Old methods are being sup planted by new, and we are adding constantly to our stores of knowledge in all directions. Medical Science bas made rapid strides in the past quarter of a century. Discoveries have been made of great value to mankind, and new remedies are ta king the places of those which have been tried and found wanting. In many sections of the country the great want has been a medicine, harmless in its effects on the system, yet active and powerful as an anti dote to malarial or miasmatic poison. Every sufferer, therefore, from Fever and Ague , Bilious or lutermit'ent Fever , or any form of malarial dis ease, will hail with delight the an nouncement of anew remedy for those distressing complaints called Agucine, which is warranted to cure , and contains no quinine, calo mel or other hurtful drug. It is said the most delicate person can take it with entire safety. Many of our prominent dealers have accepted agencies for the sale of Agueine. and the proprietors have authorized them to refund the money in every case of failure to cure, where the medicine is taken according to direc tions. Any of our readers having the misfortune to be afflicted with the “Chills” can try this remedy at no risk , as they are certain to get their money back if not cured. Written for the Record. Tight Times. Everybody is complaining of hard times. Well, it is true, we are hav ing hard times, but let’s see if we cannot better them. Well, one says, how are we going to do it? Some say the Legislature would adopt some measure that would relieve the people, but they could not do this, because it was not within their pow er to do so. Yes, but says some one, they did adopt a relief for us, for they reinacted ths usury law,and we are going to borrow money cheap and pay up all of our debts, and hutke everything easy. Bat they are badly mistakened; in the first place, Ihe common farming class of people, who need money worst, are not going to be able to get any money, as all for this reason, the man who has money to loan, will, as we have heard them say they will do, loan their money to some railroad or banking company. They say this will, if I have to loan my money at a low per cent., I will let someone have it that is able to pay it back to me when I want it. If a man is worth $1,000,000, he can borrow money any time at 7 per cent.; if he is worth SSOO, he cannot get it at all now. But before the usury law was in force, the man who had a little more money than he needed, he would say to the poor man, if you will give me more for my money than I can get from the rich man, I will take the chances of collecting it, and let you have some. No farm ers, no legislation can effect this thing any in the least, but I will tell you what will remedy it, and think the remedy, or a part of it, will be applied this year; and that is to buy nothing unless you can pay for it; use economy and industry, and you will bring about great relief. Well, but says someone, we cannot do without some things. But this is all a mistake, for it has not been but about ten years since we done with out credit and money both, and ntm that we cannot do without credit. I knoff it is hard to do without these things, but we can do it. If thsre had never been no lien law and guano selling, our country would to-day h§ve been in a prosperous condition. But now, if the fane’s want cheap money, there is a way to bring it about, and that for the people to call a convention for the state and wipe cut homestead and all exemption laws, and make the shirt on a man’s back subject to his debts, then they will have cheap money, and not un til that is done, will it be so. And we are surprised at some of our papers in the country that are brow-beating the Legislature for not reinacting the lien law, when it is an unconsti tutional measure. ■ ♦ ♦ Written for the Rocokb. Our Country. We flatter ourselves of the fact that our country is in as good condi tion, if not better, than any of our sister countries. Paulding is the place to locate. Why? Because w have as good lands in Paulding as you will find a nest anywhere. We are blessed with as good freestone water as the world affords, as healthy a climate, as moral a set of citizens as any country; we are out of debt; the county does not owe anything; she even paid the expense of her last court, cash up; she has no represent, ative in the chain-gang; no inmates of her jail; our farmers have been mighty about their debts ever since the war, but the shortness of crops last year threw some of them behind a little, but we think if they can make good crops this year, they will come out all right next fall. Their will is good, and if they are not providentially hendcred, they will do