The Rock mart Reporter Bays that town is gi owing slowly but surely. Col. T. A, Manghatn of Macon, but formerly of Griffin is dead. The Municipal election is trouble itig the Griftinites. And now Wooten of the Newnan Herald has been presented with a po tato weighing seven pounds. The premium of one hundred dol lars, offered for the best amateur per former on the piano at the State Fair was awarded to Miss Leonora Mc- Landless, ot Atlanta. Our exchangee all over the State aie filled with circus advertisements. The last issue of the Newnan Herald and the Griffin papers have two adver tised. This paragraph is going around : The Smith-Jolmson correspondence is still progressing. Gov. Smith has written his last letter. An effort is being made to arrange the matter. The Cartersvillc Express says that a number of planters of that county are getting up a cargo of cotton to ship direct to Liverpool. At the late term of Polk Siq»erior Court S. J. Cox was tried for killing Charles Persons at jßockmart about a .year ago. The jury were out but a few .minutes when they returned a verdict of not guilty. Mr Stephens in the Atlanta Con stitution of the‘6th "met. pays a beau tiful tribute to the memoiy of 11. M. Burns, former editor of the Greens burrow Herald, who .lately died In At lanta. A meeting has been held in Folk couuty in which resolutions were passed, calling for a irtate convention to charge the present constitution and also recommending the re-enact ion of the usury laws. The meeting was addressed by Col. Batt Jones, Capt. T.. W. Dodd, and Major Joe Blance. Augusta Constitutionalist : The Columbos Sun has this item of news : “Ex Governor Brown has erected a beautiful and costly monument to It is son. Franklin Pierce Brown, re cently deceased. The great loss sus tained by his early death may be itu ferred from a remark made concerning him by Hon. A, 11. Stephens.: Such a prodigy of intellect and virtue, in a bod) 1 so frail, I never met with in any other human form, and never ex peet to, if I were to live a thousand years.” This expression has been in scribed upon the monument. Young Brown was only eighteen years of age.” We remember-this youth, who was terribly crippled and looked many yeara older than he really was. dt was said, at the time we saw him, that while devoted to his father, he did not agree with ’him politically. — Frank was a great Democrat, and did not believe in “accepting the situa tion. CARROLLTON, GEORGIA. FRIDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER H, 1873.

The secret of happiness is to make the best of everything ; no matter what happens to annoy, let it all glide along as easily, and with as few words of complaint and fault finding as ocssi ble. Little inconveniences will intrude upon the most fortunate people, so the onl) way to he master of every situation is make up your mind not to notice small annoyances. People may keep themselves in a con-taut broil over what amounts to nothing ; and, without accomplishing the least good, may ruin the peace and quiet of a household. We cannot have every thing just as we want it in this world, and the sooner a person understands 'that fact the sooner they may have a true basis for happiness. It is the greatest folly to set the heart upon uncertainties, and then, if “disappointed, refuse to be comforted cr reconciled. Do the very best yon canpand then take things as they eotne. If a man strives with his best knowledge, ener> gy and untiring labor to accomplish a certain object, he is a success, whether (he scheme fails or succeeds, and he ought to reconcile failure if it was inevitable. If his labors have been of brain and hand, ho is better lilted to succeed in other underta kings. A Peaceful Home.— A house is no home winch holds a gaumbliug father, a scolding mother, a dissipated son ; a lazy daughter and a bad tempered child. It may be built of marble.— surrounded by garden, park and fmin tains, carpets of extravagant costliness may cover its floors ; pictures of the rarest merit may adorn its walls ; its tables may abound with dainties the most luxurious, its every ordering may be complete, but yet it will not be a home ;to make it such there must be a change of inmates. General Gordon.— Evc-iy Georgi an must have felt proud yesterday of the battle-scarred hero of a hundred fights, our own Gordon, as he viewed with a soldier’s eye the splendid ev olutions ot the sevends leagniticant companies who were exercised on the Park parade ground. Though in cit izen’s garb, and now representing bis State in the most exalted civil offices in her gift, every inch still a soldier, his martial bearing made the fact patent.to the least observant.