THE EXPOSITOR - WAYNESBORO’, O A., -a 1 ■■ 85= SIRSCniTTIrtN PRICE—IN ADVANCE: Two Dollars per Annum. SATURDAY, MARCH 22, 1573. METKOKOLOGV. Meteorology is gradually becoming “tjrxnly established on a scientific basis. It is to the credit of American men J j of Pcieuoo —Professor Maury, Gen. : Mytr, and his assistants, the officers of the Smithsonian Institute, and others —that the greater portion of the data has been collected, and the soundest . theories have been given to the world by them. Now wo’ have, in the last number of the Popular Science Monthly, ; the law of stonus developed, by Pro fessor Thompson 13. Maury, of the Sig nal Office At Washington. It is a great step in advance that a law should be acknowledged universally as govern- j ing cveu the winds of heaven; that j storms, cyclones, the hurricane, are sub- , ject to the same rigid rules as the geutlc j zephyrs of autumn that scarcely stir The bright red leaf, The last of its elan, That dances as often ns dance it, can; Hanging so light and hanging so high [sky. On the topmost bough that looks up to the New facts nrc being gathered every day. Over the wide area of the United States observant eyes arc watching and at Washing ton able heads are nothing j all atmospheric changes. Wo look for a great advance in the next two years. How to Succeed in Life. I am always sorry for a man who knows how to do but one thing. I liavo seen many such men. I gave ten dollars lars to one who could speak and five or six languages and translate beautifully; but in the middle of a hard winter ho could not get a living. I remember an other man who bad preached twenty-five years until his throat failed, and he used to go round looking, very blue and sad, until people pittied him, and made little donation parties for him because ho was fit for nothing but to preach. I kuew a lady once .who had taught school for twenty years,till she was a poor nervous, broken-down woman. I know a man that wants to keep store, and iic sits with his thumb in his mouth, waiting to be kept. I heard of a minister who, when his people gave him a horse and buggy, had to wait for the deacon’s wife to come over and show him how to har ness the horse, for he didn’t kuow the bit from the crupper. Now, boys and girls, every real man should know how to do one thing right well, and ho ought to know how to do several things toler ably. Every wise farmer has a princi pal crop; but he always puls in a little something else, so that if his main crop fails he can have something to live on. Don't carry all your eggs in one basket. Don't put all your money in one pocket. If you want to get along right well learn one sort of work to get a living by, and all sorts of work to get along with when your one sort gives out. I never saw a woman do a man's work handily, but I liked her all the better for that; and I never saw a man do a woman’s work neatly, but I thought the more of him. For, you see, work is something that needs to be done, and he who knows how to do most of it, will have the best chance to make money, or, which is better still, make himself feel like a useful man. For, you see, if a man feels that he is of no use in the world, except to be a bug in a crack; and if the crack widens, be scared and drops, or if the crack closes, be pinched, he is always anxious about that crack, for fear that something is going to happen, and that he will be out in the could, or else jammed. Such a man can never be happy, because he can never feel that he amounts to much. But if a man feels that if he cannot make shoes, rake stones out of the road, spade in a garden, take care of sick people, or scour old coats, be is always j sure he can do something. That man will never feel scared. 1 Somebody having applied to an editor for a method by which he might cure his daughter of her partiality for young gentlemen, is kindly informed that there are several methods of reform. The best are to put her in a well and | drop a few loads of gravel on her bead j or to bind her ankles to an anvil and ■ # I upset ber out of a boat. Newspapers, Magazines, Etc.. Prospectus for 1873 —Sixth Year, THE AT DINE, An Illustrated iioutlilv Journal, universally admitted to be the Handsomest Periodical in the World. A Representative and Champion of Ameiican Taste. ; Not for Sale In Hook or News Store*. THE ALDINE, while issued with nil thu regularity, h.n imo of the temporary or timely interest characteristic) of ordinary periodicals It is an elegant miscellany of pure, light, end graceful literature; und a collection of pictures, the rarest specimens of arti.-tle skill, in black and white. Although each succeeding number affords a fresh pleasure to its friends, Iho real value und beauty of The Aldine will bo most ap preciated after it lias been bound up at thoclo.-o of Hie year. While other publications may claim superior cheapness, as compared with rivals of a similar class, The Aldine is a unique and original 1 conception—alone and unaiipioaefied—absolutely j without competition in pnoo or character. The possessor of a complete volume cannot duplicate ' tho quantity of tine paper and engravings in any | other shape, or number of volumes for ten times | its cost; and then, there, are the chromos, besides! ART 3D PARTMEKTT. Notwithstanding the increase in the price of subscription last Full, when The Aldine assumes its pro v ent noble proportions and representative character, the edition was more, than doubled during tho past year; proving that the Ameri can public appreciate, arid will support a sin | cere effort in llio cause of Art. The publishers, j anxious to justify the ready confidence thus j demonstrated, liavo exerted themselves lo the utmost to develop nnd improve the work; and j the plans for the coming year, as unfolded by the ! monthly issues, will nstoni-h and delight even | the most sanguine friends of The Aldine. Tho publishers are authorised toannounco de signs from many-of tho most eminent artists in America. In addition, The Aldine. will reproduce ex amples of tho best foreign masters, selected