TUESDA Y, JAN. 8, 1884.
MT WE PROPOSE TO DO.
The Cartersville American
begins its career for 1884 under anew
corps of editors. The character and
deaigo of the paper, of which the
tret number under the new regime is
here offered to the public, are in
tended to be shadowed forth in this,
oar salutatory.
Firstly: The American is to be
aa earnest advocate of that high and
holy Democratic Principle which
was designed to be the fundamental
element of the social and political
system created by our Revolutionary
fathers. Whenever and wherever,
ia our humble judgment, the demo*
eratic party shall need a purification
ftrem those corruptions and those
hostile influences, by which we have
seen its beneficent and glorious ten
dencies, to no slight extent, perverted
and paralyzed, then and there shall
we be found battling with all the
power that we can command, and
using every honest effort, to bring
about this purification.
Secondly: The American shall
always be found on the side of truth,
sobriety, morality and Christianity.
Wbatever*smackß of vice shall, at all
times, receive oar unqualified de
nunciation; whatever is virtuous and
ennobling, shall always receive our
decided approval.
Thirdly: We shall earnestly strive
to give our patrons a bright, newsy
and readable paper, keeping them
thoroughly posted as to current
©vents, but eschewing everything
that would have the slightest ten
dency to obtund these finer feelings
of tenderness and humanity which
an enlightend people should most
oednlously cultivate. The vices of
some journals, as regards profanity
and vulgarity, are nearly as formi
dable as those of intemperance. Oar
opinion is that all such newspapers
should bo utterly excluded from the
homes of respectable people.
Lastly: We shall deem it our im
perative duty to exhibit to the world,
in a fair and just manner, the illim
itable natural resources of Bartow
county. Born and raised iD this
county, knowing her people, sympa
thizing with them in their short
comings and glorying in ther suc
cesses, it is but natural that we should
earnestly desire to see them pro?per.
When The American, under the
new management, has been fairly
launcher! on the great sea of journal
ism, we will begin a series of bio
graphical sketches of the successful
men—living and dead—of Bartow
county.
We are conscious of the fact that it
is no riasy task, in this day of enter
prise and push, to make a county
newspaper all that it should be. But
to do this, is the aim of no mean am
bition, in which success will he with
out alloy, and failure without dis
grace,
THE SEW SOUTH.
It seems to be the fate of any great
principle which may become a po
tent factor in shaping the character
•ud determining the destiny of a
people, to De retarded in its develop
ment by the very ardor with which
the few embrace it. The multitud*
strongly conservative, nor alway
unwißely so, cling to the memories
of the past, hallow and revere tie
traditions, ideas, and institutions, o'
the fathers, and are prone to repe*
all innovation as wild and chimeric*
**nd dangerous. This conservatism
? the wisdom of a beneficient Provi
denoe, may have its uses in obvin
ting the shock ef too sudden tran-:
tion; but when driven to ob*tif ■'
by the intemperate zeal and * nthu ‘
asm of the advocates of change, i<
often effectually obstructs the path
way of legitimate progress by gu rd
ing with unyielding devotion m i
- trnst, its holy treasures. „
The New South doctrine ha-, no
escaped this paralyzing and damag
ing advocacy on the part of unwis
zealots. No Jees a personage than
Dr. Haygood, of Emory college, in
the frenzy of an overleaping desire,
has done the idea that he champions
more positive inquiry than he evei
anticipated doiDg good. His vault
ing ambition has o’erleaped itself and
has fallan on the other side.
