|HE SEMI-WEEKLY EXPRESS. J ' w. HARRIS' \ *• »• BMwJtkr, | Editors and Proprietors. H%- Ihe Fall T*rm of the Superior ourt of ibis couuty is now in session, i ' s Judge Parrott presiding.— Many eminent gentlemen of the pro fession are i n attendance, among whom we are pleased to recognize Messrs. N ’shit and Jackson of Macon, and the Hon. Wm. Dougherty, besides the Hon. J. W. H. Underwood, Dub- Johnston, Dodson aud Graham, as also the Hon. G. D. Rice and General Clanton from Alabama. The Court room on yesterday and the day before Wus crowded with a large audience drawn by the argument of the distin guished Counsel iu the case of the Stute of Alabama, vs. the Alabama & Chattanooga Railroad Company, J. C. Stanton and others; a bill filed for In junction, and the appointment of a Receiver, Ac. It will be recollected th.kt by Act of the Leg Is) t ure of this State, the State of Alabama was au thorized, on certain conditions, to run the Alabama k Chattanooga Road through the county of Dade, in the the State of Georgia, and that the Georgia also endorsed bonds at the rate of SB,OOO per. mile in fur therauce of the object reserving to her self ou certain contingencies the right lo seize that portion of the'roud lying in Dade, and appropriate it by sale or otherwise to the security of her en dorsement. In pursuance of this ob ject the seizures have been made under a proclamation of Governor Bullock, of all that portion of the road, togeth er with three engines aud thirty-four cars, together with all the fixtures and property of the road lying in said county of Dade, thus causing a com plete blockade to all the operations of the road. Iu addition to this, a mul titude of fi fas at the instance of pri vate creditors have beeu levied upon the same, by the Sheriff of Dade coun- i ty, thus increasing the difficulties sur rounding this unfortunate railroad en terprise. Iu consequence of the bad faith of the Stantons, like d.fficulties have occur red in the States of Teunssee, and Mis sissippi, aud AJabaraa. The Gover nor of Alabama has sezied the'roaa ly ing in the borders of his State, and ap plications for Injunction, and the ap pointments of Receivers in the States of Mississippi and Tennessee have beeu made by him and granted by their respective Courts, and now to the end that Alabama may have all the difficulties removed out of her way; so that the road may be completed aud successfully prosecuted, it was necessary that the like implication should be made in, and granted by the Cwiirts of Georgia. For this purpose the hill was filed, and the elaborate and able argument held by the emi nent Counsel employed. After a pa tient hearing his Honor Judge Parrott verv properly, as we think, granted the prayer of the hill, ruc! Las appoint ed Gen. Wm. T. Wofford of this conn ty Receiver. It is to be hoped that this great en terprise may now be peAutted to Work out its legitimate, grand results* Any forcing of the road into bank ruptcy, or further hindering or delay ing its completion and prosecution is much to be deplored, and we can see no good reason, why, under the man agement and arrangements of the parties now in possession, all difficul ties may not be indefinitely postponed. We think we may, iu advauco, guar antee that Gen. Wofford will use all his energy and influence in that direc tion, consistent with the duties of his now poaitiou. The arguments of the Counsel were all able aud interesting" and the decision of his Honor, prompt, and as we understand, satisfactory to the Complainants, and the Creditors in fi. fa. A Riding Machine. We noticed quite a novelty in town to-day. It was a riding machine, consisting of a number of hobby-horses suspended in the air by iron rods, and made to re volve with great rapidity by a person turning a crack‘in the centre. Many boys, and some men, were enjoying rides on the fancy wooden horses at 1 ten cents apiece. When we first saw it, we thought it was a model circus, and then we thought it was a model threshing machine, but it turned out to be neither, and we hud no use fo r it. Wonder if some genius can’t in vent a machine, on the same principle, to run a hobby in a strait line? Wouldn’t it be nice to go flying a long on a wooden horse, at the rate of ten miles an hour! Cjdnsel in State Road Investiga tions. —We understand Governor Bul lock has employed as counsel in the prosecution of parties engaged in the State Road swindles Hon. Benj. H. Hill, of Athens; Hon. J. W. H. Un derwood, of Rome, together with At torney General Farrow, of this city.