Col. J. J. Howard, of this place, showed us, a few days since, a hand ful of new white wheat, just turning, which looked good enough to eat.— He says he will make 700 bushels of it—no mishap. Wc would be w iliing to take it for our next year’s allow ance and risk the chances. Nothing that belongs to the veget able kingdom and which is a product of our soil, hut what now promises a fair yield—garden vegetables, field crops, orchard fruits, etc., afford to the eye of man a most pleasing prospect. The clover crop is being mowed, the wheat and outcrops are ripening for the sickle, and the course of corn and Cotton iff u | rvr«if<l ivrxvi omwumi The wheat crop in this section is still promising, and the harvest will soon be here. We see some fields which give indications of early matu rity. Cotton in this vicinity is looking well, in all the fields we have notic ed there is a good stand, it has been “chopped out” in the most of cases, and has nothing to do now but to spread itself, (torn too is looking well and farmers have every reason to be encouraged. (Since the late rains, gardens in this locality are flourishing, and all kinds of vegetables will soon be abundant. Already many are luxuriating on po tatoes, beans, peas and other delica cies of the kind. The splendid hotel lot in this place, known as the “Skinner Hotel Lot,” we are requested by the owner, J. C. Mart'll, to state will, undoubt edly, be sold to the highest bidder, at the courthouse door in this place, on Tuesday next, (sale day). Who wants to build a first class hotel in Cartersville? Here is your chance. See advertisement. An interesting revival is progress ing in the Methodiat ehureh. Prayer meetings are held every morning, and the word of God is dispensed every night from the pulpit. The al tar is crowded from time to time by those who are seeking pardon and peace in Jesus’ name. May the good work go on, until many shall rejoice in the salvation of God. We are pained to announce that Judge Parrott is very seriously indis posed and is confined to his room. Judge Milner is slowly improving, but is still in very feble health. Augusta cooks are kneading dough made out of flour from new wheat. The Memphis Ajuwnl. « o+ Democratic paper, supports Greeley and Brown, with decided zeal and earnestness. The National Workingmen’s Con vention in session in New York last week nominated Grant and Wilson for President and Vice-President. John S. Lewis, of Atlanta, is writ ing a biography of General John B. Gordon. The prospects for the Atlantic and Great Western Canal for Congression al aid are very flattering. Congress has definitely decided to adjourn on the 29th inst. The site for Marietta was surveyed in 1833. Indians then were numer ous in that vicinity. Hon. John Milledge, a distinguish ed Georgian, died at Forsyth recent ly. < Chattanooga, Tenn., has raised the $150,000 necessary to secure the loca tion of the Southern Baptist Semina ry in that city. Gainesville subscribes $50,000 to the Kingston and Gainesville Railroad. During last winter Aiken, S. C., was visited by 10,000 health and pleasure seekers. A theatre is to be erected. Benj. S. Sheats, Esqr., a prominent citizen of Walton county, is dead. Georgia has 69,956 farms. Brigham Young’s family now numbers exactly a hundred besides himself—32 wives, 28 boys and 40 girls. On and after Sunday, June 2, Night Passenger Train will leave Atlanta 8:35, p. M., and arrive in Chattanoo ga 3 :40a. m., connecting with Fast Line to New York via Nashville and Louisville. Hon. Augussus B. Wright, of Geor gia, in a communication to the At lanta Constitution, pronounces for Greeley at all hazards. Between Grant and Greeley give us Greeley all the time. Give us a Democrat lx'fore either if possible, but that impracticable, then Greeley is as much preferable to Grant as a genuine Simon-pure noble old Dem ocrat to Greeley. The Calhoun Times announces the death of Judge David B. Barrett, a prominent and popular citizen of Gordon county. Quitman has been visited with a SIO,OOO fire. There are sixty-three thousand church edifices in the United States, affording accommodation for twenty one millions and a half of worshippers leaving eighteen millions for whom there is no place in any church. Ihe Arkansas Repulicans, by a large majority, voted down the in dorsement of Grant— refused to send delegates to Philadelphia, and indorse Greeley and Brown. This action was made unanimous. The most remarkable phenomenon of the nineteenth century is visible just nowin the Southwestern division of the political heavens. It is a Pres idential brother-in-law