Rev. Sam Join's came over from Rome yesterday and spent the day with his family* returning on the accommodation train. At the afternoon meeting at the public well he spoke tb a considerable congregation, stating that the meeting in Rome was a good one, and would do a power of good. “He also said that Floyd county was in a fair way to become dry in an election to be held at an early day. His remarks were much enjoyed by all who heard them. This paper has been informed by one of our lies! citizens, that there are two or tine* young men, if not mere boys, that make it a daily business of bring ing whisky from a neighboring county for parties living here. These young fel lows, whose actions are well known, are lever censured by their parents who cJuini to be pillars in the church, and who seem jierfectly oblivious to the great wrong their children are committing. It n ft shame that these youngsters are al h wed to bring the stuff here for the de moralization of others* Adalrsville’s Rocks. It has been remarked several times that the rock in Adairsville was valuable. An old quarryman once said that he would guarantee $4 or $5 clear on the rock that crops out of the central part of the town. It was never thought much of. bufit turns out now that tile town is built on n bed of black marble of the finest grade. It is susceptible of a high polish, and t here is no doubt about the durability, as there are sidewalks there that have been standing sometime. —Savannah News. Would I>* Great Convenience. Present schedules will not admit of one sending a letter to Atlanta and receiving an answer the same day. A proper ef fort shown by our people could easily secure a remedy for this by petitioning the mail authorities to allow a pouch for Atlanta distribution to go down on the I Home accommodation. This is done by I towns on other lines as well as the W. & : A., and we hope to see a daily mail from \ ('artersville. It would certainly be a 1 great convenience. Sunday School l’icu c Tomorrow. The children of the Baptist Sunday school will have their annual picnic /it Etowah Heights, the beautiful home of Mrs. ('apt. Shelinan, to-morrow ( Friday). Four extra eouehes have been provided for the children, and the train will leave at 9:45 in the morning, returning in the afternoon. Children under six years will be eh urged nothing, while those twelve years of age will pay fifteen eents and above that age twenty-five cents. The picnic promises to lie a most enjoyable one in every way. and a more beautiful spot to have it could not have been se lected. Want* to Hear from Hi* I'rotlier. Judge Neel has received a letter from A. B. Sugg, of Robards, Ky., asking the whereabouts of his brother, S. M. Sugg, who killed an old showman in Adairsville three or four years ago. It will be remem bered that the person inquired for effect ed iiis escape from our jail and lias never been heard of since. The writer of the letter states that hisland his brother's mother is in her last days and on the verge of insanity, all on account of her wayward son, and wants to hear some thing from Him. Whisky constituted the foundation for this wretched state of affairs in the Sugg family. The Home hiiil Decatur. lii an interview with a reporter of the Home Courier, ('apt. John (’. l'rintup, president of the road, stated that he expected to have the road running through to Home by the middle of Au gust. “When will you work on the Guinesvilleextentiou?" was asked. “We want to get the road built to the Western A Atlantic road by the time we complete the road to Gadesden to Home. It is our inti ip.ion to put a corps of engi neers in the field to locate the road by the first of J line, and we may go right along to Gainesville, but our intentions are to get to the Western & Atlantic road just as soon as we can.

