CARTEKBVILI.E, <3A., MAY 24th. 1870
Ovn MfcNFY Ajtairi Our esteemed
eotempoivry, tile “intelligencer,” ft
few weeks sinee, risked information ns
to the plethora of money in Ne\Y York,
at a low rate of interest, 4 to 5 per
cent., nnd its great scarcity in Atlanta
and Georgia, it being almost impossi
ble to obtain it on any term-*. \Ye
have waived anxiously, to two if any
one woitl l reply, but n> one has. Is
it possible tint the question is unan
s .ver d)lc ? Canu >t the press, at least
in the money centre* of tho Empire-
State, solve the problem? As the
press in Atlanta is dumb on the sub
ject. might not a solution of the fact be
attempted at Savannah and Augusta?
or, at Macon. Columbus or Athens?
Is the jrress of the State afrai.l lo es
say it ? is it afraid of the Legislature
or the people ? It .would be unkind to
Ray it did not know the causes; ah!
it knows them well, aud evinced its
mature knowledge of the subject re
cently in Convention, when it adopted
the cash system —ah ! that’s it—the
cash system —ah ! that’s it! Why?
Be cause people arc afraid to credit'one
another. Just so. This is the answer:
afraid to credit each other ! now, you
l ave the answer, brother lutelligeueer.
Why are they afraid to eredit ? Put
that shrewd banker on the stand, aud
then ask hiiu! Hi.s reply will be,
‘‘There are no collecting laws in our
State at present, and if so, the amount
of exempted properly, in gold valua
tion, is so lai'f/e that the Hiwnestead
law would cover uinctenths of till the
prop rty in the State, and hence, if I
loaned mv money on personal ; ecurity,
an 1 sli mid sue for it, I should simply
lose it, Put up a merchant—question
him. Why arp you so cautions of
selling your goods on credit ? Before
the vvar you sold these gentlemen all
the goods they needed or time— why
not i*o« .* “tiec.iu.se, sir. 1 —t; —h c
m I am afraid of the Homestead
lftw; I coithl iromerly sue and get my
money, but I cannot- now -I feel the
force of the Let that all 1 w i recently
ruacte.d. are opposed to the capital of
the State, and in favor o f the non
payment of honest debts!”
Question 21—“As our object is to
elieit facta just as they exist, pardon us
if we ask von how h ve you disposed
of the proceeds of the 500 bales of cot
tou which yon luckily saved during the
\\:ir, aud the proceeds of the land you
recently sold, which you purchased
with Confederate money, during the
war? ’
A. “L am loath to lay my private uf
f iirs before the world, but if iny an
swer will subserve a good purpose, I
will answe. you.”
Q. “Tim k you; wc are desirous of
knowing the causes that bear upon the
scarcity of money in our State/’
Merchant—l sold my cotton for
$7. >OOO,OO, and my lands fur $50,000,
making $125,000. Fifty thousand of
this amount, I invested in United States
bonds, and $25,000 in merchandise,
und as I do not credit, I find it quite
capital sufficient far my business, us I
hell for cash, and buy for cash.”
Q. “How and i you dispose of the re
maining SSOIOOO ?’’
A. ‘ Partly in bonds of Kentucky
and other solvent Stutes. and a por
tion of it is held by mv banker in New
Y <rk.”
Q. -What and > you and > with your accu
mulated interest?”
V. * Place it in my bank- l’s hands
in New York to check against.”
Q. “Does he allow you any intere.t
on vour deposit t”
A. “Yes, sir, he gives me 4 per cent,
per annum.”
Q. “A low rate of interest to-be
sure ! Could you not get more in
Georgia ?”
A. “Yes, sir, the promise of more,
even 24 per cent, per annum! but I
am afraid to use it, and will not, until
the amount allowed the Homestead
law is lessened, and collection laws re
established. r-
Q. “If wiiojesorne 1 iws should be re
established in this State, 1 joking to
the rights ami protection of capital,
would \on call back your funds and
use them for the purpose of iuves'ing
in Banking aud loaning to farmers,
and mechanics ?’’
A. “ IVs, it oner, and for the pur
pose of assisting honest young men, in
Romo more profitable business, for I
had rather have all my means at home,
if I could use them safely, under u
good law, which would not brand me.
as a villain, if I should, at any time,
desire to collect my means.”
Q. “What do you mean Ivy being
branded ?”
A. “It iw one of the bad features of
the tim°s that capitalist, are denounc
ed if, after kindl v loaning their money,
it should b called for again, and even
tin LAg ; and itors are in the habit of
abusin' those who bars luge sums

