The Carroll County Times. CARROLLTON, Ga. Nov. 7, 1873 EDWIN R. SHARPE. Editor. OUIt AGENTS. The following gentlemen are authorized to act «s agents for theTutKS In their several localities: N. SiiELsrrTT Bowdon. J. M. 11 amrick Sand Ilill. yv. T. Richards Allens J/jlls. K. J. Gab» Villa Rica. Rev. 11. M. Newton Whiteeburg. Geo. Bonner: Bonners B. N. Doreett Chapel llill.Oa. J ones A. Anderson, Esq Atlanta, (la. lie should like to secure an agent at eve ry Rost Office in the countv. The State Fair. From tlic reports of the pres*, as well as from private individuals with whom we have conversed, we learn that the State Fair, held last week in the city of Macon, was one of the grandest expositions ever held in the Southern States. This is the univer sal opinion so far as we have heard. Cobb county carried off tho thous and dollar premium for the best ex hibition from a single county, and the Savannah cadets the premium for the best drilled military company in the State. There were estimated to have been on the grounds on Thursday twenty thousand people. The Fair in every sense of the word, was undoubtedly a success.— Vic see it stated in the Macon de partment of tho Atlanta Herald, that Mayor Iluff says, that the receipts up to Saturday night, were several thouss and dollars above all the expenditures of the Fair. Synod of Georgia.—This important ecclesiastical body of the Presbyte rian church, held its annual session last week in Newnan. Owing to the tightness of the times in money matters, it was not as fully attended as usual. The opening sermon was preached by the Rev. J. H. Nall of Columbus. The Rev. ‘-McCor mick was elected Moderator. The Synod adjourned on Sunday night last to meet in Savannah, on Thurs day before the third Sabbath in No vember, 1874. The Synod was treated in the most open lianded nsauner by the hospita ble citizens of Newnan, and their ses sion at that place will be associated in days to come, with the most pleasant of memories. The Woman’s Right’s advocates had a grand powwow in New York last week in which Mrs. Westmores land represented Georgia. Speaking of this assemblage the Savannah News pertinently says: We venture the opinion that Mrs Westmoreland very greatly mistakes live sentiments of the Southern wo men if she supposes that they are “heart hungry” as herself for the bal let, and tliat they are ready to rush into a revolution to secure it in order that they may exhibit their prowess in a scuffle at the polls on election day with their dusky fellow-citizens, Mrs. Dinah Johnson and Mrs. Phill’s Brown. BUT The President’s organ, the Washington Republican, says : “ Set it down as absolutely certain that within five years we shall have : “1. A postal savings bank. “2 A government telegraph. “3 A bureau of railroads and trans portation. “4. Free banking. “ The monopolists and rings may fight these measures and succeed in postponing them for a time, but they are certain to come.” These measures Grant will probably recommend in his message. The telegraphic columns of the papers are daily filled with strikes and reduction of wages among the la boring classes throughout the cour** try, as well as closing up of, some of the manufactories, shortening of time of others &c. The situation is indeed deplorable and instead of getting bet ter, seems to be getting worse. - Yellow Fever —Cheering reports come to us that the yellow fever is abating at Memphis, Shreveport and other points. The news from Bain bridge in this State is also favorable, and we hope soon to be able jo chron icle the entire giving away of Yellow Jack before Jack Frost. .. - A convention ot journalists has been called at St. Louis, on Wed nesday, the 26th day of November, 3 873, to organize a National Press Association. Every journalist is re spectfully solicited to attend. -i The partnership existing be tween Burton it Guinn, as publishers of the Randolph Enterprise, has been dissolved, Burton retiring. He will however still continue to edit the En terprise. ■ i CSTMiss Howard, daughter of the Rev. C. W. Howard of Bartow coun ty, entered sixty four coops of chick ens of her own raising, at the State Fair. —— «♦»-«. The Hon. Dunlap Scott of Rome, was_ mairied on la#t Thursday to Miss * Montgomery of Augusta, sionlJ! f ex ' Su Pi’cme Court Judge Montgomery. ° Georgia Doings. The third annual exposition of the Agricultural and Mechanical Associa tion of Georgia, will be held at the Fair Grounds, near Savannah, com mencing Monday, November the 18th and continuing six days. We take this occasion to thank Mr J. 11. Es till, the secretary,for a complimentary ticket to the same. The name of Col. J. L. Calhoun is suggested as a suitable candidate for Mayor, by a writer in the Newnan Herald. Captain Tom Lewis of Newnan, killed last week fifteen partridges at sixteen shots. The Cartersville Car Factory and Building Association have manufac tured during the past summer about one hundred cars. They have em ployed between sixty aud seventy mechanics, aggiegating