FROM SHADOW'S J N.
I learn as tlu* years roll onward
And leave the past behind,
That much \ have counted sorrow
Hut proves that our God is kind;
That many a fl >wer I longed tor
Had hidden thorn ot' pain.
And many a rugged by path
Lid to fields of ripened grain.
The clouds but cover the sunshine,
The? cannot banish the sun;
And the earth shines out the brighter
When the weary min is done
We must stand in the deepest shadow
To see the clearest light;
And often from wrong’s own darkness
Comes the very strength of right.
The sweetest rest i* at even.
Alter a wearisome day,
When the heavy burden of labor
Has been borne from our hearts away
And those who have never known sorrow
Cannot know the infinite peace
That falls on the troubled spirit
When it sees, at last, release.
We must live through te dreary winter
If we would value the spring;
And the woods must be cold and silent
Before the robins sing.
The flowers must be buried in darkness
Before they can bud and bloom;
And the sweetest and warmest sunshine
Comes after the storm and gloom.
So the heart from the hardest trial
Gains the purest joy of all,
And from lips that have tasted sadness
The sweetest songs will fall.
For as peace comes after suffering,
And love is reward for pain,
So, after earth is heaven—
And out of loss the gain.
A Disquisition on Some of Solomon’s
Mystical Writings.
Those who are without the airi of a
learned commentator, will often fiud
himself in chaos and confusion, in at
tempting to grapple with many of the
unexplained pharses employed in some
of his writings. We propose to inquire
for the legitimate meaning of the
world’s wisest roau’s mystical language
in the closing chapter of Ecclesiastes.
Having gone down the way of all the
earth, until I have been made to real
ize iu part, the truth of his predictions,
1 am led to contemplate the wouderfu!
knowledge of this extraordinary mau.
Me sets out in the commencement of
this chapter by saying, ‘ Remember
thy creator iu the day 9of youth, be
fore the evil days come when thou shall
say I have no pleasure in them.” Thus
far, we are not entangled in anything
obscure or difficult to comprehend.
But let us movp on. 2 While the sun
or the light, or the moon, or the stars
be not darkened nor the clouds return
after the rain. 3 Iu the day when the
keepers of the house shall tremble, aud
the strong meu shall bow themselves,
and tie grinders cease, because they
are few, aud those that look out. of the
windows he darkened. 4 And the
doors shall be shut iu the streets when
the sound of the grinding is low, and
he shall rise up at the voice of the bird,
and all the daughters of music shall he
brought low. It would be a pleasant
task to go back and take up this beau
tiful lesson, and explain its meaning to
many, who do not rightly understand
the lesson. But I would necessarily
occupy more space than the columns
of The Weekly can afford. I am
writing on this line, because there are
a Dumber of The Weekly’s readers,
who are taking the paper, expressly to
see and read our random scribbiiogs.
If allowed to run out on this instruc
tive Hue, my long study of the scrip
lures would enable me to impart as
much, if not more information, gather
ered from the Bible, than any other
writer whose scribbling* are published
in our county paper. But our family
paper is like our family dining table,
there is only so much room, and the
smaller members of the family are not
to be scroughed out by the larger ones.
But the little dogs that gather up the
bones and scraps for their share, doubt
less prefer the filliug of the table, with
those members of the household, who
leave the most meat ou the bones, and
tht largest pile of scraps that fall from
the table. We ask our readers to
overlook our overmuch boasting. It is
said every dog must wag his own tail
or he wont get it wagged. It is so in
polly ticks certain. Should the read
ers of The Weekly or a respectable
minority of them have any desire to
read our explanation of the meaning of
this mystical lesson, written by King
Solomon, it will be fortbeomiug before
the blooming of the summer flowers,
if life and health should last, and my
paper not all exhausted. This writing,
only on one side of the paper, levies a
hundred per ceut tax on the scribbler,
writing for publication or the waste
i basket, with the chance# all in favor of
the basket. W. T. G.

