Tom Watson, of Georither put the Honorable G. Clevein a hole, didn't he? And Grover been heard of since Watson's reply. Ie won't be either, on this question. His cord is so bad on that negro business e wonder is he was foolish enough to fblicly deny "Watson's charge. Senator Mayfield lays down the senarial toga without a rent or stain. His cord is that of an honest, conscientious rvant of the people, and he is too modt to boast of the valuable service he 0 Tendered his people to whom he is (devotedly attached.

Representative Wade, of Iowa, inmak ??>Jllga speecil aDOUl me ianu me umer uay ^applied an anecdote of an Irishman at ||?;Jfiagara Falls. "The gentleman from Illinois, Mr. |||;CBoutelle," said Mr. "Wade, "insists that the ra$eoantry is prosperous, and he read a lot of fl^ljiewspaper articles to prove it. Others | insist on the same state of affairs. But p whenever I hear one of these members BprjpTlrinr T am reminded of the gentleman ^prom Ireland who went to see Niagara jfe" "He hired a guide to take him all Bparound. The guide showed the gentleIreland everything, and when the |ri':ffoide got through the Irishman inquired: llpSls that all?" "Yes," replied the guide. "I have shown pjou all the points of interest. "I don't g^aee why people should come from all over world to see this," the gentleman jp^irom Ireland insisted. | . "Well, don't you see that magnificent giSgBttaract of water rushing over the precifepice?" "Sure," said the tourist, "but why gouldn't it; what is there to hold it A Beautiful Countryside Church Marriage. Ulmer, April 16.?Down in the woodlands on the great Saltkehatchie about one mile from this place there has stood from time immemorial a large Baptist church. The one standing here in 1S65 was ruthlessly dismantled by Sherman's "bummers," the boards were hauled to the swamp and used to span the thirtyodd little creeks intersecting the causeway. Shortly after the war this quaint structure was replaced by a handsome and more commodious one. On last Thursday afternoon this sacred spot was the scene of a large nuptial throng. Two or three weeks ago scores of invitations were sent out to the friends and kinsmen of the bride and groom-elect, announcing the coming marriage of Miss Rosa, the eldest daughter of Mr. and . Mrs. H. W. Deer, to Claude, eldest son of Mr. Jas. McMillan, the groom being at . present book-keeper for a large firm in New Decatur, Ala., where he and his charming and popular young bride will be "at home" after the 15th of May. On the afternoon of the appointed day well-filled buggies, phaetons and carriages I wended their wav to the church, and by 4 o'clock it was densely packed with men, ladies and children, while quite a number stood on the porch and in the yard. Near 5.30 the bridal party arrived, and after a few instructions by the chaperone, Mrs. White, formerly of Charleston, S. C., now of Cameron, S. C., two pretty little girls with baskets of flowers preceeded the bride-to-be leaning on the arm of her sister, Ada, maid of honor, and the groom with his brother, Alonzo, as best man, followed by the bridesmaids and bridegrooms down the two aisles, all moving at the strains of Mendelssohn's wedding march, rendered by an estimable lady, Mrs. O. D. A. Wilson, of this place. In front of the chancel stood a minature slatted double-gate, fastened with a wreath of flowers, where the party halted and was met by the pastor, Rev. S. R. Bass, officiating in the ceremonies, who, after the usual interrogations and joining of hands, the gate was opened Dy the little flower girls, he in his concise words and courtly manner pronounced the twain man and wife. A large horseshoe bedecked with evergreens and flowers, surmounted by a lighted lamp, hung above the betrothed couple. After a brief prayer, Mazeppa's march entire was played by the fair organist, when osculations and felicitations were extended to the bride and groom who soon repaired to the carriage awaiting at the steps and after being seated a shower of red and white roses was scattered Dy loving nanas, indicating a flowery journey as they wandered down the stream of life. The realization of their day-dreams being now attained the throbbing hearts of the happy pair were infused with exultant hopes of the future, and as your correspondent looked down from the porch on the bevy of gay, vivacious young bridesmaids and the ardent group of their gallants, all seemed to preclude the idea of any of them ever becoming spinisters or bachelors. The elated bridal party returned about sunset to the home of the bride's fond parents, where a huge horseshoe table (enclosing the waiters with the bride and groom at the head outside) laden with the richest viands which was heartily partaken of by all present, and afterwards the pleasures of the evening were participated in until a late hour. The bridal presents were beautiful but too numerous to mention and describe in a limited space, and description of trousseau, etc., will be left to abler pens. ,There were visitors from Brunson, Fairfax, Sycamore and Allendale, among those of the latter being Henry Wolff with his wife, nee Pearlstine, and her niece, of New York ; Mrs. White, of Cameron; and Mr. and Mrs. Hurd, friends of the groom, of New Decatur, Ala. The last two, in company with the bride and groom, with her brother, Alonzo, will leave on Tuesday next for their home in the Southwest. To reverse the usual order there is given below the names of the the flower girls, ushers and waiters: Annie May White and Sadie Harter, Messrs. Ben Bronson and Whilden McMillan, Miss Ada Sanders with George Ulmer, Miss Viola Weekly with Otis Deer, Miss Mollie Creech with Jas. Wideman, Miss Addie Alexander with Elvin Deer, Miss Mattie Kinard with Arthur Cave, Miss Lena Deer with Gordon Boynton. Let it be added that the festivities did not cease with Thursday night's reception supper, for on Friday an enjoyable infare was given at noon to the nuptial party at the home of Mr. Jas. McMillan in Great Cypress township. If any errors are noted in the foregoing statements, please ask your interested readers, Mr. Editor, not to censure too hastily, as the writer could not gain entrance to the building during the ceremony and was not an eye-witness to the supper. S. O. J. The people who need religion are: The man who lets his horse stand out in the cold all day, without a blanket; the man who growls like a hyena when his wife asks him for money; a woman who whispers that another woman is not what she ought to be; the man who keeps a dog, and then says he cannot afford to give to the poor. These are they who need it and seldom have it. And there's no way of getting it to them. Keligion is a thiug you must go after if you want it. A THOUGHTFUL MAN. M. M. Austin, Winchester, Ind.. knew what to do in the hour of need. His wife had such an unsual case of stomach and liver trouble, physicians could not help her. He thought of and tried Dr. King's New Life Pills and she got relief at once and was cured. Only 25c, at J. B. Black; H. C. Rice, Denmark. Good Reason. A school inspector, explaining to his class that tne lana or ine worm was nor continuous, said to the boy who happened to be standing nearest to him: "Now, could your father walk round the world ?" "No, sir," was the prompt reply. "Why not?" "Because he's broken his leg," was the altogether unlooked for response. COUGH MEDICINE FOR CHILDREN. When you buy a cough medicine for small children you want one in which you can place confidence. You want one that not only relieves but cures. You want one that is harmless. You want one that is pleasant to take. Chamberlain's Cough Remedy meets all these conditions. There is nothing so good for coughs and colds incident to childhood. It is a certain preventive and cure for croup, and there is no danger from whooping cough when it is given. It has been used in epidemics of that disease with perfect success.
