OUR TRIP.
The editors enjoyed last week
one of (he most pleasant (rips ii
has been our good fortune lo ex
perience in many a day. We at
tended the Georgia press con
yenlion which convened in Ma
con Thursday, 10 a. m. Alter the
usual routine of business the con
vention adjourned to meet at 3
•.d’eioek when citizens of Macon
rode t he press gang over the city
in carriages to the principal ob
jects of interest. By special in
vitation of Dr, Bass, we visited
Wesleyan Female College, were
tendered a formal reception and
enjoyed a most, delightful hour
with (his net of Georgia institu
tion*. Wesleyan has more
Sweet,handsome, vivacious and
gifted young ladies than any col
lege in the South; and many
wounded hearts among the
young members of the gang
were the result of our pleasant
brief stay with them. Wesleyan
io a badge of dielinclion among
Georgia Female colleges and an
“bmaftient to the South. At 9
in the evening we were ten
dered a snperb banquit at the
Brown House, the ‘•Kimball ol
Macon,” and an elegant affair it
was 100. Edibles of every de
scription that would tempi (lie
oppetite of man, every rich dish
known to the delecate taste of
. the caterer was spread iu lavish
profusion on Macou’s hospitable
hoard, and well did she sustain
her fatuous reputation fot whole-
unstinted hospitality.
„of appropriate nature

elick of time to a late TViMPfI the
visit was rile with pleasantries
and the brief sojourn of the
Ueoig a press will carry with
them endearing memories of the
princely entertainment which
Macon cast at our feet. Slio is a
beautiful city, broad streets,
shadowy aisles, stately residences,
hospitable people, aud boasts of
her proud appellation, "the city of
colleges.” llurah for Macon I
"she is a boss town,” as editor
Mumford says. The convention
then adjourned to meet in Savan
nah at the Chatham Aarlillery
Centennial, after a visit to Atlan
ta to witness the unveiling of the
UiH monument. The next annu
al convention of the press con
venes in Valdosja when a trip to
Cuba win eo iu>r< hy iiio body.
We met Mr. W. F. Combs, a
former editor ot the Courier, and
were the guests of the bounteous
hospitality and courtesies which
his genial soul so freely bestowed,
lie is known to all our readers
and needs no introduction.
Friday morning the gang vis
ited Atlanta by invitation ol Gov.
McDaniel, leaving Sunday for
Savannah. The unveiliug of the
Mill monument and the visit ol
kx-Prestdent Jefferson Davis to
Atlanta will be one of the most
eonspieuons events in the history
of Georgia. Fully 40,000 people
witnessed the proceedings, and
this vast, enthusiastic throng
gave Mr. Davis the grandest ova
tion ever tendered aiuan by Hie
commonwealth of Georgia.
Men were frantic with exoite
meut and shouted bursts of wel
come to the hero of the lost
cause and expressions of admira
tiou for the image of him
whose memory this great con
vention was to celebrate. The
Workmanship is a masterpiece oi
the sculptor's chisel and bears
the unmistakable imprint of the
illustrious Georgian’s greatness.
At the conclusion of the main
exercises Mr. Davis wa9 intro
duced and one grand shout of
applause went up from the un
covered heads of that, vast army
of spectators as they hung up
toe on the words of this illustri
ous Southerner. Miss Winnie
Davis, daughter ol president Di
vis who was born during the
close of the war, was (hen pre
sented to the crowd as ‘'the
daughter of the confederacy,”
and no one save those present
cwuld imagine the wild enthusi
asm which greeted this hand
some idol of the South. The
demonstration troughout was
grand and iudecribable, and will
be rscuried to in the generations
to corneas the time when Davis
Hist visited Georgia. Many a
youth caught a lirst and last
glimpse of Ilia man whose for
tunes their sires followed on the
ensanguined battle holds of our
Southland.

We notice from our worthy

i‘KTI ON.

