Re Guided by What You Know.
There is an old proverb which says,
“Experience is the safest guide.” To this
guide the sick and ailing naturally turn
when casting about for the means of relief.
They inquire what a medicine has done for
others, before they adopt it themselves. Os
all the remedies and preventives in use,
Hostetter'a Stomach Bitters meets the test
most triumphantly, hence its immense pop
ularity and vast sales. The sufferer from
indigestion is sure to find someone among
hi3 friends who has been cured of that ail
ment by the famous vegetable stomachic.
The victim of fever and ague, liver com
plaint, constipation, nervous prostration, or
general debility, has only to make inquiry
in the neighborhood where he resides in or
der to discover what this standard restora
tive has effected in cases similar to his own.
In the published testimony to its merits he
wifi find a volume of proofs of its sanitary
•properties, which it is impossible far his
common sense to resist. He tries it, and
the effect it produces on his system adds
another to the host of witnesses in its favor
Thus, its reputation, founded on faets, not
assertions, continually grows and spreads.
Charlatans and impostors, some of them
mere local tricksters, and others who take
a somewhat wider range, attempt to thrust
into the hands and down the throats of in
valids, their haphazard concoctions, as sub
stitutes for the tonic which for so many
years lias been a medicinal staple through
out the United States, Spanish America,
Canada, and the West Indies, but only suc
ceed to a very limited extent, In this rea
soning age, the people, having ascertained
what is really Reserving of their confidence,
decline “running after strange gods.”
Merited Distinction. —The well
known Groton Junction, on the great
thoroughfare of the Northern Lines
to Boston, has ceased to be. With
a large and increasing population,
proud as well as prosperous, its eiti
zens, in mass | meeting assembled,
have voted to change the name of
their town to “Ayer” —after one of
the best known men in America, Dr.
J. G. Ayer, of Lowell—and the Leg
islature of Massachusetts has enacted
that decision into law. We commend
their choice, for not only is the name
short and distinctive, but Dr. Ayer’s
Medicines have made it gratefully
known to the ends of the earth. Prob
ably no living man has carried relief
to such countless multitndes of the
sick as he, and this high honor, from
his neighbors, tells the estimation in
which he is held by those who know
him—Bristol Time.
If you desire never to look old,
keep your heart young, and let it
glow in your face.

(COMMUNICATED.)
THE NEXT GOVERNOR GENERAL.
W* T. WOFFORD.
Govenor Bullock having resigned,
and had Benjamin Conly, President
of the Senate, installed, with the ex
pectation that he would serve out
the balance of B’b term, it was no
doubt expected and desired by
Bullock that the present Legislature
would attempt to eject Conley, and
; install into the office, as acting Gov
ernor, the President who might be
elected by the present Senate ; but
I am gratified to learn that in this
he will be disappointed. In the
event that’ an attempt should be
made to eject Conley, he would
doubtless call upon the President of
the United States to suppress the
rebellion against the legally consti
tuted authorities of the State. It
will be a source of congratulation to
every plover of peace and good order
to learn Jthal the Legislature will
adopt the only prudent course, in
;my judgment, that presents itself,
jto relieve us from the dilema in
j which we are placed—that is, pass
ing an act, as early as practicable,
ordering an election for Governor,
to fill out the unexpired term of
Bullock, which is about one year.
I presume the election will bo or
dered to come off in a very* short
time, and it behooves the people—the
tax-payers —to cast about and de
termine who is to be the incumbent
of the Executive chair for the next
twelve months. That tho finances
of the State have been badly manag
! ed under Bullock’s rule—frauds com
mitted and wholesale stealing going
j on, none can deny. The new Gov
ernor will have au arduous duty to
perform in ferretting out the rascali
ties which have been perpetrated
upon the people of Georgia for the
! last three or four years. He should
|be a man of talent; cool and calm
judgment; free from passion
and prejudice, and possessed of
moral courage, that no clique nor
ring could move him from the path
of duty, and above all, of unimpeach
able integrity, and possessed of the
confidence of his fellow-eit zens. I
believe, Messrs. Editors, I may’ say
1 know, we have just such a man
in our midst. It is not my opinion
alone, but that of thousands of oth
ers, that General William T. Wof
ford, of your place, fills the bill. I
have known him intimately’for many
years, and had frequent occasion to
remark that “if there were any hon
est men living, General W. was one
of them.” He is too well known in
this section to require any eulogy
from my feeble pen, or any attempt
to portray, as they deserve, his many’
excellent qualities. He fills to per
fection the requirements of Jeff rson
in a public, office, he is capable,
faithful, and strictly honest.
General Wofford is a native Geor
gian—to the manor born. Born
and reared, I believe, in Habersham
county. After he had completed his
education, he adopted the law as his
profession, and located in the then
prosperous and beautiful village of
Cassville—near a quarter of a cen
tury ago, when he was quite a youth.
