FRIDAY MORNING, July 28.
A NEW ISSUE.
The ill advised and ill , fated riot in New
York ou the 12th, promises to create a Dew
i$sue in politics, and to disorganize the
present party combinations.
The Radical-politicians are seizing the
oircumstcncc i s a means of creating a di
vision in the ranks of the Democracy, and
to that end are busily; .fanning the worst
passions of the Irish, clement, and denounc
ing the Democratic Governor for his order
protecting the Orangemen in their right, to
parade in pnblic on on 'bo 12th.
Foolish Irish demagogues are encour
aged by this effort cn the part of the Re
publican press to foment strife and are
ranting the most furious and bitter threats
for vengeance. These miserable, fools for
get that the Democratic party stood forth
in the days of Knoiv-Nothism in their de
fence, and through its strong conservative
influence the rights of Irish citizens were
saved, They forget that the same principle
that induced a Democratic Extcgtivc to in
terfere to protect the Orangemen in the
peaceable exercise of a right to parade the
streets of New York, is the very same prin
ciple that is ready to protect the Irish them
selves in the exercise of a similar right.
They forget tco that the war they are
making upon Gov. Hoffman, is nothing but
a re-opening of the old Know Nothing if
sue, and in re-opening it they arc data;
the very worst thiug which they could do
for their own safety. The principles of
Know Nothism are not dead—they cnly
sleep, and it Ms a dangerous thiog for the
Irish to arouse them up again. The South
before it was that stood as a bulwark
against its spread, but the South now would
be unanimous in its favor.
The Southern whites remember too sharp
ly the cruel outrages inflicted upon their
families and homes by these foreign mer
cenaries during the war to readily forgive
them, while the negroes arejealous of their
competition, and would, to a man, vote
with the party that opposes their interest.
If the Irish are sensible, they will cease
their angry folly, and in future attend to
their own business.
GEORGIA STATE AGRICULTURAL

Secretary's Bulletin.
Secretary’s Office, Macon, Ga.. )
July 17th, 1871. j
The Weekly Press.—The thanks of
the State Agricultural Society are tendered
to the various weekly newspapers which
have irom time to time given publicity to
important notices from this office—and,
indeed, have never failed to comply with
the Secretary’s requa-t in this respect.
The service of the office has by these fav
ors been incalculably aided in itseffioieney.
[t is mainly by these' means that this office
is enabled to hold direct and frequent com
munication with the individual members of
BULLOCKS PARDONS.

Mr. Tlios. Booze brings to our office a
clover stalk 6 feet high. It was from the
farm of that gentleman, and the yield was
G,000 pounds per acre. The clover was

Iron telegraph posts have been introduc.
ed with great success in Switzerland, hav
ing been already put up on Swiss railways
a distance of 350 miles, and are now being
extended daily In Prussia they have been
placed experimentally on the railway from
Weissenfels to Gera, and on the line be
tween Berlin aud Potsdam. As the iron
is now as cheap, it is considered that in a
short time they will altogether replace the
old wooden poles in Germany, which canse
such frequent interruptions to telegraphic
communication from rotting or being blown
down by every high wind, especially in ex
posed situations.
Gen. Toombs,—According to the Alba
ny News, a lady who inquired of General
Toombs if he really did say all those ter
rible things to Smalley, of the Tribune, re
ceived this reply : “Madam, the scoun
drel did not say half I did tell him to say.
I told him to be particular to say to bis peo
ple that they had stolen the graves of their
hirelings, stolen than fiom an old woman,
a lame old woman, who had not the power
to commit treason, the grand daughter of
Martha Washington.”

