“ sharp look out,"
Messrs. Moblst & Cabamss. —We stepped
into the grocery room of the above firm on
Thursday, aud were astonished to see the amount
of business they were doing. We counted twelve
wagons iu front of their house, aud upon inquiry
fouud that Jones, Jasper and Butts couuties were

reased the town’s “purse” to thirty-five dollars

f-a-A s iv s.—We were made the recipient, on
Friday last, of an ornithological specimen of the
feathered tribe, which we iuferred was a jay bird.
It bad not been in this community loug enough
to reveal it species, but it took very few uinuu-s
lor us to prouoauee it *• the most annoying among
ten thousand and the one altogether Doisy." The
fair douor’s name deserves to be embalmed in the

the popular superstition, that a jay bird was never
seen on Friday. We return our unieigned thanks,
and thiuk the most appropriate way to show our
appreciation is to give an oiusr.
The* Citizen* in Counsel.
On last Wednesday a large m m er ..f the enter
prising businessmen ol Forsyth met in Pyc’s nail
when, upon motion, Mr. B. Pye was called to the
chair and Capt. S. D. Mobley requested to set as
secretary. Maj J. K. Banks said in substance tnat
the meeting had been called for the purpose of
tkkieg into consideration the interests of the far
mers of the county at> 1 of Forsyth, and if possible
to devise means for placing the different roads
leading to Forsyth in a condition that would in
vite custom, and that would relieve those who
patronize the town from the great hardships caused
by the roads, which are almost impassible. He
advised that such joint action be taken in the
premises, with the County Commissioners and
people generally, as would secure the early work
ing of the roads, and the construction of such
bridges as are necessary for the accommodation of
citizens of the connty. The question of roads had
been agitated in almost all the progressive conn •
ties in the State, and indeed it had become so im
poitant as to demand legislation in many. He
regretted to see Monroe, the banner county of the
State, so far behind in this most important move
ment. There were many of our fellow citizens
who preferred to trade in and patronize their own
county town, bnt were absolutely prohibited from
doing so on account of the miserable condition of
tho public highways.
The following Committees were appointed to
act, in concert with the Commissioners, to have
the public roads placed in good travelling condi
tion : B. M. Hathorn, 8. D. Mobley, Jno. A.
Danielly and J. R. Banks, on the Culloden, Rus
sellville, and other roads in that portion of the
county ; D. S. Redding, W. A. Pye, G. A. Caba
niss and Jag. M. Ponder, on the High Falls, Indian
SpriDg, and other roads; D. G. Alien, J. Monroe*
Ponder, W. 11. Head and A. \V. Bramblett, on the
Gullettsville and other roads; W. J. Dumas, F.
O. Mays, Monroe Clower and B. M. Hathorn, on
the Ho’ly Grove and other roads in that direction.
The complaints from all portions of the count#
have induced the citizens of Forsyth to take this
important action, and they hope, by the united
and co-operative action of the people aud the
county authorities, to inaugurate such a condition
of affairs as will insure to the material wants of
the farmers and, consequently, benefit Forsyth.
We are rejoiced at the movement and hope by
eaily fall that the roads at:d bridges will be placed
in such condition as will make it pleasant and
profitable lor our good citizens to visit Forsyth.
The Stock Law.—As the Ordinary, in the dis
cnarge of his legal duties has ordered an elec
tion to be held on the first Monday in July,
on the adoption of the stock law, and as many of
our readers probably have not had an opportunity
of examining the law, we give the last section of
the act which bLows the manner ol its adop
tion:
Whenever so many as fifty freeholders in any
county of this State shall petition the Ordinary of
taid county for the benefit of the provisions of
this act, said Ordinary shall at once make known
throughout said county, by advertisement in the
public gazette, if theie is one published in said
county, and by notices at all election precincts
and public places therein, that such petition has
been tiled in his office, snen notice to be published
twenty days. It a counter-petition of freeholders
is tiled, amountii g to fitly persons, then the Or
dinary shall proceed no further. It such petition of
freeholders is not met by such counter-petition, or
if met by such counter petition, is supported by a
petition ot so many as twenty-five additional free
holders, then the Ordinary aforesaid shall at once
proceed to have an eltction held in such ccumy,
on the first Monday in July following, in which
the question shall be submitted to Ihe lawlul vo
ters of said county, of “fence or no fence;” said
election to be held at the places and under the
same rules aud regulations as are provided for
members of the General Assembly, and after thir
ty duyn’ notice at the most public places in said
couniy. The returns of said election shall he
made to the Ordinary of said county, aud, after
examining the same, add dec ding upon all ques
tions wl ich uiuy arise out of said election, be shall
proclaim the result by notice as aloresaid. If the
lawlul majority iu said election is for “ no fence,”
then the provisions of this act shall take effect iu
such connty within six mouths thereafter: Pro
vided, fcuid elections shull not be held oftener than
oue time in every two years.
