Death of Maj. Rowland
   The community was startled this morning to learn that Major John S. Rowland, Superintendent of the Western & Atlantic Railroad died last night of a very severe attack of diarrhea, after a very short illness, his attack being on Wednesday last. He was a highly respectable and useful citizen of Bartow county, and has been Superintendent of the State Road since the resignation of Dr. Lewis. His acquaintance is very extensive, by all of whom his demise will be deeply regretted.
