Cul>l>oiloe TVilliams, n son of Mr. Jerry Williams who lives a few miles east of town, tells us the following: He found a honey tree a few days ago, and cutting it down got from it a beautiful supply of honey, the tree having a hollow about 15 I vet long and C inches in diameter and well filled with the sweet stuff from top to the bottom of the hollow. But honey was not all that the tree contained.

LITTLE MARTHA. All young folks generally like to hear about good children, and I am now goin^to tcii yon about a child named Martha. Site was the only daughter of a grocer who lived in the middleofn large town; and, as you may think, her father and mother were very proud of her. Martha. I am sorry to say, was not always a good girl, for at the age of three years, from play ing with rude and noisy children, she became rude and noisy too. and sometimes grieved her parents very much. Martha's mother was very kind, and did not like to punish her dear girl, and so she would say, ‘"Don’t, roy love; don't be so rude; it does nut look well.’' But Martha, like many other peo pie, thought site knew best. She would go out into the slreei, in spite of commands to the contra ry. Little children should learn to do as they arc told, and howev er wise they may think them selves, they should always mind when spoken to. It is not intend cd to keep you from playing and enjoying yourselves; but only at- proper times, anil with proper per sons. But the mischief did not stop here; for besides getting rude, Martha began to quarrel, and even to use bad words ami to break the Sabbath. But things did not long remain in this slate; for Her fattier threatened her with punishment if she left the house without leave. Martha did not much like the thought of this, and promised her father if he would forgive her for the past, she would try to behave better. I am glad to say. in this instance Martha kept her word. She thought up on her conduct, and saw its evil. She would often sit iqioD a stool at her mother's feet and learn such pretty hymns, and her moth er would talk to her so lovingly, that under God's blessing, she he came quite a different child, and she would often say, “Mother's only little girl should not be a naughty girl.” She would, after this, ofLen a^ her eldest brother to read to her about heaven, and about hell, and Jesus Christ, and the more she heard of saered things the more she wanted to hear, so lovely did they appear in her sight. Before this, Martha used to be proud and-vain, anil pleased w hen anyone praised her beauty. But one day. when a lady said she was a pretty little girl, she whis pered to her and said, "I d rather be a good girl.” Martha was now five years old, and much improv ed. She would talk of the glory ot heaven, the kindness of God, ami many other subjects’, and was learning to read very well. When silling on her mother's knee one day, she said, “Mother, I have been thinking, suppose I should have to die soon?” “Well, my dear,” said her mother. “I hope you will go to heaven.” “I hope so, too,” replied Martha, “but 1 am afraid not.” “And why are you afraid?” replied her mother. “Because I have sinned; I hare sinned against Jesus Christ, and greatly offended him.” “But we know that though you have offend ed Him, yet Ho is rich' in mercy to all who call on Him.’’ “Will He forgive me, do you think?” “Yes, if you ask Him He will; if you re- ally feel that you have a wicked heart, if you flee for refuge to the Savior, He will answer and par don.” “What shall I say, mother?'' “What do you say when yon want me to give you anything?” “‘If you please, will you give me what 1 want?’ ” “And what do you want God to give you?” “A new heart.” ■Wliat should you say then?” “ ‘O Lord, Jesus.gire me a new heart.’ ” ••That is right; kneel down, and say in faith, -God, he merciful to me a sinner.’ Ami, though yeu arc but a babe, be will not refuse your prayer.’’ Martha's mother was pleased to hear her little one talk in this manner. Site prayed that God wouhl gtve her eternal life forevermore. Some lime after ihi^ the eldest boy in the fsmily, Samuel, caught the measles and had them so severely that be was thought likely to die. But God was pleased to raise him up ami give him health agaio. When When Martha knew that tiie dis ease was catching, she. felt alarm ed, and said, “if I should die. whither should I go?” and she be gan in earnest, iu her poor way. to pray, "Lord, prepare me for death.” Well, several days pass ed and little Martha's head began to ache, and she laid herself down in her bed, and her eyes grew so weak she could hardly bear to look at the light. By aud by poor Martha's head grew worse, and she was wliat we call delirious; that is, she kcew not what she did or said, and sometimes talked very foolishly. But when she came to herself again, she said, “I am one of Jesus Christ’s lambs; God loves , ine and I love God, and shall soon be with Him, and be a shining angel.” “But,” replied Samuel, whom God had cured, “I aui ' spared, and |ierhaps you may he too; which should you like best, Martha?” “I should like it to be just which way God pleases,"’ an swered the dear little girl. And as Martha continued to grow worse, the doctor sent a large blis ter to be applied to, her breast; when she saw it she asked if il would pain her, and on being told that il would, she at first refused to have il on. Her nurse told her tliis wns wrong; tor if we do not use the meaDg we cannot expect to get well. qp hearing this, with Iter own dear little hands she un tied the strings of her Digblgown, and %ai<l sweetly: “Very well, nurse, I will have it on, and you may hold my hands too, and then I shall not touch it.” “No, my Uve,” replied the’ kind nurse. “There ia no need for that; God will give you patience if you ask Him,’’ and indeed there was- no need, for after this die was not heard to complain. But Martha grew still worse, and though sev eral leeches were applied and an other blister, she got no belter.— She suffered greatly, but was very patient, and sometimes when she fell so ill she could not help cry ing, she would meekly say, “Nurse I hope God will not be angry with me for crying.” One day she said to her father, “How good God is! stwne poor children cannot have such nice things as 1;” and at another time, after she had been lying very quiet for some hours, she began to sing, and although it did not aound like her usual singing, yet it showed how happy and contented she was. “I thank you,” she wdnld say. when any thing was given her, and it was a pleasure to wait upon tier. One evening her mother asked her what she was thinking of, and she di reclly answered: “About seeing God. 1 will see God before yon will, mother, and Timothy and I’aul, and all the good men you have told me about; and shall never sin any more.” The next day when the doctor went to ser her he shook his head; on observ ing this, she said, when he was gone, “Mother, what made the doctor shake his head?” Her mo iher was standinghy the bedside weeping, and she said, as she stooped down and clasped her child in her trembling arms, “Oh, my dearest gul, il is because he knows you must soon die.” “And be laid in the cold ground,” said the dying babe.” “Yes,” replied the weeping mother. “Well, but it is only my body. I, my soul, shall go to heaven,” said Martha; and in this way she w ould try to comfort her mourning friends.— But Martha’s cheeks began to look more and more ghastly, and her lips turned-rosy red, were very parched, and she began to sink very fast. As her kind brother, Samuel, was sitting and watching [ iier, he though he saw her fea tures change, and ran to call bis mother. When she come, she look the gasping child in her arms, and in a few minutes il was all over. Martha did not struggle nor groan, but breathed a long sigh and her spirit, I trust arose on high to the dimes of bliss. Farewell, little Martha, farewell, for the gates of joy have received lliee.

We called on a certain : young man of this town who was | quite sick and no joke about it. j The next time we went he was j i much better and we wondered ! why he should improve so rapidly in such a short lime.

