How can anyU-dy sell tho produ<-ts of labor for leu* than tho price of labor? that's tho question. And yet it has got to be done, or tho unions must abandon their arbitrary demands and accept for their labor an equitable proportion of available price* for ifo. pro!nets. The Knoxville strikers had to knock under or do no store nul way *ork to tho end of timo at aay rate. The compromise or adjustment effected between the parties is clearly set forth in the following correspondence: Knoxville, Tens*.. Nov. 27,1873. Capi. /of. Ja/juei, Supt. E. TV. Sf Go* R. R. Co.

Work was renewed on Saturday morning, and the accumulation of freights disposed of iu tho two days following. All the demands of the com pany were acceded to, and wo don t see what other course was sensible, or even possible, under tho circumstances. A curious circumstance is mentioned in a Canadian paper of a boy named Kingston* "bo recently lost his arm by n threshing machino at Adelaide. After the limb hod been amputated and buried the boy complained that the hand was cramped, cr.usiag him extreme pain, and that if it was not disinterred he could not recover. The limb was accordingly disiutorred, and tho band found to be firmly abut together.

An Appeal in liehalf of the Little Ones. The report that '•om.-seaiioaadfcy" system in our public school#, wu lost re cently by a single vote only in the Board of Education, induces the writer again to recur to this subject, with increased earn estness. The present plan of consuming the entire day. in vain attempts to han.mer into the enfeebled brain of the youthful prisoner the abstract elements of the sciences, ought to be regarded absurd and injt.nous by every individual who re- membeni hi3 own childhood.

Children are not men and must not be measured by their standard. Animal and physical life at that period predomi nate largely in their existence. The mind ia an unwritten page, bnt thespir- and muscular energies are then in fullest play. Crush out or greatly de press the latter, and the former in com plete sympathy refuses to act. Who does not know that the brightest child when fatigued and discourage'! by a pro tracted recitation, loses interest, answers ithout reflection, and becomes a perfect little dolt. So if the freedom of tho pupil ba undu ly curtailed j if his lessons are made to assumo tho form of weary tasks j if his mind is overtaxed, and ho be denied the recreations and sports of youth, a baleful reaction It tho result, and healthy prog ress becomes estopped effectually. Even in tho utilitarian North, whero every tiling is weighed by its value in dollars and cents, and the teaches of pub lic schools receive regular salaries and contract to give all their time to their employer*. th«> system of teaching five or, at most tie hours only in one continuous session, broken by a half hour’s recess, obtains universally. Experience has shown that it will not pay to do otherwise. Education is the work in hand, and that it has been foun^ can bo best promo ted by affording sufficient time for relax ation to tho “young idea ” We were Wp a littlo struck recently by the experience on this head, of a veteran educator of youth. One »fhp has grown gray in the service, aud stands ceceod to nA onoin the Stato for his erudition, fidelity and success in teaching. Says this venerable witness : “When I first began my career in the town cf as the successor of a famous martinet who was noted for his ability to break-in reprobate bovs, I found that the custom of the school was to begin recitations at or about ranriss, and continue the exer cises, with two hours intermission at noon only, until it was too dark for the pupils to soo their books. This I continued for three years, until fully satisfied of the folly of the system. At the erpiration of that period, procuring a lease of the academy for ten years and a lot of land on the premises, I built a home and abandoned this ruinous method of over taxing and exhausting the mental and physical energies of my pupils.” This gentleman now teaches six hour* per diem, and ia an earnest advocate of one session, on the ground that the men tol discipline and habits of study of his pupils, are sadly broken into by the noon interruption. previous article we have fully argued the importance of, one session in the public schools, if we hope to make what they were designed to be, a blessing to the poor. Those parents who have large families to maintain and are dependent for a support upon their per sonal labor, must have assistance from their offspring. Much os they may feel concerned for their mental progress and wish to see them succeed in life, the bread question is paramount to all others. And the sad, overwork**! mother, too, how can ahe dispense