politic. He was consequently a most
admirable Spartan, but a morally de
graded man. As brave as a lion, as true
to country as thrice-tried steel, be
was a thief on principle, and would
scruple at no deed of treachery or de
ceit. Such, too, is the tendency of Utili
tarian as exhibited in the results of the
Division of Labor, when earned to an
extremity. Pins, now, are doubtless
better made and more abundantly made,
than they ever were before ; yet surely
’tis a sad account to render of a man’s
life, that he had attained perfection in
making the twelfth part of a pin. The
facilities of communication between dis
tant points in New York are unprece
dented and uneqaled, and the omnibus

dawn till night, even so long as to take
his meals, driver an omnibus better than
it was ever driven before; society is
vastly benefited, but the poor driver is

“Two elements” [I quote from Gui
zot’s History of Civilization ;] “seem to
be comprised in the great fact, which we
call Civilization ; two circumstances are
necessary to its existence—it lives upon
two conditions—it reveals itself by two
symptoms : the progress of society, the
progress of individuals; the amelioration
of the social system, and the expansion
of the mind and faculties of man.”
Now, bearing this fact in mind, we are
forced to the conclusion that the solution
of the whole question lies in the determ
ination of the following point: in the
great problen of Life, which of these two
elements is the means and which the
end? Is the object of Being, the devel
opment of the individual or the exalta
tion of the social fabric ? In other
words, was man made for society, or so
ciety for man ? Unquestionably, the
last hypothesis is the true one ; for the
sole object of the social system is the
melioration of the individual. What
says Collard, “Human societies are bom,
live and die upon the earth; there they ac
complish their destinies; but they con
tain not the whole man. After his en
gagement to society, there still remains
in him the more noble part of his na
ture ; those liigh faculties by which he
elevates himself to God, to a future life
and to the unknown blessings of an in
visible world We, individuals, each
with a separate and distinct existence,
with an identical person—we, truly be
ings endowed with immortality—we
have a higher destiny than that of
States.
And now, my friends, what is the conclu
sion of the whole matter 1 Perhaps you
will say, “the man has been talking all
of this time to urge upon hs to educate
our children! We are anxious to educate
them and need no urging.” If I have
done no more than this—then my labor
and your attention has been wasted
indeed. But have I done no more than
this ? Is the education which I have in
sisted upon the meagre, soulless, selfish
thing commonly implied by the word ?
Does the process which I have describ
ed to you consist merely in the punctu
al payment of tuition fees, and purchase
of school-books ? Is it even terminated
-Tiii :
whence he in many instances, issues, af
ter four years so-called study, with
“isms” in his head, a cigar in his mouth,
a cane in his hand, and the devil in his
heart ? “Perhaps not,” you reply ; but
what can Ido 1 The fault lies in the
system, and ’tis the part of you educa
tors to correct that! “Let the galled
jade wince ; our withers are unwrung !”
There are faults in the system and it is
our part to correct them, but there are
faults and shortcomings in your depart
ment of the work too, and God will hold
you responsible for them. What can
you do? you ask. Well, first of all, you
can realize and make your child realize the
nature of the work of education. Much aye,
the greatest part of your duty will be
done when you have accomplished this
end. Bring home to yourself and, at
the earliest possible moment, to him, the
true objects of living. The wise old
Westminster divines rightfully made
that the first and most conspicuous
point in their theological creed; viz:
“What is the chief end of man ?”
“Man’s chief end is to glorify
God, and enjoy him forever 1”
What is the object of education ? Not
to make money ; not to gain influence;
not to be successful in life; not even to
attain happiness; “but to glorify
God, and enjoy Him forever 5” to exalt
and expand our whole being, mental,
moral and physical, to the standard of
fierfection set up for our imitation in
the person of our Lord and Saviour,
Jesus Christ. Then, indeed, we shall be
happy, not because we made happiness
the end of existence, but because God
Eunised that if we sought “first the
gdom of God and His righteous
ness, all things shall be added unto
us.”
The practical deductions from re
marks already too long protracted, are
such as to suggest themselves to all.
We have seen that the practical utili
itarian tendencies of a man’s mind need
no encouragement; that they are hadry
plants of indigenous growth, which
flourish without cultivation.
We have seen that the spiritual, ethe
rial dispositions of the soul require fos
tering ; they are tender; they are deli
cate; they are weak; they must be
sliielded from the hot simoon of world
liness, or they will wilt, and droop and
die.
The Philanthropist is interested in
this question, for Ms genuine love of Ms
species must make Mm long to see them
happier, purer and more elevated in the
scale of being.
The Christian is warmly enlisted in
this cause, for Ms object is to wean men
away from the broken cisterns and bit
ter waters of tMs unsatisfactory world,
and to lead them to streams of living
waters and through green pastures,
where God shall wipe away all tears
from their eyes.
The Teacher in every stage of that
vastly important profession, has especial
need to study carefully, the bearings of
tMs subject; for according to the seed
planted by him, will spring up trees,
bearing the fruits of everlasting life, or,
yielding apples of Sodom, all bright and
golden to the sight, but turning to bit
ter ashes upon the lips.
