Clerks Must Work.
The big men at Washington. who
bo& government affairs seem to have
nh JC' to business when thev are
f'ODsbiering the rights of their paid
clerk*. Through the press reports
wo learn that a* a Cabinet meeting
just prior lo Christmas, it nn- decided
that the public business was so ur
gent its that it would prove detrimen
tal to its interest to allow the depart
ment clerks a half holiday during
Christmas. Vet the sequel shows that
some of the bosses themselves packed
t'reir trunks and left for a few hoii
6y'n recreation. But it is to be
presumed that these governmental
heads are over worked and there
fore need rest.

The Right Place.
The following suggestions from
the National Stockman and Farmer
are so pertinent and so applicable to
the present when our farmers are
planing for another crop, that we
give them apace for the benefit ol
mtr readers.
The line herein Indicated is the
one we have for a long time, and to
the host of our abiltv, advocated and
which if closely followed up by our
people generally will lead to far
(letter agricultural results than have
hitherto obtained among us:
Intensive farming might lie prae
t’e and more extensively witlu ut de
triment to the agricultural interests
of this country. There is too great
a tendency to farm too much land
and spread over two acres the work
ami manure necessary for one. Such
a system gradually deteriorates the
soil and leads to its impoverishment.
Intensive farming, on the other
hand, seeks to have each acre bet
ter, after each crop is taken off, than
it was before. The one necessarily
leads to small farms, well cultivated,
which is the index of flourishing ag
riculture, and the other leads to
large farms, broken down fences and
neglected land, and is the bane of
Hucceesftil tillage of the soil. Far
mors need to learn to concentrate
their energies, time, intelligence,
labor, etc., upon a few acres, and
make these produce more than ever
before, instead of spreading their
labor over so much surface
that none of it can be made
to produce its full quota. All
these things have a tendency to tell
upon the flourishing condition of
this great industry. The corning in
crease of population will gradually
make intensive farming necessary,
in order to* support the teeming
millions who will yet thrive upon
our soil. . yi

Proctor Houser, wo found ourselves
onscouneed m most comfortable
quarters and in the midst of a com
pany of ladies, with no other male
to aid us in entertaining them or
had circumstances demanded, in de
fending ourselves. But indications
soon satisfied us that we were in the
company of friends and that danger,
if existing, was in the distance. Just
then, there appeared upon Uic scene
the veritable and übiquitous ‘-out
door" man of the Telegraph whom
we have claimed as our friend from
boy-hood and of course wo felt
doubly secure amid our harmless
surroundings.
One part ot the programme for
the occasion wo found to boa quilt
distribution. The six quilts presen
ted for inspection were of the
“Bog Cabin' design, splendidly fin
ished, and composed of pokes ot silk
and worsted. These quilts, inten
ded as new year mementos for her
children, were the resultants of the
industry and labors ot Mrs. W. 11.
Head, who is a lady of elegant lei
sure. They were allotted in accor
dance- with the legal process of dis
tributing in kind.
Mesdames Proctor, Ford, Smith,
Simmons, Poe and Leary were selec
ted by -Mrs. Head to represent the
children. A number was placed
upon each quilt, and corresponding
numbers placed m a hat. The draw
ing by the representatives was had
under aunervßion of this deponent
and the Telegraph man, who is -par
excellence at other things than so
Uniting subscribers for the popular
Telegraph.
This done, the party were invited
Jo repair to mat elegant dining hall
of the Proctor lions*, which had
been kindlv tendered by “Mine Host
and Hostess" for the occasion where
we found numerous gleeful children
and juveniles, who were also guests
of the occasion, in the very sweet
ness of- long drawn candy" and a
table for the senior guests, laden
with delicacies which had been
.provided by Mrs. ilea ', kindly as
sisted by the Misses Proctor who
know precisely how to prepare
those things which make a table in
viting. Of course our readers will
take it for granted that justice was
done, especially by the newspaper
men, the feast that had been spread.
Owing to the absence of his bet
ter half the “Telegraph man” here
again displayed his special fitness for
emergences by performing in good
style the part ot gallant to a charm

fcmd attention at the festal board
which this class justly deserves.

