Removal into* new BaiMlag.
The Stm Orntm hat been removed
from ita late stand on the oornar of Broad
and Alabama street*, to the adjaoent new
building on Broad street, lately erected
by Chief J uetioe Loehrane. A leaae for
the term of five years has been obtained
upon this entire building, and our pur
pose is to fit it up substantially and con
veniently for our business. The busi
ness office is on the ground floor of the
building, where business oan be transact
ed at any hour of the day and at all rea
sonable hours of the night. The edito
rial and composing rooms are in the
third story. The press room will be in
the basement.
Taken altogether, we think we now
vc one of the most desirable locations
or a printing office in the oity. The
uildiug is admirably adapted for it, and
it is sitnated near to all the principal
business thoroughfares.
We arc entirely pleased with our new
habitation end, as it affords us better fa
cilities for work than we have had here
tofore, wo think we shall be able to make
the Sen a bolter paper than it has hither
to been.

The Cotton Crop of 1871.
The New York HeraUl says :
It appears from the reports which have
come to the Bureau of Agriculture from
nil the cotton-growing States of the South
that the area of cotton planted this year
is on an average of between fourteen and
fifteen per.cent. less than last year, which
is equivalent to noarly a million and a
third acres. It is estimated, therefore,
that the crop of 1871 will not exceed
three and a half millions of bales, and
that should the season prove uupropi-
tious, not more, perhaps, than three mil
lions of bales. The planters are growing
iug more corn and other products for
home consumption this year. They find
by experience that a large crop of cotton
brings no more, or but little more, mon
ey than a short one, the i>rioe in the mar-
kot being regulated by the supply. We
cannot blame the planters for studying
their ov/u interests in this matter, while
at the same time we may regret to see
cotUu hi 0 h and cotton goods doaror. In
this case the Iohs to fhe world seems to be
n gain to the planters. Cheap ootton is
n great boon, undoubtedly, to mankind
ns well as to manufacturers, and we hope
the time will oome when the production
of this article may la* cheapened by the
use of nmchiutT} and improved methods
of cultivation.
TIM It**— —* Waiters Ball-- ond * quarter millions of dollars from
I^aia. it« Dm «cocid|oiderg.., Example* of
Tlio Crops.
Wo continue to receive very unfa
vorable reports concerning the crops
in this region of country—particu
larly cotton. Those planters who
f|K ak hopefully of their ability to res
cue their cotluu from tho grass, add
that they find it the very hardest job
of the kind that they ever under
took. Hut many of them have no
hope, or very slight hope, of being
able to save all llieir cotton. The
long-continued rains left their crops
so uncommonly grassy that even with
as large a force as they could desire
the job of cleaning them was a very
difficult one—the cotton being quite
small and sieklv. and most of it not
thinned to a stand. But many plant
ers have at this critical ]X‘riod lieen
short of hands. We have hoard of
their offering a dollar a day for hoe
hands without sueeeSB in getting
them. One of the hardest things in
tho world to accomplish is the coax
ing of an unengaged negro from the
weals m blackberry time. They will
pick blacklierries day after day, and
sell their pickings for four or five
dime;, before they w ill “chop” cotton
at a dollar a chu and toned.
The alarming comliuon of the
cotton crop has also caused much of
the com to he neglected at a time
when it mo*t needed working. We
ure sorry to say that the prospect ol
a large corn crop is tioi m-ar so good
os it was too wo ksago. It grew van
fast during the rains, but the grass
grew too, and the corn that was not
promptly cleaned now begins to look
yellow. 'It needed good attention to
maintain its vigorous start, and this
the deplorable condition of the cotton
crop ha* not permitted it to receive,

