TO THE YOUNG MEN OF CECRCIA.
Every year a great many boys
leavo Georgia to attend colleges fur
ther north. Is this advisable? It is
argued tliat some of the northern col
leges are better equipped and gradu
ate better scholars. In some respects
perhaps they have slight advantagein
apparatus, end, possibly, professors;
but history, We think, will bear us out
in the statement that the men who
h ive achieved the greatest success in
Georgia were, and are, men who have
graduated from our State institutions.
There is no trouble for a boy to re
ceive a thorough training in the col
leges of Georgii, if he will apply
himself. If he will not he lias n«i

this world is friendship, and there i

another State, lie leaves his alma
mater, and as the doors close behind
him he breaks the closest associations
of life ami returns to find himself al
most a stranger in his own home.
To illustrate by an instance from
our own great University, it is often
remarked that ‘‘it is hard to defeat a
University man before the legisla
ture.” And why? Simply because
be lias so many friends all o\
Georgia. And these friends are
tower of strength, not only in politics,
but in every fi. Id of human labor.
Young men of Georgia, patronize
your home institutions! How wel
they can fit you for life is read o

A QUESTION OF LAW
Can a wife open the private corres
pomh'iiee of her husband without hi;
knowledge or consent? Our court
have decided that she cannot. Tin
case was this. A wife suspected her
husband of carrying on corres]
deuce with another woman and so
opened some of his letters and found
that her surmise was correct.
She sued for a divorce and brought
in e\ ideiicc. some of her husband s
loving missives to the other woman.
The husband appealed to the court
lor a recovery of the letters and they
were returned t«» him.
It was argued against this decision
that husband and wife are one; hut it
was shown that, at common law, this
one is always the husband, On the
other side it was argued that recent
statutes have given so many rights to
married woman as to create for her an
independent legal identity! So that
for the j lower to use her discretion
with her property the married woman
must surrender the pleasure of way
laying the husband’s correspondence.
Happily hu.-band and wife are very
generally one in affection if not at
has to sit for months every year, on
the bench in hearing crises: so it is
utterly impossible, under the present
pressure of work, for our Supreme
Court judges to do more than render
brief dec isions with only an occasional
elaboration.
This is to he deplored and is in
great contrast to the Supreme Court
of years ago, when Joseph Henry
Lumpkin, Hiram Warner and E. A.
Nisbet, not pressed by an overcrowd
ed docket, had time to study out and
deliver opinions which to day rank
high among all students of the law,
and are gems of legal lore and judi
cial acumen. The Georgia reports
were then studied and quoted in all
• »f the states, hut to Jay they are scarce
ly more than a great mass of decisions
with little of the principles of law and
the beauty of language to attract tlie
student or arrest the attention of the
practiced lawyers.

awarding contracts for army blankets
to an English manufacturer. It now

amy blankets from foreign manufac

and gave the contract to American

SOME REASONS WHY-
Why art* wages s«> much high*
tec ted America than in free trade
gland?” a>k the men who attrihut
TV blessing of this favored land to
high taxes.
These are some of the reasons why :
Because the United States have an
area of 3,tHH),00<) square miles of ter
itory, while Great Britain lias hut
11*1,570.
Because the United States have a
population of only fourteen to the
mare mile, while Great Britain has
2>S9 people crowded upon the same
pace.
Because the United States contain
over 4.000,000 farms that produced in
1879 a value of over *$2,213,000,000,
while Great Britain is subject to the
;e of entailed estates and vast un
productive preserves.
Because the United States have
150,000 miles of railway, while Great
Britain has but 19.000.*
Because tho United States are
richer in mines, quarries, forests and
ther natural produ. tions, and offer a
;reater diversity of climate, soil and
mployment to their inhabitants than
any other country in the world.
Because, in addition to this greater
field and demand for labor, the intelli
gence, energy and productive skill of
our working people surpass these of
any other nation.
These are some of the reasons why
wages are higher here than in Eng
land, have always been so, under low-
tariffs ami high tariffs alike, and
would he so if there were no tariff.—

TO *‘HE ATHENS COTTON TRA?E*
It is a generally accepted fact that
the cotton trade of Athens has been
for a number of years prosperous and
growing. Each season has seen its
predecessor outdone in the matter of
receipts and our warehouses have been
constantly tilled to overflowing with
cotton from new territories, success
fully invaded by the enterprise of our
merchants. The prices paid in Atli-
ns are admittedly the best in tlie
State; the result of perfect system
and far-reaching correspondence with
the spinner trade of every nation.
It has been the aim of every one
connected with the trade to keep
charges at a minimum; to deal with
absolute fairness in all transactions
and to infuse that spirit of mutual
confidence so necessary to commercial
credit and success in all business!
Trickery of any sort has been scorned
by our jieople, and ‘‘liis word is V : s
bond” has been the motto.
Unwittingly we believe, on the
part of those responsible for it, there
has. however, crept into our trade a
custom which, must he put a stop to; a
custom which from all information, is
peculiar to the cottonTerritory contig
uous to, ai:d trading with Athens, a
\ custom which has grown into an evil,
acd which is hurting our good name.
