The action of the Richmond coun
ty Democracy in convention, assem
ble! at Augusta, resulting in a recom
mendation to support the Greeley
ticket by a unanimous vote, we con
sider as strongly indicative of the
feelings in the ranks of the party
throughout the State. The Hon.
Linton Stephens, who, in the main,
coincides in political opinion with
his brother, A. 11. Stephens, w&s
present and addressed the meeting,
strongly protesting against the pro
priety of endorsing the Cincinnati
nominees. The meeting gave him
an attentive and respectful hearing,
hut without hesitation adopted the
resolutions reported by their com
mittee unanimously, in substance
endowing the nomination at Cincin
nati ; thus firing the first gun in
Georgia in behalf of Greeley and
Brown. Several gentlemen address
ed the meeting advocating this poli
cy, among whom were Gen. A. It.
Wright and the Hon. 11. W. Hil
liard. We are not surprised at this
result, which has for some time been
foreshadowed by the Constitutional
ist and Chronicle, papers published
at Augusta; and we shall not be far
wrong in saying that it is hut the
course which will be adopted by the
entire party of the State, w ith here
and there a few exceptions. So de
cided is the opinion of the Constitu
tionalist as to the propriety of the
Liberal Republican alliance, that it
declares “we thoroughly believe it
will be the highest wisdom for the
Georgia Convention to send dele
gates to Baltimore, instructed to vote
for the nomination of Greeley and
Brown us the candidates best calcu
lated to defeat the party in power
and that “there are thousands in
Georgia who think so as thoroughly
as does the writer, and the number is !
daily increasing.” The opinion so j
frankly and decidedly expressed we
feel authorized to say would meet
with a hearty response from the en
tire Democracy of Bartow county and j
the Cherokee region, for while we are j
altogether disposed to abide by the
nomination of the Baltimore Con
vention, whatever it may be, if made
in good faith and fairly, yet public
opinion fully concurs with the Con
stitutionalist in the propriety of not
only making no Democratic nomina
tion at Baltimore but upon the ne
cessity which is upon us of adopting
the ticket put out by the Liberal
Convention. The people here are
for Greeley and Brown, and should
Baltimore decline giving them as
candidates for Democratic support,
they will be disappointed. For a
more particular representation of the
county on the subject, we refer to
their action at a public meeting held
in the Court House on Tuesday last.
From all quarters, north, south, east
and west, comes intelligence favoring
the course on the part of the Balti
more Convention, and if the late
statement that Belmont, Chairman
of the National Democratic Commit
tee, has at last emphatically advised
it as the thing most proper for us now
to do, we take it that before that
body shall meet all dissentient opin
ions will give way and this policy
will be the avowed policy of the
party in the coming campaign. We
regret to see any want of harmony
in our ranks, and trust that all shades
of opinion in the party will agree to
disagree, and if as is now be
lieved, Mr. Greely will be the accept
ed nominee at Baltimore, all clash
ing and differences will be laid aside
for this once, for the sake of the good
cause, and that as one man the De
mocracy of Georgia will put forth its
undivided strength in favor of the
nomination. “ A long pull, a strong
pull, and a pull all together,” and all
will be well.
Athens, Ga., June 2d, 1872.
Standard <{• Express: —This place
does not look as it did in days lang
syne. You do not see the faces of old;
not many of them at least. The law
offices are filled with new men; and,
it might be added without disparage
ment, that the new are not the equals
of the old.
“ There were giants in those days.”
At one time Athens could boast the
ablest bar in Georgia. It is now up
held by a* very promising class of
young men, who may or may not rise
to eminence. The trade from the
mountain counties, which formerly
came here from Jackson county,
Georgia, to Franklin, North Caroli
na, now finds a market nearer home.
Gainesville and Atlanta are getting
most of it. It is said the local trade
has increased, so Athens does not
miss what has been cut olf, as much
as might be supposed. All together,
there is not any tliiug like the life
here as there is in Cartersville.
But for the Colleges the ominous
words “To Rent” would be placard
ed upon most of the houses in Athens.
Ana speaking of the Univesity, it
seems as prosperous as could be ex
pected, when it is taken into consid
eration our people are poor, and the
institution is dependent upon the lo
cal patronage, There are some 150
young men in attendance upon the
University proper, and something
over 70 connected with the new Agri
cultural College. And speaking of
the latter reminds me that the people
here are very much in love with
Gov. Smith ’for appropriating the
Land Scrip to the University, and
very much afraid the Legislature will
interfere with it. Alfred Richard
son, one of the colored representa
tives, died not a great while ago, and
to-day the Democracy met and nomi
nated a Dr. Durham, as a candidate
to till the vacancy. It is said he will
be elected.
