A Few Thoughts on the Situation.
Wc know full woll there exists ;it
pr oseut in the minds of the mass of
the Democratic voters of Gordon coun
ty a feeling of prejudice —almost of
bitterness—against nominations, yet wc
reel a deep interest in our county elec
tions and believe that the exigencies of
the times demand some means of organ
ization to sHrurc success. Democrats
need o-ot expect tat quibble among them
-«r!ves arid keep the Radical party out
•of power. It is well known that on
•the 11th of this month at a meeting
tield at the Court House delegates were
appointed in each militia district to
Yneet here on last Tuesday to determine
upon the mode of selecting a Democrat
ic candidate. Tuesday came, but a
quorum of such delegates appointed
were not present, consequently nothing
was done, and there the matter rests at
present, and a scrub race will naturally
follow, unless something shall change
the order of things. There are in Gor
don county about 1,500 voters —1,200
Democratic, 300 Republican. We be*
licTC this is about the proper estimate.
From the present outlook the Democra
cy will have about six candidates for
the Legislature, the Radicals one. Now
admit that the Democratic vote will he
equally divided among these six Dem
ocrats, and the Radical vote is all con
centrated on their one candidate, isn’t
the Radical elected? Where is our
remedy? Who of the Democratic
candidates will come down ? If the
Rem tcracy are still disposeJ to act
there is even time yet. Why not hold
a primary election ? Wo notice this
method of selecting candidates is pro
ving successful and satisfactory in other
counties of the State. We need ex
pect to accomplish nothing now or
hereafter without system and organiza
tion, it isn’t in the history of parties,
and if one time more than another, we
need now work in concert. Democrats,
ponder and act.
Third Grand Industrial Exposition at
Louisville.
The Third Grand Industrial ExposL
tion at Louisville, opens on the Ist day
of September and closes on the 17th day
of October. The invitation extended
to the of this paper, gives the
most flattering promise of the complete
ness and beauty of this third grand re
sult of Louisville energy and enterprise.
The art gallery will be on the largest
seal i, and embrace many of the great
est works of art in this couutry. In
the variety and general display of the
features that make up an Industrial Ex
position, we are promised an improve
ment on the two previous seasons, and
are satisfied that the visitor will find
himself richly repaid by a careful
spectiou of the thousands of evidence of
man’s inventive power, ingenuity and in
dustry. The natural history and oth
er scientific departments will be of the
widest interest to students and lovers of
the curious in natuio, and in extent and
variety, will be the largest* ever exhibL
ted.
llie railronds terminating in Louis
ville and all connecting lines, and all
steamboat lines will reduce their rates,
and will extend unusual privileges to
persons desirous of visiting Louisville du
ring the Exposition.
The natural beauty of Lousvillo in
September, the excellency and cheap
ness of her hotels, and the long dearth
of Binusemcnt in this part of the coun
try, will prompt many to tako a trip in
which they can combine both pleasure
and profit.

CARTERSVILLE ITEMS.
A young man by the name of Green,
from Atlanta, stopped at the Bartow
House in our city last week. lie ate a
heaity supper, went to his room and
wrote several letters, one of which he
had addressed to his brother in Macon.
The next morning he did not appear at
the breakfast table, and seemed to be
late getting np. The land'ady sent to
h : s room 'to ascertain the trouble, when
he was found speechless, and in a state
of stupor. The brother to whom the
letter was addressed vtas immediately
dispatched for and an answer obtained
to call in the best medical aid and give
him good attention, and it Was done
The brother and father arrived next
day in time to see him breathe his last
His father was a physician and said the
attack was heart disease.
Mr. Osborn Williams, of our city
died on Friday last rr.thet suddenly,
only living about 24 hours from the
time he was taken. He was about 40
years of age and leaves a wife and chil
dren. May God protect them.
A lady by the name of Ear wood, at
Bartow Furnace, 5 miles from the city,
was killed by lightning on Saturday
last. She was standing in her door and
a tree in the yard was struck, and she
was instantly killed. Some of her chil
dren were shocked also, but not serious
ty-
Do you suppose “ Kitty " would be
pleased to see “ Joab ” as an ‘‘ agent ?”
If so, prepare your “ label" and turn
him out and let him please somebody.—
Joab is very fond of “ beauty ” and as
ii has been so well “suited" by the
“ weather " it must be very luxuriant
by this time. So send me to the
“ show " —no, “ exhibition ” and what
else ? Good graoious what a name ! T
can’t spell it. So I will call it an “ ex
hibition ” and a “ stretch-him-Jini ”
and go on, so look out Kittie I am
“ meeting folks " but I can go in and
see the elephant and monkey.
