Tbc inauguration ball of Gov.
Smith, at the Kimball House, on last
Monday, is spoken of by the Atlanta
papers as one of the grandest affairs
of the kind; ever seen in Georgia.
- -
Upon the reassembling of the
Legislature upon the 10th inst. Major
J. B. Gumming of Augusta, was elec
ted Speaker of the House, in place of
Hon. J. M Smith, recently elected
Govenor. -

We see it stated m the Atlan
ta Sun that the company who bid
#86,500 for the lease of the State
Road have recently reorganized, and
that they are now stronger than ever.
They propose contesting the lease be
fore the courts.
t&T Prince Alexis, heir to the
crown of Russia, has been* or* a visit
to this country for several weeks. He
has recently killed a buffalo in the
far west, and it lias been made the
subject of a cable dispatch to- his fa
ther the Emperor Alexander.

Southern Cultivator. —This old
find reliable Southern agricultural mag
azine, published at Athens Georgiy
for January has been received. The
Cultivator is one of the best of our
agricultural magazines, and should be
taken by every farmer* who washes
to keep posted upon all modern im
provements in agriculture. Price two
dollars per annum:
We dont know whether airy
of our readers ever thought of it or
not, but it is a fact nevertheless, that
the publication of a paper in Carroll
County, will be the means of keeping
several thousand’ dollars in the county
which would otherwise go to the build
ing up of other towns and sections.
Besides this, it will be the means of
bringing into the county several hun
dred dollars, through foreign) adverti
sing, which the comity would not oth
erwise get. The way for a people to
become rich and prosperous, is to sup
port and sustain home lutitution and
thereby keep circulating among them
selves all the money they can:

An editoral published in our
first issue upon “The Future of Car
roll County,” we are pleased to ses re
published in several of our middle and
south west Georgia exchanges.. In
that article there was “nothing exten
ded," and to our friends in Middle
and Southern Georgia overrun by de
moralized freedmen, we would again
say, that now is the time, and Carroll
county is the place to which they can
flee from the wrath to come. The
want of Kailinoad facilities is what has
kept back our eounty in the past.
But this want will soon be supplied, as
in a few years we expect to see the
“Iron Horse” snorting in. six different
directions- from Carrollton, and mo less
than twenty or thirty trains arriving
and departing every twenty four hours.
When that time comes, and comae it
*iU, as certain as effect follows cause,
Carroll county will undoubtedly be
©ne of the most desirable in the State.
the Georgia Western R. K.
We publish, this week two articles
from the Atlanta Costitutivn , upon the
importance to Atlanta of building this
road. We in vite the attention of our
readers to them, as Carroll county is
deeply interested inrtiaifc great enter
prise,for according to the recent survey
the road goes directly through rt, via
Carrollton. The facts- presented by
the Constitution, are put in their
strongest light, and shows conclusive
ly that the Western road is a neces
sity to Atlanta, and an enterprise
which she ymtst build in order to main
tain her present prestige.
From private sources we also learn
that the citizens of Atlanta are a unit
in favor of it, and look upon its early
completion as a foregone conclusion.
The writer, has, since, thebuilding
of this roadwasfrrstagitatedy strongly
believed,it would eventually be built and
that the railroad situation in Georgia and
Alabama, was becoming such, from
completion of several new" roads, as to
force its building upon Atlanta, as a
matter of self defence. We hope that
our citizens who wiiQ be benefited by
this enterprise, wflT give it such aid as
lies within their means. This road will
put Carroll county in short and direct
communication with Atlanta and also
with the coal and iron fields of Ala
bama.
Savannah street workmen are dig
ging up gravestones in the way of
curiosities.
The funeral of Major James S.
Williams, who died last summer on
Staten Island,. New York, took place

placed on the Macon and Augusta

Editor Time* —We are panned to
announce the death of our friend Mh
Clark White, who’ died of Scurvy,
Saturday -evening last at hia residence
in-Cleburne county Alabama; about j
eleven miles from Bowdon. Mr.
White'was a member of one of the
most remarkable families now perhaps
living. His father Mr. William White
raised eleven gone, the deceased being'
the youngest* of the eleven, and' yet
fifty one year* of age. ten
and father are still living and apparent
ly in good health. A. B. C.

