The Law Club.— -This body met, on last Monday night at the usual hour, W. W. Morrell Esq., presi ding. The club was not as fully rep resented as usual, owing to sickness and necessary absence of some of its members. The question for debate, viz : “Can a wife procure a divorce a vinculo matrimoni, on account of abusive words used habitually by the husband, was discussed in the affirm ative by G. W. Austin and Judge N. Blielnutt of Bowdon, and in the nega tive by G. W. Merrell and J. J. Ju lian. The arguments both pro and con were clever «nd ingenious, and did credit to the disputants. The Judge presiding gave his decision in favor of the negative, the same being based upon the law involved in the case, and not according to the merit of the discussion.* We were very much gratified to note the high tuned, professional courtesy of the disputants towards each other, and the fraternal feeling with which they all seemed to be actuated. The olnb is eminently a success, aitd if it is continued in that spirit with which it is now conducted will he productive of interest to all its members, as well -as great benefit to the vemng lawyers. The question for discussion at its next meeting: is “Can a man be convicted of an attempt to steal for (bursting his hand into the pocket of another in which 'there is nothing ” That Craziy Man in Elbert. Editors Atlanta /Sun: In the issue oft he Sun of the 11th appeared a notice about “a crazy man at forge" giv ing his name as being “John Martin,” of Coweta county. The unfortunate Wan having partly lost his reason, however, retains sense enough to know his real name, for he is no other than Mr. John Martin, only son of Mr. Elijah Martin, who lives nine miles east of Newnan, as his'Post Office. Mr. John Martin, himself owns the plantation next to his father’s estate. Ho is a man of education, but eccentric w-ays, and fixed ideas have reduced him to his present state. Mr. Elijah Martin is at present on a visit to his daughter in Texas, and will be grieved to learn of the unfortu nate situation of his son. Perhaps the father’s absence accounts for the wandering off of Mr. John Martin. He is a nephew of Mr. William Amies, vswner of the Paper Mills in Carroll county, Ga., and a brother-in law of Mr. W. Whitaker, Fayettville Post Office, Fayette county, Ga. May humanity prompt someone to notify the relatives of the whereabouts of this unfortunate man.

For the Tmet.l Mr; Editor:— l am informed by Mr. Jas. M. Hamrick, P. M., at Sand Hill, also by Mr. W. T. Richards, P. M.,at Allen’s Mill, that your paper is being extensively known, and will be heart 2y received by all those having the in terest and welfare of their county at heart. Those gentlrnen seem to be assured that the Times need only to be known, to meet the "approval of all well wishers. We, as a free, independent, well to do class of jieople who anticipate at an early period, to stand close about head with some of our sister counties, in al most any enterprise that Way tend to the promotion of any, and all under takings that may present themselves, should be up, and doing while it is tilled to’day. And one very im portant item for the promotion of our county, is, to liberally support, our county paper, which will prove in my judgement, one of the enterprises we can boast of, if every citizen in the county that can read, and can. raise two dollars, will do his duty. Also, Mr. Editor, in connection with the above I notice in your issue of the 9th inst., an answer, or rather a re ply to the coach problem by 9Kitto." As my friend “Kifto” seems to be very confident in bis opinion, I shall have to ackowledge him quite right, so tar as tie goes, with the exception of the last coach spoken of by him, which, from what I can gather or uii derstand from his statements, must have started out on a flanking expedi tion It is presumable the coaches all travel the same route, but in different directions, as some are coming from, while others are going to Charleston. Therefore a person would meet those coaches spoken of by “Kitto,” tlhe last one spoken ofj and more besides. Hence, “Kitto” being wrong, in his cofident opinion, we might solicit an answer, or answers from the more con siderate public. Respectfully, W. J. D. Sand Hill, Ga., Feb., 17th 1872. Communicated. Bowdo.i News. Bowdon has been one of the most quiet towns in all the land, for the last few months, seldom a drunkard seen about tjee place, or a profane oath beard on the streets, but last night this quiet stillness was some what disturbed, by loud cursing, and some halloeiug along the different parts of the town. This morning a yellow boy calling his name John Grant came up and asked lor a war rant, lev -tire arrest of two other ne groes for striking him last night. He was questioned on the matter and in his statement implicated himself and several others, as being together in ft general spree. That they had got some whiskey and in their tramps around, fell out and had a fight. The Marshal took their names and soon had six of them up before his Honor the Mayor. They all confessed, or rather proved each other guilty of be ing in the spree, and three of them in the fight. His honor found them guil ty and assessed appropriate fines. One of them, however, has appealed from the judgement of the Mayor, to the full Board of the Council. His case will be tried before the Council to-morrow at o’clock. Respectfully, A. B. C. Bowdon February 21st. 1872. How to Build Up a Town. Encourage men to come and locate with us, especially the worthy and av tive, whether they have capital or no-t. 'Those who have means will purchase lots, build manufactories and houses, and give ■employment to labor. Stim ulate every legitimate enterprise by giving it proper encouragement or by uniting our industry and capital in the cause. The importance of our people spending their money at home is great. There is not a quicker or surer way to build up a town than to encourage home business. Homo architects should plan our buildings, and home mechanics should work for us. Encourage our own manufac tures bv purchasing what they make that we may need. By this means all will be benefited, and our town will grow Such a course will en hance the value and demand for houses and land Let every man cul tivate a public spirit, and talk less than he works. Help your neighbor. If he is in danger of breaking down, prop him up in some way, instead of kicking nim under —his talents and labor are worth money to the commu nity. Encourage our citizens and lo cal authorities in making public im provement, and stimulate every indi vidual enterprise. —McDuffie Journal. Communicated’ Mr. Editor:— Why is it that so many people about town are so care less about keeping up their horses, cows and hogs? Do they think that every town lot, as well as the streets and Public Square are only pastures for their stock? Do they think that it is right for their cows to steal all the fodder from the wagons that please to come to town, unless its owner stands guard all the while he is in town? Now we think that any one who has more stock about town than they can keep on their own lot and feed, had better get rid of them as soon as pos sible, for it is wrong, in the first place, to keep any kind of stock you can not treat well, and in the next place, it is very wrong to suffer your stock of any kind, to prove a pest to your neigbors.

