For the most part, the paths of
literature, had Iavished great deal
of very small wit in ridiculing WON
en-, but women might in many in
stances have retaliated had the
weapons been in their hands The
sexes, speaking generally, are not
equal, either physically or mentally.
If they are, why does not the women
WOO instead of the man If they
are equal mentally, why does not
the women, feeling the need of
protector, ask for oneY A woman
could say to a man, 81 am weak ;
be my support y but what woman
can say to a man, admire me z"
Yet the bond that attracts man to
woman always begins with admire,
ton. Women acknowledge the diff
ference, but not the inferiority Of
their sex, by their admiration for
masculine strength, and unless a
man has some strength, mentally or
physically, he can never attract any
hut silly misses. The sexes sre not
equal but there is no inferiority on
one side or the other. Woman's
gifts may not be SO strong but they
are quite as valuable as those of men
and woman should be always the
partner, not the subordinate, of her
husband

as character is concerned, was sent
with high recommendations to Sena-

post was what vas wanted, the SEN

woman brought her application.
The Senator and a friend look ed
over it. and concluded that it clearly
showed the writer incompetent for
the position sought. She was in

a burst of tears !: Now, see how
easy it is to make a mistake. That
was written by person high up in
the department. AS for myself, !

A ROMANTIC CASE.

n sensational anu rOmauIlc case
has been brought to light on the is>
suing of a warrant by Gov. Stephens
on the requisition of the Governor
of South Carolina for the arrest of
II. G. Porte. About twelve years
ago Porte moved from Marion coun>
ty, S. c.. and settled near Palmetto,
in this State. He was accompanied
by woman who was supposed to
be his wife, and by two boys pre-
sumed to be their children, He
proved to be a man of Industry, and
won the good opinion of his neigh
bors, who refused to believe in his
guilt when the sheriff arrived with
warrant for his arrest on a charge
of kidnapping and obtsini' 6 money
under false pretenses Porte was
taken to Farburn, where, without
reserve, be made the foil wing state
ment He and man named Smith
and the woman with whom he has
been living were raised in the same
neighborhood, and when they were
young Porte and Smith were rivals
for the woman's affections, but by
misrepresentation Smith aIenated
her from Porte and married her. A
short time thereafter Porte married,
and the two families settled near
each other and lived several years
as neighbors Porte and his wife
lived happily together until she died
Smith and bis wife did not live so
happily, frequent disturbances &C,
curing between them, which Smith
often beat her numerically. The
death of bis wife caused the old |
flame for his former sweetheart to
burn afresh in Porte's breast, and he
sympathized with her on her cruel
treatment received at the hands of
her husband She knew that Porte
still entertained kindly feelings to
ward her, and frequently importun>
ed him to take Der away to some
strange place, avowing that she still
loved him and expressing penitence
for the way she had treated him in
marrying Smith. He refused to be
anything more than a sympathizing
friend, on account of the friendly
that existed between Smith
and himself. Smith had been pros
porous in business until he became
dissipated, when he got financially
embarrassed, and reposed confidence
10 his friend Porte and asked him to
assist him in saving part of his
property from his creditors. He
had turned over some cotton to
Porte to sell for him in his own
name. Porte sold it and took the
proceeds S200--to Smiths house
to deliver to him. When he arriv>
ed Smith was just leaving the house,
aud on going in Porte found Mrs.
Smith PROSTATE on the floor bleed
ing from wounds received from her
husband. He helped her up aud
washed the blood from her face, paid
the money to her for her husband,
and started to leave, When she cling
to him and begged him to take her
with him aud flee to a distant coun>
try, promising bin to live with him
if he would do so. Yielding to her
request Porte took Mrs. Smith and
her two children and eloped into
Georgia, where they have lived 10
undisturbed happiness for twelve
years. Smith having learned of
their whereabouts, he made propo-
sition to Porte that if be would re-
turn the children, furniture and the
two hundred dollars he would COM
promise the case. The grand jury,
however, will have some hing to say
about it.

Enquirer Sun: Yesterday morn

Enquirer Sun Yesterday morn
ing Mr.. John w. Riddle, was the
victim of sad accident which may
disable him for life. He was out
hunting on his place 10 Harris cOun-
ty, about sixteen miles above this
city, in company with his friend,
Mr.. J. A. Lovelace. They had sep
arated and we're on the lookout for
a rabbit. Mr.. Lovelace heard the
report of a gun and heard a cry of
pain, and ran in the direction from
which the sound came. He found
Mr.. Riddle lying on the ground with
the blood gushing from his right
arm. He was perfectly conscious
however, and stated that he was
standing on log watching for a
rabbit, when bis gun slipped, and
the hammer striking the log and the
whole load entered the armpit. Ii
will require three or four days to
Judge of the exact extent OF the
wound.

QUININE AS A CAUSE OF INsAN-
ITY.

1TY.
From the American Medical Weekly.
The father of Washington laws
yer guilty of escapades has recently
given the following explanation of
the cratic victim: thinking it
safe thing to do, my son has been
10 the habit for months of carrying
quinine ia his pockets, and taking
it in small but frequent doses,, and
the result is an elated, sanguine
state of mind, quite beyond the
bounds of reason. His memory is
not yet impaired, and the marked
improvement already consequent
upon being deprived of sthe drug
gives his friends reason to expect
complete restoration in a short time
Meanwhile let this case be one of
many others to teach us all that, ex>
cellent as quinine may be in many
eases, it is, like choral or opium or
alcohol, exceedingly dangerous to
triAe with" The question which
naturally arises in the mind of the
physician, on reading this, is wheth,
er quinine has ever been reported as
causing insanity There are at
least two cases on record, both of
them reported in the Journal of Ner-
vous and Mental Disease, July,
1881. In both insanity always fol
lowed upon the Use of quinine, and,
from the character of the two re-
ported cases, its seems certain that
in some predisposed cases brief,
durable insanity may follow upon
the use of quinine.

SMALL Pox IN DGKALB COUNTY.

The negro heretofore reported
near Good wins station in DeKalb
county, as having the small pox has
since died, as has also one other,
and the third is expected to die very
soon. These are the only cases in
that neigbborhood, but few miles
from there, 10 Shallowford district,
near the residence of W. j. Donald
son, on the Roswell narrow gauge
railroad, there are three white per~
sons who have the disease. 1t seems
that citizen of that district was
sick several days, and that a num-
Der of his neighbors and friends Wis,
tied him during his ilncss, and sat
up with and help nurse him, and
when be died his funeral services
were held at the church, and the
coffin was opened, so that all who
desired to might see the corpse, and
10 this way more than two hundred
persons were exposed to the disease,
which after the burial was decided
to be small pox instead of the meas,
les, as was supposed during his ILL
ness. The three persons who now
have the disease are members of the
same family of the one that died.
