But if the Liberals who have abandoned the fortunes of Grant, and have cut loose from Radicalism forever, are pracli- cal and bold, they will act vigorous' ly, trusting the Democratic part}', which can be relied on not to throw itself across the pathway of a bona- i hdc union of the opposition.

University of Georgia. Editors Telegraph and Messenger: Please indulge me in a few com ments on a passage or two from the interesting address of Hon. Jas. A. Nisbet, published in your paper ot the 22d inst. Those who were present at the meeting, at which the address was delivered, will not ask an apoiogy from one—not an Alumnus of the University of Geor gia—for commenting on the address. If others not aware of all that trails pi red on the occasion, demand one, let mv relation to the subject of ed ucation in Georgia, and my inter est in every scheme that can pro mote it, be my apology. From the address in question, I quote a passage: “The trustees of the University have resting on them the gravest responsibilities; the demon of politi- C m * ’ ed by their counsels; the dark wing ot sectatian bigotry should never shed its pestilential blight over their action.

Indeed, . . so great an interest has Grant in di- lbe oh;«peat«l cry, ‘down Vidius, nr iu seeming to divide, the I W' lh denoinmational colleges. Democracy, that, will, the enormous I ‘ hese denominational seminaries are J - doing much good—they a e educa- public plunder at h.s disposal, he colild afford to defray the expenses of putting an ultra-Democratic ticket in the field. We do not believe that any Demo crats of respectability or standing can be found impracticable enough to lie seduced into honestly acting ting young men, who, but tor them, would never be educated; they are elevating the tone and liberalizing the views of the great sects. The female institutions, in a marked de fc gree, are the pride and glory of the South, and are annually turning out toothers of Gracchi. So, instead of Slate of Georgia. Enough can be said in tficir favor lo show that they richly deserve the fostering care of the State. But I forbear, lest I weary editors and readers, though the field is inviting, and the subject capable ot overwhelming proof This however, is not needed; for Mr. Nis bet wisely strikes at the root ot the matter. Let the friends of educa tion in Georgia rise in their might and repeal the obnoxious clause. Then the way is open to an educ i- tonal system in Georgia, that shall make fTcr foremost among the Stales. Then may Franklin College he endowed as a college along with Emory, Mercer aud Oglethorpe, un til they reach the point of highest efficiency, and from the trustees of all these colleges, selected under their own laws—a University Board may be selected with such repre sentatives of the State in it, as good policy may demand, and to this Board as the Regents of the Univer sity system—lire system embracing all the colleges, may be assigned the task of fixing ti e curriculum lor them all. But I find myself in dan ger of going into particulars upon a system that 1 conceived of in detail months ago, and I will cease. E- nough, that the friends of a Univer sity for Georgia are opening their eyes to the real obstructions to their plans and purposes; and if this brief communication may lie considered of any importance as coming from one who partly represents an inter est that has heretofore seemed to antagonize their views, it may per- “The part of the holding of a farmer or land owner which pays best for cultivation,” said the im mortal Charles Dickens,” is the small estate within the ring fence of his skull. Let him begin with the right tillage of his brains, and it shall be well with his grains, roots, herb age and forage, sheep and cattle; they shall thrive, aud be .-ball thrive, i’ractioe widi science,’ is now the adopted motto of the Royal Agricul tural Society.” Death.—Soon death will take this chrystal cup of life and dash it in pieces agaiust the marble of the tomb. A few more nights and then the night of death will put its wing over us, aud the co >1 breezes from the Jordan will make our sleep sweet. A few more mornings, and we will rise from our robes of victo ry and coronation. Into this world we are born, and our first utterance is a cry; into Heayen we are born, and our first utterance will be a song. When the Christian expires, men say, “close the eyes;” hut an gels shout ‘give him a palm!’ men say we must put him in the ground, angels cry, ‘give him a ihront!’ On earth it is, ‘Farewell! farewell! ‘In Heaven it is, ‘Hail, and welcome!’ I take up the full cup of human tears, and a ray from the throne of God strikes it, and I read thereon, ‘Weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning.’ »r >1 fiers answer them from the hills on their return home. On the shores of the Adri iic such a custom prevails.— There liie wives of th<- rish rtnen come down about sunset and sing a melody. After singing the first stanza they listen awhile for the an swering sttain from oft' the water, and continue to sing and I slen tilt the well known vo ces come borne over the tide?, telling that the loved ones are almost home. How sweet to the wearv fishermen, as the .-hadowsgather round them, must be the songs ol the loved ones at home, who sing to cheer them ; and how they strengthen and tighten the Bonds that bind together these hum ble dwellers by the sea! Truly, it is among the Uwly in this world that we find some of the most beau tiful customs. THE ETHICS OF DRESS. Imprimis. The first instinct about a new lasbion is the true one. Don’t wait till your eye has lost its accu racy and your judgment its edge. Subject the thing al once to the gen eral rule, and bow to the decision. 2d. What suits one person does not suit another. Know thyself. 3d. Dress should supplement good [joints and correct bad ones. Thick and thin, long and short, are not all to be subjected lo one Pro crustean style. 4th. Colors should be harmonious —should be massed—should be be coming. Id at, many little points or blotches of color sprinkled over a costume, produce a disagreeably pied and sprinkled effect, as of a monstrous robin’s egg, or a plum pudding. One tint should prevail, relieved by a contrasting tint. No amount of fashionable pres'ige can make an unbecoming color becom ing. ‘Nile green’ will turn some peo ple in oranges, though twenty em presses ordain its adoption, 5th. Lines should be continuous, graceful, and feminine. It is better to look like a-woman (if you happen to be or:e) than anything else—even a fashion-plate! 6th. Ornament mnst be subordi nate. Nature, with all profusion, never forgets this fundamental law. A Western editor speaks of a co temporary who is “sotlirtv that eve ry time he goes up stairs there is a’ rise in real estate.” A man who h is traveled through New Jersey says fie found some land there so poor that you couldn’t iaise a disturbance on it. A thoughtful Connecticut widow has had a mourning ring made of the gold fillings in her deceased hus band’s teeth, thinking it wasteful to let the precious metal be worn out inposl mortem gnashing. Wealth is desirable for what it enables us to do or enjoy; but, it is not desirable at the Cost of honesty and honor and true manhood. It is not desirable when truth ami virtue and religion—when honorable use fulness and happiness here, arid eternal happi .ess hereafter—must be sacrificed for it. The Hinesville Gazette says : Mr. W H. Edwards, Sr., ao obi and respected citizen of Fattuall county, was acciJen- faliy killed last Saturday, 23d, by a fragment from a falling tree. He had beeu seut to visit one of his grandchil dren who was sick, and started alone in his baggy, a faithful dog following him. While attempting to pass under a burn- iug tree near the road, the tree fell, and a fragment struck him, causing, it is supposed, instant death. The family could not account for his long absence ■ and, finally, aroused by the strange ac tions of (be dog, who would come in whining piteously, look iuto their faces, and then rush oot again, several of the boys determined to follow the dog. The dog led them straight to the scene of the accident, where they found the old gentleman in a half sitting posture in his buggy, dead, the horse, broken 1 josq from the buggy, quietly fecdingaai - IRMVf* III US IIIBGH a.
