The Michigan delegates, who were
among the excursionists to Georgia from
the Northwest recently, have shown
their appreciation of tho courtiaie* and
attentions extended to thorn by the cit
izeus of Georgia by presenting to Dr.
W. IL White, of Atlanta, the chairman
of the committee of managers, a hand
some and costly nervine of silver, valued
at SBOO.OO, with resolution* of thanks
for hia untiring efforts to render tlieir
visit pleasant. The compliment is given
U> Dr. White as the representative of tho
committee and tlm citizens who rendered
valuable assistance. *
The praitieal results of this visit from
the North are partially seen iu un order
■eat to 001. it. K. Green, of Dalton,
from a Michigan gentleman, for tho
purchase of from 1,000 to 2,(VK) acres of
land. We hope that score* of others
will do likewise.

It is estimated, says an exchange, that
iu Georgia alone food products to the
value of about $.lO OOO.OtyO are auiunitly
receiveil from West, for which cash is
paid, besides which no less than $12,-
000,000 is obtained on credit. These
figures represent the aggregate value of
only such articles as can be raised with
success iu the Slate, ami give some idea
of neglected adv ntagee mi wed its of the
vast wealth that can be added both to
individuals and tl e State, if son o means
could he devised to attract ‘ thrifty and
expert eared tarm labor.

no much molin'i“fsUTiltyto'-ifTTflti'T* f.ivm
laborers, as ip the chronic ffisinrli nation
of our native population to do 1/wtr own
wbrk, and the erazv |*T«nd»noti of plan
ters to cultivate all cotton and purchase
provisions from abroad. It i« a well
established fact that cotton, at present
average price, barely pays for its produc
tion, but, iu spite of the experience of
ten years, and the utter poverty to which
nine-tenths of our planters have treen re
duced by this suicidal cotton mania,
nothing, it seems, short, of abnolut
starvation will open their eyes to their
oouaummute folly.

Tho Stockholders Convention of the
Georgia railroad assembles in Augusta
to-day. As usual, a bugii" uiuul ier o'l la

Among ether amusements during th*
week, to which viaitors are specially in
vited, is u “oalioo party," for the bcuefit
of the Young Men's Library Association,
of which the Chronicle tk Si ntine! says :
The party will take place at Masonic
Hall on the evening of Thursday, the
11th utst. The ladies are requested to
come iii calico dresses, which, after the
party is over, can be given to the deserv
ing poor of the city. Hi tivahuumts will
lie served during the evening, and a Hue
band of music null be in attendance.
Recognizing the hard times, the gentle
men in charge of the affair intend giving
on entertainment which will be cheap
aud at the same time wry pleasant, and
which is gotten up in aid of a moat use
ful and deserving institution. Thursday
has been selected ns the lime because the
ueasiou of the Georgia Railroad Con veil
tiou will bring a great many persons ,
from othor oofutiea to the city, and the
presence of our friends from the counties
along the line of tho Georgia Railroad is
specialty desired upon the occasion. A
full.representation is expected and de
sirnl from Atlanta, Newton, Morgan'.
Greene, Clarke, Oglethorpe, Taliaferro,
Wilkes, Lincoln, Elbert, Columbia,
Warren, Hancock, McDuffie mid Burke.
The.price ol tickets !<**» been fixed at the
very- low sum of one dollar ; refre hment

hope that the ladies of Augusta will take
a special interest in the matter and ren

