It was on reading it, that George Prentice said : ’•One might almost wish to die, if he knew that so beautiful a tribute as this would be written to his memory.”] On the bosom of a river, Whore th j su i ualooij.l his quiver Aid th? starlight gleamed forever, 8 tiled a vessel light and free. Morniug dew-drops hung like manna On the bright so ds of her banner, And the zeplfyrs rose to fan her, Softly to the radiant sea. At her prow a pilot beaming In the flush of youth stood dreaming, And he was in glorious seeming Like an angel from above. Through his hair the breezes sported, And as on the wave he floated, Oft that pilot’, angel throated, W.irbeleJ lays of h *pe aud love. Through those locks so blithely flowing Buds of laurel blbom were blowing, And his hands soon were throwing Mu'ic from a lyre of gold. Swiftly dovn the stream he glided, Soft the purple wav'e divided, And a rainbow arch divided . On his canvas’ snowy f 4d. Anxious hearts with fond devotion Watched him sailing to the ocean, Prayed that never wild commotion ‘Mid the elements might rise. And he seemed like some Apollo Charming summer winds to follow, While the svater flag’s carol Trembled to his music sighs. But those purple waves enchanted, Rolled beside a City hauted By an awful spell that daunted Every comer to the shore. Night shades rank the air incumbered, Aud the pale marble statue numbered Where the lotus eaters slumbered, And woke to life no more. Then there rushed with lightning quick ness O’er his face a mortal sickness, And the dew in fearful thickness Gathered o’er his temple fair. And there swept a dying murmur Through the lovely Southern summer, •As the beauteous pilot comer Perished by that city there. Still rolls on that radiant river, And the sun unbinds his quiver, And the sunlight streams forever On Its bosom as before. But the vessel’s rainbow banner Greets no more the gay savanna, And that pilot’s lute drops manna On the purple waves no more. THE ‘‘LITTLE COAT.” I am quite sure that when the sensible Hebrew mother “made a little coat” for her lovely boy, she remembered that he was “lent unto the lord,” and not to the “lust of the eye and the pride of life.” But there is another meaning which I wish to give this “little coat.” In the Bible, dress is an emblem of character. Christiani ty is spoken of as a raiment ; we are exhorted to “put on Christ,” to be “clothed with humility” and to keep our garments un spotted from the world. Nor is it a merj pun—a playing with sacred words to remind you that habit both signifies dress and sig nifies the disposition of the mind and its tendency to good or evil. The habit of doing right is the essence o. godliness. Now, we parents not only clothe our little ones; we also provide, in no sin did gree, the habits of tiieir souls. We help to clothe j them in garments of light and! loveliness, or else in garments of I sin and sorrow and shame. Wo : make for them coats which no moth can consume—coats which they shall be wearing after we have mouldered into dust! Our | children put on the examples we ; set, and wear iu Not only what ' we say, bat what we do, will be f repeated in their opinions and! their conduct. Our character * streams into our children. It en- J ters through their eyes and their | ears every moment. How quick ! they are to copy us ’ No phroto- ! graphic plate is more sensitive ' to tbe images which lodge there. . Ourirritatkms irritate them. Our dissimilations make them tricky and deceitful. If a boy h hand led harshly,and jerked into obe dience, he will likely turn out a sulky, obstinate creature; he will be just what our impatient rude- ■ new makes him. If malicious latle sour our conversation at ■ the table, our children's teeth will he seton edge. If we talk only ‘'money, money, money,” they will Im? greedy for sharp < bargains. If wo talk "horses” and "base bull" and race courses etc., they will be on fire with a r<g« for sporting. If wc give | our boxs a dollar for the toy shop, or places of amusement, and only a dime for the contri bution box, we shall teach them self-indulgence is of tea-times more importance than charity.