You will find ou pagen <>4 •6 of the acts of the Legi«!ature 1866, an act authori sing the Governor to apply for lauds for agricultu ral purposes and invest proceeds for beuefit of an Agricultural College. Upon personal interview with Governor Bullock a few days ago, lie informed me that wheu he received the scrip for the laud, In would hold it uutil the assembling of the lA>gi«la- 1 would then submit it to that body.

Visit of the Youug Christians to the President. The Younp Men’s Christian Associa tion have quite taken uossession of Wash ington. On Thursday evening they marched in procession to tho White House and called upon the President.— Including a few citizens who had heard of the intended reception, and a number of strangers who accompanied tho seven hundred delegates, there were upwards ... -ifo of a thousand persons present The pro- hi ssion was over two hours entering the White House. Some of the delegates sang as they came up the street and marched up to the entrance of the Ex ecutive Mansion. The “Star-spangled Banner" was sung while the line was in motion, aud also ncveral hymns. This rather astonish»-d quiet Washington.— Mrs. Graut, Mias Nellie, Judge aud Mrs. Dent, and two or three gentlemen stood near the President ui the head of the East Room, but did not assist in the re ception. The Hue of visitors seemed in terminable, aud much sympathy was ex pressed for the President’s fatigue, but it was noticeable that this sympathy was confined to those who had already shaken his hand, and was not understood by thoae whoso turn had not yet come.— After the prusoutatioM were over a “few remarks" were mud*', and “Praise God, from whom ail i»UM,iug* How," were *uug, aud well sung. too. ll was thrilling to hear so many voices joining iu “Old Hundred," and singing with a will.

The Plantation ot last week has the following in reference to the next semi-annual State Agricultural Convention: The last session of the Georgis State Agricultural Convention resolved to hold the tail or autum ses sion ln Rome, leaving to the di-u-retiou of the Presi dent the appointment of the day. At the recent session of thu special committee on the premium list, the President, upon consultation with the com mittee, fixed the day of the meeting ou Tuesday, the 8th of August The Becreiary informs us that he has had an Interview with Governor Brown upon the subject of the passage of the delegates over the Stats road.
