JUST A WORD
To all our Friends and
tlioFutolic G-cnerally.
The Wonderful Success and Brilliant Future of
Our Sunny South,
Ten thousand praises and the most
grateful acknowledgements are due to the
thousands of true-hearted Southerners
and good people everywhere, who have
stood by us and helped this enterprise
through the past four terrible years
Simultaneous with the debut of the
Sunny South as is too well-known,
began the financial panic which has
reigned with such relentless tyranny over
the entire nation, and under whose with
ering rod so many thousands of enterprises
and old established institutions h ive gone
down forever; but this paper continues
to live and is just now starting upon a
grander career than it has yet known.
And beginning as it did without money,
credit or resources and having trium
phantly surmounted the tens of thou
sands of difficulties which beset its way,
it now challenges the warmest sympathy
and most liberal patronage of all the
people. Its friends everywhere are ear
nestly entreated, now in the opening of
a promising business season, to give it a
hearty good push and introduce if into
every family.
It will be improved in every depart
ment, and ail the best talent of our
Southland will be concentrated in its
columns.
We give below a partial list of those
who will contribute during the present
season, and no journal ever presented a
more brilliant array of talent.

An Incident of Clara Morris, '
One ofonr pasters, writes Burleigh in a late New
York letter, sat in his parlor one afternoon. A lady
was Introduced, in elegant attire and of a prepos
sessing presence. She came to talk, she said, on
the subject of religion. A friend was anxious about
her soul. She had difllculties, and the visitor sta
ted what they were. And what shall I say to all
this? The pastor gave her such advice as he thought
was suited to the case, and said, in return: “To
what church do you belong?” “I belong to no
ehurcli,” was the response. “I am an actress, and
i do not suppose that any church would receive
me.” Why then do you take so much interest in
your friend?” “My friend is anxious about her
soul, and I am desirous to lead her to Jesus if I can,
though X may not be worthy myself.” Many peo
ple are certain thatdtt actress can have no religious
emotions. But here is a popular woman—herself
excluded from grace, in her own judgement—seek
ing help for her friend to Jesus.” The minister is
an eminent pastor; the actress was Clara Morris.
Mrs. J. S. Hammond, of Baltimore, nee Belle
Boyd, of the Virginia Valley, has secured a prom
ise from Mr. J. W. Albaugh, the efficient, courteous
and popular manager of the Holliday street Thea
tre, that he will give her one week, if not more,
during the earlier portion of 1879. Mrs. Hammond
has procured a beautiful domestic play, replete
with Womanly virtues and womanly determina
tion, in which she proposes to make her debut in
Baltimore. It lias never been produced on any
stage. Mrs. Hammond will essay the heroine of
the new piece, and those who liave seen her fine
figure, attractive face, and graceful carriage, and
have listened to her undeniably fine elocutionary
powers, greatly enhanced by a voice of wondrous
force, cannot doubt her success upon the dramatic
stage. Due notice of the precise time of her ap
pearance will be given.
Is the President a Tramp J—'The following
from the Baltimorean is good: President Hayes,
like tlie restless old woman in Mother Goose s
Melodies, who could “never be quiet,” is constant
ly moving from one point ofthecountry to another,
as if he were the President ol'the “tramps,” instead
of President of the United States. It is true that
lie tramps at the public expense, and in a very,
comfortable and pleasant fashion, but high-toned
though he be in his mode of traveling, he is none
the less a tramp for all that.
Mrs. R. Wilier, it will be remembered by readers
of Dickens, had a special aversion to being
‘•pounced upon, - ’as she called it, by her children.
President Hayes seems to delight in pursuing to
wards the country this extremely obnoxious and
objectionable course of conduct. After a llight of
thousands of miles or so, lie will light for a moment
on the White House, from whence at tlie next
without a i.ote of warning, lie will “pounce” down
upon the country again with tlie utmost sudden
ness, and to the complete discomfiture of liis un
happy victims.
Various hypotheses have been suggested to ac
count tor the President's tramp-like proclivities.
.Some persons are of the opinion that he is trying
to solve the problem of perpetual motion. Others
think the memory of tlie frauds that made him
President are constantly rising before his mind,
like Banquo’s ghost, and shaking the Louisiana
Returning Board at him, thus murdering rest and
quiet; while others’N^ain are inclined to believe
that lie distributes himself about tlie country in
this promiscuous and uncomfortable manner from
a natural maliciousness of disposition, which maites
him taken fiendish delight, and exultation in bor
ing forty millions of so-called freemen.
