For sale hv Druggists and Sto r ekeepers throughout the United "States, Canadas and South America. For Sale by J. W. AI WATER, ThomuirtOT, Ga. novl!-Iy A Disgusted Drummer. It is a well km»wu in*3t that tlie revenue has an army of Assessors, o<illeet<»rt», A*' eistants, C'lerks, Special Agents, etc., in each and strict, vrho.-e (iutr it i s to see that Unc e Sum is not cheated out of his “just deserts,” and that the combined salaries of these offices is about tuuul to the amount of revenue they co lect. A frieud relates the followin'; “little story,” for the truthfulness ot which we will not vouch : I tint a “drummer.” In other wonis. I’m a traveling clerk for the “Great North American Tool and Agricultural Implement Manufacturing Company,” and, as a mut ter of course, in my various peregrinations over the country, I brve Suine strange ad ventures One evening I drove into the little village of Smithville. Do p- <i stopped be fore a mce looking cottage, with tlie owner of w inch I thought I might be ab e to “strike a trade.” as the surroundings mdi caied that a skil!ed*tind enterprising hand had charge of them 1 shouted “hallo,” and was answered by tlie propietor in person. I >tated mv busi ness in as glowing terms as possible, and wound up hv asking him if lie wanted any thing: tn my line. “Well. n<>, he replied : “you see I’m As sessor of Revenue for this district, and my duties are such that I have no time lor anything else ” “Perhaps your neighbor over tfmre,” said I, pointing across the way, “would buy a tew articles?” “lie? ID’s Assistant Assessor of Intern al Revenue for this district, and it requires all his time to attend to his duties. I guess he wouldn’t buy anything.” “W ho lives in the next house down there?” I inquired, hopefully. “Mr. Smith, Gollectnr of iuternal Reve nue for this district, lie has no time fur farming, and. of c *urse would buy nothing iti that line.” “Maybe the owner of that fioe mansion on the hill yonder,” replied 1 solemnly, “would take t) lew agricultural implements, as everything around him indicates—” “Oh, no, stiid he, interrupting me, “he’s Assistant OMlecGir of Internal Revenue fur this district, and if he had all the farming implements in the world he wouldn’t have time to use ’em.” “Dues anybody else live in this town ?” I asked, desparingly, for no other houses were visible. “Yes-.” was the reply, “Mr. Jones lives just beyond the hill yonder: hut he is In sp ctor of Internal Revenue for this district; and is never at h >me.” “Thunder find lightning !” said I warm ly, “d'es the Revenue Department live here? Is there a blacksmith in tlie place? It there is, maybe he w..uld like some Df our tools.” “Mr. Simmons was our blacksmith, hut he received tlie appointment of A-sistant Inspector ot internal Revenue for this dis trict last week, and in coris> quence of which he has closed his shop for the present.” “Is there a man in this vill ge who is not, connected writ!) the internal Revenue of this district ?” I a-ked this question as sarcastically as possible, and with a faint—very faint glimmering us hope. ‘Well, yes, there is the postmaster, but he is expected to receive a commission as Inspector of Brandies and Whisk vs f t this district. I think it is useless to go to him.” “Where is the hotel ?” I asked, disgusted, e have none It hasbeen changed to a bonded warehouse for this district.” “Do yuu collect enough revenue in this district to pay yourselves?' I asked, for information this time. “No, sir, w e do net; but other districts collect more than enough. 'Their surplus is appropriated to till uur deficiency. Thus things are equal zed. Don’t you see the philosophy of it ? What would the govern ment be without a revenue ? Good evening, sir ” He left, and so did I. Up to this time I have failed to see the “philosophy of it.” Small Pox. At this time when small pox is prevailing to a considerable extent in many p..rti ms of the country, it is important to understand the most reliable preventive as well as curative measures in its management. Small p f x is pr ipagated hv specific c rifa gion or miasm, and by direct innoculation of the virus or lymph which accumulates in th-* pustules. 