The summer rose the sun has flushed With crimson glory may be sweet— ’Tis sweeter when its leaves are crushed Beneath the winds’and tempest® feet. The rose thafwaves upon its tree, In life, sheds perfume all around— More sweet the perfume floats to me Of rotes trampled on the ground. The wavering rose, with every breath Scents, carelessly, the summer air— Thu wounded rose bleeds forth in death A sweetness far more rich and rare. It is a truth beyond our ken. And yefra truth that all may read— It is with roses as with men: The sweetest hearts are those that Llccd. The flower which Bethlehem saw bloom Out ot a heart all full of grace, Gave never forth its full perfume Until the cross became its base. TOUCHING LETTER. Dear Sarah: Darling John Is.dcad! My heart is very sore; I have the sweetest mourning suit, Just come from Stewart's store. Ah! well our loss is but his gain- insurance covers all— No more I hear his touching voice, Ilis footsteps in the hall. Mv dress is trimmed with real lace, We had four doctors here: They called it softening of the brain; My bounet is a dear. I know your empathy is mine; My heart string is'almost broke ‘Dear wife, my fortuuc will be vours,’ Were the last woids lie spoke. I wear my hair done “Pompadour, 1 And so do all the “ton,” Upon his tomb these words shall be, “IIic jacet, dearest John.” I’ve kept a lock of precious hair, His bank-books and the will, By which he left me all his wealth, In railroad, bank and mill. There's a balm in Gilead, I know, Ami 1 may And relief; Please send the latest fashions to Your friend in deepest grief. ONLY A VIOLET. It is only a violet, faded and old, That has quietly slipped from the let ter I hold. But it whispers of something I used to know, When somebody placed it there long ago- • When the letter was sent with its freight of love. While an earnest prayer went up above, And I, in a busy city, fur away; Was loving her always, night and day. But that was so very long ago, And time works ebauges, as we all know; It may be she has forgotten quite The loving words that she used to write, But this poor little flower is plcadin; here the past, and the things that once were dear, And the love iu my heart, like the vio let's breath, Though crushed and forgotten, can ’er know death.

A very touching ease of mental al ienation iu a charming young lady is described by ft careful observer. Not long ago her mother fonnd her in her room, energetically darning stockings, and soon after 6he appeared in tli kitchen and Assisted that wonderin, dame in making and baking bread il pastry. Alatmcd by these fear- sigtii pf intellectual disorder her fond parents lmuioai&tjy gpnt f or a skiliful physician, viio watched her through a key-hole while she sewed buttons on her father's gaiments and mended those of her little brother.— Much affected the vcncrabic jnau re marked th.it never, during n medical practice of twenty-live years, l.ad he kuown any young person to manifest such symptoms as these. The most heartrending pka;e of all, however, was shown the other day. when her kind father, with a faint hope ot arousing her from her sad stale, gave her t’.yo hundred dollars and told her to buy a new area*.— Alas! *t\vas useless. She instantly observed that she didn't need a new dress, aud if bo would let her keep twenty-five dollars to pay a pner wid- rcut, she'd much rather he would take the rest of the money for himself. few ruomeuts that gricf-strick- en old gentleman gazed upon his hap- child, then hiding his face r mut tered between bis sobs: “ Her mind is gone! Her mind is gouc!” What a pity so few lose their minds that way. • ■ *♦« * Avocations or Women.—The fol lowing notes of avocations followed by women in the United states, taken from the last census returns, give a curious exhibit of the extent to which oman is now invading provinces of industry which ouce were supposed to belong exclusively to the other sex: Agricultural laborers, 373,33*2; stock- herders and stock raisers, 75; architect 1; auctioneers, 32; barbers and hair dressers, 1,179; clergy 07; dentists, 24; hostlers, 2; hunters and trappers, 2; lawyers, Si livery stables keepers, 11; midwives. 1.186; physicians. 525; scav engers, 2; sculptors. 4; teachers, £4,- 147; whitewashes, 391; bankers and brokers. 15; barkeepers, 70; boat- hands, .*10; canal boat hands, 10; drav- drivers, teamsters. &c.. 196; newspa per carriers, 7; pilot, 1; undertakers, 20; bell foundry operatives, 4; car riage trimmers, 32; charcoal and lime burners. 5; cigar makers, 1^44; clock makers, 75; curriers aod tanners, 60; distillers, 6; engravers, 29; Others, 35: gas-works employees. 4; gun and lock smiths, 33; printers VI76; shingle and lath makers, &4; tinners, 17; wood turners ana egrvers. 44. [From the Louisville Courier-Journal.] Old “Rough and Ready." The Burial Place of Zachary Taylor.' 