A briulvllle Sermon.
Chicago Times.
At out* of our evening entertain
ments Mr. J. L. Dow,N. I*.(Victoria)
. Scotchman of excellent humor,
who is returning from a tour in
America, read us a sermon which
J l( , |,atl taken down, as lie heard it
in headville. The service was in a
theatre; some whisky barrels made
tiu- pulpit. After singing “A Day’s
March Nearer Home,” a hard fea
tured miner rose to address the
I,aril featured congregation:
Friends, the regular preacher has
cone down among the boys who
lir0 working the new carbonate
mines at Gunnison, and I have
lifcii appointed to take liis hand
ami heave it for all it’s worth. To
many of you present it won’t be
necessary to tell you that I’m
kinder new to this business, hut I
don’t believe there’s a rooster in the
camp mean enough to take advant
age of my ignorance and cold-deck
me on the first deal. I have been
reading in this yore book that yarn
about tin* prodigal son, and I will
try to tell you the story. The hook
don’t give no dates, but I reckon it
happened a considerable spell back
in history. It seems the prod’s
father was pretty Hush with stamps,
ami a real good sort into the bar
gain, as he always shelled out freely
when the kid struck him for a
stake, and never bucked at the
size of the pile either, so long as the
hoy heaved in hearty on the ranch
and generally behaved hisself hand-
sum. Hat by-and-by the kid grew
restless and wanted to rustle out
the gravel; so lie got the ol<l man
to ante up in advance of the death
racket and let him go. He no
sooner got his diyvy in his pocket
than he shook the ranch, and spread
himself out to take in some of the
tar-off camps. Well, according to
the book, he had a pay-up time at
first, and slung his coin around as
if he owned the best paying lead
within a thousand miles of Denver.
Hut, iny friends, this game didn’t
last forever. Hard luck struck him
at last, and the prod is fount] in one
of his sober intervals remarking in
a confidential way to one of his
chums: “I say, old pard, I’m bust
ed clean down to the bed rock, and
them’s tlu* cold-blooded facts.”
The book don’t say what the prod
went broke on, but probably lie
steered up against some brace game.
He that as it may, however, he was
so beautifully cleaned out that he
hadn’t a two-bit piece left to go and
eat on. In this condition he struck
a ranch belonging to an old granger
who, taking pity on the poor, busted
prod, gave him a job of herding
hogs. The granger wasn’t a had
aid sample in a general wiry, but lie
was inclined to be kinder mean on
tlu* feed, and so it came that the
prod got so frightfully sharp-set for
a meal he had to go whacks in the
hog trough. You bet the kid who
in Hush times had been boozing
round on the best of everything,
like a silver king or a railroad
monopolist, had now plenty of time
on his hands for doing a tall lot of
thinking, and one day he said to
himself: “I’ll just ding this busi
ness. Why, even the meanest help
in my old governor’s hired service
Me living on square grub, and
plenty of* it, while I’m worrying
Hong here on a shook lunch. I
know what I’ll do—I’ll just skip
luck home to the old man and ask
for a now deal.” Ho away lie went,
'mt he had a hard time reaching
the old ranch, and don’t you forgot
*'• W hen you have plenty of coin,
m y friends, everybody’s pleasant,
Init when you’re on the borrow, you
•lon’t find it so good. Filially he
did strike the familiar trail leading
'Iowa to the old home, and while
crossing some vacant lots the old
man, as the hook puts it, saw him
coining far off. Yes, that old maids
eyes were very dim, but lie did not
'nil to spot the boy afar off.
And what d’ye suppose that prod’s
father did? Did he whistle the
( 'ogs np to chase him off the ranch?
*ou bet ho didn’t. Did lie go and
fake down his shot-gun and wait
'ill he got a good drop on him?
