FRIDAY MORNING, MARCH 80, 1877 Here an<l/rii(‘rc‘byoiir Reporter "There’s a chiel among ye tnkin’ notes' And faith bo’ll prent ’em.” The charming Miss Vurnon is visit ing her friends in Cave Spring. Old Pegging-awl Parrish is trying to look pretty. \\ o know he is, ’cause he cut his whiskers off. Au advertisement of the Atlanta Constitution, one of the best papers in Georgia, will appear in our next. Mr.W. C. Knight bought a cow last week, <uul didn’t keep her in his yard but a little while before that cow took a fool notion and lay down and died. Capt. A G. West left last week to attend the funeral services of his futfi- er-iu-law, Mr. Browning, who died in New Yolk a few days since. Young man, go to the candy jork- ing to-night; take your duleirm, pay yonr quarter, and help build a house for tier preacher to live in. When a man spends a half hour tiying to bridle the wrong end of his horse, put him down ns 'iigiu the local option.' Many of our boys are sighing to day, wishing for n certain yoting lady to come back. Don’t cry, boys, hIh 'll be buck in a week or two. Your Chiel is responsible for nil grntnnmiienl errors,mis-spelled words, etc., that may occur (n this page, thereby relievii g the Boss, who is so very precise and corn ct. Mi. V. m. lb ge, of our county, hud his 1( g amputated above the knee, about six weeks ago. We wire pleased to see him in town last Fri day, his leg about well. Dr. Batley, of Borne, performed the operatiou. A letter was received hero this week by some of our merchants, from W. H. Adkins, manager of the West ern Union Telegraph Company, at Romo, making propositions to run a wire from Tecmnseh to our town, at a cost of about four hundred dollars, to bo paid by our citizens. Ilo also proposes to furnish an operator at a cost of not over thirty-five dollars a mouth, with the understanding that ho is to learn any ono young man or ludy to oporato the machine. A telegraph office would bo quite a con venience to our business men, espec ially in the cotton season; but whether they will consider it of suffi cient importance to justify tho outlay at present, wo are unablo to say. We announced last week that thu Cherokee Iron Compuo’s furnace was in full blast. They had made up to noon yesterday—just oue week from tho time tho match was applied— about one hundred and twenty-five tons of A No. 1 Foui.drv Iron—can’t bo excelled in the Uuited States, We trust tho Company may find ready sale, at remunerative prices, for all the iron they can manufacture, and we believe nil good citizens will lu- j lice at the success of the Company. Will tho people of Polk county, who are very “tender” on tho subject of high taxes, expenses of tho legis- isl ilure, a coubtilutiounl convention, court expenses, jail fees, paying for publishing grand jury presentments, nuil all other expenses, continue to pay, without a word of protest, $2 50 a square or levy for »S fieri if sales, and the same rates for the Ordinary’s ad vertising, when we propose to do it FREE OF CHARGE. Wo wish to give our leaders all llio county news, and sheriff sales ami such will be published by us hereafter as news. Our people should rufiiso to pay for such advertising in tin* future. Tho finance eommi*.tee of our tow n council, whose report will be found in t.Lis paper, comuieud the marshal, mayor and treasurer of last year, for tne donation (?) of u portion of their Ha I mies to the town, and recommend that state uml county officers do hk •- wise. We have donated (,?), in the jiast two years, about six hundred doll ill's in utivot Using, to the tax pay ers of the county, him 1 piojiose to ioii- tinue to donate tho M ime pinning, it the officers whom the people have elected to mi rvu them will allow ii. Sheriff sales and all the Ordinarya i dverlising done FREE in the J1 cord Remember this, ye tux-burdened people-—donb pay any more lii^li charges for she benefit of “political pets.” Tho laws of tlm State will not force you to pay it when it can be legally done for nothing. Don’t do it. Cut this Out—it May Save Your Mr©. There is uo person living but what suffers more or less with Lung Dis ease, Coughs, Colds or consumption, yet s<?mo would die rather than pay 75 cents for a bottlo of medicine that would cure them. Doctor A. Boshcheo’s German Syrup has late ly been introduced in this country from Germany, and its wouderous cures astonishes every one that try it. If you doubt what wo say in print, cut this out and take it to your drug gists, Bradford & Allen and get a sample bottlo for 10 cents and try it, or u regular sizo for 75 cents.

Address Too Fast One Time.—Brother Yur- bioigh, of the Cave Spring Euter- drif-o, note <3 for his down* ss iu getting married, going to see the girls, etc., is entirely too fast about “Good Friday,’ nud Easier Sunday. To-day is “U >od Friday” and Sunday is Easter, in stead of Friday and Sunday of las! week. And last Saturday wasn’t the 42nd day of March either.

All Business Intrusted to me will be Promptly Attended to. i»ur2-3rn. It is said that more guano will be used by our farmers Ibis year than lost. Air. Huntington has already sold about oue hundred and fifty tons and Nr. Wright ubout fifty tons. We have not ascertained how much has been sold at Prior s and Rockmait and other places, but we thiuk it sale to say that at least four hundred tons will be used iu the county. It will take u five hundred pound bale of cotton to pay for a ton. At ten cents per pound, the cotton would bring $20,000. Do the people of Folk county in tend to puv three times n3 much for legal advertising as has been custom ary for the past two years, for no oth er reason than that u “political put” of some of the officers may be sup ported from the heavy charges? Rend communication of “Junius” iu this paper, and then act upon tho suggestion. Do our county officers pay over to their “political pot” all they collect for legal advertising, or do they keep a portion of it in order to “make themselves safe ?” 'I'lie Conventions Mr. Editor:—If we are to have i convention, I know of no man more suitable to represent Polk than Mi. R. W. Everett. He is a man of sound, honest mind, and thoroughly imbued with a spirit of economy. Mora than all, ho is terribly iu eurnest about all he does, and here lies I lie ilifiic.il y with most men wo elect to offi:-. They are given to favoring economy or measures for police-’h Hike, with out the least earnestness or serious- mss of intention, and swerve flow duty for the sake of gftini; g friends political. They hollow ’‘wolf!’’ till they get the necessary s; pport to put them in office, and lo! when their purpose is accomplished, they are “cheek by jole” with the wolf, and choke off their supporters wdh some trilling subterfuge. We want a man in tne convention who means what he says, and will do it despite “big no- tious” of big men so-called. A man who has neither friend or foe, so i.n as fav.r or uffeciiou is concerned, but who is for right, f >r saving the peo ple’s money and will do it. Such a man is R. W. Everett. Sen d him. Junius. New York Treadle Mf’g Co. 04 Corllnudt Street, N. Y fob. 2 ly This standard article is compound ed with the greatest care. Its effects are as wonderful and as satisfactory as ever. It restores gray or faded hair to its youthful color. It removes all eruptions, itching and dandruff. It gives the head a cooling, soothing sensation of great comfort, ’and the scalp by its use becomes white and clean. By its tonic properties it restores the capillary glands to their normal vigor, preventing baldness, and mik ing the hair grow thick and strong. As a dressing, nothing has been found so effectual or desirable. A. A. Hayes, M.D., State Assayer of Massachusetts, says, “The con stituents are pure, and carefully se lected for excellent quality ; and J consider it the Best Preparation for its intended purposes.” Price, One Dollar* Buckin.gh.8Lm’3 Bye FOR THE WHISKERS.