We understand those who vote “ no fence’’ vote
for the adoption oi the law ; those voting “ fence”
vote against the adoption of the law.
Two Ancients.—On last Wednesday Mr. Green
English, who is seventy-eight years old and has
resided in the county for fifty-two years, and Mr.
Jas. Norris, seveuty nine years of age aud a resi
dent of the county for fifty-one ye ars, met iu this
otliee. Mr. English is from the extreme northern
part of the county, and Mr. Norris from the
southern ; both were in the war of 1812, aud were
iu town for the purpose of drawing their pen
sions. It was interesting as well as amusing to
bear these gentlemen compare the present with
the slow past. Upon the question ol “no fenee”
they thick, it adopted, the results will be more
disastrous than anything that has ever happened,
except Secession; aud they raise their voice against
changing the “ old way” of doing things generally.
The one, Mr. English, is the great oracle oi his
neighborhood, whom many consult, and the other
con'd doubtless be traced in adiiectline to Black
stone, having been a Justice of the Peace “time
whereof the memory of man runneth not to the
coultary.” They are honest, true men of the old
type, and we wish them many years of usefulness
and happiness.
“ Pain-Killer.”—There can be no necessity, at
this late day, for the Press to speak in commen
datory terms of this remarkable medicine, in
order to promote its sale; for it is a medicine
that is known and appreciated the wide world
through. Whenever we speak of the Pain-
Killer, as in the present instance, we do so Id
behalf of the aflltcted, rather than with the view
of advancing the interests of its proprietors. For
various diseases, such as rheumatism, cholera,
cholera-morbus, bums, sprains, bruises, and so
on to the end of the catalogue, we are convinced
that there is uo remedy before the people equal
to Davis’Vegetable “ Pain-Killer,” aud we know
that thousands upon thousands entertain the
same belief. Certainly, we cannot refer to the
history of any medicine which equals that of the
Paiu-Kilier. It was intioduced in IS4O, and from
that time to this its sale, both at heme and
abroad, has constantly and rapidly increased, and
we rejoice at the high reputation it has achieved,
because this reputation shows that it has been
the means of relieving a vast amount of human
suffering. We hope the present proprietors cf
Davis’ Vegetable “Pain Killer” will long live to
eujoy the prosperity they have so fairly won.
Gboi.gia State Fair —We have received a
catalogue containing a full liot of the premiums
aud instructions ior the Fair, which will be held
at the Central City Park, in the city of Macon, on
the :.7th day oi Oetobtr. The list of premiums
amounts to the handsome sum of fifteen thou
sand dollars, and is unusually comprehensive in
its details.
There is two notable and commendable features
which appear iu the cataiogge, that wi)l doubtless
add 1 ;rgelj to t'ge success ot the Fair: There will
he no entry fees charged ; almost all the premiums
are payable in money. It is probably one of the
most costly schedules of premiums ever offered in
Georgia. The City Park is generally conceded to
be one o! the most attractive aud romantic pieces
in the South, and its adaptation to the use pro
posed is surpassed by tone in the world. The
Fair will be held uuder the general ausp’ces of
the State Agricultural Society, but the titv of
Macon will have direct control. It is enough to
kn >* that Mayor Huff will be at the helm.
L. F. Greer £ Co.—We ta<r attention fo the
new advertisement of this firm. They piopose to
sell fresh and pure drugs very cheap, it you don’t
believe it call aud see for yourselves.

Correspondence.
Editor Advertiser, or the Voters of Monroe County :
—I wonld most solemnly invoke you to look well
to your interest, and know when the Fc-Lce law
goes into t fleet, and what will be the results to
you. Without feeling any die ret or personal
interest in the question, pro or con, yet I do not
think that you are prepared for tbe change at this
juncture.
M ho can conltol their hogs, cows, &c., at this
time without serious inconvenience? Who
amongst you, art willing to assume the burden of
controliiag stock, that may be abandoned two
years hence! It is too much like the man, who
depends on the market for his meat; if no ceun
tryman should bring beet or poik, then he goes
without meat, so it would be with the man who
fences in his slock, if two years hence the people
should say away with your odious laws, we want
no such advantages as those iurnished by the
fence law.
