A distinguished New York minister has
been telling his congregation that over
work kills the soul. Perhaps it does, but
very few people comparatively overwork
themselves. If he will preach about the
sin of Idleness he will strike twenty guilty
persons where he strikes one when he
preaches against overwork.
There has been a rebellion in the Ken
tucky State College at Lexington. Sev
eral students were expelled two for
drunkenness, one lor lying and one for
obstinate disobedience. The strangest
thing about the affair was that the (ac
uity maintained discipline without a re
sort to force. Not a single revolver was
fired.
The principal ot the academy at Little
Falls, N. Y., was shot and killed Sunday
by a physician of that town. The doctor
could not get a chance to put the Pro

a pistol. The consequence was the peo
ple came very near lynching him.
While the English are laying a pipe
line under the sand across the desert,
why should they not construct an under

as well as the bullets of the rebels.
Mark Twain will now know how to sym
pathize with bis triend Cable, llis last
book. “The Adventures of Huckleberry
Finn," is meeting with adverse criticism
on all sides. Its humor is pronounced of
a very low order, and it : s called a pitiable
exhibition of irreverence and vulgarity.
The book is considered neither smart nor
interesting.
Bridgeport, Conn., was put on its ear
the other day by a paragraph in a New
York paper which alluded to several of
the best ladles in the city as “society
wrecks.” The next day the New York
editor swore by his long ears that he
wrote it “society workers,” and one
more intelligent proof-reader went to join
the anarchists.
The horse-shoe craze will probably be
eclipsed before very long by the rabbit
foot craze. Semi-superstitious people in
some parts of the country are already
“gone” on the subject. In Alabama the
bovs send rabbits’ feet, neatly tied to
gether with blue ribbon, to their sweet
hearts. It is almost time for the buckeye
to come in fashion again.
Senator Edmunds, having pronounced
the doom of the grand old party, can now
lay aside his official black cap and retire
to his seat in the Senate. It is said that
he has made a good many enemies aud no
friends while presiding over the Senate,
and that he is crustier than ever. It is
dithcult to decide whether his acerbity is
caused by disappointed ambition or indi
gestion.
By looking back over the tiles of any
first-class daily paper the opinion of Gen.
Grant’s physicians as to his condition
only a few weeks ago may be found.
They then stated that he did not have
cancer of the tongue and was in no dan
ger. People now wonder whether that
was their honest opinion or whether the}
knew to the contrary. In either case it
is difficult to reconcile their statements
with a high degree of piofessional knowl
edge and character.
The Western Union Telegraph Com pany
has not yet taken any steps towards com
plying with the law requiring wires in
New Y ork city to be put under ground by
Nov. 1. 1885. The officials of the company
contend that the law cannot be enforced,
because it requires things to be done that
are not practicable. “No suitable plan,”
they say, “has yet been devised by which
telegraph wires thus placed can be made
to work satisfactorily. In Germany they
use the cable, and in England aud France
gutta percha, but here both of these
methods are impracticable. The law
which requires us to put our wires under
ground is unconstitutional, and if it is to
be enforced the controvery will have to be
SC-Uled by the courts.”
The Hoar and the Man.
The Democratic party to-day, after
being out of power for twenty-four years,
will resume control of the government.
What wonderful changes have taken
place in the country in that comparatively
brief period! What thoughts will crowd
the minds of those who witness the cere
monies of Cleveland’s inauguration who
were present at Lincoln’s inaugura
tion r The great civil war, the destruc
tion of the institution of slavery, the
struggle of the South against carpet-bag
rule, the growth of the country in wealth
and population, these things and many
more will present themselves to the
minds of thousands who will listen to the
inaugural address to-day.
From contemplating the great events
that mark the history ot the country since
the last Democratic President occupied
the White House, attention naturally will
be turned to the man who has been chosen
to lead the Democratic party on its return
to power.
But little is know n about him. He is.
comparatively, an untried man. He was
scarcelv known outside of his State a year
ago, and was hardly known in his own
city when his party lost control of the
government. He is known, however, to
be a man of 6trong common sense and
sterling integrity. Whatever he has been
called to do as a private citizen or as a
public servant he has done well. As be
has risen from one position to another he
has always proved himself equal to the
responsibilities and duties which have
