ALABAMA.

An Editors Experience.-The editor of the Moulton Advertiser through its col- umns, gives an experience of himself as follows: While this editor was masti- eating the breast of a spring chicken on Sunday morning last, a small, sharp bone was lodged in his throat, which gave him great pain and caused some ex- eitement among his neighbors. He hur- fied to the drug store, where Dr. Simpson worked his tubes and hooks without ef- feet. Emetics were then in order. A gill of lobelia was given. No good. Waited five minutes and gave a dose of apomof- phia. Another failure. Waited ten min utes and administered a large dose or ipecacuanha. 4 dead failure. Then a combination of lobelia and ipecacuanha was given without effect, when the edi- tor disgusted with the whole proceed ing, returned to his home, closely fol- lowed by Drs. Simpson and HouAon, where he threw himself into chair in a state of mind bordering on despair Just then a deathly sickness struck his stomach and something like cloud-bur or water spout broke loose and away went the editors breakfast, the bone in his throat and all thoughts of passing in his checks yet awhile. We are satls- fled now that DTS. Simpson and Hous- ton can find a bone anywhere in man body--if you will just give them time However our heartfelt thanks are due 
 most grateful manner we know how.
 Killing at Mable Mines.-The Warrior Index prints the following: The resi- dents in the vicinity of Mable mines were startled by the sharp report of a Tile Monday afternoon between the hours of l and o'clock. A large crowd soon gathered around the prostrate form oI some unfortunate man. It was Robert Smith, colored man. weltering in his own gore with a bullet in his abdomen. It developed that Smith and Hogan had been patching together up till Saturday night, when they fell out over some trivial matter and disbanded. Smith was having his part of the household goods removed by man named Simmons when Hogan came upon them with Winches- ter rifle and immediately shot Smith down and turned upon Simmons and fired two shots, neither of which took effect Hogan eluded the officers and made good his escape, Smith fingered between life and death until 4 o'clock Tuesday evening, when he gave up the ghost. Both men are colored.
 A Noble Mother Dead.-The Hot Blast prints the following: There died at her beautiful country home, Rose land" near Eufaula this morning one of Alabama's noblest women-Mrs. Brad ford. She was the mother of Mrs. Bish- op H. M. Jackson and the aunt of Mrs. Thomas Irby of this city and Mrs. A. $. Johnston. Mrs. Irby and Mrs. Johnston went to her bedside Wednesday and MT.

THE ALABAMA EXHIBIT.

The value of the Alabama exhibit at Atlanta has been more or less dwelt on by the press of the State from one end 10 the other, but it has in many localities been only in a half-hearted, spasmodic way Now, no great enterprise can sue ceed by any such methods. There should be a deep and convincing sentiment among all classes and professions that this exposition is a golden opportunity to let the world know just how rich Ala bama is in all that people look for to pro- duce wealth or live in comfort and happi- ness. If selfish motives alone will infu- ence them it should be easy to show that a creditable exhibit will prove advanta- geous to every citizen in the State, but there are other matters equally as potent if the right cord be touched. State pride is so near akin to genuine patriotism that it can be said that no really patri- otic citizen would willingly see his State fail to be creditably represented at At lanta, because the world expects it and will regard it a shame and discredit not to have such an exhibit. A small sum from each will make the burden light, and any one can send this to some mem Der of the board. The Age-Herald heart fly joins in this enterprise and asks ev- cry Alabamian to aid it.

POET AND PAINTER.

Tor the Age-Herald. A painter sat at his easel,
 And patiently, day by day, He wrought a wonderful picture To bring him fame for ave- But when his labor was ended, And framed and set up high, He saw with pitiful sorrow The people pass it by. A poet wrote in his sanctum A poem all clear and strong To touch the hearts of the erring And lift them out of wrong; But still they went on their journey, Nor needed this measured lore, But laughed and sinned and repented, Then wept and sinned once more. Then each as he turned from failure, And gave himself up to woe To that keen torturing anguish Which noble natures know Discerned through mists of emotions That held him still enthrall, His soul uncovered before him, Its virtues, vices, all. And thoughts of many a sorrow Came fiuttering back again, Forgotten sins in their horror And treason to God and men; A child untaught by it's parents, A woman betrayed and lost; A selfish aim in his working Achievement at any cost. Iris only truth that can triumph, 'Tis only the pure can teach; 'Tis only he who is guileless The hearts of men can reach.

We beg to say to the people of Birming- ham that the advance in southern pig iron, the general improvement in trade and the especially fine crop prospects at the south should encourage and persuade them to put their own shoulders to the wheel and by their own exertions sus- tain and maintain the credit of their city.

If man is hopeful of the future he becomes bull; if he has no faith in the future he becomes a bear. It is sentiment that rules the market, as well as the social affairs of life.

Republican journals are apparently in ecstacy over the trouble the Democratic party Is to have with the silver question next year. The Democratic party will suffer immensely, they say, by the con- version of the farmers of the West and South, especially through Coins Finan- cial School" But there is every indica- tion that the silver movement is losing ground in the South. The farmers of the West, however, are Republicans. and their conversion to thc silver craze will mean trouble to the Republican party.

In the early days of the Christian era certain men had the gift of tongues they could speak in several different languages without previous training. This peculiar gift was thought to have disappeared until the free silver discus sion was precipitated on the country. Now we find free silver orators who have the gift of tongues, for they can speak several different ways on the subject.

Ever since Lord Rosebery became Prime Minister on the 3d of March, 1894, rllmors of his resignation have been cur rent. but now they have materialized. These rumors for time were mere "cof- fee house babble" and as such were en- titled to no credence. However, in the light of recent events there was more truth in them than supposed. Not many days since Lord Rosebery delv
 cred his Clerkenwell speech, and the ru- mors of his resignation took of renewed
 life. In that speech he intimated that under certain contingencies he would re-
 sign. He evidently meant that if his resignation was best for the public good
 he would tender it. This contingency has arrived, according to his best judg- ment. He prefers to appeal to the con-
 stituencies. This is the proper step in
 English politics when a vote of want of
 confidence has been passed or is prob able. If the constituencies vote against
 him he will place his resignation and the
 seals of office in her Majesty's hands. Lord Rosebery has allowed no private considerations to influence him. He ac- cepted the office under protest, and at the sacrifice of personal interests, but for the sake of the public good he has ig- nored all private considerations.
 In settling balances between two coun- tries the merchants much prefer bars of gold to the stamped coin. In fact this bar gold is the measure of value. It is weighed and thoroughly tested. There is then no dispute as to the alloy, as
 there may be in stamped coin. This
 proves the falsity of the claim of the free silverites that the legal tender of the government will make a coin pass

A Horses Sense OF Locality.

About the year 1856, says the Lewis.
ton Journal, little colt was born on
farm in Aroostook County, in the
State of Maine, colt that was soon
sold away from the place, to come
shortly after into the possession of a
physician in the town of Houlton, who
at the opening of the Civil,War went
ito the 'front.'" taking with him for
cavalry service the colt, that had now
reached maturity. Through all the
vicissitudes of a five years campaign
this horse followed the fortunes of his
master, being wrecked on the Red
River expedition and suffering various
other disasters, to return at the close
of the war to the State of Maine,
across which he carried his master
horseback until the town of Houlton
was again reached.
On the journey through Aroostook
County the road traversed lay past
the farm where some ten years before
this horse was born. Neither his
life between the shafts of doctors
gig nor five years of war campaigning
had caused him to lose his bearings,
and when he reached the lane that led
up to the old farm house he turned
up to the house as confidently as
though he had been driven away from
it but half hour before.