wholly, with the services of her strung and healthyjdaaght- er, when the clothes iuu*t be made and mended, and the cooking and washing done for papa and the little ones. Yet she must do this, if soon after the rising of the winter’s sun, that child is hurried off to school and confined there until the shades of evening. This two session regu lation, therefore, practically rules out many of the neediest families from the benefits of free education, while if it was abandoned, and five or six hours in the oarly part of the day only, set apart for school exercise, the child could well nigh accomplish all of its chores at home, and be bene fitted both in mind and body at the same time, by the blending of physi cal and mental labor. Bnt why reiterate these truths which .ux* alxnowl axiomatic : VN u t*w tne chit* transferring the seat of government to Milledgevilie, where it rightfully be longs. The section of tho Constitution removing it to Atlanta was ramnurddown our throats along with relief, Vome&U-Jid^, and the good features of the Constitution of 18CS. At the next election we wish the question put separate and distinct, in order that the real wish of the people may be ascertained. Biennial sessions of the Legislature should also be provided for, as the State cannot afford the expense of annual sessions, accomplishing, as they do, so little of good. By all mean* let the Legislature in January put the.ques tion to the people. Convention or no Con vention? ^ Two cases of burglary and one of high way robbery, on Thursday night in Au gusta, are reported by the papers of that dty. The Covington Enquirer says a J.v-p-r county boy who ooold'nt find a place to sleep during th« late Fair, offered to pay n Covington man $1J>0 an hour to sit up with him during the night. He could have found lodgings at a good many places for less than that—Sprawl’s for instance. The Cuthbert Appeal says on last Tuesday a very desirable plantation of over 000 acres, was sold at sheriff sale, for a little over $300—about 33 cents per acre. Tho plantation had two good dwelling houses on it, either of which were worth three times os much as the entire place brought. # . Mr. Jjls. W. Davies, of Augusta, who has been elected President, pro tern., of the Georgia railroad, will receive a salary of $6,000 per annum. Judgo King will, however, continue to rec uve his salary, which is also $6,000. The vote stood seven for Mr. Davie* to six for Major George T. Jackson, who was understood to be Judge King’s choice for tho po sition. Outrage on a Conductor.—A few nights since, says the Rome Commercial, Conductor West, of the Selma, Rome aud Dalton road, had »umc of hia ©ffoet# ttoleu from hiir, and a* it wa* certain tliat one of tho three negroes in his em ployment had stolen tho things, and he could not ascertain which, he told them ho would hold them all accountable. Upon this, one of tho negroes, Lawson Shropshire, jumped up, gathered a lock and chain near at hand and struck the conductor a severe blow on the. head. Mr. West put his hand behind him and drew his pistol, when tho negro struck him another blow, cutting his head dreadfully, and snatching the pistol jumped from the train. The affair took place near Silver creek, six mileq from Rome. A warrant has been issued for tho arrest of the negro. Tur Rome Courier says Mr. R. W. Whitehead, of Polk, connty, ginned 4S5 pound* of lint from 10S4 pounds of seed cotton, and wants to know if anybody can beat it. The editor of the Washington Gazette, who spent a day or two at the State Fair, gives his opinion of it a* follows: We must state, right here, that wc do not pretend to give anything like a de tailed account of thU truly wonderful ex hibition. Had wo spent a week on the grounds and labored diligently to note and give an oocount of the article on ex hibition. wo would surely have failed to do justice to each and every department. We can only say tliat, in our. opinion, no such grand display of agricultural, me chanical, mineral ant] domestic produc tion* has ever been seen in this country. While other State Fairs may liavo sur passed this in some particular branch, taken as a whole our late Fair has never been equaled. And it should be a matter of pride to every Georgian to know that almost the entire exhibition was made of the productions of his own State, grow ing from her own soil, dug from her own mines or produced by the hands of her own citizens.It is true that-there was live stock, and mechanical implements, and products of various kinds from all ■rrtinriR but the principal part of the ex hibition, especially of tho purely agricul tural and mineral portion, was entirely Georgian. En route to the Fair he traveled with a very loving couple whose “carryings-on' seem