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 the peer in railway influence of Gar relt, Vanderbilt and Scott. Ilappi- !y, however, this is a Southern line, 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 to this section of country. When the company’s liue crosses the Gear gia frontier iu Da le county, so far as local rates are concerned, it passes under the control and supervision of the R-.ilroad Commissioners of the State. Colonel Cole asserts that he will, in every instance, defer to their decisions, aud does not intend to The Carteraville Express, in its j discriminate in the least degree for The bell punch has been so much of a failure in Virginia that Gover nor Holiday’s message recommends its repeal, unless measures can be adopted to secure its proper enforce ment, - »•» 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 gusta, Maine,soldiers’ moument sub scription with £500—just about as much as he once gave a substitute to go and be a soldier in his place. Twenty kegs of gold were received in Chicago from New York a few days ago. Each weighed about 300 pounds, and contained £75,000, mak ing £1,500,000 in all. This money was sent by Jim Keene in payment for wheat. II b? proud of the many exponent; • f their principles. Rearing b gets reading. The habit of reading builds up a lov ■ for literatu e, a thirst for news, a desire to ex end the range of daily thought. For that purpose every citizen needs Iris home paper for the home news, and one or mure other periodicals for lr.inself and his family. Our views upon this matter are not, therefore, unreasonable. The more the home papers are strengthened and bniit up and the communities ure composed of reading people, the gle aud Plienix Factory of Colum bus only paid 6 per cent., but it is doing a splendid business. Now, who says cotton manufacturing docs not pay in the South. The Chroni cle estimates that the money which will be paid out in Augusta this month in the shape of dividends wil! amount to £499,000.

Ol mg the town was thrown into great CALnoUNj _ t _ . GEORGIA, excitement on hearing that little] Loretta Brown, the only darling of Dr. W. T. Brown aud wife, had oeen carried from its little bed to unknown parts. The opinion of all was that she had been kidnapped, and steps wert immediately taken to effect, if posiibl", ] lor r gone. Nothing defi nite could be heard of her until late Saturday evening. Her cl ithing was found some distance from the garden, apparently having been torn from her by the merciless hand of a wild beast. The body has not as yet been h-ard of. She was about four greater will be the progress of peri-[years old, anl extremely intelligent .last issue, makes the announcement that Mr. John W. Akin has beeu en gaged as associate editor of that pa per. From what we have learned of 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- ticclllo Monticellonian. Now what would onr readers think of us if we were to change the name of the Ad vertiser and rush forth with tie Oedsrtown Oedartownian ? For the •newspaper family we feel like ex- claiiniug: “Head ns, somebody.” 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 pushed direct to Decatnr from At lanta. This route of course will •leave Carrollton ont in the cold, and we doubt very materially, if the grade already made to Dougle-sville, will be used to that point, in caBO the road should be built. 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 fect that enterprise will be to all in tents and purposes ft new organiza tion so far as relates to its policy and future management The same offi cers will do the routine work, bu: under the direction and absolute control of the road to which it has been released and virtaally united. Colonel Cole is the roaster mind that will govern.” .*• ■— 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.” Washington—Re-assembling of Con gress— Political Movements, etc. Washington, D. C„ Jan. 7th, 1880. 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. odic l literature aud all legitimate publishing interests will prosper ac cordingly.

The weekly press has gradually grown up into a powerful political as well as social engine, diffusing information ou all subjects of in terest, and reflecting great credit on the able men who have the control of the various journals. The news papers have within the past few years greatly increased iu num bers ana size, and improved in liter ary character. They are to lie found in every town of importance in the States, and a poorly edited sheet is rarely seen. The publishing and editing of these papers involves con siderable expense, and the fact thai they are maintained is evidence o! the intelligence and enterprise o! their readeis. We are glad to speak a good word for onr weekiy con temporaries, lor we recognize the talent that is displayed in conduct ing ihem and wish them increased success in the future. We would also urge upon the people of each community the ne cessity of giving their local paper the most cordial support. The 1 >cal.paper is what gives strangers tneir knowledge of the character of ihe people, of the country where the paper is published, and in pro portion to the support given Tilt the journal be conduc ed. The town that is not able or which refuses to support its local paper lacks the enterprise that will bring prosperity to the Mr. Frank Goodman, of Wilkin son county, accidentally shot ai d kill ed Miss Mary Payne on Christmas day. The Thomasville Times hoists Til- den and Hendricks at its mast-head. The Rome Tribune says: “In point of safety the Rome bonds stand well; Augusta and Atlanta paper on ly exceed onrs on the market.” The Albany Advertiser announces green peas and new Irish potatoes, and doesn’t care a straw about Flori da. Gov. Joseph E. Brown has pur chased real estate in A lanta in the past six months, it is said, amounting to £35,000. There is a gourd vine in Stewart county that covers 40 square yards, and at one time it had over 500 gear's on it. In fact there were s many that the owner of the vine fill ed up a gully with the stray ones tha: had fallen off. “Mr. J. S. Harris informed us,” says the Quitman Reporter, “thai. h** killed a huge rattlesnake on the 18th ult, which was five feue one inch long.; had fc-nrieen. rat l.-s and a button, and weighed six pounds. He found his sn.-.kosliip hung by the ' cos. in the crack of the ft nee appa rently dead, hut when rt-leas-d anti allowed to rest awhile ill the sun shine, 1-ug enough f,r his blqgd to thaw, he showed that he was ready fir active service, and was summari ly dispatched.” The Hinesville Gazette says the colored people of Liberty county have no idea of leaving this good lane for the uncertainties of Kansas and Ne braska. Their condition is undoubt edly improving each year, as shown by their schools, the appearance of their farms and the rice mid cotton which they are selling. The writer had the opportunity, some months since, of v rifyiug. the above state ment by personal observa'im. There are negro farmers in that comity who will sell 1,200 bnshels of rice the present year, worth over £1,500. The colored people are "Iso very civil and w.ll behaved in that portion of Ha state. Dublin Gazetle: Last Tuesday night Walter, son of Mr. Jerry Lee, was seald d to death under the lul lowing circumstances : Mr. Lee was killing hogs, and for the purpose ol scalding Lliem, had buried a kettle or large pot in the ground within two or three inches from the top. and as the hands were dragging the hogs to put them in the kettle, is seems that the liule fellow was standing behind them and near the kettle, and in endeavoring to g t out of the way, ran a^ain=t the kettle and was tripped by the rim striking him just above the ankles. He fell backward in the kettle, and was en tirely covered by toe boiling water except his feet. He was immediate ly taken out, but not soon enough. The little fellow lived about twelvi hours, suffering th« most excruciat ing pain, when the li*tie spirit wing ed its flight. A letter from Oxford to the Atlan ta Constitution says : “The migra tory feeling is rife in that portion of Middle Georgia that suffered so dis astrously from drought the past year. The move at present seeir.s to be in the direction of the wire grass region —to the c unties of Telfair, Tatt nall, Montgomery, Dodge, aud vari ous other counties of lower Georgia. Scarcely a day but squads of men and children may be seer, moving in tins direction. The uncertainty of tin cotton crop, the vast amount of ex pense and trouble it imposes, has in duced a greet many to try sheep and cattle raising. For this business iu place in the Southern States' offer superior advantages to the wiregrass region of Georgia.” 'The Graiiteville Manufacturing Company, near Augusta, announces » senn annul dividend of 4 per cent, on its stock, the Augusta Manufac turing Company a quarterly divi dend of 2 per cent., and the Langley Manufacturing Company will short ly announce a semi anual dividend of4 per cent.

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.
