The l.uts offered for sale by Mr. Chamberlain, arc well situated, near the business part of the city, and arc well adapted for residences, and other purposes LARCENY FROM TIIE HOUSE. Some colored thieves stole dry goods to the amount of fifteen or twenty dollars, from the store of T. B. Shockley, on last Friday night, while Mr. Shockley and his clerk were busy in another part of the house. CARTERSVILLE, Aug. 12, 1873. Messrs. Editors .’—Please allow us space in your paper to return our thanks to the peo ple of Kingston, and especially to the “lteb” B. B. Club, for the kindness extended toward us, while in Kington, last Friday. Respectfully, “EMPIRE” B. B. CLUB. <). M. Peacock, Secretary. ACCIDENT TO Mu. EAVES. Wc regret to learn that oiu friend and fel low citizen Mr. N. S. Eaves met with quite a rious accident on last Sabbath, by which one of his arms was broken near the wrist. He w.ia ihiviiig a horse to a buggy ou the Tennes see road, a few miles above here, wlicu the animal, becoming suddenly frightened, ab ruptly wheeled, and Mr. Eaves was thrown from the buggy, with the above result. ANOTHER FELLOW-MORTAL GONE FROM OUR MIDST. Mr. Aaron Martin, and honest man, and ood citizen, who lived ou Douglas street, died on last Sabbath evening. He had been suffering with hernia for many years, and it is thought, hastened his death by over-exertion in the hot weather, lie was a good man, and died in peace. May God bless his bereaved family. FINE GRAPES. We hereby teuder our warmest thanks to our friend, Jesse R. Wikle Esqr. our accomo dating and popular Post master, for a g ood sized sample of Concord grapes, which were raised in his young and promising vine-yard near the city. They are beautiful to behold, and exactly suited to our taste. Wc have been better satisfied with our lot on earth ever ineo we ate them. May friend Wikle’s “corn and wine increase,” and may he live long ou the earth to enjoy the fruits of his labors. T. W. BAXTER. We call attention to the advertisement of our clever young friend T. W. Baxter, which may lie seen in another column. He keeps ou hand a splendid variety of hard-ware and agri cultural implements, and as lieis just starting in business, is determined to give satisfaction, and in this way build up a large and perma nent establishment in his department. Tbose who need such articles as he deals in, would do well to examine his splendid assortment. He is one of the few who believe in the “om nipotence oi honesty” and lair dealing. Give him a trial. We have just examined the Emory cotton Gin, which may be seen at the Hardware store of Mr. T. W. Baxter, who is agent for the company. It is said to be the best gin in the world, and with many other excellencies, it is so arranged that it can be used without a lint-room , which is certainly a great conven ience. The specimen we examined has been purchased by our enterprising friend Capt. C B. Wallace, President of the Car Factory, and will be run at his works during the ensu ing season. Sec advertisement in another column. Wc accompanied our friend, the Rev. Dr. Scale to his appoiutmodt at Brandon’s Chapel, in the neighborhood of Euharlee on last Sab bath. We had quite a pleasant time. We passed through on our way a portion of as fine a country as North Georgia affords. We possed through and in sight of the magnificent estates of the Rowlands, the Stiles, the Milams, Shellmans, and others, and were delighted with the splendid crops of corn and cotton growing upon them. A w ant of rain however was manifest in some places, and a want of work in others. We noticed some signs of rust ou some of the cotton. At the Chapel we met a repectable congre gation of intelligent people, and endeavored to dispense to them the word of Life. We din ed with our esteemed old friend, Capt. Hoyle and his excellent lady ; and as we returned in the evening called to see the venerable Thom a- Brandon, who for some time has been con fined to his room on account of sickness. For many years Mr. Brandon has been a faith ul class-leader, a strong pillar iu his church ; and it may be truthfully’ said of him ; “Behold au Israelite iudeed iu whom there is no guile.” We also called for a few momenta at the “palatial residence,” of our clever old friend Mr. Madisou Milam,' and feasted our eyes ou the wide-extended fields and grand old mountains which surround his beautiful home, which is situated