But the law might work nice if the people
were prepared for it—say it shall go into eflect
the Ist ol next January, and everybody work to
that end, and when once ad* p ted continue it in
definitely. Some arc ready to say that this will
be abridging the privileges of the poor, but not
so; for pray whose laud dees their stock graze
upon now ? Would it not cost less labor and
timber to leuce your pasture, than to fence all
your crop. It is a fact known to all, that one
fourth of the fencing would euclose the pastures,
that is necessary to secure the farm.
If the negro who now doe* nearly all the repair
ing of the farm, should fence the pasture, he
would unquestionably have as much claim then
as now, and would it not be an incentive to him
to expect that his labor in fencing should se
cure the benefit of a pasture for his stock? I
would like to hear from Brantley’s District, Kel
sey’s, and any and all others that are in favor of
the law, to say when they propose for the law to
take effect. Certainly it should not before the Ist
of January, 1874. It wonld not be doing justice
to those who have crops planted for it to take ef
fect earlier. More anon. An Enquirer.
Editor Advertiser: In your paper of the 3d
inst., appeared a communication signed “ Pro
gress.” On many points in the communication,
no doubt every true man in Ihe couuty feels as
he does, proud of the improvements and growth
of Forsyth ; it is natural they should thus ietl,
for with many it is their native home, others
have cast the ir lot with us by adoption, that ex
pect to live and die with us; hence it is to the
interest of all in the county, and many irom the
surrounding country, who bring their cotton to
Forsyth, to see her prosper and able to compete in
a commercial view with her sister markets. lain
prepared to say, everything considered, she does
and will compete suceesslully with other mar
kets. I am no cotton buyer but a cotton seller,
aud from five years experience, will say that it is
a better market to sell cotton in than Macon or
Savannah (having tried all three.) I sec no rea
son why Forsyth should not keep pace, and con
tinue to grow as we'l as other railroad towus.
With a healthy and prosperous agricultural interest
in the surrounding country 6he certainly will not
go down, but should go forward.
If Progress intended to make any point from
auv part of hi* communication, or to raise a dis
cussion through the Advertiser, he may be ac
commodated by signing his name in full.
Observer.
Mt. Editor: Agreeable to promise, I furnish you
below with the “ dots” of the fishing party to the
not very famous Dead river.
On Monday last, at half past four o’clock, Win.
Johnston chief engineer, G. A. Cahaniss as
cook, W. B. Chambers as principal fisherman,
Zack Fryar as pilot, C. A. Turner as fireman,
John Mays physician, aud last but not least, J. D.
Clower quartermaster, left Forsyth in a buggy and
two-horse wagon, with several hundred trot lines,
peek of bait, meat and bread sufficient to last a
week, two dozen lemons, fifty pounds of ice, oue
galloujug, aud two bottles of “ vinegar bitters”
—for snake bites only—(we brought tbe jug and
bottles back). We arrived at Russellville at seven
o’clock, P. m., took some bitters, eat supper, and
those of us who rode in the wagon proceeded to
patch the seats of our pants (the wagon was with
out springs). No snake interfered with us the
first night as we slept in the front porch of Mr.
Joseph Brown’s (not the Ex-Governor) store,
which gentleman, as well as his gentlemanly clerk,
Mr. Hanes, nlso Dr. Montgomery and Mrs. Ballad,
we must beg through your columns to thank (or
their courtesy during our 6tay there both going
aud returning.
Next morning, awhile before day, we were
aroused aud somewhat frightened at the
groans of one of our party, seemingly n great
distress. On inquiring w.e found that our quar
termaster had indulged at supper most too lreely
in ten hard boiled eggs. At the suggestion of our
physician, however, a drink of vinegar bitters soon
relieved the sufferer (he took the bitters very
reluctantly). At half past three we were all up
—our fireman treating chips, cook cooking, chief
engineer greasing his machine, assisted by the
principal fisherman, quartermaster soliloquizing
on how many hard beeiled eggs a man ought to eat
for supper, our pilot touting water, and physician
lecturing quartermaster on tbe successes of the
medical profession. He concluded his lecture by
stating that a drink of bitters might do him good
before breakfast. All the crowd thought 'lie same
thing and acted on his suggestion.
Leaving Russellville at half past four o’clock, we
sped on at the rate of three miles per hour for
KNOXVILLE,
a pleasant little village of about three hundred in
habitants. Here we found anew jail had just been
built, mostly for the protection of “river wa
citizens against the intrusions of straggling fisher
men who too frequently indulge iu the flowing
ter.” (We eat dinner here without bitters.) We
must offer at this place our most siuccre thanks
to Dr. Ogletrce for his kindness. It is to him we
are indebted for keeping out ol “ the wet” during
the hard rain on our return. Stopping here a
few hours we again moved off for
flint river,
which we found considerably swelled, from the
heavy rains that had lately fallen. A shrill
whLtle from our engineer soon brought the ferry
man (a very black man) to the opposite bank, who
soon pulled us over. On inquiry from the chief
fisherman as to how far it was to Dead river, he
replied: “I’se be’-be’-becn, be’-be’-beeu livin’
here fer tw’-tw’-twenty years, and I ne’-oe’-neffi
er heard of no si’-si’-sich riber qa dat yp-yi’-y it."
