Social Circle, is the best eating hogse
on tire Georgia Railroad. Mr. Spenc

tor, is a nice man, and knows how to
keep a good hotel. That is the place
for a hungry man to stop if he wants a
good square meal, of the best the mar
ket affords. Mr. S., is going to a heavy
expense to beautify his lot back of his

New Scientific Discovery. —Dr.
Grusselpuck, Professor at the Swedish
•University of Upsala, is reported to be
able to benumb a snake by artificial
means so as to render it as stiff as mar
ble and, after the expiration of some
time, to restore it to life by sprinkling
it with a stimulating fluid, of which he
alone knows the composition. He is
said to have repeated these experiment
on an unhappy reptile for the last fif
teen years. He thinks the same"pro
cess may be successful in regard to hu
man beings, and the Government is to
give him a condemned criminal, whom
he will put asleep for two years. When
the man is finally waken up, he will be
pardoned. Furthermore the Professor
has been led to|believe that'some of the

to begin action right awnj-. It is only
a small amount when apportioned to ■
each. Let some one iheu.-h neighbor- )
hood take a list immediately and 7r<>
round and ask every man t tibscribe.
Raise all 3-011 can by subscription and
report the same to “Witness office”
and if it is not enough we will help to
the extent of our ability. We will give
Twenty cents on each subscriber at
those places, towards paying for the
mail. So now make a strong effort,
and remember that every five cash
subscribers for tlie “Witness” adds one
dollar to the subscription for the Mail.
In the aggregate you get five hundred
subscribers to the Witness, we will give
one hundred dollars towards suppty
ing your mail.

Drunkenness.
Drunkenness has been known, in
some form, from the earliest history
of man and exists in every known j
eomit rjv It is one‘of the evils, tvhleoj
ma!*-chooses to bring upon himself.;
Authors and temperance lecturers have j
assigned Some sup
pose it to be the Ibyc? of cheerful com
pany, distress of •miud^ian gUfspirits.

Many circumstances may lead to a 1
man’s getting drunk once in his life,
and for which he may be excused’ But
drunkenness, as a habit, is closely al
lied to «.infidelity—yet it is no loss!
strange than true tlvit many men daily],
drink intoxicating beverages, whofel
names are upon the church books oft
God upon earth. What,an x
to the young, jjim an’l'i|jpTS of the
land! J
In common language, We say such at
man is ‘as -drnnlrfcKVbrute.’ This isfi
a strange abuse otjfciguagc, and false]]
as to the brute tri%kiwho in this parV
ticular is, and ever has been man's su-1
perior. I have rtever seen but outran-r
. . . \ K'\
imal intoxicated, and he afterwards!
disdained to touch the article (though f
he was particularly fond of it,) in L
which ho was so badly swindled.
Man alone is capable of transgress
ing every law, natural or divine, by
boldy turning himself to
lick up the dust of '* m |
who becomes a drunkard erects a tem
ple to vice, which superstructure rests
on infidelity. A man a drunk-,|
ard is not nc-ccssarily conSpellcd to g®£
down and wallow in the mire, but a 1
daily dram-drinker is that far a drunk- j
ard. We are commanded to break no
law, but he who worships in the tem
ple of litifceliujs, built by his'own bauds
can keep no law. Bacchus acknow
ledges no worshippers who do not re- j
nounee all other gods at least while in I
his presence. Besides, no man can ]
worship two masters—he will love one
and hate the other—and it is especial
ly true with those that would give
their all for a drink.
This is the most unhallowed ground
upon which man can walk, and the
Deity marks every step through it
with vice in all its most heinous forms
so that this crime is seldom found
alone. Instead of drunkenness being j
a cloak or excuse tor committing a
crime, it is tiie cause, therefore a dou
ble offense. The man who daily drinks
his dram to the extent of feeling its
effects, is not so clear-in judgment
nor so bright in his intellwt as fae
our that touches not “when it gives its
color to the cup.” % *
That form of drinking known as'tak
: ing a “spree” or on a “bender” is said
jiby well-informed medicine men to be
tli'e most dangerous mode of drink
i ing.
But I forbear—it belongs to man's
most sacred calling to point out and
warn of its heinous consequences in
this world, and more especially in that
to come. To punish the offender for
crimes committed whilst under its in
fluence, belongs to the civil law.
It is a prevalent opinion that per
sons once in this habit cannot leave it
off without danger. This is a grave
and mistaken error, and let no man,
surrounded by weeping and most like
ly' needy dependants, weeping over his
folly, console himself with the notion
that however much he may repent
having formed such a habit, that ho ho
longer has tire power to retract, to quit
without injury, lie should, and may
safely quit, or else woe be to the
wretch who, despite every endearing
entreaty and caressing invitation to
the contrary, he continues to sink low
er and lower, his “sprees” become more
frequent until he becomes the torment
of liia family and friends—the indig
nant scorn of the stranger—the cruci
fier of lus own body—his conscience
and every faculty of the mind seared
as with a hot iron. Nor stops the de
vouring foe until he has destroyed*nl!
moral faculties and leaves the filthy
body goaded with resolves. But for
titude lias fled never to return to re
turn.
I saw recently the statistics of
drinking in the United States, and it
claims that 25,000 of tfte brightest and
stoutest men annually fall victims. Its
ranlcs are recruited from the young
men just' branching out upon the
world. Let it not be said I color the
picture too highly'. If you, reader,
1-feel in reading, as I do in writing, y'ou
would agree with me, that were it pos
sible to banish drunkenness from the
world it is worthy martyrdom at the
stake.
If it is not impioffe. then* to speak,
what praise, wliat glory would fojjknv
would mus did
stake to save such a host of sinners?
But thou, Mightiest, such is not thy
righteous providence, thou hast infus
ed light into each one by which lie
shall walk in the light of day', but
stumble in the gloomy' shades of night
and answer at the mighty' day each one
for the deeds done in the dark hours
of conscience.
Let .every one to
choose course, burnish
bright tj}es?s®3Cience—like the brass,
it rustetltand -passetli away. Blit the
stendyxiiractice of^mprance and vir
tue shall this faculty of the

