The Conductor Sold.
BY A BAY STREET DRUMMER.
Some weeks since I was traveling on
the day freight on the A. &G. Rail
road westward. About ten o’clock
am., the train stopped at a small wav
station, and took aboard several pass
engers who were found there await
ing it. None of them attracted my
attention except an old lady, who,
with some difficulty, got aboard the
caach—there was a passenger coach
attached to the train—and came puff
ing and blowing from her exertions
down the aisle to her seat.
«»**«**** * m
The old lady had just got comfort
ably seated when the whistle sounded,
and the train moved off. In a few
moments the conductor came in, and
after collecting the fare of one or two
others who had got aboard at the last
station, approached the old lady.
Your fare, madam, said the conduct
or. •
Old Lady—A little louder, if you
please. I’m sorter deaf.
Conductor—Your fare, madam.
Old Lady—Thankee, sir, you’re
very civil. I was counted pretty fair
when I was young, but I’m old enough
for j ottr grandmother now, and—
Conductor—Your ticket, if you
please madam.
Old Lady—Ticket? bless you, I
did’nt buy one. I thought I could
pass free, as—
Conductor—Have you a pass?
Old little indignant)—No
I hain’t—fcnd what’s more, I don’t
want one. I’m a repectable—•
Conductor*—Then, madam, I must
have the inouey for your passage.
Old Lady-^-Well, but let me tell
you. Im gwine down to see—
Conductor—lt can’t make any dif
ferance to me, madam, who you are
going to see I have my orders and
must obey them. It is a very disa
greeable duty, but I shall be compell
ed to put you off the train at the next
station unless you pay your fare.
Old lady— Well, but you see I or
ter go free. Women as travels on
missions like mine orter go free—and
my daughter’s husband says the same
thing, and he knows, cause he’s been
a mighty traveler, and—
Conductor —-Can’t help it, madam;
must obey orders. You must pay
your fare or get off at the next station.
OldJ^ady—But, mister, I haven’t
got the money.
Conductor—l am very sorry, mad
am, but duty is duty, and—
Old Lady—Well, see here, stranger,
I don’t think you orter put a woman
as travels on the business as I does off.
Its agin human nalur. Besides,’taint
my fault that I’m on your railroad, so
I orter go free. Mine pressin’ busi
nesslike. You see Billy Peeples wife’s
oldest sister Sary sent for me to come
to see her at once and not tarry, ’cause
as how Bhe expects this very night to
have a—
T-o o-o-o o-t, toot, toot, toot’ toot,
toot, toot! went the whistle, and in a
moment the old lady was forgotten.
A dozen windows flew up; as many
heads popped out, and the Conductor,
ever watchful for the safety, as he was
for the way fare and the comfort of his
passengers, rushed to the platform to
see what danger was ahead. The
cause for the alarm, whatever it was,
finally subsided; the heads were drawn
in, windows let down, and the Con
ductor returned to collect his fare from
the old lady. She commences:
Yes, you see. its jest as I tell you.
Billy Pceple’s wife’s eldest sister Sary,
is expecting anv time to have a—
Cond o or— Iha e nothing to do
with these peopie my good woman.
I could not pass you without a ticktt
or the money if you were going to a
funeral.
Old Lady—But ’taint no funeral.
It’s just as different as it can be from
a funeral. I’m gwine to see Billy
Peeple,B wife’s oldest sister, Sary—
Sary Beard’s her name—’cause she’s
been sufferin’ a long time, poor creet
er, and—well, to tell you the real truth
of the matter, this very night she ex
pects to have a—
To-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-t sounded the
whistle for the next station, and the
train moved slower and slower, until
it stopped, and the brakemail announc
ed “Valdosta.”
The conductor approached the old
lady at this point and very kindly told
her that he would have to put her off
here unless she paid her fare.
Old Lady—What place is this ?
Conductor—This is Valdosta.
Old Lady—Wh a-t!
Conductor—This is Valdosta.
Old Lady—Why, my goodness gra
cious! You don’t tell me so! I
didn’t think we were half way there.