Soon after his location at Cassville,
the Mexican troubles broke out, and
during the w’ar he raised a company
of cavalry and repaired to Mexico,
where he greatly’ distinguished him
self in an engagement with an over
whelming force of the enemy. Af
ter the close oftke war, he returned
to his home at Cassville, and re
sumed the practice of his profession.
Soon after—in 1849, if I am not
mistaken—he was put in nomination
by the Democratic party of the
county, for the Legislature, and at
the ensuing election was elected by r
an unprecedented large vote. Al
though quitcL.a..youjh, he soon took
a position among the most useful
legislators of that body. He was
again put in nomination by his par
ty, for the Legislature, in 1851, and
was elected by an overwhelming
vote. He served out that term to
the entire satisfaction of his con
stituents, and could have been re
elected at all subsequent elections,
had he but consented to have his
name run ; for he has been regarded,
for over twenty y’ears, as the most
popular man in the county. He
was elected Clerk of the House of
Representatives at the organization
of the Legislature, in November,
1853, by au overwhelming majority,
the duties of which office he filled to
the entire satisfaction of the House,
and with his usual fidelity.
I do not recollect that General
Wofford filled any official position,
after his term of Clerk of the House
expired, until 1861. Having deter
mined to practice his profession, he
declined to seek any public position,
until a convention was called by the
Legislature in the fall of 1860, to
convene in the ensuing January, to
determine upon tho proper course
for Georgia to pursue upon the elec
tion of of Abraham Lincoln to the
Presidency, on a sectional issue. It
will be recollected that our people
were greatly excited at that time,
having well grounded fears that their
peculiar institution would be se
riously interfered with by the in
coming administration. Most men
of excitable temperaments were for
immediate secession, not stopping to
count the cost, or properly reflecting
what would be the probable result
of a contest waged for the mainte
nance of an institution against which
the nearly entire civilized world was
opposed. There were another class
of men, equally patriotic but more
cool and deliberate, whose good
sense and reasoning led them to
; come to a different conclusion.
Prominent among that class was
General Wofford. He was urged,
and consented, against his wishes,
to become a candidate for the Con
vention of 1861. A* was well known,
he opposed secession, and 6ome of
his speeches delivered during that
canvass could not have been more
prophetic had the veil been removed
from the dark vista of the future.
He was elected, receiving as usual,
the highest vote of any candidate in
the county. He repaired to the Con
vention, and cast his vote against
the ordinance of secession, and
though the measure wa3 carried
against his better judgment, he
yielded, as a good citizen, to the
voice of the majority, and determin
ed to stand by his native State, let
the consequences be to him what
they might. His clear and cool
judgment convinced him that war
was inseparable from secession, and
after the Convention had passed the
ordinance of secession, he favored
all measures proposed in that body
to place the State in a condition to
meet the contest that he felt sure
was coming. In April, 1861, Gov.
Brown called out what then was
known as tho second Brigade, and the
company’ officers repaired to Camp
Brown, for the purpose of being
drilled, and electing field officers for
the Brigade. General Wofford was
elected, without opposition, Colonel
of the first Regiment of that Brigade.
In June following, the entire Brigade
was called into camps at Big Shanty,
and after being drilled there until
about the first of August, were sent
to Virginia, and turned over to the
Confederate Government. General
Wofford’s Regiment was then known
as the 18th Georgia, and there was
probably no Regiment in the Con- j
federate army which saw more hard j
service, or more highly distinguish
ed itself in nearly every hard fought
battle in Virginia. In 1862 or ’3,
General Wofford was promoted to
Brigadier General, and I hazard the
assertion that no officer, among the
long and noble list of Confederate
heroes, showed more cool, daring and
determined courage than General
Wofford. He served the Confedera-'
cy faithfully until about January !
1865, when he paid a hasty visit to
his home. Sherman’s array had de
vastated this whole country the pre
ceding summer and fall. A great
many people had refugeed, and those
who remained -were in the most
straitened circumstances to obtain
supplies, being mostly women and
children, and to add to their distress,
there were a great many Confeder
ate soldiers who had returned horns
and formed themselves into disor
ganized companies—some of them
committing depredations, and con
suming the scanty supplies that re
mained for the women and children.
There was no law or order in the
country—no courts performing their
functions—no civil officers discharg
ing the duties of their office. The
whole of upper Georgia was in a ,
state of anarchy. This was the con
dition of affairs when General Wof
ford returned home in January, 1865.
His deep sympathy for the oppress
ed and distressed soon decided the
course he would pursue. He hasten
ed back to Richmond, and asked
permission of the Confederate au
thorities to bring his Brigade to this
section, which was refused, but upon
his persistent entreaties he was per
mitted to return and the command of
the military forces in Northern Geor
gia was assigned to him. Upon as
suming command he issued orders
directing alt soldiers within the de
partment assigned to him, to repair
at once to Atlanta, which, with few
exceptions, they did with alacrity.
When the General returned here to
take command, he was told by many
of the oldest and best citizens that it
would be almost impossible for him
to cause to assemble all the disorgan
ized companies scattered throughout
his department, and to restore order.
