Transplanter
I S a most complete implement for transplanting all
kinds of plants. It is so constructed that it takes
up a portion of the earth with the plant and trans
plants it without disturbing the roots.
Corn and Cotton
can be transplanted with it, in dry weather, so that
these tender plants not only live but continue to grow
the same as if they had never bat removed. One
of tbe chief things to make a large yield of corn and
cotton to the acre is a perfect staud, which may now
be had by every farmer with the help of this valua
ble invention. Plants are set out rapidly and easily
and this implement will be worth hundreds of dollars
to any farmer. Price onlv $8-

The followiag Essay vtm read before
Montpelier Council, United Friends ot
Temperance, by Miss Mattie A. Single-
ton, of Eatonton Conned:
The paat which is partially obscured by
time’s frail misty curtain has recorded
npon the tablet of memory, the pains
and pleasures which each of ns have ex
perienced. An eminent writer once said:
“Let the past be as a grave and silence
forever rest npon it" But let it not be
60, though our pathways may have some
times been overspread by clouds of im
penetrable darkness; has it not been suc
ceeded by a ray of light which was ren
dered more brilliant, which also, was bet
ter appreciated than if we knew nothing
of adversity? Yet I fear we are too of
ten disposed to complain of Providence
for casting oar lots contrary to our own sel
fish and sinful wishes, never deeming God
an “all wise” Being. Could we view
things in their proper light and be more
trusting and devoid of suspicion, this
world in some degree would appear a
sunbeam out of Eden; a fleeting dream
of the future paradise of bliss. What a
pleasant retrospection to revert to the
happy days of innocent childhood,
ere the heart knew pain or woe! But
they are past, ami are but as a dream
that has bean, told, and changing years
have wrought many an hour of anguish
for our hearts; yet we find solace in al
lowing the mind tq wander back through
the vista of the past; therefrom calling up
some pleasant reminiscence of ih xe days;
when we were merely happy hearted chil
dren, deeming this world a paradise, and
life a blissful dream-
Bat alas! we have had.a gad awakening,
we have s^pmAhc yainbow tinted drepms
of chirtfeoodTa^away 'auo in their stead
stand the stern realities of life. Then,
it appears that the characteristic of
childhood which is pure, and nndefiled in
nocence, is prone to vanish. Thorns of en
vy and malice and such evils as beset
the human race are undoubtedly the
most heinous that ever emanated from
Pandora’s box. Could wc resist all at»
trocious temptations and lean to virtue’s
side, laurels of the fairest hue would deck
our brows, and success and prosperity
would attend ns in all of our undertak
ings. As we pass on in blissful ignore
ance of the future, who knows how soon
we may be overtaken by unutterable woe,
for to-day’we may be basking in the rays
of luxury, and tomorroir the luminous
smiles of plenty and happiness may van
ish. Hence it is the duty of man to be
grateful and to appreciate the manifold
blessings of *vhich he is the recipient
There is no condition to which the hu
man family is subjected but what could
be made worse, therefore, “boast not thy
self of tomorrow for thou knowest not
what a day may bring forth.” I dare say
there are but few of us who would, were
it possible, again participate in the
vicissitudes of our past lives. Though the
King” of day may have seen its rays
like a sea of glory along our pathways,
night, in its respective turn has come up*
on ns, for “Days of sunshine are given to
all.”
Though into each life some rain must
fall, should we have all joys and no sor
row we should know nothing of those
tears of sympathy whiclTfall as a healing
balm to the anguished heart.
The recollection of the past is a source
of eminent pleasure to those who are be*
reft of Father and Mother. Such revert to
the days when they listened with an at
tentive ear to the gentle voice of
mother and the kind instruction reitcra
ted by an indulgent father.
“There are momenta in life that are neyer forgot
Embalmed in the memory like gems set in gold
Which add a new ebarm to the happiest lot
And over life’s storms like rainbows unfurled.'’
Days, weeks and months glide on with
their noiseless tread leaving traces of sad
ness as well as gladness; for there is no
heart that has not experienced a pang;
though in many instances one’s face may
be wreathed in smiles; search in the deep
recesses of most hearts and behold the
deplorable sadness depicted there. Time !
Oh remorseless time, how unrelenting is
thy speed; but why should we complain?
Is not time given us, if we would only
improve those golden moments which we
let pass unheeded ? If we performed our
duty which is due to ourselves and the
donor of these precious moments, time
would not drag so heavily; but each day
wonld dawn, seeming brighter than the
last.
And in after years when burning to
survey the past, what unparalleled joy it
would be for us to have no cause for
blushes, aud fed no poignant sensation
of regret for any deed which we have com
mitted!
Often does our fancy-teke us back to
to the time when we were daily associa
ted with some loved one, who is now
clasped in the cold embrace of death. Fre
quently in imagination, their forms and
faces are before us, and we again hear
their well remembered voices. But such
meditations then, arouse within ns a
melancholy feeling, and again it is awaks
ened as we listen to the moanful rustling
of the Autumn leaves which like Ossian’s
music, is pleasant, though saddening to the
sonl, for it invariably brings to mind that
all things living must decay. The ma
jestic oak which now waves its massive
boughs laden with verdant foliage how
soon it will be deprived of its vividity and
the leaves lie scattered dead npon the
ground.
Time's movements, oh how fleet and
yet how Still! Still, as the morning sun
beam, as it kissed the blushing flower, but
shook not even the lingering dewdrops
from its leaves. Yet time lays its potent
touch upon all things, though noiselessly.
But its power is 'perceived. ‘ The strong
made weak. The stupendous suf
fers decay. Stately towering mansions
crumble to dust and all things are
revolutionized by the finger of Time.
Sterii fate has decreed our destiny to be
obscured ■within the mystic future and how
many air-castles are constructed that
are doomed to fall!
Bright hopes for the future may be
crushed, but
‘Lei fote do ber wont, there are rriice of joy,
Sweet dreams of the past, she cannot destroy,
TM earns tettiaaiffct-Umn of sorrow and care,
Aad reflect back the blushes which Joy uaud to wwar."
Mattie A. Singleton.

