OUR KOl'tf.
“What are yon good for?” asked a j
gentleman of a street Arab. |
“Good to make a man” was
the prompt reply. Many a one |
has made the noblest specimen ofj
their race from most unpromising j
beginnings. The laughing, careless 1
boy, up to every conceivable form of
mischief, and devilment, rough as a i
bear, exuberant with ruddy vitality, :
when the proper time arrives becomes j
stimulated with the excelsior emotion 1
and be mounts to the higher ranks I
of intellect where there is ever an
abundance of room. Who would
repress the glad spirit of jolliness
that bubbles over in the very joy of
existence. He rushes pell mell into
every scrape, the ringing laugh awak
ening the echoes, indicts cruelty in
sportive wantonness,plays truant and
finds no melon or fruit so luscious as
that unfairly won, and yet when stir
red by a deeper emotion he cap show
the stuff of which men are made. He
is but advanced age in embryo. To
most of them life appears a bright
land of promise, full of all that is
desirable. If not obtainable now,
it is painted on the glowing clouds of
the distant sky. Even in the hovels
of poverty, where want is a familiar
face, and gaunt hunger a frequent
companion, the undaunted spirit of
vitality overflows in the heart of
youth, and he extracts some com
fort from his misery. The boot-
black and newsboy sliarj>ens his
wits to meet the situation, and though
they may encounter the worst forms
of privation they manage to extract
some fun from the surroundings.
Then, too, the whining school boy,
with his satchel and shining morning
face, creeping like a snail unwilling
ly to school, forms a not disagreeable
picture in the landscape of younger
days.
The boy is an institution. Gener
ally boisterous, he loves outdoor
sports and pastimes. He abounds
in vitality. He is fond of
laughter that wrinkled care de
rides. He tosses off trouble as the
rain drops are thrown from a tree
that has caught them, and shivering
turns them loose. He should be en
couraged to cultivate all those prac
tices which promote physical strength
—rowing, swimming, and hunting.
Let him have the river if he wishes,
and condemn the mock sensitiveness
that uses spy glasses. Why raise a
rumpus because he shouts occasional
ly? His lungs require expansion.
He wears the rose of youth upon him;
from which the world should note
something particular. This life
needs not hot house plants,
curled darlings, but boys, rude
boys if you will with heart, strength
and brains to make the men who
rule the progressive age. The ten
dency of education is to create ro
bustness in the body as well as put
learning in the head, and it is found
the system works well. “All study
and no play makes Jack a dull boy”
the present century recognizes in its
fullest sense, hence the gymnasiums
and athletic clubs are found at every
well regulated institution — such
amusements as make youth younger
and teach age to live.
The school system is an improve
ment on the old. Books have improv
ed, are easier and simpler, and the
boy learns quicker and understands
more readily. The true instructor is
a student of character and disposi
tion. They are the best who best
comprehend the natures under them.
Some require driving, some re tard
ing. Flogging adds wonderfully to
the intellects of some as the painful
tingling of the nerve carries the spark
of memory to the brain, and the
thought of the hurt keeps the recol
lection there. It is a startling incen
tive to industry. Others need kind
ness and gentle aid; punishment to
them only increases timidity and
clogs the reason. How many there
are whose minds have been clouded
by a particular study, and the more
it was pondered the thicker grew the
mist. A lucid, pains-taking expla
nation may uplift the perplexing dif
ficulty, remove the gloom, and all
become bright as a sparkling morn.
How refreshing does the truth appear
after it is comprehended. After all
with the average boy, the rollicking
out-of-doors boy, rioting in this fun-
loving existence, the lesson taught by
Byron is suitable now as ever :
“O ye who teach the ingenuous youth ol na
tions,
Holland, France, England, Germany or
Spain,
I pray ye flog them upon all occasions.
It mends their morals—never mind the
pain.”
But they say the boys are faster
than of yore. True, and they are
better. When were ever Sunday-
schools so numerously attended ?—
when were books and papers so plen
tiful at home?—when was the Bible
learned more intimately?—when a
healthful religion more universely
taught at home, the grand interior
department of general government i
of which the mother is the secretary? j
The boys are oblige'! to be hist to j
keep up with the times. They live
in an age when former chimeras are
