la <>t|r Hail*> ’* pHt>cr<i|>pfurcd an
urtfefeua4e# ttcAlwie SUptlh# which
wo Ihlnk it due to our readers to
criticise, since nouo of our corres
]NUdeutM huve neeri fit to do so. We
think it is tumbled in error and tin
substantiated by filets, though writ
ten with originality and force. We
agree with our correspondent in one
thing, vis: "The South regarded
character as the criterion of civiliza
tion and the Nort h regarded num
bers and in at*'rial wealth,” and we
think tills deference to mere num
bers, and tile slender hold allowed to
minorities. Is the greatest defect in
our republican form’of government
as interpreted by the party in power.
We need some rofnedy like that un
written law Ur'England, that when a
ministry is hot Yn accord with the
people as represented by Parliament,
said ministry should he changed. We
do uot agree in the opinion that the
result af the war in itself would have
been different hud we enlisted our
slaves as soldiers ami emancipated
them for services rendered. It would
have been a wise policy to have
emancipated them in view of the
after results of the war, hut even In
that ease they would have been more
serviceable In the corn and cotton
Held than in that of battle. And the
chief reason for tills assertion is be
cause of their extreme ignorance und
their long servitude. Nothing is so
important In war as deoipline, and
the better educated the troops the
more perfect is deeipllno. The very
reverse of all that the writer
on ‘‘Public Schools” has asserted
with regard to ignorance being u sol
dlery Virtue is nearer the truth. His
assumptions are not based on facts.
Russia, with 40,000,000 serfs, and no
system of public education, was de
feated by England and France main
ly because these latter nations were
betteroducuted and better disciplined.
Italy succumbed to Austrian rule un
til Count Oavour’s il ra.iuriiurntH in
troduced liberal statesmanship based
upon more progressive education.
Even then it required the aid of more
enlightened France to effect the uni
fication of Italy under Victor Eman
uel. Where Ignorance reigns, the
people and governments are weak,
and crime wields the utllatto of the as
sassin, or declares the leiyMta of the
bandit. Witness the Poll tilleal States;
witness Catholic Spain, The crown
ing evidence of the military power of
education Is the kingdom of Prussia.
No country ever possessed ns strong
a bureau erntic Government, which
forced the parents to force their chil
dren to attend the public Schools,
This, lu Prussia, Is us much a law as
that crime shall he punished or regi
ments drilled. Wo see this little
Kingdom suddenly leaping forth,
armed fertile encounter by prepara
tory schooling, until she absorbs her
sister provinces und crowns a King.
Persistent In her efforts to excel by
perfect. teaching und consummate pa
tience, one decade succeeds another
until the opportune moment arrives
to declare for German unity, und, by
sheer discipline, born of popular edu
cation, site forces the North-Germnus
to an alliance and humbles Austria.
The King is crowned Emperor, and
still the chief element, is to educate
each child at the expense of thoHtute,
that lj 0 may servo twenty or more
years as the Soldiers of the State.
It was the lack of discipline among
the owiein and hmirrjroUv— the lack
ot allegiance to Napoleon 111, l>y the
ft i’tte uuftlme, which caused France
to lose the Empire and Germany to
gain an Emperor. Education in
France, though less perfect than in
Prussia, was more perfect than in
Austria or Italy, llut numbers will
prevail; and the French army at Se
dan failed from the same cause that
the Confederates surrendered at Ap
pomattox Court House. “Overcome,
but not uouqunreii,” was Gen. Grant’s
speech to Gen. Lee ns he received the
sword of grander Captain than Von
Moltfce, or the peer of Washington.
The proximity of contending na
tions is the cause of the speedy end
of wars In Europe. But it is lu a
moral aspect that popular education
concerns us in the South. Statistics,
the would oVKii, prove that crime is
proportional with popular ignorance,
just as fewer men are killed in battle
In proportion us the munitions ot war
become more effective and more dead
ly. The mongrel nations of South
Amur ion became “mongrel” by neg
lecting this absolute Deed of the last
half of the XIX century—popular ed
ucation sustained by taxation. We
would only limit it in the South to
the taxation of each race to educate
Sts own people, sinoo the present bur
dens are borne almost exclusively by
the whites iu the South who are ter
ribly impoverished themselves. But
no part of this continent so demands
upon Its intelligent citizens universal
interest In the great question of tree
public schools as the Southern States.
