AYER’S
Cherry Pectoral.
Ko other complaint? are so insidious in their
attack as those affecting the throat and lungs:
none so trifled with by the majority of suffer
ers. 'The ordinary cough or cold, resulting
perhaps from a trifling or unconscious ex
posure, is often but the beginning of a fatal
sickness. Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral has
well proven its efficacy in a forty years' fight
with throat and lung diseases, and should be
taken in all cases without delay.
A Terrible Cough Cured.
“ In 18571 took a severe cold, which affected
my lungs. I had a terrible cough, and passed
night after night without sleep. The doctors
gave me up. l tried Ayer's Cherry Pec
toral, which relieved my lungs, induced
sleep, and afforded me the rest necessary
for the recovery of my strength, By the
continued use of the Pectoral a perma
nent cure was effected. 1 am now 62 years
old, hale and hearty, and am satisfied your
Cherry Pectoral' saved me.
Horace Fairbuother.”

Croup.— A Mother’s Tribute.
“ While in the country last winter my little
boy, three years old, was taken ill with croup;
it seemed as if he would die from strangu
lation. One of the family suggested the use
of Ayer s Cherry' Pectoral, a bottle of
which was always kept in the house. This
was tried in small and frequent doses, and
to our delight in less than half an hour the
little patient was breathing easily. The doc
tor said that the Cherry Pectoral had
saved my darling’s.life. Can you wonder at
our gratitude? Sincerely yours,
Sins. Km.ua CEnjTEY.”
153 West 128th St., New York, May 16, 1882.
“I have used Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral
in my family for several years, and do not
hesitate to pronounce it the most effectual
remedy for couglis ami colds we have ever
tried. A. J. CRAKE.”
Hake Crystal, Minn., March 13, 18s2.
“ I suffered for eight years from Bronchitis,
and after trying many remedies witli no suc
cess, I was cured by tile use of Ayer’s Cher
ry Pectoral. Joseph Waldek.”
Byhalia, Miss., April 5,1882.
“I cannot say enough in praise of AVer's
Cherry Pectoral, believing as I do that
but for its use I should long since have died
from lung troubles. E. Braghok.”
Palestine, Texas, April 22, 1682.
No case of an affection of the throat or
lungs exists which cannot be greatly relieved
by the use of Ayer's Cherry Pectoral,
and it will aheags cure when the disease is
not already beyond the control of medicine.

What Shall Be Done?—The English
Government knows better what to do than
we do. But, as we view the matter, a lai gs
force Is needed to put down El Mahdi, the
false prophet. He has gained success,
because there was not sufficient force to
resist him.5000 English troops can not cheek
him. Osman Digna’s force is but little
less than 20,000 while -his opponents have
about 5C00. It will be cheaper to send a
sufficient force to overwhelm him. A
massacre at Suakim is feared as the black
inhabitants cannot be relied upon, Osman
Digma expects them to declare for El
Mahdi. 10,000 British troops could settle
the difficulty in a short time, especially as
the Port is opposed to El Mahdi and the
rebels. It is mere foolishness to try to
pacify the rebels by negotiation. A suffi
cient number of men with cannon, shot
and shell Is the only remedy. Fanaticism
never was checked by diplomacy. Gener
al Gordon will be a failure. Tho healing
medicament is shot and shell directed by
brave and civilized troops. El Mahdi says
he intends to conquer the whole world.
Negotiation can do nothing with such a
fanatical fool. One exterminating battle
will send him howling to a desert den and
end the trouble. To allow such a fool
with never more than 12 to 20 thousand
followers to massacre the forces of a legit
imate government under English protec
tion, Is a shame and a disgrace. We don’t
wonder at the English House of Lords
condemning the policy of their govern
ment. Moral saasion with the lowest
down fanatics on the earth! could human
folly beat that! It is the dream of an
Idiot! In this case it has dug the graves
of martyrs who relied upon the intelli
gence of the great English government.
To die lor truth la to die for country and
the world; but to die for folly and stupid
ity leaves only the record of a government’s
disgrace.
DRAPED IN MOURNING.
Tne New York Herald of the 22nd, was
draped in mourning In honor of the brave
and gallant De Long and others under his
command, who braved the dangers of the
northern Arctic seas in the Jeannette, to
conquer its secrets and add to the treas
ures of nautical investigations and science.
The pomp and civic display In Now York,
on the 22nd amid the thunder of cannon
and tolling of bells, was a just tribute to
the gallant men whose lives were sacri
ficed in the frozen Arctic regions to achieve
if possible, new triumphs In the cause re
ferred to. We could do no justice to the
occasion, short of an extended space,
which we cannot afford in exhibition of
the imposing ceremonies over the remains
of Lieut. Commander De Long and his
gallant comrades. Others, Chipp and his
comrades, who were lost, and whose bodies
of course have not been found, repose
in nameless graves in those frozen regions
of the Arctic circle. Heretofore we rela
ted the facts, as far as any could be as
certained and the expedition will find its
place in history as even more disastrous
than those of Franklin and others whieh
preceded it. We have long since thought
that the information obtained of those
bleak and desolate regions and the gains
to science, were insignificant in compart
son with the sufferings and loss of lire of
tho brave and gallant explorers of them.
It seems ever to have been a struggle of
frail morality with nature in Its harshest,
bleakest and deadliest moods.

