A lioantiful Woman.—The perceptive fac
ulty of women is usually keener than the same
phrenological organ in men. Women know
that beauty rather than genius is worshipped
by the sterner sex A inan may talk of the lat
ter to his lady-love, but the keenness of the
woman knows that he is thinking of the former.
Women are fond of admiration; hence one of
their longings is to lie beautiful. The grand
secret of female beauty is health, the power to
cat, digest and assimilate a proper quantity of
wholesome food. Take Vinegar Bitters. It will
cleanse the stomach, tone the vital organa, give
a perlect digestion, purify the blood, clear up
the complexion and produce a state of mental
and physical electricity, which gives symmetry
of form, bright eyes, white skin, glossy hair
and a genuine type of female loveliness.’which
no cosmetic can produce. jan 18 4\v

son, and, wo believe, gave universal satis
faction by fair dealing nnd the character of
their trees. We liavo tried them ourself and
found them all right; and if we did not
think them the right kind of men, we would be
the last to commend them as we do, — Car-

Sinking Slowly.
Diseases that progress rapidly to a crisis are
not the only ones to be dreaded. Canker ordry
rot does not blast a tree as suddenly as a stroke
of lightning, hut unless arrested it destroys it as
certainly: and in like manner chronic debility,
although It does not kill with the swiftness of
yellow fever, is as sure to sap the springs of life
eventually as any acute disease, it not cheeked
by invigorating medication. There is something
Inexpressibly touching in the spectacle of pre
mature decay. Languor, pallor, emaciation,
depression of spirits, and a distaste for exertion
aie its ordinary symptoms, and thov should he
promptly met by tonic, treatment. The best in
vigornnt and exhiterant that can he adminis
tered in a case of this kind is II os tetter’s Stom
ach Hitters. The stimulating principle of the
preparation rouses the dormant energies of the
system, and the strengthening ami regulating
properties give a permanent and healthful im
pulse to the vital forces thus brought iuto play.
The tailiug appetite is re-aw akened, tile process
of digestion and assimilation' is quickened,
the quality of the blood is improved, the secre
tions become more natural, and every organ
that contributes to the nourishment of the body
undergoes salutary change. Ily these mean's
the repair of the physical structure is effected
and its health and \ igor restored. In no class
of diseases has the beneficent operation of the
Hitters been more marked and striking than in
those characterized by general debility and
nervous prostration. Ladies affected with these
ailments find in this most wholesome of all
tonics and correctives the safest and surest
means of relief. It is strong to restore and
powerless to injure. Such is the uniform testi
mony of “clouds of witnesses
The question has often been asked by those
Interested, “Can I have my gray hair restored
to its natural color, without coloring the skin?
and can my thin locks be thickened tip? ” We
answer, “ It can;" and would advise you to read
a treatise ou the hair, which is published by U.
I*. Hall A Cos., Nashua, N. 11., wiio send it tree,
upon application. They are the proprietors of
Hall’s V egetable Sicilian Hair Renewer. We
learn from it, the hair, in a perfect state of
health, is constantly tailing out, and new hairs
grow from the same tubes; but, in case of any
disease of the scalp, or by the uso of alcoholic
preparations, the hair-tube becomes contracted
at its mouth, and prevents the new follicle from
reaching the surface. Their preparation will
create a perfectly healthy condition of the
scalp, and, by its tonic properties, will preserve
and strengthen the roots of the hair. — Staten

“There was a frog who lived in a spring,

A Stable Institution.—Just at the period
when all "table- men were complaining that the
horse-ointments of the day were unstable reme
dies. the Mpstano Liniment made its entree in
Missouri, without any flourish of trumpets, and
within one year, became the favorite embroca
tion for the external distempers and injuries of
horses and cattle in all the Western and South
ern States. From that time to this, it has nev
er had a rival in the estimation of accomplish
ed horsemen; nor is its household reputation as
a cure for rheumatism, neuralgia sore nipples
and caked breasts, tumors, mumps, sore throat,
earache, toothache, bruises, burns, wounds and
sprains, a whit behind its celebrity as ahorse
Liniment. The Mothers of America know its
value, ami apply it promptly to the external in
juries of the " rising generation,” and in fact
there i> not a city or township in the United
Mates where the Mist am. Liniment is not re
garded by both sexes and every class, as a
blessing to the community.
Fixe Mules. —We stopped in at
the old Livery Stable of Messrs. It. C
& J . E. Roberts, on East Main Street,
on Tuesday last, and inspected a lot
of twenty tine mules which Mr. Wm.
P. Milam lias just received from the
West, and are on side at that stable.
We never saw a lot of finer looking
mules collected together. Mr. M. has
brought them on here to supply our
farmers, and others, with stock for
the approaching crop season. All
who are in need of this kind of stock t
would do'well to call at these stables
and see these mules, and learn prices,
befoee purchasing elsewhere. They
will be kept on hand in Cartersville,
we learn, until disposed of.
Also prepared to feed horses at 25
cents a head per feed, at this stable.

