Editors Telegraph :-I should have’ written
you earHer,buthavinglearned my talented friend
"Invalid,' would give an account of the grand
lj.ill on Tuesday night last, I preferred waiting
n few days for subsequent events.
Tho ssason, just now, is at its height of en
joyment, being rendered quite gay by large ad
ditional arrivals on every coach, which has in
creased the number of visitors to more than two
hundred.
I do not hesitato to state that I am a woman’s
man and shall write a woman’s letter. I have
often thought what sweet sentiments of love
>are embodied in this beantifnl name. Thero is
an indescribable feeling excited in man’s heart
at tho vory mention of woman ; yet the strict
“Anglo Saxon” otymology may be rendered tco-
h-man. If affliction was brought upon man by
woman's transgression, she certainly has re
warded him aince with heaven's own love. In
tho “Garden of Paradise,” the full power and
energy of her being was first felt, as she
appeared on tho opposite side of a beantifnl
lake (of which Milton has given an incompara
ble description,)
“A shape within tho watering gleam appears,
Bending to look on her;
It startod back—she started back,
But pleased, it soon returned.
Next to Hoavon, woman claims our first
allegiance—she is the counterpart of man—the
object of his ambition and love. In her physi
cal organism and intellectual combination, we
realize all tho enjoyments for which God crentcd
us. Woman is man’s equal—sho thinks—sho
loves and sympathizes with him in tho sweetest
and saddest hours of lifo’s pilgrimago. Wo call
her beautiful, and should never spenk of her
otherwise. God mado her beantifnl, and man
with rnusclo and strength. Tho blonde and
_ brunette have reference to physical qualities—
tho intellectuil and moral to spiritual ideas.
The first may. fade away; but tho last, with tho
impress of divine creation, remains immortal.
Now, with a hundred of iheso, imagine what
a little Ilcavcn wo have nt Chalybeate Springs—
ssky of beauty, in which each star shines re
splendent—each body, a littlo world within it
self, as each woman is a paradise to man. Her
presence has mado Chalybeate perfectly beauti
ful. Tho mountains look down from their bluo
snmmits on her dazzling splendor; whilo the
stars ®Ow dim in brightness before tbo light of
woman’s oyes.
In woman's oyes, wo soo tlio’skics.
In a proviotis letter, I omitted to mention,
that tho cabins wore named in honor of our
Sonthom Generals, cities and town. The “Ala
bama Houso” is noted for its bright constella
tion—soven beantifnl stars each resplendent in
her own orbit, which makes ns wish :
Forever Young I would like to be,
To gazo until cijternity..
My friend, James 0. of Colnmlms, I must rc-
^ ally commend for his rejuvenescence. “Pcr-
e mippna Kediviuns," of England, a distinguished
teacher, formorly lived to bo 120 years of age,
by associations with young girls. I trust my
gallant friend may ntlain that extromo longevity.
I havo a groat delicacy in speaking of old bache
lors and I nover do it, only with the greatest re
spect. But, really I do think they should be
placed on tho sick list nt Chalyboato Springs.—
They seem to bo losing their vitality, nnd as Dr.
Pierco recently remarked, they shonld not bo
regarded ns members of society nntil they be*
come married men. Wo must admit it does
look a littlo cowardly td shrink from the matri
monial complications of life. But then.
bless those littlo widows, with their shiny foot
as they move in tho “quadrille” or gallop
in “the Cuban.” Beally they know oxactly how
toharncss n fellow. “Invalid’s” silver-slippered
one is n trump. But, in my opinion, the majes
ty of form, united with charming manners,
shonld bo daimod by one of Macon's lovely wo
men. Her littlo daughter, just rounding into
womanhood, with oyes in which love sits en
throned, is tho most bewitching creature that
ever chased man's sorrow away. I feel “that I
could livo always and would nsk not to die,” in
— sight of tliis littlo beauty.
w Macon has a noble delegation of girls nt Cha
lybeate ; so has Montgomery, upon whom it is
sweet to look. Tho Misses W. are charming
ladies, but I’ll be tears for fear I mention names.
Enfanla has many pretty girls hero, who,
with their dark or hazel eyes, shed a flood of
light and beauty around them. Among this
number is a little brunette—youthful— Young—
tho perfect embodiment of modesty nnd loveli
ness, with a smilo playing on her happy face
which would seem to say, “I have something
sweet to tell you."
Wo all miss our friend Joel W., of Macon,
from tho Chalybeate. Ho left many friends
here, and one sweet littlo friend who is as beau
tiful os sho is silent.
