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. ” Miulliti'ik I’hciHc ltailruml. 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.

As far as our reading and observation i extends, the Roman Catholics, in this | country ut least, are less disposed to ; meddle with political affairs than any 1 class of religionists. You never And a Catholic Priest stepping aside from | ids consecrated post; but in Congress, ■State Legislatures, and ail jurying ■ places, white cravats of a Protestant i persuasion are not rare.

Socrates said thirty-*i.r was the proper age for a man to 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 go farther and fare worse in any delay of the matter 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 throw him /its pony he'd yo leone, 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 smith's Vicar of Wakefield, one of the ynost charming stories in the English language.

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.

The Supreme Court is about finish ing up the business of the Western Circuit, though from necessity the business moves slowly along. The House was busy yesterday afternoon In hearingbilHre:id against the liquor traffic in several small places. Ts not this ridiculous legisla tion? Does not. the Legislature know that when a man wants a drink he is going to get. it, and get it in the very town in which it is prohibited? Did any law ever keep a mart from taking a drink? and yet the State of Georgia is ilKy&jjf representatives seven dol lars per day, and at least one day out of each vvis.k is consume ! in srfch stuff, costing the taft-payera for the discussion of ouch bill live hundred dollars pier hour.

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 i rowing, sickening circumstances of : 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 ! longed to him. This was all the clr | 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 j mint with the road and all the offi- 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.
