This sensation was not removed by food, but, on the contrary, it was increased. After a while the hands and feet became cold and sticky— a cold perspiration. There was a constant tired and lan guid feeling. Then followed a dreadful nervousness, with gloomy forebodings. Finally the patient was unable to re tain any food whatever, and there was constant pain in the abdomen. All prescribed rem edies failing to give relief, a consultation was held, when it was decided that the patient had a cancer in the stomach, and in order to save the pa tient’s life an operation was jus tifiable. Accordingly, on the 2 2d of February, 1883, the op eration was performed by Dr. Vance in the presence of Dr. Tuckerman, Dr. Perrier, Dr. Arms, Dr. Gordon, Dr. Capner and Dr. Halliwell of the Police Board. The operation consis ted in laying open the cavity of the abdomen and exposing the stomach and bowels. When this had been done an examin ation of the organs was made, but to the horror and dismay of the doctors there was no cancer to be found. The pa tient did not have a cancer. 1 When too late the medical men discovered that they had made a terrible mistake; but they sewed the parts together and dressed the wound that they had made, but the poor woman sank from exhaustion and died in a few hours. How sad it must be for the husband of this poor woman to know that his wife died from the effects of a surgical operation that ought never to have been performed. If this woman had taken the proper remedy for Dyspepsia and Nervous Prostration (for this was what the disease really was,) she would have been liv ing to-day. Shaker Extract of Roots, or Seigel’s Cura tive Syrup, a remedy made ex pressly for Dyspepsia or Indi gestion, has restored many such cases to perfect health after all other kinds of treatment have failed. The evidence of its ef ficacy in curing this class of cases is too voluminous to be published here; but those who read the published evidence in favor of this dyspeptic remedy do not question its convincing nature, and the article has an extensive sale. “He loved a woman,” let ns say.

[Graduating essay read by Miss Jennie Burpee, of Newnan. at College Temple com mencement, and published by request.] Beloved classmates: Fifty thous and spectators, in the stadinm, looked down upon the competi tors in the Panathenaic games; This is the record of the grandest ‘he present, the future, look down upon triumph of creative power, “Let there ' U3 ' ^ Q ‘hi® more than Grecian sta- be light and there was light.” The universe sprang from chaos, and an gels listened as the morning stars to gether sang. Mountains towering .to the azure skies, fertile vales slumber- In this more than Grecian sta^ dium, aur spirits have been made ro bust, not for a day, but for immortali ty. This hour begins an important epoch in our life histories. In this our last school-girl reunion, let us ing at their feet, seas reflecting the I P‘ e< ^S e ourselves to cherish the elevat- sublimity of the far-off heavens, were ed P rinci P les and ample views of life the unrivaled features of this beauti ful realm—the earth. Mark the matchless pencilingsof the great artist in crimson, blue and gold upon the sky;—anon, he lets fall the ebon curtain of night, ’broidered with circling worlds. But was physical perfection his most signal triumph? Nay, not so; a hit of clay in his hand becomes the lordly ruler over all his works and bears the resemblance of a god. For what were these endowments given? For aspi rations, for triumphs. All Nature in vites investigation. It bids science gather the shells of the sea-shore for texts and string an amulet of pearls each inscribed with the autograph of God. The rocks say, “We have secrets; give us a tongue.” The forests say, “Hew us down, float us upon the dis tant seas in the interest of progress.” The mountains say, “Search, we have treasures untold.” Steam cries, “I should be the hewer of wood and draw er of water to mankind.” Electricity proclaims, “I have belted the earth, and made all people a mighty brother hood.” Lifeisfull of inspiration. Upon each step of Wisdom’s stairway is written, “Higher, higher." But spiritual grandeur towers unri valed, for Life's grandest victories are gained upon bended knees. When the dark day suddenly settled upon tbe assembled Connecticut Legisla ture, Abraham Davenport in the strength of his integrity said, "Bring in the candles; if it is the day of doom, let us be found at our post.” His mor al sublimity gave to history a model which our honored president and his faithful faculty have instilled into our hearts. We have risen upon a higher plane. Shall we not nobly sustain ourselves ? Shall we not prove to our Literary F'ather, his hand has not lost its cunning? Shall we lose sightof our motto, “Dare to be Wise?” We bear each of us as a sacred trust the good name of our reverenced Al ma Mater, who stands with proud con fidence saying, “My children will nev er forget the one who has tenderly