COMM LATCA iT3.
CARTE RSYILLE—THE DUTY OF
IDS CITIZENS.
Am. Editor:—l desire a Ain all space
m x oui columns, this week, to call tlie
attention of the citizens of Cartersville
to a matter which ii calculated to have
a very important bearing, upon the
prospects of this place, especially ns
regards its future growth and develop
ment. I understand that a uropogit
ioii has been made to our town Coun
cil, to purch ase about one hundred
acres of land, lying in the Southern
part of the incorporation, formerly be
longing to the Leak estate, but row
owned by Mr. Solomon, of Atlanta,
and Col. Gibbons. It is in regard to
the advantages which would most cer
tainly accrue to the pi; ee, from this
purchase, and the entire safety c£ the
investment, that I desire to direct the
attention of our citizens.
It is well known that the last Legis
lature passed an Act, which has recent
ly been signed by the Governor, giving
our town Commissioners the privilege
of issuing $25,000 worth of bonds, to
run ten years, which can be invested
only by a vote of a majority of the vo
ters of the town. lam reliably inform
ed that capitalists, in Atlanta, have ex
pressed a willingness to purchase all
the bonds to be issued under this
at lieai-D a par value ill currency, and
I do ggt doubt but that they may be
sold at par. The one hundred acres of
land in question, lies beautifully for
building purposes, all in a solid body,
close to the business part of the town,
and can be bought for about SIO,OOO,
or SIOO per acre. Let us now consid
er what would be some of the advanta
ges of the purchase proposed. But
before discs ssing particularly these ad
vantages, it would be well to note oik
or two of the chief obstacles in the way
of building up towns, generally, and
which, to a considerable' extent, effect
this town at this time. One, and the
principle of these obstacles, is the dif
ficulty of purchasing real estate, with
in and adjacent to the incorporation, at
reasonable prices. Asew r individuals
who, either happen to own most of the
lands, or are full handed enough to
buy them up, hold town lots at such
exhorbitant prices as pre\ ents, to a
great extent, the building up of the
pla *o. If the place should, by force of
circumstances, flourish and grow' in
spite of the greedy nropensities of this
class of landed proprietors, they rise in
their prices for town lots in proportion
—or I should rather say, out of pro
portion—to the prospects of the place
for improvement. In this way they
dwarf the growth of the place, and to
a great extent, prevent from settling
within its limits a class of population
most important of all others, to its
growth and prosperity. I allude to
the working class, mechanics and day
laborers, who furnish the bone and
muscle, and are, in fact, the life-giving
element of every flourishing city or
town. Ido not wish to be under-
stood sir, in stating the above general
proposition, to bring tlie sweeping
charge of exhorbitancy against fill the
landed proprietors in and around Car
tersville. On the contrary, there are
honorable and commendable exceptions*
whom it w ould afford me great pleas'
lire to name individually, if it would
not subject me to the charge of being
personal. However, named or unnarn
| ed, Cartersville knows them, and I
t doubt not that she will acknowledge
i in due season, and in appropriate ways,
! that it is mainly to their enlarged views
! and liberal course of conduct, that she
J owes her present flourishing condition
and bright prospects.
The second, and last general obsta
cle which I shall mention, is the leant
of imblic spirit. It is almost sure to
happen, in anew place, such as ours,
which has bright prospects of rapid
rise, that the citizens, in their scram
ble after individual gain, and personal
advantages, lose sight of the public in
terests, and arc slow to embark in en
terprises which have for their sole ob
ject the general improvement of the
place, but which are of such a charac
ter that they cannot be undertaken or
successfully prosecuted, except by the
hearty cooperation of all the citizens.
The causes which induce this state of
things are obvious. The rapid en
hancement of property engenders a
spirit of speculation, which imparts to
capital a ficticious, or unnatural im
portance. Under these circumstances,
men are loath to withdraw their capital
from private enterprises and engage in
those which do not lie directly in the
channel of their individual plans and
projects, the advantages of which, the
whole community would share in com
mon with them,selves, notwithstanding
their ultimate individual gains might
be larger from these lattci’, than from
those first mentioned.
