The Yellow Question.
The excitement in California on tho
question of Chinese immigration has
risen to the point of de-per.ition, and
will culminate in bloodshed unless paci
fied by some action of Congress restrain
ing the importation of that people. The
easels well etatod.in an article in the
World of the 4th instant, os follows:
The Chinese question, as stated by the
journals of tho western slope, may be
summarized to this effect: The emio,
grants of the Mongolian race do not
come into the country as free men and
women. The males are for the most
part bound over to the Sir Companies
under contracts which render th.-m in
effect slaves—not crossing to oar shores
moved by the spirit of individual enter
prise or adventure, as emigrants, but im
ported as coolies. The females are
brought in under the pause contract sys
tem, solely for purposes of prostitution.
Unlike Europeans, the Chinese do not
come to make their home here or become
citizens of tha country. Thoee of them
that die here leave it, as their dying re
quest, that their bodies shall be sent
back to China, and those that are fortu
nate enough to become wealthy, in eood
time return to spend there what they
have gathered here.
Coming from a country teeming with
population—where the struggle for exis
tence is so desperate that children are
sometimes murdered to get rid of the
cost of bringing them up—the Chinese,
schooled to exist with few wants and no
luxuries, enter into competition with
American mechanics and laborers and
pash them from their places. The pro-
gross of importation is so rapid that the
whole Pacific slope is 'threatened, as it
were, with an inundation of the new
race, and the problem of the honr is the
means of preventing California and its
sister States from degenerating into
Chineee colonics. Such a consummation
would, it is claimed, be disastrous to
tho country, as the Asiatics are cunning,
treacherous and vicious, possessing no
conception of American civilization and
totally unfit to comprehend it. The re-
sult would be to lower the standard of
American manhood and jeopardizo the
destiny of tho nation.
So strong is the feeling on this sub
ject among the people on the Pacific
slope, that a citizens’ committee of
twelvo members has been appointed in
San Francisco, to issue an address and
prepare for a public meeting to send a
delegation to Congress to petition for re
dress, and a bill nos passed the Legis
lature of California granting $5,000 for
tbo expenses of such a delegation. From
the etutementof grievances in nn address
proposed by this committee, it may be
seen that some of the strongest passions
of human nature, and mnny of its dear
est interests enter into this movement.
“The committee appointed by the pub
lic authorities of tho city of San Francis
co to t&ko into consideration the evil of
Chinese immigration and matters of
relief pertinent thereto, believe that
every substantial interest of the people
of tne Pacific coast is jeopardized by that
unrestricted immigration ; that the time
is approaching when, if the evil contin
ues unchecked, they will find themselves
to on intolerable extent pushed from their
vocations and crowded from their
firesides by the increasing immigration
fiowiDg from China; that the evil has
already grown to such proportions ns to
endanger tho public peace and to im
peril tho security of life and property,
and that, steadily growing to more and
moro alarming proportions, the evil
But we hold that the American Conti
nent is a heritage from God and our fore
fathers for the white race, and the attempt
to mongrelize its population with the
colored races, whether from Asia hr Afri
ca, is high treason to both. Nature has
established these ineffaceable lines of de-
markation between races for the purpose
of keeping them soparate and experience
demonstrates that mongrelismis ruinous
and degrading to all. /I

The SroRM is Alabama.—Owing to
interruption in travel and transportation
resulting from the great storm of last
Saturday and Sunday, our first newspa
per reports from Alabama reached Macon
poster,lay. The rain and the winds were
much fiercer thtre than inthis^part of
Georgia, and great damage is reported
in the account by tbo Montgomery Ad
vertiser, which is copied ia this edition.
About eight inches of rain fell in Mont
gomery in thirty-six hours.
Hurry Up.—The Centennial Executive
Committeo has issued another circular
urging upon the Ameriaan people to for
ward their goods for exhibition at the
fair as soon as possible. The buildings
are now ready to receive articles in- all
the departments, and space is available
for all early comers. Those who are be
lated may find themselves crowded ont.
