Gov. Smiths Administration:
Never since Lee’s surrender has
there been such profound peace and
security, says the Atlanta Herald,
as exists to-day among the popula
tion of Georgia. This is to be at
tributed in a great measure to the
law abiding character of our people,
but more especially to the wise and
firm rule of Gov. Smith's adminis
tration. Wheu Gov. Smith was
nominated, although he had gained
a high and solid reputation as one
of the ablest lawyers in the State,
yet he was comparatively unknown
as a politician. Elected to the house
of Representatives, he at once took
a position which caused his almost
unanimous election as Speaker.—•
His high administrative capacity
while occupying this position, caused
all eyes to be turned td him as the
proper man to till the chair of State
when Bullock fled the country. The
manner in which he boldly assumed
the responsibilities of the situation
during the unexpired term of Bul
lock. tended still further to inspire
confluence and respect and when the
Convention met, composed of the
best men from all parts of the State
his renomination was the most spon
taneous and hearty outbuist of popu
lar feeling that had been experienced
in many years. The enemies who
had lv on fatening on our misfortunes
felt that th eir time was drawing to
a dose and our people realized that
‘‘Bertram's right and Bertram’s
would soon meet on Ellou
gowau height," and all hearts rejoic
ed.
His election was almost unanimous
No government since the colonial
>hiy> Has ever received such an as
tounding majority. His subsequent
p reer U:ls carried no disappointment
, min an unostentatious, he directs
V' entire time and energies to the
o. m barge of his executive duties,
Neither unjust to his enemies nor
Initial to his friends. If ever Geor
gia has had a Governor free from
semblance of humbug. Governor
' ■ i> is the man, and we sincerely
i;." mat his future conduct of the
••m.of Georgia wilt be as wise and
as ft has been in the past.
autcMnal Airs.
Leaves are falling, though-coal is not,
And pumpkins are yellow, and maids
are blue,
Potatoes and apples”’begin to'rot’;
There's many a liver congested, too.
The dews stay late on the cabbage leaf,
And the red, red beet forsakes the
ground,
And lovers' wanderings grow more brief,
And fewer loafers are loafing around.
The celery rivals the turnip fair;
There's new delight in the tender steak ;
And boys go munching the chestnut rare
Without one thought of the stomach
ache.
1 he last of the cattle shows is seen ;
The monster squash to the cow is fed ;
Every thing's brown that once was green,
Except tomatoes, and they aie red.
The drowsy citizen hates to rise ;
The hash may be Cold, but so is the air;
Tis heaven to slumbea, for now the flies
Are less affectionate and more rare.
And who is the busiest man we see?
’i is the doctor, dashing by in his chaise;
And well may he hurry, you will agree,
For it isn’t every patient that pays.
Tis a rare, rare feCitedli—so breezy and
bright,
r i he daisies, and even the squashes arc
gay.
One wouldn’t regret the cold at night,
If it wasn't so deuoedly cold by day.
A wondering shiver inspires the doubt
Whether Indian summer will come this
year;
But its warmth can be felt when you don’t
go out,
And its haze may be seen through a
glass of beer.
To Young Men
The young man who has an ambition to
make a great noise in this world should
learn boiler making. He can make more
noise at that trade than anything else he
can engage in.
If he believes a man should “strike for
wages he should learn blacksmithing—es
peeially, if he is good at “blowing.”
If he would embrace a profession in :
which he can rise rapidly he should be-
Gome an aeronaut. He couldn't find any- 1
thing better “for high.”
He certainly could do a staving (and
perhaps a starving) business at the cooper
trade.
If lie believes in ‘‘measures, not mCri,”
he will embark in the tailoring business.
if the one grand object of his life is to
make money he should get a position in
the United States Mint.
If he is a punctual sort of a chap, and
anxious to be ‘‘on time,” he should put his
hands to watch-making.
If he believes iu the chief end of man
to have his business largely felt, why, of
course, he will become a hatter.
If he wants to “get at the root of a
thing,” he will become a dentist—although
if he does he will be often found “looking
down in the mouth.”
If a man is a bungler, at his best, lie
should become a physician—and then he
will have none of his bad works thrown
upon his hands. It is generally buried out
of sight yo u know.-
Should he iucline unto high living, but
prefer a plain board, then the carpenter
trade will suit him. He can plain board
enough at that.
