Died, in this place, on the 29th instant, Mrs. Sarah A. McOinty, w ife of our esteemed fellow-citizen, M. B. McGinty, aged 27 years. She was a member of the Methodist E. Church South, and died ns she had lived—in the faith. She leaves lie hind an affectionate husband and three little children to follow after her. They mourn and bewail her departure, but they mourn not as those without hope. She cannot re turn to them, but they can go to her. God bless and protect the little chil dren, whom thou lovest, and may this sad dispensation be sanctified to the eternal weal of the grief-smitten hus band, and may her demise from this vale of tears and lowground of sor row' to the mansions of the blessed, prove an additional attraction to the loved ones she has left lingering on the shores of mortality to drawn them to her embraces again, in that happy home where the wicked cease from troubling and the weary are forever at rest. So mote it be. FI N E (.'()NG RESS G A ITERS made to order at 11. C. Hanson’s. Bishop Beckwith, of the Diocease of Georgia, Protestant Episcopal Church, preached in the courthouse in this place, on Tuesday morning last at 11 o’clock. Owing to the fact that it was sale-day and a very busy time the congregation was not as large as it otherwise would have been. The Bishop preached a very interest ing sermon, which was listened too with marked attention by Ills spell bound audience. He is an able, flu ent and eloquent speaker, and withal a gentleman of pleasing manners and pre-posses,sing personal appearance. He was assisted in the services of the occasion by the Rev. Dr. Pinkerton, Missionary. Arrangements are now being set on foot for the erection of a church edi fice in this place, and, we trust, that our citizens generally will extend to the denomination, (which is weak in , our midst,) a liberal helping hand in I the accomplishment of their very lan- j dable undertaking.

Passing down the Etowah river in the direction of Rome to Giilam’s spring, some nine miles below this place, a few days since, we were much rqjoiced at the pleasing prospect that greeted our eyes all along the route. Crops all looked clean, green and thrifty, and evidences of industry were manifest on every farm. We had the pleasure of quaffing the cool ing and crystal waters of this splen did spring, which is one of the finest in North Georgia.

The pro fession has in vain, for many years, sought diligently for some remedy that would enable them to treat these diseases with success. At last that remedy has been discovered, by one oi the most skillful physicians in Georgia. That remedy is Dli. J. URADFIKLD’3 FEMALE REGLLATOR.

We spent Monday last at this once popular wa tering place, and was gratified to see that it has not been wholly deserted and abandoned. The houses have all lately been repaired and recovered, and the grounds partially cleaned off. Several families from this place are summering it there. Three different kinds of water commingle and form a beautiful little flowing brook which runs through the grounds—freestone, iron and sulphur. The springs, of which there are four, are all neatly boxed in with hewn rocks, and the water, asi le from its mineral proper ties, is very cold and invigorating.— The grounds are shaded by a heavy grove of natural and ornamental trees, in the midst of which was once a jet and fountain of sparkling wa ters, which ean again be put into play at no very great expense. The hotel •s a commodious wooden building in good repair, and so also are several of the tenant or family houses; several of these, however, after the springs were closed up to the reception of vis itors, several years ago, were torn down and moved to Cartersville, by the proprietor, Major Rowland. Near by is a neat little chapel for religious worship and a comfortable two-story brick academy. Near the latter is mother fine spring, and the hand some, large brick residence of the late Dr. J. W. Lewis. These springs ire surrounded be a lovely mountain ridge, the scenery is magnificent, located five and a half miles north east of Cartersville. All that is re quisite to make this place the Sarato ga of the South, is the expenditure of a little money and labor, nature has done the balance. A meeting was held at the Bank on Saturday, June 29. to consult in refer ence to the interests of the Female Seminary in Cartersville. it was stated to be the object of the I meeting to take some action with a view to securing a building adequate and suitable to the demands of this interest. After some discussion of the gener al subject between Messrs. W. H. Gilbert, T. E. Smith and S. 11. Smith, the following resolutions were offered by Capt. Peacock, and adopted by the 1 meeting. Resolved, That we, the portion of! citizens present, so far as we have the authority, do empower the Trustees,; should they think proper, to dispose of the present school property, and to reinvest in another lot, and erectsuch buildings as may be requisite and ap propriate. Resolved, That we will aid with our means and influence in carrying out this object. J. G. Ryals, Chairman. J. T. Norris, Secretary. A good farmer values his fences of first importance, and if he had 20 or JO spare pannelsso made that he could set them up and change them at pleas ure in a few moments, and so they would stand secure without fear or concern as to their falling down, or being thrown down, he wou'd esteem it worth double as much as any of his other fencing. This arises from the fact that he of ten wants a pen or small enclosure, | for a single night, or few days, and has not time to build a permanent, or j common fence, and suffers loss tor want of something he could use at once, i The Combination portable fence has j been made to supply that want, the inventor had felt this want fora long ! lifetime, had talked of some such fence for more than forty yeai*s, but ■ never till he worked out this inven tion, did ho find one to answer the ! purpose. An editor of an agricultural journal says, “ every farmer should have a few pannels of a good portable fence.” And the farmer that has once known the advantage of such a fence will not long be contented without one. Air. Geo. \V. Hill, our highly re spected and worthy fellow-citizen, ; has brought us under renewed obli gations for a lot of fine garden veget- ! ables, of which he has an abundant supply of the very best.

