Forr.Tii Page- The Shipping Cist's Annual
Crop Statement.
TIic Colton Crop of ISttS OO.
It will ho seen there is a wide discrepancy be
tween the figures of the New York Shipping
List and the Charleston Courier. Wo suppose
the Courier is right.
A visit to Savannah this week enables us to
speak of the advancement of Georgia's Seaport
City. Of course, there is not now the life there
that exhibits Us elf in the midst of the busy sea
son, Tint still trade has opened fairly, and the
Bay looks ijuite lively. Many bnsiness men
aro still absent, but thoy are hnrrying home.
The decline in tho price of cotton this week de
presses tho factors considerably, but wo trust it
will soon touch l>ottom and then rebound.
Should it do *o, everything will movo along
briskly.
Wo observe many houses for business being
erected on the Bay, and in that pleasant portion
of the city near the Park are many new, splen
did and comfortable residences.
Everything, in fact, indicates that Savannah
is alive to her interests and constantly improves
—evincing tho fact that, should we bnvo another
fine seaport in Brunswick, thero will be ample
Jmsiness for all, and Savannah will ever be a
city of which Georgia may be prond.
Hox. Geo. H. Pexdleton, in response to r
call by n large number of his political friends,
made a short speech last Saturday, leaning
npon his crutches. He dissented from tho Re
publican assertion that tho Union was restored,
whilo Virginia, Mississippi and Texas are still
nnder military government, and denied that tho
great questions of liberty and nnion have been
solved. Ho opposed tho adoption of tho fif
teenth amendment bccauso it introduced a rad
ical, material chango in our system of govern
ment, and takes away from tho States, without
their consent, tho essential element of a self-
governing community, no reiterated his doc
trine of tho payment of bonds with greenbacks,
the abolishment of tho national banking sys
tem, and n rigid economy in pnblio affairs, so
ns to nid in redneing tho pnblio debt. -
Never Pear.—Somo of the newspapers are
talking about what tho planters shall do with
their money this year. Wo dovonlly hopo the
great body of oar planters wUl be able to pay
nil thoir debts, and have u comfortable surplus
left; lmt by the time they have bought and paid
for their corn and meat and guano and mules,
and n nico wnrdrobo for tho family, a comforta-
blo carriage for mother, fittod up tho house, re
plenished tho china—repaired the fences and
stables and pnt everything in first rate order the
halanco will not canso them many sleopless
nights.
F. W. Sims A Co.—Tho card of this old firm
of Savnnnnh Factors and Commission Merchants
will bo found in this issue. Thoy are well known
for their energy in business and thorough knowl
edge of everything pertaining to the trade in
cotton, and their ample means to meet the
wants of their customers. Ool. F. W. Sims re
turned on Monday from New York, in fine health
and working trim. Thoy are ready for all tho
business of thoir old friends and as many more
ns wish to give them a trial.
Gem. We M. Wadley, President of tho Cen
tral Railroad, who has keen spending tho sum
mer North, to rocupernto his system so long
suffering from a chronic disease, returned on
Monday to Savannah. Wo wero glad to learn
that ho was considerably improved, though tem
porarily worsted by his trip outward. Wo sup
pose that ho will at once assume control of the
business of the Road with his usual energy and
business tact, .
’Down to Fifteen and ct to Tuiuti-five.—
We heard a gentleman predict yesterday that
cotton would go down to fifteen cents daring tho
wintor, and then riso to thirty-five in the spring.
That would bo a lovely margin for buyers. Bnt
wo apprehend no such fluctuations. Tho crop
is too short—demand too eager—and everybody
knows that with any possible yield it must fall
far short of tho demands of spinners.
The Income Tax-fto Inf n—Hly,
The New York Herald, of the 128£*%fve8 a
table showing the amount of income tax per
capitum paid in most of the States. It is
made from the official retains of 18fi8, a nd dis
plays an extraordinary inequality. In Massa
chusetts, the tax amounted to $4.12 per head :
in Maine, 39 cents; in California, $5.31; in
Nevada. $17.77; in West Virginia, 30 cents;
Oregon, $ - . 00 ; New Hampshire, 7 Li cents ;
Vermont, 47 cents: Rhode Island. $2.8* : Con
necticut, $11.07 ; New York. $3.1*7 ; Pennsylva-
Tbe CoUoa Crop or Last Year.
The Charleston Courier of the the 14th. has
the following npon this interesting topic :
The mail yesterday afternoon brought the
New York Shipping List of Saturday, 11th inst..
containing its Annual Statement of the Cotton
Crop for the same period which our Statement
covers. The footing npof the Statement of the
Shipping List makes the total crop 2,200,.157
bales, which is 07,-1 2 bales below our total.
The footing of the statement of the Shipping
List was the snbject of general comment yester
day among cotton factors in their counting-
rooms, and on the street, it being almost uni-