Shall we take woman from her
place around . the hearthstone,
where she can do, and is doing so
mll jeh good towards reforming Ijjc
world and place her where site
eau never reach the heart ol man?
Some may object to this course ol
reasoning by saying it is not plac
ing her in office simply to allow
her to vote, and only the more
depraved and ambitious women
ould run for office. This would
be hue al first, but the gnod wo
men would have to come forward
to fight the bad,and then
“Vico is a monster of so frightful a mien,
As to tie tinted, needs hut to lie seen;
Yet seen too oft, familiar with his face,
We first cndare.then pity,then emblace"
comes in Give her the bal
lot ami all creation can’t keep her
out ot office.
Admit, which I by no means do,
•hat she is able both physically
and mentally to disci urge the du
ties of government ollicials, can
man lake her place at home? Ah
this is “where the shoe pinches.”
The old song, “she who rocks the
cradle rules the world,” is true;
and lecognizing this, is it any
wonder we ot the South dread to
see her leave her place at home,
(so well filled) and go out into the
cold atmosphere of politics. It is
not want of appreciation of her
many good and noule qualities
that prompts us to oppose woman
Buflrage; but the blessed memory
of our sainted mothers, our almost
unparalleled affection for the
softer sex, and our anxiety for the
purity ot the home circle prompts
to fight it. Talk about selfishness
and bigotry prompting us to op
pose this measure. 1 tell you the
snows that fall on Mt. Washington
are not purer than the motives
which begat this opposition; the
fresh dew-laden zephyrs from the
orange groves of the South are
not sweeter than the hopes this
opposition inspires; the flight ol
our own symbolic eagle, though
he blow his breath on the sun, is
not higher than its expected des
tiny! the end.
HE TALKS SESSE
Dkar Courier:
Hie bright new appearance of
fbur paper this week inspires me
to mention my crowing apprecia
tion of the efiorts of the editors to
make Ellijay, Oilmer, North
Georgia, and the Uoußian take a
leading place in the business of
the slate, and show a strong hand
in controlling public opinion am!
guiding public initial. Through i
the co-operation of th< go>> < 0.....
pie of that section the ('ofluKH
under its picswut u..,.,, t i
bound to succeed, and this mean* I
the building up, of not only pub- j
lie interesl, but the private busi- I
lies, of every individual. The
earlier the people recognize the
importance of a local newspapci
which speaks ol the homes, and
larms and products of their own
section, the earlier their lauds,
>heir slock, their products, then
minerals, their water power*
their lumber, will demand a high
er price. For the busy and busi
ness world learns of their exist
ence in no other way so surely
amt so quickly as through the
medium of the press.
1 wish every citizen of GiltnFr,
Fannin and Pickens counties, es
pecially, would realize each his
duly to, and -interest in, taking
their county paper. It is no doubt
interesliug to all friends to learn
from the COVRISR that their is a
probability that the projected
Augusta Chattanooga K. It. will
intersect the M & N G. at Ellijay.
I conceive cf no event that could
more surely guarantee the rapid
buildii g up of that section than
this. If the failure of this deserv
ed boon is attributable to any
lack of effort on the part of the
immediate section, the near fut
ure will bring its regrets, and
show the depressing results oi
waiting and ennui when a neigh
boring town is reaping the’re

