SPARTA, Ca, Sept. %, 1856
To the Constitution, Atlanta-Were l
to practice deception in case like
this, | would think that my heart had
become scared beyond recognition.
To be guilty Of bearing false testi>
mony, thereby imperiling the lives of
my fellow-men, would place me he
meath the dignity Of a gentleman.
The facts which l disclose are en-
dorsed and vouched for by the COM
muuity in which | live, and | trust
they may exert the influence intended.
For twenty long years have suf
fered untold tortures from terrible
pain and weakness in the small of my
back, which resisted all modes and
and manner of treatment.
For long time the horrifying
pangs of an eating cancer of my lower
lip has added to my misery and suf
fering. This encroaching, burning
and painful sore on my lip was pro-
nounced epithelial cancer by the
prominent physicians in this section,
which stubbornly resisted the best
medical talent. About Is months
ago a cutting, piercing pain located in
my breast, which could not be allayed
by the use of ordinary modes of treat.
ment.
These suferings of misery and pros
tration became so great that, on the
18th of last July, a leading physician
said that could not live longer than
four days, and l had about given "
in despair. The burning and excru
ciatins ravages of the cancer, the pain
full condition of my back and breast
and the rapid prostratiOn of my whole
system combined to make me a mer,
wreck of former manhood.
While thus seeming suspended OF
a thread between life and death,
commenced the use of B. B. B., tn
grandest blood medicine, to me anC
my household, ever used.
The effect was wonderful-it wa:
magical. The excruciating pain
which had tormented by day and BY
night for twenty years were soon helC

WASHINGTON LETTER.

Washington D. O., June IS, 1ss6
 You may be inclined to think that with the len8thening days and streugthening heat of summer times are growing dull at the capital as elsewhere. Such is not the case Grand receptions, official and pub llc, are being held at the white hotlss' ilt honor of the bride. Some distinguished travellers are in the city, who are receiving much attention ;--one of them being ii royal visitor, veritable prince, the grand son of Emperor Dom Pedro, of Brazil Prince Leopold Is not, however, royal looking parsonage. His face is of an un- interesting type, his figure of medium size, and his voice is so effemiDate, small, shrllt and discordant as to occasion amuse- ment for those who hear if. He Is stop ping at the Arlington Hotel, and occupies the rooms that President Cleveland had when he first arrived in the city previous to his inauguration
 And then the strike is at last over here. Work has been resumed on g nine hours compromise. Houses partially erected, on which work has been suspend d for six weeks, again echo with the sound of hammer and saw. And last, though first m importance, congress is still at work, without any immediate danger of sue cnmblng to the summers heat. It is dis
 
 bills and questions relating to the District of Columbia. Scarcely day passes but some congressman gives his opinion of the civil service law, and no subject connected with finances can come up for debate without provoking fight on the tariff While the house was discussing money bill, the able republican leader from New York, Mir. Hiscock, announced that he had figured out large deficiency ID the treasury, the appropriations being largely in excess of the receipts. He made an ar gument, which might apply to the tariff, 10 show that no reduction was possible, and he held democratic extravaganza re- sponsible for this. He explained where the next fiscal year would, on the, most conservative estimate, see deficit of $l4,- IOOO, 1000. The house was on the eve of an attempt to reduce tariff taxes, and he thought 1t was an occasion on which to call its attention to these startling figures.
 Political affairs are so much mixed in different states that members of congress who have not already gotten the sanction of their districts and yet have not given up the fight, are very anxious about renomi- nation. Even MT. Holman, of Indiana, the "great objector," has felt constrained to go home iu the interest of his fences, He is a man who probably could not be easily beaten, but the republicans are sure of gains in many democratic districts, and MT.

Secretary Russell, of the Mass. Board
 of Agriculture, made a good impression on
 his auditors at Mansfield. This may have been partly because of his liberal praise of Connecticut and its methods. He also said that no state did so much to make the profession of agriculture honorable. And this is true. He compared our modestly
 named farm school with the pretentious institution bearing the name of college in his own state, to the great advantage of the former. Its class of graduates was ex- ceptionally large, and the nature of the methods of tuition were so apparent as to compel favorable criticism. Particularly he mentioned the interest shown by the large attendance This, too, was well de- served. The crowd evidently came from pure interest, and attended to business strictly. Every essayist and speaker got full attention from beginning to end, and no brass band or other music was needed to entertain them farther. It was lit erary treat, solely, enjoyed by all as such.

Students at Storr's Farm school get better ideas of the profession for which they are supposed to be educating them selves, from the months spent beside the model farm of Augustus Storrs, the found er of the school. Little more than a stone's throw from their temporary home, stand the handsome, we'll kept farm build ings of this gentleman, source of pride to the town. His fertile fields join the school farm on every side, and the best blooded stock and the best appointments for successful farming are ever before them, with fullest opportunity for inspec- tion, making thus a valuable adjunct to the school farm.

Gen. Woodford, in his address at Storrs' school anniversary in Mansfield, suggested startling thought, based on the fact that next to cases resulting from the use of intoxicants our lunatic .asylums get their greatest number of patients from the class of farmers wives and daughters, and he gave the obvious reason of the ter rible treadmill mopotony of the lives going daily over the same round of tasks within the same four walls. He urged that they vary these tasks with light outdoor work, and said that the culture of small fruits farm snd early o6gG vegetables 6s ms5a r the It was defect of our agricultural school that they made no provision for the farm ers girls.
The Press., 1886-06-24

The trustees of Storrs' school are a wide awake lot and have made the most of their opportunities, and in the face of un- parently growing out of jealousy of ioca- tion chiefly, have so conducted the school as to already give it a reputation outside of the state. Much of this is due to ju- dicious selection of instructors to be sure, but this is not all. They (the trustees) are class of men whose recommendation carries weight. It is much to the credit of Trustee Hubbard of Middletown that SO large 8 proportion of students from his section of the state each year appear in the catalogue. MT. Hubbard is practical, common sense man. He believes in the school and his neighbors believe in, him. With no disparagement to his colleagues, we may say that every friend of Storrs' school may well hope most earnestly for long continuance of Trustee Hubbards connection with it.

4 PICNIC PROPHECY.

 The picnic season now is here, & And the paragraphist 2"' Must furnish up with new veneer
 The jests we long have missed. The young man in the new light pants Will crush the blithe squash pie The sandwiches alive with ants
 Will make the children cry. Fond lovers ill the forest glade,
 Their eager love will tell, When all at once the timid mad ,t. Will see snake and yell. . .. The man who swings the pretty girls Will make his shoulders lame; The dude who tries to row boat
 Will wonder why he came. The thunder storm that ends the fun Will crash down prompt at four; With started shrieks the girls will run And drabbled skirts deplore. Oh, yes, the picnic seasons here,
 And the paragraphist Will do his duty, never fear
 And yet, he'd not be missed. ........ sg . -SoD1eTuilie Journal.

-The opportunity offered to poor lad at Storrs' school was illustrated in the case of a graduate whose essay last Friday showed high degree of intelligence and thought, and who, friendIess and alone, worked his way through the two years course. The school is for the poor as well as the rich. The ample farm gives oppor- tunity for we'll requited student labor out side of the regular class work in tillage, aud from this labor comes a double recom- pense, as under the intelligent direction it is educating, and increases the opportunity for practical culture. The school is a boon to the poor lad, and none the less on that account profitable school to the stu dent of greater means.
