THE SI?£I-WEEHJ,Y EXPRESS. JAB. Watt KAURIS and SAM’L U. SMITH Editors and Proprietors. ' nmmmm mi imp ■ 11 ■—amwmm tm i t APRIL lßt>i 1871. 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. [Atlanta Constitution.

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.’ 'tgk-Seo Ruble & Hight’s big adver tisement in another column. DESIRABLE BUILDDG LOTS FOR SALE !

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. t.ist State Convention, which convenes on the 21 st instant, and can be consulted at the Bartow House apr. 10, 1871.
