THE STANDARD AND EXPRESS. PUBLISHED WEEKLY. VOL. 14. THE STANDARD & EXPRESS. CARTERSVILLE, GA,: THURSDAY, MAY 1, 1873. Why are clergymen like brake men ? Because they do a good deal of coupling. A writer asks, in an agricultural paper, if anyone can inform a poor man the best way to start a nursery. Certainly, get married. A young man in Tennessee was presented with a fancy pen-wiper by his sweetheart, and wore it to church, thinking it was a cravat. The Bt. Louis Repuplican recom mends an ambitious debating society in Kansas to take as its next subject “ Which is the butt end of a goat ?” The Saturday Review says: “There is always one side of a man’s charac ter which will bear the light, and on which the funeral sermon can expi ate comfortably.” Thin party (to street urchin):! “Boy, what do you suppose that dog j is following me for?” The youngster j cast a knowing look at him and read- j ily replied: “Guess betakes you for - a bone.” Uh! said a poor sufferer to a den- j tist, that is the second time you’ve pulled out the wrong tooth ! ‘ Very sorry, sir, said the dentist, but as there was only three when 1 began, I’m sure to be right next time. A Stomngton, Conn., man stopped his paper, and took out his “ono square ad,” because the little black and-tan dog of the editor nipped a pet cat in the bud by chewing her tail off. Let Congress step in now and decide whether a newspaper man has any rights. A bill is before the Illinois Legis lature to prevent men from whipping their wives, and it will no doubt pass. Thus one by one the Christian be holds his inestimable rights and priv ileges torn from his grasp by the mur derous hand of a tyrannous Legisla ture.—Courier Journal. AN HONEST MAN. “Mr, Brown, you said the defend ant was honest and intelligent.— What makes you think so? Are you acquainted with him ?” “No sir, I have never seen him.” “Why, then, do you come to such a couclusion ?” “Because he takes ten newspapers and pays for them in advance.” Verdict, for tigfqptpnt A man whom Dr. Chalmers en gaged to manage a disorderly Sun day- school, kept his eyes wide open during praying, and when one' boy thrust a pin into another he marched up the aisle still cuffed that boy’s ears, and wentjback again praying all the way. After that he was master of the situation, for the boys thought that a man who could watch and pray like that could not be put down. “Father, you whipped me the oth er day for biting Tommy.” “Yes my son, you hurt him, and I shall always whip you for biting.” “Well, then, father, I wish you would whip sister’s music teacher, for he bit her on the mouth this moruing, and 1 know lie hurt her a good deal, for she put her arms around his neck and tried to choke him.” A good story is told of an Irish hostler who was sent to the stable to bring forth a traveller’s horse. Not knowing which of the two strange horses in the stalls belonged to the traveller, and wishing to avoid the appearance of ignorance in his busi ness, ho saddled both animals and brought them to the door. The trav eller pointed out his own horse say ing: “That’s my nag.” “Certainly, yer honor, I knew that but I didn’t know which one o’ them was the other gintleman’s.” “I rise for information,” said one of the dullest of the members of an American legislature. “I am very glad to hear it,” said one who was leaning over the bar, “for no one wants it more than yourself.” An other member rose to speak on the bill to abolish capital punishment, and commenced by saying:—Mr. Speaker, the generality of mankind in general are disposed to exercise oppression on the generality of man kind in general.” “You had better stop,” said one who was sitting near enough to pull him by the coat tail; “you had better stop you are coming out of the same hole you went in at.” A young mother was in the habit of airing the baby’s clothes at the window ; her husband didn’t like it and believing that if she saw her practice as others saw it she would desist, he so directed their afternoon walk as to bring the nursery window in full view from the central part of the town. Stopping abruptly, he pointed to the offending linen flap ping unconsciously in the breeze, and asked sarcastically: “My dear what is that displayed in our window ?” “Why,” she replied, “that is the flag of our union.” Conquered by this pungent retort, he saluted the flag by a swing of his hat, and pressing his wife’s arm clo ser within