We have a brass band which is
composed of nice, sober young men
who are .all Good Templars and
Friends of Temperance, led by Prof.
0 hhiclus. We expect good music
from time 10 'time from those young

•he soul enlivening science of music.
The Young Men’s Christian Association-
On last Monday night the Consti
tution and By-Laws of the above As
8' .ciation were adopted. Ah other
meeting will lie held at the Presbyte
rian Church on next Monday night
at 8 o’clock, p. m., for the election of
Office)B and a Board of Directors.
We rejoice at the prospect of soon
having the benefits of this Associa
tion.
The other night as our local re
porter was strolling round, he came
upon one of our citizens who had
been in combat with John Barley
corn, and had come out second best
in ibe affair, and was lying on his
back without the ability to exercise
bis locomotive powers, when a friend
approached him and began to sing.
“Old Grimes is dead, that good old
man but our hero slept on, uncon
scious of all the powers of music,
which charms the savage soul.
In these days of conniption and
carelessness in public offices, it is re
freshing to meet with faithful and
courteous public servants. We are
certainly highly favored in having
such officials in the management of
our Post Office. The patience and
politeness with which Messrs. J. It.
and I. F. Wikle furnish postal infor
mation, and serve an often cynical
public, is worthy of all p*-aisc. May
the day soon come when all Uncle
Sam’s Post masters shall be of the
same sort.
The New Episcopal Church-
The new Episcopal Church in this
place is about ready to be occupied.
We called, in passing, the other day,
and examined its intenor, which is
somewhat unique in appeal a nee, but
convenient and comfortable. It is
neatly painted, and ornamented in
various wjiva, and taken altogether,
it is a nice lit le church, just such a
one as should be found in every com
munity where the g >spel is appre
ciated.
Rice Culture.
We publish, in another place, a
communication from Mr. J. A. Kirk
patrick, of Cherokee, on the cultiva
tion of rice. We hope our fanning
friends will give some attention to
the subject, as rice is a wholesome
article of food, and might be raised
by our people, at very little cost and
trouble. The policy is to raise our
own supply of everything, and keep
our money at home. A great deal
is spent annually for rice, which we
can easily raise ourselves.
Using Improper Langu. in the Pres
ence of Children.
We have frequently been shocked
and disgusted at having drunken
and ill-bred persons use profane and
indecent language in tiie presence of
children. Such persons often seem
to take a savage delight in such vile
utterances in the presence of those
to whom they kuow they are offen
sive, and those who ought not to hear
such things. We think the law
which protects females from such in
sults, ought to be so amended as to
protect our children, too.

Hon. T. 11. Baker, M. D., Repre
sentative from Bartow county,, will
please accept our thanks for a copy
of his circular letter to the Medical
Profession. It i* replete with sound
sense, and proves how earnestly and
zealously he has attempted to vindi
cate the honor, and dignity of the
profession, ol which he has ever beeu
an exemplary member -and a Shining
light. We endorse every word he
has written. We have known I)-.
Baker a long time, have practiced
physic in his county, and been fa
miliar with bis-conduct as a physi

lie has ever been ecrupuusly exact in
conformity to medical eltiie*s. He is
a physician, who we are proud to
recognize as a brother, a gentleman
ot unsullied honor, and a friend ini
whom we have implicitly collided.
Ttie profession owes him a debt of
g dtilune for his manly vuidicaLion

From Our Taylorsville Correspondent
Mr. Editor :—Permit me to con
gratulate you on the debut of the
Cartersvilie Sentinel— its size, se
lections, style and all—so readable,
appropriate and interesting. Full
fledged at first, it bids fair for a prof
itable and prosperous career. One
tiling is clearly illustrated, and that
is, that the right men are in the right
place. If “a good start is half tile
battle,” your victory of success is al
ready fairly won. If “to the making
of books there is no end,” why should
there lie a limit to the publishing of
papers, and keeping Sentinels on
the watch-towers of the liberties and
morals of our country ? Why should
not every city, hamlet and town have
and patronize as many pap *rs as grog
shops within their limits 'i Why may
not “two or more walk together and
agree,” battling in the same cause,
for “Virtue and Intelligence—the
Safeguards of Liberty?” With the
Standard- bearer in the center to Ex
press the will, the Sentinel on the
out-post may proclaim to the people
of Cartersviile, “the morning dawu

Congress Halls be tilled with just
such great and good men, how safe l

measures they would pursue in our

[For the Sen.inel.
Mr. Editor: In the Sentinel
of 25tli uit, you propose the name
of General W. T. WoHord for our
next Go vei nor. If you had have lan
sacked the whole State, in search of
a man to fill that position, you conld
not have selected a better man than
Gen. Wofford, as he combines all
those qualifications necessary for that
responsible position. He is honest
and capable, and has the nerve to do
his duty. lie is as true a patriot as
was ever born on Georgia soil, an 1 1
do hope the people of Georgia wdl
honor the man who has honored
them on so niaiiy fields of conflict.

