Tho Instructs Not till we moot with Love in,u ..£sl In all his solemn majesty nnd worth, Can we translate the meaning of life's t3uty, Which God oft writes in cipher at our birth; Not till Love comes in all his strength and ter ror Can we read others' hearts, not till then know A wide compassion for all human error Or sound the quivering depths of mortal woe. Not till we sail with him o’er stormy oceans Have wo seen tempests. Hidden in his hand Ho holds tho keys to all the great emotions. Till he unlocks them none can understand. Not till we walk with him on lofty mountains Can we quite measure heights. And, oh, sad truth, When once we drink from his immortal foun tains Wo bid farewell to tho light heart of youth! Thereafter our most perfect day will borrow' A dimming shadow from some dreaded night. Bo great grows joy it merges into sorrow', And evermore pain tinctures our delight. —Ella Wheeler Wilcox. Waiting For the liugle. We wait for the bugle. The night dews are cold ; The limbs of the soldiers feel jaded and old; The field of our bivouac is windy nnd bare; There is lead !n our joints; there is frost in our hair; The future is veiled and its fortune unknown As we lie with hushed breath till the bugle is blown. At the sound of the bugle each comrade shall spring Like an arrow released from the strain of the string. The courage, the impulse, of youth shall come back To banish the chill of the drear bivouac, And sorrows and losses and cares fade away When that life giving signal proclaims the new day. Though the bivouac of age may put ice in our veins. And no fiber of steel in our sinew remains; Though the comrades of yesterday's march are not here. And the sunlight seems pale, and the branches are sear; Though the sound of our cheeriug dies down to a moan, Wo shall find our lost youth when the bugle is blown. —T. W. Higginpon in Atlantic Monthly. A Clever Trick. It certainly looks like it, hut there is really no tncic about it. Aanybody can try it who has Lame Back and weak kidneys, Malaria or nervous troubles.

Populists (Hutting Their Party on Ac count 01 Radical Fusion. Brunswick. Ga., Sept. 12—Con gressman Brantley returned to-night from a two days’ trip through the dis trict. lie spoke at Jesup and Black shear aad reports a most flattering re ception. “The Democrats are becoming aroused,” said lie, “and I notice that the populists are having their eyes opened to the shameless trafficking of their votes with the Republicans. You can look for a sweeping Demo cratic victory in both the October and November elections. The voters will not submit to the infamous trading that has been going on. The Popu lists are for the most part honest in their political convictions, and they consider it an insult to be asked to cast principle aside and vote for a Re publican, whose platform represents everything that is opposed to the Pop ulistic belief. Many of the Populists are coming back to the Democratic party and the November victory will be complete.” JOSEPH A.

A Fleshy Consumptive Did you ever see one ? Did you ever hear of one ? Most certainly not. Con sumption is a disease that invariably causes loss of flesh. If you are light in weight, even if your cough is only a slight one, you should certainly take Scott’s Entuslion of cod liver oil <wilh hypo phosphites. No remedy is such a perfect prevent ive to consumption. Just the moment your throat begins to weaken and you find you are losing flesh, you should begin to take it. And no other remedy has cured so many cases of consumption. Unless you are far advanced with this disease, Scott’s Emul ,sion will hold every in ducement to you for a perfect cure.

Mr. .Vickers was the unanimous choice of the democrats, and a largo number of populists will vote for him, thus making his election sure. He is a good man and a Christian. And you will never see him pouring mean whiskey down a man to got bis vote. Mr. Vickers is a member of one of the largest families in the county, and is a man of ripe experience, which makes him a good man for the place. J. A. DAUGHTREY. Tuis gentleman was brought out by the people for Sheriff, He is well known in the county, and will make, a vigilant and thoroughly competent officer. Mr. Daughtrey served the county as jailor once, and it can be said to his credit that not a single prhoner escap ed during his term of office. MELVIN TANNER.

There is not a better man in the country; he is competent, faithful and deserv ing, and the people will make no mis take in electing him to the office of Tax Collector. HENRY C. GIRTMAN. One of the best things the nominat ing convention did was to put Henry Girtman on the ticket. He is the nominee for Tax Receiver, and it is safe to say he will be elected by a big majority. He is from- the good old precinct of PicKren, and is now one ol the most active members of the Board of Education. JAMES GILLIS. He is the nominee for Surveyor. Ho is a good old farmer and has had experience in the office of Surveyor, having served Coffee and Ware in this capacity several years ago. GEO. M. BICKETSON.

WILKINSON IN A HOLE. *, He Says He Prefers Negro Rule in the South to Free Silver. Brunswick, Ga , Sept. 10—In a speech to the Democrats of Coffee county, made on Monday last at Doug las Hon. Robert G, Dickerson, the Democratic candidate for state sena tor from that district, made, among some other statements, the direct ch trge that, in a private letter, Re publican candidate for Congress, Wil kinson, had staled that lie “would prefer to see negroes in office than to see HL-er men gain a victory in that e!e< t'< n ” The making of this charge came in the nature of a bombdieff to the Populists of Coffee when it l>< came known amongst them.

Charles Selph, an overseer 011 Jesse Paulk’s place, seveu miles north of Tilton, in Irwin county, came to Tiftou last weeic and employed a wagon load of negroes to pick cotton foi him.

Also when they had finished his cotton, lie coni [idled them to pick that of his neighbors, guarding them while at wont his rifle and guarding them at night.
