The Baltimore Convention.— The New York Herald’s reports from the Baltimore Convention speak of it in the highest terras as an im posing and orderly body of men—far superior in its material to that of either the Cincinnati or Philadelphia Conventions. The Milledgevllle Federal Union announces the name of General A. II . Colquitt for Governor. At the meeting of the Board of Trade in Augusta on Wednesday every merchant present was for the nominees of the Democratic Conven tion —Greeley and Brown. P. T.

The Marietta Journal learns that Mr. Edmund Barber, of Cobb county, some three weeks ago, dug from his gold mine a diamond, valued by a New York assayist, at $60,000. The Rev. Charles R.

Hurrah for Greeley !—Greeley men are as thick here now as chicken bones around a Methodist camp ground. Kentucky sportsmen are using ni troglycerine to catch fish with. A pound of it exploded below water re cently elevated eighty-six of the finny tribe weighing from a half to thirteen pounds each. Breckinridge and Black.— Both of these distinguished gentlemen whose Democracy will hardly be questioned—intend to cast their votes for Greeley and Brown in the next election. , , T Half a million of dollars was won and lost on the race at Long Branch the other day between the running horses Harry Bassett and Longfellnw, which was easily won by the latter, though the former was the favorite of the wagerers.

This Convention, the result of which ha- lx-q* looked to with such kite rest and anxiety by all parties both North, Soutli, But, and Wot, met at the appointed place and time, and nominated Greeley and Brown for President and Vice-President, dud adopted The Cindncinnati Mat form without change. Great una nimity existed, and these two candi dates were unanimously nominated. Their nomination was hailed with acclamations of joy by the Liberals and Democrats throughout the Union. A few outsiders (sore-heads) bolted the Convention and called an other Convention to assemble in Lou isville on the 3d September next, to nominate a straight-jacket ticket of some sort, which for the sake of har mony, we trust, they will never hold. The Greeley and Brown star is now far in the ascendant, and all that is necessary to secure their success is for these two jmrties to stand shoul der to shoulder in this contest. Let one and all lay aside petty prejudices and preferments, and for the sake of ousting Grant and his corps of hun gry office-holders, let there he a unity in the support of the nominees of the Cincinnati and Baltimore Conven tions. It is not exactly what we want, hut is certainly a step in the right direction. Let us avail our selves of all opportunities offered to get rid of the horde of jackals who have been so long feasting and fat tening upon the spoils of office. If ever there was a time in the history of the United States when right thinking and law-abiding men should be united in their efforts to establish and maintain constitutional liberty and good government, that time is now', for, united we will stand, but divided we will fall. We pledged our self, as thousands of other good Dem ocrats did, to abide the decision of the Baltimore Convention. We have confidence in the men who were sent there to review the ground and weigh the consequences and ad vise us what course to pursue, and they have promptly and faithfully performed the trust confided to them to the best of their judgment and alrility and have given us the result, and we have no inclination to set up our judgment againt theirs, or demur at their decision. We sent them there to do what they have done, and, doubtless, they have done the very best they could, and we cheer fully endorse their action, and would consider that wo were feting in bad faith to do otherwise. Their de cision is not the conclusion of one man, but of a number of men, chosen by the people for their wisdom and sound discretion. Certainly no man who had a voice, directly or indirect ly, in sending them there, will dis regard their judgment or impugn their motives, by repudiating their action, let us rather applaud them by saying, “ well done, good and faith ful servants.” Therefore, we unfurl at our mast head and fling to the breeze, the banner of Democracy, with the names of Horace Greeley and Gratz Brown inscribed upon its folds. We find this remarkable statement in the Newnau Herald: An Angel Seen in Heaven by Rev. It. W. Bigham. —On Sabbath morning Rev. R. W. Bigham, pastor of the Methodist Church of this city, preached on the visitations of angels, lie selected no particular text, but read many passages of scripture to prove that angels have often visited the earth, bearing messages from God, and conversed with men and women, and insisted that the angelic visitations are not limited to time and place, that the men and women of the present day have seen angels, and heard them sing and talk as well as those mentioned in the Bible. Af ter the preacher had concluded this portion of his discourse, he related his personal experience. He stated