Society marriages now-a-days are not
for love—that pare, innocent, devoted
love that mated our fathers and moth
ers. They are generally for money or
family iofluence. There is no Jacob
and Rachel about it, and so the hap
piness of that union is not by tho fire
side, but away from it. To the.wife
it is in parlies and balls aod shopping
and visiting. To the husband it is the
club or the counting-room or the cotton
exchange or something worse. The
society man will marry for money. H
does not care how many lovers she has
had, nor how many engagements she
nas broken, nor huw many lips have
-lobbercd on hor, nor how many arm
have embraced her.
I road yesterday of a divorce 6uit
>etwcen a couple in high life, and thi
irreund for separation was that the
wife would not return the rings and
souvetiiers that former lovers had given
her. Th retetrasto be no business
principles among our young men;
inclination to woik—to begiq at
bottom and work up, but rather get
something for nothing and get*it quick.
Lottery tickets, cotton futures, gaming
or marry rich is the idea. The million-
lires who have made their fortunes by
peculation have set them the example
and these methods arc approved and
indorsed by society and the church
If a man makes a hundred thousand
dollars by cotton futures, or cornering
the meat or the bread of the country,
it is all right, provided he gives a
thousand or so to the church. I know
ju?t such a man who ncv«r earned an
bomst dollar in his life, made presi
dent of the M. C. A. No millionaire
ever earned his money. He may have
inherited it or it may have oome by
e accident of fortune, but he never
earned i'. It can’t be done* It is
imp »s-ible. No one mao can earn a
million dollars. Thete great fortunes
have been made by force or fraud, and
made at the c^penso of the people.

An Eagle Steals a Roy.
Capt. M'tik Cole of the steamboat
Sint inti vouches for the followirg re
markable event:
On Wednesday last, while en route
to Oolconda after rock with his boat,
and while immediately abreast of New
Liberty, mid river, he crippled with a
shotgun a huge black eagle, which was
soaring slowly toward the Kentucky
shore. The bird fell about 10.Q yards
cn shore biliw Hamlettsburg, and a r -
ter considcrtble trouble was secured
and taken aboard the boat. Its wings
measured 8 feet 2 inches from tip to
tip, pronounced by the deniams of the
locality to be thi largest ever known
that section. Tho bird was
»to OofcQuda, and as it was sup
posed to bo badly crippled and unable
to fly, was loaxted in the court bouse
yard, which was surrounded by a high
wire fence.
Yesterday a negro boy about 9 years
old ventured within the encloiure and
in some manner excited the ire of his
igleship, who instantly developed suf
ficient strength and activity to pounce
upon the child, and, fixing iti talons
into its shoulders, began slowly ts-
endiog, flipping its broad wings vi
olently in the meantime. The boy
:crc< med loudly in bis terror and paio,
assistance not arriving until he was
luspended five feet from the ground.
Tho feathered monster dropped his
cargo and quietly lighted in a corner of
the yard, apparently not the least ex
cited over his failure to procure a wit
ter supply of food. The shoulders of
the boy wa$ oonaideyably scratched,
but not seriously.

A Big Game of Slaughter-
A Summerville, West Virginia, dis
patch saye: “Henry Marry, m farmer
living in the monolaics ot Pocahontas
county, has been annoyed and dam
aged by the squirrels, chipmunks, and
other fonr-legged pests, which nightly
swarmed from the woods and ate his
corn. They literally destroyed every
thing before them until he accidently
struck upon a plan by which he has
destroyed almost all of the pests. He
one day noticed a chicken which had
stepped into a little pool of coal tar,
The fowl wandered about for a few
minutes, until its 4 feet became so covered
with the leaves and sticks upon which
it stepped that it could go no further,
and fell helpless to the ground. Mar-
ray, struck with the idcaa suggested by
the plight of the fowl, immediately set
to work and filled a large kettle with
coal tar, aod other glutinous substances,
which he heated.
The conglomeration he spread thickly
upon the top rails of tho feces which
stretched around his corn fields and
to the woods. Before daybreak next
morning, Murray, accompanied by
boys and half a dozm dog?, went into
the Cora field, and raising a yell, start
ed the affrighted animals by the dtzen
from their work of destruction. In an
iosutt, a long iiue of gray, brown, and
stripei animals were jumping
scurrying along the top of the fecc* to
ward the woods. Before they reached
the woods unny of them had to cov
ered their feet and bides with the g
my stuff that they either stuck fast
fell to the ground, where they were
quickly dispatched. In the open
woods at tho end of the fence the
B^-ene was an animated one of rolling,
tumbling squirrels, coons, and oppos-
suoiB, with feet, tides, and back covered
with the adheiring leaves, sticks, etc.,
wi\h which the ground wts covered.
Sixty-3even gray squirrels, thirty-four
chipmunks, three opossums, and seven
unlucky coons fell victims of Murray’s
tar-heel” mixture.
A few others -.uccoeded fq getting
into the trees, but they could not get
out of sight of the hunters, their feet
either sticking to the branches or
failing to holl at all on account of the
bunches of leaves adheariog to them.
very 6hort time Murray literally
depopulated the side of the (fountain of
the pests. It was but a short time be
fore the story got out, and now that en-
county is using Murray's receipt
for the destruction of the pests which
destroyed thou aids of dollars worth
of corn and other cereal* tv.ry year.—

