Suffering from a general want of tone, and

nervousness, is seldom derivable from the
use of a nourishing diet and stimuli of
appetite, unaided. A medicine that will
effect a removal of the specific obstacle to
renewed health and vigor, that is a genuine
corrective, is the real need. It is the pos

THE STORM PIT DISCUSSION.
Brother Word Replies to Brother Ragan
and Takes Leave of the Subject.
Editor Free Press:—Brother
Itagan in his farewell shot seems to
flatter a little, chide a little, and in
dulges in a little irony, but finally
comes to the conclusion that we
just as well drop the storm pit ques
tion, and after writing almost two
columns decides that silence is a
great virtue. Now if he had decided
before he wrote his elaborate arti
cle, it would have saved me the
trouble of a response.
I certainly appreciate his high
opinion of my abilties, but must
Judah Peter Benjamin.
The death of Hon. Judah P. Ben
jamin closed the earthly career of
a most remarkable man. was
of obscure origin, his parents being
Jews of somewhat limited means.
His genius was such that after
being admitted to the bar his rise
in the profession was so rapid that
he may almost be said to have leap
ed into fame at one bound. With
a remarkable memory, studious
habits, a clear analytic mind, and
of fine address, he was eminently
fitted for a successful career at the
bar. Besides, lie was a man of great'
courage, and could, as occasion
demanded, be collected and imper-
say that I think his judgment is ab- j turbable or aggressive and dashing
out as much at fault in refereuee to
my qualifications te represent the
people of Carroll in legislature, as it
in the appropriateness of the Scrip
tures he has quoted in justification
or support of storm pits. Myyoung
friend seems to be overwhelmed
with surprise that one of my age
should have such anti-pit proclivi
ties. Now it seems to me that iflwas
on the other side of the question,
after kind Providence has preserv
ed me over a half century, brought
me through war, pestilence and
storms, if after all this kindness I
should go into a pit for protection,
then there would be reason, for
astonishment, if not for hissing.—
I very much admire my young
friend’s respect for age. My weap
ons are the word of God and will
not be easily conquered by others
much less myself.
You are right in believing that
all my articles have been based up
on faith, that God over-rules, con
trols, guides and brings about each
and every incident affecting the
physical, temporal and I will add,
spiritual welfare tf his children.—
Proof: Paul says, “we know that all
things work together for good to
them that love God, to them that
are th called according to his pur
pose.” I never said though they
live regardless of any appliance of
the instinct of reason, judgment and
good sense. The Scriptures echo
yes, God did use the wicked to chas
tise his people, suffered them to be
taken in bondage, yes he permitted
the Devil to afflict Job. Neither do
1 believe that the author of all good
incites, inspires or guides men to
the perpetration of wicked acts, to
carry out his purposes, as in the
case of Joseph’s brethren selling
him, and in the betrayal and mur
der of Christ. I failed to see the
similarity between Noah and the
pit diggers. I am not opposed to
making improvements, but can
not see much in digging holes in
the yards for protection. So far as
doing as our daddies done I think
it will do very well so far as relates
to digging pits. Nor would I advo
cate a religion that comes and goes
as storms. Christ did not only
preach a special temporal provi
dential doctrine, but a special sal
vation doctrine. For proof, see
Luke, 4th chapter, 26th—30th verse,
St. John, 6th chapter and 37th verse
and 10th chapter 56th verse. I
think the Scripture quoted is suffi
cient, for my artcles, name or no
name. I do hold that Providence is
under special obligations to ward
off the ills of life to a certain class,
for God has promised it, so far as
shall be to their good and his glory.
Proof 91st Psalm, also 32rd and 34th
David says a horse is a vain thing
for safety, neither shall he deliver
any by his great strength. This is
about what I think of pits. Now
as brother Ragan has utterly failed
to find any Scripture to support his
pit theory, I will refer him to what
Solomon says, and perhaps he may
wrest it so as to draw some comfort
from it: “A prudent man foreseeth
the evil and hideth himself but the
simple pass on and are punished.”
I think death is the evil foreseen,
and thathidingin the secret place
of the Most High, and that is in
Christ, is what is taught, and not
the seeing of a storm and hiding in
a pit.
And now with thanks to Broth
er Ragan for suggesting a new
theme and with kind feelings to all
who think my side of the discussion
ridiculous, and best wishes for all
who have dug pits I close my part
of the discussion. J. O. R. Word.
