the town of Cartersville who are in
terested in the security of the place
against the ravages of the destroying
flame, are requested to meet in the

The Executive Committee of the
the Central Cherokee Georgia Agri
cultural Association is requested to
meet in Col. Abda Johnson’s Office,
on Saturday next, the 24th, at 11 o’-
clock, A. M. As matters of impor
tance to the Association are to be con
sidered, it is desirable that there be a
full attendance.
By order of the President.
Fu.vNf'iM Fontajtne, Bec’y.
Wo learn that an effort is being
made to organize another county as
sociation at Adairsville. We hope
that our friends in and around that
place will assist in buildiug up the
one already established. Let us not
overdoe the thing by trying to build
up too many fair grounds. Bartow
county can well support one organi
zation, and make it second to no like
institution in tho State, and one of
which the county may justly feel
proud, but whenever we undertake
to run two, we shall fail in both, for,
in this matter, united, we stand, but,
divided, we fall.
Our worthy fellow-townsman, J no.
A. Terrell, having determined to
quit farming, is offering to sell his
farm in and near this place, contain
ing 32 acres, more or less, tolerably
well improved, splendid well of wa
ter, good orchard, Ac., together with
the present crop of 12 acres of corn
and about two of cotton, one mule,
cows, hogs, carriage and wagon,
farming tools, Ac. To any one wish
ing to live in town and carry on a
small farm, here is a chance. Call
on or address J. A. Terrell, Carters
ville, Ga., for further luirticulars.

Candidates who have announced
their names through the columns of
our paper for office, and who have
not already paid for the same, will
please call and settle, or send usss.oo.
We must have the cash for announc
ing names.
We see that the colored Methodist
of the Chureh North, are erecting
quite a creditable chapel in this place.
Au effort, we learn, is being made
to open another hotel in this place.
We learn that our citizens of the
colored persuasion are organizing a
band, fire and base ball company, in
this place. They meet at the signal
of the beat ing of the drums.
Our town council has done a good
thing in fixing up the side-walk on
Erwin street.
Our very clever and genial next
door neighbor, Col. J. G. M. Mont
gomery, is adding a “ condition ” to
his store-room. We are glad to wit
ness this evidence of the prosperity of
one in every way so worthy.
We are rejoiced to learn that our
town cemetery is to be enclosed by a
substantial fence and cleaned off.
Our farmers are to have a busy
season for some time to come. Fod
der is now ready for pulling, and, by
the time that is over, cotton picking
will commence. Already the fields
are whitening for the harvest.
Mrg. Wm. L. Row land has sent to this office
a Beet weighing seven pounds. Next.
Mr. B. F. Childers takes the premium sub
scription for the largest watermelon left at this
office this season—weighing 41 pounds.
Several bolls of open cotton have been left at
this office, by Vesty Harw ell and E. I>. Payne,
of this place. They say they have five acres
that will make four heavy bales. We do hope
that this paragraph will uot bring down the
price of cotton.
Mr. C.T. Shelman, true to instinct, ha* again
honored this office with a lot of tine peaches.
The Etowah Dragoons have fully organized’
and will have their first parade on Saturday,
the Sl»t instant, we learn.
Town Hoai.k*. —Our Town Coun
cil has determined to buy and erect
market scales on the public square,
for the benefit of the trading public.
This will be a great convenience in
weighing Produce, Iron, Ac. A thing
very much needed. We are glad to
see our council alive to the interests
of our growing town.
Our marketman, Yandivere, still
keeps our town supplied with nice,
fresh meats. His market is a great
convenience to our people, and the
town is highly favored by having
such clever and energetic gentlemen
at the head of this very necessary
department of business. In it we can
boast of as good market as can be
found in Cherokee Georgia. It is a
very nice thing to keep down stench
es about fresh meat markets in hot
weather. Mr. Yandivere and his son
are not remiss in their efforts to this
end, although they find it very diffi
cult at times. In the main they are
nice butcherers and have cleanly
dressed meats.
Our town council is making an ef
fort to negotiate a trade with Col.
Abda Johnson, in which they pro
pose to exchange their chamber in
the courthouse for his law office over
Messrs. Gilbert A Baxter’s hardware
store, a good move.
Mr. Win. Gouldsmith has purchas
ed the stock of Furniture heretofore
owned by Mr. James IT. Gilreath,
and has combined his stock with it,
and is now prepared to supply every
one in need with the nicest furniture at
the lowest prices, at J. H. Gilreath’s
old stand on the north side of west
Main street near Vaudivere’s market.
