RICH AND POOR

Making living is the matter that
engages the anxious thought of all
classes of our people. There is a
great difference between living and
a good living. The rich can afford
to live well, the poor cannot. The
rich ought to spend their money free
ly-the poor ought to use economy.
A misery spirit with disposition to
hoard money on the part of the rich
is as disastrous to the good of man
kind as it is for the poorto live above
their means. The poor we havewith
us always. What they want is en-
ployment that holds out fair prom
Use OF competency. An idle brain is
the Devils workshop. Whenever
the Devil finds fellow out of lob
he straightway gives him employ
ment. When God has blessed a
man with capital or credit he should
use 1t to carry on some kind of in
dustry that will furnish an honest
living to those whoneed employment.
A desire to enjoy the Injuries of
life, and the spending Of money be-
fore it is earned is what keeps poor
people in hot water. They should
not try to ape or envy the rich, for
after all the compensations of Provi-
dence are not so unequal as they
imagine. 1t is not 50 much what
mans surroundings are as the spirit
that abides within that brings happi-
ness. \ patient submission to the
will OF God brings the only real joy
and 1t, perhaps, is oftener found with
the poor than the rich. In true
Christianity is found the resolution
Of labor troubles and financial en-
barassment

GEN. GORDON,

Col. l. W. Avery, editor of the At
lanta Capitol says;
The editor OF this paper knows
the facts connected with the resigna-
ton of General Gordon as United
States Senator and the appointment
by Governor Colquitt of ex-Gover-
nor Brown as Senator in his place.
At the time it was charged that
the whole matter MAS one Of arrange
ment between these gentlemen for
private interest. They promptly de-
MED it. The charge was pressed
vigorously. The people have four
times overwhelmingly declared the
accusation false, by two elections of
Brown as Senator, the latter almost
unanimous, and by Governor Col
quit reelection as Governor, and
his election as United States Sena-
tor. These tests would seem to be
decisive in the matter.
General Gordon's candidacy for
Governor has revived the dead scan
dial.
There never was less basis for a
charge. The editor of the Capitol
was at the time of the resignation
and appointment Secretary of the
Executive Department under Gov.
Colquitt and knew every step Of the
transaction. lie knows two f,c.s
that utterly negative the idea Of a
bargain
l. Gov. Colquitt was opposed to
Gen. Gordon's resignation, and tried
to get him 10 withdraw it.
,. Gen. dordon was opposed to the
appointment of Gov Brown.
The resignation and appointment
were entirely disconnected and indie
pendent Of each other
Tna wtlrer states these facts in the
interest Of truth"

THE 18th CENTURY.

EDS. JouRNAL-ln the journal of
Dec. 9TH, 1855, u writer asked the
school boy readers to tell when the
18th century began and when it will
end, but none Of them have spoken
up yet, the supposition being that it
escaped their notice, or more proba-
Bile, that they regarded the matter
too simple thing to arrest their at
tention. Well, it does seem a very
simple thing but nevertheless is Of
some Importance. We are aware
that there is difference Of opinions
not only among school boys but many
older persons with regard to the time
of beginning and ending of the 10Th
century. Some inventive genius
perhaps might bring ou a wonderful
invention or some very great event
transpire during the year 1900 and
might possibly be put down as the
eVentful things in wrong century.
The editor Of the metropolitan" of
New York city in an article in that
paper regards new years day 1900 as
the first day of the Goth century. 1t
seems to US that he is trying to cross
the "creek before he gets TO it," If
we run the centuries back according
to his views we find that to get 100
years in each the first century would
have begun Jan. LIST, year 0, one
year B. G. We say that the 10Th
century began Jan. LIST, 1901 and will
close Dec. 3lst, 1900, and with Jan.
LIST, 1901 will begin the Doth century.
So any invention brought out during
the year 1900 is properly an inven-
ton OF the 10Th century but accord
ing to the editor OF the Metropolitan
1t would be al invention Of 10Th cen
tury. 70 demonstrate our idea put
down the dates as follows;
LIST Century began Jan. lst, year /,
closed Dec, 81, year 100. Run this
parallel down and it will be seen that
the 18th Century began Jan. LIST,
year 1901, and will close Dec. 81,
year 1900. Respectfully,
JOSEPH b. Moon,

DON'T GIVE Up.

Life is a hard battle. From the
cradle to the grave it is struggle.
Man was not created, it seems, for a
bed Of roses; roses bloom by seasons
force them and they lose that charm
which too open air gives them. SO
with our lives. We cannot bear too
many strains; it handicaps our ener-
gles and gives us feeling of lassi-
tude. BE bold, earnest, hopeful
fearless in doing the right. The
weakness of man shows itself in Civ
ing way to disappointment. Don t
do that. Live for something higher.
nobler than tagging by the wayside.
Tears never won victory; if you
weep, let it be for JOY when you have
won the fight There is no trial too
great for human endurance. God
has made man so high, so strong, so
perfect, that his strength is as terri
bic as the whirlwind. Keep yourself
high and strong and perfect; live ever
on the buoyant things of lite, look
disappointment in the face and smile.
Life is too sweet tie be fretted away
over the embers Of despair. The
hopeless man is contemplate.

