TUESDAY MORNING, JULY 27, I860.
Dralh of James R. BaUx. ,
Wo nre jiaintvl to loam that James R. Batts,
Esq., died at hi* residence in this city yesterday,
after a fear hones' serere illness of M&nzR cholic.
Mr. Batts was an old resident of Macon, hat a
ns tiro of one of the New England States. Ho
was well known for many years as Snrreyor
General of Georgia. lie was a man of very ac
tive, original mind and considerable inventive
power. Dnring the war, in an expedition to
the Florida coast, to establish a fishery business,
be fell into tho hands of the Federal cruisers,
and fora long time was a prisoner in Fort La
fayette. At the time of his death he was prob
ably one of the largest land owners in tho State,
and wo hope bis landed property will afford a
sufficient provision for tho family he hasleft be
hind him, who will receive tho warmest sympa
thies of tho community. Mr. Butts must have
lived nearly tho allotted time of three scoro and
ten. . i . 1
Virginia.
In another placo we copy from the New York
Tribune an emphatic declaration that tho Vir
ginia election, and tho result, cannot and shall
not bo interfered with.
The last number of tho Independent has a
manifesto from Senator Ilenry Wilson, of Mas
sachusetts,^ which he charges tho responsibility
of tho Radical fiasco in Virginia to the ambi
tion of WoUs and his company to make tho
party “conveniently mruiU." They refused and
rojected all of Wilson's counsel for conciliation,
out of tho merest selfishness, given at a time
when Wilson says:
“I believed then, and I l>elievo now, that
there was a time when a liberal, just and un
selfish policy wouldhavo modo Virginia a strong
loyal and Republican State,"
In no part of thy) letter docs .Wilson drop a
hint or suggestion that tho mischief can or will
bo repaired by any intervention of Congress to
defoat the will of tho people, as expressed at tho
polls.
We judge, then, Forney’s atiompt to bring
Up his party to tho “aefenneed” ground ho
takes will bo a signal fafloro.
Tu ruing White.
Our exchanges are generally copying an ac
count of a “fotish and Obi negro" In Detroit,
who ha> a white spot upon him resembling in
shape the human hand. We have repeatedly
oneonnterod that phenomenon, of a spotted no-
gro, and usually these white spots indicato dis
ease. Thoro is, howovor, in Vinoville, a negro
woman, perhaps between fifty and sixty years
years of ago, who has such spots on her hands,
gradually enlarging from year to yoar, and wo
are informed there are other patchos os large as
the hnman hand on other parts of her person,
and yet tho tho skin upon theso white spots ap
pears as hoaltby and as delicate as that of any
white man. The poor creature Is much dis
tressed about “turning white," and, indeed, it
might bo considered a political misfortuno in
theso times. Wo don’t know hut sho may come
nnder the civil rights hill for distinctions in col
or—as thoy are very marked.
Tl»© Nlate Fair.
Tho Secretary, in his communication, sub
mitted in our last, thinks that twolvo thousand
people will be in attendance on the Btato Fair,
in this city, next November. Wo are satisfied,
from all tho Information wo receive, that tho at
tendance will be largo, and tho exhibition on a
scalo of magniludo hitherto unrivalled in this
State. Wo agree with tho Secretary that it fa a
problem to which the people of Macon shonld
earnestly address themselves, how this Urge at
tendance shall be comfortably honsod and pro
vided for. Tho reputation of the city fa in.
volvcd. It is of vast interest to ns in every
shape that this event should pass off with ecUt,
and loaye a favorable impression on tho mind
of eroty attendant.
Srcaxmo with Tonodxs.—Our learned brother
of the Savannah Nows, besides being a re
nowned author, a philosopher, pnndit and clover
man generally, tanst be a linguist of extraordi
nary accomplishments. In his last ho tells an
anoedoto at length, in which the catastropho is
set forth os follows :
Instantly a panio prevailed. From every
threat burst tho wild cry: , . J
“CkOoeko! Cktioehneadka ha jot yy*h!
yah! Holateamu/ lBopui «l#r
*' And in tho wildest tumult they flod from tho
plaoo of their revels, terror-stricken at what
they bejiovod to bo tho spirit of tho great war
rior by whom thoy had so often boon defeated
in battle.
Now, friend Nows, tho Scripture saith “it is
a good thing to speak with tongues,” lint tho
interpretation thereof is hotter. That joke is
lost to us for want of tho interpretation. Wo
suspend our faugh till the next issno of tho
Nows comes to hand.
Sexsidlj: ir Thus.—Tho Lynchburg (Vo.)
