On** article iu last week’s Adver
tiser, suggesting the propriety of a
neeling of our citizens r or the pur
lose of considering the subject of
nviting* the company having in
vntcmplation the building of the
Jcoigia Western railroad to exam-
ne the advantages of a route taking
in Cedartown on their line, seems to
have had something to do with
ironsing our citizens to a realization
of the importance of that subject.
On last Friday night a meeting was
held at the Council Chamber, at
which were present quite a number
of the business men and prominent
citiz ns of the place, and a commit
tee waa appointed to go forthwith
to Atlanta to consult with a repre
sentative of the company in the in
terest of our town. That commit
tee consisted of the following wide
awake gentlemen: Mayor W. F.
Turner, Major J. A. Blarice, A.
Huntington, and R. T. Poole. A
1 n :thy article in reference to their
visit, from the Atlanta Constitution,
organizing and strengthening the
Southern Republican club, evidently
with the design of making a vigo
rous fight in some of the Southern
States this summer and full.
There is no doubt the greenback
labor party—if it be a party—wil
have a large meeting here this week
to talk over the prospects and decide
upon a time and place for holding
a national convention. The invifci-
tioris to this gathering i3 addressed
in substance to all who are not in
country and deserves to sick into
decay. But that town that has a
live, fearless and energetic newspa
per, and there arj many of them,
sends the intelligence all over the
land and the people know that such
towns are thriving and prosperous.
It is, of course, the proper thing to
subscribe for at least one of the
large city dailies, but the first duly
of the citizen is to support his local
journal for the sake of patron
izing home industries if for no other,
but the return he will receive will
far outinea lire all that it will cost
him. The press lias ever upheld
full accord with either of the older j the strictest principles of morality,
parties. It is doubted if any con- truth and justice, and citizens may
parties. It is doubted if any
siderable degree of harmony will
prevail. Everybody will be welcome,
and those who accept such a general
invitation are usually people who
have an admiration for the sound of
their own voices, and faith in their
own individual utterances. How
ever valuable those ideas, or able
their organizatio s may be, such
men never make a harmonious-
meeting.
The administration ought to adopt
vigorous measures m regard to the
wilt be found in another column. I jjte Indian. chiefs who murdered
[’lie gentlemen failed to find Mr.
Lockhart, who in behalf of the com
pany, purchased the old road bed and
right of way, (he having left for Lou
isville,) and the civil engineer who
is arranging for a survey, was then on
his way through the country to
Gadsden, p-ospectir.g for a route,
and will likely take in this town on
his rei urn trip. But the gentlemen,
as will be seen f-om the Constitu
tion’s article, succeeded in interest
ing Atlanta in our behalf, and as
matters stand, we think the pros
pect of the road coming through
this place, if it is built, is very
flattering. The article from the
Constitution is a truthful represen
tation of the facta, and can hardly
fail to be of benefit to us. We
shall watch this matter, and shall
have more to say as onr prospects
grow brighter.
Discussing the railroad situation
in this State, the Macon Telegraph
and Messenger says: “The consoli
dation of the Central and Western
and Atlantic Railrads with the pow
erful Nashville, Chattanooga and St.
Louis line, under the masterly man
agement of Col. E. W. Cole, forms a
startling epoch in the railroad histo
ry of the South. It will m ko him

beginning at that great focal centre,
St. Louis, and stretching out nine
hundred miles to Georgia’s seaport.
Al! the through trade from the West,
therefore, will -be so much pure gain

It is estimated that the enhanced
value of cotton has already brought
into Geor.ia $10,000,000 over the ex
penses of the production, which goes
nto the pockets of the planters.
Senator Blaine has headed an Au

Twenty kegs of gold were received
in Chicago from New York a few

nite could be heard of her until late

was found some distance from the

that Mr. John W. Akin has beeu en
gaged as associate editor of that pa

the young man, we are ready to con
gratulate the paper on securing his
services, and to wish for him a pleas
ant experience in his new calling.
Some papers bear up under some
very strange names. As, for instance
we have in this State the Madison
Madisonian, and right over here in a
neighboring State we hear of the Mon-

The Carrollton Times says: An
engineer arrived in Atlanta last week
'for the purpose of surveying the
route of the Georgia Western. We
■ arc free to say that the indications
'-from what v/e can see and gather are
that the Georgia Western will bo

or against any city or locality. On
the contrary, he roundly declares
that his aim will be to conciliate the
good will of every hamlet on the line
of road, and consult the best inter
est of the people. If this programme
is carried out, it will do much to dis
arm the widespread hostility which
has, whether justly or otherwise, ex
isted up to the present period against
the Central Railroad. Indeed, in ef

Brethren, do give us a Jest on the
boom business.
This year is likely to be known in
in history as the one in which the
American people vindicted their
ability for self-government by over
throwing the party of fraud and ex
treme constitutional methods; by
electing that patriot statesman, Ho
ratio Seymour, to the Chief Magis
tracy to Succeed the only incumbent
of that office who ever entered upor
it through a perversion of the clear
ly expressed will of the people.—
Washington Post.
In a letter to the World, a resident
of Galesville, Wisconsin, thus refers
to the Maine troubles: “Please keep
before our Republican frie ids two
points: 1. That they established
the precedents in the Southern States
and justified them. 2. That ;!
L -uisaua returning board forged iff-
filavits in New .Orleans to justify
their action, and could not throw ont
votes enough under their powers and
under the iaw to steal the States and
the Presidency except by barefaced
frauds, while Governor Gareelon, of
Maine, has simply obeyed the letter
of Republican laws.”

