HIS LIFE IN AGYPr,

Gen eral Loving said that DR.. Lansing and
the other American missionaries there were
doing an immense amount OF good, not so
much by converting as by educating the
people. Their converts were not very nu-
nerous. but their twenty schools were hay-
ing a marked effect on the people, their
labors i'm behalf OF the education Of women
being especially useful. The late Khedive's
anxiety TO have his people educated was a
strong point in hls favor, and his ehorls 10
improve the people generally by educating
the women proved him to be man OF re-
markable foresight, considering the ORR
entail ideas OF women.

FeatherIlcads.

An observant man may notice
during an election canvass few
featherheadcd men, who are first
on one side and then on the other,
who paddle between the two oppo-
site sides, like a ferry boat, and
carry such commodities in the way
of secrets, as they can pick up. II
they are on your side to day, along
about night they have dreadful
misglving and fears that after all.
they are on the weaker side, and
the next morning the featherhcad
ferry boat is tied up on the other
side, engaged in unloading. They
are not here but a little while un.
til they are haunted with the idea
that after all, they have made o
mistake, then steam up and put
back and so they 90 on, until at
last, finding both sides shut against
them, they quit the trade, retire
from politics, and turn up as the
boss of Sunday-school procession,
or an admired hero of q mite so.
ciety.
The Osceola times., 1880-07-24

WHEN a man deserts his political
friends, and goes back upon bis
pledges, he Is never admitted into
the confidence Of his new associ-
ates. They feed him on husks, not
on solid corn. They know his
bascness, detest him, and keep him
at u wary distance. Such q man
finds out at last, that instead of
selling out candidate, he has too
LITERAL y been sold out himself. As
10 that kind of nonenity who is
everything by turns, and nothing
long; who is whirled about like o
feather, by every breeze, who slob-
bers his gushing confidence on him
to-day, and curses him tomorrow,
and assigns party lying excuses for
his changing conduct, he is more an
object of pity than of anger.

Symptoms Of q Diseased Liver.

DAM in the right side, under the
/ edge Of the ribs. increases on pres.
sure; sometimes the pain is in the lcft
side; the patient is rarely able to lie
on the left side; sometimes the pain
is felt under the shoulder blade, and
it frequently extends to the top Of the
shoulder. and is sometimes mistaken
for rheumatism in the arm. The stom-
ach is affected with loss Of appetite
and sickness; the bowels in general
are costive. sometimes alternative with
lax; tho head is troubled with pain,
accompanied with a dull, heavy sem
sa:ion in the back part. There is gen.
orally a considerable loss of memory,
accompanied with painful sensation
Of having left undone something which
ought to have been done. A slight
dry cough is sometimes an attendant.
The patient complains of WEAKNESS
and debility, he is easily startled. his
feet are cold or burning. and he COM
plains Of prickly sensation Of the
skin: his spirits are low; and although
he is satisfied that exercise would be
.bepc6cia! to him. yet he can scarcely
summon up fortitudc enough to try it.
In fact. he distrusts every remedy.
Several of The above symptoms attend
the disease. but cases have occurred
where few Of them existed. yet exam

shown the LIVER to have been cxtcn-
sivcly dcrangcd.

! hope the people will in charity
kindly place over his shoulders the
mantle of oblivion, and forget him
and his political rawlings, but if q
few ,ciR place their trust and conf
dcnce in him, I am satisfied that
they will find, when it is too late,
that they have been the victims of
misplaced confidence.
And now, Mr.. Editor, l will ask
you to give place to thus, my last
letter on this subject, as | do not

