In all cases they must be paid for ou

least six men in this county who have

looking for them to subscribe every day.
The election is not far off —it begins

being transported over the State Road.
Home days forty or more car loads might
be counted going down.
tiff- As it is now hog-killing time, if
any of our readers think we do’nt know
how to edit a paper, we won’t get mad if
they send us a supply of brains.
tiff" There is a great demand for
dwelling houses in Calhoun. We hear
of several families desiring to locate here,
who cannot procure dwellings.
i Declined. —Robt. Garlington, Esq.,
has very wisely declined making the
race for Representative, against Col.
Fain, the Democratic candidate. This
act on his part evinces a regard for par
ty and principle, which will in due time
receive its reward.
M
Christmas Tree. —Cannot the la
dies of Calhoun get up a Christmas tree
for the benefit of the poor in our midst,
or the Sunday school, church, or some
other good purpose ? Such an affair
would afford our citizens a chance to do
a good deed and enjoy a jolly evening
in the bargain.
Let the ladies meet —appoint a com
mittee to solicit contributions of money,
or any article from a jews-harp to a hoop
skirt. Then number every article plac
ed upon the tree —charge an admission
of fifty cents or more, also numbering
the tickets of admission. An hour
could be pleasantly spent in distributing
the articles on the tree to the parties
holding tickets with corresponding num
bers.
P What say you, ladies ?
Election Managers. —The follow
ing gentlemen have been appointed
election managers for Gordon county :
By the Ordinary—J. D. Tinsley,
Wiley Roberts; by the Governer—
Morgan Mooney, W. W. Denman, 11.
B. llouk.
We are requested to call a meeting
of the above mauagers at the Ordinary’s
office in Calhouu on Monday evening
next.
Newspapers for Children. —The
following gives a hint to parents about
a very important matter :
A child beginning to read, becomes
delighted with newspapers, because he
reads names which are very familiar,
and he will progress accordingly. A
newspaper one year is worth a quarter’s
schooling to a child, and every father
must consider that substantial informa
tion is connected with this advance
ment. The mother of the family, being
one of the heads, and having a more
immediate charge of the children, should
herself be instructed.
A mind occupied becomes fortified
against the ills of life, and is braced for
any emergency. Children amused by
reading or study are of course more eas
ily governed. How many thoughtless
young men have spent their earnings at
a tavern or grog shop, who ought to have
hcen reading ! How many parents who
have never spent twenty dollars for
books for their families, would gladlv
have given thousands to reclaim a son
or daughter, who had ignorantly and
fallen into temptation.
Generar Amnesty. —The Wash
ington correspondent of the Baltimore
Stuij says:
Nmie of the President’s friends ex
press much concern that he did not
atoet their views and recommend gen
eral amnesty. It is supposed he has
been thoroughly influenced by Texas
and Georgia Radicals, who want nothing
1,1 ihe kind until after the election in
those States. No less than three bills
1 " r general amnesty have been prepared.
One was introduced to-day in the Senate,
hxtreme Republicans say the election
e ance, l nited States Senator from
T h ( arolina, has damaged the pros
pects of umnesty some, but how, does
Rot exactly appear.
Mr. Editor :
ou will plouse announce, by publish
i u tliis card, that lam not a candidate
for the Legislature. I have had no in
kntiou from the beginning of engaging
111 an } eanvaas controversy, or discussion,
find as I do not wish to give even a pre

rtion of iavoring a Democratic defeat,

altogether as a candidate.