Carroll County Statistics.
CONTINUED:-
In my last I promised your readers
a statement of the number of persons
in our eounty who are not able to read,
and the number who are unable to
write. In performing my duties as
census marshal I> was required-to gath
er this information, which I did in a
careful manner, partly Because ft was
made my duty to do so, and partly be
cause I was anxious to find out for my
own information. Whenever a child
was ten years old or upwardJs I made
inquiry on this point, therefore the re
port here given includes all persons of
whatever age, so- they are ten years
old. I will also state that instead of
counting every page of the sehedak,
I counted every eighth page, (th-us
averaging the county, and gettingthe
average in every portion of the coun
ty,) and made ray calculations from
the average number thus found*
The result is that there are in the
county 3075 persons who are unable to
read 1 and 3900 who cannot write !
I have ptrt an exclamation point at the
end of the above sentence, and I think
it a good place for one, for the figures
are certainly large enough to elicit sur
prise, astonishment and wonder.—
This report may starfik some of your
readers, and- cause a feeling of humili
ation and perhaps of shame to steal
over them. Some will say that it is a
slander on our countv, and that It
should never have been snadie public.
There- may be a few wih»©> willlbe-iangen
erotss enough to impugn- nay motives,
and- say that it was done to east a slur
upon) out people, and to deride them in
their misfortunes. All sensible peo
ple, however, will know that this is
not my object, from the fact that my
interest is identified with the inter
est of the county ; all my hopes are
for her future elevation,, and all my
energies will be devoted to* her ad
vancement! and prosperity. I expect
to remain a citizen of the- e&mstj.
My suecess- will be dependant itpocr
her success in a great measure, and it
would certainly be fool hardiness on
my part to do, or write, or say any
thing derogatory to her character, or
her people, with any other object than
to bring about a reform, and fib* cor
rect existing evils.
The number as reported I know is
large, but I will venture the assertion
that if careful inquiry has been made
on this point in taking the census for
the adjoining counties, that the num
ber wST be proportionately large. But
that is not the thing that directly con
cerns us, let us see that ouar own boose
“is put in order.”
Now I ask hi all candor if it is not
time for the people of Carroll to
arouse from their lethargy, and de
vote themselves to planning and put
ting into operation a system which
will remedy this unfortunate condition
of things ? Is not the fact that there
are so many in the comity who have
no learning whatever, a sufficient ar
gument ot itself to convince our peo
ple that something more is demanded
and required of them, than to vote,
pay their taxes and earn a living by
the sweat of the brow. There is a
far weightier responsibility than any
of these, resting upon tthema! one
which cannot be like cards shuffled
from: one hand to another, lkrfc which
» resting directly upon us, and of
which we can relieve ourselves in no
other way than by meeting it squarely
and by performing, and discharging
the duty which it imposes.
But I hear the reply from some- of
you, that you* are not able to give
your children the advantages of an
education'! Now lam as well aware’
of that fact as you are. I know from
personal observation, (having visited
nearly every family in the county) that
there are a great many families who
have not the ability to do so* and who
according to the- statements voluntari-
ly made by them are barely able to.
make a support. For instance there
is a large number of widows in the
county whose husbands were either
killed or died in the army.. In a ma
jority of cases they were poor men,
owning but little property, and who
went into, the army not so j much for
the protection of their own property,
as they did to protect that of their
more wealthy neighbors. They had
but little to give in our then- common
cause, but that little was their all,
their lives l Now the question is sug
gested in this way. Ought not those
of us w’ho have escaped witferour lives,
and with some rrreans„to bewfllltigtb
contribute something to educate these
unfortunate orphans * It idle to
say that our people are unable to edu
cate the children in the county. It is
false, and the assertion should be met
with the scorn that it deserves. We
can better afford to educate them,
than we can to maintain criminals,
build prisons, and poor houses, and
pay thfe expenses of crimirdat c&usrts,
and criminal prosecutions. And in
proportion as intelligence is dissemi
nated; crime will be lessened. We
can better afford to give them an ed
ucation, wfneh wifi capacitate them
for spheres of usefulness, and for the
performanee-of their duties, as chil
dren, as members of society as citi
zens, and as Christians, than to neglect
their proper training and culture, and
sue them walking in the paths of vice,
and.standing in the way of the trans
gressor. We cannot afford longer to
turn a deaf ear to the dictates of com
mon sens© and common humanity.—
We cannot afford longer to smother
the emotions of the gratitude for our
fallen comrades, our sympathy for
their bereaved and destitute families,
and the promptings of duty as mam
fested by the whisperings of the still
small voice within A great work
lies before us. Ignorance that migh
ty foe ter progress—science and ad
vancement is to be supplanted! by in
telligence.
Prejudices of long standing and
firm foothold, are to be uprooted and
overturned in the same way, and vir
tue take the p*lace of vice. Then will
the people prosper, the whiskey shops
close, loafers will be laborers, hum
bugs wont make it pay, courts will
languish, and lawyers will starve.
Very Respectfully,
Geo. W. Merrell.
Carrollton, Jan. 17,1872.
From the Atlanta Constitution.
The Georgia Western Road.
In our last article, we showed how
Atlanta was losing trade, that she
must substitute in order to- keep up
her progress, and that the Georgia
Western Road opened up anew and
vast source* of boeiiness that should be
utilized ait once- and at any emt.
Tins rood not only gives* % new
and rich aretkwi of country m a trfou.
tanry to Atlanta, but places as in dtooer
©owuuetioni with many commercial
points of importance than we now are.
The figures we give are, of course,
pro®!mate, as the precise Ins** of the
road is not yet known.
Carrollton will be 63 miles nearer
to Atlanta by this road than by the
Cartersville and Van Wert Road;
Talladega 57 miles nearer than by
Rome); Ely ton 44 miles nearer ; Jas
per 44 males; Aberdeen 19ft miles
nearer than by the Mobile and Ohio
and Memphis and Charleston Roads ;
Grenada, 116 miles nearer.
The country through which the
Georgia Western passes Is a very
rich one, and its local business alone
would make it worth the cost of con
struction to Atlanta, apart from its im
mense value as a direct inlet for the
trade of the great West.
It passes through five counties of
Georgia—Campbell* Carroll, Paulding,
Harraison and Heard—that had in
1860 a population of 41,1 ft, improved
farm© of 2*15,475 acre*, worth s4,73fiy
-848, live stock worth $1,219*, 108, amd
raising 1,083,997 bushels of corn 136,-
787 bushel© of wheat, 17,871 bale© of
cotton, amd oats, peas* bonev, butter,
sweet potatoes, etc., in proportion.
It will draw tribute from thirty
three counties in Alabama haVing64o,-
140 people in 1860 ; improved farms
of four million acres, worth ninety
five millions of dollars, raising twenty
millions bushels of corn and other
products in proportion.
It will also draw firiforafce from twen
ty-two counties in Mississippi with
350,000 population, and farms, pro
ducts, and stock in proportion.
This will give a grand aggregate of
tributary country having in !8*6«0 a
population off one million, with seven
millions of acres of improved farms
worth two hundred millions of dollars,
live stock worth fifty millions, raising
forty millions bushels of corny two mil
lion bushels of wheat, a million and a
quarter bales of cotton, five millions
bushel of sweet potatoes, and other
products to match.
This road will control the largest pro
portion of this vast business, and help
; to* develop it to itill greater fnd more
remunerative proportion. And Atlan
ta will nwmopoSae this trade by a r©a«!
'managed in her own interest. Our
people are beginning to learn how
rail-road discriminations affect our
trade. A railroad in our own direction
cannot thus discriminate, ahd- can be
used to powerfully advance our local
interest. The experience of Philadel
phia with her Pennsylvania Centfral’y
and of Baltimore with her Balti
more and Ohio rail-wavs*, are cases
in point, and illustrated what great
things can be done for a city by a lead
ing railway in her own interest
Atlanta must have her Georgia
Western Railroad, and she must
put enough money into it to control
its management as well as secure its
early construction.
The Augusta Constitutionalist of
Saturday says :• John. Bt Thompson
was kilted at Dearing, cm the raigfut ©f
the lMh inst. at a prayer meeting at
Mrs. Bakers. He had been drink
ing, and was ordered to leave the
house % Mrs, Baker. He did so,.but
stopped the piazza, when she
again approached him ordering him
off. He disdained intention insulting
, any one, and offered to apologize if
he had been rude. Where upon, John
Baker, son of Mrs. IL, shot him - ov-eT

