The two railroad depots in Montgomery. together with machine shops, and nearly all the rolliug stock, were destroyed in the last days of the war. The energy displayed, however, in reftting and restocking them has been commendable. At the West Point depot neat and well arranged building is rapidly going up, which combines many comforts for those who wish to take tho trains. and much convenience for the railroad company. The passengers who go out on the Alabama and Florida railroad, now get on the cars at the West Point Depot, and for the present it is not likely that another depot building will be con- structed The offices of the west Point road are in the old Murphy warehouse, and of the Alabama and Florida road in the winter iron works building.

TnE LABOR SYSTEM IN MIDDLE GRoR-

TIE LABOR SYSTEM IN MIDDLE GHoR- GIA.-An intelligent gentleman, writing to the Augusta Constitutionalist on this subject says:
 It las become evident that the older sec- tions of Georgia, especially the .'Black Belt, |" as Middle Georgia was formerly called, will in the course of a few years, be drained not only of their surplus labor but of that which will be necessary to the cultivation of the soil. Without any interposition of the Freedmen's Bureau, such result must sooner or later be consummated. Following the immutabe and irresistible law of supply and demand, free labor will go where it is most valuable. On the rich prairies of the West, and on the al- luvions of the Mississippi, negro labor is more profitable and better in other respects than white but on the lands of upper Georgia and throughout all that hlly and healthy belt which extends between the mountains and the Slow country" from Virginia to the Missis sipp1 white labor must take the place of black, and as the Freedmen's Bureau only hastens the emigration of the negro westward, so 1t becomes those who wish for the future welfare and prosperity of Georgia to hasten, so far as in their power, the filing up by white emigration of the vacuum caused by the departure of the blacks.

LEARN A TRADE Teach your son to work to work with his hands-to combine muscular power with brain power, and he will seldom turn thief, vagabond or vagrant The great misfortune with majority of our young men IS that they have been taught no regular trade or employment. They now feel sadly the want of this useful training. Impress boy with the value of time, teach him some honor- able calling, however humble, and if he has the man in him it will develop itself in time He will teach himself, fom observation and association with the best class of persons who always recognize and appreciate true merit-to be, and not merely to appear to be gentleman. The silly notion, so prevalent heretofore in this country; says, the Atlanta (Ga.) New Era, that physical labor is inconss- tent with good breeding must now give way | to moro practicable, more sensible. and more healthy sentiment. We will then have fewer forgeries. fewer gamblers, fewer drunk- ards and consequently less demand for space
 in our State Prisons. We will have more l workshops, more factories; more schools, more and better filled churches, and a more thrifty
 selfreliant, intelligent hardy, and entcrpris- ing population.

The South respect fully asks to move one way or the other We are like the fellow that was forced to % to the show, and then not allowed to go any further than where he had paid for his ticket We have been dragged into the doorway of the Federal tent, and are not allowed to see any Of the performance except to settle with tax collectors We can hear the animals growl- ing inside, and the cracking of the ring maste's whip, but we can't see the show un- less we pay for two, and take in a colored lady And the worst of it is, they keep great eagle perched over the entrance, which, if you at tempt to go back, swoops down upon you and picks hole in your head. We justly think tLis is unreasonable; they ought either to let ns pass in or refund our money and tie up the eagle.

"A letter from the widow ofthe lamcnted hero, Stonewall Jackson, will be found in our supplement. It will be seen that she corrects the misapprehension that she is in condition to suffer from want of the comforts of life. A kind father extends over her and her child paternal care. Still she is dependent, and the country of Stoncwall Jackson would have her independent Tn her own right and for this reason we hope the good intent ions of the Southern people to honor the great hero by substantial compliments to his family, will not cease on the appearance of Mrs. Jackson's modest letter.-Macon(G Ca.
