Xew Stove.;*—An excellent heating stove , just bought, and for which at present we have no use, for sale below cost, for cash, at this office. Sheriff’s Sale. —See Sheriffs sales for April, advertised in to-days paper. BaT Election for commissioners for this place will take place to-morrow.- Uncle Bobbie Moore reports plenty of Corn, but cow food scarce in Trickum District. Sale Day.— A good many people were in town on last Tuesday, sale day. We are pleased to note, how ever, that the best of order prevailed. Livery Stable. —Mr. Wat Wells is now receiving the lumber for his stable, and expects to have it up at an early day. #aT Prof. St. Maur, who was adver tised for this place oft last Monday night, failed to come to time. We are afraid that the Professor will net do to depend upon. fc#*Our thanks are due to our talented young friend Jessee Bla- I dr, Esq., for taking charge of the editorial department of the Times, du ring our absence last week. Gardening.— The past week has been a splendid week for gardening, and we notice a good many taking ad vantage of it Nothing pays so well, as a good garden, judiciously planted, and well cultivated. Still they Come.— We are pleased to announce that our subscription list is still rapidly increasing. We expect to have before the end of the year one of the largest subscription lists of any county paper in the State. ttS* The weather during the past week has been pleasant, and we notice that the farmers, who are generally behind in their farming operation, are taking advantage of it, in order to get every thing ready for the coming crops. Heavy Snow.—-The heaviest snow the season fell in this vicinity on last Friday night, but did not remain l° n g upon the ground, owing to the bard rain, by which it had been pre ceded. It fell fully to the depth of five or six inches. The Aldine. —This beautiful and interesting monthly piriodica 1 , which indeed is a credit to American Art, in its typographical and pictorial depart ments, has been received. The Al iine must be seen to be appreciated, an <l hence we will not attempt a des cription of its contents;, but refer the reader to the advertisement which a ppears elsewhere, for its objects and teope. Hr. Editor :-For W. J. D’s benefit 1 have concluded to send y6u a solu “°n ot his problem, given some weeks ago. A coach going from Carrollton to Charleston would meet two coaches eac h day, except, the last, when it only meet one; hence it would - n rtt thirteen coaches. T. J. J. Horseflesh — The editor of this Paper has a colt, not yet four years old he rode on last Saturday, as a day as it was, forty-four and a half miles, over some of the worst r°ads, it has ever been his fortune to Pee - On an ordinary road, in good father, sixty or seventy miles, he blinks would not have been so severe a travel, and yet the colt though accu stomed to traveling, seemed 0 e on the next dav about as fresh as usuab Rowenville Correspondence. Editor Times :—There is very little in the way of local news at this point- Work on the S. G. & N. A. Rail Road if* progressing moderately well. The Messrs Boynton and Massey are gra ding the sections nearest this place, and are moving forward finely, consid ering the continued severe weather.— We hope by October at furthest to see the “ Iron horse ” ride up to the “Hitching post" at Boweiiville.- Then we expect a considerable little town—the rival of Carrollton, to spring up here. That most terrible of all local mala dies—Meningitis—is prevailing witVi fearful and fatal effect among Rail Road hands and citizens of this vicini ty. Many of the hands of the Messrs. Boynton have died, while among the citizens not more than ten per cent are likely to recover. Two families near by, have lost three children each. Many others, have died also. Now however, we have a faint hope that the disease is slowly abating, and with fair, pleasant weather will soon disap pear. More anon, Citizen. Bowrnviille, Ga., March sth, ’72 Ed. T imes. —The “hope,” expressed in an article for the Times from this point on yesterday relative to the decline of “ Meningitis” was blasted before nightfall One death yesterday—a colored girl—and three other malig ant cases of the el dest e The reports from them this morning, how ever are cheering, No new eases re ported to day. Citizen. Boweiiville, March 6. 1872 Law Club— The Law Club met on Tuesday night, and wa3 honored by the presence of M. H. Fletcher Esq of Rock Mart. J. L. Cobb Esq. was called to the chair. On motion lion. Robert Toombs Judge W. F. Wright, Hugh Buc hannan and Oincinnatus Peeples were elected honorary members of the society. J. J. Julian Esq delivered a lecture on the subject of attachinents, in which he occupied thirty minutes. His lecture showed a thorough exam ination of the law, as well as a thor ough understanding of the subject. He gave the origin, the nature and the reason of the law, after which de bate was opened on the question. Jessee Blalock leading counsel lor the plaintiff argued that it plaintiff had no remedy at common law, that he would be entitled to relief in equity according to section 3062 of the Code. J. J. Julian leading counsel for defendant argued from common law principles that the verbal was merged in the written contracts citing the ca-ieof Lo gan vs. Bond from the 13th Georgia. A spirited debate ensued in which we will say the speakers all did themselves the honor of using sound anil substantial arguments. Judge Cobb held in the negative. The next question will be: “Is a man justifiable in killing another for debauching his wife.” G. W. Merrell will deliver a lecture next Tuesday night before the Club. Doors open to all who may wish to attend. fi&T Our friends, Dr. J. 11. Russell, Capt. Jack Smith and Tolbert Mead ors Esq., left for Texas on last Wed nesday. They go merely on a visit, as they have no idea of leaving “old Carroll” whose future at this time is so promising. Capt, Smith carried his gun along, as he expects to kill a few deer, provided he can’t find'* bars” of which both wild and domestic, he is particulary fond. They expect to remain a month or tw< in the “Lone Star State,” and we hope they will have a pleasant visit, and a safe return to their native heaths. The Efvkct of not Taking a Pa per.