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. Virgil. Those Accounts. The accounts placed in the hands of Mr. It. B. Trippc for the benefit of my creditors must lie collected, and we hope none will make it necessary to put them in suit. The necessity will admit of no delay. I cannot prevent their collection and hope all will respond at once and pay over to Mr. Trippc what they arc due. Respectfully, C. IT. C. Willingham. Notice to Subscribers. In taking subscriptions for The Frek Press, we did not positively demand the money before its appearance, but stated to most of them, if not all, that we would require payment within the next thirty days. We are compelled to adopt the cash system hereafter. The credit sys tem has already cost ns too much loss—a loss that has greatly injured us. Any man who can take a paper at all can pay at least fifty cents in advance for a good paper. Let the friends of this pajier rally to its support and all pay up with in the next thirty days. tf.

All administrators and executors of estate who choose to give The Free Press their advertisements, can do so by instructing the ordinary to that effect; and W’C hope the friends of this paper will do so. The Free Press has already the largest circulation in the couutv. 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. Wm. P. Lara more. The stand i# eigh 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. The stand will he exhibited at the State fair this fall, w here we are sure a pre mium awaits it. Four Days’ Meeting at Euharlee* Rev. T. E.

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.

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.