Tlie British Whip the Rebels,
Near Trinkltat on the 29th of February.
The battle raged all day; and the Arabs
fought stubbornly every inch, dying only
at the bayonet's point or by the deadly
hali. The British were led by Gen. Gra
ham. Baker Pasha fought bravely and
was wounded. The British fought in ob
long squares. They attacked the rebels’
strongholds and drove them out at the
point of the bayonet. Col. Bsrrow was
wounded by a spear in the hands of an
Arab. The courage of these barbarians Is
marvelous. The Shieks went forth empty
handed, to show they bore a charmed life,
and were stricken down with bayonet
thrusts. Col. Burnaby was wounded.
British loss, four officers killed; nineteen
officers wounded. Privates, loss not giv
en, but said to bo about 39 killed and one
hundred and fifty wounded. The rehel
loss at over nine hundred dead—wounded
in proportion. A very severe battle for
such small forces engaged.

the CYCLONE'S STRANGE FREAKS.
Tuesday’s cyclone continues to he the
principal topic of conversation on our
streets, at the club rooms, in the hotel of
fices and around tho family fireside. And
wonderful demonstrations of the power of
the cyclones are constantly brought to
light, and new ones discovered by every
body within six miles of its track. Near
Leeds, yesterday morning a dead hog was
found in the fork of a tree fifteen feet from
the ground, and was recognized as the
property of a negro man, living four miles
from I lie place where the hog was fouud.
Yesterday, a negro woman found on
Mr. Jno. Turner’s place about ten miles
down the Coosa river, and six miles from
tho track of the cyclone, a nice bureau.
It was lying in an old field, and aside from
the mud and scratches on it, was In good
condition. The glass was also on it>
though cracked. It is thought that this
piece- of furniture came from near Cave
Spring, and was probably carried by an
upper current or the cyclono out to where
it was found. Every drawer in the bureau
was locked. The colored woman found in
the same field a white homemade bed cov
er. , »
la Goshen Valley, the cyclone picked ud
a horse, carried it a distance of three miles
and then dashed it to the ground breaking
the animal’s neck and two of its legs.
Pieces of furniture, clothing, etc., have
be-n found all around Goshen Valley and
Cave Spring, two and four miles from the
track of tho cyclone.
All of this goes to show that there must
have been a powerful upper current to the
cyclone, which extended out four miles on
each side of the funnel-like center which
swept the ground dealiug destruction to
everything in its path.—Rome Courier.

CONGRESSIONAL.
Washington, February 25.—Mr. Ransom
offered a joint resolution to appropriate
$100,000 lor the relief of the 9u fferers by the
recent great wind storm in tho Southern
States. He taid over five hundred people
were killed anti many thousand wounded
and the suffering resulting from the storm
was awful.
Hr. Brown supported the resolution in
fitting words. He thought it a case clear
ly calling for the interposition of Congress.
Sir. Pugh also supported it. He thought
that whatever claim was good for the re
lief of the sufferers by the West floods was
good for the sufferers by this wind storm.
The currency bill on tho 25th a vote was
reached and theSeuate passed the curren
cy bill as reported from the Committee on
Finance, with the addition of Mr. Morrill’s
amendment, extending the provisions of i

for tho purpose of issuing notes payable

Mr. Clements, of Georgia, from the Com- j

The Senate, on tho 26th, was engaged in
discussing the Navy Bill. Without com

A lengthy discussion occurred in tho
House on the pleuro-pneumonia bill. No

Mr. Cox asked ttnonimous consent for
the immediate passage of the Senate joint
resolution expressing the appreciation or
Congress and the people of the United
States of th# generous act of her Brittanic

