~ I. 0. of G. T.
All, male and female members of the
Independent Order of Good Templars 1
are herewith respectfully requested to
attend the £rst meeting in their new
hall over Messrs. J. H. Jones & Cos., on
Monday next, the 13th of Mai’cb, pre
cisely at 7 o clock Como all! It will
be a very interesting meeting.
A. Mkkbeb.
Lecture on Penmanship.
H. J. Ambrose, professor of Penman
ship, will deliver a lecture on the art of
writing in Eiberton on Friday night
next, to which the public are cordially
invited. Prof. Ambrose attended a
course at Moore’s Commercial College,
Atlanta, and also a course at Packard’s
Commercial College, 805 Broadway, N.
Y., and having been very successful in
teaching in*our neighboring counties lie
is confident of his ability to give satis
faction.
Wo hope the professor will have a
good house.
burnt at the Stake.
A yonng farmer friend who wished to
burn off a field a few days ago, thought
lessly tied his mule in the field and then
set fire to the broom sedge. The wind
carried the fire in the direction of the
mule, and before long it reached him,
when the owner saw the predicament his
animal was in. Before lie could get to
him, however, the mule was so badly
burnt as to prevent his doing any work
for several months to come.
Another Eobhm’j.
The smoko house of Mrs. Vail, in Ei
berton, was entered last Monday night
and a half barrel of flour and a quantity
of lard taken out and carried off. Some
confidence is felt that the thief will bo
detected as there were footprints of the
thief around the place where the house
was entered which it is thought will
lead to important discoviies.
Jugged.
Jordan Levy, a gentleman of color,
was lodged in the Eiberton jail, on
Monday for safe keeping till the Supe
rior Court. Jordan had run short of
corn (in the grain) and supplied himself
from the crib uf Mr. Carter bluff, for which
the malicious magistrate sent him up. The
question with the sable philosopher is,
•will such encroachments upon personal
liberty be tolerated by the higher au
thorities.
* <?
Beecherism.
A report is in circulation to the effect
that a colored preacher of aldemanic
proportions, whose headquarters is in
Eiberton, has been imitating the exam
ple of the notorious Brooklyn free-love
demagogue. The colored people feel, very
properly outraged at his impropriety,
but what action will be taken by them
we have not been informed.
A Queer Weed.
A native of Switzerland who resides
in Eiberton, avers positively that in his
native country grows a weed that when
applied to a horse’s hoof will draw every
nail out of the shoe. Iks name he does
not remember, but its power ne has seen
tested.
Meeting of Directiors.
At the adjournment of the stockhold
ers’ meeting, a meeting of the newly
elected Board of Directors was called by
the President —present the President
and a full Board of Directors.
The Board was organized by the elec
tion of J. H. Jones Treasurer and J. T.
McCarty Secretary.
The President appointed as Executive
Committee—T. J. Bowman, J. H. Jones,
11. P. Mattox, J. H. Grogan, T. M.
Swift.
No business of any great moment was
transacted.
The next meeting of the Board was
appointed to be held at Goss’ school
house on the 7th day of April proximo.
And the Board adjourned.
Our Eailroad Prospects.
Notwithstanding the croakers, who
are always to be found where any enter
prise of merit is on foot, we cannot but
feel particularly hopeful of the comple
tion of the railroad in the very near fu
ture.
If the doubtful will not stand in the
way, and those who have been relied up
on in the great time of need for sub
stantiul aid will fulfill expectation, there
is no doubt whatever of the next crop
of cotton being carried off oy the Elber
ton Air-Line AVo do not hold out this
as a false or unreasonable hope, but as
being within the scopo of reasonable
probability.
Let all who can, and who desire to see
this work a success —and who among
us don’t ?•—put their shoulders to the
wheel, give It moral and substantial en
couragement, and the hope is made a
certainty.
Who will join Judge Bowers' list ? It
is oren and ready.
Centennial Souvenirs.
The great centennial show which has
been advertised in all the papers—no
postponement on account of weather—
has served to bring to the surface many
old relics of bygone times, but we have
in Eiberton a souvenir of long ago
which, for age, is hard to surpass. Mrs.
M. D. Roebuck, a widow lady of our
village, has in her possession a lady’s
silk gauze cap which she estimates to be
nearly two hundred years old. It be
longed to her great-grandmother when
she was a young lady. Sirs. Roebuck s
predecessors were a r inarkably long
lived family. Her mother lived to be 90
Years old, dying when Airs. R. was 30.
Her grandmother and great-grandmoth
er lived to about the same age, and by
this she forms and estimates the ago of
this old family relic.
Annual Meeting of Stockholders.