on a commanding eminence, in a graceful bend of the beautiful Etowah. The place and its surroundings, re mind us forcibly of Mount Vernon, the form er home of the immortal Washington. Late in the evening we returned to our sub-urban home, and felt that we had been well repaid 4 or the labors of the day, PROTRACTED MEETING AT THE METH ODIST CHURCH. A mteting has been carried on, at the meth odist Church at this place, for ten or twelve days past, and still continues, but with no particular manifestations of revival influence. RAIN! We were visited by a glorious tain on Wednes day, morning. It was greatly needed, and will have good effect on turnip seed, and other veg -eatables. It was what Ad Watson, oi Greasy Cove, calls & “regular taler rain.” REVIVAL AT STEGALL’S. Avery interesting meeting has been going on at the Methodist Church at Stegall’s, for several days past; and, at the time of tliis writing continues with increasing interest. The Rev. li. 11. Jones, preacher In charge, has been conducting the meeting, with occasional assistance from the local brethren. We were present ou Tnesnay night, and felt that it was good to be there. THE PEOPLE’S TICKET. For Mayor: Col. J. G. M. MONTGOMERY For Aldermen: First Ward, F. M. Johnson, P. L. Moon, Second Ward, Alfred Williams, W. A. Williams. Third Ward, M. B. MoGixtt, W. C Edwards. Fourth Ward, E. N. Gower, Henry Pattili.o. LOCAL TRIFLES. We hope we hazard nothing when we mod estly and respectfully suggest, that this weath er iu our humble opinion is too hot to fight. Wanted ! Someone to look over and read our local items before they are printed ! Our street hogs are happy, as water-melon rinds are plentiful. One of the late amendments to the constitu tion in a race after another of the “same faith and order” fell spraw ling on the side-walk in front of the store of Stockcley Williams & Cos., on last Saturday evening. The damage done to the pavement can be repaired at a trifling cost. Our streets were full of colored people aud others-on last Saturday evening, traffleing and tradeing for dry-goods and groceries. The weather is too hot to drink anything but water. “THE PATH OF TIIE JUST.” llow beautiful is that expression, found in the Bible, which declares that, “The jftitli of the just is as the Shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day.” Truly Light is sown for the righteous, and gladuess for the upright iu heart!” There is light and gladness in the way wherein shines the glori ous sun of righteousness, with healing iu his wings; aud the pilgrim who walks in tliis way finds it a “way of pleaseantness” that grows brighter fairer as he advances towards its terminus, which is “quite ou the verge of heaven!” Oye weary ones of earth, do ye long for rest and peace aud quietness, assur ance and hope ? These blessings are found alone in “The way the holy Prophets went, The road that leads from banishment; The Kings high-way of holiness,” Whose flowery paths are full of peace! “Let the wicked man forsake his ways” which are “dark and lead to hell and as he values his happiness here aud hereafter, let him seek “a more excellent way,” “the path of the just that sliiuetli more aud more uuto the perfect day.” A GLANCE AT OUR EXCHANGES. The Marietta Journal publishes as a fact, the existence of a “tomato vine with four thous and tomatoes thareou.” Willie Moors’s “occu pation’s gone.” The local editor of the Standatd & Express knows how to make apologies to offended la dies. We will wager a “tomato vine with four thousand tomatoes thereon,” that he is not “henpecked.” —Monroe Aavertiser. Korrect. • The Albany News says: The few lives, energetic, enterprising men who have resorted to the caterpillar “destroyer,” report that it is no longer au experiment but a complete suc cess. The caterpillar has appeared iu almost ev ery farm iu Thomas county. Harris of the Savannah News has discover ed that the city Council of Cartersville has erected a large gallows as a warning to evi! doers. We are glad that our friend of the News has taken the hiut so readily. The Acworth Monitor says: The agricul tural editor of the Cartersville Express re minds its readers that it is a good time to sow turnips. It seems to us that is quite a fast plau, even for the fast town of Cartersville. Our people still adhere to the “good old way” of so wing the seed. Yes, and your people adhere to a good ma ny “old