Some clever gentleman kindly relieved
us of a hat on the day of the Fair. It
was no swap either; at lease, we could
find no one in place of the missing one.
Well, stranger, it cost us about four dol
lars, but it was a long time ago. Your
acquisition is not a very valuable one.

has been found. Everybody, therefore

got anew one, feel as lively as a Scotli

I p tlie River.
On our jaunt up the Coosawattee riv
er last we<?k, the firsts place of interest
reached was Newtown, which was the
site of the capital of the Cherokee na
tion. Col. Cantrell, who was with us.
manifested great interest in familiarizing
us, as it were, with the manners, cus
toms &c., of this peculiar people. We
listened, absorbed, to the detailed ac
counts he gave us of the joys of those hap
pier days of our young Republic, when
the red man roamed through the forest
in the wißrd simplicity of his nature. —
Newtown is about four and a half miles
northeast of Calhoun, near the junction
of the Coosawattee and Conesauga riv
ers, and is now noted only as the tradi
tional government site of the brave CHer
okees. Mr. Bonner, who lias been a res
ident of the county but about two years,
now owns the valuable farm about
Newtown and the fork of the rivers,
having purchased it from Mr. Dennis
Johnson, who had erected upon it a
splendid residence. The lands therea
bouts are in a fine state of Cultivation,
and show the superior managing skill of
their proprietors. Having taken a gen
eral survey of the locality, as it was in
our way, selected for the future bridge,
so much needed, across the Coosawattee,
we continued our journey through the
forest and swamp, along town creek,
like pioneer cavalrymen, until we fell
into the main road leading from Calhoun
to Fields’ mill. Along this road; wo
had to pass through a section of coun
try denominated “ Dry Valley,” which
we had been inclined to consider an un
desirable, uninhabitable and almost un
inhabited, barren waste. It is not so.
There is good land in Dry Valley, far
superior in productiveness to thousands
upon thousands of acres we have seen
elsewhere, upon which good livings are
made. The farms, which we think
specially merit notice, as evidencing a
degree of energy, industry and thrift
never excelled, were those belonging res
pectively to Wm. Roarch, Andy Bor
ders, John Ellis and S. R. Iley. We
hope that Autumn from her cornu-copia
may over fill their granaries.
The sun was now nearing the zenith,
arid Col. Cantrell suggested and we
heartily seconded, going on to Mr. Jas.
Cantrell’s for dinner- “Jim” lives near
the mouth of Saliquoy, owns a splen
did farm, is sole occupant of a fine house,
and blessed with a superabundance of
good things of life, and yet, we’ll ven
ture to say, lie is not happy. lie was
not at home. We were not yet, howev
er, forlorners in pursuit of dinner; it
was but a little way to our highly es
teemed fellow-citizen. Mr. Willingham’s,
and on the road thither we almost for
got our physical demands, in the feast
of vision. There lay before us with
outline indistinct in the distance, the
broad, rich bottom lands of the Coosa
wattee and Saliquoy, that will rival any,
in any country, in point of exuberant
productiveness. What a vast acreage of
tlie finest growing crop of corn, we ever
saw, almost in a single body !
“Man God made, and for him built
Magnificent this world.”
We turn in to Mr Willingham’s anil
after a brief rest, we were prepared to
do, and did do ample justice to the sub
stantials and dainties prepared for din
ner by Mrs. W. The crops here com
pared favorably with any we saw, and
indeed we were shown a cotton patch by
Mr. W., which surpassed anything in
that line we saw. Our sojourn was nec
essarily brief, and we -were soon en route
to Fields’ mill, or where the mill once
stood, it having been recently burned
down. It was one of the best flouring
mills in North Georgia, the original cost
of its erection having boen, wc are in
formed, about $16,000. Here is an el
ligible site for machinery of any de
scription, requiring water power. The
water power is immense—almost incal
culable—and the ease with which it
may be turned to account, converted to
use, renders the place one of the most
valuable, if not the most valuable in
Cherokee Georgia.
At tuis point on the river, it was the
desire of many to have erected the
