WEDNESDAI MORNING, JtTNE 25, 1573.
To Marry Early is Discreet anil
Wise.
And when men and women are of a
marriageable ago, I think it to be, in
general, true, that it is a wholesome
thing for them to be married. —lt is not
necessary that they should remain sin
gle because they stand in poverty; for
two can live cheaper than one, if they
live with co-operative zeal, if they liven
they ought to live. If the young man is
willing to seem poor when he is poor;
if the young woman, being poor, is will
ing to live poorly; if they are willing to
plant their lives together like two s ed
and wait for their growth, and look for
their abundance by and by, when they
have fairly earned it, then it i a good
thing for them to come early into part
nership. For characters adapt them
selves to each other in the early periods
of life far more easily than they do af
terwards. They who many early are
like vines growing together, and twining
round and round each other; whereas,
multitudes of thot who marry late in
life stand side by side like two iron col
umns, which, l>e ■ g separated at the be
ginning nevgr conn; any n arer to each
other. Many young men feel that tin y
cannot marry until they can upport a
wife; and by that they mean, until they
can support a house; y >., until they can
live in a house tha befits them; until
they can make a show; until they can
live as their kind of people, the da s to
which they belong, live for everyb •ly
belongs to a class, a si. When they
can do those things they will marry, but
not before. The result is they are cor
rupting life in the v, ry fountain. And
when they marry, tie . make a great
mistrke if they; ty, ‘‘We will not under
take to keep house; let us board, 'he n
we can have all tin; comforts of life: wo
will have all the app irate s p, e, i ! ,|
for us; and we jha.ll be relieved of
thousand cares.” There is no school
God ever Opem 1. or ] iil: and to be
opened, which you , 7 ; eoplo can • :
afford to avoid as the school of <•.
and responsibility and labor in the
household; and a scan. m. ;. , 1 w- •
man marrying, no matter from whai
source they come together, no matter
how high their fathers stool, one of
the most wholesome things they can do,
having married for love, and with dis
cretion, is to be willing to b. in at tin
bottom, and bear the bin and i, of lc urn
hold life so that they shall have it ed
ucation. I tell you, there an; ph asms
many \s
I would not give up the first two years
of my married life for all J have now.
I live in a big house, with a brown stone
front, and very f liiiy furnished; but, af
ter all, among the choicest experiences
of my life were those which I • passed
through in Indiana, when I hired two
chambers up-stairs; when my furniture
was given to me, and was second hand
at that; and when the very clothes
which I had on my back had been worn
by Judge Biroey before me. We were
not able to hire a servant. We liad to
serve ousselves. It was a study every
day how to get along with our small
means—and it was a study never to be
forgotten. I owe many of the pleas
ures which have run through my life to
being willing to begin where I had to
begin, and to fight poverty with 1< .•••,
and to overcome it. and to burn how to
live in service and helpfulness and in all
the thousand ingenuities which love
sweetens and makes more and more de
lightful.—Henry Ward Beecher.
The Southern Baptist Convention,
which recently closed its session at Mo
bile, unanimously approved of the re
moval of the Southern Baptist Theolog
ical Seminary, now located in Greenville,
<S'outh Carolina, t o Louisville, Kentucky.
The condition of its going to the latter
place is that Kentucky shall raise for it
$300,000, of which Louisville shall raise
one-third, and the other Southern Stat< ,
$200,000 more,making a total of $500,000

[From the Columbus (Miss.) ludex.
Tli e Try st .
BY JULIA BACON.
Under the houghs of a sycamore tree,
Where elamli red a blossoming vine,
Sat N Hie and 1 young lovers were we;
Her little brown hand, as soft as could be,
Was closely imprisoned in mine.
I trankly confess,
i fondly did press
The dear little hand, the beautiful hand,
That lovingly nestled in mine.
“Nellie, my darling, I’ve something to say
“Oh, John, there’s a bird in the vine,
*A ihooking-bird, John, he’s singing his lav !”
“Vi s, and he sines, q will love you alway,
i love, 1 adore you. Be mine.’ ”
’ [’was nothing amiss
It then 1 did Kiss
The soft dimpled hand, the olive brown hand,
That tremblingly rested in mine.
4'\ i i< n,” s id Nellie, “wh ! else docs b.- sing,
What words tVom his half open beak V”
“ ‘O, love me, my love, and happiness bring,
And wed me, my h>ve, this bright,balmy spriug,
As bright as the bloom on your cheek.’ ”
I think you. can guess
I warmly did press
Vy lips where tin' Mush, the rosy red blush,
Van mantling her \olvety cheek.
“J’.e quiet now, John, you dear, foolish boy !
No more will 1 meet you ut tryst."
As threatening she looked,yet winning and coy,
My heart gave a hound of infinite joy,
And twin the swi et maiden I kissed.
The ghost of a pout,
And smile play'd about
The coral red lips, the ripe cherry lips,
The innocent lips that L kissed.
Now, while we sit in our vine covered eot,
Sweet mem'ries around us still cling;
The sycamore tree can ne'er lie forgot,
The old plaee of trvst, a dear, hallowed spot.
Where v c heard the pay mocking-bird si eg.
And Nell is lay wife,
The pi ide of my life,
My- own nth ,\- ,1, my neat, dainty Nell,
And I—well, she calls me her king!

