star obi friend, Joe Britt, from Acworth,
lias cast in his lot with us, ruul opened out
a lirery stable at the old stand of W. W.
Milam, where he proposes to accommodate
his patrons with traveling conveyances, at
moder.te pricey See advertisement.
The Cartersville Female Academy build*
ing is being repaired, preparatory to the ‘
opening of the school, in a few days. The
teachers have arrived, we learn.
In an old letter of Hon. A. H, Stephens’,
written away back yonder in the days of I
yore, when the Western & Atlantic or State
Railroad was in its incipiency, and recently
republished in the Atlanta Sun, we find the
following paragraph:
“Crawford had just been elected Govern- j
or. He had exerted all his power against
the proposition to sell (said road). Jenkins
and Toombs in the House defeated it there.
Miller was in the Sonate. Bishop, Tumlin,
and Smith, of the Cherokee country, from |
the beginning, were untiring and efficient |
friends of the road. I allude to William N.
Bishop, Lewis Tumlin, and Wm. Smith, of
Rome. So was Mr. McFarland, of Walker,
while he was a member.”
We reproduce this paragraph simply to
show who, from this seotion of the State,
were the champions of said road at that day
of its infancy. Some of them are still in
our midst. A few only of our readers are
conversant with the times and incidents in
the construction of this gigantic enterprise,
not even your humble writer, except what
information we have been able to derive
from others. There are a few old settlers
in and around Cartersville, yet living, mov
ing and having their being, who heard the
‘first shrill whistle of the first steam horse'
that awoke the slumbering echoes of the !
deep, dark valley in whose bosom glided the
bright waters of the rippling Etowah, and
attracted the gaze and startled the fears of
the untamed denizens of the neighboring
mountain recesses and gorges, and made
hill and dale redolent with the re-echoing
notes of the fiery steed as he tripped along
in his proud march through the former hunt
•ing grounds of the red man of the forest, but
now the Cherokee purchase, to link togeth
er the fortunes of the South with the great
West, stopping ever and anon, here and
there, and tarrying but a day to erect a fin
ger board upon which to indicate the star
of empire in her westward march, and plant
his scions of civilization, commerce and free
trade, in the fertile valley plains across
which his rumbling trains with almost light
ening Speed, would transport the rich un
resurrected and dormant resources of its
diversified surface to the great markets of
the world and exchange and commingle the
peoples and products of the four quarters of
the globe. The scion of the plains of the
Etowah —Cartersville —like the bey tree,
is shooting out her boughs in all directions
upon which hang, in golden clusters, if not
the luscious grapes of Eschol, in variety the
products of an age and a continent, and be
neath which slumber some of the architects
of her fortune and that of the State Road
the great vein of life to Georgia, wreathed
in honors and clothed with immortality,
while others, still alive, have here appointed
their sepulchre and expect, with them, to
rest beneath the bowers formed by the in
tertwining boughs of the scion they assisted
in planting in the picturesque valley of the
sparkling Etowah, over a third of a century
ago. Prominent, amongst whom were Col.
Lewis Tumlin, still living in Cartersville,
and John Leak, whose tomb is encircled
within her borders, and whose dust com
mingles with her soil.
There is much ado made over the report,
ed disruption of the Town Hall Building.—
Some say the walls have bulged four inches)
some say four feet, while yet others say they
are not bulged at all. A slight difference
of opinion, we should say. Our eye not be
ing practiced we cannot tell; but there is one
thing we can tell, and that is if the walls are
bulged we cannot see it. There has been no
disruption between the ceiling overhead of
the stores underneath the Hall and the
walls, where they come together, and we
do not understand how the walls can bulge
and not cause this breach. It is true the
wall underneath one of the hall windows is
cracked a little distance, and one side of
the casing and sill has left the brick facing,
but the inside plastering remains unbroken.
In our observation we have seen but very
few brick walls but what were cracked some
where or in some way, probably in the set
tling of the building. It would, however,
in order to allay apprehensions, be well
enough for the Council to appoint a com
•mittee of skilled mechanics to give the mat
ter a thorough examination and report upon
the condition of the building. As it is the
hall is worthless.

Martin Collins, one of mogt worthy, pious
and mdnstriotW county citizens, departed
this life, in great peace and triumph, at his
residence near Milam’s Ferry, on Tuesday
last, after a wasting protracted spell of sick
ness. His remains were brought to this
place on Wednesday, and his funeral was
preached from the Methodist E. Church, by
Dr. Wm. H. Felton, from the 'text “Vet me
die the death of the righteous, and let my
last end be like his v The sermon was a
most solemn and impressive one. Manv
eyes were bedewed with tears, and many
hearts pulsated with emotions of sympathy
for the grief-stricken wife and weeping or
phan children, who were present to hear
the last, sad tribute of respect paid to the
memory of the one in whom their earthly
hopes centered, and around whom their
fondest affections clustered as husband and
father. The corpse was followed to tho
cemetery by a labge train of kindred and
friends, where it was deposited in the earth
to wait till his triumphant spirit returns to
put it on afresh, at the last day. His dying
admonition to his family and brethren was
“meet me in heaven.” F'or many years he
had been an exemplary and acceptable mem
ber of the M. E. Church South, and died as
he had lived—in the faith of the gospel of
Christ. “Well done, weary pilgrim! enter
into thy rest.”