that God had permitted his sainted wife, (who died on the day of June) since her death, to visit him twice —once by night and once by day. He declared that on a certain night after her death, about the same hour of the night on which she had entered Heaven, he was awakened by music, sweeter than earth can know; that he was fully aroused, with eve ry power of his mind in full opera tion, and, in fact, could see his wife and hear and understand her words as distinctly as the congregation could his. Mr Bigham added, I know I am neither insane nor superstitious, and yet I would as soon doubt my own existence as the truth and reali ty of what I have told you. The driver of “ Goldsmith Maid” challenges Bonner to run against “ Dexter” or “ Joe Elliott” for $5,000 to $50,000. The most encouraging accounts are given of the cotton and corn crops in North Carolina. Another Republican paper, the Mount Pleasant (Iowa) Press, crosses the lines and enlists under Greeley. At Boston, June 29th, Bonner’s “ Joe Elliott” trotted in harness, a mile in 2: 15$ —the fastest time ever made. It is estimated that fifteen million tons bituminous and nineteen mil lipii tour anthracite coal were mined in the United States last year. There were imported over four hundred thousand tons of coal. The British society for the ad vancement of art offers $5,000 reward for a pigment or covering that will perfectly protect iron from rust and fouling. In excavating for stone for the foundation of the new court house of Randolph county, Arkansas, a lead of silver ore as large as a man’s fist was struck, thick with the most nat ural blossom. While in Paris, the Prince of Wales called on Mrs. Johnston, formerly Miss Harriett Lane, who did the honors of the White House when Buchanan, her uncle, was president. Owing to the fact that the County Democratic Convention was held in the Court House on last Saturday, at the hour appointed for the meeting of the Etowah Dragoons, that meet ing was postponed until Saturday evening next, 2 o’clock, when it is desired that all the members of the company will be present at the Town Hall. Fail not, as the future well being of the company hangs upon this meeting. It has often been said that one of the greatest wants of the farmer these days is that of a good portable fence. OriSTWmau for State at Large-- Him. lx*wis Tumlin Suggested as one of the Candidates. Editor*:— The Atlanta Sun, in Saturday's issue, calls attention to the fact that the two new Congress men allowed to this State by the Ap portionment act passed at the last session of Congress, will probably be nominated by the Convention on the 24th, and elected from the State at large. If this course be persued there can l>e no doubt that the nominees of the Democratic Convention will be elected. I suppose it will be conced ed on all hands that North Georgia is entitled to one of the members, and the only question then to be deter mined, so far as this portion of the I State is concerned, is, who shall re | eeive the nomination? Hon. Lewis ' Tumlin is suggested as a gentleman well qualified for the position, com j petent to the discharge of the high trust imposed upon a member of Con- I gress, and in every way worthy and deserving .of the honor implied. Col. | Tumlin is a representative man of that class of our citizens whom we 1 ought to take special pride in honor ing. He is a tried and true Demo crat ; he is a man of an acute and comprehensive intellect, of extraor dinary business qualifications, of large and varied experience, always liberal-minded, and of great benevo lence ; he is aself-made man—having begun his life without other capital than an active intellect, a genial na ture, and an honest purpose to go to work to better his condition in life, and being now probably the wealthi est citizens in North Georgia. Col. Tumlin is a farmer, the large majori ty of his large property consisting of farming lands, and stock for culti vating them—his interests thus be ing identical with those of the great majority of our people. His proper ty was accumulated, not by engaging with “rings” in disreputable specula tions, but by honest, untiring, ener getic work, and it cannot be denied that his management of it in the past and in the present shows the rarest business qualifications. He is not an office-seeker, but he would doubtless accept this high trust as he would undertake to perform any other duty. Moreover Col. Tumlin has special claims upon our own citizens, greater perhaps than any other man in North Georgia. He has a large amount of capital invested among us, and gives employment to many la boring people. He has done more perhaps than any other man towards building our Court Houses and Churches, establishing our Schools and supporting our poor. Again, I repeat, our people ought to take pride in honoring such men as Col. Tum lin. He is honest, capable and wor thy, and I hope his claims will not fail to socure from the Convention the consideration they merit.—Stan dard & Express, of July 4 lh.

