THE CARROLL COUNTY TIMES. VOL. XIV. The “King of the Crackers" Gives Soma Reminiscences of His Eady Days. John Adkins, was a gentleman in every respect, and a man of great influence and talent, and very much thought of, besides a minister and poet; but unfortunately would drink a little too much. He had a very nice wife, a woman of good education and standing, very kind and generous; but one day Ad kins had been to a gathering and had drank too much, and returned home, and at the gate two of his little girls ran and met him, (as the other two were smaller,) and ex pected their father as usual would take them up and kiss them, and take them in his arms and carry them back, as he frequently did it; but the devil, I suppose, possessed him to act rough and rude with them, and left the children disap pointed and crying, and walked to the door and met his wife, who, hearing the childien cry, came to the door saying: “John, what will become of our children if their' father treats them so?'’This brought out the devil fully, and he became enraged; and there was a billet of wood at hand, and he picked it up and struck her on the bead. She bled, groaned and died; all from whiskey. He was tried and condemned to die by being hung; and while under the gallows be spoke freely and to the point, for he was.a good orator; and he sung this while very many shed tcars- Simw'rs, poor .-inners, take warning by me; The 1 trails of transgression behold j ou now see. My soul is tormented, my body con fined; Aly friends and dear children left weeping behind. Much intoxication my ruin has been; My dearest companion I’ve barbar ously slain. In yonder cold graveyard her body does lie; Whilst I am condemned and shortly must die. A whole life of sorrow cun never atone; For tliis cruel murder my hands they have done. lam justly condemned, it is right I should die; Therefore let all drunkards take warn ing by me. A solemn death warning for drunkards I have, While this trail body lies cold in the grave: Remember John Adkins, bis death, and reform, Lest justice overtake you, and ven geance comes on. Farewell my, dear children, wherever you be; Tho’ quite young and dear unto me: No father to shield you from hunger and cold. My poor little orphans are cast on the world. No mother to teach you, no father to guide. Though your tender affect ion* throng N • "sin’s rapid lidt; I leave you exposed in nature's wide field, To all the sad dangers of this wicked world. When sorrows surround you and sick ncss comes on, You will cry for your mother, but alas! she is gone: Your father in anger sit nek heron the bead; She bled, groaned and., langui-hcd, and alas! she is dead. When soirow surrounds yon, my eyes overflow; Theiefore, my dear children, I bid you adieu ; I hope my kind neighbors your guar dians will bp, And [leaven, kind Heaven, will save you from woe. When sorrow surrounds you my troubles increase; This world can’t receive me por grant me relief. T here is none but my saviour, whose mercies are free; Can pardon a sinner, a rebel like me. My soul to His mercies I hurnciy resign. With, saints and fWOvt angels I hope there to join; To tell of his mercies his wisdom and love, Who pardons poor sinners and crowns them above. After this man was hung, it seemed to place the drunkard in open view with his companion,whis ky, and had a great tendency to stop so much drinking for a while. Not long after this 1 heard J. 1 ticket, a Baptist minister, preach from a text; that was, as long as you kept the strong man- out of your house your goods wee safe; and described the drunkard, and made him rafe until he invited the strong man in his house, and the strong man he put do vn as whisky; and inoffensive in its proper place’ but out of it it was a robber a sneak, a broiler, and a blood-tliirs ty deceiver, and was amongst the strongest things on earth, for it would ruin man or beast out of their proper senses. 1 paid a good deal (if attention to him, as he fre quently alluded to the rope as the last end of drunkenness. In those days almost every man kept liquor in his house from year to year, as it was a common habit to invite your friend to drink and be social, and was only worth 50 to cents a gallon. 1 kept this idea of the strong man in my head, and conceded 1 would give it trial on beasts, or anything that I could get it down; so one day myself and a few friends ware in the Suwannee river swim ming; the river was low, and the water clear; and we found an alligator five or six feet long; and we concluded to catch him and give him some of the strong man. J. Basden got him first, and of course we all assisted him; and after get ting him out on the sand bar we poured down about as much liquor as we thought he could stand, and turned him loose; and he made for the water; but he did not stay long before our he came; and if ever Jona s fish tried to throw up, he tried, and rolled about on the sand. \V e threw him back, but he came out as fast as he could. I soon saw the power of the strong man in the ’gator and it made a different thing of him, as he quit his own clement. At first he was very snappish, but soon became sick and helpless. Not long after this I was left at home to keep the house, while my father and mother went to church, (some seven or eight miles, for in tho.