Sinking Slowly.
Diseases that progress rapidly to a crisis are
not the only ones to be dreaded. Canker or dry
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 witli the swiftness or
yellow fever, is as sure to sap the springs of life
eventually as any acute disease, it not checked
by invigorating medication. There is something
inexpressibly touching in the spectacle of pre
mature decay, l anguor, pallor, emaciation,
depression of spirits, and a distaste for exertion
aie its ordinary symptoms, and they should bo
promptly met by tonic treatment. The best in
vigorant and exhflerant that can bo adminis
tered in a cuseof this kind is Hostettcr’s Stom
ach Bitters. The stimulating principle of the
preparation rouses the dormant energies of the
system, and the strengthening ami regulating
properties give n permanent and healthful im
pulse to the vital forces thus brought into play.
Tlie tailing appetite is re-awakened, the process
of digestion and assimilation is quickened,
the quality of the blood is improved, the secre
tions become more natural, and every organ
ttiat contributes to the nourishment of the 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 has the beneficent-operation of the
Bitters been more marked and striking than in
those characterized by general debility and
nervous prostration. I.allies affected witn these
ailments iind 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 or “clouds of wltnoiscs
A Stable Institution.—Just tit the period
wlion nlI Wabbi-ißcn were complaining that the
horse-ointments of the day worn uindnW* rcias
dtes. tin' Muntano Linimkst made its entree in
Missouri, without any nourish of trumpets, and
witliiu one year, bocanie the favorite embroca
tion for the external disto in tiers and injuries of
horses and rattle in all the western and South
ern states, from that lime 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
ami 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, aud 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 Mvstasg Liniment is not re
garded by both sexes and every class, as a
blessing to the community.
Old prejudices are dying out. Sew facts are
killing them. The idea that invalids weaken
ed liy disease can be relieved by prostrating
them with destructive drugs is no-longer en
tertained except by monomaniacs. Ever since
the introduction of Dll. Walker's Yiskuak
Bittkrs it has been obvious that their regulat
ing and invigorating properties arc all-sufli
cient for the cure of chrouic indigestion, rheu
matism, constipation, diarrhiea. nervous affec
tions, and malarious l'evcrs, and they are now
the standard remedy for these complaints in
every section of the'Union. Feb. 15—lw.
A Triumph.
No medicine ever offered to the people lias
won for itself such a reputation in so short a
time, as DU. TUTT’S EXPECTORANT. Wher
ever it has been introduced, it has superscedcd
all other Cough remedies. It not only cures the
Cough, but so thoroughly purities the Lungs,
that no fears of its return need be apprehended.

The History of a Nation*! Remedy.—
Mere is the history of the most webrated tonic
oftheageina nutshell. In it was an
nounced that a certain combination of vegeta
ble ingri lieuts, with a pure diffusive stimulant
was work lug wonders in the cure of chrouic
dyspepsia nervous debility, liver complaint,
periodica’ fevers, rheumatism and constitu
tional >,eakuess. The unpretending name
given to the specific was Plantation Ritters.
The statement attracted the attention of inva
lids everywhere. The new remedy received
a fair trial, ami tho results more than confirin
med all that had been said in its praise.
Thenceforward it was a grant] success. The
• business columns of the press spread the glo
rious news far and wide, and the martyrs to
indigestion, biliousness, physical prostration
aaif premature decay, as it by common consent,
sought relioi lrom the new vegetable restora
tive. They found tthol they tuuyht. From that
time to the present the increase in the demand
for Plantation Hitters lias been one of the most
striking events in this age.

WILL. Ml CARLKTON’S GREAT PO
EM.— The finest poem yet written by that
young and brilliant genius, WILL. M. U AULE
TON, q •• THE BURNING OF CHICAGO,”
■written for and published in “ OUR FIRE
SIDE FRIEND,” the new and attractive lit
erary and family journal published by WA
TERS, EBERTS A CO., 133 State Street, Chi
cago.
The poem is in Mr. Carleton’s bC6t vein;
beautiful in thought, grand in conception,
graphic in expression, and sustained through
out. Tne enterprising publishers were fortu
nate in securing this contribution from the au
thor. In this connection we may say that the
new paper will doubtless speedily become a
prime favorite with the masses of the reading
public. It is an eight page illustrated, literary'
and family weekly, containing a large amount
of interesting and useful reading matter. The
publishers are evidently determined to make a
first eluss paper, and secure for it a very large
circulation. They intend to give to their sub
scribers for 1872, One hundred thousand dollars
in premiumt,, to be distributed upon anew and
novel plan. Specimen copies of the paper, to

