Tne City Council have done well in making Mr. Dobson their clerk. On Saturday morning the 18th inst. the mercury fell to 14 degrees above zero. The oat and wheat crop, of which there was a goodly quantity sown, looks well. G n. Ythng, who lias been in Washington for several weeks, is daily expected home. The election off Mr. M. P. Maxwell city marshal meets with general probation, lie is a worthy citizen aid will make a good officer. : \t!. Gilbert had a regular old fash , and corn-shucking at his place on Ihursday night last. Hudgins was there, you bet. Mr. AbeFreiselben, of West Point, a friend of other days, was in the city on Monday. Abe expects to be happy before long. Mr. W. W. Seay, of the live Rome suve and llollow-waro Works, call ed upon us last night. We are al ways glad to see such men. Mr. Thos. Wall, formerly tele graph operator here, left Saturday morning last for Barnesville, where lie takes charge of the telegraph office. Mr. Robert L. Williams, a fine harm ss maker and worthy young man, left here on Monday morning to take up his residence at West Point, Ga. The editor of this paper respectful ly returns his thanks to the Carters villi' Band for tlie exquisite serenade given his family a few nights since. The young men play elegantly, and their t and is of intrinsic value to Cartersville. Those of our city subscribers who fail to get their papers on Thursday morning will confer a favor by letting it he known at this office. Our car rier has to learn his route before he delivers the papers promptly. The cold weather makes printing on a power press very difficult with stiff ink. We hope to have winter ink for printing our next issue, when we will make a better appearance. We have been greatly annoyed by the bad press work on our paper. One of the most convenient conve niences in town is the handsome city express wagon of Mr. PI. S. Best. He rums it to accommodate his customers by delivering all goods sold from his store, and to perform such other er rands as may be desired by such a vehicle. It is a superb affair. The business of our city has seusi b. improved. The hurry and bus tle for the last two weeks, remind us of the old days of prosperity. Wag ons from sixty to eighty miles dis tant roll over our streets laden with wheat, corn, oats, pork, lumber and ores, returning home with family '■applies, merchandise, etc. The grand-daughter of Mr. Peter Marsh, of this city, who was burned o.i death last week, we are authorized to state, was not left alone in the room as we published it. We regret this error, but assure the friends of the liUle girl it was made inadver tently. We deeply sympathize with the bereaved and would not inten tionally make any statement the least unpleasant to them. Come to Cartersville! Corn 50 cents a bushel, pork well fattened 8 e atsjat low prices, turkeys, chickens, eggs and butter at very reasonable rates.

TUo \alue of lier rrol’erty and the Small Depreciation from last Year. Lartow is one of the best counties in the State. The tax digest shows that, notwithstanding the extreme stringency of the times and the gen eral depreciation of property of all kinds, Bartow makes an exhibit in ferior to no other county in the val uation of her property. This is ow ing to the thriftiness of her farmers and business men generally. The following are the aggregates taken from the tax books of the present year. The number of polls is 2,868, and the total number of acres of lands is 305,224. The following are the VALUATIONS : Aggregate value of 1and5...52,045,981 Aggregate value of city or town property 602,860 Amount of money and sol vent debts of all kinds... 691,575 Amount of merchandize 153.905 Stocks and bonds 53,205 Value of household and kitchen furniture above the value of 825 95,920 Plantation and mechanical tools above the value of 825 18,930 Value of all other property not before enumerated except annual crops, pro- * visions, Ac., 408;490 Value of property of default ers not doubled 9,610 Aggregate value of whole property 4,141,176 Special tax on professions, Ac., 635 Amount of tax on {soils • - (some doubled) 3,155 The aggregate value of all property for 1874 was £4,365,559, making the depreciation for the present year, $223,383, or a fraction over 5 percent. It seems to be the belief among many that the city property of Car tersviile has depreciated 25 per cent., but the tax books do not show it by one-fourth of that amount. The property of Cartersville was return ed last year at 8-189,910, and the pres ent year $461,220, making the depre ciation only $28,720, or a fraction less than 6 per cent. When we take into consideration the great shrinkage in all values, caused by.the panic of 1873, the bad management of the financial affairs of the Federal government and the withdrawal of a great deal of the currency from circulation, we think Bartow county makes a most admir able showing. Our people certainly have cause to feel proud of their county. Buy your Christmas goods from \. D. VAN DIVE JiH, West Main street. Meeting of Teachers’ Institute. Cartersville, Dec. 20th, 1875. Teachers’ Institute met according to adjournment. Vice President Harris in the chair. Religious ex ercises by Mr. H. J. McCormick. Minutes of last meeting read and confirmed. The report of Committee on Constitution laid over from last meeting for adoption, acted upon. Constitution read and adopted. Ac cording to programme, Prof. Mc- Cormick gave very interesting and instructive continuation of his lec ture on English Grammar. How to teach, by Miss S. It.