— Macon Telegraph November 2nd. Never Heard it Thunder.— We heard a good joke from Texas the oth er day, which was more amusing as it was told than we can make it in print. A planter had taken a great deal of pains in gathering two bales of cotton, and a drop of rain had never touched either of them. They were of exactly the same grade, -and without the slightest difference in any respect. He carried them to Sher man. A cotton buyer sampled them both and offered the highest market prisedor one-bale, “but.” said he to the planter, “the other bale looks a little stormy.” The planter discern ing the object of the buyer, exclaim ed, “Why, that cotton has never heard it thunder !”— Atlanta Constitution. With Yot u Might. —You cannot pay too csTefill attention to business if you want to succeed, that is, it is the result of practical, everyday expert* ence. that steady attention to matters of detail lies at the root of human Dt-Qgress, and that diligence, above all ,is the mother ot good lnck. Ac curacy, also, is of much importance, and an invariable mark of good train ing in a man—accuracy in observa tion, accuracy in the transaction of affairs. "W hat is done in business must be well done, for it is better to accomplish asm all amount of work than to hall do times as much. Yet, in business affairs, it is the manner in which even small matters are trans acted that often decides men for or against you. With virtue capacity and good conduct in other respects the person who habitually inaccurate cannot be trusted ; his work has to be gone over again, and he thus causes -cudless annoyance, • vexation, and trouble. The Lazy Idler. —There is more hope for an infidel than for a man who will not work. An idler is a curse to any community—an unprofitable servant that should be cast out of so ciety. He eats that which others make, and sits in ease and takes no interest in being a man of industry.— He is a hopeless cuss, and the female that commits her heart and happiness to his keeping, will lean upon a bro ken reed and weep bitter tears of sor row. But see a man diligent in busi* ness lie shall stand before kings, while the lazy man will ask alms to keep soul and body together. BiH Arp on the Panik. “Everybody Orot to do the very BEST HE CAN.” Mr. Nevin —Sun :—ln these tryin tiine3 I think every man ort to do the I very best he can. Geo. Wyatt axd i for my views upon the situation and thats exakly what I told him. Savs I, “George, do you go home to your hash house anti do the very liest you can.’ George seemed to understand me and made tracks tor his tavern. He’l cum out all light—George will. When possums get seace he can live on koon. 1 he main isshoo in this crisis seems to be a little diftikulty in exchangin the produkts of the country. Every body says there is a plenty* of every thing but theres no money to keep it movin. Sum toaks who used to credit right smart are now runnin the cash skedulc, which amounts to a regular biokade. I should think a hmiak would know-that its the worst time in the world to begin a cash svs- I tern, when there aint no cash. If ev erybody would swap round what; they hav got to spare it would soot j most ot us mity well. Anybody is i weloum to swap with me for anything ! in my line of bi.-noss. and if my price don t soot ’em I’ll cum down to theirs j rather than break a trade, /or you • know the margin on my side is big enuft to allow right smart room for ! dodgin. At all events I intend to do the very best-1 can. The credit system is good enuf for ! * * • ** | me ana m my opmyun it is a highly harmonious and friendly institution. I It makes people respectful and re spektable When I owe a good heart* ed man ho feels kindly towards me just hekaus he had befriended me.— He feels sorter like I was one of bis pet lams. W 1 ien he reads ovor the ! parable of the good Samaritan he rni knonshiousiy says to himself me. I helped Arp and his luvly off spring when nobody else wouldent.” I think it would be a good thing if everybody owd one another all around. It improves the tone of society. It enlarges the heart and has a good ef fekton the liver. It settles ones din* ner, and hence Mr Solomon writ about bowels off mercy and bowels of compassion. I never knowed one of these corked-up cash men but what was dispeptikal. I never knowed a man who paid cash for everything who had any cash to lend a poor fel ler without sekurity. A cash man is always an independent man, and you can’t joke with him to do anv good. I don’t like them sort much. Thev think their money is a little better than anybody elases money’. They live at home and board st the same