The Voting VlerVhauls*
Two country lads came at on early
liour to a market town, and arranging
t heir little stands sat down to wait for
Customers. Due was furnished with
lints and vegetables of the bov,s own
cultivation, and the other supplied with
lobsters and fish. Tlie market hours
pass along, and each little merchant saw
with pleasure bis stores steadily decrease
iug, and an equivalent in silvei shining
in his little money cup. The last melon
lay on Harry’s stand, when a gentleman
Came by, and placing his had upon it,
said—
“ What a fine large melon! What do
You ask for it, my boy?”
“The melon is the last Lhave sii; and
though tt looks very fair, there is an un
pouud spot in it," sai l the boy . turning
it over.
“So there is," said the man; “I think
J will not take it. Hut,” lie added, look
ing into the hoy’s line open countenance
is it very business-like to point out tile
defects (if your Tit it to the customers?’
“tt is better than being dishonest,”
said the boy, modestly.
“Von nro light little fellow; always
remember that principle, and you will
find favor with Clod and man also. I
shall remember your little stand in the
future.”
“Are those lobsters fresh!" lie contin
ued, turning to Bon Williams.
“\es, sir. fresh this morning: I
caught them myself,” was the reply, and
a purchase being made, the gentleman
went away.
“Harry, what a fool you weic to show
the gentleman that spot in the mcl&n.
Now you can take it home for your
pains, or throw it away. How much
wisor is he about those lobsters I caught
yesterday? Sold them for the same price
I did the fresh ones. He would never
have looked at the melon until he had
gono away.”
“Ben, I would not tell a lie, or act
one either, for twice what l have earned
this morning. Besides, I shall be better
off in the end; for I have gained a cus
tomer. and you have lost one.”
A man who, by lying and cheating,
drives away one customer a day, will in
a little while have very few left, and
they will soon find him out and leave
him.

As frequent inquiries are made alout
the soil, climate and society of our coun
ty by Northern people herewith give
an extract from a letter written Oy a
New York gentleman, who now lives in
this county, to tlie Commissioner of air
lieulttire of the State, as appears in his,
“Georgia from an immigrant stand
point coming as it does, from a gentle
man wheir mind was poisoned by the
Northern press, prior to his coming
among us, certainly can't hut help to re
pair the the vile slander that is attempted
to he cast upon the the South, by the
Rc?mlican people North. Here what lie
says, in regard to the soil, climate and
people of this county.
“New York is mv native State. 1 am
a farmer, and settled her in 1 S7O. The
inducements to immigration are manv. It
is an excellent grazing county, with plen
ty of cheap uncultivated lands suffi
cient for several large colonies.
The climate is delightful, and as
healthy as tho high lands of New York
U’he soil is a sandy loam, producing
well, with moderate fertilising, all that
Ohio produce#, and in addition cotton*
There is plenty of good society, and
life and property are as reaon in any of
the Northern State even to Northern
men. 1 have received as kind treatment
from the native citizen, as J everieceived
n any northern settlement, and 1 btdive
llieis Mould receive the same.
While the soil is hot so rich as in
matv vof the nothern states, tin* differ

and the priCv ot laud is not moi J e than
half so great.

