Isabella, Ga., April 2». —TVorfij Superior Court convened ■here Monday morning last and ad journed yesterday evening. Judge Bower presided in his usual able man ner, and .Solicitor Spence was in his usual place, to carry terror to Worth's evil-doers. Several attorneys were sick or off on leave of absence, and no important civil cases were tried, though several •were settled by mutual agreement or otherwise, and the civil docket, while not cleared, was greatly reduced. Tlifr criminal docket was taken up Wednesday morning, and the jail ■cleared and several bonded cases dis posed of. There were three convic tions and four plens of guilty. The following were the sentences: Joe Floyd, n boy of 16, being con victed of burglary, was sentenced to two years in the penitentiary. He was a hardened oase, and took his sentence as an invitation to a frolic.'He said he was coming back to do worse when Ills sentence expired. He said the cply reason he did not get any money was because he could not get into the safe, and the bell nt the ensh drawer scared him off. Emanuel Hill,convicted of attempted assault, will dance to the tune of $100 and costs or twelve months on the ■chain gang. Barney Beal plead guilty to larceny 'from house, and will pay $75 or work for the State twelve months. Barney Beal, concealed weapon's; plea of guilty; sentence $40 or twelve months. - Bailee Dawson, gambling; verdict guilty; selitence $25 or twelve months. Charley Powell, cruelty to animals; plea of guilty; sentence $30 or six months. Charley Powell, stnbbing; plea of guilty; sentence$50 or twelve months. There being no more cases availa ble, or which the State was ready to try, court adjournd. —In their, general presentments, the ■Grand Jury recommended that Judge W. T. Jones be paid $100 for legal ser vices; Col.J. G. Polhill $60 for same, and T. M. Lippltt, Ordinary, be paid $250 for services rendered tlip county. All the public buildings were found in good condition except one of the pau per houses, nnd all the county roads and bridges in good condition except Isabella and Fowler’s still road, and Sumner and Sycamore road. The books of ail, the county officers, in cluding district officers, were found O. K. exoept Ordinary’s books, which coaid not be passed upon until differ ences between the Ordinary and book committee were adjusted. , The County School Commissioner was warmly indorsed. Three vacan cies were filled on the School Board. A reward of $100 was offered for the absent witness in the case of the Kearce Negroes. Judge Bower and the Solicitor were warmly Indorsed and recommended for re-election. The genernl presentments were sound and conservative, and rellect credit on the Grand Jury, which was composed of Worth’s best citizens. —The event of the week was the speech of Col. Wooten on Tuesday, and the debate between him nnd Mr. Lang, of Dawson, on the following day. Col. Wooten's speech was an ap- peal for straight-out, unadulterated Democracy* which he believed to be the farmer’s most available relief from ■oppression. He was enthusiastically applauded throughout. Towards the close of his speech he accused Mr. Stevens of cojunction with the Third Party, nnd trying to carry its points under a guise of Democracy, and pro duced documents which conclusively proved it. He was interrupted by friends of Mr. Stevens, but tossed them so far that the effect would have been better had there been no. inter, ruption. He spoke an hour and a half. In Mr. Lang’s reply next day, he be. ; gan by saying Mr. Stevens was a Dem. ocrat, and seeking a Democratic nom. ination on the Ocala platform, which bas been superceded by the St Louis IGod save such a Democrat, nothing ■else can). He then accused Col Wooten of seeking the nomination of the Cuthbert meeting, and then bib terly attacked the Democratic Execu tive Committee of the ScAsnd district, calling them old rats, demagogues, conspirators and sore-heads, with the penitentiary in near prospect. This part of his argument showed that he was either pitifully ignorant of .the laws of his country and the duty of a party executive committee, or that he was deliberately trying to deueive those who were ignorant. He was frequently cheered, but those who were loudest and most enthusiastio in their cheering were men Who are well known in this county to be of string Third Par,ty proclivities, and their ac tion showed that Lang was voicing their sentiments. ~ inentraniw tumbling about 1 his rare under a centre-shot ffblh Col. Wooten, who asked him, “Will Mr. Stevens, if nominated, support the Chicago. plat form of the Democratic party?” Mr. Lang knew tlint if he answered in the affirmative that it would kill Mr. Stev ens with the Third Party men, and that If he answerdd in the negative he would admit everything Col. Wooten charged, so he said that he “could not say; that Mr. Stevens was an Ocala Democrat.” (Although lie canie here to make a speech for Mr. Stevens, be was not prepared to say whether he wns n Democrat or not). Mr. Lnng spoke an hour. 4 When the same question was asked Col. Wooten, he answered without hes itation, Yes. unqualifiedly, I will I” It only took Col. Wooten twenty-live minutes to wipe up the fragments which ills question had left, nnd, after a good deal of cheering, the crowd went to dinner. If Mr. Stevens Is going to have his peaking done by proxy, why not let mn be elected by proxy? L 11. LIVE CLOSE TO THE HONK. I’nvrrlj Thnl l.nclct the Ccult to Ho Much nt it l.rtuou.

