Died at Kilgo, Gregg county, Texas, Jan. 14th, 1888, Mrs. Mary Henderson, in the 93rd year of her age. She was the widow of W. B. Henderson who resided at the place in Broomtown Valley known as the Henderson Gap on Lookout moun tain. Mr. Henderson and family re moved from South Carolina and settled in Broomtown Valley in the year 1833, when the country was in a wild and unsettled state. He had to contend with privations, hardships, and difficulties known only to the pioneer, yet in the prov idence of a covenant keeping God he lived to see t he morals of society wonderfully improved, churches erected to the worship of God, schools established for the training of the young. Ami I ail the privations incident to the early settler Mr. Henderson eve ' trusted t’> the promises of that Goff who both said 1 will he a God to thee and thine; I will never leave thee nor forsake th" 1 . llimwlf and wife were among those who first organized Alpine Presbyterian church, in this county. They, with others who have long since been gathered to the saints final res'.,, viz : Capt. Knox and wife, Robert B >ll. Hugh Knox and wife, with many others, not now remembered by the writer, under the ministry of Rev. A. Y. Lockbridge whose name was once almost a household word in Chattooga county, organized and built Alpine church. Mr. Hender son live! to see his sons an I daugh ters arrive at man and womanhood, and to the rejoicing of his heart, embrace the religion of Jesus Christ. He died in May, 1863, and like Si meon of old could say, ‘-Lord now let thou thy servant depart in peace for mine eyes have seen thy salva tion.” Mrs. Mary Henderson was born in South Carolina in 1795 ; married W. B. Henderson in 1816. Her maiden name was Barry, sister of Dr. and Charlie Barry of Atlanta, Ga. She joined the Presbyterian church about the time of her mar riage in which communion she re mained a most consistant and devo ted Christian up to the time of her death. After the death of her hus band she remained on the old home stead till 1870, when at the instance of her children who had gone and were going to Texas, she removed to that state, and upon her arrival there her first thought was the or- j ganization of a Presbyterian church ■ at Longview to which she gave the j name of Alpine in memory of the i Alpine left in Chattooga and the | many dear and sacred ties there-1 with connected. Mrs. Henderson , was a woman of more than ordina ry intellect with a mind thoroughly stored with useful and religious knowledge. She had great love for doctrines, principles and form of government in the Presbyterian church with which she was most familiar. She had a most compre hensive knowledge of the Holy Scriptures which were able to make wise unto salvation. Her life was that of an eminent servant of the Lord Jesus Christ whose course and kingdom was ever near and dear to her heart. She often made men tion of her hopes and prospects of the joys to come, when borne down by the infirmaties of age she could by faith lay hold of the promises set forth in the gospel and say for me to live in Christ, to die is gain. For her death had no terror and she often spoke of it with that compla cency a weary traveler would men tion his loved home. She was the mother of fifteen children nine of whom still survive her. One of them a n inister of the gospel; six had gone before and were doubtless looking and waiting for her. All of her children living reside in Tex as except A. J. Henderson, of Chat toogaville, Ga. While they mourn the loss of a dear affectionate mother they weep not as those who have no hope. They realize that their loss is her eternal gain. In her death the church has lost a shining light, her family a devoted mother, the world the example of a Christian in whom -was no guile. Os such it is written ; Blessed arc they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life and may enter in through the gate into the holy city; yea, blessed are the dead who die in tho Lord. GEORGIA ITEMS. Last week Amos Grant, colored, of Baker county, killed his wife, son and sister-in-law with an axe, and then hanged himself. The people of Austell, ten miles from Atlanta, are exercised over a tiger which took up its abode in their midst over a year ago. The tiger is blind, and they do say it is , catching—that those who become ; intimate with the tiger become , blind drunk. The revenue officers fought the tiger last week, but its : owners c ime to the rescue, liberated it, fired upon its captors and chased I them oil'. At last accounts the tiger ■ ■ was as wild as a wolf and blind as . a bat. , i A few weeks ago the wife of W. ; S. Dimsdale and a Mr. Harper, both of Ball Play, Cherokee county, de- : sorted their families and went off i together. Two weeks ago Mrs. . . Diinsdale died in North Carolina i j among strangers, having been de- ! sorted,by Harper when she became sick. A week ago Mr. Diinsdale I married again, having heard of his I faithless wife's death. Here are ; true incidents which rivals fiction, i and makes tragedy blush, and brings tears to the eyes of virtue. The Georgia Agricultural Socie ty met al Waycross February 14th, ! and continued three days. ; Election Notice. The following election notice was I j found tacked on a tree in Alabama : ' | “Next Monday thar’s going to be ■ a special ’lecksun in this here dees- I trick fur constubel, an’ as sheriff I uv this here county, I wanter say • I that I don’t want the Bellbuckle ' boys to be foolin’ round the polls. They wouldn’t vote fur me when they had a chance an’ now dad blame ’em—l would put it stronger i but it mout be agin the law—they 1 j shan’t vote a tall. This thing uv ' rid in’ over the law in this county ! and votin’ agin the man that ever I body knows otter be sheriff has got to stop, an’ 1 don’t know uv a bet ter way than by makin’ a shinin’ zample uv tho Bellbuckle boys, dad blame ’em. Right here I wanter give the good people of this here county a p’inter. Vote fur Tom Hicks, fur he is a friend uv mine an’ he’pcd me whup tho Pentycost boys last fall. I want this here ‘leckshtin ter be quiet, an’ the fust man that kicks up a row mout wish I he hadn’t.” I One of the surest wavs to com mand success in this life and hap ] ness iu the next is to tell the truth. Not that this alone is sufficient to i secure either, but a man who culti -1 vates truth until he sticks to it for i love of it cannot be bad. The love of truth is the foundation of a character that storms may beat against but it will never fall. Eve ry one loves a truthful man or wo- I man, and such never lack friends, i And truth ought to be acted as well as told. To act a lie, or ’to I cause any one to believe ji lie by | deception, is to tell a there is ; no difference if a false impression ■ is conveyed, it docs not matter 1 y what instrumentality. An Important Element Os the success of Hood’s Sarsapa rilla is the fact that every purchas- I er receives a fair equivalent for his I money. The familiar headline “100 Doses One Dollar,” stolen by imita tors. is original with and true only of Hood’s Sarsaparilla. This can easily be proven by any one who desires to test the matter. For real | economy, buy only Hood’s Sarsa parilla. Sold by all druggists. Mother—You, Isaiah, didn’t I told you not fo’ to go outen dat gate! Isaiah—l didn’t do it, mam my, ’deed I didn’t.

Bismarck made a speech last week in the German Reichstag, in which he said the prospects for peace in in Europe were good. Bismarck does not agree with the newspaper correspondents.

Newspaper Trials. Rev. T. De Witt Talmage sa; s oie of the great trials of the newf-' piper profession is that its mem-1 bers arc compelled to see more of ■ the sham of the world than any j other profession. Through every I newspaper office, day after day, go ' all the weaknesses of the world—all the vanities that want to be puffed, all the revenges that want to be reaped, all the mistakes that want to be corrected, all the dull speak ers that want to be thought elo quent, all the meanness that wants to get its wares noticed gratis in the editorial column in order to save the tax of the advertising column ; all the men who want to be set right who were never right; all the crack brained philosophers with stories as long as their hair and as gloomy as their finger nails in mourning be cause bereft of soap—all the bcr s who come to stay five minutes, but talk live hours. Through the edi torial and reportorial rooms all the follies and shams of the world are seen, day after day, and the temp tation is to believe neither in God, man nor woman. It is no surprise to me that in this profession there are some skeptical men; I only wonder that newspaper men believe anything. Two society young men of Cave Spring are charged with forgery. The young people of that place re cently had a leap year party, and I the forgers, in order to have some ! fun, perpetrated a joke on two young bachelors by sending them notes signing to them the names of two popular Cave Spring belles. The young men were rejoiced, but their rejoicing was changed into I anger when they learned who had sent the notes. So angry were they that they went before a Justice of