To-morrow the regular commence ment exercises take place in the forenoon, with the Baccalaureate address. Ac., and the presentation of sophomore medals, by Hon. O. A. Bacor. The programme ©»>rs a iich treat to the intelligent public. Large portions of the cotton crop of Houston c yontv has been abandoned to the gTass. On Friday night twelve or fourteen severe cases of cfcelera morbus were reported in Perry. Too free in dnlgence in ice cream at a party, by the young people, was the cause. No deaths, but some close shavings. In s smsshnp on the Rome Railroad last Monday evening, at Baas’ Ferry, Mr. Todd, the condnctor was caught under the baggage and had bis arm broken. Rome is making extraordinary exertion? in a sani- tory point of view. The People's Friend, at Rome, says: Mr. A. B. Wrenn, traveling agent of the Nashville, Chattanooga A St. Louis Railroad, called to see us this morning. He and his excellent wife are spending a few days in our mountain city, breathing the pure, fresh air, and drinking our delicious water, while at the same time he* is working np the interests of his road. Wrenn is a thorough business fellow, and we wish him success in all things and Lsppicesa forever.

Mr. Charles Wallace Howard will address the citi zens of Cobb county on the first day of July, on the subject of the -Patrons of Husbandry.” Cherokee county crop reports are favot abler. Cotton looks well and promises an ample return. Corn is fine; the area planted ia smaller than last year, conse quently the farmers will make none for sale. Oats are promiaiig—particularly tbo Norway variety. Wheat is very light—not half a crop. Hon. Dunlap Scott, of Rome, has associated with him in the law business Mr. C. A. Thomwell. a rising young lawyer of that city. Rome is uneasy about the one hundred thou sand dollars she subscribed to the North and South railroad. A committee of Council is caked for to investigate why and wherefore, and all about it. Twenty people were baptized by immersion in Co lumbus, on Sunday last, and added to the Baptist Church. South Carolina. THE OLD PALMETTO STATE UNDER NEGRO RI LE — NO CHANCE FOR WHITE MEN—SC ALLAWAGER f AND ITS EFFECTS—ATTENTION TO AOkl CCLTTRE — ESTABLISHMENT OF GRANGES— THF. HERALD IN CAROLINA—ME. A. H. .STEPHENS AND HIS VIEWS. Granges are established everywhere. The agricultural community is organized and com bined. Farming is no longer regarded as a menial occupation, but has attained that hon orable position it justly deserves. No man feels prouder than when driving his own plow upon bis own land. Only one disagreeable feature threatens to mar the pictnre, and that is the degrading tendency oi some to truckle to the extrava gant notions of the negro in order to retain his labor. This tendency, however, may be somewhat checked by a reduction in the area planted; and it is to be hoped that it will soon be entirely removed by a systematic and com bined scheme for the introduction of white immigrants as permanent settlers and land owners. This, at last, is the only salvation of the South politically as well as agriculturally. The independent character of your paper is much admired. Independent journalism is just what we need to arrest the destructive effects of party spirits. Your strictures upon Mr. Stephens’ posi tion in reference to Grant and the Louisiana troupes receive favorable comment. Mr. Stephens has always been regarded as a far-sighted man, but when he sees beanties in Grant, the supposition is reduced to a cer- tainty, for he out-secs all of his unfortunate neighbors. His recently expressed opinions cast a shadow upon his past career. When it was known that he was sent to Congress from Georgia, South Carolina rejoiced in the as surance that the South would have an able advocate in the counsels of the nation, and it is hoped that she will not be disappointed. If in the Louisiana difficulty be sees any thing else than an infamous outrage upon a conquered and helpless people, he is at va riance with his neighbors across the Savan nah, it not with bis own constituency. Independence of thought is noble, but pre sumption upon popularity for any cause is un wise. Mr. S. is much beloved here. Even his History of the United States is finding its way into our schools as