Peaches. Our Office is under obligat ions to our young friend Wm. Hunter Anderson, for the finest lot of this excellent fruit we have seen this year. They were well worthy to be called Democratic Peaches, for such fruit, growing on Willie’s trees, certainly yield “ the greatest good to the greatest liumber.’i While we are opposed to the Congressional efforts to remove the President, we heartily approve of this style of im-PEACti-mcnt. Georgia Ruilrond Superintendent. As the efficient officer who lias served this road so satisfactorily, has been called to the Presidency of the Nashville & Chattaiigoga Railroad, (as we learn from liie Chronicle it Sentinel,) we notice that Maj. Campbell Wallace is suggested as his i neccssor to the Superintendeucy of the Georgia Railroad. If his services can be secured, tlie Com pany will be indeed fortunate. While we shall re gret tlie loss of Col. Cole to the Road, we will con gratulate it upon the accession of so able a success or. May prosperity and happiness attend Col. Cole in his new field of labor. Death by Lightning. On Wednesday, the 19th inst,., a, Mr. W. J. Ma bry was working in his yard, in the vicinity of StarrsvHle, with his little children playing near hitn, they were all prostrated by a stroke of lightning in sight of Mr* Mabry, who was in the house at the time. Mr. Mabry recovering immediately, went to the children, who all recovered except his oldest son, about nine years old, whom lie took up, and tound to be dead. The afflicted parents and relatives have onr most sincere sympathy in this sudden be reavement. May their wounded hearts be healed by that God who alone has power to speak comfort t« such as lie has wounded. Georgia Teachers’ Association. The regular meeting of this Association, appoint. ,ed to be held in Atlanta on the 23d inst., is post poned until further notice. The presiding officer has ordered this postponement—lst. Because lie has been requested to do so by a number of the most active members of the Association. 2d. Because the time of meeting of tlie National Convention of Teachers in Nashville conflicts with this. 3d. Be cause important Committees are not, ready to re port, and the Association would, consequently, be almost without business ; and 4th. Because it is be lieved shat in one of the winter months a larger at tendance can be secured. H. H. Tucker, President. Penßeld, Go., August 13, 18G-S. Does lie Mean It f A rumor is spoken of as current in Washington, to the effect that Grant is returning from his West ern tour with the design of withdrawing from the candidacy. It is said that the universal leeiing in Ihe \V est is so manifestly in favor of Seymour, that pc General despairs of succeeding against him.— Sherman is spoken of as the next Radical candidate fins rumor may or may not be correct. But noth- j ing ran save tlie sinking fortunes of Radicalism. If •lie General has sense enough to withdraw from the ' ■ anvase it is one favorable symptom for his intel lect. Democratic Meeting. Tlie people of Newton county, and the adjoining counties, of all parties, are Invited to meet at Cov ington, on Saturday, Sept.. sth, to hear Hon. B. 11. Hill, Gen. John B.

We have assurance from them, that they w ill lie here on that day.— Conic one, come all! and hear for yourselves, and then judge ye! JOHN J. FLOYD, President Democratic Club, Newton county. Covington Ga., Aug. 19, IHGB. .Editorial Change. We neglected last week to notice that Mr. Ells, whose attractive and graceful pen lias heretofore enriched the local columns of the Augusta Daily Constitutionalist, liaslcft that city, and taken charge of tlie Local Department of tlie Atlanta Daily In telligencer. We congratulate the patrons of the latter paper on tlie accession to itaalreaay powerful editorial stats, and wish friend Ells prosperity and happiness in his new career. New Warehouse Firm. The at ten Non of the planters stjd others having business in Augusta, is directed to the card of E. W. Doughty A Cos., in tills paper. As both Mr l Doughty and his partner, Mr. Willborforct Daniel, arc well known to the business public, they need no endorsement from us. They will be found in the' commodious Warehouse, on Mclntoab street, for merly occupied by Bustin & Walker. They will make liberal advances on Cotton in store, and their charges for selling will lie 1 1-4 per cent. i- ——«»- *- Carpets, Oil Cloths, Ac- Now is your chance to get bargains in this line, as will be seen by tire card of Mr. S.

