We don’t know when we l ave had the .pleasure of meeting so many friends from fhe country on our streets as on last Tues day. Some were in attendance upon the meeting of the County Board of Education, and many came in obedience to the de .mands of habit whieh brings quite a num ber to the Couty site on public sale day. We conversed freely with many farmers .and were pleased to hear such encouraging reports of the growing crops. The day—Sheriff’s sale day—passed without anything being sold at pubdc out cry. Elaine. The manufacturers of this wonderful oil ( claim that it is entirely free from those gases which render kerosene so dangerous. -Prom experiments made in our presence by Mr. McDonald, agent for Duck A Cos., of Atlanta, with this oil, we are satisfied that it is non-explosive and perfectly safe. Mr. McDonald lit a lamp filled with the oil and .turning it allowed the oil to run out on the flame which was instantaneously extin guished. Ho also lit the wick below the burner and stuffed it tightly into the lamp filled with the oil, the blaze was extin guished as if it had been immersed in .water. This oil is for sale in our city by McCall, Copelan & Cos., Barnhart k Kim -srough and Storey & Bro. liljured. We regret to learn that Mr. James McCoeamons, living near Bairdstown, was seriously injured by a vicious hog, a few days ago. —— -mm ♦ mm Tlie Adjourned Term Of Greene Superior Court will be betd, commencing on Monday the 19th inst. Jurors and witnesses will act wisely in making a note of the date and being prompt in attendance, as otherwise his Honor may make a draft on their pockets. — DEATH, The insatiate Archer never wearies—his shafts are ever flying. It becomes our painful duty to record the death of Mrs. Lundy, wife of our highly respected fellow citizen, Lewis Lundv, Esq., which occurred on last Monday. Mrs. Lundy was a most estimable Christian woman, and her death creates a vacuum in the family circle and the community. Personal. The numerous friends of our former fel low citizen, Col. Mark Johnston, will fee pleased to learn thatheis in the city. Col. Johnston is Principal of West End Acade my near Atlanta, and one of the most ac complished scholars and successful teach ers in the land. The Colonel will leave this morning for Athens, whither he goes as a member of the Examining Board of the State University. A Good Move. The Teachers of the County have inau gurated measures looking to the permanent organization of a “Teachers’ Association.” We learn the first meeting for the purpose of organizing, will be held on the first Sat urday in August next. We feel assured that a free interchaago of views and a una nimity of sentiment on the part of this hon orable profession, will result in advancing the educational interests of tlie county. Teachers’ Heeling. In response to an invitation of the County Board of Education, quite a num ber of gentlemen engaged in the arduous profession of teaching, met the Board at the Court House on last Tuesday for the purpose of taking into consideration the propriety of adopting a uniform series of text hooks in tlie public schools of the County, and other matters of interest in connection witli the free school system of the County. The meeting was very har monious. The following books were re commended by the teachers to the Board of education : Webster’s Elementary Spelling Book. Hart’s Grammar. Series of Readers. Sanford’s Series of Arithmetics. Stephens’ History of the United States. Cornell’s First Steps and Primary Geo graphy. Maury’s ‘ World we Live In.’’ We heartily concur with tlie educators of our County in their selection and recom mendation of text books, and hope our Board of Education will without hesitation adopt them. STATE ITEMS. The Chancellorship of the Univers ity of Georgia wiil be tendered ex- President Davis. Tl.irty-two carloads of watermelons passed through Atlanta on the Ist inst. en route from Florida to Chicago. Col. R. A. Alston, of the Atlanta Herald, and E. Y. Clarke, of the Con stitution, went to West Point last Thursday to fight a duel. They were frustrated by officers of the law. “ Unanimous ” Bard refused to turn over the Atlanta Post-Office to his suc cessor, Gov. Conley, on the ground that he had never resigned, Bard’s bonds men flanked him in the Money Order Office and he flunked. GLEANINGS. Daniel Webster's private library was recently sold at Boston. The Republicans of Ohio are strain ing every nerve to get up a Know- Nothing excitement. The Patrons of Husbandry number 23,500 Granges, with a membership of 1,500,000. It is said that ex-President Davis will accept the Presidency of the Texas Mechanical and Agricultural College at Bryan. It seems very probable, as it would certaiuly be proper, that lion. John Lee Carroll, grandson of Charles Car roll, of Carrollton, will be the Governor .of Maryland in ’76. Mr. S. Roycc stated recently before the New York Liberal Club that the annual death-rate among the laboring classes is 55 to every 1,000 while among the wealthy and well-to-do it is only Hi to 1,000. This was how Jefferson settled the third term question whan he was Presi dent : “ I should unwillingly be the person who, disregarding the sound precedent set by an illustrious predeces sor, should furnish the first example of prolongation beyond the second term of offico.” UNION POINT DEPARTMENT^ o. a.

