We are back at our post again, after

right royal welcome.— Atlanta Constitu

We would like to see one of the new

ta Constitution.
Capt. T. J. Lyon, who was appointed
a delegate from this congressional dis
trict by the state agricultural society lastl
week to attend the national agricultural
congress, which assembled at NashvilL
on Tuesday, left Monday morning for
that city.
A nice white fehce around onr young
park in front of the St. James would be
a great improvement to the looks of our)
village. We learn that a gentleman ha
proposed to do it for nothing if he will
be so allowed, and our city council ought
not to object.
A yonng friend, writing from Mebane
ville, N. C., says of The Free Press :
“It has become quite a favorite with my
friends, too. They represent a very wide
area; and I often hear them say that the
Cartersville Free Press is, on the whole,
the best country journal of which they
have any knowledge.”
Cartersville wants street lamps. The
boys want something to hug on their way
home.— Atlanta Phonograph. Mistaken.
The Cartersville boy is too much of a
“bold, bad man” to suffer agonies for the
want of something to hug. They are
generally estimated as “chain lightning.”
Ira Fort, conductor, accompanies the
accommodation train from here to Atlan
ta every morning. He is one of the clev
erest men that ever pulled a bell-rope,
and to be chaperoned to Atlanta by the
boy is a supreme delight to the ladies.
Fact is, they can’t make a cleverer man
than Ira.
While the “old-man-on-the-othei-side”
was munching his toothsome valentine
last week, we were poring over the one
we got, with a red hot fever running
through us at the rate of 1,500 miles a
minute. We only got the single one and
we hope the sender may read this and
hear us say that any person who would
send such a diabolical thing to a sick man
is mean enough to throw rocks at a grave
yard, and that we hope the person will
catch tbe measles in twenty-four hours.

Spring has began to dress herself in
her suit of green.
There is a small acreage of wheat
sown in this section.
The few warm days we have had is
bringing forth the wheat.
Farmers are very late preparing for the
coming crop, but I suppose it is largely
due to the exceedingly bad winter.
Messrs. Oglesby have erected a gin
factory on the creek near Mr. 11. S.
Crawford’s, one mile from town. They
,are good workmen and have fine ma
chinery.
Capt. J. M. Davidson, the favorite de
pot agent of the W. and A. railroad, in
forms me there has been more freight
delivered from this tlepof this spring
than there lias been since he has been
here. He says it is because so many far
mers are buying corn.
Our city fathers are making the citi
zens walk very circumspectly. They
recently had arraigned two of our oldest
citizens before them, which was quite a
joke on one of our landlords. He repre
, sented himself to a “peep-show” man as
the mayor of our city, for which he was
fined $2.85.
Mr. C. Miller's little boy, about six or
seven years old, was driving a mule near
the railroad the other day when the cars
came along and frightened the mule and
vthrew the boy, cutting* a gash near the
temple laying bare the skull. Dr. W. 11.
Kinnbrew dressed the wound, and now
reports him as doing very well. Vale.

