liOOD ADVICE. “
A abort time ago, we took oocasioa to
tender a few words of advice to the young
men of Georgia—touching a subject o'
paramount importance to them.
Subjoined, the reader will find extracts
from ao article which lately appeared in the
Griffin Star —all of which we heartily
endorse and commend ;
Not a week passes but what we are vis
ited or written to by able-bodied young
men, asking us to recommend them lor a
situation is some business in town.
We propose, then, to give a little advice
to these young men we love so well.
You look upon the pleasures of town life
as extremely desirable ; you visit town
with sun-burnt face, brown, bard Lands
and homespun dress, and probably with
little cash in your pockets. You see the
auosejjoui cltijks dancing attendance upon
beautifni ladies—bantering compliments
and exchanging soft glauces, while they
sell them lace and ribbon ; you see the law
and medical students indulging in appa
rently elegant leisure ; you bear of balls,
parlies, and other exceptionable amuse
ments. You see these town bucks dress
floe, and talk large, and bear of big sala
ries they are getting, and yon fancy it a
glorious life to live, but you are mistaken.
Becuuiarily, physically and morally, your
chances are far better at home on your
lather's farm, or even on rented land.
Go to your father, and ask him to lay
of 100 acres of bis plantation for your use;
ittwkp snob terms with bitn as will secure
yen the title eventually, so that yeu can sail
from the start Go atjd emyloy you
a good freedmatt. You and the freeffmta
go into the forest with axe upou shoulders ;
cut dp»o the timber, and put up a cabin.
Go-to work rtgjit away to put your ground
in order for a crop next year, but don’t
over crop yourself. Don’t go every thing
on cotton i! any other one crop, j
comes in the Spring, and will bring a
ready sale at #1.50 to #2 00 per bushel.
You can raise 200 bushels.
Do your own cooking ; you learned that
in the army. Make your little cabin your
borne ; you can make it partially attractive
even without the light of woman's smiles.
Take one or two agricultural papers, and
experiment cautiously upou their “book far
ming" which some old farmers speak con
temptuously of.. Take a good literary ps
j>er (the Gazette for instance.) Onrainv
days, store your mind with useful knowl
edge.
(Asa parenthesis, we would here say,
driuk coffee or tea, instead of liquor, as a
stimulant, lie temparate in all things.)
Study the history and politics of
•your own country, and then of other coun
tries. Go to see the girls occasionally, but
don’t court them. Such a course for five
years will find you “master of the situation.’’
You can then win the heart of the sweetest
maid in the neighborhood. You can even
go to town and marry the gayest of the
gay butterflies that throng the streets, if
you perfer; and if she isn’t much account,
then you will have afrength of purpose to
mould her to your standard. This is the
kind of men the women love. A true
woman, be she town or country bred ;
wouldn’t give one stout, healthy, industri
ous, intelligent man, for a cowpen full of
fops and dandies.
English Workmen. —“An operative
who knows what it is to hare the screws
pnt on him” makes a curious statement as
illustrating the coercive power of tbe work
ingmen’s associations of England ;
For myself, and such of my fellows as I
could name, if I durst, I may truthfully a
vow that we would not give sixpence for
tbe right to vote, knowing well that
we should stand as much chance of being
allowed to excercise it freely at an election
as we bare of using our descretion in join
ing or withholding our selves from a
strike in our trade. A word about that.
Let a skilled workman, with a wife and fam
ily dependant on bis exertions, receive notice,
that unless be conforms to the laws pro
mulgated for lus guidance by the managers
of tbe So-and-So-*erike,'he will be looked
as a “black sheep," tad dealt with accord
ingly, and where is bis independence ?
Why, sir, it is a mockery and a-shame to
talk about it We hold out, perbapt, for
a time, and dowit go our names and we
join. Some, perhaps, even of tbe better
instructed among us, may think this is all
right; but] what I mantain is, that we
have no option given ns of declaring oar
real optniona. We must yield to numbers.
WASHINGTON, WILKES COINTY, GA JWDAft « laiift
CROKWELL’S DISSOLUTION OF THE RUMP
*»■ Parliament.
The 20th, 1653, is the date of the
memorable event. Tbe Parliament by
which Char'es I. bad been met and over--
come, had dwindled by various purgations
to about fifty-three members, who aimed
at becoming a mild oligarchy for the ad
ministation of tbe commonwealth. They
were deliberating on a bill for future repre
