CARROLLTON, CARROLL COUNTY. GEORGIA, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 1,
A MORAL SKETCH.
Evermore Smooth wns a moral man,
H a hloial in chill monotony ran.
And a siui'.e ne’er marr-d the sanctified grace
Hint found on his visage a re-ting place.
Ills face it tilled us with ae to scan.
For he was such a v. ry moral man.
lie paid his tithes of cummin and mint,
And went to church wiihout any stmt;
On days when charity's mite did drop,
lie ga'e a bill and ’1 was alway* on top.
I don't know where, from Sheba t Dan,
Could bv found another so moral a uuu.
lie. frowned on all who conim : tte<l sin,
Except they bad the redeeming tin ;
He’d no forgiveness of sinucis to show.
I'hcy’d scorned all warning so tlteai ge,
There was 11a withdrawing his iron bin.
! Because he was -ticlt a moral man.

And liomnti passion to lii keen glance,
Wa full blown nleness in u< lance;
In every In an was a smful plan
Tnt Worried this lery moral man.
Ills children wore trained by a rigid rule
And early and late wer. kept at sen.ml :
To plat w.-ic Wicked, and wild and rude,
And the things ~f tlm Hesli uut-t li Subdued,
Vi they neter shouted anti leaped and ran,
The children of so moral a mau.
And the wodd—oh! the world—with its life
and joy,
1 Was held as Satan's n gitimute toy
A bubble uteri ly. whose Irriu h r. us sh II

The Kind of ltny Hint Ifahe Tien.
When Ur Nathaniel I'rentiee taught a
public school in Boxhii'-y, lie was veiy tnticli
• favorite, but his patience, at times, Would J
get very much exhausted bv the infractions
of the school 1 111. s 111 the scholars. On one
occasion, in rather a wvathy way, be tbrea*
en.d to pttni-h w 111 s x blows ot a heavy fer
ulc xhe nrsi boy det. ctediu whispering and
appoitvt-d so or <lv! t os; .Phort'y ..f or one
•t ibcse detectors shouted :
‘ Muat.r, John Zeigler is whispering’
John was called up, and asked if it ta. a
fact. (John, by the way, was a favorite ol
both his teacher sml schoolmates )
4 Yes, attsvveic,l John. *’ 1 was not aw’nr -
what I was about. 1 was intent on work ng
out a sum, and requested the one who sat m-xt
to reach mu the arithmetic that contained tin*
rule, l wished to see.”
The Doctor regretted his hasty ;btet, I vit
told John he could llo’ suffer him to Whisper
or escape punishment but continued :
4 I wished l could avoid it. but cannot,
without a forfeiture of my word and the cun
sentient loss of my authority. I will,'be con
tinued, 44 leave it to any three scholars y .u may
choose to say whether or not 1 oinil the pun
ish ntsnl.’
John said he was agreed to that, and im
mediately called out: S., T. I)., and D.
I’, 1). The ductoittold th* in *0 return their
v.-rdivt, which they soon did, aft. r consulta
tion, as follows ;
The master's word nui-t be kept inviolate;
John must receive the threatened six blows
of the ferrule ; but it must be inflicted on vol
uniary proxies; and we. the arbitrators, will
share the punishment, hy receiving each of us
two of the blows.
John, who listened to the verdict, stepped
tip to llte doctor, and with outstretched hands
exclaimed :
Master, here is my hand , they shan’t fie
struck a blow ; I will receive the punishment.
The doctor, tinder pretence of wiping his
face, shielded his eys. and telling the boys
to go to tlteir scats, said lie would think of it
to los dying day, but the punishment was nev
er inflicted.

