There seems to be somewhat of a commotion among a portion of the Democratic press upon the matter of the called meeting of the Central Executive Committee of the Democratic party of Georgia. Both of the Augusta papers pro nounce the Committee functus *>ff\rio t and chal lenge their right to meet and question the occa sion. The Chronicle «fc Sentinel contends that their term of office expired last July,—which is a mistake, as no term of service was mentioned. The Constitutionalist says, ‘‘there are men on the Committee who have always fought the principles of Democracy, who took charge of the Democratic party under'circumstances such as do not now exist,” etc., and hints at purgation. On the other hand, several of the papers hint that our old friend, Judge 'Whitaker—a man born in the Democratic fold—must, be invited to leave the Committee as a heretic. The Jndge is certainly entitled to trial before banishment. We have no idea that the Committee intend to do anything violent or distractive, and shall await their action with composure. Meanwhile, the party is not inconveniently large and it is not worthwhile to expel any body who does not desire to go. We should recur to first principles. We un derstand a Democrat is one who believes in a strict construction of the Constitution,' and, therefore, necessarily affirms that the Federal Government is one of delegated and not origi nal powers; which latter must be restricted by tho terms of the grant. That the States are the depositories of sovereignty, and, therefore, that the whole coarse of proceeding which prodneed tho war and which have been had since the war, are in fatal conflict with the Constitution and republican liberty; and the government must be brought hack to the Constitution as its guide, or liberty and civil order will be finally lost— Wo understand that to be Democracy. But the Telegraph has invested nothing whatever in tho stock of mere personal hatreds and animos ities which Rome seam disposed to identify with Democracy, and In fact to consider the sum and substance of its creed. Tho Cotton Caforpillar— PrOVODtife Treatment. Tho Charleston News of the Oth has a long communication from Dr. John W. R. Pope, of St. Luke’s Parish, to the President of the South Carolina Agricultural Society, upon the cotton caterpillar—its ravages upon theeoast crops of South Carolina—its mode of hibernation, etc. The writer says: Tho cocoon of the caterpillar moth does un doubtedly bnxrow in the earth. I saw several ploughed out of the earth about the let April, ISC*'; took them up and found them active, and pronounced them unquestionably the ooooon of the cotton caterpillar. So did my foreman, a smart, observant and experienced man of his color. Planters around me report the same thing. This spring tho cocoons were ploughed up by thons :mds. This cocoon is as well known and as distiuguishablc by certain peculiarities both of motion and otherwise as the worm or moth, in which no experienced observer can be mistaken. It is idle any longer to entertain doubt on this subject. lie says the birds are no remedy, for tho coast of Carolina swarms with them. The remedy he suggests is that all the ootton lands and those contiguous, hhould be deeply ploughed up, so soon as the crop is gathered, so as to expose the Chrysalides or grabs to the frost and cold snaps, which will destroy them, no also recommends that the cotton stalks should bo carefully col lected and burned. Russel and Peter’s Brewery.—Passing by this establishment tho other day, wo were invi ted in by Mr. Peter, and for the first time found ourselves iu a manufactory of lager beer. Tho appliance* and arrangements are much moro elaborate and expensive than we supposed were needful, and the works are driven by a steam engine. The coolness of tho brewery, owing to itsseini-subterranesnlocation—its cleanness and the grateful odor of the malt, made it a pleasant retreat from tho hot snnshino. We saw tho Teutonic beverage in all its stages, and some of it throwing off the foam from the buughole like a spouting politician. A subterranean vault exca vated from a rocky hillside, forms the retreat of tho creature iu dog-days, where a cool damp at mosphere is calculated to keep his excitement within bounds. An experienced German brewer, Mr. Gruber, presides over the establishment, and Mr. Peter tolls us it supplies a large scope of country, including Columbus, Cuthbert, Ea- fanla, Albany, Americns, and other towns, with a beverage whjc.h the Germans think as neces sary ns bread. The State Road.