Tile Model Subscriber. “Good morning sir- Mr. Editor, liow are the folks to day 1 I owe you for next year’s Spectator I thought I’d come and pay. And Jones is agoin’ to take it, and this is his money here; I shut down lendin’ it to him, and then coax ed him to try it a year. And here is a few little items that happened last week in our town, 1 thought they 'd look good for the paper, and so I just jotted ’em down. And he-e is a basket of cherries my wife pick ed expressly for you; And a small bunch of flowers from Jennie bhe thought she must send something too. You’re doing the politics bnllv, as all of out family agree ; Just keep your old goose quill a fiappin,’and give ’em a good one for me. And now you are chuck full of business, and I won’t be taking your time. I’ve things of my own I mvisi tend to—good dav, sir. a will cli',nb.” lb© Editor sat in his sanctum and brought down his flst with a thump, ‘‘God bless that old farmer” he muttered, lie’s a regular jolly old trump,” And tis thus with our noble profession, and thus it will ever be still; there are some who appreciate its labor, and some who perhaps never will, But in the great time that is coming when Gabriel’s trumpet sound, And they who have labored and rested shall coiqe from the quivering ground, W hen they who have striven and suffered to teach and ennoble the race, feliall march at the front of the column each one in his God given place, As they march through the gates of The G'itv, with proud and victorious tread, The editor and his asjuxtaois wilt not travel fur from the head. The Follies of Riches. Why do men squander the few days allotted them on earth in gathering the goods of this wcqjfl, to the exolu sion of nobler achievements and high er enjoyments. Certainly, happiness does not consist exclusively, if at all, in the pursuit and enjoyment ot rich es ; on the contrary, the acquisition of wealth has broken the hearts of millions, dwarfed the moral sensibili ties, hindered the tide of progress, dried up the fountains of humanity, and prostrated industrial pursuits. It is asserted by philosophers who have studied human nature, and watched the tide of human events, that the possession of wealth slackens virtue, encumbers the time of wise men, breeds new wants, increases our cares, multiplies our miseries, prostrates the energies of the young, and unfits them for the active duties of life. When, at last, wealth has been ac quired, and we have engaged in the vanities of life until the fitful dream of life is over, then, we return to the dust and our children inherit our land, brick, and stones, and gold, to repeat the drama of life in which we were successful. However careful or self denying our children, the inheritance may be destroyed in a moment, and then their solt white hands would hud it difficult to earn a competency.- While we admit that it is the duty of all to engage in some honest employ ment, and thereby secure the actual necessities of life, we deny that na tions, or individuals have increased their happiness or usefulness by in creasing wealth beyond their wants. “ Man wants but little here below, Nor wants that little long-” If we study tlie history of nations and individuals we will find that all the great improvements by which the world has been benefited, originated in poverty. So with educators and authors. Burns sung his sweetest and wildest notes between the plow handles, and Shakespeare stamped his genius upon tablets of immortality amid pov erty and want. Tasso wrote his “Je rusalem Lost ” in the depths of penu ry and some of his sweetest verses were thrown to Leonora through the gates of his prison. Thp “Pilgrim’s progress” which has cheered the hearts of thousands, was written in a dungeon. Milton, on account of his obscurity could scarcely sell his manu script of “Paradise Lost ” for a sum sufficient to pay for a month’s board. Ropve before hoi* soldiery and states men were corrupted and enervated by gold acquired by conquest, was invin cible, but when she subdued the sur rounding nations, and gathered up the gold and costly raiments ol the van quisled, she fell, and her proud eagles trailed in the dust forever. Egypt, Greece; and other nations of antiquity shared a like fate from the same cause. The ruins of Carthage, Palmy ra, and other cities point unerringly to the fact that their * destruction is chnrgable to the attainment of wealth and influence among the nations.— Gold was the God they worshipped, and when enervated by luxury, they became insensible to danger. Proud qf their exalted position and vast at tainments, they were careless of the means of self defense and were de stroyed. The King of Babylon, when feeling almost secure amidst this vast dominions wealth, and the idolatrous CARROLLTON, GEORGIA, FRIDAY MORNING, APRIL 26, 1872. adorations of his subjects, saw the hand-writiting upon the Avail and his Kingdom, gold and silver passed into other hands. W e concede that wealth secures the applause of the world and attaches to its posessors many subservient follow ers, but it produces no genuine friend ship or real happiness. But take the honest, industrious poor man who pos sess mind, soul, and energy, and his joys are roses “ borne on Ileclas brow.” He has health, freedom, inno cence and pea-e. He mocks the pa geantry and pomp begotten by wealth and lives happily in a little world of his own. Poverty is his boasted wealth, and bis friends, though few. are sincere and lasting ; they do not forsake him in the hour of danger, nor cut his acqaintauce in adversity. His sleep is sound, and no frightful vis ions of departed friends, wasted for tunes or lost honors, disturb bis re pose. He realizes the truth that “ From labor, health, from health content ment springs.” And he pursues his daily avocations with pleasure,—content with his posi tion, he sings amidst his toils and la bor. “ Let us all be up and doing, With a heart for any fate, Still achieving, still pursuing, Learn to labor and to wait.” And finally, when he “sleeps the sleep that knows no waking” his soul Lasses into an atmosphere where “ moth nor rust doth corrupt, nor thieves break through and steal.”