-e days churches and preachers were scattering in the territory.) We had a half grown pet bear and a lot of young pigs, and a fine lot of chickens; so I thought now was my time to carry out my test on whiskev. Me always had plenty of liquor as d was a household dweller. 1 soon studio 1 up a plan to dose the three characters. I sweetened a lot of milk very sweet with hon ey, and gave it to Guffey. At fit st lie did not seem to like it; and after drinking a litle he left it; soon Mr. hog got to it and began in earnest to drink; Mr. bear could not stand it, so drives hog away, and began drinking more freely; he soon began to feel it and such rolhn and playing I never saw; and occasional ly he would go back and try more; but as S' on as his funny feelings were over he become very savage, and wanted to tear up things, so that I had to climb a sapling for safety. Before that he was always gentle and mild, bat now he was dangerous, but I soon saw him stag gering and weakening, and I was glad of if, for if the old folks had come home then Coffee would have gone for them; so 1 became very uneasy, as I thought there miirht be a disappointment; so it made me uneasy; but my bear was soon over come by the strong man; and Mr. hog had drank up all I lie sweet ened milk and wag'squealing for more; so as so >n as I.got down I fixed him more; and of all the drunken sights 1 ever saw Mr. hog showed, for it seemed he did not kyow when he had enough; he got so drunk he would wallow, spew and root over in it, until it was a disgusting sight to see how bad off and nasty he was. I soon saw Mr hog was badly out of his clement, and I tried to coax him to eat corn, a thing 1 never saw him refuse; but he did not nave any appetite; so I left bear and hog, and concluded to finish my practice on the feathered tribe. 1 was a litHe bothered at first how to give if, as I wanted them to drink it of their own free wi l !, giving them a fair, free will chance. After studying a little I got a bright milk pan and poured a loLof corn in it and called the chickens up, and they soon went for the corn. I went and poured out about a quart of liquor: I believe it was gin or rum, as it was very clear, and I poured it in pan, and then poured corn in th? pan with the liquor, and called up the feath ered tribe, and they pitched in the liquor after the corm I saw few did not like it at first,' ami I only gave them corn enough to see the effect. I waited a bit to sue effects; and I soon saw they became very merry, and even the hens tried to crow', so I conclude I'to thribble the dose, and I gave them plenty, and before they got too drunk I neve r was so amused in my life to see the hens crowing, pitch 111 fol C arrollton, Georgia, Friday morning, june 12. tsss. a fight with the rooster, striking at caca other and missing the lick, sometimes live or six inches, and pitching over on their heads, get ting up and hitting at the first chick en to come in reach; and continue until they became so drunk they would fall about and lie down and look as sick as they could be, and three of them died. 1 went back tolook for Mr. bear; he was yet asleep, and so was hog; and 1 began to think of what I had done; perhaps the liquor would kill the pile; and I knew I would stop the growth of a two year-old hick ory if the old folks came home; but I saw Mr. bear move and stretch, and I went to him and call ed him, and he seemed to know me, but looked very queer, or ashamed, a! ld hojj so 1 gave him a bucket of water, and he drank as bear never drank before; and soon was able to G a gger around; about that time pig began to move about, and gave him some water, and he began to get up, but to my surprise he went to the trough for more, and begged and squealed as though he must have it. I filled it with water, but no go, he wanted honey and liquor. 