Sam Jones, an uneducated Georgian, has
been creating genuine sensation as an evan
gelist in several Southern cities during the
past winter, and his career awakens curiosity
at the North because of the evident sincerity
of the man, coupled with an intensity and
grotesqueness which inevitably raise smile.
Audiences of 5000 TO 5000 people of
all grades gather night after night to
hear him preach. He makes no pretence to
argumentative preaching, but his discourses
abound in compact, striking epigrams and
quick flashes of wit which cut TO the quick
and make men ashamed of their sins in spite
of themselves. He is now holding meetings
in Nashville, and here are a few examples of
his style:
Some preachers" he said recently, ''are
so elegant that they always refer 10 hell as
the burnt district This sort of dignity is
the starch of shroud" Another time he
said Pull up your doubts by the roots and
you'll find a seed at the bottom, and that
seed is sim Once he reused the sluggish
by saying MANY good Christians sleep 80
sound that the devil can come up and saw off
their heads with dull case knife before thev
wake" 81 can get along better" he said
again, with most everything in this world
than with people who talk too much" "A
lie is always on the down grade, but the
truth you have to hitch an engine to-" An
other time he exclaimed "Opnions ruin the
world. That old colonel-the old cuss-will
say, it's my opinion so and So They get
their opinions from the old colonel, and he
gets his from hell. saw to them, shut up,
you old blab- mouthed fools" whats cul-
ture worth, he asked again, ''if it's nothing
but whitewash on a rascal? I'd rather be in
heaven learning my A b C's than in hell stud
ying Greek. My God, keep my boy pure and
honest and let him die fool" Talk about
an honest man starving to death, he broke
out the other day they won't starve. God
will feed an honest man if he has to put the
angels Oh half rations" Still further in the
same line he said BE honest and pay your
debts. There's too many men in the church
boarding with their wives"
His approach to Nashville was signalized
by disreputable attacks on the part of the
gambling and liquor fraternities but with
went deeper when he said, "Pm tired of
hearin' these liquor dealers and bar tenders
abused. Because il these Msthodists and
Baptists and Presbyterians would quit drink
ing whisky half the liquor saloons would be
closed. A woman that marries a man with
whisky in his breath is the biggest fool in
the world except the one who stirs the toddy
for him after she is married" After few
days Of talk in this line advertisements began
TO appear in the Nashville papers Offering
certain saloons for sale. The Nashville Amer
lean gives the man credit for being bold.

InocuIaGIon for Cholera,

The belief that means of preventing the
spread of cholera by incubation has been
discovered by DIR. Ferran, a young Spanish
physician, is attaining such currency that it
is proposed to make the matter a subject of
investigation by the Spanish government.
Dr. Ferran has inoculated many persons,
himself among the number, with the Guilt
waited bacillus or cholera mierobe to which
attention was first called by DR.. Koch. No
case of death has occurred in the districts af-
feoted by cholera among inocuated persons.
Animals inoculated with the virus die from
the effect with choleraic symptoms. In the
case of human beings the suffering is less in-
tense and not fatal, whilst successive inocu-
lations are harmless. OF course il ia impos-
sible to say how long the security obtained
from incubation may last. That can only
be determined by experience but it is pos
sible that at last a certain means of staying
the ravages of cholera has been found.

