E.iueation has been fostered by
| our government. Since we are a
mere confederation, G.afield repre
sents the ripened fruit of that edu
cational system. From a school
master suggestions of education
will equitably come. In a part of
the union the children are not edu
cated, as the census shows, and
hence such subjects as I am discuss
ing fall upon desert tufhds. It is
no inexpensive thing to support a
good system ot common schools—
and where the poverty of the peos
pie will exclaim agains' it, a gov
ernment might as well give a help
ing b ind as to let George Peabody
or some outside benefactor do it.
The last census of New York show
ed county debts of $3,500,000 for
school buildings. The value of
school properly iu Pennsylvania is
about $30,000,000, and the nnuunl
cost of it over $9,000,000. There is
a common school fund in New York
stale with a capital of over $3,000, •
000 partly in United States bonds,
Ttao annual cost of education in one
of the great states of the north is
about hall of that of the whole debt
of th ) average sentboru state. Here
we have a cupi-tnl applied through
every child, giving us a perpetual
advantage in the competition of life.
How to found educational funds iu
neglected states is a subject for de
liberate statesmanship. It will take
twenty years from the present time,
with an immediate beginning, to
equalize education over the coun
try.

Alexander Stephens has been
dead from his waist down for soma
time. His head is clear and brain
active, tie is trundled into the
house in a rolling chair whenever
lie is well enough. It. Is one of the
mysteries of nature how lie hangs
on to life. The liouso is always
disposed to accord him extra priv
ileges, and Mr Stephens, with that
high sense of honor which cliarac
tomes a sonUu rn gentleman, never
abuses them.

The Beat Policy
Macon Telegraph.]
The above is more or less tho
experience of the Georgia planters
aKo, Credit, at a preposterous rate
of interest, for meat, corn, planta
tion implements and household
supplies, has been tho greatest
bane. No business on cartli could
be made to yield returns sufficient
ly remunerative to cover rates of
interest which run all the way up
from 25 to 75 per cent. And yet
many farmers still continue tho
suicidal policy of planting nearly
all their land in cotton, to the neg
lect of provision crops, and the
raising of their own meat. It is a
matter for congratulation, however,
that some oi them have seen the
error of this course, and are, there
fore, beginning toprospor substan
tially. It is safe to say that the
sale of w- stern corn and bacon in
this state has declined fully one
hvlf within tho past iivo years.
We long to chrouiclo the fact that
not one pint of the former, or a sin
gle pound of the latter can find a
market in this heaven-blessed re
gion. Pay cash for every tiling,
and raise your own "grub," is tho
only true policy of our agricultural
friends.
A mammoth cabbage, weighing

Bridal Tours
Demorcst's Magazine.
An eminent physician of New
York, upon the occasion of his
dar.gbter‘B marriage, prohibited
her from going on her usual bridal
tour. He did this from considera
tions of health and delicacy which
are not generally borne in mind.
The first experiences of a bride are
such that she would naturally court
retirement and rest rather than os
tentations publicity. A young cou
plo in public cars and at hotel ta
bles cannot keep tho precious and
happy secret all to themselves.
Their newly formed relation tells it
self in a thousand ways. Of this
tho bride is conscious, and tho or.,
deal to a sensitive young woman is
most trying. Then, tho sudden
change in tho life of the woman ir.
liable to bring on physical derange
ments which may last a lifetime,for
the shock to and exaltation of her
feelings react on her body, often in
juriously. So tho New York doc
tor we have been speaking of or
dered his daughter, with her young
husband, to enter at once upon the
duties of anew home, and to post
pone tho tour until at least a month
had passed away. Of course there
is another side to this question. It
may bo that even tho fondest affec
tion would not continue if two peo
ple were forced to spend nil their
time together without, the distrac
tion necessitated by travel, and tho
reserve necessary to he kept up in
public places. This is an interest
ing topic, and one which might
form a profitable subject to debate
in women's societies. It is a sub
ject, also, upon which women phy
sicians might be heard to ndvun
tage.
The S’s in the South.
Boston Herald, Inti.
The “three S‘s'* which tho At
lanta Constitution says constitute
tim best hope and reliance of the
south—“shops, schools and small
farms"—aie certainly ail improve
ment on ‘.lie throe S‘h of the old to
girae, slavery, sloth and secessioni
Tho shops are working their way
in with surprising rapidity consid
ering the lack of native poDiilatiou,
with a natural bent and training in
handicraft. The schools aro pro
gressing hopefully, and aro sure to
increase and improve now that tho
sentiment of the people is so strong
ly in their favor. And in Georgia
amt in several of tho more pro
gressive states tlm number of small
landowners is growing greater ouah
year. In tho south, even more
truly, perhaps, than at tho west,
owing to the nature of tho popula
tion and tho fatal facility with
which a shiftless and dependent
class may bo created in a race but
lately servile, the American policy
should bfi great farmers and small
farms. Tho new south has enter
ed upon the right path. Let it
shove obstructing politicians one
side and “stick.“
I’niLosoi'iiY and Humanity.—
Philosophy has sometimes forgot
ten God; a great people never did.
The skepticism of the eighteenth
century could not uproot Christi
anity, because it lived in the hearts
of tho millions. Do you think that
infidelity is spreading? Christiani
ty never lived in tho hearts of so
many millions as at this moment.
The forms under which it is pro
fessed my decay, for they, like all
that is the work of man's hands,are
subject to the changes and chances
of mortal being—but tho spirit of
truth is incorruptible—it may bo
developed, illustrated and applied;
it can never die—it never can d“-
cline. No truth can perish. No
trudi can piss away. The flume is
undying, though generations dis -
ppcar. Wherever moral truth has
started into being, humanity eluirnv
and guards the bequest. E ich
generation gathers together the im
perishabl; children of tho past, and
increases them by the new sons of
the light, alike radiant with immor
tality.-Selected.
Mr Stephens has served longer
in tho house than any other man.
Ho served sixteen years before tho
war, and on the fourth of next
month ho will bring his total ser
vice up to twenty-four years. Mr
Kelley comes next, having served
twenty years continuously. Mr
Randall has served eighteen years,
and Mr Garfield would have served
a similar length of time if he had
kept his seat to the end of this con
gress. Had Wood lived
to the fourth of March he, too,
would have served eighteen years.