Rice Culture in North Georgia.
Mr. Editor: As the planting sea
son is approaching, I send yon the
results of my experience in rice cul
ture mi Cherokee county. I knew
nothing about the cultivation of lice
and had to depend entirely upon my
own judgment and experiments to
demonstrate whether lice could be
grown profitably here or not. As I
could gain no information upon the
subject, I planted some small patches
to satisfy my own curiosity. I com
mitted two or three very grave eirors,
which my own experience proves.
Ist. I failed to get my seed in time,
and did not plant until the 20th of
Mav. 2nd. 1 planted at least five
grains to where I should have put
one, and left it in that propoi fiou—
too thick. 3rd. I made no arrange
ments to irrigate, and from the time
it began to boot until it was cut,
there was no rain, consequently some
of it did not fill—some of it was
planted on table land, where there is
very little moisture.
1 will now proceed to give you my
plan: I planted in low flat beds,
twenty-eight inches apart, and put
from twenty to forty grains in a hill,
about twelve inches apart in the drill,
to give room to chop through with a
hoe. Some of it had from forty to
sixty grains to the hill, but this Had
no rice in the beads. I let it stand
to see what it would do. If it had
been cut down and cured at the
proper time, was one of the best for
age crops I ever saw. It was from
three to four feet high, and lapped
across the rows. Stock of all kind
are very fond of it, and I think it as
good or better than the best North
ern hay. As soon as it was up suf
ficiently, I sided, or run round, it
with a narrow’ plow, and chopped
through with the hoe, and broke out
the middle with a shovel The next
working, I ran round it with a solid
eighteen inch sweep, which plowed
it out. Some of it was plowed again
with the sweep. One of my little
boys cut it down with a reap-hook as
fast as a hand could tie it, I threshed
out about sixty bushels, which I
think is twice as much as I could
have made in corn on the same land,
and I am satisfied, with my experi
ence, I can double last year’s yield on
the same land. It should be planted
as early as possible, to avoid frosts,
and not more than five or six grains
in a hill, and on damp land or where
it can be irrigated. Half a bushel of
seed will plant one acre, and three
pecks will plant one acre for lorage
crop, which should be cut when in
the dotrgb.
The ciuestiom is often asked, how
I will clean or hxHl the rough rice.
I am informedtbati can get a huller
as simple as a coffee mill and at a
moderate cost, so that every family
can hwll their own rice and have it
fresh. If that should fail, and we
make rice enough to make a mill a
necessity, it is easy to get up one on
the old plan.
I have on hand the greater part of
my crop, and can furnish seed to
those who wish to try the experiment
J. A. Kirkpatrick.
We take the liberty of publishing
the following sensible letter from an
esteemed friend in Campbell county.
We hope to hear from him r often.
Palmetto, Ga., 1
March 20, 1874. f
Messrs. Brewster & Heath ; I re
ceived jKnir paper, the CaTtersville
Sentinel, published on Wednesday,
the 181 h inst., and was well pleased
with the appearance, and contents.
I hope that you will, as proclaimed
in y< ur salutatory, advocate the right,
and oppose the wrong, politically,
morally, and in all other ways, wheth
er you shall please or offend any class
of your readers. lam heartily tired
of so much cowardice as is manifested
on the part of the editors of some of
the political journals of the day. I
fear that it is too often the case with
those who control the press, editori
ally. that they are governed more by
wdiat they Relieve to he popular than
by their honest convictions of the
right.
Enclosed you will find $2 00 to
pay my subscription to your paper
for one year. Y T ery respect in 1 ly,
John T. Lonoino.
[For the Sentinel.
Mr. Editor: —l w T as glad to see,
in last week’s Sentinel, your article
on “The Evils of Tohaceo,” and de
sire to thank you for using your in
fluence against this vile habit.
The evil is a great one. and really,
it would be a great difficulty to de
cide which w’ere the greatest sin,
Ihe use of tobacco, as it is used
amongst us, or the use of intoxi
cating drinks. Both are disgusting
and sinful.
I am an ardent admirer of refined,
cultivated ladies; but should I by
chance detect one of them using to
bacco, in any form, no mat ten- bow
much she may have been admired,
the feeling would at once change to
disgust. It would be difficult to con
ceive of any thing more disgusting
than to see a lady chewing a stick
saturated with snuff, their lips and
teeth stained with the filthy extract,
and they cannot use it without its
being knowm by others, as the indi
cations are so unmistakable.
As you say, “W hat is more inde
cent and disgusting than to behold
great quids of tobacco, and puddles
of tobacco spit over the floors of our
churches, and defiling the very altars
of God ?”
For the sake of decency, may’they
spare the house consecrated to the
worship of God!
Respectfully,
Cartersviile, March 27, 1874.

OBITUARY.
Died at <hc residence of her eon. Ilenrjr Jamee
Oeborae, Augusta, March lUh. in the 84th fm*
®* r ®‘ McAllieter Dunning, widow
of 8. C. Banning, of Savannah, and only •urvlvlng
aieter of the late K. M. Orme, of this city.
It i* the tendency of affection when death claims
tor Its own the loved ones of earth to magnify
their virtue*, and in tafatme praise to eulogise de
parted worth. No such memorial would we bring
to her who has Just passed away. The simple and
beautiful eucomium of the Saviour, “She hath done
what she-eoiild.” la one Mrs. Dunning richly de
served, and the many who knew her but to love in
the different home circles of Savannah, Milled Se
ville and Angueta will feel its singular appropriate
ness. Hers was a choice combination of qualities
fitting her to give happines to those around her.
Nobly hath she dfitiw her part. That fure git,
common sense, combined with grace# of mind and
Eirson, sanctified by a- long life devoted to her
aster’s service, made her what she was to her
many friends. Neither the smiles of a capricious
fortune nor the sterner school of adversity (both of
which had severely tested her) dMf aswlo her
swerve from the path of duty. Her p'ety, dot the
occasional ornament of the hour, was deeply, in
wrought in her very being, daily exemplifying
itseifln acts of cha. ity and love. “A buccorer ot
saints,“the sympathizing friend," the devoted
mother. In a good old age we lay her down to her
rest, feeling her “works will follow her”—“her
children arise up and call her blessed.” “Give her
the fruits of her hands, and let her own works
praise her in the gates."
