■‘A Man of Slraw.”
The Methodist Advocate, (save the
m ftrk!) a Radical sheet, (which needs
washing,) pnl lished in Atlanta, is out
in a lengthy, labored article, in which
the editor attempts to show to the
Northern people that an effort will be
made in the South, to get pay f*r our
liberated slaves. He has erected this
“man of straw/' and is lighting it most
desperately 1 Well, provided what be i
says bo true, is that any of his busi
ness ? Is that tho way he proposes to;
spread “Soriptnral holiness over these !
lauds ?” Is the slime he spews upon I
us, the cement with which he hopes to
unite us to the “mother Church ?’’ He
says all manner of hard things about
us, and still wants as to be ‘‘brethren!”
Compares us to thieves and robbers*,
nml opens to us the ‘door* of the
Church 1“
He says: “If slaves were prooerty
at all, they were stolen property, to
which the master hae no more right
than a thief or high-waymau to his
plunder. They were stolen from 1
Africa, and the purchaser knew this
fact when he bought theml" Well,
who kidna}rped them ? who stole them
in the tirst place? Who Wild them to 1
us, and what him become of the muo- j
ey ? Pay us back “oar own with usu
ry,” and we wifi tie latisficd. No one
is simple enough to think of taking, try
fore c, remuneration for our slave*. If j
we are ever paid for them at all, any
man of sense knows it will be ft vol
untary act of the Government, ft a was
their liberation.
Hut this precious disciple of peace
and good will, gut* farther and says:
“‘There would he aouie propriety in a
union of freeduiou to cutlni tages for
tbheir yearn of unpaid toil. A counter
{movement of this kind might be en
tconraged by every pbilnmliropist in
!tho laud, ami uigtd by every consid
er .lion of justice.” We have neither
; time, nor inclination, nor taste to pur
sene this Radical light any further.—
\IVe merely wished our renders to know
> bouidhiug of the animus of certain
iiluminarie ß —"Northern lights” who
i huve come South to teach our people
rrighteousness. And this man is a
IlVctor of Divinity ! If such Divinity
; ad. bis does not need doctoring , there is
iiaci use for doctors of that variety.
•Go! liorne, Dixior Fuller, and let the
{ipucr negroes alone. They will im
(firove slowly, and behave themselves if i
jwvvmr sort will cease to put mischief in
i«lo their heads, ho home, and p e cli
lithe Gospel to those who may be will- ■
i iug to hear you, und cease to vex yoor
i righteous (!) soul about the sins of the
: Southern people. The government
. can take care of itself without your
help, and will never thank you, much |
less jmij you for your “years of unpaid
toil.” Go home, and may joy go with
you, and peace will he left behind you.
A Rad ical Editor INufiutled.
Smuj-ze, the editor of the American
Union, publish* and at Macon, Ga., con
fesses tlial certain scenes and occur
rences connected with his party in
Bibb County, “ought to disgust any bo
dy that have any decency left in them/';
He says he has “abundant cause for
being disgusted with the negro,” who,
“dolled with a little brief authority
has been cutting such fantastic tricks
before high Heaven, as to make” even
the Radicals weep! Swayze very
appropriately quotes the quaint old
proverb, “Put a beggar on horse-back,
and he will ride to the devil,” and ap
plies it to the high Sheriff of Bibb,
(colored,) who has been cutting up
generally, and who seems to comider
himself “monarch of all he surveys.”—
Go it, Ouffee ! If they will give you
rope enough you will hang yourself,
and so will your party. We admire
the candor of the editor of the Union,
and have no doubt but that he has
been very “well raised,” nud his “de
parture” from “the way he should S°”
is the result of circumstances, and ou
ly temporary. It is a good rule to
have “a place for everytniug, and have
everything in its place.” Cuffee has a
jJaee, and should stay in it, and his
j/ace is certainly not in office, where he
Cau “lord it” over decent white folks.

'Trip to Cherokee, (*eori?ta.
Politic's and other matters being
! gener lly dull, it is thought that a few
lines ceiicerning om trip to Polk coun
’ty last week might interest some of
I our readers. Through the the courte
sy of t v Governor Blown, President of
the W. Ad A. R. R. Com pan , we got
from A lania to Cnrtersville utterly re
g trdlehH of < xjKinses. On arrival at
this i-omt, the Rev. Sain. Smith, of tin*
! Curtersville Expresa, met us by proxy,
at the depot, and had us conducted to
his hospitable residence. Thomas
Gibs in, lwp, who is the far Main of
the Express office, did the honors of
the o<*casion in a style that reflected
honor, not only upon himself, but tip
lon Pro. Smith. For cleverness and
go<xl feeling commend ns to Sam.
Smith.
Aud uow * few words in behalf of
CAKTKKbVILKE.
