BQVfBM R y FEMALE COLLEGE.
The visit of Mr. Charlie Cox, (son of,
our good old friend at LaGrange, Frof. |
I. F. Cox, president of the above old and i
popu'ar institution,) recalls to mind some
of th 3 most pleasant memories of the
writer within the past twenty-seven
years. It is to the Southern Female
College that beautiful LaGrange, the
home of so much culture and refinement,
is much indebted for her fame in these
respects. None have labored more zeal
mi ly for this goal of transeendant suc
cess than president Cox; and the writer
feels a pardonable pride in having aided
him to the extent of his ability as a journ
alist. The old institution was used as a
Confederate hospital during the war, and
was accidentally burned to the ground.
When the struggle was ended, l’rof. Cox,
like the most of our people, found him
self without means —without capital save
Ills personal energy and indomitable will.
Undaunted, he went to work to rebuild
tiiis temple of female education, lie said,
in ills determination, “Let there be
light!” lie began to build on anew and
beautiful site, in a small way, it is true;
Im*:, after years of incessant toil, he has
reared beautiful and commodious build
up, furnished with all that is neces
sary for the highest culture of woman
hood in the arts, the sciences and in the
literary and musical refinement of polish
ed education. Noble man! Grand insti
tution that has sent all over our beloved
sunnyland so many cultivated women to
adorn society and to become the mothers
of so many happy homes! It is proper,
and it due to state it, that Milton A Bacon,
uncle of Mrs. J. A. Baker, of Cartersville,
was the founder of the Southern Female
College.
And, yet, the old institution is not
lagging or halting in iter progress to
wards the highest attainments. Her
walls are still going up and her advant
ages are being increased by every addi
tion that modern science suggests as
ii me progresses. President Cox is not
satisfied with less. He would be restless
without the best appliances for the edu
cation of bis pupils. We can say truth
fully, and with supreme pleasure we do
say so, it is the equal of any female college
in the land and inferior to none. Were
partiality to wield this pen, we would say
the best in the south and the truth would
sustain the assertion. We know where
of we speak. These are not fulsome
words to tickle the vanity of any one.
Possessing an able faculty of thirteen
i- impotent instructors, thoroughly equip
ped with all the necessary modern appli
ances, it is fully up to the demands of
Here we would call especial attention
to the music department, perhaps the
nmst extensive in all the south. In this
beautiful and important branch of educa
• ion the old “Southern” is without a rival
anywhere in this country, at least in
the south. In this department, fiye
teachers were employed the past year,
giying instruction to 12G pupils. Very of
ten young ladies, after completing the
musical course in other colleges, go to the
Southern Female College to receive tiie
finishing strokes in the art. And now
Miss Ethel Crippen, of Cincinnati, Ohio,
has been engaged to teach vocal music in
the college. A splendid acquisition to
the corps of teachers is Miss Ilartman, of
Coburg, Germany, whom President Cox
lately secured at great expense, on the
recommendation of some of the best au
thorities in that branch of learning. She
is finely qualified to teach French, Ger
man and music.
Misses Sallie and Alice, the accom
plished daughters of President Cox, are at
ihe head <•!’ the musical department.
With years of lie most assiduous training
under the ins; iction of one of the finest
musicians evci in the south, and with
every other advantage that could be ac
quired in the highest realms of the di
vine art in New York city, they have
won for themselves a reputation not sur
passed by any musicians in the south.
They are thorough teachers in all
branches of music taught in a female
ollcge, and are the finest performers,
upon all of them, in the state. Indeed,
we may say they are masters of the art,
the piano and the violin especially.
Wo are informed Unit the boarding
hoi so department is being greatly en
larged and otherwise improved in order
to accommodate the increasing number
of boarding pupils, ft is proper p> -gute
here that Mrs. Cox, although .a member
of the faculty, presides over this depart
ment. She is a noble woman and a
mother to all the girls who fall under her
care and charge, sacredly keeping her
trust with Christian love and fidelity.
These facts the writer well knows. Her
home is the home of the girls who board
with her. ller care over thorn is that of
a good and faithful mother ever looking
after their morals and health as it her own
daughters.
