Do not be above your business
lie who turns up his nose at work

Is a poor smith who is afraid of his
own sparks; there's some discom-
fort in all trades except chimney
sweeping. If sailors give up going
to sea because of the wet; il bakers
left off baking bread because 1t is
hard work; if ploughmen would not
plough because Of cold, and tailors
would not make our clothes for fear
of pricking their fingers, what pass
we would come 10. Nonsense, my
fine fellow, there's no shame about
any honest calling; don't be afraid
o soiling your hands, there's plenty
of soap 10 be had.
All trades are good to good trad
ers. Lucifer matches pay well If
you sell enough OF them. You can
not get honey if you are frightened
at bees. nor plant corn If you are
afraid of getting mud on your
boots. When bars of iron melt I'M
der the south wind; when you dig
the fields with toothpicks; blow
ships along with fans; manure the
crops with lavender water, and grow
plum cases in flower pots, there will
be fine time for dandies; but until
the millennium comes we shall all
have a deal TO put upwith.

rapidly down the decline, but yet
We can find no brakes to put on the

These are no idle words, but they

country and must be shaken off or
it will assume a chronic form, and
defy the pruning knife. The me

a higher station in life; he must be
made to believe by actual expert
ence that he with his horny hands
is far more respected than the ma

gloved hands in the public crib.

words, the desire to make a living
without labor. mast be frowned
down, while industry must be en-
couraged. The mechanics and la

vet be well.

st AM THE MAN"
Gen. Jno. B. Gordon Saves the
Life of Gen. F. c. Barlow
at Gettysburg.
A Thrilling Incident of the War

From the Boston Transcript
You may not be aware that it was
Gen. Gordon's command which
struck the flank of the Eleventh
Corps on the afternoon of the first
day at Gettysburg, and after a
short but desperate conflict broke
its line and swept 1t from the field
In that fight Gen. Barlow OF New
York, commander of the First Divi-
sion, fell dangerously, and it was
thought, mortally wounded He
was shot directly through the body
Two of his men attempted to bear
him through that shower of lead
from the field, bat~one was instant
ly killed, and Gen. Barlow magnan-
imOusly said to the other: "You
can do me no coed; save yourself if
you can" Gordon's brigade of
Georgians in its wild charge swept
over him, and he was found by Gen.
Gordon himself, lying with up
turned face in The hot July sun,
nearly paralyzed and apparently
dying. Gen. Gordon dismounted
from his horse, gave him drink Of
water from his canteen and inquired
of Gen. Barlow his name and wishes.
Gen. Barlow said: Il shall prob
ably live but u short time. Please
take fIom my breast pocket the
packet of my wife's letters and read
one of them TO me" which was
done. He then asked that the oth
ers be torn up as he did not wish
them to fall into other hands This
Gen Gordon did, and then asked:
Can do anything else for you,
GeneralY'' -"Yes," replied Gen
Barlow, earnestly. MY wife is be
hind our army. Can you send a
message through the linesY' Seer
tainly l WILL SAID Gordon, and he
did. Then directing Gen. Barlow
to be borne to the shade of a tree at
the rear, he rode on with his com
mand. The wife received the mes
sage and came harmlessly through
both lines of battle and fonnd her
husband who eventually recovered.
Since Gen. Gordon's election to
the United States Senate, both he
and Gen. Barlow were invited to a
dinner party in Washington, and
occupied opposite seats at the ia
BILE. After introductions, Gen.
Gordon said: ''Gen Barlow, are
you related to the officer of your
name who was killed at Gettys
burgY Il am the man." said Bar
low. "Are you related to the Cor
don who is supposed to have killed
me?' Il am the man." said Gen.
Gordon. The hearty greeting which
followed the touching story, as re
lated to the interested guests by
Gen. Barlow, and the thrilling effect
upon the company, can better be
imagined than described.

DEATHIN RAGS.
A Car Load Of Bags Brought Death
and Depopulation to Deca-
tur last Summer.
rAe Imporia.IOn oaEplaemie Dl.ea..e..


The New York Herald prints an
interesting statement showing the
somewhat remarkable fact that ten
million dollars worth of foreign
rags are brought into this couDtry
every year, The most startling
suggestion connected with this
statement, however, is that Russia
and Asia Minor send us the bulk Of
this enormous supply of wornout
undergarments. The fact is recalled
that rags once carried the plague
into Marseilles, and il thereupOn
becomes at once. evident that this
eOuntry is.in danger from Vae same
source of contamination. The Cos
sack who took the handsome shawl
from the dead Turk and presented
it to his lady love, killed her and
twenty five of her friends in two
hours. The shawl carried the
plague. 1t may be that the dilapi-
dated shirt of the Russian beggar,
when the beggar himself has died
of the plague, is packed in a bale,
sent down to Odessa, shipped
through the Black sea and The Med
iterranean to Smyrna or Trieste,
and thence out of the straits, and
so across the Atlantic, TO become an
article of commerce in this country.
This is subject worthy the atten
tiOn of the congressional commit

CURED last summer. 1t is well
known that Sellow-fever made its
appearance at Decatur, a town sit
uated on the Tennessee river. The
disease was traced directly to car
load of rags. This car was shipped
from Grand Junction to Mobile.
The authorities refused to receive
the car, and it was sent TO Decatur,
where it remained on a side track.
Four persons connected with the
depot, and who came in contact
with this car, were seized with the
yellow fever, and the disease soon
became epidemic. The people of
Decatur unite in attributipg the APP
pearance of yellow-fever to this car
load of rags, which, no doubt, be-
came lmpregnated with the poison,
and disseminated it's baleful breath
over the town. killing many people
and destroying whole families. De-

A Terrible Disease.

The desire for office among every
class is o bad omen for the prosper
ity of the country, and indicates
more clearly than anything else the
destitute condition that many are in.
One cause of this destitution no
doubt is the stringency in the mon
ey market, but another and greater
cause is that the present race are,
TO great extent, q worthless and
improvident set, who spurn to live
by the sweat of their brow, as ma
ture intended they should. Oi
course this evil is not local, but il
extends throughout the whole coun'
try, and for this reason is more &c
be regretted. Whoever hears of al
office seeking the man now, but on
the contrary the man seeks the of
fee with a will that is TO be ad
mired, though i: is to be regretted

In Advance.

No subscriber worth retaining
will object to the payment in ad
vance system. Those who wanted
to hear Jenny Lind sing had to pay
in advance; and what were her di
vinest strains compared with those
which flow from the editorial pensS ?
You cannot take your seat in a
rlckety mailcoach, or go to or from
on a railroad car without paying in
advance for the risk of being
killed.
If you ever went to hear con
cert or literary lecture, or to see
Tom Thumb or the Siamese Twins,
YOU planked down your twenty five
or one hundred cents before you
could pass the threshold. And yet
men hesitate and cavil about pay
ing in advance for a paper fur
nished at price on the very brink
and utmost verge of prime cost.
