The Citizen denies the report that tber*- were four ses of cholera in that town last week. It rays there s never been but one esse of cholera in Dalton, aud at was imported from Chattanooga some three weeks o. Dalton was never, in the “memory of the oldest habitant,” healthier than it is at this present writ- The North Georgia Agricultural and Mechanical As- .ciation held a meeting on Tuesday last in Dalton, at ilch it was unanlmoualy agreed to immediately uace operations preparatory to the next flair. The Dalton Citizen learns from a reliable source tbat l ire neither is nor has been a case of cholera at Ring id. Two negroes dud there recently, but i.ot from disease. A little panic seized tome of the citi es mentally and internally, perhaps, and hence the sport. A lot of “green burglars ' have been depredating pon the citizens of Dalton, bnt notwithstanding ieir verdancy the police of that city has up to this ime failed to arrest any of the gang. Rain more or less every day in the region of Car- frsville. Crops of corn and cotton very promising. Feather warm—air bracing—no mosquitoes—health [cod. Justices of the peace in Bartow sometimes leave the lecision of a cs3e to be determined by the personal irewess of the lawyers engaged in the cause. Drs. Baker and Leake of Csrtersvillo amputated the foot of a Mr. Crawford, on Saturday la9t. The injury was caused by the Western and Atlantic Railroad train it Kingston, of which Mr. Crawfcrd was conductor. Some eight years ago this same gentleman lost one of his hands by a similar accident. The Baptist meeting at Stegall Station closed Sunday night last, after a continuance of ten days. Twenty-three were baptised, and six joined the church by letter. The Cartersville Express tays that the School Com missioners of Bartow county informed the editor that there were at present sixty schools in operation in that connty, in which there are in attendance “twenty- one thousand children.” That Commissioner ought to be well paid for looking after so many schools, and Bartow should be put down as the most prolific county in Georgia. There is now a daily mail line between Dahlonega and Gainsville. Mr. Jesse M. Turpin has tendered his resignati President of the Cotton States Mechanics’ ~r.J Agri cultural Fair Association in Augusta. A number of negroes went to serenade another ored fellow the other night, who not liking to be dis- Imbed at so unseasonable au hour, took down his oh musket and flrei into the crowd, killirg a negro man by the name of John Morgan. Jim Cooper was the , serenaded party. The roaches are pestering the good housewives of Augusta terribly. One lady, who lias tried the rem edy after all others had failed, says to her afH cted friends: “ Strew around the \laces where the reaches frequent plenty of ohl-fasbioned red wafers, * neb as used to be sought after for sealing letter*.” These are composed of flour covered with ied oxide of lead. The loaches ea*. them with avidity, and the account is evenly balanced at small c^st. Tho Valdosta Times, says the corn crop in Lowndes and surrounding counties is made, and it is pronounc ed the best, perhaps, known in this country for years. The cotton crop is suffering just now from too much rain. T.ie forms and boll3 are beginning to shed too profusely. The caterpillar has done no damage as yet, but he is now in his w.bthe third or last time, and when he conies out again, which will be in a week or ten days, king cotton u ay lock out for equal Binine.-a in Albany is beginning to improve gialu- ally. The full tiade will open up very briskly. Cotton is beginning to op< n about in spots in Dough erty county, and some cf the farmers have bren pick ing. Heaty rains have falltn in Albany every day this week. They were greatly needed, although they terferred somewhat with fodder pulling. The Central City says au old planter in our office, yesterday, who had jnst returned from a visit to his sons’ plantations in Mitchell, stated to us that he never saw fleer crops grow on pine land than e being made this year in MitcLell county. That ia the portions oi the county be visited farmers had not suffered a day from rain this year. The same paper say*: “S gh" Hawkins, of the Covington Ei»t«rpri3e, has Wen on a visit to Lexington, and says that, in honor of bis visit, the people all turned out and held a quar terly meeting; the Greensboro Brass Band played for an exhibition which was gotten up for his benefit; and one nnn sliced another’s cheek wide open, 1>y way of amusement for ibis popular editor. He winds up his article by solemnly declaring that the P. G. in G. lives in Oglethorpe county—the which, we bog to “nothing” to “Sigh.” The Columbus Enquirer says it is very probable the route by the Chattahoochee river via Chatiahooclu and thcnca by rail to Jacksonville, will soon be opened. The Dawson Journal says corn crops have