For the Carroll County Times.
Letters from Texas,
Four years have passed since I said
good bye to many friends and left
Carrollton my native village. Four
years ! It does not seem long, as we
look back, and memory pictures so
plainly each familiar face, but we real
ize most painfully that it has been
time enough for death to mark his
victims by tlie thousands, and leave
many a once happy home desolate.—
Carrollton particularly has suffered, for
during this time many, of her oldest
and most honored citizens have died.
Judge Kingsbery, lie who hadso long
stood by Carrollton, alike in prosperi
ty, and adversity, was one of the first
called away. His straight-forward
unobtrusive life, bespoke his worth.
Maj. Martin, Judge Long, Dr. NV. S.
Tanner, and H. F. Merrell, men of
worth and influence, who had for
years been identified with.the interest
of Carrollton, have alike passed away
With them lifes warfare is over, but
we feel that it must he long before
the loss sustained by their death, is
recovered. Henry Merrell was my
friend and counselor, and I can vouch
for his integrity m both relations.
When the news of his death reach
ed me I felt that another worthy man
was gone, ono that Carrollton could
not well spare, and that I too had lost
a true triend. Sad thoughts indeed, but
the insatiate destroyer did not stop
there. Soon came the intelligence of
another death, that of X. J. Meador.
I received it xvith profound sorrow,
for he was my more than friend. We
were most intimately associated for
three years as we grew into manhood,
being daily together, sharing, each
others confidence most implicitly, and
never did one unkind word, or even a
shadow of suspicion to mv knowledge,
pass between us. Kind and gentle
manly in his deportment, he was an
agreeable companion. The time with
us passed most pleasantly, and when
business interests called us apart, it
was with the strongest assurance that
the friendship so true and strong <
should last for life. Ah ! little did I
think, that life would end so soon
When I heard his last good bye, with
the many warm wishes for my success
in this far off land, I could not realize
the possibility that I should see his
face no more But such are the mys
terious ways of Providence, that death
often claims His victim in the prime of
life, and no friendship, no love, so
strong and deep, as to hold them
back from his cruel grasp. Most
gladly would we pay some fitting
tribute, to the memory of one so be
loved in life; but suffice to say, avc
weep with those who weep, and ten
ffer our heartfelt sympathy. Long
will his memory .be cherished,
Henry Asbery too is dead, one xvho
endeared himself to me by many noble
qualities, as well as, the warm hearted
interest lie manifested in my welfare.
We served as Post Masters at the same
time, and he was always obliging,
rendering most kindly any assistance
needed. Indeed in both our business
and social relations, he proved himself
worthy the name of friend, and I feel
thgt I owe something to his friendly
smile of encouragement, and while we
would have prayed a long life for him,
Ave bow in submission to that Provi
dence which is above human scrutiny.
There is another of whom we would
speak. Em era Kingsberry, who died
at La Grange, Ga., Jan. 1872, though
not a citizen of Carrollton, yet it was
his childhood’s home, He was snatched
away, when life opened out before him
so, fair and promising. AVe knew
Kmers to be one of the best of boys,
kindest of brothers, and a most de
voted son. For the last few years, he
was the stay of his widowed mother,
and were it left to short sighted mor
tals to judge of the wisdom or lhercy
in such dispensation of Providence,
we would say it was hard indeed for
him,to die. Thus, “Friend, after
Friend, departs,” etc.

Editor Times: —As Carroll county
was my home until I was twenty-one
years old, the Times is a welcome visi
tor. I always devouy its contents on
short notice. And as I scarcely ever
see anything in a Georgia paper from
North Texas, I have concluded to in
dite a fexv lines, from which, you mav
be able to glean something that will
he of interest to some ot your numer
ous readers, if I fail you can just place
them in your waste basket.
Fannin is one of the best counties
in North Texas. Borders on ltcd
River opposite the Choctaw and
Chickasaw Nations. The county is
about equally divided with prairie
and timber about one third being
black waxy land, the other portion
sandy. Good water in all portions of
the county. The prairie portion is
best suited to small grain, the §andv
portion is generally best suited to corn
and cotton.
Only a-small area of wheat was
grown in North Texas this season,
which will continue the present high
price of wheat $1,75 to $2,00 per bush,
el,.specie. The wheat crop is now be
ing thrashed, yielding from 15 to 25
bushels per acre. The oat crop is
very fine and is hoav being harvested.
The corn crop is very* promising.
An unusual amount of cotton is in
cultivation, which will cause corn to
be a fair price. I suppose I liadjoet
ter close as short pieces generally are
most acceptable. Yours truly,
E. 11. Adams.

