Memmler, M. D.—Dear Sir: It is with thank
fulness and pleasure that I now write you this
testimonial of the great beueflt you have confer
red on me and my family in your successful
treatment of my wife. We have been married
six years the 11th of next January. She has
suffered in many ways, principally with distress
iu the bowels and stomach. The first year I
paid out |175 for doctors’ bills and since iu the
s' me proportion. The second year I paid $87.00.
The third year $387.00, the fourth year J 155 00.
Her health got so bad that at last on the first of
July last she took her bed and was not able to
rise at all. I was compelled to call in doctors
again. Oue said she had typhoid fever, and
another heart disease, another womb disease. It
seemed that all help was gone. Then in my great
distress, God sent ire help. Mr. Ed. Freemau,
upon whose place I wa3 farming, came to me
and told me ol a testimonial he had seen to you
from Mrs. Goodman for relieving tape worm,
which you. doctor, had pronounced the disease she
was silvering with, after you had made a thor
ough examination. To my great surprise, the
third day after I had called you in, I came iu
from work aud found my wife silting up! A
short time afterwards you took from her a tape
worm measuring fifty feet, to my great astonish
ment. It was crawling around like a suake and
made my very hair rise. No man can sympa
thise with me unless he has suffered as I have,
and then he has ha l his wife restored, you may
say, from the dead, to him and the duties her
family require from her. Thanks to Mr. Ed.
Freeman for recommending you tome, Doctor.
My wife says, “God bless ymi, Doctor, f.jr th?
good you have done me.’’ II ming that others
nmv ie relieved from like suffering, is my rea
son for giving this testimony to you.
Very respecAfidlv,