04 4g Between five and six miles from tHt city, on an obscure neighborhood road a quarter of a mile from the Browns^ boro road, rest the remains of the twelth President of the United States —Zachary Taylor—whose name waa upon all lips, and whose praises sound-' cd from one end of the country to the other. The grave is the northeast corner d! the Taylor farm, and it is mortifying to relate that it if in a sadlv neglected condition — under brush weeds and ailantus trees rendering it very diflicull of access. No monu ment has ever been erected to Gen. Taylor’s memory. The remains lie there in a plain vault built in the side ot a bill, with a marble slab over the door bearing the inscription: : ’ * z! TAYLOR, ’ : : Born Nov. 24, 1784. : . : Died July 9,1850. ! The service rendered by this brave, good natnred old soluier, deserve mon umental recognition. A gentleman who recently visited tlic grave said to a reporter of this paper: As I stood there with head uncovered, ray mind 1 everted to boyhood days, and I re membered a solemn furneral cortege at Philadelpbi, the city in mourniug, public buildiugs and private residences draped in black, a hush all over the city, sadness depicted in every face, for «rcat brave, old Gen. Taylor was dead. The whole nation iu fact mourn ed his loss. Twenty-three years after this I find myself at his grave near Louisville, and am impressed with the fact that the nations dead arc soon forgotten. • The place does indeed appear for- gotlon. A stoue wall encloses the lit tle grave-yard, and a rusty and used iron gate trowns upon the visitor. It evidently has not been opened for years. Col. Richard Taylor is buried to the right of Gen. Taylor. An obe- Hsk, eighteen feet high, is erected over his grave, bearing the inscription; “Col. Richard Taylor, a soldier of the Revolutionary war, and a native 01 Orange couuty, Virginia; born April 3,1744; died Jan. 19 1829. Col. Taylor came to this State while his son Zachary; was an infaut, and settled on the plantation where he is now buried. Thomasi'ille—Her Colleges— The South Georgia Fair. We had the pleasure, on Friday the 12th, of spending a few hours pleasant little city ol Thomasville ; where it was our pleasure to make the acquaintance of Col. W. J. Young, ol the Young Female College, and O. D. •Scott, ol the Fletcher Male Institute, both of whom are very pleasant and interesting gentlemen, and well worthy the high positions they occupy. These gentlemen informed us that their re spective institutions were in a prosper ous condition, and only lack a little more material, of which this county has much, and of which we should supply to our home institutions ; and as 'ihoinasvillc is comparatively at door, we see no good reason why she should not reasonably expect much support from Mitchell county, both for her male and female Colleges. We also had a short interview with Col. A. 1*. Wright, president ot the South Georgia fair, who is satisfied of the most brilliaut success at the ap proaching Fair, with winch the ellbrts of the people interested iu the Fair, have ever met, Our pconic should remember that the South Georgia Fair is not a coun ty matter, that the citizens of Thomas county are not alone iulerested in the grand enterprise, but that wc should feel quite au interest in the success of the Fair, aud should take an active part. Caunot, will not many of our people bestir themselves, and compete for sonic of the many magnificent prizes come oil’on the 4th of November next? Wc hope to hear of some of our Mitch ell people bearing otT the palm. \V 1 predict for Thomasville a bright fu tuic, and it will all ha Qyyius to the en (crprisc of her citizens and those ster ling journals, the Times and Enter prise published in that city; lor noth ing will more enhance the interest of any people tii.yn $ well conducted pa per,. of which Thomasvillocau boast two." Besides good nowspapers, she can boast of one of the best Job Offices in South Western Ga., that of the Times’ connected with these two ex cellent weekly (tapers. TiiOfaasy;ll? has good churches, and two excellent institution* of learning. of which we have before spokca; aud wc see no reasonable grounds why she should not become one of the most important interior cities in Georgia. - Camilki Entcr^nii^ A Grateful Editor. The editor of the Philadelphia Dis patch has been made tbe happy re cipient of some interesting reading matter, and he very properly expresses his thanks thusly:* We owe our thanks to Judge Kelley for the last Patent office report. We already’ have sixteen hundred of these interesting volumes in our little libra- _ but trey have been read and re read so many times, that we know ev ery page of them by heart. This new volume came opportunely and grate fully on Christmas morning, aud that night we gathered our little family around the lire and read it through to them. Tbe affected tale, entitled "Im provement in Monkey Wrenches,*’ seemed to touch every heart, and we came to the climax ot the little story about the “Reversible Pie-boards'* there was not a dry eye between the front door and tbe stable. During tbc reading of the piteous narrative enti tled “Gum Washers for Carriage Axles,” the whole family gave expres sion to boisterous emotion, aou tbe hired girl was so much excited that she lost her presence of miud, and went around to her mother’s inadvert ently with six pounds of totter and a kettle full of dour, and cam* home at midnight intoxicated. We can never sufficiently thank Mr. Kelly for inno cent enjoyment thus furnished us.