If you haifft bin foolin me altv the
time, hain’t yon? This is the very
place whar I was to get off to go and
see Sary Beard. You did pass me
free after all, didii’t you ? Though
CARROLLTON, GEORGIA, FRIDAY MORNING, MARCH 15, 1872.
you orter never fooled me that-a-way.
But it was mighty clever in you to
pass me, sir, so it was. Thankee, sir,
thankee, sir.
And under a torrent of thanks he
helped her off the train.
The Conductor did his best to explain
to the old lady that she was under no
obligations to him, and need not thank
him; but she only grew warmer and
louder in her expressions of thankful
ness to him.
“Indeed, indeed, sir,” said she,
“You have been powerful obliging,
and i shall tell Bill Peeple’s wife’s old
dest sister Sary how good you was to
fetch me down f. ee to see her, and if
it only happens to be a boy, sir, I’ll
make her call it for you, you dear good
man. Oh, you needn’t shake your
head, I’ll do it sure and certain, Mis
ter, and—”
Toot, toot! and off moved the
train.
Old Lady—(Running up to the plat
form and holding up her cotton um
brella) —Stop! stop, mister. What
rnought be your name ?
Conductor—{Hurrying aboard) —
Never mind.
Old Lady—But, you see I want to-
But the train moved rapidly out of
hearing, leaving the old lady looking
after the Conductor with a face beam
ing with kindness and gratitude, and
muttering to herself: “ Well, no mat
ter, Bill Peeples can find out his name,
and if it just happens to be a boy 111
call it for him, certain and sure.”
Education in NeWopaper^.
YVe clip the following from the
Leinster (Ireland) Independent:—
“The majority of persons who sub
scribe to a newspaper regard it in too
narrow a point of view They regard
it as a gossiping visitor who affords
amusement or instruction to them
selves. This it is of course. But it
may fulfill a more important office in
a household. It may become a power
ful auxiliary in the intellectual im
provement of the young. The boy
who reads aloud a good newspaper fur
the elder members of the family, can
not fail to be advanced and elevated
by his occupation. Such an excTciSe
gradually weans him from the ptier
ilities, foliies and toys of childhood. It
will fill his mind with varied, curious,
useful and solid knowledge. It will
educate him unconsciously. It will,
to use a vulgar expression, make a man
of him. This might be demonstrated
by the example of An ricx One < f
the reasons young Americans are so
intelligent, so enterprising, so “ wide
awake” is, that in the r >-.oluod their
mental aliment consia and in a great
degree of newspapers. Schoolboys in
America not only real newspapers,
they sometimes write for them. In
consequence of this, the y oung, keen
eyed American is not only abreast of
contemporary events, but lie project*
his mind into tne fut ire. He makes
the time to come his own. All that
wonderful variety of curious invention
which characterizes A uerica may be
attributed in some decree to the pre
cocity produced by newspaper reading.
It has been often remarked that if
England rules the sea, France or Prus
sia rule the land, the future is the do
minion of America. The newspaper
lards their young, as it were, to
the bright horizon of human knowl
edge, where, like the Arcadians pursu
ing the sun, they stand aloft and coi -
template the effulgence, when, lost to
other eyes, it illuminates the enchant
ed l egions of the untrodden future.—
They do not think of what their coun
try has been, but what it will be.—
They anticipate the time when Ameri
ca will teas populous as China, as mil
itary as Prussia, as marine as England,
as powerful as pagan Rome in the
plentitude of its imperial dominion.—
They not only do this, they endeavor
to make their own country what they
imagine.
The youth of America are, gener
ally speaking, able to discuss the im
portant questions which agitate the
minds of the greatest Statesmen. In
reading the eulogies of eminent men,
which so often occur in the newspa
pers, a spark is sometimes struck, a
flame, kindled a love of fame engen
dered, which animates them through
life to struggle for a prominent posi
tion in society. There is no descrip
tion of literature which excites so
much attention in the old (and conse
quently makes so great an impression
on the young) as a good newspaper.
