called to order and 11. G. William*, at pres-
cnt in charge of the Graugers’s warehouse
in this city, made an address of one hour
in length. Long its it wns, the people
listened with the deepest interest, for his
speech was full of hard common sense,
and gojd, homely advice, qualities too
scarce in public addresses not to he high
ly apprec ; ated when found.
COL. W. H. CHAMBERS
was to have been the orator of the day,
but did not reach the ground until nouu,
when he was heartily welcomed by his
hundreds of friends. Col. Chambers suc
ceeded Mr. Williams, but owing to tlio
lateness of the day, he did not speak at
length. What he did say, however, con
firmed his reputation as au ora'or. His
advice was genial as his presence, and if
the Georgia Patrons but follow the advice
of the Master of Alabama’s State Grange
their succe-s will bo assured.
OTHER SPEAKERS.
O. 1). Gorman, the well known editor
of the Tulbotton Standard, was intro
duced to the audience, but declined to
speak. Hon. W. I. Hudson made a short
address, treating his subject in that
peculiarly characteristic style for which
ho has made himself noted.
Major A. M. Allen, of Colutnbns,
dosed the oratorical exercises by a good,
sensible talk, after which Mr. Willis de
livered the benediction, and the large au
dience dispt rsed, highly pleased with the
day’s proceedings. I forgot to state that
Major Allen raised fifty dollars on the
ground for the purpose of paiutiug the
church, which is a new, fine building.
I reached home before dark, delighted
with the most delightfnl meeting.

Shepherd’s ring. A few months since
ho was sent to Alulmint as Inspector of
Customs, and advertised himself ns gov

bution of overflowed Imoon for Lee coun
ty, which co'inty is si mated as high as
any in Alabama. Hu has killed three men,
but none in battle. llis character and
reputation are in perfect accord with the
vast majority of white Radicals in the
South.
DEMOCRATS BURE OF SUCCESS.
In tho race two years ago Pelham was

A LI. QUIET K ILL 0(10 IX CUSTOM
HOUSE WAITING TO BE RK-
S TOR ED AND MAINTAIN
ED BY V. S. TROOPS.
Yesterday one of the most successful
open Grange mootings that has ever been
held in this part of Georgia occurred at
Pierce’s Chapel, on the line of Muscogee
and Harris counties. Muscogee Grango
ig one of the most prosperous in the State,
and its success is largely attributable to
the energy And intelligence of its Master
T. J. Watt. Early in the morning the
aoads leading to the chapel were crowded
t>y wagons and carriages, all filled with
happy faces bound for the scene of the
long-talked of pic nio.
The grounds about the chapel are shady,
dry and beautiful, and when I reached the
place about 10 a. M., I found scores of
vehioles already occupying the trees about
the chapel, and other scores pouring in.
There were many visitors from Columbus
—among diem prominent lawyers, doc
tors, divines and merchants ; and other
parts of the couutry were w’ell repre
sented.
THE MEETING.
After forming in the Grange building
adjacent to the chapel, Muscogee and
Columbus Granges entered the church
which was crowded with beau*
tiful women, and as intelligent a body of
farmers as I have seen for many a day
men to be proud of. The regular exer-
oises opened with prayer by the Rev. C.
C. Willis, of Bethel Church, and chap
lain of Muscogee Grange. After which
Mr. Watt delivered an inter
esting salutatory, setting forth the
object of the Granges, or Patrons
of Husbandry, and referring particularly
to the necessity for improved agriculture
aud a more intelligent system of manur
ing. Washington Poe, jr., delivered
an address of welcome replete with good
sentiment and bearing the evidence of
much ability.
DB. E. C. HOOD,
of Colnmbus Grange, then read an essay
on “fertilizers,” which was the great fea
ture of the morning programme. It
would be vain to attempt a synopsis of
this capita], woll-prepared and carefully
studied production. Being a scientific
subject, scientifically treated, it was ne
cessarily dry and uninteresting to many,
but I deem tho essay of so much impor
tance to the planters that, with your con
sent, I will publish it in full, Dr. Hood
having kindly consented to give mo the
manuscript.
A. R. CALHOUN,
proprietor of the Enquirer-Sun, was then
announced, and though claiming to he no
orator he spoke for thirty minutes in his
blent, plain way about the necessities of
the South, and particularly of the planter.
He aimed to show what the South was be
fore the war, what she has been since,
and reasons from what he considered the
errors of the present he tried to point out
the road to a certain success.
DINNER.
After Calhoun’s speech a recess of two
hours was announced, and during that
time the hundreds of people present —and
never was there a pleasanter gathering-
assembled about the well-laden tables
erected in tho roar of the church. I
have been to many picnics and
barbecues of late, but the “feed here wus
just a little ahead of anything I have seen
for years. The veriest dyspeptic would
have been tempted to transgress the laws
of health ; but, judging from the appetites
of those assembled, there was not one
individual in the assembly troubled
with indigestion. I naw scores of
candidates, aud they were the most
polite, genial crowd of fellows I
«ver saw. They looked like “those
who loved their fellow men." They
led me to think they were disap
pointed because there were not more bn-
hies there to kiss. They would have
watered and hitched up every man’s
horse on the plaoe if he would let them.
I hope they will all be elected , and, like a
man who is governed by policy, I promi-
ntd tove to for every one of them.

GOV. Penn’s PROCLAMATION TO LOUISIAN
IANS.
Tho following is the text of Gov. Peim’i
proclamation to the peop'e:
To the Purple of fxmisiana /—For two
years you have borne, with patience aud
fortitude, a great wrong. Through fraud
aud violence the government of your
choice bus been overthrown, and its pow
er usurped. Protest after protest, appeal
after appeal, to the President of the
Uuited States and to Congress have failed
to give you tho relief which yon had
right under the constitution to demand
The wrong has not been repaired. On
the contrary, through the instrumentality
of partisan judges, you are debarred
from all legal remedy. Day by day tax
ation has been increasing, with costs and
penalties amounting to the confiscation of
your property, your substance squau
ilercd, you credit ruined, resulting
in f.iilure aud bankruptcy of your
valued institutions. The right of suffer
age is virtually taken from you by the en
actment of skillfully devised registration
aud election laws. The judicial branch
of your government has been stricken
down by tbe conversion of the legal ]>o**e
comitutiiH of tbe sheriff to th® use of tbe
usurper, for tho purpose of defeating the
decrees of the courts, his defiance of law
leading him to use the very force for tho
arrest of the sheriff while engaged in the
execution of process of the court. To
these inay be added a corrupt and vicious
Legislature, conceiving laws in violation
of tbe constitution for the purpose of
guarding and perpetuating their usurped
authority. A Metropolitan police, paid
by t he city, nuder control of the usurper,
quarters upon you to overawe and keep
you in subjection. Every public right
has been denied, and, as if to goad you to
desperation, private arms are seized and
individuals arrosted. To such extremities
are you driven that manhood revolts at
further submission.
Constrained from a sense of duty, as
tho legally elected Lieutenant-Governor
of the State, acting Governor in tho ah-
sonco of Gov. McEonery, I do issue this
my proclamation, calling upon tbe militia
of the State, embracing all persons be
tween the ages of 18 aud 45 years, with
out regard to color or previous condition,
to arm and assemble uuder their respee
tivo officers for the purpose of driviug the
usurpers from power.
Given under my hand and seal, this
