The subjection of calling a convention of the people of Georgia for the pur pose of making certain changes and im provements in our State Constitution is of late being extensively discussed by the press and people. When this same subject was receiving considerable atten tion about a year ago, though in favor of the convention, we thought the time had not come for calling it, and we held our peace. But what we thought inop portune—merely as a matter of policy, however—at that time, we favor now on principle. We have never regarded the present instrument as a Constitution of the people of Georgia, neither suited to the people of Georgia. It was the work of a class —military, mongrel, and othe wise mixed—who neither knew or cared to suit the wishes of the real, tax-paying citizens of the State, and the sooner it is made to do so the better. If we have not the talent to frame an instrument to do honor to our proud old State, then we can call on tire head of a faction at Washington to send us some of his ser vile tools to do the work fur us. But the State whose statesmen ranked second to none in the country when honesty was the rule and corruption and bribery the exception, and sound Democratic doctrine was a recognised authority in place of Centralism—possesses now less ability and honest integrity, and the Constitution under which we could then live, with ample protection to life and property, and all rights guarantied, will serve us now. It is no more necessary to have a defective opera house for a capital since the “universal nigger" was invested with certain rights, than it was when people were abler to sustain such gaudy trappings, but forbore subjecting their servants to temptation. Economy is the order of the day, and if it be practiced in the administration of public affairs the people will take to it the more readily. There are numerous ways of reducing expenses in running the machinery of the State government, and a convention could do good in this respect We have seen nor hear and of any good why a convention should not be called, while it is patent there are numerous good reasons why one should be called. The time is propitious, the people are anxious—let the Legislature act. Hard Times. Tn reading Bill Arp’s experience of the hard times, especially touching the ad monitions, or “cacklin,” as he calls it, of the “old hen,” we were struck with the similarity of his experience with our own. How often have we been told to request subscribers who pay for their paper in '‘chips and whetstones,” not to bring rotten chestnut wood, as it is impossible to bake a respectable ashcake with such ■wood, and the children being barefooted are kept continually running to the woodpile to replenish the fire; that bald headed and youthful butter and eggs of this year’s crop are preferred. Again we are told to take that half dollar that Mr. Green paid last week and buy a few more molasses for the matutinal meal, as there is nothing else to accompany the ordinary ashcake—those big potatoes and the sorghum Mr. Wheat paid being consumed a week ago, and to try and save ten cents to buy some apples for ’Mericus to take to school, and a little to get a yard of inch-wide velvet riband to put on last winter’s hat to go to church with on next second Sunday and hoar the new preacher, and that a little bleached homespun is desired to make a gown to have James Oliphant christened in, and I guess that will take all of that half dollar. And when you get that other half dollar promised you on the saleday in December, you must try and put by a quarter to buy some rag dolls for Vira and Susan Helen for Christmas. With such demands on our purse, it is a difficult matter, in these hard times, to “make buckle and tongue meet,” but we are determined to worry through, and we are going to take ’Squire Arp’s ad vice and “do the very best we can.” “A Washoe Zephyr.” Every one who has read “Roughing It,” by Mark Twain, will readily know what devastating effect the “Washoe zephyr” has upon the inhabitants, cattle, houses, etc., in the far West. Something like one of these zephyrs, passed over our town, and from what we learn, over the entire county last Sunday night.— About 12 o’clock that night, the four winds of the earth, seemed to have com bined their forces into one, and intended to give vent to their cramped feelings by blowing away everything that crossed its path. Soon after boreas turned loose his blowing apparatus, every person in town had been awakened by the intensi ty of the storm, and look in any direc tion you chose, you could spy a light, showing plainly that someone in every household had been aroused. We heard of a gentleman who was sleeping sound ly, and {Lreaming probably, of the “girl he left behind him,” awakening as the wind was at its height, and realizing his position as dangerous, he deserted his quarters for the cellar, thinking the low er he could get in the ground the safer he would be, we heard that he commenced digging himself a hole. We heard of another couple who had been disturbed by old boreas. They had gotten up, struck a light, and were wait ing for the storm to abate somewhat be fore again retiring. In the meantime, the winds moaned and howled. Every succeeding gust seemed to be more severe than the last, and