devolved upon him. He is a conscientious
man, aud strives to do the best he can in
whatever position ha is placed. He has
confidence in himself, aud that will help
him to bear the burdens which will press
heavily upon him.
He doubtless realizes that the task be
has undertaken is a great one, and that
much is expected of him. On him will
depend, to a large extent, whether the
Democratic party will remain in power,
or will be forced to retire at the end of
four years.
The party must be held together and
strengthened and faction fights must bo
prevented. The new President will lie
urged to do many things that he cannot
do and be just to the country and fair to
his party. He must refuse to do these
things in a way that will not weaken his
support or cause dissensions among his
party friends.
He is expected to lead in making re
forms. Few realize how great the need
tor reforms is. It is impossible to point
to any branch of the public service where
there is not extravagance, thriftlessness
and rottenness. In the twenty-four'years
of Republican ruie the number of govern
ment employes has increased from a few
thousand to over a hundred thousand, and
the expenditure ot public money from
s.■■>(>.ooo,ooo a year to more than $300,000,000.
There are thousands of persons in the
public service for whom there is no use
and millions of money are annually
wasted. It will require a strong, brave
man to strike at the evils that exist in the
government as it is now administered.
If Mr. Cleveland proves himself to be a
true reformer, and if be is able to brave
the opposition he is sure to meet in re
forms he may undertake, he will not only
endear himself to the people, but will
insure the Democratic party a long
lease of power. He will have no diffi
culty in finding able assistants in what
ever good work he may attempt. If he
fulfills the promises that his brief public
career has made for him the best elements
of his party will gather around him and
aid and cheer him in giving the country
an administration to which the Demo
cratic party will point with pride, and
which will meet with the approval of the
whole country.
The Nicaraguan Treaty Again.
Mr. Frelinghuysen's letter defending
the action of the State Department in ne
gotiating the Nicaraguan treaty, wliich
has just been made public, contains sev
eral j glints that are worth more than a
passing notice. It is probable that the
defeat of the treaty in the Senate was
largely due to the belief that it violated
the flay ton-Bulwer treaty.
To this point Mr. Frelinghuysen de
votes considerable attention. He con
tends, first, that this country is no longer
bound by the Clayton-Bulwer treaty, be
cause England violated it years ago by
converting a settlement of licensed
wood-cutters, under Spanish-American
jurisdiction, into “a political appendage
of the British Government.”
But admitting that the treaty is st 11 in
full force, Mr. Frelinghuysen claims that
it contains no provision that would be
violated by the construction ot tbe canal
in accordance with the terms of the Nica
raguan treaty.
The t’layton-Bulwer treaty. Mr. Fre
lingbuysen contends, was principally in
tended to guarantee protection to the
capital of private citizens of the contract
ing nations that might undertake the
construction of a canal across Nicaragua.
It has no reference whatever to such an
arrangement as that proposed in the
Nicaraguan treaty. Under that treaty
no private capital is to be invested.
Mr. Frelinghuysen also insists that the
provisions of the Clayton-Bulwer treaty,
with respect to the canal control, are not
violated by the Nicaraguan treaty, be
cause the latter treaty does not give to
this country exclusive control of the terri
tory that will lie traversed by the pro
posed canal. I'nder the treaty this coun
try will not fortify, occupy, colonize or
assume to desire domain over any part of
Central America.
The only point, says Mr.Frelinghuysen,
in which the two treaties could be con
sidered in conflict is the absence in the
Nicaraguan treaty ot a provision for ad
mitting other powers to narticipate in an
agreement to secure neutrality and pro
tection for the canal after its construc
tion. He does not, however, deem that
this is a point of importance.
Mr. Frelinghuysen evidently thinks
either that the Nicaraguan treaty is not
finally defeated or that his action in ne
gotiating it needs defending. Otherwise
he would not have published a letter of
the kind that he has at this time.
The New Orleans Murder Case.
The people of New #rleans appear to
be satisfied with the verdict that was
rendered on the second trial of the Ford-
Murphy murder case. There were few
who believed that a verdict of guilty
would ever be secured. A verdict of
guilty iu a murder case in New Orleans,
when the accused parties have money or
influential friends, is something so un
usual as to excite great surprise. New
Orleans was certainly surprised as well
as gratified when the jury returned a
verdict of guilty against those charged