M. Hero is a Hoorn ltiglit London, May Hi.—The Financial Secre tary of India has advised the government of the discovery of an immense amount of treasure, estimated at over $25,000,- 900, which had been secreted in the Palace of Gwailior by the late Mahar ojah. The treasure had been sunk in pits, under the vaults benefit h theZaimua, and the secret was entrusted to a few contidental servants. The Secretary was present when the treasure was unearthed. After removing the earth to a depth of six feet the workmen uncovered great flagstones. Beneath these stones were several pits filled to the brim with silver chiefly, freshly coined rupees. In each pit was a plate recording the amount of the treasure and the names of the offic ials who had assisted in secreting it. The Indian Government has taken the hoard as a loan from the young Mahar ajah. Tin* native papers protest against this action of the government. S.im Jones’ Opinion of Home. The Jones Small meeting in Rome opened up most encouragingly Sunday, and the prospects are fine for an immense amount of good to be derived from it. It is sincerely hoped that a stimulus will be given to the prohibition element that will carry the good cause to victory in the next contest. Rome, practically, is the whisky depot for nearly this whole section of the state, and the good people should see to it that such a blot should be effaced from her fair name and flatter ing prospects. Mr. Jones, in speaking of the condition of Rome, said that there was “enough hell in the town to make another hell.” Speaking of Rome, reminds us of the fact that Floyd county has now a chance to redeem herself. The most favorable prospects are in view, and with proper effort it can be ridden of the curse of whisky selling. It is understood that two of the most prominent whisky houses in the town have declined taking any stock in an election if held, uml the new and rigid registration law will tend to bring about victory for the prohibition ists. The Holiness Meeting Closed on Sunday Kijjl.t. The Holiness Association closed its week's meeting on last, Sunday night; and never before, perhaps, in so short a time, has Darters ville so thoroughly awakened. From the very beginning the people manifested considerably interest in the meeting; the church was tilled at almost every service. Interest gre%\ and the congregations increased until the spacious auditorium of the Methodist church wii crowded to overflowing. When these good men and women .first came amongst us, many not understand ing fully what they really believed con cerning holiness or sanctification, had some misgivings as to what would be the result of their meeting. This was soon dispelled, and in its stead, an almost uni versal confidence in them and u hearty approval of their efforts to raise the standard of religion and place the church upon a higher plane. A right conception of their believe upon the doc trine of holiness is sufficient to silence all criticism and command the respect of all good people. As explained in a cir cular, issued by Rev. A.J. Jarrell, presi dent of the association, if is the doctrine of all the Christian churches. We have never seen such blazing cn tusiasm, more intense earnestness and zeal, or deeper piety than that manifest ed by these good people. They won the hearts and affections of our citizens, and w henever the association may meet here its members will always find a warm wel come to our homes. The services were continued by the Rev. Air. Timmons un- last Wednesday. There is not a man or woman in Dart ersville but that is glad that the associa tion held its meeting here, and who is not ready to say that our town is the better lor its coming. TriE MOONSHINE WAGON. It is Orrrhanliat‘ Last and it* Occupant* Jailed At intervals of a month or so for the past several months, certain characters S in this community have l*een liberally supplied with whisky. When a fresh supply was in the community or nearby it was noticeable by the great amount of docking indulged in by the men em ployed in the mines of the county, nud strange the supply wee always forth coming at or near the time of paying off the hands. The men would no sooner get their wages than they would, as if by some instinct, wend their way to a moon shiner's camp. As before stated this has been going on for some time, and the efforts of the rev enue offices proved fruitless in stopping it. Last Saturday was pay day at the ore banks, the whisky was on hand as usual. Luckily a gentleman "living on the outskirts of the town noticed some sus picious characters in their movements, and he was not long in “spotting” a wagon of whisky in rear of Squire Smith's on the Howland Springs road. He came to town, gave the information to Marsh al Wilkerson, who immediately imparted it to Messrs. A. TV'. Fife and Deputy Marshals Mark Scot i and Ira Campbell, who happened to be in town. The latter three hastily proceeded to the locality where the whisky was being sold. Leav ing the main road, uml going down an