— The memory of that evening will lin ger in our minds very much longer lhau the hired girl ever lingers, when she lights on a lot of substances which she thinks will suit the constitution of her aged parent*: The editor of the Baltimore Gazette after years of experience, says: “A woman it like tar; only melt tier and •he will take any form you please.” Editor Constitution ; I am tdld that during my absence, an article was transferred to 'your columns, re flecting upon the University Publish ing Company, aud paid for by a rival enterprise. Of the allusions to myself I shall take no notice. 1 have something to say, however, of this compauy with which I au associated, anil as you have, unintentionally, doubtless, doue the long list of Southern gentlemen interested in this company the wrong of giving circulation to such an article, I trust you will perceive the justice ot making equally public tbc statements I mve below: First—This movement has been in dorsed by our people, from Gen. Lee down, with a unanimity and an ethu- siasm never before equaled probably, save by that created by the war. it would be strange if it were otherwise. Second—The stockholders number at present. I believe, 300. Ot these all are representative men of the South, except thirteen ; and among these thirteen are Cyrus U. McCormick, a Virginian, now ot New York, who 60 liberally endowed General Lee's college, and several others of South ern birth and education. Atnoug the 300 Southern stockholders are ex- Piesideut Davis, Gen. Joseph E. John ston, Gen. Beauregard, Gen. Ewell, Gen. Hood, Gen. Hays, Gen. Buckuer, Goo. Tayloi, Gen. Lee, eldest son of R. E. Lee. Gen. Lawton, Gen. Gilmer, Gen. Colquitt, Gen. Wilcox, Gen. Bate, Gen. John C. Brown, Gov ernor elect of Tennessee, Generals Maney, Polk, Sorrel, Clanton, Mr. Sodden, late Secretary of War of the Confederate States, and many of the most prominent ex-Governors and Governors of the South, liishops. Rail road and Bank Presidents, clergy, teachers, Icadiug planter*, merchants, Lawyers, physicians, &c. Third—The object of the organiza tion is to lid the South of the school books which are obnoxious to South ern sentiment, aud to furnish, as it lias succeeded in doing, books of the high est merit Fourth—The authors of tho hooks, are Profs. Jolm and Joseph LcContc, formerly of the University of Georgia and South Carolina; Col, Richard Johnson, oue of Georgia's most dis tinguished teachers, now at the head of Penn Lucy Institute, near Balti more; Col. Charles Venable. Profess or of Mathematics in the University of Virginia, and during the war Gen Lee’s staff officer; Prof Qilderslccve, Professor of Greek in the University of Virginia, and who during the war was severely wounded while serving uj>on my stafft Dr. Holmes, of the University of Virginia, Protcsoor ot Literature and History; Prof. Sachtlc- ben, of the University of South Caro lina, aud Com.

So much for its status as aSputhern institution. The company owns no publishing house, no presses or binding establish ment. I» prints and binds by contract the work being done wherever it is done cheapest und best. As the lowest bids are made by New York, and that city furnishes superior facilities to any other, the books arc printed ant! bound ilierc at pocsent, as are nearly all our Southern books. L is the purpose of the company ntually to build up its own publish- house 12 some .Southern city, which is to be done as soon as practicable; but it would requite, to do this ou a scale to meet the demand already cre ated for these hooks, a vast amount of capital, eudanger the success of the enterprise, and make the books Itiyhcr priced. True political economy, as well as patroilism, demand that the books be published so as to make them cheapest for the thousands of the Southern children who consume them. They are tho many - the manufactu rers are the few. The true interests, therefore, of the company, and of the country so far as the couutry U Interes ted in, it is to continue for the piescnt, the contract plan of publishing. These arc the facts as to the compa ny, its stockholders, its pur|M>ses, books authors, mode of publication, etc. and these are made public only in answer to attacks made upon it. Tbu compa : ny prefers to co-oporate with all sirni* liar efforts, and it put iu collision with such, it will be only in defense. Its success is without a parallel in this country, the hearts ot the people are iu it, and public atteution cannot be diverted from the patriotic purpo ses in view by attacks, upon individu als or the place of publishing. The books their effect upon the minds and hearts and. characters of Southern childrep—this i; t^c great question. The efforts to raise other ic*ues aie puerile, weak and frivolous. As well oppose upon similiar grounds, the works of John C. Calhoun or the great history of Alexander H. Stephens. Respectfully, ‘ John U. Gordon.

