Tine Georgia Euterprlae Bays: In the case of E.
Steadman, bankrupt, against Messrs. Spence A
Porter, in the United Staetes District Court,
Judge Eraklne has decided in favor of Steadman,
and ordered Sperce A porter to turn the Factory
property over to the Assignee within twenty days.
The Gridin News has been told that there is
enough money, in the banks of that city, to pay
any demand tha* will be made on them for cotton
soon, frem which we infer that the News docs
not cxDett much cotton on market. This will be
the esse eo long as Forsyth pays the pilces for
cotton that ehe has been paying this season.

The Telegraph and Messenger says: Two very
handsome elliptical mounds, double-terraced, are
In process of construction at the Park, immediate
ly In the rear of Floral Hall. They will be sur
mounted by those two large Iron v_se which
were lately received, In the center of each of
which will be a spray fountain. There mounds,
when completed, will be a great ornament to that
portion oT the grounds.
The Atlanta Constitution says: ‘‘Xu trial of an
ejectment case In DeKalb Superior Court yester
day, when the case was about half through, it was
discovered that the case was being tried by the
wrong jury. It was perhaps the first instance of
the kind iu Georgia. The list of the jury agreed
upon was called, and ten found present, several
being not in the jury box; counsel agreed to go
on with that number.”
Tub Albany News says : We are much pleased
that Mr. T. J. Smith, Master of the State Grange,
lias given out that all the Granges In the Cotton
Slates will be invited to meet in Macon during
the Fair week. It is a grand movement, and in
addition to btlnging vast numbers of the best
planters In the South t> the Exhibition, will tend
greatly to the promotion of the objects of the
organizition.
To see ten thousand Grangers in procession
would be a sight worth looking at, and the inter
est of the Fair Association would be immensely
enhanced by their presence
The Committee appointed to award premiums
for the best cooked dinner, at the Roma Fair, say
in their report ot the young ladles:
“With their own fair hands they have crowned
the brow of labor with an imperishable garland.
Tin y proclaim to the world “ the d’gnity o' la
bor ’—that work i- honorable. We have awarded
the fl <-t premium to MDs Hattie J. Johnson, and
the fecund premium to Miss Octavia M Shrop
shite For special excellencies in he dinner pre
pared hy Miss Alice Camp we recommend and re
quest that a premium worth S2O be awaided to
her; and also that a premium w rtta $lO be award
ed to Miss Sadie J. Shropshire.”
The Gritfiu News or Wednesday sUt s it thus :
“We have been informed that In all probability a
combination will be made with the North and
South road trom Cedar Town to Rome, and that
the ro’d bed of the latter will be widened so as
to accommodate the broad gus>ge. If this Is done
there will only remain thirty-two miles ol grading
to be done between Rome and Carroltou, In Car
roll county. We have no doubt but that the ab
•orption by the Griffin and North Alabama Com
pany of the Rome end ot the North and South
road would be readily acceded to by the city of
Rome, the largest shareholder, and the other
stockholders-”
The Standard & Express says: Early on last
Sabbath morning a man was found near the car
factory horribly mangled, haying been run over
by the train. There was found In one pocket a
loaded pistol and in the other a bottle partly
filled with whisky. The latter article was strong,
presumptive evidence cf the cause of his terrible
and untimely end. It is supposed that he fell
asleep on the track, aud when the 11 o’clock train
came along It mangled and crushed the poor ine
briate. The unfortunate man was not fully iden
tirt and at firs', but It was afterward* discovered
ttiat Ira name was William Abernathy, son ol
l/.nu Abernathy, of Cherokee county.
DaVona, the local editor ol the Columbus Suu,
mikes the lollowlng casual remark about Dr
Lay, of Atlanta, the man who seems anxious to
get up a fight:
“That he never touched a person in trieudshlp
or anger, is as infamous a falsehood as was iu his
power to perpetrate. * * Mr. Lay has put
bimsetf in this dilemma. He is under a ten thou
sand doliar bond to keep the peace in Georgia.
Under hia own signature be boasts he pulled my
nose. It he did so he forfaited hie bond, and to
ibis we call the attention of Judge Hopkins, of
the Fulton Circuit. It he did not, he must, iu his
detecse, admit he lied ”
Ths Louisville News and Farmer has the fol
lowing:
“ It is asserted ss a positive fact, that Louisville
la cursed with a few ci this low born, unprinci
pled, malignant clast ot people, who make it their
business to sneak around the Masonic ball during
the meeting* of some of the aecret organisations,
and endeavor to obtain information, by eaves
dropping, that will enable them to expose the or
der—tor no other pnrpose we c&unot Imagine
their object. Perhaps they are not aware that
they invite unto themselves Injuries of a very se
vere and serious nature. Their signs have been
noted and they themselves may be spotted should
•uch conduct ba repeated.”