We should he glad to see many of our
young ladies from this section enjoy the
unsurpassed advantages of this grand old
institution of female education. These
lines are not hired words of praise, nor
could they he bought at any price. They
are written in the interest of the highest
standard of female education, for the love
we have for the dauglih :• -• of our beloved
sunnyland; and it is truthfully an humble
tribute to the Southern Female College
and its president.

After a long suspense, the governor has
nominated Rev. G, S. Tunilin judge of
the county court of Bartow. Messrs. J.
11. Wikle and James B. Conyers were
placed before the governor, backed by
strong recommendations and petitions,
and one or the other should have been
nominated. In this matter the governor
lias made a grave mistake, as wc verily
believe. While no one can have anv se
rious objection to Rev. Mr. Tumlin, we
think either Wikle or Conyers would
have given more general satisfaction, a
fact which his excellency should have
well considered. Both of these gentle
men live near the court-house, and could
have been found lierc at most any time
to subserve the convenience of parties in
terested in transactions with the court.
But Wikle and (Conyers were both in
dependent democrats, and, like Bray, of
Atlanta, they had to give way to political
influences, as we now firmly believe. If
this be true, we regret it; if not true, we
regret our suspicions. At least, we must
say, in all candor, that it looks that way
to us, as well as to many of the citizens
of BartuW county. It will have the ef
fect of making the court very unpopular
with many of our people.
If wo understand it correctly, Rev.
Mr. Tumlin was not only not a candi
date, but declined to enter the race, as lie
was actively engaged in the ministry, to
the duties of which be bad determined to
devote bis talents. Asa gentleman and
a Christian, no man can say aught against
Mr. Tumlin. It is the disregard of the
wishes of the people to have either Wikle
or Conyers appointed, that objection is
urged.
That the court will be justly adminis
tered, no one will doubt; but, at the
same time, we think his excellency has
made a blunder. We suppose the nomi
nation was made to avoid complications.
THE OLD MILLER OF MANGE'S CREEK.
Wo publish the inimitably humorous
speech of Dr. Leland before the late ag
ricultural convention in Atlanta. It is
the spiciest reading we have ever pub
lished in Thu Free Press. It is the best
kind of- Sunday reading, outside of the
Bible and Prayer book. It is true that
the doctor is a grinder not only of grain
but of the keenest wit. lie lias a few
acres with a littie tub mill, to which he
gives bis personal attention, without rid,
and is as happy in his humble pursuit as
the lord upon his manor, because be is
contented and wants “but little here be
low,” and will not want that littie long.
He is as good a philosopher as “Bill Arp”
upon bis little farm. We are glad'that
Bartow possesses two such humble phi
losophers, both happy in the little they
possess. Both of them are great men,
the only difference being that “Bill Arp”
lias a large brood of children and the
doctor has only one chick.
Dr. Leland lias received quite a num
ber of congratulatory letters in regard to
his speech from various parts of the
state, and the old miller feels proud of
these recognitions of his talents. Like
all men, he likes to be flattered, but, un
like the most, he docs not feign modesty
in uiciii. a licit 10 uuii an cahi
bition of his candor and innate honesty.
Why should a man not feci such compli
ments with pride, and acknowledge them
like a man ? Why should he feel embar
rassed at compliments, when he knows
and feels that they are deserved ?
We want every reader of The Free
Press to read l)r. Leland’s speech and
put it away for posterity, and thus band
it down to the ages, or as long as the pa
per upon which it is printed shall not
moulder away ®r the print become too
dim and musty to be read.

Dr. Ilaygood is cavorting at the north
about the negro problem, and some of
our papers are cavorting on the same
subject. In its last analysis, the negro
problem means that the African must
work out his own destiny by industry,
honesty and perseverance. No earthly
power can do for the negro what God
Almighty lias not done. But, while we
are ready to do all we can for the negro,
we do not think it absolutely necessary
to involve the country in any sort ot
war, whether of arms or of words, in an
effort to effect what time alone can bring
about. For heaven’s sake, stop this fool
ishness of the negro problem, and let the
poor fellow go to work, and his prayers,
and may be the Lord, will fix the whole
matter about right.
