It is our candid opinion that these

W. P REPLIES.
Mr. Editor: IS. Piuribus Ununi
reminds me of the man whose mule
ran away. He was of the stripe of
K. I’luribus and liked the excitement
of' I he i >no lion e wagon.
Driving along one day. he came to
a hill in the road, and Balaam, being
of a philosophical turn of mind,
came to a halt. After cudgeling him
awhile to no purpose, lie was becom
ing desperate when, to his relief, lie
saw a dm lor coming along the road.
“Hello doctor;" cried he “I want
some turpentine. Turpentine?” re
plied flic doctor, whal the devil do
you want with turpentine? “Wal”
replied the one horse man scratch
ing his head, “this 'ere mule's stop
ped and 1 to make
Ilf

lightening and was out of sight
pii ker than Towaliga or Civis.
Now, doctor,” quick,” jelled the
one horse man. jumping up excited
ly ; “quick, for Hod s sake rub some
on me. .I've got to eateh that ere
mule or die.
That’s what's the matter with* E.
Piuribus. lie-anxious ahoutVivis
ami Towaliga. and wants somobodv
to put turpentine on him. Well, I
can do it. Imt 1 need a scouring mop,
fbr 1 11 have to rub it all over him 1
suppose.
Ho accuses V. P. and T. of "rain
ing classical literature upon the peo
pic.' Being unaccustomed to such
elegant shower baths, he doubtless
feels as uncomfortable as would an
I, hinder with the dirt and whale
oil disturbed on his tilthy carcass.
It is safe to assert, that this accusa
tion will never bo brought against
E. Piuribus I nunt. An alligator
would crawl lit'.y miles for a bath
niter being caught in one of Ins
ssowers, lie says "they make a tine
ligure playing clown, but the people
are not running a circus just now.”
Vi ell from the chattering of the
monkeys and the braying of the
stripod zebras, 1 didn't know. Any
way. tho band wagon has passed
through, tho drum has boat, tho
tents are up. and tho concert is now
open. Tickets tor the eoucert, K.
t'luribus. \Vhat lie "thinks ' o! the
history of tho past eighteen hundred
years, doesn't amount to much just
now. In ail probability, he knows
very little history. These grandilo
quent phrases are like a plank over
u liole, and only serve to discover
the dark nos-, heneath. Of course,
iu his mind "principle is subordinate
to expedients'’ or subordinate to
anything else that will further his
little designs. He says “we should
moderate it to suit the exigencies of
the moment.’' L suppose that not
only the principle hero involved,
but tho very ibundatian of truth and
justice itself, would suffer from a
"inode: at ion" that would lit his ex
alted ideas. Hut wSat exergencies
pray? What dire calamity threat
ens our prosperity and peace? The
people are quiet, ami entice is unob
trusive in bis polities. This very
fact was boasted by t’ivis as being
born of the present law, and yet
your astute scribbler with a confu
sion .it tongues worthy the builders
of Babel, declares that “the exergen
cies of the moment demand it.
Wh at bosh ! \\ o hope the great
‘•scalped" will take him down alter
this and tie him in the hack yard,
where he can bay the moon with
more comfort. It is a matter of
some surprise among the rabble,
that the polished autocrats of the
4i op|>osition" should allow their sil
ver trumpet to he sounded in this
Style.
Your Allxconi allows himself to
become fa el ions. He speaks ot your
correspondsnts as "college students
and likens them unto the renowned
Butler. If this is intended as wit,
ho should have kindly added a lew
notes and explanations to render it
more distinct.
I will just remark here, that
while "having one eye on the rep
resentative hall and “looking from
the tower of their greatness with
Compassion on the down trodden
masse* they still reserve an off eye
for the tnc-ties of some whose arched
and sw<>!en necks will yet purple
w ith the tightening cords of ]>oliti
cal justice. He ends this paragraph
by *nying “we think the people see
tin snake in the grass.” Yes, they
sec the snake. The grass, that
grows in the court house yard, aint
leg enough to hide the scaled and
ir c ;d f.ilds that arc coiled about the
in v ! <•::. in t he shape of a jury com
mission, nor the reptile who.-e hi.s
--• ng longue and low, insidious cun
ning has slimed it with deadly ven
om. 1 thank thee, JoW. And
liicv unotimr “snake. It is the
anaconda of truth and justice that
w b rush tin life from the swelled
and fuming thing, expediency, ami
liiirv the broken corpse in an tin -
honored grave. They clutch this
little stick with the tenacity of a
drowning man to a straw, and they
call ujsm their little God's with all
the vehemence of the prophets of
Baal on Carmel s dusty heights.
But it i* only a question of time.
The people arc set in deadly enmity
against it strong as the implacable
law. “the seed of the woman shall
bruise the serpents head.
As E. Piuribus sighs for the logic
of facts, we propose a deduction from
some of your own remarks Mr. edi
tor, concerning Col. Ben Turner's
“reasonably fair pleading for tree
suffrage.” You say this is no argu
ment in favor of a change, but that
the present system has been the
men ns of freeing the county from a
thirty-live thousand dollar debt
within the last nine years. The
nine years carry us back /to 187 b.
We are then to suppose that the debt
was at its maximum, ilow about
the act creating the board in 1872 ;
was it not in operation from that
period ? Public servants are not
judged so much by their well mean
ing and integrity so far as relates to
their individual actions, as bj* the
invariable fixedness of successful
administration. Every man is hon
est until proven a rogue, but honesty
is not always a concomitant of capaci
ty. Can your “Air Sailor” discover
any facts hovering around those
premises. If not, drop us a card
and we will elucidate. \Y. P.

