LOCAL ITEMS.
Tho interest at our approaching Fair
would be very much enhanced if our
ladies would kindly consent to bring
with them their paintings, pictures, and
engravings. These, hung along the
walls of the buildings, would be, not
only ornamental, but highly interest
ing, and would be admired qy thou
sands of spectators. We would re
spectfully ask the ladies, therefore, to
bring their paintings, &c., for they
would be the very poetry of the exhibi
tion—would be to the Fair what the
roses, pinks and dahlias are to a lady’s
llower garden.
There is a settled conviction on the
minds of our citizens that the pond in
front of Judge Stokely’s residence, is
becoming malarious, and unhealthy.
At its first formation (for the ground
used to be cultivated) it was not re
garded as sickly, but the continued
rains have washed so much filth into
it, there is now no doubt that it pro
duces sickness. The unpleasant odor
arising from it is proof of its poisonous
qualities; hence it should by all means
be drained s soon ae cold weather sets
in, say about December Ist. It can be
easily drained, and at a small cost, and
will be oue of the best sanitary moves
our Town Council can make. After
draining .and filling up, it could be con
verted into a most beautiful Park.—
The water oak would grow most luxu
riantly, and a circular row planted on
the present water-level, and soats plac
ed under them, would be a healthful
resort for our people of afternoons and
evenings. Let the ground be laid off
in walks and sown down with blue
grass, and such a lovely place we would
iiave. It would be the most attractive
place in town. Our place is already
large enough to feel the want of some
public grounds, beautified, as a resort
for our people. We hope the authori
ties will take the matter in*hand.
We are having splendid sunny weath
er; good for cotton and fodder. We
Would suggest to farmers the urgent
necessity of thoroughly sunning their
wheat.
Our friends in and out of town seem
very much interested in the Fair
ground. It is now quite a resort in
the afternoons, especially for those who
love to see fine horses move around the
smootlie track, at an exciting pace. —
We have quite a number of fleet trot
ters, which we predict will be hard to
Feat, by horses from a distance, which
will be on tho ground in large numbers
during Fair week.
One of the most exciting spectacles
to be seen at our Fair, will be the
Tournament.. Quite an array of our
best riders are now practicing for this
pageant. It will remind us of an old
European custom in the days of chiv
alry, when Bois de Gilbert, the Black
Prince, Richard Coeur de Lion, Ivan
hoe, and such worthies, as valiant
Knights who were ready to fight for
the Holy Cross, or ride en tournament,
for the prize, or crown of victory, to be
laid upon the champion's brow by “ye
gentle ladies,” who always assembled
to behold the tilts of the noble Knights.
Cotton in demand at 15J for good.

Here’s a Chance. —Our worthy young
friend, Simon Liebman, says that he
will bet our New York i-nan SIO,OOO,
that Napoleon will nc* dictate terms
to King William in Berlin, in ninety
days, but that King William will, ere
long, dictate terms to Napoleon in
Paris.
Our New Town Hall, we are glad to
learn, is attracting some attention
abroad, as we are credibly informed
that SSOO rent has been offered for it,
this winter, by a, company from below,
for a skating rink.
The question is often asked,
are Cherokee Georgia lands good for
raising cotton. We saw a sample
stalk, containing 233 pods, blossoms
and squares, which was grown, this
season, on the plantation of Mr. A. Y.
Brumby, just below Cartersville, on the
Etowali river. We further learn that
he has fifty acres of the same sort left
growing in his patch. If any body is
incredulous, let them step around to
Col. J. W. Harris 5 patch, Jliere in
town, and pass judgment upon it.
JS&** Col. Peck exhibited to us, a
few days since, a specimen of lime
from his new kiln, which he has just
opened in the side of Hendrix moun
tain, in sight of Cartersville, which, to
our eye, is a very superior article, and
bids fair to be very profitable.
Wonder, who’ll have the patriot
ism to servo us in the next Legislature
from tiiis county, if the dear people
should elect them, in November ? Don’t
all speak at once.