Letter from a United States As
sessor.—The following letter from the
United States Assessor Jennings may
save some of our distilling friends
from trouble :
U. S. Inter at. Revenue, A
Assessor’s Oeeice, 4tiiDist, Ga., >
Atlanta, June 24, 1872. )
Sir : In reply to yours of the 22d,
I have to inform you that you have
erroneous impressions in regard to the
provisions of the act of Congress of
June C, 1872, relating to the distilla
tion of brandy from fruit.
The only change in the law as re
gards the interests or duties of fruit
distillers, is that all of the taxes are
consolidated into one; i. e. the gallon
tax, which is increased from 50 to 70
cents per gallon ; this takes, effect on
and after Aug. 1, 1872. The bond
must be given, and the notice, the
registry and survey made, the book
must be kept, and the sworn monthly
return made, the same as heretofore.
The brandy must be gauged by a
United Slates gauger, but at the ex
pense of the U. S., before the spirits
can he removed. The spints must be
put up in packages of 10 gallons or
more.
I repeat, to make the matter plain,
the only change in the law of July 20
1808, relating to the distillation of
brandy from fruit, is a consolidation
of the special or license tax, the gang
er’s fees and the gallon tax of 50 cents
into a gallon tax of 70 cents ; which
does not have to be paid until after
the spirits are guaged by a U. S.
Gauger. Persons who wish to com
mence operations promptly on the Ist.
day of August can have their papers
all made up in July.
Very respect full*-,
AViluam Jennings,
Assessor.
Resolutions. —The following reso
lutions were adopted aU the State
Democratic Convention:
Resolved, Thatdn the approaching
election the Democratic partj* invites
everybody to cooperate with them
in a zealous determination to change
the present usurping and corrupt Ad
ministration by putting in power men
who are true to the principles of consti
tutional government and faithful to
an economical administration of pub
lie affairs.
Resolved , That in our opinion the del
egates to the Baltimore Convention
shoulel go untrammelled b} instruc
tions, and should act, with all the
lights before them, as they deem best
for the good of the party and for the
welfare of the country.

Gen. D. H. HilL
HOME, ON GREELEY ADVOCATES HIM
FROM FKINCIPLE.
“ AA'e have always contended that
it was wrong to make policy the guide
of life. Palev’s doctrine of expediency {
has poisoned the minds of countless
thousands in Europe and America.—
It is never safe to confide in a man
who acts not according to his views
of the right, but according to what he
thinks will be popular with the peo
ple or profitable to himself.
“ AVe do not take Air. Greeley
therefore from policy, but from prinei- !
pie. AA'e take him because lie is with
us in all the essential principles which
are involved in the Presidential con
test. He is opposed to banning the
old leaders of the South. He is op
posed to carpet bagism. He is op
posed to military rule and the perse
cution of our people. He is opposed
to the thievish rings which bankrupt
the masses to enrich the rogues. He
is opposed to extravagance in admin
istering the government and high tax
es upon the people. He is opposed
to two terms in the Presidential of
fice—the first term being employed in
bribing the way with stolen monev
for a second term.
“ He is opposed to squandering the
public domain upon the swindler who
bribe President and Congress to pass
iniquitous railroad bills. He is op
posed to putting incompetents into
office, even should they be l*in to the
President. lie is opposed to making
a Poland of the South, and in favor of
winning our people by the law of
kindness. In brief, m all the living
issues of the hour, Air Greeley and
the South are in perfect accord. His
platform and lus letter embrace all for
which vve can now contend. It is be
cause ot this agreement in principle
that we accept him as our leader, and
not because of any low views of policy
and expediency.”
The Griffin Star has this :
Years ago when Bob Toombs was a
young lawyer, he was invited to go
in with several other parties in a spec
ulation in wild AA'estern lands. lie
put ip $5,000 and got 100,000 acres
of land, which is at a rate ot five cts.
per acre. The war ended, and Bob
Toombs returned to His ancestral
acres in AA'ilkes to his force find his
large force of slaves set free, and him
selt an outlaw of the Government,
with shattered fortunes; with spirits
•chrushed and health impaired. Be
lieving himself personally unsafe, he
went to Europe, where he remained
until he could safely return to Geor
gia. Returning to die upon his na
tive hearth, he expected confiscation
and poverty. But fortune smiled
on him. The Western lands came
into market, and his income now from
the proceeds of that purchase is said
to be about twenty-five thousand dol
lars per annum. The old AVilkes
homestead is still his own. He gets
as much law practice as he can attend
to at his own price. *- Ilis health has
much improved, and under all these
circumstances, we should say Uncle
Bobuel was decidedly comfortable,
and we are glad of it.
General Jural Early on Office
Seeking.—- General Jubal A. Early
has written a letter declining the use
of his name for Congress in the Lynch
burg (AY.) district. lie says :
“If over there was a time when
there was truth in the words of the
poet who has said “the post of honor
is a private station,” that time is now,
and it is none the less so because of
the trials Tittending that station in our
impoverished land, while office, espec
ially*under the United States, is gen
erally attended with large emoluments.
The great bane of our country at this
time is the wild hunt after office, and
I shall certainly not add to that evil
by my personal example.”
feaUTime and enlightened oxperi
dice have shown that certain sub
stances formerly used and relied on in
medical practice, are unnecessary and
dangerous ; yet some of these substan
ces have found their way into medi

contain nothing injurious, being com
posed exclusively of vegetable substan

An important case to planters,

Lee couiitv, last week. It was a suit
brought t>y Phillip AA'est against
Sanders AA r . Lee qf Dekalb county,
and Thomas Clemens, of Lee county,
It was for illegally enticing away and
hiring thirteen laborers in the employ
of plaintiff as field hands, in 1868.—-

