If rr.T.imoRVlIiU, MARCH 8, 1881,
A disease has broken out In New York
city among the horses termed eerebro-spl-
nal meningitis. About ten years ago it kill
ed thousands of horses.
There is a company forming in Chicago,
111, which proposes to purchase a continu
ous railroad line to Port Royal, South Car
olina, and a line of packets from that port
to Liverpool.
300,000 boxes of Florida Oranges have
bean sent to New York this season worth
$600,000. Ten years ago none were sent.
A tract of land 400 miles long and twenty
wide in Florida is covered with orange
groves and their cultivation is constantly
increasing. _
National Banks have sent in about $11,-
000,000 of their circulation to be retired.
This produced a stringency in money and
stocks began to fall rapidly- A panic was
feared but the Secretary of the Treasury
relieved the market and restored confidence
by buying a large number of U. S. bonds
and in that way putting gold and silver
into circulation. ^
The House defeated the Senate bill ap
propriating tho proceeds of the sale of pub
lic lands to the different States in propor
tion to the amount of ignorance. Tho prin
cipal object of the bill was to help to edu
cate the negroes in the South, but the Re
publicans defeated it on the ground that
the South would get tho larger share
of the money. This is another speci

MARSHAL OWEN FITZSIMMONS.
The accounts of this officer have been
thoroughly examined by the department
officials in Washington City and have been
found correct in every particular. The
government is indebted to him several
thousand dollars. Charges made against
him by personal and political enemies were
found to be utterly without foundation.
TRIAL OF COL. E. B. CASH.
For tho Union & Recorder.
Col. E. B. Cash was tried at Darlington,
South Carolina, for the murder of Col. Shan
non in a duel last summer. This trial cre
ated intense Interest and has brought the
practice of duelling prominently before
the public. The trial commenced Feb. 24th;
was continued that day and Feb. 23th. The
case was givon to the Jury at 5:45 r. m.
After an all night session the next day they
were discharged as they failed to agree.
It is understood that the jury stood 8 for
conviction and 4 for acquittal. An acquit-
talwas generally anticipated and the result
Is looked upon as a victory for the anti
duelling sentimeunt of the State.
The jury was obtained without much
trouble and was composed of white men,
the defense challenged all negroes called.
Attorney-General Youngman, and Solicitor
General Dorgan, made speeches for the
State. Col. R. C. Watts, General W. L. T.
Prince, and Col. A. C. Spain spoke for the
defense. The duel grew out of a speech
made by CoL Shannon In a lawsuit in which
the wife ol Col. Cash, was interested. Col.
Cash thought that Col. Shannon’s remarks
reflected upon the honesty of his wife. Col.
Shannon disclaimed any reflection of the
kind. Efforts were made to settle the dif
ficulty but finally failed. The duel was
fought. Col. Shannon was killed, leaving
a wife and a large number of children. The
facts of tha duel w ero testified to by eye
witnesses, some of whom swore that Cash
was urged by his son, just beforo the prin
cipals took their positions, to bo certain
to kill Shannon, and he replied he would
do It as sure as there was a world.
Tho defense introduced no testimony.
The defense claim that custom, public
opiulou and tho example of eminent met:
had always sustained the practice of duel
ling in South Carolina and that Col. Cash
should not bo made a victim to the change
of public sentiment. The prosecution charg
ed that the jury should follow the law and
tho evidence and if the case was made out
they should convict. Judge Pressley charg
ed the jury that the duelling was a relic of
barbarism and it was a false sense of honor
that lead a man to engage in one. It was
unjust because a cool man had theadvan
tage over an excitable man. No man could
voluntarily fight a duel and claim he act
ed in self-defense. Ho solemnly charged
the jury, before God and man, that accord
ing to law, to kili a man in a duel was mur
der. The foregoing is a brief outline of the
case.
