Tho Legislature—The Supremo Court— State Aid to It. Roads—Common School System~-State Road—The Banks, &c. Both branches of the Legislature will convene in Milledgeville, Ga., on Wednesday the third day of November next, and it is expected that many important measures touching the interest and prosperity of tho State, will be brought be fore that body for their cautious and wide de liberation. Among this number, the law organ- izing the Supremo Court, should be carefully revised and studiously corrected. It will be expected that the committee on the Jud'ciarv, New Advertisements. Andrews, Miller ds Co., have opened a store in this city, and have received an entire new supply of Saddles, Bridles, Trunks, Whips of all kinds, Harness, Leather, and all other arti cles usually kept in their line, which they offer at reasonable rates at their store, next to Dur ham's Isabella House. Our readers will notice the advertisement of Jared Irwin, who offers several very valuable plantations for sale.

The Next Session—To our Patrons and Friends. For the next few weeks we expect to be in Mil ledgeville at our post, during the session of the Leg islature, and while there, we shall endeavor to fur nish our readers with a correct report of all the proceedings of that tody, of a general character, to gether with such other news as mny he of interest during the session In our absence Col Alex. S. Lippitt, has kindly consented to conduct the local Editorial department of this paper. All letters on business should be addressed to the “Albany Patriot,” and not to it Editor. Mr. James Matheney will at all times be at the office, and ready to transact any business connect cd therewith. In this connection we beg to return our profound acknowledgements to our numerous friends, for their kind exertions in behalf of the in terest of the Patriot. Since wc have taken charge of the paper, our subscription list has been greatly enlarged, while very few have withdrawn, and those withdrawals are, with ono or two exceptions, from the former “Free List. The business of the office is daily increasing, and thus far has surpassed our most sanguine ex pectations. If our patronage continues, wc will endeavor by the first of January next, to arrange fora new Press, with a view to furnish our read ers with a larger, and we trust, a more interesting paper. Thus far our course has been approved by the intelligent masses, and we have gained the entire applause and approbation of our friends, and in £u turo we shall devote all our energies to make the Patriot an interesting Political and general ticks Journal, which shall rank second to no piper in Georgia. .

Early Piety.—The follotving story is acknowl edged a “good one,” but we have never before seen it in print: A few years siuce, some rogueiah boys in a town not a thousand milos distant from tho capital of New Hampshire, persuaded Joseph N , or, as be was generally called, “Joe,” to attend Sunday School. Joe was an overgrown, half witted, pro fane lad, and the boys had anticipated considera ble fun out of him; but the answers to the various questions propounded were given so readily that no one could for a moment euppose that he was not fully versed in theological lore. Joe was duly ushered in, and placed on a settee in front of the one on which his triends were seat ed, and the recitation commenced. The teacher first questioned the class on their egular lesson, and then turned to Joe. “My friend,'’ said the teacher, ‘ who made the world we inhabit ?” Eli!” said Joe, turning up his eyes like an ex piring calf. ‘Who made the world we inhabit?” Just as he was probably about to give the an swer, one of the boys seated behind insetted a pin into bis (Joe’s) pants, about nine inches below the ornamental buttons of his coat. God Almighty !” answered Joe, in an elevated tone, at the same time rising from his seat. “That is correct,*’ replied the teacher; ‘‘but it is not necessary that you should rise in answering A sitting posture was just as well.” Joe was again seated, and the catechism proceed cd. “Who died to save the world ?” The pin was again inserted, and Joe replied— “Jesus Christ!” in a still louder voice, rising, as be fore, from bis seal “Thai is also correct, but do not manifest so much feeling; do be more composed and reserved in your manner/’ said (he teacher, in an .expostulating tone. After Joe had calmed down, the examination ent on. “Wh3t will be the final doom of all wicked men?” was the subject now up for consideration ; and the pin was again stuck in, Joe thundered out, w a higher elevation oi his body—“Hell and dam MaH Steamer Ilarriet Sank.

Personal, During tho past week our city has been alive with strangers, among them wo were glad to meet many of our friends. Col. A. M. Speer, the present efficient clerk of tho House of Rep resentatives, appears in tho enjoyment of good health, with his usual flow of “fine spirits.”— The Col. we learn is spoken of as the next Democratic candidate for Congress from the third Congressional District. Col. Samuel Hall and Col. T. W. Montfort, the latter is the pres ent able Solicitor General ofthe Macon Circuit, and is a candidate for re-election without oppo sition. We'll stand a Beaver that the Col’s, election is certain. Col. J. W. Hancock, the able Editor of the Sumter Republican, and Col. A. R. Lamar, formerly of the Savannah Geor gian, both these gentlemen appear in excellent health, hot unlike most Editors, better able to eat their allowance than they are to get it.— Hon, A. P. Powers and Hon. Henry G. Lamar, the present Judge of the “Macon Circuit."— The Col. presides w»th great ability, and is a decided favorite with the Bar and people. Cob John M. Giles, of Houston, we were also pleas ed to see at our office. He is tho candidate for Judicial honota in opposition to Col. Lamar of the "Macon Circuit/* Col, Giles is a high toned gentleman, a sound lawyer, and strictly honorable in all his transactions, but as both gentlemen are ofihe same political views, we trust they will submit their claims to ihe decis ion of a fair and impartial Convention of the party. Marty anxious inquiries were made by 4jp friends of CoL O. A. Lochrane, who was ex- ■peoted Id 1° attendance at Worth Superior £ogrt. RJa absence was regretted, as his usual nothing but a complete mass of corruption, rot tenness and ruin. We have confidence in the present Legisla ture, and feel ussured that they will act on all these important measures with prudence and caution, and represent, regardless of conse quences, the best interest of the people in the premises. South-Western Georgia, Again. It was not our infection to allude to this qustion again at this time, and only do so, from the fact that certain Editors have thought proper to magify the views contained in our former article, to suit their own taste. ’ We remarked in that article, that South-West ern Georgia had been ungenerously dealt with, in Executive appointments to offices of profit. In re ply, the Macon (Ga.) Telegraph, gives us a list of Georgia appointments by Congressional Districts, but fails to furnish us with the proper residence of each appointee. As we remarked in opr former article, that at a proper lime we would allude to this subject again, we will at present dismiss the discussion, merely remarking that the city of Columbus must not be -considered the whole of the second District, and the rest of South-Western Georgia thrown in for good measure. At present we feel compelled to pocket the appointment of Benjamin May,Esq., as a favor, and promise at a proper time to allude to the question of preferment again. We will here add by way of a wind up, that from conversations with, and numerous private let ters received from influential citizens throughout reaches from Pole to Pole. This is one of the “Signs” of the times.

