M., when the rush of business will be over, at which time they propose to proceed with the election of officers. Those who have already joined, and others who may wish to join, are re quested to be present—fail not. The first installment of 250 bushels of new white wheat was brought in to this market, by Col. J. J. Howard, on this (Wednesday) morning, June 19th, and was shipped forthwith to Messrs. Cook & Cheek, Marietta, for which they pay $2.00 per bushel. It weighed sixty-three pounds to the bushel. ’They offer a premium to the conductor who delivers the first cargo of new wheat. This locality was visited by a con siderable storm of wind and rain, on Tuesday evening last. Some dam age ensued to wheat and oats by the wind, but was counteracted by the beneficial effects of the rain upon the growing crops. Messrs. Jackson and Baker are put ting a heavy pine iron front to their new brick stores, which will give them a handsome appearance. We learn that the Rowland Springs property, near this place, will soon be sold at administrator’s sale under an order of the court of Ordinary.— When these springs were open for visitors, as many as 400 have been in attendance at a time. It might and would, doubtless, be so again if ac commodations could now be afforded the public. Brick and mortar are still having the sway in Cavtersville. The Methodist E.

At £ informal meeting held in this place, on yesterday, looking to the organization of a light-horse compa ny, John Jolly, Thos. Stokely, and Col. Acton, of the Atlanta Constitu tion, was elected as solid members. The name of “Phatty Harris” was presented, but he was rejected. | P. H. Brewster, Ix>eal A Ag’l. Ed. Rural Observations. On Thursday of last week we rode out into the country to view the farms and crops of some of our agri cultural friends, and enjoyed our ex cursion exceedingly well. As we passed down the Douthitt’s ferry road, our attention was first at tracted by the fine crops of com, cot ton and wheat of our friend Capt. M. L. Pritchett. We decided that his cotton, taken as a whole, was the best that we had seen. It was thinned to a stand, had been well cultivated, was of uniform size, and gave promise of a large crop. His wheat also was good and the reaper was cutting it down after the best style of the art. How delightful to behold the golden grain, invariably and inseperably as sociated as it Is with good eating. Af ter crossing the river, we passed through Douthitt’sand Quarles’ farms ami found them in good order, and with good crops upon them. As we passed Quarles’, we saw the largest herd of young asses we ever beheld — that is of that variety. What a vast amount of braying will there be at that place, when they all turn loose! Our next observations were made on the splendid farm of our kind and esteemed friend, Mrs. Field. She has about three hundred acres in cultiva tion, and to behold the sea of waving crops growing on those fertile lands reminds one of Egypt, whither the sons of Jacob went for corn. Here we gathered some specimens of wheat which we think equals any we ever saw. The grains are large, plump and firm. We saw on the farm what we never saw before—a water-melon field. There were four acres planted in vines, and the prospect was fine for a good crop. We suggest that a branch railroad be run in that direc tion, in order that those melons may be brought to town when they get ripe. We found our clever young friend, Richard, following the plow as it turned the mellow soil, and we thought he displayed good sense in selecting an occupation so pleasant, so noble and independent. “ Dick” has a nice crop of his own, and “ while sluggards sleep, will have corn to sell and keep;” and not only will he have corn, but cotton and wheat too in abundance. If more young men would go to farming it would be bet ter for them and the country too. Returning homeward by way of Tumlin’s mills, we passed our friend Capt. Dobbs’ beautiful farm, and found his crops flourishing under his skillful management; and our friend Napoleon Tumlin has a good crop on his convenient and excellent farm. Crossing the river we noticed that Col. Tumlin had harvested his fine wheat near the mill, and by putting them close together there seems to be room enough for the shocks to stand on the ground. Capt. Puckett, Dr. Leake, Dr. Trot ter and others have line crops in the vicinity of town, and the prospect is favorable for our people to have “ plenty and to spare.” Yearling Boys. —lt is astonish ing often to see the amount of knowl edge possessed now-adays by yearling hoys—boys in their teens, who as sume all the importance of manhood before they have cut their second teeth, or ceased to crave bread and butter between meals! Oh how self conceited and unteachable those inte resting chaps with their incipient beards are often found to be! Really, in their own estimation, what they don’t know aint worth knowing. They are rebates when compared to many of their old fogy seniors, and are only waiting for a good opportu nity to astonish and admiring world, with their intellectual exploits. They go to church to criticise