FOR GOVERNOR OF GEORGIA : The Nominee of the Democratic State Conven tion, which meets in Atlanta on the 24th. P. T. Barnum bets $5,000 that Greeley will be elected. General Hancock supports the Baltimore nominations. Senator Ohio, was born! in Edenl ton, North Carolina. Gen. W. K. Easley, of Greenville, S. C., died suddenly in Atlanta on Thursday. ► Hon. A. R. Lnmar has been announced for Congressman at large. ♦ ♦ Nine stores were burned a few days since in the new town of Birmingham, Ala. Thirty thousand people sailed from Liverpool to the United States, in May. The Tribune heads its account of the proceed ings at Baltimore with two hands grasped. - The Milledgeville Federal Union announces the name of General A. H. Colquitt for Govern or. Tho Philadelphia Age, hitherto anti-Greeley, hoists the names of Greeley and Brown to it masthead. - ■ - The Confederate archives have been sold by one John T. Pickett, for $75,000. This closes up the last of the Confederate spoils. It is stated by a Washington letter-writer that eight million dollars will be raised and expend ed for Radical electioneering purposes,the pres ent campaign. On the night of the 18th inst. an attempt was made to assassinate the King and Queen of Spain. Amadeus had better be careful how he rides about the streets of Madrid at midnight. He is in Spain and not Italy. The Legislature.— I This body has not yet done much, the time being chiefly occupied with, bills of minor importance. The bill to change the time for State elections meets with general favor. During a recent Democratic caucus, it was resolved to re-district the State into nine Congressional Districls. Doubtless the session will be a short one as there is not a great pres sing of business before the Legislature. A Sunset in Talbotton. Wo have read many descriptions of the sun sets of lial}’, and mused until like Prentice, we imagined ourself a part of their mysterious depths; but mind has never pictured nor pen cil ever traced a scene at all comparable to the sunset of last Sabbath evening,as witnessed from the heights of Talbotton. The most gorgeous cloud tolds were piled in broken gold riffs along a sea of amber and amethyst; while a few bold headlands, surcharged with constantly evolving radiance, caused the scene to sliitt every mo ment, creating fairy castles with glittering spires, and living landscapes from which arose rugged mountain crags with towers bathed iu the rain of a golden storm. Islands of coral vegetating sun beams floating out on a sea of crystal light, would pass along the horizon to die into nothingness and iris shrouded gloom. The background of the scene was a constant ly changing sea of amethystine ether, with depths so clear and grooping cloudlands so distinct, the mind was intensified and overpowered at the im macculate picture. Now see, far to the right in the purest of ether, are floating plantom ships with sails impelled by the softest of airs, born just beyond at the golden gates. Dark browed and luminous on their western verge, a compa ny of headlands move lazily until lauuched into golden meadow clouds. Above, high toward the zenith, huge pyramids grow out of feathery spray and become intensified with a golden life. Slowly as the evening sinks, dies the mag ic lithographing of the sun. Mr. Barker’s Sciiool at Kedboue. Mr. Editor: The undersigned attended the school ot Mr. Barker at Collins worth, on Friday, 21st ult. W e hardly know which to admire the most, the hospitality and kindness of the patrons in their ample and rich provisions for a large crowd of spectators, the splendid performance of the Band liom Talbotton, in discoursing sweet music, the thoroughness of the examination by the teacher or the promptitude and readiness ot the pupils in their exercises, especially as the most of them were boys and girls not yet in their “teens.” r l heir studies were mostly arithmetic, geography, enghsk grammar, exercises in com p ration and algebra. Many of the exercises were on the black-board, and we can truly say that we have never seen students—considering their ages and a Ivantages—perform their parts better. Mr. Barker, to prevent any suspicion of a collusion between master and scholar, re quested the undersigned, together with any oth ers. to select any portion of their studies aud to assist him iu bringing them before the pupils and we extended the exercises to a considerable length and iu few or no instances did we fail to redeye tub answers to our questions or a prompt solution of our problems. We think Mr. Bark er has a rare gift ot presenting aud explaining the subject he introduces to the comprehension of tue juvenile mind as well as to engage the at tention and excite the energies of the young.

