Horrible Tragedy in Pickens.

On Tuesday night last, according TO a
report which reached here yesterday, a
most shocking occurrence took place in
Pickens County, few miles from the
own of Pickens. Dick Mulligan, a
white man, while drunk. seized chair
with Which he attempted to strike down
mis- wife. Fleeing from him the wife
.ucceeded in dodging fearful blow as
Mulligan hurled the chair at her. Just
t the momen, their li;le ten year old
laughter stepped in line with the flying
hair in time to receive its full force
upon her head. The little girl was there
oy knocked down and instantly killed.
Mulligan was somewhat sobered by the
horribleness of what lie had done, and
.eeiug that lie had murdered his child
ne repaired to a room in the house where
no drew razor and cut his throat from
ear to ear. He fell-upon the floor almost
instantly. The entire affair occurred, it
i. said, in very few minutes. Mulligan
and bis child were buried at Sharon
church on Wednesday last Greenvile

Do.

The girls who have pored over the
pages Of the little book called DON'T
are now invited by an exchange to ac-
.cept advice in regard to things they
should do.
Do be natural; poor diamond is bet.
ter than good imitation.
Do try to be accurate, not only for
yonr own sake, but for the sake of your
sex the incapacity of the female mind
for accuracy is staTdard argument
against the equality of the sexes.
Do be exact-io money matters; every
debt you incur means loss to some one,
probably to some one less able than you
to bear it..
Do answer your letters soon after they
are received, and do try to reply to them
with relation to their contents; ramb.
ling, ill. considered letter is satire upon
your education.
Do observe; the faculty of observa.
ton we'll cultivated, makes practical
men and women.
DO attach as much Importance to your
mind as to your body.
DO recollect that your health is of more
importance than your. amusement; you
can live without the one, but you'll die
early without the other.
Do try to be sensible; it is not par.
ticular sign of superiority to talk like 8
fool:
DO be ready in time for church if
YOU do not respect yourself sufficiently
to he punctual, respect the feelings of
other p ople.
d. get up in time for breakfast.
D. avoid causes of irritation in your
family circle, do reflect that home is the
place in which to be agreeable.
Do be reticent; the world at large has
no interest in your private affairs.
Do cultivate the habit of listening to
others; il will make you an invaluable
member OF society. to say nothing of the
advantage it will be to YOU Shen you
marry.
Do be contented martyrs are detest
.ble; cheerful happy spirit is infect.
Gus and you can carry it about with you
like sunny atmosphere. Do avoid
whispering; it is as bad as giggling;
both are to be condemned: there is no
excuse for either one of them; if you
nave anything to say, say it, if you have
not, do hold your tongue altogether; 81
ierce is gold.
Do be truthful; do avoid exaggeration
if you mean mile, say q mile, apd nor
a mile and a.half; if you mean one, say
pne, and not dozen.
Do, sometimes, at least allow your
mother to know better than you do; she
was educated. before you we're bo,n.-

1t Was His Glass Eye.

A conductor on the Boston and Provi
dence road tells the story of a young lady
of this town who entered the noon train
for Boston the other day. She seated
herself opposite a gentlemen who from
the fr,t seemed to be gazing fixedly at
her. She became indignant at length,
and inquired.
"Why do you look at me SO, sir?"
He said he was not aware of having
done so, but she insisted.
"I beg your pardon, madam, but it's
this eye, is it not?" lifting his finger to
his left optic.

"Well, madam, that eye won't do you
any harm. It's glass eye, only glass

St0newall Jackson's Horse:

ROME, GA, February S.-Stonewall
Jackson's famous horse. Fancy, arrived
here to day, en- route to the New Orleans
Exposition. AT noon, several hundred
people, including number of ladies,
assembled in front of Reney's stable to
catch glimpse of the animal. The
horse was brought out, and for some time
a large crowd gazed upon him with great
interest. Major Locher, OF the Virginia
Military Institute, who is in charge OF
the horse, states that in every city and
town along the route great crowds assem-
bled to get sight OF Jackson's steed.
At Bristol. Tennessee, forty young ladies
surrounded the horse and kissed him.
Fancy's name and tail have been almost
denuded of hair by relic hunters. The
horse is now 81 years old.

solemn looking negro entered and pre-.

"Thirty days hath September,

All the rest have thirty.one,
Excepting February which has twenty

We clip the following from the Naiad:
The months and the knuckles. Have
you tried this in your school? If not,
try it. With schoo! in order, make your
LETT hand into fist: with the index fin
ger of the right hand, touch the knuckle
of the first finger on left hand, and say
January touch the space between the
first and second knuckle, and say Febru-
ary; touch next knuckle, aud say March,
aud so on through to last knuckle, when
you will have July. Then come back to
irst knuckle, and say August, aud thus
continue until you reach December.
Now repeat, aud have the pupils follow
you, performing the same movements.
Repeat again, and continue until nearly
or quite all can name the months in
order. When this is done, call the at
tention of tbe school to the fact that,
every time you touch knuckle, the
month mentioned contains thirty. one
days; and that, when you touch the space
between the knuckles, the month men.
toned contains some other number; this
other number must be either t,oenty- eight,
tsoenty.ninc, or thirty. Usually for Feb.
ruary it is t,uenty eight, but t,oenty nine for
leap year. and all other months mention
ed must be thirty. If your school does
not get this at one exercise, then you are
at fault in giving it.

a teacher in Oconee County asks
whether Anderson pays for children un
der six years of age. The law regulates
that matter for all the counties. If the
law allowed it, in our humble judgment
no child under six years ought to be sent
to school. 1t is unreasonable, at least
sunki6d, to require child of that age t"
conform to all the rules aud regulations
of q we'll governed school; and to make
an exception of him and allow him
special liberties would entail upon him
habits that will be hard to overcome.

One never forgets his own name, be
cause he hears it repeated so often. Ere
quent reviews are necessary to impress
the lessons already learned. We like
the plan adopted by one of our best
teachers. His classes in algebra are re-
,quired to recite one lesson day in arith
metic. While this review lesson does
mot fought not) require a great deal OF
.stady, it impresses on the mind Of the
pupil what he has already learned, and,
no doubt, reveals.to him new beauties in
the intricacies of mathematics.

The New Orleans Exposition is in full
blast. While our teachers are earnestly
endeavoring to teach their pupils some
thing about the memorable events in
their country's history. their neighbors
are busy in New Orleans making more
history TO be learned and taught by the
children of to. day. Let every teacher
20 outside of his text book for something
fresh to teach his class. Teach them the
history of to day in connection with that
of the past. 1t is fresher; it ID more
tangible (if that is the word), and boy
naturally feels greater interest in it.
Let every historical event.of importance,
with which the State of Louisiana, es.
.pecially the City of New Orleans, has
had any connection, be firmly impressed
upon the mind of the boy.