the sermon, the prayers, the songs and everything they see or hear, and are not at all backward in expressing their impor tant opinions upon any and all sub jects, even in the presence of those who have probably forgotten more than they will ever know. We like clever, well-behaved, respectful boys, but deliver us from those sappy, im pudent sprouts who are too big for their trowsers, and who lmve’nt learn ed enough to know how green they are! Such boys, or young men, are not apt to make wise, respected and useful citizens, for Solomon says, “Seeest thou a man wise in his own conceit? There is more hope of a fool than of him!” Town Hall. —On Friday and Sat urday evening, The Pilgrim, or Life Illustrated will be exhibited at Town Hall. The entertainment is said to comprise exquisite landscapes, rich historical paintings, character por traitures, etc. A prominent and en tertaining feature of the exhibition is the grand transformation scene, which is said to be the ne plus ultra of spectacular productions. The New York Intelligencer says of the Pilgrim Exhibition: No on(' can form an appropriate idea of the grand conceptions and striking imagery used iu Pilgrim’s Progress till he has seen this inimita ble painting. Beautiful is not the word. We might exclaim with po etic fervor that they were “sublime,” But sublimity is not their own qual ity. Most that we can say of them is, that like a noble sermon, coming from the pure heart and luminous mind of a good minister, they awe the spectator into silence and feelings of insignificance, and we know not of a higher compliment to pay these paintings. Like music and eloquence, works of art are to be judged more by the effect they produce on the willing mind than by any rules of fixed criticisms, and that the effect of these representations is ennobling there is no question. If the reverential are made more reverential, and the light-minded to forget their silly levity, while gazing on these conceptions of the poet and painter, the Pilgrim needs no de fender. Then, their object is attain ed, and criticism pro ves nothing. New Postal Route. —Through the efforts of General Young, our postmaster and others, anew postal route has been established from Car tersville to Dahlonega, via Ball Ground, Waleska and Dawsonville, which will be put in operation as ear ly as the necessary arrangements can be made. This will be a great con venience to the good citizens along this route, as many of them are en tirely destitute of mail facilities. ()ur senior local left for Chattanooga on last Monday morning, and if his department falls short of its usual in teresting variety, the fact mentioned, will, we hope, be deemed a sufficient apology. We doubt the propriety of our friends’ visit to Chattanooga "un der the circumstances, as the editor of the Times has intimated a disposi tion to challenge our “ fighting edi tor,” and our senior is the man. We hope, however, that if he fights he’ll “ run away and live to fight another day.” Mrs. Brack’s Concert.—We had the pleasure of attending thiaaCon eert last Friday evening, at Town Hall, and were well pleased by the performances of Mrs. Brack and class. The ease with which the young la dies presided at the piano and organ evinced a thoroughness, or proficien cy, in this great science. Some of the songs were beautiful, yea, heart ravishing, to quote the expression of some immortal poet —and we can safely say the audience was perfect ly delighted. The songs, “ Gypsy Countess,” “Gypsy’s Warning,” “Oh, Johnny, etc.,” Little Brown Jug,” “ Why do theS\. allows Change their Home,” were well sung. The “ Mocking Bird, Variations,” was excentiy rendered. The tableaux, two in number, “ The Youth of our Day,” and “ Faith, Hope and Chari ty,” were indeed excellent, well representing the subjects of the same. The audience was large and intelli gent, comprising some of our best citizens, and chief of all, many pretty young ladies. All went away per fectly satisfied, and doubtless think ing “ it was good to be there.” REPORT OF COMMITTEE. The undersigned were selected by Mrs. Braim to examine, on Thurs day last, the classes in her Female School. All of the classes in the School were not examined, owing to a lack of time; but time sufficient was given to secure, and we were pressed earnestly to make, a thorough examination of the classes placed be fore us. It has seldom been our privilege to witness an examination so satisfacto ry as this one proved. The pupils seemed to appreciate the importance of being familiar with the details and principles of their various studies, and to be impressed with the con viction that what has been done by pupils can be done again. The an swers to questions were generally very prompt and correct. Some of the classes did remarkably well, and the whole examination was credita ble to both teacher and pujffls. W. H. Felton, Theo. E. Smith, R. Johnston, S. G. Hillyer, R. B. Headden, It. H. Jones. Cartersville, June 20,1872. Accident. —Our young friend, Jo el Conyers, met with quite a serious accident, we learn, as he was return ing home from town on last Sunday. He was in his buggy accompanied by a young lady, when, a short distance from town, his horse became fright ened, and ran against a bank. Mr. Conyers was thrown out of the buggy and seriously but not dangerously iujured. The young lady remained in the buggy until the horse was stop ped by a freedman, and escaped with out injury. Rowland’s ferry street is in a bad condition for pedestriaus, equestrians and for all others who travel in that direction. A man driving a horse at tached to a buggy, with two little children in charge, was thrown out the other day, by running into one of the numerous pits in the street. We merely call attention to this matter, and consider comments unecessary. A New Departure.