J How a Johnny Reb Got Out of Camp Douglas. In conversation the other day with a | merchant in the city, w*ho during the war, was a member of the immortal Stonewall brigade, he told the follow ing, of which he was an eye witness: In April , 18G4, he was one among the large number of Confederate pria oners confined at Camp Douglas pris on, the commandment of which was Col 15- J. Sweet, a kind hearted officer and a true gentleman. When the news of the assasination of President Lincoln was received, the flag was lowered to half mast as a mark ot re spect; but owing to the great height of the staff, the banner, which was of the largest size, was blown so far out that there was an emiuent danger of the laniard giving away, when it would come down with a run. To obviate this it was determined to seud a man to the top of the staff and remove the pully, intending J,p replace it at a point half way dow and a volunteer was called from’ among the guards to perform the pas triotic service. The danger was great and the commandant offered a dis charge from the service to the* man who would climb the giddy height. With this inducement a young man stepped forward and annoim ced his readiness to make the attempt. lie was then furnished with a pair of leg guards, containing small, sharp pro jet tions, something similar to those vvoru by telegraph constructionists, and with a stout belt buckled around his waist and encircling the flagstaff, he commenced the toilsome ascent. Slowly he proceeded, stopping at in tervals, to tighten the belt, which was rendered necessary by the gradually diminishing size of the mast. Onward and upward he went,-with the eyes of every man inside the walls fixed upon him with an eagerness almost painful in its intensity. Still the dar ing man continued, growing tuna ler and smaller and smaller, until, from his lofty altitude, he seemed no larger than a child, lie had almost reached out Ills hand to seize the lanyard, which fluttered in reach just above his head. In an instant the cheers of thousands of anxious spectators would break forth in admiration and encour agement, when the chord eluded his grasp, he lost his balance, and fell— down, with, lightning rapidity, the belt tightening every inch ot the way until the tension became so great the faithless band, worn by rapid friction and the momentum of descent, gave way. The unfortunate soldier fell head long, striking the platform at the bottom of the flagstaff, and chrnshed through the heavy planking of which it was composed. His horrified comrades at once ran to his assistenc and picked up the mangled form, but the injuries the unfortunate man sustained were fatal, and he died in a short time. The commandant, though deeply regretting the accident, still wished the position of the fllag changed, but the tempting offer of five Hundred dollars in greenbacks and a discharge from the service could not induce any of the garrisson to make the attempt, with the fate of the : r comrade still fresh iu their minds. Colonel Sweet then made the same offer to the Confederate prisoners, and one daring fellow, a young artillery man announced his willingness to try the dangerous feat. The proper equip ments werefurnis'ned, and with stead fast nerve he slowly made his way upward till he reached the top. The lanyard was was removed from the end of the staff and secured properly lower down, when the unshaken John nie safely descended to terra firma once more, when, with the commen dations ol tUo soldiers on duty as well as of his comrades, ho received his discharge from prison and n»~ SIOO greenbacks—more than suffi cient to pay Ins traveling expers s home, while the flag floated at half mast iu honor of the dead President, fanned by the breezes from the great Northern lakes. —LTnox tulle Press rltrail. - «<©»•- Cold without: ‘Gracious heavens, doctor! do you mean to tell me that I must do without stimulants altogeth er?’ ‘Certainly.

