In fact, tak ing into consideration the size of tlie Cemetery, there should be at least two walls out there for the convenience of drinking, a’d also for procuring water for the flowers and shrubbery. The Cemetery is visited a great deal an.l it is but right not only to orna-! meat the grounds and beautify them as far as the means will justify, but we also think a house of some kind should be erected upon the grounds for the purpose of resting in, and to protect persons who may be caught out there in bad or wot weather.

An Interesting Case. —Yesterday, an interesting case camo up for a hearing, before Justice Thomas Spencer, The case came up on an affidavit of illegality to stop the sale of property under a judgment obtained in 1858. Col. A. W.

T. P. Westmoreland maintained very lucidly and pointedly that the various enactments, suspending tho Statute of Limitations, brought the judgment in: That tho Statutes of Limitation were suspended from 1881 until July 1808, and the intervening time between those two dates could not be counted. The Court sustained the affidavit of illegality, and dismissed tho levy. 'The oaso will be carried up to the Superior Court, Both lawyers made able efforts. Yt. Constitution. A Very Valuable Hook.

It stands alone and unapproachable in its speciality; all that could be desired, in the way of his history, comment, and illustration, re lating to the vital subject of which it treats; great learning and power and beauty of style, do not constitute its highest praise. This is found in its moral and religious spirit, itspre-em incut Christian candor and impartial!- i v. in its solemn earnestness for histor ic truth, its manly and unvasciliating faith iu the doctrines proclaimed by the fearless) guLit*'*' •* Vography, afi com i'-.ling to make it one the grand est monuments of sanctified intellect and learning ever reared to the honor of Sacred Truth. Never have we seen such an array of great names, giving their unqualified commendations of a book, as we find in the nblisbcr’s circular; names of men w hose self-respect and personal character and position, make them ex ceedingly chary liow they indorse any thing that does not come up to a high standard of exee lence, or that, docs not meet their hearty approval. Tlie reprint will be more highly prized than any other, as it is the only Complete Edition published in this country with translated notes. It lias in addition an able and ex ceedingly valuable dissertation by Dr. Leonard Bacon, the eminent Professor of Theology in Yale College, preparing the reader fir the graphic account of the great Apostle.

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. PUBLIUS. Agricultural Fair for(hvClser* oS»ce (,'oiinlry oftia- ami Ala. in Koine. In accordance with previous notice, a goodly number of planters of North Georgia and Alabama, representing some eight or ten counties, assembled in the City Hall, in Rome, on Thurs day, the 21 th inst., for the purpose of inaugurating an Agricultural Fair for that section known as the Cherokee country, and embracing the counties of North Georgia and Alabama.

Any dealer in leaf tobacco, who shall refuse to keep such book, shall be lia ble to a penalty of not less than five hundred dollars, and on conviction thereof, shall be not less than one hundred dollars, nor more than five thousand dollars and imprisoned not less than six months nor more than two years. 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. L. Hogshead. 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.