The Love of Praise.
Thote who condemn the love of praise and la
ment the (ear of ahame misconceive the trne na
ture of these sentiments, and jndgeof them In
their degenerate state. The love of praise In its
reasonable, healthy action is not a craving lor
flattery. However eagerly an honorable love ot
praise may grasp its rnec-d, it rejects whatever is
not honestly its due. Bnt it is only in its healthy
action that this sentiment is productive ol good,
and therefore it U of greatest Importance that its
healthy action should be preserved; and this is
not to be secured by neglect any more than by
excessive laudation. The love of praise undoubt
edly lies at the root of all well-doing, and prompts,
at least originality, the love of dnty. By judi
ciously fostering this attribute of generous minda
the necessity for punishment, the ttfliction of
which is a pain to the sensitive, may be escaped.
Yet, as the love of praise is peculiarly liable to de
geueiate into a craving for flattery that qnickly
becomes insatiable, it is of the utmost importance
to keep that great principle in view, that “praise
is worth nothing it it be not tonnded on truth.”
Tue tear ot shame’ in its very nature, ia adapted
to be a restiaint upon the inordinate desire lor
approbation, jnst as the love of praiee is intended
to counteract the excessive and depressing dread
of censure. The temperaments moat susceptible
to praise are invariably most keenly alive to blame,
and it is the lault ot parents and teachers it that
6UFceptibility hardens nto indifference, or degen
crates into an unworthy appetite for adulation
independent of desert. The child that does not
care lor praise is always most difficult to control,
lor the sense ot shame i dull where desire (or
approval does nut exist; and equally dull is that
great moral curb where the love o! praise, that
spur to enterprise, is deformed into the degrading
appetite lor flattery. It b Amoves all educators
theu, whether parents or teachers, not to permit
carelessness, vanity, selfishness or Indifference to
convert this instrument of good Into a sourca of
evil. It behooves all who have the care of chil
dren to cherish this noble attribute; not to abuse
nor to rnghet it; for only th.ough the love ot
praise do rewards have eflicicy, as through the
fear of sbsme punishments work reformation.
While then wc are careful never to feed the young
mind on inordinate praise, let i>s be equally care
ful never to withhold hearty commendation when
well deserved—commendation that springs from
a hearty sympathy with honorable effort, bnt Is
yet plainly restrained within the bounds of truth
and justice. There will be little danger in such
praise becoming e xctsslve, and an absolute cer
tainty that it will prove an encouragement to
meiit.
Relief for Shreveport Sufferers.—The
Savannah News says: Our readers have been In
formed by our daily telegraphic dispatches of the
great suffering existing in Shreveport, La., on ac
count of the prevalence of the yellow fever epi
demic in its most malignant form. Requests for
aid have already been received in this city, as
stated In the News several days since, and have
been responded to by the Savant ah Benevolent
Society, which association promptly forwarded
two hundred Jollurs. We feel assuredly it Is only
necessary for our people to know that assistance
is more than ever needed now, to render it cheer
fully.
The folia ving telegram, which was received
yesterday at the office ot the Western Union Tel
egraph Company, iu this city, requires an explana
tory coimneut:
Augusta, Ga., September 15, 1873.
IF. 11. Turner, Mang'r, Savannah, Ga : Send
free all messages relating to the relief of Shreve
port, La., snd, at the request of the Governor or
United States Senator ot LouisaDa, you may re
ceive and transfer contributions ot mouty by tel
egraph without charge.

J. A. BhENNER, Supt. 3d District.
I.iFE on the Globk.—We have to confess our
utter Ignorance of the nature of this vital force.
We know neither what it is. why it is, nos how it
is, bet can judge of it by iis marvelous effects.
We see it now in operation every where, in the
depths ol the ocean, on the barren rocks, amid
the snows on the peaks of the highest mountains.
We have traced it down from the surface of the
earth to the point where it appears to have start
ed in the deep strata of the globe. And, go about
as long as we may seeking for some other expla
nation of its origin, we return always to that only
ratloual account giveu of it in those sublime
words of inspiration—“ The Spirit of God moved
upon the taea of the waters.” Chemical forces
have no power to originate it. Matter, placed
ruder all the circumstances most favorable to its
development, bin never called it forth Lite
come* always, even In the humblest shapes, from
that which is alive or has had life in it; and
there is no escaping the conclusion that the first
living creature was fastiioned by an an all-wise
and omnipotent C estor. Aid so, when the earth
had become a fit dwelling place for living thiugs,
life was added to its other forces.