— But where the man whose God was gold, when summoned to appear be fore the Grand Asises above there ? Let Dives and Lazarus answer,— Griffin Middle Georgian. Ten Cents Reward is offered for that garrulous old gossiper known and distinguished, m every communi ty throughout this broad land, as “ They Say.” His adherents are more numerous than ever leaves were in Valambrossa, and his rumors fly thicker and faster than winged ants on an indian-summer day. If he is not omnipresent, he certainly has the pow er of being present in many places at the same time. If he is not inspired, with the prophetic ken of an Isaiah or Jeremiah, lie certainly foresees many events which come to pass. If he is not omniscient he certainly knows a great deal more than most of folks. He sees all things that transpire, and man) which never do. He presumes to know eveybody and to be acquaint ed with everybody’s business. His sayings are repeated at all places of public gatherings, in confidential in terviews, around the social hearthstone, and in private circles. He is by far a more popular author and oftener quo ted than Byron, Shakspeare, or any other writer whose sayings are record ed in history. He was never known to be cornered, but always manages to elude the grasp of Ids pursuers.— He is evidently a very extraordinary genius, and we want to see a character so intimately known in every commu nity and yet never seen by mortal eye, and whose footprints are so often seen tut whose carcass has never been overtaken.— Cartersville Exqiress. Beauties Laugh.— What is more bewitching than the laugh of a beauti iul, sweet tempered woman. It comes bubbling up from the deep springs of the heart in clear sparkling flute like notes, and rippling through and over the ruby parted lips, like a sweet flowing rill, so that the hearts that hear it feel the exilerating influence and acknowledge its magic spell. Talk about the ambrosial nectar which the gods delighted to quaff, it can hold no comparison with the sil ver laugh of a beautiful woman. Did you ever attempt to catch in frolics in nocent chase the girl whose beauty had oit made your heart to flutter, and as she gracefully, and swan-like slip ped your grasp, sent back upon your ear one of those flute like laughs that rippled by you like flowing rill Sometimes iu the midst of trial and borne down by heavy sorrow, when your heart has felt strangely sad, some wandering, far off strain of music has suddenly awakened the memories of the past, and you paused in jvrapt ex pectation of beholding that bright vision of beauty pass by and greet you again with that magic laughter of by gone years. A Cincinnati woman lately bailed her husband out of the station house where too much indulgence in the flow ing bowl had sent him—with the pro ceeds of her hair, which was unusally long and beautiful He, on hi£ pait. grieved so much at his faithful wife surrending her chief beauty for bis sake, that he procured a divorce, and is expected to marry another woman at an early day. —— » And editor out West say3 if time is money he is willing to ex change a little of his for cash. A Mistaken Idea. The man who expects to be success ful in any kind of business these day without advertising, is bound to be wofully disappointed. To see who does the business of any city you have but to take up a paper and see the names of those who keep themselves most prominently and persistently be before thepublic. —Columbus Enquir er. There is nothing truer than the above, and we appeal to the facts of every day’s business, in this city, to prove it. The men who advertise have the trade, and they will keep itas long as they persist in liberal adver tising. Sticking up cracker-box tops about the streets, and through the country, with grotesquely printed announce ments that such articles can be founds at John Jones’store, is a mistake.— That style of advertising very proper ly inspires disgust and contempt in the minds of all sensible men, and they carefully avoid John Jones’ store. Experience has demonstrated the fact that the Weekly country News paper is the best medium for advertis ing. It is local, and its country sub scribers have each issue before them morning uoon and night, for a whole week, and they must necessarily go through and through their paper more than once. The result is they be come familiar with all the advertise ments and come to know intimately the very faces and character of the advertisers. Who of our country sub scribers does not feel as if W. A. Huff is an old and familiar acquaintance ? And who does not know that he is a liberal dealer and always able and willing to fill orders at the very low est market prices. Who of them is unacquainted with Mercer & Smith, S. Mayer A Cos., L. E. & 11. E Welch, Strozer, & Ilils man, or S, W. Fleishman A Cos. A subscriber wants his paper sus tained, and he knows that it cannot live without advertising patronage and hence he comes to regard the ad vertiser as a sort of copartner in a joint stock company and naturally prefers to trade with him. W e write this article in no spirit of complaint against non-advertisers, but by way of giving them the philosphy