About one-lialf of this coun ty lias been withont rain for over ton weeks ; tho otlior half has been without n season for some weeks. There is no Into cotton making in this county. I have seen a good many fields with nil tho young forms hanging on tlie stalks as yellow and dry as straw. Tho bast farmers say tlie county will not mnko a hnlf.crop of corn or cotton. There was n flno rain in this place yesterday which extended as far east ns Coving ton. It came too Into for crops, hnt was very refreshing to mail, as we were having awful warm weather. Yours truly, J. W. K. From the following extract from tho Sandus ky Register (Ohio) it would seem that onr friend, Itoff, who desired to bo styled Admiral of the Lake Squadron, does not confino himself to catching fish when summering at Pnt-in Bay : h'il. Register : Among the many incidents happening here in this busy and thronged water ing place, one occurred yesterday of more than ordinary interest, and worthy of record. Among the guests of tho Pnt-in-Bay House is one family of Johnsons from Coshocton, a very fine, well educated family. Yesterday, as one of the daughters was ont rowing, she. by over exorcise, fainted nnd fell into tho bay, but was rescued almost immediately by tho daring and heroic efforts of A. A. Itoff, of Georgia. Mr Uoff was on shore, [but in a moment pnlled off his coat, vest and boots,) and plunged into the water, bearing Miss Johnson safely into tho tioat. Mr. Itoff is an old visitor at tho Islands, and knows oxcctly how to manage in such a case, requiring immediate action. Bass. Mb. Carte;;, to whom this is addressed, has kindly furnished it to ns for the benefit of whom it concerns: Savannah, August 25, 18(19. Barkon Cartkb, Esq., Agent, Macon—Dear Sir : I enclose herewith a slip, cut from one of onr papers, giving instructions to consignees, relative to the cargo of San Jacinto. Yours respectfully, J. F.

Peofle s Defender (Newnan) 2,7th, says to-day (Tuesday,) we are again blessed with reviving showers and the prospect for an eastern gale is good. Crops have suffered much from drought. Fence Law.—W e learn that on the first Tues day in September there will be in this place a Convention of the people of Coweta for the con sideration and discussion of the proposed change in regard to the fence system and laws. The Annexation Meeting on Saturday last was a brilliant success, the large crowd congre gated surpassing all expectation. CoL Penning ton delivered an excellent address, which was well received and heartily endorsed. We were glad to see so many of onr colored people ont, and to learn that their sentiments are in unison with tho whites.—Mariana (Fla.) Courier. nsible man— who has visited Georgia since tlie surrender, will ventnro to say that he is not as safe here, in person, property, and feeling, as he would be in Boston, New York, Chicago or Washington— miserable sensational, interested, or fanatical scribblers to the contrary notwithstanding. It is true that onr people are not only willing, but most anxioas, to accept tho situation—to return to the American Union—to ignore the wrongs, nnd suppress the passions, of the war—to recon struct fraternity—to invite co-operation in all industrial enterprizes, and again exhibit to the world the most sublime of all historical.specta cles: a great pooplo living harmoniously be neath the protection of constitutional govern ment. Why aro wo not believed ? Why can not the intelligent men of all parties North givo ns credit for some sense—some honesty—some honor, and some respect for tho memories and traditions, nnd past developments, of Southern character? Onr interest—onr poverty—onr present—onr fntnra—even our sorrows, nro guaranties of the sincerity of onr professions. Ah! is it true that tho leaders of parly at the North are not only cognisant of tho tmo state of Southern opinion and Southern feeling; bnt nro also convinced that wo are trustworthy as to onr professions ? Wo think it is, but we fear, that notwithstanding, for tho sake of tho re tention of political power, they studiously teach tho pooplo that even Georgia is disloyal, and it is indispensable to subject her again to pro visional nnd military government. We can only say as we have said before—old party issue* are dead; and we belong to that party whieh will re- itore the State fully to the Union, the Confuta tion being the text of all obligation• and the pro tection of all right*. And we believe that we might, to this extent, speak for nine out of ten of tho people of