COLUMBUS* FRIDAY, JULY 8,
FOR GOVERNOR
JOSEPH E. BROWN,
OF CHEROKEE.
Crops.
We hear no particular complaint from the plan
tera in this section in respect to the growing crop?,
except that they are grassy. Strange to say, too,
this complaint is very general. With proper
deference to their superior judgment, we are con
strained to think that this condition of things is
the result of ill husbandry. We do not remember
a year in which occurred a more propitious
Spring for cleansing a crop. The months of
April and May, compared with former years, were
very dry. There was no rain to hinder forming
operations and give the grass a vigorous start till
corn and cotton both should have received the
second working. If these had been given thor
oughly, the cause of complaint would not have
existed. But the cotton planter seldom pa's
much attention to the corn crop. Many of them
never suffer the hoc3 to go into it at all. lhej
rely upon the plough for uprooting and covering
up what grass there may be, and it is impossible
that this operation can have all the efficacy which
they desire. They manage, too, to plant about
one-third more land in cotton than they can or
dinarily do justice to. This fact, necessitates
rapid and, consequently, careless work. Ibe
young grass is almost entirely overlooked until
the third hoeing, by which time it is no longer in
a contemptible minority, but is manfully disput
ing the mastery with the puny plant. The only
vemedv against this evil is to moderate theii de
sires, and devote less land to cotton. It is not
written that they would not thereby increase
their stores.
Apropos of grass, a friend stated to us the
other day that he purchased, not long since, a fine
mule. In making preparations to break him to
the plough, the animal made his escape, and has
ever since eluded discovery and capture, lie
would offer a reward for him, did he nit have
strong hope that the beast is in his cotton field,
protected from observation by a wilderness of
grass. With such exceptions the crops in this
part of the country are very good. We learn
from a gentleman, just from Northern Georgia,
that the corn is suffering .from drought. Tie
plant, however, is not in such a state of forward
ness as it is with us, and, with propitious seasons,
may yet recover. One inoro bountiful rain wi 1
secure to our people an abundance of the staff of
life.
Opposition Convention—3d District.
From the Macon State Press, we learn that the
Opposition Convention, which assembled at For
xython Tuesday, the 6th init., nominated the
Hon. Thomas Hardeman, Jr., of Macon, for Con
gress, in the 3d District. This geutleman is one
of the Representatives in the Georgia Legislature
from the county of Bibb, and a. man of fine social
traits. Still, his cause and parly affiliations are
m. avaiwiiiiy for Jhis suc
tion of the District. The western section has al
ways brought up the majorities for the American
party, and have never yet received the crumb of
a reward for their zeal and devotion to their
cause. While we should have opposed the candi
date chosen by the Opposition Convention, no
matter from what end of the District ho might be
selected, yet wo are satisfied that Harris or Upson
county was entitled to the nomination. In the
person of Col. D. P. Hill, the Opposition has al
ways rallied strong in this portion of the District.
The Opposition, however, do not value his influ
ence or count upon his numbers as the Democracy.
We promise to give Mr. Hardeman, a manly,
open, determined opposition, resorting to nothing
that would wound his most delicate sensibilities;
but, believing that the Democratic flag, under an
active leader, can be hoisted above the factions
and light up the path to a glorious and triumph
ant victory.
liallroad Meeting —l'usseta.
A friend writes us from Chattahoochee county,
that there will be a Railroad Meeting at Cusseta,
t ie county seat, on the 22d inst, and a Barbecue
given on the occasion. The object of the meeting
is to raise subscriptions to build a railroad to inter
sect with the Muscogee Road at some point west
of Columbus.

Convention, of the 3J Congressional District will

The Meteor That Did’nt Fall—The Utica
Herald has a long and amusing account of the
trip of a party of gentlemen from that city to the
*cene of the “meteoric stone” in Oswego county. ‘
ft seems that the Utica delegation was only one
of many others that went off into the wilderness
.led by the lying story of the Palladium man—
The Herald says : Among the distinguised pil- i
grims to this Mecca were Jewett, geologist of the !
State, dispatched thither by the Regents of the •
University; Judge Mullin, of this judicial dis- !

Stocking, of Utica; and many others whose names !

