Oecaaionally people marry in haste; they can console themselves, however, that if all is not lovely they will have plenty of leisure in which to repent. Do not spend time in ruminating on what yon would do were you differently situated, or had certain other things, but see how well you can do with what you have. The force of habit is illustrated in the person of Jay Gould. When young he drove the cows to water, and now, although he is worth millions, he still wiWbrS stock. At the reception given at the White House by President Cleve land on Monday, the 2nd inst, it is estimated that 6,000 persons shook hands with and wished him well. This i« Leap Tear. “They say” that th* young ladies “pop tho question” during Leap Tsar; how ever,although wobave lived through several, we cannot vouch for this froia personal experience. In Pickens county, S. C., Jan 3d, negroes lynched a white man by the nama of John Warldop who was nspected of having criminally as saulted a thirteen year old girl who died of the injuries she received.

The Evening Clipper, daily, is a new candidate for popular favor. It is published by T. E. Clement, Rome, Ga. It is a creditable sheet, **d bow that the Evening Bulletin Is defunct there is no reason why it should not succeed. Gen. Nicholls, after a heated campaign in which much bad blood was engendered and some epilled, has defeated Gov. MeEnery for the nomination for governor of Louisiana. Nicholls has only one leg and one arm, but he got there *ll the same. President Cleveland said in his message: .“It is a condition which confronts us—not a theory.” The condition he alluded to is that a surplus of $15,424,603 was collect ed during the month of December in excess of the expenses of run sing the government. This is over half a million a day wrung from the people by the tariff for no purpose except to protect manufactuiers. That’s all. A dispatch from Guatemala, South America, says “one of the bloodiest wars this country ever saw has just been ended by a battle iu which all the rebels were killed.” Thus three or four unhappy women are left without husbands. Georgia gets five chairmanships on house committees. Mr. Clem ents presides over the committee on civil service, Mr. Norwood on coinage, Mr. Crisp on priveleges and elections, Mr. Blount on postal affairs and Mr. Candler on educa tion. The patriotic(?) North has rais ed $120,000 to erect a monument to Grant. As it is estimated that it will take $500,000 to perpetuate the fame of the conqueror of the South in marble it will be seen that only a small matter of $380,000 is lacking. About fifteen miles from Albany, Ga., on the night of Dec. 27th Na than Reid, col., murdered his wife and six children while they were asleep and then burned the house, nearly cremating the corpses. Reid’s domestic life has been unhappy and it is thought he has become deranged brooding over his troubles. Leonidas Hamline, of Chicago entered a restaurant in that city on November 28th and eat dinner. For a month afterward he was uncon scious and when he came to know again what he was doing he was in New Orleans. That dinner had a curious effect on Mr. Hamline, but then there is no accounting for what restaurant hash will do. December 31st, was the fiftieth aniversary of the ordination of .Pope Leo XIII to the priesthood. The event was celebrated at Rome, Italy, in georgeous style. It is es timated that the gifts tho Pope re ceived were worth over $20,000,000. The gift of President Cleveland was an artistically bound copy of the Constitution of tho United States. The McCoy Thk Chattooga News says “Cal vin Ton ng was allowed to testify, but the court charged, in effect that his evidence was not worthy of credence, which amounted to the same thing as not allowing him to testafy.” The facts are these. Judge Fain, in his charge to the jury, af ter reading the decision of the Su preme Court in the McCoy case as to duress, said when asked by de fendant’s counsel to charge on that point,that if they believed that Cal vin Young at the inquest was nojt under duress and had committed deliberate perjury, the jury were at liberty to reject his testamony. But they were to be the Judges of that question. No one can say that this is not sound law.—Walker County Messenger. The charge of Judge Fain, ac cording to the opinion of compe tent judges who heard it, was more favorable to the prisoner than the ev idence justified. Counsel for the stale had to ask him to charge points of law favorable to the prosecution two or three times with the result that at last it was only partial ly done. Counsel for the State gave up the case after hearing the charge, it was so palpably in favor of the defence that they were convinced, before the jury went out, that the verdict would be an acquital. Captain Kellett had a U. S. war rant for Calvin Young,who sent word ho would be at his home on Look out mountain on the sth of Decem ber, 1885, and that if Capt. Kellett would come on that day he would submit to arrest. It was known that Capt. Kellett would be on the mountain on that day. McCoy, who lived near Young’s, knew it. McCoy was a moonshiner, and Kel lett was a revenue officer. Tho above facts show two strong mo tives for murder: revenge and self interest and preservation. That there was a conspiracy entered into to decoy Captain Kellett on the mountain and murder him there can be no doubt. Kellett was not killed in a fight; he was shot in the back; way laid, and deliberately murdered by a man, or men, who had posted themselves beside the road and waited for him. It was planned. Just who laid the plans and just how many aided in carry ing them out is uncertain, but in the light of facts known to be facts it is almost certain that McCoy was one and that he is the murderer. Believing this we are forced to the conclusion, despite the “sound law” of Judge Fain’s charge, that the opinion we have heard expressed by parties who had every facility for arriving at. the truth that the trial was a farce is, unhappily, too true. Sho w Your Hand, G-antlemen. It is stated that there are sever al prominent men, among others, Judge Joel