sentation, in wbioh they should have a
permanent place, when Cromwell resolv
ed to make an end of them. It was the.
last incident in tbe natural series Os a rev
olution, placing military power above all
other.
Cromwell, baring ordered a company of
musketeers to follow him, entered tbe
bouse in“plaiu black clothes and worsted
stockings,” k and, sitting down, listened for
a while to their proceedings. Hearing the
at length the question put, that the bill do
pass, be rose, put off his hat, and began
to spoak. In tbe course of bis address
he told them of their self-seeking and de
lays of justice, till at length Sir Peter
Wentworth interrupted him with a re
monstrance against such language. Then
blazing up, be said, “we have had enough
of this ;>I wiH put au end io your pra
ting.”
Stepping into the floor of the house,
and clapping on his hat, he commenced a
violent harangue, which he occasionally
emphasized by stamping with his feet, and
which came mainly to this : “It'is not fit
you should sit here any longer—yon have
sat too long for any good you have been
doing lately. Yuu shall give plane to
better men. “Call them in !” he exclaim
ed, and bis officer Harrison and a file of
soldiers entered tbe House. Then pro
ceeding : “You are no parliament f Some
of you are drunkards-bend tog a atom
eye upon Mr. Cbaloner ; “some of you are
,”a word excessive of a worse
immorallitv, and be »w©k*3 at .Mar
tin and Sir Piter Wjptvjsoftk 'f- ’-‘‘jpog •»In
open contempt
Sometof you, aMMKfiaf
i-arilament for Go'tfa
people ! Depart I say, and let us have
done with you. Go !”
He lifted his msce from the table and
gave it to a musketeer, to be taken away,
lie caused Harrison to give bis hand to
Speaker Lenthal and lead him -down
from the chair. The members, cowed
by his violence and the sight of his armed
men, moved gloomily out of the house.'
“It is the Lord that hath caused me to do
this,” he said, “I have sought that he would
slay me rather than put me upon doing
this work” Sir Harry Vane ventured a
lemonstrance. “Ob, Sir Harry Vane,”
exclaimed the lord general, “tbe Lord de
liver me from Sir Harry Vane!" When
alt had gone out, he came out too, and
locked the door. From that time he was
master of tbe three for about
five and h alf years. t .
USEFUL SOLDIERS.
In the French army every recruit is sup
posed to know a trade on joining the army.
If he has not learned a trade he ie taught
occupation after joining hie corps. Should
be be ignorant of reading and writing—
or knowing these, should he wish to im
prove his education so as to qualify him
self for promotion—he goes to the regi
mental school for four hours each day,
when he is not on guard or fatigue duty.
Once his school is over he is put to learn
one. In every French regiment gangs of
butchers, bakers, cooks, carpenters, masons,
gardeners, buildeis, laborers, cart drivers,
watchmakers, silversmiths, tailors, shoe
makers, blacksmiths, and what not. All
there traders of hand icraft are under their
regular head men, and every soldier, when
be can work, may and does gain a certain
sum per day by working in the shop at his
trade. In Algeria the whole of the gov
ernment work is done by these military
artisans, who, at well as the state, are gain
ers thereby. Tbe man thus earns extra
pay, and tbe government gets work done
better and cheaper than they could do by
eropioyiog the people of the country besides
treasuring up tbe advantage of always liav.
i«g a corps of workman at command. The
system of regular organiz ed workmen is the
true secret why the French army get on so
well when on service. In tbe English ar
my we hare nothing of this kind, except
as regards tbe tailors and shoemakers, and
(in every cavalry regiment) tbe saddlers
and farriers. There are many good work
men who enter our ranks, but through want
of practice they soon forget what they
knew. In Algeria I have seen a whole
pile of barracks, large enough to contai 0
three thousand men that was built entirely
by a regiment of the line, from tbe digging
of the foundations, to the making of du
glass for the barrack windows, and not a
day’s drill or masueuvering had beep nag
footed while the work was going on
Throughout Algeria miles upou miles oi
excellent roads hava been made entirety bj
the troops, the men being paNsa smal
additional sum by the State wK'esoemp’oy
ed. Thus the government gained by gab
tiug the work belter and very mufch cheep
«r done than could have been affected by
private contractors, while the troops gain
ed a very comfortable addition to their reg
ular pay.—AM the Year Round, *|
stjhlit memories. \
Memories of the past steal gently back-?
ward over the long lapse of years, and
cheer my lonely heart this dreary Meeeim

