Shortly after our arrival a boat con taining a young officer and several men came up to the ship. The of ficer came on board, and coming aft to where I stood, saluted me, and stated that his orders were report to me for duty. I inquired if there were any hotels in the town. He replied that there were two, -neither of them very good, but one was better than the other, and that he had taken the liberty of securing accommodations it for me. I then got into his boat and went ashore with him, During the passage of the boat from the ship to the ,dock I quired where he learned to speak English. | Tn California,’ he replied, and when queationed stated that he was born there, years before the gold mine fever or Mexican war. His father was at the time of the meeting a welDto do merchant Monterey. He said further that the Russians had settled on - the present site of San Francisco twen ty years before the gold fever. At thattime they were engaged in hunting furs in Alaska and the San Francisco village was a supply depot for the Arctic hunters. When I asked him how he had wandered.so far away from home, he replied that every year the Russian Government takes one son of Russians who serve their Government in foreign countries and either educates them for profession or places them in the army. That is how he explained the matter, and I assure you that ;or a time it rather surprised me. A pair of horses, owned in Cold Spring, L.

The matter being'brought home to them this time it will, perhaps, be an m centive to renewed effort on their part in the production of the fruits of the farm, in the care and rais ing of fine stock to capture the county prizes, and it is likely to stimulate them to greater exertions in all directions. Georgia is a famous state for fairs; we have them every year, from the great expositions to the less pretentious grouping of the state’s resources in the country towns; but so great are the sources, so rapid our industrial growth, it seems we can never have too many exhitions of this character, and each in its turn serves its purpose and advertises Georgia to the world. So let the country newspapers keep the subject before the people, Every county that can afford a lo cal fair should have one, and are 'persuaded that every county in the state is rich enough to have something of the kind, whether be a Piedmont evpesition, or pine forest party—where the prod ucts of the section however great orsmall, could be displayed to the satisfaction and encouragement of the people, According to the Chicago Jour nal, a female customer in a hard ware store rejected four or five pairs of shears because they squeaked. She was finally suited with a pair that didn’t squeak and went' her way. As the accepted pair happened to be one of those first refused, the salesman was ask ed how the metamorphosis was ef fected. “That,” said he, “is one of the very simplest of the secrets of the - man who sells shears. Observe this.” He picked up a pair scissors which “.squeaked” wofully when worked. Then he ran his fingers shougbtfully down the side of his nose and rubbed them over the scissors, which came together as gently and noiselessly as though saturated with oil. “There is al ways a little oil collected in the corners on the outside of one' nostrils,” he said, “and when customer complains that a pair of shears squeak they can be oiled up without exciting suspicion.’ Don’t urge children to take nas- y worm oils.

Best Tiling' He Ever Saw. of The following is an extract ]f Jrqm a letter written by Mr. D. A, Reynolds, editor and proprietor of the Herald, Lyons, Mich., under date of January 11th, 1890: “You will observe that I have given your advertisement position on the first page of the Herald, while other proprietary medicines have had to take the run of the paper. The reason for doing this is, that upon receiving your ‘copy’ a num ber of the cures effected seemed similar to that of which my little son was suffering, a case of blood poison, or irritable sores breaking out all over his body. To-day he is entirely free from disease, and one bottle of Swift’s Specific (S. S. S.) did the work. Now this is the reason for giving you the posi tion, as I consider Swift's Specific (S. S. S.) the best medicine I ever saw. I wish you unlimited suc cess in your business.” The above is a sample of letters which are coming to us all the time, S, S, S. is nearer infallible than any remedy made, and has probably done more good than any medicine known to mankind. We will mail a Treatise on Blood and commis sioners for negro schools, and a complete set of negro officers to deal with' negroes. He would make the political separation of the two races,so complete that a negro and a white man could not vote for each other. This, in brief, is an outline oE the judge’s re markable scheme. It is to be topped that the Mis sissippi convention will not called upon to grapple with many such reforms. The resources statesmanship have their limita tions. They are not capable grasping and settling all the com plications growing out of the pro posed dual government for the races. This is no time for wild experi ments, and the southern people do not intend to make any. When put to the test it will be found that they are as conservative now as their fathers were in the past.
