The Cc nlcniil:il Ifyini:.
Whittier's Ccnlcnnial IJyran,” the
niuoic for which was written by J. K.
Payne, was. rehearsed for the first time
on Wednesday evening by the Centen
nial chorus, numbering now nearly
nine hundred voices, to the firm, reg
ular beats of Theodore Thomas's bat-
Thc seats of the musical fund
had bccu placed lengthwise the hall,
with the j»iano pn the eastern side, in
order that the chorus licihg nearer to
the leader, could catch the time more
quickly. The music of the hymn, like
the hymn itself, is so natural and sim
ple iu the flow of its measures thal but
a few repetition^ UAr necessary be
fore the expression, as well us the
music was fully acquired and render

the hymn:

1 Li re is :i real estate age
Atlanta named CL IV. Adair
has written u letter of advice lo the
]M:o|)lo of the North and Northwest,
who are thinking of immigrating to
Georgia, and in that letter lie lias
drawn a lino from Columbus to Au
gusta, taking in Macon, and say*
south of that lino it is dangerous
for them (theproposed new settlers)
to think of going to, on account of
nnhealtlifulness of the climate. Now,
we have no war to make on
writer of tins letter. He seek
lx-in-fit North Georgia, his section
of the conn try; but we really think
Mr. Adair should have surveyed the
field with an impartial eye, and sjm>-
ken in the letter of this section of
Georgia as it justly deserves to he
spoken of by a live mall of
State. He says the health of this
seettion is not good, or is not com
parable to the health of the middle
belt of the State. Mr. Adair is mis
taken; he is Inlsoriug under an egro
gious error, and we can excuse him
under no other pretense except that
of ignorance. Taking the year
round, health re]torts and statistics
show that onr section of country
compares with any ]K>rtion of G
gia in the health of its citizens.
Mr. Adair, in his letter to the
Northerners desirous of coming
our State, overlooked the advuuta-
of Southwest and Southern
Georgia, and refers to these two
flections only to say they arc uu
healthy. Rc)iorts and statistics, as
referred to above, prove the error of
the gentleman's letter, ami now the
question is, shall we remain idle and
see the upper sections of onr State
lmild up at our expense ? Ought
to remain quiet and sec onr sister
State Florida tilled up with sturdy
men and women seeking homes in
the South, and make no effort to
put before the moving multitude
some of the advantages of our
tion ? Is the matter of having North
ern and Northwestern men settle ii
onr midst, with 11s to take hold to
build up the waste places, worth
our thought ami earnest attention ?
If so, should there not Ik? concert of
tion right now, this Summer, this
Fall, on our part? Shall we wait
for the few stranggling Northerners
to “drop in'* our midst ami afte
go away let them do all the
advertising of our advantages that
onr section gets? Think alnnit the
matter, and thinking nlxmt it. let';
go to work.—, \llxiiiif Xrirs.

1st Ainnse yourself. This is the
first principle of good, hard work.
AjuI the second is like unto it.
2d. Don’t work too much. It is
the quantity not the qnalityof work
that kills. Therefor**.
:M. Work only in the day time.—
Night was made for sleep. And
4th. Rest on Sunday.
3tl». Go to work promptly bid
slowly. A Lite hurried start keen*
yon out of breath all day trying td
eateli up.
Oth. When you stop work, forget
It »i>oils the brain to simmer
after a hard boil.
7th. Feed regularly, largely, ami
slowly. Lose no.meal; itpproach it
respectfully and leave gracefully.—
No more can he got ont of a man
than is put iuto him.
8t1i. Sleep one-third of your w hole
life. How 1 lmte the moralists who
eroak over time wasted in sleep.—
Resides sleep, is on the whole the
most satisfactory mode of existence.
Dili. Don’t abuse tobacco. Enjoy
it, lmt not ns an unconscious lmhit.
Burn no incense thoughtlessly on
the altar of this god of good diges
tion and peace of mind.
10th. Keep whiskey for emergen
cies. Like religion, it is too good
for every day use, and should he re
spected accordingly.
lltli. Focus your brains as you
onld a burning glass. Butter
enough for a small slice won’t do
for a whole loaf.
12th. Keep empty-headed be
tween- times. 'Mental furniture
should b6 very select Useless lnm-
1k*t hi the upper story is worse than
]M>cketful of ttys ter shells. Leave
onr facts on your book shelves,
where you can find them when wan-
A walking encyclopaedia can
not work for want of room to turn
round iu its own heal.
13th. Don't tax your memory.—
Make u memorandum and put it in
your i»ocket. Every unnecessar
thought is so much waste ot effectiv
force.
14tli. Dou’t lielieve that muscular
xereise counteracts liesidwork.—
Brain and nnicle are hung-hoh; and
spigot of the same barrel.
13th. Don’t hide your light 11
bushel. Not that the light i:

