MARIETTA,
The Ideal Place for Cotton
Mills.
ABSOLUTELY FREE FROM MALARIA
Steam Coal F. 0. C. Cars in Marietta
S1.75 per Ton. Equable eli.
mate and Freestone Water.

There is 10 question but what
Northern and Eastern factories
must come South, and even now
there. are parties in the South rep
resenting Eastern factories looking
tor locations to establish cotton fac
tories. We believe Marietta is the
ideal place for such enteI prises.
We have many favorable conditions
and advantages that ought to conf"
mend themselves to thinking busi-
ness men on this line.
Marietta is favorably situated,
just twenty miles from Atlanta, on
the Western & Atlantic Railroad,
and the terminus of the A. K.
& N. Railway that reaches to
Knoxville, Tenn, and Murphy, N.
c.; it is also at the foot Of the Blue
Ridge Hills, in the Piedmontregion,
and at the base Of kennesaw Noun
tain ; is 1135 feet above the level of
the sea, with remarkably dry atmos.
phere, making it the most delightful
climate the year round to be found
in the United States. Mean sem.
perature-winter, Is; spring, 60;
summer, Is; autumn, 62. Average
annual mean temperature, 81. Alb
solutely free from malaria. The air
is pure and bracing, full of ozone;
no excessive heat in summer, no ex-
treme cold in winter. Many peo'
pie have come here with throat and
lung troubles and have gone away
cured or greatly relieved.
Marietta is in the center of what
has been called the "Banner Coun~
ty'' of the state. Ten to fifteen
thousand bales of cotton are sold
here annually. The cotton is of
superior quality, mostly handled
by small white farmers; je is unusu-
ally free from dirt or trash. A cot.
ten mill, owning its own gins, could
buy two or three thousand bales of
cotton during the season in the seed,
saving the profits on ginning and
weight on bagging and ties.
| Cotton can be had here from one.
eighth to three. sixteenths less than
in Atlanta. The freight on the
products Of cotton mills eau be ship.
ped North, East, West or South at
the same rate of freight as from At
lanta. Good steam coal can be de-
livered here at s1.75 per ton. Any
quantity Of native help can be OBJ
tanned that with little training
can do first class work.
Marietta is prohibition town,
consequently quiet one, with $500
population. 1t has four good church.
es, splendid system Of public
schools, two banks with ample cspi>
tai for the present needs Of the
place, and ready to increase if the
demand requires it. The city is
lighted with arc and incandescent
electric lights, and has fine system
of waterworks. Marietta has two
chair factories, two planning mills,
machine and stove factory, a large
new paper mill and batting factory,
creamery, carriage shop, an i'm.
mense marble mill and several
marble shops, hosiery mill, two
hotels, etc.
Parties desiring to locate cotton
mills or other manufacturing indus.
tries in the South would do we'll to
come to Marietta and look over the
ground before locating. Our I'D.
vantages will be appreciated when
fully investigated.

In Memory of Albert II. Allen.

The subject of this sketch Was born and raised near Lucia. Drew county, Ark where he continued to reside with his parents until he reached his majority. Ile died u Wilmar, Dee. 3rd, 1867, aged sl years, 3 months and 1a da4s.
 His educational advantages were limited, but realizing the impaf= tanee of an education he left the parental roof and entered the school just opened at Nilmar, to cultivate and develop his naturally brilliant mind. His manly deport- ment, diligence and obedience soon won the respect and esteem of his teachers. Though his stay at Nilnar Was brief, his amiable disposition, polite and courteous manners had drawn around him Il host of admiring friends. His general health had not been good for some time before he was strick- en down by severe attack of swamp fever.
 As soon as his friends realized his critical condition they sum moned physician and his parents to his bedside, and all that medi- cal skill and loving friends could do for him was done, but the at tack was too violent for his con stitution, and he calmly yielded to the inevitable and went 10 his re- ward.
 He bore his sickness with re- markabIc patience and fortitude He called his mother to him and asked her if the doctors thought they had broknen the fever, and after receiving negative answer, he replied s'I know they have not, mamma, but don be excited 1 am not.
 His father had returned home for the younger members of the family when he expressed desire to see them; but t was too late. He had breathed his last before his fathers return.
 will not ask you, dear parent, and relatives, not to grieye not sorrow, for it Is natural that ysu should but look to God fol strength and comfort. He alone can bind up the broken heart.
 Dearest Albert thou hast Jeff Us
 And our loss We deeply feel
 But lis God that hath bercfl as=
 He can all our sorrows heal
 Yet again. we hope to meet thee
 When this weary life is fled
 And in Heaven with joy to greet thcc,
 Where no farewell tears arc shed.
