The comet is a wonderfol show and
it takes a power of faith to believe
what the aatronomere/ay about it.—
M£/ofkB wsotqdty fa it hp^solgot
em all up in time yesterday tnbrning
and they wrapped np in shawls and
blankets and I took little Jessie in my
arms and we paraded out beyond the
grove where there wae a clear sight
and penwod it to-onr -satisfaction.—
Tbo little chhps amused us with their
questions, for they haven’t much idea
of infinite distance and we grown
folks got bewildered in trying to take
it all in. One hundred and twenty
millions of miles away is a right good
pieoe and when a body ip traveling
two millions of mile| ‘ a pay it must
make a powerful buzz in the firma
ment and it is a wonder we don’t hear
it like we hear these coal burning lo
comotives, away off in the dead of
nigbt. That comet has. got some big
business on hand, and I would like to
know what it is. I see that one
learned man eaye they furnish tael 1t>
the sun, and this one was badly need
ed right now for the fires werogettitag
low and ono can see the dark spots
where tbo coal was burnt to cinders,
and if more caloric didn’t come soon
from somewhere our people wouldn't
have to go up to the arctic regions to
freeze to death. It is a grand idea to
think of some mighty Vulcan stand
ing away up in the regipns of space
chunking np the old bud’s fires by
throwing comets at him, but still I
would like to know where.tbe old fire
man gets his comets fmd where be
keeps em bid out from mortal eyes. I
could ask as many questions, ,I/refckj
on, as the children asked me, and
know as little about it afterwards.—,
Jessie wanted to know if n hundred
million of miles was as far as across
the ocean, and how many times far
ther it was than to Atlanta* ‘ She
wanted to know how much faster it
traveled than the cars, and said its
tail would make a might pretty broom
for a giant to sweep the sky with.—
Carl undertook to enlighten her, and
told her that Atlanta was just nowhere
to the comet—that the comet was fur
ther off than the sky or ths moon or
a rainbow, or n thousand • pine trees
put on top of one another, and it was
going faster than that flying horsd f r j en ^ #t . j eS80 ,
that papa told us about. Tbo wise
moo say it wont within four hundred
thousand miles of4he sun, and is now
, getting away from it at tbo rate of
two million miles a day. That’s bus
iness. That's furnishing fuel in a hur
ry aud getting away for more with
proper alacrity, but it’s a wonder to
mo it didn’t get its tail, scorched,
wish that nil you city folks could soe
the comet, for its a show that don’t
corns (dong more than once or twice
in a life time, and it never. £dy$rt^
its coming in tho newspapers. City
folks don’t know exactly ,bpw to get
about getting np *t four o’clock in
the morning, and if they did they 1
would find somebody’s house of their
shade treeB in the way and would
have to walk oat a mile or so to get c
fair view of it I suppose they could
get to see it by sitting np all night
and getting on top of the bouse. If
old Vulcan bad bis curtains up and
door keeper and was to charge five
dollars a sight he would make money
and more folks would tarn out than
now for nothing. The comet is
wonderful thing to think about. One
man says that this whole universe is
going to pieces, for it all depends on
fire, and the fires ere fading for want
of fuel and the sun is growing dim
and world after world will drop into
it until they have nil dropped, and af
ter that the suu will dicker out like
dying candle, and we would all be in
the dark if we Irndn’t been burnt up
already before, aud so it becomes us
to be prepared for tbe worst, for t|u#! don* v

to Gideon’s band. I'm not going-to AgFlCUltll7al ImpICXUCZltS,
crow-over effl, for I want em all. to,
come back and let old Georgia be a
nnit for a reform in tbe government
Let' this' bo a white - man’s govern
ment, and quit all this tomfoolery
about negro equality. I don’t care
thing about republican principles
or democratic 'principles, for one is
about os good os the other now, and
since Mr. Stephens uos been elected
Governor, of course the danger of a
monarchy is all over, but what we do
want is a change of rulers. Tbe re
publicans havef had their swing long
enough, and they have stole enough
tb do em a lif* timb, and I want our
people to have a chance at the public
crib. After the demoorats get in pow
er it will take em twenty years to
learn how to steal as much as tbe oth
er side is stealing now, aud it is high
time they wef.O beginning their edu
cation and going into training. Mr.
Clark, the late collector, says it is
good for a, country to have two par
ties pretty equally balanced. Well I
think so too, but it is not good for
one of tbe parties to stay in so long
and steal .so .much that there wont be
any balance left. Tbe democrats
ought to have it now. for about fifteen
years. For tho first ten they wpol£
be pretty caatious through fear if not
through principle and tbe next five
they, would enlarge the borders of
their governments and make ap for
lost time lr and about then the people
ought to rise np end tarn eoa oat and
try a new set. Mr. Clark’s idea is a
good one if it was founded on facts
and kept down rascality, bnt as it
don’t it ia nothing but a romance and
besides, the only two parties that we
have bod in Georgia siuce tbe war or
are likely to have are a nigger party-
end a white man’s party, and if it
suits him to belong to the first ho Is
welcome to his company and his
Bill Aup.
Dr. Wood, of Bishop’s Colloge,
Montreal, has reported numerous
cases in whioh rheumatism has been
Cured, hy ; fasting from four to ten
days: The patients were allowed to
drink freely of wafer and lemonade,
bnt no medicines wore given. Dr,
Wood is inclined to believe that rheu
matism is simply a pliaso of indigos
tion, to be cured by giving rest to nil
tho viscera.
A correspondent asks: What time
of year do tho days begin to shorten ?
When you have a note in bank is the
great annihilator of time. The days
are crowded together in thin layers,
and the nights are like a smear from
a blacking brush.
A minister at Richmond, Va., re
cently swooned while marrying his
old sweetheart to another man. If
his part of the ceremony made him
swoon, wbat nerve tbe man who was
married must have had to stand up
uoder it ?