Calhoun, Dec. 7.
Franklin Steam Printing and
Publishing House— J. J. Toon,
Proprietor, Atlanta, Ga.— lt is
with pleasure we call attention to this
large and flourishing Publishing House.
In all respects the house keeps pace with
the progress of the progressive city in
which is located. From its presses is
sue ne less than seven different publica
tions, per week, and on the 15th of Jan
uary the publication of the eighth will
be commenced, under the immediate su
pervision of the enterprising proprietor.
Two of the publications, directly the
property of the house, we take pleasure
in mentioning. The first is the Chris
tian Judex. This paper enters, with the
new year, on its fiftieth (jubilee) vol
ume. It is the recognized organ of its
denomination in Georgia, Alabama and
Florida. Laboring, through all its his
tory, to promote evangelical doctrine, a
pure Christian life, the progress of edu
cation, the cause of temperance and good
morals, and the spirit of benevolence—
showing itself not unmindful of the
children, the fireside, the industrial and
commercial interests of the country —
it may challenge, for ability, wholesome
influence, and general interests, the pat
ronage of the public at large. The sub
scription is low' at 83 per annum. And
the other is the Georgia Medical Com
panion. This is anew publication, de
signed to meet the wants of the Medical
profession of the South, and will be is
sued monthly, commencing \vith the
15th of January, 1871. We feel assur
ed that this journal will be of such char
acter as to commend it to the earnest
support of our people generally. Price,
82 per annum. Address,
J. J. Toon, Atlanta, Ga.
A Fatal Month.
October, 1870, was a month that will
be long remembered for the terrors it
wrought on land and sea. Earthquakes,
shipwrecks, and frightful hurricanes
were the order of the day. We do not
now recall the number of vessels lost du
ring the month, but among them were
some of the largest and staunchest
steamships built for the Atlantic trade.
Some were wrecked in European w aters,
some along the Southern coast and some
in the Pacific. The loss of life is fear
ful to contemplate, and the sufferings of
those who escaped death were almost as
bad as death itself. In one district in
Cuba over five hundred persons were
drowned by inundation, and many oth
er places scenes of the wildest terror
and destruction were witnessed. Ves
sels traversing the Atlantic were pitch
ed about like corks by the roaring, seeth
ing waves, and over a score were dashed
to pieces on the coast of Florida alone—
principally we should say, upon the Gulf
side,where the fury of the storm was
greatest. One Steamer, the Veruna,
from New York to Galveston, was total
ly wrecked, and all her passengers lost.
Only one of all the souls wrecked on
the coast of Donegal, Ireland, escaped
to toll the awful tale. Never, perhaps,
was the elemental work of a single month
so fearfully destructive of life and prop
erty in all parts of the world as was that
of October, 1870. —Metropolitan Rec
ord.
Girls Should Learn to Keep
llou se. —No young lady can be too well
instructed in anything which will affect
the comfort of a family. Whatever po
sition in society she occupies, she needs
a practical knowledge of household du
ties. She may be placed in such that it
will not be necessary for her to perform
such domestic labor, but on this account
she needs no less knowledge than if she
was to preside personally over the cook
ing stove and pantry. Indeed, I have
thought it is more difficult to direct oth
ers, and requires more experience, than
to do the same work with our own hands.
Mothers are frequeutly so nice and
particular they do not like to give up
any part of the care to their children.
This is a great mistake in their manage
ment, for they are often burdened with
labor, and need relief. Children should
be taught early to make themselves use
less, to assist their parents every way in
their power, and to consider it a privi
lege to do so.
Rewarding tile Brave. —Rewards
for special acts of courage are advertised
in the German papers. One paper has
a list of these prizes which extends
through several columns. The rewards
comprise recompense in money amount
ing in some cases to many thousands of
thalers, besides gold medals, rifles, gold
watches, carriages, thousands of bottles
of wine and innumerable other articles.
The inmates of Nevada States’ prison
made a desperate attempt to escape !
Thursday. Five of them got outside of
the main door and attacked the guards.
The guard shot one prisoner dead and
mortally wounded two others. Another i
was shot through the chest. The fifth 1
was captured after a desperate struggle. '

‘‘Dixie,” in Washington. —A
Radical paper iu Washington thus lets
off its bile:
“ One of the troupe who performs
upon what is called a “ tumbleronicon ”
and from which he gives really sweet
music, has, for the last three nights,
pampered to the tastes of the rebel spirit
existing in Washington, and played
“ Dixie.’’ This air, which became the
national hymn of the C. S. A., is receiv
ed with uproarious applause iu the capi
tal of the nation. Where more than
two-thirds of the people received their
support from the government, “ Dixie ”
is an insult. If during the war, any
performer had dared to sing or play
“ Dixie ” in a theatre of this city, he
would have been hurled from the stage
by the loyal soldiers present. We pub
licly request that this rebel air be here
after omitted from the programme at
our theatres.”

A Kansas paper tells of an Indian
agent who, in two years, has saved en

a $30,000 house and set up his brother
and two other honest fellows in the
newspaper business to denounce corrup
tion.

