There is a large number of persons indebted to THE Free Press for subscription and adver tising. Some have been taking the paper ever niiice it was commenced and have not paid one cent for it. Many have promised to pay up at harvest time. Now, we have to say that we are very pressed for money to pay what we owe to parties who have favored us, and we want every rent due us within the next twenty days. It has been a severe and constant struggle to keep the pai>er in existence. We have waited patiently for our friends to come to our rescue; and, now, will they fulfill their promises and ob ligations to us? It requires a constant outlay of cash money to publish a newspaper. We cannot afford, and will not semi the paper to any one longer than a year on a credit. The first year of The Free Press will expire on the 18thof July, 1879, and we hope all wilj come forward, settle up for the past and renew with the cash. Those owing for advertising must settle. We have waited on some of them too long already. WE NEED THE MONEY. AROUND THK TOWN. Notes Uathcred Here and There by Our Reporters. Eggs 15. Corn 80. Butter 20.

A letter is advertised in the Home post office for Mr. M. Dobbins. A little more rain on Tuesday morning and a leaden sky yesterday. A little more brick and mortar would not hurt Cartersville very much. C. E. Caverly and Phil. Haralson are the drummers that whoop ’em up. Tjy. full in the price of wheat has caused a lull in the market this week. Percy Magnus, a popular young drug gist of Atlanta, ran up to see us one day Ibis week. The new wheat is well developed—the best known in years. There is but little smut in the grain. W. E. Johnson, of the Atlanta Consti tution, was in the city last week in the interest of that paper. We are looking for those subscriptions that were to he paid at harvest. Let all remember their promises. Jimmy Garrison has resumed liis du ties at the telegraph olliee after tw-o or three weeks of unwellness. Mrs. Mary Shepherd, administratrix on the estate of Jno. W. Shepherd, has a no tice to debtors and creditors. Mr. T. W. Baxter and his bride arrived in Cartersville on Monday after an ex tended wedding tour to the north.

They are selling goods at cost. Maj. C. H. Smith (“Bill Arp”) has been chosen to deliver an address to the press association of Tennessee at its an nual meeting next year. There was quite a pleasant sociable at the residence of Mr. A. C. Smith last Thursday night, where the young people enjoyed themselves finely. The Dalton Citizen should hire the man that got up the outside of that paper last week to edit a funny column. Oh, my! how he would make people laugh ! Lewis Erwin, for some unaccountable reason, still lingers in Cartersville. In this connection we will also state that Torn Lumpkin doesn’t insist much on his remaining. Gen. Young, who has been absent for more than a year at the Paris exhibition last year, and at Washington City for the past months, returned home Monday morning in splendid health. Miss Maggie Elliott, of Rome, is visit ing the Misses Hoss, at the St. James. She returns to Rome next Monday and will be accompanied by Miss Carrie Hoss, who goes to stay several woeks. We im agine some of our young men will be going to Rome about the 4th of duly. The commencement of'the Lucy Cobb institute, Athens, last week was very brilliant. In the junior class, the medal was awarded to Miss Fannie C. Newton, for the second time. Miss Fannie is a sister of Mrs. J. B. Conyers, of this this place. The medal in the academic course was also awarded to Miss Lucy S., a still younger sister of Mrs. Conyers. Miss Fannie will pay her sister a visit here this week. Now, if aunt Jeems Anderson, of the Covington Star, think that we would go way to that little berg just to prove that Cartersville has the p. g. in 1.1., he’s powerful mistaken in our true character, besides, why should wo go to all this trouble when there’s no proof needed ? S; iy, you old bald-headed snipe of the valley, wern’t you at the last press con vention? If so, where were your eyes? Now, if you say that Cartersville hasn’t jhep.g. in t. 1., we stamp you, right “ere, as no judge of beauty. Mr. <l. TV. Davis Crushed to Dentil. Our community was shocked Monday when the morning passenger train ar lived here with the remains of a young man raised in this county, the son of Mr. Joseph Davis, living in Stamp creek dis trict. It appears that the deceased has been employed by the Keystone bridge company on the Cincinnati southern rail road for several months. He was in Chat tanooga on Sunday with friends and left there to return to his place of employ ment. The Chattanooga Times in its ac count of the disaster, says that, about 8 o’clock Sunday morning a very serious accident occurred at Cave Spring, on the Cincinnati southern railroad, which re sulted in the killing of two men, fatally injuring a third and seriously hurting three others. Col. Neely went up