In Georgia the longdrouth and late spring have been productive of had stands and slow growth. On tho first of September next there will lie held at The Hague, Netherlands, u conference of the “Association for the Reform and Cod ification of tho Law of Nations.” David Dudley Field, who, with Ills brother, Cyrus W., has done so much for bringing nations together, is President of tho Association, and is busily engaged making preparations for it. We i.eakn that Col. Robert Tyler, of Montgomery, has received tho ap pointment, of Centennial Commis sioner for the Southern States, and 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 tleman more worthy of the honor, and one, too, who will certainly be able to arouse some interest, in the South in tho approaching Centennial anniversary of the American Repub lic. --• ♦ • PerMonal. 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 the Holy Land, and they are taking a photographer with them. There is some talk of the Marquis of Bipon accompanying them. To-day North Carolina Is undergo ing an invasion. The militia of ad joining States arc encamped in large numbors on tho sacred soil. Tho town of Charlotte, already crowded, expects 20,000 moro people to arrive this morning to swofl the gathering under tho hornet’s nest that caps her flagstaff. Among tills throng no rep resentative of tiie United States Gov ernment Is expected, but there 1h no lack of loyalty aud patriotism. The State Government is woll represent ed, and in yesterday’s exercises Gov. Brogden delivered tho oratlom * .V. I". Tribune. e " 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. /"IHATTAHOOCUKE COURT OP OKUINARY.
