F. church in this place, by the Rev. W. F. Quillian. J. J. Julian, Esq., has* a very fine young peach orchard, judging from a specimen of the fruit we saw the other day taken from it. The orchard was planted out by Captain Eve, who took great care in the se lection of the fruit. Our friend, M. R. Russell, has our thanks for a very fine water melon. He brought in on last Monday the finest load we ever saw brought to Carrollton. We learn that. Air. J. C. Atta way of the Eleventh district has sold out to a Mr. Davis of Heard county. He sold for $3,500. Judge Buchanan adjourned Doug las court on last Monday on ac count of sickness in his family. Air. Joe Hutcherson, down on the river, renewed work on last Monday on his famous Bottom’s floating mill, it will be ready soon we understand for operation. The saw mill of Mr. Jim Atkin son, situated some 3 or 4 miles east of Whitesburg was * destroyed by fire, at about 11 o’clock on last Sunday. Some shingles and lum ber and a lathing machine were al so destroyed. The value of the en tire property destroyed is estimated at $2,000 The election for delegates at this place on last Saturday passed oil quietly, though things were lively as the vote was pretty evenly bal anced. There were only two tick ets in the field, one Colquitt and the other opposed to his renomina tion. The Colquitt ticket was com posed of the following gentlemen : G. S. Sharp, J. R. Brown, J. J. Gaston, N. T. Skinner, Sam Burns. The other side was repre sented by J. W. Stewart, H. M. Wisdom, T. Spurlock, Gilbert Colo, J-. 11. Archer. The vote was 110 for Colquitt and 104 for the opposition. Judge Buchanan of this judicial circuit has recently been on a visit to Kansas and Northern Texas.— He was captivated with the coun try. Now is the time to subscribe for your county paper. The political cauldron is beginning to boil and soon she will be sizzing. Now is tiie time, come up and subscribe. A protruded meeting commenced at Stripling’s chapel on last Satur day. It is being conducted by Rev. W. 11. Speer and we learn that they have a good meeting. Mr. W. A. Lyle, out near Striplings elnipel, has one of the finest fields of cotton in that section of the county. Some of the friends of Gov. Col quitt say we misconstrued his speech when we stated that he de nounced all who opposed him as slanderers, dogs, Arc. Well may be we did, but we wish simply to say, that if he made any distinc tion between those who honestly opposed him and any other class of Ids opponents, we failed to catch it. His denunciations as we understood them were general and wholesale. We see from the South Lowell Ad vocate published at South Low ell Jasper county, Alabama, that lion. B. M. Long, formerly of this oouuly, is a candidate for the Leg islature from Jasper and that he is stumping the entire county, having 21 appointments down in his pub lished notice. Mr. T. W. Dimmock lias laid upon our table some onions raised this year from tho seed. They are medium size and very tine. The lion. Ilenry Persons, A. H. Cox and P. F. Smith candidates for Congress from this district, all spoke here on last Tuesday. Mr. Cox, who is quite a pleasant and eloquent speaker, dwelt particularly upon national officers, and made a good speech. Mr. Persons told us about Congress and what he had done there and his friends were well pleased with his effort. Mr Smith made a speech full of humor and wit and had the house con vulsed with laughter from the be ginning to the end of his remarks.— They were all very pleasant and courteous in their allusions to each other and everything passed off very agreeably. They all spoke on the next day at Bow don, and on Saturday, Mr. Persons and Smith spoke in Fairplay district. Messrs. Mandeville Sc West who bought not long since the planing mill and sash and door manufactory of Mr. W. S. McElfresft, one of the finest pieces of property in this section of the State, are gradually working themselves into a good business. If being accommodating and doing work at low figures will secure business in their line, thev will get it. Their facilities for planing and fitting lumber and for making sash and doors are not sur passed anywhere, as they have the very best of machinery for that purpose. If you want anything in their line be sure to call and see them. After the convention had ad journed on last Monday Mr. Thom as Jackson of the Third district be ing called upon responded in a short speech in the course of which he announced that he was a