NO TIME FOB HATING. one with feud! away with strife; ur human hearts un mating! . Let us be friends again ! This life Is all too short for hating! So dull the day, so dim the way, So rough the road we're faring? Far better weal with faithful friend, Than stalk alone uncaring! The barren fig, the withered vine, Are types of selfish living; But souls that g_ i ve li ke thine and mine: Renew their life by giving. While cypress waves o'er early graves, On all the way we':re going. Far better plant, where seed is scant, Than tread on fruit; that's growing. Away with scorn since die we must And rest on ono low pillow; There are no rivals in the dustc No foes beneath the: willow. So dry the bowers, so few the flowers Our earthly way discloses, Far better stoop wherei daisies droop Than tramp o'er broken roses! Of what are all the joys we hold Compared to joys above us! And what are rank, and power and gold Compared to hearts that love.us? So fleet our years, so full of tears, So closed death is waiting; Q od gives us space for loving grace, But leaves no time for hating. MAY WOMEN WOO ? Intelligent DLtcuaftlon of an Important Problem. From lite Liberal Review. It is generally supposed to be a dread? ful thing for a woman to "set her cap at" ?in other words, to attempt to ?00 and win?a man. Those who air the cheap philosophy of the time, and consider that there is no law so supreme as etiquette, while they hold the supposed decrees of the omnipotent Mrs. Grundy in deep reverence, seem to imagine that it is the duty of a girl to hide from her? self the fact that she has a heart until some unexceptional suitor discovers it to her, and ardently protests that it is the one great thing in the world necessary to his happiness. If she ventured to hint that she was so anxious for the affection of some male that she would do anything within reason to secure him for her lord, she would be accounted unmaidenly, bold and what not; and it would, in all . probability, be urged that she might be ? expected to come to a bed end, andservd as an awful warning to all members of her sex who are inclined to be undiscip? lined. Bat there is, nevertheless, only too much reason to believe that female hu? man nature is so weak and wayward and impervious wO the concentrated wisdom of the ages that the emotions which lead to, matrimony do not always have their, origin in the bosoms of impassioned beaux. Now and then, it is solemnly recorded, in shocked tones and under the veil of secrecy, so that the terrible fact obtains almost as much publicity as if it were proclaimed by the town papers, and has a peculiar, delicious flavor imparted to it, that Mrs. Brown actually commit? ted the enormity of making love to Mr. Brown, if she did not in plain terms invite him to become her husband. It is comparatively unimportant that sho and her mate appear to be as happy and to get on as well together as they would, in all probability have done if he had been the first to feel the stab of Master Cupid's dart, and had warmly takes the initia? tive in the courtship. It seems to be held that the only plea which may ap? propriately bo urged in extenuation of her conduct is that she rejoiced in the possession of an abundance of pelf and a certain position, while, his social status was as low as his purse was light ; and even this plea has to be handled with - adroitness if it is to become effective. Indeed, at a critical moment, when they have all the touching details of the ex* ceptional matter before them, -they will not hesitate to epcak in terms of wither? ing scorn of the frail female who is so much the slave of her heart that she is acting as if she desired to bring to her feet a man who, from bashfulness or some ? other cause, would not, seemingly, get there but for her stimulating influence. If she fails they rejoice over the down? fall, and feelingly declare that she will merely meet with her deserts if she de? generates into a neglected and petulant old maid, while if she succeeds they vig? orously discount her triumph, on the ground that it is. one of which any well regulated female would* be thoroughly ashamed. The members of her own sex, when they cultivate the power of intro? spection and are becoming mature, should know how to make excuses for her, are invariably her most virulent critics. Even men, however, are disposed to show her no mercy, and there is, probably, do more lofty and vigorously indignant crea? ture than* the being who feels that he has been "angled" but flatters- himself be? cause he has not been caught by the bait which hp; been so temptingly placed be? fore him. He would almost appear to fancy that he should, on account of the way he has escaped the snares that have been spread for him, be placed on. the roll, of the world's heroes. Novelists are. the most venturesome of beings, and they have a fondness for flouting conven? tionality ; but there are bounds beyond which they dare not go, and they per? ceive how hazardous it would be for them to outrage popular prejudice by depicting heroines who took the initia? tive in love attain. A queen of England is at liberty to make an "offer" to a prince?indeed, it is not etiquette for a prince to make an "offer" to her?but she occupies quite an exceptional position, and the fact is one which need not to be further considered in reference to the subject, especially as her marriage may generally be deemed to be largely influ? enced by State considerations. Thus everything is against the woman wooer, and it is not