One Morse That Was Not I'nnic Stricken When Hi" Manter Went to Kescu*. Him. The common belief that horses iu a , burning building are always panic I stricken and refractory, not recognizing | their friends and refusing obedience to ; those who would rescue them, is not Strictly true, as is proved by an incident related by a Companion contributor. The governor had a fine black driving horse called Dexter. Although strong and spirited, Dexter was docile and obe dient and was petted and made much of by his master. As the governor kept no other horse, Dexter had the stable all to himself, with a clean stall and a full manger. The stable was near the house, and in addition to Dexter's stall and harness room contained a large carriage room, an oat bin and a haymow over the stall. One night, when the family and the servants were away from home and the governor was in the house alone, he was awakened by an ominous crackling and a bright glare on his chamber win dow, and before ho could collect his sle-py wit- he was stu-rtl-d by a cry un like any sound bo bad ever heard. As ho sprang out of bed the cry came again, and hastening to the window he learned the cause. The stable was all ablaze, and out of the smoke and flames Dexter was calling his master to his rescue. Pausing only to don coat and slippers, the governor rushed out. The outside door of the stable leading into the stall was already blocked by the flames, and the only entrance to be had was through the carriage room, the harness room and a narrow entry leading past the oat bin. These rooms were on lire overhead, and burning wisps of hay and shingles were raining down in showers. Blinded by smoke, the governor stum bled along the roundabout way and, reaching the stall sooner than ho expect ed, fell headlong down the stops against the excited animal, who was vainly tugging at his halter. Thinking some new danger threatened him, Dexter gave a mighty kick that sent his master sprawling and lamed him for a month. “Whoa, Dexter!’’shouted the govern or. “Don't you know mn, sir? Steady now, old fellow, and we’ll get out of this. ” Recognizing his master’s voice, Dex ter turned his head toward the prostrate man and uttered a coaxing whinny quite uiilike his j I'evious loud Cries of ulariii. Knowing h- med fear no more kicks, th- govern ;■ rr ptupand cut the halter and, (tilling Dexter to follow him, limped blindly through the smoko filled entry and the two I.fazing rooms be yond, and close after him went Dexter, iii.s nose pi'-s..< d against his master’s shoulder, iiitin and horse reaching the safe outer air together “It was 1 lexter's obedience that saved him, ” said the governor. “1 could not lead him, and had he shown the least obstinacy or any less readiness to fol low at a word through all that round about. unaccustomed way I must have left him to perish in the flames, but ho followed like tt well trained soldier, and we escaped from our burning, fiery furnace almost as safely as Shadrach, Meshiu-h and Abednego did from theirs. ’’ —Youth's Companion.

Editor : Some years ago 1 took an idea that land was the safest investment that a man could make in Georgia, and as a consequence, I am now land poor; have more than I can profitably make use of, and consequently want to get rid of some, or all of it, and I have decided to adopt the following measure to get rid of it: I will say,in the first place, that the land is the best in Monroe county, is fine ly- watered, and is adapted to raising cat tle, sheep and hogs, and is the best for cotton, corn, wheat, oats and other grains in the county, There arc a number of tenant houses on the place, and a home recently built that, cost mo over $3,000 to build. The land, in the first place, cost me from $25 down to $4 per acre—saying altogether,about $lO per acre, without improvements; and to get rid of it, I will average the whole place at $lO per acre, in the following way : I will have the entire place, 1,000 acres, sub-divided into 50-acre lots, at $lO per acre, giving more than 50 acres to one party, if desired, and less than 50 to another, according to his ability to pny for it, as the case may be, the entire quantity to be drawn for. In other words, the number of lots and quantity of land to be put in a hat or box, and drawn out under approval of a com mittee of gentlemen, at some stated time, so that all shall have a fair chance to get a home at a low price, and no one has a chance of losing their m mey, or failing to get their value, as paid, and some get a farm at far less than cost. The land is 12 miles frun Macon, a city of some 50,000 or 00,000 people, and is adapted to market gardening, and for northern people who know how to work, it offers a fine opportunity for a colony of energetic citizens. It is all together, and would make a fine settlement, having the best of pastures, water, springs, creeks, etc. The land is timbered with hickory, beach, oak and pine,-and some cedar; in fact, it is the best place I know of, and I am satisfied the ed itor of the Call will vouch for what I say. I would be glad to have any parties who mean business, to go over the plantation, familiarize themselves with the advan tages, and communicate with me at Barnesville, before going into the matter, assuring them that I rr ean what I say. In aduit’on to the terms offered above, I have concluded to make the terms of pay ment in four annual payments without interest, which is tantamount to putting the price of the land very low. The titles to the land have been in the posses sion ot one or two parties for years, and » hnvrA nr.f/.r E.i.ri ,■ : ■ -t i n< • 1 Dll I fITP .‘IS ; have never been <[iiesitoneu ana are as go id as gold. I am not particularly wedded to this plan of getting rid of my lands, but only suggest the idea—any better plan would be thankfully substituted. S. 13. BURR, Sb, Barnesville, Ga. GEORGIA.