The meeting of stockholders of the
Eiberton Air-Line Railroad Company
was much larger and more interesting
than we were induced to believe would
he the case before the day appointed
for the same, a large majority of the
stock being represented.
The meeting was organized by calling
Rev. J. 11. Grogan to the chair, J. T.
McCarty acting as secretary.
J. 11. Brewer, J. H. Jones, and AA • A.
Royston, a committee appointed to as
certain the amount of stock represented,
! reported 321 shares of the capital stock
present.
The annual report of the President
was thc-n read, which was a gratifying
exhibit of the company’s condition, and
when the statement was made as to the
amount of funds necessary to complete
the road, there was a very evident mani
festation of confidence that so small an
amount, comparatively, would not be a
serious obstacle to overcome.
The Treasurer’s annual report was
also a very welcome showing to the
stockholders, and by tins is shown that
the most rigid economy has been used
in the management of the company s af
fairs. Almost exclusively a local enter
prise thus far, our people have managed
the enterprise in a manner that must,
: when the facts are known, make a good
impression on the outside world. The
outlays are not only confined to legiti
mate'expenses, but many expenses that
might be considered legitimate in such
a work have not been incurred.
Messrs. E. P. Edwards, H. P. Mattox,
Win. AViliis, T. J. Bowman, and E. B.
Tate, Jr., were appointed a committee to
suggest names for President and Board
of Directors for the ensuing year.
AVhile the committee was out, the
audience was entertained by a character
istic address from Hon. AA T . F. Bowers,
who concluded by stating that he would
be one of forty-five men to raise the
§45,200 necessary to complete the road,
or that ho would invest §I,OOO in the
bonds of the company for that object,
which was received with rapturous ap
plause.
The committee reported she following
names for the several offices, all of
whom were subsequently elected by bal
lot :
For President—D. A. Mathews.
For Directors—J. H. Jones, T. J.
Bowman, H. P. Mattox, R. F. Tate, J.
H. Grogan, AV. F. Bowers, A. S. Turner,
AV. A. Royston, AV. L. Cornog, J. 11.
Brewer, 1). M. Carlton, T. M. Swift.
The following resolution was intro
duced by E. P. Edwards, Esq., and
unanimously, adopted.
Cesolyed, That the Board of Direc
tors be and they are hereby authorized
to investigate the status of the land
subscription to the E. A. L. RR. Com
pany, and to solicit additional suosciip
tions in land or otherwise and take such
action in the premises as may be deemed
necessary, and repoit lesult at the next
annual meeting of stockholueis of the
company.
The meeting then adjourned.
Bible Society.
Rev. Mr. Parks, the Bible Society
man will be in Eiberton next Sunday,
when a meeting of the members will be
held.

To the Editor of Tee Gazette :
I see with some surprise on the first
page of your paper this week a scurril
ous attack upon me by James D. Wad
dell; it purports to be a reply to a speech
I m de in the Senate on the bill to abol
ish what is called the Georgia State
Lottery.
The articlo was of such a character
that the editor of the Constitution in
Atlanta, refused to admit it his columns
till appealed to on the ground that he
had published my speech as furnished
by the reporters, and then only I think
as a paid advertisement; to it I never
paid the least attention, and my friends
both in the Senate and in the city heart
ily approved my course.
Five ladies, teachers in the orphan
school in the city addressed me on the
same subject, to whom I replied in a
manner satisfactory to them as well as
to the public.
Now why you should insert Col. Wad
dell’s article in the first column, on the
first page of your paper, the page in
tended for select reading matter is a
mystery to me ; if you had before that
time published my reported speech that
would perhaps have been a sufficiet rea
son ; or if you had afterward published
my speech as reported in full, it would
in some sort, though not fully have
seemed fair.
The controversy came to an end by
the triumphant passage of the bill abol
ishing the lottery with overwhelming
majorities in both houses of tiie General
Assembly, and I do not care to carry it
on any further.
I leave it to an intelligent public to
decide whether I did right in pushing
the main question—abolishing tho lot
tery—to its final passage, without tak
ing any notice of the article you publish
over the signature of James D. Wad
dell. Robert Hester.
Elberton, March 3,187 G.
[From Madison County Edition of March I,]
DAXIEf.SVir.LE NOT YET FINISHED.
Several years ago a young blood was
driving through our quiet village, from
the Madison Springs, then a fashionable
resort. When just opposite tho house
of Mrs. a good old stammering
Presbyterian lady, he stopped and rising
to his feet in his elegant conveyance ex
claimed, “"VVt-11 this-is the first town I
ever saw that was finished. Not a sound
of hammer—y os finished.” The oldlady’s
patriotism was aroused, and she began
ia a shrill voice, “W—w—w—well, we
was about finished, but we lacked a
foo—foo—fool, we have got him now. I
guess we are finished.” The whip de
scended upon the fine pair and it was
the last seen of the young sport.