John C. and Mrs. Margaret Sims.
“ lie took the cup of life to s'p,
But bitter ’tvvas to draw;
He meekly put it from his lips,
And went to sleep again. ’
Our right hand bower, Mr. Joel
Thomas Gibson, has left us and lied
to the mountains of Hepsedam, where
ho can snuff the mountain breeze, and
where the woodbine twineth around
the old oak tree—that is he has gone
to Griffin, to come back no more until
he accomplishetli that whereinto he
hath gone, and that is to see his father
and mother, and any body else, who
wants seeing. His visit has no con
nection with any matrimonial alliance,
as some are want to think, but is one
of purely a vifsitorial character.
Our very clever brother and
friend, Mr. Rufus A. Howard, present
ed us with a very fine watermellon,
on Tuesday last, of the rattlesnake
species, which he raised on his farm
on the Etowah river, just below the
W. & A. R. R. bridge, which will suc
cessfully rival the sand hills of lower
Georgia. He had about 1| acres in
mellons this season, from which he has
derived a handsome income.
Col. Abda Johnson, of our town,
has got a couple of Berkshire pigs,
which were presented to him by a
friend; if they continue to grow, will
rival the famous ox, on exhibition in
Atlanta, some few weeks since.
In looking over portions of
Bartow county, of late— (rough at a
venture, mil say it,) candour compells
us to say, that, we believe that cur
farmers will make tolerably fair corn
and cotton crops, this season.
Patrons, Friends, Debtors,
and Well-Wishers : Hear, us for
our cause and be silent that you may hear;
we want Greenbacks and Greenbacks we
must have, to carry on our business. We
have discharged our part of the contract,
and now we call, on you to do likewise —we
make this appeal to those who are owing us.
We clout wish to hurt any one’s feelings, but
must have money or discontinue our business,
the latter alternative we have no idea of sub
mitting to, so, in order that we may contin
ue to be friends, call and pay up.
to adapt my business to the necessities of
my customers, I have been supplying them,
from my Stalls with fresh meats on a credit,
until my capital in about exhausted, and I
wish to reblenish my stock, ail who are thus
indebted to me will please call and settle up
and take anew start. T will devote Mon
day next, at my Btall on Maine street, to
settling up old scores. A. A. DOBBS.
jg&gf-Mr. Wm, Davis is now offering to
sell his elegant residence, in this place, as
will be seen from our advertising columns. —
It is a two story house, commanding loca
tion, beautiful grounds, and well adapted
for a private boarding house.
John W. Shepherd has our
thanks for the present of a lot of fine, lus
cious pears, of his own raising. Mr. S. is
an active farmer and fruit grower, as his
products very satisfactorily show.
—Cartersville has risen, since the war,
from debris and ashes to a live, prosperous
town—from a population of less than 700 to j
a miniature city of 2240 souls, and, like the s
j proud bird of liberty, her course is stiff on- j
ward and upward.
—Owing to the extraordinary highness of
J the bids made, by different contractors, to
j build our county jail, our worthy Ordinary,
i J. A. Howard, Esq., has wisely concluded
to defer further operations in that direction
until next spring, and has ordered a tax. for
couuty purposes, to be levied and collected
of 125 per cent, on the State Tax, which is
$5 on the SIOO0 —the State Tax is $4 on
the SIOOO, making in all, State and County,
$9 on the SIOOO, which pays the county out
of debt and pays current expenses, and then,
makes the building of the jail a specialty for
next year, whereas, if it should be built at
this time, county taxes would have been
more than doubled.

greater voting population than any other

jgggT’Not much is said about it, but the
Messrs. Gouldsmiths—that is William, the
father, and Theodore, the son, are as fine
Cabinet Makers as the State of Georgia can
boast of. Their furniture is all well put up,
and tlieir repairing unsurpassed. We got
them to repair some of onr old furniture,
which had been broken and scarified from
refugeeing, during the war, and it now looks
as well as it did when^new.
finest and most desirable Sewing
Machine that we have yet seen in Carters

that any lady who sees them will want one.

