LITTLE RIVER CAMP-MEET
ING.
()n Friday last, in company with
our friends, Rev. J. T. Norris, W. D.
and Willie Trammell, we went to the
Little River Camp-meeting, held in
the South-eastern portion of Cherokee
county, at the pleasant little village
of Trickum. We remained until
Tuesday morning, and were all well
pleased with our visit and with the
meeting. “Ye Local” met with
many of his old friends, with whom
he had often met in formeryears, and
many wen his pleasant greetings.
There was present on the occasion
quite an able corps of ministerial
brethren. Among the number we
were pleased to find our genial and
talented old friend, Judge Dennis F.
Hammond, ex-mayor of Atlanta, fa
mtiliarly known as “ ten dollars and
cost." He is a bold Christian soldier,
a logical and forcible speaker, and
rendered valuable service to the cause
of his master. Judge Hammond’s
son, who is said to lie a young man of
fine abilities and of extraordinary
promise, was also present, but owing
to a slight affection of the throat,
he was prevented from preaching.
He has just finished his collegiate
course, and is now about entering u:
on a theological course in a univer
sity in another State. We predot for
him a career of great usefulness.
The accomplished, the zealous and
the useful Mayson of the Acworth
circuit was on hand and preached
with great power and acceptability ;
also the Rev. Mr. Bond of Columbus,
who did efficient service in lus some
what peculiar way; and last, though
by no means least our modest friend
and neighbor, J. T. N., who “proved
himself to be a workman that need
eth not to be ashamed,” for be won
for himself “ golden opinions.”
The Revs. Hullivan, Davis and Da
venport also labored faithfully and
successfully for the good of the people
and the glory of God, and will not
lose their reward.
There was a large crowd present on
the Sabbath, and, as is usual under
such circumstances, not much visible
good was accomplished, hut the meet
ing afterwards gradually increased in
interest, and on Monday night the
power of the Holy Spirit was glori
ously manifest, and we have no doubt
but that much fruit was the final re
sult of the meeting, which was to close
on Wednesday morning.
There are to be two or three other
Camp-meetings in the county during
the season, and we hope that all of
our ministerial brethren about Car
tersville will endeavor to attend them,
that they may dispense blessings and
receive the same in return.
< )ur Cherokee friends are great folks
for Camp-meetings, and for every
thing that is good and useful.
B.
FATAL ACCIDENT.
Balim Dobbs, a youth of 18 years,
son of David Dobbs, of Cherokee
county, on Tuesday the 20th inst.,
went to a neighbor's house to borrow
a gun, and in the act of raising it up,
it was discharged, the ball entering
near an eye and passing entirely
through the head. lie was alone in
the room when the accident occurred,
and was heard to cry for help. He
said nothing more, and died in a few
hours.
The untimely death of young Dobbs
has cast a gloom over the neighbor
hood, and this sad affair should be a
warning to boys who carelessly han
dle old fire arms; and it should also
| teach them the importance of being
j always ready to die, for they know
I not how suddenly death may come.
B.
Died, suddenly, in Cherokee coun
ty, Ga., on the 2Gth inst., Mrs. Hut
son Wiley. She leaves behind ahus
band, a large family of children, and
many friends to mourn her loss' May
they receive divine consolation in this
the sad hour of their 1 leroavement and
distress. B.