We believe that duelling is an evil and a
relic of barbarism. Public opinion In this
country is rapidly changing on the subject
and duelists are.rather looked upon in a
qulxsffic light than a heroic light. Duel
ling is unfair. With pistols a small man
has the advantage over a large man, a cool
man over one excited, an expert over a
novice. It Is unjust because the man in
tho right is just as apt to be killed or
wounded as the man in the wrong. It is
sinful and foolish because frequently it
grows out of trivial Insults, men are killed
who leavo dependant families and are ush
ered from the field of honor Into the pres
ence of God. But we cannot view it as
murder. Some of the best, gentlest and
noblest of men havs engaged in this prac
tice. Let us recall a few. Clay, Jackson,
Wm. H. Crawford, Hamilton. Wm. Cum-
mlng, John Forsyth, George McDuffie, B.
F. Perry, S. S. Prentiss and many others
have engaged in duels. Henry A. Wise,
Brown, Stephens, Toombs, and-others have
subscribed to the code. These men were
not murderers, but they were among the
most honorable and honored of oar coun
trymen. Andrew Jackson killed a man in
a duel. He was afterwards President. Can
It be supposed that the people of the Uni
ted States would elect a murderer Presi
dent? Duelling is war on a small scale,
between two individuals rather than two
nations. With this exception: In a duel
both parties have an equal showing so far
as circumstances admit But in war every
advantage is taken. It Is considered a clev
er stroke of strategy to surprise your ene
my, to steal a march upon him, to sur
round his army and crush It by superior
numbers. Great glory Is obtained in war.
We believe the law, making duelling a fel
ony and killing in a duel murder, should
be abolished. First because It Is absurd and
Is looked on by people as murder in about
the same way that we look upon Lee and
Davis and Stonewall Jackson as traitors.
No jury will convict under it and the law
defeats the very object for which It was
made, to punish and prevent duelling. The
practice of duelling can and will be brought
to an end by public opinion. It has almost
entirely disappeared from Great Britain
where not many years ago it was greatly
In vogue. The North has abandoned it and
the South Is' rapidly following In her foot
steps. A law making duelling a misde
meanor, punishable by fine or Imprison
ment, could and would go a great way
in putting a stop to this bloody, cruel and
foolish habit, far more becoming to wild
Indiana and savage barbarians than en-'
lightened men basking in the noonday
light of modern Christianity and dvtllza-
zatlon. Citizxk.

member of a Fraternal Society in the
world. His pen has been busy, and his
voice has been heard in the cause of Hu
manity and Fraternity for more tiiau a
quarter of a century—William Henry
Barnes. Like most ominent men in our
Orders, he has been the “workman” of his
own fortune. He was born in Boston, Mas
sachusetts, September 22, 1834. In 1340,
his father moved to Mfiledgeville, Georgia,
and became connected with the Federal
Union newspaper (of which he is still one
of the owners). At the age of eight years
the subject of our sketch became an ap
prentice In said office, and remained there
for thirteen years, acquiring in tho State
Printing Office, a thorough practical edu
cation as compositor, pressman, proof
reader, foreman, etc. At tins time he be
came of age, and on his twenty-first birth
day (September, 22,1855,) was initiated Into
Sylvan Lodge, No. 4, I. O. O. F. Shortly
afterward Governor II. V. Johnson appoin
ted him to a position on the Western and
Atlantic railroad, at Atlanta, Goorgia.
Here ho became identified with Central
Lodge, No. 28, which was in a feeble condi
tion, and gave it and tho Order new life in
that city. The best proof of his early ef
forts Is shown in tho fact that there are
now an Encampment and several Lodges
(one of which is named for him, Barnes’
Lodge, No. 55,) in that city, and one of Ills'
early and faithful associates, Luther J.
Glenn, is now Grand Stro of the Order. In
Old Fellowship his ability was immediate
ly recognized. He was elected Representa
tive to the Grand Lodge of Georgia in 1859;
D. D. G. M. in 1860; Deputy Grand Master
in 1861; Grand Master iu 1862; Grand Pat
riarch in 1863, which office ho held until
tho close of tho war In 1S65, when ho was
elected Representative to G. L. U. S. He
advanced as rapidly in railroad matters,
and soon attained a prominent position as
General Agent for his own and connecting
lines, and for ten years was regarded as
one of the most competent and popular
railroad men of Atlanta. From boyhood
his elocutionary, musical, and imitative
taient have been remarkable, and from the
beginning to the closo of tho war, as op
portunity presented, he used these talents
for the benefit of the poor and needy, the
destitute and those hospitals. He organiz
ed an association of ladles and gentlemen
for this purpose, and their efforts resulted
in the obtaining and distribution of nearly
$150,000 for the above charitable objects. At
the end of the war in 1865, like thousands
of others, ho found his property, money,
etc., all melted away, and of what was once
a large fortune, scarce a vestige remained.
