MARK Atlanta, Georgia Land of Promise (TO AND FROM) By Rev. C. O’N. Maktinoai.e. ARTICLE LVIII. (6). ITALY. From Rome to Pisa Florence (Firenze). and Early on Monday, May 9th, we left “the Grosser Kurfuerst Party” ’ at Rome for a trip across Europe, many small groups being formed to this end. Mr. J. Samuel Car- roll, a jovial, whole-souled man, a banker and merchant from Troy. Alabama, companioned with the writer on this most pleasurable undertaking, each working to the advantage of the other as occasion allowed. Leaving Rome at 8 a. m, we ar rived in the City of Pisa at 2:23 p tn. and at once took carriage for a drive to the points of interest. We had a delightful surprise awaiting us in the truly lovely Cathedral, the Baptistery, the Campo Santo, and the Campanile or Leaning Tower, all in a group in the north ern part of the town. The Cathe dral commemorates the defeat ot the Moslems at Palermo, in mag nificent Tuscan Gothic architec ture of white and colored marbles, remarkable facade of columns and larches, double aisles, and dome lined with Cimabue’s mosaics, splendidly gilded ceiling, massive 1 bronze doors designed by John of Bologna, and swinging-lamp from which Galileo got the idea of the pendulum, twelve altars designed by Michel Angelo, and carved pul pit by Niccolo Pisano. In front of the Cathedral is the finest Bap tistery in the world,in similar style with the foregoing, marble, and surrounded with ancient columns, containing a hexagonal pulpit on seven columns with six reliefs by Niccolo Pisano, and handsome font, and with a musical echo that is no less than marvellous. The Campo Santo off to one side of the Cathedral is an enclosure filled with fifty-five ship-loads of earth | From Pisa we the same day took I train to Florence, or Firenze, as the Italians call it, arriving about 7:15 p. m., after supper and a stroll turning into our hotel for the night, to be up betimes the next morning and under the skillful piloting of one of Thos. Cook & Son’s being shown the cream of Florence’s good things in a day. “Florence the Genteel,” “the City of fair flowers and flower of fair cities,” “the fairest city in the world,” presents all the amenities and adornments resulting from a high state of social culture and civilization, more so it is said than any other city in the world; and is located in the valley of the River Arno, “at the foot of gentle hills, guarded on the north and east by lofty mountains, and surrounded with charming hills and valleys, views of mountains and plains, and everything that nature can lavish and art devise to make her pre eminently ‘the Beautiful City.’ ” Well does one of her sweetest poets say: "How little dreams The traveller of today who soes thee glass Thy sunny charms within the Arno’s breast, How oft they've reddened with thy children's blood!" But turn whithersoever we will in this fair city of gardens and pal aces, stately churches and broad streets and piazzas, new attractions are found, peculiarly so in art work. As one has put it— 'Where'er our ohnrmed and wondering gaze we turn, Art, History, and Tradition wait to claim Our deepest thought; statues and mar ble groups Adorn the streets; the very stones have tongues— The holy fanes, the towers, are elo quent." The city’s nine gates still stand, but, in lieu of its olden walls about it, we find broad avenues or boule vards (Vialli) planted with trees, thus enhancing its beauty, a city full of liberty and new life, and none of the appalling clash be tween the modern and the ancient. Here lived such notable person ages as Galileo and Amerigo Ves- "TO THE SUPREME BEING "The prayers 1 make will then be sweet indeed, If Thou the spirit give by which I pray; My unassisted heart is barren clay, Which of its native self cau nothing feod; Of good and pious works Thou art the seed, Which quickens only where Thou say’st it may, Unless Thou show to us Thine own true way. No man can find it. Father, Thou must lead. Do Thou, then, breathe those thoughts iuto my mind By which such virtue limy in me be bred That in Thy holy fontsteps I may trend; The fetters of my tongue do Thou un bind. That I might have the power to sing of Thee. And sound Thy praises everlastingly." When one reads such lines, one is not all surprised at his rising to extraordinary greatness and grand eur among men. (To he continued.) The Ethics of Rewards.

There is not a weed alive which will not sooner or later respond liberally to good cultivation, and peristent selection, and thus become of commercial importance to the world. Science sees better grains, nuts, fruits and vegetables, all in new forms, sizes, colors and flavors, with more nutriatits and less waste and with every injurious and poi sonous quality eliminated, and with power to resist sun, wind, rain,frost and destructive fungus and insect pests. It sees 1 letter fruits without stones, seeds or spines, 1 letter fiber, coffee, tea, spice, rubber oil, paper ami tim ber trees and better sugar starch, color and perfume plants. Every one of these and 10,000 more are within the reach of the most ordi nary skill in plant breeding. It would not be difficult for a man to breed a new rye, wheat, barley, oats or rice which would produce one grain more to each head, or a corn which would pro duce an extra kernel to each ear, another potato to each plant or un apple, plum, orange or nut to each tree. Suppose this was done; what would be the result! In the live staples only, in this country alone, we should have annually without effort and without cost, more than 5,200,000 extra bushels of corn, 15,000,000 extra bushels of wheat, 20,000,000 extra bushels of oats, 1,500,000 extra bushels of barley, 21,000,000 extra bushels of 1 iota toes.” Our Southern farmers, as well as those thousands who contem plate locating in the South, should study Mr. Burbank’s work earn estly, as -a source of inspiration, and heed fiis words well as appli cable to the value of intensive rather than extensive farming.

Of course thm is an invitation to subscribe; and we take this method of letting people unacquainted with Tiih Nkwh read a few copies in order to determine if they wish to become permanent readers. Every sample copy of Tim N'kwh mailed lias the wordH, “Bample Copy” printed at the top of first page in hold type. No person is expected to or can be made to pay for sample copies of a newspaper. Therefore, any person may, with per fect propriety and freedom, receive from a postoflice or carrier sample copies of Tim N'kwh, with the assurance that they will never lie asked to pay for them. Tim N'kwh trusts all persons receiving sample copies will give them card'll! consideration. It is unfair to condemn Tim Nkwh without a hearing (or, a reading) and we feel sure but very few people in Coweta county arc so narrow-minded and prejudiced as to lie unwilling to read a few sample copies of this paper. Till'. Nkwh seeks patronage on its merits as a newspaper. It. neither panders to prejudice nor bows to puerility. It neither fears to approve right nor to condemn wrong. Tt proposes to meet all men and all issues in a spirit o<’ candor, fairness and courtesy; but it does not propose to be a trimmer or a dodger, nor to veil its attitude on any question with a multitude of idle words. Tim N'kwh hits straight from the shoulder and ex presses its sentiments in the plainest English at its command. These are a few words in reference to tilt* principles con trolling the conduct of Tim N’kwh. In addition to these things, Tim N'kwh prints the news of Coweta county with impartiality; and as it desires to excell shall endeavor as the days go by to print more news than any other county paper and to give the people the liest service ob tainable in a county paper. This we regard as a laudable ambition; and have no apol ogies to make for possessing that spirit or being guided by its' inspiration. Finally, all Tim Nkwh asks is that persons who receive sample copies will examine them in a spirit of fairness, and render an unprejudiced verdict as to this paper’s merits and ito claims for patronage. If all will do this, Tim Nkwh will lie satis fied with their verdict, whether it is favorable or unfavorable to this paper. Try vs for Job Printing. e X X ^
