Pianophone.—Tlds is a new musical instrument invented by a Parisian gentle man us an accompaniment to the Piano. We were invited by Professor Henri Pal ing to hear him perform on this instru ment a few days since, and our conviction ia that piano music is imperfet. without the “ Phone, ” which combines the melo dy of tho round swelling notos of a rich- toned organ with the piercing notes of the clarionet and bagpipe. Tt is a hand some parlor onamout, very small, being not over two feet in length and is operat ed somewhat like a Mclodeon, having the treadle, bellows and keys, yet is small enough to bo placed in a trunk and will fold for that purpose.. The Pianophono showed us by Prof. Henri Paling resembles a minatnre or gan of thirty octave, which is played with the right hand while the left hand plays tho ordinary Piano. By this act the melody is litcrallj sang and as the Pinnopbone has four stops (vex humani, clarionet, hautboy and forte) a variety of sounds and melody is produced that one can scarcely realize. It is the satellite to tho Piano. It was imported from Franco at great expense to Prof. Paling, proved by the Custom-House papers In order that our citizens may have a chance to hear tho music of this wonder ful little instrument, Mrs. M. E. ltobin d Professor Paling will give a Con cert on Thursday evening. September WTha D. G. W. O. T., O. W.

A Good Movement The planters of Marion county, Ya, have formed an association to be called the "Marion Branch of the Cotton States Association,” tho main objects of which are set forth ia the two following resolu tions : 1. Not to plnnt more than 01 third of onr cultivated lands hereafter cotton, and the other two thirds we agree to plant iu the cereals. 2. We solemnly agree that we shall not dispose of any cereals made by us to any planter not agreeing to the proposition herein tained.—Atlanta Intelligencer. Yon are wrong, bro. Steele, we think, in the above. It was not the planters of Marion county, Virginia, that formed the Association and resolved ns above, but the planters of Marion county, Georgia. It ia .t capital move in the right direction, and wo had Iiojx-d to other counties follow the good example, tve fear our hopes arc to be disap pointed. However, a few more largo guano purchasers and large crops at small prices will assist tLe formation of the above Association. To break up the farmers present idea oi farming, pocket must be at tacked first. , JEW BANKRUPT LAW. It will be remembered that the Bank rupt Act of March 2,1807, expired by its own limitations January 1, 1S69. After that time no one could avail himself of the benefit of that Act, unless his estate was sufficient to pay fifty cents on the dollar. Thus the law stood until about the close of the last session of Congress, when it was enacted thnt any person may be discharged from all his debts created before the 1st .day. of January, 1809, whether his estate is equal to fifty cents on the dollar or not. If debts have been crested since that time, the dis charge will only operate against the debts created prior to the 1st of January, Late Saturday evening as a wagon load of colored ladies and gentlemen were leaving the city, and on tho extreme West ern cad of Lamar street, the lead moles became unmanageable and in turning about upset the wagon, letting the whole load into the dust of the street. Ye Gods! what a yell rent tho air of that qniet Sat urday evening! Each separate nigger yelled as only a scared nigger can yell, and by “ the rolling of their eyes ** one would have thought that the last nig. was in tho throes of death. Ah soon as it was ascertained that no ono was hurt, there was as much ivory gleaming throngh the mass of dust, as there were " stars in the calm azure sky. ” The wagon was quickly righted, the mules straightened out, the living load reseated and U10 merry “Ki, Yi! ” of the happy sons and daughters of old Ham told that the scare was over, and they proceeded on their homeward way “ as merry as a marriage belL ” 1869. As there axe few persons, who have contracted debts since that time, which they are unable to pay, the law as it now stands, will afford all the relief the peo ple may require, if they choose to sur render their property, except that'which "— k—*-./— —J still exempt — heretofore, v der the provisions of the old law.—Ex.

The Judge would act wisely if he would turn that cow over to the butcher. Religious.—We learn from Rev. J. B. McGehee, who returned from Dawson on Monday, that the revivals were still pro gressing in the Baptist and Methodist Churches. The former had received five by baptism and sorao by letter.
