Wo le«ru that erope are mate rift Uy injured in Polk county, from the drouth. Much of the ooru is nearly ruined, and the cotton greatly damaged. The Fort Gainea Mirror says : We hear of l>ut little complaint about oro|«. The fodder has !>een gathered, and now the planters are turning their attention to gathering the sta ple, which is opening quite rapidly. A 42 pouud Opoesum baa been caught iu Sumter oonnty If the public don’t believe what the iiepublican auy» about it, wo sup- \toss, as proof, the scales ou which it was weighed oan be seen. The steamer Fry lett her wharl iu Bain- brnlge ou the Jlat, bound for Columbus, with a heavy freight. Just seven miles below Fort Gaines at Weems’ Shoals, a very narrow and dangerous poiut on the river, she struck a rock and sunk. The Augusta Chronicle A Sentinel learns that the Sweet Water Baptist Church, near l hompsou, Ga., under the pastoral oare of llev. E. A. Steed, haa had a most interesting revival. During the meeting there were forty-two accessions to the Church, acd over fifty conversions. The Homo Commercial says ; “One of our .subscribers informed us yesterday, that he had sufficient rain Friday night to drip from the eves of his house. It being the only one m three mouths that would lay the dust, he seemed to be perfectly happy, and dated at the idea that tne holes through which the rain falls ou his plantation were not plugged up. Tho Savannah Republican, iu speaking of some specimens of tho now rice crop which it has seen, says . Somo of the heads are nearly a foot in length, the seed are well filled out \nd very beavv, aud in all respects wo should rate the article A No. 1. Our planters ore luut commencing to cut, and in a few days we shall to able to give something like an ap proximation to the crop. The grasshoppers, we le&ru, have not committed the serious depredations on the Savannah river fields that were at ono time apprehended Messrs. Hardeman A Sparks, of Macon, iu addition to the premiums offered by the Ex ecutive Committee at tho approaching State Fair, will give the following either in plate or currency, as may bo desired: Best ten bales upland cotton, 560 00; bettl five bales upland cotton, $30 00, best one bale upland cotton, 510 00; best five bales long staple from green .seed, $40 00; best one bale long staple from green seed, $10 00. The cotton to bo delivered at their ware house, to be transported to aud lrom tho Fair Grounds by them, free of charge. Five judges will be selected, one from each *.t the following cities; Savannah, Augusta. Columbus, Albany aud Macon, who shall de termine upou and award the same. The Sparta (Hancock county) Journal says: Nt-ver within oar reoollt-ction have wo seen such disastrous effects of slight drouth upon the cotton crop. The dry. hot weather has literally i«nched it np already in many places, and every day adds fresh injury. Iu some lo calities, rain enough has mlleu to sus- t; in tb<- crop, hot the buffering has been •plito general. Manured cotton has, of course, offered mori. We give as onr opinion that in no event, can we expert more than two- thirds of ii crop for the county, wlrilo somo few planters will make an average oue. In <»nr judgment, tho rust itself has done but littlo damage. The greatest damage is at tributable to the want of moisture. Wo have had no cloy wetting rains tor many months. Superficial showers have been speedily evap orated by the hot sun, and tho tender plant has been left to languish aud throw off its heavy crop of leaves and forms. The damago is irrci•arable. The plant is too uinch ex hausted and tho period too late for tho re covery of the crop, whatever the season here after. It hucU is the condition of the crop elsewhere, we may expect good prices again this season, in spite of all tho efforts to lower Fmosal. A. II. Stephens is still maintaining the tight of a State to secede from the Union. Anna Dickinson, on close inspection, dou’t like the Chinese. J. Rosa Browne denounces Burlingame's policy, and considers it an evidenco ol the Chinese disinclination for progress. Pliny Jewell, father of Governor Jewell, is dangerously ill, and it is thought he cannot recover. President Grant submitted to the usual routine of speeches and handshaking at Con cord, and expressed his regret that ho could not itay longer among the granite hills. Father McMahon will, at an early day, pro ceed to Washington and recount his wrongs to the Cabinet, and demand damages for false imprisonment from the Canadian Govern ment. Finance ana Industry, The steamer Ci.y oi Mexico, from Vera Crus, has arrived at New York. It in estimated that the value of hoots and shoes manufactured in Massachusetts the present year will amount to over $93,000,000. Tho bhocmakers' strike in Newark, N.