East Macon has a very strong temperance lodge, and it is doing a vast amount ol good work for 1 he cause. One reason for its success lies in the fact that the officers never lose an opportunity to work upon the weak wherever found and induce them by moral suasion to abstain from tbe drink that brings so many to ruin. Sergeant Sobers is a resident of East Macon, and while a good friend of the lodge, tells this on one of the officers who occupies one of the high chairs: It seems that this officer went out into the country a short time ago to make a visit, and the good lady of the house at which lie stop* [»ed offered him among other things a glass of very fine brandy cherries of her own brandying. Tile officer felt called upon to de liver a sort ot temperance lecture, and finally, as be pointed out the evils of intemperance, waxed quite eloqnent. He pointed out to the good housewife how the young are led astray by beginning with such inviting and insidious things as brandy cherries, ami in other wavs sent pangs into her lender heart. After the temperance man's de parlure, she went to her well filled pantry and took therefrom twenty- one jars of brandy cherries and emptied them out at the window. Now it happened that the lady’s flock of turkeys, some twenty-five or more, saw the cherries rolling about on the ground, and suppos ing il was some new kind of pat ent food, went to work on them, and suiting their tastes cxaclly aoon cleared up the lot. In a short while there were apparently dead turkeys ali over the yard. The lady saw them and supposed that some plague had enfladed their ranks. Being of an econom ical turn she had every one of them plucked so as to save tbe feathers and then had the bodies carted oft'. Imagiae the lady's horror when evening came to see the flock of turkeys, nude and dejected, com ing up to the house! They had sobered up to find themselves picked clean, aud to save their lives they didn't know when or how it happened. Being warm weather the lady has bo|>es of saving the turkeys, but the next tein|>erance man who calls at her house may ex|icet to leave with bis head picked as clean as the turkeys.—Macon Telegraph. few days ago a negro was pointed out to the writer, who was sent to the penitentiary for ten years from Hart county for burglary. He set red out his time, and when he reached Madi son county on his way home, be broke into a smokehouse ami stole some meat. He was sent back to the penitentiary for three years.

The Czar of Russia. Stung by the taunts of his cow ardice, when he made n visit to Moscow, the hot bed of nihilism, the czar insisted npon walking alone through a crowd of twenty or thirty thousand people, without the slightest prolecliun but his own sword. The walls of the city bad two nights before beenmyste rionsly decorated with posters an nouncing that tiie end of Alexan tier's reign had come; that he had been tried and found wanting; that the “committee” had declar ed his death for refusing to give the people a constitutional gov ernment. Many arrests had been made by the police, who, with all their numbers and acumen, bad not been able to delect tbe myste rious billposters, and tberc was great excitement throughout the entire city. When the morning of the day on which the czar's death was to occur arrived, he announced bis intention of attending mass at the church of the Annunciation, with in the walls of the Kremlin, and a quarter of a mile or so from tbe palace. The czarina and the oth er members of his family implored him to take no such risk; they begged him to have mass sung in the chapel of the palace, but he declined, and even ordered that the police guard should lie with drawn. He said that if his time to die had come lie was ready, but he would uotdie like a coward in seclusion, but he would die like a soldier, with bis uniform on and Ilia sword in bis band, in the presence of l.is people, and so he left the palace alone, clad in the uniform of s field marshal, re splendent with gold and silver lace, and walked across the parade ground to the church. The news of bis rashness spread quickly among the people, who were naturally on the qui rive, ow ing to the mysterious proclama tion of the nihilists, and before the mass was over the area within the Kremlin walls was crowded with all sorts and conditions of men, twenty or thirty thousand in number. After ma^s was sung, and lie had c«uniiilled his soul to God, the czar, with iiis glow in his hand, left the church anil en tered the throng, which opened to make passaga for him, but one so narrow that lie could touch the bodies of those who stood on eith er hand. No bomb was required on such an occasion; a pistol, or even a knife, would have done the business, but with Lis head erect, and bowing to those who had sa inted him, the emperor walked the entire distance. The crowd was silent and almost breathless. Every man present expected something would occur, but tbe only break in the czar’s walk that morning was when be reached tbe steps of the palace, slopped, turn ed his fsce to the people and spoke to them. He said that he had been told that he should bare trouble if he came to Moscow; that since he bod arrived he bad been warned by myeteiions enemies, whose mo tive be could not understand, that tbe present day was to be bis last. He bad therefore done as all men should do who expected danger— gone to chorcb to nek forgiveness for bis sins and protection from on high. That protection was not denied him. His body, like his soul, was in the hands of Ged t and man bad no power to injure him without the divine decree, lie, therefore, feared nothing, and believed that as long as he gov erned the empire with wisdom he should be allowed to live. Then, thanking the people with hearty words for their loyally, he bowed and entered the palace. There bad been silence til! then, but as tbe czar disappeared tbe crowd broke into a cheer that al most reached the sky.—Chicago Sews. The Verdict I miwliuowft. W. D.
