FRIDAY MORNING, FEU. 17, ISSS. I lodge county went dry last week by about 100 majority. . The estate of the late Captain Dwinell, which was appraised in Rome last week, is worth nearly $50,000. The political pot is beginning to boil, and over its troubled waters the heads of candidates are bob bing up. We notice Col. J. W.

Dr. Makenzie has made $65,000 I by the illness of the Crown Prince of Germany, yet he is unable to tell what is the matter with hispatient. Yet it is said that Dr. Makenzie examines the Prince’s throat in a very scientific manner. James G. Blaine has written a letter from Florence, Italy, to B. F. Jones, chairman of the republican national committee, declining to have his name go before the repub lican convention this summer as a candidate for president. t The wife of James Cochran, of San Antonia, Tex., gave birth to twins recently who arc exact dupli cates of the famous Siamese twins, being pined to the same vital spot by a strong ligament, which allows each child free use of its limbs. Os the 1,100 steam vessels engag ed in commerce between New York and Europe in 1887, only one car ried the American flag. This is a remarkable fact, and shows that Denmark is not the only country in which there is something wrong. ' The young people of LaGrange have parties and dances in the i churches ofjdiat town. This is a , sad state of affairs. If the young people do this slyly, they ought to j be hicoried; if the older people . know and tolerate it, it is outra- , geous. ( It is nearly certain that Floyd 1 county will have three candidates ‘ for congress—Hon. J. C. Clements, • Judge Joel Branham and ('apt. J. ■ 11. Reece. The people of Floyd in ’ tend to hold a primary at an early 1 day so that the choice of the conn- 1 ty can be known and unanimously * supported. 1 _- - t From the Canton Cherokee Ad- r vance: I will advise all editor’s t wives not to help their husbands set } type; that is, if they love to be called sweet names. Eight years a g° n, y husband called me in ac- ' cents low his angel; since I begun 1 to set tjpe he calls me simply a r devil.—The “devil” herself c ~ t It is said that lion. T. Milner, of \ Cartersville, and Col. T. R. Jones, i of Dalton, will be candidates for t judge of the Cherokee circuit be- f fore the next legislature. The pres r ent incumbent, Judge Fain, is not I a fit person for the position, an( ] p would be a good thing for the peo ple of the Cherokee circuit if either >f the gentlemen named were to < succeed him. t In England the practice of insti- ' suting suits for libel has entered the inner sanctuary of the family circle. A daughter has succeeded in making her father pay her $1250 for speaking disrespectfully of her. 1 When the number of actionable conversations that take place be tween inharmonious husbands and wives are considered there is ground to apprehend serious consequences : from an extension of this innova tion. The people of Canton, Ga., have been congratulating Mr. Brown be cause he succeeded in clearing Mr. McCoy; yea, they have rejoiced ex ceedingly because McCoy is free, and they esteem Mr. Brown more than ever because he was McCoy’s j attorney. In the meantime a mur- i dered man is unavenged, ami Walk-1 er county is short two or three thou-1 sand dollars; both chargeable to Mr. McCoy, over whose freedom the people of Canton rejoice, and whose attorney they praise there for. This year it is Bartow county’s ,ime 'to name the senator from the 42nd district. Those prominently mentioned forth- place are Dr. Fel ton, Thus. 11. Baker, J. M att liar- i ris, Jno. W. Aiken, ('. M. Joins and T. J. Lyon. ('. M. Jones has served a term in the lower house, i I’. 