The custom of the Chinese gov

which the fair is held, led Presidenl

The relations of Samuel J. Tilden
to the administration, says a writ
er in the New York Tribune,are of
ten discussed among the politicians
here. One of his intimate acquain
tances said to me: “There’s a pop
ular beliel that if Mr. Tilden rec
ommended to office it would receive
instant approval from Mr. Cleve
land. However that may be, Mr.
Tilden is not the man to recommend
anybody to office. His counsel is
sought on the great questions of pol
icy, and he gives it Mr. Manning’s
recent visit to Greystone was not
to talk about offices, but about gold
and silver. Mr Tilden has had
much to do with shaping the finan
ci-tl policy of the administration
It was at his instance after the fa
mous conference with Mr. Cleve
land, following the Victoria hotel
gathering, that the President’s
friends sought from Congress a re
peal of the silver-coinage act. You
may be sure that Mr Manning has
some new movement of large im
portance on hand or he would not
have gone to Greystone
But I am forgetting about office
seekers. It is within my know!
edge that Mr. Tilden signed on
letter of recommendation for a gen
tlemau who was seeking office un
der a Republican President. The
gentleman had been in Mr. Tilden’s
employ, and urged that he could
not. - well make application for a
place without indorsement by all
his former employers. Months af
terward the President met Mr. Til
den and said: “Well, I gave you
friend the place he wanted.” Mr
Tilden was astonished, and asked
for explanation. When he found
that his signature had effected the
man’s appointment he was disgust
ed and said that was the last time
any one would receive it.
PeahHy Ustitate For 1885.
The Storm Period.
Within a fortnight the northwest
has suffered more from windstorm
than ever before. Iowa was swept
with a cyclone that did an enor
mous amount of damage, destroying
many buildings and several lives
Sunday night, the 14th mst. the
storm struck Sioux City shortly
after 10 o’clock, unroofing building
and demolishing large structures
of stone and brick. At Coleridge,
Neb., sixteen buildings were level
ed with the ground and several
persons were killed and injured
Wakefield and Ponca, in that state,
were also visited by the storm,
were several towns in Dakota. At
Eagle Grove, Iowa, a church and
several other buildings were de
stroyed; at Greene 110,000 worth of
damage was done; at Ogden
ehards were torn up; Ida Grove
hud seven buildings destroyed; at
Dan bury the Catholic church was
blown down; Mapleton suffered se
verely; at Lemurs the people lost
100,000 worth of property; Storm
Lake lost many barns and orchards.
Stillwater, Minn, lost 120,000, beside
$10,000 damages to streets; Granite
Falls suffered severely, and serious
losses are reported all over Sac., Ida
and Woodbury counties in Iowa.
It is impossible to give an approxi
mate statement of the- losses, but
they will probably aggregate mil
lions of doliars, besides many lives
The storm in Iowa seamed to bring
torrentsof rain to other localities
in central and southern Illinois and
some portions of Wisconsin. Jack
sonville, Ill., was visited with heavy
thundei-storms, and Mattoon, Pax
ton, Rockford, Danville, Hillsboro
Springfield, Decatur, and Shelby-
ville, with the adjacent country,
had some storms of rain and wind
that did great damage. It is im
possible to give bounds of the storm,
but it covered a larger area than
any that has visited the northwest.
The noticeable increase in the num
ber and severity of these cyclones
during the last five years is a sub
ject that is receiving much study
from meteorologists and statistic
ians. Nothing exists without an
adequate cause, but what the cause
of these great and frequent storms
is has so far baffled scientific men.
Theories are numerous, but accept
ed facts are few.
One teacher’s Institute will be
held this year in the city of Atlan
ta, commencing July 27th and con
tinuing four weeks. All the teach
ers ot the State of every grade are
invited, as are also school officers
and all other citizens interested
in educational matters. There
will be separate buildings and ac
commodations for the colored teach
ers, but the same instructors serv
ing the white teachers will teach
them also.
Special arrangements will be
made with the hotels and boarding
houses, and liberal rates will b<
given by the railroads. The State
School Commissioner will take
great pleasure in furnishing to all
who may address him for further
information a printed statement
giving full details.
It is intended that this Institute
shall be far in advance of anything
heretofore seen in Georgia, both in
the large attendance which is ex
pected, and in the number of in
structors and lectures on special
topics.
The State School Commissioner
will be in charge of the Institute
and will regularly give instruction
in the school laws of the State
Superintendent W. H. Baker of
Savannah, Superintendent B. M.
Zettler of Macon, Superintendent
W. F. Slaton of Atlanta, and Presi
dent J. Harris Chappell, of the Al
abama State Normal College, will
be instructors in what maybe term
ed the regular branches, viz: Spell
ing, Reading, Penmanship, Gram
mar, Geography and Arithmetic,
These gentlemen, by long expe
rience, as well as by natural qualifi
cations, are eminently fitted for the
work assigned them. There will
also be instruction given in the
Natural Sciences, in the highe
Mathematics, etc.
A distinguished corps of instruc
tors have been secured in special
subjects. Among these are Rev. Dr.
H. H. Tucker of Atlanta, Prof. H
A. Scornp of Emory College, Presi
dent J. H. Carlisle, LL. D., of Wof
ford College, S. C., Drs. Groff and
Phillips of Pennsylvania, specialists
of high repute, and Hon. J. P.
Wickersham, LL. D., of Lancaster,
Penn., a man of world-wide reputa
tion among educational men.
Our high schol teachers are earn
estly invited to attend. Teacher’s
Institutes, sooner or later, must be
come a permanent feature of our
educational system. By availing
them-elves ofthe advantages of
fered now to teacher-pupils they
will be better qualified for the work
to which many will themselves be
hereafter called as Institute In-
stsuctors. Gustavus J. Orr,

