TMP UGHTXY. -V Trip lightly over trouble, Trip lightly over wrong; We only make grief doable vJBy dwelling on it long. vVhy clasp Woe's hand so tightly? Why sigh over blossoms dead ? Why cling to forms unsightly ? " ' Why not seek joy instead? .Trip lightly over sorrow, Though all the days be dark, The suu may shine to-morrow And gayly sing the lark. Fair Hope has not departed, Though roses may have fled; ' Then never be down-hearted, But look for joy instead. Trip lightly over sadness, Stand not to rail at doom ; We've pearls to string of gladness On this side of the tomb. Whilst stars are nightly shining, . . And heaven is overhead, Encourage not repining, But look for joy instead. "SWING TO' PAIIDNEK."

Until now wo are not aware that it, has ever appeared in the German papers. It is word for word as follows: Sentence pronounced by Pontius Pilate intendant of the Lower Province of Gal? ilee, that Jeans of Nazareth shall suffer j death by the cross. . In the seventeenth year of the reign of I Emperor Tiberius, and on the twenty fourth dap of the month of March, in the holy city of J erusalem, the pen tili-1 cate of Annas Caiaphus Foctius Pitate, the inteudent of the lower Galilee,* itting to j ndgemenfc i a the presidential seat of Prsetor, .sentenced Jefjus of Nazareth to death on the cross, bei ween robbers, as the numerous and ? notorious testimonies of the people | prove: 1. Jesus k a misleader. 2. He has excited the people to sedi? tion. S. He-is ah enemy to the laws. 4. He calls himself falsely the King of j Isreal. ? He went into the temple followed by j a multitude carrying palms in their | handn. - Orders from the first centurion,, Quir rilns Cornelius to bring him to the place of execution : Forbid all persons, rich or poor, to , prevent the execution of Jesus. The witnesses, Who have signed the ex? ecution of Jesus are:, 1. Daniel Eohani, Pharisee. 2. John Zorobebel. 3i Bapheal BobanL 4. Capet. ?. . I J. . . Jetius to be taken out of Jerusalem through the gates ofTournea. This sentence is engraved on a plate! of brass, in the Hebrew language, and on ito side are the following words: "A similar plate has been sent to each tribe." ?It'.was discovered in the year 1820, in the city of Aquilla, in the kingdom of | Naples, by a search made for the Roman antiquities, and remained their until it was ibund by the commissioner of arts, in the French army of Italy. Up to the time of the-campaign in Southern Italy it was .preserved, in the -sacrisity of the Carthusans, near Naples where it was kept in a box of ebony. Since then the relic has been kept in the chapel, at Caserta. The Carthosans obtained per mission by their petition, that the piece might be kept by them, which was an acknowledgement of the sacrifices which they made for the French army. The French translation-was made literally by the members of arts. Denon had a fac simile of. the* plate engraved,, by Lord Howijll, on the sale of his cabinet for | 5,890 francs. There seems to be no historical doubt as to the authority of this. The reasons I of the sentence correspond exactly with those in the gospel.?Ifanslat?from the Ze?wtg. g ? ? Jay Gould's Hand.?New York, Sep? tember 14.?Mr. Gould came down to the street to-day with blood in his eye. He attended the Tarry town celebration yes ?terdav and kept away from Wall street, and the street had a quiet time of it. But to-day he made his power felt from the opening to the close. ; He began operations on bis own Union Pacific aod hammered it down three cents, while the rest of the street was getting ready for business. The Chicago, Burlington and Quincy folks helped him along by announcing that unless some agreement is reached in negotiations pending with the Wabash folks they will build a parellel road to Denver. It looks as though a bitter fight is on the carpet, and Union Pacific sold down to 85 in consequence. It was 94 a week ago. Chicago, Burlington and Quincy sold down three points to 126. At the same time Mr. Gould attacked Iron Mountain and he kept pondering at it all day long. When time was called at 3;o'clock Iron Mountain had declined tax points from the highest figures of the morning. It was said in explanation that Mr. Gould had been trying to get hold of the Iron Mountain Road for some time, and that failing to get it by nego? tiating he is hammering down the stock to buy enough of it cheap to control. The break of three points in Nashville and Chattanooga is said to be in consequence of the rumor that advance sheet of the company's report show that it is earning li per cent per annum only. There wasja general heavy decline thoughout the en? tire list and mach excitement in the Ex? change. The story is current in the street that Gould has caught Keene long of stocks again and is pinching him. Gould and Keene hate one another as badly as two men can and Gould has more than once said that he will send Keene back.