■•WOE INTO HIM THAT GIVKTH
HIS NEIGHBOR DRINK.”
l lUbakhtk, xi. 13.
BY A GOOD TKMFLAU.
Oh! yc who sell the liquid fire
To madden and destroy,
Tlmt withers every budding hope,
And blasts each household joy—
Oh ! think awhile—have you not hearts
To feel for human woe?
All may not have the strength of mind
Temptation to forego.
The seed yc plant is bringing
A harvest, oh, how dread!
’Tis watered with the bitter tears
By wives and mothers shed.
Oh! stop, I pray, and view its fruit,
’Tis ripening at thy door.
Then place before thy fellow man
The rtnnminsr bowl no hi ore
Have you no fond, no loving one,
Who round your heart-strings twine,
Whose life may reap the bitter fruit
Planted by hand Os thine?
Go look upon thy prattling boy,
And pat his noble head;
But oh! remember, though lie's born,
Vet, yet lie is not dead.
That poor, forsaken, reeling one,
Wns once a noble lioy.
The pride of some fond sister's heart.
Some mother's household joy.
How can you stand and gaze upon
Your quivering victims here,
And think that at the bar of God
With them ye must appear?
Ye men of God, why will yc stand
In silence all the day,
Nor raise your voices loud and strong
To do Uiis sin away ?
Your sluggish blood so slow ly flows,
Or, stagnant as a pool,
You’ve learned to live, and think, and feel,
And speak, perchance, by rule.
Go reach to him a helping hand,
And bid him hope once more,
Nor by your cold indifference
Thus aid to sink him lower.
Oil! hid him slop-this moment stop
lie's just on ruin's brink;
Another step, nnd 'nenth the waves
Os infamy he'll sink !

LETTER FROM BENNIE
FACT® IS.
Mr. Editur, My Dear Bun
Jest allow a lctle spasc of groun in
yer paper if you plecse to gin all cre
ashun a liecring.
Mister Editur, my deer sur, i take
my pen in ban to inform you as to
how i’m well an Betsy atm am well,
an all the childurns has got the hoop
in cough and the eech, an is cryiu fur
vituls, an hope these few lines may
(Ind you enjoying the same grate
blcasin.
Well, to kum to the pint at wttnee,
Mr. Editur, fur i hain’t wun ov them
kind that goes ail round the honsc to
git in at the frunt dorc, am i, Mr. Ed
itur?—sum does, you kno, but that
haint nun of my bisness, an i haiu’t
goin to hint such a thing to mortal
man. Well then, let us kum to a biz
nos vu of the subjeck. The tothcr
nite, i believe it wur nitc aforelast, as
i wus settin in the kithcu komer nod
din a fairwell chune over the lass
rasher of bnkin i expected my mor
tal gaze to rest on, i had a dreem, an
in that dreem i seed a man, an he
tapped me on the sholder an took me
oph to wun side, an says he to mo,
Bennie, i’se alers had the most sub
limest konsidcrashun fur your down
trodin kondishttu, an i think if you
will take the advise of a fool, you will
be abul in a short time to fill them
yunguus mouths up, an to by Betsy
ami anew bonuet.
Bennie, my dear, as youve tride
everything else, i think you wus cut
out fur a spcckulater fur if yer talunt
dbnt lie in that i can solumnly assure
you, my deer boy, that you will in the
languidgc of a sclcbratid poit, go up
a “sylindrieal tube.”
Mr. Editur, you may safely bet a
peck of seleck hen teeth that if a
thunder-bolt had a struck me scnterly
iu the forrcd, it wouldint a brought
me to a pint of order sooner. Mister
Editur, the sack of the biscncss is,
this was the solcmust warnin i ever
wus eyewitness to siucc i wus born,
fur i wus morn fully awair of the sack
that a furst class perish wus on dock
et an that I wus the defendant in this
transackshun. i looked around me; on
one side i could sec all leven of the
yonguns with a chunk of korn bread
in wun ban an a side of meat in toth
cr, gnawing fur life, an on the tothcr
ban, i could see Betsy with her new
bonit on, which looked so putty an
had sich a powerful koutrol over her
that when a yuug man looked at her
in the mceliu house she couldn't keep
frum wiukin at him to save her life.
Mistur Editor, i assure you all was
pease an happiness in my kontempla
shun, fur i had maid my numeris off
springs happy. I jumped rite up,
struck a trot an a B line fur decon
Jouscs, who helpt me to git up the
follerin advertisement, which i nose
as well as i nose that Betsy aim luvs
me, t’will bring me in large quantities
of clean spondulix:
NOTIS.
All mankine will Not is!
To all whom it may konsern!
Know ye that—i dout like this stile
of kommensiu a ndvertizment—it is
SPmo of tlic ilcacon Jonena frmltah
j ness. As i have bot up nearly all of
i the original stock iu the anty-swear
! ing club of Hawkinsville—a few shers
wus lost by the originel stockholders
who took out thoirn in kussin—i wish
to supply all with a sheer of the need
ful at redused prices. 1 have on hand
enufT stock to bring fifty thousand
kubic feet of said stock to bare in any
given length of time on every square
inch of groun a knsscr walks on.
As the flshin scesun is now ter ban
i wish to supply each and every indi
vidual fisherman with sufyisA-unt
amountof stock tokounter-baiunee all
emoshuns that arises in their manly
bussums on the appearance of that
great bore of the 19th century, the
skeetur. I no that human flesh is
too weak to bear the sketur bills when
they is presented projierly. Let a
sketur make or kommeuse to make a
impresshun au kuss wurds ozes outen
his victim, if said victim haint got
mity good san in his gizzard, or pro