At which piece of intelligence our hearts sunk
(uot iu the river) aud were only made to float
again in “vinegar bi’ters.” Handing this zvth
seventy five cents, we bade him good-bye not
however, until our pilot tied borrowed his fishing
pole, (without the owner’s consent),
Moving onward about two mi'es, we rolled up at
Mr. £sol. LopketCs, a very affable gentleman, and
probably one of the wealthiest in the State. He
kindly consented to show us the way to Dead
river which lay qq his plantation. This pianta
tion contains four or five thousand acres, mostly
iu rich cotton land, aud is as level as a floor. He
has about one thousand acres planted in cotton
that will make a bale to the acre. lie farms wiih
a great deal ot system, not allowing more than
three hands lo work at one place. On beinu- in
terrogated as to why he kept his hands so scal
tered, he iuformed us that they worked better
that they would stop aud talk too much when in
a crowd. Besides, tiny did not know a; what
time of day he would app-.ar, and were thus keol
constantly at work list he should fiud them idle.
But 1 must hurry on to our destination.
vV’e reached Dead riy*r about sir Tues
day evening. may be curious to know why
it hears that name. It appears that formerly tue
main river ran where Dead riyer now lies but by
some means the river changed its course, leaving
a p.ape of about a fiiile or and a hail iu
leUiCih, Vjith no visible outlet or iniet. Some.
hoWevfer, Suppose this is now a running stream
ted by innumerable springs, aud that the water
passes under grouud iuto the main river.
I must here rnenUou something ol a enriositv
in the shape of an J
India* oyND,
possibly the camping ground of some ol “ Captain
Jacks Modoc*’” ancestors. The country all
around, as far as the eye can teach, is perfectly
level, and is cans antly ovei flowed at the rise oi
the river. About a hundred yards from ib r j V er
this mouqd Is thrown tip some fifty or sixty teet
composing a perfect circle, and containing an top
about hall au aete. Here can be found Indian
spikes, their rude putter ware, etc. Fifty yards
from this mound, there is a hole the earth deep
as the mound h high, and containing about aa
moch in area. It is supposed that the dirt wa* dug
from this ho'e to raise the- mound. Oj r* achu g
our
CAME,
with high expectation* ot a fish supper, while our
engineer, quartermaster, etc., unloaded the wag
op, our clue' fisherman, who bad uiready baited
his hook, set out for the river with a hall hu.ut l
basket, to pu* the fisb iu. Oue cook sad fireman i
too were Busily engaged, making pre-param*u to
cook the fish. Alter waiting for t-ome time alter
dark, we despatched the eUrctor with a bottle ol
bitter*, alter the fisherman, fearing greatly that
he bad been sn*ke bit. They soon returned, com- j
plaining greatly ot their heads swimming (tnustd,
they said, from looking into the water after dark,)
and no tLh. Atter despatching a few cold bis
cuits and fried fish (I mean ham), we retired to
fight mosquitoes and dread snakes.
Truly, all night long there was “fighting without 1
end fears within.” We must commend here the j
boidiieas and caution of our quartermaster, who,
as often as touched by his bad fellow, moving
his hand or foot, immediately cried out “snr.kes.”
Next morning at daybreak our fisherman was ‘
off again to his hooks, determined to eat fish for
brcakiast. He returned in about an hoar w'ith no ,
fish, and a conclusion that this wasn’t the place.
Atter breakfast we were much distressed as to
where “ the place teas.” When to our relief a cop
per-colored negro, about bait indian—we shall
call him our man Friday—emerged from the
bushes aud offered “ to show us where we could
kotch lots ot fish.” In gratitude we offered him
our purses, and tol.d him he should have “syrup”
for breakfast. Alter taking the “syrup” (with
out bread) we gave him a hook and he started for
“silver lake,”
the engineer, fisherman and fireman following.
We continued to follow about two hours through
swamps, mud, etc., when we reached “Itaska’s”
clear waters, and were informed by Friday “ dat
dis was dc place.” We found it “de place” but
the fish were wanting. Our engineer was so much
disgusted and enraged that he quietly informed
Friday if he did not do better he would chop him
up and make bait out ot him. The poor negro,
hall dead with lright, told him, “Jes go wid me
ober to de big creek, and den we kotch ’em.” We
went with him about another halt mile, aud uid
“Kotch ’em'’—one cat-fish, three or four iuches
long, and three little perch as wide as three lin
gers. Disgusted, we returned to our camp deter
mined to try seining. But alter hearing several
alligator
stories lrom Friday, our chief fisherman conclu
ded it would do no good to seine—that the lake
was too full of snags.