Os course the ebony and mahogany
voters of the county will run a man
and a brndder.
The sheriff of Oglethorpe county,
day before yesterday, enjoyed the
pastime of hanging a negro, who had
been sentenced to that penalty in pur
suance of law, It seems that this ne
gro had merely exercised his privile
ges as anew born freeman, and bhot
dead, without provocation, one of his
fellows. No use to be free unless one
is allowed to do as freemen do. You
will remember that our county man,
Ben Latimer, could not be made to
understand the impartiality of the
law that imprisoned him For “not
working,” when Col. Harris and Dr.
Clayton were allowed to go without
molestation.
I find some of our county people
here; among others I met our young
friends, Robert Tripp, John Wil
liams and young Mr, Padgett, who
are at the College. Their manners
clearly indicate they are £ober, indus
trious, and attentive to their studies.
Our friend W. W. Milam is also here,
tripping the light, fantastic toe, and
teaching others to go and do likewise.
When I meet my friend I can’t
help thinking we make our living by
using opposite extremities. But the
purpose of life is a support with at
tendant pleasures, and what’s the
matter, whether it comes of the head
or the feet ?

J Ousts. Editors: Allow me space
in your excellent paper to in\ ite in
creased attention to a work of first
importance to every citizen of (_ar
tersville, and to all the citizens of the
country which we propose to aid. I
allude to the necessity resting upon
our community, and now recognized,
—superinduced by mutually result
ing benefits, to more promptly attend
to the requirements of the hour, and
at once inaugurate the construction
of a railroad from Cartersville to El
lijay; thence, eventually, to the
Ducktown Copper Mines.
Four months past, my attention
as a railroadman, in common with
other citizens, has been drawn to an
investigation of resources of the fa
vored region of country proposed to
be penetrated by a line of road from
Cartersville, via Fairmount and Car
ter’s Quarter, to Ell ijay, thence,
eventually, to the Duck Town Cop
per Mines. The line of road contem
plated in affording transportation,
unlocks and brings to Cartersville al
most the entire traffic and travel of
this, among the most favored, sections
of our whole State. Here lies a wide
and extended scope of country em
bracing several counties North and
East of us, abounding in natural
wealth ; rich, in a large sense, in the
products of the soil—cotton, corn and
wheat; rich in the products of the
orchard; rich in the products of the
dairy, the stock farm, and the poul
try yard; marvelously rich in the pro
ducts of the mines, the quarries, and
the forests, as also in innumerable
and commanding water powers;
health, water and climate all suited
in an eminent degree to the life of
man—and yet this most favored re
gion is to-day comparatively locked
up for lack of railway facilities af
fording cheap transportation to its
varied and valuable products, thus
remote from the highways and
thoroughfares of commerce and trav
el, its vast agricultural and mineral
wealth is but superficially known
over the State at large; really, the
smokehouse, the corn crib, the dairy
and poultry yard, and many of the
flouring mills of Georgia, all, to a
large extent, may be located in this
highly favored region of country;
abounding in fat cattle, hogs and
sheep, and all the means of wealth
and good living. Uninterrupted
and cheap transportation afforded
this inviting section of our State and
much of dependence for such supplies
may be withdrawn from Tennessee
and the west, in favor of our own
State and our own people. Is this not
desirable and should it not be so,
since Georgia, by common accord, is
recognized as the “ Empire State of
the South ?”
Remarkable, indeed, isn’t it, that
no railroad has been carried into such
a country ? Its varied and abundant
products, as we all have seen and
know, are hauled in carts and wag
ons to the towns and villages on the
Western & Atlantic Road, to Adairs
ville, to Calhoun, to Resacca, to
Kingston, to Rome and to Carters
ville, while no small percentage of
the same is annually hauled in the
same manner all the way to Atlanta.
Have we not seen from five hundred
to a thousand wagons in the streets
of Cartersville during a season from
the scope of country referred to, haul
ing in their products and carrying
out their supplies? And yet Car
tersville, the natural outlet and mar
ket for all the products, and all the
trade has not received the one-tenth
part of what she will secure by
promptly taking the initiative and
carrying her railroad to the good
people in all this land of Egypt, there
to be greeted and welcomed as one
bringing unto them glad tidings and
precious gifts, and shall we not help
liberally and largely those who stand
ready to help us in the accomplish
ment of an indispenslble work for
the interest and great benefit of all
concerned.
