Such a law would remove the great barrier that now stands be tween the people of the State and for eign capital, and would notonly make money easier to obtain, but would re duce the rate of interest. It is the man of limited means who has to borrow, and not the money lender, who stands most in need of a good, healthy collection law. The man who has money to loan in Geor- f ia can, with the exercise of an abun- tnce of caution, find reasonably safe investment for it at a high rate of interest. If he loans it at all he will, nine times out of ten, exact usurious interest, for the reason that, under the operation of our defective aud uncer tain collection system', capital is timid and the demands of the borrowing class are always in excess of the supply of money that the limited number of lenders have on hand or are willing to invest, in view of the uncertainties and delays of the law. A majority of the farmers and busi ness men of Goorgia are money bor rowers. Any law that would have a "Into Each Life Some Bain Must; Undency t^incre^e^the suppry Vf COLLEGE TEMPLE W. & J.

ATLANTA HOME INSURANCE CO, ATLANTA. GA. Fall. Mlznab, in Sunny South.] What sorrow and heartfelt sighs do these few words express! How mauy sublime inspiratious—how many well matured plans do they prove that Sorrow’s band ha9 wrecked! Just ae we stand, perhaps, on the border of budding womanhood—at the very portal of a fairy land that Fancy in Elysian dreams has painted—Sor row's breath blights at once every dream of girlhood, drowns the dreams of a lifetime and leaves us In the storm with only the sweet promises of prayer arid faith to bring back lost happiuess—with only the sweet solace that never, never is prayer in vain when winged by faith. Borne ever onward by Time's resistless course, we busy, hurrying mortals have no thought for human sighs or sorrows. And thus, without warning, the show ers of adversity deluge happy lives and homes. Oft when we sail secure beneath the sunniest skies, adverse fortune turns the tide and bears us swifily toward the ocean of eternity. Oft, too, when we have builded castles of rare and delicate architecture, yet made no preparation for the inevita ble rains; it'fallsupon the castle,bury ing crushed hopes and a broken heart within its ruins. Ah, well, "whose the fault and whose the blame?” Did we enfold too closely the tempt ing lusts aud pleasures of the world, unheeding all the while the wild clouds and lightning shafts that her alded the dark storm? Yes, heralded the dark storm of sorrow that, like retribution, is swift and sure. I’erchuuce the sorrow comes through one who for years has claimed our tenderest love and care—a loved broth er, a cherished child, a once fond mother or a dotiDg father. Then the newnan CAPITAL, - $200,000.00: beautiful, divine precept, "Forgive us j our trespasses as we forgive those who I trespass agaiust us,” seems doubly Strictly a Home Institution. i hard ; “ nd ™ ls Unheeded upon our ; wrecked and darkened lives; and the Seeking Home Patronage. ; harsh words, “I will never forgive,” come from the bleeding heart. Yet money aud reduce the rate of luterest would, therefore, be greatly to the ben efit of all classes, the rich as well as the poor. A good colled ion law would ac complish this for them just as certain ly as cause produces effect. Whenev er it became known that the laws of the State required the payment of just debts and made the debtor's property liable for his debts, theD capital would come here for investment, and a man could horrow money to the extent of the value of his property, at a reason able rate of interest. Under our present system a man has to be comparatively rich to have any credit. The poor man who is compelled to borrow not only has no credit but has no collateral. He may have a bouse and Jot or a farm, but this is not good collateral to the ex tent of anything like its value. It Is hard to foreclose a mortgage and sell property under the existing laws of this State, whenever the debtor under takes to tight the claim or avail him self of the law’s delay, firstunder one pretext and tbeu another. As has already been said, the bor rowing or debtor class is largely in the majority in this State. For tbiB rea son legislation iu favor of this class baa been popular ever since the war. B. t our Legislatures bavemade a mis take. The poliev that has been pur sued has had a tendency to oppress rather than benefit the debtor. It has had the effect of shaking confidence and making capital timid. It has de prived the man of small means of all credit and conferred it upon the man of wealth who does not need it. MALE SEMINARY, NEWNAN, GA. Owned and Controlled by Well-known Geor gians of Unquestioned Financial Ability. The Freedman's Savings Bank. The Intcr-Ocean gives the following history of the Freedman’s Savings Bank: The Freedman’s Bank was proposed as a purely charitable eater- prise to encourage frugality and thrift among the newly liberated blacks. Mr Hu inner reported the bill chartering the bank, February 17, 1865, and on the 3d of March, following, it became have the habit of stirring up every thing at once. They begin their day’s work anywhere, without any relation to what is most urgent or necessary to be acomplished. They lose sight of the always excellent rule, one thing at a time, and that first which fs most important. It is a good plan to sit quietly down at the beginning of each day and lake a survey of the domestic field, decide wbat must be done, and what, in case of lack of time or the intervention of other duties, may be put off, and then set t* work without undue haste to perform necessary du ties. Learn to do it quietly, without noise. Be careful to take no useless steps. There is a vast amount of strength expended in this way and nervous energy wasted. I know a young housekeeper who accomplishes more in otre cay thau the majority of women do in two. She never seems to be in a hurry, never gets ipto a "stew,” but she works as uoisetessl v and steadily as the sunlight. She%as no cross purposes to contend with. She aims right at the mark through every movement of her hand «nd by every footstep. If she has no house-cleaning to atteud lo she doesn’t commence by tearing up every room iu tbe house and putting the entire establishment in a chaos of confusion. But she takes one room at a time, has it cleansed and purified and put to rights again befoie there is any further upheaval. The usual spring cleaning comesand goes In that family without producing any dis comfort or any great amount of incon venience.

