NOT. AN ADVENTIST TOOK WINGS.
The Faithful Who Expected to Fly to
Heaven Still Remain in Jersey.

NEW YORK, October S.-The followers
of the Advent faith in Eatontown, N. j.,
looked very melancholy yesterdayas they
wandered aimlesslv about the streets OF
the pretty village. They were sad for
the singular reason that they were still
on earth and not reduced to cinders
preparatory to life immortal.
Some one had said that the world was
| to 90 up in flame October 7th, and, as
every orthodox believer of the Advent
faith is quite positive that this sort of
thing is likely to happen at any time,
the Eatontown Adventist got ready to
fly skward yesterday at a moments no
tice. Gabriel failed to blow his trumpet,
and the truthful historian must record
the lamentable fact that not q single
Adventist attempted to put at defiance
the well established law of gravitation.
In speaking of the evident failure of
the world to be consumed by fire accord
ing 10 the Adventist scheduled time the
Rev. Ezck Wolcott cautioned his breth-
rem not to he discouraged, for" said
he, "the day for blasting the wicked
and the crowning of the uprighteous is
not far off," Mr.. Wolcott said he would
not attempt to give the day or the hour
when the final destruction of all things
earthly would be brought about, but he
was certain that the time for such con-
summation was near at hand.

KING COTTON.
CONDITION OF OUR GREAT STAPLE
ON CROP OCTOBER /.
The Plant Generally Late and Fears En-
tertained that Frost May Seriously
Shorten the Crop But at All Events, a
LARGE Crop Will be Gathered.

WAsHINGToN, October 1o.-Cotton re-
turns of the Isl of October to The De-
partment of Agriculture show a large
plant growth, active opening of bolls,
fibre in good condition, and generally
fine weather for picking; yet the plant
is everywhere reported late and fears
are expressed that frost may seriously
shorten The crops. Conditions are natu-
rally reported high, with the reservation
by the most intelligent correspondents
that present favorable appearances are
deceptive; that in seasons of excessive
moisture the outcome falls below ex-
pectation, while in those of drought the
result is better than was feared.
With the early date of killing frost the
present condition will be heavily dis
counted; with the date later than the
average large crop will be gathered.
The crop has been injured more by
moisture than by drought, though some
soils and localities have been too dry in
September.
Worms have wrought considerable in
jury, Notwithstanding the general use
of insecticides, especially in part of Ala
bama. Complaint of adulteratlon of
paris green is made in certain quarters.
The following State percentages is pre-
sented: Virginia So, North Carolina
72, South Carolina 81, Georgia 81, Ala
bama 81, Florida ss, Mississippi 10,
Louisiana SO, Texas 7s, Arkansas s3,
Tennessee 80. This makes, as good
percentage, s1'4 per cent. of field crop
prospect on the 1st of October, COM
pared with 7S.9 per cent. last October.

THE NEGRO QUESTION.
Foolish Utterances Of Conference OF
Colored Men Of Illinois.

SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, October .9.-The
State Conference of colored men adj
journed last evening, after issuing an
address to the colored people of the State
and the Nation, which sets forth the
object of the organization just effected
to be to advance educational interests,
the abolishment of separate schools,
and to secure employment of competent
colored teachers. After reviewing the
condition of the negroes in the South,
the outrages to which they are subjected
and the fact that it is not a party, race
or State question, but one of national
importance. the League makes the fol-
lowing appeal:
"We appeal to the American people, to
Congress and to the Executive head of
our government, to men of all parties,
to rise above partisan hate and bitter
prejudice and bring 10 bear the majesty
of the law, to the end that the life and
property of the American negro may be
as safe in Louisiana, Mississippi, South
Carolina, Georgia and Texas as in tho
Northern States.''
The address also calls attention to the
fact of the opening of the new States in
the Northwest, and advises the colored
people of the South to secure homes
there, as one step toward overcoming
the Southern question

MAHoNE'S NOVEL TACTICS.
| Night Forest Meetings in His Interest.
Plenty Of Money to Buy Voters.