— If we live for the world, they will die of the world, and be lost forever! The mind-garments which we weave they will wear. The mind-garments which we weave •'tyoy clothed in the habits we helped to fashion. My fellow-parents, we are wea ving our children’s habits every hour. We do it by little things and through unconscious influen ces. We are making the “little coats” which shall be worn not only in this world, but in the world to come! Oh, how much it depends on us whether they shall ; ‘*walk in white” among’ the glorified in Heaven! The proper ty we can leave our children may be small indeed. We may not aflbrd them an expensive educa tion. But day by day, we can be prayfully, patiently weaving for them that garment of -good ness which shall grow brighter and brighter until they put on the shining raiment like unto those before the Throne ! — Theo. L. Cuyler. THOUGHTS FOR THE MONTH. Os course the principal effort of the farmer, tlrs month, will be directed to sav ing the crops already made—cotton, corn, etc. But there are other things which ought to be attended to, as opportunity offers. Oats may still be sown. If the land is ich, aud the seasons favorable, those sownr before the 15th will do well—put in la ter than the middle, the crop, is by no means certain. It may be laid down as a general ride that with winter crops the richer the land, the later may sowings be made. Clover and grass may also be sown the first half of the month, with like chances of success; but we xvould not advise it done—it would be betetr if the sowings are delayed until October, to wait till Spring. Every failure with above crops, is a misfortune at the South, because their cultivation is not yet suffi ciently established, for the former to fail Without discouragement—and it is exceed ingly important that no injudicious ad vice be given. It has been a great mis fortu ic to the country, that many of its agricultural writers, have little actual ex perience on the farm, and in other cases have an experience which can neither ben efit themselves nor the readers of their writings. If a successful farmer makes a failure, It is always lustnetive, if a vissionary makes one, it may not throw a single ray of light on the path of pro gress, Th J efforts of the latter arc nei- • ther properly directed nor kept within le gitimate bounds, and every one expects failure as a natural result. Whil t with the former perhaps only one important con dition of success, svas omitted; if so, that one stands forth prominently, to be studied and weighed and its sliare in the failure carefully asertained. WHEAT. Preparations for this crop should now be made, even where it is regarded inju dicious to seed down in October. 'Hie clean fallow of the English, as a prepa tion for a wheat crop, may bi regarded as a waste of labor, but there can be doubt of its great value to the crop.— The re)>eated ploughing of the land, brings the latter into a state in which it can give promptly of its elements to this most civilized of our domestic plants ; civilized in the sense of being farthest removed from Ps wild state, and incapa ble of thriving except under most artifi cial Condition’. It is not a gross feeder, ' cannot like com thrive on coarse fare— its elilborating power is relatively small. ! Choice and delicate food must therefore ’ be in reach of its delicate, fibrous roots —and the soil soft and pulverized, that the delicate rootlets may roam at plea sure in search of it We say then if circumstances permit, break up and harro, or roll or drag your wheat land several times in advance of ( the s taling down, just as you would a I turnip i>atclu Give it also a good sup i ply of well rotted stable manure, whose 1 j < riglnally offensive and complex com I pounds, the chem'e ry of nature has re : vluced to the simpler elrtnents of Carbon* : ic Acitl, Ammonia, Ae , or else of cotton | seed, almost too nearly approximating the | fixxl of the animals to be. converted into ' I manure; or ebo of pure chemicals, like, j sulphate ammonia, nitrate soda and super- ' i phosphate lime. Which ever of these ! your elHKee may fall upon, see that it is thoroughly mingled with and distributed through the soil. Wherever the roots : ' wander, let them find a portion ready for j them—remember that wheat is a fibrous I rooted plant and that ita roots are exceed ! Ingly numerous, literally filling the soil i let the manure do likewise. As r. marked before, wheat, of all cul tivated crops, i* least a'de to take care of • itself. As lands become exhaissted by | ’ cultivation, they refuse to yield crops of I wheat sooner than any ot!»er. It is use* ; I less to sow it on poor land, or that poor- | Ily ptvparei’.

