years of age. I urn now an old matt j
but very well preserved, as you can j
see. For the last year or two I have

but apart from that uiy health has
always been good. Indeed, I can sa\

isfied thar, in all my liIf, I was newr
confined to my bed .-o much a* tun
davs by sickness. I begin, however,
to feel the effects of a?e and know ihai
the end is not far di.-tant.
"My father was a merchant, and
mv bo\hood days were spent tor the
most part behind the counter. At
the age of eighteen 1 was sent to
Randolph Macon College, in Virginia.
Atter spending a year aud a half in
thft Tir*?imraforv denartment I enter
ed college, and after passing through
the regular course, graduated in 1837
"In the year 1833. when about the
age of twenty years, 1 commenced
attending lectures oti chemistry, and
was forcibly struck with the powers
of the galvanic battery, and its connection
with electrical currents# In
thinking over the matter I felt convinced
that electricity could bo prac
ticallv used in conveying intelligence
between distant points on insolated
wires. I announced this belief to my
classmates and to illustrate my idea
drew a diagram around the walls of
my room, exhibiting a wire support

at each end and an independent
dock work on which to receive messages.
UI attempted frequently lo explain
this to my comrade*, but was only
laughed at for my pains. I was regarded
aa a visionary, and my project
as a dream. I contended "that ir
would work and prophesied that iu
the near future a man would be sitting
in his chamber in New York
conversing with his brother in New
Orleans as familiarlv as if tbev were
seated at his own fireside. Yea, more?
that the President of the United
States woald in the same manner converse
with the Einporor of Russia in
an instant of time. This of course
was regarded by all as the extreme of
fanaticism. Only one of my cla>s
mates would listen to me with any
degree of credulity and that was a
young man from North Carolina In
the name of Baxter Cligg, who afterwards
became somewhat prominent as
a Methodist preacher.
"In after years a number of my
schoolmates came out with voluntarv
communications to different newspapers
testifying to what I have above stated.
Prominent among them was J. \V.
Cameron, at one time editor of. a
paper published at Wadesboro, X. C.

no answer. This failure to auswn

siasm, and I thought shur after all
probably my theory was not practical
or iis merits would have been appreciated

science.
UI then-fore dropped the matter and

exclusively to "that purpose.
"Years rolled by and I had almost
forgotten the telegraph matter, when
in the year 1344 I opened the Washington
Globe one morning, and the
first paragraph that attracted my attention
was an account of the formation
of a partnership between Page,
Morse, Amos Kindali & Smith, to
erect an experimental telegraph wire
between Baltimore and Washington

"The moment I saw the combination
the conviction flashed upon my
mind that Page had used my suggestions
to him made eleven \ears before
in the furtherance of ihe Morse project,
and when I learned that at. ihe
time I wrote to Page in 1833, and tor
some years afterwards, he was &n ex
aininer in the patent office, and forbidden
by law to lake out a patent in
his own name, my convictions were
confirmed, indeed, I was so positive
of the fact that I wrote a communication
to the Washington G'obe, publicly
charging Paire with having availed

himself for not answering it on the

"In the meantime Morse, Page &
Co., having received Gi>?aregional
aid, proceeded to erect their"i*n? between
Baitimoz*'" and Washington,
which proved a success and so linked
Morse's name with the project as to
sive him the boom over evervbedv
else.
"Notwithstanding," continued Mr.
Clemnions, "to place my reputation
for veracity in the crucible of public
criticism, and caring very little about
the natter anyway, I remained silent
ever afterwards.

plan for a National t.onservative

have originated in Washington, was
laid before mot ol the leading officers.
Montgomery Blair wa? repiesewed as
the leading spirit at the National Capj
iial.
According {o the views which were
presented for him through his brother,
Gen. Frank Biair, and other*, there
wai a ver\ general dissatisfaction at

coin, it was s-t ill a question whether he
would finally side with tile Radicals or
ftvor a conservative reconstruction.
It was therefore proposed that the
prominent officers of the army should
unite in an effort to influence the soldiers
to favor, so soon as the war ended
and the question of reconstruction
came up, the organization of a National
Conservative party which should ignore
all the Radical N aders named
anil others of their class; which should
also exclude the Northern Copper
heads as a necessary condition to ?-oidiers*
support; which should be made
up of war Democrats and Southern
politicians and officers, and provide
prominent places for nil Northern
officers who would join the movement.
This proposition was receiving much
attention at the various headquarters
about Goldsboro when the news came
<?f ttio tnrivMiftar of A number
of leading officers favored it, and several
were ioncd, upon sounding them,
to be much opposed. It i> believed to
have prompted the liberal >pirit with
which Gei:. Sherman acted when making
his terms with Gen. Johnston.
The excitement at the North attending
the assassination of President Lincoln,
and the interpretation ,;Ut upon the
Sherman terms by Secretary Stanton
made ir impossible to pursue the plan
further at that time.
According to the same authority,
later in the same year Montgomery
Dlair and those working with him in
ilie matter revived his scheme, ami
agents were dispatched to various military
headquarters to unfold ic. The
break of President Johnson with his
party was the result, and nt the Armin-Ann
Convention in Philadelphia in