Tlie wise and generous enactment of
the Legislature has virtually obviated
I the difficulties above named, as far as
they eject us, and it only remains for
the people of Cartersville to avail them
selves of the advantages afforded, to
secure the itpid growth of the place
-and to build up, as if by magic, a man
ufiicturing nutl commercial town, sec
ond to none in the South in point of
, importance and thrift. Let our com*
ini.s-ioi.f r- Usue ten or twelve thousand
dollars of bonds, to run for ten years,
and purchase the body of land in
que. 'ion, (nearly every acre of which
lies well for improvement,) and lay it
otV into lots <f about one acre each,
and sell every other lot to actual set
tlers, at cost, giving l them, if desired,
one, two, three, or four years to pay
for them, with interest at 7 per cent,
per annum. Titles should be reserv
ed until tlie last payment, and cacli
purchaser should be required to im
prove his lot. This wot 11 induce the
settling up of the place with asuhstan
t a! population of laborers and mechan
ics. and so enhance the value of the re
servt J lots as to secure to the town a
arge profit in a space of time, j
The reserved lots alone would be j
amply sufficient to pay off the bonds '
long before their maturity, so that the j
proceeds of those sold might be appro
priated, as collected, to other public
improvements, such as a good market
house, for instance, which is and will
be badly needed until built. This
course would inevitably lesson our taxes
in the future, increase our population,
open up a larger tutu ket for groceries
and goods, build lip manufactories,
fester the mechanic arts, and redown
to the prosperity of the place in almost
every imaginable way, with little or no
risk.

I Sleepejo Together —The laws of
Life says “more quarrels occur bet wen
brothers, between sis ten, between ap
prentices in machine shops, between
hired men, between husbands and
wives, owing to electrical changes
through which their nervous systems
go, by lodging night after night under
the same bed clothes, than by almost
any other disturbing cause. There is
nothing that w ill so derange the nerves
of a person who is eliminative in nerv
ous force us to he all night iu bed with
another person who ia absorbent in
nervous force. The absorber will go
to sleep and rest all night, while th e
eliminator will tumble and toss, restless j
and nervous, and wake up in the!
morning fretful, peevish, fault-finding i
and discouraged. No two. persons, no ■
j utter who they are, should habitual
ly sleep together. One will thrive, the
other will lose. This is the law, and
yet in all married life we run counter
to it. Hence so many nci vous, fretful,
sick women, who are ever on the grunt
and under medical treatment. The
Patriacb.fi of old slept from their wives,”
which doubtless accounts for their be
coming Patriarchs.
JSSF* At the late meeting of our
Presbytery, when the subject of scrip
ture was under discussion, Brother W.
said early iu his ministry he and that
brother were conducting a meeting in
which there was much religious inter
e.st. And old man gave expression to
his joy by shouting, and continued
until it began to interrupt the services.
Brother H. said to Brother W., “Go,
stop that old man’s noise.” He went
to him and spoke a few words, and
the shouting man at once became qui
et. Brother W. asked brother H.
“What did you say to the old man
that quieted him so promptly?”—
Brother H. replied, “/ nuked him for a
dollar for foreign missions.” —Rev. A.

Lucid Direction.—“ Can you tell me
the road to Greenville ?” asked a trav
eler of a boy whom he met on the
road.
“Yes, sir,” replied the boy, “do you
see the barn down there ?”
“Yes,” said he.
“Go to that. About three hundred
yards beyond the barn you will find a
lane, and follow along about a mile
and a half, then you will come tq a
slippery elm log, you be mighty keer
ful, stranger, about going on that log,
and then you go on till you get to the
brow of the hill, and there the roads
prevaricate, and you take the left
hand road, and keep that until you
get into a thicket; and when you get
there, why, then, why then, —”
“What then ?”
“Then I’ll be durned if you aint
lost.” ___ _ _
The Yankees and the Beau. —Two
yankees strolling in the woods, with
out any aims in their possession, ob
served a bear climbing a tree, with its
paws clasped around its trunk. One
of them ran forward and caught the
bear’s paws, one in each hand. He
then called out to his comrade: “Jona
than, run home, and bring me some
thing to kill the varmint, mind you
don’t stay, or I am in a fix.”
Jonathan ran off, but staid a long
time. During the interval the bear
made several attempts to bite him who
held it. At length Jonathan camo
back.
“Hello, what ke L t you so long ?”
“Well, I’ll tell you. When I got
home breakfast was ready, so I stopped
to eat it.”
“Well,” said his comrade, “come you
now, and hold the critter vhile I kill
it.”
Jonathan seized the bear’s paws and
held the animal.
“Well, have you hold of him?”
“I guess I have.”
“Very well, then, hold fast; I’m off’
for dinner!”
Have you got one of Gower, Jones
& Co’s wagons, if not, go and get one,
they run lighter and last longer than
any body’s wagons. Mr. Gower sets
all the axles himself and makes them
run like a carriage. They are better
suited to this country than any wagon
made.
An impudent lawyer of New York
meeting a soldier with very full whis
kers, said, “I say, my dear fellow, when
are you going to put your beard on a
peace footing ?”—“not until you place
your tongue on the civil list,” was the
retort.
