The Louisville Courier-Journal
mentions a curious fact, which may
perhaps be profitably remembered by
some of our fruit dealers next spring.
It is that bananas, finer than those
which we have farther South, are
sold in Louisville at 15 cents per doz
en, when inferior ones sell in New
Orleans at 30 cents per dozen. The
Courier-Journal says that they are
imported direct from South America,
Cuba and Jamaica.
Since the law authorizing the use
of the rawhide on the bare backs of
wife-beaters went into effect in Mary
land, twomen have been convieted
in Baltimore for beating their wives,
and have had a chance to experience
the touching sort of punishment
which the rawhide inflicts. The last
one was a young fellow who had besn
particularly brutal to his wife, and
the Sheriff took especial pains to do
his work as if he found real pleasure
init. The supple rawhide twisted
itself entirely around the victim’s
body, and made a long, deep gash,
from which the blook flowed freely.

There is a silent reform going on
under the auspices of Cleveland of
which the public sees and hears but
little, nor is it paraded in the press,
but this reform is none the less effec
tive because of its silence and unob
trusiveness. It is the potent reform
of personal example. The President
and his Cabinet are hard and orderly
workers, placing the duties of their
public services above their private
interests, a principle wich former ad
ministrations exactly reversed. This
personal example is producing a most
wholesome effect upon all the subor
dinate officials in the government.
The great Bartholdi statute, 150
feet high, of “Liberty Enlightening
the World,” has arrived in New York
harbor, where it was received with
the booming of big guns and every
demonstration of enthusiastic joy.
It was brought over on the ship Isere,
provided by the French government,
and was packed in 210 cases. The
pieces will be unloaded by means of
a derrick on the deck of the vessel
and placed under sheds on Bedloe's
Island, to await the completion of the
pedestal. From the base of the pe
destal to the summit of the statute
the distance will he three hundred
feet.
FINANCIAL DEPRESSION.
The New York papers say that the
banks there are absolutely overload
ed with money, millions of dollars
of idle capital shut up in bank vaults,
some of it drawing no interest, but
rusting for want of use. The banks
‘ have refused to take deposits and pay
interest because they can’t put it out
to advantage. Money is offered on
good security at 24, 3 and 4 per cent.
The bank failures, of Ward, Grant,
Fish, Seney and others there and
elsewhere, have scared capitalists to
such an extent that they are holding
on to their money and refraining
from stock gambling and reckless
speculation. In place of seeking out
business investments they are wait
ing for confidence to be restored. In
the meantime, the volume of curren
cy is curtailed and a financial de
pression prevails all over the coun
try. Workmen are idle and clamor
ing for bread. All kinds of trade
limps along, lacking briskness and
activity. A few capitalists being
able to monopolize the wealth of the
country to the. detriment of honest
labor. The toilers who made the
wealth are now the sufferers and
ghiere seems to be no immediate dis
position to infuse new life into busi
ness and give relief. The glut of
money will not be turned loose prob
ably before fall, when crops will have
to be moved and it will take mon
ey to move them. It is believed that
‘dull trade and financial depression
have reached bed rock, and can go
no further, and that the tendency
must inevitably be upwards, and that
by September a general business re
vival will spring up and a new era
of prosperity will dawn upon us.
The Jour~NAL hopes so and will wel
come it with a hearty greeting.
HULBERT REDIVIVUS.
At a meeting held in Atlanta on
Monday last, in the interest of the
proposed railroad from that city to
Columbus, “Col. E. Hulbert” took a
prominent part.
There was a time when Col. Hul
bert was a conspicuous railroad devel
oper. That was in the haleyon days
of Bulock, Kimball and Hulbert.
After the flight of the two leading
members of the firm, Hulbert, the
shrewdest one of them all, attempted
to hold on about Atlanta, but at
length he too sought other pastures.
The partners, however, are now all
back in Atlanta, and two of them
were present at the meeting referred
to. Hulbert offered the resolutions
that were adopted by the meeting.
The following extract from a letter
from Atlanta to the Macon Telegraph
will not be read by people with any
sort of memories without a shrug of
the shoulder :
“While Major Hulbert was up to
his neck in the new railroad, his old
confrere, ex-Governor Bullock, sat a
few steps oft and listened to the dis
tinguisiu—d railroader. Kimball, an
other of the old partners, would have
‘been present, doubtless, butvjust now
‘he is somewhere in the North on
very important business. If Hul
bert, Kimball, Bullock & Co. should
take a notion to build the proposed
road, the people of Atlanta and Col
umbus would be required to do very
little in the matter except put up the
monev.