with having assassinated Cap. Murphy.
It is sate to assume if it hadn’t been for
the press of the city there would have
been a different verdict. The press saw
that the time had come to put a stop to
murder in the city, and it demanded the
conviction of the alleged assassins.
The whole country knows the story of
the crime. The facts show That a police
justice named Patrick Ford, his brother,
his cousin and a policeman assassinated
a man named Cap. Murphy in one of the
principal streets of the city at midday.
The jury in the first trial failed to find
a verdict. It was proved that the defend
ants had communication with it, aud
came very near getting a verdict of ac
quittal. The jury that returned a verdict
of guilty this week was composed of vciy
different material. It was. however, a
strangely assorted jury. It was composed
of persons of English, Irish, French, Span
ish, German, Mexican and African de
scent.
It the full iienalty of the law is meted
out to the convicts there will be fewer
murders in New Orleans for awhile at
least. They may, however, get off on a
technicality. Thirty bills ot exceptions
were taken, and nobody can guess what
live Judges will do with thirty bills of
exceptions.
The efforts ol charitable people under
the lead of Rev. Henry Kimball, to relieve
the hunger of the paupers about Five
Points, New Y'ork city, do not appear to
be fully appreciated. A barrel or two ol
excellent pea soup is distributed daily,
but some ol the hungry people complain
bitterly that bread is not also furnished.
It seems that small favors are not thank
fully received by the undeserving.
YVhat Two Lives Illustrate.
Mr. Cleveland is in Washington, anil
to-day will be inaugurated President.
Miss Cleveland, his sister, is with him.
and will be installed as mistress ol tbe
White House.
The lives of these two people illustra.e
In an eminent degree the possibilities in
this country for rising lrom obscurity in
a few years to the highest political aud
social positions.
Five vears ago Mr. Cleveland’s ambi
tion perhaps did not aim so high as the
Governorship of New Y’ork. If he had
permitted himself to think of the Presi
dency as within his reach he would have
smiled at himself doubtless a-moment
afterwards for indulging in such a wild
day dream. What reason had he to hope
to secure that which so many great
men h> and vainly spent the best years of
their lives in trying to attain? And yet
tbe great prize came to him almost un
sought and before he had passed the
prime of life. He is. indeed, the most
fortunate of men, if a man can be con
sidered fortunate whose life is burdened
with great cares and responsibilities.
And Miss Cleveland! The change for
her is even greater than for Mr. Cleve
land. A few short months ago she was
filling acceptably the position ol lecturer
in some of the leading female schools of
New Y’ork. The position of mistress of
the White House was, perhaps, the fur
thest thing trom her thoughts. She was
content, doubtless, with her busy, useful
life. It is probable that the new life that
is opening to her brings her no pleasure.
The gayeties at the capitol, and tne homage
of diplomats, statesmen and the leaders
of fashion have, it may be, but few charms
for her.
It is with a feeling of pride in our insti
tutions, however, that we recognize tbe
fact that the man who will be
President to-day, and the woman who
will be mistress of the YVhite House for
the next four years, although they have
had but little preparation, are fully
equipped for the high positions they are
about to occupy. Mr. Cleveland is certain
to fill the great office of President as com
pletely as he tilled the Governorship of
New Y’ork, and Miss Cleveland will,
doubtless, rank with the ladies who have
won fame as mistresses of the White
House.
Boston’s Notorious Citizen.
John L. Sullivan, the Boston slugger,
has, according to the testimony of his
wife, become addicted to opium smoking.
The country long ago came to the conclu
sion that he was a brute, it is to be re
gretted that the press pays so much at
tention to him. Notoriety is what he
seeks and the ottener he gets his name in
to the newspapers the better he is pleased.
His wife has found it impossible to live
with him and has sued for a divorce.
Some of the stories she tells of his cruel
ties are almost beyond belief. On his last
Western trip she says he became angry
with liet on one occasion in a sleeping
car. He was sitting opposite her and
kicked her until the blcod rau into her
shoes, bhe made no signs of suffering,
because she did not want to expose him.
She is compelled to remain concealed
from him while her divorce suit is pend
ing.
Senator Lamar a few days ago, in com
menting on a picture of Sullivan in Fuck,
said that such a product was not
possible in the South. Men of the Sulli
van stamp find little sympathy or encour
agement in this section. In cultured Bos
ton are found the conditions necessary, it
seems, for the encouragement of men ol
Sullivan’s kind.