Muriel ta Free School.
The school was opened 22 of May,
1867, without money or books. No
individual was appealed to personally
for donations; it was however announ
ced that offerings voluntarily made
would be accepted. Prayer was made
to Almighty God to put in the hearts
of benevolent people a spirit to sustain
the enterprise, and by voluntary dona
tions and concerts given by the pupils
the school has been sustained. On
one occasion a Fair was held in con
nection with Marietta Female College,
the funds being divided between the
two. The proceeds that resulted to
the Free School were used principally
in fitting up an old academy for the
use of the School. In this building we
are holding the School. I will only
add that books and stationery have
been almost entirely furnished to the
pupils free; in a few instances such as
desired to have their own books have
paid mo half price for them. In the
early days of the School several hun
dred dollars worth of clothing and shoes
were distributed among the pupils
W. L. M.
Ist. Its object, from the beginning,
was to give neglected children, wheth
er orphans or not, the means of a com
mon school education; and more than
this, it was contemplated (and is still
hoped for and prayed for) that in due
time a sufficient amount of money
would be received to build suitable
houses fer an Industrial School for
those children who either have no
home, or whose homes are worse than
none. Here I beg special attention to
a few remarks as to this latter class.—
We see in all populous communities
scores of children, with living parents,
who are, by far, worse off than orphans,
for the reason that they are left to the
care of parents utterly unworthy the
trust—such as care neither for the
moral nor intellectual training of their
offspring. These must, by the very
force of destiny, become depraved.—
Are not such as these orphans indeed ?
An Industrial School connected with
a home for neglected children, is what
I want for these. At this school, I
design that they shall be taught howto,
live.
Beyond this, however, I propose to
educate children more favored as to
home training; but, at the same time,
too poor in worldly goods to pay the
tuition of regular schools. Much of
this has already been done with most
happy results. Yet the field is large,
and much remains to be done. In my
next I will state how I propose to ob
tain means, and how I have hitherto
sustained the school.

Our enterprising marketman, Mr. A. G-

extending his field of operations by opening
anew market house on the East side of the
Railroad, at the old stand of Jas. M. Lackey,
on the old Tompkin’s lot, for the conveni
ence of those of our citizens living on that
side of town. He will also continue the one
at his present stand on the West side of the
Railroad, for the convenience of those liv

stalls he will keep daily supplies of fresh
meats.
Tobacco is a great weed, according to our
estimation, although those who don’t use it
think otherwise. It is certainly a great lux
ury, to say the least of it. Chewing and
Smoking good tobacco, such as is sold by
Jourdan, Howard & Harralson, the largest
wholesale tobaeco dealers in the South, At
lanta, Ga., is a great solace to the troubled
mind, and a great • companion around the
lonely hearthstone or on a wearisome jour
ney. It is food for the hungry, and water
for the thirsty, and far better than “sper
rits.”
[From the “Charleston News” Saturday ,
May IS, 1871.)
An Honest and Attractive
Scheme.
“What is everybody’s business is nobody’s
business,” and while the importance of fos
tering immigration is conceded on all hands,
the great work languishes, as far as this
State is concerned, for want of cash working
capital so indispensible for its prosecution.
But the South Carolina Immigration Associ
ation, whose organizations and aims have
already had our warm commendation, is
composed of live and resolute men, whom
obstacles cannot balk in the execution of
their self imposed task of peopling the mil
lions of rich but idle acres in our State with
hardy and thrifty settlers from otherclimes.
Finding that the poverty of our people gave
little prospect of raising by subscript ion the
fund needed to give an impetus to their en
terprise, they have hit upon the expedient
of a series of Gift Concerts, to begin in
Charleston in October, the ticket-holders of
which will be participants in the grandest
and most attractive drawing ever held in our
State.
The first prize will be the splendid Academy
of Music property, which was built at a cost of
$230,000, and which, besides stores, music-halls,
saloons, etc., contains the brightest and most
beautiful temple of the drama in the South,—
The Second prize will be One Hundred Thou
sand Dollars in cash. A long list of other cash
prizes make up the grand aggregate of Five
Hundred Thousand Dollars, to he distributed
among the ticket-holders. The number of
tickets issued will be 150,000, and the price will
be five dollars each.
There is no doubt of the extraordinary pop
ularity which the scheme is destined to attain.
Some idea of this may be formed from the cir
cumstance that over two-thirds of the tickets
hare been engaged in advance by agents at the
North and in California. But the features of
the drawing, which will enable it to contrast
most favorably with the Crosby Opera House
Lottery in Chicago, and other similar schemes*
are: Ist. Its unqualified endorsement by a large
number of the best known and most respected
citizens in the State. 2d. The fact that it will
be managed by gentlemen whose names arc a
guarantee that the drawing will he conducted
wi th strict honor and fairness; ami 3d. The end
sought to be gained, which is one that hiust en
list the sympathy of every friend of South Caro
lina and the South.
The last consideration, indeed, elevates the
enterprse from the rank of a private specula
tion to that of a project of vast public impor
tance. We want and must have those small
farmers whose labor constitutes the true wealth
of a State. And if the gentlemen of the Immigra
tion Society -succeed in bringing them hither,
nobody will be disposed to criticise the plan by
Which they accomplish the ffeat.