—— ♦
I)r. Robertson’s New Field.
We learn from private and reliable
resources that Dr. Robertson bids fair to
rapidly rise to prominence and distinc
tion in his new home in Atlanta. This
is exceedi ugly gratifying to all who ever
even casually met the gentleman, because
to hear the briefest expression of his
beautiful and sensible theories but creates
admiration for the man. May he, who
himself is a most magnificent illustration
ot the unrivalled excellence of his school
live to a ripe old age to do good among
his fellow man. We copy the following
from the Atlanta Gazette:
For some year or two observant Atlan
ta. people have heard reports of wonder
ful cures being effected by a water-cure
establishment near Cartersville, Ga.,
managed by Dr. C. O. Robertson. While
the establishment was modest, it was
certainly conducted upon the soundest of
principle, and by competent physicians.
M r eek after w eek it turned out cases that
had been considered hopeless, these cases
being of the most respectable classes,
and the process of the cure having been
watched at every stage, and reported
upon by unimpeachable witnesses. At
length the fame of this institute so spread,
and the patronage so increased that it was
deemed best to remove it from its charm
ing but inaccessible home at Rowland
Springs and bring it to Atlanta, where
the world could get its benefits.
There is no more fatal mistake made
than in the lavish and constant use of
drugs and nostrums. By a treatment
under the old methods a patient risks
ruin as much as he courts cure. Under
the hygienic treatment, which is alto
gether used by Dr. Robertson, and it is
utterly impossible for it to prove injuri
ous, we believe earnestly that the estab
lishment of this model hygienic institu
tion here, w ith its bright record, if? able
management, and its long experience,
will effect a revolution in the treatment
of chronic diseases. That the world w ill
be much healthier by tire change cannot
be doubted by those who have ever given
the subject any study. We shall have
more to sav on this subject in the future.
To tlie Public.
An observer looking over the condition
of things in Cartersville, would beg
eave to make a few timely remarks.
Why is it that some of our people are
ignoring some of our oldest and best
business men, and are bestowing their
trade upon those Who are much less iden
tified with the town, and in many in
stances building up other towns and
places through these men to the injury
of our own ? Why are there in our midst
those who feel no interest in the growth
and prosperity of our own manufactories,
but who are ready in many ways to in
jure them by making disparaging and in
sinuating remarks about their products?
Who that has observation can fail to see
that all such people are .enemies to the
town. Every one can see that our inter
ests are mutual. What builds up one
helps all; what prejudiees.one prejudices
all. We are one in spite of all our strife?
jLet us learn better, and then we have
hope that Cartersville will do something.
We have no patience with but supreme
contempt for that man or people who can
detract from or rob his fellow-man of his
justly acquired reputation.

Death of Mr. L. K. Kamsaur. * ,
This worthy man died at his home at
Fairmount, Gordon county, on. Sunday
last, the 23d inst. He was born in Lin
coln edunty, X. C., in 1817, moved with
Jiis father to Gordon county, then a por
tion of Cass, in 1837, and resided at the
same plate till his death. He was a man
of great moral worth and integrity, re
spected and honored by all who knew
.him, and above all a highly Christian
gentleman. lie was buried on the 25th
at the family grave-yard at his home by
his neighbors', and a larger funeral pro
cession of heartfelt mourners was never
known in Gordon county. Thus has
passed away another good man. Peace
to his ashes.
Off for California.
Mr. Alfred Auerbach, who has been in
business with his brother Charles at thff
Xew York store in this place for several
months, left yesterday afternoon on his
return to San Francisco, where he w ill
resume his old business, that of fringe
weaving at a handsome salary. Our
young fi iend made many friends while
here, who regret his departure but w ish
him success. He will be succeeded here
by 3lr. Fred Cohen, of St. Louis, who ar
rived ou Tuesday,
Magical.
We thought the town would escape but
a blind fiddler has sang *‘My Grandfath
er's Clock” on the streets.
There are enough singers in the town
to produce an operatic and contata. Why
don't somelnxly bulge out?
11. M. Mounteastle & Cos. have just re
ceived 500 pieces of sheet music. There’s
uo use now in sending aff after your mel
ody.
Without the least provocation and
meaning every word we say, the Carters
ville brass band is one of the finest in the
state. They have no reed instruments,
but their full set of horns are performed
upon in the most scientific manner. Prof.
James, the teacher, is a musician, who
has proved his excellence by the way in
which he has brought the band out of the
kinks.
Oscar Ilackett, organist, bass drum
man of the brass band, and double bass
player in the string band, has departed
for Indiana. The boys hated to give
him up. Tom Head now blows the bass
drum in the brass band and Jim Mount-
Castle has harnessed himself to the bass
fiddle.
The advertising agent of the Swedish
Lady Vocal Quartette is looked for every
day. This will be a grand musical event
for Cartersville.
Notwithstanding we have a great deal
of music in Cartersville, teachers of that
science don’t seem to get opulent very
fast.
M r e suggest open air concerts by' the
brass band from the stand in front of the
St. James once a week. It would be a
free tiling and we know the Cartersville
folks would patronize it.
“Baby Mine” hasn’t seized the Car
tersville musicians yet.
We want to hear Albert Scheur sing in
public, and if somebody don’t bring him
oufcsoon, we’ll organize an opera compa
ny of our own and hire him.
The quadrille band is steadily progress
ing. Their music is excellent and very
tempting to the heels.
A Bartow Boy.
A Dalton correspondent of the LaFay
ette Messenger has this to say in regard
to a young man well known in this coun
ty: “Rev. XV. C. Luther, formerly of
Bartow, is the pastor of the first Baptist
churcn in Dalton, (Rev. R. T. Hanks
having resigned and gone to Albany,
Ga.). W. C. Luther is onl}’- nineteen
years old, and is said to be the most
youthful pastor in the state in charge of
a city church. Yet he preaches with
ability and power. He is a fine reasoner,
a sound theologian an eloquent and for
cible speaker.”
Religious Services at Cass Station.
The good people of Cass Station have
secured Rev. J. T. Norris to preach