blessed them.” We are fresh young spirts, trained in the tactics of literary warfare; let us buckle on the well- tried armor and stand ready for the “close up” when others shall have fallen from the ranks. F'rom this Elim, with its wells of water and spreading palms, we go out strong for our duties. Be the spirits the times demand. Do life’s plain, common work as it comes, certain that daily duties and daily bread are the sweetest things of life. Oman than to know beautiful elegiac poem which attract- Comfort for the Sorrowing. Thank God, there are sorrows that may be helped; burdens that may be borne for others by us. To this work let us give heart and hand, rejoicing if the dross of our selfishness be con sumed, and tbe gold of our sympathy refined, even in the crucible of suffer ing. Unspoken sorrow is perhaps the saddest. The griefs we may not tell gnaw deep. These are generally “liv ing troubles,” that eat to the heart core. God is their refuge, their pres ent help. Even they msv be trans muted to blessings if they drive us to the mercy seat and make our walk with God closer. . The secret sorrow may be whispered in the ear of a sytn pathizing Savior.

Its echoes have rolled down the whole course of Time and its faintest rever berations charm and vivify. From the lowest to the higest vocations in life, it is the regnant power. In agricult ure, trade and science it is the auto crat that controls the millions. Able pens are well employed in describing the triumphs of American arms and genius.

We may drift from your beloved eyes, but we well know we are Some unknown and sympathetic read- er wrote to her from New York, say ing, “Come North and dwell with us, and do not bury your talents beneath your cypress wreaths.” But now the young authoress has fallen on better days. Thevoiceofcommendationmore often waits on the early efforts of aspir ing authors. Bentbaursays of women, “That she rules the world with the whole power of a despot.” I am by no means a “woman's rights woman,” but I do say she is (he only material which defies decay and survives death. God has crowned her tbe cen tral figure and absolute monarch over this sacred kingdom, and she attunes tbe very chords strung by Divinity Himself. God assigned to woman the grand est mission that He ever assigned to anyone. Borne say, “Teach her enough geography to know where each room in the house is, and enough chemistry to keep the pot boiling.” Tnliuite narrowness!—incredible pusillsnimi- ty! Such men are so blinded by ic- norance and infuriated by jealousy that they cannot see that where moth ers are educated man is necessarily elevated. The earnest plea for man's education equally pleads for that of : woman. This diabolical fanaticism i about so-called “woman’s rights” j flourished for a while under bloomer- i ism, shocked decent propriety, and I now only amuses the world. Those who would cut her loose from her own sphere, thrust her upon the friction and conflicts of public life, make her a political power at the ballot box, and a scrambler for cilice; also, those who go to the other extreme and quote from the fiendish poet, “That her mission is only to suckle fools and chronicle small beer!”—all such need tbe lines of Schiller: “Honor to wo man ! To her it is given to garden the earth with the roses of heaven.” No, sir; man’s and woman’s mission | j never conflict. The joint influence of the heat and light perform oae work. One is useless without the other; so the union of man’s and woman’s dis tinct powers consummate God’s ideal of humanity. Some say mind makes the man; others, necessity; still oth ers, manners;—but “home” makes the man, for there the mother bedews the heart with affection, quickens the intellect and and asserts the rights of noble character for everlasting su premacy. Woman’s greatest mission is to educate nobly; hence, she must be always educatingand elevating her self. Extra mental culture is not ab solutely necessary, yet it is a good help; cultured intellect, combined with a woman's Christ-like love and untiring constancy beautifies home, brightens life, plants the seeds from which enlightened nations spring, and did not He tread the wine-press alone Sorrow is sometimes a sanctuary, When God has come very near with His loviDg chastenings, he has been known to recompense contrite cbil dren by manifestations of His good ness and greatness, filling their hearts with indescribable peace. Stripped of all earthly joy, they rise above the earthly, and seem at the very gates of heaven. Shut out frdm common cares, the scales of unbelief and world liness fall from their eyes, and, with transparent vision, they view the heaven. Blessed are they that mourn thus in sacred seclusion. It is a very holy of holies to the heart. It is state of exaltation from which one dreads a return to the routine of ac tive life, and to which one recurs in after days with a feeling akin to re gret that it can be known but once. Child of sorrow, shrink not from God’s