The country lad who is trained to simple ways and homely virtues, and who learns what a dollar is worth i.y actually earning it uuder Ihe laws of imperative necessily, has a tremen dous advantage over the town boy. The country schools are far interior to the town or city echools, but this is coun terbalanced by the fact that the coun try boy is trained to work from tbe time he can pick up corn cobs to ruu tbe kitchen stove, till he goes out to his owu home. The country tiny has a mile or so of walk to and from school, which gives bima vigorous ap petite and health. The country boy or girl is face to face with practical realities. He sees how slowly money is made on the farm; heistaugnt from youth up the need of economy; he has- the nature of saving first explained to him every day in the week; he is not exposed lo the temptation of tbe saloon or the ball-room; be is not templed so much to be a lady’s man before be has occasion to use a razor on bis downy cheeks. He may be a trifle rode-, -he may not feel easy in company, but in tbe long, closely contested race of life, it is tlie chap that trudges to school bare-footed in summer and in stogas in winter, whose mother cuts his hair with the sheep-shears, that leads the chap that g..es to tbe city school with the starched shirt frout and fancy slippers, and whose head is shaved with the lawn mower in the barber snop3. Such has been our observation and we think we know wbat we are talking about. Speaking from expe rience, we never read any books with such avidity as those we devoured while the horses were restlngat theenrt of the plowfurrow. The boys we envied forty years ago, because they wore eas- sirnere and laughed at our jeans, have dropped so far back iu the race that we have almost forgotten them. The chaps who bad plenty of money at college, and the city bred fellows, have not been, as a rule, heard from much since: while the country boys who wore plain clothes and kept close to their books in the old college, are leading public thought in Iowa and other States to-day. Wbat a Wife Ought to Know. Contemporary Review.] Very few men have the time or tbe paCence to make a •hilling go as far it cau—women have. Especially a woman a hose one thought is to save her husband from burdens greater than be can hear; to help him by that quiet carefulness iu money matters which alone gives an easy mind and a real enjoyment of life; to take care of the pennies, in short, that he may need, aDd lawful pleasures, too. Sure ly there can t>e no sharper pang to a loving wife thau to see her husband staggering under tbe weight of family life; worked almost to death in order to dodge "the wolf at tbe door;” Joy less iu the present, terrified at the fu ture; and yet all this might have been averted it the wife had known the val- •c aud use of money, and been able to keep what her husband earned; to "cut her coat according to her cloth,” forany income is limited unless you can teach yourself to live within it; to “w^iste urn,” aud therefore to "want not.” But this is not always the wo man's fault. Many meu insist blindly • >□ a style of living which their means will not allow; uud many a wife has been cruelly blamed for living at a rate of expenditure unwarranted by her husband's means, and which his pecuniary condition made absolutely dishonest, bad she known it. But shb did not know it, he being ton careless or loo cowardly lo tell her, and Bbe had not the sense to inquire or to fiud'out. Every mistress of a household—espe cially every mother—ought to find out what the family iueome is, and where It comes from, and thereby prevent all needless extravagance. Half the miserable or di-graceful bankruptcies uever would happen if the wives bad tbe sense and courage to stand firm and iusist on knowing enough about the family income to expend it propor tionately; to restrain, as every wife should, a too lavish husband; or fail- Icgin that, to deprive herself of all lux ttries which she cannot, righteously af ford.