The *tory made a deep inipres- npon her, and when she started the fire that noon, she put a pair of rubbers among the wood. Then she tied a handkerchief across her nose and went on with her work. When the husband reached the gate, he E auscd, fetched a sniff that made a ole in the atmosphere, and then went around to the back ot the house, and fetched another sniff that had equally as damaging an effect ou the atmos phere. lie started into the next yard and up at his own house, and felt in his own house, and felt in his pockets, aud was about to go around to the front again, when his wife thrust her head out of the window aud said, “ Why don’t you comc in the house, you old fool ? Come in and get your icr, and let me read an article to you from the Christian Sanitary, you old rip. Ccme in and *ce how nice it is to get dinner with nothing to burn but rubbers, you whited sepulchre.— Come in here, I tell you, befojc 1 lose mv temper, and aay wbat I ooglra't to.” At this invitation he went in, going upon the stoop and to the doo*- very slowly, but on opening the door disappeared intide with marvelous suddenness, "lhc neighbors say he was cutting wood all that afternoon, and thinking of tijc religions press. The Difference between a country and a city greenhorn is, that one would like to know en other thinks he can A Married Man Tries to Carry Two Wash Tubs, a Wash- Board and a Wash-Stand at Once. There is an important difference in Monday among those families who do their own washing. The way of ob serving it is very similar. The first thing is to get the man up au * hour earlier tbau usual to get dowu the boiler. We don't understand why a boiler is kept on the shelf where no body but himself can reach it. But perhaps it is not intended we should understand it. Having got down the boiler aud token his place at the table, and pronounced grace with a benevo lent aspect, he is called into the kitch en again to lift the boiler on the stove. He finds it lull ot water aud weighing about three-quarters of a ton, but he siuks bis teeth into his lips, lays his eves out ou his checks, and accom plishes the task. Alter breakfast, which is eaten hastily, and front a ta ble that is garnished with a bar of soap, a package ofstarch.and a bluing bag, he is seut dowu to the cellar tiller the tubs, wash-board, bench, etc. lie puts both tubs together aud the wash board inside, with a view to avoid coining down stairs again although be has beeu for years giving practical de monstration that those things can't be carried at one time. But ho grasps the insido of the tubs with oue arm and starts for the stairs. No one who has not tried it can begin to under stand the amount of circumspection required to engineer a wash-tub and wash-bench up the same stairway at the same time. lie kuows it, but there is an undyiugdiopc iu his breast that there is a way to accomplish it aud he starts. Before reaching the stairs the tubs slide around and board slips out. He thinks at first that he will put his heel on it and split it in two, but changes his mind, sets down tbc things, and replaces the board. Then he starts again, and wheu he has got as tar up the stairway as he can with out proceeding sideways, he turus the tubs to the frout, but as bis hold ou them had been gradually yielding all the while, he fiuds they are so low they strike the stair, aud iu an effort to raise them the bench gives, and to save that he loses in part his hold on the tubs, aud bciore he can recover it the board slips out and goes back into the cellar, two steps at a jump, //e turns round aud looks over the tubs down at the board, which he eyes with an intensity there appears to be no call for, and again attemps the ascent, lie gets the bench sturted ahead but the end catches iu the step, and hav ing exhausted his endurance and reach in getting it that fur, finds him self completely powerless to lift it over the obstruction. It lias growu very warm in the last minute, and his breath comes very short and quick, and it seems us if tlic arm which holds the tubs will soon drop off at the shoulder aud leave him a cripple for life, aud at Ibis juncture ‘ loosens and commence* to slip nud threaten trouble. lie presses his arm all the tighter to the inside tub. and to get his ktioe up against the outside one, but it is too lute. There squirm or two, nud then it is over. The outside tub is down with the wash board, having accomplished the trij with a noise that is almost deafening The other tub follows at once, being urged thereto by a kick that nearly throws him from his feet, and tie getting the door open he shoves L.. bench into the kitchen and clear the room, to the apparem jeopardy of tin; legs of tho eutire tauii ly. After that he gets up the ol he J things—makirg no remarks to any body, hut looking around on every out in a manner calculated t j reflect the greatest amount of discredit. Then he puts ou his coat rubs his arms, an- starts clown the street and get** out o the walk, when he is called hack t bring up some wood. If that woo was in the shape of a burial casket it is extremely dliftbtful if be could hav looked more solemn in taking it up stairs. At noon he corals home to dinner and finds only one leaf up, the table-cloth in the wash, and that bis wife hat cut the bread after cutting the soap. Wlmt commcuts he con templates making ou this state of at fairs arc never made. He is seut out in the yard armed with a clothes line, and au injunction to not drop it iu the dirt, and in t!\c scclOiiou of the space devoted to the back yard l»c vents the spleen that has been gathering within him, aud whips that clothes line around with sardonic joy. After that he come j iu with his teeth together, and lifts two tubs full of water to tl: floor, and theu goes into the bed-room aud puts on a pair of dry pants and grimly cats his dinuer. It may occur to him that there is no difference iu this Monday from auv that has pre ceded it but he can't help but wonder wh«%t kind of misery that is which comes every time so fresh and formid able as to appear entirely new.—Da. bury Stirs. ^ ♦ m IVlwt Men Need Wive* for.
