In accordant* with too rocornondn* lion of ilio Democratic meeting of jreiitordajr, tbo Democrat* of the county aro onrncwtly reqtimtod to n«- •emtilo nt tho Court Houw, in Codnr- towu ai 12 o’clock m. t on tho 18lh of Anguat for iho purpose* raoomendod iu Unit primary mooting, m well ai sny other basin* bh that may logiti xoately cone be faro it. T. M. PACE. Chairman Dcm Ex Com Poik County. Prom Waulftingtou. I’ho negotiation* for tho now five l>er cent, loan which have bocu pro- grt-ueiug for several days will proba bly bo concluded very soon, and tho Secrotary of tho Treaaury in quite con fident it will result in disponing of tho entiro Balance of tho Uvo per cent, bonds authorized by law. Treasurer Spinner had an intervjfUr with with Secretary Bristow, ancl it is understood tho differences existing botwnctn tboir respective branches have boon amicably adjusted, Gonernl Spinner retaining oxclusivo control of tho appointrnonts iu bis department! Tho Secretary of tho Treasury says tbore is nothing uow to report iu re gard to tho subscriptions to the uow five per cents, other than that tho amount of bids exceeds ton million, aud that negotiations for further amounts uvo still pending. A Convention of lit* Weekly Press* That Princo of good fellowjyChar lie McGregor, of the Warrnuton Clip por, suggests tho colling a convention of tho country press of Georgia, to meet iu Atlanta during tho couiiug fall. Wo sccoud tho motion. Lot utt have a rousing meeting of iho weekly press of tho State, and sco if this “patent outside’’ question can’t bo amicably and honorably settled. What wo saw, felt and “tasted 'on tho Con* slitution excursion has given iih a sort of ‘hankerin' to sco all tho newspapor men iu Georgia together at once. Let tho thing bo canvassed among tho newspapers, and tho day appointed, and wo think tlitro will do a general turn-out. Who will name an appro priate day for tho mooting ? Wo indorse tho ubovo from tho Gainesville Engle, and as tho propo sition conn h from thoso who have dis regarded tho rules and regulations of tho Georgia Press Association, wo shull favor their entire control uud management of tho new lav-out. Tho truth is, tho city audios have not touted fair with the country fol lows. Tho country press ran do bet ter in » w.jueut** «.Anti wo aro gtud In see tho iimmigeinunl spring from tho quarter it does.—Al bany Nows. Wo are glad to moo that somo of tho ‘‘Press Association" editors aro coming to tboir bouhcb on the question of tho so-rollod “patent outsides.” Wo nro iu favor of tho proposed con vention, and would suggest thut a day during Pair week uext full would bo u good time. TunnesMoo justly lays claim to tho champion snako story. Tho Mur freesboro (Tontu) Ntm gives an ac count of u young lady living uoar Christiana, who had boon ill for four yoars, and on tho night of tho 20th of Juuo sho was found in a strangling condition, and, a physician being monod, ho pulled from her month a snako twouty-threo inchos long and two-thirds 41 of an inch iu diameter. Tho uttcuding physician sustains tho uowspapor account with a statement of tho cane given upon his profession nl honor. Before thinly crediting tho story, wo would like to boo a stutu rnout regarding tho professional turn or of tho physician. A correspondent of theVioksburg Herald gives an account of a uow in vention now iu practical operation in tho Mountain CottoA Mills, near Bil- tou Station, on tho Memphis and Charleston Railroad, which, if it proves to bo nil that is represented must have u nioro important effect upon tho production and manufacture of cotton than even Whitney's cotton gin 1ms hod. It dooH away with tho ordinary*process of ginning, convert ing tho cotton jubt as it ia lulteu from tho field iuto thread of a supt rior quality. It costs only $250, and is attached to tho ordinary curd stand. It is said that specimens of thrond made by this machine has been sent nearly all tho Northern manufactures, and have boon pronounced stronger aud mora Illations tlmu that spun by tho ordinary method. It is claimed that a tine id spun by this menus will sustain fully one-third more weight tbau a thread of samo sizu made of potion that has pissed through tho process of