POSiTIONS GUAAL4NTE fi'D. By The Georgia Business College of Ma con, Georgia 7he edaDiished reputation gia business College, which ranks al other southern institutions, enables it to do what no other is doing, viz: Guarantee a position to every person of average ability and good moiai character, who completes its prescribed course. Many Text Book clleges are studiously to conceal their lack of merit and influence, by hinting that no repu able in stiution will guarantee positions. Yet. this celebrated college, which teaches real business by purely practical methods, no only boldly gives this gu irantee, but si making it good in every instance. It had fifty students from a dozen states North aud Sou.h, to enter last month; aud in addition to placing every graduate, has now on hand numerous unfilled applica tsoin from the best professional and mer cantile firms for book-keepers and stenog rai hers, at salaries of $600.00 to $1500.00 per annum. Eviy young lady and gentleman, de siring to become independent, should write for full particulars, to WtATt & A/abtix, Macon, Ga. JACKSON, GA., FRIDAY, MARCH 3, 1893. IT DOES MOVE FOR ALL THAT. A Speech Delivered By Capt. H. B. Carmichael at Dahlonega Ga. Just two and a half centuries ago there took place in the once illus trous capital of the Roman Empire, n very remarkable trial. At the bar of that cruel tribunal of fanaticism, stood a man with lock? already fros ted by the snows seventy winters but with mental capacities still unweak cned. Galileo, one of the most learned men ever known, had been arr igned to answer the awful charge ot heresy because he had publicly announced that the sun does not move atound the world but that the reverse is trite. The trial after much deliberation, and osten tatious formality resulted in his condemnation. One part of *the penally was that Galileo kneeling and placing hi3 hands on the Holy Jsble should declare that the earth does not revolve about the sun, Yet with his unconvinced but cow ardly yeilding to the impulses of fear, he went through with theter* emonv of renouncing his theory. But as he was rising from his knees be is reported to have said: “It does more for all that.,’* He may not have said it, hut the sentence has become proverbial, the protest of rights against might— the watch word ol inquiry into truth. Let us illustrate it in some of its aspect: A state of motion is the warmed condition of the atmosphere of animate and inanimate creation. Flow fully does the modern astron omer as he sweeps the starry heav ens with his powerful telescope and systems revolving in inexnressable grandeur and beautv in theirqaeyer ending paths. that motion is the prevai' v’ g of celestial bodies. We l a„ a otiserver beholding a valley nestling among the hills with a silver stream wind ing through the snow clad moun tains that serene and magestic tow er heavenward, and bathe their brow in the blue ether above are sublime. The emerald hue of .th flowing river, the roar of the plung ing water, the mist rising in fleecy clouds toward the zenith, the rain bow's arch quivering in the rising mist, and crowning the scene with a diadem of colors that both thrill and awe his soul He further no tices in the works of nature, and art the morning sunlight kissing the cheeks of dew-gemmed flowers. The evening twilight that like a sil ver clasp links the day and dark ness, the rising sun, the star of eve thatglitters like a diamond upon the brow of night, and the broad ex panse of old ocean, as it blends with the sky and vanishes in the distance. Be folds his arms, regimes, and af firms that beyond a doubt „it moves for all that.” Again we we find the law or motion suprenxe in our world. Scientists of today tell us that there are sixty <sdd primitive elements, and that atoms of these combined in different j roportions form every substance. More than an atom which today may assist in forming a beautiful flower, or a tremrding leaf, may to morrow give strength to the black smith or blushes to the cosy maid ens ros‘ cheeks, On, on till the end of time will every atom combine its motion. Passing from inanimate to an mate nature, we find that perpet ual motion is not only the law, but it is absolutely necessary to good health, or long continued existence. I'pon a close examination of ani mate life, we find that every mem oer of the animal kingdom is placed ii tiiis world in an embryo state as it were, and that motion is much an inexorable condition of even an av erage developement. It is only from action that muscles strength ens and the bones harden. So too trorn the world of mind eventually is activity and movement the law. The mind never, never developes unless its natural power-i are close ly and continually exercised. But with the proper trainiug ho v trium. phantly it does expand. See how it i brills the world with its elegance. Revolutionize the dominions of art by some grand discovery, or like the conquerer, Napolean, shake the foundation of ©very throne. In the movement and activity of mind, the mos* important and interesting of all activities to man is what start ling and wonderfol explorations have been made into the field of knowledge. When unchecked and unobstructed, this movement seems like the movement of material bodies steadily onward. Here too stagnation is death. Such a period of stagnation and death makes the transition between the progress of the old world, and modern advance ment. That period of eclipse which hold the world for centuries in the gloom of destruction, But look. This thousand years of night is be ginning lo pass away, and the first faint alimerings of the light of mod ern light of civilization, refinement and religion are sun penciling the over arching skies with lines of glo rious hope, and p; cruise. Go stand with me on Himalayas’ highest Deek, and see the uprieing of this life giv ing sun. Now the faint edge of this glorious disc can first be