Ob, that other lialf of tbo world. If you have never experienced it iiow can you tell how it lives? There is one incident told by a pale-faced tenement- house resident. She has seen prosper ous days, but now lias, or had, only a sick husband and four little children “Ope needs so many things I” she sighed plaintively. “One day last week I was out of coal and I sent out for a bushel, but I only Imd 8 cents; the coal whs nine. The coal man said he would wait until I could pay the rest. Then my liusbnnd wnnted a sour drink. He had a burning fever, poor fellow, and wanted a lemon so bad,” she stopped her flying necdlcjust long enough to wipe away a tear—there were other mouths to be fed—“but I didn’t have the 2c ents to buy tile lemon—and—and—I couldn’t get it.” Then she broke entirely down and sobbed aloud witli her apron over her face “Oil, it seems as if I wouldn’t have felt half so bad when I saw ills dear, dead face in the coffin yesterday if I hadn’t thought bow he wnnted that drink and I could not get it, I wake up in tile night nnd think of it until it seems as if it will drive mo wild?” Then she choked back the sobs and hurried on with her work. The woman’s earnings by innkiug pants at 85 cents per dozen grow smaller with every moment taken for tears. But can you imagine it?

NKinilUOJtM IIIMOKI 1V11 It may be of Interest to many of the IIkkald readers to know the exact purpose for which the money made at the spelling bo of Thursday. evening was used. There are nearly, if not quite, one hundred Confederate sol diers buried in the Albnny cemetery, nnd among them are tile graves of seven whose identity is yet unknown. Until a year ago, two of those graves were in a neglected condition in an old part of the cemetery. It had for sonic time been tile intention of the Memorial Association to have those two graves moved up to the square in which were interred the other live of the unknown soldiers.' But nothing ill particular was done until Mrs. C. M. Clark took the matter in linnd and raised at lier Confederate concert last spring nearly enough money to com plete what needed to be done. Tlie two bodies wero moved, the graves bricked over and the square put in good condition. But the work has never been all paid for—a small debt having remained until since the spelling bee. That fun-provoking contest resulted in about $35, as the Herald readers already know. The ninount wns at once applied on the old debt and settled it up, leaving Mrs. Clark with four or live dollars on band. Tlint amount wns nt once turned pver to tile President of tile Memorial As sociation to be added to the Confeder ate Monument fund. Tliis is good work, and the lady whose energy nnd patriotic devotion lins accomplished it is deserving of publio gratitude. A monument needs now to be ereoted to perpetuate the memory of these soldiers—our Confed erate dead. Will not some one else, moved by love and reverence for the heroes of our sunny Southland, take the matter in hnnd nnd rest not until a suitable monument is erected over their graves? A monument that speaks of a com munity’s remembrance of its heroes, loved and lost. I was.a good deal impressed by a sermon I heard Sunday. It wns on the subject of “broad-mindedness;” or the ohnrlty that should be exercised in criticising our fellow oreatnres. The minister spoke forcibly of the hn- ClirUtinn-lIkc wav in wliloli the ma jority of people criticise the actions of those around them. No one is secure from the biting tongue of unfriendly comment. Among other good things, this minister said that “unkind com ment, that slurs expressed in the shrug of a shoulder, the uplifting of no eyebrow, were the most harmful, and nt the same time tlie most degrad ing kind of criticism. It meant the most 111 to the object of the unfnvor- nble coinnieiit, nnd reflected (lie most discredit to tlxTone mean enough to indulge in It.” The minister wns right, was lie not? .*# Other tilings ennie to mind nt that Sunday meeting. They were uncom fortable thoughts, suggested by a con versation overheard on my way there, A group of young men stood on a cor ner discussing which church they should attend, nnd ’the discussion re sulted in a decision to attend a service at wliloli It wns known there would bo good muslo. Music was tlie attraction and not the gospel to be preached from the pulpjt. Where is that pure spirit of divine worship tlint should permeate a congregation listening to tlie expounding of the Word of God? Are Sunday services renlly degener ating into assemblages where you may hear good music, exhibit good clothes and observe your friends to comment on their appearance?