But independent of the abundance
of products from agriculture, horti
culture, the dairy and stock farm, a
railroad should have penetrated years
ago to the opening up of the immense
wealth of this section in iron, copper,
slate, marble and all other ores, min
erals and precious metals incident to
the vertical eolumn or mineral back
bone-extending through all the
States from the lakes of the north to
the mines of Mexico,—in no locality
more accessible, varied and abundant
than in the mineral districts of the
favored section referred to. Up to
the commencement of the late war,
and indeed until two or three years
since that unpleasantness, the ener
gies and resources of the Southern
States were almost entirely absorbed
in the production of the indiginous
staple, to the exclusion of manufac
tures and the vast mineral interests
of these States. Especially was it so
in Georgia and Alabama, where coal
and iron abound. Now the wealth
and power of the State of Pennsyl
vania, through her iron and coal, in
connection also with the recent un
precedented advance in the price of
manufactured iron throughout Eu
rope and this country, is inviting in
creased attention of manufacturers
and capitalists to the superior and
more abundant ores of these States;
and it is the opinion of many iron
masters of the North, some of whom
are already making large invest
ments in Georgia and Alabama, that
the day is not distant when the man
ufacture of iron, and the iron trade,
will suddenly assume gigantic pro
portions in these highly favored
States where iron and coal and all
the facilities for the manufacturing
of iron so largely abound.
The inviting country proposed to
be penetrated by the railroad in con
templetion offers the attraction of un
usual variety and inexhaustible
quantity of richest iron ores in close
position to fluxes, fire-clay and every
necessary facility and appliance for
the production of all qualities of man
ufactured iron, as with the immense
iron interest of this favored section ;
so with the vast slate and marble
quarries, the copper mines, the great
lumber interest, the utilization of
water-powers, increase of manufac
tures, increase also of agricultural,
stock, and many other products. In
regard to all these sources of revenue
to the State, of wealth to individuals,
corporations and communities, the
controlling consideration and lever of
power, is that of certain uninterrupt
ed and cheap transportation, which
the railroad alone can afford. Hap
pily, just now, for the success of this
enterprise, our citizens are almost a
unit in purpose—more alive to the
importance of building this road and
building it speedily than any enter
prise that could be presented. Well
understanding the inducement to in
crease of population and capital, pro
motion of commercial, manufacturing
and all other interests involved, ad
vanced and sustained by the pro
ducts ; travel, traffic and varied re
sources of the rich back country to be
penetrated by this railroad, in ad
dition to present sources of thrift and
prosperity from the rich counties of
Bartow, Polk, and other surround
ings, and no town or city in our
whole State would rest upon a more
solid financial basis than our now
prosperous and rapidly growing
town, or cify as you may please to
call it, of the Rto\yali valley.
In future numbers of the series in
contemplation, data will be given in
regard to resources, financiering, lo
cation of line, railway construction,
class of road and equipments, togeth
er with such statistics from the coun
ties penetrated as may be interesting
to the public. It. A. Crawfokd.
The Cork correspondent of the Bos
ton Pilot says that more people are
now emigrating from Ireland than at
any previous time. Not less than 4
thousand leave the country every
week, and two thousand go from
Queenstown alone. Whole hamlets
and villages are left with only the
old and decrepit in them, and some
cities, such as Limerick, are going to
decay.

THE DEMOCRACY OF BAR
TOW SPEAKS.
According to previous notice, the
Democratic party of Bartow county
met in mass convention at the court
house in Cartersville on Tuesday last.
On motion Dr. S. W. Leland was
called to the chair and Thos. W. Dodd
requested, to act as secretary.
On motion a committee of nine, one
from each militia district, viz: A. P.
Wofford, Thos. Tumlin, Hon. John
W. Gray, David Stokely, A. Vincent,
T. Stephens Dr. Battle, John F. Har
din, Monroe Goodson were appointed
a committee to report business and
delegates to the State convention, to
meet on the 20th inst.
While the committee were retired,
the convention was highly entertained
by speeches from Hons. Watt Harris,
W. Akin, It. 11. Cannon, It. W. Mur
phy and It. A. Crawford.
The committee returned and re
ported through their chairman, A. P.
