OLIO. Precious Thoughts for all.— Wealth that increases with use. Agree, for the law is costly. Lazy folks take the most pains. Every hotly is wise after the event. Diligence is the mother of good lack. God is merciful and will forgive the truly penitent. It is all very line to give what is not thine. The only way to learn the value of a dollar is earn one. The borrower is servant to the lend er.—Prow 22:7. He chooses best who cliooseth lu- or instead of rest. r5e not simply good—be good for omething.—Thorean. The great end of a good education is to form a reasonable man. A man may sav too much, even upon the best of subjects. Man's strongest support is the con sciousness of being right. The world deals good-naturedly with good matured people. Remember that every person, how- ver low, has rights and feelings. Beware of little expenses; a small leak will sink a great ship.—Franklin. Freedom of thought and expression '-the only sure guarantee of liberty. Everyman has a bag hanging be fore him in which he puts his neigh bors faults, and an other behind him in which lie puts his own.— Shake speare. Strength is like gun powder; to be directive it needs concentration and aim.—Matthew. Character is higher than intellect. A great soul will be stronger to live as well as to think. If you cannot discuss a question without losingyour temper you should remain silent. Impatience at home is-a besetting sin with many men that should be ] irayfully guarded against. Men are born with two ryes, but with one tongue in order that they should see twice as much as they say. Colton. Cherish patience as your favorite virtue. Always keep it about you. You will lind use for it oftener than for all t lie rest. Animosities and differences are the nstruments used by the Evil Spirit :<> break up the happiness and pros perity of communities. < five money plenty of air, and it is sweet, as the hawthorn; shut it up, and it cankers and breeds worms.— (bo. MacDonald. If you cannot be happy in one way, be in another: and this facility of disposition wants but little aid from philosophy, for health and good hum or are almost the whole affair. Many run about after felicity, like an absent man hunting for his hat, while it is in his hand or on his head.—Sharp. * )ld soldier, did you promise God when you wore going into battle if He would spare you and permit you to return home you would serve Him. Twenty years, and more, have passed, and you are still living. How have you kept that promise?—Prof. Charles Lane. It makes no odds how wicked you have been, everything good—business prosperity, happy social relations, health, a sound mind, good govern ment—we repeat, everything good is the gift of God. The Devil lias noth ing good to give you. The wages of >in is Death. Is it right to draw your rations from God and light for the Devil? Ingratitude and true manli- ness cannot dwell in the.same breast. Prof. Charles Lane. Excitement in Texas. Great excitement has been caused in the vicinity of Paris Tex by the remarkable^ecovery of Mr. J. L. Coi lev who was so helpless he could not turn in bed, or raise his head; every body said lie was dying of Consump tion A trial bottle of Dr. King s New ]Mscovery was sent him.

Tom Reed’s LiLle Joke. From Washington Sunday Gazette. Congressman Blount, of Georgia, who has represented his district eon- tinuously since the Forty-third Con- gross, is an exceedingly alert and watchful man, who always has liis oyes and ears strained to note the lirst symptoms presaging the intro duction of an appropriation bill. He always knows when a bill appropria ting money is introduced and is gen- •-rally ready with a strong objection, which he usually puts with enough force To alarm the friends of the meas ure who are directly interested in its success. Big Tom Reed, of Maine, is com monly recognized as the most influ ential man on the Republican side of The House, and it falls to his lot to lather a good many appropriation bills. Blount lias watched Reed very closely and has never missed an op : portiuiity to offer an objection to his bills. For the last few weeks Reed lias been poking fun at him in the quiet but effective way for which- he is famous. Whenever he has a bill to introduce relating to an expenditure of public money he moves over to Blount's desk with much slowness and solemnity, and without a smile on his fat, round face, says: • Mr. Blount, I have here a little bill. It is an appro priation bill and 1 have got to intro duce it. 1 hope you won't kill it. The money will come from the Treas ury of the United States, every dollar of it. There won’t be a demand upon you for a single cent. You can afford to support this bill; it will cost you nothing. The Government will bear the whole expense. We don't want a copper from your pocket. You will be just as rich as ever.” Reed lias made the same chaffing speech to the member from Georgia so many times that whenever he sees him approach ing with a paper in his hand he es capes at once to the cloak room and remains till his tormentor returns to hi s own side of the House. Reed has started after Blount so many times of late to assure him that appropriations made by Congress won’t come out of his own pocket that the Georgia mem ber is kept in the cloak rooms and lob bies about one-fourth of his time. • Launcelot. Col. Isaac W. Avery, in his paper, the Atlanta Capitol, has the follow ing to say relative to the charge that Gen. Gordon resigned his place in the United States Senate in pursuance of n bargain between himself and Sena tors Brown and Colquitt: The editor of this paper knows the facts connected with the resignation of Gen. Gordon as United States Sena tor and the appointment by Gov. Colquitt of ex-Gov. Brown as Sena tor in his place, At the time it was charged that the whole matter was one of arrange ment between these gentlemen lor private interest. They promptly denied it. The charge was pressed vigorously. The people have four times over whelmingly declared the accusation false, by two elections of Brown as Senator, tlie latter almost unanimous, and by Gov. Colquitt’s re-election as Governor, and his election as United States Senator. These tests would seem to be decisive of the matter. Gen. Gordon’s candidacy for Gover nor has revived the dead scandal. There was never less basis fora charge. The editor of the ^Capitol was at the time of the resignation and appoint merit Secretary of the Executive De partment under Gov. Colquitt and knew every step of the transaction. He knows two facts that utterly nega tive the idea of a bargain. 1. Gov. Colquitt - was opposed to Gen. Gordon's resignation, and tried to get him to withdraw it. 2. Gen. Gordon w as opposed to the appointment of Gov. Brown. The resignation and appointment were entirely disconnected and inde pendent of each other. The writer states the facts in the in terest of truth. ADVICE TO MOTHERS.

Atlanta Journal. “Did you ever know that a Gover nor of Georgia was killed in a duel? asked an official in the executive office tliis morning of a Journal reporter. A negative reply being given, he went on to state that Button Gwinnett succeeded Archibald Bullock, in Feb ruary, 1777. During his administra tion a delegation from South Carolina called upon Governor Gwinnett and suggested t the expediency of having Georgia place herself under the juris diction of South Carolina. The sug gestion was treated with contempt Subsequently an unfortunate mis understanding occurred between the Governor and Gen. Lachlan McIn tosh, which resulted in a duel, fought on the 15th of Mav, 1777, near Savan nah, in which both gentlemen were seriously wounded. General McIn tosh recovered, but Governor Gwin nett died of bis injuries twelve days afterwards. These facts are recorded in White’s Historical Collections of Georgia. Many suffering people drag them selves about with failing strength, feeling that they are steadily sinking into the grave, when by using Park er's Tonic they would find a cure com mencing with the lirst dose and vital ity and strength surely coming back to them -7 The Governor has refused the appli cation for pardon made in behalf of R. L. Pascal, convicted in the Mc Duffie Court for selling liquor in viola tion of prohibition. The case has been fought through all the courts, and this was the final appeal. SiiTH’S Mrs. S. D,.