compression and the com plicated machinery of cotton mills. The groat importance of tho inven tion, however, consists in the fact that by its cheapness aud simplicity it may bo introduced into common use, aud tho natural result will ho to transfer tho whole work of cottou spinning from tho wuuufuctoiies to tho o- tton fields, thus i dieting a great saving iu tho cost of packing aud truusportu- tiou, aud iu other expenses. “I suppose,*’ said a quack, while feeling tho pulse of his patieut, ‘that you thiuk mu a humbug?” “Sir/’ re plied the mao, “1 perceive you can discover a mau’s thoughts by your touch,’’ [Communicated] Dr. Wm. II. FELTON. The 18th day of August neifc has been fixed upon to nominate a candi dal for tho Legislature) and to elect delegates to tho Congressional Con vention* It is highly important that the maos of tho people bo well represented in each. Tboir interests and welfare aro at stake. If they wish to havo honest and capahlo men—men un selfish, patriotio and trua to tho in terest of tho living and the memory of tho dead, lut thorn coino out apd sec that no man is chosen becanao ho is a favorite of a small caous, and a still smaller tiny. Hinge aro gonornly ms do up of inon who seek tho promo tion of their own selfish ambition, and who select only such men as aro sub servient to tho interost of tho ting. It is high time that tho poopfe woro being aroused from tboir lethargy, and that they corao forward and soo to it that men ho selected for tboir patriotism, tboir ability uud fitness, and that they aro exempt from tho po litical rings that havo made bur na tional Capital a synonym for fraud and dishonesty tho world over. Dr. Wm. II. Felton, of Bartow county, has ntiuoucod himself a dem ocratic candidate for Congress—and who is inoro Hit aud able. Ho is no professional polititian; has nover spec ulated in tho spoils of office, nor gone urtHlfld hunting up a few dele gatus who would nominate him. Ho is identified in interest with tho pooplo. All his sympathies aro with them. Ho has felt their burdens and ahurud their hardships. If tboy wish to briug order out of chaos, lesson the burdens of taxation, drive tho money changers from tho halls of Congress, “let a great gulf ho placed between tho pooplo and Kings and Cliques, who put forward ineti who havo no sympathy and inter est with thorn.’’ Let tho watchword bo honesty aud exemption from polit ical intrigue and ring masters. Lot truth and virtuo prevail. Anti-Ring. Wo publish tho following in justice to Mr. Trammell : Dai.tjn, Ga., July 27, 1874. Mr. EditorIn your iaauo of tho 25thlust I find tho following : 41 1., N. Trnimnoll, candidate for (’on- groan, publishes In tho Georgia Common wealth tho contract between klinsslf and the llruniwiok Albany railroad Company, whereby he obligated himself lo labor to nrovunt any legislation dotrimontut lo iho tuL.-l. 1, t-n.Uug »« UU« it way its chartered lights or iutorfero wii Iho endorsement of ltn bond* by tho Sint for which sorvioo, if successful, ho was i receive $5000 from tho company in tho first coniruol. and $2,000 iu tho second. Mr. Trammell thinks his duties as a legislator did not prevent or make It iinpropor to rc- oolvo a feu for services in the legislative hall, In addition to a por diem. Tho poo- plo must judge of this luultcrfor themselves. Tho above notice of my card docs ino a wry groat injustice and a griev ous wrong, which I cannot boliovo was intended, and which I ask you to correct. I was not a member of tho legislature at tho liino tho contract abovo alluded to was made. A care ful reading of my cud, with ordinary underst tudiug of tho history of tho times,could not have failed to conviuo tho fninniuded render of this fact. I was sworn in anil took my seat us a member of tho legislature tho first of Novombar, 1871. Tho contract til- ludod to, as sluiwu by date aud prov en by tho sworn cortifioato, was made tho Oth day of November, 18(10. Tho additional coutrnct was made in 1870. The whole matter was settled Romo twelve months before I became a inembo?of tho legislature. This contract was not miulo to lob by a radical legislature. The legis lature at that time was largely Dem ocratic. 