CARNESYILLH, GA., TUESDAY, OCTOBER AS 1887.
Tho Knell of tho IrdnclaO.
In our columns the other day appeared
a description over the commercial eabla
of Great Britain’s largest addition to her
armored fleet, just launched, and an ac
count of experiment with the dynamite
gj** m “* “ wd *
It is not improbable, it is stated in tho
dispatch, that tlie day of great ironclads
is over. Just as gunpowder drove tho
ironclad knights out of their cumbrous
helmets and corselets, so the ponderous ar
tillery of today, by making the warship
of the recent past more dangerous to her
crew than to tho enemy, wilt cause a
radical change in naval ships.
The struggle between gun and armor
has gone steadily on, each gaining alter
nato temporary advantages, only to bo
overpowered by successive improvements
in tho other. It is probable that tho
pneumatic dynamite gun, tho different
varieties of the torpedo, and tlie sub¬
marine cruisers have closed, or will
shortly close, the competition. Bpced,
coal capacity, seaworthiness, and rapidity
of handling are likely to be the requisites
of the new warship, and the thinnest hull
compatible with the conditions is the cen
straction most desirable,
Naval tights at sea will again become
trials of pluck, skill, and endurance in
stead of mere pot and kettle contests, in
which iron and steel count for more
than brain and muscle. - The natural
“sailorman, whether fighting in a
wooden sailing slap or m a fast steam
(unarmored) cruiser, will assert his su
premacy as when he fought under Col
lingwood, Nelson, Hull or Decatur. And
viewed from this standpoint, the United
States has nothing to fear from the future
of her navy.—New York Herald.

“wishing Wells” of Northern England,
An English writer says throughout the
north of his country there are “wishing
wells,” where the passer by may breathe
His wish, “and may rest assured of its
fulfillment if he only drop a crooked pin
into the water. ”
This use for crooked pins must be gen
erally known and practiced. Another
person says: “It is scarcely three months
s j 1JC e I looked into tho wishing well at
Wooler and saw the crooked pins strewed
over the bottom among the gravel. ” The
game thing is told of others of these 1
springs,
One curious tiling about the practice is
that crooked pins are used. It may to
thought that such pins, being worthless
for any other use* were held as fit for this
idle ceremony. This is looking at the
matter from our point of view, not from
that of the humble questioner.
The older and more complete cere
nrony is described as still to to witnessed
in Cornwall.
“Two pieces of straw, about an inch
long each, were crossed and tho pin run
through them. This cross was then
dropped into the water and the rising
bub Lies carefully counted, as they marked
tlie years or months or days that would
pass before the happening of the event
which was of concern.”
Auguries were drawn from these crosses
in other ways. They were made so as
Lnrely to float; then, “if the cross su am,
the thrower was to outlive the year; if it
.sank, lie was to die within that time.”
other matters were to be learned from
the position the cross took as it floated on
t} H) surface.—Youth’s Companion.

Where all is warm save friends too few,
And honest men, alas! too rare;
Where teeming false leaves little true,
And Utmost shaken is belief,

I long for what Etc left behind.
We hurry so; we do not care V .Tlfel- j3®

And by the candle's last faint flare
We see too well file blank we drew. f •,}•
But I, who've liad a glimpso too brief
Of life so hoty, pure, so kind, iff
To think it here proclaims me thief— W
I long for wliat I’ve left behind. ’ <!
I liear thc'Bob White's whistle where
The grateful grasses lit,Id the dew;
I see the nursing branches bear
The fruit with life blood blushing through)
I feel the incense from each leaf,
Which, rocking trustful, does not mind
The threatening of the coming sheaf—
1 long for what I've left behind.
Dear! You who breathe tt purer air