1 soon saw that most of the chick ens would be all right, and I began to feel Casy. I had done a good Sunday’s work. Putting these things together, the hideous looks of a buno* negro, and Adkins killing so good a woman, and old John’s sermon about the strong man, liquor, and my practice on the 'gator, bear, hog and chickens, for fear I would be delivered into the power of the strong man, I then and there resolved, never to call on him, or allow him take pos session of me nor friends, if I could help it. 1 have seen and known of a good deal of cruel treatment in families, and the wealthy brought to need, want and ruin. So 1 would say to enemies and friends, not to let the strong man take possession of you, for health, life, limb and property suffers, as I know that out of 42 of my friends that were about my age, and raised up in Florida at the same time, there are about 30 that liquor has ruined and caused their death, and 1 do believe I can date my success to sobriety. J. Summerlin. Orlando, Florida. Rapid Transit. Uncle Mose owns several shans ties in Austin, which he rents out but one of the tenants is rather slow in coming up with the rent, so old Mose had to make him a pastoral visit. Just as he was coming away from the house, old Mose having failed to collect the rent met Jim Webster. “Jim,” said the old man, “which am de fastest trabeler you eber heerd tell about. “Dey say that de ray ob light t rabbles more dan 200,000 miles a second, but I never timed hit my self,” replied J im. “Dar’s a man in Austin what can gib de ray ob light fifty yards start and beat it de wust kind.” “3’way, ole man.

A man who had evidently just arrived by the train walked into an Austin boarding house and ask ed: — “Is Day in?” “What day, sah,” asked the por- 1 tcr * 1 • 0 “What do I know about him? Do I look like a detective? If Day ain't in, tell Week to step out here.” What 'Week do you, refer to, sah? “Oh, last week, or week before Christ mad Do you take me for an almunac? who runs this shebang anyhow?” “De wid-'W Flapjack, sah. “Well, then, you tell her to take down her sign. I r-oad on the sign out there, ‘Boarders by Day or Week.’ and now it seems that both of 'em hive lit out. Ihat sign is put up there to deceive the travel ing public, and he picked up his gripsack and swung himself on board us a street car. THE SAILOR’S BRIDE. A STRANGE BUT TRUE STORY*. , Many decades ago a vessel from Boston arrived at a dock in London. Among the bands .on board was one named Tudor, a steady, well looking young man, who acted as a sailor. A ery early* one morning a young beautiful and decently dressed women came tripping down to the vessel and inquired of Tudor for the captain. She was told he was not risen, but she insisted on seeing him without delay. Tudor called him up, and she addressed him with: “Good morning, captain! 1 have called to see if you will marry me.” “Marry you?"—believing her to be a suspicious character—“leave my vessel instantly, if you know* what is for your good!” She next went to the mate and received a similar answer; she then went to whercTudor was, being engaged in handling ship tacks, and put the same question to him. “With all my heart,” answered Tudor, in a jocular manner. “Then,” said she, “come along with me.” Tudor left his work and followed her. By the time the principal shops were op ened the lady entered a barber’s shop followed by Tudor, She or dered a knight of the razor tef'clip his beard and hair, both of which he stood in need. She paid the bills and entered a hat store. She re quested the best of beavers in the store, and told Tudor to select one, and he did so, the price being paid by th? lady. Tudor threw his old tarpaulin aside. They next visited a shoe store, and selected a pair of boots,the lady also paying for them. Tudor, by this time, was puzzled to“devise the object tiie lady had in view.He solicited an explanation, but she told him to be silent. She led the way into a clothing store. Here Tudor was told to select the best suit of Clothes in the store. - The man of the tar bedauded pants and checkered shirt was in a few* min utes metamorphosed into as fine a gentleman as walks the streets, the bill as before being paid by the la dy. Tudor’s amazement was now complete. He again and again earnestly insisted on an explana tion; the only answer he received was: “Follow me and.be not afraid; all ■will be explained to your satis faction.” He therefore revolved to ask no more questions. Next she conducted him into a raagis trate’s'oftice and politely requested the minister of the law to unite her and her compani m in matri mony. This was rather a damper to Tudor, but he yielded. The ceremony over, the couple were pronounced man and wife. With out uttering a word or exchanging a kiss, Tudor and his wife left the office, not, however, until she paid the magistrate, his fee. The cou ple, walked in silence, Tudor hard ly knowing what he was doing or what he had done. Turning the corner, lie saw a splendid house, to which the wife directed her steps, mid into which they entered, pass ing into a room that was furnished in a magnificent style. She told him to sit down and make him self contented while she went into another room. The first one who addressed her was her uncle, who asked how* she escaped from her room and where she had been. Her only answer was: “Thou fiend in human shape; I allow* you just one hour to remove your effects from this house. You have long de prived me of my property, and meant to through