Modem Invention.
As along the street I blundered,
Much I marveled, much I wondered,
Seeing sights and things that mortal
Never saw or dreamed before:
On the pavement came a rapping
As of footfalls gently tapping,
And I heard a muslin flapping,
Which my eye would fain explore,
“’Tis some female,” then I muttered—
I have seen the thing before—
Only this and nothing more.
Came this female sweeping by me;
Fearing she should chance to spy me,
Suddenly I stepped into a
Friendly, waiting open door;
Thence I saw the lovely maiden—
Being from some distant Aiden—
All perfumed and dry goods laden,
Pass me and go on before.
Nought l had to do. but follow
And note down things she wore—
’Twas a mystery to explore.
And I found—bv close inspection—
That her haughty upper section,
Something chance had called a bonnet,
On its pericranium wore;
And her breast was heaving slow ly
’Neath a garment fashioned loco- ly,
And I knew tire movement wholly,
I had never seen before;
For I knew ’twas “patent heavers”
That this radient maiden wore,
Only those and nothing more.
And her cheeks were full and rosy—
I could tell you, iuter not, a
Secret that a druggist told me,
Os the color that she worc^—
Yet her cheeks were very pleasing,
But her look at me was freezing,
And she showed a sign of sneezing,
As she swept along before;
And she sneezed a pair of “plumpers”
Out at least a yard before,
Only this and nothing more.
Then I noticed an uncertain
Lift ng of the muslin curtain,
That her feet had deftly hidden
From my arrent before;
With each lift came a desire
That ’twould lif a little higher,
And at last it did aspire
Higher than I’d seen before;
And Jknew it was a “tilter”
That this saintly maiden wore;
Just a “tilter”—nothing more.
And the tilting and the rocking.
Up and down the splendid stocking
Gartered by a bluish ribon,
That 1 chanced to see she wore,
Showed me— 4 twas a sight for we'p’ng.
That a pair of calves were creeping
Out of place, as she was sweeping
Like a stately zueen before;.
Oa ve-i that she had lately purchased
From a fancy dry goods store,
Patent calves—and nothing more.
And the flutering and the flapping
Os the maiden’s gaudy trapping
Showed me sights that never mortal
Eye had dared to see befor ;
Sights revealed by every lifting
Ever were revealed before,
Nameless here forever more
And while thus her rigging flutteral,
Much I wondered, and I muttered;
“ And you call this thing a woman
That is trouncing on before,
She the brazen doll of fashion,
Wrapped in one tremendous passion;
Sudden from her noble station,
The thing that goes before;
Ob! that ever mortal vision
Should such mystery explore.
This I muttered—nothing more.
And the thought came o’er me gushing,
u Where has gone the art of blushing
That we loved in wife or maiden
lu the saintly days of yore?”
Call me, if you will, uncivil,
While I name her “tiling of evil,”
And I wish the very devil
Had the toggery she wore,
And again she was arrayed in
Dresses like her mother wore,
Vanished now forever more -
To Develop Talent.
Place a man In -a position that will
fearfully tax him and try him; a posi
tion that often brings the blush to his
cl>eek and the sweat to his brow; a po
sition that will over-master him at all
times, and cause him to rack his brain
for resources. Place him in a posi
tion like this. But every time he trips
go to his rescue; go not with words of
blame or -censure, but go with manful
words of encouragement; look him
boldly in the eye, and speak them with
sould and emphasis. This is the way
to make a man of a boy, and a giant
of a man. If a man has pluck and tal
ent, no matter whether he ever filled
a position or not, put him in it, if wor
thy, and he will soon not only fill it,
but outgrow it. But put one in a po
sition with a faint heart. This is the
w.ay to kill him. Put him in grandly
with most unmistakable confidence.
Drop no caveats, but boldly point the
way, and then stand by with a will
and countenance of a true friend.
Thus try twenty men, such as have
been named, and*nineteen will suc
coed.

CARROLLTON, GEORGIA, FRIDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY 23, 1872.
