X & AM€<l>€iS VSISlY' » IQ 11 AI e» (tea SPART A, GEORGIA. FRIDAY‘MORNING, Sept. 17,1869 Our Corps of Contributors. Col. D. T. Harris^ Esq. F. L. Little, Dr. E. M. Pendleton, Col. 0. W. DuBosk, Esq. J. T. Jordan, Geo. F. Pierce, Jr. Esq Cotton. This article has declined within the past week from 32 to 291 cents, or Twelve Dollars and a half a bale ; and from in¬ dications we shall not be surprised if by die first of November it deolines below 25 wots. A still further decline brings it down to 26 cents on the 15th in Augusta. The cause of this sudden fall, and this continuing decline is apparent. “He that MM may read.” Our home market is governed absolutely by the New York price : that in New York by the price in Liverpool. In Liverpool the price is con¬ trolled by the demand and the prospective wpply. While it is true that an Englishman knows nothing of cotton outside of its manufacture, yet he claims to be oi all Mankind the best authority every year ns to how much cotton will be shipped thither from the South. There is nothing in all Newspaper Literature more certainly true, judging from the Cotton Houses in that city, as to the amount made in each •tate io the cotton growing district. They know to an acre how much has been planted —how cultivated; what the yield will be ; what the demand for home con¬ sumption, and how many bales there will remain for shipment. For one we are not surprised at his conclusions, though founded almost al¬ ways in error. While he forms these Irom incorrect data, these dates are the test light ho has to guide him in fiis esti Mates. Instead of heeding the accounts which our own papers furnish, he assumes they are interested in suppressing the truth, and credits not a representation they make, unless it be extravagant in overestimating the prospect. When they ■peak as they did in July, of two or three bales per acre; of tho splendid seasons and collation, the Liverpool man believes that. But when August comes, if you mention drought, rust, oaterpillars, and other disasters which have bcfaliou the orop, and assert, as our press have done universally, that the yield is cut off one half, he listens with absolute incredulity, and as a refutation of tho troth of theso statements, points to the receipts of the staple at our various commercial centres. Other things may fail or misrepresent, but his statistics are infallible. Ho turns to tho daily receipts at Charleston, Savan¬ nah, Mobile, New Orleans, and other markets, and perceives that the receipts Are perhaps in advance of any correspond¬ ing date for years; and the conclusion with him is irresistible, that this state of things springs from the excessive yield of the crop. And his acting upon this con elusion, is what causes tho decline which we have noticed. This being true—and it also being truo that ho knows nothing of how rust, and {•retracted drought, hastens the premature -opening of tho cotton, if we, who grow it, would have thoso who regulate its prico to act from a correct standpoint and do their work upon satisfactory knowledge, and according to tho general principle u supply and demand/' wo must not make such undue haste in getting our cotton ‘in market. The orop of '67, should be a bitter Ics. son to us for all life; true, there were other causes • operating, but nono wore more potent in keeping the prico down in the opening of the season, than the gen* oral prevalence in England of the impres¬ sion that the orop would reaoh in its yield three millions of bales. The orop did reach two million seven hundred thousand, and when it was ascertained that there was a heavy deficit, the price roso from 11 cents to 30. Tho crop of'68, was 2,500, 000 bales, and realized the fanner about 25 cents average. The present crop, from the general representations, will not reach more than 2,800,000 bales, of which mere .than ji million will be consumed by our factories at homo, leaving less than a mil¬ lion and a half for .foreign use. We do *04 adviaa farmers to hold cot¬ ton at 30 cents, but we arc satisfied that tho present Q.rop ought to average that figure. And if priocs decline still .fur¬ ther, as they are likely to do, the remedy is in holding at homo ; the price will rise whenever tho receipts show any consider* able decline. Wo have only made a half orop of this groat staple in Middle Georgia, but with 80 cents for it we will not long continue poor. Under discouragements, of which the world has uot known, the work of making cotton has gone on since the cod¬ ing of the war. Tho crop of '66 was a failure; that of '67 was good, but the low price crushed many farmers, so that they will not soon ruoover; that of'68 has paid him haudsoiucly, with and good if we can only make two good crops, pay, the South will again stand ereot in the consciousness of regained prosperity, and feel that her " cotton” is indeed a “ king.” The New York Herald on this subject discourses thus cheeringly; “ We may conclude the crop of '69, will realize an immense sum of money. * * * l 1 rom all the lights before us, there is rca* son to believe it will realise two hnudred millions in gold. This is in addition ti¬ the revenue from tobacco, rice, sugar and other valuable crops of the South for ex¬ portation. will In short the South this year have a surplus production to be ‘sold for cash, over and above the production of necessities, worth at least two hundred millions dollars. Who will not say the South is becoming rich again ? We must admire the wonderful recuperative power of the people then, and congratulate them on the splendid prospect they have of material prosperity. With more 1 labor and capital to develops their resources the southern States will become , the richest country the globe.” very soou, on Fessenden--Rawlins—Bell. Among the news items of the week just past, may be mentioned the death of three American citizens who had won t cir way to distinction in the world. hesseodon, 0 re [ cr 10 and ® eneral lastly, newline, the Hon. Senator Bell of Tennessee. From our exchanges, the death of these distinguished men has created a considerable impression on tho publio mind. Fessenden at the time of his death was a U. 8. Senator from the State of Maine. Born in 1803 he was 66 years of age.— From 1832 when he represented his coun¬ ty in the Legislature, through the remain¬ der of his life he was in one sense or an¬ other the servant of the public. He serv ed a Dumber of years iu Congress both in the House of Representatives and the Senate, and the evidence of his accepta¬ bility is found in the fact that his consti* tuents continued to bestow upou him place after place. Among other promi¬ nent positions occupied by him was that of Secretary of the Treasury in 1864. Gen. John A. Rawlins was born in the Stole of Illinois, in 1831, and consequently was in his 39th year. His father was a man of humble character and was very poor. From early youth he thirs¬ ted for knowledge and was astudentof eve* rything that was to be learned. Turning to the profession of law as his chosen vocai tion in life he was rising rapidly into em¬ inence when tho war interrupted his pro¬ gress, and he entered the army as an Ad¬ jutant. In 1861 Gen. Grant made him Adjutant GenT. of his brigade, and in that capacity but with inorcasiug rank he continued to servo Grant in all bis history until I860 when he became Secretary of War In this position he became known to our people ot the South and was be¬ ginning to win a way into their estoem by the honest and efficient administration of that important department. His mind was said to have been excellently drilled, and those who kucw him, said of him, that he possessed many distinguished traits of character. Ho was assiduous in his at¬ tention to duties, and while Gen. Grant and the Cabinet Officers were generally traveling, Rawlins waB devoting bis mind to his department. The death of Fessen¬ den and his death especially become sig¬ nificant to the South iu view of tho pros, poet that both their places may be filled by men very repugnant to us in their po¬ litical conduct and in this view wc could very illy spare cither of them. But in the death of the Hon. John Bell, the heurt of every true man in tho South is saddened, for wc feel that one our greutest and purest political lights is forever extinguished. Born in the last century, he was identified with the most remarkable history and progress of coun¬ try and was the contemporary of Clay, Webster and Calhoun in the days of th*«r greatest intellectual splendor. Entrfing publio life before he reached his Majority in 1817 be was identified with American politics until declining haifth reminded him that retirement wai * necessity.— Over forty years he wa* before the public and a servant of the /ublic the greater por¬ tion of the time, During that period he made for hi*&<df a reputation for broad liberal xcatesmanship, which has been aebieved by only a few of our public men. That be was an intellectual man, his de¬ bates in the United States Senate worthily attest, and his patriotism perhaps will not be questioned by any who have kopt up with his remarkable history. During his splendid career, Tennessee delighted to honor him, and did honor him with the highest places in her gift. His political career terminated with the defeat of the O-N-ta. p#rty I860 by H. was nominated aud supported for Presi dent ot the U. S. Broken with age aud physical infirmities he then abandoned the arena of publio strife, and by Lis unswerv ing demotion to the “Lost Cause,’ lost all of his magnificent estate in Tennessee val¬ ued at half million dollars.

