Dr. Kimbro is too well known in rthis communiiy to need any commendation from 8—having done business iu our town for several years past—but, for the benefit of those at a dis tance we would say that this is one of the most reliable firms in Atlanta. He is associated with one of the largest manufacturing houses in P, ilu- tlelpliia, and is able to sell goods us low us any house in the oouutry. They are now receiving and opening t heir stock, which is not surpassed by any in the country.— Call and examine their stock, as they mean what they say in regard to low prices. fF3r~ La Gbanoe, Ga., August Hist, 1859.— Hr.

Wlmt object is to be gained by repeatedly asserting that Tennessee, Minnesota, and other States which liavo taken no notion, have fully accepted the amendment, passes conjecture. The action taken thus far is ns follows; North Carolina, ratified March 5. West Virginia, ratified March 3. Massachusetts, ratified March 12. Wisconsin, ratified March 5. Louisiana, ratified March 1. Maine, ratified March 9. South Carolina, ratified March 10. Pennsylvania, ratified March 20. Arkansas, ratified March 15. Connecticut, ratified May 13. Florida, ratified in Juno. Illinois, ratified March 5. Nevada, ratified March 1. New Hampshire, ratified July 1. New York, ratified April 11. Michigan, ratified. Alabama, said to be ratified. Missouri, assumed to ratify March I. Did not act upon the second section. Kansas, assumed to ratify May 27. The sec ond section was imperfect. Nebraska, assumed to rntify. Certificate on file at the State department is informal aud in sufficient. Rhode Island, the Senate ratified May 27.— Tho amendment will probably be rejeoied be cause the Rhode Island Radicals believe that under it thoy can no longer disfranchise their Irhh Catholic laborers. Indiana, assumed to ratify May 14. No quo rum present. Dolewarc, rejected. Kentucky, rejected. This makes only 22 States that can possibly be ffagi. Georgia Preii Cttaventlon.

On Constitution, By-Laws and Rules; 5. On the Press. Major S:eele amended the motion: That the committees report to the Convention during the next session, which will assemh e some tiny designated by the President, at Macon during the week of tne Fair in November. On motion of Col. Styles, Mr. Fleming, of the Charleston t \ntrler and New Yo-k World were in vited to take a seat in the Convention. Col. Fulton, of Clarke, delivered a message from Messrs. Glenn, Wright &. Carr, to visit their wurcroonis and examine a cotton press. — Acrnptud, On motion of Col. Styles, the Mayor and City Co licit of Atlanta, were invited to take seats in the Convention. On motion of Mr. Moore, the, Convention re turned thanks to Col. Hulbert, and accepted his generous invitation to make an excursion over his road and to other points designated. On motion of Mr. Christian, the thanks of the Convention were tendered the City Council for the use of their hall; also, lor an invitation to ride around the city. On motion of Col. Jones, thanks were return ed to the citizens and merchants of Atlanta tor courtesies. On motion of Major Steele, thanks were re turned to Col. dishy for the able, efficient and courteous manner in which he had presided over the Convention: also to the Secretaries, for their politeness in performing their duties. Convention adjourned until 8 o’clock, p. m. it! Mr. Medlook proposed “the local Press of At lanta.” Dr. Bard was called for, but ho excused himself in a few words, and throw the task up on our excellent friend, Col. Avery of the Lon- stitutlon. Tho Colonel extrienled hinyiolf very •ily by proposing the Angitsta Press. iis drew from Gen. A. II. Wright, of tho Chronicle it* Sentinel, a most beautiful and olo- quont speech of about live minutes, which spe cially delighted the Atlanta folks, and made friends of them all to tho General. Mai. Steele suggested the Press of Griffin. This brought out Fitch in one of his character istic speeches, which never fails to prove a “ dead shot.” In conclusion be had a sentiment to offer, and gave “the memory of the Press of Savan nah and Milledgeville.fto be drank in silence.” Tho joke was discovered when it was remember ed that neither of the cities named was repre sented in the Convention. Dr. Bard, of the Era, proposed tho health of the absent members of the Georgia Press.— This was received with an anplnusa which proved that the prevalent good feeling reached out even unto those that were, not present. Tho next off**rod was tho health of Col. E. Hulbert. Tho Colonel was not present, but tho sentiment elicited a warm expression of feeling aud was most elegantly responded to by Col. Fulton at Athens. Other toasts wero offered and other speeches made, but there was such a gust of jollity that wo lost “the hung of tho thing” entirely, and had to cease taking notes. On tho whole, it was a most pleasant reunion, without a single accident to mar tho enjoyment. It was not un til tho “ clock hung on the stroke o’ twelve” that the assembly broke up. Among those who (leservo to be mentioned as liberal patrons of tho press in contributing to this entertainment, are McBride & Co., Glenn, Wright A Carr, G. W. Jack »tCo., L. Cohen «t Co., Redwine & Fox, W. A. Lausdoll, Boorman t, M. E. Kenny and Phillips A Crew. The.Convontion met pursuant to adjournment, it 8 o’clock p. in.

