All the liftilroads running into Shreveport have stopped their trains in consequence of malignant yellow fever prevailing there. The Superior Court of Bartow has proven a sore place for criminals this term, scarcely, one of them escaping punishment. All of the Kingston thieves and barn-burners were found guilty, and the only regret is that the law of the land only sends them to the chain-gang and penitentiary in stead of the gallows. The law in re lation to arson of out buildings ought to impose the death-penalty, and then be rigidly enforced. The fall is upon us with its cool nights and heavy morning dews.

GENERAL PRESENTMENTS OK TIIK GRAND JUIIV SELECTED FOR THE FIRST WEEK, SEPTEMBER TERM, 1873, BARTOW SU PERIOR COURT. We, the Grand Jury selected for the first week, September Term, 1873, beg leave to submit the following General Presentments: We have, by the usual committees, gone over the ground given us in charge, and report as follows: We, with ou«- predecessors, contin ue to endorse the utility and benefits of our Pauper farm. It is in a good state of cultivation ; the present crop on the farm promises a good yield of corn and cotton ; there was harvested 1 his year, sixty bushels of wheat, four hundred and fifty dozen oats, and we found fifty bushels of old corn on hand, also two mules, three milch cows and calves, three head of dry cattle, and nineteen head of hogs, all in good order. There are at present nineteen beneficiaries on the farm, well-cared for and contented. The expenses of this institution, including salary of Superintendent, J. F. Linn, to Ist September, is $745.80. We with pleasure commend Mr. Linn’s management, and recommend that he be retained in office. We recom mend that two children, and tution, be bound out. We find, upon examination of the books of the Justices of the Peace, that some have neglected to itemize their costs as required by an act of the Legislature, passed by the Gener al Assembly of Georgia, and approv ed Feb’y loth, 1873, amendatory to acts passed in 1871 and 1872, requiring them to keep itemized bills of cost. We recommend that they be excused for past neglect, as their attention imik, not have been directed to the law. We have carefully examined all the public buildingsand fences endu ing the same, and recommend soma repairs, which we deem necessary, to wit: the root of the Court House and the plastering overhead in the Court room need repairing, one cell in the jail is without a lock, the door of the Grand Jury room needs anew lock, and we recommend that the Ordinary have these repairs and deficiencies at tended to at once. We further rec ommend that tiie panel enclosing the bar be moved so as to give tnoie room inside the same. We also recom mend that the Jury boxes be enclos ed with a neat panel, and that the benches be removed and good sub stantial arm chairs be supplied in their stead. We also recommend that a comfortable chair, and cushion for the same, be furnished the Judge’s stand. We further recommend that a book case be supplied for the safe keeping of books, and that the same be placed in the Court room. We have, to the herd of our ability, in the short time allowed us, exam-1 ined the books of the Ordinary, Clerk of the Superior Court, County Treas- ! urer,Sheriff and County Surveyor, 1 ami are pleased to report them all | neatly, and as far as we are able to j judge, correctly kept. We recommend the Ordinary to let the building of a bridge across Little i Pine Log creek, on the road leading from Fairmount to Adairsville, whenever Gordon county shall build 1 a bridge on the same road, across Big Pine Log. We recoin mend that repairs on the pillar formerly supporting the bridge on the road leading from Euharleeto Kingston, be made at once, so as to prevent this pillar from further dam age by high water. The public roads have lost some of the high reputation formerly distin guishing our county, and we regret to feel it our duty, from such infor mation as comes before us, to present the Commissioners of the roads for the following districts, to wit: the sth, 4th, 17th and loth, with the rec ommendation that the Court shall not impose any penalty, provided said Commissioners will have their roads in good order by or before the next regular term of the Court; and we further call the attention of the Commissioners of the 16th district to that portion of road between T. J. Lyon’s and Mark Harden’s. We do recommend that the Ordi nary co-operate with the citizens of Cartersvilie and vicinity in building a free bridge across Etowah river be tween Puckett’s Ferry and the Rail road bridge, at a point where the old military bridge spanned the river, said bridge not to exceed in cost five thousand dollars, and half this cost to be paid out of the public funds of the county, the balance raised by subscription. We do recommend, and earnestly ! petition our members to tho General Assembly of Georgia, that they get the law repealed, so far as relates to Bartow connty, requiring bonds and security of contractors for building and keeping up bridges, as a matter of great economy to the county, thus saving insurance, and admitting all mechanics, without regard to estate, to compete in bidding. We do recommend tnat the 20 per cent, interest levied against Z. A. Mcßeynolds, former Tax Collector of Bartow county, be remitted by the Ordinary. We return our thanks for the cour tesy extended our body by his Hon or,Judge McCutchen, and the Solic itor General. Col. Hackett comes in for a full share of commendation for prompt attention to the duties of his office. We recommend that these Present ments be published in the county paper. Samuel W.

