CARROLLTON, GA. Feb. 2, 1’872.
EDWIN R, SHARRE, Editor.
We rco' ft slated that Louis
is making grand preparations for
the reception of Alexis, who has mag
nanimously consented to visit that city,
We did hope that all the flunkeyism in
connection with the visit of the grand
‘‘Juke” to this country, would be con
fined to North of Masons and Dixons
line.
—
From a statement made in the
Atlanta Sun, a few days ago, based
upon the census report of 1870, it is
stated that the tendency of W’hite emi
gration in Georgia is from the black
belt, to the white counties, and vice
versa, from the white counties to the
black belt. If this continues what
will be the result ?

Death of General Ewell.
General Ewell is dead. He died
at his residence in Maury county Ten
nessee on the 24th inst. General Ew
ell served with distinction in the late
civil war, and was heldinhig'h esteem
by Stonewall Jackson, with whom he
operated the first of the w r ar in the
Valley of Virginia. Ewell was every
inch a soldier, and was enthusiastical
ly devoted to the cause for which he
had draw r n bis sword. At the second
battle ®f Manassas he lost a leg, but
this did not keep him back from the
lront, and upon the death of Jackson,
lie was put in command of his corps.
It w\‘is while in this position that the
writer frequently saw him. His health
was much impaired by the loss of his
leg, and he looked w’hile acting as
corps commander in 1864, like a fitter
subject for the grave, than for the
stern and active duties of war.
Agricultural Progress—Fertili
zers.
In com ersation w ith farmers of this
county, we learn that a considerable
revolution has taken place in the last
year or two in the productions of Car
roll. Cotton, formerly cultivated on
a very limited extent, has increased
rapidly in the last few years in pro
duction, so that if the ratio continues,
in the future, as it has in the past, this
county will, ere long,take rank among
the foremost cotton producing coun
ties of the State. This increased pro
duction, we are told has been produ
ced by the use of fertilizers. Ilereto-
fore, there has *been no difficulty in
making sufficient weed, butthe short
ness of the summer, prevented the
maturity of the fruit, and consequent
ly the yield was very limited By
the use though of fertilizers, the fruit
lias been stimulated to early maturity,
and the result has been most gratify
ing to farmers, and they now look up
on cotton culture in this climate, with
such stimulants, as a success.
Satisfied with their experience in
the past few years, in the use of fertil
izers, the fanners of this section are
making extensive preparations for a
more general use of them, and if the
seasons are favorable we have no
doubt, but that Carroll county will
make twenty-five or fiftj per cent
more cotton in 1872, than any year
heretofore.
We are glad to note this increased
production, by our people of the great
staple King Cotton. We are also
happy to learn that the farmers of
Carroll county are progressing, in the
the cultivation of the soil, for after all
they are the backbone of the country,
and upon their prosperity depends
that of all other classes.
The Home Paper.
This is the season of the year, says
the Jamestown Journal, when the
large city newspaper and magazine
publishers are sending out their pros
pectuses into the country, and every
post-office is flooded with “great in
ducements” to subscribe for this and
that periodical. This is all right, pro
vided you do not lose sight of the fact
that you have a newspaper nearer
your own door that is a hundred times
more closely identified with your pros
perity, and more sincerely interested
iu the welfare of your own neighbor
hood and county, than all the city pa
pei’B combined. A cotempoary, in re
marking on this subject, says: “Do
the city papers say anything in regard
to your own county? Nothing. Do
they contain notices of your schools,
churches, meetings,-improvements and
hundreds of other local matters of in
terest, which your papers publish with,
out'pay? Not a® item: Do they ev
er say a word calculated to draw at
tention to your county and its numer
ous thriving towns, and aid in their
progress and enterprise?—Not a line.
And yet there are men who take such
contracted views of this matter, that,
unless they are getting as many square
inches of reading matter in their own
paper as they do in a city paper, think
they are not getting the worth of their
money. It reminds us of the person
who took the largest pair of boots in
the box, simply because they cost the
same as the pair much smaller, that

For tM Carroll County Timer
Education and the Public School
System.
