Rogkus, G A XVritEhfao, Snp't Gen Pass Ag't. Savannah. A Growing Evil. Cuthbort Enterprise. One of tho most prevalent evils of the day, and one which cannot be too strongly condemned, i.s the ten dency to take into the family circle strangers whom circumstanced may have sent this way. Kecentiy tho Americas jail contained two men who had won the affect ions of girls and married them, too, while they had wives and families in other sec tions demanding their time and as sistance. This state of‘things can be traced in many cases to the indifferences of parents in choosing associates for their children. For this neglect, many times, girls of a romantic turn meet and are attracted by the tas'-i --nating wavs of somc-scmindrcl, who. familiar with the world, knows the chicanery necessary to secure the adoration of the unsophisticated girl. She dreams of him as some prince to bring her countless fortune, and pictures a life of ease never before thought of. He, of course, encour ages this line of thought until, in an evil moment, she is induced to run away from home to marry the veriest sort of rascal. The pangs of regret and sorrow, when she comes to real ize that a life has been ruined, can never be known to the"outside world. It is too late then for the parent, to correct his mistake. He realizes h s helplessness to minister to the grief of tiis child, and can only apply to the law for redress of a wrong too great for any penalty commensurate except death. He who allows a stranger whose past life arid conduct is unknown to pay attentions to his family can expect nothing hut shame and mortification to be the outgrowth. A Wi’y Debtor. We wore told last week of a lit tie episode that took place in Fay ette county about two years ago, but even now it will not be amiss to repeat it. A merchant in this town held a mortgage against a mule belonging to a Fayette farmer, ami the farmer, to evade the seizure of the mule, built him a stable with a partition, and as his premises were on the county line, he had a stable in both Clayton and Fayette. So, when the paper was turned over to a bailiff from Fayette for execution, be would drive the mule over in Clayton, and vice versa. This baffled the mer chant for a while, is the mule could lie transferred easier than he could shift bailiffs ; but after n few weeks fruitless attempts to reach the mur, the merchant secured the services oj a bailiff from each county at the same time and attached the mule. So tho mule was about to be brought to Jonesboro, but the defendant paid the mortgage and retained the mule.—Jonesboro News. Under the canons of the Episco pal church, tho bishop is allowed thirty days in which to pronounce sentence under the verdict of the court, and Bishop Beckwith allowed Dr. Armstrong half of his time, or fifteen days to make a plea for anew trial or to petition for a light sen tence. The fifteen days.having ex pired last Friday, Hon. John S. Da vidson and Mr. Hoke Smith, counsel tor Dr. Armstrong, called on Bishop Beckwith, at his residence, and turn ed over to the reverend gentleman what is supposed to be an appeal for anew trial, reciting the discovery of new and important evidence, etc. Accompanying this plea is a com munication from friends and admi rers of Dr. Armstrong praying mercy at the hands of the bishop. The bishop will now have fifteen days in which to pronounce sentence. A Q UESTION AB O UT~ Brown's Iron Bitters ANSIVERED.

An Extract from the Official Bulletin of the Encampment—Something Abcut the Arrangements Being Made—The Outlook for a Great Event. Tlie official bulletin of the grand encampment drill and tournament to occur in Savannah during the first week in May uext has the fol lowing in reference to the event f “The early history of the Chat ham Artillery has presented to the corps no more hallowed association ! than the personal friendship and encouragement it received from Washington ; and for this reason the camp, by common consent, shall commemorate his name. After a hundred years, we resurrect his name and apply : t to a scene of life and of military life, bustle and gay ety. The flower of the southern and northern troops as they stand on this very spot where Washington walked in his tour of examination of the earthworks thrown up by the defenders and the besiegers of Savannah, shall remember, with pride, the first commander in chief of the anm T and navy of the United States, and the first who gave to its troops a place in history and fame among the armies ot tho World. CAMI WASHINGTON tvill be pitched in the southern por tion ot the city, to the south of An derson street and to the right of where the beautiful Vernon shell road begins, and at, or about the spot where the present baseball park stands, the use of which, by the courtesy of Colonel J. H. Estill, pro prietor of the Savannah Morning News, has been tendered to the committee. On its right runs the Charleston and Savannah railway with its steam railway and its street car linos, and below its southern edge tlie Savannah, Florida and Western railway takes its air-line into the city. A better site could not have been selected. Level and green like a lawn, with an abun dance of pure water for drinking and for bathing purposes; not two hundred yards from the cooling shades of Concordia park ; conve nient of access, with street car and railway,lines to the gates, four hun dred feet from the drill ground, ‘not six minutes walk from the heffrt' of the city, and convenient to aii the fun that will be going on, it would