DAILY ENQUIRER - SUN: COLUMBUS GEORGIA, THURSDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 7, 188(5. HARO TIMES IN NOVA SCOTIA. The R.pld Growth of Seutlarat la Faier ol An nexation to the United Staten. Halifax, October 5.—Nova Scotians ap pear to be thoroughly tired of everything connected with the fishery dispute. Even the trial of the Adams seizure case would , not have caused more than a ripple of excitement had it not been for the ill-ad • vised attempt of the American consul to | exclude press representatives. What his > object was in adopting this absurd course , is a question rather difficult to answer. There is surely no good reason why all the I facts in the case should not be brought ! out. By no other means can the public ol j both countries know how the matter stands, and secure a position to form in- ; telligent judgment. Another, and to the people of the marl- j time provinces a far more important mat- I ter, is now pressing itself upon their at- j tention. They can see as well ns anybody 1 else that the world is being favored with a general business revival. But while pros-I perity is returning to nearly every other I section of the planet their merchants complain that the times are constantly growing worse. Indeed, in Nova Scotia the balance on the wrong side increases so rapidly that the province must soon ob tain substantial relief or cease to be self- supporting. Of course there is only one reason for this lamentable state of affairs. The unnatural so-called national policy forces the maritime people to trade with Canadian merchants, who have neither ability nor inclination to give them a just return for their productions. The repeal issue, which proved so success ful in last summer’s election, was simply a big strike on the part of a state absolutely forced to take the step. It now appears, however, that very little can bo accomplished by asking the home government to grant a separation from the dominion. The present British administration is emphatically of t he Jingo stamp, and thoroughly tinctured with tne rank absurdity called “Imperial federa tion.” Private advices from a usually re liable source indicate that Lord Salisbury and his followers will take the ground that parliament has no right to amend the act which created the Canadian confederation, and only has the right to suggest that the Ottawa government take such measures as may be deemed necessary to remedy grievances and secure the loyalty of the province. The past has proved that no relief can be expected from this quarter, no matter which party is in power. And as Nova Scotia must have reliefer literally starve there is only one alternative. In such a crisis it is not strange that an nexationists are rapidly becoming more numerous. It is now a common thing in Halifax, Yarmouth and other Nova Scotia towns to hear words of desire for union with the United States expressed with a boldness that no one would have dared to employ before the present excitement be gan. A certain Halifax paper directly representing the present Canadian control tries to prove that only a few people en tertain this sentiment. But anybody can easily see that the feeling is widespread, and some of the most influential men in the province declare that unless England fakes a course she is not expected to, it affords the only way out of the present trouble. Altogether the outlook in the maritime provinces is very squally, and no one can be certain the present discontent will not Anally culminate in a change of uational allegiance. Rutnor of the Day of Judgment.” after ward pointed In thrift's “Miscellanies." A quarter of a 'century later two serious shocks of earthquake did occur, one at the east end of the town, and the other in the northern suburbs, the first on the 8th of February, the second on the 8th of March. Thereupon "a cruekbrained fellow” named Bell, a trooper in his majesty’s life guards, ran up and down the streets shouting out that a third was fixed for the 5th of April, thus antedating Wiggins’ notion by exactly a century and a quarter. Many persons laughed at Bell, as their posterity may be inclined to smile at his transatlnatio iinitn- tor: but thousands believed in the prediction and took measures accordingly. As the day grew nigh the excitement increased, and the erddulous people ran away to out lying villages within n circuit of twenty miles of the metropolis. It is said that the inn-koepers and poorer sort of house holders of Islington, Highgate, Hamp stead, Harrow, and Bluckheath, made a market of the terror-stricken folk, charg ing them exorbitantly for bed and board. When April the 5th, 1701, came and went minus an earthquake, the only thing which suffered a shock was Bell’s prophetic rep utation; and a few months later the poor fellow was consigned to an asylum for the insane. We may, indeed, travel much further back along the stream of time and come upon similar manifestations of human credulity here in the good city of London It was predicted that February 1, 1534, would witness the swelling of the Thames to such a height that the metropolis must be submerged, and all living things therein drowned. As In 1781. the prophecy met with credence, and many people fled into the surrounding country. Bolton, the prior of 9t. Bartholomew’s, built a fortress at Harrow-on-the-Hili, which he stocked with provisions for a couple of months, and repaired thither with his brethren. Many wealthy citizens petitioned the prior to And them houseroom in his re treat; but ho would only entertain his personal frieuds, of whom a goodly assem blage was forthcoming. When, however, the 1st of February arrived, “the Thames, unmindful of the foolish crowd upon its banks,Jflowed on quietly as of yore. The tide ebbed at its usual hour, flowed to its usual height, and then ebbed again, just as if twenty astrologers had not pledged their words to the contrary.” The astrol ogers subsequently put it about that the stars were right and they were wrong. They had made a miscalculation by exactly 100 years. Yet it hap pened that when February t, 1624, ar rived, London was not destroyed by water, but the prophets had passed beyond the reach of mundane criticism. Doubtless during their afterstay on earth, and when thinking the matter over, these wise men comforted themselves with the reflection that, whether the astral bodies were right or wrong, they at least had effected a profitable time bargain. These few facts, drawn at random from the long and de plorable history of superstition, and pre sented with every mark of necessary and becoming respect to Prof. Wiggins, of the United States of America.