Mr. Editor : —The above has sev eral noticeable feature. The signers are all citizens of Cartersville; it was soon found that if it were sent out in to the county generally, to say noth ing of surrounding counties, the list of subscribers would become so long as to more than cover your w'hole pa per ; indeed I think that it is not an over statement to say that it would receive the endorsement of four-fifths of the Democrats of this section of the State. You will notice also that the signers are not a “ ring” or knot of Col. Tumlin’s personal friends; on the contrary almost every merchant and business man in Cartersville is a signer; so also are the Superintend ents and operatives of Car Factory, Machine Shops, &c. Col. Tumlin is a man ofthe people, and deserves this honor at their hands. That he will receive it there cannot be a shadow of a doubt, if the people can have their own way in the mat ter, and the small politicians can be prevented from redistricting the State.

My Dear Sir:— l have lately read with interest the communications ap pearing in your paper on the subject of the name which shall he given your thriving and beautiful town, in the city charter which your citizens intend asking your Legislature for at its coming session. Permit me to say that, to one at this distance, it appears that the word “city” in the title which seems to command the most respect, “ Etowah City,” is superflu ous, and that the one word “Eto wah ” would constitute the most hap py selection possibly to be gotten, both for its beauty and its brevity. Wishing you may not only get a city charter and a suitable name, but also obtain for your town all the pros perity which her commanding situa tion warrants me in hoping for her, I will write myself, Truly yours, Elbert P. Cook. The Beaufort Republican says last week the Port Royal Railroad run a schedule something like this: Trains leave Port Royal every once-in awhile; reach Yemassee semi-occa sion ally, connecting accidentally with any train upon the Savannah and Charleston Railroad.

BautoW Sup’r Court, July Bth 1872. Whereas, at a meeting of the Bar of the Cherokee Circuit, on the 12th of June, 1372, the undersigned were apppointed a committee to draft and report suitable resolutions in relation to the death of our lamented Bro., the Hon. J. R. Parrott. On this, Monday Bth July, 1872, the commit tee thus appointed beg leave to sub mit the following: Judge Parrott was born in Cocke county, Tenn., in Februaav, 1826, and died at Montvale Springs on the 10th of June, 1872. He came to Georgia in 1848, and settled in Gordon county, and in 1852 he removed to C’arters ville, where he resided till his death. He immediately entered the practice of the law, and pursued it with untir ing energy and great success. Al ways feeling a deep interest in the politics of the country, he took an ac tive part in all the leading contests of the day. He was on the Fillmore Electorial Ticket in 1856, and also on the Bell and Everett Electorial Tick et in 186(1, and canvassed his Dis trict with a vigor and ability that endeared him to his party friends. He was a member ofthe Georgia Con vention of 1850, and of the Constitu tional Convention of 1865 and 1868, and was the President of the latter Convention. In 1863 he was appoint ed Quarter-Master, with the rank of Major, of General Wofford’s Brigade, and continued in that position till his appointment as Solicitor General of the Cherokee Circuit in the latter part of that year. He was Solicitor Gen eral till his appointment as Judge of the Cherokee Circuit in 1868; this last office he held at his death. All of which positions he filled with marked ability. Asa Judge his administra tive ability was equaled by hut few, and surpassed by none. A Republican in politics, he presid ed in a Circuit having a very large Democratic majority, commanded the respect and confidence of the entire Circuit. Your committee recommend the adoption of the following resolutions: That in the death of Judge J. It. Parrott we lament the loss of a most worthy and patriotic citizen, an able Judge, whose memory and example we would perpetuate to the end that his good deeds may live after him, and his bright example he handed down to future generations. That we most respectfully tender to his bereaved widow and children the unfeigned sympathies of the Bench and Bar of the Cherokee Cir cuit, whose confidence he so well de served arid so fully enjoyed. That we request that the Court have these proceedings entered on the min utes. That a copy of this report and reso lutions be furnished to Mrs. Parrott and family, and the newspapers of this Circuit be requested to publish them. That his Honor, C. D. McCutcheon be requested to adjourn this Court till to-morrow morning as a tribute of re spect to him who has adorned its Bench with such distinguished abili ty- D. A. WALKER, W. T. WOFFORD, J. A. W. JOHNSON, J. C. FAIN, E. D. GRAHAM, A. JOHNSON. It is ordered that this report of the committee be entered on the minutes of the Court and their request com plied with. And that in token of our respect for the memory ofthe deceas ed, this Court be now adjourned till to-morrow morning. C. D. McCUTCHEON, J. S. C. C. C.