Printers’ Devils.—Miss Piney W. Forsythe,- who is a practical printer herself, lias mode tho following happy and appropriate notico of so- called printers’ devils: “A great many persons are in the habit of looking upon and speaking of printers’ devils in a manner that reflects no credit to thomsolvcs. Those same printers, iu nine cases out ton, arc three times as well posted on the issues of tho day as the person who speaks lightly of them. There is no class of boys for whom we liavo a more profound respect than well-behaved print ers’ devils. They know something and are practical, which is more than you can say of all classes of boys. In that fospuet wo place the boys who work in a printing offleo head and shoulders above most boys. Young woman, be fore you again elevate that delicate nose at the approach of a printers’ devil, get some one who knows something of history to tell you the name of some characters that wero onoo print ers’ devils." Tho first time woman ever gave the devil his due. -Rep. Devil. A Pleasant Reunion.—After the adjournment of the Convention on Tuesday night, the Mayor, assisted by some of his friends, ushered into the Council Chamber sundry baskets of cham pagne and other articles “ too tedious to men tion.” His Honor then took the chair aud wel comed the members of the press as only His Honor could have done. Then commenced the popping of champagne corks, and a flashing of wit, eloquence aud repartee, such as has sel- domed been equaled in Atlanta. All the gentle men mot upon a common level. There was no politics to cast its damper over the general en joyment. Tho rule oi action was to “be as hap py as we Ciiu to-night, to-morrow will bring trouble enough." All met as brethren around one common board, and the utmost cordiality prevailed. C’ol. Carey W. Styles was among the first of the speakers, and ho acquitted himself in his usually eloquent and happy style. His referen ces to Atlanta stimulated the pride of every At lanta man present, and forced a brief but appro priate response from Mayor Hulsey. F. 8. Fitch, of tho Gritfiu Star, arose. “I have," Raid he, “to propose the health of a gentleman who has but recently become inter ested in the Georgia Pre L s—a gentleman of un blemished character, of enlarged learning and an ornament to tho profession. I propose to you gentlemen, tho health of Rev. Atticus G. Hay good.” This stroke was received with up- roarous applause, and was responded to by Maj- Steole, ot the Intelligencer, in a most happy and graceful tribute to tho character and worth of the gentleman referred to, whom the Major has known from his boyhood up to the prosont time. A nolo was read from R. P. Glenn, Esq., which elicited loud calls for that gontlemau. He is a modest man and shrank from appearing; but the call was so unanimous that he was forced to show himself. Ho said: “ I am no speaker, gentlemen; but, if there are any 4 devils’ amoug von, send them down and I will press them out. ’ claimed for the amendment thus far; and of Mr. G. is connected with the press, being the these, only seventeen have legally ratified it.— agent for Utley’s excellent patent The assent of eleven moro StateH will bo neees- Mayor Mnllhanoy, of Colmnbus was intro- B»ry to force ne"ro euflraao upon an unwilling duced, and entertained the nudiouco with a fow p^Jpje “ ' most appropriate remarks. Another Ilorrlltlti Negro Outrugc. Adairsvii.le, Aug. 25, 1859. Mr. Editor: Our uslVally quiet community has been Under great excitclticnt for the lust twenty- four bourn, by the occurrence, within a lew miles of Adnirsvillc of the most wanton outrage ever perpetrated by a fiend. A most respecta ble and esteemed young lady, connected witjj one of the best families iu our county, was walking out last Monday evening, not far from the residence of a rdJfctiye, with whom she. was staying at The time, when - she was met by u savage negro fellow, who ed her, ’’Vnunincd her apron into her mouth to prevent her giving the alarm, dragging her into a neighboring wood, where lie violated her person, and then beat her to death with his gun. When she failed to return at tho hour she was looked for, and night came on, the fears of the family were aroused, the ulariri was spread through the neighborhood, aud a diligent search kept up during tho night by a largo number ot anxious mends, but it was not. until after light the next morning that her dishonored and hor ribly mutilated body was found. It was evident that she lmd made a desperate struggle to avoid her late, aud it was probably this terribly des perate resistance which her outraged but helpless innocence hud made even to the very last, that struck terror into tho heart of the fiend, that had her in his possession, and made him feel, after his first hellish act had been accomplish ed, that the only possible escape for him from future punishment, lay in her entire destruction, But a righteous Providence had so ordered it that this second frightful crime should uoi long c meeal the first, even in the silence of death.