UEALTIIV IIINTH. Insomnia Cure.—One of tho ablest physicians in tlie country, nnd one who lias been uniformly successful in the treatment of nervous diseases, recommends a bandage of very thin woolen material or of silk, to he bound around the forehead nnd worn at night. This is recommended us nil al most unfailing cure for insomnia. If the face,the sides of the throat and ears nre thoroughly rubbed with line oil or vaseline, n cold will usually dis appear within two or three nights. It is safe to say that one-half of the colds, and consequently a great many of the more severe ills of life, would vanish if people realized that it is ns iwccs- sary to proteot the head at night as it is in the daytime. How to Keep Eyes Bright.—We gratefully hail any suggestion so harmless as this one offered by a Frenchwoman ; Never rub your eyes, nor allow your children to do so fronp their cradles. Veils are bad for the sight, especially those spotted or cov ered with a pattern; so eschew veils when you can, or wear the softest, clearest net when obliged to do so. Never read in bed or when lying on n sofa. Sit with your back to tlie light when engaged in reading or working. Do not read, write or work longer than two hours together without rest ing your eyes and closing them fully live minutes. Attend to the digestion, for did not Milton declare his blind ness to proceed from the effects of dyspepsia? If the eycs.be weak bathe them in a basin of soft wnter, which should be as liot as could be borne. Tired, red and swollen-looking■ eyes and eyelids are rested and relieved by frequent swabbing with hot water. Here*, a Goad One Thai*. I.cnlied Oat* There were a couple of young gen tlemen (?) making calls in a certain portion of the city a few days ago, whose clothes didn’t fit exactly as if they were made by a Broadway tailor. It wns the intention of the gentlemen in question to keep the publio from be ing nwnro of their presence in Al bany, hut. by some means the fact leaked out, and their caution (if any was used) nvniled nothing. At a certain hour one day last week (wo young ladies, both well known in Albany society, were seen to enter the residence of a young lady friend, but they ne’er came back again. Instead couple of stylishly-dressed young gentlemen, (although their clothes seemed to have been made with nn ample allowance for future growth on the pnrt of the wearers) shortly made their appearnnee, and entering the home of a certain Indy, requested the servant to announce to the mis tress of tlie house that a couple of young gentlemen desired her presence in the parlor, Mrs. entered the parlor,and what was her surprise to recognize two of her young lady friends, rigged out, one in the business suit, the other in the Sunday-go-to-meetings of a young man, also well known in tlie city. They made quite a lengthy call, and then returned to tlie scene of their first transformation, where a second change was wrought, and they were once more blushing maidens; A little four year old got off a good one on one of the pair. lie had seen and recognized them both and after wards made this remark: “Miss —- don’t make a good boy, cause her feet’s too little, but Miss make a good boy, ’cause iier feet’s big nn’ rusty.” The escapade isn’t generally known, but the young ladiesjare trembling in From tho Now York Sun. • Thou slialt nut wear horizontal nr diagonal lines, bright materials, or a profusion of decoration.

