Cunu County Aoiiicilthial Society— U Uf. CoLQUIlT' An ExmUULNTAL F*UM ih,Ao.-1u the lust number of tlia Marietta Journal (16lb inst.) we find the proceed ing* of Ibe meeting of tbe above named society, at which a letter was read from Oen. A. H. Colquitt agreeing to nddreos the Society at their meeting in March This Society has regular monthly meet ings, which are well attended, and in which the people of the oounty takes deep interest. It held monthly county Fairs during all tbe Spring and Sommer of last y<er, which baa given aaiiob it* petns io the cause of Agriculture, reaul ting in a marked improvement in cultiva ting the soil. At the meeting above referred to, tbe thanks of the Society wero tendered to Oen. Colquitt for tbe interest manifested by Marintha inoccaa of our Experimen tal Farm, and for bis efficient services in promoting the agricultural interests of the State. The Agricultural Society at Powder Springs, and the Societies of adjacent counties were invited to be present at the meeting in March. On motion, Oen. P. M. B. Young was requested to attend the Savannah Con vention in the interest of the Institute, and to act with the delegation from Cobb county. The stock book for the Experimental Farm was then opened, and the stock hugely increased. The Secretary was instructed to keep the stock book open in his office until tbe next meeting. Tbe meeting adjourned till the third Tuesday in March, which will, no doubt, be an interesting occasion. Tex Gxoboia Hiutaby Institute.— This splendid Institute at Marietta was demolished by Sherman. After the war the Federal officers and Northern people who were engaged in the work of deco rating the graves of tbe Northern sol diers, dug up entire grounds, which were well set in grass, to make sods for their cemetery. It seemed that spocial pains were taken to demolish the entire proper ty, and do os much damago to it as pos sible. After a portion of the farce of recon- struclion, as it was called, was gono through with; after Bullock was mode Governor by force, fraud and intimida tion, and the peculating Legisla ture, which did the bidding of tbe plundering Bing, was duly in stalled, a few of the prominent citizens of Marietta, in order to stop the devas tating process and iuaugurato some steps towards rehabilitation, mado appli cation to Bullock and his Legislature, and in complianco therewith, an act was passed and approved donating tho entire Military Institute property to a number of gentlemen who were denominated Trustees of the “Marietta Mule Acade my." Wo laive not tho act before us, and cannot givo a full list of the nnmes, but tho following is a part: Wm. Phillips, A. P. Rood, W. D. An dorson, W. P. Andorson, Wm. F. Groves, A. 8. Edmonson, H. M. Hammott, T. J. Atkinson, A. York, J. S. Burkholter, J. W. Bozeman, R Stripling. Wo regret that wo are unablo at this moment to give all the names or givo fuller particu lars of the act. We learn that these men had a private understanding among themselves at the time, that whenever an opportune time should ar rive, the property would be tendered back to the State, and the reorganization of the Military Institute asked for. The Trustees proceeded to work, and have erected a clever edifice, with speciul reference to have it largely added to, so as to make the work done serviceable for the purposes intended. Bya recent action of this Board of Trakees, and the concurrence of the au thorities and citizens of Marietta, the grounds and building have been placed at the disposal of the State. We learn, also, that the formers of Cobb county have purchased a good farm, which is intended to be connected with the Institute, os an experimental /arm, to be conducted by an experienced and scientific farmer, who will make tests and experiments with fertilizers and the cultivation of all products. An analyti cal chemist and fine Laboratory ore con templated. The present Trustees have expressed a preference for one of tho first military men of the age for Presi dent of the Institute, if the objects con templated ore carried out. At the lost meeting of tho Cobb County Agricultural Society the following resolutions were adopted: Resolved, |Tliat this Society heartily reoommend and urge upon its members and the citizens of this and adjoining bounties their co-operation and assistance in establishing an Experimental Farm, to be connected with the Georgia Mili tary Institute, now being rs-organized and re-established. Resolved, That this Sooiety regard with unusual pride aud satisfaction the 10- establishment of the Georgia Military lnotitnU—and especially so, as the pro posed system will meet the wsnts of mil nlsssm -mating education practical, and not merely theoretic, without the knowl edge of the proper application. Resolved, That in the opinion of this ployment to millions in manafacturing cotton, wool and rich ores—here every inter, at of every section can unite, and each promote the other; ami because tbe Georgia Military Insti tute whs iu itself unaided by the now proposed departments, both honorable ami useful to tbe State, her cadets having chambers, saving but little, comparative ly, of