with their families some three or four hundred persons. Under date of October 28th, Comp troller General W. L. Goldsmith is ssues the following circular to tax collectors : Numerous applications to extend time for collecting tax calls forth this circular. If I saw any pros pect for better times in the near future, I would gladly consent to such extern* sion, but do not. The tax-payer who fails to pay his tax in November, will, I fear, regret it, as the money strin gency, I think, will last some time yet. Planters should sell sufficient cotton to pay tax, or store some and draw against it, if they do not wish to sell. The editor of the LaGrange Report er has been presented with eight sweet potatoes, making near a bush el. Dr. Lovick Pierce preached in Hamilton last week. There is some scarlet fever in Har ris county Mrs. Eilis of Paulding county late* ly gave birth to three children at one birth, and Mrs. Stevens her daughter to six at three births, We are glad to learn from the* Al bany News that Col Tift has found at the North backers of his direct trade enterprise, but w r ould have been much more encouraged if he could have obtained assurances that a steam ship line would be started this instead of next winter. The News, of the 24th, says : Hon. Nelson Tift’s recent visit to the North, in the interest of the direct trade movement, was quite satisfactory. Negotiations were inaug urated lor a line of steamers, and it is believed the great undertaking will be successfully accomplished within a twelve month farthest. Col. Tift is sanguine, and whenever he expresses conviction that a work will be accorn plished, our faith is tremendously strengthened. The bold burglar of Atlanta is gets ting sacrilegious as he has commenced robbing the churches of that place. Mr. 11. M. Burns, for several years editor of the Greensboro Herald, died in Atlanta on Friday last of consump tion. Mr. B. was a young man of fine talents and made considerable reputa tion as editor of the Herald. These tw T o items from the Franklin News : Last week J. A. Ponder, Esq., kill ed two very large hawks in town-the largest measuring four feet from tip to tip. Now, let the Squire call on the ladies of Franklin for chicken - pies. A dead dog was found near Dr. Britton’s last week, with a snake, which was also dead, tightly wrapped around his legs. It is supposed the dog was mad. At any rate, both an imals were dead, and that is glory enough for one day. Dr. J. G. Westmoreland of Atlanta, is out with a treatise on Acology and Therapeutics. The book is published in Atlanta by the Plantation Publish ing company and is said to be gotten up in good style. An ox weighing four thousand five hundred pounds was on exhibition at the State Fair. Dr. R. D. Moore a leading physi cian of Athens, died on the 31st ulti mo of Pneumonia. Notwithstanding the hard times, the editor of the Meriwether Vindicator is still in good luck, lie still revels in the fat of the land. Scarlet, fever troubles the Bruns wick infants. Dawson is sheltering some of the Bainbridge refugees. Columbus has a Methodist minister who conducts three churches. The citizens of Griffin desire reform in the municipal government. Ice is reported at Columbus, Au gusta and other points. No skating as yet. The Bainbridge Democrat is pub lished on a half sheet, on account of the epidemic. Floyd county is this fall happier, in view of the increased imigration to that section of the State. The Western tfc Atlantic Railroad lessees have paid their monthly ren tal for October into the State Trea ury. The Gainsaille Advertiser ot Fri day reports the mast in its section as the heaviest crop for years. It also says that in portions of Banks and Franklin counties many fields of cot ton look ns if they had not yet been touched, so white are they with the fleecy staple. Powell Owens, an old and well known policeman of Atlauta, and for* merly one of the Justices of Inferior Court, died in that city on Friday. Tho Atlanta Constitution says that many people are saving persimmon seed for coffee, on account of the high price of the genuine article and the scarcity of greenbacks. Perhaps most ot us will find our Confederate expe rience valuable in the suggestion “substitutes” to help us through this panic. The contractors complain ot diffi culty in getting hands to work on the Augusta canal extension, while there are in the city hundreds of able bod ied negroes idle and without visible means of support In Wisconsin the stronghold of Re publicans the result is in doubt. Mr, Columbus Warthen, ot Wash ington county, produced this year, five bales of cotton on one acre of land. Some of the stalks made as high as six hundred bolls. One res plant stalk, planted on the 9th of June was exhibited at Sandersville last week with four hundred and thirty seven bolls on it, The manure cost about sl4l. Say the working, pick ing, etc., cost $34 more, in all $175. the five bales at 13 cents—allowing that the bales averaged 500 pounds— would yield $325, or a net profit of $ 150. —Atlanta Constitution. Election in Virginia and New 7 York.