better.
“How many doga have you?” 1
asked, as a black aud yellow uouud
• rotted through the beautiful grove
dint surrounds the Colonel's house in
Coviugtou.
-Only six,” he answered.
“Only six! Why, how many dogs
do you‘want?”
“Oh,” he replied. “It takes ten or
a dozen dogs for a good fox hunt. 1
lost a fine puppy thq otner day and had
a splendid dog poisoned, aud I'm a
little short on dogs. I've now got
Clint, Ben, Joe aud Lou Scott, Bill
and Khet, besides Beauty tbe little
puppy.”
“Beauty” I found to be a very
uttg&iuly sort of a purp. She would
not be handsome in the eyes of reofile
generally, but handsome is as hand-
-tom does, and, as the angular purp
gave promise of being a tine fiox dog,
she was i a i.ed accordingly.
“That «.og there,” said uie Colonel
|K)iutiiig to a white and red spotted
iiouud, “is inclined to be a skirter.”
“And pray, what Is skirter?” I
asked.
“You don't know what a skirter is?
VYeJl, there are three kinds of dogs you
don't want for hunting, and the skirter
is one of them. He gets on the trail,
gets excited and confused and runs
ahead w ithout noticing that the fox
lias turned. He runs wildly and
doesn’t stick to the trail. The ’reverse
of the skirter is the dog that ties ou
the trail. You don't want him either,
for he will trail all day in the siiadow
of a tree. Neitherdo von want a bab
bler—a dog that barks when he scents
the trail and ha ( f the time when he
iocsn't scent it. Now my dogs will
follow a cold trail with very little
harking until they jump the fox, and
t hus they get a fresh trail which can be
easily followed.”
“Where do you find red foxes?”
“About ten miles from Covington,
on the rivers. I ran one to Madison
one day, starting him teir miles from
Covington i
five inTles.”
The puppy that Colonel Andersou
lost a few days ago, was ten mo»t..>
old aud gave promise of being one of
I he fastest dogs ever seen in the State.
S »me days ago a fox skin, a year old,
was taken out and giveu to the
Colonel’s carriage driver who mounted
u mule and dragged the skin for several
miles in and around Covington. The
fox hounds were brought outand with
tiieui the ten mouths* old puppy. A
big crowd of men, boys, street Arabs,
etc., collected, and when the skin hud
several ini es the start the dogs were
turned loose. Away they went! And
away went the uieii aud boys! Tie
dogs yelped, the men shouted, and the
fun was glorious. *1 he ten mouths' old

the puppy by the ham. An angry
snap at the town dog and the chase
was resumed. Other dogs attacked the
puppy, but oblivious to everything she
went on, and soon overtook the sur
prised darkey who was dragging the
skin. This is the pnppy that was lost
few days later while ou a hunt.

Dickaou’a Agricultural Proverbs
aud Observations.
We notice in the Sparta JshmndUt
something over half a column of the
Agricultural sayings of the late David
Dicksou, some of which we copy as
follows:
Annual manures are preferable, they
ought to double the investment..
Soluble bones and Peruvian guano
w ill square up the accounts with 100
per cent, profits.
Be vigilant to save all huine-uiude
manure possible.
Manipulate your land with vegetable
mold.
Plow deep, rotate your crops and
rest your lauds.
Lay oft’ cotton rows 4 feet apart with
a shovel-plow; double furrow* put in
the grain 8 inches deep.
JRhlge with a long scooter 5 indies
wide; make the bed with turn-plows;
subsoil the turn-plows; split out the
middles with shove). Plant with a
cotton seed sower, aud cover with a
board or harrow.
First plowing: Run 22-inch sweep
with right winged turtle*! down, hoe
out two or throe stalks to the hill
averaging i> inches leu days after
plowing.
Second plowing: Use same sw*ecp,
the right wing turned up a'little more.
Third plowiug: lu the same way;
run a third furrow in the middl? to
level.
Cotton only requires distance one
Way.
Mr. Dickson has made oil some
acres 0,000 pounds seed cotton \«ei
acre. A 10-acre lot made 3,000 pounds
average to the aero.
Be careful not to cut the root-* of cot
ton.
Ou level land run the rows north
and south.
Never put more than 100 stalks to
tlm bushel of corn the land ought t<»
make.
Two thousand stalks of corn to the
acre are enough for this county (Han
cock, Ga.)
1 have made one bushel of corn to
every i»2 stalks iu the field.
Turn the weeds, grass, peas and
clover, and made the land mellow.
Plow deep ami cultivate shallow,
ami you will have uo trouble in grow
ing crops.
Clay lands will bear the §«nie treat
ment as sandy lands, aud with lo
litiiculty.
No mutter the color of lauds, <
whether saud or clay, keep up a full
supply of vegetable mold; break deep
iH*l‘ore p'antiug; cultivate highly—the
result will lie good.
In the distance I give, 7 by 3 feet,
there are 21 square feet to each stalk
of corn, if there is enough soluble
matter in that space for two, or eveu
three cars, one stalk will take it up;
but if Uier * is only matter enough for
one ear of c>ro, and you put two
stalks, and water is scarce at earing
time, you will miss gathering eveu
that one ear.
If it is a dry year, thin plaotlugs
will always make the most.
Four distinct errors keep planters
from making good corn crops; first,
not keeping sufficient mold In the
land; second, plowing too shallow in
preparing for the crop; third, plant
ing t>o thick; fourth, cultivating too
deep.
Keep your land in good heart.
To manure the laud with peas, sow
the peas the 1st of July. Drop the
peas and guano in every third furrow,
a< you break the land, ’if a good crop
be made, feet! off with stock—other
wise turn under.
The true policy is to secure the
greatest amount of vegetable mold you
can accumulate at least cost.
Avoid permaueut manures. Use the
kind that will come back to us the
first year, and bring a large interest in
the form of coru,cotton, wheat, etc.
t*«iuutry afterwards. [Cheers.] Now,