HONOR TO WHOM HONOR IS
DUE.
Messrs. Editors : —.Vs the time for
! the election of county officers np
j proaches, each citizen feeling an in
j terest in such matters (and who
| should not,) is expected naturally
| enough to take on more ardor in his
| efforts to perform his part; indeed
| this is considered a duty that every
| man owes to good government at
home, and to the justness of which
verdict we make our bow. The
trouble heretofore has been, the readi
ness with which our candidates have
imagined that this is a debt due to
themselves, which the people are
seeking an opportunity to pay off,
when the fact is they are only essay
ing to make up a conscientious record
and balance sheet between themselves
and the country.
The question is, what part should 1
the common yeomanry take in the
adjustment of the claims of the sever- j
al candidates Before the people. Is !
it wise to join in the useless clamor
for petty conventions? This may
well be doubted, in mast of which it
is well known the aspirant who can
tug out to the caucus the greatest
number of his friends is not only the j
best represented there, but places
himself by this means much nearer
the enchanted grounds of the com
mon wire-puller. Such men are too
often really nominated before they
leave home, because they can usually j
count the noses of their own cut and
dried friends, and compare the fig
ures of a result, before it really trans
pires. Who will not say, the stake is
too often won in such scrambles, even
before the bet is made, and is this
fair?
This is truly au age of progress.
We are forming new political allian
ces, or rather we are tearing up all
the old ones, and the people are
struggling with some credit to them
selves to fix up shelf room for more
than scores, who have rode the peo
ple in this way until they have al
most forgotten how to walk. What
a convenience. What a relief it will
he if new roads can be opened in
some other direction, and some of
these equestrians induced to walk
therein. Let us think sensibly over
our present status as it really is.
Shall we in this matter of distribut
ing county officers adhere to an ohl
policy which has served out its time,
which was worn out twenty years
ago at both knees and elbows, and
exploded at every corner as if strick
en by a thunder bolt from all the
points of the compass; or shall we
advocate our own straight-out Dem
ocratic doctrine of a multiplicity of
candidates. It takes no Solomon to
see that the people are in favor of
this. Let every man run for an office
that wants a place, and is willing to
risk his own defeat at the polls. It is
manly to acknowledge the truth and
come squarly out and say, “1 want
the office without the voluntary aid
of wire-pullers.” The people then
can choose for themselves the best
qualified, the most deserving man,
equal '.j . • Y,o.s an a convention could
d«> so for them. Tm.s would seem to
he a satisfactory course in most coun
ty matters; for there is very rarely
any question of politics involved in
these local issues. It is the man the
people want when they come to the
administration of home affairs, not
the partizan. If let alone they would
not call for the services of the politi
cian or wire-puller oue time in a
dozen. Why then is it necessary for
the common people to submit longer
even to a time honored custom
which they themselves object to. It
will be admitted on all hands that
capacity, integrity and fidelity ought
not to be ignored in the distribution
of county patronage, yet one of your
honest plain sailing, deserving men
would stand as good a chance to be
struck by lightning in the winter
time as to get a proper consideration
of his claims before any ordinary
caucus. Such men may know but
little about engineering State or Na
tional politics; they may be slow in
comprehending a complex system of
representative government, and
know as little about the true purpose
of the partizan, (and the less the bet
ter. ) They may be strangers to the
intrigues by which the politician but
too often triumphs over better men
and true principal, they may be too
pure minded, too industrious in pro
viding for a dependent household to
waste time logging it around and
boring both friends and foes, fixing
up selfish triggers to throw the
weight of a caucus upon their own
j heads. Does these things disqualify,
1 and shall a good man be left out of
| place at homo because he is distin
i guished by the absence of tricks, that
! everybody frowns upon as soon as
the election is over. No, let us stop
and think, and decree in the might of
a whole people, that the offices shall
neither be monopolized nor good
men have their chance for a share of
the places utterly destroyed because
they will not stoop to an immodest
scramble for the prestige of a caucus.
Let caucusses die in our home affairs
at least. They have served their
day, and done as much harm and as
little good as we may expect from
any other course. If the epitaphs of
these caucusses were fully written
out, the text of it would la? “con
ceived in sin and born in iniquity.”
It may be imagined by some who
hold the triggers that this course
would breed confusion and let in a
man from the ranks of the opposition.
Why, suppose you apply the same
principle to the opposition also, the
matter would then seem to be in the
neighborhood of the fair tiling, for it
must be remembered that there
is quite as many on that side as this,
who court the smiles of power, and
would not shun a place ; and more
over if there should be a dozen candi
dates on each side the conduct of the
people before the election would
point as certainly to the prominent
and acceptable man as a caucus can
ever do, sufficiently so to afford an
opportunity to a modest man to re
tire in good order.
Voter, when you come to cast your
ballot even for county officers, look
around von and see who it is that
you yourself consider worthy aud en
titled to your suffrage. If you should
adjudge that the country owes a place
to any man, on account of distin
guished services in her hour of trial,
consider well his claims, and don’t
wait for a caucus to label your vote
and guide your hand to the box. If
he should chance to boa disabled
soldier of the Last Cause, the case is
still stronger for him if properly
viewed. Put yourself in his position
and he in yours, and see us all come
out of the war with the loss of the
great stake, and you scarcely with
life—the misfortunes incident to the
great struggle doubled upon you—
your sleeve is now empty—your con
stitution all wrecked and shattered—
your leg I- 16ft upon a foreign field
yon are maimed for life, no longer
able to contend with your neighbor
in the great battles of this world, up
on which the very bread for hungry
ones may depend. Would you, in
this condition expect your fellow
citizens to forget your qualifications
to fill a small office, because you are
not skilled as a wire-puller? -Vo,
never. Would you expect them to
forget the services by which this ca
lamity was brought upon you in
the beloved and common cause ? Is
there ant/ answer to this hut "no?" Sol
dier, where 1 are you, can you forget
these things? Then, as you would
expect other men to do unto you, do
ye, even so, unto them, no matter
what a caucus may say, or want tc
say. Voter, you are the sovereign
in this country. Stand upon thedig
nity of your position.

