■ Liquor in Cut Off.
a Tr.juiiUANL t; u:uxu.ii from aval* 1
TON county.
M; if . Enn oit': •I am the oldest
man in Cut Off district. I was born
in that district seventy-one years ago,
and have lived in the district all my
life. I feel that a few of my recol
lections of the violent deaths that
have occurred in my district since 1
could remember would be of interest
to ti.c people of Walton county’. Six
ty five years ago I saw the first dead
person I ha 1 ever seen. It was the
corpse of a beautiful young lady, who
had burned to death. Iler name was*
Miss Sallie Williams, who was en
gaged at the time helping her father
kill hogs. Several men were present,
all r/ whom were beastly drunk. The
lady's dress caught on fire, and she
ran to the men to help her, but they
were too drunk to do anything, and
she burned to death. I charge this
death to King Alcohol. She had a
brother, known as Temp Williams,
who was present at the time his sister
burned to death, and was lying about
op the ground too drunk to get up.
’A few years after this sad occurrence,
this same brother got drunk and went
into a school house. lie tried to
make a fire, and, in doing so, set the
house on fire, and was burned up in
it. Ilis burned bones were gathered
up from tire ashes and buried. Whis-
ky killed him. But the worstsiglit j
I ever saw was the dead body of Jo
seph Weatherford. He w T as a terrible
drunkard, and in the midst of one of!
his sprees, he was found hanging bv 1
the neck to a chain at his horse lot I
gate. l)ut for his drinking, he would
have been a highly respected and I
yAKiii. Forty years ago last ,
PridnfV at the house where I now
live, a scene occurred which will bo
told bjr the parents of our district to
their children for many generations
to come. Jordan Harris, who, by
the way, had married my wife's sister,
came home from a trip in the Chero
kee country. lie was drunk, and
had been so for several days. In his
drunken rage, without any excuse or 1
just cause, he cut Ills wife’s throat
with a ra7.or, killing her instant'.}’,
and then turned on his poor old
mother-in-law and killed her with a
chestnut pole. Alford Whaley, a
brother of Mrs. Harris, the murdered
woman, and a son of the old lady,
whose dead body was still lying un
buried in the house, took his gun and
killed Harris. Here lay three dead
bodies at one house, all caused from
liquor. Whaley came to town and
surrendered to the Superior Court,
and was discharged without a trial
and went his way, highly commended
by every one for what he had done.
About the year 1868, Mark Ellison,
a noted drunkard and desperado, kill
ed a negro in Cut Off district. lie
was drunk and did this bloody deed
without cause. 'These are all the
deaths that can be traced to liquor
that have occurred in Cut Off within
my recollection ; but the number of
| cutting scrapes, shooting scrapes, and
other deeds of violence that I could
mention, that, had tficir origin from
whisky, the great enemy of mankind,
would fill an article too lengthy for
you paper. Surely, such scenes are
| enough to convince the young men,
and older ones, too, who may read this,
that nothing but evil results follow the
use of liquor.
In conclusion, Messrs. Editors, let
me beg. the voters of this county, in
the approaching election, and in all
future elections, to try to elect men to
■ the Legislature who will use all their
powers to rid the people of this terrible
monster, which will ever prove, the
j greatest curse to mankind.

The Hand of God.
A WOMAN, IN TIIE ACT OF PERJURY,
STRUCK DUMB, AND AFTERWARD DIES.
Nashville, August 2‘J.—A Mem
phis special to the American reports
a strange story, which comes from the
eastern portion of Shelby count} - , of a
woman being struck dumb while giving
false testimony. The facts as related
are as follows: On last Fridav a
colored man named James Price was
on trial before ’Squire .Alien, ajustice
of the peace, who has an olllce on the
Macon road, between Germantown and
Bartlett, Tennessee. Price had been
beating a number of women in the
neighborhood, and Isabella Jackson,
a colored woman, was placed on the
witness stand to teli what she knew of
the matter. She begau her evidence,
but was soon after asked by the judge :
*• Do you not know you are lying ?”
She answered, “ Yes, sir.” These
were the last words Isabella Jackson
ever spoke. She had appeared quite
independent, and to some extent im
pudent when first put upon the stan 1.