The lawyers who have the case
of the bank robbers, in Augusta,
in charge, hope to save them from
punishment on “technical” grounds.
We mention this fact to show how
hard it is to secure punishment of
the most outrageous law breakers
in the courts of justice, so called, as
well as to show why it is that the
tendency is so strong in some com
munities to call for the surely
avenging hand of Judge Lynch.—
Macon Telegraph.
Hogansville has a jug factory.
and had few equals and no superiors
at the bar or on the stump. He was
faithful to every trust reposed in
him, and his career both as Secreta
ry of War and afterwards as
Secretary of State of the Confeder-
aey, was able and brilliant under
the most adverse circumstances,
At the end of the war Mr.Ben-
jamin, knowing he could serve the
South no longer, and could only
subject himself to imprisonment
and many other persecutions and
annoyances by remaining in
America, sought an asylum in
England, where he had influential
friends. As a mark of especial favor
he was admitted to the bar at Lon
don without the delay usually re
quired in case of foreign attorneys,
became a British subject, and at
once came into a large jind most
lucrative practice. His success in
London was phenomenal, and his
practice secured him a comfortable
fortune in less than twenty years.
Pie had lost one fortune acquired at
the bar by the results of the war be
tween the States.
Some three years ago Mr.Benjam-
in was seriously injured in jumping
from a car while on a visit to Paris
and he never recovered. His health
has rapidly declined during the
past four or five months and his
death was not unexpected. He hai
resided Paris for some months, and
it was there that he died at the the
age of 73. With Judah P. Benjamiu
passed away one of the foremost
figures of the remarkable body of
men composing the Confederate
government. Among his most prom
inent associates in the Confederate
Cabinet Randolph, Sedden, Breck
inridge, Trenliolm and Mallory
have preceded him to the tomb. His
chief, ex-President Davis, and Gen.
Tombs, R. M. T. Hunter, Gen. L. P,
Walker, Judge John A. Campbell
and Mr. Memminger, and others of
lesser prominence, are yet alive,
through they are all bowed with age
and their locks are white with the
frosts of many winters. A few years
more and they, too, will have passed
away.—Savannah News.
Some lawyers take very practi
cable views of cases in which they
are retained. In a certain town in
Missouri, Squire G ’s was de
fending a doctor whom a colored
man was suing for damage his wife
having died shortly after an opera
tion for the removal of a cancer.
When it came Spuire G ’s turn
to cross examine the plaintiff, he
asked: “Mr. Wilson, how old was
your wife when she died?
“About forty-five, sir.”
“Been in feeble health a long
time had she not, Mr. Wilson, and
cost you a great deal for medicine
and help ?
‘Yes sir.’
•You have married again have
you not?,
‘Yes, sir.’
How old is your present wife ?’
‘About forty-five, sir.’
‘Is she stout ancl healthy, Mr.
Wilson ?’
Yes, sir. 4
‘Then, Mr. Wilson, you will please
state to this jury how you were
damaged in the case.’
Mr. Wilson had evidently not ta
ken this view of the matter, and
could make no answer. The good
and true men thought he had made
rather a good thing by his bereave
ment, and brought in a verdict for
the defendant.
Fort Worth Texas, is one of the
wonderful Western towns. At the
close of the war it had 350 inhabi
tants. In 1876, when the Texas and
Pacific Railroad first reached it, the
number of its inhabitants was 2,000.
In 1880 it claimed 6, 663, and it now
has 22,000. It has half a dozen rail
ways and there are several more
projected.

Modes ofRttutation.
A French frav»ir reports that
every race amongwhom he has so
journed has its owjnodeof saluta
tion, not excepting fhe great Yan
kee nation. He inrap*ms his read
ers that, however a£w polite and
Europanized Americans may salute
one another, the ch$jracteristic na
tional salutation is “®ello!”
We fear he is righsk The tele
phone is accused of hSgring fastened
the stigma upon us; bat in trnth the
telephone only a(tep£d the word
already familiar to all boys and
most men.
The Arabs say, on meeting, “A
fine morning to you!”
The Turk says with dignified
gravity, “God grant you His bles
sings!”
The Persian salutation is familiar
to all the world for its comic quaint
ness, “May your shadow never grow
less!”
The Egyptian is a practical man,
He has to earn his taxes by toil un
der a burning sun, and according
when he meets his fellow he asks,
“How do you sweat ?”
