The Herald lor 1872.
VY itli this issue, the Herald en
ters upon its second volume. Like
all newspaper enterprises, it was
started as an experiment to ascer
tain whether the people of Gwin
nett and the adjoining counties
were willing to support a local
paper, devoted to the interests and
developing the resources of this
section of the State. We have no
reason to complain of the enconr
agement given the paper since our
connection with it in July, 1871,
still we think that in a county wit* l
two thousand voters we ought tu
have one thousand subscribers,
besides our circulation in the ad
joining counties. Our list has in
creased largely since we took
charge of the paper, for which we
return our thanks to the friends
who have interested themselves in
our behalf; and now with our in
creased mail facilities, and in view
of the fact that we are about en
tering upon a great Presidential
campaign, in which the issues pre
sented will be as vital, especially
to the Southern people, as were
ever determined at the ballot box,
we expect the Herald to continue
extending its circulation and in
fluence.
The people of the county ought
to give their county paper a libe
ral support —we labor for your
interest; we bring prominently
before the public the inducements
held out for immigration ; wc en
courage every public enterprise
which tends to build you up; we
offer you through our columns a
means of communicating with the
world, and of discussing all mat
ters of general and local interest;
we bring money from a distance
and circulate it here in your midst
—in fact newspaper men labor
more for the public than any other
class of men, because in laboring
for the public they benefit them
selves.
We expect, wheu the contracts
made with the former proprietor
for adveitising, which we were
bound to carry cut, expires, to fur
nish more reading matter than we
have been able to do heretofore,
and to enable us to do this, we
hope our readers will assist us in
increasing the circulation so that
we will not have to depend so
much for support upon advertising.
We have not heretofore devoted
much space to the discussion of
polities, because there has been no
issue before the country which
demanded it. There were other
interests which more immediately
affected the prosperity of the coun
try, and to them we expect to con
tinue to give preference. We will
not, however, he neutral in the
great political contest, which is
even now beginning to agitate the
country. We will not labor to
build up or pull down particular
men—we trust that qur aim rises
far above that—but we will labor
to secure measures which may
leave their impress for half a cen
tury.
The interesting series of bio
graphical sketches will be contui'
ucd on indefinitely, and we Lave
in addition to this, the promise of
interesting correspondence from a
number of gentlemen.
Our thanks are due to the offi
cers of Forsyth county for selec
ting our paper as the official organ
of that county; and to many
friends over there for assisting us
in extending our circulation.
And now in the beginning of the
second year we make a respectful
bow to our readers, and hope the
Hekai.d will find a hearty welcome
in the family of each subscriber.

For the Gwinnett Herald.
Mu. Editor: Within the last
few days I have been on the rami'
page in the counties of DcKalb,
Cobb, Milton and Forsyth.
I was raised in the backwoods,
and never traveled much in “lor
lit) parts,” and never saw the “ele
phant” until somewhat advanced
in life; and this is the reason pro
bably, why, what some would call
small things, make an impression
on me.
1 found things moving on gen
erally in the above named coun
ties, about as 1 have been used to,
in the narrow, and unpretending
precincts where 1 was brought
up, except about the railroads.—
There 1 found everything, and
everybody astir and in a hurry.
There the people walk fast, eat
fast, drink fast, sleep fast; and, 1
reckon, do everything fast!
I saw some curious sights on
these railroads—curious to mo
very curious!
'The men wear cm ions coats—
somewhat like the old times round
a-bout; except that in the rear
they have little skirts or flaps
about four inches long, and reach
ing about half way from the waist
to the posterior, with buttons as
big as a silver dollar! They are
thoquerest coats that ever 1 saw,
and 1 didn’t admire them much,
but suppose they are the lashion
on the railroads.
The ladies seem to be different
from any I had ever seen. Not
only different in dress, but differ
ent in form and shape. They arc
not straight and erect like the
buxom country lasses I use to
know, and used to love when 1
was young; but seem to bend
forward, with something like a
hump on the hack which they try
to conceal by an extra skirt of the
dress, shorter than the main one,
and tied up on the hack by a wide
ribbon, or a band of the same
material.
I was much grieved at their
misfortunes and deformities, and
have meditated, and meditated, to
know what could tie the cause, and
I am unable to solve the problem.
I saw many pretty women, if it
had ftot been that they are so out
of shape. And then such heads
of hair! enough to (ill two ham
per baskets! Can you tell me,
Mr. Editor, why they are so
humped-backed, and why they
have so much hair V Do tell me,
if you can 1
Paul, or Peter, or Milton, the
blind man, or Solomon, or some
body, has said that women’s hair
is their glory ! Well, then, these
women have a large amount of
glory !
In one of the little towns we
visited, we found the people all
agog on the subject of temper
ance, and the women, especially,
seemed to have “Good Templar”
on the brain.
