NUMBER 32.


An exchange, suggesting a plan
for the benefit OF lady subscribers,
who complain OF the newspaper
borrowers, thinks he has hit upon
an etlectual method by which they
can be killed off and puts it thusly:
Let the lady Immediately upon
receiving the paper carefully cut
from it some items--it makes no
particular difference what it is
most any item will do, only let it
be neatly and carefully removed
from the paper. Tllen the following
proceedings will be sure to ensue:
In few moments the r1cighbor's
boy will come after the paper-he
will take 1t home--within three
minutes he will emerge from the
honSc-he will scoot down the
street, and very shortly return
with ii folded newspaper oF the
same date us the one borrowed. BY
the time the clipped paper has cir
cled round among all the female
borrowers, the streets will be live
ly with hurrying boys, and the rev
enue OF the newspaper will be ma
terially increased. Not one woman
among them all would be able to
sleep II wink without knowing Just
exactly what the cut out item was.
The next day the lady will pursue
the same course, and similar re-
suits will surely follow. In an ex-
tremely obstinate ncighborhood
these proceedings have to be re-
peated three or four days, but not
longer. BY that time the lady will
be able to reid her paper in peace,
and the newspaper finances will be
the gamer through several new sub
scribers. This rule is infallible
where borrowers are females, but it
can't be vouchcd for in the case of
men. There is't that inherent Gu
ri6Slty 10 work upon, You know,
and--and-but perhaps we are get
ting Il little too deep.

Editor Democrat Star:
Somebody who denominates him

paragraph vas " very short
simple one, and in itself inoffen-
sive, but the bay" is wonderfully
hurt about it. The said short, sim

an expression Of opinion by ssome-
body supposed to live at Gaines

But the - Bay" some how or other
thinks he did and comes out in an
article of some length, in which he
shows up "Gainesville's" fayorite

MIR. Leslie is a very unpopularman,
especially with his kindred and
ncighbors; and, that he will not
carry, in the coming election, his
own precinct tYamacraw). That
statement is well made. 1t is as
well made as language can make it..
1t may have its effect over in Jack
son county; and elsewhere III the
range OF the DEMOCRAT STAR, but
it will have very little impression
among the people that know better
The returns of the forthcoming
election will set that matter all
right. The subscriber Of this
article knows personally that the
said Mr.. Leslie is Il tirst-claSs man
in every respect, and believes he
will roll up Il very handsome ma
iority in November, not only from
Yamacraw, but from every part Of
the county.
As for Mr.. p6Scy we know him
not. He seems to be tirSt.claSS
gentleman with sufficient mental
capacity and culture to represent
any people anywhere. But we are

if such thing existed he would
know it. He seems to know who

likely. Possibly he is an intimate

talks in knowing way of the fl

GEORGIA CANDY PULLING,
AND HOW IT WAS SUDDENLY BROK-
EN- Up.
Chicago Lodgcr.