— By the peculiarity of the shoes ho was wearing, as almost immediately tracked to his house, e the blood of his unfortunate victim was still upon his person, and upon tho broken gun with which he had struck the fatal blows. Por tions of her dress were uIbo found upon him, and many other evidencesof his guilt. Not one of all the large and respectable crowd, white or black, old or young, male or female, that witness ed the evidences of his crime, doubted for one moment his damning infamy. The negroes wero loudest in his condemnat on, many declar ing that he ought to be burnt. He is now under arrest, and will have to meet the demands of law and justice, unless th Governor should un fortunately feel it his duty to interpose his clem ency. This is the great fear of" the community that notwithstanding the heinousness of lie crime committed, and the certainty of the ne gro’s guilt, our most merciful governor will de vise some plan to prevent his being hung. BARTOW. Since writing the above, wc learn that tho guard placed over the prisoner last night, were surprised by parties unknown to them, their guns seized and the negro taken forcibly from them, uud carried off fin- what purpose, and whether done with a view to his release, or to prevent the interposition of Executive clemency, is not yet known,—Atlanta Constitution. So far as the reports received at the depart ment of agriculture reflect the condition of the corn crop up io the middle of August, the yield will not prove very bountiful. Iu the States of New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, West Vir ginia, Kansas, Nebraska, Arkansas, Alabama, Louisiana, Florida and Texas, eleven in all, an equally high or higher condition is reported than at the same, period of last season. New Jersey and Pennsylvania show a slight increase of acreage. Nebraska and West Virginia an in crease of six per cent, Kansas an increase of thirty per cent., Texas an increase of seven per cent., aud Florida an increase of ten per cent.— In Arkansas, Louisiana and Delaware there is a considerable decrease in acreage. In tho great corn-producing State of Illinois the average estimate of condition in about sixty counties falls fully thirty per cent, below last season at tho sume date; Indiana, the second State in nroduction, puts the figures nearly as low; Miouigan, Wisconsin and Minnesota rate twonfy lo'thirty pbr ceut.^glow last year. Ohio twenty per cent, below: Town twqnty per cent; Missouri, Kentucky and Tennessee ten per cent. The New England States range fromteu to fifteen per cent below; Ne\wYork twenty to twenty-five per cent.; Maryland, Virginia,. North Carolina*, Georgia, Mississippi and Tennessee ten percent., and South Carolina thirty per cent, below. Of the States above mentioned, whoso crop condition is equal* to or better than last year, # TuxaH^nnpRiisos an increased yield of twenty ^per cent., and Kansas and Arkansas an increase F of ten per c nt. In tho majority of States, theref re, a falling off iu the acreage sufficient to balance the in crease on account ot condition in the States where it is reported. But it is more that likely that the estimates, except as to the acreage, are all too high. The drought of the last few weeks has told seriously upon the crop everywhere.— Its ruinous effects have not, of course, been ■taken into account in making the returns to the department. Illinois jmd Indiana produced nearly a fourth of tho corn crop of tho country. IuTheso States the heavy ruins of spring retard ed its growth, and, even though they escape the drought, there will be a deficit of from twenty to thirty per cent. Iu Ohio, Iowa, Missouri, Kentucky and Tennessee, which produced one- third of the crop of tho country, there will be a decrease of from ten to twen y per cent. Any slight comparison of these estimates, coupled with the pj^l^hle effects of the dry weather, must lead J^Te conclusion that the yield of last year will not nearly be reached. Though the season has been and is mipronitious for this great national crop, the farmers liavo gathered a bountiful harvest of other grains, and there need be no fear of a famine in the laud .—Philadelphia Press, 2oth. Post Office, ) Atlanta, Ga., Aug. 28, 1809. f Kdilor Constitution—Sir: - For tho information of those interested, I desire to make known that au Iuterniviaual Arrangeiueut lias been perfected between the Postotfiee Department of the United States aud the Postoffiee Department of Switzerland, by which the money order sys tem is made to cross;the ocean for the first time, and that September 1st, proximo, is the day on which this new operation is to go into opera tion. I am not informed ns to the number of officers authorized to use this arrangement, but may add that tho Atlanta post office has been designated one of them. As our city coRtains a large number of Ger mans, who may wish to avail themselves of the safe means of making remittance, I will further state that, these money-orders are paid for here , in currency, uml $he paper which shows how much was paid, is sent to the New York Post office, where it je computed at the value of gold on the day on which it was received, and having filled up the blj^nk form which wo furnish, it is then forward®? to any money-order office ou which it is diwn in Switzerland.