But his inherent onorgy sustained him in
the trial. He moved his family to Massa
chusetts, and for a year or two located in
Boston. Here the talent which had been
so often used for the entertainment or
friends and for the benefit of humanity, be
came a source of income, and his engage
ments to lecture were numerous and re
munerative. In 1867, he moved to New
York city and became connected with the
American Old Fellow office, also traveling
and speaking in various lecture courses
throughout the East. In 1870, in connec
tion with John Medole, P. G. M., and Ed
win S. Ralphs, P. S. M., ho founded the
Heart and Hand, one of the most popular
and able fraternitv journals that has over
been published. It was an instantaneous
success, and was continued until 1877, when
In tho course of traveling engagements,
Mr. Barnes came to California in May.
Pleased with this coast, meeting a royal
welcome, finding his loved American Odd
Fellowship so practically illustrated in
this State, which he visited extensively, he
determined to make his residence here, and
the Heart and Hand was discontinued at
the end of the seventh volume, honorably
and creditably to all concerned. For a few
months he wa_s associated with the Xcir
Age of this city; but in June, 1878, was en
gaged by tho Francisco Call Company. He
prepares the well known “Fraternal Socie
ties” department of that paper, and Is also
editor of the TVeekly Call. He is also Sec
retary of the Veteran Odd Fellows' Associ
ation, and Secretary of the Pacific Coast
Press Association. Like Past Grand Mas
ters Jordan and Taylor, he is emphatically
a “self-made” man. Without the surround
ings of scholastic education, the printing
office and the Lodge room have been his
tutors; these coupled with observation,
reading, and experience, have placed him
where ho stands to-day. It is no dispar
agement to any other to say that as a pre
siding officer and a brilliant and eloquent
speaker, he has no superior on this coast.
Since his residence in California he has
liberally used his talents to aid all worthy
objects. The “Authors’ Carnival,” Chur
ches, Sunday schools, Relief Associations,
Temperance, and Fraternal societies, have
called upon him ad libitum for assistance,
which has ever been generously bestowed.
To use a common expression, he always
“draws a house.” and can hold any audi
ence on any occasion, possessing, as he
does, a versatility of talent that oan pro
nounce either eulogy or oration, or with an
ecdote and song delight Ids hearers.
These peculiar qualities have attracted
the notice of political parties, and efforts
have been made to induce him to enter the
political field as a speaker. This for years
he has positively and imperatively declin
ed, holding the missions of his Order to be
much higher and more for the common
good of the people.
He is at present a member of Unity
Lodge, No. 131, and of Oriental Encamp
ment, No. 57,1.0.0. F. As a member of
our young Order, tho A. O. U. W., his histo
ry is of necessity brief. Ho was one or
the charter members of Valley Lodge, No.
30, instituted in April, 1378. The remarka
ble increase of this subordinate entitling it
to a number of Representatives to the
Grand Lodge, he was elected from tho floor
as one of that number, and was present at
tho first Session of California as an inde
pendent jurisdiction, in July, 1378, and was
appointed Its first Grand Lecturer, and
elected as one of tho corporate directors;
he also was one of the Representatives of
No. 30 to the San Jose Session of . 1879;
also at Sacramento, 1880, when he was, elec
ted Grand Foreman. At the rocont ses
sion just closed iu this city, he was unani
mously cboeeh as Grand Master Work
man.