For our part we do not coincide with any of these
theories, hut are of the opinion that Mr. Hayes is
simply a monomaniac on tlie subject of fairs. It
wit! be remembered that lie was comparatively
quiet and rational until he commenced attending
fairs, and that his peculiar conduct lias dated from
tlie period when he was unwisely allowed by his
private secretary the privilege of attending these
dangerous and demoralizing exhibitions. From
that time tlie madness has been on him, and it lias
been impossib !e to keep him at the White House*
His insanity is harmless enough m most respects,
simply inducing in him tlie belief that he is Pres
ident of all the fairs in the country, and that his
official duties call him to these exhibitions, not to
Washington. He feels uneasy in his mind when
not at a fair, and has a notion that he is not dis
charging his duty by the country, unless presiding
over a plowing match, or deciding on the merits of
rival bulls.
What has shaken the poor gentleman's reason,
it is hard to sav, but it is evident to our minds t
be is not right. However, no harm can come
the Republic, for the President's Secretary is am
able to take care both of the President and of "
country. 1 -
Ill-gotten Gold.—“Gold well gotten is bright
and fair; but there is gold which rusts and cankers.
The stores of the man who walks according to the
will of God are under a special blessing; but the
stores which have been unjustly gathered are ac_
cursed. ‘Your gold and your .silver are cankered
and the rust of them shall be a witness against you,
and shall eat up your flesh as tire.’ Far better have
no gold at all, than gold with that curse upon it.
Far better let cold pinch this frame, or lilinger gnaw
it, than that the rust of ill-gotten gold should eat it
up as fire. Perhaps you may, once or twice in your
life, have passed a person whose countenance struck
you with painful amazement. It was the face of;a
man, with features as of flesh and blood, but all
hue of flesh and blood was gone, and the whole vis.
age was overspread with a dull, silver gray, and a
mysterious metallic gloss. You felt wonder, you fel t
curiosity; but a deep impression of the unnatural
made pain the strongest feeling of all which the
spec-table excited. FVni Jouir^ jt_ was a poor man,
\\'7o in disease, mu* i a k. e?i mercury till it transfused
itself througn his skin, and glistened in his face.
Now go where he will, he exhibits tlie proof of his
disorder, and of the large quautity of metal lie has
consumed. If you had an eye, to see the souls that
are about you, many would you see—alas! too many
—who are just like that; they have swallowed doses
of metal—till all purity and beauty are destroyed.
Of all poisons and plagues, the deadliest you can
admit to your heart is gain which fraud has won.
The curse of the Judge is in it; thecurseof tlie.Judge
will never leave it; it is woe and withering, and
cleat li to you; it will eat you up as fire; it will witness
against you; ay, were that poor soul of yours, at this
Troubles from Money. -In tlie inordinate de
sire to amass money, nine-tenths of all tlie troubles
of life originate. It is the duty of every one to try
by all honest means to make a living, and as the
time may arrive in the life of all when sickness or
misfortune.'or disability may overtake us, it is al
ways desirable to be careful and prudent, and try to
lay up a little means to prevent suffering and want
when misfortune overtakes us. But the idea is ei—
uineous that it is the main object of life to hoard up
money. The man that has spent a life in amassing
and building up a colossal fortune at the expense of
the feelings, the interests, and the prosperity of oth
ers, does not enjoy a more happy and quiet life nor a
more peaceful death than tlie beggar.
Money may command influence,and help to puff
a poor mortal up, and cause him to be vain and os
tentatious, but it never compensates fora life spent
in trampling upon the rights and feelings of others'
If there was more of a desire to live and enjoy life’
and todo equal justice toall, less avarice, more hon
esty, more consideration for and interest in neigh
bors and friends, and less grasping after money,
there would be less misery, more happiness, longer
and happier lives. Let the miser hoard liishonestly
or ill gotten gains, but do you live with an eye to
comfort, and with a proper respect to the rights o*
others, and we assure you that you will live a 'hap
pier and a longer life.
NVliat Makes us Old.—A pleasant, cheerful,
generous, charitable-minded person is never old-
His or her heart is as young at sixty or seventy as
it was at eighteen or twenty; and they who are old
at sixty or seventy are not made old by time. They
are made old by the ravages of passion, and feeliug s
of au unsocial and ungenerous nature, which liave
cankered their minds, wrinkled their spirits and
withered their souls. They are made old by envy,
by jealousy, by hatred, by uncharitable feelings, by
slandering, scandalizing, ill-bred habits, which, if
they avoid, they preserve their youth to the very
last, so tiiat tlie child shall die as tlie Scripture says,
a hundred years old. There are many old women
who pride themselves on being eighteen or twenty.