Written for the Carroll County Times
The Two Fnends,
!
BY LINDA.
The snow was falling fast, and the
wind blew cold &nd cutting - . The
thick, leaden clouds gave no promise
of the sunshine breaking through; but
every token of a long, gloomy- day: so
all, but those whom duty or poverty
forced out to brave the cold and storm,
were content to remain indoors; and,
drawing their chairs closer about
warm fires, endeavored* to shut out the
gloom and desolation without.
Such was the case with Maggie Lee
and Kittie Moss, who sat in the com
fortable dwelling of Mr. Lee. Like
too many, these two friends had spent
days, months and years, without doing
any good. They had tried to divest
life of all reality r and make it a dream of
joy—a beautiful romance. Their
hearts were closed to the solemn les
sons which the thoughtful gather along
the wayside; and, neglecting duty, each
day was spent in worldly amusements.
Were the pleasures which they en
joyed pure and lasting? The veiled
sigh and weary look oftimes betrayed
them. The flower of happiness
blooms only along the pathway of use
fulness and duty.
On the morning we have described,
Kittie glanced up from the novel she
was reading and saw herlriend sitting
in deep thought. She had noticed her
looking a little serious for several
days; why, she could not tell. Mag
gie was first to break the silence.
“Kittie have yon ever thought how
true it is that ‘no one can live to him
seif?’ Our lives are so closely blended
with those around us, that scarcely an
act passes unheeded ora word is spoken
that does not influence someone
either for night or wrong ”
“ I do not trouble myself to think
about such things” Kittie replied. “I
am satisfied to enjoy- life. Let others
do as they please; I am not to answer
for what they do.”
“But our influence and example may"
sometimes cause a person to do what
conscience may forbid,” said Maggie.
“W ell I see no use in being so par
ticular about little things. While I
can, I mean to enjoy life.’ ;
“Kittie, we are not in the right way
to enjoy life. lam utterly" tired of the
false pleasures and excitement of the
world. As I look back ever the past,
there is not a single pleasure which
h.as been real and lasting.”
“I do not think of the past,” said
Kittie. “It is gone; I have nothing
more to do with it. Life in the future
to me looks so beautiful, that I am
content to think only of that.”
“But what will we do, dear friend,
when all. is past? Life is beautiful; but
we may add charms that will make
death even more beautiful. ‘A thing
of beauty" shall be a joy forever.’
It has been just a week since I at
tended the party at Col. Day’s. Two
strangers were there who had stopped
to spend the night During the even
ing they were sitting near us, when
someone proposed a game of cards.
One gentleman was needed to com
plete our number, and I asked one of
the strangers to join us; but he refused.
I insisted, and at last he consented;
but I cannot forget the earnest, plead
ing look which his friend gave him;
then rising to leave the room, he said
softly, so that none except my-self
could hear, ‘you may never know the
harm you are doing.’
I did not enjoy the play as I expect
ed. I lost all interest, and soon pro
posed a change; but to all the game
was too exciting; and from the man
ners of the stranger I saw- that his
love for it was too great. What effect
that one deed of mine may have on
his future life I do not know; but I
1 am resolved never again to persuade
i a person into that which may result
in his ruin. I shudder when I think
how many young men have been lost
at the gambling table and wine cups;
these two sins go band in hand; and
doubtless many of these would never
have taken the first step, had they not
been persuaded by a lady to join in
the social game; that was the begin
ning of their ruin.”
Eighteen mouths have passed noise
lessly- by-. Let us look once more at
the two friends and see which has
found the better way to enjoy life.
A lovely day in May, beautiful and
mild, is drawing to a close. The air
is fragrant with the sweet breath of
flowers and nature wears a look of
gladness; but there is no joy in the
home of Mr. Moss. Kittie is dying.
In her ow r n little room by an open
window-, she is lying. The curtain
has been draw-n back to admit the
fresh breeze and permit her once more
to look on the beautiful flow-ers, her
own hands have cultivated.