Wofford, as follows:
Resolved, That we have carefully
examined the resolutions of the Rich
mond county convention, and find
them in all respects the views of your
committee, believing that the princi
ples therein contained cannot be ma
terially amended.
Resolved, That the reforms most
desired by the Democratic party are
local self-government, the subordina
tion of the military to the civil au
thority, the preservation unimpaired
of the writ of habeas corpus, and the
checking of the centralizing tenden
cies of the Federal Government; that
all other subjects of political conten
tion are insignificant in comparison
with these; and that to attain these
the Democratic party will accept any
other, preserving, however, its own
organization.
Resolved, That in public, as in pri
vate affairs, when we cannot attain
all that we desire, it is the part of wis
dom to choose the greatest good which
is attainable, unless the choice carries
with it dishonor.
Resolved, That no dictate of prin
ciple or of honor, forbids the alliance
of the Democratic party with other as
sailants of the common enemy, or re
quires the Democratic party to prefer
certain defeat to partial victory.
Resolved, That what we have re
tained of civil liberty we owe to the
Democratic party; that the split in
the Radical party is due to the un
creasing warfare of the Democratic
party upon the usurpations and cor
ruption of the Radical Administra
tion ; that with these proofs of its vi
tality and power, and with a partial
victory in its grasp, it would be guil
ty of criminal folly should it disband.
It should preserve its own organiza
tion independent of all other political
parties, and fight under its own ban
ner; not disdaining, however, such
temporary alliances, dictated by wis
dom, and justified by honor, as will
secure even a partial triumph, other
wise, impossible, of the great princi
ples for which it contends.
Resolved, That this meeting ap
point nine delegates, viz; Col. Lew
is Tumlin, Hon. John W. Gray, Hon.
David Stokely, Capt. Thos. W. Dodd,
Hon. Warren Akin, Col. It. H. Can
non, Hon. Watt Harris, It. W. Mur
phy, Esq., Capt. A. F. Yv T ooley and
Col. It. C. Saxon, to the State conven
tion of the Democratic party to as
semble at Atlanta, the 26th inst, with
no instructions, other than to strive
to the utmost to preserve the harmo
ny, consistent with the principles of
the party, and to aid in the selection
of such delegates to the Baltimore
convention, as can be trusted to act
honorably and wisely for the Demo
cratic party of Georgia according to
the exigencies of the occasion.
Ry Col. R. A. Crawford, it was
Resolved, By the Democrats of
Bartow county, in mass meeting as
sembled, that we indorse the admin
istration of His Excellency, J. Milton
Smith, as faithful, wise, bold and pa
triotic, fully meeting public needs
and public expectations.
Hon. Watt Harris, in one of his
most happy efforts advocated the
adoption of the committee’s report,
After soine further skirmishing by
different Honorable gentlemen, the
report was adopted without a dissent
ing voice, except two nays on the
complimentary resolution to our wor
thy Governor.
Resolved that the Standard &
Express, be requested to publish
these resolutipns.

Ar> Aißsvir.LE, June Ist, 1872.
Messrs. Elitors: Were lan editor,
and had 1 the pen of Dickens and one
page of your most excellent paper, I
might tell your many very intelligent
readers what I have seen and heard
during the last four nights.
I have referred to the closing exer
cises of th<? “ Adairsville High
School,” under the supervision of
Prof. J. L. Milbum, which commenc
ed last Tuesday night and ended last
night. In my limited time and space
I only have room to give a graphic
report.
The exercises were commenced on
Tuesday night by the pupils of the
primary department, which is under
the personal supervision of that ami
able and accomplished teacher, Miss
Hattie Fitten.
The little fellows lead off admirably.
“We littie folks”—Missie Lewis;
“ Vacation is coming”—Henry John
son ; “ The Reply”—Hattie David
son, and “ Tom Thumb” by Bela
Milbum deserve especial mention.
The little boys and girls didn’t seem
to be embarrassed in the least. Miss
Hattie watched the little fellows its if
her whole soul was in the cause.
Wednesday night came the speech
es by the young men of the school.
The following were delivered in a
style becoming statesmen of mature
years, showing that Prof. Milburn
has been untiring in his efforts to ad
vance them in this very important
branch of school training.