Tho Misses B., Misses D. and T., Miss Mary
L, Mrs. 0. and B., from Columbus, are among
tho galaxy of beauty nt the Chalybeate.
I have met the Hon. Eli Shorter, Col. 11. J.
Moses, and several other distinguished gentle-
.•uen, at this place, including Cob P. W. Al
exander.
When earth fades away, the light of its skies
grows dim and its grand’ panoply of'beauty re
cedes before the darkness of night, then, and
not till then, shall the sweet memories of Chaly
beate be forgotten. “T7ro” les Belles de CKa-

From Taylor County,
Reynolds, Ga., August 2G, 1SG9.
Editors Telegraph: About tho middle of
July wo had a drought that told a sad tale. The
rust commenced on the cotton at that time and
has caused it to open pretty fast, many bolls
opening that were not matured; caused by the
rust nnd drought, therefore the lint is inferior.
Most of the farmers will agreo with me that
one-half of the crop has been cut off. There
has been three bales of cotton shippod from
this part of tho county, and a great deal open
in the fields and in tho gin-houses that will soon
be in tho market. We had a right good rain in
and around Reynolds, which will help backward
JL cotton a little, but it came too late to do much
good. Even our shade trees are dying to a fear
ful extent.
We would like to have the name of tint young
man that sent the first bale of cotton from this
county. I do not suppose he would object to
it, as it would be an honor rather than a dis
credit. More anon. Flint RrvEK.
Texas Correspondence.
Richmond, Texas, August 33, 18C9
The great enemy of the cotton planter on this
porbon of the Brazos, is here in good earnest
A few more days, and fields will be entirely
deaned out. Already a good many look as if
they had been singed over by fire.
The worm is ten days earlier in his visit than
he was last year. If half a crop is realized, it
will be as much as can be hoped for. Half a
crop here means half a bale to the acre. Some
acres will make more than this, but others will
all below it. In consequence of the better cul
tivation bestowed on it this year, the crop will
average as much to tho acre as it did last, al
though the worm has appeared earlier than he
did then.
Unless some means can be adopted to curtail
the devastation of the worm in this section, it
does really seem as if cotton would have to be
abandoned as a crop. Those who have been en-
gaged in its cultivation here, for the last four
years, that have met their current expenses, are
few and fortunate.
I rom tho statements of correspondents in the
Telbobaph, Georgia ia at least a decade ahead
of her surrounding sistere, in agricultural eci-
cneo, if she is not a full quarteTTjf r 'a cerittTfy.’*'
As things are moving, in less than six years
the lands in her cotton belt will be worth from
fifty to a hundred dollars an acre, although they
now sell for but little over a tithe of this sum.
David Dixon, and a few others indued with a
similar spirit of progress, have done a great deal
more for tho State in their quiet, unostenta
tious way, than tho most prominent of her poli
ticians.
There is no reason why Columbus, with the
Chattahoochee’s unsurpassed facilities for manu
facturing purposes, running at her feet, should
not bo a second Lowell in a very few years,
while there is every indication that sho will be.
Bnt tho idea of establishing manufactures at
every shoal and cross road in tho State, does
seem a little impracticable not to say Utopian.
Some efforts have been mado to establish
manufactures in Texas, bnt I am not inclined
to think that these efforts have been covered
with marked success.
Tho experiment at New Brunfels, by a colony
of those proverbiaUy thrifty people, Germans,
was progressing satisfactorily, when the works
wore much damaged by the late flood.
It is said they are soon to be rebuilt on a
grander scale than ever. Bnt the time for es
tablishing manufactures in Texas is not yet—
At present sho offers too many other fields for
profitable investment and quick returns, for
capitalists to be anxious to invest in manu
factures, whoso profits must be counted somo
days hence.
A gentleman who has just returned from a
trip seventy-fivo miles above Waco, reports crops
of ovory description to bo of tho best kind.—
He represents that portion of tho State as being
rapidly filling up with tho best sort of emi
grants, and the health of tho country through
which he passed, all that conld be desired.—
Crimo, ho says, is greatly, on tho decrease
nnd good order prevails universally.
Tho weekly resnme of European affairs alono
is worth double tho prico of the TELEOjurn.
Beef, by moans of refrigeration, killed at
Indianola, has been delivered in the market of
New Orleans sweet and freah. It is said to be
superior to tho beef daily offered in tho market,
because this is usually in a declining condition
when killed.
