A lazy man’s churn has been invents ed in Vermont. It is adjusted to a wag*, on, and all a man has to do is to drive down after the mail, and when he gets back the butter has come. Mr. C. 11. C. Willingham will in a short while assume control of the Standard & Express at Cartersville, and will conduct it as the Cartersville Ex press. With Mr. Willingham’s known ability as a journalist,the people cf Car ters ville may expect the Express to be a paper that will take the lead in this section. Rome, we kuo,v will regret to lose Mr. W.’s services. Ti e Savannah News says: Phila delphia is at work to get the fare re duced on hacks and passenger cars, in view of the Centenn al. This, says the Washington Chronicle, “is very com mendable ! But the idea is not abatis doned at all as regards living, that all who go there with ideas like princes must pay like princes. Who wishes to boa commoner ip Centennial year, we should like to know ?” There are a great many Southern commoners who have neither ambition nor the means to air themselves at the big Philadelphia show, “like princes.’ Loyal shoddy dead-heads and pickpock ets will have a good time at the Centen nial, but sensible people of the South will find it equally pleasant and much more economical to celebrate the fourth of July next year at home. Peterso.’s Magazine for Dccem ber has two splendid steel plates ; a mammoth colored fashion plate; ti su perb colored pattern for a slipper; and nearly fifty wood-cuts of fashions and patterns. The stoiies are by the very best authors, all powerfully written.— Eor 1876, in addition to the 100 shorter stories, five copyrighted novelets are an nounced. The terms are astonishingly low, viz : Two dollars a year, postage prepaid by the publisher* The prices to clubs are cheaper still (postage also prepaid), viz : Three copies for $4.80, with a superb mezzotint (21 inches by 36) “ Christmas Morning,” the finest and costliest over offered, to the person getting up the club; or six copies for SIO.OO (postage prepaid), and both an extra copy and the premium engraving to the person setting up the club.

The Phrenological Journal and Life Illustrated for November is filled with reading, scientific, social, literary, each class being at once exceedingly inters estfng and instructive. We notice first, an appreciative sketch of Mrs. Celia Burleigh, the welKknown author, lees turer, and minister, with a fine portrait. Another short paper give3 excellent counsel to “ Crumbling Dominies.” “Unsound Psople ” is the title of an article which treats of human nature Com the natural point of view. ‘The scientific aspects of ultimate questions in Phrenology are pretty thoroughly sifted in Vivisection in the study of Psycholo* gy. A Talk About Our Little Ones is a very pleasant article by a sensible writer. A sketch, richly illustrated, of Immortelles and Grasses is quite seas able. The flavor of The Two Predictions will be very acceptable. Besides these, Education of the Feeling, Rest, a poem, Gen. Joseph Garibaldi, with portrait, The School of the Future, Phrenology and Darwinism, Paul and Appollos,*A New Phrenological Organ, aud a varie ty of editorial, agricultural, and mento rial matter, all worth examination Price 30 cents—s3 00 a year.

Y John King of Tennessee is very busy asking questions about what has taken place during the past thirteen years. He had a farm in Tennessee in 1862. and the scldiers of both armies made themscives cordially at home on hispreui ises. So he removed with all his pro duce to a cave in the Cumberland Mountains. A storm threw down a rock which c osed the mouth of the cave Therein he lived thirteen years in the the dark, eating from his produce and drinking from a spring. The other day a railroad company, blasting for a tun nel, blasted him out. A Brooks county Granger tells the Quitman Reporter that he has sold one thousand bushels of corn this fall; for which he has realized one dollar per bushel; and he still has about one hun dred more to spare. In addition to the above ha has made four bales of cotton, and raised hogs, potatoes pinders, oats and cane in abundance. This is the product of a two horse farm, without any hired labor, bis two younger broth ers being his only assistance. He is a healthy, good-looking young mnD, about twenty-four years of age, and a candi date for matrimony. Corn is King. A few weeks since we noticed having • • seen an ear of corn raised in Sumner county which had 1,272 kernels show ing the remarkable gain of over twelve hundred told. Now there is lying on our table an ear of sound white corn, the seeds of which are smaller and more numerous —1,386. The rows are twen ty-two in number, and the grains in each row average sixty-three,giving the aggregate above stated. The possibility of this American ce real in our American soil has rot been studied with that scietific thoroughness which the importance of the subject de mands. The plant h much more valit rble for forage than for its seed or giain Last year a French farmer raised sixty five thousand pounds of green forage (maize or corn"' per acre. This crop was kept in pits in its gieen state, and fed to dairy cows through the winter at a large profit. No other crop paid so we.l. While studying a staple grain that yields with ommon care and cul ture thirteen hundred eighty-six fold on the seed planted,some may doubt wheth er there is as much blood-forming ele ments in the large stalks and leaves of the plant as in its seeds. Brought to the test in producing beef and miik, the yield is greater. Our corn changed into dairy products at the right time" in the growth of the plant will give the farmer more profit than other crops, if his butter and cheese are sent to Europe with cotton and tobacco to find con sumers. Corn is king, because there is more money in it than any other product of American soil, but, like French cultiva tion, we must bring advanced art and science to our assistance and learn to keep our be t fields, when green with this crop and the seeds begin to form substantially in that condition the year round, to feed green maize to ail grow ing animals yielding meats, horse-flesh and wool, as weil as milk, butter and cheese. Corn is our best capital. Plaut a gold dollar and see how long it will be before a stock bearing 1,386 dol lars like the parent seed can be harvest ed by the bullionist ?