Howard & Ramsaur claim to be
the cheapest house in Gartersville
and invite the most rigid inspection
of goods and prices, which will bear
them out in this statement. Their
system of business is admirably
adapted to the trade of mechanics,
ami all persons who receive wages or
regular salaries; and to all who wish
to make their money go as far as pos
sible in the purchase of their supplies.
They do save money to their cus
tomers.
TO THE PUBLIC.
Many of the patrons of the Carters
ville Female Seminary desire a bet
ter house for pupils and teachers.
House now occupied is not what it
ought to be. The school is nourish
ing and deserves better accomoda
tions. To consider this, a meeting is
called to meet next Saturday, the
29th, at 10 o’clock, in Town Hall.
Come all, matters of public import
will be discussed.

Fair, in October, next.
Among the accessions to our newly
organized cavalry Company—t h e

arms, is a nice Cannon.
Six candidates are all that we have
yet hoard of in this county who are
patriotic enough to sacrifice them
selves upon the altar of their country
by serving, her in lower branch
of the Legislature. There are, doubt
less, a few more yet who will answer
to the call.
The adjourned term of Bartow Su
perior Court is set for Monday, the

Rain.—For the past day or two,
this section has been literally flooded
with rain.
The Car Factory, in this place, we
learn, has received orders to put up
six box cars for the Cherokee R. R.
A good omen.
Not less than a dozen threshers and
separators have been carried away
from Lie depot in this place this sea
son.
“Baron At<lrie,” the line thorough
bred bull, belonging to Messrs. Row
land and Sproull, was run over and
killed by the cars on the Cherokee
Railroad a few days since. This bull
was on exhibition atour last fair, and
was then sold to these gentlemen by
Col. Rochester, of Kentucky.
Would it not be well for our town
Council to enamall the town Hall,
by cutting off several rooms, auq
renting them for offices, and fixing ,
up the remainder in regular amphi
theatre style, for the accommodation
of shows, etc? It strikes us that the
Hall, as it is, is entirely too large, and
would look a great deal better if it
was smaller. A neat design has been
drafted and left at this office, which
can be seen at any time.
Fine Buggy.— We had the pleas
ure on yesterday of examining a very
stylish and durable buggy or phaeton,
manufactured expressly for The Con
stitution office, by those No. 1 work
men and excellent gentlemen, Messrs.
Gower, Jones & Cos., of Cartersville.
It l3 now a fixed reality that there
is no earthly necessity for our people
to send to New York, New Jersey,
Connecticut or anywhere else ou t G s
the State for vehicles. Our towns
and cities have just as good workmen
as can be found anywhere, and our
woods furnish superior material.
The above gentlemen we take pleas
ure in recommending. —Atlanta Con
stitution, 23 d.
ETOWAH CITY.
In the bill to be presented at the
approaching session of the next leg
islature, changing the name of Car
tersville, and incorporating her as a
city, the alwove, we learn, is the one
suggested. We hope this hill will lie
passed, and the name changed from
“Gartersville” to “Etowah City.”—
Nearly every other town in the State
has a ville swung to its name; and
while this is no disgrace, it confers
no very great honor upon any locali
ty. At home it is all right, but at a
distance it smacks smartly of “small
potatoes.” The time has been when
the name corresponded with the
place. Not much was thought of the
place, and loss really of the name.—
In making these remarks we would
not be understood as casting any slurs
upon the gentleman for whom it was
named. It is only the vide part of it
that we object to. We know that
there is not much in a name. It is |
said that “a rose would smell as sweet j
by any other name;” and while this !
is true, thcTe may be something in a j
sound. Suppose, for instance, you •
was to read of a town called Tickle-giz
zard, Lick-skillet, Pan-handle, or some j
other like insignificant name, it is
apparent that no place of any preten
sions at all could prosper with such a
cognomen. The name would carry
with it the idea of a burlesque. Many
a man has been honored and admired
wherever he lias gone, because of the
appendage of Governor, General,
Colonel, or some other like appella
tion of distinction being applied to
his name, while appellations of mi
nor distinctions would be held in de
rision by the masses, and further
more would be received as an evi
dence of the smallness of the man
sporting it. Cartersville is a name
without significance. Etowah City
sounds romantic, and no stranger
who would hear the name would fail
to be impressed with the idea that it
was something more than a one-horse
village.
ST ILLS BOKO’.
In our trip to Stilesboro and Bran
don’s a few days since, we w r ere much
gratified to note the good condition
of crops and the country generally.
We never saw cleaner and more
thrifty crops at this season of the
year. In every direction we could
and did mark evidences of prosperity.
The Cherokee Railroad has given a
new impetus and interest to every
branch of industry and enterprise
along its route, and every body seems
to be in good spirits. The valley of
tke Etowah is blossoming as the rose,
and the same may be said of the
beautiful and fertile bottoms of Rac
coon and Euharlee creeks. Among
the features along our route, which
more particularly attracted our admi
ration was the handsome residence,
lovely ilower yard, with its magnifi
cent hedges and walks, its delightful
retreats and bowers, its beautiful an
nuals and evergreens, together with
a large body of fertile lands in culti
vation, was the plantation of our es
teemed friend, Arthur Davis, and
better know as the John L. Rowland
place. We spent a few moments in
company with a friend very pleas
antly, indeed, in the inspection of the
costly, tastily arranged and elegant
ilower yard, the handsomest, perhaps,
in this section.
The next place which attracted our
undivided attention was the classical
village of Stilesboro. Had this vil
vage been built more compactly, it
would have showed off to better ad
vantage. As it is, it is too much
scattered, being built up along the
road for the space of half a mile. In
the heart of the old site stands the
splendid residence of our esteemed
friend, Dr. S. F. Stephens, and on the
opposite extreme, upon an eminence
some quarter of a mile distant, stands
the Stilesboro Institute building and
commodious steward’s hall, and at
each end of the principal street are
the stores, shops, etc., and away off,
some half a mile, at the depot of the
Cherokee R. R., several business
houses have just gone up. The vil
lage is so scattered that there is but
little symmetry or’order in its appear
ance. It is surrounded by a magnifi
cent country, and the society is un
surpassed. A beautiful avenue has
been opened from the Institute
to the depot. The depot building
and shed does not present a very
imposing appearance, though, per
haps, it was the best that could be
done under the circumstances.

