REEVES & MAI.ONE
Calhoun, Qa, Sep, H, J 877.1 t
Foster fc Harlan.
Foster & Harlan began on Thursday
to move into the handsome new two
story brick building at tho old stand
erected by Judge Foster. This is one
of the most substantial, if not in some
respects tho most attractive building in
Cherokee Georgia. Everything about
it has been constructed with an eye to
durability. Its dimensions are 24x60
feet. The foundation is of rock, quar
ried at this place, and the wal’s are of
a good thickness and put together in
the most substantial and workmanlike
manner. The roof is of Georgia slate,
put on tW most secure set of rafters we
have aver seen used in a building | the
exterior has a good appearance. The
door and window-sills are of gum, the
doors leal oak and walnut of massive
strength and varnished; the windows
and doors are made with circle-heads.
The front is a gable, which adds to the
durability of its construction, and takes
nothing from its beauty. The upstairs
will be made into offices. The store
room below is fitted up in an attractive
manner, and when tho enormous stock
of goods of Foster & Harlan are finals
ly arranged on its shelves will give it
the appearance of what it will be, one
of the very best appointed retail stores
of North Georgia, and an enterprise
any town might be glad to claim. Our
clever citizen, Mr. Mark Moore, supers
intended the construction of the build
ing, and deserves special praise for his
practical ideas and persevering disposi
tion in the builder’s art
This week new goods havo been ar
riving for the fitm, ordered preparato
ry to the contemplated move. They
arc now carefully arranging in place a
large and superior stock of clothing,
dry goods, boots, shoes, prints, domes
tics, jeans, cassimeres, hardware,
quecnswarc, &c., apparently preparing
for an immense trade which their spir
it of enterprise wo are sure will bring
them. Go and see them in their new
store.
The people of this county are just
now agitated in no small degree over a
disgraceful affair which happened in its
borders the past week. The Coroner,
Mr. C. C. Harlan, was called to the
upper portion of the county on last
Sunday morning to hold an inquest over
the body of a dead infant just found.
A jury was made up of gentlemen from
this place. From tho evidence of wit
nesses before them the following is
about the story of the crime, leaving a
great deal as yet in mystery:
At the home of Mr. M. N. Robert
son, who is a citizen living in fair cir
cumstances near Fields’ old mill, lives
Miss Ana Bryson, who is now fifteen
years of age. She is a niece of Mr.
Robertson’s first wife, who is dead, v he
h n s but recently married a second time)
and having lived with Mr. R from a
very early period of her life, has learn
ed to look upon him as a friend and a
protector. Last Saturday night about
twelve o’clock a nephew of Mr. R. who
did business with him in a country
store and was at his house was called
up and sent for Mr. Thos. 11. Hall, a
physician of a rather short experience,
for the purpose as was afterwards as*
certained of relieving the sufferings of
Miss Bryson. On arriving Mr. Hall
accused her of having been delivered
of a child, which she denied, but on be*
ing questioned as to its whereabouts in
a rambling way stated that it was down
in the woods. Mr. Hall, joined by Mr.
Robertson’s nephew, a Mr. Gibbs and
Mr. Robertson, began a search, with
lights, visaing every spot about which
they supposed it might be concealed.—
Near the hour of day break the infant
was found in a lifeless state near the
trunk of a fallen tree covered with an
old sack with limbs piled above its
body. Its form was considerably bruised
and pressed out of shape, and one of
the largest limbs lay immediately across
the neck. Its face bore marks of vio
lence resembling the imprint of a hand
about its mouth.
The jury examined witnesses and
from the testimony made up its verdict
fastening the murder upon the mother,
wilh Mr. Robertson, to which the
strongest kinds of facts pointed to as
its father, accessory to the crime. Mr.
Robertson bad a final preliminary hear
ing before Judge McCutcheacn Thurs
day, and was bailed in the sum of five
thousand dollars. The girl, who is not
yet recovered, is watched by an officer,
and until her recovery aud the hearing
of her testimony but few new faets in
the case are likely to be developed,
meanwhile public opinion ripens and wilj
clamor for justice against the actual
perpetrators of a crime so heinous
against the laws of the country, and an
outrage to society meriting universal
indignation. New phases of the case
will be watched and shall have notice
in these columns.
Col. J. €. Fain.
Editor Times : As the time is draw
ing near for the people to begin to cast
about for representative men, to whom
they can confide their interests, in the
General Assembly, and who are to be
chosen F JJeoomber, when the Consti
n \s to b3 ratified, it may not be
owwMored! ■flapv.'.7 riate 10 subluk ,U6S
gestions, and my business having been
such recently as to bring me in contact
with many citizens, specially of the
eastern end of the county, and having
heard many express their preferences,
I have thought I would tell the public,
as the almost universal choice is xn*en
tire accord with my preference.
The people seem fully conscious of
one thing, and that ia, to realize all the
benefits to flow from the adoption of the
now Constitution, there must be wise
legislation, to secure this, the best men
mu6t be sent to the General Assembly
that Gordon county under the rotation
rule is entitled to the Senator from the
43d district. Now, the seeming almost
universal cfcofee for /Hob. J. C. Fain for
Senator. Do you think, Mr.-Etlitoiy a
more fit, suitable or capable man could
be found for the position ? It is gener
ally believed there cannot. His record
in war, in peace, his admirable acts in
behalf of the people in the late Consti
tutional Convention entitle him to the
confidence and support of the people
whom he has served so faithfully. He
is called upon to enter into the canvass,
and may rest assured of hearty support
from especially, Coosawattee.

