I’d give the world to know, To feel that tender, gentle thrill, I use to feel long, long ago. Then, ae o’er life’s glttering tide, We rode on fancies golden wing, I had wo other thought beside, That one dear tweet, angelic thing. I’d freely g‘ve the toil of years, To see again, that soft sweet gleam, Welling up unditnned, by tears, Pure and bright as childhood’s dream. Ah ! who knows what love beguiles, My bleedijg heart still longs to know Beneath those curls and sunny smiles, Can lurk no bitter, hidden woe. Could I but taste the nectar sweet, That lingers in its s ft repose, I’d fear no clouds we’d ever meet, IV bile feasting on those lips of rose. Is th ere no sunshine left for me 1 To heighten thus the joy* of life, yfnd must my heart still broken be, And no sweet voice to lull the strife. ♦«#»• Wanted. The following gem, publish ed in 1856, was appropriate to g the times at that period.

Savannah, Griffin & North Ala baua Railroad.— The directors met at Newuan last week and decided to put up shops at Griffin at a very ear ly day. Capt. White, the president of the road, will devote his attention to the rapid construction of the road. He will make Griffiu his head quarters. His salary was increas ed by the board, so that he can give his entire attention to its management. It is now in a very prosperous condi» lion and will soon be one of the best paying roads in the State. The loca tion of the shops in Griffin will bring a large number of good mechanics here with their families, and the road is bound to to be a great advantage to our city. —Origin Star, CARROLLTON, GEORGIA. FRIDAY MORNING, MARCH 21, 1873. Whitesburg. This new village, at the present western terminus of the Savannah, Griffin <fc North Alabama Rail Road, has already become a place of great importance. It is growing very ra* pidly, and besides its local trade, which is large, it is the distributing point for the freights for the entire State of Carroll. The town is scarce ly a year old, and yet it numbers a population of nearly a thousand peo pie, all of whom seem to be getting along very well. The following siness houses have been estab.ished and seem to be doing a good business Jones & Cos, miscellaneous goods and drugs; W. K. Curtis, groceries and dry goods ; J. A. McMullen, dry goods and groceries ; Wn. McMillen, family groceries ; Hogan & Penticost, family groceries ; Gordon & O’Rear, restaurant: Velvin <fc Smith, bar, J. 11. Crews, blacksmith ; Smith <fc Rob, erts, family groceries, etc.; W. W. Boon, bar ;A. J. Richards, bar. Be sides these there are some smaller es tablishments that we are not sufficient ly acquainted with to comment upon. CHURCHES, ETC. There is a good Baptist Church built, and a Methodest Church in pro cess of erection. There is also a nice school house, which cost about $ 1,200, and it has a very prosperous school, with prof. H. M. Newton principal, who is a popular teacher. Number of pupils between 60 and 70. There is a vast amount of building going on in Whitesburg. One steam saw mill, engineered by the energetic Cowans, and one plaining mill are con stantly bugy and fail to supply the Je maud. A commodious hotel is managed by Mr. Harris, a son-in-law of Capt. Ken drick, with Mr. and Mrs. Marine, of Sweden, as superintendents. Marine is a whale of the largest siae, and we presume that Mrs. Marine is fully equal to the situation : at all events the house is well kept and the fare is good enough for anybody. They are crowded with custom, and the house is coining money. The general appearance of this new town indicates unusual prosperity, and there is no doubt but what Whitesburg will eventually be one of the big towns on our new Railroad. NOTABLES. Among the notables of the town arc Capt. Kendrick, Joe Boice, Dick Gor don, Judge Velvin, Rad Morrow, and Capt. Marine, Capt. Ivendrick is per haps the hardest worker in the place. He runs the Railroad, has a good deal to do with the hotel, and operates largely in real estate. Uncle Joe Boice, so well known in Spalding, is a “ head man.” Having a large for tune and no small children, he is de voted to the interests of the place, and expects to be first Mayor. DICK GORDON Is a man that can’t converse, owing to an impediment in his speech, but with the aid of an interpreter he makes himself exceedingly interesting, and is a real good fellow. He came from Pike. Judge Velvin is one of the old pannel of Carrollites. He is clever and honest, and used to be Judge of the Inferior Court. RAILBOAD MATTERS. There is a temporary stoppage of the cars at Whitesburg, owing to the enormous cut at that point, through solid rook. The depth of the cut is about 50 feet, and its length about 500 yards. It is a tremendous job, but Captain Kendrick, who has the contract, informed us that he expects od to get through by May, if he has good luck. He works about thirty hands in the cut. There are about one hundred hands grading between Whitesburg and Carrollton, and as soon as the Whitesburg cut is dispos ed of, the snperstucture will be rapid ly laid to Carrollton. BUSINESS OF THE ROAD. The business on the new road is far ahead of all ex-pectation. Although the road now has no great terminus, it is doing a fine paying business, and another train will be put on shortly.