The recent decision of the Supreme Court of Georgia to the effect that homesteads which had been set apart could not be sold, and that sales where made, void, made it the duty of the Legisfature to provide some mens ure for the protection of parties in such cases. Senator McDaniel introduced a bill to meet the exigency, which passed both houses and having been approv ed by the Governor is now a law. As many of our readers are directly in terested in this law, we print it. A BILL to be entitled an act to provide for the adjustment of the rights ot parties in cases where property which has been set apart under the homestead and exemption laws of this State, has here tofore been sold. Section 1. Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of Georgia, Thac from after the passage of this act, couru? of equity alone shall have jurisdiction suits * or the recovery of property has been set apart under the ho'nC and exemption laws of this State, anj which has been sold, or for the recov ery of any interest therein, and that shall be lawful for any party to prove that the purchase money of such property, or any part thereof, lias been invested iu other property, or has been applied to the benefit of the family for whom such property had been set; apart as aforesaid. Section 2. Be it further enacted, That in cases where the proceeds of j property sold as aforesaid, has been I invested in other property of equal Value and for benefit of said family, the court shall confirm the sale and purchase, and therefore the property so purchased shall be held by the family an a homestead and exemption :n lien of the property so sold, which shall be discharged of the particular estate vested by said homestead and exemption laws in said family. Section 3. lie it further enacted, That in cases where all the proceeds of the sale of property have beeu aps plied to the benefit of said family the court shall confirm the sale, and tin re alter the property so sold shall be dis charged of the particular estate afore said. Section 4. Lie it further enacted, That in cases where part only of the proceeds of property, sold as aforesaid has been invested as aforesaid, the court shall take an account of the pro portion that the amount so invested bears to the entire value of the prop erty so sold, and shall confirm the sale as to that proportionate part of the property and confirm the purchase and thereafter the property so pure has ed shall be held by said family as a part of their homestead aud exemption in lieu of the proportionate part atoresaid of the property so sold, which shall be discharged of the particular estate aforesaid. Sect’on 5. Be it further enacted, That in cases where a part only of the proceeds sold as aforesaid has been applied to the benefit of said family, the court shall take an acccuut of the proportion that the amount so applied bears to the entire value of the prop erty so sold, and shall confirm the sale as to that proportionate part of such property, which shall be dis charged of the particular estate afore said. Section 6. Be it further enacted, That incases when any portion of the proceeds of property sold as aforesaid has neither been invested in other property, nor applied to the benefit of said family, the court shall ascertain the amount thereof and in the inter est of said family therein, aud shall • ivi a decree to protect the lights aud interests of saiu • ° , .. , 7''v in the property so sold, and at the same to protect the rights aud interests of the purchases in the reversion af such property after the particular estate aforesaid, shall have been determined, aud shall require parties complainant to do complete equity iu the premises before obtaining equity. Section 7. Be it further enacted. That in cases wheie a portion or alj of the purchase money of property so sold has not been paid, the court raav confirm the sale and order the re-in vestment ot the proceeds, or may cans <*■“] and set aside the sale, and compel the rest oration of anj r part of the pur chase money which may have been paid and may grant relief to the par ty according to the principles of equi ty- Section 8. Be it further enacted. That all suits herein provided for, shall be brought within six months, after the passage of this act, or the right of the party complainant, and all right ot suit for its enforcement shall be forever barred. Sectiou 9. Be it further enacted, That in cases where suits are bow pendingi n courts of law or equity for the recovery of property sold as afore said, parties defendants shall be enti tled to the defenses aud equitable re bel provied for in this act. Section 10. Be it further enacted, That all laws and parts of laws in conflict with of this act be and the same are hereby repealed. Plant a Grape Vine First. No one fanner iu twenty will buy grapes or other fruit except apples for himself and family, but grapes are so easily and cheaply grown that no family with a square rod of ground ghould be without a grape vine. Grapes can be got in bearing earlier than any other fruit, excepting straw berries; and with well rooted layers I have had one bunch of grapes the first year after setting. Yet many a man spends fifty to one hundred dol lars in settting in apple orchards which will not bear till six or eight Ve /M*s after, who would begrudge five dollars or a dozen vines of the choicest gru, nes > which he mi ght eat within two years>, and bave abundance before five years hav,.' P asst? d. I do not object to extensive aild tally planting of apple orchards, ought ye to have done and not b<* ve left the other undone. It seems to m e that the first duty of a settler on new land is to pant half a dozen grape vines, aud after that; as many as he can afford. Fresh fruit is nec essary to thr health of a family, and nothing is more quickly, easily or cheaply grown than grapes. —Ex chan ye. Shadows.