Martin, a cit;z u of this p'aee. It appears that Mr. Martin had gone to ihe track of the Macon and Western railroad, near McGin ty’s Saw Mill in the city of Macon, for the purpose of returning to Forsyth on the northern bound freight train. Arriving at the point above uamed and finding that be wi several hour* ia advance of the train, he rested upon the track, laboring under a heavy stupor and drowsiness earned by .•X‘'e*sive Rotations of aicholic liquors, be un guardedly fell asleep, and consequently lost all consciousness. In this state the incoming train from Atlanta ran over the body, causing ins’ant death. Mr Martin possessed a fine and commanding personal appearance, and his address was that of a gentleman. His character for Integrity and honesty, so far as we have been informed, was be yond reproach. His charily and sympathy for the distressed was great. Mr. Martin leaves an interesting and devoted family to mourn hi- untimely death, and to whom we tender our sincere sympathy. The Atinn'a Constitution live* the loilowing tiicgrapbica! sketch of Harris, ot the Savannah News : J. C. Hairis. or rather Jinks Conundrum Harris, was born iu The Monroe Advertiser office in the early part of the fifteenth century, and as a baby wae noted for his disposition to laugh with out cause save that furnished iu the meio-dramat ic jocularity of bis own oosorn. When only three days old be ia reported to have snickered out in meeting, which demonstration of jovial precocity was hut a harLiriger of future triumphs iu the arena of the comic. His earliest progenitor is supposed to be a Frencbmau somewuat known to fame, a chap named Rabelais. His next noticeable ancestor in direct line was ouc to whom Jinks bears a striking resemblance, a jolly old buck, answering to the title of Sir John Falstafl. Another pro genitor of note was a piratical sort of barltquin, who flourished in the time of Queen Elizabeth. His name was Mark Twain. Harris exudes, drools, eafs, breathes, looks, imagines, and gesticulates jokes. He, indeed, murmurs jokes, even iu his tender hours of love, •* which the saint” he is Very fond of. • • Portraits. —We have examined the life-sized portraits of Generals Lee and Jackson, now of fered for tale by the Rfcv.

The agent offers these handsome portraits for sale, by authority of the Lee and Jackeou Monumental Association, for the purpose of raising funds for the erection of monuments to the memory of these distinguished chief’aine. The monuments have to be erected in Lexington, Ya. Sad Accident. —Mr. W. D.

Dear Advzktisek.— After a liw tin ty adults, 1 hurried aboard the cars, ana Lu nd a comfortable seat fronting the passengers, the whistle gave the signal to go, and waving a good-by to a few dear friends at the College, we moved off with a speed of twenty miles an hour. The cars were near.y full, hut a casual glance did not discover a single familiar lace. And now, new TO SPEND MY TIMS w-a a problem difficult to solve; but, quick as thought, curiosity suggested the application of physiology and phrenology :n reeding the charac ter of the passengers. It was evident I had be fore ui ample materia! for experiment. Toe first face that attracted attention was tbit of a lady, fronting me on the right. She lad a long, sharp nose, and sharp features generally. Her lip- were thin, the upper one short betwecu the mouth and nose, and the chin sharp and projecting. Her visage was thin, and the temperament nervous bilious. It required no pniloopher to decide that she was a “ woman with a will,” proud aud haughty, and that her nusband was badly “ hen pecked.” Before teaching Atlanta, a few simple demonstrations satisfied me ihat her Lee was cor rectly read. Just beyond her was a gentleman with a florid comp’txioa, red nose, blood vesse e of the eyes full and distended, lips rather thick, )as.e large, and the organ of alimcutiveuess large. He 1* a young man, and will find It hard to con tio). bis !appetite. Ttiere is no emell of liquor on him now, but he is an epicure, and is in danger of tilling a drunkard’! grave. A little further on is a lady with a pleasing face, large, prominent, hazel eyes, rather thick lips, round short chiu, and ner vous temperament. She is, beyond doubt, a “ neighborhood gossip,” aud probably a hypocrite. But 1 have not time to record all the cases ex amined. We are in “ West End,” and will soon enter the future inland New York City of the South. ATLANTA is evidently btcomiug a huge city. Accompanied by my triend, Dr. S-, I rode tlnough the city along s veral streets, and was struck with the evidences of enterprise and activity of business. As many as twenty counties, large aud wealthy, do most oi their trading here. More than SIOO,OOO of North ern capital was invested in real estate in Atlanta last year. The secret of its rapid progress is, that nearly every parson, old and young, male and ie niale, has something to do. I