TOWN AND COUNTY NEWS Exit Ulysses. Spring colds are fashionable. Superior Coart commences Monday. Mrs. John Davidson, of Kingston, is vistiting Calhoun, Very little Bickness reported in this vicinity just now. Marshall & Lee have put up anew sign in front of their house. An effort is being made to organize a lodge of Knights of Honor in this place. Tom Milner looks about as spry and as well pleased as any newly married man we have seen lately. Hightower can toss a brick with won derful precision. So thinks a colored gentleman of this place. Who was the young attorney that went quite beside himself on receiving his first"case last Saturday night ? Grasshoppers and candidates for del egates to the Convention are being de veloped in numerous and startling num bers. It is earnestly desired that all the Good Templars be present at their meeting to night, as business of vital importance will be transacted. Farmers report the fruit trees severe ly injured by the freezes in January, and peach trees have been noticed which are believed to be eutirely kilL ed. * *, ~\L Steps are to be erected in Iront of the Court House running full width of the building in accordance with a rec ommendation of the Grand Jury,and the worx will be commenced at once. Mr. Moore, we believe has the job. wm Mr. Joseph Davenport, of Atlanta, visited his mother at this place last week, and we were pleased to see him looking so well. Joe is a clever fellow, but unless his physical make-up devcl opes with more rapidity than it has in the last few years, he will never be a giant in stature. The literary society, we are pleased to learn, is proving quite a success, a great interest being taken by the mem bership, which numbers about thirty, and includes, besides a large portion of the young ladies and gentlemen of the place, several of the married people. The social influences are beneficial and it is likely to prove improving to the minds of the members. If one will take a casual glance at the interior of the depot just now, he will instantly conclude that corn is king in this part of the country. There are at present stored away there between four and five thousand bushels, a large portion of which is from the farm of Samuel Pulliam, on the Coosawattee, and a portion also from the Humphreys farm. A young man of this place had part ly forgotten a song he was' trying to sing, and determined to make it rhyme, lie rattled away as follows : Oh, if I had a lumpty turn lumty turn too In the land of the olive and fig. I would sing of the luniti turn lurati to you And play on the thim amy jig. And if in the liimfty turn battle I fall, A tu;uti turn’s ail that 1 crave, Oh, bury me deep in the whatyou-may call And plant the thingumbobs o’er my grave. We trust our subscribers will pardon us for again asking those who are be hind with their subscription to help us a little during Court week. We are sadly in need of funds to meet debts which are pressing us, and our subscri bers know how indulgent we have been with them, and should give us all the assistance in their power. The amounts are small to each individual, while, to us, if we oould only get half that is due us, the aggregate would be of immense benefit to us at this time. We have Concluded to send out no written state ments at present, and respectfully ask those who know themselves to be in ar* rears to call on us and settle. We are compelled to have money. The following is a list of letters re-* maining in the Post Office at Calhoun, Gordon county, Ga. ; advertised March •b 1877. Persons calling for any of said letters will please say advertised : Bray, F. J.; Brown, Jackson ; Brooks, J. B.; Brown, G. N.; Bray, Malinda ; Brand, John H.; Echols, A.; Evan3, Caroline ; Ford, E. B.; Floyd, M. S.; Gober, Th >B.; Greene,Bailey ; Gibson, John ; Harris, Adahne; Henson, J. TA NARUS.; Hollis, Mary ; Howell, Van ; Haynes, hSallie A.; Howell, W. B ; K inneman, A.; King, A. P. ; Mcßae, Mary; Pra ter, Amey; Pritchett, Josephine ; Rash, J* W.; Stone, K.E.; Smith, Jennie; Wright, Wm. Robert Ransone, P. M. The Methodist parsonage, in its pres ent condition looks very little like it was intended as the home of one of God s faithful servants Fences neglec ted and decaying, glasses broken from the windows,and the house wearing a dis mal and rickety look—enough to throw a reproach upon those whose small duty it is to keep up and take care of the property. The house, at present, we be lieve is unoccupied,while in order to find a home of any comfort for the minister it was necessary to rent other property, which the church has contracted to keep, for the present year. We have often wondered if our good Methodists have ever thought of repairing and put ting in good condition the parsonage property, but we have never heard the subject referred to, and suppose they would prefer to take chances as they come, and provide a home for the min ister every year by renting. We fail to see any good judgment or economy in such an arrangement. The property belongs to the church, and the money expended for rents one year would be sufficient to m .ke the needed repairs, aud with an additional outlay it could be neatly