We failed to notice last week the mar riage of Mr. Webster Thnxton to Miss Mary English, daughter of Mrs. Ann English. We tender the young couple our best wishes for abundant prosperity and happi ness. Personal. Our young friend J. F. Hart, of the firm of J. F. Hart & Cos., left Tuesday morning of this week for an extended trip in the West. He will probably take in tlie moun tains and valleys of Virginia. He wants it distinctly understood that be is not travel ing in the interest of Grant or the third term. Query.—Hasn’t he gone in the interest of Cupid and a first Term?—[Ed. Her. niiiisfcr’s and Deacon's Meet lug. This body will convene i:i the Baptist Church at UTnion Point-, Tuesday the 13tb day of July, and continue three (lays. It has been brought forward one week earlier than the regular lime, in consequence of the adjourned Term of Greene Superior Court—so says the Rev. J. A. Carter, the Moderator, in the Christian Index of last week. We hope to see a full attendance of the delegates and their friends. Pa rni*e nlcs is Alidoni inis. Dr. Randle, with the assistance of other physicians, tapped a case of Abdominal Dropsy a few days since, in onr vicinity, for the tenth time since October, 1873. The average amount of water taken has been about forty pounds—the maxi mum amount being fifty-six pounds. The patient is a young lady, perhaps twen ty-two or three yeavsof age, and Dr. R. has strong hopes of an ultimate recovery. We think he ought to report it for the journals, it would no doubt be of interest to the pro fession. The History of Cotton. In a lengthy articlo on cotton cul ture the New York South favors us with the following interesting scraps of history : The precise date of the introduction of cotton into the American colonies is involved in uncertainty. In a pam phlet printed in London, 1603, it is asserted that cotton grew in the province of Virginia as readily as it did in Italy. Beverly, in his “ History of Virginia,” states that Sir Edmund Andros, when Governor of that colony in 1602, “gave particular marks of his favor towards the propagating of cotton.” It was long cultivated in Maryland, Virginia, the Carolinas, and in Georgia, in small patches for domestic use. In a pam phlet entitled “ A State of the Province of Georgia, attested upon oath in the Court of Savannah j” bearing date of 1749, it was averred “ that large quan tities of cotton had been raised here, but the plant dies in winter.” The Sea Island seed was introduced upon the coast of Georgia in 1785, having been brought thither from Bahamas, where it was known as the seed of the Acquilla Cotton. Previous to 1694 the production of cotton in the United States was inconsiderable. The earli est recorded shipment of the staple from this country that we have met with is from the port of Charleston, 1747-48, when seven bags were exported. In 1770, 2,000 pounds were sent out from the same city ; and a third shipment of 71 bags, 1771, was seized in Liverpool by the British authorities on the ground that America could not produce a quantity so great. In 1791 the to tal export from this country was 189,- 216 pounds, or about 475 bags of aver age weight of 400 pounds. From that date, however, began the marvelous development of the cotton growth, which at each decennial leaped forward with gigantic strides. Nothing more strikingly illustrates the eager and per nicious concentration of the Southern mind upon tho one great staple of our soil, than tho exports of cotton from the United States at the end of each of the successive decades from 1810 to 18G0. Wc herewith present the figures from the most reliable sources withiu reach : Years. Bales of 400 lbs. Dec.lu.pr.cl 1810... 283,158 424 1820. 312,234 33 1830 692,450 121 1840 1850 2,318,002 75 1860 [estimated],. .4,030,184 100 Average Decennial Increase per ct. ..141 . Tlie Presidential Stock. Tho Now York Day-Book says: The political capital for the great Presidential operations of 1876, is thus quoted. VVe append the ■names in the order of strength each candi date is supposed to possess. The percentage of chance, according to the opinions of the wise ones of each party theso gentlemen individ ually control, may be estimated thusly : Republicans present the following. The possibilities of nom ination are in the order here pre sented :—J. G. Blaine, 11. Wilson, E B. Washburne, B. 11. Bristow, E. D. Morgan, O. P. Morton.— Democrats present the following : _W. Allen, y. F. Bayard, T. A. Hendricks, A. G. Thurnaan, S. J. Tilden, J. S. Black. Six on each side, and the best men in each par ty undoubtedly, while a compari son, in point of statesmanship, moral status and earnest patriot ism, leaves the Republican batch of “availables” so far below the Democratic six that they are out of sight. It will not be denied that the reputation of the six Dem ocrats is irreproachable, while on the other side, the only two names that can be called decently clean, are Blaine and Wilson, the other four being badly smirched; but, as we have said, even at that they are the best of their party, with the ex ception of Blaine and Wilson.
