Our friend, R. Toombs Wright,
son of Judge A. R. Wright, of Rome,
was admitted to the legal bar at this

stood one of the best examinations we

dict for him a glorious future. He
speaks of coming to our place ns his
future home. We will extend him
a warm welcome
Ben Peak, a dwarfish negro 4^
feet high, and weighing 120 ponnds,
is known to have eaten recently at
one sitting, in this place, 2 boxes
canned salmons, 1 pound of soda
crackers, I pound of candy, and one
pound of butter without bread.
And upon this conglomerated mass
of edibles he drank a quart of cold
water. His anatomy wasn’t serious
ly disarranged when last heard from
Mr. J. M. Savage, ot Rome, dyed
in this place last Friday. We
shouldn’t mention this melancholy
fact, but dying is his business, and
he does a good job in that line as was
plainly attested by samples shown
us. Mr. Savage is running the Rome
Steam Laundry and Dye Works, and
has built up a respectable business
in that city. He came down to get
some work in his line among our
people, and succeeded very well, we
learn.
On Monday morning last about
11 o’clock a small building used as a
cook room on tbe premises of Mrs.
Walthall, now occupied by Mr.
Chambliss and family, was discover
ed to be on fire by a negro woman
washing for the family in the yard.
An alarm was given, and by the
time a crowd had gathered the flames
had reached the roof and were rap
idly spreading. Men weie soon on
the roof and by the ablest kind of
work succeeded in extinguishing
the flames, but not without consid
erable damage to the roof, nearly
the whole of it being torn away. It
was fortunate the fire did not get
under toufall headway before beine
subdued, as the fl.inx-s might have
been communicated to the dwelling
and thence to that of Capt. West,
the wind being favorable. The fire
first caught in a chair of clothes.
The newest thing in suspenders is
to be found at the store of Barr &
Leak, and for convenience and com
fort they are not to le exc lied. They
are c tiled “pulley suspenders,” yet
their name is not to indicate, we sup
pose, that they would pull a fellow
out of the mud if he should happen
to slip down. The movement of the
body of the wearer of these suspen
ders is free and not drawing, as with
the ordinary kind. If you see th m
you will like them.
It is rumored in our place that
a stock company is abbut to be form
ed for the purpose of erecting here
this spring a large and handsome
brick hotel. As soon as the fact
bicoiiirs securely settled, we will en
deavor to let the public know.
More Houses.
For some time past there has
b f en in Cedartown a demand for
dwelling houses far beyond the sup
ply. At present there is not a vacant
dwelling in the place, and every
sort of make-shift that could be
improvised has found an occupant.
There are many houses that contain
several families, and many persons
that have been renting are building
and moving out, only to find their
old quarters occupied immediately
by some new comer. We verily be
lieve, withmrt exaggeration, that now
twenty-five new dwellings could be
rented out at a fair price in ten days
from their completion. Houses that
are now rented yield a return of from
15 to 25 per cent, per annum on their
value. If men who have the means
which they could well employ >n
this way, (and we believe there are
such in our midst,) would erect
more dwellings, they would fi' d,
that, in addition to the benefit they
would be conferring upon the town
and the people,they would be making
an investment that would pay hind-
somefy. Let ernne trm^ try the ex--
periment. We are crowded. ' Let us
expand a little. Outside of those
who contemplate erecting houses of
their own, it will take a good many
to supply the actual demand that
exists.
An Elegant Affair.
Quite a deliglui'ul evening was
that spent by the young people at
the residence of Mr. Julius A. Peek,
the occasion being a leap year,
pound, and valentine pariy gotten
op by the yonng ladies for last Fri
day night. The young ladies de
serve niueh credit for the manner in
which the affair was conducted as we
learn they played the “agreeable”
throughout in such a way as ti set
the young gentlemen the best of ex
amples. They called with vehicles
and escorted the gentlemen out and
extended them marked courtesy dur
ing the evening. The supper was
one of the most elegant features of
the affair and the valentine draw
ing was also highly enjoyed. As the
young ladies, unaccustomed to “tak
ing the lead” did so well in ail else,
we hope none will find it in their
hearts to throw censure upon what to
some might seem a cruel act— that of
allowing three young gentlemen, at
three o’clock in the morning, to cross
the raging branch “coon fashion” on
the fence.
Matrimonial.
On Thursday morning last at 11
ocloek, in Cuthbert, Ga, at the home
of the brides father,’ was joined in
matrimonial bonds, Mr. A. D. Hogg,
of this place, and Miss Lura Fielder,
daugher of Col. Hebert Fielder. The
ceremony was performed by Rev. J.
B. McGehee, of the M.E. Chrch, aud
iu the presei.ci cfa large number of
friends. After the ceremony was
performed the party partook of a has
ty but elegant lunch, and the happy
couple took tbe train for their future
home at this place, departing from
Cuthbertamid many jo-.ous congrat
ulations. They reached this place
at 12 o’clock on Friday. The bride
is known as a lady lovely and accom
p ished aud the groom possesses a
host of friends, who •••ish him aud
his charming partner a life voyage
full of bliss unalloyed.