OUR COUNTY.
A Graphic Pen Picture by One
Who Knows Our Resources,
Wealth, Etc. Etc.
The followiug articlo is an ex
Iracl Gem a recent sheet sent out
by E. \V. Coleman real estate
agent, Ellijay, Ga., lo inquiries
concerning this section and its
various characteristics. It is a
fine advertisement for North
Georgia and gives our readers an
idea of the light in wnich our sec
tion is represented to the the
many inquiring capitalists of the
union.
|' I */iRIUA*JHE EPTUK STATE OF
BETTER AD V ££ P
GRANTS THAN ANY OTHER PART
OF THE UNION.
I wUh to cal) especial attention of
Northern emigrant* to the many advant
age* ami resources ot North Georgia, or so
nineb Aa ties aim* the into of twPManl'ni
& North Georgia Railroad. This wetion
has long been unknown to emigrants and
capitalists on account of a lack of railroad
facilities, but the M. & N. G. R. R. is
opening up this section and showing it to
lie unsurpassed hy any section in the
Boutli. Its vast mineral end agricultural
rtsouioes and manufacturing facilities are
not excelled anywhere east of the Missis
sippi river. We do not present a well
developed country, but a country that
abounds in resources and facilities that
will soon make it the most desirable sec
tion for n home anywhere in the South.
TUB IIKAl.TI! OK THIS BKOTION.
We are justly proud of the healthiest
section nr the Uuited IStates. The last
Census shows that Fannin is the healths
iest, and Gilmer the next healthiest eoun -
ties in the United States. This is
speaking a gieat deal for our section ; hut
it is it fact, and one that emigrants should
look into while they aie hunting a home.
'this is rather a mountainous section;
hut our lands arc very rich. We have
numerous beautiful nud rich valleys, and
our frills aud mountaius are rich black
lands that produce, when cleared, almost
everything that is raised upon a farm: and
tlie original forests abound in almost
every kind ot timber. We have cherry,
walnut, maple, poplar, pines, cedar, chest
nut, hickory auii oak in great abundance,
and a great many other less-important
timbers.
1 will give a faint description of our
mineral, agricultural aud manufacturing
advantages.
MINERAL.
In abundance, variety and richness of
minerals, 1 feel safe in saying, no section
east of the Mississippi river is equal to
North Georgia. W e have gold, silver,
copper, uickle, marble, talc, magnetic and
other irou ores, manganese, plumbago,
antimony, asbestos, mill-stone, building
stone, soap-stone, granite,dlate and a great
many other minerals ami stones of almost
every description. Our marble is in vast
beds of miles in extent, and of the finest
quality. A great deal of it is equal to the
Vermont amt Italian marble, and surpass
es other marble fot building purposes. It
is easy te quarry and great facilities for
working. 1 have some very flue marble
to put upon the market.
This country is opening up some very
fine gold raiuos. For iustance, it is esti
mated that over one-lialf of a million dol
lars have been takeu out of the famous
i\ liitcpath gold mine, aud between $200,-
000 aud $300,000 out of the Cartecay
mine, both being placer mines. 1 am now
prepariug for the market some as valuable
mines as these I have spoken of. Among
them is the noted Heath mine. This
mine is a very large quartz yeiu which is
very rick and of great extern. This mine
will bear the closest examination, and all
practical miners consider it a very impor
tant mine. 1 also have** some very flue
copper mines for sail-—mines that' have
been opened up and examined by practical
copper miners, and prouonneed excellent
I can furnish all the minerals 1 have
mentioned and in quantities that will pay,
except nickle,talc and m.iugauese.
AQKICULTCKAL.
The land of this c.-untiy is rich and
capable of lieiug raised to u very high
slate of cultivation. Wo have uuuieious
beautiful and fertile valleys that produce
abuudam o of corn, w heat, ryteoatsclover, !
grass, etc. Our system of farming has
run our farms down some ; hut with care 1
they can be raised very muo<>. Our hot- |

ire in the fruit crop iu this section far
iftv years. This ia a record that cannot
* surpassed by any country, and one that
t bound to make tbia section the leading
fjuit set-lion of the United Slates.
Tliia i* also a very fine tobacco raising
country. This fhet has beeu thoroughly
demonstrated by a few of our farmers
who have made a clear profit of SIOO to
S2OO per acre. Tills is an industry that is
opening up in this country, and will soon
make our land that is now selling for $2
|>er acre be worth $lO to s*o per acre.
MANCrACTURIXO.
There is no country that offers greater
inducements in manufacturing than this
country, In this manufacltning age, and
wheie there is so much competition, that
manufacturing establishment which can
run with the least cost is the one that is
successful. The continual aud heavy
drain that is necessary in running machin
ery by steam, hag very. plainly demon
strated the fact that steam ptfwer cannot
compete with water-(tower, everything
being equal. This country offers advant
ages iu water-power that are not equalled
anywhere. We have water-power ranging
from a 1 horse-power to 4,000 horse
bower, on or neat the lailroad. I can
furnish watsr-power of 10 horse-power ou
the railroad to a 4,000 horse-power a few
miles front the railroad. Within a radius
of two miles from this place at least 2,000
horse power can be placed upon the
nmrkel, and all near the railroad. With
ihcse great natural advantages, together
with the fact that the law material of al
most every descsiption, nod in great abun
dance, is at our doors, will in the future
make Fllijay a numufacturiag city of no
1 tile im/.0-tauce. We are iu a word
growing mid cotton raising section and
surrounded on all sides with as line timber
as manufacturers could ask to make wags
one, buggies, plows, chairs, axe haadles
and all kinds of furniture. EMijny uow
offers advantage* to manufacturers and
capitalists that no other place in the
South can. I can furnish a water-power
of almost any size—a 10, 20, SO, 100, 400
or 2,000 horse-power. A wood manu
facturing establishment at this place will
pay largely at the present.

