rpade County Gazette. MIKING FAWN, GEORGIA. rSI IKS WAV, April 17, 1W79 j\cws|mi)tT Patronage. A cotemporary prepares the following , mTor, in which his patrons can see hemsc’.Ves rcflectel: Many long and wearrv years of expe . icncc in the publishing business have ' >rced the conviction upon us that news *taper patronage is a word of many defi- L 1 itions, and that a great majority of man ind are either ignorant of the correct efinition or are dishonest, in a strict liblical sense of the word. Newspaper patronage is composed of as many colors | s the rainbow, and is as changeable as chameleon. One man comes in and subscribes for le paper pays for it in advance, and oos home and reads it with proud sat faction. lie hands in his advertisement -iks the price pays for it, and goes to his ace of business and reaps the advanta ' thereof. Another man says, “You may put my une on your books,” and goes off with it saying a wonEabout pay. Time goes i, and you want money, and you ask m to pay what is honestly due you. He .os into a passion, perhaps pays, per ips not and orders his paper stopped, his is called newspaper patronage. Another man has been a subscriber a ! ng time but has never paid a cent, and last becomes tired of you and wants a nnge. He thinks he wants a citv paper, c tells the Postmaster he don’t want it id you’ll get a paper marked, “re sed.” But does he call and pay? Oh, ! lie wants Ins money to pay for his y paper. He will pay you after awhile says. But he never does unless you sue r * m. And this, too, is called newspaper t itronage. man brings in a fifty-cent ad- Irtisement and wants a two--dollar Ho le given it, and if you refuse ho goes off id. And this is called newspaper pat pge. Another man lives near you—he does. t take the paper—he don’t like tlie itor—the paper is too small for him — t lie goes regular to his neighbor’s and ids it and finds fault with it,and quar s with the opinions of the editor. Oc donallv he sec-s an article he likes, and * gs or gives half a dime for the number, is calle l newspaper \ atron pwother man takes two or three city Ppens and cannot afford to take a home I per, but lie likes it and comes into the ice and begs one whenever he is in vn. This also is called newspaper pat lage. Another man likes the paper, he takes iopy for himself and family, and pays it and does all he can to get new ascriptions—he never grumbles, hut vays has a cheerful word for the editor. iis is newspaper patronage, Another man has a patent and wants Ji to give it a two dollar notice every lek: “It will be of interest to your ders,” he says, but although knowing will benefit him most of all, he does : offer to pay for it. This is called tv-spa per pationage. Vnother man has taken the paper sev -1 years, but has not paid for it, and - nes in with a four dollar adver lkinent, and asks you to insert it for thing: because he is an old patron of irs. This is called newspaper patron i Another man—“a young man about An,” no use of his taking a paper, he own all that is going on. By-and-by be s married and hands in tho notice h “just send me a dozen copies.” He s them, and when you mention pay, Its surprised —‘‘you surely do not irge for such things!” And this is led newspaper patronage. Another man (bless you, it does us I )( l to see such men) comes in and says, lie year for which 1 paid is about to lire; 1 waut to pay for another.” He >s so and retires. This is newspaper rouage. ,W isii' tjjncwapni'cr patronage a n -ls thing? And in that great day when Gentlemen in Black gets his dues Ae surely will, how many of the pnt ks enumerated above will mil to Id share? Now it will be seen that ’while ft certain kinds of patronage are the very life and existence of a newspaper, there are other kinds of patronage that are more destructive than the “deadly night shade.*’ “Header* where do you stand.” Young Men. Anybody who wishes to may become a gentleman. He will not form a habit of telling smutty or vulgar stories; He will always be tidy in dress. He will be careful not to offend persons; will keep his face clean. He Will never be loud mouthed or overbearing to his inferiors. This trait of chaiactcr always marks the snub egotists. He will never lilt his voice in a small room, when talking to men, as though he were in a field driving oxen. He will never speak so as to wound or pain the hearts of the person who is under him. He will never speak of his superior family connections or give those he is with to understand he is cf more consequence than they. He will never pry into the famely affairs of any other person, nor meddle hnnsilf with the af fairs another person should attend to. He will never try to bully or beat Ivis way nor assume a superiority that is entirely lost tlie moment it is boaste l of. The gentleman always lias friends, even un der adverse circumstances, because lie deserves them. The success of tlie true gentleman is always lasting. TSaougEits oh the jßetiirn ol‘ Spring Emotions of gratitude and praise fill our minus this morning as we look out upon nature’s beauties and grandeurs. Old Triton is in bis splendor, God lias granted a most propitious season, the birds sing their merry songs, vegeta tion is springing up, the earth is donning her robe of green, and activity is noticea ble in every department of nature. There is about the groves of spring time a sweet power that charms the human soul the fields present a scene of admirations, the banks of the streaigs v.