Napolion said of -Murat, that he
was “weak m council, but mighty in
the field which was equivolent to
saying that Murat lacked ability to
conceive plans for military opera
tions, hut when these plans were
properly marked out to him. he was
powerful in executing them success
fully.
So it has been in every age of the
world. Some men are gifted by na
ture with great executive ability, but
they lack ability to conceive proper
plans to inaugurate wholesome revo
lution.
\N hen McClellan was before Rich
mond in 1X62. lie constructed forti
fications and on these fortifications
be placed huge guns, and under
cover ol these fie constructed other
fortifications, and placed guns on
these also. In this way he moved
steadi ly on Richmond, until the city
was nearly within reach of thff shells
from his guns. Just then Lee’s abil
ity to conceive proper plans showd
itself. He directed Stonewall Jack
son to get in McClellan's rear. Jack
sou like Murrat, was powerful as an
executive officer. lie got in the
rear of little Me. anti soon had him
on the trot to Turkey Bond on the
Janies River; nor did ho stand on the
order of his going but went with
rapidity to his gun boats, and coun
ted himself fortunate in escaping to
tal annihilation, for Jackson was
making things lively in Mc.’s rear.
Now here is where organization
is formidable. With men like Lee
and Napoleon to plan in council, and
executive men like Murat and Jack
son to execute, wonders can be ac
compli.bed.
'1 he various talents of men are
brought to bear in this way.
Nearly two thousand years ago, it
was written, that men who had the
power to prophesy, should prophesy
and men who had power to interprit,
should interprit and men who had
power tocommunicteor teach, should
teach. In this way the talents of all
are utilized.
Now farming is no exception to
this general rule. It is a great mis
take to suppose that no men, besides
those who are successful farmers,
can conceive proper plans for far
mers relief in emergencies. Nature
is not so prodigal of her gifts, as to
bestow all ot them on one man. It
was not the plans and counsels of
the mighty' captains in the rebellion,
that the king of the Hebrews feared,
but the counsel of Ahithophel. So
the king sent Husliai to defeat his
counsels.
Howard was not a successful

interest of
man in Georgia. I’clft

tial to carry out his plan^^^^WHP
ability to conceive proper plans, but
lacked executive ability to carry
them out. As farmers, let us util
ize the talents of all. Let the man,
who is powerful to give counsel,
plan, and let those who are power
ful to execute carry out those plans,
anti just as surely as the sun rises in
the east and sets in the west, just so
surely will the larmers oat of
their apparently almost helpless
condition. Help must come from
within and not from without.
Some are looking to men from
the north or west or from Europe to
come in and develope the resources
of our land. \Ve!l, what good will
that do the men to the manorborn ?
Did not the white men come to this
fertile region ot Georgia, cut down
the forests and make the howling
wilderness to bloom and blossom as
the rose? But what good did that
do the poor Indian who was already
here? It made him homeless: you
in bring thrifty and money making
men to this community and they will
thrive, but the chances are that we
will be driven to the wall on the Dar
winian theory of the survival of the
thest or strongest.
It is a law of nature for those who
are strong to absorb and crush out
those who are weak. Big fish eat
and fatten on small fish.
This foreign element may devel
ope the resources of this land, but
while they are doing this, we anti
our sons will become the “hewers of
wood and drawers of water" for
these people. The thing for us to
consider is. how to develope the re
sources ot this country ourselves.
Indeed we ought to be ashamed to
call in help. Let us bring to bear
our own manhood and courage.
When we do this, then, and uot till
then, will we move forward.
If good men come in from abroad,
let us welcome them, but by all
means let us not look to these stran
gers to develope our resources; on
the contrary, let us who were born
in the sunny south, build up the
south. We would be lacking in
manhood to acknowledge our ina
bility to do this by calling in help
from abroad.
Much is being written on the
subject of a closer connection be
tween this country and Mexico.
They say our people will build rail
roads and open and work the mines
ot that country.
This is true enough, but just as
surely as that the erternal God rules
in the Heavens, just so surely will
the anglo-Amerieans rule the Mexi
cans. In Mexico the people of the
j L'nited States are called Americans.
Well, closer political and commer
cial relations with Mexico, will re
sult in making the native Mexicans
suborninate to the Americans. It
will be a good tiling for Americans,
but a poor thing for Mexicans. What
was sport to the boys was death to
the frogs.
Some nations are gifted with
what phenologists call accumulative
talent. This talent bus no regard
to learning or brilliancy of intellect,
but often very stupid minds accumu
late huge fortunes. It is more in
stinct than talent. Sam slick said
“a man of one idea often dies rich,
while a man of many ideas may die
poor. The Hebrews have always
been distinguished fir their accumu
lative talent. Look at the Hebrew
slave sold into Egypt. How soon he
owned the barns and their contents,
and then the lands and finally the
i people.
r Look at Mr. Benjamin, who fled to
England after the overthrow of tne
confederacy. How soon he amassed
a fortune 0f5600,000. They have been
persecuted by every nation under
Heaven, yet how soon they got rich,
when they have a foot ho and
The negro, as a race, has but lit -
| tie accumulative talent, but if he
bad that of the Germans or French,
they would have owned, by this
I Lime, most of the lands of this coun
i try. The negso was accustomed to
wear jeans and osnaburgs and to eat
hog meat and corn bread ; was used
to hardships and work, while the
white men were, for the most part,
’ brought up in idleness and aceus
! tomed to high living. If we intro
i duee a thrifty, working and money
| class, such as tiie Germans as labor-
I era, they will soon own our lands
■ and in less than three decades they
I will have our sons employed as la
borers to cultivate these fields. Then
will the waste places bloom, but it
will not help us or onr children.
Those who are financially strong
will always absorb those who are fi
nancially weak. Education and in
tellect has nothing to do in such
matters. Look at President Monroe
who died in New York, homeless
and houseless and penniless, yet he
was one of our greatest statesman.
How much lias been said of the
Monroe doctrine! Yet bis great
talents did not enable him to make
and hold money. Not many years
after be died, a porter, who was em
ployed at Barnum’s hotel in Balti
more died worth §50,000.
Twenty years ago when cotton
sold for 35 to 40 cents per pound,
the people of Middle Georgia imag
ined that with mules and free ne
groes, they would Aon reach the ,
long looked for Eldorado, working
land year after year in clean crops.

