A Colored Justice of the Peace Who Preaches immorality, Revolution and Murder. Savannah, Ga., July 25.—A sher- iff posse has left Waltbourville to arrest Edward James, the colored justice of the peace who is being worshiped as the Christ by a mob of 500 negroes, and who lately is urging the offering up of human lives in sacrifices. « When Dupont Bell, the first pretended Christ, was committed to the insane asylum, James proclaimed that the spirit of the imprisoned Christ has passed into him, and Bell’s followers imme- diately accepted James’. claim as true. Since then James has been preaching revolution and immorality with a boldness that is startling the whites. He boasts of a score of con- cubines end says that every man is entitled toa harem. His followers are also obeying his order to throw their money into a box which he keeps with him. As a result of James’ preaching Andrew Roberts, a colored boy 8 years old, was killed as a sacrifice last Wednesday by his aunt. in whose care he had been left. James’ followers have also beaten almost to death several ne- groes whom James declared were possessed of evil spirits. Do You Suffer From Rheumatism. Noone who has not been sufferer can have any idea of the excrutiating agony caused by rheumatism. This painful disease is trequently caused by a stop- pnge of the circulation of the blood, through the muscular portions of the body. BALLARD’S SNOW LINI- MENT will invariably cure this disease by penetrating every spot of the skin and drawing to the outer surtace all poison- ous matter and restoring a uatural circu- lation of the blood.

Nashville, Tenn., July 23 --Infor- mation has just been received at Knoxville that Mrs. Hattie Gibson Heron, wife of Dr. David Heron, late of Jonesboro, this state, is un- der sentence of Geath in Corea for teaching the doctrines of christian ity. Rev. David Heron is well known as a Presbyterian minister Three years ago he led Miss Hattie Gibson, of Joneboro, to the altar. He had just been ardered to Corea by the Presbyterian board of mis- sions. The wife joined her husband and the two sailed from San Fran- cisco a few weeks after their mar- riage. Mrs. Heron preached the gospel as well as her husband, and was the means of converting a noble- man in Corea, who began preaching christianity. The emperorhad Mrs. Heron arrested and throwninto pris- on. Her case was investigated, and finally the sentence of death was passed. Mrs. Heron was known as the most beautiful lady in upper east Tennessee. Her father died about a year ago. He was one of best known citizens of Washing- ton county. Is Consumption Incurable?

Warranted. | Sold by W. J. Lansdown, Druggist, But- ler, Mo. . Ihad often observed, through the public gardens, a very beautiful girl seated on one of the benches reading. She was invaria- bly accompanied by an old servant, who watched over her mistress with a tender solicitude. But the young lady never smiled and her face neve er lost for a-moment its ‘melancholy expression. In time I made the acquaitance of the old serving maid, and she consented to tell me one day the story of her little mistress. “You may have heard,” she began “of the Count de La Valettee, who was such a devoted adherent of Napolean. This young lady was his daughter. After the emperor was sent to island of Elba the count was imprisoned by Louis XVIII., and condemned to death.” “His wife formed a plan of rescu- ing him from prison. She was to wear on her next visit two dresses, and he could put on one in his cell, and as they were of the same heigtt the plan seemed feasable. As she explained— “He will moreover shorten hin- self by leaning on your shoulda, and my daughter will support his arm on her shoulder. Thus, with the large bonnet, no one will sus- pect who he is. For myself up in bed and hide there as long as I can. The sedan chair will be met bya cabriolet, and the good Englishman, Sir.

Meanwhile, dear and faithful friend, care for my | Uut of Bondage. i | Sample bottle free at | daughter; return to the convent and let the good nuns know when I shall send you word to join us.” “So my mistress spoke to me, and having also instructed mademoiselle she got into the sedan chair which we followed on foot, and at 5 o’clock we stood at the gates of the Con- ciergerie prison.” “They admitted us, the pockets of our dresses were examined as usual. My lady was even then already over- whelmed with grief and appearently very ill, And the doors of the cell opened and closes upon us. “There was pity on the face of the man who attended us. and he per- mitted the husband and wife a few more minutes than usual for their farewells and lamentations. “We made good use of these mo- ments. We dressed my master in his wife’s clothes, and indeed he re- sembled her closely when they were assumed. “She protested tohim that friends had promised to protect her, and taat she was im no danger. If he died she protested she would kill herself. Therefore refusal was equivalent to her murder. In a mo- ment she threw herself on the bed and covered herself with the cloth- es. | “Adieu,” said my master in his deep voice. “We sobbed togethr. “Ready?” asked the jailor, turning his head aside. “We proceeded on our way. I led my master through the halls of | the Palais de Justice, past the post | of the grendarmerie. At the gate a delay occurred. The porters were away. I trembled with horror. | “Madame will die here,” | I said | in explanation of my unusual excite- | ment. | “We then placed our fainting fig- jureina sedan chair.