nia, $1.10; Delaware, $1.1.7 : Maryland. $ 1.7.'.; i versally conceded that its total footing of the
Baldwin County.—Tho Millodgovillo Re
corder says : Tho valno cf property returned
to tho Tax Receiver for this year amounts
to $l,OS4,227. In 1887, $1,576,99!), a de
crease of $482,772. Is old Baldwin on tho
decline ? Next year we hopo for bettor things.
The amount returned in 1SG0, when all was
prosperity and pence, amounted to $3,321,382.
n loa, to the county by tho effects of war, of
$4,837,133.
Tuf. Cotton Crop.—A very experienced
planter who has been looking at tho crop in
Houston, says he has never seen n more perfect
failure in that county. Ho will pick a half less
than he expected, and in his opinion tho whole
cotton crop of Middle and Southwestern Georgia
will bo gathered by the last of October.
Florida Annexation.—In puisnanco to the
proceedings which have already transpired for
the annexation of West Florida to Alabama, tho
- Governor of Florida has already issued his
proclamation, ordering an election in the
counties of West Florida, to ascertain tho feel
ings of the people on the subject. Tho election
comes off on the 2d of November.
Kentucky, 02 cents; Missouri. 58 cents; Ohio,
82 cents; Indiana, -43 cents; Illinois, $1.19;
Michigan, 96 cents : Wisconsin, 18 cents; Iowa,
41 cents; Minnesota, 58 cents; Kansas, 57
cents; showing an inequality which cannot be
tho result of tho difference of personal income.
Win, the Telegraph do ns the favor to pub
lish tho articlo from the Chronicle and Sentinel
from which it derived its statement that we,
“prononneo the committee funetua officio, and
challenge their right to meet, and question tho
occasion.—Chronicle and Sentind, 14th.
We wonld cheerfully publish that article, if
we had it, inasmuch os we have not the smallest
desire to pnt the Chronicle and Sentinel in any
position it does not wish to occnpy. Onr para
graph spoke of both the Augusta papers, and
we perhaps erred in attributing to both a posi
tion which was in part only applicable to one.
Wo find the Colnmbns Sun of tho 14tb, has this
upon the snbject:
Some of the Press of the Stato assume the
ground that tho Committee is fundue officio,
among them the Chronicle and Sentinel, of
which Gen. Wright, one of the members of the
Commilteo, is the editor.
In another animadversion in the Chronicle of
the same date, we find the following:
It has been freqnently asserted of late, in onr
bearing, that the editor of the Teleobaph fa
vored the acceptance of the original Recon
struction Act of Congress, and that he advised
the adoption of that policy by tho people of tho
State. Wo respectfully ask whether this be
trne. and if so whether the Teixorafs thinks.
1 the rejection of that policy by the Democratic
party was wise and proper ?
Unlike the Telegraph, the Chronicle and
Sentinel has “invested something in personal
hatred" toward those who have labored for tho
destruction of the State Government and the
degradation of onr people, and wo shall nevor
see the day in which wo can forgive and frater-
nizo with those who songht to betray and rnin
ns.
Well it is not true. We failed like most peo
ple, in discerning the signs of tho times. But
if we had known, in 1865, that tho ultra Radi
cals in Congress would have taken advantage of
our hesitation and delay to work np their party
to imposing negro saffrago and all the other
hard conditions we have since been compelled
] to accept, npon tho South, we would have en
treated the peoplo to close up that controversy
at once, on almost any terms, which would then
have been demanded of ns.
Finally, wo hope to see the day yet, when
the people will return to Constitutional Gov
ernment, and pnnish the Radical party for their
sins and oppressions; and this hope we in-'
dnlgo without personal malice or any desire
to make onr paper the vehicle of that sentiment
Letter from .Secretary Lewis.
Office Geo roi a State Agmcttltceal 8oom , >
Macon, Ga., September 15, 1869. >
Dear iSir : Having heard much said, and
seen no little written, about the cotton patch
of Mr. Gustin, near this city, and having, in
common with others the curiosity to sec it, the
favorable opportunity was presented when Col.
DnBignon called at this office on the 11th inst,
and expressed tho desire to gratify a similar cu
riosity. A call was made on Mr. J. V. Grier,
whose kind liberality keeps n conveyance at all
times st the service of tho Secretary, withont
charge, for a conveyance, and in a very short timo
the CoL and the Secretary were on the field of
observation.
CoL DnBignon embodiod tho result of his ob
servation, in the remark, that there was no mis
take akont the fact that hero was a piece of cot
ton that throngh all tho vicissitudes of weather
and drought had gone on to inability and tho
development of a perfect plant withont tho loss
of a form or boll, and the fact was that he was
determined to understand how the thing teat
done. I am exactly in the samo fix with CoL Dn
Bignon.
I have only to add, Mr. Editor, that in my
humble judgment tho experiment of Mr. Gas-
tin goes a step or two in advance of any thing
yet reported towards developing the great ulti
matum of cotton culture, to-wit: how much
cotton oan be raised to the acre, and what is the
least cost of labor and expenses which will
achieve it.
Permit one word more, and that is that tho sur
face culture of Mr. Dickson, who I will ngreo
is entitled to tho nom de plume of tho Napoleon
of tho cotton field, has been pushed to extremes,
and the shriveled cotton bolls and dried leaves
of thousands of acres of dnmoged cotton fields
attest too tmly and too sadly this truth.
As ono of tho Vice Presidents of the Stalo
Society, I feel sure you aro interested in all such
facts as the above. Very respoctfnly,
D. W. Lewis.