The pinions of the intellect wax strong
in the perusal, and become capable of
a wide range of profitable excursion
in the world of inquiry. To read a
modern newspaper requires a great
amount of information. Without a
knowledge of geography, for example,
a newspaper is unintelligible. No boy
who understands a newspaper can
grow up a dolt; a mope, a child-man.
He must be capable of conversation
on the greatest subjects of popular dis
cussion. In short the father who re
fuses or fails, for the sake of paltry
expenditure, to introduce a newspaper
into his household, deprives his chil
dren of a great intellectual inheritance.
He inflict* an irreparable injury on his
offspring.
zib ut Railroad Engineering. &c.
We doubt very much if one out of a
hundred of our readers has ever thought
of the wonderful perfection of the en
gineers who could comtrience the
Mount Cents tunnel at opposite sides of
the mountain, and after removing sev
en miles of solid rock, unite in the cen
tre with a variation of only one-tenth
of a foot, T> come nearer home, we
will venture to say that not one in a
thousand of our citizens, who ride
over the Western Itoad to Opelika,
are aware that it required six months
of hard work to locate the tenty-eight
miles between that place and Colum
bus. The interval between Montgom
ery and Selman, on the same road, was
surveyed by five dissent engineers, in
cluding such men as Milner and Gar
land, and yet, with the assistance of
all their notes, it required over four
months for the locating engineer to
arrive at the difinite location. On
the North and South Road, from
Montgomery to DeeatUr, the engineers
had
TEN TEARS OF HARD WORK
before the road was located satisfacto
ry. On our own North and South
Road, the engineer corps has been en
gaged nearly ten months between Co
lumbus and LaGrange, surveying, per
haps, one thousand miles, and still
have about ten ofthe forty-five miles
to locate. We are satisfied that but
few companies allow their engineers
sufficient time. In locating is the op
portunity to save money, and a mis
take made it one to be regretted al
ways.
While on the subject we will give
the organization of the Engineer Corps
of the North and South Road, taken
from a circular just issued by the Com
pany: YV. J Winn, Chief Engineer;
M. L. Wood, Ist Ass’t, in charge of
Location; A. B. Blevins, Transit-man
on Location; S. I). Moore, Levelman
on Location; I). K. Baker, Construc
tion Engineer Columbus Division;
George D. Harris, Construction En
gineer Rome Division; , Con
struction Engineer LaGrange Divis
ion.
As we understand it, a preliminary
or base line is first run to ascertain
whether a route is practical or not. If
adopted, the corps in the field then
proceed to locate, having in view the
reduction of the work and length of
line. Three hundred miles or more
may be run over in locating ten, but it
is soldiin, if * ver, that the company
fails to n>ake money by the operation.
The line once located, the construe
tion engineer takes char- e and “side
slakes,'’ aial * he i the work commenc
es, he exercises a general supervision
over his divisions giving all necessary
directions and information to the con
t a-tors, and taking at intervals esti
mates ol work done. From engin
eering we naturally drift to the ques
tion of railroads and in this connec
tion Will give
THE PRESENT STATUS
of our favorite topic, the North and
South. The timber for trestling has
been delivered at Columbus and Fort
some’s. The grading on the first nine
teen miles would have been completed
weeks ago, but for the wretched weath
er of the past two months. Ten days
of fine weather will finish up ail but
the twentieth mile, wich Jeff Lane &
Co.,’s own force will complete at their
own leisure. The piers at the Mid
berry are fine specimens of masonry
some sixty feet high. They were
completed by R. N. Lee & Cos., who
| are now taking out some rock at Han
cock’s. It is a small job and will end
the rock work and masonry on the first
twenty miles.
At LaGrange the
WORK IS MOVING SOUTHWARD
rapidily despite the terrible weather.
Three contractors are at work, and
others will commence as soon as loca
tion can be secured. Wiley Roberts,
of Troup, shows a most commendable
spirit. He has contracted to work the
eighth mile (from LaGrang). receiving
in payment 10 per cent, in cash, the
rest in stock. Too much praise can
not be given Mayor \V. C. Jarboe for
the energetic manner in which matters
move forward in Troup. He is untir
ing in his efforsts for the interests of
the company, refusing, we are informed
all compensation for his services.