Saturday evening. P. M. B. Young

The Company was organized with
about 05 members. Application will
be made at once to the Governor for
arms, etc. The Company, it is hoped,
will be armed and equipped for pa
rade at our approaching Fair. A
meeting of the Company was called
for next Saturday.
We regret to chronicle the fact that
our highly respected friend, John G.
Colbert, of this county, had the mis
fortune to lose his his right arm, on
Friday, List. It was drawn into the
cog-wheel of a thresher, by his shirt
sleeve, and so crushed that amputa
tion, above the elbow, was rendered
necessary. At last accounts he was
doing well.
We were glad to see upon our
streets, on Monday last, the face of
Mr. John W. Leigh, of the firm of
Hope, Leigh & Cos., Commission Mer
chants, Chattanooga, Tenn. This is
°ne of the best business houses in
Chattan 00 g. v? and we commend them
to the pa\ ro nage of our merchants. —
They occupy the stand nearest the
boat-landing, q n the Tennessee river,
at the foot of Market Street. See

tinguishing feature of their house.—

CHATTANOOGA, TENN.
We had the pleasure of spending
Tuesday, of last week, with our
j highly esteemed friend, Col. White,
Superintendent of the Alabama &
j Chattanooga Railroad, in Chattanoo
ga, Tenn. We found the Colonel
busily engaged in the transaction of
, business connected with his post. He
| is a faithful and efficient officer, and
notwithstanding his presence is so
necessary, at all hours, at his office,
he stole away long enough to show
as some of the sights to he seen in
that rapidly rising city. He intro
duced us to many of the best business
men in the city, and acquainted us
with a few of the many incidents
connected with the affairs of the
Road he represents. He showed us
the magnificent Staunton House,
standing out in bold relief, in an old
field, some half a mile from the other
hotels and business part of the city.
This house is nearly a fac simile of the
Kimball House, Atlanta. He showed
us the splendid large brick store
houses and Post office building, to
gether with a part of the commodi
ous car shed, machine shops, etc.,
erected under the direction of Mr.
Stanton, the projector and director of
this master-enterprise—the Ala. &
Chattanooga Railroad, all of which
stood near the splendid depot of said
Road. It was Mr. Stanton’s inten
tion to attract the improvements of
the city to that point, and thereby
change the locality of the business
part of the place. Unfortunately, be
fore his work was accomplished, he
failed, and we were assured that his
splendid improvements would not
bring ten cents in the dollar. It is
truly heart-sickening to see what an
amount of money has been expended,
and to what little purpose.
Gen. Wofford, Receiver of the A. &
C. R. R., had gone to Montgomery,
Ala., on business. We had the pleas
ure of shaking the hand of Col. H. F.
Price, of this county, who is the Treas
urer of the Road, who was looking
well and hearty.
Chattanooga is indeed a rising city,
and bound to take rank among the
first cities of the South. Her Rail
road facilities are unsurpassed, and in
addition her water facilities are good,
and destined to be much better. The
Tennessee River affords steam and
flat boat navigation, and but for the
suck between that point and Bridge
port, westward, would afford naviga
tion for at least 150 miles each way.
As it is, the boats ply almost entirely
between that point and Knoxville,
eastward. Her manufacturing inter
ests are daily increasing.
The Roan Iron Works extend for
