Blank liens on crops printed at this office.— We have the most approved form. Mrs. E. M.

Her rooms have all been renovated and cleansed, and her beds clean and sweet. Her servants are obedient and bidable, and her por ters and clerks courteous and accommodating. No pains will be spared, by herself au.d all in her employ, to render her guests, in every way, both agreeable and comfortable. All her ener gies will be bent to make the hotel in Uarters ville first-class in all its appointments. Summer visitors will find nmple accommoda tions at this house at reasonable prices. %* Editors who feel so disposed, can copy the above notice oue month, and call and board out their bill. Those availing themselves of this oiler will please send her a copy of the pa per containing notice. Bartow Superior Court is now in session in this city. Judge Harvey, of the Home Circuit, presiding, Judge McCutcheou having presided for him one week Tit Cedartown. This is the regular spriug term. Much business on the dockets to be done. As anxious as many of us are to crowd the B ag»; veteran, Winter, out of his seat so that we may enjoy it, he nevertheless lingers in the lap of spring. There is always something in the wav of one’s enjoyment. . It still continues to rain and kiicw and sleet, notwithstanding nature’s minstrels strive in vain, with their songs and lays, to welcome in the floral year. The Bartow House, in this city, has under gone another change. Mrs. E. M. Stovall, late of Augusta, Ga., has taken charge of it, and from the way her and her accom] 4islied daugh ters are having things turned around and fixed up in capo-pic order, they intend to inaugurate anew era in the hotel business in this city. It is known that our hotel accommodations, for the last several years, have not been adequate to the times nor the demand. Mrs. Stovall being a lady of elegant taste and accomplishments, lias gone to work to make this hotel an attract ive home for the weary traveler and also for the health and pleasure seeker. Instead of the city giving the hotel character, she intends to make the hotel give the city character, by making it an ornament to the city and an honor to the community. Mrs. Annie G. Compton, wife of our esteemed friend and lellow-eitizen, Tlios. M. Compton, and daughter of Rev. A. li. Fears, of Fairburn, Ga., died in Millcdgeville, at 10 o’clock outlie morning of the 20th ultimo. See obituary. Willie Howard and Miller Gilreath, two of Cartersville most promising young man and rising merchants, left this city for New York, on Sunday night last, whither they arc gone to lay in their stocks of spring and summer goods. They represent the excellent houses of Howard & Kamsaur aud N. Gilreath & Son, and intend to buy unusually heavy aud fine stocks for the approaching season. They are both young men of good taste aud judgment, and we may confidently expect, upon their return, ts'see goods, iu abundance, both beautiful, rare aud substantial. We wish them both a pleasant aud successful trip and a safe return to their sunny homes iu Dixie. Our esteemed and enterprising friend, Char lie Shelman, ha3 again brought us under obli gations for favors in the shape of a nice, mellow pear, of the California species, very large aud of delicious flavor, the product of his owu orchard, and, until exposed to the damp air, was in a sta.e of perfect preservation; also a bottle of domestic wine of his own manufacture, from that best of all grapes —the scuppcrnoug, raised on his valuable premises, on the Etowah river near this city. This wine is as line as it is ever made. Mr. Shelman is one amongst the best, if not the very best, fruit raisers iu North Geor gia, as the products of his orchard and vineyard very sattisfactorily prove. Our old friend, Geo. S. Ruble, of Chattanoo ga, Team, is in this city, attending court aud canvassing iu the interest of his splendid agri. cultural implement depot iuthat city, lie is agent for several valuable reapers and mowers, lie lives ou the top of Lookout mountains aud looks as fresh aud lovely as the new blown rose.