seventeen months. Thurfonq yc boss
af the flshin squad, open yer eyes an

wited to file yer men around this way
an draw euuff rashuus to meat the de
mans of all “Big ingin” ekeeturs,
Bowm skeeturs or any other gnash
un of the Imre- in fraturnity. Large
an fresh arrivals of rcliabul intclli
guucc from skeeturdum brings tlic
moanful nusc that all skeeteriles is on
the tramp, an tlmt each skeetur is
provided with nu bills an a large an
varid assortment of brick-bats under
each arm. Each skeetur is also pro
vided with uu sites, an Madam Bu
rner told me day before yistldy, with
leers iu her tlmt they could
draw wine threw two inch plank
fifteen steps off-han, an never batther
tree hems eyes. So kum up every
body, fishermans or what note, an
provide ycrself with Auty-Kussin
stock iuunqjuntly, if you wish to grin
an endure it.
I will take in xcliaugo boots, butter,
bowls, barlo knives or bangers; wil

Confederate II ehoism. —Wlnitevcr
else may be written about the late
war tlmt may lie true or false, the fol
lowing from the pen of General J. A.
Early, of Virginia, will never be dis
puted :
“ I believe tlmt the world has never
produced a body of men superior in
courage patriotism and endurance, to
the private soldiers of the Confederate
armies. I have repeatedly seen those
soldiers submit, with cheerfulness, to
privations and hardships which would
appear to be almost incredible; nnd
the wild cheers of our brave men,
(which were so different from the
studied hurrahs of the Yankees,) when
their thin.lines sent back opposing
hosts of Federal troops, staggering,
and reeling, have often thrilled every
fibre iu my heart. I have seen with
my own eyes, ragged, barefooted and
hungry Confederate soldiers perform
deeds which, if performed in days of
yore, by mailed warriors in glittering
armor, Would have inspired the harp
of the minstrel, and the pen of tlic
poet.
A Human Body and the Hour of
Dav.—Seat yourself at a table. At
tach a small coin to a thread. Hav
ing placed your elbow upon a table,
hold the thread between the points of
the thumb and forefinger, nnd allow
tho eoin to hang in the centre of a
glass tumbler. The pulse will imme
diately cause the coin to vibrate ns n
pendulum, and the vibrations will in
crease until it hits the sides of the
glass; and suppose the time of the
experiment be at the hour of 7, or
half past 7, the pendulum will hit the
glass seven times, and thou lose its
momentum, and return to the centre,
if you hold the thread after a sutli
cient length of time has elapsed to
convince you that the experiment is
complete. The thread must be held
with a steady hand, or the vibrating
motion will be counteracted. At what
ever hour of the day or uight the ex
periment is made, the coincidence will
be the same.
♦ ► --
Computing Interest.— Wc give the
following rules for computing interest
at 6,8, and 10 per cent. The rule is
so simple and so true that every per
son should post it up for reference.
Six Per Cent. —Multiply any {riven
number of dollars by the number of
days of interest desired, separate the
right figure and divide by six. The
tcsult is the true interest in dollars
aud cents, on such sum for such num
bers of days at C per cent.
Eight Per Cent. —Multiply any
given number of dollars by the num
ber of days upon which it is desired
to ascertain the interest, aud divide
by 45. The result will be the interest
on such sum for the time required at
8 per cent.
Ten Per Cent. —Multiply the same
as above and divide by thirty six and
the result will show the amount of
interest at ten per cent.
X-gr The total number of graves of
Federal soldiers now recorded in the
printed forms published by the Quar
termaster’s Department, amount to
about 193,000. There yet remain to
be printed the records of about 120,-
000 graves, forming an aggregate of
300,000, of which the names of 100,-
j 000 occupants will probably never be
| found out.

