The Momoi Cuun‘y Agrieu! uni Society con vened in tbe Court-Louse on Sataiday last, at 10 o’clock a. 11. Tbe President being absent, Col. Crowder was called to tbe chair. The minutes of last meeting were read and approved. The Sec retary stated that i.i obedience to instructions, the delegates to the last State Convention bad entered Monroe county for tbe county premicm at tbe approaching State Fair. He bad called one or two meetings of tbe Society since, and only three or lour members tad attended. Had talked to many ab jut it, but could get np no enthusiasm. Tbe people seemed cold ar.d indifferent. Ha had received a communication from the Soeretery of •.he State Agricultural Association, stating that be bad learned, from “semi-official rumors,” that Monroe county had declined to contend for the county premium at tbe said Fair, and asking to know the truth of said rumors. He (the Secreta ry of Moroe Society) wished to know how to an swer the Secretary ot State Society. Will Monroe make an effort, or back down lrom tbe routesl? That was me question we had met to-day to an swer. B. H. Napier moved that we do compete lor the premiums. Thought it was a rare opportunity to exhibit tbe resources of the country,—knew it was a busy season, and in the midst ot tiuancial pressure ; but thought our first determination a wise one, and we should stick to it. Mr. O. Holla .id thought the time too short; he would not he willing to contend with the pros pect of being beaten. He knew that our resources are immense—thought that Mouroe whs equal to uny eonuty iu the State, but tbit ibe lime is 100 short to do hcraell juitice iu such a cuitest as this. J. R. Banks thought we should not let the op porlunlty pass to bring before the world the ex cellencies and beauties of Monro., county. Other counties, doubtless, were no more .orward than ourselves, and we, being nearer ibe tceue ol exhi billon, wouid bave an advantage over them. G. M. Rhodes said there was too little enthusi asm among tue people—they are busy now wim other matters lrom which It is bard todiveit their attention. Capt. Napier read a letter iioui K. Tayli r (who was unable lo attend), expreabi. g hi* ui qualified uppr .baliou ol tbe uiaveiucui lo enter the con test. U. O. Banks was anxious to have ihe couuty represented. Thought it was not too late yet to take the first premium; and that it was better lor her to take the second thau none at all. Capt. Fonder admitted his ardor had been dampened by the indifference ol the people. The people were not alive to the importance of the occasion. Tue county, however, might succcss -1 ally compete lor the premium. Two years ago when the proposition lor ho.dmg a Fair was first broached, the people were as cold und indifferent us now. But in a short time iht-y made a display thut astonished everybody. Thought we could do so again. Visitors will- attend the Fair from all putts of the United States; aud Monroe can make such an exhibition hs will Bj rt-ad her name and fame far und wide. Thought If we determine to compete, we should have a County Fair. Al low two days lor said Fair, sr that people may compare, rein force, and make tho very best dis play possible. Monroe was riot afraid ot compe tion '1 tu Piifidtnt, Col. Crowder, lilt void, but did not th.uk we should back down now. Let every man go to woik, do his best, and spur up his neighbor; wus proud ol Mouroe, and hoped to see her always come out wilt, (lying colors; knew sho could do Lcrsell honor if every man would lay hold and devote h!s spare lime to preputatior. Cupt. Napier’s motion was put to the society, and eatried unanimously. Mr. O. Holland stated iliat the die wus cast, and he would now enter the contest with as much z al as any man. 110 therefore moved that we declare ourtelves a committee and meet every Saturday until the Fair. Said motion was carried. G. M. Rhodes moved we hold a County Fair on the 23d and 24th of October (Thursday and Fri day) preceding tbe State Fair. Adopted Mr. O. Holland moved tho President appoint a committee ot seven to make preliminary ar raugemeuts tor said Fair, on the adoption ol which mol ion tho President tqpiinted the tallowing Committee: G. M. Knout's, G. A. Cabanisj, Andrew Di nn, J. M. Ponder, S. D. Mobley, VV. A. Pyk, VV. 11. Meek. On motion the Society adjourned to meet ou Saturday next, at 10 o’clock, a. m , at which all citizens ol the county are requested to he present. J. T. CROWDER, President. R. C. McGodgh, Secretary. Mr. Editor : Having a leisure moment 1 have concluded that 1 would write you a lew lines ou the subject ot Crops, Taxes, Grai ges, a Conven tion to aiur our Constitution, and will take them up in the order indicated: CROPS of com in our Immediate section is vtiy good whtre the lands were properly cultivated, and 1 thluk there will be less demand lor VVi-tcni coir, next year than tar a number ol years past. Our oat and rye crops were splendid ; unfortunately, we