yon a story. Well,
: way in whicl*to
.Yon ask
as I know
spend the long evening before' us, I will
do ho on one condition. Each must
try his ban d at it when I am through.
'We were weather-bound at a rude
Western inii, almost on the verge of civ
ilization. The day just past had.been-a
stormy one, and we'ii'a^ 'gqt thrptigh ji
as best we could, flow as the darkness
came on early, and ;tjje long evening
loomed up before us, we-gathered about
the roaring fire of h age logs, which burn
ed bravely upon the hearth, and pre
pared to pass it away by story-telling,
a device to which travelers in our situa-
tion are al^£T5|tnjrto resort.. :e ~;..
The one who had been appealed to
for the first story was a man of some 50
years of age, who had followed the oc
cupation of a peddler. He had the best
turnout in the stable which that part of
the country had ever seen in his line,
though he had told us that once he had
for years carried a pack on his back.
But by his own exertions and industry he
had. risen above that now, and had a
snug sum laid up against the time when
lie should give :np the basfhess, and take
the remaining years of his life in an
easier way.
We gave our consent to his condi
tions, and he at once • commenced his
story.
“It is now nearly fifteen years ago
that the adventure befell me wich I am
about to relate.”
“It was before Ijgsve rip my pack, for
a horse andjeart, though I bad.already
made up my mind that I could afford it,
I was traveling through, a wild section
of country—wilder, if possible, than
this about us here. Between the settle
ments there were loDg stretches of for
est filled with wildjbeasts, andj,novr and
then you came upon a band of strolling
savages. ^Besides these there was the
usual class of villains, horse-thieves,
and renegades, who would not hesitate
to take a man’s life, if they thought it
to their ndvautngejto do so so.
“One night I stopped at a tavern
which stood in the midst of a little set
tlement of not more than a dozen log
houses. I had been the round of them,
rod drove what bargains I could, and
in the morning I was to go. on at as ear
ly an hour as possible, for I learned
that I had nearly a score of miles to gp
before I should reach th# next settle
ment.”
< f Jn the evening there was assembled
in the bar-room all of the male deni
zens of the place, and among them was
one whom I at once set down as a vil-
lian. His looks plainly showed that
there was little ho would hesitate to do
if in the end, there "-as any gain. Again I
caught him looking toward my pack,
which I had placed in one corner of ,tlie
room near the bar; and at once I- felt-
sure he was looking at me as thongh
dangerous antagonist in c^e^he^Bhopld.
rob me of it. The mote I saw of him
the less I liked his looks, and I felt re
lieved when at last be left the room for
home.
“I was up betimes the next morning,
and as soon as I had finished imy break
fast I started. As I left the settlement
behind me, I could- not help glancing
about me to make sure that the man of
whom I had formed so poor an opinion
was not following me; but he was not to
be seen. Hardly anyone was stiring
out of doors, and there was little life
except about the tavern, or where the
white smoke curled up above; tho'ioof
of each cabin.
“Once within the forest I, hurried
on, desiring to pat as great a distance sis

“The extra exertion I had. .made, and
the hearty meal of which I had parta

pack under my head, 1 closed niy eyes,
thinking I wcnld take a few minutes’
rest before going on wardj: !
“X did not mean to go to sleep, yet
in less than five minutes I was . uncou
scous of' all that was passing aronnd

It
might have been a few minutes, or it
^pg^ae^fhon^^^awoke
at last with a start and a sense of some
over me. I did
upormove hanef^of fqot
mething; J could not tell wnai,
cboin'hm down. ■*-
"I opened my eyes and looked about
me, bat saw nothing; and I was jnst
on the point of making a-motion lb* get
upon my feet, when I heard the slight
crackling of a branch above my head,
kingfap in the direction of the Mind
ieheid a sight that almost froze the
marrow in my bones, and seemed to
tnrn my blood into ice. A huge pan
ther was crouching there,- ready for a
spring upon me.
“As motionless as (me dead, I lay and
gazed upon my temblor enemy. .To
stii as much as a hand I knew would be
the sighal for the beast to spring upon
me, itefiery eyes were fixed upon my
face, and its tail was gently waving to
and fro like that of a cat.
‘‘Hope of escape there seemed none.
My doom was sealed. The panther
had me as surely in his powerai thongh
at that moment his claws were fastened
in my flesh.
“The agony of those few moments I
shall remember to my dying day. It
haunts me in my sleep, and often I
start up in affright, dreaming that the
terrible ^ Bcene ' is being enacted over
again.
“All at once the fiery eyes of the pan
ther were turned from me, and fixed
upon some object a.little to the right.
What could it mean? What new dan-
ger was approaching me from that di
rection? By tnrning-my-head- a little,
I was enabled to see what it was, A
man was creeping towird ms with a
knife in his hand. He was not a dozen
feet from where I lay, and at tho first
glance I recognized him.
“It was the man whom I had made
up my mind was a villian in the tavern
the night before, and whom.I feared all
the forenoon might- be ; following me.
The presentment I had was notgronnd-
’lets/them; Bnt I had not counted: on a
double danger.
‘{Gautronsly the Villian 'crept toward
me, with a muidcrous look in hiaface.
A glance showed me thatone thing was
evident. The villian, while he sought
to murder me, wasuot aware of his own
danger, for tlie panther no longer kept
its eyes fixed upon me. It was .watching
e\erv motion of the villain, and each
instant I expected that it would leap'
down upon him.
“If it would OLly do so before be
reached my side, it would prove my
salvation.
“Closer and 'closer the villain drew
tome. Only a moment more,, and he
wotrld*” be ^o’uear ine that he could
reach me with his outstretched hand.
There was not an instant to he lost,
and I was just on the point of spring