the day and common life. He will
be better for it. Latin and Greek,
French and German, will not dete
riorate his powers for selling corn
and potatoes, disposing of cotton or
selling dry goods and gro
ceries. Learning makes one
a better agriculturalist or
merchant or laborer. The man who
works with his brains does that of
toil which the common workman
has no conception, and the higher
the mind is cultivated the greater
market price it brings. Don’t hurry
the boys into business before their
time. Let them be boys as long as
they can, and enjoy youth to its
fruition. Time enough to learn
trouble and vexation. Arm them as
best you can to fight the terrible bat
tles of triai that the world presents.
The impulsive, enthusiastic youth
cannot go very far wrong every time
he yields to his wayward tempera
ment or fancies, and indulges their
bent. There are the influences of
home and the teaching of a mother
to check him. A mother’s love is
most powerful. It increases by giv
ing. Many a boy has felt in thought
the beautiful words Adelaide Proctor
lias made a youth speak of her that
was dead:
“The mere thought
Of her great love for me has brought
Tears in my eyes. Though far away.
It seems as it were yesterday.
And just as when I looked on high
Through the hi ue silence of the sky,
Fresh stars shine out, and more and more,
Where I could see so few before;
So, the more steadily I gaze
Upon those far oflf, misty days,
Fresh words, fresli tunes, fresh memories
start.
Before my eyes and in my heart.”
License is worse than extreme
severity. There’s a happy mean
between the two and to this should
the education be directed. Generosi
ty is commonly a youthful attribute.
After all, what would the world be
without “ourboys.” who sin woefully
ami repent bitterly ? Who would
have them men as boys ? Among
the gladdest sunbeams of the world
would be missing.
.ROST UNJUST, EFKN IN CONTEM
PLATION.
It is said there is an earnest wish
on the part of many members of the
Legislature to extend the Macon and
Brunswick Railroad to Atlanta. If
directly or remote any aid be extend
ed by the State for any such purpose,
it will be as mean and little a trans
action as any worthless individual
ever engaged in. The idea of a State
taxing a corporation to build a rival
thoroughfare, and then pushing it
forward to further divide the busi
ness of a private enterprise is a con
templation which we believe the
Georgia Legislature cannot demean
itself to agree to. Under the State
aid law Georgia taxed the Central
Railroad and Banking Company, a
Georgia organization of Georgians, to
build the Macon and Brunswick Rail
road. It was not required by the
necessities of the country. Pri
vate enterprise had no idea of con
structing it. The Central was inau
gurated and finished by the money of
citizens. It lias leased the Macon
and Western Railroad, and is paying
for it. Now (be idea with some is to
offer State inducements to the lessees
of a Slate aid road to extend that line
as a rival to the one in which indi
vidual funds are invested. Why, the
proposition is shameful. There is no
justice, no semblance of fairness in
it. For the Slate to thus oppose the
interests of citizens is simply dis
graceful. There is not sufficient bus-
in ess between Atlanta and Macon for
two roads, and if the State gives its
countenance to the Macon and
Brunswick extension to Atlanta it
will be an attack on the private capi
tal of her own people. We trust our
State will be guilty of no such fla
grant injustice. Such an action
would he simple robbery.
The State Troubles.— Those
judge meanly of Georgia who think
the Democracy of the State, who are
overwhelmingly in the ascendant,
cannot control her ati’airs successfully.
The Legislature iscomposed mainly of
trusted citizens. Our present Legisla
ture is a body composed of men who
can neither be bullied nor bribed,They
have already shown neither fear nor
favor. The disposition is to spare none
who have been guilty of criminality
or want of sense. Committees mean
to probe from the top to the bottom,
and if there be anything rotten, the
people will know it.
The whitewash brush has been
thrown away and the tar bucket sub
stituted. It is time for those who
have become rich on small saiaries in
a few years to tremble. If there be
wrong doing let it be known, and
Georgia Democracy will show the
whole country how the evil doers of
its own party will be punished. The
people want the truth of the ugly ru
mors that are afloat, and demand the
truth of their representatives, no
matter whom it may hurt. A mis
take which has inured to an officer’s
pecuniary advantage and against
that of the State is as grievous as a
willful fault. Let the exposures