Georgia. Bat our pnrposo is not now to dwell npon this subject. Wo return to tho inquiry, “will they come ?” These are not merely invitations of courtesy. Tho Fair is the rcsnlt of the necessities of tho country, is snstained by tho sentiment, nnd we might odd, tho enthusiasm of tho pooplo. Tho invi tations, thoreforo, spring ont of tho heart of tho Empire State of tho Sonth. They aro a practical iteration of tho as yet, by himself, un observed- injunction of Ulysses Grant, “lot ns hnvo peace. ” A tender of tho olivo branch. Tho object of the Fair is to stimnlnto nnd or ganize tho agricultural enterprise of Georgia Thoso things being so, why shonld not snch men ns Bontwell, Greeley, Sprague and Shormon, and others of liko position, favor ns with their presence ? Wo submit that the object appeals to their patriotism, beennso it will contribute to restore tho harmony of the Union, and re-estab lish, confirm and porpetnate free government Justice, charity nnd conciliation may effect all this—force and fraud nover. Force may extin guish tho life of tho Sonth, bat its spirit never. Onco in the Union npon the basis of cqaality. with tho other States, the North may be assured that Goorgin will, in good faith, enter npon a now experiment of tho practical working of tho venerated principles of 177C. It nppeah to tho generosity of tho North. * No civilized pooplo bavo suffered snch terriblo dis asters by war ns tho Sonthom States of tho Union. Wo pretermit tho doath of onr gallant men—tho melancholy berenvement of wives, children and friends—tho sad social disorders of onr communities nnd the political proscription of onr ablest men; and refer now to (he deplor- nblo poverty to which we have been reduced by tho sadden emancipation of tho negroes. This involved not only tho loss of property in slaves, bnt an immense depreciation in lands and al most nil other property—an ntter change in pre vious modes and habits of forming and planting nnd especially great redaction of incomo in all department of business. Agriculture bas been nnd must bo the chief bnsiness of tho people (as is well understood) tho basis of profit in other pursuits. The object of this Stato Fair being ns stated, it would seem that it makes an irresistible appeal for sympathy and countenance from snch men of tho North as control public opinion. If they nro men—if they are generous men, they will givo ns tho aid of their co-operating pres ence. Bat, again, it appeals directly to the interest of the North. Onr great staples aro ns necessary to tho North as to ourselves. Tho merchants of New York nnd Boston—tho manufacturers of New England—tho stock raisers of the West— tho creditors of the government—the day la borers of tho factories—publishers nnd nuthors —indeed, all classes nro directly or indirectly interested in tho ngricaltnre of Georgia and her sister States. We cannot stop to demonstrate these state ments—they are liko axiomatic troths, and really need no demonstrations. Wo need only farther say, that, if wo nro lot alone politically, and can secure tho aid of Northern capital and Northern enterprise and Northern sympathy, onr variously productive lands, and our gloriously fructifying climate will pour into tho whole Union tributes of wealth, richer by far than the golden ore of all the earth. Bat wo forbear. -IDS they come T Tho answer is with them. Does nny ono amongst ns suggest that theso utterances are unmanly condescensions. In reply, by no means—they aro consistent with both national and personal self-respect. Where truth and honor are not compromised, it is manly to ask aid in distress. 'What if we do stoop ? Wo stoop to conquer. To conquer what ? Peace, order and prosperity for our selves nnd our children. __ Horrible Outrage.—A Respectable Ladt Violated and Murdered. — A gentleman of known veracity and position in the State, who came down the State Road yesterday evening, reports that a respectable lady at Adairsville had been found, yesterday morning, murdered, and giving evidence of having been violated.— Her skull was fractured and contusions on her throat marked where the foul fiend clutched her in his murderous efforts. It was supposed to have been the work of a negro ruffian, and when the train passed, every citizen of Adairsville was engaged in hunting for the vile miscreant The Bullock-Anoier Sorr.