Between Lane. Grant Co.’s con
tract and that of Troup County
Company, there is a
GAP
in Harris county, which as yet has not
been let. The Harris subsciptionsare
payable when the grading reaches
Hamilton. To earn there will require
about ten thousand dollars. Messrs.
Fleming Cos., who graded tenth and
eleventh miles under Lane, proposed,
at a meeting in Hamilton a few days
ago, to carry one-half of amount until
the work was done, if the subscribers
in.. Harris would advance the other
$5,030 on their subscriptions With
out delay the following advances were
proffered: Capt. Win. Johnson, $750;
Judge Henry Kimbrough, $500; R .A.
and S Murphy,ssoo; Joel T. Johnson,
$500; Satn Goodman, S2OO. Judge
Williams. S2OO Other parties are lo
be sedn, and Mr. Fleminig has no
doubt about being able to raise $5,000
or even more, so we may consider
that the work will commence at once
thereby placing the entire distance
from
COLUMBUS TO LAGRANGE
in active course of construction.
Speaking of Hamilton, we are re
minded of a complaint from an old
friend, who jestingly said that the
railroad had taken possession of the
old route to Hamilton, and the peo
ple would be forced to ride on the cars,
whether or’not. He describes the old
road as occupied for miles by mam
moth banks, or lured aside to avoid
heavy cuts, until it would hardly be
recognized by one who knew it a year
ago.
The track laying will commenec
here, the office 's report, by the Ist
prox., when the “H. S. Estes” and
the construction train will come into
play and put things through with a rush.
AT ROME THE WORK COXfIKUES WITH
OUT INTERUPTION,
and the force will be largely increased
as soon as the weather improves suf
ficiently to allow contractors to operate
without loss. An officer of the com
pany informs us that he hopes to see
the grading at Rome followed close
ly with the track, so that Cedar Town
may receive its fall stock by rail.—
Columbns Bun.
Carrying Woik to the North.
A merchant of this place sent in an
account a few days ago made out on a
bill-head which we knew bad not been
printed in Athens. YVe informed
him that we eouid have bought the
goods in New York for which we were
then paying as easily as he got his
printing done there. He said he want
ed to get it as cheap as possible.
replied we could save more in the pur
chase of goods than he could in print
ing, and that if every body should
adopt the policy of sending to New
York for supplies, the merchants’ occu
pation would be gone—that they de
pended on their profits for a support,
and were the last persons on earth
who set the example of bestowing
their patronage on other communities,
that f there was any good in it, we
would all find it out and adopt it, and
they would be compelled to seek a
livelihood at some other business.
lie acknowledged the justness of
our conclusions, and we then inquired
what his bill-heads had cost, and had
the satisfaction of informing him that
we would furnish them at $2 less per
10 )J than he paid for them, while he
admitted that ours were printed in bet
ter style! He then showed us some
cards printed in New Y”ork, which we
found cost him just double what we
would have charged him for them.
These fads will serve to show how
men oven each themselves sometimes
in attempting to get things cheap.—
When 0 man settles down in a com
munity upon whose patronage he is
dependent for success, and sends
abroad for everything he wants, there
is a screw loose, certain. —*Athens
Watchman .
* Luck.
The man who marries the prettiest
girl of the place is said to be a “lucky
fellow,” and so of him who draws the
highest prize in a lottery, or by some
fortunate turn iu affairs, clears the
gulf between want and wealth in an
hour. And yet the histories of all
time tell us that with a terrible uni
formity and certainty the men who
become suddenly possessed of unearn
ed millions die in misery.
Within five years a well-to-do farm
er drew a quarter of million of dollars
it a prize lottery. The whole country
envied him his luck ; but he has since
died from a style of living induced by
his fortune, and his only son has turn
out a drunkard.
The man whose firstbet on the race
course, whose first deal at the card
tabic, whose first risk at faro, whose
maiden lottery ticket brings money
largely into his pocket, is a ruined
man the very instant the world pro
nounces him “ lucky.” Any man,
especially any young man, who starts
in life with the conviction that mon
ey can be better made than by earning
it, is a lost man—lost already to socie
ty, lost to his family, lost to himself.