—Some time ago, a lady noticing that a neighbor of hers was not in her , seat at church, one Sabbath, called on her return home, and was surprised to find the family at work. As she en-1 tered her friend addressed her: “ Why, la! where haveyou been to day; dressed up in your Sunday clothes ? ” “ To meeting.” “Why, what day is it? ” “Sabbath-day ” “Sal, stoj) washing in a minute, it’s Sunday! Well, I did not know, for j my husband has got so plaguey stingy he Won't take the papers now and we know nothing. Well, who preached?” “Mr W.” “What did he preach about? ” “ It was on the death of our Savior.” “Why, is he dead? Well, all Carroll ton might be dead, and we know noth in" about it. It won’t do we must have the Times again ; for everything goes wrong without that paper. Bill has almost lost his reading and Polly has got mopish again, because she has got no poetry or stories to read. Well, if we have to take a cart-load of po tatoes and onions to market, I’m re solved to have the Times.” Personal. —Mr. E. R. Sharpe, of the Carrollton Times, paid us a hasty visit on Monday last. Ed. looks as fresh and rosy as a green mountain boy. He is the propeller of a mighty nice paper, which he represents as being in a flourishing condition.— Heard County Heirs. Scribner’s Monthly. —The January, February and March numbers of this excellent magazine, the advertisement of which will be found in another col umn, have been received. We believe that we have seen the most of the magaziues published in this country', (and the magazines of the United States are considered the best in the world,) and we unhesitatingly say that we think Scribner’s one ot the best, if not the best , published in the United States.

The Georgia Western to be Built. —Major Cam]-bell Wallace, President of the Georgia Western Rail road, has opened an office in the James Bank Block, in this city, and is getting ready to push this enterprise to com pletion. He says he is going to build the Hoad. Those who know Major Wallace as a railroad man, know just what this mea is. It means that he secs his way clearly, and that the suc cess of the enterprise is no longer prob lematical. This will be graitifying intelligence to the people of Atlanta. The city has much to expect from this Road.— It will penetrate one of the richest mineral regions in Alabama. It will open one ot the best coal regions in the Southern States, and will enable man ufacturers in Atlanta to purchase coal and iron ore at low prices. This is a necessary condition to real prosperity and is what Atlanta needs above all tilings else. —Atlanta Era. •From the Atlanta Constitution. Broad and Narrow Gauge R. R ad- The several railways having termi ni at Atlanta, although worked under separate charters and organizations, are practically consolidated. This practic il consolidation is ef fected through their common interest by which through rates of freight to points beyond Atlanta are fixed at figures below those to this place.— Whether this be good policy on their part we will not stop to discuss. We propose to speak only of the effects produced upon Atlanta’s inter ests, and the remedy. The discriminations against Atlanta by these “trunk lines,” is retarding her inarch of prosperity. We canno t own these lines for the want of means. If able to contiol even one of them, we might then demand and secure concessions. B&t, being unable to do this, what istlie next best remedy ? Unquestion ably the construction ol aline through the unoccupied territory west of us. But is Atlanta able to build it, and control it when done.? Estimating the distance from Atlanta to Elvton or Birmingham at 155 miles, and the cost of broad gauge, at $25,000 per mile, the total cost will be $3,875,000 or at $20,000 per mile, $3,100,000. The narrow gauge at SIO,OOO per mile would cost $1,550,000, or at $12,- 000 per mile $1,860,000, a saving in the one case of $2,015,000, and in the other of $1,945,0)0, in favor of the narrow gauge. We will not discuss the ability of the narrow gauge to do all the business that will offer. Os this there can be no doubt. Now let us see what other advan tages it will offer over that of the broad gauge. 1. It will give lower rates, because costing only about half as much as the broad gauge, and being operated at less cost, it can do so and still leave a larger margin for profits than the broad gauge. 2. Offering lower rates, it will at tract or draw business a greater dis tance than the broad gauge, her.ce will command a larger business. 