THORNS AND THISTLES. “Do men gather grapes of thorn, or flgs of thistles'?” A poor and sged inebriate Whose sun is setting fast, Thinjy clad bis palsied limbs Though fierce the wintry blast; Out in toe night without a home, Shrilly the keen wind whistles— Me n never gather grapes from thorns, Nor ever llgs from tbis les. No doubt this freezing, starving wretch Was once a handsome boy, And d itit g parents counted him Their chief and brightest ioy* But heestrayed from vitjtny'&paths, Desp’te words-e.r.d epistles— Men never gather grapes from thorns, Nor ever tigs from thistles. His harvest past! his summer gone? He gropes amid the gloom That gathers from that horrid place— The wretched drunkard’s tomb. A deadly poison permeates >. Hie very bones and gristles— Mon never gather grape3 from tborne, . Nor ever figs from thistles. Foredoomed thou goest to the bar Of tby oBended God. Thy poor, sin-blasted form shall rest Beneath dishonored scd. In vain thou strugglest with the tide, Hoiror thy grey hair bristles— Thou canst not gather grapes and figs, Who sowed but thorns and thistles. No marble slab by loving friends Will e’er be raised for thee; No band for thee will ever plant The weeping willow tree, No mourner’s tear for thee is shed, The wind thy requiem whistles; No llower wave above thv head— Nothing hut thorns and thistles. KEEP ON DRINKING. If you wish to he always thirsty, start an appetite for drink, the oftener you driuk the oftener you waat to. If you are determined to he poor, keep on drinking, and you will he rag ged and peneiless to your heart’s con- ~ tent. If you wish to starve your family, keep on drinking, and (hen you will consume the means of their support. If you would be imposed upon by knaves, keep on your visits to the sa loons, for they will make their task easy. If you are resolved to kill yourself, keep on drinking and you will hit on a sure mode of self-destruction. If you will expose both your folly and your secret*, keep on drinking; they will run out as the liquor runs in. If you think you are strong, keep on drinking, and you will find yourself subdued by so powerful on enemy. I f you will be a pest in society, keep on drinking, and society will avoid you as an infection. If you would smash 'rindows, break the peace, get your bones broken, tum ble uuder your horses i nd carts and be put in the lock-up, keep on drinking, ami it will be strange it you don’t suc ceed.

Think as little as possible about any good in yourself; turn your eyes resolutely from any view of your acquirements, your influ ence, y.>ur plan, your success, your follow ing—above all, speak as little as possible about yourself- The inordinatem ss of our self-love makes spctcli about ourselvts like the putting of a lighted torch to the dry wood which has been laid jj>. order for burning. NoJJrtBg-bflTduly should open our lioa^ffSoaibis dangerous theme, ex- pt it he in humble confession of our sin- fuiuess belore God. Again, be specially on the watch against those little tricks by which the vain man s.eksto bring round the conversation to himself, and gain the piaise or notice which his thirsty ears drink in eogreedny. Even if praise comes unsought, it is well, while men are uttering it, to guaid your self by thinking of some secret cause for humbling yourself inwstdiy to God, think ing uuto what these pleasant accents would, be changed if all that is known to God, and even to yourself, aloud revealed to tram Place yourself often beneath the cross ol Calvary; see that sight «>f love and sorrow; hear those wordaot wonder; look at the Eternal Son bumbling himself there for you, and ask yourself, as you goze fixedly on him, whether he, whose only hope is in that ct oss of absolute self-sacrifice and self-(basement, can dare to cherish in him- «elf one suit-complacent action.