— We saw four new buggies leave Gower, Jones & Co’s Carriage Shop, one day last week, for Cedartown and Rome. The buggy business is no hum bug, it seems. Crops. —The crop news from all quarters is favorable up to this time. From present indications we are led to conclude that this is to be a year of plenty. It is not certain, however, that the corn crop in this section will be a success, for a drouth from this time on would prove most dis astrous. “ There’s many a slip, ’Twixt the cup and lip,” has a special application to the busi ness of farming. Interesting Specimens.— Our accomplished and enterprising friend, Francis Fontaine, Esqr., of this coun ty, left at our office last week quite an interesting variety of specimens of cereals and grasses grown on his farm. Included in this collection are Orchard, Timothy, Herds and Hungarian grass, Millet, Wheat, (the longest heads we have seen,) Barley and Rye. Also, Wild Barley and Wild Rye. We agree with Mr. Fon taine in thinking that these speci mens demonstrate that Bartow coun ty is a grass, as well as a grain and cotton country. We hope he will often favor us with the results of his interesting experiments. The Rev. Geo. G. Smith, of Mari etta, delivered a temperance lecture, at the town Hall, in this place, on Tuesday evening last. We will no tice the lecture more fully in our next. Our town seems to be exceedingly healthy at this time. Wehaveheard of no serious case of sickness for sev eral days. Some of the children have whooping cough, but itdoes not seem to hurt them much. There is no blessing to be compared to health, and we have as healthy a town as any that we know of. Farmers must have fences, and of ten wish to change them—sometimes to fence off a grazing lot, or make pens for cows, horses, hogs or sheep, and for such purposes, a good portable fence is of great val ue. Please exam ine a few pannels near the depot at Cartersville. J. H. RUCKMAN. Cartersville, Ga., June 20tli 1872. Died —ln Cartersville, June Ist, i Jessie Florence, infant daughter of W. A. and Kittle Deweese, aged one year and four days. Sleep! little Jessie, sleep! Not in thy cradle bed; Not on thy mother’s breast, But with the quiet dead. ; Sleep soft in death, and wait thy Redeemer’s will, Then rise unchanged, and bo an angel still. Mb. J. Carter, an artist, will pitch his tent near the Bartow House, in this place, on Friday next, for the purpose of taking Ferreotypes. From specimens shown us at this office, he is an adept at the business. He works at city prices. If our citizens wish a good thing in the way of a picture, they will now have a chance to get it. Mr. Carter will not remain long with us, so those who wish to patronize a first-class artist had better go early. Wesleyan Female Institute, Staunton, Va.—The final celebra tion of the Lee and Jackson Society of the above excellent institution oc curs on to-morrow, June 17th. The annual address will be delivered by Dr. Thomas S. Powell, of this city. Miss Lucy Kyle, of Texas, reads the Salutatory Essay, and Miss Aurora Walker, of Georgia, the valledietory. Essays will be read by Miss Lucy Harris, of this city, and Miss Mary Reese, of Virginia. Miss Aurora Walker is President; Miss Lucy Kyle, Vice President; Miss Maggie Iledford, Secretary.— Atlanta (institution, 1 6tn. CHEROKEE COUNTY NEWS. Benjamin F. Payne of Chero kee County. —We notice in last week’s issue of the Middle Georgian, an account of a debate between some of the students of the State university, in which discussion our talented young friand, Ben Payne of Chero kee county took a prominent part. The question was: “ Was the execu tion of Mary Queen of Scotts justifia ble?” The reporter says, “Next came Mr. B. F. Payne, of Marietta, on the negative, with a very fine I speech, manifesting much thought and a thorough knowledge of the subject.” We are pleased to hear so favorable an account of one of our Cherokee boys, but protest against locating his home in Marietta, for | Trickum and not Marietta is entitled |to the honor; for Ben was born and ; raised at the former place, and is the son of hi s father, Dr. D. H. Payne, j who is one of the best citizens of that ! pretty lit tle village. We are willing, (since the newspapers insist upon it, ’ in spite of our repeated assertions to j the contrary,) that Cobb may have the honor of Bullock’s barn, but we are not willing that she shall claim one of j Cherokee’s brightest sons, who bids fair to be worth more to the country than Bullock, his barn and all the friends he ever had put together. CHEROKEE COUNTY SKETCHES. NO. VIII. Among the first settlers of Chero kee county, we mention Maj. John McConnell, who lived in the neigh borhood of Hickory Flatt; his sons, Gen’l Eli and Henry, who were en gaged in trading with the Indians; John B. Garrison, who we believe was employed in a similar manner; the Evanses, Wm. H., Thos. J., and Phillip J.