Uc<liodi«t- Sunday School—
Tin* Sunday School Anni
versary Celebration.
One of tlie most pleasing and delightful
ni [ )iaitinHiits that we have witnessed,
» ; nce the war, transpired, In the courthouse j
in ihis place, on the evening of theCth inst.
It was the anniversary celebration of the
Carteisvillc Methodist Sunday School, un
,j, r the supervision of their model Superin
tendent, Mr. John A. Erwin, assisted by
Mr. Milton Loveless, Ass’t Superintendent,
Mis;-' Jennie Sansoin, musical directress, and
Annie E. Harris, organist. We can-,
not su ffer the very interesting occasion to j
, by with ut commending it especially J
t,, the consideration of all right thinking
and good people. Our Saviour, while on
earth, among many other examples lie set
fi.rour emulation,' look little'children in his
firms, as if to give them a place near Ilis
jrient heart, and blessed them, and said
•-uffer the little children to come unto me,
:<nd forbid them not, for of such is the king
, ofVavtn.” This is also accompanied
),v the injunction upon the church -Feed
my lambs," and “train up a child in the
way it should go,” which is coupled with
the promise that “when it is old it will not
depart from it.” The bible is no*, silent a
hout those of a more advanced age in life—
such, for instancy, ns youths, young men
ami young ladies. Hear what it says “Re
member sow thy creator in the days of thy
youth,” and assigns as the reason why, that
-the days will come, and the years draw
nigh, in which thou shalt say 1 have no
pleasure in them.” The following beauti
ful and true stanzas, hy Gibbons, the poet:
“ In the soft season of thy youth,
In nature’s smiling bloom,
Ere age arrives, and trembling waits
Its summons to the tomb, —
Remember thy Creator now ,
For him thy powers employ ;
Make him thy fear, thy love, thy hope.
Tby confidence and joy.
“He shall defend and guide thy youth
Through life’s uncertain sea,
Till thou art landed on the coast
Os blessed eternity.
Then seek the Lord betimes, and choose
The path of heavenly truth ;
This earth affords no lovelier sight
Than a religious youth.”
Again : “Wherewith shall a young man
cleans his ways ? Hy taking heed there
to, according to thy word.”
“How shall the young secure their hearts,
And guard their lives from sin ?
Thy word the choicest rule imparts,
To keep the conscience clean.
“Tby word is everlasting truth ;
How pure is every page;
That holy book shall guide our youth,
And well support our age.”—watts.
Let it be remembered that the Bible, and
the Bible only, is the text book of this Sun
day School, and is taught to the pupils
thiough the late system of uniform lessons.
The school is composed of little children,
youths, young men, young ladies, and the
middle-aged, both as pupils and teachers.—
The school now numbers about one hundred
and fifty regular attendants. The uniform
lessons, a little sheet of four pages contain
ing the lessons for the month, with explana
tory notes and references, Sunday School
Visitor, Magazine, Silver Spray song book,
nml Bible, constitute their text books and
circulating library— these, and nothing
more. The school is divided into ten class
es with two teachers to each class. When
boih teachers are present, one of them re
cites with t lie bible class, which is composed
of teachers, young men, and visitors. The
whole school recites the same lesson, which
is simplified for children. The services are
opened by reading a lesson from the Word
of God, the Superintendent reading one
verse, and the whole school responding in
the next, throughout the lessen, which was
designated the previous sabbath, after which
the entire school unite in singing a sabbath
school song, the organist leading the music,
then all kneel down in humble prayer to
God, the Superintendent, or someone else,
leading in prayer, at the conclusion of which
the Lord's Prayer is repeated aloud by the
school, after the one leading. Lessons are
then heard for half an hour, more or less.—
In the concluding exercises the classes, ac
cording to number, are required to rise suc
cessively to their feet, and repeat, from
memory, the first ten verses of ‘he lesson
read in the opening service, class -Vo. 1 re
peating the first No. 2 the second
vers ®, and so on as far as the number of
classes run. The pupils then repeat from
memory a select verse or parngrah of scrip-
Gtre, given them on the previous sabbath to
commit to memory, together with book,
chapter, and verse, and tbe Superintendent
here impresses the lesson repeated by a few
pointed remarks. After the lessons for the
next sabbath are announced, papers distri
buted, the school assemble around the or
gan and sing two or three lively sabbath
Echool songs, and then they are dismissed
by repeating aloud, after the Superintend
ent, the Apostles' Creed, which is printed
an a slip of paper and pasted in the backs
of the biblcs, for convenient reference.