who is in jail at this place, and under

T""Tmiip riimiirsrwinn r ■wrus..»»
musie, at the Baptist Church in this
place, on Monday night lart, was well
attended by our people, especially
considering the severity of the weath
er. The evening was one of bitter
coldness. The entertainment was an
exceedingly- interesting one. It was
opened with reading select passages
of scripture Itearing on the subject of
Hinging by Mr. Phillips, singing of a
familiar air suited to lines printed in
the programme in which the entire
audience engaged, Mr. P. leading on
the organ, after which the audience
was led in prayer by Rev. George R.
Kramer. Our citizens were highly
complimented by Mr. Phillips on their
good singing, which, we confess, was
very soul-stirring. The exercises of
the evening were interspersed with
an occasional familiar air worded
in the programme in which the whole
audience participated—-Coronation j
and Old Hundred, for instance. Oh
that our citizens would always, when j
they meet to worship God, sing in the |
spirit as they did on this occasion.—
The lecture that Mr. Phillips read us
on the subject of sacred music as a part
of religious worship, we trust, will not
only not bo forgotten, but strictly ad
hered to, by all who hoard him. He
said that every attendant upon social |
worship should be supplied with a j
hymn book, and all those that could j
sing ought to sing, and those that {
could not sing ought to read the hymn
aloud, and instanced Mr. Spurgeon’s j
church, in England, as an example of I
its salutary workings. He further
said that a few in a congregation had
no more right to monopolize the sing
ing than they had the praying—that |
a few birds had the same right to do I
all the singing for the whole feather
ed hard. He was not opposed to I
choirs or instrumental music, hut on
the contrary, was their advocate; hut
he was opposed to the few who com
posed the choir monopolizing congre
gational singing by selecting operatic
anti other styles of music with which
the congregation was unacquainted.
He advised the meeting together of
classes, during the week, and the prac
ticing of such hymns as would be sung
at church on the following sabbath.—
He felt that, in traveling over the
country, singing, as he was, sacred
songs which touched the hearts of his
hearers and filled their mouths with
sentiments of praise to God, and lec
turing the people upon the importance
of sacred music as a religious devotion,
he was fulfilling his mission on earth.
He had often been solicited to intro
duce operatic, comic, and other styles
of secular music into his entertain
ments, hut that as long as he had a
voice to praise God he had resolved to
sing for Jesus, and when lie ceased to
do that, he would cease to sing at all.
As to the private character of Mr.
Phillips we know nothing and can
say nothing. His concerts are con
ducted upon strictly moral principles,
lie sings well and spiritedly; and the
tendency of his sacred song is to ele
vate the affections of Lis hearers by
raising and training their voices to
the praise of God. His pieces w’ere
well rendered, both vocally and in
strumentally, and were listened too
with rapt attention by the audience.
Why may not all our churches he
blessed with such soul-inspiring and
heart-ravishing music every time we
meet for social worship? We have
the elements to make good music, if
we have not a Philip Phillips to lead
it. We hope that the pastors of our
several churches will urge our jieople
to sing, on all occasions. If we have
good singing it inspires all our devo
tions. The Man of God preaches with
more power and effect, the congrega
tions are more in the spirit for hearing
the outside world catch the afflatus
and are thereby lured to the House of
God. Good spiritual singing is gen
erally an indication of a high state of
religious enjoyment and sentiment.
The happy soul strives to give ex
pression to its joy in hymns of Praise
to God. “Let the people praise Thee,
O God, let alt. the people praise
Thee.”
HOMK PAPER.
This is the season of the year, says
the Jamestown Journal, when the
large city newspaper and magazine
publishers are sending out their
prospectuses into tins country, and
every post-ofiiecis flooded with “great
inducements” to subscribe for this and
that periodical. This is all right,
provided you do not lose sight of the
fact that you have a newspaper near
er your own door that is a hundred
times more closely identified with
your" prospeerity, and more sincerely
interested in the welfare of your own
neighborhood and county, than all
the city papers combined. A con
temporary, in remarking on this
subject, says: “Do the city papers
say anything in regard to your own
county? Nothing. Do they contain
notices of your schools, churches,
meetings, improvements and hun
dreds of other local matters of interest,
which your papers publish without
pay? Not an item. Do they ever
say a word calculated to draw atten
tion to your county and its numerous
thriving towns, and aid in their
progress and enterprise?—Not a line.
And yet there are men who take such
contracted views of this matter, that,
unless they are getting as many
square inches of reading matter in
their own paper as they do in a city
paper, they think they are not getting
the worth of their money. It reminds
us of the person who took the largest
pair of boots in the box, simply
because they cost the same as the pair
much smaller, that fit.”
Another one of our old citizens lia s
passed away from earth since the last
I issue of our paper. John Smith, who
i resided just below Cassville, one day
last week, had just returned from his
son-in-law’s, complained of a pain
in his stomach, and laid down on a
pallet on the floor from which he
never arose. He died in a few min
utes. The disease was pronounced to
be neuralgia of the stomach. It will
be remembered that the deceased was
the father of our unfortunate young
friend, Dick Smith, who was killed
in this place, some year or two since,
by Greene Spencer. We state these
facts from the best information we can
get from parties on our streets.