our household comforts. My daughter, Mrs. Pearson, and an old and faithful family servant, entered tbe burning building io a fruitless attempt to save some valuables. True to the last the old servant went too far to return. .She made her escape through a wiudow Mitten tluir names on the brightest but too lute. Her clothing having t u *ht scrolls of her history in the darkest hour | she was so badly burned before tho lire of lier trial, and now scarce a corporal's j could be extinguished that she expired guard is lull to record tlie names and | in a few hours. My daughter was dis ced in the house when it w s almost loft to of the dead; urouud the spot where once stood'the edifices of Georgia*! Military Institute, now marked by charred brick aud ashes iu ruins, cluster sacred memories which time cannot ef face, nor the virtuous and brave cease to love. These memories appcul to Georgia and to every Georgian. Resolved, That this i^pciety unite with the trustees, and appeal to the founders and professors of the Georgia Military Institute, Col. Brumby, Col. ltobertson, Col Kichardsou, Gen. Capers, Capt Manget, and every professor and cadet, to aid in the effort to re-establish tho “Institute” on the piopoacd basis; and to this end ask their personal attendance at the State Agricultural Convention on the 22d February, at Savannah, aud at the next session of the Geuerul Assem- biy. A couple of La Grange little boys went out to shoot one day lust week and didn’t carry their arrows aud bows, but naughty naughty guns instead, aud one of them came home with a charge of bird-shot tingling in various parts of his body. Little boys should never go out shooting unless they be sure to leave their guns with their mamas. The La Grange Brass Band lias provided itself with horns at an expense of $316 50 and is now trying to raieo the Mind to pay for them. The premises of Mr. W. W. Haughton, in Augusta, was burglored a few nights ago. Loss $1,800 in gold. A correspondent of the Chronicle aud Sentinel, writing from McBean says: ‘On the night of the 31st of January, Marcos Ellis and Daniel Walker disput ed about an axe; Marcus settled it by stepping into his cabin aud thrusting the muzzle of a guu through a crack and shooting Daniel dead. The Industrial Association of Georgia is still harrossed about that little debt which it ow'es. The Hawkinsville Dispatch has quit ro- mauciug about that gourd-vine, and is now counting the eyes in a 2J pound po tato. It. E. Lee (son of Gen. Lee) and ludy ore in Savannah. Nathan Toomer, of Mucou county, bus been bailed, iu Macon, in tho sum of $1,250, ou tho charge oi cheating and swindling. He was not a State ltoud man. Abbott is pantomiming iu Augusta. A lost baby, or ratlior a found baby, is been carried home to tho Macon Telegraph, in search of an owner. Governor Smith, says the Macon Tele graph, certainly deserves to be congratu lated. Ho bus won the disapprobation and censure of the notorious Radical sheet mblishcd in this city and tolerably well mown in Georgia us one of tho fittest exponents of its party to bo found any where. The mere statement of this fact is one of the strongest t videnoes—and as such will bo received by the respectable people of the State—that Governor Smith is doing his duty like an honest man. The Covington Ktamincr of $lio 16tb has the following: The community was startled, on Tues day last, by the announcement that Mr J. Y. Tinsley had been found dead iu his house. Justice Woodson, acting us Cor oner, proceeded to have a jury summon ed to the Court House, from wlienco they proceeded to tho residence of Mr. Tinsley, near the Georgia Railroad, where they found his corpse Ivin# upon the face, under the bed. At the inquest held over the body, the following facts couceruiug his death were elicited: That for some time past he had been intem perate in his habits ; that his wife lmd left him, ou Friday last, aud gone to her father’s, iu Atlautu ; tliut he was unwell on Sunday morning, but hail a flask half filled with whisky; that ou Monday night, about 9 o’clock, he went to a uei *h- bor’s house, on au adjoining lot, where he made some disturbance ; that the gen tleman of the house, aided by two other gentlemen, assisted him back home; that ho vns then iu an unsound state of mind and body; that they gave him some cof fee and brandy, which relieved him, aud he fell into a quiet sleep, when they left him; that two of the gentlemen returned on Tuesday about 1 o’clock to see how he was, when they fouud him lyiug upon his face, under the bed, cold aud stiff. The verdict of tho jury was that “lie camo to his death from tho eflcctj of con tinued intemperance.” There was a shooting scrape i»i War* renton last Monday, but nobody was hurt, and tbe Clipper is very sad. J. 0. Kimball has kindly consented to be Superintendent of the Griffiu, Mon- ticello and Madison Railroad. Died, in Wilkes county, ou tho 11th, Mr. William Chaff u, aged 23. The Washington Gazette of Friday announces the death of Mrs. Martha Corbin, on last Thursday afternoon, which occurred while engaged in her household duties; she fell suddenly ou the floor and expired immediately.

