Senator Norwood’s speech in favor of the Centennial appropriation was un doubtedly a fine effort It, was distin guished by a degree o 4 classical elegance as rare as it is pleasing. We give up a good deal of spice this week to an inlere ting account of the proceedings of the State Agricultural Convention at Brunswick, written by a De'egato from Kook dale county.

Correspondent of the Chicago Trlbu to.l What a pity that iunooent chilJren should bo the victeius of so much pru rient ouriosity arising out of a scan lal for which they me in notvise responsible. \ tew days ago, walking along Ucdford avenue in Brooklyn, I saw a bright little,j fellow running along the street followed bv a troop ol children hallo dug, “Ralph Tilton, win re,s your father?” That first child was Rn'ph Tilton son of Theodore Tilton. He is attending a Kindergarten school on Bedford avamte ; and was on his way to his mothers home. Mrs. Tilton is living with her mother, the former Mrs. Moiao, on Madison street, near Nos trail 1 avenue. She has her two sons with her, and the father has charge ot the daughters. Mrs, Morse pays the expenses of the Tilton boys’ schooling, and it is believed Theodore Tilton hint sell is contributing largely to his wife's present support.

TJH STATE AORtrUETCKM COXVXNTIOS A T BRUSH WICK, Our delegation lull (.’opyns at mid. , night of the sixth insb, and had a very pleasant, or unpleasant time, .“owing to | each man's peculiar situation, toCamak. When we boaided Uiy tars at Cooyrrt, we found a few delegates from up the road ; lively, jovial fellows, with whom wo passed a very agreeable time, to Brunswick. At every little lown along the lino of the Georgia Hail ltoad our number was steadily ii creased, and by the time we reached Camak, the junc tion of the Augusta and Macon roads, our party was swelled to a considerable size. We reached C’am&k at six, on the j morning of the seventh ; finding that Millie place still hearing unmistakable evidence of thp visits ot the devastating tornadoes of last Spring ; though still possessing life enough to be prepared for our reception. All that was necessary on our part, was to wake up a liitlc ne gro, who proved to be in somewhat of a sulky hum'* Vt being thus early aroused from his lvappy slumber. Having pros •cured a box of matches, one of our brother delegates from DuKalb, t be lieve, humbled himself to the task of kindling a fire j while said little Darkle sallied forth to the wood pile, about a quarter of a mile off, seemingly, for an atm full of wood. Wc were soon hav ing a jovial time around the cheerful hearth stone. And to crown our felici ty, we were regaled at breakfast time with “a cup of Coffee," (which wo judged had taken the homestead, from the fact that we could never bring it to a settle ment,) at the very reasonable charge of fifteen cents a clip, Luckily for us we had our own lunch along. At a quarter past eleven we bid adieu to C’smak ; willing, yea, anxious to pro ceed. A few minutes ride brought us to the little town of Warrentous neat thrifty, nr.d evidently enterprising! wearing, even in old age, the freshness and bloom of youth. A few miles further on we came to Max field; young, ragged and ugly; looking somewhat forsaken, though stili defiant. Something may Oe in stole for it. Who knows? Culverton cornea next; small, neat and wearing an air of exceeding good health, from the fact Uiat T itts l’ilts, Simmons Regltl 'tor and ome other gen tleman's Expectorant Were blazoned Up on every fence, out house and old shop in the place, and in fact almost every thing animate and inanimate where space enough could be bad for a display of the painter’s skill. Next comes Sparta ; beautifully situ ated, evidencing thrift, prosperity and comfort—with mOro pills, regulators and expectorants. Next in order is Milledgevillc ; whose glory is departed. It was once the Cau dal of our noble Commonwealth. Its descried Slate House still slan;>s a monument to Georgia’s past gW y. A spirit of sadness and gloom soems to hover around its deserted walls, which once echoed the eloquence of Georgia’s most gifted s ns. From Milledgev’.lle to Macon there is no place to claim our attention in this shell and hurried report. We arrived in Macon at four o’clock in tlie afternoon. Wo Were immediately interviewed by a durkie porter from the Dally House, who at length prevailed upon us, as we hud to lie over until iotu next morning, to beoomo his guests ; a decision which we had no cause to re gret, from the fact that we were splen didly entertained— a sumptuous supper and good bedding for the small sutrf of fifty cents. Do not take our word for it, but when you visit Macon call anti test the merits of the Dally House, and be your own judges. We left Macon Tuesday morning, the Bth, at