fatauie School.
We understand that the Board of
Trustees of this new educational enter
prise made a permanent organization un
der the charter recently obtained, cn the
13th inst at Miiledgeville, Ga. The Rev,.
Dr. Irvine was' chosen President of the
Board; CoL Wm. McKinley,Tiee-Presi
dent; and Geo. D. Case, M. D., Secreta
ry and Treasurer. Messrs. Josiah Sib
ley, Jno. Craig, and C. A. Rowland, ol
Augusta, were chosen and requested to
act as a committee to receive, invest, and
hold any funds or other donations to the
Tahnage School. The Committee is the
same as the one named in the action of
the Synod of Georgia, when taking the
initiative'in the enterprise. Such an or
ganization with such names on its roll of
managers is a guarantee to the Church
that the affairs of the Tahnage School
will be wisely and prudently directed.
A committee was appointed to confer
with Mr. B. T. Hunter, the eminently
successful teacher, and rector-.elect of the
Talmage School, as to liis acceptance of
the post, and as to the feasibility ef
opening the school in October next with
him at its head. There are strong hopes
of being able to open at that time, al
though the state of the finances of the
country may make it best to wait a little
longer. The opening is only a question
of time. Already repairs liave been be>-
gun on the large building at Midway,
which is to be used for the school. With
real estate worth at least fifteen or twenty
thousand dollars at Midway! and a good
prospect of its increase to perhapff $25, -
000 to begin with surely tbe Church,
even in her poverty, can build up aa
institution so closely connected with her
future welfare. The Georgia Synod
needs a training school for her sons un
der religions influences, a nursery for fu
ture ministers. Both of these points are
aimed at in establishing the Talmage
School. We wish the school the highest
success. A communication in another
column on this subject will no doubt
greatly interest our readers.—Ed. S.
Preshyrian.

