Floods of new tills are pouring in:o the house and senate. It is the custom now to kick grand pa’s hat around: Poor Harrison, The Columbus Exposition has been a big success. It is the way Colum bus has of doing things. Danville, Indiana, boasts of a man who weighs 907 lbs. He is about as large as the democratic majority in the couniry. The Valdosta Times, says: Poston has drawn the co'or line, and declares that Ethiopean damsels can- ■ not enter the New England conserva tory of music. The stockholders of the Adams Ex press Co. held its annual meeting in New York yesterday and resolved to have nothing to do with lotteries by carrying money or drawings or tickets. Coffins, under the McKinley bill, have advanced. That bill taxes the poor while living, and pursues the dead down into their graves. No won- dsr the country has gone democratic from “eend to eend.” Can I leave some tracts here ? in* quired the caller. You can if you want to, replied the dejected womatr with the baby in her arms, but it won’t do any good. We’re getting ready to ' move to Arkansaw. Col. Ingersoll predicted ten years ego that by this time two theatres would be built for one church. Chap* lain McCabe, of the Methodist persua sion, remindel him the other day, saying: "The time is up; the Metho dists arc now building four churches every day—one every six hours. Please venture another prediction for the year 1900.” The State Geologist of New Jersey says the coast of the state is sinking at the rate of at least two feet in a cen tury. Other observers hold that the rate is much more rapid. It would be a positive loss to the democratic parly, if New Jersey should sink out of sight. We hope New Jersey will keep her head above water until afier 1892. Knew Too Much: Intelligent Com- positor-That new reporter spells ’vict uals’ ‘v-i-t-a-l-s.’ Foreman—Yes, he’s fresh; mak’er right, and drum’r in here; want to go to press in just three minutes. And this was what the pub lic read when the paper was issued: The verdict of the coroner’s jury was that the deceased came to his death from the effects of a gunshot wound in the vituals. Hints from Brown-Sequard. Dr. Brown-Sequard, in one of his lectures, with reference to a check on sneezing, coughing, etc., says: "Coughing can be stopped by press ing on the nerves on the lip in the neighborhood ol the hose. Sneezing may be stopped by the same mechan ism. Pressing in the neighborhood of ear, right in front of the ear, may stop coughing. It is also of hiccoughing, but much less so than for sneezing or coughing. Pressing very hard on the top of (he mouth inside is also a means of stopping coughing, and many say that the will has immense power. A Tribute to Cleveland. At the Thurman banquet, the chair man thus alluded to Grover Cleve land : We have with us civillians and war riors, congressmen, senators and gov ernors ; we have with us young men with their ardor and strength ; old men with their recoll^ions and traditions from the days of^efferson and Jack- son, and we have with us that other man who completes the American tri umvirate ot Democratic Presidents [applause], who has done more than any other American to instill in the hearts of the people the sacredness and holiness of an oath of public of fice, that man who not only proved that he would rather be right than Presi dent, but who as President has been brave enough and strong enough to rul ■ in behalf of our whole people, and not of a par y or class. ['"beers and applause]. Neither the Queen o( England, he Emperor of Germany nor the Czar of all the Russians, nor the king ofking 1 , the emperor of emperors, the czar ot czars, nor the American people can confer upon him an official place tow ering higher than his ability and his merits. Words need not be multipli ed; there is no language so expressive of his honor as his own name—Gro ver Cleveland [prolonged cheers and app’ause]. Such, JudgeJThurman, is the presence and digni y of the hour. Gentlemen, if our cuthusiasm seems great bear in mind we are in the pres ence of a heroic character. We arc beholding the sunset cd a litc that is dropping low upon the Western hori zon—going down in a splendor and magnificence that would have been too much to his honor for Napoleon or Ctesar; and now once more let me repeat the echo that comes from every hillside and cove, from ocean to ocean. "A rarer spirit never did steer hu manity. He only in general honest thought and com non good to all, made one ol them. His life was gen tle, and the elements were so mixed in him that nature might stand up and say to all the world, this is a man ; this is the noblest Roman efthem all.” [Prolonged cheers.] Mrs. Mary E- Bryan. • The following notice of this South ern authoress will be read with inter* est by her South Georgia friends: Mary E. Bryan, now editing Mon roe’s periodicals, was bora in