W o see from the Atlanta papers, that
Mr. V. P. Sisson has entered into co
partnership with Messrs. Miller, Ben
nett & Baily, in the conduct and
management of the Economical Job
Priuting Office of that city. The firm
will be known and distinguished, in
future, ns J. I. Miller, A Cos. We
have received several specimens of Jobs,
printed at this omce, during this year,
which we hesitate not to say, cannot
be surpassed, in neatness, taste or ex
ecution, by any job office in the State,
if in the South. Every member of
the firm has a knowledge of the print
ing business, and all the members of
the old firm are unrivalled as Job
Printers. Mr. Benj. F. Bennett, is
known to most, of our readers, having
been, for many years, prior to the war,
connected with the old Cassyieik
Standard, and at the opening of the
war associated with us in the publi- i
cation of this paper, (The Cartersville
Express.) We are proud to say that'
they are nil sober, steady and indus
trious gentlemen, and very superior
practical printers; and well-deserving
of patronage. We cheerfully recom
mend the Economical Job Printing
office, Atlanta, Ga., to the patronage
of our Merchant**, County officers, and
business meu generally. Any printing
which they may wish done, in elegant
style, left at this office, will be deliver
ed to them and returned by us, free
of charge , as fur as transportation is
concerned. We hope to see these
gentlemen prosper in their business,
which they are destined to do, judging
from the character of their work, and
its unprecedented cheapness.
Tkf Dropout. —Not in the observa

drought been severer thau at the pre -

of our wells of water are giving out,
branches drying up, and the whole face
of the country wears the appoaranoe of
an ash-bank. The pond of water in
this place, which has, fur many years,
supplied our stock, is nearly dried up.
The repeated whirlwinds that are wit

