A Marvelous Story
TOLD IN TWO LETTERS.
FROM THE SON; "SSSASS
“ Qtntltmen: My father resides at Glover,
Vt. He has been a great sufferer from Scrof
ula, and the inclosed letter will tell you what
a marvelous effect
Ayer's Sarsaparilla
has had in his case. I think his blood must
hare contained the humor for at least ten
years; but it did not show, except in the form
of a scrofulous sore on the wrist, until about
five years ago. From a few spots which ap
peared at that time, it gradually spread so as
to cover his entire body. I assure you he was
terribly afflicted, and an object of pity, when
he began using your medicine. Now, there are
few men of his age who enjoy as good health
as be has. I could easily name fifty persons
who would testify to the facts in his case.
Yours truly, W. M. Phillips."
"It is both a
pleasure and
a duty for me to state to you tho benefit I
have derived from the use of
Ayer’s Sarsaparilla.
Six months ago 1 was completely covered with
a terrible humor and scrofulous sores. The
humor caused an incessant and intolerable
Itching, and the skin cracked so as to cause
the blood to flow in many places whenever
I moved. My sufferings were great, and iny
life a burden. I commenced the use of the
Sarsaparilla in April last, and have used
It regularly since that time. My condition
begau to improve at once. The sores have
all healed, and 1 feel perfectly well in every
respect —being now able to do a good day’s
work, although 73 years of ago. Many inquire
what has wrought such a cure in my case, and
I tell them, as I have here tried to tell you,
Ayer’s Sarsaparilla. Glover, Vt., Oct.
21,1S82. Yours gratefully,
Hiram Phillips."
Ayer’s Sarsaparilla cures Scrofula
and all Scrofulous Complaints, Erysip
elas, Ei» ma, Ringworm, Blotches,
Sores, Bolls, Tumors, and Eruptions of
the Skin. It clears the blood of all impu
rities, aids digestion, stimulates the action of
the bowels, and thus restores vitality and
strengthens the whole system.

FROM THE FATHER:
EDITORIAL GLIMPSES.
Col. Wm. R. Morrison and other distin
guished Democrats, returning from New
York are very sanguine of the election of
Gov. Cleveland.
Reports state that caterpillars have
done great harm to the cotton crop in
Lower Egypt and that the crop will be
poor.
Senator A. H. Colquitt was tendered t ho
nomination of the Prohibitionists for Pres
ident and declined. So says the Constitu
tion of Saturday. St. John was then
chosen.
The Democrats claim they will carry
New Jersey by 10,000 majority. If that
state and New York and Indiana vote for
Cleveland and Hendricks tlieirelection will
be certain.
Two bales of new cotton were sent to
market last week, one by Primus Jones of
Dougherty county, the other from John
Chlldre, near Butler, Ga. Who was ahead
is not known.
The crops throughout the country are
described generally to be good. Corn, cot
ton, tobacco and the grains are prolific,
This will affoid great relief in tho dis
tressed conditions of the people.
Bro. Sid Lewis, we "acknowledge the
corn” about the name of Macon’s post
master. We take so little interest in Re
publican postmasters at Macon that we
don’t keep the run of the thing.
The Constitution refers to its Macon ri
val the T. & M. as its “steamed contempo
rary.” Now that we are In the dog days
such language is highly improper, not to
say unseasonable.
Mr. Arch Orme was apparently getting
well when the physicians determined to
probe for tho ball. Many men have lived
a long life with *~bullet in the brain. It
seems that In this case, well enough should
have been let alone.

