!iS i 111* Hi \U lUA.I lIISODr JLXUL. Bili ,/KRRVILLE, GA., JAN. 4, 1872. ] jSmF Rerding matter on page Cur Paper.—A greenl yto prom . ise we greet our reader*, In the begin ning of this (anew) year, with a pa yer greatly enlarged, in new dress, ami otherw(aptniprov<>fk The Stan l nni & Exp i«m is now one of the larg est and handsomest country weekly papm published in the State, with a fide circulation of TWELVE HUNDRED SUBSCRIBERS, and daily increasing. Our community and section is worthy of a good paper, and it is our determination to give them such an one. All our energies, mental and physical, will be fully and freely exj>ended in the accom plishment of this end. We respect fully ask our patrons to do their duty by us. This must Is? done or we, as publishers and patrons, must sepa rate. We send out this number of our paj)er to all our subscribers in or der that they may understand what we propose to give them for TWO DOLLARS A YEAR. Those of our subscribers whose time of pay ment has expired, and who wish the weekly visits of the St 'rHard &■ Ex press to be continued during the pre sent year, or any portion of it, had better renew their subscription at once, or necessity will compel us to drop their name's from our list. Our terms are CASH IN ADVANCE. Notice to Subscribers. —All sub scril>ers whose time has expired for which they have paid for the Stan dard & Ex press, will find a cross mark with a i>encil on the same. Ts tltey fail to renew their sulweription ut once, their names will Ik? dropped from our list. Look out for the cross mark and act accordingly. Tiie Old and New Year.—The old year with its sorrows and joys, its mis-spent moments and misap plied energies, its unheeded admoni tions and warnings and slighted op portunities, its precious hours of sun shine dark days of storm and tempest, its cherished anticipations and sad recollections, its adventures, its perils, and its misfortunes, has passed away forever, and now fills its page in the history of the past. We have entered upon anew year. What of like joys and sorrows will fall to our lot during its progress, is in the womb of the unrevealed future; but much of either, or both, hinge upon the course of conduct we shape out as tlie rule of our life. The “path of du ty is the only path of safety,” there fore let us, one and all, strike out on this line, for we art; divinely assured that the way of duty is the way of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace. Beautigvl Scenery.— After an absence of about three years, we paid a flying visit, one day last week, to the old Etowah Iron Works. These works are six miles above Cartersville on the Etowah River, where the riv er passes through the mountains.— The mountain scenery on either hand is almost unsurpassingly grand and picturesque, and reminded us forcibly °f the sublime sterreoscopie scenery of the Hudson, Niagara, and the Cat skills, and we wished that an artist had been with us with his camera, that he might paint these natural Cur the wYTfhl-Iff Took upon and admire. Every time we view thorn they present additional attrac tions. It will amply repay any one fond of landscape scemr y** to take a trip up this river for a few miles. A company, we learn, has been or ganized *in this county who are going into the pitch and turpentine busi si new, between this place and Euliar lee. There is a fine belt of pine tim ber running across the county, and extending within two miles west of Carters ville. We were invited to a Christmas Tree party at the hotel of Mr. J. C. Martin, in Adairsvillc, Ca., on Christ mas night. Owing to providential causes we were unable ta attend, but understand that they had a jolly time anti everybody was well pleesed.— We return our warmest thanks to Mr. A Mrs. J. C. Martin for kindly * Temembering us by sending us a box full of dainties and delicacies so hand somely and tastefully served up for the occasion. It is very gratifying to know that, though absent, we were not forgotten. It is with feelings of deep sorrow that we see announced in the Colum bus j Enquirer of Saturday last, the death of George M. Renfroe, an old and highly respectable citizen of that city. He has been, since the war, a carriage dealer in Columbus, Ga.— He leaves a truly devoted wife and an interesting and affectionate daugh ter to mourn his death. Cassville was attached to the King ston Circuit, at the late session of the North Georgia Conference, and Shi loh was thrown back into the Cal houn Circuit. The Bartow Circuit is yet to be supplied with a pastor. In looking over our exchange we find them full of murders, homicides, manslaughters, serious and fatal acci dents, bacchanalian riots and revelries all over this Christian land, while cel ebrating the anniversary of the ad vent of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ into the world. Shame upon a nation of people claiming to be the followers of the meek and lowly Je sus. This is Leap Year. Young ladies bear this in mind, and exercise the privilege it vouchsafes to your sex, and dont let its close catch you on the retired list for life. Con. Acton.