Ricumosk, Texas, October 4th, I8C9,
Editor! Telegraph ; Two attacks of fever—
one bihons, succeeded by intermittent—is apol
ogy sufficient for a silence that was becoming
somewhat protracted. Mercury and quinine are,
good in their places, but “ they are no doubt
not very fillin',” and are certainly not proliflo in
begetting ideas.
Within s week or ten days the canvass maybe
■aid to havo fnlly opened. Jack Hamilton is
talking to the sovereigns in the eastern part of
the State, and Bonlds Baker, candidate for
Lieutenant Governor, is addressing them in the
western conntics. Wells Thompson, the most
promising man of his age in the State—-an original
Union man, bnt fighting gallantly on onr side
when the State elected to secede—is haranging
the popple in tho northern connties for the office
of Lieutenant Governor. There is another
prominent candidate, whose name I have forgot
ten, for the last named office, who is not idlo in
the canvass.
Congressional candidates, and thero aro plen
ty of them, are beginning to manifest some in
terest and activity in the cavaaa.
County candidates for the Legislature and
other minor offices are doing the usual amount
of bushwhacking, or rather they would be, but
that the open praties afford few bushes for
whacking. So you see tho prospects before us
are what might be called promising for lively,
if not profitable times. Bnt profitable they can
hardly be to the defeated candidates, and many
a man, once promising, date his downward
course in life to his election to a paltry county
office.
Apropos of what it costs to be elected to a
county office in a closely contested election.
Many yean ago, B***bndge, which is now a
handsome city, was a little one-hone town, Mr.
8***borough was a candidate for Legislative
honon from D*cat»* county, in your State, and
was elected by one tote ! Sir. 8. was a merchant,
and yean after he assured me that ho thought
he should never get through paying for that one
rote. A dozen times a week a sovereign would
claim a pair of boots as the legitimate reward
for that one vote, which he was certain ho had
cast. Two or three matrons would daily enter
his store, and with their blandest smiles say. "I
made the old man go to the ’lection, and he gin
that savin’ vote for you. Had it not been for
ms he wouldn't a gone; now yon moat give me
a pair of shoes for bobby or uaay.” What was
poor S. to do ? He was too gallant a gentleman
to say nay to these soft insinuations, and so ho
went on paying for that one vote, day after day,
until, by the time he had to start to MiUedge-
villc, he had bnt little left exoept empty shelves
for his elerk to look after. Jit tea* no more a
candidate/ / It was too ooetly a luxury.
Candidates for offioe, however, in this part of
the State will spend but little electioneering.
They never arm the elector* now and ask them
to drink. Even the wildest Radicals do not
bark that high on social equality. Still, a abort
quarantine and thorough fumigation after the
election, would be no disadvantage to somo of
the candidates before entering the presence of
their amiable “frown.’’
They have wild work on tho Rio Grande.
The Mexicans steal cattle and kill Americans.
The Utter yon know are not a race quiotly to
submit to such treatment, and after wo make
due allowances for the usual amount of oxager-
. nlion, there is still no doubt but murders on
F that frontier lino are of daily and nightly occur

On the Nueces and Gandalonpe, for months
paat, borso stealing by regular bands who mu
them off to tho frontior has been tlio regular
order of the day, until tho citizens, in- self-de
fence, banded together, hnng a considerable
number, and broko up the rest. All is qniet
along this line, and has been. The Brazos is a
quiet country.