Gilbert, who departed this life at his residence near this place, on the 2nd instant. The Legislature of this State meets on the 17th instead of the 10th inst., as we stated last week. Col. J. W. Harris, our Political Editor, is absent from home sojourn ing at Alontvale Springs, East Tenn. This accounts for the lack of political editorial matter in this paper. See the advertisement of Air. G.

A Sabbath School Relic.— We saw exhibited, and heard rend bv our excellent old friend Miller, at the Methodist Sunday school on last Sab bath, a Tract in rhyme, which Air. Aliller said was presented to him at ! Pendleton, S. C. by his Sabbath school teacher, sixty years ago! The Rev. Joseph Ilillhouse, whose name is written on the title page, was the pas tor of the Presbyterian church at Pen dleton at the time. Mr. M. says the Tract was the means of his conversion, and as he has probably read it to thousands since, in different States, it has doubtless been the means ol turning many children to Christ. Who am estimate the amount of good accomplished by this little messenger sent forth in the name of the Lord. Stocked Conventions.— As the time is rapidly approaching when conventions will be held to nominate county officers, all over the State, we hope that the people will not suffer corrupt demagogues to impose upon them by calling together delegates who have beeen cut and dried for the occasions, and who will go through the farce of nominating ready-made candidates. Such work is a sham and a fraud and a eontemptable imposi tion, and should not be submitted to by white men. Warm Weather.— The weather has been unusually warm for severa. days past. Over-exertion in the lioi sun should be avoided now. All in toxicating liquors should be let alone. No unripe fruit should be eaten, and every one should keep as cool as pos sible, and look well to all the laws ol health. We call attention to the interesting communication of “Citizen,” to he 1 found in another column, upon the i subject of changing the name of our town. We think “Citizen’s” argu ment conclusive, and hope that the matter will be duly considered by our people. Cartersville would do very well for the name of some cross roads, but we don’t think that a city could be happy* with such a name. Early Corn.— We had a good mess of roasting-ears for dinner on Alonday last, the Ist inst. The com was raised by ourself, was mature and the ears were of good size. It affords us much pleasure to know that we have made the connection , and hope that all our neighbors may soon enjoy the same satisfaction. Fine Cotton.— Our neighbor J. 11. Ruckman has about three acres ol the finest cotton we have seen. We suppose it will average two feet in height, is well limbed and is full ol squares. Our old friend also raised an acre or two of the best oats we have noticed in a long time. He is one of those men who converts every thing possible into manure, and suc cessful farming is the natural result. Post-Office Hours on Sarratii Mornings. —ls our efficient and ac commodating Post Alaster could open the P. O. a little earlier on Sabbath mornings it would relieve many of our citizens of much inconvenience. Alany send their little boys for the mail, and it often happens that they are detained from Sabbatli school on account of the mail not being opened in time. A Short Visit to North Ala bama.—During the latter part of lasi week we went by Railway, to King ston, Rome and Ladiga in North Ala bama. The corn and wheat crops along the route were fine, but the cot ton seemed to be unusually small for the season. We thought it must be what a certain wag calls the “ bum ble-bee” variety, which is so called becausea “ bumble-bee” can stand on its hind legs and suck the top blos som ! The cotton even on the fertile lands between Kingston and Rome was backward and poor. The trains made close connections, and in jusi four hours from the time of our de parture from home we were at our destination in Alabama. On our out ward trip we took dinner at Pryor’s Station on the Selma, Rome & Dalton Road, near the State line, and supper at the same place on our return. They only charge, at that hotel in the woods, the moderate sum of one dol lar for a meal, but we found the fare to be very good, and as our appetite was a little sharpened by travel, we approximated the worth of our mon ey’ in the amount of supplies taken in. Amberson, Ladiga, Cross-Plains and Palona are little stations on the S., It. & D. R., and all within_a few miles of each other. We thought it would be well for them all to consoli date and make a town of some impor tance. North Alabama is a delightful country, and, like North Georgia, is attracting much attention, and is con stantly growing in importance. Much of the lands in that section is good, the water pow er is great, the natural scenery magnificent, and the facilities I for transportation excellent. The 1 country also abounds in mineral wealth, and enterprising capitalists are buying up those seemingly barren and worthless mountains, for the sake of the hidden treasures which they are known to contain. We can’t un derstand how any’one can hope to find , in this world a better country than Cherokee Georgia and North Ala bama. On our return home we went to the Ticket Office at Rome for the purpose of purchasing a ticket before taking the train for Kingston, but before we bad time to buy’ a ticket the train was off, and as we did not wish to be left, we started in pursuit. The train moved with accelerated velocity, and so did we. At one time we almost despaired of making the connection, thought of the exclamation of the irishman, who said “stop your smoke wagon! There is a passenger on board who is left!” And like another son of the Emerald Isle, we were satisfied that we were running fast enough, but were about to