THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 15, 1877.
Mb. C. M. Powzits died at bis resi
dence iu this place on last Saturday
morning. He bad been sick for sev
eral weeks, and was quite an old uian.
It brings a broad grin upon the
faces of the good, honed old farmers
when they listen to the guano ven
ders telling of the merits of the
guano, I “represent."
This is the way the Atlanta Consti
tution speaks of our Representative:
“Hon. Mr. Turner, of Brooks, when
he speaks runs a lightning lathe and
turns out solid shot.
Tub many friends of that most ex
cellent citizen, Mr. T. N. Arrington,
will he pained to learn that his health
has been very feeble for several weeks
past. It is to be hoped that ho will
noon be restored to his usual health
Doctors Jelks and Paterson arc at
tending him.
Mu. Dempsey Wood died at his resi
dence in the southern portion of this
county,last week, at the ripe old age
of ninety years, lib moved to this
section of*countrv in 1825, and conse
quently ■encountered the Indians in
tlieir depredations upon the whites
several times.
It is wonderful to realize the new
principle, Dr. J. H. McLean’s cough
and lung healing globules. As the
globule comes in contact with the
juices in the month, a gas generates
which sodthes and heals any soreness
in the throat or lungs, stops coughing
and consumption. Trial boxes 25

America!) Agriculturist.
The above named journal is the
lw?Ht agricultural paper published in
the country, and should be in the
hands of every farmer who desires to
keep pace with tile improvements of
the day in progressive farming, horti
culture, stock raising, bee culture, etc.
The price of the American Agricult
uri.'t, post paid, is;sl.Go per year, and
the Quitman Reported is $2.00, but
we will send the In m papers to any
address, one year, postage free, for
$3.00
We are brought under renewed
obligations to Dr. Thomas P. Janes,
Commissioner of Agriculture, for his
circulars Nos. 12 and 35. In his cir
cular, No. 35, he gives the results of
the soil test of fertilizers; and also
the analysis of the fertilizers to be
sold in Georgia for 1877. Those who
are using fertilizers would do well to
procure his circular No. 35; for in ad
dition to the analysis of the guanos
to be used, he gives a most excellent
formula for making compost manure
or a fertilizer at a cost of $7.50 per
ton.

Our Kitle into tile Country.
On last Monday we took a ride to
the Southern portion of this (Brooks)
county, and noticed that the planters
generally have their land prepared
for corn, and plantations in most ex
cellent order. The fencing reminds
us of ante-bnllum times. The outlook
betokens a high state of prosperity,
and of a truth we can sav, that there
is not a more prosperous set of farm
ers to be found in the Southern States
than in that portion of this county.
They have always raised an abund
ance of provisions, and have on hand
corn, bacon, syrup, and grain for sale
ju great profusion.

—We noticed an u a usually large

-—The pantomime tronp gave an

—Some of our young men are af

know of one young man in particular
who is very gloomy and despondent,
and cannot raise enough courage to
even smile. He has it bad; we sym
pathize with him in his troubles, and
advise him to be patient and per
severe. The roses will bloom again,
and the summer’s sweets return, and
she will probably regret her coolness
and come back to her first-love ere
its hopes fade away.
Oun young friend D. W. Rountree’s
excellent communication was received
too late for this issno of tho Repoutkr.
It will appear in our next, and will
doubtless he read by the many friends
of Hon. W. E. Smith with a great
deal of interest, ns it is a very high
encomium of that gentleman’s states
manship.
“Citizen’s" communication on edu
cation was received too lato for this
issue. It will appear in our next,
and we trust will awaken such an in
terest as the subject deserves. Our
columns aro always open to those
who wish to ventilate any subject that
pertains to tho welfare and good of
our community, and wo invito com
munications on all subjects of general
interest.
We call attention to tho notice of
B. N. Tucker, from which it will be
seen that he has located at this place
for the season. All who have traded
with him can inform those in want of
such information whether ho will do
to tie to or not. One thing we can
say, he sells a great deal of stock, and
we have not heard any one say that
they were not treated all O. K. by
him. To those in want of stock wo
say give him a trial.
AVk are informed that a newspaper
is to he started in Vienna, Dooly coun
ty. This is a move in the right di
rection. Every county should have
a paper published within its limits.
It is a paying business. Only a short
time is required to amass a fortune iu
the newspaper business. Look at the
Harpers, •). G. Bennett, of the Herald,
Christopher, of the Mirror; look at ns!
Before wo started into the newspaper
bnsiners we were as “poor as church
mice.” Xow look at us!