To the Stockholders of the Hoad t
Gentlemen :—I herewith piesent you with.the
reports of the Superintendent and Chief Engineer,
and of the .Secretary and Treasurer. By the first
vou are informed of the condition of the road,
‘and its prospects, from which, in your collation of
facts, you will discover that we nave triumphed
over the main difficulties of the work, taat
we are now proceeding, with rapid march, to its
completion to Union Springs, which point J 76
hope to reach on or before the first day of Octo
ber. We may be delayed even to a later period,
from the great difficulty we find in procuring
hands. We have, as jou are informed by the
Chief Engineer, about three miles of iron at our
depot, all of which has been paid for. I have
been promised by the Superintendent of the State
Road of Georgia, Dr. Lewis, all that be may be
able to take up. I am expecting a portion of it
every day, but should we be disappointed in re
ceiving tbe quantity expected, I can command
it from Philadelphia in time, but at a much great
er price. I have the money to pay for the bal
ance of the iron, from the proceeds of the city
bonds of Columbus, which we have carefully
■ preserved for the purpose.
We have a large work going on below Union
Springs, but it is proper to state that the expense
is borne entirely by the people of Pike, and that
they are working for stock which is to be admit
ted into the general stock of the Company when
ever sections are completed, ready lor the cars,
and the value of the work regulated by the esti
mate of the Chief Engineer. In this arrangement
I do not suppose that there is any violation of the
resolution of the stockholders that no money shall
be appropriated or used for the extension ot the
road*beyond Union Springs. The Company has
not paid a dollar for this work except for the sur
vey, which was authorized by a resolution of the
stockholders. As the people of Pike county have
asumed the responsibility of extending the road
through their country. I think it is but a :air en
couragement to them for the Company to return
to them the amount which they have invested to
enable us to reach Union Springs ; it is about
fifteen thousand dollars, and I think that they
are the more entitled to this sheer justice,as they
have undertaken, and are paying for, work six or
seven miles above their county line.
From an examination ot the report or the
Treasurer, you will find $11,740.66 more dm
than we have ability to meet. Ibis is aii right
from his books; but we have twenty-lbur of the
city bonds of Columbus, worth and saleable at
ninety cents in the dollar, amounting to s2l 600;
take our indebtedness ot <511,746.66 troiu it, uut.
we have a balance in our favor 0i50,853.34, and
our mail pay of $4,505, due the Ist ot this month,
besides some few good subscriptiorif., which have
not been reduced to notes or brought into the ac
count. The grading, under the supervision of
Captain Seale, will ne paid tor by conditional
subscriptions not brought into this account. V* e
have, then, the nbove items to bear the expenses
of the superstructure of five and a half miles, and
iron for iwoaml a ball miles, wiucti, 1 am pei
suaded, wi'l enable us to reach Union Springs
with little or no indebtedness, provided our sub
scribers and friends will pay their subscription
with a reasonable degree of promptitude.
The board has made arrangements to cross the
river and connect with the Muscogee Road. Me
have received letters from Mr. Cuyler and Mr.
Padelford both, that our bonds for forty thousand
dollars, endorsed by the Central Rail Road and
Banking Company, have all been engaged at par,
payable at ten years at eight per cent, interest
semi-annually. We have been authorized by Mi.
Padelford to draw on him at sight for $15,000, on
account of that amount engaged and taken by
him. We therefore have funds to go on with the
bridge, and are now using diligence in its con
struction.
We have not yet received tbe maps from tbe
general land office, designating our public lauds,
but we believe that they amount to more than five
hundred thousand acres, wnicb, with the. sub
scriptions, that wo have had assurances will os
made through Pike, Covington, Butler and Con
ecuh, will enable us to reach Mobile Bay, near
Tu>au,ioatu that company wuiouna upon us 6wn
charter, upon ourline, from the mouth of Murder
Creek to Blakely, or near it, crossing Tenaaw,
Spanish and Mobile Rivers, into Mobile, that
this Company will divide the public land with
them, in proportion to distance, computing the
whole distance from Columbus to Mobile.
The Company is now engaged in making its
surveys across the marsh and rivers, and I believe
that they wi!! accept the proposition. If it does
not, we are still independent, as we have plenty of
public lands on the line from Murder Creek to
Blakely, to buiia the road to the latter point,
which we cannot use, unless the road is built.—
This arrangement will enable us to reach both
Pensacola and Mobile, as we have only one
hundred and seventeen miles from Union Springs
to the Montgomery and Pensacola road, over a
very favorable surface on the valley of the Cone
cuh river.
There is some difference of opinion in regard to
the extension of the road beyond Union Springs.
lam a steady advocate for completing the whole
line to Pensacola and Mobile: but there cannot
be any reason fairly and candidly urged against
extending the road at least fifty miles beyond the
Springs, as it can be effected with one-fourth of
the cost per mile, flange rail, which the road has
cost from Girard to Chunnemiggee Ridge, and
from my knowledge cf the country through which
it traverses, it will more than double the frieght
and passage which we now have, or will have
when we reach the Springs. If I am correct in
this proposition, me stockholders must be bene
fited by the extension; the people on the line ac
commodated with facilities which they do not
now enjoy, and the commerce of Columbus will
be largely augmented. If the stockholders choose
to stop the road short of Pensacola or Mobile,
they will be in abundant time to arrest its pro
gress after we have reached fifty miles beyond
Union Springs; moreover, in the extension of !
fifty miles, sve shall be aided by the public lands, j
which we cannot appropriate unless we carry the !
road into them.
Ail of which is respectfully submitted.

