The recent storm has undoubtedly beaten out a groat deal of cotton and aa wo feel an interest, a groat interest, in the prosperity of the agriculturalist, we say “by no means, let a pound of dam aged or dirty cotton be packod with tho good staple." We have been in conver- aation with several cotton dealers and they say that if they find a bale packed with twenty-five pounda of dirty or bad cotton and the remainder good, they will pay for the whole at the rate of the damaged cot ton. The farmers should take advantage of this and aave themselves by not mix ing the “tares with tho wheat." Let tho different glades or classes be packed sep arately and save money. Prohabte Increase o/ Census. Jadge Brooks issued seven marriage lioensos yesterday, one white and six colored. This is ten dollars for the “interior," or private fund. The Judge ought to close all other departments of his office, ss the marrying season has opened and advertise “marriage licennen are now being issued for the fall and winter sea sons, cheap at clnb rates, Ac.” It’s a bonanza at this time ofthe year. Scarlet Fever. One new caeo of scarlet fever is report ed in the family of Mr. Ed. McEacberen, in the npper portion of the city. The first case, a little son of this gentleman, is fast recovering. Another case in War- moeksville, in the family of Mr. Batast*"* is also getting well. These are abont the only oases in the city, bnt wo learn of one on the plantation of Major Moroh, four miles bolow the city. We presume that the disease is not of a violent type, as no one has been thought dangerously ill. Cslerpillart tn Rntiell County.

A NEW DEPARTURE—IMPROVEMENT ON TI1E OID ORDER. In tho stringent state of tho times, Crawford has sot a worthy example in commencing a series of now ontorprisos, by establishing a number of schools hitherto unknown to the public. Other cities situatod under similar circumstan ces may profit by imitating tho example of tho nnoiont and illustrious city; for ex ample— Colonol J. M. T. and Major A. L. F. propose to toach a plan by which the present inconvenient sizo of bar glasses may l>e obviated by wrapping tho fingera around tho top of tho glass so ns to ob tain a full sized drink out of a small glass. J. W. 1\ proposes to toach a cussing school, by which cussaing can bo grace fully and scientifically done. Tuition one botth of whiskey each day, in order that the teacher nmy be brought up to tho cussing point. Colonol R. P. B. proposes to toach a lazy school, whoro by a gentleman with tho least exertions, can koop tho tlios and gnats out of his mouth, during a hot suiumor day. Captain J. M. F. will toach tho science by which hogs’ throats may bo out in September, and then die at the proper killing time—Christmas. The Hon. J. H. T., ono of the aldermon of tho ancient city, proposes to give les sons on the violiu, and whereby all pupils, in throe months time, will be warranted to perform, with or without, strings, on the back of the iustrnmont as well as they can on tho front. J. A. P., M. D., F. R. S., proposes to open a whistling school, whereby he will soientifioully toach each student to furnish iwu green persimmons for puokenng purposes. Hon. D. D.

J., connected with the postoffiee department, has been, for some time, pegging for the public, but, for the fu tore, will do his own pegging, and will give notioe that his pegging awl is getting very dull. Prof. Samuel C., a reoeut resident of the ancient city, proposes to teach vocal music, and guarantees that after proper instruction, any pupil will be able to dis tinguish between good singing and the sawing of a gourd. Prof. T. W. B. proposes to teach you the Terpsichorian art, and to neatly trip it as you go on the light fantastic toe. There is considerable talk at this time of a uarrow gnage railroad from this point to the city of Columbus, aud the people generally are alive to the establishment of a factory, which they expect to have in operation as soon as the neoesaary funds are subscribed.

