A rather amusing story is in circu lation at tlu* expense of the eminent gentleman fron#Massaclmsetts, com monly called “ Old Strabismus.” At , ihc President’s levee the other night, which was densely crowded, an old la dy from the interior somewhere, in a tainting condition, requested her hus band to get her an ice. “Cant be did,” responded “hub,” in some irritation; “there ain’t no re freshments here.” “Don’t believe it. .Didn’t we get plenty at Belki-ap’s the other night V’ the good woman said angrily; “now go and get me an ice and some lem onade.” “ I toil you now don’t be a fool; th^re ain’t no refreshments; everybody says so,” grunted the lord and master. “ You are quite mistaken, sir,” said the lion. S. S. Cox, who happened to be near, and who never loses an op portunity to put in a joke. “The Pres ident always provides substantially. The e is his butler, whose business is to show ladies to the supper room,” and the 11011. little jester pointed to Gen. Butler. “You'llliind him a lit tle stuck up and cross, but you must not mind that; tell him to get you ter rapins, ice cream, lemonade, or what ever you want, with a silver spoon to stir t with.” Tnis was said so gravely that the two -ti uggled through the crowd to where General Battler stood talking to some ladies. N “ 1 say, mister, I am told you are the butler,” said the man. “ I’m Gen. Butler,” replied Old Stra isiuus, pleasantly, thinking the two some country people filled with adm ration of his greatness. “1 don’t care whether you are a general butler or not, but my wile wants some terrapins and lemonade, with a silver spoon.” “Sir?” snorted old B. in amaze ment and disgust. “Oh ! don’t take on airs, old cock. Come now, hurry up those terrapins. “ Von must he drunk, sir ! you must bed unk ?” Vo he a ; n’t,,’ screamed the wife. “ H >’s a Good Templar; he ain’t drunk, but I g ss you are.” Roar of laughter greeted this, in which S. S. Cox was forced to join. Gen. Butler reddened in the face, and tegan puffing his checks out in the nost violent manner. . “I don't understand this extraordi nary conduct. "What do you want, ~, —what do you want ?” “Terrapins, 1 tell you.” “What do you take me for, you •ussed fool ?” roared Benjamin. “ You call me a cussed fool, and I’ll it you on the snout," screamed the .man At this juncture an officer of police seized the belligerent husband and led him away amid much laughter. But. ler, turning suddenly, saw the mischief maker. “ I say, Cox, did you do that? ” “ Well, I owe terrapins, and I’ll pay you, mind that—l’ll pay you.” And the two v all ed lovingly away. Southr.u.> airless Company have, until now, unintentionally omit ted to notice the fact Shut''his C >mps ly has recently made very h; ge re suctions in rates of transportation, upon light packages.

CARROLLTON, GEORGIA, FRIDAY MORNING, MARCH 29, 1872. Pityish Kfysery- iSpccikiag and Recitar tion bay. A western writer thus vividly por trays the miseries of a country school boy : What ,a stillness prevailed iu the (•hi school-room when the “master” announced, before dismissing school that “on next Friday afternoon there will be no recitations, but after bear ing, the reading lewbfts evety voting lady will read an original composition, and every young man wjll commit a | piece to memory, of poetry or prose, which he will speak from this stand, and those who fail to do either will be punished.” How the perspiration*started on the brows of the timid ones as the solemn speech was made. Even the bov who had put his mittens on under the desk, and placed one foot out in the aisle, ready to “ go” at the word, “ School is dismissed,” pulled off his mittens ami began searching for a book to take home “to learn something out of,” Jthd whispered profanity—such as “darn it,” “confound the luck,’’ came up from behind tlie desks, and all felt as if there was to be an eclipse, and no glass had been smoked, except the one smart chap who had “rather speak than not,” and the girls who had big sisters at boarding-schools, whose previously literary efforts at home; affoided rare chances for plagiar ism, which by a little help would de ceive the teacher. At last the anxiously awaited day arrives ; the forenoon is passed in the usual manner, but at noon there is a decided change made in the appear ance of the scholars and school-room. The ‘big girls’ are “dressed up” for the occasion Their gowns are of finer texure than those worn during the week; some are adorned with their mother’s “breastpin”atid “prize” ear-rings ; white stockings take the place of the “literary blue ” or black ones, which would not look so well on the platform (for there were no dresses en t rain in those days); nearly all wore “ beau-catchers” plastered on the side of their foreheads, and ciiarcoa 1 had been used as a dentifrice daring the intermission between fore and af ternoon. The little barefooted girls appeared in bright, copper toed shoes and tape embroidered pantalettes of the Nan keen style. With the boys there was also an attempt at improved toilet— boots had been greased, paper collars turned, and a portion of their ? Sun day-go-to-nieetiu' clothes ” donned for ; the occasion ; shocky heads of hair hud been combed into partial subjec tion, and the boy with chapped hands had soaked his knuckles in bran and water until portions of the original cuticle were visible. The “doctors son ” exhaled a powerful aroma, all his father’s flavoring Essences; and the “ tavern keeper’s ’’ had annointed himself with “ Jamaica” as a substitute for bay rum. The “ master,” to main tain a dignity equal to the occasion, had also exchanged his everyday coat for a swinging tail” of fabulous length and shiny in spots as a duck’s wing.