Col. J. L. Boynton pulled a peti¬

petition prays for tho appointment of
Captain John Milledgo to the posi-

recognizing the ability of other ap-
plicants.

The Shollman correspondent of tho
Cuthbert Leader says: “Our merch¬
ants aro alarmed at the amount of
goods the ladies order from the mail
order houses of Atlanta, Macon,
Louisville, and even Now York and
Chicago. They say they can sell the
same goods just as cheap as the
ladies can get. them delivered here.
But the trouble is the ladies have no
way of finding out what tho merch¬
ants have except by going up town
and seeing, and they had rather sit
down and nuke out an order from a
catalogue. A little advertising would
give the merchants much of the trade
now enjoyed by mail order houses,
and mote advertising would give it
all to ttiem.” You are right, my
friend. Our merchants stand in
their own light by economizing on
priutor's ink. The present genera¬
tion has the greatest respect for the
printer and his little paper or cata¬
logue, and will invariably speud their
tuoney with those merchants, let
them be far or near, who place before
our wives, daughters and friends an
attractive advertisement telling of
their bargains. The Monitor is a
weekly visitor to very nearly every
tiome in Calhoun county, and those
merchants wishing to enjoy the pat¬
ronage of our readers should say so
through its columns.

off to himself and let his mind reflect
for a short lime, or, in other words,
takes n stroll by the light of the
lamps eternally swung in the heavens
by the hands of the Almighty and
“look through nature up to Nature’s
God,” we are satisfied that we are
allowed to live among a Christian

what we want that does a printer

his town and county—it is what we
receive.
We have been pulling for certain
ends ever s ; nce we took control] of
the MONITOR, and firmly believo that
when our true an tried friends are
satisfied we deserve that which we
ask for we will receive it.
May a kind Providence continue
to bless Morgan and Calhoun county,
whether we sink or swim, and if we
don’t lose our gourds we will swim.
We can wait a few months for an

While in conversation with a citi¬
zen of Randolph county the other
day tho Monitor learned that the
handsome monument erected at
Cuthbert in memory of our Confed¬
erate dead a short while ago has
never been fully paid for; that the
cost was about $1,100, and that only
$000 has been paid on aeeo ant. We
also hoard it hinted that if the bal¬
ance was not soon paid tho monument
would bo removed aud sold to Daw¬
son. Isn't there enough patriotic
veterans and sons of veternaa in
Randolph to proven this??
Col. Jeff Boyntou says an artesian
well on the square iu front of the
court house would be worth $5,000
to the county, aud that if we can get
it at the price aud terms offered by a
responsible man we had better’ jump
at the opportunity—that he will tako
one at the same price—$1,200—with
such a guarantee.
If the people of the Leary district
will help us to bore au artesian well,
we will help them to secure the stock
law.

THACKERAY AND GOETHE.
The Novelist's fiMrst Interview With the
Great Poet.
In The Century there is an article by
Walter Vulpius, entitled “Thackeray at
Weimar. ” The following is Thackeray’s
account of his first meeting with
Goethe:
Of course I remember very well the
perturbation of spirit with which as a
lad of 19 I received the long expected
invitation that the Herr Gebeimerath
would see ma This notable audience
took place in a little antechamber of
his private apartments, covered all
round with antique casts and bas-reliefs.
Ho was habited in a long gray drub red-
ingote, with a white neckcloth and a
red ribbon in his buttonhola Ho kept
his hands behind his back, just as in
Rauch's statuetta His complexion was
very bright, clear and rosy, his eyes ex¬
traordinarily dark, piercing and bril¬
liant. * * * I fancied Goethe must have
been still more handsome as an old man
than even in the days of his youth. His
voice was very rich aud sweet. Ho ask¬
ed me questions about myself, wli ich I
answered as best I could.
Vidi tauturn — I saw him but throe
times—.once walking in the garden of
his house in the Frauouplau, once going
to step into his chariot on a sunshiny
day. wearing a cap and a cloak with
a red collar. He was caressing at the
time a beautiful little golden haired
granddaughter, over whose sweet, fair
face <he earth has long since closed.
[Alma von Goethe died at the age of 17
years while on a visit in Vienna in
1844. j
Though his sun was setting, the sky
round about, was calm and bright, and
that little Weimar was illumined by it.
In every quo of those kind salons the talk
was still of art aud letters. At the court
the conversation was exceedingly frieml-
ly. simple and polished. The grand
duchess, a lady of very remarkable en-
dovvments, would kindly borrow our
hooks fioui us and graciously talk to
us young mui about our literary tastes
and pursuit**. In the respect paid by
this court to the patriarch of letters
there was something ennobling, I think,
alike to the subject and sovereign.

THE PERSIAN GULF.
Natural Phenomena Which to the Un¬
traveled T&ight Appear Incredible.
In his address as president of the
British Institution cf Electrical Engi¬
neers Sir Henry Mance said it was in
connection with the cable to India, by
way cf the Persian guif, that his asso¬
ciation with the submarine telegraph
commenced. In the Persian gulf one oc¬
casionally witnessed natural phenomena
which, to the uutraveled, might appear
incredible. In the midst of the moun¬
tains near Mussendom be had seen during
a thunderstorm such displays of light-
ning as baified description. He had, at
certain seasons of the year, observed the
water in the bay—which was large
enough to hold ail the fleets of the
world—present exactly the appearance
of blood. Not many miles from Mussen-
dom he had witnessed mysterious fire
circles flitting over the surface of the
sea at a speed of 100 miles an hour, a
phenomenon which no one had yet been
able to explain.
While steaming along the coast of
Baluchistan lie had been called from
his cabin at night to observe the more
common phenomenon of a milky sea,
the water for miles around being sin¬
gularly white and luminous. In the
same locality the sea was, for short pe¬
riods, as if putrid, the fish being de¬
stroyed in myriads, so that to prevent
a pestilence measures had t-o be taken
to bury those cast up on the beach. This
phenomenon was doubtless due to the
outbreak of a submarine volcano and
the liberation of sulphurated hydrogen.
In these waters jellyfih wero as large
as footballs, and sea snakes of brilliant
hue were met with in great numbers.
On one occasion a swarm of sea snakes
forced their way up one of the creeks
in Karachi harbor, apparently for the
purpose of having a battle royal, for the
ground between high and low 7 water
mark was thickly covered with their
bodies in positions which betokened a
deadly struggle. —Boston Transcript.
