The Bridge over tho Etowah River,
okthe C. &V. W. R R., was finished
antfie 4th instant; it is one of the best
structures of the kind that spans this
nobie stream. The masonry and wood
and iron used in its construction, are
cf the best materials. We congratu
late this Company upon the comple
tion of this, their greatest obstacle on
the whole route, for it is well known,
at least to practical Railroad men, that
it is no small job to build a substantial
bridge, over a large stream. Ail con
cerned deserve much credit for their
untiring energy, through many difficul
ties, instability of hands, and many
petty vexations; but it is achieved, and
now the work will go on with speed to
an early completion. Look out, ye
Stilesboroans, for the locomotive soon.
Showers contiue; crops growing fine
ly; weather hot; farmers waginga des
perate war against Gen. Green, who
quits the field of strife sullenly; he is
an old hero, of a thousand battles, and
so- often victorious, that ho now dies
hard; ho is game, but he falters, he
reels! we confidently believe he will
retreat before the stalwart arms of
the yeomanry. Up and at him, boys !
once more to the breach I one more
charge! “a little more grape, Capt.
Bragg,” and the day is ours—victory
will perch on your standards.
Wheat is coming to our Station free
ly. Already some (1000 bushels have
been delivered, at $1 25 per bushel.—
This is now the cheapest breadstuff in
Georgia. Corn here, is worth $1 GO,
in Middle and Southern Georgia, it is
worth $2 00, and it is likely it will bo
worth that, or more, next year, as very
little has been planted. Everything
has been set aside for our favorite
crop—cotton. Much cotton, and little
com will be the result. We cannot,
therefore, see many good reasons why
our farmers should be uneasy about
the price of wheat at $1 25; it is now
the cheapest food in the South, and
tho crop at the West is not so good as
last year, and Europe will have to
buy largely from us this Fall and Win
ter.
Cotton dull at lGlcts. Com $1 60;
Wheat $1 25; Bacon, sides, 20cts.
Ye honest men of Bartow, now that
you have been blessed with a great
wheat crop, pay your debts. Remem
ber promises made to pay off obliga
tions after harvest; sell your wheat;
honor your promises; make your mer
chants’ hearts merry over their collec
tions; pay the printer; re-subscribe to
the “Express;” pay in advance, and
generally jubilate the hearts of those
who have been waitiug for this auspi
cious day, for the small sum due them.
Have litde, or nothing, to do with the
Relief laws. Obey the law of God,
taught us in a few words: “Owe - no
xnan nothing.”
Our town ! we mean our “Station,”
is oil the rise. We are going to have
a yes, sir, a Town Hall—sur
prised ? You need not be, wo need it,
and our Council men are going to
build us a splendid Hall, GO by 80 feet,
to be erected over the new brick stores
now going up on the public square—a
good selection—just the right place—
well done—and now that you have
commenced to ornament the town
with a beautiful building, give us a
model road to the Fair Grounds; so
when she thousands who will visit us
in October, come, they may have one
of the finest drives in tho whole coun

Mb. and Mrs. Johnston’s School Party.
—On Tuesday night last, we were among
the fortunate guests in attendance at the
School-Rooms cf Mr. and Mrs. Johnston.—
One week before, we had enjoyed the liter
ary entertainmeat of this School, not then
dreaming of the pleasant party so soon to
follow. When we arrived, the rooms were
filled to overflowing with the students of the
School, and their invited guests all with
beaming, joyous, faces, determined to enjoy
themselves hugely, In the several rooms,
the children were arranged according to
nges—the smaller in one, and the larger in
others, and left to their own happiness, as
they mingled in the innocent plays suitable
to the young. To look upon them, as they
•skipped and played, brought back the hap
py hours of our own young days, and we
entered fully into the passing pleasures of
the hour. And here let us say to the young,
that life will always be happy, if they are
always good; if they will seek the “pearl of
great price,” and love God, and walk upright
ly before Him-
On the spacious piazza, we found many
of the young ladies and gentlemen of our
“Station,” promenading, fanned by the cool
night breezes, while the moon shed a “sil
very sheen” upon the beautiful grounds
around, and the voiceless night was only
disturbed by the low, soft hum of that
“something sweet to tell you,” w-hich the
,young man perhaps, (who knows ?) was
whispering into the ear of some fair being
walking by his side. Some, perhaps, were
only walking “pourpassen le temps, until sup
per was announced. Divine blessing having
been asked by Rev. T. E. Smith, all were
invited partake of the luxuries before.them,
heaped up in great profusion on the long
tables in the hall. All ate with a relish for
the viands were most delicious; and that ice
lemonade—well, it was exactly good. After
supper was over, the children resumed their
plays, and all “went merry as a marriage
bell;” and thus in social converse, and hap
py rc union of the scholars, with their leach
era, patrons and guests, they remained until
“The stna’ wee hours, agantthe twal,” and
then, with a kind good night, to all, they
separated for their respective homes.
These parties are pleasant; they tend to
keep up good will and friendship ; many
children will remember this party, and Mr.
and Mrs. Johnston, all.life long, and will
cherish it as one ot tho “greenest spots on
memery’g waste.”
tGf* The annual meeting of the Bartow
Bible Society, will take place on next Sab

