All funeral, obituary, and marriage no tices must be paid for at regular rates. Resolutions of Granges and other bodies, ordorod published, will bo charged for. Anonymous communications iuvariably ignored. Letters requiring answor should con tain stamps for rotnrn postage. HEATH* AND MARHIAUE*. We sympathize with those whose homes are visited by death, and whose loved ones are carriod off, and we would gladly do all in onr power to lighten the sky for those left behind ; yet wo uovor feel tho sorrows of another as we do our own, and we cannot expect the world to bo cast down at our uiliiotion, for if such were the oaae, it would be a very gloomy world indeed. Neither can we rejoice as do those for whom the marriage bells are riuging, or into whose homes a little stranger comes—the pledgo of wedded life. Wo are led into these rellectiuns by the fact that we daily receive letters from sorrowing friends asking us to publish en closed obituary notices, in order to ploaso tho relatives of the doud; or to insert marriago notices and jingling rhymes, to add to tho joy of tho young couplo made happy. We are forced to decline to insert such muterial unless it is paid for. A newspuporshould contain matters that in terest all its readers, not the fow, and if wo once began gratuitous marriago and obituary notices, our columns would ono- half be draped in mourning, and tho mar riago notices would seem the mockery of joy. But tho great reason is, that our rovenuo is derived from subscription and advertising ; every line in our paper costs ns cash, aud if we ouoo opened tho door to gratuitous notices our career would bo very short. Wo havo too amuy Ireo mar riage notices now. We iliul it up-hill work enough, as it is, to raiso live or six hundred dollars a week to meet our abso lute obligations, and as business men we would be foolish to increase our expense at the sacrifice of our iucomo. Wo hope our friends who do not soe their notices or rosolutious appearing heroafter will know that tho reason is, their not being accompanied by tha^ thing so nocessnry to successful business aud an upright, God fearing lifo—Cash. The horse distemper in some of the stablos in Now YorkUity appours to in crease in viruleuce. Thirty fatal cohos in one large stable are reported. Wk thought it was spring yesterday, but this morning's advertising columns show our merchants and ourselves are deop in the winter of n mutual discon tent. Atlanta justly complains that our most lawless citizens make her stroots tho scone of their .outrages. The fact of it is, when they reach a certain stage of sin and HhauiCj society forcos them to leave. Wo have another batch fully ripo for ilight, and their going would rejoioo many a heart. proposal of tho Central Railroad, both of | Freni ths Opelika OUmer. which are considered damaging to the Mr. Editor:—Having juat read the prospects of the bill. The New York ! ‘f.ZISLSiK stockholders, who are said to hold a con trolling interest, telegraphed that the bill Gen. James B. Strkdman (Democrat), who will bo roiuemberod as the Federal Goueral in chief command in Goorgia immediately after tho downftdl of the Confederacy, was on Thursday of last week elootod a delegate to the Ohio Con stitutional Convention, from Lucas coun ty, to succeed Judge Waite, recently ap pointed Chief Justice of the United States, lie beat William Baker (Republican) by a small majority. Gou. Steadman is highly csteemod nt the South for his justice and liborality after the war had closed. Tua farthest point south at which the “women’s war on liquor'’ is in full blast, so far os wo havo loarnod from our ex changes, it Greenville, Tonn., where they havo been operating nearly two weeks. There are three liquor saloons in tho place, aud none of them had yield ed up to the close of last wouk, but many men had stopped patrouiziug them, ami a majority of tho voters of tho town had aigued a temperance pledge. An organization has boon formed Chattanooga, and has probably com* mouced operations by this timo. 1*0011 NOI TII CAROLINA ! Tho Tax Payers Couveutiou of South Caroliun, which mot at Columbia on Thursday, adopted a plan for tl o organi zation of a Bureau of Immigration, with a commissioner iu each county. It also adopted an appeal to Cougross for relief from aud protection aguinst tho present plundering State Govermout. It culled atteutiou to tho fact that during tho seven years of the “reconstructed” gov ernment, a majority of the members of the Legislature havo owned uo property whatevor; and the balauco of them but very little ; that tboy have enormously in creased tho expenses of the government, and greatly increased tho taxes, with tho avowed design and tho effect, of confis cating tho lands of the property holders); and that “tho unprecedented spectacle is exhibited of a State in which tho govern ment iB arrayed against the property of the citizens.