- Interest on Its debt is promptly and a good surplus is accumulating. Since the rgad has been in operation, no accident of any note has occurred. Nice little villages are springing up all along the line, and it is now evi* dent to any thinking man, that this road is of immense importance, even as a local road, and when it connects with one of the great western chan nels of trade, its value to our people can not be calculated in dollars and cents. —Grffin Star. ..... I.M m *m* » I DaT We are pleased to note the in creasing business of the S. G. & N. A. R. R. It is such that the President, Capt. A. J. White, has found ti nec essary to put another train on the road. There is a train exclusively for passengers, running on schedule time. —Neicnan Dispatch. Earth is Man’s only Abiding Place. Those who admire the writings of Mr. Geo. D. Prentice will be pleased to read the following extract again : “ It cannot be that earth is man’s only abiding place. It cannot be that our life is a bubble cast up by the ocean of eternity to float a moment upon its waves and sink into nothingness. Else why is it that the high and glorious as pirations which leap like angels from the temple of our hearts, are forever unsatisfied 1 Why is it that the rain bow and clouds come over us with a beauty that is not of earth, and then pass off to leave us to muse on their loveliness. Why is that the stars which ‘hold their festival around the midnight thrones,’ are set above the grasp of our limited faculties, forever mocking us with their unapproachable glory ? And finally, why is it that bright forms of human beauty are presented to our view and taken from us leaving the thousand streams of our affection to flow back like Alpine torrents upon the heart! We are born to a higher destiny than of earth.— There is a realm where the rainbow never fades, where the stars will spread out before us like the islands that slumber on the ocean, and where the beautiful beings which pass be fore us like the islands that slumber on the ocean, and where the beautiful beings which pass before us like shad ows will stay in our presence forever. ’ Governor Wise. A correspondent of the Courier* Journal, writing from Richmond, Ya., says: Any day you may see on the streets a white haired old gentleman, with a big head through and a head across, a powerful face, a florid completion, russet leather hoots and a muffler around his throat. This is General Henry A. Wise. He lives in Chief Justice Marshall’s old residence, prac tices law, i* doing well, looks well and is well He says he was born sick, and has been getting better ever since. In fact, he never was so well as he is now. Os him it might be said with perfect truth, what Judge Wil liam Daniel is in the habit of saying about himself—‘thirty years ago I was very old : I had the dyspepsia.” Gei. Wise may not have had the dyspep sia but he is certainly younger than he ever was. Fall of life, he is ready to li chaff ” every man, woman, child and nigger he meets. * The other morning, near the new market, I heard him singing out to an oyster dealer across the street: “You send me them oysters'’—he is not particular about his grammar— “g >od ones, too; or I won’t have ’em. You oyster men ought to have barns acles on your consciences if you’ve got any consciences, as big as my thumb.” The next moment he met an old negro. “ Good morning, old man. What’s the matter with you? Aint you hap py this fine morning? Well, you ought to be happy-you are free now.” And so he goes on with everv-body he meets. He is a perfect mine of knowledge of all sorts, and his store of anecdotes,reminiscences and stories, of eminent men would make the fors tune of an interviewer. The Southern Debts.