And if all this is too much, let some good man iu each of these villages give the boys five, or four, or three, or even two aerts of land, even though it was worth'SlOO.per acre, for a vil-“ luge play-ground. Boys and young men naturally love play, out-door sports of every kind, and under little healthy stimulus and careful direction this natural taste can be developed and strengthened. No boy is going to sit around saloon of auy sort when by going few steps he can witness a first- class game of base-ball, or, what is better still, can take part in one. Boys aye not constructed that way. Notice in the cities how all sorts of boys, and youDg men, too, are eager to witness a game of ball how much more eager to play it. I for them.

To take him from the hails of congress and place him in the gubernatorial chair, would be to take a gallant captain from the field, where he had won his spurs in bloody con flict, and place him in the com missary department. Crisp' is a field officer, and a braver one never couched lance or wielded sabre. In the intellectual tournament with the enemies of right and justice, he has proven himself a veritable Ivanhoe, and by his skill and strength in debate, he unhorsed his opponents, one after another, until but one resource was left them, and they overwhelmed him by sheer force of numbers. They could not resist his logic; they simply outvoted him. Hence forth when he rises in the house the democratic members will rally to him as the gallant Frenchmen at Ivry rallied to Henry of Na varre, and his white plume will be their orifiamme in many a well- contested fight “If yon want to promote Judge Crisp, we are with you. The gov ernorship would nat be a promo tion; the United States Senator- ship would. Will you who have been urging that he be rewarded for his gallantry, join the Dispatch land News in pressing him for the United States Senate. That is something he has justly won. There his splendid forensic talents would have an ample field. That would be a promotion in accord with his merits—one meetjor his gallaut services. ‘,What say you brethren of the press—Charles F.

In words, the south has outgrown her old draperies and has become a giant in the race ; for material wealth and advancement, where once it toddled with uncertain step. No people ever possessed so vast or richly endowed a country, or one so happily situated for complete and symmetrical development. The finger of nature points to the south as the country where the most important mechanical devel opments will occur during the re mainder of the present century. Happy and hopeful are the people over the great change, that has come, and confident that their prosperity is solid. In a community where roads are well kept yon will find a thriving people. That good roads add very much to the value of real estate around them, is not only a well- known fact in the experiences of any one who has ever been on the search for a farm or dwelling- place, but they have for ages been considered as the chief test of the state of civilization in the commu nity in which people and nations have existed. and valuable! •Sample*.

Fortunately there is no profession al foot-ball as yet. Moreover, if you provide the -opportunity for one or two hours’ hard physical excercise in the afternoon, yon heed not worry about the evening. There is no safe guard quite so good against nocturnal deviations as a good, healthy, all-around tiredness. Why is not that which is good for our college boys good for all our boys? Why is not that which is good for hoys in large towhs good for boys in small towns? Why has not the boy of the coun try village's just as good a right to the opportunity to distinguishhim- self in the great games of the Na tion as any boy whatsoever? Are we going too far to encourage ath letics? Let us answer the question by asking whether we can go too far to encourage health? Do we shudder at the possible danger of becoming a Nation pf athletes? The Greeks in all their glory were that, and their athletes were not trained alone in academic halls and city gymnasiums. fr—©—« : r The Pitfsburg Times makes the following statement: The South is producing more cotton than when she had millions of slaves at her command, and, astonishing a^'i-t may be to most people who have not kept pace with her progess, from .producing less than .one- eighth of the country’s iron nine years ago, to day she is producing about one-fourth of all the iron made in the United States. A Farmer’s Luck We were within about a mile of Findlay, O., and the train had just began to slacken speed, when we felt a jar and knew that the loco motive had struck some considera ble object. 'In the next seat ahead was a farmer, and he threw up the sash, shoved out his head, ancf ex claimed: - “By gam! bat I’m in luck!” “Why, they’ve killed a horse!” shouted a man behind us, as he looked ont. - “Yes, and it’s my boss!” added the farmer. •‘But you said you were in luck?” “You bet I am! I’ve been riding up and down this line for five years on a pass they gave me for killing an old cow which wasn’t worth 85. The pass expired yes terday, and now my old hoss, who ain’t worth skinning, gits in the way and is knocked over. Luck!

