Tiie Comino Harvest.— The crop

will shortly enter upon the discharge
of his duties. The appointment re
flects credit upon the managers of
the Centennial Exposition, as it could
not have been bestowed upon a gen

and one, too, who will certainly be
able to arouse some interest, in the
South in tho approaching Centennial

Wo wero pleased to moot yesterday
Capt. It. H. Lochridge, Assistant
State Geologist, who i in the eity on
a preliminary survey. Ho gives a
very gratifying report of the mineral
and cretaceous formations of this
section. To-morrow wo will give our
readers an account of his investiga
tions around Columbus, and vicinity.
He is en-routo for the Florida line,
following the Chattahoochee river.
ImnilKraliflii West.
For a long number of years, the
immigrant has been studiously
taught to deprecate the South and
to shun it* borders, as the embodi
ment of slavery arid death. Grad
ually the curtain has been drawn
aside, and tho veil of obscurity lifted.
To-day we hoar from these same peo
ple, and tiiey declare themselves in
favor of returning to thoir far homos
or settling in a more wholesome cli
mate. Tile general expression is in
favor of the South. They have
learned from experience that tho
devices brought to bear to induce
them to tho West were falso, and
that no hotter country and moro salu
brious climate is found than in tho
South. We trust, for thoir benefit
and ours, that they may be led to
stop with us. They are compolled
on account of tho devastating grass
hopper and prairie tiro to leavo their
flrst settlemout, and we offer them a
safe and suro retreat among us. In
and around Columbus can bo found
an abundatico of fertile land, which
| can be bought at' nominal figures.
Como this way and try our climate,
our land and our people.
4.corral Mlirriiian’s Book.
We hnvo noticed the various com
ments on General Sherman’s book.
Homo of them coming from tho Nor
thern press arc very fulsome, and
somo fow Southern editors have ech
oed their sentiments. Now we do
not pride ourselves on our great ad
miration for this great Wahoo, and
probably on this account will bo ex
cused from joining Gideon’s band,
and shouting over his glory. Sher
man has nothing to boast of, though
ho displays throughout his book on
inordinate vanity, which perhaps is
excusable under the circumstances.
Would it not be a good idea for
thoso who are praising his maideu
efforts to reflect and take into consid
eration wherein his “great and trium
phal march through Georgia” was
successful? The North should under
stand that his only foes wero a hand
full uf Confederate troops, the hatred
and contempt of our glorious women,
and a few aged men. The obstacles
in his path were a number of barns,
some few jpules, and a ten rail fence
or so. Tho conquost was easy, be
cause our men were in Virginia and
Tennessoe. Had they been injQeor
gia, Sherman would have been cap
tured, and his government would
have cashiered him for incompcten
cy. His book is all blow, and no
genuine victory perched upon the
“star bespangled” while in his grasp.
A half dozen regiments of “Confeds”
would have cleaned his army in their
“march to tho sea.” He had good
luck in slipping in while all were ab
sent, and yet when he got to the
coast ho and his vandal horde were
scared nigh unto death. A stray rifle
shot would havo demoralized him
and his barn-burning, cowardly wo
mon-lighters, and baby-searors, and
created such n panic that tho swamps
of Georgia would havo teemed with
his horse-stealing bravos. Sherman
talks too much in his book. Ho has
said n great deal, and means nothing.
In fact his book contains so much,
that we are satisfied he does not tell
half tho truth, for there is not that
much truth in any one man. His
abuse of his fellow officers anil broth
er thieves is not at all becoming. He
owes more to them than to expose
them, simply to make himself the
hero of tho infamous job of burning
Georgia, insulting her women, and
stealing their plate and jowelry.
INTELLECT!'AT, DISSIPATION*
We mean the very common habit of
reading and collecting libraries with
out a definite object in view. We
know of one instance in which a very
studious gentleman, who was an ar
dent admirer of Napoleon the First,
collected a library in which was a
book-case filled entirely with works
upon Napoleon. Probably there wore
more than a hundred volumes upon
Napoleon Bonaparte. It occurred to
us that this was a literary dissipation.
In no utilitarian spirit of captious
criticism do wo write, but with the
hope that these few lines may sug
gest a modification in tho prevalent
mode of reading and teaching. The
average duration of human lifo is
thirty-four years, and it is well for us
