In pursuance to a call made upon the citizens of Americus-to moke some pub lic manifestation of regard, on account of the death of General Robert E. Lee, at on early hour yesterday morning pre parations for tho commemoration of thi- sod event begain, and progressed, nntil each one felt tlia importauts of tho dry before them. As early as the afternoon of the 13th, some of our houses were drapodin a beautiful and appropriate manner, and by nine o'clock yesterday the whole city wore the appearance of mourning. Tho business houses were closed, the Superior Court which was in session had adjourned for the day, and Americus presented a perfect Sunday appearance. All of tho stores and busi ness hoaRcs were diaped in mourning and the Court House was tastefully fes tooned with crape around tho entire building. According to arrangement a procession was formed at 10 a. m. at the Hall of Wi’de Awake Fire Company with the Americas Brass Band in front, followed by the Wide Awake Fire Company No. 1, Protection No. 2, Hook And Ladder Company, Independent Order of Good Tempters, B’ Braitli, Masonic Fraternity, City Council and Mayor, and a large concourse of citizens. The procession moved off under command of Col. Jno. V. Price, Marshal of the day; marched down the east side of the Square and proceeded to tho Lawn of Moj. Furiow. On arriving at that place, the Fire Depart ment opened ranks, allowing tho proces sion to passthrough, and proceeded to the stand erected for the pnrposo of hearing addresses. Here, Mayor R. C. Black moved that Col. A. S. Cutts be called to tho chnir, and that F. A. Bnrke Esq. act as Secretary, which was unanimously adopted. On taking the Chair, Col. Catts announced the object of tbe meeting in a few pertinent remarks. Prayer was then offered by Dr. G. F. Cooper after, whicli Col. W. A. Hawkins in a few feeling and appropriate remarks introduced the fol lowing Resolutions. At nine and a half o’clock cn the morn ing of the 11th instant, an unexorable fiat of Johovah called 4 Kobebt E. Lee, to his last resting place. Immediately the lightning passed the sad news to all parts ot tbe world. Therefore, we the citizens of this city and surrounding countiy, without refer ence to differences, and actaatatcd by a common sympathy, having come togeth er to consider of him who is no more in this world ; be it, therefore, Resolved, That wo join our profound bereavment in this great loss, and, with sad hearts, express onr high appreciation of his noble qualities as a soldier, a citi zen and a Christian gentleman; be it, Resolved, Further, That in token of onr high regard we suggest that a more en during monument be erected to his name by those who bewail liis loss and honor his fame, be it, Resolved, Further, That wo request tho city papers and all other papers who love the memory pf the great captain, to copy these resolutions. After the resolutions were read, Col. Fry, of Decatur,lieing present, addressed tho assembly in an appropriate eulogy of General Lee, giving all of tho prominent acts of the great man’s life, and closing with a fine exemplification of his great- cliristian warrior. Ho was fol lowed by Jno. D. Carter Esq., who de livered one of tho most beautiful enlogios it has ever been our good fortune to listen to. Chaste, rhetorical and refined, it was a fit tribute of one of Virginia’s most promising sons, to her mighty dead. His speech abounded in that deep pathos, so appropriately felt on the occasion, and the rapt attention in which he held his audience for the half hour he spoke, showed that ho had touched a chord in the heart of that vast assemblage, in per fect unison with Iris ovu. His closing remarks was a glowing heart-offering to tho memory of the great soldier, states- , and scholar, and the feeling mani fested by the orator and audience, show ed that the affections of the people were wrapped in the snbject beforo them. Dr. Wilburn then delivered one of his soul-stirring earnest addresses, after which the meeting adopted the Resolu tions of Col. Hawkins unanimously. A few feeling remarks were made by Col. Jno. V. Price and Col. Cutts, and tho meet ing adjourned with tho benediction by Dr. Wilburn. Amoric’.is turned ont en masse to pay this homage to t'*e great Southron. The ladies lent beauty'to the occasion by their preseneo, and showed tho depth of feeling that pervaded their hearts by tbe interest they manifested iu the exercises. Although it was iu open air, and the sun rays grew warm aud unpleasant towards tho closo of tho addresses, they still re mained, sad, sorrowful, attentive and beautiful. Tho piocea selected by the Brass Bond ere deep solemn dirges; quite appropri ate to the occasion. A Word to our Friends.-^ince oar advent into the city, seventeen years ago, we have labored asaidnonsly fer the interests of Americas, with what success we leave the public to determine. Wo have invested largely in 'preparing to do ull. manner of work in the printing line, and it doe* seem to ns that onr citizen iught to snstaiu home oat.-rprisi* rather’ thau send their work abroad, when it can be done us neat, and as cheap at home as elsewhere.