wrote TO the editor ct a horticultural
journal, asking what plants would DO
suitable additions To dried grasses for
winter ornaments. che editor replied:

When the man read this, he fairly boiled

simple question, should have no support
from him.
This reminds MS Of an English traveller
whose conscience would not allow him

in France, where he was staying, the
walters were so accustomed 10 hear
EngliShmen use strong language, that
they considered him milkSop, and neg.

A COwHIDING AFFAIR.

JOuesOOiO ECuo AlNep.Js mug. IL
Last Saturday, after DR.. Archibald HOss
returned with the corpse of jim WoEley.
the Carter county fiend, be was informed
that a colored boy who lives in this place,
named Mosely, had been using his lip very
freely and saucily in regard to his prOcur-
irg Worley's body. Learning that Mosely
was on the base bail grounds with several
other colO-ed parties, engaged in the pas
time Of the bat, the Doctor procured a
heavy cowhide and went in search Of the
offender. He found him with the crowd
congregated on the grounds, when
he Immediately proceeded to give
him a severe flagellatiOn. The affair
created considerable excitement, and some
made threats of violence upon the Doctor,
but an exhibition of pocket hOwitZer had
a very salutary effect upon those disposed
to interfere in behalf of MOsely. General
" speaking, we must condemn the use of
violent means, but this punishment was
richly merited. Such indiscretiOn, under
all the circumstances, when the community
was horriied and incensed by the most
terrible outrage known TO the annals of
crime. and the Doctor was doing nothing
more than duty, should not have been
passed by unnOticed. MOsely is bad
boy, aud is charged with an attempt some
time since Of perpetrating a similar crime
10 that of Morley.

DISEASES OF THE EYE AND EAR.

contest the titles Of a corporation that had
the sympathy Of Tie Bullock Ring, and the
consequence was, that while some taebly
protested. Others compromised '-i believe
that is the wOrl-aud many We're inCCnti-
nently ousted-
Those who protested were threatened
with suits in the Feneral Courts at SavaI :
nab, and, when all other threats failed, this
was usually successful. 1t mus. be re-
membered that the Federal courts Were
much more rabid in their partiSanship n
the early days of reconstruction than they
have been since, though they are bad
enough even now. In those times it was
only necessary TO briug a respectable
citizen Of conservative tendencies before
a Federal Court. and his fate was sealed,
and il is no wonder that the owners OF The
lands claimed by the Georgia Land and
Lumber Company made sacrifices in order
TO escape the blazing wrath Of the judicial
politicians And so the land-gra5bers have
fattened and fiOurished, at the expense Of
an unfortunate people.
1t is the general impression here that the
Georgia Land and Lumber Company have
no valid title to the lands which they claim
to own. In the mean time several suits
are pending in the Superior Courts Of Dodge
and Telfair counties, which the attorneys
of the Eastman Company will not allow to
be brought 20 a hearing.

pendent says, the Archbishop of Paris has
given rise to another diplomatic difficulty,
owing to the pastoral letter which was read
TO a few Of the faithful in the Cathedral,
and pasted on the wall for a short time.
No journal dared publish it. Some idea Of
its tenor may be formed from the fact that
first, it was written Immediately after Mgr.

had several interviews with the Pope. Sec
ond, Marshal McMahOn went directly to

"AWEARY OF THE WORLD"
A Nashville Man Takes His Own
Life at n McMinnviIIe Hotel.


Last Wednesday, B. F. Bush, who has
been employed as a guard at the peniten-
tiary for several years, stopped at the
Turner House, McMinnville, together with
friend by the name of Pardon, the two
being on their way to the home of the lat
ter, in Grundy county. The two remained
in McMinnville several days and last Sat
urday Bush purchased six grains of NOR
phine at the drug store Of DR.. Ritchey,
and took the poison in broken doses during
Saturday night and Sunday. Explaining
to Purdom that lie was taking quinine,
Purdom at once proposed sending for a
doctor, but Bush objected, saying lie would
blow the doctors brains out, if he came.
Sunday night Bush became unconciOus,
whareupOn his friend, seriously alarmed,
had DIR. John r. Paine, Of McMinn-
Vile. and DR.. Black, of Nashville, called
in, both Of whom did all in their power to
save the life Of Bush, but in vain, as he died
about midnight. During a spell of con-
c.ousness. Bush endeavOred TO recover pos
session of the following letter, which had
been found hidden under his pillow.

v1RTUE TAKES BACR SEAT.

Washington Special to the Chicago Times.
The defeat for denomination of Con-
FRESHMAN Willard, of Vermont, and
the nomination of Poland. of press gag
law fame. creates considerable surprise
here. Willard was one of the hard It
workers in Congress. Honest and
faithful to the interests Of his district,
no faint of dishonesty, even in a re-
mote manner, was ever attributed to
him. On the other hand, Poland was
well known t. be a super" of the dis
trict ring. and, it Is alleged, was chaek
by jowl with the deposed ex-bOss. His
voice was never raised IN the exposure
of any of the frauds and swindles at
tempted to be rushed through Con-
gress, while Willard, always on the
alert, faithfully, in more than one in
stance, denounced many Of the lobby
scheme.
