healthier than ever before. The children are
contented, they, like their teachers and EN-

\ Remark able Case.

ValGosta, Ga. Times.
DIR. Burton reports remarkable case
of a negro at or near WitherS, in EchoIs
county, who was shot, one day last week, +,
through the brain by another negI o.
When he was shot down his friends cx-
pected him to die any minute, but he
lived from Thursday until Saturday, and
did not care to go to bed. DR.. Burton
went TO see him Sunday. When he rap
ped at the door the negro got up and
opened the door for him to enter. He
examined the wound, and found that
the ball had positively gone through the
brain.
The negro WAS very much liked by his
employer, and when that gentleman
was assured by the doctor that there
was scarcely any hopo for the mans life,
he told tho negro that he must look to a
higher source for help. The negro said
he didn't want any help except some
resting powders'-that lie would get
well if they would give him something
to make him sleep better.
DR.. Burton heard Friday that the man
was still up and walking about, but that
his symptoms were not SO good as when
he saw him last Sunday.

What the Blizzard Proved.

Philadelphia Times, Ind
The late blizzard has served the pur-
pose of giving employment to good
many liars. The Florida orange groves
were killed off at first so thoroughly as
to leave no hope for oranges in future.
Ii now turns out that the Florida orange
groves are all right and will produce
Oranges the coming year as usual. The
Delaware peach crop is now asserted to
be killed past all hope of resurrection
aud the farmers are TO turn their atten-
ton to a cabbages and potatoes as tn e
only means Of keeping the wolf from
the door. 1t is probable that another
week or two will develop the fact that
the peaches are all right and then the
cranberry bogs will be given over to de-
struction. Ifa wave cold enough TO
freeze the sensational crop liars to death
could be induced to sweep over the
country the public would be likely to see
some good in cold waves.

George ID. Prentice and Capt. VAN
derbiIt.


VI. s. Dyer, of Canton Comm, in a let
to the Louisville Courier-Journal, gives
an account Of a short but interesting in
tervisw between George d. Prentice and
a member of the Vanderbilt family. He
says that when Prentice was publishing
the Weekly Review at Hartford, Com.
Vanderbilt put the steamer Lexington on
the route from New York to Hartford,
and John Vanderbilt was the captain.
He was Of an over-bearing disposition,
and soon became unpopular. Mr.. Prem
tice published some remarks upon his
conduct which exasperated him, and he
went to the office of the Review for the
purpose of giving Prentice thra.hing.
The office was in the third story of the
building, the stairs running straight
from the street door. Vanderbilt made
his business known, and in about two
minutes found himself lying on the side
walk in front of the door. He picked
himself up and went back TO his boat,
swearing vengsnce aginst Prentice. In
tho next issue of the Review Prentice
published card to Vanderbilt, telling
him that he could try again if he wished,
but he wanted t. have him understand
that he weighed Is stone. used both
pair OF fists like the halyard blocks of an
East Indian schooner. Captain John did
not call
