OUR NATIONAL CHARACTER-
Sometime ago a distinguished di
vine, who had recently traveled ex
tensively abroad and learned much of
the customs and disposition of the
German and other foreign nations,
stood on Broadway, New York, and
w ondered at the great difference he
noted in the national character of
America and the peoples ot b.urope.
Abroad he found, as a rule, content
ment, the people moving on in an
even tenor, not allowing themselves
to ho harrassed to death with care and
a wild rush after gold.
Not so in our metropolis. There
tens of thousands of anxious, care
worn people were hurrying to and
fro, all in mad pursuit of wealth. Lit
tle contentment, less quiet is visible
anywhere. The signs of last night’s
dissipation not yet removed until the
eager persuit after the almighty dol
lar begins to-day.
So it is to a greater or less extent
our country over. We dissipate too
much, we live too much for gain.
The golden eagle is too madly sought
after and, eluding our grasp, leaves
too many furrows on our national
brow, too many prematurely grizzled
and bald heads.
The secret of life is to do one’s
duty as nearly as possible and at the
same time derive the greatest possible
good and pleasure out of one’s envi
ronments. The pursuit of wealth,
tiie sacrificing of everything to gain
leads in the vast majority of cases to
disappointment and a life of sorrow.
real merits of the controversy, the
result ought not to discourage us. No
just cause is lost so long.as it has a
single earnest advocate among the
people. More than five and a half
millions of intelligent and patriotic
Americans have attested their fidelity
to the cause of revenue reform, under
circumstances well circulated to test
the sincerity of their opinions, and
they will neither desert its standard
.nor make peace with the enemy until
at least substantial justice is done.”
erly appreciate and rightly exercise
their freedom.
A SCHOOL OF TRADE-
A New York paper, after speaking
of the two millions of dollars given
l»y Girard to found a college for
orphans in Philadelphia, from which
religion and Christianity should be
exclude, adds the following very
gratifying intelligence.
“It is something of a coincidence
that another wealthy Philadelphian,
Mr. T. Y. Williamson, has just given
a sum equal to that left by the in
fidel Girard, to establish in or near
Philadelphia a Free School of Me
chanic Trades, for the practical in
struction of boys. Not, however, in
the narrow spirit of bigotry or infidel
ity does this aged philanthropist sur
round his princely gift with restric
tions such as to counteract its use
fulness. The terms of the gift pro
vide that, while no favoriteisni shall
he shown to any denomination or
creed, the moral and religious train
ing of the pupils must be carefully
regarded. It is indeed a magnificent
henefac ion, and one whose success
will stimulate the establishment of
similar schools in other Sta'es. The
hoys oi our day and our country do
not receive that careful and practical
training in their trades Which is im
parted by long apprenticeship in the
European guilds, with the result that
our workmen are often driven from
their trades tc other pursuits by the
superior skilled labor of foreign
mechanics. The thorough, practical
education of a generation of young
Americans in the mechanical trades,
combined with that native ingenuity
and originality inborn in the Yankee
hoy, would do more than years of
restrictive legislation to di-courage
the wholesale immigration of skilled
workmen, which is becoming more
and more a serious problem in our
national life.
DEMANDING REFORM-
As is well known our congressional
elections come off in November, but
the term of the encumbent "does not
expire until March 4th following.
The country may therefore always
expect a great deal of jobbery in
Congress during its session after tlie
holidays and before the 4th of March.
This is due to the fact that a great
many congressmen who are now mak
ing laws have been retired by their
constituency and therefore feel res
ponsible to no one for their action.
This is the season when the notorious
hack salary job was committed, and
until the law is changed the country
will continue to be shockod by unwise
and vicious legislation.
No representative should make laws
after the expiration of his term of
office. The time of election or of the
session of Congress should be »o
changed as that a representative’s
term of office shall expire after the
fall elections. In the rush and con
fusion of the next two months a great
deal of injurious legislation will be
pushed through as it will not he hard
to get men, who have not been re
elected, to vote for any measure
which satisfies their interests or cu
pidity. Not only so but much of the
most important legislation of the
whole session comes up now and
many bills introduced between this
and March 4tli will he carried over
until next December, so that a rep
resentative really has a voice in our
national law making fully twelve
months after he has been reti-ed and
therefore declared uufit to represent
his district.
The experiments with steam, as a
heater as substitute for the stove in

car stove must go.
It seems as if the loan associations
have determined to meet the law as
laid down in Judge Speer’s decission,
and will hereafter ask but the legal

The yearly income of the great

League of Boston. As the Speaker
of the House and perhaps the strong

lisle’s words are well worth reading.
Says he:
“The result of the contest in which
we ore engaged is not in the least
doubtful, and unless the evils of
which we complain are removed,which
seems not at all .probable, the agita
tion should go right on with increased
vigor aud force until the public judg

justify or condone them. Nothing
has yet occurred to weaken our faith
in the justice of our cause or to abate

creasing every day and it is becoming
a very important article of trade. On
the subject of Georgia pine and the
methods by which it is proposed to

