ARE THEY A BENEFIT?
No line so plainly divided the North
ami South as their system of common
schools, and nothing so plainly pro
claimed their distinct nationality as
the fact that their different systems
were indigenous to and grew out of
I their difference of labor. At the
| South, where there was inequality of
j political and social status, to develop
| the individual was the great aim of
| State; at the North, where there was
i no inequality, the aim was to develop
I the masses.
j Asa natural consequence, the
South regarded character as the cri
terion of civilization amt greatness,
j and the North regarded numbers and
material wealth. One pointed to her
virtuous women, her chivalry, her
statesmen and orators; the other to
her ships,-commerce and the multi
tude and bigness of her houses und
cities.
That character, as an evidence of
strength to a nation, is superior to
numbers and wealth, was scarce in
the secession war, for with ull the
power of the North and the world to
back her, she could not whip out the
blockaded South until she called on
our own stalwart, hardy labor, raised
in Southern fields, to her nib! We
have the word of Lincoln and numer
ous politicians, and Ihc whole North
ern press, that they were indebted to
Southern negro soldiers for their vic
tory.
As Indiaus can only be conquered
by Indians, and Greeks were only
conquered by Greeks, so we have
the word of the Xortli: that the South
could only be conquered by the
South, Our press have been very
amiss in not making the North stand
by her word; when she plumes her
self and swells over her conquest.
Was it not the great argument used
for giving the blacks suffrage and
civil rights, that to them the North
was indebted for victory over the
Rebels ?
As the system of schools arises from
difference of labor, and the superiori
ty of character over numbers, as a
military strength to a nation was
proven by the late war; for though
defeated, the South was proven the
strongest nation of the two; and only
could ho whipped out by her own
hardy, healthy field labor, and her
own error in not using it in her own
armies, (for the blacks would have
fought as well for froedom given by
the South, ns by the North?. It is
well to note the military strength of
the South owing to her bond labor,
as compared with all other nations
of the world, cap ■ -i illy those that
boast of their pu ili s s \i > ils an 1 the
added strength tli >s • schools are
supposed to -gi v * i * mill try power.
Russia, with the largest army, suc
cumbed to Engine i and France after
a two years’ war, though attacked
only on one point Jlrimea. Austria
succumbed to Italy and France in
one campaign, th "ugh attacked only
on one side, an I armies nearly equal.
Austria sueeumiie | tn Prussia in one
battle-armies equal and attacked on
one side only ; while Prussia hut for
the skill of her General might have
been defeated, and by this one de
feat put at much Inn 's lie ronitxit, as
has Austria. France succumbed to
the ormies of Germ any in one year,
though with itti equal army and at
tacked only "U one side.
When one contemplates such mili
tary weakness among the first na
tions of Europe when on the defen
sive, what shall be suid or boasted of
free labor and free schools us a source
of military strength? Napoleon I.
educated his soldiers, and his educa
ted army lost him Russia. It was his
uneducated soldiers that won him
] fame and bid defiance to numbers,
| time and obstacles. Educate a man
land the more highly he thinks of
himself; the less reckless will he be
with bis iife; the less apt to throw it
away, or offer it a sacrifice to a Gen
eral or to liberty. And hence the
I rapid conquest of educated Stales.
| The nearer the people approach the
rich and royalty in comfort and
j brains, the more highly they prize
their lives, and when high public
j schools have given ull the people the
education of royalty they will hens
! clear of (lunger as kings, and des
potism will reign because men will
not care to risk their hard-earned
learning before tile c.iauee (light of a
bullet.
While education in (he lice.labor
States leads to military weakness and
consequently to despotism, because
the more high! - they esteem them
selves, like royally, the less wil
ling they are to risk their lives; in
bond-labor States it has the contrary
effect, because ir the master gets
i maimed and useless, he knows be has
j other strong arms and willing hearts
'to work for his support; and the more
I slaves he has, the more reckless of
I life he is—the more willing to offer it
to his country—because if he dies he
knows art hundred pairs of able, wil
i ling hands will earn a noble mainte
‘ nance for wife and children; and
j hence the private ranks in our late
war '.(.ere composed largely of our
wealthy slaveholders ami their sons.
Even Mexico, with Uer C'oolie labor,
made a better light, considering her
| inferiority and weakness, defending
her country against the United States,
than has any country in Europe made
! for the last thirty years.
We make the assertion, willing to
be convicted of error, that every Eu
-1 ropean nation that has adopted pub
lic free schools has thereby lessened
COLUMBUS, GA., SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER f, 1875.
the valor aud bravery of her people.
That, take away all the aids of mod
ern improvement railroads, revolv
ing guns, and all the helps of modern
warfare and there is but little left
of valor, daring, and the conquest of
obstacles. War is only a machine,
where the strategy of generals wins
the victory, and not the valor of the
troops.
Because site was defeated, it is so
customary to speak of the military
weakness of the South that doubtless
we shall bo considered fit for tho lu
natic asylum when we declare that
the world uever before saw such an
exhibition of military strength, and
never can again with free labor coun
tries. It was as though God put her
in u position Unit no nation was over
placed in before, in order to show the
superiority of character over num
bers as a source of military strength,
and the superiority of bond-labor,
also, as a source oil strength over
free-labor; for only her own bond
labor could deal the death blow.
We see that several Southern pa
pers are ventilating the right, und
wrong of Public High Schools, and
while the subject is up for discussion
we hope abler pens will argue the
question "whether the public schools
of Europe have not proven a source
of military weakness”; for notwith
standing every State of Europe bris
tles with bayonets aud is dotted with
public schools, they have only to he
invaded by an equal army aud they
topple over like corn stalks before
the scythe.
Some will say “we thought you
were talking about schools,' not war.
Why do you prate so much about
war ? We are tired of thinking or
hearing about our war.” But tho
boast of free schools everywhere is,
first, “that they make bettor soldiery
and add to tho military streugtli of a
nation.” This assertion we dispute,
and have' tried to prove that facts do
not corroborate the boast. For the
nations of Europe are more readily
wliipt out than they ever were; easier
conquered than even when in a state
of semi-barbarisiu. While no nation
in the world ever exhibited the mili
tary prowess and power to resist in
vasion as did the South.
We may well pause before we give
up the best system of private schools
tho world ever possessed, und rush
headlong into untried experiments of
public schools, which do not yield
tho strength their advocates claim,
and concerning which tho Northern
Press are giving frequent aud loud
warnings. We purpose in Sunday
articles to give some of their utter
ances as collected since the war, and
to make comments therein, showing
the evils of public schools as already
developed at the North. For of all
the dangers that threaten ns in the
future we think noue more pregnant
of ill than the Northern system of
public schools. Ozin.