Partisan hostility reproaches the Democrat

of Jackson its “princpal tenet” has been “To
the victors belong the spoils.” if this is true
the adoption of the Democratic spoils policy
by the Republicans is the sincerest flattery.
Were the Democrats in turn to imitate the
example of their opponents there would be a
ruthless political proscription.

A katal duel has just been fought by two
military officers at Cologne. The weapons
chosen were pistols, and it was arranged that
the firing should go on till one or the other of
the combatants should be wounded. Seven
teen shots were In fact interchanged, when
Baron von Wille, a Second Lieutenant of the
Sixtv-llfth Infantry, fell, having received a
bullet in the lireasl. A few hours afterward
he expired. Tne quarrel out of which the
duel aro-e sprang from a misunderstanding
of a most trivial, not to say puerile,character.
One of the officers had by inadvertence put on
the military cap belonging to the other.
TliK gentleman of New York with the new
nose, which he considers a great improve
ment upon mere nature, is not happy yet. He
has had such troops of friends dropping in
upon him, not so much for the charm of his
conversation as to have a good look at the
renovated probocis, that ho has fled to South
ern skies, where he can enioy his own nose in
peace and quietness. The worst part of the
whole thing was not an infliction on him,
though; it was the receiving by lots of
people on Valentine’s Day of cruel sugges
tions of the successful operation. No pro
prietor of an imperfect organ seemed to be
sacred.
Laot Strapbroke, the real offender in the
Yates libel case, does not- escape punishment,
for, says Mr. Labour here: “I understand,
however, that in the spring of 1882, when the
Queen, as usual, received the lists for the
state balls and concerts, she struck out Lady
Stradbroke’s name, adding a sentence of per
tictual exile from Buckingham Palace; so it
is a mistake to suppose that the real culprit
has escajied altogether unpunished, as the
herd of society simpletons would infinitely pre
fer a term of penal servitude to a marked
manifestation of royal wrath; for, if royalty
frowns, ail its parasites and sycophants (i. e.,
society) eagerly follow suit.”