—In onr notice yesterday morning of the law suit instituted by Gov. Bullock against Treasurer Angier, there was an error unintentionally made by ns. Gov. Bullock, for the use of the State, has instituted suit against Treasurer Angier for $21,000, al leging that he has used himself the funds of the State over forty-two times, and therefore liable in that amount under the law that imposes a penalty of $.">00 for each and every time the Treasurer uses or allows others to use the funds of the State. The declaration was filed by H. P. Farrow, Attorney General for the State. We learn that Gov. Bnllock has given a retaining fee of $500 to a legal firm in this case. Other suits are on tho tapis, and the fight is expected to open in earnest. [Atlanta Constitution, ‘lath. W Correspondent of the 21st inst. writes to the Chronicle and Sentinel; The corn crop in Walton, Jackson, Gwinnett, Newton and Hall, lias suffered severely from the drought, and the cotton prospect is quite gloomy. Not more than half crops will be raised, yet, altogether, a sufficiency to prevent suffering. of Maconians, who reported themselves get ting along comfortably. Air salubrious—living good—no mosqnitoes, etc.—amusements scarce. Living just for the sako of health must be dull business. •' f \ The country does not look so badly parched np as I anticipated, and below Marietta the for est trees and nndergrowth show more signs of distress than above that point. Tho people will make more com than reported. I find the Western and Atlantic Road in fair condition and improving. The fact is, Colonel Hulbert is a firstrate railroad man, and is mak ing some very important improvements to this great property of tho State. Ono of these is a I proper ballasting of tho road with stone. The | track is made dry and solid—the cross-ties do not eh urn in wet weather and so throw the track ont of level—and the ties themselves, being kept comparatively dry, last much longer. Tho pro cess of ballasting is os follows: After the rrack I is laid, it is then raised abont eight inches and underlaid with stones not bigger than your fist, nnd rammed underneath with iron crowbars. After each tio is thus given a solid bearing, the intervals are all filled up' with the stones and the sides of tho roadway excavated in ents so as to givo the track a comparative elevation of five feet. By this means tho track is always firm, and sufficiently dry in tho wettest weather. This work costs about $2500 per mile, and is, in the long rnn, a grand economy. Col. Hulbert will, in time, ballast tho whole road and save a great deal of money to the State, although tho immediate outlay will be heavy. In such per manent improvements which aro the dictates of a wise economy—in replacing all the structures stroction of houses it must produce a sensa tion. There was also a great variety of iron ore—one, a Hermatite ore, considered to be ninety per cent, pure iron. A surprising vari ety of clays—of mineral paints—of stone for sharpening purposes, etc., etc.—forming a col lection of hundreds of specimens which we could only glance at. bnt should be studied for hours. A collation from the hospitable people of Car- tersville closed the visit, and we moved off with cheers and hearty regrets that we could not stop longer. Cartersvillo Is growing rapidly. It is in the midst of a fine country, and is des tined to be an important place. But I am tired of writing on tho cars. We have just passed the tunnel, and I will stop. The Ineouie I .a its. Washington, August 23.—The movement al luded to some time ago favoring a modification of the laws affecting incomes has assumed a more formidable and general character. The plan proposed is to increase the tax on whisky to one dollar per gallon, which it is claimed will realize $80,000,000, if tho means now within reach of the revenue bureau for the prevention of fraud shall be adopted; from tabacco at least $30,000,000 can be realized; from stamps, with a modification of the present law, say $10,000,- 000; from fermented liquors $10,000,000; from license $10,000,000, and then from the modified incomo tax but $15,000,000 would bo required to make a total of $155,000,000, an amount equal to Secretary Boutwell’s estimate of the expenditures of the present fiscal year. The plan is to confine the income tax to the tax on interest paid on the national debt, tho five per cent, to be deducted when the interest is paid, This will realize $0,255,000, without a dollar of expense incurred in the collections. The bal ance it Is proposed to raise by taxing incomes derived from surplus property embraced in stocks of banks, railways and other corporations and from interest paid on bonds of such corpo rations.