Educate the negro uot to vote against
his own interests-educate him not
to be led, like a drove of mutes, into
following one white horse, though
that horse be the veriest Radical un
hung. Educate him to see beyond
to-day, and to know that justice can
only be administered property by in
telligent officers. If we can once give
him the iuceutivo to acquire proper
ty, that he may receive education
free, lie will speedily improve as a
citizen intellectually, morally and
11 n line tally. Slavery lilted him to
cam his living; let his earniugs fit
him for freedom without crime, which
is the eomi>anton of ignorance.

Atlanta, ©a., Sopt, fith, Uffn.
gftt.tnni CiAuihlku Daily Titian:
OjCmeijfell- I have en recently
; in (he Columbus and Atlanta papers
, a cobskwrable amount of discussion
jin regard to tho extension of the
i North ft South Railroad to Atlanta,
deflecting It from Rome, its original
j destination.
i Now, Air. Editor, as a native of
i Columbus, which city is very dear to
i mo, 1 um rtiore than interested in
i her welfare, and as a poor devil, who
[ lias to make his bread out of rail
roads, my attention is ut once aroused
in anything thut concerns them.
If the country was in u condition
to support them, I would like to see
roads built in parallel lines twenty
miles apart over the whole State, but
unfortunately we are not In such a
condition.
Now that the Central of Georgia is
an oppressive monopoly none can
deny. That it makes ruinous dis
criminations against Columbus is u
fact latent to all; that it will con
tinue its present policy unless there
is some competing line built, and
end by making It u little second class
station, known as ths “Engle and
Phouix Depot,” it hardly takes a
prophet to foretell.
Even the wee burgh of EuTuulu is
making preparations to come in for
a share of your river trade, against
which one of your Columbus papers
enters a feeble and wuiling protest,
which sounded very much like the
childish expression of “she hadn't
ought to do it,” because wa of Colum
bus opened up that trade.
A sneer is a cruel tiling, though it
does sometimes open a man’s eyes,
rile his blood and make him alive
to the exigencies of the occasion.
But lam wandering from the sub
joc.l matter. Wnatl wanted to say is
this:
I have worked on tho construction
of half a dozen now rou Is in Georgia
and Alabama since the war, and tin
last one of them, with tlie exception
of the Macon & Augusta, is now in
the hands of a Receiver. This goes
to prove that the country, generall
sp taking, has more roads than It can
support, and that there are now lines
in ojKM'atiou that never ought to have
been built.
Even the Conti al Hoad is doing a
very poor business, and its grasping
avariciousness and desire to control
every line that connected with it lias
given it a blow which sent its stock
from above to far below par.
Now I do not see that another
oil to Atlanta would pay. If the
rood was built, most certainly Co
lumbus would reap the beneflt in tin:
way af low. freight*, but icfto will un
dertake to build it V is tho question,
Columbus can not and will not put
another dollar into any railroad. Hhe
has been treated too cruelly by them
already. Atlanta Inis u /lira Kith:
daltl hanging over her head, and while
it blown about the extension of the
N. AtS., fas it does about everything
that concerns Atlanta) it is not in
any condition, nor will it put a dol
lar in an enterprise which, in my
humble opinion, could not be com
pleted for less than one and a half
million of dollars at the lowest esti
mate. It is stuff to talk of the coun
ties through which the road would
pass, raising such mi amount.
Now, Mr. Editor, what 1 would
ask your opinion of, is this:
Would it. not lie better to ex
tend the road across the moun
tains toChipley and obtain that little
fifteen thousand bales that your pu
ller spoke of us having a sort of nat
ural tendency to slide into theOolum
bus warehouses, but. whoso owner.-
cannot afford to slide if, fin an ox
cart) over the obstacle known as Pine
Mountain? Fifteen thousand bales is
a big thing. Assure Columbus that
she will ho the gainer to that amount,
and I can e*> out' wurehuusernen
taking North & South stock to itic
amount of five hundred to u thou
sand dollars apiece, and pitying the
cash down for it, with a smile sweet,
childlike and expectant. But tho road
should not stop at, Chipley.
