The State r»lr-Ia»1H^ fioraH. The anxiety manifested l>y the Augusts Chronicle and Sentinel, lest the managers of the Stn'e Fair should compromise themselves and the State of Georgia by some hasty, ill-con sidercsl. indecorous or unbecoming action in re spect to inviting Northern guests, entitles the hitter to the lienefit of his opinions, remon strances and protests. 'We therefore copy a considerable portion of an article upon the sub ject v.hich tppt .rs in that paper of the 2.7th in stant : We are not so anxious to h ivo t’.-tm come ms io approve the proposition made by Bullock to Ktatr Fair—Additional I’reinloms.

We fail to perceive any reason why these enemies of the State and her people ahonld receive such distin- best to be a faithful citizen both of the United States and of Georgia. Gov. Bullock; is Governor of Georgia by no consent of ours; hut while occupying that ex alted position, if nothing tUe did, our respect for Georgia would require us to treat him with the consideration due his exalted position, and we should be sorry to believe that a single mem ber of the Board of Management would ccra- promit himself or the State Agricultural Society by conduct or language to the Governor of Georgia unbefitting the dignity of the officer or the Slate.

With the rapid improvement in Southern ag riculture, a heavy demand is arising for im proved agricultural implements — a demand which will certainly grow and increaso pan patni with the demand for fertilizers, the bene, fit of which they nro needed to supplement and to Insure. Every body feels it to bo wasteful to expend large sums of money in guanoes and superphosphates upon land which lisa been merely scratched over to tho depth of three or four inches, and which, consequently, give* no depth of looso and disintegrated soil for the free extension of the fibrous too(r of the plant —for the absorption and retention of stores of moistnro, or even for the retention of the soil and manure themselves upon hill-sides, where, with light plowing, they are liable to be washed away by heavy rains. The consequence is that almost every pur chase of commercial manure insures better cul tivation of the land to which it is applied, and with this better cnltivation arises the demand for improved agricultural implements to effort this end with proper economy. Wo hope the exhibition of first class farming tools of ovory description at tho Statu Fair in Macon, will bo so comprehensive, as to post all our peoplo fully in (ho latest improvements and tho most advanced ideas of American Agricul ture every whore. But why should we in tho South send abroad our money for tho pnrclmso of the moat effect ive farming tools? A friend in another conDty writing privately to ns upon the subject, says : “This branch of manufacturing (in the North and West) is now malting profits varying from fifty to one hundred per cent. I myself am pay ing to a firm in Now York eight dollars for a plough, the prime cost of which is only three dollars. This plough is the universal cotton sweop of the Southern States, and from one to two millions’ worth aro used annually, in every conceivable form for cultivating the fields of tho cotton States.” “I am paying n firm in Baltimore six dollars for a plough that they charged me only three dollars for before the war, and the prime cost of which is only two dollars now." Now, who can donbt that a very successful bnsine-", in tho manufactnro of the best class of agricultural implements is at the command of anybody who will establish such an enterprise on a proper foundation of skill and capital ?— Labor is chenper here than in the Northern States, and the Inmber, which is the principal material required, does not cost half os much, while the iron and castings would probably cost very little more. The protee 'ion offered to Sonth- om manufacturers of such goods in freights alone would afford a considerable profit—for tho goods aro bulky and the freights necessarily high. Why, then,should not some portion of our earn ings find profitable employment in a complete, well-appointed manufactory of agricultural im plcmeuts provided with everything necessary to tnrn out ns tasteful and substantial work ns can be procured anywhere? The common fault with farming implements made in the South, is their roughness and coarseness. But with pro per appliances and skilled workmen thoso ob jections can all bo removed, and largo sums saved to our section and profitable employment furnished our own people, by a little well di. rected investment of capital and enterprise. Let somo energetic Georgians select some central point accessible by railway to all parts of the State, raise capital, build workshops, buy ma chinery and set the enterprise in motion. Peeler Cotton. Mr. G. L. Davis brings us some handsomo specimens of Peeler cotton stalks. Ono is from Mr. H. T. Johnson’s place—a poor sand ridgi being a stalk from four acres of cotton which have yielded, so far, six thousand nine hundred pounds of seed cotton. This cotton which had succumbed to tho drought, is now beginning to put out an abundant top crop of forms and flowers—showing what it would have done with timely rain. Also t wo st alks from tho plantation of his son, A. J. Davis, on the Tobesofkeo. These grew on bottom land and bolls are just be ginning to open. They are so numerous it Is not worth while to count them. All are fine stalks from five to six feet high. An Awful Gold Story Tho Rome Commercial of Sunday speaking of the gold diggings in Bartow county and of the Gill mines, owned by a Boston company, says that discoveries will be exhibited that will as lonish all the searchers after mineral wealth and nothing the like whereof has ever bee heard on the American continent. “Some of our most truthful citizens have seen specimens of the ore and bear witness to the great value of it. It is represented that one ton of the ore, recently taken from the shafts, has been tested and examined, and trill yield twenty thovx. ind deHart!” Printers' Union.