— After all, we don’t now if there is not some moral force, at least, in the idea ad vanced bv Hon. B. H. Hill on the bond question. It will be remember ed that he took the ground, that as Bullock was the agent of the United States Government, the holders of these worthless securities should look to that power for payment. A move ment has been hinted looking to the general government assuming the debts of the Southern States contract ed since the war, and there is “ equity” in the proposition. The carpet bag gers, backed by the military, were the agents of Congress, receiving no au thority from the people of the South, and not responsible to them ; they contracted these debts under the au thority from the people of the South, and not responsible to them; they contracted these debts under the au thority of Congress, and they, are not morally if legally bound for them, but the general goverment is respon sible for the acta and contracts of its creatures. If these debts were taken off our people, they would take re newed courage and feel that there was a hope for the future. —Griffin New*. B@“Josh Billings was asked: How far does sound travel? His idea is that it depends a good deal upon the noise vou are talking about. The sound of a dinner-horn for instance, travels half a mile in a second; while an invitation to get up in the morning I have known to be three quarters of an hour goin’ up 2 pair of stairs, and then not have strength enuff lelt to be heard knocking the door. Taste for Reading. “If I were to pray for a taste” says Sir John Herschcll, “which would stand me in stead under every variety of circumstances, and be a source of happiness and cheerfulness to me through life, and a shield against its ills, however things may go amiss, and the world frown upon me, it would be a taste for reading. I speak of it of course only as a worldly ad vantage, and not in the slightest de gree as superseding or derogating from the higher offices, and surer and stronger panoply of religious princi pies; but of a taste, as an instrument and mode of pleasurable gratification. Give a man this taste, and the means of gratifying it, and you can hardly fail of making a happy man, unless indeed, you put into his hands a tri fling selection of books.—You may place him in every period of history; with the wisest and wittiest; with the tenderest, and the bravest, and the purest characters who have adcined humanity; you make him a denizen of all nations, a cotemporary of all ages. The world has been created for him. It is hardly possible but the character should take a higher aud better tone from the constaut habit associating in thought with a class of thinkers, to say the least of it, above the average of humanity. It is certainly possible that the manners should take a tinge of good breeding and civilization from having constantly before our eyes the way in which the best-informed men have talked and conducted themselves in their intercourse with each other There is a gentle, but perfectly ini sistible coercion in the habit of read ing, well directed over the whole ten or of a man’s character and conduct, which is not the less efiectual because it works insensibly and because it is the last thing he dreams ot. It civil izes the conduct of men, and suffers them not to remain barbarous.” How is tlus for High ? We don’t like to see a planter work ing himself to death to raise cotton with which to buy supplies, that could be easily made at home. Wliat would a Connecticut “ col lard ” raiser think, were he to drop i down this wav and see his cabbage | . J ° heads selling at 50 cts each ? What do our people think of pay ing from $2,50 to $3 per bushel for lis h potatoes, which grow profusely, by being simply planted in the earth. Is it right that we should buy North, ern apples at from thirty to seventy five cents per dozen, when enough of the very best qualities can be raised in our own midst to supply the whole country ? Is not fifteen cents per pound for beef pretty steep, when we “ could have cattle on a thousand hills ” and raise them at a very small cost ? Is it not very foolish for our people to talk about going West or anywhere else, when we have the finest country on earth and the only elements of success required, are energy, industry and economy? Are not people standing in their own light when they fail to build a factory, which could be built in every city and important town in the State at a cost of about one hundred thou sand dollars, that would scatter thou-, sands of dollars in their midst, bring skilled labor amongst the people and give employment to numbers of the community, and let their money be sent off after Yankee goods and t ricks instead of putting them in such enter prises ? Is not the almost universal and ru inous system of going in debt for many things people have no use for, and taking the chances of paying for them, unwise and bringing our coun try to bankruptcy and poverty.— Griffin News. The Columbus Sun says : “ So much interest is felt iu our community in the progress of the North and South Railroad, and we have heard so many inquires concerning its present status, that we determined to settle all doubts upon the subject, and to this end we on yesterday made application at the office of the company, and were in formed that the company had settled all indebtedness to Grant, Alexander ife Cos., in full ; that the company’s ar rangements for iron are satisfactory, and that work will be resumed next month.” ■ ■ ■■ ■ » ■ S®* At a meeting of the directors of the Savannah, Griffin & North Al abama Railroad, last week in New nan, Mr. Bowdre was elected treasu urer of the road, and Charlie Newton appointed agent at this place.