Junior proprietor ot The Monkob Advertiser,

tt is hoped that each member will attend
promptly on next Saturday.
Special Term or Superior Court.— Upon the
petition of a number of citizens of the county.
Judge Hall has determined to hold a special term
of the Superior Court, commencing cu Monday
the 12th ot Msy, for the purpose of trying the
prisoners now confined in jail. There is five to
be tried—three charged with the killing of Jim
Cleveland, and two with fnfantlcide. All the
parties are negroes.
The prisoners will doubtless have a fair and
impartial trial, as our citizens have no other mo
tive in their trials, save that of sustaining and
upholding the law. If they are guilty, retribution
will come sharp and quick; if .innocent, tbev will
he acquitted. ■
A Sudden Death.—Mr. Isaac Winter was at
tacked with pneumonia on ia*t Wednesday morn
ing Aud died on Saturday at 10 o clock. Mr Win
ter was a native of M ojland, and bad been la tL s
State about twenty years. He served through
the Mexican war with honor and credit. A! the
battle of Cherubusco he received two wounds,
the effects of which could be seen to the day of
his death.
Though past the meridian of life when the war
between the States began, be enlisted in a Georgia
regiment and served galian.ly until its close.
In his fifty-seventh year the “ good old man" de
trends into his grave without reproach and with
out enemies. And we have reason to believe that
apart from his family, the tear wi-1 glisten upon
the eyes of many who were familiar with his vir
tue*, recipients of his blessings and cognizant of
his Christian character.
To his bereaved and disconsolate family, ve
tender our sincere sympathy.
Grand Chapter. — We are informed by Col
Geo. W. Adams, who has just returned home, that
the Convocation of the Grand Chapter on last
Wednesday, in Augusta, was one of the largest
(over forty Chapters being represented) end most
interesting that has been convoked in a series
of years.
The following officers were elected: Geo. W.
Adams, Grand High Priest; Luther G. Glenn,
Deputy Grand High Priest; W. J. Johnson, Grand
King; Robert M. Bmith, Grand Scribe.
The amendment to the Constitution, removing
the Convocation of this body from Augusta. was
resisted with considerable warmth, but finally car
ried. The question was then raised as to what
point the body should select. Atlanta, never a
laggaid in anything that will insureto her advan
tage, entered the contest with Macon C pon a
count it appeared that Macon tad eighty-one
votes to Atlanta forty. The cause which induced
this change was of an entirely economical nature,
as it will cost some eight hundred dollars per an
num less in mileage of the members.
Improvements op Forsyth.— The casual visi
tor of our town will scarcely note the improve
ments tba* have been steadily going on for the
last few years, and, indeed, our own cltiz'ns will
be surprised when they are fold tiie large amount
of money that has been expended iu thi& way.
By personal observation, and a careful estimate
founded upon reliable data, we find that 6icce
the first of January, 1868, thera has been thirty
five new residences erected, sggr< gating in cost
the sum of fifty-five thousand dollars; six build
ings, used for business purposes, at an aggregate
cost ot sixty-five tbo isand dollars ; a id to these
the improvements and erection of other buildings
not included above, twenty thousand dollars,
which is a moderate estimate, and we have the
snug sum of one hundred and forty thousand dol
lars invested in substantial real estate.
ffhese improvemen’s are attributable to many
causes, prominent amongst the many are two,
viz: Our fine educational facilities; the Building
and Loan Association, and, we may add, the
prosperity'und cnterpiise of our citizens.
■ .
Dentistry. — We take specal pleasure in call
ing attention to the new dental card of Dr. L. 8.
Morse, to be found iu another column. Dr. M.
ha* been engaged in the practice of dentistry in
onr town for a number ot years, ar.d has ever
borne the reputation of being a first class dental
operator. Those who have secured hi 6 profession
al services invariably pronounce him the most
skillful dentist in the Btate. We had oc
casion a few doys ago to call at h's office, and
whilst there were shown three or tour sets of ar
tificial teeth which the Dr. had just finished, and
were struck with the remarkable beauty of finish
of the work, and the life-like appearance of the
teeth We cheerfully recommend Dr. Morse as a
gentleman fully competent to gi\e entire satisfac
tion to ail his patients
Jasper Superior Court.— This Court con
vened on !a-t Monday for the purpose of trying
the case of the State vs. G. D. (freer for murder.
Greer, it will be remembered shot and killed Mr.
Joseph Miitdlebrooks about eighteen months ago.
At the last term of Jasper Court, Greer was ar
raigned and the case submitted to the jury, but
they could net agree and a mistrial was declared.
Last week it was impossible to get a jury ; the
persons whose names wero in the jury-box was
summoned, and out of the whole, only seven
were competent or acceptable.
The case has been removed to Putnam County,
and will be tried on the 4th Monday in this
month.
More Residences Nkbdbd.— Unquestionably
if we had more residences in onr town the popu
lation would increase. We know of sevetal gen
tlemen who reside in the county, that are exceed
ingly anxious to locate in our midst, for the pur
pose of availing themselves of the superior advan
tages of our educational institutions, but are una
ble to procure residences. Certainly the demand
for houses and the margin for profits is sufficient
ly laige to authorize our moneyed men and prop
erty holders to erect a number of hardsotne
dwelling houses. We hope the matter may be
investiga’ed, as such a movement will insure to
the individual and collective advancement of the
interest of all.
At Work.— lt Is with undisguised pleasure,
that we announce the resumption of work upon
the large and extenrive Sale Stables. It will be
quite an ornament to that portion of the Town
in which it is located, and it will be a standing
monument to the memory of the ingenious archi
tect who planned the structure.

Correspondence.
Editor Advertiser: When I handed yon *:. K cotn
mun’citioa signed “ Br-rul y’, D met,” I had
do though! ot being dra.n into a discussion of
the merits of the question o' Fcdcc, or No Fence.