to have aggravated him, since he putt them in print as follows Amongst the few passenger* aboard there was a youthful couple, a fair-haired and bashful young man and a good look ing young woman with sorrel hair and a great deal of it. They were very affec tionate ■ The young man would occasion ally, indeed very frequently, wind his arm around her neck and clasping her tight draw her to his manly bosom. She seemed to be very easy to draw. He would then rub his * fair young brow amidst her tawney, we mean her golden locks, and in the" sweet embrace their lips would meet in a fond kiss. Then be would re lease her and glance defiantly around at us os we sat near by. "We pretended not to see them, and we felt lonesome. We hope they were married. The Gazette says last Saturday *veek was a bad day, morally, for Washington. The only parties who made much on that dgr were the wholesale liquor dealers, as everybody who was drunk soemod to be drunk by the wholesale. The Columbus Sun says that not half of the freight that comes to that point over the Central Road is now transport ed owing to the hard times, though the through cotton exceeds that of last year The Sun also urt on the authority of though all the teachers in the negro in that city, are of that color, and tuition costa nothing, numbers of negroes refused to send their children there, not because the teachers were not competent, but because the principal, a well educated colored man, chose to support and vote lor Gr- ; and they have not yet got ten over this feeling The same paper also publishes the an nexed unique letter Claim and Counter Claim—$100 for Killing a Dog vs. $150 for His Grave. The following letter, which we saw ac cidentally, regarding the killing of the noted fox hound Rash, of one of our Rep resentatives in the Legislature, Mr. Tfios. Watt, is so good natured that we give it publication in order to explain a pargrapb made yesterday: “Suit’s. Office, N. A S. R. R. Co.,} November 3. ) ... Hon. Claries R.

Handsome Present to an Episcopal Church.—-The Chronicle and Sentinel of Sunday says Miss Louise King, of Au gusta, daughter of Hon. Jno. P. King, has presented to St. Paul's Episcopal Church, of that city, a handsome altar cloth and three elegant panels for tho altar screen. The altar cloth is of crim son plush, bordered with deep yellow silk fringe. In front is the inscription In Remembrance of Me ” in old Eng lish letters, embroidered with gold floss silk. On each side of tho inscription are two Maltese crosses, also embroidered with silk. The embroidery was all done by Miss King, and is exceedingly beauti ful. The entire altar doth is very hand- gome and reflects, much credit upon tho donor. The screen panels are blue, the one on the left bearing the inscription I Am tho Bread of Life,” and that on the right “I Am tho True Yino,” in gold letter*, old English style. Tho centre panel bears a cross surmounted by a crown, also of gold. 1 '* Last Saturday week, says the Thomas- ton Herald, Ur. a. o. an -.UcLiuj... a Mr. Freeman, of “The Rock,” indulged in a little playful pistol practice, which resulted in the latter’s being shot in tho breast. Since the shooting the grand jury of the county have found true bills against Dr. M. for shooting at another, compounding a felony, misdemeanor in keeping a tipplinghouse open on Sunday, misdemeanor in sdlirg whisky to a drunken man, and retailing liquor with out licence. spects extraordinary. The delegation representing the United States Commis sion was composed of Hon. Daniel M. For, chairman; Hon. James H. Camp bell (in place of Hon. William Big ler, detained by indisposition.) Geo. F. Lee, Esq., Thomas R. Fox, Esq., Horace J. Smith. Esq., J.TL Zeilin, Esq., General C. B. Norton (secretary), and they were joined at Macon by ex- Governor Robert M. Patton, member of the Centennial Commission from Ala bama, who participated in their recep tion, and contributed much to the success of their efforts. Governor Smith, of Geor gia, greeted them with a distinguished welcome, and hailed them as the messen gers of a genuine reconciliation. In fact, all parties and sects, including the ladies, whq were gathered from all parts of the State, join-.nl in the greeting, which <*as fittingly acknowledged by ex-Mayor Fox and Major Campbell. The visit and its results indicate that the heart of tho South beats in sincere response to the celebration of the Centennial of American liberty, and that a splendid representa tion of that section may be expected; It is unnecessary to suggest a generous and continuous response to this good feeling, or that any effort should be made to cul tivate and increase it. for that bos been the example of the Centennial Commis sion from the beginning.

