The State Fair in IVIacon.
We did not have the pleasure of at
tending the State Fair, but front every
side we hear it spoken of with praise
and admiration. The crowd on sever-
al days was immense, and in a pecuni
ary point of view we learn that it has
been a grand success. The ladies’ de
partment is said to have been splendid ;
the show of stock and agricultural ma
chinery good. But the show of do
mestic fowls is spoken of as wonderful.
Cobb county won the county prize—
Savannah won the boat race and the
Savannah cadets won the prize as the
best drilled company.
Among the interesting features of
the Fair was the arrival and reception
of the Centennial Committee of Phila
delphia—au account of which will be
found in another column.
On the whole, we believe this has
been the most successful State Fair
ever held in Georgia. Every section
of the State seems well pleased, and
all are proud of this exhibition of the
resources of the grand old State. To
Mayor Hull’ and the different commit
tees of citizens of Macon belong great
praise and honor for their untiring and
successful exertions to make this Fair
an honor to the State.
Good Out of Evil.
We believe that much good often re
sults from financial disturbances like
the present. During the last political
campaign, the great monied power of
the North, the Bailroads, the Banks,
and the Speculators in stocks, com
bined to elect Gen. Grant. The great,
and almost the only argument used by
these men, was, that if Greely was
elected, the whole financial condition
of the country would be disturbed and
probably a financial crash would follow
but if Grant remained in power, the
financial affairs of the country would
not be disturbed, but everything
would go on prospering and to pros
per. Deceived and beguiled by this
plausible reasoning, tens of thousand
of men voted to sustain an adminis
tration which they knew was reeking
with corruption rather than endanger
the financial condition of the country;
but when they find that the whole
finance of the country has been
thrown into confusion by the misman
agement of those in authority, they
will probably be as anxious to turn out
these unprofitable servants, as they
were, to install them. In this way,
the financial crash may in the end
prove a blessing to the country. At
the South the planters have become so
strongly attached to the habit of plant
ing cotton, to almost an exclusion of
all other interests, that nothing but the
very low price of cotton, and almost
a famine for provision, will induce
them to change this ruinous habit. If
the present state of affairs should con
vince them of their error and induce
them to practice a more varied system
of farming and convince them to be
independent and prosperous they must
make their own provisions, then our
present misfortunes will not Ire in
vain, and our hard times will not be
an unmitigated evil. In this way both
the North and the South may in the end
be benelitted by the crash. The north
may learn that it is never safe or wise
to sustain corrupt politicians in power,
and that great wealth gotten by spec
ulation and fraud is not apt to last
long, and that honesty and economy is
the best policy alter all, and the
South that they cannot live on cotton
alone and that it is not safe or profita
ble to depend on other countries for
provisions, when we can raise them
for ourselves.
“ The Georgia Grange.”
We have received the first- number
of “ The Georgia Grange,” an agricul
tural paper published in the Franklin
Printing House, Atlauta, and sent to
members of Granges for $2.-50 per year,
and to outsiders fox $8.00 per year.—
The paper and printing of “ The
Grange” are excellent, and its agricul
tural articles and selections are good,
but its wit and humor rather stale and
flat.
The communication signed “J. S.
Lavender,” is full of good sense from
beginning to end, and we think it would
be a good idea for the “ Grange” to
keep it standing in its columns until
every farmer in Georgia can learn it
by heart. We don’t know Mr. Laven
der, but we should think from his writ
ing that he was a happy and prosper
ous planter, and if he has daughters we
predict they will make excellent wives.
We have made several selections
from “ The Grange,” and if each num
ber continues as good as the first, we
muBt admit that it is possible for a
good thing to come out of Atlanta.
We hope “ The Grange” will advo
cate the policy and profit of cotton
manufactories in Georgia.

Editor Union Recorder :
As a citizen and tax-payer ol this
State, I wish to enter my protest against
the Capital remaining in Atlanta, for
more reasons than one. It was re
moved from your city to Atlanta by
fraud, which has cost the State thou
sands of dollars, and if it remains there
will cost many thousand more annual
ly than it would it'it were in Milledge-
ville. We have a Capital building and
all other necessary buildings, and they
in good repair, in your city. The ex
penses of the Legislature in Milledge-
ville will be much less than in Atlanta.