Branham, of Rome, and Col. Shumate, of Dalton, who show a disposition to be willing to serve their fellow countrymen in congress from this district for the next two years, and that they are now en gaged in feeling the public pulie in that connection. Both these gen tlemen, so far as is known, are qual ified to serve as congressman, but the people will want to know, be fore considering their claims, how they stand on the tariff question. Mr. Cleveland will be elected pres ident again this year on a platform as set forth in his message declar ing for a reduction of the tariff. It is of vital importance that men should be sent to congress who are in favor of carrying out the views President Cleveland represents. Mr. Clements is with President Cleve land on this issue, and before sub stituting a new and untried man for our present efficient con gressman the people will want to know how the substitute stands on the tariff question. If the new as pirants are all right on this issue then their other claims can and will be considered. Where the Money Goes. The wealth per capita in nine States, to wit: Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylva nia, Rhode Island and Vermont is $1,220. A large number of the manufactories of the United States are located in the above nine states and these manufactories are protec ted. Their owners have become rich by reason of tho unjust dis crimination in their favor shown by the present tariff laws. The wealth per capita in the fol lowing pine States, to wit: Ala bama, Arkansas, Georgia, North Carolina, Virginia, Nebraska Michigan, Minnesota, and Kansas is $512. These are agricultural states, and the people living in them have to buy manufactured goods on which there is a tariff of 40 pr cent. „ This 40 pr cent, keeps them poor and makes the people who live in the first named states rich. For instance: when a farmer living in Georgia buys SIOO worth of the necessaries of life 40 pr cent, of the money goes into the pocket of the manufacturer in Rhode Is land who does not give but S6O worth of goods for the whole SIOO. This is what protection does. It makes the manufacturer rich at the expense of the farmer. Will There Be War? The war cloud in central Europe still grows darker from day to day. The nations over which it hovers, Austria, Germany and Russia, pro test that the threatening movements of their armies are made only to secure peace, but the distrust these powers have of each other renders peace uncertain. Tho greatest hope that there will be peace is the fact that each power dreads to strike the first blow. The rulers know that the war, once commenced, would in all probability spread all oygs-Europe, and involve nearly nation. Now it is Austria against Russia, and in case of war Germany would aid Austria. This would naturally lead France to ally herself with Russia as against her inveterate enemy, Germany, and in that event Italy and Turkey would aid the Austrians and Germans. It would be a collossal contest; Rus sia, the giant of the North, and France against combined Europe. It is well that there is no Fred erick the Great, no Napoleon, no Charles XII on any of the thrones concerned. If there was he would seize the advantage by striking the first blow. But where such men would rush into war the present rulers will drift into it. In Russia, Germany, Austria, France,England, Turkey and Italy there are eleven millions of armed men. In case of war Austrian Gallacia, from present appearances, would be the scene of the first bloodshed. It is in that direction that Russian operations have excited most ap prehension, and so alarmed the Austrians that they have urged their Emperor to send an ultimatum to Russia forthwith. Should Aus tria succeed in beating back the Russians at this point and the struggle close to the advantage of the former, the trouble would ex tend no further. On the other hand should the Russians receive no se rious check in their advance south ward, or should they defeat the Austrians in a great pitched battle, then Austria would call on Germa ny to fulfill the conditions of the new triple alliance. It is a long line, iu that event, which Russia would have to protect, ex tending from the Baltic to Gallacia, and a German army would hardly fail to make an impression on it. If Russia were thus pushed, she would call upon France, and the secret understanding said to exist between these two powers would then be revealed. If France attack ed Germany, Austria and Germa ny would then have a right to call upon Italy. Italy's appearance in the field would lay her coasts and commerce bare to the attacks of the French fleets, whereupon Eng land would be asked to take a hand and Turkey' could hardly keep from being involved. The year just beginning may witness a change in the map of Europe. Bacon's Letter. A bevy of protectionists, headed by Howell, of the Constitution, re cently addressed a letter to A. O. Bacon asking him to express his views in regard to the present rev enue system. Bacon says the en tire revenue system ought to be abolished, and he takes up five col umns of the Constitution in argu ment in support of his views. There is no doubt but that the revenue system, as it exists now, is an evil, and that it should be abol ished as soon as practicable. Bit the first thing is to reduce the tar iff. Cleveland has placed the Dem ocratic party squarely on this issue, and by it he and the party of which he is the leader must stand or fall. It is no time for side issues, such as abolishing the internal revenue system, to be sprung, and for the Constitution, Bacon, and the small fraction of the Democratic party which they represent to attempt to do so is only to throw impediments in the way of the success of De mocracy and honest government. Take the tax off the necessaries of life. That is the issue, as presented by the Democratic party. The Re publican policy, as presented and advocated by Blaine, is in accord with Bacon’s views. Blaine is in favor of abolishing the revenue system, and the party to which he belongs endorses him and his views. As between Cleveland and Blaine Bacon is with