Quite a number of our subsbri
bcrs have come up and squared old
scores this week and last, and paid
in advance for another year. Our
creditors arc rnstling us up now.—
Our paper maker wants his money,
the family grocery man is restless
about his bills, the boys clam
or for their wages and even the
“devil” duns us. Under all this
pressure we aie more than grateful
to the friends who have come to
our aid. “A friend in need is a
friend indeed,” says old adage,
and it is true. And we are proud
to say that the patrens who have
thus come to our help have not
been moved to the support of the
Times by flattering personal noti
ces in its column’s. It has been
said that “The friendship of a dog
that can be relied on is of more ac
count than the friendship of a
man who must be bought with
gifts.” Impressed with the truth
of this aphorism, we have not
sought to gain favor or patronage
bj tilling our columns with empty
personal compliments. Striving to
build on a more solid foundation,
we have sought to make our paper
a record of uuirent events in which
our patrons arc interested; —to
make it a means of entertainment
to the old, and of instruction ana
amusement to all; —a reflex of pop
ular opinions and a vehicle of in
dependentthought, catering to no
class or prejudice, conceding to
all, the same right of private opin
ion that we claim for ourselves.—
We have felt that if, in the expres
sion of our views, we were ham
pered with fears of conflicting
opinionfl and rnanlfrnnt pat-
ronage, we would be unworthy of
support. We rejoice that we have
the best evidence of the public ap
proval of our independent course
in the continued support of our
patrons,—even of those who have
not infrequently differed from us
in their views on important ques
tions of public policy.
The County Commissioners.
The gentlemen named in the bill
providing for a board of County"
Commissioners held their first meet
ing Sept. 22nd.
Messrs Arthur Hutcherson, B.
A. Sharp, J. K. Roop, N. A.
Windsor and W. D. Lovvorn were
named in the act, but we learn
that Mr. Lovvorn declines. The
other members, having taken the
oath of office,organized bj electing
Mr. Hutcherson as chairman. 'The
Ordinary is, by the terms of the
law, ex-officio clerk of the Board.
No business was transacted at this
meeting. The Board met again
on the first Tuesday in October,
and, after auditing a number of
accounts and transacting such other
business as was brought before
them adjourned to the first Tues
day in November. We are inform
ed that, at that time the Board
will elect a member to fill the va
cancy caused by the non-acceptance
of Mr. Lovvorn.
The regular meetings of the
Board, as fixed by the act creating
it takes place on the first Tuesday in
every alternate month beginning
with January. If we are not mis
taken, the members will find that
first Tuesdays are not favorable
times for the transaction of their
business; that it will be inconve
nient to the people who so often
have other business to look after
on that day, and that it will great
ly conflict with the official duties
of the Ordinary.

The State of Ohio went repub
lican, in her general election on
j Tuesday. Foraker, republican, is
elected over Iloadly, democrat, G.
W. Winthrop, greenback, and Dr.
A. B. Leonard, prohibition, by a
plurality estimated from 15000 to
18000: The republicans will
have a majority on Joint ballot in
the legislature, and John Sherman
will be his own successor in the
United States senate* The falling
off in the democratic vote is attri
buted to the unpopularily of Mc-
Lean, it being understood that the
election of a democratic legislature
meant the election of McLean to
the U. S. senate. Besides there
are 30000 colored voters in Ohio.a
fact not generally known in the
south, and these all voted the re
publican ticket.
HARALSON CORRESPONDENCE.
’Wa.oo.
Editor Times:—ln my letter
last week was a mfr take that is cal
culated to do injury to a good
man and his property, as well as
our own market. It was this, “The
second bale cotton ginned by J. G.
Davenport on his new gin brought
8 1-16 cents in Waco.” It should
have been 9 1-16. It was the first
bale that brought over 9cts. I don’t
know whether it was mine o r the
printers’. Any how I hasten to
correct it.
Garrett and Steed have opened
a store in Waco.
Twenty two bales of cotton in
Waco last Saturday. Pretty good
for a place in the woods.
A company have bought a road
steamer between this place and
Bowdon. It is expected every day.
Messrs Thompson & Jones will
open a livery stable here soon.—
Waco will have two hotels before
christmas.
The schedule of the fast train
has been changed and now stops
at all stations. Leaves Waco at
5:04 am, arriving in Atlanta at 7.
Leaves Atlanta at 4:30 p m arrives

