Our life, oar life is like a narrow raft-
Afloat npon the hungry sea;
' "Hereon is bat a little space,
And all men eager for a place,
Do thrust each other in the sea.
And so our life is wan with fears,
And so the sea is salt with tears,
Ah, well is thee, thou art asleep!

Onr life, our life is a curious play;
Where each man hideth from himself.
“Let us be open as the day,”
One mask does to the other say,
When he would deeper hide himself,
“Let us be open as the day,/
That he may better hide himself.
And so the world goes round and round,
Until our life with rest is crowned.
Ah, well is thee, thou art asleep!
Ah, well is thee, thou art asleep!

Children Cry for Pitcher's Castoria.
july 13th 1861.
As if under some.strange wand,
or suble influence simultaneously
holding over all alike, the lips to
the seven occupants of the old log
seem closed for a moment, both of
expression and'suggestion; or all
seem to sit in silence as a delega
tion or devotees of'Quakerism.
The expectant glance of the one
soldier* to the other, however, does
not fail to plainly show the great
solicitude, or to become an unmis
takable index to the uneven and
flighty misgivings of the mind—
the doubt, the dread, the uncer
tainty ahead.
Does not fail to disclose the
storm within, whose billows lap
around and lash the victim without
mercy, without cessation, without
care; or oblivious to the silent
pleading of the mind for relief be
comes nevertheless impervious and
heartless to the cry for help.
But the old craft,' full of holes,
without supplies, without a rudder,
without a compass, without a pilot,
and with all the buoys removed
from around the harbors every
where, must be set afloat to drift
aimlessly and hopelessly as it were
over a barren and tumultuous sea,
whose answer to the cry of dis
tress could only be another and
another pitiless wave.
Mast be set afloat somehow and'
somewhere. In some direction
toward a friendly, but unknown
harbor, or to be swamped with all
on board and lost forever.
Must be set afloat to be patched
or rebuilt and provisioned as she
sails; to be manned in hunger, in
thirst, trepidation nnd doubt, or
held to its place and proper course
by a courage which only despera
tion can supply.
But the pilot, the pilot!
Where is our pilot to guide the
frail bark and direct the strokes
of the weary and untrained oars
men?
Eye meets eye in the mind dis
cussion of the question, pnly to
turn to, the other to receive an an
swer of silence, or a wistful glance
of “why don’t yon suggest some
way out of this dilerna?”
But it is a long lane that has no
turn, and a strange set of soldiers
that can long be held under the
ban of melancholy, and deprived
of its esprit de corps under the se
verest circumstances.
My diary says: “The silence is
now first broken by Clint Duncan,
sitting on the right hand end of
the log, (now with his head hung
down as if in a brown study) who
straightening up and clearing his
throat with the assumed dignity of
a ragamuffin, or as if ready to offer
some feasible expedient, says:
‘Well boys, (listen) I have a se
vere pain in my stomach.’ As. ap
parently so much ielieved at the
very fine suggestion he had
brought forth, and the cat of his
sneaking eyes, it was hard to tell
whether he was really suffering, or
had some other object in view.
“Jim Bice, sitting next to- him,
without raising his head to ob
serve the countenances Of the oth
ers, or failing to see the half smile
on the faces of those toward left
of log, says: ‘Yes, and I have not
only a pain in ' my stomach, but
both in my sid'e and back—besides
I feel as weak as water all over.’
This second remark, with such in
nocent purport brought* forth a
snigger, justas Zeke , Ezell, with
his face buried between his hands,
began to say: ‘Well Clint and Jim,
I am worse off than’—who at this
moment looking iip and to his left
caught the other four laughing
outright iu his face. About this
time Clint nnd-Jim canghl on and
remarked: ‘We are not fishing for
sympathy, and can’t really see.anv
fun In you fellows making a set of
asses of yourselves in trying to
ridicule us.’
‘Zeke was too mnch dejected to
make a rejoinder, and again plac
ing his elbows upon his knees and
his head between his hands, fully
represented in appearance, a hack
ed old rooster, whose wings half
raised, with feathers up, seemed to
say iu so many words: ‘I have
enough and am in no frame of
mind to jest over do serious a mat
ter.’
‘Glint, however, had lost neither
plack nor combativeness, or stimu
lated by the fun pokad at the
three, now broke the 'silence again
with indeed a suggestion that
canght the ear and attention of the
entire log from right to left,
follows:
This is a matter of self preser
vation, a matter of starvation per
haps for the whole, while seven
may work out their own destiny
alone, and I therefore move that
we leave the battalion and take
our chances.’
