THE HARVEST SUN.
RUMINATIONS OF THE GEORGIA
PHILOSOPHER.
Promensdlng with Mr*. Arp to th# Wheat Field*.
Explaining th* Different Orowth* of the Crop -
Taking Up th* Carpet* forth* Bummer-
Explanation of a Faro lit* Ballad.
The harvest a?? begun. The harvest run it
shilling by day and the moon by night. Our
Burt oat* that were sowed in March have come
in ahead of the wheat, and are now falling be*
fore the cradle blade. It is a charming scene.
The good old-fashioned way is not a bad way
after all. I've got a reaper, and shall use in
the low grounds on the wheat, but the ever
lasting rains this spring made too many little
ruts aud furrows on the upland, and the cradles
arc better. The machine jolts and bumps
around so that Ralph could hardly keep bis
seat. But the oats are good. I have never
seen a better upland crop. Carl and Jessie
follow along in the wnko of the eradlers and
tie up their little bundles, and when they get
tired of that they pile them into dozen* and
set them up into shocks, and arc proud of their
work. What a pity it is that we cant all make
piny of our work. How fond the children
??J trying to do grown folks work. Carl wauts
o little cradle to reap with, and thinks he could
do it splendid, but it most kills him to take a
tucket of water to the field. That sore on his
foot where he snagged it on a nail hurts awful
had then, and he limps all the way to the
spring and hack, but he can trot to the dew
berry patch or the mulberry treo as lively and
gay ns a colt in the meadow. Grown folks arc
that way too. I've known some mighty nice
girls to.gct tired and most broke down cleaning
lip the house, and cooking, and sewing, and
the like, hut they could wake up to the music
that night and dance till the rooster crowed for
morning. We can nil do what we wont to do,
mid we go at it with alacrity. It is easier to
go to a picnic tlmu it In to church. But labor
mid toil Inn a sweet reward. We will never
reap If we do not sow. The harvest that is
now at hand i* one of the great lessons of life,
for our life is like a field mid our years like the
acres, and our months and weeks mid days and
minute* are the roods mid rods and yards and
feet which subdivide the whole. 801110 por-
tions are well sown and tended and some nre
not, hut n good man will make mi average
crop. We may fail here and fail there, and
have our little sins and weaknesses, hut at the
last a man must lie measured by his average
crop. Character is not made or lost in a day
or a week, but it takes a life mid wo can never
write a true epitaph until the life is closed and
wo write it on the to mb. But a few days ago
the fields were bountifully green, mid thograiti
bent its proud bends gracefully before the gen
tle brecae and seemed conscious of it* life mid
health and consequence. It reminded 1110 of
man in hi* prime moving to and fro upon the
earth acquiring wealth or fnme or pleasure,
and all unmindful of the ren|??er. But soon he
golden fruit, it is well, and his mission in life
is accomplished, hut if clogged mid tangled
mid corrupted with cheat ami cockle mid smut
mid rust and brambles the crop is n failure mid
???eight to have been cut down whilo it was
green
I had worked hard all the morning helping
Mrs. Arp lake up her carpet* for the slimmer.
The hhy and dust that was under had to be
swept up ever so gently???yes, gently???-that was
the word she used??????gently, now, William;
you are raising the dust, ami it will he all over
the house. Dont he in such a hurry???gently."
I got It all up niter a fashion mid put out of tin
window in the wheelbarrow, and put the car-
nets on the fence ready for beating, and then
I took her long handled broom nud swept the
walls, and the eeiliiig, and the corners, and
behind tho pictures, and then our chunk of a
darky brought water and washed up the floors,
and the girts worked on the bedstead* with
kerosene and turpentine and corrosive subli
mate and rat poison mid damnation )>owdcr,
and I dont know what all, and this morning
when my wifo was maki ig up her lied an
lilted up the corner ot tne mattress she discov
ered one of the biggest, fattest ones you ever
???aw, and her heart sunk down within'lier and
???he reclined on a chair in despair. 1 was
norrv foe her, 1 was, for the pesky varmints
are her eternal horror, nud it I was rich 1
would build her a bran new house and till it
with bran new furniture, all made of china
wood or cumplior wood. I care nothing about
these silent perambulators myself, ami it has
liecn hinted to me on more than one occasion
that it is because 1 am tough uud old ami alii-
gntorish, which 1 reckon is so, though 1 do
know some women who are no spring chickens
themselves. But I do sutler from the varmint*
anyhow, nml have my sleep broken, for some
times | hove to get up in tho night ami help
aearcli for them, find when found 1

