THE STANDARD & EXPRESS. S. *l. SMITH & <:< Proprietor* CARTERSVILLE, GA. • " THURSDAY, JUNE 19th, 1873. For many years newspapers have been sent free of postage through the mails to all subscribers living in the county of publication, and have re ceived free all exchanges. Under an act passed by the last congress, these privileges are repealed. This law goes into effect the first day of next month. After that day, the Standard & Ex press will have to pay "postage on all papers and magazines received by it; and subscribers in liartow county re ceiving it through any post oftice will have to pay postage just as if it were published in another county or in a distant State. On that day we shall have to strike from our exchange list many papers which we should like to continue to receive, but on which we cannot af ford to pay postage. The postage on the Standard & Ex press to subscribers in Bartow county will he twenty cents a year, payable annually or quarterly in advance.— Few will care for the amount; but the sum to be paid by each is of less moment than the necessity for giv ing personal attention to a matter so trifling and yet so imperative. We regrot that we cannot take upon our selves all the trouble and annoyance to which our friends at home will bo übjechd. Such of our subscribers as live in the city or vicinity, can get their papers ul tho office ot publica tion, if they prefer to do so and will give us notice. As we have said, the law goes into effect on tin* Ist proximo, and then the duty of postmasters is imperative. Prepayment of postage, either at the office of publication or by the subscri ber, is required in all cases, whether the paper is published at home or abroad, and no postmaster has a right to deliver any paper until the post age is paid for at least one quarter. THE CANTATA. On Friday evening last, our ac complished townswoman, Miss Ver dery and her pupils in music, de lighted the citizens of Cartersville with a musical performance, at the Court House. The services of Mr. Froyer and his violin were also called in requisition, and with Miss Verde ry on the Piano and the well-trained and harmonious voices of a very large number of beautiful girls, the “flow er queen” was admirably rendered to the delight of a large and apprecia tive audience. /The court room and temporary stage were beautifully and appropriately decorated for the occa sion, the large room being crowded to its utmost capacity. Every thing passed off in the most pleasant man ner, reflecting great credit upon the skillfull training of the pupils in mu sic, and upon all the girls taking part in this musical exhibition. Colonel larger than himself, kept time to the music in excellent spirit, and though a lad of only five years, was fully up to tho occasion, mounted in a chair with arms, stick in hand, quite en thused with the duties of his station. Rarely have we witnessed, if ever, so beautiful a scene, or so creditable an exhibition, both to instructress and pupils. The large number of girls, tastefully dressed, and beaming in health and smiles, was indeed charm ing beyond description, presenting an array of beauty among our young people which we have never seen sur passed, if equalled, before. The de lightful music, the beautifully deco rated room, the blending of so many s\v( ot voices of so many lovely little girls, rendered it an occasion of very great pleasure to the large audience, decidedly the most interesting with which we have ever before been fa vored in Cartersville. General Colquitt was also present, by invitation, and delivered a most appropriate, sensible and well consid ered address before the pupils, upon the injurious literature of the day as contained in fashionable novels, and popular magazines. Abounding in sensible suggestions, chaste in its de livery, and replete with a high reli gious morality, it was just such an address as was to be expected from this excellent gentleman, everywhere a favorite in Georgia. We cannot speak too highly of this finished per formance on the part of teacher and U»upils, and in so saying, but express the opinion of the ladies and gentle men assembled. The finished per formances of the girls, evinced great care, patience and good judgment upon the part of Miss Verdery, and entitles her to a high place in public consideration as a most accomplished instructress.