Central Chofnkee Ga. Agricultural
Association—Reorgan izAt i on.
Agreeable to a call of the Execu

I koe Georgia Agricultural Association,
the stockholders of said Association
[ inet in the Courthouse, in this place,
on Saturday morning last, for the
purpose of reorganization for the pre
sent year.
President Johnson in the chair,
and Secretary Peacock at the desk.
The annual report of the Secretary
and Treasurer was read and adopted-
On motion, it was ordered, That
John W. WoflTord, attorney for the
association, proceed forthwith to the
collection of each shareholder’s un
paid stock, to the amount called for
up to the present time, which is three
fourths—or seventy-five per cent, of
the amount subscribed.
The association then proceeded, by
ballot, to the election of officers for
the present year, which resulted as
follows:
F<xr President. —Col Alxla Johnson.
For Secretary. —Francis Fontaine.
For Treasurer.— D. W. K. Peacock.
Hctcvtive Committee /or the Associa
tion al 1 siege. —S. W. Leland, S. F.
Stephens, J. G. Lowry, Francis Fon
taine, and D. W. K. Peacock.

Cartersville. —It. M. Stiles.
Allatoona. —Elliott Moore.
Etowah. —Mark A. Cooper.
Wolf-Pen. —B. G. Poole.
Pine-Log. —A. J. Weems.
Sixth. —James W. Lewis.
The latter committee is to co-ope
rate with the former in their respect
ive Districts, and to meet with the
former whenever convenient so to do.
The former committee constitute a
quorum for the transaction of busi
ness, ora majority of them.
D. W. K. Peacock, J. J. Howard,
W. W. Leak, and Francis Fontaine,
were appointed a committee to get
up and publish a Premium List at an
early day.
The meeting then adjourned sub
ject to the call of the President.
The meeting was entirely harmo
nious, and was honored by a brief and
spirited address from Major Mark A.
Coojier, on the subject of Lime as a
fertilizer, in which he took occasion
to pledge his hearty co-operation, in
sofar as his District was concerned*
in advancing the objects of the asso
ciation.
The sum of eight thousand dollars
lias already been expened on the fair
grounds, and the association still owes
about twenty-four hundred dollars,
which amount is uncollected in the
hands of stockholders; therefore the
necessity for their coming forward
and paying up their shares in order
to liquidate this claim, and free the
property from all encumberances.
With such an able and active Board
of Directors, as the above, the Central
Cherokee Georgia Agricultural Asso
ciation is bouud to bo not only a suc
cess, hut a grand success !
Let the citizens of Bartow County
now go to work in good earnest, and
with reference to the development of
her resources, and our Fair in Octo
ber next will present a scene pleasant
to look upon, and will make the
hearts of all her citizens pulsate with
sentiments of pride that the lines have
fallen to them in such a place as Bar
tow County, Ga. Let every citizen,
both male and female, resolve to car
ry something to the fair this fall.
Francis ('ora’s steam saw mill,
and slunglo and lathe mills, near
Taylorsville on the Cherokee Rail-
Road, were all consumed by fire, on

