In the above hasty statement, 1 have en
deavored to giro all such data as from my rec
ollection may be considered reliable, and trust
that they may be satisfactory and of service to
yon. \ cry KcspecOally,
Wm. E. Host.
I shall only say to you ones ft-gn-m, citizens
or Polk county, that yon need entertain no
donbta nor fears as to the completion of the Car-
teranlle and Van Wert Boad to Cedartown.
I thank you ladies and gcdtlcmcn for your
kind attention.
The crowd then called on General Phillip*
who responded in the following remarks:
trvnin or oes. pnnxun.
-Vr. President, Ladies and Gentlemen: -
Alter so many and able speeches have been
made, I shall not detain you longer than to
make some statements with reference to onr
road.
I will aay, however, Ur. Chairman, that my
understanding in coming here was that we
came to a meeting of the citizens of Polk
county, and delegations from Panldine and
Cobb counties, to consider the project of
building the Marietta and Western Buhraad,
and I think there is no reason for the misun
derstanding between the President and my
friend Judge Underwood, as this meeting
specially called in reference to this road.
Now, Col. Crawford says his road shall be
Irailt, and I say to the citizens of Polk county,
' that if you want a rood and will co-operate
with ns in its construction, yon shall hare a
road through your country and through Cedar
Town within twelve months, and ears passing
through yonr town.

■wfoho : If General Phillips will
permit mF, I merely wish to remind the people
of Polk connty that it is but 30 miles from iron
to iron from the end of onr road to the Selma,
Borne anil Dalton road. We are now at work,
anil you may be assured that we don't intend
to Rtop work until there is a welding of that
iron. [Applause.]
(leiL I’h'iUips: It the people of Cobb county
want onr road, it depends entirely upon them
to have it. We are not able to build this road
by ourselves, and we want your co-operation
and assistance. Marietta, too, has here to-
ilclcgatcs from the City Council, and I am au
thorized in their behalf to pledgo that the city
of Marietta will subscribe stock if the citizens
along the route will subscribe stock. I am
not making war upon any road. I am in fa
vor of Col. Crawford's rood, anil Jndge Par
rott’s road, and everybody clse's road, but I
am like the man by his sweetheart;' every man
thinks he has got the beat sweetheart in the
world, or the Best wife in the world, and I
think I have got tbo best line of road for
the county of Polk, and I want it
built. The Governor has kindly prom
ised to give his sanction to the bill giving
us State aid. Will yon, citizens of Polk
county unite with ns in building this rood ?
It has been asked of me to-day, “What did
yon come here for ? What was the ohjeet of
this meeting? Who called this meeting?
Is it tinged with polities I" My polities, my
reply was, is to build this road, and I want
yon to nnile with ns.
General Phillips then spoke at length upon
the merits of tbo rood and the advantages
Cedartown would derive from its construction,
nnd in conclusion, exhorted the citizens if
they were in earnest, to liave.tbe road built, to
come forward with their means, and aid in
constructing the first ten miles, so that the
Stato aid extended to the road might be made
available.
When General Phillips had concluded the
bond gave a stirring air, admirably rendered.
When the music ceased, Major Blance rose
anil offered the following resolutions, which
were unanimously adopted: ,
Besolved, That the thanks of this meeting
rare dne, anil an hereby tendered to his Ex
cellency, Govomor Bullock, Judge McOsy,
Jndge Lcchrano, Judge Parrott, General
Phillips and Colonels Gsskill and Crawford for
.the interest manifested in this meeting.
Besolved, That we thank the Marietta Brass
Band for the excellent mi
this occasion.
Besolved, That the proceedings he pub
lished in Ihe Atlanta and Borne papers.
The resolutions having been adopted, Gov
ernor Bullock rose to respond, ami spoke as
follows:
nsHPoxsx or oov. dulloci.
Ladies and Gentlemen: I will take but a mo
ment to acknowledge the kindness and the
courtesy of tho references to myself and other
gentlemen who are here with me contained in
the resolutions just adopted; yonr. resolutions
thank me for being here, but I am thankful
that I am here; I have an especial reason for
being thankful for tho opportunity which I
have had of meeting the people of Polk connty
face to face. I have a personal interest in it.
Bear with mo for a few moments and I will
tell you why.
When it whs my misfortune to be a candi
date for the office which I now hold, I went
with Governor Brown and others to Borne, to
attend one of the meetings in the campaign.
After the meeting adjourned and as vre came
down ont of the hall, I noticed a gentleman
who looked at me very carefully and curious
ly. Ho looked at tbo whites of my eyes and
my hair, and as I passed I heard him asy “I
really believe he is white." A friend of mine
stepped back and naked him why bo had mode
tbo remark, and in explanation he stated that
n certain Democratic friend of mine whose
name I will not mention, had made a speech'
to tho peoplo of Folk connty a few days be
fore, and had told them that “this man
Bullock was n - right sharp, bright mulatto,
lately from Massachusetts. (Langhter.) There
fore yon will understand that I feel a special

