NEWNAN HERALD NEWNAN, FI R D A Y , MAY 14. ONE DOLE AH A YEAR IN ADVANCr. A “Lover’s Quarrel.” Kuniuiftfi City St«r. That was a pathetic story the news dispatches carried out of Denver the other day, about the old bachelor mil- lionare on hin deathbed who sent for the woman to whom he had been be trothed forty years ago. When both were young and poor they loved each other, and a day was set for the wedding. Before it came they quarreled over some trilling thing, as lovers always quarrel, and in the heat of Ins anger he went away. The years went by, and James M. Wilson became a millionaire. But his live for Carrie Hurd remained, and he never murried. When he was dying last week his mind went back to the sweetheart of his youth, to the strollB with her in the twilight down the flower-scented lane, and he Haw her face raised again to his, and heard her merry laughter, and there surged into his heart a feeling of remorse. Perhaps he had wronged in leaving her so, and a great longing came over him to see her once more be fore he died, if she was yet alive. No doubt Bho had married; perhaps she hud forgotten him. No matter, he wanted to see her. AndJ|so, to humor him, they Bent word buck to the oldj home town. But she was not there. Dong years ago she had gone away. Where? To Denver. They found her there, where she hod lived for years, just to be near the man she loved, where she could see him once in n while without his seeing her or knowing that she was near. His last hours were consoled Ly her presence, and his will gives her a for tune. But that does not atone for the suffering that u triviul "lovers' quarrel" was permitted to bring into their lives. It is a curious trait of human nature that so often men anil women will al low some minor disagreement, under the Btress of a’.foolish pride, to bring them misery. Only those who are wise learn how essential it is to make compromises, to overlook faults and failings, and to make sacrifices in recognition of the surpassing value of friendship'and lovo. - A Coramunity'of Widows. Mi'riwi’thcr Vindicator. There is nojjmarrying in Greenville these days.*.’. In fact, there is but little courting going on. Cupid is doing no business here. What’s the matter? It may he hard times. The young men of marriageable age seem to be out of the ring.% A few widowers are putting in some hard licks, hut the bachelors have given up the light. Greenville £is a town of widows. There are sixteen here. What iB the cause of so.'.great a rate of mortality among married men? This is a ques tion for an expert to answer. A wo man left alone to fight the bat ties of life has a hard time of it. The strong right arm of the husband hud hitherto been between her and the contest for existence. Plunged suddenly into the struggle she is dazed at first, but the pluck of womanhood wins at last. Nine times out of ten she is more Jeconomi- cal with her funds than the departed husband, and she wins by ttie practice of self-denial. Widows are pretty successful [and good children raisers. The crucible of (necessity brings out the purefgolu in the woman, and some how the Almighty is partial to the prayersjof the widow. Many strong men have been raised from boyhood by a widowed mother, and many a useful woman bus come up without a father's protection. The widow has a hard time, but her reward will be great where she succeeds in her mission. Pat was busy on a road working with his coat off. There were two Englishmen laboring on the same road, so they decided to have a joke on the Irishman. They painted a donkey’s head on the back of l’at’s coat and watched to see him put it on. Pat, of course, saw the donkey’s head on his coat, and turning to the English men, said: "Which of yez wiped yure face on me coat?” Communicated, Andersonville Prison. Thinking it might be of interest to some of your readers, 1 take the liberty of sending you this communication in regard to conditions at the Anderson ville prison; and will say this is not what I have heard someone say, or what someone has written or heard, but the writer was on the ground, around the prison, and he will try to be fair in what he undertakes to write, after a lapse of fifty years. 