so long shrouded the bright scenes oj
youth, as lifted to night, and again I am a
merry, laughing child ; onoe more I chase
the gaudy-winged butterfly, or pluck tk«

Two fair companions are beside me. Thi
first is Essy, our rompiog, joyous sistta
with her dark, glowing face and play fit]
ways, more beautiful in her artless in am
eence than words can tall. The other h
Pearl, our fair, gentle darling, whose Uue
eyes and golden hair made ua think of In
angels, and wonder if they are not all thul
fair and lovely. Then, to complete the
group, there is our rtately mother, aud od|
dear grandfather and grandmother. Iloat
well I remember them ell, as, seated in
little -parlor, we were deeply iuw->*Aed /is—

Then he told us if we would ask grandma,
she could give us tbe sequel to his story,
but she only smiled sad said, “Yon ota
guess the rest.” How happy we were, uc
til a dark faced mao came and told us that
our home was no longer ours. Then we
left Lingrove, with its birds, its flowers anl
its green woods, and to the dusty old city,
where in a few short months, our grandpa
rents were called from us, and, for the firit
time, I looked in childish wonder upon the
marble brows of the dead. They robed is
all in black, aud gloom aud sorrow seem
ed to gather around us. As years passel
on, my other loved ones were taken fron
me; thus do sunlit memories lade and lifes
dark realities'rise up before us. I an

And beam forever in that radiant fonn.
The Pope.—lmportant Statement.—
According to the preseot temper ot the
Vatican, tbe departure of the Holy Father it
more probable his continuance at Korns
in the event of tbeFreuch withdrawing, ia
December. It is persistently said that he
will go either to Malta or to England.—
There is a talk of tbe approaching arrival
of Mr. Gladstone, and it is thought that
this stateman’B visit to Rome ie not without
relation to tbe Pope’a departure. The Bri
iah Government ie credited with encoura
ging the Holy Father in hie resistance to
the counsels of France, and with promising
him assistance—assertions which, 1 need
not say, are wholly devoid of foundation.
Indeed I have reason to believe that Mr.
Odo Russell has distinctly told Cardinal
Antonelli that England will not meddle an
the Roman question. While preparing lor
the eventuality of flight, the Pope is also*
contemplating tbe possibility of bis being
detained a captive at Rome, and, as a pre
caution, has drawn up a secret bull, dele
gating his full powers to a cardinal whom
certain reasons prevent my naming at pre
sent Directly the Holy Father Is taken
captive, or deprived of his “apostolic” the
said cardinal will repair to Vienna or Lon
don, and there publish tbe bull, which is