Democratic Meeting. Mu. Editor: A meeting of the Democratic Club of Stansell’s and Oak Hill Districts, was tfeld at Stevenson's Academy, on tlie loth inst. The union of the Clubs was perfected by the election of Alfred Livingston, Presiuent, P. F. Christian and George M. Cunningham, Vice-Presidents, and L. F. Living ston, Secretary and Treasurer. Our young friend, John V. Woodson, Esq., of Covington* addressed the meeting, on the issues of the day, and, lam proud to say, with telling effect. He showed plain ly and forcibly that there was no cause for a differ ence between white men in this struggle, and in a kind spirit invited those in the audience who had heretofore allied themselves with the Radical party, to rally to the rescue of the white race. Mr. P. F. Christian, and others in this part of tlie county, eamo out for the white man’s party, against negro supremacy. This was accomplished by mutual con cessions of the errors of both parties—our party in not furnishing a mode of relief for the oppressed— theirs by voting for the Constitution as a whole for tlie Benefit of one or two clauses. May the good work go on until not one white man in this county remains to advocate the equality of the races, and the inequality of the States. L. F. Livingston, Secretary. The Meeting at Salem Camp Ground. Mr. Ei>:run : Agreeably to promise I send you an account of the Democratic meeting held on the llt.li inst.., aCSalem Camp Ground. A large concourse of ladies and gentlemen having assembled at an early hour, at 10 o’clock A. M. the meeting was called to order, and, on motion, Levi Mercer, Esq. was call to the Chair, and Captain G. M. Cunningham requested to act as Secretary. On motion of ITon. John J. Fl iyd, the Rev. H. Quigg was requested to open the exercises of the day with prayer, which lie did in his usually eloquent, point ed, and pathetic style. Elder Wm. L. Beebe was then presented to the audience, and for half au hour, addressed them in an entertaining and instructive manner, showing conclusively that our religious liberties are involved in this contest. One argument, of his I must mention, and that was, that in our Government all liberty rests on the written law, and none knew better than the Radical party that to change our form of Government, which is interwo ven with our feelings and sentiments, our religion must undergo a change; and lie instanced the Con stitution of Arkansas to show that they had com menced this diabolical work. The speaker was in very feeble health, and was compelled to desist in the midst of his earnest appeal to all men of all parties, to rally to Seymour and Blair, and thereby save their religious and political liberties. Then came Judge Reynolds, and I found myself aston ished to hear sueli an address from him. He un doubtedly made the best effort of his life, and it had a most wonderful effect. Tlie Judge was pointed in his arguments, and powerful in bis appeals iu favor of the success of the Democratic party. After this came tlie feast oi good things tor tlie inner man, prepared by the ladies. And a feast it was—every thing that the ingenuity of woman could produce in that department, was on hand. There was one dish on the board that abounded, and which would have convinced every Radical preacher in the land that he is in the wrong crowd, and that was Fried Chicken —the only argument, iu my opinion, that wtil reach that class. 1 ue audience re-assembled under the arbor, and for one hour and a half listened to the Hon. John J. Floyd in his usual argumentative and placid style. The speaker commenced with the formation of onr Government, and showed tlie various opinions that prevail in its formation” he then traced these parties down to the present,and by contrast settled beyond a doubt that our salvation is w ith the Dem ocratic party. His appeal to the ladles for their iti lluence, was a happy effort , and well received. After this the Democratic Club of Stansell’s District or ganized by electing Capt. G. M. Cunningham, Pres ident, \\ . 