The Apache Indians have always
enjoyed the reputation of being the
most merciless, murderous, and in
human of all the many tribes of sav
ages for which the general govern
ment provides. The territory they
inhabit is, however, so remote from
points reached by the news-gather
ers that- the people, much as they
know of the character of these In
dians, are ignorant of their bloody
work. A gentleman is now in
Washington from that territory
having as his mission, to show the
government in detail what has and
still is the full meaning of these an
nual raids. In an interview with
the President he said: “I do not be
lieve I am overstating the number
when I say that in less than eight
years, dating fiom the raid a few
days ago, more than eight hundred
people have been murdered by the
Apaches within the radius of 150
miles in N.M.How many vi t’ms be
yond that circuit no one knows.”
His description ol the Apache mode
of butchering whole families and of
mutilating women and chil
dren simply surpasses belief. It is
only natnral that he should enter
a vigorous protest against the es
tablished policy of the government
jn inducing these marauders back
f.i their reservations with promises
pf immunity tor the crimes they
commit while ou these * annual
raids,
The Macon Telegraph has this to
say after Commencment: Now
that the last ribbon has fluttered
out of view, the last composition
page been turned down, and TLe
last echo of song and applause has
died away, the Telegraph wants to
stand up in court and move to do
away with bouquets in the future.
This is, we know, a difficult ques
tion to deal with. It is natural
that we should desire to lavish flow
ers upon the sweet girl graduates
who bear our names and blood,
but it seems that it cannot be dene
without heart-burnings and jeal
ousies, and the custom should end.
Who has not felt a flush of shame
upon seeing a young lady, after a
most creditable, sometimes bril
liant effort, resume her seat with
out a contributory blossom, while
next to her sat a home favorite lit
erally barricaded with floral offer
ings? This may seem a small
thing, and yet inflicts a wound
that isliard to heal. Until Macon
is generous enough to crown worth
and beauty with flowers, regardless
ot name aifd personality, no more
flowers should be allowed upon the
stage at Wesleya n.
Nothing has so become the great
est Englishman of the nineteenth
century as his refusal to accept an
Earldom at the hands of the British
Queen. Gladstone has officially
conferred titles of nobility upon
other men, hut has the manly pride
to decline a peerage for himself.
Editor Herald:—On Saturday,
the 13th inst., while a thunder cloud
was passing in the afternoon, Mr.
T. A. Sewell was struck by light
ning and knocked down. His
spring is about three hundred yards
from his house and for convenience
he has a telegraph wire to draw wa
ter, with a carriage and bucket at
tached, and had just drawn a buck
et 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,
thence into Mr. Sewell’s mouth,
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 water, else Mr. Sewell
would have been killed.

The sting was about four inches

day.
I see one of your correspondents
wants to know how that snake
swallowed all those swallows. Why,
the snake don’t swallow anything.
It just opens its mouth and keeps
crawling on until the chicken or
egg gets to the bottom of the snake.

Editor Herald:—Again has our
community been made sad by the
death of Milton B. Fall, who died at
his home in Fayette county last
Saturday evening. He died of that
wasting disease, consumption, after
some years of suffering. Milton
was one among the best men I have
ever known. He leaves a wife and
five little children. Those whom he
has loved and left were most tend
erly and pathetically commended
to the kind care and consideration
of his many friends and comrades
by Dr. Hornady, who preached his
funeral at the Baptist church on
Monday morning. To his bereaved
wife and children, and his aged
mother, and other members of the
family, our tenderest sympathies
are extended.

While over in Fayette county a
few days since I was pained to learn
of the death of Mr. Milton Fall. He
was a noble Christian, and in the
prime of his manhood and would
have soon developed himself a
leading citizen of his county if per
mitted to have lived a few years
longer. At one time he taught
school in this immediate communi
ty and boarded with the family of
the writer; hence » tender chord is
touched and the warmest sympathy
of your correspondent is tendered

bless them and guide them to the
rest enjoyed by husband and father.

he wanted to finish up a certain
field of cotton by dinner and then
go a fishing in the evening, he then
went to his room and lay down, his
older brother heard him make a

skill and tried the prescriptions of a
prescriptions of a
great many physicians, I was induced to
try your Dyspeptic Elixir. You sent me
a bottle about the middle of March last,
and I am happy to inform you that I
have not suffered from these periodical
attacks since. My indigestion is almost
if not entirely cured. 1 can eat any and
everything without material injury. I
have been a practicing physician for
thirty years, and have ever been oppos
ed to proprietary medicine. Yon kindly
furnished me with the formula for the
Elixir, and or. examination can testify
to the medical properties and therapeu
tical application, and I recommend all
suffering from indigestion and nervous
headache, or any diseases arising from
a torpid liver, to procure a bottle of your
Dyspeptic Elixir, for it is almost a spe
cific in tKis class of diseases. I recom
mend it to my patrons and prescribe it
in my practice. L. P. DOZIER, M. D.

to try it after having tried almost every

the slightest effect. 1 took only threr
small bottles of your medicine before I
was entirely well. I suffered several
years, and although it has been three

have had no return of it.
