The employees of the Kimball House have presented Mr Crittenden OUR BARTOW COUNTY FAIR. Wat it a success t What were its merits. I fear that it is not considered a suc cess, unless it may be slightly profita ble to the stockholders on account of being relieved of the necessity of pay ing out for very many premiums for the reason of the spare entries. The exhibition of stock—horse*, mule*, cattle, hogs and sheep was sur prisingly small. Still it was gratify ing to see a few fine pairs of harness horses and mules and some beautiful colts. A fine Jersey bull and some blooded heifers were on exhibition. A small show of plows, threshers, grain drills, harrows, reapers and mowers; and the Secretary with commedable interest required some of these implements to be tested on the ground. The mowing seemed to be a success and the turning plows did excellent work, driven by two men, to each team a heavy yoke of oxen and a fine pair of mules except that they were run too shallow—steering dear of the hard pan and yet the draft was apparently very heavy on the stock. That wonderful pacer “ Mack” kept his laurels green by a fresh stampede around the track in about 2:40 time, and so steady was his motion that it would seem a ba son of milk on bis back would hardly spill over. The Tournament was witnessed with pleasure. The riding was grace ful and no accident to any of the fine horsemen. Inside the building the display was magnificent. All that some of the ladies of Bartow county could do to tempt both the eye and taste was there displayed in the most fascinating style. Fruits, jellies, pre serves and honey but no milk (which was all that was lacking.) The vege table world was represented as none but the people of Cherokee Georgia can do. The display of rich golden butter bespoke the luxuriant growth of the clover and grasses in this sec* tion in the most forcible terms that could be employed. Last but not least the many articles of home manufacture on exhibition was a clear index of the sterling worth of the ladies of Georgia. But the capping of the climax was the worthy lady from Cherokee coun ty with her lovely trio of six months old little Hebes. All honor to this mother, and fond hopes that the little darlings will continue to grow and thrive and live to be a blessing to their parents. The merits of this fair association consist simply in these facts: The stockholders in paying out their mon ey for the getting up of this enter prise were moved by a praiseworthy motive to benefit their neigh bors in an agricultural point of view, to stimu late stock raising and home manufac tures and to try to promote social feel ing one with another. The officers have worked from the beginning for little or no pay what ever, the satisfaction or dissatisfac tion given. The company have shown sound judgment in selecting and purchasing and improving grounds, splendidly and conveniently located and accessible to most parts of the county. They have as yet had no return for their outlay, simply be . cause the farmers, they for whose benefit mainly the thing was project ed, has given the association the cold shoulder from the beginning. This is unfortunate. If the management has not been such as to recommend itself to them, is it not their duty and interest to come forward and make some effort themselves to change and help out matters. The way has been open, stock offered freely, and they have been urged to come forward and subscribe and aid in building up this home enterprise. They know that we could make the best county fair in the State, and they know moreover that they pull back and stand afar off and turn up their noses, not lifting one pound’s weight, leaving a few men to do everything. It is to be hoped a great change can be made by the next season. The young men and women of the county can and ought to better themselves. Let us all pull together, and we shall have at the next annual fair a fine exhibi tion and a friendly meeting and greeting from all over this county and the adjacent counties. * The Toubnament. —We learn that arrangements are on foot for a bril liant tournament in connection with the State Fair—the Agricultural Soci ety offering $250 in premiums, which will be increased by individual sub scriptions. The Sabre clubs of other cities, and General Young’s Club at Cartersville will be invited. The Kimba ll House.- —Col. W. M Nichols has taken charge of this large establishment. He is well known all over Georgia—a most agreeable and popular gentleman. Quite a number of our best citizens dined with him and gave him a most cordial welcome.— Atlanta Sun. Com? Crop of 1772. —Grain men of Chicago estimate the corn crop of this year at twelve hundred and fifty mil - lion bushels—the largest ever raised in the United States. They have had a killing frost in all the North-Eastern States, but corn is generally out of the rea of harm. The Atlanta Sun publishes an ac count of a young man who married a young lady away from her father’s house, carried her to some fashiona ble watering-place, where they re mained some days, and then accom panied her to the door of her parental domicile, where he deserted her. The Presbyterian Synod of Georgia met in Albany on the 13th. Her Name.— The name of the wo man who committed suicide in Chulio District, on account of grief at the loss of her child, was Mrs. Whitaker. She was a daugterof Mr. S. C. Drum mond, of Bartow county. She cut her throat while sitting in a chair, and then fell over an arm of a loom as if to allow the life blood to flow freer. She was very beloved by all who knew her.