It is quite common to read in the memoirs of successful business or professional men, particularly those who have been the architects of their own fortune, that they were born and bred upon a farm. It is usually assumed also that their success has been due in part to the physical strength and hili state of health developed by a life of toil in the open air. This is no doubt a factor in nttiti the country-bred youth for an active career in business, but it is not the most important factor. The training which a farm lad re ceives, quite unconsciously, is very useful in preparing him for a suc cessful career in business. He lias to labor hard and almost unceasingly until work becomes a matter of course. He is trained to patience, for months must elapse before the results of his labor can be seen in the harvest. lie is inspired by faith and hope through his experiences. The small return for his labor and the uncertainty of crops tend to make him frugal and of a saving disposi tion. W lth such train in r and a srreat store of vitality the country lad is well fitted to succeed in business or other undertakings. He may not think of any of these things, but his habits have been formed upon right lines. He is not afraid of work, but goes about it methodically; he is not impatient when the daily drudgery brings no sign of advancement, for he lias become accustomed to sowing long before the day of harvest; lie is hoP-'fl11 and frugal and saving, tg sut h a 111:111 success in some de- gree istolerablv sure to come, for . . . ..... he is a jrood cmplove, anil w ith Ins .'emus tor eeMKiuv lie soon aci uii-es canital. which enables him to start out for himself. City-bred young men, as well as country lads, suc ceed, but their environment is not as favorable to the development of in dustry, patience and frugality ex cent when attention is iriven to their training. The bov upon a farm does , not nnoreciate the advantages he I eniovs; hence his desire ambition to enter the larger life of the city, but he does enjoy advantages in a kind of training which, unknown to himself, prepares him for the keen c im petition of business life in a great citv. Shakespeare humorously touch es o!T the different aspects of life in the country when he makes Touch stone reply to an inquiry as to how he likes a shepherd's life: Truly shepherd in respect to itself, it is a good life, but in respect that it is a shepherd's life, it is naught. In respect that it is solitary, I like it verv well; but in respect that it is private, it is a very vile life. Now in respect it is in the fields, it pleaseth me well; but in respect it is not in the court, it is tedious. As it is a spare life, look you, it fits my humor well; but as there is no more plenty in it, it goes much against my stomach. " There is philosophy as well as humor in this passage, for any situa tion of life has its advantages along with its advantages along with its disadvantages. The" country lad, bred to daily toil, and poorly remun erated, sometimes seems to be at a disadvantage compared with the well-cared-for city youth, whose cverv want is provided for; but it is the harvest that tells the real story of the seed time of preparation, and the harvest for the country lad may be vastly richer than for his city cousin, owing to the advantages he enjoys of training in industry, pa tience and frugality. If disposed to be dissatisfied with it he should bor row some of Touchstone's philoso phy, and consider its good as well as its evil aspects. Sententious Saying.

Physiognomy is a real science and well worthy of study in the schools. We look at a stranger and form an opinion of him instantly by a casual inspection of his features, and yet we not know whether it is his eyes or nose or mouth or chin or forehead that impressed us; we know that the eyes is the index of the soul, the spiritual emotions and the brow is the measure of the intellect. There is the acquisitive nose and the light ing chin and the eloquent lips and the large, generous ears, but when we meet a man we have not known, we do not stop to inspect either of these features, but a glance at the whole combination makes up our verdict. I was ruminating about this the other day while travelling from Cov ington to Eaton ton. A gentleman on the opposite side of the car in terested me because I saw at a glance he outmeasured the average man. lie was quite large in frame and his head and chest were mas sive. His hair and beard were thick, coarse and slightly silvered. He had on a black silk traveling cap and wore a white handkerchief care lessly thrown around his neck, lie was reading a little book at his lei sure with an occasional glance at the fields and farms that seemed to be Hying behind us as the train sped on its winding way. I knew that he was an intelligent, cultured man, and possessed much force and vigor mentally and physically, but how did I know? He is a preacher or a teacher or perhaps a judge, thought I, but if I could see the book that he is reading I could tell. Ily and by he laid the little book on the seat and walked to the rear end of the car and looked out. I too got up and took a glance at the little book. 1 1 was a history of the Vanderbilt university my doubts were re moved. 