An EnterprIsIng School boy o
In Georgia.
From the MAcOntGJ JOnrnall


There is q seyenteen-year old boy
living in county below us, who has
twenty-one acres planted in cotton.
He hired one man early in the spring,
prepared the land and bought about
500 worth of guano and put upon it.
After he got it planted ne started to
sehool, which he has regularly attended
during the summer, with the exception
of about two weeks, which lis crop re
quired. He works an hour or two every
morning. in the sfternoon, and every
Saturday. His sotton is looking very
fine, and be ezpects to get at Least 6f-
teen bales CT the twenty one acres.
Estimating Zach bale at 500 pounds,
and that he sill get twenty-five csntsy
per pound, the gross rereipts will be
Sl,S15. His eatire expense, including
the guano, will not be over $500-Fhich
will leave 81. .375 as the res earnings Of
the schoolboy. Give him the benefit
of every doubt, and he will surely make
81 600 clear. We commend thisl to
, young men moaning over their tate,
complaining tina: they can get nothing
to do, and can make no money.

4 change has come over the feelings of
the masses of Republicans of late, relative ,
to the chances of success in the present con-
test. What was the opinion of the few, has

the State. Il Is the VIII of the men who
saved the nation frcn destruction, to save it
from the hands cfits enemies again in No
'ember, and the detachment of the loyal
forces in California, means to conquer all the
'nrces ii California, means to conquer all the
'oes set against it. Intre is the utmost h4r-
nony and good feeling in ranks. 1t is
not to be doubted that a more fraternal feel
