SEASONABLE HINTS.

At this season many persons contemplate
travelling. To do SO with the largest amount of
comfort and advantage physical, social and mental,
the following suggestions made:
Take one-fourth more money than your actual
estimated expenses.
Acquaint yourself with the geography Of the
route and region of travel
Have good supply Of small change, and have
no bill or piece higher thar ten dollars, that you
may not take counterfeit change
So arrange as to have but single article of
luggage to look after.
Dress substantially. Better be too hot for two
three hours at noon than to be too cool for the
remainder Of the twenty-four.
Arrange, under all circumstances, to be at the
place Of starting fifteen or twenty minutes before
the time, thus allowing for unavoidable or
unantici pated detention on the way.
Do not commence days travel before breakfast,
even if that has to be eaten at daylight Dinner
or supper, or both, can be more BEAUTIFULLY
dispensed with than good, warm breakfast.
Put your purse and watch in your vest pocket,
and all under your pillow, and you will not be
likely to leave either.
The best and most secure fastening of your
chamber door, is common bolt on the inside,
fthere is none lock the door, turn the key that
it be drawn partly out, and put the wash basin
under it; thus any attempt to jimmy put
in another key, will push it out and cause racket
among the crockery, which will be pretty certain
to the sleeper and rout the robber
sixpenny sandwich eaten leisurely in the
cars is better for you than dollar dinner boltcd
at 4 station.
Take with you months supply of patience,
and always think thirteen times before you reply
to any supposed rudeness or insult, or inatten
ton.
Do not suppose yoursefspecialy and designedly
neglected If walters at hotels do not bring what
you call for in double quick time nothing 50 marks
the well-bred man as a quiet waiting on such
occasions; passion proves the puppy.
Do not allow yourself to converse in tone loud
enough to be heard by person at two or three
seats from you; it is the mark Of boor if in man.
and of want of refinement and lady-ike delicacy
if in \ gentleman is not noisy; ladies
are serene.
Comply cheerfully and gracefully with the
customs of the conveyances in which you travel
and of the places where you stop.
Respect yourself by exhibiting the manners of
a gentleman and lady, if you wish to be treated
as such, and then you will receive the respect of
others.
Travel is great leveler; take the position which
others assign you from your conduct rather than
from your pretensiOns

HOG CHOLERA CURED.-The hog cholera which
proved fatal in Tennessee Kentucky and the West
last year, found its way into Georgia Large num-
bers of hogs, mostly young, died of the disease
We learn that Dr. James q. Whatley, of Upson
county, lost thirty head last year, and seventysev
en- this year; every one that was taken died. He
concluded to try the effect of dry lot Accord
ingly, he penned his stock in dry lot, eleven be-
ing sick at the time. He kept them there without
water three weeks-the sick hogs recovered, the
disease was eradicated, and has not troubled him
any further. Several of his neighbors have since
tried it, with the same dattccing result Try it.

FASHIONABLE WOMEN.-An energetic and
truthful writer thus sums up the unhappy life of
fashionable women:
Fashion kills more women than toll and sorrow.
Obedience to fashion is greater transgression of
the law OF woman nature, greater injury to her
physical and mental constitution, than the hardshps
of poverty and neglect The slave woman at her
tasks will live and grow DID, and see two or three
generations of her mistresSes pass away. The
washer-wOman, with scarce a ray of hope to cheer
her in her tolls, will live to see her fashionable
sisters die around her. The kitchen maid is hearty
and strong, when her lady has to be nursed like a
sick baby 1t is sad truth that fashion pampered
women almost worthless for all the good ends
of human life. They have but little force of
character; they have still less power of moral WILL
and qnite as little physical energy. They live for
no great purpose in lite-they accomplish no great
ends. They are doll-forms in the hands of milners
and servants, to be dressed and fed 10 order They
dress nobody; they feed nobody; they instruct
nobody; they bless nobody; they save nobody.
They write no books, and set no rich examples of
virtue and womanly life. Ifthey rear children,
servants and nurses do ALL save to conceive and
give them birth. And when reared what are they?
What do they amount to, but weaker scions of the
old stock? Who ever heard of a fashionable
Woman's exhibiting any virtue and power of mind
for Whlchlt became eminent? Read the biographies
OF our great and good men and women Not one
OF them had a fashionable mother They nearly
all sprung from strong minded women, who had
about much to do with fashion as with the
changing clouds.