1 had never met - Dr. How man, the new president of Emory college, but I was sure this was he. Without hesitation I introduced my self, and we had pleasant inter courses until we separated at Eaton ton, and he journeyed on to Milledge ville. I am sure that he is a gen tleman and a scholar, and will make a worthy successor to Dr. Candler. The books that a man or a woman reads are a good index not only of ll'l,'r profession but ot their cliar- acter. I wouldent give a nickle for a young man or a young girl who reads nothing but modern trash, and takes no pleasure in the grand 1 literature of the past centuries. How many college graduates, male or fe- male, in Jeorgia have read Coleridge, Word worth, ; ray, Tom Hood, Camp- ue" Cowper, Hums. Charles Lamb, j Addison, Goldsmith, Dr. Johnson or even Shakespear? How many have shed delicious tears over Genieve and the Hermit, and Tarn O'Shan ter? How many can repeat a single verse of Gray's Elegy? Since the passing of Longfellow and Fitz Green Ilalleck and Bryant, who are our modern poets? What novelists have succeeded Dickens, Thackeray, Cooper and Hawthorne? Hut I was journeying to Katonton, old classic Katonton, the county seat of rutman, one of Georgia's historic counties, where many of her great men used to live. Half a cen tury ago these great men llecked the country with their autocratic pres ence and their aristocratic mansions. The Shorters, Holts, Lamars, Xa piers, Abercrombies, Turners, Tripps, Ileitis, Meri wethers, Bran bams and Coopers have passed away, but the landmarks, the old mansions with their tall, fluted columns and stately groves- have been well pre served. I was a guest in the spaci ous house where my college mate, Hilly Keid, lived some fifty years ago. ine nan is eiguteen icet wiuc and the rooms twenty-live feet square. The flute columns are three and one-half inches in diameter at the base and thirty feet high and have been standing for sixty years. Good, amiable Hilly Ueid! Hw we all loved him. Hut fortune did not favor him and his life was not a suc cess. Katonton is one of the old towns in middle Georgia that has lived atul almost died several times, but is now on the upgrade and boasts of her waterworks and her electric lights and her new handsome churches, It is a town of settled trade, settled religion and settled politics. The habits and the customs of the people have not changed much since the war. Twenty years ago there a few gentlemen of easy fortune and dignified leisure who gathered in the piazza of the hotel in the afternoon and talked over the latest news, there is .mother set who do the same thin'g now. I like these country villages and can afford to do that that are not in a hurry to pass their lives away and are not crazy after the almighty dollar. Solomon says that "in leisure there is wisdom," and so these gentlemen become the oracles of the community. If the reverse be true and there is no wis dom where there is no leisure, At lanta must have a population of 100, 00, mostly fools. I visited the can ning factory that is now busy put ting up peaches for the army and is making hay while the sun shines, for peach time will soon be over and the war, too, and then the factory will shut down until next summer. Canning fruit and vegetables is about the most simple business I know of. It requires no skill, no genius, no experience. Anybody can do it. About four white men and twenty negroes run this one and the pay roll is only .S0 a week. I counted seventeen wagons un loading or waiting for their turn to unload their fruit. Their contends varied greatly, both in quality and quantity of the fruit and they got from 2.") cents to 4'J cents a bushel. The output is about :5,000cans a day, but I did not find out how much money it brought. The owner say he is going to build a crate factory for the next year peach crop. When I expressed my fear that timber could not be found I was told that Judge Lawson had 1,700 acres of sweet gum forest in one body and that would run a factory for many years. Hut I never saw an' forest of any kind as I journeyed to Katon ton. I saw nothing save cotton cotton fields after fields with here and there at magnificent distances a few acres of pines young pines that had succeeded the old oaken forests and were now carefully pre served for special uses. There is aa increased acreage of cotton all over this beautiful undulating region and it betokens a most bountiful crop. How kind these farmers are to us. We get our cotton goods now for almost nothing, but the farmers sympathize with our poverty and in tend to make them cheaper still. I did not mention Katonton as the home of Joel Chandler Harris in his boyhood but I did not forget him. The Katonton people won't let you forget l.'ni. They hve him and are proud of him. Mr. Denham told me that he got a whipping once for im posing on Harris and he was glad of it, for he deserved it. Said he: l-I was going to school to a Mr. Turn well and J"c! had to pass our way every day on Lis way to ins work-. He didn't seem to care a darn about us boys and so one da' we waylaid him and pelted him with acorns. The ground was covered with big acrons and we gathered them by the hatful and pocketful, and charged on the little red headed rascal. He showed fight for awhile, but soon broke down and ran like a turkey. We never did find out who told on us, but he didn't and the next morning our teacher gave us a lecture about our bad conduct in imposing on that poor little boy. and he gave all three of us I a good licking. Long after that I i felt like I ought to. apologize to Joel, j rec kon that honors are about easy. Hut I missed the Hranhams. Alas! how many changes old anno domini brings about in a few brief years. When I last visited Katonton Dr. Hich