ABOUT PRINTERS'
I wish I was a printer,
I really do, indeed.
It seems to me the printers
Get everything they need—
(Except money.)
They get the hugest and the best
Os everything that grows,
Cet free into circusses
And other kinds of shows—
(By giving an equivalent.)
The biggest bug will speak to them
No matter how they dress ;
' A shabby coat is nothing
If they own a printing press—
(Policy.)
At ladies' fairs 'they’re almost hugged
By pretty girls you know ; >
r I hat they will crack up everything
That ladies have to show
(Bully.)
And thus they get a blow-out free
At every party feed ;
And the reason is because they write
An d other people read.
(That’s what’s the matter.)
What to do when you are in
Trouble.
Don’t try to quench your sorrow
in rum or narcotics. If you begin this,
you must keep right on with it, till it
leads you to ruin ; or if you try to
pause, you must add physical pain and
consciousness of degredation to the
sorrow you seek to escape. Os wretch
ed men, his condition is the most piti
ful who, having thought to drown his
giiefiu drink, awakes from his de
bauch with shattered nerves, aching
head and depressed mind, to face the
same trouble again. That which was
at first painful to contemplate will, al
ter drink, seem unbearable. Ten to
one the fatal drink will be again and
again sought, till its victim sinks a
hopeless, pitiful wreck.
Work is your true remedy. If mis
fortune hits hard, hit you something
else hard ; pitch into something with
will. There’s nothing like good, solid,
absorbing, exhausting work to cure
trouble. If you have met with losses,
you don’t want to lie awake thinking
about them. You want sweet, calm,
sound sfoep, and to eat your dinner
with appetite. But you can’t unless
you work. If you feel like work, and
go a loafing all day io tell Dick and
Harry the story of your woes, you’ll
lie awake and keep vour wife awake
by your tossing, spoil her temper and
your own breakfast the next morning,
and begin to-morrow feeling ten times
worse than you do to-day.
There arc some great troubles that
only time can heal, and perhaps some
that can never be healed at all; but
all can be helped by the great panacea,
work. Try it you who are afflicted.
It is not a patent medicine. It has
proved its efficacy since first Adam
and Eve left behind them with weep
ing their beautiful Eden. It is an
official remedy. All good physicians
in regular standing prescribe it in
cases of mental and moral disease. It
operates kindly and well, leaving no
disagreeable sequalloe , and we assure
; you that we have taken a large quanti
| t v of it with most beneficial effects.—
! It will cure more complaints than any
! nostrum in the materia mcdica , and
j comes nearer to being a “ eurcali” than
| any drug or compound of drugs in the
| market. And it will not sicken you
I if you do not take it sugar-coated.—
Scientific American.
XtST Tire Christian Union, Beech
er’s paper, says: “The best service
that can be rendered to the South,
politically, is to let them alone.
Disabilities should be swept away at
a blow. There should be no more
Federal interference with local
affairs.”
That’s about all we ask of Mr.
Beecher’s party of moral ideas. If
they will just let us alone, socially as
well as politically, there will be no
thing to prevent us from getting
along harmoniously and peaceably.
Web ave no objection to their higher
law notions, their woman's rights, ne
gro equality, modern witchcraft or
spiritualism, tree love, nor to any of
their revolutionary or demoralizing
isms, if they will be content to enjoy
them to themselves. Even if that
hot-bed of isms, New England, should
want to secede from the Union and
set up for itself, so they do it quietly
and honestly we will endeavor to bear
the separation with Christian resigna
tion. W e are perfectly willing to ac
cord to our Nothem brethren every
right and privilege we have ever
claimed for ourselves if they will just
jet us alone—and allow us to manage
our local affairs according to our own
way of thinking. —Savqnnah News.

CARROLLTON, GEORGIA, FRIDAY MORNING, MAY 17, 1872.
Co-Education of the Sexes.
President White, ot Cornell Universi
ty, who has heretofore given consid
erable attention to the subject of co
education of the sexes, has lately
been visiting nearly all the colleges
and universities in the country where
the experiment has been tried, and
lias closed his tour of observation ful
3y convinced in the belief that the
system may be adopted with safety,
and with a fair prospect of extended
usefulness. Mr. White*-ite.s the ease
of thVacademies and high schools in
the State of New York, in which
young men and women of raarriagea
ble age have been educated together
‘rom time immemorial, without the
first case of scandal. He recalls the
scense of his own college life at New
Haven, wire re the few lecture rooms
that were shared with young women
were pleasanter, with loss noise and
rowdyism than those from which wo
men were excluded. He visited 01 er
lin and was much pleased with the
conduct of the two or three hundred
young men and women whom lie saw
there in their large dining hall ; and
this he considers a remarkably good
test of their civilization. He heard
the clearest and best reading of Taci
tus by a woman at Oberlin that he
ever heard, which to him was evi
dence of a clear strong mind. At An
tioch College, and at the Universities
of Michigan, .Wisconsin and lilnois,
the uniform testimony was that the
women fully equalled the men in their
attainments in the different branches.
