james Pretlow, an oldfsoldier, aged
tifty-two, living at Daver, KY, has re-
covered his speech after being deprived
of it for over four years. In January,
1890, Pretlow became suddenly dumb
while sitting in grocery. One night
last week. about II o'clock, his wife was
awakened by a yell from her husband,
and was astonished to hear him call her
name. The gift of speech so suddenly
taken from him bad, after many years
returned. Pretlow has very little control
over his voice.
james B. Dill, of Orange, N. Y, has
a bay horse named Jack, which cannot
be purchased at any price. Not many
days since while Mr.. Dill was standing at
his stable door holding Jack by the
bride be heard scream, and recognized
the voice of his little daughter. The
horse jerked away and ran to the child.
The little girl had been attacked by a
very large and fierce cur dog. The dog
had already torn the child's dress very
badly. AS the horse approached the
child he reared up on his hind legs, and
came down with crushing weight with
his fore feet on the dogs back, causing it
to release It's hold on the girl. AS the dog
was about to rise again, he let fly bis
hind legs and gave chat animal kick
that landed him ten feet away against
stone wall as dead as though dozen bull
lets had crushed through its brain. The
child was only slightly hurt but greatly
frightened. Mr.. Dill has given orders fol
this horse always to be supplied with the
best Of food.

1t was Yankee Law.

Judge W. B. Bennett, the present
efficient Judge Of the county court Of
his county, relates the following ex-
perience in his early practice: He was
a young lawyer in Thomasville, Ca,
in the year 1854. One Friday after
noon Col. -, lawyer in the same
city, came to him and asked him to
accompany him the next day to the
Justice Court in the seventeenth dis
trict. Bennett consented to go. The
next morning on the way to the JUS
tice Court Col. told him he
would make his client employ him.
When they reached the court the
client refused to employ Bennett. The
case was called and the trial proceed
ed. Finally Bennett arose and told
the Colonel if he had no objection he
would volunteer on the other side OF
the case. Col. readily gave his
consent. The evidence was finally all
in. Bennet's client had no case.
Col. - arose and addressed the jury
and read his law. When he had fin
ished Bennett arose and said, "Col.
-, will you let me see that law you
read to the jury p
"Why, certainly, sir" responded
Bennett looked at the book. 1t was
"Greenleaf on Evidence" and on the
front page it had Boston, Mass. 1t
must be remembered that this was
soon after the .Dred Scott decision,
and the country was wild with excite
ment and hated the Yankees: Ben
net turned to the jury and said,
"Gentlemen of the jury, do you know
what kind of law Col. - has read
to you? Why, it is law written by
Yankee. What kind Of law do you
think these Yankees, who believe it is
right to steal our negroes, will write Z
The kind of law that we ought to be
governed by? Why did not the gen,
tleman find Georgia law on this case !
We have Cobb's Digest, the Georgia
Reports and an abundance of good
Georgia law bearing on this case.
Yet Col. - couldn't find any Geor-
gia law, but had to go away off yonder
to that negro-stealing State of Massa-
chusetts to find law This Georgia
law must have been against Col. -
or he would have used it. This ques-
tion resolves itself into the simple
question whether you will be governed
by Massachusetts law or Georgia law.
Here followed TRADE of abuse
against the Yankees and an appeal to
the jury that they would not decide
this case according to Yankee laws.
The jury left the room and in a few
minutes returned with verdict in
favor of Bennet's client.-Atlanta
Journal.

Where Birds Get Drunk.

"Birds get drunk sometimes as well
as man ; at least they do down where
I live" said Harvey Ellis, of Florida.
"I'll tell you how | know it. There
is bush or shrub known as the pride
of China, which is quite common down
in my State. This bush in the winter
is covered with berries on which the
birds delight to feed. These berries
are commonly called by US madberries,
from the fact that over-indulgence in
them produces precisely the same ef-
feet upon the birds that liquor does on
man. One day last winter my stable
boy brought bluejay home which he
said he found auttering about in the
road. It would lie in the boys hand
seemingly perfectly contented, will,
ewes elated and fearless, and its head
wagged about in a ridiculous manner
in its efforts to hold up. 1t was ;om-
mon North American drunk, nothing
more. The bird had INDUCED in the
mad-berry until it was reduced to an
almost helpless state Of intoxication'
Thousands of respectable northern
robins which migrate to Florida in the
winter, and who would blush to dc
such thing at home, are found lying
about in the grossest state OF intoxl
cation from the same cause DIT

Uncle Sans HAIL.

