XOur subscribers will please to
notice that when they see this X on the
margin of their paper, their term of subscrip- j
tion has but two weeks to run.
OWhen an O appears, their time has ex
pired. When we make this Owe erase
the name from our book. We have hinted at
those of onr patrons who have allowed them
selves to get in arrears, until we find that
hiuU do no good. We cannot afford to fur
nish our paper for nothing. For the guidance
of those who have been for some time be
hiud, we will make a figure corresponding to
the number of months for which they owe,
and if within two weeks there is no response,
we shall erase the name and place the account
in the hands of an officer for collection. We
have no desire to deprive our friends of the
Itaxdard and Express, but we cannot af
ford to furnish it gratis, and pay the postage
too.

Thursday morning, from Mr. H. A.
Lumsden, who expects to issue the first
number of the Courier at Ellijay, on the first
of September next. We wish him success.
We spent a very pleasant hour

Tuesday morning last, and anticipate, with
pleasure, a repetitition of his visits to our

On Tuesday morning last, young
John Candler, of this place, exbibiied to us
specimens of copper ore taken from the mines
in Carroll county,Ga., also specimens of quartz
rock, rich in gold, taken from what is known
as the Clopton lot, owned by a company, of
whom Mr. Bagwell is one. These are val
uable deposits, and pan out well.
We believe that a “cold spell’ 7
comes upon us every summer, lasting two or
ttree days—most generally happening in Ju
ly. This year it did not occur until August,
and it has now been of wintry tendency at
night and early in the morning for the past
10or 13 days past. The nights have been so
cool that blankets and quilts were necessary
lor the comfort of sleepers.
The subject of copying and enlarg
ing photographs etc., is becoming quite a
prominent one. We insert to-day, a commu
nication relative to it, which it would pay
those who are interested to read. It will be
seen that the placing the picture before the
Camera and increasing the size, is not the
only thing to be done to get an enlarged pic
ture, but that it requires considerable work
to accomplish this desirable effect.

The first number of the Cherokee

Dalton, has reached us. This is a nice quarto
of five columns to the page, chock full of ex
cellent reading matter, and as it is gotten up
by H. A. Wrench, it is almost superflous to
say that it is done up in most excellent style.
The subscription is but 50 cents per annum,
and should have a spleudid patronage, which
we hope it will get.

We had the great pleasure of a

fellow-citizen, now fellow-laborer on the tri-
Pod at Columbus, Ga.,Mr. Francis Fontaine.
We were very much pleased to greet him. He
is looking remarkably well. Frank makes a
tip-top editor,but seems to regret very much
that only politics and trade are acceptable to
the reader. Tine Columbus Times is one
among the most valued of our exchanges.

In the spring of 1873, Dr. O. Pink
erton, whose place is situated within one mile
of Cartersvilie, in a Southerly direction, pur
chased a large number of grape settings of the
Clinton and Concord varieties, from John
Phenix, of the Bloomingsdale (111.) Nurseries,
and planted them upon the west side of a very
rocky hill. The vines immediately took root,
and assuming a vigorous and healthy growth,
astonished their owner by giving signs of
bearing this season. The Doctor says he gave
them no special attention, but the latitude,the
climate and the soil all seemed to suit
and the young vines advanced with astonish
ing rapidity. He has four acres in vineyard,
and there is scarcely a skip in the whole track,
except in a small space where the rocks were
too numerous and the soil too scarce, just
there they did’ntdo so well. We may say,how
ever, that he has quite three acres of the most
beautiful vines all healthy and vigorous—and
the majority of them in bearing. The Doctor
thinks he will beable to gather within a few
days upwards of a 1000 pounds from them.
There is no evidence of the least particle of rot
or any other disease whatever, and the proba
bility is, that now—the second year—a large
and handsome profit will be realized from this
beautiffil vineyard. Many of the vines will
yield upwards of ten pounds of the luscious
fruit this season.
This is an evidence of what our soil and cli
mate may do. There is no question but
grapes will pay far better than any kind of
orchard and Dr. Pinkerton is determined to
put the matter to a test. If he docs not realize
a remunerative profit during the present year,
it will be his own fault.
Gus Skinner has pushed a lively
trade with his Texas Sugar, during the past
week. A neighboring grocery merchant agreed
to take eight barrals of the seventeen at nine
cents a pound—when, (after he had tasted it)
hog killing time commenced. Another enter
prising merchant wanted ten barrels ot it, aud
advised Skinner to take the remaining seven
himself so as to make a cheap corner in the
sugar market, but changed his notion wheu
he crammed a handful of it in his mouth. The
best sell, however was perpetrated upon a
close neighbor. Skinner took a specimen of
it to him and told him that it was salt. The
neighbor stoutly denied it, and took in a pret
ty good mouthful. He then was perfectly
satisfied that it was the saltiest kind of Balt.
About one-half of the denizens of the burg,
many of whom were good judges of 6ugar by
its looks, were sold by it.