Hranham was preaching there, and his younger brother was teach ing there, and I was their honored guest. The Hranhams had been con spicuous figures in Putnam county for seventy-five years, but now there are nothing but graves and marble slabs and monuments to preserve the name from oblivion. Here, too, was the home of Mark A. Cooper for many years, lie was a grand man, a pioneer in Georgia's progress in manufacturing and agriculture. He it was who induced the formation of the State Agricultural Society and was its first president and his name deserves a place and a tablet in our capitol. With many regrets I departed from Katonton and found my traveling companion the same Dr. Dowman, who greeted me with a cordial wel come. I love to travel with such men I abroad, tor l icei nue i roviuence win take c are of them and I, tot), will be safe. Nor can I forget the exceed ing kindness of my hostess, Mrs. Rainey, and her little boy, who chap eroned me, nor the many kind cour tesies of Mr. Heese and Mr. Adams, of The Messenger. They are gentle men by nature and couldent be other wise. Hu.i. Ari A Thief lit liitid the Bars. The professional thief, Hen Tuck er, who some time ago, robbed a num- h)er 0f country merchants in Anson COuntv of small amounts by threat- ening to shoot them and in one in stance fired at one of his victims, is now behind the bars in the county Ahout one mouth ago my child, w hich is fifteen months old, had an attack of ili.trrhoea accompanied lv vomiting. I ":ive it such remedies as are usually .riven in such eases, hut as nothing gave relief, we sent fur a physician and it was under hw care for a week. At this time the child had been sick for about ten .lays an.l was having about twenty-five operations of the bowels every twelve hours, an.l we. were convinced that un less it soon obtained relief it would not live. Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Di'irrhoca Keme.ly was recommended, and I decided to try it. I soon noticed a change for the better: by its continued use a complete cure was brought about and it is now perfectly healthy. C. L. liouos. Stuniplown. Cilmer Co., W. Y:i. lor sale by M. K.

The yellow fever has appeared at Franklin, La. Ambassador Hay has accepted the office of Secretary of State. The receipts of Klondike gold at the government assay office at Seat tle, aggregated 2,120,000 in value. The order suspending mail com munications between the United States and Spain has been discon tinued. During a recent voyage of the Siberia Convict ship Augaria, 31 out of f00 prisoners died from suffoca tion and over crowding. A mosquito bite caused the death of Miss Aslang Larsen, a profession al nurse of New York, at Mystic, Coun., a few days since. Seventeen persons were drowned a few days ago in Tennessee by a cloud burst, property destroyed and hundreds rendered homeless. Miss Margaret Fallon, said to be one hundred and seventeen years old, was buried recently at King's Ferry, Cayuga county, N. Y. A heavily-laden row boat was up set in the Potomac river, uear Wash ington, by the frolic of two of its passengers, and three young men were drowned. The I51ack Diamond Coal Company of Knoxville Tenn. operating mines in the Jellico district has gone into the hands of a receiver, liabilities $105,000; assets, $22,000. . The Spanish spy released from Fort McPherson fell into the hands of some half drunken soldiers and received several ugly wounds. The town authorities are now caring for him. Hear Admiral Win. A. Kirland commander of the Mare Island Navy Yard is dead. He was a native North Carolinian and senior officer of the Navy, having entered the service in 1S.")0. Last Friday near Selma Ala., Alex Walker, a negro, died from a whip ping received by a party of unknown white men. The negro has been very troublesome in the neighbor hood. Oa August 20th the two large hotels, the National and the Windsor at Hot Springs Ark., were totally burned, together with six people. Many others were killed and injured by jumping from the buildings. Mt. Vesuvius near Naples is again burning. The lava is llowing down its sides at the rate of four hundred yards per hour. Kx plosions are fre quently heard in the central crater, from which can be seen smoke and flames. Guard Charles M. Caste, of the Life-saving Station on Sullivan's Island, S. C, was drowned Saturday while attempting to save young Kd ward Schachte, who had ventured out boyond his depth. Schachte was saved by others. The coal mines lockout at Paua, 111., culminated recently in a serious shooting affray. It is reported that two non-union men fired upon a body of union men without provocation, seriously wounding one union man and slightly wounding another. The discovery that England has made an unlimited contract with the Pocahuntas Coal Company for sev eral hundred thousand tons of coal to be shipped to her different coaling stations throughout the world has caused a sensation and confirmed the opinion that she is preparing for war. The sloop yacht Leona, with seven teen men aboard, while anchored outside the Boston light, was run in to by a barge in tow of the tug Henry Brook, and five men were swept from the deck by the heavy tow line. Two of the numbered were drowned, another was killed by being jammed to death between the tow- line and the deck. On the night of the KUh inst. in Sumter county, Ga., Mrs. McGarrah and her son were murdered in their beds by a negro with an ax. The fiend then outraged a negro woman, tied her to a tree and terribly