of lightning, the panther cleft the air,
and landed squarely upon the shoulders
are dissatisfied with the verdict in this
case, just as was a majority of the Sen
ate and an overwhelming majority of
the House. Nineteen-twentieths of the
Georgia Democrats, or even a greater
proportion of them, if .public sentiment
in Hancock is a fair index to general
sentiment, lire utterly outraged at the
wretched state of morals that have been
shown to exist in some of the public
offices in Atlanta. The corrupt ring in
in toe capital, with their friends
thronght the State, do not constitute
more than' one-twentieth of-the party.
How absurd, then, is.it fora man who
is sickened by these disgusting revela
tions of fraud in the capital, to talk
about quitting the party L The public;
officials m Atlanta do not constitute the
party in the State, andr the corrupt
men there do not represent the party.
It is the duty of the people of Georgia
to break down this miserable ring,
which is in a minority in Atlanta jnst
as itas elsewhere in the State. Is.it
necessary to break tip the party in
order to accomplish this end? Cannot
the nineteen-twentieths give tone to the
party? Cannot nineteen men manage
one man? Is it wise or courageous for
the majority to sur render their party
organization to so pitiful a minority?
Let the good men in the party control
its nominations. Let them put honest
and competent men in office, and these
mi
pie to control the nominations of .the.
party.. Let the people: break up the

CATCHING COLD.
“Colds” are among the unsolved
medical problems, . They used to be
thought to bo due to the suppression
of the excretions of the skin; bnt this
takes place whenever the surface is ex
posed to cold, and often without harm
and colds are sometimes taken when
only a few square inches of-surface are
exposed. It’is a fact, top, that men
and animals may be varmshed witho
producing ^kecm-mrit iWnf "a. cold.
Still, the '<5rdlnary medical view is
that, the passage off of effete matter
being checked, the blood is altered in
character. The cor±upted blood then
in its turn affects the heat-regulating
apparatus. ’
A cold is a slight fever.. It begins
with chilly sensation, followed by heat.
The fever ruus its course in a day or
two. Like other fevers, however, i
may have various complications.
Hence rheumatic pains, headache, nasal
catarrh, sore .throaty catarrh of the intes
tines herpes labialis^-^ruptions around

Sweating, whether by medicines ad
ministered internally or otherwise, is
the main reliance hastening a care.

SOME NATURAL HISTORY—THE
EDITOR.
“What ferocions—looking animal is
this?”
“That is the editor.”
“Indeed! Are they very danger-
ous?”
“Sometimes. When cornered up they
have been known to be quite combat
ive, and again they have been known
to go through a convenient back’ win
dow. Generally they are mild and pas
sive,”
“When are they most dangerous?”
“When intruded npon “by a book-
agent who 'wants a forty line local for
a seventy-five cent book, or by a poet
with verses about gentle spring.”
•-‘Are editors cross to each other?”
“Only when separated by several
blocks of bailings.”
“Do they often have fearful combats
with each other?”
“Occasionally, when they go ont in
opposite directions, and come npon
each other by acoident.”
“Are editors cowhided?”
Sometimes the smaller ones are, bnt
the big ones are very rarely molested.”
“Dp editors eat?”
“They do. It was formerly supposed
that they ate at long intervals and up
on rare occasions, bat it is now a well
authenticated fact that they can eat a
great deal when they can get it.”
“What kind of food do they like
most?”
‘•They are not very particular.—
While they don’t refuse qnail on toast,
fried crab or tdast turkey about Christ
mas time, they have been known to
make a Hearty repast off a dish of cold
turnips and a/consumptive herring.
“Can they eat concert .tickets?”
“We believe not, Some people have
gained 'thieeonfigaous impression from
false teachings in early life, bnt no au
thenticated instance of shell a thing is
on record.

A WATER BALLOON-
In September 1879 there was in the
harbor of Kid, Germany ; a very interes
ting esperiment to raise heavy weights,
according to the method of Mr. Beith,
a chemist of Hannover. The experi
ment was made in the presence of the
Imperial admiralty. This new method
is based npon the fact that carbonic
acid gas can be liquified by an enor
mous pressure and reduced to gas again
by removal of the pressure. For said
experiment a block- of granite, of the
weight of 35.000 lbs was sunk in the
harbor. A diver descended to the bot
tom and fastened to the stone ah iron
cylinder, filled with liquid carbonic
acid. From this cylinder five tubes,
closed by faucets, communicated with a
folded balk on, made of sa 1-clotb, and
.of fifteen centimeter capacity,
The diver reappeared on the surface
with the announcement, that he had
opened the five fancets, according to
instruction . According to the statement
of the inventor the balloon now of ne
cessity was filled, witn gaseous carbonic
add and wonld raise the stone jnst an-
: der the surface of the water, as car
bonic acid is fighter than water and
heavier than atmosphere air.
The spectators stoi d in a great expec
tation. After eight minntes the supe
rior sphere af the balloon appeared on
the surface, carrying nnder itself the
heavy block of granite, like a basket.
With coinpantively small forie the bal
loon could be moved to and fro npon
the surface of the water, carrying the
stone along.
The experiments are to be repeated
in a greater proportion and according
to the opinion of experts this new in
vention will create a. new era in the
raising of ships.—Translated for The
Home Journal.
The Massachusetts republicans •com
plain of Beast Butler that he voted fifty
times or more for Jeffeison Davis for
president in the Charleston Democratic
convention in 1860. They sent Him to
congress several years, however, before
they found it out. If he never did
anything worse than that, he would
have our best wishes for success for the
gubernatorial chair of Massachusetts.