GENERAL PRESENTMENTS ur rnrit;KATOJCiiv s laj'.rnni rmt Tin: SECOND WEEK, SEPTEMBER TERM, 1873, BARTOW SU PERIOR COURT. We, the Grand Jury selected for the second week of September Court, 1873, beg leave to submit the follow ing General Presentments: We have, by the usual committees, gone over the ground given us in charge, and report as follows: We find the public roads in an in ferior condition, but efiorts are being made for their improvement, and we recommend that the Commissioners have all the roads worked and in good condition by the next term of Court, or show sufficient cause why it has not been done. We report the river banks at Milam’s ferry to be in bad condition; no banistering to boat, tardiness of the ferryman often caus ing unnecessary delay to the travel ing public, no rates of charge posted as required by law. We further recom mend that the Commissioners have the stumps taken out of that portion of the Possumtrot and Adairsville road lying between W. Shular’s and Z. B. Aycock’s. We find the roads are generally too narrow, and recom mend that they shall be made legal width. We, the Grand Jury, recommend the building of a free bridge at or near Puckett’s ferry, on the Etowah river. Also a free bridge at or near M. A. Hardin’s ferry, on the Etowah river, appropriating five thousand dollars for each bridge, one-half to be raised by private subscription and the balance to be paid by the county, but the county not to pay anything until the individual subscription is paid into the County Treasury, and no contract to be made until that is done, and that a committee of five for each bridge be appointed to locate said bridges, to wit: for Puckett’s bridge, Messrs. W. B. Wallace, J. T. Owen, F. A. Weems, N. D. Lewis, W. J. Hicks, R. C. Roberts, N. J. Dobbs; and for the Harden bridge, Messrs. Jason T. Bailey, Daniel Low ry’ James G. Rogers, Julius P. Hawks, John G. Colbert, M. A. Har den, Levi D. Jolly, and that the pil lars at the Calhoun ferry be sold to the contractor of the Harden bridge, at a fair price, by the Ordinary, if said contractor should desire to buy them. We have examined into the liabil ities of the connty, and find outstand ing orders for the years 1872 and 1873, amounting to $10,500 00. Estimate for Jury 1873, $3,010 00. Estimate for Constables &c., $3Ol 00. Commis sions of Collector, Receiver, and Treasurer $1,519 21, all amounting to $15,330 21. We also find that 100 per cent, on State tax assessed by our Ordinary amounts to about $15,054 43. From other sources $550 00, ma king $15,604 43. Insolvent list to be deducted, supposed will amount to from SIOO 00 to S3OO 00. This shows that with the close of this year the county will be out of debt. We recommend that the County Treasurer pay to W. B. Wallace fifty dollars, interest which he paid on money borrowed to carry on the work of building jail, the county having failed to pay him according to contract. We further recommend and ap point James 11. Gilreath to examine all the books of the officers of the county, and report to our next Grand Jury We report as to the publico ffiees, that they are in good condition, the books are neatly and correctly kept, and much credit is due to the officers for their gentlemanly deportment to all with whom they come in contact, and for their strict attention to busi ness. We report as to the public build ings, to wit: We have examined the Court House and find the roof in a leaking condition, and recommend that it be repaired at once, and that a good lock be put on the door of the Grand Jury room. We have exam ined the Jail and find it in good or der, with a contract already made to ceil the outside brick wall. We rec ommend that the cells have placed across each door, bars so as to protect the key holes of the locks on the cell doors, thereby making them doubly secure, with good locks and bars. We also recommend that the pres ent Court House be sold, or exchang ed for one to be erected, similar to the present one, and that the Ordina ry, with five commissioners, be au thorized to pay whatever difference they believe to be right, and if sold, for not less than two-thirds of the original cost, and anew building to be erected on a suitable and elligible lot located not less than 300 yards from the railroad. And we recom mend the appointment es a commit tee of five, to be associated with, and assist the Ordinary in locating, con tracting for, and erecting the same; committee, W. T. Burge, J. H. Gil reath, S. Disheroon, John G. Colbert, JohnS. Leake. We would also call the attention of the public to the frequent occurrence of accidents and loss of life on the line of the Western & Atlantic Rail Road. On Saturday night last, a citizen of this county, Mr. Abernathy, was struck by a locomotive and killed, within the corporate limits of Car tersville, the train passed through rapidly, and did not even stop to re port the accident or to enquire after the injuries of the wounded man. It is possible that if timely notice had been given and timely care taken of the wounded man, that he might have recovered. This appears to be a case of crimi nal negligence and carelessness, as it seems to us impossible that an engin eer should be at his post attending to his duty, and yet run his engine over the body of a man without hav ing seen it on the track. We would respectfully call the at tention of the Legislature to the im portance of the passage of an act to tax dogs, and we do insist that our Representatives in the Legislature exert themselves te have a law passed for this county, taxing all dogs not less than one and not more than two dollars a head. We would report that on examination, we find there are more than two thousand dogs in this county, and probably not half that number of sheep. The great falling off in sheep raising in this and adjoining counties, is the absence of all protection against this immense number of dogs. It is well known that this is one of the beet adapted counties in the State to the raising of sheep and the production of wool. We return our thanks for the cour tesies extended our body by his Hon or, Judge McCutchen, and the Solic itor General. We recommend that these Present ments be published in the Carters ville Standard & Express. Pierce M. B.