SyMI’ATHY, &C.
At the last meeting of our sabbath
school the death of Bro. Manors Morgan
was announced, and thereupon the fol
lowing were appointed a committee to
prepare a memorial of his life and char
acter: Rev. C. H. McTeei, 11. L. W.
Allison and John P. Jacoway. And
now having discharged that duty, they
present the following report.
Another oticof oursahbath school teach
ers is dead. From this earthly trihnmil
one more member of our sabbath school
has gone down to the dismal confines of
the narrow house and from meeting in
Sabbath School here he has gone to meet
in that everlasting SabbathSehool above.
Bro. Morgan, died on the morning of
the Pith of August, the sad news like an
electric current was conveyed from
mouth to mouth through out the sur
rounding country that he was dead. All
where shocked, and grieved at the sud
den announcement; of only a short time
before he occupied his usual seat in the
choir at Sabbath School. Ail tha f
friends, and family and medical skill
could do was done for his releif, but his
appointed time had come. The silvery
chord was breaking, and like an uncon
scious infant in its cradle, the strong man
was laid upon his bed for his last sleep.
Late in the evening of that day, l
saw him for the last time; then uncon
scious, spcachless and sleeping prfoun
dly; and thus in the midst of family and
friends and in the shadow and stillness
of tlie mi Inight hour he quitely, peace- {
fully passed away. To the call of his
name as teacher in our Saddali School!
he will answer no more. Between these j
walls we have long been accustomed to 1
O
see him and to hear his voice; we miss
him in lii.s accustomed place. There is
a vacant seat. The tokens are so numer
ous, :,hc signs around us are so real, that
we are forced to the solemn realigation
of the announcement that lie is dead.
And on the 1 -Itli of August he was
v?
hurried out of our sight. The greif wafy
universal alI classes participated in it the
high and the >w, the rich and the poor
11 >iiTTTTtttio\. andassciation religious
and social. I srH that no citizen of
Dade County has ever gone down to his
grave so siucerily heaitlv and universal
ly honored respected and belo\%d as was
Mr. Morgan, What manner of man
was lie thus to have won i\m esteem and
to have entwined liimseW^m round the af
fection of all classes of men? II is reptna
tion among men was all oflrisAwn mak
ing. lie relied not upon anlancxstial
fame to elevate himself abeve ordinal v
mortals. He never resorted to any trick
or artifice or disguise to win his way to
the love and administration of his fellow
men in all his wav he was ever simple,
earnest, truthful! and straightforward,
iml at the same time manlv courteous
and dignified. At the time of his death
he was Sixty Six years old.
He has been a member of our Sabbath
School for along t ime even beyond my
recollection. And he was even ready to
advocate her right and defend her hon
ors, and to pledge his fortune or peril his
life in its support; and atone time saved
it from division and ruin.
A monument would yon erect to his
great and good name. Marble is not
white enough. Let the sterling traits ol
his character ns stamped upon tin 1 mem
ory o! bis people, stand as hi* monument .
'Truth, integrity courage unimpeacha
ble veracity, honor and honest v untor
nislied; all these were eminently his and
these will endure forever, and let them
stand as an impelishahlc monument to
the memory ol tin honest man.
Resolutions.
Resolved, That in the death of Mr.
Morgan, the Sabbath School has sustain
ed a great and deeply felt loss.
Resolved, That the members of this
Sabbath School reeureing to his life of
usefulness as a Snpt teacher and lenth
ened association with him as a hroalier,
will cherish with heart-warm feelimrs
the rcmemboranco ct his social virtu res
and his generous example.
Resolve: I hat we deeply sympathize
with his family in this sad bereavment,
and tcndei them our condolence under its
trying ordeal.
Resolve: I hat the Uadis ( ’oitxty
Gazette, and the Sabbath School Visi
tor he requested to publish the above
proceedings.

A school or garden, or hoop or swing,

4. Instead nf nouns the jiroonm.s stand

As men and. woman, with or whether.
8. The preposition stand before,
A noun, as in or through a door.
9. The interjection show., surprise,
As tdi ! how pretty —all! how wise.

Hair Vigor,
For restoring Gray Hair to
its natural Vitality and Color.
with the gloss and freshness of youth.
Thin hair is thickened, falling hair
checked, and baldness often, though
not always, cured by its use. Noth
ing can restore the hair where the
follicles are destroyed, or the glands
atrophied and decayed. Hut such as
remain can he saved for usefulness
by this application. Instead of foul
ing the hair with a pasty sediment, it
will keep it clean and vigorous. Its
occasional use will prevent the hair
from turning gray or falling off, and
consequently prevent baldness. Free
from those deleterious substances
which make some preparations dan
gerous, and injurious to the hair, the
Vigor can only benefit but not harm
\t. If wanted merely for a
HAIR DRESSING,
nothing else can be found so desir
able. Containing neither oil nor
dye, it does not soil white cambric,
and yet lasts long on the hair, giving
it a rich, glossy lustre and a grateful
perfume.