If he is needy and well-bred, he will be
1 right at home as a baker.
He shouldn’t become a segar maker. If
he does, all his work will end in smoke.
The young man who enjoys plenty of
: company and is ever ready to scrape ac
: quaintauce will find the barber profession
I a congenial pursuit.
The quickest way for him to ascend to
i the top round of his calling is to become
Ia hod carrier.
i Avery “grave young man” might flour
ish as an undertaker.
Don't learn chair-making for no matter
how Well you might please your customers
they will sooner or later get down on your
work.
And don't become an umbrella maker,
for their business is “used up.”
If he would have his work touch the
heads of the nation, we know of no way
he could sooner accomplish such an object
thau by making combs.
The young man who would have the
fruits of his labor brought before the eyes
of the people will become an optician.
The work, being easily seen through, can
not be difficult to learn.
A man can always make a scent in the
perfumery business.
If a young man is a paragon of honor,
truth fullness, sobriety, has never sworn a
profane swear, and hits twenty thousand
dollars that he has no use for—then he
l 6hould immediately start a newspaper.
The Newspaper.
We have ever valued the well conducted
newspaper as a great educator of the peo
ple. and have often wondered how any
body living at the present time could be
without it. We have noticed in our trav
els, especially amongjthe farmers, that those
who do not take a newspaper have but fit
tie idea of the improvements made to fa
cilitate farm labor, or what is going on in
the world outside of their immediate
neighborhood, and are considerably aston
ished at the knowledge displayed by their
neighbors. More especially have we re
marked the difference of intelligence in
families that take newspapers and those
who do not. We had prepared an article
for our Taper on the subject, but in casu
ally looking over Messrs. Rowell & Co's.
American Newspaper Rate Book, our eye
rested on an article headed "How to buc
ceed in Business,” w hich expressed our
idea of a newspaper so much better that
we at once concluded to adopt it. Here
it is:
“The man who refuses to patronize the
newspaper is the man of morbid disposi
tion. of small ideas and no business talent.
His light, if he has any, is so completely
concealed beneath the bushel of self that
it will never burn to any practical purpose,
and may be extinguished without A single
sigh from the world around. Such a per
son is known by his works, A spirit of
liberality and benevolence never animates
him, but he lives on, wondering at the suc
cess of others and bewailing his own hard
lot.
The newspaper is to be the individual
what hearing is to the blind. It teaches
him better thunauythingjelse what is going
on around, puts him in communication
with neighboring countries and nations,
gives thq,earliest details of commercial and
political news, and tends in the greatest
degree to true intellectual development;
It has a spirit of universality found no
where else; self is forgotten in the more
importent events daily chronicled, and we
are shortly led to consider ourselves only
as parts of the great whole which go to
make up the grand result.
Take from us the press, and we should
immediately fall back to a level with those
who lived in the age of ignoi’ance and des
potism. 'Tis only through this agency
that we are better than they and enjoy
liberties and privileges of which they nev
er dreamed. Books have their value and
merits, both of the first order and of un
deniable importance, as a power, the news
paper surpasses them all. It goes every
where, is read by everyone, and makes uo
the public opinion of the day. Without
it we should be lost. Business would come
to a stand-still, markets be unsteady;
stock unobtainable at any fixed value, and
everything else uncertain and fluctuating.
To say nothing of its importance in insti
tuting and sustaining a correct literary
taste and healthful sentiment, commerce
is dependent in a great measure entirely
upon these daily publications. They give
impetus to trade, steadiness to the markets
and an increased activity to ail business
transactions. We daily examine the col
umns of the morning paper for the pri
ces curent if we have anything to buy or
sell, carefully peruse the various commer
cial reports, and act upon the facts thus
obtained. Nor i3 Hiis all, we look here
for something more. We expect to find
besides all the matter above enumerated,
intelligence which shall direct us where to
make our purchases and whom tc buy of
Indeed, at the present day, this last idea
has been reduced to such a system that nef
man, be he ever so shrewd and intelligent,
can hope to succeeed in any avocation
without thoroughly and energetically ad
vertising his business through the news
paper. Only thus, can he place himself
and his firm before the public in a right
light; and only thus can he be sure of
even moderate success. By such a course
an acquaintance is formed and a name es
ablished, customers are found, ana busi
ness made on the surest and safest founda
tion possible to build upou.”
