Focrtu Paoz.—Sumac — The Lost Cotton | Crop—2,2CO,.757 bales—Adieu to Chignons. Tlio Marnn Cotton Market. A Factor thinks we ought to venture a remon strance with producers against pressing their cotton to sale, in tho existing conditions of the market. -117 bales were sold yesterday, at 26} and below, and the market closed doll, quota- | tions nominal, on account of the anxiety of holders to sell. We think this policy is equally needless and erroneous. If planters must have money, no doubt, it can readily be procured by hypothecating their colton; end although twen ty-five and six cents is a good price, thirty is better, and that ot more, it seems to be the gen eral opinion, every pound of middling of this crop is Ironnd to command, if not pressed on the market. The buyers now have it all their own way on account of the extraordinarily early and rapid manner in which the crop is coming forward—but the winding up of this crop, in onr opinion, is going to bo more sudden and re markable than its opening in the market. Let tho people havo courage and patience. When the crop all comes forward and is in tho hands of manufacturers, the supply will be many hnndrcd thousand bales abort. Specula tors are tboreforo bound to make a good thing on this crop, bnt they tie not going to force sales. Neither should producers. Gnlhering Niiiiine. We havo copied from the New York Mercan tile Journal an article upon Sumac, which might be of some value to the people of this State. We observed, in tho course of our recent ram bles in Northern Georgia, that sumac grows very abundnntly in those fertile and mountain ous regions. Last year, sumac gathering was n very brisk business in Virginia, and almost any hand coaid make at it from two to three dollars a day. The profits, indeed, were so grest that farmers found it a great embarrassment on ac count of tho temptation it presented to their hands to abandon the fields and the crops. Very large amounts were shipped from Virginia to New York. We tee no reaeon why Upper Georgia could not realizo a hondsomo contribu tion to wealth and comfort in gathering and cur ing tho sumac which abounds in that region. In formation should be obtained of the best modo of gathering and curing, and the proper season, and then we have no donbt there are many, white and black, who cannot or do not labor in the field, who might make a very handsome sum out of Bumnc. The Atlnntn Fire. The telegrams have apprised us of a serious conflagration in Atlanta on Sunday morning, about four o'clock. It broke out in the store of Compton k Peddicord, on Marietta street, be tween Whitehall and Broad streets. This was one of a row of wooden buildings, which in tho dry woather burnt like tinder. The fire was stayed at the National Hotel, which was dam aged by the intense heat and loss of furniture. The sufferers were Compton k Peddicord, Hen ry Seltzer, J. Wariick, McMillan Sc Snow, A. J. Ormo, Pemberton, Willson, Taylor k Co., W. Powers A: Sons, John Bookout, Malone k John son, W. 0. Lawsho, John Gam, B. Hermann, Reynolds A Hall, Dan Lynch, Larendon k Bro., L. Miholovitch and the National Hotel. Most of the losses nro covered by insurance. Asswza.—Speaking of tho truce between the two fnctions of tho radicals, the Atlanta New Era says: Don't bo too fast, brother Clisbv and we will tell yon all about it. But how about passing the Fifteenth Amendment and reseating colored members. Will yon do it ? “Tell us si about it." Very mneb bangs upon your action. Be cautious, be wise, and may tho God of Wisdom, justice and pence bo with you, and bless and prosper you in well doing. So far as “reseating the colored members,” is concerned, we do not donbt that, under tho Con stitution thoy oro ns much ontitlcd to seats in tho Legislature ns anybody, and that reseating them, in accordance with the Supromo Court decision, will bo nn act of no great practical evil, so far ns tho State is concerned. Bat when you oomo to tho Fifteenth Amendment, and nsk us to blot oat the independence of the States—and arm Congress with the power to say who shall or shall not be citizens,of the States— in point of fact to constitutionalize the destruc tion of the wholo confederated fabrio ns bnilt by *.ho fathers, it will not be done with onr con sent. Protection’.—At a meeting of tho Shipowners’ Association held in New York last week, it was atnted that in New Brnnswick the wooden part of the hull of a sailing vessel was bnilt at $22 in gold per ton, while on the opposite side of the river in Maino the same thing in every respect would cost $4.7, cnrroncy, and that the people could not be expected to invest in shipping un der such circumstances. The ship owners declared the only remedy for this condition of things was free trade, and American bottoms had been “protected" ont of existence. Bcried the Hatchet.