True Nobility ot Lite.
The offspring of successful families has not
the right to rank above the men around him ,
solely because his ancestors woro men of
energy and pisition. Corrupt branches that
are raised up by tall trees, to toss themselves
over the nobler trees of creation, honor not
the parent trunks that give them their lofty
pitition. Nothing stands long that stands on
absolute falsehood, The nobility of life lies in
thought and works, It is a noble thing in
any degree of life, when a rhatt knows his
business and does it. lie who does any part
of the world's work, not only helps himself,
but assists those around him. It is not so
much the wßrk one docs, blit the spirit in
Which it is done, that is Creditable or disgrace
ful. One of the most shameful things in the
world is to be ashamed of honest work. It
is more honorable to bo an industrious boot
black than it is to be a lazy gentleman. A
great deal of the misery of the world is caused
by people neglecting the useful field in which
they are fitted to labor, for the sake of crowd
ing into the professions for which they arc not
qualified, and where they aro unproductive.—
No form of democracy is potent enough to as
sociate culture and vulgarity, efficiency nnd
inefficiency, but the sphere where nature de
signed to [dace him, is still ns noble ns tho man
who becomes prominent in the profession* or
exalted with power. Each must bo rated bv
what he does. Each should assert tho worth
of his mat.hood, but both should banish potty
■distinctions.
The most vulgar thing in the world is idle
ness; and tho idle classes are tho lowest
■classes. Honor lies only in industry. The
faithful mechanics nre the adorners of this
beautiful world. The worm spins its oocoon
and dies, but its work bangs in the tapestry
of palaces and waves in the banners of victo
ry. So the mechanics and inventors march
far ahead of pretended aristocracy.
But high above all other things stands no
bility of thought. There is the difference in
men. A lump of ore cannot shine like the
polished gold. The essence of nobleness is
the mind with which wc carry out our work.
The mean man never tries to rise above him
self, but always tries to crush everything else
below him. lie looks out upon the grsat uni
verse through a mousehole. Shrink from that
man who ciacks open every noble deed to find
a crook in it,
In all spheres we find good and great men.
The men who work in the most cramped po
sitions, if they are true to thought, are among
the nobility. Readiness of mind iB essential
to nobility of life. A man must be willing lo
see the truth, and be willing to let it in.—
Freedom of mind has no fastened windows
and no rusty hinges. The world suffers from
great had men nnd little good men. The
greatest and noblest things that mem do nre
done for the world, and not for self. To mnke
men in lovo with goodness is to strike a blow
forever at evil.—Dr. Chapin.
■“Good AdviPe.—Mr. Harris closes his
Walks and Talks" for the year, in the Agri
culturist, with the following valedictory senti
ments : -
“I want it understood that my faith in good
farming and my respect for good farmers grow
stronger and stronger every year, I still be
lieve in summer-fallowing on clay lancTJ and
am satisfied that fall-fallowing is n good thing.
I believe that weeds can be killed, and am
making considerable headway against them.
My corn is the best and my corn-stubble the
cleanest I have ever had—better and cleaner
than the Deacon’s! I think we plough too
much land, and do not plough our land
enough, We must have cleaner land. We
must raise bigger crops, or there is no profit in
farming. We must keep better stock and feed
more liberally. We must make more maoiire,
and what is still more important, we must
make belter manure, and must take care of
what we do make.”
The way John Stuart Mill proposed to tho
young lady who eventually became his wife,
is ‘‘strange but true.”
“I wish I had your head, Mr. Mill,” said
the lady, on an occasion when that gentleman
had sulvcd for her a knotty point.
“And I wish I had your heart,” replied Mr.
Mill.
‘Well,’ said the lady, “since your head and
•my heart agree so well, I am willing that we
should go into partnership.”
Ar.d so it was.
A Mobile grocer has a pet cat which
he has trained to leap upon the scales
when provisions are being weighed, and
distract the attention of the purchaser by
caressing his hands. The cat weighs
eleven pounds. •
A Bluebeard of Jonesborougb, Tenn,
has brought home three brides within a
year, and furnished funerals for two of
them, without arousing the curiosity of
the coroner.
A lady writer in one of the religious
papers thinks women should be appointed
teachers of classes of the larger hoys and
young men, because “the love and rever
ence that big lads feel for a lady teacher
fill up a gap in their lives at a very dan
gerous time, and prevent them falling a
prey to the enticements of bold and for
ward girls, who would make them most
unworthy wives.” No doubt!
They attempted to kill a book agent
in Omaha last week. He was robbed,
thrown into the river, knocked off the
ears, pitched from a high bridge into the
river again, hut in two hours after came
around with a now illustrated edition of
the Bible, and trieu to get the subscrip
tion of the leader of the attacking party.

ATLANTA, GEORGIA.
This Guano has been in extensive use for seven years in Georgia and adjoining
States, Experience demonstrates that 200 pounds per acre increases the crop from
double to three fold the natural yield, thus making one hand equal to two, and one
icri equ I to two acres.
The policy of the Pacific Guano Company is to sell a Fertilizer unsurpassed for
exdellcnce at the lowest price and look to large sales and small profits fu- reasona
ble returns on capital invested—hence this valuable Guano is put into market at
present low prices so consumers.
Planters are requested to put in their orders early to insure prompt delivery.
It is for sale by * BRYANS u POSIY at Conyers.