Now these things are not (tiJHndt to make;
simply require cue from beginiag to
end. Coffee begin* with the parching,
which must be done slowly, attiring all the
time. Let every grain be as near the
same color as possible, which should be
a rich brown all through—a mahogany
color. Break a grain and see that it bas
the same color inside as out. If it is
parched too rapidly, or not stirred con
stantly, it will be black on the outside;
and still light inside; this gives the coffee
when made a bumty taste, instead of the
rich flavor it should liave.— The parching
being properly done, put it np in an air
tight can for use. Next comes the mak
ing. To a quart of water take an ordi
nary sized tea-cup of coffee, grind it toe,
if care is not taken to screw the
mill up tight, the grains will be merely
chopped up, (which is the common way
with careless servants,) and the coffee
will be weak and poor—let the grains be
ground to a flour; then mix the ground
coffee with sufficient water to moisten it
and, stir in the white of an egg—pour on
the quart of boiling water and let it boil
15 or 20 minutes. While -it-is boiling,
stir down all the grounds that boil np to
the side of the ooffee-pot, and pour a lit
tle out of the spout to clear it of grounds
also. Coffee should be drank as soon as
made; it loses its aroma by standing. For
this reason too, it should be brought to
table in the same coffee pot in which it is
boiled; it loses more or less of its flavor
by being ponred from one vessel to anoth
er. Those therefore, who can afford the
luxury of a silver urn on their table, can
never have the perfection of coffee. The
serving np also, is not an unimportant
item. Sweet, rich cream is absolutely es
sential to a first class cup of coffee, and I
think white sugar. This however, is a
matter of taste. Some prefer brown—
there are however, no two opinions on the
other point—You cannot have excellent
coffee however-well-made, without cream.
Tea requires to be steeped, not boiled;
a sufficient amount ofleaves must be used
to insure strength without having to
steep very long. If it stands long, it ac
quires a flatness of taste whieh is not
pleasant; and if bo9ed it is apt to taste
rough. The water shonld be boiling

Beast Bctleb Demoralized.—The re
cent developments of the Sanborn inves
tigation seem to have taken the starch
out of Beast Butler, whose chief business
it has been to champion every rascality
that has been brought under the review
of the Congressional investigating eomi«
mittees. It is well known that Sanborn
and Jayne were the creatures of Butler,
and it wonld seem that the testimony be
fore the investigating committee has de
veloped the intimate relations between the
parties. Under these circumstances it is
not surprising that the Beast, after all
his blaster finds himself unable to face
the music. The Washington correspon
dent of the Journal of Commerce says:
“The conduct of General Butler in re
fusing to pick up the gauntlet thrown
down in the moiety and Sanborn contract
matters is the subject of much discussion
here. He said two months ago with a
great deal of earnestness that he would
“fight Jayne’s fight if itself stood in
the way.” But when the time came he
was as gentle as a frightened tumblebug
waiting to be stepped on. He was at one
time very determined in his friendship
for John Sanborn, but the committee
waited and waited for him to fight only
to see him (when the fight came) study
ing up the duty on still wines and the
foreign value of Italian maccaroni. The
General is evidently demoralized. Au
dacity gave way to discretion for once.”
Civil Rights, Douglas and Lincoln-
In view of recent events at Washing"
ton, it is proper to refresh our memories
occasionally, and show how bravely we
are moving onward and upward to per
fection. Since Abraham Lincoln is the
great exemplar of Republicanism, and
Douglas of Northern Democratic states
manship, we reproduce what both these
men were accustomed to say :
I hold that this Government was made
on the white basis, by white men, for
the benefit of white men, and their pop
terity forever, and should be administer
ed by white men, and none others. I
do rot believe that the Almighty made
the negro capable of self government.—
Stephen A. Douglas.
I am not, nor never have been, iu favor
of making voters or jurors of negroes,
nor qualifying them to hold office, nor
intermarrying them with white people;
and I will say in addition to. this, that
there is a physical difference between the
white and black races which, I believe,
will forever forbid the two races living
together on terms of social and political
equality; and, inasmuch as they cannot so
live, while they do remain together, there
must be a position of superior and infe
rior, and I, as much as any other man,
am in favor of having this superior posi
tion assigned to the white race.—Abra
ham Lincoln.