it. It is true, we have not the ad vantages of railroads that some oth ers have, but the time is not far dis tant when we will have a road runn ing through our county. The rich mineral beds of our county are suffi cient to authorize this without any thing else. We have gold, copper and iron plenty in our county, if we only had the means of developing them. And we have no doubt, that the day is not far distant, when they will be satisfactorily developed and large fortunes realized from them. The following items are from the Rockmart News: W e regret to learn that Mr. Mc bee, of Van Wert, lost a very fine horse on last Snnday. It was sup posed to be lung fever. Mr. G. IF. Peacock, of Taylorsville, lost a fine mule last Sunday night, from colic. He went to Carters ville Monday and replaced it. WE regret to learn that our worthy townsman, Colonel Seaborn Jones met with a serious accident on last Saturday by getting one of his feet sprained so badly that he cannot gel about without, the use of crutches. We did not le*ni how the accident occurred. Personal. Cr' :■ '• We had a calf on last Tuesday evening from our worthy Superin tendent, Mr. Peacock, of the Chero kee Railroad, and Mr. Hall, the celebrated saw mill man. Mr. Pea cock visited our town for the pur pose of making arrangements for the continuance of the railroad out a few miles into the pine belt of tern ber, and has made arrangements, we understand, for the work to be done immediately. Mr. Peacock jr a skillful financier and a good railroad man. Mr. Hall, we learn, is an expe rienced saw mill man, and is going to build an extensive mill out a mile or two from town, and on the route selected by the railroad, thereby giving the business ample and con venient transportation. We hope that success may attend them' in their enterprises. Civil Rights. The South to-day is passing through the most trying ordeal, to which she has ever been subjected. The indignities that have been heap ed upon her, caped with this last crowning act of jnfamy, has sank deep into her soul, and' well nigh burst the barriers of her forbearance. The insults put upon Poland, whom the Czar, with one stroke of his pen blotted from the map of na tions, are small,' when compared to this deep, damning infamy, which has flowed ujxm the South from this corrupt body of the Republican party. It behooves us as a brave and high-toned people, to meet the issue calmly but firmly, and try, by all peaceable means in our power, to convince the negro of the utter im possibility of bis ever obtaining those rights, which God intended he never should possess. Let us not act rashly or indiscreetly, bat if they will force us before the last tribunal, let them accept its final decision. ANOTHER FIRE! A C'Oaf FI. AG RATION II ATLANTA. Almost a Square Con sumed. LOSSES VERY HEAVY. Loss Between $125,000 and $150,- 000- INSURANCE LlGHT [Reported for The Record.] Ateanta, March 17, 1875. Last night a Ore started in Jack’s bakery establishment, which has re sulted in the most serious conflagra tion that we have had in our city for years. The file was discovered by a com positor in the Constitution office, who saw the blaze reflected upon the windows of the building occupied by Mr. G. W. Jack. The fire had gained such headway before it was discovered, that it was almost impossible to get control of it. The fire department worked like beavers. After two hours of hard work, our gallant firemen had the flames safely under control. Much valuable properly has been lost, far more than can be estimated at the present writing. The streets were thronged with men and women, and in some places almost blockaded. The police were out in full force, and rendered inestimable service. The building occupied by G. W. Jack belonged to Mr. Chisolm, and was a total loss. The building occupied by Faul Jones belonged to M. C. Blanchard- Mr. Blanchard’s insurance office was up stairs. The bailding that George Sharpe, Jr., an 4 the O. K. clothing house oc cupied, belonged to E. E. Rawson. Smith & Motes, photographers, oc cupied the up stairs. The loss of the buildings is some SIOO,OOO or $125,000. G. W. Jack’s loss is about $50,- 000; insurance SIO,OOO. Paul Jones had a full stock. His loss by fire and stealage is heavy, and not fully ascertained. George Sharpe had some $50,000 of stock; partially insured. He saved nearly all his jewelry and diamonds. His machinery for mannfactnring jewelry, up stairs, is a total loss, and not covered by in surance. The O. K. clothing store had a small insurance. Amount of damage not known. Smith & Motes loss between $5,- 000 and $6,000; insurance $2,500. Mr. Von Stavorin, portrait paint er, lost all his effects; no insurance. There were several