Few places in Georgia have made
such rapid stiides in piogrcssive in
dus ry nnd prosperity as Uarters
vilie, the new county seat of Bartow
county. Although a prosperous vil
lage before the war, yet Sherman’s ar
my destroyed the town, and when
peace came, there wus scarcely one
•tone standing upon another to mark
the place. Now there is a population
of aU<ut 3,000, und it is constantly in
creasing. Their uew Court House is
a splendid tnick building, covered with
slate, and built after the most approv
ed style of modern architecture. The
jail now being erected at a cost of
about $15,000, is, perhaps, the best
jail house iu the State, und when com
pleted will defy the ingenuity of the
most expert jail-breakers. The car
factory is in successful oj»eratiou, and
is at the present time filling a large or- j
der for the Western A Atlantic Rail- j
road Company. Scofields Iron Works |
are doing a large business. There is
also a large wagon and buggy rnanu- j
factory, and rnuuy other industrial en
terprises. j
A remarkable feature of Cartens
vilie society is, that almost all the men
are preaeheis. As an illustration,
take the Curtersville Express’ editori
ul corps, Sam. Smith, the head of the j
concern, is a popular and active
preacliei; Col. Watt Harris, second in j
command, is a preacher; Mr. Brews- |
ter is also a preacher, und Tommy I
Gil won, local and foreman of the of- 1
fie**, is studying for the ministry. In
the other avocatious of life the preach
er element is predominant. In fact, 1
most uli the people there are preach- !
ers; .ind Mr. Hudgins has a preuebers’
private entry to ins grocery. We saw
two men there who were not preach
ers; one was Judge Parrott, but he ex
horts frequently, and is powerfully!
•gifted” in prayer. The other was
Col. Crawford, more generally known j
as the Baiou Rothehild, of America;
but he carries (financially) several
churches upou Ins broad shoulders.—-
So tiiat, take •ai tersville all in all, she
has probably more advantages in the
way of ibe “means of grace” than any
other town in the State.
Fiom Carters ville we penetrated the
interior, by men in* of Gen. Roberts’
blood. (1 horse express, to the nucieut
town oi \ a;. \\ lil, forimrly the Capitol
of lVlk county, passing through a por
tion of the rich valley of the beautiful
Etowah, and occasionally touching the
ferule lands of Euharlec Creek. Our
first stopping ph.ee was the village of
Rock Mull, Witicu is the epot station
on the Cartersville & Cherokee Rail
road, fur the blute Quarries of Polk.—
Hero we slopped and made a hasty in
spection of the quaims and the oper
ation of the workmen. The supply of
slate is in. xhuustable; the quality
equal to any of the slate banks in this
count:}, and the facilities of getting it
to nttukel will soou l*e such as to ena
ble the proprietors to successfully com
pete with any slate market in the
world. The slate property iu that vi
cinity is mainly owned by Col. Seu
boru Junes, Mr. Jus. F. Dever, Judge
Loehiane, E. J. Dupree and Mr.
Whitehead, of Van Wert. The new
Euiiioad will be completed to the
mines iu about one month, and will be
through to the Selma & Rome Rail
road by Christmas. At the preseut
time there are about three hundred
hands at woik, and the grading is
nearly done. The cross-lies are most
ly puivli std, and everything is mov
ing forward rapidly. Fourteeu miles
of the road is now iu operation, and
doing a good business. The whole
road is to be on the three foot gauge,
and will doubtless prove a good pay
ing investment. This is one of Mr. H.
I. Kimball’s numerous enterprises.—
The new village of lk>ck Mart is build
ing up quite rapidly, and is destined
to be a town of grent importance, as
the slate men are going to put large
forces at work iu the quarries us soon
as the cars run to the place. We
were very hospitably entertained at
this place by Mrs. Cox, who keeps a
good hotel, and thoroughly under
stand.-. the business. W 7 heu she gets
her house completed she will be as
well prepared to entertain travelers as
country hot. 1 we know of. The
site ol the tillage is vety happily locat
ed on the banks of Euhariee Creek,
which furnishes nn abundance of pure
swift running water. The business
part of the town is rather low r and fiat,
but can be easily drained; while close
by, are beautiful, gently, undulating,
dry uplands, that will suit exactly for
residences. There is little doubt that
quite a large town will grow up sjieed
lly at this point. The Gibson Broth
ers are about starting a newspuper
here, and we will bet our bottom dol
lar it will be a live, wide awake oon
ceru,
VAN WEKT.
At this ancient village we met sever
al of the old inhabitants, and found
them, pretty generally, quite hospita
ble and uot at all fastidious as to whom
; they would “take something” with I
Among the celebrities here, we found
Brig. Gen. Mat. Ware, who command
ed a fume m the Confederate Army,
which was jierhaiw ns efficacious ns
any brigade iu the army. Gen. Ware.
! like Gen. Jackson, never paid much at
■ ten Hon to superior orders, but “run
{.his own schedule,” nnd never had
much trouble with his prisoners.
AN ORIGINAL WHIG.
f Here we found oue of uature’s own
noblemen, in the person of Judge 1).