— bell rings—reading lessons are heard, the books put away, the speaking platform cleared for work, and the show opens. “Samuel Snubnose ! ’ calls the teach er ; and “ Samuel,” with a parting glance at ids hooks, stumbles along toward the stand, where he becomes the target of a hundred eyes, and his face the color of a turkey gohler’s wat tles. A bow, such as he would have made if a brick had struck him at the instant in the hack of the head, and he essays to speak: “ The curfew lolls the knell of parting day, Tb* lowing (pause) heads wind slowly <'’ei the lea, The— he—(prompter) "ploughman’—ploughman leaves the weary way And plod*- the dark to worldnees and to me Save, from ihe yonder ivv-mantled tower The mov ng muon doth to the owl complain (snick ering) Save (te he he) where the beetle wheels hie best right boweT And drowsy (inklings lull her distant reign. ’ The teacher raps on the desk and says: “Samuel no levity ; ” and Sam uel, who has forgotten pretty much all his “elegy,” concludes as follows : "• lkre rests his (ha ha) head (mort, vpon the lap of yearta, A youth to (prolonged snickerlunknown, Melancholy marked him at his birth,J And science frowned on him for her own.” Sam goes to his seat and holds his nose to keep from laughing out loud, while at a nod from the master, ‘Lu cinda Wirth’ trips,all smiles and blush es, to the platform, and, after “kurtesy ing,” proceeds to read in an inaudible voice something about “be kind to thy fa f ko".” The teacher says ’’louder.” | and we, catch a few words: You: 1 fath er loves you, and has been at a g:e: « j expense a bringing you up, so you ! should obey him and not ,” here ensues a jumble of sounds which no i one can interpret, which cease, and af ter folding the composition “Lucinda 1 ’ ! lays it on the teacher’s table forinspec tiou, “kurtseys” and goes to herseat “Geovge Francis Sprain,” says the— teacher, and z rprsice- looking char. whosojiair is gooso-oiled into curliness steps boldly to the front. Ofebrge likes 1 this business—he is going to make a lawyer—and in shrill voica he com menees :—“Not many generations ago where you sit encircled by all that em bellishes civilized life, the wild fox nodded in the wind, and the thistle dug his hole unskeared”—and so he goes on, transposing a sentence occa sionally, but, maiidy right, and with a firm voiee to the end. Wji have seen George since hear ivelat man’s e tate; he now stands in the Police Court and defends “drunks’ for fitly cents, a case win or lose, and ias acquired such a reputation that a judge always comes down harder on nis clients than any others. Miss Elizabeth Brandreth steps for ward, and in a Susan B. Anthony style reads a hifalutin, and ‘.scription of coun try lite—how “in the spring, when meadow larks are warbling, and gee e quaking, she loves to go out into the fields and cull butter-cups, and sec the little lambkins ga üboling on the green grassy banks (g en faro-banks her brother said she meant), and then re turn back to bom > again once more and help her mother stuff sau.ages, for if we are not kind to our parents the sassenger meat will spile,’’ and really we have forgotton the rest of Elizabeth’s composition. Then “Charles Bashful” starts for the stand, accelerated in his motion by a pin-thrust as he left the seat. — He bows, ands eing a boy making faces, commences to snicker until the teacher comes up by his side and raps his head with the ferule. This causes more mirth, then m ire raps, until he forgets his piece, and is locked up in the wood-box in disgrace. The minister’s s m, “Melville Winter blossom,” is the i called to show the scholars how a go< dboy should speak. Melville looks as solemn as a vinegar jug; his “piece” has been selected by his parents principally for its moral tone. He says: “I do most earnestly wish I could induce all youthful individuals to di vest religion of its gloomy and repul sive associations ; but, mv lords, I ask no respit4* from death ; lam ready to die for mv count!y. and sink or swim, revive and perish, I am for the- Union one and inseparable. My lords, were I an American, as I am an English man”—here the teacher, who has been trying to find th * original rs the ora tor’s remarks, stops the medley, and Melville takes .in scab He fad been crammed with so many pieces that he had not been able to distinguish be tween them, and thus defeated his pa rents aims. But why continue this sub jeot ? The good little girls recited “Ma ry's Lamb” verr nicely, and the good little boy” spoke hi - anil-tobacco piece as follows: “ I’ll never clie’.v tobacco—no, Said liUtle Rober! R and: I’ll never put it in my month, It is a filthy *ed.” By the way, saw this good boy a few day’s ag >: he now chews plug tobacco like a h orse, and smokes a clay pipe night and day. But it would be such a consola iou to us now to know what has become of the lest of that tribe of district school orators who “Spoke their pieces” near a score of years ago. Ikon for the North and South.