PREAcHER rRErrxMAN.
Arrested for Embezzling Post Office
Funds.

Fun06.
To pick the pocket Of uuolel Sam 10 one Of
those iisils things that is being constantly done
and if the purloiner appropriates small sum
he is held to a strict account. but if he takes a
hundred thousand dollars he goes scot free and
Is styled clever fellow. But the way of the
transgressor is hard and he who sins against
light and knowledge, must not think his sine
will not find him out.
Our little town had first class sensation on
Monday morning over the arrest of Rev. Wesley
Prettyman, Postmaster at this place, for official
unfaithfulness and embezzlement of funds
The Post-ofice Department at Washington. for
long while has been noticing irregularities
and discrepancies in the reports that would
come in effecting the Marietta post-otice, and
Rev Mr.. Pretymsn was more than once re-
ported 10 Postmaster General Creswell, who IL
seems was an old schoolmate of Prettyman's
and who assigned him to the Office at this place
as token of his high regard and friendship,
aud so strong washis confidence in Prettyman's
honesty and integrity that he paid no attention
TO the reports preferred against him. But I'M
der Postmaster General Jewels administra-
ton, such discrepancies were not allowed and
he dispatched MIR. p. H. Woodward, special
agent, to look into the management Of the Ma
rietta post-ofice, and on coming to Atlanta he
swore out warrant for the arrest Of Pretty
man, and in company with United States Dep
uty Marshal, Geo. Chamberlain, came to Mari
eta ON Monday and demanded the books Of
the Postoiice, and upon examination there was
some six hundred dollars short, which Pretty
man could not account tor, and he was at once
arrested. Upon further investigation it was
discovered that Prettyman was in the habit of
issuing bogus money orders and drawing on
other offices under fctcous names and appro
priating the money to his own USE having on
the day Of his arrest drawn money on two bo-
gus orders On the post-office at Dalton. His
entire defalcaiion of money orders, etc, we
learn will amount to about one thousand dol
lars.
He was carried to Atlanta at IL o'clock that
day, and Judge Erskine bound him over in a
bond of So, 900 for his appearance at the Uni
ted States Circuit Court.
Mr.. Prettyman, is a Northern Methodist
preacher, an intense Republican of the Bishop
Haven school, and whose ultra sentiments rem
dersd him unpopular and distasteful to our peo-
pie His family is living in Indiana.
The post-ofice business is being attended TO-
by Geo. A. Fox, former clerk under Pretty
man and who has been exonerated from all
completely in the matter. John r.. Winters
Timothy Stephens and George A. Fox, were
the securities for Prettyman, who will see toits
management until new postmaster is appoint

ACwoRTH, Sept. 24th 1874.
AS the fire that occurred in this place last
week has already been reported in the jour
NAL, we will have little to say concerning it.
The man that grabbed frying pan, bread trey
and rat trap when he heard the alarm says he
was not excited in the least. 1t looks little
strange that he would leave his money and
valuable papers to look after these things
The verdict is be was awfully scared.
IT seems that Henry johnson (col.) and
his wife Mandy had little dispute about a
a piece of meat she was getting the best Of it
and he passed the coffee kettle over towards
her head, taking some OF her wool with it,
Now Mandy thought one good turn deserved
another and passed the kettle back to Henry,
having about the same effect ON his head Jas on
hers. Henry works out $3.50 worth and cost
on the street, while his wife is comforted with
the idea that she settled her bill with $500 and
cost.
Nav Cotton is being shipped from Ac-
worth nearly every day.
-WHAT is usually called the lumber train
was passing through this place day or two
ago when one ofthe hands who had been stand
ing by the depot tried to jumpon as it passed
him, his foot missed the step three successive
times, and he saw he would be killed il he
chung to the hand rails much longer and he at
once leaped clear of the train without Injury.

conversation with a gentleman who
has just returned from business trip
over the counties of Polk, Barlow,

counties ID almost unanimous-the

Hon. e. G. McAfee.

Hon. E. C. McAfee, of Forsyth,
whose name appears in our columns
as Democrtic candidate for Sena-
tor Of the 39th District, is sound
democrat, a worthy citizen and com
petent to do good service for his par
ty and the people Of his district in
the halls Of the Legislature. We
hope the voters Of Cherokee, For
syth and Milton, will poll a hand
some majority for him.
We understand that there is some
dissatisfaction in Cherokee on ac-
count of the action of the delegates
at the Calhoun convention, but their
action ought not have any effect or
influence in his race, as he is out of
this Congressional District and has
nothing whatever to do with the
canvass. Rally to Mr.. McAfee's
support andselect him.

Another revival commenced at

In view of the energy displayed
by Col. Howard, Superintendent,
the rapid progress Of the grading
and the early commencement Of
track laying on the Marietta & N.

McAfee, Joe Barton, and Kilby and

brick for the purpose Of building
several store houses, and that Joe
McAfee is going to build a large
hotel.
ALONG THE LINE.
Messrs. Ragsdale, Roach and
Camp offer to donate 40 acres of
land as site for q town and depot

The Cant of Impostors.

II is so obvious that physical and constitu-
tional vigor is the defense against disease, that
even the vendors Of drastic anrgatives advertise
them as tonics, stomachics and invigorants, in
the hope of enlisting the confidence Of the pub
lie in the devitalizing aud pernieious potions
II is amusing to note how these impostors imi-
tate and copy the language in which the medi
cinal properties Of Hostetters's Stomach Bitters
are described. Although the effect of their
rasping evacuants is to destroy the tone OF the
digestive organs and the bowels, and TO rob the
system Of its vital strength, they are unscrupu-
lously recommended to the weak and PROSTATE
victims Of disease as stimnlsats 1t is time this
