A Word.

Commissioner Kolb is making great
preparations for his western trip, and
there is but little doubt Of the fact that
nothing but good great good-can come
of it. Alabama needs every immigrant
he will be able to tempt to her borders,
and Alabama ought to be willing TO DO
anything that will aid her commissioner
in this great work he has undertaken.
1t is probable that between now and
the time for his departure in August that
Capt Kolb will need information and
data about the different counties in the
state, and We have already heard it init
mated that new and later history OF
Alabama is contemplated for the occasion
if the design of writing it is under taken
each county in the state ought to respond
promptly to the commissioner appeal
for the information desired.
There is but short time left in which
the thing is to be done, and there will be
no occasion fof delay. Each county will
want to be represented fully, and this
can only be done by each county doing
its part in getting up this work.
Cut these words out and paste them In
your hat for reference, when y0u hear
from the commissioner in regard to the
subject.

On his return to New York Mr..
Gould was promptly interviewed BY a
Tribune reporter anent his trip south and
in speaking of the lines he travelled over
ir. Gould paid the following handsome
compliment to the East Tennessee. Vir.
ginia 4 Georgia system, of which the
Memphis & Charleston forms a part:
The East Tennessee must be in the
hands of good railroad men. Il was like
riding on floor, and part of the wav

miles in forty y-four minutes, without de-
ducting the time of one STOP 1t is a
good road, in excellent condition"
"It was suggested in your absence
that you were trying to secure an inter
est in it," Mr.. Gould smiled, but with.
out intimating that he desired an East
ern outlet from his Southwestern system
simply said: Il was much pleased with
the physical condition of the road which
passed over 1t has been blue wear
for the railroads in the West, but | am
inclined to think that the ebb has pass

"BravO, Yea, Brayissimo!"

Tie Sixth volume Of Alden's
Manifold Cyclopedia extends from
Bravo to CaIville, its 635 nicely prin
ted pages inclunding 120 illustrations
Along with its manifold number Of
words and topics treated briefly,
there are many extended articles, as
for instance, Brazil seven pages;
Breach loading Guns, eleven pages;
British Museum, ten pages; Brookly,
five pages; Buddhism, fifteen pages;
and California, sixteen pages The
Cyclopedia well deserves the 'enthu-
siastic commendation it is receiving
from all sides; it is certainly THE
Cyclopedia for popular use. Rev
DIR. Wright of Milwaukee evidently
voices the thought Of many when he
says; Il may in all truth and sober
ness quote its first word as expires
sive of my sentiments iD regard to
your wonderful work, its comprehen-
hensiveness, its cheapness, &c Bra
vo. yea, Bravissimol.' Its small han
dy volume, contrasting 50 greatyl
with the usual bulky, unwieldy vol
umes adopted by publishers Of Cy-
clopedias. is very pleasant charac-
teristic, and undoubtedly adds great
lv to the usefulness Of the work, as
stated by DR. Hasty of Indianapolis,
who says: Il have the Americ u
Cyclopedia, but reterance is made t..
the Manifold 50 far as / have it, ten
times to once to the former. 1t is a
marvel Of compactness and com
pletness. The publisher sends spec
linen pages free to any app icant, or
specimen volumes which may be re-
turned if not wanted, for so cents for
cloth binding, 75 cents f-r half Mo
rocco, postpaid; the better binding
is particularly commended. JOHN

Three Emperors inaThree Months

n. y. Herald
Germany has had three Emperori
within about one hundred days The
bells tolled at the death Of the aged Will
lam in March, and their dull echo had
hardly died away when they were tolleC
a second time for Frederick.
The career of William |. was like ro.
nance His earliest recollections were
of bloodshead-an unequal struggle be-
tween Prussia and Napoleon, flight, de
feat, despair, an empty treasury and a
crushing debt imposed by the victor. He
had old fashioned, obsolete ideas abou,
the divine right of kings, was convinced
that his crown was the gift of the AL
mity and that he was responsible to the
Almity rather than to the people for bis
use OF authority. Brave enough to ex-
cite the unbounded enthusiasm of the
not wise enough to see that the drift OF
modern times is in the direction Germans
of the masses, he was never in close
touch withtthem, and chafed against and
resisted their demands as unwarrented
encroachmentS.
Frederick, his son, on the other hand,
seemed made in different mould To
him the populace was worth consider
dllOu, anu LIS lOM RuOllS dIto WCIC q
prophecy that had he lived Germany
would have been industrially prosperous
her energies bent toward the victories
of peace rather than the glorl9s OF war.
He had the Hohenzollern obstinacy, not
to be overcome either by the diplomacy
or the threats of Bismarck, and certain
clear convictions as to public policy
which promised to make his reign mem
orable as that ola generous ruler, not
that OF soldier Under his regime
Europe would have had no war if it
could be aversed with honor Commerce
would have received a new impulse,
wealth increased mills and manufac
tories multiplied and legislative concess-
ions been made to a people who have
become restive under imperial restric-
tions.
With William | |, not yet thirty years
old, it is too early to predict the future.
He is every inch soldier, with the fire
of youth and ambition in his veins,
| naughty, autHcratiC and anxious to make
career, Not even .Bismarck's admoni
| tions suffice to restrain him, and the
opportunity which Europe Just now
presents to such man with well equip
ped army behind him is a serious temp
tation. Complications may be avoided
| by tact or increased by the lack Of it.
| The Iron Chancellor has his confidence,
and the shrewd and foxy old diplomat
may pilot his disciple over the rough
spots with safety. But the Hohenzollern
nature is hot, its impatience when curb
ed is proverbial, and its dogged deter
minatlon is only equalled by its cours
age.
The signs Of the times during the next
few months will be watched with interest
by every nation on the Continent.

THE following from the news
columns Of the Chattanooga Times
tell Of some very cranky doings of
two mischievous cranks one white
and one coiored over at Soddv,
Tenn
Ten days ago A. J. Brown, color
ed, emerged from the woods above
Soddy after having, as he claimed,
tasted forty days and nights. G.,
W. Patterson, white man, who was
in with Brown, had large crowd
gathered to await the appearance Of
Brown, and when he saw him emerg-
ing from the woods half naked an
nounced that he was the real Christ,
and many of the ignorant people
assembled bowed before him and
kissed his hands and begged to be
allowed to touch the hem Of his gar
ments. The excitement ran so high
at the meetings which followed that
Sheriff Conner was appealed to for
the purpose of mob violence wore
frequent. The sheriff went to Soddy
and after consulting with some of the
colored heads, succeeded in putting
an end to the meetings and for a
week past the excitement.
HAD ABOUT DIED OUT.
Word reached the city yesterday
that there was great excitement
again. Brown had a large number
of hand bills struck, announcing that
he was not onle the true Christ, but
that he would be crucifed to-day to
atone for the sins of the whole world.
These bills were posted up all over
the town and naturally caused much
curiosity. What will be the result
of the announcement remains to be
seen. In the bills Brown does not
state whether he will be cruciied by
his friends or his enemies, but he
claims that he will meet his death on
the cross.