But to the surprise of nearly
every one, he, by his kind, concilia
ting and determined course, soon
had perfect order restored through
out his department, thus showing
administrative abilities of the high
est order. He continued in this
command until the surrender of
the forces of Lee and Johnston, and
surrendered his forces at Kingston
on the 12th day of May, 1865, being
the last Confederate command sur
renderd east of the Mississippi.
After the surrender General Wof
ford returned to his peaceful and
quiet home, a few miles from Car
tersville, and soon after removed to
Cartersville and opened a law office
and resumed his practice. Those
who know the General, .know that he
is one of the kindest hearted men in
the world, and his sympathies easily
affected by the suffering and distress
of others, and that no personal sac
rifice is too great for him to make to
relieve their wants and supply their
needs. Though he found nothing
upon his return to subsist himself
and his family. There was a wide
field presented here for the exercise
of his charitable feelings. During
the summer of 1865, he devoted
nealry his entire time in obtaining
supplies for the needy. His office
was thronged, day after day, with
the needy, and no difference how
humble or indigent the applicant
for his assistance might be, he ren
dered all the assistance in his pow’er,
and there are thousands who will re
member his benevolent efforts in
their behalf, with gratitude, to their
dying day. A Convention being
called by the then provisional Gov
ernor of the State to assemble at
Milledgeville in November, 1865, it
wa« the almost unanimous wish of
the people of Bartow county, that
Gen. Wofford should be one of their
delegates, but he peremptorily de
clined to be a candidate. That Con
▼ention adopted an ordinance to
) bring on an election, soon after its
adjournment, for Gorernor, members
! of Congress, &c. SoYneofhis friends
in that Convention took tbe liberty
of anouncing, through the papers,
bis name as a candidate to represent
the Seventh Congressional District
in Congress. He could not decline :
and he was elected by an overwhel
ming majority—approaching to
unanimity,—although he had several
opponents. Gen. W. repaired to
Washington city and is well recol
lected, he nor none of his col
i leagues were admitted to their seats.
! Here again Gen. Wofford showed his
unselfishness. Having been a Con
federate General, he thought that
might be an obstacle to his admission,
and he resigned.
Those who are famliar with the
condition of this County in 1865,
will recollect that there was but a
meagre crop made that year—nearly
all thejlargest farmerss having refu
geed, did not return in time to make
a crop. Hence during the next year
I (1866) there was likely to be as
great a scarcity as there had been
, during the previous year. Gen.
Wofford repaired to Washington
some time in the year 1866, and by
his conservative views and manly
| bearing and truthful representations
of affairs in the section, made many
friends amongst all parties, and hav
j ing secured their confidences he in
duced Congress to adopt a resolu
tion requiring the agents of the
Freedman’s bureau in this sectiou to
issue rations to the destitute, which
was done, to the great relief of
| thousands, who, without this assis
, tance would have to suffered.
Gen. Wofford is not an office
| seeker, and would scorn to go into
! a scramble for the spoils of office,
jHe believes that the office should
seek the man, and not the man the
office. I am aware that in these
days of profligacy that if a man does
not seek an office he is not likely to
get it, yet after the)sad experience
with the Governor who Isas so re
cently abdicated that those who have j
the office to bestow should seek the
man, and be certain that he is an !
honest man, such a one as we all !
know General|Wofford to be- Gener
al Wofford is a life-long democrat,
and if a candidate is nominated by
the democratic party, we hope they
consider the fitness of General Wof
ford for the position. There are va
rious reasons why they should noin- j
inate him. He is a consistent and j
sound democrat, he is a clear
headed man, a large
share of common sense, he is pro
verbial for his unselfishness, benev
olence and strict honesty ; and al
though he was as brave an officer as
there was in the Confederate arm}’
and done as hard fighting, he would
probably be less obnoxious to the
general Government than any man
whom the party could select, on ac
count of his known coservative views,
and his aversion to sectional pred
judices. It is believed that if Gen.
Wofford should be elected Govern
or, that the present incumbent would
turn over the office to him without a
struggle, and that there would then
be no danger of military rule in this
State. It is well known that he feeU
a deep interest in the development
of our every interest—mineral, agri
cultural, and manufacturing—and
desires to see the necessary labor,
skill and capital brought into our
State for that purpose. Place Gen
eral Wofford in the Gubernatorial
Chair, and capitalist will have no
fears to bring them capital into the
State.
Let the Democracy place General
Wofiord in nomination for Governor,
and it will produce one universal
shout of rejoicing amongst the masses
of the people throughout Upper Geor
gia, interrupted only by the occasion
al croakiDg of a few broken-down or
disappointed politicians—for they
know him to be a brave, magnani
mous, and, better than all, an honest
man—the noblest work of God.
In speaking of General Wofford as
I have, in connection with the office of
Governor, Ido so without his knowl
edge. It is from a deep interest I feel
in the welfare of the State that I urge
the name of one who possesses the
capacity, and in my humble judgment,
every requisite qualification for the
position in which I desire —alone for
the good of the State—to see him
placed. North Georgian.
