THE DATLY BrlAZE---:(i)MATI:’\E{URSDAY, DECEMBER 21 TRUE Temperance Is not signing a pledge or taking a solemn oath that cannot be kept, because of the non-removal of the cause —liquor. Thewaytomake a man temperate is to kill the desire for those dreadful artificial stimulants that car- ry so many bright intellects to premature ggaves, and desolation, strif nd un- happiness into S0 many families. Ttisafact! BROWN'STRON BITTERS, atrue non-alcohol- ic tonic, made in Baltimore, Md., by the Brown Chemical Company, who are old drug gists and_in every p lar reliable, will, by ing the craving appetite the drunkard, and by curing the nervousness, weaknese, and general ill health result: ing from intemperance, do more to promote temperance, in the strictest sense than anyother means now known. It is a well authenticated fact that many medicines, especially‘bitters,’ are noth- ing butcheap whiskey vilely concocted for use in local option countries, Such is not the case with Brown's IroNBrrTeRs, Itisamedi- cine, a cure for weakness and decay in the nervous, muscular, and digestive or- gans of the body, produc- ing good, rich blomf health and strength.

One oolored brother hss a besket contalning a dozon eggs or & mess of beans; from the saddle of another a few chickens are dangling; while a third hasa bucket of plums on his arm, They are all ‘‘golng down-town on busi- ness,” they tell me, but none of it is sufficlently urgent to cause them to pass the gable porch, where they get a drink of ‘“‘pine-top whisky” for ‘‘a nick,” and then emerge, ready for a game of marbles, Here oomas one now, with a chicken iu his hand. He is & man of about 60 yoars of age, with low forehead, flat nose, and blue guws; his grizzled wool is arranged in little ropes, for he has been trying to straighten it, and in order to do so has separated it into little pleces, around each of which he has carefully wrapped a white cord, His pantaloons are covered with parti- colored patches, coat he has none, and through the slits in his shirt his ebony skin is plalnly revealed.

I aln’t got no uss for that nigger no way When Serena returned with the plate of cold food, Unclo Hairson soated himself on the lowest atep of the porsh, deposited his hat on the ground, and discussed the cold victuals with a most appreciative appetite. When he had finished ho ealled to the disdainful Serena. ‘'Hore, gal, take dese here things;" and, going to the window, where Miss Cornelia ntill sat croohetticg, he said: ‘'Miss Oornely, my oe 'oman wus mighty proud of dem biscuits you saunt by Temper- anco Jane, She said dey did her rhoumatiz a sight of good.” ‘‘Well, Uncle Harrison, I'll have to gut some biscuits in the bundle for er.” ‘“Haw, haw, haw!

On nearor approach we see, seated on a mule, a ginger-bread colored woman with a baby on her lap. ‘The woman wears & red calico dress, over the lower part of which is fastened a raaty black riding skirt; her head is adorned with a plaid cotton handker- chief, tied on in the peculiar turban- fashion which prevai's now only among the plantatlon negroes, The baby in horlap wears o little slip which seema to have borrowed its hue from the sunflower.

As they near the gate the woman (cheeks her stead and calls out: ‘0, Miss Cornely, does you want to uy two dozen aigs?”’ Miss Cornelia node assent from her station at the window among her flowers, and then says: ‘‘How is ylm’z‘r“bnby, Araminta?

But I'm gwine to carry her to de doctor now, see I he can do anything for her.” Miss Cornely sent Serena with money snd basket for Aramiatas ‘‘aigs,” and then, in a deprecating tone, sald: ‘‘Don’t talk so, Araminta; it’s all wrong. I hope de doctor can cure your baby, but we must be more carefal about he diel.

I will lend you an umbrella, and Matthew can bring it back when he passes here on his way to the mill.” Again Serena mutters as she goes on her mission. This time I hear her may: ‘“‘Dat geod-for-nothing nigger gwine to spile Miss Cornely's umber. ella,” But when she hands it up to the mojher, I notice that sho tales a handkoerchief from the pocket of her white apron, and wipes the molst face of the baby, asshe saye: ‘*‘Jest hecp de hankcher, Araminta to wipo Sarah Tano's face, and you stop at wy house a8 you goos home and lot her have a g:ud pap, and I'll gin her some black- rry cordial; it's first rate physic.

They evidently said to themaelves: “‘Perhaps this has been an exceptioral year.
