There was once, a man jwlio had a goldei. brain, yes, Madam, a golden brain. When he first saw the light the physicians declared that he could not live, that' his head was too heavy, too large. JInt Ik lived nevertheless, and grew in the sun shine like a fine young olive tree; only Id largo head threw liim for ward constantly, antl it was pitiful t j see him knocking himself against all. the -furniture as he walked, or ran about. lie often .fell.. One day lie--rolled from the , porch and went 1 ambling down the fly steps until he bumped against in.-marble floor, when his head g ic forth a peculiar metalie sound like a heavy piece of ore. They thought- he was dead, but when they had picked him up they found only a slighy.-i at h, with two or three tiny drops of gold clotted in his blonde hair. Thai was tho way they found out their son had a gol den brain. llj was kept a profound secret; the poor Jiftle one himself knew nothing nl' it, Every now and I hen 'he would ask his mother why she did not let him play any more with the other little boys in the street. "They would steal you, my darl ing." replied she. The .-child was ,i afraid of being stolen, so he returned to his solitary games without com' plaining, and dragged himself heavily .from room to room. 1.' was only w hen he w as eigh teen ears old that his parents re vealed to liim the fearful gift he, had received at his, birth ; and as they had. gone to a great deal of expense to bring him up and educate him, they asked him in return for a little, of his gold. The child did not hesitate; he immediately by' what means I he 'legend does not state plucked out from his head a piece of solid gold as luge as a walnut, aiid threw it proudly into his -mother l ip. I lien, dazzled by the wealth he carried in his head, wild w ith ill repressed desire, intoxicated with ins power, he left t he paternal tool and wandered through the world, squandering his treasure. .. ' - rioin the royal manner in which lie lived throwing away gold by liamlliiK one would have thought his brain inexhaustible. P,ut it was diminishing da'ily, and as it went his eyes became lustreless and his du-eks hollow. -Finally one da. Oil the iii.v.iiiig alter a wild orte. he sat a.loiie amidst the hixu-rion-iaii l . osrlv ib-bris of the least feebh nt b the dying glimmer of countless waxen tapers, he was hornticd to ib.seover the enormous breach he h a ljnade itj his treasure; it a litiie to sloji. From 1 hat day he began to. lead a new lite. The man with, the gol den bra in. was .as suspicious as a miser, and evei fearful, tied from temptation, and trying to forget the lata! riches, w hieli - he dared no longer touch; went far away to earn his livelihood b the work of his hands, riifortunately. a friend followed .him iutojtlu' solitude, and this friend knew; his secret. One night the poor "man .was awakened suddenly by a pain in his head, a frightful pain ; he rose dazetl and U'wrlde'red. and saw, fn the moonlight, his friend running aw ay, hiding something under his cloak. Another bit of his brain gone ! Shortly after, the man with t he golden brain fell in love," and this time it was all oveiAvith him. . lie lrved with heart and soul a prvfcry . little blonde, who liked him pretty well, but w ho liked velvets, and laces and dainty tassels dancing on her satin boots better still. The bits of gold fairly melted in the, hands of this pretty creature, who was a fascinating, perplexing riddle, half bird and aalf doll, lie gratified her least wish, her every caprice; he could never say no; ,e even coueealed the secret or his fortune from her to the end, fearing it her jpan ! iiW mnuf- lie very rich." she j would often say, and the poor man J always replied, 'Oh! yes very 'rich," smiling lovingly upon the I little blue bird so unconsciously j eating his life away. ! Sometimes, however, that liar-' ! rowing fear would return to him; i 7 then he would try to be economical ! then his littleblonde wife would come dancing lightly towards him "My dear, 3-011 know we are so wealthy, won't you please buy me something very, very expen sive!" and he would buy her some thing very very expensive. Things went on this way for two years; then one morning the little creature died, quietly, without any apparent cause like a bird. The treasure was almost gone. With what was left he determined to have a niagnificieut funeral. The continual tolling ofliells, the car riages heavily hung with crape, the horses covered with sombre trappings, the exquisite flowers, the velvet pall nothing was too hand some or too dear. What was the use of his gold to him now? He gave it away by handfuls, to the chureb, to the poor, to the under- takers, to everybody. So, when he left the cemetery, there was nothing left of the marvelous brain but a few bits of gold clinging to the skull. ' He wandered about the streets all day, with a bewildered air, and he reeled along, with his hands stretched '-out before him like a drunken man. In the evening, when the shop windows were lit, he stopped liefore a handsome showcase, where rich Istufl's and jewels sparkled in the light, and he reinuiued there a long tima looking at a pair of ex quisite little blue satin boots edged with