\& lovely, and all nature pleases, We feel disposed to listen at the songs of the rural muses as they wake up the silent retreats of coun try life. Now is no time to reheaise the battles of great Caesar, nor to recite the Olympic rewards; but to at end to the real aetivitiod of life. The year has thus far been favorable to labor. Energy and perseveiance will secure success to all who toil. God has brought the return of the most lovely part of the whole year. Let us step forth detei mined to do our duty. From Morjasßvillc. Mu. Editor —As you have had peach cro]) and hahv reports from Possum Trot, Owl Hollow’, Hog Jaw and the Devil’s Pocket, and as we are opposed to taxation without representation, 1 thought w’c had a right to report. As to the pencil crop there is a few left in Sligo, and with reference to the babies wo keep constantly on hand a full supply of a superior quality. Our Sunday school is in a prosperous condition; we take ten magazines and get quite a number of lesson papers,some thing which no Sabbath school can do well without. Onr pupils as a rule arc studious and our teachers communica tive—especially Missr\ 1) ck *y and Jones. v*d) 4 r Every one who is patronizin ; the day school seems to he well pleas'd with Prof. Dickey as an educator. Tuition low and hoard cheap. The ore interest is rather on the wane. Messrs. McCollum and Fowler have about finished up their contracts,leaving Morgan the only surviving contractor in this vicinity. The tan hark interest is getting rath er lively. The woodman’s axe is heard from dawn Dll dark, and the trees fall ing make quite a racket, but not so much as the blasting of ore. Wiien the bark business is over we expect to dig goober peas or do something else; we never exp *ct to get out of employment. As for the idle cry of “hard times” vve expect others to harp on, but as for us and ours we expect f o wjrk and grow fat. The farmers here area little behind with their crops,there being same upland nat yet planted in corn. Wheat and oats are looking w’cll ex cept on poor clav spots where they al most froze out during the winter, but ® there are only a few such places in our noi ;hl)orhood, no one is materially in jured. When you was here making up a list of subscribers,yon made many promises, most of them to the sterner mix; (Mrs D. must nit infer^anything from this) among them was to preach some for us, a prom® broken, and a preachers’ meeting oiirrand soon; we poet to be there and accotmt for the deeds done by the you send an appointment foJHkis piaco at once. Since my arrival at Chattanooga, I have learned that a widow lady by the name of Morgan committed suicide early last Saturday morning by hanging her self; Various causes are assigned for the act, but none substantiated by any weight of evivence so far as yet learned. Chattanooga is now overlooked by a court-house of magnificent appearance and proportions, and the people of that section have now a $40,000 “justice mill,” and from the number of lawyers" signs to be seen along Market street, it is reasonable to suppose that the “toll” to be paid will he no small item. One good and much needed improve ment made in the city since I last visited it, is the daily round of the street sprink ler, and now the high-toned citizens of Dade can gaze into shop windows in open-mouth wonder without having dust thrown on their lungs. Mr. Wilson, the glass store man, is putting up a glass building in which no other material than iron and glass will be used. The plans give promise of an imposing structure. It is hardly neces sary to say that Mr. W. will cease to throw stones when he moves into his new structure. Yours, C. SuCHERNOTCIITE. ! Morganville, Ga., April 15, 1879 From Trenton. Mr. Editor —As I have just returned from that famous state, Alabama, allow me tlie pleasure of informing the readers of the Gazette that I had the benefit of the sun without the aid of troughs. The farmers of DeKalb county are in fine spirits—wheat and oats never better at this season of the year —and are looking forward to the time when that grand old state of ours shall no longer exist in a state of delirium, but shall come from under that embarrassing condition for* which the Republicans have been pleased to make it. But she is fast approaching the summit and will soon occupy the proud position which she once occupied. | As long as she possesses such glorious j <X ntlemen as Gen. duo. T. Morgan and I Go v S. Houston, how can sho do other wise ? Pi of. returned from Chattanooga on the loutanst. He says Mrs. McTeer and baby are improving, j Our kindest wishes for Prof, and family; may they live long and prosper. The dead heats of this place, inclin ing all those who are not of our school, have bean trying to oiyTuize a debating society under the of hard shells, but, as it seems, tlieir shells are too hard and the society has bursJkl.

The farmers are going ahead planting corn, yet the wind from the north frigid zone tell us that winter has not yet gone. Methinks there is no time lost to wait until the 15 or 120th inst. for corn plant ing. Our constable in beat No. 14 is a very ferocious gentleman; lie went with a full quoto. of guards to arrest a lone woman which he did. He says that man lie fears mot fo approach him, but woman, lie says, always gives him a kind o’ pal pitation of the heart. You ought to hear them all guess who David is; some say 11. M. Blevins, some C. W. Oyler, and a great many have the audacity to say that it is Frank Gib son, yet 1 must say that David is yet in the dark to them. Jim Dean says if he did plant corn in mid-winter who knows hut what it will pay? He also says that as Deer Head is off in one corner he might bring’some light to the minds of his neighbors, as they are behind the times any way.

The Mysteries of Carboline as a Restor.v tive. The composition of the human hair lias never been accurately or satisfactorily de termined. Chemical analysis has revealed its main constituents, but, as it varies es sentially in different persons, and in the same person at different ages, it is impossi ble to determine with any accuracy exactly what quality is lacking where a person be comes prematurely gray, or what, prepara tion is best suited to restore the natural growth and vigor where the hair falls out so as to produce baldness. Hence it is that all artificial preparations have failed, in some essentials at least., to meet the re quirements of a perfect hair restorative. There are a number of excellent dressings and washings, and scores of preparations that are either indifferent or positively in jurious, and the great multiplicity of these furnishes an argument in support of the fact that there is something lacking in them all. The new article, Carboline, con tains ali the qualities essential to a perfect bair restorative, both as regards natural color and a full, luxuriant growth- The basis of Carboline is petroleum, and in that wonderful article, produced in Na ture’s own laboratory, are properties which the chemist’s art has not yet been able and which act like magic upon follicles, and tiie various ele -I.lle hair is composed.
