There is no great difference be
tween a person whose pride is in
his ancestors and one whose pride
is in his mule. In either case the per
son is nothing to himself.— Coweta
Advertiser.
That depends very much on
what sort of ancestors one has. If
they have been good men and have
served well their day and genera
tion, we see no reason why he
should not be proud of them, —
proud enough to copy their virtues
and emulate their usefulness.
An old fellow in the North has
discovered that the Earth is a liv

like any other animal. He says:
G A man will take breath twenty
times a minute, a horse and ele
phant much less than that. A
mastadon breathed once in everv
five minutes, and the Earth
breathes once in twelve hours. The
mouth of the earth is at the north
pole and is one hundred miles wide.
Volcanoes are only running sores
upon the earth’s body.”

The local option bill passed the
house on Saturday by a vote of
111 to 22. It provides that when
ever a petition signed by one tenth
of the voters of any county shall
be filed with the Ordinary that
officer shall order an election, at
which those favoring prohibition
shall have on their tickets the
words “Against the sale, 5 ' and those
opposing prohibition, the words,
“lor the sale.” Such election
must be held at a time
when no other election
occurs in the same month. The
voters must cast their ballots in the
militia district in which they reside.
The election must be for the whole
county. The bill does not apply
to counties that have prohibitory
laws in already force, until such
laws are repealed.
When the election results in fa
vor of prohibition the law takes ef
fect at once, except as to unexpired
licenses, and no other election is
provided for. If the result is
against prohibition, another elec
tion may be held after two years.
THE MAILS.
Generally wc have had no rea
son to complain of the conduct of
Postmasters. Wc will say that
from three fourths of the offices in
this county we have not had any
complaint from our subscribers as
to the prompt delivery of their pa
pers. Butj there have been exas
perating complaints from some ofli
ces. At one we have lost three sub
scribers in the last six months who
assigned the failure to get their
papers regularly as their sole rea*
son for stopping the paper. An
investigation developed the fact
that the Post-master, when a sub
scriber called for his paper and he
did . not readily find it was in the
habit of tearing the address from
another subscriber’s paper and giv
ing it to the one calling. This is a
palpable violation of law for which
a post-master would certainly be
removed if it came to the knowß
edge of the Post-master General.
At anothei office from which we
have received complaints we have
been informed that persons who
are not subscribers are frequently
permitted to take a paper out, “just
to look over” and feturn it. Any
one can see how such a practice
must lead to getting papers mis*
placed.
We have sometimes failed at
this office to get the papers out in
time—but not since last winter.—
Again, it may happen, and has
happened at least once that we
know of, that a mistake will be
made in mailing and a package be
longing at one office be sent to an
other. In such cases the Postmas
ter is not responsible. But if a
package has any mark by which he
can make out where it belongs it
is his duty to forward it. We are
prepared to make all due al lowan
ances for accident. But our suc
cess depends so much on the
prompt delivery of our paper, that
where repeated complaints came
up from the same post office, we
feel like insisting * that the Post
master there should be more care
ful, or get out of the way and let
some one have the office that is
willing to perform the duties that
pertain to it.
AU in the Line of Nature.
There is nothmg in the line of
magic or mystery about that won*
derful and popular medmine, Par
ker’s Tonic. It is simply the best
and . most scientific combination
possible of the essential principles
of those vegetable curatives which
act powerfully and directly on the
stomach, liver, kidneys and blood.
But there neither is, nor will be,
any successful imitation of it. It is
all the time curing those who had
despaired of ever getting well.—r
For yourself, your wife and chil*
dren.
NEW YORK LETTER.
New’ York, July 11th 1885
Editor Times: Now days a trip
to New York from Jacksonville,
Florida, is not of such moment as a
trip from Carrollton to Newnan
used to be in the days of our child
hood. We skim the continent from
San Francisco to Bangor Maine, or
from the city of Chihuahua, Mexi
co to Burlington. lowa, being in all
these places within the space of a
few days. Wc left Atlanta, the
Gate City of the South, on the
Eart Tennessee, Virginia and Geor
gia line of road, for a flying trip
to this section of the rural vineyard.
We on this line of the road visit
much of the country that is of
interest to all. The route was
through the Shenandoah and Cum
berland valleys. By this route the
traveler is treated to a view of the
battle fields of the late “onplcas*
antness.” The valley of the
Shenandoah is not very wide nor
of great extent; but every foot is
in a high state of cultivation. We
got a glimpse of the natural bridge;
soldiers monument at Antietam,
and "he wonderful beauties of na
ture at the Caverns of Luray. The
most impressive scenes that we saw
on the route, we believe were the
Confederate cemeteries at Sharps
burg, Hagerstown and Harrisburg.
We noticed with pleasure the mon
ument over the grave of Andrew
Johnson at Greenville, Tennessee.
Looking back for twenty years we
sec the awful, dreadful scenes of
civil war, death and destruction
in the valleys of the Shenandoah
and Cumberland. There are their
graves, they sleep the sleep of
the brave and true patriots to prin
ciple and eternal justice. The
“pride” and “flower” of the land
here fell in the defense of a cause
that they believed was right,’ a
cause that only sleeps until the
natural events and lapse of time
shall award and mete out justice;
a cause that was right and is right,
and can never be otherwise than
right through the years to come.—
It was and is a cause, a prin
ciple that can never be trampled in
the dust. When the time * conics,
when the moment is auspicious, the
accounts will be cast up and justice
wil b? meted ont as it deserves.—
No sensible being can view these
battle fields and see the giaves of
the Confederate dead and say they
“had no cause or right.” But these
are not times for such speech, for
at the White House the schemes
are being laid and plans, wise, de
vised for a sure election of Grover
Cleveland in 1888. The President
leaves now in a few days for a
rural rest among mosquitoes to
avoid the persistent and clamorous
claims of the chronic office seeker.
The rule now is that the man who
has the longest petition for an ap
pointment gets left. Secretary
Lamar, Attorney Garland and Sec
rotary Bayard, with assistance of
the President are making the best
administration the United States
has enjoyed for fifty years. The
ends of[j civil service will be
reached in a pleasant and satisfac
tory mannei, the Indian question
will sooon be settled and the land
theives be put in the penitentiary.
Probably the Dolphin will not be
accepted, and all these things be
accomplished without the world
knowing we have such a thing as
a Vice President among us. We
are a great people. Miss Cleve
land s book is now exhausting the
fourth edition. Washington is
wild over her and she is trulv a lit
erary acquisition to the society of
the capitol city. She is taking a
step in the interest of silk culture
which is commendable.
Genorid Sheridan left Washing
ton night before last for Kansas to
direct the Indian war, and report
to headquarters.
The summer reserts are all
crowded and the rush continues for
a place to keep cool. In fact wc
never saw such hot people before
anywhere, even under the equator.
Spider legged dudes and natural
born fools are as plentiful here, al
most in sight of Boston as any
place we ever saw. Walking out
in the parks you will notice a few
idiots here and there who are con
stantly breaking out spasmodically
in coarse uncouth laughter to at
tract the attention of others to their
supreme impudence. They are
roughs, rowdies, vulgar and pro
fane, cowardly and scurrillous, who
place their virtue as a sham and
have no respect for morality.—
These are they, that Sam Jones
rhould work on; but limn Georgia
is fu'l of them and lie had best
work on those at home first.
Business is rvthcr dull and quiet,
but ti e future is good and a lively
trade this fall and winter is expec
ted. V» e trust to sec old Georgia
farmers soon be the owners of
their places and independent.—
Plant less c tton, buy less guano
and raise home consumption on
the farm. Take care of the farm,
improve the dwelling and the period
of plenty and prosperity will come.