— Constitution. The Mfell»od«t Advocate. \ ! The politico-ecclesiastical Radical sheet bearing the above title, says: I “The Erprexs proves that the ‘Man of Staw,’ is a genuine, live Secession id(!Y' Secession, then, is what you [are fighting, is it? We thought “the colored troops fought nobly,” and whipped that years ago! You must jhe fighting the dead carcass of £ Seces sion—a live ass kicking a dead lion ! It further s-iys: “If the Express is ; capable of answering us, why does it not do so ?” We confess our inability j to answer certain persons effectually, exe pt in the way which the wise man j directs. The Advocate < alls us “thieves aod i robbers,” says “the negroes were stolen from Africa in the first place,” and when we a*k who stole them, and sold them to us, and what has become of the money, why does it not answer ! us, if it is capable ? The editor of the Advocate informs us that he is at home, as much so as any one in the State 1 “Home, home, sweet, sweet home, Be it ever so humble, there is no place like .homo.” We hope he is well pleased with his new home. “Lives there a mar with soul so dead, Who never to himself hath said, This is my own, my uative land ?” He says the Express will evidently need his help for some time to come! “Thankful for past favors we solicit a continuance of the same !” “Our calling,” he says, “is to guide the simple and erring into the paths of righteousness” (!) None but the simple and weak would f >llow’ such a guide, we are sure, and into the ditch both leader aiid flock are bound to fall. The Advocate will be apt to with* draw its rays of “Northern light’’ when the fleece shall be well secured. It begs pardon, and thinks the Ex press is not the sort desired in the “mother Church 1” Says it ivants ‘‘ souud, sensible and pious members, who will iive peaceably under the gov ernment.” Is that the sort you have been Hiking up, and absorbing ever since the war ? If so, we prefer to live outside, and will pardon you for refusing to take us in, as you request. It declines that “complexion is of but liitle moment,” and if it was, it “would hardiy kuow how to class the Express ” That declaration, we have no doubt, is true iu part-, but our taste is a little different as regards complex ion. We have no difficulty iu know ing how to-class the Advocate, “You may break, you may shatter The vase if you will, But the scent of the roses \V ill hang round it still!” The Summer is Ended. The Summer is ended, and “The melancholly days have come, The saddest of the year.” And yet, with all its melancholy as sociations, we love the Autumn season. Wo lo\e to behold nature in its matu rity; we love to hear the music of the Autumnal breezes which shake the rat tling nuts to tLe ground, and gently divest the forest trees of their crimson robes. And we love to think that the trees will be arrayed in beautiful ver dure again, when the Winter shall have come and passed away; aud we love to know that we, too, sli ill be re invested- with life, tho’ “we do fade as the leaf.” and shall pass like Autumn leaves away. “Our life is like the Autumn leaf, That trembles in the moon’s pale ray; Ite hold is frail its date is brief, Restless, and soon to pasiß away.” How beautiful is Autumn! how glorious its sun-sets, which tinge the clouds with purple aud golden hues, blended as the colors of the rainbow ! And how pleasant its moon-light nights, as we walk abroad to enjoy the balmy air, and to behold the silent ! beauties aud wonders of nature around and above us! And yet, at such times there will come over us “A feeling of sadness and longing That is not akin to pain. And resembles sorrow only As the mist resembles the rain.’