TESTIMONY OF AN EYEWITNESS.
Chicago, September 4.— Mr. Can
don, of this city, who went out with
a Block Hills exploring company last
April, has returned, after an unsuc
cessful foray into the disputed lands.
He organized an expedition to the
San Juan rejections of the Southern
Colorado in Boulder City, which has
not boon prospected for years. He
found a rich gold-bearing lode which
was worked profitably tor weeks, and
which proves that the country, by
some supposed to have been ex
hausted, is still better fitted for oper
ating than the famous Black Hills.
Of tho great army of adventurers who
have visited Nebraska in search of
gold in the Black Hills, not one, so
far, has brought back a hundred dol
lars in gold, and the superintendent
of the Chicago Smelting Works has
made over twenty different assays of
gold quartz taken from tho Black
Hills.

MALARIA!
Read, Reflect and Act.
If one grain of Vaccine YMrus, taken from the
cow’s udder and kept dry lor years, then mois
tened, und the keenest point of a Lancet dipped
iu it aud drawn gently >u the arm, so as out to
draw the blood, will so impregnate aud change
the entire system as to prevent the party so vac
cinated from taking the most loathsome of dis*
eases (small pox) for an entire life; again, if tho
Celebrated Eucalyptus tree will change an unin
habitable malarial district into a healthy, salu
brious dime, by simply absorbing from the at
woaphero tho poison malaria, why will not the
proper remedy, properly applied, neutralize and
destroy the poison, known as malaria, and tbna
enable parties to inhabit malarial districts with
impunity 7
Wu claim that there is such a remedy, aud that
we have prepared it. and applied it, and proved
it iu our Anti-malarial or Fuchymial Belt—aud
that persons who will wear this Belt may inhabit
the worst malarial districts without the fear ol
having any diseases arising from malaria; such as
Chills and Fever, Billious or Intermittent Fever,
Y'ellow Fever, Jauudice, Enlarged Liver and
Spleen, Indigestion, Constipation and Hem
orrhoids, and tha it will cure all the above dis
eases, except the worst cases of Billious aud Yel
low Fever.
This is called an Anti-malarial or Euchymlal
Belt, as it corrects the humors of the Lody aud
produces a healthy action, invigorating the sys
tem, and thus enabling it to per orui ita various
duties without fcariug the effects of malaria in
the least.
It lias been tried in thousands of cases without
a failure.
They can bo obtained from the proprietors iu
any quantity at the Powell Building, junction of
Broad and Peachtree streets, Atlanta, Ga.
Price for a single Belt $3, or $5 with a guaran
tee that it will cure or the money refunded.
N. B.—None gi inline without tho trade mark
iH stamped upon them.