D. Heslip, who is an original ’Whig
; and just oue hundred ami on yeears
old! 'i’ls© Judge is oue of the found
j ers of the Republic of Polk, and looks
\ back with pride to that good old time
when Polk was a thorough-going
, Whig county. He says he went to the
Democracy under protest, and only
wheu the Whig party went to pieces
But he says that now the ouiv chance
is the Conservative Democracy of the
i country. The old gentleman contin
ues to read the best papers in the
country, pays all his debts, and keeps
a clear conscience. Whenever he feels
like it, he takes a solid pint of pure
corn juice that “never swam the
branch,” and still he always keeps his '
head perfectly level. He is an old I
fashioned primitive Baptist, nnd al- !
ways means what he says. May he j
live another hundred years and remain
“pert.” Van Wert is so near the De
pot and slate works that it will un
questionably reap much benefit from
the new Railroad aud tho extensive
working of the slate quarries.
Leaving our old Whig friend and
Gen. Ware, and the widow Cox and
many other good citizens with regret,
we retraced our steps toward Carters
ville. Three miles from Rock Mart we
came across the
CAVE OF MACHPELAH,
or some other wonderful cave. The
entrance is directly on tha highway, j
and is so small that the visitor has to
“coon it” for several yards in order to
get in. A stiff breeze of cool fresh air
is constantly pouring forth from this
aperture, and a first class chill can be
realized here in a few minutes the hot
test day that comes along. Burning
with cariosity to explore this wonder
ful curiosity, we peremptorily ordered
our trusty squire, Tommy Gibson, to
‘go in.' Tommy always obeys orders,
and iu the twinkling of an eye he dis
appeared into tho bowels of the moun
tains. He was gone so loug that we
began to have apprehensions for his
safety, but he finally re-appeared in a
blaze of excitement at the wonders he
beheld. He spok© of large and beau
tiful halls and chambers, of st ilactities,
and all the gorgeous paraphernalia of
wonderful ancient caverns. He said
there was no end to the number of !
rooms, iu fact, he declared the whole
mouutaiu was hollow aud honey comb
ed with apartments. He searched dil
ligently for the bones of the venerable
late Mrs. Sarah Abraham, but couldn’t
Had nary bone. As Tommy is going
to write a book about this wonderful
cave we won’t give any further descrip
tion, but leave the leader to wait pa
tiently for the forthcoming work.
Leaving ‘Machpelab’ we progressed
to Curtersville with great dispatch and
without further adventure. At tins
thriving city we found Col. Barn net t,
Stale Agricultural Lecturer, and Col.
Tom Howard, oi Atlanta, talking ag
riculture to u largo audience of intelli
gent Bat tow fanners. Thence to At
lanta in one of Joe Brown’s elegant
sleeping cars, and onward home.
CHOPS ON THE LINE.
Wheat crop very light, almost a
failure m many localities; corn good,
< ottou almost a failure above Mariet
ta. Clover fine, und a great deal be
ing sown. This seems to be one of
t he greatest and important crops
in Cherokee Georgia. Large urnount
of lumber, shingles, slate, &c., passing
on the Cherokee R ul.oad. Country
prosperous; laud high: farming stock
good and plenty, in fact, we look up
on this section as most highly favored
in most every respect, and doubtless
destined to be very thickly settled.
A Goon Citizen Gone. —While read
ing our noon dispatches yesterday, we
were startled by noticing in the ac
count of the collision on the Louisville
and Nashville Road that “Dr. Jumes
Thomftß, of Rome, Ga., was fatally
wounded.” We supposed at first that
it was Dr. Jas. D. Thomas alluded to,
but found that he was in Chattooga
county at present. We then supposed
it must be Dr. I. A. Thomas.
A little later the following dispatch
was handed us, which was received at
2 o’clock, p. m. :
Louisville, Ky., Sept. 8,1871.
Maj. B. F. Jones Dr. Thomas was
killed in a collision last night. Will
send his body by express.
R. M. Jones.
Still later Mr. Green received a dis
patch from the Superintendent of the
road which settled all doubts as to the
identity of the dead man. It was Dr.
I. A. Thomas.
His family are in Cartersville at
present. Mr. Green telegraphed to
them and they ordered tho body to be
sent to C rtersvillf.
Dr. Thomas had a large lot of New
York exchange with him. They with
all his other effects are safely stored in
the cit y infirmary.
The whole city will be shocked at
the news of this sad accident. Dr.
Thomas was one of our leading men
and respected by all who kui w him.—
Rome will feel his loss very sensibly.
[Home Commercial.
No nicer nor cleverer gentleman have we
ever known than Dr. I. A. Thomas. Pioua
and exemplary in life, honent and upright
in his dealings, benevolent, kind to the
poor, sympathetic in heart, charitable to
ward* benevolent institutions, agreeable in
conversation, hospitable and courteous at
his board aud in the family circle, affection
ate in all his relationships, and truly devo
ted, in extraordinary degree, to bis wife and
children, which was equally reciprocated
by them. In the midst of life and hope, he
lias been gathered to his Father’s in Heav
en. His family /»nd friend* weep not as
those without hope.