Mr. DUNCAN made the point of order that
his motion to lay on the table carried the orig
inal bill with the substitute.
The SPEAKER ruled that the point was not
well taken.
The original bill was taken up and read.
Mr. PRICE said that in his section of the
State the Government owns ubout seventy
thousand dollars worth of land which can be
had at small cost if it is devoted to edneation-
al purposes. An Agricultural College at Dah-
lonega should be established, which justice
demands for a section that has received so
littlo from ‘ tho hands of the State. An
other at Milledgeville would meet the de
mands of the colored race; which colleges
should receive about as much as the State
University, in order to prevent trouble with
the University at Athens, for unless some like
provision warf made for colored colleges the
colored people would in all probability de
mand admittance in Franklin College and
thus injure or distroy the usefulness of the In
stitution, which has long been the pride of
the State: Again it demands some disposi
tion of the Capitol buildings at Milledgeville
to settle the location of the Capitol at Atlanta.
Mr. PRICE’S argument was iu favor
of a compromise on the Educational ques
tion which wonld avoid any troable be
tween the two races. He was opposed
to making any greater appropriation on this
subject than that granted by the State to tho
Athens College.
Mr. TURNER, of Bibb, advocated the bill
as a measure of justice to the colored race, re
marking that the establishment of a colored
college would do more to wash away the
charges of hostility on the part of the people
of this State to that race.
His remarks were well delivered, and did
tho subject, in which he appeared much inter
ested, full justice.
Mr. HARPER of Terrell said that he did
not propose to make war upon the colored
race, that he was in lavor of their education,
but denied the right of this Legislature to do
nate the public buildings of the State without
consulting the people.
Mr. SIMMS of Chatham claimed that the
colored people have a right to expect this ap
propriation, and said that the idea he believed
had originated with white people, and he be
lieved that the people of the State would vote
for it Ho thought that Milledgeville is the
most desirable place for it, and docs not be
lieve that the majority of the people there
would oppose the location there if
proper restrictions were thrown around
the students. He claimed the right
for colored people to enter any college
in the State but does not desire it
Mr. SHUMATE said that one of the bills
contemplated the appropriation of money
and the other a donation. One requiring the
House to go into the Committee of the whole,
and tho other requiring a two-thirds vote.
He moved to lay the whole subject on the
table. On which motion the yeas and nays

posed on the business of the House.

resolution requesting the Governor to adjourn
the House of Representatives on the 25th day of
October, leaving tho Senate to take a recess
nntil the 2l8t day of November, at which time
they will meet to confirm appointments.