The meeting held by the members of tbe
First Baptist Church of Hoboken, N. J., on
Friday night to take action on tbe resignation
of the Itev. Dr. George L. Hunt as pastor was
secret. “The funniest thing that occurred at
the meeting,” said a gentleman who attended
it, “was this: Deacon Fields is one of the
Dominie’s most zealous friends. He is about
55 years old, with grty beard and a beneyo
lent expression. He is a builder. At the
meeting on Friday night he supported tne
pastor. He told those present that he had bad
a bigger difficulty than any of them with the
minister, and added that if they had settled
their dispute as he had settled his, there
would not have been any further trouble.
‘What was your dispute about?’ someone
asked. ‘Well, I’ll teil you,’ said the deacon.
•1 worked hard one Friday in cold we i tiler,
and when I went to prayer meeting that eve
ning the nice, warm heaters in the church
made me drowsy, and, after trying to keep
awake until T was tired, I went to 9leep dur
ing Dr. Hunt’s discourse. While I was snooz
ing the Dominie saw me and called out aloud.
“Won’t someone wake up Brother Fields?”
That arouse i me. and I woke up. Then I
t urned to a lady who sat behind me and asked
her whv she hadn’t awakened me when she
saw me asleep, she said: "I didn’t s*e you
asleep, for, to tell the truth, deacon. I was
asleep myself." Well. I was very mad, and I
went op to the Dominie afterward and I told
him never to do that again, and he said he
wouldn’t. Since then we have la>en good
fi iends. the best of friends.’ This speech
brought down the house, and all voted asvhe
deacon wanted them to.”
A SENSATION has been caused in medical
circles by the exposure of the methods em
ployed by a Dr. 'Jownsend. who has been giv
ing illustrations of his mesmeric powers in
Chicago. The subjects acted as mesmerized
people generally do, ana a number of physi
cians applied tests to them. The insensibility
to pain displayed by the subjects was re
markable. and the doctors were puzzled. On
Friday night one Robinson, actuated oy an
alleged failure on the part of the manage
ment to pay liis salary, walked out in front of
the audience and sbo’uted: “This thing is a
frand, and I can prove it. I’ve been a sub
ject here, and can stand any kind of a test.”
The exhibitions were given by Robinson, who
was prodded with needles." burned with
lighted cigars, had cayenne pepper thrown in
his eyes, swallowed Hie bitterest drugs, and
submitted to all sorts of torture without the
slightest perceptible tremor. Rohinsou ex
plained that the ability to endure pain
was cultivated, and that there were
men who made it a business, and
who were known among profes
sionals as “horses.” Five or six “horses”
were discovered who said they were perform
ing witli Dr. Townsend. Some of their feats
were almost incredible. For instance, they
allowed needles to l e inserted under the tin
g r nails or through the tongue without winc
ing. All of these men with whom the doc
tors talked said they were in the employ of
Dr. Townsend, receiving so much per night.
Asa result of the investigations of the medi
cal men, a novel seance was held at the house
of a prominent physician, in which the per
formers were half a dozen professional
subjects who had trained themselves to
the business. They stood without mov
ing a muscle while the needles were
thrust through their ears and arms
and under the nails of the fingers. Cay
enne pepper was swallowed by the spoonful
without a wink. All the “horses” said they
had been employe i as subjects by professional
mesmerists, and declared that the ability to
endure pain is a simple matterof pluck aud
training, and that all public exhibitions of
so-called mesmerists were conducted by the
aid of hired subjects.

called a “literarian.” This does souq ever
so much better than “ink slinger,” “dispenser
of hog wash.’’ or even “pastepot artist,”
terms which have been used quite frequently,
especially in the classic circles of the Occi
dent.— Boston Transcript.

“Certainly.” replied Mr. Smith; “what can

cents, and I want you to tell me what per

“A transaction of that kind, my dear Miss

Farewell to Arthur.—
Soon, gentle, genial Chester A.,
Your manly form shall pass away
From politics.
In peace you may your sonl possess,
No longer in the muddy mess
To move or mix.

And may you at your case enjoy
Your dearest wish—
The lake and crystal streams to woo,
And with the gaudy fly pursue
The festive fish — K. Y. World.

Lucky Sportsmen—Accidental Drown

Church.
Beaufort, 8. C., March I.—Washing
ton’s birthday was observed here by the
white fire company, the YVashingtons,
who paraded with their engine, and mado
a very pretty appearance in their red
uniform. The engine was draped with
black in memory of Sheriff Boyce, who
was a member of the company.
A little negro boy came to his death in
rather a peculiar way here last week.
He was stealing and was chased by a
policeman to the little pond known as
Weir’s pond, on the outskirts of the town.
There he ran into the water, and the po
liceman gave up the chase. His body
was found two or three days after near
a stump, about two yards from the shore,
where he must have tripped and fallen.
Two of our sportsmen went on a hunt

would have been invited to contribute
their quota to replacing it. In preparing
for the reception of the organ, the church