out of office. AMNESTY. Who Arc Relieve*! and Who Are Not— Exception. Under the Bill Recently ra*»e«l by Co.igrca*. The partial amnesty bill passed by Congress on Wednesday leaves, among those who are still under disa bilities, ex-Henators Clay and Fitz patrick, of Alabama; Robert VV. Johnson, of Akansas; Yulce and Mallory, of Florida; Iverson and Toombs, of Georgia; Benjamin of Louisiana, now a citizen of Great Britain; Jefferson Davis and Albert G. Brown, of Mississippi; Polk, of Missouri; Chestnut, of South Caroli na; Nicholson, of Tennessee; Wig fail, of Texas; Hunter, of Virginia, and the following named ex-mem bers of the House of Representatives: Pugh and Curry, of Alabama; Hast, of Arkansas; SJott, of California; Hawkins, of Florida; M. J. Craw ford and Jackson, of Georgia; Lamar, Singleton and Mcßae, of Mississippi; Smith and Vance, of North Carolina; Miles, McQueen, Bonham and Boyce, of South Carolina; Avery and Thom as, of Tennessee; Reagan, of Texas; De Jarnette, Pryor, Bocock, Leake, Smith and Boteler, of Virginia, and others. The exception of the 37th Congress was made especially to in clude General J. C. Breckinridge, of Kentucky, who left his seat as Sena tor from Kentucky to aid the Confed eracy, and served first as General, and next as Confederate Secretary of War at Richmond. The list of judicial officers of the United States still disqualified com prises ex-Supreme Court Justice John A. Campbell, now in large practice at New Orleans; Judges Halyburton uiul Brockenbrough, of Virginia, and others. It is a question whether ex- United States marshals or district at torneys are or are not embraced in this exception, and whether persons who hmi MOttwuU t/-» li/kirl jiidiciai pOSi tions when secession commenced, and subsequently aided it, are or not relieved by the bill. There were about two hundred and fifty officers of the United States ar my and navy who left their places to aid the rebellion, and of these proba bly not one-half are now alive. The law, however, is ambiguous, and the exceptions may and probably do in- i elude all those who had even been j educated at West Point, or who had I resigned long anterior to the rebel lion in which they participated. Os the number thus under disabili ties are Gen. Samuel Cooper, Confed erate Adjutant General at Richmond; Gens. Joseph Johnston, Beauregard, Bragg, Samuel Jones, Hardee, Pem- berton, Gustavus W. Smith, Hood, Stephen 1). Lee, Lovell, D. H. Hill, B. S. Ewell, Jubal A. Early, G. W. Custus Lee, now President of Wash ington and Lee University, Dabney 11. Maury, Fitzhugh Lee, Cols. It. B. Lee, Larkin, Smith, L. B. Northrop (C. S. Commissary General), Myers, (Quartermaster General), and others. Capt. Semmes, of Alabama, Prof. M. F. Maury, formerly chief of the Washington Observatory, Capt. Brooke, inventor of the Brooke gun, and of the system of deep sea sound ings, are the most noted exceptions among ex-navy officers. Jacob Thompson, of Mississippi, Secretary of the Interior, is the only cabinet officer of Buchanan now alive who aided secession. But the excep tions include also Gov. Wm. A. Graham, of North Carolina, who was Secretary of the Navy under Mr. Filmore; C. M. Conrad, of Louisi ana, ex-Secretary of War, and possi bly some others. Henry R. Jackson, of Georgia, and Gen. Wm. Preston, of Kentucky, were foreign ministers, and are therefore embraced in these exceptions. It is hard to estimate precisely the number still under dis abilities, but it would not be wide of the mark to put the number at from 300 to 500 persons. The folly of retaining these excep tions, in addition to the criminal er ror of an ambiguous statute, upon a subject where several penalties attach to an offender, is exhibited by a glance at the number and character of persons who are relieved. These embrace not only the most active ad vocates of secession, but also some who, since the war, have been persis tent “ Bourbons,” and in one or more WTCAYlani’t.Y;uleey were alive, he would be relieved by this act. Alex ander H. Stephens, of Georgia, Vice President of the Southern Confedera cy, is relived; also Governor Henry A. Wise, of Virginia, who boasts that he never asked for an executive pardon ; General Forrest, of Tennes see; Governor Letcher, of Virginia, who ordered the seizure of Harper’s Ferry; Gen. Wade Hampton, of South Carolina; the Hon. Benjamin Hill, of Georgia ; Herschel V. John son, who ran on the ticket with Ste phen A. Douglas in 1860; Robert Barnwell llhelt, of South Carolina, the oldest secessionest of the whole South ; Jas. A. Seddon, of Virginia, Confederate