Ii a man cannot make living in
town perhaps he may find what he
is looking for by going out into the
country.
This at least is the experience of
ole young man of Admission. And
this young man was making living
in town too-always had made it
and could have continued to do so.
But be wanted more out OF life than
living and SO took TO the country.
His name is w. NJ. VARY, who
until less than year ago, was in
the employ OF the Woodstock Iron
Company as book keeper. Last fall
he moved to . farm near Rome, Ca,
aad began at once preparing a por-
ton OF his ground for the production
of onions and onion sets. He set
apart three acres for this purpose
and prepared the ground in the
most thorough manner. He undere
stood chemistry sufficiently well to
know Just What fertilizers to use and
how much to use. He studied upon
cultivation AMI at the proper time
ne planted the three acres.
And the result,
Well, ne has raised from these
three acres
1900 bushels of onions sets.

Now figure for yourself. The
onions sets are Worth at the lowest
estimate three dollars per bushel.
And onions are worth one dollar

1T IS TWO SIDED.
Captain w. A. Starnes Talks About the
States COnvicts.

1t costs 63 cents a day to keep a
single Georgia convict, while farm
hands at S. month are plentiful.
So says Capt. Starnes, of the office
OF the principal keeper Of the peni-
tertiary, who has carefully looked
into the matter, and who has come
to the conclusion that the state has
the best of the transaction in the
convict lease system.
The figures were secured from
the camps Of Capt. W. B. Lowe, says
the Atlanta Constitution, containing
Cne- seventh of the entire number
of state convicts, scattered about in
Liberty, Dodge, Pierce and Wilcox
counties. The men there are fed,
clothed and treated similarly to
those elsewhere. They require an
equally proportionate number of
guards at SIS month and accom-
modations, and the cost of transpor-
tation averages up to that of the
other camps.
The statement was made apropos
of the suggestion that the state as
sumo supervision Of the county con-
victs.
'"The state" said Captain Starnes,
''has afforded its convicts the best
Of treatment. When a man needs
new clothes he gets them, if it's a
suit every month; they all have
vegetables and meat at least twice d
week and doctors are constantly in
attendance. This thing of working
state convicts on the roads won't do.
It's all you can do to keep them I'M
prisoned at Dade, and then change
would cost just 100000, The
states getting $3.50 a year for each
man now and it's the best thing she
can do. Nine-tenths are negroes
and Capt. Spinxs, across the Chatta-
hoochee, tells me he can get all tie
men he wants ON his farm for SIS a
month. This lease system is two>
sided. | began looking carefully
into it when it cost $100.30 to carry
four short term prisoners from
Brunswick to Dade."

TO contrive an appliance that could
be affixed to all steam whistles-the
doleful steamships fog-horn. the
shrek of the locomotive and the
yell of the factory steam valve
some arrangements in metal like
the calliopes they used to have on
Western river steamboats,, that
should transmute all these sounds
into sweet music, as in Poe's story
of the Due de POmelette, in which
the wales Of the damned are chang
ed to ravishing music, by passing
through magic wall. 1t is i1npos-
sIble to conceive OF the moral, as-
thetic and real physical benefit
that would inure to the world IRON
the adoption of this device. Why,
it would be like giving us at cnce c
million beautiful Old~World cathe,
dral chimes, pealing down their
benisons of peace upon the
tired nerves Of men. Think
how delightful for a workman to
be called to work by burst OF
music instead of by demon. shrek
And one would almost find amelior>
alton in being run over by a loco
motive, with strain of music for q
warning. Think of turning all the
steam whistles in Marietta into a
Belfry Of Bruges Ha! the idea
grows upon one. Altogether have
we been neglecting the aesthetic Of
the ear. The era of architectural
decoration is opening in America.

the cultivation of the music of the
landscape, al tresco music. But
stop, stop The thought rises UP
with terrifying power: perhaps the
horrors of poor music whistles, Of
the hand'organ stamp, would prove
infinitely worse than the present
state ofthings. Let US go softly and
sure then, lest our latter end be
worse than the first.