- —»
We expect to canvass every nook
and comer of Bartow County, in be
half of the Standard A Express,
with the view of extending its circu
lation, as soon as the weather settles
so that we can get about. We want,
and must have, if wo can get them,
two thousand subscribers in this coun
ty alone by harvest. In addition to
this, we are prepared to do all kinds
of Job Work, plain and fancy, in col
ors, if desired, as neatly and prompt
ly, and as cheap, as it can be done
elsewhere in the State. We have re
cently supplied our office with now
cylinder and job presses, of the latest
improved styles, new type, the finest
brands of inks plain and colored, new
lot of printers’ stationery and furni
ture, and, besides all this, we have
one of the best job printers in the
State to superintend the work. We
want to do all the job printing and
book work for the citizens of Bartow
county. As an advertising medium,
the Standard AJExpress, for size
ami circulation, is not surpassed by
any country weekly in North Geor
gia, if in the State. The paper speaks
for itself in these particulars. We
have an already large, daily increas
ing subscription list, and expect to
double it between this and the har
vest season. So look out for us, citi
zens of Bartow Comity, and have your
two dollars in greenbacks ready to
pay for one year’s subscription by the
time we call around.
Will not our friends, all over the
county, trouble themselves a little,
by writing and sending us any inci
dents of interest which may occur in
their respective communities; and
drop us any practical ideas touching
the welfare of all branches of industry
and domestic economy, and thcvbesf
methods to be adopted in developing
our resources, suggested to their
minds, for publication, and then urge
all their neighbors to subscribe for
our paper, in order that they may de
rive the benefits of said practical sug
gestions?
See Prospectus of the Monroe Ad
vertiser, published at Forsyth, Go.,
by James P. Harrison, at $2 per an
num. This is one of the very hand
somest and best country weeklies in
the State. We are always glad to
see its neat and tidy face in our sauc
tum.
Redwine & Fox Atlanta.—Per
haps there is no firm in Georgia more
widely known than that of Redwine
A Fox, of the “ Live Drug Store.”
In the past few years, they have
developed a large business by close
attention and fair dealing. They
have been compelled, by the increa
sing demands of their business, to
secure the store next to them, and
throw both into one. The double
store is fitted up in magnificent style
and filled up with a large stock of
fresh drugs, medicines, paints, oils,
perfumery, etc.
I lom k I x gust ttY.-We are uni! i nch-
Ing advocates of homo enterprises and
patronage. We don’t believe in this
way our home people have got of run
ning off to some foreign market after
every thing they want to buy or have
made, and leave our owu merchants
and mechanics to suffer and pine for
lack of patronage. The prosperity of
Cartersville is the Individual prosper
ity of each and all of her citizens, and
her downfall Is their downfall, in a
jiecuniary point of view’. What is it
tliat builds up a place but its trade ?
Give a locality a liberal trade, and
we will insure you a lively place as
the resultof the trade; withhold trade
from a locality and a barren locality
it will remain, we care not what oth
er advantages it may possess. Trade
to a town is wliat steam is to an en
gine—the propelling power. Show’
us a community that habitually go
from home to do their trading, and
we will guarantee that that commu
nity is both ignorant and indolent.—
On the contrary, show as a commu
nity that patronize their own mer
chants and mechanics, and we will
insure that its apothecary shops will
grow into drug houses; its black
smith and wood shops will swell into
foundries, machine works, carriage
and wagon manufactories and reposi
tories ; its grist into merchant mills;
its carding machines into wool and
cotton factories ; its log school houses
into academies and colleges; its skel
eton chapels into finished edifices; its
log huts into handsome and comfort
able residences ; its bald and gullied
lands into fields of smiling plenty;
and its slip-shod, poverty-stricken
people into competency and affluence;
and every other branch of honest in
dustry will lie advanced proportion
ately ; from all of which w ill spring
a goodly heritage of peace and plenty.
What more should we want—what
less should wee crave.
Look at the South w ith her slum
bering mountains of minerals, paying
tribute to Pittsburg ; with tier vast,
unbroken forests of timber, pouring
out her sweat-earned treasure into tlie
lap of Northern and Western manu
facturers of agricultural implements,
and nearly everything else made of
wood; with her numerous and un
surpassed waiter powers and vast cot
ton fields, paying homage at the shrine
of Lowell. Look at Georgia, the Em
pire State of the South, and, ought to
be, the paradise of the globe, (sum
ming up her reeources and climate as
a test), resting on her haunches and
waiting for an ingress of foreign cap
ital to do for her what she is not will
ing to do for herself. Look at Bar
tow county, the Empire county of the
Empire State, with her inexhausta
ble quarries of lime rock, sending off
to the seaboard after her fertilizers.
Look at Cartersville, the pride of the
Etowah Valley, depending alone on
Providence and the Insurance com
panies for protection against fire, and
unable to give her citizens employ
ment, by tlie erection of a cotton fac
tory, when one-half of the money ne
cessary to build it is pledged in for
egin capital, and half of the remain
ing half pledged by her own mechan
ics ; prefering rather to buy her cot
ton on speculation, and send her mon
ey off to Augusta, Macon, Columbus,
or even Lowell, for domestics, there
by enriching those who are laboring
to enrich themselves, leaving our own
laboring citizens pining for labour, to
suck their paws for subsistance or
starve, and then wonder why money
matters are so tight. Consistency,
thou art a jewell!
In conclusion, let us exhort one and
all of the citizens of Cartersville, King
ston, Adairsville, and Bartow county
generally, to patronize home indus
try ; therefore if you want to subscribe
for a large, handsome w’eekly Family
Newspaper, let us recommend to you
the Standard & Express as the
one to fill the bill. If you want nice
Job Work or Advertising done at low
figures, this is the place to come.
We invite attention to the profes
sional card of our talented young
friend and fellow-citizen, John L.
Moon, who has just graduated at a
law school, and returned home to de
vote his attention and expend his la
bor in the practice of his profession.
Johnny is a sober, steady young
man, and will, doubtless, take a high
position among his brethren of the le
gal fraternity. We commend him to
the favorable consideration and pat
ronage of our readers and people.
New Firm.—Erwin, Stokely &
Co.—lt will be seen, by reference to
our advertising columns, that the old
firm of Stokely Williams have re
ceived into their association in busi
ness, Mr. John A. Erwin, formerly
of the reliable old firm of Howard
& Erwin, and the new firm will, in
future, be known and distinguished
as Erwin, Stokely & Cos., which
firm will continue the Dry-Goods bu
siness, in all its branches, at the brick
corner of Stokely & Williams. This
is now one of the strongest and most
reliable firms in North Georgia, com