| to San Francisco penniless. ? It is said that Henry Hilton, of New York, has given $50,000 to the Demo? cratic campaign fund. _p. T. Barnum, now seventy-one . years old, has entered into a new circus partnership of which the articles are drawn for ninety-nine years. ? The business at the New York 'post office has increased so much during the last month that forty clerks have heen added to the force. The receipts have increased $1,000 per day since the month of August. ? Gen. Grant, Senator Conkling, Gen. Arthur and a few of the prominent mem bora of the Republicans of the National Central Committee are expected to be at Mentor, the guests of Gen. Garfiold, the 27th of tins month. Spoiling Women's Names* Many, if not a majority, of the names of800 or 900 girls from the public schools examined for admission to the Normal ?college, gives us the impression that they belong to mere household pels rather than to young women who are approach* ing maturity, and who are engaged in se? rious work. These girls apparently prefer the nicknames by which they are known in the family circle and to intimate friends and therefore take pains to adopt them in their signatures. ^ In so doing the public school girls are not exceptional among our young women, for it is quite the fashion nowadays for them to grow so enamored of their nurse? ry appellations that they cling to them as their fixed and proper names. They may even be offended when they are addressed by their correct names, which they imag? ine less pretty than these pet diminutives; and some grave, grown up women will put Hattie or Gussie, Mamie or Sallie on thoir cards as if they were in pinafore still. The fashion is American; but our pa? triotism cannot make us grow fond of it. The nicknames which appear in eo large a share of these public school gir's sig? natures wonld do very well for pets at a dog show." When they are used to ex Jiress the affectionate regard of near riends and relatives, they also may be pretty and appropriate, but they look very silly ' in a formal signature, and surely do not benefit the dignity of wo? manhood. We fine, for instance among these S00 names, scores of Minnies or Mamies and only here aud there a Mary, a much more "euphonious and dignified name. Jane is transformed usually into Jennie, Caroline into Carrie, Ellen into Elia, Elizabeth into Lizzie and Bessie, Katherine into Katie, Martha into Hattie, Margaret into Maggie, Anne and Anna into An nies, and Harriet into Hattie. Such ab? surd names as these appear quite fre? quently: Chattie, Lidie, Millie, Tillie. Kittie, Bosie, Nettie, Bibbie, Aggie ana Margie. ' The great aim seems to be to manufac? ture a name which euds in ie, and in accomplishing it the finest appellations for women we names renowned in poetry or history, aad of a sweet and melodious sound are chopped up into childish diminutives. They convey an idea of pettiness, and do not "belong .to girls of dignity and. character?girls like these,who are going to the Normal college, so many of whom Will have their living to earn. And yet these girls think itis pretty to be known by such pet names, and so discard, as ugly and old-fashioned, the names, by which they are. christened. What would[ they think to see a college register which gave the young men's name as Jimmie, Billie, Bobbie, Charlie, Sammio and Dickie? This fashion is extending among wo? men, and girls are even named with nick? names only, as if they were always to be nothing more than nursery pets. And yet this is a period when women are con? tending-for higher consideration as ra? tional beings and when the range of their occupations outside of the domestic circle is'constantly widening and growing in importance.?New York Sun. v A New Sort op Pill.?Old John Morris, a Little Bock Ark., negro, hit upon the idea of Tanner anti-bilious pills, compounded, he doclared, according to a recipe obtained as of the great faster. He sold some to a woman, who died soon after taking them. John was arrested and taken to court, where the following dialogue took place: Where did you get the medicine you gave the woman ?" "I made hit from directions sent ter me by Dr. Tanner." "What are its component 8arts?" "Hit's made outen roots from e groun' and leaves frum de trees. Does yer wanter to buy a bottle, Jedge ?" "No, sir, I don't. The charge against you is a serious one. What made your medicine kill the woman?" "Why>, Jedge, de medicine didn't kill the 'Oman," "What killed her?" "Why, Jedge, de. 'oman, died, of de surprise. Yer see _she had been takin' eberything in the medical market ac' hit didn't do her no good. She didn't hab much confidence in my medicine, and when she tuck hit an' found that hit went right ter tearin' at the corners ob de biliousness, hit sur? prised de 'oman todeath. Yer can't hole a man for surprisin' anybody ter death. Ef I come ana tells you a good piece ob news, an' you fall dead, de law can't hold me 'spoDsible. An' 'co rdin' ter der same 'stronomy, if I gins a woman a dose ob 'medicine and hit surprise' her ter death, de law can't put de clamps on me," The justice is considering the points of John's argument, but John is still in jail. Pindar Culture.?Col. Paul E. Ham? mond, of Beech Island, has written an interesting article in the August report of the Commissioner of Agriculture on the subject of pindar culture. He says that on a field of leve?, gray and rather thin pine land, corn was planted in six feet rows and in the "middle row," in? stead of the usual pea crop, were pindars. Tli e corn was about as good as land will bring 12 to 14 bushels to the acre and had evidently not been injured by the pindars, while the pi ndars were excellent. He estimates the yield of pindars at 25 bushels to the aero, worth over $80 and the vines at $8, while the total corn and fodder crop would scarcely sell for $9.. He thinks that inasmuch as the process for gathering pindars are tedious aud ex? pensive, and toe market demand limited and uncertain, it is more profitable to feed them off the ground to hogs, per? mitting the hogs to gather them. Twen? ty-five bushels of pindars, he says, with the aid of a very little corn, will fatten five hogs and make 200 pounds of pork, worth $12, the expense of making and harvesting being only the cost of the seed, planting and one chopping out, and if the 'hogs are kept out in wet weather the land will be improved. We might add that expense of hauling the pork home from town would be saved also. He also suggests a plan for planting corn and cotton on the same field in one year, and he says that the fatal