Baltimore Record.] There Is onedanger that may possibly Cause some tronble in the growing in dustrial centers of the Smith, unless steps are taken to prevent it. The rapid ri9e in the value of real estate, and the large increase in consequence in tbe house rents, must necessarily be very seriously felt by mechanic*. Either their wages must be propor tionately increased, thus enlarging the cost of manufactured goods, or they will be driven to seek work else where, unless a remedy can be fouud. The leaders in the development of the industrial centers of the South must face this matter and settle it very quickly. To secure a prosperous and contented laboring class there must notonly be cheap rents, but also the oi partunity of purchasing homes at moderate prices. The South caunnt afford to ignore this question. If real estato is to continue on the UDward move within tbe limits of these cities, then there must he provision made for reaching tbe suburbs by cheap trans portation, and then arrangements mast be made wherehy the workmen can secure homes. The managers of the great manufacturing enterprises growing up in the Bouth will advance their own Interests by taking steps to secure something of this klud. Newuau. Ga., March Ith, 1SS7.

But her M j-siy will, in tbe course of this year, have reigned. In one sense, lon ger than any English sovereign; for of the three Kings whose reigus will have exceeiied ber’s at ihe Jubilee cel ebration in June next not one actually ruled for so long a period as GO years. King Henry III. was crowned on the death of King John iu 1216, but the regency was lutrusted to the Earl of Pembroke, and it was not until 1222 • hat the King was declared of age. King Edward III. succeeded to the ihroneoii the deposition of bis father in 1327: hut it was nut until 1330 that be assumed the government, so that he only ruled from that date to his death iu 1377—forty-seven years. King George III. practically ceased to reign six weeks after the comple tion of his fifty years’ reign; but if we except tbe period during which his former mental affliction lasted—name ly, from the beginning of November, 1789, until the following February-- his Majesty’s actual rule fell belew the period of 50 years. It Is proposed first to Inquire into the great origin of jubilees, and then, by reference to the works of tbe principal historians, to show the national importance of tbe reigns of the three monarchs who have worn the English crown for more than fifty years.

Railroads in 1746. London World.J I have seou a veritable curiosity. It is the first edition of the popular work affectionately kuown as Bradshaw, though its original style and title, at formal length, is “Bradshaw’s Rail way Companion, containing I he Times of Departure, Fares, eio., of the Rail ways in England.” At the timeofits publication the railways In England were the London and Birmingham,tbe Great 'Wes'ern, ihe Southern, the Croydon, aud ihe Eastern Counties, e-uch with its termiuus in Loudon. Then there were the Liverpool and Manchester, tbe Lancasier and Pres ton, aud other promising young lines in Lancashire, and there was the Grand Junction line, with its budding branches aud extension*. The firs; Bradshaw,;publi*hed iu 1840, is a beau tifully neat and simple affair, and might be buried with ease in the deep waistcoat pocket of a trav.lng suit. It measures, iu fact, 4 inches by 3, and is of no thickness at all to speak of, evea with its stiff and serviceable boards, which were the more necessa ry, inasmuch as the little book, price Is., was not intended to be issued monthly, though “G. Bradshaw would feel particularly obliged by an intima tion being forwarded to him at 27 Brown street, Manchester, of any change in fares or times of departure on any of the lines, in order that the correction may be immediately made, in the work.” he eats, but be is very domestic and must have a home, llils Is generally located under tbe eaves of a building insured for its full value, though it sometimes bangs from tbe limb of a treeorbusb. As no wasp expects to live to see Lite new year come In he doesn’t break his back to lay in a store of pork and potatoes, and it makes no difference t<> him whether coal goes up or down. He spends the timo from May to October in sloshing around at tending country fairs, horse races and wrestling matches, aud having more or less to do in tbe harvest field and around cider mills. It is a disputed point whether the wasp can bite hard er than the bull dog, but the weight of opinion iH in favor of the wasp. He seems mad about something all the time, and it doesn’t make any differ ence whether Ins victim is tbe babe in the cradle or the father in the barn yard. Five months is the average life ■ >f the wasp, and he is heard from about as often us any other insect on the programme. .What an Egg Will Do. Fur burns and scalds nothing is more soothing than the white of an egg, which may be poured over the wound. It is softer as a varnish for a burn than collodion, and being al ways at band can be applied. It is also more cooling than sweet oil and cotton, which was formerly supposed to be tbe surest application to allay smarting piin. It is the contact with the air which gives the extreme dis comfort experienced from the ordina ry accident of this kind, and anything that excludes tbe air and prevents in flammation is the ’bing to at once ap ply.
