C'nllpsjww vTtmsjs, foWNAND COUNTY NEWS. Button your coat again. Gentle Spring—not much. M itrimooial difiereuces are styled mur.uurs ot the tied. The ‘Superior qCcurt convenes two weeks from next Monday. When is a woman not a woman? When turns into a dry goods store. Our young people didn’t seem to take the usual interest in Valentine’s day. Prof. Scott’s school, we are gratified to note, is constantly receiving addi tions. fiVliss Sallic Young is teaching a small echooi at her father’s place one mile in the country. Some folks who attempt to stand up* on their merits find themselves occupy irig a very narrow platform. RobetPßansone, our postmaster [hag gone to Now Orleans to be present at the Mardi Gras festivities. Bright Asa Diamond for 1877. —The Detroit Weekly Free Press known by name to every person in Amer ica as always one of the best, is to be brighter during 1877. It is a weekly unsurpassed for news, good stories, racy sketches, bright humor, family receipts, aud general interest to young and old We club the Times with the Detroit Free Press for $3.15. The fail sowiug of oats was damaged eo badly by the freezes that many plant ers arc sowing the same ground again fjr tho spring crop. Wheat has stood the weather well aud looks finely. It is customary now for f males who visit each other to carry their knitting along. A woman could knit half a doz en finger lengths while she would be re s biting the lateet developments in her neighbor’s affairs. We were pleascd_to meet in our off fice Tuesday, Prof. 11. G. Holtzhnuer, a skillful turner and repairer of pianos, who has recently located at Dalton. He will visit our place again shortly, and we trust our people will give him a trial. We admire the pluck of’ a certain prominent divine, who finding himself, at Resaca one day last week, and learn* j ing tho train would not stop for him so j that he could reach Calhoun that night, ! put out ovor'the ties afoot. Ee said it was a very plcasarWwalk. Our devil has turned philosopher. — His latest theory is about the wonder* ful donkey. Ono of these creatures which occupies quarters at the old 'iv ory stable, he has found out from close observation,' brays every half hour to a second by the clock. If either gets cut 1 of time it is the clock. For Salk. —One second-hand and two bran new sewing machines,two new pianos, and revolver, all of standard makes, will be sold at a big reduction from the manufacturer’s prices.and rea sonable time given responsible parties for a'portion ot the amount. If you wish to get a real bargain call at this office for particulars. We regret ‘hat the Baptist church is embarrassed financially on account of the magnificent improvements made last year. Funds amounting to about sixty-five dollars were subscribed by the members and congregation last Fun day, and many express the belief that by a little industrious stirring all obli gations can he met successfully, not withstanding the great, press the coun try is in. . — * \ A Literary Club was organised last Monday night at the residence of Mr. 11. J. Wilson, with some ten or twelve members. Meetings will be held reg ukirly serai-mo* thly, and at each meet ing members appointed for the pu r pose will read essays. Music will also form a part of each evening’s programme. — As the society gets under good head way new features will he developed The society will no doubt prove an in structive and entertaining institution, and we wish it general success. . ——— 7 In our hastily gotten up local iFbut Resuca last week we find we madb sev~ end mistakes. In mentioning the bus iness men of the place, we unintention ally emitted the name3 td Ft. V. • Hilt and W. il. Smith, who are in the mercantile list, and also Messrs. Rook er & Bradford, who deal in liquors and family groceries. We also leferred to the Baptist church as being the most at tractive, whea we meant tophus refer to the Methodist church. We rc-grct these oversights and errors, and cheer fully correct them in justice to Resaca and her citizens. Retiring by a Novel^l'rocess, The young’men of this place tell how one of their number, who is rather bashful, retired from a visit to his swecthcarFoneYvening last week, and from the looks that bespread his coun tenance when the story is told in his presence its authenticity is hardly to be questioned. The parlor is on the sec uud floor and is readied by a flight cf stairs—to ascend which one is obliged to pass directlv by the door to. the sit ting room, where the young gentlemen boarders sit and chat away the after supper hours. Apprised of the young man’s presence in tho parlor, they made it up to sit him out and ascertain by the timeofhisdeparture if he meant business in a matrimonial^way. But the young man was thinking of their presence be low, and as their eye-lids drooped for want of sleep he resolved to make his egress unknown to them, and escape their teasing deliberately laid up for him. There is a high verandah which overhangs the street, and bowing good* Dight to the young lady, out on to this the young man cautiously j tiptoed.