—Not a household shall you find upon which some shadow has not f..llen, or is hanging ever ready to fall. You will find that there is scarcely one household that does not know some sorrow not known t.o the world; who do not have some trial there, peculiar message, which they do not talk about except among themselves? some hope that has been blasted? some expectation or aspira tion cast to earth? some wrong, real imaginary, which some number of the household has suffered? trembling anxieties lest other members will not succeed? trials from the peculiar tem perament of somebody in the house, or some envy that binds us from with out? some thorn iu the flesh? some physical disability that cripples our energies w’hen we want* to use them the most? some spot in the house where death has left his track, or we are painfully listening to hear his foot steps coming on. Sweet Oil rou Poison.— lt is now over tweuty years since I heard that sweet oil wouhi cure the bite of a rattlesnake, not knowing that it would cure other kinds of poison. Practice and experience have taught me that it will cure poison of any kind both on man tnd beast. Th e patient must take a sooonful internally, and bathe the wound for a cure. To cure a horse it takes eight times as much as for a man. One of the m ost extreme cases of snake bites occured eleven years ago. It had been of thirty days standing, and the patient had beei given up by his physicians. I gave him a spoonful of oil, which efteefed a cure. It will cure bloat in cittle caused by fresh clover. It wil cure the stings of bees, spiders, and other insects, and persons who hive been poisoned by a low running vine called ivy. «. An Old Recife.— A vrriter in one of our exchanges says: That one (by weight) rosin, onepart beesx I°‘‘. ""ts good fresh or sound lard. M.x and tuu, *ogethe- over a fiie so as to be sure not to b im the mixture. It makes an oiotme* mpe . rior to auvthing we have ever seeu tried for the flr sn of either horse or cattle, for either fresh or old soret. and is especially good to remove old dry scabs. It softens the scab and it cotnes off leaving the skin soft and tougk The mixture is the best tiling I e\ti used for boots or shoes for out door wear, as it makes the spongy leather water proof aud hard leather soft. Eighty-seven casrs of goods for exhibitiai at the Centennial were si upped from the Cape of Good Hope on Januaiy Loth. Necessity of Punctuation. Punctuation selves to make a wri ter’s meaning plain, and often pre vents it frvin being misunderstood. In many cases, a change of points en tirely alters the sentiment. This fact is illustrated in the following para graph. Ii can be read two ways, and the man is shown to be either very good or very bad’ according to the manner in which it is punctuated. ‘He is an old and experienced man iu vice and wickedness he is uever found opposing the works of iniquity he takes delight in the downfall of his neighbors he never rejoices in the prosperity ot any of his fellow crea tures he is always ready to assist in de stroyiug the peace of society he takes no pleasure in serving the Lord he is uncommonly diligent In showing dis cord among his friends and acquain tances.’ If w T e wish to make him a very bad man, it should be punctuated as fol lows? ‘He is an old and experienced man in vice and wickedness* He is never found opposing the works ot iniquity. He takes delight in the downfall of his neighbors. He uever rejoices in tire prosperity of any of his fellow creatures. He is always ready to as sist in destroying the peace of society. He takes no pleasure in serving the Lord. He is uncommonly diligent in sowing discord among his friends and acquaintances.’ But in order to make him a good man, we should punctnate it thus: ‘He is an old and experienced man. In vice and wickedness he is never t *‘und. Opposing the works of iniquu vbe ta^es delight* In the downfall o/ bis nei S hbors be uever rejoices. In thj P loS P eiit y of an y his fellow creatures 18 alw^s read y to asisst. In destroying le P eace society, lie takes no pleasure. Bei . v ing the Lord he is uncommonly u. gent.’ Here is another illustration, an old nursery rhyme, which very aptly shows the importance of placing the semicolon in the right position. Punct uated as follows, it makes complete nonsense: Every lady in the land lias twenty nails on each hand ; Five and twenty on hands and feet This is true without deceit. A slight change, however, in the punctuation alters the sentiment aud makes the meaning plain. Thus : Every lady in the land Has twenty nails , on eaeh hand Five, aud twenty on hands and feet This is true without deceit. — Don’t Tell all You Know. It is a bad plan to place unreserved confidence in a man or woman: Nev er tell any one everything about your self—let there be a little mystery and reserve : your friends thep will like you all the better for it. A book that you ‘know bv heart’ must inevit ably be cast aside for a fresh volume, so will you be served if you allow yourself to be thoroughly read. But be prepared, in any emergency, to look your own life and acts squarely in the fact without ever flinching, or mark yourself a coward. It is not necessary to publish to the world all that is strictly personal, unless rkVc i’e and frittering of power are desired, but’if gossip makes itself busy with your name, do not be aggrieved it a grain of truth is spread over a dozen lies. Pass them by in silence, and do not even then forget your habitual i eticence. Justice will be done you in time, never fear, and the less clam or for it the better. Don’t talk too much. If you cannot speak well of your neighbors, do not speak of them at all. A cross neighbor may be a kind one by kind treatment. The true way to be happy is to make others happy. To do good is a luxury. It you are not wiser and better at the end of the day, that day is lost. Prac tice kindness, even if it be but a little each day. Learn something each day even if it be but to spell one word. Do not seem to be what you are not; Learn to oontrole your temper and \onr words. Say nothing behind back that yon would not say to face. —< m C ina 5 ? 20(},000 square miles of emtoi-v, anu 400 000,000 inhabit* ants.