had but little sown. Our wheat crops was tolerably lair, however, scarcely au average crop either, iu quantity or quality. Colton has had several serious drawbacks. There was so much rain that but few planters cultivated their cottou Dell, which made it lute iu fruiting, then to “cap thi climax” ol disaster, the boll worm made its appearance, aud iry own opiniou is that cottcn will tall about one-third short of what it would hate made but for the disasters namid. Some of uiv neighbors entertain the opinion that we shall lall short one-half of our expectations. TAXES. By the by, what has become of tbe case carried to the Supreme Court from our County? Has the ease been decided ? If so, how ? I am anx ious to know what the Supreme Court decision is, and while I am also anxious tor our county to be ont of debt I am not willing to pay twice as much taxes lor IS7I, and 250 per cent lor IS7J - liO per cent more 'hsn Judge Hall decided could be collected from the reristlng Taxpayers for 1872—and then be taxed ’o help pay ‘be cost and expeuses incurred by tbe couuty in consequence of the resistance mr.de, amounting to not less, I suppose, thau twelve or fifteen hundred dollars, besides tbe loss by delay to the county in collect Ing ths taxes due. • RANGES. VV’hilst I am uow and have always hceu opposed to secret political societies ; so much o that ye.-r* ago ( publicly asserted that I should never be a member of one. J think I cau foresee, in the Pa trons of Husbandry, the Day Star ol Hope for tbe tanners, who compose the substratum from wbieh all our wealth is drawn. The farmers comprise, I p esgiue, forty-nine fiftieths of our population and yet it is a rare thing for one of them to get any office ol honor or profit • ol course, being an outsider, I know nothiug o t their secrets, but have been told that they ignore politics. But to my mind there is mere prospect of their doing good by uniting their forces ou prudent and iu tell igeDt tanners tar their law makers, and thus save thousands ot dollars annually drawn from their pockets by extravagant legislation. I am not opposed to auy man being a law QLikei, lgt bis protession be w hat it may, but my experience satisfies roe that tbe ipau who has made inis living at the plow bandies knows the value of money and is not likely to squander it loolisbiy. constitutional convention. I am decidedly in favor ot U, for more reasons than 1 can enumerate In this short communica tion Suffice it to say, that ia my opiuiou tbe present Constitution gives the Executive ol State too much power, though 1 am sure our present excellent Governor w ill uot abuse it. it gives too )ung lime to judicial officers, also to members of Legislature; it prohibits the collection of auy county taxes on more than ball of the t*x payers ol the State. The only valid objection f Have beard urged against the' Convention was that ol the expenses. A single dollar collected lor county purposes tor oue year, lrom each taxpayer, would pay ibe entire expense ot a Convention, to say nothing ol the vast benefits to be derived and re sult lrom a Convention to tie composed ol the good people of Georgia. at * „ T.

Undf.veicpep Vigor.—Tho leeLlo and de bilitated Uf nally fancy they aie in a more hopeless condition than shey r.aily are. The resources of nature are rot entity exhausted. Even when strength and appetite fail, when the eyes are heavy and Institle.-s, the complexion pallid, the n< iv.s tr. a ulons, the body attenuated, and tbe miid depress!d, there is generally a reserve ol ’aunt rower behind sneh palpable evidences of weakness. Various modes of treatment are re sorted to by physicians in tbe hope of developing and rtnderiog available this store of sk-epinc- vi tality, but tbe surest, and indeed the only thor oughly safe and reliable means of awakening the dormant energies of the system is a course ol Hosteller’s Stomach Bitters. Electricity shower baths, the flesh brush, seu bathing, etc., may be well enough iu their way as auxiliaries, but they do l.ot reach the source of the evil. All physical debility proceeds either from a derange meut of the tanctions of the assimilating, secre tive and vital organs, or from a sluggish consti tution. ln either case, aud also in eases where both causes exist, the Bitters will invariablv pro duce su immediate and salutary change in the <ondition of the patient, and eventuul'.y effect a complete cure. None o! the dangerous alkaloids, too often administered rs tonics, can be other wise than deleterious under such circumstances, and to give mercury is positively criminal. The direct effect of the gieal vegetable specific will be manifested in an improved appetite, a more cheer ful frame of mind, a gradual return of strength, an increase ol flesh, and a healthier complexion Meanwhile, however, the constitution, if iner* and f< tble, will bave been rouied aud renovated by the subtle elements of itivigoratiou contained iu the Bitters.
