DEXTER BEATEN!! AFTER BON

“ Dexter” became the property of Mr. Bonner,
the name of the renowned trotter has t> jen used
to a great extent in advertising the Ledger. But
“ Goldsmith’s Maid” has beaten Dexter’s time,
aud anew literary enterprise has just been
started in Chicago under auspices which indi
cate a determination on the part of the pro

field of journalism.
W ATEKS, EISEUTS & CO., 783 State St, Chi

stead of expending a hundred thousand dollars
in horse-flesh, they will distribute that amount
among their subscribers for 1872, in the way of
premiums. Their capital premium is *20.000
In United States Currency, it is manifested
that the enterprising publishers intend to se
cure an immence circulation for their paper
and .s no less probable that when such induce

On Thursday night last a difficulty
occurred in front of Oonyer’s Billiard
Haloon and Bar-Room, hi this place,
between John T. Crawford, non of
Col. R. A. Crawford, of Cartersville,
and Watkins, Conductor of a
freight train on the State Road, in
which the latter wits seriously, if not
fatally, wounded,, by a pistol shot in
the hands of the former, the ball en
tering the chest above the naval and
ranging upward, Crawford lying
on the ground when he fired the shot.
The exact lodgment of the hall has
not yet l>een fully ascertained, but it
is hoped that none of his intestines
have been severed. He has had the
very best medical attention and treat
ment at the hands of two of our most
efficient and worthy physicians, Drs.
Baker anti Jackson, since the occur
ence, and strong hopes are entertain
ed by them, we learn, of his recovery.
Crawford has not yet been arrested,
as his whereabouts has not been as
certained.
What the difficulty grew out of, we
have been unable to learn. Various
are the rumors about it, hut they are :
too vague and indefinite to be relied
upon to give in detail. Report says
that Crawford was slightly in liquor,
and that Watkins was sober. But he
that as it may, the difficnltyjbecurred,
the shooting done, and somebody was
hurt. Our Superior Court is close at
hand, and we urge upon the Grand
Jury, and the officers of Court, the
strictest scrutiny into the great cry
ing evil of the land, to-wit: carrying
concealed weapons. Half the crime
committed, if not three-fourths, in
the land, is, doubtless, traceable to
this custom of our people. We con
fess that it is a hard evil to get at,
therefore the greater the necessity for
a rigid enforcement of the laws lx*ar
ing upon it. As it is, no man’s life is
safe. Liquor and pistols have no re
gard for responsibilities, and left to
their sway, would soon convert our
fair, sunny land into a pandemonium.
It strikes as with some force that
there is a necessity for the opening of
a road out from Cartersville in the
direction of the old Etowah Iron
Works, by the prolongation of either
Main, Market, or Church Streets east
ward. There is a large area of wood
land extending all along our eastern
borders, within less than a mile of the
corporate limits of our town, upon
which grows alarge quantity of timber
and fire-wood, articles considerably
in demand in this market. They can
only be reached by a circuitous route.
In addition to this, it shortens the
distance nearly two miles from this
place to the old Etowah Iron Works.
It gives a direct market road to the
people living in that direction clear
away up into Cherokee county. We
need an eastern outlet from Carters
ville for divers reasons. Nearly a
year ago, two Grand Juries of Bartow
Superior Court recommended the
opening of this road. Last Septem