At Cartersville a very large assemblage of la dies and gentlemen had gathored to greet us, nnd welcomed tho train with shouts and the strains of martial music. On leaving tho care, tho Governor and fraternity of press wore ad dressed by the venerable Colonel M. A. Cooper, os follows: Gentlemen of the Krcureion :—We present ourselves os a Committee from tho citizens of Cartersville, to reccivo and greet yon on this | occasion. To yon, gentlemen of science, intel ligence nnd worth—representatives of the press; nnd yon, Superintendent Halbert of tho Western and Atlantic Railroad, nnd Governor Bn#|£>ck, of Georgia, wo give a hearty welcome, nnd’Ten- der to yon the hospitalities of this little place. Tarry in it as long as yonr objects and conve nience may anthorizo. Yonr visit is welcomo to several of the peoplo of Georgia and especi ally to Cherokee. By the wise and enlightened policy of this administration, yon aro called to see and examino tho mineral resources of our country. He has well remarked that the iron interests of Georgia are second only to that of tho cotton region. More than that will prove tine. In its results and associations for natural wealth, grandeur and power, in peace or in war, it will far exceed that of cotton. Tho officers of tho Cartersville and Van Wort Railroad, havo gathered an army of mineral specimens of ore from tho vicinity of Van Wert in aid of yonr researches. These are here dis played before yon. Wo think, that for valne, variety richness and abandonee, tho like cannot be produced from any other location in any country. Hero is slate for roofing, for furniture, for building and for other purposes; iron ore withont limit; marble of all varieties from whito to black; grindstones, whetstones and hones; mineral paints, plnmbngo and fire clay, with gold-bearing quartz—all in close proximity to stono coal. We havo added a few samples of iron ore from Etowah. Theso aro well known and havo been tested and used for all purposes for twenty-fivo years. We havo sent tho pig iron from these ores to England and had cntlery made of it. Hero is a razor there made from it, yet in tho original package. Gentlemen, yon are now on tho line of the great mineral formation of the Sonth—tho tran sition from tho primary to the secondary forma tion. Yonr examinations and comments will gratify the pride of Georgians and excite the admiration of all who read or hear. To theso remarks Gov. Bnllock responded, in substance, as follows: CoL Cooper, Gentlemen of the Committee, Ladies and FeUoic-Utuens: I can speak as confidently for CoL Hulbert, as I can for my self, when I say that our ambition is to use this great property of tho State of Georgia—this Western and Atlantic Railroad—so as most effectually to develop the grand natural re sources of this ancient State, and to promote every interest of her people. I hail with joy the prospect of the speedy construction of the Cartersville and Van Wert Railroad, which can not too soon be built, and the more effectually to interest the people of Georgia and tho out side world in those immense mineral deposites which constitute so large a portion of the in comparable natural wealth of the State. I have invited the gentleman of the press to visit with me and personally inspect these vast deposites. I am sure that CoL Clisby, here present, who, as President of the Georgia Press Convention, will feel authorized to speak for the fraternity will echo to the full the sentiments that yon, Mr. Chairman, havo so well expressed on this in teresting occasion. Hero the gentleman alluded to, was “bronght to the front” and said : Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen—The tremendous social revolu tion which has just been brought upon us con trary to our will, is bnt the harbinger of a more sweeping and momentous industrial revolution npon which we have just entered. Let ns meet it with a full consciousness of all its stupendous consequences npon ourselves and onr children. Let ns open onr eyes to the fntnre and try in part to close them against the past. Let ns learn to contemplate and to anticipate the time, fast approaching, when Georgia will be, not on ly the Empire State of the Sonth, but the Em pire State of the Union. After the speechmaking, a deputation from the city of Chattanooga, consisting of Tomlin son Fort, R. S. Keadrick, editor of the Repub lican, J. S. Wiltse and C. J. Woodbury, Educa tional correspondent of the Constitution, were introduced to the press fraternity and tendered the hospitality of the city. The mineral specimens submitted by the Cartersville committee were very numerous and surprising. There were numerous samples of slate, and several of a beauiful solid maroon color, veined with black. This slate, when quarried, is so soft as to be easily sawn or planed, but hardens by exposure to nearly the hardness of a flint. It was beautifully polished, and as lustrous as Parian marble.

