I gave her a rose and gave her a
ring, and asked her to marry me
then ; but she sent them all back —
the insensible thing—and said she’d
no notion of men. I told hor I had
oceans of money and goods—tried to
frighten her with a grow' ; but she
answered she wasn’t brought up in
the woods to be scared by the screech
of an owl. I called her a baggage
and everything bad ; I slighted her
features and form , till at length I
succeeded in getting her mad, and
she raged like a sea iu tho storm. —
And then in a moment i tinned and
smiled, and called her toy angel and
all; she fell in my arms, like a wea
risome child, and exclaimed, “We
will marry next fall.’

Editors Constitution ■ Your cor
respondent had tho pleasure of being
at Icovillo cn the occasion of tho pic
nic of the Hibernian Benevolent So
ciety, a few days since, and had his
ideas so mixed up with pretty women,
music, dancing and picnicing gener
ally, and ice making, that he has had
some trouble in arranging them to
fit the limits of an article for your
paper. lie will attempt, however, to
toll your readers who were so unfor
tunate as not to he present, what ho
knows about making ice.
Tho works called Iceviilo arc on
the banks of the Chattahoochee river,
bet ween the old railroad bridgo cross
ing and tho presont bridgo on the
State Iload. The buildingeontaining
the machinery, etc., is about throe
hundred feet from the river. It is
part in excavation with stone walls
and part in wood about thirty by
thirty, and twenty feet high. At
one end there is a gallery or platform
about ten feet from the first tloor on
which the ice is made. There is a
steam boiler in one corner on the
lower floor, and there are divers
tanks, cylinders, pumps, pipes, etc.
Tho still is perched pretty high up
over the boiler, and the ammonia
pipe is near it.
The water of the river is pumped
up by steam through a largo iron
pipe to the first floor, 85 feet above
the river, and thence to a reservoir
enclosed in earth about 98 feet above
tho river In this reservoir the wa
ter settlor, and from it the still is
supplied The still, of course, has
its “worm” and condenser and fur
nishes the water pure of which tho
ice is made. The distilled water is
conveyed in pipes to the before men
tioned platform at which it is deliv
ered through two flexible pipes into
the tin cases in which it is to be fro
zen.
The ammonia vessel is a tall cylin
der about twenty feet high standing
on end, it is covered with coarse cloth
and contains coils of pipe, through
which the steam passes to volatilize
the ammonia contained in the cylin
der and surrounding the steam pipe
coils. Haro the ammonia is convert
ed into gas, and is forced through
pipes to two tanks, side by side with
a passage between them, on the sec
ond floor or platform. T hese tanks
contain some thousand feet of pipe,
! through which the refrigerating am
! menia gas is rapidly forced. The
I pipe in the tanks is so arranged -is to
| leave space for the immersion of
ninety-six tin cases. 3x9x30 inches
each, and they—the pipes as well as
the tin eases—are surrounded by wa
ter saturated with common salt
(chloride of sodium). The gas of
ammonia, after passing through the
pipes in the tanks and absorbing the
caloric of the. water, is condensed
with very little loss and is used again
and again.
The refrigerating tanks are like
two large chests, their top covers
] have uinety-six oblong apertures
I about 4xlo inches, and each of these
have a cover marked No. 1 to 90.
which keep them constantly close.
Opposite the end of each tank there
is an aperture in the floor about the
same size of those in the tank, and
near these there are two hot water
| wells just large enough to admit a
| tin case. Near these are two low
! tables, with their tops inclined, on
which the ice cakes are shaken out
of their moulds, and close by a large
table holding a bucket of water, etc.
In making ice two men are engag
ed, one of them slips a tin case into
its’ hole in tho floor and then turns
tlie flexible hose into it, which on
reaching the bottom opens its own
valve and lets on the wafer; by
means of a cork float, as soon as the
case is filled to the proper depth, the
pipe is lifted and the valve dosed,
thus there is no waste of water it the
person attending should happen to
ho otherwise engaged. The case on
the other side is treated in the same
wav and as they aro filled they are
placed iu tho refrigerating tank and
covered- This, at tiist, is a deliber
ate operation, but by the time one
bundled and ninety-two have been
immersed No. 1, or the first put in,
is ready to bo taken out. Now an
extra case is filled with water and
while ouo man takes out that which
has boen frozen the olhet stands
ready to do so, and replaces it with
I bis case of water. Tho Irozuii case,
| after draining fora moment the salt
water from its surface, is dipped into
well of hot water for a second or so,
and then laid, edge up, on the low
inclined table, and a plendid cake of
ieo is shaken out of it. I his is plac

