Testimony of Words.
One of the most striking natural evidences
of the truth of revealed religion with which
the study of language has furnished us,
bears upon the doctrine of the immortality
of the soul. TI;e voice of Nature, speaking
iu the formation of the words for die, in the
Greek tongue, presents a very curious fact
for the rejection of the thoughtful student.
This language was formed, nOt under the
more elevating and reiining influences of the
philosophy of Socrates, Plato and Aristotle;
not under the purifying power of the deeply
religious Greek tragedies, but it came forth
little by little from the minds of every-day,
jWodding men ; and those men, it must be
remembered were heathen. Under such cir
cumstances, we may expect to find that the
words are made naturally, and that they
.express the actual thought of the mind which
first produced them.
With this principle to guide us, let us ex
amine some of the words for die, in lan
guages whjch were spoken where the gospel
was not known, and where the people were
heathen.
In the Greek we have several forms of
expression by which the idea of dying is
represented. Apopsuko, oikomai, oiko,
fiikeo, apoikomai, apoleipo, and apeimi ton
liintj Sl mean to die; and the idea which is
common to them all, as well as to per eo, in
the Latin, is that of a departure or separa
tion, or going from one place or state to
.another. The idea of absolute destruction,
or annihilation of the living being, or agent,
seems not to be intimated in the root-idea
fit any one of these expressions. Apopsuko
rather indicates a departure of the soul.
Oiko, and all its derivatives, present the
idea of going or departing. Apoleipo means
po leave. Apeimi ton biou is a pretty close
translation of our popular expression, "de
part this life."
It has often occurred to us, that Cicero,
$rho wan one of the most careful students of
words of his day and generation, and whose
mind was often perplexed with the heathen
theories of the immortality of the soul, raitrht
nave louna more reliable instruction in a
careful study of his own word pcreo, than
was furnished by Bme of the extended
treaties which he was in the habit of con
suming. The word means to die, and it gets
this secondary signification from the primary
one of going through per and eo.) Com
pare the noun pcriculura which contains the
pame root idea. In English we have depart.
We say perish, (connected with per and eo.)
The first time we ever heard the expression
"go up," it was used by a flat boatman of
the Mississippi. JIu had received a mortal
wound, and said, '.'I am going ?," therebv
indicating that he was about to die. "Go
under" is a very co'ininon expression among
the trappers and Indian fighters in the
Western Territories, and has the same root
idea and the Fame popular significance.
Now, we hink that there is considerable
weight to be found in all this concurrent
jLestimony, gathered from various parts of
Jthe earth, from people of different tastes
and habits of thought, and all without the
leant suspicion of design or collusion. It all
goes to show that the popular voice testifies
po the existence of an innate idea of immor
tality. Whenever this voice is hoard to
Apeak, it seems In say, "When we die, we
do not utterly pass out of existence; we go
lino some oiner slate or place.7'
The Latjy homo (man), together with its
adjective hum anus (human), seems to sug
gest a lesson of instruction to us, il the woril
lcof the same family iishumi (the ground).
Was there lingering in the minds of these
Roman heajthen iom trace of a long-forgot-pen
revelation, which had tuught theiran
fstors that the Lord God made man out of
the dust of the ground '!
yJU tin? Homnius-and-Iiernus account of
th founding of Home, together with a great
deal more of what we used to learn with so
much enthusiasm about the heroic age of
arly Home, has been utterly swept away
by the profound and iconoclastic criticism
of Niebur and others, and as little or noth
ing has been done by those scholars to set
tle upon a reliable account of theancestry
ofhHoman people, may we not harbor a
ipicion that they may have been a sort of
lost tribe of the house of Israel, or that, at
all events, they had, iu their earlier history,
an opportunity of hearing something of the
Mosaic 'account of the creation 'i
Ji up such opportunity existed, how did
"rgil get his idea of a Messiah, so striking
ly presented in one of his pastorals? V
do not pretend to dictate, but we think we
may speculate, if we please, in a field of
thought where tiw scholars themselves seem
able to do little else.
The word right, in its various modifica
tions iu several languages, is a standing tes
timony against the abstract speculations of
rationalistic writers on ethics, and in favor
of the Christian code of morals, which makes
the will of God the rule of life. In Latin we
have rego, to make straight, to draw a
straight line, and hence to ruk. Then we
have rectus (right), or that which is made
straight; (re king), or he who keeps things
straight. The idea of straightness is pre
served as the root-idea of all the members of
this numerous family, of which many are
found in English, ak" rectitude, direct, erect,
The word right itself shows in its
orthography a close kinship to the Latin
rtgo, sometimes written with an i, as in
tirigo, to direct. Right, then, js that which
is straight, and the lex (legs) drew the
straight line. What a strong confirmation
of the principles of Christian ethics do we
find here!
This view is still further confirmed by the
formation of the word which expresses the
opposite of light. Wrong (past part of
wring), same as wrung, is a standing memo
rial of the great truth that immoral conduct
docs violence to nature. That which is
Ttr.mg is twisted or wrung out of its proper
natural and straight position. The French
r.S2 the same form of ex ression exactly. It
is for (twisud), from the Latin torque'o, En
gl'h torture. All this thows what violence
man must do to nature before we can do
wrong. Of course, by the term nature, we
mean his original, straight, God-given na
ture, and not the perv rted, dci t:d second
nature, the wrung and distorted, fallen na
ture, which has bern introduced by sin.
"ime on the word right, wo would oall !
attention to the fact that the French word j
for right condemns everv man of stupidit v t
lunacy or unreason. fasCnrlvIo r,.,i,i ..iiS
il), who dovsnot an right." The word is s
. ussaidMo Wright;
when he h,as reason, (il a raison). Every
Frenchman then who does wrong, is, bv the
very formation of his language, convicted of
folly.
This view of the case presents a strong
innate testimony in favor of the right. But
the people whose highest ideas of right sim
ply make it reasonable ; who, in the origin
of the word seem to have attached no Divine
sanction to the law of rectitude and the prin
ciples of life, might well be expected to de
luge their land witu blood, in au insaue at