1 was detailed for guard duty at this prison in the summer of 1864, and remained there until the end of the war. I saw the last prisoner turned out. The prison stockade was built on the left of the railroad, about half a mile from the Andersonville de pot. At that time Albany was as far as the railroad went in that direction, and several timeR we had to make the trip to Thomasville on foot, a number of prisoners being held at that town the latter part of the war. It is about 80 miles from Albany to Thomasville—a right good tramp over the sandy roads, with but little to eat. However, a sol dier's duty is to obey orders and ask no questions, and if he does ask he is not apt to know much more than he did be fore. Andersonville prison embraced about thirty ncres of land, with a branch run ning through and a fine spring inside the grounds, which furnished water for the prisoners. The stockade was built of hewn pine logs set up on end, mak ing a wall about If) feet high. About every 100 yards there was a ladder lead ing to a small platform, where the guards kept watch over tho prison. On the inside, about ten feet from the stockade, was the dead line, and pris oners were not permitted to cross over this lino. Thero were two gates to the prison, known as the north gate and south gate. Rations for the prisoners were sent in at the north gate. The guard was mounted at the south gate, and required to stay there. Near this point cannon were mounted on a little hill, commanding tho prison enclosure. Each platform around the stockade was occupied all the time by a guard. The dead house and hospital were on the south side of the prison enclosure. The main business was done near the south gate. This prison was not a desirable place, for thero was much hardship con nected with prison life. Neither was it pleasant to be on guard duty, for the soldiers had to suffer privations and short rations the same as did the pris oners. It is a sad remembrance for ull who bud to undergo the hardships at Andersonville, whether prisoners or guards. J. H. M. Grantville, Ga., May 4. Chamberlain's Liniment.

John B. Gordon, on the way to Athnta for the unveiling of Uenj. 11. Hill’s monument, April IK), 1S86, first used the term, "Daughter of the Con federacy.” Crowds at every station met the train beuring I’resident Davis and his daughter. At each station calls were made for the President to speak. He was very weak, so Gen. Gordon stepped to the roar platform at West Point and. holding Winnie Davis by the hand, explained why the Presi dent could not speak, but he wished to introduce to them the "Daughter of the Confederacy.” Loud cheers rent the air and she was ever after that given that name, and every chapter organized in the U. D. C. is an honor to Winnie Davis. The next day, May 1, 1886, at the unveiling of the statue, Dr. Spalding led Winnie Davis ’for ward, and Henry Grady introduced her again as the "Daughter of the Con federacy.” They brought a wounded British soldier back from the front, and some body asked him to describe the battle in which he was hurt. "Well,” said the Tommy, "it’s like this: First you 'ears a 'ell of a noise, and then the nurse says: ‘Try and drink a little of this ’ere.’ " “Clean Up and Paint Up.” By WALLACE GOLDSMITH.

Soule, Georgia State College of Agriculture The native grasses of Georgia should be utilized to the utmost extent for the grazing of live stock in the sum mer time and for the production of hay. The Smith can produce a very satisfactory quality of hay in suffi cient abundance to meet the needs of its farm live stock and leave a sur plus for sale. It is true that our pastures have been neglected, and that we have not spent the effort on their care and management their importance entitles, in favored locations where we can glow blue grass and red clover, em phasis should be laid on their culti vation. In every section where red top, white clover, alsike and timothy can be grown, these grasses should he cultivated. For the general farm, Bermuda should be utilized for sum mer grazing, and a turf of this char acter will be greatly improved if Ja pan and bur clover are seeded there on. For winter grazing cereals can be extensively utilized, which may he seeded by themselves or combined with crimson clover or vetch. Excel lent hay can he made from cereals and vetch. Then, our climatic and soil conditions are so well adapted to the production of corn and sorghum to be used for silage and for combi nations of corn, sorghum, coxvpeas, soy beans and millet to be cured as hay that a choice quality of succulent food and dry roughness may be avail able on every Georgia farm, both sum mer and winter forphe maintenance of much larger numbers of live stock than we have ever though it necessary to keep up to the present time. Too great emphasis can not he giv en to our nature pastures and the pro duction of bay from tame grasses as well. It is only a matter of time and education until our merchants will re alize that we are producing here at home as choice a quality of hay as elsewhere, in fact, native hays con tain a higher content of digestible nu trients than those brought in from elsewhere and certainly we can pro duce them at a reasonable cost and still leave a profit to the farmer if we take into consideration the price which we now pay for northern and western hay.