'ibis contract was made long before there had been any irreg ularities charged in the management of, or odium had attached to, that en terprise. It was made when the li. & A. R. R. was looked to by thous ands of the best citizens of Georgia as tho oi ly relief from tho oppressions of ilio Central Railroad. It was made not to advocate tho passage of any bill, but, to prevent the repeal of tho act of 1800. See nets p. 1411. It has been tukou advantage of by tho bond ring of New York and used to my in jury, because I stood by tho puoplu of my State and against them and their fraudulent bonds, as the journals will abundantly testify, from tho day l took my seat until tho day of tho final adjournmout of tho Senate. I fully vindicated myself against this attack made by tho bond ling and their allies in 1872, and was re-elected President of tho Senate by tho unanimous vote of a Sum to acquainted with all the fuots. It is thought by some to be improper for tin attorney to take fuss in matters pending before tho legislature. Is there ono of my opponents who is an attorney that will say ho has not takou such fees,? “Let him that is not guilty cast tho first stoue.” Respectfully, L. N. Tuammell. STATE NEWH. Noar Yellow rivor bridge, in Now- ton county, Saturday, tho 18tb, a ne gro boy numed Torroll Clurk, was run over and killed by tho down priasou- gor night train on tbo Goorgia Rail road. Tbo Griffon Mescnger says that J. O. Freeman, tho consort of tho ne groes, has deeded his ptoporty to liis son, notwithstanding tbo fact thut he is ou tho bouds of soverul Federal office-holders. Dr. Myers lias resigned tho Presi dency of tho Wesleyan College). Prof. Bass will succeed him. Change to bo miulo uoxt January. Mr. Duuiol - Weaver, of Lumpkin county, has twenty acres in corn which, competent judges say will make fifty bushels per acre. The* Mountain Signal says; Mr' Anderson McDonald, of Lumpkin county, has gathered from a quarter of an acre, planted in onions, nine and a half bushels of buttons aud twonty five bushclo of large, fiuo on ions, and has on tho somo ground planted sixteen hundred cabbage plants. Estimating Iho onion sets nt six dollars per bushel, and onions at ono dollar por bushel, makes the value of tho crop already gathered, $88 10. At ten cants ti head, tits cabbage crop yet to como, will yield $100, making tho total product of this quarter of an acre $210 50. Somo men aro born to misfortune. At a fourth of July pio uie a Coving ton chap got his cyo pummcled for spoaking to nnothor fellow’s girl, and when ho tearfully oxplninud that “he’d knowod hor for thoso past thirty yoara,” hn got all his hair pulled out. Tho Bruiubridgo Democrat says: Flattering report i of the crops come to ns from all parts of tho county, Tho corn crop is pronounced tho best since tho war. Cottou is doing well. Very few caterpillars lmvo bueu soon, and it is hoped that no dumngo will bo dono by thon\ Dr. Bull and son, on trial in Macon the past few days, for murdoving W. I). Mitchell on tho highway, havo boon acquitted. Hon. A. II. Stophona will not bo candidate for rc-olootion to Con gre.-s next election. A school boy being requested to write a composition upon the subject of “pius/’ produced tho following: "Fins ate very useful. They have saved a groat many men, women and children—in fact whole families.' “How bo?*‘ Ubked the puzzeled teacher. And the boy replied: “Why, by uot swallowing them.’’ This matches the story »f the other boy who defined suit as ‘the stuff that makes potatoes | timto bad when you dont put ou To the Voters of the 7th Coii- IfrcHHioiiul District. Fr.u.ow Citizens :—Next Novombe you will have to select at tho “bullet box” squib ono to represent you iu Uk 44th Congress of tho United Status, Tho object of this communication is to an nounco myself a Democratic candidate for that high and rettpoilsi bio position, anil to solicit your suf- frugo for tho same. 1 make (his * announcement, only anxious that, if oloctod, 1 may tbily reprosout a District whoso citi zens are characterized by their indus try, intelligence, virtuo and patriotism. I am no professional politician ; I havo noycr speculated in the spoils of office ; >ot, iu common with the pro ducing olussos of my native Statu, I havo been practically familiar with tho losses, privations and pecuniary bur dens entailed upon us by Mich politi cal mandgmuout. 