old by-road, they came upon the wagon in a dense thicket. Three men lay near, who proved to be Samuel Mo.selv. deputy sheriff of Pickens eouutv, Samuel Boze man, and a colored boy by the name of Willis MKinney, all hailing from l’ickens county. They were arrested without trouble and brought to town. The wag on contained six five-gallon casks and one large jug, all nearly full of whisky. A large l übber syphon that was used in drawing the Arid, and a gallon pot were found in the wagon. It was a neat turn out, well fixed up for a prosperous busi ness. The casks bore stamps, but it is thought by the officers that they hud been refilled. A few yards from the wag on was found a forty-gallon barrel of whisky which was not stamped, and which the prisone s disowned. The tracks of the wagon though gives the scheme away, and it no doubt was placed off by itself on account of the barrel not being stumped, thus to be ready to be disowned in case of eoirfing iu contact with revenue officers. The officers say when they ran upon the trio of moonshiners considerable rustling among the bushes could be heard, made by parties leaving the spot in a hurry, it is unfortunate some of them could not have been captured or seen and made to appear as witnesses. The three men were brought before Commissioner Martin Collins Monday and the two white men were committed to jail under a fffOO bond, while the darkey was required to ante up a bond of S2OO. The good people of this community are very much elated over this capture, and it is hoped that it will stop the running in of blockade wagons for awhile at least. The appearance of these men, we are informed, has been very often in our midst and always when they came there was an unusal supply of whisky some where. Samuel .Vlosely, the deputy sheriff of Pickens county, is said to be worth considerable money, and is well thought of in his county. It is passing strange that he could secure his own con sent to engage in such nefarious business and it is a sad commentary indeed, when an officer of the law, sworn to execute the laws, is a rank violator of the same. The Last anil West Changes Management. 1 he East and \\ est R. R. of Ala., has at last changed hands. The transfer took place yesterday. The new management will not take absolutecontrol until about J une Ist. ( uder the new regime Capt. John Pos ted will be general superintendent and vice president, and Mr. S. L. Vnndivere master of transportation. This means much for the road. Capt. Postell is not only a cultured and elegant gentleman, but-he is one of the most successful and best equipped railroad men in the south. He understands thoroughly every detail in the business, and is a man of eminent ly practical ideas. Fnder his former ad ministration of the affairs of the road, it was unusually prosperous, and was con sidered one of the most profitable rail road properties in the country. Mr. \ andivere as assistant to Capt. Postell, and master of transportation, will be a most valuable aid. In this branch of the service we doubt if he has a superior in the country. \\ hile the new superintendent is reti cent as to the future plans of the compa ny, or liis management, yet we under stand that there will be some changes. The headquarters of the road will proba ably be moved from Cedartown to this place, and the road made standard gunge at an early day. The extension to Eden, on the Georgia Pacific, will be com pleted by July Ist, and the road will be pushed eastward from ('artersville. “Bill Arp” in New York. Alaj. C. 11. Smith (“Bill Arp”) return ed from New York last week, having en joyed himself very much at the metropo lis. Ilis lectures were much appreciated and were well attended. The New A'ork papers treated him kindly and wrote some nice things about him. We have not the room to print all, but will make room for the following, from the Sun, of t hat city: Maj. ( has H. Smith, of Georgia, whose quaint writings under the sobriquet of “Rill Arp,” have been widely copiad in newspapers, especially of the" south and west, amused an audience at ( ’flickering Hall last night for an hour and a half with a lecture on “Dixie now and Dixie Then." He drew pictures of the old Southern aristocroey as modifld by the war, and tilled in his sketch with odd fan cies of comment and description. He noted the improvement of the Southern masses as a compensation for the decad ence of the aristocracy. He observed that under the pressure of the new order the Southern girls are getting better ed ucation, while the Southerh boys are going to w ork instead of college. He calculated that the estimated loss to th<‘south by the manumission of the slaves was largely fictitious, aud that in many cases the loss of the slaves was a profit to the master. lie traced in the new south the promise of more general happiness, but lie could not observe much improvement in the colored race. A Seasonable Remedy. At this season of the year when the prevelenc” of bowel troubles amount to such a great extent as to be in