Notification by the Committee.—
On the 2‘.tth of July the committee
appointed for that purpose, waited
upon Mr. Cleveland and notified
him, of what he knew before, that the
Democratic convention had nomina
ted him for the Presidency, and also
upon Mr. Hendricks in reference to
the Vice Presidency; soon hereafter
we will have their letters of accep
tance and then tho views of the can
didates of both parties will be fully
before the people.
Horrible Murder—a man in Murray
county, named Pink l’ettit, who had been
living unhappily witli his wife for several
years demanded of her to return to him
The Sixth District.—The executive
committee of the sixth congressional dis
trict met at Macon on Wednesday. They
selected Macon as the place for holdin
the district convention, Wednesday, Sep
tember 2d, as the day of assembling.
Electric Light—Poles are being put
up in Augusta for wires of the Fuller Elec
tric Light Company. It Is stated that the
light will be used In tho Union passenger
Station, in the hotels and in several Broad
street stores. It will be an arc light of
five thousand candle capacity.
Attempt at Suicide—Wm C. Culber
son Republican representative in congress
from Kentucky shot himself five times in
Washington on the 30th, at the National
Hotel. He had been drinking hard recent
ly. He is at Providence hospital with his
life hanging by a slender thread.
“Increasing stocks and falling prices
make the business situation gloomy for
many merchants and manufacturers.”
(Chronicle & Constitutionalist.
Yes, very true. Democratic papers pre
dicted this long ago. The Democratic
Platform speaks of it as the result of the
protective tariff.
Hon. N.J. Hammond, has defeated Capt.
Jackson for the nomination for Congress
in the 5th District. Without meaning to
disparage Capt. Jackson as a good and
true democrat, we are pleased at the re
sult. Col. Hammond has been conspicu
ous for ability and useful service as one of
the representatives of Georgia in the Fed
eral Legislature, and the State could not
at this time dispense with his distinguish
ed services.
Hammond Wins.—At the primary elec
tion in Fulton county on Wednesday, Hon.
N. J. Hammond carried the county by a-
bout 200 majority. It was the hottest po
litical fight Fulton ever had. Capt. Jack-
son made a gallant fight; and withdrew
from the contest, when he saw his own
county against him. This gives Mr. Ham
mond a walk over. Col. Hammond must
be a strong man in Fulton to have defeat
ed so popular a man as Harry Jackson,
supported as he was, too, by such influen
tial gentlemen as Judge Hillyer, Henry
Grady, Mr. Inman and mauy other lead
ing citizens. Well, Hammond will do.
Some reports have been started to the
effect that Governor Cleveland’s private
morals have been bad. After giving a wide
circulation to them and doing all the harm
they could the Republicans say such sto
ries are not countenanced by them, and it
is stated that Mr. Blaine sent definite or
ders that all attacks of this kind against
Mr. Cleveland must be discontinued. Dem
ocrats laugh at this and say that he and
the Republican commltteo kept still while
these attacks were being made, and now,
that ail the Injury has been done which
the lies eould accomplish, he tries to dodge
by issuing orders. Mr. Cleveland can af
ford to treat such reports with silent con
tempt.
Sec-8aw—Wlioie Benefit?
There is one benefit derived from base
ball games—and the railroads, that least
need it, are the beneficiaries. Wiien a
“nine” starts out to play another “nine,”
in a sister town or city, they carry along
about a score or more of visiting friends,
male and female rand when the game Is
over, the returning “nine” will carry back
some o! the other "nine” and their friends.
And thus does this see-saw game put the
shekels In the coffers of the bloated bond
holders. It is well that some party reaps
the dimes and the dollars, that will prob
ably put them to a better use than if left
in the hands if the original owners.
Democratic Defection.
The Chronicle anil Constitutional
ist says:
The floating or independent vote
of the country is a potent factor in
deciding elections. We must say to
our friends of the Macon Telegraph
that the prospect is ihat this vote will
drift toward Cleveland and offset any
Democratic defection. Of course,
there is some Democratic defection,
but the hope or expectation is that it
will “grow small by degrees and
beautifully less.”
This is a slight admission that some
Democrats are not satisfied. The
truth is there is a great deal of Dem
ocratic dissatisfaction, but we hope it
will grow less and that every demo
crat will vote for the ticket especially
as the platform is on the tariff for
revenue only. It is the denial of this
by tho democratic protectionists and
their coutinued advocacy of protec
tion, that causes the dissatisfaction.
The Chronicle is running a series of
letters, or communications, in its col
umns now, during the canvass, in the
advocacy of protection. It would be
better for the party if that paper
