CARROLL FREE PRESS. CARROLLTON, GA., Full. 8, 1884 W. O. Tuggle is in Washington tugging away at a $20,000 claim of Georgia against uncle Sam, for money spent in the Creek ancl other Indian wars 70 years ago. Mr. Mat Cole of Newnan is dan gerously ill and the Herald says that serious apprehensions are felt - no-to the result. The Newnan Herald is agitating the building of a railroad from Newnan to Franklin, and says in its last issue that the people of Heard county are aroused to the importance of such a road. A correspondent of the Haralson Banner writing to that paper from Draketown says: “A mad dog on the street, Monday, created quite a stir. He ‘took in, the town and ex hibited unmistakable evidence of the malady. He was followed out of town by a number of ‘braves Who killed him. He bit no one. A correspondent of the Atlanta Constitution writing from New York says that the Thomas Seney syndicate, who now control the Memphis & Charleston railroad proposes to connect it with the Georgia Pacific at some point west of Birmingham. The grand jury of Haralson coun ty recommend, in their late pre sentments, that the ordinary do not grant any more license to retail li quor in that county, and that the proper steps be taken by which the citizens of the county can vo*<e U p_ on its abolition from Miss Alice, daughter of yj[ r . N. T. BuUoylp, ^ Dallas, flea from her IfOBij? last week and joined her lov- ei?, Mr. Charles Well*, a t Rome, and was married to him. Mr. Wells was a resident of Dallas last sum mer, and the Couple formed an at tachment f or t»ach other then, but the par e U t s 0 f the yong couple dis- co uraged a marriage and forbade the young man’s visit to their house. The West Point Enterprise in an article on the opening of the Chatta hoochee river to navaga.tion, says; At all events, on” river is to be opened as high U p a s Franklin, if no further "phe Chattahoochee nav igating C6 of this place, will soon *I.ave boats running daily to that place. It has already opened a channel as far up as Bentlej s mill. The most of Heard county’s next cotton crop will be brought down the river, at very cheap ra t,es—there is no doubt about this. Our enterprising little city lias the right to feel cheerful over her bright future, and Franklin has the same cause for rejoicing, for with the river as a cheap outlet, she will grow’ prosperous and happy. The Haralson Banner gives the following sensible advice to tlie •people of Haralson county about their pine timber: “We would say to the people who own pine land in Haralson county to save it. We know’ of no county in the state that has any better pine timber, nor as much to the size of the county. There is a day coming, and it is not far distant, when men who have their timber, will not regret heed ing to the above admonition. We have already one railroad, and it has already taken thousands of your pines 1 to Atlanta and other points; and we predict that w’ithin five years from to-day, another railroad will run through our county, which will open a new field for lumbering. Ifyouliavea fine lot of pine timber, then you will be accessible to many points w here your lumber will be in demand. It is true, that many want to clear up their land, and you are wise in doing so, but you should make use of the timber that is in your en closures and save that which is outside. We also advise farmers who have not set out orchards of apple trees to do so at once. Our county has the reputation of being the best or equal to any county in the state, for apples. If you have a good orchard, you have a source to look to, without depending on the all cotton system for money. Ap ples are alw ays a ready sale in Co lumbus and other South Georgia cities, at one and one-half to two dollars per bushel. The cost of sending them there w ill be but a mere trifle when the railroad from Rome to Columbus is completed. Now from a small orchard of two acres, a farmer can gather 150 to 200 bushels, which will readily bring 300 dollars, taking out cost of send ing them to market. Can you make enough eotton to bring that amount of money as easily? Try the apple system and see. Through the public spirit of a few citizens of Fairburn, who rais ed the necessary amount by private 1 subscription, to pay the salarv of the teacher, the school at that place has been made public to al who wish to attend. Litter from Te*as. Khitoh Fkkk iiijoss:—In accor dance with my promise,' 1 write you j this letter. I .Vs you are aware we left Car- I rollton on the morning of Novem ber 20th, 1883. Got to Newnan ; 8 a. in, where we lay over till 4 p. m, when we took an emigrant train for New Orleans, w here we chang ed cars for Houston, and then again changed for Mel lade, where we arrived 3! 4 o’clock, p. m. No vember 22. Saw many things interesting on the way. In passing through Louis iana, saw oranges from the bloom to fruit, palm fans growing, fields of ribbon cane that made us think we had never seen syrup raised be fore. It was -summer there and everything was beautiful, to be hold, and if our tickets had not beeen marked McDade, would have stopped I guess. But tlie old wo man said, go on, and if we did not like we could come back. So we moved on. Now r about this part of Texas: The climate is mild the land pro ductive and easily cultivated, the timber low and thin, the water sorry,but will do to drink, there are but few wells and but little run ning water. The most of the wai ter is tank, that is water caught by damming up the gullie-' ^nd catching the rain, as it ' uns 0 ff_ This is very good ’> ate V We are drinking sulphu- wate rfrom a well that we like oe pter than any we have dra; lk yet ^ must not expect to find a l^ r .ice where everything is just like \ve want it to be, for we will never find it, for we never will beneath the heavens. Mr. Editor you spoke of McDa- de’s Christmas frolic. There were three men lynched at McDade Christmas eve night, and three shot Christmas day, but they were a set of dare devils of the Jesse James stripe and it w r as for the good of the country,the three were lynched and in self defence the three were shot. There were some good men woun ded and one killed, but the parties that were not killed on both sides have bee n arrested and bound over in $1,500 bonds, and the rod are in jail. We have some as good citizens as Geoi gia can boast. This is the best stock country we ever saw. There are cows here that will weigh 200 pounds to the quar ter, that would not eat a shuck, and hogs that would run from corn. Pork is 5 cents per pound and slow sale at that. Now if there is anybody that wants to come to Texas, let them come and take the country as they find it, and they will be satisfied. But my advice is come and see be fore you move, if you wish to leave old Carroll. W. C. Mobley. McDade, Texas, Jan. 28th 1884. In Memory of Rav. J. F. Dobaon. Rev. J. F. Dobson was bocu June comity, the 8th., 1808 in Macon North Carolina, and married to Elizabeth Chambers ’ the 22nd of January, 1832.