and immortal ex-Confederate Lieut-
General, died in Maury county, Ten
nessee, on the morning of the 2oth
ultimo. His wife died two days be

I man and soldier, second only to Gens.
R. E. Lee Jackson.—
; Much of the success that attended
| these two great Generals, and particu
| larly the Litter, during the late war,
w*as attributable to Gen. Ewell.—
While we w’ould not detract one ioto
from the fame and worth of our tw’o
lamented and revered military chief
tains, we would fail to do our duty by
failing to say that, owing to the fact
that Gen. Ewell lost a leg in fighting
for the Lost Cause, which disabled him
for active field service at the heels of
the war, he never got full credit for
gallantry and strategy displayed by
him, in the Valley campaign under
Gen. Jackson, prior to losing his leg.
At the death'of Gen. Jackson, Gen.
Lee placed Gen. Ewell in* command
of Jackson’s corps—familiarly known
as Jackson’s foot cavalry—as the next
best officer to fill his place, and the
very first movement that Ewell made
with Jackson’s old corps, after suc
ceeding to the command, was to sur
prise Milroy at Winchester and cap
tured his entire garrison, munitions
and equipage. He commanded the
corps in the Pennsyalvania campaign,
and on the return, of the army to Vir
ginia, finding that his snub of a lost
leg was inflaming and giving him
much pain, he was relieved from the
command of Jackson’s corps, and as
signed duty at Richmond, and Gen.
Early succeeded to his old command.
No truer champion had the Southern
Confederacy than Gen. Ewell. All
honor to his memory, end peace to
his ashes.