The Cartersville Free Press says
there arc too many papers in Georgia.
The Free Press man can stop his when
ever lie gets ready. —Monroe Advertiser.
Smart, isn’t it? We shall not stop our
paper nor ask any one else to do so; but
“there are too many papers in Georgia”
all the same-—that is to say, of the sorry
soit. Waterman fires off his little gun
entirely too quick. In fact, lie is a “sharp
shooter”—in his own opinion; but he
would do well to hold his tire occasion
ally.
We are beginning to he opposed to a
new capitol building, unless it is yery
much inferior to the present opera house,
which is very suitable for the perform
ances of Georgia’s opera bonffe at present
playing in that celebrated caravansary of
the state’s cheap statesmanship and
worthless eloquence. Why don’t the
legislature adjourn ?
‘*o, mein Got, in Himmel!” are we
never to get that legislature of ours to
adjourn? The concern is doing nothing
of any benefit to the state. Weil, its con
tinued term may benefit the whisky
trade in Atlanta, hut not at home, where
the members live.
That article of “Tax-Payer,” in our
paper last week, was unanswerable. The
people of Georgia are paying more tribute
to Senator Brown than the subjects to
many of the crowned heads of the minor
kingdoms of Europe.
The bill for state prohibition is still un
decided. It is before the senate judiciary
c mimittee, where it ought to be smoth
ered with a pillow. It is unconstitutional,
and is, therefore, a bastardy legislation.
Prohibition.
Prohibition in Georgia will mean the greater
consumption of tobacco, opium, morphine and
medicinal bitters; aiso widespread demoraliza
tion; Prohibition did not prevent rum drinking
in Kansas and will not prevent it in Georgia.
There was an immense increase of hypocrisy in
Kansas, and so it would be in Georgia, under
similar circumstance*. —A ujutsta Chronicle.
Prohibition is good for nothing save to
serve as an outlet or safety valve to cant
ing hypocrisy, or an over-zealous desire
to accomplish something that can’t be
done. When about twelve years old the
writer thought he could split rails, and
.prevailed upon his father to have a little
maul, wedge and gluts made. The father
said, “You’re always wanting to do
i something you can’t do.” 'flic weapons
were procured, and the first rail “cuts”
; were of line splitting chestnut and fifty
rails the result. The next was a tough
and snarly red oak. It. was “halved,”
after a day’s work. In the “quartering”
there was a linger badly mashed. We
have never split any more rails. The
prohibitionists ought to learn a lesson
! from this. Their little maul, wedge and
gluts can never split open the “halves”
of the “Pop(u)lar Log” of personal
rights. We are a free people.
Even now our own representative,
Colonel Fite, is tackling the code. We
had hoped Bartow would spare the treas
ury that expense.
EX-GOVERNOR JOHNSON.
Secession the Greatest Folly Ever Com
mitted by an Enlightened People.
To The, Free Press:
The memorial in honor ot the late
Governor, Ilerselicl V. Johnson, in the
house of representatives, recalls to my
mind an expression I heard him utter on
the night of the day on which the ordi
nance of secession was passed by (he
convention which assembled at Milledge
ville in January, ISGI.
That body sat with closed doors, and
every one tvho was not a delegate was
excluded from the ball, not even news
paper reporters being admitted. Gov
ernor Johnson, A. H. Stephens, B. 11.
Hill, Dr. A. Means and, perhaps, others,
it was said, made powerful speeches in
opposition to the passage of the secession
ordinance. How sad to reflect that within
the last twelve months those four dis
tinguished, Christian gentlemen, who
loved Georgia so well, have passed away
and gone to their reward.
On the afternoon of the 11th day of
January the news came through the
key-hole that the secession ordinance
had passed. There was a large crowd of
spectators in and about the state house,
nearly all of whom were clamorous for
secession, many of therfi wearing large
cockades on their hats. When it became
known that the ordinance had passed,
there was great rejoicing. One old gen
tleman shouted, “Glory to God! I’m free
once more!” little dreaming that within
a few r months he would have to procure a
pass, like any other slave, to pass over
any railroad or other highway. Every
bell in the city was set to ringing, and
cannon were fired in honor of the event.