discijiiine. There is no sweeter Chris tian experience than sanctified sor row. Our Saviour was made perfect through suffering. Is the servant greater than his Lord? If we are strangers to it here, how can we be made meet for the inheritance of the saints in that land where sorrow and sighing shall flee away? to-day it is the mighty Arcbimedian lever which is lifting heathen supersti tion from people who are glutted with ignorance and bleeding with barbarity. The old legend of the forty-year sleep er is no idle myth. Thousands of our race are sleeping and dreaming their lives away. History proves, beyond a doubt, that no nation ever fell ex cept where corruption pervaded the home. The grandest poem imagina tion ever conceived testifies to this; for what was the mystic power which nerved- the Greeks through ten years’ siege around wind swept Illium? It was that upon the home bond depend ed the nation’s life blood. France holds up her tattered banner of revo lution, upon which we read in letters of clotted blood, “The sacred precincts of home were made the haunts of vice.” Common Honesty. This seems to be an age of specula tion. There are many forms of what is now called speculation that are nothing but forms of gambling, and that lead directly to thieving and swindling.. There is a demand fer common hon esty in every part of the laud. The pulpit and the press need to preach it, and the schools and heads of families need to teach it every day, The ideas of many reputable appearing people as to the difference between “mine and thine” are very illy defined in early youth, and the thirst for wealth in maturer years and the powers of ac quisitiveness tend to make them ob scure indeed. Money and property are not the greatest of earthly blessings. A clear conscience and an upright character are acquisitions that wealth cannot buy, and that preclude tbe wronging of any human being. The pauper who has integrity has a greater and more imperishable possession than if with out integrity he could duplicate the bank accounts of all the Rothschilds. Yet it is the great popular error of the day that tbe chief objects in life are to accumulate money and achieve fame. A proportion of the human race subordinate nearly everything to the attainment of these objects and fail in the end. The comparative few who succeed have their labor for their pains. Wealth and power are found to be cloying and unsatisfactory, and the cares of the rich and great are far greater than those of the poor and ob scure. Those who in early life are taught to appreciate the true value of' honesty and of character are very apt to have their feet directed in the paths that lead to contentment and happiness. The Colored Vote. Baltimore Suu. Senator IngaUs is dissatisfied at the breach made in the color line in soms of the States of the South. He is quoted in the Boston Herald, as saying re cently: “I have no hesitation in say ing that granting the right of suffrage to the colored people has proven an absolute and unqualified failure.” This confession from so thorough a radical Republican as Senator Ingalls is sig nificant of his disgust at the change in the colored vote that the latter South ern elections have shown. They have not been so strongly manifested in Virginia as In States further to the South, but it is evident that Senator Ingalls very clearly sees that the Re publican party South is in danger of disintegration by the defection of a considerable portion of its colored al lies, and that tho “absolute and un qualified failure” of the reconstruction policy lies in the fact that by grant ing the right of suffrage to the colored people it haB largely increased the number of Southern Democratic rep resentatives in Congress over and above what it was before these newly created citizens swelled the popular vote. So long as the colored people could be organized into Republican clubs and led by a few white Republi can leaders like a flock of sheep to the polls, aud carpet-baggers and rene gades by their help wore in control of the several State Governments, Sen ator Ipgalls was perfectly satisfied that granting tbe right of suffrage to the colored freec’men was a wise poli cy. It was only when they had got ten over the fear that was sedulously instilled into them that they would be remanded back into slavery if the Democrats obtained possession of the Government that they began to think for themselves and to act independ ently of Republican dictation. Now that they have learned that their free dom is quite as well assured to them under Democratic as under Republican control, it is not at all strange that while they were always ready to ask the advice of their own people in all matters outside of politics, they should now be ready, to a steadily increasing extent, to follow their advice in poli- ti#j also. .. 1*5 u< ? t st ,’ as some have thoi Aot dark oblivion’s emoty naught * Tls only natures linai strife, Tis only launching into life.” Puckett Station, Ga.