Yet Danielsvillo was not, nor is yet
quite finished. Besides several compar
atively now dwellings. we’have anew jail,
a courthouse contemplating repairs and
a church that intends to put on anew
roof before the centennial.
Air. Fergurson has just completed
and moved into his new residence, while
the Messrs. Strickland have opened a
new store. Besides all this our town
has been placed under a municipal gov
eminent.
THE APPROACHING COURT
Creates rather more interest than usual,
as the dockets are full, including some
cases of rather a novel character—what,
for instance, will they do with our Kev’d
school teacher, who swindled the Board
out of three times the amount due him?
There are two others with him in jail,
both like himself, American citizens of
African extraction.
EDUCATIONAL.
Our school commissioner is making
his last payment to the teachers of pub
lic schools for last year. Our county
does extra well in this particular, paying
8 cents per day—no deductions—to all
goo I English teachers. Our schools are
looking up. Air. Green will open .short
ly with 50 or GO pupils, while Air. Carl
ton’s school at Paoli is increasing in
numbers and popularity.
AN OLD CITIZEN GOING TO LEAVE.
Those fond of good eating will be
sorry to hear that ‘‘Aline host,’ Air,
Richard Alosely expects fo leave our
town, having parchased a lot on the
North East Railroad.
MILITARY.
Fifteen Federal soldiers—regular blue
fellows armed with muskets, &c.—have
been reconnoitering our county during
the past week to remind us of old times
| and to hunt up still houses.

Paoli, Ga., March 1,187 G.
RELIGIOUS.
The good people of Paoli established
a prayer meeting here more than eighty
years ago, and while the third genera
tion has almost passed away, and a rev
olutiou has been wrought in social and
political affairs, yet the “sweet hour of
prayer” has never been forgotten or ne
glected. As the faithful father is cut
down, the dutiful son takes up the yoke.
In connection with the Wednesday
night prayer meeting, we now havo a
religious lecture from Rev. J. B Alor
ton, which is always interesting as well
as instructive. AVe have also a Sunday
school, and, what is still better, we have
no whiskey shop to make brutes of hon
est people’s children. It will bo doubt
less more tolerable for Paoli in tbe day
of judgment than for some more preten
tious places.
TIIE GRANGERS
In our community are not only living,
but active. They have gone to market
this week to purchase supplies for the
year with the proceeds of last year’s
crop. By supplies wo do not mean corn
1 and bacon. Douglas.
THE DOWNFALL OF CAELISM.
The Carlist insurrection has at last
been completely suppressed. The army
of Don Carlos is shattered. His strong
holds have surrendered. His war
material has fallen into the hands of the
victorious Alfonsists. His troops are
fleeing in all directions for safety, and
the Pretender himself is making rapid
tracks for an -asylum in Austria. It
will iu all probability be a long time
before Don Carlos will raise the stand
ard again, and Don Alfonso is now
left free to deal with his Cuban insur
gents and such Republicans or Inter
national uprisings as may occur in
Spain at no distant day. Tho Cailist
insurrections have occupied so promi
nent a place in the history of the last
fifty years that a resume of the fluctua
ting fortunes of the various pretenders
will be of interest.
The Carlist upraisings really date
back to the time when the second Don
Carlos, son of Charles IV., made his ad
vent in Spanish affairs. His brother
Ferdinand VII., was childless, and upon
this fact his friends based the hope
that, upon the disease of Ferdinand,
Don Carlos would reach the throne.
This hope was frustrated by the abro
gation of the Salic law, which placed
Isabella upon the throne. AVhen Fer
dinand died, in 1833, Don Carlos pro
claimed himself King. Alaria Christina,
who was then Regent, leclared him a
rebel, and concluded tho quadruple
alliance with Great Britain, France and
Portugal, which resulted in tho expul
sion of Don Carlos from Spain and Por
tugal. He smuggled himself back into
Spain, however, and for six years main
tained a guerilla kind of warffire, un
til lie was eventually driven into France.
In 1845 he abdicated in favor of his son,
Carlos Luis Alaria Fernando known as
the Count of Alontemolin. The latter;
in 1549, entered Spaifi in disguise, but
was discovered and arrested. He was
subsequently released and went to En
gland, but with the pertinacity which
has characterized all the Don Carloses,
in 18G0 be was again in Spain at the
bead of a small army. He was over
wheliningly defeated at Tortosa and
made a prisoner, but was released upon
renouncing his claim to the throne. The
renunciation was made only to be
broken, and he in turn abdicated in
favor of his brothel*, Don Carlos Juan
Maria Isador, who, in October, 18G8,
resigned his claims in favor of his son,
the present Pretender, Carlos Maria
Juan Isidor, now in his twenty-eight
year, who, with his younger brother,
Don Alfonso, has maintained for several
years the insurrection winch has at
last been suppressed under tho admin
istration of his cousin, Don Alfonso,
now King of Spain.