What interest Hulbert could have
in the projected road, except a ‘*‘de
veloper,” it would be difficult to im
agine Kimball still occupies his
leisure moments building hotels
which he leaves in debt, while Bul
lock is again trying to force the State
to recognize bonds which were issued
during his administration in viola
tion of the constitution. And now
“Col. E. Hulbert” again shows him
self as the friend of railway projects
whose backers have money to throw
away.
The people of Columbus had better
go slow, and be sure to hold on to
theiv Mobile and Girard Railroad
bonds and stock.
GOOD FOR SOMETHING.
The mosquito is by most people
considered to be a pest, a nuisance.
A Galveston man, however, writes to
the New Orleans Times-Democrat
that he regards the mosquito as a
health preserver. In his communi
cation he says: “l never use a bar.
The bite of the mosquito is to me one
of the pleasantest sensations, and 1
also consider it healthy. When I was
sailing before the mast in the lumber
trade between Caleasieu and Galves
‘ton, the swamps along the Louisiana
coast swarmed with myriads of the
genus culex, which would settle
aboard the vessel in dense clouds,
‘driving the Captain and crew below
to the shelter of the mosquito nets,
while T would remain on deck all
night and let "em bite away. 1 have
always been free from the fevers pre
vailing along the low lands of the
const, and attribute my exemption to
the fact that I let the ‘skeeters’ bite
me as much as they pleased, as [ am
confident they purify the blood and
free it from malaria.” There are
hundreds of persons who can testify
to the same thing. It has always
heen regarded as a strange circum
stance that the swampers working in
Louisiana swamps were never affected
by malarial complaints. An investi
gation will show that it is due to the
fact that they are not afraid of mos
quito bites, and will prove further
that when mosquito bars are intro
duced into a camp more o, less ui(-k~l
ness inevitahly follows,
NOT GUILTY.
In the Johnson-Henry case at
Greenville, Tenn., the jury acquitted
Major E. T. Johnson. Thg case has
been in progress two weeks, and at
tracted widespread attention. Sen
ator Voorhees, of Indiana, was the
leading cqunsel for the defense. Cap
tain E. T. Johnson, formerly of In
diana, was arraigned for killing Ma
jor Edwin Henry in Green county,
Tenn., September 234, 1884. Henry
seduced Johnson’s wife more thana
year before, and Mrs. Johnson com
mitted suicide in Indiana.
When the foreman of the jury, in
reply to the question ofthe Clerk,
said that the verdict was “Not guil
ty,” the spectators sprang to their
feet and almost litted the roof off with
their yells. Not wuntil they had
shouted themselves hoarse were they
quieted.
The cheers inside were answered
imlediately by the throng without.
Never was a community more frantic
with delighi.
The jury immediately on retiring
took a ballot, and all twelve were for
acquittal, but believing it their duty
to wade through all the written evi
dence they did so conscientiously
took another ballot, and reported.
The defendant’s son Griffith had
not reached the courf room when the
verdict was announced, but rushing
in immediately afterwards, met his
father just outside the bar sprangin
to his arms, and the two remained
locked in each other’s embrace for
several seconds, while all around were
weeping in a transport of delight.
There is universal joy over the re
sult.
A CONFEDERATE SOLDIER’S PENSION.
On last Saturday Mr. Brooks Thom
as, of Clayton county, received a pos
tal card from Washington stating the
fact that his pension claim had been
favorably passed upon, and that the
money would be forwarded in a few
days. Mr. Thomas was a brave and
good Contederate soldier, andjduring
the war was captured and placed in
prison. He saw to stay in prison
would result in death, so he took the
oath of allegiance and was sent to
the Northwest plains to fight the In
dians. Soon he begame sick and
remained in the hospital to the end
of the war. Mr. Thomas will draw
890 per year for each year since the
war. Principal and interest amount
to about 83,000, besides a pension of
$9O a year during his or his wife’s
lifetime, and is also entitled to a land
bounty of a lot of land.
The Austrian government, it is re
ported, objectsto Mr. Jonas as con
sul to Prague, as well as to Mr. Keily
as minister. Mr. Jonas is a Jew, and
Prague has a large Jewish popula
tion. Minister Keily was objectiona
ble to the Italian Government, be
cause, in a speech made a number
of years ago, he denounced King Vie
tor Kmaneul and expressed sympa
thy for the revelutionary party in
[taly. The Austrian Government
also objects to him, and probably
urges the same reason—his sympa
thy with revolutionary elements in
a neighboring State. But it is be
lieved that the real reason of Aus
tria’s repugnance to him is the fact
that Mrs. Keily is a Jewess.