month at Wofford Academy. Mr. Nor
ris is a good man and an excellent
preacher.

Pocket-Book Lost.
It was in the town of 8., and Mr. S.
had just concluded some purchases,
when he made the startling discovery
that his pocket-book was lost. While
searching his pockets he found a buckeye
and said, “gentlemen, my pocketrbook is
lost, but there has been something dis
covered by Dr. Tabler, of Nashville, of
far greater value. It is the Buckeye File
Ointment, which will cure Files in all
cases, when used according to directions.

U. O. ROBERTSON, 31. D.,
Hygienic Physician and Electro-
Therapeutist,
Begs leave to announce to the
citizens of Bartow, Gordon, Cobb, Cherokee,
and other counties of North Georgia, that, for the
sake of rendering his mode .of treatment more
universal and available, and the Health Institute
equally easy of access to patients in all parts of
the state, has removed from Rowland Springs to
Atlanta where he lias permanently established a
Health Institute.
The -AAlaixta Health. In.wtitu.te
is the only institute south superintended by reg
ularly qualified Hygienic Pliyeicians, and the
only place where all kinds of" curable diseases
are' scientifically treated without a particle of
medical drug in any form, and with success nn
paralelled by any other known process of treat
ing diseases.
Parties who are, because of continued dosing
and drugging, considered incurable, are re
spectfully requested to visit or correspond with
us. Thousands of chronic invalids, after having
patiently tried the “deadly virtues of the (drug
ophatic)"healing art” and with no other change
than that of growing continually worse and
worse, have under the Hygienic system of medi
cation, been speedily and pennanedtly restored
to health.

THE H. I. KIMBALL HOUSE.
Scoville, Seldeii & Cos.,
Proprietors,
ATLANTA, : : GEORGIA.
rpHE KIMBALL HOUSE IS ADMITTED
JL to be the finest hotel building in the
Southern States, and the equal in interior ele
gance and comfort of any in the whole country!
The entire building will be thoroughly com
pleted, and all the rooms will be newly and lux
uriously furnished throughout
The lessees on their part will spare neither
labor or money in their personal efforts to con
duct the business in such a way as to make
THE KIMBALL HOUSE
worthy of the most liberal patronage. They re
fer to the high reputation of the several hotels
now under their management (the Arlington
and Norvill Houses in Lynchburg, ami the Ar
lington. in Danville, Va.) as an evidence of
their ability to carry out their promises in good
faith. With ample means and resources, they
do not hesitate to pledge to the people of Geor
gia especially, as well as of the whole couutrv,
that
THE KIMBALL HOUSE
will be kept up to so high standard of excellence
as to delight all who may seek pleasure and com
fort under its roof.
The city of Atlanta enjoys well-merited fame
for the healthfulness and salubrity of its climate,
being 1100 feet above sea level; and hence is be
coming both a favorite
Summer and Winter Resort.
Its splendid elevation fortifies it against the en
croachment of malarial diseases, and exempts it
from the enervating influences peculiar to many
less favored localities. Atlanta has proven in
vulnerable to the visitations of yellow'fever and
cholera, and is accepted as a suitable point of
refuge for exiles from districts infected with
those epidemics.