After her last remark a number of
questions were asked, but the woman
made no reply. Believirg her to be
shamming Uie Judge ordered Con
stable W. 11. Allen to escort the witness
from the court room, but when ordered
U) follow that officer site did not move.
i>o men of her own color were then
told to carry her out of the room.
While in the nut of carrying out the
woman it was observed that she was
ii a helpless oond Lion. She had been
Unralyzed in every part. Her limbs
were motionless, her tongue had no
power and it snoil beeann? apparent to
all present that the hand of the Al
ijuglity 1 1 :v 1 been laid heavily upon her.
For two hours or thereabouts the
woman remained in this passive state.
■aT|- r which she was placed in a wagon
oafe coave\ ed to her home. She never
moved or spoke affer, nut on Saturday
evening she expired, no antidote
applied during the interval having
, availed in atfo ding (lie slightest relief.
File incident is verified by Esquire
j J-icp, before whom the woman appear
ed, and also by a ntuaber of persons
present at the t ime of its occurrence.
Culture in the Home.
Someone lias truly said, “that the
hope of the nation rest chiefly upon the
purity and culture of its homes.'’ One
of the great questions which vex the
minds of thinking men and women to
day is vital importance of a higher
standard of culture, and some method
1 obtaining it; or how the house
keeper may be a home keeper in the
truest sense of the word, and not sink
into a veritable drudge with no thought
about providing for the physical wants
of her family ; how home labor and
culture may go hand in hand and bless
the life of the household. When the
cares and labors of house kceing come
to us if we suffer it to absorb all our
time leaving ns none wc may call our
own to devote to reading, to the study
of the leading questions of’ the day, to
the companionship and social minds
of husband and children to the sweet
amenitses of home, then all previous
culture will avail us little in the build
ing of a home.
Overwork of an} kind unfits one for
all other duties, but do we not do a
greatdeal of unnecessary work ? would
it not bo better to cook plainer food,
dress plainer and devote the time thus
gained to the more important needs of
our household, which is of the most
importance, that our families should
hate pie or cake at every meal and be
clothed in the extreme of fashion,
or that mother should be fresh and
cheerful, ready and able to amuse and
instruct the children ; to lead them
into the sweet companionship of books
and nature ? Which memory would
wc prefer our children to have of us
long years hence when they have gone
forth to battle with the cares of life,
the memory of the good dinners we
used to cook and the elaborate dresses
we made for them, or that mother was
always ready to give a listening ear
and a ready answer to their eager ques
tioning ? In fact to have them
remember that mother was always
their • dearest friend and most loved
companion.
I would not have }’ou infer that I
advise slighting the necessary work of
the household, or that I counsel care
lessness in regard to dress or home
adornment. No, indeed ! 1 would
have the home made as beautiful in
every was as it is possible but beautiful
both to the eye and the heart, such a
home as will leave loving memories in
the hearts of our children and bless
them all their days. It is only for a few
short years at best that wc can have
our children with us, and it is for us
to say whether, as they grow older,
they shall grow away from us. The
impressions of early childhood do more
to form the character than all the in
structiou? of later years, and parents
can never be too wise Tor their wonder
ful work.
As the mother is in culture and re
finement so to a great extent will the
household be. Then let us never, for
the love we hear our children ; for the
hope we have of their being wiser and
better than ourselves, never let us be
come such slaves to our housework
tiiat no time is left for social and in
tellectual .culture, for the small sweet
courtesies of life ; no time left for the
blessed work of building a happy home,
from which our children shall go forth,
noble men and women, strong to battle
for the right and to do good service in
the work of the world and the upbuild
ing of hu:nnni*j\

A Novel Ride.
lid Falconer, formerly railroad
station agent at Durham, now working
in the mills at Smok}' Flat, came to
Chico yesterday in the flume. He
started from the mountains about 7
o'chick in the morning, when the
atmosphere was cold and crisp, with
nearly everything covered with frost,
making one wish for an overcoat, lie
mounted a raft and shoved off, and
did not stop until lie had reached a
warm and sunny station along the wa
tery ride. Traveling in the flume is
dangerous but exciting sport. One is
sometimes gliding smoothly along on
level water, and then is suddenly
•dashed forward on a down grade at an
almost lightning speed, with the boat
or raft at a seeming angle of lo degrees.
