In a Dead Man’s Pocket.
Stephen Allen Price was a man
who was liked’and looked up to by
all who knew him. He was honest,
kind and true, a warm friend and
good neighbor. The boys and girls
all liked him because he never for¬
got that he had been young once
himself. He was never still: and
cross and bossy with them, but was
their good friend. He became rich,
was made mayor of New York city,
and lived to be very old. lie lost
his life in a steamboat disaster.—
Those who found his dead body
found a scrap of printed paper in his
poeketbook. It was so worn with
oft reading that they could scarcely
make out the words, but this is what
was upon the paper:
Keep good company or none.—
Never be idle.
If your hands cannot be nsefuily
employed, attend to the cultivation
of your mind.
Always speak the truth. Make
few promises.
Live up to your engagements.
Keep your own secrets, if you
have any.
When you speak to a person, look
him in the face.
Good company and good conver¬
sation are the very sinews of virtue
Good character is above all things
else.
Your character cannot be essen¬
tially injured except by your own
acts.
If any one speaks evil of you, let
your life be so that none will believe
him.
Drink no kind of intoxicating lii
quors.
Ever live (misfortune excepted)
within your income.
When you retire to bed, think
over what you have been doing dur¬
ing the day.
Make no haste to get rich, if you
would prosper, s
Small and steady gains give com¬
petency with tranquility of mind.
Never play at any game of chance.
Avoid temptation, through fear
you may not withstand it.
Earn money before you spend it.
Never run in debt, unless you see
plainly a way tc get out again.
Never borrow, if you possibly can
avoid it.
Do not marry until you are able
to support a wife.
Never speak evil of any one. Be
just before you aro generous.
Keep yourself innocent if yon
would be happy.
Save when you are young to spend
when you are old.
Read over the above maxims, at
least once a week.

The Carolina Forest Fires.
CharlEscn, Deeembor 2. —Chares
ton has been filled with smoke from
forest fires in the surrounding coun¬
try. The telegraph wires are down
on the line of the Northeastern road,
and the full extent of the damage ifi
not known. The village of l’ina
polis narrowly escaped destruction.
Mrs, Kate Poreher’s dwelling house
aud a number of barns and farm
houses were burned. The fires are
generally under control, having
burned out their fury. Large bodigs
of turpentine woods have been des¬
troyed. The loss will necessarily be
heavy.

The innumerable advantages of
Augusta are daily increasing, and
the completion of the Augusta, Gib¬
son and Sandersville railroad, which
occurreg yesterday) will give an ad¬
ditional impetus to the boom which
our city is now enjoying. Sanders¬
ville, as well as the other points along
the line of the Baby Road, will have
an opportunity to come to their nat¬
ural market for their merchandise.
The regular schedule on the road
iS announced to begin Sunday, by
which i ou can leave Augusta at
*<J* i'riCihe morning and arrive at
Swdersville at 1:12; leave Sanders¬
ville at 4:05 a. in. and arrive in
Augusta at 8:58. In the afternoon
a ttrain leaves Augusta at 4:00 and
relishes Sandersville at 8:58; leaves
Sandersville at 2:18 p. m. and ar¬
rives in Augusta at 8:10. This sche¬
dule will be of great convenience to
our merchants as well as to our San¬
dersville friends, They can now
come to Augusta, and spend the day
in business transactions and return
homo in the afternoon.
Hr. Felton proposes to wage a vig¬
orous war on Atlanta’s wine rooms.
The fight was started Wednesday in
thT Finance Committee of the House
F<j>r Committee several lias days been past engaged the Finance in the
preparation of the general tax bill,
and Wednesday, as it was about to
(-li.se it:; work, Dr. Felton proposed
an [.‘item fixing a $10,000 license on
all wine rooms. After a spirited dis¬
cussion it was voted down and the
bill will be reported to the House
without any reference to the matter,
except a provision for such taxation
as is now paid. Dr. Felton gave no'
lice that he would propose the amen¬
dment in the House and urge its
adoption. It is said that the Fulton
delegation will be unanimous in op
"|W».sit ion to the measure, as both Pro¬
hibitionists and anti-Prohibitionists
of the city have expressed a willing¬
ness to abide by the local option law
as adopted last November, and give
paohibiticn. as then adopted, a fail