The *T»in Killer” may justly be styled
the great medicine of the world, for there is
no region of the globe into which it has not
found its way, and been largely used ami
highly prized. Moreover there is no clinic
to which it has uot proved to be well adapted
for the cure of a considerable variety of dis
eases; it is a speedy and safe remedy for
burns, serious cuts, bruises, wounds and va
rious other injuries, as wall as for dysente
ry, diarrhoea and bowel ©oid|daints general
ly, it is admirably suited fbr every race of
men on the face of the globe.
It is a very signficant fact, that notwith
standing the long period of years that the
“Pain Killer” has been before the world, it
has never lost one whit of its popularity, and
at no previous time has the demand for it
been so great, or the quantity made been so
large, as it is to-day.
Another significant faci is, that nowhere
has the Pain Kitler ever been in higher re
pute, or been more generally used by fami
lies and individuals, than it has been here
at home, where it was first discovered and
and introduced. That the Tain Killer will
continue to be, what we have styled it, thk
gr,tat medicine of the world, there can
not be the shadow of a doubt.—Providence
Advertiser.
A Chapter of Facta.
Space is valuable in a newspaper, and it ,
is therefore proposed in this advertisement
to condense a variety of facts, important to
the public, into a small compass. Those
facts refer to Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters—
what that celebrated medicine is and what
it will do. In the first place, then, the arti
cle is a stimulant, tonic and alterative, con
sisting of a combination of an absolutely
pure spirituous agent with the most valua
ble medicinal vegetable substances that Bot
anic research has placed at the disposal of
the chemist and the physician. These in
gredients are compounded with great care,
and in such proportions as to produce a pre
paration which invigorates without exciting
the general system, and tones, regulates and
controls the stomach, the bowels, the liver,
and the minor secretive organs.
What this great restorative will do must
be gathered from what it has done. The
case of dyspepsia, or any other form of in
digestion, in which it has been persistently
administered without effecting a radical cure
is'yet to be heard from, and the same may
be said of bilious disorders, intermittent se
t
ver, nervous affections, general debility,
constipation, sick headache, mental disabili
ties, to which the feeble are so subject. It
purifies all the fluids of the body, including
the blood, and the gentle stimulus which it
imparts to the nervous system is not'succeed
ed by.the slightest reaction. This is a chap*
ter of facts which readers, for their own
sakes, should mark and remember.

Cleanse the Vitiated Blood whenever yon find Its Im

and your feelings will tell you when. Keep the blood
pure. and the health of the system will follow.
Pin, Tape, and other Worms, 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 exempt from the presence of
worms. It is not upon the healthy elements of the
body that worms exist, but upon the diseased humors
and slimy deposits that breed these living monsters of
disease. No System of Medicine, no vermifuges, no
snthelmintics will free the system from worms like
these Bitters.

Grover and Baker Sewing Machine-
THIS* celebrated dewing Machine has been in
use for nearly twenty years, ami is now us
ed by over three hundred" thousand families,
and has gained a reputation far alwivc any oili
er sewing Machine, it has been awarded" moru
national prices than auy oilier machine in the
world; at the Great World’s Pair at New A ork.
it was awarded the Gold Medal; at the London
Fair it won the very highest jiriif; anil in lt;r,7,
at Paris, it was awarded the Cross of the Legion
of Honor; besides this, it has won the 1-iis.t
Premium at all the State Fairs where it has
been exhibited. However, we do not cl a ini that
premiums won at our State amt County Fairs
any great honor or mark of distinction, a- it
depends more on the o|>er»tor than the machine,
they seldom have judges who are mechanics,
and judges of a Sewing Mach i-ne. 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 iis movements;
sews directly 1 com two spools without rewind
ing; sews all kinds of work without hoisting,
can do twice as ranch work in a day as any
other machine; it. is the must durable, and
almost Doiseless; it sews equally well on all
kinds of goods, from the finest Swiss muslin to
Ihe heaviest Beaver cloth; makes the elastic
lock-stitch much the strongest in use, ainJeveiv
machine is fully warranted. Who can de>ir«
anv more in a sew ing machine.. Ttere ft- every
variety ami size of these machinas, ftoni t»
lightest family to the heaviest leather machine.
These maehijH* now for sale at Cartersville.