of advertising, and opening their eyes to their own best interest. —Albany Met vs. Newspaper Work. A recent writer pointedly and truth fully remarks that journalism is the on ly profession which is denied the privilege of privacy. The lawyer, doctor and preacher do their work in private, and no weighty personal re sposibility attaches to them on ac count ot it. But the journalist is a mark for the public eye, and his every movement is as the course of the Sun. Moreover, the w'ork of the press is continuous as well as constantly pub lic. There is no rest for the weary. Space is no more annihilated by telegraph thau by journalism. The evening and morning are not merely the first day but all the seven. Night is ahnihilated as to all its quantities of repose. Every minute of every hour of the twenty four is occupied by some workers doing some work that shows itself in the news paper of the day and afternoon. Repetition is as impossible as rest. Facts are ever new. Comments must be as fresh as facts, and the edition is the remorse less giant that eats up all the seconds. The making of a newspaper is perpet ual motion iu a thousand fields. In such a work demanding ceaseless es forts, permitting no pause, exacting eternal and every varying exercises, it is imposible for wheat to be unmixed with chaff, for accuracy not to be im paired by mistake, for injustice not occasionally to he done. We Fade. —We extract the follow ing beautiful and truthful illustration from an exchange: “ As the trials of life thicken, and the dreams of other days hide one by one in the deep vista of disappointed hope, the heart grows weary of the struggle, and we begin to realize our insignificance Those who have <1 mb ed to the pinnacle of fame or revel iu luxury and wealth, go to the grave with the poor mendicant who begs by the wayside, and like him are soon forgotten. Generation after genera tion, says an eloquent writer, have felt as we feel, and their fellows were as active in life as ours are now. They passed away as a vapor, while Nature wore the same aspects of beauty as when the Creator command ed her to be. And so it. shall be when we are gone. The world will have the same attraction for offsprings yet unbora that it had once for our selves and that it lias now for our chib ! dree.” Industry. Man’s existence, health and longev ity, require labor. lie is formed with brain to contrive and hands to work with a view to promote his comfort and happiness. He was not to be an idler even in the Garden of Eden.— The command is upon him that he must gain his bread by labor. Asa man generally does well what he loves to do, he ought to cultivate a love for his calling and be content with noth- ing short of excellence. He ought not to allow himself to be constantly under whip amUppur, but catch some of life’s rationalenjoyment as he pass es along. Happiness is often best enjoyed bv contrast. Rest after toil is sweet; the demands of hunger are best satisfied by plain food, and thirst by pure water. After disease has pass ed away, how much health isapprecia ted! After being tossed upon the ocean for weeks, how cheerful is the joyful cry of land, and the smoke curl ing from the chimney-tops, and above all the cheerful countenances of friends hailing us from the shore ! Labor, therefore, and useful toil confer joy unknown to those who “strain their low thoughts to form unreal wants,” and think it a hardship to struggle in the busy hive of life. Industry has made the wilderness bud and blossom like the rose. How inspiring it is to see men employed in the various departments of productive labor, whether of the hands or brain, all promotive of prosperity and civili zation. The welfare of the land is then assured, and man nobly fills the sphere for which he was intended by the Creator. The sun bronzed face, the hard hands and rustic coat of the honest laborer should be held in the highest estimation. He is worth more than the haughty aristocrat; he belongs to the nobility of labor. He is a creator of wealth, and stands at the founda tion of all civilized Society. Industry has been honored in all time. At the late celebration on the recovery of the prince of Wales from serious sickness, Victoria, England’s best Queen, reserved fifty seats in the great cathedral for working men to testify her regard for labor. The working men of this country have for the first time nominated one of their own class to represent them, and thus promote industry and true enhghen ment. When a man seeks an occupation as every one should do, he ought to resolve to earn a living. Now there are only three known ways by which any one can gain a livelihood—one is by work, another by begging, and an other by stealing. It depends a good deal upon his taste, which of these occupations he will select. Os couise we leave out of our calculations those who are not able to work, and yet scorn to beg or steal. These of course must live upon the labor of others, and properly so. This matter being under stood, then, the conclusion is, if a man being able'does not work, he is either begging or stealing. If he is living upon past accumulation, however he is exempt from the charge. The work must be honest and bring no in - jury to the neighbor; it must be pro ductive or creative. You may shut up five gamblers in a room for a month each with one hundred dollars and let them gamble away with each other all the time, is anythig gained ? They have still among them only five hundred dollars diminished by the price of board, the wear and tear of clothing, and ruin of character. This is sporting with a rush and totally un productive. A carpenter takes a per tion of lumber worth a dollar, and makes it into a table or desk worth ten dollars, he has added to the value of the timber nine dollars. His indus try is productive and brings no sting of conscience. So of all honest labor. It ought therefore to be honored and rewarded as that which promotes the wealth, the comfort and happiness of the nation, as well as its true glory.