THE UNION TIMES, UNION, S. t'. f A movement is under way in England to stop or regulate tho fining of employes in stores. If* v "Too much care will kill a eat," it is asserted, but if you are in a hurry a properly aimed shotgun will be found just as effective and muoh moro expeditious. Tho valuo of tho railways owned by the Gorman Government is ostimated at 8175.000,000, and that of tho postal and t olograph buildings and outfit at $75,000,000. JiiDgliHumon aro growmp iu ?ijuiv,u as 'much at tho prorogation of Parliament as Americans do at tho adjournment of Congress, alleges tho Now York Advertiser. Divorco has been legal in Franco "but eight years. Tho first yenr 1700 divorces wcro granted; tho socond 4000; in 1S94 it was 8000 and tho total for tho eight years is 40,000. Of those seeking divorco 47 per cent aro from tho working classes and 7 per cent from tho peasants. Tho tragedy at tho Novelty Thoatre in London, in which one actor stabbed another and killed him, will probably bo followed by legislation noxt year making the uso of dangorons weapons on tho stage a penul ofTouco. The dagger with whioh the aotor was killed was a present from tho lato Ada Caven dish, the actress. In order to complete the horror of this realism, the curtain was raised twice for scenic effefc. before it was discovered that the victim had been stabbed to the heart. When it is known that the coal fields of England had more than anything elso to do with tho creation at Manchester of the greatest cotton manufacturing center of the world, the importance of the Alabama coal can bo appreciated, observes the New Orleans Picayune. There is coal in (Tennessee, Texas, Arkansas and Alabama, and it oan be distributed by river and rail to any part of the Southern cotton belt, so that the time is not far distant when the greatest manufacturing of cotton will be in the cotton States. The possibilities of thii expansion are almost unlimited.

In 169 the number of passengers killed i Pennsylvania was ono to evory 4,300 000 carried and in New York only on passenger lost his lifo to every 9,500 000 carried, the rate among employi being of course pTeater. These cot parisious, taken from official figure lead to tho conclusion that in tl matter of safoty appliances, Now Yo: is in advance of Pennsylvania, in pi teotion of both passongers and ei ploycs.

The Most Kciuarkublo Scenes Since i 18o4?Providence Prevented Ex? trcinely Stormy Woutlier. i I A spocinl to tho Savannah (Ga.) Morning i News from Brunswick, Oa., received at 11 ' o'clock last Friday night, says a big tidal wave came In on au October Northeaster. ( No lives wore lost but great damngo to property was sustained in Brunswick. Citizens owning rice plantations are fearful that theireutire unshipped crops are gone and this seetns probable. The loss of tho rioo planters will tiius be heavy and not easily sustniuod by tlieui lu view of tho past mis- ' Imps. The tidal wave furnished the most in- 1 toresting sight sineo the one ol 1854. The water completely hid all the marshes between Brunswick. Fancy ItluiT, Jokyl, St. Simons, 1 Southern railway docks and other places* Long stretches of the boulevard were under water and thousands of marsh and wntor ' animals were driven on shore for refuge. The Monk street docks were completely covered, i St. Simons ticket oflleo and warehouse were ; cut off. Passengers from St. Simons were ferried across the docks to shore, the water . being eighteen incites over the docks. From St. Simons the steamer Edgemont came across the water from Havered marsh, a thing enbeard of before. Everything was one vast sea of water and Captain Dart had to ueo Ids compass and chart to get to town. Water birds of various kinds Uew to tho Edgemont to rest, their search for land having exhausted them. Many were brought to town. Heavy <1 rifts of marsh grass and sea rack, covered with thousands of minks and Bcabirds. came against tho Edgemont re- j tarding her progress. On Newcastle, Druuwick's principal busi- . ncss street, water came from the drain pipes j and in one place formed a solid sheet across i street. On every hand were evidences of the vast amount of water surging into tho bay below. All along tho wntor edges, children with sticks wero killing boat loads of garno and tabic delicacies, and over 100 hunters were out in boats shotting marsh hens by the thousands. There is great feasting in many homes. Providence prevented extremely stormy weather. or much disaster would havo accompanied the wave. At Fernundlna, Fin., heavy winds from the northeast blow all day aud tho tide rose so high that a big lot of damage along tho river front was done. The dock which Is used by tho Florida Tie and Lumber company wero under water aud numbers of ties have been Wiisnea away, ine waier roso ior ? uiock 1 up Ceutro street, and the lumber drifted right up into the street. The storm signals were boat into threads. ' The entire row of Florida Central A Peninsular ltailroad tracks along tho river front wore under water, and tho foundation of tho dock was washed away. At the elevator the [ engines and bollor rooms were three feet , under water and the trains which arrived could not com* up to the depot, but had to L stop at the Beech street crossing. The steamer City of Brunswick, which runs between Fernandlno, Fla., and Brunswick, Ga., was unable to faoe the rough weather in the sound. At 8t. Augustine a heavy northeaster came ^ in at midnight and brought a heavy tide. It Hooded Bay street, and the streets south of Bridge street were also flooded. ELECTION IN FLORIDA. ' Tbe Democratic Majority Not Ovtr 20,000 awl u WoV 11; !. ?. The election in Florida Tuesday passed of! quietly, but the meagre returns so far re1 celved Indicate that a very light vote was % cast. The election was held under the Australian ballot law, and reports show that ' Demoornt9, Republicans and Populists nllke M are dissatisfied with It. Estimates plaoethe 5 Democratic majority at not over 20,000, and n it may fall considerably under that figure. I There were threo complete State tickets it '* tho field?Democratic,Renutdieau and Popu ie list. Tho Prohibitionists had a candidate foi Governor. It was tho first time tho Itopubll " cans had a ticket in the since inns. mi as lightness of the vote is attributed to tin new election lnw and to the recent storn Q* which swept tlie State.

