We onght, by all means, to have a tri weekly mail from Marietta. Can we not have it? Wk hope our citizens will read the pro dings of the Navigation meeting, bear in mil d the date of the mass meeting, and ' attend in a body. No money is asked of anyltody, but the manifested sympathy of everybody is netded to accomplish the ob je< t in view. Clink, Rhyne and Reinhardt all live in the Lost Town or Walesca country. We saw them all on a wagon, the other day, and remarked that it was a strange coinci dent. “Yes,” said old friend Reinhardt, “but one of us has a hart'' “True,” we replied, “but it is merely a rind of a heart."

The sky was black with threatening clouds, when suddenly r shower of fine hail covered the ground, the clouds almost as quickly parted, and the frill moon, with unusual splendor, shone open the landscape, beautifying everything.

The Union Sunday-school has decided to rabe a Christmas tree, and dispense its sweet fruitngc of love,affection,and young lieartedneas on Christmas eve. We hope that every little one in town will partici pate : n the enjoyment of the good things, •nd if a committee of our winsome young ladre would start around with the vonli : - butim-box, alighting nobody, they would attract enough to accomplish the object. Unloose your purse-strings, gentlemen, and let the hearts of all the children be made glad together. 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.

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 • the letter, and not be the instrument in un | scrupulous hands by which innocent men ; can be made to suffer heavy {•ena!ties for . non-compliance with a mere formality. * Don’t forget the meeting January ph. Walesca Notes. - - • » 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» nuking his own supplies, and will sell over i thousand pminds, besides* keeping a suf ficiency to Iced about a round dozen o? little children. 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, Dr. M. A. Leak, of Scottsville, Alabama, called to nee us last Saturday. He on his way t» So ttlt Carolina tor the pur-’ pos 1 * of S'l ! ng state and co inty righ's for patent tn dicings of his own invention. He nfirn elus that he has invented a Liver Regulator, and liniment which is rapidly giving favor among the afflicted, and thinks that thise medicines will be universally used whenever their great virtue s shall be generally made known. We wish our friend abund mt success in his enterprise. The afflicted .should not fail to read carefully Dr. Southwick’s card, in another column. He is very successful in the dis eases lie treats.
