He Discusses Miss Hurst the Wonder
ful Magnetic Girl.
I can’t help ruminating about
Miss Lula, that/wonderful girl, who
is now astonishing herself and
everyliody else in this region. I
haven’t seen her yet, but I am
going on the stage as one of the
jury, for I don’t want to be turn*
hied about like a humming top by a
girl. When she gets a husband, I
reckon he will be a very meek man,
meeker than Moses. Why, she
could turn his side of the bed over
and spill him into the fireplace, and
lay there and laugh at him while
he was picking himself up.
But she is a good tempered girl
I know, or she would take satisfac
tion out of some folks, and bump’
^m around smartly, justto convert’
em to the faith, and amuse the audi
ence. All people of strength
and power are good temper
ed.
I have no doubt, whatever about
Miss Lula’s mysterious power, and
have no idea that muscle has any
thing to do with it. This is not the
first ease on record. Newspaper
literature has many of them and
the standard hooks on animal mag
netism have hundreds of authentic
cases. As late as 1867,. all of Boston
was excited over a young Irish
girl who was hired as a chamber,
maid near that city and who was
at first slightly affected with this
mysterious power, and it grew on
her until she could not even ap
proach a piece of furniture without
disagreeable consequences. The
table turned uver with the crock
ery, the wash-stands kicked up
their hind legs and spilt the pitch
ers and the chairs went sliding
away from her like they
were bewitched. The poor girl
had no kindred and was afraid of
herself and cried and her employer
took her to Boston to be treated
by the physicians and they put
her on exhibition as a world’s won
der. There ■ was nothing peculiar
in her appearance except a profu
sion of long coarse black hair that
looked like two or three horses
tails bunched up together. Sam
son lost his power when they cut
off his hail- and maybe Miss Lula
would too, I dont know, I dont
know anything hardly for the
world is full of mysteries aiul I’m
not going to say a thing is not so
just: because I cant tell"why tis so.
The hair has got something to k do
with strength and will power and
maybe that is the reason why the
female sex electify us so and make
us do just exactly as they please.—
It is their long hair that like the
hundreds of hair like tubes in the
electric eel are full of magnetism.—
Those eels can knock a house down
in the water and never touch
him and some woman can
wither a man into subjec
tion by a lodk. History says that
Jupiter always shakes his am
brosial locks when he gives a com
mand. He is generating magnet
ism I reckon, but then woman’s
will is so sweet and so judicious
that we cannot complain, and as
for me I have no idea of using
the shears at my house. By no
means.
There are mysteries and myste
ries, some new ones, and the old
ones have become so familiar that
we dont notice them, and have
quit trying to understand or to ex
plain. What makes a seed produce
a plant or an egg a bird is the
same old mystery, it always was
and there are many just as won
derful. Indeed I cannot tell wliat
power guides my hand while lam
writing and nobody else can.—
.Such things are so common we
have ceased to wonder. Every
few years somebody comes up
with unnatural powers and sets all
the world wondering, but these
human curiosities are not new to
history. They are all old and
have been pondered and written
about by men of science and hun
dreds of books published and after
all th<;re is nothing settled. Noth
ing about spiritualism nor ani
mal magnetism nor clairvoyance
nor double consciousness nor the
spasmodic shakings of the shaking
quaker.s. In the old times Haul
went to the witch of Endor, a me-
dinm I reckon and got her to call

And ever since then there have
been visions ard trances and super
natural visitations at intervals all
over the civilized world, enough of
them in all conscience to satisfy
any reasonable man that
“It is not all of life to live,
Nor all of death to die/’
The spirits do communicate with
us at times I cannot doubt but I do
doubt their seeking such mediums
as tables and chairs and bedsteads
or even those human blasphemers
who deride revelation and make a
mock of God and religion. If spir
its do ever choose, such people as
their agents they are very, bad spir
its and I will not trust them nor be
lieve them.
I have great reverence for some
spiritualists. I believe that Sweden
borg was one of the greatest and
best men that ever lived and have
no doubt of his intimancy with
spirits and angels and he had a
spiritual sight that enabled him to
see far more than the human eye
can see. It is historically certain
that he knew T Stockholm was burn
ing when lie was a hundred miles
away and told the very minute
when the flames reached the palace
of the king. I believe that many
devout people have supernatual
visions on their death beds and
like Jacob of old, see the angels as
cending and descending. I believe
that a man can cultivate good and
pure emotions until he becomes
sublimated and refined and experi
ences an exaltation of the senses
and draws very near to his maker
and to heaven and a man can in
dulge in sin and degradation until
he draws equally near to the devil
and to hell and has not far to go to
get there. Swedenborg says that
whatever propensities a man in
dulges in this life he continues in
the spirit land and I believe that.