Hultort and Governor Bullock would accompany and lx: of the party of excursion ists, the Savannah News says: We cannot credit the above statement. 1 as onr opinion is of “Jiharr>-nnd-Quick," cannot believe that he would be guilty of such an outrage upon thu genUi-meii compnsiug the excursion |»rly who have MMumblud in Atlanta in ruanonse to bis invitation. While on tho excursion they are hh guests, aud it would be a breach not only of lioiqiitality hut decency for him to permit tin intrust u upon them or an individual whom tL* ii own self- respect would not petiuit them to recognise a* a gentleman. Ttis prcacnon of Hwayxe is bad enough, but Bullock udd.-d would be it. supportable. Here is an imputation upon each membe of the press who accompanied the exonrsion no lam than a lib'I upon the (lovi rimr of tlio Htatr.

IKK MAW BRA. iu Psit —< r slars-PrlM •/ Mwksrrlg ttam Increased, ste. The aonouMtuisut was made in the Ema df Sunday morning that the rates of subscrip tion on the Daily had been raleed from five to ten dollars per annum. This was done in mere justioe to onraelvea, and In accordance of the paper was first reduced. There is now in the SUta bit one paper as large as the Eea, aud vary few that are aa handsomely printed. Ths qoaatHy of reading matter has been greatly increased from what It was dor ing the doll months of the eommer, and oui intention Is to dally present such improve ments as will make the paper all the more ac ceptable to tbo general reader. It will be r ♦wnw paper, presenting "lb© age and body of the time" in a oompact aud clearly printed space, divesting the nutter of all unnecessary drapery, aud proscutiug the naked news with out flourish, but aucoinotly and oomprehou sivoly. The great want of the people now, ia to know what is going on in the world. This hunger for intelligence we propose apjxjuaiug by oondensing the matter iu the smallest pos sible' space, and presenting tacts without oth er adornment thao.the uiera quantity of lan guage necessary for their statement. The progress of the Ena, since coming un der its preseut management, has been up-hill. It has had to encounter such a weight of op position and prejudice aa has rarely over con- fronted any journal Bat it has withstood all, and has managed to survive the anftaUy ot friends and tho open hostility of foos. It ha* survived the whole, aud is to-day upon a firm er footing than it has ever been, aud better calculated to enlighten and instruct the poo- pie. Of course we are thankful for the favors wu have received in the past. Many friends have stuck to ns "through evil and good report" Thin number has been swelled to a formidable phalanx, and the numbor is steadily increaing. Hence the paper may bo said to have arisen above any ordinary emergency, and to have approached the diguity of being one of the established institutions of the State. The ordeal through which It boa passed bos taught it a lesson of determination wbioh will not soon be forgotten. We have diviued the fact that a steady perseverance iu what is conceiv ed to be right and just, will bring its rewards in the end. We do not indulge the vain braggadocio of having the largest city or State circulation. Such things are empty sounds, tinkling cym bals aud voin boostings, meant to deceive tho public, and elicit patronage under false colors. But if advertisers want to understand the truth of the matter, our subscription books aro open for inspection, and we are al ways willing to abide by the truth of their record. Wo believo wo have as large a sub scription list os any paper in the State, and acting upou this belief, we invite advertising patronage, believing that it will receive in re turn an ad valorem upon all that is invested. Within the past few weeks the Eba has been greatly improved in nppearauce as well as in the quantity of its matter. We repeat, there is now but one other sheet in the State as large, and few, if any, that publish the same amount of readable reading matter. What the Eua now’ is, is but an oarncst of what wo mean to rnako it. Tbo quantity of mAtter will be increased. nnJ such other improve ments bo added ns will make tho paper more acceptable and more serviceable to tho general reader. Our people have been poor, ami wo have sought to accommodate ourselves to their circumstances ; but, through tho iuter- vruti-m of Providence, their condition has been changed. Thu earth has yielded Ixuinti- ful harvests, and tho people iu the country are beginning to fed their old time inde