*' We will more particularly notice this extraordinary appeal heroafter. objectionable to them, that it would not secure tho extension of the road, and in their opinion would not proteot the in terest of tho State. They askod the Gover nor to veto it. Tho Central Railroad and Banking Company offers, in effect, to make tho Atlantio division of tho Central Railroad (Macon A Western) a trank lino so far as the Central aud Macon A Bruns wick roads wore concerned; that is to say, “the Central Railroad and Banking Company will enter into an agreement or contract to permit the Macon A Bruns wick Railroad to issue through tickets and through bills of lading from and to Atlan ta and tho seubourd at the same rates charged by tho Control Railroad; such rates to bo agreed upon by tho two com panies, and the latter company to claim ly tho pro rata between Macon and At lanta, as heretofore allowed, and to trans port tho cars of the Macon A Brunswick Railroad to and from Atlunta and Macon, to be loadod aud unloaded at tho former place in tho same manner as the Central ltuilruiad does with its own cars for its own through business.” It is believed that thoso communica tions will prevent the passage of the bill with any State uid or relinquishment. DON’T RELY ON IT. Ho many roports havo boon made of the doLuriuiuution of furmers in various lo calities to plant more corn and less cotton thin year, that there is reason to fear they will oucourugo others to pursue tho oppo site course. Many may argue with them selves—as they havo argued before— Well, us so mauy are going to curtail their cotton crops, and the aggrogato will probably be a small ono aud bring a good price, now is my timo to make money by pluuling largely of cotton and but littlo corn.” This policy may be artfully con ceived, but it won’t work satisfactorily this your, any moro than it has worked profitably in former yours. There are too mauy Ihinkitig of the sumo stratagem. Tho reform that is to chango onr nou-remu- norutivc farming economy into n profit able and puying ono must bo obtained by a general movement, ur.d it must be one that has in itself tho remedial and recu perative properties needed. It must bo uo incidental or individual Bido policy,pur sued in opposition to tho generul system. If the plantation economy of the South is to find its relief in more diversified production, it is the policy, and not tho exceptions to its obsorvnuco, that must work tho chango. Already wo havo advicos that tho poo- plo of tho up-country, iu which extensive cotton planting is a now business, aud in which tho people last year rained aplenty of provisions as well as cotton, arc prepar ing to plunt moro cotton this year than last. Tho Ringgold Courier says that this is the ouso in tho portion of Goorgia near tho Teunessoe lino— that “tho remarkable huccokh of the experiments in tho cultivation of cotton in this section during the last hoahou will induce its cultivation on a moro extended scale during the next soason.” Tho same rotnurk is uo doubt true of North Goorgia generally, and for tho very portinout roa- hou that the faruiors of that region, though they largely increased their cotton production last year, still made noarly enough corn, wheat, moat, Ao., and enu thoroforo afford to plant much ootton this year. They havo not yot generally oomo down to tho lien system, with its obliga tions and embarrassments. The extent of tho culture of cottou in North Goorgia last your, is shown by tho fact that Atlan ta has already warehoused ovor 50,000 bales, and Rome und Athous havo largely increased their receipts. ll will not do, therefore, for planters in “the bell” to roly upou assurances that tho crop of this jear is to bo a light ouo because they hoar so much talk of a do- termination to put in moro corn, and ro- duco tho arou devoted tooottou. Tho true rolianco is for each man to so order and rognlato his own planting economy as to make his own farm self-sustaining, and then tho success of his year's operations will not depend upon what others may or may not do. IMPORTANT TO NOI’TUERN RAIL ROADS. Special to tho Kmquiukb and Sc.n.J The House Judiciary Commitroo has re ported au important bill, authorizing tho accounts of the Government with certain Southern railroud companies to be re opened, and a new settlement made by tho Secretary of War, with the advico of tho Attorney General. Tho Government has a heavy claim against thoso roads for rolling stock furnished them at tho close of tho war, which, it is said, tho compa niea manifest no desire to pay, alleging that tho demands agaiust thorn aro too largo. At tho timo tho sottlomeuts were made, tho companies seem to havo had very littlo voico in tho matter, and to havo been forced to take the property ut whatever valuation tho offioora of the Government put upon it. Tho purpose of this bill is to reach an equitable sottle- meut. Cuattahoocheh. by Major A. R. Calhoun, au irroaistible impulse urges us to say something in re gard to it; not that wo moan to criticise it, by no maoner of means. The bare idea of u woman criticizing the speech of a man, and that man the talented gentle man in question, ia absolutely absurd. The address was most excellent, aud wa heartily endorse the timely and ssnuible advice tendered to the farmers. Doubt less the people of this section deeply ap preciate the