ORIGIN OF SUNDAY SCHOOLS.
The originator of Sunday Schools,
which have shed so beneficent a light over
the Christian world, was Robert Ratves
who was bom in the city of Gloucester,
England, September 14, 1736. His fa
ther was a practical printer, and was the
publisher of the “Gloucester Journal.”
Robert was also brought up to the prin.-
ter s trade, and succeeded his father as
publisher of this newspaper. Kis first
humanitarian movement of note was a
sensible and well directed effort to relieve
the wants and mitigate the sufferings of
the prisoners committed to the Bridewell
Prison of Gloucester. This brought him
to seek the causes of poverty and crime,
and led him to the conclusion that they

Notwithstanding the pr#Vefbial cheap'-,
ness of the expression We write as the
caption hereof, we heartily commend as
worthy of high price in the way of serious
consideration the following extract from
the new work on “Education of Girls"
just published by the Putnams of New
York:
ADVICE TO MOTHERS AND GIRLS.
I have spoken of the importance of thor
ough healthful training of body and mind
in view of the natural conditions of mar
riage and maternity, which may be the
lot of every woman. It is not possible
to overstate the importance or the sancti
ty of these relations, but it is possible to
look so much at the mere outside facts of
marriage as to ignore its real meaning.
The woman, falsely or carelessly mated,
is far less married than she who keeps
her ideal high and true, and remains
single; not because she values marriage
1 THE THINT1.K.
| (From Owen Meredith's “Fables iu Verse’’ recently
published)
It was a thoru,
And it stood forlorn
In tbe burning sunrise land:
A blighted thorn,
And at eve and morn,
Thus it sighed to ttie desert sand :
"No mown have I.
For a erowu I sigh,
For a crown I have not found.’’
“A crown 1 a crown!
A crown of mine own
To wind in a roaideu’s liair !'
Sad thorn, why grieve ?
Thou a crow n shall trer.ve
But not for maiden to wear.
That crown shall sbino
When all orowuj save thine
With the glory they gave are gone.
For thorn, my thorn.
Thy crown shall be worn

cliiidliood. To remove these causes, he j reverence to enter into it lightly or
falsely. And the mother has far more
established the first Sunday School in
1781, in the city of Gloucester, his native
city.
While the experiment was in its early
stage, lie paid teachers a shilling per day,
each, for their services. The effects were
admirable and soon attracted great atten
tion. Competent teachers volunteered
their services without monetary reward ;
and thus this beneficent system was fairly
launched upon a needy world. Other
schools were speedily established, and
Mr Bailees not only, in his life, superin
tended personally the instruction of about
3000 poor children, but lent an active
help in giving advice on the subject to
people at a distance who corresponded
with him on the subject. In 17Hf» a so-
ci ty was formed for the establishment
an l support of Sunday Schools through
out Great Britain, and the dignitaries of
the churches commended the enterprise.
In the first dozen years more than a quar
ter of a million of children of Great
Britain had been enrolled as Sunday
School pupils. Mr. Raikes lived to see
Sunday Schools established in America,
and devoted a great share of his remaining
life to the noble enterprise. He died
April 5, 1811.
The Sunday School system in America
has assumed features somewhat different
from that of Great Britain. In the latter,
no pecuniary contribution is expected or
sought from Sunday School pupils. The
original design is followed still in Great
Britain, to impart to children “without
money and without price” primary ele
ments of literary and Christian instruc
tion. We are compelled to doubt wheth
er the American deviation is an improve-,
ment. There is danger, in our opinion,
of the neglect of many very poor people
to send their children to Sunday Schools
where the pressing demands of food and
raiment require and consume for home
use every cent of the week’s earnings.—
The monetary contribution to Sunday
Schools may not be required as a condi
tion of admittance to these schools in
America ; but very freqnently these very
poor people have seen better circum
stances; they are continually impressed
disagreeably with tlio different social
“status" meted out to them since they
became very poor, by the worldly-minded
monster termed “good societyand they
are unwilling their children, in coarse at
tire and defaulters in the usual contribu
tion, should feel the disparaging force of
association with those in better circum
stances, butter-fly apparel,and with “ready
cash." Often, those who never had or
lost wealth, have all of these sensitive
feelings ; and upon the whole, we consid
er the old English system the better as
bringing the greatest blessings to the
largest number. w. o. m.
GOITER IN GEORGIA.
\Y e believe that it is not generally
known that a copper mine has been sue
cessfully opened in Middle Georgia.
A company duly incorporated under
the name of “ The Belle Green Mining
Company" is engaged in active and pro
fitable mining operations at a point north
east about five miles from Union Point
on the Georgia Railroad. As 3-et this
.Company has not erected a smelting fur-
nance : but the ore extracted from this
mine is sufficiently rich to justify its
transportation in the form in which it is
taken from the mine, that it may be con
verted into metallic copper at other
points.
The Belle Green Company has sunk a
main shaft to the depth of 109 feet, ma
king lateral shafts at such places as the
richness of the veins of copper justify.
Four of these: lateral shafts extend from
a point 100 feet below the surface. The
main vein of copper deposit varies from
30 to 40 l'eet in thickness ; and from this,
smaller ‘leads' diverge in various direc
tions.
The prospect is line for the develop
ment. in this locality, of copper mines
quite as extensive and more profitable
than the famous Ducktown mines in Ten
nessee. Ore was reached containing 30
per cent of metallic copper only ten feet
from the earth’s surface: and the quality
has improved as the shaft has descended.
This is an old mine. It was first open
ed superficially about the year 1809, but
was abandoned from the want of capital
or enterprise, or both. A short time
prior to the Great War between the States,
other parties stink a shaft to the depth
of 36 feet, and extracted metallic copper
from the ore by means of a small and im
perfect blacksmith’s forge. The War
speedily suspended these operations.—
The present Company’ (named from a
beautiful and worthy young lady of Co
lumbus the “Belle Green Company ’) is
amply provided with money to push the
enterprise to success, and some of the
ablest scientists and practical men of the
South are in control of these operations
The accomplished Chemist, Mineralogist
and Geologist of our State University,
Prof. H. C. White, has practical connex
ion with the mine; and Mr. P. H. Mell,
Jr., another thorough young scientist, is
the Chemist at the mines, and gives his
whole attention to the mining operations.
We owe to the kind courtesy of Mr. Mell