Milton —The Puritan poet was bound to show
us more ol Puritauism than any other nun ; or
the poet is in the deepest ud od with the spirit of
his time. In so far, indeed, as he is a world-poet
he will be more than Lis age ;he will stave up
from the crowd to receive light past generations,
and to “take the morning” of the future : but not
the less will he be the child, the most characteristic
child, ol bis time No Puritan, not Cromwell him
self, was more Puritan than Milton Imagination
singles out these two and places them apart, the
Puritan poet and the Puritan King. In power of
brain and fiery strength of will, in velocity and in
trepidity of intellectual vision, they were about
equal. Cromwell was superior in massive sense
and infallible certitude of practical glance; Mil
ton had the incommunicable ol poetical genius,
enabling him to extract the essence of Puritan no
bleness, and preserve it for poaUritv, “married
to immortal vesse and equally to immortal prose.”
Those who have taken the care, to watch the
steps of these two great men, have caught some
i-OU-s of the music to which the histi rical pro
ctsaiou of Puritanism has marched.
The True Ladt. —The true lady would be as
polite to her inferiors as to her equals. The se--
vant who takes wages from her hand, the clerk who
serves her behind the counter, the dress-maker who
furnishes the elegant drecsts that so enhance her
beauty, the very child that sweeps the crossings,
and the beggar who solicits alms are her lellow
beinge, and have feelings which the true lady
never wounds, either intentionally or through
neglect, She is always thoughtful of others; ob
servant of the peculiar likes and dislikes of her
companions, that she may minister to the one and
avoid the o her. She yields to others the first
place, and gracefully lak s of her own accord the
second. She never shows temper in company;
bears neglect, as well as attention, with an unrnf
tied brow, and shrinks from being made conspicu
ous iu any way. She is pelite to all who approach
her, whether they be entertaining or the reverse.
She always behaves, speaks, even looks with Uch
Bhe is deferential to those older than herself, and
kindly affable to those younger and lesa at ‘.heir
ease. She remembers always the Bible injunc
tion, “Be ye courteous one to another.”— Hume

FORSYTH, GEORGIA, TUESDAY MORNING SEPTEMBER 23. 1873.
Heather.
On the top of an Irish mountain,
The wind has plenty to say,
The mild mists run, to catch the sun,
Who hides in fright sway.
Green and soft is the moss aloft,
Though nobody saw its birth.
And hurrah for the mountain heather,
The sweetest thing upon earth !
O soft is the sky that's above me,
O soft is the ground below,
Again and again fails the summer rain,
And also the winter snow !
My feet has found no su-adfast ground.
And never a resting piace;
But hurrah for the saucy heather
Look up and emiler in my tace.
On the top of au Irish mountain
The heather is tresh as May,
Everywhere ’tis shining fair,
In an innocent, careless way ;
Round about, and in and out,*
A bog is a fearfnf thing.
But hurrah for the blooming heather
That out ot its depths doth spring.
All flowers are exceedingly happy,
O that is a tact conlest.
As some suppose the garden rose
Is the very happiest;
Bome impart a lighter heart
To the lily, stately and tall,
Bnt we know that the mountain heather
Is the happiest ot all.
Some blossoms are very affected,
They languish and haug their heads,
Even refuse their lovely use
Except in the garden beds;
Shy are some, and will not come
To the sight ot a loving eye,
But hurrab, thebeamiinl n-juther
Looks bravely up to the sky !
Do you hear a delicate humm’ng,
So busy and jet so gay ?
Look and see the sweet wild bee
Fly forth on his upward way ;
Long the time I take to climb.
For the want ol his shining wing ;
But l be beautiiul mountain heather
Is made lor the wild bee-king !
O what were tLe world without mountains,
That glory God hath given V
Grand and fdr they pierce the air,
And stand up close to heaven!
How could they be glad and gay ;
Nor awe with a ragged lrcwu,
It the sweet little honey-heather •
Was not their innocent crown !
Forstth.—The mammoth tdition of the Atlan
ta Constitution of the 14 tb gave the following in
teresting and appropriately correct report of For
syth :
Incorporated iu 1822; has been steadily itn
pioving, particularly since the close of the war,
and is now a prosperous town. Amount of annu
al bnsmess : Groceries, $553,000; dry goods, $200,-
000; g;ano, $100,000; other business, $150,000;
Kentucky stock, 250 head of horses and mules.