Cummings, Last night about one hundred of tho citizens of this place met in the Superior Court room to determine upon a plan whereby the North and Houth railroad may be oxtended. On motion of Captain C. A. Redd, T. J. Nuckolls, Mayor pro tern., took the chair in place of Mayor iirannon, who called the meetiDg and who wan absent from the city. On motion of Col. F. O. Wilkins, the Chair appointed T. D. Huff, Secretary. Tho Chair then stated the object of the meeting, after which MAJOR MOSES, who purchased the road for the Columbus A Atlanta Air Line, said : He was not the purchaser of the road himself, but would have been had he not been “short.’ The citizens of Colnmhns, on the day of the sale, thought it very important, and felt very mnoh concerned, that this place should control the road. Ho after con versing with many of them he asked the Mayor if the oity had decided npon a plan for the purchase, and he was informed in the negative. As the road was bought it ^ wim is now necessary to know abont the f jj Cowsert building or extending of it. He informed - -- - the Governor, who sent for him on the day that the sale was made, that reaources oonld be obtaine d to build the road, if not hero alone, abroad, and this was sat isfactory to him. He then wrote to every corporation who might feel an interest in the road to get assistance, but had no saccess. He had received a letter from a Northern gentleman who has $180,000 to invest and who might propose to take hold of the enter prise, but be hadn’t much faith in that. Since the Governor’s visit here be Ctbe Governor) had written him to know what was being done and that step must be taken. He desired to know what the meeting would do, as he did not wish to trespass upon the Governor’s indulgence. The two things to oonsider were, first, could the city meet the obligation ? and second, ought she to do it ? Is this rail road important to Columbus, and is it of great interest that the oity should not allow the Central Railroad to havo it? Columbus should do everything possible to prevont tho Central road from secur ing a monopoly, though he had no preju dice against that corporation. It would be better not to have tho road at all, or extend it, than to lot the Central Company have it and run it against tho interest of this place. Tb* city should institute a competition with the Centrul and thereby necessitate ohoap freights. If we carry tho road above tho mountains it will be extended to any desired distance by other resources immediately. Shall tho road bo purchased by individual sub soription, or by the city? Tho latter plan would be tho better and tho falror, although it might bo said that tho city is in debt, for then overyono would havo to bear tho burden, so to apeak, according as lie or sho would be benefittod. He proposed that tho meeting would suggest to Counoil to adopt something like tho following resolutions, which ho had drawn up: Resolved, as tho senso of this meeting, First—That the City Council pass a res olution to purchase tho North A Houth Railroad at the anm of $40,500, the amount bid by the Air Lino Railroad Company. Second—That they further reaolve to iasue those bonds payable in one, two and threo years, with interest at seven per cent., $20,000, to be paid annually, and that a special tax be levied for tho pay ment of principal and interest, and for which the oity shall receive 600 shares of stock in the N. A H. R. R. Third—That said bonds shall not be sold at less than 90 oents on tho dollar, and tho bonds thereof be exclusively ap plied to the payment of said bonds and the interest thereon and the repairs and extension of the North A Houth Railroad. Fourth—That certificates be isaaod to each tax payor for the aid of this special tax collected from snob tax-payer and that whenover $100 of such certificates shall be presented to tho Mayor and Council tho same shall be returned by the issne of one sharo of stock in said rail road. Fifth—That the city of Columbus Bhall always be entitled to vote on COO shares, bnt shall not draw anv dividend theron after it is reimbursed by taxation for the principal and interest of the bonda issued. Sixth—That after the passage of those resolutions they shall be submitted to the voters of Columbus for ratification accord ing to law, and if ratified, the said resolu tion ahall be again passed by Council and the bonds isaued for the purposes afore said. BON. JOHN PEABODY said that he agreed with Major Moses fully, hut he did not think, if Council should adopt such a sot of resolutions, that they would be ratified by a two-thirds vote of the city. He suggested that the city take the bid aud pay for it in her bonds bearing 6 per cent, interest at par. These bonds would bear the same interest as those issued by the State in payment of the endorsed bonds, and whilst the in terest is paid, the bonds would be worth as much to the State ss the oaab. COL. MUSTIAM said that the purohase in behalf of the Air Line was bona fide, and if something was not done he would sell the road to some party or company. Mr. Peabody said that he did not un derstand the transaction to be bona fide. Major Moses said that it was useless to discuss that matter. CAPTAIN C. k. REDD Moved that the Chair appoint a commit tee of three, who, with himself, would HARRIS BOUNTY ITEMS. Condensed from the Journal.J Rev. Dr. Pierce will deliver a lecture on Methodism at the church in Hamilton to-day aud preach in that churoh to-mor row. The Doctor states that he wishes to address every one in and out of Hamilton, who feels an interest in the subject. He is on a »»t to his grand-children, the Misses Hcbloys. He is ninoty-three years of ago and travels alono wherever he wishes to go. Rev. A. B. Campbell has spent several days in Hamilton aud daring the time preached every day and night at the Baptist Chnrch. He is one of the best preachers in this section and the people of Hamilton were most favorably im pressed with him and will always be glad to hear him and to extend to him their hospitality. Rev. H. W. Bartley, a Baptist minister of Harris, has been engaged in a series of revival meetings at the various churches to which he preaches, all of which result ed in the conversion and baptism of many. At Finey Grove chnrch he bap** tized seventeen ; at Union church, four miles above Whitesville, five; at Bethle hem two, and liav.
