More Telegraph Lines.
Capt. C- G. Merriwether, the Superin
tendent of tlicSoutbcr Division of the Wes-
, Union Telegraph Company, was in our
Jity yesterday. From him we learn that
Lt Ctmpanp is now putting up a new and
Isolated telegraph line from New ITork to
, Orleans, intended especially for through
Itosincss between those great commercial
, eulcrs . This new line is now complete
Ind perfect from New York to Chattanoo-
^ and from Home to Jackson Mississippi,
the lints between Chattanooga and Kouae
Ld Jackson and New Orleans, will be cotn-
Eleted in the nest thirty or forty days.—
ftetc will be, it is cspcctcd, but two re-
’ offices between New York and New
Orleans; one at Lynchburg and the other
|t Rome.
This will be of great commercial advan-
|a:e to our city, and it is gratifying evi-
e of the fact that we are on one of the
largest business thoroughfares on tho con
tinent.
A Suggestion.
The Grand Jury of Richmond county
recently presented Gt v. Rullock for his offi-
Jtial misdemeanors in pardoning some crim
inals convicted, by due course of law, and
aiaking the statutes of the State of no effect
ky nominating the punishment of others.—
i addition to that, we think he ought to
a eeive the official seal of condemnation for
kppointing Foster Blodgett to the respon
sible office of Treasurer of the State Road.
fcVc would suggest to the Grand Jury of
Ibis county, now in session, that they pre-
jenthim for these and other violatiohs of
weights and iul crests of the people,
flicreby the peace and good order of the
immunity aie endangered.
flic Cherokee Agricultural Fair
| It is gratifying to notice that the inter-
t in this important project is deepening
lad widening. A movement is now being
kadi to make the Fair a permanent insti-
Jutirn, on the basis of capital raised by a
kint stock company. Shares are only ten
‘-liars each, and we donbt not when they
l"aicto realize the importance of this en-
■c-rprise, every business man in Rome will
led it is both his duty and interest to take
It'X'k. The enterprise, properly carried
pat, will be of incalculable advantage to the
agricultural interests of the Cherokee coun-
|rv. and indirectly to all oth >r interests.—
The twenty counties of Cherokee Geor-
t and Alabama ought to have as large
lad fine a fair this full as has ever been
pld in the South. All that is needed is
prdial co-operation and earnest effort.
Staton, Bennett * Co, Commission Mer
chants of Norfolk, Va.
We had the pleasure of a call, on yester
day, from our enterprising friend, T. M
Barna, formerly of this city, but now the
junior partner of the above named firm.
Norfolk is making rapid strides iu the
great enterprise of direct trade with Eu
rope; and balds, out substantial inducements
to shippers of cotton. European manufac
turers have their agents constantly in that
city, where they pay a little more for cot
ton than in New York, for the reason that
transportation to Liverpool is less than from
New York.
The entire expense of selling a bale of
cotton in . Norfolk, including commission,
drayagG, storage' and wharfage, is only.
$4 39, or less than half what it is in Ne w
York.
The house of Staton, Bennett & Co , do
a strict commission- business—are tkorongh
going business men—are amply prepared
to make advances, and we eheerfully reco-
mead them to cotton shippers and others.
The freight on compressed cotton to Nor
folk, from Rome, via East Tennessee, is on
ly $1 05 per hundred.—See adv.
AGRICULTURAL FAIR ASSOCIATION
For the Cherokee Country of Georgia and
Alabama.
Fair to be held In Rome, Gm, November
3d, 4th and 5th, 1869.
Rome, Ga., July 20,1869.
At an adjourned meeting of the Fair As
sociation at the Gity Hall, Maj. J. H. Dent
in the Chair, B. F. Jonfes, Secretary,
lively interest was manifested by all present.
The Chairman made appropriate and earnest
remarks, followed by Capt. D. Scott, Maj.
Burns, Mr. Dwiuell, Geo. Black, Dr. S. P.
Smith andother3, of decided interest.
The various committees made reports,
showing progress. Nothing definite as to
place or how the Fair would be conducted,
whether by contribution and individual en
terprise, or as a joint stock company. The
committee on the latter |plan furnished
list of stockholders and supscriptious,
amounting in the aggregate to ahont $1500,
which, considering the short time the com
mittee has had to work, was regarded as
very favorable. If, by any chance, we
should fail in the latter, the individual
plan will be adopted, and it may be stated
positively that the Fair is a fixed fad.
