has been appointed by Govenor Smith,
and confirmed by the Senate, as Chief
Justice, in place of Lochrane, lately
resigned. This is a deserved tribute
to the integrity and ability of this no

aloof from the contaminating influence

FriendTlarron of the Hews is noth

surprised' to sec him come at us in the
above hoggish way.

ty Hews comes to us rather faint and

is not going to let his light go entirely
out. He is entirely too funny to be
spared from the profession.
Judge W. F. Wright,
We learn that Governor Smith has
appointed this gentleman Judge of the
Tallapoosa Circuit. We congratulate
the people of this circuit, upon their
good fortune, in securing so excellent,
kind and courteous a Judge, to preside
over their courts. Judge Wright pre
sided in this circuit during the past
year, and Ids uniform kindness towards
the members of the Bar, officers of
the court, witnesses and litigants, has
elicited for him, the highest compli.
ments from almost the entire circuit.
His decisions have, so far as we are in
formed, given general satisfacion. and
wehelieve every one carried before the
Supreme Court has been affirmed.
Some of the older members of the Bar,
who have witnessed, with what deco
rum, dignity and dispatch, Judge
Wright has held the Courts ofthis cir
cuit, the past year, say that they are
forcibly reminded of the days of the
“illustrious Ilill.” We hope Judge
AV right will continue his good name as
Judge of this circuit.
A Go:d Appointment.
AA e are glad to sec in the Atlanta
papers that, Professor Gustavus J. Orr,
has been appointed by Governor
Smith, State School Commissioner, in
place ol Lewis, lately resigned. This
is a good appointment, and one that
we are satisfied will give satisfaction
to the entire people of the State. Pro
lessor Orr has bean identified with the
cause of education in the State for many
years; in fact his life has been devoted
to the noble cause of education, with
the most ardent enthusiasm. He has
been con nected with some of the best ed
ucational institutions in the State. For
a long time, lie was Professor ofMath
cmatics in Emory College, then Presi
dent of the Female Masonic Institute
at Covington, but for the last eighteen
months, Professor of mathematics in
Oglethorpe University at Atlanta. In
all of these position's he has uniformly
given satisfaction, and drawn around
him as a teacher and gentleman, hosts
of admirers.
His appointment, as State School
Commissioner, was peculiarly appro
priate, as he has been identified with
the cause of popular education, since
its inception in 1869, having been a
member of the committie ot the Teach
ers association that drew up the pres
ent system. If any man in the State
can make the present Public School
system a success,, we believe that Pro
fessor Orr is the man, AVc congrat
ulate the people of Georgia upon his
appointment.

The following are extracts from
the forthcoming January Report ot
tha Agricutural Department:
The Department is now receiving,
pricipally for distribution to the South
in liberal portions for experimental
purposes, improved varieties of field
and sugar corn, field and garden peas
and beans, Italian rye, grass bromus,
schraderi and lucerne mange, lamer
aud sugar beet, cabbage and onion
seeds.
It will also receive during, this month
fresh seeds of the Ramie andJute plants
the latter of which cannot be grown
successfully north of Tennessee. Oats
and barley, of approved varieties, have
been ordered from Scotland and Ger
many, and will be distributed in ample
time for spring sowing. A choice va
riety of white spring wheat, grown in
Oregon, from seed imported from Aus
tralia, has just been distributed to the
North-western States and Territories.
As there is much inquiry in the South
ern States for the seed of the Japan
clover, it is deemed proper to republish
from the annual report of 1869, the
following opinion by the Superinten
dent of the garden and grounds of the
department:
The Lespedega Striata Japan bush
clover is a leguminous plant that has
lately attracted some attention in the
Southern States as a forage plant. It
is poorly adapted to an} r such use, and
not by any means worthy of recogni
tion by the cultivator. It is a low
hard wooded annual, spreading freely
on sandy and poor soils, with a very
small and ?canty foliage.