Prof. Wood, of civil engineering, in
the Michigan University, lias practi
ced offering a prize for the solution of
a problem in higher mathematics ;
for several years the problem has not
been solved, but this year it was sol
ved by a woman. A gentleman who
* •
accompanied President White, and
who proposes to bestow $250,00) on
Cornell University as a fund for the
education of women, thought that the
women excelled the men in the powers
of acquirement ; but the President
remarks that the young women were
singled cut, while the young men
were taken as they ran. Several of
toe officers cf the Western colleges,
who had commenced the coeducation
of the coxes with many misgivings
have become favorably impressed by
the practical working of the system.-

Deleg ation to Congress in Behalf
of the Great Western Ganae. —The
survey of the contemplated route of
the Great Western Canal being com
pleted, Colonel McFarland, the Chief
Engineer, has gor.e on to Congress to
submit his report to that body. The
delegation from the several towns and
cities in this State are making active
preparations to foliq\v him, to use all
their influence in this important enter
prise in getting the recognition and
endorsement of Congress.
Besides a committee of five, appoint
ed by the National Commercial Con
vention, there are from this State a
delegation of twenty-five or more
prominent and influential citizens who
have always been leading movers in
public enterprises. The State Agii
caltural Society appointed Col. Thos.
Hardeman, ot Macon, Senator Stead
man, of Covington, and Col. Atkinson
of Marietta.
Mayor James, of Atlanta; Mayor
Screven, Savannah, and Mayor Iluif
of Macon, will all lend their personal
influence by attending as delegates.
Mi icon sends live delegates, Atlanta j
three, Savannah three, Covington two,
Brunswick two, Borne two, Miiledge
ville one. and probably Athens also
will send a delegate.
It is the purpose of the Atlanta
delegation, Messrs. Frobel, James
and Gordon, to leave this city about
next Wednesday or Thursday, so as to
reach Washington City on Saturday,
and they earnestly desire that the del
ogation from other cities may meet
them promptly in that city, to co-ope
rate with them in the interest of this
great enterprise.
Prejudice.— llow many of our
opinions are influenced by early bias!
llow few of us can claim that we are
free from the taint of prejudice! It is
the enemy ot truth, ihe chief obstacle
to science and philosophy, the foe of
reason. It is a veil which clouds per
ception, a moral narcotic which stn
pefies conscience. It blinds judges,
and defeats the adiuinistrucii of jus
tice. It is the parent of intolerance,
bigotry. It enables unprincipled men
to rise to dangerous eminence, and is
the most essential and potent bulwark
'of oppression in every land. Its
eradication can not be too early or
| earnestly sought bv those who would
inculcate sound economic principles
among the masses.

The Outlo k for 1372.
The year 1871 has proved to the
planter a failure, so far as his pecunia
ry interests were involved, and we
very much fear, as far as any salula.
ry lessons in that dear old school of
experience are concerned. It was a
short crop year in every department
of Southern husbandry.
In despite of all the glowing news
paper accounts that the freedmen
were working well, and that every
thing indicated a returning prosperin'
we have for an “exhibit” a balance
sheet which will soon lead to bankrupt
cy.
A short crop, with high wages and
heavy taxes, is a bad opening for the
new year.
A great many planters were forced
to put their cotton on the market to
meet liens and other liabilities earlv
in the season. Many who have held
over have been tempted by the high
prices lo speculate in fertilizers and
plunge in for a big cotton crop for IS
72. We have been amazed by the
quantity of fertilizers now being trans
ported into the iq per districts, lor
men who, heretofore, have never veil
tured a do lar in such experiments
Notwithstanding the admission, that
fertilizers were generally a failure last
year, the system of drumming and
advertising is pushing these coin
pounds into notice as persistently, al
most, as these modern pocket-picking
contrivances —insurance companies.
It is worth nothing, that a large
amount of the fertilizers is bought on
q credit, and must be deducted from
the profit of the next crop. Thecred
it system has ever been the heaviest
drawback to our prosperity, ai.d not
withstanding every man almost will
agree with you on this point, nine
out of ten will be unable to resist the
temptation.
