Send in, if you want a good school. Our young friend, Wm. Kim brough, is in town, and called on us in onr saifctum yesterday. Billy is tho same clever, social fellow of old. Life at the Springs agrees with him, as he is better looking than ever. Usfoetunate. —Tho dwelling house and kitchen of Mr. T. P. Grant, who lives near Calaula, was entirely consumed by fire last Friday night, together with all his kitchen furniture and some meat, meal, flour, lard etc, which he bad placed in the kitchen for convenience. The firo waa dis covered in time to save his house hold furniture. The’fire originated from a defect in the kitchen chim ney and ihe flames were blown from the kitebeu to the home. Mr. G. i; a clever hard-working young rrtan, and has just started to work his wav through the world. We are sorry that he has met with this misfortune. m re I . .v Qr Last week svo received a ■well written article from “Farmer,” relative to tbc State Agricultural Convention ; but as the Suggestions contained n it bad already been acted upon, it was not worth while to give it publication. We will bo glad to bear from “Farmer” again. An Emigrant Agent Conic to Grief Arrested for Attempting to Dk ’coy Hands—Bound over *n A Bond of $25.—11e Chances Bask. bast Wednesday morning three emigrant agents, Messrs. Meares, Watmnoeh and Keith, commenced operations in Hamilton, They stated their business was to obtain laborers to go west; and painted in g’owilig colors tho great advantages to bo gained by emigrating to a now and rich section of tho country, and they I ofl'ored astonishing inducements in the way of high wages,little work, hcaUli fiilness of localities, good lands and flue crops. The following is a speci men of their prices for labor: ‘j’arm ors,” they said, “are paying five cents a pound to have their cotton picked out.” Now, it takes about tlu'oc pounds of seed cotton to make ouo of lint; this would make tbo farmers pay fifteen cents a pound to have their cotton picked out; it sells at eleven cents on the market, and it is very plain, even to a man of no eyes whether or hot the farmer can come up to this, admitting he is willing to do so. As soon as the citizens here as certained the business of those agents; and saw it w r as likely to interfere with the interests of our farmers who have already contracted with their lalorers for this year, they turned to the statute-books, and opened at tho law which makes it a misdemeanor for any person to attempt to decoy a servant in the employment of another. Again, each emigration agent oper ating in a county shall pay a tax of one hundred dollars, to be collected by the tax 'collector. These agents were acting without having complied with this'latter law, and by interfer ing with co idr acted laborers had made themselves liable to a prosecu tion lor misdemeanor. The l.;x col lector was absent, aad there was no chance to collect the tax from them until bis return, which was expected on Friday. So, to gain time and put a stop to their demo;aliz’og influ ence among the negroes, Mr. Rag land, Thursday, sued out a warrant before E q. Williams against Mr, YVainiuock for atlemp ing to decoy one of Lie- hi>-ed feuds from his farm. The preltr.i'nary examiuaiion was held before E-q. Williams, and Mr. Wammock was bound over in a bond o? v .'5 to make his appearance at ■the next lavfu o" the Superior Court. Or!, ft O.j ... . itniTirc* for ihc prOS ecutiou, and Esq. Cameron and Blount for the defense. Wamtnock succeeded in giving a satisfactory bond, and early next morning the trio, with colors trailing in the dust, left ll;’m ilion, we hope to ret urn no more as emigra ion agents. A few infling negroes—too trifling to make con tracts here— followed them Saturday, and we are to sp re them; but onr respectable black people, ai;er the novelty of the thing was over, settled dow’u to their work, and now every thing seems to be working as well as if no “inciting’’ agents —wo heard a ten-year old boy give them this name —bad ever been here. We commend what our citizens have done; we do not favor boibg im posed upon as an individual nor as a community. There is a law to pro tect our lights, and we are surprised that it has not been put into execu tion in other counties. If the ne groes, of their own fee will, desire to leave Georgia, and can do better elsewhere, we have ho objection to their going ; but we are not wiling to have them stolen from us under false promises, to our detriment and their great injury ; both humanity and self-interest would lead us to de fend oftvsolves. Wild Cats, —The horn of the hunter is heard o’er the biffs of El - right often, and those who go out hunting geneval’y mean business. Messrs. Greer, Jenkius and others, caught two wild c.i 3 ip one mot tling last week, and ran a red fox over into Alabawa. Mi. J. says that ho has run this same fox for liie last thirteen years, and wou'dhave oangb.hitn last week if ho had not left the state. They claim to have the best dogs in the country, and what they fail to catch, is not worth the trouble of catching. Times Getting Better. —In rid ing a distance of sixteen miles through the country, last Friday, we saw only one whiteman, and two 1 s pads of negroes at work. Nearly ■ e- very cabin wo passed had one or unto “kinky 1;< ; >“ pa! J out of the door or window. T t was cold it is t".ie, hut a difightful day for split-j t'mg rads, and many of (lie dilapida ted fences by which we passed would be much fhebeter ofa few new ru'ls. Labor is not what it was iu palmy “antebellum” days but that will he no excuse for shooting your neigh bors cows next summer. Party at ,tho Parsonage. The night of tho third lldy of Feb ruary, 1870, will long be rdinemberod with grateful emolious by the in mates of tho Hamilton parsonage. Tho family had just nrisen from the supper in bio, and were awaiting the arrival of somo expected guests. A rap was heard at tho door, and Col. —and his excellent wife, the ex pected fiends, came in. A few tutu* ntes elapsed, when another rap was hoard. The door was opened, and, to oi’c surprise, two ladies walked in. Rap, rap, was hoard again and again, until wo found it useless to closo tlie door any more, but left it. thrown wide open for the reception of tbo flowing crowd. Of cou- se the preacher and family we a rejoiced to see so many of their I', ienda; but fit's joy Was so mingled with surprise, that expression of feel ing was impossible, so far as words could avail. The company seemed to bo much amused at our confused looks and express'O'v*. Tho door was closed again, and tho usual salumlioos of fr onds were passing around, when nco.ber rap was heavd at the doo- - , winch being opened, another crowd came h), bear ing in .heir aims cud on ibeir suoul de-s ever) thing w'.b which a p'each er’s larder should be filled. It would be 100 tedious to roeution what they brought and piled up in cue bote og caot’s mass lot' tho adjustment and and si faction of the family Thanks to all the f.
