Hayward, Durant and Holmes, three of the most gigantic mur¬ derers that ever disgraced civi¬ lization, have all been found guilty and ought to suffer the penalty on the gallows. The sham bull fight so much talked of has actually taken place in an arena built outside the Exposition grounds, in At¬ lanta. The excitement was great and the spectators enjoyed the fun. A Connecticutt yankee is sell¬ ing Bibles in Alabama to the negroes. The book is profusely illustrated with all the old time people, and with the angels in black to represent the colored race, The book “takes like hot cakes > > and the enterprising agent is making money. In the recent State elections the Democrats have suffered a Waterloo defeat. How could any less be expected when the Democrats are divided against themselves. We have silver Democrats, gold Democrats and Populist Democrats ; while Re¬ publicans stand solid for their man. The Wayeross Herald says the politicians who fail to take sides on the money question are left. We think this is a question which has only one side and that is the sound money side.

It is a harmless substitute for Paregoric, Drops, Soothing Syrups, and Castor Oil. It is Pleasant. Its guarantee is thirty years’ use by Millions of Mothers. Castoria destroys Worms and allays feverishness. Castoria prevents vomiting Sour Curd, cures Diarrhoea and Wind Colic. Castoria relievos teething troubles, cures constipation and flatulency. Castoria assimilates the food, regulates the stomach and bowels, giving healthy and natural sleep. Cas¬ toria is the Children’s Panacea—the Mother’s Friend. Castoria. “Castoria is an excellent medicine for chil¬ dren. Mothers have repeatedly told me of its good effect upon their children.” Dr. G. C. Osgood, Dowell. Mass. _ “ Castoria is the best remedy for children of v.-liich T am acquainted. 1 hope the day is not far distant when mothers will consider the real interest of their children, and use Castoria instead of the various quack nostrums which are destroying their loved ones, by forcing opium, morphine, soothing syrup and other hurtful agents down their throats, thereby sending them to premature graves.” Dr. J.

In speaking of the Exposition he says ho Liberty Bell was taken from the dome of the Cap¬ itol in Washington and carried to Atlantic City. The bell is a relic of the freedom of the slaves in the late war. The speech on the occasion was made by Col. Washington, a direct descend¬ ant from the first president of the United States, and that the lamented George F. Grady, the great orator, was one of the first i ;o make a solid South. A gentleman was dashing along the highway gay and hap¬ py, in a handsome turnout. He halted and asked us to take a seat, and we did so. Nearing a deep cut and embankment he said, “Now we come to a river and will have to cross iu a flat boat. J ) A deep, muddy and wide stream lay before us. We drove info the boat, which at once began to sink. We grap¬ pled the rope, pulled up and then caught the limbs hanging over from the steep banks. Fi nally we made good our escape the , midst, . . , leaf , and excite- ., ltl or ment. All this only a dream; a dream, however, which illus¬ trates the career of him who thoughtlessly falls in with the gay and giddy ad own the path* way of life, and is rushed into the depths of sin and sorrow, re¬ covering only after a hard strug¬ gle for life, sometimes sinking beneath the cesspools of vice— lost, and lost forever.
