DISAPPOINTMENTS AND MI.SIOK-
TUNES.
Who baa not been at tome time
end in eofice degree ^objected to sore
trials And ragged drawbacks in I be
ioarse ot life T It baa been tbe lot
of almost every human being at some
period or in some way to experience
Adversity, nod those ure fortunate
who, in their troubles, find tbo lights
of old friendships still *»rm and
bright in misfortunes as they were
in 1b# days of propitions forlune.
Men i.nd women should so live us lo
feel the consciousness of unyielding
integrity. lie who is thus fortified
is covered by an impenetrable and
protecting shield. Many minds are
to gently and delicately constituted
that they yield too readily to the
wintry blasts of disappointments
and tha blight of fadod expectations
While this may sho\y that they have
hearts ot keen sensibilities and refin
ed emotions, it proves also that phys
ically and mentally they are not con
stitoted to buffet the angry waves of
misfortune, or have cultivated and
unetrnng to an nndno extent those
chorda of sonl Which yield melody to
I he breath of happiness and wn<l (o
that of misfortune and sorrow.
While it is pleasing to see in any
one the emblems of sensibility iu
difficulty and danger, it is admisable
to show a true heart, n sustaining on
ergy and unconquerable spirit. He
who displays energy in adversity is
far more certain of receiving tbo sub
staQlhd sympathy and enconrago
meut of tbe world than bo who sinks
under the sweep of the tempest. Tbe
man who defies the rnge of the
storm, who meets it with an unblink
tog and steadfast eye, is apt to ox
cite admiration and sympathy, and
may triumph over apparently iusu
perablo difficulties and dangers. Tbe
proud spirit of mao should rise iu
dignity and unbroken strength,
though adversity and poverty and
neglect may surround it, though
even human love itself ehonld falter
in ita idolatry. It should take cour
age, look up. and rely upon integrity
anJ energy, for they are linked with
the most valuable gifts of fortunes.
In no other way can man hope to re
trieve disaster, when anticipated sue
cess and triumphs have vanished
like the dreams of » summer night.
An elegant writer lias said: “No man
need feel ashamed of sorrow." So
phocles makes even Hercules sink
beneath impressions of vicissitude,
The man of virtue becomes sacred
by misfortunes, and every honorable
mind feels disposed to Address him
as the courtier* of Gambol addressed
tbe persoo of their sovereigu, “May
your sorrow bo turned upon me.’’
Tbe same writer eloquently said:
“Whan we look around os and be
bold the pride, the envy and malice
that oppress tbe roase of mankind;
wbnn we coniideT faOW many vittuea
society nips iu thffi bud, and with
what industry it puslebes those vir
tues it is obliged in decency to com
mand; when wb s*e with what eager
ness tbe feelings are insulted and
the mind starved, ami observe the
seeming deHght with which some
men survey lb* iwetehtilnres of
their fellow creatures, there is, ahsur
edly, prefonftdeit sufficient justification for the

Flip, Flap, Flop.
Iu 1888*4, tbo Atlanta Constitu
tion was sn advocate of free trade—
free trade, pure and simple. Vide
tbe following from sn editorial which
ap peered in that paper on October
24,1888.
“All the argument# for freedom in
general, apply to freedom ol traffic,
while against it can he urged only
tbo same pleas end pretexts which
•re used in support o all other bond
age and all abuses. For all free
dom, freedom of presumption person, limb, is speech,
conscience, the strong.
In this powerful presumption, What is free free
trade has its full share.
trade? Whoso right does it violate?
Vet this fundamental right is denied
by the protectionists. Free trade is
open air, sunlight, liberty. Our pres
•nt commercial policy, suffocation,
darkness, shackles. The return to
true principles will Lo open air alter
a dungeon—tree limbs alter chair .
Suppose all barriers lo commerce
were as effctually removed between
nations as they are now between the
several States of the United States
(which would bo free trade), each
nation would then have cast off ef¬
fectually, a cast iron suit— a straight
jacket—imposed heretofore by ignor-
anoe and craft. The world would
have found, in unity of interest, the
strongest possible bond of peace.
Our present policy >a one in which
selfishness is aggravated by stupidity
and childish ignorance uncompcnsat
ed by childish innooc nee.
Free trade restores us to the world
and the world to us. It avails ol all
God’s gifts to man, and is as wide os
his bounty. The prosperity it gives
is natural and broad, built on a safe
bottom of honesty and enlightenment.
w Free trade knocked off the shack
Its from Great liri'uin, and with
what a bound she expanded. The
old and narrow system had damped
all her energies, like a Chinese shoe.
Iler chains gone, she burst forth into
natural and vigorous life. Our fu
lure is yet grander—our risks far less
than hers. * The rivalry un'cr free
trade is a generous one. We have
lost twenty years, but wo will yet
overtake tbe foremost and pass by
Twenty ycais of free trade will do.”
Flip.
In 1880 the Constitution commeno
ed, all of a gudden and without pro
tending to profess a change of heart,
to preach the doctrine of protection
and denounce free trade.
Flap.
Now, in 1888, when we have a
Democratic President and a lighting
chance in Congress, making a revis
ion of our abominable and unjust pro
tective tariff system possible, we find
the Constitution leading a crusade in
Georgia against tho internal revenue
in the interest of cheap whisky and
tobacco as against cheaper dlothing,
cheaper agricultural implements and
other necessary articles in daily use
by the people.

This paper will shortly begin the publication ■ f a Serial Story with the above title, and
intense interest. Each chapter is alive with excitement and the plot moves on with a
and spirit which will, we believe, make this one of the most acceptable serials we have
offered in these columns.
THE BRETON MILLS
Is a story that will satisfy the popular demand for intense interest in each installment. The
scene is laid in a New England factory village. Both the employing class and the class of
the employed furnish adlors in the thrilling romance, and the reader's interest will be closely
held all through the changing scenes of the story. While not taking sides on the questions
working people, which are touched upon in the story, the author dissects the pa¬
thetic elements of the life of the poor with fearless hand. Still his romance, after all, is a
romance of love, and all else in the story is only introduced to solve tlie problem of one
man’s devoted and faithful nature.
