STANDARD AND EXPRESS,
CARTERRVILLE, OA., FEB. 8, 1872.
Ipar Heading matter on every page
Messrs Editors The joke you
perpetrated through an announce
ment in your last paper, demands a
slight correction at my hands. Who
the mythical lady may be, of whom
you speak, I know not. I only know
that tne heroine of the little story I
gent you is called Marietta, and that
I myself translated “The Broken
Pitcher.” „
Yours respectfully,
L. Moon.
Cartersville Female Senainary, Feb.
1, 1872.
We most heartily confess our over
sight, and beg pardon for the blunder.
We discovered the error, but too late
to correct it in the announcement in
cur last issue. Had we read the story
before making the announcement, we
would have discovered that “Mariet
ta” was the heroine of the story, and
that the translator was Miss L. Moon
Instead of Mias D. Moon, as stated. —
the “L.” in the copy, owing to the
«‘y” above it extending down into it,
gave it the appearance of a “D.,”
which was the main cause of our be
ing misled.
REMOVAL OF POLITICAL DISABILI
TIES.—Mr. YOUNG, by unanimous
consent, introduced a bill (If. It, No.
1324) to remove the disabilities of
certain persons therein named; which
was read a first and second time.
The bill, which was read, provides
for the removal of political disabilities
from David Irwin, Lewis Tumlin,
Warren Aken, James W. Harris,
T. C. Howard, and Lafayette Mac
Laws, of Georgia.
There being no objection, the bill
was ordered to be engrossed and read
a third time; and being engrossed, it
was accordingly read the third time
and (two thirds voting in favor
thereof) was passed.
Vagrants,— Mayor Huff of Ma
con has issued orders to his police to
bring every man, white or black, be
fore him who has no visible means of
support. This is a good move, and a
similar order by our authorities
would effect good results. There are
idlers in our midst who, we believe,
if followed in their rambles, especial
ly at night, would lead into forbid
den paths.
A World cable special dated Lon
don 3d, says Chief Justice Cockbum
has officially counseled the Cabinet
that England must recede immedi
ately from the treaty of Washington,
leaving America to decide between a
new treaty or war. The Cabinet is
now discussing the terms on which
this resolution shall appear in the
Queen’s speech at the opening of
Parliament.
The London Times declares that if
the Alabama claims are presented
England must notify the Geneva ar
bitrators and the American Govern
ment that efforts at arbitration may
as well cease. The Daily Telegraph
says negotiations to that end have
been opened, but the British repre
sentatives were not received in a
friendly manner.
A prominent lawyer was hailed
while passing a jewelry store, by the
proprietor, with: “General, come in
here a moment, we have something
for you to solve. If a man brings
his watch to be fixed, and it cost me
ten cents to do it, and I keep it a
week, and charge him six dollars,
what per centum do I make? We
have bet‘n figuring and make it nine
hundred per cent., and have only got
up to one dollar. How much do
you say it would be at six dollars?”
“ Well,” replied the General, “1 do
not wonder at your perplexity, for it
is well known, and the celebrated
Babbage calculating machine has
demonstrated that at certain points
in progressive numbers the law
would change, and long before it
would reach the six dollars, it would
run out of per cent, and into what is
known as larceny.”— Springfield, lie
publican.
PRETTY GOOD.
The best feature of the times is that
even the negroes are spewing out the
carpet-baggers. Here is what a South
Carolina negro named Delaney has
to say to Governor Scott. It is short,
pointed, forcible, and suggestive:
“To )lift Excellency, B. K. Scott, Gov
ernor of South Carolina:
Silt: 1 have the honor herewith to
resign my position as Aid-de-Camp,
with the rank of Lieutenant Colonel,
on your Stall’. Facts the most palpa
ble have developed themselves to
such an extent that I cannot, with re
spect to myself, and justice to the
cause of my race and the people in
general, longer continue the relation
without a compromise of principle.