the road with a few friends, his main busi ness being to take out money to pay off the laborers. Col. Neely and his friends were on the engine, as there were no passenger cars attached, and were consequently made unwilling witnesses to the unfortunate accident. Just after the engine had left Boyce station, several men, laborers on the road, were observed on the pilot, and as it is positively against orders to ride there, the engineer and Col. Neely order ed them off. They did not get off, how ever, and just before they reached Cave Spring; the engineer shut off the steam for the purpose of coupling some flat cars, which were standing on the main track at the rock crusher. The engine commenced slipping on the track which was wet and slippery when within a few yards of the flat car. The fireman had run out on the running board of the en gine to make the coupling. He saw the men on the pilot and told them to get out of the way. The engine continued to slip, and the engineer reversed the lever and opened the sand pipe, which, how ever did not stop it and he opened the valyes and put on steam. As this time the engine was within a few feet of the flat car and the men on the pilot began to see their peril and endeavored to escape, but before the) r could do so the engine had struck the car, and slided up on the pilot, “telescoping” it, thus pinioning one of the men to the head of the boiler, which killed him instantly. Ilis name was Jerry Roberts, a negro who lived at Marietta, Ga. A white man, named Geo. W. Davis, who lived near Cartersville, Ga., was so badly injured about the head and chest that he only lived five hours. Another white man named J. L. Gregg, who lived near the place of the accident, is so badly bruised about the chest and abdomen, that it is believed he will die soon. Geo. McDonald, who lives at Bos ton, Mass., was also on the pilot and re ceived some very serious injuries, though not necessarily fatal. Several messen gers were immediately dispatched for medical aid, and very soon two physi cians were on the spot, and rendered all the aid they could for the relief of the wounded. The Times says the railroad manage ment very deeply regret this accident, as they hoped to complete the road without any serious accident. "Every one seems to entirely exonerate the road from any blame. Mr. Davis was about twenty-five years old. Ilis remains were carried home on Monday. The Saratoga of the South. The Catoosa springs, as a watering place and summer resort, is the center of gravitation in Georgia. We knew Wrenn would make them so. The grand inau gural ball, on Tuesday night, a corres pondent informs us, was an elegant aflair and a big success, and lie writes us that it was the finest springs hall he ever at tended in Georgia or the south. There were about 150 present, including belles from Macon and Atlanta and some ot the best families in the south. The directors or lessees ot the*State road arrived and were handsomely received, and declared themselves much pleased. Two fine bands are engaged for the season and furnish excellent; music. A large party arrived from Atlanta in time to attend the ball. The Catoosa springs this season will be the Saratoga of the south, and are already only equalled by the Green Briar of A ir ginia. Accommodations for four hun dred guests are made. Among the prom inent already there are Gov. Brown and family; Col. Nutting and family, Gen. Holt and family, Col. Johnston and fam ily and Mr. Saulsbury, Misses Tracey, Johnson, Nutting and Holmes, of Ma con ; Col. Morrill, Misses Law, Freeman, Peters, Force, Mrs. and Miss Fitzsim mons, Mrs. Douglass, Mrs. Powers, Mrs. Edgar Thompson and Terry Towns, of Atlanta. A brilliant season is already assured at the Catoosa. A Fine Artist. It is a conceded fact that Mr. J. S. Young, of Rome, is the best artist in north Georgia, While in that city a few days ago we had the pleasure of looking through his studio, in the Shorter block. Ills crayons are simply elegant, and re llect great credit on the artist. His pho tograph specimens are also very line, being one of the largest and finest we have ever seen. He takes great pleasure in showing visitors his specimens, which he is justly proud of. We suppose a great many of our readers will go to Rome on the 4th, and we would advise all those who need anything in his line to give him a call, llis prices are very low. junc'29 4t Rush of Wheat to Market. Our farmers arc pushing their wheat to market very rapidly. Over four thous and bushels were sold here on Saturday last, and thirteen cars were loaded with the golden grain on that day. Our wor thy agent here, Mr. J. C. Wofford, is a business man and a rapid shipper. I p to the time of going to press 10,000 bush els of new wheat has been sold in this market. t For Sale. We have for sale two pianos, an or gan and three sewing machines which can be purchased on good terms. The goods will be ordered from the