11. Baker was formerly senator from this district, Mr. Harris is the present solicitor of the Cherokee circuit, Mr. Akin is a prominent attorney, and every body knows Dr. Felton. Maj? Smith (Bill Arp) is al so spoken of, but while it is thought he would accept the office, he will not enter into a scramble for it. j The contest for the Republican nomination for governor of Maine: is becoming spirited. From Passa- | and' ilppus to’ MiiTcwahoc and Madawaskt? “'echo : the sounds of contest between Gov. Marble, who is an anti-Bl line man, : and Blaine’s friends. Piscataquis county is stirred to its center. Sae cUTappa Junction is filled wir.hex-l Aroostook is m n - South Norrisgopwack and lb Corner feel the effect of the great! struggle. From the waters of the Muskeetongatosbcat to the towel ing pines of Mount Katabacheeko-. chingo reverberate the sounds ofj gladiatorial contest. No wonder] there was an earthquake in Maine] last when,all these places are so agitated and excited. No Ulterior Motive. Judge Fain could have no more interest in clearing McCoy than any other man who should come before him fortrial. Knowing Judge Fain as we do, we do not hesitate to say that the criticism of the News which it repeats in its last issue, is unjust and uncalled for, and we can but ] believe that there is some incentive outside of the case which has call- ] ed forth these criticisms.—Calhoun j Times. There was no incentive for criticism of Judge Fain’s charge cept what it generated itself. Judge Fain is unfit for the position which he occupies. John L. Sullivan is a good lighter, but there are not many peo ple who think him qualified to pre- ] side over a court. Just so with] Judge Fain. He is a clever gentle-1 man and good citizen, but he is I lamentably deficient in those qual- i ities which go to make a good Judge. I He lacks stamina, - decision and that ability to weigh points of law j and testimony—so essential to one ] who occupies the position that he i does. He succeeded so well in : making apparent the want of these | qualifications, as well as others not i enumerated, in the conduct of the McCoy case that it called for a I word of protest and warning. Our I readers now know that McCoy, a : man whom the people and part ofj the jury who tried him believed to be guilty of deliberate, premedita ted murder, was cleared in a court over which Judge Fain presided. We do not know how it wjts done, but then—it was. Simmons Liver Regulator is what the name indicates a “Reg ulator” of that most important or- . gan, the Liver. Is your Liver out ' of order? Then is your whole syS- j tern deranged, the breath offensive, ■ you have headache, feel languid, I dispirited,*and nervous, no appe-1 tite, s!e?p is troubled and unre freshing. Simmons Liver Regulator restores the healthy action of the Liver. See that you get the Genu ine, prepared by J. 11. Zeilin <v < o. A Correct View. Tlw resolution adopted by the ’ guarantors of the right-of-way for 1 the Chattanooga, Rome & Colum bus railroad from Summerville, Chattooga county to Rime, in which they declare that if Rome does not aid them in securing the right, for which some land -owners in Floyd county are chatging exor bitant prices, they will carry the trade of Chattooga county to Chat tanooga, is a just disposition to make of the matter. Chattanooga gave the road SIOO,OOO and secured the right-of-way, and that a most valuable one, into the city, and it is but just and right that Rome see that no obstacles be put in the way of the road in its own county. The action of the land owners in Floyd county is greedy and unpatriotic, and stands in the way of the pro gress of t hat section.—Chattanooga Times. The above expresses the thing in I a nutshell. Chattanooga has given all the aid she could to the C. IL <t. ('.railroad; Rome has done abso lutely nothing, and is now boast-1 ing of the fact. Rome’s influence has been against the road, and as- ’ ter it became an assured fact that it would be built anyhow, she ex ■ erted her energies to prevent it from being built through Summer ville. Is this true? Yes. Some of Rome's business men guaranteed to ] Hr. Williamson the right of way j through Dirttown Valley, in this I county, and on through Floyd to, i Rome to induce him to build the road that way. They worked up a subscription to the stock of the road along that route also, but the amount we do not know. Rome was willing to pay for right of way, not only through Floyd but through this county also, if Mr. Williamson would build the road through Dirt ! town. But Mr. Williamson pre ] ferred the Summerville route, and I now Rome refuses to pay for the j right of way through its own j county. Chattooga was not gulled into guaranteeing the right of way to Mr. Williamson, as stated by the Tribune of Rome. She did it as a ' ' matter of necessity after viewing] the situation from every standpoint. ] ' it is not a hard bargain, for the I oad will be worth far more than