I have the honor to be, sir, your most
obedient servant,
M. It. Delaney.”
A Virginia paper has a most
felicitous way of employing elegant
and expressive figures of speech, as
witness the following: “The devil
first invented snakes, fleas, scorpions,
tarantulas, centipedes, mosquitos,
gnats, hyenas, owls, buzzards, hawks,
vultures, alligators, stingorees, gars,
sharks, chigres, and vampires; and,
to concentrate all the meanness and
deviltry in creation, he put these in
a cauldron and boiled them down and
produced a carpet-bagger, as the
masterpiece of Satanic hate. And
Satan smiled when his eye first rested
on his last born and favorite bantling.’
Stokes, who shot Fisk, it is said will
plead in his defense that Fisk gave
himself the wound of which he died,
from a pistol which he was endeavor
ing to use upon Stokes. That Stokes
only shot him in the arm, while the
wound which proved fatal was in the
abdomen, and was caused by the ball
from Fisk’s pistol.
By the apportionment bill which
has passed both houses of Congress,
the number of Representatives will
be 283, instead of 243, as at present.
Georgia has now seven representa
tives, and by the present bill will be
entitled to nine. This, of course, will
necessitate the redistricting of the
State, and if fair play is had, North
Georgia, where the great body of the
white population is fast centering,
and which is destined to be, for all
time, the controling power in the
State, will come in for at least an ad
ditional member.
The Republican party refuse to
amend the Constitution, so that For
eigners may be eligible to the offices
of President and Vice President of the
United States. In their eyes he is not
the equal of Sambo, who is by the
Constitution entitled to these privili
r*.
We call attention to the following
extract from the Mobile Register,
which we take from the Savannah
Republican, as well worthy the con
sideration of the Democratic party,
endorsing fully the remark of that pa
per that it is “just, well-timed and
sensible:”
And now about these anti-Grant
Republicans. It takes two sides to
mA e a bargain. The Democracy
with their 3,000,000 of backers have
unreservedly expressed their willing
ness to treat. Nay, they have done a
good deal of wooing and indulged in
a reasonable amount of soft dalliance
to bring atiout an alliance with the
anti-Grant leaders and their 1,000,000
of followers. But the million maid
fights shy of the three million suitor
and seems not to have made up her
mind whether she will give the mit
ten or her hand to the stal wart wooer.
In this uncertain state of affairs, it is
quite natural that Democrats, proud
of their great patriotic party, and jeal
ous of its honor or dignity, should cry
a halt for inquiry as to whither this
one-sided negotiation is leading us.
Are the anti-Grant men waiting until
the Democracy abandon the field,
and, without treaty, terms of stipula
tions, have pledged every one of their
8.000,000 of voters to their ticket and
platform? If so, they will wait till
doomsday, because there is no earth
ly power that can make and keep the
pledge. In spite of all the perils of
the situation, of all the appeals to pa-
triotism, men are men. and not one
third of the 6,000,000 of Democratic
voters can be brought to the polls up
on any such terms, or rather upon
any such no terms. Then what be
comes of Mr. Doolittle’s proposition,
which requires 1,(NX),000 Liberal Re
publicans and 3,000,000 of Democrats
to beat Grant? It is gone. In order
to make his proposition effective there
must be a fair and open treaty nego
tiated between the Democratic party
as a party, with the body of the anti-
Grant Republicans, reciprocal in its
character, and based upon distinctly
understood compromises, and all to
the common end of saving the free in
stitutions of the country from ruin.
It is folly to ask one of the negotiat
ing parties, w r ith a three million back
ing, to stand aside and leave the one
million party on the other side to do
as it pleases. It is a folly because it is
utterly impracticable. Democrats as
units will not stand it by hundreds of
thousands, and there are men who, if
nominated by the anti-Grant Repub
licans, Democrats would not only not
vote for, but would prefer Grant as a
choice of evils. We have said for
ourselves, and we repeat it now, that
as between Grant and his corruptions,
and Charles Sumner and his diabolic
al principles and undying hatred to
the Southern people, we should not
hesitate to vote for Grant. No; a
treaty is a treaty ? and it requires two
powers to make it. If the anti-Grant
men ever do get ready to make the
bargain, let it be made by the Democ
racy as an organized power, and the
other side when it becomes organiz
ed. If the Philadelphia Convention
nominates Grant, the fair and proper
way would be for an anti-Grant Re
publican Convention and the Demo
cratic Convention to meet at the same
time and place, and then and there
see if, w ithout a sacrifice of principle,
and in view of a great public crisis
appealing to the patriotism of good
citizens everywhere, a coalition might
not be formed. We have repeatedly
expressed the opinion that such a
coalition may be made. If the parties
are honest and in earnest, it must be
made.
