Tue officers ot the Gate City Na

have learned that their defaulting
casaier, Redwine, “biteth like a
serpent and stingeth like an adder.”

The Kansas Supreme Court has
decided that the Republican branch
of the Legislature is the legally or«

sutmitted to the decision.
Envy and lack of contentment
are two of the greatest drawbacks to
huppiness and prosperity in this
country, and the man who indulges
in such evils thoughts will ever re
main an enemy to himselt and his
fellows. .
Tur Brewton, Ala., Leader i 3 re
sponsible for this item: “Hon. M.
A. Rabb has a peach tree on his
place which blossows in December,
has leaves out andis now full of
young peaches, while not another
tree on his piace has shown any
gign of blooming. The extreme cold
weather appears to have been eepec
ially suited to it.”
Tue colored people of \"lrginia'
own £0,500,000 in real estate and
§3,250,000 in personal property.
Theic real estate largely exceeds
their personal property. The ne-
Zro is accustomed to tilling the soil,
aad naturally acquires a small farm
as soon as possible. The white
planters often paid the negro in
land for his services, hence their
rapid accumulation of real estate.
Peter Joknson (colored), of Elk«
ton Tenn., owes his presence on
earth probably to his inborn anti
pathy to cold water. He died, to
all outward appearences, and was
about to be carried away for burial,
when one of the iwourners got a
towel and some cold water and be
gan to bathe his forehead. It wasa
“zero day,” aud no sooner had the
icy water trickled behind Peter’s
ears than he bounced up in his coffin
and demanded to know what in the
name Bf common sense that was done
for.
' BANK DIRECTORS. ¢
’ - The Directors of Banks have a
‘heavy responsibility. It is their
duty to see that the bank, with
which they are counected, is being
conducted honestly, and taat there
i 8 no covering of deficits, speculat
ing with bank funds, or {alse entries,
and that the cash is on hand. They
owe this to the depositors, whose
money they invite and solicit and
handle. Directors should direct. It
is a responsible position to be a bank
director, and frequent investigation
of booke, moneys &c.,should be nad,
It is no use to say the officials are
honest aud take their showing as
absolutely correct. You owe it to
the cashier to verity his statement
and say “Yes, sir, it is just as you
say.” Negligence and carelessness
on the part of directors have ruined
manuy a bank and brougat suffering
on depositors.
CLEVELAND’S CAB[I.QET.
Mr. Cleveland announced last
week that he had completed his
cabinet, which is as follows :
Walter Q. Gresham, of Illinois,
secretary of state. .
John G. Carlisle, of Kentucky,
secretary of the, treasury,
Daniel 8. Lamont, of New York,
secretary of war.
Hilary A. Herbert, ot Alabama,
secretary cf the navy.
Hoke Smith, ot Georgia, secretang
ofsthe interior.
J. Sterling Morton, of Nebraska,
secretary of agriculture.
Nilson 8. Bissel, of New York,
postmaster-general.
Richard W. Olney, of Massachu
setts, attorney-general.
It is said that an under current
has already set in to make Steve
Clay the next Governor of Georgia.
He would make a good one and we
gee no reason why he should not be
honored in this way. He is young
and brainy, an unadulterated demo
crat, and would fill the executive
chair of Georgia with credit to him
seif and honor to the State.—Dalton
Citizen.
Of course he would. He will be
the next Governor of Georgia.
A Louisiana man®says that the
rice crop of that state this year will
‘be tully one-half of the entire crop,
of the United State. *“The raising
of rice,” he says, has worked won
ders for the interest of our state. It‘
has practically opened up a new in
dustry in the agricultnral line, and
bundreds of farmers who thought
their lands valueless when the cot
ton gave out now find themselves in
a position that will soon place them ‘
in one year where coton could not
put them in five. Ic¢is really the
most lucrative ot all the new indus
tries in the South.”
A woman of Waco bought a fold~
ing bed. It was warranted to be of
a kindly disposition and so tract
able that #ny woman could manage
it. Thus thrown off her guard, she
got in its way, and the thing kicked,
inflicting, as she alleges, permnanent
injuries upon her. Now she has
brought suii against the former
owner of the bed for 85,000 damages,
and the judicial question of human
responsibility tor the conduct of
tolding beds comes up for the first
‘time in a Texas court. %
| ke et i
Judge William Lindsay, the new
Sevator from Kentucky, it is stated,
is a man full of rescurces. On one
occasion he had a bad case and was
abusing the opposite party fo the
suit roundly. Finally he said some
thing specially ofiensive, when the
party approached him and, whispers
ing in his ear, said: “I will give
you just five minutes to retract that
remark. 1t you don’t doitl will
kill you.” The last words were
hissed in his ear. “Well,” sgaid
Judge Lindsay, smiling, *“what do 1
want to wait five minutes tor? I
will take 1t back right now.”
WHILE it is remarked that the
next Secretary of Agriculture, Mr.
Morton, may not be able to swing a
scytbe or drive a hay cart with
Uncle Jerry Rusk, yet he unders
stands arboriculture, horticulture
and agriculture, and he raised 1,575
bushels of corn on a twenty-acre lot
on his Nebraska farm last year and
\ stumped the State for Cleveland,