From Washington.— Advices from Mexico of

Buchanan, expressing his great indignation at
the withdrawal of tho exequaturs from the Am

erican citizens by Miramon’s soldiers at Taeubaya
The massacre is characterized as a violation of na
tional rights and treaty stipulations, and Mira

redressed demanded and ultimately obtained,
whatever may be the result of the remonstrance.

From the Columbus Enquirer.
To Gea. James 5. Beibune.
_ ‘Columbus, July 4, 1859.
Dear General —You have seen proper in sever
al recent issues of your paper, The Corner Stoue,
to arraign before the public the official conduct
of the Representatives from Muscogee in the last
Legislature, and especially the course of P. H-
Coiquitt, Esq., and myself, for what you consid
er of our constitutional obligations in
supporting, as you say, the bill introduced by
Col. Mott to amend the charter of the city of Co
lumbus. Our alleged error in this bebaif, you
attribute to the neglect or failure on our part to
remember tbe scriptural injunction, “honor all
men;” and in the la3t issue of your paper you
have kindly manifested a fatherly concern for
what you consider an error of our official ways,by
publishing a sermon of four or five columns in
length, based on the text, “honor all men,” and
especially commend the some to the perusa.l ot
Capt. Coiquitt and myself. At a leisure time,
General, i. will, as requested, read the sermon,and
if 1 hud that the principles inerein inculcated are
drawn ‘like the text itself, drawn from the best of
ail books, the Bible, I will mo3t heartily sub
scribe to, and endorse the same, but if otherwise,
I shall of course withhold my- approval of it.
In regard to the law of the last session, which
has just been decided upon by the Supreme Court
in your favor touching the market ordinance, I
need say nothing now either by way of defence or
explanation.
My object in this communication is to enter
my protest against thejinsinuation recently put
forth in several of your editorials, that I as a leg
islator, regarded the rights of the rich, ‘and tut
powerful, and the great, more than those of the
poor, and the humble, and the weak.
My manner of life from my youth up, yov
have known. Did you ever see or hear ot any
aftempt on my part to curry favor bv fawning
around the rich or the great, or of my being
brought under obligations to them, or to bank
ing corporations? If so, you are luily at liberty
to state when, wherein and how.
You are greatly mistaken, General, if you sup
pose that 1 value men or their rights according to
tie apparel they put on, or the amount ot gold
m their pockets. No sir, very far from it. ibe
humble poor man, with a truo noble soui within,
hough ciad in rags and toiling from day break
until dark for the bread that perisbeth, 1 esteem
far above one of an opposite character, though he
be rich in this world, clothed in fine raiment and
faring sumptuously every day.
That X may have erred in my official conduct
in the past, in several instances, I do not pretend
to deny; but that those errors were intentional or
the result of neglect, as intimated by you, I posi
tively disclaim. As 3 legislator, I have endeavor
ed to discharge my duly to all classes and con
ditions of men, and sure am I, that I have never,
as a member, or as a private individual, asked for
any “vested rights” or privileges for me or mine,
over and above the humblest and poorest citizen
in the community.
, . t . A 4-V. ~ A T
But, General, you seem to be concerned that I
should obey the scriptures in part at least, es
pecially the precept “honor all men.” Well, I
am free to admit that I think we ail ought to do
80, not only in part, but in whole, not in the letter
only, but in the spirit also. That I have at least
endeavored to square my conduct for years past
by that precept in the unerring chart of life is
known to you and others. Lut you being me
judge, I have fallen far short of the mark. We
are not only taught to “honov all men,” but to
respect “the powers that be.” Andii Ihe judicial
tribunals of the land should determine inv case
contrary to my opinion of both law and the con
stitution, I should feel it to be my duty to sub
mitto their adjudication. But, General, are you
willing to submit? It is generally understood
that you had determined with a fixed, unalter
able purpose, in the event the decision of the
Supreme Court had been adverse to you, to fall
back upon your natural rights, and take the risk
of the consequences of resistance, the legitimate
fruits of which, undcrsuch a state of things, would
be strifes, violence and perhaps bloodshed and
murder. General, we are all too prone to discov
or and be troubled about tho mote in our brother’
eye to the neglect of the beam in our own eye.
didate for Congress in the 2c! Congressional Dis
trict. Yon will probably havo a long, hard and
stumpy road to travol. If you spend your time
and waste your ammunition upon small game in
stead of turning loose your artillery in the right
direction, it is to be apprehended that you will
fail to fulfill Ellis’ prediction, by not landing in
the Halls of Congress. Buckle on your whole
armor then, General, and go forth to war against
the short comings, mismanagement and corrup.
tiGns of the National Government. By so doing,
I think you will make better headway in the
Congressional race.
Very respectfully,
NICHOLAS L. HOWARD.
The Gold Mines of the South. —ln another
I part of this day’s paper we publish two letters
giving an account of the gold fields in Georgia,
the two Carolinas and Virginia. In reply to
what one of these writers says in reference to
opening our columns to news* statements about
gold mines, we have only to state that our col
umns have always been open to news from every
quarter, and open also for free discussion and
statements on both sides, it is thus alone the
public will at last arrive at facts. Had we fol
lowed tbe course suggested by our correspondent
in the ease o: the California gold mines when
they were first discovered, many persons who
made fortunes by reading rue news in the Her
ald would have been anticipated by other men,
or perhaps the gold to a very great extent would
have lain hidden in the rocks to this day.
It appears, from the statement of our other cor
respondent, who writes about the Georgia gold
mines, tnat the California gold fever drew away
all mining enterprise to the Pacific, and that the
gold fields of the Southern States have been neg
lected ever since, till now that the first veins of
the California placers are exhausted, and the em
igration fever abated. In fact, the miners who
have returned from that State calculate that with
the experience gained there, they can operate
with brilliant success in Georgia and other South
ern States. One Company have made arrange
ments to work tho gold regions with hydraulic
power, at an expense of $450,000; and, by turn
ing to our correspondence, the reader will see
an account of other operations on a large scale,
which indicate that a revolution in mining has ta
ken place in Georgia. Capitalists may make for
tunes ; but he advises poor men not to venture
from the North to those places till the mines are
more fully developed, and there is an urgent de
mand for their labor. This is judicious advice,
and we hope it will be followed. Meantime,
those gold mines constitute a subject of great in
terest to the whoie community.— X. Y. Herald.