The Democratic party should
strengthen itself, and knit and con
solidate its scattered forces for the
meeting. And it is our principal ob
jection to “ Passivism” that its ten
dency is to demoratize and break up
the party, and render it not only un
fit for negotiation, but a weak and
inefficient ally should a treaty of al
liance be made. Jf the anti-Grant
Republicans mean what they say, there
will be no obstacle to a treaty that good
sense and a liberal spirit may not readi
ly overcome.
The Democrats will come to the
negotiation in a generous spirit. And
if, upon full debate, it is deemed
wisest that a a patriotic and liberal
Republcan shall be the standard-bear
or of tho conjoined armies, even that
may be yielded by the stronger
to the weaker of the contracting par
ties. But in the latter case, the Dem
ocrats must be consulted as to the
man. They must have a guarantee
that neither a Sumner, or a Ben But
ler, or a Wendell Phillips are to be
commended to their support. And
if after all effort the treaty fails, then
we are in favor of massing the old
Democratic party, and going into
constitutional liberty single handed,
under its ancient banners, and with a
fire and courage worthy of its histor
ic renown. We do not believe with
our St. Louis contemporary that vic
tory is impossible in such an issue. If
it were so, we have still a noble duty
to perform. For, to admit that
Grantocracy is invincible is to admit
that liberty is in chains, and forty
millions of American people are Im
perial captives.
Migration from South Caroli
na.—The Union Times, of the 26th
inst., says:
A large number of citizens from the
nine persecuted counties of this State,
are emigrating to the States of Georgia,
Texas and Arkansas. Scarcely a train
passes that does not carry a number of
white families away; but there is a
greater exodus of colored people than
whites. On our way to Columbia a
few weeks ago, we found in the cars of
the Spartanburg and Union Road not
less than twenty able-bodied colored
men, someJNvith’their families, w r ho
were on their way to the West, and
they told us thatja number of other
colored people w T ere preparing to leave
while a great many more would like
to go if they had the means. One of
the men made the following signifi
cant remark: “If the d—d Marshals
had left the white folks alone, we
should have stayed here and done
well, but we can’t stay where de
white folks are drove away.”
It is a singular sact —and one that
goes far to deny the assertions of the
Radical press and their lying corres
pondents, that the colored people do
not feel secure among the white
Southern people, and are abused by
them—that scarcely a wiiite family
has left this county without being
followed by twice as many colored
families. Soon after the Marshals
commenced their indiscriminate
arrests of the white people of this
countv, the neighborhood of Pacolet
was almost depopulated of its white
men. Great fear was then entertained
that the colored become
troublesome to the women and
children left: but, strange to say, the
colored people of that section are now
following their old neighbors and
employers so fast that one-half the
grolifie lands of that section will not
e cultivated this year for want of
labor. It is estimated that about 100
white men and three hundred colored
persons have left Union county during
the past two months, and we learn
they are leaving tne other eight
counties in about the same ratio.
The colored people, when left to
their own free and unbiased choice,
will always cling to the true white
Southern people.
Governor Smith has consolidated
the two offices of Keeper of the
Capitol Grounds and Seperintendent
of Public Works, and has apointed
Dr. Edward A. Flewellyn, of Upson
county, to take charge thereof. Dr.
Flewellyn, during the war, was
Medical Director of the Army of
Tennessee, and is a gentleman of high
character.
General Richard S. Ewell.—
One by one they pass over the river
to rest under the shade of the trees.