News says: “Wo loam from an nuthoritative
Bonreo that Gov. Walker has invited a number
of the most prominent Virginians, including
Gon. U. E. Leo, to meet him in consultation
upon affairs of interest to tho State, at tho
Montgomery White Sulphur Springs. Tho moot
ing will tako placo at on early day after Gov,
Walker’s return from New York, which will bo
definitely fixed upon hereafter.”
PoeT-Omcx Rcjcoes.—A report was in circu
lation all over town yesterday, that Marshall
do Graffenreid, Esq., had been appointed Post-
Master of Macon; but, on investigation, we
ascertained that there was probably no author!
ty for tho statement. . Ttr I
Russ.—Sunday was signalized by a steady,
paltering rain, of six or eight hours. We think
it was what is termed‘‘a general rain." Yes
terday was showery. It rained all day in Atnox-
iens yesterday.
A TiiTTBwn son of Rev. Dr. Beecher, on be
ing ordained, was solemnly charged thus:
charge you never to forget that you are the son
of your father, the grandson of yottr grandfath
er, and tho nephew of your undo." How about
his aunt Harriet ?—Columbus Sun.
That telegram abont the Postmaster-General's
tumbling out of his chair and breaking his arm
is probably susceptible of explanation, but it
wears n jolly aspect. —.
Horn Masupaoioet in Coechbus.—The Sun
says tho Muscogee machine ropo works in that
city tarn out 1800 pcands of handsome and
durable ropo per day.
The official vote of Virginia was: Walker,
U’.»,. r >3.>; Wells, 101,204.. Walker's majority,
18,331.
Feom Caufoesia. —■ The recent Republican
State Convention of California resolved that the
adoption of tho fifteenth amendment should bo
followed by universal amnesty and suffrage.
Paeeajid and not Pabi.an.—The Republican
says the new town on Brunswick Bay is Parfand
and not Parian or Parleyvoo.
Florida.—The Tallahassee Sentinel, of the
24th, speaks well of the crops and makes no
mention of caterpillar.
The Charleston papers are lively with the
carpet-bag assault on the Custom-house.
The Pennsylvania Election.
Whether or no the hopes of the Democracy of
Pennsylvania shall be realized in the election of
Jadge Packer, it is quite clear that the Northern
Radicals are much alarmed abont tho situation
in that State. Packer is a nun of large per
sonal popularity. A man who, by tho force of
his own talents and industry, has risen from the
position of a friendless child of poverty to the
possession of vast personal wealth and influence
—who has acqnircd his fortune in honest enter
prise, and has used it Iii>erally for benevolent
and praiseworthy objects, ne is, in a word, so
□□assailable in every point of view, that the
Democratic papers meet Radical detraction at
every turn by quoting laudations of Judge
Packer from opposition journals, volunteered
before he was in tho field of politics.
Such vast political importance, however, is
attached to tho result in Pennsylvania that all
tho prominent outside Radical organs have
thrown their coats off, and are pitching into tho
canvass. Tho Now York Times, among tho
test, wo seo, borrows the editorial assault of the
Savannah ~ Republican on tho Pennsylvania
Democrats as the text for a heavy attack on
Packer, and tho Pennsylvania Democracy. In
an article designed to show that tho Sonth had
repudiated the Northern Democracy, tho Times
says:
If tho Democracy might reasonably claim a
foothold in that section, it would snrely be in
Georgia. There, if anywhere, tho Democrats
have power, as the State knows to its cost Yet
the prevailing opinion, even in quarters inimi
cal to tho principles and objects of tho Repub
lican party, fa decidedly adverse to tho Demo
crats, tboir leaders and their tactics. “How
ever strong may be many of th. ir claims upon
us,” remarks tho loading journal of Savannah,
“ tho Sonth would be foolish to pin her faith to
the skirts of any srifch party.” Why ? “ They
cannot tako care of themselves at home," is the
answer, “much loss should they bo trusted with
tho vast interest wo havo at stake.” This is ob
vious nn/I positive enough. But our Savannah
contemporary, not satisfied with a general repu
diation of Democratic overtures, undertakes to
larticularizo with an emphasis which Messrs.
?»cker i Co. will not consider complimentary.
These are its words:
I [Here tho Times quotes from an article we
havo already printed, and proceeds to say:] —j
Hard words, theso, for tho Democracy! “Tho
party appears to havo lost its brains.” “Thoy
appear incapable of learning anything from the
past.” “They must go off into n wild gooso
chaso after a Copperhead nominee." Tim say
ings are severe becanso true. They are espe
cially sovore beeensd omanaling from a source
whoso natural affiliation is with tho party thus
roundly condemned. „■ ,
Wo snbmit to our friend of tho Republican,
if ho has no particular interest in Geary, and the
Pennsylvania Radicals, to “hold his horses.*
However unwise ho may think tho Northern
Democrats to bo, it would certainly bo a God
send to the cause of ordorand good government
in tho Sonth, and tho country, if tho rampant
Radicalism of tho day could be checked.
