Come htme “Dear Charlie."
BY R. J. GAINES.
Come home Dear Charlie ! come home,
Long we’ve list for thy foot-fall,
Come now in the sweet spring-time ;
And gladden the hearts of us all.
Come while the blossoms are rife,
In the green hills that surround us,
Yet, still more dear to my heart,
Are the ties that have bound us.
Come where “ Dear ones” are waiting;
And the “ Harp” in silence hath lain,
Oh none but thy magical touch,
Can stir its sweet breathings again.
The flowers are mantling the rallies,
And crowning the hill-tops above,
As rich as the feast of the soul,
Round the pure banquet of lore.
More than a thousand new charms,
The sweet-scented zephyrs would stir ;
And the moments in gladness pass by,
‘Dear Charlie!” if thou wert buthere.
In the prime of thy manhood,
While beauty encircles thy brow,
Don’t linger with strangers so long !
“Loved Ones,” would welcome thee now.
Slow to Commence Business,
There are many young men who
are in the habit of excusing their idle
ness and inefficiency with the plea that
they can do nothing without capital.
The lack ol means is the ready reply
they make to every appeal to action.
They imagine that they possess in
themselves all the prerequisites to suc
cess but capital. If they only had
capital, in addition to their other im
agined virtues, .they would do great
things ip the WQ*'Uk ithey would as
tonish the natives .with t,Ue boldness
and brilliancy of their enterprise.—
They would grow immensely rich, aud
then Jay the w orld under perpetual
obligations to their gratitude by the
magnificence of .tfoeir ibenefactions. —
This is the way ,t|}ey think and talk
they roll the vain glorious idea
over in their minds until they come
to .imagine that the wpr’d is ap ,i?n
mense looser by their poverty.
These persons forget one ifnpqif&uit
fact—that all capital is the product of
labor. That nearly all rich men in
this country were once poor. That
nearly every personal fortune they, can
enumerate is either the product of its
owner’s toil and skill; or tlie represen
tative of bis father’s toil and skill.
llow.did makers of thesse fortunes
get along without capital ? llad they
spent the vigor of their youth in idle
and foolish lamentations over their
poverty, they would have lived and
died poor aud left nothing but an in
heritance of honesty behind them.
Capital allied to labor and skill can
work wonders in the war of material
enterprises and the man who possesses
money finds it easy to make money.
Rpt capital is not the only indis
pensable to young men of the right
stuff for all this. There are other
kinds of capital besides acumulftted
money ; brains muscle, industry, horn
diligence, truth, fidelity ; skill,
tact, education —all these are capital,
jmd .ftjl of .them have a commercial
value, whioh the owner will be able,
sooner or later, to command in the
maket Provided with these, any
yqung man in this country may make
more than he need ß to spend evey
year, and thus jaave something at the
end of each year to invest as money
capital. If he needs money let him go
to work and thus give proof of his abil
ity to use it profitably and judiciously.
If we go into any great city, or in
to agricultural, district, we bud the cap
italists are those who have made their
fortunes without any outside aid.—
They did n °t waste .their ,time in re
pining in their poverty, and in silly
dreams of what they could do if they
had the money to do it with. They
went boldly and resolutely to work;
they toiled and thought and planned
and kept toiling and thinking and
planning, patiently, until at last they
grasped the fortunate moment, and in
nine cases out of ten they succeeded.

Bta?" The following story is told of a
young lady and gentleman, at a fash
ionable party in Nashville.
“T|ie young man wa*> handsome
and happy, {tfle young lady arrayed in
in lavender, rose, &c., with guld pow
dered hair flowing over her swan
like neok. Finding the heat of the
room too much for them, they sought
the 000 l shade of an arbor, where they
miurht listen to tbe fountain’s fall.
O *
The music rose and .fell, time flew on
silver pinions, and after an absence of
at least an hour our young friends re
entered the brilliantly illuminated par
lors. Xhe lady passed on in the
dance, hut the young man was slight
ly taken aback by his next neighbor
informing him that around bis neck
was the undoubted print of two arms,
in chalk and diamond dust, on one
shoulder a large pile of yellow pow
der, and on his upper lip and .cheek
diamond dust, bloom of youth, and
yellow powder mixed up generally.