Grand Jury Present meats.
The Grand Jurors, chosen and
sworn for the second week of the
August Term of 1879 of Polk Su
perior Court, submit the following
general presentments:
On the first day of our session
committees were appointed to exam
ine and report upon the condition
of the public buildings, and all the
books of the officers of the county.
The books of the Clerk of the Supe
rior Court, Ordinary aud Sheriff are
well kept and properly indexed, so
that no trouble is had in finding any
public document The books of
the Treasurer are well and neatly
kept.
We find the Jail and Court Honse
nicely kept, and commend Sheriff
Clements. With other Grand Ju
ries, we call the attention of the Or-
uinaiy to eft repeated recommends.,
tions of Grand Juriee, to the leak in
the Court House, and respectfully
ask that he have the same stopped.
We call the attention of the Sher
iff to the small new house in the
northwest coi ner of the Court House
inclosure, which will speedily be
come a nuisance unless a sink is
dug in the rear, aud some plan
adopted for disinfecting it.
We recommend that the amount
allowed for feeding prisoners be 30
cents a day instead of 40 cents, as
has been allowed heretofore.
We fisd the books of James West,
Esq., well aud properly kept. Those
of J. D. Enlow show evidences of
carelessness and neglect, in fullness
of detail. No other books have
been submitted for examination.
On the question of roads, we
submit, that they are in better con
dition, all over the county, than
at any time since the war, with the
following exceptions, and to these
we call special attention. We have
report of an old well, uncovered, in
the road between Jackson Griffin’s
and Rockmart, near Griffin’s house,
which we recommend that the Com
missioners of that district cause to
be filled up at once. The bridge
on the new road leading from Shi
loh to A. A. Camp’s should be re
paired at once and made safe. We
call attention to the unsafe condi
tion of the Oppert mill bridge.
We desire that the Ordinary es
tablish and define the line between
Cedtrtown and 1st District on Esom
Hill road, as by a mistake in'the lo
cation of said line, a few hundred
yards of said road is not Worked.
Also, that he establish the line be
tween Polk and Haralson counties
on the road leading to Edwardville,
for the s:me reason.
After a full and thorough decision
of the pauper question, and the
pauper farm, the Grand Jury are
clearly of opinion that'the best dis
position that can be made of said
farm, and the persons comprising
the pauper list is—
1st. To instruct the Ordinary to
employ a competent keeper of said
farm, and employ hands or tenants
to cultivate it, with the aid of such
of the paupers as are able to h. lp.
2nd. To require every pauper to
live on said lartn or have their names
erased from the pauper list.
We recommend that the Ordinary
employ competent medical attention
for the jail and pauper f irm by let
ting it uui to the lowest bidder.
This, in onr deliberate judgment,
after considering the question in its
various form3, is the most advisable
course for the county as well as the
paupers.
The limited time allowed grand
juries in which to examine the vari
ous books of the public officers of
the county, renders it utterly im
possible for them to make such ex
cmination as the public needs de
mand. We therefore appoint M. V.
B. Ake and R. W'.’Everett,whose duty
it shall be to make a thorough exami
nation of the books, accounts and
vouchers of the officers of the county
aud report the results of their labors
to the Grand Jury of the 1st week,
February term, 1830, of the Supe
rior Court. We recommend that
said committee be paid two dol
lars each for every day actually en
gaged in this woik. Said committee
shall be required by the Ordinary to
make oath to attend faithfully and
in as short a time as possible to the
discharge ol said duly.
The Grand Jury respectfully but
most earnestly protest against the
holding of an adjourned term of
this court. Through the blessing
and goodness of a kind Providence,
we have the prospect of unusually
large crops. To gather and prepare
these crops for market, will require
the unremitting effort of onr farmers.
We cannot take a week from this
labor, without much loss to four-
fifths of our people. We there
fore ask that our friends of the legal
profession yield their preferences to
the large majority who would be
hurt by the adjourned term.
In taking leave of his Honor,
Judge J. W. II. Underwood, tbe
Jury congratulate him for his prompt
ness, diliigeDce and fairness on the
bench, aud exp jess the hope that at
no disfctot his distinguished
abilities as a jurist will be so justly
appreciated as will require his servi
ces for the whole State on the bench
of the Supreme Court.
Solicitor General Clements de
mands and receives our ri spect and
confidence as a faithful officer.
To the other officers of court we
are under obligations for courtesies.
We request that these presentments
be published in the Cedartown Ad
vertiser, and the usual amount al
lowed for the same, viz: 85.00.
Respectfully submitted.