We succeeded, al most miraculously, in rescuing her. But for the rain at the time, my mills, meat-house, etc., would liave me* with a similato fate. Our valuables, several watches, and many handsome premiums, with other silver plate, furniture, etc., were lost. My loss is quit. heavy—sev eral thousand dollars—besides tbe build- iugs. The origin of the fire, iu our opini >n, is, that it communioated from the care lessness of the cook in depositing ashes from the cook stove into a wooden vessel and it taking fire. Hearing tliat various speculations are in circulation as to the origiu of the fire, aud also, as to our loss, I send you this hastily written letter.

Wo escaped from our I I am a stockholder, and I will tell you LITERARY NOTICES. A COMPARATIVE HISTORY OF RELIGIONS: by Jahu C. Moffat, D. D., Professor In tho Theo logical Seminary In Princeton: Published by Dodd & Mead, New York. This, wo apprehend, is one of the most deeply interesting and permanently val uable works of the times. The author is a scholar of extensive attainments, and is thoroughly versed in the department of Oriental Literature. The position he oc cupies in one of our most renowned and venerable seats of sacred learning is de cided evidence in favor of his superior cullure and piety, and this late labor of bis pen, beyond question, places bim in tbe first rank of American scholarship. Professor Moffut has poured a flood of light on a field of thought which, for ages, has been enveloped in immense ob scurity aud doubt. For tbe last half contury the subjects of Philology and Ethnology have excited pecu liar interest among the scholars of different countries, and tho writer be fore us, availing himself of all the lights of former discoveries, has here embodied the results of his patient and extensive researches. He introduces his discussion with tho statement that religious wor ship, in some form, is natural aud uni versal—that human beings in all ages and under every type of civilization have sought, by certain methods, to render roverenco and homage to a Supremo Be ing. Ho agrees with the author of the Consulate and Empire that “man must worship at some altar, whether it bo ven erable, blood stained or dograded.” Ho divides the great religions of tho world, ancient aud historic, into six classes : First, the Hebrew and Christian ; second, the Egyptian ; third, tho Persian ; fourth, tho Hindu ; fifth, tho Chinese; and sixth, the Buddhist. Each ouo of these religious has its sacred books or records to which it ap peals for law and testimony. The first looks to tho Bible; tho second rnaiuly to certain monuments of great antiquity; the third to the Avcsta; the fourth to the Veda; the fifth to tho collection of books called King; and tho sixth to LUe Tripi taka. All are still existing as ri ligions except the Egyptian, aud even many of its elements survivo under new names. Now tho Princeton professor avers that nothiug, in his inquiries, has interested und surprised him more th. n tho extent of the substantial similarity of all these rol igious creeds. Ho says they all agree conceiving of a Supreme Ruler of llcarcn and Earth, who is personal and spiritual resident in Heaven, but also everywhere present; who is almighty, wise and holy; severely just, but also kind and beneficent to men, and hears their petitions when they worship Him aright. They all agree that man is a sinner, and justly liable to pun ishment. They all contain confession of sin, with supplications and prayers. All record and leach the practice qf sacrifice; and all, with different degrees of clear ness, give credence to a future state of existence. How is this remarkable harmony or agreement to bo explained ? Dr. Moffat’s explanation seems to be that a primitive revelation from Heaven was given to the human race, and that as each branch of the human family migrated to its ap pointed portion of the earth, it carried, at least, a portion of Divine truth with it, and that notwithstanding the nations have greatly corrupted this original revelation, still they have not lost all knowledge of its doctrines; but tbat important frag ments of it are sacredly cherished by all tlie worshippers of every country under the whole Heaven. This view of the case encourages some hope in behalf of tho heathen. Wo cannot tell how mauy, guidod by the lingering rays of that ce lestial light which whs originally diffused through the world, may