If it can bo delivered in Now Orleans in good
condition, so it can in New York nnd Boston,
and, in fact, in all tho principal cities of tho
Union. Thoro is a good time ahead for beef
eaters, nnd somo stock men in Texas will havo
princely incomes. If the latter can command
from twelve to fifteen dollars for lteeves weigh
ing six hundred pounds' net, delivered at tho
shipping point, they will feel wonderfully inde
pendent- This will leavo n handsome margin
for profit for thoso through whose hands it must
pass before reacliinpffffe'teefh eVtlie ermsnmer,
ami still allow this personngo to buy it at greatly
reduced figures. If tho now process for deliv
ering beef in the market shonld prove n success,
it will be tho greatest boon to Texas that possi
bly could happen. It will no longer be a ques
tion with stock men, “Whnt shall wo do with
our beevo8 T" There will be plenty of hungry
mouths ready to pay for them. Fab Fois.
European Beer Consumers.—A Munich Pro
fessor has collected some curious statistics con
cerning the amount of beer annually consumed
in Europe. The total quantity manufactured he
estimates at the prodigious figure of five thou
sand millions of litres (English quarts,) more
than enough, as he, perhaps, asserts, to float
tho whole Prussian navy. The average number
of litres consumed per inhabitant, in IS68, was
in Bavaria, 134; England. 113; Belgium, 80:
J Austria, 22; France, 20; Prussia, 19; Spain, 2;
Russia and Italy, 1. Referring to the large
quantity drank in his native country, the author
candidiy owns that he is personally responsible
for six litres a day, or 2,190 litres per annum.
Wonderful Phenomenon.
THE ROCKY MOUNTAINS IN A SECOND TWILIGHT OT
CHROMATIC SHADES — 8UTERSTTTIONS OP THE
MOUNTAINEERS.
Cheyene Correspondence of the Omaha Herald.]
Your paper having recently taken qaito nn in
terest in nil that pertains to the growth of tho
agricultural and mineral resonrees of Wyoming,
will not, I presume, rofuso a little spneo to the
feeble description of n metoorogical phenome
non that is now transpiring each evening in the
skies above the Rocky Mountains in that roman
tic territory.
Since the recent solar eclipse, they have, upon
the summit of tho Rocky Mountain chain, whnt
tho inhabitants call a “second twilight,” so bril
liant with colors of mist, shado and fire-lights as
to pain tho oyo in its steady gaze upon them,
and to lea ve an impression on tho mind that will
never be obliterated.
Just as the sun is about to set, a heavy mist
gathers on tho mountain, nnd growing dense and
denser, it shuts out entirely the last expiring
rays of that luminous body; then all is darknoss
or’nearly so, for almost 30 minutes; when, all
at once, tho heavens become lit up from the
horizon all around, far up to a small circlo in
the centre, with a livid glare of the most daz
zling chromatic colors, seeming as though a
tremendous bonfire was ablaze below, throwing
its glare in clear and steady flame nbovo. This
gorgeous and fearfully beautiful scene lasts for
nearly an hour, then steals quietly away; and
tho moon therefore dimmed by its fiery lustre
regains its ascendency and lights up the balance
of tho night in pale shadows as it is wont to do
in every other clime.
Now, what causes theso chromatic twilights ?
They were never before witnessed by any of
the oldest mountaineers. I was in that section
at this season last year, and I have never seen
so grand ari3 so thrilling twilights, and these
have only occurred since tho great solar eclipse
of the 7ih inst. What, does it mean ? What
does it portend ? How does it originate ?
Old Sarshay—the learned Ute chief—stands
in silence each night gazing at this wonderful
phenomenon, and when asked wlyit he thinks
about it, replies, slowly and sadly; “Ugh! the
Great Spirit is mad! He blows fire! His
wigwam is in trouble! White man and red man
better feel afraid, for tho Great Spirit is mad—
ho is heap angry 1”
If it be true, as one of the professors of the
Cincinnati observatory says, that immense vol
umes of hydrogen gas were thrown out from
the center of the sun to the surface, during the
recent solar eclipse, how long will it be before
the oxygen will be thrown out, and the carbon
become the ruling and destroying element ?
I give these particulars by request, and there
are numbers of people in this city who, on last
Sabbath and Monday nights, witnessed with me
this wonderful phenomenon on the summit of
the Rocky Mountain chain, S,2G2 feet above the
level of the sea. The Cheyenne and Larann '
papers will indorse this description.
The Peruvian Guano Deposits. A Lima cor
respondent of the New York Herald says:Ine
guano of the Guanape Islands, which the Peru
vian Government is now sending to market, is
found to be so strongly impregnated with am
monia, as the cut proceeds downward, as to ren
der it nearly equal to the usual run of the Chin*
cha gnano. The extent of the deposits is esti
mated at four millions ton. Along the Southern
coast the deposits are also very great and of su
perior quality; but lying along the main land,
the cost of shipping would be increased; hence,
it has been determined to exhaust the islands
first. The government has issued a decree, al
lowing only such quantities of Chincha Island
guano to be exported as may be necessary to cov
er the interest of the debts contracted by Peru
in England and the United States; all other car
goes to other ports to be of the Guanape gnano.