nine or ten miles along the river. At
the Rolling Mills, we were told, they
turn out one miles of iron rail per
day. The Vulcan Iron Works are al
so doing a splendid business. The
Lookout mountains still lift their gi
ant proportions in gorgeous display
above the city, from whose dizzy
heights daily is viewed, by visitors,
the grand landscape surroundings of.
Chattanooga. The Water Works still
cap Cameron’s hill, from whose sum
mit may be seen the meanderings of
the majestic Tennessee, for miles up
and down.
The city is lighted with gas, and
watered from the Tennessee. Many
splendid business houses are going
up, and the Wholesale Trade is begin
ning to become one of the distinguish
ing features of the city. The Times
Printing Establishment is sending
out daily, a first-class newspaper, of
the true Democratic type. Our
friends, Satterfield Pyron & Cos., for
merly of this place, have a nice estab
lishment, and are doing a good busi
ness in the mercantile line, and seem
to be well pleased with the city. In
conclusion we would say that there
are a great many clever and sociable
people in Chattanooga.
Bishop Beckwith, of the Episcopal
Church, will preach in the Court
House, in this place, on Tuesday next,
at 11 o’clock a. m. The public is in
vited to attend.
OUR CROCKERY STORE.
P. Marsli & Cos., of the Crockery
store, of this place, have just received
a fine lot of glass Fruit Jars, of differ
ent sizes and patterns. In addition
they have on hand a superb lot of all
kinds of Crockery, Glass-ware, and
other wares and goods, which come
in their line. This is a neat estab
lishment, and they sell goods at very
reasonable prices, and our people
should patronize them liberally.
We are glad to see that dirt is be
ing removed preparatory to the erec
tion of another two-story brick build
ing, with two store- rooms below, on
the lot adjoining the one on which
Mr. M. B. McGinty is now building,
above the Bank Building. Mr. Ly
man Chapman is the brick contract
or, and W. B. Wallace, wood con
tractor.
We stated a few weeks ago, that
the Planters’ and Miners’ Bank, of
this place, had been bought out by
the Georgia Banking & Trust Cos. —
This, we learn, is a mistake. It is a
new company that has been organ
ized. Mr. Miles G. Dobbins, of that
establishment, is one of the principal
stock-holders. This Bank will go in
to operation on the Ist. of July, prox
imo, under the name of Planters’ &
Miners’ Bank.
We notice, among other improve
ments in Kingston, that our friend
Couch has put up a large, handsome
Hotel building, that would be an or
nament to places of far greater pre
tensions than that modest little vil
lage, and from all that we can learn,
his fare corresponds with the build
ing.
Oothcaloga Valley, on which stands
the quiet and interesting little village
of Adairsville, embraces one of the
finest bodies of grass, clover, and
grain lands in Cherokee Georgia,
which is watered by a creek of the
same name. The people who live in
this valley live on the fat of the land,
and their farms are beautiful to be
hold.
While returning from Chattanooga,
Tenn., on Tuesday evening, the 18th.
inst., the cars on the W. & A. R. R.
stopped, as usual, in front of the Ho
tel, at Tunnel Hill, when it was an
nounced that “fifteen minutes for sup
per would be allowed, and all who
did not see proper to go and get it
would be unceremoniously locked up
in the cars,” which was done. We
understood the necessity of eating,
but couldn’t comprehend the impor
tance of the “locking up process.”

