WEDNESDAY, MARCH 80, 1887.
It is reported that Dr. Joseph Par
leer, of Loudon, will be called to suc¬
ceed Henry Ward Beecher.
The United States Supremo Court
has decided that a State has no au¬
thority to tax drummers from another
State.
Sleet and snow storms in the north
fiftvo done great damage during the
past week. Our friends in the north
aud west will begin to appreciate the
•unity south in a few years.
Mrs. Tipton, the wlte of the man
killod by Joseph M. Weaver, his ac¬
complice In the attempted robbery of
©Id man Perry, near Dublin, has
confessed that sho made the disguises
for her husbaud and Weaver, with a
knowledge of the purposo to which
they were to bo put. Sho says the
robbery was planned by Seaborn
Weaver, father of Joseph Weaver.
The Darien Gazette claims that
although tho channel across Doboy
bar marked out by the United Statos
survey has for many years beou grad¬
ually tilling up, nature has all that
time been washing out another, and
now by the new route, with very lit¬
tle engineering work, vessel# drawing
twenty-two feet of water can come
up to the city.
The United Staters Treasurer has
given notice that he will redeem
trade dollars, dollar for dollar, upon
application to him before August
next. Tho government can well af¬
ford to do this, for there is more sil¬
ver in tho trade dollar than in tho
standard. It is a shame, though,that
the government should have waited
until the pcoplo should have been
ahaved fifteen cents on the dollar by
tho brokers before doing this act of
justice.
We Heve^rcceivcd a copy of tho San
Francisco, (Cal.) Daily Ucport, of a
late date, and find in It a lengthy lea
dor advocating lion. Wnt. T. Cole¬
man, of that State, for the Presidency
of tho United States in 1888. This
gentleman was first mentioned in this
connection by the Now York Sun, and
since then his name has boon heralded
from Maine to the Paclfilc Slope.
Mr. Coleman seems to be a gentleman
qualified In every way for the high
position in questiou and should he en¬
ter actively into the race of 1888, he
doubtless will make it lively fer his
opponent. Tho far west has strong
claims in putting. Curtis ft Presidential
candidate.
THE INTER-STATE COMMERCE BILL
This bill, recently passed by Con¬
gress, will go into effect after the first
of April next. By it, tho rates of all
pasteuger and freight trains in the
Union arc to bo made uniform, and
the President has perfected his selec¬
tion ot the Inter-State Hallway Com¬
mission, composed of Thos. M. Cooley,
©f Michigan ; W. It. Morrison, of Illi
nsis; Augustus Schoenmakcr, of New
York; A. F. Walker, of Vermont;
Walter L. Bragg, of Alabama. These
gentlemen will serve for terms of six
to two years respectively, as their
names are mentioned.
Each of these gentlemen are lawyers
of ability, and havo served with dis¬
tinction tn various political offices
heretofore.
GEORGIA'S SHARE.
Atlanta Constitution, 27th.
Under a reeeiit act of congress there
was appropriated the sum of $400,000
annually, to be distributed among the
several states of tho union, for the
purpose of providing arms, ordnance
stores, quartermasters’ stores and camp
equipage for the militia. This sum is
to be divided among the s ta tes in pro¬
portion to the number of senators and
representatives in congress, no state
to have any portion of this sum unless
it has at least i00>ool»tte£ militiamen
for each senator and representative.
Yesterday afternoon Adjutant-General
Kell received from General Drum,
adjutant-general of the United States
army, V communication asking for a
detailed account for the militia com¬
panies of Georgia, for the purpose of
tarrying out the provisions of this act.
A detailed statement will be sent in a
lew days. As there are about 3^)00
members of the militia companies of
Georgia, this state will coiue iu for a
•bare of the appropriation.
THE HERMIT
or THE
AUCHEE-HATCHEE.
•y “qfbiNcr.”
[We arc kindly permitted by the
author to publish the advance sheets
of the following original local story,
written for the South Georgia Immi¬
grant:—hi*.]
Tho topography of the pine-belt ot
Georgia Is a wonder of sameness sur¬
passed only by the sea. The same un¬
dulating table-land, a half mile of
smooth pine ridge, and then a gentlo
depression, perhaps a rivulet or a
branch, and then again the same, tow-<
ermg pines, all alike; fallen trees
blackened by fire, lightwood knots—
twins in every fcaturo.