It was to the pirate class that the Columhi be longed, and of all the corsairs of the day they woro the most renowned. Tlie eldor Columbus had apparently lain in wait in vain for tho rich fleet tlint sailed yearly to tho north. But ho had a son, known ns Columbus Junior, who fol lowed tho snino profession and whose true name was Nicolo Uriogo, or Nich olas tho Grook. Ho nt last succoode-1 in tlie project whioh his father had so long essayed in vain. The prize wns a tempt ing one to tlio bold bliccanoors. Tlie Flanders galleys with tlioir freight wore vnluod at 200,000 ducats—perhaps $3,000, 000—and would have proved an immune fortune to tne captors could tlioy have retained tlio spoil. In 1485 tlio galleys wore equipped with unusual enre. Wo linvo the decree or tho sonnto under which they sot sail. Tlio Dogo Giovanni Monconigo appoint' the noble Bartolomeo Minio captain with a salary of 000 ducats. Four groat galloys nro provided, and to eucli cap tain n bounty of 8,500 golden (incuts ii promised upon tlioir Bufo return to Von- ico. This inonoy was to bo paid out of tho tax on tho Jows, nnd calls up anew Shakosponro's unreal picture; it is plain that tlio merchants of Venice wore the true Shylocks of tho time. A medical man was assigned to tbofleot; hig salary was only liino ducats a month. Miimtu rules are givon for tho con duotof the expedition. Tho freight is to ho paid to tlio state. No decklnads of tin or pewter ware nre allowed, no currants nor molasBos are to ho- stored in tlio hold. Two galleys wore to go I London or the English ports,' the rest u SluyB or Bruges. On their passuge tlioy might toucli nt Malaga and other purl in Spain; on their return a ship was ue tactical to trudo with the Mqhaniuioiliiti- along tho Bnrbary Bhoro. The Vonc tbuis were too keen traders not to line profitable markets oven in tho lands o'. the infidol. Tho Colmnhi or tho Griogos wero at last to seize their prize. Tlioy watched with seven ships—powerful, no doubt and well oquipped—off tho Spnnisii 00.U' to Intercept tlio floot of Eartolonu Minio. Tlio commander of tlio pirate:, was Nicolo Oriego, tlio son, w« are to’..', of tho older Columbus. His fatlior liail disappeared from sight. But witli hill in the pirate ships was another Colum bus, tho future discoverer nnd admiral of tho Indies. In his "Life" Fernando Columbus boasts of his futher's sliuro in this famous ongugomont—famous bo- causo it led to tho sottlomont of Colum bus nt Lisbon, liis marriage and his fn turo oxploits. , Ho was now a man of at least fifty hardened by tliirty-six years of oousolos udvonturo. Wlint position hqjiold in tho pirate fleet, whether as commander or seaman, his son does not tell. We only know that he served under hie relative, Columbus or Griogo, and that he fought with desperate energy in the famous sea fight of Cape St. Vincent. Tlio corsairs, or Colmnki, approached their prey In the evening. They waited all night on the still Atlantic, and in the morning ruBhed upon tho Venetians. It was sever., perhaps eight, ships against four. Tlie galleys were heavy laden and unmanageable compared to tlioir swift assailants. The Columbi bad ovi dently resolvod to make sure at their prey. They sailed under the Frencli flag, and may have been fitted ont in Genoa. It was tho custom of the pirates it seems, to assume false colors. But dreadful was the contest and fierce the fight that raged all day, as Columbus had told his son, on the tranquil Sea ttle scene, nearly four centuries later, of tho battle of St. Vincent—and his narra tive is confirmed by the Venetian ar chives. The four great galleys under Bartolomeo Minio defended themselves with unfailing courage. From the first to the twentieth hour they heat off their savage assailants. Tho ships.grnppled with each other and fought hand to hand. They used, we are told, artificial fire, and the 'pirates fastened their ships to the galleys by hooks and iron chains. Then, no doubt, they boarded and were at last success ful. And then Fernando Colon relates tho romantic incident that led, he thinks, to the discovery of a new world. The ship in which his father fought was Joshed by chains and hooks to a great Venetian galley. The Venetians seem to have set Columbus' ship on fire. The flames consumed both vessels. The only resource left to the survivors was to leap into the sea. Columbus, an excellent swimmer, seized an <&r that floated near him, and partly resting on it and partly swimming, sustained himself in the water. He knew that he was abon t six miles from the land, the coast of Portugal, anil madojiis way toward it. Wearied, half inanimate, he was dashed upon the shore. He had much difficulty in reviving himself. But he was near Lisbon and made liie way, a shipwrecked, penniless seaman, to the Portuguese capital.—Eugono Law rence in Harper's.
