Most of our readers are probably fa miliar with the remarkable saying of Prince Albert when upon Lis dying bed: ■J have had wealth, lank, and power, but if this were all 1 lllid, how wretched I should be now. Itis’k of a * olell for me, Li i me hale uiysell in lo.” It is not to conceive of a more brilliant mid happy lib than was that of Prince Al ii rt. lie was a child of illustrious birth, and the heir to what would generally lie considered large wealth. Toe home lit um childhood was one of the most impos ing ol hurouiiil castles, which feudal pride aud opnleuee had reared upon the heights of Germany. In his early youth lie en joyed every privilege of education earth could give. Tile last teuc!ii-rx ot Europe guided his mind in all branches of know! edge. Obsequious attendants auucipuLed ins wants, ns he freely moved amid the luxurious surroniiihngs ot the castle. Fa miliarity v i h the most cultivated society: gave lu.n tn highest polish of manners, and m. de him familiar Willi the etiqetii* m is.urts. He was oy nature endowed with a tine mind, much amiability of characier, and remarkable beauty of person. Prince Albert thus early In came, in per sonal attractions, iu mental culture, in princely bearing, one of the most accom plished gentlemen in Europe. When; about eighteen years of age he visited the royal family iu England, to which tie was: nearly related. In the gorgeous saloons j of Windsor Uastle and of Buckingham l’al ace he was an .honored guest, lie war. introduced to a circle of society us bril liant and refined us has ever been known; upon earth. And here he won the love ot I lus cousin, the Princess Victoria, the heir ess to the throne of England. Their marriage was an event in which! not only alioiiristiaudum, bat every gov- j eminent on earth was interested. Embas sadors flocked to Luudou, iu honor of the occasion, from all the principal dynasties of Ailieu and Asia. Westminister’s euthe- ' dial was never before crowded with such j an assemblage. All that earthly ambition ! could desire was now attained hy Prince j Albert. 110 was in the enjoyment oi \ wealth unsurpassed in the visions of ro malice. lie had lank which placed him j on .iii equality with the most illustrious! kings. He had power such as few mortals j ever posssossed, and yet without the pres sure ol 101 l and responsibility. An attractive family of sons anil daugh ters grew up around him. He hud no pa ternal anxiety as to pio.ision for their fu ture. As each chill was burn, the British j Parliament voted that child, lor the sup port oi the dignity of the royal family, an annual income of about one hundred thou sand dollars. Ulle daughter rieilthe heir apparent; of tne crown of Prussia. Thus there is , opened to her, perhaps, the highest posi tion which a lady cun now occupy upon this globe—that of the Empress of Ger many. The eldest sou, heir to the throne ol Great Britain, married into tin royal ! family of Denmark. Other brilliant ! alliances open before others of the chil dren. In the midst of all this prosperity, in the meridian of his days—lining but forty two years of agi—sudden disease strikes Prince Albert down, and lie lies upon a dying bed. The regal conch is draped with an imperial canopy. The splendors ’ of a palatial chamber glitter mound the | bed. The highest dignitaries of church! and State arc present with their sympa thy and homage. Hut death is the equalizer of prince anil peasant. The queen is hut a woman weeping, broken hearted, over her dying husband. The royal children are but sons and daughters sobbing in uncontrol-, lube' grief over their dying father. Prince Albert is but a man groaning, fainting, sinking in death—passing from the shad ow of an earthly crown to the tribunal of j God, where, like tile humblest subject in Ins realms, he must answer for every thought word and deed done in the body. In a moment of cessation from pain, lie looked up to the weeping onesaromid him ; and ntt ue.l tue m m r.ui 1 ■ wor. s : “I have had wealth, rank, and power. But if tiiis were all I had, liow wretched should Ibo now. Hack of ■ • *, cleft for me. Let me hide myself in thee.’” He had, we believe, something more. Faith in an atoning Saviour sustained him. He had professed faith in Jesus, and all who knew him believed him to be a sincere : disciple. Reader ! yon will soon be placed on this dying bed. Have you this faith to sus | tain you in that dread hour ?