Bacon, June 21,1871.
7b At SodAoUm <tf At Macon and
Water* Railroad :
GlinxiireN—With feelings of
more than ordinary reluctance, am I
induoed to obtrude on your attention,
but a sense of duty to the railroad in
terest I represent, will not allow me
to pais unnoticed the slurs cast, and
misrepresentations made by your
President in his last circular, directed
against the Macon and Brunswick
Railroad Company.
In this communication, allusion is
made to the offer tendered by tho
Maoon and Brunswick Company for
the lease of the Macon and Western
road, as being unworthy of notice, by
reason of informality, a want of guar
antees, and to quote hit own worth to
yon, “This offer had nothing in it to
entitle it to respect or consideration.”
The communication was submitted
to your Board during my absence, by
the Secretary of the Macon and
Brunswick Company, Mr. K. Emmet
according to direct instructions from
me as President, acting under advise
ment with our Board of Directors.—
Ita genuineness was vouched for by
one of your directors in attendance,
Mr. L. N. Whittle. •
The bid was a bona fide bid made
in good faith, elicited by an intima-
mation received that your Board de
sired to lease out your Itood. The
bid contemplated and named a fixed
rate of 12 per cent per annum divi
dend on your entire capital stock,
and which was guaranteed to your
Directory by the knowledge ot the
fact, that it was backed by parties
owning near one-third interest in
your own stock, as well as being men
of means and wealth. This bid, will
if desired, be renewed to you at your
Convention and will be accompanied
with such guarantees os will establish
beyond any dispute its validity and
strength.
The secresy attending the obioct of
the special meeting of your Board,
rendered it almost impossible to know
what was required in the way of a
proposition, and it must be admitted
the bid was not solicited.
These facts shonld not however
have caused the proposition to be re
jected so ignomiuioitsly, not being al
lowed even a place on the minutes of
the meeting, and the bid might have
been politely declined, and perhaps
been made serviceable to your Board
in strengthening their position in
their negotiations for the lease of
your property to the Central.
The rate named in our bid, vis: 12
per cent, is as you will agree, a very
high rate on your recently inflated
capital, and was only warranted on
our part by reason of the extreme im
portance of your Macon and Western
road, it being our only outlet and
means of supply without building
other lines. Tne Southwestern Road
having been, about two yeurs since,
closed to us by a lease in a similar
manner to the Central.
Before leaving this matter of the
bid of the Macon and Brunswick
Railroad Company for the leaso of
the Macon and Western Railroad, I
wish distinctly to state and so have
it clearly understood, that in making
this hid, wc did not, nor do wc now
enilorso tho policy of leases except in
special cases, nor did we seek to draw
tne Macon and Western Railroad into
any entangling alliance with our
Company. The bid was elicited, us
before represented, on a hint being
given that the Board would consider
a lease of your Road to the Central,
negotiations having already com
menced for that purpose.
Tho disastrous effect of n similar
lease as contemplated by you, is well
exemplified in tne ease of the South
western to the Central, previously re
ferred to. The stock of which Com
pany, from being in demand ot 1,11
finds now d 'll sale at tt'.
To show, however, that the bid
made to yon was worthy of “consul-
oration,” anil that it was within the
power of the Macon and Brunswick
Railroad Company to have fulfilled
the obligations incurred under the
conditions, it is only necessary to cor
rect an omission mode liy your Presi
dent as to the extent of our business,
and in doing so, prove by his own
figures his inferences to be unfouud-
d and conclusions unjust.
In summing up theearnings of the
two linos, vis: the Maoon and Bruns
wick and Maoon and Western, to
how the amount of the earnings
during the lease if consummated,
whereby, of course, the entire busi
ness betwocn Atlanta and Savannah
and Brunswick, would lie carried over
the united lines, as is the case in the
lease between tho Central and South
western in regard to all business be
tween Columbus, Eufnula, etc., to
Savannah, your President simply
sums up the earnings of our two
lines the past year, omitting altogeth
er out of liis estimate, the amount of
business to and Trora the Central
Road derived from the Macon and
Western, an omission amounting in
freights alone—as shown by the Cen
tral reports—to #196,430,93, and in
passengers about *83,281.13, making
the small sum of *279,712.08 projier-
ly due to tho credit of the gross earn
ings of tho Macon and Brunswick
Road. Over a quarter of a million of
dollars of earnings omitted-—a slight
error, which tells heavily on tho
wrong side of a balance sheet, or es
timate. A further allowance is natu
rally due to a reasonable increase in
earnings over the amount shown by
the first twelve months'operations or
an entirely new line. Tins increase
for the live mouths since our last re
port, amounts to *62,707.70, over the
earnings for the same months of the
past year, which, if continued, would
give a difference of *150,498.48, for
the twelve month*.
The history ot every road attests
the i'aci of an iuipruvetuenl m biui-
uees Willi every year of its life. Some
road* from a condition of absolute
poverty and bankruptcy, rising to be
loading routes. Prominent amongst
the number stands your own road,
which succumbed ere ita completion,
and was sold out under the hammer
of the Sheriff. This swept away one
this soft are -so numerous, however,
la to require n* further discussion of
tiie fact that earnings and businees
steadily increase.
I append a corrected statement,
bringing into the acoouut the omis
sion of yonr President as well as the
gain which may-be expected during
the twelvd months, which statement
shows that the Macon and Brunswick
road cannot only pay all her own ob
ligations in the way of expenditures
and interests, but also the amount of
*300,000 guaranteed to you, without
fail, and have a balance of some *33,-
652.75.

In reiterating tho assertion that the
bid made for leasing your road, was of a
bona fide character, uud that the Maoon
and Brunswick Railroad haa the ability
of carrying oat the obligations without
calling ou the New York guarantors, I
will hi re close my remarks My object
boa been to vindicate tbe character of the
bid ao slightingly alluded to in the late
circular, as well as to show our ability of
carrying out the leaae. It is not my pro
vince to go into a discussion of tho ques
tion of the nature of this lease to the Cen
tral, neither of its polioy, nor to inquire
into the motives of tho movers iu this
lease, nor into the manner in which it has
been attempted to be accomplished.—
These are questions which yon as stock
holders must weigh and judge.
The effect of the lease of your road to
tha Central would be of such manifest
disadvantage to the Macon and Bruns
wick us to require no oomment. If it be
tho intention of the Central Road to
break down and sell out our road, as is
openly avowed by tile leading Director iu
the Central, we beg tluit yonr assistance
be nut given to swell the present odds
against us.
We must also protest against the mere
bl<! of the Maoon and Brunswick Railroad
Company being used as a “reason” for
driving you into a lease of your proper-
tj.
Previous to the late circular the gen
eral understanding seemed to be that
the aubeription of Atlanta to the Atlanta
and TennUle road, with the still heavier
subscription to be expected from Savan
nah, ware the "reasons" why vour road
should be leased to the Central. Unfor
tunately for ns of the Maoon and Bruns
wick road, the President of that enter
prise, Mr. Hiram Roberta, haa magnani
mously oome forward after being in
formed that yonr road had been leased to
the Central, thus relieving yonr fears as
to the building of this rival line, by the
annum,cement t-lmt Ida road lias accom
plished its purpose by breaking down
"one monopoly" supposed to refer to
that of the Maeoa and Western, and now
dual*, 1871.