MUSIC.
The ring of the ti’owel, and the sciz
of the saw; the roar of artillery, and
the tap of the drum—there’s th 9 notes
that measure men quicker than light
ning—from 5 to 40 feet high. Who
that does not love (we pity him) the
music of yon clashing trowels, in those
honest hands of bone and muscle that
grasp them. A few days since and it
was vacant ground where now we hear
the ring of the trowel and the sciz of
the saw. A two story block of brick. —
Eight stores, all under cover of date goes
quickly up—a further endorsement of
the solid business and bright prospects
of our growing town.
Adornment of our Homes.
The rich and prosperous County of
Bartow —the wonder of scientific tour
ists, in her rich Ore Mines and vast
Water-Power; the admiration of every
tiller of the soil, in her broad, rich val
leys, her fertile acclivities, her grand for
ests, her resources for abundant good
living, with fine water and climate
most conducive to the life of man. —
Have not our lots been well cast, and
should we not be thankfully proud of
our noble County, and of our town—
her Legal and Commercial head —
arisen by bone, muscle and brains from
the ashes of war, thrifty and prosper
ous, once again ? May not now, a com
mon sentiment, and a common pur
pose, in action prompt, bespeak the sen.
timent and the purpose, in a further
improvement and adornment of our
every home, so far as is convenient; but
a short time hence, and visitors, by the
thousands, are to be attracted hither
by our County Fair; w T ould it not be
well then, for us to begin in time the
brushing up of homes, as bispeaking
the taste of our people ?
Every citizen may do something to
improve the town in which he lives, if
there be the will, he need not be long
in discovering the way. Especially
may every head of ft family, to some
extent, cleanse, freshen and beautify
his home, thus aiding and encourag
ing the good wife in her efforts for
health, comfort and home enjoyment—
he contributes to the general weal, de
claring, by his acts, for one, I am proud
of our town, and will do what I can
for its advancement.

gggp'We went down t*» the Cartersville &
Van-Wert Railroad bridge, across the Eto
wah River, on Monday last, (4th July,) and
had the pleasure of seeing the first eugine
and train of cars ride majestically across its
bright waters borne up by that master piece
of workmanship—a superb Howe 'Truss
Bridge, just completed by the Messrs Nagle
& Cos., under a contract let by Messrs. La
man, Conant & Cos., contractors lor con
structing the road, and under the imme
diate supervision of Dr. Laman, who has
been giving it his personal attention since
the first lick was struck. The masonry is
unsurpassed, it. being constructed of rock
brought from Chickamaugua, the larger pro
portion of which will w eigh from one to four
tens apiece, nicely hammered, laid in ce
ment, and the joints broken with the uni
formity of brick work. These abutments,
to all human appearance, arc immovable by
any probable weight of water or drift w r ood
that, may chance to teat their strength.—
The bridge crosses the river in one span ei
200 feet, or 190 feet from abutment to abut
ment, and, consequently, the channel of the
stream is unobstructed by piers to catch
logs or driftwood. At Rome below, on the
same stream, the D., R. & S. R. li. bridge
is about 375 feet in leng h, and the YV. & A.
R. R bridge across the same stream, only a
few miles above, is about 600 feet in length,
both of which are supported by piers. The
C. Ac V-W. Railroad bridge was all framed
in Cartersville, t hen transported by the cars
to the river and there erected, and so per
fect was its construction, we are. credioly
informed, that not a single alteration in the
timbers was necessary. The gentlemen
who framed it undeistood their trade. The
bridge stands unrivalled in the Southern
States, so far as we have seen. The track
beyond the river is now being laid in a hurry,
and, in a few more days at most, the keen,
shrill whistle of the engine will greet the
ears of our friedds and neighbors in and
around Stilesboro and Euharlee. So look
out for the engine when the whistle blows.

