THE STAGING CONVENTION.
An Event long to be remembered by Those
Wlio Attended.
Etowah Rivkk, August 10, 1878.
To the Free Press:
It was the writer’s privilege, in com
mon with many others, last week, to
part like of the genuine and hearty hospi
tality of our county people in and around
the neighborhood of the Grow Spring
churches five miles north-east of old
Gassville. A route towards Pine Log
had been mapped out by the writer,
w ho, you are aware, is one of the wan
dering class of “genus homo” but
prompted by an invitation and some in
teresting information concerning the
prepend ion- at Crow Spring, decision
was made to roam that way. Suffice it
to say that the excellent people there ex
tended a most cordial welcome not only
to your correspondent but to each and
every one who chanced to go. The oc
casion was the convention of the Eto
wah singing classes, or tlieir delegates,
who meet annually, from place to place,
and have for their object the practice and
improvement in vocal church music. The
session began on Thursday, the 15tli inst.
and continued during three days. Mr.
Seaborn Disheroon is their active and
efficient presiding officer and has held
that position for several terms in succes
sion. Just here we cannot refrain from
alluding in terms of praise to the ability,
promptness and executive tact manifested
by this favorite officer He was again
re-elected at this session and William
Luther was chosen Secretary. Amongst
the many excellent leaders w ho officiated
during the three days we cannot fail to
mention a few' with whom a most pleas
ant personal acquaintance was had, viz:
Mr. Jabez Gilreath, Mr. Gwinn and Mr.
John Trap]).
Delegates in large numbers were pres
ent, and singers from various parts of
Bartow, Floyd, Gordon, Cobb, Polk,
Paulding, Cherokee, etc., etc. We met
visitors from Atlanta, Cartersville, Ma
rietta, Cedartown, Rome, Calhoun,
Stilesboro, Adairsville and numerous
other places.
It is the avowed policy of the Con
vention to set aside everything like in
strumental aids to the vocal or singing
service of divine worship, but to sing
with the spirit and understanding, and to
perfect their classes unaided by all such
appendages in the musical development
of the human voice as applied to sacred
songs, and to make each scholar, if pos
sible a lender of melody, teaching them
essentially the art of raising, pitching and
singing tlieir parts in true tune and ex
pression using the old and indispensable
vocal gamut: “ ilo-ra-me-fu-so-la-se-do ,
as the syllabic scale. Fvery manner of
querry pertaining to these objects is dis
cussed and acted upon during their ses
sions. Leaders are called upon by alter
nation to lead lessons of ten to fifteen
minutes each. Not only leaders, but the
entire company of singers, sometimes
one hundred or more would sound their
parts, then sing in surprising unison,
every one beating or making time dining
the entire performance* It was an aston
ishing spectacle; those who witnessed it
and w ho have a proper comprehension of
this character of vocal music w ill bear
me out in testifying to the remakable av
erage excellence of the performances.
There were some who went to criticise,
but came away to praise, admire and
w onder. Each day a bountiful table was
spread near the church, and if anyone
left it w ithout feasting we think it. was
his own fault, for it was as free as the
gushing flow of limpid, chilling w ater
that incessantly pours from that w onder
of the county, Crow ’s Spring, itself.
The occasion, with all Its supplemental
features wits one of rare interest and
happiness to the crowd assembled, and if
any one thinks those singers can’t sing
we say let him try them, hut take care
that the laugh (if laugh should follow ) is
not on himself. They are on the right
track and we wish them God speed with
all our heart.
Saturday, at 2 p. m., the Hon. Wm. IT.
Felton delivered to the assembled multi
tude a discourse on “Music.” It was lis
tened to with rapt attention. We regret
that limited space w ill not admit of a
critical notice of this beatiful address. R
was delivered in the speaker’s masterly
style. Comprehensive, lucid, instructive,
chaste, eloquent and earnest, the memo
ry of it will live always for one at least of
Ids hearers.
Up to the time of the writer’s depart
ure Sunday morning, nothing had oc
curred to mar the harmony, good order
and delightfulness of the occasion.
Next year the convention meets at
Stegall’s Station on the Western & Atlan
tic Railroad. Yours, etc.

The accounts placed in the hands of

and hope all will respond at once and pay
over to Mr. Trippc what they arc due.

Obituary.
John H. Ruekiuan was born in Virgin
ia on November 11, 1810, and died in
Cartersville, Ga., July 20, 1878.
In former days he had been rich, and
it was a grateful remembrance that when
rich it had been his habit and hi# delight
to give liberally to every good cause. He
often averred that in the accumulation of
property lie had always hut one con
trolling motive—to do good. During the
war reverses came, and for many years
he was compelled to battle with poverty
and debt. But his spirit never sank.
His faith in God emulated that of Job.
It was at once childlike and sublime. To
him the bihle was, indeed, the hook. Its
study was almost the sole emply of his
leisure hours. And it was no mean in
tellect that he brought to this study. His
mind, naturally strong and clear, was
full of the spirit of investigation. On
theological questions he called no man
master. He read and thought for him
self. His views were his own, and they
were held with corresponding tenacity.
After many years of great feebleness
the last sickeiiess came. It was protract
ed through several months. Obstinately
iie disputed the issue. At last, compell
ed to recognize the approach of the end,
lie began to arrange his few worldly af
fair# as calmly and as carefully as though
preparing for a short summer tour. There
was not the least alarm. A few hours
before he died, when the writer stood
alone at his bedside, he drew my hand in
his, and pressing if closely, he said, in
that measured, emphatic way peeuliar to
him, “I only wish to say I love Jesus and
Jesus loves me.”
A good man lias gone. Afterlife’s fit
ful fever he rests well. J. T. X.
IngenloiiN Mechanism.
There is on exhibition at Wiklc’s book
store one of the most tasty, beautiful and
unique flow er-stands we have ever seen.
It is made by what is called scroll work
of beautiful, original designs and is the
handiwork of our young townsman. Air.