In consequence of the almost fatal apathy of the profession, this diseaso has been tho remote cause of consignment to an untimely grave of more victims than Asiatic Chol era ; for it performs as certainly, though more tard ily, after years of mental anguish and physical Buffering, what choleba accomplishes in a few lioura. Bo long as the people remain ignorant of the causes which produce Coxsrairnotr, and of tho symptoms which mark its first stealthy and insid ious approaches, we cannot hope that any timely steps will bo adoptod for its pretention. CoxsrsrPTiox have several stages ; it has a first, or forming stage ; a second or confirmed stage; and a third, or ulcerative stage. The lungs do not become immediately stuffed with tubercles, or cor roded with fonl ulcers, but only after months or years of irritation, or slow insidious progress from tlio slight catarrh to the seated bronchitis, charac terized by & little hacking cough, slight pain in the chest, occasional flushes, accelerated pulso, furred tonguo and dyspepsia. Thenfrom bronchitis to the first disposition of alittlo tubercular matter in a single globule, with more or less aggravation of all the previous symptoms, as tho deposits increase in quantity, supplanting tho healthy structure of the lungs, when softening or ulceration takes placo, festering and burrowing among the dolicato air cells, until tho whole of tho diseased lungs become reduced to a hopeless mass of disorganization, and that dread malady has reached its last and fatal stage. Tho error is too wido-spread among tho peoplo, and too general even among physicians, to regard Coxanrmos as a diseaso characterized not only by rough, bnt Pnrulent Expectoration, Hectic Fever, Night Sweats, Wasting of Flesh and Loss of Strength ; in other words, to apply tho namo Cox- uumox only to tho last stage of tho diseaso.— Were it otherwise, wo shonld not have to listen with feelings of pity and sorrow to snch expressions as “it is only a Catarrh,” “tho diseaso is all in the throat,” or “it is only a slight bronchial affection.” Alas, how few realizo tho fact that theso diseases, unimportant as they aro generally looked npon, and Coxsraipnos, aro all links in tho samo chain, and that there aro few who suffer from theso affections who do not sooner or later fill a consumptive’s gravo.

Catarrh is generally tho result of noglectod and frequently repeated attacks of tho acuto variety of this diseaso (which become practi cally known to most of us soveral times a year in tho shapo of a “cold in tho head.”) After a long or shorter timq the liabilities to at tacks of Acute Catarrh become increased, and tho patient finds, after it lias passed off, thero remains a discharge of yollow Mucus. This is Chronic Catarrh in its most usual form. On examining tho nostrils with a speculum, or instrument specially adapted to that purpose, wo find its lining mem brane more or less thickened—rodder than in health, and often ulcerated. In tho simplest form wo havo merely an acenmnluation of yellow or straw-colorod mucus in tho Posterior Fares abovo and behind tho palate, which the patient “ kawkB” ont from time to timo daring tho day. As tho diseaso advances, little points of ulcoration ap pear in tho mneons membrane, npon which tho so cretion becomes hardoned, forming crusts, requir ing almost constant “ picking" to keep it free; and as these inspissated masses of mnena aro tom from tho diseased surface of tho nose, they become irri tated and frequently blood profusely. OZJBITA Is only an advanced stago of Chronic Catarrh when tho ulceration of tho mneons membrano has become extensive and tho hones of tho nose in volved in tho diseaso. Tho discliai-ges in this caso aro purulent, or of a yellowish or greenish color, frequently tinged with blood, with an odor generally more or less disagreeable, or intolerably offensive. In tho language of Dr. G. B. Wood, of Philadelphia, “This form of diseaso is ono of tho most obetinato and disagreeable affections which tho physician has to encounter. In some instances tho breath of the patient is so revoltingly offensive as almost to iso late him from society, and render him an object of disgust even to himself.” This form of tho disease generally occurs in strumous, scrofulous and un healthy constitutions. When tho health is injured and the vitality of tho system is broken down by dissipation and vicious habits, tho blood becomes impure, and all local diseases are liable to assume an aggravated character.
