But ' a few days ago, train scape cause or other Unknown to m, Me. Oram’s Association was closed np, and the Associated Press left in possession of the field. We 1 were informed that the former, in arranging with the latter,' hud provided for its adherents and supporters ; but it ap pears that we were mistaken. ! Par, on Tuesday night, we received the subjoiued letters from Mr.-Walsh, the Agent in this City of the New York Associated Press, which snows that the old effort to crush the Dam.*' , PitksS has been re newed. It will be seen that we are required to pay five hundred dollars each to Stockton A Cos., of the Daily Constitutionalism, and Henry Moore, of t>e Chronicle & Sentincly jrtsq to pay one third the amount of telegraph tolls by these parties duriug the time Mr. Craig's Associatiou was in existence ;> and to give security lor the 'paynieht'.ofi our weekly dues for six months. >/..! t Iu order to give otif readers all the latest of The day, and to publish a paper for $5, per aiinum, equal to those which the people are asked'to pay $lO a year for, -we have accepted these terms! In doing aw, we protest against the injustice ol the course of these pa pers, and can look upon it in no other light than an. effort to break down the Daii.t Press. Wifi the community sustain them in skith a course; or will' they support this paper, which, amid all the efforts tap entob it, lip«tith flpuriah iug, and, with fHfe help €f the gdneroUs cummunity, will continue to prosper and flourish, despite the efforts of its enemies? ’ , We append the correspondence here : and submit the subject to the people of Augusta and of Georgia, for their con sideration and action. They will bear in mind that we have paid one thousand datlug* to the Chronicle <fc Sentinel and CourtUuiiona!ist, of this City, for the privilege of Jufidishing our telegraphic news ! If the Daii.y Press goes down, upwards of twenty men would be thrown out of employment, and their families left without the moans of support.* To .-support this piper, therefore, is to give support to industrious and deserving men, and. at the same time, rebuke in justice and abortive efforts to grush out a cotemporary by an unfair and up generous policy.

Messrs. Hilliard and Lallerstedt also spoke effectively in behalf of their client; and the Jury, after a brief brought in a verdict of “pot guilty.” M A Cltti Park;— Mr. Tweedy, the active pud eiiergetic Member from the Second Ward in Council, always with a* eyq k the “utile et dulce," has sugt gested that a City Park should be laid out and enclosed in the rear of the SeCfud Ward. He frgues, tiuly, that most cities of the size and population of Augusta have public Parks, while firg have none. We hope that Mr. Tweedy will persist in carrying out this policy, and securing a beautiful Park in sotiie convenient and accessible location. There ought to be public squares in all 1 irge aities. They are lungs, through whjSsfo crowded commuities ran breathe the fresh air and recuperate exhausted energies. Let ns by all means have a, “handsome Park, laid outtwith walks’, with trees, and beautiful foun tains and statues. 'l'heAmly serious cost would be in the iron railing fenp closing the Park ; but we think that the people would be willing to consri bute something in the way of a sub scription tp aid in the construction of •the Park, while the wood work would not be very great.

Sjie earnestly impressed on her hearers the necessity of in ftV’' purity of charac *t6ir and' tind wound up by briefly discussing reconstruction, taking an extreme Radical stand-point, and somewhat savagely handling Andrew Johnson and his policy. The PkJiT flome (6a.) Courier makes the following sensible remarks on the value of the fruit crop: It is sometimes the case that people jrfeailjy under-estimate the value of some. 1 snurctes of poo fit, and thus lose what might constitute a veuy pretty income. The fruit crop in this section of the country fins for several years been increasing iir value, tanee, but it is not wholly appreciated yet. If nil.the. peaches and apples that grow in Floytf totiDty find been properly dried, the price they would have sold for would have been equal to a tolera ble cotton cron. Then trim np your fruit trees, and make your arrange ments to make the most of the ne«t crop. From the following statement, by th * President, of the exports over the Rome Railroad, it will be seen that there have been shipped from here, this season, lojiD'Jr tlushely of fruit. Now, allowing two thirds ot this to be peaches, at $3 per bushel, and the balance, apples, at |>1.25, it would amount to $37,922. Just Suppose, that ten ifyies US.much fruit had Itecu I 'dfted“—whiell mibhl 1 have been done—and you would have had an in come from fruit of $397,220. .

'{Alii am her of District of Columbia bills passed, when Mr. Stevens’ Enabling Dill was discussed. Mr. Payne opposed the second section of tbe Stevens’ bJI, which recognised tbe present State Governments which he de- speech ' an hour and a quarter. He said tbe bill instead of being oue of reconstruction, was one of destruction ; instead of restoration, was for disunion and perpetual dismemberment. He showed the absurdity of denying tho tsbel States being States, by showing that Congress, Courts, and tbe Executive, had recognized them. He' knew that those rebels had ridged the land with graves. He knew that four hundred thousand citisen* had fallen martyrs to the country and the Constitution. Itwasinview of their great transgressions that tbe proposed universa forgiveness rose into tho sublime, and chal lenged a parallel in history. He protested agaiust the hill as foreign to tho spirit and purposes of the Constitutional Amendment. He closed by moving to refer the bill to the Coimuitteo on Heyopstruction. Mr. Dawson spoke in opposition to the bill. V - When tbe speaker’s hammer fell at the cljso of his hour, Mr. Spaulding moved an extension, but Ur- Slovens objected, and qp, Mj.
