and that "there is no disputing about
tastes" lie a maxim too venerable for
us to controvert.
Still, we shall not advocate nor
countenance any factious opposition
to Mr.. Hayes administration.
Whenever, in our humble judgement
he acts rightly, we shall feel more
than pleasure in approving; when>
ever he acts wrongly, we shall not
be slow 10 condemning. 1t is in his
power, even on the perilous sminence
be occupies, to make himself the
first Of men, if he makes himself the
best of magistrates. Let him call
around him wise men, and give heed
to their counsels. He must Danish
the idea, If he ever entertained it,
that he can yndic0lise the South, by
giving offices to few--1uas' or 81
mon pure democrats, who, from
whatever motive may accept APP
poiutments from him. Throughout
the whole history of our Southern
people and it is the richest feather
in their cap-place>holders have
never controlled their action against
their honest opinions Our people
believe in truth and justice. They
ask for no favors, but demand their
rig hts. Democratic office holders
can not muster a corporals guard
into the Republican camp, against
the honest convictions of our people
of what is just and right. If Mr..
Hayes really means co"cili0tiom, be-
tween the sections, let him dispense
even handed justice between the
sections then "the era of good
feeling will come again." if the Rad
icals say ''yea."

WORK FOR A CONVENTION.

The Rome Courier is of the opin-
ion that the convention should en-
body in the new constitution laws OF
the following kind - one that all
the fraudulent and spurious bonds
should be declared null and void.
Counties, cities-and towns should
be restrained from the issue of bonds
or other evidences of debt, except in
settlement of existing debts.
The term Of office of Governor,
Judges Of the Supreme and Superior
Courts should be diminished one
half and placed precisely as before
the war-Governor two years,
Judges of Superior Courts four
years. This length of term was fix
ed at a time when Georgia had her
great men in the council of the
State.
The General Assembly should be
reduced. At all events the House
of Representatives should be reduc-
ed one half, and it can be done.
Biennial sessions of the Legisla>
ture. Every unnecessary office
should be abolished. All salaries
may be reduced.
1t may be best to limit the pay of
the members of the General Assem-
bly, to four or five dollars per diem.
Upright and intelligent men only
should serve as jurors.
Appeals should be allowed in JUS
tees Court to jury of five or sew
en- men, as before the war.
Local legislation should be pro-
hibited by the Constitution.
The homestead ought to be reduc-
ed at least one half, and that secured
so that it cannot be invaded or in>
terferred with by any process. Vest
the fee simple in the takers, until
the last one is dead or of full age,
and then descend to the heirs, if
any, and if none, revert to the es-
tate of the original owner.
Every person convicted of theft,
larceny, burglary, forgery, perjury,
fslse swearing or any other infa
nous crime, shall never be allowed
to vote, unless pardoned by the
proper authorities.

The Albany News has dis
tressing account of the damage done
by cyclone that passed through
the counties of Worth, Colquitt, lr~
win and Mithell, few days ago.
Plantations suffered greatly, houses
and fences being demolished, stock
killed, and several human lives lost.
A little daughter of Mr.. Thomas,
planter in Worth, was crushed by
falling timbers, and two ladies of the
family badly injured. In Irwin the
hurricane seemed to gather new
force, aud swept everything in its
course. On Mr.. Pate's place in that
country three persons were killed
outright, and from thence the cy-
clone passed into Colquitt and Miller
counties.

A SAD sight is witnessed every
day at the Presidential mansion in
the crowds of poor women, who
flock the aute>chamber, hoping by
personal appeal to President Hayes
to obtain employment in the public
service. Many of them have in the
last few days pushed their way into
the rooms where Mrs. Hayes re
ceiyes, and piteOusIy appealed for
her personal intercession in their be-
half. 1t has become so embarrassing
that orders have been issued provid-
ing for admission to Mrs. Hayes only
by card.

GRADED PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
NUMBgg II.


In the foregoing number of the Sc
ries upon this important subject, we
roughly outlined the labor saving
principle Of the graded school sys>
TEN. The success, however, of this
feature of the system greatly de-
ponds upon the superintendent; for.
supervision is a most important ele>
ment in the system, Going from
one class to another, and from one
department to another supervising
the work here and helping the teach
er there by simeir suggestion, the
superintendent st needs be a
practical man. e should be a man
quick to learn, aPasto teach, ready
for work in season and out of season.
So multifsrious are the duties of the
position that they cannot be pres
scribed. The superintendent will
build up or destroy the system, just
as he comprehcnds or fails to cons
prehend the duties Of the important
position to which he is called. We
will now show the financial economy
of the system. Here are three huns
drcd cducable youths. The SUBJ
divisions will be ABOUT as follows;
Primary pupils $50; Inferno
date 10; Grammar so; and High
School %. You employ superin.

A STRANGE BIRD STORY.

l.. Page and son, cutting wood neaI
San Jose, noticed ior several days that a
number of birds remained constantly
VI on tree near them, some going and
coming from time TO time. Upon cut
ting down the tree, they discovered a
limb with hollow cavity, some two feea
in length and three or tour inches In
diameter, in which were two full-growa
birds Of some goOdly-sized species.
There was small aperture tnronga
which the birds were supplied with ioJd
from their mates. The limit
was cut and the birds liberated. They
were neither of them able to fly, having
evidently never been out of their impris-
onment. How they came inside 10 q
question. 1t Is probable thai the m0ther
bird was small, and though able to make
her nest in the hollow OF the tree and
rear her young, could not extricats
them, and they did not gain strength
enough to help themselves until the h9l-
low had 80 closed that escape was i'm
possible. Those who examined the birds
think they are about two years old.
They had been fed from their birth By
their bird-fellows through the aperture

lily never exhlbited.-l San Jose (Cal.I

A CURIOUS BLOOD-TEST.

The scientific journals contain reports
of an investigation lately made by q
Philadelphia physician to determine
whether the blood which flows in ths
veins of all people is the same in kind
The doctor examined with the most per
feet microscopic apparatus at his com-
mand specimens of blood taken from the
bodies OF persons connected with the
foreign commissions at the Centennial
Exhibition, including Turks, Swiss,
Japanese, Italians, Negroes, Norwe'
gians, aud many others, and found tina!
the corpsucles were, for all practical
purposes, indistinguishable. Ii The
subjects from whom these specimens
were taken embraced the attendants on
some of the oriental booths, there il
reason to question the Importance OF the
Investigation; for, according to the story
OF au eminent traveller and man OF let>
ters who visited the Exhibition in the
early days, the ace-iifferentiali0u
among the larger parts Of The servitors
was brought about by an artistic applics-
tion of false color, yellow ochre and
haggy trousers.
