The President’s .Message, last Wed

but through the energy and perseve
rance of the gentlemanly operators at
the Augusta office, we managed to get

an hour after our forms were being

The Prolit* of Farming.
Aside from the true nobility which
attaches to the occupation of the
fanner in other respects, if he is in
dustrious and frugal in the manage
ment of his interests, it is, perhaps,
the most successful avocation for the
acquisition of wealth. Ou this point,
that great and close observer of
things, Dr. Franklin, said there
seems to be but three ways for a na
tion to acquire wealth. The first is
by war, as the Romans did in plunder
ing their neighbors; this is robbery.
The second by commerce, which is
frequently cheating The third by ag
riculturc, the only honest way wherein
a man receives a real increase of seed
thrown into the ground in a mine of
continual miracle wrought by the
hand oi Gon, in His favor,{as are war-1
for his innocent life and his virtuons
industry.

A Bold Theft.
A gentleman from the country, yes
terday, was the victim of a bold rob
bery al the hands of a party of
negroes. He had sold his cotton, was
in funds, and, in celebration of the
event, had imbibed somewhat freely
of the li fluid. - ’ Being advised of the
favorable condition of the rural gen
tleman, it seems that the. party
watched close their opportunity,
pounced upon their prey, and relieved
him of his pocket-book, containing
about two hundred dollars. The pro
ceeds of their bold exploit were turned
over to the custody of one Tom
Roberts, who hails from the Old
Dominon. Tom, in good faith to his
associates, proceeded rapidly to the
banks of the Savannah to share among
them their ill-gotten gains. But the
keen eyes of the police ferreted out
their classic retreat; Tom fled, was
arrested, had a hearing before Justice
Phinizy, and is now enrolled in the
chain gang for a service of twelve
months.
In connection with this affair, one
John Williams, otherwise “John
Rabbit,’’ was also arrested and carried
to police headquarters, late yesterday
afternoon, and thence committed to
jail. Others are “ spotted," and our
vigilant police will take care of them.

“ Enterprise."’
The Atlanta Ji’v certainly displays
a great lack of enterprise tor a city
newspaper. We observe that only
about half the Message was printed jn
in that paper yesterday. Perhaps the
Era felt as Congress did on the sub
ject, and concluded that it would be
more palatable in broken doses.
The Vote Cast.
The Atlanta Constitution, of the
10th, informs us that the Democratic
Electors of the State met in that city,
yesterday, in response to the sum
mons "of Governor Bullock, and east
their votes for Seymour and Blair.
Colonel Alexander M. Wallace
was elected messenger to convey the
vote to Washington.
Profitable Employment.
There arc scords of young men in
the Soutß w ho arc just now doing no
thing hi the shape of labor for them
selves or their section of country, be
yond an attempt to ornament, without
fee or reward, street corners, grocer
ies and hotels. They- are all, or a ma
jority of them, professedly in search of
employment. But, in nine cases out
of ten, they only seek “easy berths’ - —
something that is remunerative, and
yet a business that will exact but an
inconsiderate amount of physical or
mental exertion. They don’t exactly
relish the idea of being regarded as
loafers, and were one to make a per
sonal application of the term, the re
sult would probably be the immediate
receipt of the contents of a navy-six,
and a subsequent coroner's jury to tell
how he died. We like this thing
called pluck; we. don’t object to a
man defending his honor, when as
sailed ; but we have always believed
that a man should be sure that he had
either principle or honor before he
went to war in its defence; and we
do not think that a man, who is either
too lazy to labor, or ashamed to be
seen at work, “reckons without his
host - ’ if he imagines that he possesses
much of either. It is true that many
of these young men were reared in
affluent circumstances; yet even that
fact goes but a short distance in exten
uation of their present thriftless course,
now that the necessity of self-exertion
rests upon them.
That an “ idle brain is the devil’s
workshop” is being Confirmed day
after day. The old imp knows full
well the value of this shelter, and he
has such an “eye to business,” that
he is continually roofing it over and
plastering it up, to keep out the light
of true reason. Thus these gentlemen
of “elegant leisure” and inglorious
ease, perhaps in a 'measure uncon
sciously, are affording the devil a very
desirable tenement for the manufac
ture of all manner of evil tothehuman
race.
Just issuea writ of eje tmeutagainst
.Mr. Devil; repair the damage which
his infernal designs have effected in
your mind; throw aside the senseless
inquiry for something '• easy to do,”
and measure the full extent of your
physical and mental strength iu good
honest lalnir. li you fail to make this
course advantageous and profitable,
you have already survived your uses,
and might, as a last resort, try editing
a new spafter

