BEARING FRUIT ALREADY
Debtors who thought their obliga

fillment of mother Sbipton’s* prophe

no more faith in prophecies.
The Albany News and AdvrrtutT
cleverly advises tho young men farm

Speaking of the fruits of tho Cotton
Exposition, an exobango says:
Tho Atlanta Cotton Exposition is
already bearing practical and valua
ble fruits. Up to Monday last twen
ty-nino of the exhibitors had given no
tieo of their intention to establish
houses or factories in Atlanta. These
compriso mainly small manufactories,
bnt each of them will succeed, and Di
rector General Kimball is confident
that during tho next year there will
be fifty additional factories, large and
small, established in Atlanta, directly
because of tho Exposition. Exhibit
ors are astonished at the sales they
have made. Tho profits of a wind
mill proprietor from sales made du
ring tho Exposition nro placed by him
at $10,000, whilst a firm eft-.- iged iu
tho manufacture of hnrv- * . place
their profits from sales at S-v. it); and
so with cotton planters, v> ... otton-
cloaners, etc. The e say
that they never have att. mm-d «n ex
hibition at wbich the sales were so
largo. This applies more especially
to makers of and dealers in machin
ery that will aid in the indastriol re
cuperation of tho South. It is thought
thnt the amount of improved machin
ery sold in the South within the next
year or two will be enormous.

Of late years homicides have bo-

Human life is too precious to bo
sacrificed for some littlo whim, and
wo purposo to place tho blame for this
state of things whero it properly be
longs—to the judges ami juries of the
country. Georgia is not alone in this
torriblo condition. It prevails from
Maine to Texas. Tho press every
where should come out plainly nnd
cry aloud for hemp. Only a few days
terriblo tragedy took place in

zens of the county was shot from his
borso by a man who is highly respect

the heading of tho editorial—there is
a demand for hemp iu Georgia.

VOLUNTARY STARVATION.
Alexandria (Vs.) Gazette, Jan. 5.
Miss Cbloe Ann Yiolett, who start
ed out on a starvation fast, under the
belief that she was obeying a com
mand of the Lord, on the 5th of No
vember last, died at the residence of
her mother, on Queen street, last
nigty about twelve o’clock, having
lived without taking food of any kind
for sixty days. The case is a remark
able one,'from the fnct that it is the
longest fast known. There is a well I
authenticated case of a Indy in New
pg forty-seven days, dying
ition of that time.
at tho expiration of that time. Miss
Violett, although emaciated, retaiued
consciousness, and tnlked freely—in
deed, cheerfully—up to the time of
her death. She was impressed with
the belief that her time bad come, and
that the Lord desired, yea, command
ed her to abstain from ull kinds of
food; she believed further that to die
fasting woald be a safe passport to
heaven, and the gates of the golden
city would be thrown wide open to
her, but to die iu any other way would
be disobedience to the command of
the Lord, for which she would have
to suffer in the next world.
Neuralgia,
■ Gainesville, Ga., Jan. 7,1880.
I have suffered terribly for eight
months with neuralgic pains all over
my head. Two months ago I took a
bottle of Neurotic, and am now en
tirely well. I can say from experience
the medicine cannot be surpassed, nor
do I believe it has its equal for the re
lief of pain. It will cure beyond a
doubt. I feel truly thankful that my
attention was called to this great rem
edy. I hope that all who suffer will
give it a trial. Respectfully,

A little girl in Mobile died from the
Tho Augusta Chronicle and Corusti-
tulionalisl, speaking of sensational
journalism, thus discourses;
Tho newspapers aro, in a moasnro,
tho odueators of the great majority of
onr young people. How necessary,
therefore, that tho fountains from
which they drink should bo puro and
hoalthy l Tho unclean and immoral
newspapers of tho country are in some
measure responsible for the growth of
crime. The people that are daily fed
by the daily recital of tho most horri
ble crimes aro fortunate indeed if they
escape tho moral leprosy bred by euch
vile and pcstilontial stuff. It shocks
the moral sense of tho staid and con
servative man; how injurious must it
bo to the young and innocent, whoso
minds are easily impressed and per
verted ? There is nothing more inju
rious to the minds of the young than
impure and sensational books. But
thousands now read newspapers where
one reads a book. How important
then to tho morals of young people
and tbo well being of society that the
nowspaper which is a daily visitor at
tho fireside should bo free from im
morality.