In an article of tlie greatest interest,
to American readers in the Edinburg
Review for April is the following de
scription of the interview between Gen.
Lee and Stonewall Jackson, during the
battle of the Chickuhomiuy; ‘NI few
minutes more, and the gallant soldier
himself app. ared on the scene and rode
up to greet Lee.cheered by Longstreet’s
men, already veterans enough in war to
understand what his coining meant. No
thing, it, h .s been said, of this first,
meeting of these great soldiers on the
battlefield could be in more striking
contrast than the appearance and man
ner of the t wo. Handsome in face and
iigun , finely mounted, a grai oful rider,
ealtn-visaged and carefully da ssod, Lee
presented the beau, ideal of the com
mander whose outward bearing always
captivated the soldier’s eye. His fa
mous lieutenant rode, apparently by
choice, an ill-groomed, rawboned horse,
and sat so short stirruped as to give
his figure the most awkward appearance.
An old cadet's cap, evidently a relic of
the college professorship he had not
long since left, was drawn over his eyes.
His coat was not only threadbare, but
ill-brushed, and his words were jerked
out in short, abrupt sentanees, between
which he sucked the lemon, which was,
as usual, his sole refreshment during
his day’s work. Yet each already un
di rslood the other, and valued him at
his true worth. “That is a heavy fire
down yonder,” said Lee, as the Federal
guns opened in reply to Jackson’s, “Can
your men stand it ?” “They can stand
almost anything. They can stand that,”
was the emphatic reply; and after a few
words of order ami explanation lie left
his chief to lead on the attack. This was
decisive, aided as it was by a fresh ad
vance of the troops before engaged.
The Fcdcrals wore turned, overmatched,
and driven from their position, and be
fore dark the shattered remains of Por
ter’s force were crossing the Chicka
hominy in hasty retreat. Lee’s first
battle, in fact, was a striking success,
and as well earned as any of the more
famous victories in after days, which
have been so widely studied and so of
ten extolled. No word henceforward
from his Government of any want of
confidence in his powers, or fear of his
over caution. From that hour he be
cai i the most ti nstt das well as lie;
most noted General of the Confederacy.
As to his soldiery, his hardy bearing,
tree self exposure, and constant pres
ence near their ranks, completed the in
fluence gained by that power of combin
ing their force to advantage, which they
instinctively felt without fully under
standing. From man to man flew the
story of the hour. The subtle influence
of sympathy which wins many hearts
for one, was never more rapidly exercis
\ ed. Like Napoleon his troops soon
i learned to believe him equal to any im
: mergency that, war could bring. Like
j Hannibal, he could speak lightly and
j calmly at the gravest moments being
; then himself less grave. Like Raglan,
he preserved a sweetness of temper that
no person or circumstances could ruffle.
“WHAT IS IT BUT A MAP OF BUSY LIFE, ITS FLUCTUATIONS AND ITS VAST CONCERNS.”
TALBOTTON, GA., WEDNESDAY JUNE 25, 1873.
Like Ciesar, ho mixed with tho crowd
of soldiery freely, and never feared that
his position would ho forgotten. Like
Blucher, his one recognized fault was
that which the soldier readily forgives
—a readiness to expose his life beyond
tlie proper limitations permitted by
modern war to the commander-in-cliief.
What wonder, then, if he thenceforward
commanded an army in which each man
would have died for him; an army from
which his parting wrung tears more bit
ter than any the fall of their cause could
extort; an anuv which followed him, af
ter three years of glorious vicissitudes,
into private life, without one thought of
further resistance again; t the fate to
which their adored chief yielded with
out a murmur.' 1

The following rare hit, by Max Ade
ler, is from the Saturday Evening Post:
We shall never forget that evening
w’e spent at Magruder’s years ago. We
admired Miss Mugruder, and we went
around to see her. It was summer
time and moonlight, and she sat upon
tho piazza. The carpenter had been
there that day glueing up tho rustic
chairs on the porch, so we took a seat
on the steps in front of Miss Magruder,
where we could gaze into her eyes and
drink in her smiles. It seems probable
that the carpenter must have upset his
glue-pot in the spot where we sat, for
after enjoying Miss Magruder’s remarks
for a couple of hours, and drinking sev
eral of her smiles, we tried to rise, for
the purpose of going home, but found
we were immovably fixed to the step.
Then Miss Magruder said: “Don’t be
in a hurry,” and wo told her wo wouldn’t.
The conversation had a sadder tone aft
er that, and we sat there thinking wheth
er it would be better to ask Miss Ma
gruder to withdraw while wo disrobed
and went home in Highland costume,or
whether w t o should urge her to warm up
the poker, or whether we should give
one terific' wrench and then ramble
down tho yard backward. About mid
night Miss Magruder yawned, and said
she believed she would go to bed.
Then we suddenly asked her if she
thought her father would have any ob
jections to lending us the front steps a
few days, because wo wanted to take
them home for a patem. AVe think
Miss Magruder must have entertained
doubts of our sanity, for she rushed in,
i called her father and screamed. Ma
gruder came down with,a double-bar
| reled gun. Then we explained the sit-
I uation in a whisper, and he procured a
j saw and cut off the piece of Htep to
j which we were attached. Then we went
! home wearing the patch, and before two
o’clock crushed out our love for Miss
Magruder. We never culled again, and
she threw herself away on a dry goods
man. There is a melancholy satisfac
tion in recalling these memories of
youth, and reflecting upon the influence
of glue upon the emotions of the hu
man heart.