found two little boys, eight and ten years old, iu a room at home, with little sticks, tissue paper, paste and thread. I called out, “ Hey, little toys, what are you driv ing at?” “ Making kites, sir." “ What caa you do with them 1 ” “ Sell them, sir.” “To whom do you sell them ? ” “To our schoolmates, the sons of rich folks.” “ How rnaßy can you make iu a day ? ” “O, wc can make a nice kite in half an hour. We go to school every day, and make kites in the evening and at night.” “ What do you get for a kite? ” “ Bivecents for a common one, and ten cents lor a large, fine oue.” “ But March winds will aoou be over and then you can’t fly kites, what then ? ” “ China berries come iu then, and we make pop-guns aud sell them.” “ China berries get too old after a while ; what then?” “We make tops and sell them.” “Well, boys, yon are bound to get rich, it you live long enough.” The above will do for an illustration of enterprise in Atlanta. At 0.15 A. m., we left Atlanta on the Air Line Railroad, and at distance oi fifty miles, fare $2.65, we reached the CITY OW GAINESVILLE. This city is making rapid strides in population, wealth and convenience. I interviewed the Mayor, Judge Candler, whom I found very courteous, well-informed and communicative. He informed me that fifteen counties, nine in Georgia aud six In North Carolina, do nearly all their trading in Gainesville. In the fall aud winter season, as many as forty to sixty wagonß a day come into the city, loaded with corn, oats, wheat, eggs, chick ens, butter, cabbage, apples, chestnuts, etc Da ring one season SOO bushels of chestnuts were old iu the city for $1,600 One meichant, hi oue seasou, made a profit o: $5,000 ia buying ana selling produce, and in the 6pring made a nett profit of $4,000 selling guano. An immense quantify of cabbage is sold every tall at three to five cents a head, tine ones, too. Year before last, 500 bales of cotton were sold in this market, last year 1200, and this year the merchants expect 3,000 baler. Last year Col. Wilkie, near here, aud some others, with the help of guano, made a bale to au acre. The city is out of debt, and has voted to expeud SIO,OOO iu erecting a splendid College edifice, to he completed by next summer. The people aie waking up ou He subject of education. Three years ago the value of all the real estate in the city was $100,000; now it is over $500,000. Then the population was 1,000 to 1300 ; now it is over 8,000. There ia a Methodist, Baptist and Presbyterian church, and but two dram shops in the city. On yesierday-=-Suuday— \ decided to attend di vine service. The better-half of my host being a Baptist, we all went to her church to worship. It being understood that a law country man would preach in the Baptist house oi worship, the Meth odist congregation came over and filled ! ho house. At night, the same preacher having been iLvited very courteously by the Presbyterian pastor to occupy his pulpit, the appointments ut the Meth odist and Baptist churches were called in, and all three of the congregations met in the Presby terian church. The very best of iraternal feeliug seems to exist among all the Christian denomina tions. Hard by, is one of the best limestone Bpriugs in tne world, two valuable chalybeate springs, one sulphur spring, aud freestone water in abundance. This county—Hail—casts about 200 radical votes and 1600 Democratic votes. Lumber sells at sl2 per thousand, brick at per thousand, corn 70 cents, fodder 75 cents, eggs 15 cents. A good mechanic can be employed at $1 35 to $1.50 per day acd find himself. A nice residence of six to eight rooms, finished in first rate style, can be put up here for SISOO, which iu Forsyth would cost $3,500. But more aeon. Spalding. April, 1873. Mr. EiHi&r ■ Did jou ever read Ryu Johnson’s works? II yon never have, don't do if. However, I found this in ’em : “ Chris.—Do yon love singing, Lady Cliloe? Chloe. —O, passingly. Chris.— Entreat the ladies to entreat me to sing then, I beseech yon.” So, from this, you perceive that, about three hundred years ago, a device for obtaining noto riety tyas used, which is resorted to even to this day, and, in south, with great benegt. I have al ways been known as a dull, modest fellow, sadly deficient in that gieat requisite of euccess—assu rance. Bat now I have a proclivity to follow ex ample, an itching for notoriety—in spots! and make to you tDe entreuly Crispinus made to Chloe. Notoriety, sir, often stands one in better stead llu.n fsuae, or high char, ter, or great abili ties ; and as it is infinitely more easily attained, either as to expense, time, labor cr 6ufferiug, I’ll e'en qiakp a plunge lor it. For the first step, I “ beseech ” you to put a short notice iu your pa per whenever I happen to visit your town, as thus : “ Personal. —\Ve had the pleasure aud honor of a short interview, to-day, with our distin guished fellow-ciuzcu, Col. Smelifungus. Upon the