Having given a brief history of how the
Sabbath School at the Methodist E. Church
South, at Cartcrsville, is conducted, we now
Proceed to say something about their anni-
Terj ary celebration, on tbe evening of the
instant:
1 he large and magnificent courtroom was
crowded to it utmost capacity by an inter
ested audience of ladies, gentlemen, and
children, at an early Lour. The hall was
handsomely decorated with evergreens and
flowers, and brilliantly lighted up. At the
appointed hour, the Rev. J. T. Norris arose
and read a portion of the sacred scriptures
and offered a petition at the throne of grace,
*hich was following with vocal and instru
mental music by the school, after which
J,aßte r Jimmy Pierce delivered the Saluta
*y Address. The classes were then called
and in regular order, by numbers, the teach
ing position immediately in front of
r ( Ua88 » on floor, the class arranged in
ar order across the rostrum, and be
,v ntone end of the same, each pupil
ul and Btep one paceto front, make a
be anrVf thCn repeat a Verse ° r couplet of
tu • 1 U poetj 7> or verse of scripture. In
' n, «rval between classes there was asong
of soul-animating and enlivening music, by
the school. About the middle of the enter
tainment, Master Bartow Leak came for
ward, upon the stage, and deliverer! a man
ly little poetic temperance speech, which
was followed by a little temperance song by
Mis« Lula Jores. Miss Jennie Ransom’s
class came upon the rostrum bearing three
banners upon which was inscribed “Faith,’’
“Hope,” “Charity,” and the class repeated
the 13th chapter of Ist Corinthians. The
“Golden “'J.” instructed by Mrs. Ella Mitch
ell, was a lovely scene. Nine little girls
each bearing a banner, with the above in
scription on one side, and one of the nine
Fruits of the Spirit—Love, Joy, Peace, Long
Suffering, Gentleness, Goodness, Faith,
Meekness, Temperence—on the other side,
which were repeated in song and in prose.
Next was seven little girls, representing the
seven colors of “The Rainbow,” which were
illustrative of the seven natural attributes
or Deity, seven Beatitudes, seven notes of
music, kc., which were repeated in song
and prose alternately, in answer to the in
terrogations of Miss Jennie Snngom. The
programme of the evening was concluded
with the Valedictory Epecch by Master
Charlie Moon. Rev. C. Evans, of Atlanta,
the orator of the evening, was then intro
duced to the audience, who proceeded to
address them in his usual clear, lucid, and
impressive manner, eliciting the undivided
attention of the vast assemblage, and bring
ing down the house in expressions of admi
ration at the able, pathetic, and forcible
manner in which the honored, Christian
spreaker presented the operations and claims
of the Sabbath Sell col cause. Dr. Mm. H.
Felton was then vociferously called for who,
in response, ascended the rostrum, amidst
the cheers and applause of the multitude,
and directly enforced the claims of the sab
bath school cause upon the geuerosity and
liberality of the people, in a brief but able
and effective appeal for money aid, which
was liberally responded to by the audience,
The evening and occasion both passed off
pleasantly and happily to all, and every
body went home in fine spirits, determined,
we trust, to renew tlieir zeal and efforts in
behalf of the glorious sabbath school cause.

captivating ladies’ Dress Goods, in town,

are the thistles of the heart, and every
indulgence of them is anew crop of
weeds. A few years ago, a little boy
told his first falsehood. It was a little
so Raij thistle seed, and no eye but
God s saw him as he planted it in the
mellow soil of Ins heart. But it sprang
up—oh : how quickly—and in a little
time another and another, each in its
turn, bearing more seed and more this
tles. And now his heart is overgrown
With tLuo bad habit.

Bishop Pierce preached in the fore
noon and evening, at the Methodist Church
in this place on Sunday last, (o large congre
gations. The sermons were such alone as
Bishop Pierce can preach.
