other surprise awaited me when l was pre-

where she received me was handsomely
furnished and modern in every way, and
her costume was of the latest Partisan
style. Communication was easy, because
Tolstoi speaks English and his wife

Heaven NIight ne a LoveIy PLACE.

A little boy, when questioned by his
mother regarding some escapade, had not
told the strict truth regarding the affair,
says the Chicago Tribune. She had TAX
en- him on her knee and was explaining
to him that people who told lies could
not go to heaven.
Mamma" said he. did you ever tell
a lie?"
well. my son. don't know, but pos
sibly at some time in my life l may have
told some things that were not quite
as they should have been"
Did papa ever tell a lie?' again ques-
toned the boy
81 am afraid he has" replied his mother.
Did Aunt Fannie ever tell lie?" per-
sisted the boy. His mother concluded it
was about time to choke her son off be-
fore he had involved all the relations
on both sides of the family so she said:
My boy, l am afraid there is hardly
any person in the world but who has,
at some period of their life, made some
statements that would not be called ex-
actly the truth
The boy pondered over this for few
moments. Mamma" he said, sit must
be dreadful lonesome in heaven-nobody
but God and George Washington"

Rniment Doesn't Make the Man.

The Boston Saturday Evening Gazette
says that q well-known Boston man wore
a white yachting cap last week, ignorant
of the fact that it was the regulation cap
adopted by the Christian Endeavorers.
He was accOsted right and left by men,
women and young girls for information.
He could not understand what it meant
till a stranger accosted him on Union
street: His patience was exhausted, and
he said: No, sir, 1 cant tell you any
thing about it; but ], will show you to a
good place where they sell two good
drinks for . quarter, if you have got a
quarter about YOU" The stranger van
ished. This recalls a good story, told by
himself, on one of Boston's greatest sur
geons, who always dressed in the regu-
lation clergyman suit. Being in Phila-
delphia on a certain occasion, he had a
desire TO visit Girard College. Walking
up to the main entrace he rang the bell
The janitor appeared, and remarked:
"None of your cloth are allowed in here"
THE they are not" warmly an

sir" was the polite remark Of the jani-

ton in his will.

look. But a man on a back seat, who
lives in Bradford, walked up to the would
be terror and said calmly:
stranger, you say you are the best
man on the train. If that is the case
what's the use in making such a fuss
about it? think you are the worst man
on this train-certainly the worst be-
haVed. When l see a fellow acting like
you are doing l set him down as a cow

The terror had evidently received a
serious setback, but he didn't like to APP
pear to be too easily subdued
Think you are a batter man than am,
do you?'

you're a liar" exclaimed the terror
and made a pass at him.
That is where he made the mistake. The
gentleman from Bradford let 20 his right

head so that it required five stitches to
sew up the cash. After he had recovered
somewhat and began to realize what had
happened, he said:

There are three things which Justify
the public in accepting the statement as
10 the policy OF the Southern railway. as
made by Mr.. Samuel Spencer, president Of
the Southern Railway Company in mis-
letter 10 the Macon Chamber OF Com
merce. as correct. The first is that Mr..
Spencer has well established reputation
for frank and fair dealing. the second IS
that J. p. Morgan K co. are not railroad
Spectators and wreckers. They are in
vcstOrs. and they make money by develop
ing properties. not by letting them run
down with a view Of acquiring them at
less than their value. and the third is the
Southern Railway Company understands
the advantage. in fact The necessity, Of
retaining the confidence and good viii Of
the people of Georgia.
Ever since the Richmond Terminal
passed into the control OF J. p Morgan &
Co. apprehension has been express
cd, and honestly expressed. by men Of
prominence il various parts Of the state,
that the Southern railway would use the
great power which its large railroad mill

matter Of rates. and to discriminate
against towns and cities whenever it
found it advantageous to do so. Particu-
larry has this apprehension found eK-
preston since the Southern acquired the
Georgia Southern and Florida.
President Spencer declares there is no
ground for any such fear; that the South
ern, the Central and the Georgia South
crn and Florida viii be operated separate
ly, and that the interests Of the people
who are dependent upon any one of these
roads will be carefully guarded. The aim
of the Southern is to steadily improve its
properties with the view of making out
of them all it is possible to make legit-
imately. Economy will be introduced when
ever it can be done advantageously. and
the effort will be to maintain uniform and
stable rates, so that no person shall have
an advantage over another. Rate cutting
and secret rebates will be discountenanced
and. as far as possible. prevented.
With a railroad management operating
railroads upon strictly business principles
and a railroad commission to fix the rates.
we do not see that the people of Georgia
have anything to fear from the Southern
railway, even if it should secure railroad
properties in addition to those it already
has.

Democratic Good Times.
From the Philadelphia Record Dem.)

The return of prosperity under the
new tariff law and the renewed conn
dence in our national credit are the most
amazing events in our political or indus
trial history. Since the LIST of January
262 establishments are reported to have
increased the wages of their workmen.
and of these industrial plants 1877 in
clude $4,000 employees. The number of
worl1men in the remaining 135 establish
ments has not been estimated, but il Is
not unreasonable to conclude that the
whole number Of workmen benefited by
increased wages under the new condl-
tons OF democratic rule exceeds FIVE
hundred thousand wage-earners. This in
cludes neither those industries far re-
moved from great news centers nor new
establishments that have recently sprung

the bright and shining lights at the free
silver pow-pow in Griffin, Ga, the other

Tribune says that he made a regular
populist speech" and used the very same
arguments which ne denounced Mr. Wat
son for using less than TWO years ago
We. are sorry TO hear this. Mr.. Walsh is
such good fellow that it always gives
US serious wrench to see him go wrong
But really he should not trust himself
away from home in the company OF
wicked and designing men They are al
most always sure TO make him say and 60
things which he should not say and do. He
is so ha bic TO fall SO easily led astray. so
apt 10 lose his head when the band begins
to play; and then he gets SO sorry for ii

that he will stay at home hereafter. and
not be foolng around with the populists.

The American Dairyman is of the opin-

The Dairyman had published a notice,
saying that a number of black laborers
for farm work were wanted in New York
state A southern newspaper said that in
its city there were lots of colored labor
ers that could be spared, and invited the
people represented by the Dairyman to
come and get all you want" The reply
to this was that city negroes were not
wanted at all: that they were Of no ac-
count on farms. and that New York has
already more of them than it finds any
use for. Farmers are short-handed, and
are willing to pay fair wages to country
blacks, but, according to the Dairyman,