Your society is much better and is
much more central. If the question
should ever come before the people
again on its own merits, and properly
understood, North Georgia would vote
for Milledgeville. This may appear
strange to some who have not mixed
with the people of North Georgia as
much as I have. I know what I say
to be so. I hope a convention of the
citizens, one or more from each coun
ty in the State, will hold a meeting
and take steps to bring this thing fair
ly and squarely before the tax-payers
o( the State. Can’t this be done ?—
I will never vote fora man if I know
it who is in favor of the Capital re
maining where it is.

Fires in Georgia and Florida.—
On the 30th ult. there was a large fire
in Americus, Sumter county, Georgia,
which consumed ten business houses.
Loss estimated at $120,000—covered
by insurance $50,275.
The Savannah News reports a large
fire in Madison, Florida, in which a
block of buildings were consumed.— 1
The principal sufferers were Williams
& Hawkins, Alexander Smith, Esq., of
Thomasville, Judge B. F. Tidwell, T.
L. Whitlock, Hundley & Osgood, and
E. Max & Co. We believe this is the
third time this unfortunate place has
been visited by destructive fires within
a few years.
Letter from Colquitt County.
From the Mncuti Telegraph & Messenger.

TIOXff or 1876.
Moultrie, Ga., Oct. 29th, 1873.
Editors Union Recorder :
Old Winter with his many “frozen-
hearted attendants ” is approaching ;
the mornings are chilly and the sun
shine feels good all day long. The
farmers are now fast housing the last
of their crops. In despite of a rainy
spring and wet summer and caterpil
lar Colquitt has done well in the crop
line. There has been more corn made
in the county than for a number of
years previous and the cotton crop is
about as large as usual. Cane is do
ing splendid and the potato crop is
large. Take it all in all, we of old
Colquitt are doing very well in the
provision line.
Sugar boilings have commenced and
the people are generally having a fine
time—quite sweet at least if it is very
sticky. The public spirit is showing
itself in making repairs, &c.', upon
the public buildings. The Court House
has been repaired, and is now to be
painted ; the work of painting is now
going on, and there are some other lit
tle improvements being talked of. We
look to the future and in prospective
see a brighter day for our little county.
We had the pleasure of attending
one of the grandest weddings of the
season on last Thursday evening. Miss
Susan J. Tucker, eldest daughter of
the lion. John Tucker, Representative
of Colquitt county was joined in the
holy bands of wedlock to Jas T. Nor
man, eldest son of Judge J. B. Nor
man—all of Colquitt. Any one that
is acquainted with the Hon. John
Tucker may know that all things were
in proper style at the wedding, and
the “ iufair” could not be excelled.—
Judge Norman simply spread himself,
and that is saying all that there is any
need to say in regard to the matter.—
The only drawback to the enjoyment
on Thursday evening at Mr. Tucker’s
consisted in a little disturbance made
by the Deputy Marshal, Jas. Murphy,
making the arrest of Mr. James Gay,
one o! the parlies against whom a war
rant was issued some time since by the
U. S. authorities for doing some little
something which they held to be in vi
olation of the enforcement act.
This arrest did not create a last
ing disturbance, however, and the
young people were soon as merry
as ever. The richest part, how
ever, about the whole affair, was that
the Marshal, after conducting his pris
oner down to Quitman, before the
Commissioner, became so elated or
something else by his success in mak
ing the capture, that he kicked up a
rumpuss and got put in jail himself.
This, we consider, the richest joke of
the season. The prisoner, Mr. Gay,
gave bond and got out by the time the
Marshal did. So Murphy had nothing
much to brag on, we think, at last.
The health of the people is gener
ally good ; but as Colquitt is prover
bially healthy, it is therefore useless
to make this remark. No shaking agues
or scorching fever ever molest the hap
py citizens of Colquitt. You may call
it poor in many things, but it certain
ly is rich in health, without which all
the wealth of the world cannot bring
enjoyment. J* T. J. C.