Secretary of War; L. P. Walker, of Alabama; Robt. W Barn well, of South Carolina, Confederate Senator, and probably the most in flexible opponent of reconstruction in the winter of 1864-65; Col. G. A. Henry, of Tennessee; the Hon. Allan T. Caperton, of West Virginia, Con federate Senator; Lyon, Chilton and Dargan, of Alabama: A. W. Garland, of Arkansas; A. R. Wright, of Geor gia; J. W. Moore, of Kentucky; Duncan F. Kenner and John Per kins, Jr., of Louisiana; E. Barksdale, of Mississippi; Bridges, of North Carolina; Henry S. Foote, M. P. Gentry, G. W. Jones and J. V. Wright, of Tennessee; James, Lyons, 'John Goode, Jr., J. P. Holcombe; John B. Baldwin, Walter R. Staples, Fayette McMullen, of Virginia—all the foregoing being mostly members of the Confederate Congress. Among the other prominent Confederates re lieved by the bill are Chas. G. Mem minger, ex-Secretary of the C. S. Treasury; G. A. Trenholm, the Hon. Thos. H. Watts, C. S. Attorney-Gen eral ; George Davis, of North Caroli na, do.; ex-Governor P. H. Bell, of North Carolina; Lewis L. Harvis, of the Virginia Secession Convention; Messrs. A. D. Dickinson, Charles Bruce, W. W. Crump, and other ex members of the Virginia Legislature. All the members of the secession conventions at the South are reliev ed, save a very few who may be em braced under other heads; and this fact, added to the foregoing list of persons relieved, shows plainly how invidious is the distinction made by this law between different classes and inviduals of the late Confederacy. When such as Robert Barnwell Rhett, ex-Governor Wise, and Alex. H. Stephens are relieved of their dis abilities, it is hard to see why others still linger under disqualifications for even the humblest local office, who fully accept the results of the war as set forth in the Cincinnati platform. The extension of amnesty of one hun dred and fifty thousand persons is distinctly claimed in Washington as a triumph for Greeley, and one of the good results of the Cincinnati Con vention. A telegram from Richmond, Va., says that the announcement of the passage of the partial amnesty bill was received with great disfavor and evident disappointment. Asa meas ure to increase the popularity of the Administration party in the South it is a total failure. The great relief needed by the South in the shape of amnesty is the abolition of the test oath 0f*1862, which would allow the rank and file of the late Confederate army to hold Federal offices if ap pointed to any. As the matter stands, none but the prominent lead ers of the South are politicnlly re stored, whiie the great mass are still barred from holding the most insig nificant clerkship in the gift of the Federal Government. Until this test oath is abolished there is no ac tual amnesty. —Baltmore Sun. Hon. John Goode, jr., of Virginia, the member of the Democratic Na tional Executive Committee from that State, publishes a letter in the Norfolk Journal, in which he says : “As at present advised, I am pre pared to support the nominees of the Liberal Republicans, and in my judg ment it would be exceedingly unwise for the Democratic Convention at Baltimore to make any nomination at all. MAJ. THOS. O. BARRON. We are called upon to record the death of another old, highly esteem ed, and prominent citizen of Bartow county, Miy. Thos. G. Barron, who died at his residence on the morning of the 24th inst. Maj. Barron was bom in Hancock county, Ga.. the 28th of July,. 1807, moving with his father’s family to Jones county in the year 1809, where he spent his* boyhood and received the rudiments of an education. He graduated at the State University, and after matriculation studied law and was admitted to the practice at Clinton, Jones county, Ga. On the 27th of April, 1836, he married Miss Mary Jones, soon after which happy event, he came to seek his fortune in our county, settling in the new but l thriving town of Cassville, where he ollowed his profession with success. From ill health he was forced to give up the practice of law and retire to : his farm north of Cassville, upon which he lived to the time of his death. His leading traits of charac ter were boldness, firmness and hon esty, acl aster of jewels that rarely adorn the human heart in these lat ter days of corruption. There was nothing hidden in his nature and he was easily understood, both by friend and foe. He held in contempt fawning sycophancy, fraud ulent actions, and principles based upon corruption, and was ever ready to denounce them with stio.g lan guage and with withering sarcasm, j His was a cultivated mind and a gen ! erous heart