Caste at Ballston.
From the .AIbnnv E.rpress.

y.
A friend recently told me that he had learned
where they draw JAe dividing line between the
upper and lower crUsts of Ballston society. A
resident of that village was showing him 1.-THE
sights" At the corner of two wooded lanes
was the foundation of house. 1t was a stone
foundation, but grass had be gun to
cover 1t, and it looked as if it were never to
serve it's intended purpose Next to it stood a
pretty cottage. "A barber lives in that house
remarked that Ballstonian, pointing to the cot
tage.
He evidently made it pay" was my friends
comment. .........
And tue man who was going to build there"
continued the Balstonian, pointing to the
abandoned foundation, gave it up as soon as
he heard that tIe barber had bought the lot
next TO him and was going to build there"
And what is the business of the great man
who couldn't bear the thought OF living next
door to harber?" asked the visitor.

The Chattanooga Times does not agree
with the MORNING NEWS that the Rev
Philip Brooks created sensation in Massa-
ehusetts not long ago by coming out against
constitutional prohibition. Speaking of the
Massachusetts, prohibition campaign, it
says: sin point of fact, the clergy there
was nearly equally divided on the issue, the
more learned and liberal ranging them
selves for high license and against prohibi-
ton" Fortunately figures can be given
concerning this matter. During the cam
paign Massachusetts, newspaper obtained
the views of l,025 ministers in that state,
sS4 Of whom favored the adoption of the
amendment, and ninety-one Of whom did
not. Mr.. Brooks was one of the very few
who opposed it openly.

Senator Morgan, of Alabama, has come
out boldly for Mr.. Cleveland for President
in 1892. He says that the country is very
much better for having had four years of
the upright, honest, straightforward and
splendid Cleveland administration and
that while Mr.. Cleveland does not care for
a denomination, he will be put forward
again, unless there is some great revolution
in democratic sentiment.

Some people would get the impression
from the anti-CleVeland newspap ers that
MIR. Cleveland was actively engaged in
button-holing politicians. and trying to
convince them that he ought to be renomi-
naUed in 1892 Such, however, is not the
case. Mr.. Cleveland is quietly and in
dustriously attending to his law business.
He goes to his office at 10 o'clock a. N. 4,
works continuously until l O'Clock p. m,
and after luncheon he puts IN three hours
more of solid work During work hours he
denies himself to visitors who do not cal
upon business. He sees but little of the
politicians, and he doesn't allude TO 1892.

Gen Bussey, the First Assistant Secre-
tary Of the Interior, is the author of another
sensation, not in the form of a pension
decision, but in that of bloody sairt
speech delivered in Baltimore on Federal
Memorial day. The general began very
nicsly-he said it was proper for ex-con-
federates to honor the memory of their
dead; then he launched into one of the most
bitter and most inappropriate speeches
ever delivered upon such an occasion. He
said that il was a crime TO teach the rising
generations of the south that the cause for
which the south fought was a just one;
that southern people should never allude to
the righteousness OF that cause; that there
was as much difference between the cause
of the north and that of the south as be-
tween heaven and hell, aud that the cause
of the south was dishonor; that the south
ern democrats must allow free ballot and
far couut-that if they couldn't control
the colored mans vote, they should join
the colored mans party. Gen. Bussey used
the word scoundrel several times, and when
he made particularly bitter assertion he
was greeted with applause by part of his
audience and with Kisses by another part.
He should go TO New Hampshire and make
speeches for his brother fanatic, ex-senator

A Plan to Prevent River Floods.

DR.. George Paterson, of Waynesboro, has
recently published a pamphlet on 1.-THE Sa-
vannah, Her Destructive Floods, Their
Cause and Speedy Remedy" The subject
is one of vast importance to the citizens of
this section of the state, as the 'overfiows of
the Savannah river have entailed heavy
losses upon them, and will continue to do
so probably, unless a remedy is applied
DR.. Paterson believes that he has discovered
comparatively inexpensive remedy.
1t is for every farmer along the water
shed Of Little river, in Middle Georgia, and
along that of the Savannah in this state
and in South Carolina to terrace his land
wherever it has fall of as much as three
feet. By means of these little levees, as he
calls them, he thinks that the rain water
would be held and absorbed where it fell.
He believes the water which produces the
overnows comes mainly from the water shed
80 or 40 miles above Augusta, and to
prove this he says that at the time of the
freshet of 1888 the river was only three feet
lower at Augusta than during that of 1852,
but at point forty miles above Augusta it
was 1915 feet lower. From this he argues
that seven feet of the water of the 1883
freshet flowed into the river along the ter
ritory forty miles above Augusta.
The plan is very simple one, and may
be worth careful consideration. Aside
from the losses it might prevent, it would
be a good thing for farmers whose lands
border on the rivers named. Every time a
freshet occurs a part of the top soil OF
these lands is washed into the river. Ter
racing might not save all of the soil, but il
wonld save much of it.