The Columbus Sun is informed by “an officer connected with the force of Grant, Alexander & Cos., that of twenty-three person pardoned out of the penitentiary by Bullock, nineteen have been sent back for crimes com mitted since.” Why is a five dollar bank note more valuable than a five dollar gold piece? —Because, when you put it in your purse you double it and when you take it out it in-creases. Cartersville, Geo., July 13th, 1872. At a meeting of the Bar ofthe Cher rokee Circuit, held this day, for the purpose of taking some suitable ac tion in relation toour lamented broth er, Judge James Milner, the slid news of whose death has just reached us: On motion, Geu’l W. T. Wofford was called to the chair and A. M. Foute, Esq., requested to act as secre tary. Judge D. A.

An administration paper denied that there were .more than two Gree ley republicans in Aurora, Illinois. Immediately a call for a liberal con vention was circulated, and in less than two hours it was signed by eighty-six residents who voted for Grant in 1868. Further investigation shows fully three hundred of the re publican voting population were out spoken for Greeley. How the Cat Jumps in Michi gan.—The Kalamazoo (Mich.) Ga zette says: “Os course Michigan will go for Grant with the usual majority! At least, that’s what the * faithful ’ say, of course for outside effect. But be hind the curtain the thing is different. John J. Bagley, candidate for the nomination of Governor, came to this city to urge Vice-President Colfax to stump Michigan for Grant and the ‘Regulars.’ ‘Why,’ said Colfax, with evident surprise, ‘you don’t need any help in Michigan, do you?’ ‘Yes, by G—ehosephat, we do,’ re plied Bagley, ‘we want all the help we can get, and we shall need all we get, too, I tell you.’ ” Lost or Stolen— The files of the Cartersville Standard from Ju ly 28,1870, to Nov. 1, 1871.

The Combi nation Portable Fence is a portable fence that will not blow down , nor will cattle or horses push it over, but can be readily taken down and changed from place at pleasure All portable fences I have ever seen or heard of heretofore would blow down , and that is the very reason this has been invented and patent ed, and now offered for sale. But the impres sion prevails that a portable fence must needs blow down. This has been severely tried by wind and stock, and in no case has it failed. Being well satisfied that it will stand any thing short of a hurricane, I make this PROPOSITION : The first man that shall find his fence a fail ure— blown down— haying a farm right, and the fence made according to directions and proper ly put up. shall be entitled to a right for a whole county without charge, or if he has purchased and paid for a county right, he shall be entitled to Ten Counties Free of Charge, in either Or both cases to make their own se lections in Georgia or any other territory not disposed of. Application must be made with out delay, with reasonable evidence that the fence did actually blow o-rer, and that it was not in consequence of the sill slipping, or of the ground giving way under the sill, and I will assign and set over to him, a right for a whole county, or ten eounties, gkatis, as above spec ified. The right to this fence has been secured by Letters Patent for the United States, dated April 16,1872. (to run 17 years) and I am fully authorized to sell Farm, County and State right*. Please examine a specimen of this fence on the public square near the depot at Cartersville Georgia. 7 4 J. H. RUCKMAN, Cartersville, Ga. SAMUEL YEATMAN, Cartersville.

Pemberton, Taylor it Cos., Atlanta, Ga.; My daughter was taken on the 25th day of June, 1863, with what was supposed to be acute Rheumatism, and was treated for the same with no success. In March, following, pieces of hone began to work out of the right arm. and contin ued to appear till all the bone lrom the elbow to the shoulder joint came. Many pieces ol hone came out of the right foot and leg. The case was then pronounced obc of White Swelling. After having been confined to her bed about six years, and the case was considered hopeless, I was induced to try l)r. Pemberton’s Compound Extract of Stillingia, and was so well satisfied with its effects that I have continued the use of it until the present. My daughter was confined to her bed about six vears before she sat up or even turned over without help. She now sits up all day, and sews most of her time—has walked across the room. Her general health is now good, and I believe she will, as her limbs gain strength, walk well. I attribute her recovery, with the blessing of God, to the use of your invaluable medicine.