gia Agricultural Society.
The Cession oi Culm.
‘'■Che Washington correspondent of the Lonis-
vilie Courier-Journal says, on the llth, that a
IotteiAras received from Madrid, from a well
posted American tourist, who says that the prop
osition made throngh special agent Forbes and
Gen. Sickles for tho sale of Cuba to tho Cubans
was substantially rejected soon after it was
mado known to Regent Serrano, bat Sickles has
ever since been endeavoring to havo the matter
again considered in another shape, and has par
tially succeeded. This he has followed np by
representations that public sentiment has grown
so rapidly in this country in favor of the recog
nition of the independence of Caba that such
recognition will soon follow, unless the island is
disposed of by Spain for a consideration. This
gentleman adds, however, that there is not one
Spanish official in favor of the cession.

Lift} Insurance in Great Britain.
There is something like a panic amongst the
holders of insurance policies in England. The
sadden fall of one of the largest of the compa
nies and tho terrible anxiety and distress it has
occasioned, is one of the chief events of tho
dull season, and one natural result of the dis
cussion is tho quick growth of suspicion as to
other societies. It is allowed that unlike most
business, insurance may be reduced to a cer
tainty and be so conducted that no accident
within the calculation of ordinary badness men
can, by possibility, affect the solvency of the
company. Yet here is a company in which 22,-
800 persons have invested the savings of a life
for the protection of their wives and children,
suspending payment! If many other companies
follow in the same route, it will not surprise ns
if life insurance falls into the bauds of the State.
Already one authority—a little given to senti
ment, it is true—exclaims, “Compulsory life in
surance in proportion to income, guaranteed
and controlled by the State—there ono day will
be fonnd tho substitute for all forms of direct
taxation.”

CoLrxnsrs, as we see by the Enquirer, was
blessed with a delightful shower yesterday even
ing. That is more than Macon can say for her
self. Bnt for the past few days tho clouds have
threatened a storm.
Verbal reports from Southwestern Georgia
lead us to believe that the cotton crop will be
ranch shorter than is generally believed. We
shall not be surprised to hear that the great
body of the planters will themselves be surprised
at the suddenness with which they will come to
the end of their picking.
Low Far*.—The railroad throngh fare from
New York to Chicago is to be reduced to ten
dollars. Tho distance is, we believe, about
twelve hundred miles.
The Savannah Republican, of Sunday, says
that tho wholesale merchants of that city have
already sold more goods during the past week
than they had sold np to Christmas day during
the last season.

A Lively Jnslicc in Louisiana
The Planters’ Banner tells of a lively occur
rence in ot Mary's Parish, displaying the vigor
and learning of a negro Justice of the Peace,
one John Fields. Field issued a warrant and
placed it in the hands of a negro. The docu
ment read as follows :
“This. is. to citte. fy. that i. the undarcincL
Jnstis. of. the. Peace. O Pint, and in Ponr.
John.. A Star, to. A-rest, the body, of Henre
Evens, and, Bring, hit, Be-four, me John Fields
J Peace. Word 4 (S. M.)”
Evans treated the missive with contempt, and
thereupon, Fields, with a posse of twelve ne
groes, surrounded Evans’ house at midnight
and opened fire npon it. The house was rid
dled with balls, but fortunately the assailants
shot too high and none of the family were hurt.
As soon as Evans could find his gun and am
munition, in the dark, he returned the fire with
some effect, nnd the party took French leave;
but upon being arrested next day it was found
to have been a judicial proceeding in form and
manner as statod.
From Brunswick.
The Seaport Appeal of the 11 th says the old
road bed of the Brunswick & Albany Road has
been cleared and graded for thirty miles from
Brunswick. Some culverts and bridges com
pleted, cross-ties delivered for seven miles and
within a few weeks will be delivered for the
whole distance. Six platform cars have been
received, and a locomotive was expected on that
day. Eleven hundred tons of railroad iron
havo been shipped, and the work is going for
ward with all possible dispatch.