The great leaders of the Confederacy
are fast passing away, hirst it was
Jackson—then Lee—and now another
prominent actor of the late eventful
war is added to the list.
He is at rest at last, and his battles
are all over. With Jackson and Lee,
and the mighty host of nameless
heroes, who crowed the'valhallas of
the dead, he sleeps in peace '.—Rich

Messrs Editors :
It hath been said
By some wise head,
“ Whatever is, is right.”
But as I go,
I mean to show,
He was mistaken quite.
I have held my peace, and quietly
observed suffering humanity go on,
and on, and on, mutely bearing “ the
ills they have” than “ flying to oth
ers” of whose existence they are igno
rant ; and complaining of a tyrantress
who rules over them with an unresis
ted sway, until I am forced, by a sense
of duty, to utter a protest against her
despotism.
I will speak out and say—though I
may incur her lasting displeasure,
yea, though I be summoned to appear
before her majesty, to answer to a
charge of treason —that her reign is
becoming intolerable, and I am one
in favor of demolishing her kingdom,
and taking the reins in our own hands
and “going it alone,’ as our own
tastes and comforts may dictate. For,
Mr. Editor, when I look around on
the suffering youths of our land, and
see them, as it were, humbly submit
ting to the unreasonable whims of
this sovereign, with a troubled look of
resignation on their faces, I cry (but
not too loud) for vengeance.
Oh ! had I the dexterity of William
Tell I would seize the tx>w of common
sense, and with the areow r of economy
destroy this modern Gesler.
Passing through one of your fash
ionable streets, I saw a victim of her
cruelty—a young lady, forsooth, who
probably for a very trivial offence, or,
perhaps, merely for the gratification
of her unaccountable desires was
doomed to stoop to the tortures of the
“ Grecian Bend.”
Further along, I saw another fair
victim, groaning under an enormous
burden of false hair! which her cruel
verdict had compelled her to bear,
simply because others were consigned
to a similar fate.
These are but a few of the many in
stances to which I might call your at
tention. I might sight you to the
cases of many young men, who, to
gratify the demands of Fashion, must
bare their ears to the keen and biting
blasts of Winter, their locks being
shorn too close to afford protection to
the exposed member. And to those
who must crowd a No. 8 foot, into a
No. 6 boot, that they may occupy less
territory, and that the joy of the kine
may be suppressed on witnessing their
approach.
I could add more but deem it use
less, for, is not this sufficient to cause
us to rebel and proclaim aloud that
w r e will be free / Ladies and gentle
men, will you sit peacefully down, and
be any longer crushed beneath the
heel of the Tyrantess ?
Yours respectfully,

Editors Standard & Express.—
We are truly glad to hear that a com
pany have in contemplation the re
building of the Etowah Iron Works;
also that the mechanics of Cartersville
are making preparations to build a
Cotton Factory, on the Etowah near
your town, (come very near saying
city,) and we sincerely hope that
nothing will frustrate their noble de
signs. This is a step in the proper
direction. We say success to the un
dertakers. Nothing in the judgment
of your humble correspondent would
pay greater dividends on the eapitol
invested than the erection of such
works, surrounded as they are with
every facility that heart could wish.
The valley of the Etowah offers in
ducements to eapitol rarely found in
any country. Her water power is
magnificent, her rich beds of iron ore,
fertile lands, and fine timber, and
quarries of rock hewed out, by the
hand of nature, ready for the builders
use, all unite in inviting capital to
her banks; the dimate is healthy, the
winters mild and the summers very
pleasant, and strange to say that while
all this is true, our people have over
looked to a great degree, the main
prop to a countries glory, that of man
ufacturing, and have continually la
bored for other people, and other sec
tions. A country may produce her
thousands of grain and cotton, she
may ship to other portions of the land
large products of the farm, and in re
turn receive vast sums of money, but,
sirs, if she wishes to be independent,
if she wishes to command respect, at
home and abroad, if she wishes to re
tain her young men in her borders,
and make her people contented, she
must engage in manufacturing gener
ally. It is the great lever that gives
vitality to a nation; it gives employ
ment to her sons, enables them to
make an honest living for themselves
and families, and puts money by
thousands into the pockets of the man
ufacturers.
