The Caitersville Express. COIiMEL lUS WIL LIXGIIA M, Editor. For the cause that lacks assistance, For the wrong that needs resistance , For the future in the distance , And the good that ire can do. ( iii leisville, Ga„ Thursday, Jan. 201 h, 1881 Mr. C. H. Williams is redeeming the Atlanta Gazette. It is now the paper it ought to be and the society people of Atlanta ought to sustain it. The Thomasville Enterprise boasts that Thomasville is one Georgia town that is out of debt. You may score the same thing for Cartersville. Bhe doesn’t owe a cent. ... Up to the hour of going to press Garfield’s cabinet has not been filled. If all the men who have been ad vanced for cabinet positions were put together in Bartow, the old county would run ovei at the brim. — ———— ———— The Slate papers have already gone into Governor-making. Probably it is the fault of the papers after all that elections in this state have got ten to be so disgraceful. For de cency’s sake, gentlemen, let up. Thojeditor of the Sunny South no tifies the country press that it can no longer exchange with them. Will Mr. President Estill please call a meeting of the Georgia Tress Asso ciation immediately, that appropriate resolutions of thanks to the S. S. may be passed. They had a gauzily dressed bur lesque opera company in Atlanta re cently. One of the actresses lost her costume and the show wa3 about to stop, when the Coroner-General of the city, who was in the audience, kindly loaned a white necktie and the performance went on as usual. The people of Home will not be idle. They are now going to have a lager beer brewery, an ice factory, a cotton factory an extensive flour mill, a grain elevator of large di mensions, another daily paper and the Georgia Press Convention. — <>► The remainder of the State press have had so many good things con gratulatory to Harry Edwards, city editor of the Macon Telegraph , upon his happy marriage to Miss Roxie Lane, of that city, that there is noth ing left for us but to waft from a sin cere heart the simple God bless you and yours. The Atlanta Post-Appeal keeps up splendidly, contrary predictions to the contrary notwithstanding. It gives the very latest news served in a style combining raciness with proper dignity. A splendid weekly edition ot this paper is also issued. Parties wishing them can get The Express and the weekly Post-Ap peal one year for two dollars. From our court proceedings it will be seen that Mr. J. M. Elliott has Again received a verdict against the Western & Atlantic Railroad—this time for $-1,750. This is the fourth verdict in favor of the complainant and proceedings fora new trial will doubtless begin immediately. If this thing is to be kept up wo cry for a change of venue. The case has cost liar tow hundreds of dollars and the tax-payers arc; awfully tired of it. * * * “With energy, iudhstry and per. severe nee, coupled with ability, The Express can bo vastly improved, as there is sufficient room for it since June 1, IS7B.— Free Press- As* the present editor of Tiie Ex press was an humble participant in producing the excellencies of the old paper during the year mentioned it is altogether unnecessary for us to tax our modesty by saying that per haps some of the old life will return to the sheet. Cornelius "Willingham Las takeu charge of The Cartebsville Express, and will buck against bis father, wlio is running the Car tcrsville Free Press. Both arc lively jour nalists and will have a lively tilt.— Albany Neics-A dve.it iser. Several of our brethren have made similar allusions as the above in re gard to our editorship of this paper. We desire to say that we do not, nor would we, had we the ability, “buck against” our respected father. As long £S the town lasts there will doubtless be published two papers here. They have both, heretofore, gained a sustenance for their respec tive publishers. We see no reason why either should discontinue or why we shull not bo allowed to go along quietly iu our humble effort to present a readable village paper with our having it “norated” that w*e are “bucking against” our father. As The Express is twenty-four years old and the Free Fress only a two year-old bantling it is not wild to say that it is the the latter paper that is doing the “bucking.” In the meantime our job presses are turning out the finest job work. SWEET CHARITY. The beuevolent citizens of our cap ital city, Atlanta, have for the past three years been engaged in a lauda ble effort to establish an hospital. To-day the only one that exists there is the one now in charge of the Sisters of Mercy, and is called the Sisters’ Hospital. The good it has accom plished can never be told on earth. The good it is doing can only be told by those suffering ones whose needs are being ministered to by the loving hands of that noble band of women upon whom the world looks with such love and admiration. Their work is arduous, and to carry it on requires the aid and encouragement of every citizen of Atlanta. A con. stant outlay of money is required and no hand should be stinted w hen it responds to the call of these noble women. We are sorry to learn that the Sis ters’ Hospital is meeting with oppo sition,—from those, too, who profess to call themselves Christians. The ground of opposition is that the in stitution is one for the inculcation and promulgation of Catholicism. Au effort is consequently being made to establish another one. The most meagre financial support has been given this, the only hospital in the city, and now that little support is sought to be divided. Suffering will go on while Christians struggle as to which religious denomination will give relief. The result is plain: a consummate failure to provide for those who may be unfortunate enough to seek the shelter and care of au hospital. Be it Catholic or Protestant, let Atlanta support the only hospital it has or probably ever will have. New Advertisements. For Sale! A Half-Ayrshire Cow with young Calf. Apply to Dr. J. T.