pendence and prosperity. Hence wo do not seo further occasion to bow to tho mandate of "hard times,” and have pnt the subscription price of tho paper up to liviug rates, aud mean to abide by thorn. This change, however, dons not apply to the weekly paper. This wo will continue to publish at tho very low rut< »-f ltcodollnr.1 per annum, making it, at tin* same time, on© of the Urgent mid noatoRt papers iu the South. It is printed early iu the week, so ns to runch tho most distant subscribers in the State by Saturday, bearing with it all the latest current news. As stated Sunday morning, tho terms of the Daily Eua will be: One year $10 00 Six months 5 00 Three months 3 00 ic month 1 00 This is as low as the cheapest daily in the State, and at that rate does not much more than pay for the blank paper on which it is printed. We submit the terms to the public, believiug that no diminution of subscription will be occusaioned; but, on tho contrury, wo will retain all we have had heretofore, and secure enough that is new to continue the subscription list a.uoog the largest iu the State. t Itnncrllnr Llpirnmb, This able, learned and distingniidiod gen- man left Atlanta for his home in Athons by the 5 o'clock truiu yesterday evening. Tho Doctor takes with him the kind regards and deep affections of our people. Wo bop© that he may live long and that his glorious shad ow may never grow less. The I>rt !•!•» of Jadft MCrnklno— An Im portant ( aic Met at Rest. The d< cision of Hon. Judge Erskine, Judge lot the United Status Diatrict Court, in the matter of Meador A Brothers, ia oue of great importance as settling an issue of luw touch ing tho authority of tho Supervisor of Internal Revenue under a provision of the Act of Con gress of .July 20th, 18G8. In tho cose under review (he Supervisor of internal Revenue, for tho States of Florida and Georgia, issued a hunimons against each of the members of the Arm of Moador A Brothers, Dealers iu To- bucco, in Atlanta, Georgia, under a provision contained in tho 49th section of the Act of fougroNs of July ‘JO. 1808, requiring thorn to appear In-fore him, ut his office, at a certain lline, and hi testify under oath, and to pro duce their IsKiks, |*Hp«-tn, Ac., relating to any bn*hien* trameicted by or throngh them, from the 20th July, lHfiH, to 1st July, lHIJO. The parties were duly sorved but failed to appear or to produce their books, before tho super visor He then isada application to Judge Erskine in pursuance of a provision contained in the 9th Section of the Act of July 13, 18(U1 14 StAts. 102—for an attachinont against the MeaHora. But, before it Was issued they vol Qutartly appeared; an attachment nisi was granted and timo given to them to show cause why It should not bo made absolute. Gu the return day, they appeared and by their coun sel, (initrail and Lochrune, placed their de fense ou fllo. It is ill aubstauce, as follows: First, That so much of the act of inly, 18(18, grants authority to a supervisor to compel poisons to testify and to produoo their books, fie., in au imaginary case, ia unconstitutional and void. HeeonU, U constitutional, still the saner- viaor can Only proceed to compel the pfodnr- tion of liooks, fio., In tbo name manner and to —Mine extunt ae resuseors ©an do ; awl that neither “sen compel persons to testify mid produce their books, fio,, in in imaginary o*ho against parties residing out of their «Ha- t riots.* Third, That the 49th section of the act authorising tlio supervisor to summon any of pfiftiabtueu! uuu be rendered in a case before the judge, for disobeying a summons to appoar before a supervisor, as the act "direota that no order can h© Issued inconsistent with existing Uws for the punishment of contempts, and bv for contempt, except as against violations of ita own orders. ” Fifth, That tho powers here olaimed by the supervisor "era jodtoial powers, aud that the judiciary ia expressly fixed by the Con stitution and previously existing lawn - neither aKResaors nor supervisors forming any part of it." At the opening of the proceedings, tho United States District Attorney read a latter of instructions from the Commissioner of In ternal Revenue to the Supervisor, the eub- Htauoo of whioh was as follows ; The substanco of the loiter was, that cer tain officers of tbe IntcrnalTtevenue Depart ment had bum in Georgia, examining with reference to the affairs ot certain doclers iu tobaooo, snuff, Ac., whose factories in Vir ginia and North Cnroliua had been seixed, and that the assessor