Dr. H’s course as regards the New
South idea has been pretty thorough
ly discussed by the newspapers. New
3oath is nothing more nor less than
a designation of a peopre whose po
litical principles, whose sentiments,
whose characteristic modes of life,
are widely variant from those of the
south in ante-balfum days. The
name, with its present i nport aim
pties fhe acceptance, in good faith, of
the results of the war; the abandon
ment of the states—rights secession
theory; and tho perpetual preserva
tion of the union of the states. This
name has been sought to he popular
ized, by elaborate serials in northern
monthlies, by glowing descriptions
of the living physical resources of the
country, by loviDg pictures of ihe blue
skitfs and orange groves of the “.Sun
ny clime;’ 1 and last, but not least, by
crocodile tears, so freely shed for the
fancied woes,and unredressed wrongs
of “our brother in black.” Without
admitting the wisdom of elevating
the negro to full citizenship, the New
South recognizes it as an accom
plished fact, and proposes to help the
negro to discharge the trusts of citi
zenship, by educating him and using
all moral and religious methods for
his elevation*
Industrially the New South is far
in advance of the old. Now the
progressive farmer studies those
habits of economy and thrift that he
once regarded as beneath his dignity
to practice. He has learned from
experience that reckless extrava
gace and princely ease are not the
highways to fortune or happiness, or
the pathway to respect and esteem
from any but sycophants, He has
learned how to meet reverse,and, if he
unable to control unpropitious events
he accepts, without repining,the inev
itable and resolutely applies himself
to the task of retrieving his shattered
fortunes. This progressive farmer has
laid aside his habit of easy indiffer
ence, which he so gracefully wore in
former days, as too antiquated and
unserviceable to be either an orna
ment or a protection. Asa conse
quence of all this immigration is en
couraged; skilled labor is in demand;
capitalists are drawn southward,
lured by the bright an promising
future which dawned so auspiciously
at the Atlanta Cotton Exposition
Mills and factories are uowarising in
Georgia and in the other Soutnern
states, as indicators of our progress.
Enterprises of such “pith and mo*
ment”as the Georgia Pacific and the
East and West railroads through the
prolific mineral beds of Alabama are
being pushed forward by southern
men. Thus we are laying the foun
dation of a more glorious future than
was ever possible for the Old South,
insulated as she was from the rest of
the world by her peculiar civiliza
tion.
All hail to tha true New South
which clings to the heritage of the
past but marches bravely forward to
the glories of the future!
THE OUTLOOK FOR 1884.
The Christinas holidays with their
good cheer, social gatherings, fat tur
keys and fruit cake and egg-nog, and
the brisk trade that always comes at
this glorious season; have gone glim
mering into the irrevocable past.
We all feel more or less sad when we
think seriously of the fact that we
are being whirled along so rapidly
through tho short space of life. Each
succeeding year of our lives seems
shorter than the preceeding one.
But when Christmas has come and
gone, and anew year has dawned
upon us with its unknown joys and
sorrows, with its hidden failures and
successes, with its multifarious duties
to be performed and battles to be
fought, than is i‘ time to “bestir our
selves and to go to work in down
right earnest.
After the storm comes a calm, is
no more true of natural phenomena
than of sudden and temporary up
heavals in the commercial world.
Consequent upon this we would na
turally expect to find our merchants
idle, and to hear complaints of dull
trade. But we can truthfully assure
our readers that such is not the case
as regards our Cartersville merchants.
Though not as mueh business is do
ing at present as during the week
immediately preeeeaing Christmas,
yet we have failed to find one ol them
who is complaining or who appears to
he low-spirited and gloomy. On the
contrary all are wide awake and busy
as hees.
A prominent business man of this
place lold us yesterday that he was
confident that Oartersville had a
more promising out look now, at the
beginning of 1884, than she has had
in many No ostentation
demonstrations of mammoth enter
prises, he said, have as yet been
paraded before the public; but under
- kings of considerable importance,
that woukl greatly enchunce the va
lue of real estate and the business of
our city, are now bnqg set on foot
and skilfully engineered by shrewd,
■xperiencad and monied men.
Our prominent merchants are even
now making arrangements preparat
ory to the laying in of large and
well assorted stocks of spring and
summer goods in order to supply the
great demand which their keen in
sight into the future tells them will
be created by our increased prosper
ity dnring the present year. Still
further, the feeling that we are stea
dily and surely moving onward and
upward, seems to have been infused
inte us all, from our wealthy mer
chants, bankers, and money lenders
to lhe urchins who con
gregate on; Bunk block and solicit
“boots to shine.”