Judicial Convention in Worth. A potlion of the Democratic party, of Worth county, having met this day at Isabella, for the purpo&eol nominating Delegates to represent this county, in a Convention to be held forjudge and Solicitor General of tho Macon Circuit. On mo tion the Hon. Wm. A. Harris, was called to the Chair, and W. L. Hunt, Esq., requested to act as Secretary. The Chairman on taking his seat, explained the object of the meeting in a few aod pertinent re marks. On motion of Francis B. Lippitt, Esq, it was Re solved, that the Chairman appoint four Delegates to cast the vote of this county in said Judicial Con vention—whereupon the Chair appointed F. B. Lippitt, W. L- Hunt, Daniel Henderson, and Lew is M. Simmons, Esqs. On motion of James G. Brown, Esq . the ap poinlmenl of Delegates was ratified by the meet ing. The meeting then recommended the third Tuesday in November as a proper time, and Ogle thorpe as a suitable place for the Convention to meet. On motion of Lewis S. Simmons, the Albany Patriot, and State Rres*, be requested to publish these proceedings, and that this Convention do now adjourn. W. A. HARRIS, Ch’n, W. L. Hunt, Sec’y. The Exchange Bank of Griffin.—The Gov ernor has directed the Solicitor General of the cir cuit to institute proceedings against this bank, for the purpose of ha.viug it* charter declared to be for feited as the law .directs. The proceedings, we learo, have been instituted on the complaint of Mr. Jones, the editor of the Augusta Chronicle and Sentinel, the bank having proved default on a de maud made by him upon it for the redemption of one of its one dollar “promises tp psy.'*—Empire Slate, ,—and stated that he was ready and meet an investigation if it were made according to the New Testament. 'The question was put after some discussion on the motion to remand the whole proceedings on ti e ground of informality, and lost,—11 for remf tiding, and D8 for immediate trial. Mr. Graves, after a few remarks, stated that could not fellowship with the Church any more, anil announced his withdrawal. The Moderator state!! that Mr.GitAVEshim- self had held that the only way to get out of the Baptist Church was by death, or exclusion. Mr. Graves claimed that when a Church amples upon the law of Christ, it becomes a faction, and not a church. On a motion to adjourn, tho congregation were requested to remain after adjournment, and those who had voted against the immedi ate trial of Mr. Graves organized another meet- A paper was then read, which claimed that the persons whose names were appended constituted the First Baptist Church, and that the majority who voted for sustaining the charges, were factionist. This statement was signed by about 20 members of the First Bap- tist Church. Mr. Graves then requested tho body to call a council of two ministers from each Church in the association, to investigate the charges against him. Tho meeting then adjourned to meet Sunday afternoon. On the next day, those who were for imme diate trial proceeded with an examination, and on the question, whether Mr. Graves was guilty of the first charge (as published in my last let ter) there was a unanimous vote in the affirma tive. The investigation will be continued to night. Hon. A. H. Colquitt-—We copy the fol lowing from the Atlanta Daily Intelligencer “We are glad to see that this gentleman has been nominated by the Democratic party of Baker County, to fill the vacancy occasioned by the cutting off the residence ofthe old Sena tor, Mr. Cumliie, into the now county of Mitch ell. It is gratifying that such a man as Mr. Colquitt, will occupy a seal in the Senate during the approaching session. Already versed in the Legislation of Congress, by a membership of several years in the House of Representatives, he will be ablo to bring all the experience ac~ quired in that field to bear upon the measures suitable and necessary for the good of the State oDGegrgia.

I would not die in Autum, When new-mown hay smells sweet, And little pigs are rooting round For something nice to eat. Tia then the huntsman’s wild alloo, la heard along the glen, And oysters gin to fatten up— I would noi perish then, I would not die in Winter— For one might freeze to death, Whan blustering boreas sweeps around, And takes away oue’a breath, When sleigh-bell* jingle—horse* snort, And buck-wheat cakes are tall; In fact, this is a right good world—* I would not die at all. “Ir a dogge's tail is kut owf entirely, will it not interfere with his locowmoshun ?" Not eggsact- ly; it might not effect his carriage but 'twould en tirely stop his waggih ?’* Magistrte.—“VVhat brought you here!” Pris oner.—“Two police men, your honor.” Then I sup pose liquor had something to do with Valuable Plantation for 23^.3L.E;.
