An interesting feature at the WeBt Point
military academy on Thursday last was the
mounted exercises of the cadets in the
riding hall. By the time Secretary of War
Endicott and party arrived Capt. Augur
| uu i a line of horsemen before him. The
men wore their gray fatigue suits and sat
t heir horses welt At a word they started
off one after another and swept about the
area at a gallop. Then sabres were drawn
and the drill commenced. First the blade
was broughtldown upon an imaginary foe
ut the right, then it was twirled in air,
next thrust forward, again backward, and
last a sweeping slash was made to the left.
< mce t he horses were in line, the men stood
at their heads. “Mount.” In a twinkling
overv cadet was in air. In another, without
touching a stirrup, he was in the saddle.
Another command. The men were on
tliclr feet again, but only to vault clean
over saddle and all and stand ready at the
other side. Then up again in the saddle.
They twisted around, now facing forward,
now backward and again sideways. And
u idle they so drilled two uprights were
fixed at a distance of about titty feet from
each other with a pad as big as a can lived
upon each with a handle attached to it.
At a word the cavalrymen dashed off.
Now one came along at full gallop, leaned
over as he reached the upright till his
band was below the level of tne stirrups,
and in full career picked up one pad after
another and tossed it behind him. It was
a feat requiring coolness and address, but
nearly alt executed it satisfactorily.
Next the pad was placed upon an up
right the height of a man, and at the same
distance ns before another was placed on a
lower stand. Between them was placed
horizontally a beam resting on two up
rights—a good, stiff' jump for a horse in
.such a limited space, and one requiring a
rider to have his brain clear. The word
was given. A horseman came galloping
on. As he reached the taller stand
lie drew a revolver. It flashed, and the
pad, struck by the bullet, tumbled off,
while the horse dashing on was a moment
after lifted over the bar in a flying jump.
Round still the horseman went, his com
rades following one by one. And
now os he approached the stand on
which the pad is replaced he has
liis sabre out. He slasnes at it, hits
it fairly, and almost before it reaches
the ground he is over the bar; his sabre
cuts an arc through the air as he leans over
bis horse’s shoulder and tosses up with a
great slash a bunch of tanbark, and then
just recovering in his saddle he brings
down the blade with a sweep upon the
pad of the second upright and tosses it off.
Jn the next exercise the upright and
pads are still there, but in place of the
jump is a high pole with a traverse bar,
from which hangs just within reach of a
horseman’s sabre an iron ring only a few
inches in diameter. And through all this,
too, the horses go around at the top
of their speed, the feat repeated again
and again, a few failing, but nearly all suc
cessful.
Next saddles are removed and the men
ride bareback at will. There is no circus
performance like this spectacle. The place
is fuU of bounding steeds; some with riders
leaning over their shoulders till their
hands sweep the ground; some lying at
full length upon their backs; some facing
to the rear, but guiding them with spur
and rein; some jumping on and off, like
circus riders, while the animal is going at
the top of his speed, and some vaulting
clean over them and keeping up the pace.
It is a thrilling spectacle, which a burst
of applause rewards, and then the men
repeat their exciting drill, training by
couples on half the number of horses. It
would be called a gallant equestrian show
anywhere. An old officer’s comment in
terpreted the general opinion: “I never
saw better riders.”
THEY WOULD BE KINGS.
Pretenders to the Thrones of Hweilen ami lien-
mark.
Pall MaJl Gazette.
Sweden and Denmark are both at pres
ent besieged by pretenders to the throne. !
One in the Swedish province of East Goth- I
land claims to be the unfortunate Prince
Gustaf, elder brother of the reigning king, !
who, in the beginning of this century, I
while at a Held manceuvre jn Skone, sud- 1
denly fell from his horse and died. It is to \
this day believed by a large portion of the i
peasants that Prince Gustaf did not die, !
out was carried off to Norway because of I
bis intention to marry a girl of humble I
birth. Having succeeded in escaping, he I
iet his beard grow and went to Italy, where, I
under the name of Garibaldi, he effected !
liie liberation of that country. He is, how- I
ever, not dead, but will come in and lie the
king of the Swedes. So much for the 1
Swedish pretender.