Iffree silver coinage shall be re-
garded by congress as a necessity,
let it come but let it come with
equal and exact justice to all; to
producers, to government, and to
people, Let the standard be fixed
on ratio at least approaching the
intrinsic value of a dollar, and let
the cost of mintage to the silver
producers be the precise difference
between the value Of the bullion
and the legal tender value of the
coin exchanged for it. This would
put silver producers upon exact
equality with all other industrial
people Of the land. 1t would be
simply common justice to the silver
men, common justice to every other
industrial interest and common JUS
tice to the government. Until the
silver cause shall be brought into at
least near approach to the standard
of honest dealing with the govern
ment, there can be no silver legisla-
ton that can meet the united APP
prevail of the silver champions and
of the country.-Philadelphia Times

The strong character is not that
one which in trial spends the hour
IN complaint, Incorporate language,
or outrageous temper, but the one
which at all times maintains self
poise and quietness. 1t defends the
hight and denounces the wrong. On
moral questions it is absolutely fear
less, but under great provocation
and stress of circumstance it has
power to be still. Such strength is
sublime. 1t is godlike. 1t acquires
no strength to- denounce another.
A Billingsgate fsh-wife can do bets
ter than you. Is sha therefore
stronger So to, pirate much of self,
to show inordinate selt>conceit, to be
obtrusively loud" by word or
laugh, to assume superior wisdom,
to help others with pstronizing air
these are the very best proofs OF
weakness. Our largest men and
women character.wise-are quiet.
modest, unassum!ng, and patient.
They are not laxative. They know
how, with Gods help, to overcome.

The great Mexican volcano of
Collma is again IN state of erup.
ton, as it was about this time last
year, and the earthquake shocks
consequent upon its activity have
once more raised CONSERVATION in
the state of Jalisco. This volcano
is more dreaded chan any other upon
the American continent, and the
people living within it's range yet
entertain an old superstition that
the world will be destroyed by it.
1t was supposed to be extinct for a
long term of years prior to 1869,
when it began to smoke and pour
forth vast quantities of pumice stone
intensely heated. Since that time
its eruptions have been numerous
and alarming, and in recent years
large numbers of people have re-
moYed from its vicinity. 1t has not
often created greater apprehension
than that which now prevails. It's
mouth is in the clouds, more than
two miles above the adjacent plain.

VERY few people know that Meth
er turtle, tortoise, nor toad is
provided with teeth. There is q
general superstition that a turtle
can bite off a mans finger. but the
turtle can do nothing of the kind.
Its jaws are very strong, and the
horny membrane that runs round
the jaw, where, in other animals,
teeth are found, is so hard and
tough that the turtle can crush the
bones of the hand to pulp, but as for
biting of even " finger, the feat is,
to the turtle, an impossibility.

The most remarkable work in
Australia is the overland telegraph
from Port Darwin to the south of
the continent, which was completed
in 1872. Almost the whole 1000
miles of its length was through an
uninhabited country-much of it a
waterless desert. The wooden poles
we're prepared at the nearest avail
able places, but some had to be
carried $50 miles, while the iron
poles were taken an average dis
lance of 400 miles by land. Over
1000 tons of material had to be
carried into the Interior, and the
total cost was 100000.

Both Rivers Falling At Pittsburgh Lat"

The following dispatch to tho INTEL

parutivcly in good shape:
All danger OF a Hood is passed. The
rivers are now falling and the leo is
moving out to tho satisfaction OF tho
river mcn ~ well 0s the owners Of
property along tho streams. The only
damage was on the Allegheny river
near the sixteenth street bridge and
was caused By an immense quantity Of
snow, ice and debris floating against
the lumber RATS OF kopp ana NoCgtlY,
moorcd Mt that point. The heavy lines
wero cut in two and the RATS were swept
down tho river. When tho wreciagc
reached the coal floats OF Hartley aud
Henderson, II coal boat partly filed with
coal was wrecked and sent TO tho bot.
tom Of the river. A coal float to which
tho beat wac attached was also badly
damaged. Tho loss is estimated ut
$50, 900.

morning II was noted that IL had rot.

Tho Allegheny rivor between Free.