The organization of the Southern
Pine Company, which is‘ to he the
executor’s agent of the Southern Pine
Exchange, is believed to be the begin

the entire pine lumber interests of
the South. The organization so far

J udge Samuel F. Rice, of the Su

as a fitting southern republican for a

able lawyer without auy very binding
political ties.
The war of races doesn’t seem to
be confined to any particular section
of the country. The fierce conflicts
between the whites and the blacks
down South have now found their
counterpart in the usually peaceful
city of Philadelphia, where a band of
white hoys attack a band of black
boys, and the 12-year-old leader of the
colored crowd shoots the leader of the
white boys through the lung.
The delusion that our tariff protects
labor and increases its wages, is fast
giving place to facts. Supply and
demand regulate the wages of labor
and whenever the demand shows any
decided increase northern manufac
turers import foreign paupers by the
thousand. The tariff however keeps
out foreign goods so that it is the
capitalist and not tlie poor unprotect
ed laborer that derives the benefit from
the onerous tariff.
About one-half the iro i from the

ATTESTED POPULARITY.
There has been recently a good
deal of discussion as to the relative
value of the various Blood Purifiers
on the market. As only articles of
genuine merit can hold the good will
of the public and be steadily in demand
it would he an easy matter to investi
gate and determine which one was
in the lead. A reporter of the Ban-
nek-WatchmaN called yesterday on
the various druggists of this city to
ascertain which remedy of the large
number advertised had the largest
sale.
Mr. Leon D. Sledge of the firm of
Wade and Sledge was first called on.
He said:’ “We manufacture a blood
remedy of our own which we of course
push, outside of this the B. B. B. (Bo
tanic Blood Balm),manufactured in At
lanta, is perhaps the most called for.
It certainly falls behind none, so far
as sales and general satisfaction are
concerned.”
Dr. John Crawford was next inter
viewed by the reporter. The Dr. said:
’’Botanic Blood Balm is certainly the
most popular remedy of the kind we
handle. Its sale for the past two
years has been largely in excess of
any other remedy of the kind on the
market.”
Messrs. R. T. Brumby & Co., the
College avenue druggists, were then
seen. They said: ”We sell more
B.B.B.than any other two preparations
for the blood we have ever placed on
our shelves.
It is a great favorite with onr cus
tomers and always gives perfect sat
isfaction.”
This last interview completed the
reporter’s task and he returned to his
desk satisfied of the wide popularity of
B. 1>. B. The druggists were unani
mous in their praise of this truly
great remedy. There are a number of
persons in Athens who have been per
manently cured by this preparation, of
terrible blood diseases. A few experi
ence talks would not he amiss in this
article. Mr. James A. Greer, a gen -
tleman well known in this city, says.
”1 am first cousin of the late Alex-
H. Stephens and have been postal
clerk on different railroads since 1868
For ten years I have been a sufferer
from a cancer on my face, which
grew worse until the discharge of mat
ter bee lU'-e profuse and very offen
sive. I became thoroughly disgusted
with blood purifiers and pronounced
them humbugs, as I had tried many
without relief. Finally I was induced
to use Botanic Blood Balm, (B. B. B.)
The offensive discharge decreased at
once and the hardness disappeared. It
became less in size until nothing re
mained hut a scar. I gained flesh
and strength, as all who have seen
mo bear testimony and I cannot say
too much in its praise.”
Another Athens gen-leman,Mr.R.R.
Saulter found it to be a success. He
wrote: “I have been afflicted with
Catarrh for many years, although
tried all sorts of medicines and
several doctors did their best
to cure me. My blood was
very impure and nothing ever had
any effect upon the disease until I
used that great Blood Remedy known
as B. B. II., a few bottles of which ef
fected an entire cure. I recommend it
to any who have .Catarrh.”
These testimonials are given mere
ly as a sample, a page of similar ones
could be easily secured. One thing
is certain,this sovereign remedy is the
great favorite with our people.
They have tried it and know that
everything claimed for it by the man