— Glancing underneath to see if any one was watching his movements he crawled over the banister. In a little while a noise sounding like sand paper rubbed over a chair post came to the ears of the party below, and filing cue by one out on the lower verandah, theyTeasted their gaze on a young man midway the post extending to the verandah above, his descent being so rapid as to cause the bottom part of hi3 pants to accu mulate kneeward3, and the treacherous post rapidly wearing the bark away from his naked shins. He lodged at last in the midst of his friends below, and was a special object of sympathy, more than one volunteering to pick the splinters from his calves. But till yet ho refuses to be comforted. Council,'Proceedings. Council Room, ) Calhoun, Oa., Feb. 12, 1877. } Council met with full board. On motion, the fixing of the street tax was taken up. Mr. Harlan moved to make it $3 00 which motion, with a proper second, wa- put to the vote, and carried unanimously. On motion, it was ordered that the Marshal bo instructed to notify each and every one within the corporate limits of the town, subject to road du ty, to be and appear at ths court house on the first Monday’in April, prepared to work on the’strects, and those fail ing to do so will be returned as road defaulters, subject to a fine of, from one to three dollais day, subject to the discretion of the board. But, those paying the tax at or prior to that t’mo will be excused for the year from all street duty ; sub ject V) the full term of the law — fifteen d(iyn\icork. 31. A. Moore, Chairman. 11. W.

Avery interesting and delightful uumberjs Ballou’sj Magazine fur’Mareh- It opens with an elaborate illustrated article on Japan, and then folluvvs sev eral other engravings, and then comes tlie stories just what will chaim a house hold ; for all of them are good, aud many of them superior to anything pub ishod in the country.

Take it all in all we feel assured that there is no magazine in this couutrygthal furnishes so much for the small amount of money as Bal lou’s.

On Thursday evening Lst at the res idence of the brides mother, at Reeves’ Station, Mr. T. C. Milner, of this place was married to 31iss Ella Inghram, Rev. J. B. llillhouse performing the cere mony. The marriage was a quiet affair being witnessed only by members of the family and a gentleman friend of Mr. Milner's. We congratulate the happy pair. 3lr. Milner is a rising young law yer of North Georgia,aud his bride, one of the most amiable and worthy ladies in the county. Miyftheir Wedded life be one of blissful eqj^ymeht. It is certainly not a very ccmmenda. Lie trait in small boys who make them, selves so conspicuous on public occa sions as to be veritably annoying to the sensibilities of eveiy body. We do not wish to offend any one by our remarks, bu‘ we do think parents should feel it a dutv to correct these youngsters when they thus endeavor to disturb gather ings of any kind. Strangers who some I times witness this inexcusable rudeness ido not hesitate to speak lightly of the morals of tho place. It ought to be cor rected. Minister Hi ties and the Turkish del egate, Pertif Effcndi, have agreed on a basis of peace—viz : saluting the lurk itsh flag,consecration ofScrvian fortress es,and prevention of armed bands cross ing the frontier. STABBED TO THE HEART. A Jealous Woman Deliberately Takes, the Life of Another Woman —An Evening Party Turned into a Sickening Scene of Murder. • Mr. J. L. Bradley, of Pickens coun ty, c.uue to our office Wednesday, to have some bills printed, offering a re ward for the arrest of Catharine South ern, and Irom him we learned the lead ing facts concerning a tragedy which occurred last Saturday night, and for which a parallel is rarely furnished iu the criminal catalogue which is con** stantly swelling in the onward tread of time. In a respectable neighborhood, about ten miles north of the town of Jasper, in Pickens county, live the families of 3lr. Hambric and Mr. Fow ler. Catharine Southern is the daugh ter of 3lr. Hambric, aud lust Spring was married to 3lr. Robert Southern. But for the fact perhaps, that the monster jealousy had poisoned their short marriage experience by finding a hiding place in the wife’3 bosom, the dread catastrophe which has forever stained her life with a sister’s blood would not have saddened the homes which now bear the shame and despondency which follow the criminal and the victim. 