The linliup commenced by saying that; “There seems to be some speculation t» w hat 1, a minister, shall talk about »t a fanuer’3 fair. You would think that to me, as a teacher and minister, there would ho little interest in the work of farmers. Is not your farmer’s work at the basis of all activities and all indus tries. The same blood flows through our ' mis. w e have the same emotions- The In art-aches of the farmer's wife under fife s trials arc the same as those of tho banker s wife. So in every sphere. I build all my interest in humanity. ought to leam from each other. I like t 0 travel with men of different thought from myself. W# look at other ■ueu from our own point of view. The commercial man tees in a landscape only a money value. The artist sees in it iu l» auiy of color and form. Tho farmer kills at it from an agricultural standpoint. The broad man takes tho broadest view. A firmer ought not to bo a machine for •be cultivation of the soil. If ho is, then the farm becomes a place of bondage. The best producUof a term are character, manhood and the noble elemenU ot life, ho as a teacher, I see that a farmer may live rightly or wrongly. _ As citixens, wo may not agree as to politics, bnt wo can give oor neighbor credit of being honeet in his intentions. Wo cannot always agree m religion, hut vt can say neighbor haa aa much right to bis opin ion as I hsve to mine. Wo will sgree that every man ought to mske the most of himself.

I had my case treated by sev eral prominent physicians, but received hut liule, if any relief. 1 resorted to ill sorts of patent medicines, spending g Urge amount of money, but yet geitina no better. My attention was attracted by the cures said to have been effected by B. B. B., and I commenced taking it merely as an experiment, having but littl* faith iu the results.

Tuck’s number eleven foot played a piominent part in the piim .ry election, and a great deal of his poj ul >ri- ty was attributed to his large foot, and the peculiar swing that he gave it in making speeches. This number eleven foot brought him to gr.ef yesterday. A little boy had como up to buy ? half gallon of syrup and stopping at Dr. Lyndon’s drug store, put his bucket containing the sy rup in the door. Mr. Tuck while trying to engin eer his number eleven foot out of the door struck the toe of his shoe agains the bucket of syrup and emptied it in the street. Mr. Tuck had the damages assessed at once and paid -40 cents for the trouble his number eleven bad caused.

Washington, Sept 15.—The specid committee of the house, appointed to in vestigate charges preferred by Represen tative Kelley, of Pennsylvania, against Representative Stahlneckqr, of New York, in connection with contracting for the congressional library building, began its work in earnest this morning. Mr. Stahlnecker appeared with Judge Jere Wilson as counsel, while Mr. Kelley ap peared with Mr. Coleman, of this city, as his counsel. In opening, counsel tor the prosecution read a bill of charges against Mr. Stahlnecker. It alleges that Mr. Stahlnecker procured the appointment at the hands of Speaker Carlisle, of chair man of the house counuittie on library, for the purpose of using his position to secure the contracts for marble, stone and cement used in the construction of the congressional library. IN CONGUr.SS. Mr. Pratt’s resolution, offered in the Senate yesterday, in regard to a copper syndicate, elicited a general political dis cussion, which was chiefly significant in extorting from Republican Senators the declaration that they intended to bring in a tariff bill. Mr. Sherman said that the committee on finance would report a Republican tariff Mil designed lo pro tect and foster Ainer-can industries as against the free tradu Mills Tariff Rill, which was intended to and did weaken many of the industries of the country. The Senate then took up the Chinese exclusion bill, the pending question be ing on Mr. Blair’s motion lo re-consider the vote by which it had been passed. The vote on this motion stood—yeas 18, nays 17, no quorum voting. It was not a party division, though most of the Democrats voted for it, and most of the tepublicans against it. It was then agreed that the next vote on the motion should ho taken at one o’clock on Mon day. The Senate non-concurred in the house amendment to the Inter-State commerce bill, and passed the following: House bill providing boards of arbitra tion to settle difference-* between Inter- State railroads and their employees upon written application of either party to a controversy; providing penalties for vio lation of Quarantine regulations.

Atlanta, Sept. 13—The excitement of last night instead of abating has in creased and the democrats of Fulton county do not know who they have nominated. The executive committee met and adjourned this morning without acting as to declaring the result. The fact that candidates, contrary to tho or der of the chairman of the executive committee used carriages to carry voters to and from the polls, is the rock upon which the great democratic patty of Fulton county is split and from indica tions badly split. No one can tell when the committee will meet again as it ad journed subject to the call of tie chair man. From the present outlook there will be a regular scruiuble in November between all the candidates of yesterday and several more. Below is the result pf the so-called primary Clark Howell Willie 11.

The Ban.nek-Watch man, for tin- benefit of the youug ladies and gen tlemen who desire to thoroughly pre pare tlieineelrea for tlie profession of teachers, copies the following article from the Constitution; President William II.

Commissioner Hook to Presi dent l’uyiie, showing their moral and mental fitness for scholarships. By living on the mess plan these young teachers can seeure board at the normal school at must reasonable rates—not higher perhaps than from $6 to |8 per month. One of the four successful applicants, for Peabody scholarships has gotten up a class which will rent a cottage and live on the mess plan. The ap plicant lias, in her kindness of heart, effected this arrangement for the bes- efit of others. She, herself, of course, gets her board free, having a pay scholarship. Judge Hook said yesterday: “A splendid opportunity is now present ed to deserving young teachers in ©in state to perfect themselves in tliopro- fession of teaching at the Peal-c.dy Normal school.