Ellerslie Lodge, No. U 4, F. A. M.)
July 4, 1559. j
Whereas, it has pleased our Great Master in
the dispension of his providence, to take from our
Lodge and association, our beloved Brother. He
has been called from earth and has gone to'sit in
the Supreme Grand Lodge above, where all °- o od
Masons hope at length to arrive.
Asa sincere but inadequate expression of the
fraternity on this meiancholly occasion, we the
committee offer tii6 following sentiments and res
olutions.
We deeply deplore the loss of our distinguished
brother, at an age too, when under circumstances
of healthful energy, so much usefulness mi°-ht
reasonably be anticipated, through a life of more
than ordinary length. He had frequently been
honored with offices of the highest trust by t%e
citizens of this county. He filled them all well
with honor to himself and constituents. Re
nowned throughout the land for his charity, his
great worth as a citizen, his genial manners,’ his
open handed justice, his goodness of heart, both
in public and private life, the same “hnmble good
man and true,” be has been snatched as it were
from the dear one whom he loved and those who
most worshipped him.
He toils no more with the eraftsmen of earth.
Long before we knew him as a Mason, bis char
benniDtbiwfi of fast, b*
tokened the possession of those virtues which v'B
love to teach) and wiifcii ail mankind e'dmire in j
the pcseesaor.
This sad news of bereavement will awaken a
mournful sympathy in thousands of true Mason
ic hearts. We have therefore thought it meet and
proner to thus refer to it.
The Hon. TOLIVER JONES, Treasurer of
this Lodge, died at his residence on the evening
of the 2d July, 1859. May he rest in peace.
Resolved,‘/That we tender our beloved brother’s
family our sincere condolence and heartfelt sym
pathy; that this Lodge has lost one of its bright
est jewels, aa huuible, good, true and faitful
Mason.
Resolved, That the Members of this Lodge
wear the usual badge of mourning, and that the
jewels of the Lodge be draped in the same for
thirty days, as a token of our love and high es
teem for him who is no more.
Resolved, That a copy of this preamble and
resolutions be placed upon our minutes, a copy
furnished our brother’s family, and a copy be sent
the Southern Christian Advocate, Columbus En
quirer and Columbus Times, with a request that
they be published.

will make the hair grow in every case, but where
it fails there is certainly no remedy. The resto
ration of the hair has been effected in so many