This School is at Sonora, Gordon county,
Ga., in a good moral neighborhood, ten miles
East of Calhoun, and consequently, free from
the demoralizing influence of towns and vil
lages, upon the young. Board, including
washing, can be had in the vicinity at $lO a
month. Students desiring it, can rent rooms
at low rates and board themselves.
The MUSIC DEPARTMENT, as heretofore,
is linger the supervision of Miss N. Malixda
Smith, a graduate of the School for the Blind,
Macon, Ga.
As to the character of this School, we res
pectfully refer to the numerous citizens of
Gordon and adjoining counties, who have ex
tensively patronized us for the past two years.
In addition to the educational opportuni
ties, that we have, heretofore, been able to
offer, we announce to those seeking an educa
tion, the following improvements in this
School for the year 1871: The services of
Miss M. S. Alexander, of Mobile, Ala., have
been procured as Teacher of French, Miss
Alexander is a thorough French Scholar,
speaks the language fluently, and we guaran
tee success in this Department. During the
present vacation, the buildings will undergo
such repairs as will render them convenient
and comfortable. Wo have purchased a set
of Surveying instruments, and we propose to
teach this science practically. A good Piano
has also been procured. For the encourage
ment of Oratory, a suitable prize will be
awarded to the best Dcdaimer at the close of
each spring session. We call the attention
of the public to the cheapness of our school,
both in reasonable board and to the fact that
many of our best students rent rooms and
board themselves, at a trifle above what it
would cost them to live at home.

THE exercises of this Institution will
be resumed on Monday, January 9,

Mr. GEO. S. FULTON, who has been teach
ing in the Academy for the present year, re
turns his sincere thanks to his patrons and
friends for their liberal patronage and sup
port in the past, and by close and assiduous
attention to his business, hopes to merit their
encouragement in the future.
The town of Calhoun is most beautifully sit
uated, the centre of one of the richest coun
ties in the State and possessing, in an emi
nent degree, those desirable attributes—
wealth and plenty. It is the intention of the
Principal to make Calhoun Academy inferior
to none in the advantages conferred upon
those preparing themselves for College. A
gentleman of a liberal education, possessing
a thorough knowledge of six different lan
guages and having some experience in his
calling of teaching, he will ever devote him
self to the best interests, both moral as well
as intellectual, of his pupils. Assistants of
experienced ability will be secured as the ne
cessities of the Institution may require.
RATES OF TUITION:
1 st Class—Orthography, Reading, Wri
ting & Primary Arithmetic,pr month, $1,50
2nd C'ass—English Grammar, Geogra
phy and Arithmetic, per month, 2,00

The Gentile paper at Salt Lake says
that Brigham Young has started a bauk
there under anew method of doing busi
ness. The checks are made to read:
“To the credit of the Lord,’’ and if one
attempts to draw out his deposits he is
informed that Providence is not willing
to pay out any money just now. Money
banked under such a rule looks like a
permanent investment.

ALABAMA IMMIGRANT ASSOCIATION,
Montgomery, Alabama.
Read what the Montgomery city papers
that know the gentlemen, who are the mana
gers and incorporators of this Association,
have to say as to their reliability and honesty:
(From (he Daily Alabama Slate Journal.)
The American people are strictly a people
of fortune; they like to take a chance at a big
fortune for a miai’t sum of money. This scheme
affords them this opportunity. The first
award and the highest is $25,000. The low
est is ten dollars. The price of tickets is on
ly two dollars. When was such an opportu
nity presented to make a “pile” on such a
small investment ? The incorporators of the
Association are Julien Homans and Otto
Sclierf, Jr., of New York, and J. G. Stokes
and R. Greene, of Montgomery. For the
benefit of the public, wc will state that the As
sociation is perfectly solvent—the gentlemen
who compose it are of character and integri
ty, and we believe they will see to it that the
project is honestly and faithfully carried out.
( From the Montgomery Daily Mail.)
The inc- rporators are two well-known and
wealthy New Yothers, Messrs. Otto Sehetf, Jr ,
and Julien Homans, and Mess;s J. G. Stokes and
R. Greene, of Mon'gornerv. These genthmen
will faithftt lv carry out the designs of the nsso
ciatio >, which p oroses to give a series of mag
nificent entertainments, at the Gist of which m,e
hundred thousand dollars in currency will he
g ven away to bolde sos tickets, in Mims ranging
noni $lO to $25,000. The Company will open
their Mon'gornerv < ffice at mice.

Owing to a large number of our agents
failing to make returns in time, and to
the tickets not being all sold.the Grand
Raffle and Sale is postponed to the
26th of DECEMBER, 1870,
or sooner, if the tickets are all sold—
due notice of which will be given.
The Managing Agents return their
thanks for the liberal patronage bestowed
upon the enterprise, and respectfully so
licit a continuance of the same for a
short time, to complete the sale of all
the tickets. Let none hesitate to buy
tickets, for this is no New York hum
bug, but only gotten up to dispose of
property, and that by good citizens of
the county. On the day of the raffle,
the whole matter goes into the hands of
the six commissioners selected by ticket
holders, and not interested in the raffle
or in tickets, giving all an equal chance,
though absent, of drawing a prize.
Agents must make returns by the 20th
of December, or four days previous to
the raffle. Respectfully,
11. K. HICKS & CO.,