. State Agricultural Convention,
We publish to-day the somowhat leangthy
hut interesting address of Secretary Lewis,
in regard to the above named meeting,
Mr. Lewis is slightly mistaken in regard
to the generosity of Rome in entertaining
tho Delegates free. The Directors of the
Cherokee Pair Association are trying to
find places for all the delegates but expect
that they will be entertained at their own
expense. So far as we have been able to
learn this has been the ease at all State Ag
ricultnral Conventions. Of course private
families will take pleasure in entertaining as
many of their friends as they may have
accomodations for.
The city of Rome proposes to entertain
the invited guests from other States.
Hollingsworth & CoV— Gddsilcn. Ala
vs. Underwriters Insurance Co.—
This case, in which the -public took much
interest, was decided yesterday in.favor of
tlie : Defendants.
The prohibitory law never intended to
interfere with sui-ciders.
Agricultural Report for 1868.—
In a few days copies of the Agricultural
Report for 1868 will be seat to those
county societies immediately on the line of
the Express. Those county societies not
on Express line, but accessible thereto, will
please repoit to this office, immediately, to
what stations or depots or Express lines
packages may be sent so as most certainly
to reach them.
County Societies — List of Mem
bers.—ICouuty societies whioh have not
reported the list of their members should
do so at once, that they may participate in
the distribution of documents—papers from
this office, etc. Copies of the Premium
List and other documents will be forwarded
on receipt of the list.
Counties Having no Societies.—
In counties whioh have no agricultural so
cieties, copies of this list have been sent to
tne Clerks of the Superior Court and to the
Ordinaries. At these offices they may be
found for evamination by the enterprising
citivens, who may, it is to be hoped, be
found now and then, though friendless and
alone in his aspirations for improvement,
scattered and isolated here and there in un
affiliated, un aroused, indifferent, no-agriouj*
tural-sooiety counties. All snch citizens
who may be discovered by this circular and
brought to light, so far aj to report their
names to this office, will be kindly remem
bered by the Seoretary, in their misfortnnes
and afflictions, when he eomes to distribute
his favors, documents, etc.
All county societies are urgently re?
quested to report, at once, to this office the
times of their monthly meetings, and a list
of their members. This information is
necessary to the efficient working of this
office end very valuable in its result to
them,

We, the Grand Jurors for first Week,
July Term, 1871, submit the following:
We do not propose to disenas the politi
cal statas of the country, but simply to say
that Floyd county is. peaceable and quiet,
and that the civil authorities of the connty
are fnlly capable oi taking care of the pri
vate and public interests of the oidzens.
We would recommend our Senator sod
Representatives to have a law passed at the
next session of the General Assembly com
pelling parties to bring suits to (he several
courts of this 8tate, to pay oosts on such
suits to judgment, the verdict to Hired
whether the plaintiff or defendant shall be
Cable for cost of suit. That said law em
braces a clause protecting persons not able
to pay costs by their making affidavit to
that effect. We would farther recommend
that the pay of witnesses be so fixed as to
compel parties, plaintiff and defendant to
set weekly with witnesses who are regularly
subpoenied, or make oath that they are not
able to do so.
We would farther recommend oar Sena
tor and Representatives to repeal the law
passed at the last session of the General
Assembly changing the venae of minor
eriminrl cases fro n the Justice to the Su
perior Coart. It is obvious that the ex
pense incurred by the trial of the eases be
fore the Superior Court will, iu a few years,
bankrupt not only this, but many other
connties in Georgia, and the end of jastioe
can as well be met in the courts below
in this. This body had under considera
tion many cases during the present week
so trivial a oature that they conld be dis
posed of before a Justice of the Peace in
half an hour, while it will occupy the time
of this coart two or three honrs.
There is a matter of more than ordinary
importance that has come before this body,
which we feel we should make public
through these presentments. That is the
loose manner Ip which poisons arp sold and
placed ont in the woods, professedly for the
purpose of killing wolves and other wild
animals. We are informed that in several
sections of the county that poisons have
been placed ont in the woods for this osten
sible pnrpose, at the same time en (angering
the lives of stock running at large, and
perhaps the lives of individual- 1 . We
would iu this connection caff the attention
of the Ordinary to Section 1429 of the
Code, and the attention of thp Solicitor
General, Druggists and others to Section
4513 of the old Code.
- Wo submit the following report of the
Treasurer books:

We recommend that thirty (3U) per
cent each of the Poor and Jail Fond be
transferred to the Jury Fond.
On examining the books of the Clerk of
the Superior Court and Ordinary, we found
them neatly and properly kept.
We recommend that theQrdipary be paid
tvfentyc&ve dollars per month for extra du
ties in recording and attending to the busi
ness of his office for oonnty purposes, and
that he receive one hundred and fifty- dol
lars for extra services to July 1st, 1871.
On examination of the poblic buildings,
we find the plastering and windows of the
Coqrt House in had condition, and the pen
ter of the second floor punk some 4 inches.
We recommend the Ordinary to have thp
above repairs made.
We Sod the jail in good condition, and
recommend that the kitchen and dining
room bo ceiled overhead.
We find the condition of the P-oorHonse
and farm improved in several respects.—
The recommendations of former Grand
Juries, to Block the farm, has been 'com
plied with in a satisfactory manner. We
think nnder the present management ofDr,
G. W. Holmes, the Poor House will soon
become self-sustaining.
We find the roads generally in bad con
dition, and see no necessity in specifying
any particular road. We therefore present
the Road Commissioners of this connty for
neglect of duty, and recommend that the
fine bp made final at the next term of this
Court, unless the Commissi mere Pan show
that the roads in their several districts are
in good order.
We are informed that Wm. Watters and
others have raised the dam at their mills,
on the Belle’s Ferry road, so as to raise the
water, at the ford, on Walter’s Creek, so as
to be dangerous in crossing. We therefore
recommend the Ordinary to require them
to build a bridge across that creek at said
lord, or to lower thoir dam so as not to
back water over the ford.
We recommend onr Senator and Repre
sentatives to so amend the act passed at the -
last session of the General Assembly, rela
tive to free bridges, so as to authorize the
Ordinary to submit the question to the vo
ters of this county at any day he maj see
proper,
We reccommend that these Present
ments be published in the city papers, they
charging half their nscal rates.
In bringing onr labors to a close onr
thanks are dne hi* Hon, J. R. Parrott, pre
siding, for his courtesy to this body, and lor

