THE KURAL SUN".
We have received this week two .
copies of the Hural Sun. It is a paper [
replete with useful and new informa- ,
tion—information would boa fortune .
to every farmer if be would improve
upon its suggestions. We arc glad to ,
see that Mrs. L. Virginia French is i
upon the editorial staff. Her literary
reputation is second to no lady in the
South, and we congratulate the read
ers of the Sun upon their certainty of (
having, with every issue, something
worthy of perusal. The Sun also con- [
tains several ’pieces from the pen of 1
that great and lovely woman Lide
Merriweather. Ah, we are proud of j
the fair sox, when we find such rep
resentatives of it, as the world beholds
in these accomplished and gifted sis
ters.
Our Home Boys
will not. bring back the prizes for which
they so honorably and admirably con
tested at Atlanta, but they and their :
parents have just cause to be proud of :
the position they occupied on this very
important occasion, they being the
“only two” out of nine who wrote and
delivered their own speeches, and that
in a manner tlmt would have done
Credit to the most matured judgment I
and iwiglitest intelttfct. 4
If their lives are spared, the city
and State may justly expect great ,
things from these youthful orators.

June, 1873, a temporary organization !

Who is a Gentleman.
A gentleman is not merely a person
acquaint* d with certain forms and eti
quette of life, easy ami self-possessed
in society, able to speak and act and
more in the world without awkward
ness, and free from habits which nie
xulgar and in bad task. A gentleman
is something beyond this; that whic h
lies at the root of all his pleasing is
the same spirit which lies at the root
of every moral virtue. It isthe thought
nil desire of doing in every instance
to others as he would that others
should do unto him He is constantly
thinking, not indeed how he may give
pleasure to others for the mere sense
us pleasing, but how he can show re
spt t* > others how he mar avoid
nurtii their feelings. Whc nheis in
'■ seruym mslv ase rtai’is the
pos. ;, a and r lations of every one
wir.i wnom lie comes in contact, that
he may g lVe to each his due honor.
his proper position. He studies how
he may avoid touching in conversation
upon my subject which may call up a
disagreeable or offensive association.
A gentleman never alludes to, never
even appears conscious of any per
son’s defect, bodily deformity, of tal
ent, of rank, or of place. Ho never
assumes any superiority to himself—
never ridicules, never sneers, never
bos ts, never makes a display of his
own power, or rank or advantages—
such as is implied in ridicule or sar
casm or abuse—he never indulges in
habits tricks, or inclinations which'
may be offensive to others.

THE COLD WATER TEMPLARS
THEY HAVE A BIG TIME AT CONCORDIA HALL.
Concordia Hall was packed last
night to its utmost seating, and even
standing capacity, by the friends of
our Cold Water drinkers, to witness
their exhibition.
The exercises were opened by a con
test for the prize offered to the young
ladies for the best composition. Three
compositions upon the subject of Tern
perance were read, one by Miss Young
one by Miss Emma Paris, ami one by
Miss Missouri Crew. All of these did
most excellently, and, in our humble
opinion, set forth the merits of the j
cause which they advocated as elo
quently and strongly as wc have ever
heard. It will certainly never need ■
any prettier supporters.
For a the next hour and a haif the
audience were most agreeably enter
tained by a number of dialogues, cha- I
rades and plays, all leaning upon the ■
Temperance cause and performed by ,
the young people of Rhoda and Jleno
na Temples.
As no programme had been pro- '
vided, we are unable to compliment
our young friends as they deserve, but i
all of them did well, and many of them
evinced the clearest conception of their
parts. These exercises wore diversi
fied by music under the guidance of
Mr. Carl Harmsen.
Col. Pike Hill, in behalf of the com- [
mittee to award the prize, made a j
brief address,'" complimenting the |
young ladies, and stating that in view 1
of the excellence of the three composi
tions the Temple had determined to
give each of them a prize. Those pri
zes will be a complete regalia for es'- 1 .
The young people then cleared the
hall of chairs and benches, and went
to work enjoying themselves in good
old-fashioned style, as they also did a
nice supper prepared for them by the
1 committee.
To Mr. and Mrs. Thrower, the
thanks of all are due for their man
agement and direction of the enter
' incut.— Atlanta Constitution.

The startling drawback on nearly all me
dicinal agents has ever been that in their
process of purgation and purification they
have also debilitated the system. To obvi
ate this difficulty physicians have long
sought for an agent that would
PURGE, RUBIFY & STRENGTHEN
AT ONE AJTD TtkE SAXE TIME.
Their research has at last been rewarded
by a discovery ”hich fully realizes the
loudest Jdcsiresof the medical faculty, an]
which is justly regarded as the most im
portant triumph that Pharmacy has ever
achieved. This important desideratum is
DR. TUTT’S VEGETABLE LIVER PILL.
Which purify the blood and remove all
corrupt humors and unhealthy accumula
tions from the body, and yet pro<|uces no
weakness or lassitude whatever, but on the
contrary tones the stomach, and invigorates
the body during their progress of the oper
ation. They unite the heretofore irrecon
cilable qualities of a Strengthening Pur
gative and a Purifying Tonic.
Dr- Tutt's Pills arc the most active
and searching medicine in existence. They
at once attack the very root of diseases,
and their action is so prompt that in an
hour or two after they are taken the pa
tient i< aware of their good effects. They
may be taken at any time without restraint
of diet or occupation ; they produce neither
nausea, griping or debility, and as a
ly medicine they have no rival.
Price 25c a box. Sold by all druggists.

It is the most powerful cleanser,strength
ener and remover of glandular obstruction
ever known to Materia Madica.
It is specially adapted to constitutions
worn down and de Lili toted by the warm
weather spring and summer, the blood
is not in active circulation, consequently
gatherings impurities from sluggishness
and imperfect action of the secretive organs
and is manifested by tumors, eruptions,
blotches, boils, pustules, scorfula &c-
When weary and Huguid from ouerwork
and dulness, drowsiness and inertia take
the place of energy and vigor, the system
needs a Tonic to build it up and help the
vital forces to regain their recuperative
power.
In the heat of Summer frequently the
Liver and Spleen do not properly perform
their function: the I. terrine and Uinary
organs are inactive, producing weakness
of the stomach and intestines and a predis
position to bilious derangement.
