RoBEKTsoS, daughter of j. R. Robertson,
Esq, of the former city. Rev DR. Burns
oficiased
1t was our good fortune to be present and
witness the imposing and interesting scene.
Tho grand old building was filed with anx-
ious friends, beauty and chiyalry, and as
the gallant groom and his fair betrothed
entered the room, followed by their chosen
attendants, all eyes were centered upon
them. The attendants were: Thomas
Sherwood, Miss Mollie Swami; P F.
Wilkinson, Miss Missouri Brown; Irwin
Dugan, Miss Laura Robertson; A. p Til
Ter, Miss Emma Ellis James Smith, Miss
Maggie Price. As the happy throng ap
preached the altar. DR.. Burns always i'm
pressive, rose and performed the functions
of his sacred Office. The marriage over,
and hacks being ready, the 1.-TWO hearts
thus nodded into one,' accompanied by q
large number of friends, started for the
Charleston depot, took the 1910 train and
arrived safe at home the same evening.

Texas Tonic Syrup,
A VEGETABLE COMPOUND,
For the Rapid and Permanent Cure OfChills
and Fever, or Fever and Ague,
intermittent and Remittent Fevers, Jaundice
and Enlargement of the Spleen,
or Ague Cake.
A YEGETABLR COMPOUND,

The ingredients of which this medicine is
composed are simple productions of nature
Astounding upon certain streams IN the state
of Texas, and was ever used by the abort
gins of that State as a specific for Fevers OF
all kinds, and especially Fever and Ague,
which they never failed to cure.
The wonderful operation of the Texas
Tonic Syrup in neutralizing the effects CT
malarious poison in the human system, can
only explain Its extraordinary agency IN the
speedy, thorough and permanent cure OF
Chills and Fever or Fever and Ague, and ali
their kindred diseases, in whatever form OF
BilioEs Complaints they may make their ap-
pearange.
AS its name imports, 1t is tonic of rare
medicinal virtues, composed of pure and
harmless ingredients, and are 50 united as
to form a compound alike skillful IN art
beautiful in appearance, and can be taken
with safety to the most delicate constitutions
1t is the result of lifetime of experience
and practice in a bilious climate, and was
never known to fail, even where all Other
remedies had been tried in vain.

A Good MOve-and a Lucky Han

We clip from Nashville paper the fol-
10 wing items:
BAGGAGE SMAsHING.-The carlessness of
hotel, railroad, and steamboat porters about
the baggage of the travelling public is one
of those nuisances which all have endured
The Albany argus says that baggage
smashing" has received proper attention in
Maine, and that State has added to her
penal code statute making the " willful in
jury of baggage misdemeanor, and pro-
viding penalty of Imprisonment for one
year, or fine of one hundred dollars on
conviction thereof Our own State would
do we'll to follow the example of Maine, by
enaeting a similar law which should cover
the destruction of baggage through carless-
ness as we'll as its willfnl injory." The
professors Of a. baggage smashing" are be-
coming entirely too numerous on our rail
roads This thing Of having ones trunk
ruined by being dumped down by some
beastly porter and the contents tumbled out
for the inspection and appropriation of the
mob is an intoleEable outrage on travellers,
and the rascal should either be soundly
beaten on the spot or else made to pay for
the damage. IS n. sF, [t.-E

Beecher.

81 am" said Mr. Henry Ward Beecher,
" thoroughly in earnest; desire TO see Gu
ba shake off her shackles and be absolutely
free-the most beautiful isle of the globe;
large enough to be separate and independ-
eRt; wise enough to be selfgOverning,"
and other high sounding phrases, that may
mean something or nothing.
Cuba is, to be sure, large enough to be
separate and independents So is Georgia
or Mississippi, or Indiana, or Illinois
any one Of these as large as Cuba. But
whether Cubanos are wise enough to be
self governing is matter that only time
and experience can determine. Hitherto
the success of the Spanish people In the
self governing business has surely not been
such as would appear to warrant the dog
matte assumption of the Plymouth pulpit
ezpounder 1t has been different with the
people of Georgia and Mississippi. The
| former, for almost a century, have shown
themselves wise enough to be seII-gOvernlDg.
1t was only recently discovered by class
of sympathetic souls, of whom MIR. Beecher
! is representative, that the people of these
American States are not wise enough to be
selfgOVerning.
1t Is undeniable that sympathies OF
Americans generally will be found with the
Cuban reVOlutionists, just as they will be
found with any other reyolutiOnists whose
Revolutionary operations are directed against
any other government than their own.
There is not much reason IN this American
sympathy for revolutionists. 1t is in the
nature of an instinct that delights in a
scrimmage," and always bets on the pOpu-
lar side. In the case of yirtuOus persons
like Beecher, who don't bet, it is clothed in
perfumed vapor-bath of God and hu-
mainly, and watts earnest sympathies
and patriotic red flannel shirts to the turbu-
lent Gisturbers of the peace in BorriObala
GahG So now it oyerlooks the partisan
Tyranny that brushes out liberty and the
right of selfgovernment in Georgia, and
loads the air with its pious declarations of
sympathy for some turbulent Spanish
creOles in the West Indies.
Sympathy for those who may be honestly
and wisely STRUGGLING to gain the boon OF
selEgoVernment Ia Cuba is a virtue that all
Americans may hope to witness in the prop
er time and place. But frst as a needed
publication Of the heart for the reception of
that virtue, there is need of some sympathy
for people that are striving to preserve the
blessing of self-gOVernnent with in our own
borders. First, sympathizing with unsatis-
fed CubanOs, pluck out the beam from your
own eye, that you may see better the mote
in the quite of your West Indian neighbor.
First supply the home demand for sympa-
thy with those who are struggling for self
government; then will be time enough to
supply the demand for export.
