when probably half through their
work, reported to the House—light
t>! the committee r-commending
that he be impeached, and one dis
senting from the mnjority report
With a somewhat careful reading
©f all the evidence, and the two re
posts, we find that the only matt r
complained of amounts to about
this: Col. Renfroe, in order to make
his bond of two hnndred thousand
dollars, had to apply to certain of
the Atlanta banks. One stipulation cer that hia company would receive
The Hllltarr.
We would like to ask, just for in
formation, what has become of the
“Polk County Guards ? ” We know
-hat in 1874 a company was organ
ised, a splendid body of men, good
officers, who were officers throngh
the late war in the Confederate army.
T.-iese officers inform ns that they
promptly reported their organization
'o Gov. Smith, who forwarded com
missions to them, with the promise
that the company should be armed
ns soon as possible. Shortly after
he election of Gov. Colquitt the
facts were made known to him, with
a like promise about the arms. At
one time one of the officers of the
comjiany visited the executive office,
and was shown by the officer who
had charge of the military bureau
that the “Poik County Guards” was
the first company ou the list, of
unarmed companies, and hence would
be first armed. lie assured our offi-
ton City. They say that only thir
teen deaths, all told, have occnred
rora this disease; that no new cases
have occnred for a week or two and
‘hat all who have it are convalescent.
Wi'l the Atlanta Constitntien be as
diligent in correcting as in making
this false report ? We hope and be
lieve it will.

of the banks required ‘hot the trea
surer make their banka repositories
for a part of the funds of the State.
On funds so deposited the banks
realised considerable sums of money,
just as they do on private deposits,
and without any agreement of the
kind, paid CoL Renfroe part of their
profits. There is no proof that the
State has lost one ceut by the trans
action. In fact the committee
hot charge any loss to the State.
On the contrary, the whole proceed
ings show that Col. Rerfroe lias been
a safe, prudent officer, and by his
management has saved the State
thousands of dollars. The truth
but for a voluntary statement made
by Col. Renfroe, in all honesty
purpose, relative to his arrangement
with the banks, and their voluntary
contribution of apart of their pro
fits to bim, nothing would have been
known about it
We conclude, 1st, that the State
has lost nothing by Col. Renfroe
administration. 2nd, that he has
saved the State thousands of dollars
without extra charge, and 3rd, that
the Legislature is running invest!
gation mad. The cost of impeach
ment will cost the State ten times as
much as Col. Renfroe has received
We believe in receiving the funds he
did from the banks, he violated the
constitution, in its letter; but it
does seem that a reproof from the
Legislature would have been suffl
cient. He certainly evidenced no
intention to wrong the State, and
discontinued the receiving any funds
from the banks as soon as the ille
gality was brought to his notice.
Maine and California both went
republican at the recent elections in

_*» While the people desire and ex
pect the Legislature to make thor
ough work in the matter of invtsti
gat ions, they do not require that it
make an ass of itself in the business.
From the best information we can
get we we safe in suggesting to our
friends of the Constitution tliat;their
Yorkville correspondent is a chronic
sensational liar and should not be
allowed to use the columns of
respectable and widely circulated
journal to injure an annocent com-
mnnity.
From an article published in the
Atlanta Constitution of the 10th
instant, and copied in the Tri-weekly
Rome Conrier of the 11th insb, we
learn that there is some “fearful dis
ease raging in Polk, Paulding and
Haralson counties.” This is indeed
news to the people of Polk county,
especially around Cedartown. The
anthor of the article in the Consti
tution, heads bis article “Yorkville,
Da.” Yorkville, we understand, has
a population of just twenty-one
souls, or had before this “fearful
disease” struck it. From the article
esecan learn of only one death, that
of Clark White. So the town of
Yorkville has a population of twen
ty left. The mortality is only one
twenty-first part of ail the popula
tion. Every bad has its good, every
bitter its sweet, every dark cloud a
silver lining, so of this “fearful dis
ease.” It seems to be entirely con
fined to the young men. Lt*t as
thank a good Providence that we
have all the women, children, boys,
girls, and old men left us. Polk
county was never healthier than
now; is as healthy as any connty in
the State except Haralson, and there
natural deaths seldom occur, except
from old age. We do not know of
a single grave yard in Haralson.
Seriously, so far as we can learn,
the Yorkville correspondent of the
Constitution has been led off by his
own foolkh fears, and has magnified
the sickness ten fold.
But then he wrote his article while
“Chirk White was being buried,”
and blood oozed out of White’s
month and ears and his tongue was
swgllen and black, and the fellow
had the right to get scared. Why
was he not at the burial, “if all the
young men” were having the dis
ease? Get np something else, Mr.
Yorkville correspondent.
Dr. Lovick Pierce, who has been
seriously ill at his home in Sparta,
is growing stronger, and it is even
hoped be may be able to preach again.
their arms in about three weeks.
The three weeks have passed into
mouths, and still no arms, and this
too when several other companies of
recent organization have been armed
and equipped. We believe there are
but four or five in North Georgia,
and not one nearer us than lt ime.
If the Governor thinks onr compa