The hospitalities of the place have been tendered to the members of the Institute, and we hope there will be a full attendance. All are invited to be present and witness the exercises. J. M. Harris, V. P. R. Jo PfNSTON, Sec’y. Bad Printing. Apologies in regard to to the print ! ing of a paper we abhor ; but we are | forced to apologize for the bad press work of The Express since it came into our hands. The press is anew machine to us, and we had to lear to run it on correct principles. We thought we had learned to run the press pretty well, and did get a tol erably fair impression of our paper last week. This week, in printing the first ami fourth pages, or first side, of the paper, the weather was so cold, (and the ink was made for summer use) that we could not get; anything like a respectable impres sion. If there i3 any annoyance greater to a printer than another it is bad printing. We have ordered win ter ink and hope to have it in time for “our next.” If we have to apol ogise another time, behanged if we don’t throw away our commission and make no more promises about a handsome sheet. We have nothing to abuse this week except the bad weather and stiff ink. Masonic Elections. The following are the officers elect ed for the current year: Cartersville Lodge, No. 301. — S. 11.

CIIRISTMAL DAY. The Great Festival of the Nativity of our Savior Jesus Christ. As our paper is published two days before Christmas it may be appro priate and pleasant reading for many of our patrons to have something to say of the nature of the great festival of Christmas. The Episcopal, Cath olic, Greek, Lutheran and perhaps other churches are very particular in the observance of Christmas day as the nativity of the Savior. Wherever there is a church or congregation of cither, appropriate services to the oc casion are held in conformity with prescribed ritual. For the observation of this festi val they claim the authority of the primitive Church. Although there is no certain evidence of the exact time when it was first observed, it was very early observed all over the West. The immemorial of it. is proof of the primitive institution. While it is considered of inferlo moment, whether the 25th of Decem ber bo the real anniversary of Christ’s birth, the matter of real importance with the churches named is that particular day be set apart for cele brating with proper gratitude and devotion, the blessed event of the Savior’s nativity. The Episcopal Church with which we are most familiar, in her services for the day, both excites and assists the devotion of her children. In her first lesson she reads to her people the'dearest prophesies rtf Christ’s coming in the flesh; ami in the sec ond lessons, and in tlie epistle and gospel, she shows the completion of those prophesies by giving the en tire history of Ilis birth. In the col lect she teaches to pray that her chil dren may be partakers of the benefits of Ids birth, and in the proper psalms she employs them in the duty of praising and glorifying God for this incomprehensible mystery. Christmas day is held in great rev erence by the churches referred to, and is a day of rejoicing in each of the communions. Services will be held in Ascension Church in this place on Saturday morning, to which the people are re spectfully invited to attend. INFELICE and oilier now books, W. H. WIKLE & CO. GEORGE WASHINGTON. An Original Piece of MS. from His Own Hand. Mrs. Joyner, wife of Rev. R. W. Joyner, of Ascension church in this place, has in her possession the docu ment below from the “Father of his Country” in his own handwriting, and is the original copy of it as sent “to the General Assembly of Virgin ia.” Mrs. Joyner is a relative of the Lee family, of which Gen. R. E. Lee is a member. Her great-grandfather was clerk cr secretary of the General Assembly when the document copied below was read, and the letter found among his papers after his death: To the General Assembly of Vir ginia : Gentlemen —For your address, be pileased to accept my acknowledge ments. That any services of mine should have produced a declaration of the friendship and gratitude of the Leg islature of Virginia, cannot but be as pleasing as it is honorable to me, whose highest ambition has been, by faithfully and zealously serving my country to the utmost of my abilities, in all the public employ ments of my life, to merit ihe appro bation of my fellow-citizens. It is with" unfeigned thankfulness for the goodness of a kind Providence that I look forward to the period when the first wishes of my heart are to be gratified in returning once more to private occupation in the shades of rural retirement.

