EVANS loo. music.
Caution to the Public

| MUSIC BUYERS should not be deceived by
| Ql those who offer Evans Music at cents
per copy. There are two editions OF Evans
| Music. The Old s. Cent Edition and the Ne10
| 10 Cent Edition. For information we will
| state that Evans Music was originally, and
until the past few months sold generally at
cents per copy, and was then. from neceSsity.
| printed upon poor paper. No reputable Music
| House then sold 1t, as it was too poor to sell.
The Publishers are noao issuing Improved
| Editions upon good paper and have raised the
| price to 10 cents. Under the personal assur-
| ance of Mr.. w. A. Evans that this Music was
| to be sold uniformity at 10 cents by the Prin-
| cipal Houses at Boston, by their Branches at
| New York, Philadelphia, Cincinnati, Chicago,
| St. Louis and by their Agencies, we accepted
the Agency under the following written con-
tract, viz:
| SAVANNAH, GA, Dec. 4, 1884.
Ludden DC Bates Southern Music House:
In consideration of your purchase from us
| of 10000 Copies of our Music we do make you
| Wholesale and Retail in the states of Georgia,
| North and South Carolina, Mississippi and
| Alabama, We also agree to keep you supplied
with Ten Cent Catalogues.
(Signedl W. A. EVANS u BRO.
1t will thus be seen that we are the Sole
| authorized agents for this Music, and that its
| regular price is 10 cents per copy.
There are still large supplies of the old s.
Cent Editions in the hands of dealers at the
| North, some Of aChich has been imported to
| Sd0GnRdh, but Evans Il Bro. a0iU not sell their
| New l0-Cent Editions to any save their
Agents. There are also old Catalogues Of )
| Cent Music to be had, but Evans II Co. will
not furnish their Latest Catalogues to any but
| their Agents.
A Scent Music Dealer in this city states
| that w. A. Evans Il Bro. is now printing
| several thousand catalogues for him. We
would not intimate that this is not so, but, all
| the same, zoe don't beIieUe IT, He may sur
reptitiOuSIy obtain through some Cheap Music
90 or in q NJ q 10 ant
| Catalogues, upon q0hich he can haze his Oa0n
name printed, but Evans Il Co. will not print
| them specially or bR09oingIy for him. Con-
corning this we shall have more to say as soon
as we can hear from them. Our rights in this
| matter have been trespassed on and we shall
/ sift the business to the bottom. Bring in these
| s. Cent Catalogues and we will show you that
ours are later and contains hundreds more
pieces, and also that our Music is of better
! grades and quality.
5-CENT MUSIC GIVEN AWAY.
We are still giving away the cheap Scent
| Music. There's lots left and loads of it
coming. Come in and get some.

The condition Of BrOUghtOn street, the
principal retail thOrOughfare of the city,
with its slOughs of mud after heavy
rain, is matter Of general complaint
among the merchants. Since the rains a
week ago both sides of the street in the
business centre, between Whitaker and
Barnard streets, have been transformed
for a considerable distance irto a deep
mud pond backing up Oh the sidewalk,
and. after a heavy shower, rendering it
almost impossible TO pedestrians. Messrs.
Abrahams x Birnbaum have had a pho
tograph taken of the pond IN front of
their store, and will submit it to the City
Council on Wednesday night with a petit
ton for the improvement of the street, or
a remedy for the evil in some way.

Some Dogs.
From the Chicago Mail. l


 There is in possession of one of our best known physicians in this city relic of the disastrous fight in which Custer and his command were slaughtered. It is an Eng fish bull-terrier, nine or ten years old and totally blind. It was the property of Cap tain Cook, who was slain with his comman- der on that day of eventful horror. The dog, which followed him everywhere, was in the thick of the fight and was picked up by the orderly, the only man of the command who escaped, and who through his flight and concealment carried the dog with him. Its warlike propensities are gone now and it is as lazy and fastidious dog as ever outlived it's triumphs. It is the chief friend and companion of parrot, who will not allow it to leave the room without it clamors: Crop sy, Topsy, Topsy."
 The same physician who now owns this in teresting animal once sent a present to Mrs. General Custer 8 be autiful coach dog which had been the attendant of his rounds in Canada Mrs. Custer bestowed the dog on friend living in Kentucky when she left for the East, and the dog was made the companion of the little girl ot the family For this child the dog conceived one of those infatuations for which dogs above all other animals of the brute creation have been dis tinguished. He played with her, walked with her, ate by her, slept near her. followed her if she rode and mourned inconsolably if she left home without him. It was the evil fate of this little child to contract the scarlet fever, and through all her illness the dog never left her side unless forced to do so, and then his howls were so unceasing that for quiet's sake he was admitted again to the sick-room. The little girl died and her dis consolate friend laid full length beside the coffin, rising now and then to lick the cold face. When the coffin was carried from the house he followed it. and when the small mound that covered it was raised he resumed his watch there. No entreaties could per suade him to leave it. He never tasted food again. and in the course of nature followed his little friend-it may be beyond the con fines of that mysterious hereafter where those who love are reunited.

