Journal: The natural, or acquired preeminence of most of the cities and towns of this grand old State, is a matter of local pride to the denizens thereof, In point of fact there are so many excel lent and commendable features in the vari ous sections of our State that it would be no easy task to name them. But in our opin ion the live ligtle city of West Baing BOIEY to the front with more reasans far self-con gratylation than any city in our State, or perhaps, of our sister states. She has a list of civic honors worn by her young men, that would even have made the “Gate City” jubi lant. See what her (West Point) boys have done. R. 8. Griggs was valedictorian, with first hongrs in the dental departigent of the University of Tennessee.

Ferat palmam qui merwif Now when we refiget that the yaung nen who bear off those honors were once stu dents of Pro. F. M. Blount's (formerly of West Point but now of Smyrna) and doubt less owe nq small share of thelr success to the pains-taking and mental training that they received at his hands, we feel that this community has a right to feel compla cent for having such an educator in our midst, and, if some of the Smyrna boys don't “take the eake” ut same futyre “walk,” the fault will rest at home.

Northeutt, horn in Henry county, Ga., Dec. 23rd, 1824; died in Marietta, Ga., June 16th, 1885, Mr. Northcutt was one of a family of eleven children, six of whom had preceded him in death. He was the seventh son of Alexander and Lucy Northcutt, and was raised to young manhood on their farm place in Henry county. At an early age, having been employed by a firm in Bartow, county, Ga., he engag ed in the general merchandise business, which he followed with that uprightness which left him after thirty-six years of hard work a poor man, save for the respect and esteem of all who knew him intimately, hav ing arpraised him according to the integri ty of his character rather than by the amount of his earthly possession. At the age of twenty-six, he married Miss Eveline Dorsett, of (“hattooga county, Ga., and, after her death, her sister, then Mrs. Fannie Marlow, of Marietta, Ga. ~ Again, losing his second wife, he married ‘and brought from the State of New York a ‘third, who was destined to cherish his old ‘age, and tenderly watch over his last earthly moments; who now is left doubly bereaved, inasmuch as in his death she has lost both a husband and all ties which constitute a home, For many years he was a member of the Methodist Church, in which he was trusted and respected. At length, however, rather because of his disagreement with the pecu liarities of that denomination than because of any diminution of religious fervor or trustful confidence in his Savior Christ, he practical ly withdrew from it. Many there are who do confidently and assuredly aver with me, “An excellent spir it was in him.” His loyalty to his Master was ever evinced by upright dealing, for which we have the abundant testimony of his oldest business associates, a fervent love for the Savior, a childlike faith in things di vine, a reverent searching of the scriptures until he knew the text of the lnspircdp One as few knew it, and a great desire to obey its commands and follow in the footsteps of Jesus. No subject interested him so much as those of religion; nothing seemed half so sure or so dear as the Heavenly Inheritance. Christian charity marked his conversa tion. Seldom were words of disparagement heard from his lips. As he neared the end of his natural life, it became my good fortune to win his confi dence and to discover the man under the constant disguise of his habitual reticence. And 8o it is with confidence that I bear will ing testimony that he died, as a child of God should die, in “full assurance of faith, having the heart sprinkled from an evil con science and the body washed with pure wa ter”—even the laver of Regeneration. To those upon whom this bereavement falls heaviest, Kis wifeand children, our sym pathies’are offered with prayers that God may be both a Protector and l‘xather to those whom His death-angel has despoiled. May we all with him, “have boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus, by a new and living way,-which he hath con secrated for us.” C. C. LEMax, Rector St. James' Churgh. ~ ..ADELINA PATTI, the great songstress, says of Solon Palmer’s Perfumes, Toilet Boaps and other Toilet articles: *‘l unhesi tatingly pronounce them superior to any I ever used.”” Principal Depot, 374 and 376 Pearl Bt.. New York —_—————— Tired and Languid Women. How many women there are of whom these words are true: “They feel languid and tired, hardly able to bear their weight ‘on their feet, the bloom all gone from their cheeks, irritable and cross without meaning to be, nerves all upset, worried with the chil dren, fretted over little things, a burden to themselves, and yet with no acute disease.” What a pity it is.

There wasa man in our town, and he was wondrous wise, for when he marked his prices down, he then did advertise. And when he saw his trade increase, with all his might and main he marked still low er every price and advertised again. And when he advertised again it made his rivals roar, to see the people rush to him and pat ronize his store. And while they sat in solitude and saw him custom win, that man behind the counter stood and raked the shekels in. And when he raked the shek els in and saw his fortune rising, he took a 2oodly lot of tin and kept on advertising.