MILLKDGEVILLF. HEMS.
The Crops and the We ;tlier— The Condi

Correspondence of the Miming Feres.
Milledgkvillk, Ga„ March 2.—Al
ways a fruitful subject for comment, the
weather, has for several weeks past sur
passed its usual powers as a linguistic
excitant, and the- average mortal, espe
cially if he be a farmer, greets you with,
“Well, did you ever see such weather?
Are we goiug to b ive any spring this
year?” In some respects it ha 9 been a
remarkable February. While the rainfall
has not been excessive, the cold spells
have been so trequent and with so little
sunshine, the soil has been kept too wet
for any outdoor farming operations.
Making composts and mending fence may
be said to be the sum of iarrn employ
ment during the month. Some of the
farmers are talking despondently already,
complaining that their oats are ruined,
and that they have been unable to make
any preparations for corn planting. Y our
correspondent has taken occasion to re
mind many of these larmers who are dis
posed to l>e dispirited that some of the
most profitable crops grown in the past, 15
years have been made in years that were
characterized by as late spring as this
one will likely prove. The writer has had
some observation of and experience in
farm matters in the past 15 years, and he
is justified in tbe statement that it has
been rare that the soil aud air have been
so uniformly cold as during the month
past. The coldest weather of tbe winter
was delerred until nearly the middle
of the month, the temperature falling
to 13 on the morning ol the 11th—
a fall ol 58 degrees in 36 hours. The mean
temperature ot the month was 1 degree
below the same temperature of January,
The rainfall was only 3.30 inches. Of
course it is very unfortunate that the
farmers should lose their oat crop, but it
will he the part of wisdom for them to re
member—as H. J. (J. has frequently re
marked —that “all dangers are not
deaths,” and that good judgment and hard
work can yet retrieve any apparent disas
ter at this season of the year. Asa rule
farmers are a hopeful class, hut easily
drilt into anxiety and complaint.
During the past week the magnetic
(shall we call it this?) young lady Lulu
Burst has given the citizens of Milledgt
ville an opportunity to witness her re
markable powers, anti left them to specu
late to their hearts’ content as to the
source of such power. From all accounts
the list of gentic-women possessing this
power is being rapidly increased. Be
sides Miss Hurst, Mrs. Coleman of At
lanta, Miss Simpson of Marietta, and
Mrs. Haygood of Milledgeville are cred
ited witli possessing equally this mag
netic force. A perfectly satisfactory ex
planation of these manifestations is now
in order. Who will give it and prove it ?
An inspection a few days ago of the
new buildings being erected at the
asylum, whereby its capacity will he
greatly increased, leacle me to hope that
they will soon be ready for occupancy.
Unfortunately, there are quite a number
of persons in the State deeply interested
in "the completion of these buildings.
Owing to the crowded condition of the
present buildings, it has been impossible
to receive all for whom applications have
been made, but it will net be long now
before all such applicants will be received
and cared for. Dr. Powell and his as
sistants have done all they could to meet
the emergencies incident to a crowded
condition, and I am triad to say that the
health of the patients (nearly 1,300) is
good, and very few deaths considering the
condition of the poor unfortunates. I
doubt if there is an institution in the
world where more kindness and con
sideration is bestow and upon the inmates.
At the Methodist Church yesterday
Ilev. R. W. Bigham, its pastor, preached
one of his characteristic sermons on the
text: “Walk in wisdom toward them that
are without, redeeming the time.”—iv.
Corinthians. Mr. Bigham’s effective dis
courses upon love and charity have en
deared him in the highest degree to all
discriminating hearers, and while there
are many who create greater sensations
there are few who surpass him in those
tender appeals to the unregenerattd heart
to cast aside it 9 evil. The Milledgevilie
Church and community have cause for
congratulation that such a man is al
lowed to minister to tnern.
Since the departure of Rev. J. M.
Stoney to Camden, S. €., tbe Episcopal
Church has had no pastor, and few or no
services. Few men carried away from
this community such evidences of gen
eral love and esteem as did Mr. Stoney,
and his church here is suffering from his
absence, llis great bereavement in the
loss of his wife while on a visit some
months ago precludes any prospect,
probably, ot a return here for the present,
gratifying as it would be to his host of
friends here.
Mr. Stoney was for several years
chaplain of "the lunatic asylum, in con
nection with his city pastorate. He was
succeeded in this position by Rev.
Andrew J. Beck, the present talented
pastor of the Baptist Church, who
preaches twice a week to the patients at
the asylum, much to their enjoyment.
Baldwin county, after being without a
proper place for court purposes for a
number of years, has at last concluded to
erect a court house of decent proportions,
if not very expensive. At the
recent election while the majori
ty ol the people voted for it the constitu
tional majority wasonlyl9. Ourefficient
Ordinary, D. B. Sanford, has advertised