conclude that we had not started soon enough. On went the train, and on went we. We knew that nothing could be accom ] plislied without an effort. As we ad vanced, we asked a passenger on the platform if he thought we could make it ? “ O y’es,” said he, and we took | courage, and did make it sometime be fore we got to Kingston ! So much j for activity’ and perseverance. Nearly everybody whom we met in our travels, seemed to think that we all ought to go for Greeley and Brown under the circumstances. We met with one exception, between King ston and Cartersville, on our return. That exception abused Mr. Greeley most cruelly, and we couldn’t help endorsing all that he said against him, yet, we think that he is a para i gon of patriotism, wisdom and virtue when compared to President Grant. The difficulty with us Southern peo ple all the time has been to want the whole hoy or none—a desire to recov er at one grasp all that we have lost. This evidently can’t be done, and it is time that we were beginning to make haste piore slowly. If we can’t do any’ better (and what sane man thinks we can? let us take Greeley’ now, break the spell that has so long embarrassed and paralized us, and hope to b e fully satisfied after a while. But we will now close the account of our recent adventures, lest we be be trayed into a digression. Remarkable History of a Pair of Socks.— We have recently been shown, by an old man, who is at present a citizen of our town, a pair of socks, which have a most re markable history. Those socks were knit by a little girl in South Carolina, and presented to our old friend in the year 1825. Four times has he been married in them, his third wife being the donor of the socks! They are btill in good condition, and the old man, who is now three score and ten, -ays he is preserving them now in order that they may be put on his feet when they are cold in death. CHEROKEE COUNTY SKETCHES. NO. X. Elijah Hillhouse, who was one of the first settlers of Cherokee, was one of the most peculiar men we ever knew. Perhaps no man ever lived in the county who was more generally known. His form was tall but not very well proportioned, yet capable of great endurance, as will appear before we conclude this sketch. Air. Hillhouse had a pretty fair education,' wrote a good hand, and several times was elected to offices of trust in the county. His principal talent was music, and he devoted a great portion of his time in teaching that pleasant and important science. We never were one of his scholars, but often have we enjoyed the pleasure of at tending his singings. The young men and maidens would come far and near to attend one of those “singing schools.” About the first time we ever witnessed one of those schools was in the year 1838 at the Sixes ; school-house. During that year many of the young persons in that vicinity learned to sing by 7 note. We learned i at that time many tunes, which we have never forgotten, and many of those old airs are as harmonious to us now as some of the pieces which have a more recent origin. We suppose this partiality for the songs of other years, is owing in a great measure to association. We well remember how one of those “ singing schools” of which we speak was conducted. The pupils were arranged on benches in a “hollow square.” Air. Hillhouse stood in the middle, and when all were ready for the exercises to com- j mence he would say “ sound the parts!” Then with head partially inclined to one side, he would walk with his right hand extended, along die treble line, leading the sound ; he j would then advance to the tenor and 1 then to the base. After all the parts were sounded, he would then say, begin” and with both hands would “ mark time” to the conclusion of the I piece. This fa sol singing was then, and is now in many neighborhoods a j favorite way of passing the time on die Sabbath. Let it be understood diat there’s to be a singing on a cer tain Sabbath, and we will warrant that a large crowd will be in at tendance. We suppose this may be accounted for from the fact that most persons love music, and those sing ings being a kind of social gathering of both sexes, they are regarded as suitable places to court and be courted _ Air. Hillhouse always enforced good order in his school, and never had any trouble in controlling his pupils. Lt is said that “ one master passion in the human breast like Aaron’s ser pent swallows up the rest.” And we nave noticed that this is especially’ true of music; for those who have a special fondness and talent for the science, seldom have a taste for any thing else, but this was not true of Air. Hillhouse, for, while he delighted greatly’ in the “ concord of sweet sounds,” having, it is said, walked several thousand miles to teach a sing ing school in another state, yet he had a martial spirit, a fondness for war al so, if we are to judge by the number of campaigns he was in during his life. It is said that he was in seven different wars during his earthly’ ca reer ! In every’ one lie endured pa tiently the privations and hardships incident to such a life, and in every engagement proved himself to be a true and gallant soldier. Though somewhat advanced in life, he enlist ed in the late great struggle for South ern independence, and while gallant ly striking for our “ altars and our fires, God and our native land,” he fell mortally wounded in one of the early’ battles of the war. Air. Hill house was a member of the Presbyte rian church, having been brought up in that faith from his childhood, was a quiet and peaceable citizen having a pleasant disposition and a kind and generous heart. On a distant battle field he sleeps, and if we were to visit his grave we would pull off our hat and say, “ here lies a kind friend, a good soldier, an honest man!” CARTERSVILLE IYIALE HIGH SCHOOL.