ways” which should be abandoned. We suppose they sow wheat seed, aud plant potatoe seed, too, do they ? What do you “country editors” know about fanning ? There will be a Fair at Acworth ou the 20th of this month. The Marietta Journal man says he has his table loaded with flue irish potatoes, which his friends have brought in as specimen’s. If he eats them all they will “lie heavy on his stomach.” The Griffin Star announces the fact that Paul Johnson is at home on a visit! We thought people left home when they visit ed. We hope Paul will stud his “visit” to be a pleasant one, and that lie may return in safety. The Telegraph & Messenger says “sow turn ips," and has a good article on the subject. Sow it is ! E. li. Taylor, of Monroe county, says lie takes the Macon aud Atlanta papers and the Forsyth Advestiscr for the purpose of making liis grammer class correct the editorials. He says that when his scholars get through the correcting process, tt wouldn’t be suspected by the casual observer that the articles treated of the same topic. It would be well uow to have someone ap pointed to correct the corrections of that won derful class. The Grifiiu Star editor says he is often ta ken for Mister Dismuke the Ordinary. W e are sometimes afraid of beiug taken bg Major Linn our Sheriff! The Utica Herald says that men will never know what effect it would have had on Job if eleven little girls had called on him, one after another, and tried to sell him Sunday school picnic tickets. We think that is capital puuishment when compared to the attacks of life insurance agents aud lighting lod men. The immediate predecessor of the reigning Shah of Persia is charged with the paternity of three hundred aud sixty children.— Ex. Shah! we dont believe it! An exchange says: There is to be a “fat men’s convention” at Put-in-Bay, Ohio, on Sept., 10th. It will certainly be a Strange gathering ; and they will doubtless have a Jolly time. It is said that Prof. Wise, will undertake a trans-atlautic voyage soon iu a balloon. Sev eral reporters will accompany him in bis per ilous trip; aud we predict that their last re port will be the one made when they strike the water. An exchange says: Judge D. 11. Pope has come back to Georgia disgusted with Texas. Wonder what are the feelings of Texas upon the subiect ? Arc they mutual and recipro cal? Col. Styles, oftlie Albany News, is keen to know the creature who is mean enough to steal from a newspaper man. We hope the Col. will have the pleasure of an introduction at an early day. We dont wish to know any sich ourselves. A Fulton county man was advised by a neighbor to put tar on a fine sow aud set it ou tire in order to rid the animal of vermin. He tried the experiment, but when be called at a neighbor's bouse with a hoe-helve under his arm, he learned with regret that the man had moved west. —Little Harris. Oh that he would come to Cartersville and use his remedy on our streets awhile! THE PEOPLE'S TICKET FOR MAYOR AND ALDERMEN. We publish in this issue, a ticket to be run for Mayor and Alderman for our ci,y. We heartily endorse every one of the gentlemen whose names are proposed. They are all good citizens, who have the welfare of the city at heart, and we hope that every one of them will be elected. Col. Montgomery, the candidate for Mayor, would be “the right man in the right place,” and a very proper succes sor to Col. Johnson, the very efficient and de servedly popular encumbent, who postively declines to accept a nomination for re-election. And Mr. Wm. A. Williams, who is a business man and a good scribe, would if elected, fill to the satisfaction of all, the office of clerk of the council, which position has been so long and ably filled by Capt. J. C. Madox who, we learn, also refuses to be a candidate. Suc cess to “the people’s ticket.” DIED At Pleasant Gap, Alabama, on the 28th of July, James Franklin Stocks, sou of Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Stocks, aged 17 months. Laurence Herald please copy. MARRIED, Iu the Methodist Church in Cartersville, Ga., ou the 10th iust., by Rev. L. J. Davies, Mil Julian M. Stoy to Miss Ida E., daughter of Mr. Walter Cameron, all of Augusta, Ga. Augusta papers please copy. On the 22nd of June, Charles W. Thomp son, of Cartersville, Ga., to Miss Laura J. Hendry, ol Fort Myers, Florida. Du. W. J. Land, Analytical Chemist.