Our attention has been frequently call ed. to the fact that in Quitman there is no system of regularity in regard to the weights and measueres used, either hy our merchants or those bringing articles for sale or tratio to town. It is very well known that t here is a statclaw in existence regulating weight and measurement, p>re scrihing the standard weights and meas ures to he used, and that it is a, criminal offense to deviate from the fixed standard of either ; l>ut I.ur people do not seem to underst-nd that there is quite a differ enc. between dry measure and liquid measure, and the weights and vess. Is and. signed for their discrimination. If they are aware of the difference, they do not appear to regard it. worthy of observance. The truth of ties statement can lie proven by the daily transactions in the stores and upon the streets. For instance, grapes, berries, f-wts and vegetables of C very description, which are sold hv measurement, are measured as liquid, tn quart or pint cups, when they propel iy belong to and should he weighed or measured as dry measure. Two quarts of ground-peas, measured in a pint or quart cup, will male' only about a quart and a half when put into dry measure, as they should he. Ju little matters of this kind it does not amount to much at a time, hut it counts up after a while upon hose fre quently purchasing the arti h s referred to, and in order to avoid such differences, we would rail the attention of our town authorities to themaster, and respectfully suggest that they give the subject their attention, and adopt the means practiced by all other well governed towns, by ap pointing an inspector, whose duty it shall he to go to every place of business and inspect the scales and measures used within the incorporate limits, once every month. While this system will wrong none, it will at the same time deal jus tice alike to all. The cost of this prac tice would he nothing to the town authori ties, and hut little to the dealer. Any well disposed business man, after taking the proper view of the matter, will he willing, yea gratified, to pay from ten to twenty-five cents i>er month (which will amply compensate the inspecting officer) to know that his weights and measures are correct, and that he is dealing with others as he is wishing to V dealt with, and that he is upon the safe > !■ of the law. Personally, we have hut little interest j in this matter, as the Banner is sold j neither by weight or measure, and the j most extensive purchases ever made hy us, which would be in any way affected hv this system, would he a pint of pea nuts, or, at this particular season, a quart of grapes; hut at the request of some of our business men who are more or less interested, and as a public jour nalist, we have thought it not amiss to throw out these few suggestions, without reference to any particular class of indi viduals more than another, and to call the attention of our Town Council to the matter. Sew Stock. We direct the attention of our readers to the advertisement of Mr. E. Ives, in to-day’s Banner, who has just made an addition to his stock of Confectioneries, Family Groceries, Toys, Notions, <fce., which he assures us he is determined to sell as low as they can be ymrehased else where. Mr. Ives is a practical Baker and Confectioner of experience, and those purchasing his goods will always get - pure and wholesome articles. Read his: i advertisement, and when you get hungry go to him and he can satiate the most ' -oprbid appetite. . Gainesville, and the Chickens and Eyys Thereof. We have received a private letter from a friend who is sojourning for a short while at Gainesville, Hall, Cos., Ga. We take the liberty of making an extract that our readers may have some idea'of the abundance of that region in fowl produc tions. He says : “During three months last year they shipped from this place’ forty-five thousand worth of chickens, and during the year, four mil lion dozen eggs.” We are afraid some of those up-eonntry boys have found out our friend was from the wire-grass, and have been greening him. When we told a friend of the statement, he commenced right away to make a calculation. Let’s see: §45,000 worth, at eight to the dollar, would he 360,000 chickens in three months; 120,000 in one month and about 4000 each day more chickensin Gaines ville in one day than we have seen in Quitman lo ! these several years. Then we went at the egg question : Four million dozen would be 48,000,000 eggs, at a cent a piece would he 8480,- 000 —money enough, a friend suggests, to buy the whole of Hall county —min eral Springs, chickens and eggs with the old roosters thrown in. And then this firiend says a man can’t count more than a million a month, if he does nothing else, so it would take one man four years to have counted those eggs; or if they i were counted in one year, it would require four men to do il -(wonder if our friend saw those four men at the Depot contiu ! ually counting eggs.) And then, how | many hens did it take to lay these eggs! hut the calculation grows tedious. We know our friend is a man of veracity, and j after all, we may he the parties “gulled," I and not he. But it is a hard tale to toll |to a Brooks county; man. Well, when j our friend returns, which we hope will he in a week or two, it he will fly up on | the Court House, flop his wings and j crow, we may conclude there is some : thing in his story. Honor to whom Honor is Due. While our name appears as principal editor of the Banner, it must not he for gotten that Mr. 11. M. Mclntosh is as sociate editor, and although on