Sinking Slowly. Diseases that progress rapidly to a crisis are not the only ones to be dreaded. Canker ordry rot docs not blast a tree as suddenly ns a stroke of lightning, but unless arrested it destroys it as certainly: und 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, if not checked 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 thev should he promptly met by tonic treatment. The best in vlgorant and exhilerant that can lie adminis tered in a case of this kimi is Hostetter’s Stom ach Bitters. The stimulating principle of tho preparation rouses the dormant energies of the system, and the strengthening and regulating properties give a permanent and healthful im pulse to the vita! forces thus brought into play. The tailing appetite is re-awakened, the process of digestion and assimilation is quickened, the quality of the blood is improved, the secre tions iieeomo more natural, and every organ that contributes to the nourishment of ihe body undergoes salutary change. By these means the repair of the physical structure is effected and its health and vigor restored. In no class of diseases lias the beneficent operation of the Bitters been more marked and striking than in those characterized by general debility and nervous prostration.

From that time to this, it lias nev er hail a rival in tho 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 a horse Liniment. The Mothers of America know its value, and apply it promptly to the external in juries of the “ rising generation,” and in fact there is not a city or township in the United States where the Mustang Liniment is not re garded by both sexes and every class, as a blessing to the community. Old prejudices are dying out. New facts are killing them. The idea that invalids weaken ed by disease can he relieved by prostrating them with destructive drugs is no longer en tertained except by monomaniacs. Ever since the introduction of Dr. Walker’s Vinegar Bitters it has been obvious that their regulat ing and invigorating properties are all-suffi cient for the cure of chronic indigestion, rheu matism, constipation, diarrluea, nervous affec tions, and malarious fevers, and they are now the standard remedy for these complaints in every section of the Union.

It will be seen from a call, by onler of the President of the Central Chen/- kee Agricultural Association, that the stockholders are requested to meet, in this place, on Saturday next, for the purjtose of electing new officers for the present year. I-ict all parts of the county lie rep resented on this occasion; not only those who are now stock holders, but those who intend to become stock holders. Remember the shares have been reduced to $lO each, so that all who wish may take a share. It is important that there should be a full meeting of the citizens of Bartow county, so that all parts of the county may have a voice in the selection of officers. It is very desirable, in or der to build up the agricultural and mechanical interests of old Bartow, that our people should work in har mony—all pull together—shoulder to shoulder. Let there be no sectional strife between us, especially in mat ters in which every true citizen has an interest; to-wit: the development of the material resources of our coun ty and section. No section of the South presents a more inviting field for labor and capital, than Bartow county ; with her broad acres of fer tile lands, susceptible of supporting three-fold her present population, in agricultural pursuits, and ten-fold in mechanical pursuits, besides her vast mineral deposites of untold wealth her unrivalled water powers, pure, invigorating water und atmosphere, and a dimate unsurpassed for sulubri ty on the globe. With all these ad vantages, now being read and known of the whole civilized world, the eyes of the same are being turned towards our highly favored county and sec tion. This vast, inviting field must and will be occupied by somebody.— Will we have the ehosing and select ion of the occupants, while we may, or will we wait until they are forced upon our lands from necessity. We can now invite into our midst such a class of occupants as will secure good society for all time to come; or we can wait, as we have been doing, for sulventurers and speculators to buy up our lands, under administrators’ and sheriffs’ hammers, and thrust upon us a population for whom we have no affinity. Through the instrumentality of ag ricultural associations and fairs, good and enterprising men, at home and abroad, will be attracted to a section or locality, where producer vies with producer in the products of the soil, and mechanic with mechanic in his manufactures, thereby developing to the eye of the spectator, such results as will fix and settle him in his deter mination to become a rival in the race. Show us a community fully alive to the development of their re sources, and we will guarantee that it is a happy and prosperous one. Pro vidence has placed within our reach abundant resources to make us a great and prosperous people, if we are too indolent to develop them He will not smile upon us. - • A fine lot of corn-field Peas for sale at Isham Alley’s Store.

Those who wish to buy bargains in either or all of the above named lines of Goods, would do well, at least, to call and examine their goods and prices be fore purchasing elsewhere. A look will guarantee sales. Our schools are all doing well, we are glad to learn. The Misses Moon & Safford, Cartersvilie Female Semi nary, have fifty pupils and upwards ; Messrs. Scudder & Johnston, Carters ville Male and Female Collegiate In stitute, have about as many. There are several smaller ones numbering from fifteen up to thirty scholars.— The two first have led off and become fixed facts, in our town; the foun dations upon which is being erected two institutions of learning, one for male and the other for female educa tion, worthy of our progressive and intelligent commnity. And why may we not have as good schools in Car tersville as anywhere else in Georgia? Our teachers are as competent, and the necessity for good schools as great as elsewhere. Let the price of tui tion be made uniform, and let all our citizens agree to bestow their patron age upon them. In union there is strength. We are too much divided on all matters pertaining to the well fare of our growing and prosperous town, to be entirely successful in any of our undertakings to advance her interests. Let there be a giving way of prejudices, and a greater effort made by all to unite our people in the bonds of a common brotherhood. Let the past be buried and forgotten, and let criminination and recrimination cease, so that the stranger who comes into our midst may be made to ex claim : “See how these people agree!” TAX NOTICE.