AFFLICTION. e W BI state, for the information of onr per sonal friends and relatives, whom it may con cern, that, upon returning from Cherokee Su perior Court, about a week ago, we found Mrs. B. suffering with quite a severe attack of pneu monia; but the disease yielded reauJy to medi oal treatment, and wc are happy to say that she is now recovering as rapidly as could be expected, under the circumstances. CANTON COURT Wc spent a day and night at Canton during court week, but the weather was so unfavora ble that we failed to attend to much business* Wc hope to visit the principal neighborhoods in Cherokee county as soon as the weather and the roads shall have assumed a more settled condition; and we will then be glad to settle up with old subscribers and receive as many new ones as possible. WHAT HE KNEW ABOUT FARMING. Our droll friend, Mr. A., was called before the Cherokee County Agricultural Society, not long since, to “give in his experience about farming,” when a dialogue, somewhat after the following style, occurred between him and the President: P. How do you prepare low bottom laud for com ? A. I bed it up. P. Do you then plant the corn in the water furrow ? A. No. P. Where then do you plant it—on the bed? A. No, I plant it in it. P. Why not plant in the water furrow? A. Because it would lie there and sprout before it would come up. P. llow do you sow oats ? A. Broad-cast, with the little end of the grain up. P. What is your method of ralsiug hay? A, I raise it mostly with a pitch-fork. P. Do you plant cotton ? A. No, I plant the seed. P. Do you use guano ? A. No, but I use tobacco. P. Which is the best way to prepare butter for market ? A. \V ash all the water out, aud pick clean. We congratulate the society ou receiving aj one time so much important information, and hope that it will profit by Mr. A.’s experience Next! Mrs. Annie G. Compton was bom on the 19th of December, 1849, and was, hence, twen. ty-three years of age when, on the 26th day Os February, 1873, in Baldwin county, Ga., she yielded up her spirit to God who gave it. She was the daughter of Rev. A. B. Fears, of Camp, bell county, Ga., who, with his excellent wilfe bestowed on her education, and especially on her religious training, the utmost care. The favorite of a largo family of children, she was doted on and petted, not only by her parents, but by all her relatives; yet was her natural disposition so sweet, so amiable, so unselfish that her most intimate acquaintances never del tected in her demeanor the slightest evidence of self-importance. Indeed, the partiality shown her by all who knew her received no other notice than the most grateful and affec" tionate acknowledgement. Under the religious training of her pious parents, she became im pressed, at an early age, with the necessity of religion; and united herself with the Baptist Church at the age of sixteen. In this com munion she lived a quiet, consistent Christian life until her death. She was married to Mr Thomas M. Compton, of Cartersville, on the 10th of November, 1870, and was brought by him to liis home in this place, a loving, happy bride, her gaze enraptured by as fair a prospect: of long life and happiness as a young wife in the warmth of her affection, and fullness of her confidence, and eagerness of her hope ever looked upon. Alas ! how soon to fade—this happy vision! But why this exclamation of grief? this sorrowful “alas?” when we know that this beautiful vision has only melted away into a more beatiful and happy reality. Those who knew Mrs. Compton well will appreciate the truth wc utter in saying that iu all the relations of life—as daughter—sister— wife—mother—friend—she was a model. Obe dieut where submission was a duty, devoted in all the relations that demand affection—amia- blc, true and trusting, her example was a treas ure, her society a blessing, her death a calami ty. Heaven comfort the husband bereaved of so worthy a wife, and keep the babe so cruelly robbed of a doting mother. Thou art gone faithful wife, sweet sister, fond daughter, kind friend. We mourn as human nature must, yet we submit us to the Father’s will; for “Thy departure was not immature For, ripe in virtue thou wert ’reft away, And pure in spirit as the bless’d are pure; Pure as the dew-drop, freed from earthly lcav m en, That sparkles, is exhaled, and blends with heaven!” A. M. S. rev. j. Dewitt burkhead. Messrs. Editors:—The citizens of Adairs ville and its vicinity have been favored on two occasions recently with the preaching of your eloquent townsman, the Rev. Mr. Burkhead He was here in the prosecution of the work as signed him, as evangelist, by the Cherokee Presbytery. As his duties in this capacity will take him into all the leading communities North-West Georgia to whose highest interest his labors are to be consecrated, and as he is to most of these communities, as he was to ours, personally a stranger, we feel that it is our privilege, having already experienced, wc trust, great good as well as pleasure from his preach ing, to bespeak for him, throughout the church es and throughout all the region he may visit, that cordial and Christian welcome to -which he is entitled alike by the noble object of his mis sion, and the eminent qualifications lie brings to their accomplishment. He appears to be emphatically “the right man in the right place.” With a physical constitution that seems capable of withstanding any amount of exposure, aud shows no weariness under the most protracted and arduous labors; with a zeal that knows no abatement under the most trying discouragements, and that stops not to count the cost to himself of any personal sacri fice or inconvenience; with an enthusiasm in the work before him that excites into life and a'ction the flagging energies of the church, and elicits the interest and sympathy of men of the world ; with an intellect naturally strong and vigorous, independent and original, endowed with the treasures of learning aud skilled in the arts of logic; and withal, armed with au eloquence that well sustains his other high and precious gifts, we cannot wonder that all clas ses, all ages, aud all denominations crowd to hear him, nor can we over-estimate the good he is lively to accomplish by his ministry throughout our section of the State. Let the people then hold up his hands aud cheer his heart, as “he goeth about doing good” among them. Let the Christian community, especial ly, join him heartily in his eflorts to build up and strengthen the broken walls of Zion, and to collect into the fold of the Great Shepherd the scattered flocks of Ilis church.