life; but you are frustrated. lam mistress of my own house, Irm married, and inv husband is here!' We must leave the newly mar ried couple for the purpose of giv ing the history of Mrs. Tudor, bhe was the only child of a wealthy gentleman. Mr. A , his daughter's name being Eliza. He had been at great expense in her education, she being the only ob ject of his care, his wife dying when she was quite young. A short time before his death he made a will by which his brother was to have possession of all his property until his daughter was married, when it was to be given up to her husband, but if she died without marrying, the property was to go to her- uncle and his fam ily. After the death of Mr. A, his brother removed into his house and Eliza boarded in his family. : She soon discovered that her uncle did not intend she should ever mar ry. He shut her up in one of the 1 centre rooms in the third story and refused her associates by telling them when they called that she was gone on a journey. The unfortu ! nate girl was thus shut out from the world for three years. Her scanty breakfast happened ona to be carried to her morning by her old servant Juan. Seeing the face of her old friend I and servant, Eliza burst into tears. : Juan well understood the mean ing. “Hush, Eliza? Some of your old servants have long been planning means for your escape.” “What?” exclaimed Eliza, “is it possible shat lam to be delivered from this vile place?’’ It is unnecessary to detail all the ; minntia of the escape. Suffice it to say that on the morning of the I fourth day after the interview she made her escape. This was about (daylight. She immediately bent her steps to the wharf where the j Boston vessel lay. I The amazement of Tudor and ■ transport of his wife at the sudden change of fortune may possibly ! bo conceived but cannot be ex pressed. One pleasant morning some days ! after the marriage the crew of the Boston vessel’s attention was drawn to a splendid carriage approaching the wharf. The driver lowered the steps and a gentleman and lady finly 1 cressed alighted. The gentleman i asked the captain what port he was from, and many other questions— all the time avoiding his scrutiny; at last, turning to the captain and calling him by name, he said: “Captain, before leaving your ves sel, permit me to make you ac quainted with Mrs. Tudor.” The captain and those about him had not recognized him to be their old friend and shipmate Tudor, whom they supposed some fatal accident had befallen. You may judge of the congratulations that followed. The captain regretted the harsh judgement he had at first passed upon the young lady, but unlike the mate, being a married mar, he was spared the added mortification of the latter that he had spurned even to consider so fortunate an offer of marriage. This remarkable marriage, the bride being snatched from prison walls, as it were, and the groom called from the hard and humble lot of a com mon sailor both brought suddenly and unexpectedly to positions of freedom and affluence—has hardly a parallel in all history. The union thus formed proved to be a .very happy one. The large fortune that then fell under the active manages menc of Frederick Tudor was wise Ip handled and largely increased.— In due time Mr. and Mrs. Tudor transferred their residence to Bos ton. With shrewd foresight, Mr. Tu dor entered largely into the ice business, being the first person to make shipments of ice by sea. His venture was made 111 1805, when he sailed himself with a cargo of 130 tons, in his own brig to Mar tini pie, West Indies. In 1815 Mr. Tudor obtained the monopoly of the Havana ice business, and im portant privileges from the Cuban government. In 1817 he introduc ed the business in Charleston S. C, the next year in Savannah, and in 1820 into New Orleans. In May, 1833 he sent his first cargo of ice to the East Indies, which was de livered at Calcutta in the autumn of that year. Os the 180 tons, nearly one half was wasted in the voyage and in going up the Ganges. The ice was sold immediately, at no more than half the cost of that prepared by the natives. In 1834 the first cargo of ice was shipped to Brazil by Mr. Tudor, and until 183 Ghe had a monopoly of the shipment of ice,‘but it finally be came so large and profitable that others entered ?into the business from various ports. Mr. Tudor’s foresight secured to Boston the cheap position of the Calcutta trade, and gave her ships cargoes for Southern ports, thus re ducing the costs of freighting sontliern products to the North.— The extensive and valuable Tudor estates in Boston and vicinity, where representatives of the family reside, are well known. Tudors have always bean noted for public upirit, intelligence and refinement, and it was a frreak of good luck for more than two that brought about the establishment of the fam ily in America —Boston Common wealth.