—Wo see by nn Execu tive order that the New Era has buried the tomahawk and become an appointee as publish er of the Executive proclamations by authority. And speaking of this business, by tho way, wo see some of the press are disposed to carp at tho Democratic nppointees, very unjustly, as wo think, inasmuch ns no doubt they would publish if requested. Our rule is never to re fuse any legitimate business which comes to hand. Cotton - Cnop or 1SGS.—It will be seen by an article upon the outside, that the New York Ship ping and Commercial list, said to be generally accepted ns authority, makes last year's cotton crop only tiro million, tiro hundred and sirty thousand, fire hundred and Jifty-seten bales. Poatsewortt.—The colored citizens of Spald ing county held a meeting in Griffin on the 10th, to express their condemnation of the robberies and violences committed in that region by “a hand of robbers and assassins, composed chiefly of colored men,” and pledged their best efforts to bring the offenders to justice. Hox. A. H. Stephen’s and Geo. T. Cabtee.— Mr. Stephens has an article of six columns in the New York World, of the 11th, in reply to a review of his book by Hon. Geo. T. Carter— principally devoted to the position of Mr. Web ster on the State rights question. The Central Executive Committee of the Democratic party of Georgia meets in Atlanta to-day. Wbat is the occasion of the meeting or what it is likely to do we know not. Yalce of a Matrimonial Promise.—In Mon treal on Saturday, Sophia Granger recovered $3.1,000, of one Beming, for not keeping his promise to marry her. Ob, Sophia. Legislative Extravagance. The evil results of Legislatures which hold no responsiblity to the tax-payers of a State are strongly illustrated in North Carolina. The Raleigh Sentinel says the last Legislature of that State appropriated for railroads and turnpikes alone the enormous snm of twenty-six millions nine hundred and seventy thousand dollars—for which bonds are to be issued, which are now worth in the market about thirty-three cents in gold—so that the whole amount will produce, if they can be sold at this rate, about the snm of A 5 ; P90,000. This, however, will be handsome winnings for the graceless adventnrers who control the polites of the Old North State. They will divide out and ramose with full pockets, leaving the Old State a good many feet above her eyelids in debt Now, what is to be done ? North Carolina bad nothing to do with incurring this debt—that is to say, the North Carolina who must pay it, if it is paid at all! Tho tax payers and proper ty holders never gave their consent to its crea tion. Their voice was hushed and stifled and smothered by the unconstitutional action of Con gress, in creating for North Carolina, contrary to all the fundamental principles of free gov ernment, a people, who had none of the proper attributes of a people so far as legally and mor ally binding the property of the State to pay this debt was concerned. They could, legally and equitably, just as well have bound (be peo ple of New England to pay that debt A man cannot be brought in debt without his own consent—nor can a people—a body politic —be brought in debt without their assent to it When Congress by usurpation created a people for these States without the consent of the same, and this people, representing hardly a dollar of taxable property, under the evil advice of foreign adventurers and mercenaries, create enormous debts and pledge the property of the State to pay them, it becomes impossible in the nature of things that they Bhoold be oollected of the property-holders and tax payers except by force—for all the principles of justice and equity have been outraged in the creation of these debts. Hence, in South Carolina, where a stupend ous debt has been created in the same way, the people (that is, the whites,) are now holding meetings and notifying the world in advance not to bny these bonds, because they will not and cannot be paid. We say "caveat emptor,’’ and every bnyer of common intelligence in this cose is without excuse; because there is no man who has the faintest notion of Republican institutions, or of the Constitution, or of com mon justice and equity, who does not know that these hypothecations of the property of the tax-payers are, under the circumstanees, outrages upon all. The case of Georgia, considered in the light of equity, very materially differs from that of the Carolinas. For although a people have been made for us by the usurpation of Congress, yet virtually in tho creation of onr debts the tax- paying people havo never lost control. Their representatives have been wofully extravagant, bnt still they were, in equity, if not in law, re presentatives cf the tax-paying people; and we cannot plead like the Carolinians that our voices have been hushed while our property has been encumbered with enormous debts. It becomes tho people of Georgia, therefore, to use every influence to curb Legielative extravagance. It has been alarming and must be stopped or the State will be bankrupt. X Venerable Institution Failing. The Calcutta papers report that the Jogger- nauth Festival