But spiritualism is one thing and
animal magnetism is another and
they are no kin It is just 100 years
since Mesmer astounded France
with his discoveries, and France
appointed a commission of five il
lustrious men to examine into it
and report to the government, and
our own Benjamin Franklin was
one of them and they reported in
favor of all the facts but against all
of the theories. Aftert hat the sci
ence found new friends and made
converts of such famous men as
Cuvier and La Place an d Agassiz
and Sir. Wm. Hamilton and profess
or Hitchcock. They declared that
there was a newly discovered force
or principle connected with our be
ing, and they named it Od and in
cluded animal magnetism, and
somnambulism and clairvoyance
and exaltation of the senses. They
declared that some persons w ere
constitutionally susceptible to this
influence and others w r ere not, and
that it has positive and negative
qualities like the poles of an electric
battery and maybe accumulated
in the system to a wonderful de
gree.
The experiments made by men of
science w r ere so astonishing that a
new r commission of five learned
men was appointed in 182-1 and they
declared unanimously in favor of
this mysterious pow’er of man over
man. Since that time there
has hardly been an interval of 20
yearsThat the world has not beenex-
ecised by more discoveries on this
line. About 40 years ago there w r ere
experments in most every town,
and we used to put persons to sleep
and mesmerize them to our entire
control. I remember a little darkey
Tobe that was a daily victim to Dr*
Alexander and Dr. Gordon, of Law-
renceville. Any of us could make a
machine of him in two minutes
and stiffen his limbs into iron aud
make him insensible to his owti
pain and sensible to ours. He had
no taste or smell or feeling or sight
IK,
to the exact time alld minute inci
dents.
With nil that has gone before we
have no right to sport with these
things as w r e sport with frauds and
tricks of legerdemain. If w r e cannot
explain we can wonder and wait.
Not long ago there was a man in
Liverpool who the London Times
says sat blindfolded in a darkened
room surrounded by men of science
and in his mind followed one of
them around several blocks and
saw him hide a pin under a window’
blind and he told w’here it was hid
den while sitting in his chair. You
see he went double with that man
He got his identity. He swallowed
him, as it' were, and absorbed his
will and his mental being.
But this is enongh and too much
I reckon. Miss Lula may have
more powers than she is aw’ are of
and I’m going to wait and see. Cer
tain it is that she is too young and
her family too honest and humble
to have planned any fraud or de
ception. Bill Arp,
A Cheerful Spirit.
The man or woman who always
reveals a cheerful spirit Will sue
ceed in life. The pleasant face will
carry its possessor safely through
iu spite of every opposing power.—
Smiles will banish the darkness
that gathers about every life path,
and the sunlight will fall upon life’s
pathway w herever a cheerful spir
it exists. The sunbeams will melt
the the world, and so a sunny spir
it will scatter the coldness and
darkness of humanity, and bring
brightness and blessing to those
about it.
If there is anything repulsive
about a human being it is a fretful
spirit and a sorrowful face. If
there is anything utterly repelling
and disgusting, it is the sour visag-
ed one who cannot smile or wear, a
cheerful look, lnrt who continually
broods over his misfortunes, and so
keeps on the shadowy side of every
thing. God’s sunshine is nothing
to him, any more than the sunlght
heaven is to the poisonous nettle-
weed under the shadow of the sli
my rock or dense shrubbery. His'
dwarfed amUselfish spirit is as near
ly like th^ net tie weed as it can be,
or like anything else that grows in
gloom and darkness.
A cheerful spirit is one of the
most valuable gifts ever bestowed
upon humanity by a kind Creator.
It is the sweetest and most fragant
flower of the spirit—that constant
ly sends out its beauty and fra
grance, and blesses everything
w ithin it reach. It will sustain the
soul in the darkest and most drea
ry place of the world. It w ill hold
in check the demons of despair and
hopelessness. It is the brightest
star that ever cast its radience
over the darkened soul, and one
that seldom sets in the gloom of
morbid fancies and foreboding
imaginations.
Cultivate, then, a cheerful spirit,
and cherish it as something sacred.
Obey the command, Rejoice ever
more,” and its light and blessed
ness w ill ever fall upon thy path
way-
hut that^of^the person who mag
netized him. 3Ve have seen these
things too often to doubt but
they are still as mysterious
as ever. I have seen people
who could not w rite at all, write a
good letter while blindfolded and
follow the lines and cross t’s witn
educated accuracy. Dr,Braid picked
up ;ui ignorant girl in New York, a

A Tongueless Darkey.—The
Barnesville Gazette get off the fol
lowing. Those up in she charac
teristics of the average Georgia
mule can appreciate it :
Last week Joe Mitchell, a color
ed citizen of Monroe county, had
the misfortune to loose his tongue.
It seems that Joe has a mule with
which to conduct his little farm and
he keeps him housed in a sort of
shuck pen stable. Joe, desiring to
have some fun at the mule’s ex
pense, took the tin guano strewer.