The Evening Capital,
We are under obligations to the
publishers for copies of 'heir new
daily, whose title heads this notice.
It is a six column, four page sheet
published every evening at 48 S.
Broad Street, Atlanta, at $4.00 a
year. It’s subscription list, though
it is not yet ten days old, has gone
beyond 5000. This may be re
garded as a marvel in Journalism,
even for Atlanta, whose people have
made her what she is by giving
prompt and cfficent support to
every enterprise wisely designed to
advance her interest. The Even
ing Capitol, judging from what we
have seen of it, is well worthy of
such support, and the rapid strides
it has already taken commend it to
country readers with more force
than could any words of ours.
Address The Evening Capitol,
48 S. Broad St. Atlanta, Ga.
Book Notice.
Godoy’s Lady’s Book for August
is a delightful number, handsomer
in appearance, and more generally
satisfactory then any of its predcs
cessors. Every month seems to
mark a stride in the progress of
this popular magazine. The pres
ent issue opens with a beautiful
chiaro-oscuro cut of “My Pets,” a
fine study of animal life as contras
ted with graceful girlhood, and
grouped against a strong back
ground of nature. The illustrations
this month are capital. A scries of
letters describing the trials of one
pressed into service to write anoth
er’s love letters, under the title of
“A Postscript-,” are particularly
good. A powerful serial story,
translated from the French by
Emily Lennox, contiues in this
number, under the title of “The
Yoke of Honor.’ An entertaining
conversation on chicken-culture,
incubating, etc., forms a feature of
the book, and introduces a scries
of projected articles on the useful
and ornamental occupations of
women. “Phillipa’s Pocket Mon.
cy” will furnish some valuable sug
gestions to women who are longing
for some way to turn a profitable
penny. A short parloi drama,
called “He is an Englishman,” is
given this month for the use of
summer idlers who do not care to
go too deeply in the histrionic.—
“Bella Donna” is a very clever
story of limited length, and Mis.
Hayden’s “Cup of Cold .Water” is
well calculated to win the fancy of
all lovers of romance. Godoy’s
never looked better than it
looks now. In this dav,
when so many old publications are
verging towaid decrepitude and
dotage, it is a pleasure to find one
that defies the march of time, and
still preserves its pristine vigor and
freshness while the years roll on.
That all may be convinced of its
merits, the Publisher offers to send
the book for the remainder of the
year for 75 cents.