candi date for the Legislature, subject to the Democratic nomination. Mr. Jackson’s speech was well received. E- B. Merrell Esq., also being call ed upon, responded in quite a hap py manner* In the course of his remarks he said that lie had lately resolved upon quitting three things, all of which he was complete mas ter of, but he saw the demoralizing tendency of them, and he thought it time to hold up. Those .three things were fishing, marble playing and politics. Dr. W. C. New sold one day this week, $2,000 worth of machinery to Messrs. R. F. Miller A Son of this county. Tins machinery con sisted of a 15 horse power . engine, cotton press, feeder, cotton gin and saw mill. The Sunday-school association of Carroll county will hold its first quarterly meeting as has already been announced", on next Satur lay, the 31st, at Siinsville, in the Sixth district. Our friend B. F. Wilder is down in the lower part of Heard county on a visit and ho writes ns a long communication from which we learn that while some of the crops down there are a failure, there is a full crop of politics, and there are a plenty of fellows who “want to go there too.” He say’s that there are several candidates in Heard for the senate from this district. The Masonic fraternity at this place have recently had their hall above Kramer’s store painted up and otherwise improved. They have also purchased a number of chairs for the same. Since the completion of the addi tion to Mr. Kramer's store room lie lias had his private office enlarged and the whole building repainted, thus adding very much to its gen eral appearance. Mr. K. now has everything snugly fixed up for a big trade this fall. Recollect the meeting of the Agricultural society at the Mason ic Hall on next Saturday. The ladies are invited to be present and Col. S. W. Harris will deliver an address welcoming them to mem bership in the society, if they should wish to join. Tne Chattahooche Musical Con vention met at Mt. Zion, Turkey Creek district, on yesterday. — Prof. J. P. Reese and Prof. Gurley of Coweta county, passed through this place on last Wednes day on tliir way to the Convention. We received just before going to press the proceedings of the con vention held here on last Monday with a request to publish, which we would do with pleasure, if we had not already published the same substantially in editorial items in this issue. The convention was presided over by Dr. Slaughter of Villa Rica and T. A. C. Smith of Bowdon was secretary. AH 1 ndorse It. The Recorder, Americas, Ga., says: “Clerks, Senators, Represen tatives, Doctors, Lawyers, Citizens, in public and in private life, are testifying by the thousands, and over their own signatures, that a remedy has been found for Bright’s Disease of the Kidneys and for Di abetes; these are respectively known as Warner’s Safe Kidney and Liv er Cure and Warner’s Safe Dia betes Cure.” 20-3 in Unquestionable. The Herald, Detroit, Mich., says of Warner’s Safe Liver and Kidney Cure: “Its efficacy in kidney, liver, and urinary disuses is so fully ac knowledged that it is not worth the questioning. Bona fide testimoni als from well-known citizens in public and private life are eviden ces strong enough to convince the most stubborn doubter.” 20-3 m ('orrc<tpii(lenr. The following correspondence cent to us from A ilia Rica is pub lished by request: Villa Rica, Ga., July 19th,'80. Oscar L. Reese Esq., Carrollton —Dear Sir : — We the undersign ed most earnestly solicit you to ad dress the people of Villa Rica, 21st inst., in behalf of the Democratic party of Carroll county. Yours respectfully, S. C. Candler, W. J. Doster, J. N. Algood, AND MANY OTHERS. Carrollton, Ga., July 20th, 'BO. Messrs. S. C. Candler, W. J. Doster, J. N. Algood, et. al: — Yours received this afternoon and in reply say that lam too unwell to comply with your request, besides, rm T business is such that 1 could not possibly leave it. I want to say this much though to you and through you to my friends in Villa Rica.— That 1 think the time has come when the citizens of Carroll county should frown down and discourage this annual invasion, of anxious, ar dent and ambitious candidates, full of self-laudation and but little else. The political discussions of the day have degenerated to mere personal glorification and abuse and the prin ciples of our party are entirely ig nored. This kind of a canvass will finally disintegrate it, because it engenders so many personal animos ities, that men will not easily for get them when the final issue is neglected. Principles and not men, were the subject matters of discus sion in the purer days of the De mocracy. Now, the rule is revers ed. It is men not principles. We have already seen the result practi cally illustrated in this and the Seventh Congressional district.