—The Atlanta Constitution of the 7th insL snys : ‘‘Rumors were current on the street yesterday that the Central Rail road Company had proposed to lease the State Road and pay in monthly, in advance, the sum of £:»0,(X)i>. Wo don’t believe it, for there are now no parties to enter into the lease. We look at the rumor as rather a step to coerce the Ma con and Western Railroad Company into cer tain measures,” A Fine Plantation for Sale.—The plantation of Greene Hill, deceased, late of Houston coun ty, is to he sold at public outcry in Perry, on the First Tuesday in November next. See the advertisement. This place contains thirteen hundred acres, and is said to be one of the best farms in the great cotton-producing county of Houston. The Columbus Sun says : The place is one of the most valuable in Georgia. The lessee made £10,000 on it last season—said to have been a poor crop year. Thf.ke were six births on the same day in a house in Carroll county, Ga., last week. A lady had twins, two of her daughters each had twins. The sex were all boys. Says a Georgia paper, Commissioner Wiel might with pro priety be called home—Georgia wants no im- migiants. Near Byron. Michigan, is a spring of water so impregnated with lime that it has formed about its issuing point, by deposit, a natural curb, a rock with a hole in the centre. Every twig and leaf over which tho stream from this spring passes Is similarly coated with lime. ^ The ^ Ranken Knitting company, of Troy, New York, held a meeting on Friday, and re solved to shut down their mill at Cohoes forth with, on account of the scarcity of cotton. The Sandlake Mills, New York, have already stopped from the same cause, and it is said that most, if not all, the cotton mills in the vicinity will like wise suspend. The Hon. R. M. T. Hunter gives notice in a card, published in the Richmond Enquirer, that he is not a candidate for United States Senator from Virginia, and that his public life ceased with the war. Next to the astonishing fact that each of the New York evening papers has a larger circula tion thAn all the rest combined, is the singular incident that each published the news of the boat-race “in advance of all competitors." The matrimonial market at White Sulphur Springs has been the best of this season. The Cotton Crop and the Balls and Bears. Our highly intelligent Texas correspondent estimates the cotton crop of Texas at only one- third the yield anticipated last July. See his letter. Tho drought and the caterpillar have been even more destructive in Texas than in the cotton States east of the Mississippi. The blight has been universal, and we may .say that throughout the whole Cotton region it has cut down the anticipated yield from one-third to one-half! Tho crop of 1*£9 will ho harvested in a few weeks and we think it will disappoint even the planters, because no cotton is making at this time. What bolls have approximated matnrity are fast being opened by the hot snn and the dry scorching atmosphere. The stalk is dead or de prived of productive energy, and pickers will find their work done even sooner than they an ticipate. It is an extraordinary condition. We cannot call to mind one like it in all our long observation of cotton growing. But, meanwhile, the very facts which indicate to us the extraordinary meagrenesa of the crop, are eagerly seized by the bears in the New York market to break down quotations, and are used with considerable effect. They have already staggered the market, and knocked down prices one cent; and it is probable they will be able to do a good deal more than this. It is not to be wondered at, when we .see cot ton pouring in with such extraordinary rapidity. For example, look at the situation in Macon. Last year, up to the night of the Oth of Septem ber, wo had received of new cotton only 425 bales—but this year, to the same time, we have received 3000 bales! This is an extraordinary contrast; but, rightly considered, it only shows how fast and prematurely the crop is scorching into maturity, while the same fell cause which is pushing it forward so rapidly has blasted all those germs of fruit which were too immature to bo precipitated into the production of lint. A large portion of the middle and all tho top crop, which mnst be relied upon to eke out anything like a fair product, are hopelessly cut off. These facts, understood here, are not known or properly appreciated in the Northern market, and they will be slowly accepted at best. We should not, therefore, allow ourselves to be sur prised if quotations should adjust themselves, for 6ome time, on the basis of a very liberal crop—say tho neighborhood of three million bales. If they do, planters should, if necessary, accept advances on their cotton, and hold it till the facta are known and undeniable. There are those who believe that cotton next spring must command in the neighborhood of forty cents, and, at all events, it Is not a holding to do timid about We are