SCHOOL HISTORY OF THE UNI
TEDSTATES, BY ALEXANDER
H. STEPHENS.
Having carefully examined the
above recently issued text-book of
history by Mr. Stephens, we are pre
pared, after an experience of several
years in teaching, to recommend it to
instructors, private students, and
general readers, as being a most ex
cellent work.
The very first chapter of the book,
which treats of the Discovery of
America and which is preliminary to
the subject proper, is sufficient to show
that this is an original work—a work
upon which have been bestowed
much real labor and much sound
thinking. If we compare this chap
ter with its counterpart in themajority
of the School Histories of the United
States, wc will find that it contains,
not only all that is important found
in the others, but also a variety of new j
facts that are equally important to the .
student; and, judging the whole by
this standard, we perceive that its 1
author, instead of confining himself to j
those stereotyped facts found in the j
most of school histories, has, after due ;
reading and critical research, been
guided solely by his own judgment in
its compilation. These new facts,
moreover, compiled with such care
and by such a masterhand, apart from
their intrinsic worth to the student,
will make the subject highly interest-
ing and instructive to many who now
regard it as insipid or stale,
j Again, this is a history of truth,
written by u great American states
man who lias been an active partici
pant in many of the scenes of Con
! gressioual legislation that he sbgruph
-1 ically describes—a true patriot whose
! life, in the service of his country, has
been devoted to the propagation and
maintenance of the principles of con
stitutional republican liberty. Not
least among his patriotic achieve
ments, is the preparation of this ster
ling text-book, which, when intro
duced in our common schools, Acad
emies and Colleges, will insure a cor
rect apprehension by our youths of
those great principles which animated
their forefathers in their struggles for
independence and which subsequent
ly made them the freest and most
prosperous people on the globe.
It has, for a long time, been conce
ded, indeed it is an old maxim, that
“ earliest impressions are the most
lasting.” To counteract, therefore,
the pernicious political dogmas
which, ever since the war, have been
proselyting unthinking minds, and
to instil in our youths correct views
of the constitution, government and
progress of this great country, this
book of impartial truth should be
placed in the hands of pupils as’ soon
as they are able to read fluently. The
simplicity of its arrangement and the
perspicurity of its style, adapt it, un
der a judicious instructor, to the use
of very young students; while as to
the matter per se it may be studied
with profit in any of our colleges.
The work, “ for proper system,” is
divided into two Books. The first
giving,the history of the Colonies;
the second, that of the States. The
whole, embraced in one superb, sub
stantial volume, 12m0., 513 pages, is
faultless in typography and illustra
tion. The Coat of Arms of every
State in the Union, the portraits of
the most prominent men in our his
tory among which are those of all the
Presidents, and some other attractive
engravings, make up the illustra
tions. Teacher.

played here, on the 2fth inst., be
tween the Cherokee Club, of Calhoun,

A Perilous Season.
Gloriouipaud delightful as the Summer weath
er is, its tropical heat is a severe trial tothevi
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
lmt half performs the work of digestion, the ap
petite is poor, and the spirits depressed. This
is what is called general debility. It is a
disarrangement of all the physical'functions,
and requires as a remedy a medicine that will
regulate them a llostetter’s Stomach Bit
ters is specially adapted to this purpose. Its
general operation is not confined to a single or
gan. If the liver is affected, it restores its tone,
if the stomach is torpid, it regenerates it. 11'
the nerves are tremulous anil weak, it braces
and reinforces them. If the mind, 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 ho civilized nation in the Western
Hemisphere in which the utility of llostetter’s
Stomach Bitters as a tonic, corrective, and an
ti-billious is Jtwt known anil appre
ciated Throughout the Tropics it ii on- .dot -
ed, both by the people and the pjjoi'e--i,ip., .the,,
standard sped Ire. While it is' a m jdi -iiie for
till season- and all climates, it i- especially
suited to the complaints generated by the
weather, being the purest and be-t vegetable
stimulant in the world.
Beware of the Bitters made ot acrid and dan
gerous materials, which unscrupulous parties
are endeavoring to foist upon the people.. Their
name is logitwf. and Hie public has no%rt;tTjrn
tee that they are not poisonous. Adhere to the
tried remedy, llostetter’s Bitters, sold only in

REMARKABLE CURE OF

CASE OF C. JUtAX. VfLV.
Kingston, Geokuia, September 15, 187*.
Imctor J. S. J'fhtbfrtoH:
Djjaii Sik—Jt gives me pleasure
to lurnisli you with an account of
the remarkable cure w Inch I liave experieuetd
Ironi the use of your Compound Extract of
stillingia. For sixteen years 1 have been a
great sufferer from Scrofula iu its most
distressing forms. 1 have been confined to my
loom and tied for fifteen years with scrofulous
ulcerations. Such was luy condition—lar more
i>nintul and distressing; than language can
describe. Most of the time 1 was unable to
rise lrom bed. Iho most approved remedies
ior such eases had been used, and the most
cm blent physicians consulted, without any
decided beueti|* Thus prostrated, distressed
desponding, I was advised by .Doctor Ayer, ot*
fr loyd county, Georgia, to commence the use
ot your Coin pound Extract of Stillingia.
Language is liisuilicieat to describe tbe relief
f obtained from the use of the Stillingia as it
is to convey an adequate idea of the intensity
•>i »ay suffering before usiug your medicine;
to say, *• i am cured of all pain.* 1 of
aU disease, with nothing to obstruct the active
pursuit of ray profession. More than eight
months have elapsed since this remarkable
cure, without any return of the disease.
ror the above statement 1 refer to any
gentleman in llartow county, Georgia, and to
the members of the bar of Cherokee Circuit,
who are acquainted with me. i shall ever
remain, sir, with the deepest gratitude.
Vour obedient servant, J.U Jilt ANSON.