How to Get Kid of Nut Grass.
L. 8., care of E. F. Clayton & Co., Augusta,
proposes for 26 cents and stamp enclosed—pro
ceeds to bo tnmed ovor to tho poor of Augusta
—to giye tho world a simple plan for getting
rid of nnt grass. As we nover heard of any
other plan than to dig U up, we shall anxiously
wait Iris information which is to bo imparted
(not on tho 1st of April next,) bnt on tho 1st of
next January.
The nut grass question is a serious matter in
this part of Bibb, and will be still more so unless
people are more earnest and careful in extermi
nating this grass. The city common or race
track (town on tho river bank is one great mat
of it—|s horrid reservoir from whence cattle and
hogs will carry it to all parts of tho town. We
notice some people, after digging it np on their
premises, throw it over into the streets and gul
lies from whence it fa washed by the rains and
transplanted in all directions. This it cruet.—
One might almost as well scatter the small pox
about.
I Every stalk of this grass shonld be exposed
to fire until the germinating principlo fa de
stroyed. It has almost as many lives as a cat
and onee fairly established on land, it will cost
as much to exterminate it as the land is worth,
unless this 25 cent man has somo new wrinklo
to do tho work by wholesale. We consider farm
land whore nnt grass has taken possession en
tirely worthless, for agricultural purposes. ■■
Let all who find this pest on their premises be
admonished to give it no rest. .Attack it dili
gently and carefully—securing every nnt and
root of this grass as yon go, and treating it ns it
fa—as a dreadful enemy to be combatted prompt
ly, resolutely and intelligently. To tnm np
your ground and dig hare and thoro gathering
part of the roots and leaving others buried deep
er in tho soil, fa only adding fuel to tho fire and
vastly increasing tho difficulties of tho situation.
Fruit.
A man who has plenty of fine grapes, of half
a dozen varieties—pears, of half a score—ap
ples, figs and poaches, of tho best—and much of
each ready to pluck—is comfortably off for
fruit, and that is tho case of our neighbor, Gus-
t in. Somo of his pear trees are a curiosity to
thoso who do not believe that tho most valnablo
French and American varieties will attain per
fection in Georgia. Wo counted twelve that
would weigh from eight to ton ounces cadi, on
a single branch, within the space of a foot. His
grape vines are still loaded' with fruit, bnt ho
has been tho sport and prey of tho sons of Ham,
in respect to a largo part of his peach, pear and
applo crop. Thoy storm tho fences whilo tho
gardener is asleep, and carry off tho spoils by
buahofa. It is some consolation to people too
lazy and inattentivo to raiso such fruit, that, at
least, thoy have not to endure the mortification
of seeing their trees abused, and their fruit
stolen by Uicso sable rascals, and know there is
no help for it.
Mr. G. has a splendid little sample of cotton
in his garden, which must be seen to be appre
ciated; but he has also a brag acre, which, he
says, is better, and which wo havo promised to
look at the first leisure hour.
The Newspaper Cash System.
From the LaGrange Reporter.
A long and vexed experience has taught us
the unquestionable truth of the remarks of the
New York Herald, on a Press Convention in
Wisconsin to consider the establishment of a
general newspaper system of cash payments.—
The Herald says:
It is the only proper way. Most of our coun
try newspapers Eve half starved on the credit
system, when they might get fat and saucy on
tho cadi system. Of all things in the world,
newspapers call for cash system, and it is always
the best for buyer and seiler. “Mr. Speaker, - ’
once said John Randolph, “I havo found tho
philosopher's stone. Itis pay as you go, sir, and
be paid as you go.”
It is to meet this question, among others, that
a convention of tho press is so mnek needed. A
State Press Association wo a Id do mnch to ad
vance the interests of journalism in Georgia;
yot there is but a weak, faint response to the
proposition for one. We have repeatedly
brought ibis subject to the attention of tho
Georgia press within tho fast twelve months. A
fow only havo even noticed it—not sufficient to
givo the proposition any thing liko an impetus.
Whether this indifference is tho result of op
position or of other absorbing questions of tbo
day we wEl not pretend to say; bnt will again
put the proposition in a definite shape as it has
been suggested that wo havo as much right to
do so as anybody. Wo, therefore, suggest that
a convention of tho press of Georgia be hold at
Macon, first Wednesday in September, for tho
purpose of forming a State Press Association.
