Williß Moore ol the Herald, and Genne Speer of the Star, approach the subjects of potatoes aud tomatoes cautiously. Yet the caretull ob server can see that they are anxious to describe them, but fear. Willie Moore of the Atlanta Herald, learns that there is a very large potato iu that city but declines to describe it. Unfortunately, it was just at that “period” of the month when he looks arouud alter his veracity. Tub Home Courier of the 80th says: The ex hibition of the Fair Association last Saturday was very scant and elicited but little attention. A fafr specimen of the Cooley corn, grown by Judge Perry, was on the table, together with a sample of meal ground from the corn of thia year’s growth. The Thomaston Herald says that in that office is “ a cabbage stalk with twenty-two perfect heads; these heads are of a diminutive order and are so arranged on the stalk as to form a perfect pyram'd ot heads. It was raised in the garden of Mr. B. B. White.” ■ The Thomasvllle Times, heretofore bearing the highest character for Integrity, and so far as we are concerned, still maintains it, has the follow ing : “We have been shown a well developed chicken, with four perfect legs and three eyes; one beiug on the top of the head, and the other two lu the usual places. ’’ The Rouje Courier says: Bailiff John Nevells ahot and lataliy wounded Mr. T.

Roper's stable some months since. The negro was very insulting in his manner, and passing Mr. Hill began to curst him. Bill started toward the ue gro to resent the insult, when Neyeils ordered him to stop. Hill continued to advauce upon the negro, when R T e?e)U deliberately pulled ont his pistol aud shot him in the byeast, the bgll ranging downward aud lodging lu the bowels, producing a wound from which be died the next day. Thb Atlanta Constitution has the following : Col. Geo. W. Adams, Deputy of the State Grange, organised a Grange, known as the Atlanta Grange, In this city, last Wednesday, with 26 members.

The Nature and Aims of tbe Order of Patrons of Husbandry. Interesting Letter from Dr. J. P. Btevens, Deputy Ist, 2d and 3d Congressional Dis tricts. From tbe Albany News.] In response to your kind invitation to publish a few thoughts iu your valuable paper, explana tory of the nature and alms of the Order f Pa trons of Husbandry, I deem it necessary to occupy but a small space in your columns. The Order has but recently been prominently brought before the planters of our Btate, os our State Grange was organized in April last, with a membership of sixteen subordinate Granges. From its inception, however, its march has been steadily onward, enfolding within its embrace al most every planter who has been made properly to comprehend its magnificent plans and designs. And how could it be otherwise? In almost every other fine of business, conduct ed upon an expensive scale, associated action for tbe mutual interest of cliques, rings and moneyed interests, has ever been patent to the most super ficial observer; and the apparent design of these associations has been to wrest from the tillers of the soil the legitimate fruits of their daily toil. The depressed condition of the farming interests of the South and West, shows that they are pros trated under the weight of some fearful incubus that keeps them fettered to the ground. The provisions of the Western producer, in un measured abundance, offered a revenue scarcely sufficient to cover his taxes. Hundreds of millions of dollars worth of cotton annually produced at the South at the closing of each year’s operations, finds the planter more and more impoverished. Why this anomalous state of things? The railroad interests combine to put such a prohibitory tariff upon the transportation of the Western producer’s corn as to force him to con sume it for fuel, as an item of economy. The Wall Street brokers unite their immense moneyed capital for the depression of the price of cotton, until the latter passes out of the hands ol the producer, and is held firmly within the grasp of the specnlator. The consequence is that the middle-men and brokers accumulate collossal fortunes, while the tillers of the soil, who brave the wiuter’s frecaiug blasts, the summer's swelling heat and tbe me phitic exhalations from the swamps, are com pelled to mumble the crumbs that fall from the tables of those who fare sumptuously every day. And whom shall we blame for our position as pensioners upon the bounty of our superiors in mental acumen, and even common sense ? They have the right to employ their intellects and their money for their own aggrandisement, so long as they keep within tbe bounds of honesty and truth. If we foolishly recline our heads upon the lap of ignorance and indolonce, and sleep while others are working, we may rest assured that our locks will be shorn, and, like the Naza rite of ancient times, we will wake to find our selves helpless and poverty-stricken. The magic wand, that converts everything that it touches into gold, is co-operative combination for the accomplishment of the end to be attained. In every other department of business but that of the agriculturist, tnis almost omnipotent agency