The President’s newly promulgated
scheme for building fine residences to.

ed by the Cincinnati Commercial in
these words; “The Government Archi
tect should be induced to design the
houses for Cabinet officers without
delay. They must be in granite, of
course. The Buries, Creswells, Aker-
maus, Williamses, Belknaps, Rich
ardsons and other great men of the
future should dwell in granite halls,
and their carriage horses should be
fed on gilt oats.

At an adjourned meeting of citizens
held at the office of the Executive of
the State Agricultural Association, in
the Fair Grounds at Macon, Ga., on
motion Hon. C. B. Cole was called to
the chair and F. J. Champion appoint
ed Secretary
Gov. Smith of Georgia, the Chair
man of the Committee on Resolutions,
then made the following report :
The committee charged with the du
ty of preparing matter for the consid
eration of an adjourned meeting of the
citizens of Georgia, beg leave to sub
mit the following preamble and reso
lutions referring to the Centennial Cel
ebration of 1870. ^
Whereas, the Congress of the United
States have passed an act for the
aid and encouragement of the proper
celebration of the one hundredth an
niversary of American independence,
and whereas, all the States of this Con
federation are invited to participate
therein.
Be it resolved, That the principles
enunciated and successfully vindicated
at the cannon’s mouth by our forefa
thers in 1776, are incontrovertible and
eternal in their truth, and essence, and
the people of Georgia to-day are still
animated by the same spirit and love
of liberty.
2. That we claim a common heri
tage in the past glorious and illustri
ous traditions of this great Republic,
and as one of the old thirteen have the
right, and will exercise the privilege
of joining most heartily in those im
posing ceremonies and that grand dis
play of material and intellectual pro
gress which is to take place at the
forthcoming anniversary.
3. Resolved, That we are prepared
to indorse any reasonable action on the
part of the Legislature and government
of Georgia looking to her proper rep
resentation at the grand exposition of
the arts, sciences, manufactures and
products of the Union.
4. That we recommend that repre
sentative body and peculiar institution
of our people, the State Agricultural
Association, to take the initiative in
this movement, and as citizens and in
dividuals pledge ourselves to sustain
any proper action they may take in the
premises.
5. Resolved that a cordial welcome
is hereby extended to each member of
the distinguished commission from the
National Centennial Board, whose er
rand among us knows no North, no
South, no East, and no West.
Hon. A. O. Bacon moved the adop
tion of the above preamble and reso
lutions, which, when submitted to the
house, were carried unanimously.
Ex-Mayor Fox, of Philadelphia, then
tendered to the meeting in graceful
terms, his warm appreciation for him
self and friends, of the flattering recep
tion and many courtesies which had
been extended to the National Centen
nial Committee by the authorities and
citizens of Macon. His excellency,
Hon. James M. Smith, the Governor
of Georgia, being called upon, res
ponded in a very felicitous manner, to
the remarks of Mayor Fox, who was
the chairman of the Centennial Com
mittee.
He said, at the outset, though he
was not of the number, many South
ern men if not actually opposed to the
Centennial Celebration, regarded it
with distrust and indifference. But
more recent and correct information as
to its aims and objects, had removed
this quasi antagonism, and he believed
the people were, as they should be, in
perfect accord with the movement.—
He was ready to follow the lead of his
constituents and give the imprimature
and earnest co-operation of the great
State over which he presided, to the
noble work of restoring peace and har
mony to adistracted and afflicted coun
try.
The Governor’s remarks were sensi
ble and patriotic, and met with a cor
dial response from all present. W T hen
he concluded, Mr. Campbell, late Min
ister to Norway and Sweden, was in
vited-to speak, but said he had nothing
further to add to the aigument of Gov.
Smith, but would invite his gifted
friend, the Speaker of the House of
Representatives in the Legislature of
Georgia, Hon. A. O. Bacon, to give
his views on this interesting subject.
Capt. Bacon, after repeated calls,
addressed the meeting in bis happiest
style. He said previous to this time lie
had not only cared nothing for the Cen
tennial movement, but had actually
conceived a prejudice and dislike to it.
