Morality of Masonry.
Editort Telegraph : Masonry doe* not profess
w b* a aobctUnto for Chriatianity, nor to teach
with antbority lta distinctive doctrines. It is
oot its offlee to nnfold the fundamental facta of
f^omption, to incnlcate the necessity of regen-
, ration aa a spiritual change, or to appeal to the
rttnrrection of the dead and the retributions of
an eternal sUte aa potential and thrilling mo-
tires to influence the conduct of those who
bare been initiated into its magnificent myste-
rid. It is true that in its sublime ceremonial
tbore may be gathered frequent hints in relation
tatMae grand articles of the Christian faith,
'*lot the pofnt we Insist upon Vihal they-dortot-
form an essential part of the Masonic system
tad were never intended to be taught scientific,
ally or practically by the fraternity of Masons.
We are sun that the great principles of na
tural religion lie at the foundation of Free
Masonry; such as the eternal existence and
righteous government of God and the moral
character and immortal destiny of man, bnt as
to (be peculiar doctrines of revealed religion it
baa no commisaion from Heaven to expound or
enforce them. If a man wishes to understand
tho plan of salvation he must have recourse to
tho .acred scriptures and not to tho tenets and
traditions of the ancient ordor—if he desires to
ditebarge all bis duties to God he must seek
higher sids than are found in aMasonio Lodge,
and if he would wear a golden crown in the
dues ho must trust in a greater than Solomon
toaavebim. The brightest Mason has aa much
need for the benefits of the atonement as any
other person, and he who expects to enter
Heaven ou the mere basis of the social and
moral virtues will find himself dreadfully de
ceived when it is too late for repentance. That
brother who boldly asserts, ‘‘The Lodge is a
good enough ebureh for me,” is utterly igno
rant of the principles and purposes of the in-
atitution to whieb be belongs, and is also in a
state of deplorable ignoranoe in reference to
the true nature and design of the Christian re
ligion.
It is no compliment to masonry to impute to
it skat it does not propose to teach or to do.
By attempting to raise it to the sphere of the
supernatural and spiritual, ita inherent beauty
and power are destroyed, and it is given as a
prey to the fierce waves of popular prejudice.
It ia preeminently a charitable institution and
therefore shrinks from the ides of invading the
rights and assuming the task of other important
institutions. Its very genius as well as its re-
pec ted lessons forbid any interference with the
affairs of the family, churoh or State. All it
aaka is to do its own work in ita own way. And
it baa been by standing aloof from all other as
sociations and by pursuing quietly its own pe
culiar miaaion, that it has won the most brilliant
r pub-

Axzzicra, Sept 16, I8C9.
Editors Teiogropk: ‘ ‘Mama, Chaney’s hens
all died but one and he is a rooster," said my
little five year old boy yesterday—shows Mile
sian descent very plainly, eh! This remark was
predicated upon the decease of the negroes'
poultry, which is applicable to the state of
things on my place and those of several neigh-
hors. Peafowls topple /rom the treetops, and
prostrate in the dust in the morning lies this
gorgeous bird of the barn-yard. Guineas fat
and playfnl in the evening, are dead by the
disease in tho morning. We have lost a hundred
mors or less of all denominations of domestic
fovla
Drought is yet heavy on us. Cabbages with
stalks a foot or more high bear tho same pro
portion as the palmetto of Florida—a little
branch of crisped leaves at the top. Cotton
open to the top with au occasional pendant
limb with nnopen bolls. lied lands, which were
most promising in Jnne, have now done. Gray
lands are not so bad, as the tap root reaches far
ther from the power of tho hot sun. Some dis-
.uicts of a mil. wide will present a better record
whero'lho late rains have fallen. Potatoes and
peas are generally ent off—late com for the
table also.
Mr. Editor, I liko yonr argument for the can-
tinuation of low rates for travel—especially ia it
desirable to bo continued until after the Grand
Fair in Macon on tho IGth of November. One
thousand moro people from this section of the
State will go who will remain at home if the pres
ent rates are doubled. This thousand are of the
one class which embraces ns all in this section
—the poor good livers.
The staple has ceased to move over onr dust-
skirted highways, owing to the deeline. If pri-
ces had continued fair, all would have eome for
ward by the 1st of November. We have all
styles of weather bnt wet—windy, dry, cool, hot,
Indian summer—Fall suits somewhat popular in
the swamps and woods.
The Je wish religion in regard to meata should
grow popular au> grain and all farinaciona
crop* abort. Hogs naturally short by reason of
the freedman’s gnn, will be shorter by reason of
tho failure of those crops upon which farmers
mostly depend to start their pork crop.
Mr. Editor, we have grown qniet on the comet
and hope yonr nerves are not disordered by the
pie into which they were thrown at tha tunnel on
tho occasion of tha lata editorial excursion. By
the way, when wc get onr railroad finished and
we can do it at little or no eott to ourtelcet per-
tonailg, we will give an ilinstrmtion of tha cotton
wealth of Southwestern Georgia to the editorial
corps of the State.