A RAILROAD TO TALBOTTON. On the 22nd inst.. Col. Virgil Powers and son arrived in oar town to inspect the proposed route, for a branch road from this place to num - ber 6on the Southwestern Railroad. In com pany with several of our business men and leading citizens, the party started out to examine the to pography of the country, and ascertain the amount of grading necessary for the road. The surveying party will arrive in a few days, when a thorough map of the route will be taken, and estimates of the cost of construction made. The party will also survey the Geneva route and by comparative estimates arrive at some definite idea of construction on each route. We recog nize in this inception of a most needed work, a brighter prospect for Talbotton, and we trust the people of the county will awaken to their in terest and come forward with will and means to start the good work. It is needless to refer to the advantages that will accrue to the country in the facilities offered to every branch of trade and interest in the development of our resources, in awakening our people to greater exertions, and in the enhancement of our real estate. The people of Talbotton are willing to assist to the extent of their ability in the construction of the road. It is a public necessity. Let us now, as we have ample guarantees of assistance from President Wadley of the Central Railroad, put fortli every elTOrt for the accomplishment of this enterprise. Let the people of the county move in the matter promptly, and but a short time will elapse before tne road will be under contract find speedily finished. The citizens and busiucss men of Macon are also looking to their interest in the matter. The entire cotton crop of this and portions of adjoining counties will necessarily pass over this road to find a market. A large trade can also bo developed in this county for Macon, if she will put forth the efforts to secure it. Then we commend the enterprise to the business men of Macon and ask them to assist us in the construc tion of the road. The Southwestern proposes to furnish the iron and rolling stock if we will grade the road. This is a liberal offer. There can be no doubt iu reference to the judiciousness of the investment. Talbot being one of the average rich counties in the State, will furnish ample freightage in her cotton, and the bacon, grain, produce and mer chandise consumed in her borders annually. Besides we are now paying an annual freight bill that will grade and thoroughly equip the road. To say nothing of the wonderful impetus that will be given to trade, the population of our town will increase one hundred per cent, in two years from its completion. Then let us awake to the importance of an en terprise offering to the county at large and to Talbotton in particular,facilities and advantages which will make us prosperous and develop to their fullest extent our resources. Hats, Caps, Fur and Straw Goods. CLARK BROTHERS AND CO., 32G, 328, AND 330 BROAD WAY, new York. Permanence can hardly be called a general characteristic of bus: ness enterprises in New York. Out of the thousands who yearly embark upon the troubled waters of trafic, the vast ma jority are engulfed in the maelstrom of financial disaster and disappear forever. . Now and then a house is found whose record of unvarying prosperity dates back half a century, and ’ the names of such are very familliar iu commercial circles. Among these long established concerns, the firm of Clark Brothers A Cos,, maintains an enviable reputation for those solid qualifications upon which alone a successful business career can be based. The house commenced bnsineess in the year IB3U, at No. 114 Pearl St., under the firm name of Draper & Clark, removing subsequently to 85 Pearl St. In 1845 the stylo of tho firm became Draper, Clark A Cos., and their location was 31 Nassau St., in the vicinity ot the old Post Office. Still later, removals were made to 45 Broadway, and 22 Park Place (the warehouse extending through to 17 Barclay St.). About 7 years ago, impelled by the general-up-town movement of the wholesale trade, and the imperative need of more extended accommodations, the business was transferred to the spacious quarters now occupied at 326, 328, A 330 Broadway. Four years since the firm style became Clark Brothers & Cos. During all these changes of location and part nership, the business operations of the house have steadily increased and its high reputation has been maintained unblemished through all the mutilations of more than thirty years. From a modest inception the transactions of the firm have gradually enlarged, until now Messrs. Clark Brothers & Cos., do by far the largest bus iness of any house in the city of New York. Union, and considerable shipments of certain styles of goods are made to Canada, Mexico, the West Indies, Ac. The warerooms comprise fTvo floors, with a frontage of 75 feet on Broadway (the entrance being at No. 330), and extending to the rear 175 feet. An L 25 feet wile opens on Pearl Si. and another of 35 feel width on Worth St., the dis tance from street to street being 190 feet. The offices are upon the second floor, which is the principal salesroom ; its broad expanse afl'ord ing space for the display of an immense stock of merchandise. The upper floor is used lor the storage of entire cases, aud the examina tion, packing and shipment of goods. All goods are received and delivered at No. 98 Worth St., where a steam elevator facilitates the the labor of handling the freight which is con stantly arriving and departing. Nearly