ffjit y** City Paper LAKWKST (ITY^rfltrrLATlON, AtHU'afA. UA.i SUNDAY NOSNI-VU.. Nev U, ISM Mast Mtki mx— Municipal Term of QSce. Now that tho it in scaA'it, the Oceanian in an opportune one for calling attention to a’ subject of u All flic importance M \his cocun unity. We allude to Utfi lerffi of office of our Muni cipal Authorities. tt»6 dottrlue of rf eo«‘ Ution in office” may be a very good one in theory, bMMpjtbak tUt.it doe* pot work well office*, at leant. Frequent * popular election* tend to demoralise a people, to encourage eArruptuto, and to render officials irresponsible and negligent ot duty. Thiy; nawrtton, we apprehend, needs no to enforce it, for it is apparent to every-ene who has had any experience in political affairs. Frequent elections are also expensive, and alto gether unnecessary,and should, therefore be reduced as much possible. Thus, wo have, in Augusts, every twelve months, to debt 9t Mayor And •Council/ and they, in turn, dent their officers every twelve months. The Mayor, by reason of the uncertainty of the tenure of his office, and the small salary which he receives is necessarily compelled to follow some business pandit, with which his office sometimes in-coqjliet, and which must, consequently, suffer by his aUenttoo'-hobU office duties. Then with the Citjj Council. As, soon as the policy whiduthe^. inaugurated begins to be develope<L they are displaced, ami a new Council -edortnettces a riq*.policy, to the injury, thp benefit, M the City. Wnaf js the•remeciyf An ex tension of UdjUoraS-df iffiee, fihfi; with l the Mayor, an increase of salary. We suggest four yean as the Mayor’s term 91 offiee, and $3,000 per antnt th as Ms salary; and we think, too, tint, the Members should also receive a small salary— say ‘sloo or S2OO per annum. which would be some compensation for the loss of tiraraih itftendlhjr to the pub lic affairs of the City; aiid .for eonrat tendance without sufficient should be fined by Ctnfrtcit. ‘ This would be but an increase of $2,000 or $3,000 per annum expenses,,anil, would euable the Mayor and Council to give their time and attention more freely to the business of the City, it is requir ing too much of gentlemen, to ask them to neglect their own private business affairs for the benefit of the pnbtic; and we can see no good reason,.why a Mem. ber of Council 1 should not be paid for bis public services as well as a Member of Congress, or a Member of a State Legislature. We might elaborate these views still further; but we simply desire to-call the, attention of our people and our Legisla tors to the subject; and to suggest that the present Council, at its next regular meeting, take some action in the prem ises. Okefi.vocau Swamp. —A Bill being before the Legislature to donate this Swamp to the Orphan’s Home, some account of it may not be altogether un interesting. We, therefore, append the following from White’s ‘’Statistics of the State of Georgia Swamp. —Okefinooau, formerly called by the Indians Ec«ua-4 iiA-eun, 1 feoni Ecuntiau, earth, and fiuocau, quivertVig. The first was the most common among the Creeks, from Ooka, a Choctaw word for water, and Ciiiodau, quivering ; 1 a little motion will piake the .mud aqd, •water of the swaipp quiver; hence its name. It is about thirty' riilles long, and 17 broadi ’* Several rivers have their head waters in-this Swstaip. In it are several inlands, ouu, af ■ wkioh -the- Creeks represented To Le opa animig the most blissful spots' in the wyrld that it was inhabited by a peculiar race of Indians, whose women were incom parably beautiful) that this place had been seen by some of their, huujers when in pursuit ot game, who, being lost in inextricaWis 'swamps and bogs, and on the point of perishing, were un expectedly bf p Icojnpauy of beautiful women, whom they called daughters of the sun, who kindly gave them such provisions , they had, chiefly fruit, orangeh.-'kkUfes, fet<v and then enjoined them to fly for safety to their own country, as their husbands were fierce men,' arid cruel , They also stat^.hlptt had a view of their settlements, situated on the elevated hanks df an island or promontory, in that in their efforts tpapproaoh it they were involved in perpetual anand, like imagined they had just gained it, it seemed to fly before them, alternately appearing and disappearing.! They’re ' solved, at length, to leave the delusive pursuit and to return, alpoji,, after a number of incttpresiule difitculties, they effected. When they reported their adveutures to their countrymen, (hWr young warriors were iuflaiiied with a desire to invadU’"tid'd ccrtiqWr so charmiug a country; butall their efforts proved abortive, never being nhlo again to find that enchanting- dpbt,' or even any road to it.— Bertram'* Travel*.