How to Neutralize Poison.
It is said that poison of any con
ceivable description and degree of
' potency, which has lieen swallowed
' intentionally or by accident, may be
rendered almost instaneoiiyly harm
less by swallowing two gills of sweet
oil. An individual with a very strong
constitution should take twice that
quantity. This oil will neutralize
every form of mineral or vegetable
poison with which physicians and
chemists are acquainted.

Sale Day in Edgefield, S. 4 .
In reference to the sale of property
at Edgefield Court House, S. C., on
Monday last, the Advertiser remarks:
As regard-; the stile rff property, Wc have
only to say that in many cases lands sold de
cidedly better than at any time since the
close of the war. We have only room for
one pr two examples: A certain tract of thir
teen hundred acres, lying on the Savannah
river, brought over $10,000; while a tnmt of
a thousand - acres, lying on the Columbia and

Meeting of the Con
vemion Yesterday.—The Comen
tion, called by the Putnam Agricul
tural Society, met at the City Hall at
101 o’clock yesterday morning. Owing
to the I’limlexii’ Convention being
called for to-'mdrrow, and the flcsirc
of delegates to attend both, it seems
to have been tacitly’ agreed in advance
that they both be merged into one.
Ans hence lew members attended the
meeting yesterday.
The Convention was called to order
by James A. Nisbet, who suggested
Hon. B. T. Harris, of Hancock county,
for Chairman.-mud, upon a motion,
Samuel A. Echols, of Fulton, as Sec
retary.
Upon ascending to the stand, the
Chairman, qaid he had uo personal
views to which he was wed. He was
here as a delegate from the Putnam
, Society. To-morrow another Conven
tion was to meet in this Hall, and it
would be for the meeting to determine
•whether it would not ask their coope
ration with it. He felt a deep interest
in the proceeding. AVe had thousands
of acres of land lying idle for want of
labor, .and he hoped some plan would
be adopted to secure this labor.
The delegates present then went
forward and handed their names to the
SecrAary - .
Col. Frank Schaller, from the Plan
ters’ Convention, ‘invited’tho l>o<l v to
meet with his Convention to-morrow.
C. W. Howard opposed any effort
to introduce European labor into
Georgia. He said he had been, as a
planter, trying that for twenty years
without success. He moved the ap
pointment of a committee of three by
the Chair, Io draw up an address, and
to memorialize the Legislature to
create a Department of Agriculture.
After some remarks by Messrs. Nesbit
and True, the motion was carried, with
instructions to the Committee to re
port to-morrow morning.
Whereupon the Chair appointed
Messrs. Howard, True and Hutton;
and the meeting adjourned.—

Death of the Largest Max in
Mai:y land. —John $. Elliott died at
his residence, Dixon’s Tavern, Queen
Anne’s county’, on Sunday evening
last, of pneumonia, aged filly-nine
years. He was the largest man ever
raised in Maryland, and perhaps in the
United States. A few years ago,
while exhibiting, he weighed nearly
five hundred pounds; of late he had
fallen off - , and his weight was reduced
to less than four hundred. In height
he was five feet ten inches, and two
feet across from shoulder to shoulder.
He generally enjoyed good health, but
the disease from which he died car
ried £im oft after a few days’ illness.
He was a native of that county, but
was well known in the adjacent coun
ties.—N'. K Commercial Advertiser.