Ills uncle left him some money, and he had started in the grocery and pro vision business. The canvassers came around here from the daily papers, and said he had the best location in town, the nicest stock, and all that, and then went bang at him for an advertise ment. He had read iu the papers that John Jacob Astor, A. T. Stews art, Daniel Pratt, John Smith, and a host of others, had once been poor, and had made their start by advertis ing. He belied it all, dough-head thit he was, and advertised four squares in *he Torchlight, six squares in the Badger, half column in the Moonshine, and slipped a five dollar bill to the reporters, and told ’em to say a good w ord for him. The re porters did, and when the people saw* from the advertiscnentß]that Ilippoflam had started into business with a flesh large stock, they rushed for his store. T hen his troubles commenced. He had to hire an extra clerk and a cash boy. He could not find time to sit down on a candle-box, thrust his feet under the stove, and gossip about politics and the Louisanna question. Every day or two he had to write or telegraph for new goods, ordering more coffee, tea, sugar or spices; and when the goods came he had to open them and retail them out. As day after day went by people began to notice that Ilippoflam was growing thin and pale. He looked careworn and harrassed. as if driven. He kept advertising, and people kept patronizing him. Other grocers could get time to go off on excursions and to sit down for hours at a time, and play checkers and dominoes; but Ilippoflam could not get an hour to himself, except time to sleep. By and by he had to open an account with yet another bank, get more ’erks and cash boys; and it came about tbat be kept a carriage, built a _ * w*ore broadcloth, and was tine house, „ , , A the town, elected mayor . , could not go in Os course a man . . , . . . bout break tins way many years wu. ft , e day ing down his health, und c. ‘ , came at last when Ilippoflam haa dispepsia, the jaundice, the heart dis ease, rheumatism, and several other complaints. The shadow of death hung over him, while the grocers that hadn’t advertised at all grew fat and portly and had double chins on ’em. They had time to go fishing, were never tired out looking over their bank accounts and it wasn’t once a year that they had to order anything more than a box of herrings. Broken down in health, feeling road at all the world, and finding himself a victim of newspapers, Hip-. poflain chew all his money out of the bauk, passed it to a lunatic asylum, set fire to his store, blew up bis mans sion with a keg of podwer and then hanged himself to a peaebtree in the back yard. The Coroner cut him down, the jury sat on him, and the verdict was: ‘Advertising killed him, and we hereby warn all business men to let his fate be an awful example against patrnoizmg newspapers.’ —M Quad in St. Louis Gazette. Senator Gordon Speaks. General Gordon spoke to an im mense crowd of ladies and gentlemen in Atlanta on Monday night last lie was introduced by General Lawton, of Savannah. There was great ap plause when he appeared. lie made an eloqueut speech, which is heartily endorsed. He spoke of the fearful dangers impending on account of the corruption and usurpation of the Kadical paity and pointed out the best means for removing it from pow er in November. He had no candi date for President yet, but should support the most available man. Toombs, remarks about a constitu tion in which the negro should not be heard of had filled the Northern mind with apprehension as to the purpose of the Democratic party, and it a con stitutional Convention is to be held —and he would not commit himself on the subject—-it should be held at once, in order to remove this appre hension about injustice to the negro race. Toombs declaration— whose speech Morton read in the Senate as delivered to and approved by the Georgia Legislature he says is the greatest misfortune that has fallen on the South since the surrender. These two statements were heartily applaus ed, as was his approval of Hill’s speech to Blaine. If we can quiet the ap prehensions at the North, which are more to be feared than the passions of the people, he predicts a Democratic victory in November, and this alone c an save the country from anareny au * r uia.
