WASHINGTON, January 8.-The contest
over the Office of Surveyor of Pittsburg.
promises to get warm after little, and be
more prolonged than was at first expected.
There is now on file at the Treasury Depart
ment letter from Representative Dalzell,
requesting the Secretary of the Treasury to
delay sending an appointment to the Presi-
dent until he can be heard on behalf of Mr..
Frank Case.
AS the Secretary very gracefully yielded
to a similar request made by Colonel Bayne
last August, it is probable that before he
indicates his selection to the President he
will invite Mr.. Dslzell to present his views
of the situation. Hitherto it appears that
the friends of Mr.. Case have made their
main argument directly to the President,
and it is whispered at the White House that
His Excellency has lent very friendly ear
in that quarter.

AN ACTIYELIFE.

A man who has always been ac-
tive-always doing something in the
way of business-cannot withdraw
entirely from active pursuits with
out permanent injury. Enforced
idleness becomes irksome, and he is
unable to enjoy himself. lie con-
stantly longs for the hustle and rou-
tine of business, his mind lacks &C.
cupation, and he simply rusts from
inactivity unusual to an energetic
man. In other words, although
aware that his system needs rest, his
active mind will not permit him to
res! be finds he has adhered so
closely to business that it it is diff
cult TO wean himself from it. In
stead of deriving physical benefit
from relaxation it is positive inju-
ry to him, because of his natural in
disposition to rest. lie cannot throw
aside his business habits. He must
have something to do. He learns
that he should have accustomed
himself to little periods of recrea-
ton all through his life, and no.
postponed his holidays until he lost
the capacity to enjoy it.
Every sensible nan, who has the
means and opportunity, recuper-
ates himself by frequent pauses Tor
recreation. Hell does not defer his
period of pleasure until the closing
months of worn out life. He is too
wise to expect impossibilities of ma
ture-the recuperation of an utter
ly exhausted body. He has had his
comfort and enjoyment in due seas
on, and is grateful 20 heaven that
he possesses the means to procure
all the comforts of which he wisely
uses to prolong his existence.

MosT persons think that the boun-
Diary line between the United States
and Canada is imaginary, but it is
distinctly marked by cairns, iron
pillars, earth mounds and open
spaces in the woods, from lake Mich
lgan. all the way to Alaska. There
are nearly four hundred of these
marks between the Lake of the
the Woods and the base of the
Rockies, the British putting a post
every two miles and the Americans
putting one between the British
posts. These are of cast iron, and
on on their faces are cast the words,

A poultry peddler drove into
Ellaville not many days since and
on stopping his wagon noticed a
peculiar commotion among his
chickens. Some were stretched
out Ike asleep, others were swag-
gering around like bummers and
others still were fighting like fury
and blazes. When the peddler
reached for his little brown jug to
treat thirsty friend to little spir-
itual consolation, he discovered that
the jug had turned over and spilled
all its contents. 1t then dawned
upon him that his chickens were on
a bowling spree.

MEN AND BOOKS.

During the commencement seas
on it is we'll to remind the Young
sters of one important fact. 1t is
thls-men sometimes make books.
but books do not make men.
This reflection is suggested by a
paragraph in the Birmingham News,
which states that the late General
Bedford Forest, until he was fifty
years old had never read a book.
He had culled information little
here and there, but he had never
read a book through. And yet he
made the finest practical and wisest
political speeches heard in West
Tennessee.
Forest was man, full statured
and complete. In his own way he
studied, and absorbed such knowl
edge as was useful to him. He knew
how to pick up points from books
without surrendering himself entire
ly to their domination. He was
stong enough and bold enough to
think for himself.
We do not ADVISE our young read
ers to read no books through until
they are fifty years old, but we would
impress upon their minds that if they
will make the most of their native
common sense, and keep their eyes
wide open, they will do more in
the world than they will by turn
ing their backs upon life and ma
t9re, and depending upon books
alone.
Remember that books are useful
tools, and tryannical masters, crush
ing individuality, courage and ener-
gy.-Constitution.

1t is not generally known how
easy matter it is to explore the
bottom of we'll or a cistern or pond
of water by the use of common
mirror. When the sun is shining
brightly hold a mirror so that the
reflected rays of light will tall into
water. A bright spot will be seen
at the bottom, so light as to show
the smallest object plainly, By this
means may be examined the bottom
Of wells fifty feet deep, when half
full, or more, OF water. The small
est objects can be perfectly seen
from the surface. In the same way
one can examine the bottoms of
ponds and rivers, if the water be
somewhat agitated by winds or rap
i'd motion. 1t the well or cistern
be under cover, or shaded by a
building so that the sunlight will
not fall near the opening, it is only
necessary to employ two mirrors,
using one to reflect the light to the
opening, and another to reflect it
down into the water. Light may
be thrown fifty or one hundred
yards to the precise spot desirable,
and then downward.