sorry for this fail ure. We were in hopes the crop would have been a round one, bnt that it most be smaller than last year we have no doubt at all; and unless planters are disposed to be very liberal with the speculators, they will not accept any material abatement of present prices. Interestin£ from Texas. Hot Weather— Caterpillar— Cotton cut of tiro- thirds—The future Delivery men bit—Major Johnston's Brag Acre in Texas—Politics* Richmond, August 28th, 1869. Messrs. Editors : For the last two weeks tho weather has been intolerably hot The wonder, is that the caterpillar, have been able to with stand the scorching rays of the sun, but they have, and have multiplied and thrived wonder fully. Some good judges estimate the crop in this section at not over a third. The half grown bolls on 8talks that are stripped of their leaves, are moro likely to shrivel under the scorching rays of the sun, than they arQ to mature and open. Estimates are nothing better than wild guesses at best, when the crop has been seri ously damaged by disaster. Gentlemen who havo made contracts for fu ture delivery of ootton inside of 30 cents, as some have, will find themselves engaged in a losing business, unless they grow tho staple on their own plantations. If this generation has not got cotton on the brain, it would be exceedingly difficult to say wfaat is the insmirs on that organ. Haj. L jf. Johnston’s “ brag acre,” near Eufaula, has ta ken much of the starch and self-complacency out of some of the Brazos planters, who believed, nntil recently, that they could beat tho world in the production of tho sunny staplo. The result of that acre will be watched with more nervous interest than was ever beforo bestowed on the production of a single acre covered with what is only a common plant. If Maj. Johnston was not entirely free from cupidity and above ans- •; • f hum lggery, h • might he suspected of subsidizing the press in Southeast Alabama, from the terms in which his cotton is spoken of, with the ultimate view of selling the seed at twenty-five cents a piece or more. It is at length determined, it would seem from Washington telegrams, by tho administration, to throw the weight of its influence and patron age against Jack Hamilton. Washington is a good ways off, and as few of the Texans have the honor of a personal acquaintance with Grant or any member of his cabinet, the voters will not feel themselves under any obligation to Square their course by the whims of the bath ers nt Long Branch. All the unfair tests they mjiy exact of voters before registration, and all tho money they can apply, will not defeat Ham ilton. After all the Radical remedies resorted to by the reconstractionists to secure the Southern States for that party, it is almost certain, that under a fair election they could not carry one of them to-morrow. When they picked up the negro and converted him into a statesman, they “caught a tartar,” and they are finding it out. If Rev. H. M. Turner can’t fill the Post-office at Macon, his Ainighlo spouse showed a disposi tion to let the public understand that she was connected with one who possessed the confi dence of the administration, and therefore en titled to ride in a first class car. Well, I think Turner, after having enjoyed a full share of the attention of the press, may now be allowed to repose in quiet and go to seed. His name will soon bo known no more in print. Par Fois. Southern Buyers in New York.—Tho New York Mail, alluding to the extensive prepara tions of tho merchants of that city for tho fall trade, says: “It is a singular and suggestive fact that the only bnyers in our market who, as a class, havo an abundance of ready money, arc those who come from the South—a r<^ion so long associated in our minds with the waste and desolation of war, and with an unconstract- ed condition of business and productive indus try, that it seems odd to meet men from there who are actually “flush” with the proceeds of South ern products. The fact, however, is as unde niable as it is cheerful. The Southern people have learned economy by the hardest of experi ences. They have been taught to raise their own breadstuffs; to manufacture largely the coarser qualities of clothing; to keep ont of debt, and to ‘live within themselves.” Is it strange that now, after two of the most valuable cotton crops ever gathered, they should be com paratively rich and supplied with ready money, and be found in our market, not asking, as of old, for long credit, but seeking the best terms for ‘cashdown?' ” The Cincinnati Commercial has a correspon dent at Washington who has been forecasting the next United States Senate. He thinks it probable that the trades-unionists and anti prohibitionists will get control of the Massa