This event was to have come off on Tuesday
last. Prominent officers on both sides were in
vited. For good reasons the principal Southern
Generals could not be present. This affair, in
a loiter from New York to the Charleston Couri
er was .said to have been gotten up by specula
tors on one side, and the Republicans, who in
tended to help Geary's election for Governor of
Pennsylvania, by making a great hero of him
in connection with this historical battlefield.—
Our dispatches of yesterday report it a failure.
We are gratified to see that the letters received
from the Northern Generals deplored the move
ment as calculated to re-open the half-healed
sectional wounds.
This is to their credit. It is unfortunate that
not only Generals of the Federal army but all
others in the North do not come to the conclu
sion to leave off everything in the way of de
monstrations and occasions which are calculated
to keep alive the thoughts so natural to par
ties on both sides. We lovo to see people North
as well as South engaged in such noble deeds as
decorations of graves of the bravo departed and
other acts which tend to show an appreciation
of that heroism which impelled a sacrifice of
life for the honor and glory of one’s people.
But those reunions and scenes, finch as this
at Gettysburg was designed to be, which can on
ly serve to fan into a flame once more those
slumbering embers of hatred in the breasts of
persons North'and South, should be discouraged.
If wo are to live in ono government and as one
pooplo let us endeavor to forget and foigivo;
otherwise it is impossible to be harmonious. A
truthful history of Iho war—its battle-fields, its
heroes, its victories and its dofeats, its causes
and its results can and will bo written in the fu
ture. Not now.
Homicide in Hancock.—Mr. Posey, of Han
cock county, shot and killed a negro man last
week, who had armed himself with a pistol and
approachod Mr. Posey’s residence for the pur
pose of killing him. Mr. P., when the negro
had stated the object of his visit, ran into the
house and got his gun, and coming to the door
fired upon the negro, tho negro at the samo
timo returning tho fire. Mr. P.’s shot took ef
fect and killed tho negro. The sons of the ne
gro who hnd attended their father in his mur
derous mission, then fired upon Mr. P. wound
ing him severely near the kidneys, and also
wounding a little child in tho thigh, who was
behind him in the house.
Tho ooroncr’s jury acquitted Mr. P. of nil
hlAme in the matter.
Putnam County.—Planters’ Club—At their
last monthly meeting, 2lst inst, the President
was authorized to appoint ten delegates to rep
resent tho Club at tho State Fair. n. D. Ca
pers was elected Secretary in tho place of W. W.
Turner, resigned. They will hereafter devote
themselves to n freo interchange of opinions on
subjects of general interest. H. D. Capers, N.
S. Walker and A. S. Reid, Jr., wore appointed
a committee to draft a memorial to the Georgia
Legislature on the fenco laws, which report is
to bo the subject of discussion at tho next meet
ing of tho Clnb.
A dispatch from Philadelphia dated 24th inst.,
nays: “Not a drop of rain has fallen hero sinco
August 1th, tho night of tho great whisky fire,
nor have any accounts of rain b$en received
from tho interior, except of a short thunder
storm on Saturday last, about thirty minutes,
up tho Schuylkill. All reports ngreo as to tho
great damago to corn from tho drought in this
State.”
A subscriber in lower Georgia writes: 44 A
man who is not willing to pay three dollars for
tho Telegraph should not read it I hope to
get yon many more subscribers this full and
winter, for I think your paper should be in all
families.”
Thank you, friend. Let all work as you and
many others do for ns, and we will be all the
better able to benefit our State, which is tho
great desire of our hearts.
What Comes of tiie President Not Being at
Home.—Governor Sent or and party, from Nash
ville, who came to Washington yesterday to pay
their respects, and learn (wo suppose) what he
thinks of them, had actually to go northward in
pursuit of him. Yv'o trust their interview may
bo satisfactory nnd agreeable, after so much
trouble.
The Eatonton Press and Messenger reports
late corn gone up, but tho wholo yield of corn
for Putnam is 2."> per cent, more than last year.
Severe wind on Monday—slight showers. Cotton
much damaged by drought—loss probably one-
fourth of tho cotton crop by hot weather.
Cotton is opening rapidly everywhere, and
prematurely. Receipts will bo heavy, wo ap
prehend, for awhile; but tho bulk of tho crop
will probably be in market by December first.
What a falling off from our glorious expecta
tions !
A gentleman writes ns from Camilla, Mitch
ell county, August 20th : “Wo arc having very
dry, hot weather at present. Cotton, potatoes,
etc., suffering—cotton shedding badly from dry
weather and rust. Caterpillars doing but little
harm.” _
John Coyode, Chairman of the Republican
State Central Committee of Pennsylvania, is
quite hopeful of Geary's election, though he
says the job will be a big one, owing to a variety
of unfavorable circumstances.
A gextlemin from Jones county who has ex
amined the cotton fields from Milledgeville to
this city, thinks two bales to the hand is more,
perhaps, than will be made.
Oub dispatches state that Secretary Bout-
well and General Butler will visit our city dur
ing the ooming fair.
