Tie night, dark night, thn twinkling sun, Lika gem*, now gleam in night's dark crown; No cloud comas o'er her (sec and mar*, No tempest make* her brow to frown: Theo, night, I’ve aeon In yean now flown, I’ve peered and mnaed when yaulh was bright; But raid the thought* now gone Came there tha ones which come to-night. Alone, alone. I broach life's sea— 1 launch my bark upon the main ; But when the storms—alas! poor ms, Win e'er I reach the haven again ? No beacon lures with friendly beam, I'm wandering In conflicting doubt. But from the changing forms which serin, I'll have to make my pathway out. Campus, August 5, 1873. O. F. 0. The Silent City. There la a fair, .'air cl :y. Under lha moon to-night, TFhsre every tower and portal la pearly, pearly white; Bale flowers are softly kissing Each pillow's marble foot. And grasses lift the dew drops Like fairy, gem-like fruit. Sweetly on dome and turret Is shed the luitrous glow. With purest radiance flooding The silent nooks below; And tracery rich and faultless. Woven of light and shade, Qleameth In moveless beauty Along aaeh dim arcade. The world la. full of voices Its rushing will not stay, But at this charmed enclosure The echoes melt sway. There la no aouud of music, No footsteps peaceful fall— '■ ’ i They of tbs moonlit city Are aloapws, sleepers all,. . , When summer night* arc ftiaeit ' My spirit sndta and wakes To walk tha silent city, Beloved, for your sakes. I kneel, with lean and blessing, Where those low tablet* stand. And give once more my darlings To their Redeemer's hand. Commamcalions. THE SCHOOL QUESTION. INTEREST AS BA8ED ON ECONOMICS. Editor Northeast Georgian:—Since writing my last, work has engrossed my attention. This will explain the temporary interruption of this discus- >; ii. The considerations urged in fo- Voi of education by the State, in the last paper, were so strong ns to leave us no election. The only alternatives which they presented were public edu cation, or the overthrow of popular in stitutions. The considerations to be presented in this paper are not, to my mind, so strong. They appeal, not to the instinct of self-preservation, but to the desire for power, position, influ' ence. they the advocates of public themselves, they might not bo suffi cient to justify the public school policy. They are rather in the nature of culs minative argument. Thus they ap pear to me. To others they may seem to have more force than the considera tions urged in the last paper. How ever they may be ranked relatively, they have their place in this discussion, and cannot be omitted. I propose in this paper to consider the influence of education upon the productiveness of labor. Lord Bacon’s celebrated apho rism, "Knowledge is power,” has been quoted hundreds of times. Ho might have said with no less truth, money is power. The auswer to the oft repeat ed question, hovy shall we regain our former position of power and influence in the union of these States? is partly found in the declaration above made.

Linton Step] Dr. James S. Lawton, of Forsyth, will remove at once to Atlanta, for the purpose of assuming editorial con trol of tho Grange. : - * - The Atlanta Herald records the dis covery, on the line of Fulton and De- Kalb counties, of gold deposits, which will yield from 880 to $100 per ton. Mr. John G. Eckroon, of Macon, claims to own the first locomotive ever run in America. It is a working mod el, and weighs less than eight pounds. The Atlanta Herald says there is a proposition on foot to have a grand central camp meeting for the Metho dists of the State, and Stone Moun tain is talked of as the proper location of it. The geological exploring parties have visited over fifty counties in this State, and have more than five thous and specimens, which arc forwarded to the Geological Department at At lanta. Miss Louise W. King, of Augusta, Ga., who tuts devoted a great deal of her time in preventing cruelty to ani mals, and building up a society for this purpose, has been presented with a diploma by the Royal Association of Great Britain. The stockholders of the Augusta Factory have decided to issue bonds to the amount of $300,000, as a com mercial capitol for that institution. This is one of the soundest and most prosperous manufactories in the South, its stock lieing quoted at 150. No GitanO 1 Bills.—A couple of our leading farmers discussing the dry itherand gloomy crop prospects last Tuesday, one of them remarked that he would have no guano bills to pay this year. He added also, that thus far, he has paid cash for all form supplies purchased. Such men will live in spite of short crops.— Fin- dieaior. From a letter to Col. R. W. Jones, from Gen. A. H. Colquit, we learn that a deputation of Englishmen, reps resenting the Mississippi Valley Trade Association, will visit Dalton next week for the purpose of being present at the meeting of the Agricultural Convention, which convenes here on Tuesday. Rooms have been secured for them at the uew hotel.—North Georgia Citizen. Col. Frobell, withacorpseof Survey ors, was at Covington week before last. He has just commenced the survey of the Yellow River from that point to Maoon. He is still hopeful of the completion of the Atlantic A Western canal. He says there is nothing in the way of the building of the great enter prise, but the money. After full ins vestigation and actual survey »? most of the route, he is convinced that his first impressions were correct. There were shipped from the saws mill of Messrs. Phillips A Rainey, in this place, to Atlanta, last week, 12 car loads of lumber. The arrivals of pleasure and health seekers in onr city are almost innumer able. They come on every train. So modi for the editors’ excursion. There are four flourishing brick yards almost within throwing distance of each other, atad all inside the corpo rate limits of Toccoa.—North Georgia Herald. Miscellaneous Selections. THE COUNTRY PRESS, a Is it not about time that the “coun- try press*—so-called' in a rather lofty tone of superiority by too many city jou rnahe—should have accorded to it at least a tithe of the justice to which it is, as a matter of right, entitled ?