— Atlanta can boast of having one of the most eminent analytical chemists in the South. Dr. Land is regarded as high authority ou all mat ters connected with his profession and his in tegrity is unquestioned. The writer of this article was at one time solicited to take an in terest in a lead andsilver mine. Specimens of the ore were sent §1 him with what purport ed to be the analysis of a distinguished chem ist, showing a heavy percentage of silver. He was about to purchase ou this certificate when it was suggested to him to call ou Dr.'Laud and get him to verify the aforesaid certificate. He did so and Dr. Land in a few days furnish ed him with his analysis showing that there was no trace of silver in the specimens. This analysis has proved to be the correct one, and thus for $5 00 he was saved an investment that might otherwise have turned out disastrously. Atlanta Herald. SPECIAL NOTICES.

Wc expect to make out aud send him the accounts due us at Can ton and at other places iu the eouuty, aud hope they will be settled when presented. We dont waut to sue any of our friends, and dont intend to if we can induce them to pay without it. COURT WEEK IN CHEROKE. We spent two days last week at Canton in attendance upon the Superior Court, which convened at that place. Ilia Honor, Judge Knight, Presided with his usual diguity, aud Col. Bishop was at his post as attorney for the State. The grand Jury was organized by electing our clever friend, Jacob II auey, Esq., Foreman, aud went diligently to work iu the interests of the county. Our friend, Maj. E. G. G rambling, the popular Sheriff of the county thiuking it too warm to be comfortable with his coat on, doffed that part of his toilet, and toiled it iu his shirt sleeves. The people of Cherokee are a plain people and do pretty much as they please. We noticed quite a number of legal gentlemen within the bar, and those who had no business In hand were ready and waiting for jobs in their line. Col. James R. Brown being in feeble health, a number of important cases in which he was employed were pospoued until the next term of the court. On Tuesday a slander case was called, in which a Mr. Pitts, was plaintiff and Rev. Henry Smith defendant. Mr. Smith is a met hodist preacher of the northern way of looking at things, and having been involved in a law-suit concerning a mule which he had p urehased while on a visit north during the late “little unpleasantness,” aud failing to get what he tlio’t was justice iu the matter, said in hisliaste that the Pittses were all rogues, and was indited for the expression. He dispensed with the usual formality ofemploytng a law yer to plead his ease ; but with the permis sion of the kind-hearted judge, he proceeded to defend himself iu a very earnest and em phatic manner. He appealed “to the law and to the testimony,” said that he would read on the 724th page of the Code, but that the jury'need not listen to only a part of it. He also discoursed ou the law of nations, giv ing a Mr. Kent as his authority. The speeches beiug over, and the Judge’s charge delivered, the jury retired, aud after a short absence re turned with a verdict for the defendant. Mr. Smith, wc learu, expects to apply for admis sion to the bar at no distant day. Mr. Joseph M. Browu, second son of Ex-Gov - euor Brown, after a very creditable examina tion was admited to the bar on Tuesday. He expects in a short time to enter Harvard Uni versity for tne purpose of completeing his le gal education- Joe has a good mind, and with that application and self-reliance which are characteristic of his family, will doubtless one day reach the topmost round of the lader of fame. Gen. Wm. Phillips made au agricultural speech during recess ou Tuesday. He spoke in flattering terms of the agricultural resour ces of Cherokee, but deplored the want of in terest upon the subject on the part of the peo ple of that county ; stated the fact, that it nev er has a representative in any of the agricul tural fairs and conventions in which the neighboring eoun ties take so much interest, and from whicn they receive so much benefit- The speech was a very sensible and good one’ aud we hope will cause our Cherokee friends to awake from their slumbers and join iu the march of improvement. Steps were taken to get up a fair for the eouuty next fall, and we would rejoice in the success of such au im portant enterprise. NEW SPRING AND SUMMER MILLINERY GOODS! MISSE.
