Sunshine.
BY Oil AS. EDSyAUI> LtVKKE'rT.
r I here’s sunshine in the valley, and
sunshine on the hill;
There’s sunshine on the glassy'lake,
And in the sparkling nil
There’s sunshine in the woodland glen.
On every lout and tree,
There’s sunshine lavished on the world,
Rut none of it for me.
There’s sunshine in the palace, and
ithin the peasant’s cots ;
Tliere’s scarce a work ot earth wherein
The sunshine stealeth not.
The lordly cities, crowded marts,
The hamlet on the lea,
There’s sunshine everywhere, but, all!
There’s none of it for me.
I lie upon my couch and hear
The happy world gold by ;
I here s sunshine’s smiling on each
And beaming in each eye.
The mocking bird the merry child--*
The softly humming bee,
T lreir hearts are full of sunshine, why
Was none of it-for me?
Oh! ’twas not meant for me, this joy—
That other mortals know—
It was not meant that I should bask
In sunshine here below;
line when the gentle band of death
Shall set my spirit free,
in heaven I’ll find that God has made
Some sunshine too for me.
Mr. Bennett and the Herald.
The New York Tribune of Monday
lias a long and entertaining account of
the early life of Air. Bennett and his
newspaper, which is very readable,—
From it we make some extracts. The
Tribune says :
The first number appeared on the
6th of A fay, 1835, “ price one cent,
and for sale everywhere.” It was
started without capital. Two young
printers, named Anderson and Smith
agreed to print it and share the profits
,qy-Josses. The firm name was James
Gordon Bennett & Cos. Another
printer, of his own name, refused to
accept a half interest in the project,
preferring to work at a salary, and
so continued for 34 years to serve the
journal whic/i he saw grow from noth
ing into v. magnificent property. TUn
publication office and editorial room
was a deep cellar at No. 2'.) Wall
street, .where Bennett transacted all
the business of the little concern, re-
ceived. advertisements, sold copies
of the paper, and wrote all the
articles, reports, and paragraphs be
hind a deal board. The late William
Go wans, bookseller, wrote the follow,
ing description of a visit to the office
soon after the roper was established:
u The proprietor, editor and vendor
was seated at his desk,-busily engaged
writing, and appeared to pay little or
no attention to me ns I entered. On
making known my object in coining
in, be requested gre to put my money
down on the counter and help myself
to a paper ; all this time he continued
his. writing operations. The office was
a single oblong underground room;
its furniture consisted of a counter,
which served alscvas a desk, construct
ed from two Hour barrels, perhaps
empty, standing apart from each other
about four feet, with a single plank
covering both ; a chair, placed in the
center, upon which sat the editor, bu
sy at his vocation, with an inkstand
by his right hand ; on the end nearest'
the door were plaeeed the papers tor
sale.” Bennett had no assistant in
writing it. He rose at five in the
morning, and worked in his room un
til eight. Then he sat in his cellar
until noon, selling papers, writing ad
vertisements for his customers whose
education had been neglected, and
preparing copy for the printers. At
one he went out into the streets to
pick up news and gossip. From four
to six he was again at his counter, and
the evening was spent gathering ma
terials for reports in the next day’s pa
per. lie could not have gone through
these sixteen or seventeen hours of
drudgery had. not his vigorous con
stitution been strengthened by the ab
stemious and-regular habits by which
his life was always marked.
In 1851, the circulation of the
Herald was 2Q.Q00 copies -and its in
come at least SIOO,OOO. From that
time until the breaking out of the war
the paper gradually increased**its cir
culation and value as a newspaper
property. During the war its circula
tion more than doubled. Os one is
sue during 1864, than 132,000
copies were sold. Its present circula
tion is probably 80,030, but its profits
are annually much larger than for any
year during the war. Frequently
$7,503 are received for a single day’s
advertising. It employed, in addition
to its regular force, sixty three war
correspondents, at an expense for four
years of $525,000.
M ith reference to Mr. Bennett’s
personal habits and his manner of
conducting his paper the Tribune says:
He was stiictly temperate and vir
tuous. lie had neither low habits nor
idle hours. He never drank, even at
