Within the past few days this conn
tv has been visited with splendid
showers of rain, which coaid not
have come at a better time. Cotton
.ras not suffering, but upland com
ind gardens were badly in need of it.
If ft should oontinne seasonable for a
short time the com crop in this coun
ty promises to be the largest since the
war. Cotton is no, generally as for
ward as it was last year, but where it
has been well cultivated looks very
promising.
From Um Augusta CointituUoaaliet, 71k.
We are informed by CoL 8. K.
Johnson, the able and energetic Su-
perintendent of the Georgia Railroad,
that one hundred and twenty bales of
cotton were shipped l'rom Nashville
on last Thursday night to New York,
by way of the Charleston line,
which includes the \Y> stem and At
lantic and the Georgia Railroads.
This is the first instance of the kind
that has occurred since the war, all
freights for New York having Wu
heretofore sent by the opposite route.
The management of the Georgia Kail
load is equal to that of any other road
in the United States, as its prosperity
and increasing business will attest,
and is using every means in its rower
to increase the freights aud enuunoe
the interests of the roud.
Worn the Cutbbert Appeal, 7th.
About one o’clock on the night of
the 3d inst, a daughterof Mr. Grant,
living in this county, was aroused
fromlier slumbers by the forcible en
trance of a negro man into her room.
Upon giving The alarm the" negro
made his escajxThe young lady’s
father aud brother came quickly to
the rescue, and were told the direc
tion taken by the negro, and also t at
he was in a state of nudity. These
gentlemen proceeded to the cabin of
a negro man employed on the farm,
and sure enough found him in the act
cf dressing. They carried him out
into the woods to give him another
kind of “dressing, but he made his
escape, followed by a few pistol balls,
the effect of which is- unknown.—
Nothing has boon seen of the negro
sinoe. Ilia wife came to tow n on
Tuesday aud Imd .Mr. Grant aud hi*
son arrested on the eltarge of murder.
They were released upon giving bond
for their appearance at the uext Su-
lx>rior Court.
From the Telegraph and Mcmcngar* 8th-
One of the most novel and hand
some improvements to be made at tho
Central City I’ark for the convo-
nienoe of visitors during the Fuir,
willbe the terracing of the lunik of
the river for one or two hundred yards
ulong tho grove, so as to seal safely
and conveniently a crowd of live or
six thousand persons within ten
fifteen steps of the water’s edge, while
the boat rat ing is going on. The
hunk at this point has naturally the
right'elevation and inclination for
making a flight of eight or ten steps,
•vith n rise of one foot each, and it
•vill cost comparatively but a small
amount of money to complete tho
work. While at the l’ark yesterday
morning we noticed that the race
track was I icing graded and widened,
and we were informed that it would
lie made one of the finest tracks in
the United States lieforethe work iijv-
u it would stop. The grounds n iw
ircscnta bust and stirring scene, as
u every port Ion of them squads of
laborers arc busy with the pick, shov
el, saw and ax. ’ in grading, fencing,
trimming and cleunng up.

ukah hirs Jxte this fall I purchased from you one oi your Findlay fc Craig Eclipse Patent Screw Cot-
mu Proves and after a full and fair trial, do Hot hesitate to pronmiuce it tho most rapid, of lightest
draught moat powerful—in fact, the best (without an exception) Cotton Press I ever aaw. Between this
an -1 all other Iron Screw Presses 1 have ever seen or used, there is Just simply n J ° 0 £jy , {* r Jjj£g F |^ ry
pUntecjhoul Jiw JJSumrmjr order in for two more of the above Presses for uext season, and may look
for many orders from this section • my neighbors are determined to have them, as they can pa* k by hand
twice as lio-t m *uy of the other Iron Screw Presses can by horse power. J. L. G.
Siuoo last fall, and before accepting Patent, we added improvements and labor-saving convenlences-
i enduring it PERFECT in every particular. The screw or pin, has a pitch, or fall, of C l 4 inches : Jhat is.
»t every
vice of the tube o
r the s
follower block descends (or ascends, as the case may be) 6inches. The dc-

oniinary mule can be substitutod for three men without change of fixtures. STRENGTH, DUKA-
11IIJTY RAPIDITY. LIGHT DRAUGHT, and STANDING ROOM attop of box, etc., etc., in short, we pro
nounce 'u the BEST Screw Prom IN TMB WORLD, and respectfully Invite a public test with any and all