EduQation and the Public School
System.
(CONTINUED.)
We a ware that something
should be done in the premises, but
the question arises, what is it? How
is it to be done? and bow is the mis
chief to he remedied ? I answer that
we should do all in our power in a pe
elin' ary point of view,'so far as we
are individually concerned, and in
the next place we shou and endeavor to
eheerish, foster and encourage a pub
lic School System , one suited and
adapted to the wants, necessities and
requirements of our county and the
state at large.
But you say you have no con fidence
in public schools, you tell me that
the public school system proposed and
adopted by the legislature of 1870
was a failure, how do you know this ?
AVas it tried ? I answer positively that
it was not? No fair test was given it.
Like all great enterprises it required
time and experience to finish and per •(
feet it. It was anew thing with us
though a system of like character has
been successfully established, and sus
tained in many of the northern and
eastern states. Now what is the his
tory of public schools in those States?
Think you they sprang up like !
“ Jonah’s gourd, and attained to their
full shape in one night, or in one 1
month or in a year % History informs I
us that the growth was slow, that the
proposition to establish a system of
public instruction was in great dis
favor with the masses. People were
arrayed against it on every hand lie
cause of the supposed onerous burden
of taxation which its introduction
would impose upon the people Form
idable opposition confronted it from
every quarter. Legislators denounc
ed it from their seats in the General
Assembly, men who were battling for
what they considered right and prop
per denounced it from principle, while
others did so in order to pander to the
prejudices, and to court the favors of
the ignorant. The public press how
ever (that most powerful engine of
reform, and the most formidable foe
to ignorance,) spoke in behalf of the
measure, and the people were at length
induced to try the experiment. The
result was that the first attempt a
mounted almost to a failure, and ser
ved rather to increase, than to allay
the opposition to the measure. All the
money set apart and appropriated by
the Legislatures was- used in organ
izing and perfecting a system or base
of operation. It was anew thing,
and the managers, and the people, and
all concerned, were inexperienced, and
the consequence was that the plan was
slow of development. In fact it was
several years before a satisfactory sys
tern was arranged and organized; one
which would satisfy the demands of
the people—quiet their clamor, and
allay their opposition.
AVhen by slow degrees it had prov
ed itself a blessing to the common
country, when every one came to re
gard it in the light of of a blessing
and a reform they became wedded to
it, and it became a pet institution, and
altogether indispensable.
If to day in any of those States
where the system has had a fair tiial,
a candidate for popular suffrage was
to announce the fact that he was op
posed to public schools , he would be
unable to command a respectable vote
and why? Because by its salutary
effect and by the good results, and
good fruits emerging from it, it lias
forced itseif into favor with the peo
ple, notwithstanding their stubborn
opposition to it
It is a sytem with them, regular as
clock-work, and under its benign in
fluence, the state of society is better,
the moral tone is healthier, and gener
al intelligence is disseminated. AA"hy
I would not be afraid to venture the
assertion that in the State of Vermont,
the number who are unable to read
and write is not very far in excess of
the number in Carroll county, I know
it is unpleasant to refer to the num
ber so often, but I wish to call your
attention to it, just think of it! 3075
persons who cannot read, and 3900
who cannot write.
But lam digressing somewhat. I
said that the school system nere had
not had a fair test and now to the
facts :
The Legislature in 1870 passed an
act “to establish a system of public
instruction.” This act provides that
the county board shall be vigilant, and
zealous in in promoting and establish
ing the school system. They are re
quired to see that persons applying as
Teachers, are well qualified for the
discharge of all the duties devolving
on them. They must be examined in
public , in order that that the public
may witness their examination and
may be posted as to their qualifications,
fitness or unfitness for the position.
The act requires that they produce
satisfactory evidence of their good
moral character, and whenever a
Teacher is found wanting in any of
these requisites, if he is guilty of neg
lect, or is immoral, or cruel, or for any
other cause is unfit for the trust it is
the duty of the county comisstoner to
revoke his license as teacher. This
method places it entirely upon a sure
footing. Men who are citizens of the
county and selected by the people, are
clothed with full power to superintend
regulate, and guide the public schools
in a manner which will most conduce
to the generalinterest of all Ilf course
inlonq jeteut tnen mety be elect ed, put
this is nd objection tonic senbor «»?-]
tern, if it was it would apply with
equal force to any other organization. |
If tbjs objection is sufficient to defeat
a public school system, the same ar- J
guinent would suggest itselt with I
equal plausibility for abolishing*!!! *
legislative p>ower, the elective Iran- j
cliise, and even the sacred orgamza- i
tion of the church.
If therefore there is a failure « >r de
fect in the administration of the law, j
the remedy is plaiu and simple, elect .
new servants. * I
I will notice another provision in
the act, which indicates great wisdom
and sagacity on the part of its framer*. j
J. Sec. 3-2. provides that “ the cbil-j
drensof the white and eolored races
shall uot be taught together in any
sub-dstrict of the State.”
This provision puts an end to the :
objection which was urged against
such a system, “ that our children
would be compelled to attend school
with negro children The section al
luded to above precludes the , possibili
ty of the happening of any such hu
nfiliMing spectacle, AA T hile it is true
that schools may be organized for the
benefit of the colored children, where
there is a sufficient number to author
ize it, yet they must he entirely sepa
rate and disconnected from our own.
Another good feature in the act al
luded to, and which is calculated to
make the system permanent is that
property purchased for, or donated or
given for the purposse, cannot be lev
ied upon and sold by virtue of any
execution, not even taxes. Under this
law if a suitable site is once selected
and the necessary buildings erected,
it is all exempt from levy and sale,
against anything, provided the land
or site so exempt shall not exceed
four acres. This is for each district
(when once established) a permanent
site for the particular purpose for all
time to come. Whereas under our
: common system there there Is great
■ difficulty in getting a suitable house,
and the divisions and contention that
arises generally, defeats the school.
i A. wants it on his side of the creek,
1 B. wants it on the other, C., wants
to be “ chief cook,” and so does l>>
the result often is simply to defeat the
* school altogether, when if it was arrang
! ed on a systematic plan, all would ac
! quiesce and harmony would prevail
Another feature in the act that at
once commends itself to the intelli
gent reader is that “ the State Board
Commissioner shall not be permitted
to introduce intoithe schools any text
or miscellaneous books of a sectarian
oi sectional character.” It is provi
ded that for the support of these
schools, poll tax, the special tax on
shows and exhibitions, the tax on spir
-ituous and malt the proceeds
! arising from the Commutation of mill
! tary services, all endowments, devises,
! gifts and bequests made or hereafter
to be made to the State, or State
Board of Education, and one half of
j the net earnings of the AVestern &
Atlantic Railroad, are appropriated
for that purpose, and that if this
amount is not sufficient to support a
j public school for at least three months
in the year (which is free to all be
j tween the ages of six and twenty-one)
! then the deficiency is to be made up
by assessment on the taxable proper
ty of the State. AVas there anything
! wrong in this? Could there be anv
thing more equitable? Surely not!
The Constitution of the State makes
the tax collected on polls an exclusive
fund for this purpose. The tax on
shows, exhibitions and liquor, can be
easily avoided by withholding patron
! age from them, they are useless, aye!
worse than useless ditches, prepared
I to drain the private treasury of the
people. But if the people will patron
ize them, and spend their money with
them, with which they might educate
| their children, is it not right that
part of the money should come back
to the people, in the shape ot a tax
from such* institutions ? I think it is
right in principle, and I think you
will respond a hearty amen! The
State Road is the property of the peo
ple ! One half the net profits arising
therefrom is to be used as a school
fund. This of itself would amount to
a yearly bonus of one hundred and
fifty thousand dollars.
Now the principal question to be
considered is this. Should the taxa
ble property of the State be subject
to a special tax to make up the defi
ciency in the amount required ?
I will answer this question accord
ing to my own views, in my next com
munication. Meanwhile let the peo
ple study the question for themselves,
and give it that degree of careful in
' vestigation and thought of which the
importance of the subject matter en
titles it. In that or an article follow
ing it, I propose to show as I intend
ed to do in this one, that the school
act of 1870 was not a failure, but that
i it is a partial failure note and the rea
son why it is.
As b>rig articles are seldom read un
less they emenate from able authors,
and as I am well aware that I have no
claims to authorship, I will not tax
the readers of the Times with any
thing further at present, but will af
flict them with a short attack in the
next number. Your ob’t serv’t,