It is urged that first impressions are a
great deal, if not everything; and if the
fair opens badly for want of a full dis
play it will suffer in prestige and in prof
it. The United States should try to be
first, in a double sense, at the national
exposition.
Americas Goods Abroad.—The New
York Bulletin mentions as a sign of the
times that buyers are in the dry goods
market of that city representing the
markets of Russia and Turkey. They
appear to hare been attracted thither by
the extraordinary fact of certain styles
of American cotton goads having found
buyers in Manchester. Their inquiries
appear to have been directed especially
to prints; and some moderate shipments
have been made both to Smyrna and Petition
Kussia. Goods of the same kind have
also been Bent to India. Prints are
cheaper in New York to-day than they
nre in Manchester, and the market nere
is weak, while that of Manchester is
adrancisg.
Tfce Sale or the Academy Lota To-day.
It is known to all, that the beautiful
near the margin of the Oomulgee which is
the site of the “Old Academy,” was do
nated long since by the State of Georgia
to Bibb county for educational purposes.
As has been stated in this paper, the
Academy building which stands in the
centre of the grounds, never commodious
or convenient, is now much dilapidated,
and must be replaced with a new edi-
fioe.
Bat of late years the adjacent let3
have appreciated so much in value, that
the Trustees justly believe that if the
Academy was located elsewhere, and the
donated land divided into lots and sold,
the original object of the grant would
be greatly subserved.
Accordingly, having decided to pursue
that course, and taken all necessary
legal steps, it will be seen by consulting
their advertisement, than the public sale
of six of the the lots will take place at 11
o’cloek to-day on the premises.
These lots, measure 150 by 75 feet in
size, and for building purposes ore con
sidered among tho most eligible in Ma
con. Two have already been sold and
are in process of improvement.
Tho terms of the sale to-day will be
distinctly stated, and provided the as
sessed limit is reached, will bo absolnte,
to the highest bidder.
There will jet remain six lota not
thrown upon the market. It is to hs
hoped that this property, in which every
citizen has a direct interest, will bring
its full valno. From the avails, a male
free high school is designed to be erect
ed on the very central spot in the upper
part of Cotton Avenue, known as the
Beasley tavern.
In conjunction with this, tho Trustees
of the Alexander school contemplate the
constrnction of a suitable building to be
used as a high school for girls, on the lot
where Mr. Bates now teaches. These
two institutions, in connection with
good system of primary schools, and the
noble University and colleges now in
successful operation in our midst, will
make Macon an educational centre, and
prove of priceless valuo to her children,
Economize as wo may, and should, in
all the luxuries, and even necessaries of
life in times ef financial distress like the
present, still, it is to be ardently hoped,
that no step backwards will be taken in
tho education and preparation of our
youth, for the responsible trusts which
will soon be devolved upon them.
prosperity of the Pacific coast, bnt ul
timately the best interests of tho whole
country.”
Chinese emigration to this country
only began about 1853, but it has in
creased with great rapidity during tho
Inst few years. Up to the 1st of Janu
ary, 1874, 144,328 Chinese had arrived,
most of whom have remained in Cali
fornia. By tho census of 1870 there
were 63.199 in the United States, of
whom 49,310 were in California. There
are now unaonbtedly more Chinamen in
that State, thinly settled though it is,
than there nre Irishmen in any States
save Massachusetts, Now York and
Pennsylvania, or Germans in any States
save Illinois. New York, Ohio and Wis
consin. Politicians who have not hesi
tated to declare our institutions in
danger from European emigration, should
easily understand the magnitude of the
trouble with which the peoplo of San
Francisco havo grappled, and sympathize
with their dread of being overwhelmed
by Asiatic barbarism. Philanthropists
who opposed the African slave trade and
negro slavery at the cost of a long civil
war, considering the blood that was pour
ed out as cheaply expended in tho pre
servation of American ideas, should not
be slow to throw themselves into the
field against the introduction of another
servilo race into the country. And yet
the Republican party, which is largely
made up of such politicians and philan
thropists, has looked on consenting at
the importation of Chinese.