Yo « 'mt he didn’t. No, but I’ll toll
>°u what ho did. lie just waltzed
r mlit out of the gate to meet him,
*md froze to that poor scare-crow
right on tin* spot, and fell to kissing
""'i'u and weeping over him, and
' tiling him his poor, long lost hoy
""til tlu* | )ro ,i got broken all up,
ami cried like a sluice dam when
tlic
Now, it appears the prod’s brother j
was out working with the teams, j
and when he came in lie asked some I
ot tin* help what was the meaning
of tlu* picnic they were having in
side, and when'told the reason he
just got real mad. The old man
hearing of this, went out to him and
said: “Gome in, lad; your brother’s
come back, and we are having a
regular old-fashioned jubilee; now,
you come right along like a good
fellow, and share in the break
down.” But the brother would not
budge, and lie said: “Look here,
dad, I have stuck to the ranch, and
have never transgressed your or
ders, hut it never struck you to
have a picnic of this kind until you
give' it in honor of a loafer who has
disgraced our name.” But, my
friends, you make your bets on it
that the old man had a level head,
and wasn’t easily to he bluffed. He
says: “My son, you say you have,
transgressed my orders, but are you
quite sure that’s so ? I tell you that
you have grievously transgressed
my commandments now by your
unbrotherly and uncharitable be
havior. Learn that I am pleased
by sei vice of mere form, if the heart
is not in accord. You may count
that your service is according to
the letter of the law, but 1 tell you
it don’t till the bushel worth a cent,
so fur as tlu* spirit is concerned.—
The spirit you are showing, my lad,
leads to narrow-mindedness, to big
otry, to intolerance, and to fooling
round and burning folks because
they don’t fix up their formal obser
vances just exactly as you have ar
ranged and you assert must be
right.” And now, friends, it is to
the credit of the brother that he
took his old father’s square talk in
good part, and you bet that old man
was a real thoroughbred—and don’t
you forget it.

Ot'oricin llmlilc.
North Georgia is favored by an
other bonanza. This time it is
marble. For years it lias been
known that a species of white mar
ble existed in Pickens county, but
as it was coarse-grained and soft,
there was but little attention ever
given to it. It could only be used
for a few purposes, and these were
not of a nature to justify the heavy
outlay necessary to get it to mar
ket, as it lay remote from any rail
road or means of conveyance. Its
time has come. Recently the Ma
rietta and North Georgia railroad
opened a market for it, and capital
took hold of it and discovered the
fact that the soft, coarse-grained
marble above referred to was only
a covering for one of the finest
veins of white marble on earth.
Tiie Vermont marbles have long
been used as a substitute, for Ital
ian for many purposes,and the name
of the Vermont Marble Company,
with Governor Proctor as Presi
dent, is known throughout the civ
ilized world. As soon as the rail
road above referred to was extend
ed to the regions where this mar
ble abounds, the attention of that
company was directed to it, and
tiie developments have given such
satisfactory results that quarries
heretofore worthless are selling at
enormous prices. So far those sold
are six miles from the railroad,
while those directly on the lino an*
held at such prices as to exclude a
purchase, in sonic* instances $100,-
000 being asked for a single quarry.
In other instances 7 cents per
cubic foot are being given where
the marble has to be hauled a dis
tance of six or seven miles. The
marble finishes beautifully, and will
rival even the far famed Italian.

Thu Kepudlateil Debt.
Atlanta Constitution.
“Iii what situation does the decis
ion of the Supreme Court leave the
fradulent debt of the State?” asked
a Constitution man of State Treas
urer Speer yesterday.
“The situation is practically un
changed; it was settled before.
The Supreme Court simply announ
ces that a state cannot be sued.
The repudiated bonds have been
denounced as fradulent—have been
outlawed—and the holders have no
recourse.”
“How was the Macon and Bruns
wick case ?”
“The State paid a part of the debt
incurred on account of the Macon
and Brunswick road, but the second
mortgage bonds were pronounced
fraudulent and the State refused to
pay them. The suit just ended was
to compel their payment, but as the
court saw that the State must of
necessity be made a party to the
suit, the decision was against the
plaintiffs, and thus the matter ends,
as tiie law provides that a state
cannot be sued and as a proceeding
to collect the repudiated bonds
would he against the State, they
must ail stand on the same footing
and thus have no chance in court.