A. Word, Clerk S. C. COLOR AND AGRICULTURE. THE COLORED ELEMENT AND THE GRANGES. The question of color is obout to annoy the patrons of husbandry. The colored elements heretofore has not been known to the Order. The constitution ignors politics and re ligion, but says nothing about color. Should the requisite number of col ored people apply for a charter it would be issued; but whether the State granges would permit a color ed master to affiliate is a questsou of local jurisdiction entirely. In the South, when the Order is flourishing, no application has been received for a charter for a grange composed of colored people, but in Arkansas and Missouri the impending crisis is at hand. The Order now numbers up wards of 6,000 granges, having in creased over 800 during the month of August. From this time until De cember it is expected the increase will not fall short of 1,000 per month. In Pennsylvania a State grange will be organized on the 16th of Septem ber. It has taken root in Massachu setts and promises to spread rapid'y in the other New England States. Virginia and Ken tuck ey appear to be neutral ground, there being hut three granges in tiie former and one in the latter State. The clerical force at headquarters in this city has been increased. All the elements of a liveiy political campaign enter in to the business of the Order. Car toons illustrating the farmer’s posi tion wi th monopolists are being pre pared for general circulation, songs with words adapted to the object of the Order are being printed in New York by thousands, and a book call ed “Songs of the Grange” cannot he printed fast enough to fill the orders. The packages sent out from Wash ington have the following pasted on them, “compound extract of hay seed, an excellent mental invigora tor, warranted to cure itching for ofiice, political trickery, and sure to remove unfaithful servants from of fice.” Conneticut, Delaware, Flori da, Maine, Maryland, Nevada and Rhode Island are the only States where a grange has not been estab lished. New York has at present only nine granges. A JOURNEY UNDER CHLORO FORM. The Loudon Lancet of August 15 says: “A novel, very interesting, and useful application of chloroform has just been made by Dr. Squarey, of of the Soho Hospital. A lady had been subjected to an examination under chloroform on Tuesday last. The husband of the patient wished to move her as soon as possible to her home at Norwood, but in her then condition of pain and exhaus tion a journey was out of the ques tion. The advisibility of her return being strongly urged by her friends, it was proposed to perform the jour ney under chloroform, and this was actually accomplished on Wednes day. The patient was antesthetized in her bed in Geoige street, Hinuw ver square, having no knowledsdM her impending journey. She then carried down stairs and placed in an invalid-carriage, driven to her home at Norwood, and taken out and carried up stairs to her own bed, without at any time actually recog nizing she was on her way home. The journey occupied an hour and a half, and the patient was under chlo roform about two hours.” UNDEVELOPED VIGOR. The leeble and debilitated usually fancy they arc in a more hopeless condition than they really are. The resources of nature are not easily exhausted. Eveu when strength and appetite fail, when the eyes are heavy and lustreless, the complexion pallid, the nerves tremulous, the body attenuated, and the mind depressed, there is generally a reserve «f latent power behind such palpable evidences of weakness. Various modes of treatment are resorted to by physicians in the hope of developing and rendering avail able this store of sleeping vitality, but the surest, and indeed the only thoroughly safe and reliable means of awakening the dor mant energies of the system *s a course of Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters. Electricity, shower baths, the flesh brush, sea bathing, &c., may be well enough in their way, as auxiliaries, but they do not reach the source of the evil. All physical debility proceeds either from a derangement of the functions of the assimilating, secretive and vital organs or from a sluggish consiitutkm. In either case, and also in cases where both causes exist, the Bitters will invariably produce an immediate and salutary change in the condi tion of the patient, and eventually effect a complete eure. None of tfie dangerous alka loids, too often administered as tonics, can be otherwise than deleterious under such cir cumstances, and to give mercury is postively criminal. The direct effect of the great vege table specific will be manifested in an im proved appetite, a more cheerful frame of mind, a gradual return of strength, an increase of flesh, and a healthier conplection. an while, however, the constitution, il inert 'and feeble, will have been roused and renovated by the subtile elements of invigorat ou taiued in the Bitters.