On Thursday morning last more than
time hundred persons boarded the ears
between Greeuesboro ami Augusta for an
excursion to Port Royal. 'The copious
showers of two days previous had made
the atmosphere delightfully pleasant,
had settled tho dust., and on the morning
of the departure ot the train not a cloud
speck could be seen. Nature seemed de
termined to lend her sweetest charms on
the occasion, and the party, composed
of the bounty and intelligence of Greene,
Taliaferro, Oglethorpe, Wa ren mid Mc-
Duffie comities were fully capable of ap
preciating the beutiiies spread out every
where before them.
It was generally understood that se r
erul hours would bo spent in Augusta,
eonrecpiently upon arriving at that city
lit 3 p. m. the party dispersed iu differ
ent direction!!, sumo on business, some
in quest of pleasure. At six o’clock a
majority attended the Presbyterian
church and had the satisfaction and
pleasure of listening to a sermon from
tlm world-renowned evangelist, Mr.
Moody. The exoreiues at the church
having closed, the curs were again tilled,
ail'd at the proper hour moved off toward
Port Royal. Night and a desire for
sleep prevented extensive observations
along the ionic, until whe-u within u few
miles of the place of destination day
broke upon the party ogaiu. Nature
hud a different picture to present that
morning. The night's travel had left
the lulls uml rippling streams of Middle
Georg.h lar in the distance and the low
lands and marshes of Carolina, with here
and there a cabin and a patch, invited
comment. Seven o'clock found the par
ty at Port Royal, until iccently an ob
scure village, but which, on account of
her magnificent harbor, which at pres
ent accommodates the immense war
ships of the South AtlauUo Bqinulrou,
-- I'.'i-i'- w;’" fugue. «» <nw
largest coast cities, llero also is located
the tit to wive works of the Port Royal
Lime (Jouipuuy where lime is inumifac
tured from oyster shells, ami about
which onr farmers have heard so much
he present season.
We arc not sufficiently familiar with
the status of affairs to make conjectures
as to the future of this seaport town.
That she jKissesses advantages over all
other entries ou account of the width
and depth of ciiuuuel cannot be denied.
This will always be the means of inviting
vessels of heavy draft to her wharfs.
Again, the Port Royal Railroad being the
most direct lino to tho interior adds much
to the buainess of the port. Just here
we will take occasion to speak a word iu
favor of 001. It. G, Fanning, Superin
tendent of the lo id. When it is remem
bei'v•: how nmoli embarrassed the com
pany have neon—-how mud they have
halt to struggle against the weight of
heavy indebtedness, made more burdeo
s one on account of tile general tagua
tiatt in business, and then sec what pro
gress the r mil has inode—the condition
of the track, rolling stock, curs, depots,
etc., it speaks volumes in praise of tin
management of Col. Fleming,
But, w - did not inteud to digress so
far, and without spegkiug at length oi
i the causes tliat retard the progress of the
town of Port Royal, iii the way 'of high
prices of pn-operty, had govermuent of
I the ocUnty ot Beaufort, iu couseqiuince
: of the predominouec of the negro etr
i incut, ifcc., vvv will pay our respects again
i to the excar-iouists,
1 At the depot we were met by Capt, J.
■I- Allen, of tin-Port Royal Lime Com
pany, who "had taken great interest in
I making arrangements to receive us. We
, were immediately taken to Hutchinson's
i Hall w hitgr hud been gratuitously ten
dered for our use by its worthy thvner,
; where reoeptiou rooms, properly fnr
i niaheil, had !>een prepuivd for both la
dies and gv iiUemeu. Tho hurry and e\
j eiteuuut iueideut to the occasion pre
j vented a proper acknowledgement for
Mr. Hutchinson's hiyduess, at the time,
l but as it is never too late to dp good we
| take occasiou now, in behalf of the, par
; fy, to return thanks and recommend him
| to the favor of those who may iu future
| visit Port Royal, Mr. W. H. So f t also
■ has tlm lUauktt of the party for coustaut
: kindness anij attention.
Toilets having been adjusted, lunches
were spread out and eaten, wiieu the
crowd began to make tlieir way towards
the whan where it was expected the boat
was iu readme- 1 to traus(>ort the party
to the sea. Imagine their elmgriu when
they huirncd that the tKiiit was not in
waiting nor ereu in The maua
! gers telegraphed to Sswannoh and re
. wived the eepiyt that she would arrive at j
eleven o’clock. This aunouncement j
somewhat soothed the tempoimy diaape .j
t- iutment, and all sought pleasure iu j
some way or other until the boat should ;
arrive. Three mtrch int ve suls, namely,
the Carondolet, Annie Bliss aud O. \V.
Imem lying at the wharf loading, j
, ;ii J a mnjo- ity of the party pa-ked the
j time on board the first named. Finally,
| block volumes of smoke weieseen roll
-1 ing upward from ttr*“ waters as the proud
! steamer which was to take us to sea
came riding the waves in the direction of
Port Royal, aud noon she was moored
alongside the wharf. But little time
was e msumeff in getting the party on
board the vessel, when Capt. White, her
polite and accommodating commander,
rang the bell and steamed down the bar-
Itor, paftstog the Fleet, and approaching
the bar below Hilton Head. Excess of
joy filled the-bosom of every one as they
were borne along the tub-, and the ocean
breeze that swept so gently by caught np
and echoed the song of many merry
hearts, while the soft strains of music
from the splendid Brass Band which ac
companied us, rendered the scene and
occasion wonderfully romantic.
Wheu the steamer first rolled on the