Wo nre among those who regard it
moral treason alike to our ancestry and
to onr descendants to surrender control
of American territory to any colored race
whatever. The African race was planted
here without onr or their consent, and as
a British trade speculation, and its ex
istence hero has resulted in perpetual dis
turbance, and wo see no end of the trou
bles. Tho States of the North thought
they had solved the difficulty when they
“lowered the standard of American man
hood” and made tho blacks freemen and
voters; bnt the prospects are they only
added to the vexation and perplexity.
We shall be greatly mistaken if one or
two decades of further experience does
not bring a universal recognition of this
fact. The negroes as a race will in that
time satisfy everybody that, while of the
smallest possible use to American civili-
ration, they are an immense burden—a
constant source of publio demoralization
—“ in everybody’s mess and nobody’s
watch ”—a pest and a peril. The com
mon and moral sense and msthetin in
stincts of the American people will for
ever revolt at the radical idea of extin
guishing the race by process of amalga
mation, and like the Indian, it must re
main separate and isolated till it dies out
of incapacity for self-assertion in the
hopeless career of competition with the
whites.
The yellow Asiatics aro more dreaded
by the Californians simply because they
are a far more sagacious and capable
race than the negroes. The Californians
complain of their rte«, but in reality
they are far less vicious than the blacks.
Comparatively few of them are thieves,
and in respect even to social vices, they
are far better than the blacks. Moreo
ver, they are industrious, pains-taking
and frugal, which the blacks are not;
and they are orderly and submissive to
law and authority, which the blacks are
too fast getting not to be. It is, in fact,
only because the Chinese are apt as nr.
ehanics, and industrious as laborers, and
in both capacities come in a ruinous com-
petion with the whites, because they
can subsist and prosper on less than a
tithe of the white man’s wages—this is
the real burden of the complaint.
Now, when one looks at what the Fed
eral Government has done for American
oitizenship in the Southern States, it
seems hard to ask Southern representa
tives to grant a law of non-importation
against the Chinese to the whites of the
Pacific coast, from the contact and com-
ith the colored Asiatic races.

“ Giants in Tlioso Days.”
The Now York Sun of the 4th instant,
prints a letter from Majsville, Kentucky,
dated 30th March, which narrates at
length the discovery of a cave by a party
of hunters. At the month of tho cave
waa an inscription in hieroglyphics, and,
after threading its labyrinths by the aid
of candles and a rope, they found in a
largo vaulted chamber moro than a hun
dred feet in height,
A GIANT SKELETON.
In the centre of this room there loomed
up out of the darkness an immense
square, moss-covered bunch of loose
stones, carefully laid one upon the other,
after the fashion of the rock fences com
mon in this section of country. There
could be no doubt that this monument
or cairn was the result of human labor,
expended probably thousands of years
ago. The top of this sarcophagns, for
such it proved to be, was covered by
slabs of thin rock, evidently transported
from the surface. They were carefully
removed, disclosing a square vault that
had been plastered with mud mixed with
small pieces of Btraw or twigs of trees or
bushes. In the centre of the vault, in a
sitting posture, was found the skeleton
of a human figure, entire, and perfectly
preserved by the dry atmosphere of the
cave. As there was no appearance of
flesh upon the banes, it is probable the
body had been prepared in the open air,
denuded of the flesh, and afterward re
moved to tho cave for burial. The boneB
were taken carefully out of the vault,
laid upon the floor, and by the rough
measurement the young men were able
to make, found to be those of a man over
mght feet six inches m height. The
sknll measured nearly twelve inches in
the shortest diameter, and had on the
left side an indentation evidently made
by a severe blow.
In the vault at the side of the skeleton
was found an implement of copper, four
feet three inches in length, that weighs
four pounds, and appears to have been
intended for a weapon of defence. It is
roughly made, and was probably fashion
ed trora the native copper of tho lake re
gions. Tne sword is slightly bent, tapers
to a point, and has somewhat the ap
pearance of a saw upon its enttmg edge,
A rude effort at decoration is made upon
the handle by irregular lines running
entirely around it.