11. McNicl, \ ice l’resideut, and James Stephenson, Secretary. It was then agreed, on motion, that the Democratic Clubs of Oak Hill and Stansell’s Districts unite their organizations, and that the Club meet on Saturday, the 15th inst., at 10 o’clock, A. M., at Gazart's Academy. Next Fall these Districts will make a good report. L. F. Livingston. A Sign of the Times, W c were pleased to notice that on last Saturday, says tlie North Georgia Times, but sow of the col. ored citizens from town and vicinity attended the Radical meeting. This show's that they are begin ning to learn upon which side "ilieir bread is but tered. If thgy would thus continue it would be much better lor them. We arc not going to stand hoodwiukingany longer. They must either declare themselves for or against us. The time has come. The lines are drawn, and their success deiiemls upon the way they vote in November. The Kadicnl Meetings Private. The Atlanta Intelligencer of the 10th instant says that as some gentlemen last night were passing in front of the Bell-Johnson Ilall they heard speaking, and went up to hear the speaker. On reaching the door they found it guarded by a negro ; they asked him if tlie meeting was private, and he said, “ No, it is a Radical meeting.” They entered, but were soon notified that they could not remain, “ ’Le® da b’longril to de Grant Club.” As the gentlemen did not wish to join; they left without h-wring much,; but they got even in the smelling —they got euough ; ot that’ Ifs So. Young Lillies who arc . ecu .-domed to read tiie newspapers are always observed to possess winning ways, most amiable dispositions, in variably make good wives and always select ■ good husbands. —Macon Telegraph. Yes, Mr. Telegraph, you tell a fact. iSueh ladies in Atlanta are designated by their Intel ligence sir. — At. Intelligencer. But more especially bv their familiarity with the Constitution. — At. Constitution. Allow ns to Telegraph the Intelligence sir that in this section ladies of sound Constitution are known to be devoted to Enterprise. —»■* -to*— The Cost of llndicul Rule. Radical rule lias been an expensive luxury to the tax payers of this country. In a speech at Syracuse, New York, tlie other day, tHo Hon. A. J. I’ogeis said : “ During the seventy-three years our government existed, previous to the late war. Us total expendi tures were less than fourteen hundred millions of dollars. AVithiu the past three years, since thee op elusion of the war, the Radical party has expended over sixteen hundred millions! Two hundred mil lions more in three years, and that in time of pro found peace, than the entire cost of the Government for seventy-three years previous to the rebellion. — What do the tax payers think of this? And this same party asks to be continued in power 1” The Question for the North, The New York World thus truly says: “ The real question is not so much whether the negroes and carpet-baggers are to rule the South, but whether they arc to rule us. Already there are twelve of these ‘loll’ leeches in the Senate and thirty three in the House, Are they to rule us ? That 1b the ques tion.'’ Dynamite. This is the invention of a Swedish gentle man, Mr. Nobel, who also discovered therexplo sive qualities of nitro glycerine. It resembles a course, dark brown sand, and it is asserted is not affected Ly the causes which produce such violent explosions of gunpowder and nitro glycerine. The explosive agent is a percussion cap. and it is claimed that by no other means can the charges he ignited. Heat has no effect upon it. Nitro-glyetrine explodes at 210 de grees Fahrenheit, gun-cotton nt 400 degrees gunpowder nt 600 degrees, n common fire at 1200 degrees; but a much higher temperature than this is required to ignite dynamite, which must be placed somewhere between 1400 and 3270 degree®. Some very interesting ex periments with this compound have recently been made in England, and the scientific gen tlemen who witnessed the trials, expressed themselves in terms of the greatest satisfaction. A ten pound box of the dynamite was thrown from the top of a high cliff, and was exposed to a raging fire, but no explosion took place.— On the other hand, the charges set off by a percussion cap gave evidence of the powerful destructive effects of the compound. Tlie Arabs, the most careful of their horses of all people, do most of their horse feeding at night. They say Hurt feeding in the day time does not impart so much vigor and elasticity to the animal as night feeding. They afford water, too, very sparingly dur ing the day time. A woman iu Minnesota who had gathered a quantity of potato bugs burned them in her cooking-stove, and while leaning over the stove inhaled poisonous fumes. Sho fell to the floor insensible, and died in about ten minutes. Two Germans, last year,bought eighty acres of land in Southern Tennessee, and paid for their lot with the proceeds of the first year's crop of four acres of strawberries, set out last fall.
