mHE MERITS OF.THIS
X ,Plow over others, for
the cultivation of both Cot-
ton and Corn are many, but I shall mention
only its leading merits: With four wings,
two small and two large,'it can be converted
Into Seven different Plows, all of which are
very necessary for the cultivation of dif
ferent' crops. And anothor very important
feature is durability. A. Plow completed
will last’s plan from two to five years,' accord
ing to the soil he cultivates, and will only
cost about Three Dollars to put it up. An
Agency will soon bo established in Rome,
and then planters will be invited to call and
see for themselves. Address,

the publio generally, that he continues
the practice of DENT18TR Y in all ita branch-

of McGuire A Pinson, where ho it prepared
to execute alloperations appertaining to Den
tistry, in the most approved manner.
He would also call the particular attention
of those in want of Artificial Work, to hjq su
perior style of teeth, set on gold plate; for
>eauty, strength and life-like appeaeonoe,
they are not surpassed. As an impression has
been made that my prices for dental oper~
tlons arc higher than tho uaual run ofD.
tlsts, I beg leave to say that they are the same
as charged by Dentists at Augnsta, Macon
and Savannah. For Artificial Work my char
ges arh as follows!
Entire Sots Upper and Lower from $i00 to $286
Half Sets, Upper or Lower, from 50 to 160
Temporary Sot*$ Upper and Lower, 26 each.

The troubled eyes of the speaker were
filled with tears. It was a lad that stood
at the outer door, pleading with a kind
ly looking woman, who still seemed
to dohbt tho reality of his good inten
tions.
Tho cottage stood by itself on a bleak
moor, or what in Scotland would have
been called such. The time was near
the latter end of September, and a fierce
wind rattled the boughs of the only two
naked trees near the house, and fled
with a shivering sound into the narrow
doorwa?, as if seeking, .for warmth at
the mazing fire within.
Now ana. then a snow flake touch
ed with its soft chill the check of the

hands. 4 , . ,
The woman was, evidently loath to
ant the,boy’s request; ana the pecu-
ir look stamped upon his features
would Rave suggested to any mind an
idea of depravity fer beyond, bp years.
Hut her woman’s heart, oould not
resist the sorrow - in those large, hut
by no means handsome gray eyes. .
“Come in, at any rate, till the,good
man comes home. There, sit down b-
the fire; you look perishing with cold,'
and she-drew.a rude chair up to. the war
mest corner; then suspiciously glanqing
attheohild from the corners of her
eyes, she oontinuea setting the. table for
supppr.
Presently came the tramp of heavy
shoes, the door was swung open with a
quick jerk, and the “good man” pres
ented himself wearied with labor. A
look of intelligence passed between his
wife and himself. l(e, too, scanned the
boy’s face with an expression not evinc
ing satisfaction, but;nevertholesa made
him come to the table, and then, enjoy-:
ed the zest with whioh. he dispatched
bis supper,
Day after day passed, and yet the poor
oy begged to bo kept “only till to-mor
row/' So the good people after due
consideration, concluded that so long
os he was so docile and worked eo hear
tily they would retain him.
One day in the middle of the winter,
a peddler, long accustomed to trade at
the cottage, made his appearance and
disposed of his goods readily, as if he
l been waited for. . . .
. 'You haye a bOy out there splitting
wood, I see,” ,ho said, pointing to the
y “Yes; do you know him?”
“I have seen him,” replied the ped
dler evasively. ' .
“And.where? Who is he? What is
he?" !
“A jail-bird;” and the peddler swung
his-paok over his shoulder. “That boy
young ns he looks, I saw in court myself
and heard his sentence. ‘Ten months.'
He’sahardone; you’d do well to look
carefully after him." .
01 there was something so horrible in
the word “jail/' the poor woman trem
bled as she laid away her purchases;
nor could she be easy till she liad called
the boy in, and assured . him that she
knew that dark part of bis history.
Ashamed; distressed, the child hung
down his head; his cheeks seemed burs
ting with hot blood ; his lips quivered,
end anguish was painted as] vividly on
bis forehead as if the words were brand-
infthisflesh. •
“Well,” he muttered, his whole frame
relaxing, «sif-& burden-had suddenly
rolled off, “I may as well go to . ruin at
anoe; there’s no use in trying to do
better; everybody hates and despises
me; nobody cores about me; .1 may as
well go to ruin at once.".
‘‘Tell me,”, said tho woman, who
stood off far enough for flight if that
should be necessary, “how came yon
to go so young to that dreadful
place? Where was your mother—
where?”

Houston on Vlatfoms and Pettier
In advance of the meeting of tier
Charleston Convention, Gen. Sciifi. llout'
ton has written for publication a' letter
in which he declares .ofl' from that as
sembly, and lays down his own ideas of
Presidential nominations. His’ theory
is positively beautiful, and he expounds'
it with a single-hearted fervor, whidb
ought to show how remote he ie from all
share in the political wickedness ef ihm
degenerate age. Conventions havir be
come, in his view of them, the engines
of crafty politician*,. Who, stndor the
pretence of giving expression to the
pop will, design and manage so as
io.control it. Platforms are the special
horror of the Genera}. They ore am
biguities, prest up for the purpose ®f
gulling the people in diflerent sections,
with opposite constructions. Nor is he
any ‘ letter pleased . With platforms
which declared opinions not to be mis
taken anywhere. This makes a creed
of “orthaoxy to which all must submit
or be proscribed.” Ambignity.is fraud,
and directness is tyrntmy. To compro
mise any opinions or measures, in order
to secure a union of action, upon one
candidate, is an unmitigated evil, which
is preparing the way to demoralise 4hw
people and ruin the republic. To ah'
clare any principles, and requh-e adhe
rence to them, is to create n party, arid
make the President elect the candid
ate and representative of a party: and
this is making a tool and not an Xxecak
tive, and this is also a forerunner of
public decay. With principles arid
without principles, Conventions are the
abominations, and platforms and par
ties are the bane of the counter, '