In close proximity to this interesting
relic waa found what was at first taken
to be a rude bowl of the same metal, but
it has since been decided that it is a
helmetor head covering. A stone axe of
elegant workmanship, seven flint arrow
points, a stone pipe carved to represent
a frog, a piece of bnckskin four inches
square stained red, a pair of sandals wo
ven from vegetable fibre, and a water
vessel of sun-baked clay were found.
AN ABOBIGINAL WATER COOLER.
The latter is now in my own possession
and is a very beautiful specimen. It
appears to be made from clay tempered
with skill, and is very similar in design
to the pottery occasionally found in Ten
nessee, Arkansas, and some of the o’her
Southern States, and known among an
tiquarians as the “Monnd Builders’
watercooler.” The specimen ia my pos
session weighs one pound and ten ounces,
and holds exactly two and a half pints.
THE STORK IN ALABAMA.
A Terrible Rain and Destructive
Gale.
From the Montgomery Adrerti.«er.J
The most destructive rain within the
history of Montgomery, or this State,
commenced to fall on Saturday morning
last, and at five o’clock in the afternoon
the torrents commenced to pour down,
accompanied by unusually heavy peals
of thunder, the lightning’s red glare,
and fierce bursts of winds, and rattling
of hail. So it continued for bonrs, every
moment increasing the Telocity of the
wind, and the strength of the rain, the
fearful glare of the lightning, and the
ponderous rolls of thunder.
At midnight, and from then on until
away after daylight, the situation was
absolutely frightful, and there seemed
to be no probability of a cessation of the
storm. It was the darkest, most fearful
night ever known in Montgomery, to
have been caused by rain or storm. Tho
destructive winds mercilossly swept
away solid, a3 well as unprotected para
pets, mercantile sign-boards, fruit, bar
ber shop, and cigar stands, frame houses,
shade trees without number, and in sev
eral instances, lifted the heavy brick
from tho very tops of houses, and carried
them pelmell into the streets.
It was an indescribably fearful night;
many a loving mother hugged her babe
closer to her breast, and many a stont
hearted husband and father attempted
to affect indifference. At daylight the
storm seemed to be at even a greater
height, and more wild than at the time of
its commencementon the evening before.
Brick walls gave way without resistance,
and tiny houses in the rear of the capital
near tho bankB of the river, were keeled
over without opposition; ram poured in
to houses where leaEs were never known
before; palings and fences innumerable
were prostrated.
During all this time the bright streaks
of lightning alone relieved the darkness,
darting its forked tongue into every
home, and, apparently, at every object.
The large parapet on top of LeGrand’s
grocery store was knocked into the mid
dle of the street, by one of its playful
darts. Several trees, but no other houses,
as far as ascertained, was struck by light
ning in and near the city.
At about 12 o'clock on Sunday the rain
let up in its fierceness, but there was no
full stoppage until nearly 10 o’clock on
yesterday, there having been a continu
ous rain, therefore, of 36 hours. The
amount of damage that it did cannot now
be estimated. D 1’ing the time 8j inches
of rain water has fallen, and the weather
observer informs us that a correct report
will show even a greater quantity than
that. The Alabama river at 1 o’clock
yesterday had risen 43 feet, and was
then rising at the rate of 4 j inches an
hoar. At 3 p. m. the river was nearly as
close to the Commerce street depot as it
ever was before. In some instances the
plows, hoes, and otber farming imple
ments of plantations contiguous to the
banks of the river, were swept away.
At this time the river looks like the
Gulf of Mexico, there being no land to
sea on the other side as far a3 the eye
can reach. This being the case, it is un
necessary to ask what has become of the
promised crops along its banks. Old
rafters, timbers, logs, etc., without num
ber, have been swept into its bosom by
the Coosa and Tallapoosa rivers. The
storm seems to have been general; it
missed not a spot of land in all this sec-
tion ; it came from the east, and so far
as our information goes, extended to the
Mississippi river, and, perhaps, beyond,
At Decatur, 190 miles north of Mont'
gomery, on the S. & N. road, it is said to
have been even more destructive, if pos
sible, than here.