House Work.
There is not a girl on earth, whether
the daughter of a prince or pauper, who,
if madb a perfect mistress of all house
hold duties, and were thrown into a com
munity wholly unknown, would rise from
one station to another, and eventually be
come the mistress of her own mansion,
while multitudes of young women placed
in positions of ease, elegance and affluence,
but being unfitted to fill them, will as cer
tainly descend from one round of the lad
der to another, until at the close of life
they are found where the really compe
tent started from. Mothers of America,
if you wish to rid your own and your
children's households of the destroying
locusts which infest your houses and eat
up your substance, take a price in educa
ting your daughters to be perfect mistress
es of every home duty: then if you leave
them without a dollar, be assured they
will never lack, a warm garment, a boun
teous meal, or a cozy roof, nor fail of the
respect of any one who knows them.
FOR THE RIGHT—JUSTICE TO ALL.
BAINBRIDGE GA. t NOVEMBER 16th 1872.
A Funny Chapter about Babies.
“Os all the created critters.” said Miss
Priscilla Pryrnm. emphatically, -Mu de
spise a baby! I used to reckon a ike the
most hateful; but a body knows in gen
eral where to look for snakes, and how to
keep clear of 'em ; whereas, there is no
getting out of the way of a baby. Go
where you will, in town ot country, on
land or sea. you find the pestiferous little
critters ; and as for street cars and steam
boats. a body thinks they •were made for
their special taegji
railroad president, or a steamboat compa
ny. I’d have “babies,” as well as “ladies,”
ears; and the wonder to me is that it
hasn't been done before this; twould pay
sure.
“The first thing a baby does is to holler,
and it hbllers till it's old enough to use
its hands and feet as well as its voice, and
the mischief it does do is beyond calkila
tion. Why, I've had my ink bottle upset
on my netv list carpet, and my best chinv
tea set, with the yaller rosebud on ’em,
knocked off the table—leastways a plate
and two cups ; and my “Rook of Beauti
ful Extracts” (that wafe given me by Por
tifield Grubs before he took to keepiu’
company With the bold minx Arthusy
Wilson,) torn to atoms a’most. And all
by a baby ; or, leastwise, by a variety of
’em, for they're alike as a basket of peas.
And what's most aggravatin’ of all is the
foolish mothers excusin’ the "little dar
ling's” on score of “cuttin’ their teeth.” or
“being so remarkably precious,” or some
thing else equally interesting: I've al
ways noticed that whatever badness a ba
by is guilty of, it’s always set down by it's
mother to either its teeth or its smart
ness.
“I wonder what the worrying little var
mints are made for, any why nhture coulu
not have sent folks into the world ready
growu up, or at least old enough to be of
some use. Now, what earthly use is a
baby, 1 should like to know ? A little
shapeless lump of flesh and blood, with
its bald head lolloping bn one side, and its
two goggle eyes staring straight at noth
ing, and its flabby fists catching at every
thing in its way, crying at everything sen
sible, and grinning at everything foolish.
And what nonsense they do talk to their
babies! W hy, 'twas only just now I
heard Mrs. Simmons, next door, chatter
ing on ihe back step to that bald-headed
monkey of hers. ‘M udder s only darlin’
itty piggiwiggy! Is he lioongry? Den
he seli hab one tacker for eaty. One nice
yticey itty tacker for mudder’s itty pre
cious plum-pie, apple dumpling, sugar tan
dy baby!’ Ball! it’s enough to make a
body sick, and I, for one, don't wonder
that children are so long in learning to
talk plainly, with such outlandish gibber
ish ding-donged into their ears day and
night. To my mind its more barbarous
than French Injury.
“And the ridiculous way in which some
folks dc dress their babies! All smoth
ered in satin, and feathers, and laces and
furs, for all the world like a milliner's fig
gur head. I declare to goodness that I
sometimes feel a sort of pity for ’em just
as when I see a organ-grinder’s monkey
sewed up in a wooden-sword by his side,
showing off to a grinning crowd in the
streets ; and which of the two is most
laffable I’m sure its hard to tell-
“ Innocents, indeed, jest as if they don't
know the badness they about, aed don't
mean to do it! Why, I've seen them kick
and scratch, and bite, and scratch. and pull
people's hair like young grizzilies, and to
this day you can’t convince me that Miss
Jones' baby didn't mean it when the little
wretch grabbed hold of my new curls, as
I was pretendin' to kiss it, afore Deacon
Peabody, (the week after poor, dear Mrs.