STRONGER LIQUORS. We observe that some of our contem poraries in treating of the temperance question are laying special emphasis on the evils wrought by distilled liquors, They speak of th? annihilation of the ‘‘traffic in distilled'liqurrs,” as an end greatly to be desired, leaving us to in fer of course, that the traffic in wines and malt liquors mac be allowed to go on as before, not being specially harm ful. It is too late in Hie day of reform to talk about a union of effort in tern perance work based on any such weak and fot licit itieory as this. In itteory there is considerable differ ed between the results of drinking islilled liquors and drinking beer ana butin practice there is none. The laws of many state* make a dis tinction between saloons licensed to sell distilled liquors and saloons licensed to Sell wine and beer only, but who that knows any thing about the saloon busi ness does not know that this distinction is the merest and thinnest pretence. The liquor stores sell beer and the beer shops sell liquor, and they are all one and the same in their character and re sults. The Idea that, beer is a comparitivelv harmless drink has long since heeit abandoned by all intelligent, earnest, and genuine temperance men. Beer is now the drink of the m tsses in this country as well as in Germany, and we believe that it is doing more today to impoverish, debauch, and ruin the peo ple than all other intoxicating drinks combined. Beer is an unwholesome, d i seasc-breed i ng, brai n -destroy ing dring, and any proposed reform move ment that overlooks it or attempts to discriminate in its favor might as well stop before it begins.—[The Christain at Work. ATRIGEDY. To be sure it is a fearfully common one, yet none the less mournful for all that. A human life has just closed in our community—a life reaching near three score and cen years—all worse than wasted. A man of gne intellect, of generous impulses, belonging to one of our best families, has lived and died, causing only sorrow and regret to those w o loved him. A lonely out cast, and he might have been a noble man, loved and blessed by all. In his father’s house, sipping the wine left in glasses by his father’s gnest, he first learned the power of the “mock er.” In the deacon’s distillery he was given the whiskey which, the work men said, ‘ made the bright little fel low too droll and funny for anything.” In the saloons, licensed by law, the education went on, and now, after a life of shame, the dying hour has come — and after death the judgement. The deacon turned from bis evil way too late for his victim, but the sa loons continue their work of death. — ■ i i It has been conjectured that the se cret of antediluvian longevity was some method of keeping the blood pure, warm, and vigorous. Moderns accom plish the same purpose by using Ayer’s Sarsaparilla—the best blood medicine ever brought to light. Most of the books in our libraries are dead books. Our text-books in science, all our text-books have to he revised every five years. An old edition is worthless, is misleading ; to the paper-makers with it What we regarded as fixed principles in political economy, which we learned ol Adam Smith or John Stuart Mill, and sup posed to be settled, are now ail reversed 01 all modified. Sciences, arts, cbuuge.— There is notbing so worthless as an old encyclopedia. It needs an appendix every year. Even iu the latest ‘‘Britannicn,” il we look up » word like “Australia” in the early volumes of nearly twenty years ago, we are only misled. The book is dead, and the living world has left it behind. What is it that gives this one Book its vital power? Wherein does it differ irom ibeotber dead bonks and living books, u«.i one of which has ever bad any life that can compare with tbis? Partly tbis, that il is the world’s om great book of duty. Facts perish or ciiange. duty remains, it is the one book not loi ibe intelligence but lor the conscience, li informs uswbout what we owe to God and wbut we owe to one another. Now tba> is something that does not glow old. The life of the Bible is iu its appeal to the heart, not to the teasoD; in its demands oQ Ibe conscience, not in its instruction ol 'the intelligence, its histories or its geneal ogies. Because the Bibie has told uswlia 1 the world most warns to know, what i> right, what is wiong, what is duty, what i.- sin, what we must do to be saved, there fore every year adds to it more vigor, mou lif.-, more influence in the world. But we must mention one other reason why the Bible exbibiis a file other and greater Ilian any other hook of authority. Not only does the duty it diclares tell mat he must, but this book speaks with thi voice of God. God speaks in it. Iu ii God reveals himself, speak9 to us, tells us, with all his infinite auihoriiy, what w< must do, gives bis own inspiration to bis Book, fids it with himself, so that when the Book speaks to us, God himselt speaks to us. Here is the great distinction be tween this and alt other books. Otbei books speak muo’s word, a good or wiae man’s word, perhaps, to us, and ask om judgment on them. This book comes Irom God aud asks not cur judgment, but com mands our obedience. BOY* AT PARilES.