A scotch Parson,s Bargain.

Leaves From the Note Book of T. A. Resd.1
 The length of sermons varies greatly, an d no reporter should undertake to report a ser . mon for given price, especially low one, unless he has some assurance as to the length to which it will run. In my early professional practice Scotch clergyman en- gagged me to report series of sermons de- livered by himself. He told me that he de- sired to publish them, but that he should probably gain nothing by the enterprise, and he made strong appeal to me to undertake the work for the lowest possible remunera- tion. 1 yielded to his entreaty and fee was fixed that would have been inadequate for the shortest sermons ever delivered. Imag- inc the state of my feelings at the close of the first sermon. It had lasted exactly two hours and twenty minutesl The work of transcription was about the weariest I have ever undertaken. The reflection was contin- ually forcing itself upon me that there were five other discourses to follow. And they did follow in due course; none of them quite reached the length of the first, but the short est was just an hour and half. My clerical friend expressed himself highly satisfied with the transcripts, and once or twice invi- ted me to his house after the service; but he He held me to my bargain, and even ven tured to suggest that he might again avail himself of my services! I remember anoth- CT sermon that lasted precisely as long as the one have mentioned. It by Irish bishop, and was preached for the Church Missionary society, by whom was employed. I need hardly say that that body voluntarily increased my fee in consideration of the in ordinate length of the discourse.

IS IT UNCONSTITUTIONAL?


 The progress of MT. James A. Hinckley's suit against Dorman B. Eaton and his associ- ate commissioners to test the constitutional ity of the civil service law will be watched with interest. The court has issued an order of quo warranto returnable on the 25th instant, requiring the commissioners to make answer to the complaint that they are using unconstitutional powers. The relator points out what the commissioners assume to be their duties, and claims that by the civil ser vice laws the Presidents constitutional pow CT of appointment is restricted. MT. Hinckley alleges that the law, by limiting the Presi- dents choics of certain officers to those whose qualifications are approved by the commissioners, divests the executive of the duties and responsibilities vested in him by the constitution; and that the President can not exercise his constitutional power to ap- point in his discretion the relator Hinckley or any citizen to offices of honor, trust or profit in the departments to which the civil service act relates without the approval and the certificates of the commissioners and their examining boards. The relator is there fore deprived of his rights under the con- stitution and the rights of the people are in vaded.
 This is interesting, and somewhat plausi- ble Whether the civil service act has or has not interfered with the Presidents pre- rogative it has interfered with the rapid and indiscriminate appointment of good Demo crats to office. They feel this very deeply, and will wish MT. Hinekley speedy success in his suit. Ben Butler has already declared that the civil service act Is uneonstitutional. He is good lawyer, but it remains to be seen what Judge Wallace, before whom Hinekley's suit has been brought, thinks about the matter.

an asylum is no more detrimental to social ida. Dr. Fletcher does not regard our sys- tenn of education as a notably exciting cause of insanity. The evidence is rather to the contrary, the great majority of the insane coming from the ranks of the ignoMnt, where nature has supplied little mental power to begin with, and art has done less The doctor is also in sympathy with the be- lief that the use of alcoholic beverages and narcotics is not. in itself, prime cause of insanity.
 In an article in the Brooklyn Magazine Joseph c. Hendrix has something to say about what is not learned in the public schools, as follows: It is a curious fact that many city boys reach the end of the school course without being able to tell what a monkey wrench is, or describe a cross-cut saw, or define the uses of turning lathe, while piston, steam box or a throttle valve are all far beyond their ken. They can, however, tell the number of elementary sounds in the language and the significance of the whole cluster of diacritical marks, all of which soon fade out of their minds. 0 In the limited time that the State has the privilege of teaching children in the Twelfth ward, it seems absurd to proceed with them with the circumstance that marks the work in the schools on the Hill, where the children will stay twice as long. Yet this is the present system. To change it means the risk of a demagogic cry of one school for the rich and another for the poor. Accordingly, the poor suffer. Some liberty should be allowed to principal to suit the education he directs to the necessities of those under his care, that the boy who must be bread-winning at twelve shall not be des- boiled of valuable time in ascertaining to a shade the fourteen sounds of the vowel A.

 Some time ago we announced that we had been large buyers of Flannels at the great Auction Sale held in New York, and that in due season we would place them on sale. Could the manufacturers have foreseen the turn the market would take, we think there would have been no auction sale. Wool has ad- vanced, is advancing, and will still more advance. Flannels have advanced. But having said we would give our custom CTS the advantage of our Pur- chase we mean to do 1t.