The friends and relatives of thelate Capt.
c. Henry WItthous, Of New York, are at a
loss to account for his suicide. On federal
Decoration day, on returning from a parade,
in the uniform Of the Old Guard,
he went to his room before dinner to rest
awhile. When his brother went to call him
to dinner he found him lying upon the
floor, in a pool of blood. dead. He had
shot himself in the head twice, The first
ball only glazed his head; the second was
from larger revolver. and it pierced his
right temple. Capt. Witthous was quite
wealthy, and he was a member Of the Old
Guard, the Press Club, the Liedercranz
Society, the Thirteen Club and other or
CARNATIONS. He was a temperate man, had
no financial embarrassments or domestic
troubles, and the most reasonable conclu-
sion is that he was temporarily insane.
1t goes without saying that the Georgia
editors were warmly received wherever
they went The Georgia editor can AWAY.

The Copper Cent.

A Memphis banker said the other day
that he believed one reason why the north
ern people were better off financially as a
rule than the southern people was because
they used copper cents in their business
transactions.
In other words, the northern people
realize that one cent saved here aud another
saved there will eventually amount to a
considerable sum, and in learning to take
care of the cents they have learned
to take care of the dollars also.
The copper cent is used in many of the larger
cities of the south, but one is hardly ever
seen in the smaller cities and In the towns
and villages The truth is that the south
err people are inclined to be extrava-
CANT. In the ''good old times" about which
we hear so much, they did not fiud it nsces-
sary to save the cents, and the lesson OF
economy has been hard one for them
to learn. 1t has been said, and no doubt
with some truth, that a very good living
could be gotten out of what the southern
people throw away.
The use of coppers is becoming more gen
eral in the south, however, and it is signii-
cant that at the same time the southern
people are becoming more prosperous. The
mere saving of coppers will not bring
wealth, but the economy in both small and
large matters that such a practice encour-
ages is very valuable.
In European countries coins of the value
of half cent are in comnol use, and it is
said that petition will be presented to
congress at the next session to authorize the
coinage of half cents in this country. There
are many people whose profits are made up
of small fractions, aud it is chiefly in their

brightly. But the ground was fear
fully wet; slush and mud were ev-
erywhere; consequently the meeting
was not so large as it would have
been had no rain fallen. Consider
ing the time and the weather it was
a greater success tnan we had antici-
pated, some five or six thousand per-
sons being present,
The sight was a most impressive
one. The dark column of Cleopat.
ra's needle stood out in bold relief
against the moonlight, which was
reflected in the black but peaceful
waters of the Thames. The yellow
light Of the torches cast a weird
glare over the scene, lighting up the
cold, impressive features of the
Sphinx on either side of the Needle,
whilst around these relics of ancient
Egyptian slavery Were clustered the
red flags, svmbolical Of the time
when the world shall be as free from
the wage slavery Of to-day as from
the chattel slavery Of old.
The meeting passed off most en-
Enthusiastically, all the speakers re-
ceiving warm applause. But We
were soon to have practical proof
that the new Chief Commissioner of
Police is about as favorable to So
cialism as his predecessor, the tyran-
meal Warren. When the meeting
was concluded one procession, head
ed by the Banners Of the Padding
ton Branch, $. D. F., went west
ward along the Thames embank-
ment, past the Houses of Parlia-
ment, intending to dispense at Vic
toria Station, the termination of the
London, Brighton and South Coast
Railway. Before reaching Victoria
Station the procession was attacked
by large force of police, without a
word of warning, and literally
broken up by sheer force of numbers
