FROM PARIS TO ALGIERS.
Notes and Incidents of the Trip As De
scribed by Our Travelling Cor
respondent.
Fora long winter I have been in a
-great and busy city. Oftentimes I have
longed for a peep at a calm, smiling
landscape, and for it breath of fresh,
•count ry air. This wish has at last been
•gratified. A journey by rail for two
stays fruit 1 Paris to Marseilles, through
.a beautiful country, with its wealth of
WQr-changlng landscapes, was like a
Jlood of spring-time falling unexpected
ly into the dreariness of winter. Surely,
France In the spring-time is the most
1 M-autifnl country in the world. There
is an exact it ude, a painstaking, in
French agriculture that outlines upon
the face of broad and fertile acres a rich
pietureof faultless perspective, “iloau-
Siful and sunny France,” it has been
-■ailed. Certainly, if I remember its
beauty iih presented to me during this
trip I shall have no reason to change
t he expression.
As the heavy locomotive pulled slow
ly its long train, woli loaded with pleas
ure seekers, out Into the country, and
ore we had lost, the cit y of Paris to view,
(beclouds seemed to lift just for our
benefit—the sun came out In all the
freshness and glory of a spring day, and
Ihd beautiful Holds, rich in the promise
•of their harvests, gave salutation. I11 a
few hours wo were passing through the
great, bolt of tho French vineyards,
which reaches from central France to
the Atlantic ocean. Thou, in the course
of a few hours, tho scene suddenly
changes, and for two hundred miles,
until wo reach Mamdllos, it is one con
tinual orchard of olive and almond
* rues. The olive oil is t he principal
wealth of this section, and dotted here
and thorn along the way are manufacto-
riee whore the oil is prepared for mnr-
►Vot They say that our old friend, tho
••otton sood oil, is accustomed to leave
by stealth its native heath, chango Its
«uune in a sea voyage, and bob up in
Che French market us genuine “olive

stst competitor.
Hut here wo are at Marseilles, with its
. Iiio.ooo inhabitants with its splendid
harbor- a city of groat commercial itn-
jportaneO the second city of Franco,
Again wo look upon t he sea, and t he
groat vessels which a multitude of sail
ora are busy loading and unloading,
l'lte night is over. It. is now morning,
-oid wo aro to leave for Algiers at 12:30.
l'he Hrst business with a traveler is, of
■course, to visit the steamship olllco ami
have his cabin on board tho steamer as
signed him. I daresay many of tho
travelers that our train brought to tho
city last night will have a rich export
s'tioo this morning boforo sailing
Among tho passengers on tho train
was a young priest, who doubtless, front
ItiM nervousness and tho wonder con
stantly depicted on his face at every
change of scene, had never traveled be
fore. llo could not conceal bis anxiety,
and was constantly nsklug questions
which showed hint to bo just such a sub
ject as "sharks’’ delight to pounce upon
His dark ministerial robo was no pro
tection against the designs of “sharks.”
Ho had nil experience; behold how.
Marly in tho morning ho started out
search of the steamer's olllco. lie
'iQlflftfil at tho turn of thollrst corner
to dentinal some instructions. Unlucki
ly for him, ho fell innocently into tho
hands of a band of parasites who wore
l he lookout for a stranger. Yes, t hoy
would show him the olllco; they would
go with him with pleasure. So saying,
they walked him around a square in
tho opposite direction, where all took
♦-onto wine, for which the young priest
l>aid, since his companions wore so gen
erous. Thus around two or three other
-quaros and another drink. Thus they
walked tho poor fellow for an hour or
more, at last showing hint the otlico,
-and demanding at tho same time money
for l-Uoir services. This was refused,
but the parasites, well knowing their
man, flew into a passion and pretended
that they would swallow him whole if
it were not for the respect they had for
UU calling. This outburst of passion
the poor young priest escaped by hand
ing (Mil some of his extra dimes for the
-service renderod. Ho had simply
•struck a band of parasites whoso profes
sion, luckily, is no worse than to bleed
unsuspecting travelers of a few dimes,
j hoy succeeded only too well with our
tellow-passenger, and as lie recounted
with sadness this story of human de
pravity to us, he showed that he had
evidently learned a lesson that I10 would