his own, said, as they walked homeward: “And long may it wave.” Without ax Enemy'. —No man can dodge enemies by trying to please everybody. If such an individual ever succeeded, we should be glad of it—not that one should be going through the world trying to find the beams to knock and thump against disputing every man’s opinion, fight ing and elbowing, crowding all who differ from him. That, again, is an other extreme. Other people have their opinion, so have you ; don’t fall into the error of supposing that they will respect you more for turning your coat every day to match theirs. Wear your own colors in spite of wind or weather, storm cr sunshine. It costs the irresolute and vacilla ting ten times the trouble to wind and twist and shuffle than honest, manly independence to stand its ground. “DIED POOR.” “It was a sad funeral to me,” said the speaker, “the saddest I have at tended in many years.” “That of Edmonson ?” “Yes.” “How did he die?” “Poor—poor as poverty. His life was one long struggle with the world, and at every disadvantage, fortune mocked him all the while with golden promises, that were des ; lined never to know fulfillment.” “Yet he was patient and enduring,” remarked ono of the company. “Patient as a Christian—enduring as a martyr,” was answered. “Poor man! He was worthy of a better fate. He ought to have succeeded, for he deserved success.” “Did he not succeed?” questioned i the one who had spoken of his pa j tienee and endurance. “No, sir. He died poor, just as I have stated. Nothing that he put his hand to succeeded. A strange fa tality seemed to attend every enter prise.” “I was with him in his last mo-: meats,” said the other, “and thought he died rich.” “No he left nothing behind,” was replied. “The heirs will have no concern as to the administration of . his estate.” “He left a good name.” said one, j “and that is something.” ; “And a legacy of noble deeds that j were done in the name of liuman i ity,” remarked another. ! “And precious examples,” said a I third. “Lessons of patience in suffering, of hope in adversity, of heavenly confidence when no sunbeams fell upon his bewildered path,” was the testimony of another. “And high truth, manly courage, heroic fortitude.” “Then he died rich,” was the em phatie declaration. “Richer than the millionaire who went to his long j home on the same day, miserable in all hut gold. A sad funeral, did you , say ? No, my friend, it was atrium- i phal procession ! Not a burial of a human clod, but the ceremonies up on the translations of the angel. Did not succeed ? Why his whole life was a series of successes. In every conflict he became the victor, and now the victor’s crown is on his brow. Any gasping, soulless, sel fish man, with a moderate share of brain, may gather money, and learn the art of keeping it; but not one in a hundred can conquer bravely, in the battle of life, as Edmonson has conquered, and step forth front the ranks of men a Christian hero rich in neighborly love and rich in celes tial affections. And his heirs have an interest in the administration of his affairs. A large properly has been left, and let through false estimates and ignorant deprecations. There are higher things to gain in this world than wealth that perishes. He dies rich who can take his treasures with him to the new land where he is to abide for ever; and he who has to leave all behind on which he places his affec tions, dies poor indeed.” HOW TO CONSTRUCT A FASH IONABLE LADY. The Richmond Enquirer publishes the following recipt to make a wo man of the period: Take ninety 'pounds of flesh and bones—but chiefly bones—wash clean, bore holes in the ears and cutjoff the small toes; bend the back to couform to the Grecian bend, the Boston dip, the kangaroo droop, the Saratoga slope, or bullfrog break, as the taste inclines; then add three yards of lin en, one hundred yards of ruffles, and seventy-five yards of edging, eighteen yards of dimity, one pair of silk cot ton hose with patent hip attachments, one pair of false calves, six yards flannel, embroidered, one pair balino ral boots with heels three inches high, four pounds whalebone in strips, seventeen hundred and sixty yards of steel wire, three quarters of a mile of tape, ten pounds of raw cot ton or two wire hemispheres, one wire basket to hold a bushel, four copies of a New York paper (triple sheet) one hundred and fifty yards of silk or other dress