THE SEMI-WEEKLY EXPRESS J AS. TV atr H ARRIS aud SAM’L il. SMITH Editors axd Proprietors. CAKTHKSVILLK. GA., MCH. 31st. 1871. The concert of the orphans, for the bine fit of the Lauderdale, [Mississippi Asylum, according to appointment, came off Tuesday evening, at the Town Hall, under the charge of the Rev. Mr. Trimb]e. A large and appreciative audience wae in attendance, and uni versal sympathy expressed and mani fested. The exercises were opened by the Re v. gentleman with prayer, which was followed by speeches, dialogues and songs from the boys and the girls—all evincing careful instruction of the chil dren on the part of the managers, and very creditable to the teachers and their wards. The children seem to en ter with considerable zest into the pro ceedings, but we thought that many, if not all of them, appeared jaded and weary. Many of them, too, seemed to be laboring under hoarseness and bud colds, and we learu that some of them were left behind on the way, because of sickness. We doubt very much whether it is not too great a tax upon the physical energies of the children, depriving them of very necessary rest, and exposing them to all the hardships of travel by rail, from one point to an other; besides the futigue and labor of nightly exhibitions. We heard from one of the agents, that when one com pany of the children became too much fatigued for their work, that Lhtjy are returned back to the asylum, and a new supply taken out on the same ex hibition, thus seeking to avoid too great an exposure of the little and at the same time, to keep up the programme. Besides, we further fear, that this is not the proper way to instruct them.— They are placed upon public exhibi tion, and the little girls as well as the boys, are made to appear before the public, singing songs and performing parts, which, however innocent and un objectionable, and for ti e most part praise-worthy iu themselves, are yet calculated to cultivate a taste and hab its of feeling and thought on the part of these children, which* upon the whole, wo cannot approve. We fear that the moral effect on them will be bad. We have heard several sober think ing and intelligent gentlemen say, that they would not be willing, if their chil dr a were left orphans, that they should thus be managed. The scheme for raising the money for the uses of the luni may, in a pecuniary view, prove valuable, but we cannot but doubt its propriety, so far as the children are concerned. If it is to be continued, we would be glad to know that the public patron age would bo so largo and liberal, that the necessary amount of money migh be raised at tho earliest period possi" ble, so that these children of the Con" federate dead might be saved from any necessity of appearing as public actors, and retire to the quiet and home-like surroundings of the asylum. Hard indeed is the heart, which can not respond in behalf of these little sufferers, who so tenderly appeal to the charities of the public. OFFICE ALBANY NEWS, Albany, Ga., March 24th, 1871. To the Patrons of the Ntws: In consequence of the financial em barrassment of the country, the gener al depression of business in all branch es of industry, the absolute necessity for cash in journalism, and the difficul ty in making collections on current in debtedness so the office, I deem it ex pedient to suspend one issue of the . News, and to issue only a Weekly Edi- tion till the Ist day of October next. The falling off of business in all de partments renders it impossible for me to continue Semi-Weekly issues, with out a greater pecuniary sac ifice than the advantages to either patrons or myself will justify ; and I, therefore, consult their interest as well as my own in making the change. I trust my object will be understood and my motive appreciated. Those of my audscrihers who have pawl in advance will liavie their time extended so as to cover tho twenty-six numbers proposed to be omittod, aud a like arrangement will be made with those who shall hereafter pay. Adver tisements will be run also till omitted numbers are made up by the weekly issues. Terms for subscription and advertis ing, from Ist of April to Ist of October will be reduced to weekly rates. On the Ist of October, should our prospective railroad connections be completed, and business prospects jus tify it, I shall commence the publica tion of a Daily News, and continue the Yv'eekly, and whatever happens my patrons may rely upon the publication of a Tbi-\\ eekly a id Weekly from that date. The change proposed will be made the first week in April, and the weekly edition will commence on Friday, the 7th, at 5 P. M. Very Respectfully, Your Ob’t S’vfc, Carey W, Styles, Proprietor Albany News. adveiUaemeut of J. & S. Bon s & Cos., Rome, Ga. We give place in our columns to the circular of Col. Styles, heartily appie ciating the difficulties of his position, and not doubting the ready concur rence of each and all of his patrons in the course which he has chosen to pursue. The cash demands which are made upon the publisher of a paper, and which are to be punctually and prompt ly met, require always equal prompt ness and punctuality on the purt of those who patronize the paper, and if from onh cause they thould fail to com ply with their ergag< merits to him, it becomes a matter, if not of impossibil ity, at least cf very grave considera tion, w hether he shell run his paper at all. This is an age of reading and an age of newspaper j üblishiig; and to have a large list of subscribers and nu merous advertisements, is the ambition of editors. All very well. But if the patrons of the paper do not come up strictly to their engagements, the larg er the list and the more numerous the advertisements, the greater the diffi culty the editor finds in making his issues, and netting the wishes and wants of his readeis. So that the ve ry circumstance of having a large list and much advertising, which, if prompt ly paid by his patrons, would properly represent the value cf his business, and give him a profit, is, if unpaid, only the means of involving him in pecuniary troubles, and often in irretrievable ru in. All over the country-, too, there seems to be an almost impatient eager ness on tLe part of the press to issue semi- weeklies, tri-weeklies* and dailies, in addition to the weekly itself.