He also keeps on hand metalie and
wood coffins, cases and caskets, of idl
sizes, and is prepared to manufacture
furniture and wood coffins to order,
and also repair and renovate old fur
niture. We have no betterand more
worthy mechanics than Win, Gould- i
smith ami his son Theodore, familiar
ly known as “Strick” Gouldsmith.—
We heartily commend them to tho
patronage of our people.
Our town council has ordered the !
marshal to proceed forthwith to open j
Bartow street North to the colored
Baptist Church.
The Messrs. Baker A Patti llos have
secured the two new and handsome
brick store-rooms of Mr. Z. W. Jack
son’s, on west Maine street between
Messrs. Erwin, Stokely A Co.’s, and
Messrs, (filbert A Baxter’s corners,
and which are now being finished up,
and in one of them they have deter
mined to open out a general hard
ware and agricultural implement
stock and seed store, aud in the other
one a heavy -stock of groceries, pro
duce, and family supplies. So weare
credibly informed.
Messrs. I*. Marsh A Cos. will move
their stock of Crockery, Stone and
Glass ware, Oils and Lamps, Ac., into
their new storeroom above tiie bank,
on the Ist of September proximo, and
Messrs. Briant A Brown will move
their stock of Dry-Goods and Groce
ries into the room that Messrs. P.
Marsh A Cos. vacate.
The new, fire-proof, brick ware
house of Messrs. Howard A Gilreath,
is rapidly approaching completion.
A negro man was killed at Col.
Tumlin’s mills, near this place, on
Wednesday, the 14tli inst., by the
runaway of a team of mules with a
wagon. We have not learned any of
the particulars.
HoT Every body who owes us for the
Standard A Express are earnestly
requested to pay up, at once, as we
can’t afford to send it out on a credit
at $2 a-year. All who faii to pay up
will be charged $3 per annum. We
mean exactly what we say.
We have several communications
in hand, which we w’ere unable to get
into type, this week—-they will ap
pear in our next paper. We regret
it, but the delay in their publication
is unavoidable.
Read the article on the first page of
this paper on narrow gauge rail-roads.
It is well worth a perusal.
Our schools have all opened, with
the exception of Mrs. Brame’s, which
will open on the 2nd proximo. We
hope that they will all do well. There
are certainly children enough in and
around Cartersville, who ought to be
receiving instruction, to stock several
good schools.
All the white churches in this place
now use organs in their sabbath
schools.
One of the greatest exhorters in the
land, our highly esteemed Christian
brother, Geo. H. Giureath, is ex
pected to talk to our citizens, at the
Methodist Church, on next sabbath
afternoon.
A protracted meeting, we learn, is
soon to commence at the Presbyterian
church, in this place.
The bill to incorporate Cartersville
a city, has only passed the House. It
is doubtful if it reaches the Senate.
ATTENTION DEMOCRATS.
A Convention of the Democracy of
Bartow county is called to meet in the
Court House in Cartersville, at the
hour of 11 o'clock, A. M., on Saturday
the 31st of August.
It will bo the duty of said Conven
tion to nominate candidates for the
Lower House of the next Legislature.
Also, candidates for the various
county offices to be filled at the next
election.
Also, to nominate four delegates to
the Senatorial District Convention, to
nn et at some time hereafter to be in
dicated.
It is recommended by the Commit
tee that the Democratic voters of each
Militia district assemble on Saturday,
the 24th of August, for the purpose of
nominating Delegates to the County
Convention.
We would respectfully urge upon
the people to turn out in force to their
various district meetings, and confer
freely together so as to send a delega
tion of representative men to the con
vention.
Do not stay away, and afterwards
grumble about “packed conventions”
Go there, and pack them yourselves.
You have the power if you would only
use it.
See to it that your delegations be
composed of your best men —men you
are willing should represent you, and
then, as good Democrats, vote for the
candidates they select.

ROWE HUMPHRIES.
