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. Two beautiful narrow gauge rail way locomotives were on exhibition the Atlanta fair. They are little beauties, and win the admiration of everybody. Their names are Gov. Bullock, Jr., and H. 3. Kimball, Jr., and are for the Cartersville and Van Wert Railroad. (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.