The corn crop of 1871, was also a
failure, nearly every depot in the back
country is full of corn, selling readily
at $1,25 to $1,40 per bushel. The
wheat crop was a failure, and ten bar
rels of flour are sold where one used
to bo, at prices ranging from $8 to
sl2 vs. $5 to SB, ante bellmn.
Thousands of barrels of Irish pot a
toes from the North, have been sold
in the country at from $2 to $3 per
bushel, when every man could grow
his own potatoes if he would try.—
Ilay in large quantities has been
brought from the North to feed hors
VS in a country where the people ex
pend their best energies i:i killing
grass. The Yankee trooper, who is
billeted upon us, to hunt down ku klux
s£nds to Maine for wheat or rye straw
to bed his charger, in a country where
the straw piles left by the “travelling
thresher,’’ may be seen rotting on the
old fields of every neighborhood.
II unclerds of thousands of dollars
has been sent to Kentucky and Ten
nessee for mules and horses, to be
kept on Western corn, to grow South
ern cotton. Thousands of dollars
have been sent out of it for agricul
tural implements, seeds and Yankee
notions, which arc practically hum
bugs.
We are constantly encouraging all
manner of lotteries, gift enterprises
and swindling insitutions gotten up
pro Dono publico. .Upon the back of
this we have a heavy tax upon every
kind of industry—a regular system of
taxation which comes down as inevi
tably as the law of gravitation upon
the planter. Nor does this complete
the catalogue. Take a look at the
sales of real estate advertised in all
the newspapers of the State—for tax
es, for debt or for removal. Mark
the prices at which property sells,
compared to the prices assessed for
taxes. Take a run over the. State and
note the dilapidated condition of the
buildings, the broken down fences,
the waste places grown up ip weeds
and briers, the new clearings, the
miserable log cabins stuck upon every
hillock, without a sign of thrift or
comfort inside or out—in most eases,
without even a “wattled” garden or a
pine brush enclosed truck patch—no
hogs, save a pet long snout or razor
back ; no sheep and few cattle, and
answer us candidly, if the outlook for
1872 is encouraging enough to go it
all on cotton and sleep soundly.
We are either the most hopeful or
the most incorrigibly people under
sun, or the experience of the last five
years would have convinced us that
we are on the road to ruin.
Our women complain of want of
work, while millions are sent North
annually for ready made clothing.—
Our shoemakers and tanners have
turned to farming, because their trades
‘ do not pay, while millions are sent
North for shoes at higher prices and
for meaner articles than “ante belhtm.”
Our blacksmiths have gone to the
field, while we go to the store for
horse shoes, nails,lap-links, heelscrews
! false coulters and clevises,
j W e are daily becoming more and
more hewers of wood and drawers of
water for the capitalist. Is there no
remedy ? Yes, learn to keep out cf
debt, leans to live, as much as possi
ble, upon our own resources. Estab
lish our indcpendance. and then, cap
ital will seek us and aid us. We are
poor and might as well acknowledge
it. and come down to our work. The
day of big planting is past with most
of us, and the man who plants on
borrowed capital is gambling, with
about as much prospect of winning a
prize, as a subscriber to a grand gilt
enterprise probono publico,
[it is well to look even the most
desperate circumstances squarely in
the face. It is useless to shut our
eyes to a disagreeable outlook. We
cannot keep them always shut, and
the ugly spectre will not move away.
Our correspondent, whose age, exper
ience and high character and stand
ing, we may add, entitle his words to
a most respectful consideration, is not
inclined to ignore the unpleasant facts
which stare him in tin.* face ; but he
wishes to turn them to some good ac
count iii the way of lessons and warn
ings. We beg our readers to make
use of them to that end.
Now, though we cannot call in
question the correctness of our cor
respondent’s picture in its general
outlines, and as it appears from his
point of view, we mint say that we
think lie lias shaded it too darkly and
left out of view the lights, which, just
as surely as the shadows, make a part
of the landscape. Let us look at
things as they are. While we should
not ignore the dark side, neither
should we contemplate that alone.—
There are hopeful signs in the midst
of the general depression. There are
some rational farmers and some pros
perous ones. There are planters who
make their provisions, raise their own
stock. There are some who are. out
of debt and others who are striving
manfully to get out of debt. There
are some who are anxious to *®learn
the better way and to follow it
There are nearly a score of agricultur
al periodicals now published in the
South, each of which has many thous
ands of readers and all of which are
teaching, in the main, sound doctrines
in farming and rural economy. The
good seed sown is slow in germina
ting, perhaps, but it has not all fallen
in stony places or by the road side.—
It is springing up here and there and
will grow and ripen, and the harvest
will bring back prosperity to the
| South. In the meantime heed the
lesson which the writer of the forego
I ing article so ably enforces.— Elk] —

Profits of Farming - .