t-nilTLIJU REPORT.
A Fatal Fever Raging ia Certain In
terior Counties of the State.
GREATEST EXCITEMENT PRETAIL-
ING.
The Disease Spreading.
Bf Tdrgnpk to th4 Burning ,Y«pt.
New Yoke, September 11.—A
special dispatch from Atlanta says :
“The reports of a fatal fever raging
in the counties of Polk, Paulding
and Haralson have not been over
drawn. Within a few days over fifty
men hare died in an exclusively ru •
ral population. They are mostly
young men. Those who are attack
ed with it suffer horrioly, the tongue
turning black and swelling to dou
ble its siz-*, and blood oozing from
the mouth and ears. After death
the bodies become spotted and dis
colored. One physician reports that
of twenty-nine cases under his treat-
men^ not one has recovered. The
course of the disease is run in a f w
days. The greatest alarm and dis
tress prevails and the disease is stea
dily spreading. Physicians pro
nounce it spot'ed typhus fever.”
We reproduce the above, display
heading and all, as we find it in ti e
press dispatches of one of onr ex
changes. That, or thesubsUnce of
it, has been or will be published in
nearly every paper in the Uuited
States, many thousands in all, and
there is scarcely a syllable of truth in
it. It is based upon a lying,‘.sensa
tion report sent by a correspondent of
the Atlanta Constitution from York
ville, in Paulding coanty. The on-
foundation for it nil is that dur
ing the last two months a dozen or
fifteen fatal cas.’S of typical typhoid
•ever have occured within a radius
of ten or twelve miles of R'ickraart in
this connty and in Paulding and
Haralson. There was noth ng mys-
rious or unusual about it except
that typhiod fever was an nr.asaal
visitor to those parts and found the
local physicians somewhat inexperi
enced in its treatment The fact that
its victims were nearly all young men
nothing more than those f:
miliar with the habits of the disease
would expect It rarely attacks ex
treme youth or nge. The statements
about the spotted bodies, swelling
tongues, exuding blood, etc., are fic
tions, pure and simple. There is
perhaps not a connty in the State, or
out of it, that can show a smaller
percentage of deaths to;the popula
tion during the past season than can
Polk.
In conclusion we beg to remind
onr brethren of the press, and of the
ate press particularly, that there
are eight papers published whithin a
few hourB ride of the district in
which this “terrible disorder’' is said
be epidemic, and before giving
such unbridled publicity to state
ments that are likely to do sneb in'
jury to this section of the State it
would at least have been respectful
have glanced over the papers pub
lished here and in Cartersville and
Rome, not to speak of those in Car
rollton and Marrietta, for some no
tice of su h a calami tous disease.
The Advertiser of few issues back
gavea truestatementof ab in tall there
was to tell aud.told it in a small para
graph—to-wit, that a fatal form of
ver prevailed there and several
deaths had rcsultedjfroin it. We tri s
that the papers will give us much
prominence to a correction o! this
wild, foolish, groundless, damaging
rnmor as they gave to the report, at
least.
We have jnst conversed with gen-
lemen from the very centre of this
called infected district Jtnd they
are astonished at the magnitude and
falsity of the reports that are abroad
concerning their section. They tell
also that Dr. Pierce, the physi-
cian'who treated most of the cases, has
had an inquiry addressed to him on
the subject trom the office of the Na
tional Board of Health at Washing-
Lake Creek, Ga,
Sept 15th, 1879.