I had thought our older and mote experienced
farmers would take hold of the matter and present
it to the public more clearly than myself.
To the friend* of the cause in Red Bone I ten
der my thanks for their encouragement and efforts
to advance the cause cf the people. Your corres
pondent “ Boqrgeois ” certainly means to be teiift
us, or means nothing. He gives the name cf No
Fence to the law ; it may be that when the law is
submitted for ratification or rejection, that it will
be distinguished in that way; but I understand
the law to be to prevent stock frem running at
large—to force the owners to confine them in pas
tures, small lots or houses, or in any way their
interest may suggest. For the life of me I can
see nothing burdensome in the law ; my motto is,
that those who will raise and keep stock should
do it at their own expense.
It may be said that those who have stock, and
no lands would be forced to sell them, be de
prived cf such benefits, but this is not the case.
Satisfactory arrangements can be made with those
whose lands they till. The question has been
fully and ably presented by the present Governor
of South Carolina and Tennessee and I take it
most of your readers are familiar with their argu
ments. Nine-tenths of the Umber in oar county
has been cut down and used, leaving the remain
der in small bodies, and in most cases inside the
cultivated farms. It takes eighteen hundred pan
els ot fence to enclose one lot of land; divide this
into fifty acre fields, nine hundred panels more is
required, making twenty-seven hundred panels;
the whole amount of land rendered useless by this
fencing is by no means less than fifteen acr.s, and
I say without hesitation that seven and one half
acres more is left uncultivated, which amounts to
a loss ot at least twelve per cent.
Mr. Greeley says, what is almost every farmer’s
experience, that fences poison land and are only
shelters for weeds and btiar.-. We now see the
amount of fence rtquired lor each lot of land, aud
consequently the loss. Now, suppose fifty acres
is enclosed for pasturag •, it will be only one
fourth the expense ot the Ist—this would not be
included as all the land enclosed, up lo the fence,
could be pastured, aud the loss of laud would not
be more than two and one half acres. The fact
is, that one-fourth of every farm -r’ s land will fur
nish pasturage for his stcck.
If ttiis law was adopted, U3 I first said, no one
would regret it. If the amount of labor devoted
to repairing and building fences was diverted to
ditching the worn-out lulls des, cutting plues and
filling the gulleys.it would work a revolution in the
iuternal development of the county and be of such
incalculable Interest to these who are to follow
us, to say nothing ot the improvement oi 6tock,
etc , that none would ever regret nor any one con
sent to have the law otherwise.
True, in two years the law will expire by its own
limitation, but after its advantages are once seen
no one need apprehend any difficulty in it3 te
adopliou. No man should object to provide for
his own stock. No just man will require that his
neighbor should be burdened with stock In which
he has uo interest.
Now, sir, I am inclined to turn this subject over
to older and more experienced farmers and hope
that if your correspondent “ Bourgeois ” is not
satisfied someone will take charge of him and
show him that he is clamoring against the interest
of himself and friends. I hope the matter will be
freely discussed and that our farmers may con
clude to act in the matter at once.
Brantley’s District.
Colaparchee, Ga., April 26 th, 1873.
Mr. Editor: Anew move has been made in our
midst which is very much to the credit of our
people. It is . fact not generally known, perhaps,
that a hospital was established during tlie late
war, at the old Monroe Camp Ground, near this
place, where a number ot our noble dead lie bur
ied.
No care has been bestowed iu keeping up the
graves up to this time. They have been entirely
neglected. Recently, however, the burial ground
has been cleared of the accumulated rubbueh and
the graves neatly fixed up by a committee ap
pointed for that purpose.
To day a few of those who still hold sacred the
memory of the gallant dead, principal among
whom were ladies, —always first in such tributes
of respect—assembled at the cemetery, where
they listened to an appropriate addiess by their
orator of the day, Mr. 11. G. Lewis. After which
the neatly piled mounds were covered with the
first flowers of spring, scattered by the hands of
beauty and innocence. J.
SPECIAL NOTICES.
Medical Blunders.— From the period when
surgeons applied their salves to weapons instead
of wounds to the present wile awak t age, the
medical profession has o;ten imwitting’y taken
s’de wnh.Distase in its conflicts with .ue human
system. Even yet,,in spite of the teachings of
centuries of txje inure, some physicians believe
in depleting their patients, already seriously ex
hausted by sickness, with powerful evacuants,
emetics, salivants, csutharidal plasters, or the
lancet. But providentia ly, public intelligence is
ahead of these medical fossils, who belong, of
right, to the era of the Crusades ! That powerful
ally of nature in its warfare with the causes of
sickness, Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters, has opened
the eyes of the masses to the paramount impor
tance of increasing the vital strength of the body
when menaced by disease. They understand that
when the atmospheric conditions are averse to
health, it is wise to reinforce the system with a
wholsome tonic and stimulant, aud thus enable
it to combat and repel the depressing influence of
inclement temperature. If the constitutional and
animal powers were always ibus recruited in the
presence of danger, the mortality irom consump
tion, bronchitis, chronic theumatism, etc., would
be much less thau it now is. The causes which
produce croups, colds, quinsey, diptheria aud ca
tarrh, seldom affect a strong and vital system ; and
of all vitalizing preparations, Hostetter’s Bitters
has proved the most tflicient. It is not claimed
that tnis standard tonic is a specific for lung aud
throat maladies, as it is for dyspepsia, liver "com
plaint and intermittent#, but it is unhesitatingly
asserted that it is the best known saieguard
against all the atmospheric elements or disease.
Beyond the Mississippi.— Thousands have
already gone, and thousands more are turning
their eyes toward new homes in the
To those going to Missoni i, Kansas, Nebraska,