tide of mother ocean':: watei s miitiy ex- j
pcrierced a fainty Beusa‘iou mid some i
were made quite sick. The Captain of j
the vessel saw the effect aud while many i
urged him to cross the bar, he plead that
the loud was too great to run the risk
with the tide swelling so rapidly, and
hastened to reverse his course. Return
ing, the boat hailed the monitor, Dieta
tor, w heu one of the officers of that ves
sel approached to ascertain the wishes of
the party. Being informed, we were in
vited to approach the larboard side, an
chor and go on board this wonderfully
constructed war ship. We were kindly
received by Capt. Weaver, who is ut
present in command of the Fleet, and
soon the entire party were scattered over
tho vessel while the different officers en
deavored to answer all questions askei ,
and give all information iu regard to ma
chinery, construction, Ac., that our lim
ited time would allow. We would be
glad that we had tho ability to give a full
descriptiou of this powerful war ship.
Time and study would be necessary for
this, and we can only say here that it
must be seen to be appreciated. After
the sight seeing had ended music and
dancing was indulged in for awhile to
tho gratification of many. Thanking
tho efficient Capt. Weaver for his kind
ness we b and adieu to himself anil crew
and steamed up the river to Beaufort.
Here may still be seen the marks of
wealth, but the changed condition of
things has v rougbt decay iu many places
where onco luxury abounded. We next
turned our faces Port Royulwurd, and y
six o’clock were again on terra /Irma.
Having seen the entire programme
carried out the delighted party were now
ready to return to their homes to reflect
aud talk of wttet they had seen. At ten
o'clock p. in. the train moved out in the
direction of Augusta and arrived at Hint
joity early next uiomiu|g. *-.
few hours here and the crowd again
boarded the oars on the Georgia Itail
heart.! filled with pleas
ure and memories stored ilia Wi
otieotlona of the- trip, betook themselves
to their bourn*.
THE LUNATIC ASYLUM. " ’
During tlia last session of the Georgia
legislature about t wo-thirds of the time
aud thousands of dollars of the people's
money were spent in Ixuubnstic speeches
and tiresome delmtce on local bills, in
which the public had no interest what
ever, to th* inclusion of Knitters of vital
importance. T|ie Press oi the .kfaio was
almost unanimofis in condemnation of
this, nonsensical iwd exjsmsive legisla
tion, and were constantly calhng, Uie
attention of the law-makers to mahy
subjects upon which prompt and careful
octiou was imperative, Anwiqj other,
thiugs, tho present " eoudit iijn rtf the Lu
natic Asylum was frequently and urgent
ly pressed upon their sttention. The
rejxirts. from the officers of that tmtfHii*
tion were succinct mid comprehensive,
and were umply htifiicicut to arouse the
latent interest of the most obtuse of bur
Scions ; but the combined influence of
file Press, the people aud the public
good were inadequate to the task, and
uml the Legislature adjourned without
making the necessary appropriations for
the enlargement ami support of tho Asy
lum.
Tho Institution is, and was, while the j
Legislature was iu session, crowded be- |
vend all roasou, aud many poor lunatics ]
were and are now being turned away, :
for want, of room, and in many instances,
forced to languish for months in damp,
filthy county jaik, where recovery is
impossible, and permanent and incurable
lunacy almost certain. There are now
about sevouty applications for admission
ou file with no vacancies.
The people of Georgia ought to select
better Legislative material this Fall, or
engage Moody to lecture them ou the
subject of common humanity.
ADMINISTRATIVE CORRUPTION.
The Telegraph aud Messenger, of
recent date has this :
The paths of the investigating commit- '
tees descend and deepen in sombreness j
and gloom every day. They strike new I
sinks of iniquity with every advance, j
and the signs of liai and aud solid ground
become fewer and fewer. The prospects ;
are that they must bring up at last in a I
J bottomless mass of irredeemable publio I
disorder and corruption. If Premier’s j
statement iu the Sunday dispatches is !
true, then we suppose there can las noth- !
I ing at all reliable m any of the financial I
records of the government. It will be ;
1 impossible to tell, with any approach to :
accuracy, what, the government owes;
: what eircrihitiou is outstanding, and hn» i
| mnefi of gcvrvmmnit paper rvctirdtai as j
; destroyed in still oatatondieg and in <*ir- J
culatjoo. Ail the Treasury Dejiartment- <
figures ere a lie, and the move they are i
studied-the more will they misled.
The Allele coucern is a* Great Dismal
Swamp, of unfathomable,'black corrup* j
tion, none seem to have touA ed the \
t'ublie moneys, neroiiuts mid t«rv<llt < but *
to disorder and to steal. The man Preu
der i* a terrible fellow—a fate—ft demi
r and of universal distru it an l oonfoaion
if be is not misrepresented. We hope
he is—we trast he cannot prove all the
St, Louis Times says be ean. It will
be proving quite too much. Even the
Great Dismal Swamp boasts of some
hard standing ground, and in the worst
part of it one can take to a tree. But
there’s no hard ground—ami no lofty
umbrageous trees noon w’ji ;h public
honesty can call a halt or gain a momen
tary repose, if Prender states the facts.
All is morass—all is rotten.
The Constitution, on the same subject
says :
The party that saved the nation, the
moral jiartv, will soon have a fine rec
ord. The story of its frauds, crimes
and official tnrpitide already fills one
hundred and twenty-six octovo volumes
