True GentleneSs.

True gentleness is founded on a
sense of what we owe to Him who
made us, and to the common nature
in which we all share. It arises
from reflection on our own failings
and wants; and from just views OF
the condition and duty of man 1t
is a native feeling heightened and
improved by principle. 1t is the
heart which easily relents, which
feels for everything that is human,
and is backward and slow to infict
the least wound. 1t is afable in
its address and mild in its demeanor,
ever ready to oblige and willing to
be obliged by others, breathing
habitual kindness towards friends,
courtesy to strangers, long-sufering
to enemies. 1t exercises authority
with moderation, administers re-
proof with tenderness, confers ia
favors with ease and modesty. 1t
is unassuming in opinion, and tenn
perate in zeal. In contends not
eagerly about trifes, is slow to
contradict, and still slower
to blame; but prompt to
allay dissension and to restore
peace. 1t neither intermediates I'M
necessarily with the affairs, ner
prizes inquisitively into the secrets of
others. 1t delights, above all
things, to alleviate distress, and if
it can not dry up the falling tear, to
sOOthe a. least the grieving heart.
Where it has not the power of be-
ing useful it is never burdensome
it seeks to please rather than to
shine and dazzle, and conceals with
care that superiority, either Of tai
ent or of rank, which is oppressive
to those who are beneath it. In
word, it is that spirit, and that
tenor of manners, which the Gospel
of Christ enjoins when it commands
US to "bear one another's burdens;"
''tO rejoice with those who rejoice,
and weep with those who weep;"
'to please every one his neighbor
Tor his good;' to be kind and tender
learted;" ''to be pitiful and court
eous;" "to support the weak, and to
be patient towards all men.''-Dr. |
Blair.

The higher Life.

That Christianity has its higher
life, is not denied. There have been
in its history many lives in which
faith and hope have been triumph>
ant. This, however, has not been
because of any assurance of sinless
perfection, or assumptions of special
possession of the spirit. They
have had the promises and privileges
common to all Christians ; but they
have more faithfully improved them,
and so have grown in grace and in
the knowledge of God their Saviour,
to degree that placed the reality
Of their Christian character beyond
all doubt, that assured them of ac-
ceptance in Christ, and of their en-
jOyment through Him of the
blessings Of salvation. All who
have this assurance can rejoice in
the hope of the glory of God.

The Atlanta Constitution of recent
date has the following in reference 10
Rev. Nathan Bachman, Of our city:
This eminent evangelist, assisted by
his brother, Rev. JoAn w Bachman,
of Chattanooga, is conducting a series
of religious services at the First Pres
byterian church. Those who have
been attending these services continue
to GO again and again, attracted by the
thrilling earnestness of the preacher.
Mr.. Bachman Is by far the best evan
gelist We have ever heard. He unites
in a wonderful degree zeal with
knowledge. His experience, first as
pastor, and then as an evangelist, SUI
peradded TO his peculiar natural gifts,
eminently fit him to preach The gospel
with power, and TO counsel the in
quiring pepitent or the doubling
Christian.
Rev. john ~ BschmaD, the sweet
singer, is we'll known to many of our
readers for his self sacrificing labors
during the yellow fever scOurge in
Chattanooga.

Circular letter TO cOunsy Trustees.


The Comptroller has sent the follow
ing circular letter to County Trustees /:
CoMPTRoLLER's OFFICE, NASH
VILE, Tenn, Jan. 81, 1879 The at
tentiOn of the Trustees of the several
counties is called to The following act
OF the General Assembly, which has
just become a law, extending the
period for which the Trustee Is TO re-
tain the tax book, and making it his
duty to deliver TO the COnstables and
Sheriff, CD the first Monday OF the
tenth month next following the receipt
of said tax book, the certified state
menis of unpaid taxes now required
by law to be prepared.
Under provisions of sec. 2 of this act,
it will be seen that the Trustee is re-
CURED to renew bis present bonds or
10 file new ones on or before the first
Monday in March, 1919
1t Is true this law does not refer to
or repeal section l of the act Of 1874,
chapter Oh nor does it provide when
the Sheriff aud Constable shall pay
over the taxes or make settlement
with the Trustee. These omissions
will, perhaps, be remedied before final
adjournment Of the Legislature, as
we'll as the omissions relative to date
of advertisements and sale, of County
Court releases, fiual settlement, etc.
Respectfully, JAS. l.. GAINES.
Comptroller.
The act referred TO was published in
our columns last week.

The reputation ii has attained, in consequence Of
the marvellous cures it has produced during the
last half century, is sufficient assurance to the
public that it will continue to realize the happiest
results that can be desired. In almost every
section of country there are persons, publicly
known, who have been restored from alarming and
even desperate diseases of the lungs, by its use.
All who have tried it, acknowledge its superiority;
and where its virtues are known, no one hesitates
as to what medicine to employ to relieve the dis
tress and suffering peculiar to pulmonary aTec.
tons. CHERRY PICTORIAL always affords in
slant relief and performs rapid cures of the
miller varieties ofbronchial disorder, as well as
the more formidable diseases of the lungs.
AS safeguard to children, amid the distress
ing diseases which beset the Throat and Chest of
Childhood it is invaluable; for by its timely use,
muIttudes are rescued and restored to health.
This medicine gains friends at every trial, as
the cures it is constantly producing are too re-
markable to be forgotten. No family should be
without it, and those who have once used it
never win.
Eminent Physicians throughout the country
prescribe it, and Clergymen often recommend it
from their knowledge of its effects.

MONROE, N. G. Sept. 25.-With all OF Its
other wonders North Carolina has now given
birth to one of the most remarkable mon
strosities ever known to the medical world In
this OF any other age. This phenomenon has
been discovered to exist few miles from this
place. 1t is stated by the father, negro
living some ten or twelve miles from this
place, that this prodigious llsus nature Is
almost an exact counterpart OF the frog, with
hands, feet and in form Of body very near sim
liar to that of this amphibiou5 animal, In
habits almost the same 1t exhibits a de-
cided preference for the watery element, and
atnight. when the croaking cultural notes
of the numberless Neptnnian choir5 are re-
echoed and revelberated through the wood
and marshes, this would-b be aquatic peals
forth it's strange, unnatural song, which the
father AYERS is almost the same in information
and sound az that produced by the pond frog,
only s coarser and louder scaIe, keeping 1t up
until about the hour of midnight, when he
she or it l,ills him, her or itself into quietness
and sleep. 1t has been on exhibition in this
place for the past two days. The creature
has attracted q great deal Of attention and q
number OF medical men from a distance have
come here In the past few days to examine 1t.