donee in my sailor’s cap, they would
doubt less say, “Humph! ho has t ravolet
before; he is not afraid of t he son."
But, alas! it, is not the llrst time in
the history of the, world tlmtn haughty
spirit goes before a fall. In a short
time I was on my back in the hunk
my cabin. Why, do you ask? Well,
that’s the quest ion. Supper came on,
and the servant seemed to stop just,
above my bend and ring and ring his
hell, just to taunt, me.- He might have
known that supper before sunset was
too early for an American. And a good
lady kirid-henrted|slio was -pooped in
as she passed to her room just across
t he way, ns much as to say, “Are you
sick? I am so sorry!" Ah! I suddenly
recall that she is one of the ladles to
whom 1 gave my sympathy in mlvant
I finally ring for tho porter, and he
comes, pulls aside the curtain, and says,
before 1 have time to explain matters,
"Arc you sick?” Ah! there it is again,
as if other people should know my pri
vate business. "You just tiring mo a
sandwich and an orange, will you
said I, “I think I shall not go to supper;
it is too much t rouble to go upstairs.’’
Soon (ho stars canto out in a host i
tho blue sky, and mirrored themselves
in the (loop beneath. In silence, upon
my buck, I eat my sandwich and look
into tho glorious heavens, with their
wealth of divine beauty, and far away
towards the horizon, wltcro stars now
and then scent to dip down in a bath
into tj>e ocean. It was not so bad, after
all. In fact, I concluded all to ntysolf
not to go to tho table at all during the
voyage, but when moul-tlmo came
around to simply ask for a sandwich,
nml in the solitude of ray cabin to oat
the sandwich in ponoo, In contemplation
of the glory of tho universe. My sail
or’s cap was already folded in impn-
tience and packed away in disgust.
Hut yonder is Algiers—tho voyage is
nearly ended. All passengers are on
dock, eager to get tho llrst glimpse of
the city, and then of tho Arabs. Tito
sight; of tho Arabs in their funny cos
tumes is a new sight to most of us, and
0110 almost forgets the Ills of the \oy-
age, In the interest that the new scene
excites. After 28J hours our steamer
slows up nml comes gradually to anchor
in the port of Algiers, during which
time wo contemplate tho city before us.
Tho view front tho sea is a striking
sight. White houses rise tomico above
terrace in the form of an amphitheater,
against the side of a great hill that
curves around the harbor. There are
lintidsomo quays and beautiful bouvle-
vards at tho base, nml tho crown is
formed by Cnsbad, the ancient citadel.
The ntosquos with their minarets, tho
public gardens abundant in palms and
other tropical plants, the multitude of
swarthy Arabs, all clearly tell us that
Kuropo is behind us. Hut the gang-way
is lowered and there is a rush for land.
At llrst, until we pass the officers who
search our baggage, we Itnvo no diffi
culty, but immediately wo pates the line
guarded by tho military wo are at tho
mercy of the good-natured but howling
Arabs, Wo calmly seat ourselves upon
our valise, and wit h our umbrella koep
the niolt ol' young Arabs at bay. They
aro so obliging, each one wishing to
•itfry your baggage, and it takes a sharp
rap of the umbrella occasionally to
nuso them to release their hold. We
forget t he ludicrousness of our situation
in watching a feHow-passongor who is
indiscreet enough to try to carry his
own trunk on his shoulders from tho
piny. Immediately he is besieged by a
multitude of Arabs, disputing with
each other and pushing each other in
their strife to obtain the privilege of
carrying ills trunk for him, in order to
make a few cents. For a moment tho
passenger is nonplussed, and he stands
in doubt while the Arabs take advan
tage of his embarrassment to howl in his
ear. lie decides upon a modus operandi,
for at once he begins to throw his dis
engaged arm about bint, cracking the
Arabs on the head, The Arabs in turn
chide each other, but something in the
manner or dress of their passenger
ausos them to renew their attacks and
it seems they quietly conclude to have
some fun at hi- expense. They attack'
his trunk front all direction, trying to
it from his shoulder. While the

Grade” sold in Cullman City.
For the information of those desiring
to know about lands out here, I will
state that there is no land in Cullman
county subject to entry. The Govern
ment set apart every sixteenth section
for school purposes, called “school
lands.” All of these lands have been
sold.itt t his county. After the school
lands were taken out, every other sec
tion was given by tlie Government to
the Louisville and Nashville road. Now
there is plenty railroad land here for
sale, from $3 to $4 per acre. It is sold
on such easy terms—small payments
annually—that any industrious man can
moot the payments and soon have a
good homo. Now, in Winston county
there aro large tracts of good land sub
ject to entry, and it is fast tilling up.
Winston adjoins Cullman, and it is said
the branches don’t dry up there in sum
mer as they,do in Cullman. Therein
Hint rock in Winston; none in Culltnan.
The rocks here are smooth, shito-look-
ing, and you can writo your name on
some of them. There are nlso consider
able tracts of school land in Winston,
which will be sold soon. It is tho cheap
est land a man can buy. It is pjit up
and sold to tho highest bidder, no mat
ter what it brings. The Surveyor of
Cullman county told mo ho saw school
lands sell in Cullman county six years
ago at 25 fonts per acre, A man near
Logan sold out rocontly and bought 1(10
acres 01 school land in Winston for $85.
People abroad have art idea that the
county of Cullman is filled up with
Germans. That is a groat mistake.
They aro numerous only in and around
Cullman City. The pcoplo aro clever,
law-abiding citizons, who “Remember
tho Sabbath day and koop it holy.”
We aro forty tnilos from Decatur,

