Hand to hand, shoulder to shoul- er, in the most perfect union that ever reconciled two once embitter ed and divided sections of onr common country, the people of Hew England are working with the people of the south. They have come, they are coming, to us from her far bleak bills and valleys, not as travelers of a day, impelled by curiosity; not seeking to revive the memories of our battle-fields, look ing for blood-stains npon the white brests of the daisies that cover the graves of war; but they have come forgiving and forgetful, even as we have forgiven and forgot in the new life which has dawned on ns, in the new conditions which sur round us, and have cast their lots with ns for the upbuilding of the south, whose wealth has wooed them, whose unlimited resources give such rare promise of rich re wards. And while a few of their brethren, who have only seen the south as the old south of the war, pictured with prejudice in the col umns of a partisan press, remain at Bbme and preach dull sectional sermons to us, these, wiser in their day and generation, with coats off and sleeves rolled up, are toiling side by side with southern men in prosperous southern cities. A paper lies on our exchange table, “The New England City .Record.” It is not a great news paper, such as the journals pub lished in the old New England, but it does not come from that part of the country, it is nearer home than that. Iu the valleys of Dade county, Georgia, as if “by a stroke of the enchanter's wand,”.a new city of the north has risen, and at its christening, in southern dew and sunlight, this name was given it by the men who made it. It is a model New England City, where northern brains and capital abound, where northern men have found a home and northern energy and en terprise are doing wonders; they are tearing down the rocks and turning the sod of the fertile val leys; they are delving in the mines and bringing the golden secrets of their depths to light; they are building up and brightening the whole country; and the whir of their factories, the roar of their furnaces, the shrill sound of their steam whistles will yet be heard in the cities of the far north and bring still greater colonies to the sonth. A New England city in the south! And still there are people who think the war is going on; who think that every mighty blast which rends a rock and lays bare its sil ver veins is ominous with wrath, and but the roar of cannon trained upon them! who spend their lives in theorizing over so-called souths ern problems, while their brethren are growing up and getting rich with the new south, where they find no problems at all. The good that this yankee city in the north Georgia hills will do for the south—the good the sonth will do for it—cannot be estimated. It is bound to be of benefit, not only to the men who control it, hut to every southern man, for from its hills and valleys will go out a fraternizing influence which will bring ns into closer touch and union with the old New England cities that know so little of ns. Bat these northern cities are blossoming everywhere in the south, and more especially in Geor gia. We strike hands with north ern men wherever we go; we find them by the hundreds in Talla poosa; we find a model yankee city in Domorest; we hear the whir of their engines in the mills of Co lumbus; we meet them in great numbers camped in the iron fields of Georgia, laying off new towns, that seems to spring up in a night; in long excursion trains from the north, the east and west, they come to us daily, and come to stay. All over the south they are building cities of their own, mingling with us in business, so that it is hard to tell the northern from the southern man in this great union of inter ests. They find no race problems, no problems of any sort; they find business only, and they __ become busy themselves. Let them go on with the work of city-building in the sonth. There is plenty of room for them, and a right royal welcome for all! We want to make this country a new south indeed, as well as name; and we want our- northern friends to help us in the work, and still by their presence and co-operation to- cement the ties which bind us to gether as brothers all, and citizens of one common country!

The keep good faith, or come as near Styles of men’s hats and the con- pretenses of any kind, bat mnst be earned by a strict observance of contracts, agreements and prom ises. The man whose word is good as his bond” is the man who has inspired confidence in himself by always doing that which he has promised to do. He is also, rule, cautious about entering into obligations, chary about making promises he may not * be able to fulfill. If too prodigal in the lat ter respect one cannot hope to keep faith at all times. The man who is or intends to be honest sometimes loses credit and reputation simply because he is too hopeful. Counting with too great confidence on uncertainties, he makes promises he cannot fulfill because of the failure of the event on which they were predicated. He voluntarily fixes the date for the payment of a debt, and finds too late something has gone wrong, so that he cannot meet his obliga tion. Such an accident may hap pen to any man." Upon the way in which he meets the unexpected trouble depends how his reputa tion shall stand afterwards. If he can fulfill his promises at any per sonal sacrifice he should do so; failing that, he should endeavor to keep his promise by borrowing elsewhere, thus gaining time for the final discharge of his obliga tion. Bat if he cannot do either, he should go as soon as possible to his creditor aud secure an exten sion by frankly telling him the saying that “fright made his hair stand on end,” is not founded on imagination, bnt is a physiological fact. The poets,, as far hack as the author of the book of Job, are full of references to this phenomenon. In the lower animals the mnscles that erect the hair are more high ly developed than in man. The manufacture of hair takes place in the follicle. The hair has neither circulation nor blood ves sels. The finest pointed needle is dnll compared with the point of hair. Hairs do not rise perpen dicularly from the crown of the head, but at an aente angle, Blonde hair is usually the finest, and black or red the coarsest A black-haired girl averages 88,000 and a blonde 140,000. A Michi gander js on record who had a beard 7 feet 6| inches long. When cut frequently, hair grows at the rate of half an inch a month. The statement that hair- grows after death has no scientific foundation, A hair twenty inches long can be stretched to twenty-four or twenty-five inches. One of.the dangerous oroperties of the hair is that it encourages sparking —electrical and other kinds. Hair absorbs moisture, as many -a lady who goes to a party on a foggy nigh't knows to her cost. A hair from the heard will sustain weight of six ounces. A good head of hair made into a rope will sus tain a weight of nine or ten tons. The hair can be preserved by a good shampooing once m ten days to it as possible. The worst pos sible coarse is to let time ran -on until his creditors begin to press him on an obligation long overdue. It is too late then for explanations or renewals. ' His credit is gone; his reputation is broken down. His after promises are distrusted, though they may be grudgingly accepted. He may for years after thas shattering faith in himself pay promptly and keep his word, but there will remain the lingering feeling of distrust born of one fail ure to keep faith or to explain in advance the reason why it coaid not be kept. An engagement of any kind should he held sacred, and thus good reputation, which is of very slow growth, may be gradually built up, for he who keeps his word at all times be comes respected aud is trusted. The young man cannot learn too early in life his responsibility to himself and others. He is to make his reputation by what he says and does, and at the outset should have high regard for truth, which car ries with -it honesty, and insnres a prompt and complete fulfillment of all engagements. He should not allow a careless habit in money matters to grow upon him, but should pay all his bills promptly. There is an im plied promise to pay at the end of the month, or when the bill may he presented, even though there has been no engagement to do so made in so many words, and it is a good practice to keep these im- plied as well as other promises with scrupulous care. Such a course will in time establish a rep utation whose value cannot he measured by money, besides de veloping useful habits and keep ing one free from oppressive and grinding debts.