The Danish one has just turned up. There |
has arrived iu Copenhagen from Stettin I
two men, father and son, the former GO, I
the latter 21 years old, with a trunk loaded ;
"lth papers and documents to prove that
1 hey arc the direct descendants of the'
house of Oldenburg, and to show that if at
the death of Frederick VII they had pos- 1
sussed these documents they could have \
proved their exclusive right to the throne, j
They both bear the original name of the!
house of Gluckburg, Beck, and went the;
day after their arrival to the master of
ceremonies to seek an audience with the
king. They were directed to seek it through
tne German ambassador, being German I
subjects. The embassy, after some parley, !
dal not act, and the pretenders tried them
selves to obtain an audience to suggest that 1
their claims—which are attested by the
highest German authorities—may be sub
jected to a thorough scrutiny. To begin |
with, they can cUini an inheritance of l
2.500,000 marks with which to carry on the
case. They then applied to the Stettin I
authorities for a recommendation to the .
German council of the legation on the 27th
Neither of the two men looks as an ad- j
Venturer. The older is tall and slender, i
w ith an aristocratic bearing and youthful i
and winning manner.-). His features are !
in an amazing degree like those of the late
Russian czar, so much so chat any one ,vlio
has seen the czar’s picture is struck with I
tiie resemblance. The older of the two I
gentlemen has passed the greater part of
Jiis time in researches among the archives
and collections in Copenhagen. Whole
nights be studied his family history, hut
he always was stopped at a vanished child.
Alter fifteen years of labor he has to his
lull satisfaction proved that he is grand
son’s grandson of this vanished child. Be
sides, he has in his possession armorial
and other precious things to strengthen
ms claims, i’he young Beck bears a strong
resemblance to Prince Waldemar. and his
acquaintance with the affairs of the house .

Nat a Good Custom for Anu'rii'nti howl's.
Chicago News.
Clara—-Isn't that an idea. The paper '
says that Japanese girls who want hus
bands set flower pots out on the front
portico. Wouldn't it be nice if the custom
were adopted in this country?
Mollis—Why, nonsense! It would drive
the American lovers away.
“Drive them away?”
"Yes, indeed. You just ought to see how
the men rave around when their wives ask l
them to get up at night and bring in the |
flower pots because there’s frost coming.”
Scene In n Burlier Shop.
Orlando (Fla.) Record.
On Saturday evening last, in Craine's
barber shop, in this city, one of the most
exciting episodes occurred that for the
Jjjjpe being it waa feared would prove fatal.
1 he shop was crowded with customers
waiting to be shaved, and discussing the
hanging, and some of the speakers were
very eloquent In their descriptions of the
awful solemnity of the scene, until there
was the deepest feeling of sadness per
vading the room. Mr. Carroll, an old
gentleman, was seated in the chair, and
was about to be lathered, when ull at once
there was a pause in the rehearsal of the
effect of the strangulation by means of
hempen cord encircling the neck
of n man with u slipping
noose, and Mr. Carroll, wrought up toil
fever pitch, pitched forward from the chair
to the floor, Hat on his face, appearing as
if iu terrible agony. The men rushed out
in a frightened mob, thinking some acci
dent had happened—either t he razor had
slipped and ins throat had been cut, or he
bad been shot by some one from the out
side. He lay unconscious for a moment or
two, when lie was aroused and brought to,
but in n weak and emaciated condition.
Officers arrived amid the confusion, and
thinking there was a genuine case of foul
play looked uround for the culpfit. Ex
planations followed, and Mr. Carroll wrs
taken home, where he soon recovered.
(li'oraU Farms.
The peach crop around Sandersville will,
it is said, be unusually good.
Some oat fields around McDonough are
beginning to put on the yellow tinge and
are about ready for the scythe.
The wool clip of the country tributary
to Albany is coming rapidly into market
and prices paid are good.
Elberton is luxuriating in a bountiful
supply of vegetables of all kinds. A few
ripe peaches and apples are on the market.
The outlook for an excellent corn crop
iu Mitchell county is remarkably good.
Cotton is also looking well, but the stand
is bad Grass is abundant and thriving.
The recent continued heavy rains in El
bert county have thrown the farmers very
much behind with their crops. Grass is in
terfering very seriously with the young cot
ton, and farm laborers are in demand. Most
of the bottom corn has been planted three
times, and no stand yet on a large portion
of the land. So the present outlook for
crops there is rather gloomy.
