Have the courage to cut the most agreeable acquaintance you have, wben'you are convinced he lacks principle; a friend should bear with a friend’s infirmities, but not with his vices. He that does a base thing in zeal for his friend, burns the golden thread that ties their hearts together. The most trifling actions that affect a man’s credit are to be i-e garded. The sound of you r ham¬ mer at five in the morning or nine at night, heard by a credit¬ or, makes him easy six months longer: but it he sees you at a billiard table or hears your voice at a saloon when you should be at work, he sends for his money the next day. Beautiful lives have blossomed in the darkest places, as pure white Sillies on the slimy, stag¬ nant waters. No possession is so productive of real influence as a cultivated intellect. Wealth, birth and official station may and do secure their possessors an ex¬ ternal, superficial courtesy; but they never did commend the i-everence of the heart- It is only to the man of large and no¬ ble soul, to him who blends a cultivated mind with an upright heart, that men yield the tribute of deep and genuine respect. Parents do wrong in keeping their children around home in idleness and sheltered and en¬ ervated by parental indulgence. The eagle does better. It stirs up its nest when the young eag¬ les are able to fly. They are compelled to shift for themselves for the old eagle literally turns them out and at the same time tears all the feathers and down from the nest- ’Tis this rude and rough experience that makes the king of birds, so fearless in his flight and so expert in his pur¬ suit of prey. It is misfortune to be born with a silver spoon in your mouth, Riches often hang like a millstone about the necks of ambitious young people. Bad company is like a nail driven into a post, which after the first or second blow can be drawn out with little difficulty; but being once driven in up to the heal, the pinchers cannot take hold to draw it out, which can only be done by the destruction of the wood. You may be ever so pure, you cannot associate with bad companions without fall¬ ing into bad odor. From impure air we take diseases; fr«m bad company vice and imperfection. With many of ns our parents have lived their alotted time of three score years and ten, but if we still have them in the family circle highly we should appre¬ ciate them. The snow of winter comes and sheds its white bless ings upon the valley and the mountains, but soon the sweet spring comes and smiles it all away. Not so with that upon the brow of tottering age. There is no spring whose warmth can penetrate its eternal frost. It came to stay. Its single flakes fell unnoticed, but now they are drilled there. We shall see it in¬ crease until the summons is heard to come up higher Wel¬ come the snow, for it is the cm : blem of peace and of rest. It is but a temporal crown which shall fall at the gates of paradise, to be replaced by a brighter and bet¬ ter. AFFECTIONS OF HOME. If ever household affections and loves are gracious things, they are graceful in the poor. The ties that bind the wealthy and the proud to home, may be forged on earth, but those which link the poor man to his humble hearth, are of the true metal and bear the stamp of heaven. The man of high decent may love the halls and lands of his inheritance as a part of himself, as trophies of his birth and power; the poor man’s attachment to the tene¬ ment he holds', which strangers have held before, and may tomor¬ row occupy again, has a worthier root, struck lee per into a purer soil. His household gods of flesh and blood, with no alloy of silver, gold or precious stones; he has no property but in the affections of his own heart; and when they endear bare floors and walls, despite of toil and scanty meals that mail has his love of home from God, and his rude hut be¬ comes a solemn place. Our habits are formed under the mouldering power of home. The tender twig is there bent, the spirit shaped, principles im¬ planted, and the whole character is formed until it becomes a hab¬ it. Goodness or evil are there ‘resolved into necessity.” Who does not feel this influence of home upon all his habits of life? The gray-haired father who wails in his second infancy, feels the traces of his childhood home in his desires and home. $100 Reward, $ 100 . The readers of this paper will he pleas¬ ed to learn that there is at least one dreaded disease that science lias been able to cure in all its stages, and that is Catarrh. Hall’s Catarrh Cure is the on¬ ly positive cure now known to (lie med¬ ical fraternity. Catarrh being a consti¬ tutional disease, requires a constitution¬ al treatment. Hall’s Catarrh Cure is taken internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system, thereby destroying the founda¬ tion of the disease, and giving the pa¬ tient strength by building up the consti¬ tution and assisting nature in doing its work.

The Democratic Congress Com¬ mittee is turning its attention to the Fifty Congressional districts which were carried two years ago by the Republicans with ma¬ jorities of 2,000 or less. An ac¬ tive campaign will be carried on in all of these districts. If the party holds the districts which it now controls, and gains fifteen of these doubtful ones, the House will be Democratic by a majori¬ ty of one. The chances seem good for a Democratic House to stand hy Parker and Davis.— Savannah News. May success attend their ef¬ forts.
