In days like these, when things congeal,
Man wants but little ear below,
Nor wants that little long.

he will not recover.
We learn that there is talk of building a
new brick store house on the east side of
the city during the present year, for the
purpose of establishing another hardware
store. We have not been able to learn
who is to be the builder.
The Cartersville “ bloods ” have at last
succeeded in forming a club, known as the
“Owls.” They say they are going to stir
things up in a social way in Cartersville,
and show that there is a little life in the
old land yet. They deserve to succeed.
Mr. Henry Grady quota Hon. A. W.
Fite as saying that the cold weather w<is
the cause of the defeat of prohibition in
Gordon and Floyd counties. This is a
new excuse, it is generaly “nigger vote,”
However, we believe there i3 something
in Mr. Fites reason,
The base ball season has opened again.
The boys held a meeting last night to or
ganize, and “ball to the bat” will soon ring
out on the evening air. It is to be hoped
that offices, shops, store rooms and plow
pandlcs will not be neglected to advance
the interests of the “national game.”
The complaint comes from the farmers
of many parts of the county, “ The cold
weather has killed my wheat and oats.”
This is bad news —very bad—and we hope
they are mistaken. We wish the farmers
from the various sections of the county
would address a postal card to this paper
giving their opinion as to the condition of
the small grain crop. Every one is inter
ested to know.
Wc dropped in to see George Waldrup
and Dennis Vandivere last Saturday
night. They have formed a partnership,
and combined their two stocks of groceries
and confectioneries, and now have the
prettiest store in town. They are both
clever young men, and deserve the large
patronage they receive. They are doing
about the largest retail grocery trade of
any house in town.
The mining property and water-power
in this county recently sold by the Eto
wah Manufacturing and Mining Company
to a Rome company for SIOO,OOO can now
Ik: sold, so we learn, for $150,000. Rnt the
Rome company refuse to acoept this
sum. The property i3 worth, in the opin
ion of competent judges, at least $250,000
in its present condition, and if developed
it. value is almost beyond computation.
The day will come when Bartow minerals
will be appreciated.
lCcv. Sam Jon/ j* in Charleston.
The Charleston papers give full and
glowing accounts of the great revival
meeting now being conducted by Rev.
Sam Jones in that city. From the ex
tended accounts of the News and Courier
we clip a few paragraphs ;
lhe Rev. Sam Jones draws larger cou
giegationa than any man lias ever done
before in Charleston. His plain and
pointed presentation of the truth strikes
the hearts of his hearers with such force
that tney crowd to the church every day
to hear him. Bethel Church can seat, in
cluding the galleries, one thousand per
sons. Every night the building is packed
by people of every circle in society and
of every religous belief. The congrega
tions that attend the 7 o’clock and the 11
o’clock services are larger tlujn the
usual Sunday congregations. The work is
not confined to any denomination, but is
aided by the pastors of all the Christian
churches. Many of the Charleston clergy
attend the services regularly.
Among the many pulpit prodigies that
have been born to Methodism in a cen
tury, there have been none with Mr.
Jones’ peculiar gifts. He is unique, he is
sui generis ; there is nothing like him in
history or the prohecies. He is to the
church what Edgar A. Poe Wiis to liter
ature. He has a hidden power. He imi
tates* no mou and no man can imitate
him.
Home Missions.
The month of Febuary has been so
disagreable that the committee on Home
missions has been greatly retarded in its
work. In view of ibis l appeal to the
members of the Baptist Church to open
there hearts and their purses in the inter
ests of the work. My report will be due
the church on Sunday evening next and
L would like to have a report from all the
members of the committee, by Saturday
evening.
James J. Conner, Ch’m’n.

nity—while the groom is a sterling young
man, worthy of his prize. We wish them
a long, prosperous and happy life.
“Owl Club.”
This newly organized social club will

There has been one case of scarlet fever
in Cartersvillc’recently, and much anxiety
has been felt lest the disease should spread
among the children. But so far no other
Ceases have been developed, and it is hoped
that the danger is over. The report got
out that oue of Mrs. Brame’s pupils, board
ing in the house, had the fever, which
caused some of the resident children to
stop school. Dr. Johnson informs us,
however, that this is a mistake, and that
it is only a case of very severe sore throat,
a complaint that is very general just now.
Baker & Hall, the hardware men, are
preparing to build anew store house on
the north corner of Bank block, between
Wilde’s book store and the St. James ho
tel. We understand that the house will
be forty-five feet wide and two hundred
feet long, and will be built of the very fin
est quality of brick. Messrs. Baker &
Hall are among the most successful busi
ness men in North Georgia, and their bus
iness lias grown until it extends over sev
eral counties. When thier new store room
is finished it will be the handsomest busi
ness house between Atlanta and Chattan
ooga.