Mr. J was one of our most enterprising and useful citizens. In his death our com munity has sustained a lots that is ir reparable.

While we weep with, and tender to his grief-stricken and bereaved fami ly our heartfelt condole nee, we weep not as those without hope. When he joined the church, he had his little children dedicated to God in holy baptism, his wife already being a member; and while he, with his fam ily, received the emblems of Christ’s broken body and shed blood, he doubt less, remembered the Saviour’sprom ise to his disciples on the night of His betrayal, that “they should drink it | anew with Him in His Father’s King, j dom,” which promise, he has, we be-1 lieve, ere this, realized in all its full ness. He is gone from our midst, and left his dear ones behind to follow af ter him—part of his family have crossed the flood, and part are cross ing now. His remains will be interred in the town cemetery, after the funeral ser vices at the Presbyterian Church at 11 o’ cl ock, to-day, (Thursday), with Masonic honors.

Atlantic & Great YVkstrkn Canal Survey Engineer’s Camp on Yellow uivek, Near BU88el!s Mill, Feb. 3, 1872. Cot. B. \V. Froble , State Engineer and Superintendent Public Works: Dear Sir: In my note of 22d Decern her, it was stated that the Engineer Camp was at Sheltonville, and that up to that time the survey had devel oped a feasible line for the route of the Great Canal project. As stated then, 1 anticipated that the greatest obstacles had been over come. We had not crossed the Chattahoochee, but expected to effect a crossing in a few days, in the vicin ity of Hutchins’ Ferry. It was also intimated that you should be more fully informed as to our operations when we reached the waters of the Ocmulgee. Having now the infor mation desired, I proceed to give it to you as briefly as possible: On the 10th day of November last, this survey was commenced at the mouth of Owl Creek, on the Etowah River. On the 23d of January we crossed the Peachtree Ridge, at the depression known as the “Big Pop lar,” near the residence of John Born, and immediately where Patrick O’Borke lives. We have now pro gressed far enough to define the entire line in Georgia, as it has been devel oped. Beginning at Owl Creek, it follows the Etowah River to the mouth of Little River in Cherokee County. Thence up Little River to the mouth of Merritt’s (or Rockey) Creek, as it is named on the State maps. Thence up Merritt’s Creek to the main ridge at Mrs. Alberson’s, in Milton county. Thence to the waters of Chattahoochee on Fauquilla (Fore killer) Creek. Thence down Fau quilla Creek and across Vickory’s Creek near the mouth of Long Indian Creek. Thence up Long Indian Creek to and through a gap in the ridge between it and John’s Creek. Thence up John’s Creek, crossing it at A. T. Abbott’s mill. Thence across the ridge dividing John’s Creek from the Chattahoochee, near Mrs. Taylor’s. Thence up the slope, proper, of the Chattahoochee, crossing Dick’s Creek between Hutchins’ and Moor’s mills, sixty-eight feet above the surface of water; and thence to the crossing of the Chattahoochee River, 1,200 feet above Terry’s Ferry, and at a elevation of 1,175 feet above surface of water, with favorable approcahes, particulary that upon the west bank. The line then passes very directly to the waters of Level Creek, crossing the same at a favor able point near Hope Brogden’s. Thence by Level Creek Church to the waters of Brushy Creek, in the vicin ity of the Atlanta and Richmond Air Line Railway. Crossing 20 feet below the grade of said road about 2,000 feet northeast of Suwanee Station, the line has reached the waters of Su wanee Creek, and passes up the wes tern slope until we reach a favorable crossing about one mile above the mouth of Ivy Creek. Thence down Suwanee, turning the spur of dividing ridge and up the west bank of Ivy Creek to a favorable crossing. Thence to the crossing of Peachtree ridge at the “ Big Popular.” Cutting sixty- seven feet at the summit, we pass to the gentle slope of “ Ague Creek,” and continue down it two miles to the still more gentle declivity of Yellow River. Passing within two miles of Lawrenceville, we reach our present encampment near Russel’s mill, on and near thejmouth of Pew’s Creek. From hence to Macon we can conceive of no difficulty that cannot be easily overcome. In the meantime we have not omit ted to examine for the source of the principal feeder from which the summit level is to be fed with an abundant supply of water. At a point about eight miles above Gaines ville we found the water level of the Chattahoochee about eight feet above the summit level of the canal. From this information, and a correct idea of the average fall of the river in this vicinity, we are enable to approximate pretty nearly to the source. The distance or length of feeder will not exceed forty miles, nor will the cost be greater than a million of dollars. This will give a constant and abundant supply, and will doubtless be regarded as very favorable. The source of feeder will be found at or near that point, where Hagin’s and Allen’s Creek enter the Chatta hoochee. This point will be found about twelve miles above Gainsville, and in Hall county. An approximate estimate has been prepared, with appropriate maps, profiles, cross sections of plans, etc., and forwarded to Major Walter McFarland, the Engineer-in-Chief of the entire line. Is it feasible? is a very natural question. I can answer emphatically that it is, and that within the limits of a reasonable expenditure. Very respectfully, your obedient servent, R. C. McCalla, Engineer in Charge of Survey.