fifty persons, including salesmen, accountants, por ters, etc., are employed in the establishment. The stock of silk, fur, wool and palm leaf hats comprises every style and quality demanded by the trade. These axe chiefly of Amerieau man ufacture, but in straw goods, large foreign im portations are made of articles adapted to ladies’ and childrens wear. Scotch caps are also an item of foreign manufacture in which the firm deal extensively. The manufacture of Palm Leaf Hats is a prominent feature in the gener al business of the house. The material is im ported from the West Indies and sent to Massa chusetts and elsewhere iu New’ England, to be made into the countless shapes of head-gear lor summer wear. This department ol the business has received special attention lor thirty years and has attained enormous proportions. In what might be classed as millinery goods will be found a full assortment of ladies’ and children’s trimmed hats, ruches, flowers, shak er hoods, etc. All ol the above made goods are from the best manufactories at home and abroad, purchased for cash, and consequently offered to the trade upon unusually favorable terms. With the mercury among the nineties, it may be considered as rather unreasonable to say much about furs, but long before the summer is over, dealers iu such goods must replenish their stocks iu anticipation of winter, and the large assortment offered by Messrs. Clark Broth ers & Cos., affords ample opportunity for satis factory selection. The stock comprises every description of muffs, capes, collars, boas, gloves, gauntlets, etc., from the ordinary grades to the richest and most elegant lurs'in the market, made up in the latest and most prevalent styles; also fancy furs--combinations of various col- etc.—expressly for children’s wear. The transactions of the firm are very large with country dealers, and in the busy season the splendid warerooms, filled with customers from all parts of the country, present a scene of animation, plainly indicative of the magnitude °f ; the sales which are effected. &ketcll K ives but an inadequate idea ot the full scope and importance of a business so extensive as that of Messrs. Clark Brothers & Cos., but it affords us pleasure to offer this re cognition—not only of their leading position in the business world—but their possession ol thoe stilling qualifications which have justly won for them an eminent rank among our most succesful and honored merchants. I The Courier-Journal thinks that if the weather j does not grow cooler very soon, Mr. Fahrenheit, j in justice to his patrons, should at once add a j second story with a Mansard roof to his ther mo m el er. Mr. Editor : The undersigned, a Committee appointed to attend the exercises of the annual examination of Collins - ., orth Institute, respect fully request the publication of the following communication: The examination commenced on Tuesday, the 16th instant, and ended on Wednesday afternoon. Several classes were examined in reading, spell ing, geography, and English grammar. In these essentials of an education the pupils showed that they had been carefully taught, and that their instructors had endeavored to lay a good foundation in order to insure the security and solidity of the superstructure. The dictation exercises were quite creditable, and evinced the fact that the scholars knew not merely how to spell from the bock, but were also prepared to write correctly any ordinary' sentence. In the department of mathematics classes were presented for examination in arithmetic, algebra, geometry, and trigonometry. It was evident from the promptness with which exam ples under various rules were worked, from the facility with which problems were solved, and and from the ease with which the pupils gave the correct answers to practical questions not contained in the text-book, that they had been well taught, and had also profited by the instruction. In the classics the examination in Latin was in grammnt, Caesar. auO Ilor&oe. In Greek there were exercises in the reader and Homer. Here the same kind of training was exhibited as that which had been manifested in the departments already noticed. Attention was paid not merely to translation, but also to parsing, and to that thorough knowledge of the grammar absolutely' necessary to those who aspire to a knowledge of the languages of Cicero and Demosthenes. The class in rhetoric promises well, and we commend to its members a patient continuance in the way in which they have commenced. Throughout the examination was creditable to teachers and pupils, and we feel that those parents who may entrust their children to the care of the faculty of Collinsworth will not regret it. ' As to tho exhibition of tho proficiency of the students in declamation, it will only be necessary to say that it was fully on a par with that of which they had given proof in their other studies. Quite a number of the boys and young men did very well, and we hope to hear good accounts of them in the future. V r e will not close without asking for this institution a more liberal support for the coming term than that which it has received during the past year. With the faithful and competent instructors which it now has, together with the local advantages which it enjoys, Collinsworth should be more widely known and more gener ally patronized. Let all of the community in whose midst she is placed rally to her support, and let friends from abroad give her the liberal patronage she deserves, that she may continue to accomplish the great objects of her founders.