—We called at the new picture gallery on Wednesday evening of last week, and had the pleasure of a short interview with Col. Acton, the phat, phacetious boy of the Constitution. His proportions are as FalsUtffian as ever, and he still seems to be laughing and growing fat. He was sitting for his picture, and said that fourteen of the prettiest girls in Catfersville had called on him for one apiece, and he was having them taken just for their gratification. Christmas day was bright and fair, and we saw many faces that were as bright and Mr as that spring-like day. Old Santa-Claus had travelled round promiscuously, and had made many of the little folks happy. We were almost inclined to wish we were a boy so ihat we might enjoy feast* on sugar-plums and the like. \J u 'jK e Erskine sentenced McLaugh bS,Y«s Atlanta (Ga.) Poet Office em aervL** to pay a fine of $6,058 and * «*ree years in the penitentiary. Conley, proceeding under the 4th section of an act of the Legis lature entitled an “ Act to loan the credit of the State to the Cartereville and Van Wert Railroad Company,” approved March 12th, 1869, has issued his proclamation taking possession of the road on the petition of Henry Clews, together with all its property of every kind, and by his proclama tion has places! the same in the hands of Daniel S. Printup, Esq., of Rome, Ga., as agent of the State. The object of the seizure of the road is explained by the act alluded to, namely: to apply the earnings of the road to the extinguishment of the unpaid bonds and coupons for which the State by virtue of its endorsement is supposed to be liable, and in the discretion of the Governor, upon the continued failure to pay said bonds, to sell the road and equipments at such time as he in his judgement may think proper. The order for the seizure was made upon the petition of Clews, who claims to hold one hundred and seventy-five of these bonds, each for the sum of one thousand dollars. The petition avers that the semi-annual interest on the bonds, amounting to six thousand one hundred and twen ty-five dollars, became due on the first flay of September, 1870, and is now unpaid, and the further fact ap pears from the petition that these bonds wore issued on and over the first fourteen miles of the road and endorsed by the Governor of the State. The manifest wrong attempt ed to be perpetrated by these pro ceedings upon the jx-ople and the State has, for the present, received a stunning blow, and we hope and be lieve that after all the efforts which have been made and are tieing made to accomplish their ends, the parties engaged in them will meet with a final and well merited defeat. Mr. Printup came down from Rome, as agent of Conley, under the act of the Legislature, to take possession, and has gone back to Rome without ef fecting his object. By a bill of in junction heard before Judge Parrott, on Tuesday, all the parties in the in terest of Clews and Conley, as well as judgment creditors levying upon the road, have been restrained. Col. Printup demanded the possession of the road of the Sheriff. The Sheriff refused under the decree of the Court. The Colonel thought the sovereignty of the State badly treated, and insist ed on his right of possession. The Sheriff said he was bound by the or der of the Court, and having before his eyes the fear of punishment, re fused peremptorily to let the Colonel in, and so the Colonel has thus far failed to carry out the scheme of Clews and Conley. Here ends this part of the drama. What next ? We shall, in our next issue, have something more to say upon this matter. The old Etowah Iron Works.— Our heart almost sunk within us, a few days since, while viewing the ruins of this once bee-hive of indus try. We have visited these works in days of yore, when the valley and surrounding mountains were made resonant with the whirr of machine ry, the roar of falling waters, the bus tle and noise of the numerous labor ers as they plied their daily toil, and the keen, shrill whistle of the iron horse as he bore off train after train of cars loaded witli flour and iron, the products of these works and mills, to be scattered abroad the land as articles of commerce and trade, all combining to make the scene one of unusual in terest. But O! how changed the scene now. There stands Sherman’s sentinels still, in the shape of crumb ling walls and chimneys. These only mark the spots where once stood the magnificent flouring and rolling mills, furnaces, foundry, offices, store rooms, and dwellings of the old Etowah Mining A Manufacturing Company. A deathly stillness pervades the prem ises. Nothing is now heard within these borders but the rippling of the Etowah as her passing waters sing a requiem to the memory of their form er greatness, while the once busy haunts of man have been abandoned to the owls and bats. Surrounding this waste and