tour o’clock. Our heads are now turned in the direction ot Brunswick for the first time since we left home. For more than forty miles below Macon we did not have the opportunity ot seeing the country, as we passed before light. But as soon as daylight revealed to us the general aspect of the country, we were struck with its monotonous charac ter. Low, flat, piney woods, too poor for anything to inhabit, it we except gophers and salamanders; evidence of j whose presence could be seen on every j hand. Though we should not neglect to ! mention the oue item of lumber in which commodity they seem to be doing a thriving business Not the gophers and | salamanders, but the few ot A lam’s do- j , scemhints, who dispute the possession of j the country with these burrowing qnad | rupeds. Most ot their shipments being made at the mouth ot the Altumaba r.v , er —though Brunswick is doing a very | lively business in the lumber trade. I One hundred and tarty-six miles from Maoou we cross the Atlantia and Gulf Rail Road, at Jessup, a very thriviug • little city, which we have ttu doubt will eventually b' a place of oinsderable importance. Thence to Brunswick we bad the same monotonous scenery ; varied vvitli th : live oak, oppress and palmetto. To Brunswick at ast, after a ride of about four hundred miles, —hut I should have stated that by this lime otr party had so increased that we numbered the greater part ot the Convention. We L wore m t at the and. pot by these who had ’ preceded u-, and by a host of citizens, accompanied by the Brunswick Cornet Band, to welcome as to the end ot our journey. M e were banted up by the citizeus, (*ich man of whom knew ex actly y.’no he was in quest ol,) ushered indo carriages and carried to our respect ] live quarters. Getting dinner, we re ! turned to the hall in time for the after noon session. We found the Hoot occupied by Dr. Pendleton iu an address on tlie value of fertilizers, as shown by experiments on the Agricultural harm at Athens, which a-M-vs* the public will get in full lrom the proceedings of the Convention. Tuesday night; grand theatrical en* teflainmont, lot the benefit of the Kpis copal Church, occupying our hall, there by deprived us of the pleasure ot a night session. A'so a banquet at anoihc el- place, for the benefit of the Baptist Church, which we were generous enough not to attend. Wednesday mottling; bright and beautiful, Convention met, called to 0r <),.,• by the President. Address by Prof. W hite ol the State University on Agri cultural Cliemistiy. Also a very pithy speech by the lion. Mr. Horne ot Twiggs; opposed to Commercial Keitili zers ; replied to by the Hon. Mr. How ard of DeKalb; n lively duel ot big guns. Also an address ou fish culture, by Dr. Cary. Before adjournment it was announced that au excursion boat would leave the wharf at two o'clock in the afternoon, lor the light-house aud the Ocean. It is needless to add that our delegation was on hand. Our trip was a very pleasant one, rendered more so by the martial strains of Dixie, by the band, which accompanied us. \\ e crossed the sound und steamed out into the Atlantic several miles, and returned to the city by sun down. At night; address by Dr. Tucker, Chancellor Of the State University; on the dignity ot labor ; the best thiug of tiie kind l ever heard ; a synopsis, even, of which 1 will not attempt to give, as it was voted a p'ace 011 the minutes of the Convention. Thursday morning, the closing session of the convention. After considerable business of more or less importance, we heard the report of the Executive Corn mittee, which spoke well of the standing of the State Society. After the report ot the Committee, we had an address on Entomology, or perhaps a great number of your leaders would understand it better as I>ngologv, by Prof. Humphries, of Virginia; the ultiinatioc ot whose labors is tho de struction ot the Cotton Catapillar. The remain ter of the s ssion, unim portant, adjourned at one o’clock, p. M. Nothing remained for us to do but tio gel our dinners, gather Up our baggage and pay our bills; which, the getnerons citizens of Brunswick considering we were there on an invitation from them selves, very magnanimously put board down to the extremely low rate of sixty dollars per' month, Doesnt Conyeis want a State Convention ? It so, send in your invitation ! I am of the opinion it will be- a long time before it will meet again in toe Live Oak City of Brunswick. 'The next meeting of the Convention will bo in Gainesville,Hu 1 county. And when the delegates from the low country visit her mountain region, let us hope that her citizens, for the take of their own reputation, as well as that ot ah North Georgia, will not try to guess so exactly at the contents of their Pocket Books A Delegate.
