Like Paris, Handsome and Like Hector, Bold.
In Winfield Scots Army Of Occapa-
ton, of MemicO, there was not more
accomplished soldier and perfect gen.
tleman, and in JEFF. Davis Sufferin'
Confectionery there was not one either
Drawer or better-looking than Gen.
Jno. S. Williams-old Cerro Gordo-
the present U. S. Senator from Ken
lucky. In the Mexican war this hero
was captain OF an Independent Com
pany, which at the battle of Cerro
Gordo was attached to the I'd Tennes-
see, w. I. Haskelrs regiment. Just
before going into that engagement the
gallant Col. was loudly cheered by his
men and called ON for a speech. WAY
ing his sword, he said: @Boys, follow
Inc, and if am killed in this fight see
that the d-n newspapers spell my
name correctly"
Haskell was once Governor OF the
State of Tennessee, having been unan-
imously elected. He was a splendid
orator, and those who have listened to
his matchless eloquence can never
forget it. Poor, crazed and neglected
by his friends, ne died an inmate of
the lunatic asylum at Hopkinsyille.
Vanitas VdnitdtHDl!
Gov. A. ii. Garland, Lazy Gus, the
u. S. Senator from Arkansas, has for
ever gone back ON his lifelong friend,
Jno. Barleycorn. Senator Garland,
one OF the brainiest members of the
United States Senate, in former times
was mighty fond of whiskey, and had
good time with the boys now and
then. He. is n tetotaler now, and
would not crown a compliment to a
fair listener with a glass of champagne.
Recently when rallied by some OF his
fellow Senators on his abstemiousness,
gave the following cause thereof: mo,
gentlemen, there's nothing the matter
with me, but I've quit. You know we
had pretty hot canvass in Arkansas
last summer, and | went all over the
State stumping. Well, l saw the
graves of many good fellows who be-
gan life with me, and who are now in
the dark valley or the light one
whichever it may be. | saw the
wrecks of other men who started out
with me to be jolly good fellows. The

On IL rough calculation | found that |
had already drank about two barrels
and half more than | was entitled to.
Then said to myself if | drank any
more | should be drinking some other
fellows whisl1ey, AMI as didn't want
to do that stopped. There you have
the whole story"
Gen. Jno. A. Logan, the U. 5. Sena-
tor from Illinois, soon after the war
began took an advanced position in
regard to negro suffrage. At that
time Morton and other Republican
leaders were expressing conservative
views. One of this redoubtable war
rior's friends demonstrated with him,
saying: "You should be careful and
not so too fast. Keep with the people.
Remember also that the dear, good
people may at any time flop" "Never
fear for me, said Logan, I'm all right,
I'm not going it blind, am watching
the signs of the times, and | think l
am in the popular current, but l sim

good people can flop any quicker

PETERsON's MAGAZINE for July is before
us, with one of the most exquisite steel en-
cravings we have ever seen, "Chasing The
Butterfly" alone is worth the price of the
number. Then there is a charming cOlOred
pattern in crewels, "POmegranates and
Leaves" and something like fifty wood
cuts of dresses, workable patterns, etc,
etc. a perfect galaxy of good things. The
most noticeable article is an illustrated one,
"a London Dinner Party" by Mrs. Ann $.
stephens, describing a dinner, ut which she
was present, at the late Earl OF Carlislo's.
Nothing that we have ever read brings he
fore one, so Vividly, the state and splenoCr
of such a meal, in the houses of what DIS
raeli used to call 1.-THE higher aristOcracy."
There are, in addition, several capital love-
stories; especially white Simplicity" of
very unusual merit, even for peterson"

the best and cheapest of the ladies' books

advise everybody to subscribe. No family
should be without it, for the low price-only
two dollars year-placing it within the

would be more 50 than laws against
robbery and murder. Every now and
then VIC are shocked by the perpetra-
ton of some great crime. The law
may be as strong against it as we would
have il, and the sentiment of the best
part of society may be united in con-
demning it and wanting to uphold the
law. Yet the crime is committed
And that is not all; the criminal may
escape punishment but are we to re
peal the law because it can't wholly
prevent offences, or in all cases punish
offenders?

