T OWN MAT r V Kl* W. Cartemille, tta-» April Uth, *B7l. Mauri*o, at the residence of the Brule’s father, near Stilesboro’, on the morning of the 6th instant, by Rev. Wm. Cunyua, Mr. Elias Skauxal, of Bossier Parish, Louisi an*, to Miss Nansie J., cMcat daughter of p. B. Ccxrrs, of Bartow County. At 8 o’clock. A. M., the youthful couple left the bridal home for the Stilesboro’ De pot, C. k V-W. R. R., accompanied by sev eral young friends as far as Cartersville, then a final adieu for their in the f ft r West May their wedded life be as bright aud lovely as their bridal morning. On Swearing. Cowper wrote some lines about swearing, which it, would be worth while for every one to learn: It chill* n»T blood to hear the blest Supreme Rradely appealed toon each trilling theme: Maintain vour rank vulgarity despise— To swear Is neither brave, polite nor wi*e, Too would not swear upon a bed of death : Reflect! Vour Maker may now stop your breath. Our Trip to Taylorsville. On Friday afternoon last, in company with Col. Abda Johnson, President, and Capt. D. W. K. Peacock, Sec’y and Treas., of the Cartersville & Van Wert Railroad, Judge J. JR. Parrott, A. R. lludginß, Z. W. Jack eon, of Cartereville, and Messrs. Sims and Cannon, of Stilesboro, we made a hasty trip over said road to Taylorsville and back.— This was our first trip to that point since the cars have been running there. It is, by trail, about 13] miles from Cartersville to Taylorsville, and about miles from there to Van-Wert, the present terminus of the road, or as far as it has been graded. Be tween the latter points two are considerable obstructions to the progress of the road, in the shape of Sugar and Deaton’s hills, upon both of which hands are now actively at work—ono of which is a deep dirt cut while the other is being excavated, inch by inch, by drill and blast. These obstructions pass ed over, we believe, nothing remains to com pletc the road to Van-Wert and Rock Mart but laying down the track. We long for the moment to arrive when the last spike is driven which shall weld together the for tunes of Cartersville and these points. Taylorsville, (formerly Summerville,) is % spang-firc new place, through the center of which runs the line between Bartow and Polk Counties. A hack runs in connection ■with the train from here to Van-Wert and iCcd&rtown. There is a private dwelling at this point where travelers can find accom modations, and where Summerville once liv ed, whence its original name. Its present name is called after Col. Taylor, ono of the railroad authorities. One store, one groce ry, and one blacksmith shop is now in full blast, while quite a creditable store house is just receiving the finishing touch, belonging to Mr. J. M. Smith, which he will rent or sell to any clever gentleman wishing to en gage in the mercantile business there. In addition to this, there are several steam saw mills in the neighborhood, ripping up ►large quantities of timber and supplying a vast quantity of lumber, shingles and laths, for the market, which is daily transported •over this road. Euliarlec creek runs hard by affording ample water power ior propell ing machinery, and making its bottoms very fertile and remunerative to the laborer The viflagc is located in the midst of an al most unbroken forest of the finest oak tim iber, while in sight is the almost inexhaus ■table belt of pine timber, where the steam saw mills are at work. Having to remain at this point for two or three hours, a portion of our party whiled away the time pleasantly in cracking jokes and relating anecdotes, in which the Judge, big gun and Dr. vied, asto who should carry off the palm, and it wound up by a relation of the exploits and adventures of Hudge and the big gun, in the northeast counties of this State, in the days of coon and possum skin currency. This is a sequel to the problem why these two gentlem en are eo slenderly formed—it was climbing dogwood and per simmon trees after possums to get their skins to make change for their customers. Our time having expired, we were soon all aboard the train, and after a run of four miles the train stopped at Stilesboro Depot, where we received additions to our number, of the female persuasion, and lost one or two males, the Dr. among the number. We could not see the classical village of Stilesboro, as a beautiful forest growth, between the two points, shuts out the view, only the Institute was observable by a str ight avenue at the end of which it stood, about half a mile dis tant from the depot . Between two and three miles ftirther on towards Cartersville, we passed Shelman’s Spring. This spring is immediately on Raccoon Creek, and in sight of the railroad, surrounded by a beautiful grove, and right here, with the eo operation <ol‘the citizens of Cartersville and Bartow county, and all others who may wish it, we propose a May- Day Pic-.N ic. Last year this Bpring could not be reached by the railroad, though altogether desired by all. This year it can be, and is just about midway between Stilesboro and Cartersville. Let’s go to work and have the festival to come off there. heaving the spring, after running up the lovely valley and along the banks of the gently rippling Etowah, across the same, and across Pettit’s creek and up its charm ing valley, we reached Cartersville in time to attend the ladies’ concert and supper at the court-house, that night, which was an entire success, giving full satisfaction to all who patronized it, and fully meeting all the ends for which it was designed JHs£“A New Hotel.—A Joint Stock Cos., we are glad to learn, is being organized, in Cartersville, with the view of building a nice, commodious hotel in this place. We urge upon every citizen, who can, to aid in this very laudable enterprise. For particu lars consult Judge Parrott or A. R. Hudgins. Let’s go to work to build it—work, and not is what we want. &aT*The ladies’ Concert and Supper, at Court-House, on last Friday night, was & decided success. The audience was not ks large as we have seen, but sufficiently » r ge to fully accomplish the object for which * Cntertainment was « iven * The ladies gentlemen concerned acquitted them c ’ w handsomely, and satisfactorily to {ill.