AYe are glad to see by this verdict,

In Memoriam.
REV. JAMES M. BLALOCK.
“ Mark the perfect man. and behold t he upright:
for the end of that man is peace.”
After a painful and protracted ill
ligss, at half past seven o’clock, p. m.,
on the 18th ult, our beloved Brother
fell asleep in Christ Jesus, at his home
in Carrollton, Ga.
lie was born March 30, 1825; join
ed the Methodist Episcopal Church,
South, in 1852 ; and served faithfully
for many years as class leader atfd
steward.
Receiving a call to the ministry, he
was licensed to preach June 30, 1806.
The Not th Georgia Conference, at
its session of 1871, elected him to
deacon’s orders; but, being absent, he
was not ordained.
To various positions of honor and
usefulness, he was called by the suf
frages of his fellow citizens. Several
times was he the master of Carroll
Lod<xe, No, 69, F and A. M.; and from
the first organization ot the Court un
til 1868, he was the Ordinary of Car
roll County—serving about sixteen
years consecutively in that ofliee.
lie was, too, a successful merchant
being “ diligent in business,” and hon
oring God with his substance.
Modest and unobtrusive, gentle and
forbearing, patient and charitable
consistent in life and in conversation—
as a man, a citizen, a neighbor, a Mason,
a Christian, a minister of the Gospel—
in all the walks and relations of life—
he lived beloved and died lamented by
the entire community. In token of
respect for his memory, the business
of the town was generally suspended
on the day of his burial—every one
feeling as if lie, individually, had
suffered great loss.
If to society and to the church
his death is such a calamity, what
must it be to his family? The husband
and the father gone! Into that sacred
circle we dare not intrude; but ven
ture to remind those bleeding hearts,
of Him, who has promised to be the
husband, of the widow and the father
of the fatherless, and to commend
them to His care and protection.
W e mourn not, though as those,
“without hope;” for our brother left
abundant evidence of his acceptance
with God. Our loss is his gain. Yet,
we cannot but weep—nor think it un
manly nor unchristian—for “Jesus
wept” in keenest sympathy with hu
man sorrow.
“He rests from his labors, and his
works follow him.”
Resolved, 1. That whilst we reel un
derpins stroke, we yet bow with sub
mission before the throne ot God-“ Thy
will be done”—and girding up our
loins, will lay its lesson to heart, and
try to get ready for that hour of which
“no man knoweth.”
2. That we deeply sympathize with
our widowed sister and her children in
their sad bereavement, but would
point them away from earth to heav
en: “I shall go to him, but he shall
not return to me.”
3. That a blank page in the minute
book be inscribed to the memory of
our brother.
4. That this memorial be recorded
that the Carroll County Times and
the Southern Christian Advocate be
requested to publish it—and that a
copy thereof be sent to the family of
the deceased.

Died on the 28th ult., Edgar JI.
Wise, youngest child of Janies T. and
Mary M. Wise, age ten months, was
sick but a few days, when it was the
Lords pleasure to take it from its pa
rents, but the Lord giveth and the
Lord taketh, blessed be the name of
the Lord. We deeply sympathize with
the bereaved parents. May they ever
take warning, for call it
back, but they can go to it. I know
it is a sad feeling parents to give your
infant up, for one year ago we left our
sweet babe where you left yours. This
evening, we give it up to God. lie
can take better care of them than our
selves, for they are as bright and shin
ing angels now in Heaven where there
is no sickness, pain or death. May
the Lord be with the mourning fami

we may all be prepared when the day
shall come to stand like that little in

A Tribute of Respect.
Death has recently laid his restless
hand, upon one of our number, Mar
tha lleid—aged 16 years.j
Her footsteps will no njorebe heard
in our midst. Her voice will no lon
ger gladden the hearts, of her friends.
Her accustomed place will know her
no more forever.
Tho silver cord is loosed, the gol
den bowl is broken—thcftlaughter has
been called, from the beach of time,
to the undiscovered land, from whostp
bourne no traveler returns.
Be it resolved, that we cordially
sympathize with the bereaved, Father
and Mother ; \vho have lost an aflcc
donate and obedient daughter,
We deeply deplore her death, as
she bid fair to act in a noble sphere,
but the beautiful star is set, to rise no
more, till the loud clang of GiUmels,
Trump, calls her forth, to the bar of
God. Truly “the king, of shadows
loves a shining mark.”