Since his connection witli this Order ho
has been an active worker, and in public
and private labored , diligently for its ad
vancement. Familiar with ita history, leg
islation, and its”Work,” his visits and ad
dresses are always welcome, and public
halls, as well as Lodge-rooms, are crowded

“A young friend of mine was cured of
an insatiable thirst for liquor, which had so
prostrated him that ho was unable to do
any business. Ho wiis entirely cured by
tho use of Hon Bitters. It allayed all that
burning thirst; took away the appetite for
liquor; made his nerves steady, and he has

have often noticed that, when near neigh
bors are well off and have no need for mutu
al help, there Is very seldom any friend
ship between them; there is more apt to be
jealousy and competition.
Our parents being such good friends, It
naturally resulted that Mollie and I follow
ed their example. We went to school to
gether, read together, played together;
and somehow, when Mollie was eighteen
and I was twenty we agreed to travel to
gether all our lives, and were very happy
in that arrangement; in fact, noother would
have seemed right or natural, either to us
or our parents.
From the earliest days of my boyhood I
had a fondness for tho water, haunting tho
palatial steamboats that floated on tho great
Mississippi river, on whose banks nestled
the city iu Which we dwelt, at the period to
which I am about to refer. I had just se
cured a position as pilot on a small freight
steamer.
it was not much of a position, to be sure,
nor was there much of a salary attached to
it; but, small as it was Molilo and 1 decided
that we could make it answer for two peo
ple, neither of them extravagant or unreas
onable; besides which I had hopes of bet
ter times to come, as I had received words
of commendation from my employers, and
promises of speedy promotion.
So, early one bright raorniug, having ob
tained a day’s leave of absence, Mollie and
I were married, and stopping into a car
riage I had hired for the occasion we start
ed off, having decided on a day’s excursion
to a celebrated cave near by, this being all
the wedding trip we could allow ourselves,
not that we cared in the least, however; wo
were too happy too bo in tho least disturb
ed by any shortcomings of sum or purse.
M e had scarcely driven beyond our own
street when wc were brought to a half. A
messenger whom I recognized as belong
ing to our steamboat'company hailed me.
“Hore’s a note to you from the superin
tendent.”
Thus it ran: *
“Am sorry to have to recall your leavo
for to-day, but you must immediately go
on board the Mobilia, which Is ready to
start up tho river. The pilot is too iUto at
tend to duty, and you are appointed to take
his place for the present.
“There goes our wedding trip all to
smash,” said I as Mollie read the note.
“Why so?" she asked.
“You see I must go into tho pilot house
of the Mobilia.” •
“Very well,” she replied. “Wo shall
just go up the river instead of to the cave.
Drive on, Boh; take us down to the wharf
in state.”
“But you can’t go In tho pilot house with
me, little goose.”
“Of course, not; but I can sit on the deck
outside,” laughed Mollie, “and we can cast
languishing glances at each other.”
And so it oamo to pass that I took posses
sion of the Mobila’s pilot house, my heart
glowing with-love and pride; with love, for
there,.just below me, on the little forward
deck, sat my-sweet bride; with pride, be
cause the Mobilia was one of the finest
of tho beautiful floating palaces of tho
Mississippi, and to pilot auen a one had for
years been the height of my ambition.
The steamer was fitted up with a double
cabin, one above the other; the upper one
opening upon a small deck, reaching out
towards tho bow, near the centre of which,
on a raised platform, was placed tho pilot
house. The deck was always occupied
by passengers, and this -morning It was
particularly crowded, for tho boat was
heavily laden with people taking advan
tage of this beautiful weather to make an
excursion up the river.
Some rough fellow jostled against Mol-
lie’s ehaii after a while and she rose and
passed down into the cabin, “to get a drink
of water,” she whispered to mo as she
passed; but I suspect it was to prevent the
bursting of the thunder clouds she saw
gathering on my brow.
I saw the insolent fellows made no at
tempt to fellow my dear one, so I gave my
self up to my happy thoughts, and look
ing out on the far distant peaceful shores
of the great river, over.whose placid bo
som we wore moving so swiftly, there rcso
from my heartaglad silent, hymn of rejoic
ing.
But suddenly a cry broke from the cabin
behind me that effectually changed tho cur
rent of my thoughts.
“Fire! fire! fire! a horrible cry at all
times, but most horrible of all when it rings
forth in tho midstof gay, unsuspicious hun
amis floating in fancied security in tho
midst of tho waters.