not been so good in this section for several yc ars, and best of all there is a great deal planted. I'p to date, cotton a's s general thing, is doing well. Considerable uneasi ness exists in regard to the citerpiilar, notwithstand ing they have not begun their ravages. Some farmers report none in sight, while ethers complain of the presence of the fly, and others still, the genuine cater pillar. If they will remain quiet about three weeks the crops will be safe. A man la southwest Georgia, after luaring the Dec laration of Independence read, on the Fourth of July, moved that the speech be published, as It the best he bad ever “heern” in his life. Reville, of the Meriwether Vindicator, failing to get any hands to pull his fodder, pulled eff his coat and went at it like a little man ; we are told he put on sandals, tied his suspenders around bis waist, took umbrella in one hand and a watermelon in the other, and thus armed pulled down one square in his garden in the course of a week. Alabama Notes. Lauderdale county will make only half crop: Cotton wornii abound in some parts of Sumter county. The cotton worm* are invading Bullock county in force. The corn crop in Butler connty ;a better tli average. There wer to July 24th Birmingham has received contributions for her suf ferers to the amount of $1,850. One hundred and fifty-three pupils entered Profes sor Larrabee’s female college, at Tcscsloou, last ses- eion. The Birmingham Independent, suspendtd several weeks in conicquence of sickness md death, 1.: appeared. Mr. H. P. Handley, of Wilcox, who went to Texas some two months since, has returned to his old home, having gotten enough of Texas In two months. Captain Gallagher, late on the staff of General Craw ford in this State, and one who did the people of Ala bama a great deal of harm, has been dismissed from the service by a court martial. Selma can boast of an animal in the shape of a msn who abuses the daughter who has Slav- d for him for years, and ends his abuse by kicking her out of doors. A company of English capitalists propore to invest $5,000,000 In the coal and Iron bnslness at or near Birmingham if the facta justify the reports tbat have reached them of the mineral wealth of that section. If that is tho only condition they will Invest ten mil lions.

Some of those papers *hich are the subser vient tools of tho New Dispensation politi cians, are rebuking ns for opposing the bat tledore and shuttlecock game which a handful of office-seekers are endeavoring to play with the masses of the Democracy. We are told that we do not represent the views of the leaders of the party. Perhaps not. Nei ther did we represent their views when they engaged in a scramble for office last year, only to get ignominiously beaten. If it be indeed true that a reorganization of the Democracy has become necessary, tho ne cessity must be traced back to theso very leaders.” That an immense political party is drifting aimlessly about in the sea of poli tics, is due solely to the wretched manage ment of the men whom they have trusted for the past eight ycats. .Stuffings and erasures, compromises and concessions, tinkering with great issues, and dropping principles for the sake of catching a few votes, have formed the sum total of all that the Democratic leaders have done. Aud the result of this miserable imbecility is to be found in the formidable oligarchy entrenched in power at Wash ington. Health —Incrcas- —On a Summer The rapidly.

This is the change most needed. When it is made the Democracy will recover its former discipline and prestige, but until the neophytes who run it now, and who add the venal thirst for pnblic pap to mental imbecility, xve cannot hope for any change; and what is bad to-day will grow worse to-morrow and still worse the day after. There are dozens of boys in the South now’ who could have done better than the Demo cratic leaders have done since the war ended. It is time to get rid of these incompetents; hence, if reorganization is necessary let the people begin by giving them an unlimited leave of absence from influence and office. Just here reform is essential and nowhere else. TJ\ a Fj ] tionery, 105 Whitehall Street. BUSINESS COLLEUES.

We are compelled to adopt this course to prevent the accumu lation of a large number of petty accounts on our books, which call for more clerical labor than they are really worth. Societies, associ tions, etc., can very well empower their secre taries to pay such small accounts as news paper bills generally are. This change is not made from any distrust of transient advertisers, as, in a large majority of cases, we have found them prompt in pay ing their bills. Our business, however, has increased in other departments so largely that we are forced to exact advance payments, for the purpose of avoiding the necessity of em ploying additional clerical labor.