Wliat the South Needs.
Ex-Governor Lowrny, of Mississippi, in North
American Review.
The needs of tho South tiro organized
or systematized labor, capital, and less
legislation. 1 dissent from those who
class tho negro as an inferior laborer. I
regard him as the best and cheapest la
borer that will ever be found for the
cultivation of our chief product, cotton.
Ills adaptability to the climate, and tho
fact that I10 is not a skilled laboror, to
gether with his natural inclination, lit
him for the cotton Hold. What his ul
timate fate may bo is a difficult prob
lem, but it will bo no easy task to flnd
his equal or supply his place as a labor
or for tho cultivation of cotton. When
it is romembored that^he annual value
of this one product alono in Mississippi,
in round numbers, is Hfty millions of
dollars, and that it exceeds that sum in
one State and approximates it in others,
the importance of well organized'’and
reliable labor is apparent. It is one of
the needs that cannot be overestimated.
I have had occasion heretofore to say,
and I repeat the statement, that if the
area of country embraced in wliat is
known as tho Mississippi delta was
thoroughly protected from tho floods
and every acre cultivated in cotton, it
would produce more than was raised in
tho United States iu any year previous
to the late war.

ABSOLUTELY PURE
An Albany lady, whoso husband is
the champion snorer of his community,
contided to a female friend the other
day the following paiuful intelligence:
My life has not been one of unalloyed
delight. I have had the measles, the
chicken pox, the cholera, the typhoid
lover and the inflammatory rheuma
tism, but I never knew wliat real mis
fortune was until l married a burglar
ilarm.”
A Sad Condition.
suffered for 11 vo years with the
Plain and Pretty Women.
The question is often asked, “Why
is it that so many plain women marry
well while pretty girls either do not
marry at all or make matches that, are
failure^, from a mental, social and pecu
niaay standpoint?”
llto fact is, that woman’s idea of a man
is of a creature differing but little from
• ho domestic quadrupeds with which
site surrounds herself in the home circle.
A pretty girl in her early youth is
surrounded by a set, of vapid boys.
Naturally she forms her judgment of
men from them. Therefore, her iden
of mankind is not an exalted one. She
finds that to look pretty and to dress
tastefully, to dance and chat on tlie
most frivolous subjects, is all that is re
quired in order to be a success.
l’retty women, as a rule, do not give
as much thought to tho cultivation of
their Intellect as they would devote to
the manufacture of a now bonnet.
For a brief space, while youth lasts,
her wares apparently find satisfactory
returns. Men praise her pretty face;
they seem to enjoy her society; sho is,
therefore, satisfied. But alter youth
lias tied, carrying with it her bright
eyes, her rosy cheeks and roguish dim
ples, when mind and not matter is to
he weighed in tho balance, how griev
ously is sho then found wanting?
There was no soul behind the bright
eyes to keep them forever brilliant, nor
mind to illuminate the palo face and
keep it forever fair. Her youth lias pass
ed away. All that she over possessed
or cultivated she finds it then too late to
avail herself of. Sho lacks the energy
to bestow hor care and attention upon
graver matters, and thus embittered by
tho cold looks and bittor words of her
quondam admirers she sinks into a
state of apathy, drift ing aimlessly with
the tide,, and finally ends a life of drea
ry maidenhood without having made
better or brighter one soul for her liv
ing.
A plain woman, on the contrary, cul
tivates all the best,gifts of the mind and
soul with which sho bus been endowed.
In the early part of her life, perhaps, her
prospects would seem dim compared
with those of a beautiful associate; but
in Inter years, when tho frivolous boys
have, from long contact with the
world, with serious thought and study,
become earnest men, the plain woman
becomes a necessity—tjho pretty one a
pastime for an idle moment.
l’retty women have less opportuni
ties, strange ns it may seem, titan plain
ones for becoming wliat they were or
iginally intended to be—sweet, noble,
patient helpmates—simply because
men (on whom the fault should rest)
have caused women to entertain the
idea that life is neither a serious nor an
earnest thing, but simply a journey to
be jested and danced through. Is it
any wonder that our girls think men
aro puppets to laugh and sing at their
will?

Hereditary Blood Poison.
Many of tho evils of life are inherit
ed. Parents transmit to their children
a stnto of Mood impurity. What a fear
ful heritage to bequeath an innocent
child! Scrofula, skin diseases, erysip
elas ringworm, tetter, scabby surfaces,
syphilitic symptoms, ulcerative and
consumptive tendencies, etc., all of
which make life miserable, and the vic
tim a prey to designing quacks. It is
manifestly tho duty of every one to
keep their blood pure and their system
in a condition of good health. Nature
has given as kindly herbs that will ac
complish this,if properly used. The best
are used with careful selection in that
compound known as Dr. Hull’s Sarsapa
rilla. There is no phase of blood poison
this incomparable alterative wifll not

you do yourself great injustice if you