THE ATLANTA CUXSTITITION FOR
1872.
This year promises to be second to
none in local and national importance.
The great Presidential contest be
tweeu the Democratic and Republican
parties, or between Constitutionalism
and the rights of the States Upon the
one side, and Centralism and Impe
rialism upon the other, will agitate
the country to its remotest corners.
In State affairs the times will be no
less eventful. Just emerging from a
terrible crisis, the people of Georgia
will soon see the final developments
of the Radical drama enacted in the
State since the close of the war. Be
sides, there will-be the regular election
for Governor. •
The Constitution has a corps of cor
respondents, domestic and foreign, un
surpassed by any journal in the South.
It is published at the capital, and fur
nishes full reports of Legislative Pro
ceedings and the Supreme Court, to
gether with Telegraphic and Commer
cial News from all parts of the world.
Being at the political centre of
Georgia, it has superior advantages to
obtain the latest political and general
intelligence.
The Constitution is now the Official
Organ of the State of Georgia and
the Democratic party. Having been
unanimously elected at the last ses
sion of the General Assemby. It is
also the official paper of this city and
county.
To the people of Southwest Geor
gia we desire to call attention to the
fact, that the Atlanta Constitution
now reaches them with the Macon
papers of the same date
Every one who would keep up
with the times, and have an intelli
gent, well-informed house hold, should
by all means take his local paper and
one from the capital.
The Constitution now visits every
section and State, and as an advertis
ing medium is equal to the best.