The hot solhr rays that ripen the harvests generate many distressing diseases. II the liv er be at all predisposed to irregularities, this is the season in which billions attacks may be an ticipated. A weak stomach, too. is weakest in the summer months, and the loss of vitality through tlie pores by excessive perspiration is so great, that a wholesome tonic, combining al so the properties of a diffusive stimulant and gentle exhilarant, is in many cases necessary to health, and under no circumstances should be dispensed with by the sickly and debilitated, us all the preparations intended thus to refresh sustain, ami tortily the human frame, there is none that will compare with Ilostetter’s Cele- j brated Stomach Bitters. They have been ! weighed in the balance of experience and not found wanting; have been recommended from i the first as a great medicinal specific, not as a ! beverage, and in spite of interested opposition : frominnumcraWequaiters,stand, after atwen- I ty years trial, at the head of all proprietary ! medicines intended for the prevention and cure ' of all ordinary complaints of the stomach, the ! liver, the bowels, and the nerves. In the tin- i healthy districts bordering the great rivers of California, Hostetler's Stomaeh Bitters may be ! classed as the standard one for every species of I intermittent or remittent fever.

As bitters, so called, of the most pernicious character, are springing up like fungi on every side, the public is hereby forewarned against the dram-shop frauds. Ask for Hostet ter's Bitters, see that the label, etc., are correct, and remember that the genuine article is never sold in bulk, but in bottles only. 7-4—lm Time and enlightened experience have shown that certain substances formerly used anil relied on in medical practice, are unneces sary and dangerous; yet some of these substan ces have found their'wav into medical com pounds. l)r. Walker’s California Vinegar Bit ters, however, contain nothing injurious, being composed exclusively of vegetable substances from California. For all disorders of the liver, kidneys, bladder, skin, and digestive organs, and for purifying the blood, they are the most wonderful remedy known. 7-4—4 t. Physicians Ise Them in Their Practice. It is almost universally the case that Physi cians condemn what are generally known as “ Patent Medicines.” Although Pit. TUTT’S T.l\ Elt PILLS IS NOT A PATENT MEDI CINE, yet its composition (the result of years of study) is known only to himself, and so pal pable are their valuable curative properties, that very many of the first Physicians in the South and West have adopted them in their practice, and recomended them to their pa tients.

Throughout these States, Mexico, and the Central American republic, down the slopes of the Andes, and I across the pampas of South America, in negro I villages, amid the fervid wilds of Africa, throughout the jungles of India, and the steppes : of interior Asia, over the continent of Austra | lia, and the islands of the Pacific, these Pills are known and everywhere used as family rein j edies for diseases. With distant nations, their I wonderful cures attract more attention than they do at home; for the sentiment of wonder takes a far deeper hold on their minds than the results of a higher scientific skill with us. The I amount consumed require seventy-five thous i and doses a day to supply it. An inspection of the manufactory showed us bow this normous j demand is made and sustained. Added to the i consummate skill of their composition, is an ex '• treme care in their manufacture, which at once secures the most perfe't material and their most accurate combination. The consequence is a power and certainty in controlling disease which other remedies never attained.—Balti more Courier. •• BILLIOTS.” If rou feel dull, drowsy, debilitated, despond ent, have frequent headache, mouth tastes bad ly in morning, irregular appetite and tongue coated, you are suffering from Torpid Liveror | “ Biliiousness.” In many cases of “Liver j Complaint” only a part of these symptoms are experienced.