Legisla tors • should be paid so much per session, or all lost time deducted from their per diem. That would put a stop to the absentee business which does so much to impede legislation. On the same line, the Cuthbert Liberal says: Keep sacred their oaths to sup port the constitution of the state of Georgia, and adopt such legisla tion as will enforce the provisions of that constitution against railroad monopoly; propose an amendment to the constitution, doing away with our homestead and exemption laws, which have been the parents of waiver notes, mortgages, liens, ex orbitant credit prices and ruinous usurious interest charges—this amendment not to be retroactive bat for the future, after its adop tion; provide proper local tribunals to take cognizance of all local mat ter; and do away with local legisla tion by the state legislature; enact law to tax ddgs, not ad volorum, but specific and heavy; improve the public school system and ex tend its benefits specially to those who most need them; elect a United States Senator who is in sympathy with the masses—the farmers—of Georgia and of the whole country; enact a law disfranchising the man who buys the vote or political ‘influence” of another, without the “benefit of clergy” or executive or legislative clemency in his be- ’ alf in the future—a sort of “Medes and Persian’s” law as to his dis franchisement. the human heart what the sun beam is to the earth—the source of gladness.

About eleven of the eighty-eight United States Senators are million aires, Mr. Stanford, of California, leading with’ 850,000,000.

Heed the timely warning, and re gain -health at once by a use of the proper restorative, that great strengthener of the urinary and digestive organs, B. B. B. (Botanic Blood Balm).

My appetite is restored and urinate without pain.” Little Marshall P. Wilder told a Washington Post reporter the fol lowing gem: Finacuue called on Mike Leary’s oldest boy, Tim, one day, and found that broth of a boy pale about the gills, losing flesh,and the picture of despair “Howly Moses, Tim, it’s mur- therin.’ ill ye’re lukin!

I am told that no less than fifty de signs have been sent to th9 com mittee headquarters, and that the letters on that subject indicate that a round hundred other invent ors expect to ask the committee to endorse and take u"p their proj ects. A Chicagoan told me yes terday that their committee had been similarly beseiged, and I pre sume it is the same-in Washington and St. Lonis. When the fair is finally located in New York, as it will be, all these schemes will come floating on here. So far, all the schemes contemplate the erection of a tower at the expense of the management of the fair. The in ventors seem to think they have only to ask for an appropriation of from one to five millions for their special plans, to get it made. W. F. Dennis, a civil engineer, has jnst returned from the isth mus, where tjie French commis sioners are examining DeLessep’s ditch, and deciding whether the French should continue the work on it to completion. “The people of Colon,” said Mr. Dennis, “are naturally much interested in the action of the government at Wash ington on the San Bias affair. As to the f ntnre of the canal, there is only this to be said: The corn- clown is more apt to be endurin. than either the lessons or expe riences of after life. Thus even in the training of the young, the principle of man’s sla very to habit is admitted and rec ognized, although the effort is then made to so shape that inborn proclivity as to unfetter the mind as much as possible from the things incidental to every-day life, and give it freer scope in more impor tant concerns. The natural proclivity to fixed habits and customs is responsible for national traits, local peculiari ties, in fact for all the endless va riety that gives interest to travel and investigation! Bat it is in the study of individual character that the natural weakness becomes most apparent- The man that has spent the greater part of his life in mercan tile pursuits has so completely identified himself with his busi ness that daily attention to it has become an essential to his health and happiness. Although success has probably afforded him ample means wherewith to retire from the cares of active participation in commerce, still the daily routine of his office or counting-house has become so much a part of his ex istence that to drop it ont of his life would be to revolutionize his whole being and probably rob him of the one thing that buoys him up. It is the realization of this nec essary continuance of a daily rou tine that keeps so many in> appa rently laborious and wearing occu pations long after it has become ap parent that, there is no longer nny material necessity for sneb appli cation. The same thing is apparent iu a nies. The paupers and the shift less will not have enterprise suffi cient to 9ome. The well-to-do, in dustrious and energetic will soon be glad to make the change, and once here they will become our natural.allies, and cause, the race problem to sink ont of sight and he forgotten in the rapid advance ment and general prosperity of this rogion. We have outlined these ideas before, and they are beginning to be reproduced and favorably com mented on in the north. The Wash ington City Gavette follows our fine exactly. It says the.best thing for both sections would be the wholesale emigration of the New England people with all their household goods to the south. New England has been transformed from an agricultural to a manu facturing region, and has filled up. with an alien race. The Puritan's are being pushed to the -wall by these aliens with their European Sunday, and their old world tradi tions and customs. In the south these Americans would find themselves surrounded by American neighbors and a com mon interest would make them.pnll together. Our immigrants would soon get rid of any misinformation •or fancy ideas about onr problerrs. and go to work with us to settle them.' Speaking in this strain the Ga zette says: Now let New England rise as one man, give up an inhospitable climate, its sterile soil, -its un friendly environment to the Irish, the Canadians and the Portngesp, who are overrunning that land,and seek happier homes and wider op portunities beneath the bluer skies and balmier breezes, on the fertile” NEW FIRM.

There is no country, like France for starting journals. During 1889 no less than 950 new newspapers were brought ont, of which not one remains in life.