Notice.
Mayo it’s Oitici%
Quitman, Ga., Feb. 13, 1877.
At a regular meeting of the Town
Council, held February 5, the follow
ing resolution was passed;
On motion of Alderman Ricks it was
Jlr.solcrJ, That the Mayor be in
structed to notify all parties who have
any public streets of the Town enclos
ed to open them by the Ist of March
next, otherwise it will be done at their
expense.
In accordance with the above reso
lution, I would respectfully notify all
parties who have streets’ belonging
to the Town under fence, to open them
by the Ist of March next, ot berwise it
will be done by the Marshal at their
expense.

Wonderful Success.
It is reported that Boschee’s Ger
man Syrup has, since its introduction
iu the United States, reached the im
mense sale of 40,000 dozen per year.
Over 0,000 Druggists have ordered
this medicine direct from the Factory,
at Woodbury, N. J., and not one has
reported a single failure, but every
letter speaks of its astonishing suc
cess in curing severe Coughs, Colds
settled on tho Breast, Consumption,
or any disease of the Throat and
Lungs. Yve advise any person that
has any predisposition to weak
Lungs, to go to their Druggists,
Jelks A Mabbktt or 11. 11. Ixayton,
and get this medicine, or inquire
about it. Regular size, 75 cents; sam
ple bottle, 10 cents. Two doses will
relieve any case. Dou’i neglect your
cough.
AVe call the attention of young men
who desire to learn book-keeping in
nil of its branches, to the card of Mr.
John Brass, who proposes to open a
commercial school at night for the
purpose of instructing all who will fa
vor him with their patronage, not
only in book-keeping, but how to con
duct commercial transactions iu all of
their ramifications. Mr. Brass is
proverbially one of tbe best account
ants to be found in the whole coun
try, and is fully capable to impart the
most useful knowledge to tuose who
will attend his school. The many
who have received instruction from
him have never found any difficulty
in obtaining first-class positions ei
ther in the cities or elsewhere. It is
equivalent to success to have it said
that the applicant was instructed by
Mr. Brass. The opportunity is a good
one, and the rates are so remark
ably low, we trust that not only the
young men, but the business men
generally will avail themselves of it
and encourage the building up in
our town of a first-class commercial
sc hool.

Settled IJeyoSd a Doubt.—No one
questions the fact that more cases of
whites, suppressed and irregular men
ses and uterine obstructions, of every
kind, aro being daily cured, by Dr. ,T.
Bradfield’s Female Regulator, than bv
all other remedies combined. Its suc
cess in Georgia and other States is
beyond precedent in the annals of
physic. Thousands of certificates
from women everywhere pour in upon
tho proprietor. The attention of
prominent medical men is aroused in
behalf of this wonderful compound,
and the most successful practitioners
use it. If women suffer hereafter it
will be their own fault. Female Reg
ulator is prepared and sold by L. H.
Brndfield, Druggist, Atlanta. Ga., and
may he bought for $1.50 per bottle at
any respectable drug store in the
Uuion.
Effni* Truly WundrrJ'ul,
Cartersville, Ga., April 20, 1869.
This will certify that two members
of my immediate family, after having
suffered for many years from men
strual irregularity, and having been
treated without benefit by various
medical doctors, were at leugth com
pletely cured by one bottle of Dr. J.
Brad field’s Female Regulator. I
therefore deem it my duty to furnish
this certificate, with the hope of draw
ing attention of suffering womankind
to the merits of a medicine whose
power in curing irregular and sup
pressed menstruation, has been prov
en under my own observation. Its
effect on such cases is truly wonder
ful, and well may the remedy be call
ed, “Woman’sbest Friend.”

Whereas, it lias pleased the Almighty
disposer of mortal beings to take to Himself
in heaven our late sister teacher and friend,
Miss Regina Ramreav, who died recently
at her home in Blufion, Ga.; and,
AVhereas, during her recent stay in this |

time before her d-ath discontinued her stay
with us for the many inviting pleasures of

her many virtues, end our Unfeigned sorrow ,
of her untimely death; he it, therefore,

“doetlinll things well," we experience a be
reavement that finds no expression in words'
iu the death of our beloved and respeeteil

‘2d. That in her death we have lost a
friend the brightness of whose intelligence
lias often instructed and and lighted ns, whose
kindness and nobleness of heart and purpose
is stamped upon our memories by the recol
lection of the many kind nets and cheerful
words done and spoken among us; whose
many virtues we will strive to imitate, and
whose Ka-'h 1 memory we wilt ever cherish
until we shall meet her, as we hope, in a
laud where
“Sickness and sorrow, pain and death
Are felt and feared no more.’’
ltd. That we dedicate a blank page on our
record hook sacred to 1 1 ■ r memory, and
tender our most heartfelt sympathies to her
bereaved parents and family, assure them
that knowing something of her worth an I
merit we appreciate, as far as we mav, and
deeply mourn the atHiction they have suf
fered iu her death,