An instant’s awe-struck silence succeed
ed that awful cry, and then 300 voices of
men, women and children united in fearful
heart-rending shrieking for help.
“Fire! fire! fire!”
Aye! there was no mistake about it, nor
false alarm. No one could toll how It had
commenced, but there It was creeping along
the roof of the upper cabin with the deadly
flames greedily lapping up every scrap of
awning and curtain they could find upon
their way, ever and anon darting long
tongues of llame down the floor to clasp
the light chairs and tables and settees in
their fiery embrace. •
As well seek with a sieve to scoop up the
waters of the great river on which the Mo-
bilia floated, as to try to subdue tile roar
ing, devouring enemy that bad seized upon
the’ill-fated steamer.
Tho people darted down from the glazing
upper cabin to the' forward dock below,
where as yet the foe had made but little
headway, and there our brave captain—who
was tiiat rara artt “the right man in the
right place”—succeeded In partially quel
ling the panic.
“Keep quiet,” he ordered, “keep quiet,
and stay, just whero you are, or I will not
answer for tho lives of any of you. Tho
steward will provide every ono of you with
life preservers, but there is no reason for
any person to go overbroard—not yet a-
whiie, at any rate, unless suicide is desired
Keep quiet, I say. Pilot, head straight for
the land, half a mile ahead.” We were at
least twico that distance from the main
land on either shore. “Engineer, put on all
steam—crowd her on! Wo will run a race
with the foul fiend who has boarded tho
Mobilia."
There was an Instant’s pause; and then,
witli a groan and a surge, with the timbers
creaking and straining, and the windows
rattling, ami as though ill mortal terror,thfl
Mobilia gathered herself up to run her Jast
race.
Each passing moment the flames crept on
and on, never pausing in their terrible
march, downward, so that there was as yet
but little danger to the panic stricken crowd
on the lower deck.
But tho pilot house was directly in the
track of the flames, and already their ad
vance guard was beginning to sarround
me, singing my hair and eyebrows.
Suddenly there was a murmur among the
people below ami the next instant a light
form flew up the ladder leading to the little
deck by the pilot house, Mid beforo I could
say a word, my precious Mollie had thrown
open the door, and, closing It again, stood
at mysido.
“Mollie, Mollie!”’ I cried. “For heaven’s
sake go back, go back! Don’t you See how
the flames aro creeping towards us here?
Go, go, my dearest, my own true wife!
Don’t unman mo by making' mo foar for
you. Go down Whero I can feel that you
have a chance of safety.”
“Rob Thorne!” she exclaimed, with her
eyes looking straight Into mine, “Am I your^
wife?” ' ’. ' .
"Surely, surely, thank God!” I fluttered.
“But go, go!”
“My post is hero, just as much as yours
is,” she answered, firmly. “I will stay
here, Rob, and ir you die I will die, too.
We will make our wedding trip together,
mv dear husband, even If it be into the
next World. Keep to your duty, arfft never
mind me, Rob. There Is hope for us yet,
and if tho worst comes, why”—and a grave,
sweet smile crept round her Ups—“we are
stil} together, dear love.-’
I saw it was no use to urge nerany more,
and besides, something swelled In my
throat;.so I just gripped the wheel bar^
and looked right ahead, though everything 1
looked veijtoHm just then; and my devo
ted claiHmSjfelood calmly at my side,
watchingdffle ilaim-s that ware creeping

ornc^* shouted the captain, “come
K»ikhr her and yourself over the
V<Hl ■’Patch vom Yon cannot stay
ere any longer. Wo are very near the
shore now, and the rest we’ll take our chan
ces on.”
It was an awful temptation. I know
that, did I follow the captain’s advice both
Moliie and I would be safe, for I was a
good swimmer, and should the boat not
roach tlie shore, I could save her and my
self; but then if I did this, would I not de
liberately expose every one of the throe
hundred souls on board to destructlou?
True, tho boat might keep to her course du
ring the short space remaining to be pass
ed merely from the impetus of her ap-
proach, hut again she might not—-and
then?
I looked at my dear wife inquiringly.
“Stick to your post, Rob!” she snid.
