Is THE K.\D AiTKOACIilM; ;
8oine Thought* .^u_*^es;ed l<> this Solemn In.
<ju;ry.
iu an euuwiui, uccks .vince. out;
sentence reads thus: "Our ixjlicf is that
our world's history is near the cad.'* Tn>;
Daily (Columbia) Kkcoru quotes that
sentence, and seems to think that a great
many good people may be unreasonably
disturbed by such declaration, and that
they "would like to know w hat reasons we
have for entertaining such a belief." To |
this the editor of T-n: Recoup adds his j
own wish that we "would give the public j
the benefit of whatever information we;
may have on the subject.''
Y?*e do not profess to have more informa- j
tion than others have or might obtain from
the Scriptures and the signs of the time^ ;
as predicted in the Scriptures The advent
of Christ will end the probation of
the world. "We fix no hour, no day, nor
year. Only the study of God's w<rd and
the drifting signs of* the times lead us to
the belief that the world is aoproaching an I
unparalleled, crisis. Whether that crisis
will be the end of the world or something
else time will show.
Some persons teach that certain things
are yet to take place before the cvming of
Christ, which tilings we are persuaded have
already taken place.
For instance: '"Ask of me, and I shall
give thee the heathen for thine inheritance
and the uttermost parts of the earth for
thy possession."' Ps. ii. 8. This was cer-j
tainly fulfilled in the coronation of the
Son, when all power was given unto him
in heaven and in earth. In many pin ts of
the earth, not excluding parts of "Christendom,"
there rre millions of people who
"will not have this man to rule.over them."
Such are ignorantly or knowingly in rebellion
against the King of kings.
Many will ask: "is not the gospel to be
preached in all the world before the end
comes?" Has not this been done already?
At the time of the Pentecost "there were
dwelling at Jerusalem devout men out or
every cation under heaven, v.ho saw and
beard and understood the marvelous manifestations
of that occasion. Representatively
every nation then and there heard in
their own language ali that the tongues of j
fire spake.
But there is Scripture more direet: "The
hope "which is laid up for you in heaven,
whereof ye heard before in the word of
the truth of the gospel: which is comeunto
you, as it is in. till the <cvrld.'' Col. i.
5, G. "Be not move* away from the hope
of the gospel, which ye have heard, and
which icax preached to eery creature which
if under hcaccu." V. 20. 'Olave they not j
heard? Yes, verily thiir sound went into
nil the earth, and their words unto the end*
of the world." Rozn. x. IS.
If we have correctly explained and applied
the Scriptures quoted?the giving of
the uttermost psrts of the earth to the Son,
and the preaching cf the gospel in all the
world?then those events to which they
refer are net between the present genera
tion and the end of the world.?Christian

Information About ike Pecan Tree.
Columbia, S. C., January 17,1SST.
Edixok of Kecokd: In reply to Mr. B.
?. H. and many ethers whose inquiries is
regard to the pecan tree you have referred
to me to answer, I think the following will
about cover the ground in a general way:
Ilo'.r propagated? By planting the nut? j
the ordinary pecan nut of commerce?and
by budding or grafting. They grow readily
from the nut, but, owing to the depredations
of the wood rat, it is almost impossible
to get a stand: besides, -the trees would
be as likely as not to yield thick shelled
nuts of poor qualit}' and of little or no
value. Nursery trees that have been selected
from tne best, largest and earliest
bearing varieties can be transplanted about
as successfully as an}- fruit tree of the same I
asre. and can be procured at a very mod-!
erate figure.
Kind of mi? The tree is of the same ;
genus as the hickory unci will flourish any- j
where the hickory grows. They will thrive j
in almost any soil with little attention, but j
much better results will be obtained when j
planted in rich soil and well cultivated and !
msnured. Rich bottoms, if not too wet, |
i?re excellent; but several trees noted for
their large size and immense crops of fine j
nuts are growing in elevated places and ;
have received very little care.
V*~iil they grow in this climate ? Mr. TV*
B. Jones, in an article to the American j
Agriculturist, says: "We recommend the '
culture of this tree very highly, as beinsr j
likely to prove profitable from the Potomac !
and Ohio rivers southward." The few that |
haye been cultivated in this State and Georgia
ere far superior to all others, and are
easily sold at "fancy prices "
If" it profitable ' Mr. A. C. Daniel, of
r>?n-,"! ii.-, c-.t-c hit > rem- n? tr.-fs
at the back of Iris garden, from the largest
of which he gathered "eleven bushels and
one peck of nuts," which he "sold in
Athens for ?45"?just $43 ^more than the
average farmer makes cn an acre of cotton
at present prices.
2>Ir. T. V. ilunson, of Dennison, Texas,
says he values " well-grown trees of good
ticds, 10 years old, at -$23. A:: acre (4S)
of such trees would be worth ?1,200."
There are fine specimens of the tree
grcwing in almost all the son thorn States,
from Virginia to Texas, which frequently
betr fifteen bushels of fine nuis per tree,
ana as they sell readily at from .s:> to $3 a
bushel, the net income from a single tree is
often more than from several acres of ordinary
farm products. If the farmers cnly
understood its merits, in a few years pecan j
groves would be as popular and profitable j
in ?,his State as oran ire groves now are in i
Florida.