Chicago Lodgcr.
A party of Georgia girls had ar
ranged to lave Il candY-pullimg at
the residence Of Mr.. Jones, The
father of one of the girls. Now, it
happened that Mr.. Jones had a
bachelor brother living with him, a
good-naturcd, kindly sort of man,
but awfully bashtul in the presence
of wOmen-particularly young wo-
men. Uncle Dick, as our bachelor
friend was called, had not been no.
titled Of the candy-pnlling arrange
ments, the intention of the girls
being to monopolize all the sweet
ness to themselves. On the evening
in question Uncle Dick was buSily
engaged, in the best room of the
house, changing his linen, prepaga-
tory to business visit to the vii
Iage, little dreaming of the caIami-
ty that awaited him i'll the near
future. He had already dotted his
clothes, and was in the act OF
crawling into a clean shirt, when a
sound smote on his ears that caused
him to start and shudder like an
aspen. 1t was the sound of the
merry voices of a bevy of young
girls approaching the house with a
steady tramp. Nearer, nearer they
came, this invading host, more ter
rible to Bachelor Dick than an
army with banners. InanOther, ,mo'
ment the rustic OF their dresses fell
upon his ears like a death knell.
They were at the very threshold of
the room, and the door was un-
locked. Oh, horror of horrors
What was this bachelor forlorD to
do to be saved from the fate that
seemed awaiting him. He who
hesitates is lost" thought Uncle
Dick. There was but one way out
of the awful dilemma i'll which he
found himself placed. QniCk as
thought the unclad man wildly
seized his clothes in his arms and
iumled behind the wardrobe. Here
he pcrched himself on top OF very
high clothes basket, thinking the
unweIcome visitors would be gone
IN a few minutes. When the girls
made their entrance and com
mencM making preparations for
the ,andy-pniling, Uncle Dick
groand in despair. 1t took his
best balancing to keep from being
tumblel off IN the very midst of
the girs, and the thought that he
would lie kept a prisoner in this
uncomfortable position for two or
three hoirs was anything but pleas
ant to his feelings.
"Oh, Won't we have jolly time
of it," exclaimed one of the girls.
3" With no men to bother us, we
can pull candy any way we want it.
Why, these awful nen would want
you to maze the candy and pull it
for them toeat, aud then they would
criticise your conduct and actions
as soon as tleir backs were turned"
You're tight, Jenny. True,

great principles of morality, on the

Judge who fills two hours with his

his minister because he has pro-
longed the discussion of the great

New Variety OF Sheep.

Mr.. Darwin furnishes the Agri-
cultural Gdzette (Londoma an account
of Il "spo1t," or accidental new var
iety, shadentFy occurring in flock
Of Merino sheep belonging to Mr..
Currie, of LARA, Victoria. 1t APP
pears that Mr.. Currie, purchased
some Merino rams from Mr.. Near
thurs Camden flock, in New South
Wales, the origin of which was "a
few Spanish sheep from the private
flock of King George Ill. After
the Camden rams were taken to
Victorfa5 lambs appeared. at inter
walls having heeces of a peculiar
character. And in other focks
the use of Canned rams caused the
occasionalappearance oflambS with
heeceS of peculiarly fine, long,
straight and luStrous fibre; but
this silky character of the wool
gave the owners the impression
that it indicated weakness of con
Stitution, and the animals were
discarded: However, about ten
years ago Mr.. Currie saved ram
lamb showing these characteristics
in a marked degree, and selected u
few ewes also having similar flee
ces in less marked degree; the
result after much care ana atten-
ton, being the new variety called
LARA Merino." This is said to
be the third instance on record of
a distinct, variety of sheep making
a sudden appearance.

LIFE and DEATH.
BY l.. X. HAMBERLIN.

A tiny flower, its life an hour;
And then its petals fade;
A blushing rose, its perfume flows;
o that it could have stayed
4 summers ray, an autumn day,
Then winters chilling blast;
A sunny noon, a cloud so soon
Our joys are quickly past
A cleaning star that beams afar,
An orb that God hath made;
A glorious light, but sits at night
The brightest hopes will fade,
A doves low "coo," a loves sweet"woo,"
Two hearts that now are glad;
A grating word, so low, but heard
Detected soul how sad.
A laughing maid, now calm ami staid,
And what is youth when past
A first gay drink, then EIell's dark brink,
A drunkard's grave at last.
A marriage bell, then tolled to tell,
"Departed is the soul )"
A severed tie, for all things die
The grave is but mans goal.
A gentle clasp, a lngrng grasp,
And loved ones part for aye;
A sigh moan, Il grasp, a groan-
The death-shade fills the eye.
A stihcd soul, then meath the sod
We lay friend away;
A bit of Grape our door to drape--
All life, thou transient stay!
A tender life, now freed from strife,
A spirit gone to heav'n;
A stream of love, that Hows above,
A balm for sore hearts giv'n.
A castle fair, but now it's air,
A dream that passed away;
A vision bright becomes as night,
When darkness hides the day.
A toilsome way, bod Of clay,
A weary, ileeting breath
We come to thee, eternity,
For all things end in death.
Clinton, october, 1879.