' . H. FINDLAY'S SONS, Sole Manufacturers, Findlay Iron Works, Macon, Ga. o • We offers few Certificates only:— Edgefield, S. C., January 20, 1872. Messrs. R. FINDLAY’S SONS, Macon, Ga. Gentlemen:— l am glad to say that I am very much pleased with the “Eclipse” Cotton Screw bought from you. I have packed all mv own crop and the crops of some of my neighbors, and can safely sav it packs faster than any Screw or Press I have ever seen. It is very simple, strong, and not liable to get out of order. Yours truly, N. B. STROTHER. We, the undersigned, having witnessed the Findlay A Craig Eclipse Screw Cotton Press, (man ufactured by It. Findlay’s Sons, Macon,) in actual operation, do not hesitate to heartily recom mend it to our planting friends and customers as a Cotton Press possessing several new and com mendable features; prominent among which are rapidity, light draught, strength, simplicity, durability, standing room at the top of the box, and general conveniences. The Screw Pin has a pitch, or fall of 6i inches, rendering it uncommonly quick in action; and the anti-lriction device is such as to require much less power to operate it, than the ordinary Screw Press, having a pitch or fall of one or two inches. Twelve revolutions of levers run the follow Blocks down, and two or dinary hands, in our opinion, can with comparative case pack a 500 pound bale of cotton. Iu short,* it is the fastest, easiest worked, and most convenient press we have ever seen operated. It can be worked either by hand or horse power, at the option of the owner. The proprietors inform us that they guarantee their Press in every particular. f ,TAS. M. SIMMONS, Representing Adaniß, Bazemore A Ware. Cotton Factors, |B. L.

Gents: —Having purchased of you last fall a “Findlay and Craig Eclipse Screw" Cotton Press, it affords me great pleasure to send you my certificate of more than satisfaction. From reports made by parties using the press, I must confess that I expected to find it superior to all others— whether of Iron or th° Old Wood Screw -but did not anticipate such grand results ! Gentlemen, in introducing the Eclipse Press you have gained a sweeping victor)' over all competition. None that I ever saw or heard of, can even approach it in excellence. It possesses great speed, (faster lt>n Old XV-*~ l having pitoh or fall of fli inches. The light draught — the result of your anti-friction device—is wonderful, great box room, standing room at top, and numerous conveniences, still further commend the Eclipse to any planter wanting a Cotton Press. My ware house receipts show that my bales packed on the Eclipse, by one light mule, range from Seven to eight hundred pounds each, and I candidly believe that a 500 pound bale can be packed in my press by one man at the Lever. I cannot say too much in "favor of your Eclipse, in fact, not enough. For quick ond heavy work, and light draught, you “eclipse’ all others, leaving compe tition far behind. In regard to durability,l consider it as durable as any press over manufactured, and, in my opinion, will last generations, Don’t be afraid to guarantee them thoroughly. You will have as many orders as you can fill. I believe and hope. Your advertisement truthfully av erts that the “Eclipse” is the host press in the world. STERLING NEIL.
