Just in the town itself there are Jarge and valuable veins of superior kind# which could be meet profitably Worked. \V e 'Understand that Dr. Best has di.cohered a very excellent bed on his premises, and is now getting up ore and sending it fc> Curtin’s furnace.— Messrs. Howard, Leak and Brewster, dnd sdtiie others own large quantities yj it, sq that a very profitable business might be dyne just here, if a furnace wore erected. There are some estab lishments of this sort in the neighbor hood which buy all the ore brought to them, while at the same time much is sent to Atlanta where it is readily re ceived and used. What hinders the owners of this property, or some other who has an eye to business, from Start ing a furnace at Cartersville ? The ore is abundant and can be easily procur ed, and if manufactured into iron just Ifere, would certainly pay the proprie tors quite as well if not better, than it dues, at Atlanta. Much of the expense would be avoided, and we see no good reason why this enterprise should not at once demand attention. It v euid pay the proprietors, benefit the owners the mines, attract labor, increase pdpuiation, and trade, and add to the prosperity of the town. Will not some action be taken in the premises, and who will move in the matter?

Other roads in the country are prospering, and paying regularly about 8 per cent., to the share, as dividends, and we see no rea son why this road might not do the same, under a proper management.— It does pay, and it pays well in one respect, the officers ail got their salaries and high ones too, and this is all. The stockholders certainly have some inter est in the : matter, and would like to hayc some remuneration for their in vv.vui :<t. Tell us what is the matter, and wky is it that our capital in this rcrid is to us a dead thing? Other mlrbnds were destroyed by the war, and other regions wasted as well as the one through which this road runs, and they are now doing well and pay ing well, but this road, notwithstand ing the revival of trade, atid its splen did condition, and its immense busi ness, is paying nothing —nothing only to the officers. One Dividend since the war has been declared of 5 per cenh, and the money borrowed upon which to make it. Tell us, Mr- Wicks, what in the future may we hope, and what for the present may we expect ? Will Any more dividends be made, and . when, yes, y-hen, or are we to be put off, from year to year, with a little re port and empty pockets ? Is the stock worth anything, and how much, and if n,ot what is the reason ? The stock holders in this region desire to know, that they may act advisedly as to their share in the road.

