It is pleasant to hear a smiliag woman remark : ‘We had nothing at all when we married, but see uow how cosy we have made our house.’ This means that there has been cheer tul hard work on the one side, thrift and self denial on the other. Iu fact, union. After all, the yoke of mar liage is in aparatus that should sit on two pairs of shoulders, and there is nothing very seemly in seeing a girl wait to wear her own part of it until it has beeu nicely padded with quilted satin. My advice to young people who must puss through long engagements is to see as little of each other as pos sible; and iikewise to correspond sparingly. Quarrels are easily hatch ed even on paper, and they are al most sure to arise if any exchange of love letters be commenced at the rate of one a day, or one a week. This pace is too fast to last. 1 should say that one letter ii fortnight was ample. If this wise abstemiousness from the use of pen and ink be tried, if the loving pair see each other but two or three times a year, at Christmas, at Est<ir, for perhaps half a week during the summer, and if during the sepa ration they remind one another pret tily of iheir reciprocal affection by gifts of flowers, trinkets, nicely hem med pocket handkerchiefs und well woiked slippers in worsted, then the r< cky time of a long engagement may pi BSibly be sailtd through, without accidents. Nevertheless, all this leads up to repeat mg that, when two young people have made «p their minds to marry, tne sooner they do so the bet ter. ir thal Timber,” rhe “’I'lte wanton rest* 1)1 Geo! teiitioc of soms restric the relentless old custom land and every sect! ‘•If • Preserve Your (Hi Register cays: otlon of the for* mi»g the at oughtfni, and put u ’• axe. out tbs old new groaud upon The fitto , for en an raiTfehcetf- A Hickory Flat 0>rr«apoitdeut Utvoa kts Y Isia on the Stock Law ^ptosttou.

The following are reasons why I think we should have Sunday-Schools: 1st. Because Solomon said “Train up a child in the way he should go, and when liu is old he will not depart from it.” And the Lord naid “Bring their, up in the Corput Certiorari. Abstract of case. Corput began two actions ou account in the Justice Court, 342d District, G. M., «r Laurens county, before David P. Itobiusou, a commissioned Notary Pub* lie of that district, against Taruley. Tlia actions were brought fur the fourth Tues day ia July, 1879, and ou said fourth Tuesday judg- uieuta were rcudered against said defendant. Deh-ndant ap peal t*d in said court aud died hie plea to the jurisdiction ut said court, allt-ainir that nul l court could not legally and con stitutionally sit on said fourth Tuesday, tn-cauKU there had already been a Hitting of said court in said district, to-wit: Oa the second Tuesday previously, and that said court had not been adjourned from the second to the fourth Tuesday, but had ocen adjourned from said second iticsduy iu July to the second Tuesday In August, the next succeeding term, and all the business in said court was finish ed . The court overruled the defendant'# pioa. Defendant tbeu moved to consoli date the two said cases, as both of ihem did nut reach the sum of fifty dollara, and both were accounts between the name parties. The court overruled defendant's motion, aud rendered separate judge ments, With cost. Defendant filed his petition for certiorari, which was sanc tioned by Hon A C. Pate, Judge ot the Superior court, on the 26ih of July 1879, upon two grounds, viz. (in sulmunce): 1. That two courts could not be legally held in the same month, in the same dis trict. iu the same county, One by a Jus tice of the Peace and the other by a com missioned Notary. Public. >. Thn the li w did not sanction a mul tiplicity of suits, and that the same be consolidated when they do not roach the jurisdiction of the court. Said oer- tioraria was heard at the Octo'wr term, l*7t, of Laurens Superior Court, Judge Martin L. Mi-rshon, of the Brunswick Circuit, presiding, by agreement both parties waiving any answer from the court below, and agretiog that the facte 52? Tuesdsy was the regularly cstabliacd court by the Justice ot the reace; that it had been held on the second Tuesday, finished all the businos in said court and regularly adjourned to the second Tues day in August, the regular monthly sit ting. Thu said Judge Martin L. Aferskon upon healing the same, dismissed said certiorari, deciding that the Justice of the Pence and the commtssiond Nota ry Public in the saute district in each couuty of the State ot Georgia could hold separate courts monthly, to-wlt, on nurture aud adinruitiun of the Lord." 'the second and on the fourth Tuesday The Sunday school is the right place to comply with these commandments, from tiio fact that some parents arc not com petent to give tliu religious instructions that children so much need; aud also, fron; the shameful fact that many that do know neglect it. Children will learn something somewhere, either good or bad. Better it is tocarry them up to the house of the Lord and teach them lessons that will he beneficial through life, and cause them to be happy in Eternity, than to let them grow up in wickedness to fill our prisons, to bring the tears of grief irom our eyes, and bring disgrace on us when we are in the grave, and themselves go do%u to ruin in the end. ‘These reasons are sufficient to prompt us to keep up Sunday-schools, and keep our children in them. But let us not forget home training. Every man is lord of his own hou-c, and God will hold him re- | sponsible for the way he governs it. So let us work while it is duy, for the night is coming. L.

We learn that, in accordance with instructions received yesterday, the supervisor finds it necessary to ap point a much greater number of enumerators than he anticipated* The fewer the days occupied ill tak ing the census the fewer the chan ges in the population during the time, und the more accurate the re^ suit. Hence, the census superin tendent has decided on smaller sub divisions than the Jaw requires. As each enumerator must live io his subdivision, it will be well lor every applicant to send in the name of militia district or city ward in which he resides. The supervisor thinks an active man will earn about $3 a day ms enumerator. Couuty papers please copy. Gen. Lucius j.