dinner, and nothing stronger than
CARROLLTON, GEORGIA, FRIDAY MORNING, JUNE 21, 1872.
-claret was ever displayed on his table.
The impression prevails that years
ago ho.withdrew from work on his
paper, but this is a great error. No
exchange editor in the profession was
so close and constant a reader as he
of the *great papers of the country
down to within a few months of the
.close of his life. Files of the princi
pal journals were sent to him daily,
and all were religiously rt ad. lie of
ten clipped pages for insertion in the
Herald, but generally for texts for
editorials or special articles, and when
lie visited the office it was to un
pack his mind of suggestions stored
there by reading the exchanges. lie
seldom gave an editorial writer mere
than the suggestions for an article,
leaving him to fill up the details, lie
required his editorial writers to meet
daily for consultation and the distnbu
tion of toiiics. When aether per
son presided, the several editors made
suggestions; when Bennett himself
was present the editors became mere
listeners, and wrote as it were, at bis
dictation. In nothing more did bis
personality display itself iu these
meetings, and his manner of ‘‘consult
ing bis editors,” by directing them
what to do, and disregarding sugges
tions from any one. Frequently,
when a writer expressed his views on
a subject, Mr. Bennett amused himself
by ordering him to write, taking pro
cisely the opposite view.
Don’t bi’ Too Sensitive. —There
are some people, ye-, many people,
always looking out for slights. They
cannot carry on the daily intercourse
of the family without some offense is
designed. They are as touchy as hair
triggers. If they meet an aquaintance
#in the street who happens to be pre
occupied with business, they attribute
bis abstraction in some mode personal
to them-selves, and take umbrage ac
cordingly. They lay on others the
tact of their irritabillity. A fit of in
digestion makes them see imperti
nence in every one they come in con
fact with. Innocent persons who nev
crdreamed of giving offense are as
tonished to find some unfortunate
word or momentary taciturnity rnistak
cn for an insult. To say tjie least,
the habit is unfortunate. It is far
wiser to t-alvte the more cLaril,dole view
of our fellow beings, and not suppose
a slight is intended unless the neglect
is open and direct.' After all, too,
life takes its hues in a great degree
horn the # color of our mind. If we
are frank and generous, the world
treats us kindly. „ If on, the contrary,
we are suspicious, men learn to be
cold and cautious to us. Let a per
son get the reputation of being touchy
and every body is under more or less
constraint, and in this way the chances
of an imaginary offense are vastly in
creased.
TixuNaxo (Jams.—Training girls
for household duties ought to be con
sidered as necessary as instruction in
reading, writing and arithmetic, and
quite as universal. We are in our
houses more t urn half our existence,
and it is the household surroundings
which affect most largely the happi
ness or misery ot domestic life. If
the wife knows how to “keep house”
if she understands how to “ set .a ta
ble,” if she has learned how things
ought to be cooked, how beds should
be made, how carpets should be swept
how the furniture should be dusted,
how the clothing should be repaired,
and turned, and altered, and renova
ted ; if she knows how purchases can
be made to the best advantage, and
understands the laying in provisions,
how to make them go furthest and
last longest ; if she appreciates the
importance ot system, order, tidiness,
and the quiet management of children
and servants, then she knows how
to make a little heaven of home—how
to win her child from the club-house,
he gambling table, and the wine cup.
Such a family will be trained to social
respectability, to busininess success
and to efficiency and usefulness in
whatever position may be allotted to
them.— l Jail's Journal.
The following very perspicuous and
laconic manner ot telling a plain story
may be instructive to slanderers:
‘•-Mother Jasper told me that she
heard Grate 'Wood’s wife say that
John Ilardstone mentioned to her
that Mrs. Trusty was present when
the widow Barman said that Capt.
Ileartell’s cousin thought Ensign Doo
little’s sister believed that Mrs. Oxby
reckoned that Sam Trifle’s better
half had told Mrs. Spaulding that she
heard John Khenner’s woman say that
her mother told her that Mrs. Rag
stelle had two husbands.”