Peabody departed this life, it was) and
pulled the hull on'em right off afore liis
face, comb and all! If it hadn't been for
that Imi ht hev—but, ahem ! All that
I can row say is that Cm not likely to be
pestered out or my life with one of the
ugly, dirty, good-for-nothing, little var
mints. Os all the troubles and trials of
this moral state and valley of tears, deliver
me from a baby !”
Mothers. —Some one has said that
a young mother is the most beauti
ful thing in nature. Why qualify it ?
Whv voung? Are not all mothers
beautiful ? The sentimental outside
beholders may prefer youth in the
pretty picture, but I am inclined to
think that sons and who
are most intimately concerned m the
matter love and admire their moth
ers most when they are old How
suggestive of something holy ai *d
venerable it is when a person talks
of his “ dear mother.” Away with
vonr mincing “mincing “mammas,”
suggestive only of a fine lady, who
deputes her duty to a nurse, a draw
ing-room maternal parent, who is
afraid to handle her offspring for
fear of soiling her new gown. Give
me the homely mother, the arms of
whose love are all embracing, who
is beautiful always whether old or
voung. whether arrayed in satin, or
modestly habited m bombazine.
Girls ami Matrimony.
Mby should you blauie girls for
setting their hearts on matrimony ?
It is what gills were made for. No
sensible girl desires to be an old
maid. Heaven did not mean it. A
poodle or an “ism” will not satisfy
her, neither will a vote. What she
wants is a home and afire-side—a
great, good loving iellow to cherish
and protect her there, and his chil-
call her “mother/* “The
World r*f tile affections is her world
—not that of man’s aspiring and
if she looks her prettiest, and does
her best to become possessed of a
place in it, what wonder ? Os course,
she should marry for love, and not
for money ; and in spite of all the
talk to the contrary, most women
think they do. But one’3 perfect
ideal is seldom met with ; and if after
declaring that only an Apollo with
a superhuman intellect could possi
bly satisfy her a girl marries a rath
er frivolous young man, with no pre
tence whatever to good looks, she
has has not necessarily done so with
out love. The greenest kind of men
and women have a mysterious fasci
nation for some one individual of
the opposite sex. No one ever hears
it alleged as a fault that young
Brown is determined to marry, but
iu Miss Brown it is a terrible crime.
Why, Heaven knows ! He pays her
board, but she takes care of his but
tons, and relinquishes more than he
does; For my part, I like to see a
girl make up her mind to marry, and
do it. It is possible for her to be
wretched, of course ; but never dis
mally so as a spinster in a boarding
house up stairs back room, with cat
for company and a woman’s rights
lecture her only chance of recreation.
A buttonless husband, with nothing
in his pocket but a T>utclier’s bill,
twins in the cradle, and an intoxica
ted maid-of-all-worlc in the kitchen,
are bliss in comparison. And what
I say is, let the single women marry,
and let them not be blamed for try
ing to do it.
A Fathers Adviee to a Bride.
Said ft young husband whose business
speculations were unsuccessful, “My wife’s
silver teasat, the bridal gift of a rich un
cle. doomed me to financial ruin. It in
volved a hundred unexpected expenses,
which in trying to meet have made me
the bankrupt I am.” His experience is
the experience of many others, who, less
wise, do not know what is the goblin of
the house, working its destruction. A sa
gacious father of great wealth exceedingly
mortified his daughter by ordering to be
printed on her wedding cards, “No pres
ents except those adapted to an income of
$1,000.” Said he, “You must not expect
to begin life in the style I amiable by many
years of labor to indulge ; and I know of
nothing which will tempt you to try it
more than the well-intentioned but per
nicious gifts of rich friends.” Such ad
vice to a young daughter was timely. If
other parents would follow the same plan,
many men would be spared years of inces
sant toil and anxiety: they would not
find then'selves on the downward road,
because their wive3 had worn fill of their
salary or expended it on the appointments
of the house. The fate of the poor man
who found a lynch pin and felt himself
obliged to make a carriage to fit it, is the
fate of the husband who finds his bride in
possession elf gold and silver valuables,
and no large income to support the own
er's go>d and silver style.