This light shall rfoffbc extinguished.

or appear at the bar.
lie was appointed Judge of the Western '
Circuit by Gov. Johnson, in the year 1357,t0
fill a vacancy occasioned by the resignation
of Judge Jackson. The wisdom of the selec
tion was soon manifested in the vigorous
administration of the duties of his oftiee.
Subsequently, lie was twice elected by the
people to the same position, and was onee
| appointed by' Gov. Brown,’ with the ad
vice and con-entof the senate, lie was on
the bench during the halcyon day's preced
ing the revolution, during Hie stormy' times
of the South’s death-struggle for liberty,
during the first vears of her bitter biuuilm
tion and drstrsW. No more to re
strain the lawless, to promt the helpless
aiul to encourage the patriotic. The people
(if th" oSvc more to Judge
Hutchins' firm and Upright administration
of the laws, in tiiese trying times, than will
| be recognized by this generation.
| When the reconstruction of Georgia was
! supposed to have, been completed, on the
|2lst of July' 1863, Judge Hutch ins retired
, from the position Which he had held for
! sometime, merely to benefit a people, cn
! cleared to him by the associations of nearly
I fifty years. Afflicted with forebodings cf
evil to betide the future of state, and warn
ed by increasing feebleness, to seek repose
; he has held aloof from the politics of the day.
! The distinguishing characteristic of J udge
Hutchins' mind, was sound common sense.
; This was clear, discriminating, profound,
i His memory was singularly retentive and
accurate. On the bench, he was distin
guished for executive ability' and decision.
Ho judge was more prompt to decide, or
more skill ful in giving reasons for his decis
ion, or more tenacious of the decision when
i ' made Indeed, if he had a fault as judge, it
j was impatience of argument after lie was
ready to anoirticelifcfdecision-. To clear the
docket of his courts, lie, worked early and
late. Members of Grand Juries, Sherrills,
1 Clerks and others will remember calling
' upon him at night in liis room, finding him
, too feeble to sit up, but stretched upon a pal
let, deciding intricate eases, or granting or
ders, which did not require juries, to save
the time of the country. He was never
1 known to spare labor ill- the discharge of
professional or official duties.
The highest praise that can lie awarded
. to any man, is to say of him after death,that
! His virtues alone am remcuib erod. This
1 may be spoken of Judge Hutchins. If he
had faults, a gratfhl people, deeply indebted
to him, will never-speak of them, but will
cherish with pride and affection the memo
ry of his many virtues, and of his gi-eafincss
in private life, at the bar and on tne bench.