Wo thus put tho proposition in tangible shape
to the press. Let us see how many of the press
will respond. Can’t wo hare a full turn ont ?—
Let us inaugurate a now and more prosperous
area in Georgia journalism. Let ns have a bet
ter understanding with each other and try to
make the publishing business more remunera
tive by concert of action and conduct.
Will tho press respond ? Wo shall “wait with
timely patience” to seo what they say.
We entirely agreo with the Reporter as to tho
transcendent importance of tho cash system in
its application to newspaper subscriptions, at
least; and the press, whether weokly or doily,
can do no greater service to itself than by estab
lishing an inexorablo rule of payment in ad
vance. If onr Georgia contemporaries agrep
with tho suggestions of tho Reporter, the Tele-
grath will be happy in welcoming them to tho
city, and wo havo no doubt Macon will display
her accustomed Eborality in their reception and
entertainment.

From Docatnr County.
A note to the Editors, dated tho 23d, says
they are having fino reins in Decatur, and crops
both of corn and cotton are good. So moto it
bo.
Tho Bainbridgo Argus, of Saturday, 24th,
in an orticlo which must have been penned pri
or to tho date of onr correspondent’s note, com
plains of drought in some neighboorhoods. The
planters had commenced fodder-pulling, and it
would be continued this week. Tho Argus
says! i ! "■ -
The com crop, therefore, in this region; is
now made. It is generally good; bnt the drought
in some neighborhoods has cut tho yield off
jrcatly. Tho rain, for tho past threo weeks,
las been partial hereabouts. Some planters
have had too much rein, while others havo had
almost none at all. Both of them havo suffered.
The guanoed cotton, in somo places fa now
suffering from tho effects of drought. No cater-
nillar. as vet. to do anv damage. Many havo
ilnished laying by their cotton. Open bolls will
be quite common within the next few days.
Tho fruit crop, in this section, with but fow
exceptions, so far as our observation extends,
i* very sorry. In a few localities poaches and
applos are good, huh we are disposed to think
theso constitute an exception to the general
mlo. The cold weather, in tho spring had the
effect to prodaco an unhealthy growth, especial
ly in the low lands.
The Extreme Heat.—Several fino horses, in
this city, dnring tho past weok havo sneenmbod
to tho excessive heat Some have died, and
others been disabled for a time, the result of in
considerate driving. Persons using horses in
such weather as wo now havo, should be exceed
ing moderate in either driving or riding.
Con. John Sceetex, passed through Bain
bridgo yesterday morning, on his return from
Colombia, Ala. He gives a most flattering ac
count of the interest felt in the Southeastern
Alabama Railroad by tho entire pooplo of that
section, many of whom have subscribed liberally.
The Tribnne upon Congressional
Nullification of Virginia.
Tho New York Tribune of tho 21st declares
that Congress cannot interfere to dofeat the re
sult in Virginia. That paper says:
Our “Republican” seems to think it the duty
of Congress to defy tho vote of the pooplo of
Virginia, and keep the minority in power through
military mlo or otherwise. Two objections will
disposoof that programme: 1. It will not be
dono ; 2. It can’t bo done. It is not possible to
carry out such a programme. It lias signally
failed in Virginia; it will signally fail when
submitted to tho verdict of the wholo pooplo.
Tho Republicans of tho loyal States might
rifico themselves to it, bnt to no purpose. Tho
people must rule, under constitutional guaran
ties that secure all rights to all, and as well in
the South ns in the North.
Tho larger number of tho Virginia Republi
cans havo blundered in trying to secure their
own ascendancy by a permanent and wholesale
proscription of their adversaries. That blun
der has cost them a stunning defeat Bnt
though stunned, thoy must not bo stupefied.
They must profit by the lesson, and henceforth
stand fast by tho principlo that the whole peo
ple must vote and tho majority must rule.

T HE attention of Housekeepers and others is called
to the indispensable article known by the above
name. Thi« Clothes Linou guaranteed not to cor-
rodeor rust, or in anyway to injure clothes hung
upon it; and if not fonnd to be as represented the
money will be refunded. Tbo following are somo of
tho advantages of this Clothe* Line Wire:
By actual experience itis found to be by far the
chetpfst Clothes Line, besides its great convenience,
a rope line costs about one cent per foot, while this
costs only three cents. This will last a life time: a
rope line will last but a short time, even with tho
very best of care. Ten times the price of tho white
wire is certainly cheaper than a rope line.
