LOCAL ITEMS. • | Ga., 4iine?W), 1871. 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. 1 lie exhibition of Messrs. Johnston and Attaway’s pupils, of the Cartersville Male ami Female High School, the juvenile por tion of it, assisted by Mrs. Rogers' music class, which came off, at the courthouse, on VV ednesday evening last, or as much of it as we could see and hear, passed off very cieditably indeed, both to teachers and pu pils. Xhe music was very good indeed con sidering tike piano that accompanied it, v hich, we thought, an inferior instrument and not exactly in tune, the class, however, evinced no small degree of proficiency in the science of mnsic.

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.” TOWN MATTERS. -T. T. Gibson, Local W.

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. Wm. L. Mansfield, Marietta, Go. The pupils of the above Institution, under the supervision of Ilev. Mr. j Mansfield, will give a Concert, at Town | Hall, on Monday evening next, for the beuefit of the School. Two Brass Bands are expected to supply the in strumental -music. “Giving to the l poor is lending to the Lord. ’ *lO 000 Reward for a better Alterative and Blood Purifier than Pemberton’s Comp. Extract Stillingia. Our enterprising marketman, Mr. A. G- B. Vandivere, is enlarging las borders and 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 ing on this side of town, at both of which 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. WM. H.

May 26,-tft 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. S. & M. LIEBMAN, Have Hcceifvef! the MOST ELEOAST, Best Selected All Cheapest!

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.

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.