account of his lx-ing so much engaged in the printing department of the paper, the editorials devolve chiefly upon us, yet be finds time to furnish one or more pieces for almost every issue. Some of his edi torials are highly creditable, hut we no tice that our brethren of the press, as well as our friends at home, when spieak ; ing of them, invariably ascribe them to | us. Now, in some respects, it suits us ' admirably to have two editors, for if some | fierce fellow should accidentally take ! offence at something we had written, and i conclude to give us a thrashing, it would i be so easy to say that “Henry” is respon j sihle for that article, and you must settle I with him, and thus save our carcass, i (You see we are senior in command, and I therefore have aright to appoint him to I the fighting department.) But while we ; are willing to saddle all blame upon him, ; we are not disposed to appropriate all 1 lln- laurels he may he entitled to. IVr ; Imps it might do to sign our initials to our respective articles,but then thefight ing fellow might come along, and itmight not be. so easy to persuade him that B. stands for Mclntosh. We don’t know how to fix it, hut. remember there are two editors, and either of us are willing to say something smart [whenever the op portunity offers. " Si’. B. B. Removal. The attention of our readers is called to the advertisement of Messrs. Streoty & Averett, who have removed their Hard ware and Tinware store to a more conve nient. and spacious building, with a view to enlarging their business, and keeping a more extensive stock (if stoves and oth er goods in their line on hand, ihey have leased the store formerly occupied j hy Mr. M. C. Wade, and under the Ma sonic Hall, where they will he glad to see their friends. An Unmittiyated Scoundrel. i q u . fay ' ' - >m< hold thief, hv placing a ladder agairnt tie window of the stove room, of Dr. D' > s resi dence, succeeded in for ::, n * ntry and making away with some flour that he j found in convenient reach of him. He j doubtless intended to make a more ex tensive haul, but was frightened away by j one of the inmates of the house leaking J up on account of the noise, and going to see what was the matter. The vidian that would steal from such a man as Dr. Baker, ought to be severely punished, and that “without benefit of the clergy.” Alteration in Hoad, Haw. Office County Court, ) Quitman, Ga., August 29, 1873. j Mr. Editor : —ln publishing some few extracts from Irwin’s Revised Code, Laws of Georgia, upon the’ sub ject of the Road law, I omitted to notice theshange that the Act of 23d Augmst, 1872, made in the Par. 675 of the Code upon the subject of Railroad hands working the county roads, changing the amount to be paid per diem, from 32.50 to 81.00 p>er diem. Act of October 18, 1871, has also changed Par. 639 of the Code, and requires new roads to be Laid out 20 feet wide instead of 30 feet. Edward R. Harden, 36-lt J. C. C. B. C. Crt LABSWARE of all kinds at r I’AINE k HALL’ lalitor of the * Blackshear Georgian on Quitman. Below we give an extract from the Blackshear Georgian. If Col. Baker does not stop criticising the architecture of our flourishing town, we will get Ham, of the Eastman Times, to tell again how he asked permission of a young lady to gal lant her to church. This request, as set fort h hy Ham, exhibits a rare specimen of rhetorical architecture : QUITMAN. Quitman is strengthening her cords, extending her stakes and advancing on ward on a solid foundation in a prosper ous career. The court house is a massive but not a beautiful structure. The por ticoes are too lofty and do not harmo nize with the architecture of the main building. The defect might be remedied to some extent, hy putting a flat roof on the porticoes, with a baulstrade around. This arrangement would at least insure the roof and ceiling of the building against, damage from rain. The court house square is a pleasing park of four acres she:!.-1 with flourishing oaks. Un der the energetic and efficient manage ment of Judge Edward Harden, the able Judge of the county court, that, park will be an ornament to the town of Quitman. The factory building near the depot, is a | large three story edifice; well built, sur mounted with a graceful dome and ready under the able direction of Dr. H. Briggs, the President. The President courteous ly conducted ns through the different rooms and showed us the various process making the fabrics. The operatives seemed cheerful, and the complexions give evidence of good health Let more capital he added to the in vestment, and the return of profits would be more remunerative. In a small in vestment the ineideetal cost absorbs | much of the profits, hut make the capital j ample, and the rate of remuneration in creases in a, large ratio, for the cost is hut slightly increased hy the extension. Suf ficiency of capital is requisite to develop the manufacturing capacity of a factory, and make it pay a large per cent. The Augusta factory pays 200 per cent, and j why should not the Quitman factory pay JSO per cent ? Quitman has a fine loea- I t lon and its march is onward ; has two newspapers, the Banner, edited hy Col. \V. 1!. Bennett, and the Independent, hy Major Gallaher. The people apptear to give both papers generous aid, which speaks well for their enterprise and liber al spirit. It has two good hotels, the City Hotel and Mclntosh House. I think STMMONS’ LIVER REGU LATOR, one of the best medicines ever made for the liver. I have seen it used hy my wife and hy many others who were sick and afflicted, with wonderful ef fect.