would suspend their publication un
til after the election. We are not giv
ing advice, but merely expressing an
opinion. There are many democrats
who think as we do.
Shutting Down.
Tiie Chronicle & Constitutionalist
says:
“Our telegraphic advices are to the
effect that August and September
will witness a shutting down of cot
ton manufacture in New England of
vast dimensions. It is computed that
one half of the 8,000,000 spindles in
that section will be silent, within a
week, and remain so for about thirty
days. Though the retail trade is
said to be good, it has not been profi
table to tiie mills, and as buyers are
probably holding off for still lower
prices, tiie manufacturers have evi
dently determined to thwart what
they consider a ruinous condition of
affairs. If this resolve be carried out,
the chances are that prices will ad
vance or at least not be lowered, and
that the surplus will be worked off
before the coming cotton crop shall
begin to come to market freely. We
dare say that this heroic remedy' will
prove to be wise and effective, but it
is hardship for the laboring classes of
the East. If, asDonn Piatt says, no
adminislration can maintain party
supremacy at the polls when wheat
is under DO cents a bushel, how can
the Republicans hope to defeat Cleve
land when affairs at the East are, if
anything, more gloomy than they are
Westward?”
What a concession! We have been
referring to this state of affairs for
some time and we have said but little
stronger than this. It is certainly
bad for the laboring classes, and it
shows that there is no chance for us
at the South to make any headway in
manufacturing. Protection has rais
ed a liidious barrier against Southern
advance. The protectionists have ev
er promised good and unfailing wa
ges to labor and unfailing markets
for the productions of farmers. Their
cobweb veils are failing them now.
A vast number of people who were
duped, can no longer be deceived by
glozing assurances of the blessings
of protection.
THE OLD TOWN.
As viewed by a writer in the Macon
Evening News, {will interest our home
readers:
He says: We arrived at the depot at
9; 15 having made the run of thirty miles
in two hours. This depot and the Central
stands on the very outskirts of this, prob
ably the most historic town in Georgia.
The corporate limits extend further than
in either Macon or Atlanta, and if fate and
circumstances had not removed the Capi
tal to Atlanta, this would have been one of
the most thriving and beautiful of the
Georgia cities. As It Is now, It is a beauti
ful place, but there is a sad air of neglect
and antebellum days clinging to the entire
town. There is not a single manufactory
of any kind In the whole town. But the
society is good and there are a great ma
ny visitors who come here to view the
buildings that are connected so much with
the early history of Georgia and Geor
gians.
The Agricultural College located here is
one of the most nourishing schools in the
State, and has done much for Mllledgo-
ville. The school Is held In the old repre
sentative hall.
Wo went to tho executive mansion,
which has been the place of so many gay
scenes, and the abiding place or so many
distinguished Georgians. It Is a large
brick structure with about twenty rooms.
It was built in 1838 and has been empty
nearly all the time einee 1868, Gov. Jen
kins being the last Governor to occupy it.
J ust a short while before he left about
TWENTY THOUSAND DOLLARS
were spent in improvements on the place.
The walls and ceilings are high, the rooms
large and airy, and the marble mantles
and mouldings are rich and elegant.
The writer of the above probably was in
too great a hurry to visit the Asylum to
see Milledgeville in many or her comely
features. But much he says is true, very
true.
THE STATE LUNATIC ASYLUM.
The Tariff.
Democrats, truth lies in a nutshell
The protective tariff is a robbery
Fallacy lias to be built up. It is a
structure of folly and deceit; a huge
glittering lie; an unsubstantial
dream, which ought to teach a moral
lesson to its fabricators. It is the es
sence of despotism in a free and re
publican government, for it compels
the people to contribute an Immense
sum, one thousand millions of dol
lars, annually, to one business inter
est—the manufacturers of the coun
try. A people who will submit to
that are uufit to be a free people
They are a nation of breathing pup
pets. Do not misunderstand us. Wo
do not believe the people are so de
generate. The teachers are abroad,
the school houses are open, the youth
of the land, who have been under the
clouds of ignorance, are growing up
in the sunlight of intelligence, and
ail the clouds that lowered over our
country will yet be in the deep bosom
of the ocean buried. Then will they
comprehend their inheritance of free
dom, and the shackles, which politi
cal bigots and tyrants would put up
on their limbs, will be broken into
despicable fragments. They will
comprehend better than they now do
the sublime heroism and inspired
works of their revolutionary fathers.