If you have ever seen one you will
remember that there is a funnel
placed on one end and the other is
simply left sharp. Joe put the
sharp end to his mouth and pointed
the funnel end at the mule. He
happened to be one of the Tump
Ponder kind of mules, and he fired
his heels at the funnel end of Joe’s
guano bugle. His aim was w r ell
taken, the mule’s heel came in con
tact with thq funnel an the result
to Joe w as, his tongue was clipped
off. Next time Joe will do as Mark
Twain suggest, speak to a mule’s
head and not to his heels.
Nothing Doing on Top.
They were two solid citizens.—
One was bald, but rejoiced iu a fine
luxuriant beard. The other had a
heavy growth of hair on his head,
but was very bald as to his chin.—*
The bald-chinned citizen was a very
talkative individual, whose con
versation was rapid and incessant.
■Meeting the bald-headed citizen
one day in a company of gentle
men, he opened fire on him touch
ing the barreness of his sconce.
“What do you suppose,” said he
in his rattling, vivacious way,
“w'hat do you suppose, neighbor, is
the reason that you have no hair
on your head and so much on your
chin ?”
“Well,” said the other very delib
erately, “scientists say that men
w r ho work with their brains create
such a heat in the scalp that the
hair is w T orn off.”
“That sounds like a likely the
ory,” chimed in the loquacious citi
zen.
“Yes it does,” returned the other,
“and I think your case is a striking
illustration of its probabilty. Now’,
you have plenty of hair on your
head but none on your chin* which
just backs up the scientific theory,
because all your work is done with
your jaws,—there’s nothing doing
on top!”

Com. .and Oats for Horses.
An agricultural exchange says
the value of corn and oats may be
briefly stated as follows: The
former is deficient in many of the
elements of nutrition so necessary
for recuperating the constant wear
and tear which necessarily takes
place in the body of a living animal.
On this account horses which are
fed exclusively on corn and hay do
.not receive the nourishment which
appears necessary for the due sup
port and maintenance of the ani
mal fabric: hence, we must not be
surprised that corn-fed horses
show signs of being languid, by
sweating profusely while being
w orked, lack of vitality, etc. Oats,
on the contrary, contain more of
the essential elements of nutrition
than any other article of food which
can be fed with impunity to horses*
Oats are not only the most natural
food for horses, but are decidedly
the most nutritious. They are the
cheapest, because there is less risk
in feeding them, and experience
has proved that horses properly fed
on oats and timothy hay can, w ith
regular exercise, good grooming,
and proper sanitary regulations, be
brought to the highest state of phy
sical cuiture, and can perform more
work with less evidence of fatigue
than when fed on any other article
of food.
A man w r ho know's how to take
care of his business says: “Stand
ing advertisements in a paper com
mand confidence. The man who
for a year resides in a community
and lives a reputable life, though
he be of moderate ability, will grow
in the confidence and esteem of his
fellows. On the same principle a
newspaper advertisement becomes
familiar to the reader. It may sel
dom be read, still it makes the man
and business of a man familiar,
and its presence in the columns
of a paper inspires confidence in
the stability of the advertisement.”
The Senate Committee on Claims
has ordered a favorable report to
be made on Senator Colquitt’s bill
to repay the State of Georgia $27,-
175,50 money advanced by said
State for the defense of her front
ier against Indians from 1795 to
1818 and not heretofore repaid.
The new postal notes have not
met with much favor from the
commercial men of the country,
and now a new and serious objec
tion has been raised to them. Ar
senic Is one of the ingredients used
in coloring them, and several clerks
in the Sixth Auditor’s office at
Washington have been poisoned by
handling them.
A Washington correspondent of
a New Orleans paper has this to say
al>out Senator’s having private sec
retaries: “A member of the House
has more need of a private secreta-
tary than a Senator. If he wants
that luxury let him pay for it. It
would have been much better
course in the opinion of many
members for the Senate to have vo
ted outright to increase their sal
ary $1000 a year. The bill in w'hich
there is an appropriation for the
Senate contingent fund, out of
which the private secretaries are
to be paid, is the legislative, execu
tive and j udicial. Tlie.HouseJprepar-
es this bill. There is likely to be a
dead lock between the House
and Senate when that bill
is considered this session. A num
ber of members have determined
to put in it a clause prohibiting pay
to Senator’s secretaries.” Right; —
hope it will pass.
“More mutual love and marriages
are among the great wants of our
time. The darkest side of our pre
sent social life lies in the direction
of this want. Young men and
maidens are not marrying as fast
as is good and healthful for public
morality and social virtue. Pure,
happy, industrious homes consti
tute the nucleus of both church and
State, and a peaceful, united pair is
the only normal, divinely establish
ed and perfectly rounded unit of
humanity and the only true centre
and source of all that makes life
valuable or earth blessed.”
The grand jury of Haralson mak
es a somewhat novel recommenda
tion, but nevertheless a good one 1
They recommed that the people of
the county support their local paper