“Is this a singing doll?” asked she
of the clerk. “Yes, mademoiselle.”
‘How do you make it sing ?” “Ju-t
as you would any young lady.”
“How is that?” “By pre sing it.’,
“Oh!”
WUAT IS IT t
In another column will be found
an article taken from the Atlanta
Journal. This article tells us some
curious things in regard to a wonder
ful young lady who lives near Cedar
town. We plead ignorance as to this
mysterious power which Miss Lula
Hurst undoubtedly possesses. Wil[
some one rise and explain?
We do not believe all that is claim
ed by “mesmerists,” but we must
plead guilty tc the crime of belief in
“auimal magnetism.” We have
seen and listened te so much, by the
positive evidence of eye and ear, and
aud .of mind distrustfully and vigi
lantly attentive; we have read and
heard so much of the testimony of
other, from whom it is impossible
for us to hold our confidence, that to
disbelieve were harder than to be
lieve.
One thing is certain : that when
the barrier is once removed which
confiaes our belief to the old limits of
our habitual ideas and experience ;
w lieu we once make the first Btep be
yond the ancient beaten pathway,
and admit a belief of a single one of
the seeming miracles or impossibili
ties of mesmerism or animal magne
tism , no reason remains why we
should refuse, on reasonable evidence,
to pruceed further. A thousand im
possibilities are not more impossible
than one. The verv first fact of
mesmerism reveals at once the exis
tence of a whole world of new truth,
graud, fearful, profound, relating to
that great mystery, in the shadows of
which we live and move and have
our being When we plant the
first footfall 'upon the threshold of
the portal to which this astonishing
discovery introduces us, long and
deep are the reverberations which
come forth from the yet dark depths
that lies beyond. And while they
may hid us tremble with awe, aud
perhaps with ;fear, they at the same
ti .ne prepare our minds for untold
and unimagined wonders to bo dis
closed by our further investigation
wonders to which our present obscure
and feeble vision, both of eye and of
mind, cannot pretend to assign a
timit.
We do not believe that any but
Divine power can raise spirits from
the dead. Mesmeric spiritualists
claim that they can raise the spirits.
We do believe, however, that some
persons are endowed with the power
of reading the thoughts of others,
under certain and peculiar circum
stances. As to the belief in the pow
er of raising spirits, wo are open to
conviction.
CHRISTMAS IN THE COUNTRY.
We spent a merry Christmas. Our
recollection of it stays with us like
the echo of a sweet song, or the
memory oi a pleasant dream. Wo
went to the country, to the dear old
homestead where a venerable, white
haired grandfather still lives to wel
come his children and his childrens
children, and never did the name of
grandpa have a sweeter sound in our
ears. Not only were the latch
strings on the outside, but the doors
were swung wide open, and a royal
welcome tendered ns. As we write
of it and remember the happy faces
by which we were surrounded, the
roaring country fires which we luxu
riated, and the feast of good things
in which w r e so unsparingly partici
pated, we feel at peace with all man
kind, and in love with everybody.
To think of rich butter and milk,
and sausage, and spare ribs, and back
bones, and coid ham, and chicken
and turkey, and light foaming bis
cuits, wafiles, and batter cakes, and
and fried potatoes, and partridges,
and coffee, and pastry, aud cakes,
and custards is enough to make an
irresiatabie smile burst from be
tween these lines and run all over
the paper. We could do our readers
no greater kindness than to hope
that as the years roll on eve "7 Christ
mas will bring them as much solid
comfort as the one of 1888 brought to
us. In view of the pleasure of our
holidays we can afford to say ‘‘a
happy new year to all.”
What a clearing out of shop win
dows and hill boerds if all juries and
judges would do their whole duty !