-The “SoapShow”—well, well! who
ever heard of a Soap Show before?—
Yes, a bona fide Soap Show is in town
—showed last (Tuesday) night at the
Town Hall to a big crowd, and will
show again to-night, (Wednesday).
Only 25 cents admittance, children
10 cents. Wit and humor, without
vulgarity, is the leading feature of
the entertainment, introduction of
the Soap the prime object. A novel
ty without a parallel. Mr. Carroll is
a trump ; though a southern man, by
birth and education, an ex-Confed.,
he defies yankeedom for shrewdness
and success in advertising his busi
ness. He peddles no wooden nut
megs. His soaps are genuine. He
challenges proof to the contrary from
any and every quarter. In his en
tertainments he combines humor,
wit, ventriloquism, music, song, and
Soap.
At the Wesleyan Female College
Commencement, Staunton, Virginia,
recently, the valedictory essay was
read by the President of the society,
Miss Aurora Walker, step-daugh
ter of our highly esteemed friend and
former townsman, W. It. Coleman,
now living near Talking Rock P. 0.,
Pickens county, Ga. She is a young
lady of superior accomplishments.
To the honor of Georgia be it said
that she is one of the six full gradu
ates of the noble and honored institu
tion, and takes off at this commence
ment the highest honors of the col
lege. Her praise is on every lip in
the college.
We notice that our friends, T. M,
Clarke & Cos., Hardware Merchants
of Atlanta, Ga., have moved out of
their former store-room, and it has
been torn down, root and branch, and
upon the site they are erecting a com
modious three story brick building.
When completed, this establishment
will overshadow any like one in the
South. They mean business, and
they mean it on no picayune scale.—
Our esteemed young friend, John A.
Fitten, formerly of this county, and
whose father is one of the very best
citizens of this connty, is one of this
fir.m Let Bartow County people re
member this when they go or send to
Atlanta to buy anything in the Hard
ware line.

H. P. Farrow’s Speech.—H. P.
Farrow made a speech the other
night in Atlanta, in favor of Grant
and Wilson. He replies to Hill,
Toombs, and Stephens, shows up
their errors, past and present, and in
sists that he is on the right track,
and has been all the while! He says
that he is a South Carolinian by birth
and education, and justifies the course
pursued by the government towards
that down-trodden and unfortunate
State. The Col. seems to glory in
the degredation of his people and in
his own shame. We are glad he is
not a Georgian.
The Rev. Geo. G. Smith’s Lec
ture, delivered in the Town Hall,
on Tuesday evening of last week,
was well received. The speaker’s
subject was Temperance, and not
withstanding' so much has been said
and written upon the theme, his re
marks were original and were well
spiced with anecdotes, sarcasm and
wit. Our friend seemed familiar
with the various kinds of drinks,
subterfuges which are used as substi
tutes, etc., and we couldn’t help
wondering how he came to know’ so
much about them! He was particu
larly hard on “ Muggins,” the un
scrupulous liquor-seller, w’ho sells
mean whisky to niggers and o.hers
on Sunday, aud at any other times,
and w r e say, “ hit him again ’” But
little does Muggins care so he makes
money ! We hope that good is done
by such efforts as the one put forth
by Mr. Smith, and we think that
more should be said and w’ritten
against the evils of intemperance, for
those evils prevail to an alarming ex
tent, and unless counteracted in some
way, the consequences will be fearful
indeed. The press and the pulpit
should condemn dram-drinking, and
denounce drunkenness; and all lov
ers of peace, good order and morali
ty, should unite in opposing the fear
ful tide of intemperance that is
cursing and destroying its untold
thousands. Let the children and
the young men of the country be
taught the danger of indulging in
dram-drinking; and through the in
fluence of the fire-side, the Sabbath
school and the pulpit, be trained to
walk in the paths of sobriety; and
when the present race of drunkards
is gone, the evils of intemperance
will, in a great degree, disappear
with them, and a better state of
things will then exist. What a great
work is before us, and what a tre
menduous responsibiltiy is upon us,
who are on the side of God and
truth!

