DtrTCH TOWN.
As we have! seen nothing in The
Weekly frorat this neighborhood for
quite a while, jund, thinking perhaps a
few lines from tVie pen of one of your
niost “talented n\ riters” would be high
ly appreciated, w| e have, therefore, “set
about’’ and “mu! -tered up” our old,
rusty pen, ny*t y ink-horn and a dusty
sheet of la/h c.- t p for the express pur
pose oLs u jl u g your readers for a
' few ar^ least—with something
“spicy, rare , Hch and racy.” In order
to de this, there is perhaps nothing
that we kn ow of that would interest
them more , than to give them a brief
sketch of Our Travels. Although we
have nevi )r viaited St. Peter’s Lathe
dral, Th< , liuins of Pompeii, nor The
Pyramid B j n Egypt, and there may lie
other pi 4ceg 0 f uote that we have not
seen, bu twe certainly liave visitefl
Aorth ( Georgia recently.
On t he 22nd ult. at 6:30 o’clock a.
“•» we boarded the train at Lovejoy en
route t 0 the mountains of North Geor-
£ la - IVe arrived in Atlanta in due
* ,me ’ and took passage on the W. &
A-ro ad for Marietta. All went mer
ry as a marriage bell, with the excep
tion ( jf one old toper with a red nose,
who had evidently “took on” too much
benzine, and seemed to have taken
quit* j a fancy to all the “little folks”
011 * he train, much to the annoyance of
“*®i r mothers. At last, however, the
C° n ductor came to his assistance, and
car< -fully conducted him down the steps
f° f i convenient place on the ground.
Th en —as HU) Arp says—“all was
Cft l m and sereue.” When we arrived
at Marietta we were informed by the
nductor that we had nearly three
ho urs to stay before the next train
wt mid “pull out’’ for Ellijay. So—by
ut iug the phrase in common parlance
-we proceeded uptake in the town.”
(arietta is a beautiful city, with a pop
ulation of about 20,000. The Kene
s aw mountains are in close proxitnity )
a ,ud can bo seen from the city. It pre
f ents quite au attractive appearance.
The scenery is grand indeed!
“All aboard for Ellijay,” yelled the
Conductor, and soon we were speeding
our way on the Marietta and North
Georgia toward Ellijay. The most at
tractive scene that we witnessed while
on this road was near Canton.—Of
course you must not think we mean
Canton, China, but Canton, Georgia. —
The scene is indescribable. It was a
streak of fire extending along the side
of the mountain for two or three miles
in almost a perfect paralel line, or at
least it seemed so to us.
We met several old acquaintances
on the ship—train we mean —among
whom were Dr. Yankersley, of Kllijay,
a Mr. Beaty, of the same place, who
was on his return from North Western
Texas. He says Texas is a good coun
try, but North Georgia is good
enough for him. We also met Mr.
G. W Tankerslev, the clever and ac
commodatiug baggage-master on this
train. We met many others also, that
we knew, but we can’t consume time
in telling you all we knew, for of
course we know almost everybody, and
everybody knows us, but what of that ?
Pshaw that’s nothing!
At 9p. m. the silence was broken
by the porter’s musical yell—“ Kllijay”
So we took up our grip sack, and
wended our way to the home of our
parents, to speud the remainder of the
uighL After satisfying the inner man
ax the elegaut table of our pareuts and
a nights rest, we walked out to take a
view of the surroundings. We met
many good friends here, among whom
were Jasper Poindexter, Dr. J. R.
Johnson, G. W. Gates and a host of
others.
Ellijay is a beautiful little city, sit
uated near the confluence of the Kllijay
and Cartecay rivers. It is quite a bus
iness place. Several new enterprises
are located there. Among them are
the Evan’s Land and Lumber Compa
ny’s mills located near the Cartecay
river. There is also a large spoke fac
tory erected and in operation, and sev
eral other enterprises are spoken of to
gether, with a large tannery consisting
of a capital of SGO.OOO. Those hills
and mountains uear Ellijay are said by
expert Mineralogists, to contain iuex
haustable quantities of mineral of va
rious kinds; and when its mineral re
sources are fully developed it is des
tined to become the “Birmingham” of
Georgia.
