litsbonsm '1 own—Building.
1. ifoW KIRKWOOD WAS BUILT.
The land on which Kirkwood has
been built, belonged to . He
refused SSO an aci'e for it, but had
the tract surveyed, a town laid out,
and then offered every other lot for
sale at $25 an aero, requiring the pur
chaser ot each lot to erect good im>
provements thereon within a certain
specified time. It is stated, too, that
purchasers had to be men of moral
worth and character, and that Kirk
wood is now one of the most pleasant
communities in Georgia.
The owner of the Kirkwood props
erty had the good sense to invite pur
chaser, offering them some induce
ments to build on bis lots— those re
served netting him a handsome prof
it.
*ll. MOW' BIRMINGHAM WAS BUILT.
Ely ton was about to get a railroad,
or onejhad reached the place and anoth
er was coming Whereupon the El) to*
nians'formed a very exalted opinion
of themselves, and of the value of
their property, and commenced to
rate town lots at most extravagant
prices. -Instead of inviting mechanics
and other business and professional
men to settle in their midst and build
up the town, purchasers tcere driven
‘away by high prices. Some sharp
moneyed men saw their opportunity.
They formed a Land Company, bought
a desirable tract of land not very far
from Elyton, had a town laid out on
it, and iuvited purchasers to come and
buy, offering them desirable lots at
reasonable prices. Birmingham raiss
©d her head arid Elyton lowered hers.
The approaching railroad was diverted
"to the new, the liberal, the enterpris
ing town—and Elyton lost the bright
prospects she had two years ago and
1s rtlw a mere second fiddle to the ri
val whom she forced into existence.—
So goes the tale.
Sic transit gloria mundi,
111. HOW CARROLLTON WILL BE BUILT
Must be told by some future histo
rian. It is to be feared, however, that
there is 6ome of the Elytonian leaven
in our midst, and that certain proper
ty holders, having built—in their im
agination—an immense city here, are
disposed to rate their } ( ots at prices
that would make a merchant from
some of our little towns—Atlanta for
instauce—-in quest of a site for a subur
ban residence, almost lose his breathj
“Spirits red and Spirits gray.”
The spirits at Surrency, the witches
in Buffalo, the ghost in Denver, the
devil iu Tradd street Charleston, the
Alatoona phantom brakes mao, and
the doctors in Atlanta, appear to be
having a lively time and to be exciting
a good deal of interest. One of the
Atlanta D. D’s says that if Virgil’s
spirit will write -him twenty lines or
more of original matter, in true Vii
gilian style, chirography and langnage,
if Plato, David, Mohammed and Zo
roaster, will do the same—-that, then,
be, the said D D., will believe. The
doctor’s argument is an unfortunate
one. It cuts in too many directions
to be conclusive on any question. If
it is a good weapon in the doctors
hands against spiritualism, is it not
equally good iu the infidel’s hands
against the doctor. Is .not the doctor
indebted for it to some infidel objec
tor against revelation ?
“There aro more things In haaveo *cd earth, 110
ratio,
Thaa we dreampt of la your philosophy,”
A faot is one thing—a proposed ex
planatiOn another. The fact may be
acoepted as such, whilst the proposed
explanation may be rejected as wholly
unworthy of consideration. Are there
not many inexplicable facts ? Certain
ly there are mauy facts which have
never been explained, yet we accept
them as such in the many thousands
of every day occurrences. The doc
tor s would not be conclusive to many
minds, and none would rebel against
it sooner than the doctor himself. Its
too much like TyndalY prayer test.

The Atlanta Constitution of Thurs*

General Wofford voted lor General
N. P. Banks, of Massachusetts, for
Vice President
The electors appear!© have strange
ly misapprehended the trust reposed
in them. They were elected to cast
the vote of Georgia for Greeley and
Brown. The death of Mr. Greeley
required them to do one ol two things,
to cast a blank vote for President or
compliment some distinguished demo
crat with the undivided vote of the
State. But whatever shadow of ex
cuse tnay be found for voting as they
did for President, they are wholly in
excusable for voting -for any other
person than B Gratz Brown for Vice
President. They were elected for
that purpose, and those who failed to
•do so have proved recreant to the
trust reposed in them. The people
will doubtless make a note of this.

