We have read the leading editorial iu the Atlanta Herald of yesterday, ihc 2<ltli, entitled “A Slight Chastisement,” personal to the editor of the Enterprise. It fur nishes food for reflection on n peculiar phase of w lmt is termed “modern journal ism," as illustrated by some controlling the columns of a newspaper Einperlcnl jour nalism is easily detected. L'uliae charity, it vuunteth itself, is unseemly, is pulled up. The m tide of the Herald is a forcible il lustration iu point. It is not onr purpose however, further to notice it, in the ab sence of the editor of the Enterprise This much we could hardly refrain. But we have a few words more on llie general subject. Too many of the newspujier press of this country lisvo a habit, as we have heretofore hu<l occasion to observe, in a somewhat lengthy relationship with il, of indulging in personalties that must he highly edifying to the lovers of lliut style of writing. The great rmn -cm, however, are not pleased with il, and it is disgust ing to the refined reader We have nev er, In all our experience n m editor, been aide to admire it, ami have never Indulged In it, whatever the provocation to do so may have been Why amicable relations and courtesy of speech should not charac terize the intercourse of editors us well us others, we have never been able to find a satisfactory reason. There n courtesy Iu the Intercourse between politicians, lawyers, doctors and ollrct e though con stantly diduring as widely as edih rs. Nearly Hie entire newspaper press of this country is tending to personality. Tin- “lie is passed," and tlieie the matter rests -no serious const rpteni is resulting. We have always thought that this habit of editors lias a hail effeet upon the young, who are an largely educated hy the news paper Il teaches llirm the use of terms that had their origin in human depravity, and are only to lie employed iu Hie heat, of passion oi Hie premeditated onslaught of defamation But they are so common In the newspaper Hist their Irativit to the lips of susceptible childhood and youth, is easy. The truth is, if they do not lisp in terms of vituperation they ate neatly the first they learn. Of course It is usolevi to urge a reforma tion of this habit. It - almost universality insures its perpetuity , and while the col umn glows and hums witli the hot breath of passion, all else, (hough dictated with Addisonian elegance and courtesy, will seem tame and proflllc Votir English newspaper rarely resorts to personal ad jectives. Junius, the most terrible of nil writers, cut Ids adversary to Hie heart in the language of courtesy. His most ic tistless passages eon tain not one word ob jectionable to Hie most refined taste, and yet tlio victim was not the less put to tortute Refuting a false statement, lie did not tuy •' You lie," hut pro ceil it. By the constant use of tlie extreme terms of the language in denunciation or praise, one soon ceases to have terms to apply to that which is really worthy of denunciation or commendation. -♦ *■ Tin: niiirmu i.ant 3h;ht. It is matter for general congratulation Unit action of Iho Central Democratic ('lull last night resulted in the utmost har mony. as will be seen by the published proceedings. This was what we hoped ami advised. The long wished for time has liuppily in rived In our midst when the lion and the lamb can lie down together and the little eliild can lead them. Knees and colors, simply as such, have no politi cal antagonisms in this election. Tliisouglil to l>o universal throughout this broad land, and we slr.ferely believe would be if left to the peoplu most immediately in teiestcd freely to uet for themselves. We would never fear tint m t ions different es on account of race, color, or previous eon dltion but for outside and selllsh interests whose elevation and iiilluence wholly de pend upon fanning discord where none really exists The Southern white man and the Southern black man thoroughly understand each other, and may continue to live peaceably in Ibe future as in the past, notwithstanding tlieir changed rela tionship. The past year in Macon, so signally de monstrating results creditable to all cou corned iu connection with our municipal Hlluirs, ought to furnish a pattern for wide spread imitation. "Equal and exact justice to all molt." is our motto. Whatever be the issues that may divide men into parties iu the future, that of color simply, has become obsolete. The black man, sur prised as bo Inis lrecit into full lledged, citir.eusblp, will gradually so educate him self that he cau cast an intelligent suf frage upon issues that arc alike common to all classes aud conditions, in local as well as State and National allaire. Mr. Hull is emphatically tin: propyls'cyndipitk, and will have no opposition to his re elec tion. •* * A dlvuki: was entered iu the Chancery Court at Nashville confirming the sale of the Nashville and Northwestern HoaJ, in eluding the right to construct a hraucli road from Huntington to Jackson, to the Nashville aud Chatanooeß Hallro.nl Com puny, for $2,400,000 in State bonds. ■ -**--■ The polae ot Jackson.

REMEDY FOR THE HORSE DIS EASE. The following is the treatment employ ed by the Express Company for the equine epidemic, now so wide spread. It is giv en under the authority of il. J. O’Brien. Esq , the General Superintendent, and has proved very satisfactory in its results : When the symptoms are first noticed, commence feeding warm mashes of bran and cut hay. Give water after the feed— not before. Keep the borse well and warmly blanketed. Do not use the horse unless compelled to do so, and then he must not be driven faster than a walk. Put on a blanket whenever lie is standing still. If the horse refuses to eat the mush, then give him oat-meal gruel; give n quart or two at a time ; pour it down or give it from a bottle. The horse will have a sore throat. Ex amine, and when seen, apply the following mixture outwardly, rubbing thoroughly from the jaws to the chest twice a day Take and mix four (4) ounces Arnica, (4) ounces Chloroform, four (4) ouuces Am monia, and four (4) ounces Biveet Oil, in addition to the out-meal remedy. You will buy a piece of quarter inch rubber tube or pipe, eighteen inches long ; put iu one end about a tablcspoonful of finely pulverized uluui, insert the tube in the mouth to and beyond the roots of the ton gue, and then blow the powder in the throat. Use this when the throat becomes sore or much irritated. L'se tills with dis cretion. liuy an eight ounce rubber ball sy ringe, and inject up each nostrei the fol lowing mixture four times in the tweuty fonr hours, and continue until you are well satisfied that the liquid has gone well up the nostrels : Mixture—One pound of Chloride of Potash to three gallons of soft water mix thoroughly. Should Hie horse be taken with chills, it is a sure evidence of lung fever, and immediate care is required. You will then give thirty (30) drops of the follow ing mixture every hour until the horse is relieved One ounce of Aconite and three ounces of water ; mix and use. The horse must he kept from the rain and cold winds. The stall must be kept free of wet or moisture, using saw dust to soak it up. aud take it off immediately. Feed light food aud give plenty of fresh uir , a little water often—not cold. Keep the stable clean—use a little Chloride of Lime about the floor. Watch your horses day acd night. Good care and warm covering will do as much as uiediciue.