Tradesman is In close touch with all legitimate, industrial interests of the 8outh and special reports indicate a much better foiling among mannficturors. The movement in cotton and wheat continues active. Confidence In the Iron and steel market continues strong. The demano (or pig Iron increases at some points, where investments in Southern pig have been so extensive, u speculative feeling is risible. Advances iu Soutbein pig are being (Irmly maintained. The final test of the Hawkins process of steelmaking from Alabama Iron has been mode at the plant of the Jefferson Steel Manufacturing company, at awiiu x>tilu^uttui, uuu wu? odiiivij wivnh factory. Tho result will be the changing of the .lefTorson company's plant into a steal mill at no distant date. Thirteen furnaces are iu blast in the Blrminghum district and Inrgo sales of iron are reported, the demand fully equalling the output. Iron men bdtleve tho upward movement iu the market has come to stay. Tho lumber mnrket shows very little change. At some points business is Increasing, while at others it is reported only fair for the season. The export trade is all that could Ir> desired, the mills having all tho work l hey can do. The textile industries are characterized by Inereasiag activity, and but few Idle spindles are reported in the South. Work is progressing favorably on mills iu course of construction. and several largo plants will be ready to. begin business before tho llrst of the year.

He found there a dense crowd, estimated at 15,000 people. The audience was not composed wholly of Memphlans. Large contingents, not only from Arkansas and Mississippi, but from Alabama and Kentucky,with, of course, largo numbers from nearby places in Tcnn| essoe were there.