Florida. She is a pretty woman with dark eyes and a slender figure. She talks as well as she writes. She writes rapidly and does not revise or copy. Calling upon her one night at 8 o’clock I found she had still to write twenty-seven pages of foolscap upon a continued story and have it done the next morning. The matter was ready for the press at 8 a. m. Mrs. Bryan has written murii cred itable verse, and she recites her poems with fine effect. She has written sev eral novels and one play. “Uncle Ned’s White Child” is her last book. It is full of interest, and could only have been written by one familiar with the old down south negro folk. Her first novel was written in Louisi ana with her baby in her arms. She did her cooking, washing and ironing at the time. The sale of the book brought a harvest which placed the author in competence. One who knew of the difficulties under which Mrs. Bryan has sometimes performed her literary work said of her, ‘‘She writes on a clothesline in a high wind.” lake all the rest of her southern literary sisters she lias her own home, and her pretty flat in Fourteenth street is the coterie of intellectual friends. She is chairman of literature of Sorosis, and is one of the vice pres idents of the Woman’s Press Club, of New York. How it Works. "The marriage ceremony practiced by the people of Borneo is very short and simple. Bride and groom are brought out before the assembled tribe with great solemnity and seated side by side. A betel nut is then cut in two bv the medicine woman of the tribe and one half is given to the bride and the other half to the groom. They begin to chew the nut; and then the old woman, after some sort of incanta tion, knocks their heads together and they are declared man and wife.” After the ceremony they knock each others head.

Its value is growing everyday. In style and finish it ranks with walnut and the finest on!;, and its use in ship building lias been tested on every sea. Mr. Courtenay DeKalb, who lias lately had occasion to ascend the Amazon some 1)000 miles to the head of steamboat navi gation, declares that the steamboat Las been in active service in that most trying clime tor twenty-three years. She was built in Philadelphia, the same timber is used upon her now, and she is as found as any English vessel which has been in the valley of the Amazon seven years, it Las been a tradition in tropical couutric-s that none but an English vessel would hold together under the severe tests to which the heat and moisture of such climates subject them. One reason assigned for this is that they employ terk, au East Indian wood un obtainable by Americans; blit in the face of all this exists the fact that, the oldest boat on the Amazon was built in the United States, and that, with the exception of her ir m hull, the material used in her construction was none other than Georgia pine (i'i.iifi jxilurtri*, known iu various sections ot the country as yellow, hard or long-leaved pine), which, by reason of being so heavily charged with pitdddhos been found to last three times os long as teak. This is a very important and inter esting fact, for there is probably no more trying climate in the world than that of the Amazon, and our Georgia pine can be furnished at much less cost than teak iu all countries, and probably could compete in price with it on the seashore of that country in quantities large enough to freight a vessel.—Augusta Chrouicle. Bonbons of Courtship. It is a popular fiction that a girl can marry a man without, as the say ing is, marrying his family. It is not true. Sometimes a grape does spring from a thorn, and a pure, temperate son descends from a vile, sinful father. Ilis mother’s blood, perhaps, lias sav ed hinu Still, in marrying this man you marry the soiled Atmily record, and must, to some extent, share in the suflering caused by his father’s sins. Heredity wo may or may not believe in, but we have all seen char acteristics pass one generation by, to appear in greater strength in the next. You ruu the risk thou, even if your husband is all that lie should be, of being an unhappy,auxious mother. In respect to disease and insanity the same law obtains. I am not speaking in favor of the selfish, mercenary marriage, but I am advocating the intelligent counting of the cost before the contract is signed. Parents who would lie shocked at tlicir daughter’s choosing, us an intimate friend, a girl whose antecedents they knew nothing, do not always refuse to allow that ■Slime daughter to marry a man whose family they meet for the first time at the wedding. It is otic thing to entertain an im maculately attired caller who brings bonbons i*«. otic hand and roses in the other, and quite another to sec him oil-guard with his brothers and sisters iu his environment, not the one your parents’ culture and success have giv en you.