These bonds were all repudiated
after a very full and careful investi
gation by a special committee of
the Legislature, and the action of
the Legislature in repudiating them
was ratified by the people. The
matter is now fixed by a clause in
the constitution which prohibits the
payment of any part of the repudi
ated debt.
“Aside from the second mortgage
bonds of the Macon and Brunswick
railroad, there was a considerable
amount of debt repudiated?”
“Yes, aggregating something like
six million dollars. But of course
that will end tiie same way. I sup
pose the State will not be troubled
any more on account oi the repudi
ated debt.”

Danville, Dec. 4.—The grand
jury of the Hustings Court, charged
by Judge Blackwell with the inves
tigation of the circumstances of the
recent riot, after a session of nearly
two days, this afternoon reported
that they had no presentments to
make, and submitted the following,
which was ordered to be recorded:
“It appears to the jury, who have
examined forty witnesses, white
and colored, that on the fid day of
November, in the afternoon of that
day, a light occurred on Main
street between C. D. Noel, white,
and Hence Jawson, colored; that
after the light was over and the
combatants separated by the efforts
of colored policeman, Adams, ii
white man named Lea, and others,
there was a determination on the
part of the assembled crowd of ne
groes to intimidate the whites by
threats and menaces; that the
efforts of policeman Adams, Free
man and Withers, and citizens Cor
bin, Oliver Calloway, colored, and
others, were unsuccessful in prevail
ing upon the crowd of negroes to
disperse; that they persisted in re
maining upon the scene of the fight
and giving expression to remarks
calculated to excite the passions of
the whites; that at last the whites
fired off their pistols in the air, hop
ing thereby to cause the crowd to
disperse; that the negroes did not
then disperse, but rushed upon the
scene from all quarters, advancing
upon the whites withdrawn pistols;
that firing thereupon commenced;
that the whites used their fire-arms
in defense of their lives, which were
in imminent danger, and by their
courage and pluck in standing up
against such odds, saved the lives
of hundreds of people in this city,
and this is the unanimous sense of
the jury.”

afterwards amended and transfer
red into a bill to the equity side of
the court. The suit is for the recov
ery of 3,(KH) acres of land in Wash
ington county. The plaintiff claims
under a trust deed, purporting to
have been made to his wife and
children in 18afi. This deed ap
pears to have been lost, and only
found about four years ago. The
defendant holding under a title ac
quired by purchase under a mort
gage ti. fa., he alleged the deed offer
ed by the plaintiff was a forged one,
and to have been made since the
defendant came into possession of
the property. The records of deeds
of Washington county were burned
during Sherman’s march through
the country, hence the deed is the
only evidence of its execution at
the time claimed for it. The plain
tiffhaving introduced the evidence
of a witness to prove the authentic
ity of the deed, and of the fact that
a deed was recorded, the defendant
introduced the testimony of a wit-
I ness, who says he wrote the.deed
at the instance of the parties plain
tiff—one Bryan, who is dead—and
at the instigation of Mr. James Mi
nor, son-in-law of Mr. Riddel, plain
tiff.
The defendants introduced a num
ber of experts to prove that the
deed is fraudulent, while tiie plain
tiffs, on the other hand, introduced
testimony to sustain the deed. As
the case is now on the equity side
of the court, one of the questions
argued by counsel Monday was as
to the right of having the question
of fact submitted to the jury.—
Judge Locke reserved his opinion
on this question, when the court
took a recess untill 9:30 o’clock
Tuesday morning.
A Hattie wllli burglars.