Along the ilurues, through the canyons
and over gorges can be seen some ’of
the most picturesque scenery of the
Sierras, which would make the heart
of a true artist leap with joy. Very
few accidents have ever occurred on
the Sierra Lumber Company’s flume,
but if there should be a break at some
of the high places, a person riding
along would suddenly be dashed into
“ kingdom come.” Riding down the
flume has a striking similarity to
sliding down a hill on a sled—it. is fun
to shoot downward with a tremendous
velocity, but difficult to ascend. The
boat that was once made by one of our
citizens, whereby a person could ride
up the flume, has doubtless proved a
failure, as wo never hear any more of
it.- It was the hope offf he inventor to
have his craft ascend lhe flume by the
aid of the water passing against
paddles like those of a river boat.
Large quantities of lumber S’c now
bc-ing floated from the mountains daily,
and a person riding in the flume en
counters great danger of being run into
b}' floating timbers. Men are employed
to watch and work along the flume the
same as workmen on a railroad. Thcii

Pickles and Pickling.
The number of questions which come
to us every summer on the subject of
pickles is very great. The purport of
a majority of these is : “ I low can we
put up pickles to look like those sold
in jars at the stores ?” The fine ap
pearance of these pickles in bottles is
due to two things : They are made
green by the use of coopy, and the
vinegar is colorless. It is called
White-wine vinegar," but is really
made from whiskey. So far as
health go<3s, this vinegar is as whole
some as any other, but it is entirely
lacking in the pleasant odor and taste
of cider vinegar. Handsome pickles
can not be made with cider vinegar,
but they are a great deal better. The
pickles are greened by soaking them
to free them from salt, in a coppy ves
sel, or most generally by the use of
Verdigris, which is the acetate of cop
per. As we do not advise the making
of pickles green by this prnces.s, we
do not give the details. Such pickles |
should not be bought, and ought not
to be sold. Serious results may fol
low the continued use of even the !
minute quantity of copper these hand
some pickles contain.
At the pickle factories, the owners
contract witli the growers for cucum
bers of a size that may be agreed up
on, at a fixed price per thousand. If
the size is small, the vines must be
looked over every day or two. What-
over the size, they must always be cut
from the vines, with the stems left on
them. At the factories they are placed
in large wooden vats, using half a
bushel of salt to five bushels of cucum
bers, with water enough to cover them.
In salting them for home use, an or
diuary whiskey or alcohoUbarrel may
be used, removing one head, and malt
ing a follower of boards, to keep the
cucmmbers under the brine. The cu
cumbers are placed in the barrel as
they are picked, and salt sprinkled
among them. When the barrel is half
full, add water to cover the cucumbers ;
as more are added, use more salt, and
water if needed, to cover them, using
half a bushel of salt to the barrel.
When full, head up the barrel, knock
out the bung, and fill up completely
with water. In tight barrels cucura
hers in a brine of this strength will
keep for a longtime. In salting small
quantities, a brine strong enough to
float a potato may' be poured over the
cucumbers, placed in ajar or keg. It
takes about a month for the brine to
thoroughly penetrate them, and make
them fit for putting into vinegar. For
family use most persons prefer the
cucumbers rather larger than those
sold in bottles ; whatever the size fixed
upon, it is desireable to have all in the
same lot as nearly of a size as possi
ble.
The following vegetables may be
salted in the same manner : Green to
matoes, string beans, green peppers,
martynias (taken when very tender),
aud unripe melons with the contents
removed through a hole made in the
side, l'eppcrs have a slit made in
them to admit the brine into the interi-!
o x At the pickle factories, great care
is taken to u*e only the purest salt; !
that containing lime is said to cause
decay. Coarse salt in crystals is the
best. Atncr’e ni AgrknlfnrM.

The Six Girl Tramps
F.NDING Til Fill WALK OF A MONTH
Tiinovon tji!■: noLtii Carolina
MOUNTAINS.
Mcnuoe. N. August 20.—-To
day the party of six girls who started
about the first of the month to walk
ail ovei North Caiolina arrived at
LAurenburg, where their walk ends.
They are all well and in good spirits,
though much sunburnt., and arc as
comely a set of lady pedestrians as
ever undertook a long tramp. They
started in the neighborhood of Hen
dersonville nearly a month ago. To
the suggestion that l>v going alone
and with'iio one to protect them they
would subject themselves to insult
they replied that they were willing to
make the attempt, and they averred
to-day that, from first to last they had
never received one rude word or rough
jest from anyone.
