Why. v
I cannot tell why God should send into
my life U t ,f
The bitter sweet,
Nor do I knowwhy toil and strife
My Jiopes defeat.
I knew not why this weary aching
My heart should feet;
1 1 only know, in dreams or waking,
Life seems so real.
I cannot tell why fond affection
should soon crow cold,
Or why the friends we love and cherish
Are quickly told.
I only know some hearts, are "trusting,
And fail to find
The love which knows no change or rust
ing
Pure gold, refined.
Ay, weary heart, wherever hidden,
In ago or youth.
Sad March comes to each unbidden;
But God is truth.
We know not why lib wisdom sendeth
Each sorrow down,
But patient, prayerful, calm endurance
Will win a crown.
Trusting henceforth His love and mercy,
Our hearts will cry;
Dear Father, send us hope and strength,
inou knowesi wny.

The Comet

morning with the rfaked eye, from 2
o'clock until dawn blots itj from view.
It is the comet discovered jby rabry at
Paris, France, on December 1st last.
With a telescope the comet is a beauti
ful object, with a tafl some five or six
degrees long, very slender ani neatly
shaped. A bright starlike nucleus
shines in the head and is surrounded
by a nebulous glow of light. 1A group
of small stars can be seen same dis

Duelists Can't Hold Office.
Mr. Richmond M. Pearson of Ashe-
viUeu4B0nietime ago published a circular
abusing his collenfirue in the Leirisla-
hire, Gen. Johnstone Jones, in regard
to the passiure of a Stock or No Fence
law for Buncombe county. Gen.
Jones recently reulied. showing that
Pearson was as much to blame for the
passage, of the law as he (Jones) was,
and aisrt showing that Pearson acted
deceitfully in the matter, &c. Where
upon, it is said, Pearson challenged
ones to a duel.
If Pearson sent the challenge, he has
cut himself off from ever again holding
a public ofbee m the state, and the law
hereafter will be strictly enforced. Ar
ticle XIV, Sec. 2, of the Constitution
of North Carolina, adopted March 10,
1S0S. says:
"No person shall hereafter fight a
duel, or assist in the snme as a second,
or send, accept, or knowingly carry a
challenge therefor, or agree to go out
of this btate to light a duel, shall not
hold any office in this State."
P. S. The Asheville Advance of the
28th says: "It is rumored that- the
challenge has been withdrawn, and that
friends of the parties are conferring to
gether with ti view to an amicable set
tlement of the matter.'' Char. Home-

Dueliing.
Extracts from Johnstone Jones' re
ply to Richmond Pearson.
Duelling is wrong in itself, a viola
tion of the commandment "Thou slmlt
do no murder." It is a violation of the
Constitution and laws of North Caro
lina. In my case to indulge in such
a practice would be a violation of the
oath I have taken to bear allegiance
to the constitution and laws of our
State. Being still a member of tbe
General Assembly I recognize the obli
gation resting upon me as such.
Aside from these views I cannot
recognize the method as a solution or
a cure of the grievance of which you
complain. Were you to kill me or I
to kill ou there would be no vindica
tion of courage, nor would it satisfy
your friends or mine or the public gen
erally that the cause of complaint was
just or unjust.
I regard the killing in a duel as de
liberate murder, so pronounced by the
highest authority, human and divine;
and to fight a duel, though death might
not result, both the sin and the viola
tion of tbe law have been committed.
W iiatever may be tne estimation m
which the practice of duelling is held
by uThe code duello,1' it is made an in
famous crime by the Code of North
Carolina.
The custom has become obsolete and
I think now generally regarded as both
ridiculous and farcical as well as un
lawful, aud if I now grant your request
I should feel myself to be a moral
coward worthy the severe condemna
tion of the lawJ and the contempt and
derision of the good and law abiding
- w
citizens.
Uccupymg the position l ao, as a
representative of the people I cannot
afford to commit a crime so plainly for
bidden by both the organic and statute
laws, nor set such an example of law
lessness.
It will Kill our Schools.

Ex-jrov. D. H. Chamberlain publishes
a letter in the New Y ork Evening Post
from a lawyer of Richmond, Ya., who
is "highly honored and widely knowu,
in which he speaks plainly and decided
ly as to a measure that has just been
overslaughed in committee. He says:
"The Blair bill is monstrum horren
dem, but the Virginia Solous, at Wash
ington and here, support it. Both
parties a plague on both your houses
resolve for it. All the same it is full
of evil to schools and all. It is as much
in the teeth of the Constitution as the
Kentucky resolutions of 1798. Shades
of Marshall and Madison! Virginians,
Democrats, ready to vote for it. God
help us! But, if possible, its un
constitutionality is . its least fault. It
will kill our schools and kill our educa
tional spirit. Woe to us if it
passes! It may pass Congress, but I do
not believe it will pass Cleveland."
Indians on the War Path.
Nogales, Arizona, April 28. About
forty Apaches passed up Santa Cruez
valley early this morning, killing sev
eral Mexicans and one American.
They passed Colabassas at about seven
o'clock this morning. In answer to a
call for help, about forty volunteers,
well armed, left on a special train for
Colab.issis. Scouting parties were or
ganized and the hostiles were discover
ed in camp about two miles north of
Colabassas. A second train load of vol-
'unteers left at 10 o clock, and word
was soon received that the Indians were
being "corralled" and would be held
for the arrival of troops.
At noon a detachment of the tenth
cavalry, under command of Capt. Lebo,
passed here for the scene. A company
of cavalrv also pstssed Crittenden about
11 o'clock, going in the direction of
Colabassas. A third train has left here
with soprdies. There has been intense
excitement in town all day and business
is practically suspended.