ber the Grand Jury recommended
that, for the present, the road he not
opened. It is due to the citizens of
Etowah District that this road should
he opened—-it is due to the citizens of
Cartersville. We call the attention
of the Grand Juries of our approach
ing Superior Court, March Term, to
this matter.
We are requested to announce that
the Cartersville Car Factory & Build
ing Association have on hand, and
ready for use, a large lot of Blinds,
Sash, and Doors, finished up. They
invite builders, and others, to call at
the factory i*nd examinq w ork and
prices, or send for circulars.
Several of our merchants have left
for New York to lay in their stocks
of Spring and Summer Goods.
We invite attention to the card of
F. M. Richardson, Atlanta, Ga., deal
er in Stoves, Grates, House Furnish
ing Goods, Ac., to be found inanother
column of this paper. He is one of
Atlanta’s staunchest citizens, and one
among the cleverest men we ever
knew.
While in Atlanta, on last Friday,
we stopped at tiie old American Ho
tel, which we found in the possession
of our esteemed friend and former
fellow-citizen, John C. Martin. We
met a cordial reception, and was treat
ed with all that kindness and consid
eration, during our brief sojourn with
them, for which our genial and clever
host and hostess are so highly com
mended by all who have heretofore
been the recipients of their hospitali
ty. It is needless for us to say more
than that Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Martin
are running this time-honored and
excellent hotel, in order to secure to
them the patronage of North Georgi
ans, while on a visit to the Gate City.
Billy is always ready at the Car-Shed
upon arrival of the trains, to conduct
guests and baggage to quarters in this
house. See card in another column.
W hile in Atlanta, on Friday of last
week, we called in and took a survey
of the Hardware House of Messrs. T.
M. Clarke A Cos. They certainly have
a mammoth stock of hardware, Ac.,
in store, enough to supply as many
customers as may favor them with
their patronage and orders, and at
prices which will render it futile for
purchasers to try further or elsewhere.
Bartow county is represented in this
firm in the person of John A. Fitten,
son of our highly accomplished and
enterprizing friend and fellow-county
man, Col. John H. Fitten, of Adairs
ville. He is a thorough business man
always cheerful and agreeable, and
ever ready to accommodate his cus
tomers and friends. Being thus iden
tified with our county, we hope, if it
ever comes in their way, that our
people will give him preference, over
all others, in the bestowal of their
patronage. They are all gentlemen
of the cleverest stamp.
The Rev. R. B. Headen, Pastor,
we learn, preached a telling sermon,
at the Baptist Church in this place,
on Sunday night last, in which he
took the ground, and very truthfully,
too, we think, that each individual
member of society is, to an extent,
responsible for the crime committed
in their midst. We too often wink
at it, instead of exerting our influence
to suppress it. Station in life, rela
tionship, popular opinion, weatlh, or
some other imaginary meritorious
worldly qualification, often restrain
us from raising our voices against the
infraction of the laws regulating so
ciety; consequently when crime is
committed there are as many engaged
in trying to conceal the perpetrator,
as there are in trying to apprehend
him. The whole people should be
interested in having the laws execu
ted and criminals punished. With
out this, society must and will be in
terrupted by lawless members.

