THURSDAY, OCTOBER 7, 1858.. OCT Our Prices Current and correspondent ‘ Ned,” and other reading matter, has been un avoidably crowded oat of this issue. ' Female School. Miss S. A. Hobbt is deairons of opening a Fe male School in this city, in which all the branches of a complete'education will be taught, including Frrnch, Music, Drawing, dtc. Her school will open on Monday the 19th instant, should a liberal number of pupils be engaged. Persons wishing to engage pupils caii find Miss II. at the resilience of Dr. Dou- las. Miss Hobby lias had several years experience as a teacher, and any references required will be given. Thaiks. We return onr acknowledgement! to Mr. L. E. Welch, of this city, for the eery acceptable preient in the shape of e neat and beautiful Diamond Breast Pin. Mr. Welch’a extensive Jewelry Establishment is every way worthy of Albany, and we wish him entire success in his business arrangements—and may we add anti- cipaled matrimonial affairs. The Convention. Remember the Convention to nominate can* didates for Judge and Solicitor of the S. W. Circuit, meets in this city on Tuesday, the 12th of October. We hope to see a full attendance of the delegates, and trnst the proceedings of the Convention will be characterized with har mony and good feeling. The county meeting assembles in this eit v on Saturday next, the 9th ins!., to appoint dele gates to said Convention, and we hope to see a full tnrn out on that occasion. The Meeting will be held at the Court House at 11 o'clock, A. M. The Bonkaa Dlnner-~The EdgefleM Ad vertiser an* Capt. V. M. Robert. We copy in this bane the letter of onr es teemed fellow citilen, Capt. U. M- Robert, in reply to an invitation to attend a compliments ry dinner given by tbe^ftienda, of thb v HoO. M. L. Bonham, of South Carolina. The letter of Capt, Robert is characteristic of bis manly straightforward way of speaking, and we think be speak* the full sentiments of a heart glowing with Southern pride and warm for Southern Rights when be says "As a Southern rights man 1 feel a deep interest in yonr festiv ity and iho occasion which produces it, and as a native South Carolinian; I have a feeling of devotion and atlacbmeut beyond my power to express.” His allusion to the course of Senator Ham mond, only expresses an opinion which every citizen has a right to entertain. We feel as sured, however, that his sentiments were not the result of bitterness of feeling, but expressing an opinion against the supporters of a measure which he honestly considers an evil to the South. Capt. Robert is an intelligent planter residing near this city—is not an office seeker, and does oot desire to be directly connected with politi csl matters, further than doty requires of s good citizen. The Edgefield Advertiser takes issue with the letter of Capt. Robert in a respectful, able and dignified article, and we regret the length alone, forbids its publication. In commenting npon the closing sentiment of Mr. Robert’s let ter, the Advertiser says ' [Mr. Robert has doubtless discovered nefore this, that hit ose of our Congressman's name in this invidious sentiment is wrong. If be has read that gentleman’s speech, and noted the didates for this District for Judge and Solicitor. We do not fear bat what these gentlemen, if nominated and elected, will wear the honors with becoming dignity, and their nets' will aland the teet and scrutiny of any Jadicial tribunal. Onr correspondent (who la a prominent man) says—”1 hope at the next Gubernatorial Con vention the claima of the wire grass section, will be properly recognized, isc.” We heartily endorse this sentiment. The claims of the peo ple of Sooth Western Georgia to office, and preferment seem to be entirely overlooked, and will continue to be, ao long as they remain on- concerned in the matter. Where, we ask, is the solitary Executive appointment to any office of profit from Sooth Western Georgia t Not one. While swarms of hungry bees from Cherokee and the Northern counties, are sacking the Treasury Pap through the influence of Execu tive patronage. This is neither right nor just, The claims of our section should not be disre garded to the advantage of another, and we hope the next Convention will take this matter into consideration, and nominate no man for the office of Governor who is disposed to make socb a wreckless discrimination. This section is daily growing in wealth and importance, and our counties are burlhened with a heavy State tax, and by this means the Treasury is sustain ed, while some of the Northern counties do not deposit an amount sufficient to pay thrir repre sentatives in the Legislature. South Western Georgia ongbt to command any political in fluence she may desire. At a future time we may recnr to this question again. New Advertisements. In this issue may be seen the new advertise ment of D. Alayer is Bros., who have just