What crowds go and go to Atlan
ta ! Day after day trains are full of
people. It will be bad if they all
decide to return at one time.
Mrs. J. C. Anderson, of Griffin, and
Miss Ada Beck, of Kingston, are
visiting the family of Mr. J. Q. A.
Lewis, at the National, Dalton.
Col. Geo. B. Cowlam, U. S. claim
agent, with headquarters at Knox
ville, arrived yesterday on a brief
visit to his family who are stopping
at the St. James.
While Mr. Gus. and “Chuck” An
derson, of Marietta, were riding out
one day last week, the horsa ran
away, killed the former and se
riously injured the latter.
Mr. and Mr-. E. E. Freeman, Car
tersville; Mrs. Dr. It. F. Wright,
Daiton ; and Rev. J. M. Phillips and
wife, Chattanooga; were of the pas
sengers to Atlanta yesterday.
It frequently happens that severe

On the oth inst.. at the residence of
Mr. Frank Whiteside Chattanoo
ga, Mr. C. B. of Atlanta, led
to the marital altar, Miss May Slat
ter, a most charming woman. Many
friends wish them much happiness.
Members of the Georgia Press are
invited to a complimentary break
fast at the Kimball uext Wednesday.
President Estill did not accept, at
once, the tender of a special train by
Gov. Brown to leave Atlanta at 7
o’clock instead of 5 a. ra., but it *.vas
certainly an oversight. Our good peo
plo don’t get up early and it is not
most pleasant to have company ar
rive for breakfast.
All persons who can and who will offer
their carriages or vehicles for a ride to
points of interest near the city, on
Wednesday evening next, at 3 or 4
o’clock, will please leave their names
with .T. C. Wofford, depot agent, and
state how many they can accommodate.
Thau’cs to our neighbor for valua
ble assistance in this issue of the
Express. Having located in Carlers
ville, for the summer at least, we
have been necessarily engaed much
of the time in “getting moved.”
Our friend, Bill Arp, i3 wanted to
give an account of breakage and the
incidents.
An incorrect impression has gone
out to the effect that cotton is seri
ously injured in this section by the
recent cold weather. Very little
damage has occured, so far as we can
learn, except to check, simply the
growth of cotton as well as corn and
wheat. There is a limited supply of
of peaches in this section. Apples
are more abundant, and the crop is
growing fast.
The January term of the Bartow supe
rior court was adjourned to Monday last.
!n consequence of providential causes,
Judge MeCutelien could not be present,
but ordered the court to stand adjourned
until next Monday. Jurors and litigants
will take due notice and govern them
selves accordingly. The jurors for the
present week were discharged by the
clerk on Monday by order of the judge;
hut the jurors summoned for the second
and tail'd weeks are required to l>c in at
tendance as summoned.
The Bartow furnace, together with
more than a thousand acres of land, in
cluding a good farm, was sold by the
sheriff under an execution on Tuesday
last, and bid off for five thousand dollars
by Gen. W. T. Wofford, as we under
stand, for E. P. Cook, of New York, who
held a mortgage upon the property for
the purchase money. This is one of the
finest furnaces in the state and we trust
the times will soon warrant the present
proprietor in putting it into operation.
Members of the following commit
tees, to wit: General, Reception,
Transportation, Finance, Place of
Meeting and Music, are invited and
urged to be prompt in attending a
meeting at the Opera House this
evening at 4 o’clock. The committee
of the city council wish to confer
with them. Particulars will be ex
plained at the meeting. This request
comes through Win. Iv. Huse, secret
tary of the city council committee.
The Free Press has a good circu
lation. This statement we have made"
frequently, and we have no doubt it
is true. It has been our pleasure to
so represent. However, we have no
right to know what it really is, and
we do not intend to insinuate in a
comparative sense that it is not
better than the New York Herald.
But if the Sheriff or any other official
of the county desires to advertise in
the journal ot “largest circulation,” we
shall not complain if we don’t get it.
In tact, no complaint has been made.
A temporary reduction in circula
tion in order to carry out the cash
system, should hardly make our
neighbor frantic. Let those who
want to reach the largest audience
try us aod see whether onr neighbor
knows more than we do cf our own
business.
The American Bible Society, of
New York, are now offering neatly
printed Bibies for twenty-five cents,
and Testaments for five cents. To
the trade these books are sold at a re
duction of ten per cent, on the cata
logue price. The books are well
printed and are a wonder of chap
ness.
Memorial Service* at Ca**vllle
The Secretaty of the Memorial
Association issues the following:
Saturday, May 10th, 1879. Memorial
prayer by Rev. Mr. Ryburn. Oration by
Jno. W. Akin, Esq. Decoration of the
graves of the heroic confederate dead af
ter the delivery of the oration.