To Stock Btisers-
Being greatly encouraged in the
stock ra sng business by the patronage
of so many farmers, and at the solicita
tion of more than one hundred solid
s’oek raising eitizens who have prom
ised my stock their patronage in the
future, to the exclusion of all others, as
l am the first man who was willing to
invest muoh money in the enterprise
and as I expect to Ifhep every year such
stock as the stockraisea need I have de
cided to buy and keep on hand a fine
Stallion, several fine Jacks and a fine
Jersey Bull. This business will no t
pay more than one man in a county,
and as I am the pioneer in the business
and expeot to make it permanent and
treat everybody right. I respeotfully
ask all the farmers to unite in giving
me their encouragement in building up
and making permanent this much need
ed business. It will repay all concern
ed. If you have no good brood mare,
trade for one, and let me insist that ev
ery land owner should plant all the
grass and clover possible. It
makes Kentucky’s fine horses,and
makes the Texas cattle king rich.
I will buy the seed at wholesale
cost. Talk I his to your neighbors.
Very respectfully,

A Word to Workers.
I! your avocations are mentally or
physically laborious. if they s object you
to ex pose lire in inclement weather, it
they coniine yon to the desk, and are of
a nature to involve wear and tear ol
brain, and nervous strain, you may oc
casionally require some renovating tone.
Ilostetter’s Stomach Hitters is the article
tor you, it stimulates the failing energies

It enables the system to throw off the de
bilitating effects of undue fatigue, gives
renewed vigor to the organs of digestion,
arouses tile liver when inactive, which U
very often is with people whose pursuits
are sedentary, renews the jaded appetite
aud encourages healthful repose. Its in
gredients are safe and its credentials,
which consist In the hearty endorsement
of persons of every class of society, are
most convincing. Admirably is it ad

ATLANTA CIA. DOTS.
Something About the Ups
and Dows of Her
Inhabitants.
Alias Dunaway Alive.
Atlanta papeisare giving the public
some curious and wonderlul cases that
are quite interesting. It seems a young
lady ol Atlanta had been reported a
deud, hut it came to the ears of a Con
stitution reporter that she was still alive
sod being on the alert for news, called
at her residence to learn all the facts.
Miss Duuaway, wbo bad been pronounc
| ed dead, said:
| “For four years rlieratism and neu
ralgia have resisted physicians and all
i other treatment. My muscles seemed to
j dry uo. my flesh shrank away, my joints
i were swollen, painful and large, tost my
1 appetite, was reduced to- 6u pounds in
I weight, and for months wag expected to
die. I commenced the use of IS. IS. IS.,
and the action of one-balf bottle convinc
ed my friends that it would cure me. Its
effect was like magic. It gave me an ap
petite—gave me strength, relieved all nay
pains aches, added flesh to my bones,and
when five bottles had be'-n used, 1 had
gained 50 pounds of flesh, and am to-day
sound and well.
Mr. 3. P. Davis of West End.
What Hr. J. P. Davis, of West End,
said: “I have only a few words to say,
which are lo state that I have been eon
lined to iny bed for two months with
wnat was called Nervous Rheumatism,
or Sciatea. I was only enable to hobble
about occasionally bv the use of erutches
and in this condition I commenced the
use of B. It. ii., four bottles of which en
able me to discard the use of my crutches
and attend my business. I bad previous
ly used all well recommended medicines
without relief. It has been over one year
since using li, B. 8., aud I consider my
self a permanently cured man.”
Mr. R. P. Dodge Yardmaster Ba. R. R.
makes a statement:
“My wife has been a great sufferer of
catarrh. Several physicians and various
pateut medicines were resorted to, but
the disease continued uunbated, nothing
appearing to make any impression upon
it. Hr constitution Anally became im.
r floated, th# poison being in her blood
secured a bottle ofß. B. B. and phiood
her upon its use, and to our surprise the
improvement began at once, and her re
covery was ranid and complete. No oth
er preparation ever produced such a
wonderful chance, aud for all forms of
Blood Diseases I cheerfully recommend
B. B, B. ss a superior blood purifier.”
Mr. Jas. L. Bos worth Buttonholed.
“Y'es,” sal.l Mr. James L. Boswortli.an
old Atlanttan, “it was twelve years ago
w ben I contracted a terrible case of blood
poisoning. I had no appetite, did not
sleep well at night, my digestion was im
paired, my throat wae cauterized live
times and in fact I was a totui wreck. 1
had been under the treatment of several
of the leading physicians of Atlanta; 1
tried nearly enery blood remedy adver
tised; went to Hot Springs, where I re
mained several months, receiving no
benefit whatever.
A truly wonderful blood remedy was
recommended, known as B, B. B. J used
It, aud. sir, 6 bottles cured me, and 1
l eally believe it to be the grandest aud
