Down the Hill.

The evening Of every mans life
is coming on apaee. The day of
life will soon be spent. The sun,
though it may be up in mid heaven
will pass swiftly down the western
sky and disappear.
What shall light up mans path
when the sun oflife has gone down?
He must travel on to the next world
but what shall illumine his foot
steps after the nightfall Of death
amid the darkness of his journey?
What question more important,
more practical and solemn for each
reader of our journal to ask him
self? That is a long journey to
travel without light, without a
guide, without a friend. Every
man must perform it. The time is
not far distant when all men will
begin the journey. There is an
evening star in the natural world.
Its radiance is bright and beautiful
and cheering to the benighted tray
eler. But Hfe's evening star is a
good hope Of heaven. It's beauty
and brillianey are reflected from
the sun of righteousness, whose
bright rays light up the evening of
life, and throw their radiance
across the darkness Of the grave
over Immanuels land. It has IL
Illuminated the footsteps Of many a
traveller into eternity. It is Of
priceless value. A thousand worlds
cannot purchase it, yet is offered
without money and without price
to him who wiz patiently and thank
fully receive it.

NeeessitY of SIeen.

There are thousands Ofbusy peo
pie who die every year f5tswanY- of
sleep. Sleeplessness becomes a dis
case, aud is the precursor of insan.
fly. We speak Of sleep as the i'm
age of death, and. our waking hours
as the image of life. Sleep IA. not
like death; for it IS the period in
which the waste of the system cea-
ses, or is reduced to its minimum.
Sleep repairs the waste which our
waking hours have made. It1ne
builds the system. The night is the
repair shop Of the body. Every
part of the system is silently over
hauled, and all the organs, tissues,
and substances are replenished.
Waking consumes and eXhausts,
sleep replaces and repairs; waking
is death, sleep is life.
The man who sleeps little, repairs
little. A man who would be wor-
ker must be a good sleeper. A man
has as much force in him as he had
provided for in sleep. The quality
Of mental activity depends upon
the quality of sleep. Men need on
an average eight hours Of sleep per
day. A lymphatic man is sluggish
and moves and sleeps slowly. But
nervous man acts quickly in eye.
rything He does more in an hour
than a sluggish man in two; and SO
in his sleep. Every man must sleep
according to his temperament-but
eight hours is the average. Who
ever by work. pleasure, sorrow or
by any other cause, is regularly dim
inishing his sleep is destroying his
life. A man may hold out for o
time, but the crash will come, and
he will die. There is a great deal
of intemperancc beside that Of in
dulging too freely in tobacco, opium
or brandy. Men are dissipated who
who oyertax their systcns all ca

who dies Of delirium tremens is no

Correspondence


AfK. EDIroR I have
made a trip or two through Mar
shall county and was so delighted
with that part Of it which used to
belong to your own county, that I
cannot refrain from expressing my
it. It is beautiful indeed, from
that section known as the Brick
Church country on as far as Lewis
burg, Immediately on the pike, and
I don't think can be surpassed for
natural beauty and artificial i'm
provement south of the Cumber-
land River. The country is level,
well watered, we'll timbered, pro-
ductiye and well adapted to growing
all kinds of grain. It's large grass
and clover fields, stretching SO far
that their utmost limits are almost
lost to view in the distance, clothed
here and there with numberless
groups of cattle, horses, sheep and
hogs, show its virtue as a clover
and grass growing country, as well
as the enterprise and industry of
her worthy citizens and efficient far
mers. The standard quality Of the
people seems to be hospitality, for
they cannot treat a stranger enough
at their houses, and when he leaves
they are more reasonable in their
charges than in any other section of
country.
But the principal object of this
correspondence is to speak Of an
old gentleman who lives in the wes-
tern portion of Marshall county,
named James Orr, about 81 years
old He is a native Tennesseean,
was born six miles from Nashville,
in a fort or block-house built to Sc
cure the safety of the early settlers
against the depredations Of the In
dams, who were at that time com
mitting horrible massacres all along
the frontier line. Fought under
Andrew jackson at New Orleans
in 1912, and can tell of the fall of
Packenham, and of the British dis
comfiture, with a readiness that
would surprise any one. He has
raised a family Of seven children
all of whom are still alive, and on
an average have eight children
each, making Sc grand children.
Among the grand children there
are 81 great grand children; an ag-
gregate number of children, grand
children and great grand children
Of ono, hundred and seventeen, that
he positively assured me he knew
of. Something more remarkable
still, he can read, without the aid
of glasses, the fine print of the
Nashville Union d American. He
cleared the cane from the place on
which he now lives, and his sons,
(three Of whom 1 saw, the young
est being 81 years of age, and all
of them white haired, are cultivat-
ing the same land now. He is
very vigorous and healthy and can
get about remarkably well for an
old man, being able to chop his own
wood and make his own fires with
out assistance. ANONYMOUS.