Pensions for Mexican Veteran*.
A special to the Ifeics and Courier says:
The House to-day parsed the Mexican pea
sion bill as it came from the Senate by an
overwhelming majority. There seems to
be no doubt that the President will approve i
the bill. It provides that a pension of *S a
mouth shall be paid to all surviving officers
and enlisted men, including marines,
militia and volunteers of the military and
naval services of the United States" who
being duly enlisted, actually served 09 days
with the army or navy of the United States
in Mexico or on the coasts or frontier thereof
or en route thereto in the war with that
nation, or who were actually engaged in
battle in said war and were honorably discharged,
and to such other officers and soldiers
and sailors as may have i.-een personally
n.'-iied in any resolution of Congress
for any specific service in said war, and the
surviving widows of such officers and enlisted
men: Provided, that such widows
have not remarried: Provided, that every
such officer, enlisted man or widow, who
is cr may become 32 years of age, or who
is or may become subject to any disability
or dependency equivalent to some cause
prescribed or"recognized by the pension
laws of the United States us sufficient reason
for tne allowance of a pension, shall be
entitled to the benefits of this Act: but it
shall not be held to include any person not
within the rule of age or dependency herein
denned, or who incurred such disability
while in any manner voluntarily engagec
in or aiding or abetting the late rebellion
against the authority of" the United States. '

High License T'jr Atlanta.
It is r->?w said th;:t the real leaders on
_ l>olh sides Of the temperance question in
Atlanta have ninni compromised their differences
and in a time ti:e system of
high license will take lii" place of so-called
prohibition :r. that city. Long ago and j
before the unfortunate disser-a^cs arose in
Atlanta, the Evening Xtr* proposed and
insisted that high license was the be-', remedy
and that sooner or later :iil sides would
agree with us. The leading prohibition
paper, The Evening Capitol, declares pro- J
hibition a dead failure, and that as much
or more liquor is consumed there now us

How so Live a Fall Century.
Prof. Humphry, of Cambridge, has prepared
a series of tables which contain some :
interesting information about centenarians. ;
Of G2 persons whom he mentions, at least j
11?two males and nine females?actually
attained the age of 100. Others attained:
very nearly to the 100years. Only one of the j
persons reached 108, while one died at the ]
alleged age of 10G. Of the 52 persons, 30 j
were women and 10 men. Prof. Humphry !
tells us that the comparative immunity of j
women from the exposures and risks to :
which men are subjected, and the greater
temperance in eating and drinking exhibited
by women are ihe chief points in determining
their higher chances of longevity. Out
pi the 30 women 20 had been married, and |
had Iprne large families. Of the 20
vho had been wives eight had married be
tore they were 20, $nd 1?, and two at 17.
Twelve of iiie 03 centenarians were a?S:;
covered to have been the eldest children of I
their parents. This fact, adds Dr. Humph- j
ry, cloi's not agree with popular notions i
that .he first children inherit a feebleness 1
of consljlytion, nor with the opinion of j
racing stibles, which is dccidedly against'
the idea that "firstlings" are to be depended j
on fur good performances on the course, i
The centenarians generally regarded were :
of spare' build. Gout and rheumatism
wer3, as a rule, absent. "It seems,''* says
Professor Humphry, "that the frame which
is destined to great age needs no such prophylactics,
and engenders none of tbe
present humors for which the finger joints
(as in may find a vent."
Of the o-i aged people, 24 only had no
teeth, the average number of teeth remaining
being four or five. Long hours of sleep
were soluble among these old people, the
period of repose aycraging nine hours;
whiie out of door exercise in plenty and
early rising are to be noted among the
factors of a prolonged life. One of the
centenarians "drank to excess on festive
occasions;'' another was a "free beer drinker"
and "drank like a fish during his whole
life.*' Twelve had been total abstainers
'twrffl;' qr><] filmrisf. nil were
"srcali caters."