muti lated her, she lived long enough to tell the name of the negro. He was hunted for throughout the surround ing country, caught and lynched. Items of War News. General Merritt has cabled the War Department of the United States that the cable to Manila is now in working order. A Lighter with soldiers on board sinks in the harbor of Santi ago. No one was drowned but quite an exciting strugle for life resulted. The Vatican asserts, despite re ports to the contrary, that the recent illness of the Pope was a merely transitory indisposition from which he has entirely recovered. General Shafter has iu formed the War Department that no more troops will be needed to preserve order at Santiago. Three other ship loads of Spanish soldiers left there a few days since earring about G,oo0 including officers, women and chil dren back to Spain. ' The Army in Time of l'eace. There seems to be some miscon ception on the part of many of those who discuss the disposition of the army after peace of the legislation under which the volunteer army was brought into being. It is argued that because enlistments are for a term of two years, the army will be retained in its present status for at least that length of time. No such mistake would be made if the letter of the law were studied. On the contrary, the volunteer act is explicit in its declaration that im mediately upon peace being secured the army must resolve itself back to its old peace basis; and, indeed, it looks as if there must be a stretch ing of the text to warrant the reten tion of so many of the volunteers as are manifestly necessary for giving adequate garrisons to our new pos sessions during the time that things are being straightened out. The fourth section of the law en acted by congress and approved April 22d declares that ''the volun teer army shall be maintained only during the existence of war, or while war is imminent." There is cer tainly nothing in that declaration which leaves it optional with the president or anybody else. "Only during the existence of war or while war is imminent" the latter clause, of course, designed to cover the pe riod preceeding the actual declara tion of hostilities, if there should be any such period. There is added a proviso under which it is argued, there is given au thority for the retention of such of the volunteer forces as the president and war department authorities may desire. This is: "Provided that all enlistments for the volunteer army shall be for the term of two years unless sooner terminated, and that all offices and men composing said army shall have been accomplished, or on the conclusion of hostilities." While this proviso is not altogeth er clear, theintent of the law-makers seems to have been to provide in as distinct terms as possible against the retention of any of the volun teers after the termination of hostil ities, and there is no provision, therefore, for holding these troops to garrison the newly acquired terri tory or to do police duty in Cuba. If the letter of the law is obeyed, the army immediately upon the declara tion of peace will resolve itself back to its peace basis of twenty-five thousand men. It is understood to be the policy of the president to reduce the size of the army just as soon as he can con veniently do so and without waiting for the formal signing of the treaty or peace; iut lie win retain a lorce of perhaps one hundred thousand for the present, and congress will lie asked to authorize the temporary in crease of the standing army to that extent. Republicans have been as in sistent as Democrats in their declara tions against the permanent increase of the standing army, but the admin istration will argue the need of one hundred thousand troops, and there is little doubt that congress will en act the legislation asked. How long such an army will be maintained is a problem for the future to determine. Paris Imposition of ltMM). The near approach of the great ex position to be held at the French capital in l'.'OO is giving new impetus to the competition of the world's nations who expect to be represent ed on that occasion in peaceful ri valry. It would seem that the United States industries, despite ample official and tentative preparations on the part of the administration, have as yet hardly evinced sufficient ac tivity in this direction. The commissioner-general for the United States has just issued two important pamphlets, one presenting the gen eral classification and the other the rules anil regulations oi ine t ans Exposition. They may serve both as a guide and incentive to our man- faclurers and merchants, with a view of rendering the American exhibit worthy of a nation which has just emerged from a victorious war, whose principal results ought to re dound in larger extension of our commerce and a corresponding re vival of bo'h our trade and industry at home and abroad a gain which may be partially insured by a proper display of possibilities and resources at the coming international exposi tion. Mr. Ferdinand W. Peck, commissioner-general, whose headquarters are at Chicago, states that, ."owing to the limited time still available in which to select and arrange the ex hibits of the United States, it is his desire that the widest possible invitation be extended to the manu facturers and producers of the coun try to participate in this exposi tion." About t wo-thirds of the bread cast upon the waters isn't returnable. The outcome of baseball games and buckwheat cakes usually depends up on the batter.