riches ? Have you made any prog
ress? On the contrary have you
not clawfished ? As men of com
mon sense, shall we keep clawfish
ing, or shall we order a hault and
reverse the engine? To explain,
suppose a man were to meet a squad
of men traveling westward and he
should inquire of these men where
they were going and they were to
reply they were on their way to Sa
vannah, would they over reach Sa
vannah traveling westward? Com
mon sense teaches us that they
would have to halt and change their
course or they would not reach their
destination. So it is with us farm
ers. If we continue in the direction
wo have been going for twenty*
years we will never reach the El
Dorado of our hopes. A change
must be made, but what shall that
change be? There is the rub.
Doctors disagree.
Friend Woodall of Barnesville i
' wants to organize “working bri
grades." Hear him in the Gazette
|of December 24th. “I wish for once
in my life 1 was a good organizer, I
: would organize “working brigades"
: all over tiie south. I would uni
| form them in calico and jeans with
trimings to suit. I would arm them
with needles, axes, plows, hoes &c., ;
| I would want all ot both sexes from
; ten to seventy years. With this
force all in the field “for the war,"
| debt, that foul invader of our happi
ness and homes, and of even our pil
; lows and dreams, would be driven
! from our borders." A few weeks I
ago our Bolingbroke philosopher ad- ;
; vised the farmers to go into caves
and eat roots. This also appeared
in the Gazette.
Now let us see how this will work. |
Just 2791 years ago a poor Tishbite
went into a cave in one ot the moun- !
tains of Arabia ; but he had not oeen
there long before a voice was heard
:in the mouth of the cave saving, ]
i “What doest thou here Elijah?” Sup- i
pose thni our Bolingbroke pailoso- ’
pher should take unto himself much
roots and go into his cave ; how long I
does he suppose he will be allowed to .
sit back on his dignity and eat roots, |
: like a man or elegant leisure?
j For when it shall be noised abroad
in the land that Proff. Woodall's j
! “working brigades" from the land of j
Pike are marching on Forsyth to j
equip themselves with a goodly lyim- j
her of Joe Brown's and Ralph
Bank's confederate war pikes, and
have done so. how long will it be
before they will be marching in the j
direction of Bolingbroke? Then |
will history repeat itself and a voice
will be heard in the mouth of the
cave of our philosopher saying;
“ W hat doest thou here Elijah ?" No
my friend ; there is a work for you
to do in this great agricultural revo
lution. If you have not the execu
tive power of a Murat, perhaps you
may prove to be a modern Ahithop
hel in counsel. And here in conclu
sion let me reiterate what I have al- j
ready said: that help must come
from within and not from without.