— Whether it results from a spirit of em ulation and rivalry, a desire not to be out-done, or a love of writing editori als aid publishing matter for the read er, or what not, of one thing we feel pretty well assured, that it is by no means a paying business, if indeed it should not prove a losing one. We do not believe that, outside of a large city, any other than a weekly pa per will pay at all; and if the truth were known, the weekly in all those offices where there are also published tri-weekly or daily papers, is the only one which brings in, upon a fair calcu lation, a net revenue to the proprietors. Its broad shoulders bear the burden, and it supports the family establish ment. We have, it is true, but little experience in these things, but such is the fair conclusion to which we have come. We think, therefore, that Col. Styles has acted wisely, and we have no doubt that many others in the coun- try might profit by his example. W e are publishing, ourselves, a semi weekly, and we hesitate not to fay that two issues per week only result in an accommodation to the public, without a corresponding remuneration to the editors. We are pleased to know that we are doings well, and are every day improving in our list and business, without any particular personal activ ity in soliciting favors on our part; but we are satisfied, beyond a doubt, that we should do far better, in every re spect, and, we believe, could be more profitable to the public, with less labor and trouble and inconvenience to our selves, were we to have but one issue per week. Not very long ago an editor of one of the most thriving and popular and widely circulated papers in our midst, remarked, in substance, upon this very subject, tbat if it was not for his week ly, his dail} could not live, and that it was seriously damaging the weekly.— New York, Philadelphia, and other large cities, including all which have populations sufficient to support them, may authorize such issues, but beyond controversy, a paper whose circulation is mainly in the country, outside of towns, and dependent upon county and neighborhood patronage for sup port, should confine itself to weekly is sues. We have said thus much in connec tion with the note of Col. Styles, be cause of the fact, that we had thought of the propriety of our pursuing a sim ilar course, which we may or may not yet do. In conclusion, whether the Colonel shall adhere to his projected Weekly or shall issue, as he proposes, a daily in connection with it next fall, his editorial ■qualifications entitle him fully to the high consideration iu which he is held by the Georgia Press. General Young.—A Washington letter* writer recently gave ourrency to the state" merit that General Young had eipressed a desire to charge through the House of Representatives with a body of cavalry, shooting and killing. This the General has thought proper to characterize as simply rediculous and preposterous. He says that he has never felt, from the day of his admission, or given utterance to sentiments that could warrant any such statement. And concludes : “ Like the people whom I have the honor te represent, I desire, and intend to obey the laws of my country, and to do all in my power for its peace, prosperity and glory.” There are over two thousand chil dren in the Methodist Sunday School, in Atlanta. — Mrs. A. M. Meeker, of Atlanta, an authoress of some distinction, delivered a lecture upon the subject of “matrimony ss it was and as it is,” at Hover, Delaware, on the 18th instant. J ndge Par roll’* C haife t« Ilia Jury. It happened to fall to our lot to serve on the Grand Jnry of Bartow Supe rior Court, second week, March Term, 1871, and we cannot pass by, at least,; a portion of Judge Parrott’s charge to our honorable body before engaging iu the important duties foreshadowed in said charge, without an additional ef fort to impiess it upon the miuds of our readers. His charge was an able and explicit one, and deserves some thing more than a mere passing no tice, as it embraced matters of very great moment to the general weal of our country. After giving us in charge the laws relating to carrying concealed weap ons, and urging upon our body the im portance of diligence in hunting out and finding true bills against the vio* later* of the law, as well as the law against gaming and selling liquors, &c. he called our attention to the subject of Education. Iu connection with this subject he made some suggestions which it remains for us, as a Christian people, to think about, as we certainly have the menus at our command, to not only prevent] much prevalent vice and crime from being committed, but elevate our lace in the scale of respec tability and usefulness. He asked the question, “What is it that constitutes the] distinguishing feature between an enlightened, refined and christianized people, and the barbarian and savage?” His answer was “mental culture.