— Griffin Middle Georgian. Wife, Lady, Mistress. —Who mar l ies for love takes a wife, who marries forfort une takes a mistress, who mar riesfor position takes a lady. You are loved by your wife, regarded by your mistress, tolerated by your lady. You have a wife for yourself, a mistress for* your house and friends, a lady for the world and society. Your wife will agree with you, your mistress will rule you, your lady will manage you. Your wife will take care of your household, your mistress of your house, your lady appearances. If you are sick your wife nurses you, your lady' will inquire af ter your health. You take a walk with your wife, a ride with your, mis tress, and go to the party with your lady. Your wife will share your grief, your mistress your money, your lady your debts. If you are dead, your wife will weep, your mistress la ment, and your lady wear mourning. will ycu have ? The Memorial. The people cannot fail to be inter ested in the grand Morse Memorial that is proprosed for next Tuesday evening. The idea upon which this demonstration appears to be based, is to hold meetings simultaneously, in every city and town of the United Suites, to express esteem for one of the greatest masters of the world’s art and sciences, and sorrow for his loss. Arrangements are also being made to have these meetings extend to other continents—in fact, to every country reached by the telegraph. All these meetings will be in tel egraphic communication with theeen tral meeting to be held in the hall of the House of Representatives, at Washington. The Western Union Telegraph Company allows a free use of its wires for that night. Certainly this promises to be a most beautiful and appropriate ttib ute to genius, and most worthily be stowed. No man was ever more de serving of such honor than Professor Morse, for no man ever conferred a greater benefit upon his race. In the whole list of man’s inven tions there is not one so wonderful as the telegraph, and to Morse belongs the sole credit of its origination and perfection. He lived to see the art carried to the farthest reach of im provment—to see it making a com mon people of almost all the nations of the world. He, who, in 1843, was pleading with Congress for a beggar ly sum with which to prove to the world how great an invention he had made, and pleading almost in vain, in 1871, only 28 years later, was manipulating that same original in strument and sending a message of congratulation over hundreds of thou sands of miles of wire, and to thou sands of telegraph offices, llis geni us bore perfect fruit during his life_ time. No man was ever so universally honored while living, and no man more deserved to be honored when dead. —Atlanta Sun. 111-Mannered Young Men. Olive Logan 1 > hard when she does hit. In treating of the follies and foibles of modem society, her pen has a refreshing sharpness, and generally pierces to the quick. In her lecture on “Youg Men,” she paints the fol lowing graphic picture of the numer ous ill-manered young men at present afficting society . The ill-manered young man may be one of llie best hearted and best ed ucated young men in the world. He may be able to construe Sanscrit, and repeat the Iliad of Ilomer in the orig inal Greek ; he may be virtuous as Caesar’s wife, and his moral principles may be as sound as those of the Young Men,s Christian Association, (laugh ter); he may be a member of that ex cellent organization, and to that ex tent a very nice young man indeed, but he will offend well-bred people as grossly as if lie were to go to a tea party in a state of beer. It is not agreeable to sit at the table with a young man who eats as though he had only twenty minutes for dinner, aud as if a perpetual train was awaiting him; who stretches across the table to harpoon a potato with his fork, and chew his food with a noise like a four footed animal; and finally tips his chair back on its hind legs, and picks his teeth with his pocket knife. lie is always making noises, this young man ; always restless, fidgetty, slouchy uneasy, undignified. He chews tobac co, and chewing tobacco, is a dirty habit. In a certain town there is a society composed of girls, whose con stitution and by-laws are as follows ; “We will never kiss any young man who chews tobacco.” The tobacco trade of that town was ruined. The Longest Bridge in the World. —The Tensas and Mobile bridge, or bridges, on the Mobile and Montgomery railroad extends from Tensas station on the M. and M. road, to the city of Mobile, a distance of fifteen miles, crossing both Mobile and Tensas rivers and including ten draws, one for each of the navigable channels into which the rivers are divided.— The bridge itself is constructed of wood, but its pillars or supports are iron cylinders which rest on a solid surface of wooden piles driven down evenly with the bottom cf the stream, and the mud of intervening morasses. It has been three years in the course of construction at a cost of about sl,- 500,000, and, now, that it has been successfully completed it is perhaps the longest structure on the globe.— It shortens the distance from Mont gomery to Mobile by about twelve miles of travel and three hours of time aud secures a continuous route of railroad between Montgomery and £iew Qrleans, Carroll Masonic Institute.