THE WORST EVER KNOWN.
THE WHOLE COUNTRY FROZEN
UP HARD BY THE LAST DIG
COLD WAVE.
Palin lieach, Fla., the Only Point
Where the Mercury Was Above
Freezing Point.
New York, February B.—The great
snow storm that raged iu this vacinity
today was worse than that memorable
blizzard of March 12 15, 1888, in three
ways—iu wind, temperature aud area
affected. Only iu suowfall was the
storm of 1888 greater than today'*.
The wind today averages sixty miles
an hour against fifty iu the blizzard of
1888; the tempralure today hoversd
above zero, while in 1888 it was 5
above; five aud a half inches of suow
fell to day, against two feet then.
In the area of the storm, however,
is the greates difference Doted. Th*
blizzard today swept almost the entire
couutry, instead of a mere radius of
400 miles around New York then cov
ered.
The storm swept down on the city,
early last night and by this morning
was iu full possession. It did not set
tie dowu softly aud quietly iu uice, big
flakes. On the coutrary, it was driven
along with bliudiug force by a furious
northwest gale of bitter coldness, iu
minute particles that seemed to be cov
ered with sharp points, like the ends of
needles and stung the faces of the be
lated pedestrians as they toiled along
through the drifts. It was so dry and
light that it wag piled up in great heaps
and ridges iu every sheltered point, for
wherever the gale bad full play it
9wept the streets aud sidewalks clean.
Under these conditions it was no
wouder that this city was at sixes and
sevens today. Suow was drifted high
in the streets, traffic on surface aud el
evated lines was impeded, tanks and
pipes were frozen, persons are overcome
by the cold and frost-bitten noses, ears
aud hands were plentiful.
The Narrows were gorged with ice,
and it was impossible for any -craft, big
or little, to navigate there without tak
ing big risks
Traffic on the different ferries was
seriously impeded. Both the North
aud East rivers were filled with huge
masses of drifting ice, aud the utmost
care had to be exercised iu taking the
boats across.
Late in the afternoon the Hamilton,
South Wall street aud Thirty ninth
street ferries stopped running on ac
count of the ice.
INTENSE COED AT WASHINGTON.
Washington, F> bruary B.—A day of
intense cold and discomfort, heightened
by a driving gale, has been followed by
a night quite as frigid and windy. The
Potomac, from the Maryland to the
Virginia shoies, is for a considerable
distance down the river a strong aud
compact field of ice.
AT SOUTHERN rOINTS.
For the second time in the history
of Galveston the bay froze over. The
first time was in January, 1886, and
since then the themomeb-r never fell
so low as it did today, when it stood 15
degress above zero, which was one
point lower than yesterday. Millions
of fish were frozeu and the jetties and
reefs along the water’s edge are lined
with them. Thousands of the fish
were gathered up by the poor. The
bay did not freeze as completely as in
1886.
Frost at Mobile was the severest on
record save iu January, 1886 The
mercury dropped to 11.8 degrees at
daylight, this morning. The day was
calm and sunshiny aud very cold for
this latitude. It moderated some by
nightfall. There was no chance for
truck to escape the effects of the severe
freeze and farmers are much discour
aged. In yesterday’s blow the steamer,
| Pioneer, in the lower bay dragged un
j til the cables parted aud she lost two
auchors. She went ashore on the
beach at Fort Morgan, but she was
later pulled off by the tug Nimrod and
towed to a safe anchorage. Ice formed
on the shores of the bay ezteading out
fifty to 100 feet.
FLORIDA NIPPED AGAIN.
Jacksonville, Fla., February B.
! (Special.)—The only place on the
main land of the United States where
the mercury was above freezing point
at suurise today was Palm Beach, on
Lake Worth. There it was 35 degrees
above zero. At Key West it was 54
degrees, but that city is nearly two
hundred miles from fihe main land.
Tampa showed a temprature of 22 de
grees above, and the following special
. from 'here chronicled an unprecedent-
ed event :
“Snow is falliug steadily and has
been ever siuce daylight. The ground
is partly covered in places and drifts
are to be seen nearly one inch thick
against walls aud other obstructions.
Ihe snow fell nntil 9:30 o'clock when
the suti shown out clear aud melted
what had falleu.”
Iu this city the tempraUre fell to
14 above zero, the same as recorded
during the freeze of December last.
Nine men out of every ; tea agree
that the trees are raised beyond
hope and the vegetable aad strawber
ry crops are a total lost. Ybe aggre
gate loss is variously estimated from
five to tau million dollars. The ouly
mau who takes a hopeful view of the
situation ia Captain J. T. Tucker of
the National Bureaa of .Labor aud
Statistics, whose special field is Florida
He said tauight : “I take no stock in
the idea that the orange trees are gone
by the board. I kuow in aorne locali
ties they had beguu to put oat buds
aud that last night’s freeze will nip the
tender growth, but theaa %re by no
means general At Tamps the trees
were patting out when I was there,
but in most places they are dormant
aud when the scarce baa ksowu itself
away you will fiud that there was too
little sap iu the trees to fnake the
freeze fatal.”
DEATH DUE TO COLD.
Brunswick, Ga , February; 8 —The
blizzard struck Brunswick yesterday
afternoon aud has not abated*; any to
day. The cold aud wind felt is
worse than in the December freeze.
Ouly two deaths have been reported as
being caused directly by it uj| to the
present writing. They were .two ne
gro oystermen, who were iu an open
boat aud failed to reach town. There
were four men in two boats, fhen the
blow first started and only two reached
the docks, the others giving out in mid
stream, being unable to pull |trther.
Cartersville, Ga., February 8. —The
weather to lay at this place waft so cold
that business was practically suspended
and the public schools were dismissed.
The thermometer registered
above zero at 6 o'clock this jamming.
It is the coldest spell kuown here in
years.
Auburn, Ala., February B.—lt
sn iwed here yesterday from 8 to 1
o’clock. The coldest weather of the
season was last uight. The Thermom
eter was 3 degrees above aero. It was
8 degrees above on December 28th at
this place.
Griffin, Ga., February B.—The ther
mometer registered aero here this morn
ing for the first time in many years.
Wright’s pond is frozen over and early
in the day skaters were on the ice, but
it is hardly thick enough to be safe.
Forsyth, Ga , February B.—The
thermometer dropped to 6 degrees
above zero here last uight. A strong,
bitter cold wind has been blowing for
two days. The superior court has ad
jourried until the cold wave passes and
all business is almost at a standstill.
Fiuit farmers thiuk this cold weather
augers a good fruit crop this year.
Some in this section who have inter
ests in Florida are beginning to think
that Monroe couuty, with cotton at 6
cents, is a better investment than an
orange grove.
Athens, Ga., February B—The
thermometer here went to on# degree
below zero this morning about 4 o’clock-
Down at Gerger’s steam laandry the
escaping steam froze before it reached
the ceiliug of the room and fell back in
a regular snowstorm. This weather is
the severest known here iu twenty
years