‘‘No, sir!” I shouted back. "I shall stick
to my post; I shall stay here till 1 run her
clear on tho shore or die first!”
“My bravo Rob—my noble Rob!” mur
mured Motile.
But alas for my devoted Mollie! alas for
me! Not (lie pilot, house only hut the entire
deck around it was now surrounded by
llaiues. It was too late to lower ourselves
to the deck below! The railing was all
ablaze.
My arms, released from their guardla
ship over tho wheel, clasped Mollie close
to my heart; but my eyes and brain were
bus y seeking for some mo le oT escape
from death that seemed each instant more
certain.
All at once my eyes rested on the paddle-
box. It had not taken fire yet; tho Hying
spray find saved it. 1 had only to dash
across the tlamo-swept deck and lling open
a littlo door in its side, which afforded
ready access to the wheel, to lower my pre
cious charge to the water beneath in safe
ty. No sooner thought of than done.
“Take my hand, Mollie,” I said, “and run
with me. Wo shall lie saved, after all.
Wrap your shawl across your mouth.
Now, now—run!”
Leaping down on tho deck, we sped, hand
In hand, to the paddle box. I dashed open
tho little door, and, pushing Molly Inside,
passed in myself, and drew the door close
again, shutting out the eager flames,
whose angry roar pufsued us as wo drop
ped gently down into the shallow water
and crept from beneath the wheel.
Our appearance was hailed with a shout
of delight and relief, for all had given us
Up as lost, and wo must have been, but for
tho heaven-inspired thought of the wheel-
house.
Now that the danger was over, poor lit
tlo Mollie fainted; and no wonder. Bui.
she soon came out all right; and as the
people began to find out that the “bravo
little girl,” as they caked her, was really a
bride of only a few hours, and that we were
oh our wedding trip, there was a regular
ovation, followed- up by nine deafening
clu'ers.
The island upon which the Mobilia bad
been beached was low, sandy and uninhab
ited, altogether not an inviting place for
300 people, without a particle of shelter, to
pass half a day upon; yet even in tills
plight there wore few grumblers in our
midst.
There was no room in our hearts for any
feeling but that of thankfulness for our
preservation from a fearful death; and af
ter the peril of the last hour or twoitseem-
ed a small matter to wait patiently for the
coming of the relief boats that we knew
wore sure to arrive before many hours went
past.
Though some miles from any large city,
we knew that the burning steamer must
have been seen from the farm houses scat
tered sparsely along the river bank, and
that from these notices of the disaster
woull be sent to the nearest town. And so
it was. Before nightfall several small
steamboats arrived, and after that but a
few hours elaspe 1 before we found our
selves safely at home and our adventurous
wedding trip at an end.
But the results were not ended by any
means. The terrible nervous state I had
endured combined with the severe burns on
my face ami hand throw me prostrate on a
bed of sickness.
When I was able to report for duty again,
two weeks later, I learned that a noble gift
from the ilobillia’s grateful passengers—
no less a sum than $2,000—lay in tlie bank
awaiting my order. Not only this, but the
steamboat company had voted me a gold
medal and the appointment of pilot of the
finest steamer on their line.
Years have gone by since my brave wife
and I had so nearly journeyed out of the
world on our wedding trip. From pilot I
have come fo be captain and part owner of
one of those beautiful floating palaces that
used so to excite my envy; but never do I
pass without a sickening shudder the little
island where the Mobilia won the last
race-a race of fire against steam, of life
against death.
“Huntin’ yer wife, you tell me!
Well, now dog gone my skin !
She thought you dead and buried.
And then bestowed her fin
Unqji another fellow!
Just put it here, old pard!
Some fellow strikes the soft things
But you hive hit it hard.
“I’m right on to your feelin’s
I know how it would be
If my own shrub slopped over
And got away from me.
Say, stranger, that old sage hen,
That’s cookm’ thar Inside,
Is warranted the finest wool,
Aud just a square yard wide.
“I wouldn’t hurt yer, pardner,
But I tell you, no man
Was ever blessed as I am
With that old pelican.
It’s goln’ on some two year
Since she was j’inud to me.
She was a wirtder prior.
