I bolievo if a man should live a
thousand years in siu, the very
minute he gave evidence of a love
for Christ he would bs accepted
and just as soon as the man who
had sinned only a day.
I am satisfied that God will de*
liver me from this trouble. There
are circumstances connected with
my confinement that are mirac
ulous of which I hope to tell you
ere long. I expect to complete
my education as Boon as my lib
erty is given me back, let that be
when it may, and I think that will
be in a short while. I intend to
devote the remainder of my life to
God’s service and I don’t think
an uneducated man is as capable
of doing good, as one that is edu
cated. I wrote you the first let
ter after my conversion; in fact
you were the first person I
thought 1 would like to see and
tell you of my mistakes in life.
Give my regards to Mrs. Woot-
ten. Begging your prayers in my
behalf, I remain,
Yours most truly,
• Phocian L. Sutherland.
Will be gled to hear from you
at any time and often.

Letter from P. L, Sutherland.
A Fast Young Man Repentant.
Dawson, Ga., July 20, 1887.
Rev. Jas. R. King, Milledgeville.
My Dear Friend: It was with
great pleasure that I read your
letter, and profound regret to
learn that you did not receive my
letter, written you while I stood
behind the iron bars of a Texas
jail. It contained certain requests
that it is not necessary for me to
repeat to-day ; one of which was
to go and see my darling mother,
and lend some consolation to her
in this her hour of trial: but you
did it any way prompted (I am
satisfied ! by a “Godly spirit." I
want to say to you in the outset
that my seeming misfortune has
been the greatest fortune that it
is possible for man to attain. It
lias been the cause of my going
to the God that I had so long,
and so vilely persecuted, for par
don and help: I secured both.
Yes, lam a converted man and
I know it; I don’t question it for
a moment, it needs none. My
every idea has been changed.
The things that I once loved and
gloried in, to day I hate, and the
things I use to hate I love with
all my heart. My dear brother
it was under surroundings beyond
the description of the most graph
ic pen that T first sought com
munion with the God I had cursed
and denied, and I was there made
(perhaps) the happiest man that
was ever enclosed by the walls of
a dungeon. It makes me sick at
heart to think of the many hoprs
past and gone, spent in the ball
room around the gambling table,
and in the billiard saloon seeking
pleasure where it was not to be
found, and pain was sure to fol
low. I was not only floating
down the stream to ruin myself,
but was trying to recruit the ranks
of the Devil with those nearest
and dearest on earth to me; but
by the grace of God I will exert
ail the influence in my power, not
only to take them back where I
found them but carry them near
er to Jesus. I think there are
many people in this world, who
would go to God but they think
they have gono so far from the
path of rectitude that they can
never get back. This is surely a
mistake; it is impossible for man to
be a viler sinner than I was, and
General George Doles.
A grand reception was tender
ed the Governor’s Horse Guard
last night by Captain John Mil-
ledge at his residence on Peach
tree Street. Besides the mem
bers of the {.mard, several ladies
and invited guests were present.
The lawns wove beautifully light
ed up with Japanese lanterns,
while a band dispensed music for
tlio occasion.
A part of the evening was spent
in talking over the encampment
and relating the pleasing incidents
of the past week.
Refreshments were served to
the guests. The tables were beau
tifully and attractively decorated.
In the center was a largo cake,
with two large sabres crossed,
and the letters G. H. G. were
raised in golden letters. The
cake was presented Captain Mil-
lege by Mrs. J. M. Smith and
Mrs. General Doles.
Captain Milledge, on being call
ed for mentioned in the course of
his remarks one of the most
touching experiences that he had
during the late war. It was his
last meeting with General Doles.
It was in the afternoon of the
first day of the battle of Cold Har
bor that General Doles’ brigade
passed in front of the battery
commanded by Coptain Milledge.
Ho requested Captain Milledge to
close his battery behind Doles
brigade, and that they would be
supported. General Doles was a
handsome man and was attired
with peculiar care. Captain
Milledge’s brigade wheeled in be
hind General Doles, who imme
diately became engaged in battle.
In a few moments a litter covered
with oil cloth brought back a
bodv. On raising the cloth ho
found General Doles had been
killed. The Captain said this
was one of the most touching ex
periences of his life. He closed
bv proposing that the Governor’s
Horse Guard give three cheers
for Mrs. Doles, who was present,
which was immediately done.
At a late hour tlio Guard and the
guests left, wishing Captain and
Mrs. Milledge many years of
peace and prosperity.—Atlanta