(.? Pardee in "Dixit.")
Some years ago Kiehard Grant "White
wrote a delightfully interesting book I
on Atnericu4?i>tufe. lie might well j
have divided the subject into two
part>: Yank'-eism* and Southern isms. ;
Absolute correctness in pronunciation, i
or in the formation ot sentences, is a !
most difficult aceumpli.-htnent, and
there he, either .North or South, who :
have reached such a degree <>t perfection
that no exceptions can be taken by j
"carping critics" to their utterances. ]
In the matter of pronunciation, the,
time- are changing, and one can scarce-;
iy ke?*p pac>; wmi the innovations
being introduced bv the leading ortheopists.
The purpose of this paper is, however,
to piesent, in a succinct way, a
few oi the qu;iintne>se8 of pronunciation
and construction held to by the
ru><irii#> u-i a Atnoils' 1
these the tit>t thrt comes to iniml i?
the custom of omitting the last two
loners in such words as * *inor?V'
"tour,"'Store"? which are prouonuoed
"mo," "lo," and "eto." "Wha;o'clock
is it?" von ask the Carolinian,
and ten to one he tells )ou it is "halfpus'
lb'," if that happen to be the hour.
Another common Southernisra is the
use of "like as it," or "like" for the
words "as if." "She looked like she
knew me" is a commou expression, or
"stw; looked like as if she'd die." This
i is ver\ common in Washington, and
i in all the States south of Mason and
I T"*: i:..?
JL7IAUI1 C UUU.
The word "funny" is frequently
used instead of strange, and sometimes
with startling effects. A young
Southern :iirl was visiting us once,
aiid a caller was telliug of the death of
her mother through swallowing a fi?h
bone. "Oh! wasn't it funny?1 exclaimed
our visitor at the close of the
narrative. "i think you mean strange,"
said the caller, as soon as she recoverea
from the astomsnient. Our girl
friend has never used tnc word "tunny"
since!
If you happen to hear anybody say
ilrye cheer" you may kuow it is jn
tended to mean 'Tight here." For
instance: A South Carolinian will say:
"Where was he at last night?" and his
fellow-citizen will say, "Lie staid rye
cheer with me." Djear- pronounced
in one syllable?is not a Rassian word
as might be supposed; it uieaus "do
you hear?" and is usually addressed to
servants in this form: "You, Jim!
Bring in that wood, djear?"
"To get to go" is essentially a Georgia
expression. They sav, "Do, don't
tail to cone to-night," and the reply
is, "I've tried to get to go three weeks,
now, so I reckon I'll be there t'night."
The expression "Do don't" is heard in
Georgia and South Carolina, but rare*
* S\ -f.t * L
ly eisewcere. uiie ui iuu must iauguable
things you ever heard is the peculiar
pronunciation of the word
"about." It. is impossible to express
the South Carolinian's pronunciation,
phonetically. It sounds like abaout?
pronounced very quickly in three syllables*
"Quare," for "queer/' is
anoiher word. The use of "recfeou"
for "presume" is said to have been
derived from the Yankee?, as was the
expression "right smart" for the word
"much." J1T.no?rv'
"In imitation of Eng^L'1 IS
the custom ofls^ r " ^ ^ f yr
"I have the ?el,epalUsie the
where it is quitfe-unueceoI
o.. 4 IvA TTlnorliih iu fho Ylf
"obliged," a* "I'm obliged to do it"'
for "I inu-t do it;""he is obliged to
go," for "be must go.'' Ambiguity of
expression is too prevalent in l>ixie,
and too many people sacrifice sense
for sound.
Low-country people and the residents
of middle S'?uth Carolina say
"get-ardtn" fur "garden,' and "geeyard"
tor "guaru"?with the hard
sound of "g." 60, too, with such
words as "card," "car" and "cart"
into which is introduced the sound of
"&ee," to take the place of the first
consonant, ttiu?: "Jcee-ard," "&ee-?r,"
"kee-art
The use of delightful for delicious,
in such a sentence as: "The ice creatn
is delightful," is very common. "Pretty"
is a word very often mi>used, for
instance: "isn't this a pretty day??
a;id this error is a very general one.
North Carolinians say the scenerv is
'pretty"?meaning picturesque; the
J day is "pretty"?meaning fine; and
! that a person's manners are "pretty"
?meaning well-bred.
! "You all" or, as it is abbreviated
"y'aW," is one ot'the ;n >st ridiculou*
j of all the SouthernUms I can call to
mind. It u*uallv means two or more
persons, but is sometimes used when
only one person is meant. For instance
a caller on irking her departure
savs: "Y'ali must coine to see us."
She ^eans the lady, upon whom she
calling, and her husband may call.
The Yankees have quite as many
ridiculous figures of speech as those I
have mentioned as peculiarly Southern
and it will he reserved for another
paper ro present the oddities ol Yankee
conversation. In the meantime every
true-hearted Southerner who reads
these lines wilJ declare that he never
u>ed any of these Sonthern'.sins, and
will be jnst as honest in his belief 8s
the ('harlestoiiiaii when he vows that
he never says "rfiVa-wav" for "this
way'* and 4*e???-a-way" for "that way."
The Destruction of Birds.
The American Ornithologist Union,