— Education not only draws out and de velopes the moral and divine attributes of the mind, but greatly ameliorates man’s condition temporally. Igno rance is the womb from which springs many vices, while intelligence is the source of all the virtues that make us as individuals and as a people, great and good. Itclligence will triumph over ignorance as surely as truth will over error. If we would have our chil dren take a high position in enlighten ed and refined society, cultivate their intellects; l-ut if we would have them hewers of wood and drawers of water, raise them in ignorance. Past history* ns well as observation, substantiates this truth, without an exception. Ed ucation does not only consist in book learning, but may be derived from the pulpit, the press and the Sabbath School. He, therefore, urged upon us the importance of recommending to parents the necessity of reading the newspapers of the day, and furnishing them to their children, that they might be inf >rmed on all general topics dis cussed through their columns, as well as attending upon the dispensation of truths, from Sabbath to Sabbath, from the pulpit and in the Subbath School. He further urged upon ns co-operation with the officers in their (fforts to suc cessfully carry out the law recently enacted by our Legislature, and known as the Common School System, by which system the children of the rich ns well as the poor alike reap the be. nefits. We can give but the substance of his remarks upon this subject. The next important matter, and the last that we shall notice, that his Hon or urged upon us, was dilligent enqui ry into the condition of our public roads, bridges, Ac. His opinions in regard to good roads and safe bridges, are admirable. He urged a full com pliance with the letter and spirit of the law on this subject.* Already the boun daries of the Cherokee Circuit can be definitely traced by the public roads with which it is chequered. His Hon or contends, and truthtully, too, that good roads not only enhance the value of the lands by which .they pass and through which they run, but they speak in thunder tones of the virtue, intelligence and enterprise of the citi zens who make them. He stated that the abuse of many were heaped upon the Court, at first, because of the en forcement of the road laws, but since witnessing the practical workings and salutary effects, there was now a hear ty approval, by all, of his action in the premises. He urged tbat not only should the roads and bridges be put iu good condition, but that they be kept so, and tbat Commissioners and overseers failing to do their duty in this direction be summarily dealt with as the law directs. He cites the instance of the death of the late la mented E. G. Nelson, at Euharlee, by the falling in of a bridge, crushnig him to death. While this may not be en tirely attributed *to the negligence 0 f the Commissioners to do their duty, it shows the great importance of vigilance, on the part of the Commissioners, to prevent such disasters. The old ad age, that an ounce of preventive is worth more than a pound of cure, may be here truthfully applied. In conclu sion, we are proud to say, that a trav aler through the Cherokee Circuit is not foreed to the disagreeable necessi ty otf stopping, on his journey, at the county line or every few miles, to enquire the distance to the coun ty town, nor at every fork aud cross road to learn the way, &H this he ascertains from the finger boards, aud mils posts along his routs, and further mown, he is not detained by high wa ters and bad for the streams are generally bridged, and the roads in good condition. Thanks to His Honor, Judge Parrott, and all con cerned. Our Superior Court. We are iuq ross and wi b the belief hat ths Superior Cjurt, a) organized iu our State, is a most important institu tion. It brings the powers and opera turns of the government in immediate sensible contact with the people. This institution has great influence upon the morality of the country, and fre quently has in charge the property, lives and liberty of the inhabitants. If all the Judges in Georgia, and in the South, having control of this great institution, could and wonld devote themselves as earnestly, industriously and as ably to their work as Judge Parrott does to his, there would not long be a pre text f>r “enforcement bills,” M Ku Klux Committees” and the many oppressive measures proposed in our National Congress to harrass and depress the people of the South. Public opinion co-operating with, and aiding the local authorities, com bined with able and efficient Judges and intelligent and hon ist Jurore, will secure morality and prosperity in any country. In our Court we observe that good order prevails, the presiding Judge is firm, earnest and rigid in enforcing discipline, but courteous to the bar of ficers and Jurors. There are no con tinuances for frivolous causes, no call ing of Attorneys or Jurors, no failure of Jurors to be present from the time the Court convenes until it adjourna Pleasant humor and good feeling seem to prevail the Court room, and busi ness is transacted rapidly. Every of ficer is in his place and performing his duty promptly and without noise or bluster. It is gratifying to us to know that this large county with its may towns and railroads, and manufacturing in terrest is better off morally, religiously, financially and intellectually, than any co«tn Ly of its population in Georgia, or in the South, and the discipline en forced and the public opinion manu factured by our Superior Courts have bad much to do in producing this prosperity. If the law is rightly enforced by these courts as it is in our county, peace and good order is sure to prevail wherever it is done, and prosperity, liberty and life will be rendered secure.
