Ex-Pbesident Jobs son is working with
what are called the “Independonts”in Ten

he finds no existing party good enough

own.
The Nashville Union and American
notes the shipment from that port of 800
tons of Bartow (Gs.) pig iron by steamer

“carrying coals to Newcastle," but only a

terprise are needed to make Georgia and
Alabama the cheapest and bent iron-pro
ducing regions in the country.

A young lady living uonr Hamilton
wishes to know wbieh is tho highest com
pliment—to ssy that one has no oqusl, or
that she has no superior ? We think to
say that she has no equal is the highest
compliment that can be paid.— Viiitor.
We dilfer with Bro. Bonlly. A compli
ment, like everything else, may be so far
overdone by exaggeration as to make
it sheer flattery or irony; nnd the superla
tive praise which he prefers amounts to
that. No person can be thoughtfully iu
earnest who Hys that another “has no
equal,” and sensible people will prefer
that compliments bestowed npon them
shall be at toast plausible, and not ful
some hyperbole.

We hade call from this
gentleman on Friday, on bin return from
the Teaohers' Convention in Maooo. It
was a pleasant revival of “old memorim >
and a quickening of old friendships.
Prof. Diekaon and onrself shared the
same bat in the wilds of Ken see, daring
the sectional oonflict for snptaaaaey far
that Territory in 1887. We spilt rails,
rived boards, and built rode cabins to
gether, and together aeoared the then
trackless prairies on bnatnem or after
game. Knowing the man thus intimately
—knowing hit worth, energy and ability—
we rejoice to see that he is appreciated as
he ahonld be, and that hie fellow-eitisens
are urging hie eeleotion for n more im
portant position than that which he now
Alls. He ia one of the most thorough
cal scholars In the South, and
his long devotion to teaching in
the higher Mminaries of Alabama and
Georgia baa made what la study to other
men discipline end system with Urn. We
have not a doubt that if the people of
Alabama ahonld make him State Superin
tendent of Education, they would have in
that position n men eves equal to ell lie
demands, ardently devoted to tie duties,
end m fully comprehending them as any
mas in the country could. So well dose
be fill bis preMnt responsible position,
that a change of parties in Mobile does
not displace him, aa it dose other* of hie
party, because all know that they have
much to risk and nothing to gain by re
moving him. We copy from the Macon
Telegraph aa editorial notice of Prof.
Dickson, and heartily endorse its com
mendation :
