3Ehq Dqrald and ^Ucqrtisor. Newnan^ Ga., Friday, October 7tfl, 1887. First Year of the War. _ War correspondence was often a se rious task, being accomplished under many difficulties. After any engage ment, whether big or little, the corre spondents had the greatest trouble to ob tain correct information from the forces that had taken part in it. During the first year, and more, of the conflict, many minor officers of the regular army despised the volunteers, and few took pains to conceal their feeling. They seemed unwilling to give them any credit, and the same injustice prevailed to a certain degree among the volunteer commands. When Why Tarbox Howled. Lewiston (Me.) Journal. Look at that Maine individual over there in the red flannel shirt which is not even on speaking terms with soap. You might not think from a casual ol- servation that he has any peculiarities whatever, hut the other day he came down with a terrible toothache—an ache that reared and kicked and “buck Professional <£ar5s.

Then questioning some other brigade or division, they would declare the honors of the day belonged to them, and would deny the truth of the previous re]K>rt specifically and emphatically. Thus, an Ohio brigade would assume to have done everything, and to have saved an Indi ana brigade from being cut to pieces; while an Indiana brigade would make the same assumption for themselves, and disparage the troops of the neighboring state. The same was true of Iowa and Wisconsin, of Michigan and Minnesota troops. Each command had turned the tide of strife, and covered itself with glory, so that there was very little left for the remainder of the army to achieve. The West Pointers had no faith in the volunteers, come from where they might. They not infrequently disputed Iheir cour age; and when they did not, they pro claimed their ineompcfcency. War was an art, a science; how could novices he expected to acquire it without study and experience? Regulars and volunteers corrected in time this vicious habit. With their in crease of military knowledge, they l>e- ■came more intelligent and more tolerant: they understood themselves and others better. In truth, the first two years were little else Ilian a series of experiments; they served as a sort of training school for learning the trade of war.—Junius Henri Browne in Lippincott’s. iiuic , Will practice in all the Courts and give ed” all within thirtv seconds till this prompt attention to all business plac-rU in his fO an Wltmn tnuxj set.onu., . hands Examination or title*, writing deeds world ceased to have any attractions mortgages, contracts, etc., will receive spe- e , ^ntortoinlmr it ’ eial attention.

The proprietor of a hardware store in close proximity to this dentist was standing in the door of his store that afternoon when he heard a most terri- | ble and ear-splitting shriek proceeding from the office of the man of teeth. He had become accustomed to moans and subdued exclamations from that quarter, but never had he heard such bellowing as now pierced the air. His curiositv was so thoroughly aroused that a little later on he walked into the dentist’s office and said: “V horn have you been butchering.over here? I never heard such a yell in all my life.” “Oh,” replied the extractor of molars, “that was old John Tarbox, from T . He had a tooth out.” “Had a tooth out!” replied the visit or, “well, I should think so, and it must have come mighty hard to fetch such a roar as that.” “Oh, dear, no,” said the dentist, “he didn’t make that noise when I pulled the tooth. It was afterward.” “Afterward ?” “Why, yes,” was the reply, “the booth came easily enough. The timi L. M. FARMER, Attorney at Law, Newnan, Ga. (Office over First National Bank.)