God bless the women ; for they
are the stars of creation—images
of love, and a joy' forever ! God
bless the women, especially the
“rosy girls !” When the world
was made, it is said, “All nature
was a wild, and man, the hermit,
sight'd, till woman smiled.” Any
man who does not love them, 1
would not wish to number him on
my list of (riemls.
They are always engaged in
some good work, (except when
they are reviling some frail sister,
or when indulging in some unlady
like gossip), and in heaven they
will be rewarded for their good
deeds.
In this village, they have a lodge
of “Good Templars,” and they
hold their meetings every other
Saturday night. It is made up of
gentlemen and ladies, too —old
men, middle-aged, and young men ;
ladies—mostly of the rosy type,
and some who are less rosy.
It is a noble institution from
what I have heard and under
stand of its objects, and long
may it live to disseminate its
principles. That it has done good
in restraining the appetite for alco
hol, and in keeping men from the
bowl, theie is no question. If it
only reforms a drunkard for a
month, it is that much good to
him, and that much good in giving
peace and quiet to his family for
that brief period. If it keeps a
man sober for life, it is a good that
angels will look oil and bless.
1 know nothing of the internal
workings—ceremonies at;d ritual
of the order. They have a “head
man,” I understand, who sits up in
a dignified seat, with an elevation
of five feet or less, with a Venus
on one side and a Diana on the
other, as his right and left hand
supporters; with a lady faeiug
him as YV. V. T., and a lady as
I). M., and a lady as A. 8., and a
lady as inside G. t and many other
ladies surrounding his “August
l’edestri*!.”
Now, Mr. Editor, isn’t this a
beautiful, beautiful idea? This
peculiar organization, and espe
chilly the surrounding circumstances!
Get up a Lodge in your town ;
and if you do, I give notice now
in advance that I shall be a candi
date for YV. C. I'., if I may be al
lowed to select my right and left
hand supporters !
At the close of their last meeting,
two weeks ago, they had a scene,
that I will give tu you as “’twas
told to me.” Near the hour of
“low twelve” their lodge was clos
ed, and the night was dark as
Erebus, and the rain falling thick
i and fast, as they dispersed to go
to their respective places of abode
! “under difficulties.” 1 lie streets
were full of mud and water, and
the ditches on the sidewalks over
flowing. Mrs T. having beendis
engaged, fur the moment, from her
husband's arm, fell into the ditch,
to the great damage of her new
dress, balmoral and other crinoline,
which has been in the soaking-tub
ever since ! Mrs. D. had the same
misfortune, and her husband, more
gallant than the other, involunta
rily plunged in after her. Mr. \V.
was heard attempting to strike a
match in the rain, to re-light his
candle, which the rain had put
out, and his wife fell into the
ditch, too.
Mr. A., with three huge Note
Hooks under his arm and the skirt
of his coat —the “Carma Sacra,”
the “Silver Song,” and the “Tem
perance Bugle Note”—becoming
somewhat alarmed at the rapid
approach of a buggy, and in try
ing to get, out of its way, lost his
hooks, which, trying to find again
hut couldn’t, when the W. G. T.
came to his relief by stumbling
over them, greatly to the relief of
Mr. A. The whole crowd was in an
uproar, and “confusion, worse con
founded,” reigned supreme; when
a jolly “Good Templar” to enliven
the scene exclaimed at the top of
his voice :
“I hope to see you all some day
marching up to the polls in solid
phalanx to vote for the man whose
forefather was horn in the ashen ol
poverty, lifted up by Hi a pot-hooks
of prosperity, and took an ever
lasting whack at eternity, and left
this world with a hooppee /”
Then in a solemn refrain, he
sang out:
Oh ! whisky is a very good thing,
Can be bought in any little town ;
But when you drink too much,
It flies right to your crown !
Let scandal hold her tongue,
And trivial cares avaunt;
Then go it while you're young,
When you get old you can’t!
But in all seriousness and cin
cerity we say: Success to the
Good Templars of K.—and all
others, and wherever the banner
may float! May it prove" to be no
mushroom upslioot to spring up
in a day ami die as so<m. But
may its good principles he dissem
inated until dram-dr'inking ami its
evil consequences may have no
habitation or a name in our bright
and beautiful land.

M aeon and Knoxville Rail
road.
From the notice publised in the
Atlanta papers of a meeting of the
corporators of the Macon ami Knox
ville railroad campany—charteied
Dec., 11, I S7 I which is to take
place at Covington, Newton county,
on the 27th inst., we judge that
something is to be really clone
toward the construction of this road.
The rumor is that the opening of a
new route from Macon to Atlanta,
via Covington and the Georgia rail
road, is a fixed fact; and it is asserted,
with equal postivenesa, that the road
will certainly be constructed from
Covington, towards Knoxville via
Lawrenceviile, Gwinnett county.
