Om* Sunday in woven days jiwt one
and for what? Do you want it? do
you netxl it? Yes, you want it, and
you nood it; no matter who you are,
you til' let have it. A day of reel ia a
universal want for there never w.i
a human bolaK who could live with
out a .Sabbath.
IYe lit the eottuKO to the palace,
from the workshops to the Senate
Chamber, front the seaeoast to the
Interior,from the tropics to the )>ole.s,
man woods this returning day of re
pose. Tiie savage grows tired of his
chase, the beggar-child wearies out
asking tor aims, the laborer craves
relief from toil, the seholar turns to
relaxation from research, the royal
heist seeks a respite from the eontln
ual burden of a crown; even the
vicious Welcome a day which will
give surcease from vice.
Ha/dlt t. lias a paper on tin- "persons
one would wish to have seen. XI e
would like to see a man whose life
can b^counted off by the number of
his Sabbaths. Brickmasous, in lay
ing a wall, place down six layers of
briek in regular succession, and then
put Uto seventh in a transverse direc
tion to ‘‘tie the wall,” us they say; so
when the building Is complete, the
tie-layers cun lw counted off by look
ing at the structure, and but for these
tie-layers the building would fall.
Our Sabbath days are the tie-layers
thnt fasten the weeks together. Fur
ther, as in the wall six bricks are laid
in parallel directions for the process
of the structure, and the seventh
briek placed In transverse position ;
for the strengtli of the building, so
the Subbath must strengthen the
other six days. There are six days
for the body and one for the soul; six
days’ work fpr physical sustenance
and one for spi rlt ual grace. W< would
like to see the man whose seventh
days ciui be counted, whose life is so
built Up that the Sabbath can bo
seen, and who measures the growth
of Ills plans by the strength of his
rest Juyrt.
Ttila is (he Uth ot February, 187,',
a Sabbath that will bo memorable for
some event. What art you going to
do with it? You want it; why do
you want it? You need it; why do
you need it? You are (o make u Sab
bath davfa journey in sone' direction :
where are you going? Many centu
ries ago a law was written with nine
others ou tablets of stone •‘Remem
ber the Sabbath day to keep it holy.’’
Ask yourself Row to keep it holy.
Says .T ltd sort; •• We liave many pro
fess. >rn of religion who are far from
paying due respoot to the I/ord tuai
Master in the proper observance of
this day; some attend ehttreh in the
morning, and cither lounge, sleep or
rideout in the afternoon. Some arc
fair weather going people, and are
pleased to see a succession of stormy
or at least cloudy Sundays. Others
liave the seventh-day headache,
widt h commences about nine every
Sabbath morning, and coniines them
to bed until about four in the after
noon. Others toil so hard for them
selves through tlte week that they ;
are unlit for devotional duties on
Sunday, and if they go to church, it
is only to save censure from the pas
tor and brethren ; they then sleep
away the sermon for fear the truths
might set too closely and pinch their
consciences. There are others who
do not go to church because they
cannot dross as well as some ot tiers
vain pride being stronger than their
religion. ”

We are glail the Senate has jxisseil
the resolution, endorsing Scott’s Pn
citic liuilroud scheme. The South
lots never had any benefits from the
National Treasury, and now that we
liave an opportunity, every man who
could exert any influence, should ex
orcise it in behalf of the road. The
press of the State are almost unani
mous for it. The various boards of
Trade. ami the City Councils of the
South, liave forwarded petitions to
Washington in its mteityst. It is
tnifc that prefect Is in the hands
of a few, but it will develop and as.
sist in building up tho Small. The
North is optioned to it, of oourse,
for tho same reason they are oppos
ed to our progress every way.
The heaviest opjiosition comes
from those who now own land on the
Nm'Uuein Pacific, pud as this road
will somewhat interfere with the
ready sale of those lands, a little
grain of allowance should be made
for those who attack the road; es
liecially \vlieu.to start with, they are
optiosed to our progress, and second
ly, have an i/iferext in tile failure of
tho project.

PrMettdut. We think your appre

An editor j expeeted to know many
things. Imt your in a puss

marry, which would give you quite a
“healthy'’ margin to grow in w isdom.
If tile old fellow could speak from
his grave, we apprehend his advice to
you would lie, never to marry at all,
unless you can have better luck than
he did with Xanthippe. P<t rimtra,
old Ben Franklin wrote to a young
friend of his, not then twenty-one,
that early marriages could present
by far the better record of domestic
felicity, if your habits are steady;
if you are in a business capable
of supporting yourself and a wife;
above all, if the young lady upon
whom you have designs lias, like Mrs.
John Gilpin, a frugal mind-you may

Jtthtctr. You are quite right in sup
posing that we would he a much hard
ier people, if more attention were
paid physical training. Yes; the an
cients exceeded the present genera
tion in stature. We can not name,
with certainty, the greatest feat of
strength recorded in profane history.
Maximitn, the Roman Emperor, was
said to have been eight feet in height,
(Gibbon says upwards,) and tiis
strength so groat that with one blow
of his list he could kill a man or break
the thigh-bone of a horse. Pet r
Francisco, of Virginia, was a man of
prodigious strength perhaps the
physical superior of any man who
ever lived in the United States. It
was of him that the story is told that
a man who went to “handle.' Idm on
n wager, was picked up by Francisco
| and hurled several feet over the fence
that enclosed the latter's yard The
stronger had ridden his pony in front
of Francisco’s house, and when he
lifted himself up in the street he
called out to F. that if lie mould jvsl