— Col. John Iverson, of Columbus, who carried a risk upon the iron and fa-ten ings for the North and South Railroad, was notified a few days ago of the safe arrival of the same at Charleston. \Ye suppose that, in a wdek or so, the iron will lie in the process of being laid, and will be pushed forward with all posible energy. Seven months ago this company was organized, and al ready twenty miles of the Bond has been graded, and tract laying will soon begin. We arc glad to learn further that negotiations are being effected for the means to push forward the work as rapidly as possible. Fresi pont MoDoug dd and Secretary Chip ley deserve the thanks of the friends of the enterprise for their caution, good management and indomitable energy. They are the right men in the right place.— La Grange llcpor ter . Ho-vy to avoid a Fatal Mistake.- Dr. A. T. W. Lytle having seen a no tice in the Gainsville Eagle, of the death of a lady in Tennessee, from morphine taken by mistake for quinine, writes to that paper as follows : These two drugs are very much ahke in appearance, but morphine will dissolve in water and form n clear solution ; quinine will not all dissolve but forms a clouded appearance iu water. If people knew this, and were to take these drugs in this way, there need be no more deaths from the effects of morphine, a3 every one could test themselves, and not depend too much on druggists. Wanted—A Generation ct Work ingman, The annihilation of our system cf labor, says the Norfolk Virginian, ren ders it imperatively necessary for ns to resdrt to severe economies. We , must alter the style of onr dwelling to accord with our changed c -ndilion and tbo circumstances which surround us. Especially will our kitchens have ;to be provid and with “all the modern improvements,” and sd located nstobe under the immediate supervision of the mistress of the house. The fann er will find ij. to his advantage to avail himself more than ever before of labor saving machines. And so on through ! ! j every department of life; whatever will economize time and labor must be ; studied and adopted by our people as far as practic ible. The youth of the State must be reared with a full knowledge of the value of a manly self-reliance and | shou and lie taught to work for thefn ! selves. When we cease to entertain extravagant and erroneous ideas of the social dignity of idleness, then, and] not till then, will we begin to build up ] our waste places, as the trite phrase runs. This age looks more and more | every day at results, and although the ' war has left us impoverished, although we are oppress* and with debt and taxa tion, and struggle under a most iniqui tous Constitution, still we have re sources within ourselves which a race 1 of busy workmen can develop, and ] that, too, with the certainty ot accu mulating wealth and power. Tims theory is not at all incompatible with sound education for our boys in the ordinary meaning of the term. They can be students of books, and work also at the plow, or forge; with axe ami hammer; and a recognition ot the circumstances by which we are sur rounded teaches every thoughtful par ent in the Statethaf the next generation to be successful, must be able to work with their hands as well as their heads. •‘Silf-'lab Ujn ” —The Secret of Success. Horace Greely, in a recant disquisi tion on ‘‘•Learning Without Teachers, or S -‘lf-Made Men,” advises the “ youth lacking money, and ambitions for knowledge not to go to college and run in debt to yi&y his way, but to lol low a trade and study in his spare hours. This does not suit the medio cre literati who, having spent their ; line in acquiring all the living and dead languages, find at lust the appli cation of this education will not, in the “ struggle for life,” net them much m -re than what is l eaped by the aver age laooror, without the so-called po lite education. It is a fallacy that to become scion title the youth must first master ail the languages, dead and living. In fact, so far asagriculture is concerned, the student may acquire a practical know! . dge of so much as relates to this art without a thorough knowldge to the dead languages at all. lie may acquire the technical terms as he goes along, and the student in science, we think, in such institutions for instance as the Sheffield Scientific School at New Haven, and perhaps the Poly technic School at Troy, may support himself or nearly so by honorable in dustry during his course. There is a great deal of buncombe in the laudation of “ self-made ” men. Asa rule they have become celebrated from their innate talents, and in spite of the difficulties experienced in self education the better—if only that ed ucation is tempered by practical art and practical science. This is the tal isman to success in “these times,’ and has always made such men as Galileo, Newton and Agassiz, in science, and the host of thinkers and workers in every department of technical art. That greater progress has not been made in agricultural science is due to the Pact that it has been treated from the old educational stand-pont. But progress is being made in this direc tion, and we must be content to wait. The next ten years will show such ad ! vance in this direction as will astonish | the world. We are yet only on the thres ! hold of agricultural science. We are yet to find that the laws underlying the most successful prosecution of this industry are as simple as they are beau tiful. We must work and wait.— : Western Young America will read with disgust information that the Crown Prince of Germany is a printer, and nis s* n ilenry has j ..ot l ecu appren ticed to a book-binder. This sort of thing is due to an old custom follow ed by the Prussian royal family, and might well be followed by all of our sovereign families. But they’ll not dc it. —o» «» i ...

