Asrlcnlturnl Society of
Georgia
Notice is lioroby given that the
Slato Agricultural Society will meet in
Atlanta, on the first Tuesday in Feb
ruary.
Tho Flantcrs of tho several counties
are requested to organize County So
cieties and send full delegations.
Individuals will be admitted, upon
becoming members, to all tho privi
leges of a seat.
All Mechanical, Manufacturing or
Mining organizations, nre requested to
send delegates.
An arrangement is in prospect for
reduced tares at tho hotels and board
ing houses, for delegates. y
Tho railroads have ongagod to car
ry delegates to and from tho Conven
tion for one fare.
During tho session of tho Conven
tion thero will bo a trial—practical
’exhibition—of tho working of tho most
improved plows in tho Union—the
I’eckskill, the Collins i’low, that took
tho premium at tho Pnris World’s
Fair, among them.
David W. I.kwis,
Scorctnry.
Aniisif ok tub Fiunkinu Pbivi-
i.miit.—It is well that Congress is be
ginning to look into the abuses
of tho Franking privilege. It has ho-
ooino n source of rovonuotu tho mom-
birs/and thousands of outsiders who
prato agninst corruption go iu for a
xliaro oftlio plunder. Tho Now York
World is sending to every post office
in tho Union an immense colored pros
pectus in senlod envelopes, under tho
Frank of ono John Fobs, M. C. (Wo
bolievo that’s tho name, though it is
badly writton). Whither are we
drifting ?
A lln.i, compelling tho Supromo
Court to rendor a decision in two days
ntlor tho passage of this bill; in rela
tion to the eligibility of negroes to
oflieo undor tho Constitution of Geor
gia. If tho court doclinoB on the
ground that it has no jurisdiction in
tho promises, then the bill requests the
writton opinion of the majority.
Such is the oharactor of a bill in
troduced in tho IIouso of Ucpresonta..
lives, at Atlanta, on the 22d, by that
profligate apostate from dooenoy, re
spectability, truth, manhood and hon
or, O’Neal of I.owdncs. Hut a few
wooks ago ha was making war upon
tho oontonls of tho rum mills in tho
Gato City, nnd had frequent encounters
with lamp posts, curb-stones, nnd un
seen snakes and monkics along tho
sido-walks, and spent many of his
nights in Tim Murphy’s hotel with
kindrod spirits and vagabond dobauoh
oos. And of such is tho kingdom of
scalawagism,
South Gkohuia and Floiiida Rail
road. A meeting of tho stockholders
of tho South Georgia and llorida Hail-
road was held in Thamaevillo last
Tuesday, for the purpose of giving
.sanction to cortain modifications of
tho contrnot oxisting betwcon this
Company and tho Atlantio & Gulf
Hoad Company, and also to confirm
tho President’s contract for iron nnd
provido for tho payment of tho same.
During the dismissions, says the En-
Tuuprise, wo learned that tho Presi
dent purchased a suffioiont quantity of
iron at $82 nor ton, nnd negotiated
tho bonds of tno Company oudorsod by
tho Stalo, at 00 cents on tho dollar—
terms considered by all very favorable
flflfl roll not 1 11 IT fit II nil ANnif.t ll. ..
nnd reflecting much credit upon the
business capacity oftlio President and
Company. A resolution was adopted
recommending the Hoard of Direc
tors to uso all tho powers grantod in
the charter to onforco the eoileotion of
subscriptions, nnd thoy aro determined
to completo the road at the earliest
posaiblo day. We warn delinquent
stockholders, that tho chartor provides
both for slicing and confiscating stock.
Had kob Mu. Hill, The Now York
1 riiiunk, of tho loth, has this to cay
of this gontloman’s chnncos to got his
seat ns Senator from Georgia. Wo
suspect thero is somo buncombe about
it, and designed, perhaps, to operate
at Atlanta:
“Tho question of the ndinsBBioii of
Mr. Joshua Ilill, of Georgia, to a seat
in tho Sonato was to-day settled, so
far ns tho action of tho Judieinry Com..
mitteo is concerned. Tho manner of
the election of tho Senators, tho fact
of the expulsion of tho colo-d mem
bers of tho Legislature on tho ground
that thoy were ineligible, undor the
State Constitution, and all thrpoints
bearing upon tho subjeot wore fully
dicussed. After a long couBultation
tho committee came to a dircot vote
on the question of the admission .,f
Mr. Hill, and a majority voted against
allowing him a seat. It is probable
Ibnta long dobato will nriso in tbe
Sonato when tho report is submitted
but the action of the Comiuittco will
doubtless be sustained.”

'I'IhM- lfantos El Dtaa Percales.
Many of our. Georgia exchanges
have caught at the Tribune't plan for
cdloulziiif, tho South, nud aro aotually
down upon their knees imploring
Northern immigrants to “fill our wasto
places, “onorgiso our agricultural pur
suits,” “build up our cities, ” "elevate
our morals,” improve our religion, re
plenish our coffers and teach us how to
bo great and prosperous. Wo are
represented as being poor, crippled in
energy and broken in spirit, domoral.
izeil and parnlized iu enterprise nnd in
dustry, and utterly powerless for our
own redemption from the thraldom of
bankruptcy that chains ns to poverty
and impotonoy.