But every | | farowr (Might to raise wheat enough for j \ hts family and depcoden** —if fee has a > i little surplus for the poor widows and or , pbaus of deal but immortal Cotxftclertae«, k I NORCROSS, GA., FRIDAY, OCTBOER 3, 1873. no harm will ba done. Four or five acres on each farm can furnish enough for these purposes, as tvas sliown by experi ments in this vicinity a few years ago; where, upon naturally poor granite soils, the yield was 40 to 46 bushels. Deep and repeated ploughings with high manuring was the only secret in the matter. The highest yields were from drilled Wheat— drills ten to seventeen inches apart. We have no doubt but that it -.vould be found generally advantageous to drill wheat and in the Spring, run a plough between the rows, to break the crust and kill the weeds. In the absence of a drilling machine, run furrows Avith a narrow Lull-tongue, sow the grain broad-cast as usual, and cover with a harrow or brush run cross-tvaj s the furrow. Thus managed, the plants will come up quite regularly in the drill. If the 1 ind will admit of it, run the drills north and south, to allow the sunshine to get between the vows ; this will diminish the danger of make the stalks hard and tough and therefore less liable to lodge or fall down. High, dry knobs and northern slopes well elrained, are best adap. ted to w heat—and if the soil is stiff so much the better for tlfit. S’ABIETIES. AVliilst Wheats, while yielding the finest flour and bringing the highest price in the market, are not so hardy as the red or amber varieties. The amber wheats are best for general culture for family purposes. And for southern latitudes the earlier ma turing the better—lat j varieties are more liable to rust. Those which ripen the lat ter part of May are the safest—both be cause more likely to escape rust and be cause they encounter less risk of being cut, off by drought. TIME OF SOLVING. From the middle of October to middle of November includes the best time for sowing—middle of October in the cold er, midJle of November in the Avarmer portions of the South. Sown too early there is danger of the Hessian fly—sown too la(e, the cold Reeps back the plants too much. Sow when the ground is dry and don’t forget to soak the seed iu blue stone. One pound will be enough for five bushels of seed. Dissolve it in water— put the seed in baskets aud dip them down in the solution, take out and Ist the pickle drain off, and when the grains are nearly dry, roll them iu plaster or lime. It is best to have the soed whitened, that the sower may see with what regularity his svork is being done. SWEET I*OTATOES, Towards the last of the month, these will have to be dug. A slight touching of the vines by frost wjlVriri but it it is best to dig before a freeze, as the up per ends of the tubers are very apt to be frost bitten thereby. We have fotmd it best to dig in dry weather, and to pat the potatoes away dry. WHU abovo precau i tlotls obseWed, there is no difljculity' in keeping Ihnn through the winter if p t ■ up in banks or hills. Good farmers diff er in tbe details of these banks—the es sential points are to make the dirt cov ering thick (not less tlwm oils foot and 1 to keep it dry.

These should be dug before frost tou ches the vines or immediately afterwards, jf thus managed by pulling up the vines, nearly all the pols will come up with them. If left for soma time after frost, the stem of the pod rots and when the vines are pul led, most of the pods are left in the ground.

When drilled, turnips ehou’d receive I light ploughings and hoeings during this mon’h. Where broad-casted they should be hoed and thinned out. Sown down too thick as they generally are, and entirely neglected, fine roots are M-ldom made.— When the cold bee omes severe enough to check growth, cut off the tope and bank the roots as you would potatoes. It is not necessary to cover them so thickly with dirt. Rutabagas, Seven tops and some others, will sometimes stand the win ter left in the ground, but there is risk obout it whenever the mercury decends to 15 degrees Fahrenheit. PLOVGHIXG.