ceased was a talented naan of roman

Saturday Night.
How many a kiss has been given—
how many a curse—how many a ca
ress—how many a look—how many a
kind word—how many a promise has
been broken—how many a soul lost—
bow many a loved one lowered into
the narrow .chamber —how many a
babe has gone from earth to heaven
how many a little crib or cradle stands
silent now which last Saturday night
held the rarest treasure of the heart !
A week is a life. A week is a his
tory. It makes events of sorrow and
gladness, of which people never heard.
Go home to your family, man* of busi
ness! Go borne to your family, erring
wanderer! Go home to the chair that
awaits you, wronged waif on life’s
breakers! Go home to those you love
man of toil and give one night to the
joys and comforts fast flying by.
Leave your books of complex fig
ures—your dingy office—your busy
shop! Rest with those you love, for
Heaven only knows what the next
Saturday night might bring you! For
get the world of care and battles of
life which have furrowed the week!—
Dr;iw close around the family hearth!
Saturday night has awaited your com
ing in sadness, in tears and iu silence.*
Go home to those you love, and as
you bask in ll>e loved presence and
meet to return the loved embraco of
your heart’s pets, strive to be a better
man and bless heaven for giving liis
children so dear a stepping-stone in
the river to the eternal, as Saturday
night.
USN A traveler was making a pedes
train tour of the Alps, when suddenly,
in a narrow path, he came face to face
with a large brown bear. He drew a
revolver and was about to Jire when
to bis amazement, the bear cried out
“Don’t fire!” It turned out that the
pretended bear was a man employed
by some guides, who sent him out
dressed in a bear skin when they had
a timid traveller to escort. At a
preconcerted spot the bear would
rush upon them, and when put to
flight by the of the guides,
the traveler never failed to reward
their courage and devotion by a hand
some present, of which the bear re
cei\ ed a liberal share.

a log cabin and asked for a drink,
which was supplied by a good look

man he had seen in several days he
offered her a dime for a kiss. It was
duly taken and paid for, and the
young hostess, who had never seen a
dime before, looked at it a moment

she should do with it. He replied?
what she choose, as it was hers. “If
that’s the case,” said she, “you may

fcJ" At Memphis, Tennessee, on
Saturday last, a singular detention to
railroad trains was had. The obstruc

caterpillars lying on the railway
tracks, and in crushing the insects,
the tracks became so slippery that
the wheels of the ears refused to per
form their legitimate functions. The
woods are literally stripped clean of
their foliage by these pests, and the
same condition is reported of other
localities.