goods, five hun dred yards of point lace, fourteen hundred yards fringe and other trim ings, twelve gross of buttons, one box pearl powder, one saucer of carmine and an old hare’s foot, one bushels of false hair, frizzled and fretted ala maniaque , one bundle Japanese switches, with rats, mice and other varmints; one peck of hairpins, one lace handkerchief, nine inches square, with patent holder. Perfume with “Atter of Roses,” or sprinkled with nine drops of the “Blessed Baby,” or “West End.” Stuff the head with fashionable novels, ball tickets, play bills and wedding cards, some scan dal, a great deal of lost time and a very little sage, add a half grain of common sense, three scruples of re ligion, and a modicum of modesty. Season with vanity and affectation and folly. Garnish with ear-rings, finger-rings, breast-pins, chains, bracelets, feathers, and flowers to suit the taste. Pearls and diamonds may be thrown in if you have them; if not, paste and pinchbeck from the dollar-store will do. Whirle all aronnd in a fashionable circle, and stew by gaslight for six hours. Great care should be taken that the thing is not overdone. If it does not rise sufficiently add more copies of a New York paper. This dish is highly ornamental, and will do to put at the head of your table on grand occasions, but is not suitable for every-day use at home, being very expensive and indigesti ble. It sometimes gives men the heartburn, and causes them to break, and is certain death to children. If you have uot the ingredients at hand, you can buy the article ready made in any of our large cities —if you have money enough. Tiiequestion- 44 wil 1 wasps freeze?” has been decided by a Peoria man who found one in a frozen nest one day last week, and took the insect in the house, and held it by the tail while he warmed his ears over a gas jet. You wouldn’t believe it, but the Peoria naturalist says its tail thawed out first, and while its head was so stiff and icy it couldn’t wink, its “probe” worked with inconceivable rapidity, io the great distress of the minister who was present, and was dreadfnlly distressed by the hideous profanity consequent on each and i every movment of the probe afore- I said. SAMUEL H. SMITH & COMPANY, EDITORS AND PROPRIETORS. CARTERSVILLE, GEORGIA, THURSDAY MORNING, MAY 1, 1873. I TO THE CITIZENS OF CHERO KEE GEORGIA AND ALA j * BAMA. Rome, Ga., April 14, 1873. The Board of Directors has estab lished a central and working office in this city, and in connection with it an Exhibition Room at No. 77 Broad street, for the pnrpose of collecting and exhibiting, at all speci men- of farm, garden and orchard products in their seasons, inanufac tured articles, wood for building and manufacturing purposes, minerals, fossils, etc., raised, produced and manufactured within your limits. They do most respectfully and earn estly request each and every one of you to aid and sustain them in this | important enterprise, which you all must admit is well calculated to be productive of great good to you in-! uividually and collectively. You can ! do this by bringing or sending ro the ! Exhibition Room such specimens as you may have or can procure. Those complying with this request will please attach labels to their speci mens so as to enable strangers to locate the place from whence they came or find the party bringing or sending them; manufacturers will please attach cards to their samples of goods, wares, etc. The object of the Board is to demonstrate the fact that Cherokee Georgia and Alabama can produce a much greater variety of cereals, grasses, timber for build ing and manufacturing purposes, more and superior water powers, more elements of wealth, health and prosperity than any other section of the- United States, und we’ll do this if you will but co-operate with us in this good work. The rooms will be open at all times for your reception and for inspection, but more espe cially for the stranger. Your obedient serv’t, Thus. J. Perry, Sec’y. | ‘ENFORCEMENT” IN MISSIS SIPPI. Under “de civil rights enfostment” of Mississippi, the negro barbers of of that State are in much tribulation. If they shave the blacks they lose the patronage of the whites, and if they don't shave the blacks they are hauled up at once before some negro “trial jestice" who gives them Jesse. In consequence, Mississippi is full of tonsorial martyrs. Sometimes they get desperate, and old parson Adams