We doubt if it missed a single portion
of Alabama, unless possibly the extreme
southwest, and the damage we fear is
untold. The telegraph wires came in
for a full share of derangement. The
trains had ceased to arrivo or depart up
to yesterday evening, since Saturday
night. On the Western road at West
Point the bridge was threatened with
being swept away, and the water had
gone up into the store doors of tha town.
On the same road, towards Selma, work
is now progressing at Pmtlala, Talawas-
seo and Catoma creeks, so as to make
them passable. On the Mobile road, at
the latest accounts, tho train which left
Mobile Saturday is now at Greenville,
and the authorities expected it to reach
thiB city last night. On the Montgom-
erv and’ Eafaula road the authorities re
ported the damage not extensive, and
expected to send out a train yesterday
evening. Tho South and North road
brought their passengers to town on a
hand car, transferring some miles abovo.
The pecuniary damage to the railroads
we have no means of ascertaining, but
the temporary inconvenience to the
public will be of short duration. For
the amount of damage done the planting
interests, etc., we will havo to await
further advice.

Our readers have doubtless examined

Euf aula and Alabama Matters.
From the Times of the fitb.J
We met many gentlemen from the
country in town yesterday, and they re
port the storm as disastrous to the
planters generally. All the freshly
plowed ground is washed badly, and in
many places corn will have to be plant
ed over.
The Fort Giine3 Bridge.—We are
pained to learn that the splendid bridge
across the river at Fort Gaines was
swept away by the flood on day before
yesterday. This is really a great ca
lamity, not only to Fort Gaines, bnt to
the Southwestern railroad and the travel
ing public. It was a fine and costly
structure and it will coat a great deal to
replace it. It will lose to Fort Gaines
meat of its Alabama trade.
Immense slaughter of rabbits has taken
place since the river has been so high.
The boys and negroes aoout town have
brought all the batteaux, flee dogs and
shot guns into play, and by visiting all
tho points near the river that are not
overflowed, have had fine sport capturing
all the rabbits that have congregated on
such spots to avoid the rising waters.
Hundreds are thus destroyed every day.
The Storm at Union Springs—We
learn from a gentleman just from Union
Springs, that the storm of last Sunday
was very severe—almost a cyclone. Many
houses were unroofed, and trees and fen
ces prostrated. No damage to life or
limb had been reported up to the time
our informant left.
The farms throughout the county, so
far as we are able to lears, are badly
washed. Luckily but fow planters have
put out their guano as yet; thoae who
have, have almost invariably lost it.
The river, a3 we expected, has been
booming, and was on Tuesday evening
last within three feet of being as high as
it waa about this time two years ago;
but yesterday evening it was gradually
falling.
Monster Hen Egg —We were shown
by Capt. G. A. Roberts, on yesterday,
two of the largest hen eggs we ever saw
before. They were laid by a common
hen, on hi's lot, and measured 61 inches
in circumference one way and about 81
the other, and the two weighed seven
ounces.
The Fruit Crop.—There will be some
peaches in this locality, after all, provid
ed April do.-sn’t treat us to a freeze.
Many of the trees here had not put out
when the cold fell and are now covered
with blossoms. Apples are said to be very
promising here as well as in other sec
tions of the State.
THE C0&IS8 DELUGE.

Whltthorne I* Putting In His Work.
Washington Special to Chicago Times.]
Robeson’s lines are becoming more and
more circumscribed day by day. The
naval committees have gono over a pro
digious amount of testimony, embracing
criminality in every branch of the ser
vice. When Whitthorne gets ready to
report, the country will be more sur
prised than it was in Belknap’s case.
The revelations will not he confined to
one or two or three dozen, or a hundred
briberies or robberies. From Robeson’s
own reports a statement so damaging
will be prepared that not a single pro
test can be made by his party friends.