3lr. Southern had been accused by his wife of bestowing his affections too freely upon 31rs. Cow art, a daughter of Mr. Fowler, late ly divorced from her husband, and this kindled the flames that grew into the frenzy which caused his wife to take the fatal steps she did. Though the people of the neighborhood be lieved the acts of 31 r. Southern, to wards 31 rs. Cowart did not justify his wife’s unpleasant apprehensions, she nevertheless, seemed to harbor a burn ing hatred towards her imaginary rival in her husband’s affections, which grew, it appears, into a premeditated intention to take her life—from the fact that she had requested her to be present at a gathering of the young people at her father’s home on Satur day night, and before the event ex> pressed her intention to kill her. 31rs. Cowart attended the entertainment, as requested, and as the music began, partners stationed themselves around tho room for a cotillion, and as Mr*. Cowart took liei place the pent up fury of the jealous woman, like some fercr clous beast, awaiting it3 prey, seemed to grow into a maddened frenzy, and requesting her husband’s pocket-knife, on pretense of wishing to trim a tooth brush, confronted her victim ou the floor, and with a few furious words plunged the keen blade successively in* to her body, until one of six deadly stabs entered tho heart and brought 31 r3. Cowart to the fffor limp and lifeless without a word or a groau. Horrified beyond measure at the spectacle of the dreadful drama, the crowd, which mainly consisted of young people, for considerable time took no steps to prevent the escape of the woman who had finished her mor-* tal work, and iu the exhaustion from her murderous struggle, she went into another part of the house and threw herself on a bed, there to meditate upon her rashness, and either ignorant of their authority or fearing to make an arrest, some of the oldest of the males present went three miles away to a Justice of the Peace, and a party, returned to arrest the murderess, but accompanied by her husband—who had no doubt accepted the inevitable with a view to aid her in escape—she had fled none knew where. The affair threw the neighboihood into a fever of excitement and the most and! igent search has been p r osecuted, but to no avail at last accounts. It is believed they have reached the railroad, and that the criminal will fall into Pe hands of justice ere long. Both the families of 31 rs. Cowart and 3lrs. Southern are of good standing in Pickens county, and this affair has fal len a saddening blow upon ther house holds. [Comm u v i ca t ed. ] To tlie Slemorj’ of Hrs. IMiih WyaAt. Died, at her residence, near Calhoun, Qa., on the 31st day of January, 1876, .Mrs. Edith Wyatt, wife of Rev. L. D. Wyatt, in the GOth year of her age. The deceased was born in East Ten nessee on the 3d of November, 1816- She was converted to Christianity when she was 18 years of age. She lived an acceptable member of the 31. E. Church, South, and an exemplary Christian for nearly 42 years, during all of which time she never had a charge aeaiost her church, oor her church O. against her. She was married Jau. G. 1835, to L. D. Wyatt, a Methodist minister of the Gospel, with whom she lived in perfect peace and harmony, un til the day of her death. She was the mother of eight sons and two daugh ters, two sons and one daughter dying while young. Traveling ministers always met a hospitable reception at her home, and indeed, she never seemed happier than when the hostess of the people of Gcd. A model wife, an agreeable companion., ! a lonu mother, and a true Friend tefihe* friendless, her death: falls heavily on 1 tho hearts cf many, and casts a gloom around the family [hearthstone which time cannot dissipate. In tho death of Mrs. Wyatt, we see verified dig jSqjipture passage, ‘‘Whom