Tutt's Fills M Coen&Co SLAVES IK GEOEGIA. A. McD. "Wilson, a wholesale merchant of this city, does business in the remotest parts of Georgia and with a great many old-time people. He has a great many customers in Gilmer county, a small but very wealthy county in northern Geor gia, almost on the North Carolina line. This county is "not well developed, there being few towns, and the farmers are in every instance large planteis, raising everything they need at home, very much as they did before the war. They have their superintendents, as in olden times, and in a great many in stances work the same slaves that they did before the war servants that have ministered to the wants of the family for many years back. The farmers of this seotion do not go about much, but stay at home and look after tho large interests they have there. The negroes have never been usod to anything different to what they get, passing from slavery into freedom without scarcely being aware of the change. They have known their masters all their lives, and a feeling of dependence has been inculcated in them that makes them loth to leave tho old planta tion and start life on their own re sponsibility. They get all they want to eat and drink and enough clothes for the exigencies of the climate, which is very mild, and it is not to be wondered at that they still consider themselves the prop erty of their masters. Jt was a merchant of one of the cross-roads stores of Gilmer that a few days ago sent to Mr. Wilson, to whom he owed a small amount, a note offering to give among other forms of security a mortgage "one negro man." This mortgage was tendered to the cross-roads merchant by one of the farmers of that county to se cure a debt due the grocer, and the grocer indorsed the note and sent it to Mr. "Wilson, together with the mortgage, in payment of the amount due Mr. Wilson. Tho mortgage was" made in perfeot se curity. The unhappy negro was accurately described. In the de scription his name was given as Joe Addison, and his age is put at sixty-five years. The description closes with these werds: II came to me by my father, anil ha been my property for twenty years." The mortgage bears the date of July 15, 1885. The maker of the mortgage evidently lingers under the impression that the negro is still his slave, and that he has the right to buy a loan on his head as he did before the sixties, and, what is still more bingular, the merchant to whom the mort gage was given did not see any thing wrong 111 the security offered. Mr. Wilson returned the note, together with the mortgage, saying that ho preferred some more tangible security. Atlanta, Ga.y special. A REMEDY FOR CHILLI AND FEVER. Rochebtkb, N. Y. Dec. 16, 1885. Four years ago I contracted a hard cold that settled on my longs. I had a severe chill, followed jby high iever, ragingheadche, pain on. my left side over the lung, and every time a fit of coughing came on, which was -every few minutes, it was terrible to bear the pain. I thought it meant an attack of pneumonia, as I went through a. two-month siege of that disease, and it came on just the same war. As " it was night I thought I would wait until morning before sending for a doctor. Fortu nately a half-box of Allcock'u Fobocs Piasters was fonud in 'the possession of a friend, who boarded with us. One of these was put on my throat; two on my chest, and one on my back over the left shoulder blade. I then had a hot foot bath. After again getting into bed, it ,femed but a few minutes when sffl niy symptoms were relieved; the skin became quickly moist ; I coughed only at intervals, and then with very little 'effort, and in about an hour I was in a sound sleep, from which I did not awake until morn ing. I resumed business in two days. - H? F. Fletcher. Red fish are beginning to ascend the Grand Ronde river, and the ""jYallowa lake will soon be popu lated with them. Bucklea's Arales Salve.

A gen eral principle of longstanding and considerable importauce in the administration of public land mat ters is reaffirmed by acting secre tary Muldrow in his ruling on the case of James Young's homestead entry in Salt Lake City. Its pur port is that no amount of cultiva tion and improvement, and no showing of good faith in other re spects, can atone for lack of act ual residence on land sought Xo be secured, and that even actual residence does not give validity to a claim, except in so far as it shows an intention to make such resi denco permanent bej'ond the ac quirement of title. Young had cultivated fifty acres of his claim, constructed irrigating ditches and built a house, in which he person ally lived. His improvements are valued at from $1,000 to $1,200. His family remained upon the place owned by him, half a mile distant, and it was evidence that he designed to abandon his claim as a place of residence as soon as he had made his title secure. A contest was made by VanNostrum, a protessional contestant, who pur posed gaining some preference rights and selling them ,out. The local officers and the commis sioners decided for Young and against VanNostrum. Tho acting secretary orders a modification of this decision. He says, while Van Nostrum cannot acquire any rights in the matter, the government is not stoppod from action upon in formation it has gained, and he directs cancellation of Young's claim. Decrease of the Salmon Oatch. Sax Francisco, July 17. The result of not" putting young fish into the Sacramento river has been most disastrous to the salmon canning interest in the lower river, the annual catch having dwindled from 'over 200,000 cases of four dozen one pound cans each in 1882 to about 36.000 cases in 18SG. In addition to the decrease of canning there was also a re duced amount of salmon salted, smoked or used in a fresh state. The value of the canned balmon taken in tho Sacramento in 1SS2 wad over $900,000, and the indus try, outside of the operatives in canneries, employed 1,500 boats and 4,000 fishermen. The catch of salmon has now dwindled to about one-sixth its former num bers, and the few canning firms still operating are about to aban don the business in which they are losers. Hotspur Remarks. 'The sun doth nourish Agues," there fore in the Sniumer months it is only a measure of common prudence to guard against malarious diseases, intermittent feveru, ayues and bilious attacks. "Many cases of Fever and Ague, Dumb Ague and Congestive Chill3 -ver promptly arrested and entirely banished by the use of Simmons Liver .Regulator. You don't say half enough in regard to the efficacy of that valuable medicine. Believe me when I say I was a sufferer for years and only found relief by its use' Robeht .1.