And one of all the States h,- beetTimprovod in every way by local pajiers. It is not an exaggeration, but the plain unvar nished truth, to say that the country press so-called, has, since 1865, per formed more and better work than the newspapers of the large cities have done in a generation. With everything against them, coldness at home, lack of sympathy abroad, the country edi tors and printers—and the majority of country editors ore printers—have toiled zealously, conscientiously, hero ically, and against great odds, achieved success. In instances innumerable, this unfairly conUmned country press has caused the wilderness to blossom like a rose, by infusing a spirit of true enterprise among readers that the city journals could not reach, and if they did reach them, could do no good; for the publishers and editors of the city journals, in the nature of things, knew less than nothing of the needs and ca pacity i of districts they had never seen, perhaps never heard of. While developing the too long bu ried resources of their immediate fields of usefulness, the country papers have itpproyed themselves. Without fo up your mind that she ry a very small man with none.

There has also been erected a type foundry, which is in active opera tion. ‘ ' Many printing presses have been imported, and more are needed, and will no doubt soon bo seut for. A number of Americans and Europeans are in Japan busily engaged in pre paring for the press dictionaries, vocab ularies, phrase books, and grammars, in the English, French, German, and Italian languages. Learned Niphon- ese are translating, with a view to im mediate publication, works on medi cine, law, political economy, astrono my, and other subjects.

Escape of the Ex-Treasurer of South Carolina.—Niles G. Parker, late State Treasurer of South Carolina, who was rerxmtly convicted of embez zlement. efected his escape from the Colombia jail on the 4th inst., and had not, at last accounts, been heard from. From an examination of foe jail it was evident that Parker escaped by the lightning rod-located near his cell, and at the foot of which a five inch Smith A Wesson revolver, was found. A white' handkerchief was found hanging to tha rod, which had no doubt served as a signal to outside accomplices. Parker is a prominent leader of the carpet-bag banditti, by whom the State of South Carolina has been robbed of millions of dollars and overwhelmed with debt There are others in high position in the Congo State govern ment who are believed to be as guilty as Parker, who connived at his villainy and shared his spoils. As he has threatened that if he went to the peni tentiary others should go with niro, and as he is ne doubt in possession of Produce everything that can be profit- evidence' to convict bis confederates, ably produced at borne; import as lit- there is good reason to believe that he About A*> v£tiTiatN<»o-*-Tfae iYe«a York Tribune has. the following:about the value of advertising, and every practical businessman who has goods to sell, will confirm what it says of the present dull state of business: Prudence and economy, of course, are the two great lessons to be learqed; but there is one part of these lessons which, in dull times, is very liable to bo forgotten. Be sore of J tmethingi Whenever you have goods toaeU. there areipany people ready tp buy, eyre in the. most depressed seasons. Find them Obt, ihoW thetd yonr wares, per suade fKetnto btty of yo&fcrthef thati another. When buyers are reluctant, sellers must be active. It is neither cheap nor sensible to sit. still behind your counter and wait for the bustle of trade to revive. When business is dull* that fs-ithe very 1 time when you roost need to advertise; and, in tho second place, that is when people de*; vote niost time to reading newspapers, and when your advertisement conse quently, is generally most seen.’ A few dollars thus invested, will dp more to revive a sluggish business than eve rything else in the wAfM.