A SEItnOW.
My hearers, I shall draw forth the i
horns of my argument from the fol
lowing hymn;
Tills world is nil a fleetin' show
To man's illusion given ,
Never aspire where you can’t set,
Or to the airth you'll fail.
1 agree with the tavern keeper, who
said when the circus company sloped :
without payin’ him for grub and !
grog, “this world is all a flectiu’ show,”
and I also side with the hungry man,
who cried out in the bustin’ agony of
his heart, when he saw a cooked pig’s
head shockin’ in the magic lantern, i
that it is “ for man’s illusion given! ”
My friends! you wrap } - our fcclius
around the rotten things of this world
even ns monkeys do their tails around
the unsound limbs of old trees.
When you got high up, you find
your honey-bee holler turns out to be
a hornet’s nest, and when those little
flying bclzebttb’s commence pokin’
their shnrp pointed snouts deep iuto
your carcass, you w iggle about like
an eel iu a fryin’ pan, your tail gets
untwisted, or the limb breaks, Hint
you have grabbed as tight as a leath
er sucker does a brickbat, and you
tall, cowhollnp, upon tlic broken glass
bottles, which arc always strewd un
der the pizen Upas tree of pleasure!
Oh ! the vanity of desirin’ the slippery
paths of this' airth—You run after
cm, you pant, you blow, the perspira
tion runs down you like soapsuds iu
a washing machine, your body' is
covered over with the prickly heat of
anxiety, and your feet with the sot
corner of care and disappointment.
Aud what are all these sufferings for ?
What makes your nose bleed, aud
what makes your blood boil like hot
pitch at a tar gathcrin ? Why you’ve
been running after the great shoat of
mammon! His tail has been dipped
in Satan’s lard kittle, when you think
you’ve got him foul—when you’ve
poured the ashes ol’ vexation on your
palms, when you’ve dipped your lin
gers into the sand glue of experience
and wisdom, so that they’ll stick fast
and no mistake, the cussed critter
gives a grunt like the bustin’ of a
bladder, and his tail slips through
your paws like geese greased lighten
ing.
t)li, my beloved hearers! how awful ;
is your situation in that particular l
time ! You see the hog that you’re j
been runuin’ after all your born days
way on ever so ditto behind! All
your precautions have come to what
hickory wood will in the winter time,
smoke! Your trousers arc split, your
shirt dirty, and your eyes are stream
ing like two lie hoppers on a rainy
day. Your head aches, aud you sec
tlic sea turtles nnd canvass backs
rootin’ straight into your skull The
fleas of dispondency bite you through
the da}', and bed bugs as conscience,
as big as a sheep, keep you from sleep
at night. You’re worse than a man
with his hands tied, lying naked in a
bayou, without a musketo bar. Out
of remorse springs just about ten
million muskcclos, with comic stock
ings ou their legs, aud augers in their
mouths, all boriu strait through aud
through your body, and liilin up the
hole with cow itch and skunks cologne.
Your situation is too numerous to
mention. Tlic molasses hogshead of
generosity and good feeling is staved
in, and the sweet stream of kindness
and humanity is mixiug with the tar,
dead dogs aud drunken niggers lying
about on the levee of vice and immor
ality. The Mississippi of love is at
low water. The steamboat of prayer
and the broml horn of faith, botli la
den with the ricli cargo of the country
above, got cruelly snagged on the logs
of despair; and both sink deep in the
yallcr mud of sin! the catlishcs of
hell, which are born in the biliu spring
of intemperance, float around your
brains aud the screech of owls of sor
row set boohooiu in the lien rooii of
your hearts. You're deserted and
despised—you’re no moro uco to tho
world thau a pair of goggles are to a
stone blind man, and you’re no more
use to yourselves than a problem of
Euclid to u nigger baby !