ruin still towers Mount Anthony and neighboring peaks, frowning down upon the work of des truction so profusely scattered at their base. There the monument erected in honor to the founders of this great enterprise is rapidly crumbling into dust, and decay and forgetfulness is emblazoned upon every stone which once filled a niche in the foundations and walls of the commodious build ings. While we stood and viewed these ruins, we wondered to ourself if the glory of this enterprise had for ever departed. We trust not. STATE NEWS. Foster Blodgett, yesterday gave bond, in the sura of $25,000, for his ap pearance before the Superior Court. There were two bench warrants against him-one on account of a true bill found against him, last spring, in the Dobbins case, and the other, re cently, in connection with State Road frauds generally. His bondsmen were W m. R. Rhodes, who qualified in the sum of $50,000; Ephraim tweedy, $40,000; and A. L. Harris, whose property is said to be assessed for taxation at $12,000. The recogni zance was taken before Judge Man ning.—Atlanta Sun, 29 th. Another Seizure.— We learn that acting Governor Conley has seized upon the Cartersville and Van Wert Railroad, for non-payment of interest on bonds of the company in doreed by the State of Georgia, now in the hands of Henry Clews A Cos., and has appointed Col. D. s Printup of Rome, receiver of the road to take charge of the same and run it in the interest of the State.— Atlanta Sun. Rev. E. P. Birch has been elected President of the Methodist Female at LaGrange’ to fill the place of Mr. Calloway, resigned, and has accepted the same. An old negro named Georke Davis walked fifteen miles to Perry *on election day to vote for Smith for Governor. G Y B ?, RN Chair The Atlanta Sun says: “We learn that Mr. Conley will retire gracefully most probably without another word of protest. Macon, Ga., December 27.—A fire ball burned four stores on Cherry street. Loss sixty thousand dollars. The election for municipal officers for the city of Rome for 1872 has re sulted in the election of the “ People’s Ticket,” with Capt. H. D. Cothran as Mayor, and H. T. Hoyt, T. M. Gates. W. T. Mapp, John W. ifoble, F. i! Stone and C. G. Samuel, as Aldermen. The Hon. Joseph E. Brown lias paid into the State Treasury $25,000 rental for the month of December. This amount has been promptly paid so soon as the same became' due, ever since the road has been in the hands of the present lessees. Mr. A. M. Speights announces that he will commence the publication of the “Griffin Daily News,” on the 16th of January next. Price, $5 per annum, and independent in politics. Well, Mr. Editor, did you ever see the like! When will our little railroad quit turning summersaults, playing leap-frog, skinning the cat, etc., for it has been at these childish pranks from its earliest infancy, and just now seems to be in full practice and constant exercise. Everything connected with it seems to be but a “ school-boy’s tale, the wonder of an hour.” A few weeks ago, it was again turned completely topsy-tur vy, with some holding on to one end and some pulling at the other—ail hopeful of success, but doubtful of re sults. And that tergiversation seem ed to promise some degree of good, as it resulted in the cleaning out of the useless, vampire, supernumerary horde of so-called officials that were eagerly sucking its last drop of life blood, and completely absorbing its entire income. And so, hurrah for the evolution that stopped all that; and huzza for the hand that devised, and the hand that wrought that de liverance. The self-constituted President, with his self-given salary of $lO 00 per day, after drawing a heaping half million of State bonds and leaving the road unfinished and his laborers unpaid, felt it safest and best to repair a little nearer the Polar regions, but sent back another “ like unto himself” at an additional salary of SIOOO per day (even Sundays included) to gather up the crumbs that were left—with even a satellite or two, at SSOO per day, to help him (do nothing,) or at least to see that it was well done—thereby running their salaries beyond the en tire income of the road: Now*, wan’t that making money and paying debts for the road with a vengeance ? Why, at that rate they might have soon swallowed up road, stock, stock-hold ers and all, for deficit of salaries. Can carpet-bags never be filled, or the baggers satisfied! Why, you’d as well try to fill the grave, or satiate the horse-leach. But forbearance was neither virtu ous or tolerable, so the oppressed cried out “ who will deliver us from these bodies of death ?” To which Judge Parrott generously and promptly re plied, and through a bill of injunction cried scat, scat ! and such another scatting off, you “never seed the like”—like when the cook stamps the floor and switches all the smoked kittens out of the chimney .corner. Hope they won’t say they were Ku- Kluxed off, just because they didn’t succeed in Ku-Kluxing the road. For this