furnished, and would remain a permanent home for the pastor. We would be glad to see our good pe- ple take an interest in this matter, and there is plenty of time to bring the move to a successful terminus before another year’s arrangements are to be made. In the regular routine of events it is hard to foretell who the matrimonial cur rent is next likely to seize for its victim. When gray haired men over whose head threescore more have passed begin cutting didoes the bachelors of our day who fritter their lives away sewing on their own buttons and feel ing not the tender influences of chosen life companions of the tender sex, have examples set them by whieh they might be made the heads of happy and con tented homes. Go and ask those aged sires who have the second time willing ly placed their necks in the matrimonial baiter for advice, and they say get mar ried. Last Sunday a wedding took rlace at the residence of Mr. P. C. Weeks, in which the bride was Mrs. A. A. Mitchell, daughter of Mr. Weeks, whose age was about thirty-five, and the bridegroom Mr. William Curtis, Senior, now in his seventy-third year. Rev A. S. Tatum performed the ceremony. We wish the couple much happiness. They caine from distant fields to dwell, To ba k in the same sun ; A beautiful example of Two hearts that beat as one. See advertisement of Mendelssohn piano Cos., N, Y. These pianos made one of the finest displays at the Cen tennial Ehxhibition, and were unat • imously recommended for the diploma of honor and medal of merit. This company are the first to do a general business with the purchaser direct, eav ing him more than one half the price charged by other first-clasa makers. We would recommend any of our readers who have any idea of ever buying a piano, to send for their illustrated de scriptive catalogue,which will be mailed free to all. As will be seen by the reports from Adairsville and Resaca in this issue, we are endeavoring to get the news weekly from the different points in this vicini ty through local correspondents, and we believe it is a feature which will be generally appreciated by our readers.— We now wanL someone to furnish us a similar report v. cokly from Plainville, Fair mount and Sugar Valley, and to any one who will send us the items from these points we will send the Times to their addi ess regularly for the favor. On Monday next our young friend? Tames S. Hillhouse will assume the du ties of assistant teacher in the academy at th is place. In assisting Prof. Scott, whose talentsand faithfulness are so well acknowledged by the community, we doubt not he will so discharge his uui ties as to give general satisfaction to the patrons of the institution. He is one of our most studious, industrious and worthy young men. Messrs. B. M. &C. C. Harlan come before our readers with a local notice setting forth the fact that they are re ceiving their spring goods, and at all times during the season will be able to supply customers with first class goods at the lowest figures for cash. They are enterprising and clever business men.— Give them a call. The ladies who have been appointed to solicit articles for household use for the family of Rev. Mr. Dickey again ask us to urge thote who have promised to contribute articles to bring them for ward at once, as they are sadly needed. A mammoth sponge found in Flori da is twelve feet in circumference and weighs nineteen pounds. We have seen sponges that would weigh one hundred and fifty, if the circumference wasn’t so great. Miss Willie Ramey, of Rome, is on a visit to her friends in Calhoun. “Mollie Darling” is the favorite song of a Calhoun youth. ADAtRSVILLE AFFAIRS. Adairsville, Ga., March 1,1877. Editor Calhoun Times : My long silence has not been for waut of something to write, but merely negligence on my part. The weather is fine, the atmosphere temperate, and to a man up a tree would seem as if spring time had come, “gentle Annie." The gardens are being planted, acd our far mers are plowing with a vim, and to all appearances,it looks asif our people“geo erally were determined to have some thing tofeat, if they have to work for it. Our town has grown greatly since I wrote you last. We have now seven ty two families I'ving within the incor porate limits, with an average of five to \he family. The large cotton mills owned by the Gray firm are now run ning on full time. They employ directly and indirectly about sixty-five hands. They consume one thousand pounds raw cotton*daily, fhich produces about three thousand yards of sheetings. The machinery consists of eighteen cards two thousand spinners.and fifty-six looms This machinery is drawn by a seventy-five horse-power engine, which consumes about four cords of wood each day. The expenses being heavy conse quently the factory runs during each day about thirteen hours. We have two other sets of machinery run by steam power: the old reliable m rcbai fc mills, ow ned by J. M. Yeach & Cos., and the custom mills, owned by T. W. Hays & Cos. These engines in con junction with the engine at the factory consume fquitc a quantity of wood, and it is a very novel sight to see the num ber of wagons that haul daily. I