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 arrive at Loyless. 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. Loylbss. 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. . — " owe me come I mean ivliat sa »j ONEX .

Cow U ’ of this place. • 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 ! How to save money—buy your goods at Howard & Ramsaur’s. 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.— Chattanooga Times' This Circus will exhibit in Cartersville, on Wednesday, 20th of this month. Gents Hand made French calf Boots at very low prices at Howard & Ramsaur’s. Howard & Ramsaur have received anoth erjlot of their beautiful Russia Leather Boots for ladies—Miles & Sons make. Go quick before they are all gone. 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.

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.

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.