TATTLER TALKS.
One of Cartorsville’s euterprising mer
chants sent a statement of his account t<>
a professional man in the city List week,
with the request that it l>e paid. The
professional man, iu a very business-like
way (he is in the legal business) wrote
ou the face of the account “Nulla bona”
and returned it to the merchant. La
conic, wasn’t it.

Leap year proved a profitable oue for
our Ordinary. I was “nosing” among
the records the other day and found that
nearly two hundred marriage licenses
were issued in 1881—an increase of
more than 40 per cent over 1833. Aud
yet there are people who say that girls
wont improve their leap year privileges.
But according to the record they do.

I have fallen into the habit of saying
what I please, and I please to say just
here that Walter 51. Eyals, city editor of
the Couraut, has it iu him to make one
of the best newspaper men in Georgia.
Ho h;is entered journalism as a profes
sion, and will hereafter identify himself
with the newspaper interests of the state.
His style of writing is easy, graceful and
original. He puts locals together iu a
readable way, and gives bis news a fresh
ness that few can imitate. He has a
brilliant versatile and well-stored mind,
and is bound to push his way into popu
larity as a writer. I will bo glad when
lie mounts the tripod, at the head of the
most prosperous daily iu Georgia.
It is a matter of surprise and regret
that so many mortgages are being given
by the agricultural class of our people to
provision dealers for supplies to make
their next crop. An inspection of the
records in the clerk’s office will prove the
correctness of my observation. Almost
every mail brings a batch of these mort
gages from Rome, Kingston and Ad airs
ville and other places to be recorded. It
is unfortunate that our farmers should
have to embarrass themselves by deed
ing away their crops, stock and lands for
supplies on which to operate during the
year. This “all cotton” farming is the
secret of this ruinous practice, and yet
it grows worse every year.

The sureties ou the bond of Frank F.
Gray as administrator of the Tumi in es
tate, have given bond aud entered an ap
peal to the Supreme Court of the United
States from the decree recently rendered
against iiim and them in the Circuit
court at Atlanta. The applicants are
J. 51. Veacli, A. C. Trimble, R. L. Rog
ers, W. I. Bonham, J. J. Howard and
perhaps one or two others. The bond is
for a very large amount (the decree
being over $47,000) and is signed by
James H. Pcrter and James R. Wylie,
of Atlanta, as sureties to whom Messrs.
Veach, Trimble, Rogers, Beuham and
Howard have each given a mortgage on
their farms as indemnifying security iu
case any loss should be incurred by reas
on of signing such appeal bond. These
mortgages cover some (if tlio finest prop
erty in Baitow county.