Cleveland's Luck.
Washington, Feb. 4.—The official
announcement from the White House
puts a stop to all speculation about Mr.
Cleveland’s immediate future. He
not going to be a simple, isolated farm
er; he will not live in Washington, in
the shadow of his great doings and ca
reer; he will not idle about in Europe.
He is going to work, and he will
work hard.
Anything short of that would en
danger his life. He must labor or go
to pieces.
Lawyers regard him S3 fortunate in
taking connection with the firm of
Bangs, Ste’son, Tracy & McVeigh, of
New York city. It is a very prosper
ous association of eminent legal men.
There is some idea that Mr.-Cleveland 1
relations with this concern will not a!
ter the name of the firm, and that his
name will not be joined to that of the
other partners.
He will have his private rooms, with
his name on the ground-glass door, and
be regarded as tbe leading counsellor
of the establishment.
He will not go into court and become
advocate.
The people will no doubt approve of
this step that the retiring President has
taken, and will be glad to know that
be does not purpose to drag his name
among'the skin corporations of Wall
street, to be auctioned to the highest
bidder among them for purposes of de-
coyiog and deceiving investors. In the
summer the ex-president will fish more
than ever, since his tima will then be
his own.
Friends of Mrs. Cleveland are
pleased to know that she will be so
situated as to continue to enjoy and
adorn social affairs. She will no doubt
become at onoe an eagerly-welccmed
recruit in the ohoice drawing-rooms of
the metropolis.
The friendship already established
between her and seme of the finest peo
ple in New York will not be interrupt-
Conspicuous among these are the
Whitneys and their “set,” and the
Gilders and their refined coterie. The
Clevelands will not open a house in
the city until next autumn.

From Poetry to Prose*
“George, dear,” she said a tight or
two before tho wedding, “do you think
it possible that our love aod our mar
ried life can become the commonplace,
coldly practical lovo and life of the
married peoplo we see around us? Oh
George, my heart would break if I
thought 60.”
“It will not be so,” said George, pas
sionately. “We love each other too
tenderly, too fondly, for that. Our
love is not of tho ordinary kind, my
darling, and our lives will not be so.
Ah, no, no, my angel; that can never
be.”
And the other day she said:
“Say, George, how wonld jou like
baked beans for dinner, with pumpkin
pie desert? You would? All right,
then, baked beans goes. And don’t
you forget that bottle of Mellin’s food
for the baby, or I’ll tend you back
after it, and mind that you don’t keep
dinner waiting.”
And with a falling off of tho passion
of ten years ago, he says:
“All right, Lou; and I wish you’d
w a button on the back part ot
those striped trousers of mine; you’ll
find them hanging over 1 chair in
our room Don’t have the beans as
dry as the last were, and you watch

It didn’t, though, and the rea

were heavy, bat I secured a little

In the Pine Grovo mines, Esmer

remarkable faculty of finding his way,
not only through the intricacies of
the mine, but about the town. He
goes to any part of the mine for
tools and never goes astray, and on
dark nights he guides the other
miners from the town to the house
where most of them lodge. They
can't easily find the way without him,
for the trail is narrow and crooked,
»nd on e=ch side are many prospect
holes and old cellars.