The growing demand for Southern
iron out West greatly encourages the
the producers of Alabama and Ten
nessee. There has been no material
advance in price, but there isa bet
ltvr feeling in the market and the
furnaces are rapidly selling their sur
plus stock. Much Southern iron is
now being shipped to Chicago, where
it comes into direct competition with
Lake Superior iron. The Pennsylva
nia iron men are rejoiced to know
that the attention of their Southern
competitors is being diverted to the
West. A good deal of Southerniron,
however, still goes East on old con
tracts, and probably the greater part
of the Virginia output is sold to the
Eastern markets.
Miss Helen Gardner is in the fe
male world what Ingersoll is to the
male creation. She isa feminine in
fidel who is going around lecturing
‘women, telling them the reasons why
‘they should not believe in God. She
is described as being a very pretty
little woman, with dark hair and eyes,
and very white beringed hands.
There is one serious defect in Miss
Gardner’s oratory which destorys
‘the effect o her rheteric, and will
‘doubtless cripple her efforts to de
stroy the Creator of the universe.
She talks through her nose.

Nignor Lasati writes that he knows
an enterprising Italian boy who col
lects cigar stumps from the sweepings
of the elevated railway stations and
sells them to the snuff manufacturers.
He pays the company a quarter of his
receipts for the “privilege,” and, as
he colleets about twenty pounds a
day, and sells them for 20 cents a
pound, he gets a clear income of 83 a
day. Snuft takers will be pleased to
know that their habit is of use to
somebody.

At Newnan, while a thunder cloud
was passing, T. A. Sewell was struck
by lightning and knocked down.
His spring is about 300 yards from
‘his house, and tor convenience he
has a telegraph wire to draw water,
with a carriage and bucket attached,
and had just drawn a bucket from
the spring and was drinking out of
the bucket when the wire was struck
by lightning. The bolt ran up the
wire and into the bucket and thence
into Mr. Sewell’s month, knocking
him senseless for some time. His
mouth inside was badly blistered.
It is thought that the lightning lost
its force in passing through the wa

killed.
MOODS.
Don’t yield to moods if you can in
any way avoid it. They rob life ot
much of its enjoyment. The mind is
as much amenable to the will as the
body. The most productive mental
workers in all departments are those’
who have their faculties under discip
line, and who go regularly to their
mental tasks and compel the obe-‘
dience of the mind. |
To those who habituate themselves
to this and hold moods under con
trol there is no difficulty in perform
ing prescribed tasks at allotted
times. And such persons endure
longest, because of the regularity of
their habit. Moodiness is, indeed, a
Tform of disease. It draws on the
‘nerves and gradually leads to nervous
‘ prostration.
What will Surel; Do It.
One's hair begins to fall out from many
causes. The important question is: What
is sure to make it grow in again? Accord
ing to the testimony 6f thousands, Parker's
Hair Balsam will do it. It quickly covers
bald spots, restores the original color when
the hair is gray or faded, eradicates dan
druff, and causes the scalp to feel cool and
well. It is not a dye, not greasy, highly per
fumed, safe. Never disappoints those who
require a nice, reliable dressing.
Frank Leslie's Sunday Magazine
For July begins the Eighteenth Volume
of this popular Magazine with an interesting
descriptive article on “The Cathedral of the
Incarnation,” at Garden City Long Island,
with illustrations of the Exterior and Interi
or of the Cathedral, a view of St. Paul's
School for Boys, the See House, and a Por
trait of Bishop Littlejohn. Two more of the
Parables of Christ are given—'The Great
Supper,” and “The Lost Sheep”’—the latter
with an illustration. Dr. Talmage's sermon
is on the “Noontide of Life;” he contributes
also a tender article on the late “Mrs. Sam
uel T. Spear;” and in the “Editorial Com
ments” he discusses the Threatened War in
Asia, the Doctor, the Pedestal for the Statue
of Liberty, and the Saturday Half-holiday—
all timely topics. Indeed, the whole num
ber has an unusually fresh and timely char
acter. Among some of the more interesting
miscellaneous articles are “ The Sacred Gan
ges,' with three illustrations; and “The
Martyrs of the Bass,”" with two illustrations.
The two serials, Love’s Harvest,” by Farje
on, and “What She Made of her fiife,” by
Mrs. Farmer, progress interestingly, and