In response to the presentments of a
jury last Monday in Philadelphia,
Judge Arnold said : “What you say
with regard to the exhibition of ob
scene pictorial papers in shop win
dows and at stands in the street
comes with particular force and time'
iiness. It will apply also to the dis
play of obscene posters. These
ihiugs constitute a crying evil. A
society ought to be formed for the
eradicatiou of other evils. I remem
ber the time when the exhibition of
such pictures as some theatrical man
agers and publishers of a certain
order of pictorial papers now show
with impunity would have had to
be clandestinely exhibited, if at all,
tor fear of an indictment. But these
managers and publishers pave grown
bold with toleration. They scatter
their vile prints broadcast to pollute
society. The effect upon the minds
of youth and perhaps upon some
peoplp wfyo are not young is demor
alizing to thw Jpt degree. It is high
time that steps were taker) to wipe
out the evil.”
Speaker Carlisle is beginning to
boom up as a presidential candidate.
Mr. Carlisle is a wise legislator and a
stgtesmaa with broad and conserva
tive views* if a southern man,
is, at all, available, we know of no
one that we would rather see matte
president and none that would fill
the ex.dted p< sdion, with more abili
ty than the present sneaker.
ROGER A. PRYOR.
“Just after the war,” said Gen.
Pryor to an interviewer, “you will
remember that our southern land
was desolate. I went to Richmond
to try to make a support for my fam
ily, but the outlook was gloomy, in
deed. In the depths of my melan
choly a friend suggested that I should
go to New York and practice law
I looked at him in amazement, and
told him that I knew nothing about
taw. He replied, ‘that doesn’t make
any difference —go anyhow.’ I re
flected for a moment and concluded
to adopt his suggestion. I went
home, talked to my wife, and we got
our family and little household ef
fects together and started for the me
tropolis. Upon my arrival there I
secured desk room in a law office,and
for several years experienced the in
describable pains of a briefless bar
rister. After I had grown pallid
with despair, a gentleman walked
into the office one day and inquired
for Gen. Pryor. It was such au un
usual thing that it startled me more
than at battle. I didn’t know wheth
er he had come to dun me or to put
me in j til. I boldly replied, howev
er, ‘That ig my name; what can I do
for you?’ ‘I wish to retain you in a
lawsuit which will come up iu the
Supreme court to-morrow.’ After
explaiuing to me the nature of the
ease, he asked how much my fee
would be. I didu’t know what re
ply to make him. I felt if I charged
SIOO I might lose his business, and if
I didn’t charge him that much I
wouldn’t be getting enough. Iu my
bewilderment he said, ‘lf I pay you
what 1 agreed to pay my other coun
sel, will that satisfy you?’ I jumped
at this proposition and told him that
it would be entirely satisfactory.
‘Well, I agreed to pay him sl,ooo—
down and the other SSOO when
the case is tried.’ No SI,OOO ever did
a iamily more good than that did
mine.
“I went immediately to the great
law library in the post office building
and it seemed to me I read every
book in it. The next morning when
the case was called for trial I threw
my whole life in the afgument, and
nay side won. From that dale I have
had all the law r business that I could
attend to, and am now prospering
splendidly.”
The letter of Dr. Codtou, advocat
ing the appropiation of the surplus,
in the treasury, toward the payment
of slaves emancipated, is meeting
with a deservedly severe criticism
throughout the couulry. We ate
unable to conceive of a motive that
could have prompted the doctor to
write such a document. It was sure
ly not with a hope of riding to con
gress on it, for we do not believe that
there is a coastituence in the state,
or the south, that would be influen
ced into supporting a man that en
tained such views. We would not
accuse the doctor of wanting such an
unenviable noteriety, as the espousal
of such an absurd idea would give.
The doctor must have feared that the
northern papers wero getting short
of ammunition, and desired to re
plenish their arsenals at least that has
been the result.