in India this year has been al most a dead failure—no faith—no energy or en thusiasm exhibited by the worshippers ; and on the last day of the festival, July 19th, two cars, decorated with flags and idols, were left stand ing on the roadside and partially in the ditch, in conseqenoe of the refusal of tho people to pull them. Numbers, it is stated, had been hired to applaud and to pull, but the oars were only moved half the usual distance, and then were left on the roadside. The crowd collected was estimated at seventy-five thousand persons, at tho highest, being only pne third of the usu al assemblage, and only one man being present to fifty women and children. Donbtless the old Brahmins shake their heads at this awful apostacy of the people, and pre dict a final dissolution of Nature in conse quence ; but there is no intelligent outside con servatism in respect to “Jaganatha—the Lord of the world." We shall hear of tho final upset- ment of his lofty old wagon without r. sigh, and bo glad to see him crushed under bis own pon derous wheels. Rat Juggernauth is an old insti tution. The Hindoos date bis present princi pal temple some where about tho year 1120, and ho bad been in the business thousands of years before the corner-stone of that vast structure, which with its enclosure, covers tenaoresand towers upward of two hundred feet, had been laid. This news will be interesting to the Christian philosopher, as part and parcel of the manifest drift of the great Eastern world from the moorings which have held them thousands of years, not only in the bonds of superstition, bnt of a political and social isolation so profound that instruction and improvement could not reach them. It was bnt the other day that the newspapers chronicled the remarriage of a wid ow in the Brahminical caste—an eTent abhor rent to all Hindoo ideas and customs and which has a meaning that one not intimately acquaint ed with that race of people is qualified to com prehend. Monroe County Items. We clip the following from the local column of the Monroe Advertiser, of the Ittb.: Cotton continues to come into market, as if the season was at its height. It is generally conceded that the crop of tnis county will be ready for market by the middle of October, and that it will fall short of the expectations of onr planters fully one-half. The revival at the Baptist Church has been progressing the past week with many gratifying signs, and the probability is that it will be con- tinned throughout the present week. Dr. Hill- yer and Mr. Pledger are untiring in their labors and the results, thus far, have amply repaid their earnest efforts. The ordinance of bap tism was administered to four new members last Sabbath, and it is quite likely that several others will be added to tho Church. The weather is pleasant, bnt continues dry and dnsty. Rain is needed in nearly every portion of the county. The discussion of the immigration question was continued with great spirit by the Monroe Agricultural Society at its meeting on Friday last. L. A. Ponder, W. B. Meek, R. G. Ander son, Geo. S. Smith, Dr. Lawton and Mr. W. D. Stone, being speakers. Decision reserved till next meeting. $100 Premium Offered for a Plough. Editors Telegraph : In view of the want of improved agricultural implement s adapt ed to the necessities of Southern farmers, and wishing to advance the interests of agricul ture in Middle Georgia, I offer, for any turn. plough cutting a furrow twelve inches broad and ten inches deep, of a draft not exceeding the capacity of two good horses, which will turn and perfectly shed the soil of certain red upland on my plantation—one hundred dollars. The plough to be separate as to mould-bars and shares or points. I have used Dodge’s Perfect, Brinley’s Universal, Peekskill, Avery’s and Reyuolds’ ploughs, and all are defective in turning the soil and cleaning themselves. J. H. Brviss. TaylorCo., Go., Sept. 13, 1S69. The Atlanta Intelligencer failed to pat in an appearance yesterday. The London Times and Mr. Bright on the Cotton Trade. The London Times had another article on the 10th, on tho cotton trade and supply. . It says: ’•There was a time when the intelligence of a good supply of cotton in the United States Would have carried satisfactory assurance to the manufacturers and workingmen of Lancashire. The sadden destruction of the old cotton trade has been attended with the destruction of the old conditions. Things are no longer as they were. Though the cotton supply has come back again, new fields and factories have been opened, some under the shelter of protection, and some in a more natural atmosphere. A more extensive demand for the raw material raises the price, and that rise deprives us of the conditions essential to the superiority we once maintained.” John Bright says in a letter a good harvest will tend to restore health to the general trade of tho country, and when we have a sufficient supply of cotton, Lancashire will recover from her distressed condition. It