—Grif fin Star. SST* Another one of our P. G.’s (Miss N. J. B.) left for Carroll on Monday last. There is a fearful account be ing scored against our young men! — EranJdin Netos, Why Aunt Sallie Never Mar ried. “ Now, Aunt Sallie, do please tell us why you never got married. You remember you said once that when you M ere a girl you M as engaged to a minister, and promised you M ould tell us apout it some time. Nom% aunt, please tell us.” “ Well you see, M*hen I Mas about seventeen years old I Mas living in Utica, iu the State of New York, though 1 say it myself, I was quite a good looking girl then, and had sever al beaux. The one that took my fan cy M as a young minister, a very prom ising young man, and remarkably pi ous and steady. He thought a good deal of me, and I kind ol took a fancy to him, and things went on until M'e M ere engaged. One evening he came to me and put his arms around me, and kind of hugged me, M*hen I got excited and some flustrated. It was a long time ago, and I don’t knoM r but what I hugged back a little. I M’as like any other girl, and pretty soon I pretended to be mad about it, and pushed him aM’ay, though I M’as’nt mad a bit. You must know that the house where I lived M as on one of the back streets of the tOM’n. There were glass doors in the parlor, which open ed over the street. These doors M ere • drawn to. I stepped baok a little from him, and xvhen he came up close I pushed him back again. I pushed him haider than I intended to ; and don’t you think, girls, the poor felloM r lost his balance and fell through one of the doors into the street.” “ O Aunty ! Was he killed ? ” “ No. He fell head first, and as he M’as going I caught him by the legs of his trousers. I held on for a min ute and tried to pull him back ; but his suspenders gave May, and the poor young man fell clear out of his pantaloons into a pai’cel of ladies and gentlemen along the street.” “ O ! Aunty! Aunty ! Lordy ! ” “There, that’s right, squall and giggle as much as you want to. Girls that can’t hear a little thing like that M’ithont tearing around the room and he he-ing in such a M ay, don’t know enough to come iu when it rains. A nice time the man who marries one of you will have, won’t he. Catch me telling you anything again.” “ But Aunt Sally, M’hat became of him? did you ever see him again ? ” “No ; the moment he touched the ground he got up and left that place in a terrible hurry. I tell you it M’as a sight to be remembered. How that man did run ! He M’ent out West and I believe he is preaching out in Illinois. But he never married. lie Mas very mode»t, and I suppose he was so badly frightened that time, that he never dared trust himself near a woman again. That, girls, is the reason I never married. I felt very bad about it tor a long time—for he M as a real good man, aud I have often thought to myself that M’e should have been very happy if his suspen ders hadn’t given aM’ay.” A Fighting Parson. The Edgefield Advertiser tells the following anecdote of the late war : During Longstreet’s campaign in Tennessee, while a portion of his army was under a fearful fire of shells from the enemy at Campbell's Station, a private soldier within a few feet of the Colonel of his regiment, had both his legs torn off. The regiment was not fighting but waiting orders. The wounded man was lifted a couple of yards in the rear to die. Another private now marched down the line, under a hail of missiles, and said to the commanding officer, “ Colonel, may I have a few moments of prayer with that dying man ? The Colonel said, “ Are you a clergyman ? ” The private answered I am.” ‘Then, said the Colonel “ do as you desire.” And the man of God knelt and pray ed with and for the dying man five or ten minutes, without moving or sway-* iug his body, seeming totally uncon scious of a storm of shot and shell, which, the Colonel tells us, he never saw surpassed in fury. In a few days the praying private was announced in the field orders as Chaplain of the regiment—“ promoted for gallantry and piety, on the fiield.” The regi ment was the Hampton Legion. The Colonel was Gary. The private sol dier was the Uev. W. M. Thomas, now pastor of the Methodist Churches of our circuit. - Facts— A contemporary puts the matter which it wishes to enforce in the following neat simile: “You might as well attempt to shampoon an ele phant with a thimbleful of soapsuds, as to attempt to do business and ig nore advertising.
