it denotes short life. - 92'

"ChANGE!"

The Grenada Sentinel of last
week, published at Grenada, Miss,
by j. A. Signaigo, who, we believe,
was a captain in the rebel army,
saws: .....
Change is written on the face of
our country-our own South espe-
cially-Our destiny is change. We
need consult no astrologer. Poljt
ical wizards have cast the horo-
scope, and all our people can now
do is to bow to destiny, accept the
situation, and apply their energies
to the working out Of the great hid
den problem of the future Of this
future, we may name three or four
things which may be manifest to all
observers. One is that there will
be great change in political Ideas,
Novelties and experiments will set
tie down into reality and perma-
nence. state rights will not be
what they once were. Parties will
be different; centralism will be the
tendency, and capital and enterprise
will sway votes by the hundred
thousand. Strange ideas III religion
and social life will make great pro-
gress, and men will be able to find
their drittings only. by consulting
the 'old fashioned Bible that lies on
the stand " if they don't let it lie quiet
there too long. There will be great
changes and progress in the appli-
cation Of machinery. The wide
prairies of Texas, and the plains OF
the great West will be walked up by
rafting trains and bowling locomo-
tives, and steam plows and saws,
and other wonders will transform
wildernesses to centres of trade.
The tide of population will roll
! over those vast regions, until emf
grafton and immigration will be a
dairy business. Our narrow objec-
tions to this or that policy and kind
of labor will be swept away. We
may advocate the policy of staying
at home, but many thousands of our
young men will feel that they have
no home, and to them life will be an
experiment and a speculation. En-
terprise and energy will be manifes
ted on every hand, and the UsEFTI
will be the great question. TIE
education Of the boys, and girls too,
now at school, should be eminently
practical. A utilitarian era is open
ing before them, and they should
be trained for success in the busy
hive and the strainiDg race. Math-
ematics, engineering, architecture,
natural science, mining, agriculture,
household economy-these with the
masses, must eclipse ornamental ac-
compiishments. Latin and Greek
will very properly hold their
authority with few, but must often
yie.d to such modern languages as
immigration shall render practical
necessity in our schools. In The
mean time land, labor and cultiva-
ted mind in the older States will not
go a-begging, but energy and indus
try will give assurance of success,
and he that looks the sharpest and
moves the quickest, will make the
most Roadway.

Mr.. A. T. Stewart, of New York,
is carrying his war with high prices
into the field of real estate. Not
only has he submitted himself to
enormous losses to break down the
war prices of cottons, but he now
sends round his agents to tell his
tenants that for the coming year
their rents will be reduced
to about twenty five per
cent. He is Of the opinion
that the time of war prices is
past, and has certainly taken a very
pointed method of proving that he
means what he says. We fear how
ever, that the example of Mr.. Stewart
will fall to the ground without its
due effect. There may be other
landlords willing to abate a little of
the hard bargain which they drive
with their tenants, but we have not
heard of them. ....