(continued.)
Mr. Editor : — ln my last commu
nication I submitted this proposition.
“ Should the taxable property of the
State be subject to a special tax to
make up the deficiency (if any) in the
amount required” for supporting a
public school system ?
I will give my own views on this
question according to my own convic
tions as to what is right, well knowing
that they will find no favor in certain
“ Circles,” and that they will not be
endorsed by every one. For instance
there is a small class in every commu
nity who experience a seuse of horror
whenever it becomes necessary for
them to “ go down into their pocket.”
No argument can be urged in be
half of any great enterprize, or w T ork
of general or public utility which will
convince them of its importance, un
less you can also satisfy them at the
same time that the measure xcill re
duce their taxes.
And if the proposed measure will
admit of a remote prospect of an in
crease of their taxes, why then they
are opposed to it from principle l
There is also another small class in
some sections w ho are opposed to ele
rating the masses. They are gener
ally excusable- They are generally
a little above mediocity m the way of
cunning and trickerry and their suc
cess depends entirely upon this state
ofthing, and they well know fha
whenever the masses are educated
and raised to a proper standard of in
telligence, and are able to read and
gather information for themselve, that
they can no longer be duped by them,
but as a consequence of educational
abvantages, that they will have inde
pendent ideas of their own, and that
their judgement and not their preju
dices, will be the medium throngh
which to convince, control and sway
them.
We must therefore make due allow'-
ances for the tw o small classes, alluded
to above, and not be surprised, if we
find them drawn out in battle array,
against the cause of popular education
With your consent I will address
myself to the commen sense of the
common people, and if in their judge
ment, my views are incorrect, by their
verdict I fall, and if the statements
which I make are indisputable truths,
supported by reason, justice, and equi
ty. I will not fear their verdict, be it
what they may.
I answer unhesitatingly that proper
ty should be subject to a special tax
for school purposes. It becomes my
duty to give some reason why it should,
which I will endeavor to do.
In the first place it is a maxim in
the economy of civil government, that
every man is required to relinquish cer
tain rights for the benefit of society,
and for the wqll being of the state.—
Each individual is required to contrib
ute a certain portion of his own acqui
sitions in the way of taxes for the sup
port of the government, which gives
him protection. The same argument
will apply to the case now being dis
cussed. Every man is interested in
the welfare of society because his in
dividual interest is so intimately con
nected therewith, as to be iuscperable.
Society is regulated by the moral tone
which predominates, among its mem
bers, and the sense of right, and jus
tice which characterizes its people.—
These attributes can only be develop
ed in their purity by the means, and
though the agency of enlightened rea
son. The stability and permanency
of a government depends upon the
virtue and intelligence of the citizens
composing it, and while a person may
in the maiu be virtuous without the
advantages of an education, it will not
I presume be insisted by any one that
he can have any general intelligence
without it. Every man is a voter
in a government like ou-rs. He is
called upon occasionally to express
his sentiments at the ballot box. In
questions of vital interest, and strrely
unless he is informed and enlightened
on the topic or subject, claiming his
attention, and upon which he Is to cast
his vote, it is simply a farce and a
mockery. He may vote for what he
believes to be right, when at the same
time he would think entirely different
ly if he had possessed the ability to
investigate for himself.
Experience and observation have
shown that men who are educated
make better citizens than those who
are not. This is not because the
nature of the man is changed, but
because he is thereby enabled to un
derstand, and discharge his duties, in
a manner which is better calculated
to advance and promote the general
good.
Now if the foregoing premises are
correct, and are true, ought not the
people to be williug ta pay taxes for
this purpose, as a matter of policy,
and self defence? Will not the ad
vantages which will result to the pub
lic, more than counterbalance the in
convenience to which we would be
subjected? I think it would, and I
think that the amount thus invested,
would be like bread cast upon the wa
ters to be gathered at a distant day.
In the next place I ara infayor of it
because it ts a requirement of the Con
stitution, imperative in its demands,
and which we are not at liberty to ig
nore ©r disregard.
The first section on that subject in
the State Constitution is as follows*.