great questions which now engross public attention, he' expressed with his characteiutie manliness and candor, his decided opinion, &c.” Now, when you write it, some who read it know it to be a bald lie ; but as tar as you are concerned |t does pot matter a whit—it is your editorial pre rogative, and no man of e pi,U would condescend to be *sn editor it this right was even questioned. This knowledge of the few does not amount to a cavil; ouuidtrs—the great multitude—are un conscious of the fallacy, and aie really rejoiced to finds v distinguished Colonel” endorsing and maintaining their side of the “great questions - ’ — as, ot course, I am r< presented as being on the popular side. I have spent many anxious moments as to the judiciousness of being a Colonel. The result, however, keeping in view the eDd sought, is a Vlear conviction of its propriety. To be called papism, 9 r Qc petal, excites no though’, nq inquiif ip the ipind—-o speculation, any more than tteUf | IM ii tks itresti-it’i a slpl fact ; but “ Colonel,” sir, that ward belongs to notoriety. Then, per force and prudence, I tnuz be a Colonel, for a time, at least. Right here I might as well notice the objection to the title as being too common. Ihero are, according to my estimate, between thirty-one and thirty-three thousand Color.els in this State. Such figures incontestably portend competi’lou and rivalry. So be it, and let it be hot and heavy, long and loud straight out and backhanded. I'm not ap pa led. No, Held* ! I’ll be a Colonel. ’lhe in stances of tuo-e basking in perihelion, and thus-* nearing it, and those swirging up tti*- erbit, are to) numerous to admit o’ a question >f its feasi bility or wisdom. Notice the report of unv meet ing cf citizeus—railroad. Canal, manufacturing, political, rgricnPurai—for ai.y purpose and every purpose, or no permanent purpose at ail—ad the active members of these meetings, and those tak ing an active part iu the proceedings as commit tees, Ac., are Colonels or Honor*bit*. These Honoratiies are, however, only Colonels raised a grade. A !ate number of the Cincinnati Enqui rer represents the present Governor of Ohio, Noyes, a Massachusetts carpet-bagger, as most probably owing his present position to tais “ en treat somebody to entreat me” policy. But I will not open the whole pkn now. I havs three questions ready for discu rieo; ts soon oe, I can get seme fellow to a-k my views, I'll give ’em. But ere I close, seeing you have refused the use of your columns to the two sets of temperance men,and as it is good and pleasant and graceful for all controversialists to quit with happy and friend ly feelings, I heartily recommend the following translation of old Choctaw Anacreon’s “ode t<> the rose,” be sung by the aforesaid c-uitr •ver-ja! ists. Can you tell me the name of the transiatui ? Was it Tom Moore, or Horace Walpole, oi L >rd Middlesex, or Wilds, or Meek, cr Massehgate ? TO KCjflkN.

Half Alive. —lt is a sad thing to pass through life only half a live. Yet there are thou sands whose habitual condition is one of languor and debility. They corapiaia of no specific dis ease; they sutler no positive pain ; but they have no relish lor anything which * fluids mental or sensuous pleasure to their more robust and ener getic fellow-bet litre. In nine cases out of ten this state ol lassitude and torpor arises arises from a morbid stouiaci ludijresti'.n destroys the enerstv of both mind and body. When the waste o! nature is not fnppii. and by a due end regular assTuulatioii of the food, every organ is starved, every Itr’Ctlon interrupt ad. No, wh v t dm s comm m sense suggest under these ureumstHiieee ot depression ? The system needs rousing and sir cheun g ; not merely for an hour or two, to sink afterwards into more pit iable condition than tv r (as it most assuredly would do it an ordinary alcoholic stimulant was resorted lot, but radicallv md permanently. How is this desirable di.tcct to ba accomplish ed? Ti e answer to tills question, founded on the unvarying experience ot a quarter of a century, is easily given. Infuse new vigor into the diges tive organs by a course ot Hosb tter’s Stomach Bitters. Do not waste time in udminDtering tem porary remedies, but wake the system up by re cuperating the fountain head of physical streugt.h end energy, the great organ upon which all the other organs depend (or iheir culture and sup port. By the time, that a doz’ n bottles of the great vegetable tonic and invigorant have been taken, the feeble frame of the dyspeptic will begin to feel its benign inflence. Appetite will be created, and with appetite the capacity to digest wbr.t it craves. Persevere until the cure is complete— until healthful blood, fit to be iu the material of flesh and muscle, bone and nerve and brain, flows through the channels of circulation, instead oi the wattry pabulum with which tb<y have heretofore been itnperiectly nourished.
