Words of Soberness and Truth

With as little use as any one,
and no respect whatever, for the
carpet Dagger from the North, we.
however, heartily endorse the fol
lowing invitation to good North
ern people to make their homes
in the South, taken from the Cou
rier journal
The South will gladly welcome
the newcomer who will fetch here
something more than carpet bag
full of schemes of plunder. The
Yankee who comes to us with a
hand ready for the plow-share or
the loan and the heart of a man
beating inside of him will find no
bar across his path. He has only
to 60 to honest work to make his
way; and if he be quick and kind
and courteous he will find a peo-
pie wondrous impressive and ap-
preciative.
But he must bring mind free
of the proscriptive and the prose.
lyting bias. He must not set up
as reformer. He must expect
10 learn more than be teaches, and
he must not expect to get an Office
as soon as he arrives. Nay, more
he must keep civil tongue in his
| head and fall into that vein OF
Cancellation which is demanded o.
the stranger and is always practic
ed by the stranger who is wise, il
an old community which has SCI

Mr.. j. r. Graves, a Baptist
Minister of some celebrity,
preached in our village church
on the 18th inst. Quite a large
audience, for this vicinity, were
attracted together, some with
feelings in favor of the preach
er but the greater part with
distaste to han and his Suppos-
ed doctrinesS
We believe that every one
who heard him was pleased,
which is more surprising from
the. fact thas his sermon was
altogether doctrinal. To the
Baptists he showed their doc
trines in q clear and pleasing
light; all others he convinced
that his sect was not so narrow
and harsh in their views as has
been generally thought. After
listening carefully to him we
came to the conclusion that
even he was mistaken in beliey-
ing that there was any great
marked distinction between
the Baptists and other sects OF
Christians, IN what he consid-
cred the necessary fundamen.

THE FAMINE IN PERsIA.-The
stories of the Persian famine, re-
sulting from long drouth and crop
failure last year, are terrible. Tie
people are literally dying of huu-
ger in the streets of Teheran. In
khaOrassln parents are selling
their children as slaves to the Tur-
conans in order to keep them
alive and in Ispahan, as is said,
men have been seized in the act
of digging up corpses to serve az
food for their starving families.
In az-Kerman and Yezd the
wretched families endeavor to sup
port life on the grass and roots
which they may find in the neigh
borhood and as might be expected,
pestilence follows hard on the
footsteps of famine between them,
the half of the kingdom of Persia
is being rapidly depopulated.

How to Swarm and Hive
Bees.

/ have kept bees for thirty-one
years: have had good luck with
them aud great deal of pleasure
from them.
You have, no doubt, often heard
bee men speak of bees hanging
out: or in other words, coming out
on the outside of the hive and
play there for several days. 1
have had them commence making
combs under the hive; tor fear L
should lose a swarm, have spent
a great many weeks in watching
them.
Two years ago, 1 thought, as /
was watching them, | could hear
them whispering and saying, "Do
give us a home.n So I went and
got an empty hive, and washed it
out with salt, and water and mo-
lasses, and set it close by the 9TH
er hive where the bees were hang
ing out; took a big pan and a
house brush, wet the pan and
brush with the sweetened water,
then brushed the bees very care
fully in the pan and turned it up
against the empty hive, and let it
remain there, while ! took the old
hive away about ten or fifteen feet.
Then ] retured and shook the pan
very gently, and the bees all went
in and went to work like busy
bees, assure you.
| made five swarms in the same
way, and / never had bees work
| better. Last season I had but
! two swarms; they came out at the
same time and settled on tree
close by, and l hived them in the
old fashioned way.

For my caps on the same hive,
! I have tin frames seven by nine,

lower part, which sets on the
main hive, on the two inch hole.
When [ take off the cap l have a

Concealed Weapons,

= - \
hear against the custom of car
rying concealed Weapons
Every paperis filled with it;
and for years past it has been
the great topic. Law after law
has been passed against it, and
yet, against all the preaching
and laws, the custom still con-
tinues. 1t has found no open
advocates whatever, but yet,
there is a feeling of personal
independence in every Ameri-
can which makes him resolve
to act as he pieases in the mat
ter. Does his carrying a pistol
iDjure his fellows7 does it in
iure limits it against any COM
mandment of CODY No. But
the opponents of the custom
say it is the great cause of so
many homiciles. 1t is not SO.
Count up the violent deaths
and see how many can be laid
to the carrying of concealed
weapons. They will be found
but few indeed. But ifitcaus-
eS even a few the custom should
be put down! Not so; for we
verify believe that more violen-
ces are prevented by the custom
than it ever causes. Fearis the
great instrument in the govern
ment of the world. We will not
fight one another often, when
custom requires the fighting to
be with pisto3s. Fighting with
clubs, fists and whatever weap-
on may be seized upon, has caus-
ed more deaths than dangerous
weapons prepared before hand
for general emergencies. The
} custom protects the weak and
mild ones Of the community