feelings of kindness and friendship evinced by Major Calhoun in casting his lot with us in our time of dis tress, aud coming to live with us amid our poverty and ruin, and we gladly wel come him to a home in our sunny land and wish him abundant success. But to tho point. Our attention was specially nttrocted to his allusion to the dress of Southern girla during the war, and ho wonders why the Southern woman cannot evinco tho same self-reliance and economy dow to make the South pros perous. If need be, they can and will do it, depend upon it. Oh! this eternal hue aud cry about woman’s dress and extrava gance ! Will it never end ? Must it always be sung in our ears? For our part, we are heartily tired of it, and wish the men knew half the hardships woman endures. But the dull-eyed world notes it not ; even affeotiou is ignorant of the fact, and scarcely do their own hearts acknowledge the painful, but un- noticeable burdens they bear. We fear Maj. Calhoun has not been among us quite long enough to fully appreciate the position of Houtnern women. Should he go to their homos, he would find the ma jority of them doing their own work— such as cooking, milkiug, churning, wash ing, irouing, scrubbing, washing clothes, etc., besides sewing und the care of a family, and in most instances the woman is tho main spoke iu the wheel. She sup ports tho fuiuily, husband included. It is quite the stylo nowadays for the hus bands and sous to go on all tho excur sions, attend all tho fairs, while the mo ther and daughters stay at homo and carry on the work. Men, in marrying, select self-supporters—women who can make a living for them with their brains, or by a sewing machine ; when wo hear of such, wo arc forced to exclaim, “0 temporal 0 mores /” Homo writer has said that women dread industry, effort and self-denial, more than anything else, but we do not believe this, for since tho war boo how nobly they have gone to work, and without a murmur; and when we contrast their mode of life before the war with the present, we are amazod to see how they can aud do udapt themselves to surround ing circumstances. They are always ready to make sacrifices, which is one of tho noblest virtues, and when we henr moil complaiu of their extravagance in dress, oh, how we long to tell them that iu most instances it coHt their fathers and husbands nothing; they earn their own money, and should, at least, be allowed to spend it as they like. Extravagance for sooth! Why wo have scarcely soon a new drofis and hat this winter. Calico is is universally the best dross worn, and if they buy fifteen or twouty yards, what matters it ? They pay for it, and if they choose to put a dozon flounces on it, why don’t say a word; lot them do it, they make it und iron it. Now and then, wo grant, you will meet with a few giddy butterflies of fashion, who indulge iu needless extravagancies, hut must all bear the blame of a aonse- lessfew? It is altogether unjust. The Greeks and Romans did not fit every wo man to ono type. They had their Venus, Diana, Minerva, Juno and Ceres. But in modern times thoy aro all tilted to ono type—tho extravagant woman of fashion. Do wo ever hear any one wonder why men and boys ure extravagant ? Do wo ovor hoar of their making sacrifices ? Since thoso panicky times have come up ou us, has any ono heard of a man giving up his whisky, wiue, cigars aud tobacco ? Oh, no, those things aro a sine qua non to his existence; yot, women can do with out dresses, and bonnets, and even coffee, aud ’tis nothing more than their duty. Occasionally we meet with sensible men (for they arc not all dead yet,) and what u blessing they are not all alike. We re joice to say thoro aro men who labor to support their families, and are willing that, their wives shall dress, and their children bo educated ; and we cry from our hearts, God bless such men! They aro not self ish, either, uud sinco coffee is 35 cents per pouud, they have discarded it, be cause tho wife aud children cannot drink They oat their chickens, eggs and butter, and drink tho milk, for tho wifo is not forced to Boll such things provide clothing for horsolf and littlo ones. Doubtless many of our readers will find fault with this plain talk, but thou nobody cau ovor do auythiug without tho courage to be dis agreeable at times—and Major Calhoun’s speech inspired tis with this courage. Wo read everything from his pen with much iuterost; and while deep iu this practical address, our dear, good sister came into tho room, flushed and tired from tho irouing table, threw herself on tho sofa to rost, aud listeuiug to the read ing, while discussing its merits Wo wished that Maj. C. could step in just then, and see us iu our homespun dresses which we’ve been wearing these two years, mado in Columbus, of Geor gia cottou, nud by Georgia girls, then ho would not longer wonder why at least two Southern girls did not try to keep making tho South prosperous. Now, wo will desist, for we’vo alroady said enough; aud the noxt address Maj. Calhoun delivers, we hope he will say something About tho extravagance of men. Perchance it might have a good effect.