A stone image was ploughed up by a
negro in Col. Tumlin’s employ, on his plant,
ation, near w/iatis known as “Tumlin’s
Mounds,” which Desoto, who traveled
through this country about three hundred
years ago, describes, and says that the peo
ple who inhabited this country at that time,
were wholly ignorant of their builders.—
These mounds are situated near the banks
ot the Etowali River, about two miles and a
half a little west of South, from town. The
largest one is about fifty feet high, the area
on top being one acre; the smaller one is
about twenty feet high, the area on top of it
we suppose, is about half an acre. The
smallest one lacks but little of being as large
the last one mentioned. They are situated
about thirty feet apart, in a triangular posi
tion. Who erected them, and for w hat pur
pose, no one knows. It is evident that the
Indians did not build them, us they disclaim
any knowledge concerning them. And yet
there is no doubt but that they were built
by human hands. Various opinions are en
tertained about them. Some think they
were built for defence in time of war, oth
ers think they were for religious purposes.
So there being no way of determining the ob
ject for which they were built, w e will pass
on to the image above mentioned. It is
about 18 inches high, one arm broken off,
the hand of the other resting on its thigh,
holes in its ears, for rings, and one in its
head, in which, we suppose had been a
plume ; it was only the bust of whatever B
was intended to represent. The shape ol
the head, the features, and in fact the whole
general phisiognomy resemble those of the
Esquimaux, natives of Brisish America, more
than any other tribe we know of. All who
have seen it concur in the opinion that it
was an idol, and worshipped as such by the
tribe to whom it anciently belonged, and as
the Indians were not idolaters, but worship
ped the sun, which they believed to be the
abiding place of the The Great Spirit, it,
of course, Hid not belong to them. Scientif
ic men who have examined this relic of the
past, think it positive evidence that tki g
country Yvas inhabited anterior to the tinje,
what we term the aboriginees. inhabited it.
and that to them this truly great curiosity
belonged. It is doubtless centuries old,
and were it possessed of life and the power of
speech, it could doubtless, “talcs uufold”
which would fill us with awe and admiration.
We love to look upon it, although lifeless
and inanimate as it is, it furnishes foou "or
the minds of the most profound thinkers,
and fills all our hearts with gratitude to the
God of Heaven and of earth, thaf we live in
a Christian land, and that instead of bowing
down and worshipping images of tvood and
stone, we bow to the true and living King
of Kings and Lord of lords—the Great and
Mighty Go<L May the day come, and come
it will, if the Bible be true, when the Yvliole
world shall know and worship the living
God, and Ilis name be proclaimed in every
heathen land, dispelling from the minds of
the idolaters, the darkness and superstition
which now envelop them, revealing
to them the marvelous light of Ilis own glo
rious image. Heaven sustain, hasten and
bless the missionary cause, the object of
Yvliich is to effect these grand aud glorious
results
A good joke is told of a little
four-year old fellow who, having diso
beyed his father, was about to incur
the penalty—a switching. The father
deliberately prepared a rod, while his
son stood a sad and silent spectator.—
As the parent approached to the un
pleasant duty,, the boy started at a
brisk run towards a neighboring hill!
The father pursued and for a time the
youngster increased the distance be
tween them; but gradually his strength
began to fail, and when he reached the
hill and began to ascend he soon lost
his vantage ground. Nearer and near
er the irate father approached, and
just as the top of the hill wa3 reached,
and as he came in arm’s length of the
little fugitive, who was ready to fall
from exhaustion, the boy quickly faced
about, dropped upon the ground, and
with an indescribable cast of counte
nance exclaimed: ‘Papa,that—makes
a fellow—blow—don’t it ?’ This ‘chang
ing of subject* was so extremely ludi
crous that the father laughed heartily
over the strategy which his hopeful
eon exhibited, and the rod was not us
ed.