be difficult to find a better or more desirable place. A restaurant inside the encamp ment will furnish a good supply of wholesome food at not more than fifty cents a meal, and as it will ca ter to military alone, every effort will be made to have it satisfactory. There will be no oeeassion for any one to bring his knapsack full of bard tack. onf: thing more. The management of this drill and encampment desire nothingso mujff as the fullest enjoyment of the troops that are coming. The drill itself, and the months of previous preparations are severe enough without adding unnecessarily to the hardships of the volunteer soldier in this glad time of peace and re joicing. .Nothing adds more to this severity than the doing of full guard duty, necessary indeed, in time of war for the protection and discip line of the army and not improper in time of peace where the duties ot camp life and the education of the soldier are the chief objects of the encampment. But for this occasion, the quantum of guard duty actually : necessary to protect Camp Wash ington will be reduced to a minimum having tlie camp enclosed by a fence twelve feet high—and what that minumum should be, is left an easy problem for the authority do signaled to command the encanvp iiu nt. THE PRILL GROUND is four hundred feet nearer the heart of the forest city than the en campment. It is a misnomer to call Savannah a forest city at this point, tor the place is almost entirely devoid of trees, but smooth and level and covered with a rich carpeting of grass. On this peautiful plain, high and dry. the drill ground lias been placed, well enclosed and flanked by grand stands, hippo drome seats, restaurants and booths. In the open areas ot this reetangu ; lar place cleared, leveled and rolled, encompassed by a great cloud of i witnesses, the representative troops I of a score or more sovereign states will struggle for the mastery, in a ; contest which, for its brilliance of | show and tor the intense interest ! and excitement it kindles, both in the actors and spectators, has no equal in the institutions of the day. Here the infantry will wheel and charge upon his imaginary foes with faultless precision and movement, here the red-legged, red-capped zouaves will skip with lightning like manual and evolution, here the stalwart cannoneer will work his gun through all the phases of battle i and extermination, and here the ; gallant hussar will east a glance on j the grand stand as he goes by in the ; maddening charge, as all eyes follow him and all hearts stand still until he clears the iast flag. The preparation ofithis ground for the drill and tournament, to give it tlie exact conditions of firmness and level necessary, will engage the host attentions of the committee. Surgeon Lincoln, ot the Chathams, will be on hand with a full corps of assistants to render speedy assistance to all who fall beneath the Iheat and ex citement of the contest. THE COMPANIES jBNTTItUD. The first of February, 1886, finds the committee in charge in a posi tion to announce the assured success of tho drill and tournament. We believe, as we stated in answer to n aoy letters of inquiry, that in May. Savannah will witness one of the most brilliant military gatherings ever assembled in the south. On every side we receive only words ot encouragement. All ‘Savannah is enthused with tho expectation over the coining event. THE TOURNAMENT. The cavalry tournament will be a novel and attractive feature in con nection with an infer-siate drill. There are thirty-two cavalry com panies in South Carolina, ten in Georgia, and seven in Florida. The interstate tournament-given by the Georgia Hussars, at Savannah, in April ot last year, was a brilliant success in every way, and the horse manship displayed waa. pronounced to bo exceliont. 1 n ac®rdance with the wishes of all who saw that tilt, one day ot the centennial week will be devoted to tlie cavalry There is no country in the world that fur nishes more beautiful rulers than the South Atlantic states, and the tour nament will be revelation to those who have never witnessed such an , j qsgr event. +&o — A What are the Caauces.

Now, east up the aero,tint and see what the chances are for the democ hicy controlling the senate. In speaking of this stale of affairs the Washington correspondent of the Atlanta Capitol says: “In the elec tions held so far the democrats have gained a man, Daniel, of Virginia, who will succeed Mahone. Gorman and George have been re-elected, and so lias Sherman, and it i.s ad mitted that Fair, who has a pile of hard cash, can come ba -k from tho eayote district of Nevada. The sen ate stands to-day forty-two republi cans to thirty-tour democrats. So the latter have only to gain four seats to have a tie and five seats to have a clear working majority. They have one of these. Where are the other four to come from? They must be from the doubtful states, like California, Connecticut, Michi gan, New York, New Jersey and Wisconsin. Can they be had? A Michigan member says that Conger will go out in his state if the presi dent wiil tote fair with the Michigan democrats, which, it is claimed, he has not been doing. It may be that he will tote fair with all democrats now that the republican senate is showing symptoms of tight. Very much may depend upon his actions tor the next hundred days. We shall see what we shall see.” *<!♦ PATENTS GRANTED. Patents granted to citizens of the southern states during the past week, and reported expressly tor the .Mon roe Advertiser by C. A.

