p ritE semi-weekly express JAS. \Y AT r II Alims nml SAM L IT. SMITH l l ’TORH AVU thoprtktors. CARTERSVILLE, OA., MCFT. 21st, 1871. *’“*“ I > roilamall«n AdverlUing. Some of our Into exchanges congrat ulate Gov. Bullock in that His Excel lency is confining the publication cf his Proclamations to public Journals in the vicinity of the places where crime is committed, and where the of fender is known, and likely to be ap prehended, instead of broad-casting them over the State, and placing them in journals distant fre m the scene of offense and not likely to be read in the region where the offender lives. If the Governor ever gave any evi dence of such improvement, we are sorry to say that the fevm has return ed upon him again, and he is once more at his old work. The Cartcrs ville Standard, a (paper published in this town,) under its column headed “Official Advertising,” in its last week’s issue, publishes three more pf these precious documents, in relation to crimes committed in the counties of Dougherty, Chatham and Muscogee, hundreds of miles distant from this place, and all lying in the lower por tion of the State, and it would, per haps, not be very far from the mark, were w r e to venture the assertlbn that there are not, to-day, in each of these counties, three subscribers apiece to the Standard —outside of its exchang es. The same might be said of many other Proclamation papers. We are glad to see any printer or publisher fairly succeed in his laborious, useful and poorly paid vocation, but we can not refrain once more denouncing this action upon the part of the Governor, as unwise, and inrproper, and doing no possible good to any human being on earth, and only operating as a bo nus to the paper which may, at the expense of the people, put these Proc lamations in its columns. Thousands of money are thus taken out cf the pockets of our poor, hard-working peo ple, who need every dollar of it to sup port their families, and at one Execu tive dab, put into the pockets of thebe Executive favorites, who in these pub lications, render no service to the State. We are glad to see our old friends of the Standard do well, and hope they will reap a rich income from a legitimate printing business, but we do think that it is hard that Pie people of this county, and this re gion, and this State, should be, in this Executive way, compelled by the Gov ernor, to put their hands in their pock ets, and take from their wives, and children, their money, the hard-earn ings of their daily labor, and pay it over to these Proclamation papers, tho Standard among them. Such a course on the part of the Governor, may, and will, help his favorites while living, and buy tombstones for dead editors, but if carried far enough, will starve the tax-payer, while it inevita bly simply w r astes the public money. While writing the above, that ster ling paper, the Atlanta Constitution, by Saturday’s mail, comes in, and from it we clip the following on the same subject: “a WORD 10 GOV. BULLOCK. The action of Governor Bullock in confining the advertisement of that Hall county proclamation to the papers t f that section and its surrounding country, has elicited commendation from a number of our worthiest State journals that have been in sturdy op position to the Governor. “We call Governor Bullock’s atten tion to this fact. The remonstrances of the press against wrong aeto of the administration are the outgivings of the people, whose benefit and good opinion the administration should seek to obtain. When the wishes of the people are contemptuously ignored, to say nothing of the law violated, no State administration can expect to be sustained. The officers of the govern ment are but the servants of the peo ple, and should bear themselves as t . eh. “We urge the Governor to continue this right reform.” If, as slated above, “the remonstran ces of the press against the wrong acts of the administration are the out givings of the people, whose benefit and good opinion the administration should seek to obtain,” then it would necessarily follow that ary Democratic administration would give instant heed to the expressed will of the people, and every Democratic press should urge his v acquiesence with that will Here then, can be no dispute. If it be the duty of the Governor to give heed to the v ishes of the people, it is also the duty of the Democratic press to give that will expression. If, however, the Governor, influenced by his Radical policy, shall disregard all such remon strances, and plunge his hands down ' deep mto the Treasury of the State in defiance of the people and tire good of the State, it is still no less the dutv of the press to oppose such reckless eqinueriug of tb ir uieaus, and let ‘he people know what becomes of the i. x money they have paid to the offi of too law. The Democratic press should keep aloof from any participa tion in this plundering of the public, and leave it to those, whose vocation it is. * We say then that the publication of; these Proclamations in Up-Country journals, which have no circulation, and it may be have never even been heard of by the people of the lower part of the State, is a wrong to the whole people, wrong in itself, wrong in the governor, wrong in the. paper publishing them, and should receive, j as it will receive, the condemnation of every man in the community, who thinks of it for a moment. We conclude these remarks with the following communication to the paper above mentioned: “OX ADVERTISING GOV. BULLOCK 8 PROCLA MATIONS. “Editor Constitution : I have found but one fault with your warfare : against the advertising of Bullock’s | proclamations—the heat of battle is fought at the wrong time. “Money is the root of many evils; and if there is anything in the world that 1 can cramp the moral powers of the I soul, and shut out everything else but self, it is this mighty agent. Do not, therefore, open batteries when the money bag is sent out, but wait until all is quiet and calm, then the judg ment may be reached. “I do not charge corruption, treach ery, or that for gold any have sold themselves, but there is a secret, silent influence that follows the gingle of a dollar, that your brethren of the press have compromised themselves so far as to be beyond your recovering when the spell is strongest. “The subject is a simple one, and needs no moral philosopher to seek for hidden truths to make more plain. “Is the advertising in express obe dience of law ? is it an implication of law absolutely necessary for public weal ? or is it by implication of law for partisan purposes ? If in express ed obedience of law, or necessary and by implication of law, it is not wrong. If for partisan purposes and useless, it is wrong, and papers engaging in it are parties to the plunder, and should not deserve public confidence. “The conclusion is easily drawn. “If it is the duty of the papers to protect the public interest, is it not as much their duty to “raise the wind” when the money is uselessly lavished upon them, as upon other parties ? Ii they fail is it not sufficient evidence of moral depravity ? You have argued the questions well. The people are with you to a man. Respectfully, Champolion. Since writing the above, our atten tion has been attracted by the follow ing, on the same subject, from the Savannah Republican: “reward. “Bullock gets up the following lo cal. We find it floating around in the proclamation papers: “Whereas, Official information has been received at this Department, that a murder was committed in the county of Chatham on or about the 20th of February last, upon the body of Chavis Davis, by one Richard Grant, as is alledged, and that said Grant has fled from justice: 1 have thought proper, therefore, to issue this my proclamation, hereby of fering a reward of Five Hundred Dol lars for the apprehension and delivery of said Grant, with proof sufficient to convict, to the Sheriff of said county and State, in order that he may be brought to trial for the offense with which he stands charged. “The beauty of the above contribu tion to the contribution papers, is that there has been no such occurrence in this county. The joke only cost the State about S7OO. The parties above alluded to must be negroes, as w'hite men’s lives are only valued by Bullock at about SIOO apiece.” The lute Agricultural Conven tion at Macon Georgia. We gather from a corrsepondent of the Griffin Star, the following propo sition, adopted by said Convention, which will be read with interest, by our readers. Among the numerous important measures brought under consideration by the Convention were the following: A resolution was adopted, asking the Legislature for the passage of a -“stock law,” whereby owners of stock be com pelled to keep their stock fenced up, or doing away with the necessity of the general fence system, only in so far as will be required to restrain the usu al roving and trespassing proclivities of stock. This measure is of the very first and last importance to landown ers and formers, of by far the most valuable and extensive portion of Geor gia. The attentive or commonplace observer has only to look around him, and think awhile without prejudice, and he will clearly see the value of shell a law. It was clearly demonstra-' ted by very responsible, intelligent members in the discussion of this sub ject, That to keep stock up with prop er attention, was far more profitable in every eense, than the present plan of “turning them out to grass.” It was forcibly shown that the cost of fencing in the State far exceeded the total value of all the stock of every de scription in the State. That the'sear city and unreliability pf labor, and in many cases, insufficiency of timber, would render it utterly impracticable to continue general fencing, even a few years longer. There were several attempts to defeat, but not one -solid reason or argument advanced against this measure before the Convention. The passage: A law taxing dogs 25 cents each, through a committee, will be asked at the next Logisiuteure. This measure is of no mean impor tance, as the result of its adoption will be two-fold, first to get rid of a use less, pestilent race of curs and other breeds, and thus afford security to sheep raising, besides a considerable revenue to the State, diminishing oth er taxes. A plan was inaugurated whereby, it is hoped that the State, through the Legislature, in making the necessary arrangements, may secure the benefit of the appropriation made by Congress to establish an Agricultural College. The Society proposes to receive this trust iu its corporate capacity. It is to be devoutly hoped that this meas ure will receive the sanction of the Legislature, and the support of the State authorities. Iu the absence of such an institution, the educational fa cilities of our grand old State, though already extensive and of a creditable standard, are nevertheless fur below the demands of this progressive age.