Th« want of individuality defies
differentiation, and the exercise of the
faculty of locality h at a minimum.—
How much more incapable were our
powers ot discrimination with the
faculties so confused. Now it was
dark. Only a starlit sky favored
us, and we trudged on two more hours.
The 6ainc waste of wiregrass, the same
white mounds of the salamander, the
same dirge of the zephyrs in the pines.
Science had proved recreant, pluck
was growing tame, hope was deferred
and the heart was nearly sick, when
an object on the ground just ahead of
us attracted our attention. We touched
it with our feet; it looked like paper; it
was indeed,aud a newspaper. This was
a sign of civilization—somebody had
been there before us. If we only
had a match, but we were neither of
us smokers. Oh! if there were a
smoker in the party wo might get a
match and see the namo of the owner.
During the day I had picked up some
exquisite specimens of Indian arrow
heads; they abound there, and show
how truly that once upon these lands
tho Red man trod his native heather.
With one of these I struck the blade of
my pocket knife, and by the flash the
quick eye of the Professor saw the
front page of tho New York Herald.—
Blank astonishment was followed by
a painful pause. It was the paper
that wrapped our lunch. Redmond
broke the silence. Here science and
philosophy attest a painful fact. For
two mortal hours we have march¬
ed in a straight line, as we thought,
opposite tho way we were heading at
dark, when in reality wo have been
moving in a circle. This is the paper
that held our lunch ; this is the spot
where we dinod, and we are just
where wc started.
WHY LOST PERSONS ALWAYS CIRCLE.
“Ijost persons,” said Redmond, “al¬
ways go around and around. If the
human anatomy were perfectly sym¬
metrical, tliis would not be the case.
The asymmetry of our development
results in an imperceptible advantage
to one step—generally, the right step
being a little longer than the left.—
When darkness, or the absence of fa¬
miliar objects prevents us from know¬
ing our reckoning, and continually
correcting this tendency, there is a
gcutlo deflection to the left. If the
muscles on both sides were ot even
sizo aud strength, wo would always
move in a straight line in the night,
and without known marks to guide
us.”
“Poor consolation,” T replied. “If
we are to describe this circuit again
and again, we might as well sit down
on one of these logs and count the
stars till daylight.” Theory good or
bad, certainly the practice that follow¬
ed was a miserable failure, and while
we parleyed and suggested, for ray
part there was a feeling of intenso
hopelessness creeping over me. Cer¬
tainly the weather was not so inclem¬
ent that we could not, without any
great risk, spend a night in the woods;
but nevertheless the prospect was
cheerless enough.
Reader, you who have seen real life,
have you uot ever and anon been placed
in & like situation—when self-confi¬
dence and dependence broke com¬
pletely down; and, as I did then, have
you not felt an unutterable sort of ao
pealing to some source of illimitable
power? You did not get on your
knees and call any uamc, but you iiave,
as I did, so yearningly wished for
some fortuitous intervention that
might bring you out of your dilem¬
ma ; and hasn’t succor come, as it
were, accidentally—a mere happen
so, but just what your' extremity
needed. It Is not necessary that you
should be a religionist, or in fellow¬
ship with any visible organization to
own aud recognize that “ there is a
divinity that shapes our ends.” And
whodoesnot, who is human and in¬
telligent, foei a source of gratitude
welling up in his soul whon his wish
isahswered, and—to whom?
“Ilark! what is that?” exclaimed
Redmond, and he assumed the alti¬
tude of one who listens intensely.
“There it is again—the baying of a
dog!”
“Yes,” I replied; “and his bark has
the peculiar inflection of a dog at
home. Again! here it is to onr right.
Let’s go that way.”
A shiver of joyous feeling swept
ovrr me at the thought of our possi¬
ble good luck, and it was all I could
do to repress a whoop. The barking
stopped, aiul so did we, and listened
again and again. Now we hsfir it
again*, aad clearer,more unmistakable
than ever.
“ Bless the dog t” exclaimed the Pro
fesaor; “and there Is n ray of light.”
We quickened our ateps.
“Ah! what is this—a.path ?”
“A path,” said I, “assurelv as the
stars look down upon us, aud leading
right away to the light. And what is
this? It looks quite swamp-like, and
wt shall soon be into it, if no way
opens up.*
“Ah, Quincy! here is a log, and
there is water beyond. Is it possible,
after all our mishaps, we are about
to anchor at the threshold of the her¬
mit’s home?”