% her side sits Maggie Lee, hold
ing her white, cold hand. Maggie
had been reading aloud from her little
Bible; but there was sadness in her
voice and tear-drops glistened on her
cheeks; her dear friend is dying with
no Savior to lead her “through the
valley and the shadow- of death.”
Maggie has greatly changed. The
wearv> restless look has faded; her
face wears one of' contentment and
peace. She has found religion a
priceless jewel which none can take
away. Her lile is now spent in doing
good. Her joys here are already
greater, and in Heaven she knows they
will be fadeless and pure.
The solemn silence was unbroken
until the dying girl spoke.
“Kiss me, darling Maggie; I will
soon be gone. Oh! it is so dreadful to
die! I did not think death would come
so soon. But it is too late! all is lost!”
As the church bell chimed the hour
of prayer, Kittie’s spirit passed into
the unknown future.
“God's love and power are one; and they
Who like the thunder of a sultry day,
Smite \o restore,
And they who, like the gentle wind, uplift
The petals of dew-wet flowers and drift
Their perfume on the air, [gift
Alike many serve him, each with their own
Making their lives a prayer.”
For the Carroll County Times.
Mr. Editor :—-There is such a
thing as, “forbearance ceasing to be
a virtue,” and we think the maxim is
fully verified in the case of the young
]adies of Garrolton.
There is not an issue of yotn valua
ble paper, but what has “ line upon
line,” of good advice to young ladies,
given we suppose, by some kind friend
of the oposlte sex, upon the all im
portant questions of good housewives
good cooks, Ac.
Certainly the writer of such pieces,
is a married man and speaks from ex
perience, or else he has very serious
notions of marrying soon, and of course
feels deeply interested in such matters.
The last piece we noticed of that
kind, w T as in your paper of the 9th
inst., and was headed as follows: “A
good wife must be a good house-keep
er. ’ That is very true and we cordialy
admit it, but at at the same time we
would respectfully- ask if our learned
friends thinks there is not anything
necessary to constitute a “ good wife
and good housekeeper,” but simply
krowing how to make mush, bake
asheakes and wash dishes? If so we
sincerely pity his judgment.
“ What does gentlemen wish, what
would they have, is ‘old clothes’ so
clean, or ash cake so sweet as to be
purchased at the price of women’s
slavery?” “ I know not what course
other women may take, but as lor me,
I know very well what I'U do.
’Tis a lamentable fact, that a great
many men of the present day", do not
estimate ladies worth, only in propor
tion to how much physical labor they
caa do, and their willingness to do the
same.
W c can often hear it said by- some
of them in speaking of the young la
dies, “ she's the gal to have," she don’t
mind splitting wood, drawing water,
and bending over the wash tub; we
don’t wish such gentlemen any harm,
but we will say in all kindness to our
fair friends, such fellows will do to
watch ; for nine times in ten they are
the very persons that spend their time
in loafing on the square, and their
money in the barrooms' and gambling
shops.
\Y ives cannot make good house ■
keepers unless husbands will furnish
good houses to keep, and something
nice-to keep in them, and we feel as
sured that if half the money spent in
carousing and Bacchanalian sports of
every kind, was appropriated to some
thing for home comforts, and to relieve
their dear zeives, as they call them, of
the arduous tasks imposed upon them,
there would be less complaint about
housekeeping.
Mr. Editor, when we commenced
this item, it was our intention, know
ing our leap year privileges, to give
our views of a good husband, also, to
give a few lines of advice to vounor
men, but the subject is so broad, that
we feel, that we could not do it justice,
so we have decided to postpone until
some otlier time.
If we were to attempt to enumerate
all that is wanting on the part of men,
to make them good husbands, and to
give them all the advice that we feel
they need, the list would be so long
that it would require more time, and
space than we have to devote at pres- !
ent.
W e will only say to them, “ please
pluck the beam out of thine own eye !
before y"ou attempt to pull the moat
out of our eyes.”