Tlio .Slate Fair Tournament.
Auujrr, Gjl, October 7, 1SC!>.
The Superintendent of the Tournament, if aeon,
Oa.:
Dzax Sib—Tour list of prizes and regulations
for tho tournament is before me. The order of
k. arrangements are very good (with one or two
objectiona) as far as they go, bnt I do not think
they aro explicit enough, quite. As one of tho
knlghU from this county, I most respectfully ask
to submit the enclosed copy of rules to be laid
before the knights of Macon, hoping that they
will think proper to adopt them.
Ton will see that I propose nine rings instead
of three, and threo hundred yards instead of
one. My reason for that is that all tournaments
are gotten up for tho purpose of contesting the
•kill slid horsemanship of each knight, and don’t
you think that ho could display both to better
advantage by running three hundred yards than
at ono hundred; and with nine rings, if there
should be a tie between knights, it would be
more.easily decided than with three; and also
with the latter number thero will bo so many
As Ynights who would tako tho ring tho same num
ber of times, that ono day would not give them
sufficient time to docide who the champion ri
ders were. The time, “thirty seconds,’’is plenty
long, should be less, if anything; “race-horse
time that distanco is sixteen seconds.”
In your order of arrangements yon did not
make any provisions for tho crowning of the
Queen and Mr.ids of Honor, nor for the Tonran-
ment Ball which is always understood, and is
one of tho principal attractions for the ladies.
I hope that you will not think mo too presump-
tuona in submitting the within rules, or in sug
gesting any changes to those already made by
you. I know that onr object is the same, which
u toaee that Georgia is not second to anv Stato
“ anything that sho undertakes. There will be
visitors there on that day from every Stato in
the Union, and from Europe, and let us show
them that thongh “deluged” by numbers and
oup country under tho heel of the despot, yet
still we are not broken, “although verv badly
bent.”
A a matter of course any changes that yon
inay think proper to make in the within rules,
V? *°» but I would like for yon to adopt the
nine rings and three hundred yards. I would
be pleased to hear from you on the subject
I am very respectfully,
your obedient servant
_ _ C. H. Cnmna
C. if. Cornfield, Albany, Go. :
Dxi.it Snt—I was right glad to hear from the
first gallant knight of glorious old Dougherty,
and take the opportunity of requesting yon to en*
ro.l all yonr comrades in one company and elect
a captain. Let that companv be a largo one
and take the prize which is offered for discipline
and numbers. Tne prize list, though imperfect,
was the best that could be gotten np in the press
of business and has led you to err in many
PjJ 1 *®. I will try and elucidate the programme
and ar#r it whenever practicable with your sug
gestions. The seat of contest will be* a circle
250 yards in circumference, which will almost
•ttWs the distance which yon propose 300 yards )
r lbis circle will be in the centre of a v^st am
phitheatre, capable of seating vast nnmbeis of
a xnn
people, who are expected to pay a nominal sum
for witnessing the engagement. This is done
to increase the revenue of the Agricultural So
ciety.
Again—There is to be one day allotted to the
company from Albany to pick out the beet men
from her company, one to Augusta, etc., thus
consuming five or six days inchoosing the select
men from each company, who will contend for
the prize, to be given to the Queen of Lore and
Beauty, which will entitle the winner to the
championship of Georgia. Obseire, that each
company on this day, in the amphitheatre, takes
a prize for its most skillful knight. And your
fin £g^ s tions as to tho maids of honor will be fol
lowed ; also as to the judges. The nine foot
lance and 2\ inch ring had been adopted before
yours came to hand. The tournament ball is a
necessary consequent and will certainly be held.
Therp will be a regular band of music in attend
ance.
A full and revised final list will be sent you as
soon as other knights are heard from. In re
gard to a meeting of the knights a day or two
before, to consider a change of rules, etc., I
would suggest that it would be impracticable and
unnecessary, for you are enough of a soldier to
know that such a proceeding would lay the tour
nament liable to disorder, and of course would
not do. The knights of Macon will not have
any more power than other companies.
Your suggestions are all good and mainly shall
be adopted.
The knights of Bibb county have not elected
their leader as jet.
Organize your company and give it a worthy
name and order a place for camping early, prac
tice bk much as possible, and Georgia will boast
of ns fine a tournament as was ever held.
Get yonr paper to call a meeting, and let all
attend. Recollect your time is short, and in the
field there will be brother “foemen worthy of
your ate el.” Very reapectf ully,