On the second evening after our arrival at Dead
river, about four oelock, we were somewhat
alarmed at the report ot a pistol, firing four shots
in succession. Hastening toward the spot, we
met our quartermaster, almost oat of breath, who
told us in broken accents that he had been firing
at an alligator fifteen feet long. After much ear
nest entreaty, we persuaded him to go back and
and show us the monster, which we found on a
rail near the river, in the shape of a large rusty
lizard—“only this and nothing more." Capturing
said “alligator,” aud fastening him on a trot line,
we returned to camp.
Alter eating supper and spending another night
in dread of snakes, we left for home of course,
with a determination to return when the water
was not so muddy.
Some may ask why we selected this place to go
in preference to any other. The following
STORY
may explain it: Several years ago there was an
old gentleman, a strict member of the Church,
who went to Dead river fishing, aud after an ab
sence of three days returned and told his neigh
bors he had caught a string of fish three miles
long aud three Itei high. Of course the neighbors
a I'Ule doubted the story. Iu a short while he
was taken sick, and the members oi the Church,
naturally feeling great interest in their brother,
and not wishing him to go into eternity without
recalling his fish story, called on him, and with
great anxiety asked if “he would not roll a lew
of the fish off.” His reply was, “ Well, brethren,
if it will do you any good, I will take oil one mile;
but I will die beiure i will take c: 11' another.”
With such stories as this, from such a man, we
ask if it was not natural that we should go to
Dead river fishing V Yours truly, Jim Fish.
An exchange thus graphically describes ihe con
dition of an old man and bis family, who was al
ways too poor to take a paper:
His hogs don’t know enough to grunt when
they are hungry; his dog jumped into the river
and was drowned because he d.d’nt know enough
to swim out; and only last week his horse got
out of the barn, and went to a sawmill close by,
and mistaking the sawdust for bran, ate two bush
els aud turned into a hemlock log. The wi'e
wandered several miles away from home, four
years ago, and was scared to death by a railway
traiu ; his only daughter stabbed herself eo the
heart with an old fashioued candle-rod ; aud now
his youngest aud only sou has choked himself to
death trying to swallow a sm.e’l pumpkin. This
is an example ot wliat the world would? be with
out the educational inilueuee of the press.
On the subject ot fuuuy marriages, the Reg
istrar-General of Great Britain gives the yearly
record of those given in marriage in that realm.
Among the ardent grooms were no less than elev
en lads of over eighty years. One of them m rr
ried a maideu of 82 summers (winters included,)
while the others were content with children ot
thirty to thirty-five. One youth of 65 took,
“ for better or worse,” a lass”of fifteen.
SPECIAL NOTICES.
Medicinal Poisons on the Wane.—The pa
triarchs took no mercury, no bismuth, no iodine,
no bromide of potassium, no stryehoria, no qui
nine. Happy old gentlemen ! they did uot even
know of the existence of these “specifics,” aud
aud yet they lived as if Death had forgotten them.
Their medicines were herbs and roots. They have
left this tact on record, and the world seems to be
now taking note of it and returning to the first
principles of medication. Hostetler’s Stomach
Bitters, the purest aud most efficacious vegetable
restorative of the day, is also the most popular.
Thousands of persons who only a few years ago
believed implicitly in all the poisons which figure
in the pharmaccepia, now pronounce this palata
table tonic and alterative an all-sufficient lemedy
for dyspepsia, nervous debility, constipation, bil
ious complaints, headache, intermittent fevers,
and all the ordinary disturbances ol the stomach,
the liver, the discharging organs and the brain.
The time is not far distant when most of the pow
erlul and venomous drugs now so recklessly admin
istered by practitioners of the “ heioie” school, in
cases that might easily be controlled bv milder
treatment, wi.l be utterly discarded by all philo
sophical physicians. As it is, the thinking pub
lie, who are generally ahead ot the professionals,
have already put the dangerous preparation aside
ana adopted Hostester’s Billers in their stead as
a safe aud excellent household medicine, adapted
l ° a j OS j, eve T ailment except the organic and
aoa deadly contagious diseases. For more than
twenty years this lamous restorative and prevent
ive has been annually stiengthening its hold upon
the public confidence, and it now takes the lead
0 every advertised medicine manufactured in this
country.