This committee is instructed
to gather bmlr^Lusrhtering' statistics,

leagues amoncr women and to prevent
the "pseudo-scientific" collection of
birds and birds' eggs. This committee

AN APPEAL T!) COTTON PLAN' lERS.
; Some Action Necessary for Protection
Against Northern Speculators.
, The Inter-State Agricultural Con
ifhieh vras ill ioli laSi"
| week in Jack*on, Tenn., urge the
{ necessity of a unity of action oil the
i part of the fanneis against Northern
j speculators. The following resoluj
tions looking toward that end were
I ad ?p;ed bv tl:e Convention, and asked
! to be .given publicity by the press of
the country *
The manipulation by speculators of
the cotton crop of 1885-86, which so
} depressed prices that they havf fallen
| below tne actual cost of production,
j forces upon the planters of the South
| the necessity 01 rtueviug iucm>ej*ca,
I as far us 2:1 their power lies, from the
I influence of so ruinous a system as
| that which now controls the chief
| exportable product of the country,
j and with this end in view the rcpiej
sentauves of the agricultural interests
i of Tennessee, in convention assembled,
j call upon our brother planters of all
i the Southern States to protect themselves
by united action. Emboldened !
by pa.?t successes, the speculator has j
fivod thf? standard urice for the cotton i
crop of 1886-87. This, he has done
before ihe seed has been put in the
ground, or even the ploaghs have been
started. Cotton futures for the months
of October, November ano December,
188G, and January, 1887, are to-day
qnot?*d in New York at lrom 8.70 to
8.75, acenrdi:iif to months. This means
nor exceeding 85 cents for middling
cotton in .New York, or 8J cents at the
principal shipping ports of the South,
including such ciiies as New Orleans,
(Jharle>ton, Savannah, Ausiu-aa, Moi
M
I U11L*, lXUlVC>LUil till'l iUbui|/iu?.
j dling cotton at these cities selling for
j 8J cents n^ans not more than 7$ cents
to the plainer, who must pay treighl,
insurance and regular commission
i-harges, whh-h generally average from
3 to 1 copper pound. Now>iiv-~?farwJ
of these co.uditjojis,--so-WMfious to oar
interest we appeal to the intelligent
cotton-grower, and ask him can he
pay the expense of fanning and make
even a bare living by selling cotton at
~ih. cents per pound"? The next question
following upon this is: What is
j tin* remedy? We answer: uiversii
d'.-d crops; plant cue-third iess cotton
and more grain and grasses, raise hogs
and hominy, let cotton be the surplus
crop, instead of producing six and a!
halt' million bales make only four and
a half million bales. By this means
we may realize a large price for uur
labor, and at the same time live inde
I penitently of speculating sharks wno
I profit by your joshes. In addition to
ihi", the Legislatures of cacli of the
Southern States should be petitioned
to make dealings for fniure delivery,
uniess cotton i> actually on hand to
>ell and is actually defivered lo the
contracting purchaser, a felony punishable
b\ line anil imprisonment, not
les< than one thousand dollars and two
years in the penitentiary. The time if
no w propitious for united action, and
we anneal to the orc-s of the S >uth to
aid u- in our efforts by jriving every
publicity to this pro'est, an appeal
which we feel cannot but result beneficially
if prompt in action and lived
up to honestly.

OF FACTS FOR THE PUBLIC

Atlanta, Ga., Januery 12,1885.
! Einfirfiiii? from n. severe anrl Iop.i?sne!I
of typhoid fever, I discovered that the
j fever had settled in my right leg; which
caused it to swell to an enormous sii.e,
remaining so quite three years, resisting
all treatment. A small ulcer finally made
its appearance a little above the ankle
which refused to heal to any and all externa!
application and the use of the most |
noted bl od poison remedies.
The ulcer continued to enlarge, frequently
discharging, perhaps, as much as
a cupful of pus or matter per day The
size of the ulcer was about two inches in
diameter, extending to a depth near the
bone. At one time it appeared that the
flesh in all contiguous parts, would surely
become a running sore, <ts its peculiarly
flabby, spotted and unhealthy condition
clearfy indicated, and it was intimated i
that i might lose my ieg. My condition I
becoming so critical, and the uieer enlarging
so rapidly, we sent 1'or l>r. J. 1\ Droiugoole,
who made a thnroug:: examination,
and said that the flesh on my leg for six
inches around the sore would s<Kin slough
off if not remedied; that I inibt have my
lea bandaged daily and commence the use
oi li. IS. 1J.
I at'te-l according to his instructions, and
! alt'-r usuing the second bottle, the ulcer
I looked fresh and healthy and commenced
healing. I continued the use of B. B. B,
! and to the greatest astonishment and satisfaction
of myself and friends, the ulcer
continued to heal rapidly and is now entirely
well, and I am attending to my business'
at W. II. Brotherton's .store. I do