seen, anc* its light is given to those blaj k clouds of ignorance a silver lining. Those same dark clouds are breathi ng, uprieing in wreaths, and disap pearing forever. The dav of activ ity and movement is again declared and now for more than four hundred years its lustra has never bee i eclipsed but it has grown brighter and brighter still, and today it is baptising the whole world in its pure liquid light. What glorious I augmentations have been wrought by its miracu lous activities. The smoothest as well as the most powerful forces of earth, air and sky have come in sub mission to the feet of naan and have unconditionally surrendered them selves liis willing slaves. Electric ity, man’s swiftest servant, with equal rapidity through aerial and watery ocean, flies on his hurried errands. The moral and teligious world have felt the perminent effect of the movement, Great social re forms are in process. The* prob lems of the industrial world, the re formation of criminal classes, the relief ol the needy, the education of the masses engage the thoughts of the world. Unlocked movement, and never ceasing advancement is the order of the day. The great ti dal wave oLtemperance is sweeping away the untold evils of the liquor traffic. The church,; today is doing more affective work m th© divine cause, than it has ever done before, churches are rising all over the land, the activity of Gods ministers was never more continued and affective. The Sunday school and Bible clas ses move together sowing the seeds of Christian instruction, and divine truths over the the land. The world ha* been opened to the mis sionaries, and the churches are today occupying the wide field. Heath enism is reseding before the ever in creasing and ever advancing host. Science is lending her aid by her appliances and discoveries to leyel the tide of advancement. Activity, motion and progress are the watch words of the entire world, Could the Italian sage now survey the same, he might in a wider sense, re peat his famous! famous! time honored words: ‘lt moves for all that. WISE WORDS. Good people ueyer love bail com pany. The memory of a blessing is itself a blessing. The man with a prejudice is a man with a chain. The trust of the heart is always the trust of love. Life has no joy that is not based on some kind of a hope. The man who borrows trouble al ways has to pay big interest. It there is any of the hog in g man the bristles will begin to gn w when he traveb. Labor troubles are ofteu caused by men who are trying to make a living without work. Whenever the preacher takes a square aim at s*n every hypocryte in the church begins to dodge. Preaching expeiimental religion without expense is as easy to do as climbing pillars of smoke. A hog in a pen n*ver trie3 to be anything else, but the one in a street cartr ies to pass himself off for a man. The man who dosen’t love hie brother on the other side of the earth dosen’t love his brother on the other side of the street. — Ram's Horn. ALL BUT. FROM THE SPANISH BY M. L. S. So, my life, you want a story as rosy-colored as your tempting cheeks? Then listen to this, though I very much fear you know it al ready but too well. Once upon a time the King of Heaven called the most mischiev ous of liis angels. With this purse,” said He, “go to the bazaar where they re tail prices of women; with the sixty celestes that you will find in it buy what is necessary to make up one that will proclaim your taste in the matter, and when it is finished send it to the world by way of the first conveyance, di rected to that poor poet who is asking us for it with such extrem ity. Be careful that you do not forget any piece and let us see how you acquit yourself.” The angel reached the bazaar in a single flight. “ Good day, master.” “ Good morning, child. What brings you here?” ‘‘ I have to buy a woman in pieces. Come now; take down all you have and of the first quality', for there is no lack of money. ” “Very well, boy. First, the eyes, if it suits you to begin there, Here you have all kinds aud colors; green, blue, black.” “ Let us see. How much are those blue ones, so light and pure. ” “ Ten celestes.” “ They are dear.” “ The best in the shop.” “ Put them aside. Raise that glass and take out that little dewy, red mouth.” “It is marked four celestes. There is nothing fresher in all the bazaar.’’ “ Put it with the eyes. And that nose as well. Oh! what hair was ever prettier than that!” “ Which?” “ That hanging up there, colored like rays of the sun.” “You don’t choose badly, youth. You light on the best I have.” “Well! and these little ears ; 1 tliink they will match those vel vety cheeks.” “ And, as for that, with this set of pearly teeth. What do you say ?” “Pearls appear to be just the thing to guard the rosy tongue that I see in the furthest showcase. Bless me! What a throat and neck. How finely the head we have just formed will set upon them! Let us now see some bod ies.” “Here they are. Choose. I: have a fine assortment.” “ That is so, but, hold on. Not this-'one, nor that either. But that over there which is so beauti ful. What forms! What con tours! It is a work that does you honor, master.” “Many thanks, little fellow: I see you understand it.” “All right. Now, after putting . those alabaster arms to it and ; fastening on those shapely legs, j and to the arms those delicate white hands, and to the legs those neat little feet, our work is com plete, is it not? And what a love ly result, now that we have it all Eut together. How handsome, ow successful! The poet must be verj' hard to please who is not enthusiastic over such perfection.” “Something is wanting, how ever.” “Can it be possible?” “Yes, child, the heart. You have forgotten it.” “How is that? Does it not go along with the body?” “We sell them separately.” “Very well. Put in a most ten der and loving one. Our poet will thank us for it.” “I must tell you, youngster, that the tender ones come