One thousand five hundred million gallons of
water were pumped from the rivers for the use
of Philadelphia last month.
Two bales of new cotton—the first of the
season—were received in Sandersville on Satur
day last, from the plantation of Maj. Harris
Brantley. It classed Liverpool middling and
weighed .">27 and 4(>8 ; valued at JO cents in this
market, shipped to Messrs. N. A. Hardee’s Sons
A Co., Savannah. In picking out this cotton
Robert McNeil, freedman, picked on Wednes
day last—the first day he had picked this year—
246 pounds.
Wo hear of a number of bales shipped within
the last few days, that were not brought to town.
Planters tell us that the seed cotton is unusually
light. But very few calculate on more *.Kaw a
half crop. We have no rain of consequence
yet The earth is parched and nothing can grow.
Large oaks and pines are dying in the forest,
causing the woods in some places to present the
appearance of the fall of the year.—Central
Georgian, 25th.
On Saturday last a bill was filed in ITilton Su
perior Court, by H. P. Farrow Attorney General,
on the part of Governor Bullock vs. N. L. An-
gier, State Treasurer, for $">00, received as in-
terest on State funds deposited in bank.

CLOSE OF FBESS COVTEKTIOX A SUFFKE—AFFAIRS
IN ATLANTA—START NORTHWARD.
Atlanta, Wednesday morning, 1
August 25, 18G9. )
Tho Press Convention last night had a lively
session, and an earnest discussion over “adver
tising rates, which was more interesting to the
profession than to (he public. After adjourn
ment a collation was spread in the Council
Chamber, by order of the Mayor and Council
in which the royal family of Gold Seals and
Green Seals, and that stnrdy bnrgher, H. Piper
Hcidsick. were liberally represented. As the
night was very warm—the writer had boon
withont sleep two days, and has, moreover, I
passed that ago in which late snppers sit lightly
on the stomach, the craft will hold him excused
—that, rather than mar good fellowship by a
timid and hesitating example, he incontinently
vamosed.
But a noble rally was effected under the lead
of the handsome member from the Southwest
who, as Chairman on the Constitution, was pro
perly put in charge of proceedings. Maj or Hul
sey opened the ball with a neat and appropriate
speech, and tho last note caught by tho ears of
the “flying squadron" was the sound of merry
voices and popping corks, which promised a
good time generally.
Atlrnta has behaved very handsomely and
generously to the press, and every member will
take away the most pleasant memories of tho
place and people. Tho Mayor, who looks vcTy I
young to carry snch a weight of civic honors, is '
a gentleman of fine person and manners and a
fair representative of the young and enterpris
ing spirit which pervades and governs this rising
city. Its growth and development sinco its
wicked and needless destruction by Sherman in
18G4, aro nncxampled. The town covers a largo I
area and boasts of thirty or forty thousand peo
ple, and a rapidity of progress which may be I
exemplified by the fact that nearly twelve hun
dred honses are in conrse of construction at this
moment. Chicago horself never made greater
speed than that; and all tho money which is
now being made in Atlanta—all tho personal
thrift in existence here just now, is duo simply
to tho overflowing confidence of her people in
the glorious destiny which awaits them. Trade
itself is overdone, and has not yet found time
to settle down into smooth and natural channels.
It will do that by and by. The city is yet one
of magnificent distances, but in five years moro
it will be compacted, improved and beautified to
a marvellous degree.
This morning we start out on the State Hoad
at half-past seven. Superintendent Hulbert
distributed tickets after adjournment last night
Something less than one hundred will go along,
and I am told the train will take provisions and
small stores for a cruise of ten days. Governor
Bollock starts off with tis. The City Govern
ment and people of Chattanooga, I am told,
have mado arrangements to givo tho party a
pnblio reception to-night, and for a trip up the
river to-morrow. Tho day promises to bo
bright nnd warm. There wero showers last eve
ning at some distant points in tho horizon, but
not in tho right direction—so that wo may chance
to find dust. The crop spectacles on tho road,
I am told, aro piteons—bnt moro on this sub
ject as we go along.
RimI Report or Crops from Monroe.
Monroe Countt, Ga., August 23, 1SG9.
Editor* Telegraph—Seeing no report from
old Monroo of tho crop prospects, etc., only
what is copied from the Advertiser, I have
thought proper to mnko known the fact that
cotton on upland is very nearly “gone up.” I
think from tho surroundings there will not be
more than a half crop of cotton mado this year,
that is in this region of country. In onr local
ity neariy all tho fruit of tho present month
has shod—owing to tho excossivo and continued
dry weather. The like I have never seen be
fore. It is opening rapidly, thongh much of it
promnlnrely. It is no use to disguise tho fact
any longer—tho cotton crop in this section will
bo a poor ono. In nil probability it is a bless
ing in disguise. Our planting friends havo had
guano nnd cotton on the brain to snch an ex
tent that little elso was talked or thought of.