no one license to Fob the State or fill

Preston for a few days; also, to Mr.
Hamilton of the 21st.
Mr. McDaniel, chairman of the
committee on judiciary made a re
port which was read.

, The bill to increase the salaries of
'judges was tabled subject to the call
of Mr. Lester, its author.

To fix fees of ordinaries and sur
veyors from persons applying for
homesteads. The judiciary commit
tee reported in favor of its passage
by substitute. Mr. Bower offered an
amendment to the substitute that the
provisions of the bill do not apply to
ordinaries and surveyors now in
office. Mr. Fain, the author of the
bill, opposed the amendment. The
object of the bill is to lesson the cost
of the homestead, aud it ought to be
lessoned one mouth.
Mr. Bower said the amendment
was merely an act of justice to officers
now incumbent.
Mr. DuBose said the fees of ordi
naries were now small enough.

THE OOLOSHITH LETTER.
We present below the letter ad
dressed by Comptroller General Gold
smith to the wild land committee, to
sign which two members of the
committee were offered money by
Mr. Hinton P. Wright:
To the Chairman and Members of
the Wild Land Committee—Gentle
men : I know that to have you repair
a wrong, unintentionally done mein
your report, it is only necessary that
I should bring to your attention the
fact that such wrong has been com
mitted. In your investigation as
members of the wild land committee,
I have co-operated with you by every
means in my power to bring out all
the facts connected with the transfer
of fi. fas. and the sales of wild lands.
There is no circumstance within
my knowledge that I have not freely
communicated, and as far as my per
sonal acts are concerned I have dis
closed to you, without reservation,
every act of my administration, for I
was more interested than you possi
bly could be, that your investigation
should be full and complete, as I
knew that its results would complete
ly vindicate me from any complicity
in doubtful transactions: and while
your report was intended to have
this effect, the omission of your
chairman to embody certain amend
ments adopted by the committee, and
to which I will hereafter make refer
ence, subjects me to the criticism of
the censorious, and while as a private
person I might be indifferent to their
censure, as a public officer I cannot
afford to leave a “loop whereon my
enemies might hang a doubt.”
I do not propose to discuss the le
gality of the transfers or the recom
mendation which you make to declare
them void, because these recommend
ations are concurred in by a majority
of your committee, and because if
they are valid no legislation can
make them void, and if they are void,
no legislation can make them valid.
The law of 1874 fixes theirstatus, and
what that is the courts, I presume,
will determine in reference to the law
as it then existed; being doubtful
myself as to the transfers, I applied
to the Attorney General, aud acted
on his opinion. If the transfers are
declared void by the courts. I shall
have no sympathy with any ope ex
cept such bona fide purchasers as may
havp been under the opinion of the
Attorney General misled in the in
vestment of they money. Beyond
this, I shall rejoice with tfye commit
tee in the defeating of any frauds
that may have been perpetrated by
any one.
The portion of your report that does
not express what I understand to be
the view’s of a majority, is the omis
sion to state “that it was in evidence
that before the appointment of your
committee I had taken official action
through the Solicitor-General in
Dodge and Montgomery counties to
compel the sheriffs by rule to account
for the entire sales in those counties,
less the legal costs aud amount of
taxes paid to the State by transferees,
and at th,e tiipe of your investigation
it was in evidence that I had directed
rules to be issued against every sheriff
w’ho had failed to make proper re
turns. Jn doing this I exhausted my
power as Comptroller, and if any un
necessary delay has occurred, the
fault, if fault there be, is not in ipy
department. These views I under
stand were concurred in by a majori
ty of your committee, and were to be
embodied in the report.
If these facts were stated I should
have no complaint, but their omis
sion leaves an inference that I had
left undone what I ought to have
done, in order to cpmpel an accoun
tability by the sheriffs.
Another fact in evidence and orpit
ers. “The surplus” not Galled for in
a reasonable time will be e> >vered into
the treasury, as the $3,699 7.’2 reported
to the committee.
I also understand that the commit
tee agreed to report, instead off what
was reported, that, “after thorough
investigation, nothing could be found
to implicate the Comptroller General,
directly or indirectly, in any frand or
speculation Whatever.”
All these facts are borne out by the
evidence and my statement before
the committee, and I understood were
to be covered by the report. They
have been omitted, and as the omis
sion subjects the report to miscon
struction, I ask you respectfully to
indicate, by your concurrence in this
statement, the truth of the facts set
forth.
I make this request because I feel
confident that it will be your pleas
ure to do for me this act of justice.

IMPORTATION OF CATTLE FROM ENG
LAND.
Washington, July 19.—The Treas
ury Department has revoked the or
der prohibiting the importation of
meat cattle from England. The
Secretary has officially determined
such importation will not tend to the
introduction or spread of contagious
or infectious diseases among the cattle
of the United States, provided all
meat cattle from any portion in Eu
rope arriving at any port in the Uni
ted States shall be kept in quarantine
for not less than ninety days under
the direction of custom’s officers, and
at the expense of parties interested,
except when State or municpal laws
provide for quarantine of such cattle,
and in such cases collectors w’ill per
mit proper officers toquarantine them
in such manner as the State or mu
nicipal authorities require. The de
partment will, upon application, con
sider special cases where it may be
claimed, during such quarantine,that
cattle were from an entirely healthy
locality direct to the United States,
and will decide in such cases wheth
er they may be delivered on a period
shorter than ninety days before men
tioned.