Carroll Superior Court.
Through the kindness of Mr.
W. B. Conyers, wh o is acting as
recording clerk, we arc enabled to
present the following summary of
the business disposed of in our Su.
prior court up to Wednsday m orn
ing Oct 14th, exclusive of contin
uances, motions and other interlo
cutory matters that necessarily take
up much time:
civil cases.
Judgement has been entered
or verdicts rendered in 20 civil
cases; dimissed, 5; withdrawn, J,
rules granted,l; divorces granted,3.
STATE CASES.
In these five defendants were
tried and found guilty and three

Nolle prosequi was entered in
the following cases: J. N. All

Royal Blood,
We are all kings and queens in
this country, and we have a right,
to as good blood as that which
courses through the veins of em
perors. If the blood is poor and
the cheeks are pale, it is well
known that Brown’s Iron Bitters is
the great tonic which will give
color, vigor, and vitality. Mr. M.
K. Gibson, of West Point, Miss.,
says, “1 felt weak and debilitated.
Brown’s Iron Bitters made me
| strong and well.
' OBITUARY.
Departed this life on thfr morn
ing of the Ist of Oct., 1885, Mrs.
W. E. Strong, in the 75th year of
her age. The deceased has been
a member of the Baptist church
about forty years, and truly may it
be said that “she adorned her pro
fession,” and in her last affliction
enjoyed the consolation of that hope
which had sustained herthroughlife.
Being on a visit to her son-in-law,
Mr. T. M. Chandler, of Carrollton,
when the hand of severe affliction
was laid upon her, she was unable
to return to her home in Newnan;
but intelligence soon reached her
children, who, though living in va
rious parts were soon gathered
around the sick bed of the devoted
mother, to minister to her as best
they could the few* days of the clos
ing life that was to them so dear.
“Why do we mourn departing friends
Or shake at death’s alarms,
’Tie but the voice that Jesus sends
To call them to his arms.”

Obituary.
Died, at his residence near Car
rollton Sept. 22nd 1885, Adkin
“Upshaw, aged 84 yrs. 5 months
and 3 days.
He was born in Virginia, April
19thl801. Moved to Georgia, in
1809. Joined the Primitive Baptist
Church at the age, 25. Lived a
consistent member till death.
In the dajs of his strength, he
had heard the preaching of Mosely,
Henderson and others who had so
successfully filled the pulpits of
Georgia and so forcibly taught the
doctrines of his Church.
Brought up under their teaching,
it is not a matter of wonder, that
he should have remained so firmly
fixed in bis faith. When Bro-
Upshaw joined the church by the
preaching of the Gospel wise men
were made wiser, and bad men were
made better. It was a time when
the world was forced to auknowb
ege the divine power of the Gos
pel.
In the latter part of hia life he,
especially, devoted himself to the
reading and study of the Bible.
It was his comfort in this life and
hope for the world to come. Quies
cat in Pace. A Friend
Smith.—James H. Smith was
born in the state of south Carolina,
May 21st, 1816, and departed this
life September 13th, 1885, aged 69
years, 3 months, and 8 days. The
subject of this notice was among
the best men of the earth, he was
a very consistant member of the
Christian church, and in his death
the church has lost one of its most
devoted and exemplary members,
his family a loving husband and
father, his brothers and sibters a
loving brother, his neighbors a kind
and accommodating neighbor. Al
though his sufferings were severe
and long, yet he never murmured
nor complained,but bore them with
Chiistian fortitude and often said
“bless the Lord Oh,my soul.” Just a
day or two before his.death he call
ed his wife and children to his bed
side and told them that his time to
stay on earth was short, but that
all was well with him and that
soon he would be done suffering
and w’ould be at rest. He then
called his grandson. Robert Smith
to him and said: “Oh, my grand
son I am dying, be a good boy and
trust in the Saviour and meet me
in Heaven.” He then took Robert
by the hand and said farewell. He
then addressed us all and said he
wanted to dje in peace with all
mankind Qijd waited us all to meet
in heaven, and bid us all &Feiyel)
and said, “Oh that I could die and
be at rest.” After he had made his
will he took hold of his brother
Daniel’s hand and addressed him,
saying: “My dear brother I will
soon be in eternity beyond flic
river of death in that land where
there are no more sorrow, paiting
nop death, but where all is joy and
peace, whore the saints will sing
forever,*’ To his aged companion 1
would say, as her departed husband
said, while she and his children
and friends stood weeping, weep
pot for him, but for yourselves,
all is B'ioll with him. Ripples.
