HYDROPHOBIA,

Crawfordyille Democrat: Mr.. Rob
ert Portwood, living a few miles from
Crawtordville, had a COW that was
bitten last fall by a dog supposed to
have hydrophobia. The COW was
splendid one, and Mr.. P. kept a tight
watch over her for some time, and
no sign Of the horrid disease was APP
parent. For the past few months
she has been used as mich COW for
Mr.. Portwoods family, and on Tues
day of last week she began to show
signs that she was rabid, and Friday
last she died with hydrophobia. Mr..
Portwood has been very uneasy since,
for fear the use of the milk will at

A GENTLE REPROOF,

A hunter once said that though he
could skin a skunk he did not partic-
ularly banker after such work. AS
the hunter grew older he said the
skinning had never paid him any
thing, since both flesh and hide were
worthless and, therefore, becoming
wiser, the old woOdsman learned to
go around skunks rather than to
brain and skin them. So in the
newspaper business it is often better
to pass by scurrilOus and "guerrilla"
squibs in silence than to crafty the
vanity of the little fellow who utters
them by placing him in newspaper
pillory. He glories in being made
conspicuous though he may stand in
the stocks. Don't let any newspaper
man say that this short article is in
tended for him unless the cap exact
ly fits his little head Meri'cether

A COW MIXED BY A SNAKE.
Newark IN. NJ journal.

John Yark, a farmer living on the
Brunswick Pike, eight miles from
Trenton, has been pasturing num-
Der of cows ON lot ON his place for
some time, Recently he noticed that
one of the finest Of them invariably
comes in, in the morning, as dry as
though she had been MIXED. He
was puzzled at this, and, as an ex-
pertinent, changed her to another
pasture. She Immediately began to
give the usual amount of milk. At
ter few days she was returned to the
old pasture with the other COWS, and
at one began to come in dry, as be-
fore,
Finally Mr.. Yark sent a boy to
watch the COW. The mystery was
then quickly solved. The boy re-
ported that early in the morning "a
large snake, "the biggest he had ever
seen" came ard breakfasted from
the cows udder, draining it com
pletely dry. The COW did not seem
to mind the operation. The facts are
vouched for by responsible persons
who have seen the snake taking its
morning meal.

1t was Moody who said "a man
may pull down as much character In
one night as it will take him twenty
years to build up again as good as it
was before" This is truth that
should not be overlooked or disre-
garded even in heated political CON
troversies, as well as in the conduct
of private life. One false or unguard-
ed step often leads to the most fear
full results.

How the whirligig of time changes
men and things. At the close of the
war Parson Brownlow, then Governor
of Tennessee, drove his predecessor,
lsham &. Harris, out OF the country
by offering "a seward af $4,000 for his
capture. A few days ago the same
Harris, now Senator from Tennes-
see, introduced bill for the relief of
the widow of Parson Brownlow, and
heartily supports it.

A recent survey of Rome shows
that there are only about 1000 feet
of levee to be built to exempt all the
business portion of the town from in

about thirty acres of the city under
water during the late freshet. All
Of which goes to show that the entire
city, as many suppose, is not subject
to overflow.

papers OF Southwest Virginia 20 for stand
ing by the Rddeberger settlement. The
same may be said OF those OF the Valley aud
Piedmont sections; and, indeed, there are
but few papers in the State that are OF a
differ rent mind. There is nothing else TO be

propose no abatement OF the principal OF

in an exhibit just published shows that the
debt Of the State is $4,000, 900. She can
never stand that. To attempt to pay it, or
the interest, would crush the vitals out OF
her. When a man can't pay his debts the
right thing for him 10 do is TO say so and
