She ifictiild THURSDAY MORNING,.SEP Tlie W*& Is pi'crf And the prisoners lWjj atl- been^dikcli: ed. A number o'fc 'true biHs 'wer? found fit Wriglitsville Court, Johnson county, lust week, and one ol the prisoners put upon trial as a test case. The testimony was in sufficient., under the law, to warrant a ver dict of guilty, and he was acquitted. The prisoner^ were then discharged. Those held in Jail here have also been discharged, by by order of Court. The facts as devel oped upon these trials—Harris in this anil Hicks in Johnson—go to-prove that we were correct in the opinion expressed several weeks ago, that only the loaders of the insurrec tionary movement were into the secret The mass of the colored population know little or nothing of the ultimate design, and per haps heard first of the contemplated upris ing after arrests Lad been made. They had attended meetings, joined companies, man)’ of them, and were doing as they were told, never dreaming that they were joining a clan whose object was blood or booty. The try ing ordeal through which they have passed will, doubtless, make them shy of secret so cieties, drills, uniforms, etc., in the future. If it will only keep them trom having any thing to do with, or in any way countenan cing vagabond negro politicians in the fu ture, much good will have been accomplish ed. They have seen that the white people hive the power over them, and that in a mat ter of resort to arms they would be as chaft before the wind. They have seen, also, that the laws of the State protect them as well as the whites, and that justice will be meted out to them by those in authority, and that they have nothing to fear so long as they obey the law; but that whenever they attempt by force to make a law unto themselves, speedy vengeance will surely overtake them. The storm has now all blown over, and peace and quiet reigns supreme. Not a drop of blood has been shed- Heaven be praised that it is so. We now urge all, white and colored, to profit by the lesson learned, and strive, each and all, to promote peace, har mony and good will throughout the whole country. To the colored people we say, especially, beware of any man, white or colored, who attempts to engender bad feeling in your hearts toward your white neighbor. Such a man is an enemy to you and to the peace o the country, no matter whether he come dressed in the garb of a Saint or a Devil. If yon fellow him, trouble is sure to come. As Gov. Johnson told you the other day, the white people of the South have none but kindly feeling toward the colored race. We have been brought up together, nurtured to gether, and it is but natural that there should be a kindly feeling in the heart of the white man toward his boyhood companion. And the man who tries to persuade the colored ( people that such is not the ease is a villain ous scoundrel, with nothing good about him Shun them, shun them, as you value all that is near ard dear to you. A meeting has been called, by some of your race, to be held in this city on Saturday next to appoint men to go and search out a new home for you. ' lflerct*r University.

Well done boys; but you have a long and arduous road to travel yet. Do not let these honors de part from you, but rather make them bright er as you near the goal. No institution of learning in the land is doing more, unassisted by State aid, for the education of young men. By means of the Mess Hall system good board can be had at S1’2 per month. For the benefit of young men of limited means, sons of Ministers, etc., we clip the following from the Catalogue: Free Tuition and Aid to Certain Classes. —By resolution of the Board of Trustees, the sons of ministers of all denominations, resi dents of Georgia, and the sons of all Baptist ministers who have died in the service of the churches within the State, are entitled to the privileges of the University, free of tuition. Young men studying for the ministry, who come properly endorsed, are likewise edu cated gratuitously. The Baptist Convention of the State of Georgia holds a fund for education, distinct from the Endowment Fund. By this fund he expenses of young men of limited means, who have been licensed for the Gospel Min istry, may be defrayed, except what may be necessary for clothing.

In regard to the crops in this county, I must say that although they have suffered . severely from drought and hot winds (during July and part of August)there,will be plenty of corn made to supply the farmers of the county, and in some places some to spare.— Our oat crop was never better than this year. Farmers are now making preparation for a big one another year. Will commence sowing in some places the last of this month. The sowing season here is from the middleof this month to the middle of November. They sow only the rust proof, oat, known here as the Mexican oat, which has never been known to be materially affected by rusk Our oat crop is considered here of great importance. The cotton crop here is almost a failure.— There .cann it be much more than half a crop made. It Li/. f.Jr in early summer to be an excellent crop; grew off and took on squares equal to any previous year, but the dry weather and hot winds the latter part of July and first part of August completely ‘diditnp brown.’ It took the rust and the* result is, there is no cotton upon it, except a little bot tom crop. Potatoes look well, since the rains set in, and bid fair now for a good yield. Sugar cane got so badly hurt by the dr)’ hot weath er that we will make but little more than half a crop. The pea crop, where there was rain enough to bring them up, is fine. To sum the whole thing up, the provision crop -will be ample to supply the wants of the people; but the cotton crop will be short and consequence money will be scarce.— New Advertisemets.

