Uartersvlllc & Van Wert null
road.
The annual faceting of the Stock
holders of the Cartersville & Van Wert
railroad. Company was held in the
Court House, in this place, on Monday
the 13th inst., Col. Abda Jobnson,
1 ’resident pro ton., presiding. Various
alterations and amendments of the JBy-
Lj \vh, for the better management of
the Company’s affairs, were made and
passed, and, among other things, the
name of the Hoad changed so that it
is in future to be known ai “The Cheiv
rokee Railroad Cos.” Upon a motion
to proceed to the election of Directors,
the Hon. Mark A. Cooper, forhier Pres
ident of the Road, made quite an earn
est speech, declining all office in the
gift of the Stockholders, and gave an
interesting account of the trials and
difficulties of the road, from its incep
tion, up to the time of the transfer of a
majority of its stock into the hands of
Kimball & Cos.; in general terms ex
plaining his connection with the road,
and the manner of its management,
and the reasons therefor, and his final
parting with all of his interest in its
stock; all of which w T as based upon his
earnest for the success of the
enterprise in the completion of the
road, and the assurances and guaran
tees which he had that this desired ob
ject would be fully carried out by the
present Company. That he had desir
ed first the success of the road above
every other object, and incidently any
profit which it might fairly and justly
bring along with his engagement in its
comluctf, and now declaring that he
surrendered all his interest in, togeth
er with his connection with tho road,
with the confident expectation of see
ing it in successful operation in a short
time.
Upon his motion the Stockholders
proceeded to the election of officers for
tho ensuing year; when, on counting
out the' vote, the following gentlemen
were elected:
H. I. Kimbaix, President.
O. A. Lochrane,
GkokgeCo™, Directors.
John Harris,
Abba Johnson,
Col. Abda Johnson then called the
newly elected President to the chair,
who. upon taking it, addressed the
convention upon the interest before,
them. “He urged the active, hearty co
operation of all the Stockholders and
of all the people on the contemplated
line of the road, and warmly pressed
the necessity which lay upon them all
to come up and help in the building of
the road. He assured them that un
less this was done, the road could and
■would go no further, but would come
this way—that he had done all that he
could do, and that without such aid
and such co-operation, the road must
for a while stay as it was, if it did not
eventually cease to exist at all. He
manifested great auxiety in the carry
ing out of the project, but stated plain
ly, so far as he said might be under
stood, that the people who were inter
ested mainly in the construction of the
road must come up to its aid, if they
would see it succeed, otherwise it must
prove a failure. That he had gone his
full length, and, having laid out alrea
dy 380,000 dollars, he could go no fur
ther. That the Stockholders had paid
iu only the small sum of 1800 dollars,
that he himself owned no land, nor
mines, no property along the road>
while others did; that they were the
parties most largely interested; that
State aid could not build the road, aud
that they, the people interested, were
the only parties who could, by a pres
ant active co-operation in the whole
matter. That if they did not nave
money, they had land, and that he
would see to it that cash should be
paid for it at fair prices, to such
amounts as they might be willing to
invest in the stock of tho road, and
that thus the road could and would
lie built, and assuredly be carried suc
cessfully, and in a short time, to the
State line. They were now starting
tinder anew name, and anew admin
istration, nnd he called for the instant
outlay of new vigor.” "While we do
not propose to give his Language, the
above is, so far as we recollect, a pret
ty fair synopsis of what he said, Col.
Johnson then concluded the meeting
by a few well-timed remarks as to his
temporary administration, when, on
motion, the meeting adjourned.
This road is now constructed an<s the
trains are daily running from Carters
viUe to Taylorsville, within six or sev
en miles of Van Wert, and we under
stand is paying handsomely already.
The country which it is to penetrate is
beyond all question tb« finest farming
pnd planting and at the same
' time is the best mineral region, and
.affords the very best lumber in the
largest quantities, by all odds, of any
other in the State of Georgia. It is
no mere, vague statement, but is an in
i uh>pu;able fact, verifieUby the examina
tion of many competent gentlemen
that, Polk County is, ip-day, the rich
est county in uieSuitiV Its treasures
yet undeveloped, are a very marvel,
not only In their excellent character
and quality, but in their boundless ex
tent. and we have the declared judg
ment and opinion of a gentleman who
out lately went to Pennsylvania and
the North on a tour of examination
and inspection, remaining there two
months, with a view to inform himself
and get the facts, that no region that
he saw or heard of, but falls far short
of this, and that it is his deliberate
judgment that Polk County is the
richest county, not only in the State,
but in tho United States.
No other region has such excellent
iron ores of the very finest description
and inexhaustible in quantity—copper,
marble, slate, gold, silver, and many
others, many of which are of incom
parable value. South-western and
Southern Georgia boast, and properly
too, of their maguificent forests of
pine, but right here stands a whole
realm of pine, which, by the unpreju
diced verdict of railroad contractors,
and dealers iu lumber, is altogether
superior to anything of the kind, for
all purposes of construction, which can
be found in those far-famed regions.—
Develop this country, and in five years
from the day that a railroad shall
open it up to the world, it would pre
sent such a scene of laborious activity,
wealth, progress and increased and in
creasing population; such an advance
iu all values of all property, in that
county, such a building of towns, and
substantial advance and growth in all
the true elements of real prosperities,
as would make it the most desirable
region of the whole South. Extend
the road but a little, and the vast Ala
bama coals fields are at once in her
grfisp, and not only that region, but
all the points East and South of it,
Cartersvillo, Marietta, Atlanta, as far
as to Augusta iu one direction, and
Grffin, Macon, and others, in another
shall be the instant beneficiaries of
this road. But we have, perhaps,
written, for. the present, more than
enough. This road must be comple
ted and extended. It is now the most
important road, in many respects, in
the Stale, and the interests at stake
are too valuable to let it languish for
a moment. Let the new administra
tion, under anew name, go forward
with anew vigor, and we shall soon
have anew era, not in politics, but in
the just development of those wonder
ful resources with which God has
blessed this favored land.