MYSTERY OF KI.YG'S MOtXTAI.Y.
Grrnt Excitement Caused over Mrs. Mauney's
feti'cnfjs Death.
Raleigh, X. C., January 17.?Last
month Mr. W. A. Mauoey, the leading
merchant of King's Mount 11"n a^d a rich
widower, whose first wife died 10 months
ago, was married at G rover, a town just
over the South Carolina line, privately, to
Mis* Conic Hoke. K. Iv. Roberts, notary
public, performing the ceremony. The
marriage' was kept secret. Miss Hoke's
own brother aacf children of the groom did
not know anything of the marriage. A
Miss Emma Coolidge, who has attained an
unenviable reputation in the Courts and in J
society, and who is of no kin to either the j
bride or groom, appears to have been much j
mixed up in the ciandcsiine jnarriage. A j
few days after the marriage the bride and
Miss Coolidge left King's Mountain and
were tlic guests in that city of the rich
bro her-in law of Miss Colidgc. A few
days after arriving in Philadelphia Mr.
Mauuey received a telegram sayins: that his
wife was dangerously ill of pneumonia. |
lie hastened 5>'orth and when he reached [
Philadelphia he found his bride cold in I
death. Last week the daad bride was
brought home and sleeps in the cemetery
at Xfug's .Mountain. Rumors of foul play
in connection with this case are rife. It is
said that the Ifcdy of .Mrs. Mauney will be
exhumed and a postporteia examination
will be had for the purpose of ascertaining
if there was foui play in Philadelphia.
Nothing has so excited the people of the

TIic Largest Farm in the World.
In the extreme southwest corner'of
Louisiana lies the largest protlncinjc farm
in tl:p world. It runs 100 miles liortli and
south and twenty- fire miles east and west,
i and is owned and operated by a syndicate
of northern capitalists. Their general
manager. ?J. 15. Wutkins, gives an interesting
account of this gigantic plantation,
which throws the great Dalryinple farm
of Dakota into the shade completely.
He was cornered by a reporter at the St.
James hotel last- night and asked to give
; the particulars of his gigantic enterprise.
| "The million and a half acres of land in

The commonest sight of early Sunday
morning in the cheaper quarters of an
English city is th? people carrying their
dinners to the bakers to be cooked in their
ovens. When the last batch of bread is
drawn the ovens are tilled with joints and
poultry, which arc delivered, at a moderate
price, piping hot- for the table. Years
ago, in smaller communities, the practice
was observed here, but I never encountered
It In New York until the other
Sunday. It was on the east side, in a
populous tenement district, that I came
on a profession of women, girls and boys
carrying all styles and sizes of baking
dishes into a bakery. The cconomy of
the practice is obvious. It saves the
building and the keeping of u fire and the
| trouble yf housework on what is possibly
! the ho isewife's one holiday of the week.
I The baker told mc that he does a brisk
| triide in dinner cooking In hot weather,
j When^the mercury 1 >c comes dispirited and
I fires become a necessity, the business ex
periences a sensible diminution, but there
is still considerable of it going the year
round.
Tlii* providing of ready cooked meals is
another growing trade. The cooked rr.eat
.shop is as notable a feature of Paris as
the bakery dinner is of England. It has
existed and thriven here for a long while,
principi Uy by the patronage of theFrcncli
and German population. Latterly, however,
it has taken a wider popularity
among the natives. One dealer in cooked
meats now runs several shops in various
parts of the city, and new men in the
; business are constantly springing up.
: Many people vfLylivcin flats rely on these
| shops for the solid portions of their meals,
! only cooking vegetables or fancy dishes
j at home. It does not save any money
j directly, probably, but I fancy it is made
I to serve the purpose of dispensing with a
i servant, and so is a definite gain in the
! long run.?Alfred Trumble in New York

Archer and the Surgeon.
Archer, having been bitten or otherwise
! injured by a horse on one occasion, called
on Sir James Paget. The eminent snr|
geon having bound up his wound, Archer
i requested to know how long it would take
to heal. "Oh," said Sir James, "I think
in three or four weeks yon will be all
right.''
"But shall I be fit for the Derby?" asked
Archer.
"Ye-cs," was the reply. "Oh, yes! I
| think yon may go to the Derby."
"2s"o, but you don't quite understand
me, Sir James," persisted the jockey. "I
mean shal I be fit to ricie?"
"Well, I don't know," was the answer.
"Better drive, better drive!"
Archer, rather t aken aback by this very
innocent and unexpected rejoinder, had
to explain. "I am afraid. Sir James, you
I scarcely realize who I am?"
".No, said tlie surgeon politely, refer
; riug to the patient's visiting card. "I see
| I have the honor of receiving Mr. Archer,
| but"
"Well,5' said Archer, "I suppose I may
say that what you are in your profession,
j Sir James, that-1 am in mine," and proi
ceeded to tell him what that profession
j was.
The famous surgeoi:., on learning the
status of his visitor, was at once greatly
interested and asked him eagerly mauy
questions, among others: What would be
his : jss > apposing lie should be unable to
fulfil the Derby engagement? to which
Archer replied: "About ?2,000." His
average annual income he stated to be
about ?$.000; upon wlueh Sir James is
said to have remarked: "You may well
say that what I am in my profession that
you are in yours. I only wish that my
profession were hall as profitable as
yours."?Pall Mall Gazette.