—The fraternity have been stirred up by our incidental remarks upon Trades Unions to answer, and wo will give thei champion a bearing to-morrow, but cannot dulge a controversy, because we have very little space. We never have any quarrels with the printers because we like them too well, and don’t believe in family quarrels—anyway. But nevertheless, we have a private opinion which we never express in public—to-wit: that their Printers' Union is one of the grandest despotisms on earth. Some of these nights when they go home to supper, and are told by the good wife that the negro women have formed a Union and agreed that nobody shall go out to service who don t belong to it—that neither master nor mistress shall fix wages, employ, or discharge— that mistress shall not ply the broom, or set the table, or do any work about the house, or allow her children to do it, and shall not be permitted to nse i “little nigger for that purpose," except one to every ten Union servants—when thev see this and a good deal more of the same kind stuff, they will then begin to comprehend that the powers they claim and exercise, as a high prerogative, would stop the wheels of society a general application to business and labor in ramifications. gnished consideration. We would much prefer that the five or ten thonsand dollars which it would cost the State, should be spent in trans porting free of charge the thonsands of worthy citizens of upper Georgia who have been, by tho effort* of these “distinguished" Radicals, plundered of their property, and who are now loo poor to pay their own expenses to Macon. If the invitation* to these lesding Radicals p been prompted by a desire on the part of State Fair officials to conciliate the wraih and appease the vengeance of the Radical mind, wo think tho conduct of the Governor of Iowa regard to the St. Louis Convention chows quite conclusively that they have made a great mistake. These Radicals/ despite the 'cry of peace, which is always on their lips, are as bitter their animosities, and as malignant in their slings toward the South to-day as at any time daring the war. If tho Committee think, they can bny them up by such sycophantic attentions, they nro sadly ignorant of their character.— They will accept your inntation. participate in yonr social gatherings, partake of your hospitali ties, break bread at yonr board, tickle yon with their blarney, and then return to their homes, ridicule yonr pretensions, scoff at yonr good cheer, and find new reasons for continuing their conrse of persecution and injustice. We earnestly inqnire of the StataFair officials if, under the existing state of feeling in tho North toward the South, it wonld not bo better to attempt no particular parade over tho Radi cal Congressmen and Government officials. We do not do dre that any rudeness should be shown them. If they have already been invited the rules of genteel Southern society should not be violated. They should be treated in every re spect as all tbe other invited guests are treated. Bnt we insist that no attempt be made to ahow them special consideration or particular honors. In regard to the proposition made by Bullock and endorsed by one of the Vioe Presidents of tho nociety and the editor of a leading press in Macon, we enter onr earnest protest. We seo in it an attempt on the part of Bullock to secure for himself the notice and association of gen tlemen—to pnt himself prominently forward at tho Fair, and to secure a certain degree of re spectability by his quasi official oonncction with the Fair. We oppose tho proposition further because, if carried out. many Northern and Western gentlemen wonld he induced to come to the Fair in that way. and we are not willing that they should he forced into association in any way with Bollock. It would be an insult to onr Northern friends to place them nnder the care and subject them to the intimate association oi sneh a man. Bollock is in no manner, nor in no sense, the representative of Georgia intellect, sentiment or honor. Ho is simply the prema ture accident or crons resulting from disgusting political wedlock between ignorant negroes and disreputable whites. We have nqt been advised whether Bollock’s proposition, made f6 Col. Clisby, has been con sidernd or finally acted npon. We know that Col. Clisby, who is a Vice President of the so ciety. and a gentleman of inflnenoe with tho committee, approves it That we may do this gentleman no injnstice we copy the following from one of his letters to the Tjeltobsph while on the recent press excursion. Tbe italics sre ottr own: Ooternor Bullock conversed with me to-night npon onr approaching State Fair in Macon. He is exceedingly snxions not only that it *h*U be in every respect worthy of the State, bnt thst it shall secure the attention and attendance of em inent men from other States. He, therefore, proposed to me, <u one of the Vice President*. that if tho Directory should think proper, and wonld invite m sufficient number, say one hun dred mrmlx rs of Congress and others, he would tend a train to Lynchburg, Va., nnder the di rection of Col. Halbert, to take the party to Macon. lie, him*e>f mould receive them at the State line, and proceed trilh them to .Vacon. The train cannot go farther North than Lyncn- bnrg. because the gnsge of the road there takes