from which eminated | sparkling humor, and generous im pulses. J n the year 1853, he piofessed religion and connected himself with the Baptist Church of which he was a promineut and energetic member. The day before his death he talked freely with his wife of his approach ing end, expressing himself perfectly resigned to the will of God. A few hours before his tongue became par alyzed, and his eyes were glazed with death, he called his wife, and affec tionately and tenderly pressing her to his bosom, expressed himself happy in the love of Jesus, and ready for death’s sickle, which had no terrors for him. Calmly and serenely he went to sleep in the arms of his Maker. In him Bartow county has lost one of her best citizens, whose p’ace can not be easily filled. The conn mnity in which he lived has lost a good friend and generous neighbor, and his wife a kind husband. His chair at the fireside is vacant, his voice is no longer heard in the hall, and there is an void in the heart that time can never, never fill. May the grace of God comfort his lonely consort, and may her future life be marred by no troubles or trials, and may her barque be moored at last in the haven of perpetual rest. C.

TERRIBLE HAILSTORM. Large Plantations of Cotton and Corn in Ruins—l’igs, Chickens, and Birds Kill ed—M ies of Fencing Blown Down. The Chronicle and Sentinel has the following: A letter from a gentleman of McDuffe to a gentleman in Augusta, gives an account of a severe hail storm last week: A hail and rain storm commenced seven miles west of my home place last Friday even ing, and lasted a mile east of me. It was one mile or more wide, and swept everything in its track. It killed all of the cotton on the farms of Messrs. James and David H. and Willie Montgomery, and the farms of Mrs. Polly Wheeler and Mr. Brooks; beat the corn to pieces, and the cotton had to be all planted over. It killed the pigs and chickens, and a great many birds on the above named farms, and blew down nearly all their fencing. It killed two hun dred and fifty acres of my cotton which had been chopped out and plowed twice, all of which I just fin ished planting over Thursday. It tore two hundred acres of corn to pieces, which looks like it will come out and make something. It blew down over five miles of my fencing, and knocked the bark off of trees over five years old. It beat a fine milch cow, that I had out in an open field, where she could get no protec tion, so that she died. It never left a head of oats or wheat standing where it passed over. It only visited one-half of my home place. It also injured a portion of Messrs. Usry, Story, Adkins, and others’ crops, so they had to plant a part of their cotton over. We were fortunate in obtaining seed, but learn there is over three thousand bushels for sale in the county. It ruined all the fruit where it went; that which was not knocked off is so bruised that it won’t make anything. It fell about 3 o’clock in the evening, and Saturday morning it was two feet deep in places where it drifted. Over four inches of lain fell at the same time. R. E. S. AMNESTY. On the 13th instant, the following bill, offered by Butler, of Mass., was adopted by the House, by a two thirds vote: A bill to remove the legal and politic al disabilities imposed by the four teenth amendment of the Constitu tion of the United States. Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled , (two-thirds of each House concurring therein,) That all legal and political disabilities imposed by the third sec tion of the fourteenth article of the Constitution of the United States are hereby removed from all persons whomsoever, except Senators and Representatives of the Thirty-Sixth and Thirty-Seventh Congress, officers in the judicial, military, and naval service of the United States, heads of Departments, and foreign ministers of the United States. At the same time, Mr. Butler also reported from the Judiciary Commit tee a bill removing political disabili ties from about twenty-five thousand persons—from every one of whom a request was made—and it was also adopted by a two-thirds vote. RIALROAB MEETING. Cartersville, Ga., May 23, 1872. Pursuant to a call of the committee appointed on the Eastern Extension Railroad, a large number of the j>eo ple of Cartersville assembled at the Town Hail. On motion, Col. Abda Johnson was called to thechair. Thos. W. Milner, Esqr., made Secretary. 