The Cherokee Georgian. P. H. BREWSTER,) Editorg J. J. A. SHARP, f Editors. CcLlltOn, Oct-, WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 29, 1875. 1876 Will be a year of great events. Besides the Centennial exhibition, it will be a year of elections, when the President, Governor, Congressmen, members of the Legislature, and county officers will be chosen. Every citizen should be informed upon these sub jects, and The Georgian purposes to fur nish the necessary information to Its read ers for the low price of $1.50 for a year’s siibscription. The year 1876 will be unexampled in the history of material progress. Every where the ingenuity and skih of man will be directed with renewed energy to the de veloping our common country and utilizing its vast productions. In our own section I important enterprises, in which every citi zen has an immediate and tangible interest, will be prosecuted to completion. The construction of the Marietta and North Georgia railroad, the navigation of the Et owah, the erection of factories, the devel opment of mines, are enterprises which interest all intelligent citizens. The Geor gian will keep its readers fully apprized of these matters; every good citizen should keep posted regarding them ; therefore all should subscribe for the paper. Soon after the opening of the new year, a series of historical sketches, embracing all facts obtainable with regard to the early settlers of Cherokee, their customs, habits, and manners, a full account of the abo rigines, and a succinct but complete history of the noteworthy settlements in the coun ty from their infancy to the present time, will be commenced in The Georgian. Everybody should be acquainted with the history of the locality in which he lives •nd, if he lives in Cherokee, he can not at tain that knowledge more easily and cheap ly than by subscribing for The Georgian, and reading the articles as they appear. But aside from the interesting events which the new year v ill disclose, every head of a family worthy of the position should take the county paper for his own and his family’s sake; for, in its columns he will find, each week, every loca’ occur rence Worth mentioning, he will get the benefit of suggestions which may save him much time and expense, and will be ena bled to keep abreast of his neighbors in intelligence. A county paper furnishes matter whidh can not be had anywhere else; its editor is identified with the people in whose midst the paper is published, and he understands what will best conduce to the enjoyment and edification of his circle of readers. The Georgian docs not make high pretensions, though its aim is the pub lic good, its desire is to please and profit its patrons and increase in usefulness. 11 is act ns large a sheet, nor as ably edited, nor aa well printed, as some papers we might name, but we believe it occupies a place in Cherokee county which no other paper, however large, ably managed and finely gotten up, can satisfactorily supply. This being confidently believed, we do not hesi tate to declare that The Georgian is of tar greater value to the people of this county than any journal printed elsewhere, no matter what inducements in premiums and low subscription price are offered. In conclusion, we would remark that if a locnl newspaper is beneficial to a county, all good citizens should encourage and support it; if the paper is worth anything. It is worth a dollar and a half a year; if one time is more fitting than another to subscribe, now Is the time, when we are •bout to 1h) ushered into a new year, full of activity and “big with fate."

To follow it, a merchant has either to charge enormous pro fits, or ruin himself by selling ©n time. Those of you who pay promptly have to pay such large profits that, the merchants can af ford to lose the accounts of your neighbors who are not disposed to pay, or who are unfortunate and can not pay. In other words, good men have to pay for the goods pur chased by their unfortunate or dishonest neighbors. This state of things is wrong, and when a man is satisfied that he is wrong he should change his course, or be held responsible for living in the wrong. Fully convinced that the above position is correct, I have deter mined to sell, after the Ist of De cember next, exclusively for cash or barter. I can and will sell at least twenty per cent, cheaper, the stock through, than I have ever sold. lam in favor of every per son paying for hi« own goods, and hope none of my old customers and friends will be offended when I say to them that after the Ist ©f December I will sell for cash or barter only. I will be no respecter of persons, will require cash*from every one, and positively will net open my books to charge asef item, be it ever so small, to the best naan in the county. If you have cash or barter, call and examine my stock and prices before purchas ing elsewhere, and you will then be fully satisfied with my new de parture. I charge nothing for ex hibiting goods, or giving prices, and when you have examined th« one and heard the other, you will then be convinced it is to your in terest to pay as you go. All those who are indebted to me, or to the firm of McAfee & Moss, must come forward and make immediate settlements. This is my last call. Very respectfully, 15-lm J. M. McAFEE. CHEAP CASH STORE. W.
