BATUKPAY JAN’. 10, ISO 9 [The foil .wing A<ldre»s !><■ n: of importance to most of our patrons *vc yield our editorial •pace this week to make r■ .tti for it. ] (From the Journal an ! -T< -ooger.) Address of the Stale Axtictiltiiriil Society to tlie People of Georgia. The Conventions of Planters and Farmers assembled in Mann, on the ltuh and 11th ult., finally united under the existing or ganization of the State Agneitltural Society, formed in 1840, and liberally chartered in 18.13; and when so united, took a wide and comprehensive view of nil the qoe-t:ons tin rt vital to the agricultural inter' 1 -t. lam direc ted by the resolution of the meeting to call your attention to one or two important fea tures in its action. Without preliminaries, then. I ask you to look at the proceedings of tills meeting, and ■answer, under a solemn sense of your duty to yourselves and your country, if the questions raised and the objects contemplated by this meeting are not of sufficient moment to enlist the effort and sympathy of every man and wo man in Georgia. No one can answer, no.— Admitting, then, ns you must, the importance off the movement, canyon stand idle? Cun yon in derogation of all your past history stand confessed delinquents? livery consid eration forbids. What then shall you do? The mooting at Mae u points the way. ft is to organize. Let the people of every county hold public meetings at once, and organize Planters’ Clubs or Agricultural Societies. Let those immediately identified with agriculture —lot tin tillers of tlm soil begin the work, and ull trades and occupations dependent up on tho prosperity of the agriculturist will unite with you in netivo aid and support. At the same mooting which organizes your Planters’ Clubs, appoint full delegations of your intel ligent, practical, successful farmers to attend tho meeting of thu State Agricultural Society, which ie to meet in Atlanta on the first Tues day in February next. |See Appendix.] At this mooting, questions tho most vital to our welfare arc to bo considered. Among them are such as the following ; Is it not important that the Legislature should establish a land office in connection with n commissioner of immigration, which office shall furnish all persons wishing to pur chase and settle with full information of the location, vnluo, and properties of lands that are for sale ? Is it not important that tin; Legislature should make an annual appropriation to the State Agricultural Society sufficient to onable it to establish a Department of Agriculture, as a means of collecting all facts and information of general interest, for annual publication—of aiding tbe Society in defraying the expenses of its annual meetings and fairs—in collecting for such mootings whatever is valuable, curi ous and interesting in natural history—in scientific progress? Other States and nations, tho most advanced in all culture and refine ment, encourage, by material aid, such organ izations, Why should not Georgia? Tho policy of the present Legislature, in many features, has been wise and liberal. H is only necessary for you to consider what legis lation your interests require, and to give prop er expression of your wants and demands, and your claims will be admitted granted. There are other questions, not less impor tant, which must be answered, not by legisla tion, but by intense thought and reflection, tho result of this thought and reflection re duced to practical application, ami each man’s final conclusion interchanged freely, in com • men council, for the benefit of all. The peo ple of tho cotton belt must answer whether or not the free negro is now tho best laborer available for the cotton field, or whether, as Borne think, ‘ho must slide,’ die out, and give place to another. They must answer whether any laborer, white or black, can labor through the seasons necessary to produce and gather a cotton and corn crop in this climate, and have tho leisure and preserve the attitude requisite to any degree of mental and social culture. If it is to the interest of the cotton growers to save the negro, then what is the best, sys tem of management—upon what terms best to employ them—for wages in money or put t of The crop. Is it advisable to tenant them on separate farms? What restraints and penal ties can bo legally imposed in our contracts >witli them to compel the fulfillment on their ipari. On all these points, every man needs •every other man’s experience and advice.