consists in the pure and snblime morality in-
enleated in ita creed, and in the beautiful chari
ties which it sends forth in silent and eaaaeleaa
streams into the bosom of bereaved and suffer
ing humanity, and especially to dry the orphan's
tears and to esnse the widow's heart to sing for
joy. Its highest ideal is tho moral, as ia man
ifest to every student of the mystic lore, whilst
tho physical and (esthetic are merely auxiliary.
It proceeds on the fundamental hypothesis of
the brotherhood of the race, and consequently,
contemplating men in the relations of brothers,
its ofiloe U to explain and enfome that whole
class of dnties and obligations growing out of
those relations. Love, poaoc, purity, honesty,
tmth and, above all, charity, are somo of the
things which Masons are to strictly observe in
their intercourse with each other and with the
world. Tho four cardinal virtues of Masonry
aro temperance, fortitude, prudence and justice,
and these vital virtues are continually taught
with a didaetie distinctness and a dramatic im
pressiveness which cannot fail to affect the feel
ings and influence the oonductof the Graft. In
Maaonio symbolism they have a far greater
breadth and comprehensiveness of meaning,
than is attributed to them in popular par
lance, or than the Homans attached to them.
In their broadest import theyreqnire the
strictest temperance in all things pertaining to
this life, a manly patience and nbmission un
der the advene dealings of Divine Providence,
the regulation of onr passions and actions in
accordance with the laws of reason and sober
reflection, and a cordial conformity to tho
golden rule, uhattonrr ge Mould that men
fhoutd do unto you, do ge eren »o unto them.
Nowit ia obvious that here ia a standard of
moral excellence immeasurably higher and
purer than those vague and vulgar notions of
morality which obtain among the mass of man
kind. He whose charaeterla east in the mold
of this pure and lofty model, has attained the
highest degree of perfection of which fallen
humanity is capable apart from the grace of
God.
A Mason, therefore, who lives up to his
priyifrgea and obligations occupies a moral
eminence which eannot fail to command the
admiration of tha world. Tho Ten Command
ments are his grand authoritative textbook,
and in the aeoona table of the moral law, espe
cially, be will find a complete catalogue of the
things which ore commanded and forbidden
him.
He who presumes to profane the great and
dreadful name of Jehovah, wboia addicted to
glnttonny and intemperance, who treats his pa
tents with ingratitude and dishonor, who is
Rnilty uf mnrder in thought, word or deed, who
blackens his neighbor's chaiaoter and covets his
, - neighbor's wife or wordly possessions, is not to
K be considered s consistent and worthy member
of the Maaonio Fraternity. We are more than
willing to make ample allowances for those in
firmities and errors which ore inseparable from
human nature in its present condition (for wo
freely confess onr own frequent dereliction); bnt
when we undertake an exposition of the princi
ples and obligations of Masonry, we are bonnd
to state clearly and frankly what it is and what it
tequiret, apart from the prejudices of its enemies
tod the inconsistencies of its friends. Wo believe
the institution is destined to such a high moral
elevation, when all willful offenders will bo
dealt with according their dcserta; and when
Uu* glorious Millennium of Masonry d&vrn
°a the world, its moral beauties will shine with
a purity and lustre sufficient to win the highest
encomiums of all the wise and the good.

Jama' Tww Oottox.—The Greenville Times,
of August 21, thus describes this new species of
cotton:
Hus variety of cotton, which is to give fame
tod fortune to ita discoverer, if it shall stand
tbs last of successful experiment, has balls con-
uderably larger than ordinary cotton, and a
•tspie longer than the Peeler. One striking pe-
tolurity of this variety consists in the fact that
•he stalks have no limbs. The cotton breaks
out in clusters from the stalk, and sometimes
there are from seven to ten bolls in one cluster.
Mr. James is oonfident that he can gather four
t -h s from one acre of this cotton. He has no
***d to spare, as he had bnt thirteen rows
Pjtoted; but from thrse he intends to select the
h**t teed, 2nd, next year, if his cotton proves
■p be as good as he thinks it will, ho will intro
duce tho seed.