! . FOUR YEARS OF HARRISON.
! In a very few days Gen. Harrison
will cease to be President. That he
,is an upright, clean-handed and
honorable man zone will deny. Bat
Le has not been a popular President,
ani his administration has not been
helpful to his party, or teneficial
to the country.
When he was inaugurated the re
publicans Nad a majority in the
House and in the Senate. There
wuas a surplus in the treasury of
more than &60,000,000, ;and the
revenues exceeded the expenses of
administering the govarnment
nearly $100,000,000 a year. Atter
four years of Harrison’s rule what is
the condition of affairs?
The House has passed to the con
trol of the democrats. So has the
Senate. The treasury surplus has
been spent and there is nething to
show for it. The expenses of ad
ministering the governmert have in
creased so enormously that che rev
enues are not sufficient to meet
them.
This is not a gratifying showing.
It is not to be wondered at, there
fore, that Gen. Harrison’s departare
from the white house will not be re-‘
’ gretted by his party or the country. ‘
. What are Ihe principal features of ‘
‘his administration ? A tariff that is
luniversally condemned and a ;\en-|
sion Lurden that will weigh heavily
ufln the people tor more than a
generation. The country will feel
lthe bad eftort ct these two things
when Gen. Harrison has been prac
tically forgotten. The farewells to
him as he takes his departure from
the national capital will contain no
shade of sorrow.—Savannah News.
MAKES ALL THE INK, |
ONE man makes ail the ink with
which the United States government
prints its paper raoney. His father
invented the ink, but he never told
anybody how he did jt until justl
before he died, when he let his son
into the secret, says the Ladies’
Home Journal. Had an untimely
accident gathered the inventor to
hia fathers betore he told kis son
about the ink the government print
er would have been ina bad way,
for this is the only kind of ink that
will print on the peculiar surface ot
the fiber of which government note
paper is made. The maker employs‘
only six men in the manufacture of
his ink, and none of them is in tbe!
secret, nor has auy one yet seen the
interesting act of mixing the ingre
dients of which the ink is composed.
The owner of the secret iocks him
selt up in his room two weeks in
each year, and it is there and then
that he mixes stuft enough to sup
ply the government with ink for the
ensuing twelve months. The pro
cess of locking himself up surrounds
him with an air ot romance some
‘thing like that of the man whom
Balzac made to search for the alka
‘hest, the only diflerence being that
the alkahest fellow shat himself up
for a life-time aud got nothing, be
sides alienating the affections of his
wife, while the other locks himself
up for two weeks and gets $50,000 a
year.
It is a grand grace to be able to
always make yourselt agreeable and
companionable. To be the right
person in the right place, and to say
Jast the right thing at the right
time, is an indication of great tact.
A word unwisely said, an insinuation
thoughtlessly made, a cut, a thrust,
a bit ot peevishress or selfish sar
casm, alas! how otter we would give
almost anything to unsay or undo.
To be agreeable and companionable
we must be kind, thoughtful, inter
ested in our acquaintances’ welfare
and success, sincere, cordial, and,
above all, cheertul. A church full
ot such people would grow and
flourish with the poorest ot preach
ers, and the poorest of choirs. When
people see you take a real interest
in them you have already half won
them to your side. Will you help
your pastor cultivate this spirit?
Tue North Carolina legislatare is
considerirg a retormatory for juven
ile convicts. There are in the peni
tentiary of the state 300 convicts
under 20 years of age, and 53 under
15 years of age. Tha® bare fact,
without elaboration, should be argu
ment sufficient to secure the passage
of the reformatory bill. And a bill
tor a like institution mignt profita.
bly be considered by the next legis
lature of this state.
HUNGER AND FEVER.
A St. Petersburg, Russia, dispatch
says: The destruction of the crops
last summer in Finlan has caused
a famine. Twenty thousand people
are dcpendent on <harity. Half a
willion are barely able to subsist.
The most of the draugh: horses have
been cunsumed for food. Typhus
killa hundreds of citizens daily.
Dead bodies of starvéd persons are
continually found by the road side
and are often Jeft there, the people
being too disheartened’ t> bury the
dead. Unless aid is sent to the
people very soon, thousands of them
will pine away for want of focd.
Many of the men are so emaciated
that they cannot do ordinary work.
The women are hulf starved now,
and household duties are negiected.
The suffering is intense. Men do
not hesitate to openly rob a neigh
bor who is found with provisions
about his premises. The fever is
becoming more malignant daily.
A somewhat ambiguousadvertise
ment in a resent issus of a daily
paper announces that *‘a second
hand girl’s side-saddle is for sale.”