— The latest news from New York and Virginia indicate that the Democrats have carried those States by large majorities. Since the above was written, we have received the Thursdays papers in which the above news is confirmed. New York goes Democratic be tween 20 and 40,000. It gave Grant 20,000 majority one year ago. In Illinois, the people’s ticket (union of Democrats and grangers) beats the Radical ticket from 4,000 to 7,000. In Virginia, Kemper, Democratic candidate for Governor carries the State by 20,000 majority. All of the above States went for Grant by large majorities last year, ISaTStokes after having been tried three times is found at last guilty of manslaughter, and sentenced to four years at Sing Sing. Rev. Samuel 11. Smith, tor a long time editor ot the Cartersville Express is dead. KaT’ A statement having been made that the Rome Commercial had sus pended it is denied by that paper in a humorous card to the public. The New York Sun has the follow ing paragraph in regard to the forth coming book of Gen. Johnston : At last we are to have from one of the greatest—perhaps the greatest— of Southern Generals—his account of the w T ar. We refer to Gen. Joseph E. Johnston, whose history ot his campaigns is soon to be published in an octavo volume by Mr. Appleton.. It is to be embellished w 7 ith portraits of distinguished officers and maps of the various scenes of operations. — iiiE Prodigal Bullock.—Accord ing to a New 7 York paper, the illus trious bovine who whilom called hims self Governor of Geargia, by name Rufus B. Bullock, is enjoying his odium cum dignilate, in his native borough of Albion in that state, where it is feared by the respectable portion of the community he will make his home for the future, unless perchance he should get his deserts and be sent to the penitentiary. At present he bears bis exile w 7 ith char acteristic dignity, indulges his taste for fine horses, and the companion ship of his equals. The correspon dent who brings him to public notice says : On any pleasant day he may be seen upon our streets driving a team of handsome black horses, at tached to an elegant carriage. Ilis coachman, a negro, almost always ac companies him, sitting on the same seat with his distinguished master, and sometimes taking the reins.” Could there be any more convin cing proof that the negro race is de generating at least in self-respect.— Sa,v. Neios. imports of this conntrv in 1871-2 were $640,338,766. In 1872-3 they were $662,410,595, or an in crease of $23,071,831. The exports in IS7I-2 were 524,- 055,120 against $607,087, 466 in 18- 72-3. or an increase of $83,032,346. It wil be seen therefore, that the excess of imports, or the balance of trade against us with Europe, has fal len off from $116,283,646 in 1871 2 to $56,323,131 in 1872-3. **•>-•. A proposition, favored iu Adminis tiatiou circles, is to have the inaugu ration day of the Presidential term changed from the fourth of March till the first of July, so as to have it and the new fiscal year begin on the same day. It is not impossible that the I lesident may advocate in his an nual message, a constitutional amend ment making this cliauge ; but it is not likely to encounter a very fa vorable reception from a body engross ed w'ith schemes of financial relief. | Affairs in Utah.—Brigham Young, Mormon chief, is reported in very feeble health, causing serious uneasi ness to the great body of bis people, whose interests are dependent upon the prolongation of bis life. Natural ly, however, of a robust constitution, he is said to become impatient ; against any suggestions o f the ! possibiity ot bis early demise.— Still, with his characteristic foie thought, we dare say that when call ed for to cross the Jordon it will be i found that he lias put his house in or der. Meantime, the presence ofColo nel Fred Grant (son of the President) at Salt Lake City is naturally exciting some speculations there as to the ob ject of his visit. We suspect, howev er, that his only objects are to see the Mormons in their City of Zion, and, second, to see if General Morrow, United States military commander in Utah, cannot find something to do for a roving young lieutenant desirous ot active employment.— New York I osk. «■»> 1 i <»!».>-«-C=»»i SgsT* The Dupree Will Case was settled "by compromise last week, by which Mr. Chas. Dupree, of Bear Creek, got $4,039 ; Fleming Dupree, of this county, got $4,090. These were brothers of the deceased. Their lawyers seem also to be Dupree heirs, they get the lion’s share, being $12,- 000. Messrs. Peeples and Stewart got thirty-eight hundred dollars. On the other side Bob Toombs got about twenty thousand dollars, Lint Stes phens estate got a big share, and Alex. Stephens also. After the lawyers all got through there was still a big pile left for old man Dupree’s children.— Griffin Star. g-L^. l . ll ,‘™ J" 11 '.. 1 - ■' " ■■ 1 ■ ■ NEW ADVERTISEMENTS. Auction! Auction!!