by old weather prophets, presages to
continued dry-weather. A lady stand

Comtiuin'ralPd,
Mr. Eorro t: Pie no all nv ui hum
ble citizen to make r. fcW suggestions
in regard to a matter of public inter
est; T allude to the Baptist Church
! rave}aid in this place, and especial
ly to the duties of t»nr town Commis
sioners in regal'd to it, With a full
consciousness that I 1 *.y myself liable
to being considered officious, by om
worthy town officials, and that they
arc wont to look upon any suggestions
coming from outsiders, as nnwarr mta-
Ule intermeddlings with their duties
and responsibilities, and consequently,
as entirely gratuitous and unworth;,
of their notice, 1 venture upon a fen
hiuts iu regard to tin;: important sub
ject.
I uni one of those, sir, who lock up ‘
ou town Commissioners as representa
tive persons, public servants, to whom i
i are entrusted the general interests ol •
i the incorporation. They exercise that j
j same diligence, discretion and fore
i sight in regard to the public interests
that an individual would iu regard to
j his own. They are amenable to then
constituents, the incorporators, and
should be held strictly accountable In
them for any failure to perform tilt
duties incumbent upon them. Hold
ing these general views, I approach
this subject, not in u spirit of captious
! fault-finding, or ns one 1m ting up
i matter of indictment against our town
* Commissioners, but with an honest de
; sire to promote the present, and future
welfare of the pi cc.
It is a fact admitted by every intel
ligent man in the place, not only that
i this grave-vard. iu its present locality,
;is a nuisance to the place, (being situ
! ated on the highest point in if, and
jnear its center,) but that there is im
minent danger that it may prove n
source of pestilence, at no very distent
day. We get our water here, entirely
i from wells, and the region around this
i grave-yard is fast settling up, and is
j destined, ere long, to be the most
thickly settled portion of the place.—
! Can any man, iu his senses, doubt
that the wells in the vicinity of this
hill, if they have not already become
| contaminated by the putrid matter
I from these graves, will iuevitaby be
c >me so in a short time, especially
wheu the number of graves shall have
doubled or thriabled and the wells
I also become more numerous ? He is
| li t’.e veried in the history of other pla
-1 ces similarly situated, and has but a
! faint idea of the centripetal force of
i fluids, who entertains such a doubt—
| There is scarcely a city or town of re
! spectable size within th< broad bound*'
of our country, which has not been
; compelled, at some period of its liisto
ton , to remove a grave-yard from its
niids'. I am prepared to admit that
a due respect for the bailed dead, auct
a disposition to beautify and adorn
the revered sepulcher* of departed
friends is one of the highest evidences
of civilization and Social refinement.—
' I would not have their sacred remains
j needlessly disturbed. But lam not
i prepared to admit that our respect for
; the dead should cause n.s to disregard
the interests of the living. I believe
that this grave yard should be remov
ed immediately. But lam met with
the objection that the Baptist Church
has vested rights in this matter, with
| which we cannot interfere. The Bap-
I tist Church ought not to cl dm, and
! cannot maintain rigids which are in di
! reefc conflict with the sanitary interests
!of the town. Simply because a very
i good old gentleman, actuated by
1 charity, gave the Baptist Church a
!spot of ground for buriil purposes,
| and his own revered remains repose
[ upon the spot, is no good reason why
j the sanitary int rests of a city should
be disregarded, : nd a large portion of
I its inhabitants, be exposed for till time
!to come, not only to a nuisance, but
!to the most loathsome form of pejli
! leutial filth that can be imagined.—
i Why, sir, the very idea of drinking wa
: ter but we refrain from following
j the sickening subject further, out of
! delicacy to those who live iu the vi
| ciuity of this hill. If old Mr. Malcomb ;
Johnston him sc If, could bo resurrec
j ted from his grave, aud allowed to ;
j ‘'peak, I do not doubt that he would
j vote for the removal of this cemetery
to a more appropriate spot. If we do
i cide that it ought to be removed, our :
j next enquiry is, "wheu and by whom
; should it be done ?” If it is ever re
moved now is the time. In the first j
I place,J it is a present nuisance. Sec
; ondly, it would cost much less now,
j than at any future tia-o. The cost of j
- removal will ho enhanced at a ratio,
| proportioned to the iacre iso in the j
j number of future interments. I sup
pose there are about 10;) bodies buried
i there at present. Say it would cost j
j $lO a piece to remove them now, ( this ,
I think a liberal allowance,) the whole j
cost would be SIOOO, saying nothing
. about the purchase of anew spo*. In
three or four years it would cost a !
much larger sum, and new difficulties i
would arise, such as the opposition
of the friends of the dead, Ac. Anew j
spot should be purchased about a mile
from the depot, containing 8 or 10
acres, and be enclosed as a public cem
etery; allowing private families to pttr-1
chase small sections fox family burials,
thereby raising money to pay the ex
i-j zi ciuh-iur,., Ac. Iho pr. : .-nt
'*emt*tery would make a beautiful and
commanding site for a school building,
town hull, or other public edifice, oi
could be sold and the proceeds appro
priated by the Bnpti t to help pay for!
their church, or, if they prefer it, to
•r-ct a monument to the memory of j
Malcomb Johnston,
Our next enquiry is, as to who shall
take this matter in hand. It is evi
dent that i o private person can, or will
lo it. The Baptist C lunch are not
Lkcly to take the initiative, by making !
a voluntary proposition for the romov
| ul. Then it follows as a matter of
! course that the town C. mmissioners,
who are the proper exponents of tlu
public sentiment and wants of thi
! town, the guardians of the public in
! forest of their constituents, and tin
| constituted agents of the citizens of
the place, whose right
and duty it is exclusively to attend to
; such things, should immediately take
■ this matter in hand, aud attend to it.
I Or, perhaps, as one of our town Com
! missionevs suggested to the writer oi
; . a
this article, some time since, when a
proposition was made iu regard to
some other public improvement, they
may think a public meeting should be
! called, and resolution* passed on the
subject! If such is the ease, wc are
getting to be a democratic town, in
deed! If this is necessary, we had
better dispense with our present town
council, all except the Marshal, buy
him a big bugle, and whenever it be-
I comes necessary to pars an ordinance,
levy a little fine, or impound a hog,
let him get out upon the house-tops,
and sound a few blasts with his bugle,
‘ »*.fter the manner of vuv butchers at
*
| the market place, and wc all can as
semble, and determine the matter lira
, voce. But if we have a counsel cl urg
ed with the execution of the public bu
siness, we think it their duty to at
tend to such things. If they are
i afraid of Die responsibility of making
an appropriation for this purpose, let
them give the people a chance to vote
upon the question us to whether this
i grr ve-vard shall be removed or not,
| and a sufficient amount of bonds is
sued to meet the expense. We’ll ven
j ture the assertion that there are not
twenty voters in the lace, that will
vote against it. They have the means
! ut their disposal, it is their duty to
, do so, and we do hope that they will
attend to this matter of gieut public
importance, soon.

