wANTED-A GENERATION OF
WoRKINGMEN.

The humiliation of our system Of
labor, says the Norfolk Vlyiniaa,
renders it imperatiyely necessary
for us to resort to severe economics.
1 We must alter the style Of our dwell
lings to accord with our changed
condition and the circumstances
which surround US. Especially will
our kitchens have to be provided
With "all tho modern improve
ments," and so located as to be UNI
der the immediate supervision of the
mistress of the house. The farmer
will find it to his advantage to avail
himself more than ever before of la
bor-saving machines. And SO on
through every department of life !;
whatever will economize time and
labor must be studied and adopted
by our people as far as practicable,
The youth of the State must be
reared with a full knowledge of the
value of a manly self-reliance and
should be taught to work for them
selves When we cease to enter
tain extravagant and erroneous ideas
of the social dignity Of idleness
then, and not till then, will we
begin to build up our waste places,
as tho tritc phrase runs. This age
looks more and more every day at
results, and although the war sha
left us impoverished, although we
are oppressed with debt and taxa
tion, and struggle under most mi
quitous Constitution, still we have
resources within ourselves which a
race of busy workmen can develope,
and that, too, with the certainty of
aocumlating wealth and power. This
theory is not all Incompatible with
sound education for our boys in the
ordinary meaning ofthe term. They
can be students of books, and work
also at pillow, or the fargej with axe
and hammers and a recognition Of
the circumstances by which we are
surrounded teaches every thoughtful
parent in the State that the next
generation, to be successful, must be
able to work with their hands as well
as their heads.

Marietta Georgia, Friday Morning MarcI 60 1872.
A LIVING HEAp1Ess cH1cKHN

Mr.. George Forester, formerly
of Greene county, Alabama, had on
exhibition in this city yesterday,
says the Atlanta Sun, living roos-
ter chicken, whose head had been
severed from his body thirteen days,
having been done on the 9TH inst
This announcement may excite a
smile of the credulity from some, but
we brave ii, and will further affirm,
on the authority of Mr.. Forester
and his friends, that this fowl, in its
present mutilated condition, can
crow with perfect distinctness. The
explanation of this anomalous fact is
this It's asserted by Psychologists
and medical men, that some part of
the brain is Indispensable 10 life, and
that part which is generally suppos-
ed to support vitality and control the
breathing organs lies just at the
back of the head where it connects
with the nook. Just at this point,
in all probability, this chickens
neck was severed. Though, to all
appearance, the neck is cut off near
the shoulders, probably the neck is
contracted and drawn in, and must
undoubtedly hold some of that por-
tien of brain which supports animal
life, or else the theory that the brain
is the seat of life is exploded.

A GAME At CARDS.

This life is but game of cards
which each one has to learn each
shufles, cuts and deals the pack,
and each trump does turn. Some
bring high card to the top, and
others bring low some hands are
very flush of trumps, while others
none can show. Some shuttle with
a practiced hand and pack their
cards with care, SO you may know
when they are dealt where all the
leaders are.
Thus fools are made the dupes of
rogues, and rogues each other cheat,
aud he is very wise indeed who
never meet defeat. In playing,
some play out the ace, their count
ing cards to save; some play the
deuce, and some the ten, but many
play the knave. Some play for
money, some for fun, and some for
worldly fame, but not until the games
played out can they count up their
game.
When hearts are trumps we play
for love, and pleasure rules the hour;
no thought Of sorrow checks our
joys in beauty's rosy bower. We
sing, we dance, sweet music make,
our cards at random play, and while
our trumps remain on top our games
a holiday.
When diamonds chance to crown
the pack, the players stake their
gold, and heavy sums are lost and
won, by gamblers young and old
Intent on winning, each his game
does watch with eager eye, how he
may see his neighbor's cards and
beat him on the sly.
When clubs are trumps, look out
for war, on ocean and on land, for
bloody horrors always come when
clubs are held in hand. Then lives
are staked instead of gold, the dogs
of war are treed-as late throughout
our glorious land see clubs have had
the lead.
Last game of all is the spades
turned By the baud of time-he al
ways deals the Eclosing game in
every age aud cline. No matter
how much each man wins, or much
each man saves, the spade will finish
up the game and dig the players
graves.

WHAT TO DO WHEN IN TROUBLE.

Don't try to quench your sorrow
in rum or narcotics. If you begin
this, you must keep right on with it
till it leads you to ruin; or, if you
pause, you must add physical pain
and the consciousness Of degradation
to the sorrow you seek to escape
OF all wretched men, his condition is
the most pitiful who, having sought
to drown his grief in drink, awakes
from his debauch with shattered
nerves, aching head, and depressed
mind, to face the same trouble again.
That which was at first painful to
contemplate will after drink, seem
unbearablc. Ten to one the fatal
drink will be again and again sought,
till its victim sinks q hopeless pitt
full wreck.
Work is your true remedy. If
misfortune hits you hard, hit you
something else hard pitch into
something with a will. There's
nothing like good, solid, absorbing
exhausting work to cure trouble
If you have met with losses, you
don't want to lie awake thinking of
them. You want sweet, calm, sound
sleep, and to eat your dinner with
appetite. But you can't unless you
work. Ifysu don't feel like work,
and 60 to loaf all day to tell Tom,
Dick and Harry of your troubles,
you will lie awake, aud keep your
wife awake by your tossings, spoil
her temper and your own breakfast
the next morning, and begin to-mor-
row feeling ten times worse than you
did to-day.
There are some great troubles that
only time heals, and perhaps some
that can never be healed at all; but
all can be helped by the great pana
eca, work.