need to fit her daughter to meet nobly
the possibilities of unwedded life, than
even the duties of marriage. Marriage is
so perfectly natural a state that it reveals
its own laws; and a simple, healthful,
happy, trusting love will guide women
more wisely than much precept. But
in our present social state, the probabili
ty for any girl is by no means small that
she may be called on to live out her life
without entering upon this blessed
relation. If she has been taught that
woman's sphere is marriage and marriage
alone—that only by that means can she
hope for a life of hapiness, usefulness,
and respect, she will probably become a
miserable, helpless, lonely, irritable
woman—perhaps seeking marriage at
any price to escape from the condition
she dreads; or failing that, finding life
without purpose, occupation, or delight.
But if she has learned that Providence is
boundless in its resources, and that when
one way’ is closed another is opened, so
that “all things work together for good-,"
if she knows that her nature will he far
ffobler without the form of marriage
unless the spirit and truth can be present
also, she will find that there is a life open
to her—a life of devotion to truth, right,
and beauty, of service to humanity, and
of love just as noble and true as she
could attain in marriage. She is not fit
to marry until sho is fit to stand alone.
Unless life has a purpose and meaning of
its own to her husband, she cannot bring
him an equal dower, and she has no test
of the new feeling which should take its
value from the richness of the life that
she is ready to blend with another’s.
Nothing marks the progress in the eleva
tion of woman, during the last half centu
ry, moTe than the passing away of the
opprobrious use of the term “old maids,”
which is now rarely hearth It is possible
to remain unmarried from low motives,
shrinking from the duties and responsi
bilities of the relation, or from a worldly
ambition for higher station than love can
offer. Such sin brings its own terrible
punishment with it. But far more often
is it from a high ideal of marriage, from
true nobility of character, or from devo
tion to some other relation which seem
ed paramount, that a woman remains
single. How many a woman, hiding in
her secret heart the romance that gave a
charm to her youth, but did not find its
reality in life, has devoted herself to the
service of humanity with all the passion-^ (yTim ”
ate devotion of a lover to his mistress ? 0
Of such an one, to whom hundreds of
helpless babes looked up as to a guar
dian and protector, an artist said: “Sho
has the mother in her face.” We owe
too much to this noble class of women,
in art, literature, and philanthropy, and
in the service of the country in its most
trying hoiu’, ever to forgot their claims;
and he will be forever stigmatized as
unworthy of the name of pure and noble
manhood who sneers at the virtue which
he cannot understand, or villiiies with
opprobrious epithets the noble women
whom Theodore Parker—God bless him
for the word—called his “glorious phas
laux of old maids.”
Another wrong is often done to the
young girl, under the name of prudence
or worldly wisdom, by breaking down
her ideal of life, and especially her ideal
of the possible partner of her future life.
Tennyson speaks of one form of this, in
addressing the vain coquette as the pos
sible mother:—