the Peace and swore out a warrant for the offenders. The result of the trial is awaited with interest. Dr. R. B. Thompson, who owns a beautiful carp pond near Cedar town, Ga., has for some time been finding dead fish of all sizes, of this, his special favorite, floating on top of mornings. Investigating the cause, he discovered two cranes of a grey variety were paying nightly visit thereto and doing this deadly work. With a shotgun and patient vigils during the night, tho doctor has been rewarded by viewing the dead body of one of tho pestiferou s fowls, and has served notice on the other to expect a similar fate. Miss Annie Utsley, a highly es teemed young lady living in Colle ten county, S. C., was to have been married on Feb 9th. On the Bth— the day before—while standing alone before a fire place, her cloth ing caught, and she was burned to a blister. She died in fifteen min utes. Her affianced husband is al most crazy with grief. Henry Brownlee, colored, aged 39 years, was arrested last week charged with seducing a white girl, aged 16 years. All the parties live in Cherokee county, this state. Brownlee was employed by the grandfather of the girl whom he ruined.. Great excitement exists at Canton over the affair. Brownlee will be tried at the next term of the Cherokee superior court, which convenes two weeks hence. Mr. Geoige, a section boss on tl e Rome & Decatur rialroad, was kill ed last week by being thorwn from a car which was running, but which a negro brakesman, contrary to orders, suddenly stopped. A col ored man was also seriously injur ed. The negro who was the cause of the trouble fled. The New York Court of Appeals lias decided that hotel keepers may serve their guests wines on Sunday. A lower court had decided other wise. Mr. Wilson has been re-elected U. S. senator from lowa, and Mr. Walthall unanimously re-elected by the Mis issippi legislature to the same position. The taxable property in North Carolina amounts to $210,025,000, an increase over 1886 of $9,000,111. The campaign is under way in Mexico, and it is said Diaz is cer tain to be re-elected president. TEACHING FORGIVENESS, j LESSON VIII, INTERNATIONAL SUN- : DAY SCHOOL SERIES, FEB. 19. I Text of tho Lenon, Matt, xvlll, 31-33. ! Golden Text, Matt, vi, 12—Memorize • Verses 21-22—Comment by Rev. Wil- ' liam Newton, D. I>. [From Lesson Tleljxir Quarterly, by permission of 11. 8. Hoffman, Philadelphia, publisher.] Notes.—My brother, or fellow disciple. Seventy times seven, or indefinitely for 4RO times; clearly mark tho unlimited exercised forgiveness. Take account, sec how much they owed. Servants, officers, or those in charge of some trust. Talents, a talent was 3,000 shekels, and a shekel of silver was about fifty cents. Went out, i. 0., from his Lord’s presence. Hundred pence, a pence was the Roman denarius, valued about fourteen cents. Wroth, very angry. Tormentors, officers of the prison. Likewise, in the same way. Trespasses, sins or wrongs against you. V. 21. Moved by our Lord's directions as to the treatment by his disciples of their of fending brethren, Peter comes with the very practical question a»to the extent that for giveness might be required of him. He wanted to know how often ho must forgive? Clearly he thought there was a limit to its exorcise and a point beyond upon which he could not be required to go. Now tho rabbis taught that three was that limit. Peter, therefore, doubled that number and added one to it, and then thought that even tho master could ask no more. Wc can smile at the earnestness of the man, the darkness that still shut him in and his struggling toward tho truth. But just hero, how far—how very far—do many of tho professing jieople of tho Lord stand even in this dispensation of tho spirit below Peter’s “seven times?” V. 22. How heavenly these words are. Clearly “seventy times seven’’—4Vo times— are an unlimited number? “Even as I had pity on thee” is tho divine measure. And until that is reached wo must forgive as freely as wo have been forgiven. V. 23. Tho whole doctrine of forgiveness is illustrated in this parable. God’s forgive ness of us is the reason why wo should for- V. 24. No doubt these servants were officers to whom some public trust had been confided. And this special one had prob ably farmed out some portion of the king’s domain. In no other way is it easy to see how such an enormous dobt could be .