used to say—they “o’releap the limits of control,” and in a sudden thirst for vengance sacrifice their individu al safety to a popular outbreak of Ethiopian indignation. Thus at “Chrystal Springs” (charm a uio ct/ttuu patch, entered the “Hair Dressing Saloon” of the Hon. George Wash ington Gingerbread, throwing him self into one of the scarlet plush easy chairs, demanded to be“shampooded, and his hair dressed in the mos scrumptious style.” George Washington eyed this cus tomer with face-blazing indignation, and then, of a sudden, his temper outrunning his judgment, he pulled down a bottle of carbolic aciu and gave kink-head a libation which made him howl like a first-class Mis sissippi steamboat whistle. Kink-head put out the front door, yelling murder and vengeance, and the Hon. George Washington sloped out of the back door in the other di rection, leaving his shop, wigs, wax dummies and general stock in trade a peace offering to indignant Ethio pia, and all were sacrificed on the spot in the course of the next forty minutes. This moving tale illustrates the ag onies of the tonsorial crisis in Missis sippi. The great question, “choose ye this day whom ye will shave,” has taken an appalling form, and there is at least one class of negroes in Mississippi who deplore “de en fostment” as a device of Satan. A Billy Goat’s Raid on a Pan ier. —An amusing case of assault and battery took place yesterday on the corner of Sixth street and Virginia avenue. Three respectable ladies were taking a quiet walk, dressed in gay colors, and while in the locality named were astonished by the head and horns of a billy goat coming in contact with the prominent portion— as fashions go—of the outlines of one of the promeuaders, making sad hav oc of the fixings. The ladies scream ed at the top of their voices as the irate quadruped persisted in chasing and butting them right and left. A crowd soon assembled and among them Officer John N. Berry, who, without the authority of a warrant took the dilemma by both horns, and thus relieved the frightened ladies, who scampered off some to repair damages. The assailant was persuad ed to the first precinct station house, where he butted the boards off his stall before his wrath subsided. This morning, after hearing before Lieut. Gessford, he was turned over to the tender mercies of the pound men without security.— Washington Star. AN IRON ROAD IN THE AIR. We are indebted to the New York Tribune for the following facts, which we condense to accommodate our lim ited space: A double track is to be laid from Chamber street, New York, to Forty-second street, a distants of over three miles, by the middle of October next. How high in the air this iron way is to be is not stated; but the object is to have it out of the way of travel and business under it. The contract for supplying the iron needed is the largest ever made in America, and is given to the New England Company at Boston. Five? million dollars are placed in the hands of trustees to be paid out monthly as the iron is supplied, not to exceed 95 per cent, of the amount furnished. Building iron roads in the air, and for miles under cities in terra finna, is anew feature of civili zed life, in this iron age. “Walter, where does this hotel buy its beef?” inquired a railway passenger, the other day, as he quit sawing on a piece of sole-leather steak. “Os Mr. Jones, sir,” respond ed the waiter. “Jones! ah! I knew him in Troy, years ago, very eccen tric man, that Jones. He always made it his leading object in life to kill nothing in the shape of a beef that wasn’t five hundred years old.” The waiter reflected a moment, and then went after a piece nearer the riba. Fan, Homelelfl M Garden. STRAWBERRIES. Strawberry beds must be kept free from runners, if you desire fruit rather than an increase ot plants. It is better to cut than to pull them off. Mulch and water the plants, if a long bearing season be desired. j To Wash Calico. —To prevent calico from fading while washing, infuse three gills of salt in four quarts lof water; put the calico in while hot, and leave it till cold. In this way | the colors are rendered permanent, and will not fade by subsequent i washings. GRAPE VINES** AND FRUIT TREES. | Grapes vines will throw out extra ! shoots and suckers, which should Ik* rubbed off at once. Young peach trees should be looked after for the; same purpose. Mulch newly-planted i trees and