The lady’s hair was observed to be
several shades paler.”
CARROLLTON, GEORGIA, FRIDAY MORNING, MAY 31, 1872.
From the Cleveland Leader.
Scene in A Soda Shop.
A reputation nearly blasted by a
“sarsaparilla slixger’s”
SMARTNESS.
W e have no hesitancy in stating
I that among the able-bodied male adults
| of this city the very common summer
beverage known as “soda water,” and
which is dealt out so unsparingly at
every corner during the heated term,
;is considered, to use their own lan
guage, * “thin drink.” But w’hile the
ingenious mixture of wind and water
is termed “thin,” strong liquors, such
as whiskies are altogether too “thick”
for a steady warm weather drink ;
and so the imbiber who must moisten
his flues w r ith some liquid refreshment
seeks a pleasant combination of the
two classes of drink, which forms a
happy combination that exhilarates
yet is not intoxicating. It is custo
mary among these bibulous go be
tweens to enter a drug store, call for
soda water, name their syrup, at the
same time giving a wink to the dis
penser of “slush,” who takes the gob
let, in which he places the syrup, then
stoops down beneath the counter
or retires to a back room, where,
by some mysterious chemical change,
the contents are colored .darkly and
the soda is -then let in upon the mix
ture, which is banded the customer
with a wink from the clerk. So much
for the process .; now for the sequel.
Saturday a venerable gentleman
(from ;tbe country, who is a respected
.church deacon, a justice of the peace, .a
a member of the “Band of Hope,” and
a Good Templar in his native village,
came to the city to trade a little in
dry goods, and purchase such agricul
tural implements as he needed to plant
and cultivate his spring .props. The
deacop is strictly temperate, and nev
er .looks upon the wine when it is red
any more than he does when it is any
other color. Unfortunately, our old
friend had suffered from opthalinia in
his early days, which left him with an
optical peculiarity, which caused his
upper eyelid to" drop every few se
conds, and which, to those not famil
iar -with ills infirmity. g&ve him the
appearance of winking intentionally.
The “Dcac:” is passionately fond of
soda water, and such light beverages.
He loves to ,fecl the gaseous com
pound coursing down his throat, aud
creating iuternal commotion and ty
phoopg, thathowever endurable by old
er persons, throw babes into .agony,
and require prompt doses qf pepper
ment ; so Saturday, after be bad
bought a few sho.vels, plows, hoes,
rakes, and threshing machines, also a
Dolly Varden for his wife, be thought
he would fill up with soda water and
drive on toward home. lie entered a
drug store, inquired the price of the
desired refreshment, then deposited
his scrip and awaited its mixture.
“What syrup do you want?” said
the urbane clerk, as he mopped off
the marble counter with the same tow
el he used a moment before to remove
the honest sweat from his brow.
“Oh, give me sasaparilly ; that is
about as healthy as anything, I guess.”
Here the deacon’s eyelid went back
on him and dropped quickly.)
“All right,’’ replied the fountain
tender, as he disappeared below the
counter, and came up a moment later
with the drinking-glass containing
about three fingers of “sasaapariller,”
to which he added the other ingredi
ents, and handed to the deacon. The
latter drained the contents to the very
dregs, then brushed the froth from
his mouth, smacked liis lips and said
“That sirup is a leetle stronger than
they generally make it, but my blood
is out of order, and I guess I'll take
another glass at the same tinie his
eyelid fluttered meaningly as before.
The dose was repeated, and the so
da-water bibber left the store. About
half an hour later he entered another
.establishment where a sign announced
“Soda and Mineral Waters on Draught.’
It was noticed the Deacon walked as
if lie had the string halt as he entered
the door, and his spectacles were up
side down on his nose. He called for
“Congress Water" at this place, sav
ing he “did not feel quite right, and
was afraid he had used too much sirup
in his soda water at the other store,
or else he was billious.” His optical
weakness exhibited itself’ as he spoke,
and returning the wink, the clerk re
tired to a dark closet, then returning
filled up a glass with plain “Congress”
and gave it to our now “tightually
flight” friend, who swallowed it with
out a murmur.