During our sojourn we passed by
the old homestead—the place of our
birth. The sun was just setting wheu
we passed, and every thing was so qui
et and still, that the old familiar song
“Oh, my old cottage home!” reverted
to our memory at once, aud for awhile
we felt lonely and sad, but this did not
last long, for we spent the night with
a kind-hearted uncle who always looks
upon the bright tide of life and U al
ways cheerful and Content.
We had the jleasureof spending a
day with an aged relative—Elisha De-
Boyd—while in North Georgia. Un
cle ’Lisha, as he is familiarly called, is
very intelligent, and possesses a mem
ory that can’t be excelled by any one
of his age. lie has, by industry, econ
omy and strict attention to business,
amassed a snug little fortune, ft was
very interesting to us to hear him re
late incidents that occurred in his “boy
hood days.” When and how they
used to market their tobacco, and many
other incidents too numerous to men
tion. There were no railroads in those
days, and a good wagon cost about
S3OO dollars. “I can remember,” said
he, “the first mule I ever saw. A rich
man, living in the city, owned a farm
near by, and came after his rent corn,
lie drove a mule, and the neighbors for
several miles around came to see it.
I imagined before I saw it,” said he,
“that it was something like a corn
sheller. One old lady said it was the
‘cutest-long-yeared-critter she ever
seed.’ Said it looked ‘very like a boss,
only more so.’ ”
Uncle Elisha is now left a widower.
Aunt Mary, his wife, has crossed over
the darksome river. He has erected a
beautiful brick house over her remains,
which cost, perhaps, six or seven hun
dred dollars. Inside of this house is a
couch, a pillow, and chair ; also a Bible
aDd seme newspapers. This eccentric
though good old man, spends many
hours by the side of his wife’s grave.
There is a tombstone erected to her
memory, with her epitaph engraved
there on, and, side by side is another
toombstone erected just like the first,
containing his epitaph; though he is
still living and bids fair to live many
years yet.
Now, Mr. Editor, pardon us for mo
nopolizing so much space, and com«
a whole day with us, and we’ll treat —
treat you, not on “mountain dew,” but
“mountain chestnuts,” and the old
“’oman” will tly around and kill a
chicken and spread the new table cloth
and the napkins, and—and—. Say,
will you come? Don Juan.

To that lone place where friends and foes
Together sleep among the dead,
Where loved ones find a sweet repose,
We wend our way with silent tread.
With tear dimmed eyes, our grief remains ;
In oensive mood we linger near
The new-made grave that now contains
The lovely form ofT’annie—dear.
At that new grave—that sacred tomb —
lit spring-time’s beauty -liall appear
Sweet, fiagiant flowers, In vernal bloom.
As emblems of our love for her.
Her hand arrangnd for festive joy
Our humble home ; her voice did cheer ;
Sweet, harmless mirth she did ctnpl >y
To banish every gathering tear.
Her songs to us were sweet relief;
Like Angel's music, day by dav.
They often soothed our rising grief
And cuused our gloom to pass away.
Farewell ! dear Fannie—sweetly rest
Thy lovely form Iront toil and pain,
’Till we in Heaven, among (he blessed,
Shall see thy lovely self again.

Catarrh, Not Local, But Conatllutlon
al.
I)r. Dio Lewis, the eminent Boston
physician, in a magazine article says :
‘ A radical error underlies nearly all
medical treatment of catarrh. It ia not
a disease of the man’s nose ; it is a dis
ease of the mau. showing itself in the
nose—a Local exhibition of a Consti
tutional trouble.” Therefore, he ar
gues, the use of snuff and other local
applications is wrong, and while they
seen to give temporary relief, they
really do more harm than good. Oth
er leading authorities agree with Dr.
Lewis, lienee, the only proper meth
od of cure for catarrlt is by taking a
constitutional remedy like Hood’s Sar
saparilla, which, reaching every part of
the body through the blood, does elimi
nate all impurities and makes the whole
man healthier. It removes the cause
of the trouble and restores the diseased
membrane to proper condition. That
this is the practical result is proven by
thousands of people who have been
cured of catarrh by taking Hood’s Sar
saparilla.
