Editor Times.—l promised in my last to give your readers some jots about Carrollites in Texas. Since ex amining the ground over which I pro posed going, to individualize would consume too much of my time; and, perhaps, impose on tliat good nature i.ot the reader with accounts that have only a social interest to a tew. There | tore what I may say will be general, and may apply to a great many trom east of the Mississippi River to Tex as, in so far as my knoweldge extends. Many people have come to Texas with the idea they could live without ! work or very little of it, and that lit> Ue '‘head work." Rut instead of find ing “Where the money gro\V.-> on white-oak trees And the rivers flow with brandy/’ —an Eldorado where gold coin is Iv •/ ing round loose—a Paradise in whose breezes flit never a disease, they find I exas belongs to this ‘mortal sphere where peoples’ wants are supplied by the same or similar means as in all other ccuntri is with this difference between Carroll and Texas, (a fact many do Hot find out for several years) that just the least possible amount of work to make a crop at all, they can make as much, if not as much again in Texas as they did in Caitoll. This however, as we said, the): do not find out at first; but when they ascertain the true situation—work, they go at it and learn in a few years, by experi ence (men only learn by experience and hardly by that) that they can j make a crop in four months of the year, leaving eight to gather it and to rest. Rut then they have made a little fortune in those years of their experience and can afford to fall back °n their laurels and take life like all j other Texans who have been acclima ted. I have known people who came from Carroll that it they had had the means would trot have stayed in Tex as three months. It tf*ok ail»th*y could 'rake and serhfie'- to get here, consequently they to stay. But after making a 'crop, and forgetting, in a measure, the nice round pebbles in Daddy’s spring branch, (he old horse apple tree and the old ‘Bull pen’ yard, they became reconciled to try Texas another year. In the latter part of the summer after comes the distressing and aggravating chill and fever, which revives the Georgia fever and back they would go it they were well enough. Now, indeed, is a miss erable existence for them, and they resort to every body and every thing for relief and after taking the contents of drugstores, doctor shops, pill bags, roots, ‘ yarbs ’ and ‘things too mi's rnerous to mention,’ if they are not i killed, get ‘up and about.' Crops ! are so satisfactory and they to now be ing aclimated, yoii could not get them to go back to old Carroll for all your old poor, worn out, red-hills and' sedg fields in the county. I sometimes see accounts of some of your people back there who have given Texas t hasty visit and very casually taking notes of things, run back and proclaim Carroll the best countiyin the world. Now I tell you I know all about Carroll and a ‘right smart ’ about Texas and will reiterate ‘that some proclamation ‘flirt Carroll is the best country in the world’ for all ‘sieh,' for when I was a child and got out in Ihe dark a little I went scooting back to “Mammy’ I know of no Carrollite in Texas but what is doing better than he did in Carroll. It is true lie may have chills and fever for awhile but the less he has to do with doctors and drug stores the better for him. Many people never have had even chillc here and the most that do, bring them on many times by unnecessary exposure. With the proper care here iu our salubrious climate, (a care every ere should take in any country) OHe may hope to live as long as he would in any other, be he ol 1 or young . Adieu for the present Doc Wynne. Leesburg, Texas, Feb. 18th, 187 G. —• «C. It is said cf Lord Norbury that he would at any time rather lose a friend than a joke. On one occasion he be gan the sentence of death in this wise : ’Prisoner at the bar. you have been found guilty by a jury of your coun trymen of the crime laid to your charge and I must say I entirely agree with the verdict, for I see ‘scoundrel’ writ ten in your face.’ Here the prisoner interrupted with, ‘That’s a strong re flection— from your Lordship.’— Whereupon the Judge, keenly appre dating the joke, commuted the sen tence into transportation for seven years. CARROLLTON, GEORGIA. FRIDAY MORNING, MARCH 10, 1870. From the Boston Journal. “Sunset” Cox. The Editorial Which Wbn him his Soubriquet. “Why,” asks a correspondent ‘do you speak of Congressman Cox as Sunset Coxt’ The name was giveu to Samuel Sulivau Ccx years ago, and it will propablv stick, for Cox is al ; ways rising. Aside from his Demo i cratic proclivities, he is a genial, pleasdnt man. He was born at Zan esville, Ohio, graduated at Brown j University, ran through the Cam ; bridge Law school, finished his stud i ies in Cincinnati, married a wealthy wife from the heart of Muskingum j county, Ohio, did Europe in four ; months and wrote a book, went to Peru as secretary of legation, served several terms in Congress from Ohio, to New York city, and was picked up by the democrats after a short probation and was again sent to Congress. lie was an editor for a short time, and May 19, 1853, he pub lished in the Ohio Statesman the fol lowing gorgeous article, to which he owes his nickname: A GREAT OLD SUNSET. AN hat a stormful sunset was that of lnsf night! How glorious the storm, and how splended the setting of the sun! We do not remember ever to , have