At night there was a general jubilee at
Hie Milled Seville Bonn, h mi
cs were made. Governor Johnson was
a delegate from Jefferson county, and
the late Chief Justice Warner was a dele
gate from Meriwether county. They oc
cupied a room together at the Milledge
villc hotel. In company with General
W. T. Wofford, who was a delegate from
Bartow (then (-’ass) county, I cabled at
the room of Governor Johnson and Judge
Warner. Neither of them went out where
the rejoicing was going on. They re
mained in thair room, and appeared to be
very sad over the prospect ahead of us.
It was while discussing the situation that
Governor Johnson gave utterance to an
expression that made such a vivid im
pression upon my mind that I can never
forget it. With all the solemnity due the
occasion, he said:
“I fear that Georgia has, to-day, com
mitted the gravest act of folly ever com
mitted by an enlightened people.”
Subsequent events doubtless confirmed
him in the opinion then expressed as to
the result of secession.
Governor Johnson certainly made one
of the best, and, I think, the very best
governor the state has had. lie possessed
| one of the clearest heads and the best
j balanced minds the state lias ever pro
| dueed. But he is gone, and the whole
J state mourns his loss. J. it. \y,
A FALSE KKS’OKT COKItECTEU.
To The Free j* rests:
I have just been informed of the circu
lation of a report in this county to the ef
fect that on last Thursday, during the
discussion ot the redistricting bill, in the
house, 1, in answer to a question, said
the 7lh and 9th congressional districts had
gone republican two or three times, and
that a member arose and told me I had
lied. As the report does me great injust
ice and is unqualifiedly false, I desire to
state all that did occur which could in
the least give rise to such a report. Dur
ing my argument on Thursday J was
asked several questions, one of which
was by Mr. Redding, of Pike county.
The question, as I understood him, was
whether or not the 7tli and 9th districts
had gone independent two or three times
; and I replied that they had. Xo one said
| 'anything further on that subject, and I
proceeded with my argument, hut the
| house adjourned before I concluded.
•Just after the adjournment, my friend.
Colonel Rankin, of Gordon county, who
was at the time in the senate looking al
ter his railroad tax hill, said to- me that
some one had told him that the question
asked by Mr. Redding was, whether or
not the i tli and !.Hli districts had gone re
publican? To w hich i replied that i did
not so understand him, and that 1 would
find out and set the matter right, i saw
Mr. Redding, and lie told me his question
was, whether or not tl e 7th and 9th dis
tricts had, two or three times, gone
against the organized democracy? The
next morning, before proceeding with
my. argument, I stated that there was
some misunderstanding about Mr. Red
ding s question; that 1 understood him
to ask whether or not the 7tli and Dili
congressional districts had, two or three
times, gone independent? and I had an
swered that they had; but that some
seemed to have understood him to ask
whether or not the districts had gone re
publican? I then stated that, admitting
such was the question, my answer was,
most emphatically, No. I further stated
that, in justice to the good people of the
7th and Dili districts, as well as to myself,
I would say that they had never gone re
publican, and, in my judgment, never
would. This is all that occurred, and
every gentleman in the house at the
time will so state.
Now, 31 r. Editor, having stated the
facts, all I ask is, if the author of the report
should have the affrontery to state in
print what lie lias stated privately and
behind my back, that be do not seek to
give force and oflect to what he may say
by the use of a nora de plume, but that he
use liis own name, so that the people
may know who and what he is. Re
spectfully, A. W. Fite.

A MALARIAL VICTj;M.
The Trying Experienca of a Promt nan t
Minister in the Tropics and at
the North.
To The Editor:
The following circumstances, drawn
from my personal experience, are import
ant and really remarkable that I have
felt called upon to make them public.
Their truth can be amply verified:
In 1875 I moved from Canton, St.