Improving Good Impulses, j A lady, whose life was much given to doing good, prayc«l earn estly one day before going out that she might be guided to some Chris tian service. As she stood ou her stoop, pulling on her gloves, a tall, feeble looking youth passed along, j lie was carrying a large can, so heavy that he seemed to feel the weight very much. The lady's im mediate impulse was to speak to that boy. The next thought was. How queer and foolish it would be j to do such a thing, and what would the boy think if a stiauger should ; speak to him While she was lies { itating the youth had passed along. I But recovering her first impulse she walked after him, still hesitat ing what to do. At length she de termined that the opportunity must not escape. She went up to him, and said, “Well, young man, you have a heavy load, and you don't look very strong, arc }on?" He replied that he had been sick. The lady said, “I have a class of boys m the Sunday-school, and I am much interested in boys of your age.— Where du you go to Sunday-School?” lie said he had not been anywhere since his father died, and that was a boutthrec years ago. He had two sis tors and two brothers, and none of them went to any school or church The lady proposed calling at the boy s home. The boy's face was instantly flushed with wondering joy. His address was taken. On the afternoon of the day, the lady called on the boy's mother. The woman was delighted to be called upon, and she gave this account of what had happened to her in the morning: “Jimmy came running home all out of breath, and said: ‘Ma, you better fix up, for a big lady is going to call here pretty soon. 1 don't know who she is, for I never set eyes on her before, But she came up to me and spoke pleasant and kind as if I Lad been a rich gentleman’s Son, and it is the first time anything ever happened te me like it; and, ma, I was so ex cited, and my heart went thump, thump until it came up in my throat, and I thought I was going to bust! So I just set down my can and there I stood as weak as a cat, and just looked and looked after her till she was out of sight. 1 tell you, ma, I am afraid something aw fnl is going to happen— you bet ter get ready for it.’ ” Out of this came a home cheered by the feet of humanity—Chris tian words where for years they had not been beard; new* hopes kindled in desolate hearts; new courage to struggle on in life; five new members of the Sunday-school and, in short, a grand result out of merely acting upon a good im pulse. These impulses are good angels around us, whispering invitations to Christ like acts. Life is full of them. They are the seed corn of such things as the Judge will men tion to those on lu's right hand.— These impulses, acted on, will find daily opportunities. The world is full of pale faced Jioys ard heart crushed mothers. Our streets, the mere commonplaces of life, every foot of earth where humanity trav els, all arc heaven’s invitations and opportunities to do lowly things which heaven will commend—all arc chances to give a cup of cold water which Christ will remember and reward. Shall we not act on our good impulse?—Presbyterian. From the Dissecting. Room 1 haze taken Swift’s Specific for blood poison contracted at a medi cal college at a dissection, while I was a medical student. I am grate ful to say that it gave me a speedy and thorough cure after my parents had spent hundreds of dollars for treatment. Aly arm was swollen to twice its usual sige, and as noth ing helped me I was despairing of ever being cured. But hearing of the S. S. S., I bought a bottle lit tle thinking I would derive any benefit from it. I began taking it regularly, and soon the swelling began to go down and the arm ceased to pain me. I continued its use, and after taking eight bottles was thoroughly cuied. Augustus Wendel, M. D. Mewark, N, J., Jan. 3rd, 1885. a physician’s testimony.