the Northern standard, four feet eight inches, while onr roads are five feet. I call attention of the President, the Execntive Committee and tbe people of Macon to thi* liberal projsorition. T eoneur with the Gorernor in the opinion that this movement might effect very aalntary re sults." (Italics interjected by the Chronicle ml Sentinel.] Win the Secretary of the Society or Col. Clis by inform the people whether the Society has adopted the proposition of Bullock? In answer to this inquiry we have to say: that the more honorary position of Vice Presi dent conferred on the person named, gave him no authority in the management of the Fair. J hat is vested solely in an Executive Committee of thirty intelligent and honorable gentlemen— able to take care of their own dignity and that of the State. They will meet on the 7th proxi mo. and we trust and believe they will not hesi tate to accept the proposition of the Governor, which we understood to be made for no other purpose than in tho interests of the grand ob jects of the Fair. A member of tho Board has addressed ns the following remarks npon tbe general subject matter of the Chronicle and Sentinel’s editorial: “The policy contemplated by these invitations was open and avowed in tbe face of them. It was to conciliate, it was to counteract the im pressions of Northern people thnt the Sonth was still hostile to the Union—that life and liberty were not safe here—that we were unjust to the freedmen—that we were intolerant of all North' cm men good or bad. Having anch a policy, it was most important for the end in view, that those men who were deemed especially unrelenting and bitter against the Sonth, would come and see for themselves what was the actual state of the case. The invi tations wore given with tho confident belief that those who would come wonld so bear themselves as to be treated os gentlemen hy those claiming to be gentlemen. If the good inflnences which might result from such intercourse between leading men North and Sonth is lost, it will be a loss to be felt when these Northern men, whoso opinions and feeling were to be modified by the look into affairs as tljey actually existed, shall meet in the next session of Congress with absolute power over us in their hands and find themselves still treated and regarded by the Sonth as thieves and hypocrites and liars. If the good influence is lost it will be mainly attributable to the unnecessary interference of newspapers in a matter which was in perfectly safe hands. “As to the proposition of Col. Hnlbert, or Gov. Bullock, to send a special train to Lvchbnrg, to convey invited guests to Macon, I do no not hesitate to say that so far as the question de pends npon mo the proposition will certainly be accepted with the pride and pleasure that every Georgian ought to feel when it is remembered that after all the disasters through which the State has had to pass, she still has a vitality and energy and aim for the future which enables her to do what no other State can do—dart a train of cars, if need be, half across a continent to bring inTited guests to a festival within onr borders.” We do not see that anything need be added to what onr friend has so forcibly written. The views which actuate the Telegraph seem to dif fer essentially from those entertained by the Chronicle & SentioeL We are for peace, and in favor of adopting every reasonable and honor able measure to seenre it. We shall never wil lingly or knowingly add a single ember to the decaying fire of sectional strife, and having ac cepted the fate of war, and taken the oath of al legiance to the United States government, we mean to stand by if in good faith and do onr From Liverpool. BIHTISH GOODS AT THE PAIR.—FOREIGN SHIPMENTS OP COTTON—ENGLISH PRICE OP MONET. Cot I). IK Lewie, Secretary State Agricultural Society, of Georgia, Macon, Ga : Dear Sir—I have yonr favor of 20th August (enclosing commission) and note contents. Not hearing from you on my first arrival here, I con cluded that you had given np the idea of ap- poing mo agent in Europe and took no farther steps in the matter. Now I fear it is too late to get sneh a display of European goods as I wonld like to do, bnt I will do my best, devoting my attention (as yon request) particularly to Agri cultural implements, seeds, etc. I like yonr idea of making the “Georgia State Agricultural Society” an agency through which members and others can order directly from the producers and manufacturers, and I would not be surprised if this would be tbe great inaugu ration of “Direct Trade.” Why could not the members of yonr society form themselves into a great “Planters’ Supply Association” and ship their cotton through anagent appointed by them selves, the agent drawing for sneh amounts as they might require for immediate wants. I re ceive the cotton here, sell it to the best advan tage nnd return the proceeds either in supplies or hard rath ? The advantage of sneh an arrangement would be, that, shonld tho market decline, money to meet the drafts conld be got here, on security of the Cotton or bill of lading for the Cotton, at 2} per cent, a year instead of 2] per cent, a month. Borrowers in Georgia have to pay, of conrse, the Agents commissions and mine; al though very handsome to each of ns, they would be a mere nothing compared to the profits Cot ton has to pay in passing through so many bands. I wish yon would give this ides your serious attention and see if some such project cannot be carried out. Yon will hear from me again when I sea what can be done in the way of con tributions to the Society Fair. Yonrs very truly, J. S. Hutton, Agent G. S. Agricultural Society, in Europe.

