Habits of a Man of Business.

He is strict in keeping his engage
ments.
Does nothing carelessly or in a
hurry.
Employs nobody to do what he
can easily do himself.
Keeps everything in its proper
place.
Keeps his designs and business
from the view of others.
Is prompt and decisive in his deal
ings, and does not overtrade his cap
tai.
Prefers short credittO long ones and
cash to credit at all times, either in
buying or selling; and small profits
in cases with little risk, to the chance
of better gains with more hazard.
He is clear and explicit in all his
bargains.
Leaves nothing of consequence to
memory which he can and ought to
commit to writing.
Is always at the head of his bust
ness, well knowing that if he leaves
it, it will leave him.
Holds as a maxim that he whose
credit is suspected is not one to be
trusted.
Is constantly examining his books
and sees through all his affairs as far
as care and attention will enable
him.
Balances regularly at stated times
and then makes out and transmits
all his accounts-current to his custo-
mers, both at home and abroad.
Avoids as much as possible all
sorts of accommodation in money
matters, and lawsuits where there is
the least hazard.
He is economical in his expendi-
ture, always living within his in
come.
Is cautious how he becomes secu-
rity for any person, and is generous
when urged by motives of human
ity.
Let a man act strictly to these
habits; when once begun, they will
be easy to continue in, and success
will attend his efforts.
Take pleasure in your business,
and it will become your recreation.
Hope for the best, think for the
worst and manfully bear whatever
happens.

The Truth in A Nutshell.

The decline and fall of the Re
publican party in the South is briefly
and forcibly portrayed in the fol-
lowing, which, by the way, is not
from a Democratic journal, but from
the Cincinnati Commercial itself:
Under the administration of Gen.
Grant the Republican party in the
South had passed away, with the
exception of few fragments tossing
about to tell of shipwreck. The
right thing for Grant to do, when the
troops had done their duty in preserv-
ing the peace and showing fair play
through the Presidential election,
was to remove them from the State
Houses. He left the task to Hayes,
who was menaced on one side by
the Democratic House past and to
come, and on the other by desper-
ately dissatisfied population. Hayes
saw what must come to pass. He
saw that the two State Houses Occu-
pied by United State troops must be
evacuated. He thOughtto let down
his friends in the Republican State
Governments as easily as possible.
Hence the so-called negotiations "
which the ungrateful persons most
Commemorative refer to Chamberlain
and Packard-have attempted to
make odious. 1T did not suit the
Gubernatorial gentlemen to retire
gracefully. They assumed an affec-
tation of martydrom. 1t would
have pleased them to have the
world gazing upon them a while
longer. They desired American
politics to revolve through the adj
ministration of Hayes around two
State Houses held against the tax
payers by United States troops, to
whom Congress, through the action
of the House, had refused supplies
because they were engaged in this
business.

A FELLOWS FUNERAL.
Extraordinary Antics by the COlOred
People Of Jackson.
Jackson Tribune and Sun, July 20.

jackson Tribune and Sun, July 20.
After the execution of Min Will
son, his body was conveyed to the
room of Mary Irwin, a cOlored wo-
man who resides in the frame block
southeast of the public square, on
Baltimore street. There it was laid
out by large number of colOred
people assembled to receive it. On
removing the body from the plain
wooden coffin furnished by the State,
it was discovered to be still quite
warm and the flesh prOfusely moist.
This, together with the fact that the
felon's neck was not broken by the
fall on the gallows, led the colored
people present to hope that resusci-
tation was possible. Thus encour-
aged, they stripped the body and
rubbed it violently for an hour; but
their efforts were fruitless, and the
murderer's soul could not be called
back to the scene of its crime and
suffering. The body was then re-
dressed and laid out amid a wealth
of rare and variegated flowers. 1t
lay in state until Sunday afternoon,
and was visited by hundreds of his
race. On Saturday night large
crowd Of negroes, men and women,
sat up with the body-sang, prayed
and shouted, and indulged i'm exOr-
tations and eulogies until Sunday
morning. All the forenoon of Sun
day, crowds of colored people con-
tinued to hang around, or pass in
review the body of the criminal. In
the afternoon of Sunday, about of 3
o'clock, the felon's body was laid in |
a costly casket, placed in a fine
hearse, and preceded by the colored |
brass band discoursing dirges, and |
followed by a large procession of
cOlOred men and women, was borne |
to the cOlored Baptist church in |
South Jackson, where prolonged |
and elaborate funeral service was
held. The interment was signalized
by additional religious services, fu-
neral orations, song, eXortations and
shouting. Thus we have plainly re-
counted the facts of the most extra
and disgraceful demOnstra-
ton which, under the circumstan-
ces, ever shocked an enlightened
and Christian community.