Mr. Erwin will soon go on to market,
and will bring back one of the larg

P. H. BREWSTER, Local Editor
A VISIT TO “ TRIUKtM."
We spent a portion of last week
very pleasantly at the above named
place, and in the country surrounding.
“ Trickum” is situated in the South
ern portion of Cherokee county, 24
miles from this place, 10 from Mari
etta, 12 from Canton, and 10 from Ros
well. It is a very pleasant little vil
lage, and is surrounded by an intelli
gent, religious and thrifty communi
ty. There is at “ Trickum” the finest
church and academy, perhaps, to lie
found in the country. We liad the
pleasure of visiting the school, which
is large, and composed of youths of
both sexes. It is under the manage-
ment of Col. V. M. White, an accom
plished gentleman and scholar, who
Ls assisted by his sister, Miss White.
The upper story of the academy build
ing is used as a masonic lodge. Lit
tle River Camp-Ground is another
feature of “ Trickum,” and is a popu
lar place of resort at a certain season.
Enon Baptist church, not far away, is
also a large and handsome edifice, and
is a great power in the land for good.
Such lacts as we have given above, are
far better evidences of refinement and
prosperity, W’e think, than any num
ber of liquor-shops and still-houses
would be. There are none of the lat
ter institutions in that part of the
country, and the people are none the
worse off on account of tlieir absence.
The Standard & Express is also
very popular among those people, es
pecially the women and children , and
we regard tills as another unmistaka
ble sign of intelligence, good taste and
refinement. A considerable amount of
goods are sold at “ Trickum,” by our
clever old friend, Maj. T. D. Evans,
who consents to act as agent for our
paper. He is well known all over the
country, sees a great many people,
and we expect him to secure us a large
number of subscribers. Our genial
friend, Dr. D. H. Payne, hasaLso been
a citizen of the town ever since it was
a small place, and has enjoyed many
a hearty laugh, and given many a
pill in that time. And our gifted
friend, the Rev. M. Puckett, the
teacher , preacher, poet and artist is a
resident of “ Trickum,” but expects
soon to remove to Canton with a view
of becoming an editor also. We wish
him great success in all his undertak
ing. We might make honorable men
tion of many other names with which
we are familiar, but we forbear at
present.
On our way to “ Trickum,” wesaw
for the first time, tlie celebrated Bul
lock barn , the house which has become
almost as famous as the one “ that
Jack built.” It is indeed a mammoth
concern and is one of the monuments
of the builder’s shame and rascality.
As we viewed its collossal proportions,
the couplet of Byron occurred to us,
“ Shrine of the mighty can it be
That this is all remains of thee ?”
liu/ics was “ a man, and take him
for all in all, w’e ne’er shall look upon
his like again,” it is to be hoped. His
wife we learn, has paid off the debts
against the farm and barn, and is
mistress of the situation. A half a
dozen, or more two horse plows were
at work on the farm as we passed,
and we suppose Mrs. Bullock will
make it pay if she can.
To Our Friends in Cherokee
County. —We expect to be in atten
dance at the March Term of the Su.
perior Court of Cherokee county, and
will be glad to give all our old sub
scribers in that county an opportunity
to renew’ their subscriptions to the
Standard & Express, and will take
pleasure in receiving the names of as
many new’ ones as shall feel disposed
to patronize us, by taking one of the
largest and best family newspapers in
the South. Some of our friends have
intimated that they will continue to
take our paper, provided we will re
duce the price. This we cannot do,
and make a living at the business;
and w r e should not be expected to pub
lish a paper at a sacrifice. We pro
pose to give our subscribers a fair
equivalent for their money, but if any
do not think so, they are not compell
ed to make the exchange. It is our
intention to make our paper as inte
resting as w r c can, to all our readers,
and especially to those in Cherokee
county, and w’e will thankfully re
ceive from them and others, all the
help we can get.
That Guano “New Scents”
Again.— ln another column may be
found a communication from our wit
ty and talented correspondent, “ Ne
mo.” He handles us somewhat
roughly because we had the temerity
in a former issue to object to the
abomniable stench caused by the gu
ano deposit in the midst of our town.
If our remarks have given offence to
any one, we are sorry for it, but have
nothing to retract. When we penned
the article we did not suppose that
any one would seriously consider that
we had invaded his rights, or thrown
an obstacle in the way of business, or
that any body would cry out, “ Great
is Diana of the Ephesians!” We will
here say, once for all, that we are not
opposed to guano, per se, but like it
very well, so far as we know, in its
place, which is the ground. Put it
there and we haven’t another word to
say; but so long as it is kept where its
unearthly effluvia impregnates and
infests the air which we all have the
inalienable right to breathe, we shall
protest in the name of ourself and
■suffering humanity. Dead horses
would make good manure, but that
is no reason why they should be de
posited in the very centre of our town
We expect to use commercial fertili
zers ourself to some extent, provided
we plant a few acres in cotton ; but at
the same time we are uncompromiz
ingly opposed to them as a public
perfume. There should be a guano
depot established somewhere out side
of town, and let the article “ waste its
sweetness on the desert air.” This
is our position, and we have nothing
more to say.
That Cotton Planter and Guano
Distributor may be seen at the Car-
Factory. All who are interested in
labor-saving machines, would do well
to examine it and try it to their satis
faction. Orders for the machine, left
at this office will be filled, if received
in time. We will have none manu

