Sim Cotton Chop.—* We continue to
ruocivo disastroUH news of the present
cotton crop in this section of Alabama,
riantorii inform us that tho crop within
tlm last month, ban been cut abort »t least
one third. It is shedding wry rapidly
and tho worms are dnlroying it in many
loonlilioH. This mtdeimholy nows goes
far to illustrate tho uncertainty of cotton.
A f«w weeks since, the prospects in Ain
11Aina (or a largo yield of cotton was not
only brilluut but unprooedoiilod. Now
tlio |.ros)R‘et is as gloomy as it was bright
then. IIoAvy and continuous rains ami
tlm worm Imvo done their work but loo

Dimtiikss in L’knhaqola.—Tlio Mont
gomery Mail coutuius o letter from a
merchant of lVnanvola, which says tlm
yellow fever in tliat oity has nut assum
ed a very malignant typo, but requires
most attentive nursing and watching.—
It says the young men of tho city have
formed themselves into an association to
attend the newly sick, hut as they are
not Miflieiont in numbers to relievo all, it
i-> desired to organise u corps of nurses
out of Urn Creole and colored popula
tion. To do which money is needed,
mid for it portion of it they appeal to
.of Montgomery. The wri
ter nays the population of I'ousacola are
very |*oor, and unless they can get ussis-
tame from abroad much distress must
ensue, la addition to the pay or unison,
i ho w riter ways, money is needed to de
fray other necessary cx|ienscs, such ns
medicines, bm inis, etc.
'Iho matter w as to have Wca submit
ted to tho people of Montgomery at tho
clmruhcs Inst Sunday. We have no
doubt the lover is of n malignant cWtr-
netor, and that great distress prevails.—
We suggest that something l*e done to
relieve tlio distress. Who will move
in llio charitable work ?—Columbia Sun.
A letter from Twiggs county says the
corn crop is the best they have had in
tw'Vlvo years, und everybody is prepnr-
in for the promised heavy cotton crop.
Onv DoMttmt, i’olUtrnt.
The Ai-j-sai, has never veered one
point from the course moppet out and
denned for itself, more than six months |
ago. Wo tiion mummed tho brDod
ground that llio best method to defeat
nnd ehi'ukmato tho rndical pally, who
nro our wont ohomics, was (o accede to
the call h»r n convention, mid seek by
every honorable means to regain our po-
siUon in tho family of Hiatus.
Wo have given our parole of honor
Vo itbMntn from all hostile acts, and
sworn in the oath of allegiance to sup
port mid defend the Constitution, oven
ufler the emancipation clause had boon
practically inter)s)lutud. We are there-
fore no longer a rebel, nnd intend in
good fuith to evince not only fidelity to
our own section, but loyalty to the whole
country.
Captious opposition to all measures of
reconstruction, and ii refusal even to al-
I fin pi llio restoration of tho Union, we
believe to lie suicidtd in efleet, and ut
varinneo with our implied obligations.
Congress leaves us free to frame our
Constitution, provided it bo Kepublioan
in form, and tint antagonistic to tho free-
loin of tho negro, and only reserves to
itself tho right to receive or reject the
same. Our manifest duty, thefcforo, is
t:» assemble in tho manner proscribed,
nnd endeavor by propor concessions und
:ouipromisoH, to obtain relief from the
intolerable timid- in of military rule,
and pluoe ourselves in a condition to
rognlate our own State and munieipal
a (fairs.
Hut wo may ho naked, what action o(
the Convention could bu aceuptnhle to
tho pooplo of Georgia? Unlike a por
tion of the press we nro not afraid to
answer. They rail nnd tako exceptions
to every method of settlement, and mig-
gust nothing. Wo are willing, and ov
er shall bo, to proclaim our views, nnd
honostly and earnestly to defend them.
Wo uunnimeo distinctly therefore,
that tho adoption in its entirely of the
Constitution of Mnnsaelnisetts, which
require evory votor to bo uldo to read
mill write, or that of the great State of
New York, which rest riots universal
sufliogo by property and i ntelluetual
pialitiontions, would be satisfactory to
us, nnd wo holiovo to the groat body of
our puoplu.
Much action would bo n poser to the
rfldicals also, nnd if thoy dared to stul
tify themselves by requiring a govern-
inout nt our hands which they refuse to
inaugurate for themselves, the injustice
and oppression of tho procedure would
bo too transparent for concealment. A
policy no disingenuous would overwhelm
tlio former before the country. Once
admitted into the Union, it would be
onsy afterwards to revise or strike out
such provisions in the Constitution ns
experience might demonstrate to ho in
expedient or hurtful to our in loro.tin.
For one, lliuroforu, wo are w illing to
try tho effect oT this mup d tint.

lowing is the plntform of principles
adopted by the colored men in tho Con
servative meeting hold in Columbus,
Go., on Bnlurdny last, the hist. tilt.—
The meeting was addressed by Jo
seph Williams and liunjumiii I Minus,
colored, of Tennessee:
We, tlm colored Conservative Union
men of Georgia, adept tho following
platform of priue.iplus:
I. We are in favor of the t'uion of the
Hinton under the Constitution ol the Uni
ted States.
‘2. Wo are the friends or pence and
civil law, nnd theses great (injects can
lie best promoted by legislation recogni
zing equal mid exact justice to all—ex
clusive privileges to rmno,
51. Wo nro in favor of tho immediate
restoration of our ilisftnehiHod fellow-oil-
ir.uiia to all rights, privileges and iimnu
uities, to full uud complete elliv,unship.
4. That our colored fellow-citizens,
being now oUmoiim of the United Stall s
and Georgia, mid voters, nro entitled to
all the rights ami privileges of citizens
uudur thu laws of the United Slut oh.
5. We are opposed to tho repudiation
ot tho Notional Debt, and wo nro in fa
vor of o.|uul taxation nsn proper math-
oil of paying the sumo.
". And we arc in favor of rope.ding
tlio heavy taxation which in imposed up-
on ii a, for wo believe it to bo unjust alto
gether.
7. We are in favor of penco and har
mony between tho moon ami equal polili-
enl rights to nil, nnd immediate enfran
chisement indiscriminately.