3. Offering lower rates, it will de velop interests that the broad gauge | with its high rates cannot do. 4. Offering lower rates than com peting broad gauge lines can do, it will command a monopoly ot the busi ness. ♦ 5 Costing one and half cents per ton per mile to move fi eight on the broad gauge, and only one cent on the | narrow gauge, it will give us cheap coal. 6. Cheap coal wilt build up manu factures, and they, in their turn, will increase our population, and thereby largely enhance the value of oui real estate. Now let us see what difficulties the broad gauge will have to contend with, what competition it will have to over come, and then see whether the nai row gauge will not accomplish what | the broad gauge with its higher rates must necessarily fail to do. The road from Atlanta to the Ala bama line, about seventy-five miles, will run nearly parallel with the Wes tern and Atlantic on one side, and the 1 Atlanta and West Point on the other. Neither of these lines command a heavy business from the section lefei ed to. It is now divided by the fig- ure 2. Divide it by 3, and the result would be a very small busiues tor the new line. On reaching Carrollton, j about forty-five miles, there will be a nharp competition for the business of that section, the Savannah, Griffin and and North Alabama drawing business irom Atlanta to Griffin, Macon and Sa vanriah. Passing west from Carrollton about thirty miles, the line will cross the East Alabama and Cincinnati Road. Here, then we will have another competitor j for Atlanta trade, the East Alabama and Cincinnati drawing business away from us to Opelika, Columbus and Montgomery. Continuing west about thirty nve miles, the line will cross the Selma. Rome and Dalton. Competi tion meets us at this point, the Selma, Rome and Dalton fighting for Selma, Montgomery and Dalton. Moving west about forty-five miles the line will run for a long distance nearly par allel with the Savannah and Memphis Road, which will compete with us for business of that section. This carries us to Birmingham. We find then, that we will meet with sharp competi tion at four different points in the 155 miles, and from lines that can work as cheap as we can. Now let us see how the narrow guage will work out. Costing only about one half that of the broad gauge, it can work for less rates than the Western and Atlantic on one side, and the Atlanta and West Point on the other, hence will command the largest share of the business. They cannot compete with it. At Carroll ton, crossing the Savannah, Griffin and North Alabama, broad gauge, it can offer lower rates than its competitor, hence will command a large business for Atlanta that would otherwise be drawn to other points. At the cross ing of the East Alabama and Cincin nati broad guage, the same advantages would hold good in favor of the nar row gauge. At the crossing of the Selma, Rome and Dalton the result would be the same. At the point where the line would become a parallel one to tire S. and M. the narrow guage, from its low rates, would command a monopoly of the business of that section. At Bir mingham it would command all east ward bound business by its low rates. It will offer to all interests in the sec tion in which it is located lower rates to Atlanta than competing broad gauge lines could offer to Atlanta’s competitors, equi distant from the same shipping point* This will make Atlanta the favorite market for that entire section. It will offer Atlanta merchants and manufacturers, lower rates to that sec tion than the merchants and rnannfac turers of Chattanooga, Montgomery, Opelika, Nashville and Knoxville can possible command with their broad gauge roads, hence will make Atlanta the favorite market for supplying that section with dry goods, groceries, hardware, etc. Working for less rates at the cross ings of the brcad gauges, it will be come the “trunk line,” and the broad gauges, the side lines or feeders. In fact the narrow gauge will com mand absolutely the trade of that sec tion for Atlanta, while the broad gauge will only divide with competing lines. Narrow gauge will make it local in its character belonging to Atlanta. Broad gauge will make it general in its character, a “trunk line,” event ually owned and controlled by other interests antagonistic to Atlanta, with discriminations against Atlanta. We have thus presented the advan ta es claimed by the friends of the narrow gauge. In future number we will give the arguments in favor of the broad guage. Mark Twain on Woman SuF frage.— Mark Twain says that when women frame laws, the first thing they will do will be to enact: 1. That all men should be at home at 10 p. m. without fail. 2. that married men should bestow considerable attention upon their own wives. 3. That it should be a hanging of fense to sell whisky in saloons, and that fines and disfranchisement should follow in such places. 4. That the smoking of cigars to ex cess should be forbidden, and smoking of pipes utterly aboislied. 5. That the wife should have the title of her own property when she marries a man that hasn’t any. “Such tyranny as this,” says Mark “we could never stand. Our free souls could never endure such degra ding thraldom. Woman, go away! Seek not to beguile us of our imperial privileges. Content yourselves with your little feminine trifles—your ba bies, your benevolent societies, and your knitting—and let your natural bosses do the voting. Stand back— you will be wanting to go to war next. We will let you teach school as much as you want to, and pay you half price too, but beware, we don’t want you to crowd us too much,” Look lo Your Imprest. All pei sons indebted to the under signed are requested to come and set tle at once, and save us the unpleasant task of putting our accounts in the hands of a collecting officer. We mean business. CAMP & GARRISON. Feb. 16. 1872 The Jewish Messenger has an article upon “ Distinctive Judaism," in which we find this genial paragraph: God has formed us to be a peeular people, distinct from all others in re ligious duties. But here this distinc tion ends. Iu every good act which tends to elevate humanity we are co partners with the world: we rejoice in their happiness, sympathize with their sorrows, elevate the lowly and educate the ignorant. To be plainly and prop erly understood, we are Jews in the synagogues; in the walks of life we are citizens of the world, cosmopolitan in feeling and sympathy and action.