On the first week of their trip they
suffered much from exhaustion, and
the youngest and frailest of their
[•arty, Miss Murdock, had to stop and
rest, because of severely blistered feet,
il was feared that she would have to
abandon the trip, but she pushed on
nobly, and after the eighth day began
to strengthen and is now one of the
healthiest of the fair tramps. Her
weight when she started was but 92
pounds and she turns the scales to
day at 103 pounds. AH save two of
the walkers fattened after the first
week, while two who were inclined to
obesity were pulled down twelve and
eighteen pounds. Their records show
that they made 420 miles. They
started out with the expectation of
making between five and six hundred
miles. Each walker wore a pair of
stout red leather walking slices and
wore short walking dresses, anil car
ried strong staffs in her hands and a
knapsack upon her shoulders, in which
was packed a hammock and other ne
cessary articles. They also wore very
bioad brimmed hats which, however,
do not seem to have i rotected their
complexion, for they are all burned
brown. Two of the party carried pis
tols as a protection from accidental
incursions of wildcats and bears.
Much of the time they slept -in the
open air in their hammocks, under
canvas coverlets, which were used as
a shield from heavy dews and rains.
One night, ten days ago, apprehend
ing a severe storm, they camped in a
graveyard and slept between the
graves. Another night, in the moun
tains, they were thrown into conster
nation by the appearance of a bear,
but the 1 cast, was as frightened as
they were, and fled without offering to
molest them. In the mountains they
were in great terror of rattlesnakes,
but did not encounter any of the rep
tiles.
Along their route they were treated
kindly. Many of the hospitable farm
ers entertained them, but they shun
ned notoriety and avoided all the
towns and villages, frequently going
some distance out of their way rather
than meet crowds. A novel feature
of their undertaking was the keeping
of what they called the log-book. In
this the record of their impressions
and adventures was kept, each taking
her turn. The'book contains twelve
hundred and forty-six closely written
pages. They end the trip now be
cause three of their number will begin
their schooldays early, in September,
but they assert their determination to
walk over the unexplored portion of
the State next summer.
Utilizing Crows.
A Pennsylvania farmer has turned
the crows to a good account, lie
makes them allies in his work". Writ
ing to tiic American Agriculturist, he
says : “ For tiie past five seasons I
have, just before I expected rny r corn
up, sowed on the field about a quart
of corn to each acre, and repeated the
operation as often as necessary, until
the corn was so large that the crows
could not pull it up. If the corn is
soaked until tender, they prefer pick
ing what they want to eat from the
surface rather than to pull the young
plants to get it. The cost of the corn
thus sown is but a trifle ; as a result
1 have a great number of crows almost
constantly on my corn-field, and after
they have been satisfie i with corn,
they will still pick up ali the insects,
grubs and cut worms they can find, as
a dessert. In raising fifty acres of
corn since adopting this plan. [ have
not lost a hundred stalks by crows and
cut worms combined.”
Up to the time Emerson thought’
lessly wrote, “ Every natural action is
graceful,” no woman had ever sat on
the edge of a dock to fish.

HOW WATCHES ARE MADE.
It will bo apparent to any one wlio will
examine a Sou t>lior i> Watch, that aside
from the necessary thickness for engraving
and polishing, a large proportion of the
precious metal used is needed only to
stitl'en and hold the engraved portions in
place, and supply the necessary solidity
and strength. The surplus gold is actu
ally needless so far as UTIIJTY and beau
tv are concerned. In .JAMES BOSS'
PATENT <;<>!.!> WATCH CASES, this
waste of precious metal is overcome, and
the SAME SOLI Dl l Y ANI) STRENGTH pro
duced at from one-third to one-half of the
usual cost of solid cases. This process is
of the most simple nature, as follows : a
plate of nick to composition metal especi
ally adapted to the purpose, has two plates
of Solid oot.I) soldered one on each side.
The three are then passed between polish
ed steel rollers, and the result is a strip o,
heavy plated composition, from which the
cases, hacks, centres, bezels, Ac., are cut
and shaped by suitable dies and formers.
The gold in these eases is sufficiently thick
to admit of all kinds of chasing, engraving
and enamelling; the engraved cases have
been carried until worn perfectly smooth
by time and use without removing tlio
gold.
