W< were indebted yesterday morning to Charles Collins, Esq., for a basket of strawber ries not one of which would have measured less than three quarters of an inch ;n diameter, (the breadth.) and some much larger. Tn theeven i.. >, on his invitation, we rode out tolook at his strawberry garden. 11 is a wonderful—a beau tiful sight. The most of his plants arc the Hovey seedling, and they are literally red with », rriv<- He thinks the yield of an acre during the M-asun. will be hardly less than sixty bush via. andafter seeing them we are prepared to believe almost any representation of the kind. His favorite variety, however, is the Albany *c;dling, an hermaphrodite variety, which he h:»- procured within the last two years, and is »<>w propagating in preference to all others.— This is a very large, thrifty vine—a splendid bear r, ami the fruit of astonishing size and tine 11 in or. A row of about twenty or thirty f. et h iixth hail already yielded several gallons, tuvl ua> then loaded with ripe and maturing fruit. Mr. Collins said that, with proper care, two or three such rows would be sufficient to supply any ordinary family with abundance of fruit during the season, and that a judicious fn< nd had estimated the yield at 100 bushels p r e. We believe the average size of the ripe lurries on these vines could not be less than fiie-eighths of an inch in diameter, meas uring the breadth and not the length. The Peabody prolific, he has discarded as worthless. This show of strawberries far exceeds anything ~f the kind we have ever seen.' APPEAL TO TIIE COTTON PLANTERS. At the of the President of the Cot ton Planter's Convention, we will keep before the public for a few weeks, his appeal to the Plante *r.‘ for a full representation at the meeting of the Convention in June next. He presents ■ t important considerations why the Cotton planting interests should take hold ol this sub- t. now it is fairly initiated, and strike at once -,>'tbi;ial independence. It can be achieved easily—profitably. ’-Ye have but to will it and our trade can be transferred directly to Eu —the importer’s profits saved, and cheaper and better goods furnished for our own con sumption. imported by our own merchants.— The Foreign manufacturers will venture half wsy in this undertaking, and if they had the < courage of their Northern rivals they would *ro agl>od deal further than that. If we will reflect for one moment upon the undeniable reactionary state of political feeling n< w existing in the Northern States, and its cause, we shall see at a glance where the true Southern policy lies. The very slightly dimin ish I trade with this section was sufficient, last fall, to call into action the most earnest efforts of the commercial and manufacturing interests to migrate the fanaticism of the North, and it .s ’....ra11y certain that by a serious and persist ent diversion of trade, we can address ourselves directly to the great body of the Northern vo ters. We can bring them to terms, and de monstrate, in this way, the absurdity of the ••irrepressible conflict, ’ a thousand times more clearly and forcibly than by public speeches and P<>bt cal documents. Let us call on old King Cotton to defend his own realm. BAILEY’S VARIETIES. This troupe have succeeded in attracting a crowded audience to their performances at RaNton s Hall. Lust evening they played “Our Am. ricin Cousin,” one of the richest comedies in the English language, to a full house, and e. ldom has an audience been more delighted.

