JOHN J. UO WARD, Associate Local. LOCAL ITEMS. Evidences of energy and improve ment are quite visible in our town.— Manj r new houses are going up, and many more needed. W 7 e are growing. We already begin to feel the benefits of the Cartersville & Van Wert Rail Road. Trains twice a day unload cotton at the depot, and bring up numbers of passengers, who trade with our mer chants. “Our station” has grown into a town, and—well—we shall be larger some day, and—may be a small city; especially if the Cartersville & Van Wert Rail Road should be built East to Carter’s plantation and to Morgan ton. We are tempted to boast a trifle.— We knew that our people had vim in them, and energy enough to start an engine, but to have almost succeeded in a week in starting two great enter prises, much needed, is more than we expected all at once. We allude, of course, to the building of a large Hotel on the West side of the depot by a joint-stock company. Enough is known to say it will be done, for when such gentlemen as Gen. Wofford, Sfcokely, Judge Parrott and other iufluential and monied citizens take hold of busi ness, it means success. We have one good hotel, but one more is needed, and would add business to both. The oth er enterprise is the formation of a com pany to engage in manufacturing Rail road cars at this point. The company we learn is so nearly made up that’it may be put down as a fixed fact. \V e have advocated this business for months, and now that we see it is “au fait accompli,” we feel a commendable pride at this further evidence of our prosperity. Col. Padgett, of Quitman, Ga., a man of untiring perseverance, is here, and will make one of the compa ny. His is, perhaps, one of the most mechanical minds in our State, and lie will bring to bear on this enterprise all his abilities and experience in wood and iron manufacture. We regard this as one of the very best moves yet made to advance the interests of our town, and that it will be a paying business, we have simply no doubt. We learn that Col. Padgett will move and settle with us, and grow up with our growing town. Success to you, gentlemen. Weather pleasant, and no frost so far to injure vegetation. Cotton is do ing well. A good crop will be gather ed in this county. Cotton in active demand 12 to 12| cents. Wheat wanted at $1 00 to $1 10. Our friend A. W. Mitchell, of Atlan ta, has sold his beautiful farm, near Adairsville, to a gentleman who has lived in Texas for the last 15 years, but now returns to Georgia, buys land and expects to spend the balance of his days in his native State. Let those who own good land in Bartow county make a note of this. A man well set tled hei e need not move anywhere.— Here we have good land and fine wa ter, with health. “Health, the poor man’s riches, And the rich man’s blis3.” Bishop Beckwith Will, (D. Y.) preach at the Presby terian Church in Cartersville, on Wed nesday evening next, a 3 o’clock. The public are invited to attend.

For Sale.—A Building Lot, in the most pleasant part of town. Apply at this office. We are truly glad to learn that rapid progress is being made towards establishing a Car Factory, at this point. That is right, gentlemen! Press the good work to a suc cessful consummation. us remind the good people of the town of Cartersville. especially the business men of it, that advertising in their local pa pers is not money thrown away, as some of them are disposed to think. We are labor ing to build up and advance our local inter ests in every legitimate way, and while the press es our town is being fully and freely devoted to the good work, they expect your hearty co-operation. This, we regret to say, we are not getting. Your papers are not patronized as they deserve to be by the bu siness men of Cartersville. We are com pelled weekly to visit Atlanta in behalf of our papers, in order to eke out a poor exist ence for the same by drumming the Atlanta merchants for advertisements, thereby keep ing the business of that market before our readers, and neglecting our own. Must we still continue to do this in self-defense ? Will you not, gentlemen, open your hearts and aid us in advancing your interests, by giving us your patronage and support? The Light Broaden**. The late elections show clear Demo cratic gains, and therefore hope for constitutional liberty. ‘Never despair' should be our cqlrdinal -motto "Untir ing work cannot fail tor strengthen us. Notwithstanding the colored the Radical strength has considerably diminished. Some of this is pr bably due to the fact that these minor elec tions do not always draw out the full vote; but allowing for this, the result shows Democratic progress, and cheers up the public heart to see the perni cious doctrines of centralism growing into the disrepute, that they deserve, and traveling to their ultimate over throw. This must come whenever the people act