The Slate Fair la Macon—Important
QncHtion.
Editort Telegraph: Noticing that yon take a
lively interest in the approaching State Fair, to
be held in yonr city, aa well as everything else
that tends to the welfare of the people at large,
I hope I will not obtrude by asking a few ques
tions, with tho request that yon answer them.
It is understood that all of the rooms at the dif
ferent hotels are taken for fair week. There
are thousands of people situated like the wri
ter—they have not a single acquaintance in tha
city. Many who have acquaintances and friends
there will stay away rather than pnt them to
additional trouble and expense, when they will
likely bo crowded by others who aro lass
thoughtful. There aro thousands along the
different lines of Railroad who will not go for
these reasons. Now for the questions:
Will the different railroad companies run spe
cial extra trains for that week. Take one rail
road (the Southwestern), for instance, can they
not—Mill they not—ran a train to arrive in Ma-
oon, my at 9 o'clock u v. and leave again at 4
or S r. or., thus allowing persons living any
where between the different termini of tha road
to visit the Fair and return to their homes at
night? And would it not be to the.intereat of
the railroads to sell return and season tickets at
half, or even leas rates ? There are many living
within fifty miles of the city who will go every
day and take their fatr^ilien, if snch reasonable
arrangements can be made. Without it, they
most stay at home. It would not be out of the
proper line of business for tbo Executive Com
mittee to perfect snch a scheme. The editors
will, of oonrse, stir all parties np to do their
whole duty, and thus assist in contributing to
wards making it an entire success.

Colton Culture.
From (A, Bluff Cilr Timer.) *
lit has been said, and truly, we believe, that
we aro in the primer of cotton culture. As for
ourselves, we profess great ignorance, bnt hav
ing closely observed, during the last year, the
experiments of deep and shallow culture, wo
must conclude, in the faoe of facts, that dorp
culture as well deep preparation, is essential.
To subsoil yonr land thoroughly In its prepara
tion for tho seed, it ia undoubtedly necessary.
And that it is necessary that this land should be
kept thoroughly pulverized daring tho growth
of the plant, is, we believe, philosophically trno.
On the principle of capillary attraction, the
moisture which is always in the soil, if we go
deep enongh for it, seeks the surface. Dew, as
all know, ia formed by contact with the earth
of a warmer current of air. It not infrequent
ly happens that tho highwayon which you travel
ia dry and dusty, while the adjacent fields are
damp with the dew which has formed during
the night, attributable to the fact that the field
being pulverized and porous, on this same prin
ciple of capillary attraction draws the moisture
to the surface while the road bed is hard and
compact, and, therefore, uninfluenced in this
way.
To ns it seems then, that the great object of
the planter should be to keep np this communi
cation with the surface and the moisture below.
If his land is hard and compact, it should be
loosened. Bnt if from the nature of the soil it
remains loose from its first preparation, then
this deep plowing may be unnecessary. He is
the physician, his land the patient, and should
be treated according to its symptoms. Now in
opposition to this theory, it is said that deep
culture will break the lateral roots and injure
the plant.
Bnt we have within the last day or two seen
the experimental acre of Mr. Gustin, near Ma
con, Gra., which is a wonderful refutation of this
theory. 'Whilo vegetation all around him is
parched and destroyed with rust, his acre, to
day, is as vigorous and full of blooms as at any
former period, and his stalks are crowded and
broken with grown bolls from bottom to top.
Yet he has cultivated this cotton the year round
with the subsoil lifter and a horse hoe, or more
properly an old fashioned harrow. If it be said
that thero was a difference in the soil, the time
of planting or the fertilizers used, it cannot be
said that his plants have been injured by deep
ploughing. If they are not injured by this treat
ment, it cannot be urged as a general objection,
and therefore wo conclude that his experiment
in this particular is conclusive and overwhelm
ing. In the proper culture of onr lands consists
the increased prosperity of onr people, and we
have thus written with the object of doing what
little we may in directing attention to these im
portant experiments.