M'MBEK roil?. ADDITIONAL MISCELLANEOUS ITEMS. Many inti resting subjects were discussed in thi< Convention, some of which involved ques tions of vital importance to the cause. These questions were thoroughly discussed, wisely determined, and most amicably adjusted. The Convention discovered a disposition, on the part of some of its members—arising purely from want of due reflection as to tendency and bear ing—to transcend the bounds marked by the original land-marks of the Young Men’s Chris tian Associations—a tendency to unwarranted innovation upon the original design of the ord c fliis was, practically, an error of policy ' yg “h.bitcd in the call for an endowment fund pw, the confederated body monied pow er. This step tended, in the vew of the Con ™- *° <<?« of centra/, which it wisely and promptly determined to snpiwess. The sense of this Convention clear- • ly was, not to have an endowment f un d, even if presented by gratuitous contribution; and un der the same view the “Young Men’s Christian Joums-l " was discontinued. By these decisions ol the Convention, the confederation determin ed that the Young Men’s Christian Associations are to be considered as merely social bodies, or ganized for the accomplishment of good in the immediate communities in which they are re- spectively located. Let all fears, then, and jealousies on the part of the regular Christian Ministry, in regard to encroachment upon their domains, be banished ’ (hir Associations mean only to assist them in the great work of doing good, and direct their special energies to vorxc, men, who certainly constitute the hape of the church, as well as the boast of the country.— Reports of the various Associations represented in the Convention, showed convincingly that much good was really being accomplished; that the means employed by Associations for uni t ing christiabs upon the common basis of Bible truth, were proving wonderfully efficient in ac complishing this great desideratum. The Re ports were highly gratifying, and greatly en couraged the hearts of the members to renewed zeal and energy in the work. The entire session of the Convention was harmonious and pleasant, and many thanks are due the Christian brethren and good citizens of New Orleans for their kindness and hospitalitv as exhibited to us—strangers away from home. They made every possible contribution to our comfort and enjoyment, and in return we would implore the blessings of heaven upon them.— The business of the session having been finish ed, the convention decided to meet next year in St. Louis. Previous to adjournment, we at tended en masse a public cantata or coronation of the Rose, played by the juvenile lassies of N. Orleans, and most charmingly did they sing.— The honored Queen not only outshone the oth ers in beautj’, but she warbled a voice of ex ceeding richness and mellifluence. May their young hearts be as radiant with Christian love, as were the flowers they severally represented, radiant with beauty and loveliness. Having listened to the farewell addresses, with “heavy hearts and glad,” we took the parting hand and soon rejoined the loved ones at home. MACON DELEGATE. HOTEL ARRIVALS. BROWN HOUSE—May 7.

CUBBEDGE, Agent, march 22 d Cotton Avenue. L 29 To the Cotton Planters of Georgia. PERIiT, May 4, 1860. “tir earnest and personal attention is called to ne cotitt'initiation of the “ Uottnn Planter’s Conven i<»n of the J*late of Georgia.” You are requested to i Lend its annual session, and become members, | ON THE 2d WEDNESDAY IN JUNE NEXT, IN MACON. she great purpose of this organization, is to pro. mote the interests of Cotton Planters. In this ad dress I will allude to some of the means used, and I others proposed to be used,, for the purpose of accom plishing this object. That larger numbers of people, everywhere, de rive their support from Cotton, than from any other . commercial commodity, is a self-evident faeUand I requires no argument for its elucidation. I Believing that very many of these people are usa i less in the transaction of Planter’s business the i C onvention is employed in devising means to re -1 duce their number, as well as to reduce the unrea sonable charges of those whose services are neces | sary It is both unreasonable and unjust that the Planters should be required to share, with so many, the fruits of his capital, skill ami industry. Now it is obvious that if the Planters can shake off a por i tion ot these useless agents, who have fastened and fattened on his sustenance, the amount pa d to them will be reserved to himself, and to that extent he will be benefitted, for “ money’ saved is money made.” Another means of promoting the interests ot j Planters is by establishing Direct Trade with foreign countries; this will be done, first by pur chasing from the manufacturer, and secondly by , selling directly to the manufacturer; thus in the i first place, the goods will be purchased cheaper, and in the second place Cotton will be sold higher, be ! cause it will be sold at the retail price. The details of this arrangement are now being established. In order that ..he above statement may be under stood 1 submit the following, addressed to David K. Dillon, of Savannah: “ Being informed that yen intend to give out con tracts fi.r well made bools and shoes, for the South America