RICHMOND, October o. Ex-Congress-
man Richmond Of Lee County, leading
Democrat, passed through the city. He
says the Democrats in that large section
arc without organization, while Malone
has perfected a strong working force.
This consists of what arc called might
forest meetings, 'lhc membership of each
forest clan being limited to fifteen. Eaca
precinct is divided into forest clans. and
they meet in no house, but at night in
the woods. They have no chairman or
head, and there is no speechmaking,
but they simply talk over the situation
and discuss plans for winning over in
dividual voters. The Southwest is thor
oughly worked up in this way in the in
terest of Malone.
The intelligence has alarmed the DEM
ocraric leaders and il means a rapid
hurrying of forces into that section. 1t
is asserted that Mahone has liberal
money supply. Each member of these
forest meeting clans has certain sum
entered against his name, and he will be
paid off the night after the election.

the small farmers in thaSectiOf. Floods
and rains almost entirely devastated
their crops and they are without ready
money.
1t IS alleged that under this system
1000 votes are contracted for at $5
each. With this and his certain negro
majorities he calculates on overcoming
the Democratic strength by at least l,5OO
majority.
In Richpond tonight an entire work
ingmen's Republican club, with but two
dissenting voices, decided to work against
Malone and vote for Mckinney, the
Democratic nominee. 1t is evident that
Malone will put no more stumpers in
the field. His former able stumpers are
now with the kickers.
So much indignation was aroused by
Quay's proposed visit to Virginia that it
has been decided he had better remain
away. He has, however, sent several
confidential messengers to Malone and
is aiding him with all his ability.

Cure for Snake Bite.

On last Thursday afternoon Mary
Emily, the 14-year-old daughter of Mr..
James A. Hogue, who lives near Carp,
in this County, was in the field picking
cotton, when she was bitten on toe by
a pilot snake. She Immediately went to
the house and became very sick. A
messenger was dispatched for DR.. S. A.
Smith of Glover, and in the meantime
remedies were administered by the
child's parents, but without atfording
relief. 1t was several hours before the
physician arrived, but when he came he
administered so simple remedy, which
was so efficacious withal, that we print
it as a matter of useful information.
He simply had the child to drink a solu-
tion of two teaspoonfuls of bi-carbonate
of soda in water, and bathed the wound
with the same solution. Within fifteen
minutes after the treatment the patient
was relieved of all pain and is dong

Exporting Whislsey to Escape Taxation

Some time ago the Collector of Gus
toms at New York wrote to the Commits
sioner of Internal Revenue in regard to
certain twenty-five barrels of American
whiskey exported to Hamburg and sub
sequently returned. The whiskey was
produced between the Sth and 18th Of
January, 1886, and was withdrawn for
export January 30, 1889. The collector
gave it as his opinion that the exporla-
ton and reimportation of these goods
within short period of time, tending
to result in the escape from the payment
of an overdue internal revenue tax by u
temporary deposit abroad, furnishes
prcsumpGve evidence to indicate an
original intention of the persons inter,
ested in the shipment to return the
whiskey TO the United States. The Com.
missioner of Internal Revenue reported
the case to the Secretary of the Trea.
sury, with a recommendation that the
spirits in question be not admitted tC
entry under Section $500, Revised Stat
utes, but that they be treated as subject
to internal revenue tax. The Secretary
approved this recommendation, and
authorized the collector at New York tC
take the steps prescribed by Article 100
of the internal revenue regulations, fol
the delivery of the goods to the collector
of internal revenue for the second dis
trIct of New York.

Rarrels Made of Cotton.

promised by patent which has been
granted for the making of barrels out

weighs to the barrel about fifteen pounds
less than the wood, and can be manu-
featured ten per cent. cheaper. The
cotton duck barrels can be rolled up

mills for frequent use. The barrels can
thus be returned as solid goods and thus
save space. The -four merchants OF

q. Allie Fully Exposed at Last.