“South Carolina”—Thos. llilburn ;
“ The answer”—Chariy Davidson ;
The Southern Hero” —Willie Neal;
“ Apostrophe to Washington”—Sam
Crawford; “ Cataline Denouunced ’
—Bayless Lewis; “ The Lost Cause”
—Mart King; “ Demands of the age”
—Sam Lumpkin; “Georgia”—Du-
Bose Fitten; “The man of the peri
od”—W. Venable; “ The great ques
tion”—Cliarly G hoist on. The “South
ern Hero,” by Willie Neal, was re
ceived with great enthusiasm. The
mere mention of the name of Gen’l
Robt. E. Lee seemed to send a thrill
through every heart. Mr. Venable
broke down at the zenith of his glory
in “ The man of the period,” simply
because he caught the eye of one of
the young ladies of the school, for
whom he has some attacks bordering
on “ moon-lightism.”
After the speaking, Prof. Milburn
announced that “tne roses would
bloom on Thursday night.”
Thursday night came, and the roses
did bloom. The young ladies came
out in full force,' neatly dressed in
white, and all seemed smiles and
beauty. Each one held in her hand a
boquet of flowers emblematic of
Springtime, innocence and love. It
was enough to make the hard heart
of any old bachelor feel as if it had
been pierced by one of Cupid’s darts.
Am sorry to say I didn’t preserve a
programme of their compositions, but
suffice to say, they all did well. All
displayed taste in the selection of sub
jects, and the manner in which they
handled them.
Friday night was the “ gala night”
of the whole exercises, being devoted
exclusively to Dialogues, Dramas and
Compositions. ‘ 1 The modern school, ’ ’
“The Arkansas _traveller,” “The
Doctor and Patient,” Betsy Baker,”
“ Woman is the Devel,” and “The
Bet” were well played, but “The
belle of Adairsville” eclipsed every
thing. (Os course everybody wanted
to see the belle.) When the curtains
were raised all eyes were strained to
see her, but imagine t heir disappoint
ment when they saw all the young
ladies of the school standing promis
cuously on the stage. But it didn’t
stop here. The audience couldn’t see
the “ point” until Prof. Milburn step
ped forward and exhibited to the au
dience a small dinner bell , at the same
time giving it a light ring—That did
settle it.
Thus the exercises closed. Prof. M.
in liis usual happy style thanked the
audience for their attention and good
order, and the patrons of the school
for the liberal patronage bestowed up
on him. He also announced that the
school would open again on29th July
next.
1 can’t close this lengthy article
without saying that Miss Sue Crouch,
the accomplished instructress in the
musical department, with her class of
students added greatly to the pleasure
of the occasion. Among her pupils
would mention the names of Misses
Joe Milburn, Kate Dixon, Georgia
Myers, Patia Bowdoun and Joe Gray,
who seemed to take a peculiar inter
est in entertaining the audience.
Miss Kate rendered “Shoo Fly”
and “ Up in a Balloon” to perfection.
Nothing occurred to mar the pleas
ure of the occasion except a dog fight
right among the ladies ot the audience
Friday night. Some of the babies
were thrown up right high, and Mr.
John L. is said to have caught some
of them.
Something was said of pickpockets
but the audience, like myself, didn’t
seem to be uneasy.
At a late hour we commenced to
move off. There was indeed a large
audience every night, but the last
night every place upon which a foot
hold could be had was occupied.
The audience was highly entertain
ed throughout, and universally pro
nounced Prof. Milburn and his school
a success —So do I.
I won’t say anything about the
parting scenes.
I noticed on that night, somebody
kissed somebody, but I was not a
school-boy, hence was not a party in
that play.
We left a little before midnight to
think and dream of what we had
seen.
I beg respectfully lo thank Mias
Hattie for taking care of me through
the whole time—four nights. Don’t
be alarmed at this as you know it is a
leap year , and I am getting - old and
blind.
In conclusion, should say thatthere
is no better place in North Georgia
for training the young idea of our
country in the way of letters than the
“ High School” at this place. More
anon.
Respectfully,
Medicus.

It would be exceedingly pleasant
and might be eminently useful for
the ladies who have received, their ac
ademic and collegiate education in
Rome to meet together and renew
their early friendships. That they
may do so on an appropriate occasion,
I invite them to assemble at the
Rome Female College, on the after
noon of Wednesday, the 12th of June,
If they will do sc annually, I will en
gage to have an address delivered to
them each year by some gentleman
who has married one of their number.
Believing that this invitation will be
gladly accepted. I have requested the
Hon."A. R. Wright to deliver the first
address. It affords' me real pleasure
to announce that he has consented to
commence this series of addresses,
which will add largely to the interest
and usefulness of all further com