The uprising has been maintained
with the most dogged pertinacity for
eight years with varying fortunes.
There have been times during the
transition periods of the Government
at Madrid when it seemed as if Don
Carlos were on the sure road to tho
throne, but the next wave would
hurl him back again. Suppressed in one
place, the rebellion would break out in
another. After a succession ot reverses,
money and arms would pour in again
from England and Fiance, and Don
Carlos’ banner would once moie rise.
Tho events of these eight years clearly
show these fluctuations. He made his
first uprising at La Mancha and Cuiclad
Real, in 18G9, during the Regency of
Serrano, but was quickly suppossed.
In 1870, immediately after the forced
resignation of Prince Leopold, and
while the Kingdom was in utter con
fusion, and the agitation for a renewal
of tboßepublic was onco more set in
motion, the Carlists made an irruption
into Navarre, but were again defeated.
Meanwhile Amadeus mounted the
throne and for a time quiet reigned at
Aladrid, but the Carlists were soon- busy
again. In April, 1872, Don Carlos, call
ing himself Carlos VII., crossed the
frontier at Vera and took command of
his forces only to bo routed in Navarre
by the overwhelming forces under Ser
rano. Lesser defeats followed in May,
and at last the Carlists commenced sur
rendering and dispersing, and the cause
of Don Carlos seemed hopeless. In the
latter part of May, Serrano offered am
nesty to Carlists who “would surrender,
but in June Cnrlism was increasing
again so fast that the Ministry proposed
martial law. The King opposed it and
the Ministry resigned. In February,
| 1874, Amadeus abdicated, and Carlism
| seamed thereupon imbued with fresh
life. During that month they seized
and occupied a largo part of Catalonia.
In April, however, they met with serious
reverses, In Jane, victory was on their
side again. They laid successful siege
to Irun, defeated Castanor at Unrieta,
and defeated and killed Calvinety.
: During the remainder of 1874 they had
made such headway that when Alfonso
ascended the throne, they held Navarre,
Biscay, Catalonia, and a considerable
portion of Central Spain. In April and
May of 1875, the forces of Dorregara i
were defeated and driven out of Valen
! cia. In June, Jovellar captured the
i Carlist citidel of Cantavieja, and drove
| the insurgents across the Ebro, and in
j the same month General AVeyler defeat
jed the Cat lists in Arragon. In August
! commenced the siege of the famous
j Carlist citadel of Seo de Urgel, which
finally capitulated, together with its
Ultramontane Bishop, and led to Sagalls
flight into France. The year closed
with the fragments of the Carlists
pushed up against the Pyrenees and
hemmed in by the Alfonsists. The
rigors of winter and the united and
telling blows of the Alfonsists, under
Jovellar’a direction, have at last crushed
out Don Carlos and his ill fated fol
lowers.

Leaves To-Day.
Col. Joseph L. Deadwylor, i’ue'gentie

goiheadedness, leaves to day to canvass
the State in the interest of anew oil
which promises to t k j the place of all
other light makers known. It is called
the “Morning Star,” and its advantages
over anything wo have heard of renders
it an article quite salable" and of great
popularity. Those dealing wi h Air.
Deadwyler, will find him genial and
clever and always ready and willing to
give satisfaction Success to you “Joke,”
may you make a spoon, and a large one
in your new business.
Barber Shop!
Wyatt Robson has again opened his
shop at hia old stand over Air. R. F.
Tate’s store. He is making many addi
tions in furniture, &c., and guarantees
satisfaction. “Only for white folks' is
his motto. Give him a call.
An Appeal to Parents.
Parents, do you love your children? Then pre
serve their health. Next to the blessing of life
itself, is the enjoyment of pci feet health. How
many are stricken down in the r infancy ft'mart
without a moment’s notice by that insidiousdi. -
case, Croup, simply through the neglect to be
provided with the proper remedy? The tender
plant is nipped and withers ere it blooms. When
tbe little sufferer lias short, difficult, hoarse
breathing, with a harsh meial ie, cough, like
coughing through a brass trumpet, there is no
time to lose. Begin at once '.he use ot Dr. Tutl’s
Expectorant and the disease will readily yield
to it. Always have it ready in the house, as
this fatal malady requires the promptest treat
ment. It is very pleasant to the taste, and chil
ilr n take it readily. 2t.