On last Saturday, Rowe Humphries,
who for some time past has been un
der sentence of death for the murder
of his child, and who was to be hang
ed on Friday, the 13th of Sept, next,
was tried before a special jury for lu
nacy, and his sentence suspended on
that ground. Wethink the verdict is
a righteous one, for those who are in
timately acquainted with the convict
feel well assured that his mental ca
pacities are far below mediocrity, and
no good end could be subserved by
the execution of such a miserable
creature. We candidly think that
the proper way to dispose of him
would be to commute his punishment
to imprisonment in the penitentiary
for life, or to send him to the Lunatic
Asylum. Our promising young
friend, It. W. Murphy, has, without
any remuneration, done all that he
could to save the unfortunate wretch
from hanging, and deserves the
thanks of the merciful and humane.
REVIVALS.
We are rejoiced to hear of gracious
revivals in different parts of the coun
try. Many are entering the ark of
safety, and starting for the kingdom
of heaven. A good meeting at Fel
ton’s Cross Roads was closed last week,
and much good, we trust, was done.
Amongst others who joined the church
during the meeting, was a substantial
and useful citizen, who, w f e suppose,
had reached his “three score years
and ten!” Another revival, with
good prospects, is going on at pres
ent, at Asbury Chapel, near this place.
Meetings of extraordinary interest
have just closed at Rowland Springs
and Stamp Creek Baptist churches.—
All over the hind we hear “Come over
and help us ere we die.” God sj>eed
the good work.
DEATH OF AN OLD LADY.
Wo learn that Mrs. Sarah Cobb of
Cherokee county, died on the 12th
ir.tt., at the advanced age of 91 yeara
She had been a consistent member of
the primitive Baptist church for many
years, and died as she had lived, in
hope of a glorious immortality beyond
the grave. Wt knew her well for many
years, and esteemed her as a kind
friend, a good neighbor and au hum
ble Christian. May all her friends and
relatives follow her example, and meet
her in heaven.
DEATH OF A. W. SHARP, ESQ.
()n returning from Gainesville last
week, we were shocked and pained to
learn that our friend White Sharp,
Esq., of Cherokee, had been suddenly
taken from the walks of life and call
ed to his long home. We understand
that on Monday of last week he took
a drink of cider, and soon after com-
plained of a severe pain in the region
of the heart; a hemorrhage soon fol
lowed, and early the next morning
he closed his earthly existence. He
leaves a wife, several small children
and numerous friends to mourn his
loss. For many years we have been j
intimately acquainted with the de
ceased, and loved him as one of our
best and truest friends. He was a
strict member of the Presbyterian
church, a good neighbor, an honest
man, and a useful citizen. Just one
week before his death, we met him at
Canton in good health, and shook his
friendly hand. Alas! how little did
we think that he would be called
away so soon! Farewell! dear friend,
and may we take warning and “ be
also ready” when we are called to
die; that we may meet at last
Where “ sickness, sorrow pain and
death
Are felt and feared no more!”
Dikd, on the 15th inst., near Can
ton, Ga., after a long and painful ill
ness, Judge M. A. Keith, who was an
old and much respected citizen of
Cherokee county. Judge Keith was a
man of strong, common sense, a prac
tical and successful farmer, and was
often honored by the people of his
county with positions of trust and re
sponsibility. He was more than once,
we believe, elected to a seat in the
Legislature, and was ever a jealous
and faithful advocate of the people’s
rights. May he rest in peace.

RADICAL FRAUDS IN NORTH
CAROLINA.
The evidence of frauds by the Radi
ails in the North Carolina election is
piling up.
These counties overvoted their regis
tered number: Bladen, 46; Cumber
land, 521; Duplin, 52; Franklin, 725;
Halifax, 852; Lenoir, 183; North
hampton, 184; Robeson, 171; Samp
son, 145.
Thus in nine counties we see fraud
ulent votes to the amount of over
3,000 —enough to give the Democrat
ic candidate the majority by 2,000.
A TRIP TO NORTH-EAST GA.
On the morning of the 7th inst., in
company with our better half and a
few of our children, we took the train
for Gainesville, Ga., via Atlanta.
After a pleasant ride of a few’ hours,
we found ourselves in the “Gate
City,” and soon obtained comfortable
quarters at the “Air-line House,”
which is kept by our clever old friend,
C-apt. J. L. Keith, and Mr. and Mrs.
Ryan. If good sere, good beds and
kind attention constitute a good ho
tel, the “Air-line House,” in our
judgment, fills the bill exactly. In
the evening after our arrival we
strolled around the principal streets of
the city, saw many strange faces, a
few familiar ones, a good many
strange things, a heap of goods, tricks
and notions. Early on the following
morning we were transferred to the
Air-line depot, and in due time were
on our w ay eastward.