is more cotton we want, and not more taxes on imports. I sus pect the people of Lancashire will not fail to understand this. A Walled City. Since the recent storm in the Sonthwest which submerged portions of the Crescent city, the Picayune is strongly urging the project of wall ing the city all round as a final protection against overflows. If this be done we shall have the first walled town in the UnitedJJtates. Picayune of the 10th says: In a visit to the rear Of the city yesterday evening, we were pained to see a Urge section still under water, and much of the water from the canals which has spread over a vast area of nearly level land will never be drawn off by any ot the draining machines, and will stand until evaporated by the action of the sun’s rays. It is fortunate for the city that the summer is dy ing and that bnt little if any injury can accrue from the miasma arising from these bodies of stagnant water. In midsummer it is more than probable that, under the present circumstances, not all the quarantine regulations on earth would have averted a decimating epidemio. Every sensible man feels and knows this, and we have not conversed with a single individual who is not an earnest advocate of having con structed os speedily as possible the wall, or levee, as described by the Picayune, around the city. We are pleased to notice that the Bulletin also strenuously advises that the measure be adopted as the only one which promises permanent re lief. Editorial Decorum.—CoL Forsyth, of the Mobile Daily Register, who is well styled the Bayard of the Southern Press, in a controversal article with the Tribune, says : The editor of the Tribune confesses to the opinion that a gentleman may say things in print under license of the editorial “we,” which, to say in "propria persona," would be violative of the rules of courtesy and propriety. We do not agree with him, for the reason that we can not oonceive of any circumstances to reconcile a gentleman to even momentarily forgetting himself and throwing off his true character.— In fact, the manners and habits of gentlemanly courtesy cannot be cast aside like a garment and resumed at pleasure. Two hundred negroes are said to be studying for the priesthood in Rome. That is a sign that the Pope is a shrewd propagandist, he is certainly not a bad humanitarian. These col ored men are intended for the brethren in the South, to whom Rome's first argument is that it has educated two hundred of their kind. The Air-Line Railroad. —Tho grading for the first twenty miles of the Air-Line Railroad is nearly ready for the roils. The locomotive, ears and iron for this road is expected tho com ing week. As soon as it arrives, tho Tails will be laid to Peachtree Creek. The timbers for the bridge at this creek are now nearly ready for putting up. It is estimated that in four days time the bridge can be so nearly completed as to allow the trains to erosa. When this is done, the work of laying the rails will be continued until the whole twenty miles is laid down. In a few days the contract for grading the road to Gainesville, will be give out. We learn that it is highly probable that the Air-Line Rood will nrehaso the depot of the Atlanta and West ’oint Railroad, as a freight depot. Under the sage advice of its Chief Engineer, the Air-Line is rapidly progressing, and will soon garner in j of North ' “ “ Georgia.—Constitution. the products A. J. White, Esq —We learn, says tho Consti tution, that A. J. White, Esq., President of the Macon and Western Railroad, has gone to New York after the iron for the Griffin and North Alabama Railroad. Rails are being laid at Griffin, and the iron purchased by Mr. White will complete the track to Newnan. Englishmen still cling with tenacity to the hope that Dr. Livingstone is still living, not withstanding no long a time has elapsed since any tidings were received from the African trav eler. They believe that he is the captive of some African chief, or that he has turned away westward from Lake Tanganyika, having per haps found a clue to tho origin and water sheds of the Congo river. A letter from the wife of the well, known traveler, to Captain Barton, and which is supposed to reflect tho latter’s views, expresses a belief that Dr. Livingstone is a prisoner at the Town of Luce do, or Lunds, the capital of the King of Cazembe. California wines, it is asserted, will now be more extensively used on the Atlantic coast akd the States bordering on tho Mississippi, since the freight from Sau Franciscohas been reduced to $4 GO per hundred pounds, one-half the for mer charge, which was represented as being prohibitory of the trade. A car containing eight hundred and twenty five cases of frnit, of which seven hundred and thirty-eight were filled with grapes, arrived in New York the other day from California. The grapes wero entirely jolted to pieces by their seven days’ journey.' The road from Chicago to New York was much rougher than that across the plains. FUNERAL NOTICE.