1 havo B**\m every legitimate igdustry of our State de pressed—public improvements sus- uudod —merchants embarrassed— ‘armors, mechanics and tftauufuoUtrors iduoed to tho greatest straits, com pelled to economise even in the nec essaries of life—and yet, in this gen eral doimiudon, our politicians havo controlled tho public funds with reck less i xtrnvugauoe. Our legislative bodies, both State and National, havo iu many cast's, acted as if tlioru was mb gulf,” fixed between them uud tho jieoptc, and as if tho ouly bimnoRS of tho producing classes was neol by their labor* the expendi tures of their legislature. Much of this 1ms been caused by tho indiffer- and apathy of the people in se lecting their representatives. They havo entrusted this duty almost en tirely to a few citizens, who, in “euu- setubled, authoritatively pre scribe the men ami metmn'es that tiro to bo sustained. Often, under this ‘individual guidance," men are placed in power who aro greatly removed the necessities, tho labors and sufferings of the people. In this peuiling election I submit my claims to you, my fellow citizous, entiro body, ami can only assure you, if chosen ns your represent a tivu in Congress, that every iflort of 1113 life shall bo devoted to your interests uud prosperity. 1 will servo with es pecial reforcuco to tho development r immediate wealth, and assist, ary practical way, tho productive industries of tho country, remember ing that every dollar which finds its way unlawfully into tho pockois of your public servants, or is squandered by unconstitutional and extravagant legislation, is so much loss to tho producers of tho land. Wo must retrenchmerit and economy iu our National Congress, or in a few years tho wealth of tho States will be in tho bunds of thoso who enjoy “official patronage," while tho pooplo will be inevitably impoverished. Let tho people look well to their i\ pre^euta li ves hi Congress. Aro they identified in interest and life wub tho pooplo? Do all their antecedents guarantee future exemption from tho corrupt political "rings” that havo made our National Capital a syno. yiu for fraud and fiishouesty tho world ovo A few yours ago tho simple uamo i f Democrat or. Whig was sufficient evident*) that its effici d represontnt was above intention —undiluted ; that ho stood with clean bauds amid tho blandishments of opjsjrUtnily. Alas! modern experience lms taught us that political nomenclature is no longer a guide to personal honesty, or security for public integrity. While I mn a Democrat, at the sarno time I ask no voter to receive that fact ns proof that, if elected, I would deal justly with tho pooplo, for I might como before you with the en dorsement of a hundred Democratic Conventions, and unless there was behind all that endorsement tho broad collateral of “personal character,” the people would have no security for my ofl’c al conduct. In this c ihviiBH I make issue with’ no man. I wage war with no open ing aspirant for this office. I intend simply to discuss before you, in your respective counties, tho questions in teresting und important to the hon est voters of tho District, and refer tho result to the ballot box. W. H. Fei.ton. Bartow County, July 22, 1874. Seeing a Point.—A boy returned h jiil from school ono day with the re port thut bis scholarship lmd fallen below the usual average. “Well/’said thojfather, ‘ youv\i fallen behind this month, havo you?" “Yes air." “How lid that happen?” Tho father know if tho son did not. The old gent Ionian bad obsorved soveru! cheap novels scat tered about the house, but had uot thought it worth while lo any anything until a fitting opportunity should offer itself. A basket of apples stood on tho floor, and he said: “Empty those apples, and take the but-kot aim bring it to mo half full of chips; “and now,” ho continued "put those tipples back into tho basketWhen half tho ap ples woro replaced, tho son said: “Father, they roll off; I can’t put in any more.” “Put thorn in, I tell you.’ “But, father, I can’t put them in.” "Put thorn iu 1 No, of oouno you can’t put thorn iu.
