Oh, tell mo silver-eyed Queen,
Have you seen my darling to-night,
As you come over the tire hill tops
With you 1 * soft pinions of light.
Where the streamlets aie brightest,
And purest and whitest the foam,
Oh, there among the tall cedars,
Is my own—ray dear Maggie at home.
There’s the sweet smile on her face,
And the soft gleam of her eve
That hide ter ibaale something about ’er,
That draws her so charmingly nigh-
Her ringlets are glossy and rich
With beauty adorning her brow,
0 if you’ve seen my darling to-night,
I know you’ll remember her now !
Tell me some little twinkling star.
Say, have you not seen her too,
As her image reflected its sweetness,
In thy bosom of crystal-like blue.
Beams that have shone on my ‘ Love,”
T adore the beauties they crown,
I’ll kiss them the live-long night,
Till the dear old moon goes down.
An Hour in General Lee’s
Room.
In strolling around, the first spring
day, we stopped at the Memorial chap
el and passed through the rooms pats
ticularly associated with the memory
ot General Lee. The guard, a student
of the university—walked with us
through the apartments.
Over the marble slab in the centre
otithe library room, are wreaths of
flowers, crosses and crowns ot immor
telles in a circle of autumn leaves.—
The marble is inserted in the floor and
over the vault.
From this room a door leads into
the office once used by the Secretary
ot the taculty. This is now bare and
empty. From this apartment a door
opens into a small hall and then into
the “‘General’s room,” us it is called.
It is well known that its furniture has
never been changed. It remains as
left by General Lee.
The round table in the centre of the
room is still covered with his papers
—all orderly arranged. The scraps ot
blank paper were kept in a systematic
manner. A professor took a piece for
a memorandum, when the general
handed him a fragment from another
lot. He had intended the first sheet
for another purpose. All his writing
was done at this table, lie used an
arm-chair with Lather seat and on
rollers He wrote rapidly, rarely ins
terlining or omitting words. There
were no such things a3 rough drafts,
lie finished at a single heat whatever
he had in baud. -When his feelings
were enlisted his pen never paused
down to the last period. His ‘orders,’
or rather addresses to the students,
important correspondence were
finished with the ink wet on the first
lines. lie never dictated and .used
the official secretary sparingly.
His favorite pen was a large gold
one of a curious model. It was al
most as broad as it was long. It was
heart-shaped. A firm in Baltimore
owned the pattern. The pen of this
kind used by him was accidentally in
jured. The writer, at the request of
Gen. Lee, carried it to Baltimore,
while on a Northern trip, and had
another made from the original die.
The inkstand is still on the round
table. The ink is raised by atmospheric
pressure’applied by a screw. The in
scriptions on it directed the ink to be
lowered when not in use. lie never
failed to turn the screw and Tet the
ink down into the stand before leav
ing the office One of his secretaries
noticed his regularity in this particular.
There was a lounge in the room;
but lie never was known to rest him
self for a moment on it. There never
was a pair ot slippers or a robe de
chambre in his room. It is needless
to say no cigars or pipes were there ;
lie wasn’t friendly to tobacco. But
once was he known to violate the
smallest propriety of his position. Du
ring a dull routine of “Faculty meet
ing,” in warm weather, the President
dosed for a few minutes. He sat, as
usual, erect, but his eyes gently yield
ed to the heat and humdrum. His
colleagues, with courtly grace, let the
business pause till the brief nap ended,
and then started with the last words
the chairman had heard. This triumph
of Morpheus was not alluded to.—

Al length it is proved that a

This is the way it came to pass. A

CARROLLTON, GEORGIA, FRIDAY MORNING, APRIL 25, 1873.

Sliding Down Hill.
BY SANDY HIGGINS.
Wonder how many of my readers
ever enjoyed the pleasure of sliding
down a pine hill on aboard? You
may talk about skating, and balloon
ing, but it isn’t a circumstance to the
sliding exercise, and when a boy can
manage to get a girl to take a voyage
with him, the cup of his happiness is
just about full. The only draw-back
to the sport is pulling the machine
back up the hill, but I never could
study out any plan to help that. Old
as I am, if ever I find a hill upon
which I can slide both ways, I shall
lay aside my age and dignity and go
at it with all the vim of boyhood’s pal
my days. (I think that last sentence
borders on the sublime ! ) But I’m
seriously arfraid I’ll never find that hill.
In fact, life has been an uphill busi
ness with me, anyhow. When I
start down hill (and I generally trav
el in that direction.) I’ve never found
any difficulty in getting along, but if
I undertake to go up, all the world
and gravitation seem to combine
against me. Strange, how willing
people are to lend a helping hand to a
fellow when he makes a start down
the Hill of life! Your best friend
would desert a funeral to give you a
pat on the back. Sich is life.”