Pern, instead of mourning over the loss of her
Chinchas, is now jubilant at the unexpected
richness of Guanape; and the President is more
confident than ever of being able to carry his
multifarious railway scheme into execution.
The Schools of Prussia.
The best schools in Europe are found in
Bavaria, in Saxony and in Prussia, and the best
in these countries are found in Munich, in
Dresden and in Berlin. In these cities the
schools are conducted with primary reference
to mental development, and, as a means to this
end, the subjects of study are so classified and
taught as to lead to the acquisition of knowledge
in a scientific manner. I notice, as I go about
to the different school-rooms of a large educa
tional institution, that they are all well supplied
with the means of illustrating every topic that
is tanght. In one school-room in which botany
is studied, I saw the plants for analysis, all
growing in pots, which were arranged on shelves
about the room. In another room, where
zoology is taught, the students were supplied
with specimens of the objects they are required
to study, and these specimens are so arranged
that they are always before the student as he
studies, or near him to be used as illustrations
as he recites. The teachers do not require rules
to bo committed to memory at first, and then
all mental operations to be performed in a
blind obedience to the rule, bnt they require
the rule, or general principle, to be derived
from an observation which the pupil is led to
make for himself.
In the study of language the pupil is led to
the principles of construction by a study of con
structions he has himself been led by his teach
er to make, and language is in no case to be
used by the pupil until jte possesses *!'■- id—I
and thoughts which tho language expresses.—
Tho teacher of geometry first teaches by object
lessons the principles upon which geometrical
reasoning depends.. Then the pupil is led to
the solution of problems by means of his own
reasoning, in which he himself makes an ap
plication of the principles he himself lias
learned. The pnpil is trained to observe by
observing, to reason by reasoning, and to do by
doing. In the principal German schools I have
visited, the teachers have for the primary ob
ject of their thought, as they teach, the wants
of the human mind. Tho German mind in natu
rally metaphysical. There is, accordingly, in
all plans of German education, a thorough class
ification of subjects of study. The schools are
graded and the different grades are related to
one another in accordance with tho plans of
stndy. In Bavaria, Saxony and Prussia there
are schools called Volks schools or people’s
schools in which the common branches of learn
ing are taught, and which all the German youths
are required by law to attend, from tho ago of
seven to ten years in some States, and from
six to thirteen years in others.
The law is popular with all classes, and is
rigidly enforced. The common people, as well as
the upper classes all give a cordial support
to the common schools. At 8 o’clock in the
morning tho streets of the city are filled with
pupils of the primary schools and students of
the higher grades, each with his satchel of books
tied to his back, marching cheerfully to his ap
pointed place for study. After 8 o’clock no
children of school age are to be fonnd away from
their classes. Each parish of a town mnst have
at least one primary or elementary school, and
most towns in addition to these elementary
schools, havo at least one upper bnrgher school,
as it is called.
The German children at school all appear
neatly dressed, and, what I am sorry to say, is
not always truo in my own country, these chil
dren are trained to good manners. When a
stranger enters a school-room the children all
rise and remain standing nntil tho stranger is
seated, or nntil they are invited to be seated,
and when the visitor leaves the children all rise
and remain standing nntil he has closed tho door
behind him. This practice is observed in all
tho grades of schools, from tho first primary np
to tna senior daw ia ttwwoiflaiKf.
If a parent is not able to clothe his child prop
erly for school, then ho is clothed at the public
expense. The children of the rich are fonnd
sitting on the same seat with those of the poor,
and the noble do not hesitate to allow their chil
dren to receive their elementary training in the
samo classes in which the children of tho hum
ble are trained, nnd tho boy who has tho most
brains, nnd explains his lessoa best, is the best
fellow while his young school days last, whatev
er di3tinotious-maysbe made in after lifo. After
leaving the common schools the German youth
can enter upon the duties of active life, or they
may enter the trade school, where they remain
three years, and prepare for tho various trades
they may choose to follow. Then he can follow
his trade, or he can enter the indnstrial school,
and in two year* gradual* aa anUlNl* aa
neer, a chemist, etc., or, if he wishes, be can
pass from the indnstrial school to the polytech
nic, school, and prepare to take a high position
in the mechanic arts. Tho stndent may leave
the common school also and enter tho gymna
sium, where Latin, Greek, Mathematics, Rheto
ric, History nnd Chemistry nro tanght. From
tho gymnasinm the student can take up tho stndy
of a profession, or ho can go thence to the uni
versity, where ho can fit himself to take the
highest position in the profession he chooses,
and where he can know all tho subjects of his
stndy ns sciences.