Enough has been ascertained of the
route through North Georgia to
show very favorable topographical
conditions under which to prosecute
this work, and those who have it in
hand are represented as abundantly
able to carry it through. As told
to us, the purposed route will run
over the Macon and Augusta track
to a point twelve miles from this city,
whence it will diverge and reach
Covington with only fifty two
miles of road to build. At
Covington it will he within thirty
nine miles of Atlanta, thus making
the distance from Macon to Atlanta
one hundred and three miles—exact
ly the same as by the Macon and
YY r estern road.
YYliat Macon most needs, though,
is the through route to Cincinnati
and the \Y r est via Knoxville. The
building of the Cincinnati road
through Kentucky and having its
termins at Knoxville is now assured,
and it must have an outlet to the sea.
The construction of the Macon and
Lnoxviile road will give the YY'est
choice between Charleston, Savannah
and Brunswick as that outlet, and
will put Mieon, especially, on a van
tage ground she cannot hope to
occupy by any other arrangement.
YY’e hope at an early day to announce
that these ondits have crystal ized
into facts— Telegraph ft Messenger.

The Outlaws.— By parties from
Robeson county who arrived in
this city vest Malay we arc inform
ed that Boss Strong, one of the
notorious Lowery gang of outlaws,
has been killed. The facts a* they
are detailed to us, and they aie
rather meagre at the most, are as
follows: A young man by tlie name ;
of James McQueen alias Donahue,
wlio resides at Slice Ilcel, or in
the vicinity, went to the house of
Boss Strong on Friday night—at |
what hour is not stated. Ap
proaching the house, to prevent
any one from seeing him, he let
himself dow n and crawled to the
front steps, when he placed his
eyes at a “cat hole” and saw Boss
Strong and his brother, Andrew
Strong, in the room, the former
playing on some musical instru
ment. Adjusting his gun, lie took
deliberate aim at Boss Strong and
fired, shooting the noted outlaw in
the head and killing him instantly.
As soon as he had noted the result
of’ the discharge, McQueen, or
Donuhoe, made haste to Shoe Heel
for reinforcements for the purpose
of securing the body of the out
law, lie procured the necessary
force and returned to the scene of
the tragedy, but as to the result of
expedition we are not informed.
These are the facts as we have
them from our informants, who
obtained their information at Slme
llecl, and who seem to have little
or no doubt of the conectness of
the news.
Boss Strong is, or was, a broth
er-in-law of Henry Berry Lowery,
the leader of the gang, and the
most trusted and during of his
followers. We await with inter
est the receipt of further intelli*
gonce from the “seat of war,” and
a confirmation of that already re
ceived.— Wilmington Star ,

The nomination of Judge Davis
and Governor Parker, by the Na
tional Labor Convention of Co
lumbus, Ohio, on the 22nd of Feb
ruary, for a Presidential ticket,
has stirred much excitement.
Judge Davis is a moderate Re
publican. lie is a Marylander by'
birth, and fifty-seven years old.
lie was a conservative Henry Clay
YY’big lie settled in Illinois, was
a State Legislator in 1844, dele
gate to State Constutioual Conven
tion in 1847, District Judge in
1848, 1855, and 1861.
In 1860 he was a delegate to the
Chicago Convention, and aided in
securing Lincoln’s nomination. In
ISO 2, Lincoln appointed Judge Da
vis Associate Judge of the Su
preme Court of the Ui.ited States,
which office he now holds He
was executor of Mr. Lincoln’s will.
Judge Davis is rich, of tine per
sonal character, and a very good
Judge. 11 is decision holding the
legal tender act constitutional did
not engratiale him with the Democ
racy. He has been very Conserv
ative in his Republicanism.
Joel Parker, the Democratic
Governor of New Jersey, is the
candidate for Vice-Presidency, and
has been favorably spoken of as a
good Presidential nominee fur the
Democracy.
The nomination ofthese two gen
tler,! -n by the Labor party is said
to hu ’e bee the result of a combi
nation between some of the most
adroit politicians of the country.
It has created quite an alarm in
the Grant taction. If the Liberal
Union Convention of moderate
Republicans at Cincinnati in May
shall adopt this nomination the
aspect will become- serious 'to
Grant.— Constitution.
The question has often been asked
by those interested, “Can I have my
gray hair restored to its natural color,
without coloring the skin ? and
can my thin loeks be thickened up?”
YY r e answer, “It can;” and would
advise you to read a treatise on the
hair, which is published by R. P.
llall & Co., Nashua, N. H., who send
it free, upon application. They are
the proprietors of Hall’s Y'egetable
Sicilian Hair Renewer. YVe learn
from it, the hair, in -i perfect state
of health, is constantly falling out,
and new hairs grow from the same
tubes; but, in case of any disease of the
scalp, or by the use of alcoholic pre
parations, the hair-tube becomes con
tracted at its mouth, and prevents
the new follicle from reaching the
surface. Their prepaiation will create
a perfectly heathly condition of the
scalp, and, by its tonic properties,
will preserve and strengthen the
roots of the hair.— Statesman , Res