Pride is an old passion, and vanity is gray as tlie
mountain; they are dry, heartless, dull, cold, indif
ferent; they want the well-spring of youthful affec
tion, which is always cheerful, always active, al
ways engaged in some labor of love that is calcula
ted to promote and distribute enjoyment. There is
an old age of the heart that is possessed by many
who have no suspicion t lint there is anything old
about them,and there is a youth which nevergrows
old, a lover who is ever a boy, a Psyche who is ever
a girl.
Hopkinsville Ky. has lately been quite gay
and festive. The annual fair furnished the oc
casion for enjoyable hops and other entertain
ments. A number of young ladies are visiting
the town, among them Miss Mary Casseday of
Nashville and Mrs. Botherland of Henry
county Ky.
A most enjoyable Lawn Party and Concert
was given at the Calico House Atlanta this
week by the Proprietress Miss Lila Howard.
There was perfect moonlight, delightful prome
nading good music and other attractions.
Mrs. Mary E. Bryan who it was announced
would tavor the company with a recitation of
her Poem Azrael and Evangel, was prevented
from attending by illness in her family.
All the Agricultural Societies of Austin coun
ty, Texas, met at Bellvelle on the 12th inst.
They are having a new second crops of apples
and strawberries in Texas. Near Lexington,Ya.,
strawberries are also so plentiful that they
think of having a strawberry church festival
and getting President Hayes to make a nice lit
tle speech. The second crop is somewhat sug
gestive of a second term—an ardent admirer
might bring in the allusion.

Tlie Family Circle.—What a simple,{beautiful,
powerful institution it is! The nursery and prepar
atory school of the affections and moral sentiments
of our nature—what an incalcuabie influence it
brings to bear upon the development of our best ca
pabilities !
Take, for example, the relation of parents to chil.
dren; submission to right authority; trust in a
higher wisdom and a stronger power than their
own—love answering to love, meeting it sometimes
as a monitor, sometimes as a playmate, and uncon
sciously becoming assimilated to it; is it possible to
conceive an atmosphere more exquisitely adapted
to quicken in young souls the innate germs of that
moral and spiritual life which is destined to find its
highest object in the disclosures to it of tlie father
hood ofheaven?
We often speak of tlie sanctities of home. Literal
ly, as well as figuratively, our characterization of it
is true; for it is there that those affections are first
elicited, exercised and expanded, which in due time,
and unless perverted by evil, will be tilled with the
fullness that flows from the uncreated source, and
that will constitute our sublimer life when the
present initiatory one lias passed away.
Tiie family circle is a scenic representation to
young hearts ot that higher world of relationships
wherein humanity is to reach its perfection; and
the unquestioning obedience we yield to earthly pa
rents, our implicit trust in them, our unreserved
love ofthem, are, in their first exercise, just those
susceptibilities of our nature which in their last wil;
unite us forever.
Our training for immortality begins witli our first
recognition of the right to command which tlie
tones of a father’s voice express, with the first ap
preciation of the love which plays in a mother’s
smile. True, we .frustrate but effectually these sim-
precise moment, to pass into tlie presence of its 1 l’lest preparations for what we should be hereafter.
Judge, the proof of its money-worship would be as
clear on its visage, as tiie proof tiiat tlie man we
have described has taken mercury is strikingly plain
upon him.
but it is not tlie less true that it is in the family cir
cle that we liave acquired those primary sentiments
which constitute the very substratum of subjective
religion.
The Smart 'Woman.—Our English cousins
fond ofridicuiing our frequent use of the convenient I
little adjective above, but they fail to provide us
with a substitude in any degree adequate to the
manifold requinnents so bravely met by it. Tlie
word clever is tlie nearest approach to its crispness
which they would allow us, and that falls far short
of the mark, and at the time overshoots it,—-mean
ing at once too much and too little.
At all events, theadjective“smart” Is the proper
one to be used in describing the wonderful combi
nation of tact and talent, engery, wisdom and exec,
utive ability, whose praises are Lore set forth. Be
ing almost exclusively a Yankee product, it is quit e
fair that she should be described by a Yankee adjec
tive.