been ready, as true friends, TO bear

from actual experience that the
most beautiful face, and the sweet

a true friend in the dark and
stormy hours Of adversely.
What amount of practical assist
ancc the TINES has been IN the
work OF developing the material,
mental and moral condition of our
people at the present time, we will
leave to the impartial judgment
thinking men. When we began,
Osceola had not population Of
fifty, now we have four hundred /;
tho county had a population of
about three thousand; now We have
nearly eight thousand and church
es, school-houses, literary and TEN.
perance societies are found all over
the county. Taking counsel from
experience, we enter upon the
present year with high aims for
the future, and do not intend to be
rooted, fixed and tied TO the past,
but will endeavor to keep abreast
Of the times, to read the signs OF
the times and to correctly inter.
pret them ; TO seek always the true
good of the people among whom
We live, and according to our abili-
ty, to be unto them o veritable
guide, philosopher and friond +; TO
,cork and despair not." Yes, tho
swamp deadenlng has at last been
cleared its bitter, stagnant waters
drained, and the desert waste
turned into a fruitful, cultivated
field, full of hope and promise. In
other words, at its beginning, the
TINES was in its chrysalis state, and
is now u winged Psyche; and
hencciorth its flight will ever be
onward and upward.

IT is small business, q COT

IT is small business, a con.
temptible business for a candidate,
or partisan to be standing around
on the streets trying to make eapi-
tai for himself out of the misdo-
ings of another. The fool who cx-

nounce wrong in the conduct of

be no greater wrong than the hypo-
critical cant of dishonest, corrupt,
crafty, office seeking demagogue,

bowling incessantly against mat

OsCEoLA, ARK, July ~, 1881.
EDITOR TINES That letter in
your last issue from Pecan Point,
is OF 80 flimsy texture that but
few of your readers will fail to see
the real author (Dr. Jones). Now
why has the Doctor not the manli.
ness to come out like gentleman
and write over his own signature,
instead of endcavoring to make a
target OF Deacon Payne and 9TH
ers, u part of whom have already
acknowledged that they cannot
write even their own name.
The letter begins: We, the un-
iersigned, deny that we ever au-
thorized Dean, Tucker or anyone
else TO deny truths for u.s. That,
| grant, is so, but why did Deacon
Payne, Jake Woods, or some Of
the signers of the letter SIT still
and hear DR.. Jones and his first
letter denounced as a fraud and =
lie and never raise voice in de-
fense of either, all this having been
done by the colored men who were
present at the first meeting.
The bull-doz'ng speech alluded
TO, was simply Il plain statement Of
facts, with part of Jones' per-
sona history, but took no unfair
advantage Of the Doctor, but in
formed him beforehand Of my IN
tention, and he (tbe Docto0 beat
hasty retreat from the room as
soon as | was called upon to take
the stand. and as to the speech hav-
lug been picked to pieces by Mr..
Woods, have this 10 say, that If
an answer to what said was at.
tempted by Mr.. Woods or anyone
else j was not awsEe of the fact.
Mr.. Woods did make the assertion
that We were all working for
money, myself as well as DR..
Jones. This j did not .cheese TO
contradict, as i am legitimately
employed as Deputy Sheriff OF this
county, and certainly do not work
altogether for glory. That DIR.
Jones is also employed | am equal

informed that be wSs hese On the

doing speech ut the point, and
was heard to make the threat that
if his employer did not come down
with the cash that he (Joncs) would
cease to work Tor the party.
As to the bull dozing efforts Of
Mr.. Price and myself, l leave that
for the people who were present
at the meeting 10 decide, and am
certain that Thos. Kicks is too
much of Il christian to take any no.
tice of the slander flung at him,
coming us it does from such
source.
Aud | will say this in conclu.
sion: II DR.. Jones, who Is not here
more than long enough to be u
voter. thinks that he can boos: any
candidate into Office by toeting his
ouh horn and endeavoring to de-
lude the colored people by partisan
appeals or sectional animOsities,
he will find, (on the 9th day Of
SepteMber), that he has overratrd
his own powers AS a politician,
and been " ost wociulIy mistaken
in the people with whom he is
dealing. The Doctor, think, will
then retire into obscurity, where

Il AN a temperance man, not .

81 AM a temperance man, not q
PrOhIJifionist," said Capt. McVeigh,
when told that it was reported that
he favored Prohibition. A world
of argument could not have made
his position palmer, and even a
child can understand the difference,
when it reflects, between Temper
ance and Prohibition. A man is
not temperate simply because he is
locked up in Jail and can't get
liquor to drink. The free moral
agent only can be temperate, the
man who has his option to do or
not to do, particular thing.