upon the issue denuded of all improper surroundings. In Pennsylvania, the Democrats gain five Congressmen. They have now eleven out twenty-four Congress men, instead of six out of eighteen, as before. In Philadelphia, the Radicals lose 5,000 on their white vote. The gains in the Legislature are sufficient to improve that body and check Radi cal corruption. In Ohio there has been a great change. The majority of 45,000 for Grant has dwindled to 15,000, includ ing the black vote. The Congression al delegation is not changed in num ber. Schenck and McClurg are defeat ed, but two Democratic districts were also changed. Indianna has gone Demacratic, thus altering the political complexion of that Radical State. This a great vic tory. The Radicals have lost one mem ber of Congress and the Legislature. The Senate is a tie. The House has eight Democratic majority. This gives them the United States Senator.— Morton will not resign to be Minister to England, as his resignation would give Indiana a Democratic Senator.— General Lew Wallace is defeated. One Congressman the Radicals saved by only four votes, and another by a hun dred. Close shaving this, and hopeful to the Democracy next time. Among the defeated Radical Con gressmen well known, are Schenck, Morrell, Covode, O’Niel, Cessna and Shanks. In lowa, though the State has gone Radical, yet that party has lost 10,000 of its best men. Nebraska also went Radical, but the party majority has fallen from 4,- 290 to 2,000. In North Carolina, the Radicals lost five out of the seven Representatives in the present Congress. Thus we see that in the elections held thus far in eight States, Vermont, Maine, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, lowa and Nebraska, have seventy-six Representatives, or a little less than the whole 241 members of Congress, the Democratic gain elev en Congressmen. In the present House, the Republi cans have 162 and the Democrats 79, giving the former a majority of 83. We thus see already, in less than one third of the States, a change of 22 } making the status of the next House now 151 Radicals and 90 Democrats, reducing the majority from 83 to 61. The same gain in the rest of the States would reduce the Radical ma jority to 20. The South Carolina election came off yesterday. The West Virginia election comes off the fourth Monday in this month; Arkansas and Louisana the 7th November; Massachusetts Michigan, Illinois, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Wisconsin, Kansas, New York, New Jersey, Missouri, Min. nesota, and Connecticut on the Bth November. We think our Democratic friends have good cause to hope. Let us work with a vim to give seven good Democrats Congressmen from Geor gia to swell the band of laborers against centralization and corruption. [Atlanta Constitution. Delaware —The Radicals were so sure of carrying Delaware this year by the aid of the negro vote that they proclaimed their success in advance of the returns, and claimed 250 majority. It now turns out that it has gone Democratic 1,200 majority. Gov. Bullock has issued a million and a quarter of State bonds, using the Treasurer’s name without his knowledge. Two hun dred thousand dollars have been paid to the Treasurer, balance is in the Governor’s hands. The Governor says the use of the Treasurer’s name is only a form. Governor issued his proc lamation this morning adjourning the Jouse sine die on the 25th, and reas sembling the Senate on the list of No vember in executive session.

The failed cheek, the pale and wan features, the dull eye, the clouded intellect, the deep heav ing sigh, the feeble and emaciated frame, the de jected brow, the tottering gait, all indie ate pre vious transgression of law. Knowing that “pro crastination is the thief of time.” all intelligent beings apply for some remedy as soou.gs circum stances permit; while those vriio.ilo not act np oa the principle that “delays are .dangerous,” generally linger, lose more time and 'l>ay mars money. " «* ** * FEMALE COMPLAINT. That claims its victims throughout the length and breadth of otir land. Many females suffer in sonic wav at each mon thly period; some girls are in great peril at the commencement of menstruation, while! older ones dread its decline at the “turn of life.**— Sometimes the menstrual flow is too much, or too little, or may be attended with pain; may be irregular or entirely checked, or changed in appearance, attended with other distressing symptoms. Leucorrhoea, or th« “Whites,’, fre quently drains the system, or ulceration of the womb may create pain and cause rapid prostra tion. Falling of the womb is an excoedinglv com mon complaint, giving much trouble and dis tress, which, under ordinary treatment, is diffi cult to cure. Hysterics, Green Sickness, Irritability of the Womb, and other serious and fatal complaiuts follow the female sox throughout life. Lives there a medical gentleman who has or can re lievo the fair sex of the above troubles? Not many. Is there no combination of remedial a gonts that will come to her rescue ?