factories when sale is made. tf * Kingston Kindlings. Most of our business men occupy their idle time playing chess. A man having a monkey and hand or gan afforded considerable amusement for the town children the other day. Some of our older ones took stock and seemed to enjoy the monkey’s performing very much. The railroad officials who passed over the road examining the books of their agents found Captain Davidson’s all O. K. They will always.find them that way. Messrs. Beasly and Lannunr inform us that they saw r frost on Saturday morning last, the 21st inst. Mr. Mabbit and family are visiting his father-in-law. Dr. C. N. Mayson. Mr. Mabbit lias a host of friends at his home and is making scores of them here. Messrs. Haney & Bros., the live saw mill men of north Georgia, have ordered a locomotive which will be here in a few days. They are preparing to use it im mediately. Seven or eight miles of track have been laid. They are going to haul logs to their mill with it. The corps of surveyors seem to be winding their way slowly down the river. They have pitched camp on Mr. Dent’s place. A mule ran away with two young la dies near town a few days ago. They now call it a romance. No damage. We attended a musical meeting, a few evenings since, at Dr. Kinnebrew’s. Dr. Kimbrew, Mr. Rollins and Mr, Hines on their violins, accompanied by Mrs. Kinne brew on the piano, discoursed such mu sic as is seldom our pleasure to hear. This is not the first time this able quar tette have gladdened.the hearts of the young people of our town. The senior editor of The Free Press has not forsaken us. lie spent a few hours with us Tuesday. Come often, we are always glad to see you. Miss Ida Price has returned from col lege alter a long and fatigueing examina tion, though she, as usual, looks well. Corn and cotton have been suffering very much around in the country for the want of rain, though a light shower on Tuesday morning revived vegetation a little. Tim. Church Chimes. Services at the Episcopal church Sun day morning and afternoon. Rev. Mr. Headden preached a very fine sermon last Sabbath at the Baptist church to a large and appreciative au dience. Mr. Headden is a faithful ser vant of the church and a most zealous worker in the interests of Christianity. Rev. Mr. Ryburn preached a short but impressive sermon at the Methodist church last Sabbath evening. If we could only remember in this life our ob ligations to God and our fellow-men as vividly and continuously as we shall remember opportunities neglected and blessings despised, in the life to come, how much happier men and. women would be now and forever. Rev. T. E. Smith, of Cartersville, preached morning and evening on Sun day last in the Presbyterian church in this city, to good ancl attentive congrega tions. Ilis sermons were able and earnest expositions of the way ot salvation, ac companied by solemn appeals to his hear ers to avail themselves of the offer of free and unmerited mercy contained in the gospel. The pastors of the Methodist and Baptist churches held no night ser vices, but came, with a portion of their congregations, to worship with their Presbyterian brethren —a courtesy which was properly appreciated by the latter. — Milledgeville Union and Recorder. ♦♦♦ m “Bill Arp” at tlie Opera House. On Tuesday night next, Major Smith will deliver his popular lecture on “Southern Society,” at the opera house, for the benefit of the Cassville ladies’ me morial association. The association owes about fifty dollars upon the confederate monument, and as Cartersville has no such care on her hands, we hope Major Smith will be greeted by a full house. Our citizens will not only hnve the op portunity of enjoying a highly intel lectual treat, but will give aid in a most sacred cause. The admission price is only twenty-five cents. Come, citizens, all. and let us show our appreciation of intellectual enjoyment and love for the memory of those who bravely died in the “lost cause.” The Blumlors of Printers. In spite of the greatest care blunders are made in printing offices. When it is remembered how many type have to be set up in a paper, often from bad manu script, the wonder is that more blunders do not appear. Last week an advertise ment appeared in our paper of a colored school on the Rowland farm. The name of one of the trustees was printed “G. W. Satterfield” when it* should have been “G. W. Satterwhite.” But these errors will occur in spite of the greatest care, but they are very annoying, neverthe less. The Atlanta Dispatch.

It gives us pleasure to note the increas ing popularity of Dr. J. T. Shepherd, as a physician. With that uniform kindness which marks his every act, he makes even the sick room cheerful, while his profes sional skill is undoubted. The good tem plars may well be proud of such a Worthy Chief.

The wheat crop in this section has come fully up to our expectations, the general average being fifteen bushels per acre.