Liberty must be preserved or lost. The corruptionists of the day—the Bond Rings—the ambitious enemies of tree government-are artfully, persis tently paving the way to tire overthrow of the Federal Republic, founded by Washington-, Jefferson and Madison, and the establishment of a Centralized Empire and a Dynasty in its stead. THE PEOPLE can prevent this if they will. Thoy can retain thejr free dom, or they can become slaves, The destiny of this country is to be deci ded by the peoples' votes! If the Democratic party will but stand firmly upoii its time-honored platform, and erect the standard ot Liberty, and honesty in the adminis tration of the government, a glorious triumph will Jbe achieved. Victory is within our grasp. The enemy is giv ing way—is receding from his disre gard law and constitutional guar anties. Xow is the time for a vigo rous charge upon his wavering lines.

A Hfpres.maiUe end C'hempier. q>‘ Atnetlcdn Art tone Aldinei An Illustrateii Monthly Journal claimed to kg tht fmnsoiHttt Paper rn the World. „G ive my love tot be artist workmen of I niK ai.dink who are striving to make their j profesiou worthy of admiration for beauty.at* ‘ it hus always been for usefulness.'’ —Henry Ward Bnxhcr - * The A: dine while i*>ued ftilit uli the re?- ularity, has none of the temporary or timely interest characteristic ol ordinary periodic als* It is an elegant miscellany of pure. • light, and graceful literature, and a collection of pictures, the re rest specimens of artistic skill, Tn black and white. Although each succeeding number aflords a fresh pleasure to | its friends, the real value and beauty of The Aldine will he most appreciated after it has been bound up at tlie close of the year.— YVhile other public publications may claim superior cheapness as compared with rivalso f a similar class, The Aldine is a unique and original conception—ulonc nnd unapprotre'b ed—absolutely without competition in price or character. The possessor of the volume ; just completed cannot dnplicate the quantity j of fine puper and engravings in any other | shape or number of volumes for ten times its j cost. The labor of getting The Aldine ready on ! the press is so great that repri ting is out of | the question' YY r it h th»* exception of a small number specially reserved lor binding, the e dition of 1871, is already exhausted, and it is now a scarce as well as valuable book. NEW FEATURES FOR 1872 AFT DEPARTMENT The enthusiastic support so readily accord ed to their enterprise, wherever it has been j introduced, has convinced the publi.-hers of I’he Aldine of the soundness of their theory j that the American public would recognize and heartily support any sincere effort to ele vate the tone and standard of illustrated pub lications. That so many weakly wicked sheets exist and thrive is not evidence that there is no market for anything better-todeed theaue cess of The Aldine from the start is direct proof of the contrary. \Y T itli a population to vast, and of such varied taste, a publiaaer can choose his patrons, and his paper is rath er indicative of his own than of the taste of the country. Asa guarantee of the excel lence of this department, the publishers would beg to announce during the coming year j specimens from the following artists: W T Rietarde, Granville rc-rkins, James Smile* Hm liar. F O C Darley. R k pigaet, 'l \\m Beard Victor Nuhlig, Frank Beart/, George hmiley.Wm II Wilcox, Paal Dixon Aog.