Who doesn’t know the jolly old sou! who bears the above name and j newspaper connection ? He is a spry i old man and is as fond of a good ' thing as smaller men are. When lie is out in the backwoods upon his mission of drumming for the Constitu tion, he doesn’t mind attending a shindig occasionally. He is, also, in | favor of James for Governor. While j in Douglass county a few days ago, the old man whiled away the tedium | of the shades of evening by attend ing a rural party, where everybody was for James, kiuiolks and all. He heard the new song “for James,” and remembers only a verse, which lie hums to special friends: It runneth thus : “What kind of a man do you think I am, And do yon think I’ll do ? Doggone my skin it I ain’t a John James man, And all iny children too.’’ When the sonorous voice of our friend swells out upon the last line the mefody of the music is simply inspiring until one remembers the old man lias no children. African M. E. Church Conference. The North Georgia Methodist A. E. Church has just closed its an nual session in our city. W'e under stand there was in attendance about one hundred preachers. They were a fine body of men, and managed their business with remarkable dis patch and appeared to be happy and prosperous in their operations. They were presided over by Bishop Ward, formerly of California, who is indeed a man of decided ability and pos sessed of a catholic spirit. Their preaching was very good, especially the sermons preached on Sunday morning and evening by Revs. Stew art and Peck. Their mission seemed to be strictly to preach the gospel as a denomination. They know no North, no South, no East, no West. Have nothing to do with politics. They lwve made a fine impression upon our community. We bid them God speed. We are sorry-we- cannot give a list of the appointments this week. CITY COUNCIL. The I’niceeeings of the Two First Meet ings of the New Board. December 15, 1875. ilis Honor, F. M. Ford, mayor, and A.

We can and must reduce them. The County Court is abolished and that is a great help. Now reduce the pay of jurors to $1 03 or 81.50 a day, and that will save a large sum, and again, hire for a salary, a good business man to receive tax returns and col lect the same. There is positively no use in employing two men to do one man’s labor. There are many capable business men from whom we Could select one, who could do all the business connected now with our tax system who could he employed for a yearly salary of one thousand dollars, and then, be much better paid then our fanners, merchants and professional men, who, if they nominally earn more, cannot collect more, under our odious homestead law. Surely our people should re turn to the old, sound policy of re trench meet. Were we ever less able to pay taxes than at present ? Then let us adopt some plan to lower them. Tax-Payer.

We clip the following from the Ce dartown Express , and thank our kind friend Mr. Gibson, the editor, for his truthful statements of facts in connec tion with our record: We have receiver! The Carters ville Express, Willingham’s new paper. As we predicted through these columns some weeks ago, it is a good paper, and one which we hope the good people of Bartow county will heartily support. The insinuations to the effect that Mr. Willingham went to Cartersville in t ie interest of, and to do battle for a cotton ring, whose working and ob ject were adverse to the interest of the people, is the merest stuff. His past record as an independent, fear less, bold and able defender of the people’s interest is a just, fitting and withering rebuke to the unjust charge. W e know him, and by vir tue of this knowledge unhesitatingly say that Georgia never produced a cleverer, more honest or conscientious man than Charlie Willingham. He wields a ready and potent pen and always on the side of right and jus tice, * never stopping to consider whether the advocacy of these prin ciples places him on the side of the majority or whether they impel him to struggle with the minority. Be ing a man of integrity, honest, able and sincere, he deserves, and we are confident will enlist and bring to his aid and support every good citizen in Bartow county. From the bottom of our heart, we wish him unprece dented success. We publish these, notices because we have been unjustly charged with corruption in taking charge of The Express. There is not a disinter ested or respectable editor in Geor gia who believes for a moment that we are to be bought with a price, or influenced from the right by any consideration, whatever. There is not money enough in Cartersville or Bartow county to swerve The Ex press from the cause of justice and correct principles. Since our residence here, we are glad to say, we have received noth ing but kindness from the people of this town and county, and we intend to give them a journal true to their interests, and above all little insinua tions against the honesty of others. We-defy and scorn all imputations or insinuations reflecting upon our in tegrity as a journalist. Since writing the foregoing the fol lowing notices have come to hand : Willingham is making a beautiful sheet of The Cartersville Ex press.