JULY 20, 1899. lt is sm prising to us that sonic ol' the Southern editors could usc their papers in saying merni things about Fighting Joe Wheeler, a man who has Khown by every act ol' Iiis life that he eures more for his country than he did for wealth tl his life. Secretary ? ? 1 Wai liussell A. Alg?-r lias tendered his resignation as a mem lior ol' President McKinley's Cabinet, unlit has been accepted. Elihu Hoot. ?d' New York, has been appointed his successor. The resignation ?d' Secu ta ry Alt,'?-! is believed t?? have in ? n -ought by the President. The l'nited States government has md yet restored the postollice at Lake City, S.e., and thc good people ol that ?oction are being deprived ol Hie mail facilities. This ?san outrage, and de serves the condemnation ?d ? very ?"it i - /.?.il of our whole count ry. 11' ti mob of liv?'or six men were lo assassinate the postmaster of huston ?ir some other Republican stronghold, would thc gov ernment deprive the people of that city of mail facilities? I'rom present indications the Ameri can exhibit at the Paris exposition will astonish Ku rope in the matter of ma chinery, whatever it may do in agricul ture and ot her industrial matters. The showing of American skill in heavy mechanical ironworking will, it is said, he thc most complete t hat America luis ?.ver made, either at home or abroad. There will beat least 17American loco motives on exhibition, and thc exam ples of other structural work, suchas bri?lg?'s, ?-te., will he equally extensive. The commissioners think that the me chanical department will, in its way. lu; quite as great, a surprise to Ku rope as was the Spanish war. Elberton, (?a., is going to have a car nival The big ?-vent takes place from August. 'Jl to Si? inclusive. Tile rail roads have named an exceedingly low rate for th? round trip and ?0,000 visi tors are expected t?> la* in attendance. The program embraces many attractive features and the affair is certain to provea big success. Among the long list of attractions appears horse racing, bicycle contests, shoot mg tournaments, tire works display, balloon ascensions, military pageants, brass bund tourna ments, baseball und tennis games. Au old-fashioned (ieorgia barbecue and u big horscswnppers' convention are also down on the program. Distinguished orators from all sections of the coun try will be present. Of all ?lusses of people, ministers of the gospel should bc more cautious in the use of extravagant expressions than any other, for it is to them the weak and the strong and the blind and the seeing look for moderation as pointers of "the Way." Tho verj' immoderate declaration of Kev. Henry McDonald, of Atlanta, that "should hob Ingersoll be arrested for preaching his doctrine on the streets of Atlanta, he would be lb?' first to go on his bond." is not. taken seriously by those who know this rev erend gentleman, still it shows that the Church is constantly trying to conde scend to the world ami its contamina tions instead of trying to maintain a standard of her own and insisting on the world's recognition of that stan dard. Let the ministry abandon w ild, hysterical ravings and stick closely to the truth and tho causo of the Master will be considerably advanced. mm m> mm -- Many fathers and mothers do not re alize fully, perhaps, tho true value of home study for the children. The in rlueucc of home training is felt in every school. Take the boy or girl who has the proper training at home, aud the teacher has no trouble with him in the school room. There may be exceptions but certainly it is tho general rule. If he is taught obedience at home, he will be respectful to the teacher, hut the man or woman who controls and disciplines the pupil who is unruly at home, has a very dithcult tusk to perform. Home should teach the propriety of social life, thc basal principles of true etiquette, self re spect, respect for others, a tix?'d pur pose to brighten life for other people, manners at tho table and in the parlor. ?rn the piny ground, in tin- church and in thc recitation room. When a child is thoroughly trained at homo in thc principles above stated, its education ts half completed. How detestable is the slanderer! hy the side of him the midnight assas sin might almost be permitted to go ituwhipt of justice; for this one aims the dagger only to take aw ay human life, while that one hurls his poisonous shafts with the deliberate intent of ruining reputation and killing char acter. Wholly corrupt, lie linds nothing good in others; blinded, he can not see in any life tin- beautiful dowers ?d' virtue and innocence and loveliness, and therefore insists that thefie do not bloom. He is never happy except when impugning the motives of others and ascribing sinis ter purposes to all their efforts. Like tho harpies in fabled story, his pres ence is nauseous, his touch polluting. Often indeed ho succeeds in turning Koiue innocent victim's cup of life, otherwise sweet, into a bitter draught ; but there remains thc comforting as surance that in the end his plans will go awry and his punieses foil of ac complishment. Commend us to thc man of magnanimity, though ho pos sess a thousand faults, rather