*reated. For a talent of silver would bo about (J1,<500. and “ten thousand talents” would sum up t ?r>jX)i>,OGo A K .'ld v ould, oi course, bo propofTOnably greater. And if f by this dnfirmoiw sum the master meant L represent our sins against God, it is a most I telling point that tins great debtor was found when “be had begun to reckon." No ex tended search was needed. The proof lay upon the surfaca The records of the case at once revoalcd it. There was the proof of the dobt. And there was no escape from it. And if that great debt represent our sins bo foro God, how fitting is the statement, “oirti was brought unto him, etc.” For this debtor would not havo come of himself. Tho king’s rn » engers brought him. And so in tho case of our sins. Tho king has many messengers to bring us into his presence and open before us tho record of our sins. And as we survey tho record, there is no answer to the question, “Is not thy wickedness great, and thine iniquity infinitef’ Job xxii, 5. V. 25-27. All these incidents are necessary to tho parabio an illustrating a human trans action, and aro not to lx) regarded as measur ing tho divine mode of forgiveness. Two great truths aro illustrated by tho para ble, i. e., 1. There is no limit to tho exercise of for giveness, and 2. He who has received forgiveness froni God, will always extend it to man. V. 28-30. It is a most significant point that it was when the “servant went out,” L e. —from his lord’s presence—that ho found his indebted fellow servant. He had uo time for such search when ho stood boforo his lord. llis own great need occupied him then. But when he went out from hLs presence, ho could look up tho little matters of his fellow serv ant’s indebtedness to him elf. And what a contrast is here? “Ten thousand talents” on tho one side, and a “hundred pence’’ on the other. Yet this taking by tho throat, this Pay me that thou owest; this casting into prison—how clearly all this tells of one who has no sense of forgiveness iu his own ex perience. Ilere again wo have the human the parable, the operations of the king.” Beyond question, v. 31 mod ifWpand explains v. 27. Clearly the debt tliaL ’’’as forgiven could not be enforced, and the dobt that was enforced could never have boon forgiven. So that the principle hero involved is that tho reality of the divine for giveness in a given case will bo shown by tho reality of our forgiveness of those) who sin against us. There is no such thing rs re-en forcing the penalty of sins that had once l>ccn forgiven. The unmerciful servant was not troubled by his great debt. He would willingly have made it larger if ho had not been brought to tho king. It was only tho penalty that troubled him. And he whom that servant represents is the man who thought lie was converted when ho was only terrified, and who hod uo use for tho lovo of God beyond the fact that in some way it could save him from tho penalty of his sin. And when he goes out from tho Lord’s pres ence; whoa his sense of danger is lost in the promise-* of tho Gospel, the current of hi.; old nature flows on as before. V.’hy should ho not havo hia hundred jieuce? Why should he not claim that which is his due? And so his claim to be forgiven is proved by tho ruling spirit of bis life to have been utterly without foundation. Tho principle, therefore, bolds good in every case, that he who refuses to forgive shows that ho himself had never been forgiven. And now, in reviewing this para ble, ivo learn, 1. That the duty of forgiveness is absolutely unlimited. How, indeed, can it be otherwise, if it flows out of what God has done for us ? “ Even as I had -pity on thee,” is tho divine rule. Therefore to one who has been himself forgiven tho right to refuse forgiveness docs not exist. How can we reach the limit of our “seventy times seven ?” 2. Our sins against God arc practically without number. Is not this just tho mean ing of the ton thousand talents of the parable I “Wo cannot answer him one of a thousand.’’ 3. Tho offenses of oui- fellow men against ourselves are, in comparison, insignificant Viewed in any other light, measured by any other standard, they may be very great. But tho parable sots the one over against tho other; our 10,000 talents, with our follow servant’s 100 i>cnce. And that comparison remains. And the practical operation of this truth is that because God has forgiven us we ought also to forgive one another. It fol lows from this that the power lead ing to forgiveness is not one of tho forces of our nature. It is not native ami ability of temper. It is simply and alone the sen* eof God’s pard ling love to us, flow ing out in forgiveness to others. As an« «- sity, therefore, whore the sense of that lorn is absent, that forgiveness cnnngt appcf-n Takelho N e ws.s 1.2 §in ava nce.