place, but the latchstring don’t hang on the outside much. They don’t want anybody to borrow their wheel barrel* nor get water out of their well. Still, I suppose they are tryin to do the very best they can. I like a man who can’t refuse a poor feller credit when lie needs it .and is tryin to pay. In fakt its better to credit him and lose it than to be dodg ing round the truth to keep from it or to die of ossilikashun of the heart and peck rock sun the next world for a livin. I knowed a poor shoe maker oust to ax a store keeper to trust him for a pair of shoe pinchers. The store keeper told him he would do so but he didnt hav a pair in the house The poor teller looked around sadly and happened to see ern upon the top shelf, with one pair outside the rap per. “Why, ther’s sum Mr. Mack,” says he. Mack wilted for a moment, but he ra I lid and savs, “thpm «up there are steel pinchers and are worth just two dollars and a half." Joe knowed they was iron and was worth cents but he mersently remarked that he had never had a steel pair and lie believed he would try cm. Mack always declared them pinchers was mity well sold tho he never got the money. I think however every’ man ort to do the very’ best he can. But of all times in tne world I look upon the credit system as just the thing for a panik—not that the panik is anything pertikler to me. By no means. I’ve been right in the middle of one all my life. I’ve never seed the time that there wasent a crisis at my house. I was born *in a strain, and it foi’iored me up like a shailder ever since. I’ve got akklimated to it, as the dokters say. It’s part of my daily entertainment to contrive for future supplies It keeps me lively and polite and amiable. I hear these merchants taw-kin about “bridgin over” and “hedgic in” and a hole to-day’ to be filled up to-morrow. Well, every man and woman in these times ort to do the very best he or she can, but as for hedgin and bridgin I could hav got a patent right for all that sort of bisness 20 years ago, and had it renewed for improvements ev ery year since. No sur, I’ve no idea jinin the cash system at my time of life, and espeslnially just at this per tikler period. My constitution would ent stand it. It’s goin to be jest all that a feller can do to git through this squeeze on a credit, and as foi me I would perish to deth in twe days it my existence depended on the cash. It s goin to take a dabble team to pull through this mud hole, shore, and right smart pushin behind.— \\ eve all got the -fcreechin on at mv house, and we’ll go -through if the ha me string don’t break” and the durned thing dont last too long.— Oiie of these long-winded pnniks would strain my credit system power fully’, but everybody must do the very best he, she or it can and trust to Providance for the sequel. Mr. Nevin, sur—Now is the time for leaks to show what metal they are made of. Now is the time for soaks to hold up their beds and hav confidence. If every-body has got a surplus, will lend it to them who has ent (one of whom I am which) things : will git equalized and regulated in no time. There is a plenty of money and plenty of truck for if it was decided out right. I’ve always managed to git my sheer, though at times it’s required more strategy to keep the little Arps in vittels and | cloaths than Bonypart displayed in his retreat from Moscow. I tell you what’s a solemn fakt, a whole passel of ehildt en ot ail sizes, from a saddle tack up, will sharpen a poor man’s wits quicker than anything m the world—espeslnially it the old hen keeps up a respektable cacklin in the rear. “Keep a movin, old man,” in says she, “keep a moving and never say die. Bull Run's shoes are out at the toes, Chikahominy ha*e:it got a whole coat to his back, and you know ■ lie’s beginin to notice the girls a lit tle, and wants to go decent: Shenan doah must have a meriner dress tor the winter, and the baby is obloeged to have a pair ot little blankets for his crib. Five or six of the others want shoes and stokens jest as soon as you are able to get ’em. The sltugar is out, and the coffee is low, and last week’s washm aint paid for, and you must send a man to fix that leak in the roof to-morrow.” Mv good wife is a thoughtful omen, and when she tells me she wants any thing £s soon as I git able, I know ex actly what that mentis. It means she ; wants it by to morrow night, if not sooner, and I tell you 1 always diss play my finest takliks in such emer gencies. In fact, Ido the very best I can. It’s the cuaifort of my life to say, I’ve almost always worked up to her skedule. It the future looks dark I shut my eyes and dream over the past 1 like Ed Newton beeaus