Well, when I was getting my edit
cation hammered into my head though,
to tell the truth, the greater portion
of it was thrashed into my rear guard
but wiren I was going to school, there
was a hill near the school house,
about a hundred yards long, and tol
erably steep and smooth. As the hill
side was covered with a thick growth
of pine trees, the ground was always
provided with a thick coating of pine
straw, which made sliding down it as
easy as falling off a fodder stack,
• though coming back up it was a job,
but this we were obliged to put up
with, as we did whaling, and other
little pleasantries attending our school
days. Almost everybody that was
any account had a sliding board of
his own, and a grand time we had of
it, you bet. But as has always been
the case with me, I was not satisfied
with my doing well. And right here
I may remark that my ambition to
outdo others lias been the cause of a
great many of my troubles in this lit
tle world. I never could be satisfied
unless I was getting ahead of some
body, which often resulted in my com
ing out'behind the crowd.
Well, as I was saying when I was
interrupted, 1 determined to ->ut
shine the boys, so I spent one Satins
day in manufacturing a sled as big as
a young cart body, a real affair, with
which I intended to open the eyes of
the rest of the school—and 1 did !
You see, > there were a couple of girls
at that school who were taking up a
good share of my attention, and I was
laboring for their benefit. Molly and
Jane were the objects of my worship
at that period, and they had often ex
pressed a wish to take a ride down
the hill, but their big chuckle.-headed
brother never would let them, and I
determined to treat them to a free
ride, even if I had their brother to
whip, which I thought would be an
■easy job.
When Monday morning came, I
lusTged my huge machine to the school
house, and deposited it in a safe place
to await the play hours. It seems to
me that there was never such a long
forenoon as that was. The lessons
were longer and harder, and teacher
was Grosser, and whipped harder than
ever before, but the morning finally
passed away, and playtime was an
nounced, I could hardly wait to eat
my dinner, before I made my way to
the hill, dragging my treasure with
me, where I was greeted by the jokes
of the boys.
“Boys,” said Tom Wallis, “ Sandy’s
stole his daddy’s wagon body to ride
in ’
“ Looks me re like a flat bottomed
boat.” said another.
“ Why didn’t you bring a mule to
drag it up the bill again ? ” queried
another.
“ Never mind,” said I “ I’ll show
you something, directly. Your sort
of ridiu’ aiut worth a cent.”
So saying, I placed my new turn
out in position, and called: “ Now
Molly, if you and Jane want the best
ride you ever enjoyed in your life, jist
step into the cabin.”
“ Better not git into that concern,
gals, onless you want to run up a
pine,” said their brother.
« *.'ou shubupyour flytrap,” said T
‘lt the girls want a ride the'-
have it.’
‘But won’t it th" , ' v us asked
Molly, who was like a young bird
when it goes to leave the nest—all in
a flutter to go, but afraid to start.
‘ Runs as smooth as a duck,” I as**
sorted, though T bad never tried if
But you see, 1 was determined to car
ry my point, and after a little more
persuading, they got aboard, and I
prepared to start. For a few yards
we sailed smooth and nice, and Molly
7 J
exclaimed ? ’
‘ Oh, ain’t it nice ? ’
‘\\ ait a while, said I, ‘you ain’t
seen nothing, yet,’ and they hadn’t !
The machine kept getting faster, re
quiring all my attention to guide it,
but I might have made a safe voyage
if the gills hadn’t got seared, and
both grabbed hold of me, which made
me feel like I was riding on a rain- j
bow, with aivgels and butterflies to
keep me company. Ot course this ;
didn't mend the matter, and by the j
time we got half down the hill, my
train took a notion to switch off.—
W.hat with the girls holding to me,
and the good feelings it put on me,
I coulden’t guide the engine as well
as I should have done, if I had kept
my senses about me. Consequently
the head of the column struck a grub
and slaunced off at an angle of forty
five, and I knew it was all day with
us then. The girls were screaming
like catamounts, the boys laughing
and shouting, but I didn't have any
spare time to attend to them. Just
then all my attention was required at
home, and there was no time for look
mg back, or engaging in foolish con
versation. I expected every instant
to strike a pine, in which case I knew
we would would all b itt it like so
many billy, goats, for I had sense
enough left to know that if my sled
should come to a dead halt, the pas
sengers, like riches, would ‘ take wings
and fly,’ without ‘ standing on the or
der of our going.’ On we went, with
the rush and roar of a half grown
whirlwind, making the straw smoke
i in our wake, and throwing rocks and
[fine knots about.in a first rate style.
