Willis m Youth’* Corapiuiion. The "Slicing Trocess" It, China. Owing tc the absence of wagon roads and railway's the Chinese depend upon the overs, canals and the ocean along the coast for nearly all their carrying. Any interruption to the immense traffic and travel of tlieso waterways would prove very serious. It is from this condition of affairs that piracy is considered one of the most heinous offenses. For this crime death by the slicing process is tho penalty. The slicing mode of execution rivals any of tho fiendish tortures'prac¬ ticed upon captives by our North Ameri¬ can savages. There are degrees even in this devihsiiness. There are deaths by 8, 10, 20, 50, 100, l,000slices. Thecoo- demned person is fastened to a cross, and tnen the executioner commences at the eyebrows and cuts away such portions of the body aa will not produce sudden death by shock cr bleeding till thero ia little more tissue to hack at, when lie opens the chest and tears out the heart. I was told by an Irish gentleman in the Chinese imperial customs that he once witnessed the slicing execution of a noted pirate, and he described it as hor¬ rible beyond imagination. Another gen- tleman had been present when a poor woman had been sliced to death because her husband had died suddenly, and she had been tortured into a confession of having poisoned him. At other times she had stoutly denied any knowledge of the cause of his death. I^jrever, she had been condemned to this Horrible death, and sho met her fate with a resig¬ nation and bravery which astonished those who saw it. The American whe was present described it as a most horri¬ ble sight, and one that returned to him in fearful dreams.—San Francisco Chron¬ icle. Tlio Journalist and tho Publisher. Ono thing, I fear, must always place journalism at a disadvantage, compared with other professions, such as law, art, medicine, teaching and engineering. By the very nature of thp cas^, the writers for the daily press c^, have little inde¬ pendent actioy. of '/peaking roughly, and speaking tho pres3 as wc find it now in New York, and the other large cities of tho United States, the publisher is everything; the writer is nothing. The most journalist gifted and tho most enlightened der, and, in must of necessity write to or- who very many instances, the man gives the order is tho person whom aa enlightened and patriotic spirit would least willingly obey. This appears to bo unavoidable. Tho man who lias created, bought or inherited a news¬ paper must either control or lose it. It is his; he is the master; no power on earth can nullify his right, and yet he may be a person singularly unfit to wield such an organ. The newspaper is often a mere ap¬ pendage to other enterprises, which the owner deems far more important, and to which the journal bears the combined relation of coiv and cow bell, feeder and advertiser. But the newspaper belongs to him; and all who write for it are, and must be, his obedient servants.—James Parton in The Writer. An Automatic Medicine Dispenser. An American manufacturer of sugar coated piils added to the attractions of an exhibit of his product in London an in¬ genious piece of mechanism, which might have been intended to represent the pharmacist of the future. It was in the form of a cabinet provided with a series of knobs or buttons, each inscribed with tho name of some malady for which a remedy might be asked. The customer puts a coin into a slit and presses tho button calling for the remedy ho requires, when immediately a drawer flics out con¬ taining the article sought. This auto¬ matic dispenser of course makes no mis¬ takes. If tho customer accidentally presses the wrong button, lie alone i3 re¬ sponsible for tho error. Is this really what wo are coming to?—Scientific! American. Honey Plants. All flowers, whether wild or cultivated, aro visited by the industrious bee for honey, and it is not easy to say from what species it derives the most of its sweets Orchards in full bloom are me¬ lodious with their hum, and later on the fields of buckwheat are extraordinarily attractive, so much so, indeed, that honey made principally from this plant is readily distinguished from that made earlier from fruit blossoms, white clover, etc., which is more highly esteemed on account of its finer color and quality.

Griffin is the county seat of Spalding county, situated in west Middle Georgia, with a healthy, fertile and rolling country, 1150 feet above sea level. By the census of 1890, it will have at a low estimate between 8,000 and 7,000 people, and they r.re all of the right sort—wide-awake, up to Ibo times, ready to welcome strangers and anxious to secure de¬ sirable settlers, who will not be any less wel¬ come if they bring money to help build np the town.