My Dear Sir: Yonr favor of
August loth is to hand, and con
tents noted.
Enclosed I send yon a copy of
“qualitative analysis” recently made
of your Mineral Water” by Dr. W.
J. Land. The analysis has just
been completed,and required a num
ber of days of ardnous work by Dr.
Land. I regret very much the de
lay yon have been put to in this
matter, bnt it could not be avoided.
Your sample was placed in the hands
of the Chemist jnst as soon as he
was prepared to receive it. Prior to
that time be was crowded, and very
much crowded with his regular offi
cial work analyzing samples of fer
tilizers, which it would have been
improper for me to interrupt.
I may add t-iat this analysis, al
though I of course make no ohurge
against yon, has been a very labori
ous and expensive one. Below you
will find copy of a letter fr m Dr.
Land, which accompanied his analy
sis.
With regard, I am,
Yours very respectfully,

Dear Sir: Herewith I enclose
“qualitative” analysis of the Cave
Spring “Mineral Water” which ap
pears to be very good “Chalybeate”
water, of “complex constitution.”
I consider it a valuable “Mineral
Water,” and worth a quantitative
analysis; yet the latter will require
much time, and at least five gallons
of water. I would advise you to
make a charge of $40.00 or $45.00
for the “qualitative analysis.”

ny to the party, and enable it to
meet its Republican enemies with an
united front These hopes appeared
at one time to be actually realized,
for from onr dispatches it seems that
Mr. John C. Jacobs, Chairman of
the Convention, was nodMhated by
acclamation, amid cheering and the
greatest enthusiasm,' and all trouble
in the party ranks s.emed settled
The hopes of those desiring unity,
however, were des'ined to ipeedy dis
appointment. From soms canse or
other, best known to himself, Mr. Ja
cobs declined the honor thus thrust
upon him, and u scene of confusion
followed. As a result, the Tamma
ny delegates carried out their threats
and withdrew, and Governor Robin
son was selected as Gubernatorial
standard bearer.
How the action of the Kew York
convention will affect the result in
November, we at this distance from
the scene cannot, at this time, pre
tend to say. But one thing is very
m -- —
The Lame Law.
Under this head the Griffin’News
calls attention to the following not
very eieditable condition of matters
with reference to the liquor license
law. It says:
Under the mw all liqnor dealers
have to pay to the State $25 as an
annual license, and the collection of
this devolves upon the Comptroller
General, who discharges this duty
throngh the tax collectors. These
latter officers give separate receipts
for these amounts, bnt keep no re-
-ord of it, and forward it to the
Comptroller, who was not required
to keep a record either. This lef:
a grand opening for stalling, if an
officer should prove dishonest, as
there must be at least one thousand
whisky dealers in the State, and this
loose state of affairs has existed for
years. A bill has been introduced in
the House, by Judge Hall, if we
mistake not, whose attention was
called to the matter by the gentleman
referred to, to require the Comptrol
ler to keep a record of these collec
tions and make a report of the same.
It is not very creditable to former
Legislatures that snch a leak should
have been allowed to exist, as it coaid
have been made a great source of
corruption.
certain. That is, that now Mr. Til
den’s chances for the Presidential
nomination in 1880rest entirely upon
the result of that election, He has
made the issue. He has thrown the
gage of battle to bis enemies of his
own porty in his State, and has defied
them to do their worst. This elec
tion, therefore, is now as much to de
cide whether Samuel J. Tilden shall
lead the National Democracy in 188t)
os it is to decide whether Lucias
Robinson shall be the next Governor
of New York. If Robinson is elec
ted despite Tammany’s opposition,
then there is hardly a power in th g
country which can prevent Tilden’
nomination to the Presidency, with
the almost absolute certainty that he
will be the next occupant of the
White Hoa.-e. II, on the other hand,
the Democracy is defeated in Novem
ber, the responsibility for such defeat
will be placed by the country upon
the shoulders of Tildeu and his
friends, his chances for securing the
President •! prize he Ims so long cov
eted will sink down to nothing, and
he might as well retire fromte^e llelj.
He has therefore made it an lilisolute
neeesaty to himself that the Repub
lican party shall be defeated in New
York, and his friends and himself
must exert their every energy to
make success certain.—Savaiuiai

