New Dress.—The Macon Tele
graph and Messenger of the 31st,
comes out in au entirely new dress.
A beautiful new head and new minion
type, with the columns narrowed con
siderably from what they were and
columns now instead of eight as
formerly. This changes the appear
ance of the paper considerably, and
very favorably too, we think,
appears as well as any ,'uper in the
South. We hardly knew it, that old
familiar look, was gone, and the gen
cral appearance so changed. Success
May you livo to put on many
more new dresses, and coutinue to be

The Cuthbcrt Appeal, quotes the
first bale of cotton os selling at 20ets.,
aud says;
Which was fully five con is more
than could have been obtained at any
other point in Southwest Georgia.
Other places may talk about giving
the highest prices, but when the proofs
are sought after they are wanting.”
Yes, and if you brother Appeal bad
to prove that, that bale sold far twenty
cents, your proof would “be wanting”
too, for we happen to know that it
sold for, 1.7 3-4 cts. IMiicli is as low, or
a little less than most any other place
Southwest Georgia paid. We like to
sec a paper try to uphold the interest
of its constituency, hut do “tote fair”
Bro. S ., and don’t make such big
mistakes next time. The first bale on
ly brought 17 here, and we know this
is h better market than C'uthbert. It
however, was only “ordinary” cotton.
In the new game called ‘chivalric
which is supplanting ‘croquet,’ the par

rimony.’

(llincsville Gazette,) A Ukmarka

ty, there is a large lamilv by the uamc

three brothers, each of whom had a
family of twelve children, and iu each
lnraify there were six boys and six
girls. One of these brothers, who had
light hair and blue eyes, married n
lady who had dark hair and black
eyes; and of their twelve children,
three boys and three girls were light-
haired and blue-eyed, and the iest,
dark-haired and black-eyed.
Cottoo Statement
The cotton comparison for 1871—2
and 1872—3, up to August 30, shows
an iucrease iu receipt of upland cotton
at Savannah of 1G4,7*23. While at New
Orleans, there is a larger per cent off.
Wo don't know enough about cotton
to give much idea of it ourself. Simp
ly give the Statement and let the peo
pic judge for themselves. We rather
think though, from what we car. gather
that as indicated by the above state
ments. the Southern crop is much bet
ter than the Western.
A Constitutional Convention.
Theic is some talk of a Constitutional
Convention, being called, and we
agree with the views of the Sivannah
News. It says: There seems to be a
prevailing sentiment among the peo
ple of this .State in favor of a Consti
tutional Convention. Several speak
ers at the recent Agricultural Con-
entiou at Athens advocated it,
and the manner in which their
remarks were received showed un
mistakably that the assemblage
was of the same opinion. Among
these speakers was Gov. Smith.
Such a convention has been an ab
solute necessity since the administra
tion of our State government has been
in the hands of our own people, and
the demand grows more imperative
every day.
The corstilution of 1808 was framed
by aliens anil ignoramuses, and it is
not only desirable, but ucccssary that
it should bo subjected to revision.
Tho constitution needs to be revised
and amended, and tho character of
this revision is sufficiently indicated iu
the recent speech of Governor Smith
at Athens, and in the address of lion.
B. II. Ilill. We trust to see the movc-
meut take definite shape.

GEORGIA 8TATE GRANGE,
COLAPABCHEE, GA.
To Merchants, Manufacturers, and to
Whomsoever it may Concern :
By authority of the Stats Grange
of Georgia, the following Circular is
issued, and to it your special at
tention is respectfully invited ;
There is, in the State of Georgia, an
association of Planters, styled “Pat
rons of Husbandry.” By cooperative
associations they seek, through any
and all legitimate and honorable agen
cies, mutual protection aud mutual
benefit They aim not to antagonize
'its of any class of our tellow-
; nor will they permit them
selves to wage exacting and tyrannic
crusade in their own interests. Hith
erto, however, we have committed tho
management of much of our business
interests to certan classes of our fellow
men. For this, we deem the commis
sion received disproportionate to the
service rendered. The necessities of
the times demand rigid reform alike
in the varied detail of farm life at home
and Abroad. Otherwise the
form of bankruptcy and dis
will stalk in every rural pathway,
daugerreotyping woe upon every fire
side and Icbabod be written upon the
wallsof our once peaceful and prosper
ous homes.
You concede to agriculture the po<
sition of pre-eminence, the substructure
underlying every material interest.
You will tell us you seek andr .
her prosperity. We are before you to
day to most respectfully ask of you to
vertily your assertion, and share with
us your commissions, thus making the
benefits resulting from the products of
our daily toil and care, in summer sun
shine aud winter snow, mutual.
For this, we think you have 44 quid
p.ro quo” in the influence of cash pat-
tage of associated numbers. Be as-
rod we are no mendicants at your
doors,pleading gratuitous charities; for
were it the will of our Divine Master
that we even die of poverty, we would
still accept “die game!” Wc ask your
mutual aid iu rendering prosperous
that interest upon which you say the
prosperity of yours depends.
Should you deem it advisable thus
to deal with us, address (granting us
the right to reject any oiler) giving
terras to cither— •