bridge, which was recommended by the
Grand Jury at the last term of the Su
perior Court, and which was subsequent
ly located at Newtown by commissioners
appointed for the purpose, and about
which there has been considerable Con
troversy, and now that a quietus is put
to the matter, for the present at least, we'
propose to say nothing about it.
M e were now at Dr. Borders’ who
joined us, and showed us through his
growing corn, which was superb. A
fact we deem here worthy of mention,
is that ihe Doctor should have such a
splendid prospect, on so large a scale,
wholly under the control and direction
ot a colored overseer, Bob Byrom,which
speaks well ioi* Bob, and will commend
him to good men everywhere, if he will
persevere in well doing.
But the sun is hastening to his repose
in the Occident, and we must hurry on.
We called on, our substantial fellow citi
zen and friend. Judge Harlan, who is
ahead ot the country,in the oonvonjeuces
and comforts of homehis residence,
is genuinely palatial. We regretted the
apptoaehing shades of night forced us
to forego the pleasure it would have af
forded us to have gone over his farm.—
Verily, the people up five river are su
premely blessed-.
The Fair on Tuesday was a complete
success, The entries, exhibition and
numbers in attendance faf exceeded the
expectations of the most sanguine.—
Space forbids, or we would have much
to say aKnit many articles umj things
specially deserving meritorious notice.
The report, however/of the entries, pre
miums &c., which appears in another
column, will be found ample. Every
thing is encouraging to the efforts made
by the Agricultural Society to build up
the substantial interests Os our count}’.
The beginning, though experimental,
promises splendid results. We hope
for an earnest and continued support,
and an abundant future prosperity for
the embryo attempts to get the monthly
Fair properly on its legs
At 3 o’clock, P. M. Col. Barnett, of
Wilkes county, refreshed the guests—
who wefe riow changed irito aft expect
ant audience—with an elaborate an I
practical discourse upon the subject of
Agriculture. We have reason to hope
that the result of his visit and address
will prove eminently beneficial, in that
there will be given a fresh impetus to
the growing interest in agricultural so
cieties.
We have a country not excelled in
fertility of resources. An active exercise
of brain and muscle is all that is necessary
to its developement. Educated,intelligent
labor will accomplish wonders. An in
terchange of ideas among the farmers of
communities will bring about great good.
Deep ploughing and thorough tillage
will make old mother Earth’s products
miraculously abundant. What are the
means by which desirable ends are to be
attained, especially in agriculture ? We
conceive that the legitimate starting
point is in the organization of district
clubs, a liberal patronage of the agri
cultural press and a persistent use of
brain and muscular power. Then let
organizations of this kind be encour
aged. Don’t grow tired, and the day is
riear at hand wberl our naturally beauti
ful country will blossom as the rose, our
waste places will be built up, and in a
word, old things will have passed away,
and all things will have become new.
A Card,
Mft. Editor : —I deem it proper to
insert in this issue of your excellent
family newspaper, the reason why tlie
Coosaivattce bridge was not let out on
Tuesday. It was solely on account of
the financial condition of the county,
and the complete failure of the wheat
and oats crops of said county; and noth
ing else; for we believe the said bridge
ought to be built as soon as it can be
done without putting the county in
debt. D. W. Neel, Ordinary.
The Third Quarterly meeting, of the
Methodist Episcopal Chureli South, will
be held in this place, commencing on
Friday evening before the second Sun
day of July, inst. All visitors will be
provided for by the citizens of town.
In our next issue will appear a school
notice from Prof. G.S. Fulton. As the
time is now near at hand for the re
sumption of exercises in the Calhdun
Academy, under his wise supervision,
parents and guardians would do well to
consider the superior inducements pre
sented here for the acquisition of a prac
tical education.
To SHIPPERS of grain and produce
of all kinds throughout ti>is section, we
would specially commend the firm of