From tlic Prairie Farmer
A I'arner’i Experience.
That the success of farming is ir
experience.
That to usk a man’s advice is not
stooping, but often of benefit.
That to keep a place for everything
in its place, saves many a step, ancl is.
pretty sure to lead to good tools, and
to keep them in order.
That kindness to stock, like good
shelter, is a saving of fodder.
That to fight weeds is to favor
grain, and do juste? to your ncigl
hors.
That in making home agreeable,
you keep your boys out of the city.
Tlmt it is a good thing to keep at
eye out on experiments, aud note all,
good and bad.
That is a good thing to grow into
farming— not jump into it.
That it is a good rule to sell yout
grain when ft is ready.
That the first mellow soil iu the
spring is your mellowest, and should
first be put in.
That all of farming is summed up
in the manure heap on the farm.
Tub Fatal Shirt—lt Causes tig
Deatii of Six Persons From s
physician practicing in Kentucky, wi
obtain tlic following details of a sin
gularly tragic story:
“A short time ago a white mat
living near Hopkinsville bad an at
tack of small-pox. He was not very
neat in his habits, or else he had poo:
nursing, as lie did not change his shir!
during his entire illness. When con
valcsccnt, lie gave the garment to r
negro woman, witli the injunction to
bury it deep in the ground, for fear of
communicating the dreadful disease
to others. But aunty was of a utilita
rian turn, and thought it a sin to
throw away so good a shirt while thcr.
was so many backs to cover. So sh<
submitted it to a careless sort o
washing, and presented it to her huf
band, who appeared at church tin
next Sunday in all the glory of r
4 biled shirt.’ The next day he wa
seized with small-pox, and died soo:
after—and so did five others, wh<
successively came into possession o>
this garment of death.”
The above statement is vouched for
by our informant, aud we give it a;
i told us. It may be truly remarked that
tlic shirt was more terribly fatal thai
the fabled garment of Nessus, for thi
latter terminated tiic career of but on<
victim—Hercules—while the forme!
brought six loyal voters to an untime
ly grave Nashville Banner.

Southern Factories —According
to an estimate recently published, t.
spinning mill that will employ 8" op
eratives, and consume 887 bales ol
cotton a year, would cost not exceed
ing $50,000, and could be made to re
turn a yearly profit, of $17,000. j*
this be the ease,Whe day c«nnot be far
distant, says tlya St. Louis Republi
can, wjsn cotton manufactories will
s* and iu the midst of cotton fields
and the great staple undergo tin
transformation process on tlic vert
soil which produces it. When tlmt
time arrives, tho commercial and fiuan
cial independence of the Southern
States is fixed on an immovable fouu
dat ion.
How To Pi.aue Your Beds.—A
physician writing to a Dublin medi
eal paper, advises that a bed should
be placed with the head to the North.
The electric currents passing around
the earth affect the nervous system,
and sleeping with the head to the
North, the effect on the system is
more beneficial than any other posi
tion. He tried the experiment with
sick jmrsons, and with the most satis
factory results. Those who have
beds should try it; those who have
not can sleep with their own heads to
the North; perhaps it will do just as
well.
