The fallowing Composition was read
by Miss M. G. 0., ten years of age, at
the exhibition of Mr. Joab Brook s
school, County Line, Webster 00. The
exhibition was a success, and reflected
great credit upon teacher and pupils :
Big Talkers and Little Doers.
I have selected a double-headed
subject, and it may require a better
head than mine to do justice to it.—
However, wo can’t expect to be justi
fied in all the whims of this life ; if so,
we will not condemn the long and
light tongues, nor the bitter work
done by any one.
I think some defining is necessary
here, before I enter fully into a dis
play of this subject, that my hearers
may understand what is meant by the
words great and little, as we take them
in English sense.
The word great, you all ought to
know, means large in a bulk ; and the
word little, you know, means not
much or something unimportant, is
the conclusion of Dr. Webster, the
best standard we have. I agree with
the author, and think when the word
great is compounded with talkers, it
means more, as we have, I think, a
very lazy class in our community who
do so little else but go about talking
of others in an unbecoming or inde
cent manner, and also speakiug of
what they expect to do soon, but nev
er do anything but little unimportant
and worthless jobs. Let me now try
to find the body of my subject, as I
have surveyed a very meandering way
to find it, though I think I bave it
now. I first consider the farmer and
his boast, as he began first the menial
but honoied career in life. The far
mer could bq the strong stake of pow
er in our government, would he hold
his peace; but why is he not ? Be
cause, as it is presented annually, the
farmer plants bis crop in a spirit of
rivalry one with another, and each
with every stranger he meets, is apt to
be telling how much corn and cotton
he is likely to realize from a very small
investment, and by thus doing makes
the merchants who is sloeping over
his stock and dreaming about bis dull
sales, and by his flow of great boast
ing causes the excited tradesman to
throw wide open the doors to his store
of dry goods and invite the often visits
of the opinionated farmer, and be wil
lingly goes often, this being the green
fruit of great talking, and finding his
crop expectations cut off he can’t sat
isfy the demands of the once weloomed
visits to the deceived merchant, which
makes wry faces and angry hearts,
and is the fruit of little doing ; and the
two fruits taken together is a solution
of an example contained in the sub
ject, great talking and little doing. (I
could Bolve for you a question under
she head of each branch.)
Next we will consider the merchant
Do cot think I look upon, and hold
him up in the community, as an infal
lible being, as regards much talking
and little or no doing; for among the
multidutes of evils arising from the ef
fects of much talking and little doing ,
none stand more guilty than the met"
chant. He is guilty of his much talk
ing in various ways sometimes : He
resorts to the method of advertising in
some public gazette ; yes, he will say
in hie advertisement, every body no
tice ; I am now offering for sale the
cheapest and best stock of goods in S.
W. Georgia; hero is a piece of goods I
can [sell you for thus and so, it being
the last peice. I will sell it to you for
cost; you are a good customer; you
must not say anything about it, for I
will assure you I would let no one else
have it but yourself at this price;
Now every word'ol this is untrue;
He uses his much talking, and at the
same time equivocates and prevari
cates, in order to sell a lew dollars
worth of goods, at a fair profit.
I could solve for you a question un
der the head of each branch of busin
ess among us in the samo manner, but
finding those solutions elongated I
propose to solve but one more.
I now propose to solve a question
respecting the good fornothingnoss of
bachelors, although they are great
talkers, and make many fine speeches.
The question is presented in this form.
Is there any reason for any man being
and living a bachelor ? Yes, yes, yes I
I hear uttered from the mouths of
those bachelors over there, and even
from my Teachor do I hear yes; I say
yes too, but now I want to know the
reason.
I can guess at their reward; they
think it is a decree, no doubt, as the
average numbur of males issued
annually, excedes those of the female
in the proportion 19 to 18, and though
the female sex are of more delicate
nature, and depart this life faster,
which makes the difference greater.
however, I cannot consider those things
any plausible reasons. I think I can
present you with a bettor reason than
that: if I mistake not in my knowl
edge of bachelors, they are a class of
men who talk greatly of what they
have, what they have done, what they
will do, and what shall be done, and
behold they never do anything that
merits the sanction of a worthy eiti
en.
Hence, such are bachelors of art
but not necessarily bachelors in my
opinion, but they are made by their
great talking and little doing, unre
spected and unworthy specimens o*
humanity, and no other but Satan or
his aunt will have anything to do with
them, is the 2nd solution, used to prove
that the great talking and little doing
is a nuisance to his country, and ought
to bo banished to some unpopulated
island, to find his associations among
the beasts of the forest, that by such
great talking and no doing no one
would bo alarmed or infused by the
storm of gass. Then I think we would
have pleasant homos and truths abroad.

MOORE COTTON Cl
Established in 1852 —Formerly at Double Wells.
ALSO, A GENUINE PATTERN OF
The Griswold Gin*
THE UNDERSIGNED, having resumed the manufacture of Pie above Gin,
l pp p"se to make it what it was before the war—“ The favorite of the
South.’’ Our work stands upon its merits, and we think this a sufficient guar
antee. AVe have secured the services of some of the best mechanical talent
in the Northern shops, in Lddition to some of the best workmen from the shop
of the lute Samuel Griswold. Mr. L’has. Gardner, who served eight years
apprenticeship under E Carver & Cos., at East Bridgewater, Mass., and who
was employed as Superintendent of the Double Wells shop, from the com
mencement of the manufacture of the Moore Cotton Gin, until i's suspension,
is again at Lis post, and will give each Gin bis personal inspection biLre it
leaves the shop. *•
In calling the attention of planters to our Cotton Gins, we desire that they
bould notice the improvements we offer, which are substantially as follows
.A. PORTABLE ROLL BOX,
For obtaining any inclination of the Gin Rib or Grate, is used ; the object of
which is to improve in the quantity ginned, lessen the quantity and improve
the quality ol iint. Also, to gin damp or wot cotton ; to alter the picking or
separating the iint from the seed—either to take more lint off, or lees lint from
the seed, as circumstances require. We use both the common Roll Box and
a Swinging Front. The latter is arranged to let out all the seeds and hulls
in a moment, and is very easily managed.
THE GIN BRUSH
We meke, cannot be excelled by any hair brush used. The bristles are all
drawn in by a cord, and the timber is all selected from the best lumbor, well
seasoned • and every brush is made perfectly tire and rat proof.
CYRIX HER AND BRUSH BOXES,
Are both oscillating and plain. Cun furnish either, as may be ordered. We
line them with the best babbit metal.
G-IN SAWS.
We make all the saws that we use from the best English Cast Steel, andet
any size that may be desired. We employ, to superintend and manu’facjtu
our saws, one of the best savv-makfts in the Soutn, aud our machinery for the
manufacture of Gin Saws cannot be excelled.
COTTON SEED CRUSHING MILE
We are the only successful manufacturers of this important and useful in
vention—the Cotton Gin, with the Cotton Seed Crushing Mill attached. I
will hardly be necessary here to allude to the immense saving and economica
use of crushed cotton seed as a manure. We received a gold medal as u pre'
mium, from the Fair of the Cotton PlaDter’s Convention, held in Macou, Ga.»
1860, for the best Cotton Seed Crusher attached to tho Gin Stand, to crush
the seed as fast as it escapes from the Roll. We refer to some of the many
certificates that we have on the subject. J
