COFFER PLUMS /TO TWELFTH STREET CJ i TV CIN N A TI , on 10, TALBOTTON, TALBOT COUNTY. GA., TUESDAY. MARCH 1, 1881. Garfield’s Great Scheme. “(lath,in Cincinnati Euqmrer. 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. —— ♦- -♦ Gallery Glances. Wir liingion Letter Philadelphia Record. Blount, of Georgia, is a truly loyal southerner. Ho is clean shaven, faultless in his dress, and wears a suit of gray, indicative ot Ins str-ng sectionalism The min ute he opens his mouth any “vet." who cv r [faced a rebel battery would shut his eyes and sing out, “T.iafc fellow's a Johnny.*' 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. Tho beaux of the house aro Ben Be Fevre, of Ohio, a tall, lino look ing man, with dark eyes and a sprinkle of gray in his hair; JCS Blackburn, of Kentucky, who cul tivates a mustache ala militaire, one of that sort which gives a fel low a cavalier appearance; General Floyd King, of Louisiana, quite an aristocratic young s mtherncr; .1 II Acklen, of the same state, whose face is adorned with a pair ot Dan dreary side whiskers, and whose ! lues curley locks are always well combed. The republican side is wonderfully lax ii the beau ques tion; consequently the fairest maid ens are to be found in the demo cratic gallery. 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 sixteen pounds and measuring for ty-four inches in circumference, af ter being divested of its surplus ! leaves, was raised near Americus, Georgia, last season. An ancient sage once said: -The good ! i.eas ot gold is tried by fire, tt.e giiortness -,t woman by gold ar.il the goodness of [ int-n l.y women.* 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. About n million copies of Web ster's spelling hook continue to be sold annually, it is said, but tioone would snspeet it who reads the mmim-eript sent to a newspaper I office. % W. COLLINS.