It is true that she bad her Joseph E. Browns and others of that ilk, but luckily, she ignored them and took a set of adventurers, headed by the present Governor, whose redeeming quality was that they were content with a moderate amount of plunder. But while Virginia escaped absolute spolia tion by surrendering her political principles, she also destroyed her influence in all paits of the country and tarnished her reputation. Rather than allow others to murder her liberty, she deliberately slaughtered it herself, and if the act wa3 even a trifle pnsiianimons, it at least enabled her to raise tobacco and corn i and to lay by a few pennies. How inriguificant this once great State has j become is to be seen in the action of her Conservative” Convention, a report of which we published in the Herald of yes terday. The "declaiation of principles” is the most wishy washy affair we have read for a long time. It voluntarily assures Grant that it entertains no purpose of captious hostility to his administration, and, in the next breath, it covertly truckles to the party in power, and insinuatingly begs Federal aid for the completion of a ship canal. Virginia 'Conservatives” have no knowledge of Grant’s doings in Lonisiana, Arkansas, South Carolina and elsewhere. They can only remember that they have been permitted to raise tobacco and corn unmolested, and assure their own oppressors that a few millions of dollars thrown their way would be an “additional bond of union.” And this from the State that gave birth to Patrick Henry and Jefferson ! Bah ! THE INTERVIEW AT FROI1SBGKF. Sir Sidney Wateriow, Lord Mayor of Lon don, is to be given a banquet by the Mayors of a number of the principal cities, in the Guildhall at York. He banquetted the Shah now who will give the other mayors a dinner? The Shah is a punster. While at a fete in Paris, he said, pointing at M. Buffet, President of the National Assembly: M. Buf fet esl la pour is buffet." And then everybody “smiled.” While the visit ©f the Count de Paris (Or- leanist claimant to the French throne) to his cousin, the Count de Chambord (Legitimist claimant) may indicate an effort to unite their interest, M. Thiers was correct in saying that France has nothing to fear from them. The same element that drove Thiers out of the Presidency and put in MacMahon would thwart any and every scheme to restore the monarchy. An alliance between the Counts de Chambord and de Paris would be advan tageous to both. Tho former is old and child less, and the latter is legitimately his heir, as he is a young man, can w'ell afford to wait. Bnt will the adherents of the Due d’Aumale in tho Assembly agree to any such project ? Or, gTantiDg that they could be whipped into it, would the Bonapartists consent to its ac complishment? It is tolerably certain that a union of the Republicans of all shades in the Assembly with the Imperialists would defeat every attempt of the Monarchists to place de Chambord on a throne. Even if MacMahon endeavored to back them, ho wonld not suc ceed. The army is neither Legitimist nor Orleanist; hcncc it would not obey him. Thiers is right. France has nothing to fear from Legitimists or Orleanists; consequently the council at Frohsdorf, even though it re stores to paternal relations the two branches of tho Bourbon family, will not enable them to remount the throne from w hich they were driven in 1830 and 1848. A correspondent desires to know- if it is true that a certain railroad magnate is help ing the Herald run its special engine. We moat solemnly affirm that he is not. Ever since we tried to “ blackmail ” the great and good and pious Joseph out of $13, we have not had any intercourse with him whatsoever. Joseph is not helping us to run our special engine. True, he might be induced to run it one day for ns, if he thought he could blow ns up with it; but we have never asked him. Our correspondent is in error. Probably he has misdirected this letter, and that accounts for its coming to this office. This is the way they Caged a rhinoceros at Ithaca, according to a local paper: “A cable chain was attached to each of bis legs, and one around his neck, and these were coupled to locomotives on each of our railroads. The engines were then started. Pulling in five different direebons, his behemothship bad nothing left to fight with bnt his tail, and that was lashed to a church spire by a wire rope. Being rendered harmless by these guys, a new wagon was built around him and thus he was secured. between£Montague8 aud Capnlets can hardly have surpassed in bitterness the mutual and loDg-standing hatred of Orleanists and Bona partists. Republicans and Legitimists re gard each other with contempt and dislike, and are quite ready to begin tbroat-entting at the first fair opportunity. The Atheists and Socialists of the Extreme Left are consid ered by the pious mousqnetaires of tho ex alted Right much as the tawny followers of Mohammed were by the Crusaders —as no better than Bavages and something worse than dogs, whom it was meritorious to exterminate. The