That’* a Fact.—Quoth the Montgom
ery Advertiser, it is a great convenience
to the traveling public whtn a railroad
ticket offico t* in the heart of the city. It
does aw»y with all necessity of going to
the depot »nd hurrying around while the
train i*. perhaps on tha point of leaving,
to get • ticket, or of sending otfffing away
over them to effect that p irpni before
one is ready to leave home. \
That Is a reflection wo lute (Ben in
dulged in in respect to Macon. \Thore
was s time when things were in
hem. Under the rule*, regulation-
ordinance* one could not pass ini
station house without a ticket, and
not buy a'ticket until ho got into
station louse. That waa tho time
ha-1 the Jienple in a corner; but
while they let up on ns. The trntli
however, there should be a ticket
uptown. ,
No reason exist* for making agricul-
tm» a collegiate specialty, nor do these
institutions amount to any great sum
considered from that point of view. Tho
pbuv to learn farming is on tho farm,
and not cn a garden patch or out of books:
As well try to learn blackstaithing or
bricklaying out of books as to plough,
sow and rtap. It can't be done.—New

Vary glibly spoken, to bo sure, but
many wise men think differently. Both
p an* are good to acquire a knowledge of
fanning. Combine tho two, and tho pro
duct is intelligent fanning, which always
pnys. A fool may stumble sometimes
updb a way to raise good crops, but it
takes an intelligent man who has studied
books that teach him the composition and
needs of his soil to knowhow they should
be ridtivatod. This railing against what
is erroneously called "book farming”
haa ployed oat in all civilised oesuntrios.

Shortly after Slemmcr and Gilman had

came ashore and called at tho house of
my sister, in the Navy Yanl, where Bragg
happened to be taking tea. They met on
courteous »ud polite terms, and Gilman,
after being supplied with fresh bread and
vegetable** from tho garden, returned to
the fort. After lie had left, Bragg ra
marked, “I know, and Gilman knows that
I know, that I qan’ take ^osseanon of
Pickens without the loss 01 a man on
either tide. I have four thou-and men
here, and there is not a hundred in the

“AVhy have you not done it ?” The Gen
eral. replied, "Our people s:p at. Mont

adjusted without bloodshed, and they
hesitate about-strip ing a decirive blow.”
After the fall of Gunter, the lady asked
Bragg for an explanation. He replied
that South Carolina wo Id have other
wise made the attack witaent permission
of the Confederate Government, and that
anything was preferable to the secession
of a State from the Confcthnscy'.

Havana, -September o.—Tho'JZ Diario
to-day has ah editorial justifying the re
cent breaking up Of a Republican meet
ing by the police. It says it ia well
known that futile attempts were made at
the end of last year to create political
dissension —mong the - Spaniards here.
During the present year the attempts
have been renewed with some success,
although!* great majority of the Spanish
parts-, calling itself con .Tvative, contin
ued to protest against political agitations.
■ This agitation exists because a party
has been found which thinks proper to
promote it. We ought to stop at nothing
when the object to save secrecy i3 thus
menaced. We should avoid all action
likely to excite the passions or lead to
serious conflict. It is onr duty to en
deavor to conciliate parties; but we must
say that it is indispensable that this
political Strif.-, whioh takes forms of.ac
tion contrary to la-, should be repressed.
The tranquillity of the city of Havana
and the whole Island renders it neces
sary that law prohibiting meetings of a
political character, be enforced, for the
meetings only serve to produce deplorable
confficts against the citizen”. All Span