The Athens News is up in arms because the
Cleveland Banner advises it not to take
spread eagle musical advertisements just for
the love of the thing. The Banner is right.
The press of both States have been too long
humbugged in this way, and the sooner they
stop all such transactions and ask cash lor
what they do, the better it will be. These mu
sical advertisements, the way they are offered
are veritable humbugs.— Dalton Enterprise.
Amen, Brother Hanbury. Every word of
this is true. We have two or three proposi
tions now to advertise pianos, and the bait
which is thrown out, is to give us for an ad
vertisement, for which we would charge prob
ably 975 or 9100, a due bill for two or three
hundred dollars, to he used in the purchase oj
one of thei# 9600 or 9700 pianos. Thus it
will be seen the advertisers get the val
ue of their pianos, and their advertising is real
ly gratis. We don’t bite at any such proposi
tions, if we do use a patent outside.
Cheap Buggies are offered at

A Treat !— Mr. George Allison, a
gentleman of education and culture, of Leba
non, Tennessee, who is now en route for his
home, will give a free lecture at the City Hall
to-night. This gentleman has been spending
the last three years of his life in Honduras,
Central America, and has been persuaded to
address our citizens about the people who in
habit that country, their customs, habits, etc.
He is perfectly familiar with the mysterious
and ancient cities now underground, of that
country, and will give us a delightful account
of them. He has had many adventures, also,
and will thrill the audience with a recital of
them. We hope our people will go to hear
him. There is no cost —remember that.

Miss Nora Skipper, a youDg
lady of much culture, from Griffin, Ga., has
consented to take charge of the musical de
partment of the Cartersvilie Seminary, and
enters immediately upon the dischare of her
duties. She comes with the strongest testimoni
als as to her thoroughness as a musician ,and is
beyond a doubt valuable acquisition to the
community for the benefit of those numerous
young ladies who desire to avail themcselves
of the opportunity of acquiring a thorough
musical education. Miss Skipper is said to
have been taught by the finest teachers in the
State. Terms 94 per month.

One of the parties convicted before
Commissioner Collins, lately is from Cherokee
county, and is a well-digger. He dug a well
in Canton recently and struck a vein of corn
whisky fromwhich he was realizing a large
profit dealing it to his customers a pint at a
time, who would let down bottles on a string
until some nearer United Slate official heard
of it, and “lifted” the thrifty citizen to terra
firma’ and brought him before Collins. Too
bad.
If you want Shingles, or Lumber,
call on J. M. TOPD.
Plows.—The largest assortment of
plows in the State can be found at Mark W.
Johnson & Woodruff’s Agricultural Store, At
lanta Ga. Among the favorites this season
are the Southern Star, two horse steel, the
Lone Star, one horse steel and the Farmers
friend, a cast plow. Either of these can be
furnished at very moderate prices and will
give satisfaction. Also, Murphy’s Subsoil
Flow.
Important to Medical Stu
dents.—The Trustees of the Louisviui.k
Medical College (Louisville, Ky.) have in
accordance with the provisions of their char
ter, established a Beneficiary System, where
by any young man studying medicine and be
ing unable to pay for his education, may re
ceive a Beneficiary Sebollarship, which relieves
him of payment of the Professors’ fees. The
public will he pleased to learn that this well
known College has abolished all fees for its
diplomas ; the Faculty being thus wholly un
interested pecuniarily in the result of ail ex
aminations for graduation. For particulars,
address Dean of Louisville Medical College,
163 Second street, Louisville, Ky.
We were sadly disappointed, on
Wednesday night, in not getting rain. The
indications, all day, were that a heavy rain
would fall upon our town, but we had only
a couple of sprinkles. Immediately in town
the gardens and potato patches are burning
up for the want of rain. We hear of rains all
about through the couuty, and are glad of it.
We hope they will continue through the sea
son until the growing crops are sufficiently
matured.
After penning the above, we had a slight
shower on Thursday morning, about enough
to lay the dirt.
Mr. Sayre, of Kirkpatrick and
Sayre, told us on Wednesday morning, that ou
the night previous, he and Mrs. 8. were stand
ing upon the gallery of their house about
ten o’clock when a meteor arose to the north
east, about an angle of forty-five degrees fiom
the earth, and after “shooting” for a consider
able distance, exploded like a sky-rocket,
throwing up a shower of sparks. This is the
first time we have ever heard of a meteor
shooting from the earth upwards, and should
like very much to have seen it.
The following beautiful specimen
of chirography was handed to the late grand
jury, by a bailiff of this county. It is useless
to say he failed to make a case.