In the gymnasia the students are reqnired to
study and recite thirty-two hours per week, and
before graduating to pass over a course of study
which requires nine years to complete. The
German teachers, os a class are better prepared
for their work than tho teachers of any other
country. They are encouraged to fit themselves
for a Ugh excellence in their profession by the
preference which is always given to teachers
who have a professional training, and by tho
honor which is everywhere accorded to teach
ing as a profession. In Germany the boys are
always educated apart from tho girls, and a
male teacher is always placed over a class of
boys, and usually a female teacher over a class
of girls. In the graded schools of the cities the
teacher continues over the same class from tho
time it enters the school until its graduation.—
The plan requires every teacher to be qualified
to teach all the topics fonnd in the whole course
of stndy. Teachers of one State are encouraged
by the Government to visit the schools of other
States, so that any improvement made in the
schools in one section may be rapidly intro
duced into tho other sections. Teachers are
also encouraged to hold conventions for mntual
improvement.—Dresden Correspondence of the
Springfield Republiean.

What Sleep Will Care,
Tho cry for rest has always been loader than
the cry for food. Not that it is more important,
bnt it is often harder to get. The best rest
comes from sound sleep. Of two men or women
otherwise equal, the one who sleeps the best
will be tho most moral, healthy, and efficient.
Sleep will do much to cure irritability of tem
per, peevishness, uneasiness. It will cure in
sanity. It will restore to vigor an over-worked
brain. It will build np and make strong a
weary body. It will do much to cure dyspepsia,
particularly that variety known as nervous dys
pepsia. It will relieve the languor and pros
tration felt by consumptives. It will cure
hypochondria. It will cure the blues. It will
cure the headache. It will cure the heartache.
It wUl cure neuralgia. It will cure a broken
spirit. It will cure sorrow. Indeed, we might
make a long list of nervous maladies that sleep
will cure.
The cure of sleeplessness, however, is not so
easy, particularly in those who carry grave re
sponsibilities. The habit of sleeping well is one
which, if broken np for any length of time, is
not easily regained. Often a severe illness,
treated by powerful drugs, so deranges the ner
vous system that sleep is never sweet after it.
Or, perhaps, long continued watchfulness pro
duces the same effect; or hard stndy, or too lit
tle exercise of the muscular system, or tea and
whisky drinking, and tobacco using. To break
np the habit are required :
1. A clean good bed.
2. Sufficient exercise to produce weariness,
and pleasant occupation.
3. Good air, and not too warm a room.
4. Freedom from too much care.
5. A clean stomach.
C> A clear conscience.
7 Avoidance of stimulants and narcotics.
For those who are overworked, haggard, ner
vous, who pass sleepless nights, we commend
the adoption of such habits as shall secure sleep
otherwise life will be short, and what there is of
it sadly imperfect.—Herald oj Heal i.
In a party of ladies, on its being reported that
a C-apL Silk had arrived in town, they exclaimed,
with one exception, “What a name for a sol
dier !” “The fittest name in the world for a cap
tain,” rejoined the witty one, “for silk can
never be worsted.”

Recommended by the Medical Faculty and

much valuable information:
!>r. R. W. Carr, of Baltimore,says—I
tako pleasure in recommending your Kosa-
d.ilis ns a very powerful alterative. I have
seen it used in two cases with happy results;
one in a caso^of secondary syphilis, in
which the patient pronounced himself
cured after having taken fivo bottles of
your modicine. Tho other is a case of
scrofula of long standing, which is rapidly
improving under its use, and the indica
tion*' are that the patient will soon recover.
I have carefully examined the formula
by which your Kosadalis is made, and find
it an excellent compound of alterative in
gredients.
Dr. Sparks, of Nicholasville, Ky.. says he
has used Kosadalis in cases of Scrofula and
Secondary Syphilis with satisfactory re
sults—as a cleaner of tho Blood I know no
better remedy.
Samuel G. MoFadden, of Murfreesboro,
Tenn., says:
I have used seven bottles of Rosudalis,
and am entirely cured of Rheumatism;
send mo four bottlos, ns I wish it for m
brother, wlu« ha* Scrofulous Sore Eyes.
Beniamin Bechtol, of Lima, Ohio, writes:
I have suffered for twenty years with an
inveterate eruption over my whole body; a
short time since I purchased a bottle of
Kosadalis and it effected a porfcct cure.