TO HIS COLORED FRIEND.
A LETTER FRO.TI MR. JEFFERSON
DAVIS.'
Raleioh.N. C., Jan. 2.—Some weeks,
ago James A. Jones, colored,of this city
who was Jefferson Davis s body servant
while the latter was president, wrote
him a letter expressive of his high re
gard. Jones stated that he had not seen
the ex-president since both were taken
to Fortress Monroe. Jones was captur
ed with him in Georgia, and made great
efforts to secure his escape there. Mr.
Davis makes special mention of him in
his history. Jones has made partic
ular denial of the story
that Davis was attired in
women’s clothing when captured Since
the war Jones has lived here. He is a
republican in politics, and has for eigh
teen years been an alderman. His love
for Mr. Davis amounts to devotion.
Today be received the following
autograph letter from Mr. Davis, dated.
“BEAVouH,Miss., December 27—I was
very glad to receive your letter, with its
assurance of kind remembrance, and it
gives pleasure not^only to me but also to
my daughter, who was an infant when
you last saw her. Mrs Davis, you know,
was always your particular friend. We
have all rejoiced at your honorable pros
perity and have felt that it was what
was due to your integrity and fidelity.
The many years that have come and gone
since we parted has in no way diminish
ed my regard for you and interest in
your welfare, and on Christmas Day
I mailed to you the last photograph tak
en of me in order that you might see me
as I now am.
Wilh the best wishes of mysolf, Mrs.
Davis and all the household, I am truly
your friend,
Jkfp Davis.
A SPEECH WORTH READING-
r p-eseatative Amos J. Cummings rnd the
British Don.
Mr.Cummings—Mr. Speaker, I ask
this House to assume that the clerk
has just read Victor Hugo’s descrip
tion of the devil fish in the “Toilers
of the Sea.” Assuming that this has
been done, sir, and that the House
has the matter now in mind let me
say that England is the gigantic devil
fish of the -nineteenth century.
[Laughter anl applause ] Its body
rests in the bed of the North Sea, its
tentacles reach over the face of. the
earth, and the monster is sucking the
blood of all nations. One of its nu
merous arms extends along the Med
iterranean, with suction cups at Gi
braltar, Malta and Cyprus. It holds
the commercial supremacy of that im*
mense inland sea.
A second tentacle runs down the
red sea; with suction staions at Al
exandria, Suakim, the Straits of Bab-
el-Mandelb, and Secotro, tlius controll
ing that greatest of commercial arte
ries, the Suez Canal, and its approach
es. The life-blood of India has been
drained, and Burmah is gasping un
der the suction of this rapacious octa-
pus. The Maylay and the Yellow
Seas are virtually Briiish waters.The
monster has fastened its fingers upon
every continent. It has in its grasp
Cape Colony, in Africa; Guiana in
South America, and the whole Aus
tralian continent. New Zealand and
other islands on the Pacific are in its
power.
Ireland is struggling mantully to
free herself from its tentacle, and the
Boers of the Transvaal have torn them
selves from the grip. St. Helena, the
Bermudas and other islands of the
Atlantic still feed its body. A nest
of blistering cups in the West Indies
dominates the commerce of the Carri-
bean Sea. A cup at Belize is a suck
er on the commercial life of the Gulf
of Mexico. The tentacles of the mon
ster are even now gliding over the
face of our sister republic of Vene
zuela in an effort to rob her of her
rich gold fields and to secure the
mouths of the Orinoco.
But the greate-t of her tentacles was
fastened on the North American Con
tinent. Its srip was loosened by the
American Revolution. Yet it retains
its hold upon nearly half of the conti-
nent.lt has slimed and is still sliming
the American nation. Four times in
til's century have its poisonous fingers
touched the heart of the American
people. The first tentacle was lopped
off in the war of 1812. The sec
ond tore away part of our northeastern
boundary, and the third ripped an
empire and an inland sea from our
boundary on the northwest. The
fourth is fastened upon us in an at
tempt to rob us of our natural rights
on the ocean. Rights are claimed
for Canadians in American waters
whielx they are not willing to grant
Ameiicans in Canadian waters.
Meantime every artery of our foreign
trade is being drained by this colos
sal devil fish. On the Atlantic and on
the Pacific its supremacy is unques
tioned. Within thirty years it has
robbed us of nearly the last vestige of
our foreign commerce. We are chill
ed by contact with the body of this
monstrosity, and we are environed by
its network of tentacles and suction
cups. [Applause.]
Sir, the time has come for the
United States to again declare itself
free and independent of England.
We are dependent upon no nation on
the face of the earth. The assump
tion that either England or her colo
nies have maritime rights superior to
those of any other nation is not to be
Dased on the treaty oi 1818 or upon
any other treaty. It is based upon
the cheek of a national bunco thief
and upon the nerve of a rapacious
robber. [Laughter and applause.]
Let us act promptly. Let party
politics no longer polute the pa
triotic fervor arousd by the retaliatory
message of the President. A plague
on both your houses. The people
are up in their might- Let both po
etical parties unite in strengthening
the hands of a patriotic Executive and
in filling the demands of a great and
justly indignant nation. Give the
President power to lop off an arm of
this devil fish. Let him seize this ojt-
portunity to hamstring the British
I on, and as the measly skinned beast
drags its hind leg over the hot sand
in weary retreat all the nations of the
earth will clap their hands and roar
with applause. [Laughter and ap
plause.]
