of character, means and influence founded upon
Ibig Scriptural and reasonable basis, is as solid
lithe everlasting hills, and a source of happi-
uiss to the individual and to everybody ap
proaching the magnetic circle of his cheerful
ind salutary influence.
Bot descending lower in tho theory of human
gerelopment, there is in all the pursuits of in-
jmtjy such a thing as a healthy and harmonions,
ind in immature, irrational, unmethodical and
tnhealtby development Some men make
thorough preparation and move along with
HP order, and a steady, persistent application
-gathering new strength every day, until at
list the attention of tho world is attracted by
the mere magnitude of results; and they call
inch men—fortunate—lucky! Tho world
tikes no cognizance of tho long and careful
adaptation of means to ends, and the prudence,
rjjtem, and perseverance which have worked
out these results as rationally as a good crop
follows careful culture.
Othor men pitch into business in a helter
skelter way, and blander through on little better
itcurity than temporary shifts, and the chapter
of accidents. They are like the wood-cutter
*ho was so busy he could never find time to
grind bis axe. Such men may, now and thou,
go through auccessfnlly, but nine times out of
ten they are the victims of bad luc>*! They
work hard, and reap a harvest of vexation and
loss.
Our great industrial pursuit in Georgia is
firming: and it may truly be said that no other
demands more careful preparation, or more
prndent, systematic, energetic and intelligent
prosecution. The farmer is not fairly ready to
begin business to advantage until ho has a snug,
veU-iaelosed place, with aU needful buildings.
Until be has a good supply of stock both for
labor and subsistence, and ample food to supply
his necessities till tho next crop. With these
in hand he can begin to prosecute his calling
with moral certainty of success.
The first business on band will then bo to
provide for all his plantation supplies next year.
He must secure ample provision for his family,
hands and stock, first of all; and in providing
food for the living he secures an ample supply
of nutrition for his land. If ho is a good farmer
every acre is the better for every crop ho raises
on it; and, producing food consumed on the
place, he is adding annually to its productive
power. He raises meat and corn, peas, clover
and grain to fertilize his land as well as to eat;
sad to buy meat, peas, corn and manure as
part of a system of farming he knows is simply
throwing away money. If a man has means to
•pare, it may be well to supplement the produc
tive power of his laud by commercial fertilizers;
bnt he who buys meat and fertilizers, too, is
P*ying two prices for improving his land.
A farmer in this course of harmonious, well-
balanced devdopement, will show it in the im
provement of everything around him—in neat,
comfortable and sightly buildings—good stock—
substantial fences—full corn cribs and meat
house—plenty of poultry, sheep, pigs, cows—a
good garden and orchard—a family well pro
vided for—a cash balance in hand, and no store
or bank debts.
A man in this condition is sound, solvent and
happy. Ho sleeps well and eats welL And
nothing prevents any energetio Georgia farmer
from realising this picture in bis own person,
bnt the insane burry to be rich, which defeats
itself and keeps him poor. The wood cutter
coold not find time to grind bis axe, and the
Georgia farmer can’t find time to raise bis food
and to do business with that order, system and
economy which are indispensable to success.—
He is bound to raiso too much cotton to attend
to anything which is essential to his success in
business. In a word, wo regard farming in
Georgia, in its present condition, as a striking
illustration of an ill-balanced and inharmonious
industrial development
Distressing Dream.
We had a distressing dream last night First

There was tho Pope and the whole college of
Cardinals—venerable men, a host of learned

your requests. We are on the cash system and

The Georgia Bill.
The Boston Post Washington correspondent
of the lOlh, says:
A letter was received here from _ Georgia to
day by a member of Congress, in which the
writer deprecates the passage of the fourth sec
tion of tho Georgia bill, passed by tho Senate,
authorizing the Governor to raise a State mili

were never more promising, and it will require
aU tho laboring hands in the State to gather

to-day, petitions abolishing the office of presiding
older were defeated. A proposition to strike out the_
word South from the title of the church was referred
back to committee. A long debato on tbo abolition
of itineracy and the substitution of tho pastoral

From South Carolina.
Columbia, May 14.—Judge Melton, last night,
granted an order requiring L L. Neagle, Comp
troller General, J. H. Low, and the Blue Ridge
Railroad Company, to show cause why Neagle
should not be restrained from endorsing in behalf
of the State the four millions of bonds authorized
by the act passed September 15th, 1868, to extend
aid to the Blue Ridge Railroad Company, and in the
meantime they are restrained from endorsing and
issuing said bonds. Two millions already have been
signed by Neagle; he signed one million last night.
They are intended for the Enropean market. It is
contended that the Constitution prohibits the en
dorsement of any bonds whatever by the State.
ELEVATE THE SYSTE"m
And bring it up to its original healthy condition,
by tho judicious use of a pure invigorating tonic
medicine.
Do not be imposed upon by newspaper puffs and
published certificates, praising beyond bounds the
virtues of this or that wonderful tonic, warranted
a universal cure-all—but test for yourself, by a fair
and impartial trial, the valuable properties of Solo
mon’s Bittors,
The Proprietors do not protend that it will cure
every disease that “flesh is heir to,’’ but they drum
for it some few virtues, and of these few it will be
found decidedly to come up to the mark.
In all cases of nervous exhaustion, debility, and
weakness of the digestive organs, it will prove an
invigorating and grateful cordial, and also in all
weaknesses following excessive hemorrhages, fe
male peculiarities and irregularities, and in uterine
diseases.
Abundant proof can bo furnished to convince the
most skeptical, that it possesses in an eminent de
gree tho virtues of an anti-periodic; it is, therefore,
a preventive to chill and fever, billions remittent
