The Arnold’s of Atlanta attacked
C'apt. John Conley in the lattcrs office,

were flourished about in a very reck

another one is on.
The quality of the liquor there

The trouble in the pension office is
causing trouble elsewhere. The other
day in Cairo, Ill., two republicans
quarrelled over Tanner’s removal,
and one of them struck the other on
the head with a molasses jug. If
Tanner could lac reinstated, the man
who was injured with the molasses
iug might get a pension.—News.
The Philadelphia Times (Ind.Dcm.)
puts it this way: “Any man who as
sumes the office of Commissioner of
Pensions and undertakes to reverse the
Tanner policy, and conducts its affairs
honestly and faithlully, must meet the
howls ol the whole body ol pension
shriekers. And unless he does this he
will ruin the administration before a
year is out.”
The bill for the establishment of a
state board of health came up this
week before the House, and was re
committed in order to adjust conflict,
ing interests. It will be reported
again at an early day, and it is to be
hoped will promptly pass. In case of
an epedcmic, a state board of health
is a grqat safeguard, in tact, is essen

M
Gov. Seay, of Alabama, will be gen
erally indorsed throughout the country
in his action in reference to the Geor

back to Alabama and punished the
same as common mortals. Position
and wealth should not shield a man.
This, however, is too otten the case,and
it is a blot upon the fair escutcheon of
our country. In the impartial cn
' forccmcnt of law, lies the safety of the
citizen, whether he be rich or poor.
Speaking of the Day of Metnoilal,
or the Day of Judgment, celebrated
last Thursday by the jewish race, a
contemporary says: “Rcpentence is
therefore in order. The rabbis enjoin
that lull restitution be made of all
wrongfully taken; that all wrongs be
righted and every enemy be made a
friend; in a word, that the suppliant
make peace with man before preparing
to make peace with his Creator. This
is the uiie import of the festival.
The Tare Question.
Cotton men, including buyers, sel
lers and producers, are still at sea on
the question of tare. It would appear
that to take off twenty-four pounds
from each bale covered with jute, and
sixteen pounds from each bale covered
with cotton bagging,ought to be satis
factory. These figures are supposed
to represent the weight of covering and
tics, and, being deducted Irom the
bale, leaves the net cotton. The
farmer only wants pay for every pound
of cotton, and he is certainly entitled
to this. Heretofore, Liverpool has
been taki g thirty pounds from each
bale, and i lie American buyers have,
with this knowledge, bad to conform to
Liverpool's rule. Upon this basis it
will be seen that the farmer
actually loses thirty pounds of cotton,
less what lie gets for his bagging and
tics, which is calculated in with tl
cotton. There is a great d.vctsity of
opinion, as to the manner of deducting
the tare. Many differ, widely differ
on this matter. The cotton exchanges
themselves are at sea on the
subject; some professing a willingness
to adopt the new rule, otheis hesitating,
while still others have declared they
will not adopt it. One thing appears
clear to the writer: if the American
cotton exchanges, handling and con
trolling, as they do the entire crop of
American cotton, amounting, say, to
seven million bales, ot which amount
Liverpool takes, in round numbers,
five million bales; if the American ex
changes will, we repeat, stand firm as
a unitin this question, there is little
doubt but that Liverpool would even
tually fall into line.
Fricks.
That was a narrow guage member

My disease (psoriasis) lirst broke out on inv

most covering my face. It ran into my eyes,
and the physician was afraid I would loso inv
eyesight altogether. It spread all over my head,
and my hair fell 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 entire body, my face, head, and
shoulders being the worst. The white eoabs fell
constantly from my head, shoulders and arms;
the skin would tliickcn and he red and very
itchy, and would crack nnd bleed if scratched.

the dreadful disease from which I had suffered