Cigarettes are largely Used by boys,
but cigarette smokers, both young and
olJ, usually regard witli skepticism
the statementsmade by plresieians con
cerning the evil copsequences of the
habit. The smokers say that their
cigarettes are made of the “purest
Virginia,” but if they want, to know
what this “purest Virginia” is, they
should read what a large manufacturer
of tobacco recently said to a New York
reporter:
Tiie quanlty of drugs used in cigar
ettes is appalling” he declared, “and
the commonest of these is valerian and
tincture of opium. .
“An experienced tobacconist can de
tect the presence of valerian by the
-tnell. The drug imparts a sweet,
soothing effect, I hat iu a little time ob
tains a fascinating control over the
-moker. The more cigarettes he
smokes the more he smokes, just as is
the case will* one who use* opium.
The desire grows into a passion. The
smoker becomes a slave to the enei vat-
iug habit.
[y the use of drugs it is possible to
make a very inferior qualify of tobacco
pleasant. They are put upon, the
market, at such a price than the poorest
can easily procure them, and boys go
in swamis for them.”
“What is this Havana flavoring that
is so much used ?”
It is made from the tonca beau,
which coutaius a drug called melloio-
tis, a deadly poison, seven grains be
ing sufficient to kill a dog. It inis
become quite an article of commerce
and Is extensively used iu the manu
facture of cigarettes.”
“Does the fiaper wrapper of a cigar
ette add a great deal to its injurious-
ness?”
Certainly. There are three sorts
of iwper iu common use, made respec
tively from cotton, from linen rags, ami
from rice straw. Cotton paper is made
chiefly iif Trieste, Austria, and the
linen and rice pa|»er in Paris.
The first, manufactured from the
filthy scrapping of r.ig-pickers, is
bought in large quantities by tiie man
ufacturers, who turn it iuto pulp, and
object it to a bleaching process io
make it presentable.
The lime and other substances used
in bleachiug have a very harmful in-
th euce up' ll tiie membranes of the
throat and nose.
Cotton paper Is so cheap that
thousaud cigarettes can be wrap|ied at
a cost of only two cents. Tobacconiz-
ed paper is manufactured.
It is common iKijicr saturated with
tobacco in such a way as to ifiiitate the
veins of the tobacco leaf very nearly.
It is used In making all-tobacco cigar
ettes. Arsenical preparations are alsu
used in bledchin* cigarette |nt|K*rs, and
oil of creols is prtKlticed naturally a- a
consequence of combustion. Tbe latter
very injurious to the .throat and
mugs, and is said to accelerate the de
velopment of consumption in any one
predisposed to the disease.’*
TUe Education of Wsuian.
tiunyon's lUastrated World.
Since the Greek idea of education was
summed up iu two words, Music and
GymtirSt c-, it may he suppos-al that
our young ladies, who grow pale and
rouud-sliouldered over the piano, and
delight iu ruber skates, are being edu
cated oil t le Grecian plan. But wheu
we learn that with the Athenians all
mental traiuiug was included *n inusi.
(tutelage of the Muse-) amt all physi
cal cultnre in gymnastics, the illusion
vanishes. Unhappily the Greek-
thought little of mental development
iu women. When? low ideas of
women's qualities, place and power
prevail there will not be much thought
given to her proper education.
In modem times, under the gencn l,
almost caut, phrase, IFotsaa’s Bight*,
her peculiar nature, mission and desti
ny have been very thoroughly dis-_
cussed; and the general conclusion is
now settled that, *• bile man aud womau
have in their nature much in common,
and much In which each is the com
plement of the other, her mission is to
be a true daughter,sister, friend, wife,
mother, neighbor, and. her education
should fit her firet for all these rela
tions, and second'for her position as a
human toeing of tbe nineteenth cen
tury. Oue criticism, too often just, is
that “she knows lots of things from
books, but somehow .-he lacks sense.”