accidents. Two firemen of the mechanic's company narrowly escaped cremation by the falling in of a pair of stairs. There was a heavy amount of stealage carried on. One aged gentleman hearing that it was near his store, domed a neck tie and rushed to the scene. Qy. A barrel factory, to meet the de mands of the turpentine business, is wanted in Brunswick.. THE LATEST * Telegraph News. CONDENSED FOiTtHEWESM. A CfriLRIGHTS CASE. Wilmington, March 9, 1875. The first case here under the civil rights bill caffii* np before United States Commissioner £. H. Mc- Guigg, to-day. A negro named Francis Holmes bad W. H. Gerden, a saloon keeper, arrested for refus ing to sell him a drink. The Com missioner dismissed the case on the ground that the civil rights bill did not apply to bar rooms. ENGLAND PREPARING FOR WAR. Calcutta, March 9, via London. The Englishman, a newspaper, says it is rumored that orders have been received by the Indian govern ment from England to hold all the regiments in India in immediate readiness for active service. The Englishman supposes such orders to point to the possibility of war on a large scale, not in India bat In Eu rope. NEW HAMPSHIRE. Concord, March 12, 1875. The returns are incomplete. The republicans claim 17 majority in the house. The democrats have a ma jority in the council, which will pre vent removals from office. The democrats carry the Ist and 2d dis tricts, republicans carry the 3d. The democrats gain one congressman. The following we clip from the Atlanta News, which clearly shows that the charges against Treasurer Jones were false and uncalled for : Tlic Afldrexs of Treasurer Jones. We publish this morning the text of Treasurer Jones’ address to the people of Georgia. It is a calmly written but forcible document, and cannot fail to make a favorable im pression everywhere. The Treasur er shows very clearly that the Fi nance Committee not only failed to make the thorough investigation due him, but that they even refused to allow him credits in cases where the vouchers were indorsed by the Gov ernor himself. He called attention to the fact that in their report they stated that be had paid warrants signed by Bullock ; whereas he had never paid a single one signed by that individual. The warrants allu ded to were signed by Gov. Conley, and as they were correct and proper, Gov. Smith ordered them paid. Neither the fact that thej- were not signed by Bullock, nor the other fact that they were indorsed by oar present Governor, were stated by the committee in their second report. True, they granted the credits claim ed, because they could not well avoid doing this ; but they were not wil ling to do Treasurer Jones justice. In the light of this address it looks very much as if the purpose was from l the beginning to make a sensation 1 even at the sacrifice of justice- If I the committee had discovered some ! thing more than a mare’s nest, they ! would have proceeded to work calm | ly, slowly and deliberately, before making any report at all; but they rushed hap-hazard to conclusions, and wound up by putting through resolutions which either do the Treasurer a grievous wrong or con vict the Legislature of adjourning and leaving the finances of the State in the hands of a man not competent to manage them As long as there was a possibility of the committee reporting a deficit we abstained from commeht. or from expressing any opinion other than that of faith in the ’treasurer’s in tegrity. Kow, however, that the Legislature has adjourned, after pas sing a wretched resolution of censure, without being able to tell what it has censured the Treasurer for, we are unable to discover ib what part ol the report of the committee is there any charge of wroug doing. We be lieve that Captain Jones is accused of having kept his accounts careless-, ly, but that certainly was not offense enough for the scandal which has arisen and for the effort to l.reak him down. Immediately after the first report; was submitted, it was rumored about town that tnere was some Governor making in this investigation. Whether or not this was true, the reader must determine for himself. Certainly the committee emitted a vast amount of smoke from a most ridiculously small quantity of fire. The American Newspaper AdVcrtisrg Agency ol Geo. P. Rowell A Cos., New York, is ike only establishment of the kind in the United States which keeps itself persistently | before the people by advertising in netespa ptrs They evidently receive tlieir re ward, for we have it from a reliable source that advertising orders issued by them for their customers have exceeded three thousand dollars a Jay since the commencement of the year, and this is not a rery pood year for ad vertising either.