She did not know me. She thought her husband dead, and other wild fancies filled her brain: too terrible to be recorded. So she still lives, nor will she ever be aught else than mad until heaven merci- fully takes her to itself. ‘As for mademoiselle, the nuns dared not keep her in their school, for so cruel were those who hated the friends of Bonaparte that they refused to allow their children to at- tend the same school with this poor child. “One day I took her to her father.

Among the passengers were Li Ching Fong,son of the Chi- nese premier; Hung Giang and Chew Shu Yui, Chinese coisul-general at Cuba. A recent fire at Lnchow burned 23 hours, destroying 78,000 dwell- ings. Over 1,200 pesons perished in the flames and 40) others were killed. Nearly 170,00 people were obliged to camp out rithout shelter and were dying at the rate of 100 a day from want and aposure. The authorities are proviling for their necessities. Rev. J. Crosslet, prominent in missionary and benevdent work in China, died June 21, on shipboard between Shanghai andTientsin. The Fourth of July ras celebrated at Yokohoma, Japan.

The business of newpaper adver- tising has been in a prowess of evo- lution from the beginning until now, and this process is still continuing. At the commencement aly a few of the smallest and shortest advertise- ments were published—such as wants, rewards for runaway slaves, ships sailing and the like. The prices paid for these insertions were merely nominal. Make a bold and impetuous jump from the eight by ten colonial sheet with its little in- signficant attempts at advertising to the remarkable New York Herald that charged and received for a col- umn advertisement on its fifth page $109,500 for one year. The Herald has published in its Sunday edition as many as five thousand advertise- ments in one issue,—and what the Herald did ten years ago other jour- nals are far exceeding to-day. Not | unfrequently a single advertiser has been known to make contracts for over half a million dollars in adver- tising ina year. The career of the World of New York, Public Ledger of Philadelphia, Chicago Tribune, Chicago News is astounding. Said Mr. Dextrell, the great banker, who held an interest in the Public Ledger: “T thought I knew what it was to make money in banking business, 'but that business is insignificant indeed compared to the Public Ledger business.” Geo.

An application fo a change of ven- ueon the account ofthe deep feeling accused manifested by the attempsto lynch him, was refused by the court. Meantime a subpona was sent to Mrs. Cooper, the widow of the mur- dered man, whose grief was not yet healed. Upon receiving it she appeared to be stricken with horror, and exclaimed: “I'd rather die than face the murderer of my husband,” she rushed into the yard and threw herself into a cistern. Help was at hand immediately and her head kept above water until she could be taken out, but she was uncounscious and there are fearsthat her reason will leave her. The Philadelphia Ledger finds that Shakespeare knew something about civil service. It says: “All the talk about Tanner having to go is idle gossip. We have the author- ity o! Shakespeare that ‘a Tanner will make you last nine years.” By inference this makes Harrison good for another term. But poets never were good politicians. The Earl of Fife who is to marry the daughter of the Prince of Wales has an income of abort half a mil- lion a year. And yetthe prince de- clares that the marrisge is purely a matter of affection, for which he is very glad. Sam Wah Kee,a Boston China- man, is worth $100000. He made it in this country.in dealing in Chinese goods. Now he wants to take his money with him to “the land of the Celestials,” where he can live as a grandee. Hugh O. Pentecost thinks there should bea revolution in this coun- try oncein every ten years. The general sentiment seems to need some of qualification. Sam Jones is preaching at the High Bridge camp grounds in Ken- tucky, where he is said to be making more money than ever before. It costs a quarter to hear him, and he has crowds of auditors. All attempts to rule the weather out of conversation fails. How much the ordinary dialogue would be abbreviated if there should be no weather. The Indianopolis News says: “New York spells sentiment—$sentiment.” That is true. Greed is its god. Mammon was never more complete- ly in any city. It is stated that atthe rate the population is leaving Norway for the United States in next fifteen years not one will be left in that land. ed with his typewriter.