said to
be worn out sinee they are no longer
productive. We now want the best and
cheapest plan of renovating these lands,
so as to grow remunerative crops. To
do this, we must have our lands charged
with a good supply of vegetable matter
to make the land lively and productive.
This can only be obtained by tbe turning
under of green crops, %nd afterwards a
judicious rotation of crops ; in doing this,
we can only cultivate what lands we can
manure well, *r such as have not been
exhausted. Let us take the worn lands
in the fall, break thoroughly and sub
soil; in the spring, plough again and sow
to peas about the first of June and har
row them in. Turn under the peas in
September and sow to rye, and pasture
through the winter with sheep; the
second spring turn under rye at proper
time aad again sow to peas, these in turn
to be ploughed in September; then in
October by sowing one bushel of wheat
and thirty bushels of cotton seed per
acre, and harrowing in well, with clover
seed lightly harrowed in the spring, you
are ready for a judicious system of ro
tation of crops, say cotton, corn, wheat
and clover. If lime can procured at
reasonable prices, it should be used
where green crops are turned under.—

Oossip About the Wedding.
Who Mr. Bartons is—the Queen's Part
in the Alliance—“Bouquet Johnny”
and His $1,800.
The Woshingthon correspondent of
the Journal of Commerea, who can write
entertainingly on other topics than fi
nance and trade when he wishes, gives
some interesting facts in connection with
the wedding which have not hitherto
appeared elsewhere. He says:
People who know the modest and
retty young lady who was Miss Nellie
rant appreciate her. Few girls of her
age—she is only eighteen—would have
borne with such admirable temper and
discretion the flattery and attentions that
beset a President's daughter. She quits
single life with the esteem of everybody
here. She deserves a good husband,
and naturally, then, the inquiry is made
as to whether she has got one.
WHO MR. SARTOB1S IS.
Mr. Sartoris came here with English
dress, address and manners. He parts
Lis hair in the middle and spells his name
in the middle. He wore while about his
hotel a “swallow-tail” coat and slippers
with bows on; and in short bis minor
ways were so un-American that he was
looked upon as a “snob." But the young
men grew rather fond of him, for al
though he is only twenty-three years of
age, and acts yonng, he was Tound to be
made of manly stuff and even capable of
teaching older people gentlemanly traits.
Many were amused at a diversion of his
at the gymnasium, where, to the surprise
of all, he
PUMMELLED THE BURLY TUTOR OF BOXING
tfll that personage was satisfied; and to
tb* further surprise of the young men he
plays a good game at billiards or whist
Mr. Sartoris is a descendant of the ^us
goenot refugees. His father, a Conser
vative, and one of tbe bast known mem
bers of file Carlton Club, is a prominent
merchant, and does a huge East India
business. His uncle Samuda, M. P., also
of the Huguenot refugees, is known as
the largest shipbuilder on the Thames,
and an authority iu the navy debates in