New London, Conn., Dec. 4.—
The trial of the eight women who
forcibly obtained an entrance into
a school house, at Wetequetoquoek,
was begun yesterday afternoon.—
The evidence showed that on the
?.">tli ultimo, the women went to the
Cleveland, O., December i.—A
special from Shelby, O., gives the
following details of the capture of
the company of burglars there:
Four burglars robbed a safe at New
Washington Thursday night, and
escaped on a band ear to Vernon
Junction, where they threw tiie
hand car into the creek, and went
on to Shelby. The authorities tel
egraphed to Shelby to have the
gang arrested. Marshal Sutter
found the burglars near the hotel,
and ordered them to go with him,
where upon they fired five shots,
two of which struck Sutler, one in
the leg and one in the side. The
marshal then shot one of the bur
glars through the head, killing him
instantly. The others tied towards
the woods, followed by citizens.—
When two miles north of town, one
of the burglars turned and fatally
shot John Longaore, a Bee Line
baggage man. By that time 800 men
w ere in pursuit of the burglars.—
Two miles further on, M. A. Cun
ningham captured Longacre’s mur
derer, and took him to town. Al
most the entire population then
turned out, armed with all manner
of weapons, and greatly excited.—
One of the burglars found tlu* horse
and buggy of a member of the pur
suing party, and started away with
it. Finding the buggy an encum-
berance, he cut the harness, and
attempted to get away on horse
back. After a chase of thirteen
miles, in which this man made two
or throe changes of horses, the last
of which'wus to take a pair of hor
ses and a wagon from a boy whom
lie met in the road, ills last team
side of the room, although the lat
ter was not more than ten feet
long by about eight feet in breadth.
It was a furnished apartment, the
furniture consisting of the regula
tion bedstead, deal table and two
chairs, the rent being 4s a week. It
may be well to mention that those
who let furnished apartments here
abouts give not so much as a week’s
credit. If a lodger agrees to pay,
say os a week, Mr. Rentcollector
calls every night for a sixth part
of that amout, lOd. He will take
no denial. The one simple rule
with him is, “pay up or turn out.”
No matter how late it may be, or
how inclement the weather, if the
lodger has not contrived to scrape
together the necessary tenpence,
the inexorable alternative is, “out
you go,” and the collector padlocks
the door and takes away the key.
Ex-Confederates Dupeil.
A dispatch from Washington
says, the Commissioner of Pensions
has sent the names of nine pension
claim agents to District Attorney
Corkhill for presentation to the
grand jury, for inducing Confede
rate soldiers to tile claims for pen
sions, and taking fees from them.—
The papers in these cases make it
evident that circulars have been
sent through the South designed to
create the belief that ex-Confede-
rates can obtain pensions. In some
cases it is believed that the agents
of the firms here have visited some
sections of the South to procure
such applications. The whole affair
is a fraud, as no such application
can be entertained, and the sole
purpose of the agents is to prevail
upon those they dupe to pay a fee.
Witnesses have been summoned in
these cases. If ex-Confederate sol
diers, or their friends at the South,
will send any circulars they may
have received or any facts within
their knowledge, showing the pay
ment of fees, to District Attorney
Corkhill here, steps will be takcu at
once to punish those agents who
have defrauded tfiem.
lllreil a Muii to Marry Her.
An Erie (Pa.,) telegram to the
Pittsburg Dispatch states that
parties giving their names as
Amelia A Royse, of Cincinnati, and
Clias. Traynor, of Utica, N. Y., were,
married in Erie Saturday morning
by Justice Freeman. The bride was
elegantly dressed and evidently
well educated, while the groom was
quite the reverse in botli particu
lars. She dismissed him immedi
ately on the performance of the
ceremony, and informed the Judge
after the husband’s departure that
she had hired the man to marry her
to avoid saying “Yes” to the man it
it would please and hurt her most
to marry—the only man slio loved.
She said she wished the widest pub
licity given to the marriage.
She paid $20 for the performance
of the ceremony, and left without
explaining particularly why she
was so anxious to place herself be
yond the reach of the only man she
would care to marry. She assured
the judge, however, that “there was
nothing wrong about the matter,
no crime, no despair, no broken
hearts, nothing tragic.”