fThe story Of curious old law oase-coutributed
TO Every Other Saturday by Rev. Brooke Herford.l
Among some old sheets OF q Methodist
magazine, date lacking, apparently about
1870, we came recently upon a curious ac-
count OF a case which happened about the
middle Of last century. The whole account,
as printed in these papers, is as follows;
IAN Account OF Mr. Booty extracted from
Captain Spnks Journal and from the Rec
ords Of the Court Of Kings Bench
Tuesday, May 12, we anchored in Msnsat
Road, with Captain Barnsby, Captain Bris-
tow, and Captain Brewer. About six O'Clock,
we all four weighed anchor and sailed for the
island Of Lusara Friday, 18th, about two
O'Clock, we saw the island and about seven
came to an anchor in twelve fatbom water.
Saturday 10th, we [the captaInsl, with Mr..
Ball, merchant OF Wentworth, went on shore
ia order to shoot curlews on Mount Strem-
bolO. Half an hour and fourteen minutes
after three, we called all our men TO us, when
we all, TO our great surprise, saw two men
running with amazing swifiness and Cap.
tain Barnaby cried out, Lord bless me the
foremost man is Mr.. Booty, my next neigh
Dor in London He was in gray clothes with
cloth buttons He that ran after him was in
black. They both ran straight into the burn
ing mountain, and at the instant was such
noise as made us all tremble. Captain Barn
aby said, 4 do not doubt but 1t is old Booty
running into hell ! and, as soon as we came
ON board, he desired us to mark the time,
and write it down in our journals, which we
did. We returned to Gravesend, October g.
Captain Barnaby then went for the rest, 10
congratulate them on their safe arrival Al
ter some discourse, Captain Barnsby's wife
said, Il can tell you some news old Booty Is
dead He answered, That we all know
for we saw him run into hell Mrs. Barna-
by related this to an acquaintance in London,
and she informed Mrs. Booty of it. On this,
Mrs. Booty arrested Captain Barnaby in an
action of a thousand pounds. II came to q
trial in the Court Of Kings Bench. The four
captains, Mr.. Ball, and all the men made
oath that they saw him run very swiftly and
leap into the burning mountain that he had
on gray coat with cloth buttons, which was
brought into the court, and exactly answered
the description and that they all set it down
just then in their journals, which we're also
produced in court, and answered the time
when he died to two minutes as appeared
from the sexton Of the parish, and several
others who we're with him at his death. In
summing up the evidence, the Lord Chief
Justice said, Two or three may be mistaken
but we cannot suppose above thirty were
So the cause was given for the defendant"

Jim Webster was brought up before an
Austin justice of the peace. 1t was the same
old charge that used to bother him in Calves
ton After the evidence was all in, the judge,
with perplexed look, said
"But do not comprehend, Webster, how
il was possible for you to steal those chick
enc, when they we're roosting right under the
owners window, aud there were two vicious
dogs 10 the yard"

In the ringing Of Times changes
There are days which seem 70 give,
In their sad aud sacred music,
Harmonies that ever live.
Deep upon Fame's glowing record
Many noble names are 'graved,
Telling how for right and honor
Dangers cen to death we're bravedi
Yet we search the scroll but vainly
For the thousands, tried and true,
Who along the line Of duty
Passed Ia unrecOrded view.
While to loved and honored leaders
History accords just fame,
Let rs chant the host so mighty
Lying with forgotten name,
Save, perohanoe, that in some fond heart
There IL void that naught eau Gil,
And the face and form Of dear one
Is a cherished mem'ry still.
Standing, with bowed hearts and rev'rent,
on this consecrated plain,
We believe these nameless heroes
Gave their lives, oh not in vain.
whether smote by fell diseases,
Or in storm Of fiery rain,
Let rs feel these sacrifices
Were for all the futures gain.
In the blessed peace around us,
In the ties OF state unbrokn,
Come to us the strong conviction
That Gods mandate then was spok'n.
IL It not, then, meet aud fitting
Grateful hearts should make some sign
Tenderly bend DER the fallen?
Recognize the hand diyine2
Let us ofttimes, 10 the crowdiDg
OF our busy work and care,
Stop aud ponder the brave story,
Give Of thought gen'rous share.
It will make our lives more worthy
The great gain which was their loss;
Make their love a flaming beacon,
II on stormy seas we toss.
May we oft, in quiet moments,
To the children by our side,
Tell, IN solemn. tender accents,
or the cause and how they died
Let MS on bright Freedoms altar
Ever keep the living hrei
Keep the heritage unsulied!
To the noblest heights aspirel
That our souls may catch the rhythm
OF the grand, heroic theme;
Feel the mighty inspiration
OF the overwhelming stream,
Which, with strong, resistless volume,
still is moving for the right,
Bearing on it's silent current,
To the ages, strength and light.
As the swift-recurring seasons
Oft renew this days fair scene,
With kind words and loving tributes
Let us keep these memries green.
Brolhersi fast your ranks are thinning,
Close them mp and foricdrd press:
Yours the holy benediction
That your deeds the millions bless.

Ostentatious funerals are going out of style
in the large cities, and simplicity and privacy
are sought, Ia New York funeral services
are now almost invariably held at the resi-
denoe of the deceased. few OF the person
al friends are invited and the crowd Is given
TO understand that there is no room for them.
Funeral private" is frequently attached to
announcements of deaths Last week
daughter OF the late poet Wm. Cullen Bryant
died. aud the funeral notice informed people
that there would be funeral services at the
residence at 0 o'clock in the evening, and
that the burial would be at the convenience
of the family. The result was that none but
real mourners came, aud the services had
none of the airs of public funeral.