re- [Coopton(eptud.l - . Worth Cooimr, Ga., I Sep. 28th, 1858.) Dear Cot:—I embrace the first opportunity since being delegated, to say to the citizens of the Macon Jadicial Circuit, that the report that Col. T. W. Alontfort had declined a re-election to' the Solicitorahip of said Circuit la January 1899, is false.. He is a candidate, and should there be a Convention to nominate Judge and Solicitor, his claims will be urged by his many friends. If there should be no Convention, then he is an independent candidate, and in making this announcement, 1 must say that we of these parte, are heartily rejoiced at the news, and will give him a good vote at the election, for withont meaning any disparagement to others, I do say that as a prosecuting officer, a sound lawyer, a perfect gentleman, he has not his su perior in the State. Taking Col. Alont fort’s age iuto consideration, for he is yet young— yet he is by no means a Norice in legal lore— and meet him who will, in legal debate, he meets ‘‘a foeman worthy of his steel.” lie never is at a loss at any point sprang upon him. As you of the South-Western Circuit, with the distinguished jurist and statesman, R. H. Clark, as your Judge, and the clever and tal ented Ely as your Solicitor, I have no doubt but what all of the several candidates in your District are able and upright lawyers, but I have no personal acquaintance with any hut the Hon. R. H. Clark and Col. Ely—of them I speak from personal knowledge, and I assert without the fear of contradiction, that they have few equals in tliu State. My feelings, as a cit izen of the State, are warmly enlisted for them, and I would be proud to cast my vote fur them, were I a member of the Circuit. I hope at the next Gubernatorial Convention, that the claims of the wire grass will be properly recognized, and that Col. Clark or Colquitt, may be our standard bearer for the high position of Gov ernor, and then count me in. Yoors in haste, WOOL HAT.

From the Edgefield (S. C.) A dvertiser. Letter of Capt. U. HI. Robert to the Bonham Dinner. Heatjimoor, Dougherty Co. Ga. Gentlemen: Yours ol the 10th inst., inviting my presence at a dinner to be given by the “Citizens of Edgefield,” to their immediate Representative, the Hon. M. L. Bokhan, was duly received. the from going further and impugning his motives The Cotton Crop—The Market. Notwithstanding our farmers sre nisking an abundance of every thing usually grown upon the farm, yet the crops, and particularly that of cotton, will not yield at much by a good deal as was thought it would some two months ago. We feel no hesitancy in saying that we believe the rust has cut ofT the cotton crop in thia conn- ty at least one-third from former anticipations. Some crops have passed apparently uninjured— whilst others have been stripped of all its late fruit, and the (talk, in many instances, killed to the ground, and on all these spots that have been visited by the rust, of course the crop is done. Wo sre glad to see our farmers bringing tbeir cotton and disposing of it here—it is right they should do so—they can clear more money by selling their produce in ibis market than ihev can by shipmeut to Macon or Savannah. By bringing their cotton here they are at no ex pense whatever—no risk of fire, dec., to run by shipment, and if they are not disposed to sell their cotton at present prices, we have two large and comoiudions ware houses, who have busi ness men at tbeir bead—who will most cheer' fully and eagerly serve them—and our mer. chants generally will greet them with a smilo > give them the latest news, and sell them goods of every description a little cheaper than they can buy them in any other market. We boast of our market because we know it deserves the praise of all. Our buyers have money in abnn- dance, and they are willing and anxious to pay the “top of the market” for all kitlds of produce. But this is not all, it is the duty of every far mer who owns property in thia section, to bring his cotton and his influence here—by this be increases our trade—gives note to oor land, and a general additional value to every species of property. Suppose the farmers were all to ship their cottou from this place, the conse quences that would follow is plain—in a ahort time we would have no Banks, no money, no merchants, or any thing of the kind, add the farmer would have to jump on the ears and go to a foreign market for any and every little fam ily want. Again we tay, we are glad to seo our farm- era evincing such a desire to raise and establish our home market. We have but few, if any farmera in market distance, that are ao anxious to gain a reputation by shipping their produce to a foreign market, but let Ibu farmer try it, when he counts the expenses, the trouble, dan. gen and risks, we say be will be eonvinced we are right. To try it it to be convinced. imputation here, where onr