Frank M. C.- No; neither ot the
passages is in Shakspcare, though
both are so pithy as to lead one easi
ly into that error. The first is in
“Follok’s Course of Time,’’a poepi
of some merit, but much bombast.
It is spoken of tho hypocrite :
“lie was a man
Who stole dvo livorv of the court of heaven
To serve the devil in.’’
The oilier is to be found originally
in an “Ode on a Distant Prospect of
Eton College,’’ by Thomas Gray, the
author of the celebrated Elegy in a
Country Churchyard. The correct
reading is,
—.—“ Where ignorance is Miss
■Tie folly to Pc wise."
Alatmum writes to us in this gloomy
strain: “I am sick; you might almost
say bqd-JSddey. 1 think my lot is a
hard one. Not being able to follow
any occupation, my time hangs heav
ily on my bauds. 1 want something
to read that will cheer me up—some
thing light—not history or anything
of a business style.” Read Gold

ynost charming stories in the English
language. The vein of humor is ad

and uiosteaptivating style. Knicker

Dr. Samuel Johnson, will teach you

Atlanta, fit, Feb. 12, 1*75.
One of the rarest trents of the sea
son was the eloquent speech to-night
of ex-Gov. Z. B. Yuuceon the subject
of “the demagogue.” ‘it was a capi
tal speech, delivered for the benefit
of the Young Men's Library Associa
tion. He sjvoke to a hill bouse, a
great many ladies gracing the occa
sion by their presence. Everybody
who does not know Zeli Vance per
sonally. knew him by reputation to
lie one of the most gifted men in the
United States, besides a humorist of
lirst magnitude. He handled “the
demagogue” in a masterly manner, 1
and by his sallies of wit. kept the nu- j
dience highly pleased.
The Legislature has passed a great j
many hills, but none of any great im- j
liortance to tlie Htate. The influence ,
of Atlanta has defeated the bill to call ■
a convention, for the reason that In
the convention tlie, gn at ipwetion of
removing the capitol to Macuu ,ip*;
Millcdgcville will, necessarily 'come •
up. It does not seem to lie exactly
fair that Atlanta should thus attempt j
to keep tin- eajiitol in Atlanta, when ;
a majority of the voters want it else-:
where. The members who come j
from Middle and Southern Georgia ]
will have to give an account of them-;
selves when they again come before
their constituency. Though they [
were not elected on that issue, yet it
was generally understood that the |
people desired a convention for that
and other reasons. Are we to suffer i
Crow dafeotatn the const imti. m sink- ’
ply because the (juestvou of remov- i
ing the capttol will Fj agitated ? The j
most conclusive argument for its re-1
moral is put in the mouths of the ;
people by the tardy legislation of the j
legislators. Tt is even now talked of |
prolonging the session, while the best!
half has Istii frittered away, which
would u"t have IH-en the case if the!

that when a man wants a drink he is
going to get. it, and get it in the very

The terrible mishap at tlm AVauxa
hatehie bridge on the Selma road in
j still fresh lltlhe minds of cur read

bridge. Home month? ago. with a
I train of passenger cars upon it, and
the Huddeu, horrible hurling into
eternity of many who were on board,
and the terrible mangling of tho-■
i who were not killed outright in the
j crash. As our readers recall the hat

: that shrieking calamity, they will he
glad to knew that th •’ author- of all
the fatal wrecking of the train that
i night' at tho AVnnxahateliie bridge
; hath Jmeft detected and captured.
Su-kiietwi was tirst tixed upon one
(of Grim who resided at rolumbiana,
ncat-tbe bridge, by his presence at the
! scene of the calamity almost simulta
-1 neously with its oe urrom e, and also
; by hi previously having manifested
I dissatisfaction with the small dam
i ages |id him for the killing, bv tic
, train, of a mare and colt which be

| eumstantial evidence there was, ho
! tarn? we heard, upon which to found
any suspicions. A H"-rro detective.
! whose name wo did’not I am, from
Montgomery, worked up tho ease.
: It was done ill the following manner:
This negro detective, by a fweni
! raugoment, got on the Selma train
! and traveled as far as Columbiana,
j Here the conductor put him off the
! train, professedly because he could
\ not pay bis face auy fuither. Tiic
i negro now uffeetetl to be very intiig

I cials, asserting that the former ought
I to be torn up. and the latter all killed
j taking pains to act this chnrnctei
: out very strongly iu the preseuee of
! the suspioioned parties, with whom
he tlirew iiimscff astmieh as potwible.
All this time he was peddling off
goods which, lie confidentially told
these suspected persons with whom
ihe hud now grown intimate, he
i had stolen from a certain place
I where they might replenish their
i stock, as it should become neeessarj.
| They entered fully into all of his
I plans. All tliis time our colored de
flective never let an opportunity slip
for abusing the Selma load. Finally
one of these suHpicioned parties in
reciprocation of all tlii? eonfldential
abuse, linlnmiened hiKHmiiand con
fided to the colored defective the ter
rible secret of having thrown the
train from off the Wauxahntehie
bridge. Thus haviugthem in the net,
tlie strings were drawn and three of
the railroad murderers wore arrested
a ftev days ago. There is n fourth
j one who is still at large.
Of the three arrested, one is a ne

where tlie b dts have lieeii hid. which
were drawn from the bridge on the
fatal night on which it gave way in
the terrible wreck. He has also fully