Merited Compliment*.
At the banquet given by Mr. H. I.
Kimball on Wednesday afternoon last
to the delegates attending the State
Agricultural, and State Democratic
Conventions, at “Oglethorpe Park,”j
the following handsome and merited
compliments were paid to that gentle
man : We copy from the Constitution: |
“Colonel Robert A. Alston arose,
and addressing President Yancey, who
was presiding at the table, said :
“I never had the pleasure, Mr.
President, of an acquaintance with
our host, whose splendid entertain
ment we are now enjoying, but what I
have seen of his acts and heard of his
bearing since he has been among us,
has all preposessed me in his favor and
secured for him a hearty welcome from
the whole community. As faintly ex
pressive of our regard for him, I beg
to offer the following resolutions ;
Resolved, That those of us here, so
splendidly and bounteously entertain
ed by our host, Mr. H. I. Kimball, re
turn our most heartfelt thanks to his
hospitality, and wish him a long career
of happiness and prosperity.
Resolved , That wc witness all around
us on tlieso beautiful grounds, the
proof of his superior management, in
dustry and skill, and we now feel as
sured that under his auspice s our next
fair is to be a brilliant success.
“Colonel T. C. Howard' said that it
afforded him unfeigned gratification to
be permitted to second the resolutions,
for,, since the very first appearance in
the city of Atlanta, Mr. Kimballs
public spirit, complete and unaffected,
mdentifying his fortunes with the
South, he had inspired confidence and
secured the heartiest welcomes. Such
a course as he had nobly illustrated
would do more to reunite the North
and South than a thousand years of a
thousand reconstruction committees.
If men would come as he did, there
would, and could be, no end to the
fraternal feeling that would greet them
and make them feel that indeed this
was their home. The example of Mr.
Kimball was the truest solution of the
reunion of the States, and would that
more would imitate it.”
“Colonel Howard was followed by
Mr. Rim ball, Governor Brown, and
Colonel T. Hardeman. The latter
gentleman’s speech called for repeated
applause. He fully sustained his repu
tation as a speaker.”
In referring to the same banquet on
yesterday, the following was written,
but owing to the great pressure upon
our columns was omitted in our issue
of that day :
The liberality and public spirit of
Mr. Kimball in affording the distinguish
ed visitors to our city an opportunity
of examining the progress made in
preparing the grounds of Oglethorpe
Park, for the use of the next State
Fair, was gratefully acknowledged by
the large crowd of visitors that accept
ed his invitation. They will return to
their homes with pleasant memories of
this excursion, and prepared to advise
their fellow citizens of tliO magnitude
of the preparations now being made
to insure the success of the next re
union of the great interests of the
people of Georgia. — Atl. hit.
The OpiiiiMg Campaign.
The fight has commenced. Already,
old politicians are furbishing up the
Swallow-tail coat of state, and having
the stunning beaver-hat dusted, pre
paratory to attending the Nominating
Conventions. Already the country
people are beginning to loaf about the H
fences and stop their neiglibdfci who
are coming from town, to get the
news. Scaffoldings are being arranged
for stump speakers, barbecues are be
ing talked of, canvassers for the differ
ent Districts are being selected, and
speakers are brushing the cobwebs
from the corners of their brain cham
bers, arranging blood -and - thunder
phrases and collecting a fund of side
splitting anecdotes for the benefit of
the people. Political aspirants are be
coming professionally polite ; news
papers are becoming “red hot;” Com
mitteemen becoming excited and flur
ried ; your “Boating voter” is getting
bids for his vote ; your loafing voter’s
nose is getting red with persuasive
whisky ; your colored voter’s head is
getting muddled by approaching
responsibilities, and every voter is
conscious that the time is coming wlien
he must exercise the glorious privilege
of the ballot.
As to the prospects of the two par
ties in tiiis State there can be no
doubt. The Democrats will win by a
rousing majority.
A large majority of the next Legisla
ture will be Democratic. Almost all
cf the counties will elect Democratic
county officers. Five out of seven of
the Democratic Congressmen to be
elected will be Democratic, provided
Democrats do their duty.
This District will send a Democrat.
The 6th District, now represented by
Col. Christy, will send another. The
Third, (Mr. Tift’s district) will send
still another. Out of the other four
wo will.gain at least two.
As to our own District, it is triumph
antly Democratic. Gen. Young was
elected by about 6,000 majority. Every
thing promises a brilliant victory !
Our forces are undergoing thorough
organization; the party is planted npon
a popular platform; our newly selected
leaders are cautious and active ; and
“every thing is lovely and the goose
hangs high.”— Rome. Commercial'.
Jack Bibbs fell in love with a maid,
each night ’neath her window he stood;
and there, with his soft serenade, he
awakened the whole neighborhood!
But vainly he tried to arouse her from
sleep, with sweet strains so bewitching;
while he played in front of the house,
she slept iu the little back kitchen.
CHOLERA.
HOW TOfcUBE IT.
At the commeuceuient of the Diarrhoea,
which always precedes an attack of the
Cholera, take a teaspoonful of the Pain Kill
er in sugar and water, (hot, if convenient,)
and then bathe freely the stomach and bow
els with the Pain Killer clear. Should the
diarrhoea or cramps continue, repeat the
dose every ten or fifteen minutes until tho pa
tient is relieved. Iu extreme cases, two or
more teaspoonsful may be given atji dose.
The Pain Killer, as an internal rrmedy
has no eq.tial. In cases of Cholera, Summer
Complaints, Dyspepsia, Dysentery, Asthma,
it cures in one night, by taking it internally,
and bathing with it freely. Its action- is
like magic, when externally applied to old
Sores, Burns, Scalds, and Sprains. For
Sick Headache and Toothache, don’t fail to
try it. In short, it is a Pain Killer.
Directions acoompany each bottle.
The Pain Killer is sold by all dealers in
Medicine.
Price, 25 cents, 50 cents, and $1 yer bottle.
Sinking Slowly.
Diseases that progress rapidly to a crisis
are not the only ones to be dreaded. Cank
er or dry rot does not blast a tree as suddenly
ais a stroke of lightning, but unless arrested,
it destroys it as certainly; and in like man
ner chronic debility, although it does not
kill with the swiftness of yellow fever, is as
sure to sap the springs of life eventually as
any acute disease, if not checked by invigo
rating medication. There is something in
expressibly touching in the spectacle of pre
mature decay. Langour, pallor, emacia
tion, depression of spirits,'and a distaste for
exertion, are its ordinary symptoms, and
they should be promptly met by £onic treat
ment. The best invigorant arid exhilarant
that can be administered in a case of this
kind is Hostctter's Stomach Bitters. The
stimulating principle of tho prcpai’alion
rouses the dormant energies of the system,
and the strengthening and regulating pro
perties give a permanent and healthful im
pulse to the vital forces thus brought into
play. The failing appetite is re-awakened,
the process of digestion End assimilation are
quickened, the quality of the blood is im
p;*pved, the secretions b come more natural,
and overy or gall that contributes to the
nourishment of the body undergoes salutary'
change. By these means the repair of the
physical structure is effected iu its health
and vigour restored. In no class of diseases
has the benificent operation of the Bitters
been more marked and striking than in
those characterized by general debility and
nervous prostration. Ladies affected with
these ailments find in this most wholesome
of all tonics and correctives the safest and
surest means of relief. It is strong to re
store and powerless to injure. Such is the
testimony of “clouds of witnesses.”