Oil two different occasions I have com
plained because the Methodist people of
this city do not finish the steeple on
their church. I am now reminded by
one of our public-spirited citizens (no
matter whether he is a Methodist or Bap
tist) that the tt'eple on the Baptist
church, with its rusty and mill-dewed
tin covering, is, by no means, an orna
ment to tlie city; and looks very little, if
any better that the Methodist church
with no steeple at ell. Since I come to
think about it (the reason I think about
the Methodist steeple, I suppose is be
cause my office window looks that way)
tlie steeple of the Baptist church is a
sorry, cheap-looking affair and needs at
tention badly. Let’s see if something
can’t be done to improve its appearance.
I vouch for the truth of the incident
that follows, on the authority of Curters
ville’s portliest and most dignified aider
man. He told about it in the following
way: “I was coming up from Cedar
town on the East A West one afternoon
not long since. In the rear of the coach
Ia young couple w ho seemed to be very
deeply interested in each other. The
young lady was well-dressed and had
nice manners. Her eyes were bright,
her cheeks rosy aud her lips vermilion.
Her companion was a young commercial
traveller whose face is often seen in Car
tersville. The young couple appeared
to be much pleased with each other, and
in spite of their surroundings were in
dulging in soft speeches aud melting
glances. After awhile the young man
suggested that they go out on the rear
eud of the coach and enjoy the beautiful
scenery. The afternoon was bright and
the sun was shining across from the west
in a genial way, casting long shadows
towards the East. The train sped along
through fields, over bridges and around
curves, and in my admiration of the fine
farms to be seen from my window, I had
almost forgotten the young couple on the
coach. The train was gliding along
through an open field when my eyes fell
on the shadows of the young couple re
flected against the embankment on the
side of the coach where I was sittiug. I
could distinctly see the outlines of their
figures and the profiles of their faces —
even the motion of the young man’s lips
and the shad )W of the youug lady’s eye
lashos could bo seen. It was amusing to
look at and I o died the attention of my
; neighbor on the next seat to it. Soon
I almost every one in the car was watching
the shadow i. The young man seemed
to be very earnest and the ycung lady
very' attentive. Gently, and as if by ac
cident the shadow of the yt uag man’s
arm glided around the shadow of the
young lady’s waist, and the shadow of
the young man’s li]* were seen to
“pucker” and dive at the space between
the shadow of tlie young lady’s chin and
nose. The passeegers in the train be
came deeply interested, aud as the shad
ows would meet time after time a titter
would mu up and down the line inside
the car. ‘Dippin’ sugar,’ said one old
fellow down in the corner. ‘Gum suck
in', ’ said another. It seemed that I
could almost see the sparks of electric'ty
fly out of the shallows on the bank as the
lips came together. About that time the
whistle blew for town, and the young
couple came iu looking harmless and in
noceut-like, and the young lady remarked,
“Wasn’t the scenery just too lovely?”
‘Street would have been a better word,’
said the old fellow iu the corner in a qui
et undertone, anil every body laughed
iiko he had said something funny. I
wouldn’t have you to tell this for auy
thiug, because if you did, a certain young
commercial traveller would feel curious
when he heard it.” Certainly I’ll never
tell it—that is, hardly ever.

Mr. Bennett J. Conyers spent List
week in Cartersville—being called home
by the sudden death of his father, the
sad particulars of which are familiar to
the readers of this paper. 51 r. Conyers
is now teaching at Jefferson, Georgia,
where he has a school numbering over
one hundred and twenty-five pupils, with
a prospect of two hundred when the
weather opens. Ben’s friends in Bartow
will be much pleased to learn of his suc
cess as a teacher. He lia3 energy, natu
ral ability and scholarship of a high or
der, aud his friends up here are expect
ing much of him. I rejoice more than I
can tell in the success of our young men,
and if I appear to sound their praises
frequently it is because of the deep in
rcrest I have in them. Ido not apolo
gize for it —rather do I feel it my duty to
write good things about them when I can
do so truthfully. slr. Conyers left on
Saturday to resume his duties iu the
school.
5Ve give this week a correct likeness of
Senator Garland, who it is thought will
be in the new Cabinet. We furnish
these pictures of prominent men of*the
day, at an expense much greater than
tlie same space would cost in aeadiug
matter; and the fact that many of the
leading metropolitan journals of America
aud Europe have continued this feature
for some time, argues that the intelligent
reader is pleased with it. Wo tried the
plan of “filling up” with broadside pros
pectuses, etc., of our own paper, aud
even the children preferred Lydia Pink
ham’s picture, or even Kendall’s old skel
eton horse, running from the birds of
prey. So, the procession will move on.

Rome Bullettin ; The reports from the
farmers all along the line of the Coosa

the planting of larger crops the coming
season than for years past. The increase
in acreage will be devoted to corn, wheat
and other grains, The eyes of the farmers
are opening to the faot that while cotton is
king, he sometimes bankrupts his slaves,
and somo are learning that wheat, corn,

Colds are easily and often imperceptibly
contracted, and a neglected cold often
leads to incurable consumption. In no
disease is the adage more applicable.—“A
stitch in time saves nine.” Never neglect a
cold! and always have in readiness “Mans
field’s Hungarian Balsam of Life—the best
lung medicine in the world. Keep it in
readiness and use it upon the first intima
tion that a cold has been contracted. It
is the old and time-tested English cure
for consumption, and has relieved more
cases than all tlie “Cherry Pectorals” and
“Expectorants” combined. It is free from
opium and narcotics, and is nature’s cure
for lung diseases. Keep it in the house.
