Clink, Rhyne and Reinhardt all live in

saw them all on a wagon, the other day,
and remarked that it was a strange coinci

“but it is merely a rind of a heart." B.
A bkautiful natural scene was enacted

We arc told by a correspondent that our
friend Thomas I). Evans shouldered his
pick and went out, a few days ago, search
ing for an auriferous cyclone worthy of his ■
blade. After entirely exhausting bitrself,
he at last found one, but it was hxked up
j«nt across his line. “The best laid schemes
of mice and nren aft, gang aglee.” We
hope the Colonel will have better luck
next time.
The Union Sunday-school has decided
to rabe a Christmas tree, and dispense its

that every little one in town will partici

Carr. J. M. McAfee, the affable, gen
tlemanly and accommodating proprietor of
the Canton Hotel, knows how to serve an
appreciating public, and his house is at all
times Often to the public, dead heads and
all. So all ye that arc hungry, and who
have hungry horses, be sure when you come
to town to give Capt McAfee a call, and
stay as long as you pleaae. If you have any
money, pay your biHa, but if you have
none, we don’t suppose it will make much
d.fference, as everybody is obliged to eat, or
starve. C*pt- McAfev keeps a good table
and stable, aud all ot his latch-strings are

Am old .nan got out of a wagon, Monday
morning, and, entering Barton’s store, sank
down upon a sack ot meal, without saying
a word. He waa evidently in a melancholy
mood, but after awhile Mr. Joe Barton
broke the silence by asking hfs visitor what
he wm thinking about. “I was thinking,”
said the old man. “of the North Georgia
railroad, and wishing it was built. I live
up in Gilm«r county, aud have just been to
market with some truck; but I’ve been on
the road twelve days now, and what I re
ceived for ray produce will hardly pay ex
penses. I feel that, it we get the railroad,
ft will be the means of lifting a heavy bur
den from our people, make farming profit
able, and raise us from poverty to comfort.’’
Thai old man was right; and if the lack of
transportation facilities could be brought
IxNue to every one on the line as it was to
him, the cars of the North Georgia railroad
would l>e running from Marietta to Mur
phy wit Liu a year.
Navigation of the Etowah.
PUBLIC MEETING IN CANTON REGARDING IT.
At a meeting held Saturday, December
11,1875, and in pursuance of a call wlfch
appeared in The Georgian of the Blh in
stant, the citizens of Canton and vicinity
assembled in the court-honre. iu the interest
of navigation. On motion, Dr J M. Turk
was made chairman, and Mr. M E Cooper
secretary of the meeting.
As soon as order was secun d, Colonel P
H. Brewster was called upon to explain th<
objects of the meeting. This he did in
practical, comprehensive, and conclusive
argument, showing the feasibility of the
project, by illustration from facts actually
accomplishe I on the Oostanaula and Coo
sawattee rivers above Rom**. The boat
Mary Carter traverses a distance of two
hundred miles on a stream much smaller
than the Etowah, carries cne thousand
bales of cotton on a trip, and draws but
eleven inches of water. Space does not
admit of enumerating all the capital points
made in the Colonel’s address. Reference
was made to the able Congressman torn
this district, Dr. W. H. Felton, and his
readiness to urge Congress to act in this
matter.
Judge James O. Dowda, being called for,
addressed the meeting in a stirring, spirited
mood. He alluded to the importance of
every man contributing something for his
country’s development, and urged upon his
bearers the importance of a connection
with the great Mississippi valley and the
growing-commerce of the great W«*t. A
happy allusion was made to the patriots of
’76, and what they had achieved, though
surrounded by every difficulty. The great
mineral wealth of the mountains along the
Etowah wa’ touched upon, etc.
Next in order, Colonel James R Brown
arose, with his peculiar calm and dignified
manner, and submitted a resolution which
was receiv d with many demonstrations of
favor by the meeting. Colonel B. also
added a short address—very demonstrative,
concise, and pertinent to the occasion—in
which the great advantages of water trans
portation were clearly set forth. His reso
lution was entirely impromptu, as he stated,
and, after a short di-cussion, characterize
by perfect harmony an 1 unanimity, in lieu
of the resolution a niotii n was made by
Colonel Brown that a day be ffxed Ira
general meeting at Canton in the inter*st o
Etownb river navigation, to whi*h the cti
zens of all countss from Rome up, that lie
contiguous to the Etowah, be invited. Thi.-
motion prevailed, and the day was appoint
ed for the first Tuesday in January next
Professor J. U. Vincent then n oved for
the appoin nv’iit of a committee who should
draw up a set of resolutions expressive ot
the sense of this meeting, which committee
should als > invite speakers to address th<*
general m-eting in January, and also notify
the Press of such counties as are most in
tercsted in the enterprise, with the r> quest
that they pis lbh said resolutions, and urge
all persons along the route to meet with us
and contribute their voces and influence
to steamboat navigation on the Etowah
Below arc the resolutions reported by
the committee, Messrs. P. 11. Brewster, J.
U. Vincent, and J O. Dowda :
Whereas the great wed of the country
adjacent to the Etowah river from Carters
ville to Dihiowsra is a means ofcheap
transportation forth" virious abundant ag
ricultural prnduts, fine timber, and most
valuable minerals; and whereas the open
ing of the E owah river to navigation from
Rome to Ca iton ♦•tiers the speediest, sun st
and best me in« of securing permanent and
cheap transn <r»ation for the product of all
our indu<tri-s: and whereas, our Georgia
delegation in Congress, and i spec ally onr
immediate r pros* nt alive, Hon. W H. Pel
ton, ere now u-ing th* ir utmost efforts to
secure an appropriation tor the opening ot
the Etow ah from Rome to Canton ; and
whereas, it is of the utmost import nice that
the people, who are tn bc<lir ctlv benefited,
should now memorialize Congress on the
subject: be it therefore
Resolved, That it is the s-nse o’ this
meeting that ti g an I mass meeting of the
citizens along the Etowah from Rome to
Dahlonega !>*• held at the court-h-u«e !•»
Canton, Cherokee county, on the first Tues
day in Januoy next, for the pui|a»< oi
hearing distinguish'd speakers who will b<-
invited to address the assemblage on that
occasion, and to draft a sui'able memorial
to Congress, concerning the opening of the
said river.
Resolved. That the people along the Et
owah from Rome to Dahlonega be, and
Bo*v are hereby invited to meet with us on
the first Tuesday in January.
Resolved, Tint the Rome Commercial
and the Courier, the Carterville Express
and the Planters’ Advocate, the Dahlonega
Signal, and The Cherokee Georgian, be
requested to publish the same.
M. E Cooper, Scc.etary.
J. A. M. Smith, of this county, states
that he distilled one hundred and ten gal
lons of peach brandy this fall, and had it
gauged by a Mr. Fox, Government gauger-
Not having title requisite stain]* at hand,
the ganger explained to Mr. Smith how to
affix them, aud said the law would then lx*
complied with. The stamps were placed
on the barrels as directed, and last week
Mr. Smith wagoned the liquor to Rome to
sell; but he ha 1 no sooner reached that
city than a revenue inspector sciz d his
brandy, team and all, on the ground that
tlje ganger's name was not on the stamps !
Mr. Smith went to Atlanta to have the
matter rectified, but the officials there gave
him no encouragement, and he returned
home on foot, Sunday, much disheartened
by his unexpected and unmerited tumble.
If this statement of Mr. Smith is 'rue —and
I we have no reason to doubt it—we have no
hesitancy in saying that this seizure and
i probable confiscation is an outrage upon
' the rights of a citizen. It is proper enough
to enforce the revenue laws, so long as they
are on the statute book, but they should l«e
I carried out according to the rpirit as well