Duval’s advertisement, offering to

Cartersville as a Hunting-
Ground. —A considerable portion of
the territory embraced within the
corporate limits of our town seems to
lie a favorite hunting-ground for the
boys who are possessed of sporting
proclivities. As we happen to be one
of the few dwellers in this pioneer sec
tion, we are frequently annoyed by
the reports of old army and shot-guns
around, and sometimes even upon our
premises! Those boys, colored and
uncolored are unskilled in the use of
those miserable, tricky old fire-arms,
and are liable to do great mischief
with them at any time. So faras we
are concerned we intend to put a stop
to the sport, “ peaceably, if we can—
forcibly if we must.” We would ap
peal to the municipal authorities if we
thought it would do any good, but we
are too far off to expect any attention,
except from the tax-gatherer. We
would like to have a missionary sent
us, hut if that can’t be done we would
most respectfully suggest that a drill
master be appointed to take charge of
those boys, for if they must exercise
those rights, dear to every freeman, it
is important “to teach the young idea
how to shoot,” ifshootitmust! Boys,
don’t bother us with your old rusty
shooting-irons!
Cotton vs. Corn.— The press, in
many instances is already repeating
the same old cry, “ plant more corn!”
“ raise more meat!” “ plant less cot
ton !” This advice may be w r ell
enough if applied to certain sections;
but we think it is not good if applied
to Cherokee Georgia, for our people
always plant enough of corn, and lit
tle enough of cotton. There is%t this
time a large surplus of the former in
the cribs of many of the farmers who
cannot afford to haul it to the railroad
at present prices. Why then should
they plant more to remain on their
hands unsold ? And the remedy is
not to be found in raising meat, for
that article is also proportionately low.
How then are farmers to raise any
money to meet their current expenses
and pay their debts ? The remedy is
to plant cotton! more cotton!! for
that is always equivalent to money,
at some price, and it does not costone
half to carry the other half to market.
The policy for our people is to plant
every acre that is suitable in cotton,
use fertilizers freely, even guano if
you have nothing better, and then
diversify the balance of your crop.
Don’t depend on corn alone, but sow
bountifully of oats, clover and peas.
In this way you can feed your stock
with hut little expense, and at the
same time improve your lands, while
your cotton will insure you money
enough to spend. It is a great mis
take to suppose that much of the lands,
of our section are not adapted to cot
ton, for it has been demonstrated with
in the last year or two, that five hun
dred pounds of lint may easily be
raised here per acre, under favorable
circumstances, and with proper culti
vation. The same lands would not
probably make more than thirty
bushels of corn per acre, and if it
would command one dollar per bush
el, it would require two and a half
acres in corn to bring as much mon
ey as one acre in cotton. Farmers,
don’t be deceived then by the cry of
“ plant more com!” But plant some
corn, some cotton and a good deal of
many other things if you wish to be
prosperous and independent.
The Serenade on Last Monday
Night.— The “Cartersville Brass
Band” visited our part of town on last
Monday night, and favored us with
some most excellent music. We think
the boys deserve great credit for
learning to play so well in so short a
time, for it has been but a few weeks
since the Band was organized. The
class is composed chiefly of very
young men who are noted for their
sobriety, good sense, and good de
portment generally. May they live
long, and ever be ornaments to society
in the various walks of life! Our
town may justly feel proud of such
young men; and may boast of as
many, we think, who are strictly mor
al and religious, as any place of its
size in all the land. We hope our
musical friends will often come round
and soothe us with “ the concord of
sweet sounds,” for it smooths down
the rough places of our nature, and
makes us bear more patiently the
“scorn and contumely of the world”
and the ills to which poor human
flesh is heir.
An Explanation- —When a per
son makes an investment, and by
some accident loses a part of it, the
remaining part, of course, costs him
considerably more than the first price.
Thus, if he loses an eighth, the re
maining part costs him about four
teen per cent, more than at first.
Now, if he wants to sell his invest
ment at a profit, he must get a profit
on the increased cost of the seven
eighths left. This is the case of the
merchant who sells on a credit. He
does very well if he loses no more
than an eighth by bad debts. He is
obliged to get back this loss, and
must sell his goods higher than the
man who loses nothing. This is the
explanation of the circumstance that
cash houses are always cheaper than
credit houses. It is not because cred
it men are more grasping, and want
to make it all at once, but because
they are obliged to sell higher, to re
cover their losses. This is the reason
that Howard & Ramsaur, who sell
strictly for cash, sell so much cheaper
than other merchants. They don’t
lose that fourteen per cent. Go to
their house and see if they dont un
dersell the credit houses. One trial
will show you the Jplace
to invest your money.