A Walton county widow has set a
terrible example that should be warn
ing to young men who presume too
much upon the magic influence of
I heir good looks, and who offer to take
liberties with females without solici
tation or incouragement* The young
man in question, who only put his
arms abound the waist of a lady, was
not satisfied, by being repulsed sever
al times by slaps in the face; hut per
sissed in his ungentlemanly assault,
until she convinced him, that his
embraces were unappreciated, and
r that she meant to defend her virtue,
by seizing her trusty rifle an blewing
the top of his head off. This is one
of the dearest hups on record. But
it has a moral- That is. young man
be satisfied with a slap. Young
woman defend your honor, and if
necessary resort to the rifle.

The bachelor editor of the Consti
tution, devolope the fact that Georgia
is second only to Texas in point of
fecundity. There are are born inside
her borders every year 58,930 babies,
an average of? every hour night and
day the year through. He further
deveiopes the fact that Georgia has
more centennarians than any other
state in the union, This speaks well
for the grand old commonwealth,
and something for which she might
feel proud.
Now, if the bachelor editor, of the
Constitution, can devise some means
by which immigration from her ter
ritory could be stopped, she will soon
be made independent by a native
population.

HELP FOE THE POOP.
The following editorial from Snn
day’? Constitution will give our read
ers a faint idea of the miseries of the
poor, during extremely cold weather,
in our southern cities, even.
It i£ difficult to conceive how any
man or woman who reads the story
of suffering in another column of ihe
Constitution this morning, cau refuse
to heed the appeal that follows it.
No man who saw what we saw
last night could refuse. Little chil
dren shivering with dead cold and
cryiug for bread—heipness women
with pinched faces and blue lips, and
praying to God for help—huts, no
closer than your stables, with the
wind whistling through a hundred
cracks ana not a spark of fire or a bit
of fuel in the house—human beings
bundled in scanty rags like brutes—
men and women, sick or blind, or
worn down with hunger and grief
about on bare floors, seffering dumb
ly and in dispair. These are the
pictures just as they stand —notone
whit overdrawn, and but hints of
scores of other*.
It may be that some of these are
unworthy, and others worthless. It
may be that this woman has a hus
band, or that old mother a son, or
those little children a father that
ought to support them. All this
may be. But what of it? Here is
suffering. Here is hunger and cold.
Here L the childish cry of pain and
wonder, torn from little frames un
conscious of all else but pain. Here
are prayers from mothers or wives
that are deserted or neglected by no
fault of their own.
You feel the bitter cold yourself.
Even in your well-build house, with
furnace and roaring fire, it is almost
impossible to keep your well clothed
children warm. You can understand
how it is, in huts of planks loosely
joined, in which there is no fire, win
dows in which there is no glass.doors
that cannot be closed, and children
with the scantiest clothing. Does
aot this comparison suggest your
duty?
Now, this help i- needed at once!
There is no time for delay. What is
done must be done this morning.
There are hundreds of woman and
children in this city that through
every hour of iast night’s bitter cold,
prayed for morning and hoped that
God might send some help with the
blessed light of day. The longer you
wait the longer these people will
suffer.
This is a duty that comes home to
every man and woman. It is a cry
that can be shut out of no’ear. If
•all heed it who ought, fifty wagons
will be traversing the streets of this
city in two hours from the time you
read this appeal, and by the lime
night has come again, fires will be
roaring and sparkling in a hundred
homes that are dark and cheerless
as we write.
Let us get at it with a will, and
with Atlanta’s accustomed dash and
energy. Let us warm up the whole
town. Let us kindle every hearth
stone everywhere and know that
every man, woman and child in At
lanta is warm and comfortable to
night, no matter how cold it may
get or how the wind may blow. Let
us do the thing, this odjm, in Atlan
ta’s grand old way. Let us mage
this a Sunday Worth talking about.
If we don’t, it will make itself a Sun
day worth blushing about!
Send what you can, or bring it, to
the Constitution office at the earliest
moment. If you can give much it is
well; if you can’t and give little, it is
&ll the better! But gtve something
and something and give quickly!