A DANGEROUS PRAIRIE GROWTH.
Th© Curious riant Known as the “Tum¬
ble Weed’'—A Great Menace.
W. F. Niedcrlander a prominent real
estateman,liasoncxhibitioninthewin
dow of his oflice a fine specimen of tho
curious plant known as tho “tumble
weed.” This specimen was taken from
tho old fail- grounds last year after the
grounds were abandoned. Tlie plant is
amass of branches, spherical in form,
and so tightly interwoven as to form al
most a compact mass. Like the earth,
this globulous mass of brandies is flat
tened at the poles—or more so. Thepres
ent specimen is about five feet at its
greatest diameter, Mr. Niederlander says
he lias seen specimens fuBy twice tho size.
Tho weed once grew plentifully through
this country and Colorado. "When green
they present a very pretty appearance,
and look more like a dwarf tree than a
weed. They are very dangerous in case
of a prairie fire, and often dangerous in
plain wind storms when there is no fire.
In case of lire the flames seem to strip
the plant of its loaves, and it at otice goes
before the flaming hurricane a
perfect wheel of fire. These revolving
wheels of fire will jump any erdinary
furrow or fire break and carry the fire
into the timber or grass, as the owe may
to. Nothing can stop their progress but
a river. Into these they jump, leaping
out into the stream forty, lifty or sixty
feet, and go down with a hiss, throwing
up a column of steam where they sink.
“I have seen hundreds of these plants
in Barber county and the Siquasbie “AVlien val
ley,” said Mr. Niederlander.
started to rolling in a fire no ordinary
horse can run before them. Once,in tho
Siquashie valley, I only saved myself by
driving my team into tins river, which I
fortunately reached j.isfrin lime.”
In Colorado wind storrna these weeds
are also a source of much danger. In
Middle park a few years ago a party of
travelers were suddenly overtaken by a
storm. Seeing what they supposed to to
a mass of huge bowlders in tho distance,
they made for them, thinking they would
afford at least partial shelter. To tlieir
surprise, as they approached, tlie l owt
ders suddenly broke loose and commenced
rolling toward them at a furious rate,
cutting all sorts of curious nsrjiei'H and gy
rating menacingly would as they came. and At
times they strike an obstrivctirai
bound l.igli in the air, and again striking
ground resume their rapid, circuit..

Pour Kinds of Parisian Restaurants.
The Parisian restaurants may be divi¬
ded into four classes. First come tho
“Cremeries, ” a kind of dairy eating
house, and chiefly supported by Dural,” the lower
classes; tho “Ktablissementa tho
restaurants “a fixe prix” the and last tlie class restau- be¬
rants “a la carte.” To
long, of course, tho fashionable and ex¬
pensive cafes of the great boulevards,
such as the Anglais, the Maisoq last Don*
and tlie Cafe Bignon. Him men¬
tioned, by the way, is in tho Champs
Elyeees, and its scale of prices is outrage¬
ous, probably due to the fact that its pa¬
tronage is almost entirely English and
American. A little further down in tho
scale come a multitude of restauants' ‘a la
carte,” nil good and comparatively that rea¬
sonable. Tlie great trouble is one
dining alone must either he prepared to
content himself with a very simple din¬
ner, ns far ns variety is concerned, or elso
be obliged to order twice as much ns ho
can eat at a proportionate addition to his
bill. One portion for two people is tho
almost invariable order in a Parisian res¬
taurant “a la carte,” and some of them
will even serve a portion for three. Un¬
less one dines there in company with a
friend or some accommodating stranger,
ho will find that tho saving, as compared
with Ddmonico’s in New York, is little
or nothing, except, perhaps, in the single
item of wine.
The dinners “a fixe prix” according vary, of
course, in quality and variety,
10 the price. Tho table d’hote at six or
eight francs is far superior to anything
outside of France, and from that one
mav dine as low down as a franc and a
quarter. But the cheap French tahlv
d'hote is the worst atrocity that a reckless
man can inflict on his long suffering self.
The service is always poor, the room nl
wavs crowded, the table, linen and glass
ware always dirty, and the cooking, will«
but lew exceptions, always bad. lh<
only thing that is almost invariably good
is ilie bread, but then the restaurant,
themselves do not make it, but buy it
from the bakeries.—Paris t'or. New \oi'k

escapes with a whistle like that of a
