Enterprise.
We do not doubt that the war, and
more particularly it* results, and the re
cent successes of Radicalism at the
North, have, in a (treat measure, kept
down the energy and enterprise of the
people of the South. The unsettled state
of National politics, the uncertainty of
the political fate of the Snath, the sec
tional animosity exhibited in the recent
Northern elections—all tcud to stop the
wheels of progress, to keep beek capital,
and to iniurfem most seriously with the
general prosperity of the whole country,
but more particularly of this section.
Still, our people should not allow these
evils, great a* they may he, to prevent
them from developing their resources,
and building up their respective States
and communities. They should take
courage,and, eecbewing politics as much
as possible, go to work iu every field of
labor aud enterprise. This will give
employment to the needy and industri
ous ; it will invite capital to the State;
and it will encourage an immigration
that will be exceedingly desirable and
beneficial. If the Constitutional Amend,
ment is adopted, thtf white basis of rep
resentation will be established in the
South, and the number of Representa
tives in every Southern State will be
greatly reduced, which would leave this
section in a most hopeless minority in
Congress. A judicious system of enter
prise would, as we have already said,
bring hither a thrifty and industrious
class of white laborers, liberal capital
ists, and energetic business men, who
would so increase our ratio of represen
tation as so restore, to some extent at
least, our equilibrium in the National
Council*.
In a pecuniary, as well as in a politi
cal, point of view, it is important that
our people should awake to the'spirii of
the age and the necessities of their sec
tion. Our farmers should introduce all
the latest improvements in agricultural
implements. Our capitalists qjiould
build up factories and foundries, open
up mines, establish lines of travel; oar
merchants and mechanics should sell
their goods and wares as low as possi
ble, and offer every inducement to cou
snmers to purchase their supplies at
home; foreign immigration should be
invited ; Northern capital should be en
couraged to come here; schools and
colleges should be established; and
railroads should be projected, length
ened, or completed. In short, work!
work l work ! should be the motto and
the rule of action everywhere, and with
all classes. Enterprise aud energy
should take the place of despondency
and carelessness; and all should unite
to restore the South to its former pros
perity and position in the Union.
The Education of Boys,
We briefly reviewed the subject of
education, a few days ago, in a general
way. Its importance is so apparent that
it needs no argument to enforce it. But
there is a difference of opinion in regard
to the proper system to be adopted, and
every advocate of a particular system
very naturally thinks his the best. There
is one point, however, which we fear is
too generally overlooked. Education
should be solid and adapted to the capa
cities and circumstances of the pupil.
If his time is limited, he should not be
crowded with the classics and metaphys
ics. He shoold be tanght such brandies
as will fit him for the vocation which he
is to adopt. If it is intended for him to
he a mechanic, be should be instructed
in spelling, reading, writing, and arith
metic —even to mathematics, if he can
be kept at school long enough. If he is
to be a merchant, he should go through
the same couree. with the exception of
mathematics, for which might be substi
ted the French, German, or Spanish lan.
guages, and the principles of book-keep
ing. If be is to be a professional man,
he should have more time allotted to
him, and be tanght Latin and Greek in
addition to all the studies already named.
In thus laying down a kind of formu
la, we are supposing that the student is
obliged to complete bis studies as soon
as possible, and this being the case, he
should not have a multitude of subjects
crowded upon him, which interfere w tb
his learning those that are absolutely
essential to the trade, business, or pro
fession, which he Uto follow in life. If,
however, be has ample time to complete
his studies, he should he kept at school
and college until he is really qualified
to graduate. The present rule appears
to be to grad date a student after a cer
tain number of years at, college, and a
limited knowledge of some of the higher
branches. Ilenco it is that education in
America is so superficial, and that there
are so many iguoraot people in a laud
where education is so general and so
accessible to all. When we find a really
educated man—a truly scientific man—
we know at once that he lias bad a
natural taste for study, and be perfected
his knowledge by his own industry and
perseverance.
A proper aud uniform general system
being adopted, it should also embrace
moral and patriotic training. A knowl
edge of the Constitution, and a general
view of the laws of the land, should be
imparted to the boys, and a jmtriotic
love of country instilled into their minds.
Thus, Jf their education lie uecessarily
limited to certain branches, they will be
perfect in each; if extended to a
thorough course, it wHI be solid and truly
beneficial; and witbal every one will be
better fitted to perform the duties of en
lightened citizenship, free from tbi:
tricks of wily aud unscrupulous politi
cians, and well qualified for the high
role of statesmanship. Let us, then, look
to the proper education of the boys. Let
us adopt a system that will cepse to he
superficial—one that wii hath *
aoldity about it—oa# that will embrace
morality and patriotism. (Let as do tips
if we want toperpeteate flee institutions,
if we want to place the affair* of the na
tion ia the haads of honest and enlight
ened statesmen, and its honor snd glory
in the ported ion of true patriot*; if wc