If anything in the world will make
a man of common sense teel badly,
except when he pinches his finger
in the crack of the door, it is un-
questionably quarrel. No man
tails to think less of himself after it
than before. 1t degrades him in the
eyes of others and what is worse
blunts his senslbilities on the one
hand and increases the power of
passionate irritability Oh the other.
The truth is, the more quietly and
peaceable we get on, the better for
ourselves and neighbors. In nine
cases out of ten the better course is,
if man cheats you, quit dealing
with him if he is abusive quit his
company and if he SANDERS you,
take care to live so that nobody will
believe it. Whoever he is, or how
ever he rnisuses you, the wisest way
is to let hin alone, for there is
nothing better, than this cool, calm
and quiet way OF dealing with the
wrongs we meet.

A SAFE GTTARD

Few people living in malarlal
country but occasionally need a
vigorous tonic, either to keep off the
malarial feelings or else to cure the
disease if it once gets into the sys-
TEN. There is no more uncomfort-
able disease that effects humanity
than chills and fever. 1t drives
away energy and ambition. 1t
makes one feel sick and mean all
over. A safe guard over the disease
and a sure cure is Smiths Tonic
Syrup, made by DR.. John Bull, of
Louisville, Ky. A single bottle will
do for an entire family. 1t is far
better than quininie, as no derange-
ment of the system ever follows it's
use. The use of quinine cause
buzzingjn the ears, dizzy sensations,
nausea and sometimes even convul-
sions and paralysis. Use Smith
Tonic Syrup and all such danger
is avoided. In fact it has all the
good medicinal qualities of quinine
with none of its evil nature.

A DRUMMERs' INSURANCE co.
The Southern Travellers Association
Considering it's Practicability.

The Southern Travellers Association
Considering it's Practicability.
The Savannah branch OF the Southern
Travellers Association is interested just
now in a proposition from the Atlanta
branch with reference to the establishment
of an insurance company. The Atlanta
branch has been operating through the
directors. The charter Of the association
calls for an insurance feature, which may
be established at any time That the associa-
ton sees fit.
Tho Atlanta branch has submitted a
proposition to the effect that If it is granted
the right it will organize an in Surance CON-
pany to be known as the Southern Travellers
Association Accident Insurance C)mpaly,
with a capital of $4,000. The branch pro-
poses to put s. NJ. Inman at the head OF the
company, and by allowing each travelling
man in the south a commission on all the
policies written, it will constitute each an
agent. 1t will go Unto the undertaking with
an understanding that nobody except
Atlanta men shall hold an interest in the
company, and that it shall be operated by
Atlanta men.
The directors have had the matter under
consideration, and they have decided that
the name of the Southern Travellers AsSocia-
ton is worth something. and if any business
should derive some benefits from it. In
view of this fact the Atlanta branch has
been requested, before any arrangements
have been made, to consider whether or not
| 1t can guarantee the association a certain
| percent &c of the business. The branch,
after considering the matter some time,
| has asked the directors what percentage in
their minds is just. At this juncture, the
| Savannah branch has determined to have
| a hand in the matter. 1t is one of the
| branches of the association, and it proposes
| before any agresment has been reached to
| be b ard. 1t bel ewes that what is good
| fl laucially for one Of the branches, Is good
| for all of the branches.
The Savannah branch urges the point
| that if the association has the power to
| establish an insurance feature for the ben
| eft Of the entire association, there is no
| Justice in allowing one branch to take the
matter in its own hands, and operating
| under cover of the association, promote its
! particular ends. The Savannah branch be-
heves that the insurance company should
be established by all of the branches, and
that each branch should pay into the re-
| serve fund its pro rata, and make
the capital whatever amount the
association thinks best, and elect
officers from wherever they can bt
| found most competent. Its successes will
then be shared by every branch, and the in
tentons of the ass )ciation will be carried
out 1t is likely that the Savannah branch
will call a meeting tonight or tom brow
night and take some action upon the matter.

expects to call his committee together to-

building Of the whsrves at the new quaran-

pressed the indIvidu Il opinion tn 1t the bids
are rather high. aud intimated that they
may all be rejected and new bids called for.
The bid Of 7. J. Brown & Co., inadvert-

bid, falling under $4,000 and within the
estimate. The highest bid appears to be
that of w. II. berlin, and approximates
$12 600, considerably over the estimate.

Optical Instruments.

Spectacles are the most universally useful
gift which optical science has conferred
upon mankind More wonderful instruments
abound. The miracles disclosed in human
vision by the telescope and microscope are
known to all. To such marvels spsctacles
lay no claim. But to compen ate for tn is,
their utility is ubiquitous. In the palace of
the monarch and in the cottage of the peas
ant their benefcent influence is equal ly
difrused. 1t is remarkable. also, that unlike
most of other productions of art and sci-
ence, cost can add nothing to their perfec-
tion. Those of the millionaire may be
mounted in gold, and those of the humble
cottager in iron, but the optical medium,
the glass lenses to which they owe their
beneficent Influence, must be the same,
when properly adapted to the eyes, and this
is to be securel by consulting Drs. Bern
hardt and Matthez at the De Soto.