8. H. Smith read a report favorable to the vital enterprise. Hon. John \V. Wofford offered the following resolutions as a substitute for the entire report of said commit tee: Resolved, Ist. That we are willing to subscribe liberally to the capital stoek of a railroiul from Gainesville or other point to < artersville, pro vided said company will run the road into Cartersville and locate the depot to suit us. Resolved, 2d. That we will |»etition the Legislature in July to pass an act authorizing the munic’pal authori ties to subscribe to the building of a railroad or roads, as a majority of our citizens may elect. Resotreil, 3d. That the chairman anpoint a committee of nine prudent citizens to. communicate with any company proposing to build such a road, for the purpose of ascertaining the best that can bo done for the in terest of Cartersville, which commit tee shall report their action at the earliest day practicable to a meet ing to be (‘ailed for that purpose by the chairman. Hon. John W. Wofford then sup ported his resolutions in a brief but forcible speech, and concluded by moving their adoption by the meet ing, as a substitute for the preamble and resolutions reported by the com mittee, which was unanimously car ried. The chair then appointed the fol lowing gentlemen as a committee of conference as required by Wofford’s resolution: Hon. John W. Wofford, Col. J. J. Howard, Dr. W. W. Leak, Col. R. A. Crawford, Mr. P. L. Moon, Capt. D. W. K. Peacock, Mr. 11. Padgett, Mr. G. J. Briant, A. P. Wofford, Esq. Upon motion Col. Abda Johnson was added to and made Chairman of said Committee. Upon motion the proceedings of the meeting be published in Carters ville Standard & Express. A. JOHNSON, Ch’m. Tiios. W. Milner, Sec’y. WHEAT, CLOVER-OOTHCALOGA VAL LEY. Messrs Editors :—Last week, while visiting friends in the neighbor hood of Adairsville, I saw some things which may beofinteresttothosewho are engaged in agricultural pursuits, and which, with your permission, 1 shall endeavor to describe. I refer to the good wheat and the good clover which beautifies the lovely valley of the Oothcaloga. Having accepted an invitation cour teously extended me by Col. J. W. Gray, one of our representatives, I rode out with him to look at his “ fine” wheat —fine as I once supposed only in the Col’s, estimation. But when I had reached the spacious fields, and saw “ with mine own eyes” the tall, rank wheat—when I noticed how thick, uniform, and regular it was, I felt that that wheat could not be “puff ed.” It is fine. It is splendid. It is excellent. And this I say not only on my own judgment, but on the judgment of successful farmers. In passing through this wheat I ob served a thick undergrowth of clover, which the Col. informed me would be ready for the mower in 1873. Last fall the clover-sod was turned under and wheat sown upon it. This pro cess subserved the threefold purpose of furnishing nourishment to the present wheat crop; of giving to the clover-embryo an opportunity to take deeper root; and of delaying the lat ter crop until the former can be ma tured. Thus the soil is continually enriched, and each successive harvest is rendered more abundant than that which preceded it. Thus too, the un ostentacious, the happy and contented the ma terial interests of their section, and enhancing their own. As an evidence of this, you have only to visit that highly favored region, and see the new residences, new school-houses, and new barns that are going up year by year. For time would fail me to speak of these things together with the good fences, the good stock, &c., that everywhere greet the eye as you ride through that fertile valley. Bear with me, however, while I attempt a description of a barn which has been recently erected on the place of that unobtrusive Christian gentleman, Mr. A. C. Trimble. It is a unique struct ure, and one which reflects much credit upon our county, as well as up on its owner. It is situated upon a hillock which is gradually sloped in every direction, and covers an area 84x38 feet. Being two feet above the ground, the ends are underpinned with stone and embankments thrown up, so as to allow wagons to pass through it. It is designed to have an elevator and a car, for raising and moving hay when the wagons can no longer drive in. Underneath this spacious barn is an excavation five feet deep, which, with the two feet above ground, gives sev en feet as the hight of the stalls below. These stalls are regularly laid off on each side of an eight feet alley extend ing from end to end, and are so ar ranged as to be provided with food from said alley without entering them. There is an entrance from each side of the barn by means of an exca vated alley which extends, with grad ual declivity, from the floor of