Blaine. A Free Advertisement. An attorney living in Rome by the name of Scab Wright is engaged in looking up clients in this county. | He offers his services, for a cash consideration, to those who need an attorney in enjoining work on the railroad. Now, leaving out the question as to whether it is right or not for a-corporation to build a road where it pleases through a man’s farm whether he is willing or not, those who kick against the road will find by the time they bare paid Mr. Wright’s fees, cost, ect., that they would have been better off had they given the right of way. When a man's head is in the lion’s mouth it is not a good time to twist the lion’s tail. The road is coming, and the men who are constructing it will build it where they please. Our law makers,looking to the interest of communities in preference to that of individuals, gives them this light. Besides the corporation does not foot the bills for the right of way; the citizens of this county will have to do this, and those who insist on being paid for right of way are throwing the burden of paying for it on the shoulders of their neighbors, and not pn the cor poration. If any one will think about it seriously we believe they will come to tho conclusion that the road will confer more benefits than, in any event, it will work hardships. But be this as it may we claim the credit for having giv en Mr. Wright a free advertisement. His father used to charge the peo ple of this county toll for crossing the bridge at Rome ; now the so-, in his small way, is throwing all ob stacles he can in tho way of this county getting a railroad, and of course he can not object to us ad vertising his business free of charge. John Johnson, who twenty-one years ago, one night while his young wife, whom he had just married about a year before, was oa a trip to Athens, disappeared and was never heard from, has returned to Danielsville. He has lived most of his time in Oregon, where ‘he owns 2,700 head of cattle. He has plen ty of money. A year ago his wife obtained a divorce. He has not met her yet. More than 10,000,000 eggs are consumed by the city of New York each week. Mr. Spurgeon and the Baptist Union. Those who have rend “Our Eng lish Letters,” relating to the New and Old Theology, by Wra. Norton, D. D., in the Baptist Reflector, or Mr. Spurgeon’s “Down Grade” ar ticles in “Sword and Trowcil,” were certainly not surprised when Mr. Spurgeon withdrew from the so called Baptist Union, which was merely a missionary organization. Mr. Norton says: “Some of the members of this Union have been for some time advocating the ‘New Theology;’ teaching for doctrine commandments of man; denying that Christ bore on the Cross the penalty due to guilty man j denying that ‘Christ is the end of the law for righteousness,’ and that sinners are ‘made the righteousness of God in Him.’” All this is in direct opposition to the teachings of God’s word, as understood by true Baptists; therefore Mr. Spur geon says in his third article : “We cannot be expected to meet in any Union which comprehends those whose teaching is, upon fundamen tal points, exactly the reverse of that which we hold dear.” There are many things upon which a compromise is possible, but there are others in which it would be an act of treason to pretend to fellowship. “With deep regret we abstain from assembling with those whom we dearly love, since it would involve us in a confederacy with those with whom wo can have no communion in the Lord.” The Cen tral Baptist says: “Mr. Spurgeon’s withdrawal was due to his firm, un flinching adherence to Baptist ten ets. He not only most emphati cally protested against the New Theology teachings, but at a meet ing of the Union about twelve months ago, Unitarian ministers were officially recognized by the body. Against this he also pro tested. At the recent meeting of the Union this section in regard to the Unitarian preachers was again taken up, and Mr. Spurgeon with drew. In the light of these state ments every Baptist, every lover of truth must commend the action of Mr. Spurgeon. This evil leaven, the New Theology, is working strife, not only in the Baptist Union of England, but also in the other de nominations. The present chair man of the “Congregational Union,” Dr. Mackerral, with Parker, Ste venson, and Rogers are advocating this dangerous doctrine, together with Fairbain'e and Scott—presi dents of Congregational colleges. lu America, as scientific Theol ogy and Evolution, it has been taught in some colleges. The Central Baptist Association of California withdrew fellowship from the Ist Baptist church at San Jose two or three years ago, be cause of their adherence to the teachings of their “advanced( ?)” Pastor, N. F. Ravlin, the author of “Progressive Thought on Great Subjects,” a book in which, under the plea of liberalism and a desire to unite the Christian world—on scriptural doctrines are most elo quently set forth. When Ravlin, of California, Greenbaugh and Gherr, of Eng land, and all others who deny the personality of the Holy Ghost, and the vicarious document of Christ and call the fall of man a fable, though they may claim to be Bap tist and “believe in and practice immersion;” yet they are not in unison with those ministers, who, like Mr. Spurgeon, preach Baptist doctrines plainly and fearlessly “as they were once delivered to the Saints;” and it is more than folly to pretend to a union, or fellowship which exist only in name. Spurgeon truly says: “Manifest unity of all those who are one in Christ can only come byway of spiritual life, clearer light upon the one eternal truth, and a closer cleaving in all things to Him who is the Head, even Christ Jesus.” Baptism is only one thing—a command of our Savior—therefore important; yet a “closer cleaving” in this command alone, will not insure manifest unity among those whom He has bought with His own precious blood, and to whom He has said: “If you love me ye will keep my commandments.” Mr. Spurgeon rightly has it—“A closer cleaving in ail things to Him who is The Head, even Christ Jesus.” This is not narrow sectarianism but loyalty to God.