Seven Pin**.—Two huudred years ugo.onnore, a party of hunters from Jamestown encamped among the bushes, about six miles from the pres ent silo of Richmond, and during the night they were invited to a “corn-dau«o," where their In dian neighbors celebrated the return of tho har vest. In order to guard against losing their way while returning without, their dusky guide, they searched for land marks. And, among other things, tliej selected seven pirtes which grew from the sumo stump, and chipping these trees with their hatchets, tliey concluded they could retrace their steps by way of tho “seven pines." The spot became afterward* a camping* ground ter white hunters, and us ibey soparotea iu the morn ing. wherever they might be. tll% usually ar ranged to meet at noun- under tho “seven pines" Thus it was named, which, after the lapse of t vo oenturies. was to be known throughout the 'civilized world as th Battlefield of Seven Pines.

Al ter conviction he was sent to jail, m»m which he was released by an ignorant b it well moaning negro magistrate, upon the false representations of a brother carnet-nagger, when he fled to parts unknown.

An imbecile who has no better sense than to thus disregard the obligations of tin- office he holds is hardly capable of committing a successful forgery, but is not a very safe per son to handle tho mails. Savannah Xems. A Remedy for Neuraloia. For the benefit of local sufferers by tbjit excruciating disease, neuralgia, wo publish the following, which is at least worth trying: “It is said that the juice of one lemon a day taken in water, will cure the most obstinate case of neuralgia. No sugar should bo taken, as it has a tendency to counteract the effects of the lemon juice.” People are content to walk for life in the rut made by their predecessors long after it has become so deep that they cannot see to the right or left. This keeps them in ignorance and dark ness, but it saves Ihem the troubl • of thinking or acting for themselves. A gentleman who lmd a very deaf servant was advised by a friend to discharge her. “ No. no,” replied the gentleman, with much good feelingr “that poor creature could never hear of anotlie; situation.” A street car conductor says that just seven la dies out of one hundred say ''•‘Tlirtiik you," when gentlemen resign their seats to them.

MrjitWKTHKn SCPKiuon Court, August Term, WE, the Grnud Jury, selected, clipnen and sworn, lor ’ ' the first week Of the \UKU«t Tiuiu of the Superior Court of Meriwether county, respectfully submit the fol lowing general presentments: Tho books of the Clerk of tho Superior Court In arc kept in a neat aud business-like stylo—bis p; in office well arranged, and wo pay him but a dost compliment in declaring him a most competent olttct While tho Ordinary’s duties, under the present Consti tution, are quite onerous, wo find, from u strict examina tion of all the records, that that officer has been quite equal to ids task. He lias been faithful In the discharge of Ids multiplied duties, put the public buildings iu general repair, built bridges, constructed roads, provided ways aud means; and, from a state almost of bankrupfi-y, lias brought the county to a condition of solvency, lie ci not lie too highly honored for his faithful guardianship all the interests of tho county whi ii pertain to his depart- t. The .Tail, however, needs additional repairs t< or it safe. One hundred dollars, in more securel; closing an opening made in tho debtor’s room by escap iug prisoners and in repairing and enclosing the steps ti its entrance, wc think would be well expended. In this connection, while approving the work already done upon the Court House, wo call attention of the Ordinary to its roof and rcconuneud that its leaky condition be at remedied by repairs or by re-covering as. upon examina tion, lie may deem necessary. Wo also advise the addi tion of stovepipe to the Ordinary’s office, that it may b< rendered more comfortable in winter. With unfeigned delight we announce to our follow-citi- zens of tho county, that we are at last entirely out of debt with a small balance in Treasury. The books of the former Treasurer, from tkebegiauiug of the year (18GH) eighteen hundred aud sixty-eight to the date of their be- iug turned over to the present incumbent in offico, wt carefully examined aud found to be correctly balanced. After close examination of the records and vouchers of the present Treasurer, we find every umouut retfbed und expended and the cash on hand to balance, by us mint ed over, correct, to tho fraction of a cent. His books urc all kept according to the most approved style of book-keep ing. His vouchers all filed and numbered aud his cash to balaiico all separately aud securely deposited. Wo certainly huvo cause to congratulate tho county upon the efficiency and faithfulness of ull her public sen-ants, for we have scrutinized their conduct most closely without iear or favor und the compliment we pay them is no fulsome praise. ^ Lilteil Telegraphic News.

We quote from the presentments of the last Grand Jury, that •• there arc in our midst many persons who, from disease, age. and other providential causes, aro unable to support themselves, und must, therefore, be supported from taxation or from the charities of our citizens, we recommend tho Ordinary to adopt some plan by which their wants can be relieved at as light expense us (possi ble.)” In this recommendation tho present Grand Jury most heartily concur and again urge it upon the. attontiou of the Ordinary. If a ehain-gung, from criminals convicted by the vorf ous {courts of tho couuty, was cstahUahcd, and some means devised by which the labor of criminals could be made to assist in supporting tho indigent, and in effecting repairs upon public bindings, roads and bridges, we thiuk it would be well, and wft earnestly recommend such a course.