Cotton is the principal product; 10,000 to 12,000
balea shipped annually. Lunds are worth about
ten dollars per acre; cotton averages to the acre
about one third bale; corn averages to the acre
about twenty bushels. Groceries constitute the
principal trade. Amount of business annually
done with Atlanta, $103,000. Merchants are a’l
on good footing and prosperous.
Population-whites 1,200; blacks 1,300.
Forsyth has two flourishing schools. The
school buiidiugs are very large and imposing. The
Female College is the second oldest in the South,
and has yearly from 150 to 200 pupils. Has a
flourishing weekly paper— The Advertiser —
which is an honor to the State. Three churches—
Baptist, Methodist and Presbyteri n. A mineral
well has just been discovered, ihe waters of which
are very strongly Impregnated with sulphur, mag
nesia, soda, lime, etc.
Fcolish Habits Walking along the stieet
with the point ol an umbrella stickingont behind,
under the arm or over the shoulder. By suddenly
stopping to speak to a friend, or other cause, a
person walking in the rear had his brain penetra
ted through the eye, in the streets, and died a few
days ago.
To carry a long pencil in vest, or outside pock
et. Not lor g since a clerk in New York tell, and
the long pencil pierced an important artery that
had to be cut down from the shoulder to prevent
hia bleeding to death, with a three mouths’ ill
ness.
To take exercise or walk for the health, when
every step is a drag, and instinct urge* repo6e.
To guzz'e down a glass ot water on getting up
in the morning, without any fee ing of ‘hirst, un
der the impression o: health-giving nature of its
washing-out qualifies.
To sit dowa to a table and “force” yourself to
eat, when there is not ouly no appetite, but a de
cided aversion to food.
To take a glass of sodt, or toddy, or sangaree,
or mint-dropa on a summer day, under the belief
that it is safer and better than a glass of cold
water.
To persuade yourself that jou are destroying
one pleasant odor by introducing a stronger one ;
that Is, trying to sweeten your unwashed gar
ments and person by enveloping yourself iu mask
&c., the best perfume being a clean skin and
well washed clothing.
IX SEPTEMBER.
Feathery clouds are few and fair,
Thistledown is on the air;
Rippling suusbiue on the lake,
Wild scent ihe sunny brake;
Dizzy songs the crickets sing,
Wild bees wand-r mutmuring;
Batteifits float in a dream,
Over all the swal.ows gleam.
Here and yonder, high and low.
Golden rod and 6un-tl were glow ;
Here and there a maple flashes,
Sumach reddens, woodbine blushes;
Purple asters bloom and thrive,
1 am glad to be alive.
The Management if Children.— When re
wards are bestowed let the pride and pleasure In
them baas lasiicg as potsible; bat when once
punishment is ii flic td there let it end, taking
care to restore the culprit to favor upon the ear
liest manifestations of contrition and reform.
Never doubt the signs of repentance in a child;
better be deceived than to blight the germ of hon
or by distrust. The pupils of the Master of Rugby
were wont to declare that it was “a shame to tell
Arnold a lie, because—Le always believed a boy’s
simple worj!” and it is related of Dr. Nicholas
Brady that his pupils thought it. the greatest pun-
Lhment iu the world when he refused to speak to
them! Had thise two masters left on record
notbing more of their scholastic management
than these two anecdotes, they would yet have
doue a rich service to youth in the lessons thus
taught to educators.
The newspaper Is the p.oduct of vast labor and
thought. And yet, when you are face to face
with it, and it talks iD such an easy, natural way,
making itself completely at home with you, you
are prone to forget at what cost it has been
brought into life. It comes to you so quietly
and so smooth y, that you may well be pardoned
for tripping iuto the delusion that it springs into
voice and being—something like Minerva sprang
into .nil panoply from the brain of Jupiter— at
the mere touch of a magio wand. Turf, FiJdand
Farm.
Scandal. — The great curse ihat hangs ovtr
every small community is scandal, and a dispo l
iton among aome few to pick cp merest trifle# of
gosaip and inagni'y them into hideous deformi
ties. Some people have a peculiar faculty of ms
king themselves intolerable by excessive indul
gence in tbta busine.-s, and sometimes so wdl
succeed in injuring the reputation ot others that
even they themselves must recoil with horror at
the reflection. Be sure that yu are not one of
them.