PAIN KILLER
[From Kev. It. Telford, Missionary in China, now vii
iting his homo in Penn.]
Washington, Penn.
Dkab Sirs: During a residence of some ten years as
a missionary in Siam and China, I found your Vegeta
ble Pain Killer a most valuable remedy for that fear
ful scourge, tho Cholera.
In administering the medicine I found it most ef
fectual to give a tcaspoonful of Pain Killer in a gill of
hot water sweetened with sugar; then, after about fif
teen minutes begin to give about a teaspoo'nful ot the
same mixturo every few minutes until relief wa
tained. Apply hot applications to the extremities.—
Bathe the stomach with the Pain Killer, clear and rub
the limbs briskly. Of thoso who had the cholera, and
took tho medicine faithfully in tho way stated above,
eight out of ten recovered.
Truly yours,
B. TELFORD.
If attacked with tho Diarrhoea, Dysentery, Cramp,
con... a. use of the Pain Klllor.
Fun oc how, China.
Dear Sins: firing a long residence in China I have
used your invaluable Pain Killer, both in my own fam
ily and among the Chinese, and hare found it a most
excellent medicine. In the summer of 1862 and *63,
while residing in Shanghai, I found it an almost cer
tain cure for cholera, if used in time. Indeed, using
it in a great many instances, I do not remember fail
ing in a single case. For three years I have been re
siding in this place, more fifty miles from a phy
sician, and have been obliged often to fall upon my
own resources in cases of sickness. The Chinese come
to us in great numbers for medicine and advice.—
Though without medical knowledge ourselvos, the few
simple remedies we can command are so much in ad
vance even of their physicians, that we have almost
daily applications. We allow them to come, because
it brings us in contact with them, and opens a door of
usefulness. In diarrhoea, colic, vomiting, cholera,
coughs, etc., your Pain Killer has been my chief med
icine. ***•*•
Yours very truly#

Spread the Trntln—Some medical men
insist that it is undignified to advertise a remedy, how
ever valuable it maybe. Queer reasoning this. It is
like saying that ao article which the world needs
should be hid in a corner—that benefits and blessings
may be too widely diffused—that the means of pro
tecting and restoring health should be a close monop
oly, and not accessible t > all. Tho argument is bad.
It is worse than that; it is inhuman. Suppose Hos-
tetter’s Stomach Bitters—an absolute specific for dys
pepsia, biliousness and nervous debility—had never
been known beyond the repertoire of the fkcnlty,
what would have been tho consequence ? Instead of
curing and invigorating millions, tho good effects at
the preparation would have been confined to a
parative few. There is the higest authority for saying
that light should not be hid under a bushel; that what
ever is excellent should be placed ae a city on a hill,
whero all men can tako cognizance of it. It is upon
this principle that the Bitters have been advertised
and continua to be advertised.in every newspaper of
any prominence in the western hemisphere, and that
the spontaneous testimonials in its fsvor have been
translated into all written languages. Thousands, tn*
joy perfect health to-day who would be languishing an
beds of sickness if tho-newspapers had not spread the
truth with regard to this unequaled invigorant and
corrective far and wide. Suppose profit has been
reaped from this publicity. Is that any argument
against it? If the public health has been-protected;
if lives have been saved; if the feeble have been
strengthened and the sick restored, great good has
been accomplished; and who so mean as to grudge to
exertions thus directed their lair reward ?

Godfrey Flour Cooler
AND
BOLT CLEANER.
PATENTED JANUARY «, 18G6.
T HE improvement consists of a blast of air thrown
on the external surface of the Bolt by a fan placed
at tho head of tho Chest. Tho air is conveyed into
the Chest by a tin tube along and paraUcl with the
reel, and issued through a slot in tho side of the tube
on to the cloth, with sufficient force and in such quan
tity as to keep the makes open aud absorb* tho steam
generated in grinding, consequently tho cloth and tlio
internal surface of the Chest never sweats and the
flour is always dry and cool ready for packing.
It largely increases tho Bolting capacity ot the Bolt,
frees it from baps and worms, and gives an increased
and uniform yield of flour to the bushel of wheat.
The cost of applying tho improvement is bnt small,
Requires but littlo power which is obtained from *

she silently steals a pickle, cate chalk, or a slate pencil;
no appetite for food; she turns with a dull eye and
seeks solitude; her eye no longer sparkles; her merry
laugh is no longer heard ringing through the air; she
mopos about with bloodless lips and gums, with head-
ache, palpitation, constipation, swimming of the head,
cold feet and hands, melancholy; she has <a coated
tongue, offensive breath, and a host of other evils too
numerous to mention.