Running Freight Trains on Sunday.—This is prohibited in Georgia, as will bo seen by the following extract from the Code : “If any freight train shall be run on any rail road in this State on tbe Sabbath day (known as Sunday) tbe superintendent of the transporta tion of such railroad company, or tbe officer* having charge of that department of the busi ness of the railroad, shall be liable toindictment for a misdemeanor in each oonnty through which such train shall pass: and on conviction shall be fined for each offense a sum not exceed ing five hnndred dollars. On such trials it shall not be necessary to allege or prove the names of the employees engaged on such train, but the simple fact of the train being run. The de fendant may justify himself by proof that sneh employees acted in direct violation of the or ders and rule* of defendant” Labor on Sunday is also forbidden nnder heavy penalties. A Remarkable Old Man.—Mark Twain thus describes, in the Buffalo Express, a remarkable citizen of that place : “John Wagner, the old est man in Buffalo—-one hundred and fonr years —recently walked a mile and a half in two weeks. He is as cheerful and bright as any of those other old men thst charge around so in the newspapers, and is in every way as remark able. Last November he walked five blocks in a rain storm, without any shelter but an um brella, and cast his vote for Grant remarking that he had voted for forty-seven Presidents— which was a lie. His second crop of rich brown hair arrived from New York yesterday, and he has a new set of teeth coming from Philadel phia. He is to be married next week to a girl of one hnndred and two years old, who still takes in washing. They have been engaged eighty years, bnt their parents persistently re fused to consent until three days ago. Hobbiblx Octbaok.—On last Friday a yonng lady named Jennie Conley, residing near Den mark, Ark., was knocked insensible in her house hy a negro named Jeff. Johnson, who in flicted several blows npon her head with on iron bar, then carried her to the woods and ravished her. The negro has been arrested and lodged in jail. He was pardoned out of the peniten tiary two years ago. Miss Conley is not ex pected to recover. In llcmorinm of F. A. Duke. Fzw Lodge, No. 79, F. A. M., \ Buena Vista, Ga., September 15,1869.) "In the midst of life we are in death”—a truth declared by revelation and abundantly sustained by overy day observation. In no instance do we more folly realize this announcement than in the death of onr much esteemed and beloved brother, FRAN CIS A. DUKE. For years he filled the position of J. D., and so faithful was he in the discharge of his duties, so prompt in his attendance upon each communication, that if by unavoidable circumstances his place was filled by appointment, we were wont to inqnire the cause of his absence. Brother Duke was one who understood the nature of his Masonic obligation, and with that fidelity which should mark the history of overy member of our mystical order, suffered no trivial hindrance to prevent,.him from yielding obedience to its de mands. In his life he exemplified its teachings, and by his devotion and consistency he jnstlv won the esteem and confidence of his brethren. It is hard to feel thst such an one baa been re moved ; bnt recognizing God in all we teach as a Being of infinite power and wisdom, we can bnt bow submissively to his behest and say, “ Thy will be done.” Brother Duke, in his untiring devotion to the cause, has left ns a lesson worthy of emulation. May we brethren cherish his memory and follow his example. Beeolved, That we deeply lament the death of Bro. Duke. Resolved, That in his death the community has lost a good citizen, the fraternity a faithful and much beloved brother, and his wife and children a husband and father of whom they might well have been proud. Resolved, That wo tender to the bereaved family our heartfelt sympathy, and entertain the hope that an all-wise Providence will prove a friend that “ eticketh closer than a brother.” Resolved, That a blank leaf be appropriated to the name of our departed brother; that a copy of this preamble and these resolutions be furnished his family, and that we wear the usual badge of mourning for thirty days. Resolved, That the Secretary forward a copy of this preamble and these resolutions to the Macon Telegrath for publication. . B. B. HINTON. ) WM. M. BLOWN, V Committee. O. J.
