The Show is Coming. —Another big ani
mal and circus show is to be here just be
fore Christmas ! Privately we are opposed
to all such things, though wo may go to
see the animals ; and it may be necessary
to help take care of the children while they
look at the men and horses aud things !
The little folks all have a curiosity to see
the show just one time, and it looks hard
not to gratify a curiosity so natural and
reasonable. But if we have any doubts
about the propriety of attending, wo had
better not go; and it costs something to
indulgo in such amusements, and there are
soveral ways in which we can make a more
profitable investment.
2300 lbs White Lead on hand and to

Suspicious. —Our clever young friend,
Joel Conyers, was 3ceu going in the direc
tion of Stilesboro, iu the snow, one evening
last week, and has not since been heard oi
at “these head quarters.” He is one of
those thoughtless youths mentioned in our
last issue, and we feel concerned for his
welfare.

Oca Scuools. —Cartersville has had
quite a number of excellont schools during
tho present year. Our friend, Ronald
Johnson, has had a fine school and we be
lieve has given general satisfaction in teach
ing “tho young idea how to shoot.” Young
Attaway is also an accomplished young
man, and bids fair to succeed in hisjlionora
ble and useful vocation. Misses Safford aud
Moon have had a very interesting school of
misses, and their unremitting labors have
been appreciated by tho community.
There have also been other smaller schools
jn town, all of which have contributed to
the general good. There is no better evi
dence of the prosperity of our place than
the lively interest which is manifested up
on the subject of education. Cartersville
affords superior educational advantages,
aud wo ought to have institutions of leani
ng, which would rival any in the State.
I propose to sell any thing in my line at
Atlanta figures and freight—Give me a trial
and bo convinced that I mean what I say.

Show! On Thursday evening of las
week we were visited by a beautiful show
er of snow, which continued to fall until
late at night. On Thursday morning fal
lowing, the ground was covered about three
inches deep, and the wide spread carpet of
white, presented a fine appearance. It is
unusual to see so much snow so early in
the season, in this latitude.
Show Balling ! The boys in town en
joyed rare sport last week, snow balling
each other and other freedmen. They
would attack one of “the nations wards,”
and if he proved to be sulky they would let
him alone, but if they could succeed in get
ting one on the wing they’would make him
“git” in double quick time. No “Ku-Klux
outrage” intended.
Our Bird Hunt, and Its Moral. —We
took our net, meunted our horse and went
in quest of partridges the other day. W e
■oon found a fine covey, set our net, and
after’a good deal of skillful maneuvering )
them in ; but io ! when
r ?Lughtth. prize was within our grasp
saw them quietly walking out at the
other end ! Nothing daunted, however, we
examined the net, found that the mice had
out some of the meshes, hastily repaired
the breach, set it again, and made another
drive, and got them in once more, and a
cain’saw them go out, as first! That
was too bad 1 But like Robert Bruce’s spi
dfr we mended our net again, 8* it, and
caught two of them, after ai.
The mora! taught in theJjjot. *nt
is this- When you undertake
prize, do not conclude “ J° U ™ aJiy l
fail to acco “ P - 3 nothing like perserver
trying, for thei
ance. .

Answer to a Correspondent.—An old
farmer friend wants to know if we think
the weather is cold enough to kill hogs ?
We reply that we think it is cold enough to
kill poor ones, but that fat ones are in no
danger of dying from that cause.
Howard & Ramsaur s customers get the
same goods at lower prices than any oth
er merchants.
How to Manage’em.— We asked a friend
of ours, who|runs a farm near this place, and
works freedmen, how he managed to make
them work when they were disposed to be
idle ? “why,” said he “I holler at ’em just
as I did before they were free:” “But,”
said he, if they don’t mind you what do
you do then ?” Holler agin,” he replied !