inated and carried on by our own moth
ers and sisters, are cordially invited to
attend the cemetery on that day and by

silky softness, nicer than ever before.
There is no Dandruff, no falling hair,
and it leaves the scalp so clean and
nice and cool that I am ever so much
pleased, and I feel and look like
myself again.” The beautiful, fresh
and vigorous hair it produces, to
gether with its property of restoring
gray or faded hair to the natural
youthful color, and entirely freeing
the head from dandruff and itching
surprises no less than it pleases

“ALL ALONG THE LINE.”
Kingston.
By requestor some kind friends, I
step to the front once more, and will
divide time with the Free Press. The
inquiry has been made by your spicy
reporter at Adairsville, “what has
become of Peter Piper?” and with
many thanks to her for the flattering
notice of myselt and family, I will
state we are all alive, having passed
through serious iafflictions, had
measles for ray Piper, or a Piper
fur my measle, and just as the little
ones began to recover we are at
tacked with whooping caugh. Our
town has been whooping and caugh
ing for several weeks, but as spring
advances we trust all will recover.
Friday night we had a heavy frost.
Beans suffered somewhat, and Sat
urday afternoon Mrs. Piper had me
in the garden replanting beans. I
hope we will have no more frost un
til the bean crop is matured.
Wheat looks very promising; corn
and cotton look well. Our farmers
are happy: they thime this will be a
good crop yeas.
We have had the pleasureof seeing
several persons of note pass tlirough
town during the past few days, and
we must not forget to state we had
the pleasure of shaking hand3 with
Bill Arp. The Col. is looking well,
and as jovial as ever, only he seemed
to be a little disturbed at being taken
for another man. Perhaps he will
explain the matter in the Constitu
tion.,
Col. E. V. Johnson, one of our
noted citizens, has gone to Kansas
City, Mo., and if pleased will perhaps
move his family. We are loth to
give them up—they are near neigh
bors.
Mrs. W. F. Robison has gone to
Selma, Ala., to visit her relatives.
Peter Piper.
Adairsville.
Our town was honored last week
by the presence of a number of visit
ing ministers and delegates at the
district meeting of the ministers and
deacons of the “Cherokee Baptist
Association. Among the represent
atives we noticed the following: Rev.
G. D. Harris, Kingston; Rev. V. A.
Bell, Ringgold; Rev. Samuel -Turn
lin, Col. J. J. Howard and T. W.
Baxter, Sr., Cartersville, and quite a
number of others whose names we
failed to get. Questions of importance
were ably discussed, and the large
congregation attested to the interest
therein. The ladies of our town sup
plied sumptuous dinners each day,
and we sincerely hope that each vis
itor carried away some pleasant
memory of Adairsville.
We are sorry to note the resigna
tion of the president of the Literary
Ciub, Mr. W. A. Graham, who made
a most efficient president ever since
the organization. The regular meet
ing f this club was held at the resi
dence of Col. J. H. Fitten, last Fri
day night, when a social dance was
enjoyed, but the feature of the eve
ning was the superb music, furnished
by Mrs. Du Bose, of Mobile. The
South cannot boast a lady of rarer
musical culture, or one gifted with a
more exquisite voice.
Two of our most prominent phy-.
sicians are attending the American
Medical Convention in Atlanta this
week, and if a certain brown-eyed
maiden is as partail to the professors
as the junior of these two M. D’s
wishes, we will give you our account
of the wedding.
We are pleased to see in town the
charming and genial Mrs. J. L.
Hawkins, of Rome, who is accompa
nied by quite an attraction in the per
son of her sister-in-law, Miss Lizzie
Hawkins.
Mr. W. W. Martin and Mr. C. A.
Trevitt, two of Rome’s sterling bus
iness young men, and society pets,
made a visit to relatives in town on
Sundajr.
Wednesday evening upon a special
invitation, your reporter attended a
birthday party given by Master Joie
Bowdoin, and while engaged in the
games with the happy children, for
got that we were not a child, too, and
when supplied from a bountiful and
delicious supper, prepared by the
tasty hands of a mother aud sister,
we certainly wished the manly lit
tle fellow many returns of the day,
and predicted for him a useful and
happy future.
The indomitable Jim Campbell lias
not put in an appearance lately. He
is partial to the Express, and we
think the Camel is a good animal.
Just as we close, the sad news of
the death of Mrs. Donaway, residing
near this place, is received.
Feeling confident that Cartersville
will nobly sustain her reputation
during the press convention, we say
adieu, and await tne next issue anx
iously.
[ltems from Adairsville were not
in time last week, but it was not the
fault of our correspondent, whose at
tention to the various incidents and
enterprises of that section warrant us
in expecting a largely increased pat
ronage.—Ed.
“Will it Pay?” It Does Pay.
For the past week the magnificent
establishment of Austell & Mangum
has been crowded with ladies who
congregate there to purchase from
their beautiful stock of goods. This
plainly shows the value of advertis
ing. It is strange, nevertheless true,
that this firm, of scarcely a month’s
standing, has built up one of the lar
gest trades in the city; but still we
are not surprised, for they have a
class of goods which are noted for
their style and beauty, and which
please the people, and are marked
down at marvelously low prices
Just think of Alexander kid gloves
in all shades and colors selling at 50c.
per pair, and other desirable brands
at the low figures of 25c. and 15c.
This is one item of saving which sen
sible people consider, and which has
made this enterprising firm so popu
lar. We merely mention these items
because we purchased a few pairs of
these gloves and were particularly
struck with the low prices. And so
it is all through their immense stock
which is tightly packed from floor to
ceiling. Hosiery, laces, dress goods
and every article that one can call
for is marked down in comparison
with the prices given above. They
have the largest and best assorted
stock of ladies’ shoes, gaiters, etc., to
be found in the State, ranging in
prices from 75e. up. When you go
to the city, be sure and call at this
store. It is the “Stewarts” of At
lanta.—Sunday Gazette.

