Ile was captured and is now waiting for a requisition from lite Governor of Georgia. The man's name was Rubin Curler. We under stand bc luis confessed thc crime.

Why tho Ends do not Meet. There are thousands ol' families in ?this country mid abroad w!u> have j always diilicully in making ends i tweet. Many of them tire diligent j workers and earn well, but their pur pose of cottage and comfort are frus trated, and their purses empty. They arc constantly falling short ol' their desired goal. They arc of that j large class who arc ever making mort gages upon their earnings before they Minc received. They always Halter j themselves that great successes are Jiu store Cor them next year ; so they go on spending foolishly in thc monn-i time. Thc wants ol* these people are never satisfied. Like spoiled chil-| ilrcn. that which hangs so gracefully j upon tin* shoulders of rich neighbors ; they must have. Everything that con-1 tributes to manhood und independ ence is saeri?ed in order tb get it. Thal was not thc way Benjamin Franklin mounted up to high cnn 1 nonce in financial and intellectual i strength. He earned before he spent and always expended with thought ful judi?incut.

In the mutter of domestic expendi tures we have lost, the common sense . d' ..ur forefathers, and have conse quently missed ihe contentment which distinguished I beni.