have counted during one day thirty-eight wagons hauling wood to the different mills. Our business men generally are getting their heads above the waves, and are now doing a very lively tiade. The local option law has been repeal ed, and the bar-tenders have procured license to retail l’quor, for whici they pay one hundred dollars, so now any body can get a drink in the shape of a cobbler, smash, punch, or anything of a cooling, healing and drawing nature and if they want to they can get drunk, cut up, get in the calaboose, and pay a fine of not more than twenty dollars, besides the cost of the beverage. Our bar-keepers aie different from all others I have ever seen, as they keep nothing but the best and are always ready, will ing and anxious to sell drinks,[and only charge the small suui of two nickels. Tobe looks as pleasing a basket of chips, and says, “Come boys, I am now leady to suit you with anything to drink !” We have as clever a set of merchants generally as can be found on this line of road. Rumors are afloat that we are soon to have a millinery and mantua-making establishment in our town under the management of Mrs. A. W. Ballew and Mrs. T. P. Jon s. Wo caD but loox forward to that enterprise with expec tations of success. We need one great ly, and only hope they will put their plan into operation. The Good Templars’ banner still floats to the breeze, as there yet remains a few—the elect—fully determined to die by the spotless banner, or- be the instruments by which men may be saved from filling drunkards graves. We had the pleasure yesterday to hear our beloved pastor, Rev. J. M. Dickey, deliver one of his soul-stirring sermons, for which he is gifted. All who heard it were elated with that flow of soul that accompanies his sermons. He is just the right man in the right place. We only lack one thing to make our town a success, and that is a law* yer. Could you not spare us one or two from your place to make things lively on court days ? Send us a sam ple copy of some of your young limbs of the law, so that we can make an order at once. Excuse me for being so concise—will be more elaborate in the future. Yours. &c., Cleo. RESiCA RIPPLES, Resaca, Ga., March 3, 1877. Dear Times : At preseat Resaca is quite dull, trade ia very light, but little doing in the mercantile line. There is very little money in circulation ; at least it is but little that finds its way to your corres pondent’s pocket. We trie! to find a man a few days ago who had a nickel, but were informed that he had just left town. Although money is so scarce, still our merchants seem to be doing a very good barter trade, from the amount of eggs that are piled up in every store, and the amount that are daily shipped to Atlanta. It is generally thought that the peach crop was killed by the cold weather of this win.er. Some think the trees are killed. We find by shaking the trees that the buds will fall off like dry leaves. We hope, however, they are not entirely killed out, for we consider a nice ripe, juicy peach as fine fruit as North Georgia produces. Some of our citizens have commenced to garden in earnest, judging from the ‘‘woa ! haw !” “go on there !” that can be heard in all parts of our town. The general topic of conversation on our streets is who will be our next President? Will Mr. Hayes he inaug urated, or will we have another elec tion ? Two sleight-of-hand and patent med icine men gave our town a call, and gave us a fee entertainment on last Saturday night, which pleased the little folks very much—also some of our young men, especially those who '.earned how to throw their voices ! But little occurs to break the quie£ of our town. Occasionally onq <if the canine tribe try some “rat poison,” which causes some excitement, but by administering a pound of lard and half pint of whisky the dog is well and trots off to his master’s pleasure. Respectfully, Moses. TWO PACTS ! FIRST. Cash is cash, no matter how you say it. Will buy goods cheaper than any prom ise to pay it. SECOND. We are constantly receiving our Spring and Summer gpoda consisting of DRY GOODS, NOTIONS of every description. CLOTHING, HATS, SHOES, &0., &c , and will in a few days be able to show one of the nicest and best selected stock that has ever been offered in Calhoun. Our stock of shoes is EXTENSIVE. In Ladies’ fine shoes we offer a larger and better variety than can be found elsewhere in this market. We have figured our pri ces so THEY talk, and our goods speak for themselves. Oui stock will be kept to the very highest standard through the season. We want your trade and influence, and will do all in our power to make it to your interest to spend your money at the CHEAP CASH STORE. Very respectfully, 13. M. & C C. HARLAN. The new Town Hall at Ayer.—This elegant structure is cow complete. In beauty of design it surpasses anything of the kind in the Stale. Constructed of brick and dark marble it is as per manent as it is charming. The English architects have adorned it in subdued colors, which please without tiring the eye. Dr. J. C. Ayer built and gave it to the town in acknowledgement of the distinction they conferred upon taking his.name.