it is shown that Speaker Blaine never de
served his good reputation. He had taken
bribes In another case.” taken
Has the New York Tribune ever shown
that it was mistaken in these unambigu
ous words? How different now arc the
sounds of its political lyre in praises of
Mr. Blaino. The public will ask the New
York Tribune to explain how it could
trample Mr. Blaine in venal dust in 1872
and in 1884 place upon his head tiie laurel
crown! The President of tho United
States, bearing the sceptre of freedom in
his hand, should be an honest man.
No one believes in West Virginia
that Blaine can carry that State.
Mahone set traps for all the colored
votes when he ordered tho appoint
ment of colored trustees for the white
schools of that State. This made the
white vote solid against him.
It is believed at Washington that
Cleveland will be elected. Wo3ee it
stated that Chandler is the only
member of the Cabinet who takes in
terest in Blaine’s election.
Mr. Hendricks will stay in the East
until September. Then he will can
vass Indiana, and other States west.
His popularity in Indiana insures
that State for the Democratic ticket.
The New York Times says: “It is
St. John against demijohn.” It real
ly seems absurd to put up Ex-Gover-
norSt. John as a candidate for the
Presidency on a Prohibition platform.
We do not recollect how many years
prohibitory laws have prevailed in
the State of Maine, but it is well
knowu that the people there can get
as much as they want to drink as ea
sily as they can in New York. We
published, a year ago, the only plan
by which intemperance can be check
ed. Human ingenuity can devise
nothing better. No notice was taken
of it as far as we saw, but in the
course of time when other plans fail
it may reeeive a more favorable con
sideration.
POLITICAL NOTES.
Mr. St. John, the Republican prohibi
tion candidate for President, “will not
down.” And that gives the Blaine folks
trouble.
It is said, ex-Senator Conkilng will sup
port St. John.
Mr. W. H. Vanderbilt, the poor man,
witli a hundred millions, says Grover
Cleveland will be elected.
Editor Dana of the Sun, Is flirting with
editor Reid of the Tribune. The way he
holds his fan to his face when he says
some soothing, sweet solace Into editi r
Ried’s ear, is just too nice.
Judge \ an Auken of New York, an aged
and highly Influential member of the Re-
publican party, says, In giving reasons
why he can’t vote for Blaine: “I cannot
vote for a man whom I do not believe to
be honest, upright and sincere.”
The only congressional district in Geor
gia, in doubt, as to the nominee, is the 4th
where Hon. H. Buchanan, sitting member,
and Hon. H. R. Harris are contestants
The only changes in the present delega
tion will be in the 1st and the 4th districts
provided Mr. Harris dofeats Mr. Buchan
an, In the latter district.
Candidates for the legislature in Geor
gia, are flopping out thick aa blackbirds
from a winter night’s roost.
Gen. Longstreet will quit politics for
the present, and run his hotel tho Pied
mont, at Gainesville, Ga.
Milledgeville ,Ga., Aug. 1st, ’84.
Mr. Editor.—I noticed in to
day’s issue of the Telegraph and Mes-<
senger an attempted explanation,
probably of one of the indisposed
members of the Reese Baseball Club
of Sparta, of the “back-down” of that
nine in the so-called “Test” game be
tween them and the Stars of this city.
In justice to the Stars I think it prop
er to state that at the first visit of the
Reese Club to this city, we played
them with a scrub nine, having at
that time no regularly organized nine.
The scrub nine suffered defeat, but
not the Stars. Many of our present
nine who played on the scrub nine
bore defeat manfully without a single
complaint, but promised them a better
game when we went again. A few
weeks alter we met—we saw—we con
quered. The Reese Club could not
bear defeat, they charged us with
playing non-resident men on them,
unmindful of the fact that their nine
was strengthened at that very time
by players from Oxford. And
now for this last and ‘test’ game which
they refused to play, they seek to jus*
tify themselves by preferring the same
old charges against us of importing
players while they, those model youths
who claimed to have the magnanimi
ty to play a Sparta nine against us,
were only deterred from meeting the
Stars in a match game that afternoon
by the conspicuous absence of Mr.
Hicks, of Pulaski county, whom they
were expecting to play with them and
undoubtedly the game would have
been played but for an accident to Mr.
Hicks compelling him to remain over
in this city! Oh! the blissful innocence
that reposes behind the ‘mask’ and
seeks to ‘strike’ us out or ‘catch us on
the fly!’ What lias grown out of thy
gracious explanation ? Retire thou into
the ‘box’ upon thy ‘Base hit,’ for we
have you at the ‘short stop.’
Very Truly,
August 1st, 1884. A Star.