A Nuisance.— There arises from the heap? of guano, at the depot, a stench which is too intolerable for sensitive olfactories to bear, or sensi ble people to endure, if they could help it; and it is to be hoped that some steps will be immediately taken to break up the roost. If guano is a remedy for poor land, we would like to know what is the remedy for gu ano ? O cannot something be done to relieve our suffering community from this horrible smell! The compound is called “ pacific,” we believe, but that is a misnomer, for such is not its effect! Please take it away! bury it! throw lime on it, “ Darby’s Prophy lactic Fluid,” wood and fire, or any thing in the world to neutralize or de stroy it! We don’t want it on our land nor in our air, and we beg those who have ordered it to come some night and take it away, for it is rap idly losing its odor, and its virtue (?) and we are as rapidly losing our “pa cific” temper and patience! Correction. —The Atlanta Sun has had some fun at our expense, we learn, because we happened to say that Bullock’s farm and bam is in Cherokee county. It was certainly a lapsus calami, and we stand corrected and beg the Sun’s pardon. Let your light shine, O brilliant luminary, but don’t let your fearful “ Strokes” fall too heavily upon our devoted head! A Youtheul Inebriate. —We saw on the streets, on last Saturday, a lad, about ten years old, who was so drunk that he was scarcely able to walk. Such a scene is painful to be hold in a Christian community; and it is to be hoped that parents and others will be caretul not to allow such a sight to be witnessed again. Any man who would give or sell such a child intoxicating liquor, ought to be punished for the act by the law. And a little good talk given to the youth ful transgressor, and perhaps a little limber wood, might save him from a life of shame and a drunkard’s grave. Our Brass Band.— We are happy to inform the public “in general,” and the LaGrange Reporter in par ticular, that our brass band is now in full blast, and is ready to toot, when ever there is a call for music, within a reasonable distance of our fortunate town. We suppose the b’hoys would not seriously object to paying the lit tle village of LaGrange a visit some time before long, and favoring its cit izens with a specimen of their musi cal ability, as “ Music hath power to charm the savage ear.” Cruelty to Animals.—A con temporary urges the formation of so cieties in Georgia, for the prevention of cruelty to animals; and wants the Legislature to enact a law upon the subject. This savors to much of puri tan ism to suit our taste, and we regard the remedy proposed for the evil, as altogether impracticable. Flagrant acts of cruelty might in some instan ces be punished by law, and should be, but thousands of cases would be unknown and unnoticed by the pub lic authorities. Such acts are matters of conscience, and should be regulated not by legal enactments, but by a dif ferent code—a code to be found in the word of God, and taught by the pul pit, the press, around the fireside and in the sabbath school. If good mor als are properly inculcated in the youths of the country, instances of cruelty to the poor dumb brutes will be of rare occurrence. Let the minds of the children be impressed with the truth, that only the merciful shall ob tain mercy and that “ The angel of mercy hath no tear to shed when a cruel man is damned;” and thus edu cated, and with hearts full of tender ness and sympathy for all God’s help less creatures, they will even forbear, needlessly to “ set foot upon a worm.” Apart from considerations of human ity, it seems to us that the motive of self-interest would be sufficient to re strain those who are owners of domes tic animals, and prevent them from treating their own property in a man ner to injure it. We are inclined to think, then, that conscience on the one hand, and self-interest on the other, are, or ought to be, sufficient safe guards for the protection of animals, in a great majority of cases, without the interference of civil law.

We hope our citizens will awake to the importance of fire organizations. We should have one engine and a good hook and ladder company.

True happiness is seldom found on earth. That, like true friendship, is a thing most rare. The first without contentment has no birth. And friendship dies. ifenvy claims a share; And yet if we would ruiste our mind above The petty cares, that vex and trouble here. And be content to seek “ the perfect love,” Which casteth out from every soul a fear. Then, we would know that even here below, There is some happiness for all who find “ The pearl of greater price,” which will be stow Forbearance, love and peace to all mankind. ’Tis thus we should secure a happy heart.
