PARDONED FOR HEROISM. Deedo that ISocurwil for a Teuueoaor Life Prlouner His Freedom. Huu> Tlllumu, thu negro wnvtct In th* Dale Uvuuty luluos, a brief mvutlon ot whom* pardou by the Governor of Gaorgi* for horoUui wan uutde several days ago, aaaug to have bean a subject must tit for executive clemency. Tllliuuu wuu sent to the penitentiary UftiHiu yours ago fur life for thu murder of u I Borin 1 ■ ■■!tuy. fie wilt to tlie ixsU mines iu ixlo County, and for ull the long year* that have pusuesl ■luce then he has worked faithfully at his task, uud lias won the good opinion of ail the officials at thu camp. lu October lent the notorious negro Neal Smith, after awuiulting a young white woman, took refugv In the stock ade. A molt of infuriated men, armed to the teeth, demanded that the negro Im* dellvivred up to them to be killed. The guaixla at the <«tup were completeiy deniorulited, and left Supt. Cox pow erlcHS to handle the convicts. Neal Smith wits drugged out. the giitee wonleft open, uud there wus a ruab made by the prleouers to gain their freedom. Ham Tillman, serving n life seuten<*«*. •batched a pickax from the ground, and leaping into the open gttt«*s told the prisoners tluit he would kill the first Dian who attempted to pass. Tillman is a very lorge man, and lias the reputation of lM*lug a very determined one, and none of the prisoners dared to attempt tile jKiswsge. lie held the gates until the guards bad been rallied and the convicts hud been locked iu their cells. In November Tillman gave anotbet proof of ills heroism. The convicts who work in tin* mines tire unattended by any officials except two mine surveyors, who measure off the tasks that ire t • l>e done, one afternoon in Novemlwr, is the surveyors were le-.vfng the mines, they were attacked by the convicts. One of them was knocked senseleM with a billy loaded with Iron, but the other made his escape. CapL Cox tried to get the guards to go down iu the mines with him to quell the mutiny, but not a single one would go. He called for volunteers. Sam Tillman grabbed a big stick and was the first man to volunteer. Another negro followed his example, and accompanied by th<*se two convicts, Capt. Cox went down into the dark mines and succeeded iu rescuing the wounded surveyor and in getting the mutineers to throw down their arms -rude guns made from gns pipes and knives ground from files and shovels, and come back to tlie camp. Had it not been for the invasion of the mint's by the superintendent and his little guard loss of life might luive resulted, but as it was no one was killed. On account of the heroic conduct ot tlie negro, and on account of bis good behavior since he lias been in the penitentiary, the officials recommended his pardon, and it was granted by the Governor.—Chattanooga News. When They Quarrel. The difference between a man and a woman is never quite so clearly defined as when they quarrel. No matter how many hundred times she has seen tit to forgive liis derelictions, if he once imagines he has a grievance then the mountains are as putty in comparison with his immovability. Tlie past is all forgotten; no matter how good she may have been to him or how actually right Ishe is in the present instance, he is going to assume a highly Judicial air that no amount of pleading can alter until the gets good and ready to change his mood. The yielding, loving woman who overlooks a man's faults and exaggerates Ids virtues stands no sort of chance when the high and mighty lord and master tak<*s it into bls head to be Indignant. The one mistake she Ims made, the one aggravating circumstance she has been the cause of creating. blots out all thoughts and memories of the hours, minutes and seconds when «he lias sacrificed her own comfort ninny a time in order to add to his enjoyment, and counting no trouble great if lie but repays her with a smile.—Chi* cage Chronicle. Drill at Life-Saving Stations. On Tuesdays there is boat practice; this consists in hauling tlie boat-car-riage to the beach, unloading, launching her, and pulling out through the fcurf—backing, turning, or doing Just •what the keeper commands, he steering the boat. After practice, tlie boat is put on the carriage, hauled back to the bout house, cleaned, and left lu perfect order. Wednesday is signal-drill day. There is an international code of signals, composed of flags representing the different letters of the alphabet. Each surfmau has a set of miniature flags, and he signals to tlie keeper, who answers them with his flags—so any man at the station can read a message from a wrecked ship. All the principal maritime nations have adopted this code, and as vessels are provided with flags, and books containing the key to different signals, printed in many languages. communication between vessels ami stations can be easily carried on. whatever the ship’s nationality.—St Nicholas. Muatachea in the British Army. It has long been compulsory for British officers to wear mustaches, but so long as the regulation was generally followed no notice was taken of th.* few individuals who, either from not being able to grow one or from other reasons, were in tlie habit of shaving the upper lip. Lately, however, the authorities have become fussy on tlie subject, and certain well-known officers, having been ordered to wear mustaches, present very unattractive countenances in tlie cases where nature re*i fuses to come to their assistance with more than a few weird-looking bristles, The man with an alcoholic-tinted nose never deserts his colors.

Gen, Ncotc'u I'orolght. A biography of Gen. Scott, written by Gen. MarcutJ. Wright, is the latest addition to the “Great I’oinmandera" series. It contains an anecdote by Geu. Charles P. Stone, who was on Scott’s staff. Soon after the outbreak of tlie war in IHtil Secretaries Seward, Chase, and Cameron called upon Scott and found him at dinner. They told him they had come to get his Judgment of the prospect. It was immediately nit* t l.iiH'olu’s first call for lioops. The General was the bend of the army, but getting too old to hold that responsible position in that trying time. He invited them to ait down nt the table. Gen. Wright says: "He went on to explain his idea of how thu war would progress from year to year. While he was talking Mr. Seward seemed to be somewhat impatient and put in several little interruptions, but finally subsided ami allowed Gen. Scott to proceed. 'Hie General gave an outline of a war probably lasting from three and one-half to four years, but resulting in favor of the Union. On the General's announcement of his opinion that the Union would triumph Mr. Seward, rubbing his hands, inquired: ‘Well, General, then the troubles of the Federal Government will be at an end.' To which Gen. Scott replied: ‘No, gentlemen, for a long time thereafter it will require the exercise of the full powers of the Federal Government to restrain the fury of the non-combatants.' ” It's Healthy to Work in a Newer. Occasional the assertion is heard that the healthiest of all occupations is that of sewer scavenging. In large cities the men, iu spite of their filthy work, are proverbially healthy. Mr. Laws, a chemist who has been employed in special investigations in the sewers by the Ixmdon City Council, has proved in a huge report that sewer gas is all but inno ent of distributing bacterial of any kind, and certainly not those which are pathogenic. The sewage contains microbes of various kinds in abundance, but the gas itself is much freer from these dreaded organisms than the outer air of the st'eet. Os all this he gives most convincing proof, and so challenges the theories which lay to the account of sewer gas a train of horrible ravages on health. This is a startling revelation and suggests that fresh inqniiy is needed into the real cuuses of so much illness traceable to drains and foul odors. — Francisco Call. Twin Suns, The etar Alpha Centauri—the nearest star to the earth as far as we yet know—consists, as the telescope shows, of two suns, one of which is five o> six times brighter than the other. But recent observations by Mr. Ro! erts at the Cane of Good Hope Observatory have led him to the conclusion that the two componentsoi Alpha ( entauri, much as they differ in brightness, are really nearly equal in weight. Together they are twice as heavy as our sun. It seems to follow from these facts that one of those twin suns is losing its light, and in the course of ages may become only a gigantic opaque planet, while its companion will still continue to blaze with solar splendor.