- Thousands of dollars are sent away from Americas by our merchants and business men yearly, for work, that can be done in Americus. We can dupli cate any job of printing at as low rites as any respectable printing establishment in the Sooth. Connected with this es tablishment, are four heads of families, and the same nmnb?r of single persons, who spend their daily earnings among our merchants, making in the aggregate quite a large sum. We feel then that we have the right to claim a more liberal patronage from the business men of this place than is bestow ed upon ns. There is no place in the South, with the population of Americas, where as little ; atronnge is extended to tho press, os in this place. There are one hundred and fifty business houses in Americas, and ont of that number but twelve make their business known through our columns. We could fill up onr entire apace with foreign advertisements were we disposed to do so, but wo prefer depending upon tho patronage of our onn merchants to sustain our paper. We do not believe in bnilding up other merchants at the ex pense of our own. When our merchants and business men fail to extend to us a sufficient amonut of patronage, to sustain the paper, wo will no longer carry on the business, on as large a scale as wo hare been doing. The expense of carrying on the bust ness of this office is six hundred dollars per month, which we are compelled to meet. The business of the offioe is suf ficient to meet the heavy expense if sorry to say, doing their duty in this respect. Some of them seem to get offendea when a bill for subscription or advertising is present ed them. \\ e have on onr books from eight to ten thousand dollars due us, and it with great difficulty at times that we can collect enough to pay off the hands in the office. These accounts most be collected. We have too much confidence in our friends to suppose for one moment that they will see us suffer by the loss of this largo amount._The “laborer is worth largo amount, ilie ••laborer is worthy of his hire.” Wo have worked faithfully for our patrons, and we hope they will not forgot us in this onr time of need. A member of the firm will wait upon all onr city patrons to-day and we hope that all will cheerfully respond when lie calls npon them. The subscription price of the Tki-Weeklv Repblican in only six dollars a year when paid in advance. In every iustouce where a party fails to pay, the paper will be stopped. ’ Wo have a high and exalted opinion of onr pat rons, and feel satisfied that they will never allow us to suffer for the want of On yesterday morning about the hour of half past two,'onr city was aroris- cd-by tho alarm of fiife. Proceeding iu the direction of the’ bright light in the eastern portion of the city, wo soon as certained that it was the elegant resi dence of Col. W. A. Maxwell, and by the time ye reached ,Ui* spat, the housu.wa> :of» far enveloped in flange* tu.fitv* eitin- gnished. Unfortunately Col* Maxwell had just left a d»y or two ago for Lis plantation, and no one but f «• ladies of the ho rse were at home. The flames pro gressed m rapidly that it was impossible to save but little witi* the small help the family had at first, and with the excep tion of the parlor and sitting loom furni ture, and one or two trunks of ilothiug, •ntire contenth qf this beautiful 'man- were destroyed. Oar Fire Oompa- were promptly on the ground and did all that could' have been done under tho circumstances. The loss will amount to §15,000. Wo understand that the premises were insured for §12,000. This fire was undoubtedly the work of an in- oeadiai/. yy yC~P ft \ fjf M There is one act connected with this calamity, dosenring particular mention, which caused a display ot bravery and courage, never surpassed, and but seldom equaled, and which marks its anthor os a perfect heroine. Miss Sallie Maxwell, her efforts to save everything of value in the honse, that she could, was delayed in the second story of the building nntil the firo had destroyed tho lower story, much, that there was danger of the walls falling in every minute. Seeing her dan ger, she gathered a few articles for the purpose of taking a final leave of the house. On entering the hall from the room she was in, to Iser horror and dis may she saw that the stair-way was iu a solid sheet of fiamo. There only one way of escape now, anil that was through the front windows of the second story, where the fiery element had not communicated itself. Going out on tho top of the colona-le her awful sit uation was immediately realiz d by the crowd below, and tho anxiety depicted on every countenance showed tho deep feel ing that stirred tho soul of every one.— A ladder was brought but it was short to reach tbe roof, and was of avail. With the crackling flames behind and around, and making tho most rapid headway imaginable, every moment precious beyond computation. The only chanco for life uow, was to jump from the high placoon which she was standing. A mattmss was brought and being firmly held by strong men, with a spirit daunted and intrepid—she made the leap from the point she oecupiod, embracing in its curve at least thirty feet, reaching the ground wilh comparative safety, anti, with the exception of the shock and enssion of so high n jump, entirely hurt. Attention !