It was resolved that the fee for becoming
a member should be $1, whioh entitles the
person free admission for one year, includ
ing womeu and children, by paying the
membership fee. Books were opened, and
the following membership were enrolled:
Jno. N Perkins, J J Cohen, T H Mor
phy, S F Powers, Jno. Baker, Dr. Wm. A.
Carswell, J G Yeiser, John J Black, R S

son.
On motion, the books are to be kept
open oy the Secretary, and every citizen in
terested, is requested and earnestly invited
to enter himself as a member of the Sooisty.
Those from a distance are requested to re
port by letter.
Resolved, That until the next meeting,
3d of August next, great effort will be
made to secure stock in the Association,
(85,000, shares at $10 per share.) The
Executive Committee will take such steps
as may be necessary to secure the success
of this plan. The sub-committees in coun
ties heretofore named, will at onee open
books for subscription as members; also, for
stock, and report progress to the Execntive
Committee on or before the 3d of Au
gust, at which time the matter of definite
plan will be decided upon.
An earnest appeal is made to every man,
of every class and position, to act promptly
and decidedly in this matter. Committees
must work—individuals must not wait to
be called upon. If not convenient to re
port in person, write to the Secretary and
have yonr names enrolled as members, and
also for as many shares of stock as you can
take. This will insure great success—let
the people rally—let this be the people’s

Harrowing Details of the Erie Railroad
Slaughter.
New Yobk, July 16.—These are a few
particulars of. the Erie Railroad accident:
Mr Gibson, a passenger, says of the burn
ing of the smoking car, that in it, wedged
in his seat, by the heap of broken timbers,
sat the Rev. Mr. Halleck, of New York
City, perfectly nnhnrt, but unable to ex
tricate himself from the wreck. In calm
accents and perfectly collected tones, he
fold us to get an ax to try to out an open
ing iu the side of the car. We searohed
aronnd and obtained one from a house by
the roadside, bat it was so blunt that we
could do nothing with it. We worked and
strove to liberate the unfortunate gentleman
who sat ftere sonnd in limb watching the
approach of the angry flames. Nearer and
nearer they came until his hair began to
crisp an£ burn and his skin to crack ;. then
when we in like manner found the heat
unbearable, we reluctantly retired—com-
>elled to leave this poor gentleman, with
lis eight fellow-sufferers to their terrible
fate. We moved off until all was over.
Nine persons were thus bgraod to death
and others injured more or less severely.
Another passenger says: “I heard the lit
tle children screaming for their mother
and the rassengers who were in the ruins
calling for help and groaning with pain.
An ax was got and ono or two were actual
ly chopped out of their imprisonment.
Most of the passengers in this ear were kill
ed or tbfir bodies ponsnuied or injured.
I should think there were sixteen or seven
teen persons in the front end of this car,
and 1 think but two were taken out. I do
not think there was a person killed by the
smash, but all tbe deaths were from burn-
The Adkins Murder.—Gen. Terry Makes
a Report.
Washington, July 14.—The President
has received reports from General Terry,
commanding in Georgia, concerning the
murder of the late Senator Adkim, of that
State, in May last. The General does not
express any opinion himself, but forwards
documents and let them tell their own story.
From stitements made by the wife and daugh
tors and servants of tho murdered man, it
appears that a large gang of persons weie
concerned in the assassination. Five shots,
were fired at the time of the murder, one by
the man who committed it, one by Adkins
at the man when he was running away, and
three - by confederates, evidently as signals.
There had been a good deal of effort to get
Adkins into a mus3. Whea at the rail
way.station he and his wife had been in
sulted, and many insolent and taunting re
marks bad been made in their hearing
with undoubted purpose to provoke him
into drawing his pistol, he studiously kept
his temper and declined to be drawn' into
controversy, and was therefore coolly assas
sinated when on his way home. He gave
therriame of hismnrderer before dying; but
the civil authorities neglected to'take an'}
steps for his arrest and it is presumed that
he fled the country as soon as he found the
military were on his track. The comman-
ding officer at Warren ton, gives a number
of instances in which the laws have been
violated outrageonsly, the civil authorities
being entirely Eilent-, or so lax in their en
forcement that nothing comes of the ef
fort to bring the guilty persons to justice.—