Sunday Guards. —Under the head of
“ Wanted,” a Huntsville (Ala.) paper
gets off the annexed excellent hit at
certain yooog gouts, whose enstom it is
to hang around Church doors before
and even after service has commenced,
greatly annoying the preacher and con
gregation by their loquacity:
“ One hundred and seventy-five
yoong men, of all shapes and sizes,
from the tall, graceful dandy, with hair
enough on his upper lip to stuff a bar
ber’s cushion, down,to the little hump
backed, freckle-faced, bow-legged, car
rot-headed upstart. The object is to
form a gaping corps, to be in attend
ance at the Church doors on each Sab
bath, before the commencement of Di
vine service and its close, to stare at
the ladies as they enter and leave the
Church, and to make delicate and gen
tlemanly remarks on their person and
dress. All who wist to enter in the
above corps will appear at the various
Church doors this morning, where they
will be duly inspected, aud their names,
personal appearance, and quantity of
brains, registered in a book for that
purpose. T<s prevent a general rush, it
would be well to state that none will be
enlisted who possess intellectual capaci
ties, above that of a well-bred donkey."

Mr. Editor: J, am not much of a
in th» tnodsrti acceptation
of that tertn, and I Kav* hot the "Tea**
ainbitioajto bq tfof “mio keeper” of
tlio cltTsensTif Augusta, yes as there’ ap

seme effect. ®tpd
to a satisfactory conclusion.
Taking up first the question of a loan
of SIOO,OOO in City Bonds, Now if these
are seven per cent, bonds to run twenty
ryeass, the merit of the question rests
1 upon the ability of the Council to pay
\57,000 per year, for twenty yearly and
(then to pay the $100,000.* In the mean
time, however, the road will be finished,
nud if property managed it will pay tbi*
interest, and the bonds at maturity will,
of course, be provided for so that the
Cduucil will not, in fact, have to pay a
dollar of the liability it will incur, and
the loan of ih credit will, of course, be
all that wiH be done to accomplish a
vtry desirable purpose.
Now let us consider the question of a
subscription of SIOO,OOO to this roaif,
payable in bonds at seven per cent., to
run twenty years. If the fund realized
from the sale ol these Bonds will finish
the road within a year, and at the end ol
that time its earnings begin to. be avail
able, and we have ten thousand shares
of its stock, we will, of course, get otrr
share of those earnings. Npw, if the
road is a “paying road,* 1 as it no doubt
will be, our share ot the earnings will
pay the interest on the bonds ; but sup
pose, for a few yeans, it only pays us four
or five per cent., the corresponding foss
to ns wiH only be two or three thousand
dollars per year; Andhetel may well ask,
who of our business men would not con
tribute their share of that to secure the
advantages of the trade tp.be opened by
this road ? At the end of twenty years,
when the bouds are matured, we will, of
course, have our ten thousand shares of
stock at some value to meet them.
Our experience with our Georgia Rail
road stock should satisfy our public that
such investments can be made with
perfect safety, for they must, or if they
do not, they should know, that the
Georgia Railroad stock has been the
“main brace” ot the City credit for
nihnfy years, and has often saved it from
& financial crash. Chkysal.