Luke Smith controls a fi fa against the town of Monroe, and for five years has been trying to get the money on it. It is said that he has eleeted not less than a half doz en different tickets for municipal honors, with the understanding that his fi fa was to be paid eff, but as rumor has it the commissioners have invariably giveii him the cold shoulder when they were safefy landed into office. Last W’eek this plan was abandoned and “Kirby” ordered the sheriff levy on the cal aboose and the street lamp. This was done, and the town is minus a prison, besides being in the dark. Sheriff Ammons has locked the cal aboose and pocketed the key, and has removed the street lamps to a room in the old jail where they are secure under lock and key. Luke says that every pick, shovel and hoe will be levied on whenever the marshal attemps to have the streets worked. •A Mrs. Nellie aged lady of dead. Abercrombie, Douglasville an is Mr. W. O.

A correspondent of the Edwards- ville Standard, writing from Kemp’s creek, Cleburne county, Alabama says that there is considerable excitement over there about mad dogs. An election has been ordered in Cobb county, on the 5th day of March next, on the question of peohibiting the sale of Whiskey, in that county. IMMENSELY POPULAR!

About sixty million copies of The Sun ave gone out of our establishment during the past twelve months. If you were to paste end to eml all the. columns of all The Suns printed and sold ist year you would get a continuous strip of interresting information, common sense, wisdom, sound doctrine, and sane it long enough to reach from Printing House square to the top of Mount Cop ernicus in the moon, then back to Print ing House square, and then tliree-qiuirters of the way hack to the moon again . But The Sun is written for the inhabit ants of the earth; this same strip of in telligence would girdle the globe tweuty-seven or twenty-eight times. If every buyer of a copy of The Sun during the past year has spent only one hour over it, and if his wife or his grand father has spent another hour, this news paper in 1883 has afforded the human race thirteen thousand years of steady ending, night and day. It is only by little calculations like these that you can form any idea of the irculatiou of the most popular of Ameri- an newspapers, or of its iufluenceon the opinions and actions of American men and women.