The Post says: “General Discon tent,” “General Discord” and “General Dissatisfaction” were the unlucky trio who led the host3 to defeat and death. The Albany Journal says that “Gen<^ ral Suspension ” is personally and offici ally responsible for the disasters of last Tuesday—while the Sun, the World, the Herald and other papers attribute the whole to “General Rottenness,” who, they are well assured, has held supreme com mand of the Grant!te forces for years past.

The “Scant Effect” Fashion. “Ml IL B.;” the New York correspon dent of the St. Louis Republican, writes that tho “ertromest phase of the scant effect was reached by a lady who walked up Fifth avenue in a navy-blue camel’s- hair dress/ Not d puckeror a visible seam or a particle of trimming broke up the beautiful surface of that woman. She wai one unbending level, and how she got into that straight-jacket of a dress I couldn’t imagine till I took a rear view of her, and found ahe was buttoned up behind from neck to hem. Two unob trusive box-pleats larked in a shy way each side of the opening; otherwise that garment looked like a bloated pantaloon leg. And walk—well, she couldn’t walk very well, and in case of fire that woman would be fried in her own fat. You see, economy must begin somewhere. If cloth is used for the ruffs, why the skirt3 muse suffer, and mercy knows what is required for the big silk fences built up about tho female head just now.” Another funny thing about the “ big silk fences” is that they should come in simultaneously with the change in wear ing the hair. The latter hangs down and the .former stands up in a most ag gressive manner, and the two wage vig orous warfare. Why tho dickens didn’t ruffs come in when the hair was all raked up to the top of the head clean out of their way ? This is one of the things that no fellow can find out. ENGLISH AND AMERICAN BANKING The Difference In the Proportion of Coin and Paper Money. The Tribune, of Friday, has an article on tho Bank of England, from which we extract tho following. It exhibits, in a strong and very suggestive light, tho difference between a rotten and sound financial system. The Tribune says: The money of Great Britain consists of abou* two hundred and fifty million dol lars of paper and protmuijr rum nuudrea millions in coin. Excluding from the pa ler the one hundred millions issued by ihe Bank of England against gold coin and bullion, the proportion is one hundred and fifty million dollars of bank notes and four hundred million dollars in coin. Our money consists of seven hundred and fifty million dollars of irredeemable pa per, about fifty million dollars in coin in private hands, and fifty millions more locked up in the Treasury. We found no argment on these figures to prove the redundancy of the currency of the United States, but wo beg our readers to observe that the money of the most prosperous and wealthy nation in the world is com- coin to one-third nak notes. We are no advocates of a cast iron re serve. We think the reserve of a bank should be kept for use and not for orna ment. The trouble with our finance is aud always lias been tliat tho banks have never kept a sufficiently large reserve. They have never been able to stand a pressure. They toko men’s money and undertake to repay it at any moment on demand, but they deliberately put them selves in a position which makes it im possible for them to keep their word. It is all very well to say that if everybody wants money at the same instant it is mpossfble to pay everybody, yet there is still a difference between keeping on hand forty per cent, of what you agree to pay on demand and keeping only twenty per cent. The maxi mum percentage - of legal tender notes held by the New York banks as a reserve against the demands of their depositors has not ac any time within the last four years been equal to thirty per cent, of the r debts to depositors. On the 15th of October, the date of tho last re turn of the Bank of England received by mail, the reserve of notes and coin in the banking department, after haying been drawn down from sixty-six million dol lars to thirty-nine millions,** was still thirty-one per cent, of the public and pri vate deposits. The rate of ^ discount