must purchase from responsible Southern nur

as these Northern men. Policy alone would in
duce us to do an honorable business. Our suc

, COMMOM GROG-SHOP BITTERS.
Empty Bitter Bottles, of various styles, can be
found around almost every dwelling and cabin
throughout the land. Their taste is pleasant,
and are advertised to cure almost every disease,
while the manufacturers know thev possess no
"medicinal properties whatever. They are so
many disguises for exceeding/i/ common beverages
which do not. nor cannot possibly cure any one.
Beware of these pleasant bitters in quart bot
tles, they contain a sting for your vitals, and he
w ho buys them carries a “toper’s grog” into his
house. One man who knows nothing about me
dicine, says bis big bottles of common stuff will
cure chills and fever, rheumatism and consump
tion; another, whose bottles are. very fanev,
cures all the Impurities of the blood, makes old
men young, casts out devils, restores sight to
the blind, and numerous other miracles; while

of a regular course of medicine.

This is the celebrated medicine that run Perry
Davis’Pain Killer out of the market, wherever
it was sold. Davis made Prophitt change the
name from Pain Killer to PAIN KILL IT.

For Cuts, Bruises, Burns, or old Sores, it is the
best thing you can use as a dressing.
For Bnake Bites or Stings of Poisonous Insects,
it is a perfect ANTIDOTE.
It is good for Golie, Golds, Coughs, or Bowel
Complaints, Its name indicates its nature fully,
it is truly DEATH to pain.

This is to certify that L was confined to the
house, and most of the time to my bed, and suf
fering the greatest agony imaginable with Rheu
matism, for live mouths, and after trying every
available remedy, with no relief, 1 was cured
with two bottles of Dr. O. 8. Proplutt’s Anodyne
Pain Kill It; each costing fifty cents only, it
relieved me almost instantly. I therefore re
commend it iu the highest degree to others suf
fering from similar disease. 1 can say that it is
one of the finest Family Medicines now out, cer
tain. Yours, truly, W. A. FOREHAND.