THE MURDER IN OGLETHORPE. Assassination of Col. Cieo. W. Fish, oTM&con Count 3. 111 our Thursday !s edition we pub lished a. statement from the Macon Telegraph in regard to the assassina tion of Col. George W. Fish, of Macon county. This account was meagre aud unsatisfactory, and the friends of the murdered man in Savannah have wait ed with some anxiety for the particu lars of the outrage. Col. Fish was a brother of Dr. John D. Fish, of this city, one of our most prominent and successful physicians. The Americas Republican, in giving an account of the affair, says that the people of that section are horrified at the cowardly and brutal murder, which occurred in Oglethorpe last Monday night. The Republican is en abled through the services of a well known citizen of Americus, to give the details of the terrible tragedy, gather ed \t the scene of its occurrence. Col. Fish, returning from a trip to Savannah, had come down from Macon on Monday night’s train, reaching Ogle thorpe about one o’clock. Getting off at the depot of the latter place, he gave his bundle of books to a negro man, named Jacob, and started walking home, followed immediately by the ser vant Proceeding towards his residence, he had readied the heart of town, and was passing up the left sidewalk along side of the Court House, when a gun was fired at him from the door of this building, opening immediately on ihe street, the slut taking effect in the left side of the face and neck, and in dicting a most ghastly and gaping wound, from which Col. Fish died at once. He fell foward on his right side, towards the outer edge of the side walk, evidently never moving after he touch'd the ground; for liis arms were lying one by his side and the other on his brea'st, his satchel nearly just where it had slipped from his hand, and his heaver on the sidewalk where it had tumbled from his head. His overcoat was buttoned up close to the chin, and nothing about him had been disturbed in any way, although he had on a gold watch, money about his person, and other valuables, plain ly showing that the lurking assassin, who had fired the fatal shot, sought no spoils and profits, but human blood and human life. The servant was walking, according to lus own account, to the left and a little in the rear of Col. Fish, and when the gun fired, dodged down, squatting, and then turned and ran off, frightened. He at once woke up some gentlemen sleeping not far off", who found the body ns above describ ed, the warm blood gushing profusely from the several arteries, and the last faint breath fluttering on his dying .lips. This assassination is as astonishing to the community in which Col. Fish has long lived, universally respected and honored, as the details of its per petration prove it atrocious. A man, polite and gentlemanly towards all, making no enemies ever and having no malignant foes, has beeen waylaid and murdered in the centre of a peace ful town and oil its most frequented thoroughfare, and none can ascribe the reason why. Thomas P. Lloyd, Esq., Solicitor General of the Southwestern Circuit, and John D. CarteiyHsq., District At torney of the Court of which Col. Fish was Judge, were in Oglethorpe yester day to represent the State m the preliminary trial of a negro, named Henry Stubbs, who has been arrested, and is charged with this crime. It seems that Henry confesses to have been at the Court House the night of the murder. On his shoe heels were iron taps, and the right one makes a peculiar track. Thh track was dis covered leading from another door of the Court House, made by a party evidently running, was followed, meas ured, identified as Henry’s and indeed admitted by him to be veritably his owu. The ease against him rests thus far upon this circumstantial evidence. The gun wads were found near the body, and buck-shots were cut out of the shade trees near by, but no gun was found iu Henry’s possession. Very grave suspicion points to a known white man as the instigator of tho deed, for whom a warrant has been taken out. The case was to have- been investi gated yesterday, the magistrates before whom the fnvestigation is to be conducted having grunted a continu ance of the prosecution. We trust that the matter may be thoroughly sifted, and that the murderer will be brought to speedy justice. [<ShiJ.

The extensive use of these watches for the last fifteen years by Railway Conductors, Engineers and Expressmen, the most exact ing of watch-wearers, has thoroughly de monstrated the strength, steadiness, durabil ity and accuracy of the Waltham watch.— To satify that class in all these respects, is to decide the question as to the real value of these time-keepers. More than 500,000 of these watches arc now speaking for themselves in the pockets of the people—a proof and a guar antee of their superiority over all others. The superior organization and great ex tent of the Company’s Work's at Waltham, enables them to produce watches at a price which renders competition futile, and those who buy any other watch merely pay 25 to 50 per cent, more for tlieir watches than is necessary. These time-pieces combine every improve ment that a long experience has proved of real practical use. Having had the refusal of nearly every invention in watch-making originating in this country or in Europe, only those were finally adopted which severq testing by the most skillful artisans in our works, and long use ou the part of the public, demonstrated to*fee essential to correct and enduring time keeping. Among the many improvements we would particularize: The invention and use of a centre pinion of peculiar construction, to prevent damage to the tra n by the breakage of mainsprings, is original with the American Watch Company, who, having had the refusal of all other contrivances, adopted Fogg's patent pinion as being best and faultless. Hardened and tempered hair-springs,now universally admitted by WatchmaJters to be the best, arc used in all grades of Waltham Watches. All Waltham Watches have dust-proof caps, protecting the movement from dust, and lessening the necessity, of the frequent cleaning necessary in other watches. Our new patent, stem-wind r, or keyless watch is already a decided success, and a groat improvement on auy stem-winding watch in the American market, and by far the cheapest watch of it* quality nov/ pffer ed to the public. To those living in por tions of the United States where watch makers do not abound, watches with the above mentioned improvements which tend to insure accuracy, cleanliness, durability and convenience, must prove invaluable. The t rademarks of the various styles made by the Company are as follows: American Watch Cos., Waltham, Mass. Amu. Watch Cos. Waltham, Mass. American Watch Co.j Crescent St., Wal tham. Mass.