Suwuuee Springs, Fla.
No place in the United States has
become more famed in song and story
than the Suwiuee river. That pnpu
lar song, “Way Down Upon de B’wa
nee Ribber” has foun 1 i s way into
the hearts of the people, ami all that
pertaius to the region of the “Old
Folks at lL,me” has peculiar interest,
aud all that has been written and sung
has failed to adequately describe the
picturesque beauty of this stream,
whi-se wine colored waters swiftly flow
betweeu high bluffs, shaded with over
hauging oaks and cypress, draped with
gray moss. Its weird aud mystic beau
ty has always been an attraction, and
the region through which it flows was
a favorite hunting ground with the In
diaus whom the Spaniards met when
they discovered Florida. It was to
Ponce de Leon that the Aborignes told
the story of a spring whose waters
were so potent that they secured to
those who bathed in and drank of them
rejuniviuation aud longevity. What
the Spaniard vainly sought for was
found by those who followed him, and
what was once considered a poetical
fiction is considered by many who have
tested the healing quality of its waters
a wonderful reality, and no doubt ex
ists iu their niiuds that Suwanee Springs
are the vertabie waters described as
the “Fountain of Youth.”
Suwanee Springs buret forth in a
bold stream on the bank of the Suwa
nee river, uear the crossing of that
stream by the S F. A W. Railway.
Adjoining them ii an imposing modern
hotel, one of the handsomest of the
many superb hotels for which Florida
is noted. A park, such as might excite
the envy of an Knglish nobleman, sur
rounds the handsome structure, and un
der the great outstietcliing boughs of
the mighty oaks neat cottages have
been constructed for the benefit of those
who prefer the privacy of a separate
roof, Bath houses of the most ap
proved plan afford the visitor a private

Suwanee is by no means solely a

Editor Graham Forrester, of the
Richland Paper answers a correspond

ceived by The Paper the other day.
Ihe writing was evidently feminine.
\\ by, dear girl, a nice quiet hug in

(arable iu every reßprct. Hugging bv
music is a snare and delusion, lie
sides, when you take it that way every
other fellow who can ‘shake his feet’
a little can come in ou the same terms.
This is from a masculine standpoint
It strikes The Paper, little lady, that
such nice girls as you must be—if
you're obliged to be hugged at all—
would much prefer the old fashioned
way to hugging before an assemblage of
people. The Paper does’ut consider
a little scraping on a fiddle or a little
drumming ou a piano as sufficient
license for a man to hug a lady.”
—A drummer—and a drummer, you
kuow, never lies—told us yesterday of
how a preacher tested (he effects of
hard timet on Iris congregation. At
the conclusion of one of hit sermons,
he said: “Let everybody iu the house
who are paying their debts stand up.”
Distantly every man, woman and child,
with one exception, arose to their feet.
Iho preacher Beated the crowd aud
then said: “Let every man who is not
paving his debts stand up. The excep

of the bench iu front of him. “How

“that you are the only mau in this
largo congregation who is unable to

The habit of using profane langaugc

I hat any rational creature should so
far forget what is due to his personal
dignity as to use his lips for the utter

passes comprehension. Still stranger

foolhardy as to tl us insult the majesty