emergo from the deep darkness of heathenism into the eternal brightness of tho beatific vision. Arc we not told that the men of Nineveh and the Queen of the ttouth shall rise up uud condemn on the last day those who fail to appreciate the brighter light, and to improve the richer privileges which belong to the present dispensation? The Railroads. A most interesting meeting of tho stockholders of tbe South Carolina Rail road was held io Charleston daring the past week, and the most important ques tion for their consideration was the ru mored lease of that road. Tho question was sprung by Mr. It. W. Ctbbcdge, who introduced a series of resolutions setting forth that it had been reported that an offer to leawj had been made to the road, and resolving that if an offer of five per cent, or more, be made, th« President and Directors l>e author zed to call a meeting of the stockholders, to consider suob offer. Hon. John II. JanicM, Mayor of At lanta, was present, aud made the follow ing speech on the resolutions of Mr. who I am. My name is John H. James, of Atlanta, Ua., banker. I run Janies’ bank. I have eighteen hundred shores in tlie South Carolina Railroud, and have no interest in any other road, except in a street railway in Atlanta. I am Mavor of Atlauta, but 1 am not here ns Mayor, but to look after the interests of Johu H. James. I want, a dividend on my Mock. The President and Directors bad done well to put lue road in so good u fix, but if a lease, payiug six or seven j»er oeu could be got for the road, it would be big thing. The lease could be pro eoted by the Directors in this city, and it would pay tlie stockholders something. And how could Charleston be damaged?— With a proper board of directors, it is impossible for the Georgia Cen tral road to hedge in Charleston or injure her. It is an important matter to the oity; and if the Georgia Central offet six or seven per oont on a lease, they ought to have the road, it is said they now control one-third of the South Carolina Railroad stock. It is worth but forty, and a lease guaranteed by the Cen tral Railroad would put tbe stook at 80 —a gain to the stockholders of two and a half million dollars. I have seen the sensation pieces in the papers, but these are for tho stockholders alone. One of the directors of the Georgia Central Road (Mr. Moses Taylor) is worth thirty millions of dollars, 1 and, if ho gets his back up, oan buv up the whole Booth Carolina Railroad, and every other road ho wants to. If, then, while you have the road, you can make a lease of it for six or seven per cent., it is more than we cAn get any other way—that or nothing. You can guard the lease so that it will work no injury to Charleston. It is one of the issues of the day. Meet it like men. I have no mor3 to say. The resolutions were laid on the table, with but two votes in their favor, those of Mr. Cabbedge and Mayor James. This was on Tuesday. On Wednesday many other speeches upon tho subject were made. Resolu tions were adopted in favor of resisting the proposed lease, and Mayor Jumes came up for a good deal of censure by the people and the press. But he stood his ground like a man and a good financier, and made them the following speech: The people of Charleston have miscon strued wlmt I saiu. I camo hero in the interest of no railroad. Atlanta is not opposed to Charleston. She gives tho Charleston route more business than she gives Savannah or Macon. But railroads ought to pay. They ought to pay divi dends. I don’t know Mr. Moses Taylor —never saw him. I repeated what was told me. I bought stock in tbe South Carolina Railroad because it can be made to pay. I saw there was tight up, and James could make something out of it. You said you were going to defend your selves against the Ring by buying up tbe stock. I warned you yesterday you would bo bought out Did you do it ? Why, this morning how much stock wuh offered along the streets ? I was offered four hundred shares. Now if you want to koep the road why don’t you buy that stook? What I buy 1 keep till I can get a profit. Then tho man who bids high est takes tho stock. I am for making money, and only spoke for James. The papers add that, when tho meet ing adjourned Mayor James gobbled up that four hundred shares that wero being hawked about tho street. ATLANTIC AND GULF RAILROAD. A meeting of tho stockholders of tbe ubovo named railroad was held in Savan nah last Wednesday. Hon.