Occasionally my ‘dug out’ would
glance a pine and shoot oft at a tan
gent ; then another would turn it
back, so that our course resembled a
black snake’s, but cot quite as smooth
ly. It was a delightful ride, but I was
prevented from enjoying it for I knew
the end was near, and that it would
not be very funny in the winding up.
I saw just where we were going, and
shuddered at the consequences. Just
btfjrenslay a large log across the
hill, on the upper side ot which the
dirt and straw, had drifted to the top.
Right beyond that was a perfect wil
derness of briers and bushes, and be
yond them was one of the black-mud
branches that abound in all pine
woods countries, soft enough to mire a
shadow, and black enough to make a
dark spot on a crow’s back. Well,
my sled made a straight shoot for the
log, and there it left the earth entire
ly.
‘Hold on, gals ! ’ said I for I didn’t
know what else to say, and there
wasn’t really much use saying any
thing, for the good it would do. As
for myself, I closed my eyes and wai
ted, with all tne resignation I could
muster for the end, which was not
long coming. The sled in its fright
struck a sapling which stopped its
course, but I continued my journey
through the briers landing flat of my
back in the mud, with a noise like
you’d spanked a twenty foot plank on
the water. As soon as I could get
the mud out of my eyes ! looked
around for my fellow passengers.-
Molly had taken the left hand, and
went through about the thickest of
the briers, leaving enough scraps of
calico on them to piece up a prize
bed quilt, and when I sawiier she was
making frantic efforts to get the right
end up, in which she was not succeed
ing to any great extent, from the fact
she hadn’t recovered her senses suffi
ciently to tell which was up, and was
1 crawling about in eager haste, evident
ly bent on doing something, it she
could only find out what was needed.
In fact she didn’t appear to have any
decided opinion.- on the subject of
latitude and longitude, just then.
Hearing a grunting and splashing
on the other side, I looked around
and there was Jane, down in the mud
which she was slapping with both
hands, as if she was going into the
hoe-cake business, varying the exer
cise occasionally by a vicious kick,
that didn’t help matters a bit. He;
path through the bushes was another
alarming display of “ shreds and
es, having left enough dry goo-’ 8 tn

scrambled up - ue appeared to have j
cone int mourning, but whether for j
p e ,. ms or the death of her short-liied ;
joy, I wasn’t prepared to say. By j
the time I had made these observa
♦ |
tions, and scrambled out of the mud,
the boys helped the girls out, and j
then their brother turned on me with. (
‘What the devil did you do that
for, Sandy ? ’
‘ It done itself ! ’ said 1., savagely, i
for I was in no humor for an argu ■
ment on the subject. *
‘Ef you wasn't so cussed dirty I’d
pitch into you like smoke,* continued
he. * I told you not to take the girls
on that fool thing, an’ von ought to be
buried forty feet deep in that mud
hole for it ’
‘Jim Lncas,’ said I ‘ I’ve advised
you once to-day to keep your mouth
shut, and now if you go to jawing me
in my present state there’ll be a
right smart funeral at your house, and
you’ll get to it without walking, so
take care of the girls and let me be,
or I’ll not be responsible for your
family’s goi.ig into mourning over
your untimely end.’
Jim looked as though he had a
mind‘to go for ray carcass, mud and
all, but his sisters claimed his atten
tion, while I went to the water to get
some ot mother earth out of my hair
and eyes. Before I had made much
progress the school bell rang, and we
started to the house, for it was a rule
with the teacher to whip the last one
that came in after the bell rang, and
we were all generally in a hurry.—
When I got in the house he told me to
stop, while he had a good look at me.
‘ Do you happen to know what you’ve
made of? ’ he inquired, after finishing
his survey.
‘ Black mud chiefly,’ said I
‘ It seems so, he continued ‘ and do
you know what I ought to.do with
you ? ’
‘ Let me go home and get some
clean clothes,’ was my reply.
He seemed to think I was right,
for he dismissed me, telling me to
hurry back, with a handfull of switch
es. I didn’t hurry back but brought
the switches, and— ‘ you know how it
is yourself.’ Suffice it to say that my
going through the briers and mud
wasn’t the worst part of that day’s
spoit by several lengths.
The Printer's Estate.— -We clip
the following from an exchange :
The printer’s dollars—where are
they ? A dollar here and a dollar
there—scattered over, the numerous
small towns all over the country miles
and miles apart ; how shall they be
gathered together ? The paper maker,
the journeyman compositor, building
owner, the grocer, tailor, and all as
sistance to Idm in carrying on his bu
siness, ha v e their demands hardly ever
so small as a dollar. But the mites
from here and there must be gathered
and patiently hoarded, or the where
with ;to discharge the liabilities will
never be sufficiently bulky. We imag
ine the printer will get up an address
to his widely scattered dollars, some
thing like the following:
“ Dollars, collect yourselves and
come home. "You are wanted. Com
binations ot all sorts of men gather in
such force,aud demand with such good
reasons your appearance, that nothing
short of you will appease them. Col
lect yourselves, for valuable as you are,
you will never pay the cost of collect
ing. Come here in single file that the
printer may form you iu batallionsand
send you forth again to battle for him
and vindicate his feeble credit.’