—Nashville Aider ican. The Earth’s Danger. -In the preface to his recent excellent book, “ The Abode of Snow,” Mr. Pndrew Wilson, well known as the author one of the mosts interesting works on the Chinese Empire, revives the old theory of M Adhemar that the eaith will topple over one of these days, and send the oceans sweeping over the continents. The theory is that owing to the greater preponder ance of water in the southern hemisphere the greatest accumulation ot water is round the south pule; when the accu mulation has reached a certain point,the balance of tie earth must be suddenly destroyed—the centre of sphericity abrubtly changed far from the centre of gravity, and the whole earth, almost instantaneously, must turn transversely on its axis, move the great oceans, and so produce one of these grand cataclysms which have begore now altered the whole face of the globe. Some very good physicians an 1 mathematicians have believed in this theory, which is not easily controverted, even if it be a false one. Better Than All —l r ou might nearly as well forget your churches,your academies and school houses as to for get your local paper. the local newspapers exert a greater influence than ali these combined. They speak to ten times the audience of' the local minister, and are read eagerly each week, by those who know nothing about modern Christianity, modern science, and modern education, except what they learn from their weekly paper. It ap proaches you just when you are in a mood to rec ive it,not at stated intervals, and each of its readers by the interest they take in it, are in a great measure the moulders of its moral, religious, and educational tone. —Xcic York Times. A California reporter, named Robert Eliis, got carried up in a balloon some years since by accident, without the pro fessional aeronaut. lie was a daring fel low. and concluded to keep on. lie dis appeared, and fur months nothing was beard of him. At last a hunter picked up this bit on the prairies “I am all right, and am having heaps of fun. I have found the valve cord, and can de scend whenever I wish ; but I am going to see the thing down to a fine point.” And shortly after the wreek of a balloon hanging to a tree, covered with leaves, and the si eleton of Rol'ert Ellis were found on the line between Nebraska arid Dakota. Trained Journalist .Sure Enough. Mr. A. Marschalk who is about to start a newspaper at Cartersville called Planter’s Advocate was literally born in a printing office, and cradled on an old fashioned press. He told us the tale as related to him by his parents, lie is a man fifty years of age, an excel lent and well educated priuter, and a reliable, truthful man. He says fifty yoars ago, his father was a poor young man just married, and had got hold of a little type and an old press of the most primitive kind, and gut a little room to put it up in. His wife lived in the office with him, did the cooking and washing there, and helped him at the case and press. He had no other assistance, and very little furniture, one bed, a couple of chairs, a skillet and oven and a little table furniture. Mrs. Mar sebalk’s confinement was rather prema ture, and the infant was wrapped in its swaddling clothes and laid* upon the bed of the press as there was no other place to put it. The boy was raised up a printer and received no education whatever, except from his parents and the types. He says hi3 father had for ty-eight subscribers and four exchanges. The subscribers paid mostly in provis ions, and the family relied upon the le gal advertising of the county and an oc casional job, for money to buy their clothing and pay for house rent, and yet they got along firstrate, and the Mar schalks were useful and valuable mem bers of society. —Neicnan Star. Iron at (he South. The Washington Chronicle rejoices that the irun interests of the South have been steadily developing since the war. Alabama boasts of.beiug the chief seat of the manufacture of hot-bDst charcoal iron, the furnaces being on the Selma, Rome and Dalton Railroad, from which point shipments to England have been made, and the iron sold at seven or eight pounds sterling per ton, The iron trade in toe South is furnishing steady employment to many hundreds of native whites and blacks, and a good many English, Scotch and Swedes. The South must furnish a very consider able part of the three million tons of non made in the United States. The number of furnaces now in blast and projected in South Carolina, North Car olina, Georgia, Tennessee and Alabama, count up fifty-four. Of these South Carolina has one ; North Carolina,elev en ; Alabama, thirteen; Georgia, five ; Tennessee, twenty-four. With large forests near the mines to produce char coal, and with the disposition to mine hard coal, there cannot be any doubt that the production of iron ere long will constitute a very heavy branch of indus try. Of a certainty all the material is on hand. Capital and enterprise will cause a rapid and profitable development. “ Over production ” is what is the matter, is it ? Contracting the panacea ! Well, the