What tiik W (J. T. I*. Aims to do.?
The aim of this society is to convince people
that they eao be free, ami as we eon*
aider tbo power of the press boundless, we
have devoted much time to bo b daily and
weekly papers secular and religious.
Wo believe this subject to be of paramount
importance. If the qucstiou of the
near futro is to be temperance or iutcui
pe ranee, then let tho daily papers discuss it
us they would r.ny other topic of vital i in ports
nee. Our aim is to couiinccthe public
that it is of vital importance.
We do not mean merely reforming drunkards;
as is often supposed, but, we do mean
reforming those who are so constituted that
they feel fjuite safe if their owe families
are temperate. We endeavor to impress
upon all, that as patriots and Christians we
urn t arouse to the evils about us, if from
no higher mot ive than that of sell presetva
lion. A prominent lawyer said to me !
recently, 'One reason so many cases are i
deci cd in favor of the il<pi ?r sellers is that
whenever a case on their side is to be
brought up, the court room is thronged
with their friends aud the very support they
are rcceivim? un nverv h-nul intln<?ii/?.?
O j - |
who arc to givj their decision. The public
support for or against the cause lias always
been felt, hence we are aiming to make
temperance people more pronounced, more
fearless, so that a man taking his stand on
the temperance question may know that he
will be supported at least hv the presence
of the friends of the cause.
We are aiumg m oro aud mire to form !
public opinion. That we have also been j
successful hero is apparent in many quar- i
lers. A iviso general never reveals his i
strong points until the battle is over, and if
the onlookers, seeing only his .veal; points,
begin to censure him he still works on, 1
carrying out his plan, which is known only |
when the victorious banner fl uts from i
many a citadel. There are points in our work i
which will be known ouly by the results.?
There is earnest prayer and earnest work. ,
The time for aggressive action 0:1 the j
part of those in public life has arrived.? j
The day for hall way measures, if it ever ;
existed, is a thing of the past; there is a
power that will be felt more and more in i
the years to couio. Tiio quiet unseen pow- |
or bellied the throne has ever boon the I
most potent, therefore if the \V. C, T. U. I
does not come to the front on public oeea- t
sions, none the less is if sowing beside all '
Waters.
Wo arc aiming to make people more in* i
tciligeut regarding this matter. It lias I
been said there is no subject upon which
so much has been said, and so little infor* j
illation given, as upon the subject of tern- j
pcranee. Addresses arc made and the an- j
diences are convnlscdlvith laughter or moved j
to tears, and go away thinking something J
ought to be done in this matter, but they I
are not told what to do, and the matter is j
soou forgotten. They are told that liquor '
destroys mind and body and soul, but as |
that was a self-evident trull: of which they |
had d; ily illustrations, they were not in the |
least interested in that. Now wo aim to !
show how il destroys mind, body and son!, !
how liquor cats uji the brain, stomach ami
?(lod only can tell how it acts upon the
soul.
t
We arc resolved that the next generation
shall know more regarding this evil, its
organ, the effectsol'diiTeivnt kinds of 1 i.j?i rs '
that they shall be st> -..i ll informed that
when they reach uiauhnod they will lie able '
and willing to assert themselves, and not-'
. . . ;
stand with closed lips, through ignorance j
or lor fear of giving offense to sot ic one who
has a vote. It is said that a law of I't tiia- t
goras promuriced every free man infamous,
who, in questions of public interest, did not
take sides. Let public <q '.nou bee >nio such
t !int no man can hereafter b : neutral oil
this subject ; lie must array himself on the
hiilo of temperance or iutomporanee. If,
this generation can not tell they staml '
we intern! to so instruct the next that they
will know.
Ours is a work of prevention. Many
time-honored workers in this eau> r have
found tli it the energy spent in re! >runti >;i
will tell infinitely more in saving the young, j
Dr. Ouyler recently said, "The p st of my ;
life has h"( n largely spent in the w >. k of
reformation ; (1ml helping tn \ the Inture
shall he spent in the work I' prevention."