apparently, as it struck the house, and blew aconrs, grav el an “sich like” against the windows, sure destruction appeared certain. The lady becoming very much frightened, asked her husband “why he was not praying,” he said that he “supposed he could pray as a well standing as he could by kneeling.” He is a Presbyteriat. A large tree was blown down near the house of one of our most respected citizens, and the fall created considera ble noise. His wife asked him “why he did not get up and see what had hap pened.” “Oh, my dear,” says he, “I’m perspiring too freely to venture out, I might catch cold. I suppose somebody’s house has been blown into the yard by this fearful storm,” and then he covered up his little head and tried to sleep. This was, indeed a terrible storm, ac companied with all qualifications that constitute the same, viz: wind, rain, thunder and lightning. Our experience and reflections during this dreadful gale, were about as fol lows : Near 12 o’clock, we were awakened by a roar, that sounded to us like a great fire, and so we thought it was; but just then a shower of acorns struck the win dows that souuded, we imagine, like the bombardment of Palis, then we realized for the first time, that a terrible storm was raging. We arose frightened as shower after shower of rain and acorns rattled against the glass. We attempted to dose the shutters during a lull; but just as we raised the window to close the blmds, a tremendous gust of wind came against the sash, blowing it out of its place, and our head came near being en circled by the sash. We looked like a hot-house but we didn’t feel warm. In a little while we fixed our window, and endeavored to sleep, but this was impos sible. We imagined as the house jarred, and the timbers cracked* [the other oc cupants deny that it jarred or cracked], that we were on the bosom of the briny deep, and that we were aboard a vessel, and all on board were sweetly singing : “The stormy winds how they blow, blow, blow, The raging seas how they roar,” etc. Sleep finally returned to our wearied troubled body, and old Morpheus em braced us tightly until late the follow ing morning. The damage done, consisted chiefly of the blowing down of fences and trees.— We heard of one roof being tom off by the terrific wind. It was fortunate that it did not assume the shape of a whirl wind, for had it assumed this form, roofs would have been in imminent danger.— We should be thankful that no more damage was experienced than was. f ; ’Possum-Hunting. The other night, two young men of about 19 summers, one a fiery blonde, the other a flashing brunette, concluded to while away a few hours of one of the long November nights, by chasing the raccoon and the ’possum. After being out sometime, the dogs treed a skunk. The uninitiated youngsters mistook this cat for a ’possum, and the tree being small, one of the boys knocked him out with a stone. As soon as he fell, the dogs grabbed him, and for yards around the air was perfumed with odor peculiar to this animal. The boys’ axe was near by, and it got a sprinkling of this fra grant extract The boy that carried the axe, swore that if he could get home be fore the stench from the axe killed him, i they’d whistle before they’d get him out | possum huntin’ again. Howland’s System of Horse Training. As announced in last week’s Gazette, Dr. W. H. Rowland delivered a lecture in Elberton. last Friday, on the educa tion, of the horse, listened to'by a large crowd. His remarks showed a thorough ly practical knowledge of the horse, and he easily won the confidence of his lis teners. After the lecture, a class of twenty was readily formed for the pur pose of being initiated into Dr. Rowland’s system of horsemanship. Having been in the class we can safe ly testify to the excellence of the system for the complete subjugation of the most vicious animal to the will of the master, and that too without inflicting the slight est injury. The system is thorough and a knowledge of it insures complete con trol of the horse. The entire class ex pressed themselves as well satisfied with the instruction received. Dr. Rowland is a pleasant, intelligent gentleman, and fully understands the subject he treats of. He will be in Elberton next Saturday for the purpose of forming another class for instruction. We advise all interested in horses to take instructions. Town and County. The town-pump has been reconstruct ed. The cold, chill winds of December are a month a head of time. The oil that has been poured upon the waters of the matrimonial sea, has some what pacified its ragings—reports are less numerous. We heard a man who owned a gin, say that another man owed him 50 cts. for two buckets of water he had gotten out of the stream that turned his ma chinery. From what we have heard fanners are nearly through picking cotton in this connty. “It was a good time for cows after the storm, Sunday-night,” remarked a gen tleman the other day. Gardens were fenceless and cattle were making much of the opportunity. At Last.— Elberton is supplied with a first class tailor at last. Mr. H. D. Schmidt, formerly of New York, latterly of Augusta, is now in our midst, ready to execute all work, neatly and nicely that comes under the head of tailoring. His place of business is over the store of Messrs. J ohn H. J ones & Cos. Mr. Schmidt comes well recommended, and will no doubt give entire satisfaction.