New mill Womlcrftll Carpet hairs.
A Dr. Blount, olhorwlso known as “old
spnl,” owns a very qnoor carpet bag. It
ran do nlmost everything except talk.
One thing lo certain, It can stenl. We
learn from a correspondent of tho Atlanta
Constitution that it look and Idd among
its capacious folds a lady’s cloak. Tills
wonderful feat of tho carpet bag was per
formed at tho “Georgia Ilotol” In this
city. True, no ono was present when It
jvnsdono, not oven “spot” hbnsclf; but
tho cloak was found stored away down,
deep In tho carpet bag. No ono could tell
how It got there; even "spot” could not
throw any light on tho ninttcr Involved in
so much mystery.

Don Fialt met General T. L. Cling-

him:
I knew Cllngman hi tho olden tlmo,
when the South ruled Washington, and
ho and a few others ruled tho South. That
was a lime of Virginia, abstraction, Dem
ocratic contradictions, and comparative
ly speaking, n period when our civil af
fairs were uouestly administered. These
Southerners were beastly aristocrats, and
whipped noend ofpioilt from the backs of
their slaves. Hid then would not steal.—

Mr. ■Editor.'—Tlio session of tho General
Conlbrcnco,'which tins been pleasant in
passing and will bo precious to memory in
years to coino, is rapidly drawing to a
close. Tho various subjects referred to
the standing committees have been well
matured, nnd their reports will generally
bo adopted without muclr discussion or
alteration., The fow Important changes
proposed In our economy havo failed; and
While their advocates feel some d|snppolnt-
mon t (it tho result, they ohocrfril acquiesce,
nnd dlspcreo to their scattered fields of la
bor, willing to sacrlfleo tholr individual
opinions for tho general good. Your cor
respondent lielng an old fogy In such mat
ters Is much gratified that the spirit of In
novation, of which tho world is so frill,
has not taken root Iq tho Church.
Tho occasion bus been ono frill of inter
est nnd prlvilosro. During the intervals
lietwer.n sessions, many pleasant acquain
tances and warm friendships havo been
formed. The social Intercourse afforded
by thoso largo gatherings, promotes eon-
noctlonallsin and sympathy, nnd asldo
fr'om tho Immodlato purposes of business
nnd church loglslallon, will materially
strengthen our efficiency,
AVo havo lmd tho opportunity to hear
tho best preachers In our connection, nud

from «omo particular servico, that wo wore
compelled lo miss a dozen sermons deliv
ered at snmo hour. Tho Baptists, Pres
byterians, nnd Cufnbcrlnmls, cordially
throw open all their commodious nnd clo-
gaiit churches to our miuistry. There
seems lo bo fraternal feeling and sympathy
between tlio several denominations, which
spirit the Methodists nover foil to appre

who heard ldin. It is to be hoped that
tlio strong religious influences now pre
vailing hero, will leavo lasting impression
upon tho morals of this largo and growing
city. While tho churches nro numorous

Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral,
For Disoaaoa of tho Throat and Lungs,
such as Coughs, Colds, Whooping
Cough, Bronchitis, Asthma,
and Consumption.
Probably nover before In tho wholo history of
Atodiolnc, has any thing won so widely nnd so
deeply upon tho confldcnco of mankind, ns this
excellent remedy for pulmonary complaints.
Through along ucrics of years* and among most
of thtflaccs of men it has risen higher nnd higher
In their estimation, as It lias become better known.
Its uniform character and power to euro tho va
rious affections of tlio lungs nnd throat, hnvo
mndo it known as a rollablo protector ngninst
thorn. While adapted to milder forms of disease
and to yonng children, it is nt tho samo tlmo tlio
most effectual remedy that can bo given for Incip
ient consumption, nnd tho dnngerous affections
of tlio throat nnd lungs. As a provision against
sudden attacks of Croup, it should bo kept on
hand In every family, and Indeed ns nil nro some,
times subject to colas nnd coughs, all Ehould bo
provided with this antldoto for them.
Although settled Connutnptlon Is thonght In-
curnblo, still great numbers of cases whero tho
disease seemed nettled, hnvo been completely
cured, and tho patient restored to sound health
by tho CUorry 1’ectoral. »• «*“