seen the like on our round globe. The scene opened in the west, with a whole horizon full of golden interpen entrating lustre, which colored the foliage and brightened every object in its own rich dyes. The colors grow deeper and richer, until the golden lustre was transformed into a storm cloud, full of finest lightning, which leaped in dazzling zigzags all around and over the city. The wind arose with fury, the slender shrubs aud gi ant trees made obeisance to its majes ty. Some even snapped before its i force. The strawberry beds and grass plots ‘turned up their whites’ to sec Zephyr us march by. As the rain came, und the pools formed, and the gutters hurried away, thunder roared grandly, and the fire bells caught the excitement And rung with hearty cho rus. The South and East received the copious showers, and the West all at once brightened up in a long poL j ished belt of azure, worthy of a Sic ilian sky. Presently a cloud appeared in the azure belt, in the form of a castillated city; It became more vivid, revealing strange forms of peerless fines and alabaster temples, and glorious, rare and grand in this mundane sphere. It reminds us of Wadsvvoith’s splended verse in his Excursion: ‘‘The appearance inst mt&nouesly disclosed Was of a mighty city, boldly say A wilderness ot buildings, sinking far, *Andee f withdrawn into a wouderotis depth Fir sinking into t splendor without endl” The city vanquished only to give place to another isle, where the most beautiful forms of foliage appeared, imaging a paradise iu the distant and purified air The sun, weaned ot ele mental commotion, sank behind the green plains ot the west. The ‘great eye in Heaven,’ however, went not down without a dark brow hanging over its departing light. The rich flash of unearthly light had passed and the lain had ceased, when the soleQJa church bells pealed, the laugh ter of children, out and joyous after the storm, is heard with the carol of birds; while the forked and purple weapon of the skies still darted illmn> ( ination around the starling college, trying to rival its angles ami leap into its dark windows. Candles are light ed. The piano strikes up. We feel that it is good to have a home—good to be on the earth where such re vela** tions of beauty and power may be made. And as we cannot refrain from reminding our readers of everything wonderful in our city, we have begun and ended our feeble sketching of a sunset which comes so rarely that its glory should be committed to type. Why I am a Poor Man. ‘Wool hat 7 in the Planters Advo cate tells the following plain story why lie is poor; ‘I am poor because I buy more than I sell. In the first place, I buy a part of ray meat trom the North West; mv fish comes from Portland; for the taking of which the Main lander receives a bounty from the Government. My onion sets and all my garden seeds I buy fi oui Michi gan. I sold the wool from eighteen sheep at cents per pound to an agent of a hat manufacturing com pany at Reading, Penn., four months thereafter, bought a hat from the same company, paying at the rate of six dollars a pound for the wool.— The hide of a buck, I sold at 5 cent per pound. It went to Elmira N. Y was tanned, sent back, and I bought it at 35 cents a pound, and it weigh ed more than it did when 1 sold it. My axe handles come from Connecti cut, my matches from Delaware, my pen, ink and paper from New York.— Am I the only fool in Georgia?’ ‘See here, conductor, why dont you have a fire in this car?’ ‘Well, you see, one of the directors is a clotoinu' man, and another is a doctor, and an other is a drug store keeper, and an other runs a tompstona factory, aud ?ou know in tnis world people must ‘Live aud let live.’ A Beautiful Girl Found Hang ing. Just as we are going to press, says the Conastota lie raid, we are startled with the full details of a sad event, which no doubt cast a shade of gloom over this community. For the press ent, out ot respect tor the suffering parents of the lady, we refrain from publishing the names ot the dramatis personal in the scene described below. For the last twenty years there has lived in this town an eminently re spectable family, the pride of whose household was a charming daughter of 17. Sue was as beautiful as the ideal of a poet, and as remarkable for intelligence as tor her surpassing live liness. were lilce stars in a summer night, and her form, warmed by the blood ot youthful, vigorous womanhood, was as graceful as a gre cian goddess. Her hair hung in graceful ringlets over her pearly shoul ders like molten gold, and her cherry cheeks, as soft as velvet, looking like roses mingled with snow. A ’natural result one would expect that a creat ure possessed of such charms ot tmud and form and feature would awaken the grand passion itl some man’s bo som; and such was the case. For several months past a fasinating young gentleman has bean paying her the most devoted attention. lie, too, Was handsome and intelligent. Iler female friends would occasionally tease her about him, and a flood of conscious blushes would irradiate her beautiful face at the very mention of his name. Every thing seemed to pass albng smoothly for a while, when all of a sudden she lost her spirits and wore a look of melancholy. ILT ; musical laughter, like tinkling of ■ dewdrops upon the silver leaves, was h ushed, and site seemed like a lilly that had been made to wither and fade by the burning rajas of a summer sun. Her parents became anxious about her condition and watched over her with tender solicitude; als though frequently questioned as to the cause of depression and sadness, she made no reply, except in an equiv*. ocal kind ot style that rendered cods fiision worse con founded. Yester day evening about 8 o’clock she was missed from her home, and the worst fears of her parents were excited.