A Remarkable Mint* Quarry In Chero
kee Georgia.
Wo have before ns a specimen of slate taken
from a quarry on the Cooaawattie river, seven
miles above Resaca on the Western and Atlantic
Railroad. The quarry is located on the farm of
Chief Justice Brown, which lies directly on the
river, a navigable stream for steamboats from
it to Resaca, having been used as such previous
to the war. The slate is of very superior quali
ty, and when quarried, can be laid on a flat or
other boat and carried directly to Resaca, (which
is on the bank of the river.) in a run of less than
three hours. The bank of the river, for nearly
a half a mile, is, we learn, a bluff of solid slate
rock, in places twenty-five feet high, and extend
ing downwards to an indefinite depth. The quar
ry runs back through Chief Justice Brown's
land more than half a mile. The whole tvb-
itrata, after going down three or four feet,
i- » -M ; * mu-. r,f slate. The quantity is so
sbi.T. l.n/ a. to I,,- inexhaustible for generations,
and its quality, as wo have beforo observed, is
the very best. It is entirely free from grit, is
■oft, and splits finely. It is as fine as the best
used in school rooms, or for roofiDg purposes,
and enough of it to roof every house in Qeor-
gi*- No other slate quarry that has been dis
covered in tbo State, wo are informed, can be
compared with it, in advantage of location and
convenience of transportation. The specimen
on our tablo was taken from near the water,
where tho river runs over it all the winter, ami
tbo atmosphere acting on it during the summer,
it is not ns perfect, superior as it is, as if taken
from the qnarry where it is not so exposed.
Tho discovery of this extraordinary slate
qnarry, wo learn, was purely accidental, and it
evidenoes tbe fact that the mining and mineral
region of Cherokee Georgia, is rich in its hid
den as well as exposed treasures. Samples of
this slate will be exposed at tho Macon Fair. In
the qnarry there is a mino of wealth to whom
soever may develop or work it Most fortunate
is Governor Brown in being tho owner of the
farm under which it has so loDg been hidden.
Wo will take pleasure in exhibiting tho sam
ple of this slate, in onr office, to any ono desir
ous of seeing it.—Atlanta Intelligencer.

About the hour of 1 r. it. yesterday, the Gth
ir.st., tho community was startled by a terrific
explosion in n direction apparently northwest
from this, accompanied by a dense volume of
smoke. Ono gentleman compared tho report
to the simultaneous discharge of a park of ar
tillery, and distinctly saw the column of smoke
which rose in the quarter from which the sound
proceeded.
Tho explosion was beard by two thirds of our
citizens, and some assert that the shock of an
earthquake wns plainly felt.
Addison, an intelligent colored man in tho
employment of Mr. William H. Brooks, says he
was at Beall's mill when the event occurred, and
in company with a white man, raw what resem
bled a sheet of flame descend from the heavens
towards Lumpkin, northwest of Cnthbert, and
beard at the same moment a terrific explosion.
The true solution of tho mystery may be
found, perhaps, in the sudden projection from
tho moon or some other heavenly body, of a
vast irrolite or metallic mass in a state of fusion,
which lies, doubtless, deeply embeded in tho
bosom of mother earth. We shall anxionsly Await

A Trotting Hutch.
At a certain evening party, a haughty young
beauty turned to a student who stood near her,
and said:
“Cousin John, I understand your eccentric
friend L is here. Do bring him here and
introduce him to me."
John went in search of bis friend and at length
found him lounging on n sofa.
"Cornell ," said he, my beautiful cousin
Catliriuo wishes to be introduced to yon.”
“Well, trot her out, John,” drawled L— ,
with an affected yawn.
John returned to his cousin and advised her
to defer tho introduction to a more favorabfe
time, repeating the answer he bad received.
The beauty bit her lip, bnt the next moment
said : “Well, never fear, I shall insist on being
introduced."
After somo delsy L was led np and the
ceremony of introduction was performed. Agree
ably surprised by the beauty and commanding
appearance of the yonng lady, L made a
profound bow, but instead of returning it, she
stepped backward, and raising her glass sur
veyed him deliberately from head to foot; then
waiving the back of her hand towards him,
drawled ont:
“Trot him off, John! trot him off 1 That is
enough.

Isold the cotton to Swatts J: Brown, at Bamesville, and anyone doubting the weight can be furnished tbe