— Commercial. Don’t fail to read the advertise ments of Messrs. T. M. Clark A Cos. j wwina /Imwm W# A +tn«-i tat THE RACE FOR ORDINARY IN CHEROKEE COUNTY. We publish this week a communi cation from Rev. C. M. McClure, in reply to am article which Capt. Moss had published in the Marietta Jour nal some time since. We hope our friends in Cherokee will adopt the suggestion made by Mr. McClure, meet at Canton during court week in November and determine who of the numerous candidates for Ordinary shall be selected as the right man to run the race ; and if a selection can not be made from the number who have declared themselves as aspirants for the position, let anew man be nominated who will be acceptable to the people. We think this is the proper course to pursue, and the only one that will be likely to insure suc cess, and give satisfaction. We want justice done, the right vindicated and the interests of the county taken care of, no matter what may become of particular individuals or cliques. Capt. Moss knows that a large num ber of the people of the county com plain of many of his acts since he has been in office, and as a public servant, why should he object to a fair and candid investigation of his official conduct? It is charged, in the first place, that he ran as a Democrat, having received the nomination of that party, and then voted for Bullock. We under stand he does not deny this charge, but privately justifies the act. Now let him inform the people publicly why he voted for the radical candi date and explain upon what hypoth esis he clai med to be a Democrat since men of that creed did not vote that way. We, ourself cordially support ed Capt. Moss, but if we had known that he was a Bullock man, we would have been far from doingsuch a thing. The people don’t like to be deceived in such a way. It is further charged that Capt. Moss gave Bullock “ offi cial information” from time to time, by which extravagant rewards were offered (privately in some cases!) for persons against whom there were no charges with proof sufficient to con vict, and that he realized large sums of money by arresting such parties. It is also charged, that in many in stances he represented to the paupers of the county who applied to him for money, that there was none in the Treasury for them, paid them in goods from his store, and then drew the money himself. Are these charges true? If so did Capt. Moss do right in such matters ? If he did right let him be vindicated—if he did wrong, let him be condemned. He boasts that he found the county in debt when he went into office, and that it is now comparatively free from debt. Now we wish to know if he paid the debts of the county with his own private funds ? Did he not rath er assess a heavy tax upon a war smitten and poverty-stricken people in order to redeem the county bonds held by his personalfriends, w r ho had bought them up at a ruinous discount ? Who could’ent pay debts in that way! We have some recollection of helping Capt. Moss to pay the county out of debt, when we felt very unable to bear our part of the burden, all at once, to put money into the pockets of speculators! Capt. Moss seems to regard us as his enemies, because, we suppose, he thinks he has given us just cause to place ourselves in a hostile attitude. Our experience is, that those who in jure us without a cause, are generally our bitterest enemies. We think Capt. Moss intended to w r rong us when he withdrew the county advertising from our paper, giving it as his only reason for so doing that “ the editor of the Express had dunned him when greenbacks were scarce!” Now the question is, does the Ordinary pay the printer’s fee with his own money, or is he furnished with the amount by the party who has the printing done? If others pay it to him, why should he object to paying it over promptly without any reduction. Will he please answer these questions ? As w T e have before stated we have voted for Capt. Moss, have known him a long time, and our intercourse has often been of the most pleasant character; and now we would gladly throw the mantle of charity over his errors of judgment; but with others we think that some other person, under all the circum stances, would be preferred as Ordi nary for Cherokee county for the next term, and while this is our honest conviction we ar® the champion of no man in particular, but desire that the right man may be put in the right place. B. Since the election last week five buzzards have been observed to perch every morning upon the cupola of the Court House, at Thomasville. CARTERSVILLE. Homeward bound, I stopped at this place. Cartersville is thriving well, and is growing with greater rapidity than any other place I have visited on the State Road. Stores are getting numerous; saw and flour mills are increasing in number.— Among the latter there are the Holly Mills, which compose one of the prin cipal features of the place. It is a very extensive and well-managed institution, and is doing a fine busi ness. In the Standard A Express newspaper, too, the people have one of the best newspapers in Georgia.— It is well and ably conducted, and reflects great credit upon its editors. On Friday night I attended the Pres byterian Church, and listened to a sermon by the Rev. Mr. Burkhead, of Athens. It was one of a series of sermons, and was in all respects very able and instructive. THE BARTOW FAIR. On Tuesday last the Bartow Fair opened. It was a well managed af fair ; was largely attended, and was a success throughout. There was a fine display of stock, and especially by Mr. Roper, of Marietta, who ex hibited a pair of trotting horses which make a team that would at tract attention in any part of the world. They are magnificent ani mals. The Messrs. Stiles also dis played fine stock. Captain Henry Stiles exhibited the finest riding (racker) horse. Hon. Thos. Tumlin, the able member elect from Bartow, and Captain Lyons also displayed some splendid hogs of very superior breed. THE LADIES’ DEPARTMEET Was very complete. Mrs. Peacock, the accomplished wife of Mr. Pea cock, of the Planters’ and Miners’ Bank, displayed more than seventy specimens of fruits, being the finest exhibition of the kind I ever saw.