Lawrence county, N. Y., to Florida,
which state I intended to make my future
residence. I purchased a home on the
banks of the St. John river and settled
down, as 1 thought, for life. The sum
mer following the first winter I was con
scious of most peculiar sensations which
seemed to bo the accompaniment of a
change of climate. 1 felt a sinking at the
pit of the stomach accompanied by occa
sional dizziness and nausea. My head
ached. My limbs pained me and I had
an oppressive sense of weariness. I had
a thirst for acids and my appetite was
weak and uncertain. My digestion was
impaired and my food did not assimilate.
At first I imagined it was the effort of
nature to become acclimated and so I
thought little of it. But my troubles in
creased until I became restless and fever
ish and the physicians informed me I
was suffering from malarial fever. This
continued in spite of all the best physi
cians could do and I kept growing stea
dily worse. In the year 18S0 my
ciatis informed me a change of climate
was absolutely necessary—that 1 could
not survive another summer in the south.
I determined to return north, but not to
the extreme portion, and so I took up
my residence at upper Sandusky in Cen
tral Ohio. The change did not work the
desired cure and 1 again consulted physi
cians. I found they were unable to effect
a permanent cure, and when the extreme
warm weather of summer came on I
grew so much worse that I gave up all
hope. At that time I was suffering ter
ribly. How badly, only those can ap
preciate who have contracted malarial
disease in tropical regions. It seemed as
if dOTth tt-ouIU ire. a relief greater tliflll
any other blessing. But notwithstand
ing all this, 1 am happy to state that I
am to-day a perfectly well and healthy
man. How I came to recover so remark
ably can bo understood from the follow
ing card voluntarily published by me in
the Sanduskey, O. Republican, entitled :
HONOR TO WHOM HONOR IS DUE.
Editors Republican: During my recent
visit to Upper Sanduskey, so many in
quiries were made relative to what medi
cine, or course of treatment had brought
such a marked change in ray system, I
feel it to be due to the proprietors and to
the public to state that Warner’s Safe
Kidney and Liver Cure accomplished for
me what other medicines and physicians
had failed to do. The malarial poison
which had worked its way so thoroughly
through my system during my fivo years
residence iu Florida had brought me to
the verge of the grave, and the physicians
had pronounced my case incurable; but
that is not to be wondered at, as it was
undoubtedly one of the worst on record.
Hough Brothers, of your city, called my
attention to the medieine| referred to,
and induced me to try a few bottles. So
marked was the change after four week’s
trial that I continued its use, and now,
after three months, the cure is complete.
This is not written for the benefit of
of Warner’s & Cos., but for the public,
and especially for any person troubled
with malarial or bilious attacks.
Such is the statement I made, without
solicitation, after my recovery, and such
I stand by at the present moment. lam
convinced that Warner’s Safe Cure is all
it is claimed to he, and as such deserves
the great favor it has received. A reme
dy which can cure ilie severest case of
tropical malaria of five years’ standing
certainly cannot fail to cure those minor
malarial troubles which are so prevalent
and yet so serious.

That’s a common expres
sion and lias a world of
meaning. How much suf
fering is summed up in it.
The singular thing about
it is, that pain in the back
is occasioned by so many
things. May be caused by
kidney disease, liver com
plaint, consumption, cold,
rheumatism,dyspepsia,over
work, nervous debility, &c.
Whatever the cause, don’t
neglect it. Something is
wrong and needs prompt
attention. No medicine has
yet been discovered that
will so quickly and surely
cure such diseases as
Brown’s Iron Bitters, and
it does this by commencing
at the foundation, and mak
ing the blood pure and rich.

Logansport, Ind. Dec. i, 1880.
For a long time I have been a
sufferer from stomach and kidney
disease. My appetite was very poor
and the very small amount I did eat
disagreed with me. I was annoyed
very much from non-retention of
urine. I tried many remedies with
no success, until I used Brown’s
Iron Bitters. Since I used that my
stomach does not bother me any.
My appetite is simply immense. My
kidney trouble is no more, and my
general health is such, that I feel
like anew man. After the use of
Brown’s Iron Bitters for one month,
I have gained twenty pounds in
weight. O. B. Sargent.
Leading physicians and
clergymen use and recom
mend Brown’s Iron Bit
ters. It has cured others
suffering as you are, and it
will cure you.