to keep that fact in view. The time
in whieli wo must prepare for tho ac
tive duties of life, which ut best is
rarely prolonged beyond seventy
years, is therefore very limited. In
many respects we cling to “old-fogy
lsm,” but in education wo do not. We
glance around us and see that a me
chanic in this New World receives
twice us much per day for his labor
as the Professor does. Lament it as
wo may, it is nevertheless u fact.
“Pity ’tis ’tis true, but ’tis true.”
Now, what does this teach us ? Not
thut we must not try to got whut is
called “a liberal education,” if we can
afford to do it—for no possession is
more valuable iu itself—but to limit
education to our means to secure a
thorough knowledge of a few sub
jects, rather than to skim over the
surfaco of all knowledge and go forth
into tho world with an empty cran
ium and tho brilliant plumage of a
diploma. Is a “diploma,” in this
country, wortli anything as an evi
dence of efficiency ? We arc opposed
to the system of “cramming,” the
meaning of whieli word every school
boy knows. We do not see the utility
of acquiring a knowledge of the
ancient classics, for example, merely
“to train the blind, ” as its advocates
assert is its chief prerogative. We
contend that the modern languages
offer as fine a field for mentul train
ing as the ancient do, with the ad
vantage of being able to put the in
formation so acquired into practical
use in every day affairs. Wo would
not abolish the study of the ancient
classics, but wo would make their
study eclectic rather thuu obligatory.
Tho day has passed when such a note
as was written by James Redpath to
Henry Ward Beecher sounds better
in Latin than in English. All such
ornamental affectation evinces years
passed in a species of intellectual
dissipation. In the ease of Beecher
it is allowable, because he started out
in lifo with a flxed idea of attaining
distinction in his profession and a
knowledge of the classics is in that
profession, and in the law, almost a
stne qua non. Hut to what good end
is a boy, intended for one of the me
chanical trades, educated in Greek
and Latin ? Our men of wealth in
this country are almost to a man self
made men, and the system adopted
of teaching to men who design simply
a business career, knowledge that
they will never be able to utilize,
causes our self-made men to despise
education and to over-estimate their
own importance and mental superi
ority. Take, now, thn written and
spoken language of a man liko Carl
Sc.liurz. He does not havo time to
learn the weaker words and “slang”
which mar tho discourses of our pub
lic nieu, and hence no Saxon-Euglish
is stronger, more correct, and more
forcible than his. His English is
necessarily limited, but it is good—
and we would like to see our system
of education for children modeled
somewhat after this plan. We think
education would bo more valuable if
it embraced fewer subjects and fewer
books until the child is old enough
to doeido intelligently for himself his
futuro career. Then let his studies
be shaped solely to that end. Let
people think more. In older to ac
complish this tho only thing neces
sary, it seems to us, is to judiciously
select tho books to bo read and tho
books to be taught. There may bo
English-spoaking men who can ap
preciate tho Hebrew Bible better than
tho English version, but they are cer
tainly not common. There may be
those who find Virgil moro beauti
ful and more classical than Sainte
Beuvo or many of tho English
writers, but we are not of them.
We fear that fashion, in this matter
of intellectual dissipation, goes too
far, and sometimes binds the mind so
much as almost to preclude locomo
tion of its own. We are a supporter
of the plan advocated last year, of
unifying all the Colleges and making
them subordinate to one University,
when the eclectic system would ob
tain, and reforms suited to the
changed condition of our people
would gradually be instituted.
These crude thoughts, hurriedly
written, we hope may suggest to those
far more competent than the writer,
some reforms that are very much
needed.
—Tho Marquis and tho Marchion
ess of Bute are just about to start for

To-day North Carolina Is undergo

Could there be a greater evidence
of tho selfish sectional policy pursued
still by tho Government? “No rep
resentation of tho United States Gov
ernment is expected, but thero is no
lack of loyalty and patriotism.”
Grunt attended tho Concord Centen
nial, and his visit cost the State of
Massachusetts several thousand dol
lars. Grunt won’t do; he is not only
a malignant partisan devoid of the
high impulses of patriotism, but he
is the most avaricious of men. It is a
shame to indulge in this partisan
sectional policy.