Johnson, we deep sense of gratitude influence he has ever exerted on onr citizens, and to his teachings and ex ample we attribute in great part the law-abi ding course our citizens have recently pur sued. We feel that it is fortunate that the trials which we are about to enter upon will be conducted before one whose nt tional rep utation will assure every one that justice has beiu done. To Solicitor General, John W. Robison, we return our thanks for his courtesy and valua ble assistance rendered to our body. JACOB A. BLOUNT, Foremen, George W W C Snell, Jesse McAfee, us on peaceable terms, striving with us for a common good, we are willing for you to do so. We need your labor, and you need onr money. You need our assistance more than we need your labor. If you go, other labor will come here and take your places in till ing the soil. These fair fields are too invit ing to lay waste; some one will cultivate them if you do not. We K now that you will be the losers by going to a strange country, but choose for yourselves, weighing the mat ter well before you act. There are many, white and colored, who libe to travel on the Railroads, Steamboats, etc., at other people’s expense. How much profit have you ever received from the services of those you have sent off on various missions? Has it put one dollar—one dime —in your pocket ? Be care ful before yon take up your hard earnings again to send men off to look for they know not what. In conclusion we say to you, this—the South—is the best home the sons of Africa ever had. If you want to know the truth of this assertion ask of those who have traveled most, who have visited the wilds of Africa and seen how the people live from whom you sprang. All you have to do to be happy in this country is to be content in the sphere Providence intended you to occupy, leavin wiser heads to direct the affairs of State. Be honest, be industrious, and strive for im provement, morally and intellectually. Hap piness consists not in great possessions, but in being content with what we have. Mr. Blanton Duncan gives, in the Louis- nille Commercial, an interesting account of the Confederate currency. He s.’.ys the to tal issue never reached S350,00C,009, and its depreciation was less than is popularly be lieved. He says the paper dollar was worth 85 cents in gold in November, 1861; 60 cents in May, 1862; 45 or 50Jcents in November, 1862^ 16 cents in July, 1863; 8 cents in No vember, J1863 ; 5 cents in May, 1864, from which period to the termination of the war it fluctuated, going up once to G cents, and only falling entirely as a medium in the last two months prior to the capitulation, when every one saw that defeat was inevitable. The Atlanta Herald says: We understand from what we regard as reliable authority, that Gen. Jos. E. Johnston has been appoint ed, and has accepted the position of Com- mander-in-Chief of the army of Egypt. Only a short time since, and for the third time, was he tendered the position. This time it was urged upon him so strenuously that he at length consented, and is making his prep aration to go over and assume his position immediately. He is to get $100,000 to pre pare himself an outfit, and is to receive the sum of $25,000 annually for having supreme control of the army of the Khedive of Egypt. this department suspending the collection of said tax until the next meeting of the Gen eral Assembly; and wheas, in the opinion of many persons itwasnot the intention oftheLeg islature in enacting the act of 1875. to im pose tax upon products in the hands of the producers thereof; and it being a matter of the first importance to producers that the in tention of the Legislature in this regard should be clear-ly understood, and that they should not be unreasonably limited as to the time within which they may dispose of their products, and thus be placed to that extent within the power of the speculators; and Whereas, The public interest can suffer no in jury by granting the prayer t ot' the said peti tioners; it is therefore ordered, that the Comp troller instruct the several tax collectors of this State to suspend the collection of the tax upon cotton and other products in the hands of farmers and producers on the first day of April last, until the next meeting of the General Assembly of this State. Col. Goldsmith has therefore issued the following notice to tax collectors: Atlanta, Ga., September 7, 1875. His excellency the Governor, having sus pended the collection of thetaxon cotton and other tarm produce, in the hands of the pro ducer for sale on the 1st day of April last, until the meeting of the legislature, it is, thereiore ordered that .you desist from the collection of said tax. As the digests do not show whetherornot such returns were made, you are directed to ascertain from each tax payer, when he pre sents himself tor the payment of his taxes, if he returned any cotton or other farm pro duce. If so, you will deduct the amount from his taxes, and enter the amount deducted in a blank column opposite his name, so that you may know who to call on for what amount, in case the legislature determines that said tax should be collected. In making your settlement with this office you will enter the amount of tax so relieved on your insolvent list in order that yon may get credit for it on your account here. Persons claiming to have included in their return, cotton and other farm products must be sworn as to the amount. Very respectfully, W. L. Goldsmith, Comptorller-General.