TEMPERANCE COZ UMN.
rev. ). a. eooDrAsrUsE. Eal.or
In all undertakings Of a pubic ma


In all undertakings Of a public ma
ture it is of much importance that the
best men be put in the front. The
offices should be filled by strong and
tried men, 1t is sometimes the mis-
guided policy o. Temperance organi-
tons to usher at once into responsible
places reformed drunkards whose
breath has hardly ceased to smell. 1t
may be true that such course will
make the incentive to abstinence some
what stronger but if such additional
incentive is needed, it only shows that
the whole reformation is too superb
cial and cannot long endure. Mere
pride is not good ground upon which
to hope TO save the drunkard. And
even If it should in some instances
lead to the holding out OF the indivia-
ual, still the effect of those in these POI
sitions who filIback into dissipation, is
so great in weakening the society and
Gripping its future usefulness as to
more than counteract the good done
in the other instances. Put the very
best men you have in all your offices,
then they will command the confidence
of the public. | don't care who the
reformed inebriate is, as a rule, the
public have little confidence in him
for sometime after he joins. So many
of them fall back that it is nothing but
reasonable to fear to trust any of them
with offices. Facts are facts. No so
ciety acts with discretion which turns
its control, or any important part OF it,
over to the untried man who has just
begun a reformed life. Trust to honor
rather than to pride, and look to the
permanent establishment and useful
ness Of the movement. The end of a
temperance movement begun to-day,
may be greatly felt in an attempt to
start one hereafter. The enemies of
such movements can point with effect
to the officers OF the old one, when they
have fallen back. Suppose that we
had list of the names and present
standing of the officers of all the socie-
ties organized in 1878. expect that
the per cent of them who would be
found to have fallen would be greater
than among the common members.
Why? Because of the prominence
given to noted drinkers when they
Join in order to hold them. This is
great fault, that is calculated to retard
very much the success of the cause.
Let the officers in all instances where
it is practicable, be composed OF men
who have never been under its domin-
ion, whose lives in the past, and whose
character ut the time, unite in a giving
strong guarantee that they will not
become addicted to it in the future.

Ii is said that the late Judge Alvin
Cullom, of this State, was in early life
quite dissipated. One day rs he lay
heastly drunk in village of his coun-
ty, some one passing by remarked to
his companion, that it was n pity Il
man who might have accomplished
something should have thrown himself
away as CullOm had. These persons
passed ON, but he was not so drunk
but that the words which he had over
heard stuck in his mind, aud began to
work powerfully upon him. lie may
never have fully realized before what
he had done. At all events he deter
mined to abandon the cup. He so
bered up, and still held to his resolu-
ton. From that time ON he was Il so
her man, and was remarkable for his
strong common sense. He studied
law late in life, was perhaps so, but
succeeded well was once elected Cir
cult Judge, and also represented the
State in Congress. He so mOnopolized
the practice in the conrts held in Over
ton county, ut one time, that they were
called Cullom's Courts. This may,
however, have been partly due to the
fact that much of the practice which
was not il his hands was in the hands
of his brother, Gen. William CullOm
of Anderson County, who was himself
once clerk OF the lower House of
Congress, and if he had with the resolu-
ton of his brother have made the same
good determination early in life, would
bythis time, in all likelihood, have had
a record unsurpassed in the history of
the State, for brilliancy and the display
of genius. They are uncles of ex-Gov.
Leslie Cullonl of Illinois, and of the
late Judge James McHenry of Nash
Vile.

Dear Sir: Your letter of the list inst.
has lust been received. | am glad to
know that at last we have great
question that lies near to the heart of
good citizens everywhere, upon which
Alabama and Kansas can stand side by
side, and work shoulder to shoulder in
one common cause. God bless your
State i'm her efforts to free the homes of
the people from the curse of rum.
Prohibition in this State, as a whole, is
not only grand success, but is grow
ing stronger with the people every day,
and any proposition to return to the
old system of licensed dram shops
would now be defeated by at least So
600 majority. | intend, as soon as
can possibly free myself from duties
here, to visit the South, and | shall be
pleased to come to Alabama. | trust
that the good people of your State will
press forward in the good work until
YOU have eventually reached absolute
prohibition of the liquor traffic; thus,
State after State will be united, and in
less than quarter of n century, by an
amendment to the Constitution of the
United States, prohibition of the inn
pOrtatiOn, manufacture and sale of in
toxicating liquors, as a beverage, will
be made absolute throughout the cOun-
try.
l will send you some Temperance
documents by tO-day's mail. With my