elect saw her occasionally, wiw*n both

gantic scheme and of the amount of
money involved, aud of tbe manner in
which Dr. West and his friends were
to get possession of the railroad.
A prominent cotton merchant hap
pened by and it was found out that it
was no secret that Dr. J. A. A. West
aud Major T. P. Bianch were opeuly
trying to get possession of the Central
for a numberof English capitalists and
that they were willing to give part of
if they could get even one-half of the
stock, and that they had decided to
make a proposition to the holders of
the stock, the substance of which prop
osition Is, that if the parties will put
their stock in bauk for a limited length
of time until Messrs. Branch & West
can see It they can get a controlling
intere-t, Messrs. Branch & West will
give a contract to pay par forthe stock
if they get the necessary amount. And
said the gentleman, “I would not be
surprised were they to succeed.”
Another gentleman when asked said:
“ Ygs, 1 have heard of the sensation and
I understand positively that the En
glish capitalists are no other people
than the Standard Oil company. Yo
can readily see what a big thing it
would lie. 'Why,” said he, “suppose
for a little over three aud a half mil
lion dollars the entire Central system
could be obtained with all the leases it
owns. It would be a tremendous bar
gain and would really be getting the
.-took of the Central for 50 cents ou the
dol lar.fi >r after they got the Central why
they need not declare a dividend lor
twenty years.
A noth r stock dealer was seen anp
said Unit there was a scheme of a diff
erent nature being put into shape, by
which the control of the stock \\’asto be
obtained. Meeting a trustee of the
Richmond academy, where Dr. West
holds a professorship, the reporter
asked if lie knew anything of the sensa
tion.
Yes,” said he. “I have just heard
that Dr. West will be a candidate for
the presidency of the Central, and it is
more than probable, I hear, that he will
get It.”

Something Al>out a fiew Cow Hoy
Evangelist on the Frontier.
I liicngo Tribune.
A slight, wiry man of 25, with
bronzed face and large brown hand,
came into the Tribune office yesterday
morning.
Throwing on the table a white som
brero thar measured four feet from tip
to tip, ami around which was wonnd
rope enough to furnish out a dozen
“necktie” parties, he produced his
cant. It was a dainty, glazed thing,
with gilt edges. On the centre, printed
in ink the color of rnsty blood, were
tin* words.* “S. W. Wesley, Cowboy
Evangeli-t, Caddo, Ind. Ter.”
“That’s me,” said the 3'oung man,
as he drew up a cha.r and sat down.
“Reckon you'd .heard o' me, an'
migiit like to lay an eye or two on
me.”
Mr. Wesley crossed his legs and
went ou to explain the cause of his
visit to Chicago. “Ye S'e, I have a
church at Caddo—twenty-five souls
an* a girl—an’ we need a building.
There’s a very neat put-up there,
goiu' for $780. It’s our meat. I only
only need $200 now, an' Chicago I
reckon')! ante np about them figures.
Trust iu the Lord, anyhow. Never set
into anything, if _it’s only for tbe
cigars, without mistin' in tiie Lord,”
Mr. Wesley continued thoughtfully.
“I was born,” said the evangelist,
communicating the startling secret
with much impressiveness, “I was
boru in Missouri, but when I was a 3-
year-ole I riz to the enormity of the
fact an’ went to Texas. One dark
liight I sathl ed a grey Alley au' rode
out into Texas. Yes, sir, it was my
third birtl d.iy. I was brought up on
the frontier, an' until a. year ago was
a cowboy. Every body knew me. I
was branded all over with the devil's
irons ; yes sir. One day, year ago,
things bein' corpse like on the frontier,
1 dropped over into Anderson county^
jest to git a swaller of civilization. I
had severe , so to speak. Happeued
into meeting one night, au’ there* was
Major Penn, an evangelist, firin’ red
hot Bible into the crowd. Before that
I’d been a sort o' Maverick, knockin’
around without no owner, but that
night the Lord jest lassoed me, brand
ed me, and says,.‘Now you caper on
my ranch,*, aud I’ve been adorn’ the
very s me. - * -
“’Why, a year ago I didn’t know
Matthew from Mordecai, but I’ve
sorted tlii.*gs out. If any man can
jump a quotation from the Bible that
I don’t know, why—I'll—I'll swallow

he likes
Mr. \W-!ey picked up his hat aud
turned it te.i erly in his hands.
“Kinder star** at this here—folks seem
to be a little behind in the fashions.

wcarin’ a well-grown, clean-cnrried

emnly.