Who was CasahIanna1

Owen Casabianca was native Of
Corsica, on which Island he was
born in the year 1873. His father
was Louis Casabianca, a distin-
guished French politician and naval
commander and the friend Of Napo-
leon. He was captain at this time Of
the orient, one OF the largest vessels
of the French navy, a magnificent
ship-of-war, carrying 100 guns and
500 seamen. OF Casabianca's mOth-
or we know but little, save that she
was a young and beautiful Corsican
lady, and devotedly attached to her
son. Owen was her only child, a
handsome, manly little fellow, with
her beauty i'm his flashing eyes and
dusky hair. She died while he was
yet quite young, and when the green
sod was placed over her grave, the
boy left the pleasant valley under
the smiling hills OF Corsica to 60 with
his father and tread the hard deck Of
a war vessel. Mere child as he was,
Casabianca soon grew TO love his fa-
TIERS dangerous calling, and became
tavorite with all ON board. He
was made midshipman, and at the
early age OF ten years participated
with his father i'm the battle OF the
Nile. The ship caught fire during
the action. Soon after, Captain Cas-
abianca, the father, was wounded by
a musket ball. Not yet disabled, ne
was struck in the head some min
utes later by a splinter which laid
him upon the deck insensible. His
gallant son, unconscious OF the chief
tain's doom, still held his post at the
battery, while he worked like the he
ro he was. He saw the flames raging
around him he saw the ships crew
deserting him one by one, and the
boy was urged to flee. With eour-
age and cOolness beyond his years,
he refused to desert his post. Wor-
thy son of Louis Casabianca, he
fought on and never abandoned the
Orient till the whole of the immense
vessel was in flames. Then seeking
refuge on floating mast, he left the
burning ship behind him. But he
was too late. The final catastrophe
came like thejudgment doom! With
an explosion so tremendous that ey-
cry ship felt ii to the bottom, the
Orient blew up, and from among the
wreck the next morning was picked
up the dead, mangled body of the
young hero, whose story, romance
and poetry cannot make more hero
Ic than it was.- Youths Companion.

How the Israelites Passed Over the
Red Sea.

An amusing instance was told a
Hampton, Va, correspondent Of the
Springfield Republican, Of thequiclS-
wittedness of anegro preacher who
had elaborated a new theory of the
Exodus, to-wit, that the Red Sea
got frozen over and so afforded the
Israelites safe passage; but, when
Pharaoh with his heavy iron chari-
OTIS attempted it they broke through
and were drowned. A brother rose
and asked for an explanation of that
point. "I'se been studyin' gogra-
ply, and de geography say dat be
very warm cOuntry-whered dey have
de tropics. And de tropics too hot
for freezin'. De pint TO be 'splained
is, bout breaking through de ice"
The preacher Strengthened and said:
"Brudder, glad you axed dat quest
ion. 1t gives me 'casion tosplain Il.
You see dat was great while 'go-in
de ole times, 'fo' dere was any gogra-
phy-'fo' dere was any tropics"

Building Character.

There is a structure which every
body is building, young and old,
each one for himself. IL is called
character, and every act Of life II a
stone. If day by day we be careful
to build our lives with pure, noble,
upright deeds, at the end will stand
a fair temple, honored by God and
man. But as one leak will sink n
ship, and one flaw break n chain, so
one mean, dishonOrable, untFuthful
act or word will forever leave It's
impress and several good deeds unite
to form day, and one by one the
days grow into years, and the years
as they slowly pass will raise nc last
n beautiful ediflce, enduring forever
to our praise. ... .r-.

Lemons a Cure for Consumption.

A correspondent of an English
medical journal furnishes the fol-
lowing recipe as a new cure for con-
sumption! Put a dozen whole lem
onS in cold water and boil until soft
(not too soft, roll and squeeze until
the Juice is all extracted, sweeten
the Juice enough to be palatable,
then drink. Use as many as a dozen
a day. Should they cause pain or
loOseness of the bowels, lessen the
quantity and five or six day until
better, then begin and use a dozen
again. BY the time you have used
five or six dozen you will begin to
gain strength and have an appetite.
OF course as you get better you need
not use so many. Follow these direc-
tions and we know that you will
never regret it if there is any help
for you. Only keep it up faithfully.
We know of two cases where both
of the patients were given up by the
physicians, and were in the last
stages of consumption, yet both
were cured by using lemons accord
ing to the directions we have stated.
One lady in particular was bedrid-
den and very low; had tried every
thing that money could procure, but
all in vain, when to please a friend,
she was finally persuaded to try the
lemons. She begun to use them in
February, and in April she weighed
140 pounds. She is a we'll woman
to-day, and likely to live as long as
any of us.

MAN may be compared to a book;
his birth Is the title-page, his bap-
tisin the epistle dedicatory, his child
hood tile argument or contents, his
life and pursuits the subject matter,
and his fOilies or crimes the errata.
AS for the size and appearance Of
the work, some volumes are I'M folio,
some i'm quarto and some In duOdec-
imo; and while some are plainly
bound, Others are done elegantly
with embellishments, and, as In the
last page there usually appears tho
word filis, so Is IL with man, his life
also has terminating point. After
frettlng his little span, he drops into
the grave, which Is the earthly flnis
of his course.