~ Advance. QUITMAN, GA., SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 22, 1873. [Miititli'ton (N. V.) Mercury, November 7.] His Own Ex cutionor A Murderer Starves Himself to Death. j On the 25th of May last Christopher Schwartz, a half-witteil German, employed ill the Goshen jail as watchman, was clink* oil to death in an attempted escape hy a negro named Alexander Diamond and a white man named Morgan To this at tempted escape and resulting murder an other inmate of the jail, Jerry MeDanielx, was privy. Diamond and Morgan were tried at tile last term of the Court, anil were seutt need to tt n years’ imprisonment each. McDaniels was not tried, and re mained in jail. On tile l ltli of October McDaniels refused to take either food or drink. He would give no explanation of Ins reasons, talking to no one, but persist ently maintaining a moody silence. Two of his fellow-prisoners united with him in his plan. Their names were Jerry Lucy, from Goshen, awaiting trial for petit lar- I ceuy, and John McCarthy, from Alills i burg, who was serving out a four months’ sentence on a conviction for the same of fence. All persisted 111 their refusal to eat or drink until they became very weak, and on a physician certifying that long, r con finement would cause death. McCarthy was released and Lucy was bailed by his friends. No such luck was ill store for McDaniels. He still persisted in his de sign. To the inquiries ot tie* keeper as to whether he wanted anything lie return ed surly answers, and resolutely refused all proffers of sympathy and relief. In the early part of last week a physician who had been called said that lie must take a tuiilespi ion oil of whiskey in half a cup of milk every two hours or die. He took the mixture a few times, and then clos' and hi- < 111 when the cup was proffer ed him. He also refused to lie upon his bed, and as long as he was strong enough roll- and off'it to the stone floor as often as his attendant placed him upon it. He rein ed to see a clergyman, even when told th. t he must die, and w hen Mr. Bald win, the turnkey, asked him if he wished to leave any message hi* uier iy muttered an oath, and at night when all was quiet he liliten the jail with blasphemies. For seventeen days he took no sustenance so tar as is known, with the exception of a few cups of whiskey and milk, and finally an Thursday, October lib, ho died, liis death was fearful. He was conscious to the last, aud died with an unfinished curse upon his lips. His death by lus own de liberate net was perhaps a fitting end to a life Limt was not brightened by a single good or honorable act, and the si'lf-inthct cd agony was but a natural result ot the uadcvi.itiug cruelty timt marked all his acts towards everything to which cruelty would possibly lie shown. Tho Happy Man and True Gentleman. The happy mflii was born in the city of regeneration, iu the parish of repentance an to life. He was educated at the school of obedience, and lives now by faith in perseverance. lie works at the trade of diligence, “notwithstanding lie lias a large estate m the country of Christian content ment, and many times does jobs of self denial. He w ars the plain garb of hu mility. He often walks in the valley of self-abasement, and not tin frequently climbs the mountain of spiritual mindeduess. lie breuktastsevery morning upon spiritual prayer, and sups every evening upon the same. He has meat to cat that the world knows not of. and his drink is the sincere milk of tile world. Thus happy lie lives and happy he dies.” Happy is he who lias gospel submission in his will, due or der in his affections, sound peace ill his conscience, sanctifying grace iu his soul, true humility in Ins heart, leal divinity in his breast, the Redeemer’s yoke on his neck, a vail] world under his feet, and a crown of glory over his head; happy is the life of siieli a person. In order lo attain which, pray fervently, believe firmly, wait patiently, work abundantly, live liolilv, die daily, watch your h alt, guide JK>Ur senses, redeem your time, love (Jurist and tong for glory. A true gentleman is God’s seivaiit, the whole world’s master and Ins ow n man. Virtue his business study, his recreation, contentment, liis rest unit hap piness, Ins reward; God is liis father, the church is his mother, the saints are his brethren, and he is a friend to all that need him; Heaven is his inheritance, religion is liis mistress, loyalty aud justice his two maids of honor, devotion his chap lain, chastity his chamberlain, sobriety his butler, temperance his cook, hospitality his amiable housekeeper, providence his good steward, charity his treasurer, piety is mi .tress of the house, and discretion is porter to let m and out as is most fit. Thus is liis whole family made up of vir tues, and he is the true master of the family. He is necessitated to take the world in his way to heaven; but lie walks through it us fast as he can; and all liis business by the way is to glorify the name of Goil and do good to mankind. Take uim nil in two words— He is a man—a Christian. —From (in old Theological Maga zine, 171)7. The plain commonplace direction of the Scripture, everywlier'- offered the backslider, cannot possibly fail of being under food. The Bible says : If you are conscious of doing wrong, then end it. Turn on your track and begin again. .Start anew where you left oft. If we doubt our present experience, it is never worth while at all to chase it up. A fresh one will lie better. We are just to go back, and lay over the foundations. It oftentimes happens that some flaw in ma teria!, or