THE TEST OATH.

As some of our friends think that
those whose disabilities have been re-
moved will be admitted to seats in Con-
gress we give the following advice from
the address of the Democratic Senators
and Representatives of Congress in July
last:
''Do not risk the loss of Senators or
Representatives by electing men who
cannot take the fesi oath or who are I'M
der the disability imposed by the l4th
Amendment" Members of either house
of this class will be excluded
The test oath should not be applied to
those whose disabilities have been re-
moved; but it is discretionary with the
radical Congress.

Few matters at this time can be re-
garded as of more importance than the
character of the State representatives.
soon to be elected by the people. A
multitude OF errors are to be corrected
and the policy Of the State Government
so remodeled that instead of being the
means of feeding horde of corrupt po-
litica cormorants it shall be devoted
solely and entirely to the promotion of
the general welfare of the people. In
selecting representatives or officials we
should ignore all individual preferences
all ambitious aspirations of individuals
and insist alone upon honesty, capac-
ity and fidelity to the people, to deter
mine our choice.
We commend with pleasure the SEN
sible and patriotic article in another
column, from Mr.. Mcintosh, to the con-
sideration of our readers. 1t is of the
highest Importance that we should not
only recover the control of our domestic
affairs but that we should control then
wisely.

THE editor of the Rome Commercial,
who has lust returned from a visit to
Chattooga county, says:
The corn crop of Chattooga is the best
crop that we ever saw anywhere. -
Enough corn will be made there this
year to support the county fot four
years. We heard one man offer to sell
500 bushels at 80 cents in the heap. The
cotton crop is not so good. The rains
have hurt it considerably. 1t does not
boil out free and full. The population of
Chattooga county by the last census is
100000 whites and 1000 colored-
There are about 1920 voters-200 col
cred and 1000 whites. Hence this
county viii roll up arousing Democrat
ic majority. The wealth of the county,
real and personal estate, is about ST.
100000.

RAILROADS.

We learn that large quantities of Corn
can be engaged in Dawson and other in
accessible counties at twenty-five cents
per bushel. All other products are af-
feeted in like manner by remotencss
from market. For this reason, and it is
unanswerable, we approve Of all State
aid given for the construction of Rail
roads, and we hope soon to see them
ramifying every section Of the State
1t is nonsense to call them local routes.
Lower Georgia would be as much benc-
fitted as any part of upper Georgia in a
cheap interchange of trade and the
whole State would soon vastly increase
its wealth and population when every
portion is brought in close proximity to
market. Go on with your State aid
1t is one thing in which the Agency is
making good investment for the pco-
pie.

TIE NEW ArHnER or EUROPE.-Thc

which Presso, in defensive VA, may
now shrink from graphing, is the naval
power Of England; but f. gland can do
nothing to prevent ii if Prussia resolves
to determine for herself the future cast

COLLEGE OR NO ooLLEeEP

"That's the question y
Many conflicting views are held on
the subject of building a Female Col
legc in Marietta. l desire to present a
few thoughts on that subject.
First say we ought to build the
house upon such basis and by such
means as that the citizens would all feel
common interest in it.
To do this | think that each property
holder in the white population of the city
should be allowed to express by ballot a
willingness or unwillingness to be taxed
for the purpose of raising the funds re-
quisite for putting up a suitable build
ing. persons Of color should not be
taxed and therefore ought not to vote.)
If the vote is favorable to taxation
then the Council should issue bonds to
be paid in six, eight or ten annual in
stallncnts each bond having its proper
tionate part paid every year; this kind Of
bend can be readily converted into
money.
NC udiuItS SHouiu bG 5lliCtlJ q COI-
lege building and no provision made for
residence of any member Of the faculty.
This college building thus provided
should be rented at a small but reason
able price to a thoroughly competent
man elected by the Trustces) qualified
to fill the Office of President of tho Col
lcge. { ! pause here to say that in my
opinion the present incumbent would be
the man to fill the place efficiently
There should DO only seven Trustees
and they should be elected by the per-
sons taxed to build the house. No per-
son should be employed to teach in the
College without the actual endorsement
Of the Board Of Trustees. If public
college building without endowment is
granted to any man without rent, it will
soon go into dilapdatiop.
The oaly other way, than the above,
to build college, is.for an energetic man
who is himself teacher, to bald il with
his own funds, for his own use, with the
knowledge that his own bread depends
upon tic success of his school.

InH present month will be fruitful of
political events. Elections were held
in two States, viz: California and Yer
mont the 9th, and Maine will vote on tho
18th. On the first the Republicans and
Democrats held conventions to nominate
candidates for Congress in six States,
and other conventions, State, County
and Congressional, black and white,
male and female, will follow in rapid
succession. The prospect in all the
States is exceedingly favorable to the
Democrats, who have only to keep unit
ed and make good nominations to secure
many and important victories.

TIE pRUssIAN GOVERNMENT.

Since Sparta, there has been no in
stance of system so purely and entire
ly military as that which prevails in
Prussia. At the age Of Is every male
is required to enter the army, where be
remains three years, and is then put in
to the rescrye, where he is liable to be
called upon at a moments notice. In
the last twelve years, during which this.
system has been in operation, the whole
male population under 30 have been con-
verted into standing army. BY CON
tinuing the system, in a few years more
every man must become a drilled and
disciplined soldier, ready to take the
field al the summons Of his master. 1t
is the fcudal system revived, intensified
and made to embrace the whole adult
male population The King is absolute
master, and all his subjects owe him
gratuitous service whenever lie chooses
to demand it. In the presence of such
a system, ncishboring nations have no
alternative but to adopt it if they would
maintain their autonomy.
In the personal character of the IIoh-
enzolcrn there is nothing to quiet and
re-assuro Europe. There has never
been one of the race who had any pre-
teniions to the character Of gentleman.
From first to last they have been mon
stcrs, imbecilos or madmon. Filled with
an inordinate idea Of their own impor
lance, they regard other men as brutes,
and women even as inferior to brutes.
The present Crown Prince, from whom,
having married an English lady Queen
Victoria's daughter better things might
have been expected is no exception to
the dominance of racc-instnct, and is
said to have betrayed it by kicking his
own wife down stairs.