chusetts Legislature and elect Colonel Greene Democrat, to the Senate in place of Wilson • that neither Anthony nor Cragin will be re elected ; that Sidney Clarke is likely to come from Kansas in place of Ross : that Login has the best chance to succeed Yates; that Judge Moses, of the State Supreme Court, will succeed Robertson, of South Carolina; and that Jesse D. Bright is the coming man from Kentucky. A New York paper writes: “Dr. Bellows says that Powers, the sculptor, blow3 out his candle when he retires for the night This can hardly be meant as a “puff” for Powers, although it does come from a “Bellows.” A Panama letter states that Frank Ward, son- in-law of Win. B. Astor, jumped overboard from the steamer Sicramento, near San Jose, and was drowned. The cause of the deed was mortification at not being able to pay the wine bill that he ran up on the steamer. From Marietta. From the Journal of Friday we collect the fol lowing : Homicide at Ringgold.—W. B. Whitmore, Revenue Officer, shot and killed a man near Ringgold, named Deadman, a whisky distiller, who attempted to escape from arrest Whit more was arrested. Mob rumors are connected with the report, bat we have nothing reliable. The Concord Manufacturing Comp ant recently commenced operations with a capital of $20,000. It is now about to enlarge it to $100,000. The Factory is turning out good woolen fabrics and is controlled by men in whose hands success Is beyond a doubt" Several gentlemen from Southern Georgia who arefprospectingfor settlement in our midst are ex pressing their appreciation of our many natural advantages in tho most gratifying manner. For Marietta, they said, we needed nothing to ren der it the most beautiful and desirable of locali ties but a little more enterprise among our peo ple in building np schools and extending our hotel accommodations. Thomas C’arlyle Swears that We are Going to Hell- From* Mr. RipUtfe LctUr i» tho Tribune ] The condition of America was descanted on by Mr. Carlyle in terms less remarkable for flattery than force. “As sure as the Lord reigns,” »Aid he. “you are rushing down to hell with desperate velocity. The scum of the world has got possession of your country, and nothing can save you from the devil's clutches. Not, perhaps,” cried he. raising his voice to its shrillest notes, “a hell burning with material fire and brimstone, but the wide weltering chaos of corruption in high places, and the misrule of the people. A fino republic that! England follows in the train, and is even now on the brink of the infernal precipice—and hell be low.” Of course I could make no reply to these “prophetic sound so full of ■woe,” but waited in serene silence for the tempest to pass orer. _ .irrarnsno Eitkxoedisakt.—The eccentri cities of advertising are always interesting study. Just ns we hear that one of the managers of New York has engaged n man to advertise his estab- ment by writing with chalk on the sidewalks— which may bo considered a return to first prin ciples—we have an instance c-f tho value which advertising facilities have gained. The postmas ter of New York, having several applications for the use of the fence ronnd the City Hall Park, while the postoffioo is building, advertised for bids. There were over a dozen offers, rang ing all the way from three hundred dollars, for the privilege of posting bills on the fence for two y.-.ir-i. to fifu-1-n thons-ir-d dollars for the same right. Tho highest bid was accepted, and the lessees will lay out the fence into lota and arrange a graduated scale cf prices, according to location. Owners of fences and dead walls in general must not expect to be at once enrich ed by tho lease of the bill-sticking privilege. foT this fifteen thousand dollar triangle is an ex ceptional bit of fence, in the busiest place, in the busiest city in the country. The amount of space covered by the contract is twelve hundred feet long by ten feet high. Tax ScxaxTos Houoa—The Herald de scribes the shaft of Avondale mine which was the scene of the late horror casualty as follows: The fire began at ten o’clock this morning (the Gth.) All reports agree it mnst have com municated from the ventillating furnace to the wood-work at the bottom of the shaft, which is 827 feet below the surface. The flames then rushed with great violence up tho shaft and broke out in the engine room at tho top. The engineer barely escaped with his life. The buildings covering the month of the shaft were 100 feet high and 200 feet long, all of wood and dry tinder. They were almost instantly enveloped in flames, and it was impossible to reach tho month of the shaft to help the men below. New Yobs Postoffice.