Newnan, Ga., Friday, MarcH 9,1888.
Bridging the Chasm.
To one of our resorts there came, ten
years ago, a dignified Southern Gener
al, with his wife, and a daughter so
lovely that all who saw her were
charmed. The first few weeks the
Southern visitors were quite exclusive
and frowned upon any attempts of the
citizens of the North toget acquainted
with them. They came simply for a
change of air and did not care for soci
ety. A Northern General, with his
family, stopped at the same house, and
there was a son in that family. There
almost always is a son in a Northern
family when there is a pretty girl
around. The two Generals were intro
duced, but for weeks they only passed
the time of day, and were so dignified
that it was a wonder they did not break
their backs. The lady from the South
became interested in the young gentle
man of the North, and before anybody
had realized that a calamity had befall
en the two families, they were head
and ears in love. The Southern Gener
al was mad, and there were stormy
times about the cool resort on the lake.
The old Southerner stamped his feet
and said they should never marry, and
the Northern General kept cool and
said if the young folks wanted to mar
ry he didn’t know any reason why they
shouldn’t, and as he was in love with
the girl too, and would give all he pos
sessed for her as a daughter, he swore
he would see that she was properly
eloped with; that old Confederate could
go no further. The old Confederate said
he would shoot up enough Yankees for
a “mess” if they tried any such wooden
nutmeg game on his family, and so
they had it until the summer was gone,
and—well, you know how it is your
selves. The young people coaxed, and
finally the Southern General said they
could do as they pleased, and they were
married. To-day there are four boys
and two girls that have come to bless
that union of the North and South.
Two of the boys have been named after
two of the greatest Confederate Gen
erals, and two have been named after
two great Northern Generals, and sev
eral months of the summer you can see
that okl Confederate grandfather in
Wisconsin, the guest of the Northern
grandfather, playing with those six
youngsters, and several months of 'win
ter the Northern General is visiting the
South to see those children grow, and
it is a grand sight to see the two grand
fathers bending over a cradle looking
at the youngest child, and arguing as
to which grand-parent the child resem
bles. The old fellowsare good friends;
the Southern General thinks his North
ern son-in-law is one of God’s noble
men, and the Northern General knows
that his beautiful daughter-in-law is
the sweetest woman on earth. Ten
thousand such weddings between the
Northern and Southern young people
would forever silence those who may
wish to see the two sections at enmity.
led on this question. It is fully under,
stood at last. The organs of the mo
nopolies in the great cities which farm
out their columns to booming paper
towns, and Senators in Congress who
are sent there as the representatives of
the great corporations, may seek to
create the impression that the people
prefer cheap whiskey to cheap clothing,
but it is not true anywhere in the M est
or South, and this will be made plain
when for the first time during thirty
years the issue is fairly presented to
the people at the polls.
How Baby Learns to Talk.
E. P. Powell in The Open Court.
Exceedingly interesting is the process
of language development in a babe. No
student in anthropology is more fertile.
The babe’s first cries are purely in
stinctive, and therefore purely animal.
It’s consonants are m. and b. labials
and liquids—used with the open vowels.
It does not use the genial tubercle; nor
for many weeks the frontal brain. Its
second list of sounds move further back,
and are g, goo, gutturals of the sim
plest sort. This g sound, with its nat
ural associate I, becomes the a basis
of a primitive language—the clicking
and glicking of Ainos and Hottentots.
Next observe the babe as it watches
your mouth and laughs at your cooing
and your baby talk. It finally sets its
own articulating organs in motion and
imitates you. The consequence soon
is simple use ot the frontal brain
and genial tubercle. The goo-goo
is followed by che-che, and soon
after by modulation. These are not
the first use of truly human organs,
but the first cerebrated sounds, as dis
tinct from instinctive and inherited ut
terances. The steps toward a highly
complex cerebrated language are there
after rapidly taken. l>
AVe have to bear in mind that the
babe organically follows historic evo
lution, and is an epitome of past pro
gress. So, also, in his speech he moves
on and on over the pathway of the
past, and reviews it all. An intelli
gent child expresses approbation and
disapprobation by the same sounds that
are used by adult monkeys. The sav
age hardly uses cerebrated sounds at
all. The refinement of language has
ever consisted in eliminating the ani
mal inheritance. The child’s use of
gestures is also inherited. lie does not
need to leagn to use his hands ; only
to secure muscular strength to direct
them. His play is at first purely ani
mal frolic, rejoicing in shouts and
shrieks that later he does not find nec
essary to his enjoyment. His laughing
and crying can only be understood as a
language, as they surely are also in
adults. The evolution of laughter would
be a delightful branch of my topic,
but a theme too much by itself. It is
enough to note in passing that not only
do animals laugh, but they smile.
Laughter is even not uncommon among
fowls. I have owned acock that had a
most distinct cachinnation.
Georgia and Reform.
.ouisville Courier-Journal.
The great State of Georgia is solid
or tariff reform. A few newspapers
ind some noisy politicians have tried to