South and West produce mainly from the soil. The East produces from the workshop, when it rroduces any thing. There would not be so much over production there either, if the South and West had currency and credit facilities to buy of the East its manufactured and imported commod ities. Contraction in the South and West produces ligid economy, of a necessity. The longer contraction cotiuues the more the South and West economize. Eastern merchants and manufactures need not look for in creasing orders from out this way, there are more frilures East yet to come. None so blind as they who will not see. They will feel it in the East by and by. In England also. Grind on with the contraction mill. —Naslioille American. A Horrible Stoby. — We have heard of a very distressing accident occurring in Jack3m county, West Virginia. At a “ house raising,” as is customary on such occasions chickens had been killed by chopping off th ir heads. Two little sons of the owner of the house to be raised saw the chickens thus guillotined, and during the day concluded to repeat the operation. It was just at a time when the men were lifting a heavy log into its place. The fathei, who was holding one end of the log, casting his eyes towards the little fellows one of whom had the axe raised to sever the neck of his brother, let go of the log to have the buy, and it fell, killing six men, two instantly, the other living only a few hours. The axe fell before the father could reach the scene, severing the neck of his son. Thus were seven persons hurled into eternity in a twink ling.—Middleport ( 0.) Neics. Wedding journeys, like the practice of making wedding presents, according to the latest fashionable intelligence, is out of style. Happy and favored young men and women of the day ! Fashion, then, no longer requires you to make a shew of yourselves, and yuu can get married in peace. No lost time,no fuss, no crowds, no awkward groomsmen, no chalky bridesmaids, no marching up uisles, no execrable tunes, no splitting g-oves, no dropping ring, no kissing par sons, no carriage, no reception, no pres ents, no journeys, no expenses, no cards. Welcome and encouraging change. Praise wor thy Economy. —T h e llichmand Dispatch says : “ There are now about thirty students at the Uni versity of v irginia, who, by adopting the old army ‘ mess ” system, are able to save from eighty-five to two hundred dollais per session. And by having the bulk of their rations sent from home by the railroads which center at Char lottesville the cost can be still further reduced, and the advantages of a Uui uersity education placed within the reach of almost every young man who has the industry, perseverance and pluck to attempt it. The Board of Visiters have instructed the faculty of the Uni versity to increase largely the facilities for those who desire to mess ” “ Its, party tuff times,” replied a Detroit bootblack the other day, “ and Bill sayi they are to be still tuffcv afore spring. I’d go on the stage this winter, but 1 haiu’t no good clothes. I’d like to be cashier in a bank, but I ham’t high enough. I’ve thought some of being a lawyer, but they say that lawyers lie so. I guess if the weather holds bad Fil go to holdin’ an office of some kind at the City Hall.” A GRAND GEORGIA ENTER PRISE The Great Events of 12ie Coming Year No man o family should be without a newspaper. It is the most intelligent and entertaining visitoi to any house hold, and is the best of all educators. Besides this admitted fact there are now additional reasons for subscribing to a good newspaper. Perhaps no year of the past half century furnished a great er combination of important and thrill ing events than will the year approach ing The Presidential contest, the Gu bernatorial election, the Centennial and other great events transpire. As in the past, so in the future, THE ATLANTA CONSTITUTION, published at the capital of the State, will be foremost in the chronicling of all the news, political, commercial, agri cultural, religious, of legislatures and conventions. A Democratic journal, it i3 independent of all political or person al influences, and is free to devote itself to the best interests of the people of Georgia and the South. It is accepted throughout the Union as the represent ative paper of the State. The Consti tution is known as THE people's PAPER. It has attained a prosperity as such sec ond to no paper in the South. Asa family journal, containing political and literary reading, general news, stories, poetry,humor, and practical information, it is popular in many States. Additional features of interest have lately been adds ed, making it a still more welcome vis itor to every home. r ihe Constitution having been the means of opening up forth Georgia to the people ot this country as never be fore done, is now organizing an expedi tion for the exploration of the great OKEFENOKEE SWAMP, the t°rra uicognitia of Georgia. Sever al months will be devoted to the work, which will be o' service to the State, and mark an era in its history. Sub scriptions should be made at once to se cure lull reports of this expedition, which wiil furnish most, valuable inform ation and rich adventures. A marked featuieof the Constitution will be its depaituient of HUMOROUS READING, original and selected. No pains will be spared to make it equal in this respect to any paper in the country. In fine, the grave and the gay, the useful and tne entertaining, will be presente i to its readers. Upon a basis of assured pros perity, it will be able to fully execute all its undertakings. SUBSCRIPTION PRICE. The Daily Constitution is furnished, postage paid, at $lO 60 per annum, $5 30 for six months; $2 65 for three months ;$1 00 for one month.