A Blind and Deaf Woman.
Miss Minnie Wallace, of Atlanta,
lost her hearing, her sight and sense
of taste. Sores covered her body
and limbs. Her joints were swollen
and painful, her limbs paralyzed, ap
petite lost, and she was eking out a
miserable life. Six bottles of B. B.
B. restored her sight and hearing,
relieved all aches and pains, added
flesh and strength and she is now a
well woman. Write to her.
A prominent Alabama physician
said : “A patient who was almost
dying from the effects of Tertiary
Syphi 11is and who had been treated
by several noted physicians without
benefit, used one dozen bottles
of B. B. B. and was entirelv cur
ed. lie had ulcers on his arms and
the bones protruded through the
flesh and skin at the elbow, and
death seemed inevitable.”
Nervousness.
Nervousness is the result of an
impoverished condition of the nerve
fluid, and preys more alarmingly
upon the general health than any
other class ot chronic diseases.
Where will you find the comsump
tive, the dyspeptic, the gouty or
rheumatic and hepatic patient, whose
first symptoms were not of a nervoes
character, and which continued
more and more to be a complication
1 those diseases, as well as many
others all through to the fatal end ?
Had the first nervous troubles and
sleepless nights been attended to.
the results might, in many cases,
have been different.

EVERYBODY
We arc now on the eve of the opening of another Cotton season. Th
Crops generally through the entire country were never better than now.
As to the cotton crop it is certainly very unusual to hear of no complaint
from any quarter. If August should prove as favorable as the past month,
and the fall season be as usual, the crop will surely be the largest ever
raised in this country. With this flattering prospect before us, we hope to
handle this season not less than ten thousand bales. We will be pleased
to see you at our
ROCK FIRE PROOF
WARE-HOUSE
where we will be prepared with ample facilities to handle all the cotton
that may be brought us, —let it be ten thousand or fifty thousand bales, tiio
more bales, the more we will be pleased, we promise immediate payment for
cotton, the money will at all times be on the spot. We will buy, or make
liberal cash advances on cotton stored with us, or ship us you may desire.

weights, and kind treatment.
