Atkins, have returned from the University,—J. M. Merritt left to-day lor Clayton, Ga., where he intends to sojourn a fortnight.— Mr. William Carter, an aged citi zen of Jackson, died at his resi dence close here Wednesday, The greatest eulogy we can pay him is that he was a devout Christian, Appcllo For the Observer: —I believe Har rison and Morton will be elected. My rcat-ona are as follows: Cleveland’s mesiogp to congress will be condsider ed the pls'form of the democratic par ty. The patchwork done at St. Lou is vrw merely a side-show to produce obscnri'y Michigan and Wisconsin were be coni'n r and ub tnl sta*es before Cleve land roc mmended free wool and him be b t no-v they are intensely repuh lu& i The e*r>e cause accounts (or the n< i'* ls>t;e republican majority in Oregon Thp Chinese matter is an is sue < ’lie |.aer The treaty regular me and th i< emotive laws have already pot a ’ p to Chinese imigration Har risen’a record on that question may weaken li'tn in some localities, but Cleveland’s free wool and lumber ill far nil re than offset the loss The Pa cific siates are largely engaged in the she*p industry, and as Australian and New Zealand wool can he laid down in Ban Francisco for twelve cents per pound, free wool means de struction of that interest. New Jer sey and Connecticut are largely en gaged in manufacturing. The labor ing population are intelligent, and know the effect of low tariff on wages. * Connecticut is largely engaged in the cultivation of tobacco, especially along the Connecticut and Housatonic rivers. Cigar making is also oarried on extensively, and the people are cla morons for the repeal of the tobacco lax. New York is a great wool grow ing state, also a large manufacturing state, and self interest will cause them to vote for protection The voters of all the doubtful states are intelligent, and can read statistics. By referring to the eensne report, they learn that the entire accumulation of wealth in the united States, from the landing of the first settlers at James town, the year 1860—most of the time under a deoiocra.io administration, and with a low tariff, was but $1,000,000,- 000, and that in 1880, the accumulat ed capital was not withstanding, the great loss of the slaves and the devastations of war. An inoiease of $30,000,000,000 in twenty years, under, repnblicah ad ministrations and a high protective tariff. The poverty of the South de monstrates the effect of baying sap plies abroad, and buying supplies in England will, in the same manner, im poverish onr whole country. So, 1 think all intelligent men will favor raising supplies at home; mak ing all supplies at home, and keeping their money at home; being always in dependent, snd never to be famished out, like the late Confederacy. The rivalry and competition of 60,000,000 of people in thirty eight states and eight territories, will keep prices all right, and wages all right, and I be lieve the American people will think fo snd vote for protection; vote for the united States and not for England; for Lome industries; for keeping their mon ey at home snd enriching themselves instead of others. Thos. Hayden. The points made by Dr. Hayden cover hie argnment from a republican view; bat oDe is led to suppose from the article, that the democratic party is contending for free-trade. Such in not the case. The democratic party goes bft'ore the country pledged to an economical administration of the gov ernment; >he reduction of the danger ons surplus in the National Treasury, and the shifting of the burdens of tax ation from the poor, laboring millions of the ctnntry to the shoulders of those greedy monopolists, so long fat. temd and fostered by the government. T is is what tbe republicans got to meet. On this is-ne the united de mocracy of New York will stand by Cleveland, an iso far *-■ that state is concerned, there is no ground for fear. California in 1880, had only a little oVei sixty one million invented yin manufactories, while her farms were v'o th two hundred and 6ix'y-two mil i >ns. Thousands of these farms are mortgaged to day on account of that rotten policy of the repuolican party to tax tbe poor farmer to death and protiot the manufacturer. California <:0 s not need protection, and she will not vote for it. Besides all this, the immigration of Chinese into Californi* is what ruins labor in that state, and Harrison’s record on this question alone will ruin him on the Pacific slope. The grandest victory awaits tbe democracy that has ever been re corded, Influence, [For the Observer ] There ie nothing of more vital im portance in sooiety than a proper de portment in and religions association*. How is this accomplish ed? By wielding a proper influence over those that surround us. This should be oommenced in infanoy, and taught by the mother at the child’s earliest perception. How important then, she should be to carry oat the injunction of the wise man, "Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not impart from it.” This iB easily done by sweet, tender words, a loving smile, and a good, Christian deportment at all times and nnder all circumstances, at home as well as abroad, in evil as well as good report; proving to your chil dren and the world, that you are liv ing cut the life you proless. Thus you may, step oy step, lead the mind from this life of sorrow, to a higher and holier stats of existence, for it is by little steps that a journey is per formed. Words added make a volume. Therefore, ii our example and influence are directed right, they will elevate the young mind and lead it onward and upward, until it sods in eternal bliss. On the other hand: Let our examples and influenoe take the oppo site direotion and awful will be the end. Mrs. A. B. Mbass, Cost, Ga. An Rthopian who Changed his Bkin by Eating the Contents of a Stolen Can of Potash. Dawson, Jane 22 —-Last Monday morning a little negro boy stole n can of potash, thinking it was a can of oys ters, and after a half hour’s hard woik succeeded in opening it. He thought the * juice’’ had all dried out of the oysters, bat rather than attempt to ■teal another and run the risk of being caught, he decided to take them dry He ate the whole contents of the can and was licking it out when discover ed. Everybody thought he wonld be a dead nigger in a few minutes and no effort was made to save hinc. But strange to say, it did not eyen make tbe child sick: bat in an hoar’s time began to work out all over him through the pores of hie skin, and in four bsurs bad eaten up orrottedaway every particle of bis clothing, leaving him as naked as he was when he first saw the light 11'8 parents procured another suit of clothes, but before putting them on took the precaution of plunging him into a Urge tub of water to wash of! the potash which was still oozing ont at every pore. The ohild enjoyed tbe bath and pawed and kicked around like a tod in a well. This pawing and kicking, together with the rub bing and scrubbing of the parents, soon churned tbe water into a white foam or lather, and tbe parents and spectators wery much astonished to find that his Bkin was taming perfect ly white wherever it was well robbed. In half an hour the child was as white all over as any white ohild , in the city. They wiped him dry and reclothed him, and he was ready to take another tramp round and steal some more "oysters/’ but his parents restrained him. Oa examination of Hbia whfdrinri assumed a bright, brown color, it was found to be eom ing out rapidly. By combing and working at it gently, in a few honrs there was not a hair left on his heap. His head was washed and made as white as his body. At this writing—forty eight hoars after eating the potash—there is a beautiful growth of fine, straight, dark •olored hair appearing on his head ex aotly like that of a white baby. A Great sensation has been created by this little incident, and nearly every body in the oity and many from the eountry have visited the parents of this child and gazed in wonder upon this strange transformation.