Ku-Klux business won’t do on railroads or anywhere else. But, really, Mr. Editor, laying all joking aside, hasn’t this been the greatest era of revolution and change, summersaults and somersets, skin ning cat and leaping frog, bottom rail and top rail, you ever saw before! Why, only think of it: Napoleon, dethroned—the Pope, circumscribed —Brigham Young, divorced—Bul lock, runaway—Kimball, gone dis tracted, and his Cherokee Railroad officials turned heels-over-head. Well, Mr. Editor, it is funny just to look on, especially at the workings of this one little railroad. As it has doubtless cost the State more, and certainly less has been paid for the labor done on it—two-thirds broad guage, with big engine (old Nicka jack), one-third narrow-guage, with pony engine (little Zebra), meeting in the woods, squalling, squealing and switching. Well, the fact is, the peo ple of Rockmart and Van Wert really can’t toll whether the train is there or not, whether it can pull ’um or not, whether they’d better ride on it or walk or not, or what. Well, let’s wait and set? the ultimate statu quo of this marvelous little road way up Somewhere in Cherokee. FIRE ! FIRE ! ! FIRE ! ! ! Editors Standard & Express: —lt would appear that enough had already been said in regard to fire or ganization, within the last few years, to have caused our people to organize some mode for protection against the ravages of this devouring element. Every one you meet, and to whom the matter is mentioned, will say oh yes, it should be done, but why don’t we do it, is the question. We have certainly suffered sufficiently to real ize most fully the great necessity for doing something. In every city, and most towns of im- 1 portance the fire department has come to be one of considerable importance —and well it should. Cartereville is large enough and certainly able to have a fire depart ment. As we are now, let a fire break out and gain any headway, and the conflagration rages at will, and mocks the undisciplined efforts of the gathed crowd, awing them into blind dismay or stupid resignation. Society has devised no other ade quate means for security against de struction and loss than those that are to be found in the stout arms and bold hearts of her sons when uniting their strength and courage in a com mon cause. All the devices of law, or of more commercial union, look only to reparation and relief,after the injury or loss has occurred. Insu rance Companies are instituted upon this principle, though I would not depreciate their advantages and ad mit that the premium paid for their policies are investments wisely made, and the absence of fire organizations here and elsewhere cause a much higher premium to be paid than would be required if it existed. I know of my own knowledge that there are many men in this place ready and willing to go into an organ ization of this kind—men who do not own one dimes worth of real estate. All they need is proper encouragement in the way of funds to purchase out fits, etc., either from the property holders by subscription, or by the au thorities of the place. I have, known at least a dozen attempts to get up a fire organization, but a few of the property owners ever made their ap pearance. Those who would come adjourned to other times hoping to get them out, but they finally dwin dled down to nothing, dis couraged those? philanthropic gentle men who were trying to do some thing for the good of all, and the en terprises given up. You have through the columns of your valuable paper urged this mat ter upon the people. Continue to do so and keep it before them to their great shame, until they do something. Some of our people seem to want Cartereville to be made a city. If this will do us any good and beget a more enterprising spirit among us, why let us be made a city, but I can’t see how it will help us. We will be no more a city than we are now, ex cept in name, and the truth is, we will be a very poor town unless we do something to sustain ourselves in the way of public enterprises, manu factures, etc. But I am getting off the track, and will leave the balance to you. So stir up the people on the matter of a fire organization especial ly, and manufacturing enterprises generally. Jinks. -WTHfW I h It a V« Wert IUII ro«4 Company. The following article, taken from the Atlanta Constitution of the 2nd, I censuring Clews, at whose instance [ th e road was seized, speaks for itself: ! W e have now got some strong evi dence to show that Henry Clews A Cos., of New York, are mixed up knowingly in the improper use of our railroad securities. The Era contains a column proclamation from the act ing Executive reciting a petition of Henry Clews A Cos., to the effect that they hold and own one hundred and seventy-five bonds of the Cartereville A Aan \\ ert Railroad Company, in dorsed by the State, to cover the first fourteen miles of the road, for which they paid 90 cents on the dollar, on which bonds the company has failed to pay the