John S. Davidson

For State
Editors Telegraph and Messenger: To the
press chiefly, and to the physicians of the
State is due the growth of the Lunatic Asy
lum, till it has become deservedly famed
among the best institutions of the kind on
the continent. Nor, after noting its adap
tation to its objects, both in buildings and
management, will any be surprised that
editorials and correspondence often pre
sent it as worthy the admiration and at
tention of everj* Georgian.
Perhaps no period of its history presents
as wise, careful, successful management
as the present. The visitor soon observes
that the superintendent, Dr. Powell, com
bines a knowledge of all the departments
with a precision and delicacy of adminis
tration at once influential and helpful to
the subordinates, and that thewl9dom of
an advanced mind is linked with a ten
derness of heart in him, that almost inva
riably meet in men of rare worth and force.
A few weeks ago with a noted citizen of
Macon we asked the number of patients.
His reply, “Eleven hundred and ninety-
nine,” was emphasized by the entrance on
the instant of another patient, followed
soon by others. So there are over 1,200
patients, about one-third of whom are ne
groes, occupying its rooms, wandering in
its corridors and enttowered grounds,
waiting for the healing dispensed there.
A notable feature is tho dispensary or
pharmaceutic department. To my Macon
friend and myself it presented an intensely
interesting, busy scene. The constantly
passing to and fro of messengers bearing
prescriptions to be filled, the absorbed,
precise eare of the apothecary with each
prescription, the sad faces of lunatics now
and then peering in upon him at work, tho
dropping in of one and another physician
helping him a few minutes, then away
upon the rounds again, excite in tho ob
server though unused to pray, the prayer
“God bless these agents of the State in
their sacred work, and give best results to
the medicines in every ease!”
We were invited to examine a batch of
prescriptions filed apart from the others.
There were many, each for opium. Ex
pressing surprise at tiie number of the
victims of the opium habit, lie replied;
“Yes, tiie people do not begin to know how
large is the number being ruined by it.
There are many here. The doctors pre
scribe for them constantly diminished
quantities, and finally eliminate all opium,
and the patient goes through the day
thinking he lias taken his supply of the
drug he delights in. Many are greatly
improved in body and mind—numbers are
cured.”
1 do not certainly know, but it seems to
me that he is the hardest worked apothe
cary in the State, and that the room, per
haps 15x20 feet, thougli neatly planned is
scarcely largo enougti for the business
neeesarily entailed by 1,200 patients.
During ray stay in Milledgeville I have
heard many delightful expressions from
citizens of the devotion and intelligence
that Col. Whittle, of Macon, one of the
trustees, brings to the important trust.
Tho increase of insanity in Europe and
tiie United States is great, and why? is a
problem with which scientists are busy.
The item appears in the papers that in
California one or evejy 384 persons is in
sane. This state of the question in that
land of wonders of nature, experiences,
disappointments, contrasts and deviltries,
is not a proper exponent of that ot other
States. Shortly alter the establishment
of the first lunatic asylum there, I called
to see its superintendent, who, with all his
good sense, and kindness of heart, had
been insane enough to get himself shot in a
duel; and In the tedium of a bullet in his
body, ho entertained and instructed me
with phases of insanity on “the golden
shore.” Some of these were of the spiciest
and absurdest order, as well as of the
most pa&hetic. The ratio of insanity there
was great. He accounted for it by the In
tensity of life, innovations in accustomed
habits, whiskey and momentary disap
pointment. Though his reasons may not ,
generally apply, yet everywhere where
civilization Is intensifying, the fact of in
sanity’s increase forces itself upon moral
ist and statesman. Botno great errors
enter the life of the enlightened guild of
nations, that startle it with madness. In
continence, whiskey, and opium, ualoid