The reader is probably aware
that in those low latitudes all is
well with a laborer as long
as he perspires freely.
The good Chinaman loves his din
ner. “How are you digesting?” he
kindly inquires, on meeting a
friend.
The Greeks, who are keen men
of business, close, bargainers, ask
one another, “How are you get
ting on ?”
The national salutation of Naples
was formerly, “Grow in grace!” At
present, in all parts of Italy, they
use a phrase equivalent to “How
are you ?”
The Spaniards say, “How are yon
passing it ?”
The French, “How do you carry
yourself?”
The Germans, “How does it go ?”
The Dutch, “How do you travel?”
The Swedes, “How can you ?”
meaning, “are you in good vigor?’
The Russians, “Be well!”
The English-speaking races, in
addition to the juvenile and tele
phonic “Hello!” say, “How are
you?” and “How do you?”
We also take off hat, shake
hands embrace, bow and kiss, as
in other climes, people rub noses,
touch foroheads, and take off
their shoes.
The American in Italy is surprised
to see men embrace and kiss each
other as in Bible lands.
The Italians in turn look upon
our hand-shaking as cold and rid
iculous, the bobbing up and down
of the arm haviug no meaning
whatever in their view.
The touching of the tips of gloved
fingehs is more graceful than hand
shaking, must also seem to people
of the East as professional and ex
pressionless.
The startling^predietion of astrolo
gies and astronomers made some
time ago that a cycle of crime, dis
aster, disease and death, might be
expected between 1880 and 1885, be
cause the four great planets, Saturn,
Neptune, Uranus and Jupiter, will
all be in perihelion for the first
time in 4,000 years, attracted wide
spread attention. It was asserted
that the perihelion of these planets
would affect the sun, and thus in
directly disturb the natural laws of
the earth. A series of extremes of
heat and cold, with floods, hurricans
epidemics and earthquakes, was
predicted. It was also asserted
criminal outbreaks might be ex
pected. Referring to this subject,
the Albany Evening Journal says
that superstition can claim, with
some show of reason, that these pre
dictions are being fulfilled. The
great earthquakes of Ischia and
the Island of Java, the destructive
floods in this country, the cholera
in Egypt, the remarkable mildness
of the weather in Europe and its
severity in the Southern part of
the United Rtates. The record of
crime culminating in the riot at
Cincinnati, all might be cited as evi
dences of the fulfilment of the pre
diction. But sober, common sense
will listen to such logic with
incredulity.
Bill Arp.
Pursuing my way up the Ten
nessee road, the next farm house of
any importance I came to was that
of Maj. Chas. H. Smith (Bill Arp).
After an active life of many years,
in which law and literature have
claimed his attention, Maj. Smith
has retired to the comforts and
harassments of the farm and ap
pears to use a favorite expression of
his to be “calm and serene.” He
has a pretty well improved farm,
and a snug comfortable cottage.
The house is situated on a hill
fronting towarda the west. From
this point the prospect which
spread itself out before tne eye is
a pleasing one—a rich and fertile
valley through which winds a little
creek, fields of wheat and clover,
dotted here and there with a clump
of water oaks, and sheep, and goats,
and cows, and colts, all mixed up
and leisurely grazing or playfully
cantering over the pastures, form
a picture for an artist. As I passed,
the major was in the front yard,
repairing one of those terraces, of
which he has so often written, and
in which he seems to take such an
interest. He had his coat off and
was shoveling dirt. He looked so
comfortable and happy and conten
ted that I almost envied him, boy
as I was. The farm has ever had
an attraction for me. Sometimes
when I start to these little justice
courts and pass along through fields,
of waving wheat and rippling corn
and hear the merry whistle of the
plowboy, I am tempted to desert
Blackatone and be the farmer
nature intended me to be. I have
seen both Dr. Felton and Maj.
Smith in places that the world
called, “positions of honor and
trust,” but I have never seen either
one of them look more happy or
more independent than they ap
peared to be last week, as the sun
smiled down on them at their work
on their farm.—Cartersville Paper.
As a contrast in the line of Pres
idents Arthur is perfect. He is tlie
first and probably the last of his
kind. You can turn from Jefferson
in his long, worsted stockings and
gray homespun suit, receiving Mr.
