it remained for fire months; being

nation or expulsion from office, and in
answer to all those who may ask why
we did not take a more decided action,

pin and‘nothing was thought of it at

flamed, and grow steadily worse, the
inflammation extending into the hand

in the inflamed member, and it is
thought that amputation will be neces

An Honored Old Ceoralan.
Among tbe earliest settlers of Appling,
and who is nearing bis four-score and teu
yeara, Is Mr. Baxley, who lived in Appling
in the days when neighbors were scarce
and wo-ves were plentiful; not only
wolves, bat deer, turkeys, catamounts and
perhaps lions and tigers. He can tell eome
interesting things about these old times.
The contrast between then and now
is indeed marvelous. Mr. Baxley was
bred, born and raised in Appling, and is
therefore a full-blooded Appling coumian.
•Baxley," our town, was named in honor
of himbv Dr. P. Ketterer, who was at that
le acting as postmaster at this place.
Bailey has always voted the Demo
cratic ticket, and baa voted for or against

WHY THE WIND CHANCES.
Solentlflo Izplnnatlon ot theCausescf
Shifting Current* nnd Steady Winds.
Cassell’s Magazine.
That the changing ot the direction of
the wind is one to tbe Bhiftingo! tbe titna-
tionsoftbe greatest heat upon the earth
substantially proven by the fact that In
certain regions of the earth’s snrface,
where tbe situations of the greatest beat
and cold do not alter the dir eetlon in which
they lie to each other, the wind don not
change, bnt always blows in one direction
from one day to another and all the year
ronnd. This occurs in the great open
•pace of the ocean, where there ie no lend
to get bested np by the eunehine ot tbe
day and to get cool by the ecatteringof the
heat at night. In those spaces for a vast
breadth of many hundred miles the son
shines down day after day upon the sur
face of the sea, heating the water most
along tbe mid-ocean track, which tin
most immediately beneath its burning
rays aa it passes acrosa from east to
west.
Tbe midway tuck of tbe strongest sun
thine crosses the wide ocean as a belt or
zone, that spreads eome way to Other
s.do of the equator. Throughout this mid
way track the cooler and heavier air on
either hand drifts in from the north and
from tho south and then rises np, as It
becomes haa.cd by the sun; where the two
current* meet in bo'h instances, however,
tn consequence of the eplnnlng round ot
the earth, the advancing wind acquiree s
wests ..’d at well as an equatorial drift
The aircurrent, as tt approaches the
midway equatorial zone, where tbe on-
ward movement of the sea covered sur
face ol the earth ta performed with the
velocity ot a ihniisand miles an hour,
does not immediately acquire a lull rate
of speed, and lags back upon the ocean,
very large and of excellent quality,
and that tho presonce of cholera in
Spain will not act os an impediment in
the way of shipment to the United
States. This is alleged to have keen
accompanied by- a letter of William
Smith, health officer of the port of
Now York, to the firm or importers, in
which he says that fruits gathered in
infected districts, but packed and
Bbipped from non-infectcd points, will
not, on that account, subject a vessel
to delay at quarantine. This refers di
rectly to tne import of raisins from
Malaga and Denia. Referring to tliete
statements, prominent men in the fruit
trade and experienced packer* declare
that there is great danger of the intro
duction of cholera microbes in raisins
from infected districts of Spain, as
packed fruit easily absorbs microbes
and retains them for a great length of
time.

Cracow, requesting him to repair thither

“My fee will be two thousand florins.”
A second dispatch urged him to come
without deity, bnt added that he might

“No*, a krentzer leas than 2,000 florins,”

WELOOK BACK
With considerable pride upon tlifc first year of of our great suc
cess, and return many thanks for tho hundreds of congratulations
wo have received from tho people. As many express themselves,
you found the retail dry goods business stagnant and you infused
new life.” Yes, one year ago we commenced with the determina
tion to be Loaders and not followers in prices. How well
wo have succeeded we leave to the public to say. In tlie'languago
of the conquering hero, wo can truly say
We Came, We Saw, We Conquered
And to-day wo aro acknowledged far and wido as the Controllers of
the Dry Goods and Carpet Market of Middle Georgia.
Oar success has indeed been wonderful, but why should it notf
Before us was an open field and but littlo competition. Wo planted
our banner at 97 Cherry street, and under its folds, upon which
was painted in letters of gold tho single word that silent, omnipo
tent, monosyllablo GASH* Wo bavo marched on to success.
It proved to be tho ship which braved tho tido and redo upon the
waves, and after twelve months of prosperous sailing our banner
to-day shows not a rent, while around us lies the commercial
wrecks of many crafts that hung their credit signals at their mast
head, upon which danced tho phantom skeleton of credit with tho
promise I will pay to-morrow instead of the solid cash. As thopi-
lot steers clear of the breakers, so we will continue to avoid the
Maelstrom of mercantile disaster, known as tho credit system.

of the credit system and provo that if yon wish to illuminate and