TJie Be§t Training School,
It may surprise you, Mr. Pedago
gup, and cause your indignation to
rise, to be told that however good is
your Primary, your Intermediate, your
Grammar, your High School, your
Academy, or even your College and
Professional School, however carefuls
ly your course has been prepared and
mapped out for others on the currieu
lum; however long the time allowed
for the studies; there is yet an institu
tion superior to any one of these, or
all combined, for helping a man to
6u«*cess in any department of life.
This institution has long been over
looked and neglected by our educators
in fheir plans, estimates and theories;
and yet it is a very old establishment,
older than any other educational in
stitution in Europe or America.
It is, in fact, God’s own school, and
is coeval with the lace.
Os course we refer to the Fami

Here is nature’s plaoe and mode of
teaching and training men and wos
men, —right at home in the beautiful
fire-side circle.
There’s nothing like it; never will
be anything to match it, as to the ap
pointraents for discipline, for develop
ment of character, disposition, and
manners; and those subtler elements
of refinement, of sympathy and of so
ciability that so adapt a person fi.r
life and its duties among men, are
then and there, in the formative per
iod of childhood 1 inwrought with the
very being, so as to become second
dature.
A true home is the best school; and
there one gets the first ar ; the best
part of schooling. The parents are
the model teachers for the child. They
are the natural teachers; to them the
young eyes look with respect and love;
no question as to knowledge or
thority. What a field !
The two patents who have but one
pupil in this relation, may not lightly
view their opportunity nor their res
ponsibility.
However, the object is not so much
to eulogize the family, as to show
what may there be done by way of
training the child, and how it may be
accomplished.
Avery broad field, and probably a
difficult task ; hence, we can but jot
down a few principles.
We might safely and comprehen
sively say, in the first place, whatever
direction the training of the child is
to take : that the parent should actu
ally be what he wishes the child to be
The old motto, “ Esse quam videri ,"
may well apply here, which, transla
ted by the quaint humorist, would
read : “Ho! parent, if you want your
child to walk in virtue’s path, it will
be a good idea to travel that way now
and then yourself!”
Here we get at the foundation, af
ter all. Think you that those two
small eyes cannot detect hypocrisy ?
To do and to be what you wish the
child to imitate is to insure succes*.—
Not many words need be used ; not
many blows; not many tears required;
and the “Train up a child in the way
he should go,” <fcc., will not seem so
hard a matter. Hereafter we will no
tice more the “what and how.”

Real Estate.
‘‘Land,’ says the shrewd capitalist,
“is something of real value in itself.
Railroad stock is uncertain, copper
mines more so ; banks may break,
bouds may be stolen, but in land one
posseses something of intrinsic value,
something positive and real in itself, 1
something which thics not depend up j
on the honesty of directors for its i
worth.” Land is undoubtedly real
estate, but why then is not one piece
df it as valuable as another ? Would
our capitalists wiliingl vjexchange a lot
in the city of Boston, New York’
Chicago, or St. Lousis, for one of
equal size in the Catskill or Rocky
mountains, or in the Illinois prairies f
When we make the proposal we dis>
cover at once that the value of this
estate, which was before so “real,”
seems not to be a part of it all—but
that it has a derived value alone.
Ideas, thoughts, intelligence, are
very vague things. We cannot touch
or see them. They are not reckoned
as real estate, and yet, after all, what
is it that makes every foot of land so
valuable in New York city but these
same vague and unreal things 7 We
once tried to explain to an old lady the
fact that she could not boil her esrirs
so well on the top of a mountain as
at its foot, because the boiling water
i would not be as hot in the first case
las in the second ; but she positively
refused to bear any move, planting
; her denial of the truth of the story
on her firm assertion, ‘Biling water is
b’ding water.” In the same way and
with as much reason it might be said
that a foot of luiid is a foot of land ;
and yet in the one case it may repre
sent hundreds of dollars, while in the
other it may represent to its owner
only a minus quantity, and it is the
very vague things called ideas that
make all the difference.
Educated labor raises the value of
* * #
the material on which it works and
the tools it uses. Intelligence and
thought infuse “an upward teudence
ey” into all articles that they touch.—
Civilization, the result of education
coins gold from the most sterile soil
or the hardest rock. In the intelli
gence of the men who live on it con-'
sists the only value of the real estate
which seemed at first to have a value
of its own. Change the population of
Central Africa and that of New York
and how many dollars a foot would
be offered for lots on Broadway 7 All
this is very simple—but vfhat follows?
Only this; That if the capitalist wish
es to increase the value of the land
that he holds, his surest way is to
throw his whole influence toward the
education ot the intelligence ot the
people who live on or near it.

