There is a painful and distressing

Our Penal Code.
The legislature should take steps for
the reformation ot our penal code. The
main body of it was enacied in 1833,
and for fifty odd years the most numer
ous, perplexing and incongruous
amendments have been tacked on.
When the other laws of the state were
codified in 1S60, the criminal laws un
derwent no revision whatever. The
old code of 1833 was simply inserted
bodily, numbered into sections,corres
ponding to the original paragraphs.
ifL'he original code of ’33, the acts rela
tive to criminal matters passed since,
and the decisions of the Supreme court
on code and acts from a heterogeneous
mass, without order, precision or sys
tem. The guilty sometimes escape;
the innocent are not infrequently con
victed; penalties are, in many cases,
grossly disproportionate to offense,
and the expense of the administration
of the system is entirely too great.
To maliciously put out a man’s eye
or to bite off his nose is simply a mis
demeanor, punishable only by fine or
chain gang; to steal a bale of cotton
is a felony, punishable by from one to
five years in the penitentiary. A
sharper who cheats you out of 810,000
is punishaDle only as for a misdemean
or, while a collector who embezzles 10
cents, is a felon who may be sent to
the penitentiary for five years. He
who attempts to ravish may get off
with one year in the penitentiary,while
he who steals a mule may go for four.
It is as great a crime to break into the
hen house or smokery adjacent to your
dwelling with intent to steal, as it is to
break into your dwelling itself with
intent to kill.
To conyict a swindler, however co
lossal, costs about $40, and if he gods
to the chain gang, the county gets the
benefit of his labor. To convict the
butler who embezzles a spoon, costs
you §130, and his labor goes to benefit
the penitentiary lessees, while the tax
payers of the county foot the hill.
The entire penal code needs revision
both on its legal and economic sides.

“It isn’t every body I’d put to sleep
in this room,” said Mrs. Jinks to the
fastidious and exceedingly nervous
young minister who was spending the
night in B. at her house. “This here
room is full of sacred associations to
me,” she went on. “My first hus
band died in that bed, with" his head
on these very pillers, and poor Mr.
Jinks died sitting right in that corner.
Sometimes Jwhen 1 come into the
room in the dark, I think I see him
settin’ there yet. My own father died
layin’ right on that lounge under the
winder. Poor Pa! He was a spirit
ualist, and he allers said that he’d ap
pear in this room after he died, and
somettmes I’m foolish enough to look
for him. If you see anything of him
to-night, you’d better not tell me, for
it’d be a sign to me that there was
somethin’ in speeritualism, and I’d
hate to think that. My son fell dead
of heart disease, right where you stand.
He was |a doctor, and there’s two
sure-enough, whole skeletons in
that closet that belonged to him, and
a dozen skulls in that lower drawer.
Well, good night, and pleasant

London, Sept. 20.—Lawson Tait,
the eminent genealogist, in an inter
view, said he was of the opinion that
the Whitechapel, Chelsea and Batter
sea murders, were committed by the
same criminal, probably a lunatic
woman, employed in a slaughter house,
and subject to fits of epileptic fury.
liiau.iN, Sept. 20—A sham fight
took place at Hanover to-day between
troops using ordinary powder and oth
ers using the new smokeless kind. The
great superiority of the smokeless pow

to judge the distance or direction of
the fire and'(he absence of smoke in

Augusta, Ga., Sept. 20,—At a

It appearing that the agricultural
interests of the south demand such
action, Augusta fully indorses the
principal set forth in the resolution

favorably upon the question as will
warrant its becoming a rule of the

Atlanta, Ga., Sept. 20.—Reliable
information says a combination in
which a big Kentucky and Ten
nessee trunk line ire interested, is
watting to lease the Western aud
Atlantic railroad. If successful in
securing control of the line, this com
bine will next take steps to get hold of
the Atlanta and Florida and build a
connecting link to the sea. It has
not been determined yet what point
on the coast will be selected as an
outlet, but Brunewick’s chances ap
pear to be the best. Prominent
Georgians are said to approve the
schenfe and are now in Atlanta using
their influence for its success.

cod incurable. Cured by Cnticurn
Kcmcdien.
My disease (psoriasis) first broke out on my
left" cheek, spreading across my nose, and al
most covering my face. It ran Into my eyes,
and the physician was afraid I would lose my
eyesight altogether. It spread all over my head,
ami my hair foil out, until I was entirely bald-
headed; it then broke out on my .arms and
shoulders, until my arms were just one sore. It
covered my entiro body, my face, bead, and
shoulders being the worst. The white scabs fell
constantly from mv head, shoulders nnd arms;
the skin* would tlilckcn and be red and very
itchy, ami would crack and bleed if scratched.
After spending many hundrods of dollars, I was
pronounced inenrabfo. I heard of the Cuticuha
Remedies, ami after using two bottles of the
Cuticuha Resolvent, I could see a change; and
after I had taken four bottles, I was almost
cured, and when I had used six bottles of Cuti
cura Resolvent and one box of Cuticuha,
and one cake of Cuticuha Soar, 1 was cured of
the droadful disease from which I had suffered
lor five years. I thought the disease would
leave a very deep scar, but the Cuticuha Reme
dies cured it without any scars. I cannot ex
press with a pen what I suffered before using
the Cuticuha Remedies. They saved my life,
and I feel it my duty to recommend them. My

as their giving away to their customers of

simply enormous in this very valuable ar

never disappoints. Coughs, Colds, Astlmma,