Henry G. Bunce has for several
years past thrown thousands Of bush
els Of tin cans, hoop skirts, branches
of trees, and other rubbish on his
oyster grounds at Cold Spring har-
Dor, New York. He now finds a
splendid set Of oysters on these odd
receptacles The theory Of Mr..
Bunce is that the spawn floats along
about a foot or more from the bottom,
and is more readily collected by the
boughs and other articles. The boughs
will rot down in time, aud the large
oysters will find secure resting
place on the bottom.

Aeronout Wells, of indianapolis,
says that ne once made an ascent
from Buenos Ayers, and while far
above La Plata river saw the sun set.
Soon after the wind ceased and the
balloon went down to the water. He
threw out all ballast, and then, sit
ting in the hoop, cut away the car.
At this the balloon shot up to such
height that the sun, which had set
hours before to the persons below
him, AGAIN appeared. The effect
was as if the sun was rising in the
west.

EARTH IN THE STABLE.

Nothing will purify and keep a
stable so free from odors as the free
use OF dry earth, and every one keep
ing horses or cattle will find it pays
to keep heap OF it at hand, to be
used daily. A few shoyelfuls Of
earth scattered over the floor after
cleaning will render the air Of the
apartments pure AID wholesome.
The value Of the seasons manure pile
may be largely increased by the free
use Of such absorbents. The strength
Of the gasses and liquids absorbed is
retained, and is the very essence of
good manure. .Seienhhe Ame,fcaA.

Of cases, and have never known it to

it would be well to take at the same
time a good dose of whisky and also
call in doctor as soon as possible.
We presume the remedy would be
good for the bite Of any other kind Of
snake.

CARP MATCHED IN FOUR DAYS.

Mr.. llenning Murden, Of Taliafer-
ro county, has carp pond, and watch
es THEM habits closely. On Tuesday
he put pine and cedar brush in his
pond, and on Wednesday evening no.
ticed that the fish were spawning on
them. On Sunday afternoon f6llow-
ing he broke off a small limb which was
covered with eggs and carried it to
his house to place il in a glass jar, so
as 10 have lew pet fish. In little
while after the jar was filled with wa
ter his daughter noticed that one Of
the eggs was Matching, and in short
time the little fish were bursting out
in every direction. Within 30 min
utes every egg on the limb was
Matched.
As fast as the fish were released
from their prison houses they sank
10 the bottom OF the jar, ana remain
ed ten or fifteen minutes, apparently
to rest and get strength, after which
they would rise to the top. and com
mence thew lie al swimming.
This experiment shows that the
carp eggs hatch in four days, and
that when they commence the pro-
cess is almost simultaneous. Mr..
Murden related the facts to the wri-
ter himself. lie says that he has
made great success in his fish pond,
and is satisfied that the carp is the
fish for his country JVasdipqfoo

David Van Dyke, of Mason, Ohio,
70 years old, owns house and lot,
and that's all and owes large debt
contracted by going security tor a
friend. As long as Mrs. Van Dyke
lived the house and lot could not be
attached for the debt, under the
Homestead Exemption law, But
Mrs. Van Dyke died a short time
ago, and suit was at once brought
against the widower and the Sheriff
advertised the property for sale. I'm
der the law Van Dyke could not now
claim a homestead, as his wife had
died, and he had no minor children
or unmarried daughter living with
him. The ON " way Of escape was to
marry again, he thought, and so he
went to Cincinnati and called on
several women before he found one
to suit him. At last he hit on Mis-.
May Jones, who was willing, anC
they were married the 9th of las
month. That was few days before
the day fixed for the sale, and til,
proceedings in execution were stop
ped at once. The case was then ar
gued in tho Common Pleas Cour
aud the Judge has just decided tina
it was not necessary that Van Dyk,
should have been a married man a
the time Of the levy on the property
but that it was sufficient to entiti,
him to have the homestead exemp
ton by becoming the head of fami

An extensive industry has arisen
in France to supply an artificial sub
stitute for natural ivory in view of
the growing insutfciency OF the lat
ter to meet the demands of art and
industry. The majority of the pro-
ducts formerly employed were OBJ
tanned by injecting wildwood with
chloride Of lime under strong pres
sure. At the Amsterdam Exhibi-
ton, however, almost all the products
had been prepared with the bones of
sheep and waste pieces of deer and
kid skins. The bones are for this
purpose macerated and bleached for
two weeks in chloride of lime, then
heated by steam along with the skin,
so as to form fluid mass, to which
are added a few hundredths Of alum;
the mass is then filtered, dried in the
air, and allowed to harden in bath
of alum, the result being white tough
plates, which are more easily worked
than natural ivory.

Reports from the spring-wheat
States are highly favorable as to the
seeding and condition of the crop
Large portions of the area in each
State have been seeded, and the
work will be finished under the most
favorable auspices. Nebraska, per-
haps, may be deemed an exception
40 this general remark, wet weather
having interferred with the design to
SOW wheat, and led to putting in flax
and oats In the Western and North
western States generally, the winter
wheat is not looking well, but re-
ports from Indiana and Ohio are
highly favorable while good yield
in Tennessee and Kentucky is well
assured. At least So per cent. of an
average crop in these States may be
counted upon. 1t is a good sign, al
so, that the price of American wheat
is on the rise, and an assurance of
"better times after harvest" may be
pronounced.