In a little while w r e were at Nor
cross, a pleasant station 20 miles from
Atlanta. Here “ cousin John Thrash
er” keeps a number one Breakfast
House. Everybody knows “ cousin
John,” and his numerous relatives all
regard him as one of the cleverest
men in the w’orld. May prosperity
attend him and his House forever!
The Air-Line road is in fine condi
tion, but the trains take their time,
as they have no particular connec
tions to make. We heard a passen
ger remark, by way of illustration,
that the conductor, engineer and oth
ers connected with the train, fre
quently stop to play marbles. He also
declared that the cattle refuse to get
off the track, thinking it to be the du
ty of engine to go round them ! We
saw an old ox contesting the matter,
but we concluded that he was too
poor to get out of the way.
We arrived at the city of Gaines
ville at 10 o’clock, and w’ere pleased
to see at that beautiful place, so many
evidences of thrift and prosperity.
Gainesville has good hotels, fine
schools, enterprising and accommoda
ting merchants, mechanics and pro
fessional men; together with a first
rate newspaper, the “ Gainesville Ea
gle,” edited and published by our es
teemed and accomplished old friend,
John E. Redwine, Esq. Long may
he wave, and long may the “ Eagle”
soar!
Gainesville is a good market for
north-east Georgia. It is the greatest
place for chickens w r e ever saw, and
we could not help envying the preach
er in charge on that circuit. What
a fine time he must have indulging
in that dish for which his class is so
proverbially fond!
At Gainesville we were met by a
relative with a vehicle, and proceeded
north about eight miles, where we
spent a week very pleasantly with
our friends and relations. During the
time we went to Yellow Creek (Bap
tist) church, where we heard preach
ed the funeral of a Mr. Landrum,
who died sometime last winter. The
preacher’s name was McMurray; his
discourse was plain, sensible and
practical. He was followed by the
Rev. Jos. Chapman, who delivered a
very goou e.vluri ition, but rather
lengthy under the circumstances.
After the religious exereis were over
the masonic fraternity formed a pro
cession, marched to the grave, (which
had been partially opened) and went
through with the solemn and im
pressive ceremony which is usual at
the burial of a brother. This matter
was postponed last winter on account
of the severity of the weather. On the
following day, which was the Sab
bath, we attended a Baptist church,
where we found a good large congre
gation waiting for the preacher to ar
rive ; but from some cause he failed to
appear, and we were strongly solicit
ed to act as his substitute on the occa
sion. But there was no Bible to be
had, and we were at some loss to
know how to proceed. A good old
brother, however, came to our relief
and kindly furnished us with a text ,
which we considered an appropriate
one, and we proceeded with the exer
cises in our imperfect way. A good
brother Murray of our “faith and
order,” a teacher at Sparta, Ga., be
ing on a visit to the neighborhood,
concluded the services; and we trust
that some good seed was sown, as
tears of penitence, as well as tears of
joy, were seen.
That portion of Hall county which
lies north of the Chattahoochie river
is a good section. The lands on Little
river and Wahoo creek are very pro
ductive, and the crops growing on
them would compare favorably with
any that we have seen anywhere.
They are owned by the Thompsons,
the .Welchels and others, who are
most excellent citizens.
On returning to Atlanta, and hav
ing a few hours of leisure, we went,
in company with a young friend, to
the Kimball House, to survey its
splendor and magnificent proportions.
It is indeed a collossal superstructure.
Having a disposition to rise in the
world, we went to the centre of the
building, rang a little bell, took a seat
in a comfortable car or box, and began
to go up. In a short time we reached
the fifth story, dismounted and re
turned in a more leisurely manner
down a long succession of winding
stairs.
Everybody ought to see this monu
ment of carpet-bag theft and extrava
gance.
We left Atlanta on the 10 o’clock
night train, got to Acworth at mid
night, stopped at the “Litchfield
House,” and were hospitably enter
tained by Col. “Litcli,” the gentle
manly proprietor and his kind and
estimable lady.
We were home again by 11 o’clock
the next day, and could say,
“ Be it ever so humble,
There is no place like home!”
Dominations.
“ Vox popruli, Vox Dei, 1 ' is a good
old heathen truism; and we hold that
it is equally true at the present day.