swan's down. "I know some one who will like those boots," he said to himself, smiling, and for getting that his wife was dead, lie went into the bazaar. to buy them. From her seat, 111 the back par lor of the store, the shopwoman heard a cry; she ran quickly, and drew back with fright on seeing a man leaning heavily on the couu ter and lookinir at her with n vacant air. lie held in his hands a pair of little blue satin boots, edged with swans down, and held out the other before him it was covered with, blood, and there were scrappiiigs of gold on the nails. In spite of its fantastic air, the story is true from beginning, to end. There -are ) any people in the world who are condemned to live with their- golden brain, and let it go piecemeal, paying day by da , with their very heart's, blood, the price of the merest trifles of life. It is a long -suffering,, aug mented day by dav, and then wnen they are tired of enduring it-. . o, the story is too morbid.- I think L would Ite better to stop here. "Miss Favard ir, ISoston Journal." The Religions Card-Player. A private soldier by the name of liichurd Lee was taken before the magistrate of Glasgow,." Scotland, for playing cards during divine ser vice. For those who may not have already seeu it, the account otitis thus given in the English journah A sergeant commanded the soldiers at the church, and when the par sou had read the prayer he took the. text. Those who had Bibles took them out; but this soldier had neither Bible nor Common Prayer Look, and pulling out a 'pack of cards he spread them before him. He first looked at one card then at another. The sergeant of the com pany saw hint and said : "Uichard put up the cards ; this is no place for them.'' "Never mind that" said Uich aid. When the service was. over, the constable took Bichard prisoner, and brought liim before theMavor. "Well," said, the Mayor, "what have you brought the soldier here lor?" "For playing card's in church." "Well, soldier wlt.t have you to say for yourself?" "Much, sir, I hoie." f "Very good, .if,nor. I will'puuisn you severely." 'I have, been." ..said the soldier. "alMiut six weeks on the march. I have neither Bible nor Common Prayer Book, I have nothing but a pack of cards, and I Lope fla satisfy youv Worship to the pnritv of my intentions." . , ' . Then spreading the cards liefore the Mayor, he, bepn with the ace. "Whe.n l see tL ace,it reminds me that theiv is but one God. "When i r 1 lur ueuee, it reminds me of the Father-and Son. When 1 see thtray, it reminds me of the Fath er, Si and 1 loly (; host. When, I seethe four, it reminds me of the lour evangelists that preached Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. When I see th.vfive,it rominds me of the wise virgins, that trimmed their lamps; there were ten live were wise and live were foolish, and werA shut out. AVhen I see the six, it reminds ne that iu six days the Lord made- heaven and earth. When 1 see the seven, it re minds me thatu tbe seventh day Goil rested from the great work he had made and killowed it. When I see the eighty reminds me of the eight righteon persons who were saved when God destroyed the world viz : ;xoJ and his wire, his three sons aud their wives. Wheu i would grieve lier . and cause I see the nine, it reminds me of the nine lepers that, were cleansed by our Ha vionr. There were nine out of ten that never returned thanks. When I see the ten it reminds me of the, ten commandments which God handed down to Moses on the tables of stone. When I see the king it reminds me of the Great King of heaven, which is God Al mighty. When I see the queen, it reminds me of the queen of Sheba, who visited Solomon, for she was as wise a woman as lie was a man. She brought with her fifty lioys and fifty girls, all dressed in boy's appa rel, for King Solomon to tell which were boys and which were girls. The k;ng sent lor water for them to wash. The girls washed to the el bows, the boys to the wrist, soKing Solomon told by that." "Well," said the Mayor, "you have described every card in the pack except one." "What is that?" "The knave," said the Mayor. 'I will give your honor a descrip tion of that too, if you will not get angry." : "I wijl not." said the Mayor, ''if you do not term me to .lie. the knave." "The greatest knave I know of j is the constable w ho brought me here . "I do not know," said the Mayor, "if he is the greatest knave, but 1 know he is the greatest fool." "When I count how many spots there are in a pack of cards, I find 3C5, as many days as there are in a year. When I count the number of cards in a pack, I find 52 the number of weeks in a year. I find there are 12 picture cards in a pack, representing the number of months in a year, ami on counting the tricks I find 13 tJie number of weeks in a quarter, so vou see a pack of cards serve lor a Bible, an almanac and a Common Prayer rK)k." Taken for the Colonel. Colonel Fitz Wallace O'j)onovan was, certainly, a handsome-looking man, nndMie knew it, and his wife knew it. lie was a lion 111 society, lie was a leader of fashion!. He introduced the "O'Donovan Cra vat," and the "Fitz Wallace Shoul der Brace;"- and at the club they compounded the "O'Donovan Cocktail," and the "Fitz Wallace Julep." His wife introduced equal ly sounding fashions into female use. In the town," also and making his way into just such circles as pleased liim,: was the publisher, and editor of the "Daily Sledge Hammer" plain Wallace Dono van. Somebody one" of the uned ucated once asked Mrs. O'D. if her husband and the editor were iu any way related to one .'another..' The great- lady looked upon her questioner iu pitying sn prise. "Related? What! with the O'Donovan ! My dear Madam, the O'Donovans are descended directly from the O'Donovans of Tara's Hall ! .Those simple Donovans are nobodies.'' And that settled it. On a certain evening one of the nalHibs gave a bis: party ; and the ( Donovans were there', large as ' life. 