, Ah! methinks I see him now—“life’s
young pilgrim”—leaving the calm haven
of academic seclusion, and spreading his
exultant sails upon the surging waters of a
wide and “rainy sea.” I see the healthful
bloom upon his glowing cheek; mark the
j oyous glitter of his undimmed eye; I hear
the ringing tones of his youthful voice.
Life fresh, ardent, enthusiastic life, with all
of its novelty, its promise and vitality,
are his—and he scents the sear-breeze, and
longs for the billow’s deep soar. Long
years have rolled by, and the time and
the tide, which wait for no man, have
swept him far far away. What a change
—what a sadening melancholy change!
Age and trouble have furrowed his once
unwrinkled brow—time and infirmities
have paled his once ruddy cheek—the
gathering shades of the evening have
dulled his lustrous eye; there were the
inevitable conditions of nature—but oh!
more than spirit is broken,
once so elastic and free ; the heart is
callous and hardened, once warm and
out-gushing; the soul is suspicius and
selfish, which was trustful and disinter
ested What strange spell has wrought
this fatal metamorphosis ? What magic
incantation has drugged into death-like
slumber the noblest aspirations of his
being? ’Tis the crushing, contracting,
suffocating spirit of worldliness ; ’tis the
hot breath of a selfish utilitarianism,
which has withered and scorched, until
they died, the finest sensibilities of his
nature. Oh! once how buoyant and
hopeful; now how distrustful and de
spondent ! Then he stood forth glorying
in the joyous consciousness of his
strength ; now, Hercules has put on the
fiery tunic of Nessus—let him mount his
funeral pyre and die.
BAILBOAD MEETING AT HARTWELL.
Proceedings of a railroad meeting
held in Hartwell, Ga., July Ist, 1873, in
the interest of the great railroad enter
prise, which is now being proposed from
Chicago to the sea board, via the. Augus
ta and Hartwell Railroad.
Read minutes of our last meeting,
which were unanimously adopted
At our last meeting the following
resolutions were unanimously adopt
ed:
Whereas, We have heard with great
gratification, that there is a prospect of
the Augusta & Hartwell Railroad being
built in connection with a great through
line from the West to the sea, and in
consequence of formidable competition
from two rival routes, to wit: one by
Anderson, and the other by Athens, it
becomes essential to the success of the
Augusta & Hartwell Railroad that the
nearest, most direct, and cheapest should
be selected for the location of said road;
therefore,
Rf.9ot.vkt)- ■ u — ■ J tonta.jvo .nww*— 1
-as SttcEJisto follow the line of the Blue
Ridge Railroad to Beneca City, [the
junction of the Blue Ridge Road with
the Air Line Railroad], thence to Ander
sonville, thence down the valley of the
Savannah River to Augusta.
Resolved, That to atttain the data
requirite to make this appear, it be
comes necessary that a competent sur
vey should be made of raid route, and
therefore we organize ourselves into an
association, for the purpose of having
the survey made through Hart coun
ty
Resolved, That a committee of one
from each district of the county, inter
ested in this route, be appointed to can
vass for subscriptions for this purpose,
and that said committee meet in Hart
well, to report on Monday the 16th
inst.
Resolved, That we invite delegations
from similar committees, to meet us on
that day, from Elbert county, and An
derson, S. C., and that said committees,
if the necessary funds be raised, be em
powered to have the survey made imme
diately.
The various committees on making
their reports, on the 16th inst., guaran
teed the necessary amount for the pur
pose of making the survey, and from a
statement received here to-day, the
corps of engineers employed, commenc
ed the survey last Monday, starting from
Seneca City, and expect to reach this
neigborhood very soon.
The committees, on again reporting
to-day show that the necessary amount
of money has been subscribed in this
county, and Dr. Clark, the delegate from
Elbert county, guaranteed the necessary
amount from that county.
Motion made and carried, that the of
ficers of the Agricultural Society, preside
over our Railroad Association.
Heard a few remarks from Dr. Clark,
of Ruckersville, who feels sanguine of
success, in this being the line eventually
built, as a link of the great through line.
He urges it important to our interests,
that we have a convention, to be held as
soon as possible, composed of all the
citizens interested along the line, from
Walhalla to Augusta, for the purpose of
more effectually uniting our organiza
tion.
Motion made, and unanimously car
ried, that a “Grand Railroad Mass
Meeting,” be held in this place, on the
first Tuesday in August, and a general
invitation is hereby cordiolly extended
all persons interested in this railroad;
and especially those living along the
route, on both sides of the river, from
Seneca City to Augusta. Also that
speakers from a distance be invited to be
present to address the meeting.
Motion made and carried, that invita
tions be sent to the following gentlemen
to be present as speakers:
Gen. Harrison, Anderson, S. C.; Dr.
Casey, Augusta; Dr. Wilkes, Linconton,
Ga.; Hon. Elbert M. Rucker, Ruckers
ville, Ga.; Hon. Henry R. Moore, Au
gusta ; Jas. Jackson, Augusta ; and also
this invitation is extended to all others
interested to be present on the occasion
as speakers.
Motion made and carried, that a com
mittee be appointed who shall solicit
speakers to attend this meeting. The
following were appointed: Dr. Clark, of
Ruckersville,' and Dr. J. L. Turner, and
Capt. J. T. Craft, of Hartwell.
Motion made and carried that the
Secretary be requested to send copies
of these proceedings to Walhalla, An
derson and Athens newspapers, also to
the Chronicle & Sentinel, of Augusta,
and the Elberton Gazette, all of which
are respectfully requested to publish the
same.
Adjourned until the first Tuesday in
August next