Re- Don’t Print That. Boston Herald. A prominent newspaper publisher in this city, who has gained fame also in the literary world, once told me that he considered it an affront for anyone to say to him: “Now, don’t print that in your paper,” in the course of any conversation held in his presence. I feel like echoing the same opinion. Certain news is entirely legitimate, no matter where heard or obtained, but a | newspaper man respects private af- | fairs and personal feeling just as much as anyone else if he is a man of prin- j ciple. To be thought differently of al- i ways reminds me of a story of the ; musician and eminent surgeon who ! met one evening at a social entertain- j ment. The surgeon said to the musi cal genius: i “Of course you have brought your 1 violin?” “No, I have not,” said the musi cian. “But are you not going to play or do something to add to the entertainment of Mrs. Blank’s guests?” asked tho surgeon. “I had not thought of it,” said the musician, “but if you will cut off a leg I will play something.” That musician was a wise man. I Take Care of Your Timber. Forestry Gazette. The appended extract from the nat ional Department of Agriculture ought to bring about a suddeq halt in tho useless waste of timber, and those in favor of extra fencing should read it carefully and change their tactics: “The forestry division of the United States Department of Agriculture have issued a circular to those inter ested in educational matters, request ing information as to the observance of arbor day in tbe various States. In the circular they state: The forest area of the United States seems to be less than 150,000,000 acres, of which more 10,000,000 acres are yearly de stroyed by fire, and to supply the needs of fuel, tics, lumber, etc., it Is estimated that certainly not less than 10,000,000 acres are denuded, altogeth er an area of over 00,000 acres per diem, the product representing a value of more than $700,000,000 per annum. The consumption of the forests in sup plying our railroads with ties is enor mous and increasing with the rapid extension of the roads. It is estimated that the building of existing roads has taken tho available timber from an area as large as tho States of Rhode Island and Connecticut, and that to keep them in repair by placing de cayed ties with new ones requires an nually the yield of more than 500,000 acres. In 1853 the forest area of Ohio was 55.27 per cent, of ’be area of the State. In 1881 it wis but 22.53 per cent. A similar rapid consumption of the forests has taken place in other States. In many cases the flow of streams has been lessened or made ir regular by the removal of the forests from their vicinity. good many others; it would save The latter I can regulate; theformer I can assist you in. 1 hare on hand a large and well selected stock of SPRING GOODS, and they most be sold.

Pittsburg, Pa., is shipping shovels to Australia and successfully compet ing with the same goods of English make. Pittsburg makes up for this by selling the very same shovels to the American farmer for double the price it charges the Australian. They are able to do this because the tariff shuts off competition and creates a monopoly of the home market. Sin ger’s company sell its American made sewiDg machines in London and Liv erpool f»r one half the price it charges its customers in the United States. Does anybody see where the profits to the farmer, mechanic and laboring man come in under our prohibitory tariff? The differences in price for which the articles are sold in the for eign and home market does not go in to the United States Treasury to lessen taxation, but into the pockets of the manufacturer. This tariff simply leg islates the money out of the pockets of one and puts it Into the pockets of an other. It is .worse than highway rob bery. It is legislative robbery and a legalized system of plundering the masses of the people for the benefit of the large monopolies and manufact urers. To-day you can buy a sewing machine in London, made in the United States and exported there, with freight added, for $20 or $25, while the same machine, made in the same United States factory, is sold here in Pensacola for $40, and cannot be purchased for less.