Editor Advertiser : Congress
met yesterday, congratulated itself
on meeting and adjourned. The day
after the holiday recess is “blue
Monday” to Congressmen. To-day
business will commence. In the
House an excellent revision of the
rules will have first consideration.
It is the work ol such accomplished
gentlemen as Speaker Randall, Mr.
Frye, Alex. H. Stephens, Mr. Black
burn, and others. It reduces the
number of rules from 166 to 45, sim
plifies them, and makes them consis
tent with each other. This discus
sion will occupy a week at least. It
is the wish of many prominent men
in both parties that the appropriation
bills, Indian affairs, and other press
ing matters then secure immediate
attention and that, au early adjourn
ment may be expected. This will be
accomplished if the finances a;e not
meddled with.
There seems to be a general agree
ment that the a' ray will be increased
to 25,000 men-
R-preseutative Wood’s proposal to
issue a three and one-balf per cent,
bond fur the redemption of bonds at
a higher rate of interest gains friends
in both houses.
■ Few appear to b-liere now
that Senator Biyard’s proposition
to take away the legal tender quality
of greenbacks will pass either house.
Republicans of prominence here
are taking a decided interest in re-
a.-ent Meeker, and outraged the
ladies of the agency. It seems to
me that the policy so far pursu-d
through Ihe influence of Secretary
Schurz is a sham - upon the nation.
He is wai'ing for those wretches to
come voluntarily to their punish
ment, and while be waits justice
goes unsatisfied and the Indians
have time to prepare for further
outrage. The Secretary’s inteutions
are gord, no doubt, but I think he is
almost alone among white men in
believing that hi3 policy is either
humane or judicious. Olive.
The Thlrl-te-m Programme—Grant’s
Southern Tripaa Electioneering Ex-
eursioa.
Wmrhingtoa Special the Cincinnati Commercial,
The departure of General Grant
for the South, joined to Philadelphia
developments, can have but one in
terpretation. He is a candidate for the
Presidency—precisely as much so as
John Sherman , or James G. Blaine.
The boomers throughout the c>un-
try have been duly notified. The
silence of General Grant is no lon
ger a mystery. It simply gives con
sent
There are many sincerely fri-ndly
to General Grant who r.'gret this be
lieving that his glory must now fade,
especially as it is evident tha! hr is
in the hands of the most cunning and
unscrupulous of our politicians, and
that his nomination would make the
Republican parly a mere personal
concern.
The Southern trip amounts to a
public advertisement that, General
Grant’s longing for home scenes and
friends, of which so much was said
while he was abroad, was of sing 1 *'.,!* ■
ly brief duration, and that » ,.e--k ol
the repjse said to be so essential at
Galena, was quPa enough. Tin 1
truth is, Gen»r..i Grant goes South
on an electioneering tour, and to be
out of the way for a few months,
while the boom works. After he
satisfies his deep curiosity abont On
ba and Mexico, he will return to find
an organized series of booms from
New Orleans to New York.
His friends go so far as to resent as
an impertinence the candidacy of
others. A story was put out last
week that Sherman bad given bis
adhesion to Grant. It was started
with the view of impressing him that
it was high time he was out of the
way of the Chariot. Sheiman
promply said he was a candidate,
would stick to the last, and was on
principle opposed to the third term.
Another member of the Cabinet op.
posed to the third term is the Secre
tary of the Navy, and it is noticed
that while General Grant called on
Evarts (who is a boomer), he did not
call on Sherman or Thompson.
The pressure for an early conven
tion in Pennsylvania is to had the
way for Grant. It, is arranged that
when Cameron puts in Pennsylva
nia, Conkling is to f dlow with New
York. The Post-office machine is
being Worked by General Tyner to
bring Indiana next to the front, and
Logan and ffashburne are compet
ing for primacy in the boom iu Illi
nois.
The calculation is that with Penn
sylvania, New York, India a aud
Illinois, ahead for Grant, Republican
ism can be made a matter personal to
Grant. Perhaps tile boom may treak,
but it looks strong, and the people
should discuss the third term as .;
business proposition and make uj
their minds. Sherman’s steadiness
as a candidate is a great irritation
almost disloyalty, in fact—and the
breaking o f the delegati-ns in Penn
sy4vania, New York, Indiana aud
Illinois, would be an irreparable dis
aster to the boomers.

The weekly press has gradually

in every town of importance in the

But it’s work, work, work, iu darkness in light;

T HE next Presidential election will det«nnine
questions of vital importance to every citizen
A the Union. Upon its result* will depend the
perpetuity of our republican form of g-.trt rnsient.
All these questions will be tborough’y discussed
;.he next session of Congress, which begin* on the
1st day of Decerabor. It is our desire and our
purpose, so far as we can contribute to Ihftt end,
that every citizen shall be fblly informed upon all
ihese questions of vast moment. Is our natiocal
ffoveni newt lo be henceforth an imperial despot
ism ? Is the bayonet to rule the ballot ? Are tha
rights of the States, expressly resen ed in tha
Constitution, to yield to centralized dictatian •
-hall arrogant and imperiou* party leader*, under
*io cry of Liberty, ron the citizen of Liberty?
•h:dl Mammon be the only de : ty who sha 1 be ac-
^ now lodged a* having divine rights; bhall labor
is deprived of its just reward ? In order to bring
it within the means of every man, mechanic, far
mer ard l.-iborer, in all vocations, even in these
htrd times, to inform himse'f what political par-
tie? are pn-posing, we h^ve reduced tn* te»raa of
the Weekly American to ONB DOLLAR a year ;
For six month*. 75 cents : Three months. 40 re-nts.
The real value of the paper will not be decreased
with reduction of price; but will be vastly in
creased in proportion to price.