a text-book for the young. Let him, therefore, be consistent. Like Lee, who is acknowledged by the world as the great man of the war. North or Sonth, may he transmit to posterity a record worthy of emulation and in consenance with his past career. S. R. M It permits him to respite and make a report of his action to the next legislature. There is no law compelling him to report to the Gen eral Assembly in case he should prefer, for sat isfactory reasons, to admire the 4 ‘old Mosaic Code,” to that spirit of “good will to man” which was subsequently bora amid the “re joicing of the morning stars.” We repeat, then, it is wrong to denounce Governor Smith or any other Governor for the exercise of a discretion under the terms of a discretionary law. Is it not more sensible to examine into the law and inquire, is it or is it not • ‘nf< ctive? Your correspondent, Messrs. Editors, ends his communication with these suggestive queries, directed to the reflecting readers of the Herald: 1st, Is it in harmony with the genius of a true Republican Government to vest, in any one single man, whether of the faith of Abra ham, or of Saint John, the power which this section of the Constitution may do, i. e., the disposal of life, liberty and property; not to mention the incidental disturbance of the public peace ? 2d, Would not the harmonius action of true Democratic Government be best preserved, and “the ends of justice” fully secured by transferring the power to reprieve, com mute and pardon from the Executive to the ju dicial department of the State Government; ( say the Supremo Court) before whom all points, legal and equitable, bearing on the case of the condemned person should bo heaid, on motion by petition or prayer ? I have no argument now to make in sup port of these propositions affirmatively, but only present them for the reflection of your many readers in Georgia. O. Alabama Notes. ATLANTA PAPER MILLS.

Old Oglethorpe. MASONIC FESTIVAL AND SUNDAY SCHOOL CELE BRATION INTERESTING EXERCISES HOVV THE YOUNG LADIES ACQUITTED THEM SELVES—NO OLD MAIDS —INTEREST ING ALDRISSES—A FIRST CLASS DINNER PLEASANT AND ENJOYABLE DAY. Special Correspondence Atlanta Herald. Oglethorpe, Ga , June 27, 1873. This morning, the 27th of June, “ the veil was lifted,” and the monotonous routine of the ordinary transactions of life was suspend ed for the day. The great and small, impor tant and unimportant people of the quiet vil lage of Oglethorpe and the surrounding vicu na were gathered together for festive pur poses. SUNDAY SCHOOL EXERCISES. The forenoon was occupied by the Sunday school organization in various exercises, con sisting m singing, speaking, etc. The music was elegant, reflecting credit upon teachers and pupils. It is almost unnecessary here to repeat a stereotyped fact, that the ladies were au fait on this occasion. The young ladies, Misses Fish, Hey wood, Griffin, Williams, Hudson, and iu fact all the class, probably contributed *moro to the complete success ot the programme than any other persons, for without music the exercises would have been stale and insipid. The little Misses Willis, Collins, Fish, Williams, Greer, and others, following in the tracks of their seniors, ren dered their parts splendidly. MARRIED LADIES AND OLD MAIDS. Of the married ladies we will not attempt to speak, as this would be an encroachment upon the prerogatives of their husbands, who can and will speak for them. Of the “old maids” we cannot speak, as we have none of this class, and, so far as we are historically in formed, there never existed but one, who died thirteen years before the birth of Confucius with a disease of the scalp caused by repeated attempts to “fix up her back hair.” (See the report of the Mandarin at that time, page 119, vob I.) THE ADDRESS AND DINNER. The address delivered to the school, by the Kev. Mr. Sistrunk, was enter taining, instructive and amusing, which met the approval and commendation of all. At noon that part of the programme which particularly attracted and claimed the undivided attention of all was This consisted of an overabundant quantity of the various -® ^^^^^^^^. edibles, both vegetable and animal, in which I say Palmetto, doubtless from habit, for it j tliis portion of the country abounds.