Death of Arch Orme and the Post Mortem
A special correspondent to the Macon
Telegraph writing from Atlanta Saturday,
August 2nd. says:
Mr. Arch Orme died last night, just two
months and a day since he sent a pistol
ball crashing through his brain. When it
was known the fatal direction of the bullet
friends, relatives and skilled physicians
hung about what they believed to be a
dyiDg bedside. They expected each hour
to be the last; but as the days and weeks
wore on and the wounded man continued
rational—even cheerful—with little appear
ance of suffering, hope dawned in the
hearts of those who loved him. On Mon
day, in ofder to make recovery certain
and perfect, the physicians probed Into
the brain for tho bullet. Since that opera
tion the patient sank rapidly until last
nigtit, when he breathed his last.
To-day a post mortem examination was
held. It was found that tho bullet, enter
ing over aud to tiie rear of the right ear,
passed directly thiough the brain and on
the opposite side glanced backward and
lodgod iu tho right lobe of the brain. There
the bullet had eueysted, a sack forming
around it filled with pus, which would ul
timately have caused hi3 death.
The remains were buried this afternoon
at Oakland from the residence of Mr.
Thomas M. Clark, on Peachtree, an uncle
of tiie deceased.
Arch Orme was a young man of rare
personal attraction, genial, gentlemanly,
whose life seemed full of sunshine, and
wiio carried it along with him. He gath
ered about him scores of warm and devo
ted friends. It was inexpressibly sad that
dark days should so soon have overtaken
one whose life was so bright with promise,
and they must have been dark days indeed
that impelled him to take that life in Ids
own hands.
Very Remarkable Recovery.
Mr. Geo. V. Willing, of Manchester,
Mich., writes: “My wife has b6en almost
helpless for five years, so helpless that she
could not turn over in bed aione. She used
two Bottles of Electric Bitters, and is so
mueh improved, that she i9 able now to do
her own work.”
Electric Bitters will do all that is claim
ed for them. Hundreds of testimonials
attest their great curative powers. Only
fifty cents a bottle at E. A. Bayne’s.
JONES COUNTY.
Clinton, Aug. 2,1884.
Editors Union & Becobder:
Under a call of tiie Democratic Execu
tive Committee a large and enthusiastic
meeting of tiie Jones county Democracy
assembled in this place to-day and was
called to order by tho Hon. H. B. Ridley,
chairman of the committee. Dr. John
Hardeman was selected as permanent
chairman, and John T. Willliains, Sec’y
The chairman having stated the object or
the meeting, counselled harmony and good
will aud declared tiie meeting ready for
'business. Col. E. C. Grier offered a resolu
tion to proceed with tho nomination for a
Representative in the nextGeneral Assem
bly, which was carried, when tiie name of
G. W. Comer was put in nomination by Hon
D. W. Lester, which was carried unani
mously and Comer declared the nominee.
On motion, the Chairman was requested
to appoint a committee of sixteen to select
■delegates to tiie Gubernatorial and other
conventions. Before this committee re
tired, the following is the substance of a
set of resolutions offered by Judge R. T.
_Ro9s, and adopted—endorsing Hon. Jas.
H. Blount and recommending his nomina
tion for Coegtress from the Glh District;
also, approving the administration of Gov.
McDaniel and recommending tho nomina
tion of McDaniel for Governor, N. C. Bar
nett as Sec’y of State, W. A. Wright Comp
troller General, Clifford Anderson for At
torney Gen’J, R. U. Hardeman for State
Treasurer; also ratifying and endorsing
the action of the late National Democratic
Convention at Chicago of Grover Cleveland
and Thomas A. Hendricks. The commit
tee appointed by the chair then returned
and reported the following names as dele
gates ;
Gubernatorial Convention:
E. T. Morton, R. T. Ross, Richard John
son, W. P. Glover and Joe Glawsou.
Congressional Convention:
R. V. Hardeman, E. C. Grier, W. A. Card,
J. A. Middlebrooks, Joe Russell, W. T.