The weather is lovely, and warm enough for April. i Divine service a t all the Churches, on Subbath last. As regards religious facilities, Cartersville is sec ond to no town in the State. Her min isters, of the several denotnintions are able, zealous and pious. The Sabbath Schools are also large and interesting, and are great auxiliaries to the Church es. Satterfield, Pyron & Co’s is the place te buy good goods, fine goods, and fashionable goads, real cheap. fl«rPic-Nic season is rapidly ap proaching, and we know of no prettier or more suitable place for one, than Shelman’s Spring on the Cartersville & Van Wert Railroad. Let’s have it. Who will take the lead in the matter. Don’t ail ■speak at once. The gentle man of the high hat and spotted trows ers has the floor. Wo would again remind our merchants of the fact that we are pre pared to do their job work as neatly and cheaply as they can get it done elsewhere in the State. Give us a tri al, and if we do not give entire satis faction both as to price and style, we will not charge you a cent. There is no gas about this thing; we mean ev ery word of it, and would ask you to bear it in mind. Undoubtedly, the best Fewing Ma chine manufactured is Grover & Baker’s. aka?" Our clever friend G. L. McDon ald has just received an elegant stock of new Spring goods, as pretty and as cheap as any in town. The only thing needful now, is an advertisment in the Express, which would sell them in a very short space of time, and we are ready to bet cents on it. Bag* A young gentleman friend of ours, President of a certain Emigra tion Society in tovr? discharges the du ties of his office admirably, and we dis like to give him up, but according to the rules and regulations of the organ ization, he will have to take passage on the first aerial craft that leaves, and thereby necessitate the election of another officer, for he will bo “Up iua balloon, boys, Up in a balloon, All among the little stars Sailing round the moon.” Buy your goods of Satterfield, Pyron & Cos., and success is yours, beyond a doubt. t&r Messrs N. Gilreath 4’ Son have received their Spring goods, and as usual, they are as pretty as pretty can be. Lieutenant Jim, knows how to select a stock of goods, and what will suit the people, and himself, Miller, and the old gentleman, all know how to sell them. The ladies all say Mr. Gilreath displays such good taste in the selection of his goods ! and so he does. One of those “Opera” hats and a pair of those beautiful shoes, will marry off any young man in town.— We are going to have them. We are requested by a good lookingyoungbuck, en ville, to state that the Hon. i>. Latimer will have a sing ing cor cert in this town every 4th of July for all time to come, provided he should live that long. We suppose the young man is to assist in the exercis es, as he is distingushed for his vocal powers. you want a veal genuine, number one Sewing Machine, buy Grover & Baker’s. Our young friend, 0. H. Mil ner, it is said immortalized himself by a speech at Euharlee on Saturday last. “Pomp” is no sardine. t&T Spring clothes are all the rage ? ! now, the ladies! oh, how pretty thev do 1 ok, dressed out in these beautiful new goods, “cut of the latest fashion,” we know a fellow who says, that every time one of these beauties passes him, that it makes his heart go “flip-it-a flop,” like unto a churn dasher. Grover & Baker’s Sewing Machines are fully up to all that is claimed for them. Jtetf* The ladies of Cartersville have a mania for pretty flower-yards, and so have we, and by the way, there are some beautiful ones in town. We are no botanist, and can only distinguish a gourd-leaf from any other “herb,” by the odor, but like flowers nevertheless, our favorites being dog-fennel, poppies, cabbages and irish potato-tops.

