The bill granting State aid to the Atlantic and Gulf IlailroailAto en- a l,!c tl»e company to extend its* line to Collat'd, thus consummating the oiiginal design (dthe projectors of the road by conWPtilP* t^^tlantic Ocean with.the ^■toi’hav ing pa.-sedL the ^ptjjt^Kas made the onier of the day in tlie House for to-day. In view of tin? great importance of this extension to our seaport and to the State at large, it is to be hoped that the bill will be promptly passed by the House. Apart from considerations’ of interest, the State having a large amount of money already invested in the road, it must be admitted that no public enterprise for the develop ment of tlie agricultural wealth and the promotion of the commerce of Georgia has superior, claims for State aid. .No railroad in the State has conferred greater benefits on the section of country traversed by it than the Atlantic and Gulf, and in* view of its becoming the Southern Atlantic terminus of the great South ern Pacific Hoad, it is second in im portance to no other railroad in the South. The following is the bill, which, having passed the Senate, is now pending in the House: A bill to be entitled an act to pro tect the interest of the State of Geor gia in the Atlantic and Gulf Rail road, and to’carrv out the original ujrjcct ol the charter of said road. Whereas, In the act of the Gener al Assembly of Georgia, incorpora ting the Atlantic and Gulf Railroad Company, it is declared to be the intention of the State to construct a main trunk road to couneet the At lantic Ocean with the Gulf of Mexi co; a ml whereas, for this purpose the State subscribed one million of dollars to tlie stock of said company, ami has now an interest in said road, including the payment of said stock and the property of said -com pany since accumulated, amounting to over two millions of dollars; and whereas^ the original purpose of said act of incorporation has not been carried out; and whereas, if said purpose is not consummated by completing the road'so as to reach the said Gulf of Mexico, the State runs great danger of losing all its present investments and interest in said road: Therefore, in order to protect the interests of the State, ami to enable the said company to accomplish the purpose of ite incor poration. Sr.e. 1.

But I shall tell x u more about theze things at sum fewter time.— Jos xi Billings in N. Y. Weekly. the Philadelphia Post: .To call axnan a “Colonel” is to to do still better. Always teed your hands as well as yourself, for the laboring men are the bone and sinew ol the land, and ought to be well treated. I am satisfied that early rising, in dustry anil regular habits are the best meditines ever prescribed lbr hcalrh. ■ Study your interest closely, and do not spend' vonr time fh electing Presidents, Senators, and other small officers, or talking of tiara tfrods when spending ycnxr time whittling store-boxes, etc? Take year time and make calcula tions. Don’t do things in a hurry, but-do them at the right time and employed.—Ruralist. Concerning Colonels.—The too profuse use of the title of “Colonel” elicits these pertinent remarks from meek,' and benevolent disposition, tuhr also an evidence that he never was a soldlffr. For instance, we may recall some of the Colonels of Phila delphia. There is Colonel Forney, Colonel McClure, McMiehadQ Colo nel Scott, Colonel Mann, Colonol Fitzgerald, Colonel Phillips, Colouel Hinchen, Colonel Green, andColoiiel Fritz. * Of what regiment? And we might mention many more gentlemen of high standing who have never been in the army, and can only be called “Colonel” as a tribute to their antipathy to blood. If every Colonel was a soldier, the standing army in iladelphia would be g, menace to liberties--. Their number is as t as it was in Sqn Francisco, to which John Phoenix bears witness in tim following story: The steamboat was leaving the wharf, and every body was taking leave of friends— all but Phoenix, who had no friend to bid him farewell. Ashamed of., his loneliness, as the boat sheered off, he called out,' in a loud voice, “Good bye, Colonel!” and to liis great de light, every man on the wharf took off his hat and shouted, “Colonel, good-bye J” Tlie Great Farmer’s Maxims. The successful life of Mr. Jacob Strawn, the priace of American farm ers, is atti ibuted to the close obser vation of the following maxims origi nated by himself. When you wake up, do not roU over, but out. It will give jou time to ditch all your slougljS, break them, harrow them. Make your fencing high and strong and tight, so that it will keep the cattle and pigs out. If you have brush, make your lot secure and keep your hogs li’orii the cattle; for if the corn is' kept clean, they will eat it better than if it is not.

I Executive Depabtmest, Jeffhkson Qi-ry, Aug. 8, 187?. Gcntbemcn of the Committee: I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your communication ad vising me that- I had been unani mously nominated as candidate for the Vice-Presidency’ of the United States at Baltimore. For this mark of confidence on the part of so large a representative body of my fellow- citizens I cannot too deeply express my gratitude. The distinction is one which I feel to be in a grbat measure undeserved, where so many more suitable' cpuld have been found, and yet should your action be con firmed I shall'endeavor to discharge the duties of that high place with fidelity to your trust, with devotioh to tlie public intei-est, and with in flexible resolution to prove not un worthy of such choice. The fact that it reposes also upon the declaration of principles affirmed by the Liberal Republicans at Cincinnati, and pro claimed without' amendment by the Democratic party at Baltimore, gives assurance that in this . com bined expression there is sought only the deliverence of the nation from £ present great peril to its peace and liberties. To that end all minor considerations have been sub ordinated, and an illustration pre sented to the country of unselfish patriotism rather than stickling lor party advantage, which should con vince all of the perfect sincerity of this movement. It has involved no surrender on either part of any former convictions. It has not been negotiated or .bargained. Its origin was ii-om the people. • Though ’ dif fering in the past or. some issues of great, magnitude, yet, now that they arc settled, there is hearty concur rence between u3 all upon the vital question agitating the public mind. What conduct of national affairs that involves your convention has well set. forth in its- # platform, and its true accord With the Democratic ideas that guided our earlier admin istrations is the best guarantee that it will restore equal rights, tranquil develo^bieat, and constitutional rule. Permit me, also gentlemen, through you, to express my thanks to the great masses of your party who have sine# ratified the action with such signal unanimity, aniKo say to them, in accepting this their nomination, I do sd believing there is'nothing in honor or in conscience that should prevent the most cordial co-opera tion henceforth-in behalf of the poli ties presented that a severe illness ha3 intervened since the reception of your commu- ication, w’hiclt has delayed this re ply until my recovery and return home.