says:
“ They would rather have had defeat
and a riot than the victory without a
riot. It leaves the outrageous frauds by
which their victory was attained alto
gether too bold and glaring. They try
now to shield themselves bebiud the sol
itary opinion of one single fifth-rate law
yer against the opinions of such distin
guished jurists as William Pierce, Wm.
Schley, Robt. J. Brent, and Reverdy
Johnson. Their one legal adviser argued
ed that the registry laws was applicable
to the city elections, but he did not fur
nish any excuse tor the appointment of
three Radical judges of election at each
precinct,' nor did he countenance the
various preparations for the intimidation
and exclusion of opposition votes, which
were, until election day, an agreeable
pastime to the Radical Mayor and his
coadjutors. They have, however, been
caught in their own toils. They have
overdone the matter, and they are now
distressed at the result. They know
that the election will be set aside as a
stupendous fraud, and they will not have
the satisfaction of pleading a case of riot
in defence.”

PRESENTMENTS BY THE
GRAND JURY OF RICHMOND COUN
TY.—The Grand Jury of the second week
fl’nd but few matters of interest to recom
mend to the attention of tho Court, save
those especially mentioned by His Honor,
the Judgo, in his eloquent and impressive
oharge. <
W 6 are informod that tbe Jury Box needs
a thorough revision ; that tbe list at present
contains the names of a number of pmsons
(many of whom were regularly drawn at
tbe present term) who aro no longer to be
numbered among our citizens—some being
dead) others baring removed from tbe ooun"
ty. The frequency with which the per
formance of Jury duty has, of late, fallen
upon tbe same individuals, urges us to’this
recommendation. A great change has t*kon
place in' the etatne of the community w|thin
the last few years, and a largo number of
comparatively new residents have taken up
their abode among us. These should, in
justice, be required to .share the duties,
while they enjoy the privileges of citizens,
and we recommend that the requisite in
structions be given tho officers of tho Infe
rior Court, whose duty we believe it is, that
tho names of non-residentw-be dropped Tibia
the Jury Box, and those of new citizens
added to the list to fill their places.
A change in the time of tbe session of
the Suporior Court for this County would,
also, add greatly to tbe convenience of tbe
citizens, and we think, also, to that of tho
Court. Under the present arrangement
both Terms occur during tho business sea
sons of tho year, at a time when the
business of both the planter and the mer
chant must suffer much from his absenco
and the length of the sessions, and the
large amount of business usually transacted
by this Court, justifies us in requesting
that the time appointed for its sessions, be
so arranged ae to give as little inoonve
nienco as possible to our oitizons. Wo
would, therefore, suggest to our Senator
and Representatives to solicit the Legisla
ture to chan go the time to the second Mon
days in January smd Juno.
A late ohange made by the Legislature in
tho law, regarding the payment of Juries
in civil cases, it is found by experience, re
sults in depriving Juries of all payment for
their services and time. This is so mani
festly unjust to that class of our citizens,
particularly who reside at a distance from
tho county seat, and who are at consider
able expenso, as well as inconvenience, dur.
ing the time their sorvices are roquired, that
wo trust a recommendation to onr Senator
and Representative* to bring the matter to
the attention of the Legislature, will result
in a favorable change in (he law. The old
jaw provided, we believe, for the payment
of onedollan-pcriday so each Juryman, to
bo paid out of tbe County: Treasury, ou tbe
certificate of the Clerk of the Court, and
this law seems to us the most satisfactory.
As rogards tho subject 6f Education, on
which so much bus been said in Grand Jnry
presentments, wo would simply urge upon
our county authorities renewed and con
tinned efforts to obtain possession of our
beautiful Academy and ifo belongings, which
are still in possession of the military au
tborities. The stato of our community is
not noW such as totfsqujsff an aTWfcd fqtea
jp our midst to proserve order. Our police
regulations seem tq >0 amply snffiqioot for
that pprpose, while the Arsenal and grounds,
near the city, belonging to the Government,
wo should think amply sufifoiept for their
accommodation and amply convenient for
all putpijbtS n>q»irad. , j „