Our nominations, by conventions, for
the various “ Fall elections’’ must'soon
be mads, and the delegates to the
same should be appointed at an early
day. And the question arises: How
will these delegates be chosen ? We
say, all the time, by the people of the
Ten Districts of Bartow county. It is
the right of the people alone Away
with a few scheming men getting to
gether and appointing delegates in
their own interest. Let the people
speak. Let time-serving men stand
aside, while the masses walk up in
their manhood, and say who shall go
to the convention as delegates. When
the masses do this we shall hear no
more of packed conventions and wire
pullings. They have had their day;
and let them die the death.
Let the people meet at their several
precincts and appoint their managers,
| as in legal elections, and there receive
the ballots with perfect honesty, and
| proclaim the result in accordance
thereto. Then we shall have no more
r boltings and running over onr nomi
! nations.
We are aware that this plan is ob
jected to by some. But we will, with
all candor, tell you, fellow citizens of
Bnrtow, that he who objects to this
plan, would not do to be trusted, for
he distrusts the people. He that
would keep yon away from choosing
your delegates to the convention,
would, if he had the chance, keep you
away from the legal elections, were
you not willing to vote as he desires.
Circulate the call for the meeting
and wait not some man’s behest who
makes delay for his own or his friend’s
interest; so shall you be exercising
your owu due and just rights.
Uuder this arrangement, should any
fail to come out, and afterwnrds he
dissatisfieJ, he would have none to
blame but himself. The above plan
is one that commends itself to all
honest men; and we hope it will be
adopted by all the Districts.

Messrs. Editors:— We observe from
your columns that numerous of our
fellow-citizens are candidates for the
Legislature, aud since all of them can
not be elected, the choice of two from
among them becomes a necessity, and
we respectfully beg leave to remind
the people, that in making the nomi
nations, they should remember that
the current of our political affairs has
not yet resumed so placid a course as
to make it a matter of small impor
tance, much less of iodiffereDce, who
should represent us. There are many
grave questions to be considered, and
acted upon by the Legislature, aud in
making up that body we hold that
the qualifications oi the candidates to
deal with these questions, should have
preponderance over all minor consid
erations, not excepting even our indi
vidual preferences. Among these
necessary qualifications, are, first,
common honesty; second, intellectual
ability; third, past record for devo
tion to the Democratic party, and la,
bor iu its preservation aud promotiou
aud fourth, uncompromising inde
pendence of character and action.
We are glad to say that iu ull of
these requisites cacti and every one of
the aspirants of who we have any
knowledge, are all right, but if there
is one of them possessed of promi
nence over the rest is it not Dr. 8. W.
Lelaud—tho ever bold and faithful
Nemo? We admit them all to be
equal iu the first qualification. We
know that the Dr. has no superior iu
the second. As to the third, no man
living has been, or could have been
more tenaciously devoted to the party
aud its principles or more faithful and
ituli fatig.ibie in his labor and zeal for
their promotion, aud if tho good peo
ple of this county will take the troub
le to review and investigate his rec
ord, they will find that when we were
utterly submerged in a sea of political
troubles, aud threatened even with
personal danger—when some others
were quailing, trembling and yielding
their political faith they were proud
to proclaim ; permanently the faithful
Nemo then, as now, stood unmov
ed and immovable, independent,
bold, defiant, battling bravely in the
front ranks of the party, in all places
and on all occasions, with tongue and
pen for the principles deemed most
vital and beneficial to our down-trod
den people; and no man can point to
a single instance in which even the
shadow of apostacy from the faith
has been visible in his career. We
feel that the people will not fail to
demonstrate their appreciation of his
past fidelity and usefulness, nor to
avail themselves of these indispensa
ble traits, by supporting him for the
next Legislature. Os this thing his
whole past furnishes the most ample
assurance, viz.: That he will serve
them with honesty, fidelity, ability
and independence; and in perusing
this article, let them ask themselves
this question: Are the statements
true or false? and let them govern
themselves accordingly.

EXTREMES MEET.
1 he Little Rock Gazette, of the 13th,
says the following letter was received
by a prominent Radical in that city a
few days before that date:
Washington, D. C., July 30,1872. —
Dear Sir: Please send enclosed circu
lar to active Democrats in your dis
trict who do not support Mr. Greeley
and will co-operate in the Louisville
Convention. Send me a list of such
men in each county immediately.
J. M. EDMUND3,
Secretary.
