Our Trip to West Point.
Having business at the abbve place,
we paid it a hasty visit lsst week,
making the trip through the country
on horseback, in two days. As we
left Carrollton, the first of the week,
our trip going was a very very' pleas
ant one indeed. The return, however,
on Friday and Saturday was very dis
agreeable, owing to the rain, cold
weather and bad condition of the
roads.
In going down, we stopped over at
Franklin Monday night, and enjoy’ed
the hospitality of Brother Barroft of
the News. Barron is undoubtedly
one of the best “ country’ editors” in
the State, and though he don’t look
like it, is full of humour. He is mak
ing the News a lively and spicy sheet,
and we are glad to know that it is ap
preciated by the Heard county peo
ple. The immitable J. Day Barron,
brother to the editor, better known by'
his nom de plume “ Sandy Higgins,”
contributes regularly to the News, and
his humorous sketches so full of gen
uine Country human nature, are al
ways read with avidity by the fun-lov
ing public. We consider some of
“Sandy's sketches as not second to
those of Jonce Hoopers, the great
humourest of his native State, Ala
bama, and can not but regret that he
has not devoted his life to the profes
sion of humorous literature, for which
undoubtedly he has shown great ge
nius. We learn that Mr. Barron is
now living in the “ back woods” of
Cleburn county' Alabama, where he
owns some fine mills, but i3 anxious
again to return to the profession of
journalism, having been connected be
fore the war with the press of Ala
bama
M est Point we found as lively as
ever. In fact her merchants claim
that they have done a larger trade
this winter, than any season since the
war. There is no getting round it,
that this place is one of the most
thriving, and prosperous little com
mercial cities in the South. It re
ceives annually a large quantity of
cotton, for which, always the highest
prices are paid. Being backed by a
line country, and a thorough go-ahead*
and enterprising set'of merchants, not
withstanding the desperate efforts that
are being made, by rival towns and
enterprises to break down her com
mercial prestige, we predict that she
will always hold her own, and by her
Superiority as a market and shipping
point, being at the termini of two im
portant lines of railway, be able to bid
defiance to the efforts that are being
made to break down her trade.
W e met many friendsand acquain
tances in YY est Point, whose familiar
faces reminded us forcibly of “Aidd
Lang Syne,” for here it was our ear
liest days were spent, and “as far back
as memory runneth” many pleasant
scenes and incidents are intimately as
sociated with the past history of this
stirring little city.
West Point News,
As stated in our weekly Press cob
umn, Mr. R. D. Harrell has become
connected editorially with the YY r est
Point News. We know Mr. Harrell
well, and look upon him as a young
man of more than ordinary ability
and promise. If He will but devote
his talents sedulously to the editorial
management ot the News, with
Boully who is a number one printer
to take charge of the mechanical de
partment, we do not see why the
News should not take rank among
the first "weeklies of the State.
Adkins has been appointed
by President Grant. Collector atSavan

The State Teacher’s Associa

£&* The Industrial Association of
Savannah, after repeated efforts to

Col. Avery, Editor of the At

written from the St. Johns river.
tS&T A freight train on the Georgia
Railroad, ran oft’ the track two miles

to confer with him, and if possible in

These “ country editors,” are
never satisfied, except when they are
trying to “ chaw ” each other, as wit
ness the weekly effusions of the La
Grange Reporter, Heard County News?

Georgia Press Association.
We do not believe that tire objects
for which the Georgia Press Assoc-ia
tion was formed, have been attained,
nor evc-r will be, until the Association
gets the co-opperation of the entire
press of the State. Those, therefore,
who have heretofore, failed to attend
the meetings of the Association, have
no right to complain of its failing to
accomplish anything, sine'e they them
selves, have been by their non-atten
dance, the principal cause of this fail
ure. The object of the Association is
not only laudable, but beneficialtothe
profession, and it seems would receive
the hearty co-operation as a matter of
self-interest, of the entire press of the
State. We hope therefore that the
proposed meeting in May will be
more largely attended than any herto
fore, and that such prestige will be
given to the Association by a lull at
tendance, as will make it a pov er.
vhi h no member of the
l ress can afford to be indifferent to.
Mailing Newspapers. —An order
has gone out for a strict enforcement
of the new regulations on newspapers
sent by mail ; and as our readers may
not all be posted with reference to
what they are, we condense them as
follows: Name of sender cannot be
written on paper as was the old cus
tom. No memorandum or intelligible
inscription must be made inside the
wrapper. No printed card, handbill
or advertisement must be enclosed. No
written notice, letter or written Blip
of any kind can be folded in ; printed
slips soliciting notices of the press
pasted inside newspapers or periodi
cals, or on the outside of the wrapers,
are in violation ; also cross marks to
indicate that subscriptions have expir
ed. All other regulations areas form
erly. A violation of any of these
points subjects the matter to letter
postage, and the perpetrator to fine.
Inport ant to Justices of the
Peace. —The following act of the
General Assembly, approved Dec.,
12th, 1871, will be found of impor
tance to the various justices of the
Peace throughout the country.
See. 1. Provides that Justices of the
Peace and Notaries Public, who are
ex-officio Justices of the Peace, shall
keep separate dockets of all causes
civil and criminal disposed of by them,
thte actual disposition of each and the
amounts of costs collected and from
whom.
Sec. 2, Provides, that these officers
shall lay their doektts before the
Grand Juries of their respective conn
ties, the first day of each session for
their inspection.
Sec. 3. Provides, that a failure to
do so, shall be deemed a crime, for
which these officers shall be indicted,
and the trial of their cases shall have
precedence over all other cases civil
or criminal, and if convicted shall be
punished by a fine not to exceed one
thousand dollars, six months in jail or
both in the discretion of the Court,
or to work in the chain gang twelve
months as the Court may determine.
These officers might do well to bear
this law in mind, as it is but little
trouble to keep these dockets, and a
failure to comply with its provisions
might put them to considerable annoy
ance and cost
Robbery with the Aid of Chloro
form.
Dr. Stephen R >gers, of New York,
in a report on “Can Chloroform be.
used to Facilitate Robbery f”
records some facts which prove it to
be of no use to robbers. Ist. As to its
use to promote the greater security
from the disturbance of the sleeper,
even were that practicable, the very
time that would be consumed in the
gradual and cautious administration of
the vapor —the only possible theoret
ical manner accomplishing it—would
so increase the danger ot detection
that few thieves would think of em
ploying it. 2d. During the course of
the administration of the chloroform,
whatever manner may be adopted,
the patient or subject, as a rule, be
comes excited, often very violent and
turbulent, with an inepressible pro
pensity to sing or shout, which is ot
ten so loud as to alarm the inmates of
the whole house. He is in a state of
wild chloroformic intoxication. The
exceptions to this rule are so few that
no prudent thief would think ot run
ning the *risk of meeting one ot
those exceptions. 3d. Supposing the
two proceeding obstacles overcome,
and the victim thoroughly quieted in
to a narcotic sleep, a third and very
frequent complication arises; he begins
to vomit, and, while he does not gen
erally make much noise about it, still,
he may; and he always requires
attention lest fatal strangulation oc
cur. The knowledge, among the
criminal classes, that the abandonment
of their victem, with a towel still over
bio face, to the liabilities of vomiting
and strangulation, would often add
the ci ime of murder to that of robbery,
would have great effect in detering
them from the futber employment ot
it.