We are unable to explain the appa
rent discrepancies between the state
ments of Major Cooper and Mr. Kim
ball, as to the completion of road,
as will bo seen by the tenor of their
statements in the Convention, but we
shall confidently await the day, and
hail it with delight, when all our an
ticipations shall be realized iu the Con
sumation of this railroad scheme, than
which there is no other of greater im
portance to the whole body of the
State.
Ciirtersville and Van Wert Rail
road Convention.
We attended yesterday the meeting
of the stockholders of the Cartersviile
and Van Wert Railroad, at Cartersviile.
The convention was called to order, at
two o’clock, by Colonel Abda Johnson,
President pro tern. Nearly all the stock
was represented. The Treasurer, D.
W. K. Peacock, made a report, exhib
iting ihe operations of the year. The
receipts footed up $10,408 69— of
which $2,597 65 was derived from pas
sengers and $4,579 89 from freights.
Hon. Mark A. Cooper moved to ac
cept the amended Charter, which
changes the name to the Cherokee
Railroad Company, allows the capital
stock to be increased to $3,000,000,
and to consolidate the stock in shares
of SIOO. The motiou was carried
unanimously.
H. I. Kimball, Esq., offered a series
of amendments to the By-Laws, which
were likewise adopted without dissent.
The amendment changed the name;
fixed the annual meeting on the second
Thursday after the first Monday in
April, beginning with 1871: the place
of meeting to be determined by the Di
x-ectors; providing for the election of
five Directors, one of whom shall be
designated as President; providing for
the election of a Secretary, Treasurer,
and Assistant Treasurer by the Board
of Director*; repealing certain sections,
and in lieu thereof substituting sec
tions giving the President power to ap
point subordinate officials, fix their
compensation, aud remove them at
pleasure.
On motion of Hon. Mark A. Cooper,
the meeting was declared the first an
nual convention of the stock-holders of
the Cherokee Railroad Company.
The Convention, after an eloquent
speech from Honorable Mark A. Coop
er, proceeded to elect a President and
Directors.
The following were elected without
a dissenting vote:
President—H. I. Kimball.
Directors—H. I. Kimball, Abda John
son, O. A. Locbrane, George Cook and
John Harris.
Mr, Kimball on taking his seat ad
dressed the convention iu an earnest
and pointed manner. He does not
use six words that can be expressed in
two, and when be gets through, be
stops. He never speaks unless he has
got something to say.
Colonel Abda Johnson, who is a pol
ished orator and a capital presiding
officer, made a handsome effort in be
half of the enterprise.
The Convention adjourned.

Ilow a Camel Goes Through tlie
Eye of a Needle.
The passage from tha New Testa
ment, ‘lt is easier for a camel,’ etc., has
perplexed many good men, who have
read it literally. In Oriental cities
there are in the large gates small and
very low apertures, called metaphoric
ally ‘needles’ eyes,’ just as we talk of
windows on ship board as ‘bulls’ eyes.’
These entrances are too narrow for a
camel to pass through in the ordinary
manner, even if unloaded.
When a loaded camel has to pass
through one of these entrances, it
kneels down, its load is removed, and
theu it shuffles through on its knees.
‘Yesterday,’ writes Lady Duff Gordon
from Cairo, ‘I saw a camel go through
the eye of a needle, that is, the low
arched door of an inclosure. He must
kneel, and bow his head to creep
through; and thus the rich man must
humble himself.’

Dr. D. H. Benton :
Bear Sir: —l feel that it is my duty to
make known to the public generally what a
wonderful cure you have performed upon
me.
I had suffered with cancer upon my right
breast for seventen years, and for eleven
years past it has been very painful to me
indeed. I showed the cancer to several
Physicians, and they gave it as their opinion
that owing to ray age, which is now about
80 years, it could not be cured I never
allowed any one to treat the case, because I
was apprehensive that it would make the
cancer worse. I did, however, allow several
cancer doctors, or conjurers, to try their
skill upon it, but without any relief. Some
time last, year I was handed a circular of
Dr. Kline’s, of Philadelphia, stating that he
would be in Atlanta, Ga., for three days,
on or about the 20th day of October. I
then concluded I would go and meet him,
and get him to treat the case. I went to
Atlanta, at the appointed time, but after
searching all the public hotel registers for
three days, I could not find or hear anything
of Dr. Kline.
I was then directed by a friend to go to
you, and I will say that it was well for me
that I did find you, for I was at that time
reduced down so low that I had about lost
all hope myself of ever being cured ; but
when I found you and learned of your
treatment and heard your statements, I was
perfectly willing to put myself under your
treatment, and accordingly I did, and in
fourteen days afterward the cancer came
out, leaving a hole or place inches in
diameter; and in ten weeks after I com-,
menced your treatment, the place was all
healed over and I now consider the cancer
entirely well. And I would therefore
recommend every one afflicted with cancer
to lose no time in placing themselves under
the treatment of Dr. D. H. Benton, of
Atlanta, Ga.
Yours respectfully,
Larkin Glover.
Dr. D. H. Benton will visit Cartersville
during the session of the approaching Bap.
