JUST THINK OF 1T.

A great many of the murders that
are committed, out Of the towns and
villages in the rural districts are
perpetrated with the view OF obtain
ing money nothing else. II is ru-
mored, aud ottentimes widely known,
that a farmer keeps his money IN his
house. Ii matters not that he keeps
il an iron safe, iodecd, that very
fac. is rather an Invitation to murder,
because the thieves, being aware that
it will take timo to open the safe,
are driven TO murder every one 10
tho house 20 tha. their work can be
communicated without interruption
and then follows ayaon, to hide the
double crime of robbery aud murder.
No man, who has even hundred
dollars lying idle, should keep it in
his house. There are plenty of good
banks 10 the cities, aud safe and
honest business mon in the towns
and villages, with whom the farmer
can deposit his money and draw on
it at his convenience Let no man
rest his conscience in the belief that
no can keep money in his house, aud
lock the secret so securely in his own
hearG that it cannot bs known to any
othor being alive. There are many
ways by which shrewd men, white
and black will detect it; end just as
soon as they do, plans are laid for
getting at it, and the more barriers
the owner throws around it, the
worse it will DO for himself, wife and
childreo. Keep no money at your
ho ne my countrymen and you need
not 60 to the trouble Of telling your
about 1.-THE ynked eyed
people in the city, town, or neighbor
hood, will very soon learn it for them
selves. - MiledgcUHie Recorder.

We are constantly receiving let

only say Marietta is the best and
prettiest place in all Georgia. IL is
surrounded by the best and most
productive country that can DO pro.
duced. The soil is good for cotton,
corn, oats, wheat, potatoes, traits,
and, 10 fact, nearly everything that
grows. The climate is healthy, for
numerous people from the North
have come here suffering with al
mott iocursble lung diseases, end
after a soiouru here of two or thtee
years, have been completely cured.
We have good churches, and Just AS
good people as God in His mercy
ever put on earth. We have room
enough around us for many tn u.
sands of good men and women who
want to fod good place to live -
Everybody 10 the country is willing
that good, respectable people shall
come 10 and make theic home here.
There will be no ostraoism on nc
count of religion, politics or opinions;
our fields are ready for cultivation,
our streams are strong and ready to
run all the machinery you may place
on them, and our forests will yield
good lumber. We present as pretty
and we'll regulated town as any man
should wish to live in f; the people
are sociable, refined and of as good
blood ss any 10 the Union, and are
not prejudiced against northern,

That evening Rev, Sam Jones was

Jones by the coat tail and motioned
him to sit down. Rising up he said,

A Lizard UNDER A MANS SKIN

A LIZARD UNDER A MAN $ SKIN.
"A gentleman from Now London
Rails county, tells the following
story, which he vouches for: he
says that there is u colored man in
New London, who for years has
claimed that he had a scorpion under
his skin, aud that it cra~led from
place to place over his body. a few
days since Drs Sprague and Rails,
of London, a couple Of scientists,
coaxed the darby to submit to a sur
gical operation for the removal of
the varmint. They distinctly traced
the animal und.r the darkcy's skin
from bis waist over his left shoulder,
and thence back again 10 a position
between the thigh and knee of the
right leg Clsspiog Ibe limb above
and below where the animal seemed
to be, they administered chloroform
to the man, and making an incision
in tho leg, took therefrom living
,eptiIe-not scorpion, but some-
thing resembling a lizard. 1t was
placed 10 a vial of alcohol, and the
doctors have had several offers for
it's purchase. The darkey avecs that
colored man conjured him when he
was boy, and that he has been tor'
men'cd with The animal ever since.