Her name was Sophy Lee—
"Good God! Old man, what’s happened?
Her? She? Is that the one?
That’s her? Y’our wife, you tell me?
Now reach down for your gun.
I never injured no man,
And no man me, but squealed.
And any ouo who takes her
Must do It d—d well heeled!
"Listen! Surely. Certainly
I’ll lot you look at hei.
Peck through the door, she’s in thar.
Is that your furnitur’?
Speak, man! Quick! Y’ou’ro mistaken!
No! Yours! You recognize
M v wife, your wife, the same one?
Tho man who says so, lies!
“Don’t mind what I say, pardner,
I’m not much on the gush,
But this thing come down on mo
Like fours upon a flush.
If that's your wile—hold—steady !
_ That bottle. Now my coat.
She’ll think ine dead as you were.
My pipe. Thar. Pm afloat.
“But let me leave a message.
No; toll her that I died.
No, no; not that way, either.—
Just tell her that I cried.
It don’t rain much. Now, pardner.
Be to her what I’ve been.
Or by tho God that hates you,

When a pretty Irish girl is, stolen away

Why is tho earth like a blackboard? Be

Why does a lady on paying too much for

She tliinks it a little dear.
SCHOOL BOOKS ADOPTED
For Baldwin County Schools.
In accordance with law, the County
Board of Education of Baldwin County,
did, on the 20th day of July, 1880, adopt a
series of text-books to be used in the school?
of Baldwin county. The resolution adopt
ing the books contains the following clause:
“The law demands absolute uniformity
of books in each county, and now that this
uniformity can be secured in Baldwin coun
ty WITHOUT COST, (he Board has re
solved to Require It, and to insist on tho
displacement of all other books.”
In view of the fact that there has been
great and just complaint on the part of
patrons of schools on account frequent and
often unncccessary change of text books,
we think it our duty, as the guardians of
tho educational interests of the people of
thqcounty, to insist upon a uniformity of
text-books, and ^specially so, since this
much desired uniformity can be scoured
without cost to patrons or teachers.
Wo. have made arrangements with tho
Publishing House of Ivison, Blakemau,
Taylor & Co., to furnish for live years,
tho following books at stipulated prices,
(elsewhere published in this paper,) to-wit:
New Graded Readers, Swinton's Word
Primer, (small speller,) Swinton’s Word
Book of Spelling, Swinton’s Word Analy
sis, Webster’s Dictionaries, Swinton’s Ge
ographies, find Swinton’s U. S. Histories.
In order to save cost to patrons, tho pub
lishers have very liberally agreed to furn
ish theso books in even exchange for old
boobs of similar grade, in actual use In the
Bchools, book for book. Of course it is not
just to ask this even exchange longer than
is necessary to make the exchange, which
can be done for a limited tiraoby bringing
the old books, to either Mr. E. A. Bayne’s or
John M. Clark’s drug stores, where tho
adopted books will be furnished. Wo pro
pose to insist upon this uniformity in text
books, because the law requires us to do
so. Wo ask, therefore, the cordial co-oper
ation of teachers and patrons and all Dis
trict School Trustees. Let uniformity be
onco secured and we pledge ourselves to its
permanency.

Dn. J. Bradfiet.d—Sir: My daughter
1ms b(>on suffering for many years with
that dreadful affliction known as Female
Disease, which lias cost me many dollars,
and notwithstanding I had the best medi
cal attendance, could not find relief. I have
used many other kinds of medicine with
out any effect. Iliad just about given her
up, was out of heart, but happened in the
store of TV. W. Eckler several weeks since
and he knowing of my daughter’s affliction
uersunded me to try a bottle of your Fe
male Regulator. She began to improve at
once. I was so delighted with its effect
that I bought several more bottles.
The price $1.50 a bottle, seemed to be
very high first, but I now think it tho
cheapest preparation on the globe, and
knowing what I do about it, if to-day one
of mv family was-suffering with that aw
ful disease I would have it if it cost $50 a
'bottle, for I can truthfully say it cured
my daughter sound and well, and mvsolf
ami wife do most heartily recommend
your Female Regulator to be just what it
is recommended to bo.