—the two last named are still living in the Little River neigh borhood, where they settled when the Indians were in possession of the county; Noble P. Beall, who lived at the Sixes gold mine and sold goods; Wm. May, who lived at the same place; the Hillhouses, and others, whom we have not time to mention now. There wsis a Jew, named Solomon, who, in those early times, sold goods in the wilds of the county, not far from the place which is now called Freeman’s Mills. Someone went to his store early one morning and found him lying on his floor, weltering in his blood. He had been brutally murdered on the previous night, and robbed of his money. The horrible affair created a good deal of excite ment, but no clue was ever found to the shocking deed. As we have before intimated, Maj. John McConnell was for many years one of the most prominent and useful citizens of the county. At all the public meetings it was generally un derstood that Maj. McConnell was to be the chairman. He was a large man, possessed a fine appearance, and presided with dignity. He, to gether with our friends, Cols. E. E. Field and Wm. A. Teasley, were delegates to the convention in* 1860 which voted Georgia out of the Union. In justice, however, to the county be it said that they were in structed to favor what was known as the “ co-operation” policy, and that was the policy advocated by them on that memorabie occasion. Maj. McConnell was a consistent member of the Presbyterian church, and died at an advanced age, soon after the war, lamented by a large circle of relatives and friends. He had eight sons, all of whom are still living except two; and what is some what remarkable, they average con siderably over two hundred pounds in weight. Several of them would now pull down two hundred and fifty pounds, we suppose. Gen’l Eli McConnell, the Major’s eldest son, was a very prominent and influential citizen of the county. He was a man of fine practical sense, a skillful me chanic, and a useful man in many re spects. More than once lie repre sented the county in the Legislature of the State, and discharged the du ties of that position with fidelity. He was for several years the efficient Superintendent of the Georgia Pen itentiary ; and in all the relations of life, public and private, honesty and integrity were the characteristics which govered his conduct. He was a zealous member of the Methodist church, and died some time before the war, much respected by all that knew him. Joseph McConnell, Esqr., a brother of the above, was likewise one of our best and most substantial citizens. He was six feet and a half high, and his frame was large and strong. He was a man of good, sound, deliberate sense, and we always regarded his opinions upon most of subjects as being as nearly correct as any man’s we ever knew; and often have sought his advice and enjoyed his friendly counsels. Many pleasant hours have we spent at his delightful home, and when with him and his kind family we always felt that we were among our best friends. His wife was one of the best women we ever knew. Sev eral years ago, in holy triumph she passed from earth to the Christian’s home in Heaven. Our friend, Joseph McConnell, was captured by the Yankees near his home, in 1861, carried to a Northern prison and literally starved to death. He was released just before the sur render, an emaciated wreck of what he had been. After reaching home, he lingered with his family and friends for a few days, and his kind and noble spirit passed away to that city above “ whose inhabitants shall not say, I am sick ;” where the voice of the oppressor shall never be heard, and where there shall be no more war. For many years he had been an efficient member of the Methodist church, and was always regarded as one of our very best men. He was one of our confidential' friends. Oft did we take “sweet counsel together and walk to the house of God in company,” and our heart is sad when we think that we shall see him on on earth no more. Note. —ln the “ sketch” we pub lished last week, we inadvertently said that Jabez Galt was a brother in-law of Dr. Lewis. The latter was Mrs. Galt’s nephew. Look out for Us!—ln a short time we expect to visit our friends in Cherokee, for the purpose of solicit ing subscribers for our paper, as we want every man in the county to take it, and hope to give every one a chance to subscribe for as good a paper as can be found in the State, as many of our friends declare it to be. And those who are in arrears for the paper will please pay us when they see us, if they can. That’s fair, ain’t it? COMMERCIAL. CartmTfHc Wholesale and Retail Pritts.