THE ATLANTA CONSTUXTION FOR
1872.
This yea* promises to be second’ tb
none in locaFand national importance.
The great Presidential ©owtest be
tween the Democratic andßepublican
parties, or between Constitutionalism
and the rights of the States upon the
one side, and Centralism and Impe
rialism upon the other, wall agitate
the country to it* remotest corners.
In State- affairs the times will be no
less eventful. Jfcist emerging from a
terrible crisis, the people of Georgia
will soon see the final dfevelbpments
of the Radical drama enacted ku the*
State since the dose of the war. Be
sides, there wiS be the regular election
for Governor.
The Constitution h as a corps of cor
respondents, domestic and foreign, un
surpassed by any journal in the South.
It is published at the capital, and fur
nishes full reports of Legislative Pro
ceedings and the Supreme Court, to
gether w ith Telegraphic and Commer
cial News from all parts of the world.
Being at the political centre of
Georgia, it has superior advantages to
obtain the latest political and general
intelligence.
The Constitution is now the Official
Organ of the State of Georgia and
the Democratic party. Having beem
unanimously elected at the last ses
sion of the General Assemby. It is
also the official paper of this city and
county.
To the people of Southwest Geor
gia we desire to cal® attention to the
fact, that the Atlantia- Constitution
now reaches them with the Maeon
papers of the same date
Every one who would keep up
with the times, and have an intelli
gewt, well-ißfo»nned boose-hold, should
by all means take- his local paper and
one from the capital.
The Constitution* now visits every
section and State, and as an advertis
ing medium is equal to the best.