THli MISSING MAN IN THE AT LANTA CASE HEARD FROM The Attorney XVho Conducted the Case in Fort Worth Believes that the At lanta Corpse is Not Weaver— When Weaver Was Last Heard From Etc. Fort Worth, Tex., February 24. —Tomorrow’s Gazette will publish an interview with Robert McCarty and City Attorney Capps, who rep resented tlie plaintiff and the defen dant in the suit for adultery of Mrs. Weaver, ot Indianapolis, Indiana, against Tierce Weaver, or J. W. Pierce, as he was known here. Mc- Carty says that from his knowledge of the financial condition of Weaver, he is satisfied that the man at Atlan ta is not him and he says Weaver was very angry at his wife, on account of her prosecution of him for adul tery, and thinks that ! e does not re veal himself for two reasons, at first, because lie is willing she shall wa*te her money in tlie present suit at At lanta, and second, because lie is still living in adultery with Mrs. Eden, an and tears another prosecution. Capps says that Weaver had only fitly dol lars when he left here in the fall of 1884, and that he went to Indian terrilorry to join Mrs. Eden, the wo man with whom he lived in adultery here. He says Weaver was greatly infatuated with Mrs. Eden, and that they carried on a correspondence until he was lodged in jail here, and after she had jumped the town to escape arrest. Capps received let ters from Weaver about eight months ago dated Chattanooga, Tenn., stat ing that he was closely pressed fi nancially, and urged the collection of the claims in the attorney’s hands. CHOOSE WISELY. We clip the following from the i Marietta Journal because itistimffiy and to the point: This is (die year when most of the public officers of Georgia—members ot the legislature, state house officers, governor and congressmen—are to be elected. It behooves our people to be alert and scrutinize tlie candi dates for the-various public positions with an impartiality of judgment and a decision of choice, that will reflect credit upon thorn. Inferior men, with more brass than brains, with more conceit than conscience, often press forward and by flattery, trick or trade, foist themselves upon the people, who otherwise wound re pudiate them it their lack of true worth, manhood and merit had been known at the time. Therefore, a crucial tost, of the claims of candi | dates should be made and the dross I discarded. “All is not gold that | glitters,” and glittering generalities, | though seemingly plausible, are not always the sure test of ability or the infallible index of character. As in war or love, “none but the brave de serve the tail*,” so in politics, none but the courageous of conviction, brave hearted, competent, capable and honest, deserve public office. There i.s plenty of good materia! in Georgia to till all the offices in the gift of the people. Men who will not lie ; men who will not steal; men who will not accept bribes; men who will defend the rig’ht ot the peo ple against corrupt pilferers; men who are in sympathy with tlie best instincts of humanity; men who will shun the blandishments of the detn [ agogue and the deceptions or' the I lobbyist. Men of mind; irten ot ; principle; true as steel to the right | and an uncompromising foe to tlie ! wrong. Let ns choose wisely and ! elect men to rule Georgia, her mtel- I ligence and wealth. Georgia is the ! brightest star in the constellation ot j states, and she deserves the best i minds, the purest characters and the : most consistent loyalty at the helm, j in the various ramifications of state ! and national government. Thepeo ; pie can have such men if they will. All they have to do is to assert the dignity of their strength and the sovereignty of their right to rule and choose. “Public office is a pub lic trust,” is an utterance of Presi dent Cleveland, and should be em phasized. <>♦ ■ - ■- The Two Sams. In his Monday's sermon in Chica go Sam Small said: “Neither Sam Jones nor I can convert any one here. We don’t go ; around con verting people at so much i a head. We don't want any half way conversions. If we should preach here ten nights, ten weeks, ten months, or ten years, and not a soul should be converted, it would : not weaken our faith. It would only convince us that your hearts were kept stubbornly closed against tlie Holy Spirit. We come here without any terms. “Have we made any, Brother Goss ? ’ “Only gospel terms,” replied the | pastor of the church. “We have said 'nothing about terms,” continued Mr. Small. “I have got enough money to pay my hotel bill, and when that’s gone I can leave town, for I have a free pass. We shall work with you, t nevertneiess, and may God biess the ! words we utter, that they may in duce some to open their hearts to , the Holy Gho.it.” EIGHT