Candler and his Investigating Committee, a number of attachments were issued against the men who, up on investigation, have been found to have shaied in the State Rond moneys The aggregate runs to over OJY and the attachments touch the, pillowing parties: Sch ti Id Holing Mill £57.030 This is for iron. Foster Blodgett nearly $63.00). — This is exclusive of the $20,033 cov ered by his bond. Included in this item is sl6, J 33 collected from the Post Ofiiee Department and never ac eounttd for. The items are various. Blodgett has been writing back to be permitted to return without arrest. N. P. Ilutckiss $14.03 ). This is exclusive of $20,03J covered by his bond. It includes all sorts of comical items, from horses to coal. One item of SS7S is tor use cf si eping car; an other of SSJ is for whisky; $18) for a horse. Varney A. Gaskiil $15,033. Os this $8,533 is the Dobbins money, retain big fees ; sl3) for trip to Savannah, making speeches so»- Green Line, etc. James Mullens $8,03). Tins includes domestic items of house-fencing, double pay, etc. A L. Harris $3,033. Switches, not for thrashing children, are included here. John Rice, proprietor of New Era, $25,0 )3. This is the amount of State’s money used to .buy the Era from Dr. Bard. I. P. Harris $19,-333. There is no attachment here as the bond of $13),- covers the amount The use to which the State Road money was put were odd and various Buying newspapers, importing race lioises, running turf exchanges, buil ding houses, junketing, etc, etc. Veri ly we shall never see the like of these Radical jokers again. From Blodgett, and Bullock down, they constitute the most inimitable band of festive yet practical plunderers that the world ev er saw.—Atlanta Constitution , lfinst. Sketches of D .via and Parker. Judge Davis was born in Cecil county, Md., on March 9th, 1313. He graduated at Kenyon College,— Ohio, in 1332, and subsequently studied law in Massachusetts, and also at the School iu New Haven, Connecticut.- Removing to Illinois in 1833, he was ad i.itted to the bar, and soon after settled at Bloomington, in the practice of his profession. He was at one time a conservative Henry Clay whig. In 1344 he was elected judge of the eighth judicial district ol the rotate. In 1353 and again in 1861, he was reelected tr this position. He had long been an intimate personal friend of Mr Lin coln, and as a delegate to the Chicago Convention of 186 J, had a large share in securing his nomination for the Presidency. The two had been thrown much together by the practice of their profession in a thinly populated coun try, and the intimacy between them was of the closest and most confiden tial character. Ju>t as Judge Davis was entering upon his third term as circuit judge in Illinois, he was, in 1862, appointed by Mr. Lincoln to the position of As sociate Judge of the Supreme Court of the United States, which position he still holds. Mr. Lincoln also ap pointed him his executor, and the estate of the president was wound up by Judge Davis. At the time of the latter’s appointment to the Supreme Bench he was an avowed Republican but of late years his tendencies have been decidedly conservative, and there was considerable talk of his being an available candidate for the Presidency on the D -mocratic ticket. Ilis course on the legal-tender cases, however— he voted with the majority in May of last year, holding the legal-tender act to be constitutional—lias served to estrange him from the Democracy, although he has frequently been men tioned during the past few months as a possible Republican candidate who would receive the support of the “pas- I sive policy” Democrats againstGener !al Grant. Judge Davis is a man of i large fortune, and personally is above ! reproach. But lie has never been re | garded as a jurist of commanding ability. GOVERNOR JOEL PARKER.