The country people have long memories. The sheriff and tax collector of Swain county J. F. King has assign ed. Referring to Governor Russell, the Charlotte Observer says, "we sin- cerly believe he is a lunatic." Chas. E. Nelson, of Newbern, has been appointed storekeeper and gauger for the Fourth district. Eight deserters of the colored vol unteers at Fort Macon were captured Saturday in Newbern and sent back to the fort. The heavy rains caused a wreck at Gastonia, of a freight train last Saturday. Three tramps were seri ously injured. The John White Camp of the War ren county Confederate Veterans held their annual meeting last Satr urday. They were addessed by Col. Julian Carr who it is said made the sjeech of his life. The Populist of the Sixth Judical Convention have nominated A. J. Loftin, of Kinston, for Judge and M. C. Richardson, of Clinton, for solici tor, they did not endorse the repub lican nominee Lockey, of Wilming ton, as was expected. Ex-Congressman W. II. II. Cowles of Wilkesboro, X. C, and little son were bitten last Friday by a mad dog. They left immediately for New York to take the pasteur treatment. Col. Cowles was in command of 2nd North Carolina cavalry. Father Worth, State Treasurer, has entered suit against the bonds men of the late Deputy Treasurer E. S. Walton of Morganton to recover the amount of loss to the State in volved in the failure of the Piedmont Hank. It is the opinion at Morgan ton that there is no good ground for the suit. Saturday the contract for build ing a dormitory for the negro deaf mute and blind institution was awarded to J. D. Elliott, of Hickory, for $11,500. The dormitory, and aUo the industrial building, will be on the lot in front of the institution, which lot has for years been used ts a garden. A telegram to Lieut. Christian, the only recruiting officer of the First Regiment now in the State, instructs him to remain here until he secures 8 musicians for the regimental band. The regiment with this exception is full. Lieut. Christian has sent it 151 recruits. He says bandsmen aie very hard to get. Raleigh Post. Eighty convicts are now at work on the Raleigh and Cape Fear Rail way and President John A. Mills in forms Superintendent Mewborne of the penitentiary that the grading of the sixteen miles of road embraced in the present contract will be com pleted by September 15. The con victs are now building the bridge across Middle Creek. The Result of Wring: the Negro Ofllce. The following is an abstract from an article appearing a few days since in The Daily Record a paper publish ed by a negro in Wilmington, N. C, "Poor white men are careless ir the matter of protecti ng their women Especially on the farms, lhey are careless of their conduct toward them, and our experience among poor white people in the country teaches us that women of that race are not more particular in the matter of clandestine meetings with colored men, than are the white man with colored women. Meetings of this kind go on for some time until the woman's infatuation or the man's boldness, bring attention to them and the man is lynched for rape Every negro lynched is called a 'bi burley, black brute,' when, in fact many of those who have thus been dealt with had white men for their fathers, and were not only 'black and 'burley,' but were sufficiently at tractive for white girls of culture and refinement to fall in love with them, as is very well known to all." White men what do you think of such lying, malicious slanderous article as this, coming too from the home city of Gov. Russell.