Herald Special Correspondence. Opelika, Ala., June 27, 1873. As yours is the only paper I have been a patron of for years, that I did not make somo sort of a contribution to its columns, I con cluded to-day to give you some items of news as I wished to write you any way. First, I will say in reference to the crop of Alabama, so far as my knowledge extends, there was but little land sown in wheat, and the yield of that has been poor. There was much more land sown in oats this than there was last year, and the crop is good, but there was not near as much sown as shonld have been. Very few faimers in this portion of Alabama have commenced to try the benefits of clover and the grasses, which can be suc cessfully raised here. There was more corn planted in this section this year than last, although the corn crop owing to the late spring, is small for this time of the year, nevertheless, it looks prom ising, and if the seasons hold out, a fair crop will be made. The cotton crop is smaller, perhaps, in area than last year, but much more fertilizers have been used this this year than last, but owing to the exceed ing wet season, the cotton is small, and in many farms much injured by the grass, and the geueral cry is, a half crop cannot bo made this year. But I am aware cotton is a weed, a sun plant, and if it is freed from grass, in due time will make weed enough in July, and fruit enough in August, to make a full crop. Truly, while the general cotton crop is small and glassy, there is some highly furtilizod patches that have been kept free from grass, that is fine. I have some thirty inches high, that I think will lock in a three and a halt foot row in thirty days. So much for what I know about crops. My main object in writing to you was to request your clerk not to omit to send my pa per every day. I miss my paper occasionally, and I always regret it. I can excuse him for missing a name sometimes, when I know the hour in which the mail is made up and think of the number of papers that have to be directed, I don’t wonder that a man shonldjbe missed sometimes, but as my name occurs early in the alphabet I should think lie might get through with A aud B before lie nodded over a name. I assure you I had rather miss my dinner any day than to miss my Herald, regarding it as I do, the I anner paper of the South. I regard it as superceding the neces sity of taking any other newspapers, lienee I have abandoned all others, beat it, because when I get it and read it through, it always gives me all the news that is worth knowing, unless it be pi reliance some little local matter in some remote sec tion. I think the Sunday eight page issue worth twenty-five cents a copy.

It is impossible for outsiders, especially yon Georgians, who seem to breathe a little free air, and enjoy seme of the beneti s of self-government, thoroughly to realize the condition of our State. Intelligence is chained, honesty is derided, and, under the flaunting banners of Republicanism, ignorance, preju dice and villainy reign supremely. T! “r ver<except in the upper counties) i *.-» r.o voi -d whatever in the government. He is furnbb the money, but not to dictate bow is to b< used. No matter how it is squandered, t .r favoritism or party support, it is none of hi* business. The press ji.it y rave, conventions may be called, petition may be drawn, bat all with as mod effect upon our dusky Solans and their iigtder satellites as the buzzing of so many insects. The eyes of the negroes cannot be shat to what ia tianspiring around them. The glar ing absence of school advantages, although the money has been raised for the purpose every year, cannot fail to excite their atten tion; bnt such is their inculcated hatred to the white people that they willingly suffer these inconveniences rather than jeopardize the interests of their party. When the people, the mighty sovereign, the vox tl populi vox dei.” is thus controlled, what hope can we indulge for a cure of the diseases of the body politic? The white people who pay almost the whole tax, go ahead supporting their own schools just as if there were no htate Educational De partment at all. But to relate the various plans of fraud aud oppression would be tiresome and nninterest- ing. i&cpublicanism, the toasted party of pro gress and civilization, is the fruitful source of all. Bolstered by negro votes, aud propagated by its State-paid press, it sweeps everything before it. A lesson of human nature may be profita bly drawn from an observation of the extreme hilarity with which this press chronicles the demise of a conservative paper, as if totally uBnonscious of the glaring and hnmilit&ting fact that its very existence depends upon con servative money, i.e., the taxes which it re ceives ostensibly for State printing. But while the Republican press derives its chief support from this source, its plausible and pet cries of “progress,” “ new men and new ideas,” in opposition to what is popular ly styled “fogyism and effete notions,” strikes a responsive chord in in the degrading tenden cy of human nature “to go with the winning aide,” and brings it warm advocates. But