We are pleased to hear that our
townsman, Mr. J. H. Nisbet, is writ

similar, in some respects, to a little

Washington Irving and others, pub
lished many years ago, called Salama-
gundi.
From the title we are led to expect
a melange comment on current topics
of the day. That he will “cull the
sweets” of a large fund of useful in
formation, pleasingly conveyed, his
extensive reading, long experience
with the pen, retentive memory,
quick perception of the humorous,
and love of the beautiful, give assur
ance.

For the Union-Recorder.
Things are Not Always What They
Seem.
To every human heart there comes
alternately waves of gladness, sorrow,
goodness, “meanness,” hopefulness,
dejection, confidence, suspicion, kind
liness and Ill-feeling. Let no man
judjje himself or the world by the ex
perience of one day, neither let the
world judge an individual by the ap
pearances of one day of his life. The
human heart is not always the same.
To-day it may be dejected and but
little disposed to exhibit th> feelings
of friendliness that it cherishes for
others. Ciroumstances, in which
there is no personality, except as it
may bear upon itself affect and influ
ence its action. No person can be al
ways the same. Philosophy only can
appreciate the variedness and incon
stancy of human action resulting
from circumstances that may produce
either cheerfulness or dejection.
Therefore there is the greatest need
for a wide spread oharity as well as r
deep discrimination in judging our
fellows. It is not always the mpst
kindly hearted that exhibit the most
mannerism or pass the most compli
ments and it is not the man who
makes the most professions of loyal
ty and friendliness that becomes the
friend in the hour of need. Li the
words of the great moralist—
Not always action show the mail: we And
Who does a kindness Is not therefore kind;
Perhaps prosperity becalmed Ids breast,
Perhaps the wind lust shifted from the east;
Not therefore humble lm who seekH retreat,
Pride Ruides his steps and bids him shun the
Rreat:
Who combats bravely is not therefore brave:
He dreads a deathbed like the meanest slave,
Who reasons wisely Is not therefore wise:
His pride In reasoning, not In act ing lies.

Dr. and Mrs. Powell having return
ed from a several weeks tour through
Florida, are now on a visit to Atlan
ta, accompanied by their daughter,
Mrs. West, and child, and Dr. O'Dan
iel.
Capt. DesHasure with his engineer
ing corps is making quite an exten
sive topographical survey of the Asy
lum grounds, preparatory to grading
them. When the grading shall have
been completed, the Asylum grounds
will be among, if not the most hand
some premises in the State. Already
there is considerable terracing around
some of the buildings, all nicely sod
ded with Bermuda grass, which is quite
pretty. That old high, prison-like
fence in front is removed—a neat low
one in its plaoe nicely painted, ren
ders the place quite attractive.
Dr. Hall continues to enlarge and
improve his menagerie. In the back
yard of the male convalescent build
ing, fenced in by wire grating, he has
various large cages, dens, .burrows
and houses for his different animals,
and has recently added a large fine
specimen of the horned, hooting owl.
He was added to the “happy family”
consisting of birds, hawks, etc., all in
one large cage. This happy family,
however, in an evil moment came to
grief, for the hawk ate up the birds
and then the owl ate up the hawk.
Whereupon one of the patients sung
a song—two lines only of which I can
now recall, viz:
“The owl and the hawk went to bed
together,
The owl ate the hawk up and never
left a feather.”
So the owl was then left the sole occu
pant of that once happy household,
“monarch of all he surveyed” until
Dr. H. recently added another large
bird rarely found in cages, that will
doubtless, from his size, deter the owl
from a similar attempt on his life.
This is a fine large specimen of wliat
is known to Ornithologists as the
Falco Butcoides. Those who have
never seen this large bird would be
much interested in studying him.
Will Stanley had occasion to re-en
ter the bakery one night after having
closed it, when he found it occupied
by a perfect army of rats. He closed
the doors, stopped the holes, declared
war on the spot, and left thirty-nine
killed on the field to say nothing of
the wounded that escaped.
Mrs. Talmage of Midway, had two
of her sisters from Augusta to spend
several days of last week with her.
They returned home on Saturday last.
The Attendants at the Asylum had
a pic nic at the old Oglethorpe college
building in Midway, last Friday
which was, we hear, a very enjoyable
affair to those who attended.
We hear that the Asylum cornet band
are engaged for the memorial services
on Decoration day, and also for the
coming college commencement. They
are diligently practicing and are alrea
dy making some very nice music.
The Asylum Dilettanti had one of
their weekly entertainments last Fri
day night. Several visitors were pres
ent. Among them that sweet little
Miss Eva Perry whom every one re
members as reciting so well at the
last commencement as not only to re
ceive an encore, but a gold medal.
She read a comic dialogue very effec
tively and little Miss Eliza Thomas
of Midway, recited in a very pleasing
manner, that well known poem of
“Lord Ullin’s Daughter.” Dr. Whit
aker brought down the house with
“Husband, dear Husband come home
to me now.” A very amusing parody
on that well known song of “Father
come Home.”