We have had fine rains and turnip
seed are now in good demand.

Grand Jury Presentments.
We, the Grand Jurors sworn in for
the second week of Gordon county Su
perior Court, August term, 1874, make
the following presentments:
We have examined by our committee
the remainder of the tax books left by
former Grand Jury, and find that in
some five or six instances, we think the
property has not been given in at its
full valuation. We call the attention of
the Tax Receiver to this fact, and
hope he will take steps to correct the
error.
We recommend that the vouchers for
the year 1873, in the Treasurer’s office,
where settlements have been made, be
marked settled and returned to the
Clerk’s office and filed away.
We also recommend that the County
Commissioners have the public roads
properly posted and sign boards put up
as the law directs.
We further recommend tfrst a privy
be burlt in some suitable place for the
benefit of attendants of court.
We have examined the furniture, &c.,
lately procured for the Court llou3e
and find that the officers entrusted with
the care of purchasing the same have
exercised due economy. We still think
the Clerk’s office is not fully supplied
with a sufficiency of furniture.
We fully concur with former Grand
Jury in recommending that the School
Commissioners of the county, collect
from the State the amount due to our
county for the year 1871 and pay off
the claims of teachers for that year as
speed.ly possible.
We return our thanks to bis Honor
John W r . 11. Underwood, and fully ap
preciate the able manner in which he
has discharged his duty as presiding
Judge of this term.
We also thank the Solicitor General
A. T. Ilackett for his courtesies extend
ed to this body.
We recommend that these present
ments be published in the Calhoun
Times.

Sensible Words.
The New York Sun says: the people
at the North m iy imagine that they aie
not sufferers by the atrocious robberies
which have been perpetrated upon the
people of the reconstructed Sta tes by the
human vultures who have represented
the Administration there, receiving the
support and encouragement of President
Grant; but if they think so they are
greatly mistaken, for one part of the
United States cannot be brought to ru
in by niisgovcrnment and excessive tax
ation without the rest of the' country
suffering theieby in many ways. There
are many manufacturing cities and
towns in the Northern States whose fu
ture prosperity largely depends upon a
restoration of the Southern trade which
formerly gave employment to numerous
mechanics and factory operatives but
which has been greatly decreased or en
tirely lost owing to the impoverished
condition of the Sourthern people. Mill
ions of dollars in Southern State bonds
are held by Northern capitalists, whieh
yield no income because the funds of
these States have been stolen to enrich
corrupt politicians. And the failure of
such States to meet the interest on their
bonds held in Europe is proving ruin
ous to American credit abroad. The
present scarcity of money throughout
the country is owing, not to a lack of
currency sufficient to meet legitimate de
mands, but to the fact that the man
agement of public affairs in Washing
ton and iu most of the Southern States
has been corrupt and inefficient, the
great aim of those intrusted with the
highest powers having apparently been
to accumulate wealth for themselves,
their relations and their personal
friends, regardless of the interest of the
people at large. In order to afford il
legal gains to a comparative few persons,
the whole country is exorbitantly taxed,
and its best interests are mercilessly
sacrificed.
A Meteor Bursts Over Cairo.
Cairo, 111 , August 15, 18T4. —A
very large and remarkable meteor explo
ded near this city about one o’clock this
morning, causing a sensation from
which our citizens have not recovered
The explosion was terrific, shaking the
earth and the houses thereon, and im
pressing those who heard it with the be--
lief that a boiler had burst somewhere.
Windows were thrown open and night
cappcd heads thrust out. and passers
by in the street below subjected to a
searching cross-examination as to the
cause of the disturbance. There were
fortunately, many witnesses of the af
fair, else the phenomenon would have re
mained forever a mystery. At the hour
mentioned, the meteor, as large as tlie
moon and as brilliant as the sun, ap
peared in the northern sky, moving to
ward the horizon with lightning rapidi
ty, followed by a stream of fire. When
apparently near the earth it burst into
fragments, which in turn hurst into
smaller fragments, and tell like a myr
iad cf stars. For the space of nearl} 7
half a minute the city was brilliantly il
luminated. It was a glorious sight, the
grandest ever witnessed in this section
Cairo scientists are already searching
for pieces ofthe meteor. — Chicago Inter-
Ocean.
Tiie following, from the Dos Moines
(Iowa) Leader suggests a paralel that
could be spun out of indefinitely. Twen
ty years ago —when the country was
on the eve of the Nebraska excitement
and the Democratic party was so strong
that General Sdrelds said “ our greatest
danger is our strength ” —what a con
trast between the country that day and
to-day ! This-from the Leader :
“"Who’s peen her since Ts peen gone !”