Sen. Convention:
J. R. Van Buren, Thomas Beeland, J. R.
Chiles, Sain Barron, Robert Walker, Henry
S. Gregory, Jno. Bradley, J. A. Walker,
Janies Hurt, L. Balkcom.
Col. D. W. Lester then offered a resolu
tion insisting that our delegates to the
Senatorial convention present the name of
Hon. H. B. Ridley as a suitable candidate
for Senator: this created some discussion
but was finally carried and the delegates
are understood to insist before the con
vention upon the nomination of Ridley.
Hon. H. B. Ridley then asked to be
heard and made some remarks about the
honors. Claimed to be a Democrat and
offered to carry out the wishes of the coun
ty but dodged the liquor and fence ques
tions, the two measures ot most interest
to the county. It has been impossible to
get him to declare himself on these Issues.

Mary Anderson.—A London dis
patch says, it is asserted in Catholic
circles that there is a great likeli
hood of Mary Anderson’s joining the
Carmelite nuns and giving her for
tune and services to the church. She
is a devout catholics. In doing that
the stage would lose one of its bright
est ornaments. It is thought her
family will streniously oppose this
step, as also the managers, dramatists
actors, critics, &o. But no one has
a right to resist her purpose if con
strained to it by a conscientious sense
of religious duty. With her extraor
dinary gifts and popularity nothin
else could induce ner to take such »
step, and with her high sense of mor
al obligation she would doubtless
be happier than in electrifying an au
dience by her theatrical genius and
meeting as she does the most enthusi
astic and rapturous applause.

was given by Mrs. Tabitiia Wright, which
I attended the 29th of July. I arrived at
the school house about 11 o’clock and
found the well accomplished teacher, and
a well prepared school of boys and girls,
a larjje crowd of ladies and gentlemen,
who seemed to feel themselves at home.
About 12 o’clock, dinner was announced,
when.I was invited to tho table where I
found everything nice, and luxuriant, and
you may bet, I served a goodly portion
for y.ywji benefit.

began, and I sought a comfortable scat at

the sweet music and enjoy tho intc. .. .'eg
pieces that were on exhibition. After the
school exercises closed, Mr. L. Carrington
addressed the school witli one of his inter

hear him say that ho had punished himself
so badly with such a good dinner tiiat he
eould not mako a long speech.
There were a great many visitors Irnm

your city were Mr. L. Carrington, Mr.
Hunter, Emmet McComb, Mr. H. Good