Dyspepsia la dreadful. Disordered liver
is misery. Indigestion is a loo to good na

The human digestive Apparatus is one
of the most complicated and wonderful
things in existence. It is easily put out or

Greasy food, tough food, sloppy food,
bad cookery, mental worry, late hours,
irregular habits, and many other tilings
which ouabt not to be, have made the
American people a nation of dyspeptics.
But Green's August Flower has done a
wonderful work in reforming this sad bus
iness and making the American people so
healthy that they can enjoy their meals

distinguishes the daughters of
Pennsylvania among the fairest
of their countrywomen, among
the foremost in her day was Har
riett Lane.
The powerful and great of the
two continents paid homage to her
charms of person, of manner and
of mind. At the court of Victo
ria, sovereign of Great Britain,
she was the object of special at
tention and admiration from the
Queen, the members of the royal
family and the nobility.
* At the republican court of her
distinguished uncle, James Bu
chanan, fifteenth President of the
United States, she was a queen
in her realm, recognized and ap
plauded by statesmen, generals,
politicians and people, and bfelbv-'
ed of her own sex in every grade
of the social scale at the National
capital.
Although nearly throe decades
have elapsed since this Pennsyl
vania queen reigned in the full
glory of presiding lady of an ex
ceptional brilliant regime at the
Executive Mansion, and by vir
tue of her station was recognized
as the First Lady of the Land,
the remembrance of those days
constitutes one of the brightest
reminiscences in the social expe
riences of many who survived the
turmoils of rebellion and mutabil
ity of politics, and still share in the
gayeties of the fashionable world
at the seat of National govern
ment.
On Park street in one of the
most aristocratic portions of the
city of Baltimore, in a plain but
stately mansion, surrounded by
all the comforts of wealth and
the souvenirs of the public career
of her uncle and of her own social
triumphs in England and Ameri
ca, lives this Historic woman.
Though past middle age, she
preserves every trace of that
beauty of face and form which
contributed so much to the poten
cy of her sway when in the zenith
of her social career. As she en
tered the drawing room she look
ed even more beautiful in her
robes of widowhood and moth
erhood, robbed by the relentless
harvester of her young son.
Against the wall hung Sir John
Watson Gordon’s plcttiro of the
Prince of Wales, presented to
President Buchanan in recog
nition of the hospitalities shown
her son during liis visit to the
United States in I860. Marble
busts and articles of virtu were
distributed about the room. A
picture of Henry Eliot Johnson,
the idol of her young maiden
heart and the husband of her
latter years, presented t^e feat
ures of a person of fine presence
and amiability of character.
“My recoloctious of those ear
lier days,’’ said this woman after
a cordial greeting, seating her
self, “are very vivid. I have
preserved the most important
events of my life at th'6 Court of
St. Janies and the Whito House
in the form of notes. It has of
ten been suggested that I prepare
these in a connected shape, so
that they may he in condition for
publication, but I shrink from
giving such prominence to events
which are not only private hut
recall somo of the dearest memo
ries of my life. I do not object to
recalling these scenes in a life
spent among the titled personages
of the old world and the great
men of our own country, hut I
dislike publicity.
“Many of the principal figures
in those scenes have passed away,
but many still remain. I cher
ish the memories of the dead and
living alike, and realize how fa
vored I was in having such op
portunities.
“My life now is little spent in
social affairs. I have my home
here, in which I have preserved
the souvenirs of the past and
which bring up many pleasant
remembrances.” Philadelphia

The grand attraction of June 14, at
New Orleans was the 205th Grand Ex
traordinary Drawing of The Louisia-
na State Lottery Company, when
$1,055,000 dispersed in 3,130 prizes all
over the world, thus proving to be a
true anti-poverty organization, far
more efficient than the schemes of
cranks and dreamers. Any informa

if the

houses of the legislature would find
out from the principal keeper how
many convicts are now serving a sec
ond or more terms in the penitentia
ry? If the penitentiary convicts get
such good treatment as to make them
anxious to get back after serving one
term, it would be well to provide a
more disagreeable berth for sucli of
fenders. Indeed, it would seem but
just, that all convicts serving a sec
ond or third term should be treated
with much less leniency than are
those who are serving their first term.
