I .'X ( A lady, disturbed by an aged darkey, who I e-ich day seated himself on her porch and went to sleep in the sun, with upturned | bead. oj-ety mouth and prodigious snore, concluded she would try an experiment.— I For this purpose she procured a smaH.| iece 1 of ice and dropped into The huge orifice that I served «s Sambo’s’mouth. It disappeared I like.a shot, and with a cough and a snort, i Sambo started to his feet. "Ugh !” hecried. I as the ice sent violent thrills through his stomach. "What dis’’’ and I.is lingers; clutched nervously the afflicted parts. Just then some one cried out iit the bouse that a big rat had run down "Uncle Sam stiirogt." This added terror to the pain, lie rolled on the. banquette and cried lustily for help. "Fore God, mis Sus, he’s knawin’ out’n pie. ]' I feel him. Oh.golly,.he’s kill’ll me!’’and the whites of the darkey’s eyes protruding like saucers, and the convulsed and an guished face showed that real pain was < strongly enhanced by his imaginary terror. "Oh golly, how he do jump and kick about!” and Sambo gave himself up to a] paroxysm of lamentations. “Drink warm I water and drown him, Uncle Sam,’“she suggested. Without a moments hesitation Sam started for the water plug. He turnejL on the crank and the water started. Sam glued his lipsto the-nozzle until his sides were putted, out,.like an inflated balloon. “Htpv do you feel now, Uncle Sim?” the! landlady inquired, as Sam staggered baek to his seat. “I guess he’s drowned missus but here's what's troublin’ dFs cbilt** how’s dat rat gwine to git out’n dar ?" SCRIPTURAL CASES ofIMMEKSION- We have in birr cflv a Colored barber, who • is a very enthusiastic Baptist, and frequent ly engages in theological discUSsiorft. I approached Him dud day while entangled in one of these discussions withan old Ger man from the country. The barber had evidently been • advocating rather strongly ’ the doctrine or practice of inimerson. ‘*Well,li said the German, "I joost. don’t remember but three places in the Bible ' where immersion is mentionedat all—onlv three places. The first was where the Egyptians were pursuing the Jsrealites ' through the Red Sea, and the Lord caused the waters to flow back.on them, and they ■ were all immersed. The second place was where the Lord commanded Noah to take all his I'uiuily into tbe Ark, after which He catis'ed it to rain for forty days and nights, and all those outside the ark were immers ed. The third place was where the Savior caused the devils to go 'into the herd of swine, and they rushed down a steep lull fStbilie seq, and ’be_y_were a_lb,im mersed.”. only reply .’the barber made to this was, “Yas)yas 1 yas!”—Harper's Magazine. - >■———: A physician says: "Although they very strongly resemble each otlucr, the desire for opium and the desire for liquor, yet I j think the. former ii much stronger an,d far more uncontrollable than the latter. The morphine eater is lost to all sense of honesty, truth, or decency when bis appetite for morphine is unsatisfied, and he will resort to any means, deceit or dishonesty to obtain the drug to satisfy his craving. The Word' of an opium eater is good for nothing, is absolutely unreliable.” A New’ York clergyman says be "doesn’t j know himself.” He should get nominated | and run for a political office if he wants to ' be. told all about himself, and more'too. i The newspapers and speakers on the other , side would crowd more astonishing and j awful things into his pedigree than he ever j dreamedof. He.wouldbosurprised to learn ; that he starved bis .grandfather to death | and threw bis grandmother down an old | well,— “When you choose a wife, young man, don’t go it blind," saysareligiousexchange, “but proceed prayerfully, quietly, calmly and considerately to find out her faultsand l foibles, likes and dislikes.” Good as far as it goes; but what the young man wants to know is, lioW'Cdn he manage to stock up all the aforesaid information unless he marries the girl beforehand. The village of Kollmar, in Holstein, is . famous for the longevity of its inhabitants. It has a population of only fourteen or fifteen hundred souls, all told. A diamond wedding—the seventy-fifth anniversary— has just been celebrated there; the tenth in fourteen years, and two others are impen ding. Bishop Clark once went to see one of his parishoners, a lady with a prodigous family, which had recently been increased.

The following is an address, sa s the Athens Oironictc, to the Democratic voters j of Clarke county, written by Ernnry rfpeer. President of the Deqiocratic clqf», in J.me ! 1872* It was at the lime wlien’Mr. R. Hi Lampkini'art Independent,xvas running, for the Legislature against M. H. DihldAw, reg ular nomineb. It was true in T 872. It is true also ip 1878. Let Mr. Speer be judged by the words out of his own mouth. The address' wqs so admirable that, oiTm'otion it was unanimously approved, aud 300 copies ordered to be printed-for distribution. The original address is to be fountl in theSouth efn Wntehmim, of June 26. 1872: "The Democratic Club of Athens. In view of the fact that they are an organized body of Democra s, ’deem it proper that they e :press’thi-ir earnest wish that noman who claims to !>c a Democrat will cast’ his vote in the coining election, forJiiiy quin save the nominee of the party. Such ill-advised vot ing has defeated the Democracy of tiie County heretofore; and that man'who. con trary to the wishes of tbe..peqpl,e, will insist on opposing the iiou/ipee, M .a disorganizer and no friend to tbWsuciess of Democratic principles. These are but tw<»j>artfess—the Democrats and the Radicals—and one who opposes the Democrats furthers tl;e cause of Radicalism.

Not infrequently the best of flour gets all the blame, when in reality the dark color and poor tasto are both caused by the use of inferior raising powder. Many baking powders now highly recommended by grocers, and hence largely sold, arc irntde of old hones ground up, and by a chemical process mixed with other i ingredients. Before lending their influence .to increase the sale of any baking powder, grocers ! would do well to ascertai.i the reputation and I standing of its manufacturers. They would thus avoid beaming instrumental, in perpe- ■ trating u. fraud on their customers, and would j in Uie long run make mofe money. Os course 1 . no honest man would knowingly lend himself : totsuch a fraud upon Jiis customers, and it is 1 very poor policy for any grocer t > attempt.to palm off inferior goods when the best are asked for.