Senator’s lofty in dependence of character, and proud content ment with the lot of a Sontbern gentlemen, are •o well known. Air. Robert is as much mista ken in bis estimate of Governor Hammond’s sentiments as he i* in hi> appreciation of that statesman’s political orthodoxy. We have laid enough, but not more than seemed to oa called for by this attack npon an honored Senator of onr State. In repelling it, wo do not question the worth of .Mr. Robert as a true Southron ; neither do we implicate the gentlemen of the Bonham dinner in any degree of hostility to Governor Hammond. Applaud ing his Senatorial coarse as we do, it is not to be expected that we should quietly poblisb any thing so decidedly condemnatory of that course as is this lefter of Mr. Robert.” We are pleased that the Editor of the Ad vertiser does not question the worth of Mr. Itobeit ss a “true Southron,’’ for such would be an imputation reaching beyond the bounds of justice. There is no one troer to his country and his country rights, than the gentleman ml laded to. AVe are not the apologists of others, for an apology would be unnecessary, as both the let ter and Editorial are written in a manly, digni fied and respectful tone. AVe are authorized however, by Capt. Robert, to say that be en tertains a high veneration for Gen. Hammond as a distinguished Statesman, and did not in (end to impugn his mo'ives, hut the acts of every public man is public properly, and when those acta are not admired, the public have a right to attack them. AVe desire to congratulate the Editor of the Advertiser on bis able defence of the position of Gen. Hammond, and trust that the Hon. Sen ator may never prove recreant to the interest of the South, or betray the confidence reposed by a South Carolina consti tnency.

A heated contest is now going on in Penn- sylvania and Illinois, and we incline to the opin ion that both States will repudiate the Douglas- iles, and sustain the Administration.

As a Southern rights man, I teel a deep interest in your festivity, and the occasion which produces it and as a native South Carolinian, I have a feeiin, of devotion and attachment beyond my power to express. I am not a politician, and in no way con nected with places of political promotion, and it is not expected that I should, in accepting your invi tation. enter into a discussion of political matters. You will permit me however to say a few words touching the present condition of the South. I regard the so called Conference Bill as violative of the Kansas Nebraska act, as yet another eurren der of Southern rights, as full of deception, sustain ed by legislative trickery, and as a blemish upon the reputation of every Southern matt who voted for it. After that vote was taken, I regarded ' the Southern rights party in the Democratic elements as reduced to two men out of our entire delegation in Congress. One of these was the noble aud gal lant Quitman who has* since gone- to receive his reward ’*of well done good and faithful servant”— for after so much fidelity—in the midst of so much desertion —Heaven cannot close its gates on his immortal spirit 7'he other was the true and noble Bokhan, who now stands alone, among Southern Representatives, but is surrounded and _ sustained by nearly all the Sooth ; and her gallant people feel that he is dear to their hearts and to their homes ! You cannot, within the purview of our Republican simplicity, and independence, honor him too high 1 y• While I am so elated with your immediate Rep resentative, you must not consider me disrespect ful, if out of the abundance of my Southern heart, I say Senator Hammond has disappointed the just ex pectations of his warm Southern friends. That he should have voted for the Conference Bill is a small matter compared with the motives which influenc ed him, as exemplefied in the report of his late speech at Beech Island. That speech is eminently Union, and transcendentally pacific. Coming from , N J Whitlock] who was to wear “Calhoun’s mantle,” it | j Bi^ck***®* 1 advises me that South Carolina must look else- u Einstein* where, for the man to keep alive ^and active the R J Hill, principles of that great Statesman. j ThLilHuft It is the more mortifying that the Senator is not - — - alone, in his lowering of the Southern standard, and which is not to revive again until a Black Re publican shall be elected President, and “there ts a repetition of the offence.” We see Senator Hunter, through the “Richmond South,” and Jefferson Da vis, iu his own proper person joining in this cry of j Union—that “masked battery Irom behind which j the rights of the South are to be assailed.” And even the distinguished author of this latter senti ment, seems to have his ponderous brain opiated with the same delightful recreation, while old Buck pals him on the “back and calls him my friend Tombs.*' I do not include in this category.