Of all the patent medicines that have been offered to the public, none has ever received the sub stantial endorsement that this grunt medi cine 1ms. There is hardly a drug store in the United StateH that does not keep this great alleviator on its shelves. Thu firsl cause of the success of S. 9. 9. is its merits.

I contracted blood poison two years ago. ; I was treated with Potash and Murotu'y j for over two months by physicians. I thought I was well, but the (ires were only smouldering. The eruption • attic out j anew more violent than belore. A friend ; who had tested it in a similar ease suggest ed S. S. S. i began its use, and com- , nieneed to improve from the start. As 1 he | disease passed away, it left me with mer-| curial rheumatism au the result of taking ] the mercury and potash mixtures. That is also yielding to the influence of Swift's Specific, and will soon lie gone.

My wife, some three or lour years ago, was’trouliled wit.li an ulcer on the side ot her tongue near the tliroul. The pain was incessant, causing loss of sleep and pro ducing great nervous prostration. Ac companying this trouble was rheu- | matisui. It had passed from the 1 shoulders and centered in the wrist j of one hand, site almost losing the use of it. Between tho suffering of tile two, life had grown burdensome. By the use ufa half dozen small-sized bottles of Swift's Specific she was entirely relieved ' and restored to health. This was three years ago, and there has boon no return of i the disease. li. L.

Clark, n member of t he Soutli (Georgia Methodist Conforenee, writes from Tattnall county, Ga.: “One year ago I was i taken with rheumatism, and became id- ! most helpless for over three mouths. All 1 the remedies used seemed to fail until I I commenced the use of Swift’s Specific. 1 I have taken live bottles, and am perfectly sound and well again. 1 would have writ ten sooner, but, waited to see if the euro was permanent. And now-I unhesitating ly recommend S. S. S. as a safe and reliable remedy for rheumatism. 1 have all confi dence in its virtue.” It Ni-vit Falls. I have had blood poison ever since Octo ber, 1885, and obtained no relief from any treatment (and I tried several) until I com menced taking Swift’s Specific. In one month I felt ns well us 1 over had. I also hail a good appetite, and was entirely free from the pains in my shoulder and head, which had tormented me so long. Now all the sores and swellings from my head are gone. S. W. McCahter. No. 7li Madison St. New York, April 30, 1880. In On tit mat or) Itlii-iiiiiiitism. For over two years i suffered intensely with muscular rheumatism. I became almost helpless, and had to be helped out of bed. At times 1 was unable to turn my self in bed, and hail to be handled as ten derly as an infant. My eliest was involved, and the pain was intolerable at times. All the old and well known remedies were exhausted, but no permanent relief was obtained. About a year ago I was induced by a friend to try Swift’s Specific. Thu effect has been magical. My friends scarcely recognize me. My rheumatism is entirely gone, my general health's superb, and I am weighing thirty pounds more than when I commenced taking S. S. S. i am able to attend to all my ministerial work. I am devoutly grateful for my re storation to health, which I owe, under the blessing of God, to Swift’s Specific. J. M. Lowry.