GlTetheHexro,a Chance.
By all means, give the negro a
chance. No human agency can ele
vate, in a day, to’the dignity of man
hood, a race that has been enslaved
for centuries. Time and opportuni
ty are conditions essential to the ele
vation of the negro. It would re
quire a supernatural agency to have
developed and solved the problem in
so short a time. Twenty-four years
ago the negro was still a slave in all
of the Southern states. We agree
with Dr. Curry that education is the
proper solution of the negro ques
tion in the South. In an address
last week, on common school educa<
tion, before the Alabama Legisla
te! e, in which he urged the needs of
an increased appropriation to extend
2nd maintain the system, he said:
When you cross the Mason and
Dixon line coming South you enter
Africa, for out of the seven millions
of negroes in the United States six
and a half million of them live in the
Southern states. What the white
people of the South have done tor
the negroes since the war is an im
perishable monument ot the gener
ous patriotism and nob'e daring ot
the Saxon race. At the close of the
we found the race of ignorant
and inferior people, brought to this
country not by our own volition, not
at our saying, suddenly made free,
citizenized and made voters at three
separate and distinct steps of ad
vancement. Then came the era of
reconstruction, which made up the
darkest chapter in human history,
when a cowardly and persistent ef
fort was made by unprincipled poli
ticians to elevate the negro to the
degradation of the white men of the
South. Yet, after all that, when the
white people threw off the yoke of
oppression, they came forward bold
ly and generously and admitted the
negro to equal political ground. I
do not hesitate to say, soberly and
calmly, that the negro problem is the
most difficult, the most overwhelming
problem that Christianity and civili
zation have evir encountered. But
when the picture has been printed in
the truest anc^jjarkest color, I am
ready to demonstrate that ignorance
will not relieve the situation. Igno
rance will only tend to increase and
tensify the difficulties that gather
around the negro problem in the
South, and obstruct the pathway of
the future. It is the state’s duty to
educate the children, white and
black.
All things considered, the negro
has done well since emancipation. A
wild man in Africa, a slave during
the colonies, a slave during the first
three-quarters of a century of the re
public, and a free man only for
twenty-five years, what more could be
expected of him than he has accomp
lished since tik emancipation?
Dr. Curry is light. “Ignorance
will only tend to increase and inten
sify the difficulties that gather around
the negro problem in the South, and
obstruct the pathway of the future.”
There is no gainsaying the proposi
tion that “it is the state’s duty to ed
ucate the children, white and black.”
As to the fear of negro domina
tion, from superior, mental and me
chanical attainments, as a result of
adequate provision by the state for
educational purposes, the white man
should have none. If m the process of
development that is evolved by edu
cation, the brother in black should
come to the front as the superior of his
white-faced brother, it will be simply
the survival of the fittest.”
As to the fear of amalgamation,
bringing about social equality, we
apprehend no such danger to our
civilization. Certainly there, is no
danger of aggression in this direct
ion from the negro.
As to miscegenation the negro is
the victim. It docs not become us
to throw stones at the negro and
blame him for a condition for which
he is r.ot equally responsible. We
of the South should not condemn
the negro for his blunted preceptioxs
and benighted moral condition. If
the white man will practice virtue,
there is no fear of miscegenation.
With eight millions of blacks
against fifty odd million of whites,
with no negro immigration, and with
Europe sending nearly half million a
year to our shores, there is no fear
oi negro domination in any part of
the country.
Interest, gratitude, affection, hu
manity, civilization demand that the
negro he permitted to make the best
of his opportunities as a citizen. It
is the duty of the white people oi the
South to do all in their power to ad
vance the negro, matenallj, and to
elevate him morally and
ally. In other words, let ns give the
negro an equal chance in the nee oi
j* 43 tore is in the nee
We hare no iear for the
future.—Augusta ChrooirV.

A Memorial to MacDoaell.
At the last session of the South
Georgia Conference of the Methodist
Episcopal church, held at Eastman,
$2,000 were subscribed to be applied
to a fund toward building a church
in Durango, Mexico, under the direc
tion of the late Rev. Robert W. Mac-
Donell. The church has now decided
to erect the edifice as a memorial of
the late missionary.
Rev. J. R. McGJcsky, pastor of
Trinity church of ttyis city, and treas
urer of the memorial fund, said yes
terday that the church will probably
cost between $5,000 and $6,000. It
will be a very handsome edifice, and
will be dedicated to the memory of
the missionary, under whose super
vision it was 10 have been erected.
The subscription was not raised by
each church in the conference, but
from those present during the session.
The fund was subscribed before the
death of Mr. MacDonel), and since
his death it is not unlikely that an
effort willl be made to increase the
fund for the erection of the church
which he labored so zealously to
establish.
There will be a woman’s missionary
meeting at Trinity church to-night
for the purpose of taking steps to
raise a fund for a school, which was
also established in Mexico by Mr.
MacDoneU. Mrs. R. D. Walker,
president of the society, said that at
the last annual session of the society
at Perry the members pledged them
selves to raise $300 for the school.
This action was taken, of course,be fore
the death of Mr. MacDoneU. but the
president said that their earnest
endeavor to raise the fudd acd aid
the school will not abate, since they
are cognizant that it was a work to
which the late missionary was conse

“Concerning of Borne Pigs."
Henry Porter, colored, not being
able, as yet, to give a three hundred
dollar bond, is studying the shifting
sunshine through the strong iron bars
in the jail. Porter lives on Mr. Mc
Cartney’s place, adjoining Mr. A. F.
Prevatt’s place. Mr. Julc Prcvatt, who
is running the place is a good farm-
; he makes his own meat. Among
his stock arc several sows and pigs
Porter concluded that he would like
to have somcTrcsh meat,and so he de
coyed two of Mr. Prevatt’s pigs into
his hen house. >^r. Julc Prevatt saw
jhem thert and came to town for a
warrant. By the lime the sheriff got
there the pigs had been moved. The
wife of Porter who had been arrested
showed the sheriff where the pigs
were. They were concealed under
a tub.
Porter was tried before Squire
Mardre this morning and bound
over to the Superior Court, as the
crime is a penitentiary one.
