As not a, case of yellow fever was known within 120 miles of Professor Proctors Florida home, the supposition is that he contracted the disease from refugees on his way North. In justice to I)r. Felton and Maj. A. M. Foute, we deem it proper to state that neither of them, so tar as we know, had anything whatever to do witu the ad vertisement of application tor a bill to establish a stock law tor Bartow county, which is now running in this paper. The opening of the Augusta National Exposition has been postponed to No vember 8. This delay is brought about by the damage wrought to railroads,- <*uh!s, factories, and other business in stitutions by the recent heavy floods, and the impossibility ot getting'every thing into shape and readiness for the advertised opening day oil the 10th of October. THE lEe.LOW FISVEIt. The yeliovv fever continues its ravages at .Jacksonville, it has abouf reached the climax —the new cases reported being about 100 per day, and deaths ten to fifteen. There is great excitement in many parts of the country, and the strict quar antines establishes; are interfering with the commerce and travel Decatur, Ala., has developed several eases, also, Jackson, Miss., and New Or leans. On Monday of last week six cases of yel low fever were reported at Gaines ville,Fl a., among members of the Gainesville f uards who recently went to help suppress the longshoremen's riot at Fernandina.. A Fernandina special says that place is al solu tely ! ie-a!thy, There was a stampede from Gainesville immediately,butw cordon has been drawn, and it is hoped and believed that fever cannot, become epidemic there owing to recruit extensive sanitary improvements. News from MeClemiy is favorable. The, immediate wants of the community have been relieved, and physicians, nurses, provisions and money have been sent there. The condition of things at Jacksonville grows worse instead of better. The new cases reported for the past week average more than fifty per day, and the disease is assuming a more malignant type. The great heart of the is stirred with sympathy,and large amounts of money are going forward for the re lief of the suffering, aud to aid in prevent ing the spread of the fever. It is reported that there are several cases among the refugees who recently went to Hendersonville, N. C., and con sternation prevails there. Many Charles ton people summer it there, and that city having quarantined against Hender sonville, they are cut off from home. BALLOON AS CEN SIGNS- More Attractions Arranged for Hie North Georgia null Alabama Exposition. Appreciating the fact the managers of the North Georgia and Alabama Expo sition have secured the famous and re nowned aeronaut, Prof. Fred Mortimer. He is one of the most daring men that ever ascended in a balloon. The perilous feats lie performs are known all over the West where, last year, he astonished the people in his risky leaps. At the North Georgia and Alabama Exposition lie will make three ascensions. At two of these the far-famed aeronaut will jump out of iris balloon. The engagements with Prof. Mortimer are that he shall give three ascensions on the following days: Friday, October sth; Tuesday, October 9th, and Friday, October 12th. A Valuable Addition. The faculty of West End Institute have secured the services of Miss Marion C. I)arst to fake charge of the art depart ment of the school. She has taken cer tificates in the Columbus art school in drawing, design oii and water color painting. The drawing will include pencil, char coal sketching from object, India ink, crayon work of all kinds, also instru mental perspective drawing and elemen tary life sketching. Miss Darst will teach on Saturday from 9 a. in. to 4 p. in., so the art lessons will not interfere with daily recitation. No such advantages have been offered to the people before, and all are invited to join the class, as it will not be limited to the pupils of this school. Miss Darst will be in Cartersville on Saturday and will be glad to organize a large class. Terms advertised in school circular. Juror* for January Court.

ADVICE TO PIANO BUYERS. i !5e Sure You are flight: Before You c<> # Ahend, With the many different makes of pianos there are in the market at the present time, both good and poor, ex pensive and cheap, legitimate and fraud ulent stencil/’ we realize it is a difficult matter for people intending to purchase a piano to make a selection. To nhose wishing to procure a really fine piano, and one that will be satisfactory to the most critical judges, and also at a rea sonable price, the Kranich & Bach are unequalled. They have won the highest praises from tlie finest artists, teachers association —in fact, from about 25,000 purchasers. It is a piano for life-time. A piano that sings its own praises—com mencing about 25 years ago with a limi ted capital, Kranich & Bach are rated to-day in Bradstreets commercial report to one million dollars—and their factory on Twenty-third street, New York, is one of the finest, best equipped in the world, taxed to its fullest capacity to supply the ever inerreasing demand for theft* magnificent pianos. Here is what the “Music Trade/’ of New York, has to say about this popular instrument, as well as a few of the many unsobcited certificates now in the hands of Messrs. Freyer & Bradley, of Atlanta: From the Music Trade. No firm in thepiano trade in the United States enjoys a higher reputation both as regards the character of the instru ments they manufacture and also as re gards standing and business repute than Messis. Kranich oc Bach. It is the pe culiar pride of this house that although they occupy one of the leading positions in the trade, are well up among the largest manufacturers and arc rated among- the most well-to-do and solid business men of the city, still they main tain t he modest and workmanlike habits of their