surprising that, she remains something of a rara avis, and, when her heart proves too strong for her sense of proprieties, often works in cunning and crooked ways, as if sbe was bent on de? ceiving herself, and not letting her left hand know of the doings or her right. Yet there is, after all, a good deal of reason and common sense on her side; so much that it is surprising of the advo? cates of the "woman's rights" movement have yet to energetically take up the cudgel on her behalf. It is absurd to suppose that affection must inevitably begin with theman. It is equally absurd that he alone must be at liberty to vin the being whom he believes to be neces? sary to bis life's happiness. The indi? vidual who allowed a rich prize to elude him because through some mistaken no? tion of what people in whom he was in no way interested, and for whom he did not care a jot would think, he would not stretch forth his band and grasp it when it was well within his reach, would, very properly, be accounted a fit subject for the asylum. Why, theo, should a wo? man be debarred from doing her best to stir the sluggish nature of the being whom she has, with the uatural perver? sity of her sex, fallen in love with, and who would, she has every reason to be? lieve, be worthy of her? She may see that if she will hold out her hand he will take it, but that if she gives no sign he will pass on, and their fives, which sbe fondly thinks would be exquisite if blended in the future, lie far apart. Will it not be merely elementary wis? dom for her to come down from the un? comfortable pedestal where all her ener? gies and emotions are cruelly cramped, on which artificiality has set her? We do not believe in the popular impression that the well directed maiden only dis? covers that she has a heart when the right man asks for it. On the contrary, we are of opinion that many girls long, with all the inteusity of fresh and ardent souls, for certain men as consorts, when no word of love has been whispered in their ears, and when no token of affection has been tendered them, and that not a few become broken spirited because the chance for their bright dreams being realized vanishes. At present a woman frequently forfeits her possibility of bliss from the circumstances that she, owing to her surroundings and sense of what is expected of her, feigns a coldness which she is far from feeling when the man whom she loves, while fearing to take the final plunge, evinces some desire to win her favor. Many would-be husbands hesitate.to.say, "Will, you marry me?" only because they dread that the query will be answered, iu the negative, and they shrink from incurring what they would regard as a keen humiliation. Of course it may be urged that such cravens I are unworthy of women's love, but the women have to be considered as well as they, and the.fact remains that notwith? standing their obliquity of vision and cowardice, and. the clumsy manner in which they mismanage their amours, I they- would frequently make true, tender and excellent husbands. It is a pity, then, for all parties that their -short? sightedness and stumbling should be permitted to lead tosuch disastrous con? sequences, and their sweethearts might very well be allowed to help themselves.. Hen have the whole world to choose their wives from, but women may under the most advantageous condition of things, only select their mates from the comparatively limited number of men who seek their society and deign to look on them with favor. Of course, it may be urged that the rough and ready sys? tem of natural selection leads to fewer evils than might be anticipated?some enthusiasts may still maintain that mar? riages are made in heaven, notwithstand? ing the fashion in which female humanity is hampered, and the ridiculously one? sided state of things prevailing on.earth ?but that it leads to gigantic mistakes is certain, and it is time the weaker sex were given to understand that under certain conditions they may help them? selves to gratify their legitimate and natural longings. WILD KILL OF MISSISSIPPI. A Deserted Child Who Lived Alone in Swamps Till Manhood. Reading of the discovery recently of a wild man m the Antelope range of moun? tains in this State, recalls to memory the capture of a wild white human being in the swamps bordering the great river of the West below the city of Natcb.es in the State of Mississippi, in the year 1824, who had grown from childhood up to man's estate without seeing a single person of bis own species until he was found by bis captors. Believing that the incidents of the story will prove of inter-, est to our readers, they are herewith given: In Wilkinson county, in the. State above named, just above the old-town of Fort ?dams, there is a strip of country known as Old River, which was seldom visited by the pioneer settlers of that region, and tben only for the purposes of fishing and hunting, as both game and fish were there to be found in abundance. In that year a party of hunters, to their astonishment discovered the naked foot? prints of a human .being leading through the mud into the water of the old bed of this river. Their curiosity was the more strangely excited from the fact that no one resided in the immediate vicinity of that place, and the settled portions were but sparsely populated. To discover who it was that made the footprint they hun? ted several days iu succession with their dogs, and finally brought to bay in a drove of wild hogs a tall, sinewy human being in a state of perfect nudity. He brandished in his hand a stout stick, with which he defended himself against the dogs, the bogs rallying around him, seemingly for his protection. He gave utterance to no intelligible sounds?only yel Is of rage and screeches. They bound and carried him to the town of Wood ville, the seat of justice of the county, some twenty miles distant. He was in every respect a veritable human being, with a good coating of hair over bis body, which, it is to be inferred, nature furnishes all her creatures, otherwise un? protected, to shield them from the ele? ments. He had lost the power of speech, which indicated that he had been left to himself when very young.