might set the bushel on fire.
lfith. Pin yonr faith to the gt

manageable sort of genius.

The Realities of Life,
There is routine work to ittttT
every man goes through it, bht hot
all in the same way. To some it
drudgery, to some pain, to some art, to
some pleasure, but lo all life. If
mau will not work neither shall he eat
and what the workmen do is necessa
rily routine: the same wants, the same
demands, simfiar duties meet us ev
ery day. There arise endless details
and questiens of ways and means, but
the one thing, life, bv duty and by
work, is before us! But what wisdom
what grace, wc require to meet and
fulfill it!
IIow oltcu wc are vexed and troub
led by it! Wc are like mariners in an
archapclago; the channel is bordered
ou either side by rocks, aud lie L
skillful pilot who steers solely Uirouj
them. There is one thing, however,
that belter tbau all thiugs help a man
every morning iu the heavens, and al
though mists aud eloudes some
times cover it, it is there. So a man’s
disposition makes or mars bis prospect
There is no healthier, no more hope
ful light that a mau can throw on his
pathway tbau chccrlulncss.
The seasons may change, days
run iuto weeks, weeks into months,
and months Ik* swallowed up iuto
the gray man of advancing years,
hut that mortgage stands up in sleep
less vigilance, with the interest, a
perennial stream ceaselessly run
ning on.
Like a huge niglit-iuare eating
out the sleep of some restless slum
ber, the unpaid mortgage rears up
its gaunt front in perpetual torment
to the miserable wight who is held
with its miserable dutch. It holds
the-poor victim with its restless
grasp of a giant; not one hour of rec
reation ; not a moment’s evasion of
its hideous presence. A general sav
age of minifying aspect while the in
terest is paid, a very devil of liopc-
lo^s destfnotion when the pavments
fail.
Other habits may he evaded or
smoothed aside; hut a mortgage
hangs 011 with the pertinacity of a
hull dog or a blacksmith’s vise. If
the interest js not paid, it is added