and fresh pure mineral wa.er direct from
Saratoga, completed a variety of refreshing
drinks which never intoxicate. If you go to
Chattanooga stop at Tschopik’s.

A Golden Opportunity.
IVanted Immediately on the line of the
International & Gt, Northern E. R.
In Texas, where it is healthy, with excel
lent Freestone water, 200 GOOD FARMERS
to rent lands upon the following conditions :
When the landlord furnishes the iand and
improvements only, anil the tenant the team,,
tools and provision, the landlord receives
from one-fourth to one-third oi the crop, and
temnt the remainder. Where the landlord
furnishes everything necessary to the making
of the crop except the provision for the fam
ily of the tenant, the crop is usually divi led
betweed the two parties. The two systems of
leasing offer Industrious poor men, and es
pecially those with considerable families, gol
den opportunities to become independe t
and the owners of farms at an early day.
Thousands of men in Texas, who are to-day
Independent and the owners of fine iarras.
made the first step towards success by
renting land in the manner described, and
many ot them purchased farms with the
profits of a single year’s lease. Of course it is
more profitable for a man to buy land and im
prove and work his own farm, if he has the
means to do so, but for those who arc de titute
of capital and possessed of industry and some
knowledge of farming, the system of renting
land lor a shar ol the crop cannot be too
highly commended.