The smart woman is the pride of her husband, a
strong tower of strength to her children, and the
envy and admiration of all her friends, who sigh
over their own accumulated piles of work, and
numberless half-finished or wholly neglected du_
ties, and wonder “how on earth Amanda accom
plishes so much !” And verily it isa wonder; for tlie
smart woman is never behindhand with any of her
multifarious duties. Her spring, summer, autumn
and winter sewing is always finished in advance o 1
the season. Shirts for pater-familias, little frocks
and skirts for tlie children, dresses and underwear
are always “made up" and readv for use before they
are wanted. Her children are always tidy and welj
bell ved, lier house aimodel of neatness and taste
her table always fin’s* shed with well cooked food
lier cake is always light, her pastry always tender
and toothsome, her canned fruit always “keeps,”
and her jelly always “jells.”
In duties outside of her homecircleshe is equally
ellicient. She visits the poor and tlie sick and often
with her own hand ministers to their necessities
Sheris active in the church ofwhich she isa member
and if a fair is projected to raise funds to buy a new
organ, or a new anything, she makes more tidies
and pincushions than anybody else, and sells them
at higher prices. She always invites the pastor a nd
his family to dine with lier on Thanksgiving and
Christmas days, ’ and intersperses delicious , teas
throughout the year.
Moreover the smart woman is intellectual! She
can quote Kant and Hegel and Shakspeare, and
Browning, and Tennyson, and she knows the Bible
by heart. She reads the newspapers, too, and un
derstands all political complications, great and small
from the Presidential muddle to Tweed’s inglorious
career. She knows all about the Alormons, and the
Indians, and the freedmen, and Texas, and Louisi
ana, and the Black Hills, and Florida and the re
turning Boards! She can talk upon any subject from •
metapysies to mouse-traps, from religion and poe
try to the fit of a basque.’ She can play the organ
and piano, and can always find time to practice, and
never has a cold when she is asked to sing. Her ac
complishments! are numberless,her temper is sweet
but a little hasty sometimes. Her strength and
vigor are wonderful and her virtues are priceless.
What a pity it is there are so few of her!
Movements in Southern So
ciety.
Mr. James Hay—a promising young lawyer
of Lexington, Ya., was married last week to one
of the loveliest girls of .Rockingham, Ya.—Miss
Constance Tatum. The elite oi the latter town
witnessed the ceremony performed at the Epis
copal church by Rev. Barr, its pastor. The bri
dal party left immediately for Lexington.
The ladies of Lexington, Ya. gave a Martha
Washington Tea Party on last Friday evening
for the benefit of the Yellow Fever sufferers.
They realized over sixty dollars by their Tab
leaux ot last week given for the same charitable
purpose.
On the loth day of October, the Shenandoah
Yalley Agricultural Fair begins at Winchester,
Ya. An immense crowd is expected. Presi
dent Hayes, Gov. Holliday, Gen. W. H. Lee,
Speaker Randall and other distinguished guests
will be present. Of course there will be any
amount of speeches.
In New Orleans last week, tickets for a large
ball were given out; citizens complained that
the music and dancing would disturb the many
fever patients sick near the hall in which the
ball was to be given and the Mayor and police
crushed the heartless effort to make merry amid
so much mourning.
Prof. Schultz and his accomplished wife
Mad. Yonder Hoya Schultz, gave one of their
admirable concerts in Atlanta on Thursday
evening at the Professor’s music hall. The
duett on piauo and violin between these two
fine artists, was in itself a magnificent musical
feast. It was followed by performances, instru
mental and vocal by a number of the Professor's
puptls—an admirable and varied selection, ren
dered with grace and skill. Miss Castleberry's
singing was a prime feature of the evening. ‘Lit
tle’ Ona’s fresh, young voice soars free and clear
as a bird’s. Miss Mabel Haynes was slightly
hoarse, but her singing bore witness to the ar
tistic culture she has bestowed on her fine vocal
powers.
A liberal citizen of Gordonsville who prefers
to remain unknown has tendered to Virginia
girls five scholarships at Gordonsville Female
Institute.
The Methodist Sunday School of Griffin, gave
a varied entertainment for the benefit of the
yellow fever sufferers, lately. There were some
excellent recitations and beautiful chorus and
solo songs. Griffin is a live little town and its
College under Prof, and Mrs. Niles and its se
lect school under Miss Porter, are both flourish
ing. Its newspapers are anything but dull.
The yonng co-Editor of the Griffin News, is not
only a wide awake journalist, but one of the most
popnlar society yonng men in the town. So
j the girls say.
Let every one avail himself of tlie
following remarkable propositions and
secure his reading matter for the next
twelve months. Such inducements have
never before been offered to the public.
' Any paper or magazine may be secured
in connection witli the Sunny South at
very nearly the price of one, and spe
cial attention is invited to the unparal
leled offer. Other publications will be
added to this list. The amounts oppo-
positc the papers mentioned will secure
both for one year, postage prepaid.
