The Legislature of West Virginia
is still balloting for United States
Senator.
The resignations of Secretary
Manning and Mr. Jordan are in the
hands of the President.
The city council of Atlanta, have
passed an ordinance prohibiting
the sale of agaric. Now if they will
prohibit the sale of wine they will
have done a great work for progres¬
sive Atlanta.
The Atlanta fire Masters and
Chief Joyner, have gone to Chica¬
go to give to the fire department of
the Western City some few dots
about the workings of the great
fire department of Atlanta.
One of the most sudden “flops’’
we have ever observed, was the one
by which the Atlanta Constitution
became a jlrotectionist upon the
same day that it was a free-trader.
Surely the pile of “boodle” must
have been unusually large to influ¬
ence such an able journal. Their
love for the South must be very
little, and their gratitude still less.
They are now, by advocating high
tariff fostering a principle which
lias long proved almost ruinous to
t he very people to whom they owe
their imps railed succss.
A school teacher in Michigan, by
the name of Rounds, has institu¬
ted kissing ns a new mode of pun¬
ishment upon those young ladies
who do not observe the school reg¬
ulations, he of course, inflicting the
punishment. If be is an ugly man
we think the punishment would be
effectual, otherwise we arc not so
sure about its result. The trustees
of the school decided, however, that
this was not a proper mode of pun¬
ishment, and consequently “fired”
Bounds trom the school house.
Bounds says it was jealousy that
prompted this action of the trus¬
tees.
A great many people are uncon
ciously doing themselves great in¬
justice by supporting institutions
which are continually battling for
high tariff. Every day the pock¬
ets of the groat masses of our com¬
mon people are sunk thousands of
dollars by this unjust system of
taxation The day will surely
come when our people will sudden¬
ly awake to the realization of the
true state of affairs, then may we
expect the ericis, and hot times for
the bloated congressmen and jour¬
nals in whose eyes, the filthy lucre
is more to bo prized than the pros¬
perity and happiness of their coun¬
trymen.
PITHY SAYINGS OF SAM
JONES IN BOSTON.
Fun is the next best thing to re¬
ligion.
I despise these little two-wheeled
Christians.
God pity the man that has got a
forked tongued wife.
The hardest fellow 1 have to deal
with is mv wife's husband.
Where is the preacher who is not
striving for a bigger church and
bigger salary.
A man isn't a sinner because
is an infidel, but he is an
because lie is a sinner.
There is nothing on earth
than selfishness and bell is
but selfishness on fire.
Heaven is just the other side
where a man has done his level
best through and through.
It is mighty hard for a woman
to be a Christian when her cook
has got more religion than she has.
I left my feelings at home, for 1
thought some fool in Boston might
-w.it them if I brought them along.
That fellow lying iu the
drunk is abetter man iu the sitfbt
of God than those fellows talking
about him.
David was a great sinner, but
David was a magnificent repentcr.
He beat any man of bis day
uing, but be also beat them repent
mg
If elegant preaching could have
inelegance, ought to be refreshing
to you.
We do not want a preacher who
talks about heaven so far off, and
tells you he does not think many
Brother this world’s honor
amounts to nothing, so soon it
fades away. It is like the
that falls in the river, makes a
white spot for a moment, and then
melts away.
You folks in Boston could set up
a brain factory anywhere, but have
you religion enough to save your
souls at the same time?
They have been after me about
grammar long enough to
straighten me out, but I always try
adapt my style to my congrega¬
tion.
I never want to be in that party
wants to get as near the gates
hell as it can and yet keep an
way into heaven.
HELPING THE FARMERS.
The farmers are gradually get¬
ting from Congress the attention to
which they are entitled, The agri¬
interest of the country is
far greater than any other, and yet
it has received less attention from
congress than any other. Con¬
gress and the State Legislature ap¬
pear to think that the farmers need
no help. It is true that they are
quite able to take care of them¬
selves, but there are many things
that could be done which would
assist them greatly.
The bill which has just passed
the senate., providing agricultural
experimental stations, will result
in great good to farmers. Each
State and territory will get $15,000
a year to bo expended under the
direction of its agricultural college
in conducting experiments with
reference to soils, plants, fruits,
trees, stock, and in fact everything
that is connected agriculture in its
various branches.
Comparatively few Southern
farmers, for instance, know what
kind of grasses are best suited to
the climate and soils of their res
pective localties, and a very large
percentage of them is in doubt as
the kind of fertilizers which will
produce the best results.
It can readily be seen that there
is an immense and very useful field
in which to use the money- provid¬
ed by this bill. The money now
spent in supporting the Agricultur¬
al bureau doesn’t produce very val¬
uable results, because it isn’t uni¬
ted in the right direction. The
aim of this experimental stations
bill, however, is a good one, and if
the right sort of men are selected
to conduct the experiments the
farmers will be furnished with in¬
formation which they can turn to
good account.—Ex.