There are many people who seem to en tertain the idea that all the education which Christians obtain is simply for ust in this wotld, and that wLen iltey die, it is mostly left behind them. But this is evi dently a mistake. It is doubtless true thai quite a good deal of Ihe knowledge which Christians obtain is of nouseiu heaven, either to them or to any one else. But th< effects of all good education which a be liever receives in this world will doubtles- be felt and enjoyed hy himself snd others in the b< avenly world. A good salutary education enlarges one’s mental and spir itual powers, and thus fits him to appre ciate what be otherwise could not. It is not a mere speculation to suppose that a thoroughly educated Christian, when be comes to enter beuven, will appreciate its b. auties and treasures, and God and Chtisi much more than one whose education is very limited. We may say that a Chris tian, who has made a special and devout study of the Bible for forty or fifty years, will have a finer and clearer apprehension of the thoughts and the things which make heaven what it is, than one whose religious education is confined to the merest rudi ments of divine revelation. SECRET OF A HAPPY HOME. 1 have peeped intoquiet ‘ parlots” where the carpet is clean and not old, and the furniture polished and br.ght.mto ‘ rooms’ where the chairs are neat aud the flo .r carpetless, into ••kitchens” where the fam ily live and the meals are cooked and eaten and the boys and girls are as blithe as the sparrows in the thatch overhead; aud I see that it is not so much wealth and learning, nor clothing, nor servants, nor toil, nor town nor cour.t»y, nor station, as tone and temper that render homes happy or wtetci - ed. And I see, too, that iu town or coun try good sense and God’s grace make life what no teachers or accomplishments, no means or society, can make it—the open ing stave of an everlastii g p-alm, ti e fair beginning of an end'jits existence,the good ly, modest, well-proportioned vestibule to a temple of God’s building that shall never decay, wax old, or vanish away.— Dr. John Hall.

THEY STOLE CHICKENS, But Were Bagged Friday Night by a posse - Stealing chickens is getting to be the greatest nuisance tbis section of the country is subjected to, but our citizens are deter joined to break up the nefarious practice. The thieves seem to be well or ganized, and are hard to detect, hut Friday night Messrs. Henry Sims, Wi 1 Lester and Frank McLeroy got in some go>>d work While the rain was fall ing in torrents they slipped up on ade a of negroes engaged in thej business at their rendezvous which is located im mediately in .the resr of Mount Zion church, just beyond the city limits. George Sheats made a held dash for liberty. He is doubtless the leader of the band. Several shots were fired at him as he ran, none of which seemingly to^k effect. Will Sheats, NanoySheats, and Will Prior Sheats were arrested, and are now in Clarke county jail. For some time this band have been camping after the manner of Gypsies, making chicken stealing their profession, and they wiU be called to account for this mode of living. They would appropriate nnytbiBg that wa- convenient when toey were on the r raids and their arrest was made none too soon. It is believed that Geo. Sheats, who escaped is wounded, and this will probably lead to bis arrest. JACK THE RIPPER. He is Caught at Last and Confessed the Crimes. Melbourne, March 26.—Considerable excitement is caused here by the state ment published by the Argus which de clared Demming, the murderer, had made a confession. There has been strong suspicion en tertained here and in England that Demoting is none other than the notori' ous "Jack the Ripper, ” the slayer of the Whitechapel, London, outcasts, and this suspicion iB borne out in a measure not only bj’ Demming’s appearance, which closely tallies with the descrip tion given of the Whitechapel fiend, but by his alleged confession. The Argns is a reliable newspaper, and there is no reason to doubt the truthfulness of the statement it makes that Demming has acknowledged that he killed his wife and four children at Dinham; at Rain Hill, near Liverpool, that he murdered and mutilated the last two women, whose bodies were found in the purlins of While chapel although he has confessed that these two White chapel women fell victims to his mauia for murder, while not denying, does not admit that he killed the other White chapel women whose murders at the time attracted the attention of the whole world. It is believed, however, that when he finds all hope of escape from the clutch es of the law cut off, he will confess not only to these mnnlers, hut others of which the police know nothing. In his confession, The Argus says Demming makes no mention of his ob ject of mutilating the bodies of his White Chapel victims and removing certain of the organs; hut, it adds, there is scarcely a doubt that the man is i fflieted with a disease similar in some respects to nymphomania. Russell Harrison u Journalist. Washington, March 26.—Russell B. Harrison, the son of the president, was formally admitted to the press galleries of the two houses by the press commit tee as the Washington correspondent of The Journal, his paper at Helena, Mont. Thereupon a score of the news paper men euti.led to admission to the gallery signed a request to the press committee to reconsider the action ta ken. No ground was given, but it is sup posed that the Protestauts object on the ground that Harrison is an agent or or representative of persons or corpora tions having legislation before congress, or that his chief attention is not given to newspaper correspondence, although he certified under the rules iu writing to the contrary in each case. His ad' mission will most probably stand. Of Go: MR. T- M. HALL Highest of all in Leavening Power.—Latest U. S. Gov’t Report WdA 8**“* G/sQ/j en, Oconee County Pay? the Banner a Visit.