Reader, are you sure that you
haven’t'-a couple of. the ; printer’s dol
lars about your clothes? If you have,
order them home immediately.
Female Loveliness.— Do not think
you can make a girl lovely if you do
not make her happy. There is not
one restraint you put on a good girl’s
nature—there is not one check you
give to her instincts of affection or of
effort—which will not be indelible
written on her features with a hard
ness which is all the more painful be
cause it takes away the brightness
from the eyes of innocence, aud the
charm from the brow of virtue. The
perfect loveliness of a woman’s coun
tenance can only consist in the ma
jestic peace which is found iu the
memory of happy and useful years,
full of sweet records; and from the
joiniug of this with that yet more uaa
jestie childishness, which is still full
ol change and promise, opening al
ways modest at once and bright with
Lope es better thi*£ s to be won and
ta bestowed* There is no old age
where Gftere is still that promise—it is
eternal youth. — Huskin.
How to pop the Question. —The
way John Stuart Mill proposed to the
young lady who eventually became his
wife, is
‘ Strange but true.’
‘ I wish I had your head, Mr. Mill,’
said the lady, on an occasion when
that gentiemau had solved for her a
knotty point.
‘ I wish I had vour heart,’ replied
Mr Mill.
‘ Well,’ said the lady, ‘ since your
head and my heart well, I am
willing that we should go in copart
nership.’
And it was so
—
A mau who gives his children hab
its of industry provides tor them bet
ter than by giving them a fortune.
Golden Grains.
Firmness without mildness is harsh
and fordidding; mildness without
firmness becomes weak and contemp
tible; both united make a character re
spectable aud amiable.
Experience keeps a dear school; but
fools will learn in no other, and scarce
in that ; for it is true we may give ad
vice, but we cannot give conduct.—
However, they that will not be coun
selled cannot be helped, and if you
will not hear reason, she will surely
rap your knuckles.
Humility is the lesson of silence
It is by measuring ourselves against
.the unsolved mysteries of science that
we learn our feebleues-*
Example. —Every man thinks him
self, in one respect, oi more impor
tance in the world than he is but he is
of more importance in another respect,
than he thinks himself. His influence
and example tell more than he gener
ally supposes, often even upon persons
who seem but little to regard him.
Beware of Ingratitude. —lnsult
not misery, neither deride infirmity,
nor ridicule deformity. The first
shows inhumanity, the second tolly,
and the third pride. He that made
him miserable, made the happy to la
ment him ; he that made him weak,
made the strong to support him. Do
not show thy ingratitude to the great
Creator by despising any of His crea
tures.
Education is a better safeguard of
liberty than a standing army. If we
retrench the wages of the schoolmas
ter, we must raise those of the recruit
ing sergeant.
Charm of Manner —There are
some persons who possess an inex
pressible charm in their manners, a
something which attracts our love
instantaneously ; without wealth po
sition, or talents, still a diguity hovers
round them, and ennobles every ac
tion.
Women. —lf;nations begin at last
to understand each other’s true inter
ests, morally or politically, it will be
through the agency of gifted men ;
but if ever they learn to love and sym
pathize with each other, it will be
through the medium ot women.-ATrs.
Jameson.
A true religious instinct never de
prived a man of one single joy.
Ignorance bridles the tongue of the
wise, but gives perpetual motion to
that of the fool.
The cure for most maladies is era
plo)inent. “Be not solitary ; be not
idle.” Rely upon it, life was not giv
en to us to be spent in dreams and
reveries, but for active useful exertion
—exertion that turns to some account
to yourself or to others, not laborious
idleuese.
No man can be a Christian without
having a Christian spirit. It is the
condition of the heart that determines
whether you are a Christian or not.—
Being a Christian is not being faultless;
it is not being in a state in which you
will not stumble or fall ; it is -being in
that state in which you recognize the
hatefulness, of sin, and seek to over
come it. Taking the soil, uncultivat-i
ed as it is, and putting iu the right
kind of seed, and giving it the right
tillage, and then waiting patiently for
the harvest—that is what makes you
one ot the Christ’s husbandmen.
A Model of Brevity. —Secretary
Seward’s will, which was written by
his own hand at Pekin, China, No
vember o, 1872, is a model of clearness
and brevity reading as follows :
In the name of God, Amen.'
I, William 11. Seward, of Auburn,

this my last will aud testament, hereby
