to lack as it were tho ‘‘backspting,”
They .are fitted for some useful work,
and they could succeed in some use!til
occupation, if they had tho ‘’back
spring,’’ or determination.
They lack will, energy and persever¬
ance. The blade is keeu enough, but
it is worthless without tho ‘backspring.’
If a young man would succeed ho must
havo self will, and believe that all
things are in his reach if he will but use
the means toobtaiu them. If ho would
be a doctor, let hi /, study physic; and
not only learn of the most common dis
ases, but delve into the very depth of
tho science, and ferret nut tho most
difficult portions of i', lio need not

“hut” as ever man occupied. Their
father died when they wero but chil¬
dren, and their mother is one of na¬
ture's most afflicted daughters. Their
hut is almost entirely destitute of the
ordinary articles necessary for house¬
keeping. Tho door is down, tho cracks
are all open, the floor is of dirt, and all
seems to havo the appearance uf utter
poverty. Now this is tho home of these
two lads. One cf them is a very bright
energetic boy, while the other is very
calm and almost entirely destitute of ‘
determination. The latter i3 disheart
eped; he thjuks fate is against them,
and that they aro destined to utter
poverty. The former looks forward for
a better day. and sets to work to bring ! i
it about. While the other is afraid to
do any thing, for fear he will not sue- ;
cec( j. i
The energetic boy works on until he i
reaches a permanent position in life, \
and bis fellow countrymen honor him
with the most responsible cffice influential of his j
State; and be is now the most
mac of which his country can boast.
All this he attained by perseverance,
or in other words, be had the back

easy way, and still lives in a ‘log cabin’
with but few more comforts than when
he was a boy.

country throw about them the mantle
of perseverance; take determination for

Sud. When the bill was up in tho
house on the Jfith of April. 1880, to
the revenue laws, Mr. Speer was
■pirating' round on an excursion down
the Totomick, or some other creek,
a a d a Mr. Van Vorhees sailed into our
people aud accused them of all sorts of
lawlessness, of which they were not
a *Ry. and had it not been for that
old hero, Philip Cook, of the
third Georgia district, tho slanders
would havo gone out to tho world un
refuted. No wonder the ‘agonized con¬
vention,' as Air. Lawsho is pleased to
call it, thauked Mr. Cook for his gall
aut services in behalf of our people,
and no wonder the Southron floats at
its mastxhead an acknowledgment of
services that were so faithfully reudor
ed. I see that a little ‘gratitude’ still
remains in Mr. Lawshe’s breast, if he is
wanting tedious in several other particulars
t°° to mention.
' rde above are only a few of tho rea
sodb for my abandonment of Air. Speer
in this campaign. It may become
necessary before tbe‘cruel war is over’

The statement in the Southron that
Col. Boll, Mr. Garner and myself made
anv arrangements in Col Towerv's room
at Gumming, in the interest of Ol Hell
or looking to the candidacy of Col.
Crane, of Habersham, is a falsehood
manufactured out of the whole cloth.
I have just seen Col. Towery and ho
will corroborate this stateineet—ho
could not as a gentleman do otherwise.
This statement i« only in keeping with
tho reckless way Mr. Lawsbe has evrn
cod throughout his entire editorial carer
of publishing statements wanting in
truth, when probed to the bottom. I
never had one word with Col. lidl, in Cam
winy nr, the subject •alluded to. I did
talk with T. S. Garner and most of the
leading republicans of Forsyth county.
Wo -did agree to put out a repulican
candidate; we did agree to run Col.

Mr. Lawsbe and hia Speer band. I will
say I wont to see C->1. Crane, //e con¬
sented to run, and with an open field
ana fair play he will undoubtedly bo
our next representative—Bell aud Speer
to the contrary notwithstanding. Col.
Bell is tho nominee of the democratic
party, aud Mr. Speer—well he is the
‘one man power’ candidate, I can’t
support Bell. I won't endorse the rec¬
ord of Speer. 1 am therefore for Crane,

at your leisure, and make the most of
it. I am, very respectfully,

REPORT OF YISITINGCOMMITTEE
TO
NACGGCHEE HIGH SCHOOL.
Dear Brethren; It was the priv
lege otf your com»ittee to visit this
school .on tho 81 h of July, at the closing
exercises of tho 1st Term of the present
year 1880.
We think wo can safely report the
school in prosperous condition. Al¬
though the attendance has not been so
large as it was la.°t year, yet the school
shows unmistakable signs of improve
’.pent. New chemical apparatus has
broil purchased for (lie At-mud. -AteakU
cabinet of curiosities lias been collected,
consisting of beautiful quartz, curious
stones, Indian relics, &e, The school¬
room has been supplied with Maury’s
wall maps, which are both useful an I
ornamental. By tnese improvements
the labor of the teacher is rendered less
arduous, and the work of the pupil
more attractive.
While ypureommittee were interested
in all the exercises witnessed, yet they
were particularly delighted in the recis
rations in Physical Geography. Natural
Philosophy and ehemestry. These re¬
citations showed thorough teaching,
and apt schollarships- Pupils were
taught lo look through nature up to
nature's God,
With these increased facilities for im
parting instructiou, with a situation in
the beautiful valley of Nacoocbee, in the
midst of intelligent and religious socie
ty, with cheap board aud tuition, this
school certainly ought to receive a
larger patronage The people of White
eouuty, especially, ought togve it a lib¬
eral support.
Throughout the bounds of the Dah¬
lonega Dist., let parents who have sons,
or daughters to educate, consider well
the claims of this institution before they
determine to send their children else-,
where.
It is with great delight tbat your
committee notice some progress in the
cause of education in tho bounds of the
Dahlouoga Dist. Ten years ago a
school could hardly bo found in all this
wide section of country, in which more
than the rudiments of a common English
education wa3 taught; now there are
quite a number of schools in which the
higher branches of education are suc¬
cessfully taught. These schools would
grow and others would be es’ablisbed
and maintained, if our people had a
higher appreciation of education, and
felt more keenly a souse of their duty.
Among tnese schools no one is more
worthy than our Dist. school. We
commend it to the fostering care of the
church and to the patronage of our
people. offer
Your committee beg leave to the
following resolutions:
Besolced 1st. That wo as a Dist.
Conference, extend our sympathies to
Rev. J, J. Mothvin aud his assistant
teachers, in their delicate and difficult
work; also that we pledge ourselves to
more earnest effort in promoting the
interests of the school.
2nd. That we will not. and our peo¬
ple ought not to depend, entirely, upon
the system of three months public
schools for the education of our children;
but that we will establish and maintain,
atcommou expense, private schools, ‘acd
thereby endeavor to bring about reac¬
tion in the matter of education in our
own section of country.
Allot which is respectfully submit¬
ted. G. K. Quillian,