men of the 4th of September, from whom the last Impe rial Government fled when Paris was con vulsed by the news of Sedan, are objects of execration to the Bonapartists, who are at this moment engaged in venting their venom on the unlucky and ill-advised Jules Favre. But all these and other enmities are inferior ; in virulence to that existing between the ! representatives of the July Monarchy and of | the Second Empire. ! Paris has jnst been amused by a sharp on slaught made by the Bonaoartists on the Princes of Orleans. The former are scandal ized at ihe prominent position lately assumed by the Princes, and by their intimacy with the President, of the Republic. Their very modest and retiring altitude while M. Theirs was in power, renders tho change more re markable. Daring the last few weeks, and especially while the Shah was here, tLey have been seen everywhere, and usually in uniform. As friends of Marshal MacMahon, which they apparently are, he lias a perfect right to keep them near his person at reviews and other pnblic solemnities, and, moreover, their position in the army gives them prece dence of all other officers below the rank of Marshal. They entered tho service young; as the King’s sons, their promotion was natu rally rapid, and the Dukes of Nemours and Aumale are now the senior Generals of Divi sion. With a military man as President of the Republic, it seems a most natural thing that the senior Generals should form part of his habitual suite. Were MacMahon less sim- plo and plain than he is. one might suppose it pleased his pride to have princes of "royal blood riding with his staff. It is more prob able that he feels sympathy with the person ally unmerited misfortunes of a distinguished family, and that he like3 the princes, who are not deficient in the qualities that conciliate good will. Be this as it may, more has been seen and heard of them in Paris during the last four weeks than during the two previous years. At the review they rode with the Marshal, and will not have failed 10 notice the special ap plause given to the squadron of cavalry which marched past under the command of the Due de Chartres. At the gala performance at the Opera the Due dejNemours was in the royal box. At the Elysee, at the Ministry ot Foreign Affairs, at the fetes, in short, one saw the familiar faces of the Orleans Princes. Some people say that they have thus put themselves forward in compliance with the advice of the Due de Broglie, whose dynastic partialities arc no secret, and who thinks that to show themselves frequently to tho army and to the public may be advantageous to their interests. By whomseever given, the advice seems judicious. It was not by keep ing out of sight, but by ‘effacing’ themselves, as tho French say, that they would improve their chances. In all scrambles the luck is for the forward; and there seems no reason why, in tho competition tor supreme power in France, the Orleans family should not have a good a change as any other. Were a vote taken to-morrow in the Assembly for a definitive form of government, it is probable the largest number of voices would be given for the Orleanists. Thero would be more Re publicans, certainly, but these would divide their suffrages among two or three different kinds of republic.” CARPETS, WlATTfNGS, ETC. B. KENDKICKS aTsons.

EEltMAN ft KCllltT, Cigars, Tobacco and Snuff CONTRACTORS HSon Against Fatueb. — A suit brought by John Kendrick, Jr., of Waterbury, Conn., against his father John Kendrick, for the re covery of real estate property, has been deci ded in favor of the plaintiff. The facts are given by the Hartford Courant ns follows: "John Kendrick, Jr., was tho half owner of the house aud lot occupied by his parents, tho same having been built by Hon. Green Kendrick, the grandlather, and deceded to his two grandsons, allowing liis son John a life interest in tho same. In 1870 young John married against tbe wishes of his pa rents, and au alienation occurred, ho going to Now Haven to reside. Thereupon John Kendrick, Sr., the father, obtained from the Judge of Probate, Henry I. Houghton, an appointment ns guardian of the young man, who was a minor, aud authori ty to sell his property. The prop erty was immediately transfertd to the late George Blakesley lorla nominal considera tion, and by him immediately tranferred to Marian Kendrick, the wife of John Kendrick, Sr. These proceedings were had without the knowledge of the young man or of bis grand father, and wero ouly known when tho renl estate transfers were published in the Ameri can. Jndge Seymour holds that tho entire proceedings are void and of no effect, and that young John shall recover his property and coats of suit. John Kendrick, Sr., ns re spondent in tbe suit, gave evidence to show that hie two sons had promised to mnkc over the proporty to him upon their arriving at age; that he had mado many improvements upon the property, and that when he mndo the tranafers he did it under the impreaaion that h. waa entitled to his soti’a interest in the property.