is properly appreciated and skillfully applied. How is it with the planters ? Each of us seems to thins himself a Solon in wisdom, and a Rotchrehild in financial acumen. But alas ! how self-deluded 1 Each carries his individual line of business without concert of action, or co operation in the accomplishment of any definite purpose, and con sequently without wealth, power, influence or success. The insignittcant cotton worm, that can indi vidually be crushed by the weight of one’s Anger, is now causing us to tremble with apprehension lest he employ his numerical strength to lay waste our fields, and blast our brightest prospects of golden returns. Cannot we learn a simple lesson of wisdom by reading a page from Nature’s open book? We have the elements of wealth untold, would we properly utilize them. A strength which, if judiciously applied, would make us a power in the land to be respected and appreciated through all the ramifications of society. What we need for the development of our re sources, are wise concert of action, and intelligent combination for mutual protection and mutnal profit, Now this ideal phantom which has so long per vaded the minds of multitudes, finds an embodi ment electrified with herculean strength, in the Order of the Patrons of Husbandry; an offspring of necessity, an infant in age, yet a giant in intu ence and power. The object of this association is to elevate the planter socially, intellectually and financially. The plaoter, by education and habit, is dissocial —his daily routine of business demands his per sonal supervision of his laborers, and the diuter nal management of his farm. When the day closes, he seeks, in sleep, repose from bis labors. From long habit and the tutelege ot his fathers, he is firmly impressed with the conviction that his method of conducting his business is superior to that of bis neighbors. He feels not the necessity for assistance, and consequently does not seek it This routine of business continues from week to week, and from year to year; and the tendency of his occupation is to contract his habiu of thought, and to a mis taken feeling of Independence, which tends to is olation and disregard of those agencies arising from attrit on of ideas that leads to progress aud reform. Now at the monthly reunions ol the members of a Grange, they are bronght into friendly association. The bonds of fraternity, which unites them as with bands of iron, and the application of which is “gentle as a silken thread thit binds a wreath of flowers,” infqses a spirit qf friendship andsyrn? pathy, in all that concerns the welfare of one an other. Unity of sentiment and unity of iuterest inspire unity of action with mutual confidence. The elevated code of mora]e recognised in our government tends to soften the asperities of our natural instincts, to cultivate in us sentiments of benevolence and charily towards all men, and to impress us with a sense of our mutual dependence and obligations to extend to one another oqr sym : pathy and assistance, in times of sickness and'ad versity, and our congratulations in seasons of prosperity and joy. We are also taught that as cultivators of the earth, while we reap the golden harvest that springs from her ever willing and bounteous bosom, we should ever cultivate these scions of fraternity, amity and fsith, that spring from the tree of Truth, and that will bear for us fruits of joy and peace in the Paradise above. The intellectual aspects of our Qrder present to our notice considerations of no unworthy impor tance. You will observe that every subject which can improve the condition of the Patrons Is brought up for discussion. It is the duty oi tbe Lecturer to gather food for mental study and re flection upon all subjects connected with the art and science of agriculture; to collect information relating to the beneficent operations and progress of the Order j and to invite a desire for inquiry and mental improvement among the membership. The spirit of amity and friendship inculcated and practiced, induces them to present their views freely and unreservedly, wjUjout incurring the risk of harsh criticism. Reciprocal confidence is? apirt* the unrestrained attrition of ideas aud elic its truth. Here there ji a contia ued incitement to ma "*f | FORSYTH. GEORGIA, TUESDAY MORNING, AUGUST 5, 1873. cultivation and progress, and the Grange is con verted into a school of agriculture aud education. It has been urged as an objection to our Order, that the accumulation ot immense capital and in fluence will be likely to attract political harpies and financial tricksters, who would endeavor to prevent the legitimafc aims of the Association, and use it as an agent for their individual ag grandizement, and for unworthy objects. But aside from tbe safeguard vouchsafed in the terms of admittance to membership, imposed by the Constitution, requiring the actnal cultivation of the soil as laborer or controller of tenants; the conservatism which has always characterized the planter as a class, will prove powerfully antago nistic against tbe schemes ol these subtle intrigu ers. The simple habits of the farmer, and his