error in pre? vious attempts to do so has been in not applying a sufficiency of manure. ? A sad case of suicide by starvation comes from nearMcDonough, Ga. Tuck Jackson, a man thirty-five years of age. conceived the idea that he had committed an unpardonable sin, and one morning at breakfast announced to his wife and his father's family that he would never eat another meal. They took but little notice of his rash remark until he continued to refuse food of any character, although persistently persuaded by the family aud all others of his old friends who visited him. The fact of his fasting was reported to all the neighbors, and they came to see him in large numbers every day. At times ho would manifest a great dislike to all the persons who came into his room, aud at ether times he would show a fondness for some one who might be a stranger, and would absolutely require them to remain with him one or two days at a time. He repulsed all efforts to force food down him. Gradu? ally he dwindled away and became more demented in mind, until finally his body was completely emaciated, and on the seventeenth day he died. He said all the time during the fast that he had committed a great and unpardonable sin, and that he was trying to atone for it. ?- "Absolute acqui escence in the de. cisions of the majority is the vital prin? ciple of republics from which there is no appeal but to force. Should we wander from these principles in moments o f error or alarm, let us hasten to retrace our steps and to regain the road which alone leads to peace, liberty and safety.? Thomas Jeffeison, A Dead Showman.?Jim Robinson, son of John, scarcely less known than the great showman himself, passed through the city Sunday on bis way to his home in Cincinnati, in what was suppose to be a dying condition. His health has been bad for some time, and he has been trav? eling with the advance guard in the hope of mproving it, but recently became so ill that his life was despaired of and it was determined to send him home to die. AVhen-the circus people arrived in the city yesterday evening, a telegram was received nnoouncing the death of Mr. Robinson, at 5 o'clock. He was the second of the three sons of the elder Robinson and a part owner of the show, his father having presented it to him and the two elder brothers. The brothers all left the city last night for Cincinnati to to attend the funeral. In the meantime the show is under the management of Mr. Lowlo.?Charlotte Observer, Septem? ber 28th " The . Preservation or Wood.?The method of preserving wood by the appli? cation-^ lime, as pursued by M. Svostal, is published in the French journals. He piles the plank in a tank, and puts over all a layer of quick lime, which is 'grad? ually slaked with water. Timber for mines requires about a week to be thor? oughly impregnated, and other wood more or less time according to its thick? ness. The material acquires a remark? able degree of hardiness on being sub | jected to this process, and, it is alleged, will never rot. Beechwood has been prepared in this way for hammers and other tools, for iron works, and is said to become as bard as oak without parting with any of its elasticity or toughness, and to last much longer than when not thus prepared. ? A writer in the Journal of Science remarks that noise is a contributor to the tear and wear of modern city life to a very grave degree, and wonders why, while a steady war is waged against many other anti-sanitarian agencies, no really serious and persistent attempt has been made for the abolition of superflu? ous sounds. No complete and satisfac? tory account has yet been given regard? ing the ci use of injurious effect of sound in excess upon the nervous system. Nervous irritability and cerebral disease appear to keep pace with the multiplica? tion of sounds, especially among thinkers. He proposes, therefore, as a palliative, the absolute prohibition of street music and of church bell ringing, and the pre? vention of such sounds as proceed from dogs which bark persistently, and from harmoniums, organs and wind instru [ rnents in general, except in houses which are detached. Set Back 42 Years.?"I was trou? bled for many years with Kidney Com? plaint, -Gravel, &c.; my blood became thin; I was dull and inactive; could hardly crawl about; was an old worn out man all over; could get nothing to help me, until I got Hop Bitters, and now I am a boy again.

TheISew York Herald says: "The spirit in w.iich the Republicans are urg? ing the canvass is causing a great many of their voters, to consider whether it would not be best for the party which they love that It should have a period of adversity, to give its leaders time to con* sider their ways."

AS THE GINNING SEASON is about to commence, it would be to the interest of all who expect to carry on the Ginning business to be careful in the selection of the best machine. It was our object when we started the Gin business; to sell the best Gin made in the United (States, and we claim that we have succeeded. Our PRATT GIN is equal to all, and far superior to many Gins now being offered for sale. We never make a sale without a guarantee of perfect satisfaction, and claim noth? ing for the Gin that we cannot fully substantiate. As we are engaged largely in Cotton Buying, as well as the General Merchandise busi? ness, it is to our interest that every Ginner should use the best Gin. We have bought the past season about 4000 bales of Cotton which was ginned on the Pratt Gin, and in every instance it brought the highest prices. From the many certificates in our possession we arcgratified with the results, and refer you to the following named gentlemen, who arc now using the PRATT GIN, and abide their decision:? Col. J.
