A Word to YOU, Delinquent.
Patiently we have gone through the
year without troubling you. Times have
been hard on you, but we haven’t. We
tbinkjyou should remember that printers
have, to eat very much the same as
■‘folks.” A printing press devours a
large amount of paper during the year,
and a printer destroys a huge quantity
| °f “provender,'’ and, as we do not wih
to go into bankruptcy, both must be
paid for. The Ordinary has declared
he will not grant the homestead on
credit, and we can t save ourselves un
. less you come to our help immediately.
I VY e know many are in arrears on our
books more from thoughtlessness than
necessity. Too often does the delin
quent say, when lie failed to call as he
intended to do—“ Well, it don’t amount
to much any way, and I can pay it the
nest time J go to that miserable little
town,” and he and a dozen others go
home with easy consciences, little think
ing their carelessness has entailed a loss
of twenty live dollars. Otners again
think their subscriptions are not due
until the year has expired, whereas it is
payable in advance, before you ever get
a copy of the paper.
To one and all we particularly urge
promptness. We must have money.
As soon as we can get them in shape the
accounts of those indebted to us for
more than a year’s subscription will be
placed in the hands of an attorney for
collection. After the 10th of December
we shall, to prevent mistake, place an
elaborate cross, in black, upon the paper
of all in arrears, and keep it there un
til all arrearages are paid.

Our Big Shake Felt Elsewhere.
The earthquake shock felt here last
week was felt throughout the State gen
erally. We have reports of the same
from Washington, Union Point, Atlanta
Augusta, and the country along the
Georgia Eli., at Milledgeville, Macon,
and other points in the State. At Wash
ington City there were two distinct
shocks.
A correspondent at Paoli, Madison
county, mentions that the merriment at
several corn-sh lickings was interfered
with by the shock.
At all points the shock is reported at
about 10 o’clock.
The only solution given by the tele
graph of the cause is a simple dispatch
from San Francisco of a big earthquake
at Fort Yuma.

THE STOGY OP OF A* THOUSAND DOL
LAR BILL.
Baltimore Gazette says: The death of
Josiah Cobb recalls a singular incident
of bis life. About 1829 a colored wo
man named Sarah Ridgely called at Mr.
Cobb's grocery and purchased a small
amount of groceries, giving him a thou
sand dollar bank note in payment,
thinking that it was a one dollar uote.
Supposing that it was stolen, he de
tained the bill and advertised for am
owner .repeatedly; lint no one claiming
it, be invested it in city stock. Several
false claimants appeared for the note,
and it was the subject of several law
suits, which teminated in Mr. Cobh re
taining custody. The history of one of
these claimants is as follows: Mr. Cobb
one day was conversing about the mon
ey with a ma a who made so many par
ticular inquiries that Mr. Cobb mis
trusted his motive, and told him the wo
man was dark and had a large wen on
the side of h i Deck, when in fact she
..as a mulatto, and had had no such
wen. Soou afterward a very dark wo
man with a large wen on her neck came
from the Baltimore aluis house and pro
fessed to be the Sat ah .Ridgely but the
fraud was easily exposed, and up to this
time the woman who left the bank note
has not been heard from. Mr. Cobb al
lowed the money to remain with accu
mulated interest until 1866, when it
amounted to $3,740, and he then px-e
--sented it to the Union Orphan Asylum.

A Difference. —Several years ago
there was a devoted Baptist named Wil
son living in Louisiana, and he was an
ardent Democrat. It was hard to leH
which had the warmest place in his af
fections —his wife, the church, or his po
itidal party. On one occasion he had
several friends spending the evening at
his house, and before they retired he
took down the family Bible to read a
portion of the Scripture and have a
word of prayer. He opened he sacred
volume at the epistle to Titus, where
the apostle says ; “Put them in mind
to be subject to principalities and pow
ers ; to obey magistrates ; to be ready
to do every work.” As it was a habit
with him to comment upon the text as
he went along, when he came to this pas
sage he pulled off his spectacles, and
with a gravity suited to the time and
place, he remarked : “There, my friends,
is where I differ from brother Paul. Mr.
Jefferson says that the true doctrine is
jufjt the reverse of this ; that is, men in
office should always be obedient to the
people, and I agree with the great au
thor of the declaration of independence.
The apostle was no doubt a great preach
er and a good Christian, but it is clear
enough he was no Democrat.”