* Many fond remembrances are re vived by this season of the “sear and yellow leaf,” and many a sad heart may find utterance in the following beautiful lines: “They are fading, they are dyiug, Buds and blossoms of the past; And the Autumn wind is sighing, As they flutter in the blast. Mournfully our hearts are sighing, To the wind’s sad wail replying, While the tears are falling fast. One by one the leaves are falling, Brown and withered, dark and sere; In onr soul, oh ! thought appalling i ’Tis the autumn of the year.; All the glorious past recalling, While the leaves around us falling Warn us that it is not here. Where are now the tones, whose music We may never hear again ? Where the loviug smiles whose glory Was like sunshine after rain? Ah ! the olden, olden story Conned from youth to age so hoary, We shall yearn for them in vain. How we cheriah every token ! How the mem’ries round us cling Os the loving words once spoken. Os the songs they used toeing. Ah ! we kaow, by many a token, All the flowers are crushed and broken, Withered in their blossoming. ! Cartf.rsvii.le Loogk No. 101, F. ft A. M. ) l Caktfrsvillk, Ga., Sept. 15th, A. i>. 1871 > A. L. 5871. > In the providence of Almighty God, our brother, I. A. Thomas, has been stricken down in the midst of his use fulness and active benevolence. We bow in humble submission to this sad dis pensation by which our Order has lost one of its brightest jewels and brought sorrow to his bereaved widow and mother, deem it therefore proper that we should offer them our heartfelt sympathies; Be it therefore Rrsolved, That, in the death of brother Thomas, the Lodge has lost a true and zealous Mason, the Church one of its brightest ornaments, and society one of her best citizens, a kind and de voted- * husband and an affectionate father. Resolved, That we, as a Lodge, deeply sympathize with his widow and and sorrowing relatives, in this sudden dispensation of providence. “He rests from hislabors, farewell for a time; Through the last ceremonials solemn, sub lime; Os that higher degree you have now passed before, PSWe must soon follow,imnst pass through the door Os death, into scenes most enchautingly bright, To the throne of Jehovah, whose presence is light.” Resolved, That the jewels and fur niture of the Lodge be draped in mourning 30 days and a blank page upon the minutes be inscribed to his memory, and a copy of these resolu tions be furnished his widow and mother, and that they be published in the Cartersville papers. SAMU'L H. PATTILLO, ) W. C. GREEN, J- Com. SAMU’L F. MILAM. ) f@°*The horse-men of this city have been much exercised in mind over the reported performance of the famous trotter Goldsmith Maid at Milwaukee, on Wednesday last. According to the telegraphic news received here that celebrated animal has trotted a mile in 2 minutes and 17 seconds, which, if true, beats Dexter, long the champion of the turf, one quarter of a second. It is but truth to say that there are many persons iu this city, well posted in the annals of the turf in this coun try for many years past, who refuse to believe that the Maid has made any such time. Among the doubters is Mr. Robert Bonner, the owner of Dtx ter. Mr. Bonner, it is well known, is an ardent lover of the horse. Indeed if he were not such he would not have in his stables at the present time so many equine animals which, in order to secure their ownership, he was ob liged to pay out hundreds of thousands of dollars. The forthcoming number of the New York Ledger will contain the following paragraph and extract; “Some of the daily pupers have re ported that Goldsmith Maid bus trot ted a mile iu 2:17. Everybody knows that she never saw the day she could do that without running; but even if she bai done it, it wouki leave her be hind D*.xter, for he trotted, in the presence of 20,000 people, in 2:16, al though beaten in that race by a run ning horse, who made 2:15, and there fore got the record.” She will never be Dexter’s equal, in our opinion, until she can, iu a race with a trotter and running mate supe rior to her in speed, trot a mile iu 1:16 on the Fashion Course, and repeat in 2:l7.” —Spirit of the Times. If Goldsmith Maid has really beaten Dexter’s time her owner is a fortunate man, for if she has done it once the presumption is she can do it again.