Society Hill, May 1'J.? Your regular c<>r
respondent being absent from the State and
just returning GiiJs full i..tolligtMi.,e oi the
i recent tnu.der liere has uut bccu gi<eu to j
I the p iblio; in fact, so tame an account is
i given it looks as if suppression of facts was
purposely made. After a very thorough investigation
it appears Dennis Scott, a colored
itinerant musician and b irher, occu*
pied a shop attached to or near by the drinking
saloon of \\rilsou & Cannon, agents ?
?Scott used this shop as a barber shop and
to sleep iu, aud was sleeping there on
Thursday night, May 3. About 11 o'clock
| that night cries of "'Murder," and then
i heavy blows, were heard by people who live
! near ihe shop, and afterwards by other per1
s .ns who live farther off on the street leadI
ing (o the Pee-Dec llivcr. Scott caliou
loudly fur help, and said Aaron Kvans was
killing him. (This dil not come out at
j the iti(|Uest, but seeuis ncvortbeless to be
true.) Tracks of two persons wearing
shoes were found leading across the fields
towards the creek where Scott's body was
found. Scott bad 110 shoes on ; his shoes
were found in his shop. All this, together
with the opinion ol the surgeon who made
the post mortem examination, leaves no
doubt but thoro was a most terrible murder
committed right in our midst and the body
carried a mile ulF and thrown into a creek
leading into the Dec Deo Diver. Some of
tiie persons who heard the crise informed
tin officers, or the intcudaut rather, next
day, but 110 search was made and 110 effort,
made to ascertain the cause of the alarm,
and it was ten days after tlsc body was
accidentally found. Where were the police
the night this horrid murder was being
c nr. mi tied ? Answer: 'Out of town."
Xot a watchman or police officer within a
mile, atul this, too. after a warning given
by your correspondent only a few days before,
when reporting the stabbing affray at
the saute .saloon. And why such a tame
account of "J ?" I will let on the light.
This town of forty-five voters is run entirely
in the liquor interest, and it is the policy
to tauic down and suppress .!! : formation
likely to call special attcutiuu to the liquor
traffic and its effects on the peace and good
order of the place.
The "town" is lauded highly for its
peacefulncss and it^ prosperity. It has
neither the one or the other. Tights are
frequent, and the most horrid disorder prevails
ry Saturday. Three terrible fights
oceuried between two white men at one
saloon 1 st Saturday?they had three distinct
affrays. Xo arrests Wore made, and
on M onday following a nominal Gue of ?2 I
was placed on each man.
The iutcnduut is proprietor of one saloon
and two wardens run the other. One other
warden is au ex liquor dealer, and the only
disinterested member of the board is on it
hia nn-n wisli -mil lii-eQ In 11; r?
outskirts of the town end Jo^s not have so
much contact with the disorder often prevailing.
The death of Scott is traced direct
to v.hit kcy, and follows closely on the stabbing
oftVay reported a few weeks ago, and
ii a sequel to that affair.
Jay Got ld to IIetiuk.?Mr. Jay Gould
has declared to his near friends bis intention
to retire from his active business life on
the completion of his projected tour around
the world. His son, Mr. George J. Gould,
a young man cf twenty th 02, is to take hi*
p. ice as a speculator, and Mr Gould himself
will lead a private life. Mr. Gould's
fortune is carefully estimated in round numbers
to be ?100.01)0,000, of which $20,000,000
is in the stock of the Western Union
Telegraph Company and 20,000,000 in the
stock of the Missouri I'aeific llailroad Company.
In real estate lie has never put much
money, considering the si/; of his fortune,