The same paper states that Mr. Ed
munds is Postmaster at Washington,
a member of the Resident Republican
Committee at Washington, and Presi
dent of the Union League Association
in 1868. The circular urges the organi
zation of the straight Democracy and
the sending of delegates to the Louis
ville Convention.
Comment is unnecessary.— Tdeg.
Wonder why the Grant party is so
solicitous about the Blauton-Duncan
Convention, which is ap
pointed to meet in Louisville, Ky., in
September ? The Radicals seem to
be more concerned about it than the
‘‘straights’’ themselves. Upon that
convention hinges Grant’s chances of

A Feriloa# Season.
Glorious and delightful a# the Summer weatli- ,
cr is, its tropical heat is a severe trial to the vi- j
tal powers. Even the strongest are sometimes
prostrated by its effects. The common phrase
applied to this condition of the body is “ gener
al debility.” Now, general debility arises from
and includes a variety of ailments. The liver
is more or less affected, the bowels are either :
constipated or too much relaxed, the stomach
hut half performs the work of digestion, the ap- |
petite is poor, and the spirits depressed. This i
is what is called general debility. It is a j
disarrangement of all the physical functions, j
and requires as a remedy a medicine that will !
regulate them a liostetter’s Stomach Bit
ters is specially adapted to this pul-pose. Its !
general operation is not confined to asingleor- j
gan. If the liver is affected, it restores its tone. 1
If the stomach is torpid, it regenerates it. If
the nerves are tremulous and weak, it braces
and reinforces them. If the miml, which ever
sympathizes with the body, is gloomy and des
pondent, it relieves the difficulty, and soon
brings the whole mechanism of the body into
harmony with the laws of health.
There is no civilized nation in the Western
Hemisphere in which the utility of llostetter’s
Stomach Bitters as a tonic, corrective, and an
ti-billions medicine, is not known and appre
ciated. Throughout the Tropics it is consider
ed, bothbv the people and the professions, the
standard specific. While it is a medicine for
all seasons and all climates, it is especially
suited to the complaints generated by the
weather, being the purest and best vegetable
stimulant iu tne world.
Beware of the Bitters made ot acrid and dau
gerous materials, which unscrupulous parties
are endeavoring to foist upon the people. Their
name is legion, and the public has no guaran
tee that they are not poisonous. Adhere to the
tried remedy, Hostettcr’s Bitters, sold only iu
glass, and never in kegs or barrels. 8-I—lni

It Is a mark of the unsuccessful man, that
he iuvarialily locks his stable door when the
horse has been stolen. This sort of wisdom
never thinks about bodily health until it is
gone. But just as much as any disease has be
comes seated, the power of the system to resist
and throw it off is weakened; hence time is all
important. For dyspepsia, all diseases of the
liver, stomach, skin and kidneys, and all that
begin in vitiated blood, do not wait until the
trouble is confirmed, but attack it by a timely
use of Dr. Walker’s California Vinegar Bit

CASE OF COL. J. C. Bit ANSON.
Kingston, (. toiu.i a, September 15,1872.
Doctor J. S. Pemberton:
Dkak Sin—lt gives me pleasure
to furnish you with an account of
the remarkable cure which I have experienced
Horn the u»e of your Compound Extract of
Stillingia. For sixteen years J have been a
great »offerer trom Scrofula iu its most
distressing forms. 1 have been confined to my
room and bed for fifteen years with scrofulous
ulcerations. Suet was ray condition—tar more
painlul and distressing than language can
describe. Most of the time I was unable to
rise trom bed. The most approved remedies
for such case# hail been used, and the mo-l
eminent physicians consulted, wilboat any
decided benefit. Thus prostrated, distressed
desponding, I was advis“<ll>y Doctor Ajte of
Floyd county, Georgia, to commence lira use
of jour Compound Extract of Stillingia.
Language is insufficient, to describe the relief
1 obtained from the use of the Stillingia as it
| is to convey un adequate idea of the micdisity
! of my suffering before using your medicine;
sufficient to say, "I am cured of all jam,” of
alt disease, w ith nothing to obstruct the active
pursuit of my profession. More than eight
mouths have elapsed since this remarkable
cure, w ithout any return of the disease.
For the above statement 1 refer to any
gentleman iu Bartow county. Georgia, and to
the members of the bar ol Cherokee Circuit,
who arc acquainted with me. I shall ever
remain, sir, with the dcupcst gratitude,
Y'uur obedient servant, J.C. BRANSON.