Howard, Deputy for the Seventh, Eighth, and Ninth Congressional Districts of the State of Georgia, will be at this place on Sat urday next for the purpose of organ izing a “Grange.” All those who feel an interest in this enterprise in behalf of the agricultural affairs of the country, are especially invited to attend at the Court House at 11 o’clock on that day, at which time an association will be formed in further ance of the objects of this new insti tution. We suppose that it will hard ly be necessary that one word should be said in order to excite, the favora ble regard of the farming portion of our population in behalf of this growing enterprise, and that a hare statement of the fact that it is solely devoted to the true interests of the farmer and planter is all that is requi site. One of the main purposes, we understand, is to do away with what are called “middle men,” and by an arrangement of their own, save all the charges and profits to the farmer, which are reaped by agents and fac tors in the sale of merchandise. By way of illustration: It is said that sewing machines wfliich find ready sale all over the country at very good prices, cost the manufacturer not more than seven dollars apiece, and bring, on sale in the hands of agents, not less than seventy-five. Now, by the operation of the “Grange,” the statement is, that such an article can be bought at but very little over the manufacturers’ price, thus saving to the purchaser, on this single article, more than one half the price now paid to agents. So of ploughs, reap ers, threshing-machines, mower’s, and whatever else of any kind is bought by the farmer. It is further alleged that by this means, also, the products of the farmer, placed in the hands of the appointees of the Grauges, will be fairly sold, and at the right time, at far less cost than can be done in any other way, and that he is there fore sure of better pay for the pro ducts of his labor. It is also alleged that by operation of these Granges, established all over the South and West, a closer and more intimate community of feeling and interest between these two sec tions will be made apparent, and that this identity of interest will bring about, in the future, a common action on all those political questions which may affect the good being of either section, and will eventuate, by rea son of the preponderating political power which the two sections united will be able to exert, a deliverance from the overshadowing influence which the Yankee States have hith erto exercised over the whole coun try. That this identity of interest and common action between the South and the West, making them one people, will, for all time, keep them one, and in any future great emergency in national affairs, they will be found acting always together. That while the Granges are essential ly and constitutionally designed only --- ur me agiK.ul tural interests of the country, ana ail politics and politicians are rigidly ex cluded from them, yet that in the healthful operations of these bodies, they will so guard the true interests ot the country, as to prove destructive to all whose purpose hitherto lias been to subsidize the great agricultur al interests of the country to sectional and individual aggrandizement, and result in an equal adjustment of the burdens and blessings of government. STONE MOUNTAIN, ITS AREA, HEIGHT, AND WEIGHT!! The Stone Mountain Granite Com pany owns sfi3 acres comprising the Mountain and land adjacent thereto. The Mountain covers about 250 acres. Its height above tho water courses at the foot is stated to be 1350 feet. The United States coast survey party recently estimated it to be about 1200 feet above the bed of the railroad. An industrious Kentuckian lately esti mated its a eight to be 1,207,000,1)00,000 tons!! fractions not counted. Quite enough to occupy the entire commer cial marine of Great Britain and the United States for 150 voyages each vessel. From the top one may look over a radius of 300 or 400 miles ; with your opera glass the mountains may be seen at Chattanooga, Tenn., on a clear day. —Atlanta Herald . The Richest Man in the World.—When newpapersand other folks talk about millionaires they usually mention Rothschild first, but there is a lord in England by the name of Ward, in comparison with whom any Rothschild is a pauper. This Lord Ward inherits a vast pro perty, with accumulated investments and estates, which gives him an enor mous income. He has the most mag nificient house in London, the finest collection of art, and the finest coun try seats in the kingdom. His wife is celebrated for her beauty, and her display of diamonds at the recent festival given by the Emperor of Austria, in Vienna, made all the other ladies, the empresses, queens and princesses, look poor. What the income of this British Croesus is we have never seen any statement of, but a Manchester paper gives an ac count of his annual profits derived lrom his coal mines, which amount to the enormous sum of £4,900,000. So the income from one source alone of this inordinately wealthy person is not much short of twenty.tive mill ions of dollars a year —Telegraph & Messenger BEECHER’S LAST NEW DE PARTURE. Henry W T ard Beecher has added another mountain to his already su perabundant notoriety by a recent sermon in which he preached Uni versalism substantially and took the ground that the scriptures do not af ford support for the belief that alter this life the soul takes an unconscious vacation, awaiting a final ingathering of all the spiritual sphere; and that there was no man who had the slight est particle of good in him but who might find a standing place in Heav en, though by a sort of a specific grav ty the more or less good would find different places in that future world. He said : “I don’t believe a soul is going to be thrust away by that hand that was pierced. I don’t believe that that loye which was shown in Christ Ls going to throw away one soul with a germ of good in it. And so I hope—l hop q.—Savannah News. Gen. John C.