at Atlanta was instructed to procure information from agonts of tho tobac co houses in question, which it was necessary to Uso in connection with the cases in which tho officers referred to were engaged. He is thou instructed to obtain from the books, Ac., of these agents,--whose names would be fur nished to him by the said assessor—the infor mation needed by tho aaid officers, aud for ward it to them, at Richmond, Virgiuia. Tho decision of tho Court austainod tho Bu- per visor, and it wee ordered, after an elabor ate and able investigation of the law an J the circumstances, that the Messrs. Meador ap pear, iu obedience to the summons of the Su pervisor, aud answer under oath, touohing the receipt, storage, delivery or sale by their firm, botweeu the 20th day of July, 18C8, and the 1st day of July 1869, "of any and all tobacco which came to their possession, or under their control in the way of business, during Raid period. Aud, also, that they, at the same time, producu to the said supervisor all books and papers of Baid firm, specified in said summons, which contain any entry, statement or communication touchiug or iu any tnauner relating to tobacco.” The investigation by the able and learned Judgo coverod tho whole ground iu dispute, and was quite exhaustive of the authorities bearing upou the merits of the oase. Wo regret our ability, owing to tho pressure upon our col umns, to give this able decision entire; as our opinion, there are few judicial investi gations on record that surpass it for its copi ous learning, methodical arrangement and cogency of reasoning. It settlos au impor tant question of law which had been sprung uffectiug the authority of Revenue officials, and of tho constitutionality of tho law of Con gress under which this authority was claimed. TUB EXCl'USIOKISTS. Irrlvat ut Rome— Home—Trip tlowu the Coosa—Kouml Mountain Iron Works— Cornwall Iron Work*—Col. Halbert talks Railroad. COBUCSVOMDEMCK Rome, Ga., August 30, 18C9. On our arrival at tho seven-hilled city, we were hospitably cutcrtuined by tho city ot Romu.|After an excellent dinner at the Choice Hotel, wo took the bout for the Round Moun tain Iron Works. At the table wo were wel comed by the energetic and wide-awake May or ot Rome, (JoL Z. Ii. Hargrove, whoso lath er was one of tho founders ol' Rome. Zack, is the worthy son ot an honorable lather. Romo, like Atlanta, is enjoying tho fostering euro ot a young Mayor, who seems to bo alivo to her best development. We took tho tour of Rome, in company with an old Roman, who acted the agreeable, as ho well know* how. Wo saw most ol th« city aud wore agreeably disappointed. Rome far oxeoedod our expec tations. It is a beautiful city, and capable of being mad© the handsomest city of Georgia. Us native shade trees, of magnificent growth; its grand eminences, made on purpose for grautl mansions ; its «xceltent river advanta ges; its location m tho midst of u splendid farming country, with valuable minerals all around; its lively and active people, more liko Atlanta than any we havo kioq (and that is superlative in its moaning,) will make Romo always a flourishing place, ami soon a large oitv. Romo is now growing very fast. It is fast becoming to bo a manufacturing city. We visited Noble's Iron Foundry, whore are being mado cor wheels and axles, and various things of smaller sorts aud larger. The Nobles aud their partners havo nearly completed a rolling mill, nail factory, and will soon bo working two or throo hundred hands. Such men will soon make Rome, in population, rival tho Im perial City. Romo has voted for water works. Uome has a glorious future. We went down tho Coosa ou Friday after noon and night. The Coosa is a splendid river. Our boat carries 180 tons, larger than now runs at Chattanooga. Wo hauled up near tho ruins ot Round Moun tain Iron Works, a valuablo property, not yet rebuilt. It felt severely the effects of our late unpleasantness. Ou our return, we stopped at tho Coruwall Iron Works. The Nobles and some Pennsylvania capitalists aro tho pro prietors. They gave the press gang uu excel lent barbecue, aud all went merry as a mar riage bell. The Cornwall works now make mostly pig iron, and aro doing well. On Saturday night, wo gatliored on the boat, the press, and wore addressed by Col. Ilulbert, who made an excellent railroad ad dress, which was well received. He was fol lowed by Charles Wallace Howard, who made a fine effort. The addresses of both gentle men will bo published, and will bo road with interest. The