m When you're fpenking of a leaflet,
Why, you mean a little leaf;
Would you call a man a “thieflet,”
If a lowly fclatuicd thief?
If yon fell into a bromlut,
An:l the little thorns wers there,
Would you say it was a “damlet”
When you swore a little swear?
In alluding to a streamlet,
You would mean a little s:ream ;
Would yon call yonr wife a r< amici”
If she screamed a little scream?
Thoug.li a little hen’s a pullet,
It would be an awful hull,
If you said that you were “fullci”
When you mean a little “full.”
And, in speaking of a roralel,
You should rneau a little ram,
Would you ask a slice of Hamlet
H you meant a little ham?

ment Association met this day ac

ard, Vice-President, presiding.
Read the proceedings of the last

The executive committee made the
following report, whicn was adopt
ed:
We recommend that the associa
tion prepare and make an
exhibit of the products of the soil,
and minerals and manufactures of
Bartow county at the Fair of the
State Agricultural Society at Macon,
in O t>b( j r, 1884; which exhibit shall
be transferred to the World’s Indus
trial Cotton Centennial Exhibition at
New Orleansin December next, 1884,
under the auspices of the State Agri
cultural Society. We urge this be
cause we think Bartow county and
our section of the state of Georgia aa
inviting a field for ente-prise as any
other section of the United States.
We can thus show to the world the
products of our soil, forestand mines,
which we hope may lead to a multi
plication of our industries and pro
ductive powers and attract immigra
tion from all quarters. This exhibit
should comprise the following ob
jects:
I. Agriculture.
11. Horticulture.
111. Raw manufactured products,
ores, minerals and woods.
IV. Furniture and accessions.
V. Texile fabrics and accessions.
VI. Alimentary products.

of the World’s Industrial and Colton
Centennial Exposition, the full de
tails of which will oe furnished to
our association on application to the
commissioner of the exposition for

cock, Esq.
We further recommend that our
association cause to be prepared by
competent persons, and have the
same published, a pamphlet to ac
company the exhibit made and for
general distribution, which shall ful
ly and particularly set lorth the re
sources of our county in soil and min
erals, with full description of our
wonderful water power and the ad
vantages for successful manufactur
ing enterprises, and genial climate
and, in fact, all that would attract
immigration to our section if proper
ly published to the world.
In order that the exhibit shall be
prepared in a suitable manner, and
reflect credit upon our county and
lead to oenefieial results, we recom
mend that the sum of one thousand
dollars be raised by the finance com
mittee to defray the expenses, the
same to be expended by the execu
tive committee of the association.
Wo recommend that, at the month
ly meetings of the association any
member be allowed to propose a sub
ject for general discussion at the next
regular meeting, the object being
to discuss and exchange views upon
any subject looking to the improve
ment of the various interests of the
county.

Ihe Miustrel Boys at lodartoun.
On Thursday last the Merry Makers
Minstrels, an amateur company com
posed entirely of Cartersville hoys,
boarded the train for Cedartown.
Capt. Lester, oue of the few men
who are, by nature, admirably suited
for the position of conductor, was in
charge of the train. The beautifully
picturesque country through which
the East and West road passes, ren
ders a trip from Cartersville to Cedar
town especially interesting and pleas
ant. At 12 in., we reached Cedar
town. After a hearty dinner at
Crabb’s hotel, the minstrel boys pa
raded the streets, led by the Carters
ville brass band.
Long before night we knew full
well that Philpot’s hall would be
crowded with an appreciative au
dience, eager to witness the perform
ance. When the time drew near, the
good people of Cedaitown began to
wend their way towards the hall;
and at 8:15 p. m., there were at
least three hundred assembled to en
joy a good show for two hours. From
the beginning to the end of the per
formance, the audience laughed and
applauded; from the wealthiest and
most cultivated to the poorest and
most ignorant— from the elegant and
beautiful and charming young ladies
to the dirty little street urchins—all,
all, gave indication by continuous
and hearty laughter and applause,
that the show was being appreciated
and enjoyed.
We did not intend to make any
discrimination in giving an account
of the performance, but we must say
that Will Skinner and Frank Ander
son were very fine in their special
ties The were enthusiastically en
cored on their vocal duet, which was
admirably rendered. Fiank Ander
son in the “haunted hou-e” scene
“took” splendidly.
The trip to Cedartown was a de
cided success, financially and other
wise.
We return thanks to Jud Crabb for
many favors shown us. He is cer
tainly a fine fellow, whole-souled
and generous.