This omission was not discovered nntil too late to make the corrections.. This we regret ex ceedingly, as we consider them among the best we have seen. We repnblish them this morning, as they were origin ally handed in the office. IN MEMORY OF GEN. R. E. e LEE. A meeting of the pnpils of Furiow Masonic Female College, was called in the Chapel, on Friday Oct 14th, at 4 o’clock’ Americas A Nrwnnn Railroad. Mabion Covntv, Oct. 14,1870. How shall wo proceed to raise funds for building the Americus & Ncwnan Rail road ? is a question which is now perplex ing the minds of many of ns. No great undertaking requiring the expenditure of thousands and hundreds of thousands of dollars con ever be successful and, more particularly at a time like the present when we see our whole country involved financial confusion and rain, without a well conceived and ably executed plan for raising money and one which will not en danger involving those who embark in it. The extent of tho Road is about 110 miles through n country unsurpassed in tho State for its fertility, with Mie excep tion of a few miles. Within five miles of this road on each side, uilowiu > 0-10 acres to the square mile, there are 70-1,(XK) acres of land. Within ten miles on each side there is 1.408,000 acres. I j-ropuee that tboso who live within five mites of the contemplated road give their Alert gage Bonds with interest from date, for the payment of one dollar per aere for all tho land they own lying within that dis tance, and those that live beyond five and not exceeding ten, give theirs on the samo terms for 50 cents i*er acre and tike stock to the amount of their Boa-.K— These Bonds could bo sold as needed in the city of Now York for §1,03(1,000, thus enabling ns to lmild the road ourselves with what aid wo would get from sources, witiiont State The Americus District Sunday School and Missionary Convention.

The dis enssion of the various subjects presented in the programme was carried on with great'unanimity, and no little ze^. Most of those-who spoke waxed warm, even to eloquence. Both the Sunday School and Missionary causes as pertaining to the Americas District and to the M. E. Church South, were pretty thoroughly canvassed, new ideas were called forth, fresh zeal inspired, and mnch interest awakened in well nigh all who were pres ent. The Convention was somewhat of an experiment hut such was the interest manifested that it was resolved to hold another Convention iu Cathliert, nl>ont the last of April next year. The citizens of Botsford and surround ing country vied with cucli other in en tertaining those committed to their care during the session of the Convention. Some of them could not get company enough. Wo are sure there was not one who was not delighted with the country, and especially with the citizens. A nobler, more generous and freer hearted, we have not seen anywhere, than the good people about Botsford. The venerable Dr. L. Pierce, in tho eighty-sixth year of his age, and the sixty- sixth of his ministry, uow the energetic and efficient Sunday School Agent of tho Sonth Georgia Conference, was present, to cheer by his presence, and stimulate and encourage with his command. Hit sermons delivered during the Convention, and on Sabbath following, were replete with thought and full of power. There is no man like him. He is tho Paul of this age. The Convention closed on Saturday the 15th inst. when, most of the delegates left for their homes, some remained to par ticipate iu the exercises of the quarterly meeting.

IJy this arrangement the road would bo built, would hare ten years to pay for tho building and no possible financial de rangement of the country could involve the stockholders. If we were not able to take up our bonds we could sell. our shares of stock, and it ur my opinion thir) tho road would uearly pay for itself that timo. Supposing that some prefer doing work on the road to the amount of their Bonds instead of having them sold ; they could do so.

The late Convention, which assembled at Newnan, imposed upon me tho duly of procuring subscriptions to aid in the construction of the contemplated Road from this place to Newnan. This ap pointment was unsolicited on toy part, ns well as unexpected, and I would greatly have prefeired that tho responsibility should have been conferred npon f who has more leisure, and could ert a more controling influence in favor of an enterprise of such vital importance to Americus, as I conceive this to be.- But feeling, os I do, that every man wli desires the future prosperity of Amor cus, should do something to promote the interest of this work. I do not feel am attiiberty to decline the appointment, aud, therefore, say to the frien road, in Snmter and adjoining that the books are now open, u now ready to receive their subscriptions.