“The plot thickens,” I said; “ let ns
cross. Steady yourself, Professor, with
your staff; that water may baye
depth.”
Fifty leet of this natural bridge
passed, and we could see at the termi¬
nation ot the path, a cabin. The bark¬
ing of the dog was now furious. Then,
as we drew nearer with cautious step,
we could make out the outlines of an
old man leaning upon a staff, and
heard in a creaky, huskv voice—
“Who Is that?”
“Friends and strangers,” we an¬
swered, “who have had the misfor¬
tune to get lost m your woods near
by.”
“Well, come to the fire. Begone,
Badger! I say, Badger, won’t you
hush V
A few steps more, and we stood in
the presence of a decrepid old man.—
His cabin door stood open, and there
was & fire of fagots in front of it. It
was evident that it had not long been
replenished. We were invited to take
seats, and motioned to some rude
benches conveniently placed.
“I had |ust laid down aud fallen
asleep, wheu Badge waked me by
his barking, and I knowed by the way
he barked that it was someone more’ll
common that disturbed him; so I got
up and chunked up the fire, I did, so
I might sec, and that they might sec,
if they was wishing to come here.—
Here,” said ho, “ excepting in the cold¬
est and wettest weather, I spend most
of rny time, preferring to sit by a log
fire in front of the door; and some¬
times when I’m mighty tired, I sets
iu this chair,”
lie had just resumed his seat, and
so unique was this simple and time¬
worn piece of furniture, that I must
attempt a description.
In some wind storm a large cypress,
partly hollow, had broken off and
blown to the ground. The remains of
its great trunk lay there still. The
stump, about four feet high, had bro¬
ken at two points, and so left It shaped
that it had the form of a rude high
backed chair. Some little finish had
been given to the top of tho back, and
the seat, by an axe—the whole scat
and back upholstered with the furs of
the animals captured for food. The
raccoon, the opossum, anti otter, had
yielded up their lives to cushion and
line it.
“Just in the cabin,” said he, “is my
summer chair;’’ and lie brought it
forth. As a seat of honor, it was giv¬
en to Uedmond. A real wicker-work
it was—the bamboo and wistaria.
“But,” said I, “ how do you endure
such isolation ?”
TIIF, ItKfifMIT’s STORY.
“Ah, well!” said he, *T have endured
it so kmg that it has ceased to be a
hardship; it would be endurance, in¬
deed, now, to thinkofauy other life
ami then followed an entertaining
chapter of how he had lived there, as
well as the circumstances that had, in
a chequered calmer, driven him to seek
the repose he thus enjoyed—denied
him elsewhere in the fickleuess of for¬
tune’s allottment.
“You are an exception to most per¬
sons of your age,” said Redmond. “In
life’s declining year, no matter how
exclusive, we generally want, at least,
one person for a prop and stay,”
“I have a nephew," replied the her¬
mit, “who lives one mile across the
creek there. He commonly passes
hero once a week, and if I wish to see
him sooner, I just blow that horn you
see by the door, and he soon comes.—
Orrcc or twice a year, specially in the
spring, when they are herding sheep,
the neighbors come by to speak a
word with the old man on the island.
They call this place where I live
‘Schoffncr’s Island.’ and the ford 1 four
miles below here, where you crossed
this morning, is ‘Schoffncr’s ford’—for
in my younger days I was the onlv
man in many miles, for years, near
this crossing. I used to wade it then,
and when the creek was up I crossed
it in my dug-out. Things are changed.
A great bridge is there now; they tell
me it cost hundreds of dollars.
“Excuse me,strangers—I have mighty
poor fare, but such as it is, you are
welcome. Just wait a minute and I’ll
bring you something to eat, for you
must be a hungry.”
We insisted that he should give him¬
self no trouble on our account, but
when he Invited us to eat some of the
com cake and broiled squirrel, that
he had warmed over by the fire, we
could not resist the temptation, at
least, of trying what had savory smell
to our appetites whetted by the ardu¬
ous exercises of the day. Wo enjoyed
it too, never so much—thinking all
the while what a contrast the canopy
of branches and tender leaves, with
the firmament in the back-ground,
bore to the ehandelier-lit halls and
artistic viands of the great caravnnseri
whence we so lately wandered forth.
During this rude repast we learned
from him that la nice weather he ven¬
tured far enough, with the aid of
Badger and his old-fashioned rifle, to
shoot and capture game enough to
replenish his larder, and in a little
clearing near by he raised corn enough
for his bread.