With many kind thanks to our male
friends, for their good advice, we close
with, Jloni soit qui-mal-x-pense.

The following advertisement ap
pears in a Canada paper :
“All dose people what I ose,
I’ll not ax ’em for pay,
But all dose people wfcat ose me,
Mud pay me immediate. ’
Go Hjme Boys,
Boys, don’t hang round the corners
of the streets. If you have any thing
to do, do it promptly, right off, then
go heme. Home is the place for boys
About the street corners and at the
stables they leara to talk slang, and
they learn to swear, to smoke tobacco,
and to do many other things which
they ought not to do. Do your busi
ness and then go home. If your busi
ness is play, play and make a business
of it. I like to see boys play good,
earnest, healthy g'ames. If I was the
town, I give the boys a good
spacious plav-ground. It should have
plenty of soft, green grass, and trees,
and fountains, and broad space to run
and jump, and to play, suitable plays.
I would make it as pleasant and lovely
as it could be, and I would give it to
the boys to play in, and when the play
was ended I would tell .them to go
home. For when boys hang round
street corners and the stables they get
slouchy and listless. Os all things I
dislike a listless boy or gill. I would
have a hundred boys like a hundred
yachts, with every spar straight and
every rope taut, the decks and sides
clean, the riging all in order, and
everything ready to slip the cable, and
fly before the wind, when the word
comes to go. But this cannot be if
you lounge about the streets and loaf
about the corners, and idle away your
time at the stables and saloons.—
\\ hen you are from home have some
business ; attend to yout business, and
then go home.—A. S. Scholar.
Get Married.
The venerable Peter Cooper, one of
the Magnates of New York, recently
in reply to an address of thanks from
the pupils of the School of Design at
Cooper’s Institute strongly advised
them to marry. Now eighty years of
age he does not write down a list of
impossibilities requiring unattainable
thousands, but back over a stretch of
sixty years he glances, and tells of the
great struggle of life as he knew and
felt it. Here he speaks with earnest
feeling of the one to whom he owed
a stronger strength and encourage
ment, which no circumstances could
deprive him of, but his own simple
eloquence must translate his truly hu
man heart : “I was cheered,” said he,
“ comforted, sustained and encour
aged by the greatest of human bless
ings, a dilligent, wise industrious,
faithful and affectionate wife. * *
“ Hence, ray last lesson
for the young is to marry at the proper
age, when, and not before, they can
see the way clear to a decent and com
fortable support, and thus fullfill the
first law of nature with a high and
holy sense of its happiness and duties
the greatest and most serious in the
path of life.”
Flight Watches.
A person who is sick enough to
need night watchers needs rest and
quiet, and all the undisturbed rest he
can get. If one or more persons are
in the room reading, talking, or whis
pering, as is often the case, this is im
possible. There should be no light
burning in the room unless it be a
very dim one, so placed, as to be out
of sight of the patient. Kerosene oil
should never be used in the sick room.
The attendant should quietly sit or
lie in the same room, or
ally better, in an adjoining room, so as
be within call if anything is to be
wanted. In extreme cases, the attend
ant can step quickly to the bedside to
see if the patient is doing well, but all
noise and the light should be carefully
excluded. It is a common practice to
waken patients occasionally, for fear
they will sleep too soundly. This
should never be done. Sleep is one
of the greatest needs of the sick, and
there is no danger of their getting too
much of it. All evacuations should
be removed at once, and the air in
the room kept pure and sweet by
thorough ventilation. —Herald of
Health .
The Way to Success. —A certain
man, who is very rich now, was very
poor when a boy. When asked how
he got his riches, he said ; “ My father
told me never play till my work was
finished, and never to snend morev
a y
till I had earned it. If I had an hours
work in the day, I must do that the
first thing and in an hour. And after
this I was allowed to play; and then
I could play with much more pleasure
than if 1 had the thought of an unfin
ished task before me. I early formed
the habit of doing everything in time,
and it soon became easy to do so. It
is to this I owe mv prosperitv.”