Decoration Day at Cassville.
The custom of putting flowers on
tho graves of those who died for the
“Lost Cause” is a beautiful one.
Nearly twenty years have glided by
since the memorable surrender of Lee
at Appomattox. Court House, and
still fair hands annually bedeck with
lovely flowers, as a tribute of respect
and gratitude, the last resting places
of our noble and brave and patriotic
soldiers, who died lor principle. In
doing this our southern women do
not desire to drag up from the dead
burial places of the past the old bit
terness and animosity, but they in
tend simply to give vent to a feeling
of love and veneration for a soldiery
as gallant and chivalrous as ever
marched to the strains of martial
music.
A goodly number of people, last
Saturday afternoon, assembled at the
Cassville cemetery to perform this
approved and praiseworthy rite. At
three o’clock the orator of the day,
Mr. VV. J. Neel, was introduced to
the audience by Mr. Theo. M. Smith,
of Cartersville, Mr. Neel spoke for
thirty minutes. His thoughts were
well timed and clothed in a verbiage
beautiful and striking. He believed
that it was wrong to stir up section
alism and strife, but thought that
the custom of scattering flowers over
the graves ol our fallen heroes was
right and should be perpetuated.
The speech was well delivered and
made a fine impression.

A Day in the >: onn ry.
Ou last Wednesday Mr. and Mrs.
J >hn W. L. Brown had a number of
friends to spend the day and take
dinner with tnera at their elegant
country residence, five miles west of
town. The party was composed of
Miss Nelia Jones and Miss Maxcy
Field, of Cartersville; Miss Mamie
Johnson, of Macon; Miss Josie Fowl
er, of South Carolina; Mrs. T. H.
Shockley, of Marietta; Miss Addie D
avis, Mrs. C. M. Field, Messrs. Arthur
Davis, Ben Akerman, and Will J.
Neel. A gayer or more congenial
little party were never thrown to
gether. The day was perfect, and
the scenery was superb. The view
from this delightful country place is
rare and exquisitely beautiful The
winding river, the fertile valley, the
sloping hills, the verdant woods, and
the grand mountains, with the white
clouds resting on a blue sky for a
background, made a picture of the
most entrancing loveliness.
Mr. and Mrs. Brown entertained
w ith a generous and lavish hospitali
ty. John plays the part of “hue.
band” with ease and dignity, and his
charming young wife is the very
goddess of the household. The sump
tuous dinner over which she so grace
fully 7, presided was a collation of good
things such as is rarely set before the
average mortal. As the slanting sun
beams kissed the western woods, the
gay little party took their leave, feel
ing that such happy days as this were
the oases in the dusty journey of life.

Decoration Day at Rome.
The Rome Courier has the follow
ing to say of Mr. Akin’s address last
Saturday:
“Services were commenced with an
able prayer by Rev. Dr. Bunting, at
the conclusion of which, the choir,
under the direction oi Prof, de La
< roix, rendered a grand chorus. The
concise statement of Miss Mary No
ble, the excellent treasurer of the La
dies’ Memorial Association, was read
by Dr. L. R. Gwaltn'-y, who also in
troduced the orator of the day, Mr.
John W. Akin, of Cartersville. Mr.
Akin’s address was short, chaste and
eloquent. Our people expected to
hear something good from this dis
tinguished young orator, and their
expectations were fully realized. He
paid'a glowing tribute to the memory
of those who wore the gray, and in
referring to the efforts of the ladies
of the Memorial Society to erect a
confederate monument, he said :
“ ‘Rome may well (eel proud of
the reputation she has established as
a thrifty, rapidly growing city—the
commercial center of North Georgia.
She is entitled to the enviable posi
tion she occupies. But her people
should be more proud of this monu
ment, when it is erected, than they
are of ali their commercial prestige.’”

Things look lively now on the pub

hotel. About fifteen workmen are

and saw ring a lively tune on the
new Cherokee depot. Every good
citizen in Cartersville is rejoiced to
see this Duildiug in cour.se of erection.
It wi'd add something to the railroad
view of the town as well as be a con
venience to the public. The ground
plan is 72x40 feet and the house will
be neat and convenient.

A Suggestion,
Uncle Tom Smith, who was killed
by the down passenger train on the
Western <fc Atlantic railroad about
two weeks ago, at the Puckett cross
ing in this city, left an aged and de
crepit wife in very destitute circum
stances. She is about eighty years
old, is very infirm, and has no prop
erty or means ot support. There are
many people in and around our city
who do not think the engineer of
the train did his full duty in giving
signals and stopping his train, and
that if he had done so the unfortu
nate accident would not have occur
red. Iu view of these facts it would
he a very handsome thing for the
railroad company to give this old
lady some pecuniary compensation
for the great loss she has sustained
and thereby relieve her temporal
wants and sufferings. We think we
reflect the sentiments of many good
people in making this suggestion.
Soda Water, oh, so cold! at Word’s drug

Professor Marshall has recently