A Pitiful Condition.
It is a sad thing to pass through life only half
alive. Yet there are thousands whose habitual
condition is one of languor and debility. They
complain of no specific diseas-' they suffer uo
positive pain; but they have v. > relish for auy
thing which affords mental or sensuous pleas
ure. In nine cases out of ten this state of lassi
tude and torpor arises from a morbid stomach.
Indigestion destroys the energy of both mind
and body. When the waste **f 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 depression? The sys
tem needs rousing and strengthening: hot
merely for an hour or two, to sink afterward
into a'morc pitiable condition than ever (as it
assuredly would do if an ordinary alcoholic
stimulant were resorted to,) but radically and
permanently.
How is this desirable object to be 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 Bitter;:. Do not waste time by
administering temporary remudies, but wake
the system up by recuperating the fountain
head of physical strength amlenergv, the groat
organ upon which all the other organs depend
for their nurture and support.
By the time that a dozen do-os of the great
vegetable tonic and invigorant have been tak
en, the feeble frame of tne dyspeptic will be
fin to feel its benign influence. Appetite will
e created, and with appetite the capacity to
digest what it craves. Persevere until the cure
is complete—until healthful blood, fit to be the
material of flesh and muscle, bone aud 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.

Human Wreck. —Every day aud hour we
meet with broken down specimens of humani
ty—wrecks that seem past hope of salvage. At
least seven-eights of these might be filled with
new vitality, by a course of Dr. Walker’s Cali
fornia Vinegar Bitters. Many are suffering
from the reaction of rivm-poluted bitters or
powerful minerals. It is characteristic of Dr.
Walker's Great Restorative that it neutralizes
the effect of these miscalled remedies, aud ac
complishes, in due time, a perfect cure.
Nature Gives us Teeth, but she does not
preserve aud purify them. That must be done
with Fragrant Sozodont. The dental bone and
its enamel casing are made invulnerable to all
destructive influences by the daily tise of this
beneficent preparation.

If you occupy these relations now, or about
to do so, study*well your constitution. If you
have acquired or inherited Scrofula or any dis
ease which may be transmitted to your off
spring, it is your solemn duty to eradicate it.
Thousands ot children are now suffering from
the effects of poisonous disease transmitted to
them from their parents. The thought is ter
rible. You can save yourselves much madness
and solicitude and your dear little ones much
pain and unhappiness by the timely use of Dr.
Tutt’s Sarsaparilla and Queen’s Delight. It
will surely eradicate the taint from your sys
tem, or if it has already been entailed upon
your chnd give it at once, this valuable prepa
iion and its system will be renovated aud re
stored to soundness.
Montgomery Cos., N. C., Sept. 11, 1869.
Dv. Win. II I'utt:
Sir— Please accept the heartfelt thanks of a
mother who was well nigh driven to despair by
the sad condition of an only child. My little
boy has been afflicted with Scrofula ever since
his birth, and after trying every remedy that
w-as recommended, and several physicians had
prondunced him past all hope, I accidently
heard of your Sarsaparilla and Queen’s De
light. It was so highly recommended that I
concluded to try it, but I must say with very
little faith. He has taken nine ol the bottles
you sent me, and I am happy in being able to
say that he is almost well; and I believe by the
time he takes the dozen he will be perfectly
restored to health. He has gained flesh, has a
fine appetite and now walks two miles to
school. I shall always remember you with
gratitude. ANN MURRAY.

FOUNDED ON A ROCK!—The disappoint
ed adventurers who have from time to time at
tempted to run their worthless potions against
Drake’s Plantation Bitters, vow that they
cannot understand what foundation there is
for its amazing popularity. The explanation is
simple enough. The reputation of the world
renowned tonic is founded upon a rock, the
Rock of Experience. All its ingredients are
pure and wholesome. How, then, could trick
sters and cheats expect to rival it with com
pounds of cheap drugs and refuse liquor, or
with liquoriess trash in a state of acetous fer
mentation f Os course the charlatans have
come to grief. Their little game has failed.—
Their contempt for the sagacity of the commu
nity has been fitly punished. Meanwhile Plant,
ation Bitters seems to be in a fair way of event
ually superseding every other meilicmal prepa
ration included in the class to which it belongs.
In every State and Territoiy in the Union it is,
to-day, the accepted specific for nervous debil
ity, and vspepsia, fever and ague, rheumatism, and
all aliments involving a deficiency of vital
power.
Pimples and brown spots on the face.
Eruptions and blotches. Scrofulous Diseases,
and all sores arising from impure blood, are
cured by Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discov
ery.
The Bar Room Remedy for weakness of the
stomach is a dose of Rum Bitters. They are
surcharged with Fusel Oil. a deadly element,
which is rendered more active by the pungent
astringents with which it is combined. If your
stomach is weak, or your liver or bowels disor
dered, tone, strengthen and regulate them with
Vinegar Bitters, a pure Vegetable Stom
achic, Corrective and aperient, free from
Alcohol, and capable of infusing new vitality
into your exhausted and disordered system.