The Atlantese say: “Columbus is
afraid to extend tho North & South
Railroad to Atlanta. The cotton in
the counties to the north ot her, which
she now gets, would come to us; like
wise the trade of those counties."
Tf the Atlanta A West Point Road
ts not controlled by the Central Com
bination (I have been so long absent
from the State that I am behind ou
railroad matters), nor likely to be,
Columbus can obtain her object of
competing lines by extending the
North & South Road to LaUrange.
From that point it can, some
day or other, when the times are
better bo extended through tho great
mining region of Georgia, connecting
at Rome and Chuttunoogu with other
lines and coming into competition
witli the State Road. In my opinion
Columbus would lose more trade than
she would gain by the extension to
Atlanta. Prom latOrnngo she lias
very little to fear. I behove that if
your citizens will look at this matter
iu its proper light they will come to
the conclusion that private subscrip
tion sufficient to build ttie road from
its present terminus on to LaGrunge
can be raised outside of the next
twelve months. The exact cost of
the extension, if not already made
out, can be obtained from the field
books of Maj. Woods, a most excel
lent engineer, who made the survey,
and they should be found in the en
gineer's office of the North X South
i Road.
Money I know is very scarce and
tight, but to my eyes the condition of
Columbus is dcsperflle, and unless
something is done to break through
the net woven by the Central, which
controls even its natural outlet, viz.:
the river, your city is bound to retro
grade, though your factories will
always make it at least a "getting off
place" on the Southwestern Road,
when the machine shops are moved.
I know that the amount saved iu
the way of freight to shippers will
amply fbpnyAhe interest on the mon
ey Invested in the Nortli & South,
j even if there Ip neverany other return
: for It.
Let, the citizens of Columbus open
their eyes and investigate tills matter,
' The Stute of Georgia I believe has
possession of tiie road at the present
time, but it would be charmed to get
rid of it on the easiest of terms.
lam a working man ami have to
make rny living by work, and my
time Is money to me, but I’ll give the
road one month of my services freely
and without any expectation of any
future reward, if your citizens, in
sufficient numbers to ensure the com
pletion of the rood to LuGrange, will
either give one month of I hair time or
its value in money. If they would do
this and go to work, Columbus would
be oue of the first cities lu the South.
I have no fear of being called upon
to fulfil what I have said, but one
thing is certain, Mr. Editor, and that
Is this, if your citizens are determined !
to make a village of a city, let them |
sleep only a little while longer ami]
their success will be amazing.
Yours, very truly,
H’Eoabt*.
Railroad rivalry in Kansas City
has involved a reckless use of words
tiy the agents in their advertise
ments: “Now the blood does gush,”
says tiie St. I.oiis, Kansas City &
Northern ; “having knocked tin- wind
clean out of some folks on extraordi
nary low rates, we beg to call atten
tion to the second chapter.” The
Chicago & Alton remarks, “With Vi
sor down, not a spot on our armor,
and lance on a dead line for the
heart, we charge to the fore.” The
Hannibal & Bt. Joseph responds, “Is
that a dagger? No, mylord.it is a
prod, and with it we make the weak
backed hump themselves. We strike
right to the con- of the great com
mercial interests of the New West
with the following bed-rock freight
rate.” "Talk is cheap, promises are
fragile, and the wind can blow,” lx
.mother announcement; "hut we talk
not, neither do we promise or blow.
We p roceed to business, stick to bu
siness, and mean business every hour
of the twenty-four. Chalk it down
on memory’s tablet.”
iTissuid of Miss Hulett, a lady
lawyer of Chicago, that she is gaining
a successful practice, and that she
appears in tins various courts with
ease of manner and eonlldence, and
with an ability decidedly above the
average lawyer. She is ready and
able In debate and is never taken by
surprise.
The City of Baltimore has an ordi

A man smuggling tobacco from Bel