When we see manufactories reared
on the various streams in this country,
whose dashing shoals are continually
saying to capital, come, and the mill
ions of cotton we send to foreign mar
kets manufactured at our doors, the
tons of iron turned into money, that
now lie imbedded in these hills, not
worth, in their present condition, the
pen we write with, we say when this
you see, you will see a country that
Georgia will be proud of. By all
means then let us do all in our power
to encourage those enterprises. Men
to go ahead, feeling that they will be
handsomely remunerated, and be a
lasting blessing to their country.

Adairsville, Jan. 24, 1872.
Messrs Editors :—Thinking prob
ably a few lines from this ancient
“ burg” would be interesting to some
of your: readers, I deem it not im
prudent to write you a few lines,
which I hope will fully meet your ap
probation, though I don’t profess to
be a “ writist.”
Times are dull and money scarce,
with a fair prospect to continue so un
til anew crop is made. The prospect
for anew county, with this place as
county seat, gave everything an up
ward tendency, but since the defeat
of the “ county bill” at the recent sit
ting of the Legislature, everything
has assumed the gloomy appearance
of “ long ago.”
The “Adairsville High School”
with Prof. Miiburn at its mast head,
assisted by Miss Hattie Fitten, is in
full blast, with about fifty students.
The musical department is presided
over by Miss Mit McKinley, an intel
ligent, accomplished and beautiful
young lady from Newnan, Ga. Miss
McKinley is also instructress in
French. No country appreciates a
good school more than this. There is
nothing so important as teaching the
young idea how to shoot.
A flourishing Lodge of Good Tem
plars has been organized, and is gain.
meetings are made pleasant by the
bright eyes and lovely laces of quite a
number of Adairsviile’s fairest daugh
ters. Prof. Milbum fills the chair of
G. W. C. T. with credit to himself and
constituents. The bar-rooms are drap
ed in mourning, and the “ boys have
quit going down town of nights.”
Nothing but good can come of such
an enterprise. Long may it prosper.
The citizens are wide awake to their
“ church interests,” and ministers of
the Gospel are made.happy by large
congregations and good “ chicken din
ners,” almost good enough for a hun
gry editor.
Mr. and Mrs. Pratt gave a musical
entertainment last night at Martin’s
Hall to a large and appreciative audi
ence. Half the proceeds of the even
ing was given to the Sabbath School.
They richly deserve the patronage be
stowed on them by an appreciative
public.
Farmers are going ahead preparing
their land for crops the coming sea
son, which it is hoped will be favora
ble, as the country needs it.
The community is alarmingly
healthy.
For fear of taxing the patience of
your good readers, I desist, promising
you “ more anon.”
Respectfully,
Medicus.
THE GREAT WESTERN CANAL.
Messrs. Editors : It appears that
the people of Macon are looking at
the Canal question with some degree
of interest, and why shall not we? Os
course we shall not be benefited to
the same extent, yet we shall feel the
effects of it when completed in no
small degree, and even from its com
mencement it would infuse new life
and vigor throughout our community
and throughout the entire line of the
improvement.
But we hear it spoken of frequently
as a matter of small importance; and
as not at all probable such a work
would be undertaken, or if underta
en would never be completed, as a
work that there is no necessity for,
as though there was ample outlet for
all the productions of the whole of
the northwestern States. But this
arises from the want of consideration
of the disadvantages of the people cf
that section are laboring under. In
order that we may duly appreciate
the importance of this proposed canal,
let us look at some of their disadvan
tages. And first I would say that St.
Louis, Mo., being the great central
point of trade for the West as New
York is at the East, and to this point
most improvements appear to be di
rected, now as well as in the past.
Let us then look at her wants, in or
der that we may approximate in
some degree the wants of the north
western section of our country.