was then six per cent, (since raised to eight), showing that the proportion which our banks consider safe, indeed a proportion which they have never once reached for the hut four years, is regarded by the di rectors of the Bank of England as insuffi cient for the safe conduct of their busi ness. Tlie Malone Case, It is said that Milton Malone’s counsel have submitted a written motion fora new trial on two grounds—one of which is insanity. The motion for a new trial was over ruled, and we understand that a bill of exception to this ruling is now being pre pared, so that it is probable the case will go again to the State Supreme Court. Possibly from there to the Federal Su preme Court. The facts as stated above are gathered from counsel, the reporter not hating an opportunity of examining the papers, which are being used (it is supposed) by the prisoner’s counsel in the preparation of the bill of exceptions. It is probable that this motion for a new trial and the subsequent proceedings will at least lengthen out Malone’s span of life another twelve months, a thing of vast importance to him. The Dayton (Ohio) Journal predicts a guucral religious revival during the com- snd ! winter. The New York Sun hopes *till unsafe for absentees to re- ; t , tie prediction may prove correct if it should be a revival of real religion, bring ing with it truth, honest dealing and a sincere fear of God and of His laws. But if it is a revival of that -ort of religion which is practiced in many fashionable churches, and exemplified especially by the head with l no-called Christian statesmen and Chris- bonkers, the less of it the better.

Latest from the Yirginius Affair, Nothing of marked importance has oc curred to-day with reference to the Vir- ginius affair, with the exception of a dis patch from Minister Sickles, notifying the Secretary of State that the Spanish gov ernment had tele rraphed to the Captain- General, to stay all further proceedings tin* of th«* raptiws no.v inmstody. Minister Sickles was to have had an in terview to-day with the Spanish Minister of Foreign Affairs; but whether it took place or not was not known at a late hour this evening. Tho executions which recent ly occurred, are condemned in official cir cles as brutal. When all the facts attend ing it become known, should it appear that international law has been violated, immediate measures will be taken to maintain the dignity qf this Government; but the Secretary of State has no idea that tho Caste’ar Government will bo si*..* in mnlrA Hurt jreDuration, as far us is in its power, judging troin me ineuuiy disposition toward the United States and tho expressed desire to cultivate moro in timate relations of peace. The Secretary of State is represented as saying to-day, during an interview, with reference to tho reported execution of Santa Rosa, that he had not been officially advised of it; but that Santa Rosa had given him a good deal of trouble. He was, once before, condemned to death as a pirate. After consuming a ream of paper, and sending and receiving numerous cable dispatches this Government secured his re lease. Only a few weeks ago Santa Rosa wrote to the Secretary saying ho owed the preservation of his life to him; there fore the Secretary thought Santa R03& was not wise in again periling his safety.

New York, November 10.—A private letter, from a trustworthy source, dated Havana, 6th. says: An official telegram was yesterday received at the Palace from Puerto Principe, of an engagement between the Spanish forces and a column of insurgents, under the command of Sanguila, in whieh the insurgents were. severely beaten, losing twenty killed and eighty taken prisoners. The Spanish commander caused all prisoners to bo shot. Pa=a lo por las Armas, Governor of Puerto Principe, upon hearing of it took the command away from the Span ish commander and arrested 'Him, tele-' graphing the event to the Captain Gen eral. The • latter immediately tele graphed to Puerto Principe, causing the commander to be reinstated, and order- P the Governor to Havana. It is thought hero tliat the Governor feels un due sympathy towards the insurgents, through the influence of his wife, wlio is tho aunt of the late Arg.unonto.