- By kind' treatment he soon became domesticated, his faculty of speech was restored, and he gave this account of himself: When quite a boy, supposed; some sis or seven years, his. father, ^(presumably) rarjfe. down the Mississippi "River from some of the Western States and Territories in a flatboat with his mother, his elder sis? ter and himself, and landed at the mouth of Old River, near where the town of Fort Adams now stauds, where they re? mained for several days. One day the father killed his mother and sister with an axe. Instigated by fear the boy ran off and concealed himself in a hollow iog.v* His v father hunted him, calling him "Billy," but he remained silent in his place of concealmeut. Being unable to find the boy, he loosed the flatboat from its fastening, and floated down the river, as was supposed, to New Orleans. Left alone at so tender an age iu a wild, uninhabited section, the law of necessity became to him the law of existence. The climate beiog mild, made it favora? ble to him. He selected a magnolia, or bay tree, hollow at the base, which, in that section, grew to great size, and made himself a bed of leaves and moss, where he stayed at night and took shelter when it rained. For food, he subsisted on frogs, tadpoles, such fish as he could catch, and the wild fruit that grew there in summer. Thus be managed to live until the time of his capture. The hab? its of this unfortunate beiug, and the changes which took place in him from the time his intellect began to develop by coming-in contact with civilization, is interesting to contemplate. At first the emotions of shame he knew nothing of,.and it was difficult to make him wear clothing when the weather was warm. Whenever hunger pinched him, and be could obtain nothing else to satisfy his appetite, he would return to bis original diet of frogs, raw fish, etc. An amusing instance of this kind occurred on one occasion. It was the fortune of the writer of this to be in the family who had "Wild Bill" in charge. On one Saturday he, with Bill, each on a horse, with a bag of corn, were sent to mill some miles in the country. Being de? tained by the miller until evening, Bill became hungry. Returning home he heard a frog croaning in a lagoon by the wayside, instantly he sprang from bis horse and cautiously waded into the water, stooping until it reached his chin, so as not to alarm the frog. Guided by its croaking on the opposite bank, he moved slowly until he came iu reach of it, and darting forth his hand, he seized the frog, and taking it by the legs, tore tbem asunder and ate it with a relish. Fora long time he was irresponsible, and required to be in charge of some one to keep him out of mischief and trouble. On one notable occasion Mrs. Hammett, his guardian, wished to pay a visit to some of her lady friends in the town of j Woodville, and her son, who was gener? ally charged with the task of looking after Bill, being absent, she locked him up inside the house. Her return being delayed until evening, Bill found the atmosphere of the room oppressive, aud denuded himself of his clothing. Beiog hungry, he concluded to do his own cooking, and endeavoring to do what be had seen others do'in this line, he put into a skillet a little of every thing he could find in the house?hog's lard and ground coffee mixed in?and putting it on the fire, stirred it until he thought it was sufficiently cooked. When Mrs. Hammett returned, accompanied by some of her lady neighbors, and un? locked the door, she found Bill seated on the floor near the hearth with the skillet before him, lifting its contents with both hands to his mouth; and expecting chas? tisement he backed into a corner, licking bis lips with his tongue. He was ex? ceedingly fond of sweot things, and par ticularly of strong drinks, if they were sweetened. For a drink of sweeted whiskey he would attempt anything. At one time he was promised a glass of whiskey and sugar if he would whip General iloor, who, iu full feather, was mustering the county militia, according to the old manner of doing such things annually. To obtain the promised glass, Bill stealthily came up behind him, took him by the hair of the head and bore him into the dust on the street. Find? ing himself thus assailed, General Joor drew his sword and pierced Bill through the thigh. From this wound he never fairly recovered. He was very agile and fast of foot. He could climb a tree with surprising quickness, swim and manage a horse with dexterity. It was with him as with a child. From the time of his capture he kuew not right from wrong until he was taught, and until his intel? lect expanded and he began to compre? hend his true position in society ho sor? rowed over the reflection. He sickened and died in New Orleans in the year of 1829, while in charge of a gentleman who undertook to exhibit