pogder making at Selma Ala. and sub
sequently in the iron furnaces al Talla-
dega Ala. At the close of the war he
returned to Hand & Bro, and soon af-
forwards. entered into partnership with
the extensive lumber manufacturers of
w. Denny & Co. at Moss Point. with
whom he was connec'ed at the time of
his death. In Sep. 1868 he married Mi IS
Mollie B., daughter of the late Berry

stances, the result Of industry and en-
ergy.
His family are at present with

YELLOW FEvER AT BA1RD's
ulLL,-We understand that there
are now three case ofyellow fever at
Baird's Million Fowl River, is
miles Ibis side Of Mobile and 7
miles from railroad station.
The origin Of the di,ea5e there is
some what singular, and we give the
particulars, as we learn them from
Mr.. Cause who mas business rela>
tions with Ne Baird.
The first case was that of a young
man employed by Mr.. Baird, who
acted as a lighter Capt.--Mr. G..
C. Zilisch, who had been nowhere
from the mill, excepting to Mobile,
and to lighter lumber from the mill
aboard the Brig L. F. Munson,
then lying in the bay at the mouth
of Fowl Riyer, from Which it was
reported he contracted the disease.
This vessel laid in New York 6
or s months previous TO sailing di"
rect for Mobile with cargo une 2nd,
being under charter by Messrs.
.Mosclev, Wheelwright & Co. Of
Boston under date, May 215t, with
back cargo Of lumber. she report
ed at Mobile July 7th, "ready for
cargo on her return, and remained
there about ten days taking in lum-
b. from tae city. after which, she
proceeded down the bay and COM
pleted loading direct from the Mill
July 3lst, Mr.. Zilisch delivering
two lighter loads.
A few few days thereafter Mr.. q.
was taken sick and died with black
vomit bout August Sth.
There had been, up TO that time.
no communication with this place,
excepting Mr.. Hendrickson who as
inspector of lumber, was aboard
the vessel from July 7th unlil the
31st, when he came here, took sick
Aug. Goth and died Sept. End.
Messrs Cause and Herrih visited
the mill August 18th, the former re-
turning Immediately, the latter res
naming four days. There was no
sickness there then, nor has been
since until within the last few days.
Mr.. Herrin is now sick here, Mr..
Cause not having been sick at ali.
This shows that il was impossible
that the fever could have been car
ried from this place, and the ques-
tion arises how could the vessel
have contracted it.
But where did the Schr. Bloom
stop at. boarded here by our quar>
Intine physician on 1st Sept. on
her way from New Orleans to Mo-
bile, who put in here in distress,
having two cases OF yellow lever on
BOARD, ordered to proceed on her
Toyage or go into quarantine. She
lid the Iormer. Where did she go
o, stop at Baird's mill or 60 on to
iobile !? !

mol sooner, and assume command o!

of them have been found in the fle,h

the appropriation of sixty thousand
dollars for militia purposes is not
available, unless the militia are call

the field oil carnage this money can
be used for equipment, clothing

Interesting to Borrowers.

Housekeepers will be sur
prised that their custom Of SEN
ding to a neighbor to borrow a
little butter Or sugar, or other
article Of diet. is quite common
with the sayagcs Of FIJI. -
When lady has a friend to
dinner unexpectedly, she goes
to the woman across the way
and says: "Yakvak and his
family have just dropped in to
dine, and | haven't anything in
the house. How do you think
your hired girl would work up
into a stew? Can | borrow
her for few days?' Then she
seizes that domestic by the
hair, and drags her over and
chops her mp with parsley, and
carrots, and celery tops and
cloves, and lets her. swim over
the fire. Or may be the other
woman sends over and says;
I'm entirely out Of meat; can't
you lend me your little William
Henry for hash, or your Mary
Jane for a pie?" and over goes
William Henry and Mary Jane,
and they are stuck with fork,
and basted, and put on to cook
gently; and the debt is paid off
the next week by the borrower
sending back her aunt, already
boiled and suitable for cutting
down cold for tea, or one Of her
twins cOrnered so as to make Il
nice lunch. Sometimes a wO-
man in this manner will work
off d couple Of her mothers-in-
law, OF a rich uncle or a plump
second cousin; and then sits
at her window and sniff them
as they are cooking in the kitch-
en next door, or watch one of
the company in the dining room,
milling at the elbow Of her late
hired girl. The custom seems
to us an excellent one, particu-
larly when it is applied to hired
girls. We have had girls we
would have loaned to neigh
Dor at any time, under a solemn
promise that they shonld be
butchered and boiled as quickly
as possible.

A Fiery Ball From the

Between ten and eleven o'clock

about thee miles west of West

grandeur of the scene and the ex-
citement it caused. For fully a
minute the heavens We're lighted
by the fierce glare of
the notwithstanding fire ball;
and when it struck, the earth
shook as from an earthquake for
miles around, and the noise of the
conclusion was heard by the peo-
pie Of GrlnneI, ninety.fve miles
away.
The fiery ball struck terra firma

residents in the vicinity half out
Of their wits. 1t sank fifteen feet
into the ground, and left hole
Of the depth of ten feet in dame

as you visit him, take with you
some little present-nO matter
for its value-this is of little
consequence; but take it as a
token Of your kind remem-

tesies will bind him to you with
strong affection, and lis affec-
ton is all important for you to
possess.

it is yours to hear. Be then in

you appreciate his many labors,
And not only hear, but what

er JOY than to see you walking

s. Remember these rules
Keep a copy of them. Place
it where you can refer to it dali
ly. Read them at least every
week, and often ask whether
you have sinned against them.
If you are prone to break them,
then read them every day, as
you go to your closet, and pray
God by His spirit to enable you
to keep them.
DO all this-even attempt to
do it-and in ninety-nine cases
out OF a hundred You will have
a good minister. Observe these
rules, and though by nature
your minister may be far from
what you would have him, still
grace and kindness will make
him a good one. Violate them
= degrade them-and in ninety
nine cases ont of Il hundred you
will have a peer minister in
deed. Disregard them, and
though in fact you have a most
excellent minister it will, to an
absolute certainty, make him Il
poor one to you!

Be Careful what You Say.

In speaking of persons faults,
Pray don't forget your own;
Remember, those with homes of glass
Should seldom throw stone.
If we have nothing else TO do
But talk of those who sin,
'Tis better we commence at home,
And from that point begin.
We have no right to judge a man
Until he's fairly tried;
Should we not like his company,
We know the world is wide
Some may have faults-and who have not
The old as well as young;
Perhaps we may, for aught we know,
Have fifty TO their one.
I'll tell you of better plan,
And one that works full well;
| try my own defects to cure,
Before Of others tell;
And though | sometimes hope to be
No worse than some | know,
My own shortcomings bid me let
The faults of others go.
Then let rs all when we commence
To SANDER friend or foe,
7 hink Of the harm one word may do
TO those we little know.
Remember curses, sometimes, like
Our chickens, ''rOOst at hOme;''
Don't speak of others faults until
We have none of our own.