“Zeke now pricks np his ears and
tha other five seconded the motion
almost in one voice.
Every man seemed to have
been discussing the same thing in
his own mind, bnt perhaps pre
ferred one of the end men to make
the suggestion-.-
“But Jim Bice, or some one else
now says': ‘But the commander of
the battalion will put us under ar
rest if we attempt to leave the bat
talion.’ But says another: ‘The
forest is very thick, and just but
yonder, (pointing to the front) the
laurel undergrowth is so dense
that we can’t be seen if once be
yond that clump, and I therefore
move that wo break up from the
old Jog one by one and carelessly
saunter around, and finally into
the clump of bushes designated.’
“This motion is again carried
without a dissenting voice, and
Zeke suddenly seems to become
himself again—ready to fight or
rnn as the case may.
Now one, and then another be
gins to saunter about and around
this way and the other, and finally
out of sight without attracting at
tention from the battalion, till the
old log holds not a single soldier,
or is left' as a crumbling land
mark to the first earnest, but whis
pering harrangue between the sev
en of scouts and rear guardsmen.
The plan and its execution now
fully consummated, we find the
point agreed npon aud designated
from the old log almost as dark as
night and drear as death itself,.or
dell that naught else bat despair
as a companion.
“Bat the seven soldiers imme
diately huddle together, or squat
around in a circle for a solemn
conclave or last council of war; to
agree under oath of honor and
manhood to move only in concert of
action, or concurrent in all things,
live or die as one man. Each hand
is raised above the - head as the
oath is registered that we will fight
three times our number, or less,
hand to hand or otherwise, bnt to
the -greater number will use the
Fabian policy to the best accout,
or indeed, in the last extremity
show them the bottoms of our feet
—withdraw in regular, but rapid
order.
“This oath is backed by a mus
ket and some thirty rounds of car
tridges, a six-shooter and an im
mense bowie knife to each and ev
ery soldier in the council. So far,
so good.
‘But now the first and. most im
portant question presents itself
Where are we, and where is Cheat
river? Where or in what direc
tion is that natural laud mark that
must become our guide and
direction out of the enemylg.coun
try back to succor aud safety? No
one can answer this question ex
cept by the bent of his own mind
conceived and fixed in confusion
and uncertainty,yet the first next to
be considered and settled between
seven ball-headed and determined
soldiers. Each knows as much as
the other and ready to swear he
was right, though on a mere basis
of belief and uncertainty..
In the confusion of battle, wind
and rain, at and near the ford—the
pusbirfgTietween -of McClellan’s
army and onr consequent: retreat
and intense watching for the ene
my, as we edged up the -mountain;
or again in onr meanderings to
si i p t h e battalion to reach our pres
ent position, all had lost the cor-
reel bearing or points of the com
pass; and while it was known-that
Cheat river lay ; not far away, no
one had the remotest correct idea
of its direction. except,-as already
developed that it lay in seven .dif
ferent directions according to the
wild conceptions of the seven ' ob
stinate soldiers. Each differed with
the other and seemed unintention
ally to aspire to a leadership that
had no following. Each realized and
recognized the fact that we were
burning daylight which should be
utilized for all it was worth—that
night, now mid evening, coaid not
stay the march, whom to overtake
would hold ns still captives in
hanger and disappointment in the
midst of the fowling wolves
and hooting old owls, and
with no poultices to apply to
Clint and Jim. And yet with all
this in view the discnssion with
signs of temper, continued to warm
ap as the lash fell one upon the
other vainly and persistently at
tempting to .whip each other into
line. Each had a better opinion
of his own judgement than that of
the other fellow, or was an willing
to follow in a direction he had
sworn time and again to himself,
was wrong, and that led further
and farther into the enemy’s coun
try and to starvation. All were
well agreed that if we coaid again
reach Cheat river it would be a
safe guide, as npor down, (as the
case might be) would lead in the
direction of Staunton, some hun
dred or two miles away. Bnt how
to harmonize, how to find the riv
er, was the mooted question. Each
soldier seemed as determined that
he was right and all the balance
wroDg, as the whole were deter
mined they would neither starve
nor surrender v/hile there was life
and strength left to drag through
the mountains. But the question
of direction, or the want of harmo
nious adjustment of honest differ
ences, although one subdued speech
and argument after another had
been made with the most dogged
persistence and energy, still stood
as it started, confounded and un
settled—still to us a ground hog
or gopher case.