:reate a different impression. But the
ittempt to organize opposition to Sena-
;or Colquitt, because lie favored a re-
orm of the tariff, failed, and a recent
•anvass of all the State papers show an
ilmost unanimous support of the Presi-
lent and the principle of tariff reform
is laid down in his message.
The Evening Journal of Atlanta sev
eral weeks ago sent to each of the 150
xlitors of weekly newspapers in Geor
gia, a letter asking:
“If botii cannot be secured, which
would you prefer, a reduction of the
rariff on the necessaries of life or repeal
if internal revenue tax on whiskey and
robacco ?”
Up to this date eighty-eight replies
liave been received; seventy-eight are
pronounced in favor of tariff reform,
ind ten either oppose it, or are rather
mixed.
This is significant. AVe suppose
Georgia may be taken as a fair repre
sentative of the new South. It has
suffered from the political and corpo
rate influences of a ring of money
makers and speculators, with Senator
Brown at its head and Atlanta as the
center of its operations. Every appeal
has been made to the cupidity of the
people. Tlufceitizens of Georgia have
been told that they owe all their pros
perity to the tariff. The cotton mills of
Georgia have been warned that tariff
reform meant the ruin of that industry.
In picturesque and romantic language
the moonshiners of Georgia have been
described as persecuted martyrs, hunted
bv savages with warrants from the
After Years of Separation.
New York World.
Curious meetings happen at e’-ery
session of Congress, in which old school
fellows see each other again after a
long time. Tom Heed, as a young man,
went to California and there met a
young fellow named Jim Loutit, who
was a blacksmith’s son, and the two
struck up quite an acquaintance to
gether. But they separated, not to see
each other again until they came to
gether during the Forty-ninth Congress
on the floor of the House. William M.
Evarts and Chief Justice A\ aite were
schoolboys at Yale in the same class,
and they did not meet after their grad
uation at any length until both, as the
greatest lawyers of the country, were
appointed counsel of the Geneva arbi
tration. Isidor Itayner, of Maryland,
Senator Daniel, of Virginia, and Sena
tor Faulkner, of AY est ATrginia, were
all at college at the University of Y ir-
ginia at the same time, and John In
galls and President Garfield first came
together while students at AVilliams
College, Massachusetts. The first day
of Congress, Rayner, of Maryland, sat
beside a rather rough looking Congress
man from the South, and noted that
this member looked at him rather scru-
tinizingly. At last he turned to him
and said:
long engaged the attention of special
ists, and so satisfactory has been its
working that a duplicate of it has late
ly been formally established. In these
colonies the lunatics are boarded out
with the inhabitants, live as members
of the family, assist in their work and
have liberty to move about at will.
The regularity and healthiness of the
life led by the afflicted inhabitants of
Glieel restores a considerable propor
tion of them to their right mind.
Gheel, however, is in the Flemish
speaking portion of Belgium, and it has
of late years been found that patients
from the Walloon country who speak
only French, or the AYalloon patois,
were awkwardly placed and their recov
ery retarded by the absence of ready
means of communication with those
about them. The experiment was
therefore made of establishing a French
speaking colony at Lieurneux, in the
AYalloon country, near Spa; and it has
been so successful that it lias now been
placed upon a permanent basis. The
cost of pauper lunatics to their com
munes does not exceed a franc a day.
Neither at Gheel nor at Lieurneux has
it been found that constant intercourse
with lunatics has increased the tenden
cy toward insanity among the natives.
She Wanted Cold Facts.
Boston Courier.
“Yes,” said the young man, as he
threw himself at the feet of the pretty
school teacher, “I love you, and would
go to the world’s end for you.”
“You could not go to the end of the
world for me, James. The world, or
the earth as it is called, is round like a
ball, slightly flattened at the poles.
One of the first lessons in elementary
geography is devoted to the shade of
the globe. You must have studied it
when you were a boy.”
“Of course I did, but—”
“And it is no longer theory. Circum
navigators have established the fact.”
“I know, but what I meant was that
I would do anything to please you.
Ah ! Minerva, if you knew the aching
void—”
“There is no such thing as a void,
James. Nature abhors a vacuum ; but,
admitting that there could be such a
thing, how could the void you speak of
be a void if there was an ache in it ?”
“I meant to say that my life would
be lonely without you ; that you are
my daily thought and my nightly
dream. I would go anywhere to be
with you. If you were in Australia or
at the north pole I would fly to you.
I-”
“Fly ! It will be another century
before men can fly. Even when the
laws of gravitation are successfully
overcome there will still remain, says a
late scientific authority, the difficulty
of maintaining a balance—”
“Well, at all events,” exclaimed the
youth, “I’ve got a pretty good balance
in the savings bank and 1 want you to
be my wife. There !”
“ AVell, James, since you put it in that
light, I—”
Let the curtain fall.
And a word with you, Mr. Dress
Coat! You are young; you have a
good position, you expect to rise in
the world and make money and success
in your work. Very well ; but to do
that you must take care of yourself.
No guardian angel is going to follow
you around and keep off bad colds, and
pneumonia, and the effects of too much
champagne and too many late suppers.
You’ve got to pa}* for your own indis
cretions, and pay heavily, too. Nature