How many “sodas” the Deacon
stored away before he left the city we
are unable to say, but he was found
late in the day asleep in his wagon,
with a plow point for a pillow, and
and several yards of Dolly Varden
calico gracefully draped about his
person as a covering. He revived
sufficiently to inform a stranger that
he had been “drugged,” and a subse
quent visit to the localities where he had
taken soda water, developed the fact
that his unfortunate habit of winking
a defect over which he had no control
—was the cause of all his trouble.—
The soda-water dispensers supposed
him to be “one of the boys,” and, ev
ery time his eyelid dropped, took the
hint. The Deacon escaped the “jim
jams,” but says hereafter he will wear
a blinder over that eye when he pur
chases summer drinks, or else write
his order on a slate.
The Next President and His Cabi
net.
Mr. Greeley’s honesty of purpose
counts a great deal for him, and it is
truly suggested that with a well cho
sen cabinet he could put the Union on
the right track again. With Charles
Francis Adams, say, for Secretary of
State, there would be no paltering in
our foreign policy; with Trumbull as
Secretary of the Treasury, there
would be no miserly hoarding of gold
or ruinous fluctations in the money
market; with Hancock as Secretary of
War, the records of the department
would not bo mysteriously missing ;
with Cox as Secretary of the Interior,
civil service reform would not gasp
for life, while if these names were not
sufficient, a splendid talent would re
main for his unpartisan choice, There
are Doolittle, Cowan, Hendricks,—*
Schurz the silver-tongued, Thurman,
whose logic.and strength of intellect
are familiar in every State, Governor
Parker, whose wise policy in New
Jersey has .excited such coipmenda
tion, Governor Seymour qf New York
Palmer qf Illinois, English of .Gonqec
ttcut, Atkinson, Endieott, and others
of Massachusetts. The list is a bril
liant one, and when Greeley appears
as the central figure, the present ad
ministration, wish its gold sticks in
waiting and its .dilettante statesman
ship, does not prqvoke unlimited an
thusiasm.
When Baby is Sick.
A great hush falls omthe ear like a
knell, and an untold sadness settles
like a pall over the heart—for baby
is sick. Is it not strange that such a
week thing should have the power to
change everything within and without;
making the sunsfiipe that but yester
day played so merry and bright in
aud out of the windows seem such a
cruel mockery to day, and changing
the joycrb tones of the older children
into the very meshes of onr hearts ?
In such a time w r e feql as though noth
ing would bo too,much to allow her
to do, were she only well. What care
we about the order of the wrork-bask
et, w T hen the little hands, that made
such havoc therein, pulling out the
needles, unwinding spools, scattering
the buttons all over the floor and do
ing other innumerable things—are ly -
ing idle, with fever coursing through
each waxen finger? And does not ev
ery one in the house shave The solici
tude, thus making the anxiety gener
al? Even Rosie leaves her work in the
kitchen to make frequent inquiries
about “baby.” Papar comes home an
hour or two earlier than is his wont,
so anxious is he to learn how “baby
Hattie” is. But the most touching qf
all, is the pale sad face of the mother,
sitting at the sick couch, ever and
anon bending low over the idol of her
soul, to kiss the little cheek so bright
with fever, while her heart asceuds, to
the One who sent her darling, in a
petition silent though deep ; that the
sufferer may soon be restored to health;
and as her glance falls upon the tiny
red hood and eloak so lately worn by
the “baby girl,” w T hat wonder, that
the tears falls thick and fast? It brings
so vividly f o mind w hat may be. But
need ive longer dwell? Those who
have known what it is to have an
empty cloak and hood that wdll never
more be filled by the loved form for
which they were made, will know r
why mamma’s tears fell-to those who
have been spared that sorrow, twere
useless to explain. God grant they
may never know. Euda.
North and South Railroad—
State—tAid.-ttW e were yesterday
shown .-a private letter, written by a
thoroughly reliable gentleman, sta
ting, among other things, that Gov.