vines to keep the ground moist about the roots. This is bet ter than watering. Frozen Custards. —This is a nice ■ disli for dessert, and verv easily pre pared. Boil two quarts ofrich milk: beat eight eggs and a teacupful of su- j gar, together, and after the milk is boiled, pour it over the eggs and su gar, stirring all the while. Pour the | whole mixture into your kettle and let it conic to a boil, stirring it con stantly, then take it off the fire and let it become cold. Flavor with whatever essence you prefer, then freeze it. FARMERS O RGANIZING. Col. Col man, editor and proprietor of the Rural World, of St. Louis, has this paragraph in his paper of April 19: “Since closing the last issue of our paper, we have addressed a Large convention of farmers at Chillicothe, Mo.; Brunswick, Mo ; and at Mt. Yer non, 111. The farmers turn out in large numbers, whether the weather is good or bad. They feel that relief is needed and that it must be had and like drowning men, they r • reaching forth for anything that promises assistance. At all the points we have spoken, the work of thought organization has begun.” INDIGNANT TO FARMERS. The following is one of a series of resolutions passed by a farmers’ club in Illinois: “That, in view of the fact that the cost of sewing machines is from five to seven dollars, or with tabj# wnirty complete from ten at from doi tos, we are often reSiffiS'thS fact that we pay manufacturers and miudie-nren. — Now, therefore, resolved, ‘That we will use old mowers, reapers and plows, wear our old hats, coats, pants and bonnets and paddle our own ca noe generally, until we can purchase at prices somewhat corresponding to* the prices we get for our products and labor.’ ” KEFP THE SOIL MELLOW. A mellow soil is capable of absorb ing in twelve hours, when exposed to a dry atmosphere, an amount of wa ter equal to two per cent, of its weight. If any argument was need ed to keep the soil mellow, here is a most powerful one to convince us. For this property possessed by a mel low soil is one that, in a dry season, is able to give it the power of matur ing a a hardened suaface would be unable to do so. A surface that is impenetrable to the atmos phere could not of course absorb any of the moisture with which the at mosphere is charged. But when ren dered free from lumps by repeated plowing and harrowing, each change of temperature causes a circulation of air throughout the mass of soil, which is free to them to absorb all the moisture coming in contact with it, unless it is saturated. A HORRIBLE OUTRAGE AND EQUALLY HORRIBLE RET RIBUTION. Memphis, April 16. —The Augusta (Arkansas) Bulletin publishes a let ter from Thomas Warren, of Union county, Ark., giving an account of a horrable outrage upon and murder of a white woman by a negro in that county. A few weeks ago a marri ed woman went to a neighbor’s house to remain several days, but found no one at home and start ed to return, when a negro stopped her horse, took her off and drove, pushed and pulled her eight miles In to the bottom-lands, where he tied her to a tree and ravished her, keep ing her there for three days. On the second day, while still tied to the tree, she gave birth to a child. On the third day the husband of the un fortunate woman not finding her at the neighbor’s, but discovering her horse where the negro had left it tied, collected some of his friends and be gun a search, which resulted in find ing her dead body tied to the tree, the negro having murdered her by blows upon the head, inflicted with a club. The murderer was soon afterward captured by a party of negroes, who were assisting in the search. At the husband’s request the negroes built two log heaps, and setting them on fire placed him between them. They were twenty-four hours burning him, and, at intervals, subjecting him to horrible torture, such as cutting off his toes and strips from his body. There were three other negroes con cerned in ravishing the woman. They were subsequently caught and shot. The Atlanta Sun says: Yesterday two collisions occured on the Western and Atlantic railroad between freight trains. One was near the Chattahoo chee river, the other above Rockmart. The extent of damage was the des truction of the several engines and some freight cars. The debris on the road prevented the arrival of the pas senger train at the proper hour.