Our preacher, Rev. J. J. Harris, goes t<r
Alpharetta next year. Our people part
with Mr. Hanis with many regrets.
We have had pretty lively times here for
the lasi day or so. The people bqxin to
s nile, talk freely of paying their debts, and
then tiny say they intend to keep out.
hope so; there’s nothing like it.
Our friend. Rev. J. J. Kveter, brought us
a fine lot of pork, the other day. He i»

The young men of this neighborhood
have organized a debating club at the
school-house, where they repair occasion
ally and discuss questions of much interest
to themselves. You are right, young men :
goon in the pursuit of knowledge. Yon
nmy improve y< ur minds very much iu tl.e
discussion of prop r subjec s.
On the 6 h of January a m iss meeting of
the friends of the North Georgia lailroad
will be h< l I at Ellijay, in behalf of the cm,
te r prise. The building of the road to Can
ton will, we are reliably informed, be donfl'
within a few months; the force js now
busily engaged in hewing ties and) laying
them on the road bed, and the twelve mile?
of iron coutractql for wul e delivered. a*»
soon as this company is ready to lay the
track; but the contfnuation ofyhe.wqrk
beyond Canton without great delay, is not
so well Qf course, the road will
ultimately be built to the pfriposed termly
nus, but its completion in the near future
denends altogether upon the public spirit
and liberality of the people to Ire bent fifed.
The meeting at Ellijaj' is intended to show
the advantages, needs, and requirements of
the enterprise, and thus induce subscrip
tions; and we hope a large crowd w 11 at
tend, and Hirers! c rntributious strengthen
and pr »spcr the work.
Ad. Ward, a negro who w employed
by Mr. George Chamblee last year, and
who fled the couptry for cutting Jim Keith-,
another negro,.h?s made his appearance in
a new role, if seems, which ended in a
tragedy in real life. Ward’s wife is respon
sible for the statement that her husband
was recently put in the Murray county jail,
at Spring Place, for what she terms a “wo
man scrape”—probably an outrage upon
the person, ns the result would indicate, —
and that she went there and visited him in
jail; that on Tuesday night of last week a
party of mask' d men gained entrance to
the jail, took out her husiiand and hanged
him, and that she saw his lifeless body dan
gling from the limb where the self-consti
tuted executioners had left him We do
not vouch h r the story; but if it is true,
the country is rid of a bad character; if it
was a rape, retributive Justice smiles,

giving favor among the afflicted, and thinks
that thise medicines will be universally