ti®* Two New Yoik assemblymen
were walking down State street,
in Albany, after the jjassage of a
tain bill. “I feel,” said one of them
“as if I deserved to be kicked for vo

plied “That’s just the way I feel my
self, let’s go up this alley and kick

Oshkosk, Wisconsin, has had an En
och Arden, but he didn’t come back
and gaze through the window at the
felicity of the reconstructed household,
and then go into the green and yellow
melancholy business ; not any. He
kicked the new husband out, sorted
over the children and sent his brats
after him, and then, after threshing
his wife, settled down into a peaceful
and happy head of the family.
Decline of Popular Humotists.
We can easily recall the wide popu
larity Doesticks (Mortiiper Thompson)
gained as a humorist. His Dainphool
was in everybody’s mouth, and in
many persons characters. His sketch
es were copied all over the land, and
laughed at immoderately. He came
from Detroit, Michigan, to New York
and the Tribune, and scintillated for
a year or two, Then he proved
•wearisome, and ere long he sunk out
of sight, He wrote tor the weekly
stbry papers, but he had lost his at
traction, and recently went to Mir.
neapoliis, Minnesota, to assist in edit
ing a daily.
Artemas Ward followed. From a
humble local reporter on a Cleveland
(Ohio) journal he rose to more than a
national reputation. His phrases
were quoted by the people, and his
lectures drew crowds. He suffered
an eclipse. He went to England be
cause, it was said, his jokes were all
known here. He died, and the en
comiums that had been suspend, were
revived over his grave.
“Xasby” (Locke) rose to tame iin
mediately after the war ; had his cul
mination and decline. You seldom
sot his badly spelled words now,
though he lectures with pecuniary
profit ; edits the Toledo Blade, and
is worth 250,030.
Orpheus C. Kun (Robert 11. New
all) was highly commended for his
clever satires on the Army ot the Po
tornac in a New York weekly, but be
earne invisible with the return of
peace, lie is attached at present to
the staff of the World, and does the
“Social Studies” in th the Sunday isv
sue.
Mark Twain (Samuel L. Clemens)
was brought to the surface by bis
“Jumping Frog,” and universally ad
vertised by Iris extremely ludicrous
“Innocents Abroad ’’ the fuir y
man on the Gilaxyhe was proved
such a failure that he retired from his
department in confusion and panic.—
Ilis “Roughing It” is wholly inferior
to his other book, though it has sold
largely. The public are wearying of
him a little, and he must arouse him
self if be cares for his laurels.
Bret Ilarte conquered attention by
his extraordinary tales in the Over
land, and grew celebrated by his trifle,
“The Heathen Chinee.” Cities and
publications bid for him, and Boston
and the Atlantic carried him off.—
Since then he has been stifled almost.
We have had no really clever tiling
from him, according to the critics,
who consider his reign at an -end.—
John Ilay came home from Europe,
wrote “Little Breeches” and “Jim
Bltidsoe” and was made the theme of
countless paragraphs. His admirable
book, “Castilian Days,” gave him rep
utation among the cultivated, but
they are the few. He is doing fine
work on the Tribune, but he is slip
ping out of the public eye.
Even Joaquin Miller, the poet ot
the Sierras, has almost had his day.
Ills songs are pronounced monoton
ous" and his genius a manufactured ar
ticle.
We await, at this moment, another
coming man—somebody to put up and
pull down, lie will be along anon.—
The question is, Do our humorists
and literary lights decline, or do we
get tired of saying kind things of
them ? Do we declare them exhaust
ed because they are such, or because
we are merely fickle ?— St. JLous
Globe.