On the memorable niglit of Aug.
31, the earthquake shook the Lang¬
ley dam to pieces, turned loose the
deluge of water contained in the
mill pond, and resulted in the ruin
of considerable property and the
wrecking of a railroad train, Mondai
with the exception of the dire de¬
struction of cars and crops, the same
scene was enacted. Ruling the after¬
noon the dam that was being con¬
structed by Contractor Twiggs, was
burst asunder.by the waters of Lang¬
ley pond, and in a few .moments the
work? of two months was swept away
The track of the Charlotte, Colum¬
bia and Augusta railroad was torn
loose by the flood, and all trains on
this, road are delayed. It is not pos¬
itively known when the line will be
reopened. At last accounts the offi¬
cials of the South Carolina railroad
were afraid to risk trains on ♦hen
trestle near Langley. It is not posi.
lively known whether the tract was
injured or not.
The President thinks that a repuc
should be made in the tax upon
the imported necessaries of life, so
as to lesscntliecobt of living in every
family of the land, and release to the
people in every humble home a larg¬
er measure of the rewards of frugal
industry, lie insists that the ques¬
tion of reduction does not involve
any theory held by either the free
trade or protection economists. It is
further claimed that the President’s
message will insist upon a fulfillment
of the pledge made in the tariff plank
of the national platform.

A current advertisement in a Seat¬
tle paper reads as follows: “Where¬
as, I have left my wife and her board
whereas I have become attached to
another and more attractive woman
I hereby give warning to the public
that I will in future pay my own
without any assistance from
whatever.”
One Way to “G-et Along,”
In the J/aine woods half a
miles away from any other
tion, there is a cluster of three rat
er fertile farms. A
man, who for some reason wished
go to farming, was negotiating
the purchase of one of these
which lie ail in a row; and lie
(he people who were trying to
to him what sort of
would have next door.
‘‘If I’m to live out there.”
“it’s important to me to know^B
sort of folks I’m going to liven*
“Well,” said the other,
ask old Uncle'Jerry Jonen who oH
on the third farm, ovp*'beyond them
howjhejjots along;. He’s a man that
never tells anything but the truth.”
The >Aending purchaser went ov¬
er to L nele Jerry, and asked him
how he “got along with his next
door neighbor.”
“First rate,” said he.
“Ever have any trouble with
them?”
“Not any.”
1 his was enough, and the down
country man bought the farm.
He began to be friendly with his
next neighbors, but found them ve
ry quarrelsome. Their boys got into
trouble with his; they complained
about bis line fence, and set their
dog on his hens. Whenever he. went
near them they began to abuse him.
Finally he went to Uncle Jerry,
and said:
“See here, Mr. Jones, didn’t you
tell me that you got along well will:
these folks here between 11 s?”
“Wal, 1 do.”
“How do you manage it?”
“W al, I hain’t b’en nigh ’em foi
nine years!”

The increase in receipts from stamps
is $4,000 a mouth. At 90 cents a gal¬
lon, this shows that there is an ex¬
cess of about 5,000 gallons of whis¬
ky a month, or 00,000 gallons’a year
made in Georgia this yea. over what
was made two years ago. The out¬
put is still increasing.”
‘•Have! you any explanation of
this?”
“Before there was prohibition in
115 counties out of the 138, there
were wholesale and retail dealers in
every neigborhood from whom li
quor could be bought m any desired
quantity. Now, it is impossible to
lo this. The distilleries can sell in
ten gallon package, I suppose the
increase may be thus accounted for
Something must ha done wiih tqo
00.000 gallon of increased whisky
output this year.”
•‘Is not much of it sold to other
states?”
e ry little, I think. Georgia
whisky has nospecial reputation and
the other states have their own dis¬
tilleries. There are three counties
in Georgia in which the manufacture
of whisky, as well as the sale, is pro¬
hibited. These are Fulton, DeKalb,
and [Henry.”