St. Louis then is situated 700 miles
(by air-line) from New York and the
distance considerably increased by
the most direct railroad ; but the
greater part of her eastward freight
seeks cheaper freight than the rail
roads can afford. Water carriage is
what is wanted. Many think the
Mississippi River furnishes all the
necessary outlet not only for St. Louis,
but for all the northwestern section.
But St. Louis is full 1200 miles from
New Orleans, and New Orleans is
more than 1800 miles from New
York, making more than 3000 miles
from St. Louis to New York, by the
Mississippi and Gulf route, a distance
about the same to England and vastly
more dangerous. The charges and
insurance, I presume, are about
double what they are from New
York to Liverpool, the passage
around the rocks and reefs of the
capes of Florida is considered among
the most dangerous on the globe, anci
the Mississippi itself is one of the
most dangerous rivers in the United
States for navigation. Now, in view
of these facts, St. Louis sends much
of her trade northward, by the lakes
and Erie Canal. Let us examine this
route, or these routes, for there are
several routes to the lakes, and first
we will look at the Waubash Canal
route.
From St. Louis down by Cairo, and
up the Ohio to Evansville, 373 miles
by steamboat, and there tranship to
canal boat and thence to Toledo 476
miles by canal, from Toledo to Buf
falo 252 miles by lake, from Buffalo
by Erie canal 350 miles to Albany or
West Troy, and from West Troy 151
miles to New York, making 1601.
We will now look at the Miami
canal route. From St. Louis, by riv
er, 697 miles to Cincinnati; thence,
by canal, 266 miles to Toledo; thence
by Lake Erie Canal and Hudson
river, as before, 753 miles to New
York, making 1716 miles. Next look
at the Ohio canal route. From St.
Louis by river 811 miles to Ports
mouth, and by canal 307 miles to
Cleveland, thence by lake 194 miles
to Buffalo, and by Erie canal and
Hudson river as before 501 miles to
New York, making 1813 miles.
St. Louis has still one more route of
water carriage, viz: by river to Graf
ton 41 miles, from Grafton to Peru
by Illinois River 274 miles, and from
Peru to Chicago 102 miles, thence
1042 miles by lake to Buffalo, and
thence by Erie canal and Hudson
river 501 miles to New York, and
making 1960 miles.
These five routes by water carriage
St. Louis and the Northwest have as
an outlet to market, and none others
or none better. It is true there is
water carriage through Canada, but I
suppose none will tell us that this is
better —down the St. Lawrence.
In a future number we shall en
deavor to examine some further into
the disadvantages of that section, and
see if this contemplated canal would
not relieve their wants very much,
and justify all the necessary expendi
ture to open this new channel of
trade for the northwest, irrespective
of the advantages to our own State.
A Georgian.
Democratic Governor.—Virgin
ia, Georgia, Alabama and Kentucky,
are the only Southern States that
have Democratic Governors.
The Washington Republican says
“ Loyalty,” before the war, “ had ve
ry little hold upon the Southern na
ture.” Perhaps it had, but since the
war it has had a hold upon a vast
amount of Southern plunder.— Courier -
Journal.
~ The Columbus Enquirer says: The
Chinese are running away from Cali
fornia by shipload, on account of per
secution for their race and color by
the whites of that State. A dispatch
from San Francisco, of the Ist inst.,
says that the steamer America on that
day took 700 of them to return to Chi
na. Is not California a better field for
the execution of the Ku-Klux law
than South Carolina?
The Lessees of the State Road con
tinue to pay the monthly rental of
$25,000 promptly and regularly. It
is our opinion that the State has made
a good lease, and that it should not
be interfered with, unless competing
companies can show it was fraudu
lently obtained by disregarding their
rights. —Oolumbus Enquirer.
Tremendous Traffic.— The State
Road at this time commands an im
mense amount of shipping. It has
thirteen daily freight schedules, and
frequently four or five trains on
one schedule. The noise of
one train has scarcely ceased when
the track begins to vibrate with the
weight of another train. In such a
complication of schedules public safe
ty demands a double track. The
present unfavorable weather retards
shipments and occasions much delay.