Smith had furnished his decision, at
the instance of the officers of the
North and South Railroad, to the
effect that the road was entitled to
State aid, and would receive it when
the first section of twenty miles has
been placed in running order. The
many steadfast friends of the enter
prise, we know, will be glad to learn
that this question is settled in favor
of the road. —Columbus Sun.

“Mama,” said a little boy who had
been sent to dry a towel before the
fire, “ is it done when it’s brown?”
Debt.
The word we have placed at the
head of this article, though composed
of but four letters is the synonym of
the most galling slavery. This little
word unfolds a volume filled w ith sto
ries of suffering, horror and death.
To be in debt is to be bound with
chains stronger than those around the
limbs of the man of blood, for often
the creditor is merciless. He feels
not for the misfortunes, but often de
mands what is due him w ith tone and
manner so harsh as»4o cause the debt
ors heart to ache and his bosom heave
with indignation.
Taking a glance at the number ol
collectors to be seen on the street w’e
are sure there are few men iu our
city who are not in debt. The mer
chant owes the men from whom he
buys his goods, besides his reut, gas
bills and clerk hire; the mechanic
owes his grocer; everybody owes the
shoe merchant, the doctor, or printer,
and all these bills, big little and small
must be collected. Once a month
sure as fate, here these industrious
people come with that little bill,
The debtor feels bad, because sick
ness, or other cause, has swallowed up
liis receipts, and he is unable to meet
his liabilities. Thus he becomes a
slave!
This credit system is a ruinous one.
It invites the making of a contract
w here at least one of the parties has
HO hope of fulfilling it. To give a
man credit, save in exceptional cases,
is taking a risk of coming out looser;
aud the result is, that large sums are
lost annually from bad debts. There
is pot a merchant in this city to day
who can collect as much as sixty per
cent of what is due him, and yet he
continues to credit.
Our advice is, get out of debt, and
kqep out. Learn to be financier; hus
band your ipcorne. Never live be
yond what you make. Do this and
you will be free. Go iu debt one dol
lar beyond what you make, and you
belong to the man you ow
Enterprise.
There are three-kinds of shoes w’orn
in,Japan, a brief description of which
may .interest the reader: 1. There is
the straw shoe. This consists of a
strong mat of straw, made to fit the
bottom of the foot, and fastened by
means of strings going through the
mat and around the ankles. The Ja
panese horses, what few .they have,
are shod w ith straw, in precisely the
same way.
fit the bottom of the horse’s foot, and
turned up a little at the sides, is fas
tened, on by means of ap-ings .gqipg
around the leg above the hoof. 2. The
second kind of shoe is ma£e qf elofh
for the upper part, and this is attach
ed to a sole of felt an inch thick.—
This,is the most common shoe of the
Chinese also. Then, instead of our
gum overshoes, the Japanese con
struct a rude sandal of w r ood, the bot
tom of which fits the .shape of the foot
and across the bottom are two trans
verse sections, cue nearithe toe and an
other near the heel, forming two huge
corks—a toe-cork and a heel cork—of
wood, four inches long and inch thick.
The whole is .constructed of, one .solid
piece of w'ood, aud kept on the foot
by means of. a strong rope or string
fastened to the top of like
the bail of r a kettle, under which the
loot is thrust to the instep, and the
pedestrian is.enabled to move “high
and dry” over a ,muddy road. The
tracks of such a traveller look queer
enough. 'Two,impressions in,the soft
earth, four inches long and one iqch
wide, and four or five inches apart,
are all you see.
Other People’s Business
One of our exchanges chonicles the
formation of a club for the purpose of
more effectually ascertaining the busi
ness of other people generally. It has
already attained a large membership,
and promises a flourishing institution.