The “Cracker” Girl.
Col. “Arp,” of Georgia, talking
to a Kansas City Star interviewer
about the “Georgia Cracker,” said:
“A gentleman recently told me' of
an experience of his trip among
mountaineers. My friend was an
unusually handsome man, and the
daughters took a great liking to
him. The girls flew around and
got up the best supper the house
afforded, which was poor enough
at that. After we had seated one
of the girls turned to my compan
ion and said:
“Stranger, will you have your
eggs one-eyed or blind?”
“It took him some time to think
oat what Was meant, but he finally
managed to make ont that the girl
meant done on one side or turned
over: “I’ll take mine blind,’ he
answered.
“Well, do yon want ’em loose or
tight in the middle?”
“Again he was confused, but af
ter another mental effort he sur
mised that the girl meant done
through, soft or hard.”
Twenty one years ago Jeff Davis
wrote to his wife' from Fortress
Monroe, ns follows: “It is true
that my strength has failed me,
and the loss of sleep has created a
morbid excitability, but an unseen
hand has sustained me, and a peace
the world could not give and has
not been . able to destroy, will, I
trust, uphold me to meet with res
ignation whatever may befall me.
If one is to^mswer for all, upon
me it most naturally and properly
falls. If I alona coaid bear nil the
suffering of the country, and re
lieve it from farther calamity, I
trust onr Heavenly Father would
give me -strength to be- a willing
sacrifice.” The South' is attempt-
ing_to raise enough money to erect
a monument to the memory of this
honored man, and he who wrote
such patriotic words as the above
fully deserves due. g
Gettysburg and Waterloo Compared. Government Control of Railroads.
The people of Georgia are tak
ing more interest in educational
matters than ever before. That
they are. doing so is a sure sign
that they are advancing in every
thing that makes a state great and'
prosperous. The commencement
season is-over, and the press of the
state hasrnoticed very fully the ex
ercises at the different colleges and
seminaries. And Georgia has rea
son to be proud of her higher edu
cational institutions. They com
pare favorably with those of any
other state r both in number and
educational advantages. Their
graduates are as well equipped for
studying, any one of the learned
professions or for entering upon
the duties of life as those of more
pretentions institutions of some of
the other states. There is no rea
son why the girls and boyB of Geor
gia should be sent to northern ed
ucational institutions. They can
find in their own state schools that
offer them all the advantages that
can be obtained elsewhere.
And the increased interest that
being taken in the common
schools is very gratifying. At Tif-
ton, Berrien county, Thursday,
(June 18th)3,000 people who were
assembled to witness the laying of
the coruer-stone of the Tifton In
stitute, listened with profound in
terest to Gov. Northen and Super
intendent of Education Bradwell
point ont the needs of the common
school system and the benefits
which flow from education.
The people cannot hear too much
about the importance of education,
and they are willing to listen. The.
governor and school commissioner
can render them no better service
than to strengthen the growing de
sire for a better system of common
schools.
This awakening interest in com
mon schools is shown in the grad
ually increasing appropriations for
common school purposes. But
the appropriations are not yet any
where near as large as they should
be. Better school houses and a
higher grade of teachers are greats
ly needed. Aud it is important
that the schools should be kept
open nine mouths of the year. To
accomplish these reforms money is
required, and a great deal of it.
The people must be taugnt that
they cannot put their money to a
better use than that of building up
the common school system. They
must invite taxation for that pur
pose. J£ they give their children
a good common school education
they will give them something thai
will be of more benefit to them
than the money they may leave
them, because a good education is
something that cannot be lost, and
is always available in earning a
living. —;
.And just in proportion as the
common schools arerimproved will
the state prosper. A good class of
immigrants will seek homes where
there are churches nnd first-class
schools, which are the signs of an
advanced civilization, and which
are recognized to be such by all.
At Gettysburg, writes Theodore j
Roosevelt in the Century, there J
Monroe Advertiser.