£Wc answer. Yes. ENGLISH FEMALE BITTERS, The only acknowledged Uterine Tonic and Fe male Regulator known, will eure all those com plaints above mentioned in an incredibly short time. The Bitters at once arouses, strengthens and restores the womb to its natural condition, removing obstructions, relieving pain and reg ulating the monthly period. Yonder stands a pale, feeble and languid girl, just bursting into womanhood; she is the pride of all. but hark ! she silently steals a pickle, eats chalk, or a slate pencil; no appetite for food; she turns with a dull eye and seeks solitude; her eve no longer sparkles; her merry laugh is no longer heard ringing through the air; she mopes about with bloodless lips and gums, with headache, palpi tation, constipation, swimming of the head, cold feet andAands, meTancnoly ; shiv has a coated tongue, offensive breath, and a host of other e vils too numerous to mention. When, neglected all these symptoms become aggravated, there is sick stomach, MfcrtbUrfff* a dark line settles under the eyes, the legs and and ankles'are swollen, the liaif loses its gloss and ftdil off. there is brjttleness and splitting of* the finger-nails. swollen abdomen, extreme nervousness, fretfulness, pains and aches, dry ? cough. Hysterical tits, rapid’-prost epilep sy and-death. U If. yoxu. or. akty of your friends,: are thus afflicted, send at once fo* a Bottle of' English Female Bitters and he cured' Its effoets are magical in such complaints. Surely no me. • ther will postpone and delay this duty uutil .. ' DEATH IS AT THE DOOR. In all these complaints the system evidently shows a want of red blood, and Mr. Churchill, in his work on Diseases of Females, says:— “Bearing in mind that the blood is remarkably deficient in red corpuscles, find the known pro perty of iron to correct this condition, theory suggests it as the most to be relied on, the best of which is the Citrate.” Citrate of Iron enters largely into the composition of English Female Bitters, combined with powerful vegetable ton ics of rare qualities. Among the mountains of Tennessee and the piney woods of Mississippi, is found a certain hard and flinty root, which has been in secret use by some midwives for many years, possess ing magic powers in regulating and restoring all female suffering with any affection of the womb. This root we have obtained, gave it a fair test in our practice and it is now one of the principal ingredients in these Bitters. Other powerful uterine and general tonics also enter into itsc omposition. We also add Leptandra or Black root, sufficient to act upon the liver and keep the bowels open. ""BlfiOMiN^OUN^lßtGr"" Middle-aged matrons, those at the critical peri od, aud the aged grandmother, are all cured hf~ the use of our English Female Bitters, now prc‘ scribed and used by physicians all over the country. If you are troubled with Fall ing of the Womb, attended with a sense of weight and beariag down pain in the back and side, and other at tendant evils, English Female Bitters will give entire relief. Those at the “turn of life,” mothers after con finement, and all others (male or female) who are convalescents from any protracted or debil itating complaint, who gain strength slowlv. and whose digestion is slow and Imperfect, will find these Bitters the very thing their system demands. It gives a powerful appetite, aids and assists digestion, arouses the liver, strength ens mentally and physically, and fills the whole system with pure crimson blood coursing thro’ its channels. COMMOM GROG-SHOP BITTERS. Empty Bitter Bottles, of various stvles, 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 they possess no medicinal properties Avhatever. They are so many disguises for exceedingly 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 who buys them carries a “toper’s grog’’ into his house. One man who knows nothing about me dicine. says his big bottles of common stuff will cure chills and fever, rheumatism and consump tion; another, whose bottles are verv fauev, cures all the impurities of the blood, makes old men young, casts out devils, restores sight to the blind, and numerous other miracles; Avhile yet another, avlio presumes every man a drunk ard, proposes to cure colic, ingrowing nails, vel low fever, heart disease and love-sick maidens'! We know they make no such cuvcs, we know the people at large are deceived and swindled, and as we desire to ventiate these common humbugs, make the following challenge to one and all : OWE HUNDRED DOLLARS That one tablespoonful of ENGLISH FEMALE BITTERS contains as much medicinal proper ties as one bottle of any of the pleasantly tasted common advertised hitters or the day !