The Democratic party is the only party which is capable of giving to the people what Mr. Til- den promised to them in 1876 and what they need now more than ever before, “Reform and better times. 1 What the country needs is greater commercial and industrial freedom, the building up of all interests har moniously and together and the abandonment of the existing Re publican programme of making the Government a partner in every enterprise and the dispenser of aid to every undertaking. The Demo cratic party propose to give, to the farmers of the United States the only adequate remedy for the ills from which they are suffering, a better market for everything which they produce. The Democratic party}Jproposes to give a vast stim ulous to the languishing manufac tures of the country by admitting free of duty the necessary mater ials for consumption in onr shops and mills, and thus giving employ ment tojthousands of men who are now idle and to millions of capital which cannot now find productive investment.

To achieve these results it is necessary that the Democrats of the United States shall Btand by their party and by their principles. We published last week the pro ceedings of the convention of farm ers, calling themselves Democrats, in South Carolina, who have nomi nated B. R. Tillman for Governor of that State. With some of the declarations of this convention Democrats every where mnst sym pathize, but if the Democratic farmers of all the states were to abandon their party organizations and start a new movement of this kind, how large a majority should we he likely to seenre in the House of Representatives in the Fifty- second Congress? We say to Democrats everywhere now, more thari ever before, it is important to sustain your national leaders and to carry out the ideas which render Democratic suprem acy in the National Government and a restoration of property in every interest and section abso lutely identical and absolutely sure. Why should any Democrat aban don the great party to which he be longs for secret organizations com mitted only to the advancement of interests of special classes or inter ests? True Democracy means that the interests of the whole people are identical, and honest politics reqnires no secrecy and no novel organizations for its advancement It is nothing short of treason to the Democratic party to support, ever for a temporary purpose, any party or any movement which is not based on the bed-rock of Dem- ocratc principles and which is not absolutely and incontrovertibly Democratic in purpose as well as in name. Dr. John Ball’s Sarsaparilla. Our druggists tell us they are selling a great deal of Dr. John Ball’s Sarsaparilla. It has not been advertised maeh in this vicin ity, and we take it that the large demand for it is attributed merely to its extraordinary merit as a blood purifier and strengthening altera tive. We know of several instances where it has put sick ' men and women on their feet after physi- cans had exhausted their skill. It is a medicine that certainly goes right to the spot, the very first dose seeming to do good. The blood is the life and we believe there-is no other medicine made so powerful as a blood purifier as this remedy. How Hailstones are Formed. San Franeisco Chronicle, The showers of hailstones that have fallen with unusual frequen cy in the past week have afforded irfH^h enjoymentito young Califor nia. Hib father has wagged his head gravely, and sadly informed his progeny tfeit hailstones were unknown in the state when he was a boy. Many recalled the time when a hailstone, in a casing of salt was brought from the Sierra and exhibited in the old Miner’s Retreat saloon, on Commercial street, at two bits a look.<■ Aftervit had been shown for a week, an acL venturous spirit, doubting its gen uineness, dropped it into his toddy when it was discovered that' the hailstone was a base imitation.' The showers have been fre quent and violent lately. The manufacture of hailstones is con ducted at a high, attitude. When a storm comes on there is rash of cold air upward, which catches falling raindrops and bears them heavenward. Then drops pass through a cold cloud and get con gealed; they become heavy and fall hack into the rain cloud, where a coat water adheres to them Caught up again they are carried into the snow and take on an oth er jacket; and so the process goes on nntii a large stone is formed, which, with it companions, escapes from the current of air, and comes tumbling to the ground. If a hailstone is cat in two, the ^layers of ice and snow may he seen with the naked eye. The small, ordina ry hailstone starts as a raindrop, but achieves its new dignity be fore it teaches the ground. Hail stones are most frequent when the temperature conditions are most uneven. It has been very cold in the North, and very warm in the South lately, and the currents of air coming from these sections have caused the abnormal fall. hlocd is made pure a person natur ally gets well.