These prnyerful - crookings of tho
pregnant hinges of the press aro not
only false in point of fact, but they arc
seriously injurious to us as a people.
Our condition does not justify such
whining and unmanly appeals for
“help,” and least of all sucl^ “help” ns
is aBkcd for. Wo aro doing very well
—getting rich as fast as it is prudent,
nnd our morals nnd Christianity need
no infusion of Now, England’s puritan
ical and Pharisaical theories. The
talk about New England’s filling our
cotton fields with laborers is all bosh..
She may fiil our negro .houses, negro
churches, and tho high-ways nud by
ways with cyprinn soliool inarms nml
whilo-oyed nasal-twanged oarpet-bag..
gors; but her decent, respectable and
worthy people will form no part of the
“stream of immigration” that is to
root us out of houso nud home, and
“make tho South bloom and flourish as
a garden.” Wo waiit no such immi
grants as Greely would sond us.—“Wo
fear tho Greeks, oven when they offor
us presents,” and wo aro surprised
that an intelligent press should so ea-
gurly acocpt the wooden horse.
Tho last crop of cotton brought near
ly ono-third oftlio currency now in
circulation—two more successful crops
will absorb more than half of it, and
the South will turn tho tables and on
ter the listB of lenders instead- of bor
rowers. If wo must havo immigrants,
let uasend to Cuba or Congo for them
—the negro is a thousand times more
valuable to us than would bo the pes
tiferous horde that Greely would enn-
ccrizo our soil and society with.
GEORGIA LEGISLATURE.
[Special la the Journal ami Mrsecnycr] '
Atlanta, January 27.
In the Senate, Mr. Moore moved to
reconsider the resolutions passed yes
terday, approving tho course of the
Macon and Uruuswick Railroad, nml
favoring tho further endorsement of its
bonds by tho State, but the motion
wos lost by a very decided majority.
The joint comnutto havo ma/lo a re*
port, favoring tho payment of $2,600.
with mlrcHt, to tho Hartford Com*,
pany,- for rides purchased, by Kx-
Uovenor Brown, in 1800. It is made

Tho bill to provido jmors lor tho
January term of tho Superior Court in
Chatham county, has boon passed.
Mr. Lane’s resolution to rolcr to a
committee ol seven, tho resolutions re*
lating to tho disabilities imposed by
tho terms of tho amendment to the
Constitution of the United States
known ns tho 14th article, nnd mem-
ornlizing tho Congress of tho United
States lor tho romoval of tho same
from the nooplo of the Stato of Geor
gia, which was indefinitely postponed
yesterday, was reconsidered to-day,
aud taken up.
Mr. Madden moved, ns a substitute,
a resolution to appoint a Joint Com..
mitteo to visit Washington, declaring
tho action of the Legislature in un
seating tho negro mombers null and
vou \ and restoring them to their
seatsj also, to doolaro to Congross that
universal amnesty and universal suf
frage will bo agreeable to Georgia.
Tho original and substitute wore
both referred to the Committee
State oftlio Republic, after Imt
Tho Albany Nows, strangely enough,
favor, the Central Railroad monopoly;
or so we; infer from its remarks on
the subject,
The Ar/jue may havc'may eyes, but
it certainly failed to sec the object of
our editorial on the S. G. * Fla. It. R.
and S. W. R. It. purchase. Tbo Edi
tor’s “inferonco” is not warranted bv
our “remarks;” but sinoo an osteomed
conromporary misinterprets us, it is
duo to ourself as a Georgian and u
journalist to disolaim any sympathy
whatever with tbo “Central' Railroad
Monopoly” or any other monopoly.—
Tho purchase of tho Gulf stock, view-
od ns n mcro business trnnsoolion, is
not n cause for war upon tho Control
and S. W. Railroads, but tho aims
and purposes do mako a easns belli
and tho wholo pooplo of Georgia nre
interested in thwarting the - iniquitous
scheme.
Georgia Reconstruction.
The Washington correspondent of
tho Savannah Republican, of tho 17th,
Says: Tho Reconstruction Committee
have closed up tlicir investigation of
tho Georgia case, and yesterday sent
n largo nmeunt of testimony to tho
Govcrinent Printer. As Boon as this is
pat in typo tho committee will report
adverse to any further disturbance of
tho Govcrinent of Georgia. Thoy
proposo to leave with tho Legislature
of your State the question as to wheth
er negroes aro entitled, under the
Constitution, to scats thoroin, with
the privilogo of an appeal to the Su
premo Courts, of tho United Stntcs.
J’his course, it is thought, will prove
satisfactory to all concerned.
Monopoly Progressing. Wo un
derstand the Central' Railroad Com.
pany has already npointed agents in
Tlioinnsvillo to hay up the stock of the
South Georgia and Florida Road. Wc
shall havo something to sny on this
subject next week. Meantime wo
hope no citizen of this county will en
ter the scrvico of tho Central Rond
against tho interests of his own people,
and tlmt no stockholder of tho South
Georgia it Florida Road will sell his
Hloek to a' foreign eampany aiming at
its destruction.—-TnoMABViLLE Enter