Onr townsman, Dr. Edward Smith, is becom
ing noted as the manufacturer of Smith’s Liv
er Toxic, Turkish Liniment, ague Pills, Bu
chu, White Ash and Sarsaparilla Bitters,
Children’s Soothing Syrup, etc., We have
thought it nothing amiss to state, for the infor
mation of those unacquainted with him, that he
is not what the public is apt to believe amanufac
turer of what is commonly known as patent medi
cines to be. Many believe that such are men
void of conscience, totally unscrupulous as to
the means of making money, indiu'erent as to
the effeet of their compounds upon those who
take them, and, in fact, will represent their
medicines as valuable when they know them to
be worthless, and would as soon sell a spurious
as genuine article, provided the one would HU
their pockets as readily as the other. Whether
this public estimate of the class referred to be
correct or not, we will not discuss, but will say
that if correct as to many, it is wholly incorrect
as to I)r. Smith.

no humbug can or will emanate. When he and

This \ aluable Family Medicine has been
widely and favorably known in our own and
foreign countries, upwards of
THIRTY YEARS!
It has lost none of its good name by repeat
ed t. iais, but continues to occupy a promi
nent position in every family medicine chest.
It is an Extern <1 and Internal Remedy
For summer complaint, or any o’her form
of bowel disease in children or adults, it is
an almost certain cure, and has, w ithout a
doubt, been more successful in curing the
various kinds of CHOLERA than any other
known remedy, or the most skillful phvsi
cian. In India, Africa and China, where
this dreadful disease is more or less preval
ent, the Pain Killer is considered by the na
tives, as well as European residents in those
climates, a sure remedy; and whie it is a
most efficient remedy for pain, it is a per
fectly safe medicine, even in unskilled hands.
It is a sure and effective remedy. Bold by
all druggists. Price 25 cts., 50 cts., and $1
per bottle.

Health’s Best Defcnee.
“The weak eateth herbs,” says St. Paul,
so that eighteen hundred years ago the val
ue of medicinal plants was appreciated. In
the Old Testament botanical remedies are
repeatedly recommended, but in no passage
of sacred history is man recommended to
swallow calomel, or blue pill, or any other
mineral preparation, Ihe sick were di
rected to eat herbs to strengthen them, to
heal them, to restore them. In that day the
art of making vegetable extracts was un
known. The iierbai medicines were mere
infusions.
It was reserved for a later age to unite the
sanitary essences cf tonic, aperient and anti
billious vo°ts, barks, and plants, with an
active stimulant, and thus secure their rap
id diffusion through the debilitated or dis
ordered system. The crowning triumph of
thi3 effective mode of concentrating and ap
plying the virtues of medicinal vegetables
was ach eved in the production of Hostet
ter’s tSiomach Bitters- Never before had a
perfectly pure alcoholic stimulant been
combined with the Expressed juices of the
finest specifics of the vegetable kingdom
Never yet, though eighteen years have ciap
sod since its introduction, has this great res
torative been equalled.
It is taken at all seasons, in all climes, as
the most potent safe-guard against epidem
ics, as a protection again *t all unhealthy
exhalations that produce debility or beget
disease; as a remedy for intermittent and
other malarious fevers; as an appetizer; as
a sovereign cure for dyspepsia; as a general
tonic and invigorant; a-a gentle painless
aperient; as a blood uepurent; as a nervine;
as a cure for bilious affections; as a harmless
anodyue; and as the best defence of health
under unfavorable circumetances, such as
sedentary pursuits, undue bodily or mental
exertion, hardship, privation and exposure.

KoskoD. —This medicine is rapidly gain
ing the confidence of the people, and the
numerous testimonials of its virtues, given
by practioners of medicine, leaves no doubt
that it is a safe and reliable remedy for im
purity Oit THE BLOOD, LIVER DISEASES, tc.
The last Medical Journal contains an arti
cle trom Prof. R. S. Newton, ivl. D., Presi
dent of the E. Medical College, cUy of New
York, that speaks in high terms of its cura
tive properties, and gives a special recom
mendation of Koskoo to the practitioners of
medicine. This is, we believe, the first in
stance where such medicines have been of
ficially endorsed by the Faculty of any of
the medical colleges, and reflects great cred
it upon the skill of Dr. Lawrence, its com
pounder. and also puts “Koskoo” in the van
of all other medicines of the present day.
For Sale, to a responsible party, on

the former as good as new. Apply at

Hair Vigor,
For restoring Gray Hair to
Us natural Vitality and Color.
4A dressing which
is at onoc agreeable,
healthy, and effectual
for preserving the
hair. Faded orywiy
hair is soon restated
to its original col&r,
scitfi the gloss and
freshness of youth.
Thin hair is thick
ened, falling hair chocked, and bald
ness often, though not always, cured
by its use. Nothing can restore the
hair where tho follicles are destroyed,
or tho glands atrophied and decayed.
But- such as remain can bo saved for
usefulness by this application. Instead
of fouling tho hair with a nasty sedi
ment, it will keep it clean and vigorous.
Its occasional use will prevent tho hair
from turning gray or falling off, and
consequently prevent baldness. Free
from those deleterious substances which
make some preparations dangerous, and
injurious to tho hair, the Vigor can
only benefit but not harm it. If wanted
merely for a
HAIR DRESSING,
nothing else can be found so desirable.
Containing neither oil nor dye, it does
not soil white cambric, and yet lasts
long on the hair, giviug it a rich, glossy
lustre and a grateful perfume.