In his efforts to please aii.
Hon. Mark Johnston has been in Spar
ta several days with a drove of Texas do-
nl-s. He ean lasso a man or a horse with
all the grace of a Texas cow boy. We were
glad to meet him again. He is one of the
few men who made an enviable reputa
tion as a member of tho present legisla
ture.
Messrs. Baxter and Wilson, of Sparta,
have sold out to Messrs. Pierco and Cul

WASHINGTON.
From the Mercury.
The cyclone at Davlshoro, blew a piece
of plank end ways through a 4 x 4 inch
lightwood post.
Twenty years ago Savannah had the
largest part of the trade of Washington
county; to-day Macon has it; with ner
money, pluck and energy, she went to
work and took it from Savannah.
The Corn t House narrowly escaped de
struction by lire- It was saved by a gentle
man going into Mr. Langmade’s office to
get a hook, when ho discovered a settee
stuffed with cotton on fire. But for this
fortunate visit, the Court House would
have been destroyed.
Dr. Rawlings, on the 5th of this month
operated for stone upon the little son of
Mr. Rainwater at Mr. Holmes residence
in this county, the operation was skillfully
performed and was a perfect success, the
little fellow who is only eight years of age
i8 now out of damrer and dntnsr well, , Dr
Holliiield and Dr. Thomas, of Baldwin
county, were present and assisted Dr. R
in the operation.

Dr. Robinson returned from a short vis

Miss Lula Cumming, a charming young
lady of Baldwin county, is now visiting
our town, the guest of her aunt. Mrs. Mary
Cumming.
We hear of several citizens out on De
pot street who are engaged in digging pits
on their premises. This is correct we be
lieve, and every family should have one
of its own, for if they do no good, it’s cer
tain they will do no harm ; and, like Mrs.
[Bodies and the coffin—“they are a good
thing to have about the house.”
Bui what use is a pit when the cyclone
does its work in a minute or two? The
best refuge is a quiet conscience, with
faith in, and peace with, God. U. & R.
Republican Campaign in the South.
Some of the Northern Republican papers
advocate the sending of Republican lead
ers to conduct a Republican campaign in
the South. The Chicago Inter Ocean sug
gests the names of Conkiing, Blaine, Ed
munds, Frye, Hoar, Hale, Hawley, Sher
man, Logan, both the Harrisons, Depew
and others.
We say let them come. They will be
treated kindly. Many prejudices wouid
be removed, of course the Democrats
would invite some Northern Democrats to
come down, too, suclt as Sunset Cox, Hew
itt, McDonald, Thurman, Voorhees, Mor
rison, Frank Hurd and others. It would
make it lively in our section and do good
and no harm. If Mr. Tildsn could come
he would ho the old iion among them.
We wouidn’t ask him to growl a hit: but
just show himself among us. Tho treat
ment ho wouid receive, would make him
go back in renewed health.
Ve like the suggestion, and it wouldn’t
bo amiss to send some of our Southern
orators to the North. A free and friendly
fight of this kind would do much to re
move sectionalism and tnako us all feel
more than we do now, that we are brothers
in the same great political association.
It is probable there will be an animated
contest for Solicitor General in the North
ern Circuit, made vacant by the death of
Hon. Geo. F. Pierce.
A dispatch was sent to the State Depart
ment expressing the regret of tho Ernpo-
ror of Russia, personally for the death of
Mr. Hunt the American Minister.
Even tiie candidates forjudges and So
licitors are being announced by their
backers. Why this uisgusting haste, and
j hankering for office?
Some of the papers are even trying to
fixup somebody to heat Joe Brown for
th# Senate.
Some of the papers, out of this district,
are trying hard to get up a race between
Col, Blount and Col. Hardeman. How do
these wiseacres and marplots know that
these gentlemen, will, either of them, be
alive, or want th# nomination in tha 8th
tlatrlft?
A LIFE HOURLY ASSURED.
A resident of Bangor, Maine, writing
to C. N. Ci iltenton. New York, for a sup
ply of Hale s Honey of Hoeehouxd and

months ago a New England life-insurance
company refused to grant Him a policy on