best ot feeling prevails, and nearly all tho party will go down into Alabama on Mon day. The proprietors of tho Etowah titled to our thanks for our trip on the Coosa, whioh has cost them not less than $500. Some of our Atlanta boys, oar youth ful Mayor aud Sol. Green, started for home from Chattanooga, bnt wore arrested, and not being able to givo bail, aro still along, and will not be disohargod till tbo end of our journey, us they aro universally popular, aud can’t be spared. More anon. Financial Policy of tli« Administration. Thus far in his Administration of tho Gov eminent President Grant has not net forth, in an official form, the policy by whioh he is governed when acting upon fiscal affairs. This ultoiuuco cauuot reasonably bo ex pected prior to tho mooting of Coug December next. In his Annual Message, and In tho report of tho Secretary of tho Treasury, we may expect to nee a clear aud full iluvulopmont ot the policy of the P dent ; and iu tho snhHeqncnt nets of Congress that policy will be aided, strengthened, au ' perhaps, modified. In the meantime tho ucU of thu Adiuiui (ration mat Jus us to form decided views of its polioy and in tun lions. First, thu Presi dent evidently intend* to pay off tho "Five- twenties” as rapidly as be may in gold. Sec ondly, in order to bu able to rnaku this (xiy- uiuiit soon, the President is laboring to large ly appreciate tho credit of the Government;— he iH struggling to lift its securities to tho lev el of the securities of the wealthiest Euro- pean States. When this end is measurably attained, the President will bo nblc to nego tiate a loan at {sir in gold, at 1 or 4 J per cent, with tho proceeds of which to nay off twclv. or fiflseii hundred millions of thu public debt; thus, by a mors saving in tlio rate of tutureRt, lessening our atimioi pRyments of interest, in gold. $25,0tMk000 or $30,000,000. Thirdly, to ntinble him to hnlld up the Govurnmcnt credit and l< Mien the interest upou thu pQblio debt, thu Proftiileut haa sedulously aud with siK-cusa labored to oollsol tbs revenues with out loss or waste, aud with less expense; also to introduce a rigid economy into every branoh of the pnbliu service. Great Havings have been realised in the Military and Treaanrv branches ; creditable savings in tjm Htato aud Interior /iepHrinienU havo lieou effected, and constderablu savings are hoped from tlio Navy aud Poatofllce. Ho far aa tho current movements of the Treasury aro concerned, until tho crops are moved, it is not likely Treasury gold will be Mold for currency too© looked un. Ths «n- tirs surplus ot cuirsnoy ia ths Traaanry, on the contrary, will Im employed in the pur- cbano of lionds as heretofore, that money may lie abundant and cheap at the time crops are to to paid for and movad by transjiortars to market. it may to that forthar pur chases of 1Kinds will Fx> made direotly with donars, Die President frill not withdraw currency from tbs chfifrhels of trad$ and oommaroe; he will nq$ send gold iutfr the market aud sell it for fllrrenoy to lock op in the Treasury vaults.'- Such a prootoure would reduce the valofi Of our oatire products; to buy and look up our currency now, and thus make money scarce and dear, would distress all pf the produoers of the| country, and bandit nobody but usurers and specula tors. This error will not be oommittad. No Adminiflfcnttah «n& dsafr* a money pan**, and, as a oottsequeuoo, low prloas for pro duce, upon the eve of tha Fall elections. The policy of tha President is, than as re- vsalod by bis sets, to appreciate the values of all Government seonrittea preparatory to the making of an effort to lastan the rates of in terest ou tho Public Dabt—to honestly oollect the revunuea-~to reduce expenditures. This policy, if successful, will enable the Adminis tration to piaoe onr finanoni upon a solid foun dation, and to reduce i/ts ioaces. Hnch is the financial policy of thu Prosident, as developed by his acts. It is at once simple and effiolent. By strengthening our oredit wo carry our bonds to a par iu gold, by be coming able to obtain money at 4 or 41 por cent, we cun save 14 or 2 per cent, per year upou our whole debt. Contests between Gov ernment and bondholders are likely to lessen the value of bonds and destroy our hope of re ducing the rato of interest lrom 6 to 4 per oeut. por annum. Tho polioy of the President is wisest lid butt It is honest, simplo and statesmanlike. It will succeed if adhered to and vigorously maintained. - New York 'rones Awj 25/A. BY TELEGRAPH.