We were much gratified to meet
Rev. Mr. Jarrell, who returned this morning
from his visit to the north east portion of our
State—taking Nacoochce Valley and Tallulah
Falls in his course. Mr. J. is quite enthusias
tics as we expected he would be, not only over
the appearance of the Falls, but upon his re
ception and eutertainmet at the princely man
sion of Col. Nicbolls in Nacooehee Valley.
We find upon our desk this morn
ning a copy of the Weekly Bulletin of Rome,
Ga.,a very handsome and well gotton up sheet.
This paper is new to us although the copy be
fore us is number eight of volume five.
Why it is that we never heard of there being
such a neat little sheet in our neighboring
city is somewhat of a mystery to us. We
place it upon our exchange list with pleasure.

home after a most delightful trip) to Athens

lie’ll be bound he attends every other one he
can reach. Capt. W. reports a great quantity
of rain from here to Athens ou both railoads.

on our table the fourth or last num
ber for the current year of this truly beautiful
work. Mr. Viek is one among the most suc
cessful horticulturalists of the North. His
seeds to our certain knowledge, are good, and
his orders are puntually and faithfully attend
ed to. His Po6t Office is Rochester, N. Y.
During the past few weeks some
twenty persons, for selling liquor without li
cense, illicit distilling and other violations of
law have been tried and convicted before
Commissioner Collins, in this place. These
parties are from the counties ofGilmore, Pick
ens Fannin and Cherokee, respectively.
We had the great pleasure of a call
from Judge E. F. Best, brother of our friends
Dr. B. and Hez. We greatly enjoyed the 6hort
time spent in the company of this gentleman.
Like the Best stock, he bears the mark of a
clever fellow.
The new Chimney Stack on the
mill of our energetic young friend Woodward,
on the Holloy Flouring Mill looks quite
majestic—it gives the mill quite a massive
appearance.
A Friend showed us a letter he
received a few days ago, on business, which
consists of 55 words, not counting the definite
articles and the capital I’s, and of those there
were just 25 spelled correctly.
We would call the special atten
tion to the advertisement in another clonmn
of the Fair an exhibition at Rome in October
next. From all the evidence we have, we are
satisfied this is going to be a good thing.
Col. J. J. Howard laid upon our

from his plantation uear town.

Copying and Enlarging Pictures.
This is a matter which is now eliciting con
siderable attention on the part of our people,
and considerable surprise lias been expressed
that it should have assumed such gigantic pro
portions. But when we come to look at the
immense number of cherished Daguerreotypes,
photographs and ferrotypes in which the coun
try abounds, of dear friends and relatives
whose pictures are all we have to remember
their faces by; or pictures, taken, perhaps, at
an early period of life, when age and cares had
not written so plainly their everlasting marks
of decline upon them; and learn that they can
have those cherished pictures—oft times small
and inferior as specimens of art—so enlarged
and inproved as to represent fully the advance
ment of the fine arts (in this direction) of the
the present day, it is no wonder they avail
themselves of the opportunities presented to
have this beautiful work done.
A description of the mode of doing this may
prove interesting to your readers, many of
whom, especially in this section of the State,
know nothing about it.
The collection of the pictures, for responsi
ble companies is done through their regularly
authorized agents.
To be fully equipped for copying and enlarg
ing requires quite a variety of fine and costly
instruments, made expressly lor the purpose—
and to operate these successfully requires the
mostskilllul artists.
The picture to be copied is arranged in one of
these instruments ana there is made from it a
negative, or transparent picture on glass.
This negative is then nlaced upon a frame, and
bv an artist, retouched, so, as nearly as possi
ble, to touch out all soots and blemishes that
existed in the original, heightens the effect of
the lights and shades, anu does also what is
called moaulates the picture, which consists in
blending and softening those parts where
there is too much contrast oi light and shade.
The negative is then printed, and Jrom this, by
means of what is called a sun camera a orint
or picture of the size desired is obtaineu—on
cloth, if to be painted in oil, or on paper if to
be painted in water colors or other styles of
finish. It is now ready for the artists who
paint or finish it according to the desired,
either plain, in oii, crayon, India in.c, pastel or
water colors. The price of these pictures
range from five or six dollars to five hundred
dollars, owing altogether to the size and man
ner in which it is to be executed. There are
employed in this business some of the finest
artists in the country.
This business is carried on very extensively
in the United States, there being several large
companies in northern and eastern cities en
gaged exclusively in it. One of the largest and
probably amongst the finest of them is the