construction, render, a most stately building a nuisance to the neigh borhood. end a shame to the architect. He knows that the work on it ns it is with out any alterations, will only result in a botch. It would lie far wiser to com mence with t! - lowest stones, and do tin* ■•ntire work as it ought to be done. — Charles S. Hohiuson. — An authentic copy of an entry of the birth of Washington in the Bible of his mother is in the follow ing words: “George Washington, son of Augustine and Mary his wife,was horn ye 11th day of February 1732. abont tarn in the morning, mid was baptized the 3d of April following, Be verly Whiting and Capt. Chriatopliei Brooks, godfathers, and Mrs. Mildred Gregory, godmother.” Anew and cruel invention is the intro duction of living butterflies into the centre pieces of flowers, which usually adorn the middle of the table at fashionable dinner and supper parties. The poor insects are fastened by a fine wire, which is passed through their bodies, and concealed among ! the flowers. Modern Ejjypt. The land of the Khedive is likely soon j to rival in greatness the ancient kingdom lof the I’haroalis and the Ptolemies. Aloil i ern Egypt cannot, it is true, compare with ancient Egypt in the number of ltsiuhub itunts, for Diodorus tells us that the kilter contained thirty thousand towns and vil lages, w hile Herodotus tells us that in the reign of Anutsis there wi re in Egypt twen ty thousand cities. What successive sovereigns, however, from Sesostris to the caliphs failed to effect, or accomplished only in part, lias been completely achieved under the rule of the Khedive, bv the opening of the Suez Canal, while Alexan dria and Caroi are fast becoming cities of palaces, and the wealth of the country is every day increasing. Western prejudice attributes the pres ent ignorance of the Mussulman popula tion of Turkey to Islmnism, mid concludes that the religion of Mohammed is a bar to all human progress. Aliy one, however, who visited Egyptten years ago, and coqkl now see the vast improvements that have been and are still being made by the Khedive, would at once have his preju dices very mueh modified if not altogether removed. He would see the harbor of Alexandria, the fin st, probably, in the world,*crowded with the shipping of all nations, with anew breakwater and new docks in course of completion, warehouses tilled with cotton, grain and other agri cultural produce ready for export, rail ways in operation or in course of eonstrue- I tiou -everywhere, in fact, the signs of iu i creasing civilization and prosperity. Ho would see Alexandria itself more like a European than an Eastern eitv, with its magnificent buildings and its “Palace des Consuls” that exceeds in beauty any square to be found in Europe. He would see the land, irrigated by the means of machinery, everywhere teeming with rich crops of wheat, maize, lmrley, beans and peas, clover and flax, rice, sugar-cane, to bacco and coffee, liuligo and madder; the gardens producing apricots in May ; peaches, plums, apples, pears and carets in June ; grapes, tigs ana prickly pears in July ; pomegranates, lemons and dates in August; oranges in October ; sweet lem ons and bananas in November ; anil the mulberry and Seville oranges in January, j (n olden times we know there was “corn 1 in Egypt,” and cotton, too, of the best j description. Even six years ago there j were not less than two hundred steam | plows at work in cotton cultivation. ! Every mechanical aid to production has, in fact, been made use of, and the result is au enormous increase of wealth, both to the people and their rulers. The romance of travel in Egypt is dis appearing. A lien bridge has been re cently put by the Khedive over the Nile, so tiiat travelers can go direct iu carriages from their hotel to the pyramids without being obliged, as formerly, lo cross the I liver in boats and finish the excursion on t camels or donkeys. The old “di'halieah.” j or Nile boat, is giving way to the compar atively luxurious Nile steamer, and the clmruis of that dreamy Epicurean life. | floating down the river, will soon become a memory of the past. No more encamp jim nts beneath the myriad stars and the | wondrous sky of an Egyptian night, | amidst the labyrinth of pillars, obelisks aud fallen temples of Luxor or Kuruuk. Instead oi, as heretofore, passing the ! night on land under a tent, the traveler ! now sleeps in his comfortable bi rth, oil j board the Khedive's steamer, and “does” j the Nile in three weeks instead of three | months, ns in the palmy days of the “de j hubeuhs. ” During the winter of 1871, be fore the steamers began to ply, the price I asked for a fii’st-elass boat was from $l5O ; to SOOO a month ; while now the voyage— -1585 miles -from Cairo to Phil®, a few miles above the cataract, and back again, I can be made by the passenger steamers I on the Nile belonging to the Khedive nd ; ministration, at n cost of $220, including I steamer, living, guides, and all other nec essary expenses.