interest, wherefore they pray that the Exec itive will seize the road, and apply the earnings first to paying the laborers liens and then to the interest due them. Clews A Cos. swear to these state ments. Upon this petition Mr. Conley seiz es the road and puts it in the hands of Colonel Daniels. Print up as the State’s receiver. Colonel Printup is under stood to be Clews A Co’s, attomev. So that he occupies the two fold and conflicting position of attorney for pe titioners and agent for the State, if this be true. Now, let us look into this most ex traordinary affair, for it is extraordi nary to a remarkable degree. Governor Bullock in his letter to Mr. Conley, of December Ist, 1870, about the bouds, has these para graphs: As to the Cartereville A Van Wert or Cherokee Road, that company noti fied the Executive Department that they had retired, and cancelled the Cartere yille A Van Wert bonds, and would issue under the new charter as “Cher okee Railroad. ” If the report is not true, the State is bound only on the Cartereville A Van Wert indorse ment. It may be said that I should have required the cancelled railroad bonds to be returned to the State. This would have been abundant caution, but the bonds were those of the rail road company, and not the State, and I pursued the same course with their notice as with the Air-line Railroad. That company reported their bonds cancelled and 1 believe they are, though 1 have never seen them. The newspaper statement is that Clews holds the Cartereville A Van Wert bonds yet as against amounts alleged to be due him. My recollec tion is that Clews is or was the Treas urer of that Company. If so, he would seem to be the official with whom those bonds should have been retired. His connection with the bonds as Treasurer and as banker may, however, Ik? distinct and separate. In any event the State is bound only for one issue, and investigation will decide the truth or falsity of the com pany’s report, that the first issue had been retired. It will thus be seen that the Car tersville A Van Wert, or Cherokee, Railroad Company, of which Henry Clews was and is Treasurer, notified Governor Bullock that the bonds mentioned in the petition of Clews A Cos., were retired and cancelled and new ones issued in their stead. The new bonds indorsed by the State are now out and in use, while Clews & Cos. hold the cancelled bonds and make their possession the basis of their petition for the seizure of the road and its transfer to their own at torney as receiver on account of the neglect of the company, of which Clews is Treasurer, to pay the inter est. The situation is this. On the basis of cancelled bonds, held by Clews, banker, and for failure of interest that should be paid by Clews, Treasurer, Clews, banker and treasurer, petitions Conley to seize the road, who does it, and puts it in the hands of Clews’ al leged attorney. We pretermit any comment upon Col. Printup, until it is known wheth er he still continues to be Clews’ at torney. He is a gentleman of stand ing and integrity, and we would not do him injustice. But Clews & Cos. stand in no envia ble position. Clewa, TxummyQA Kjf I the company, must have known of the company’s report to Governor Bullock that the first bonds were can celled. And if Clews, as banker, held these cancelled bonds as live ones, and permitted the new bonds to be used by the company, he is party to a di rect fraud on the State. Where are the new bonds? Clews, as treasurer, should know this fact. The aspect of fraud is most striking. Mr. Conley has acted most precipi tately, it appears to us, and negligent ly. But there is another feature of this matter. These old bonds were issued before five milt's of the road were completed, and therefore are not val id. Issued illegally, the subsequent completion of the road does not vali date them. Clews, as Treasurer of the road, was presumed to know its progress, and therefore was cognizant of the premature and illegal issue of bonds. It is certainly a very strange condi tion of affaire. Did Mr. Clews deceive Governor Bullock ? Or has Governor Bullock misrepresented Mr. Clews? It is a bad complication for someone. A private letter from New York says that “ Mr. Clews does not enjoy the confidence of the commercial com munity of New York; that he abuses Georgia and the Georgia Treasury ; that he asserts he has been a victim, and he did not know Georgia from Bullock, thought Bullock was Geor gia.” This writer wants Mr. Clews brought before the Investigating Committee. GENERAL NEWS. Columbia, S. C.

The tuition will be from S2OO to SSOO per month, according to grade, payable monthly. I he government of this institution will be mild, but firm. As order is the first law of na ture, so children must, and will, be governed, that are entrusted to our care. Large boys and girls will be put upon their parole ol honor, and if they do, at any time, violate the rules of the institution, they must immediately reform, or else retire from the Institution.