But the speeches of Mr. Campbell, Gov.
Patten and others the evening before,
and personal intercourse with the gen
tlemen of the Committee, had removed
every shadow of a doubt on his mind,
and now he was prepared to co-operate
most heartily with the movers of this
national enterprise. The eloquent ora
tor dwelt at length upon the power
and resources of Georgia, and said he
was disposed to differ slightly from
Gov. Smith in his expression that she
ought to be made the Empire State of
the South, because be believed, in en
ergy, manufactures, wealth and real
progress she already occupied the head
of the column. He must apologize,
however, for the egotism of this re
mark, to ex-Gov. Patton, who he now
remembered represented a sister State.
But had not the gentleman acknowl
edged that Alabama was the daughter
of Georgia, and surely the child should
concede precedence and superiority to
its own parent. Mr. Bacon made many
salient and telling points in his speech
and fully sustained his reputation for
forensic ability. He was succeeded
by
GENERAL COLQUITT,
who delivered a masterly add|p88 in
behalf of the material interests of the
whole country. If the present move
ment had no political significance,
and was free from the corrupting influ
ence of rings and cabals and the talis-
manic power of greenbacks or gold
(as he believed it was,) he could afford
it his unqualified support. The Gen
eral paid a high compliment to the
fraternal spirit and patriotism of our
guests, and this speech was warmly
applauded.
Mayor Fox then asked that certain
resolutions which had been adopted by
the Centennial committee might be
read, and on motion it was resolved
that they and the action of the citi
zens’ meeting should be published in
tbe Telegraph ^Messenger, and all the
papersjof the State be requested topopy,
city of Macon, and to tbe Committee
of Reception, as well as to the people of
Georgia, our most grateful thanks for
the cordial, magnanimous and hearty
welcome with which we have been
received—for kindness that made us
feel at home, and that we are indeed
citizens of one country—for attention
which enabled us at their great State
Fair to examine and admire the va
ried productions, skilled labor, as well
as the unlimited resources of the great
State of Georgia—for hospitality which
made us all regret that time has lim
its—and for the cultivation of a strong
desire to return their welcome in our
own homes, among our own people,
in the city of Philadelphia.
Resolved, That our acknowledge
ments are justly due and are hereby
most cordially made to ex-Governor
R. M. Patton, of the United States
Centennial Board of Finance, repre
senting the State of Alabama in that
important body, lor his courtesy in
giving us his presence on this occasion,
and for his participation with us in
presenting and advocating the inter
ests of the Centennial, and especially
in calling the attention of the South
ern people to the propriety of fully ex
hibiting their vast mineral, agricultur
al and mechanical interests at tbe ap
proaching exhibition, and threby be
coming closely identified with this
important National enterprise.
From the Courier-Journal.
The “Truly Loyal,”
Every now and then the country
has some new proof of the stupidity
of the everlasting vengeance policy on
which the Administration speakers
and journals try to rally the voters to
the support of the “truly loyal” ticket
at every election. This rallying cry has
usually been a potent one, and the
consequence is that the South, contain
ing a very large proportion of the
territory and population of the coun
try, has >>8 little voice in the manage
ment of public affairs as Ireland has
in the conduct of affaire of Great Bri
tain. Common sense would indicate
that the true policy of the National
Government would be to give every
State which acknowledges its author
ity full control of its local affairs and
to treat it as a political equal, instead
of a province subject to be buffeted
and oppressed by physical force.
While the Administration has been
thus fastening Ames upon Mississippi,
Clayton upon Arkansas, Kellogg upon
Louisiana, and Bullock upon Georgia,
it has been lavish of its official patron
age to East Tennessee lovalists. Re
cent developments made by Col. New-
come, one of the chiefs of the United
States secret service, and his corps of
detectives in that locality snow that
it is quite possible fora man to be a
noisy loyalist and still have little re
gard for the interests of the Govern
ment or the purity of its currency.