A handsome monument to the late Dr. Tomlinson Fort, has just been erec ted in the Milledgeville Cemetery. f Atlanta Constitution . The public debt of France, it is tho ght, is so large that she will not be able to meet it, in the time specified by the treaty, and that Bismarck has so stipulated the conditions of peace designedly, that he might absorb French territory. The debt is 4± bil lions. A writer in the Constitution , signing his name X., calls the administration and its party at Washington, the “gift enterprise,” and believes that after the next election, they will have no more gifts to bestow or receive, inasmuch as the Democracy will take possession of the Government. An interest in the Macon Telegraph is offered for sale. This is justly re garded as one of the leading papers in the State, splendidly gotten up, and having a large circulation.

This he-did but threatened to return with State Militia. Sumner is removed as Chairman of the Committee on Foreign Relations, and Simon Cameron put at its head. The New York Tribune says, that a Liverpool paper states that a wealthy Englishman, Thomas Dutton, recently deceased, -left £2OOO in his will to the family of Gen. Hobt. E. Lee.

[From the Southern Christian Advocate. A Bi leflllitigraplij. Mr. Editor: As I perceive the epi demic is abroad for sketching the lives i and characters of church “celebrities” I have got the trembles lest some im- I pertinent fellow should try his hand jon me. In order, then, to prevent so dire a calamity, 11 must beg a little | space iu' your paper for this short “sketch,” as I think I^ought to know more about myself than any of these scribblers knows about me. To begin at tie beginning. But tins is a great difficulty, for though 1 am sure I was there, I have no recol lection about my own birth. Howev er, I am satisfied I was born some time; and I think it must have been in old Bonaparte’s time, for I recolleet J seeing him or a picture of him sealed up in a bottle when I was a boy. I’ve heard them say that I was a mighty cross bubv, and they had to give me lots of paregoric to keep me quiet I think it is very likely this is a true sto ry, lor I’ve beer cross enough ever since. Just in the way of a warning to parents on that point, let me say that I think it a bad practice to give children medicine. They are very apt to get to like it, and keep taking it af ter they’ve grown up. At least it seems like its been so with me, for some of my friends tell me that I make my insides an apothecary shop. I was sent to school soon alter old Bonaparte was isent to St. Helena; but there was this difference between us, his keeper was a man while min;, was a woman. I don’t remember much about those times, except one green spot, and that was my going to a tea-party, one afternoon at the house of one of the school-girls. Well, that was the beginning of my education, and I have been at it ever since; and I have to relate it as a fact, however discouraging it my be to the young folks, the longer I live and the more 1 study, the more I find I don’t know. As the subject of the sketch is still living, and hopes to live a while lon ger, it might be indelicate to say much about him, for you know that would look like flattery; and the Biole says some strong things about that class of gentry called flatterers. But as I fear my readers might; be disappointed if I did not give them some idea of my personal appearance, I’il try to do it in as few words as possible. In phys ical conformation I am very like some other people, for I have but one head and two feet, one nose and two eyes, one I3 ou th and two ears (these last tiioi long ones.) habits are pecul iar; I eat when I am hungry, (if I can get- anything fit to eat) and drink when I am thirsty, and sleep wheZ I am sleepy. I put on my shirt by drawing it over my head, and my trou sers by putting my feet through the legs; and in spite of the fashion, and notwithstanding the great improve ments in tailoring, I stick to the old trick of wearing suspenders. And now to make an honest con fession, which I do w ith the most per fect sincerity, I have to acknowledge that I have left tiudone much that I should have done, and done much that I ought not to have done. Per haps in this last category may be plac ed this egotistical notice of Myself. The District Court. The auspicious day arrived, and at high noon yesterdy Jim Simms “laid down de fiddle and de bow” to assume the gown and wig of a judge of the “District Court,”^to which exalted po sition he had been appointed by his ex(pras.s)ilfcncy. Rufus B. Bullock.