The ladies were going to the seaside, aud hud tho us'ual amount of feminine baggage with them, iu all se venteen trunks. When they showed their tickets to the nnggnge-maater and desired him to check their seventeen trunks he demurred, saying that each passenger was allowed but one hundred pounds of baggage, and that tho fifteen extra trunks would have to be paid for. TJic ladies remonstrated, but in vain; so they de manded to know the additional charges they would have to pay, and were in formed that the extra truuks would cost tllem one dollar each.' Now it so happen ed that-a-passenger is carried over the road foe eighty ceuts, aud is allowed to take one trunk. The j'ouug ladies, re* -nernbering this, went to the tickets. They showed thcae.to the baggage man, and he checked tho trunks ua for fifteen passengers. The ladies saved threo dol lars by the opperation, und have fifteen tickets, worth' twelve dollars, into the bargain, for the conductor, of course, .on ly took up two tickets, aud, as these are good till used, tho company may be called upon any dpy to transport fifteen passen gers with fifteen truuks between New York and Morristown. Now, that is what wc call a very neat operation, and is anothoE argument to bo added to the many already enumerated in favor of the fitness of women to vote. Nothing?and blasted little of that. ??A good story is told of old Jimmy McCiill, who resided during the war iu East Tennessee. Guerrillas, represen. ting both parties, kept it so warm in that forsaken region, that it was dange rous to belorfg to either sidi. McGill had, in trying to ride both horse*, got several blackjackings, first from the reb els and thou from the Yankees, As they were dressed alike, he made several mis taken in trying to pass for cither Union or Southern, as he thought ho would suit tho crowd. At last he was met b)? a par ty whose politics ho couldn't even guess at, and the following conversation ensued: "Sir, are you a Union nmu ?" "No, sir," replied MoGill. "Arc you a rebel, then ?" "No sir." "Then what in the devil's name arc you ?" roared the captain. "Well, air," hesitated MeGill,"lo tell tho honest truth, I'm?nothing and but blasted little of that." A Terablo Tragedy. We find in the Atlanta Herald, of the ?1th, the following account of a terrible tragedy that occured in Burke Count)', Georgia, on the 28th of August, tho re sult of a difficulty between a teacher and a young man, one of his pupils. The teacher was .Mr. Alfred Alexander, aged forty years, and tho student, Mr. John II. Moss, ngeil about twenty-ono. A woman, the wife of tho teacher, was at tho bottom of tho affair. Though not in the discharge of any regular duty, it was her custom to observe tho conduct and deportment of the pupils, and when she considered thorn guilty of any breach of decorum to report thorn to her husband for roproof or other punishment. On last Friday -sho roported -young Moss, who denied the charge made by herj and I this led to animated and angry dispute. Alexander became enraged at the young man for the' partj taken by him in the. Controversy, and, advancing toward.'? Moss, drew a knife and stabbed him in * tho breast. Moss thereupon plunged a dagger into Alexander's heart, who" im mediately fell fatally -Wouiraed. J?st then Moss turned to leave,but. Mrs^ Alexander, who was at the side of her husband, wrung the knife from his hand! and admistcrcd one or two severe cuts to Moss in the back, near tho region of the spine. Tho result was that both lay mortally wounded on tho scene of tho conflict, and expired in a short time, the one within throe'minutes of the other. It is not definitely known whether Mosa died from tho wounds received from tho wife or husband as all were severe, and reasonably sufficient to produce death. The whole school and entire community were thrown into the deepest consterna tion ami oxeitemeHt over the aflair which' though short, was so decisive and terrible. ? A 8oiry"dompllment.