A Forthcrn Opinion of Georgia.
A correspondent of the New York Jour
nal of Commerce, making a tour through
the Southern States, speaks in flattering
terms of our State.
Writing from Columbus on a rccentdate
he says:
Bight across a short bridge over the
Chattahoochee river, not as far from where
I sit as Brooklyn is from New York, is Al
abama. Business men Of Colnmbas live
on the hills of AUbama, which look like
the hills around the lower bay—the High
lands of Navesiuk, with the Chattahoochee
to perfect the general resemblance. •"
I LEAVE GEORGIA WITH REGRET,
for she is from her eastern to her western
boundary, a good, solid, prosperous, kind
and hospitable Stale. Her people are as
fine specimens of humanity as are found on
the green earth, and besides being intelli
gent and of far-reaching ‘ken, are doing
more for the general good of the country
by their honest thrift and indnstiy than
they will ever receive credit for. They are
greatly belied by tbe partisan press of the
North.
I heard more of Georgia polities in Wash
ington last winter than I have heard in
fifteen days intimate association with her

Reunion of tin 7th Georgia Regiment.
A few of the members of the 7th Geor
gia Regiment, Infantry, with Gen. G. T-
Anderson, tbpir old Brigadier, had a reun-
ion at Pease’s restaurant on; the 21st, the
anniversary of the first battle of Manassas,
in which that regiment took a conspicuous
part. The members present were Majors
H. H. Witt and John F. Kiser, Capt Wm,
Norman. Commissary, Orderly Sergeant
Samuel Hope, of Co. B-, Leonard Powell,
of Co. E. ; Captain C. K. Maddox and
Lieutenants W. L. Hubbard and Samuel
Hoyle, of Co. K. There are jgapy mom-
b ra of the regiment ip the city, but the
haste with which this day’s reunion was
gotten up prevented their being invited.
General Gartrell, their first Colonel, was
invited, bnt professional engagements pre
vented his presence.
Several hoers were passed in recalling
the incidents of the war in which they each
had taken a part, many of them aunsiog,
many sad, and all of them interesting.—
Tenderly they spoke of their fallen Colonel,
William T. Wilson, who fell at the seconc.
Manassas. He was the favorite of the reg
iment, and never will they forget his cheery
shouts and words of encouragement to “my
boys,” as they and he were seeking the
thickest of the fights. He is now asleep ~
Atlanta cemetery. No one’s loss and ab
sence from the reunion was regretted more.
Sergeant Hope drank to the memory oi
Maj- Eli Hoyle, who was promoted from
Private to Adjutant for being the first Con
federate to mount the guns of Rickets’
battery in position at (he first battle of Ma-
, He was soon afterwards eleoted
Major, and fell mortally wounded at Mai-
-vern Hill. “There was no braver soldier
than he, nor a more perfect gentleman.
He scorned everything mean and low.”
Lient. Sam’I R. Hoyle drank to tbe mem
ory of the dead of the old brigade. “They
lived freemen, they fought freemen, and
died freemen."
Tbe whole brigade will be invited to at
tend the reunion next year, and every an
niversary afterwards, as long as any of the
brigade survive.
To accomplish this and make the neces
sary preparations, the following Committee
was appointed:
Col. E. F. Hoge, 9th Ga.; Capt. Morrow,
11th Ga.; Col. Magill and Capt. Anderson,
1st Ga. Begitiars; Maj. H. H. Hitt and
Sergeant S. Hope, 7th Ga.; Col J. B. Tow
ers and Lieut B. T. Fouche, 8tb Ga.; and
Col. Jack Brown, of the 59th Ga.
General G. T. Anderson was elected
Chairman, and Capt. O. Maddox, Secretary
of tbe Committee. It is intended to keep
on tbe record the master rolls of etch com
pany, showing all the changes that took
place among the members, and any memory
or event connected with the history of the
brigade, that any member may reduce to,
writing and present to the Secretary; and'
the members are requested to prepare such
papers to bo read at the next meeting.
General Anderson then drank to the 7th
Ga, Regiment. “You were in all in thirty-
seven engagements, in thirty-five of whioh
I commanded yau. Yon were often called
on and never found wanting."
They then adjourned to the next annh
versary on July 21,