Since you invite me in your paper to

tion of the Catholic Church and mixed
mightily with the citizens and visitors
froft Macon. A mighty good friend of
mine that lives in Milledgeville gave me
a hint how I could know a Milledgeviller
from a Maconer. It was by cheicin' the
cud. The Maconers haint improved up
to chewin yet; they’ll get at it after while.
I asked my friend how long it had been
goin' on, and how the cud-chewin’ revi
val had got started. It seems that a great
Britisher named Darwin has discovered
that all humans are descended from bed
bugs, snakes and the like, and by cunning
improvements in the stock these breeds
have finally blossomed out into women
and men. I think Darwin is right, be-
kase we find among human creeters some
that suck the blood out of your good
name or bite you like pizen snakes when
they get a chance eveD yet. My friend
said that the Lord seen' now that human
creeturs were often worse behaved and
crueler than brutes, had determined to
fetch them back to brutes again: and the
first stop was to set them all to chewin’
the cud like cattle. The next step will
be to take the form of cuttle—hoofs,
horns, tail and all! So my friend said—
remarking that these cuds that they chew
all the time, day and night, in church, out
of church, chew at all times and places, is
now bought in the stores of the city, at
accommodating prices; but very soon the
cuds will come as nateralto ’em as to cows,
and they won't have to pay any money
for ’em when they get to eatin’ grass and
hay.
Now, Dir. Editor, what have you to say
about it ? Malindy Milker.
Vie reply that we agree exactly with
Malindy’s informant: Chewing the cud
is certainly one step towards brutish
ness. We had not observed that all Mil
ledgeville chews the cud of “chewing
Is not the fair Malindy mistaken"?

MOZART’S REQUIEM.
One day, as Mozart was seated in his
study, in a profound reverie, ho heard a
carriage stop at the door. A stranger
was announced, who asked to speak with
him. He was an aged man, very well
dressed, of noble and imposing manners.
He said to the composer :
“I am commissioned by a great mau to
come and find you.”
“The name of this man, if you please,”
said Mozart.
“He does not wish to be known.”
•V ery well. "What are his wishes?”
“He has lost a very deal- friend, whose
memory will lie forever precious to him.
He wishes to commemorate her death
every year by a solemn service, and he
wants you to compose a requiem for the
occasion.”
Mozart was deeply impressed by these
words spoken so solemnly, aud by the
air of mystery that seemed to pervade
the interview. He promised to compose
the requiem. The stranger continued:
“Put to this work your entire genius,
for you compose it for a connoisseur in
music.”
“So much the better,” said Mozart.
“How much time do vou want for the

VERY SENSIBLE
American men and women are nervous,
and naturally have nervous children,
of slender physique, and easily excited
into precocious intelligence, which is con
sidered genius. Instead of letting the
little creature suck its fists and grow fat,
it is jumped and danced and confused
and made to repeat like a parrot. The
English method of placing young chil
dren in the hands of experienced nurses
and making them responsible is much
better. A large, airy nursery at the top
of the hoiise-. a good, clean, wholesome
elgian, Swiss or Swedish woman to take
< tai ge of it; breakfast of oatmeal par-
i idge and milk; dinners of roast or boiled
, f ° r mu ttcn, and rice pudding; tea of
bread aud butter, milk and fruit, with no
confectionery or •‘pieces" between meals,
and no late visits or rides with mamma.
In such a quiet, uneventful atmosphere
tha baby grows and thrives best, the
child is subject to less excitement, and
with healthy and regular habits lays the
foundation of an excellent constitution,
while the mother is not worn out by its
constant presence, or made nervous by
being constantly harassed with giving
directions to ignorant and inexperienced
nurses.—Neic York Sun.

same thing to women. Love should see
in its object the very crown and glory of
creation.
The person love ton. doth fit,
Like manna, hath the taste of all in it.
But the low social standard of morals
and manners for man has so degraded
him that the very ideal of manhood is
belittled, and the mother warns her
daughter not to expect much from her
future husband; she has no right to hope
for the loyalty of Sir Philip Sydney, or
the pure ideality of Michael. Angelo. It
is a great wrong to man to demand so
little from him. All human beings, from
childhood upward, are stimulated by the
opinion entertained of them, and the
claims upon them for noble and high
behavior- Whatever your own experience,
do not thrust the poison of doubt and
unbelief in goodness into a daughter's
mind Let her keep her faith and her
romance, and look for a hero to win her
young heart. True, it is hard to see
a Thaddeus of Warsaw with a cigar in his
mouth, or to imagine Hamlet with a blue
veil about his hat; but, nevertheless, the
face of heroes is not extinct, and the
girl had better preserve her faith and
her love till the tine knight appears,
than accept the dreary belief that men are
alike unworthy, and that she must not
ask for a purity and truth which exist
only in the dreams of romance. Man’s
low idea of woman lias reacted upon
him; her elevation will restore him to his
true dignity, as equally entitled to spiri
tual and moral elevation of soul and
refinement of manner with herself. It is
as demoralizing to young women to hold
men in contempt as it is for young men
to have a low idea of women. “In honor
preferring one another” is the true con-,
dition of love, and no one lias truly loved
who has not exalted the beloved far above
one's self.
A young clergyman very deficient in
learning, complaining to Dr. Johnson
that, somehow or other, he had lost all

ted Dyonisius the younger, to dine with
him at Corinth, attempted to deride the
father of his royal guest because he had
blended the characters of prince and jxiet,
and had employed his leisure in writing
odes and tragedies. “How could the
King find leisure" asked Philip, “to write
such trifles/” “In those boors,” answer