Purity can not exist in anything coming from a dis gusting source. “Ammonia” has its origin in aii animal excrement; yet it is introduced for leavening purposes into Baking Powders, foisted upon the public as “abso lutely pure." Suddenly break open a hot biscuit, and quickly smell the stifling odor of ammoniacal gas arising therefrom. This is an infallible test for the “absolutely pure” baking powders, the supplementary rising poweii of which resides in the harsh and caustic chemical “Am' monia.” Dr. Price’s Cream Baking Powder is free from am monia, lime, alum and every other injurious substance, Abiscuitmade from it smells sweet, tastes sweet, and will bear the strictest scrutiny from every point of view.

To t' c Hunnicutt Rheumatic Cure Company: Gentlemeu—1 have been troub led with Bronchitis, and occasional Sore Throat, with severe Cough for a number of years past, and 1 have tried a great many oi the inosi popular remedies known to the public or the profession, some mitigating the disease more and some less. 1 was finally induced to tiy the preparation known as Hunnicutt’s Thrsat And Lung Cure,which I have used frequently ol late, and 1 find it - most excellent medicine. Indeed, I do not hesitate to say that I have derived more benefit from it than I have from any or all the other preparations. In case ot Sore Throat it is especially fine. When in tha-. condition I sip ahou! a teaspoonful at a time every hour or so, keeping the throat lubricated with it, with very satisfactory results. It has another exceller.ee in my case; It never produces nausea, but acts rather as a tonic. Very truly, Joseph E. Brown. A SAD DEATH. Saturday morning at 2 o’clock, Mr. Lee Shackleford, editor of the Oconee Enterprise, breathed his last. In his death the editorial fraternity hist one of their most valued members. Though but a young man, he had, by his sterling worth and uncompromis ing integrity,made for himself a place in the lioarts of those who knew him that will never be filled. Oconee will miss him, for no man in that county had done more to further its develop ment. Tho editors of this paper tender their sympathies to nis bereaved friends and relatives. , Mrs. Agnes B. Marshal], of London, the Miss Porloa ot England, was a recent guest at a Chicago hotel. Her school of cookery occupies two large buildings on Mortimer street, London, and last year was attended by 10,000 persons. Mrs. Marshall is a brunetto ot fine form and bearing, under middle age, with the ruddy complexion that characterizes Eng lishwomen. She is a fluent talker and speaks with a marked English accent. The queen of Spain has set her hear* upon ono enterprise, namely, that of making Saint Se bastion a favorite resort ot the fhshionable worlds of all nations as an autumn residence. A great deal of her own money is being spent for this purpose, and tho pcoplo of tho palace aro enthusiastically seconding their enter prising queen regent. Saint Sebastien is really a very charming spot, and the peo ple aro good naturedly inclined toward foreigners, especially so to English and American visitors. Sir Morell MacKenzio’s justification, which ho is preparing, will probably not bo issued to the public before October, or perhaps November. Tho book will be il- ustrated fcy various drawings, and one of the most notable things which will be tiven is a message written by Emperor Frederick, upon niB deathbed, on a slip of paper, which he handed to tho Eng lish physician. A fac-ahnile of this mes sage will appear in the book as well as on the cover. M. Dumas brought up his two daugh ters in a very strict way, never allowing them to go to balls or similar gatherings. Before her marriage Mme. Lippmann only went to one evening party and twice to tho theatre—to see tragedies. Now, she goes everywhere and is one of tho most brilliant leaders of Parisian society. She copies many of her father's manu scripts, and often criticises them to his profit. Ho hod to rewrite the first act of “Denise” twice before it suited her. She is n woman of uncommon beauty. . Queen Victoria haa reason to appreci ate tho anomalous condition of tho law of landlord and tenant In Great Britain. Her majesty leases the Abergeldlo estate from Mr. II. M. Gordon, and tho farm buildings, near the castle, where tho fa mous herd of Aberdeen-Angus cattlo is kept, are very old, in wretched order, and most inconveniently arranged. Mr. Gordon is not disposed to erect new and improved buildings, and tho queen has decided not to do so, having discov ered that the agricultural holdings act docs not entitle her to compensation if she gave up the farm, as Mr. Gordon would not bind'lumself to take over tbe buildings at a valuation on the deter mination of the tenancy. Considering, however, that tho queen has been tho tenant of Abcrgeldie for nearly forty years, and that her present lease has some seventeen years to run, it seems that it would have been profitable to build tbe much needed new steading without any condition whatever. It la clear, though, that the queen may be expected to support radical legi«lqtjon np the question. ” ' Not aa Ago ot Martyr*,. ’ • It Is exceedinglv difficult for a man to becomo a martyr for his religion in our time. Now* and then, by straining a Mint, a man almost succeeds in appear- ng in that character. Some street preach ers in London have recently made tbe attempt by obstructing tho highways and refusing at the request of the police to take their places where they would not hinder travel. But a sharp reprimand from a magistrate put an end to the martyr business. The good man who breaks a good law made far the public convenience becomes not a martyr, but a nuisance.—Christian Register. '***' Candidate* and Their Beards. . It is noticeable, apropos of tho varied fashions of wearing tho beard, that the presidential candidates of the Republican nnd Democratic parties ore each possessed of such a part of the beard as their vice presidents ' lack; for, while Harrison glories In a full supply of hirsute ap pendage, his alternate, Morton, has none; and to as Cleveland locks a goatee, Thur man wants a mustache, and the singular fact is that there are two fuff beards be tween the four men, no part missing, and each set of candidates lias a perfect beard between them.—New York Tribune.