constant and daily practice of habits ot integrity, stimula ted by the necessities of his vocation, will impel on his part a scrutiny of the actions of the wily money changer, and induce caution and circum spection in reposiDg confidence in those who are of doubtful veracity und integrity. Moreover, we have the advantage of all other associations and combinations of men, in the magic influence of woman. Her purity of thought and life, her innate sense of justice, and her natural prescience in reading hnman character, and intuitively arriv ing at true and just conclusions, apparently with out any intermediate steps of mental effort, ren der her a powerinl helpmeet In this union for mutnal protection and advancement. She is an integral portion of the organisation, and not a mere silent spectator of passing events, and her influence is for good and conservatism. The financial benefits arising from co-operation among planters will probably be regarded by many as the benefit par excellence. The iron mon gers, the manufacturers, and the merchants de mand a deflinite price for their wares and the rail roads a voluntary tariff upon transportation of passengers and freight, and they make such com binations as enable them to enforce their de mands. The planter, upon whom all these various cor porations and companies are dependent for their existence. Is not allowed to put a price upon his cotton, but meekly takes what is offered him. All of the articles consumed upon his farm pass through several intermediate agencies after leav ing the manufacturer before they reach him. Each agent, iu his turn, pockets his bonus lor hand ling, and the farmer foots up the bills. Now the object of our Association is to bring the producer and manufacturer in direct commu nication. It is true that no individual planter can raise cotton enough to induce direct intercommu cation, but, by combination and union of effort among different Granges, this object can be ac complished, and the profits which now inflate the pockets of middle-men will stop many a leak that has so effectually drained the finances of the planter. Again, the immense patronage which, so controlled by the Patrons, enables them to ne gotiate transactions with dealers in groceries, and manufacturers of mechanical implements, wag ons etc., at the lowest possible prices at which such products and articles of manufacture can be sold. Indeed a duduction of 15 to 35 per cent, from ordinary rates has been offered to the Fh trons. Not an insignificant item in the saving of ex penses in the great reduction in rates of transpor tation of freight made by our railroads in lavor of our Order. Iu some instances it is said to amount to 50 per cent, below the ordinary rates. Now after a hasty review of some of the advan tages offered by our Order, allow me to ask if any other Society, secret or otherwise, has ever ac complished, for the benefit of the larmer, one half as much as the Patrons are now doing, even in their infancy? We cannot see anything objec tionable in its aims and working, but everything to commend. The Order is a nsceisi/y, without which our descent to the lowest depths of pover ty and ruinous disintegrations Is inevitable. This is an age of gigantic schemes of moral corruption that threatens to subvert the whole order of soci ety, and muae shipwreck of our liberties. The moral force of the yeomanry of the land, of the plain, honest farmers united by bauds of fra ternity, is needed to neutralize the effect of these immense corporations that employ millions of treasure in purchasing the consciences of legisla tors for the purpose of carrying on the nefarious schemes of plunder and robbery; and often at the expense of the agriculturallnterests. And, we may ask, what position does the farmer occupy in the legislation of his country? With what cold in difference to any scheme considered for the de; velopmeut of the agricultural interests of the States, and tor the promotion of the cause of ag ricultural education. Now we wish our interest represented by men who have the ability and moral courage to maintain the cause of agricultu ral progress, and press its claims of irresistible force. It is not our desire or purpose to interfere and affect injuriously the interests of any legiti mate corporation, company or individual, but, we conceive it to be our duty, privilege and ability to employ our resources lor the promotion of our own in any honest and practicable way. And now farmers of Southwestern Georgia and throughout the land, we invite you to come aud enlist under the banner of progress and reform. Join the noble army of Patrons and employ your moral, intellectual and material force, for over coming the barriers which interpose your march for deliverance from the dangers which threaten your financial ruin. Stimulated by a conviction of the justness of your cause, impelled by the irresistible power of truth, and encouraged by the suceess which has heretofore trampieu upon all obstacles that inter pose your progress, your march will be onward and upward, conquering and to conquer, and gen erations yet unborn will rise up and call you blessed.