earlier years of struggle and effort, and both partners can be seen hard at work in their fine warerooms and factory on Twenty-third street near Sec ond Avenue in their shirt sleeves and with their workmen’s aprons on. Messrs. Kranich cY Bach are pre-emi nently piano-makers. They sought no glory except such as could be legitimate, iy obtained by the manufacture and sale of first-class instruments at. the most moderate price possible. They were never large or loud advertisers and al ways preferred that their pianos should speak for themselves and sound their own praises. “It is better to put it into the piano than into the papers" is a well known saying with them. As they allied to rare skill and practi cal knowledge of manufacture habits of rigid economy, great industry and abso lute business integrity, it is not to be wondered at that their instruments years ago made a national reputation while the firm itself rapidly acquired one of the best, most substantial and re munerative businesses in the trade. It was no uncommon thing to hear men say: “You can trust him. He’s a Kranich & Bach agent.” For it was pretty certain that to be a Kranich & Bach agent a man had to be fit to repre sent the good repute and solidity of the New York house. With regard to the character of the in struments made by Messrs. Kranich & Bach it may be said that they are first class in every respect, in quality of ma terial used, in character of labor em ployed. They are manufactured in a factory renowned for its cleanliness, irs completeness and its excellent general management, of which economy, thrift and constant care are the distinguishing characteristics. I can honestly say, and alter an experience of twelve years in the piano trade, that no man or woman ever bought a Kranich & Bach piano who did not got the full value of their money and have an instrument which would stand the wear and tear of even extraordinary use without any perceptible change. Within the last few years Messrs. Kranich & Bach have introduced into their pianos a number of patented im provements which have done much to make them popular and more highly thought of than they were before. So great is the reputation of this house and on such an extremely solid basis lias its fortunes boon founded that the business always runs evenly. The demand for pianos may vary a little sometimes 'out it keeps along stead ily, subject to no violent fiuctations one way or the other. And this “steady con stant trade” is what the practical piano maker will tell you is, after all, the onlv satisfactory and profitable business to do. John C. Freund. Atlanta. Ga., March 1, 1887. F. L. Freyer: It gives me pleasure to state that I consider the Krancli & Bach a very fine, first-class piano. All I have seen are beautiful instruments, and I shall continue always to recommend them. H. Bak, M. IW Uxioxtown, Ala., Sep. 14, 1887. Mr. ('has. Freyer, Atlanta, Ga.—My Dear Sir: After a year’s continual use of the style G Kranich & Bach piano you shipped us, we can only say that we, as well as every one who has “tried it,” are charmed with it. Respectfully, W. M. Selde.v. Briekfield, Ala., June 2,1886. Professor F. L. Freyer—Dear Sir: The piano has arrived and we are very much pleased with it. Yours truly, I)r. F. F. Gage. Cartersville, Ga., Sept. 17, 1888. Gents: This is to certify that the Kra nidi & Bnch piano bought of you ten yearn ago has always given perfect satis faction and its tone lias rather improved by constant use and think it superior to any; Stein way, Knabe or Checkering, not excepted. I have confidence that Kranich & Bach furnish to the purchaser all they hold out to furnish, which is a very important consideration. Jno. tV. J kin . Judson Institute. \ Marion, Ala., Nov. 14, ’87. 1 I take pleasure in saying that the piano (Kranich A' Bach) is a thoroughly first-class instrument, and Mr. Freyer is a reliable and honorable gentleman. We have purchased eight of them through Mr. Freyer during the past three years, and have had every reason to congratu late ourselves on our purchases. Very sincerely yours, E. E. Ayer, Roswell, Ga., July 13,1888. Mr. F. L. Freyer: The piano you sold me about 10 years ago, manufactured by Kranich & Bach, New York, is a beau tiful instrument. Its tone is as rich and sweet, and the touch as delightful, if not better, than the day it was sold, and its exterior seems to have lost none of its rich lustre and finish, although it is in daily use. But the most remarkable feature is its durability and staying in tune, and seems to be especially adapted for our Southern climate. With the exception of two slight tunings, it has not had or needed any attention whatever. In short, I consider it the best and most re liable piana in the country, and recom mend it as such to any one wishing to buy the best, and would strongly advise any of my friends to buy no other. C. A. Dunwoopy. Atlanta, Ga., May 9, 1888. Messrs. F. L Freyer & Go., Atlan ta, Ga Gentlemen : It gratifies me to write you that the piano bought from you in 1879 has been in use for this length of time continuously, has given entire satisfaction, being as sweet in tone as when purchased. The piano stands in tune remarkably well, and for durability and all good qualities, I have never found its equal. Yours truly, Sam W. Small. Write to Freyer & Bradley, 27 White hall street, Atlanta, Ga., for catalogues and prices, which will be furbished free, and further, any desired information given with pleasure. They have also other and cheaper pianos—from S2OO upwards—perfectly new, and fully war ranted for five years. As this firm is rated by Brad streets’ at $50,000, and Kranich & Bach at $1,000,000, and they are within easy reach of our readers, their guarantee is undoubted, and we can but advise our readers to give them their patronage. syrup of Figs Is Nature’s own true laxative.