She has brought to pub lic sight a stalk of cotton 30 inches high and bearing 36 forms. Lumkin Independent reports crops in that section as discouraging. Hon. D. A. Vason, of Albany, re ports to the Atlanta Constitution corn crops very promising in his section; grass growing finely; abundance of rain for three weeks; cotton suffering from the rain; oats nearly a complete failure. He reports one field of wheat of one hundred acres yielding between twenty-five and thirty bush els per acre. Showery, and crops in excellent condition in Baldwin county. The crop prospect in Monroe coun ty is very good. Franklin county is happy over the best stand of cotton ever known there. Oats and corn are looking well. Crops in Dodge county, reported by the Eastman Times, as generally good, but grassy. The Columbus Sun in reference to crops says: We learn from Mr. John D. Charlton, one of the oldest and most reliable conductors on the Cen- tral railroad—he having been con nected with it for over twenty years —that the crops on the entire line of the road are in as good condition as he ever saw them at this season of the year. Cotton is backward, it is true, but it is in good condition, while the corn is looking unusually well. The rains have been light and not too frequent on this line. Ex- Gov. H. V.* Johnson corroborates this report in statements made to our traveling correspondent on Sunday. A correspondent of the Macon Tel egraph writes from Mitchell county, under date of 10th inst.: The cotton caterpillar has been reported in dif ferent parts of our county for several days. A few of them have been brought to town, examined carefully pronouuood tho genuine cotton vlv;.ot± Cl . TllotlgK onlj- cv ic-lV caterpillars can be found around here at present, we know they are here, and fear the continuous cloudy cool weather will hasten their multiplica tion until they may sweep the cotton stalks ere the boll is matured. Caterpillars are in Thomas county. Cuthbert Appeal" The Postmaster General decides that an equitable construction of the new postal code will not admit of the free transmission of newspaper ex changes and of newspapers published within the county, and that if any relief is to be afforded in this direc tion, it must come lrom Congress. Hearth and Home.— Messrs. Orange Judd & Cos., publishers of those beautiful illustrated papers, the Hearth and Home and American Agriculturist, send us two pretty chromos, which they are distribut ing to every subscriber to these jour nals for 1873. Both are very neat and tasteful pictures for the parlor or sitting room. The publications of this house are singularly meritorious. We know of none in that field of lit erature to be compared with them, in either beauty or merit. Both are sent to the subscriber for $4.00 a year, with the two chromos we have allud ed to. Address Orange Judd & Cos., 245 Broadway, New York. TIIE THREE .RICHEST MEN IN THE UNITED STATES. They are William B. Astor, Alex ander T. Stewart, and Cornelius—or “Commodore”—Vanderbilt— all re siding in New York. Aster’s wealth is mainly in real estate and its reve nues; Vanderbilt’s mainly in rail road stocks and their dividends; Stewart’s is in goods, houses, stores, factories, lands, and stocks. The ag gregate wealth of each one of them is supposed to be somewhere between seventy-five and a hundred millions, which looks rather heavy. Nobody knows exactly; they couldn’t tell themselves within a million or two. Georgia Iron in Ireland.— The Rome Commercial publishes a letter from a gentleman in Ireland acknowledging the receipt of iron ore from Georgia mines. The writer is engaged in the manufacture of iron and in ship-building, and he finds the Georgia ore well adapted to his business. He wishes to use it, and inquires the price per ton delivered on shipboard in Savanah or Charles ton. Unless high rates of freight shall check the demand, Georgia may soon be largely engaged in the exportation of iron ore to Europe. Cherokee Georgia contains an almost inexhaustible supply of the finest ore in the world, and this fact needs to be only generally known to cause that section of country to be studded with furnaces and manufactories. Mr. Jefferson Davis is said to be writing a history of the war. Such a work from such a man would be valuable. He is reported as saying that he feared the country was" be yond “the redeeming efficacy of mor al worth or elevated intelligence,” and the memories of the Credit Mo bil ier and Viona scandals give a pain ful point to the observation. As this demoralization has been entirely brought about by the party that has controlled the government since the war, it is well that the most capable and cunning hand is to write a histo ry of the pivotal period where the decade of virtue and honesty ended and the decade of corruption and dis honor commenced, if Mr. Davis will prepare his work with skill and judg ment, as well as with the ability which all acknowledge he possesses, he may walk down to posterity with it in his hand.— Courier-Journal.

The following is the telegram’s ac count of Jack’s capture: At half past ten o’clock this morn ing the Warm Spring scouts struck the trail, and after a brief search, the Modocs were discovered. Col. Perry surrounded the Indian’s retreat, and his men were bound to tight. Sud denly the Modocs shot out from the rocks with a white flag: he met the warm Spring Indians and said, “Jack wants to surrender.” Three scouts were sent to meet Jack ; he came out cautiously, glanced about him a mo ment and then, as if giving up ail hopes, came forward and held out his hand to his visitors, then his warri ors, live of his squaws and seven chridren darted forth and joined him in the surrender. Captain Jack is about forty years old, five feet eight inches high, and compactly built. He lias a large and welfformed face, full of individuality, but though dressed in old clothes, he looks every inch of a chief. Ho does not speak to any one. The Modocs are grouped in a field, near the house, and are surrounded by guards. The specta tors peer into Jack’s face with eager interest, but he heeds them not ; he is as still as a statute.