We believe that our cotveepondfnt does the Legislature ittjhatiOa. in ftmrglug. thpm with) parsimony. At any rate, we hope that h* da« i for tbejiulyucl is tott important, end the interests involved too great, to jaetftV any fifit the most fibhntl notion on the part of the General Assembly, The people of the State wflT not complain at any appropriation which may be made for public. education, sud will cheerfully pay the takes assessed to meet such appropriation. Let the Le gislature, therefore, act with liberality) and adopt a System that will do credit to the Stole and’eotnport with iu lugh and deserved character as “the Empire Bute of the State.” If, however, the plan which- we have hcrctbfcsc Suggested should be deemed inexpedient, we commeud to the Legis lature the suggestion of our correapon deut as to an increase of the proposed seiarioß; and repeat our own suggestioni that the Trustees by appointed by the Commissioners instead of elected by-Utie people. 4 i v-jV: ci •.-to.-H --.j,. 1 .11 -11 Reported Specially f»f the Psoas.

Mtt, EbiTon : One ot the most un forfnuate mistakes made by mankind ia this, that Philosophy and Religion are antagonistic, and cannot l*e recon ciled. Physics end- Metaphysics—B ody and Sirnl—havp been to some extent in all agea considered entirely separate and extinct, atid it ‘is not unusual to find vast superstructures raised upon nothing. Take, for instance, the first matbemat cal definition—that of a paint—and you have as clear a definition of nothing us the mind conceive, ydt upon this see what a : magnificent superstructure has beeh raised ! A tiling which lias no length, breadth, or thickness, as far as the evidences of our senses are con cerned, mast be a nonexistent; for though leugth, breadth, and thickness ouly indicate magnitude, yet if a mag nitude is not an object of sensation, we cannot perceive it, and perception is essential to consciousness ; and accord ing to the definition our minds refuse to acknowledge the physical existence of a mathematical point. The metaphysical *xi*tenco of this point, however, is quite another thing ; the aabterfuge, that it is a quantity without dimensions, a location of a thing so »mall as to be imperceptible, resorted to by Geometricians, is sheer humbug, and does not save them from the necessity of failing back on first principles; and any intelligent carpen ter, by the dexterous manipulation of four pieces of colored wood, can de moustrate the existence of one mathb matical point, more clearly and with fewer words; than was ever done by Euclid, his heirs, executore, odminis trators, or assigns. rj „i f j, j , 86 is it -with arithmetic—you begin by learning a boy to count one apple, two apples—lone,marble, two marbles rtiuS you address yptftfttlf to his instruc tive covetousness- and unconsciously perhaps, sow the seed for a rept-ehensi ble development. But when you proceed with ' the apples and the marbles you soon come td a stopping placg, and. yonr conviction slides off into abstractions not verymach to the edification of the boy, for fie never be able to appreciate the: diffiareace between 12re:il and 12 aritlimetical apples or -mnrbles. The ego and non pjo urC not Casfiy' kfterward reconciled. The man and his soul is thus CdHy' biadc antagonistic arid fit j becomes difficult to persuade] him that wluiV.yqu have perhaps,inad vertently tfiougnt him, was a mere ab- - stractioQ, is rttnfly his soul,' and that it mast' grotim his passions bfefore he can be “born ugiviu” mHoe 'Christian. ’ Mustard Seed.

For many of these cases, I have used Davis’ Pain Killer, and consider it an indispensable article in the medicine box. in diarrhoea, it has been’ used and effected cures. For cuts and bruises, it is invaluable.

It is valuable uot only for colds in the winter, but for various summer oomplalnts, and should be in every family. A. D. Miller, Editor of Mceeenger, Glens Falls, N. Y., says : There is no medicine at the present day I value so highly as Perry Davis’ Vegetable Pain Killer. I have nsed it in my family for years; in every instance it has proved a sovereign remedy.