CARTERSVILLE. GEORGIA, THURSDAY MORNING. JANUARY % 1883.
RuBERt A. ANDKKSON.
Superintendent of the Western X Atlantic
Railroad.
We fiml the following truthful sketch
in the business career of an okl Dalton
l>oy in the Railwaw OaseAte, which will
doubtless be read with great interest by
the older citizens of the place—tho*e who
knew him in the days of auld lanj-syne:
To give in detail the birth, education
and advance to honorable position ol the
prominent men of the times affords the
highest incentive to persistent effort that
cat) be presented to the mind of the
young. Hence, the following brief sketch :
Iti the history of tiie young men of
Dalton, Ga., who by their own efforts
have won a name and a position honora
ble and to be envied, none have succeed
ed better or more honorably than Robert
A. Anderson, the presentsuperintendent
of the Western and Atlantic railway.
Mr. Anderson was boin in Henry
county, Georgia, in 1833; but his father
removed to Dalton in 1847, where tiie
subject of our sketch received his educa
tion aid business training. His father,
John Anderson, is well remembered By
the older citizens of Dalton, and enjoyed
the respect and esteem of all who knew
him.
Young Anderson attended school in an
old log school-house that stood in a pine
thicket on the site now known as the
Hark in which the court-house stands.
His time was divided between the school
house and clerking in his father’s store
until 1852, when he attained his twenty
third year. At that tune he obtained a
clerk-hip in the W. &*A. <Epot at Chat
tanooga, under Gen. win. Bishop, tiie
agent.
His faithfulness to duty caused him to
be regarded as a fixture, li is long con
tinuance, under changes ct administra
tion, when political influence and not
meritorious and efficient.service ruled ap
pointments, was complimentary in the
highest degree. But studiously inform
ing himself as to the working of the road
in ail its details, acquainting himself
with the minutest particdlar of the rule
and regulations, and disci urging every
defy assigned him with con-eientious
scrupulousness, he did. v hs-t all young
.nen should strive to do—oe made his
services indispensable, and each new*
agent in organizing his force, when he
reached Anderson was tore* I to tiie de
cision—“l can’t do without nitu.”
In 1859 he was made assistant agent at
Chattanooga, which positron he held un
til the position was evacuated by Gorie.-al
Bragg. Being custodian of the books,
papers and records of the office, he es
tablished himself hi a box '-ar —ore vising
an office on wheels, and fell L ck with
the army, laboriously nerfort ling all tiie
duties of mi officer of the id until the
>v muatioii of Afhinti 5 'on. Hood,
who, after Gen. J. E. Jm.Y-.m, succeed
ed Gen Bragg. He then was assigned
to duty on rhe engineer .corps, with head
quarters nr. Macon.
On the return of pence and the restora
uott of the VV. it R. property, lie return
ed u> Chattanooga with the books and
papers, and was appointed agent, by Col.
Robert Baugh, superintendent of the
road. Four months afterwards be re
signed to accept the Atlanta agency ot
tiff* Macon & Wesiet'i railway, under
Mr. E. B. Vv ilker, wbo% t-boeu (superin
tendent of it. No man, perhaps, is more
widely known in railway circles than
E. B. Walker—none were better ac
quainted with the superior qualifications
of Mr. Anderson than he —and hence, it
was a compliment of the highest charac
ter to be selected for that responsible po
sition.
After holding this agency until Janu
ary, 1870, he was forced to resign on ac
count of impaired health ; and by the ad
vice of his physician, went to Florida.
The long-continued strain upon his con
stitution by severe service and exposure
had so undermined his health that his
anxious friends believed his recovery im
possible. It was hoped, however, that
tiie milder climate of Florida would re
store him to health and vigor; and, sure
enough, to the glad surprise of all, he
soon returned, restored to anew lease of
life.
iu the meantime there had been anoth
er turn of “rorrnne’s wheel,” and his
old-time appreciative friend, Col. E. B.
Walker, was again at the head of the
transportation department of the W. &
A. railway, and, asyilready remarked, re
recognizing tiie unusually great capabili
ties of our subject, made haste to secure
his services as soon as he heard of his re
turn.
Col. Walker appointed him general
freight agent of the W. <& A. railway,
and in addition, lie was made assistant
general freight agent of the Nashville &
Chattanooga railway, discharging his du
ties to the entire satisfaction of both
roads.
However ire soon found himself over
tasked, and tendered his resignation as
asst. G. F. A. of ihe N. & and devot
ed all his time and attention to the busi
ness of the W. & A. This position he
held until the resignation of the late
Gen. Wm. Mcßae as general manager,
soon after which, by a called meeting of
the directors, Mr. Anderson was unani
mously elected to fill the vacancy. It is
hardly necessary to add that the confi
dence felt in consequence of previous ar
duous, fair! ful and eminently successful
service has been fully sustained by hi*
able administration thus far, and eviden
ces the wisdom and business sagacity of
rhe directors in their prompt and unani
mous action.
Mr. An lerson has ho.- sof fr iends in
side and outside of railway circles, and
he merits th tn. Few railway officials so
generally enjoy rb<- res,.*-* t a id esteem of
his -ah- : iivaus. Mod- i. unassuming

The proclamation of Gov. Stephens,
which has appeared in these columns,
calling upon ihe people of Georgia for
specimens of the strife'- produce to be
placed on exhibition al the 'boston ex
position next fall is attracting favorable
attention. The state press will doubt
less stir up the people on the subject,
and keep public interest alive. People
who desire to make exhibits at the
great Boston exposition, will do well to
correspond with Hon John T. Hender
son, commissioner of agriculture, who
has been authorized by Gov. Stephens
to attend to the matter.— Post-Appeal.

