Far bevond any text book for use in
the schools is a method of education that
will train a child to use all its faculties,
to express itself correctly, to think clear
ly, and to observe for itself. This teach
ing cannot be left for the finishing of
the high and grammar schools. It must
be put in before the age of 10. It must
begin with the youngest class. That
child is much better fitted to make its
way in the world who can frame a clear
sentence in reply to a question, or can
describe plainly what it saw, or what it
likes best to do on a Saturday holiday,
than if it had all the cut and dried ques
tions of the text book, or even the more
deceptive formula of an oral drill by
heart and to order. Words and things
are the two pillars of the school edifice;
yet, instead of intelligent use of words
and the observant knowledge of things,
too much of the precious early school
time is wasted in the absurd memorizing
of rules, which are neither words nor
things in the true educational sens:'.
We are sure that the tescUers ol our
public schools, who have been too long
hampered by the old ideas that "rules,"
grammar rules, arithmetic rules, spelling
rules, phonetic rules, etc., are the first
and essential lessons for the eager young
intelligence or the dull vacuity of a
''backward" child, will gladlv welcome
a new order of things we are confident
that a general order which allows each
teacher the freedom of her class will be
most grateful to all who have interest
and euthuiasm in their calling.

The Sunny South! How little can
those whose live have fallen even in
pleasant places "due North" realize the
indefinable charm of the Sunuy South ;
its soft and caressing climate; its vivid
and wondrous vegetation; its peculiar
and attractive scenery; its winsome and
gracious people 1 So new is it, yet so
old, so much of the polish of the aMSfM
rtfime, with just enough leaven of the
rush of the nineteenth century to add a
special and pungent piquancy. That
the South was dear, very dear to me,
goes without saying; that I longed with
a "precious yearning" to revisit it, an
abiding desire; and when the hour in my
busy life arrived that set me free for a
brie! holiday I realized how delightful
was the respite, even though its dole of
days was oi niggard and paltry measure.

inexorable swiftness,and can but jot down
the flotsam and jetsam eddying upon the
BOW full tide of my memory. Among j
my most pleasurable reminiscences a j
visit to Beauvotr, the stately home of j
Jefferson Davis, is cut in boldest relief.
I'cauvoir is a stately man -ion, remind
ing one ofan old Knglish home. It is
approached by an avenue of superb and
venerable trees. At the gate, in a spirit
of true Southern courtesy, Mrs. Jefferson
Davis awaited us. Mrs. Davis is statues-
nil' and stately. Her elegantly shaped
head sits upon her shoulders as though
biseled bv Phidias. It is so exquisitely
touted that one cannot refrain from gaz
ing, white her every movement is the
impersonincation of dignity and grace.

lose-fitting black dress, with its Wat-

to caress it. She wore no ornaments
whatever, save the circle of gold on her
fine and shapely hand. Her manner is

ami the proceeds, appropriated to cliarit

tions. Col. Falkner i a wonderful man.
Vivid and romantic as is his imagina
tion, he surpasstnl himself in preparing
the Lost Diamond. It is said the play
reflects credit upon the drama, and is
worthy of repetition in the first theaters
of the conntrv. No entertainment ever

profitable. Wo understand it is to be

After a delightful chat, Mrs. Davis vol
unteered to show us her husband's study
the workshop in which he tinned the
"History ot the War and in winch he
passes so much of his waking hours.
I his sanctum is a veramneii tniinting
with a conical roof, standing apart from
the manor-house and in the midst of
magnificent trees. The interior pre-
enks all the rude reality that actual
work ever imparts, and is lined with two
tiers of bonks. Everywhere are evi-
enees of Jeff Davis' individuality in
the form of pictures and statuettes. Mr.
Davis will not permit any profane bands
here, and everything must remain as be
leaves it. While he is closeted in bis
sanctum no one mav disturb him. This
iw is Draconian. Mrs. Davis almost
apologized for the condition of the
grounds, which were quite mHtmobme,
owing to the tlinieuity ot procuring
labor. Beauvoir, as is known, was tin
gift to Jefferson Davis from an ardent
admirer, and a right lordly gift it was.
Of my reception at Beauvotr 1 may nut
speak' more. The sweetest and gracious

Good Advice to Young Men.

vouna: man in Atlanta, Qa., says:
"Please accept my sincere thanks lie
the present which you send me of a pair

that you are 17 years of age, and that
tbev are made bv yourself ; 1 trust that
this speaks well lor your iuture. it
many thousands of the youth of the
Southern country would engage in use
ful pursuits of that and like character
instead of passing a great deal of their
time in idleness, as some do, the country
would be . in a better condition. Alway
recollect that all labor that is useful
is honorable. In whatever position a
voung man is placed, if he has health be
lias it in his power, by his labor, to
make himself useful ami respected; and
I deliaht to see the voung men of Geor
gia laying aside all false pride on this
subject and going to work manfully to
make a good living and make themselves
