Ga., March 25th, 1881 Editor Adtahci :—Will you kindly allow me space in your valu- ble paper to say a few words in be half of education: Being a teacher by profession it is a subject of great iuterest to me, and should interest every man in this oountry. Especi ally in the 8oath where illiteracy prt vails so extsnsivcly. Every on# mast concede that with out system nothing can be acoom plished in any nvooation, especially is this true in teaching. It matters not how fltly qualified a man may t» fer imp King whai he knows to oth era, yet if system it wanting the ad vancement of hia pupils is continual If impeded. To this want of sys tsm, and inclination (of those who have control of the edooational in tsrests of the oonntry) continually to ohnrge the text books used in our common schools is this illiteracy chitfly attributable. It is rumored in this section that au effort will be made nt the next meeting of the Board of Educntion of Cherokee county to induce that body to tt-jrcl Appleton’s Headers snd adopt McGuffry’s. Whilst I am pertonally acquainted with bat two members of thnt body, from reputa tion I know them all, and therefore couclude that they are men of too much sense to indulge in such cbilds piny to teject that which was but a few months ago adopted: and adopt that which was as reoently recently rejected by the Board of Ed ucation of this county. The action of ti e Board whiefc adopted the Ap pleton Readers was a wise action. These reader* for gradation, subject, interest and durability stand unri* vailed by any readers ever brought before the public, and if left to have full sway, will gteutly aid in leading the youth of this benighted state out of the mazy labyrinth of perpetual darkness, and place them upon an equal footing with their more favor ed btothers of other climes. Another thing that ought to be taken into consideration is 'he ex pense. It costs something to huv new boitks, the schools in this sec tion are all using Appletons Head- and the patrous do not wish to buj new ones, and they can not be cen sured for it. Let us have no change in text-.books, we have the best and we are satisfied. I am no puid advocate or Apple* ton*e tenders, I never told one in my life uor do I expect to sell one. This has been written in the interest of Cherokee comity, of which I am a citizen and for the good of a cause I do much love, More anoo. Consistency. The quotation from our last week’s issue included in the letter below is a brief statement of the report which come’s to us in regard to “Three-fin gered Jack." We thought it im proper to use oonvicts for guards even inside of other guard lines, bnt were told that it is a custom that prevails generally; hence supposed it possible that the camp refered to was not an exception. We know hothing personally nbont the matter, and if injustice has been done CspL Phillips, or the company, wo regret it, and admit hia letter by way of making amends. [Littir.], Editor Chkrokkk Advanck— Dtar Sir:—I notice in your issue of March 24th, an editorial, stating that Throe Fingered Jack,” one of the wliito convicts, escaped from the gang on the M. AN. Ga. R. II. last Sunday morning. He, it is said, had been on guard (r) the night before and failed to put In an appearance in the morn^ ing.” I write this to ask you not to pub lish anything in regard to my camp, without you know it to.be true. It is out lawful for couvicts to act m guards, and I never use one lor that purpose; and auch reports are cal culated not only to injure the com pany by wbioh I am employed, but to refleot discredit on me. Respectfully, W. W. Phillips, Bapt Liquid or Dry. Some people prefer to purchase medi* ciues in the dry state so that they caa see for themselves that tl.ey are purely vege table. Others have net the time or de sire to prepare the medicine, and with it already to use. To accommodate each class the proprietors of Kidney-Wort now offer that well-known remedy in both Liquid and Dry forma. *old by draggist* everywhere.—Truth. > - on tho. wealth they., bays sqccfdered. There is but so much money in the world. The oftener it cImage* hands the better for every one and the grand, aggregate. To describe the past winter were like describing the gout to a man who has been howling with it fbr months Think mercy, we may now epeat of It in the past tense. With the cxoeptiea #f the Street Cleaning Bureau, the people of this city have emerged from the winter with honor, if not much alee, The tene ment house population can presently crawl out from their garrets and nailers and toko a sniff of freah East River air* flavored with the odor* from Hunter'a Point, while the landlords ascertain why It isn’t werth whi's to put fresh coots of paint and kelsomlns An the sepulchres they rout to ths poor. Windows are opened here and that* at midday, and the •un actually proves hia warmth o*a the backs of citizens who wear black ooat* as they faco northward at noon: Tha grass in the City Hall Park wifi soon bear gentle spring knocking aad peep eut to see if there Is a chance for say grqen thing besides the lambs 4n Wall street. Wo launch oar aballopa upon the new season—a season of disaster, any the old crows in the dead trees of proph ecy. But let us never believe the crows, who care more for corn than truth. The state of suspeaee la which the street has been kept during tki peat week as to the decision of the new Secretary of the Treasury upon tha question of restor ing to »he banka tha legal tenders sur rendered while tha sword of Damocles, the vested Funding Bill, was suspended above their heads, baaeagendaoed n fool ing of uneasiness, under which It ia sur prising that prices should havs maintain ed themselves so wall. This hm been due to the fact that ths restoration of tha currency ia simply a qaastkm ef time, as eithsr ths banka, which aow apply fbr it, or others, wilt, as I have before stated* eagerly become petlttaaars therefor. The firmness of the coal stocks and tha influx of foreign gold have likewise been encouraging factors, and the probable iacreaee over oar laat year’s unparalleled immigration, more particularly from tha German Scandinavian Static, has not bean un parcel ved by the foresight ed. AoecsT* OUTLINE PROGRAMME —sou vita cntiM ov— Tho Doctora Disagree as to the best methods sad remedies, for the care oi constipation and disordered liver and kidneys. But those that have used Kidn ey-Wort agree that it is by fsr OUR NEW YORK LETTER (From our regular eoneapOndeut.) Naw Yona, March 10th 1881—Go tham ia in a condition of ferment. Pol itics, religion, aesthetics and tramps have each its share ia the disturbiug elements and the grim monster list don* his full part in upsetting the calculations aad traversing tbe hopes of men. A well-known writer, actuated by ei tber tbe good uatuie of correspondents or by that dazed adulation of wealth which clouds tho American mind, speaks of State Senator Astor as "son ot the great Astors.” Great, for what f Not a single member of the family ever gave an indication of courage, charity, intel lect, or any form ofbraiussave to have and to hold, and to re-invest the fortune the old Dutch furrier earned for them and which tbe uncontrollable prosperity of New York city—a city towards which they contribute absolutely nothing save high and inexorable rents—has doubled twico for them. Jay Gould, Vanderbilt and Belmont rob tha multitude, maybe, when their exchequer needs replenishing* like tbe feudal dukca of Burgundy, or even the robber barons of the Rhine, but they are also generous to their retainers No! there is no great Astor. It is estimated that $30,000,000 a year Is spent in New York for pleasure alone. The social philosophers are much exer cised at this apparently wanton outlay of money. There who are fond of figuring up how much ef tho necessaries of life $80,000,000 would purchase lose sight of I the substantial fact that is no other way could the general public realize so much upon the surplus wealth of the rich. Money is spent by those who have it to spend. Between the two, tho rich spend thrift is a greater benefactor of this kind than the miserly individual who hoards his wcaltii iu real estate and bonds. I like to see men and as well dressed as they can afford. 1 like to see them spend money for satins suppers, balls, theatres and carriages sua building magnificent houses. For behind all this stands the honest mechanic, tbe tradesman, his wife and children, his clerks salesmen and operators and three »r four removes of worthy beneficiarios. I like to know that iu New York alone $$6,000,000 is annually expended for pleasure. For then I know that through tha pleasure of this single «lt| a million worthy peo ple Ata benefited, and perhaps more than half a million tkajaby obtain by tleir In dustries the necessaries of lifo.