him for money. ?San Francisco Examiner. Instructions to Passengers.?When you get to the station, hunt.up the agent and ask him what time the next train goes. Never mind about telling him which way, for he can ask you that; it will show whether ho is paying any at? tention to your question. Then ask him whaUime all the other trains come, just to see if he knows. If you think of it ask if they Btop, if they are freight or passenger, and any other little things you can think of, for you know he gets paid for answering, questions. It don't matter whether you intend riding on the train or not. If you are tired, go and sit down, but do. not rest longer than neces? sary, for you have not inquired if the road is going to change time soon, and what time the train will be likely to get through on the new card. Ask him what time toe trains run by on this road, and bow much faster that is than Chicago time, for he knows, and if he does not tell it is becii?s? he is uncivil. Just as the train is. coming, and'the agent is closing his tbket window to go out to the train, rush up and tell him you want a ticket. Don't say anything about where you want to go. See how near he can guess at it. Give him a $10 bill, and after he has hurried up to get out his change bo.v, if there is any silver among it, s&y to him: "Here, I guess I've got the change," for this is the way to find aout his disposition. This is a good time to tell him you have a trunk to check. Tl!ie world was not made in a day, and what's the use of being iu a hurry? Put your ticket in your pocket book and button two or three coats over your pocket. Don't make a move to get it ready for the conductor until he asks you for it, for ho may miss you and yon would be that much ahead.. Then be has lots of time to wait, but if he hasn't it's not your fault. During your trip, ask the conductor all the questions you asked the ngent, for perhaps the agent has lied to you about some of them. If the con? ductor answers you short, in reply to any of your questions, it is because lie is mad at your buying a ticket. He wanted you to pay him so he could knock down the money?for you know they all steal. Tue. Last Resort.?A Boston lady who had a somewhat Bachanaliau spouse, resolved to frighten him into temperance. She, therefore, engaged a watchman, for a stipulated reward, to carry "Philander" to the watch-bouse, while yet in a state of insensibility, and to frighten him a little when he recovered. In conse? quence of this arrangement, he was waked up about eleven o'clock one night and found himself lying on u piano bench in a strange and dim apartment. Raising himself on his elbow, he looked around, uutil his eyes rested on a man sitting by the stove and smoking a cigar. "Where am I?" asked Philander. "In the medical college," said the cigar smoker. "What am I doing here?" "Going to be cut up I" " Gat up t How. comeB that ?" "Why,, you .djed yesterday" while you were drunk, and we brought your body here to make a'natomy!" "It's a lie 1 I ain't dead!" "No matter; we bought yoiir carcass anyhow from your wife who had a right to sell it, for it's &Y. 4be good she ever could make out of you. If you are not dead, it's no fault of the doctors, and they will cut you up, dead or alive." "You will do it, hey?" asked the old sot. "To be sure we will?now?immedi? ately." "Well, say, look here, can't you let us have something to drink before you b'. gin ?" An Ex-Governor on the Maine Liquor Law.?Ex-Governor Lot M. Morrill, of Maine, passed through Char? lotte, N. C, recently, on his way South for the sake of his health. While in that city, says the Observer, he waB asked in reference to the prohibition law in Maine. He said that since the passage of this law, the condition of the people had immeasurably improved, mentally socially and physically. Crime had di? minished ; intemperance had diminished and pauperism was a thing, unknown. Somebody had written something about an increase in lunacy in Maine on this ac? count. Whoever-it was, he said must be a lunatic. No sane man who knew any? thing about it would write no such stuff. He had several times had occasion to traverse the State while on canvassing tours, and to see a drunken man was a rare occurrence. Some would have liquor and drink it, but they were comparative? ly few, and these scar jely ever drank .to excess. He gave it as his experience that the law was in every way a benefi? cial one, and contributed greatly to the happiness and improvement of the peo? ple. He only stayed several hours in the city, arriving in the morning and leaving on the afternoon train. A number of gentlemen called upon him before he left.

I In the year 1873, there were two negro prisoners i confined in the jail of this county, who were very badly afflicted with that loathsome disease Syphilis. In iny official capacity as Ordinary, I employed Capt. C. T. Swift, then a resident of this place, to cure theiu, under a contract, "ho cure, no pay." He administered to them his celebrated Syphilitic Specific, and iu a few weeks I felt bound, under my contract, to pay him out of the county treasury, as he had effected a complete and radical cure. In testimony I hereunto set my official signa *?>?.* ture and seal. I Seal i A. S. UaLES, ?,?>t Ordinarv Houston County, Ga. Chattanooga, Tens., Feb. 14, 1879. We take pleasure in saying that the S.

One gentleman, who bad been confiucd to his bed six weeks with Syphilitic Rheumatism, has been cured entirely, and speaks in the highest praise of it.