— Able committees have been appointed to make Teport in February ; the meeting cannot fail iu interest. It was never more important than now, that all should contribute something to the general fund of knowledge. Let those who have been successful in the management of the freedmen’s labor, give tho Convention in February written statements in detail of fiheir system. Let those who have failed in the management of this labor state in detail what was their system, and why they failed. Let the Convention he furnished with copies of the contracts under w hich you operated, accompanied by financial statement of the ex penses and profits of the operation. In this manner extraordinary interest may he im •pnrted to the proceedings of the meeting and great good accomplished. The Agricultural Society, by the terms of its Charter, is designed to encourage all im provement in mechanical arts, manufactures, mining, etc. All Societies or Associations or ganised for such purposes are requested to send delegations to the Convention. An appeal is here made to individuals who, in any part of the State, iiave given careful reflection to the situation of affairs—who have studied closely how the freedman’s labor is to be managed so as to make bis labor profitable t ■ tbe employer, and at tbe same time make a contented and happy laborer—and who have put the result of their reflection- into success ful practice—-to come to this meeting in Feb ruary, and in written essay, cive the whole country the benefit of their counsel and ex perience. If you cannot attend send in your papers, ~ An appeal is here made to every press in the .State to publish this notice, and to give tbe aid of the editorial pen, not once, but re peatedly, in urg’ng tbe people to action.— '1 here is not a pres- in the State. - . e portion of whose readers would not he reached by any other. Then let every press publish, and every editor write, and again write, as if tbe work and duty was exclusively bis own. Certainly these limes invite us to combined effort. Can any one doubt that the salutary solution of this new labor problem that is upon us demands the united effort and wisdom of a’l In-ads, hearts and hands? Can any doubt that the present remunerative prices <>f all agricultural products arc almost enough to entice the crowded idleness of our thorough fare to tho delightful labor of the field ? Can any doubt that th" present impulse in favor of high culture, and increased—more extended culture, if quickened and widened and deep ened, will go far not only to increase our wealth ami happiness as individuals and as a people, but far also to diminish tbe crime and profligacy that is everywhere—in high nr. well as in low places ? Let, then, our moss meeting in February make its utterance full and distinct mi all questions. Let the Legislature give the re quired. needful legislation. Let organized effort everywhere speak. Let tbe press teem with article after article, with thought after thought in the good cause. Let individual effort and enterprise, wherever successful in solving the difficulties of those times, come forth and make itself heard. And when all have been heard, and truth and wisdom have been combined, and fully arid distinctly utter ed, and carefully heeded, who will doubt that onr South will yet become what it once was, the best place to live in the world. Hy order of the Convention. D. W. LEWIS, Secretary. Macon, Duo. llttb, 18fiH. roil* or i'uxstitL"hok run nn vn xottn i i.ti - Kxt. SOCIETY. The undersigned, citizens of county, by affixing their names to the subjoined Con stitution, and by paying annually two dollars for membership, do form themselves into an organization to ho known as the , County Agricultural Society—the objects of which will he encouragement of all improve ment in agriculture, and of nil tho kindred arts and sciences which tend to increase the profits and pleasures of agricultural labor and render home life on the farm attractive and happy. Tho officers shall he a I’iosident, elected by ballot hy the members present at the close of each annual isMting j one Viee Pw bdsnl from each militia district .in the county ; a Secretary and n Treasurer—all elected in the same manner at the same time.