The following are some of its rules :
Any rpember of the society who shall
be convicted to know more ol his own
business than of any other’s, shall be
expelled from the society without
a hearing. No member shall be al
lowed to sit down to his own table
until he has ascertained to a certainty
what his neighbors within three doors
of each side of his house shall have to
eat—whether they have paid for the
same, and if not, if they expect to.—
Every member who shall see two or
three persons engaged ip conversation
shall place himself between them until
he has heard all they have to say, aud
report the same accordingly. Every
gentleman visiting a young lady more
than twice, shall circulate the news
that they are going to be married, and
said members are required to report
all manner of thirgs about the lady
to the gentleman. This will break up
matches, and afford much gossip.
Are jests more than ten years old
properly denominated -decade jokes?
From the Bt. Jescph Flcrald.
True Love.
Yesterday in one of the Catholic
churches in this city, there was cele
brated a marriage, in which John
Holtzraan and Catherine Metz were
made one. There is not much iu the
simple announcement, yet thereby
hangs a tale, which we give to our
readers as it was told to us by a friend
of the bridegroom. During the war be
tween Prussia and France, Holtzman
was one of those who were in duty
bound to render service to bis coun
try. He was engaged to be married
to a girl named Catherine Metz, and
not liking the idea of exposing his
valuable person to the bullets of the
Frenchmen, he conceived the idea of
emigrating to a country where he
need not become a bold soldier unless
he wished. But then a little pecuni
ary difficulty presented itself. lie had
not the means to pay his passage out
of the country, and in his extremity
lie applied to his fiance. She had, with
an eye to some day keeping house for
Holtzman, saved up her wages aud
fortunately had in her possession at
that time about S2OO. This she freely
gave her lover, and he bade her a fond
farewell, and secured passage for
America.
Gradually he worked his way to
this city, but fortune, which he court
ed so sedulously, never smiled on him,
and he began to despair of ever being
able to send for his “ Dolly Varden,”
or of returning to consumate the vows
spoken. lie wrote to this effect, and
on last Saturday was agreeably sur
prised by receiving a telegram trom
her dated in New, informing him of
her arrival there and her intention to
immediately come to St. Joseph.
She arrived here yesterday morn
ing, and ere noon the happy couple
wore made one. She has paid her
own way from the old country, and
besides, brings money enough with
her to buy the necessary furniture to
begin housekeeping. Such devotion
ought to meet with its reward, and
we hope the newly lnarried couple
may never regret their action.
A Lesson.— An item is going the
rounds of the newspapers which is re
plete with encouragement to the
youth of America. It is to the effect,
“that early in his life Peter v Cooper
broke down in three different kinds
of business, and then tried the manu
facture of glue.” To this he stuck
with most unyielding tenacity, and
the result is before the world. Peter
Cooper now lives at the advanced age
of eighty and in the enjoyment of a
princely fortune. In the Cooper In
stitute he has erected a most enduring
monument, and one that will proclaim
his benevolence and philanthropy,
when all that is mortal of the donor
shall have blended with its mother
dust. In Baltimore, in Annapolis, in
Catonsvilie, in Towsontown, and in
fact,everywhere, we see young men
loitering idly on .the corners, and gaz
ing listlessly.atvery passer by. Ask
them why stand ye here idle? and the
invariable response is, “There is no
thing to Jo; if I only bad some capi
tal, I would soon acquire a competen
cy.” -Capital indeed! Have you two
strong arms? .Is there not .a big job
progressing in the tunnel of the Balti
more aud Potomac Railrord, and an
other in the Union Railroad? Know
you not, that the fiat of the King im
mortal has proclamed, that “in the
sweat of your face you shall eat
bread?” Capital forsooth! Young
man you need industry. Shake off
your drowsy powers; roll up your
sleeves and pitch in. Thus you will
acquire all needed capital.
Light as well as fresh air is needed
in a sick room. The sick especially
duriug convalescence, require light as
much as plants; not only light but di
rect sunlight. Its warmth is pleasant,
its associations are pleasant; but it
has other influences we cannot explain.
It aids ventilation, it warms and dries
the room, and renders healthful what
otherwise is poisonous. The pale,
weak, and bloodless, under, the .direct
influence of a “sun hath” gain color,
strength and health. Not that all
are to be exposed to it under all cir
cumstances, but, let the room have a
sunny, aspect.