and of revelation, and to substitute the god
dess of Reason. O Reason, what unreason

ACID PHOSPHATE OF LIME,
For Composting with Cotton Seed.
PRICE REDUCED.
This article is prepared expressly for composting
with Cotton Seed. It supplies the seed with that in
which they are deficient, and furnishes the planter
with a first class Fertilizer at the smallest cost.
200 pounds of this article, composted with an
equal weight of Cotton Seed, as directed by printed
Circulars, will fertilize an acre sufficiently to pro
duce an increase of crop, under favorable conditions
of season and culture, to double and treble the
natural product of the soil, while under no consider
ation can it fail to compensate for the cost. It is
alike applicable to Corn and other crops. This arti
cle has been in use for the past two years with the
most satisfactory results.

NOTICE TO FARMERS.
Your attention is invited to the ACID PIIOS-
mers from this market last season, and the testhnony
of some of them has been furnished as follows, viz :
Dr. D. W. Flow of Pioneer Mills, savs that he
composted this Acid Phosphate according to in
structions, and applied 400 pounds of the Compost
to the acre, in the cofjou drjll, and that he had a
good stand and fine growth of cotton, which, not
withstanding the severe drouth, gave such satisfac
tion as will induce him to use it on his next crop.
Says it should be composted as early as practicable
after Christmas.
Dr. J. M. Strong of Steel Creek, says that he used
this Acid Phosphate compost and the Cotton Food
Fertilizer and stable manure in the same field, in
order to compare their merits, and that the Acid
Phosphate Compost made the best yield of the three.
He applied 300 pounds to the acre.
Major S. Watson Reid of Steel Creek, says he
used the Acid Phosphate Compost last season on
both Cotton and Corn, and it gave satisfaction on
both, that it doubled the yield of Corn.
Dr. I. W. Hcrron of Steel Creek, says he used the
Pacific Fertilizers, Elawan No. 2, Cotton Food and
Ike- Acid Phosphate Compost, and that the yield
from the Acid Phosphate was decidedly the most
satisfactory. He expects to use it for his next crop,
and desires to have it in compost heap as soon after
1st of January as practicable.
Other farmers who used this Acid Phosphate '
composted as instructed, speak ia like terms of com- i
mcnaation oi it. Uesides proving itself to be a first
Class Fertilizer it is entitled to your favorable con
sideration because it does nop cost more than a
fourth as much as farmers have been paving for
commercial manures. Instructions for composting
will be furnished with the Phosphate.
The Atlantic Phosphate Company also prepares a
Manipulated Fertilizer, fully up to the standard, at
a greatly reduced price, iking the Aireut of the
Coinpauy in Charlotte, I am prepared' to furnish
cither iu any quantities desired, and will be pleased
to receive your orders. JOHN A. YQljlsG.

Crystal Discovery for the Hair.
Arthur Xaiians, Inventor and Proprietor. Washina-

A perfectly clear preparation in one bottle as
easily applied as water, lor restoring Gray Hair to
its natural color and youthful appearance to eradi
cate and prevent dandruff, to promote the 'Towth of
the Hair and stop its falling out. It is entirely harm
less and perfectly free from any poisonous substance,
and will therefore take the place of all the dirty and
unpleasant preparations now in use. Numerous
testimonials have been sent us from many of our
most prominent citizens. In everything in which
the articles now in use are objectionable. Crystal
Discovery is perfect. It is warranted to contain
neitner Sugar of Lead, Sulphur or Nitrate of Silver
it does not soil the clothes or scalp, is agreeably per
fumed and makes one of the best dressin-s for the
Hair in use. It restores the color of the Hair "more
perfect and uniformly than any other preparation "
and always does so in from three to ten days, vir
tually feeding the roots of the Hair withall the
nourishing qualities necessary to xU growth and
healthy condition; it restores the decayed and in
duces a new growth of the Hair more positively
than anything else. The application of this wonder
ful discovery also produces a pleasant and coolin
effect on the scalp and gives the Hair a pleasing an"
pearance.
We cali special attention to the fact that a limited
number of small trial bottles can be had bv those
wishing to try it. You will notice that in pursuing
this course our aim is to convince by the actual
merits of the article.
