The cotton ciop of this county
piovcs almost a failure. From some
travel in some of the districts, and con
versation with many of the most ob
serving, intelligent and successful ] lan
terg, the crop cannot be fairly estima
ted at more than one third. Many
pnt it and >wn at one fourth, and some al
One half, but the better and prevailing
opinion seems to lie that about one
third will be its yield. Wednesday
night brought a considerable frost, but
little or no damage could result from
i , as there is no top crop to be injur
ed by it. Truly our farmers have had j
a hard year of it. Failure of wheat,
oats, and cotton, the principal sources
of revenue, will make it difficult for
them to square up outstanding obliga
tions and pay tin enormous taxes un
der which the comity is groaning.—
There is little or no money in the
country, the people havn’t got it, and j
great forbarance one with another is
.. called for, vail able *dis
tress must ensue. We believe that a
sufficient quantity of oorn will be rais
ed for home consumption, but little or
none for sale. Let us economizo our
means, cut off unr.esesary expenses, be
furbaring one with another, pay all
that wo cau, takejjcourage for the fti
tore, trust in God, and do our duty,
and look hopefully for better times to
O' sue.
Extravagance in Dress.
The venerable Dr. Pierce has recent
ly written a number of articles for the
Southern Christian Advocate , upon dross.
His remarks are timely, sensible, prac
tical and scriptural, aud should be heed
ed by all, especially by those who pro
fess godliuess. Extravagance in dress
is certainly a great and growing evil
among our people, and the pulpit and
press should not be silent upon this
subject while so many are traveling the
broad and frequented road of fashion
to ftuaucia'l and spiritual ruin. If our
people would dress plainer, wo would
not hear so much complaint about
b*rd times, and if there were fewer ex
hibitions of fine clothes and useless
jewelry in our elm relies and Sabbath
schools, they would flourish more abun
dantly Conformity to the extrava
gant :.nd foolish fashions of the world
h; certainly contrary to the plain teach
ings of the Bible, is offensive to God;
and all who desire to be led by the
Spud, of God, should cease to follow
the blind votaries of fashion to hell.
A Rattle-Snake Killed! — While
passing the f<>rki of the roads in the
western portion of town on Wednes
day evening, a freedmau bawled out,
“here’s a ra/fte-snake 1” We immediate
ly repared to the spot, and joined our
sable friend in the fight against our
common enemy. After a short and
uligrp cnc* unttT, in which stones were
ma-d unsparingly, tho foe was render
ed “hors due combat, ’ and we left the
fold of action. His snake-ship was
about as long as a string, and as large
round the body as a potato. Sambo said
it was a ‘ground rattlesnake.’ Whence
its name we cannot tell, for every va
riety is confined to the ground, and
this one had narry rattle ! They say,
the bite of a ‘ ground rattle-sunke” is
mighty bad, and the people who live
iu the house with tbe brown borders,
hud better look out, for it seemed to
hare crawled from their yard. There
is no danger, however, now in the one
we killed, and it is to be hoped that it
is the last saipnit of the season.

in IfUMion rouiilj Tlic “At
lanta «iui Blue S2i<igc lUitlroad
i*i iiou to be Built !*’
On Wednesday Uth Sept-., pursuant
to a previous call, .an unprecedentedly
| large number of the citizens of Daw
son and adjoining counties, met in the
Court House, during the noon recess
of the Superior Com t, to consider the
! practicability of the immediate con
struction of the “Atlanta and Blue
Ridge Raihoad,” leading from Carters
: ville, Ga., through said county of Daw*
; son, to or near Rabun Gap.
On motion of Col. James M. Bishop,
IteV. Alfred Webb was called to pre
side over the meeting, and Henry C.
Johnson to act ns Secretary.
His Honor Judge P. rrotfc (holding
the Superior Court at this place for
Judge Knight,) being loudly and earn
estly called for, appeared upon the fo
rum, and favored the project in oue of
the mo>t concise, logical and convinc
ingly eloquently addresses for about one
hour it has ever been tho fortune of
our people to he.-.r upon this impor
tant subject.
The Judge demonstrated first the
absolute necessity of Railroads in gen
eral, secondly, the especial necessity
aud entire practicability of this Road,
and thirdly, the positive ability of
of those interested in this line, backed
up by State aids , to build it and to
build it promptly.
There are, perhaps, few orators in
Georgia, who have so well mastered
the science of oratory as Judge Par- !
rott, and his subject upon this occa
sion being so practical, bis effort was
beyond question a delightful succees.
The Judge dealt in facts and figures
but clotLud them in such captivating
style, that olg would seem never to
tiro.
At the coi elusion cf his speech, one
wcuki have supposed from the cheeihrig
(.hat ho was being encored.
On motion tho Chairman appointed
the fallowing gentlemen u committee
to draft and report suitable resolutions
for the action of this meeting, to wit:
B. J. Davis, Janus L. Heard, Ausbon
J. Taylor, Davis Smith, Esq., aud Hon.
John C. Richardson.
During the abscer.se of the commit
tee, the meeting was addressed by the
Her. W. P. Price, nu nbt r to Con
grtss from the 6th District, and Col.
Ephraim M. Johnson cf tho city ol
Gainsvide. Both of these gentlemen,
in a u.ost earnest and eloquent manner
advocat and tho immediate construction
of this lioad, and demonstrated its
importance and prnctic-bility.
At tho conclusion of Col. Johnson’s
sketch, the c< remittee repprted back
the following, which on motion ol Col
J mes M. Bis Lop, was received, unani
mously adopted and r* quested to be
published in the Carter ville Express
ui and Moui.t.in Sigurd, and Atlanta pa
j era requested to copy, to wit:
Y\ nureas, The construction of the
Atlanta & Blue Ridge Railroad is a
matter of the most.vital importance to
the citizens of the county of Dawson,