with a view to the highest artistic success, and great est general interest; avoiding such as ha ve be come familiar, through photographs, or copies of any kind. The quarterly tinted plates, for 1373 will re produce four of John S. Davis’ inimitable child sketches, appropriate to the four seasons. These plates, appearing in tho issues for January, April, July, and October, would be nlono worth tho price of a year’s subscription. Tho popular feature of a copiously illustrated “Christmas” number will be continued. To possess such a valuable epitome of tho nrt world at a cost so trifling, will command the subscriptions of thousands in every section of tho country; but, as the usefulness and attrac tions of The Aldine can be enhanced, in propor tion to the numerical increase of its supporters, the publishers propose to make “assurance doubly sure,” by the following unparalleled offer of Premium Chromos for 1813. Every subscriber to The Aldine, who pays in ad vance for the year 187:5, will receive, without addi tional charge, a pair of bcautifnl oil chromes, after .1, ,J. Hill, the eminent English pointer. The pic tures, entitled “Tho Village Relic,” and “Crossing the Moor,” are 11x20 inches— ure printed from 25 different plates, requiring 25 impressions and tints to perfect each picture. The same chromos are sold for S3O per pair in the art stores. As it is the determination of its conductors to keep The Aldine out of the reach of competition til every depart ment, the chromos wilt be found correspondingly ahead of any that can be offered by other periodi cal*. Every subscriber will receive certificate, over the signature of Ihc publisher narnnteeing, that the chromos delivered shal ou.-i: •< tin samples furnished t be agent, ort i will be refunded. The distribution of picture igrade, free to the subscribers to a five doll , periodical, will mark an epoch in the history of Art; and, con sidering the unprecedented cheapness of the price for The Aldine itself, the marvel falls little short of a mlrnclo, even to those host acquainted with the achievements of inventive genius and Improved mechanical appliances. (For illustrations of these chromos, see N .vernier issue of The Aldine. The 1 literary Department wi l continue under the care of Mr. Richard Hen ry Stoddard, assisted by the best writers and poets of the day, who will strive to have the literature of The. Aldine always in keeping with its artistic attractions. TERMS—S3 per annum, in advance, with Chromos free. The AlTlitie will, hereafter, he obtainable only by subscription.

Till' CoSPRDKn ATK Mo.Ni’MK.NT’t A.or Ga > Apocsta, Ga,, January 4tli, 187a. ) WE are aware that a second postpone ment of llm distribution of the share* of the Confederate Monumental Association of Georgia will dissatisfy some of the ticket holders. Providence has inflicted upon al most every section of our country, for tho last month, the severest weather that has been known for ninny years. The highway* of travel in many sections have been stop ped. Communications between neighbor hoods have been inlerrup'ed. People have been compelled to keep close at their homes. One Agent writes: “The iwistponenien is so short that owing to the bad weather it will be impossible for me to n ! d you as I expected.” A State Agent informs us that “tlie contribution from bis Slate will be cut down to a small amount by the inclem ent weather, nml tlie shortness of time.’’ One Agent stated to us in person that there was many who wished to subscribe—that lie had not been able to see in conseqnence of the extreme bitternss of the weather. Another Agent declined to act longer, ns the time was too short to obtain tl e desired results in his State. We might quote fiom other letters to show that complaint has been made; that we sought expedite the drawing lv inadequate time. We frankly confess that we der jreil to close the effort wc have benn making. The object sought is a grateful one. We have been influenced to hold or. by our desire to honor the mem ory of personal relatives and friends, ns well as their lost and devoted comrades. We use the occasion to add that we have in no small degree been influenced to continue our eflbrls to protect tlie credit of our Slate and section. We look to a quenchless vestal tire, without which, their can be no son!, no true greatness, no noble sentiment in com munities 01 nations. We rre Agents to guard this great and most sacred enterprise. W'e ask the ticket holders to give us their confidence. W ask them to rely upon our judgments for another brief period. We know better than they do the necessi.y for a little more time. If any one shall say this additional postpone ment violates our pledge, all that we have to say is, tiie South is not yet so represented as to appear creditably before the country and the world. When we honestly tell you that, will you not rather thank than con demn us for the delay. In addition to the difficulties already referred to, we may properly add that, for weeks past the ex citement of canvassing for county offices, some of which are lucrative, have directed attention from this etfiirt to do garateful and patriotic work. These elections are over. These excitements are rapidly pass ing aw at-. Our people can now hate time for reflection. They will now move freely ; come to the tombs < f their martyrs, stretch ed on their shields in wakeless sleep, and make their offerings for perpetual renmin bi anc. We trust no one will be dissatisfied, but that all will unite with us- in saying that the sepulchral honors of the dead should not be marred by impatience or selfish considera tions. Whether we look to the hat tie-lield or the new made grave, our heroes are wreathed with the honors of dying patriot* We now publicly pledge and solemnly aver that the distribution shall take place on the THIRD DAY OF APRIL, 1H73, 1). V. On that day the i nrtaiu will fall upon liiis most holy enterprise, and we trust the people will enable ns to present an exhibit that will be more satisfactory than we could "'.ijlP “P- iho.-I.Bt.ji it i st.