refrigerating tank, take out and put
in oases, as before mentioned. It
goes on like clock work and keeps
the men busy When the second
cake is taken out it is placed on the
first, tho top of which has been sprin
kled with water, they thus freexe to
gether. A third and then a fourth
cake are thus put together, forming
a block, which is carried some fifteen
or twenty feet and packed in an ice
car standing on the railroad track
near the door. If the ice is not in
tended for present shipment the
blocks are carried to an ice house
some thirty or forty feet distant and
stored for future orders.
The cakes of ice thus made are
beautifully transparent. They are
about three inches thick, nine inches j
wide and twenty-six inches long.—
About one and a halt inches of this
length is due to expansion in freezing.
Each cake weighs twenty-one and a
half pounds.
The capacity of the works is an
average of !) tons per day of 24 j
hours —during the summer the day's
work will be about 1 tons, and in the
winter about 11 tons. This rate will
give 2,700 tons or 5,400,000 pounds
per year, which is comparatively a
small supply, but as the trade be
comes established it will be easy to
meet anv demand which may exist
or spring up from the patronage of
the towns and villages on the various
lines of i ail road leading from Atlanta.
That water could be frozen by
means of a chemical operation La?
been well known for years, and ii
would afford a very interesting chap
ter in chemical science to tollow f lie
invention from the freezing of a few
drops of water in a watch crystal,
some forty years ago to its present
success, freezing by the ton, and to
show how a small, amusing, philoso
phical experiment has been magnified
into a manufacture for commercial
purposes. As a very decided South
ern institution, these works are wor
thy tho patrouage of all, and every
man. woman and child at the South,
if they tnke anything, oven to n glass
of water, should insist on having ice
in theirs.
Being made of pure distilled river
water, those who have been accus
tomed, as some of our friends hare
been to the use of “seasoned” water
may object to this ice as being “too
fresh,” but for medYinal purposes or
the full enjoyment of a glass of port
wine, claret or brandy no better can
be applied. I'hilufs.
Brutal Murder by Negroes.
Upon last Friclry night a tragedy,
more horrible in its detail" than ever
occurred in this vicinity, was enacted
at llowoll Station, in Rankin county,
seven miles east of this place. The
details, ns we learn them, are as fol
lows: After dark, upon the night
above named, as the negroes belong
ing to the llowell Station (Vickslmrg
and Meridian Railroad) section gang,
were loafing around the depot at that
place, there came to the crowd, an
aged colored man, who had recently
been employed on one of the adjoin
ing plantations, but was then idle,
and expressed himself as looking for
work. In his conversation with the
hands he remarked that ho could
cure the bite of a snake and had anti
dotes for poison. The cry was raised
by the negroes, “he is a voodoo con
jurer,’’ “search him,” “search him.”
Which was no sooner said than done.
They found a few harmless herbs and
roots in the old man’s pocket, which
confirmed their suspicions, and they
took this old man of eighty years,
tied him hard and fast to the railroad
track, and began heating him. “Kill
him ?” “kill him !” crie<| the infernal
crowd, and the lash came harder and
faster; lie screamed wkh agony, and
making a last desperate effort writhed
himself almost out of the bonds and
into a tire of pine knots lying by the
track, but that effort was his last, for
• the fire burned bis shirt and scorched
his skin and he made no noise. “See!
he is a conjurer,’' they said, nnd again
the lash come down ; they continued
this for some time longer, and loft
him. The next morning he was
found twentv yards from the track
stone dead.* Whether he was able
to drag himself to the spot or was
dragged there by his murderers is
not known, but tho presumption is
the latter. The murderers have l>een
arrested and confined in jail at Bran
don.—Jctcknov (Miss.) Clarion.

The striped snake iz one ov the
slipperiest jobs that natur ever turn
ed loose.
They travel on the lower side ov
themselves, and kan slip out ov sight
like blowing out a kandle. They
wore made for some good purpose,
but 1 never have been informed for
what, unless it was tew hav their
heads smashed.
They are sod tew be innocent, but
tliev Lav got a bad reputashun, and
ail the innocence in the world won’t
cure a bad reputashun.
They liv in the grass, but seldom
git slept on, bekause they don’t stay
long enough in the right place.
When i waz a littlo hoy, and wore
naked feet, and waz loafing around
loose f>i straw berrys, i was often
tin os just a going to stop on a striped
suaik, but it alwus cured me ov straw
berry B.
If a striped snake got into a 10
akre lot before i did, i alwus kousid
ered that all the straw berrys in that
lot belonged tew the snaik.
“Fust cum, fust sane,” was my
motto.
I’m just az Laid of snaiks now az i
was 50 years ago, and if i should liv
tew he az old az Nebudkonnezor waz,
and go to grass a/, he did, one striped
snaik would spile 50 akers ov good
pasture for me.
Wiruuien don’t iuv snaiks enny
more than i do, and i respukt her for
this.
How on earth Eve was seduced by
a snaik iz a fust class mystery tew
uie, and if i liadu’t read it in the
Bible i would bet against it,
I bcleave evretbing there iz in the
Bible; the things i kant understand
i bcleave the most.
I wouldn’t swop opli the faith I h iv
got for any living man’s knowledge.
Snaiks are ov all sorts and sizes,
and the smaller they are the more
I’ui afraid ov them.
I wouldn’t buy a farm at haff price
that bad a striped snaik on it.
I.)ed snaiks are a weakness with
me ; i always respukt them, and when
ever i see a ded one in the road, i
don’t drop a tear o.n him, but 1 drop
another stone on him for fear he
might altor his mind and cum tew
life again, for a snaik hates tew die
just az much ai a kat duz.
1 never could ackwntil foi a snaik
or a kat hateing tew die so bad, un
less it waz bekause tha waz so poorly
prepared for deth.