From the Atlanta Constitution.
Cincinnati and Philadelphia
Contrasted,
The Radical Convention of Pltila
delphia has done its work. It was
composed largely of Federal office
holders, who owe place to Grant, and
who, therefore, had no other course
but to support the author of their for
tune. They did it unanimously. Xo
one expected any other result. Grant's
nomination was a foregone conclusion.
Sumner made his great speech of in
vective against Grant, hoping to drive
the Convention to throw Grant over
board. Os course it failed. It sim
ply rallied Grant’s friends to him.—
Nothing eould*have been more timely
for Grants success with that Collec
tion. Sumner’s speech leaves, howev
er, an impassable gulf between the
two. Whether he will remain a pas
sive spectator in the fight, or take
ground for Grant’s defeat, remains to
be seen.
Os one thing we may be sure, viz. ;
Grant will get the full strength of his
Radical faction. And another thing
is equally settled, viz. : That scorn
ing concessions that were expected,
the Grant party stands squarely ou its
platform of straight centralism. It
has made no effort to take the wind
out of the sails of the Liberals, as ma
ny believed and predicted. And this
last feature is significant. It shows
the belief of the Radical leaders that
the body of tbe Northern people are
still bitter on tbe war, and that the
successful programme is to still play
hate and proscription. The logic of
this cannot be evaded. There is a
sectional sentiment of proscriptive bit
terness prevailing at the North, which
the Grant men believe to be large
enough to carry them to a continuance
of power.
The refusal to grant full amnesty,
the determined attempts to continue
Ku-Klux laws, suspension ’of habeas
corpus, use of soldiers at the elections
etc., show this, and form a marked
contrast to the Cincinnati movement.
And furthermore, this contrast utterly
explodes all theory that there is no
difference between Grant and Greeley
and leaves consistent Democrats no
duty Lut to take Greeley as between
the two. This much is decided be
yond dispute. The m.im who hereaf
ter says Greeley is no better than
Grant is blind to facts, and must ex
pect his opinion to be shorn of its
strength by its unfairness and injus
tice.
But let us look a little closer. Bar
'ring the indorsement of what amnes
ty has been done, though it was done
against the Radical vote, by the help
of the Liberal 'Republican vote in
Congress, and also the little sop
thrown out about respecting reserved
right, which is totally falsified by ev
ery other declaration of the platform
the whole concern is for genuine uu
conditional centralization.
It carefully draws the distinction
that the unconstitutional amendments
must be upheld because right, and not
tolerated merely because law, and the
infamous doctrine of enforcing them
by appropriate legislation, such en
forcement to be entrusted only to the
Radical party, is broadly laid down.
Resolution 12 justifies every Ku-
Klux law, every congressional inter
ference with the ballot box, every en
forcement act.
lii fine, the platform is a square,
thorough, unemasculated enunciation
of the most venomous and full-fledged
centralism, and in perfect antagonism
to the broad declarations for constitu
tionalism as contained in the follow
ing words of Horace Greeley, that “our
policy should aim at local self-govern
ment, and not at centralization; that
the civil authority should be supreme
over the military; that the writ of ha
beas corpus should be jealously upheld
as the safe-guard of personal freedom;
that the individual citizen should en
joy the largest liberty consistent with
public order; ai*l that there shall be
no Federal subversion of the internal
policy of the several States and munci
cipalities, but that each shall be left
free to enforce the rights and promote
the well being of its inhabitants by
such means as thejudgment of its own
people shall prescribe.”
The gauntlet is thrown down.—
Radicalism is defiant and sanguine.—
It sticks to its heresies boldly, aud
throws itself on the country. It is
formidable in strength, and is backed
by the power of the administration.
It makes its issue clearly sectional.
The struggle will be desperate.
It behooves the Democracy to con
sider well before deciding its course?
Can it defeat Grant without the aid of
the Liberal Republicans? Can it af
ford to reject the co operation of those
of the Radical party who have left it
disgusted and alarmed by its centra
lization and despotism? What is the
most unsectional policy to pursue,
t’lat will ra'* *e the contest, and
thwart the efforts of the Radicals to
make a sectional fight?
Brethren, the battle will be no
child’s play, the result no worthless
bauble.
We must bring to bear between
this ami Baltimore the coolest wit, the
soundest judgement, the broadest
statesmanship, and the most self deny
ing patriotism in settling the Demo
cratic programme.
Let us have no more brash commit
tals of individual will,, regardless of
the party judgment, but let us consult
in brotherhood, reason in good tem
per, decide carefully, and stand to
getiieu for the uttered verdict.

Grants -Letter of Acceptance.
Gentlemen— Your letter of this
date advising me of the action of tl*e
Convention held at Philadelphia, Pa.*,
on the oth and 6th of this month, and
of my unanimous nomination for the
Presidency by it, is received. I ac
cept tbe nomination, and through you
return my heartfelt thanks to your
constituents for this mark of their
confidence and support. If elected in
November, and protected by a kind
Providence in health and strength to
perform the duties ot the high trust
conferred, I promise the zeal and de
votion to the good of the whole peo
ple for the future of my official life as
shown in the past. Past experience
may guide me in avoiding mistakes
inevitable to novices in all professions
in all occupations. When relieved
from the responsibilities of my pres
ent trust by tbe election of a succes
sor, whether it be at tbe end of this
term or the next, I hope to leave him
as Executive, a country at peace with
outsidomations; with a credit at home
and abroad and without embarrassing
questions to threaten its future pros
perity. With the expression of a de
sire to see a speedy healing of all bit
terness of feeling between the sec
lions, parties or races of citizens, and
the time when the title of citizen car
ries with it all the protection and priv
ileges to the humblest that it does to
the most exalted, I subscribe myself,
very respectfully, your obedient ser
v&m, ' ‘ * U. S. Grant.
It is amusing to note how
eagerly the Administration organs
quote from Democratic sources, and
how readily they approve Peinocratic
utterances, when they are opposed
to Greeley. Just at present such pa
pers as the Albany Evening Journal
are constant echoes of the New York
World, in its declarations of Mr.
Greeley’s weakness. It is natural to
suppose that if Mr. Greeley is as
weak as the World says, the Grant
organs would be pleased to have the
Baltimore Convention indorse him.-—-
It certainly would seem to he shrewd
political management upon their part to
help on such a consummation rather
than to work against it, as they are
doing. The fact is, tliey appreciate
that Mr. Greeley’s indorsement at Bal'
tiniore would insure Giant’s defeat
in November, and the} recognize
the World r.B an effective ally.— Chi