lie keeps bis spirits up. lie’s a drummer in New York, and he sed that in all ! this tremengious crisis, which have j slink the nation from center to cir- j kumference, the New York drummers had stood firm and solid as the reck of gi brawl ter. He sed they was all a doin the very best they could. Sid j Hughes is an envious man, I rccken, | for he sed the New York drummers i was even with the world, and had | nuthin to bust on. That they owened about as many as they didnt owe and didnttkeer a darn. Well I know that Ed is mity clever for lie give me a hat—which hat however, hav excited some invidious and random remarks sense I got home. Sieh remarks are very natural when a man goes to wearin new cloths before he pays for the old ones. My motto hav always been to do ! the very best you can, and keep one • eye open to the bright side. The ! mountains most always disappear jest ; before you get to ’em, and if you do • hav to climb over okkasionally, you | are shore to find a few llowers on the j way up if j’ou look for’em. A chest ! nut burr has got a sweet nut hid away j in the middle of it. There’s a heap I of good things with burrs over ’em, and he’s a sensible man who knows liow to git the goodies out without stickin his fingers. I’m not goin to go crazy about a panik or lost money, or busted banks or any other transito ry sercumstance. A little meal and a few potatoes will do my family till times git better, and I know a doften clever farmers who will trust me tor that. Farewell sirkus—farewell, old clown ! There’l be a big gap in your aujience this time, shore. Me and the boys can make up a respectabul ring and play hos at home if we want j to, and Mrs. Arp and the girls can i set around and holler, whoopee. At! any rate, we are bound to do the very best we can. It’s every man’s duty these times to bo keerful and prudent. Paradise wasnt made for fools. I went aches nut lmntin one day with a feller, and he got oat on a limb and cut it ofPbe twixt him an 1 the tree. lie broke his arm, and had like to have broke his neck. I heard a poor carpenter say yesterday that he be doge 1 his cats if he would nt lay down and die before he’d work for less than two dol lars a day, panik or no panik. I | don’t feel responsible for no sich.— They may go to heaven in their own billoon, if they want to. Me and Josh Billins was a lookin at the Graffik bil loon the other day, and after it was gone he heavd a sigh and, says he, ‘ Arp I don’t like bHloons. About 18 year ago I tuk around a bat to raise 75 dollars to hire a feller to go up in one, and he went up as strait as an arrow. It was a cam, still day in June, and I gazed at him and saw him go up, up, untell lie went clean ont of sight. Nobody lias ever seed that billoon or that man from that day to this, and my hope is that he went ded strait to heven ; tho 1 aint a war ran tin that line 'to nobody at this time.” Well, I don’t like em either, but I will advise them who aspires to go that way to heven to do the very i best they can. Lastly, Mr. Nevin, I want to re mark that these paniks, theso collap ses, these bust ups, theso “ top nots j cum down,” are just as necessary for j the good of the country as an emetik is to an overcharged stummak. Mu a- | ny to be helthy must be skattered I around so that evrybody can git sum. When its most all piled up in a few : pyramids the least jostle will tumble it to the ground. If I was King I’d fix a remedy tor bloated fortunes mi ty quick. I’d tax a man nuthin on an incum of 5 thousan dollars and under. I’d tax 10 per ct. on all between 5 and ten thousan. Twenty per ct. on j all between 10 and 20 thousan, and so on doubliu up to 50 thousan. Above that I’d take it all, evry dollar. I tell you that will git em. That will keep down these Wa 1 st. rings. It will let a man hav enuft’ for all decent and respektable ptiposes, and after that he must do his sheer for them who swet and toil and havent been as smart or as mean or as lnckv as himself. It will put a limit upon a mans avarice | aud keep rnunny in better employ meat than pay in ss9,tor a horse or 100 thousan for a diamond pin.— When this law is passed, Mr. Nevin, otirfajgily supplies will be so cheap that tne likes of me and you wives and children can frolik half our time. I think your totner leg would grow out and the hair cum back ob the top of mv head, the place where the hair ort to grow. Untiil that gatorious time let ss all do the very best we can. Yours, Bio. Arp. An Outrage. Fate has laid a hard hand upon the people iff South Carolina. Crushed beneath the tumbril-wheel of war, they have supped with sorrow aud 1 walked hand in hand with desolation. Their treasury has been plundered by political adventurers, and their lands have been sequestered nominally for taxation, but really to appease the greed of the harpies who fastened up on the offices of trust and profit.