teen inches long, twelve inches wide and
twelve inches high, and makes a most
desirable parlor ornament. As there are
fifty-tw o separate and distinct pieces, and
they are sawed in most inconceivable
patterns, it will lie readily seen that Afr.
L. possesses much patience and skill. He
works at this kind of “projecting” for
amusement, and the many people who
have seen the last mane of his skill ad
vise him to go at it in a professional way.

A Novel Feauture
Present* itself to those who use Dr.
Parker’s Hair Balsam, in the discovery
of its rare and remarkable merits. Many
have written ns expressing tliejr delight
in tin 1 fact that it works like acharlh. Its
disinfectant properties in chemical com
bination rendering it healthful, cleansing
and healing are bearing fruit, and the
beautiful hair it produces, with the clean,
healthy scalp, entirely freed from dan
druff and falling hair, are acliivements
for which we have reason to feel proud.
A patron assures us that he lias used
twelve different hair preparations and
that Parker’s Hair Balsam surpasses them
all. To liair that has become gray or fad
ed, it restores that beautiful natural col
or of youth, and produces a vigor and
luxuriance that surprises every one. Buy

Female Suiciding. —Poor, frail wo
man ! How sad the life and how terrible
the death of many. The midnight plunge,
the lover’s leap, the bloody dagger, the
poison’s venom are all brought in requi
sition to shorten life. And yet another
mode of self-destruction is more frequent
than all others combined. While moth
er and daughter are guilty the father
smiles an assent. Females are absolute
ly hurrying themselues to premature
Graves by refusing to cure the long list of
female diseases that constantly afflict
and emaciate, while others suffer
with monthly troubles of a chronic na
ture implicating the whole system.
Young girls have become almost unfit for
life and mothers drag a miserable exist
ence. You can lie cured of all this suff
ering, and why hesitate? Dr. Drom
goole’s English Female Bitters has cured
thousands and will cure you. It is a
powerful permanent tonic and female
regulator. augls-2wp
Too Much Physic. —Yes, many peo
ple are killing themselves with strong
medicines. They are making miniature
drug shops of their stomach. Pills, calo
mel and blue mass are taken in quanti
ties for constipation, biliousness and
headache. The vital organs becomes
overpowered and paralized by the use of
strong drugs, the desgins of nature be
comes frustrated and disease is the result.
Constipation cannot be cured by the use
of drastic purgatives—it may give relief
to-day, but the complaint will return to
morrow. Mild and pleasant remedies are
the best for constipation, headache, bil
iousness, dyspepsia, etc., and for this
purpose nothing equals Bailey’s Saline
Aperient, it acts speedily and effectual
ly, is cooling, pleasant and sparkling,
and can hardly be called a medicine.

Vegetine has done for me. Vlmut two years ago
a small sore came on my leg: it soon became
a large Ulcer, so troublesome that 1 consulted

from day to dav. I suffered terribly; f could not
rest day or night; 1 was so reduced my friends
thought 1 would never recover; 1 consulted a
doctor at Columbus. 1 followed his advice; it
did no good. 1 can truly say I was discovered.
At this time 1 was looking over my newspaper;
1 saw vour advertisement of Vegetine, the
“Great Blood Purifier” for cleqnsiqg the blood
from all impurities, curing Humors, Ulcers, &c.
1 said to my family, 1 will try some of the Vege
tine. Before 1 had used tile ljrst bottle l began
to feel better, 1 made up my mind I hftd got the
right medicine at last, I coil Id now sleep well
at nights, I continued taking the Vegetine. i
took thirteen bottles. My health is good. The
ulcer is gone, and I am able to attend to business.
1 paid about four hundred dollars for medicine
and doctors Indore i bought the Vegetine. I nave
recommended Vegetine to others w ith good suc
cess. I always keep a bottle of it in the house
now'. It is a most excellent medicine. Very re
spectfully yours, F. ANTHONI.

MEDICINE.
Henderson, Ky„ Dec. 1877.
I have used 11. ;{. Stevens’ V egetine, and like
it better than any medicine 1 have used for pu
rifying the blood. One lot tie of Vegetine ac
complished more good than all other medicines 1
have taken. THOS. I AXE,

Vegetine is composed of roots, barks and
herbs. It is very pleasant to take: every child
likes it.
