—Tom EUis and Turmpseed are two
“geninien >b color.’ Tom resides at
t'ovejov, while Berry has his hab
iw .ion within the hall »w.*d vicinrg
Mi. Pleasant Church, in this
county. Berry’s norma] financi ,1
condition i* one oi chronic ini
pecuniosity. and about this ime last
Lu- he ac- o ted Tom and importuned
him tor the loan ot a certain sum of
irwiipy Tom generously aceom
modated him, with the undemanding
that the loan was to be prmptly
,ep#id. Days merged into weeks,
howev r, and weeks into mentis,
hut Berry failed to make his promts
good. In vain Tom adjured him to
repay the loan, each time pouring into
Pis unsymptubetib ear tales of va¬
rious commissary straits and domes, io
distresses that might be relieved by
a judicious use of the money so
Unfeelingly ami selfishly withheld
hy the impecunious bin owes. Tom
finally waxed wroth over the wrongs
heaped upon him by tie neighbor,
a nd decided when he next saw Berry
to square the account in some way.
If he got the iTiomy, all right;—it he
1 wiled to get money, lie u d take
it out in gore. Last Tuesday night
Berry vis'ted Lov» joy IHTI
skylarking expedition, and the first
man lie n et was Ins inquiring friend,
Tom. As usual,Tore wanted money:
fcs usuel, Berry didn’t have it—didn’t,
kDOw when he would have it, etc.
Thereupon, Tom gathered a chair
and struck his recalcitrant debtor
uvo or three shary blows on the head.
Berry closed in upon him at this
juncture, and gathering Toni’s ear
between his, teeth, succeeded in
severing that, ornamental membej
from Ifis head as smoothly arid
completely as it it had been done
with a knile. Berry ejected the
fragment ot anttomy from IBs mouth
and went on his vuty rejoicing Tom
gathered up the remains of his
auricular appendagd and brought it
to McDonough last Wednesday,
intending to submit it to (he grand
jury as a supplement so his bill of
woes and procure a warrant for
Berry’s arrest. The assault having
been committed in Clayton county,
however, be was very much d.scour
aged when told that our grand jury
bad uo jurisdiction in his case, and
as he lift town he presented the ap.
pea ranee of a man who was not ou v
I teerated h. body but dtely and sadly
perturbed in spirit.
The following sensible and forcible
paragraph enpo.scd dy the Auguita
News, is Horn the Athens Brunei
Watchman. We have been of the
opiuiou fora long while that it is the
conduct of Democrats that stirs up
the colored people to action. They
are willing to concede that the white
people alone know how and adminis¬
ter the government consequently
know that their ignorance unfit them
for any of ahe offices in the land.
But here is the article;
No country is safe wher ignorance
und vice holds the balance of dower
ever intelligence and virtue—and this
state of affairs is now threatening the
South, and Georiga especially. The
color line has got to be drawn in
politics, and the sooner it is done the
better for tTe country and both races.
We belivein giving the negro every pro
tection in life, liberty and proyerly but
we are an advocate of making liitn
shinny on hi* own side. A Democratic
party cannot save the South, but a
wnite man’s party can and will do so.
Let the Caucasian race combine and
work together leaving the negro upon
his own resources. Let us frown down
any white man who seeks to drag them
into politics, and cast him owrboard a3
a Jonas. Left alone the negro will give
us no trouble, bnt when designing and
unscrupulous white man attempt to drag
him into politics, to be used as a too
for I heir advancement, then he become
an instrument of danger and degreda
tion.

Tha Preacher’s Quiet Habits.
Sedentary and studious men scrtie
times become prostrated before they
know it. Those who spend much
time in dose mental work and neg
lect to take enough exercise often
find their stomachs A..„ to do the
work of digestion. The liver be
comes torpid. The bowels act ir¬
regularly. The brain refuses to
serve as it once did. Their preaching
becomes a failure, and there is a state
of general misery. So many minis*
ters have been restored to health by
the use of Brown’s Iron Bitters that
the. their clergy friends generally of this medicine are speaking as" the to
very best tonic and restorer f they
know of. It restores thin and watery
blood to its proper condition by ton¬
ing invigorating it up with the purest and most
science has preparation of iron that
ever made. It is pleas¬
ant to take, and acts immediately
with the happiest results, not only
on the parsons, but on other folks
as well.