Grand Jury Presentments.
We, the Grand Jury chosen and
sworn for the first week of the Feb
ruary Term of Polk^Superior Court,
make the following presentments :
Through committees, we have ex
amined the following books: Ordi
nary’s, Clerk’s, County Treasurer’s
and Sheriff"s, and find them kept
correctly and in good order.
We have examined the dockets of
J. C. Harris and James West,Notaries
Public and Exofficio J. P., and find
them correct.
On examination of the public
buildings we find the Court House
iu good condition except one of the
halls which is used for a wood yard
and storage room for old plunder,
which we recommend be moved out
at once. We find the jail in good
condition, having the appearance of
being neatly and cleanly kept. We
find the stove flue in the cook room
in a condition that we consider en
dangers the building and prisoners.
We therefore recommend that the
Ordinary examine the jail and have
it secured as far a3 possible against
fire from the stove flue.
We find the public roads in good
condition throughout the ciunty,
except the roads in the Cedartown,
Rockmart and Buncombe districts,
which are in bad condition, and we
recommend that the Road Commis
sioners of the several districts have
their roads worked at once according
to law.
We recommend that the Ordinary
build fvur bridges at the follow
ing place's t'Tirst, one over Big Ce
dar creek on the Prior’s Station and
Cedartown road ; the second, over
Little Cedar creek at Oppert’s mill;
the third, over ■ Euliurlee creek at
Deaton’s ford; the fourth bridge,
over Little Eubarlee creek on the
Rockmart and Buchanan road via
Davis’ mills—all of said bridges
to be built after the plan of the
bridge now at Rockmart; the last
named bridge not to cost exceedtng
one hundred dollars.
We recommend that the following
named persons be appointed Nota
ries Public and Exofficio J. P. in
the following militia districts by
Number:
1075th district—L. S. Ledbetter.
1079th district—Henry Edmhnd-

1223rd district—James West.
1072nd district—W. N. Strange.
1073rd district—Thomas Hagan.
1074th district—Thomas M. High
tower.
1076th district—Linton Sparks.
We appoint J. O. Waddell and J.
S. Noyes County School Commis
sioners for the term of four years,
to fill the vacancy of A. Hunting-
ton and J. S. Stubbs, whose times
have expired.

We recommend the assessment of
the following tax for the next fiscal
year:
To build and repair Court House
and Jail, bridges and ferries, or other
public improvements according to
contract, 25 per cent, on State tax.
To pay Sheriff’s, Jailor's or other
officers’ fees that may be legally
entitled to them out of the county,
and to pay Coroner’s fees that may
be due them by the county for hold
ing inquests, and to pay the ex
penses of the bailiffs at courts, non
resident witnesses in criminal cases,
fuel, servant hire, stationery, and
the like, 7 per cent, on the State tax.
To pay the expenses incurred in
supporting the poor of the county,
and as otherwise provided by the
code, 20 per cent.on the State tax.
To pay jurors, 20 per cent, on
State tax.
We have found great difficulty in
assessing county taxes, for the rea
son that we have been unable to de
termine what time the money now
in the treasury was intended to qov.
er. To avoid difficulti s to future
juries, we recommend that the first
Monday iu September be hereafter
recognized .as the begiuuing of the
fiscal year for this county.
We recommend that the Ordinary,
iu case of any deficiency in the pau
per or bridge fund, be authorized to
draw on the county fued to supply
said deficiency for the present fiscal
year.
We have had the proposition before
our body of establishing a county
court under the late laws on that
subject, and after mature delibera
tion do not recommend the estab
lishment of said court.
We recommend that the following
names be dropped from the panper
list: Bridges and wife, Elizabeth
Chapman, J Fincher end W. A.
Hiudmau; and we also recommend
that Emma John son be added to the
pauper list.
We recommend that the Solicitor
General make out an approved list
of fines and forfeitures, and of all
money recovered by him from that
source, and keep the same in book
form.
W# ree mmend that these present
ments be published in the Cedartown
Advertiser, and that tbe editor be
allowed five dollars for the game.

the largest load of freight that has
yet been brought to Cedartown.
There were eight flat care loaded as
full as they could be packed, and as
the little engine puffe l along draw
ing its load, the scene was business
like in the extreme. The load con
sisted of lumber, hay, guano, agri
cultural implements, slate, and goods
in general for onr merchants. This
little road is now paying handsome
ly. and its business is on the increase
constantly. The amount of freight
that daily- comes over it to this point
is evidence enough, also, that the
business of our town is large and
growing larger. The merchants have
begun to receive but few of theii
spring goods as yet.
J. S. Stubbs & Go.,

EAST side: of main street,