with manageable daughters ? The
bachelor.

ing parties, and told to drop in just
■When it was convenient ? Tne bach
elor.

and when he dies has flowers strewn
on his grave by the girls that could
not entrap him? The bachelor.
Who goes to bed early because
time drags heavily with him ? The
married man.
Who gets a scolding for picking
out the softest part of the bed and
for waking up the baby in the mor
ning? The married man.

Housekeepers Help.
\ eal Moued. —Line a small mould
with hard boiled eggs, cut across so
as to show the yolk, aud 611 it up
with small pieces of veal nicely fla
vored, and fillup with clear veal jelly
or isinglass jelly.
Burnt Butter. —Put a couple of
otiuces of butter in a frying pan, set
it on the fire ; when of a dark brown
color put in a half teacup of vinegar,
a little pepper and salt. This is good
for fish, salad or eggs. “ *'
Boston Pudding. —Take six ounces
of tine flour, six ounces of fresh suet,
shred fine, six ounces of raisins
stoned, a cup of molasses, a cup of
milk. Mix well, put in a basin, tie
a cloth over, and boil for three or
four hours. Serve with sweet liquid
sauce.
To Cleanse White Silk Lace.—
Hang the lace in a box, on the bot
tom of which is a chafing dish with
sotne lighted charcoal in it ; upon
this strew some brimstone, cover up
the box closely, and let the lace hang
several hours-
Luncheon DiSh. —Take a French
roll, and cut thin slices of bread and
butter ; cut a boiled egg across, lay
a slice of egg on each piece of bread
and butter, salt and pepper ; place
an anchovy or a sardine, nicely skin
ned, curled around on the egg ; gar
nish with salad.
Baked Tomatoes. —Take them when
fully ripe, cut off a slice from the
stem side, scoop out the pulp of the
tomato, and mix with it bread crumbs
pepper and salt. Fill the empty
shell with this mixture, replace the
slices, put them in a _ shallow pan,
and bake one hour.
To Keep Worms from Dißed Fruit.
—Place your fruit in a steamer—a
pot of boiling water covered tightly.
When thoroughly heated, tie them
immediately in a clean linen or cot
ton bag, and hang them_ up. This
methed is preferable to heating in
an oven, as that is apt to render
them hard, even if you are so fortu
nate as not to burn them.
To Make Grape Butter. —Pick the
grapes from the stems ; wash and
put them in a pot with a very little
water as there is a great deal of juice
in them. Boil until tender ; then
take off and strain them through a
colander. Put a pound of sugar to
a quart of juice. Boil and stir well
until done. No spices required.—
Grapes that fail to ripen may be used
profitably in this way.
Luncheon Cake.— One pound of
dough, two ounces pounded sugar,
two eggs. Beat all well together ill
a basin in the same manner as eggs
are beaten, only use the hand in
stead of the whisk ; set in a mould
to rise sor 1 three-q larters of an hour;
then bake in a quick oven. When
eaten it should have the appearance
of honeycomb. This is a very nice
luncheon cake, and will make a de
licious toast when stale.
Separating Bepfellows.— At the
Wisconsin Fair, says a writer in the
Chicago Journal, “one of the most
laughter provoking of all the ‘patents’
exhibited, w r as a bedstead with a
partition extending from tfee head
board about half way down the bed.
The inventor claims that the object
of this great invention is to prevent
bed fellows from inhaling each others’
breath. Doubtless in some cases,
the dividing line would be very de
sirable. Many were the jokes per
petrated on ‘the patent divore court/
as the new invention was called, and
as all the married folks took a wide
latitude in discussing the merits of
the new arrangement very many
sharp hits and dubious puns were
made at the expense of the invention
on and of each other as well.
Those who fly from trouble to the bot
tle are like the man vfflo jumped into the
river to escape the ditch.
. Hope without patience would be life
kindling into over intensity, and burning
itself out in fruitless longings.
Miss Kate Stanton, of Providence,
B. 1., editress of the New World,
will enter the lecture field this Fall.
One of the lectures will be “Whom
to Marry,” considered scientifically.