the stalls to the sides of the hill. But enough. If some of our good farmers have an idea of building such a barn I have no doubt that they will be ful ly repaid by a visit to Oothcaloga. With thanks, Messrs. Editors, for the use of your columns, and craving the pardon of those whose names I have unsolicited brought before the public, I am, Very respectfully, Hawote. A MOVE IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION Gen. Wofford, who at present has charge of the Alabama and Chatta nooga Railroad, as receiver on the part of the State of Georgia, proposes to inaugurate a most important move ment, in which Alabama, Georgia and ail the Southern States have a vi tal interest. It is no less than to in vite immigration from the great Northwest to come and occupy the thousands of waste places of the South and make them “ blossom as the rose.” Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee and Mississippi present more advan tages to the emigrant in the North west than any other sections of the habitable globe. Here lands are cheap, the climate healthful, mild and genial, the soil rich, the natural re sources inexhaustible, and the geo graphical location in ail respects de sirable. Os all places, these States of fer unquestionably superior induce ments to honest, industrious laborers and farmers of small or large estate who wish to better their condition. This is a move in the right direction, and it is in the hands of the right man. Gen. Wofford is one of the most enterprising, liberal, public spirited citizens of the South. We wish him success in his laudable en terprise, in which every citizen of the Southern States is deeply and vitally interested. We shall recur to this subject again. —Nashville Southern Press. ___ The Herald published a long report of an interview with Win. H. Sew ard, which is substantially as follows: Mr. Seward being lately furnished with a copy of Voorhees speech de nouncing the nomination of Greeley, he remarked: “If the friends of Greeley are wise, they will endeavor to get more Democratic members to join Voorhees in his crusade against the Cincinnati nomination. Nothing could be better for Greeley.” The Rockmart Reporter advertises “ Extra Early Prolific Cotton seed for sale at this office.” Rather lale. THE SITUATIONS SOUTH ( AROLI- A. rOMX-DED.

When he used his poison upon poor Carolina, and brought his murderous work and laid it at the feet of his master, Grant in the language of an ancient usurper told him, “ They lore not poisoi, who Jo poison need, Nor do 1 thee; thougl 1 did wish her dead, 1 hate the murderer. The guilt of eonscieme take thou for thy labor But neither my good word, nor princely favor! With Gain go wandr through the shades of night, And never show thy ;ead by day or light.” In plain prose, Grant became dis gusted with his cieature, aud dismiss ed him. Where does Amos T. Akerman live? When he aceeeded in getting his hands in the Tnited States Treas ury, he resolved 6 femove from his humble home in Rbert. He had the land before him tahoose from, and the means to sette any where. Did he go to a countrywliere radicalism was in the aseendeey, and where his neighbors would 1 of the same po litical faith withiimself? No, he had more sense. He thought too much of himself, lis property, and his family, to trustliem in any such section. He wanted a afe, orderly, law abiding place; an he selected Car tersvilie, the couir seat of Bartow. For the sake of ie spoils and the party he would life to radicalize the State, but for his on sake, he would select a democrat neighborhood, where the law wi enforced with equal justice, and here every man could sit under hiswn vine and fig tree, with none tanolest or make afraid. You are safe hei Amos. Act as meanly as you plea* politically, and no one will molest ju. The only thing y< aie reqnired to defend is your own pnor, and your office, in that respecis a sinecure. We have too da-seated hatred for radicalism, to and you any vio lence. We have haiuch rotten bait dangled at us before, Your life is a clog to your party your violent death would be yankeedom. When we meet ikunk we give him the go-by. Livfe he is harm less, dying he is terrfc. People of Bartow, t us meet to gether at the Court-iuse on the Ist Tuesday in June, tflo all we can to be delivered fromoe tyranny of the present administjon. Should Grant be reacted through the folly or mismartement of the Democracy, we will he inquisitors and thuinb-screw tighiers appoint ed among us, who wimake many think of their mistakwhilst gazing pensively through theirs of a jail. 1 Nemo.