No injury was done the machinery, though our col's, and tho men thorougly dissected and over hauled the works. This valuable inform mation was obtained ; that a Forge of 16 furnaces was turning tho pig iron obtain, ed from Dade Co., Ga, into all forms of merchantable iron, except R. R. Kails, and this article would be moulded in a short time. 'Twas too hot for your writer; he de¬ serted, and retired to the rear—a cool place and out of danger. But the main body advanced down the rail road 13 miles, and charged nobly into the uEtna Coal Mines —where 125 persons armed with pick-aics awaited them. 'J here picked men were quietly engaged in their under ground work, they filled their Coal Car. with carbon 71, gae 21, Sulphur 75 Ac., (analysis of coal)—and sent them by steam whirling over tressel above chasms, dark from their very depth, down the mountain slope to the station 1 mile dis¬ tant. The rolling cars going and return* ing, deadened the noise of the raiders as they silently approached under the guid¬ ance of some deserters, and th; capture would have been complete, but as the dis¬ tance from the earth’s surface increased, the darkness grew greater, and the flicker¬ ing lamps showed pallor upou the faces of the advancing body, brave hearts began to quail, and a trembling and knocking ot knees seized the noble side seventy. One after one fell back, disorganization was taking place—stragglers on every side— tho General rushed frantically back at a break-neck speed, and the rout was com¬ plete. The compassionate Coalers hear¬ ing tho cries for help—went to the rescue, they took several of our men prisoners, but were bribed to release them upon pay of money, and promise never to return. After a few hours the place tf rendez* vous was filled with the begiiramed, swar¬ thy and fatigued. The demoralization was too great! to reorganize, and the forces fell back upon Chattanooga, and destroy cd the commissary stores of O. P Touts, •the kind-hearted, and long bearded Hotel keeper, (I joined them in that.) Soon after this destruction we gave up the Tennessee campaign, and at daylight we reached Rome.

About twenty-five miles from Rome ** crossed the Georgia lino and ente/*d into Alabama water, in which we as/ited until nearly 3 o’clock a. m. daylight found us anchored eighty miles from Rome—Round Mountain three fourths of a mile distant. A good road extends from the wharf to the ruins of the old Iron Works—which before the ac¬ cursed raid of Straight, in “63” consisted of two furnaces producing 25 tons of iron per diem. The ore lies in profusion over the surface of tho mountain; the veins extended in all directions—a shaft sunk 40 feet, still entered strata of ore averag¬ ing 62 per cent, pure iron. Capt. Elliott, the chief owner of these works offers to transport the pig iron to Rome for 83 per tun ; and he offers the property for sale. Having been invited to a barbecue near the Cornwall Iron Works iu Cherokee Co., Ala., we wore not loug in arriving at Cedar Bluff, 10 miles U p the river.

After examining all points of interest, we were conducted to a shady grove, and cool spring.

The days frolic was over; the week was drawing to a closd—and we had assembled on deck—not for prayers, but to hear Colonel Hulbert’s remarks, he spoke sensibly, and satisfacto¬ rily concerning, his motives for planning the excursion, and his rail road plans.— Col.