At 11:4/) the bugle calls the cooks to the galley, and at noon the sailor gets his dinner. The arrangements are much the same as on the training ship. The mess never exceeds twenty, and is in charge of a petty officer, who is responsible for the mess traps. There are two cooks, one in each watch, and the boys are divided among the messes and have to do most of the cleaning and polishing, it being the watch below’s duty to keep things straight. Let us take the Minotaur on a boiled lu'ef day. The galley is a master piece of compactness, in which every inch of heating space is utilized. On one side the cooks are standing for their meat, which is picked out of a copper with .a huge three pronged fork and ticked’off by the steward as it is dropped into the mess tin. The soup comes pour ing out of a tap about two inches in diameter into a half tub that may hold some .forty gallons, from which it finds its way into the cans, one for each mess. As the meat is scored off, so is .the soup. A sailor’s victualing allowance is a liberal one. lie has each day a pound and a quarter of biscuit or a pound and a half of soft bread, two ounces of sugar, one ounce of chocolate, a quarter ounce of tea. When fresh provisions can be had—which is always when in port, and for at least two days afterwards—lie has a pound of fresh meat and half a pound of vegetables. When he is at sea lie has a pound of salt pork or salt beef, or three- quarters of a pound of preserved meat and certain quantities of split peas, flour, suet, raisins, rice, or preserved potato, de pendent on circumstances, all having in terchangeable values. Sometimes lie may have mixed vegetables, or dlioll, or even calavances, which are a kind of bean. In some ships he has coffee at about 9 o’clock, but then he has to pay for it himself.—New York Graphic. J. S. POWELL, Attorney at Law, Newnan, How a Woman Benches Conclusions. In close connection with this more delicate physical constitution of the woman is the fact that her emotional nature is more keen, her sensibility more quick, her passions more violent, her in stincts more imperious, and less submis sive to necessary limitations, than in the man. This strongly rooted sensibility in women is the cause of their characteristic persistency in all matters that depend in any considerable degree on sentiment. It is in vain to combat sentiment with reasons. A woman of strong passion and fine sensibility will hold by her in stincts, anil leave your arguments to float, and in so doing may, in not a few cases, lie right; hut if the case is one in which cool judgment, and not keen feel ing. is to decide, she will probably he Chaplain Hall Writes the Following lte- markable Letter. Albany, Ft. Y.. Express. For many years liiv wife had been the victim of nervous dyspepsia, of the chronic, distressing and apparently in curable type from which so many of lier sex suffer, languish and die. It was all the worse because the tendency to it was inherited. She had been under the systematic treatment of many of the best physicians in New York and Brooklyn and elsewhere for twenty years with only temporary relief. In fact, there were few, if any, kinds of food that did not distress her, so dis eased, sensitive and torpid were all the organs of digestion. The usual symp toms of dyspepsia, with its comcomi- tant ailments, were all present—bad taste in the mouth, dull eyes, cold feet anil hands, the sense of a load upon the stomaclq tenderness on pressure, indi gestion, giddiness, great weakness and prostration, and fugitive pains in the sides, chest and back. I have often risen in the night and administered stimulants merely for the sake and transient relief they gave. Intermittent malarial i^ever set in, complicating the case and making every symptom more pronounced and in tense. By this time the pneumogastric nerves had become very seriously in volved, and she had chronic Gastritis, and also what I may be allowed to call chronic intermittent malarial fever all at once. For the latter the physicians prescribed the good, old-fashioned, sheet-anchor remedy, Quinine, gradual ly increasing the doses, until—incredi ble as it may seem—she actually took THIRTY GRAINS A DAY FOR DAYS IN succession. This could not last. The effect of the quinine was, if possible, almost as bad as the two-fold disease which was wearing away her strength and her life. Quinine poisoning was painfully evident, but the fever was there still. Almost every day there came on the characteristic chill and racking headache, followed by the usual weakness and collapse. About this time I met socially my friend Mr. Norton, a member of the firm of Chauncey Titus & Company, brokers, of Albany, who, on hearing from me these facts, said: “Why, I have been through almost the same thing, and have got over it.” -“What cured you?” I asked eagerly. “‘Kas kine,” he said, “try it for your wife.” I had seen Kaskine advertised, but had no more faith in it than 1 had in saw dust, for such a case as hers. Mrs. Hall had no higher opinion, yet on the strength ot my friend’s recommenda tion 1 got a bottle and began its use as directed. Now recall what I have already said as to her then condition, and then read what follows: Under the Kaskine treatment all the dyspeptic symptoms showed instant improvement, and the daily fever grew less and soon ceased altogether.

With renewed assimilation of food came, of course, a steady increase in flesli, until she now looks iike her original self. She still takes Kaskine occasionally, but with no real need of it, for she is well. I consider this result a scientific miracle, and the “New Quinine” is en titled to the credit of it, for from the time she began with Kaskine she used no other medicine whatever.