Sleeping Car*.
A physician, referring to the custom of
traveling on sleeping cars with the berths
made up with their heads towards the en
gine, said: “It is certainly bad for the
brain of the sleeper as it is not natural,
and it is no wonder that so many travelers,
especially those who have been on the
road exclusively, experience bad effects
from it. Take infants in baby carriages
and no sane woman will think of trund
ling the vehicle along so the child goes
head first. They always—except the young
and inexperienced mother—push them
along feet first. Physicians invariably ad
vise such locomotion. It is the same thing
on the cars, and no one should hesitate
about having his berth made up so as to
move along feet first. It is much bettor
for the brain.”—St. Paul Globe.
Teiii'liiiig the ltcnux.
A certain young ludy living in Washing
ton earns a line salary by teaching Ameri
can small talk to those young attaches
who are great beaux in society. Her plan
is simple enough. Her pupil calls, is re
ceived, and converses with his hostess
teacher for two hours. The talk is con
fined to drawing-room topics. This wick
ed young teacher taught six young fellows
precisely the same round of pretty and
witty phrases, and at a certain grand ball
they were hovering around Miss Daisy
Ricketts, one of the youngest and most
popular of the Washington girls, and each
and every one was saying the same things
to her.—Washington Correspondence New
Orleans Picayune.
Where Hie “Best” is Spoken.
Montreal Gazette.
The best French is always spoken in
Paris, where there is an inimitable accen t
which makes law. The best English is
certainly spoken in Dublin.
The best German is spoken in Vienna,
although I always liked the Dresden ar
ticulation. In Florence they speak the
best Italian, but the Romans pronounce it
better. Lingua Toscana in bocca Romaua.
I never heard more musical English than
from the lips of educated New York la
dies, and there is a peculiar charm in the
old French spoken by the pretty women
of Quebec.
IT SEARED.
WESTERN RAILROAD OE ALABAMA. ! TRUSTEE'S SALE,
BUT THE HEART THROBS OF
TRUE MANHOOD.
Sparta, Ga., Sept. 22, 188,*.--To tlu* Coimtitu '
tion, Atlanta—Were I to practice deception in n
case like this. I would think that my heart had
becomee seared beyond recognition.
To he guilty of hearing false testimony, thereby !
imperiling the lives of my fellow-men, would
place me beneath the dignity of a gentleman.
The fhets which I disclose are endorsed and
vouched fbr by the community in which ! live,
and 1 trust they may exert the intluence in
tended.
For twenty long years I have suffered untold
tortures fYoin a terrible pain and weakness in the 1
small of my back, which resisted all modes and
manner of treatment.
For a longtime the horrifying pangs of an eat
ing cancer of my lower lip has added to my mis
ery and suffering. This encroaching, burning
and puinftil sore on my lip was pronounced Epi
thelial Cancer by the prominent physicians in
his section, which stubbornly resisted the ln»st
medical talent. About eighteen months ago a
cutting, piercing pain located in my breast, which
could not be alluyed by the ordinary modes of
treatment.
These sufferings of misery and prostration be
came so great that, on the 18th of last July, a
leading physician said that I could not live long
er than four days, and I had about given up in
despair. The burning and excruciating ravages 1
of the cancer, the pain Ail condition of my back
and breast, and the rapid prostration of my
whole system combined to make me a mere
wreck of former manhood.
While thus seemingly suspended on u thread
between life and death, I commenced the use of
B. B. B., the grandest blood medicine to me and \
my household, ever used.
The effect was wonderfiil—it was magical. The
excruciating pains which had tormented me by
day and by night for twenty years were soon j
held in abeyance, and peace and comfort were •
restored to a suffering man, the cancer com- !
menced healing, strength was imparted to my I
feeble frame, and when eight bottles had bt en
used I was one of the happiest of men, and felt .
about as well as I ever did.
All pain had vanished, the cancer on my lip
healed, and I was pronounced cured. To those
who are afflicted, and need a blood remedy, 1 ;
urge the use of B. B. B. as awonderfiilly effective, :
speedy and cheap blood purifier.
Alkkn Grant.
Sparta, Ga., September 22. 1X85.~I saw Mr. j
Allen Grant, when he was suffering with epitlu- j

B. B. B. medicine, as stated above, I find him j
now almost if not perfectly cured.