TUK STATE LUNATIC ASYLUM.
A Brief Description of Georgia's Great
eat Charitable Institution.
Irwiaton Southerner and Appeal.]
The Georgia luiiHtle asylum!—How
terribly the sound of Its name! In the
j>a>t we have at times through the medi
um of imagination sought to portray the
entirety ol this the noblest and grainiest
institution of the state of Georgia! But
what a contrast is the real to the imagi
nary. No imagination, however vivid
can approach a description of the grand
eur and magnitude of the Georgia luna
tic asylum!
Not long since the honor was confer
red upon us by a tour through the ladies
department of this institution, and we
had for our chaperon a most genial and
interesting companion In the person of
Dr. Harris Had, third assistant physi
cian in charge. It would be impossible
foi us to narrate here the innumerable
items of interest—both large and snudl—
that attracted our attention during the
stroll. Suffice to say they were many
and various.
Ihe floors along the lengthy halls
were as clean and bright as polished sil
ver, and not a speck ot dust to be seen
any w here, while the walls on either side
were festooned with bright, fresh flow
ers, interspeised with beautiful pictures.
In passing from one apartment to an
other our pleasant attendant would ex
plain briefly such objects of interest as
we would fail to observe. Among many
other things we were admitted to the
bath room, which we found complete in
its entirety. In this room the females
can bathe, using at will cold or hot wa
ter.
On either of these long halls, or pas
sage-w ays, are small, cosy bed-rooms,
all of which seemed to be in perfect or
uei and neatness. Into one of these the
doctor led us and called our attention to
an iron lattice shutter hinged on the in
side of the window. This, he explain
ed, was to protect, or, rather, to avoid
the execution of any violence that the in
mate of the room might feel disposed to
commit.
We were also shown the late Sam
Hill’s quarters, on the walls of which is
a scenic display, executed hv that gen
tleman. during his confinement there.
YVe were both surprised and pleased at
sight of this artistic drawing and its in
terest was doubt.ly intensifieu by an alle
gorical description of its effects given us
by our guide, Dr. Hall. This historical
emblem ot injured innocense is sacredly
preserved by the management as an in
teresting feature of the institution.
Leaving here we were presented to a
list ot female patients wiro.se mental con
dition has been greatly improver*. Here
the most perfect order prevailed, bright
flowers, beautiful painting, spotless
“walls, s?e. Almost unconsciously we
were ushered into a bright lighed oarloi
which was filled with beautiful \mmg
ladies. Seated at a piano a young lady
played and sang most sweeny, while "a
short distance away stood a bagalelie ta
bio. These and like amusements are fur
nished with a view of dispelling the
mind and in a degree improve the mental
and physical condition of the patients,
in the centre of the recreation grounds
adjourning the main building is erected
a splendid dance stand, in the use of
which many of the patients take great
pleasure. We nrcalso shown several qf
the dining rooms all of which had the
appearance of perfect arrangement and
tidiness throughout. It being about sup
per hour tor the inmates, our attention
was called to the fare, being light bread
and butter, syrup and coffee. \Y r e were
informed that light suppers were tender
ed, but for breakfast and dinner the diet
changed to articles more substantial.
All in all, this, our first stroll in the
asylum was an occasion of much inter
est, and we hope in the future we may
have ttie privilege of making a more
thorough and extensive investigation.
We are perfectly satisfied with what we
nAve already seen, however, and do most
cheerfully assert that the Georgia lunatic
asylum is one of tiie best conducted in
stitutions connected with the state.
There are at present 979 inmates, 100
or 179 more than the institution can very
well accommodate, yet the herculean
task is performed without neglect or
omission of attention to the least one of
this long list of afflicted people. The
new building consisting of 500 rooms,
will soon be completed, which will give
to the management a broader Held and
better facilities for a performance of their
noble duties.
\V r e have consumed time and space in
writing this article it is true, hut we
hope and believe that we have en.ployed
the time beneficially *find acceptably,
both to our readers and ourself.
The San Francisco Journal of Commerce i
has this to say about hops: “The hop
famine has given rise to prices in this
article which have rarely been equaled.
The advance to So and 90 cents on this
market was fourfold the price of the very i
best hops and more than six-fold that of !
medium. The result has been the mak
ing of fortunes both here and in the east. |
We have heard of instances where SIOO,OOO |
have been made. Hop* will be dear
right on to next August or September,
and if the crop of this year is not an ex
tra good one they will be dear then. It
is useless to talk, as some have done, of
substitute* for hops—there is nothing in
it. The hop-raising industry is full of
money in any event, whether crops are
good or had.”
“Chatham,” writing io the Savannah
News from Atlanta says: “Here we have
a big overgrown town, no market, no
cotton exchange, no proper chamber of
commerce, no good system of stre -rs and
sewers, no department of reliable statis
tics. And yet our population is increa
sing, our school overrun with new' pub
i!s, our manufacturing interests expan
ding, new railroads coming into our eif
tv, and real estate agems <m a bourn.
Shall we ever become a city in ibc tr*i
sense ?”