calling at this office :
Dear Josii : Please come home.—
We need you very much, as several sad
accidents have befallen us. John
sprained his ankle badly, and Sarah’s
frosted feet are troubling her. My
corns are increasing in number and se
verity, and the knots on our mule’s
back are growing larger. Uncle Dick

come home and bring a bottle of Cous

You can buy it at any drug store for

On meeting a friend the first inquiry
is always regarding his health. Why?
Because health is of the first consider
ation ; yet many will sit in a cold, damp
theatre, regardless of weak lungs and
hacking cough. Discard some of the
ephemeral pleasures of the day, such as
theatre-going, cigar-smoking, &c.. and
invest your small change in something
that will be a lasting benefit. For in
stance, Coussens’ Compound Honey of
Tar costs only 50 cents, and will cure
your Cough, Cold, and all diseases of
the Throat and Lungs. Try it.
A Word to the Unemployed,
Our attention has been called to a
new cooking utensil, recently invented,
which makes baking a pleasure, instead
of a dreaded necessity ; the inventor of
which lias conferred an everlasting
blessirg upon every housekeeper. Wc
refer to the Patent Centennial Cake
and Bread Pan, with which, by simply
raising a hook, you can remove the
sides of the pan from the cake instant,
ly, without breaking or injuring it in
the least, thus enabling you to ice and
frest it while warm. To remove the
sube in the center, insert a knife in the
Got in the top of tho tube, and simply
give it a half turn, and it will drop out.
It is also provided with a slide on the
bottom, so that, when you remove the
tube, you can close the hole, making a
pan with plain bottom, for baking jelly
and plain cakes, pudding, bread, etc.,
thus practically givimj you two pans
for the price of one.
Ihe Centennial Cake Pan is highly
recommended by the ladies as being
the best and most convenient pan ever
introduced. They are made of Russia
iron, a’-e more durable, and will bake
your cakes more evenly and a much
nicer brown than you can bake them in
the old-fashioned tin cake pans. These
goods a i -o sold exclusively through
agents to families, and every housekeep
er should by all means have them. A
splendid opportunity is offered to some
reliable lady or gentleman canvasser of
this county to secure the agency for a
pleasant and profitable business. For

' operation, moving
/rW fu -Although gentle
I H|' in their operation,
they are still the
most thorough and
tic medicine that can be employed: cleans
ing the stomach and bowels, and even the
blood. In small doses of one pill a day,
they stimulate the digestive' organs and
promote vigorous health.
Ayer’s Pills have been known for
more than a quarter of a century, and have
obtained a world-wide reputation for their
virtues. They correct diseased action in
the several assimilative organs of the
body, and are so composed that obstruc
tions within their range can rarely with
stand or evade them. Not only do they
cure the every-day complaints of every
body, but also formidable and dangerous
diseases that have baffled the best of
human skill. While they produce power
ful effects, they are, at the same time, the
safest and best physic for children. By
then’ aperient action they’gripe much less
than the common purgatives, and never
give pain when the bowels are not inflamed.
They reach the vital fountains of the blood,
and strengthen the'system by freeing it
from the elements of weakness.
Adapted to all ages and conditions in
all climates, containing neither calomel
nor any deleterious drug, these Pills may
be taken with safety by anybody. Their
sugar-coating preserves them ever fresh,
and makes them pleasant to take; while
being purely vegetable, no harm can arise
from their use in any quantity.