— Every true Democrat, and we es pecially of Carroll, should so act as to destroy this species of canvass ing. Let the gentlemen wait un til they are settled by the proper authority to become the standard bearersof the Democratic party, and then, if they have personalities, they can indulge them against those hostile to the party, not those in the party, and have time left to dis cuss its principles. Yon can use this any . wav you desire. Again regretting that circum stances are such as to deprive me of the pleasure of complying with your request, I remain your friend, Oscar L. Reese. Harper's Magazine For August is a bright summer Number. From “the leverock’s song” amid the fields of Ayr, which Longfellow seems to hear as he writes of Burns in the opening poem, we are taken by Philip O. Sullivan to the pastoral nooks about Newport ; and in his beau tiful idyl we hear the “pipes of A ready.” Certainly Miss Oakey must heard them when she made the exquisite drawings which illus trate this charming pastoral. Then, in Re ecca Harding Davis’s “By paths in the Mountains,” we catch a more robust strain from the farms of Pennsylvania and the heights of the North Carolina Black Range. Mr. Conway, with another and older song, lures us across the seas, and in the midst of the beau ties of the Touraine —the gardan of France—recounts the legends associated with St. Martin. Both Mrs. Davis’s and Mr. Conway’s articles are beautifully illus trated. Between them has been placed Noro Perry’s fine poem, “Henry of Navarre before Paris,” with a masterly illustration by Fredricks. Following Mr. Con wav's “Martin Summer” notes, Mr. Charles E. Chase contributes an illustrated article on “The Crusing Canoe and its Outfit”—a very timely as well as interesting paper, in view of the Canoeists’ Conven tion about to be held at Lake George. William Black’s “Yacht ing Romance” prolongs the en chanting summer melody ; and the short stories—“Mr. Tolman,” by Frank R. Stockton and “A Boat ing Adventure, by John Esten Cooke—are in complete harmony with the scheme of the number, adding a glow of romance to its other varied charms. Emily Hun tington Miller’s beautiful “Boat- Song” is a graceful expression of the same spirit, Ilenry James, Jr., contributes the second part of his new novel, “Washington Square;” and Blackmore’s “Alary Anerly" is concluded. In the Editor's Easy Chair Mr. Wilkie Collins’s article on International Copyright is discussed. Among the other topics treated are Nominating Con ventions, Madame D'Arblay’s Diary, the Passion Play atOberam mergau, Weather Talk and Hen ryJamesJr. The Literary Re cord is a very complete summary of recent hooks, and the drawer is unusually entertaining. Foam From Rillovr. Shiloh camp meeting will com mence tliis year on Friday night, August the 6th. Several distin guished preachers from a distance are expected. Uncle Joe Walker, who for a long time has been sick is to-day (Monday) very bad off. He is not i expected to live. Learn that it has been deter s mined not to have a camp meeting at Bethel this year, which has her tofore embraced the 4th Sunday in August. A protracted meeting will be held instead of a camp meet ing. Mrs. Arnold, the late widow of Uncle Johnnie Arnold, died at her home near Billow at about sunset Saturday evening last. She has been sick for a long time though her death at the time was not ex pected. She was about seventy two years old. In addition to the above items our Billow correspondent writes two political squibs, in reply to ed itorial matter which appeared in our paper last week. We do not publish these two last items, for the simple reason, Fiat the election in this county is ovei, and there is no use in stirring up a matter which lias been settled, for if we publish we should reply to the same. All the sweet singers and public speakers use Coussen’s Honey of Tar, for it clears the voice and dis pels hoarseness: one teaspoonful scatters the cow-webs in the throat more harmlessly and effectually than an intoxicating drink. Moreover, it is the best remedy in the world for coughs, colds and diseases of the throat and lungs. Price 50 cts a bottle. Use Coussens’ Honey of Tar.