BRMlNGHAM.-B Birmingham, tn

BIRMINGHAM Birmingham, the
new city of Alabama, is attracting
the attention of capitalists Of the
whole country. A short visit to
that pleasant little city, unveils the
attractions that have brought it into
existence tbs situated in Jones'
Valley, between mountaios teemi1g
with iron aud coal of unparalleled
richness. The first house was erect
ed in June 1871, since then two
hundred dwellings, and stores have
hoen pat up, and about two hundred
more are under contract; besides q
wollen and a cotton factory.
The following railroads centre at
Birmingham: The Alabama and
Chattanooga railroad, flushed from
Meridian, Miss, to Chattanooga,
Tenn. tho South and North rail
road, completed from Montgomery
to Birmingham, and soon to be fin
ished to Decatur, Ala. the Savan-
nah aud Memphis railroad, from
Opel'ka via Birmingham to Pitts
burg Landing, on Tennessee river
the Mobile Grand Truok, from Mo-
bile to Brmin CHAM the Georgia
Western, from Atlanta to Birming-
ham thence westward to connect
with the Southern Pacific Road
All these roads are now in progress,
and will be built in very short
time.

-Athulsta plantation.

AS poison that seeks a latent path
to destroy an uususpecting innocent,
and with the wings of swift mortality
strikes its fatal blow without warn
ing, SO does the slandersr's venom

ears of sensationalists, who gloat
upon new theme for their morbid

the thoughtful man, he deplOres the
weakness of the slanderer and shud-
ders tor the poor wretch who must

NO HOME

There are thousands who know
nothing Of the blessed influences of
comfortable home, merely from
the want Of thrift or from dissipated
habits. Youth was spent in frivo-
lous amuscments and demoraizing
associations, leaving them at middle
age, when the intellectual and the
physical man should be in its great
est vigor, onervated and without
one Iaudable ambition. Friends
long since lost, confidence gone and
nothing to look to in old age but a
mere toloration in the community
where they should be ornaments.
No home to fly to when wearied with
the struggles incident to life no wife
to cheer them in their dependency ;
no children to amuse them, and no
virtuous household to give Aest TO
the Joys Of life. All is blank, and
there is no hope of succor except
that which is given out by the hands
Of public or private charities. When
the family of an industrious and So
Der citizen gathers around a Cheerful
fire of a wintry day, the homeless
man is seeking shelter in the sta
ton house or begging for nights
rest in the out building of one who
started in life at the same time, with
30 greater advantages but honesty
and industry bailt up that house,
while dissipation destroyed the 9TH
er.

The GULF STREAM.-There is a
river in the ocean. In the severest
drouths it never fails, and in the
mightiest floods it never overfows.
It's banks and its bottom are of cold
water. while its current is of warm.
The Gulf of Mexico is its fountain,
and its mouth is in the Arctic Seas.
1t is the Gulf Stream. There is in
the world no other so majestic a flow
Of water. Its current is more rapid
than the Mississippi or the Amazon,
and its volumns more than a thous-
and times greater. Its waters,
are SO distinctly marked that the
line of junction with the common sea
water may be traced by the eye.
Often one-half of the vessel may be
perceived floating in the GulfStream
water, while the other half is in the
common water Of the sea, SO sharp
is the line and the want of affinity
between these waters and such,
too, the reluctance SO to speak, on
the part of those of the Gulf Stream
to mingle with the common water OF
the sea. In addition 70 this, there
is another peculiar fact. The fish
ermen on the coast of Norway are
supplied with wood from the tropics
by the Gulf Stream. Think of the
Arctic fishermen burning upon THEN
hearths the palm of Hayti; the ma
hogany of Honduras, and the prec-
ious woods of the Amazon and the
Orinoco

TOUCHING.

A mother, few days since, found
a lost daughter in New York, under
circumstances showing that the girl
had fallen to the lowest depths of
vice, though all the good was not
crushed out, fer she was deeply af-
fected on meeting her mother. The
police officer who was present at the
meeting of the two kindly expressed
sorrow for the mothers tears, that
fell in shower, and attempted to
console her. "Ohs sir" said the
mother, "these are not tears Of sor-
row; they are tears of joy at again
seeing my darling child. She is my
own, with all her faults" Could
anything be more touching than that
forgiveness of her mother, who could
weep for joy at finding her child,
who, in every sense, seemed lost
There is a lesson for fathers who
discard daughters and sons on slight
provocation; that lesson teaches
that parents nevershould repela child