i Editor Cartersyili.e Express —Dear
•Sir —Allow me the use of vour col
j umns to call the attention of the citi
j izens of our county to the approaching
; Fair of the State Agricultural Society,
1 in November next :
j The assemblage, cn that occasion,
; will, probably, be the largest and
j grandest that has ever met in Georgia,
: upon any occasion whatsoever. There
; will not be less than 20,000 Georgians
lou the Fair grounds, besides the very
large numbers from other States.
More than fifty of the present mem
bers of Congress have aim -dy accepted
invitations to be present on that oc
casion. The Superintendent of the
Western & Atlantic Railroad proposes,
to meet with a special train, at Lynch
burgh, such prominent Northern gen
i tlemsn as may accept our invitation.
I The Secretary of the Navy will furnish
; a steamer for the officials from Wash
| iugton to Savannah. The Central
I Railroad will give them a special train
to Macon.
Every variety of Northern Machin
ery, from a steam engine to a gimlet,
will be represented on the Fair
-1 grounds. The government has kindly
i allowed us the splendid Laboratory
building and grounds for our exhibit
, ion, near Macon. Trains will run
every few minutes from the city to
them. Gen, Wade Hampton, the
chevalier, ‘'/Minepene et nan'. >vj>roche,"
will deliver the address. The Poem
will be from the pen of M. J. Preston.
Henry Barnard will address the Teach
ers Convention, which meets in Macon
at the same time with the Agricultural
Society, and David A. A ells will speak
on taxation and labor.
On such an occasion, Georgia must
put forth all her powers and exhibit
all her resources, dormant and active.
We must ; how these strangers that j
which is really the case, that we are
irrepressible, that uo power but that
of Almighty God can keep us and )wn. —
That a State which can grow cotton,!
manufacture iron, and furnish bread
and meat enough to feed the opera- j
lives in both may be said, without ex
.aggeration, to be independent of the
rest of mankind.
Bartow county must bear a noble
share in exhibiting the wonderful re- (
sources of our noble State. We must i
ffiow our cotton, corn, wheat, fiiur,
oats, ryo, barley, hay, coal, iron, man
ganese, marble, lime, cements and live j
stocJi of all kinds. Wo must illustrate j
the point, that upon no one spot, has !
our Heavenly Father bestowed a larg
er affi ionce of His material powers,
thau upf/p uijr county.
The >*ork of preparation for this
auspicious aktcmWage should now be
gin. Live stock should be put into
condition. Persons, from our county,
who design attending the State Fair,
should, at an early period, report their
names to one of the members of the
Executive Committee of the countv
Society, in Cartersville. Messrs. Abda
Johnson, Peacock, an 1 Howard so
that delegation from the county Soci
ety maj be appointed.
It will be wise for neighbors to write
and provide a tent for their accommo
dation, on the ample grounds of the
Society, ns the crowd will be excessive.
Persons, desiring to become mcm
birs of the State Society, can do so In
. *
forwmdir:g their name* with the init
iation fee—two dollars—to me, at
Kingston. This will eiditle them to
: admission to the grounds and exhi
bition of any articles which they may
desire. C. W, Howard, Chm’n

We have thought for s vine time that
we would inquire of our readers why
it was that this splendid crop has been
so generally oveilooked by our farm
ers. We have no other idea but that
the neglect of this valuable grain has
arisen more from oversight and failure
to investigate, thau from prejudice. —
We do not now recollect ever to have
known an individual, who, after giving
barley a fair ti ial, relinquished its cul
tivation from disappointment in the
results. First, let us look at the profit.
An acre properly prepared for this
crop, will realize almost certainly fifty
bushel iof clean grain. This lias been
worth the past season, we believe,
from two dollars and a half to three
dollars o Thi; Peats colton.
Tin barley coming off very early in
May, is just in time for either a sweet
potato or late. Irish potato or corn crop.
From either of these, a second large
yield from the same land may be ex
pected We have never known any
stubble to seud off these crops like bar
ley stubble. Then this crop yields a
valuable straw for any purpose that
straw can be applied to, and the cash
for the grain comes in to anticipate
the returns from late summer and win
ter crops, a convenience of great mo
ment to small farmers. Besides this,
barley sown as it should be by the 15th
of the present month, furnishes for the
eow or the hog a most excellent win
ter pasture; and by the time green
food is most needed, your barley patch
lias a growth of eight or ten inches,
and would do best by grazing iu mod
eration. W ehave ou a trial test, in
friendly rivalry with a neighbor, made
winter butter on peas and green bar
lev that our friends insisted was color
ed artificial/!/. As green food for hogs,
barley is truly an admirably resource,
as we believe it is the only grain known
to our agriculture which will not some
times scour stock. We are aware that
it requires no niggardly preparation,
both in tilth and manure, to get an
acre of land ready to produce a credi
table crop of barley; but one such
acre is a gain of an acre of the best
low-land soil to the man that secures
it -a low-land acre with nearly all the
benefits and few of the drawbacks to
the bottom land. Then we repeat, for
quick profit -a large double crop —for
good winter pasture—for permanent
improvement to the soil and heavily
remunerating price, commend us to
the barley crop. The land should be
well and deeply broken, heavily ma
nured and seeded at the rate of 8 pecks
to the acre—certainly never less than
six pecks. We hope, as this article
will reach our suberibers iu time, that
some of them will make a venture ou
our recomeudation, and be prepared
bv next season to give the country the
benefit of their experience.—Exchange.