the Lord loveth, He chasteoeth for surely site, with her ennobling traits of character and many womanly virtues, w:.s one of the elect of God. Her j loss is not only felt by her relatives, hut, ! is mourned by numbers who were j bound to her by the chords of Christian fellowship and love. Let us, relatives' and friends, be comforted by the thought that our loss is her eternal gain ; and may we all strive to meet her in that Heavenly land, whither she hath surely gone. S. R. F. GOV. BROWN’S FARM. A Casual Ramble in the Coosa* wattee^Bottoms. The farm lies about eight miles above Calhoun on the Ooosawattee river. You approach the premises by a small by road, and emergihg Viom the woods, as it were, your eyes turn the right of the immense opeu space’ suddenly bursting upon the vision aud they rest upon a comfortable looking, but un pretentious frame dwelling, built after the old pattern of houses. This is the former homestead ot 31 1. Joseph Wilson, new deceased, and from whose estate the Governor purchased the origiual landed interest, we believe,[ in 18G9, and lias since added to it 160 acres of rich cleared bottom, which he bought of 3lr. J ajars ilarjap; paying him the sum of nine thousand dollars', and he now owns perhaps the most de sirable farm in Georgia. The build ings on the p’ace are the same’jused by 31 r. Wilson, and the spacious barn loft at all times of the year filled to their full capacity attest the productive ness of the lands, and good manage ment has brought good results. The farm is under the supervision cf Capt. Wm. Y. Findley, who was the mana ger of the place prior to the Governors purchase. The farm is and 'nanted j and there are in all some eight or ten renters, vho furnish their own imple ments. stock, provisions, &c., for a cer tain portion of the crop. There is over 500 acres of cleared land on the place, and vet v little of phfe uruarldj— . ? • •* - ■ / The river divides Rhe TAnn, in its course making an immense curve, in which reposes the main bu ! k of the cultivated land. It is one of the finest bodies we have ever seen. You view it about one and a half miles square, not broken by a ditch or cfoss fence, aud the tall timbers which majesti cally skirt the western side close in a panorama only lacking nature’s green coating to render it complete in gran deur. It is high enough not to be en dangered by overflows, and is of black sandy soil, well adapted to ccrik yield ing of good seasons almost surely sixty bushels to the acre. There wore only seven bales of cotton produced on the whole farm last year, and besides wheat, clover, oats, &c., there were housed in the fall 473 wagon loads of j corn. The stock of the farm is not of [ improved bloods exclusively, though the common breeds have very email fa vor iu the Governor’s farming ideas.— His cattle are mostly Durham and Devon, the latter being the favorites as milkers. In swine the Be; kshires take the lead, and the common breeds com pose most of his selection of sheep. The mule trade proving unsuccessful, hogs and sheep are most impottant in the stock line, and of the latter he has a very desirable flotk of somefhtfcg near a hundred head. The pasture lands alone yielding sustenance the principal part of the year, they are kept at less j cost and pay better for the trouble and ■ expense than almost any other class of stock. In til*:* WocdlanY'eLi bti fouifd excellent tifnbers cf*uft lrin<rs—pines alone enough to supply a saw mill for several ycais, white monster white oaks and waki£t are in -the bottoms in numerable. Capt. Findley gave us some facts about his profitable experience with fruit trees. An orchard was planted out on the richest spot in the river bottoms. One of the trees the seventh year bore fifteen husjie , of’ pid worth at fifty cents a Irtish**), j This ought to establish 'tne theory that : trees planted out on poor hill sides to decay in three years after bearing i3 time and labor expended in fblly. Capt Findley conducts the business of the farm in a thorough, economical ! and systematic manner, tint we .doubt if 1 there is another man whose actions and I ’deas would be as acceptable to Gov. * Brown. Thoroughly familiar with the | farm, the Governor’s wonts, and the duties devolvent upon him. he bus a home ■re as long ns he* wi*be it. 8 me of our county officers experi ! cnced trouble in securing bondsmen,aud j some of those elected fo the smaller of fices failed entirely.
