her graceful waist and drew her clo'0 to his throbbing breast to -?rotect her from the falling dews of heaven. Her head was resting on his strong, man ly shoulder, and the love-light was shin ing in bei lustrous eyes as bright ns Ibo head light of a locomotive. Ho looked her earnestly in tho eyes and passionate ly murmured : "Jemima, is your folks hnd a mess o' spring peas yet?" - Ex-Gov. Vance, of North Carolina, spoko words of truth and soberness in the United States Senate a few days since when he eaid "the burdens of a high protective tariff fall with tho greatest weight upon the agricultural classes, and so do more to retard tho growth and im pair the wealth of the South than any other cause." Tho farmer has to pay a heavy tax to the protected manufacturer on everything ho buys, whether it be plougshares, machinery, hoes, farming utensils generally or clothing for his family and himsel.. Yet nlthough-he is BO heavily taxed in the production of his crop, when it is produced he has no pro tection for himself, but has lo bring bis production in competition with thc world. No wondor Southern planters are all tho time kept with their "noses to grind stone." Sonator Vaneo hit thc nail square DD the head.

"On my la-', vnynge home from Eng ?uni, -une '.Ince years ago, in one of thc 'unard steamers, I noticed one morning, ift? . r a ?cw days oui of port, a young nan hobbling about on lin: upper ?leek, lUpported by crutches and seeming tr nove wiih extreme diflicully and no little ??aili, lie was well dressed and of ! ex ceedingly handsome countenance, but bit i in Iii were somewhat emaciated and hit Face very sallow and bore the traces ol nug mullering. As he seemed to have ru iltciidant or companion, he at once at traded my sympathies, and I went up t< lim as he leaned against the taffrail look ng out on thc foaming track which tin (teamer was making. " 'Excuse me, my young friend,' I said touching him gently o;i thc shoulder you appear lo be an invalid and bardi; iblu or strong enough to trust your*el unattended on nn ocean voyage; but i y ou require any assistance 1 am a robus md healthy mau, and shall be glad ti help you.'