— These things, harrowing as they were to a defenceless people, however, were not altogether unbearable. The<y grew naturally out of the fact that robbers and thieves were elevated in to power, in some instances by Fede ral bayonets, and m others by a class ot the population brutally ignorant But if accounts from our sister State be true, her citizens have a still more bitterly degrading ordeal to go through. On Saturday, the 18th, according to the Chester Reporter of the 23d, a re spectable white lady of that place was dragged to jail by a negro constable for an alleged contempt of a negro court. The facts ofihe ease aro about as follows : Mrs. William M. Robins had been arrested on a warrant issued by B. F. Michael, a negro trial justice, upon the complaint of one Nathan McAliley, another negro, that she had made an assault upon him. In obe« diance to the arrest she appeared at the trial justice’s office accompanied by her counsel, General W. A. Walk er. While the bond for her appear** ance for trial was being prepared she ami Iter counsel were standing at the door conversing. Mrs. Robbins re marked that she was done with nig gers on her plantation, that they gave her so much trouble that she did not intend to have any more of them about her. At this Michael tlew in to a rage, accused her of having in* suited him, and ordered that she should be confined in the common j jail of the county for a contempt of j his court. In vain did site disclaim : having said a word about the court ; in vain aid she deny any purpose* to insult the trial justice ; in vain her i.-cofc’P.sel, General Walker assured the i trial justice that tho remark had no reference to either him or his court ; the commitment was written out, plac ed in the hands of Isom Grier, a ne* gro, and orders given to him to carry the prisoner to jail. The poor woman watJ*led oft’terror stricken at the idea of being incarcerated in jail, and at the unparalleled outrage that was being perpetrated upon her ; and this manifestation of fear on her part gave occasion to a crowd of savage, fien dish negro women to gather around the constable and exult in the specta cle. The husband of the unfortunate lady could think of nothing to do but to run to Judge Mackey for assistance. The judge came upon the scene, aud by some means induced Michael to countermand his order and discharge the prisoner. The Reporter concludes its account of the outrage in these words ; “We will not trust ourself to make any com ments ;jbut will leave it for every white man who reads it to indulge n such reflections as the bare recital of the tacts may ca’l up n hi Abreast.” Important to Bankrupts. Persons who are indebted to a bankrupt estate must be very careful .how they make payments to any one who claims to represent it. After commencement of proceedings in bankruptcy, the title to all such debts will rest in the assignee, although he may not then be appointed, anil the payment to the insolvent himself, or to any other party for him after such time, will be of no avail to protect tlie debtor fr.un paying the same amount over again to the assignee, who can sue for and receive it. Wo know of a coal dealer here, says a New York ex change, who sold all h:s customers their winter supply of fuel, a id then became insolvent, and applied tor the -benefit ot the bankrupt act. After the proceedings were -commenced, and public notice hail been given in some obscure paper not generally cir culated, the dealer went around and collected all his bills. His customers paid him in good faith, knowing nothing of his pecuniary troubles, and took his receipt. Ji very one of them was obliged afterward to pay the debt over .again to the assignee, who h&d the dealer’s books, and proceeded to collect every dollar not paid to him before the proceedings were commenc ed. Memory of the Dead.— lt is an ex quisite aiid beautiful thing in our na ture, that when the heart is touched and softened by some tranquil happi ness or affectionate feeling, the mem ory of the dead comes over it most powerfully- and irresistably. It would almost seem as though our bet ter thoughts and sympathies were charms, in virtue of which the soul is enabled to hold some vague and mys terious intercourse with the spirits of those whom we*<dearly loved in life. Alas, how often aud how long may those patient angels hover above us, watching for the spell which is seldom uttered and so soon forgotton.