The poor fellow to whom this pathet
ic inquiry is attributed, says an old
Democrat, could scarely have been more
shocked than the Democrats are at tire
changes wrought during their twenty
years absence. Such a thing as direct
taxation had never been heard of; now it
is a virtuous day that reveals nothing
of the sort. Our commerce was upon
every sea, with a fair prospect of ex
ceeding every nation of the world ; now
it is limited to a small coasting trade
Then we had a government of law, now
of party neerssity We had men in
ufhec ; we find block-heads, thieves and
tricksters now.
Verily, “ Who peen here we’ve been
gone !"
Horrible Indian Crime.— Oma
ha, August 12, 1874.—A shocking
murder accompanied by torture was
perpetrated in a lonely spot in Colfax
county, in this State, on- Sunday. A
number of Indiana supposed to be Paw
nees, camped near a homesteader’s cab
in, and two squaws went out in search
of food. They came to the house when
the man was absent, and went through
it, in spite of the wife’s remonstrances.
Finally they attempted to take atvay
the family provisions, to which the wife
objected. The two squaws beat her
over the head. Just then the husband
came in, and seeing his wife wounded
took his gun and shot one of the squaws.
The other squaw ran to the Indian
camp and reported what had been done.
Twelve of the In ians then entered the
h&use, captured the homesteader, skin
ned him, cut his hands off and his
heart out. This was done in the pres
ence of his wife. A large party of
pursuers has left West Point in search
of the Indians, but it is almost certain
that they will not find them.— World.
The question for a belle and the
foreman of a newspaper office ; How
shall I make up my form ?
The Failure of Popular Government, j
The Cincinnati Gazette says that “no
people in the world have so little re- 1
spect for their Government as the peo
ple of the United States." Certainly
no administration of that government \
ever deserved so little respect bet to ;
the principles and tiie pure practices of
a Democratic republican government, j
from which wo have wandered far and
long, the people will renew their devo- i
tion in the coming fail elections.
“ What prospects has a government
for perpetuity which the people despise?
How can the sentiment of patriotism
exit>t without respect for the govern
ment ? What is there to rally the peo
ple against either external or internal
danger, when they have no government
which they think worth saving ? Is
not general disgust with the govern
ment the always ready opportunity for
the coming man on horseback ?’’
“In the civil wai there was a great
section in which our white enimies held
those We called our black friends in
subjection. The muddling of recon
struction by State rights theories, An-,
drew Johnson’s perfidy, the uprising of
the Confederate leaders in the hope of
regaining power, and the apparent ne
cessity created by all this to give the
emancipated blacks the means of self
protection, bjfought the conferring of
governing power on near a million of
men of a race degraded in their native
country, and degraded here by ages of
slavery "
“ Our politicians said they would
know enough to vote for their own
friends. Here was the party gain that
is always uppermost in these s:jokes of
State. They said also they were as ca
pable of voting as a large class of the
foreigners we had made voters. This
was true enough, and it shows how one
step of degradation furnishes the lever
for another. No one thinks it worth
while to stop at anything. In fact, no
one thinks we have anything in ttic
government worth preserving, save the
chances of a party in it. At the last
session the House passed a bill to erect
New Mexico into a State, with a voice
in the Senate to neutralize that of Ohio,
Yet it has-uot 10,000 English-speaking
inhabitants, and is a mixture of Mexi
cans, Indians and negroes, with scarce
ly any of the conditions of civilization.
The House said the same with the wild
Territory of Colorado. These are the
doings of a people who have lost all re
spect for their government. It is much
worse in local government, for there the
scalawag, the hummer, the adventurer,
whose trade is to degrade, are preferred
for public trusts to the best citizens. —
Government in America is a thing of
public contempt. The great republic,
which has bragged over the whole world
as being the best government the sun
shines on, presents the strange specta
cle of a government whose people have
no respect for it."
The fears of the Gazette are not justi
fied because too many thousands of
those who share its opinion will not be
hindered by their past party relations,
from voting to transfer the Government
to the hands of better men and the gui
dance of better principles, than those in
which they now see their confidence
have been misplaced.— World.
Election Riot in Kentucky.—
Louisville, Ky., August 5.—A Courier-
Journal dispatch says that a fight oc
cured at a small village in Clark county,
Ky., on election.day, in which two white
men were killed, two negroes mortally
wounded, and fifteen negroes more or
less wounded. The fight began at the
polls.
r i ft e Texas Legislature lias passed an
act granting a pension of $l5O a year
to the survivors of the revolution which
separated Texas from Mexico, and $l5O
more to such as are disabled by loss of
sight or limb ; the pension to be paid
only to such as have not sufficient prop
erty for their support without the aid