DAYS IN A COFFIN. An Extraordinary Case ot Resuscitation from the Grave. Louis vil 1 e Commereial. But a few people in Louisville know William Hancock, who has been living on Market, between Clay and Shelby streets, for the past fif teen years. A reporter yesterday caught a glimpse ot Hancock, who has had a remarkable experience, and bears a mysterious record in the neighborhood in which he lives. A neighbor who professes to know Hancock’s history, yesterday told the reporter the following: “Sixteen years ago Wm. Hancock was a man of some means, living then in Kansas City. He was taken ill, and day by day grew rapidly w>rse. His ailment puzzled his physicians and finally his life was despaired of, and a few days after wards he was pronounced dead. An undertaker was notified, and lie pre pared tlie body for burial. The fu neral took place, and the body was laid in tlie receiving vault, prepara tory to being placed in the ground. Eight days afterward the undertaker and his assistants went to the ceme tery, and while in the act of moving the coffin to tlie fresh dug grave, were startled by hearing a noise in side the coffin. The lid was forced off, and the men wore much mysti fied on beholding the blue color of the supposed corpse. A physician was summoned and an electric bat tery was put to the corpse. In a few minutes William Hancock was on his feet again, after having been supposed to be dead for eight days.” A remarkable particular of the resuscitation was that Hancock al ways preserved the blue color of his skin. He was a tall, thin man, with small whiskers, and so blue was the skin all over his body that it pre sented a peculiar and astonishing appearance. He never stirred away from home except to visit a game at cards with a few friends He moved to Louisville shortly after his re markable resuscitation, which made him the subject of much curiosity in j Kansas City. Hancock lives in strict seclusion, and rarely ever goes out now. He* has but rarely been seen upon the streets. During the time that he lay in the coffin be remembers nothing, and was, so far as any signs given out, dead. THE TONGUE GUARD SOCIETY. - v > “Motto: “ Tf aught good thou canst not say Of thy brother, foe or friend, Take thou then the silent way. Lest in word thou shouldst offend. “Article 1. The name of this asso ciation snali be the Tongue Guard Society. “Article 2. Any person may be come a member of this society by signing the constitution and con forming to its rules. “Article 3. We, the undersigned, pledge ourselves to endeavor to speak no evil of any one. “Article *4. Should we, however, through carelessness break our pledge, we agree for each and every offense to forfeit the sum ofonecent. 'flic money so forfeited to be placed in a box reserved for this purpose, and to be expended semi-annually tor charitable objects. “Article 5. We also agree to use our best endeavors to increase the membership of the society in our town, and to assist in organizing so cieties in other jiiaces. “Article 6. It is, however, under stood that when called upon to give our opinion of the character of an other it shall be done in truth, re membering in what we say the scripture injunction, ‘Do unto others as you would that they should do unto you.”—Ex. Tlie above shows that the people in some sections of our country are beginning to realize that harm is often done by speaking evil of other . Through thoughtlessness and a dis regard of the ultimate result people often say tilings of others, which produce harm. Even light remarks are often made that tend to injure the usefulness of the person about whom they are spoken. This is done often-times with no intent to injure, yet the result is the same. Now if the Tongue Guard Society or any other society will correct this evil, let it be propagated. —— A Chapter on Borrowing. There is in the estimation of some people no worse thing than a mort gage on a farm. The interest is a great cause ot trouble and the pay ment of the principal is fearful to contemplate. But there are worse mortgages tha nthe mortgage on a farm, worse troubles than the pay ment of interest and many a worse thing to contemplate than the final payment of it. Men borrow a great deal besides money that is worse to pay’ than a mortgage. Thyy borrow | a heap of trouble; they fret and worry and are anxious, and make ' their wives and family do the same. This breeds unhappiness at home, ! discontent among the hoy’s, quarrel | mgs and bickerings and angry’ con tentions. and makes home anything but a home of peace and content ment. Borrowing is not necessarily bad, but the borrowing of trouble is one of the most mischievous of evils. NUMBER 6. §sg|l|J @1 Absolutely Pure. This powder never varies.