Four weeks.”
“Well, I will come for it in four weeks,
what will be your price?”
“One hundred ducats.”
The stranger counted out the money
upon the table and disappeared. Mo
zart remained plunged in deep thought
for a few moments, then called for pen,
ink and paper, aud began to write the re- |
quiein. Notwithstanding the rernon- j
strances of his wife, he wrought upon it '
night and day. But his body, already j
feeble, could not endure this continual
strain, and he finally fell fainting at his
task. Then he was obliged to rest. Sev |
eral days after his wife sought to divert ■
his mind from its sadness by some play :
ful remark. He replied earnestly :
“One thing is certain, I am composing .
my own requiem; it will serve to perpetu.;
ate my own memory.”
In proportion as he wrought, his '
strength diminished from day to day, and
the requiem advanced very slowly. The |
four weeks are finally gone, and the ;
stranger returns.
“It has been impossible for me to keep
my word,” said Mozart sadly.
“Never mind,” said the man. “How
much more time do you require?”
“I want four weeks more. The work
has inspired me with deeper interest than
I supposed, and I have given to it more
study than I intended.”
“In that case it is right tliat I increase
the price. Here are fifty ducats more
for your pay.”
In astonishment, Mozart asked; “Who
are you ?”
“That is nothing to the purpose. I
will return in four weeks.”
As the stranger left the house Mozart
called a servant and requested him to fol
low this extraordinary man and find out
who he was; bat the blundering man
soon returned, saying that he could find
no trace of him. Poor Mozart liad con
ceived the idea that this stranger was no
ordinary mortal; but was one of his friends
in the immortal world, sent to warn him
of his approaching death. He applied
himself with redoubled ardor to his re
quiem, which he regarded as the most
enduring monument to his genius. He
fainted many times at his toil. Finally,
it was accomplished before the expiration
of the four weeks.
The stranger came for it at the given
time, but Mozart was dead.
The Peruvian Surtm, a Protect

Iron, is so combined as to have
the character of an aliment, as
easily digested and assimilated

BLOOD !
“ A corrupt tree,’’ sailli the Inspired Volume,
“bringeth forth not good fruit,” nor can coirupt blood
impart health, beauty and good tU-sdi, or spirits. ‘-The
Blood is the Life,” and health can ouly be enjoyed in
its full perfection where the blood is kept in a pure and
unoorrupted state, henre the necessity of pure blood,
to give health, beauty, buoyant spirits, long life and
happiness.
AN IMPURE CONDITION OF TOE BLOOD
manifests itself in different forms ef diseases, such as
Tetter, Salt Rlteurn,Scald-head, Ring-worms, Pimples,
Blotches, Spots, Eruptions, Pustules, Boils, Carbun
cles, Sore Eyes, Bough Skin, Sourt, Scrofulous Sores,
Swellings, Fever Sores, White Swellings, rjypiaiMrc
affection? of the ?kin, Tlirouf and llones, "Ulcers of the
Liver,.Stomach, Kidneys, Lunge and Uterus.
In this condition of tilings something is needed at
once to cleanse the blood, aud neutralize Ibe insidious
poison that
BURNS LIKE A TERRIBLE FiKK
as it courses through tbe veins, sow mg seeds of death
witb every pulsation.
Dr. Pemberton’s Compound Extract of Stillingia
(or Queen’s Delight) will positively effect this desid
eratum, expelling every trace of "disease from the
blood end system, and leavingthe skin
SOFT, FAIR AND BEAUTIFUL
For all diseases of tbe blood, liver and kidneys, this
Great Vegetable Alterative is without a rival- It will
cure any Chronic or Long S' anding Disease whose real
or direct cause is BAD BLOOD. Rheumatism, Pains
in limbs or Bones, Constitution broken down by Mer
curio! or other poisons, are cured by it. For Sypbillia
or Syphilitic Taint there is nothing equal to it. A trial
will prove it. It is a must useful Spring aud Fall Pu
rifier of the Blood.
Its safety and innocence have beeD fully tested, go
that it may be administered to the most tender infant