high.” “Then, see, wait a minute. Cast up the amount of all that I have selected, and with the balance re maining we shall add a heart to her.” “That is soon done; ten here, nine there, eighteen over there— the throat, the hands. Here it is, just sixty celestes.” “Sixty celestes?” “Not one less.” “Unfortunate coincidence—” “What is up?” “That this is precisely the total amount which I can spend.” “What shall we do then?” “Could you not come down a little in price?” “Impossible, not a farthing. You are getting the very best in the store.” “No, of course not. Certainly What is so beautiful is costly. There is nothing more perfect.” ‘ * Listen to this suggestion. Some piece might be exchanged for a cheaper one and with the differ ence ” “Let us try it. “What do you say to those eyes somewhat less deep?” “Ohl we must not touch the eyes. It would be a crime.” “What about this mouth which is paler than that?” “I’d as little have that as the other eyes. It would be profana l?---. “And this body?” “The other is so pretty.” “And the hands?” “Oh, no! Leave them.” “Boy!” “Nothing different. I take it as it is.” “But, rogue, what do you mean ? Without a lie rat?” “Yes, without a heart. After all, as the want of it cannot be seen, nobody will notice the de fect. ” “As for me, do as you please.” “There is your money.” “Good-bye, young man.” “Good-bye, master, till I see you again. ” And the cherub, light as a sun beam, gathered the beautiful wo man in his arms and descended to the earth, beating the air with his wings. ****** And as I reach this part of my story, you will not fail to ask me : “And could that woman live with out a heart?” And I then, with great distress, will be obliged to answer: “That, my charming ungrateful one, no body can know better than vour self.” " His Terrible Revenge. “So!” exclaimed Harold Vere de Vere, folding his arms and regard ing the young woman with a stern, pitiless gaze, ‘‘you have cast me aside, Mabol Featherbone, in or der to get a rich widower, have you?” If you choose to speak of it in that coarse manner, Mr. Yere de Vere. she replied, raisiner her head and m'eeting his gaze haughtily, I have, sir! I have promised to marry Mr. Wagonsellers. Harold Yere de Yere crushed his hat down over his eyes and started for the door. Mabel Featherbone, he said, Eausing with his hand on the door nob, you have thrown me over for a man with a bar’l. You will find he is not the only man with a bar’l. I have one at home filled with your love letters! I shall sell them to the ragman! Good eve ning!—Chicago Tribune. Notes of the Fashions. Tight-fitting jackets with loose fronts and large lapels will prevail in 1893. The fancy in iewelry is the mak ing over of old-fashioned earrings into stick pins.

He—l own that there is one very unreasonable thing about me. She— What is it? He—lt is because I think there is no one in the world worthy of i you Jhat l want you to accent me. 1 NUMBER 9. The Information Came Toe Late. “Could I get a little information from you?” asked a farmerlike looking man at the Northwestern station this morning. “Yes, sir,” replied the officer. “Well, I want to know how these confidence men work. ” “In various ways. Sometimes they borrow money and give a worthless check on a bank.” “They do, eh?” gasped the man, with a sudden start. “Yes; or perhaps they borrow money and turn over a check fora trunk. When you go to look for the trunk it is not to be found.” “By George!” muttered the man. “Then, again, they sell you a bogus bond, or borrow monev on it.” “Sakes alive!” “And they sometimes hire their victims to boss a mill or factory somewhere, and then borrow money to pay a freight bill.” “Four different ways?” shouted the man, as he jumped clear of the floor. “Yes. ” “And I’ll be hanged if I haven’t been taken in on every one of ’em in a ride of a hundred miles! Say, come down and show me the river —the deepest spot in the river— the place where I can drop in and won’t never come to the surface again with my dough-filled head.’ 1 No Wheels In Tangier, Among the strangest peculiari ties of Tangier, and one that forces itself upon the attention of the newcomer, is the total absence of any kind of wheeled vehicle. In the entire city (which is an ex ample of all the others in the em pire) there is not even a donkey cart, for the streets are much too narrow to ‘ their use, and transportation of passengers and merchandise is effected upon the backs of donkeys, horses, mules and camels, according to the weight and the distance. There are but few streets into which a loaded camel could enter, and not more than three in which he could pass another loaded camel or horse. Some of the smaller streets are so narrow, that even the panniers of a donkey would scrape upon either side, so that in the city itself the transportation devolves upon donkeys for the side streets, and upon horses and mules for the main thoroughfares. Canary Birds. These pretty creatures are often covered with annoying vermin. They mav be effectually relieved of them by placing a clean white cloth over their cage at night. In the morning the cloth will be cov ered with minute red spots, so small that they can hardl y be seen with the naked eye; these are the parasites, a source of great annoy ance to the birds. Rubenstein. Rubinstein, the pianist, it is de clared, would become an American citizen if it were not for the objec tions of his wife. He is quoted as saying: “I am a Russian of Rus sians; but I am also a Republican, and America is the land for those that love liberty.” A Smart Old Lady. Mrs. Nancy Phillips, of North Carolina, nearly 82 years of age, put in the loom and wove 18 yards of cloth from the 13th to the 20th of January, which embraced the very coldest days. Her loom was in an old house with only one fire place. A Novel Sensation. Miss Centmilles—Ne, Mr. Cash* less. Why did you imagine I would marry you? Mr. Cashless—l never thought so.