Whenever railroads or other sim-
were present in action 80,000 to
86,000 Union troops, and of the
Confederates abont 65,000. At
Waterloo there were 120,000 sol
diers of the Allies under Tyelling-
ton and Blucher,and 72,000 French
under Napoleon - r or there were
abont 150,000 combatants at Get
tysburg, and about 180,000 at Wa
terloo. In each case the weaker
army made the attack and was de
feated. Lee did not have to face
such heavy odds as Napoleon; but;
whereas Napoleon’s defeat was a
root in which he lost all his gnns
and saw his soldiers become a dis
organized rabble, Lee drew off his
army in good order, his cannon un
captured and the morale of his
formidable soldiers unshaken. The
defeated Confederates lost in kill
ed and wonnded 15,530, and in
captured 7,467,some of whom were
likewise wonnded, or 23,000 in all;
the defeated French lost from 25,-
000 to 30,000—probably nearer the
latter number. The Confederates
thus lost in killed and wonnded at
least twenty-five per cent of their
force, and yet they preseryed their
artillery and their organization;
while the French suffered an even
heavier proportional loss and were
turned into a fleeing mob.
At Gettysburg the Northerners
lost'17,555 killed and wounded,aud
5,435 missing; in other words they
suffered an actually .greater loss
than the much larger army of
Wellington and Blucher, relative
ly; it was half as great again, be
ing something like twenty-two per
cent in killed and wonnded alone.
parative obstinacy of the" fighting.
In making any comparison be
tween the two battles, it must, of
couse, be remembered that one oc
cupied but a single day -and the
other very nearly three; and it is
hard to compare the strain of a
long and very bloody, with that
caused by a short, and only less
bloody, battle.
Gettysburg consisted of a series
of more or less completely isolated
conflicts; but, owing to the loose
way in- which the armies marched
into action, many of the troops
thaUdid the.heaviest fighti'ug were
engaged but a portion of the time.
The Second and Third Corps were
probably not heavily engaged for
a very much longer period than
than the British regiments at Wa
terloo.
Both were soldiers’-, rather than
generals’- battles. Both were waged
with extraordinary courage and
obstinacy, and at a fearful cost of
life. Waterloo was settled by a
single desperate and exhausting
straggle; Gettysbarg took longer,
was less decisive, and was relative
ly much more bloody. According
to Wellington, the chief feature of
Waterloo was the “hard ponnd-
ing;”and at Gettysbarg,the pound
ing—or, as Grant termed it, the
‘hammering,”—was even harder.
ilar corporations are operated in
such manner as to oppress people
antt-cripple them in the returns of
their labor, then it is right for the
government; to step in and, if pos
sible, by equitable and just means,
protect the people against such op
pression where real oppression ex
ists. Bnt the view, that the gov
ernment should, in the event of
certain contingencies, take abso
lute control, and, if yoti please,
possession of all railroads and sim
ilar corporations,and operate them,
stiikes us as an extreme one, and
taken by the advocates of such
measure without counting the cost.
There are but two methods by
which the government can get pos
session of these vast moneyed in
terests. One method is—to confis
cate them, the other to buy them.
Of course there can be found no
advocates for confiscation. And to
bay them would cost somebody
’something.
This fact was very strongly
brougkfomt by Senator Carlisle a
few days ago, when interviewed by-
a delegation of third party men,
while discussing this very point.
When Mr. Carlisle suggested that
they would have to confiscate or
buy the railroads, etc., they readi
ly and like honest men repudiated
the idea of confiscation. Mr. Car
lisle’s reply was:
“Then, yon mast bay them; and
to buy them yon mast pay for
them, and to. pay for them yon
mnst tax yourselves. Have yon -
any idea how much it would cost?
Our government debt at the close
This gives some idea of the oom--^f-the .war was more than $2,000,-
000,000, and we have been almost
thirty years in paying half, of it.
The railroads, telegraphs, tele
phone lines and steamboats ip the
country represent abont $14,000,-
000,000 invested capital. Four
thousand million is bonded indebt
edness, which must be paid. Are
you ready to tax yourselves to raise”"
this money? Then, after you have
got the property are you ready to
tax yourselves to operate it,for the
.government never yet succeeded in
doing business at a profit? Con
sider another effect. Such a plan
would add, perhaps, 1,000,000 men
-ind women to the roll of govern
ment employes. How would you
ever succeed in turning out of pow
er ah administration with such re
sources at its command? The more
corrupt it was the more difficult it
would be to displace it.”
The advocates of government
ownership of railroads, transporta
tion lines, &c., will do well to con
sider, and consider well, these sug
gestions of Senator Carlisle, who
is an authority on matters of gov
ernment. This is a great big sub
ject that requires grasp of intellect
to compass, and patient and care
ful study and thought to handle -
wisely.