— They sought high and low, but she was nowhere to be found. Finally her mother remembered that of late she had been in the habit of sitting, sad, weeping, and distracted, in a vine covered harbor which Laos to the garden. He rushed to the bor, and as that distracted father gazed upon the scene that met his view, rendered more dismal by the low, glimhiering rays from the pale orb of night, his blood curdled in his veins, his cheeks turned pale and the heaving of his bosom plainly told that it was filled with deepest emos tior.. There before him was his beau tiful daughter, her tall and graceful form arrayed in spotless white, her long golden hair streaming like a flood of light down to her waist, hang ing—on, think of it, young men and maidens and parents!—hanging with her arms—around her lover’s neck and head pillowed on his manly breast. A newsboy was passing along the street when he chanced to discover a purse of greenbacks. lie was at first inclined to conceal it, but repelling the unworthy suggestion, he asked a venerable man if it was kis ? n. The venerable man looked at it hurriedly j said it was, patted him on the head, gave him a quarter, and said he ! would yet be president. The vener able man hastened off, but was arrest ed for having counterfeit bills in his j possession, while tne honest cefc’sboy played penny ante with his httfnble quarter and run it up to s2:6s. Mor al: Honesty is sometimes the best poli ' ey. I ‘ — The Atlanta Courier says that pro fessor Wm. Henry Peck, the famous author, now residing in that city, is now addressing probably the largest audience ever reached by on e story | writer. He has a serial running in each of the greatest story papers of j the age—the Ledger and the Weekly. The Weekly claims a circula* ion of 350,000. The Ledger has surely as many—so that 700,000 people buy copies of the papers containing his stories. It is reasonable to say that four people read each paper; which gives professor Peck an audience of two million eight hundred thousand ; readers. A large family that, to pro vide literary pabulum for. Berlin covers twenty-three square miles. TO THE OXE I LOVE BEST. BY R. J. OAIXES. Oh if seme bitter hidden woe, Shonld erer mar thy future years, With all the speed that lore inspires, Id taste to wipe away those tears. The sighs that rend thy constant breast, Too deeply stir the chords of mine, O yes! could I but bear the pain. No grief would ever torture thine: And still I’d worship at thy shrine, Beloved and cherished as thon art, And give to thee, tho’ not the first, The pure sweet essence of my heart. I’d twine a brighter chaplet then, With emblems of unfading bliss, And place it on thy snowy brow, And seal it with a warmer kiss. Yes—pity gives a glow to love. That sweetest joys can never bring; How sadly true, the scentless leaves, Outlive all the flowers of spnna. I’ll gtaVe thy iiiiage on mysohl, The ol(}ect of its purest love, And naught shall ever blot it out, Save that wondrous power abo re. The Education of the Presi dents. The Syracuse University Herald has made up the following table of presidents and their places of educa** tion, which is of interest: Washington—Good English educa tion, but never studied the languages. Adams—Harvard. Jeffersou—William aud Mary. Mad’son—Princeton. Monroe—William aud Mary. Adams. J. Q. —Harvard. Jackson—Limited education. Van Buren—Academic education. Harrison—Hampden Sidney Col lege. Tyler—William and Mary. Polk—University of North Caro lina. Taylor—Sl igh test mil i men Is. Fillmore—Not liberally educated. Pierce—Bovvdoin. Buchanan—Dickinson. Lincoln— Education very limited. J ohnson—Self-educated. Grant—West Point. Monroe and Harrison did not grad uate. Monroe left college to joiu the revolutionary army. Financial re verses deprived. Harrison of a full course. # Polk was the oldest when graduating, being 23; Tyler tho youn gest, 17. The majority graduated at 20, this being also the average age, Jefferson probably had the most lib** eral education and broadest culture*. It is said that his range of knowledge would compare favorably with that of Burke. The drill at West Point may be considered equal to a college course, and in ihauy respects superior. In discipline and mathematical trains ing it in cot equaled by many Ameri can colleges. Counting General two-thirds of our presidents have been college men. — Atlanta Courier: ‘Now, right there,’ said Dr Powell, ot this city, halting a Courier reporter in front of Colonel Nat. Hammond’s handsome residence,* is the scene of a pretty story. About twenty years ago,’ he continued, Nat. Hammond and myself were sitting near that tree, talking about marry ing. It was all woods here then, llammona said he would never marry* Just then two young ladies came walking though the grove, going out to the hill yonder td see the sun set, Harnmond said at once, If I could win srtch a woman as that one yonder I would marry.’ I asked him who it was. lie replied that he didn’t know but that she suited his ideas exactly. I went off to Texas shortly afterwards, and when I came back years after wards I met Hammond and asked him it he was married. ‘I am’ he re* plied. I married the very girl that we met in the grove that evening; and I have bought the grove that we met her in, and we are living there now. Ami so they are, 'continued the doctor, impressively, ‘and that’s what I call a romance.’ Brains in Time of Peril. The Grand Theatre at Vienna was crowded. The Emperor Francis, with several member* of his family, was in the imperial box. The play, Schiller’s ‘Robbers,’ had reached the third act, when a cry arose that the stage was on fire. Emilie Devrient signalled at once to the proprietor, ! who lowered the curtain. The actor stepping m front of it ere it wholly j fell, in his clear, clarion voice, said:— ! . ‘The Emperor has been despoiled of ;an aigrette of diamonds, iso honest! man will object to being searched You i ■ will pass out one by one at each en- | trance and be searched by the po- ! lice at the several doors. Any itiata ' j attempting to go out tit order will be I ! arrested.' The Crowd, deceived by the coolness poured out. As each readied the door he was simply told to hurry on, and just as the last rows of the upper gallery weie filing out the flames burst through the curtain. But not a hie was lost, though in less j than an hour afterward the building was in ruins. Many young ladies who are seized with the spelling mania should try to spell their mothers at the washtub. New Journalistic Ethics. The recent investigation in regard to the charge of bribery in securing the State road lease, has developed a phase of journalistic ethics with which we are not familiar. It shows that our people have learned that the in fluence or spaced columns of Geor gia journals may he bought or rented, or leased for a consideration to pro mote ceVtain ends in the Legislation of Stat* . That certain journals, when a great public question is to be decid ed by the Legislature, are ready to farm out their columns to either side at the rate of a few thousands or hun dreds of dollars. We understand by this that any man may pay his money aud take his choice and use the cdL umns of these papers for their own benefit in the publication of certain communications in which the editor need to know nothing about. So if a combination is formed to carry*a cer tain project before tho Legislature for the advancement of private ends all that is necessary to be done is to hire the columns of the newspapers. These are to he filled with cOminunU cations signed by different nom de plumes as expressions from various persons advocating the message in favor of private parties. This farming out of newspaper spate, Or influence, is anew theory in journalistic ethics to us. It is the first time w r e have positively known in the South that a great pub lic question could be so discussed. It is the first time we have known that the system of Yankee journalism could be employed in the interest of private parties to advance private ends at public expense. It is the first time we have known positively that the Southern press could he employ % ed to advance the interest of private corporations as against the public in terest. The first thing we know we shall see newspaper announcements to the effect that a certain amount of space will “be let” to the highest bidder and to any bidder at satisfactory prices,for the advancement of private tends in public affairs. We candidly say we don’t like the new journalis tic ethics just discovered. It may be corrupt or not according to tho taste of each’ individual. The New YdVk Herald, tor instance, might say it is legitimate business. The Cartersville Express, for instance couldn’t be so employed, as poor and insignificent as it is. It is only a question of taste.— Cartersville Ex press. Printing Office Secrets. The Brunswick Telegraph says that a properly conducted printing office is as much a secret society as in a Masonic lodge. The printers are not always under an oath of secresy, but always feel themselves as truly in honor bouhd to keep secrets as though they had been put through tripple oaths. Any employee in a printing office, who willingly disre gards this rule in regard to printing office secrets, should not only be scorned by the brethren of his craft but should lose his position in the office. We make this statement, be cause it sometimes happens that a. comunication appears in a newspaper, under an assumed signature, which excites comment and various par** ties trX to find out who is the aie thor. Let all be saved the trouble of questioning the h onorable employees or attachees of the printing office. They are ‘knownothings’ on such points as these. <?n such matters they "‘have eyes and e*ars, hurt no mouth,’ and if they fail to observe this rate, let them be put down as dishonorable members of the craft, who are Hn worthy to be trusted with anything. ■ ■ - Goon Advice.— ‘Now, boys’ said L ncle John, I want to give you a lit** tie advice. You must not he intimate with every boy you meet, but choose your friends, boys. Never go with those who speak bad words, or take God’s name ifc vain, nor with those who lie or deceive. Avoid the boys who quarrel and fight, breakt he Sab bath and disobey their parents and teachers-. And do not be found with those who mock the or afflicted, or are cruel to any creature God has made. Go with the boys who read the Bible, and pray and love Sunday School ami Church. Those who fear God and keep his command meuts will be safe lriends for yon.— Better have one such friend than a dozen wicked companions.