RADICALISM » WISCONSIN.
A friend has shown u* a letter which he has
received from a Red-Republican bjother, who
write* from La Crosae, Wisconsin, and who he
assures us is always only a few months ahead
of his party. We make the following extract
which is a fair sample of the animus of the
party and of its ulterior objects. “Impartial
suffrage” is a tine qua rum, which they are de
termined to force upon the South. What folly
then to urge the adoption of the Constitutional
Amendment by the South with any hope of
thus appeasing the demands of the Radicals!
“The majority in Congress will bo over
whelmingly sustained throughout the North,
(what your papers and politicians may tell you
to the contrary notwithstanding,) and the acts
of the l’reeident will be set aside ae null and
void.
“The people of the North were never more
determined and united than to-day, and they
are aa fully bent on sustaining Congress now
as when the rebellion was in full progress.
The Fresideot has acted like a fool, end done
the South greet berm by hie course, and will
be impeached if lie does not alter his course
right speedily.
“If your people and Legislature will sustain
the majority in Congress they can gat nil they
want, otherwise they need not expect any fs
vopS* Take no offense at what I say. It is
proper that yov should know tbe facts in the
case. Your Legislature did well as far as they
went, but they would have done better to
have come out in favor of impartial suffrage,’'
—Abbeville Preu.
Some of what are designated as ‘the
more advanced politicians of the time,’ are
advocating the election of women to Con
gress. Should their wishes he carried out,
it is probable that tbe custom of ‘pairing
off 1 by members, which has already be
comes great evil, would be very much aug
mented.

Such are the main provisions of the pro

ald end Timet are now urging upon the accep
tance of the South as the only mode of restor

resented than ascept terms so humiliating.—
But even did we accept, it could avail us
nothing in securing our admission into the
Union. Tbe Radical leaders,Stevens, Sumner,
Banks, Wade and others — the Tribune, the
Independent and other Radioal presses, insist
upou “impartial suffrage” as a condition prece

IMPEACHMENT OP THE PRESIDENT.
As tbe Radicals have the two thirds of the
members of each House of Congress they have
the full power to get up an impeachment of the
President, and (here is no question as to their
desire to do s6.' But as well stated by the
Auguste Chronfe/ft& Sentinel, There is one
material difficulty fii carrying out tbe design.
The impeachers must agree and reporta cause
of impeacl.meut which will stand the test of
legal scrutiny and satisfy the judicial sense of
the world. It will be coDeeded that an im
peachment will not lie for mere errore of opin
ion, even if tbe standard of opinion could be
agreed upon. Buch an attempt would arouse
the sympathy aud justice of the people and
consign its authors to merited oblivion. Nei
ther party rage, thirst for vengeance, nor lust
for spoils, has discovered on impeachable act
in the life of the President. He keeps within
tbe Conetitution and lawa, enforcing both, and
violating neither. Henoe no impeachment will
be undertaken.
Without a conviction, it is clear that they can
not deprive him of his office, or interfere with
the proper exercise of its funetions. This is
apparent from Section IV. of article 11. which
declares that “the President Vice-President
and ail eivil officers of tbe United States, shall
be removed from office, on impeeehmeut for,
and conviction of treason, bribery, or other
high crimes and misdemeanors.” Apart from
ths express words of the Constitution, it is ev
ident that any other construction, would be en
tirely inconsistent with the maintenance of s
proper equilibrium between the different de
partments of the Government. The veto pow
er would be a mockery, and the executive a
mere nullity, if the mere presentation of ar
ticles of impeachment could direst ths Presi
dent of his office, or suspend the exercise of its
functions. Tbe matter is too clear for argu
ment. And that anything can be foaod in tbs
past conduct of the President which osaaeeure
his conviction even by a Radical Senate is ex
ceedingly problematical. —Abbeville Prett.
w The Attorney General in response to n
communication ot the President states his opin
ion that no obstacle exists to the trial of Mr.
Davis by tha Civil Courts of Virginia, and
that there is no necessity of any further action
on the part of tbe Executive. Hs is held in
cnatody ready to be delivered np at any mo
ment, on the demand of the Civil anthoritios.
The delay in bringing him to trial does not
rest with ths President.
