Congestion of the brain and lungs is
supposed to have been the cause of

Augusta possesses a distinction of
which she is proud and is inclined to
parade before the public. Congress¬
man Barnes, the largest member of
the House, is a citizen of Augusta,
and Congressman Wheeler, of Ala¬
bama, the smallest, was born there.
It takes both big and little men to
make a city, hut the big should be
in the mojority. Tt is to he hoped
that this is the case in Augusta.

The turpentine distillery of Mr.
C. B. Parker, at Longview, Dodge
county, was burned Saturday moyn
iug, at four o’clock. The distillery
was arranged in first-class order, and
contained two large stills, steam
pump and other conveniences. One
of the stills is entirely ruined and
the other very much damaged.
There was also six barrels turpentine
and twenty one barrels rosin burned.
The loss will reach $2,000 'with no
insurance. It is thought to Lave
been the work of an incendiary.

The Boom That Will Stay.
They raise t wo bushels of corn now
; in the Southern States where they
raised one bushel in 1870. Perhaps
there is no better measure of the
Southern advance in thrift and pros¬
perity than the self sustaining iim
provement indicated by tho corn
crops. Corn is the farmer’s gold

When the Opportunity Comes.
Tke pre-eminence of Webster,
day, Calhoun and other “giants in
those days” overshadowed men who
would otherwise have proved them¬
selves masters. Ability of the first,
class is now dwarfed and cramped
for similar reasons. Capable leaders
will-spring up when given an oppor¬
tunity. How many of the groat gen¬
erals of tho late war were known
outside of limited circles a quarter
of a century ago? Whenever needed
the man and the opportunity ivill
step forward and shake hands.—Lit¬

A FAMILY FEUD ENDED.
DOW I-OVD BEJiAKS DOWN BAEEIEKS
ANI) UNBTES TWO I'AMITIES.
A telegram from Louisville, Ky.,
January 27lh, says: A quiet wedding
in Jeffersonville last night brought
to an end a romantic love story and
family ...... feud of several , , stand- .
a years
ing. Ten years ago John S. Bullit,
of Cleveland, Ohio, removed to a
point near Newmarket, Ivy., and set¬
tled with his family on a farm. Soon
after Iiis arrival there he got into a
dispute with Hunter Wells, a neigh
bor, over a piece of ground. This re
suited in a long lawsuit, and was
finally decided in Bullit’s favor. The
men were not reconciled, however,
and became hitter enemies. For years
the members of the two families
spoke harshly of each other, and no
opportunity was passed to do an in¬
jury to the other family. Several
shooting scrapes occurred with.blood
y, though no fatal results. Mr, Gul¬
lit,'at the time of his removal to
Kentucky, had a daughter, Celia,
aged 7 years. As time passed she
grew into a lovely young girl, and
was sent to the convent of the Notre
Dame, near Cincinnati, to recei vc her
education. Returning home last
Christmas for the holidays more, love¬
ly and perfect in feature, and form
than ever, she met Albert Wells, the
son of Ilun'er Weils, a young mer¬
chant of St. Louis who was also
home on a holiday visit. The two
first met at a dance at a farmer’s
house near Cavalry station, hut
found it both convenient and pleas¬
ant to meet often after this. They
loved one another, and when ihey
parted, after the holidays, it was
with the agreement to correspond.
Six or eight letters were writtf it; hut
wnilo Hells received those fiom
Miss Bullit, the sister superioress at
the convent discreetly kept those di¬
rected to her lovely charge. Finally,
becoming desperate, Wells made the
journey to Cincinnati, and visited
the convent in company with Mr.
W. Hunt, of that [dace, under the
guise of Celia Bullit’s brother. While
the young couple could not act as
free as their hearts dictated,-owing
to the presence of a teacher o f the
school, they succeeded in making an
appointment, at Hunt’s Hotel, VliaA
was afterward kept. Here they
■•greed to marry, and as she would
not consent to be mairied other than
in the presence of a relative they
came to this city and telegraphed
George Bullit, a brother, to meet
them here, lie did so, a;*d finally
the o'd family enmity was talked
down and the three went to Jeffer¬
sonville, where Esqmro Keigwin
married them. They returned and
are stopping at the Arlington Hotel,
where Mr. Hunter Wells and Mr.
John Bullit are expected, they hav¬
ing telegraphed their satisfaction at
the marriage and the hope that nev¬
er again would ill feelings prevail
between the two families.