1 hav raised babys miself, and kuo

If J could hav my way I would

at once, and keep them thare, and
make this footstool one grand nur

I would like tew hav 15. babys
now on my lap, and my lap ain t the
handyest lap in the world for babys,
neither.
My lap iz long onuiT, but not the
widest kind uv a lap.
] am a good deal ov a man, but I
konsi-t ov length principally, and
when I make a lap ov myself, It iz
matrass, but more like a couple of
rails with a jint in them.
I can hold more babys in my Jap
at anco than any man in America,
without spilling ono, but it hurts (lie
babys.
I never saw a baby in my hie that
i didn’t want tew kiss; i am wuss
than an old maid in this respekt.
I hav seen babys that I hav refus
ed tew kiss until they had been

for this, neither waz i.
There are folks in this world who
sav thev don’t luv babys, but you kan
depend upon it, when they waz babys
Bumboddy loved thorn.
Babys luv me, too. I can take
them out of their mother's arms just
az easy azi kan an unfledged bird out

And hero let me say, for the com

that whenever they sue me on the

Thrilling; A clvont tiro—Truth
Strange-1- than Fiction.
On last Satuiday, between two and
three o’clock, Major John B. Stew
ard, who lives on his farm near the
north base of Stone Mountain,
thought he heard the voice of a man
in distress on the steep side of the
mountain. Upon looking up he saw
the head of a man, and saw him
waiving his hands for succor. The
man called to Major Steward for a
drink of water, and said that ho had
but little money but lie would give it
all to be taken from tho place he
was. Major Steward asked him if he
was not hoaxing him 1 The man re
plied that he was in earnest. Major
Steward was a gallant wearer of the
gray and has a heart always open to
the cry of the distressed. Caution
ing the man to keep quiet, he pro
ceeded at once to town and obtained
assistance.
'I lie news spread like wild tire over
town, and every heart ran out in an
guish for tho condition of the unfor
tunate one. Those who went to the
rescue made “quick time” to got
there- Men were stationed at the
base of the north side to signal the
party on top at what point to de
scend.
Securing the rope to a cedar tree
firm 1 v imbedded betweon two massive
rocks, Col. J. T. Willingham and F.
F. Julian made tho perilous descent
to rescue the man. About throe hun
dred feet from the top of tho moun
tain they came to him. He was
lying in a gulch, or water course fur
rowed out of the rock by rains. Ono
foot was jammed iu a crevice and tho
other bent under Ids body, lie was
bugging the rock closely, while one
hand was grasped iu the strap on the
collar ol Ins coat. A small tablet
of rock, two or throe feet long, and
a foot or so wide, was all that was
between him and a fall of somo
twelve hundred feet to the ground,
Had ho moved two or three feet,
either to the right or loft, he would
have been precipitated twelve hun
dred feel to the bottom, aud only a
horrible mass would have been found
to tell the tale.
lie hae lain there from Friday
evening late until Saturday evening
about 5 o’clock, a period of nearly
twenty-four hours. His anxieties and
sufferings were intense no doubt.
Ilia foot wero swolon, lacerated and
blistered by the hot rocks; the sun
poured upon him its fiercest rays,
causing the most excruciating thirst,
and producing almost entile blind
ness. Death seemed to stare him in
the face on ail sides. Return, with
out friendly aid, he could not. lie
was afraid to move, either to the
right or left, or get up, for that ter
rible fall was beneath him. Without
succor, he m ist die a lingering, tor
turing death of thirst and starvation.
In adjusting the rope several rocks
were*tu the way and fearing that the
rope might dislodge them and bring
them down on the unfortunate man,
they wero removed and thrown off in
such a direction as not to strike on
the spot occupied by the man.—
With a crashing noise they rolled to
tho brow of tho precipice on aline
with him, and then plunged down
that terrilHo distance, burying them
selves in the earth at the base.
Reaching the base, tho rope was
tied around the man, and, assisted by
Colonel J. Willingham, he was con
ducted to a place of safety, anti Mr.
Willingham returned then and as
sisted Mr. Julian to got back. Upon
reaching the summit, the rescued
man was so thirsty that he would
have emptied a bucket ot water at
one or two draughts had he l>een suf
fered to do so. lie was cat lied to
Col. Willingham’s store and carod
for. Much praise is due to Major
Steward, Col. Willingham and Iff I*.
Julian for their praise worthy and
humane efforts.
