The present Presidential campaign in volves more momentous consequences than any previous political contest in the history of the country. The people of Georgia are deeply interested in the result, and will therefore, look forward to the developments of the campaign with increasing interest. The dissemination of reliable news, mid of sound constitutional views on the important issues of the day arc essential to the success of the Republican parly. To supply in a measure this need, we wil mail The National RepuueicAk for any four months prior to January 1, 1869, at the low rate of $1.50. We appeal to the old' supporters of the Repubijcan to aid us in extending Wits circulation. We pledge ourselves to devote all our energy and ability to the success ql the great cause in which the Union Repub lican Party is embarked; and to spare neither labor nop .expense in making Tail National Rbpubvicax a useful and reliable n ewspaper. Specimen copies sent free to any addies-. —* ■ w lhe Coming Crop. As much interest is felt throughout the country in regard to the prospects of the cotton and other crops we will be grateful to our planting friends, and others in the interior, for information on the subject. Onr factors and others who have opportu nities for obtaining valuable information hi regard to the growing crops, and anything of interest in relation thereto, will confer a favor by communicating the same to us. • • - Watermelons Without Seed. Hie following plan has been successfully adopted by a planter in Caddo parish, La.: After the vine is about two feet king, cover the same at a point intermediate between the root. After it has taken root where it is covered, divide the vine between the old and new root, and the result will be that the melons will be seedless, without impairing their quality. •♦ • - t orn and Pork. The Cincinnati Prices Current, after speaking of the general favorable reports of the wheat crop from all quarters of the country, says: The indications of the corn crop are quite favorable, and should this lie the case, a large increase in the pork crop may be looked for the coming season, beemtse the supply of stock hogs will be unusually large, for not only wds the supply left over from last season Targe (farmers not having fatted them because of tire high price of corn and the cohiparative low price of pork) but the increase since then has been liberal, so that the number now iu the Western States, it will be« seen, musk be-unusually large. The Augusta Factory. The twentieth semi-annual report of Wm- E. Jackson, President, submitted at the close of the financial year, shows that the condition of the Augusta Factory tompany is very favorable. The gross earnings for the six months ending July 1, 1868, were $139,632.30 ; the expenses and taxes aggregated $31,898.16--- leaving as net profits; $107,534.14 • from which two dividends of 5 per eent. each, amounting to $60,000; ■ have been paid, enabling the company to curry to the credit of profits and loss account - $47.534.11 — making the amount now to the credit ot that account $224,798.22. During this period the following statistics. Cotton C0n5umed1,362,571 lbs. Average Cost of C0tt0n...19-98 100 Average yards, per loom, per day-49j Average number of looms running*os Average number hands employedso7 Aggregate wages paidsß7,s46 93 Aggregate 5a1e55519,955.01 It will be remembered by those who were among the original purchasers, that this property was purchased of thfc City for $140,000 on ten years’ credit, with interest at seven per cent., payable semi annually, and one tenth of the principal annually, the purchasers paying iu as commercial capital $60,000. Since the. purchase, the Company has paid for the' entire property without calling on the stockholders for another dollar; added largely to the property by purchase and building, bought SIOO,OOO worth of new machinery, increased the capital, to $6()0,- 000, by the addition of a portion of the surplus; paid dividends regularly, and has now a property worth the par value ($600,000) in gold. lhe present condition of the Augusta Factory Company is an enviable one; entirely free front debt—sufficient commer cial capital to conduct the business suc cessfully in ordinary seasons—a good reputation for fabrics and responsibility— an excellent force of operatives, and the two mills so good condition.