Bear in mind When disease has undermined the health, and the physical system has become pros trated, a stimulant that will not only strengthen, but remove the cause, should be immediately resorted to. Mental distress is also a fruitful source of the breaking down of the constitution., and the ravages of this enemy to health are truly alarming. For a\l such maladies Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters have been found unsurpassed. By acting directly upon the digestive organs, they remove the heavy, disagreeable feeling after eating, so often complained of by persons of a delicate temperament. As soon as digestion is restored, the patient finds his strength increasing, and his general health improved. Thousands of persons certify that it may be relied on in all cases of weakness or nervous debility attendant upon sedentary habits. Ihe generality of Bitters are so disagreeable to the taste that they are ob jectionable to a weak stomach. This is not the case with Hostetter’s Bitters, which will be found mild and extremely pleasant. Bal samic plants, barks and roots contribute their restorative juices to rcuder it soothing and strengthening. Its basis is the only pure stimulant which lias ever been pro» duceil, containing no fusil oil, or any other deleterious element. The most careful and skillful chemists have analyzed the Bitters, and pronounce them harmless. This is scientific testimony; but the testimony of the hundreds of thousands who have expe rienced the preventive and curative effects of the okeat vkoktablk tonic and altera tive of modern times is still more conclusive In Fever and Ague. Dyspepsia, Billiousness, Nervous Complaints anu general debility it is as nearly infallible as anything in this fallible world can be. per lb. 10 to 13 Meats: Shoulders tb 12313 Clear rb side 12315 Plain hams 14315 Canv. hams 18 3 20 Fresh pork 9 310 Cheese, lb 18 3 22 Cigars.

Because it is sold at a lower price than auv ar ticle of like quality could be, which is brought from-a distance.

FROM THE MANY' TESTIMONIALS'fr«m practical men, these are here given; TracAi.oo.-4A, Ala.. 1 December 23d, 1870. f Col. W. D. Mann : • Sir.—Your Circular of the lsj inst. came to hand. As we found the Langdon Fertilizer the best that we tried, I give you my experience with it. Our land is jioor, red liili land. Used 200 lbs. to the acre. \\ e used one ton of Gil lam’s, ats7s; three tons of Zell’s, at $55 per ton; two tons of the Longdon, at S6O per ton. The land was all worked alike, and the some quantity used of each. I did not keep the weights of each Held separate, but attended to the picking and weighing myself, and khowthat there was more cotton gathered to the acre on the Langdon than any other part of the place. The Zell’s was next. From my own experience, and in the opinion of all farmers who took notice of it, the Langdon Fertilizer was far superior to any that we used. Respectfully yours, Ac., 0. (1. FITTS. Mr. Tfiost.cs 11. Kennedy, of Meridian, after recounting his experience in the use of the Langdon Fertilizer, says; “When I lived ou my plantation in Alabama, 1 used many kinds of Manure, but I never used anything that would begin to compare with the Langdon Fertilizer." TIIK PRICE AT THE MI LLS IS f!f> PEII TON, in live ton lots. $55 for a single ton. S3 per 100 lbs. for small lots. It is exchanged for Cotton Seed, 300 pounds, in strong sacks, (tel i ye red free on board boat or cars at Mobile, for one ton Cotton Seed, free at the landing or depot up couutrv—sacks and twine furnished by the Mills. Ot its cheapness, Col. Langdon says: “Its cheapness—l am fully convinced that, at the price now lTxed by you, to-wit: $55 per ton, it is much the cheapest fertilizer in our market. Found for pound, 1 consider it more valuable than the preparations that are Helling at $75 to SBO. For my own use, 1 would greatlv prefer it to Peruvian Guano at the same price.** Os its merits, he says: “The result is. the best Fertil izer in the world for our Soutlicrn lands, in my opinion.” Again: “It contains more fully and complete ly than any other, the elements' neocussarv for the production of Southern crops aud the »eno vation of Southern soil. Prof. Charles fT. Shepard, Jr., M. D., Professor of Chemistry South Carolina Medical College, and Inspector of Fertilizers for South Carolina, who made a full and careful analvsis of the Langdon Fertilizer, says of it: “It is a very su perior article.” m I also crush at the niilis. Raw Rones, which arc ground line. Price at the Mills, $45 per ton. Ground Raw Roue is too well known as a strong Fertilizer to need comment. For trees, shrub bery and grapes, it has no equal.