In the heat of Summer, frequently the Liver and

The startling drawback on nearly all medicinal
ager*s has ever been that in tlieir process of pur
gation and purification they have also debilitat
ed t-M system. To obviate this difficulty physi
cians have long sought for an agent that would
Purge, Purify and Strengthen
At one and tlie same time.
Tlieir research has at last been rewarded by a
discovery which fully realizes the fondest desires
of themedical faculty,and which is justly regard
ed as the most important triunq h that Pharmacy
has ever achieved. This important desideratum is
Dr. Tutt’s Vegetable Liver Pills
Which purify the blood and remove all corrupt
humors and unhealthy accumulations from the
body, and yet produces no weakness or lassitude
whatever,but on the contrary tones the stomach
and invigorates the body during the progress of
their operation. They unite the heretofore irrec
oncilable qualities of a Strengthening Purgative
and a Purifying Tonic.
Dp.. Tutt’s Pills are the most active and
searching medicine in existence. They at once
attack the very root of diseases, and their action
is so prompt that in an hour or two after they
are taken the patient is aware of theirgood effects.
They may be taken at anytime without restraint
of diet or occupation; they produce neither nau
sea, griping or debility, and as a family medicine
they have no rival.

After having given the above Knitting Ma
chine a fair and impartial trial, the undersigned
has no hesitation in piououncing it a success
and recommending it to all who dcsiro to do all
kinds of knitti g rapidly and with a smooth
and even su face unattainable by the ordinary
hand work. It tarns the heal and narrows the
toe of a stocking beautifully. He believes a
pair tf ordinary stockings can be knit on the
machine in an hour. The stitch is the same
as that made by hand, and instead of being in •
terior, the work will be found to stand much
more usage, The machine can be seen in ope
ration at any time at my house.