Thoso who are depending on their cotton crop
to buy their com snpplics for another year will
surely “catch it,” unless they can all arrive at
the conclusion nnd satisfy themselves, as ono
of that class did to me tho other day, that “com
was a humbug,” and that ho had learned how
to mnko a crop without expense. All that de
luded class (and their name is legion) who have
been hogging the delusive phantom, bale to the
acre, and npicards, had as well begin to console
themselves, for they wont get it “nary time,”
from present indications. Truly yours,
A. J. P.
Tnn Seaport Appeal of Brunswick, of tho 21st
inst., 8ay3;
CuRERiNa.—About one hundred laborers ar
rived yesterday for tho Brunswick and Albany
Railroad. Hundreds more wanted. Report at
Brunswick.
Stilt. Progressing.—Despite the injunction
of the moneyed monopolies of the Southern hnb,
the work on the B. & A. B. H. is progressing in
snch a manner ns to cheer all friends of Bruns
wick in her efforts to establish competition and
relieve the masses from the clutches of the pow
erful Central Railroad monopoly.
Referring to a proposed visit by the Tfle-
gbahh in the fall, the Appeal says :
We say to our Macon eotemporaries, that we
shall welcomo them all the more cordially be
cause their presence among us will bo by rail.
Connected with them by rail, we shall feel that
they are onr neighbors ; and it will be alike our
pleasure and interest, to cultivate the most
friendly and intimate relations with them, and
the business men of tho flourishing city from
whence they come.
Take Maeon all in all, her press, her business
men, the style and bearing of her citizens gener
ally, nnd she is perhaps the most popular city
with the people, of any in the State. Why is
this ? Is it not owing in a large measure, to the
wise, liberal and unselfish policy which she has
maintained in relation to all questions of inter
prises seems to be, “Live and let live.” She is
prosperous and her prosperity is deserved, and
will, no doubt, be permanent.
“Pine” writes from New York, 19th instant,
to the Charleston Courier:
From Ohio the news is quite cheering. Pen
dleton will be elected Governor, and that, too,
with the assistance of numerous Republican vo
ters. His popularity among the masses surpass
that enjoyed by any other public man in the
State, and the financial question there—what
ever tho Republican leaders may say to the con
trary—is looked upon in the same light by both
the Republican and Democratic voters. In a
week or two, when the canvass will be at its
height there, all eyes will be turned toward
Ohio; no single State election having occurred
for years which so generally attracts the atten
tion of the entire Union as will the Ohio elec
tion in October. Of course, Eastern Demo
crats cannot, for consistency sake, stump Ohio
for Pendleton, but whatever moral or material
aid in the shape of funds for defraying the ex
penses of Pendleton's election to the Guberna
torial Chair will be required will be liberally
granted by the members of Tammany Hall and
of the Manhattan Club.
Rust.—The recent rains appear to have
checked the rust in cotton. We hear very little
mention of it on stiff lands, thongh sandy lands
suffered much previous to the rains.
Rain.—We had a fine rain in this section on
Sunday. Crops, generally, are doing very well;
thongh, in some parts of the county, rust and
drought have greatly injured them.
[ Weet Georgia Gazette, 2G th.
The Rome Courierof the 24th says ; We learn
that crops are materially injured in Polk coun
ty, from the long continued drought. Much of
the qpro is nearly ruined, and the cotton badly
damaged.
Last Sunday was one of the hottest days ever
known in Rome. The thermometer, at 3 o’clock
p. m., stood at 104 degrees, and at 9 p. m. at 89
degrees. The nights daring the past week have
been unusually warm for this locality.

GEORGIA.
By B. B. Bollock, Governor of said State,
Whebeas, Reliable information has been received
at this Department, that in the county of Terrell, on
or about tho night of the 18th day of July, ultimo, a
band of lawless persons, having first by force and in
timidation, obtained from the Jailor of the said coun
ty of Terrell the keys of the county jail, did illegally
and unlawfully open the said jail, and kill and mur
der one John G. Lee, by cutting his throat with a
razor, the said John G. Lee being at the time con
fined in said jail, handcuffed, and securely chained,
and, therefore, unable to defend himself against the
murderous attack of the said lawless persons; and
Whereas, Whether through fear of the aforesaid
lawless persons, or through willful neglect of duty, tho
civil authorities of said county of Terrell^ have failed
to inform this Department of the commission of this
barbarous and inhuman murder, and have also failed
to take any steps whatever towards the arrest of the
perpetrators thereof; in order, nevertheless, to effect
this object, to vindicate the majesty of law and the
sacredness of human life, and in order the more cer
tainly to bring to speedy trial and punishment these
guilty parties, I do hereby issue this, my proclama
tion, offering a reward of Five Thousand Dollars for
the apprehension and delivery to the Sheriff of said
county of Terrell, of the persons engaged in the per
petration of the horrible and atrocious murder here
inbefore recited, with evidence sufficient to secure
their conviction.
Given under my hand and the great seal of the State,
at the Capitol in Atlanta, this 24th day of August, in
the year of our Lord Eighteen Hundred and Sixty-
Nine, and of the Independence of theUnited States
of America, the Ninety-Fourth.