That able and reliable financial journal, the New York Daily Bulletin,., of Monday, discusses the financial crisis, iq all its as pects and bearings, both as to its remote causes and probable ef fects on the banking, commercial, agricultural, manufacturing aud industrial interests of the coun try, giving a history of the finan cial collapse in New York up to Saturday evening. Os the pro gress of the panic, the action of the banks,of the Exchange Board, and the Government, our readers have been fully advised by tele graph, and the extended details as currently published by the local press of New York, while they would fill pages of our pa per would be of yery little inter est at this time to the general reader. One important fact howev er, which is commented on by the Bulletin — the responsibility of the Administration for the pres ent financial embarrassment— cannot generally be; too general ly disseminated nor too profound ly pondered by the people of all sections of the country. AJuding to the conference be tween President Grant and Sec petary Richardson, and the panic stricken bankers of the metropo lis, and as the bungling,inefficient action of the former, the Bulletin says “About midnight on Friday, the Secretary of the Treasury seems to have reached the con clusion that it was really inevi table he must do something to save the country. He instructed the Assistant Treasurer to issue proposals for the purchase of $lO,- 000,000 of 5-20 s for legal ten ders ; but the offer could be safe ly made ; for as tho event prov ed, the market had only $2,500,- 090 to sell. A sad sacrifice to red tape routine was made in con nection with tho operation. The President of the Union Trust Uoinpany asked to have $1,009,- 000 of greenbacks upon an equal amount of bonds early in tho morning, on the understand iiig that the Treasury should ac cept them at the lowest figure made at the Subsequent offers With the understanding that tho request was made to protect his bank against a run on deposits. The request was declined on the ground that 12 o'clock was the official hour for the purchase, and the President returned to close the doors of his bank and there by threw oil on the flames of panic. The injury from this sin g]o official act of deference to routine infinitely exceeded the good accomplished by the subse quent purchase of bonds. This, however, is about up to the usual standard of Government manage ment,” In another article the Bulletin emphatically declares that, “all the embarrassments of the past few days can be traced largely to Congress and the Federal Government, and says : “By un wise and unjust grants of lands to railroads,new roads were stimu lated into existence, where they were not needed, and, beyond the means of the country to provide for the expenditures their con struction required. By excessive taxation, revenues far beyond the requirements of the G ivornment expenditures were raised and al lowed to remain idle in the Pub lic Treasury, thus depriving com ! merce and industry of the coin, j the legal tenders, and the Na i tional Bank notes needed for tho i exchanges of the daily payment |of the community, and entailing j ! on the country the further loss { of needlessly paying interest on i an equivalent amount of the pub- Hq indebtedness which might have been paid off, thus restoring I to commerce and industry its life-blood, instead of allowing it to lie uselessly idle in the State 1 reasury. "But worse than all, by forcing our banks by legal enactment, to hold at all times 25 to 15 per cent of their entire liabilities Congress has enabled vile specu lators, whose operations were bas ; ed on tne ruin of the legitimate ; * operations of the industry and >' commerce to the country, to force i J the banks to .curtail their loans at the very time whed they legiti-1 match' should be enlarged, so as | to move the annual crops of the . VOL. I.—NO. 14. country, and facilitate the other exchanges of the community; and when the danger, and its in evitable consequence, were poin ted out to the Government it failed to apply the least v remedy or palliative,or to aid the commu nity and the banks, until alter the stoim bad burst, and its evil consequences could be avoided. “ The people should profit by this dear experience. They should insist that Government should cease to interfere with industry, commerce and banking, which should be left free in eyery one of their operations, so beneficial and so indispensable to the com munity. “All subsidies and land grants to railroads, steamship companies and other enterprises of whatev er kinder nature should be en tirely prohibited, and the expen ditures of the Government, as well As the taxation to meet them, should be reduced to the lowest possible limits, so