OUR ATLANTA LETTER.
Editor Advertiser.
Arp, the Cherokee Philosopher,
wisely and wittily remarks that
“old Anno Domini will tell." We
need no effort to remind us that we
are growing old. Here we are on
the threshold of anew year, not
knowing what of good or ill shall
befall us before its weeks ami months
are over past. But we shall not in
flict a homily on your readers.
Peachtree street was ablaze last
night with the glow of new years
festivities. By what magic this
handsome thoroughfare has contriv
, ed to secure a monopoly of fashion*
able displays can not be readily ex
plained. Capitol Avenue, Washing
ton and Marietta streets, are adorned
with beautiful residences, occupied
by many of our most prominent
citizens, but in the matter of society
sensation tncy are notably outstrip
ped. It is shrewdly suspected that;
Peachtree is snobbish beyond any
other quarter of this bustling me
tropolis. You remember Gold move,
the East India Director in “Thack
eray's Book of Snobs," and that “el
derly fairy” Mrs. Panto first cousin
to Lord Rubadub. These historical
snobs can be easily duplicated by*
the fashionable drive of the Gate
City. Men who disdain “to shake*
the hand that wears a Berlin glove”
and women beflounced and bejewel
ed who “trot out” stale French
phrases with an air insufferably dis
gusting to persons of real culture.
Of course there are numerous hon
orable exceptions, but these are in a
clear minority. The truth is that
Atlanta is as yet in a chrysallis state
as to art, literature and all tnat.
In business matters and methods she
is no laggard. It is simply a ques
tion of time when she will become
the political, commercial and manu
facturing center of the south Atlan
tic slope. An important factor in
her developement is her persistent
self-assertion. Just now she claims
to have a bona fide Artesian well,
and yet the water is lifted by a 20
horse power engine. In defense of
of this statement she snubs Dr.
White, the state chemist, and indul
ges in a sneer at Le Conte the emi
nent geologist. All of this indicates
that Atlanta has back-bone, that
sort of pluck that will win in the
battle of life.
After all Georgia is proud of her
capitol city. If t’ou will place your
self on the Norcross corner, you
will see in the course of an hour, a
large percentage of the ropresensa
tative men of the state. It is won
derful how wealth, population, in
tellect and nearly all else are con
verging to the junction of Peach
tree and Marietta streets. Atlanta
recognizes her day of visitatim and
is working with a will to nnrke the
Best ot her opportunity.

Hr The effort to boycott this en-
journal is likely to prove
failure. It has a permamint
foothold and will live to
its centennial year.
The Journal is achieving jnerited
success as an evening paper. Col.
Hubncr, the editor in chief, jp a
safe man and ho is well supplied
by a staff of ready writers, ahe
same may be said ot the Capifol, and
its able editorial corps.
Sam Small had favorable weather
for his lecture on “The Social Thug”
and his audience was greatly de
lighted. By the way his friends are
deep]}* interested in his evangelistic
career, lie is indeed “a brand
snatched from the burning,” and
thousands of prayers are offered in
his behalf. Whether he and Sam
Jones will be able to conquer Cincin
natti for Christ is a problem for our
wisest thinkers. The powers of
darkness are strongly entrenched
and it will require thorough unity
amongst the churches to dislodge and
defeat the enemy. We bid them
God speed. Kivaldo.
What is the Cause ?
The bursting ot steam boilers
which is usually attended with great
er or less destruction of life and
property, has. become so common as
to lead to enquiries for the cause of
the same, is it because they are
being made of inferior material ? or
is it owing to carelessness upon the
part of those who build them. It
can result from the want of proper
attention upon the part of those
who are or may be ir. charge of,
them. There is certainly a cause
and a proper remedy, if possible,
should be applied.