We.-tern Africa, Portugal yields* pot
of her claim to the former, while England

does not disturb either country'.
The Canada Northwest Land Company
started last July with the rather impe
cunious and not too biilliant duke of
Manchester —selected, oi course, simply'
for his rank—as Chairman. The duke,
put in merely as a bait, has slipped out
of the chair leaving the chairs, with sls
paid, at $3 75 discount.
Mr. MeOfeary, the Boston City clerk
who was turned out to make room for a
democrat, on being solicited to run for
clerk of the Massachusetts house, asked
if Mr. McLaughlin, the assistand clerk,
had not done his work well. If he had he
thought lie ought to be promoted, and re
fused to run against him.

Su.ukC. Brown was solemnized in the
parlors of the Asylum, near Mifledge
ville, at 1 o'clock, p. in., Wednesday, the

the occasion should lie private, hut tiie
trustees and officers of the Arslum, by
some means got in possession of the facts,
ami it was at once determined that tiie
event should be made public and auspi
cious, and pending this resolve, it so oc
curred. The trustees and officers wit It
their families, were present, in addition
to many other distinguished ladies and
gentlemen of the State.
Previously the parlor was darkened

walked to the centre of the room anti took
position, and thus surrounded by a host
of friends, were united in holy bonds in
a very impressive manner by that distin
guished Christian gentleman. Rev. Rob
ert Bigham. Don grate at ions were ihen
in order, wlm-h lasted quite a while.
After which tiie entire party were invit

furnished by the officers of the Aysiutn,

ness of heart. Is a lady of high social
position, and by her marriage the in
mates, officers am] attendants of tiie asy
lum sustain a great loss.

cian of this county, noted tor his h >spi
tality, u{wight ness and genial social qual
ities. Aside from his profession he. is a
successful planter. He has in the past
represented tl is county in the. gciier and as
sembly, with red it to himself and to the
entire satista tion of his constitu ncy.
lie also served in the war as a tine *r of
tVe gallant 49 h Georgia, in which oosi
tion Ids dutj was conscientiously per
formed, and I e was loved and res{ -eted
bv those undi r his charge. The 1 t idal
gifts were quite numerous, and superb
in the extreme. In fact in qnalit and
quantity the collection equalled, if m*t
exceeded anything of the kind w< ever
saw. Y\ r e would be pleased to gi< e the
list here, but time and space will i ot al
low it. YY r e give the names of th i do
nors, however, which are as follow-:

THE SPEAKERSHIP.
The Allege*] Combination to Make Mr. S.
J. Itandall the Speaker.
Washington January 10.— Randall’s
friends are very hopeful. They, in fact,
that the speakership contest is already
practically settled hi his fayor.
A close friend of Randall’s who is
pretty throughmitly on the “inside,”
and who has better opportunity to know
the real taels than almost hiiv man in
Washington, omitting Mr. Randall, mid
his private secretary, in speakiug of tine
situation and prospects to-day, nod he
believed the matter to be positively'set
tled in favor of Randall.
“There is nothing (hat eau treat him
now,” he said, “you may he quite sure
of that. The combination is so thorough
and the situation such, that I don’t be
lieve it is possible for him mid his com
bination to l>e beaten.”
“Who are in the combination ?”
“Well, John G. Thompson for ser
geant-at-arms,*and Mr.Atkins, ofTent les
see, for clerk.”
“Mr. Atkins, the present member from
Tennessee ?”
“\es. Atkins has always been a firm
Randall man, and is a man respected bv'
all the house, by both parties, in fact.
He will have a great deal of strength
and will command the vote of Tennessee
and a good proportion of the southern
vote generally.’
“Ilow about Randall’s high tariff
views?” ,
“Ah, that’s the very tiling that’s going
to elect him.”
“How so? Is high tariff becoming pop
ular with (he democracy?”
“It is in certain sections. Most of the
gains made at the late election were from
high tariff states —from the riorih to the
east —and not from the south, where
tariff is unpopular. Now, coupling thi*
fact with two or three things which I
might mention, I am willing to stake my
reputation by saying that Randall can’t
be beaten.”
“And what are these other facts?”
“Well,” slowly, “Atkins will control
the Tennessee delegation and a part of
that from Georgia, Alabama and Missis
sippi; Thompson will bring in Ohio;
Randall, of course, will have Pennsyl
vania solidly, and. as Tilden is backing
Randall, he will have the who!* strength
of Nc" Y ■.* :*. * on.”