it] will cost. She realized that the I ime had come when she must] ■■-.k out her own salvation,” and tin she did “in fear and trembling'’ i but resolutely. Now if Rome has! enough public enterprise to pay her | just proportion of the expense in-1 cident to securing the road, all] right; if she refuses, it will show she is no friend to the development of the resources of ( hattooga coun ty, and that our people will have to look elsewhere for help. And of course she will look to Chattanooga, Rome’s commercial rival, whose citizens have ever been ready to liberally aid any public enterprise that would be of mutual advantage. | And for Chattooga county to make I her requests upon Chattanooga fori laid in future development availing, I she will have to offer all the induce-1 Intents in her power, and among! Wthers, her trade. This is a matter [ of fact and admits of no other con- j elusion. The Constitution says : Over aj year ago Mr. Owens, living beyond ] West End on the East point road, j swallowed a threaned needle. Mr. Owens is the father of Mr. I Pat Owens, the genial and well | known baliff in Judge Tanner's ] court, and the baliff is responsible j so the truth of this. I The family of Mr. Owens were ] much alarmed at the accident, but this uneasiness subsided as Mr. I Owens continued in his usual good ] health, and for over a year felt no I serious inconvenience. But about a week ago the point of the needle made its way through Mr. Owens’ j side, and Dr. Kennedy extracted i the needle. A queer feature is that the thread was still in the needle. The doctor says that the case is one of the most remarkable that ] was ever brought under his notice.; An old man in Walla Walla has | become so dried up by the atmos- ] pheie that in attempting to jump' over a fence recently the wind caught him under the coat tails, : and he floated to the roof of a ’ house half a miles distant.—Ex. For fear some of our readers, ; knowing that we never publish any j thing but the truth, might believe I the above paragraph, we will say to them that it's a lie. FOR SALE—72O acres best tim ber and farm land, 1} miles above, Summerville. Address Clovis D. ] Rivers, Summerville, Ga. l-13-3m j Last week Wm. Ball shot and killed Miss Ella Everitt because she would not marry him, and then killed himself. This occurred near Stewartsville, Mo. Traveling Correspondent. I arrived at Bartow, Fla., the 7th inst., and find it is summer here, it being very warm and dry. Quite a contrast I assure you between North Georgia and Florida ;• for when I left the former ice was plen tiful; while here flowers are in bloom. I met many friends in Bartow, among others Mr. Hamp Johnson, the clerk of the court. In company with him I visited the masonic lodge here and made many acquain tances of brothers. Sunday I at tended a grand union meeting in progress here, which is being con ducted by Rev. Mr. Porter and oth ers. Bartow is a dry town. Recently I was presented with a few boxes of oranges to send home by a kind lady, who also invited me to attend her wedding, which occurs Tuesday at 3p. m.: if permitted I hope to take an active part. [Right here we prophecy our correspondent is a married man, and the lady he refers to is his wife. See if we are not right.—Em] Weddings all the go here as well as in Chattooga. The winter has been very mild here; scarcely enough frost to kill tobacco plants. We are now hav-1 ing a fine rain which will greatly | benefit gardeners. I was pleased to receive the News; continue to send it. More anon. John B. Alexander. M EXLO. Rev. T. 11. Timmons preached a I most acceptable sermon in Ami church last Sabbath, Text—xxvi chapter, 41 verse of Mathew. The j preacher drew many illustrations | from every day life which mad, his I discourse a very interesting one. The farm work of this neighbor- ] hood is making slow progress, ow ing to the continued rains. Very few farmers have begun turning land or sowing oats; but little land ] will be seeded to grass this spring; i the prospect is that the acreage of] cotton will be large, perhaps more: than for several years past. Some of the Menlo people are going into the fruit business on an extensive scale, which is certainly a move in the right direction, as much of our soil is most suitable and in many localities thecrop is almost assured, so