— Other ladies also bad floe exhibitions especially of needle work. In short, this department reflected the highest credit upon the fair sex of Bartow, who are, I need scarcely say, as charming and amiable as the general ity of Georgia women. a patent fence. Among the many other noticeable • things was the patent fence of Mr. J. H. Ruckman. I have seen many things of the kind before, but this is unquestionably the best that has come under my notice. Mr. Ruck man deserves great praise for his in vention. He invites competition, and defies it. The fence will be ex hibited at the State Fair in Atlanta. There was also a splendid display of agricultural implements by Capt. G. S. Ruble, of Chattanooga. In a plowing match, in which several of his plows were engaged, he carried off the prize for the best implement. THE ELECTION—BARTOW REPRE SENTATIVES. The election passed off very quiet ly, Gov. Smith obtaining an enor mous majority. The principal inter est centered in the contest for mem bers of the Assembly. Many of the citizens were dissatisfied with the system of nominations by which small precincts, polling not more than seventy-five votes each, had the right to as much representation as places like Cartersville, polling seve ral hundreds. Asa consequence, in dependent Democrats were run, and one was elected, with Hon. Thomas Tumiin, one of the regular nominees. Captain Tumiin made a splendid race, which speaks highly for his personal popularity. He remained at home attending to his business, and did not electioneer at all, but left It to the voters to decide whether or not he should go to the Legislature. His triumph was, therefore, a high compliment paid him—one fully de served, as he is one of the ablest men in Bartow County, and will do the State good service in the Legislature. THE NEW SENATOR. As you are aware, Hon. J. W. Wofford was elected to the State Sen ate without opposition. I need not speak of his ability, as you are famil iar with that. He is one of the rising men of this part of the State, is very popular, and is destined to still great er distinction in the politioal arena than he has yet attained. Atlanta Herald.] DEATH OF HON.

With feelings of sympathy and sadness we record the death of little Lizzie Tumlin, the only child of our esteemed friend, Col. L. Tumlin, by his present marriage. This sad death occurred on Saturday evening, September 28th, 1872, in the third year of her age. Death never fails to carry sorrow to the hearts of alb Whenever this solemn sound, from any cause, falls upon the ear, it be comes doubly distressing and pecu liarly sad when it lays so low a beau tiful and innocent little girl, just coming into the household, with the freshness of a rose bud covered with the morning dew. To the mother, who always carries photographed in her mind the angelic expression of her child, and who is ever listening for the prattle of the dear one, for the soft tread of the little feet as they were wont to play about the fireside— when these are gone what an unut terablesadness must take up its abode in her heart! And when the shining mark for the shaft of death is her on ly child, how crushing must be the blow! Who but a mother can un derstand anything of the awful still ness and solemn silence of the first night after the burial of her only child ? What an hour, when all the weight of the final good-bye as to this world is still ringing in the ear, connected with the thought that “this is my child’s first day in eternity 1” And yet, but for this thought of the happy and changeless c ondition there, how could this hour be passed, how could its weight ever be borne? Yesterday this little cherub, with a flow of love and conscious innocence, made the household merry and glad —to-day she sleeps in the icy arms of death, no more to prattle a father’s return, no more to kneel at the moth er’s side to invoke the great blessing as the curtain is drawn. But amidsj all this sadness there is a joy that finds no expression in the human tongue, that this day these little ones are all full of glory, floating upon silvery wing in the great ocean of Je hovah’s love, and there amidst the amaranthine bowers of the heavenly Eden, all these shall wait with open arms to chant us home, when the Great Father shall say, even to us, “it is enough !” A FRIEND. “Beautiful Women.— The hair is the crow ning glory of woman. There are few moderate defects which can not be remedied by the proper dispo sition of the tresses. But when the hair begins to fall out, or turn gray, in young people, or with those in the prime of life, there is cause for real regret. When this is the case, Hall's Vegetable Sicilian Hair Ren tuer will be found to be a flrst-classs remedy, far superior, as a sound medical medi um, to anything else before the pub lic. It actually restores gray hair to its original color, and in the great ma jority of cases, causes it to grow again when it is becoming thin. It is not like many popular preparations, a mere wash, but a scientific discovery, indorsed and used by physicians of character. Address R. F. Hall A Cos., Nashua, N. H.