'Late iii tire evening, after he i had got his paper to press, Wallace Donovan looked in, and made him-j self at home, 'By and by a lady, in his presence, remarked' upon the i appearance of the colonel;' who had! just parsed them. ! "I declare'-!" she snid, with con- , siderable animation, "t'olonel j O'Donovan is a .handsome man ! j .''And would von believe it ?'?' re- j turned the editor, ..laughingly. j "I have been taken for him twice." ! Mrs. O'D. chanced to be stand-J ing directly at his elliow at the mo- j ment, and overheard. j 'You vou taken for mv bus-1 Land !" she crieil with cutting dis dain. "What an idea ! You taken for the O'Donovan !" "Do not misunderstand me, Madam," returned the literary man, with, a polite bow. "You force me to explain.' It was not the simi larity of personal appearance that led to the error to which I allude; but the similarity of our names. That simple thing-was the- occasion of .mv leing twice arrested bt the sheriff, for debt! However, no great damage was done. I very quickly convinced him of his error, mil put him. on the right track ! 1 wish you a good evening, Madam.' ! It was said that the irate lady tried to .persuade her husband to ! call the man out ! But the O'D. was too wise to burn his fingers in ; in editorial fire, even had the! courage. In-eii his. PreacWng, Editing, and Farming. The saying of Horace (Jreidey, j that had never met a man who i did not think liitnsejf competent to run a farm., or newspaper, iu how ever many other things he micht have failed, is well known. It lie-; gins to look as if ' every one now.. thinks himself full v inennred t : lreach the gospel, judging from the advice heaped upon clergymen from ! all quVtres, and by.all sects of jieo-j pie, concerning the subjects upon! which they should preach ami the 'j topics they should pass 1 it is note worthy that the And ones 1 njost ready to give" direction to ministers are those who know very little, about the goser. and upou j whom its etlects, to say the last are not apparent. j The Champion Brme. i -'' .-;'' " i Indiana conies to the front witbJ the champion brute.

I wanted a fence, sur, to keep oder people' stock offen my truck, bet I forgot all de time dat de oder folks have got to keep der own stock too; yah, yah, yah !" It looked very strange to rae as I traveled along the hig road to ee the corn and cotton growing right close up to the edge of " the high way and no fence between. Good solid farmers told me that every body was sat isfied with the work ing of the new system. Timber is getting scarce in those old settled counties, and now they don't need it, except for fire wood. Well, I did see two or three farms protect ed on the side next to the road by a single barbed wire stretched along post about twenty feet apart Th is was to prevent the droves ol mules and beef cattle from straying on the growing crops. Bat wire is cheap now, only half a cent a foot, and a thousand feet cost only five dollars. We have been out voted twice here in Bartow and thsee times in Floyd. Now if we can get only a piece of the law we will do very well-if we can vote the hogs out we can get a long with the cattle, for a fence with two wires will keep the cattle out, and that won't cost half as much as rails. Small chestnut or post oak posts set twenty-five or thirty feet apart will make a good sup port, and two men can plant .them and stretch a thousand feet in a day. , .. , '".: ; The darkeys always vote solid against the nofence JawV They have very little interest in it, for inofct of them are tenants or hire lings, but they have. an j idea that it is a rich man's law, a Democrat ic law, and is going to hurt the nig ger in some way. And for a simi lar reason a good many poor white folks vote against it; ; .sorter like they felt about.thc Jate vax -that it was a rich man's war and i poor man's' fight. There is more or less jealousy everywhere between the poor and the rich. And that is the main reason why poor folks ; and niggers vote against prohibition of whiskey. It' is encroaching on their rights and priveleges. They say that a rich man can always get it law or no law. but a poor man can't. They wouldn't vote to abol ish snakes if a rich man '.was allow, ed to keep one in his backyard Mr. Nunnally says he finds that most everybody would vote to pro iiibit every body Irom ilrinking ex cept themselves. One J man said he would vote it out of every conn ty, and he would vote it out of all his pw a county except his district.