market, and that to this end, there have been made sample boots, we now take the liberty’ to I hand you our price current, with the remark that ! we are ready to furnish samples of our workman i ship. Calf skin boots of best French leather, per dozen 4-> rix dollars, or 3| rix dollars per pair. Calf skin, double-soled, per dozen, 48 rix dollars, or 4 rix dollars per pair. Calf-skin boots with cork soles, per dozen, 50 rix dollars, or 4 1-6 rix dollars per pair. Glazed boots with colored legs, per dozen 57 rix dollars, or 4$ rix dollars per pair. Respectfully, H. Schultze A Co., Boot and Shoe Manufacturers. Bremen, March 22,1860.” [The rix dollar is worth about 78 cents.] It will be seen from the above exhibit, that the Foreign manufacturer can furnish the article of Boots, at less than one-half the price paid for the same article when purchased in N< w York and sold I in the South I And so on with all other articles. The Convention has nothing to do with party poli tics, nor dare I, as one of its officers, meddle with things of that sort. Ido not propose to do so when I say, every instinct of patriotism, every sense of justice, requires that we should encourage and pro mote every effort which is calculated, in any way, to contribute to the establishment of Direct Trade; for j by this means we shall not only promote the inter j ests <>f Planters, but serve the cause of the country at large. The Northern States of the Union are engaged in schemes ot deadly hostility to the common constitu tion and the institutions of the Southern States. To the contemplative mind this is not only manifestly wrong, it is madness. The Northern States requite 800,000 bales of Cotton annually, to supply their fac tories—they also depend upon the South to purchase a large portion of the articles they manufacture from the Cotton ; now it would seem reasonable that the Northern States should exhibit, much solicitude in keeping open these sources of commerce and wealth, instead of which, the course they pursue is calculated, it successful, to defeat themselves by its inevitable results. Is it necessary to say that frtela bor, however organized, cannot produce one-half of the Cotton required? Is it necessary to say'that the amount of Cotton required can only be produced, bi/ slavelabor? Has not England, with every desira ble means at her command, made the experiment in the East Indies, of growing Cotton by free labor, been j compelled to acknowledge the experiment a failure? I Has not France tailed in her African experiment, j after the most earnest trial ? And every where, over the world, where efforts have been made to grow Cotton profitably, by free labor, the efforts have re sulted in failure. Indeed, if the South were to establish a system of free-labor for the purpose of growing Cot ton, under the very best arranged system, the. effort would be, to a very great extent, a failure. Notwith standing these indisputable facts, the Northern States, under the influence of political demagogues and hypocritical preachers, are engaged in the sui [ cidal effort ot establishing abolitionism; whereas, if I that be done they are to be the greatest sufferers ! . New York is the principal city where our mer : chants ob’ain their supplies. Hence come our 'fash ! ions. We purchase things imported from N. Y’ork, j rather than from any other place* Now, the Con ■ vent ion proposes, by Direct Trade, to obviate the ' necessity of purchasing in New York, by having im ported, direct to Savannah, the articles now pur l chased by our merchants in New York, and retailed i to their customers. The State of New York, (the residence and supporter of Seward, the embodiment of abolitionism,) is as conspicuous as any other in i opposition to slavery; therefore, Southern merch i aiits should refuse to make their purchases in the 1 city of New York, and the Southern people should refuse to deal with those merchants who will stil continue to purchase there, more particularly and especially as by Direct Trade the same articles of merchandize can be procured at a reduced price to both merchant and customer. A Fair is contemplated to be held in the city of Macon, during the month of December next. There will be exhibited at that time and place, not only a large collection of articles usually exhibited at Fairs, but a large amount ot Foreign goods, imported di rect from the countries in which they have been manufactured : thus, the people will have an oppor tunity of ascertaining the truth of the statements made in this address. For the purpose of insuring j the success of this arrangement, the Convention has i sent abroad its agents. T1 is entire proceeding has been adopted primari . ly, tor the benefit and advantage of the Cotton Plan ! ters of the State of Georgia ; it is certainly reason able to say, that every Planter in Georgia, whether he grows many or few bales, should give the Con vention his hearty support. Heretofore, compara tively but few have had toperform the labor and sustain the expense necessarily connected with the undertaking ; it i i hoped that Planters everywhere, will feel it their duty to attend the meeting in June,’ and identify themselves with the Convention. Editors friendly to the Convention are requested to publish this address. HOWELL COBB, Pres. Convention. FRESH GOODS?