Previous to the war they had a good
property, largely composed of negroes-
They still nave their land, and for thir
ty years have rarely left their house
for any purpose. They have ever been
scrupulously holiest and exact in all
their dealings. Mrs. Kilgore has al
was done her own house-work, sucli as
cooking, milking, churning, Ac. She
has, with her own hands, spun and
wove all of their clothing during their
long married life Mr. K. never be
longed to any church, never buys on a
credit, and deals in no currency that
does not have the “ring of the true

The McDuffie Journal published at

article with the following sensible sug
gestions, which we commend to the
citizens of Carrollton: Now, let us
be wise, and foster the growing in
terests of our town by building hous
es—of which there is great lack—to
accommodate those who wish to come
among us and bring with them their
capital, their talents, or their skill.
By so doing we serve our own inter
ests, and enhance the value of our prop
erty; by adopting an exclusive or su
percilious manner, we commit a suici
dal act, and will suffer all the bad
consequences of so foolish a policy.
How Grant was Nominated.
Colonel Forney published in the
Sunday Chronicle a remarkable account
of the manner in which Grant was
first, nominated for President. He
says Judge Carter and Senator Thayer
suggested to him, in November, 1867,
to write an exhaustive article favoring
such a nomination. Forney replies:
I answered that General Grant was
not a candidate for President, and did
not desire to be, and if I printed it
without authority there was little doubt
that some gupeiserviceable politician
would call upon him, and ask him if he
had been made a candidate with his
sanction. He will, of course, reply
that l>e never saw the article till it
was in print, and so all your scherns
to make him President will “gang e
glee.” Then Rawlins took it to Gen
eral Grant, and stayed quite a long
time. When he returned he said :
“General Grant is quite pleased with
your statement ot his political record,
and surprised that ne proves to be so
good a Republican.” Upon this hint I
printed. YY hen Kawlins came back
from General Grant with the editorial
he told us with great emphasis, “Gen
eral Grant does not want to be Presi
dent. He thinks the Republican par
ty may need him, and he believes, as
their Candidate, he can be elected and
re-elected.”
“But,” said Rawlins, “what is to be
come of him after his second Presiden
tial term? What, indeed, during his
administration ? lie is receiving from
seventeen to twenty thousand dollars
a year a& General of the armies of the
republic, a fife salary. To go into the
Presidency at twenty-five thousand
dollars a year for eight years is per
haps to gain mote fame, but what is
to become of him at the end of his
Pre- ideney? He is not a politic-aim—
He does not aspire to the place.—
Eight years from the 4th of March,
1869, he will be about fifty-six years
old. Os course, he must spend his
salary as President. England, with
her Wellington, her Nelson, and her
other heroes on land and sea, has nev
er hesitated to enrich and ennable them
through all their posterity. Such a
policy is in accordance with the char
acter of the English government, but
in our country the man who fights for
and saves the republic would be a beg
gar if lie depended upon political office:
and mark it, if Grant takes any thing
from the rich, whose vast fortunes he
has savt and, after he is President, he
will be accused as the willing recipient
of gifts.”
It will thus be seen that Grant in
tended to run for the Presidency for
a second term when lie was working
for the first.
Wiiat Good Roads Do. —An ex

Good roads benefit every one resi

Good roads save horse flesh. They

Good roads increase the traffic and

Pennsylvania Central Railroad.
—The above road is said to be the
most powerful organization in the
worM. The road proper embraces
358 milfcr of main track, and 258 of
branches; but these constitute a very
small part of the lines controlled by
the company. The statement is, that
in addition, the Central manages 3,2t)0
miles of leased lines, making a gaud
aggregate of 3,816 miles road practi'
cally under one control. The gross
receipts of this vast property for the
fiscal year just closed, were $22,2< 2,