as to leave the people as little burthened and as free as possible to pursue their useful daily avocations, to which alone, and not to Government pro tection and aid, are due all the well-being and progress they en joy or can attain. /The more we diminish the power attributes, functionsand expenditures of Gov ernmeiit, Federal, and local, the greater will be the prosperity and happiness of the people.” ]Sa van na h Nev:s. Truthfulness —It is not what people eat, but what they digest, that makes them strong; it is not what they gain, but what they save, that, makes them rich; it is. not what they read, but what remember, that makes them learned; it is not what they pro fess, but the practice, that makes them righteous. These are very plain aud important truths, too little heeded by gluttons, spend thrifts, bookworms and hypocrites Truth is the foundation of instruc tion, and habitual regard for it is absolutely necessary. lie who walks by the light of it has the advantage of the mid-.day sun; he who would spurn it goes forth amid clouds and darkness. THOUGHTS OF GREAT MEN. We always think of great men as in the act of performing the deeds whicn give them renown, or else in stately repose, grand, gloomy and majestic. And yet this is hardly fair, because even the most g< r geous and magnificent of human beings have to bother themselves tvith the little things of life which engage the attention of us small people. No doubt Moses snuffed and got angry when he had a severe cold in his head, and if a fly bit Idin while sitting in the desert, why should we suppose he did not jump and use violent language and rub the sore place? And Caesar; isn’t it tolerably certain that he used to become furious when he went up stairs to get his slippers in tbe dark, and found that Calpburnia had shoved them under the bed, so he had to sweep around wildly for them with the broom handle ? And when Solomon cracxed his crazy-bon<, is it unreasonable to suppose that he hopped around the floor and looked mad, or felt as if he would like to cry? Imagine Georg.) Washington sitting on tbe edge of the bed putting on a clean shirt, and growling at Mal tha because the buttons were off; or St. Augustine with an apron around his neck having his hair cut; or Joan of Arch holding her front hair in her mouth, us women d°, while she fixes up her back hair; or Napoleon jumping out of bed in a phrenzy to chase a mosquito around the room with a pillow; or Martin Luther in his night shirt trying to put the baby to sleep at two o’clock in the morning; or Alexander the Great with the liic-coughs; or Thomas Jefferson getting suddenly over a fence to avoid a dog; or the Duke of Wellington lying in bed with the mumps; or Daniel Webster abusing his wife because ahc hadn’t tucked the cover in at the foot of the bed ; or Benjamin Franklin paring his corn with a razor; or Jonathan Ed wards at the dinner table wanting to sneeze i just as he had his mouth full of beef; or i Noah Webster standing at his window at i night throwing bricks at a cat. Max Aoelkj:. Because a man worth $(>00,000 took a fancy to and married a barefooted Indiana girl, the rest of the Hoosier maidens prowl around the country with mud Huseing up j between their toes, looking for well dressed strangers. We should not repine at ingrati tude, for the Savior was denied by i one of his disciples, betrayed by ' another, and in the dark hour ■f ’ adversity deserted by all the rest.

Ayer’s Hair Vigor, For restoring to Gray Hair its natural Vitality and Color a A dressing which is at once agreeable, healthy, and effectual for preserving the hair. It soon restores faded, or gray hair to its original color, with the gloss and freshness of youth. Thin hair is thickened, falling hair checked, and baldness often, though not always cured by its use. Nothing can restore the hair where the follicles are de stroyed, or the glands atrophied an/ decayed j but such a-« remain can be saved by this application, and stimu lated into activity, so that a new growth of hair is produced. Instead of fouling the hair with a pasty sedi ment, it will keep it clean and vigorous. Its use will prevent the hair from turning gray or falling off, and consequently prevent baldness. The restoration of vitality it gives to the scalp arrests and prevents the forma tion of dandruff, which is often so un cleanly and offensive. Free from thos® deleterious substances which mako some preparations dangerous and inju • rious to tho hair, the Vigor can only benefit but not harm it. If wanted, merely for a HAIR DRESSING, nothing else can be found so desirable. Containing neither oil nor dye, it does not soil white cambric, and yet lasts long on tho hair, giving it a rich, glossy lustre, and a grateful perfume. Prepared by Dr. J. C.