Mr. Epitob. -I too, wont to the Pic
Nic nr W.dmr ( r v», 1 as I h .*»
you her I have been looking trepee
| taniiv forh-be is-n <.;f yotir paper., to
see What you hau to sr.y abon it* I
did not have much hope, bat I thought
in ay be you would mention my name
in the account.
If I had known of your magnificent
start from Carters villa, and how you
were enthused by the gay surround
ings, I woul 1 not have thought of such
a thing. Whit a time you must have
had. being ono amongst the throng
of beautiful ladies, gallant i cn, splen
did coaches, whistling engines, esteem,
ed friends, and Dr. Layman, and Co
nant A' Cos., and contractors, and C‘ &
V. W. li. R, and Foster Blodgett, and
a colonel, and a Superintendent, and
a W. *k A. R. R., and a John W. Lew
is, and a revered community, and an
engineer, and Georgo Washington, and
Mr. Lee, and another colonel, and an
other Superintendent, and Mr. W. W.
White, and another colonel, and anoth
er engineer, and a conductor, and a
captain, and a Mr. Wiley, and old
Stonewall; all armed with a cap and
a pic, and tne whole crowd, naturally
confused by the sweet swelling notes
of a Confed Brass Band. Oh! it must
have been glorious.
But you did come very near men
tioning me, for you said that when tho
train “disgorg' and” you, at the appoint
ed place, “you met some friends from
the rural districts.” Well, Mr. Editor,
I was one of them. I did not come
texted in a magnificent car, drawn by
a splendid engine, nor feel the majes
tic motion ns the train rolled off, tkr’gh
sweet scented fields, by murmuring riv
ulets; but I came in a one-horse vehic
le, through a series of dusty lanes,
flanked by thirsty fields, and medita
ting as I rode whether the poor little
cotton plants that I saw, with two
leaves as big as five cent pieces, would
pay for the guano that went under it;
and let me scy right here, Mr. Editor,
before I forget it, that the reason the
bugs are troubling the poor little cot
ton plant, is that tbey-go there because
they smell something good, and as they
•re not able to get to the highly flavor
ed compound, they eat what is next
best —the weed that grows out of it.—
But to return to the subject. I was
! approaching the foot of the wouutain,
j the place c f rendezvous. Everything
: was quiet. I saw no sigu of travel on
the Burnt Hickory road. Could I have
been mistaken in the dir; ? Only ft
small strip of woods yet to pass thr,gh
and all still and quiet. Old Charley,
not knowing where he was going, and
thinking I did not either, had corce
; down to a slow walk, when suddenly I
was halted by a picket guard of festive
i youths, taken from my vehicle and the
| countersign demanded. The only
i arms I had was a s nail phial of spirits
and a boquet. I drew the former up
: on them, and they concluded to let me
j pass.
As I emerged from the woods, a
scene burst upon me, which made ine
! feel glad that I had como. I will not
! attempt to describe Walnut Grove.—
You. Mr. Editor, have already done
; that, in a chaste, elegant and truth
; ful style. The towering mountain, the
! rippling creek, the ’evel grass plat, the
| old field school house, the oak and
' walnut trees, were all there. But it
! was none of these things that burst up
on my enraptured view. I have truv
: elh and about in the woods too long to be
j taken in by ‘sich’. I always associate
1 creeks in summer time, with snakes;
nud as for mountains, I only admire
i them when ‘d.stance’ lends enchant
ment to the view. But it was the peo
ple I saw there; oh ! how I love the
! people when they are in the shape of
i young li-ui is! j here they w re, the
; issembled beauty of the District, sport
ing upon the green sward with all the
agility and playfulness o f young
lambs, barring the innocence. I want
el t > see it all, so I wandered around
and visited the groups of married men,
and noble matrons. I tried to oecome
interested in the games of the children;
i but my thoughts would goba -k to my
first love, and I found myself again at
; 'hose central walnut trees, where the
gam .- of base was going on. Oh ! want
it fine to see those skirts, and curls,
! mil tilings, flying around with perfect
i abandon, and to have ocular demon
stration that our girls were not made
up things, but real aud genuine; that
even when the powder und fixings were
shaken or floated off, they looked bet
ter than ever. I can't describe the
game. It was one of catching, and
holding and carrying, mixed up with
running, laughing and falling. I want
ed to join in powerfully, but I was
; strong and ark ward, un 1 as modesty
: is my weakness, 1 was afraid I’d catch
i 'em wrong.
The dinner, Mr. Editor, you have
! and scribed with your usual gusto and
; pathos. In tact, sir, when writing
about or practicing gaatmuomy, yon
beco ue eloquent. Didn’t some of the
| men hide the victuals ? Looking at it
from a scientific stand-point, the ques
tion is, where did they put ’em ? The
only way to account for it, is to believe
that some animals, b. sides the usual
digestive organs, are possessed with a
little double-geared compressing ma
chine. One little man ate so much
that it reminded me of the Irishman’s
pig. He swore he carried it a bucket
full of slops, and the dear little thing
ate it up, to tho last drop. He then
took it up by the tail, and put it into
the bucket, and faith, the little baste
didn’t half fill it-
Oar ladies, too, did ample justice to
the good things. That’s right ladies,
never mimic for effect. Who would
want a wife who could be satisfied with
a pickle and cracker for dinner; with
half of a syllabub for desert? A give
without a stomach is not worth a blue
bean. A great deal has bteii written
by j oeta about the* Heart Tile* fath
ers of poetry Wrote, before Physiolo
! gy was well uudorisMod and they igno
: raidly gave fhs hwtft the preeminence,
| and mode it the scut of the affections.
Now this is a great mistake. The
j heart is a tough, nerveless muscle, des
j titute of sensibility, and its office is to
pump blood all through tho system,
without a moment’s rest, from birth
to death. What time has it for ro
mance ?
The stomach, on the other hand, is
' acted ou by powerful and delicate
nerves, and has its time for action, and
its time for rest. The Bible says: ‘the
Heart is deceitful above all things, and
desperately wicked; but makes the
stomach the seat of Pity, Kindness,
Tenderness and Compassion. An in
dividual with hi.s heart out of order,
may love, and love hard; but who ever
heard of one of either sex, indulging
in sentiment, when they were sick at
the stomach? Clasping your lady-love
to your heart, is suggestive of imped
ed circulation; but pressing her to your
But, Mr. Editor, in my zeal
for our favorite organ, I find myself
wandering from the subject, which was
est ting, I believe.
Everybody, they tell me, had a good
dinner; but I knoiv where I was, it was
first rate. Following the example of
the correspondent of the Constitution,
I will only make honorable mention ui
those who fed me, and everybody will
then know that I was well taken care
of, for once. William Rowland fur