All alarming large number of the
rich men of New Y"ork are at this mo
ment helpless drunkards.
10“ An old lady gave this as Iter
idea of a great man : “One who is
keerful of his clothes, don’t drink spir
its, kin read the Bible without spelling
the words, and cat a cold dinner on
wash day without grumbling.”
How to Get Along*
Do not *top to tell stories in busi
ness hours.
If you have a place of business, mat
ters. Have order, system, regularity,
promptness.
Do not meddle with business you
know nothing of.
Never buy an article you do not
need, simply because it is cheap, and
the man who sells will take it out in
trade.
Trade is money.
Strive to avoid hard words and per
sonalities.
Do not kick every stone in the path.
More miles ran be made in a day by
going steady on than stopping.
Pay as you go.
A man of honor respects his word
as lie docs his bond.
Aid but never beg
Help others when you can, but nev
er give what you cannot afford to, sim
ply because it is fashionable.
Learn to say “no.”
No necessity of snapping it out dog
ashion, but say it firmly and respect
fully.
Have but few confidants, and the
fewer the better.
Use your own brains rather than
those of others.
Learn to think and act for your
self.
Be vigilant.
Keep ahead rather than behind the
times.
Young men, cut this out, and if
there be folly in the arghmertt, let us
know.
A Good one. —An Atlanta corres
pondent of the Newnan Herald tells
the following good joke on our Kim
ball House.
I learned of rather an amusing inci
dent which occured at the 11. I. Kim
ball House a short time since, which
was perpetrated by a citizen of Cow
eta county, atid which, for ridiculous
ness, is seldom surpassed by the most
notorious wit or humorist. The per
son in question is an original character,
an oddity to all his acquaintances, and
none better capacitated to crack a joke
or enjoy good fare.
He gave his order to a servant for
dinner, which, for variety, was Com
plete. It being the custom of this
house to furnish each article on a sep
arate dish, he soon found himself sur
rounded with numberless small ones,
and afier afew moments of intense en
joyment, spent in rapid masticating,
had emptied each dish of tempting
contents then turning to the servant,
with a nonchalance peculiarly his own,
informed him that he “liked his sam
ples very well, and he might now
bring him his dinner.”
Much of the comfort of this life con
sists in acquaintance, friendship and
correspondence* with those that are pi
ous, piudeut and virtuous.
An exchange wants to know since
w-o-r-k is pronounced wirk, why p-o-r-k
is not pronounced pirk.? These ques
tions are very irksome.
Says an Irshman of Chicago;—
“Shoor there are no people at all in
the most densely populated districts,
and the sidewalks is in the middle of
the streets.”
Some of the domestic evils of drunk
enness are houses without windows;
gardens without fences, fields without
tillage, barns without roofs, children
without djthing, principles or mor
als.
The statement going the rounds of
the press, that John C. Calhoun’s plan
tation in South Carolina is now own
ed by a wealthy negro, is a mistake.
It was purchased by his son-in-law
Col. Clensen.
Some of the domestic evils of drunk
enness are houses without windows,
gardens without fences, fields without
tillage, barns without roofs, children
without clothing, principle* or morals.
Two of Darwin’s sons have been on
a visit to the Yosemite. It is said
that the monkeys recognized them at
once, and asked kindly after their fa
ther.
A Kansas paper chronicle* a pleas
astound not uncommon ceremony in
that State, as follows : “Mr. ,of
Missouri, got to owning horses that
did not belong to him and the next
thing he knew he couldn’t get his feet
down to the ground.
A Kalamzoo grocer swears by all
that is good and true, that he has seen
a rat lie down on his back with an egg
in his paws, wiggle his tail as a sign
that all was ready, and then submit to
be drawn up stairs by the tail by two
other rats.
YY r hen the cold winds blows, take
care of your nose, that it doesn’t get
froze, and wrap up your toes in warm
woolen hose. The above, we suppose,
was written in prose, by someone who
knows the e ffect of cold ‘mow*.