The account given by the New York
Herald’s East Tennessee correspondent
of the arrest of a large number of cir
culators of counterfeit mouey in East
Tennessee, several of them holding
responsible Government offices, has
been given in our columns. The prin
cipal points of the Herald letter are
confirmed by a Knoxville correspond
ent of that stanch Administration
journal, the Cincinnati Gazette. It
appeals that “truly loyal” postmasters,
a “truly loyal” State Prosecuting At
torney, a “truly loyal” United States
Marshal for the Eastern district of
Tennessee, a “truly loyal” Clerk of
the Circuit Court, and divers other
“truly loyal” office-holders, have been
arrested, not by malignant rebels, but
by the officers of the Federal Govern
ment, for engaging in one of the most
systematic and extensive organizations
for the circulation of spurious coin
and counterfeit legal tenders and
National Bank notes that the country
has ever known. This association of
East Tennessee aud North Carolina
counterfeiters, in the skill with which
its plans were laid and in the extent
of its operations, throws into total
eclipse tbe operations of John A* Mur
rell and other desperadoes who used
to be the scourge of tbe South and
Southwest. And this wholesale de
basement of the national currency is
instituted and carried forward in the
very heart of East Tennessee, and
many of its principal operators are
men who have been rewarded with
office for their loyalty to the exclusion
of many intelligent, sober, orderly
God-fearing citizens, who pay their
taxes and observe all the laws, but
who having ten years ago arrayed
themselves against the Government,
as the citizens of Pennsylvania once
did, are proscribed and denounced by
the everlasting vengeance party as
proper objects of political ostracism
and damnation to the end of their
lives* Is it too much to say that this
is shortsighted stupidity on tbe part
of the Administration? Do not the
numerous defalcations and embezzle
ments of its office holders in the North
and such exposures and arrests as are
being made in East Tennessee satisify
the people that vociferous loyalty is
not necessarily connected with all
other virtues? ’ Let us have fair deal
ing and impartial justice for the South
as well as the North, and tbe offices
will be filled by more competent and
trustworthy men. To say, with the
Morton and Cameron ring, that men
who perform all tbe duties of good
neighbors and exemplary citizens are
unfit to hold office, because of their
connection years since with a political
insurrection, is an absurdity which is
too preposterous for any sane man to
believe, and a blunder whose tendency
is to put dishonest partisans in office.

A medicine that has done more than all tbe preacrip
tions of the phannaoopnia to protect the human sys
tem against the bodily ills superinduced by unhealthy
surroundings, is certainty worthy of univereat confi
dence. It is mainly on account ot iu extraordinary pre
ventive properties that Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters is
so exceedingly popular in localiUss subject to the visi
tation of miasmatic fevers and other diseases pro
duced by empoisoned air. A family that has escaped
sickness during a sickly season in consequence of us
ing the Bitten as a safeguard, is a living advertise
ment of tbe virtues of the preparation. The whole
neighborhood realize the fact. ’‘I couldn't have be
lieved it,” says one. “I scarcely credited the adver
tisements, bnt one must behove what one seas,” says
another. ‘‘It is th

the result is that —
first law of nature, induces three-foorths of that com
munity to obtain a supply of the great vegetable anti
dote before the next sickly season sets in. In whiter
when the system requires extra vigor and elasticity to
enable it to baffle the effects of damp and oold, the
Bitter* will be found particularly serviceable. Rheu
matism will not bo apt to fasten upon muscles and
aerves that have been braced up by this excellent in

PRATT’S ASTRAL. OIL
Absolutely safe. Perfectly odorless. Alwayn uni
form. Illuminating qualities superior to gas. Burns
in any lamp without danger of exploding or taking
fire. Manufactured expressly to displace the use of
volatile and dangerous oils. Its safety under every
possible test, and its perfect burning qualities, are
proved by its continued use in over 300,000 families.
Millions of gallons have beeu sold aud no accident
—directly or indirectly— bos ever occured from
burning, storing ot handling it.
The immense yearly loss to lifo and property, result
log from tlie use of cheap and dangerous oils in the
United States, is appalling.
The Insurance Companies and Fire Commissioners
throughout the country recommend the ASTRAL as
the best safeguard when lamps ai e used. Send for
circular.
