Another Dooly county negro took the shot gun route fer the next world Wednesday night. A negro turpentine band and his wife had a row some time since and separated. Wednesday after noon he went to where she was and persuaded her to go back and live with him. While on their way to his house another negro man came and finding out the lay of the land persuaded her to change her mind and go back with him instead of going home with her erstwhile husband. This so enraged him that he turned and shot the de spoiler of his matrimonial felicity, killing him instantly. Bailiff Levi Bush of that district caught the murderer but after wards let him escape. Dtoly County Bar Association. Through the kindness of our ever obliging Tax Receiver we are At the request of Judge W. H.

R, Crum, Secretary. The object of the association was to adopt a code of rules to be strictly adhered to in the practice before our Superior court and to assign cases for trial during each day of the term. A code of rules was adopted and each member has a copy that no confusion may occur. The cases on the dockets were all assigned for trial on certain days and several hundred lists of these assignments will be printed and each attorney will see that each of his clients and the wit nesses on each of his cases have a I copy that they may know when to attend.

The program was quite entertaining and said to have been one of the best that has yet been produced. This club is bringing out much latent talent among our gentlemen and ladies and is a suc cessful s eip.l institution. If they are really only worth 58 cents, then, that is the price you pay for the Progress a year. First come, first served, but will try to find time for all. W T e are informed by the clerk and treasurer of the council, Mr. J. J. Stovall, that a large number of the white people of the town and nearly all of the negroes fail ed to return their property for taxation. This is a very hard time to have to pay a double tax. All, or nearly all, of our people are in favor of bimettalism but are divided as to the plan. Some say, repeal the Sherman law with out substitute, while others are only in favor of repeal by way of substitute. They all say give us the platform pledges. Mr. D. B. Leonard shipped a few barrels of pears north a few days ago to a commission merchant.

V,Harvard, Making due allowance for the effect of the . democratic institu tions of Greece, the salubrity of its climate, the comparative purity of its mythology and the natural emo tion and genius of its people; we may ascribe to the schools of its phiosophers, the universities of its times, that intellectual pre-emi nence which it enjoyed over all contemporary nations. England is indebted to her two universities for the mighty intellect and the massive learning which have raised her to the foremost place among nations, and which will transmit her name, in splendor, to the remotest posterity. The universities of Germany have developed a race of intellect ual giants, who rule*right royally the empire of mind. To what is New England indebt ed for her admitted intellectual pre-eminence over other portions of the Union? Her barren soil, her ungenial climate and thecontinuitv of manual toil^ exacted from her people by the wants of her teeming population, are surely not the instrumentalities which have achieved or even aided in her ele vation, but the impediments, rather over which her institutions have enabled her to triumph in her inarch to that bright eminence on which she aits, the intellectual cynosure of our country. . Mind, unlike its fabled patron ess, comes not forth at once a matured creation. Though of ce lestial lineage, its alliance is with the dust. It can not, as the eagle mounts to his eyrie, scale the steep ascent which leads to the cerulean heights of knowledge. On the ;ontrary, like the alluvial soils vhich gather their richness from the annual deposits of fertilizing •streams, it collects its treasure by! One of Rev. G. W.

So. mind must be raised from th<?lhvel rjlain of mediocrity by faciliSes increasing in number and variety, with the increase of its wasting energies and enlarging attainments. High seminaries of learning do more a’ AttitihHi Shun to develop its gifted intellects; they 7 elevate the great mass* of its mind and give it new impulses and nobler aspirations. As the moon in her trails** over the ocean raises the whole volume of waters, reaching and drawing up, by her attractive energy, the lowest as well as the up permost particles; so these institu tions extend their influence down into the depth of the ocean of mind, elevating all its grades, de veloping Eaddten treasures and drawing up the gems of genius which, but for their agency, might have lain dim and lustreless in the unseen retreats below. One great mind developed and sent forth from the university be comes a sun in the intellectual firmament, illuminating the val leys as well as the mountain tops of society. Thousands of inferior minds rejoice in i ts brightness and are led by its guidance. From these institutions go forth teachers and mental guides for the masses of the people. They carry the treasures of knowledge amassed by years of studious toil and scat ter the precious store broad-cast throughout society. In this way all who may not be able to visit the fountain source may yet drink of its cooling waters, percolating through channels which pour the refreshing tide through all the apartment of the social structure, as, in the economy of nature, light and heat are distributed by heat thiough bodies, as well as, by di rect r*«?ialJCTi from luminous cen ters; so, in the world of minds, knowledge is diffused by the moral reflection of social intercourse, as well as, by direct transmission from its original sources. The moral atmosphere <*f a na tion, blessed with a high seminary of learning, fills gradually with the 5t>Tfed&le elements of knowledge which form, like cooling dews upon parched plains, into the thirsting minds of the masses. This diffu sible quality of knowledge consti tutes the agrarian law of the king dom of mind, by which its riches are distributed in due proportion among all the inheritors of reason, Under its equalizing and powerful action intellectual monopolies are destroyed; the estates of the Bar ons of mtsdl are broken and divid ed among the masses; and all be come the common proprietors of the mental wealth of the entire community. The influence of literary institu tions in developing a just pride of country in a pevple is unquestion ably great and deserve the atten tive consideration of political phi losophers and practical legislators. The Greek was proud of his country, not only because it was Greece, but he was pwoud of it, also, because it was the seat of those celebrated Academies in which great minds taught and which made it the intellectual Palestine to which the Pilgrims of Literature came from every clime to receive the baptism of Letters and Philosophy. How proud is every Englishman over the fame of Oxford and Cam bridge! How glows the heart of New England over her Harvard and her Yale! How warms the heart of every true Southerner at the mention of her growing uni versities! Even the citizens of vil lages point with pride and admi ration to their magnificent schools. The lustre of the arts ennobles the obscurest citizen and onr literary institutions become stimulants of patriotic attachment, for each cit izen regards their fame as a part of the heritage which is his in the fortunes of his country. 1 We liuy Cvittbmon debt and guarantee our cus-| tomers the Yery.
