SALCTATOKY.
With this issue of the News-
Herald, we enter the profession of
Journalism. Neither of us has had
but little experience in the news
paper work, yet we trust that the
result which usually follows inex-»
perience will more than counter
balance by an extra amount of en
ergy in our part, and that the
News-Herald .will continue to
merit the patronage and friendship
of the people of Gwinnett county.
Beliering that the newspaper is
the foundation of all practical
publicity, and that the chief object
of a county newspaper is to pub
lish the news, we intend to give to
the people from week to week the
county news.
We are interested in every thing
that tends to the upbuilding of
Gwinnett county, and every farm
er, merchant, teacher, lawyer, doc
tor, preacher and officer shall have
fair treatment at our hands; aud
we will publish gratuitously the
meetings of any Masonic Lodge,
Odd Fellows, church, sunday
school or literary school.
The policy of the paper will con
tinue to be Democratic, yet we
shall treat all other political par
ties fairly. We are not politicians.
We do not propose to use our
columns in abusing or allowing
others to abuse anyone, and if any
person wish to publish anything
detrimental to the character of
another, it will appear as acommu
nication, and at the same rate of
cost as advertisements.
The paper will continue to be
conducted on a cash basis. We
are anxious to have a larger list of
subscribers; but, at the same time,
we can’t afford to run a credit bus
iness to reach that end. Look on
the label of your paper and see
how your subscription stands. If
you find that you are in arrears,
please forward payment, or settle
your account when you come to
town. Do Dot ask us for credit.
We both are GwiDDett county
men, and are connecting ourselves
with a Gwinnett county news
paper, published at the county
site, therefore we are assured that
every patriotic citizen of this
county will feel personally inter*
ested in our success.

MOLOKOBH A TEACHER
It is with regret that I quit
teaching school, which profession
I have followed assiduously since
I was eighteen years, having been
engaged in teaching for about
twelve years.
I think that I am not flattering
myself when I say that I have
been a successful teacher; since
for the last seven years, five years
at Auburn, Georgia, and two years
here, I have been at the head of
the largest school in this county.
It is not to be inferred that be
cause I quit teaching, I am losing
interest in the cause of education,
and I trust that the stand that I
shall take as one of the editors of
the News-Herald, will he sufficient
proof that I have lost uone of my
enthusiasm for education.
Now that I am no longer a
teacher and in no pecuniary way
connected with schools, whatever
I say cannot be judged as coming
from selfish motives.
I believe in the education of the
entire human family regardless of
race of color. Man could never
raise his head, walk one step, nor
utter one word, were ho not taught,
and for a man to be consistent in
opposing education, he ought to
make a hermit of himself, thereby
being the better enable to be kept
from being taught any thing by
his fellow beings; for that iB the
end to which such reasoning leads
if cariied to its last analysis.
I a:n cognizant of the fact that
many men claim that the educa
tion of the negro is doiug him
harm ; yet, I am not prepared to
accent such argument, but rather
think that it is the lack of
proper training the nogro that is
doing the negro race so much
harm.
Education is the cultivation of
the physical, mental and moral
powers of man, which so dsici
plines the body and mind as to
fit him for duty and happines-, as
most thoroughly qualifies him for
the station to which which he is
destined to fill and the sphere in
which he is destined to move. A
man thus educated will not be
come worse, but better The ne
groes have had their minds train
ed, but have neglected to train
their hearts and hands, and this
is the reason we find the increase
of crime among the educated ne
groes.
Bob. Ingersoll w as a giant in the
intellectual world, but his heart
was neglected, and the world would
be better off, had he never come
into it.
Jefferies affords a good example
of what the highest education of
| body mesas, yet what good is he
doing the world?
Gladstone, one of the greatest
men of his day, was educated in
; hand, heart and mind.
An education is a valuable ac
complishment for any man, and
all that are engaged in educating
the rising generation are engaged
in a noble calling. May God’s
richest blessings rest upon all
teachers.

A bill putting a tax on dogs has
already passed the house of repre
sentatives, and is now before the
senate. The bill provides for a
collection of $1 tax on each male,
and $1.50 on each female dog, and
for the killing of all dogs in de
fault of the payment of tax. The
bailiffs are to kill all dogs in de
fault of tax in their Militia dis
tricts, and receive twenty-five
cents for each dog killed. Collars
are to be furnished to each dog
whose tax is paid by the Ordinary.
For quite a number of years,
bills of this kind have been intro
duced, but for some unexplained
reason, they have never become
law. However it is highly prob
able that this bill will become a
law, for its author, Hon. W. \V.
Dews of Randolph County, is de
termined to push the bill to suc
cess.
THU ASTRONOMERS DIDN'T MISS IT.
Altongh there was no great me
teoric shower in America, yet in
other parts of the world the
Leonids display caused great pan
ics. In some parts of Europe it
was believed that the end of the
world had come. In Russia the
churches were open all night, and
thousands of people spent the
night in open air fearing some
great catastrophe. In Berlin
there was a brilliant display be
tween 2 o’clock and 5 o’clock in
the morning.
Chancellor Hill of the Univer
sity of Georgia made an address
before the Legislature on last
Thursday. He asked for the res
toration of $22,500 which the gen
eral assembly has heretofore ap
propriated. He contended that
it was impossible to put Georgia
in the contest with the multi-mil
lionaire institutions of the coun
try, but that it was possible to re
store the high culture and intel
ligence for which the state was fa
mous before the war.

Consumption
Do not think for a tingle
moment that consumption will
•ver strike you a sudden blow.
It doea not come that way.
It creeps jts way along.
First, you think it is a little
cold; nothing but a little hack
ing cough; then a little loss in
weight: thyi a harder cough;
then toe fever and the night
sweats.
Tbe suddenness comes when
you have a hemorrhage.
Better stop the disease while
it is yet creeping.
You can do it with
Ayer’s
Cherry
Peelorai
You first notice that you
cough less. The pressure on
the cheat is lifted. That feeling
of suffocation is removed. A
cure is hastened by placing one of

The way women trifle with health
shows a degree of indifference that is
past understanding. Happiness and use
fulness depend on physical health; so
does a good disposition. Disease makes
women nervous, irritable and snap
pish. The very effort of ailing women
to be good-natured makes them ner
vous. Write to Mrs. Pinkham, she will
help you to health and happiness.
It costs nothing to get Mrs. Pinkham’s
advice. Her address is Lynn, Mass.
