[Contributed.] It is a great mistake to educate a youtig inan only because it is expected that ho may enter upon professional life. We believe we speak within the bounds of expetience when we say that three fourths of the parents whose sons go t<> college expect them to become eillur lawyers, doctors or ministers?:i:i.4 i-; well, and yet, it is not well. The fuel is then that many parent* do not si-tui their sons to college because Jhey will follow the busines, rather than the professional avocations. This should not be so. It is not stating it too strongly, perhaps, to say. that educated men are needed as much in the commercial and ^business, as in the professional, world. This is a commercial age to a groat exA. A. t l tent. jjusiness is more complicates 111 almost every sphere and it requires .? well trained, self-reliant mind to direct the industrial machinery and preserve that great essential to success?equilibrium. It may be said that many of the successful business men of the day had little or no education. Let it be admited that such is the fact. The same may be said of professional men, but if'this is h 4>roof o. any thing it is that thuir minds were just the sort best suited for education. They overcame obstacles by their natural strength. Suppose this inherent .power of mind had been assisted in its 0 development, its possessor would have found his business and life more pleasant, thereby sparing him of much worry of mind and body. Hard work does not injure one's health?it is unrest of mind that is damaging to the physical man. In the business world the highest test of success is not found in the greatest amount of money accumulated, but rather in the manner of its acquisition, whether large or small. That man who has made property to the amount of .Tfifty thousand dollars, and {at the same, time has moved on quietly, finding pleasure in his business, yielding generously to the calls of humanity, willing to sacrifice a dollar, rather than make \i nt f.VlA nvnnnon .?f a 1 1_ *a ... .....

'As a general rule the most successful merchants, financiers farmers, and business men generally ar?those who have received a good educa(inn nr li*>i*n nnnu!? 1 r - V. .IVIJUIIUU Ik IIICIIIMM Vt?H. Ill this day when competition is so great' and strife for the mastery so sharp, that miV must go down, or fall almost into J ^nation,whose mind has not been well ined in his youth. ?i'id taught depennce on its own power. How much Nisnntor will the merchant find his siness, if his mind has been trained to love literature. At night he finds i< delightful to storn it more and more v with knowledge that fills up the nappy Jife. So with the farmer?he will thus find that his farm lite is not all drudgery, and dig, dig, dig. Let him dig and let him read and ha will Ik* contented. Thus the educated sons of farmers will not v leave their County homos for the towns j?arm lite, to ho pleasant must be something more than following the plow Irom sunrise to Minuet year after year? this wears out?better make a little less and have more ploimire. Let there be some attraction at home and on the farm, and we. believe that higher education among our farmers means thes< very things. So, we think that parents should educate their sons though t*hey are to become men of business. Let it be under< stood that they are to be men of affairs an w?ll as of looks, and of books as well as of business. A TRIP TO CHARLESTON. At the risk of having a chestnut bell rung on us, wo venture to give a brief Account of a recent hurried trip we made to Charleston. Some correspond-1 outs have undertaken to say that the accojints of the da in ape to the city by the earthquake has been exaggerated. I Surely, the one who wrote such ?n 1 ... "r?" ion must have made hut a superficial andcursory investigation. We spent but a 'ew hours in the city, but thoso were devoted to to the investigation of the damage done by the earthquake. A friend who is a resident of the city, 4and himself a sufferer, showed us ground. It is of the damage to public buildings, or to the buildings of principal importance. All thai has been sufficiently described, and is apparent to the most cursory 1 glance. It is the unseen destruction that swells the sum total of the losses | to an almost fabulous num. Walking . along the 'streets, one sees buildings. many of them of wood, that are appar- ? ently unharmed. But an inspection of ' the interior discloses scones of almost , indescribable wreck and ruin. Plaster- ] ing thrown down ; doors forced front their hinges ; mantels thrown down and l destroyed; crockery and glass broken ! and furniture injured. Theso are the sights that greet one's vision upon en- , tering these houses. A great deal of work hiis been done and is being done, I and the outward evidences of the fear- : I ful visitation are disappearing. Money ' continues io pour in, and .it is thought! j the voluntary contributions will f ill noi ! J far short of a million tloii.irs. Ifiu J , . this amount, great as it is, will not re- < I i'i?. vu more (linn a fourth of the wan; ; hum sutfet ing. What is to ho done as 1 j to thy h.ilauc ? I.' a loan at three per cent (Mil hi- elf.'Cled, well and good. If it raonot he