many cases alarming, a remedy, a never failing rem edy is very much desired and in demand. The Douhant-Americax can conscien tiously recommend to those suffering from any bowel complaints whatever Dairy's Diarrhoea and Dysentery Specific, a deM shot in every instance. The rem edy is unfallible, at best it has power, so so in the ease of one of the editors of this paper. It is a remedy that none can af for to be without, especially at thiss season of the year. A bottle should be kept on the medicine shelf of every family. It will be seen by referring to an advertisement elsewhere that it is very highly reconiended by some of our most prominent physicians. It is sold by all druggists and general dealers. i One of the hardost worked individuals n this community is Dr. Lindsay John son, w hose valuable services are alway s in demand. He is certainly a very fine physician whose worth is appreciated by all, as attested by the numerous calk for his presence at the bedside of the sick. OVER THE COUNTY. OUR CORRESPONDENTS NOTE THE INCIDENTS OF THEIR NEIGHBORHOODS. And High Them I p in a Delectable Sliaye For Our Readers. TA YLORSVILLE. The non-appearance of the Taylors ville items in your spicy pajier is dne to our noble efforts in trying to keep “Pete from our door. The wheat in this seetjon is considered by many a failure. Our once flourishing Sabbath school is now numbered among the things of the past. Anew post office named “Pasco” has lately lieen established two miles from here on the E. & W. R. IL, with NY. F. Gaston postmaster. Since Dolph Ansley has gone to work the rabbits can now be seen paying “base” near town late of evenings. There were two May picnics near here and one at the cave near Cochran's mill, but on account of our old clothes we failed to attend either of them. \Ve have now a telegraph office at this place which is presided over by Misses Bertha Bogle, and Willie Dorsey, but no courting by wire allowed boys. That young man who continues to bring those beautiful boquets to his girl should con sole himself with Hie thought that when the roses “droop and die” dog fennel won't be to hunt. There is only one church at this , lace the Baptist, and we have preaching just once a month. Now unless there are other churches built here and more of the gospel expounded themajority of us may turn up in that warmer climate. Hymeneal —On Tuesday the 10 th inst.. at H o'clock, occurred the nuptials of Mr. ( has. T. Leeke and Miss Fannie M. Law son. both of this county. The ceremony was performed at the residence of the bride's father, W. J. Lawson, Esq., in the presence of a few of the friends and relative of the contracting parties, Rev. VV. \Y. Brinstield officiating. Shortly af ter the happy pair became as one, the room resounded with kisses and words of congratulation, after which we began to assemble around a table that for beauty, taste and sumptuousness could not have been excelled. All who were present at the marriage were invited to be on hand the next day at the home of B. T. Leeke, Esq., father of the groom, where a most bountiful feast had been prepared for the occasion. It is needless to add that both the supper and dinner were hugely enjoy ed by all present-, and especially by the undersigned bald-healded individual. The bride is one of Bartow's most lovely and amiable young ladies, and one who is well fitted to make a home of happi ness and bliss. The groom is one among our most energetic young men who was recently one of the partners of Leeke Bros., who are now doing a live business in the shingle line, but who has lately em barked in the farming business with flat tering prospects. Judging from his de meanor. Charles no doubt thinks that the year of Jubilee has come. VVe wish for the young couple all the good luck possible. C. H. C. G UM SPRING. Some of the farmers have completed working over their cotton and corn. The wheat and oat iH-ospect looks fine in this section. We organized a Sabbath school at Smith's chapei last Sunday. Rev.

The Cassville Literary Club met at Maj. Dobbins Friday night, and all who attended lmd a very pleasant time. VV. Sea. ADAIIiSVILLE. It is said that Adairsville is built on a lied of black marble. There is this much certain, the old time lime stone will re ceive and retain a high polish. Well we won't make any fuss about it, but old Bartow county is a sight, ain’t she? Mrs. Hancock, a millionaire (?), of Louisville, Ky., about fifty or sixty years old with one tooth out in front, be decked with a gold watch and chain, diamond ring and fifty dollar williams in round numbers has been staying with a lady of this place for a week or so. It is supposed that she became tired of the lady's ldil of fire, as she is gone, leaving Mrs. Hilburn short five dollars in cash and her board bill. When last seen she was walking up the AY. & A. Railroad at the rate of 2: JO. looking back every three steps. The press ought to take charge of her and she would soon be known. She bought a ticket at Calhoun for Chat tanooga, Tenn.