'Die miasma of small pox is multiplied by heat, moisture and foul air. Thus, a small quantity of the malaria in a hot damp, and filthy t ouse. will increase so rapidly that the entire build ng will soon become a magazine of poison. Tin? poison can not develop itself in a pure and drv atmosphere, hence, the first and most im portant preventive means of this Uaihsome disease is to remove all filth and moisture from dwellings. The second preventive measure consists in keeping the functions of the lady active, This can be accom plished by avoiding excesses, by baths, a regular diet, and strict attention to cleanli ness in every respect. Third by vaccina tion v hen properly performed. The best lympth to be used f-.r vaccinating is that which 13 prepared in Germany and import ed in quids. ]r should be introduced bv slightly tcarafyirtg the arm r.r calt ol the Dg, (not sufficiently to draw blood) and ap plying the lymph, allowing it to remain until it is entirely dry. If the first appii cati. n does noT take effect it should be repeated every two or three davs. In order to have vaccination certainly protective against small p' x it must pr-duce the fol lowing constitutional symptoms : light rain in the head; sidling oi the muscles ; chilly sensations, and some fever, together with the development of a we 1 defined pustule, which will appear fir.-t, as a ema f blister, then fill with gr-iyish lymph, will drv and become of a mahogany color, and, upon scaling < ff', will leave a pit It flammation may appear arou -d the pustule, but as that occurs frequently as the result of the geari. fvirig, it is not a positive indication that the vaccine disease has been perfectly develop ei. If he vaccination has been perfect the system is as much protected as it can be, abu observations prove that it is n preven tive of small p x in ninety-three cases out of one hundf'd. nod in the remainder it m -d'fies it. The treatment of small pox sh. uld always he entrusted to a skillful physician, and under judicious manage ment, it is by lj means a fatal malady. State- ltuuu RURAI. districts. Finders and parties are all the range in Valdosta. Thomas Fox was robbed while attending the Superior Court. The Times had a visit from a wren and wishes to know tlie omen. Mr. W. 11. Sims, of LuGrange, is dead. The residence of Col. W. P. Banks, of La- Grange, was destroyed by sue. Calhoun Times has been feeding on an eight pound turnip. The Methodist Church at C»vp Spring was damaged to the amount of S2OO by tire, last week. The New nan Herald thus speaks : j A citizen of this city < wns a wild lot of land in Ilarrals >n county. Oue day this week he received a letter paving the way to its purchase by the writer of the afore said letter. In refening to the value of the land, the Harrulson man wrote; “the timber is worth more than the land, and the timber is Dot worth anything in this c ointry ” A question of morals arises. Can the owner of this land sell and receive pay for it, because of its want of value? •Question in mathematics : If the lot is worth anything, how much is it worth? Will some divine solve the former, and a school master the latter. The E itonton Press and Messenger says ; On Tuesday night last, about thirty-two Swedes arrived at this place. Seventeen of this number are taken by citizens of our own county, and the balance by persons in ; .Jasper county. Mr. Foss, the ageut, | brought one hundred and thirty to Augusta, ! all for Georgia. Some stopped at Augusta and others went to Atlanta. Two or three of the number who left their homes with ! intention of coming to Georgia, were per suaded to desert while over in Charleston, S. C.

The Sun says : Probable Attempt at Assassination.— Yesterday, immediately after the Senate adjourned, four buck negroes approached the door of the Senate Chamber and in quired for Capt. Whit. Anderson, the door keeper. Capt Anderson soon appeared and askei their business. They, in a very insulting manner#sud they had come to demand an explanation and satisfaction for his conduct at the polls of the Third Ward on the day of the election. The Captain, to avoid an altercation with them, said he had no explanation to make, and quietly admonished them to leave. At this moment one of the party stepped back, an 1 placing himself in a threatening and defiant atti tude, cursed Capt. Anderson, and said if he would stop and >vrn stairs he would very soon have satisfaction. The Captain stepped back into the Chamber to get something to defend himself. When he returned he could just discern the tops of their heads retreating down the Capitol steps “double quick. ” He followed them down stairs, Imt when he reached the door they were j far down the street, running for Ijfe. The Constitution is informed that the Grand Jury of Fulton county have returned i a true bill against Foster Blodgett, fur | larceny after trust. Ex-G ivernor Joseph E.