After all onr groveling desires to obtain
wealth, onr straggle after the slippery “ha s
of fortune,” our ambition to be greater and
richer than others we find that our aspira
tions reached to an nuworthy end, that the
wealth for whioh we toiled brought with it
no solid satisfaction. That the ambitious
hopes we indulged in were bat so many
mirages lifted in the aij, and that so far as
earthly happiness was involved, our wor
ship had been made to a false god.
So, too, it is with tbe votaries of fame
and of earthly distinction. Their superior
souls rise high above the ordinary walks of
man. Their aspirations reach ont fir be-
ymd the pale of human possibilities, and
they walk among their fellow men as Phil
lips said of Napoleon, “wrapped in the soli
tude of their own originality.” Bat this
superior endowment of intellect brings no
commensurate enjoyment. The grand
achievements of their genius are bat hollow
mockerier. The want of communion with
their fellow man unfits them for happiness,
and in the solitude of their own grandeur,
they are perhaps as wretched as he whose
utter worthlessness and insignificance makes
him a pariah of the land.
It is a remarkable and melancholy troth
that most men of transcendent genius or
talent have been adicted to the wine enp or
opium. This unnatural appetite may have
been, and doubtless was, dne to the want of
sympathy with those around. In the iso
lation of their own superiority, they were
wretched and impatient, and sought in tbe
excitement of the one, or the nepenthe of
the other, a relief from their own weaiy
selves.
If it is thus with wealth and power and
greatness, to what are we to look for enjoy
ment ? What earthly objects can we seize
upon to solace onr weariness and to bring
us a joy ?
The smiles of fortune are fickle and false,
the fame of the world is hollow and vain,
and where ean we expect to find
“Tho root lor which wo sigh t”
It can only bo found in the contempla
tion of the good, the beautifal and tbe
true.
In goodness, because it brings with it its
own reward. We are always happy as we
make others so; goodness stripped of all
external contiugences, divested of all for
eign attributes and restricted to its own
native and intrinsic worth, is always pleas
ing and grateful, It cannot be measured
by comparisons. That goodness is itself
mean, that is good, simply because sur*
rounded by meanness. Rut that goodness,
pare as the pearl in its own dark shell,
which depends for its reward, not upon the
gratitude of its beneficiaries, bnt its own
conscious sense of right, is an ever bubbling
fountain of joy, and its possession may defy
the frowns of fortune, tbe tannts of ingrat
itude, and the scoffs of society, for he car
ries within his own breast a talisman that
opens even the doors of happiness.
Of the beautifal, the young and gifted,
bat ill-fated Keats has saiJ;
“A thing of beauty is a joy forever.'
It mast be a heart dead to every emotion
of joy that can contemplate tbe beautiful
without feeling in its inmost depths a grate
ful sense of love and of joy rising np and
driving ont the colder thoughts of lifo.—
The harmonious blending of the lights and
shadows of an eve ring picture; the crim
son tints of the setting sun, the soft grey
of the coming twilight and the sombre
gloom of some mountain shadows stretch
ing far over the fields below, all melting iota
one beautiful perspective, may well call np,
in the appreciative sonl, feeling, at once so
varied and as happy.
The rich and varied beauties of the gar
den are pleasing alike in loveliness and in
odor! The triumphs of art, and the treas
ures of statuary, the matohless work of An
gelo, of Reynolds, of Rembrandt Peal, and
of Bierstadt, who can gaze unmoved upon
them, and not feel a joy beam in his heart.
And the true, not the good alone, not the
beantitnl, bnt the true as well, These
three are inseparable in character, and
so inseparable in their effects. If goodness
works a happiness, if the love of the beau
tiful fills the soul with pleasant emotions,
so does <he love of the trae.
Not only pleasing, but ennobling, the
trae man is a nobleman. No jewel in the
crown of monarehs shine with a brighter
lnftre than truth.
Pope traly says:
“An honest man is the noblest work of God."
To be honest one most be trae, with the
good to savor onr character, the beautiful
to adorn, and the true to establish, one may
well afford to despise tbe flauntings of wealth
and to pity the disquietudes of fame.

Mr, Thomas Saminerlin, living on Bine

rage near bis fathers residence a few days
ago, A difficulty had oeeorred in the cot