—Work on the new postoffico for the city of New York has advanced to such an extent that the proposed change of site is no longer talked of, and is not desired by the government. The excavation has reached a depth of twenty-five feet, and the work of laying the concrete foundation bed and building the sustaining wall has been begun. The stone is all hanled and nearly all the earth is carted away at night in OTder to prevent a blockade of the streets. Once a month dnring the progress of the work a photograph of the scene will be sent to the supervising architect of the government at Washington, .who will thus be enabled at a glance and with tolerable clearness to discern how much has been accomplished daring the preceding thirty days. Ratlhoad Tax vie.—The increase of travel, as shown by the crowded trains, under the half fare system, tends to demonstrate that high charges have operated as a serious embargo on the people. If railroads can make more money at half than whole price, can’t hotels do the same thing ? We think the reason is stronger, because thousands who are obliged to pay rail road fare carry their cold provisions with them on account of the enormous charge of $1.00 for ordinary meals.—Cuthbert Appeal. A Spaniard has invented a very curious ap pliance for securing motive power. Tho con trivance, as described in the last Scientific American, consists of a diko along the sea-shore where the waves break with force. The dike presents an inclined plane toward the sea. When a large wave comes in it is carried up this in clined plane by its own force, and when at its greatest height is carried by sluice-ways through to the interior, -where is a reservoir to receive it. From this reservoir it runs in a steady stream, supplying a mill, and finding its way after that back to the sea. The American says it is used succcsssnlly in Cuba. “ Weil, farmer, you told us your woods was a good place for hunting; now, we’ve tramped through it for three hours, and found no game.” “Just so. Well, I calculate, as a general thing, the less game there is the more hunting yon have.” Sxooxs says there is a marked difference be tween birds nnd women. As an illustration of this, he cites the fact that a bit of looking-glass on a fruit tree will frighten away every bird that approaches it, while the same article would at tract more fair ones than a load of cherries. Scene at Long Branch: “Ibe horrid surf makes me keep my month shut.” Sarcastic hus band—“Take some of it home with yon.” A Ltdt in Portsmouth .recently declined the offer of a gentleman on the grontffi that he had no taste in arranging his necktie. * ^ A sroBTCfO nna by the name of Grant arrived in Washington yesterday. It is announced, however, that he* will leave to-day t6 attend a horse-race “upnorth.” The champion rat-terrier is in Illinois. He recently disappeared for eight days, at the end of which time ho came up, lean but fierce, through the ground, where he had been burrow ing in his chase for a rat that length of time. Ax Englishman was recently caught and al> most cudgeled to death in Spain. The people thought him a wizzard who carried off little children to eat their flesh and use their fat to grease the telegraph wires. It being important to prove a young man’s age in n recent trial at Erie, Pennsylvania, the family Bible was introduced, and its record of fered as satisfactory evidence. .The opposing counsel at first accepted it. as such, but on glnnc- ing at the title page, he found that the book was printed in lSGJ. and he successfully demanded that the evidence should be excluded. “The first marriage of a Hindoo widow” is re lated. How could it be her first if she were a widow ? A smart man. in Buffalo is organizing a divorce excursion to Chicago. Tickets will be sold cheap to any one desiring a divorce. Pcffecg and blowing are often considered as synonymous terms. You will discover a differ ence. however, if instead of puffing a man np you should blow him up. Ax enthusiastic traveler at one of the choice seaside retreats down East says : “We drink in an atmosphere so intoxicating that it ought to come nnder the restrictions of the Maine law." The difference between the bachelor and the married man is that the former has to look out for number one, and the latter for number two. Wirr were Adam nnd Eve the originators of sugar planting ? Because they raised the first Cain. Theee is a lady at Saratoga who has drunk so much water from the iron spring that she has received an offer from a shrewd blacksmith. Seventy women two years ago emigrated from Massachusetts to Oregon. Sixty-nine are now married. More deaths by drowning from surf bathing have been reported this year than ever before. The price paid for the Boston Advertiser a few days ago was $225,000. Six years ago the paper sold for $40,000. mER.lL NOTICE.