A sentimental young lady asks
us to write some poetry about the
snow. We have tried our hand with
the following unhappy result, which
is the best we can do under the cir
cumstances. We reluctantly submit
it, and beg the young lady’s pardon:
THE SNOW.
The beautiful snow is falling,
And covering mother earth,
The boys in the streets are bawl-lug,
And having fun and mirth.
Others are hunting rabbits, .
In hollow logs and trees;
It seems to me such habits
Would make a fellow freeze!
The snow is soft and flaky,
And when it melts, its wet;
When out, we soon grow shaky.
And seek the fire, “ you bet!”
Oh, it is snowing, snowing, snowing,
As oft its done before,
And the little boys are throwing
Cold snow balls at the door !
The Rockmart Reporter, published
by Gibson A Heath, is a sprightly lit
tle sheet, and bids fair to be a com
plete success. The subscription price
has been reduced to the low sum of
one dollar a year, and all who are es
pecially interested in its continued
existence and prosperity, would do
well to sustain it in the beginning of
its career, in order that it may be
placed upon a safe and permanent
footing.
We were snow-balled the other
evening by the Nestor of Cartersville.
It was a cool affair, coming from such
a source, and we could not find it in
our heart to resist or retaliate, but
meekly submitted to our fate. How
truly may it be said that
“ A little nonsense now and then,
Is relished by the best of men.”
The Musical concert, on Wednes
day night of last week, at the Presby
terian Church, was not well attended,
but the few who were present, passed
the time very pleasantly indeed, and
were impressed with the fact that Mr.
and Mrs. Pratt art* excellent perform
ers in their line.
We are always grieved when we
see boys hunting and shooting the lit
tle birds around town, and about the
farms in the country. We consider
such sport to be wanton cruelty, and
wish that parents, teachers and others,
would teach the children better and
more profitable enjoyment. Why
should the little innocent birds be de
stroyed, with stones and deadly shot
guns ? Who does not delight to see
their beautiful plumage, and to hear
their sweet songs around our homes,
and in the fields and forests ? And
every intelligent former and gardener
knows that they do a great deal of
good, by destroying the insects and
worms which prey upon vegetation.
The little birds are our friends then,
and not our enemies, and it is cruel
and wrong to kill or disturb them.
Boys, let them alone, and
“ Take not that life in sport you
cannot give,
For all tilings have an equal right
to live!”
Brass Band. —We are gratified to
announce that a Brass Band, consist
ing of a number of the enterprising
young men of our town, has recently
been organized, and will soon be pre
pared to favor our citizens with mu
sic, whenever their services are re
quired. We know that all our people
will be glad to have the time
enlivened by “the concord of sweet
sounds,” discoursed by eur Brass
Band. Such an institution Is indis
pensible in a “live town,” and we
hope the boys will continue to be in
terested in the matter, and will al
ways be ready to give us music, on
all proper occasions.
Dr. J. M. Young, formerly of Can
ton, Ga., and late of Mississippi, has
recently come to our town, with a

ter days,” and bespeak for him a lib
eral share of patronage in his pro fas.
sion, and hope that he will be pleased
with Lis new home.
Bullock’s farm and barn, we insist

It seems to be as difficult to have this
understood, as it is for the LaGrange

rectly.
More Snow. —On Thursday even
ing, 25th inst., we were again visited
by a fine fall of snow. The ground
being frozen it failed to melt, and this
morning, (the 2Gth) it covers the earth
to the depth of about three inches.
We have had an unusual amount of
this element the present winter, and
the result is an increased demand for
fuel and food for stock. “ The beau
tiful snow” has a cheerful appearance
to those who have plenty to eat and
to wear, and comfortable fires, but to
those who enjoy not those blessings,
it brings sadness and pain. The poor
should be remembered especially in
cold weather.
*
We often wonder why persons in
planting trees for shade and ornament,
do not select those which will bear
fruit, such as hickory, walnut, mul
berry, chestnut, Ac. In this way the
useful and ornamental might be unit
ed, and the children would enjoy such
fine sport gathering nuts in the fall!
We are expecting the arrival this
week, of a lot of pecan trees, which
we intend to plant both for their shade
and fruit.
The LaGrange Reporter continues
to be considerably exercised over the
ignorance of “ country editors.” He
has by some means discovered that
“ warehouse” is simply a single word,
and he sets everybody down as hav
ing the simples who don’t understand
it as he does. That word seems to be
his favorite hobby, and he is deter
mined to put it through, regardless of
consequences. We wish him great
success in his laudable attempt to re
form the errors of the press, and care
not how soon he may accomplish the
object of his mission ; but at the same
time we imploringly exclaim,
“ Don’t view us with a critic’s eye,
But pass our imperfections by !”
As timber in the course of a few
years will become scarce and high, it
is a matter of some importance to our
farmers to economize in fencing their
farms; and we know of no easier and
better way of doing this, than by sub
stituting ditches for rail fences, where
such a thing is practicable; and such
is the case where a fence runs along
an inclined plane. A small ditch
which has a little fall will continually
become larger and deeper, and will
soon become impassable to all kinds
of stock. And ditches have many
advantages over fences, as they do
not rot, burn or need repairing.

THE GREAT WE/STERN CAN AL.
Our advices from Washington, re
specting the prospects of this great
enterprise, are of a very encouraging
nature. .Among the Western and
Southern members of both Bouses,
there seems to be no opposition 1 what
ever. The members from the East
ern and middle States, are generally
favorably disposed. The success of
the enterprise, therefore, now de
pends almost wholly, it would seem,
upon the people of Georgia them
selves. If we will but move p wmpt
ly in this matter, and send delega
tions from the different sections of
the State, and thus lay the matter
before Congress in its true ligirt, the
appropriation can l>e had duryjg the
present session, and the work >ut un
der successful contract during ihe en
suing summer.— Era.