than to the loathsome villifier of his kimi. Pitiable, as well as detestable, is tho narrow-minded and mean-spirited man who cannot recognize merit nor appre ciate worth even in an enemy. I II thc (leith of Cul. lit ?bert < .. luger- I soil. I'rautl loses ono ot' its most able advocates, nihilism its trusted apostle, | and blasphemy ito inspired silver ton gue. Ile, muong nil modern infidels bas sown broadcast over the field more of the tares ol' unbelief and doubt than eau be reckoned .'from the human point of view. He sowed a w hirlwind, and he bas reaped-. Ab! we can not peer beyond this "narrow vale between the cold ami barren peaks of two eternities. We strive in vain to look beyond the he?Khts. We ny aloud, and the only answer is the. echt? ol' our wailing cry. From the voiceless Hps of the unreplying dead there ?ornes no word;1'but from th?* depths of doubt ing hearts, shattered faiths and blasted hopes rises a mournful requiem for the end of the great unknowing soul. Let ns hope that hr may not be meted ont thc harvest he has sown, for il thc blood ami sighs of every ?me. from whom lie struck the armor of faith is placed ?m his now knowing head, he is sunken to night beneath a raging, ever restless, turgid sea of blood with the wailing and the weeping ami tIM* morseful sighing of every surging bil low. II?'was a plausible reasoner, yel under analysis a sophist and a per verter, bimi of myst ideation by spe cious arguments ami magical phrases. Ile was an advocate ?if purity, domestic happiness, education, temperance and freedom; ami thc unrelenting foe of canting hypocrisy, for it was through these banes to tin- church's spirituality that his antagonism was directed to the whole, lie wa;; a man of master intel lect ami swayed his hearers like reeds in the wind. We are told that he died as he wished, suddenly; but we ran but think think thal his taking oft' w as a complete disappointment to him. Had he lingered long before treading the sombrous shore of the Stygian flood, he intended giving the lie to all bis fallacious doctrines a foolish world so eager drank, and proclaim tho truth hii now knows too well. The seed he sowed are still germinating. Who, then, ran say what the fruitage will be? His doctrine, as pernicious as thc loathed intemperance he s?> strongly denounced, to quote his own words, "Burns up men, consumes women, de tests life, ?'Ursen (iod and despises heaven. It brings shame, mit honor; tenor, not safety ; despair, mit hope; misery, not happiness; anti with tilt; malevolence of a fiend it calmly sur veys its frightful desolation, and un satisfied with its havoc, it ruins morals, 'slays reputation, ami wipes out national honors, then curses the world ami laughs at its ruin." Holland's Store. Crops are needing rain badly. Our farmers have about ceased cultivation andar? waiting and hoping for a wet spell. Thc health ?if our community is good now. We had a walk a new days ng?i over the farm of Mr. Chas M. Findley. .Mr. findley bought a piece of bottom land on Mountain Creek, thought at thc time by many to be almost worthless ns it was too wet even for a pasture. A cow could not walk through it with 'safety. To-day he lins it all dry and between '-iii and JJO acres of as tine, corn as ever grows in this country, and will make something like 40 or 00 bushels per acre. This shows what can be done in this old county when backed by judgment and pluck. If you think we have strained or prevaricated just do as we did, gt? and look. Mr. Findley will take pleasure in showing you over his farm. A very intcivstiugmeeting of several days closed tit Mountain Creek last Sunday. The pastor. Kev. Mr. Cope land, did tin? preaching. Much inter est was manifested, the preaching faithful and pointed, und while the ingathering was not large, we believe the seed ROWU will bring forth in due season.

There H a popular npiuiou that glasses ?bould never be worn so long as the eyes can possibly get along without them. There waa never a greater mistake. The very first symptoms of defective eye sight, the drat indication of fatigue, should be recognised as osture's call lor help To peraist in forcing the eyes to perform work too great for their endur ance, is simply an abuse of the most pre? cious sense we have The most eminent sutbority says tbst the greater percent age of cataract snd other diseases of the eye are brought about by this habit than from all other causea combined. If you have the slightest suspicion tbst your eyes are not perfectly correct, 1 want to look them over. A defect that may be easily remedied now may be difllcult tater, thus a little care at the proper time 'nay wave you untold miaery and many years of sight. Respectfully. A. C. STRICKLAND.

Hence wnh?v? secured c larger and more desirable house on Granite Row. Now, we have not for gotten what a job it was four years ago to lug about nine thousand dollars of stufl' up here from our little old place, though the back doors were almost touch ing. And how much more of a job will it be now for us to move over twenty-five thousand of Goods clear across the Pub lic Square. We don't want to do it, and we ain't agoin' to do it.