G-rover and Baker Sewing Machine
films celebrated Sewing Machine has been in
1_ us* for nearly twenty years, and is now us
ed by over three hundred thousand families,
and has gained a reputation far above any oth
er sewing Machine. It Las been awarded more
rational prizes than any other machine in the
world; at the Great World’s Fair at New York,
it was awarded the Gold Medal; at the London
I-air it won the very highest prize, and iu 1867,
at Paris, it was awarded the Cross of the Legion
of Honor; besides this, it lias won the First
Premium at all the State Fairs where it has
been exhibited. However, we do not claim that
premiums won at our State and (County Fairs
any great honor or mark of distinction, as it
depends more on the operator than the machine,
t lev seldom have judges who are mechanics,
and judges of a Mewing Machine. At National
Fairs there are a sworn Committee, who are
judges of machinery. The following are some
of the reasons why the Grover & Baker is the
best:
It is the lightest running Machine in use; it is
the simplest; it is more rapid in its movements;
sews directly from two spools without rewind
ing; sews all kinds of work without haisting,
can do twice as mncli work in a dav as anv
other machine; it is the aaost durable, and
almost noiseless; it sews cqtially Veil on all
kinds of goods, from the finest Swiss muslin to
the'heaviest Beaver cloth; makes the elastic
lock-stitch much the strongest in use, and every
machine is fully warranted. Who can desire
any more in a sewing machine. There is every'
variety and size of these machines, from the

MILLIONS Bear Testimony to tliclr
Wonderful Curative Efi'ects.
They arc not a vile Fancy Drink, Made of Poor
Rum, Whiskey, Proof Spirits imii Refuse
Liquors doctored, spiced and sweetened to please tlio
taste,called “Tonics,” “Appetizers,” “Restorers,'’Jie.,
that lead the tippler on to drunkenness and ruin*hot arc
n true Mediciue.made from the Native Roots and Herbs
of California, free from sill Alcoholic Stimu
lant s. They are the GREAT BLOOD IM RI
FIERr.nd A LIFE GIVING PRINCIPLE,
a perfect Renovator and li.vigorntor <>f the System,
carrying off all i*oisor*or.s matter and restoring tlialJood
to a healthy condition. No person can take these Bit
ters according to directions and remain long unwell,
provided their bones arc not destroyed by mineral
poison or other means, and the vital orjans wasted
beyond the point of repair.
They are a Gentle Purgative as well os a
Tonic, possessing, niso. the peculiar merit of acting
ns a powerful agent in relieving Congestion or Inflam
mation of the Liver, mid alt the Visceral Organs. .
FOIt FEMALE COMPLAINTS, in young or
old, married or single, at the dawn of womanhood orat
the turn of life, these Tonic Hitters have no equal.
For Infinmmntory and Chronic Hlicunuv
tism and Gout, Dyspepsia or Indigestion,
Bilious, Remittent nnd Intermittent Fe
vers, Diseases of llie Blood. Liver, Kid
neys and Bladder, these Bitters have been most
successful. Such Diseases nre caused by Vitiated
Blood., which is generally produced by dcriuigcnicnt
of the Diges<jvc Organs.
DYSPEPSIA OR INDIGESTION, Head
ache, Pain in tlio Shoulders, Coughs. Tightness of the
Chest, Dizziness, S..ur Eructations of the Stomach,
Bad Taste in the Mouth, Bilious Attacks. Palpitation of
the Heart, Inflammation of the bungs. Pain in the re
gions of the Kidneys, and a hundred other painful symp
toms. are tlio offsprings cf Dyspepsia.
They invigorate the Stomach and stimulate the torpid
Liver and Bowels, which rentier them of unequalled
efficacy in cleansing the blood of all impurities, and im
parting new life ai:.! rigor to the wholysystem.
FOR SKIN DISEASES, Eruptions,Tetter, Salt
Rheum, Blotches, Spots. Pimples, Pustules, Boils, Car
buncles. Ring-Worms. Scul l Head. Sore Ryes , Erysipe
las, Itch. Scurfs. Discolorations of the Skin, Humors and
Diseases of the Skin, of woatever name or nature, are
literally dug up and carried out ofthe system in a short
time by the use ot those Bitters. One bottle in such
cases will convince tne nr.»3t incredulous of their cura
tivc effects.
Cleanse the Vitiated Blood whenever you find its im
purities bursting through the akin in Pimples, Erup
tions or Sores ; cleanse it when you find it obstructed
and sluggish in the veins; cleanse it when it is foul,
and your feelings will toll you when. Keep the blood
pure, and the health of the system will follow.
Pill, Tape, and other Worm*, lurking in the
system of so many thousands, are effectually destroyed
and removed. Says a distinguished physiologist,
there is scarcely an individual upon the face ofthe
earth whose body is ox.-mpt from the presence of
worms. It ia not upon the healthy elements of the
body that worms exist, hut upon the diseased humors
and slimy deposits that breed these living monsters of
disease. Na> System of Medicine, no vermifuges, no
anthelmintics will free the system from worms like
these Bitters.
