COMPOSITION.


This was the first instance where the
scholars were brought into tho school
room and taught in place Of the teachers.
We supposed Teachers Institutes" were
organized for the teachers and not for the
scholars, but we find we are mistaken
Miss Hatch has her class very we'll drilled,
though some OF them need to study the
spelling book little more We are not
sure, however, If that book is used mvcb
in schools now. We seldom hear of il.
After drilling her pupils three-quarters

sons for Monday, Miss Hatch dismissed
the class, and We were refreshed with

DIR, Robert Allyn then proceeded to say
something On the N fIFg '.L Il :.
PRACTICE AND THEORY OF TEACHING.
The Doctor though, the practice was
the main thing after all In order that
the pupil may comprehend, the teacher
must first govern himself, and then the
pupil. Another point was discipline,
which was very different from govern.
ment The teacher must be superior to
his scholars, in order to discipline teach
or govern them. 1t is not physical force,
that governs, but mind. One thing ne.
cessary was to improve the love of learn.

After the doctor was through with his re-.
marks, Mr.. Lever 1made some objections.

few anecdotes and instances Where teach.

WILL FARMING PAY,

In the densely populated sections
of the country and near large and in
the vicinity of extensive indus
trial enterprises farming is as re-
munerative as any other pursuit of
life; but away from this population
and these industries-away from
readily accessible markets and with
lands of moderate fertility as we
find the average in Georgia, can
farming be madel to pay3
A "HilI-side Farmer" in the last
number of the Southern Cultivator
answers in.the affirmative. He net
ted last year from his unaided labor,
on rented land $3.50 and corn enough
for another year, on common ridge
land, without fertilizers. This is a
very good showing for one year but
how would it work for a series of
years I 1t would not pay, of course.
The writer, however, suggests the
proper Systematic only system by
which farming can be made to pay
here or elsewhere. We must have
fertilizers and to secure these in the
most economical manner, we must
have stock and to keep this as it
should be kept we must have the
grasses in successful cultivation
When farmer secures this firm and
enduring basis of agricultural pros
perity his lands will improve-his
stock will be valuable and farming
be more remunerative as it should
be, than any other pursuit of life.

THE PLATFORM OF THE KEN
lucky DEMOCRACY

The kentucky Democratic State
Convention, which met last We'd
nesday at Frankfort, adopted among
others the following resolutions:
Third, That the preservation Of
liberty is possible only through the
States, and we protest against every
act by which States are deprived OF
this Just and constitutional power,
State tribunals are busted of their
proper and necessary jurisdiction. -
And we are ready to join in all law
full and just measures to reverse the
tyrannical act of the party in power
Of Government in great centraliz-
ed despotism.
Fourth. We endorse the address
recently issued by the Democratic
members of Congress, and unite in
condemning all acts by which I'M
constitutional and despotic powers
are conferred upon the President,
by which, with the use Of the army
and navy, the suspension of the writ
of hateas corpus, the power to de-
clare martial law, call out the militia
and invade the States without the
request of their executive or legis-
lature, and other underlined means,
he can destroy the freedom of cleo
tons, the independence of the judic-
larry, and the sovereignty OF the
States.
Fifth. Kentucky is unalterably
opposed to every form of lawlessness
whether committed under the cover
of unconstitutional enactments or
organized bands, and we pledge
ourselves, as occasion may arise, to
use every legal means to prevent the
one and to have enacted such laws
as experience may demonstrate to
be necessary to put down the other,
and to furnish protection to lite, lib
erty and property, under the laws
enacted by our own Legislature
and administered by our own courts.
The Marietta journal. [volume] (Marietta, Ga.) 1866-1909, 1871-05-12

The Baltimore Gazette says -
''Moro than a year ago it was
predicted, and the prediction has
been reiterated several times since,
that it was the purpose of tho domi-
nant party to retain the national
power, irrespective OF any decision
by the people at the ballot box
Then some credulous Democratic
journals affected to disregard the
warning,a as purely sensational. We
now see even neutral papers ac-
knowledging the prediction moral
certainty Hear what the Herald
says in this connection
"'A large amount of time and
space has been devoted to discuss
ing and explaining the character of
the Ku Klux bill. This is quite
unnecessary. A few words tell the
whole story. The measure means
simply this: If Grant is not re-
elected by the people, an attempt will
be made to keep him in power by
fraud or force, or both combined. ,"

MARnow GAUGE RAILROADS.

We published an article last week
showing the comparative cost OF con-
structing narrow and broad guage
Railroads, by which it was made
manifest that with the aid of the
State, it is financially practicable to
construct either of the lines charter
ed from Marietta. The cost of the
narrow guage is not over one-hali
that of the other and it is peculiarly
adapted to the region to be tiavers-
ed by these lines, and can be oper'
atcd more rapidly, run at greater
speed, with more safety and greater
profit than the broad guage Roads
The only drawback--and that is
unimportant-is in transhipment OIL
through freight, matter compare

just two ways deal with the Ku-
klux--lct them alone, and leave the
evils to be corrected by an enlight-
enea public sentiment, or pass Ku-
Klux bill that amounts to some
thing"
''You don't need any Ku-klnx bill
in Georgia, then?'
"No more than what we have got.
That thing passed by Congress will
amount to nothing here or elsewhere,
except to furnish campaign docu-
ment to the Democracy. They
were hard up for something Of the
sort, and it came in good time. A
| law is wanted that will strike home
to the mark where the Ku-klux ac-
tually exist, aud not general piece
of patchwork that will do no good
anywhere. In this State am sat
isfied we need no Ku-klux bill at
present. | am glad to notice a
healthy public sentiment growing up
here which will frown them down
Why, up in Chattooga county, not
long ago, two of them were actually
caught by the civil authorities, tried
and sentenced TO twenty years in the
penitentiary. Since then there has
been no more Ku-klux in that coun-
ty. That is the way to deal with
them. Some of the best citizens in
the county were on the jury, and
since the sentence there have been
no petitions for pardon. | call that
a healthy sign"