It is a sad thing to pass through life onlv half alive. Vet there are thousands whose habitual condition is one of languor and debility. They complain of no specific disease; they suffer no positive pain; but they have no relish for any thing which affords mental or sensuous pleas ure. Iu nine cases out of ten this suite ot lassi tude and torpor arises from a morbid stomach. Indigestion destroy* the energy of both mind and body. When the waste of nature is not supplied by a due and regular assimilation of the food, every organ is starved, every function interrupted. Now, what does common sense suggest under these circumstances of degression? The sys tem needs rousing and strengthening; not merely for an hour or two, to sink afterward into a more pitiable condition than ever (as it assuredly would do if an ordinary alcoholic stimulant were resorted to,) but radically and permanently. llow is this desirable object to bo accom plished? The answer to this question, founded on the unvarying experience of a quarter of a century, is easily given. Infuse new vigor in to the digestive organs by a course of Hostet ter’s Stomach Bitters. Do not waste time by administering temporary remedies, but wake the system up by recuperating the fountain head of physical strength and energy, the great organ upon which all the other organs depend for their nurture and support. By the time that a dozen doses of the great vegetable tonic and invigorant have been tak en, the feeble frame of the dyspeptic will be gin to feel its benign influence. Appetite will be created, and with appetite the capacity to digest what it craves. Persevere until the cure is complete—until healthful blood, lit to be the material of flesh and muscle, bone and nerve and brain, flows through the channels of circu lation, instead of the watery pabulum with which they have heretofore been imperfectly nourished. __ 6-6—4 t.

The People’s Stamp of Value.—The Gov ernment endorsement, which legalizes the sale of Plantation Bitters, is not the only stamp affixed to that famous Vegetable Tonic. It bears in addition to that official sanction, the still mo'-e valuable stamp of public approba tion. This inestimable voucher of its rare properties a Tonic Corrective and Alterative, is of much earlier date than the Government cre dential; for millions of sick persons had pro nounced it the Grand Specific of the ago long before Congress thought of taxing proprietary medicines. It is unnecessary to repeat, in de tail, the properties of this wonderful Vegetable Invigorant. The best reference that can he of fered to those who desire the full particulars of its virtues, is the General Public. Ask those who have tried it is as a remedy for dyspepsia, constipation, billiousness, intermittent fevers, nervous debility, rheumatism, sea sickness, low spirits, or loss of vital power, what Plantation bitters has done for them, and be governed by the response they make to your inquiries. A preparation so widely and favorably known as Hall s Vegetable Sicilian Hair Renewer, needs lew words of praise from us. This com pound has won its way to the highest favor in the publie mind; and multitudes, who have vainfy used other remedies for the restoration ol their hair, have, on trying the Sicilian Re newer. been made glad by the speedy restora tion of their gray hair to its natural color, and the thin locks thickened lip, as in the days of early youth. It also prevents the hair falling out, makes it soft ana glossy, and is altogether the best preparation for its intended purposes before the public.—l’ittshurg Chronicle. A Healthy Digestion.