whenever the books be opened for that
purpose, and that vve will aid and en

Besolved, That we consider this
Road the most practicable of all the
routes projected ii to this county, and
most conducive to our future welfare
and prosperity, as cit zens and as a
county; that we consider it absolutely
necessary that we thould take hold of
the enterprise in “old fashioned” good
earnest, and that we will do bo.
Resolved, That in order to secure ac
tion, we recommend the appointment
of u committee to correspond with n
similar ci mmittee, or the local author

Tno following letter of Attor
ney-General Farrow indie ites a dnter
mi.iiition zealously to prosecute, and
to spare no proper means to fern t
out the fraudi perpetrated upon the
State Road, and to bring the guilty
parties to justice. The letter moans
business, and from our personal knowl
edge of its author, his energy and
determined will, we shall look lor a
thorngh overli ailing of the thievts aud
scoundrels who have had such a high
old time in fingering and pocketing
the earnings of the road.
We bid Col Farrow and the able
counsel he has employed, a hearty
God speed in this work of unearthing
villainy aud theft.
All persons in this county who are
aware of any frauds or crime perpetra
ted upon the road, can communicate
the same to Gen. W. T. Wofford, the
Attorney for Bartow County:
Letter from Col. 11. P. Farrow.
Ati anta, Sept. 26, 1871,
Editors Constitution: I see that some
of the papers allude to 'the multiplic
ity of counsel retained to prosecute all
persons implicated in the alleged
frauds upon the Western and Atlan
tic Railroad, and I deem it not map
propriata to give you some informa
tion upon that point. It is true that
Hon. B. H. Hill and Judge John W.
H. Underwood have been retained by
the Governor as general counsel to
aid in the trial of all parties before
the Superior Courts after bills of in
dictment shall have been found, and
all other counsel have been retained
by me in my official capacity as Attor
ney General, without dictation from
any souree. Before these bills can be
lound against any of tho parties sup
posed to be guilty of these frauds,
much work will have to be d< ue to
ward discovering and arraying the
evidences of their guilt. r Jo assist me
i:i this wok more particularly, I have
employed Captain John Miiiedge.
i Messrs. Gartrell and Stephens have
been retained in tha prosecution of
oue case only, that of Mr. McCulla,
aud wall prove peculiarly valuable to
tLe prosecution in that case.
Then there are five other caunties
on tbe lme of the road in which prose
cuts us will probably be instituted,
and winning to discharge my whole
duty iu these prosecutions, without
discriminath g for or ag .inst any i no,
i.nd without giving the wrong doers
any advantage of the State, I have
felt it my duty to retain in each one
of those counties at least one of their
must able aud successful criminal law
yers. This is a necessary precaution
from one single consideration, to-vvit :
to prevent juries from being “packed’
on us. All lawyers will concede the
folly of attempting a prosecution in a
comity where all the lawyers iu the
prosecution are strangers, no matter
now able and leaned they may be,
Local counsel must be had, or the
juries will be “packed.” This is a la
mentable fact, but it is nevertheless a
fact. From these considerations, and
none other, I have retained Hon.
George N. Lester to aid me in all ca
ses in Cobb county; General William
T. Wofford in Bartow county; Hon.
Win. H. Dabney in Gordon county,
Colonel J. A. W. Johnson in the coun
ties of Whitfield aud C itoosa, aud
Col. James H. Anderson, in Chatta
nooga.
And with a view to reaching every
alleged fraud, and bringing every
eiimiual to justice, whether lie be rich
or poor, high or low. I request all
good citizens, on tho line of the road,
who know of any improper or crimi
nal .transaction in connection with the*
said road, to ci mmuniente it either
to my associate counsel in their res
pective counties, or to me, as early as
possible.
They are retained only in their res
pective counties, aud with the aid of
gentlemen who stand so high for per
sonal integrity and professional abili
ty, I trust that the people will rest
assured that ihe prosecutions will be
faithfully conducted ngainst all par
ties, for I shall set k the aid of those
oi ly whooe past lives are a sure guar
antee (f their integrity, and whose
~) ofcß-nonal miccces is proof of their
ability.
My motives may be impugned, but
I quietly await ultm ate developments
us a triumphant vindication. It
would be detiimeutfd to tbe public
interests for me to pursue any other
course.
lleney P Farrow,
Attorney General.
Kir The Cartersville depress spells
it “pediculous.” If some smart lexicog
rapher could get up a dictionary for
the special use of some of our Georgia
editors who don’t care how they spell,
it would, perhaps, be a great conve
nience to them.

ton, Profuss-ir in the Virginia Military

he will be told: “This is Stonewall
Jackson’s old school.” The facts are
that this colored Sunday school was
organized by Stonewall Jackson when
he was Professor in the Virginia* Mili
tary Institute, that he took tho deep
est interest in its success (never going
to or from it without earnest secret
prayer) and’that when called into the
army he expi es, ed birr s If more loth o
leave his Sunday-school than any of
his other public duties. His interest
continued to the day of his death, and
he was never known to write a letter
to Lexington without making special
inquiry after his cob.red Suuday
school.—-Lexington, Va. Letter.