Merry, the British Minister, to Ar
thur in the latest personification of
the fashion plate, and muse on the
superior evolution in Presidents.—
When I see magnificent dandies
yawning out of White’s, says
Thackeray, orcarroling in the park
on shinning chargers, I like to
think that Brummell was the great
est of them all, and that Brurcmell’s
father was the footman. So when
you read of the dandified splendor
the extra bath tubs, dressing rooms
and the superfluities of the Arthur
ian episode you, too, like to think
that the finical being received so
much elegance, was never the
choice of the country, never could
be; that the people with good-na
tured forbearance wait for his exit
from a scene where he has been
chiefly conspicuous by his sumptu
ous dressing, and where, too, like
the revival of an old sequence in
former stage management; after a
tragedy came the farce-or the Ar
thurian administration.

We urge the people to look well
to the moral and mental qualifica
tions of all who ask for their votes
and to give them to no man who
is not worthy. Let this rule be ob
served in every militia district, in
every county contest, and in our
Congressional and State elections.
Eternal vigilance is the price which
free men must pay for the liberty
which they enjoy. If our purest
men, simply because a political
canvass is disagreeable, refuse to
engage in it, they may be failing in
the very duty which is essential to
its preservation.—LaGrange Re
porter.
The term Blue Grass Region of
Kentucky is quite extensive in its
application, but in its popular sense
it applies only to the remarkable
body of land in the centre of the
State, which comprises six or eight
counties surrounding Lexington
This favored district, which scien
tific authority has styled “the very
heart of the United States,” is un
derlaid by a decomposable lime
stone, which imparts to the soil an
unsurpassed fertility, and gives to
the grass a rich and permanent lux
uriance which it attains nowhere
else. Hence the term “Ihe Blue
Grass Region,” a synonym for the
acme of fertility of a district which
also hears the proud distinction of
“the garden spot of the world.”—
But why the grass is called “blue,”
when it never is blue, is one of the
unlived problems. It is always
green except when in bloom, when
the heads have a brownish-purple
tint. If, however, the term “Blue
Grass,” is meant for an abbreviation
of blue limestone grass, then it will
do, for certainly it only reaches its
highest perfection on the wonder
ful blue limestone soil. Propagated
without cultivation, it comes up
thick and juicy early in the spring,
ripens in June, renews it growth
in autumn, and, retaining verdure
in spite of snow and ice, furnishes
abundant and unequaled pasturage
during the entire winter. It is be
lieved to be indigenous.
After full consultation the friends
of the home for Confederate soldiers
have thought it best for the present
to concentrate their efforts on the
building of the home in Richmond,
an J the movement te establish an
other home in Atlanta will nottake
definite form until the success of
the other is secured. Mr. W.W. Cor
coran, the Washington millionaire
philanthropist, has given $5, 000 to
the fund, which is becoming larger
everyday.
Took the Bait.—‘Well, dear, re
marked Mrs. Smith as her husband
started out for a day’s fishing, ‘I
hope you will be successful and
bring home a nice lot of fish.’
‘Never fear,’ responded Smith,
‘if there are fish to be caught I am
the hoy to catch ’em. Its a cold day
in the spring time when fish get
away from me.’
• ‘It is, indeed,’ his wife said; ‘and
by the way here is your pocket-
book lying on the table. You mus’t
forget that. You can’t catch fish
without bait, you know.’
“Where do you stand Mr. Candi-
didate” is a question which a “Son
of Toil” asks throgh the medium of
the Augusta News. It is a move
in the right direction. Candidates
that refuse to tell where they stand
are not worthy to be trusted. Ei
ther cowardice or indifference un
fits a man for good work in the Gen
eral Assembly.—Macon Telegraph.
Put a criminal on trial and he is
allowed twenty-three peremptory
challenges of jurymen while socie
ty has but two. Let that criminal
be found guilty, he can, under forms
of law, worry society for years with
his stay new trials, etc., and finally
perhaps escape; but let him be ac
quitted by means however mani
festly corrupt, and society can nev
er reach him for the same offense.
A squad of Atlanta reporters had
a ten hour race last Saturday night
over a tan bark track. The enter
tainment was greatly enjoyed by
the elegant society of the capital
ciiy, a governor and ex-governor
being in attendance. Rome had
her gladiatiorial contests and pub
lic bear fights. Atlanta cannot yet
aspire so high, but her enterpising
newspaper corps can get up an ele
gant foot race. Long live Atlanta.