—Sa vannah Neics. A single paragraph in a Richmond paper foreshadows the speedy com pletion of a line of railroad from Gainesville, Georgia, to Decatur, Alabama. Mr. B. Y. Sage the suc cessful projector of the Richmond and Atlanta Air-Line, has just been elected Chief Engineer and Superin tendent of the Gainesville and Deca tur branch. i POETRY. THE OLD COAT OF GRAY. BY BLOXDIXK. It lies there alone; it is rusty and faded, H ilh a patch on the elbow, a hole in the side; Bat we think of the brave boy who wore it, and ever Look on it with pleasure and touch it with pride. A history clings to it; over and over, F e s . et ‘ a proud youth harried off to the fray, >V ith his form like the oak, and his eye like the eagele’s. How gallant he rode in the ranks of “the Gray!” It is rough, it is worn, it is tattered in places. But I love it the more for the story it bears; ! A story ot courage iu struggle with sorrows, And a heart that bore bravely its burdeus of cares. It is ragged and rusty, but ah ! it was shining lu the silkiest sheen when he wore it a wav, And his smile was as bright as the glad sum mer morning, When he sprung to his place in the rauks of I “the Gray.” r upre’s a rip iu the sleeve, and the collar is tarnished, The buttons all gone with their glitter and gold, Tis a thing of the past, and we reverently lay it Away with the treasures and relies of old. As the gifts of a love, solemn, sweet and un-! spoken, Arc cherished as leaves from a long vanished i day, We will keep the old jacket for the sake of the i loved one Who rode in the van in the ranks of “the Gray.” Shot through with a bullet—right here in the shoulder, And down there the pocket is splintered and soiled, Ah ! more—see, the lining is stained and dis colored ! Yes, blood-drops the texture have stiffened and spoiled. It came when he rode at the head of the col umn, Charging down the battle one deadliest day \S hen squadrons of foemen were broken asun der, And Victory rode with the ranks of “the Gray.” Its mem’ry is sweetness and sorrow commin gled, To me it is precious—more precious than gold, In the rent and the shot-holes a volume is writ ten, Iu the -tains on the lining k agon-, told. That was ten y ars ago, when, life's suuuv morning, Tie rode with his comrade? down into the fray, And the old coat he wore, and the good sword he wielded, , Werc all that came back from the ranks of “the Gray.” And it lies there alone, I will reverence it ever, The patch in the elbow, the hole in the side’ For a gallanter heart never breathed tliav the loved one Who wore it. in honor and soldierly pride, tarnish, ATI La Let me fold it up closely and lay it away— ** W one thnt 18 of the lo ved and the lost Who tought for the Right In the ranks of “THE SAL All i The Now York Evening Post reproduces from its columns the following poetical effu sion published in 1816, when former Congress men raised their own salaries: Oh! won’t you hear What roaring cheer Was spent by Johnny Congress, 0! And when so gay They doubled their pay, And doubled the people’s taxes, 0! There was Clay the scold And Johnson the bold, Who did not shoot Tecumseh, O!

Arrali! by my shoul, it would make your heart leap for grief to hear the poor soldiers beg ging for their pay, the widows for the pen sions, and the oliicers for new loaus, while all the members arc drinking and singing merrily. Twelve dollars a day, Twelve dollars a day, Twelve dollars *i day’s the dandy, O! There was Clay in the chair, ■With his flax-colored hair, And signing the tax bills cheerily, 0!

We have pat on their backs, A mountain of tax, An army, a bank, et cetera , O ! Which so tamely they bore, That we all could have swore They were perfectly broke to the halter, O! How shall we creep out of this scrape ? says one. Says Clay, I will persuade the people that twelve dollars a day is too little to support myself and wife. Says Hardin, I’ll turn the thing off in a joke. Says Onnsbey, I’ll beg pardon of my constituents, and promise never to do the like again. “Well done, my lads !” says Johnson, and so they all begin to sing again, Twelve dollars a day, Twelve dollars a day, Twelve dollars a day’s the dandy; O!

The paper that most resembles the reader—’tis you (tissue) paper. A Talbotton negro attempted to break anew mule by holding on to his tail. It is useless to specify what was broken. “Printer’s ink is one of the stickiest of coloring materials.” Yes; a great many country newspaper men have been stuck by it.