much so that peaches have failed only a few times in the fifty years that the county has been settled. We need a railroad directly through Broomtown Valley, and the j knowing ones predict that the time is near at hand when the locomo-: tive will be seen speeding its way ' up and down in the shadow of Lookout Mountain. There is quite an excitement in this community on account of the discovery of large deposits of gyp sum in Shinbone Ridge. It crops out in various places. The school interest is at high tide in this community. Miss With erspoon has a full school—about forty scholars. Miss Etta Hender son, of Gaylesville, hrs charge of the music class. She is giving the | ] best satisfaction to all her patrons. I Quite a number of our farmers went to Rome last week. They re port the roads in a wretched condi tion. It soems that the new road law has not improved our Chattooga roads very much. Berry and Demsey Holbrooks ] started to Texas last week. They ] w’ere good citizens and good work ers, and all such will be a loss to I our community; though some rc-! turn to Georgia. Joe jjaster, son of Angus Laster, had at attack of epilepsy which has | completely unsettled his mind. He I is in a critical condition. Dr. King is waiting on him. There has been a new postofiice established three miles below here on the Shinbone road. The office is called; Chesterfield, and Mrs. Martha Agnew is postmistress. It I will be supplied by the route run ning from this place to Round : Mountain. Woodford. An exchange says a man was ar- I rested in Omaha for hogging who wore five pairs of trousers, three vests, three coats, three shirts, and three hats, two of them being in his pockets. Besides the hats, his many pockets contained apairof minstrel, “bones,” several harmonicas, a lot of Salvation Army, Grand Army of the Republic and other badges, English and Irish flags, fishho ks, photographs, darning needles, can openers, scissors, books, and sever ial carefully tied packages, which , were not examined. ONE CHURCH. Since reading several articles on Christian unity, my attention has been fixed on the Bible, which is generally accepted as the only rule of belief and conduct. The two Epistles of Peter have especially claimed some consideration. Why I am not able to say. First. In first Peter, i:22-23, I read: “Seeing ye have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the spirit unto unfeigned love of the brethren, see that ye love one another with a pure heart fervently: Being born again, not of' corruptible seed, but of incorrupt,!- i I ble, by the word of God, which liv eth and abideth forever.” In chap ter iii:B-9, the language is: “Fi nally, be ye all of one mind, having compassion one of another; love as brethren, be pitiful, be courteous: ' not rendering evil for evil, or rail ing for railing: but contrariwise blessing; knowing thatye are there unto called, that ye should inherit a blessing.” Also, in chapter iv : ■ 8-9, Peter says: “And above aII things have fervent charity among) yourselves: for charity Shall cov r the multitude of sins. Use hospi- ) tality one to another without grudg- ] ing.” Again, in chapter v:8-9; and |in 2nd Peter 1: 10, the words seem Ito be addressed to one family, I ! which seems to have been pretty, I widely dispersed for they are ex- ) I horted as follows: “Bo sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh ) about, seeking whom he may de-[ jvour: whom resist steadfast in the' I faith, knowing that the same afflie- 1 ) tions are accomplished in vour brethren that are in the world.” | Second. This one family is oil - erwise described thus: “Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritu al house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to to God by Jesus Christ. (1 Peter ii: 5). “But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a ■ peculiar people.” (1 Peter ii:9). “For ye were as sheep going astray ; ; but are now returned unto the ) Shepherd and Bishop of your souls.” ■(1 Peter ii :25). j “The house of God,” 1 Peter iv: j 17, and “the righteous,” 1 Peter iv : 18, probably refer to the same fam- , ily, house, fold, priesthood, or na- ) I tion. Third. This one family, house, nation, or fold, seems to .have had I some officers: for we read in 1 Pe- , terv:l-l: “The elders which are among you I