During the late war a mess of offi

they wer* taking tea one eyening in
their barracks' the fire fell down and
lit on tiie boards uear it, winch very
soon began to blaze. “Bless your

hastening to dispose of the tea-kettle,
which he held in his hand. “Pour the

captain. “This won't do, sir,” said
Dennis, “it's hot water.”

For twenty long years I have suffered un
told tortures from a terrible pain and weak
ness in the small of my back, which resisted
ail modes and manner of treatment.
Fur a long tone the horrifying pangs of an
eating cancer of my lower Up has added to my
misery and aoffering. This encroac
boning and painful sore on my lip was pro
nounced Epithelial Cancer by the prominent
physicians in this section, which stubbornly
masted the best medical talent. About eigh-
cated in my breast, whjpb could not be allay
ed by the use of ordinary modes of treatment.
it, on the 18th of last July,
a leading physician said that I could outlive
longer than four day*, and I had about given
up in despair. The burning and excruciatii
ravages of the cancer, the painful condition
my back and breast, and the rapid prostration
of my whole system combined to make me
mere wreck of former manhood.
While thus seemingly suspended on a threau
between life and death, I commenced the use
of U. B. B , the grandest blood medicine, to
me and my household, ever used.
The effect was wonderful—it was magical.
The excruciating pains wuich had tormented
day and by night for twenty years were
soon held in abeyance, and peace and comfort
urerC restored to a suffering man, tbe cancer
commenced healing, strength was imparted U»
my feeble frame, aud when eight bottles had
been used I was one of the happiest of men,
and felt about as well as I ever did.
All pain had vanished, the cancer on my lip
healed, and I was pronounced cured. To
those who are afflicted, and need a blood rem
edy, 1 urge the use of B. B B. as a wonderful
Jy effective, speedy aud cheap blood purifier.

Commencing on tbe present Guber
natorial campaign tbe LaGrange Re
porter says:
“In tiie beat of the strife, many
things are spoken on both sides that
would have been better left unsaid;
but momentary resentment should not
be permitted to sway the mind in so
responsible and sacred a duty as tbe
exercise of the ballot. Vote as you
think, not as you feel, and from prin
ciple, not passion.”
This is go*xl advice and should be
heeded by every voter. When a man
assumes the responsible duty of cast
ing his ballot in the selection of one to
whom is to be. entrusted tbe affairs of
State, he should lay aside partiality
he Should throw off prejudice; he
should carrfully weigh, as best he can-
tbe merits, capacity, aud fitti ess of
those askingliis suffrage,and then with
)roper prudence and discretion, cast
lis ballot accordingly to his better
judgment. Every voter should rise
tnuisceiidently above the low flung
methods of political trickery, and

lonorable plane of true manhood, vote

At a dance in Newark, a drunken

trial, when possibly both will be set

the possibility of imprisoning a i

should be summarily wiped out. Had
the Good Samaritan lived iu these
days, he would have clapped spurs to
his mule as soiu as he saw the man
who had been beaten and left for dead
lest, when the 'robbers were arrested

House of Detention as a witness.
Workers vs. Croakers.
How much better to see a communi
ty bending their efforts to build up
rather than to pull down. Work of
the right kind invigorates, elevates
anil strengthens, but idling, fault
finding aud croakiug debilitate aud
vitiate. To the worker everything as
sumes a cheerful aspect, bat the idle
croaker sees nothing good in society,
nothing good in politics, nothing goot
in schools, nothing good anywhere.
Poor fellow! he is usually disgusted
with his surroundings, and ret be does
not seem inclined to try Sara Jones’
prescrii tiou, “rack out.” We areglad
to believe that croakers are growing
less in number. Let the reduction con
tinue.
Fine Dog.
Washington, (Ga..) Chronicle -
Col. John Q. Adams has a dog
named Jett, that is not a common dog.
Jett iff a thoroughbred terrier, and the
Colonel has to keep him chained to
prevent him from hunting himself to
death. When Jett gets loose, he hunts
the neighborhood over for miles
around, and catches every rabbit he
finds, and as soon as his hunger is sat
isfied, he take what is left of his hares
and deposits* the remnants on the
doorsteps of the nearest neighbor.
Jett looked thin when w*e saw- him last
week, and the Colonel said he had
hunted too much. ~~

prayed for him with great earnestness,
thus: “O lord! bress dis yer dear