Washington Critic.
They were talking of atmospheric in

ment of the affections as exemplified
by summer resort love-making in con
tradistinction to that prevailing in
AYaslnngton society and hotel parlors.
“AYere you ever at Mountain Lake,
Giles county, Virginia?” he asked,
with an intense geographic yearn in his
soulful voice.
“No,” she replied, casting down her
eyes ; “is it nice there ?”
“Delightful.” he said ; “by day the
sun is soft; by night the moon and stars
make love in the clear skies; the moun
tains rise to kiss the clouds ; the birds
sing to the nodding flowers, and from
purple peaks which melt into blue you
can see into three States.”

STEEL ENGRAVINGS.
Tlio Eclectic comprises eacli year two
large volumes of over 1.7(H) pages. Each ot
these volumes contains a fine steel engrav

magazine.
Some fashionable ladies are not satis
fied with ready-made fans, but must
liave them made to order; they are,
however, satisfied with Dr. Bull’s
Cough Syrup at 25 cents and take it re
gularly.
“One fire burns out another’s burn-
in 0 ',” and most pain suffers more to
be cured, but Salvation Oil is painless
and certain. It costs only 25 cents.

and partly behind the counter,” and a

the road, hitched the horse to a fence

“ ‘John, he may be honest, or he may
be after pork. I’ll hold him here with
the shotgun while you go and see if his
horse and buggy are there.’
“He ordered me to sit down, and