The malicious story that has so long.
been kept in circulation at the North
about Jefferson Davis being dressed in
woman's apparel when he was captured
by the Federal forces is at last set to
rest by the statement of Mr.. I. H. Pea
body, one of his captors. MIR. Peabody
is lawyer OF st. Louis, and it is said
was the first man to address Mr.. Davis
in making the arrest. At the regular
meeting of Ransom Post G. A. r. in st.
Louis, on Tuesday night, Mr.. Peabody
made speech, in which, after relating
other interesting incidents of the war,
he said:
Jefferson Davis was captured by the
Fourth Michigan cavalry, in the early
morning of May 10, 1865, at Irwinsville,
in Southern Georgia. With him were
Mr.. Reagan of Texas, Ills postmaster
general Captain Moody of Mississippi,
an old neighbor of the Davis family;
Governor Lubbock of Texas; Colonies
Harrison and johnson of his staff; Mrs.
Davis and her four children-Maggie,
some ten. years old, JEFF, about eight,
Willie, about five, and girl baby-a
brother and sister of Mrs. Davis, a
white and one colored servant woman, a
small force of cavalry, few others and
a small train of horses, mules, wagons
and ambulances. Among the horses
were span of carriage horses presented
to Mrs. Davis by the citizens of Rich
mond during the heyday of the Confed-
eracy; also splendid saddle horse, the
pride of the eX.P President himself. On the
18th of May, the day after the capture,
and while on our way back to Macon, as
officer of the guard over the distin-
guished prisoner, | rode by the side of
Mr.. Reagan, now Senator FROM Texas. l
found him very fine gentleman. During
that days march courier from Macon
notified us in printed slips Of the 100000
reward offered for Mr.. Davis's capture,
which notice connected Davis with the
assassination of President Lincoln.
When Mr.. Reagan read the notice he
earnestly protested that Mr.. Davis had
no connection whatever with the sor'
rowful affair. History has shown he
had none.
Besides the suit of mems clothing
worn by Mr.. Davis, he had on, when
captured, Mrs. Davis's large waterproof
dress or robe, thrown on over his own
fine gray suit, and blanket shawl
thrown on over his head and shoulders.
This shawl and robe were finally de-
posted in the archives Of rhe War De.
partment at Washington by ordsr OF
Secretary Stanton. The story of the
"hoop skirt, sun bonnet and calico
wrapper" had no real existence, and
was started in the fertile brain of the
reporters and in the illustrated papers
of that day.

ACQUISITION FOR THE COUNCIL.
Two Conversational Bodies Of Georgia
Will Ask for Recognition.


Will Ask for RECOGNITION.
BosreN, October 6.-The National
Council of the Congregational Church
of the country will begin its triennial
session in Worcester on Wednesday next.
One Of the most important questions
which will come before it is the race
issue, which will be presented from
Georgia. The Georgia Congregat tional
Association has been recognized as the
Congregational body of the State.
This association is composed of fifteen
small churches of colored people, which
are under the care Of the American
Missionary Association. The Congre-
gational Methodist Conference, an older
body than the Georgia Congregational
Association, is desirous of recognized
relations with the Congregational
churches of the country, and has elected
delegates who will come to Worcester
and apply for admission 70 the Ma
tional Council. The churches of tho
Conference are white. The question of
the council to settle is whether it shall
recognize two distinct bodies of Congrc
galiona churches within the limits OF
one State when the only reason for the
existence of two bodies is the fact that
they are composed of people Of differ
cnt races.

ACoNVERT TO BUDDHISM.
Ceremonies of Receiving AL American
Into the Goddess Church.

Recent Ceylon papers cOnta II ac-
counts of remarkable ceremony which
took place recently in Colombo. This
was the reception of gentleman from
America. who lately arrived in Ccylon,
into the Buddhist creed.
The proceedings took place under the
direction of the Buddhist high priest,
assisted by eleven yellow robed monks.
The convert knct before the assembled
priests and intimated bis desire to be ad-
mittcd a member of the Buddhist
Church. The high priest then cate
chised him and The assembled monks
satisfied themselves that he was fitted to
be a follower of Buddha. The gentle
man, whose name was Powell, then
begged of the high priest to give him
the Pansil, which the latter did, the
candidate repeating it after him with
the palms of the hands brought together
uplifted. Having explained to the con-
vert the responsible duties Of a Buddhist,
the high priest gave him his blessing.
A meeting was afterward held, at which
Mr.. Powell explained his reasons, for
having embraced Buddhism, and de-
scribed the mental process which he had
gone through before he arrived at the
conviction of its truth.
1t appears that nearly forty years ago,
when he was child, he came across a
book in his fathers library, in which
was a picture. 1t was the figure Of
Buddha seated in the conventional atti-
tude on a lotus. Impressed by the ex-
preston of peace and love on the face,
Mr.. Powell got into the habit of going
nearly every evening to room to sit in
a position as nearly like 10 as he possibly
could. "On asking who or wha! picture
it was," Mr.. Powell said, Il was told
that 1t was the picture of a heathtn god,
hut its memory clung to me and when |
heard its name l never forgot it, but
learned later what the symbol was aud
its meaning" Being, as he said, natu-
rally of religious turn OF mind, and being
intended by his father to be clergy
mar, Mr.. Powell was we'll educated in
the Christian doctrine. "But recog-
nized and felt that there must be some
law that l could work out myself, and
that If / controlled my thoughts my life
manifested an obedience to that power;
but it was long before recognized that
this was the law of right thought. :" AT
one time he appears to- have sought a
refuge IN agnosticism, but soon after Ee
abandoned this mental attitude and
perusal of "The Light Of Asia" aroused
In him the desire to take refuge in the
law of Lord Buddha