The weather, to-day, the 20th, is
bright and fair, but how long it will
remain so, we have no means of know
ing, except what information we can
gather from the almanac , which is
thought by many to be very reliable
authority upon the subject. As the
almanac, or Horace Greeley would say
nowis the time for gardeners to plant
peas, sow potatoes and other early
vegetables; but our advice is, don’t
be in too great a hurry, unless you
have plenty of seeds to spare.

Washington, Feb. 17th.--The
majority and minority Ku-Klux re
ports are nearly ready. They agree
that nearly all the Southern States are
approaching financial ruin from bad
legislation and the Ku-Klux. One
report attributed the bad legislation
to the Ku-Klux, the other attributes
the Ku-Klux to bail legislation.
The Agricultural. Convention,
which has been in session here for the
past three days, attracts much atten

is not large, but it is able and influen
tial.
The South was represented in the
Agricultural Convention by Wade
Hampton, Gov. Patton, Burns, Mess.
Barnett, Norcross, J. M Sutlierlin,
H. F. Maynard, William*!! Bowman,
Aiken, Seale, Nicholson, Mann, Re
gister, Mttle, Bridges, KilbroA Mal
let, Mo non and others. Sectionalism
W’as ignored.
The Convention recommended a
more liberal appropriation to the ag
ricultural department, and increased
liberality to agricultural colleges.
Minor subjects were referred to

Goverrnor Smith’s proclamation
will be found in our advertising col
umns, revoking acting Governor
Conley’s appointment of Colonel Dan
iel S. Printup, the agent of Henry
Clews & Cos., as Receiver of the Cher
okee Railroad. His reasons for his
course are simply unanswerable. We
do not see liow’ he could have done
otherwise. It is undenied that the
$175,000 of bonds were issued before
the road w r as entitled to a bond under
the law. Clew’s, the holder of the
bonds, knew this, because he was
Treasurer of the company. The ille
gality is undoubted. And not even
the plea of innocent purchaser with
out notice can he used.
Under these facts, what w r as Gov
ernor Smith to do? Recognize an il
legality and a fraud? That certainly
would be unlawful. He could only
enforce the law. This he has done.
The parties have the courts to go to
for establishing their legal claims.
We most emphatically endorse and
commend the action of Governor
Smith.— Atlanta Constitution.
We invite attention to the Proclam
ation, to he found in another column
of this paper.
