HKFTKNf 2 ‘*7^1871 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. —-We bad the pleasure, a few tvenii gs since, of a call from Mr. John S.

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, aid ;he other counties through which tho road may puss, and Vi hereas, We think a well directed energy, on the part of thi se interested wdl certainly ensure its early location and con pletion. Therefore Hesolvcd, That in order to secure so desirable a result, we the citizens of Dawson county, absolutely and uncon ditionally, tender to a.iid Road the right of-way from one side cf the county to the other. » Besolved , That we will subscribe lib erally to the stock of said company, whenever the books be opened for that purpose, and that vve will aid and en courage, by all the means in our pow er. the rapid construction of the road. 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 j itif s, in ihe coon ties of Bartow, Clu-r« \ okeo, and Lumpkin. Bexolwd, That we earnestly request the citizens of said counties of B.attnv, Cherokee and Lumpkin, immediate! \ to hold public meetings in the interest of this Road, and to appoint commit tees of correspondence, that there may be harmony of action in this matter. On motion of Col. Bishop the meet ing tendered thanks t o his Honor Judge Parrott, Honorable W. P Price, and Col. E. M. Johnson for their able addresses upon this occasion.

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.