moot the old *ong of ???Coming Through the

any:
???*I( a body meet a body mining through the wheat,

And she smiled aud said the rye of the poet
was not a field hut a rocky branch named Rye,
ami the lu??*io was wading through it when her
lover met her on the rock* ami kissed her. 80
that knocked all the poetry out of the situa
tion, and 1 said no more on the subject, hut
I've seen the day when that wheat field would
have been a* good a place for the business as
licit wrote to Colonel Jones and myself, saying
that she had a claim against our testator s estate
for $77,000 with Interest from 18G3. Wo replied
her, asking her to formulate her demand, urn! say
ing that wc found no evidence* of any such in
dehtcducss among the governor's papers. To this
she responded in substance, that It was not to
expected that he would preserve among his papers
the evidence of his own dishonor. When she
sinned this tone, we paid no attention to her
further than to write her to moke out her claim
according to law, swear to it and semi it to us. This
she never did.
Hhc *uInter]liontly came to Augusta and en
deavored to get some lawyers here to represent her
claim, hut of course there was 110 one at the
Augusta bar who would touch it. . ???

GOVERNOR JENKINS' ESTATE.
Libel of a Tore and Exulted i'hamrter??ln??
tervlew With Hon. Jos. II. L'untwtng.
From the Augusta Chronicle.
A Chronicle reporter seeing Major Cummins
yesterday, asked him about the suit brought
against him and l'olonelJCharte*CJoiies|lr., as ex
ecutors of the late Governor Jenkins. Flndlti
him qu(je t??u*y the reporter came at once to the
point by asking:
"What Is there really In the suit of Mr*. Belt
against Governor Jenkins's estate????
???Nothing.??? replied Mr. Cummtug, "hot vexa
tion and annoyance.'
??????Was Governor Jenkins Iu debt to Mr*. Belt at
the time of hi* death????
???Neither then nor at any other time fora single
dollar."
' Hare you any objection to making a statement
abont the suit, which Is such a surprise to all who
knew the governor?"
???None at all. If you will be satisfied with a short
and roadie one. I haven't time to do more than
that"

Ins never nt any time owed this person a cent.???
???Well,??? asked the reporter. ???Is them no founda
tion at all for the claim????
???None at all for a claim. There 1# truth In one
of the averments of the bill. The plantation In
Bullock couuty wo* sold August, twit. It was sold
not by Governor Jenkins, who had no authority
to sell It, but, as shown by the recorded deed, by
Mrs. Belt, ns executrix of her husband. This Bul
lock plan tat iouf was not very valuable. It was sold
by Mr*. Belt as executrix for fliw.oooin confede
rate money, when that money was a drug, and
worth 91?????? for 91 In gold. In other
words, the plantation was sold for
between 96.000 and 97,000 In good
money. Much of this moderate sum was applied
by Mrs. Belt In laiying off the debts of her hus
band'* estate, aud the balance??? In sign llkont at
best???went Into Mrs. Belt's hands, as we can show
l.y abundant and overwhelming evidence. Gov
ernor Jenkins luid nothing to do with these trails-
action*. but, in the kindness of his heart, to uid
her and advise her iu the routine matters of her
administration. It Is not likely that the Integrity
of his character war. much strulncd by the tempta
tion to take this lady's little pile of confederate
money, when he and every one else at that time
had bushels of the stuff. The fact is the suit
would la; laughable, hut that It is vexatious iu de
laying the iidiiiliii: tmtlon of the estate, nml Is in
the terms In which it Is stated, an atrocious libel
of a pure aud exalted character.
It it Is the purpose of this suit, by delaying the
iwiininlstration of the estate, to get a "rumpro
mise," It will not succeed. There Is nothing to
compromise, and not a dollar will be paid them
011 that line. I end us I Itcgaii, by saying there Is
nothing???absolutely nothing???in the miiIt. except
annoyance and vexation for the living ami defa
mation of the dead.???

The Safest and Ilest Internal Remedy.
It is safe to take BRAXDarrn???s Pills at any
time, but to get the best results they should be
taken on an empty stomach going to bed. It
well on the night you take them to eat little
no cupper. As no two people are affected
precisely the same by a like quantity of the
same medicine, it is difficult to determine the
dose; and it is something which must be left
to the discretion of the patients. We will say,
though, the average dose for an adult i* from
four to ten, according to effect.
For Constipation or Dyspepsia one or two
taken every night will iu a short time, )>erform
an absolute cure. It is well to take a purga
tive at least once or twice a month at a pre
ventive of disease, and a* these Pills are en
tirely vegetable, and are made with the great
est care, we know them to be the safest and
most effective purgative ever introduced to the
public. They have been sold in this country
for over fifty years, aud have iu that time at
tained an unprec pularitv.
lloniford's Arid Phosphate.
ADVANTAGEOUS IN |>Y??rEV??!A.
Dr. G. V. Dorset, Piqua, Ohio, says: ???1
have used it in dyspepsia with very marked
benefit. If there isdtfi.'iency of acid in the
stomach, nothing affords more relief, while
the action on the nervous system is decidedly
beneficial."