II AxGHT & Co’s CiRCUS, MuSiUM AND
Menagerie.—This Southern institution,
since visiting us one year since, has won a
brilliant national reputation, and achieved
a glorious pecuniary triumph. It has been
largely augmented in its arenic and zoo
logical departments, and now ranks among
the first exhibitions of this country and
Europe. The papers all over the South
teem with excellent praises of its merits,
and the Eastern .nd Provincial press are
unanimous in their lavish commendation.
The Waterville (Maine) Mail says “the
company gave the best satisfaction. They
met all their promises ; showing a superior
lot of horses, first class performers, and au
entertainment more free from objectionable
features than any seen here for years,”
This is saying a great deal for a perfor
mance after it is over.
The programme for this day of exhibi
tion will be a s follows : A grand balloon
ascension will be made from the lot near
the pavillion. Prof. Itenno will go up
clouds, carried on his monster
balloon “ Tallulah.” The process of in
flation is new, hot air being substituted for
the old plan of gas. All can see the meth
od used by the discomfitted French to carry
messages over the heads of the victorious
Prussians. Harry Wambold, the celebra
ted rope walker, will promenade from the
grouud to the top of the centre pole, on a
single wire, and return. The names of the
artists of the arena connected with this ex
hibition are so well known to the public
(hat it is not neoessary to more than refer
to them. The company is large, well se
lected, and of excellent material. A thrill
ing scene is enacted with wild animals at
each performance. M’lle Minnie Wells,
who was so torn and mangled in (he Bow
ery Theatre, last year, by the celebrated
lion “ Prince,” assisted by Gustave Berg,
will enter the den and feed these beasts of
most ferocious nature. Everybody will go
to see this great arena and zoological exhi
bition, and behold the balloon ascension,
which takes place at one o’clock in the
afternoon—and immediately afterwards the
aerial pedestrianism of Mr. Wambold.—

Hints For tux Season. —Make good
fires, wear thick-soled boots or shoes, pay
your old debts, if you can, and make no
new ones, subscribe for the Standard <&
Express, and fear no evil; and, young
man , our “devil” says don’t stay up too
late when you go courting, for fuel costs a
heap.
Go to Howard & Ramsau**s for the best
country made jeans in town. They have

A dollar gets its utmost value, at How
ard & Ramsaur’s.
Encouraging. —Ag will be seen by re
ferring to the local columns of this week’s
paper, the matrimonial market is brisk.
<* Who will be next?” is a problem some
what difficult of solution. ‘* O, when will
my time come!” is the exclamation of many
a heart, wo suppose. We would probably
take more interest in this mat ter, if we had
any assurance that the Printers would not
be forgotten in the future as they have been
in the past. We think there are instances
in which we could reader va'uable assist
ance in making matches. Some of them,
however, might be lucifcr ones, but we will
endeavor ,to have them all to be parlor
matches. Office hours at all times.
Howard & Ramsaur keeps the best #tock
of Leather and sell at the lowest prices.
Dimensions of Our Jail and Jailor’s
House. —We give the following information
for the benefit of those who have never
seen our new jail and jailor’s house, so that

HAIGHT & CO’S
EMPIRE CITY
CIRCUS, MUSEUM. MENAGERIE
AND
Aimoioicement Extraordinary.
A little less than one year ago, when this grand enterprise was organized in Atlanta,
Ga., many sagacious people predicted tailure in its infancy: but the unprecedented suc
cess crowning it everywhere it has been, has satisfied them of the error of their judg
ment. No exhibition on tho road has given greater satisfaction, and none have achieved
as great a degree of popularity. Neither labor nor money has been spared to make it
the most extensive and choice exhibition on the road, and tho almost da'ly tremenduous
audiences applauding tho feats of the different artists have served to stimulate the man
agement to even greater efforts. Throughout the Middle States and New England, the
Dominions of New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, Gape Breton and
New Fouqdlaad, there ha3 been one voice from the press and public as to the iperits in
trinsic of this mammoth enterprise. Messrs. HAIGHT # CO. feel an excusable pride in
thus referring to their repeatod triumphs and the praise of the world which has but one
verdict as to the high character and superiority of this first class arenic and zoological
combination.
TWO MAMMOTH PAVILLIONS.
The Menagerie and Museum in one, and the Circus is the other -so those who desire
to see the creation’s wonders and the complete zoological collection only, can be accom
modated without coming in contact with the Arenic entertainment. One price of admis
sion, however, entitles the holder of the ticket to witness both!