exhort, who am also an elder, and a witness of the suf- : j ferings of Christ and also a par I taker of the glory that shall be re- I I vealed : Feed the flock of God which ; i is among you, taking the oversight i thereof, not by constraint, but will ; ingly; not for filthy lucre, but of a ) ready mind : Neither as being lords over God's heritage, but being en saraples to the flock. And when the chief Shepherd shall appear,” etc. To some minds, persons under) rules, proclaimed, administered or enforced by officers; or subjects, ! officers, and laws, suggests t he idea ) of an organization—a government, j [ Fourth. And this family, which ) seems to have a government,—a I family without government is) : monstrous —is indeed “a pecu ) liar” family. It is composed of | Baptized Believers. See 1 Peter iii: | 21, and 2nd Peter i:l. Fifth. But this “house of God,” this “holy nation,” this one fold, this one family seems not to be confined to one locality. Read 1 Peter i :1, and 2nd Peter i :1. Now, what I would like to have somebody to tell me is this: Does I this “family,” or “fold,” or “house,” ) or “nation,” describe the church of God, or does it have reference to something else, and if to something else, what something? Does the) 13th verse of the sth chapter of) Ist Peter throw any light on this subject or not? Who will answer. . Anxious Inquirer. | lii Memoriam. Knoxville, Tenn., Feb. 1. 'BB. L. P.

Physician Who Prefers Humanity to “ Professional Ethics.” Ellaville. Schley County, Ga., ? March 21st, 1887. J Swift Specific Co, Atlanta, Ga.—My Dear Sirs: For some time, I have been contemplating a letter to you. Do you know that your S. S. S. medicino has revolutionized the old school practice of medi cine. of which I am bold to say I am a faithful dis ciple. For centuries, it has been held that the only sure treatment of that most dreadful scourge of ail the ills of human flesh, contagious blood poison, was mercury. The danger of this treatment Is known to all. Aware of this danger, the profession has been for centuries seeking a harmless cure. Throughout the ages, from time to time, have arisen persons who claimed to beabli to cure it by veget able and harmless remedies. Unhappily, no per manent results of benefit were secured. Indeed, it got to lie received as a settled fact in medicine, that the disease could only be cured by mineral and dangerous treatment. Notwithstanding the fact that ever since a boy, I had known of the recipe as a famous Georgia plan tation medicine for the shtves, and that I was familiar with many instances where cures iiad been claimed, yet so wedded was I to my professional ethics that I could not harken to the innumerable witnesses about me. ■< Several years ago a negro camo to me for treat ment of a very severe sore throat. I cauterized it once, twice, three times, and without other than temporary benefit. On the fourth visit he made my office I told him, after a thorough examination, that he had contracted blood poisoning. He confessed tliat he had; but said a doctor had cured him with black pills—mercury, of course. Finding the foul and fearful disease yet in his system, I thought I would just experiment on him and see if there was any virtue in the favorable reports I had been hearing for years of Swift Specific, so I put him under treatment of nothing but S. S. S. Four large bottles completely cured him, and left his throat as beautl fully healed as I could desire. Since then I have used S. S. S. in numerous cases in my practice, and I have never failed to make a safe, perfect and permanent cure, where the pa tients have followed your directions faithfully. It is because of these remarkable cures that I have made in mv own practice with S. S. 8. that I cheerfully send you this testimony of Swift Spe cific’s sure success in all such cases. Those who know the almost inevitable, perma nently dangerous effects of mercury will welcome your discovery of S. 8. S. as a boon to humanity. The medical profession, always wary of proprietary medicines, is coming slowly, and in some cases se cretly, to the use of S. S. S. in cases of blood disorder. Os course a medicine that cures poisoning In its worst form must purify the blood of every disorder; Yours respectfully, J. N. CHENEY, M. D. Treatise on Blood and Skin Diseases mailed free.