It may reqaire a fortnight to finish the
showing, but if the report were made to
day Robeson could not escape impeach
ment and popular execration. This as
sertion is made on the strength of mem-
here of the committee who have heard
and examined the evidence of Robeson’s
criminality. The most significant point,
however, is that Danford, a bigoted Re
publican, who has heretofore scouted the
inquiry of the committee, came from tho
committee room this evening and said to
a fellow Republican: “ I am sick and
discouraged. Nothing can save Robeson.
The evidence is overwhelming against
him.” This evidence, it must be borne
in mind, is not that taken before the real
estate pool committee, which everybody
holds to be abundant to drive the shame
less robber from the place he disgraces.

Co. It will be remembered that some
time since one G. P. Cheoves brought
suit against tho firm of Clews A Co.,
claiming to be a partner in the house,
basing bis interest on certain influences
alleged to have been procured by him,
through which his firm abroad became
custodian of tbo Government funds. This
suit was brought to a sudden and mys
terious termination. The allegation is
that it was the original intention of the
Government to to give Clews the whole
account, bnt that it was divided on the
manipulation of Huntington and Jay
Cooke. Robeson’s letter to Clews, pub
lished some weeks since, throws light
upon this decision and tho motives that
constrained the administration to make
it. It is alleged that a large sum of
money passed to secure the transfer of
this account. Tho names of several la
dies in society are said to figure in the
correspondence, which it is the object of
the committee to unearth. It is further
claimed that there were brokers in tho
premises between the high contracting
parties. The State Department Expec-
ditures Committee are informed that the
$150,000 Benjamin H. Chener claimed as
promised him for getting the State De
partment’s fiscal agency in London, for
Clews', Habicht & Co. was to be shared
with Louis Dent.
The Waynesboro Expositor.
This sprightly and esteemed weekly
complains that the account of the arrest
and trial of tho notorious Morns, was
copied into this paper from the Chronicle
and Sentinel, to the neglect of its own
fall statement of all the proceedings in
the case.
This was not intentional, as that num
ber of the Expositor did not come to hand,
or was appropriated by some meddler be
fore it was scanned.
The items below relating to the early
history of Burke, and “ Old Church, 1
ene of its mo3t ancient houses of worship,
aro clipped from the Expositor of April
6th. They are very interesting:
Burke County.—This county was sur
veyed and called St. George’s Parish in
1758. In 1777 the name was changed to
Buiko, in honor of tne illustrious Ed
mund Burke, a member of Parliament,
and a staunch friend of the American
colonists. In 1793 a part was ent off
and added to Screven, and in 1789 a por
tion wa3 added to Jefferson. The county
is 32i miles long and 32 wide. In 1850
there were 1.017 dwellings, 1,017 fami
lies, 2,757 white males. 2,359 white fe
males, 80 free colored males, 72 colored
females. Total free population 5,26?.
Slaves 10,832. Farms 712 and 41 manu
facturing establishments.
Old Church.—This was formerly an
Episcopal church, and had a glebe of 47
acres, and was known as St. George’s
Church. As an Episcopal Church it had
the following rectors, 1770 and 1772 Rev.
Alexander Findley. In 1773, Mr. F. went
to North Carolina; in 1774 Rev.Mr. Sey
mour and Rev. John Holmes; in 1776-77-
78 Rev. Mr. Holmes; in 1780 Rev. James
Brown. The property finally passed in
to the hands of the Methodists. The old
building has been torn down, and a more
modem edifice erected in its stead.
It is said that, after the location of
Waynesboro, for the county site, the Jus
tices of the Inferior Court passed an or
der that tho Old Church building should
be torn down, removed to Waynesboro,
and converted into a Court house, and
that this would have been done, but for a
lawyer by the name of Allen, who said
that the passage of Scripture would be
fulfilled, which says: “My house shall
be called a House of Prayer, but you have
made it a den of thieves.”