The Guano W ar !—When we first
raised our feeble and half stifled cry
against those pile* of guano at the de
pot, we little thought that there would
be raised such an odor about it, or
that we would involve ourself in an
“ unpleasantness” of indefinite dura
tion ; hut such seems to be our fate,
and as we seem to have kicked up a
little dust, we must get out of it some
how. We did hope that since the
witty and sarcastic “ Nemo” had so
completely demolished us in our last
Issue, that the war would end, and
that we would be let alone; but alas!
for human hopes! “ Another Rich
mond’s in the field,” and “ goes”—or
rather comes “ for us” in this week's
paper! And he pursues pretty much
the same line of argument! It is evi
dent that, like the illustrious Grant,
they intend to “ fight it out on that
line.” Well, all we have to say is,
“ Lay on McDuff!” In the first place
we have been deceived and betrayed
by “ Nemo,” for, judging from an ar
ticle he wrote and published about
two years ago, we thought he was on
our side, or rather that we were on
his side, hut we discovered our mis
take too late to avoid his cruel blows!
When we read his article agaiast us,
we suppose we felt as Cseser did when
he beheld his beloved Brutus among
his coaspirators, and reproachfully
exclaimed, “ and thou too, Brutus l”
Thou too, “ Nemo” art become a
champion for guano ! As the politi
cians say, “ consistency is a jewel!”
Dr. “ Nemo” very kindly prescribes
“ dirt and guano” to be carried in our
hat as a remedy for the evil of w hich
we complain. Now Dr. as your col
league suggests, would’nt a brick do
as well, and be more pleasant, or do
you profess to know ? The ancients
sprinkled ashes on their heads as a to
ken of penitence and humility; and if
by imitating that custom we might
appease the w T rath of our enemies, we
probably would use a few of that em
blem, but we aver, most solemnly and
unequivocally that we will “ stout Jit
out” and risk the consequences, rath
er than submit to the slightest admix
ture of guano in the prescription! We
presume that Dr. “Nemo” recom
mends the preparation ou the ground
that the “ hair of the dog is good for
the bite,” or adopting the sentiment
of Pope, he thinks that “ Vioe is a
monster of such hateful mein,” Ac., we
forget the rest, but the idea is that w r e
may submit to a bad tiling, and famil
iarize ourselves with it until we cease
to abhor it, and finally may lie led to
embrace it. This in fact may be said
to be our case now after all! For soon
after we read “ Nemo’s” artiele in
vindication of the “ confounded man
ipulation of nauseousness,” and re
ceived the second-hand circular which
he sent us from Savannah, our preju
dices caved in, and we went immedi
ately to the agent at the hard-ware
store and negotiated for a ton of the
precious— ore , or whatever it is! This
may be said to be another instance of
the triumph of science over igno
rance ! Aint our symptoms more fa
vorable, doctor ? And aint our likes
and dislikes mere matters of educa
tion, of habit, of taste and smell , after
all! You see we were raised in the
country, and, until recently, were but
little acquainted with the strange
ways and rights and smells incident
to city life, and had to be initiated in
to these things by degrees. The scent
of guano, indeed, may become to be
pleasant to us after awhile, as it prob
ably is to many others, w r ho have as
sociated with it greenbacks, fine
hoases, fine clothes, stove-pipe hats
and general independence. At pres
ent, however, we are as unsophistica
ted as w r as the youth from the coun
try, who approached a city dandy,
whose clothes smelt strongly of musk ,
and very kindly said to him, “ My
friend I can tell you how to get rid
of that scent on your clothes.”
“ How!” firely exclaimed the exquis
ite. “ Why, bury 'em /” replied
greeny. The latter had evidently
hunted “ possums,” and found some
thing else in his time! We did say,
in reference to those odoriferous bags
of guano at the depot, “ bury ’em !”
but we now say, we are beginning to
breathe a little freely, and would ad
vise the “ city fathers,” (who always
adopt our suggestions) to spare that
pile! for it shows to all who pass
through our town or near it, that we
are a commercial, indulgent and pro
gressive people!

inick,” “Lone Jack,” “Chanticleer,”
and “ Durham” took the place at that
time, of the choicest “ Havanas.”
To these we have since adhered, as
we have to all the other conditions of
the “ situation” accepted by us, when
the Southern States abandoned
Secession as a remedy for their griev
ances, and agreed that the Federal
Union should be restored “ with all
the dignity, equality, and rights of
the several States unimpaired.”
In our disuse, however, of the cigar
thus occasioned, we have by no means
lost either our taste or relish for the
flavor of a genuine article of the best
quality.
To all, therefore, who are less acqui
esent than we are, in the condition of
affairs in which “the war for the
Union” left us; and who have the
means to indulge in the luxury of
smoking a cigar, equal to any ever
puffed by the Royal Ruler of Cuba,
we would say call upon Col. Maddox,
and inquire for his “Havanas,”
bearing the brand of “THE PEO
PLE’S CHOICE—GEORGIA’S
GOVERNOR.”
Besides the cigars of an exceedingly
rich flavor inside the box, they will
find on the outside a very good
likeness of James Milton Smith,
Georgia’s most popular Goveror.
To Colonel Maddox himself, we
return our sincere thanks for his kind
remembrance in our affliction. —A. H.
Stephens, in the Atlanta Sun.