Mr. Editor, I found a good place?
The Pic Fie at Walnut Grove was p.
success. All the assembly were com
posed of high toned gentlemen, except
the women and children. The young
ladies, bless their sweet souls; any one
of them would have been a belle in any
other crowd.
Pic 2 ics are good institutions. They
have nullifying effect upon the rough
edges of mankind generally. I have
not sai i a cross thing about folks since
the 12th; and everybody I met at ths
Grove, I like a little better than I did
before. Use your influence, Mr. Edi
tor, to have some more of them. We
might as well have some innocent fun,
for none of ns will make anything
this year, if the farmers do make any
cotton at all, it will all go to take up
guano notes, and the merchants who
are green enough to sell on a credit,
will have to wait until always. The
best people go to Pic Nics. Among
the crowd assembled on that memora
ble occasion, I saw two of the strictest
and most untiring business men in
Cartersvilie, in their ditiereut avoca
tions, viz: John Erwin, and John W.
Wofford. They looked as pleased and
innocent as it th y had both been born
in a Grove, right by a turtle dove’s
nest. They well know that all work
and no play makes Jack a dull boy.
I saw* too, my esteemed old freiud
Mr. Compton, gallanting in a tende:
manner, a very charming lady; well, 1
thought, who knows but wimt there is
hope for him yet? But later in the
day, I saw him alone, at the root of
a tree, with paper and pencil, making
a calculation. I then lost all hope -

Stand by tiik Local Paper.— What
tells ut the standard of a city or town
as the appearance of its paper? And
its use or age can be as well defined

Your interests are kindred and equal,
and you must rise and fall together.—
Therefore it is to your interest to sup

and preacher uiobbing.in Blount county
on the morning of the Bth inst:
Sunday morning at ten and a half
o’clock a mob of about forty Radical
ruffians, black and white assembled at j
Logan’s Chapel, six tidies east of Mu- j
ryville, in Blount county, armed with
knives and pistols and bludgeons, for
the purjxise of mobbing Rev. H. W.!
Bays, a preacher of the Methodist E
piscop.il Church South having charge j
of Seveirviiie and Little River circuit j
of the Holstou Conference.
The ruffians barricaded the doors
and windows of the church with the
benches, and awaited Mr. Bay’s arriv
al in front of the church in a l uggy,
in which were Alexander Kennedy, "r.
his daughter, and Mr. Bays and his
wife. The crowd seized the horses,
and Wm. Goddard, the leader cf the
ruffiiaus, brandishing a huge bludgeon,
swore that they would kill Mr. Bays if j
be alighted from the buggy. The I
crowd brandished their knives and !
yelled and whooped, making a horri-!
bic racket, and ffigteuing the ladies in-,
to screaming.
Mr. Bays attempted to re*ason with
the mob, but it was useless. They
answered him with curses aud threats.
Finding that the danger was imminent
and that delay might cost him his life,
Mr. Bays requested Mr. Kennedy to j
drive off and they left the sceme amid j

Ayer’s
Hair Vigor,
For restoring Gray Hair to
its natural Vitality and Color.
4 is at onoe agreeable,
healthy, and effectual
for preserving the
hair. Faded or gray
hair is soon restored
to its original color,
with the gloss and,
Thin hair is thick
ened, falling hair checked, and bald
ness often, though not always, cured
by its use. Nothing can restore the
hair where the follicles are destroyed,
or the glands atrophied and decayed.
But such as remain can be saved for
usefulness by this application. Instead
of fouling the hair with a nasty sedi
ment, it will keep it clean and vigorous.
Its occasional use will prevent the hair
from turning gray or falling off, and
consequently prevent baldness. Free
from those deleterious substances which
make some preparations dangerous, and
injurious to tho hair, the Vigor can
only benefit but not harm it. If wanted
merely for a
HAIR DRESSING,
nothing else can be found so desirable. I
Containing neither oil nor dye, it does
not soil white cambric, and yet lasts
long on the hair, giviug it a rich, glossy
lustre and a grateful perfume.