The Methodist calls attention to the
fact that the South is relatively the
Protestant section of this country. The
entire country lately covered by slavery
has a smaller Roman Catholic population
than the two States of Masrachasetts
and New York. Illinois has more Cath
olics than the twelve Southern States;
Indiana as many as ten Southern States;
Kansas has nearly 5.000 more Roman
Catholic church-sitings than Virginia.
Christian AJroeate.
Florida News.
Reading by Mkr. Stowe.—It is an
nounced that Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe
has consented to give a select reading at
the church, corner Church and Cedar
streets, on Friday evening, April 7th, at
S o’clock, for the benefit of the Union
Congregational Church. This is an op
portunity to enjoy an evening’s enter
tainment and assist in a most worthy
enterprise.—Jacksonville Union.
Five inches and eighteen one-hun
dredths of rain fell in Jacksonville on
Sunday.
Speaking of the municipal election on
the 3d insk, tne Press says:
We have elected onr Mayor, Marsha',
Clerk, Assessor and Collector, and seven
of the nine aldermen. We present these
officers to the citizens of Jacksonville
with the confident assurance that the
affairs of tho city will be so managed os
to insure progress and prosperity, estab
lish confidence and reflect tho highest
credit upon their administration. The
aldermen elected are Messrs. G R. Jocet,
G. Muller, A. E Sawyer, T. E. Buckman,
J. H. Burton, A. Doggett, J. E. Har’-
ridge and B. H. Webster. Messrs. J. C.
Greeley and Wm. Simons are tied, each
one receiving 381 votes. Three cheers
and a tiger for the reform ticket.
How to Head off Mosquitoes.—Mr.
Codrington, of the Agriculturalist, offers
the following as a protection against the
mosquito:
Dry tho leaves of the Vanilla plantain
(Liatris) and use as a “ smudge” in mos
quito districts, or evaporate a small lump
of camphor, or pour a few drops of coal oil
in a basin of water to be rubbed over the
face and hands, and the “ small voice of
the night” will lose its terrors.
Not so Bad After All.—The gardens
around here do not now-appear to be so
badly injured by the recent cold as was
at first teared. Many vegetables are
coming oat fresh and green again, and
nothing has really been killed except
perhaps cucumbers and melons. By-the-
way, we have been told that the cold
wave which struck ns extended way up
the St. John’s, was seriously felt in St.
Augustine, and went down the Gulf coast
as far south as Punta Rosa. Where is
tno frost line ?—Floridian.

Dyspepsia, constipition and bilious

The surest way to banish the “blues”

l’orman. of Florida.
The investigation into tho case of Rep
resentative Furman, of Florida, was re
8umed Monday by the Committee on
Civil Service.
L. J. Dennis, State Senator of Florida,
was questioned. "Witness offered Pur-
man $300 for an office worth ?1,000, but
he declined.
On cro-s-eiamination the witness said
Furman might possibly hare regarded
the offer as a joke, but he himself meant
business. The witness was present when
a Mr. Wentworth offered Furnam $1 000
per aanum for the collectorship at Fen-
sacola. Purman wanted $3,000 in ad
vance from Wentworth. Furman did
not say he would procure the appoint
ment for Wentworth for $3,000, hut said
he would not get it without the $3,000
and that it must be paid in advance.
Wentworth did not secure the ap
pointment, and the witness thought the
matter fell through because of a lack of
confidence between them. Purman would
not get the appointment for Wentworth
and trust him for the $3,000, and Went
worth would not pay the money and trust
to Purman to get the position for him.
So the matter failed.
The witness wa3 asked if it wag the
understanding in Florida that people are
.to pay their members of Congress for
obtaining positions ?
The witness replied: “ That depends
entirely upon who represents us.”
Question—Do you mean to say that
such is the custom thpre ?
Answer—Well, some of onr members
have such a reputation. [Laughter.]
The impression of witness was that
Furman goes in for making money, and
would not let a $10 bUl stand between
him and his friends.

for fattening hogs, poultry—and children. One
acre will fatten more hogs than ten acre* of the