The present decliue in cottou is
j nothing more than was to have been
expected, from the extraordinary ra
i pidity with which the product has
, been thrown upon the market this sea
i son. Never before in the history of
; Georgia, and, we say, in the history
of cotton planting at the South, has
I cotton opened upon the stalks earlier
i or in greater abundance than it has
! this year, the causes for which have
| been frequently stated in these col-
I umus; and never before, we may add,
I have planters been stimulated more
j to hurry forward the crop than they
| havo been this season. During the
first two weeks after the market of the
j new crop opened here, middlings were
’ firm and in strong demand at thirty
! cents—something fancy readily com
; mantling thirty-one; but it was clear
to our mind, judging from the tenacity
with which the New York market
j stuck to thirty-five cents, during the
1 last month and for a portion of this,
: that when the price changed it was
certain to fall below those figures,
and that when the decline did com -
i menee it would be a most difficult
■ matter to tell where it would stop if
! cottou continued to pour in upon the
market as it has done.
Thus far the planter has suffered j
no material loss by the decline; and
; many of them having taken up their
warehouse acceptance, can now pro -I
| ceed leisurely with the gathering of
the remainder of their crops, and
j when the work is done, which will not
ibe long first, they can quietly fold
1 their arms over their safely stored cot
! ton bags and make money by waiting for
I the reaction, w hich is as sure to come ;
as that the price of an article is regu- 1
lated by the supply’ and demand.
In the cotton market here yesterday’, j
there seemed to be almost a panic
among planters, and they rushed their
cotton upon the market recklessly.—
Such action on their part will l>e re
gretted before the season closes, we
fear; for it tends to force down the
| price whether it wanks to fall or not, j
! and it is really playing into the hands
qf che bears-o# New York. If all the
planters would'hold their cotton now
for about ten days—not one or two of
them, but all—the present decline
would be checked, at and at the end of
time we should have an ad
vance upon present price v, whereas,
if tat) staple is rushed upon the tnr
ket for another wet k or ten days as it
has been, it will not surprise us to se _>
prices full to 20 in Macon. Look to
your interests, planters and don't be
come excited. We assure you that
you have the inside track on the bears
this season, if you will exercise proper
judgment and discretion in holding on
to your cotton. Part with it only to
protect your credit and honor, and for
nothing else; but do not, we entreat
you, rush it pell-mell upon a declining
market, to your own detriment aud
the injury of the country.—Macon

Negro Lab in Contention. —We ob
serve that Jeff Long, the negro Radi
cal leader at Macon, has issued a call
in which he says:
“In view of the prospect of a large
influx of foreign immigration to the
State of Georgia, aud tho correspond
ing advance in the value of real estate
of every kind and character, conse
quent upon an increase of population,
coupled with the necessity of a thor

Literature in the South.
All Southern men and women with
the proper feelings of self-respect,
! should be deeply interested in the es
; forts which are now being made
| throughout the South to develop her
native literature talent, and to build
up a literature, through which her
! past history shall be vindicated from
] all the obloquy which is being heaped
upon it, and whereby Southern thought
; and Soushern civilization shall be ade
| quately represented in the arena of
the modern world. But strange as it
may appear, there prevail a reinarka-
I ble apathy and indifference on the
I part of the great mass of the popula
j tion to all literary projects, which can
scarcely be accounted for on grounds
creditable to Southern character.—
The editors of the South, as a body,
i have perhaps done what they could to
i dispel this indifference, and to arouse
j the people to the imperative necessity
of fostering native enterprise, if they
wish to preserve inviolate the sacred
honor of their dead, and to bequeath
a heritage of liberty to their children.
The New Eclectic Magazine which
has now been in existence for three

stands at the head of the list of South

the yet r, when persons are in the hab
it of choosing their periodicals for the
winter, it is especially requested of the
Public that they bestow a part at least
of their patronage upon a periodical
published in their interest, and which,
the Southern and the Northern press
both being the judges, is the peer of
any magazine published in America—
both in its literary standards and the
quality and attractiveness of its ty- i
pography.
