The social, religions, and political

A camel will work seven or eight
days without drinking. In this it

“Resolved that the negro should bo

The two most noted figures in the
long procession, at the inauguration,
which filed by the reviewing stand,
were Generals Lee and Hancock; < ne
a Confederate, and the other a Federal.
A correspondent in an exchange
says, “by the Grace of God they were
made husband and wife.” We always
thought that it was by the par ies own
Grace aud pleasnre, and the grace of
God to follow.
Gen. Neal Dow, ‘(the hero of New

The Alabama legislature has pass
ed an act making it penal for a i er'son
to appear or be in public, or in the
presence of one or more ii.dividual?,
except at home, in an intoxicated con

toxication is no excuse for crime,
therefore it will bring a new feature in
the law of evidence.
The Sunny South is making some
strange ami uncomplimentary impres

Northern Exposition visitors, or that
clement does not reflect anything
creditable to the North. No question
hut that a spirit of indiffeience and
disrespect to.vanls, and superiority
over the Sonth pervades the Northern
mind. We can judge for our selves,

It was noticeable that Hem'ticks at
traoted more attention and applause at
the inauguration than Cleveland. Mr.
Cleveland insisted upon a plain and
informal trip to the capitol, ind no
reception on his arrival.
The press and people of the State
are speaking out in unmeasured con
demnation of Joe Brown in the Spjei
outrage. The legislature should pass
aresolution of censure and request him
to resign a position lie has dishonored
—Sparta Isiimaei.ite
Hon. 4’. J. Lumpkin, of Dade, is
the man to introduce the resolution.
He is one of the Representatives that
have not been bought by Brown.
—Ac worth News <y Parmer.
Joe Brown was decidedly and work
ed for Speer’s confirmation; though
unexplainable, yet we do not see any
leasoa for questioning his honor and
integrity on the account of it. One
thing certain, lie was open and bold
in the matter, and nothing exists irom
which to conceive an idea that it was
for any personal advantage. We are
strongly of the opinion that the “press
and people”, and the world and devil
will assume a task that they can never
accomplish, when they attempt to con
vince twelve “intelligent and upright”
men of a single instance wherein Joe
Brown has over sacrificed the iiiterots
of the people of Georgia for his own
nor any private individual or corpora
tion, though soma of his public acts
are not consonate with onr feelings
If he has dishonored the position
which he occupies, the people of Geor
gia are dishonored .It is certainly tine'
that our Hon. T. J. Lumpkin is not
bought by Joe Brown, and we would
consider it a slur upon our sister coun
ties to intimate tliet their Representa
tives were men that could be so bought
Hon. T. J, LumpkiN will never bead
such \ resolution, though Joe Brown’s
employees without just cause opposed
his election from this comity.
A very bitter crusade against tobac
ca is organixsng in New England,
According to the temperance society
in that enlightened region, the use of
tobacco is ‘‘a sin againstsGod and hu
manity.” An eminent philanthropist
in Maine is helping on the good work
by refusing to give a cent in charity
to any family that keeps a dog or has
a tobacco consumer in it.
Prohibition in Georgia.
Out of the 138 counties in Georgia
there are now 101 that have total or
partial pr diibtiion, and 92 that have
total prohibition. r l his result has been
reached by elections in each county
under the local option law. In 105
county elections the prohibitionists
have lost but 4--WaHhington, Deca
tur (two liea\y negro counties) Floyd
and Gordon Tiie work will go ou
steadily until, in our opionion, 132
counties out of the 138 will be prolii

will be passed this summer which will
test the matter in every county in
wliieli whiskey is still sold.

The Chattanooga Times a few days
since published a dispatch troin Blunt
county, Ala., to the effect, that Alvin
Dixon, tax cellector of that county,
had left home one night, leaving a
large amount of the tax money in care
oi liis wife, and returning with his
face blacked, attempted to rob hi>
own bowse ot the money, whereupon
his wife shot and killed him. It not
only appears that the entire matter is
a fabric, but Dixon has been tax col
leetot for ten years and a man of a
good family and himself of high stand
ing. With “anger in his heart anil
litigation in his mind” lie has filed a
libel suit against the Times, claim
ing ipi.o,ooo dsmages. It is stated
that lie will also prosecute a enmina

A H oru t
Boys, don’t swear or use any other j
bad language that may cause yom
triends to be ashamed of you. Swear
ing is a mark of low-breeding, and its
tendency is, to degrade the mind. Its
injurious’' effects may not be felt at
the piesent time, but the linpit will
continue to grow, until it will lie al
most impossible to brake it. A bad
word or slang phrase learned in boy
hood will always be ready on your
tongue’s end, and will often cause you
shame and sorrow as well as your
friends. Good people when sick and
deliiious, bave been known to use the
most wicked and improper language,
and when told of it afterwards attrib
uted it to early impressions and hab
its. The oae’of hlang phrases, so com
mon now a-day is really disgusting to
people ol intelligence and nfincment.
Girls, don’t you fall into this habit. Il
any one in the family must rC | foil t
them, let your big brother do it. You
have no idea how it sounds to a per
son not used to it, to beer a young la
dy say, when asked to go to a certain
place, “Not much,” oi if asked to
write a short article for the Times,
hear bed say, “(JanP'jseo it.” \Ye
sonietimer hear a young lady in speak
ing of a young gentleman, say, she
intands “to go tor him,” and perhaps
if that same voting gentleman calls to
take her buggy riding, she will an-
swer, “Not fai Joe.” Young ladies
of good character and good education
sometimes fall into this habit, think
ing it shows wit and smartness, but
if they would look at the matter cor
icctly they would at once see it is
neither lady-like or becoming. “I bet”
“you bet” sounds badly enough among
boys trading jack-knives, or men trad
ing horses, but the contrast is shock
ing when we boar a young lady repeat
them. They seem at once to lowei
her in the ranks of intelligence and
refinement, and place her on a level
with men of rough character, from
whom she would naturally shrink
with horror and disgust. Good lan
guage is the blossom of good sense,
so let each one cultivate it as a choice
plant,

Newton county will enter suit against Hen
ry county at tbe iijirtf jaching term of court to
recover one-half of the amount expended in
re-building 1.-dnnd Shout* bridge. About two
years ago the bridge was swept away by the
freshet. Newton county wanted it replaced,
but llenrv refused to bear the proportional
expense that would have bt-oi: entailed upon
her. Newton went ahead then and built the
bridge, and now seeks to recover half tho a
mouut spent ill ils.eoustuction. The claim
mounts to something over si,ooo.
The meeting of the spring court* reopens
the work of the grand juries- and from the
presentments ef these bodies the latest ex
pressions of the popular will may be learned.
One thing is notable in all tUo presentments
of tho last two years and that is tho decline
of crimes in tho counties which have adopted
prohibitory legislation. It would seem that
the loss in revenue flour the refusal to license
whiskey shops is “more than balanced by the
lessened c.iminal expenses of tho county.