United States. Address,

Room No. 8, Powell Building, Atlanta, Ga.
A liberal discount made to the trade.
Caution.—This Belt or Pad, like all articles of
merit, is being imitated by parties who ary try
ing to put up a worthless article, as there is not
a liviug person, besides ourselves, that knows
the ingredients iu it. We are the patentees, aud
have our Belt protected by a Trade Mark.
Sure Cure.—ln another column will bo found
two remarkable certificates about the efficacy of
Drs. Willson A Love’s Malarial Belts. The diffi
culty in the way of using these belts is that they
arc so simple that few cun believe that thsru is
any virtue in them. When a patient is told to
use one he is very much like Naauian when told
that, to cure his leprosy, ho had ouly to bathe iu
the river Jordan. Hon. John E. Ward says that
duriug his stay in China, as Minister, these belta
were used with great as preventives of
cholera. Wo know a case where a lady had been
suffering with chills for more than u year, aud
was finally induced to adopt one of those belts.
She lias not bod a return of the chills since, aud
she is fully persuaded that it is owing to the belt.
Dr. Wlllsob’s terms are very ftilr—no euro, uo
pay.

Messrs. Lovk A Willson: Gentlemen—ln Apri
last I was tukou nick with regular Fever aud
Ague, having it every alternate day. After it had
run on mo for two weeks, I was induced to try
oue of your Anti-malarial belts; ao 1 discarded all
medicine, and simply wore oue of your llelts, as
directed, and my Ague became lighter each suc
cessive time thereafter for somo three or four
times, when it left mo entirely, with a good appe
tite and clear skin; and in future, if {"should ever
have a Chill or Ague,l would want one of your Pads,
and no physic. Wishing everybody that may be
so unfortunate as to have Chills and Fever may
bo fortunate enough to get one of your Dolts,
1 am, respectfully, etc.,
W. J. Wilson.

Dus. Lovk A Wii.lson:
On the tirst day of December last I was taken
with Chills and Fever in Thniuasville, Houtbwes
tern Uu„ and was treated for the same by three
eminent physicians who were able to stop it ouly
tor a lew days at a time. It made such inroads
on my constitution that my physiciau pronouu
! ced me to be in the first stages of consumption,
wh eu 1 accidentally met up with Drs. Love k Will
j son’s Anti-malarial Belt, which has entirely cured
I me. 1 have hud but one chill since, aud that was
I the first <lay alter putting it on. lam now in as
good health ns I ever was in my Hie, and think
this Belt a God-tend to the afflicted.

Cannon House, Atlanta, Ga., June 4,1875.
Home nine years ago I contracted malaria in
Savannah, (la., from which 1 have suffered, at
times, *ver since, until I met up with Drs. Love A
Wills!in’s Anti-malarial Belt some three months
ago. I have worn it continually, and have had no
chill since, and find my general health, which
hag been poor, much improved. I would recom
mend it to others suffering with malaria.

The people of this town don’t chill worth aceut
yet. 1 have sold two of the pails, aud that I did
the very hour 1 first received them, oue to oue of
our conductors, aud to Mr. Vaughn, a Clerk in
the office. They both say that they tried Quinine
aud other remedies, and that they failed till they
put on the pad ; since then they have had no more
Chills or Fever, aud they recommend them to ev

popular remedies, but only had temporary relief
until about three moutiiH since. I was induced, by
your agent, Captuin VV. It. White, to wour oue of
your "Anti-Marial Belts.” I have not had a chill
j since putting it on. It has enabled me to look
alter my farming interest more closely, aud ex

I hundred dollars.
1 cheerfully recommend it to all “shakers.”

Das. Love A Wjllhon:— Deur Hirs—l have been
1 having chills, caused from living in a malarious
! district, for seven years. During that time I
have taken oitnet of Quinine, with which I have
usually checked them for u while, but they have
invariably returned as soon as I would leave off
the use of the medicine. Having taken Arse
nic and HtHcbuthe, and nearly every chill
remedy I ever heard of. I procured, a month
since, one ( >t your “Anti-Malarial Belts,” whish I
have worn, and during this time I have had only
j one chill, which was brought on by being expoaed
:to night air aud getting wet. It has done me
! more good than all the internal remedies put to
, getber which I have taken in the past seven years.