Editors—Sirs : Tho Inhaler and Atomizer are instruments for the purpose of making Local Applications of remedies for the arc of disease within the Throat, Larynx, Bronchial Tubes and Lungs, are used by me as auxiliary remedial agencies in all affections of these parts. By means of the cnuuxo instru- msxx a medicated vapor of a mild soothing Ano dyne or Alterative character, at a temperature about blood heat, is drawn into the lungs, and comes into contact with the diseased surfaces, al laying irritation and quieting Cough; assistingthe expectoration of phlegm and matter, the accumu lation of which gives patients, far advanced in Consumption, so much distress; promoting the healing of cavities formed by the breaking down and expulsion of tubercular deposits, and, in cases of Asthma or Phthisic, relaxing the dis tressing constriction about the Chest, and cat ting short, frequently, almost instantaneously the paroxysm. In fact, it is the only means by which I have ever been able to cure Asthma. The Therapeutics of Inhalation are not limited to few articles of the Materia Hedica, but com prise some of the most valuable mineral, and nearly all vegetable remedies known to Medical men; and the intelligent physician who has de voted a sufficient amount of attention to this method of treatment, to learn the doses to bo used, and their peculiar effects when adminis tered in this maimer, can select remedies to meet any and all indications. Many of the most eminent physicians of both Europe and Amorica have devoted much of their attention of late years to Inhalation and Atomi zation, and now employ them in all cases of dis eases of the Throat and Lungs coming under their core, and their use has been followed by results hitherto unattained by any other means of treatment. But the effects of inhaled remedies are not exclusively local. Many of them have a more powerful and certain constitutional influence than the same remedies administered by the stomach. Yon have no doubt witnessed the in halation of Sulphuric JEther, Chloroforms and “ Laughing Gas,” and seen sensibility destroy ed in tho most distant parts of the body in a few seconds by merely breathing a small amount of tho vapor—have seen the system aroused into life from a death-like faint by inhaling ammo nia from a common smelling bottle. These are some of the familiar examples of the constitu tional effects of inhalation. Many othors could be given, such as the baneful influence of “foul air” in mines, caves, and the badly ventilated tenements of large cities. Also, the contraction of infections diseases by breathing the emana tions and pestiferous vapors that fill the rooms of patients suffering from such diseases. I am satisfied that Consumption is very frequently communicated and contracted in this manner. Sir Charles Scudamore, one of the most eminent of English Physicians, has said of Medicated In halation : “ For the sake of humanity, then, I recom- “mend the treatment, and will repeat what I “have said in the preface to tho work already “mentioned. It is not on selfish grounds I ad- “vocate the practice. What concerns my repu- “tation is personal and transient, and of little “moment; what relates to science and the in- “terest of mankind is for all ages, and of inestl “mable importance."—London Lancet. It is not claimed that Inhalation will cure all cases of Consumption. Unfortunately, too many come to me who are beyond the hope or assistance of any hand that is not omniponent, or any remedy that is not a miracle, bnt what is claimed for it is the power of arresting and caring diseases of the Lungs in stages beyond the influence of any other remedy. ATOMIZATION Differs from Inhalation in this respect, that the remedies are applied to the Throat, Larynx and Bronchial tubes in the form of spray, or a fine mist, either cold or warm, according to the indi cations to be fulfilled. By means of the Atom izer any remedy can be applied which can b9 dissolved in water or alcohol; bnt the limits of this article will not permit me to describe it at greater length. I shall, at all times during my stay here, be pleased to explain its theory and application to all persons who apply to me at my rooms. I am, very respectfully, Your obedient servant, JAS. A.

Wo think we are acting in tho intereels of ti-ket holders in reeking to have none others than those who hive purchased tickets, share in th, drawinf. Should the a ravine take place now. the proprietor would be compelled, in order to save himrelf from loss, to take h-s chance in thodraw- ioc with tho unsold tickets. This he doe, not desire to do, nor do we desire that he should do it. The postponement is for a short time only, and as the possession ot the farms cannot be surrendered— beinc rented ont for tho present year, nor the rent collected until tho 1st of January next, it can make but little difference with thos-who are so fortunate as to win whether they succeed on the 1st of Septem ber. or the Sth dav of December. 1869.