The General Assembly at its first
session after the adoption of the Con
stitution, shall provide a thorough
system of general education, to be for
ever free to all the children of the
State, the expense of which shall be
provided for by taxation, or other
wise.” And after mentioning certain
funds specially set apart for this pur
pose, the third section says:
‘-And if the provisions herein made
shall at at any time prove insufficient,
the General Assembly shall have pow
er to levy such general tax upo'* the
property of the State, as may be nec
essary for the support of said school
system.”
The first section quoted is not in any
sense equivocal or doubtful. It ab
solutely commands a fact to be done,
and says in so many words, “the Gen
eral Assembly shall provide a system
of general education, and that they
shall provide for the expenses by
taxatiou or otherwise. The other
section clothes the Legislature with
the power to carry into effect this
section, by levying a general tax on
*he property.
With these Constitutional provis,
ions, and requirements staring us in
the face, I apprehend there is
no one who will evade or ig_
nore them. Every good citizen is
in favor of yielding obedience to
the laws of the land, and consequent
ly every good citizen must be in favor
of a measure which is provided for,
not only by the Legislature, but by
the Constitution of the State, the
great fundamental superstructure,upon
which all legislative enactments must
depend. If it is wrong, let it be mod
ified, amended, or repealed, but while
it is the late, it should be observed,
and faithfully executed.
But aside from all legal and consti
tutional arguments, and conclusions,
let us discuss the question in the light
of reason, and by the standard of jus
tice. Follow' me back through the
flight of the last decade to the time
when the tocsin of war w r as sounded
throughout the length and breadth of
the land, and a call was- made for vol
unteers to serve the country in its
hour of peril Remember the words
of cheer, and comfort that were spoken
to them, and the solemn pfomisses
that w ere made to men as induce
ments to procure soldiers to fill the
ranks of the army. They were called
from their peaceful and prosperous
pursuits to settle in deadly conflict a
quarrel which was not engendered or
brought about by their conduct, and
to which the majority of the common
people were opposed.
They w'ere told to go with the as
surance that their families should be
well providedfor and that they shoidd
want for nothing in their absence.
Public meetings were called, speech
es w r ere made, and resolutions were
adopted, declaring that the soldiers
of the country were entitled to the
everlasting gratitude of the people,
that the soldiers’ widow' should be
be provided for from the bounties of
the people, and that the soldier’s or
phan would be the peoples w'ard. We
promised well, but how' is it with our
performances ? Have we in good
faith carried out the agreement ?
Have we observed and fulfilled our
promises? Have we executed our
agreement ? Have we complied with
the solemn pledges voluntarily made.
Alas! these questions have been
tried and determined by the test of
facts and figures, aud the verdict is
announced with overwhelming force
against us. We have violated our
most sacred pledges ! We have prov.
ed recreant to the high trust reposed !
We have repudiated our agreement-
We have refused to educate the chil
dren of killed or maimed soldiers, as
well as others who are unfortunate,
and unable to do so themselves, and
we should be made to do so, by a
wholesome administration of the law'
in levying a tax upon property suffi
cient for the purpose, if the means al
ready provided are insufficient. The
system should embrace all classes as
beneficiaries, and the one especially
referred to is mentioned simply because
it includes a greater number who are
illiterate than any other, and because
their opportunities are more limited.
I have given some of my reasons in
support of my position on the ques
tion of a public school system, and on
the question of levying a tax to sup
port it. lam aw are that the task has
been but feebly and imperfectly per
formed, but at the same time I can
truthfully a* sert that I have written
nothing in a partizan spirit, or to pro
mote party ends, and I have the con_
solation of feeling and know ing that
I have a qood subject and that lam
on the right side.
Hoping that this question will find
an abler advocate w T ho will speak to
the people, through the medium of
your valuable paper.
I remain yours truly,

THE ATLANTA CONSTITUTION FOR
1872.
This year promises to be second to
none in local and national importance.
The great Presidential contest be
tween the Democratic flfncfßepublican
parties, or between Constitutionalism
and the rights ot 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 w'ill 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 New'S 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.