— Don’t fail to give him a trial A first class tailor has been sadly needed in this town for some time, and we think he is the right man in the right place. Give him your support. The Tournament. ■We heard it whispered on the streets of onr town last Saturday, something to the effect that the young men of Elbert, and those of Abbeville county, had in anticipation a tournament to come off in a short time. We also heard that the place of riding would be Ruckersville, and the ball would be given at Elberton. These, however, were mere suggestions, and we think those interested in it in tend having a meeting soon, when every thing pertaining to the tournament will be decided upon. If able, we will then give particulars. Hymenial. Married on the 12th of Nov., 1873, by Rev. Thos. Crimes, at the residence of the bride’s father, Miss Fannie F. Freeman, of Camesville, to Mr. J. E. Brewer, of Elberton. To the happy pair we proffer our sin cere wishes for their future happiness. May their life never be darkened by a care or cloud ; but as they journey the rugged, meandering pathway of the fu ture, may it be strewn with the choicest flowers, and unalloyed happiness be their lot in the world to come. Watch Out. Mr. J. L. Deadwyler, gives those in debted to him fair warning to come and settle up by the first Tuesday in Decern ber. He intends after that date to com mence suit against all parties owing him. Settle up with Mr. Deadwyler, and pre vent him from carrying into effect this unpleasant method of collecting what is justly due him. See advertisement in another column. Wagon Trade. Our town was very lively the latter part of last week, and the first part of this, with wagons laden with bacon, ap ples, pork, cabbages, &c. Elberton will soon be as good a market for the up country produce as the best. Business is Business. We learn that the farmers of Hart county are rushing their cotton into market. The enterprising firm of J. B. Benson & Son, have already purchased and traded for about 300 bales. The other merchants of that town have also purchased largely. Drowned. A colored man, named Hay, who was employed by Mr. John Thompson, of Hopewell Factory, in this county, was drowned in Broad river at Cade’s Mill, on last Thursday night. It appears that the negro was returning home with his team, having been on a trip to some point. He arrived at the river sometime after dark, and finding the flat on this side of the river, he got into a bateau and started for the flat to carry his team across the stream. Being dark, he did not perceive that the bateau had sprung a leak, and was in a very bad condition.— We learned that a piece of plank had been tom from the stem of the boat, and the water ran in rapidly, but un known to its occupant When about half way the river, the boat sunk, aud the unfortunate victim being* unable to swim, went down with the boat, and his soul without warning ushered into eter nity. This sad accident should have a ten dency to impress upon every one the importance and truth of the old adage, under any and all circumstances, “to look before you leap.” A line Drop. We heard one of our citizens rejoicing over the abundance of the china-berry crop. We will here state that this gen tleman is a great utilitarian, and hence the rejoicing. He would winter his cat tie in part upon these berries, as they were splendid food for cows. A by stander was very glad to learn that the china-berry was of some use, and partic ular so now, as they were good for cows, stating that he had been at a loss as to how he would manage to feed his stock during the winter. He remembered that there were plenty of china-berry trees about his premises, and that he would make good use of them. Surely everything upon the face of the earth is good for something. —_ — — *<-><► The Grangers. The two granges organised in Elbert county, having received the requisite par aphemalia, may be considered in good working trim and prepared to transact all pertinent business. The prospect is bright for the growth of the order in the county, and there are promises of gran ges being formed in every section of the county, for the organisation of which it is no longer necessary to send beyond the limits of the county. Dove Creek Grange meets on the sec ond Saturday in each month, at Dove Creek Academy, at 2 o’clock. Elberton Grange will meet in Elberton every Saturday, at 2 o’clock, until fur ther notice. A full meeting of this grange is particularly desired next Saturday. Obligation*.' Our handsome, accommodating and clever young friend, Mr. J. N. Eberhart, will accept our thanks for the basket of nice apples he sent us last Monday.— Those wishing to purchase apples can find a nice lot at his store. Blessed is the man that remembereth the typo graphical artists. • * ~ ■ -• The Herald or Health, for October, comes to us enlarged and improved.

Harris. When Dr. Wistar's Balsam of Wild Cherry will.cure coughs, colds, bleeding at the lungs, and arrest the fell destroyer, Consumption, it does moae than most physicians can do. The use of a single bottle, costing dne dollar, will satisfy the incredulous that they need look no further for the required aid.