The Foppish Preacher.
Recently in addressing a class of
theological graduate*,*. Boy. Dewit
yahhageilms described fro foppish
autl frivolous preacher:
He has si lisindsciiie foot or hand,
or lie thinks lie lias.- It ii evident
from his gait and appearance tliat
he has received lUOf^ of his inspira
tion from the tailor. Hw .glove fits
so well that it steins to have grown
on; his lxx>t, as if made on a last of
the last fashion. His hair twists
thbcigb it liad been -nmler curling
iritis. From his ^estienlatiou you
Iff 10^ lie has practicLxt them ln-fore
the mirror. He prides' himself on
being a Isulv’s man and looks so
sweet idmgliterj, and baa the np-
fxiiriitet 0f ono^fOotle/i fashion
plates. As he tykes opt, his liand-
drchief to wipe away a tour iu the
midst of liis sermon,'the fabric drops
musk and pntcoulv, and “balm of a
thousand flowers,” aud “new mown
hay” and r kiss me qnic” [Laught
er.] He is a stick of eelesiastical
candy—a moral peppermint—a reli
gious chocolate drop [Laughter.]—
He takes liis text from the most lu
scious part of Solomon’s Song, and
lit bps in a manner tlnveet beyond
description! [Loud laughter.] He
lists a diamond ring on two lingers
aud :t glitteriug stud in his shirt
lxNSom. He sucks a sugar-plum
while the collection is lieing taken
up. [lsuighter] and, though not
shortsighted sit sill, 1ms his glasses
astride his nose, lifts the hymn hook
fantastically, and rcstds:
••There i- a land of pu-ali .le-li S ht,
Where -aint, iinmau tal relstt.”
[Laughter.] It would take about
sixty of them to equal one decent
doll-baby. After hearing such a
young mau preach, an old cleargy-
111:111 arose in the pulpit to make tlio
closing prayer, said said: “Oh,
Lord, bless this young man and
make his heart sis soft ns liis head,”
[Laughter.]
Mother Eve's Servant Gill.
-Can any one tell why, when Eve
wna manufactured from Adam’s ribs,
si hired girl was not made sit the
same time to wait on her ?”
Because Adam never came whin
ing to Eve with ragged stockings
to l>e darned, or collar string to lie
sewed on or glove to ho mended
“right siway; quick now!” Because
he never resul the newspapers until
the sun goes down behind the palm
trees, and then stretching himself,
yawned out “Ain’t supper mast
ready, my dear ?” Not he. He
inside the fire and hung over the
tcsi-kettle himself, we ll venture, and
pulled the radishes, aud peeled the
bananas, and even- thing else he’d
ought to. He milked the cow, fed
the chickens, and looked after the
pigs himself. He never brought
homo a half a dozen friends to din
ner when Eve hadn't any fresh
proincgraimtos, aud the lusiugo sesi-
son wsis over. He never stayed out
until 11 o’clock lo si “ward meet
ing,” hurrahing for sin out-and-out
esindidsite and then scolded becsinsc
poor dear Eve wsis a sitting up and
crying within the gsites. He never
played billiards nor drove fsist hors
es, nor choked Eve with cigar
smoke. He never lostfed siround
corner groceries, while solitary Eve
w;u rocking little Cain's cradle sit
home. Iii short, lie did not think
she was especially created for the
pui'i>ose of waiting on him, and was
not under the impression that it
disgraced si insiu to lighten his wife’:
cares si little.
* Where the Money Goes.
ifcBfr. Swipes, won't you split up a
^lilfle wood, and go and borrow a brass
kettle bcfuic you go to town?”
{“What in thunder do you want me
tdtlo that for?”
Cause I waul to preserve some
berries to-day.”
“Cherries?”
“Yes cherries!”
“That's just like you, Mrs. Swipes.
You're always splultcriug am! fooling
•round with some nonsense like this.”
“Nonsense—well, I guess you like
preserves as well a* anybody."
M I dou't either.”
“If you wasn't too lazy to split the
wood you’d like them.”
** u Mrs. Swipes, now do be seusiblc.—
You kuow this preserving business
costs money, for sugar, fruit, cans,
wax, firewood, and the deuce knows
what all. But some way or other you
never do thiuk about expense, for
you're always buying ribbons, rutiles
and fluiumadtddles; but when I want
anything such as au easy chair to rest
my weary bones in—oh, uo, I can't
have it, because you’ve spent all the
money for duds to put on your owu
back.”
“Now, vou think you've said it. Oh
uo, you don’t speud any money, but I
spend it all. If that's so, where do
you get money to play pedro aud come
home to the bosom of your family stone
blind drunk? Don’t deny it. Swipes,
for you kuow somebody blacked your
lasses the other day and you was
so druuk you thought it was mid-uight,
aud came home with a lantern in your
band in the middle of the day-. You
talk about squandering money.’’
Go for Him.
He’s a poor, hard working mail
trying to pay liis honest debts and
support his family by honest toil,
but “go for him,” because lie can
not pay you a few dollars lie owes.
He is poor and entitled to no con
sideration. Keep him down!
Help him ! He’s a rich man who
robbed a hank or made an assign
ment,lives a in fine mansion and walks
the streets leisurely, enjoying life,
while his wife and children are de
prived of none of the luxuries of
wealth or enjoyment of society. —
Help him ! He’s smart—an enter
prising business man, and it’s a pity
he’s robbed liis creditors. Don’t
say anything to hurt his tender fecl-
nor expect him to soil his deli
cate fingers by toil. He compound
ed with creditors at 23 or 30 per

Jackson died worth about *80,000;
Van Ruren left some $400,000. It

•Really, Mr. Webster. I don’t thiuk
any Northern statesman is more
thought of by our people than you
are, but I must say that 1 have not

exclaimed Webster, iu his sonorous
tone of voice, while his twinkling
ejes announced a witticism. “No
similarity? Why, Dawson, I appeal to
you as a Georgian, and to thes? other
gentlemen, if I am not greatly like