YELLOW FEVER.
HeMpbli DaacermMlj Infected.
Washington, July 19.—A tele
gram from Dr. Mitchell, at Memphis,
received at the National Board of
Health last night, declares the city to
be dangerously infected, and a dis
patch received at noon to-day reports
six new cases, and the disease is
spreading.
THREE NEW CASES AT MEMPHIS.
Memphis, July 19.—Three new
cases of yellow fever reported to the
Board of Health this morning—Lou
isa T. and Viola Goodsey, two sisters
residing at 48 Bradford street, and
Tom Keruan, passenger ageut of the
Memphis & Charleston Railroad.
The illness of the Goodsey sisters can
be traced to infection from the Tobin
family. The young ladies were in
attendance on Mrs. Tobin until her
case was pronounced yellow fever.
These cases dispel the sporadic theory.
Hiram Atby, sou of Chief of Police
Athy, is dying, although his case has
not yet been reported to the Board of
Health as yellow fever. The chiefs
residence is in the neighborhood of
Tobin’s dwelling as is also Tom Ker-
nau’s. The report of the death of
Tud Eekers was premature. He is
living, but lies in an extremely criti
cal condition. The weather is warm
and sultry with occasional showers.

THE ACTION OF GALVESTON—STATES
ADOPTING RULES OF NATIONAL
BOARD OF HEALTH.
Washington, July 19.—Upon in
quiry at the rooms of the National
Board of Health this afternoon re
garding the rigid quarantine declared
against New Orleans by Galveston,
it was stated by Secretary Turner
that the request received by tbe
Treasury Department for tbe placing
ol customs offices outside of tbe city
of Galveston had been referred to the
Board, but they contend that they
have no jurisdiction in the matter of
Galveston quarantine in consequence
of the non-acceptance by Texas of
the rules and regulations prescribed
by the Board. The health officers of
Texas, they say, does not approve of
the course being pursued by Galves
ton.
The States which have accepted tbe
rules mentioned are Louisiana, Mis
sissippi, Tennessee and New Jersey.
Ruies have been forwarded to sev
eral States for the purpose of secur
ing, _ when necessary, the speedy
execution of the provision in the act
of June 2d, 1879, requiring tbe
National Board of Health to co-oper
ate with, and so far as it lawfully
may, aid the State and municipal
boards of health in the execution and
enforcement of the rules and requi
sitions of such board to prevent the
introduction of infectious and conta
gious diseases into the United States
from foreign countries and from one
State into another.

patch from Port-au-Prince as late as
tbe 15th inst., informing of the con
dition of political affairs in Haytian
Republic. Quiet had already been

cost of a considerable number of lives
oil botli sides. Fighting in that city
lasted five day’s and was carried on
in the streets and from house to
house. The fire that broke out de
stroyed 70 houses, but the commercial
portion of the city was not injured.
Among the killed were Minister of

BENNETT’S ARCTIC EXPEDITION.
Special to Enquirer-Sun. ]
Paris, July 19.— At a meeting of
SoeieteGeographiquelast night Louis
Simon, an engineer and traveller, in
troduced the subject of the departure
of tiie Arctic exploring steamer
Jeannette, and spoke warmly of the
services rendered by James Gordon
Bennett in the cause of science and
progress. He dwelt on the results of
the Stanley expedition to Africa.
Not content with these he said
Bennett had fitted up at his own
expense and generously placed the
Jeannette at the disposal of the Amer
ican Government to solve another
great geographical problem. If Capt.
DeLong, aud the picked men with
him, fulfilled the anticipations, it
was probable that this expedition
would he attended with some happy
results, as those to which Bennett
had already attached his name and
fortune. It was interesting
and instructive to see the
journalist attempt alone the
enterprise in which the govern
ments had been unable to succeed
and not content with what he had
done in Africa and in other countries
thus courageously undertook, with
his ovyn single resorpes, conquest
of the north pole. The address was
received with warm applause.

Indian Depredation*.
The fair reader shudders when she
thinks of the settler’s wife watching,
from the door of her rude hut, the re
treating form of her liusbaud going
out to his daily labor—going out per
haps to return not again, for before
nightfall a savage hand may have
laid him low among tiie prairie
grasses. Or it may be a child, a
bright-eyed daughter, is snatched
away in an unguarded moment, to
grace the next war dance. When
we read the heart-rending details of
these savage depredations, we are
apt to blame tiie government for not
taking more strict precautions to in
sure the settler’s protection. Rut
we daily read of the depredations of
that arch-fiend, consumption, with
scarcely a thought of tiie terrible in
roads it is making in human life.
Tens of thousands of homes are an-
money received on void fi. fas. issued
by mistake, and if they had not been
called in and canceled sales would
have been had under them involving
innocent parties in expensive litiga
tion. The $10,176 06 is subject to
costs due the Comptroller, and the
suspected. He has been wanderin
over the country ever since, and now
says he is tired of being a fugitive
and wants to be sent back, where the
crime was committed, to stand trial.