dono, _w;i! tin* State take , the tnatJiT in hand ? Or can it '!o it ? ! These are ?ravo questions. if it can I Ue done legally, we say let it he d.mo. j Charleston is nil impor'.ant integral pari ! of thy SMc. iter loss involves heavy | loss 1.0 the State. Her prosperity conj duces to the prosperity of the whole t Stato. ll may l>e wisdom to give State aid to tin: metropolis of the Stare. It certainly would he commendable <:i :?ritv. j: Wo cannot fail to say a word of admiration of the spirit and energy of tin* peoples of Charleston, ?vho are heartily and cheerfully at work restoring their shattered homes. Families are returning to their homes. Temporary repairs [ are going on on all sides, and business ' is in full blast. No repining or coinplainirg is heard. Such people deserve j aid and should aiul will have it. i Charleston will rise from this pros- 1 tration stronger, more beautiful and more hopeful than of oid. THE CONGUKSSIONAIj 1?111MAUY| i Before another issue of this paper the people of the Third Congressional Distrirt will have had an opportunity to r:; pr?-ss at the polls their choice for a Representative in the Fiftieth Congress We would like; to reitvrate the views of last week and tir^o upon the voters, the necessity of turning out. on the 23.1 instant to vote for the man of your choice. It is a duty you owe not only to yourself, hue to your County, your District, and tlx? whole State. You. (the voters) have demanded this priimiry, and it onlv ro mains to he seen whether yon appreciate it or not. If appreciation nf il is not shown hy a full vote it will he ?. strong argument for refusing yon thy privilege at the next election. Lot the voters then of the whol? District express their choice, ami there can ho no ground for dissatisfaction :it the result. Serious dissatisfaction might arise, if only a ?hird of ^r a half vote was polled. ANEW BOOK. We have read with a great deal of pleasure a little hook, called ''Daddy Dave" by Mary Frances. It treats of tin1 i?nln ?/>*? #K..? 1 I? .*% *> * " .w.fiuvMi uiiu caimimi in me rioutn tielori* the wnr, between muster and slave, and is written to correct the erroneous view that the slaves were as a general thinu treated harshly. The main object of the book, however, is to put on record, the faithfulness of the colored race to the helpless women and children who wenlift in the South during the war. The tribute to thern is not overdrawn, but will be fully recognized and appreciated by those who experienced the tria's of those sad times. It Is written in a pleus# ant, ea.;y manner, and will well repay a perusal. It is published bv Messrs. ?/ " Funk iV Wagnnlls, Now York and may bo had from them for fifty cents. j^W. J.

On to Athens We yesterday received information, ckogether authentic,that in a vary short time?probably twelve months?the business men of our city will seeuii- a long-hoped-for enterprise, viz : a railroad not only to Klbcrton out exti niing beyond that thriving little city nn?' on through Abbeville, Greenwood. and Chester, S. C. From Athens it will be constructed to Atlanta, prohubly by Jut; Tavern ami making about an air-line from here to that city. The engineering corps are now in the field, and in a few days will be in Klbert, when they will push on to Athens, Mr. Julius Millis is the President of tin? company, with headquarters ht Chester, S. (!." and he says that in a very f-w months* hands will be breaking dirt on the banks of the Savannah river, and the road pushed through to Athens as .fast ns ni:?n and money can do the work. We learn that this enterprise is hvekf'd by the powerful Pennsylvania Central svndcate, and will connect with Monrge, N. C'., with u through line controlled by that company. Jo I. llaehen, of the Macon,?fe Ath? ns oad. spoke of this line,and said it would issuredly be built, and it seems that lis words are about to be confirmed looncr ve expected. A road to the east, lapping or cutting in two the iOlborton \ir-Line and restoring to Athens the raluable trade she lost upon the huildng of this nnrrow-gnage, hns been . the Irenni of our people for years; and vhile they have been divided as to the visdotu of giving aid tothe other lincf, hey are a unit oh the imporeance ofgettng a- road to Elberton. But in the vent that tho proposed lino is built it eill be even greater thing than our nost sanguine people could hope for. t not only restores to uh our Elbert rade, but brings into Athens a business xtending for one hundred miles into louth Carolina for which there will be o rival with us. PresidentMiljfcift ex pected in our city soon in tho interest of this road, and wo promise him in advance every aid and every encourage- < ment that the Athenians can give. Our I people naa as wen oegin to prepare tor this new road, for there is no doubt but that it will come hero. The men who arc* at the head of it know no such word * as fail. We are now assured'of the Maooni & Athens road, which will J>o it> operation by Christmas, and also the extension to lvnoxville is almost a fixed fact. Now let us got the road to j the east, via IClberton, and Athens* cup ( of happiness will be full to ovorllowing. I ? Manner Watchman Charleston's -Needs. C:ia;:i.k?rox, S.