—Chronicle and Sentinel. Under the management of Mr. C. 11. C. Willingham, one of the best journalists.in the State, and one of the most honest, The Cartersville Express is looming up as one of toe most vigorous and intelligent of our weekly papers.— Macon Telegraph. The third number of The Car tersville Express came to hand yesterday vastly improved. Mr. Willingham will prove to the people of Bartow county before he gets through with them that lie is not on ly incapable of being controlled by a ring, but that he is one of the best editors in the State. — Savannah Mews. Cartersville Express. —This paper now comes to us under the management of Mr. C. 11. C. Will ingham, formerly of the LaGrange Reporter. It is edited with that care and ability for which Mr. W. is noted among the readers ef the Reporter. We wish him the most abundant success with his new paper.— La Grange Reporter. We have received The Carters ville Express now owned anded ited by Mr. C. H. C. Willingham. It is a model weekly paper in its ty pography, editorial management and general make-up. Willingham is both an able editorial writer and a good printer, and never fails to make an interesting paper. He is now evi dently doing his best. — Columbus Times. We have received as an exchange The Cartersville (Ga.) Exxhess. We notice from the number before us that Mr. C. H. C. Willingham, formerly editor of the Rome Courier, and at o.ie time associate of Hon. A. H. Stephens in the editorial manage ment of the Atlanta Sun, has be come its editor and proprietor. It is truly said of Mr. Willingham that he is one of the nestors of Southern journalism, and his faithful and pa triotic services in the interests of our section is generally acknowledged. He is as well and favorably known ;in Alabama as Georgia, and his name alone is sufficient to insure suc cess to The Express. We are glad to learn that our old and esteemed friend, Cornelius Willingham, is al so engaged on The Express with his father. Cornelius is a chip off the old block, and we wish him, as we do his father, success, financially and otherwise. — Monroeville, [Ala.) Journal. These notices, as will be seen, are from some of the best papers in the South, and from the jiens of gentle men who have been familiar with our journalistic record for many years, some of them reaching back nearly a quarter of a century. We assure our friends we deeply feel their kindness in defending us from a baseless and silly charge which is bound to react upon those making it in the minds of all true men. Avoid a frowning wife and “trouble in the camp” by buying some of that extraordinary mince meat from A. D. VANDIVEIiE. Revenue. —C. T. Warren, Depu |ty Collector, whose headquarters have been in this city received orders on Tnesday last to report to Atlanta, : and went down yesterday morning. As Conley takes Brown's place it is uncertain whether Warren will be returned. Be that as it may, we can safely say that the Deparnment is not likely to get a man more vigilhnt in the discharge of his duties than Mr.. Warren has been and at the same time more prudent than lie has been. He has conducted the affairs well and that without any unnecessary arrests. Rom i Courier. Holiday Goods! W. H. WIKLE & CO. Boston, December 16-The medical commissioners appointed by the city council to investigate The sanitary condition of the city, report that near ly two thirds of the people in Boston are foreigners and their offspring; and of this proportion two-thirds are Irish. DENNIS YANDIVERE has just received a large lot of mince meat, kraut, cabbage, pig’a leet, and everything you want for a big Christ mas dinner. Ex-Gov. John C Bbown, ot Ten nessee, has been tendered, and has-ac cepted, the vice-presidency of the Texas Pacific railway company. Brownlow (Republican) says that ex-Senator Henderson (Republican) is “a sneak.” And this, because the latter, in pushing a criminal suit one ot the pets of Gen. Grant, held the Administration responsible for the frauds perpetrated upon the Gov ernment by its particular proteges. The country is in urgent need of sev eral more such ’’sneaks “ Georgia is poor; of course, she is. How con’d she be otherwise when she spent last year for mules and hor ses raised in other states $1,000,780? These animals cost SIOO ahead in the average when they could have beeu raised at home S6O a head. And yet only 6035 are annually foaled in the state. The vote on the Holman resolution it is believed in Washington has indu ced Tom Scott to abandon his enor mous Texas Pacific subsidy scheme after the presidential election. If this be true, what a host of editorials have been writen out of season! Smith, late of the Indian bureau which he left fm his country’s good, has been provided for. He has been unanimously elected president of the Howard university. He plucked the Indians, and now he will pluck the freedmen. Postmaster General Jewell declines to allow the use of his name as the republican candidate for Gov ernor of Connecticut When President Grant heard of Blaine's refusal to vote on the third term question he is reported to have said: “Blaine is not in anybody's way so he need not be so and and careful.” It now seems settled that the Mississippi Legislature will impeach both Gov. Ames and Lieut. Gov. Davis. The case against the latter is thought to be much the stronger. ML SALTER S SPEt IALTIES.