There was big fire up town week
or two ago, and there were lot of en-
gines and hose carts, hook and ladder
and patrol wagons-all the usual crowd
of vehicles that fire brings out and,
of course, a lot of persons to look on
and much excitement. The fire lines
were promptly laid out, and policemen
and fremen were stationed all about
to keep the crowds in place. All
wagons and carriages were turned
aside, and made to go a block or two
either side. Suddenly horse dashed
right up into the crowd which fell
away at each side; the policemen
looked, and when they saw what sort
Of wagon horse was drawing they
called out: Groom, room, make way
there !" and let the driver 60 right on
through the fire lines, pass the burn
ing building and rapidly on his way.
At first persons watching thought it
was an ambulance, but it wasn't; it
was big, blue, covered, box-like
looking wagon, and the reason it could
go unhindered through the lines was
because it had on one side the letters:
''U. s. Mail"
It seems simple thing to put
postage stamp on letter, but in re-
ality It is wonderful thing. Aladdin,
when he rubbed the lamp in the Ara
bian Nights story that you have all
read, called up powerful slaves, who
few to do his bidding. And to stamp
letter with the little bit Of painted
and gummed paper that the postofices
sell for the purpose is to ask the aid
Of powerful government, that stops
at nothing, to carry the letter safely
and quickly to it's destination.
Mail wagons have the right Of way
over everything else, not excepting
fire engines and ambulances. Mail
trains and mail steamers must not be
hindered in their progress in any pre-
ventable way. Night and day, with
out let or hindrance, your letter must
be rushed on to the address it bears.
A stamped letter is sacred thing
in the eyes of the United States Gov
ernment. No one is permitted by law
to open it except the person whose
name it bears. A man committed sui
eide not long ago, and on his desk was
found letter addressed to some one
away off in Iowa. The stamp was on
the letter, and though it had not
started, and though the coroner was
most anxious to open it, for he felt
sure it would throw some light on the
mans death be could not do it. The
small, pinkish, oblong bit of paper,
with the head Of Washington engraved
upon it, that was gummed up in one
corner, was as good as q body Of armed
soldiers to protect the dead mans
wishes.
And every little innocent stamp
that is used does the same watchdog
service.-Nep York Times.

GOD SAVE THE STATE.
Cotton Manufacturing,

A North Carolina dispatch says
On account Of the depressed condition
of the bag and yarn market the Her:
mitage Cotton Mills and the Boyd
Manufacturing Company, both Of
Reidsville, N. c., have decided to
shut down until trade revives, having
as much stock on hand as they care to
store. These mills are the only ones
in North or South Carolina that have
shut down this year, as far as known.
Two months ago there was afeeling Of
uncertainty about the regular running
of the mills at Charlottesville, N. c.,
which is cotton mill centre, but it is
said that all of them, nearly dozen,
are running on full time and there is
no probability Of their ceasing to dc
so in the near future.

facturer, who had been spending some
time in this State and South Carolina,

setts Company. Each Of these, he
said, would build mills with capacity
of over so, 900 spindles.
"But," added he, "the town that

factories will find itself disappointed,

Offices. From the Mansion, surround
ed by his friends and legal advisers,
the Governor is issuing his orders and
exercising his authority. 1t is said
that as soon as the safety Of all the
escaping constables is assured and the
excitement subsidies the troops are
to be withdrawn and the civil law re-
stored.
The excitement in town and coun-
try, from the mountains to the sea,
has been at fever heat. Here in Co.
lumbia particularly the tension was
very great. The course Of the Gov
ernor is most bitterly condemned by
his political opponents, and as heart
lily endorsed by his supporters. The
events of the past few days have
widened the breach between a once
happy and united people, and broth
ers stood armed, ready to take the
blood Of brothers. 1t is a sight to
make the angels weep and ought to
drive every Christian patriot to his
knees.
Since the Darlington tragedy last
Friday there has been no further
violence or bloodshed, either at Dar-

But our people stand upon the crest

civil strife.
We have thus given, without COM

whether conducted by individuals or
the State; Of the growing spirits of
lawlessness throughout the Common
wealth of the fearful consequences
of unbridled passion ; the unwise ex-
ercise Of authority, and Of blind and
malignant partisanship. And these
lessons are for all-for both political
factions alike.
We sincerely trust the worstis over.
