City Printer—Official Paper
LA BGEST" ClTf CIKCULATION.
WEDNESDAY MORNING. ..Aug. 29, 1866
Cotton Inspection Districts in
Georgia. —The new Internal Revenue
law requires the Commissioner of In
ternal Revenue to designate certain
places in the cotton-growing regions of
the South where the Assessors and Col
lectors of Internal Revenue shall repair
to inspect cotton brought in by planters
for that purpose. Acting Commissioner
Holland has just commenced to make
the designations for the Fourth Collec
tion District of Georgia: Mondays—
West Point, Ringgold and Athens. Tues.
days—Lagrange and Athens. Wednes
days—Newnan and Social Circle.
Thursdays—Palmetto, Kingston and
Rome. Fridays—Atlanta, Cartersville
and Stone Mountain. Saturdays—
Jonesboro’ and Marietta.
New and Dangerous Counterfeits.
—Counterfeit §SO compound interest
notes of July 16, 1864, counterfeit fives
on the Citizens’ National Bank of Ful
ton, N. Y., and counterfeit fives on the
First National Bank of Cairo, Illinois,
have made their appearance. The points
of difference between the counterfeit and
the genuine §SO interest notes are so
slight as to require the closest observa
tion to detect them. The words “three
years after date” on the top of the bill
nearly touch the words “Treasury De
partment,” while in the genuine there is
a space three-eighths of an inch between.
The last button of Hamilton's coat is a
quarter ot an inch from the lower margin
of the small ssos, while in the genuine
the button touches the margin.
. Protracted MEE-ring.—We are glad
to announce that a protracted meeting is
being held in the Baptist Church of this
place. Besides the Rev. Luther Gwat
ney, resident pastor, the Ilev. Mr. May
field, a gifted and zealous minister, from
Laurens* and Rev. Mr. Mealing, of our
District, are in attendance. They have
been preaching twice or thrice a day
since Sunday morning, to large and in
terested audiences. If we mistake not,
their attention is to labor for some days
in special efforts for the revival of pure
and undefiled religion ; and for increase
of spirituality and holy zeal among the
children of the kingdom ; and for the
conversion and reclamation of the chil
dren of the world. Our earnest hope—
the earnest hope of every right-minded
man—is for the amplest blessing of > od
upon their efforts.— Edgefield Adver
tiser.
Death of Two well known Citizens-
With much regret we chronicle the
very recent death of two well known
citizens of this District—than whom
none were more respected—John W.
Munday, Esq., of the Antioch vicinity,
and James M. Harrison, Esq., of the
neighborhood of Liberty Hill.—Edge
field Advertiser.
—A carpenter who was always prog
nosticating evil to himself was one day
upon a five story building, upon
which had fallen a rain. The roof being
slippery, he lost his footing, and, as be
was descending toward the eaves, he ex
claimed : “Just as I told you 1” Catch'
ing, however, in the tin spout, he kicked
off his shoes and regained a place of
safety .from which he thus delivered him
self: “I know’d it—there’s a pair of
shoes gone to thunder 1”
—As an instance of the value of small
things, it is ascertained that eyelets,
costing but seventeen or eighteen cents
per thousand, are consumed to the value
of four million dollars per year, so that
over two hundred and fifty thousand
millions of these little conveniences are
annually used in hoop-skirts, shoes, etc.
—The vast herds of buffaloes which
darkened the Westen plains a few years
ago are fast disappearing, and some
means will have to he adopted to keep
the ludians from starving in con
sequence.
—An Irishman, on being told to
grease the wagon, returned in about an
hour afterwards and said: “I’ve greased
every part of the wagon but them sticks
the wheels hang on."
Governor Orr has issued a proclama
tion, convening the South Carolina Le
gislature in extra session on the 4th of
September. The purpose is the adapta
tion of State laws to the recent acts of
Congress, and for the relief of financial
embarrassments of the people of the
State.