— Some rime since it was reported teat Mr. Bouner stood ready to give $50,- 000 for any horse that would beat Dexter’s time in a fair, square trot of a mile. The writer is authorized in saying that, Mr. Bonner makes a much more liberal offer. This offer is as fol lows: Dexter with a road wagon aud driver (weighing together 319 pounds) behind him,, made a mile iu 2:21| about a year ago. The wagon was a road wagon, and the horse was driven by Mr. Bouner himself. The owner of Dexter says he will give SIOO,OOO for any horse that will iaulj beat thut time and under the same cirumstan ces. If the owner of the horse that beats that time is not willing to sell his animal, Mr. Bonner will give $lO,- 000 for the pleasure of seeing the feat performed. —New York World. The Cotton Crop. The Columbus Enquirer, published iu the centre of the finest cotton region in the world, still adheres to its opin ion that the glowing crop will fall much below three millions of bales. In its issue of Tuesday last we find the following : “We heard, yesterday, of a Mhsco ge * pi nlcr who made one hundred auvl twenty bales of cotton last year, who has this year planted the same laud iu cotton that he did last year, and who is offering to sell his growing crop at thirty bales at the ruliug price! Iu view of such facts as this, and of the wonderfully snort receipts as compared with the corresponding dates of last year, it is not easy to measure the faith of some men who still talk of a crop exceeding three millions of bales.” —Chronicle <fc Senti neL The Alabama and Mississippi cot ton crop prospects are said to be un favorable. The crop is variously esti mated at from half to two-thirds of 1 .st year’s yield. The Atlanta Sun brings as the ! news that the Pennsylvania Central Railroad has leased the Atlanta aud West Point Road. Jerome Napoleon Bona parte, of Paris, and Miss Caroline Le-: roy Appleton Eogar, grand daughter j of Daniel Webster, are married. After the Ist of October, the Chron-! icle and Sentinel will ©ease to ex change its daily edition with the week lies of the State, except on payment,; by tlie latter, of $5 in the shape of boot. Dexter the celebrated trotter has had hiai fastest time beaten by Gold smi.h Maid, she having trotted a mile in 2,17; eclipsing Dexters fastest time by a quarter of a second. Over 7,000,000 of barrels of fer mented liquor were produced during i the year. lffk, L >Grange, G i., rejoices in a colored bass bull ciub known as the ‘Limber Heels.” Diamonds to the value of $90,- 000 were admired on one woman at a recent Saratoga ball. It is a great waste of raw ma~ teriai to put ten dollars worth of bea ver on ten cents worth of braiu3. BgU Natur never makes any Blun ders; when she makes a phool, she means it. There were two deaths by. yellow fever in Charelston Saturday. Political advices from Pennsylvania are very encouraging to the Democra cy Thx Democratic nomination for Gov ernor of Massachusetts, has fallen up on John Quincy Aduns. tQT A minister not long ago preach ed from the text, ‘Be ye therefore stead fast,’ but the printer made him ex pound from ‘Be ye there for break fast !’ There were 235 beeves, 281 sheep, 5 calves and 4 hogs slaughtered and sold in Wilmington, North Caroli na, during the month of August. Harry—“ Your dawg is werrv thin, William.” William—“He is wer ry bud—but when he dies I am going to stuff him, Harry.” Harry (insinua tingly)—“Hadn’t you better stuff him before he dies ?” The latest telegraphic report from California is that the Legislature is very closely divided—the Democrats having a majority of two in the Sen ate, and the Radicals having a majori ty of four in the House aud of two on joint ballot.

The whole or a, half interest in the LaGrange Reporter is offered for sale. The Reporter has long been con sidered one of the best conducted and most prosperous weekly papers in the State, and is located i:a one of the most pleasant little cities of Georgia. A thoughtful observer on wo men’s rights comes to their defense ve ry effectively, as follows: “I have seen women so delicate that they were afraid to ride for fear of the horse run ning away, afraid to walk for fear the dew might fall, afraid to sail for fear the boat might upset; but I never saw one afraid to be married, which is more riskful thau all others put togeth er.” The Potato Blight in Ireland. —It is reported that the potato blight has developed to an alarming extent in Ire land, and fears are expressed that the crop m ybo entirely ruined. If this should happen, it is not unlikely that another famine may devastate Ireland and add to the many miseries of her unfortunate people. Coming l TH# GREAT 9KOVIHTG ILLtIOATED P anorama!