■ A Tiger I’iulit.
Since January 14th. ‘4fl, I have been
scattered all over the world, and in 5‘J 1
picked inyseli up in that mo t poi-on..us
ot countries. Nicaragua, where I wuscin
j ployed by the trattnit Compaov irt vari-
Jons capacities. At the tuue tlie incident
ocenred, l was ciupl-iyed on board one of
the small steamers that ply on the San
j.luan river. Our stu'iou was between
] Uistdlo and Machuca rap tfs. From
tlie head ot the Machuca rapids to the
I*.wer end of them is about tiuee miles,
I wlticli and stance passengers at that time
] had to make on foot, wlrle then* bag
gage was taken by water in skill’s 11, n
there was another ■tcann-r th .t took
them t ’ Mutt Juan del Nor'e, or Grey
town.
* >tio eveuing there canin to Cu-fillo
from the westward -otne passengers very
unexpectedly : ttrnl as the Wnite that
was the name of th' 4 steamer below the
! rapids--was to start f r San Juan catlv
; in the mottling, and ns it yva* t. o late to
pass the passengers down that night, it
miis ncics-ary that the captain ol the
\l iiite should he made aware of the pas
sengeis Iteiug at the head of the rap ds,
:so mat he would wait for them. I was
i ordered hy the captain of our boat, 11,< j
1 Ihilwer, to go 1 1.• w ll and let him know,
I was sent because I had been over the
i road ottciior than any one else that Imp*
; pened to ho there at the timo. I did
I not like the duty much, as there had
been tigers seen several times on the]
trail ; but as a sailor’s motto must he
implicit obedience, I started. The only ,
weapon of defence that T could get was 1
a howie knife, that one of the passengers .
lent to me, as I had left all my arms at j
the hotel at Castillo ; and, in fact a boyv-!
ie watt the best weapon 1 could liavo to
use in the comple'e darkness.
When 1 left the boat it was quite dark,
with every appearance of a heavy show
er, but as 1 thought I knew tlto trail
potfectly, I did not cure much, as I knew,
that if I got wet someone on the other
boat would lend me dry clothes to put
on. when I reached there. I went along
very well till 1 had gone about two
thirds of the distance when the clouds
lot go their loads of water, and it canto
down in sheets. For about half an hour *
it rained as it only knows how to rain j
in iho tropics, and to crown all, I lost tho
trail, when I found tuyself stumbling!
thr"U.dt the underbrush. I stopped till
the rain would cease and the clouds puss
oil, so tii.it I could have some light. It
eass- 1 1xitv aim s> ilnrx tn.n one
could feel it. When it cleared up, 1 tr cd
to find tho trail, hut it was thoroughly 1
!osi. 1 made up my mind to nml a
piece of ground, and lay down and sleep
until morning. I soon found a place to
suit my put pose, at the foot of a large]
tree. I scraped up some leaves and its
the weather was very warm, 1 was soon
dropping nspleep, when I was ur “used by
hearing a heavy footlall, which I took to
he that of a tiger, ami a very 1 .rge one
too, from the way he stepped. 1 ruse up
so that 1 had “tie knee on the ground
and one foot, and strained my eyes to
I fierce the darkness : hut to no purpose,
for though the animal kept coming c!o
stir, I could see nothing. Presently I
saw what apoeured to bo two ’nulls ol
green fire. The instant 1 caught sight of
them the animal stopped, and, near as I
could judge in the darkness, about ei li
feet I’i mil me -eeriailßv not more than
ten Tiiere I remained lor three <.r lour
minutes-- probably not so long, but seem
to me a much longer period, with my
knife griped tight waiting 10, die spring.
At la-t I could n*t stand it any longer.
I gave a veil, t > rather frighten the tiger
away, or bring him “ti - I did n* t cure
much which; but an, thing lo put an end
to my suspense. Ii had tno debited ef
fect; for I had not closed my mouth >
when 1 saw he two eyes raise and shoot
towards me. As they came, 1 struck
with m.v knife and buried it in tlto am
mal. Then down to tho earth 1 went,
borne by the shock, with the claws of the
tiger tearing my shoulders. Wo rolled
over on the ground once or twice before
I could got toy knife out. ol him. When
I did got it loose, I went to stabbing. I
made three or four stabs, when the tiger
let go ell hold ol me, ami straightened
out aud quivered all through his boilv,
which l could feel ns lie lay on me. 110
then laid perfectly still. I was not long
in removing him from me. I was not,
much hurt, as tlto tiger had not enough
time after the spring till he was dead ;
and then I had caught hhn round the
neck with my left arm. My wounds
felt rather painful, but they did not bleed
much. 1 considered that it was too dan
gerous to sleep, on the ground, as tho
•cent of tho blood might bring more
tigers, and Itboughtene was enough f,.r
one night. Ho 1 hunted up a small tree
and passed the remainder of the night, al
ternately nodding and waking in the bran
ches of it, some twelve or 15 feet from tho
ground. In the morning as soon us it
was light enough to see, I came down i
from my perch ami found that 1 was only
about ten yards from the trail. I reach-!