THE HARD-PAN SIDE Of IT.
As to temporalities, Mr. Sarto is suc
ceeds to more money than lie cai ei sily

own perhaps half a million dollars worth
of property.
To sum it all up, the agreetble an

cannot fail to cement more strongly tho

tween Great Britain and the United
States.
Mr. and Mrs. Sartoris will probably bo

and then become permanent residents of
this country.
“BOUQUET JOHNNY,” TUB (’MNIPIiESINT.
I rhet a man Saturday in New York
whom many known as “Bouquet Johnny.”
He had a large carpet-bag in one hand
and eighteen $100 bills in the other. H«
said (and I knew it to be true) that he had
furnished tire family bouquets and floral
adornments for the wedding, and that tlw*
President had just paid him £1,800 “liko
a little man.” “Johnny, ” who was evi
dently sober, said ho was going with the
bridal couple on the Baltic to Europe to
continue his floral occupation on i.he voy
age, and that he was tlu'n on his vay to
the steamer.
JL Desperate Came.
The most sensible article we have seen
on the Civil Rights bill, so-called, as it
passed tho Senate, is in the New York
Herald of a very recent date. Th great
New York journal regar ds the passai e of
this abomination as an evidence oi tlia
triumph of mere demagogism over st? tess
manship ; as the scurvy trick of pot house
politicians to effect their selfish aggrans
dizement by “kissing the dust on the
shoes of the negro voterand a type of
the total disregard by the Radical Repub
lican party of the Constitution of the
country. The Herald very properly
regards tills iniquitous measure as an
attempt to inflict a last and mortal wound
upon the local self-government of the
States. A more unwarrantable interfer
ence with private rights has never been
perpetrated in this land: and if the peo
ple of the North are content to allow
Congress the liberty of dictating' who
shall and shall not frequent hotels, com
mon schools, theatres, churches, etc., tha
time is not distant when the Central
Authority will seize upon every private
right, and liberty will perish as utterly
at the East and West as it has virtually
become paralyzed at tbe South.
The following pertinent question is ask
ed:
If our common schools and our pnblio
hospitalities and our pauper graveyards
were purchased and supported by taxes
levied on the whole people of the United
States it would be bnt rational tliat tha
national legislature should have the right
to say who should be taught or physic
ked or buried in them. But as Congress
does not furnish one copper toward tha
support of the public schools or publia
hospitals of this city, whence does it de*
rive any right to say that a colored man
or any other soit of man shall be received
into them if the local manager decree
otherwise?
Already tbe proposition is bruited to
place telegraph and railway lines under
Government control, and ail insidious
scheme was not long ago in vogue look
ing to the subjection of the school sys
tem to the supervision of the National
Power. A National system of education
is but the precursor of a National church,
and these twin monstrosities would bo tha
forerunners of absolute despostism over
the bodies minds and souls of the peo-4
pie.
As the case stands, the Constitution of
tlie United States is embraced, by tha
Radical doctrinaires, in a clause of the
Fourteenth amendment which gives Con
gress the power to enforce “by appro-
poiato legislation" the provisions of that
article. Tliis is a case of the tail wag
ging the dog with a vengeance. Thera
is not a political infamy impossible oE
perpetration under that comprehensive
clause, especially as all else in the Nation
al Charter is looked upon with con«i
tempt.
The Herald sums up the mischief crea
ted by this useless and uncalled for bill
as follows:
It directly provokes, excites and culti
vates the antipathies of race and cas!e by
forcing into prominence distinctio 1 . that
are ineradicable. It enforces confL by
causing the law to give an equality which
tho Creator has denied, and ruinously
injures the race it pretends to ser e by
placing it in a position of antagonism to
a superior and dominant race. Nt laws
on such subjects are sound or efi ctiva
save in so far as they arc declarato- y of
actual conditions. If the law designates
a line of action that is in accord wit i tho
tendencies of human pride and pt <siott
there is harmonious operation ; but f tho
law and human nature are in conflic it is
human nature that prevails, and nvery
ineffective law that is ma<k is a uirecfc
loss to the moral power of ths State.
The whole thing may be boiled down
to two points, at last: a bid for the negro
vote and hatred of the South We would
fain believe with tlie Herald, however,
that it is the desperate gambler’s last
stake; that “there is no rational proba
bility tliat after tins Congress there will
ever be another with a Republican major
ity; but if there is it will only be through
negro votes, and thus they venture all tho
claim they have on the white man :or a
desperate endeavor to gain the negio.”—•