It shall ho the duty of this committee to encourage the monthly meetings of the Soeio ty, especially during the period of preparation for and the tillage of the crops; and to bring before such meetings those topics and questions forcolloquial debate, best calculated to keep up the work and the spirit of improvement. It shall further he the duty of this committee and of its individual members, to procure, from time to time, written os.ays and addresses on appropriate subjects from persons distinguished for their success in agriculture, or for their learning in the kindred arts and sciences. The Secretary shall keep a full and perfect record of tho proceedings of the Society.

The President shall have the power to call a special meeting of the Committee of tbe So ciety, when, in his opinion, tho interest of the Society requires it. The Flow of Currency Socth.— The money article of the Now York llcrald, of the Bth instant, says: “Forty or fifty millions of dollars lmv» gone South and have hesn. or will be, absorbed there. The flow of currency in that direction, at the present time is at ill going on, hut on a diminished scale. More will scale. More will gn in the Spring in the shape Northern capital, which, under the temptation of the high price of cotton, is seeking invest ment there. Emigration basset in and there will be a strong current in tho Spring.— The revival of cotton culture is a fever just now with capitalists. ’’ In confirmation of the foregoing, we have been shown Northern letters to tho house of L. & 11. McLaws, of this city, authorizing the purchase of a number of small farms, in Middle Georgia, of two and four hundred acres in extent, an advising that “Spring visits may be expected.—Aug. Chron. In 1862, the office of the Hagerstown, Md., Mail, was assailed by a mob, and the type, presses, books, &c., of the concern, destroyed, because of the alleged “rebel" proclivities of the editor, Daniel Dechert. Recently Mr. D. instituted suit against the corporation of Ha gerstown fur tire destruction of hie property, laying his damages at ten thousand dollars.— The ease was heard, and last week the jury rendered a verdict of 87,500 damages. Tho mill of justice grinds slow but sure. What was started in Atlanta for an elegant opera house has been converted into a Capitol for the State of Georgia. The building is five stories high, the upper one being covered by a French roof. The ground floor is occupied by storm. and the basement V.y a saloon and billiard room. Communicated.

A citizen of j the jlace must be doubly blind if be cannot j sec bat the College contributes greatly to this prosperity. Cj-'ti a very moderate estimate, , each vortig ladyhoardcr brings to the place j not less than three hundred hJ'ars. This ; amount would rod cover hoard and tuith n in j the two principal departments. In thi», ilmre ] is m allowance for Ornamentals and French, i which many will study, arid no allowance f r j goods and other expenses indispensable to a school girl in any place. Four hundred dollars distributed by each young lady, would be moderate : some it is true would not reach it, others wmii 1 exceed it. These figures are about e-.rroct, yet it is well known that the gentlemen who conduct the school, are pla»n men, and strongly opposed to extiavsganoe. Wc learn that ti e Faculty and Executive Com mittee arc laboring to bring from abroad one hundred pupils f,r the Spring term of the pre-cat Tear. \Vi;h the zealous cu opera!on of the ciiixens of tbe place, such a result is entirely practicable.

Such a result would be felt hy every citizen in the place, in the increase*] prosperity of his busi ness, and the enhancement of the value of his real estate. There is not a store, shop, office or profession in the town, that would nut feel the impulse. Will not the success of the past year encourage the faculty in their labors?— Let the citizens unite their efforts to make this institution whiit its founders intended it to he, the pride of their city, and an honor to the Masonic fraternity. It would certainly be suicidal in any citizen to withhold his patron age. to say nothing of opposing the eff rts of its friinde to plars it upon an enduring found ation. if the*o things are true in regard to the iM«*rc*tN of tho town and college, the pe«*pk* sh'*uld simultaneously rise and exert {h* to promote the*# interest**, without wmtiiig tot a moment to enquire who in the author of these thoughts.

Some may laugh that it should be. hut let them, lev hearts are never kind, ft is a word that has choked many an utterance, and started many a tear.

Tear uut v,on self away with a careless boldness that defies all love, but make your last words linger— giro the heart its full utterance —and if tears fall, what of it? Tears are not unmanly. A Good Sign. Colonel Forney announces that he has open ed a land agency at the office oi the Chronicle fur the sale of Southern lands. This is a good sigu. It argues that Colonel Forney is satisfied that the B,.nth is uot a den of assassins : that Northern people—even the extremest Radicals —may come hero without risk of life or proper ty ; and his being satisfied will go far to satisfy many others. IVe hope he may have great success in his undertaking. V\ o have a great many vacant places in the South which may be filled both to the. profit of those who till them and to that of tho community at large. We care not how many white men may come —nor how Radical they be —so they come to abide and to share our fortunes. They will be welcome all. They will soon see that our interest is their interest, and rice versa. If Congress could raise itself to the elevated statesmanship of Senator Ferry, of Connecticut and hy one act wipe out all invidious distinc tions the era cf good feelings would revive at once with a flood of prosperity in which every citizen of the Republic, might partake. Push that preposition, Colonel! Its adop tion will overwhelm you with land sales and confer blessings on every portion of the Union. [Richmond Whig.