The Blair Educational Bill, as well
as the Willis Bill, diedfc among ife
friends in the House of Representatives
this week, and the mourners are' now
"going abont the streets" and capitol
building with very few sympathizers.
The friends of thelair Bill need not
mourn, for if the thing had become a
law with all its outrageous provisions,
a firm and influential demand would
have been made on the next Legisla
ture to cut down the school tax to one
half its present rate, say to about $250,
000, so that, wih the aid of the Blair
fund, the school money in this State
would not amount to more than it is
now, about 8500,000 or $600,000. Let

"Uncle Stead'' is what they called a
shrewd old gentleman who used to live
in Winthrop, a little way outDf the
village, up the side of the pond, near
Keadtield. 0u of his fellow citizens
was a man named Lovejoy. Uncle
Stead met Lovejoy in the village one
day, and he said to him: "Lovejoy,
there's a poor, woman lives out on tne
edge of town that needs some provis
ions. I'm willing to supply her, but
I've so'd my horse and have no- meat s
of getting the stuff to her. Now I'll
buy her a barrel of flour and a ham
and some other supplies if youH carry
them out to her with your team. '
Lovejoy said certainly, he'd lie very
glad to do it. Accordingly, Uncle
Stead bought a barrel of flour, a ham,
a bucket of sugar, etc., and telling
Lovejoy where the woman lived, sent
him off on the errand of charity with
the good things in his pong.
Lovejoy easily found the house where
the woman lived. He unloaded tue
goods, puffing like a grampus as he
rolled the barrel of flour in and said to
the woman: "Mr. Steadman sent you
the provisions. He's a mighty kind
hearted man to send you an these
things."
"Well, I don't know why he
shouldn't send them to' me!" exclaimed
the woman in surprised accents.

'Before him stood a host of ex-Confederates,
who still believing their cause
w.is just, were glad to hail their old

Some of which are as follows:
Bavin.- enlarged wheels it lias quite an
ea.ii draft. The wciirht has been reduced
several hundred pounds.
A lead wheel in front of the shoe carrits
the weight ot the cutter bar and prevents
anv tendency to choke with loose rass
The lead wheel forms a perfect protection
la the pitman and can be set higher or
lower, as may oe required in bottom or
stony lands, where often a change from the
ordinary cut is very desirable.
Another important feature in thin Mower
is that the etittinir apparatus is kept in
strict line with the pitman, so that any
friction or inndin is rendered impossible
This is a weak point in most mowers, and
very often overlooked in purchaHin
though the defect reveals itself by use.

CRAwrouuvrLE, Ga., July 15, 1885.
Editor Democrat :-For the past ten jeara
I have been sufTerinp with rheumatism in
the muscles of my rijfht shoulder and neck.
During this tiuie I have tried various rem-,
edict, lotli patent medicine and those .pre
scribed by physieiun. Last v summer I
commenced ufin B. IL B.. and could see
an improvement by the time I had taken
one bottle. I hate been taking it at inter
vals since last summer, and an say it is
the best medicine for rheumatism I havn
ever tried. I take pleasure in ft-commcd-ing
it to the pubhe.
J. W. RHODES, A. M., If. D,
Chawfohdv illh, Ga., July 15, 1885.
Editor Democrat : About November oP
last year 1 had what I supposed to he a
cauliflower exi-rrsccnre on ri lit side of
neck. I used local applications, which
effected no percept ible good. I rommenced
the use of B. B. B. and took it regularly
twelve-botths, and in due time the sore
healed over, and now consider it well. I
cheelully recoinmcd it as a fine tonic and
alterative medicine.

"Meal Bag on a Bean Pole."
Elbrtctox, G a, June I, 1885.
My brother has a sou that was afflicted
with rheumatism in one of his legs until
the knee a so badly coatracted that he
could not touch rhe urouad with his heel.
and had scrofula. He took ouly two bot
tles of B. B. B., and scrofula and rheuma -
t ism arc both eronc.
Mrs.; M A. Elrod came to my house the
past summer almost covered with carbunc
les and boils. I got two' hot ties of B. M.
and before she had pot through with the
second bottle the was entirely well. She
was also troubled witb-swolen feet and
ankles, and have been for twenty year. All
cone no more trouble with swolen feet
now.
I was troubled with bleeding pHcs since
1858. I nsed one bottle, and have felt
nothing ot the kind since taking the medi
cine. The clothing that I was wearing
when I left Atlanta fitted me alrfwt the
same as a meal sack would a bian pole I
have on the same clothing now, and they
are a tiAt fit.
L Von can do as you like with fills; r.t for
me and my household, wc- hmk thru B's
is fully orthodox, and will o to swear bj.
Respectfully yours,