AN OLD FRiKN l> IN KOMK MAKR9 >' HIM RETROSPECTIVE. ? x? ? He .Writes Interestingly of Aaron liurr. Hamilton's Slayer, 'k I see that my old friond, Bain Carnochan, of Home, has recently celebrated his eighty-sixth birthday. He is still hale and hearty and lores to talk to his frionds about tho good old times. He is a harness maker by trade, and perches on his stool and J talks while he works and feefs the feeling of an honest, industrious man. Apprenticed to the trade whon ho was fourteen years old, he has continuously pursued his calling for seventy years, ahd in all that timo 1 do not suppose that he ever dofrauded any man. I have never beard him complain of liik lot or of hard times. I | never heard him abuse anybody more thau to say. "lie should not have dono fhat. It is wroug. What a pity; what a pity." And yet ho is a man of opinions and convictions and does not hesitate to express them. IIow came old Father Carnochan to be so industrious and work so hard and live so long and ebjoy life and havo good health? He says he reckons it jnst happened so, but my opiuion is tbat his early habits had mnch to do with it. For seven years he was "bound out," as we used to call it. Bound to a saddler and harness maker in New York oitv to l<>srn lh? trmln That used to bo common at tho north, I and I have known some cases of the south in the long ago, bnt not many. My father had nn orphan hoy hound to him for seven years, and the covenant was board and clothing and two months schooling every year and 8200 in money at the end of his time. He was smart, handsome and willing, and made a good merchant aod married well. Mr: Carnochan says ho had to work , diligently, and by the time his term was ont, the habit of work was fixed > npon him and kept him out of mischief. There is thd secret. Bnt few of onr boys have formed a habit of work. If they do auy at all, they look npon it as a hardship. The old man says that Aaron Burr i traded at their shop, and he remembers him well, a handsome, courtly old gen tleman dressed in tip top fashion and J with manners like Lord Chesterfield. Tears before he had been forced to - leave the country and lived in exile, 1 bnt he came back when the storm blew i over and he was snoh a great lawyer > that he soon got lots of practice and made lots of money. He drove fine norses ana was a nign-oorn aristocrat and never lost a minute's sleep about killing Hamilton, r * I was rnminating about that, for people1 cmgtit f to read it. His father's name was ? Aaron Burr, and he was a very learned and pious preacher and teacher. He ^ was founder and first president of ri Princeton colloge, and is buried there, ? and six other presidents nre buried noar him. He married Esther, the n only daughter of Jonnthan Edwards, the great preacher and profound u thinker. A man whoso sermons made *. the people trcmldo nnd cry out and 11 beg for mercy. The young Aaron had a sister named Esther, and these two 1- wero left orphans at an early t ago. >n Thoy had a good estate and the best c" guardians, and received a good cdu^ cation. Aaron was sent to Priueenl ton, where he graduated with dis" tinction. It was <xpected that he, too, would bo a preacher, but he sud tlonly astounded his friends by de3J|* pouncing Christianity as u humbug, |.'tlftnd declared his admiration for Lord irsChesterfield, whom, ho suid, was the ?r?puest gentleman in the world. Then '"j'to studied luw and soon become the miop of tho profession. Whon the rcvr,."*lutionary war was im]>unding he wos '"''^iven a high position and became an '^intimato of General Washington's family ; but he did not liko Washington's steady habits and religiom principles uml left hun. At tho close of the war he married a wealthy widow? a Mrs. Provost, oh accomplished and " pious Cnristian w< man. She becarno "1the mother < f Thor dosin, celebrated l^in her day f?>r her beauty and her gr?c< s of mind and heart, and nnivers"dtdlv Inun nte i f<-r her and and mysteriojdus fate. Her only child, ? eon, died when ho was hirteon years old, and njsbo herself was lost at sea but a few if weeks after, and no one ever heard of fithe vessel after it sailed from Charleston. There are many Htorioe about it H?it having been seized by pirates snd iTlieodosia, with other passengers, be- | ing made to walk tho iatul plunk that. ' dropped them into tho sea. Not long beforo this sad event Jlurr ' . lm<l forced Hamilton to fight ft duel ; " with liini, nnd killed him, not only -.without regret, but with unfeigned ; ' satisfaction. This put him uuder the ' ban, ftnd he had to fly to avoid arrest. ?'lle fled to Carolina, where his daughter ! 1 dived. She had married Joseph All- j ntton, one of South Carolina's beat eiti- i ttzeiiH, and who afterwards became gov- ! klernor of the atatc. u| liurr was tho vico president of the United States when lie killed JIamil-'j ir(ten. After this tie conooived a great ^political sehemo to found a limited 1 , monarchy in the southwest, with New .K Orleans us tho seat of government,and >r|lie was to he tho monarch. His trea- ' 11 i - : ? * ' - .houikuiu iici*ik?h were mscoverou,and ho ^iwhr arrested and tried and barely es\ienpcd conviction. Thendosia Raved him ,'t brougli tier pit adin^H, lo r devolion and "'her faBciiiHting hcautv. J'.ut such was tho public temper that lie'had to oxilo , Joins If and escaped to Paris, where ho *^11 veil for several years under tho as- j * sumed name of Aruot. When he dared i I to rcturu he resumed the practioe of law in New York, aud Boon became entangled in many scandals and intrigues. When be was seventy years olu he was still handsome and engaging, and so beguiled s French countess of great wealth that she married him. He wasted her money so lavishly that she separated from him in a short time and he was left penniless. His few friends abandoned him and he died degraded and disgraced at the age of four score years. In his last days he read the Bible anew?read and pondered, and with sadness and contrition said: "There is the most perfect system of truth the world has ever seen." What a life, what a record, what a wreck of great talents, all because he forsook the teachings of his noble Christian ancestors and became a scoffer, an infidel, a Chesterfield. What bitter memorios?what angnish he must have felt in his last days?his last hours, when he begged to be buried at Priucoton l>y the grave of his father. Verily, it seems like Providence followed him with an avenging band and heaped misery upon him all his lifo. And my old friend Carnochan saw that man and heurd him talk and felt magnotized by his presence?aud ho wns old euoiurh to vote for Jackson for pr?sident and sinoe then has voted for seventoen presidents. What a world of memories the old tuau has. Yon cau't alarm bim with fears of the nation going to ruin throngh the currency question. He has heard tho cry of ruin too long and too often. It makes him smile to heAr tho boys talk ruin now. It is the same old tocsin that pealed the alarm in Jackson's day, when tho United States bAnk was demonetized, and ho remembers that. It was a bigger fuss than this, be says, though thero wasn't so many pooplo nor so many newspapers to make it. The old man came south in his early manhood and rode on the first and only railroad of aDy length that had been built. Ho is a concordance, a chronology, an antiqnity. Thero are some older men, bnt not many who are as bright, as genial, aa conteuted. His long life of indnstry is an objeot lesson to tho rising generation, and I hope they will see it and think of it. He has done no big thing to give him fame or fortune, but he has fought a good fight and sot a good example. Peace to you, my old friend. May you keep on living until yon are tired and then depart in peace.?Bili Arf in Atlanta Constitution. SLAIN BY X LUNATIC.