— At the hour named, Jim took his seat on the west end of a very large table in the grand jury-room of the Superi or Court, which had been placed at bis disposal by the ordinary. On his right sat, in solemn and satyr dignity and beauty, King Solomon Thomas, black as Erebus aud loud as fish guano. Several other darkies gathered cau tiously about the door to see how the thing would be “did,” and opened their eyes and ears as to catch the law as promulgated by the immaculate Simms, who sat and sat and sat (wait ing for the appearance of the sheriff, and the clerk, and the district attor ney,) until he “purty nigh took root,” no sheriff or clerk or district attorney appearing, Jim looked into the code, which (a bran new volume) lay before him, then into the recent acts of the Legislature, which he held before him. Having become satisfied upon the le gal points in the case, he directed a yellow negro to open the court, who proceeded to the grave task, saying, “Oh yes, oh yes, dis honebol distrik court am now open. God sabe dis honerbol dist ik court.” Court being thus formally opened, Jim again looked at the code, and the acts, at King Thomas, and at the dep uty constable, and then commenced writing, as we uftei wards learned orders to the sheriff, clerk and other officers, to appear, produce the jury box on to-day, the Bth instant, or show cause why they should not be attached for contempt. The court then ad journed, and Ji n took up his code and his acts, and vacated the seat with a dignity which would have graced a Richelieu. The above is not an overdrawn pic ture of the opening of the District Court. Judge Schley has refused to grant -an injunction, to which the bar has re sorted as a legal restrainor upon Jim Simms. The officers, however, having taken legal advice, will act upon that advice, and thus bring the matter to an issue direct— Sav, Republican. Profanity never did any man the least good. No man is the richer, or happier, or wiser for it. It com mends no one to any society. It is disgusting to the refined; abominable to the good; insulting to those with whom we associate; degrading to the mind; unprofitable, needless, and in jurious to society.

Although this is below the price of any other reliable commercial ma nure in the market, yet I have determined to make the price still lower. The Langdon is a home production, made from well known articles produced here, (Bones and Cotton Seed Meal mainly) and I can afford to man ufacture and sell it cheaper than any foreign manufacturer can put his product in this mar ket. Again, I have this year so developed and perfected my works as to reduce the cost of manufacture considerably; and lastly, so generous has been the support of this new Southern enterprise by our planters, in giv ing the Langdon their preference, that I pro pose to reciprocate by giving them all the advantage I possess in the production of the article. The price hereafter will be only SSO per ton for lots of five or more tons, $55 for less amounts, and $3 per hundred pounds for amounts less than a ton. At this low price every good farmer will use fertilizers. Please give this a few insertions for the benefit of your planter readers. Very Respectfully, W. D. MANN, Proprietor Langdon Fertilizer.

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 are 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 their 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 severe testing by the most skillful artisans in our works, and long use on the part of the public, demonstrated to be 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 train by the breakage of mainsprings, is original with the American Watch Company, who, having h*d 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 Watchmakers to be the best, are 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 great improvement on any stem-winding watch in the American market, and by far the cheapest watch of its quality now offer 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 trademarks of the various styles made by the Company are as follows: American Watch Cos., Waltham, Mass. Amn. Watch Cos. Waltham, Mass. American Watch Cos., Crescent St., Wal tham. Mass.