New York has already famished
four candidates for the Presidency in
stccesion—McClellan in 1864, 8ey-
monr in 1868, Greely in 1872 and
Tilden in 1876. Three of these can
didates were defeated by the people,
and the fourth suffered himself to be
cheated out of the office after he was
elected to it by the people; for even
Justice Miller admits that the Elec
toral vote cf Louisiana belonged to
the Democrats by between seven and
eight thousand votes. In jnstice to

This is melted in large iron kettles

eighteen to twenty feet sqnare, on
the floor of which is spread a layer of
spent tan bark. Upon this is placed
tne corroding pots. These are of
earthenware, resembling ordinary
flower pots. In theee are placed
about twelve onnees dilute acetic acid.
These pots are then filled with lead
buckles, and then covered with
boards, npon!which a layer of spent
tanbark abont eighteen or twenty
inches thick, is spread. Then another
layer, until eight or ten layers of pots
are placed in the “stack.” The tan-
bark begins to ferment, evolving heat
and carbonic acid, the acetic acid is
evaporated and combines with the
thin film of lead oxide on the surface
of the buckles, forming snbacetate of

vent absorption of the oil) and is rea

The greatest care is exercised in se
lecting the mt talic It ad, as any im-
pnrities, snch ts silver, iron or cop
per, would greatly impair the color
and durability of the paint.
It ij well knows that White Lead
is the basis of all permanent paints,
and for 300 years science has failed
to famished a satisfactory substitute.
Any adulteration of this article only
detracts that mnch from its durabili
ty, and in the end is “costly eeonmy”
to the consumer.
If yon are going to paint or have
painting done, the qnality of fbe ma
terial used is of the first importance.
Tbefore it is necessary to bny, or
have your painter bny, the very best
material, as it takes as mnch or more
time and labor to apply a “so called
cheap” or worthless paint as it does
for tne best article.
Strictly Pure ’Lead is undoubted
ly the best, and at the present low
price is unquestionably tne cheapest
paint to the consumer.
If you want a good job and wish
to know exactly what material goes
on vour property, bny or have yonr
S inter to buy some regular brand of
rictly Pure Lead. This, together
with such pure colors as are needed
to make the required shades, when
properly mixed and applied, will in
sure a good and permanent job of
work.
As to the amount of paint requir
ed to cover any given amoruit of sur
face, no exact mle can be laid down,
as the condition of surfaces vary so
greatly. On an average, for the first
or priming coat, 15 lbs of paint, mix
ed in the proportion of 100 lbs
white lead with 5} gallons linseed oil
with the ptoper dryer, will cover 100
square yards of smooth, well-seasoned
pine surface. And for the second
and third ooats, 22 lbs strictly pnie
lead to 4} gallons linseed oil, with
proper dryers cover 100 sqnare yards
of surface.
The following is an infallible and
simple commercial test of the purity
of white lead:
Take a piece of firm, close grained
Charcoal, and near one end of it scoop
ont a cavity about half an inch in
diameter and a quarter of as inch
in depth. Place in the cavity a sam
ple ol the lead to be tested, about
the size of a small pea, and apply
it continuously the blue or hottest
mrt of the flame of the blow-pipe;
T the sample be strictly pure, it will
in a very short time, say two min-
■tes, be reduced to metalic lead,
leaving no residue; but if it be
adulterated, even to the extent of
ten per cent, only, with oxide of
zinc, sulphate of baryta, whiting or
any other carbonate of lime, (which
substances are now the only adulter
ations used,) or if it be composed en
tirely of these materials, at is some*
times the case with cheap Lead, it
cannot be reduced, but will remain
on ths charocal an infusible mass.