Our correspondent, “ A Country
Merchant, ’ makes a dismal showing
lor planters who are doing business on
borrowed capital ; but while the
chances may be far worse in Georgia
and the South than they are in the
North and West, we believe it is uni
versally true that fanning on pure
credit is a short cut to insolvency,
lie says that two thirds of the planters
in Georgia who have been farming on
a credit s-iucethe war, are now hope
lessly insolvent or fall behind everv
r *
year, and he calls for a remedy.
There is no remedy short of a hero
ic exercise or industry and retrench
rneut. We once heard of a small
farmer who worked one of debt and
paid off his liens by an absolute cessa
tion of the personal expenditures till
the result was obtained. He and his
family emerged in rags, and on low
diet, but he “ got out of debt"—never
went in again and died in peace and
plenty. Working out of debt is
climbing ‘-The Hill of Difficulty ”
it demands a self-denial, fortitude,
courage constancy and dilligence
which comparatively few are capable
of, and yet the other alternative of
sinking under the surface, of its black
waters is more appalling still.
An idea is very common that the
Legislature—or public meetings or
banks and capitalists may excogitate
some efficacious measures of relief for
a people overwhelmed in debt; but
it is altogether useless. Ten to one
they will only make the case worse in
the long run. The man who got into
debt so easy as tailing off of a log,
must scramble out of it as best he may
or he goes down for ever.— Telegraph

ike Cincinnati Platform in Full.
We, the Liberal Kepubicans of the
United States, in National Convention
assembled at Cincinnati, proclaim tne
following principles as essential to a
just government.
We recognize the equality of all
men before the law. and hold that it is
the duty of the government in its deal
ings with the people to mete out equal
and exact justice to all, of whatever
nativity, race, color or persuasion, re
ligious or political.
2. We pledge ourselves to maintain
the union of these States, emancipa
tion enfranchisement, and to oppose
any reopening of the questions settled
by the 13th, 14th,end 15th amend
ments of the Constitution.
3. We demand the immediate and
absolute removeal of all disabilities
imposed on account of the rebellion,
which was finally subdued several
years ago, elieving that universal
amnesty will result in complete pacifi
cation in all sections of the country.
4. Social self owernmem with im
partial suffrage will guard the rights
of all citizens more securely than any
centralized power. The people and
the public welfare require the snprem
acv of the civil over the military au
thority, and freedom of person under
the protection of the habeas corpus.
We demand for the individual the
largest liberty, consistent with public
order, for the State self government
and for the nation a return to the
methods of peace and the constitution
al limitations of power.
5. The civil service of the Govern
ment has become a mere instrument
of partisan tyranny and personal am
bition and an object of selfish greed.
It is a scandal and reproach upon free
institutions, and breeds a demoraliza
tion dangerous to the perpetuity of
republican government.
C. We therefore regard a thorough
reform of the civil service as one of
the most pressing necessities of the
hour; that honesty capacity and fidel
ity const it ;fie the only valid claims to
public employment; that the offices of
the Government cease to be a matter
of arbitrary favoritism and patronage,
and that public station become again
a post of honor. To this end it is im
peratively required that no President
shall be a candidate for re election.
7. We demand a system of Federal
taxation which shall not unnecessarily
interfere with the industry of the peo
ple, which shall provide the means
necessary to pay the expenses of the
government economically administer
ed, the pensions, the interest on the
public debt and a moderate annual re
duction on the principal thereof; and
recognizing that there are in our
midst, honest but irreconcilable differ
ences of opinion with regard to the
respective systems of protection and
free trade, we remit the discussion on
the subject to the people in their Con
gressional districts and the decision
of Congress thereon wholly free of
Executive interference or dictation
8. The public credit must be secure
ly maintained, and we denounce rep
udiation in every form and guise.
9. A speedy return to specie pay
ments is demanded alike by the high
est considerations of commercial mor
ality and honest government.
10. We remember wtih gratitude
the heroism and sacrifices of the sol
diers and sailors of the Republic, and
no act of ours shrill ever detract from
their justly earned fame or the full
rewards of their, patriotism.
11. We are opposed to all further
grants of lands to railroads or other
corporations. The public domain
should be held sacred to actual set
tlers.
12. We hold that it is the duty of
the government in its intercourse with
foreign nations to cultivate the friend
ship of peace by treating with all on
fair and equal terms, regarding -it
alike dishonorable either to demand
what is not right or to submit to
what is wrong.
13. For the protection and success
of these vital principles, and to sup
port of the candidates nominated by
this convention, we invite and cordial
ly welcome the co-operation of al]
patriotic citizens without regard to
previous political affiliations.