Raising IIaic.? It was one of the bylaws
(if (ho Heartache's Heavenly hair Iluiser
that it bo used liberally before retiring, rubb
ing it in to the scalp. Just bofofc he went to
bed that night, the man bolted the back
door, put the eat i.i thewood-shed, came in
whistling the "Fatiuitzn" waltz, daiiecd up
to the chick shelf, and, pouriugout what ho
supposed to be his hair fertilizer, he mop
pod it all over uis scalp, aud stirred it well
in around jhc roots of the little, hedge of
hair at the back of his neck. V
The glue bottle, by an earthly d/mcideneo,
was nearly the sauio shape mid size as the
hair sap bottle, lie went to bed.
"George," said his wife, turning her face
to the wall, "that stuff you're putting on
your hair smells like a pan cf soap grca.-c "
"Perhaps I had better go up stairs and
sleep." snarled George. ''You're mighty
sensitive ! You wcyv'tfn't expect that a
man can put stuff on his head th.it will .
make his hair grow, and have it smell like
essence of wiutergrecu, would you ?"
They went to sleep mad as Turks.
This particular, bald headed uiau, like a
good uiauy other bald-headed men, had to
get up and build the lires. When.he arose
next morning the sun peeped iu at the
window, and saw the pillow cling to the
back of his head like a great white/cbignon .
At Grst he did not realize his conditiou )
he thought it must have caught on a pin
or shirt button. It looked ridiculous, and
be would throw it back on the bed before
his wife saw it, so he caught it quickly by
one end and "yanked,"
"Oh ! Oh !" lie screamed, "what's been
going on hero ? Thunder an' lightnin'! *'
and he began to claw at his scalp like a
lunatic. His wife sprang up from the
couch and began to sob hysterically.
"Oh, don't George ! What is it ?
W I....V .1
* iiat o LUC Hi:UlUl .
George was dancing about tin room, the
pillow now daugling by a few hairs, his
scalp covered with something that looked
like sheet copper, while the air was redolent
of warlike explosives, as if a dictionary had
exploded. With a woman's instinct the
poor wife took in the situ tint at a glance,
and exclaimed :
' It is glue !"
The bald-headed man sat down in a chair
and looked at her a moment in eontemptu.
ous silence, and then uttered the ouo expressive
word : ' Glue
!
Now began a series ot processes and
experiments unheard of in the anrt tl.s of
chemistry.
"Jane, you must souk it off with warui
water. I 've got to go to Utica to-day."
'T can't, George," she replied in a guilty
tone, 4 it's waterproof."
"Yes, I might have known it ; and I sup
nose it's tiro nroof too. ain't it ?'
I I? -> ?1 J
lie scratched over the smooth platiug
with his finger nails.
"It's hard as irou," he said.
"Yes?ho said it was good glue!'' repeated
she, innocently. "Can't y >u skin it
<>fl with f^ur razor, George ?"
"Don't trifle with me, Jane. Got me
tlial coarse file in the woodshed."
It may be imagined what followed, and
now as the bald headed man sits in the offiee
he never removes his hat,f>r his entire
skull is a howling waste of blistered desert,
relieved here at.d there by oases of blaek
court plaster.

SiiBPllEliD Uous.?Our readers have
doubtless since childhood heard of the
Scotch shepherd dogs aud their wonderful
sagacity, (almost nmouuiing to reason) but
iew ol them, probably, are aware that these
dogs have been introduced and art now
oeing useu in their luvorite work of kocpiug
sheep within a hundred miles of this place.
Mr. Walter T. McArthur, of Montgomery
county, who is probably one of the largest
sheep owners in Georgia, has for several years
had two of theso dogs, which, during thjt
period, have served him well and faithfully
iu the care of his flocks. They are so very
iutolligent that at any time they can bo
trusted to cither watch their charge or to
drive them to or from pasture, uo matter
what may be the distance or nature of the
way, a command from their master bi ing
all that is necessary to sscurc prompt obo*
dieucc. The sheep composing Mr. McArtliur's
fl >e!;s were purchased from several
different persons, and each particular lot
naturally remain together and rather separated
fruui the others, each of these bunches
being designated by the name of the party
from whom they wore purchased. Those
dogs can, at any time, be sent far into the
woods for a specified bunch, it only being
necessary to give its name, thus : <;Tho
McClcud sh?ep," or "the Nash sheep,"
and a failure on their part to bring the
missing, is reckoned among the phenomenal
occurrences. As a matter of course, these
dogs arc of immense service to their owner,
and the gentleman who gave us these facts
says he doesn't believe that 61,000 each
would buy them. So strong is the instinct
in these dogs to watch and keep together
all animals of a kind, that, throe puppies of
the above mentioned dogs find their chief
enjoyment in driving all the poultry of the
yard into some clear space an 1 keening
them for hours, regwdloss of the tact that
not one particle of food cm there he obtained
by the imprisoned fowls. On this
account it is necessary to keep these enterprising
pups shut up.
These facts were given us by a gentleman
of this city of undoubted veracity, who
affirms that ha has often seen these intelligent
brutes go though the performance
above alluded to.?Jirun&wick (ffit ,) .1 p?

of the graves may havo disposed her

it amusing to play jokes on women in this

in disguise who leaps out suddenly in the