it must not be argued from this that scalawagery is general with us in this State. *Tis true we have a larger share of it than we would like to ase, but a large majority among us who fought in the Confederate army and red to a surrendered to superior numbers, have never abandoned the principles of the “lost cause,” but recognize its truth and justice more vivid ly under oppression than when its flag float ed triumphantly over Sumter aud Manassas. We recognize ourselves as the conquered subjects of the United States, rendering such allegiance as usage and duty demands from the subject to the conquered, but not in any way yielding our belief in the doctrine of State Sovereignty. Eschewing politics as beyond redemption, the honest men of Carolina, with characteris tic energy, are devoting themselves to the im provement of the State in other ways. Never before was agriculture in a more flourishing condition, and all owing to the en terprise of the old native fogies, the stumbling block# to progress. One acre produce# now what two or three did More. eat,” but we will say, and challenge contradic tion, that there was an excessive supply of everything palatable and nutricious, being sufficient in quantity for twice the number who were present; as to the “gnawing,” call on those who were present al>out to-morrow evening. Order, system and harmony prevailed. We heard no complaints, and believe this part of the day closed with all in nniversal content ment. AFTERNOON ADDRESS. In the afternoon the members of Masonic Fraternity, of Oglethorpe, in connection with the invited visiting brethren of the Montezu ma Lodge, marched from the lodge iu full regalia to the Church, to listen |to an address by the Rev. Mr. Oushy, which, as is nsual with the reverend gentle man, was delivered in an impressive and didactic style. The subject matter of the address was discussed in a profound manner, and doubtless furnished thought for his audience in future. The address being con cluded, they formed into the usual procession and returned to the lodge, aud thus the day tranquilly closed, without ought to mar or disturb the exercises of either organization. May such festivals and celebrations be of more frequent occurrence, and in the com! mon valedictory of General Jeb Stuart, I say lo both organizations, “long may they wave. T. P. L. LI P. S.—I omitted to mention that the| speeches by the little boys—Masters Bobbie Greer, Eddie Glazier, Elijah Turner and Willie Crawford—were handsomely delivered. L. Covinoton, Ga., June 19, 1873. To the Editors of the Herald: To an observing person this terrible “ talk” one bears wherever be goes throughout Geor gia, about the 44 Tyrant at Atlanta,” who hangs people for offenses against the laws of this State, is, in the humble opinion of a very humble citizen all wroivj. What, pray, has Governor Smith, or any other Governor of a free and independent people, to do with the matter of the inno cence or the guilt of a person, arraigned,| tried and found guilty before our courts ?\ Let us consider a moment in answering this question Section 4950 of our Revised Code (God save xkofre/m the necessity of a code !) and Ar ticle 2nd, Section 2nd of the Constitution ot Georgia reads as follows: —(Referring to the duties of the Governor)—] “He shall have power to grant reprieves for offenses against the State, except in cases of impeachment and to grant pardons, or to remit any part of a sentence in all cases after conviction, except for treason, murder, or other capital offenses, in which cases he may respite the execution, and make report ttmeof to tbo next General Assembly." (Italics are mine.) This, Messrs. Editors, is precisely the law under which Rufus B. Bullock, Ute by the special permission of a providence most inscrutable, Governor of Georgia, 44 Ac., et cetera,” pardoned some from the penitentiary, committed the sentences of others, and gener ally addressed himself to the “ dear people,” through the facied ethics of an old saying, 45 Whitehall street. |y r L.

Litarary Chit-Chat. A writer in the Fortnightly Review for June sums up Mr. Fitzjames Stephens’ theology in this little story: The master of a workhouse in Essex was once called in to act as chaplain to a dying pan per. The poor soul faintly murmured somo hopes of heaven; but this tho master abruptly out short, and warred him to turn {his thoughts towards hell. “And thankful you ought to be,” said be, “that you have a hell to go to.” The Italian poet Manzoiii was in early life a free-thinker in religion, but in 1810 he mar ried, and became ever after a devout Catholic. In 1834, he published a treatise on the “Mo rality of Catholicism,” in reply to Sismundi’s strictures on the teachings of tho Papacy in the Middle Ages, in his “History of the Italian Republics.” An economical English woman has pub lished a book entitled “How to Dress on EI5 a Year.” Tbo chief obstacles to so doing, she saj’s, are men, who object to any but 4 pretty” dresses, and like to see women set off by decorative ait. The ingenious author makes out her case, and really shows a goodly supply of dresses for 4:15 a year in London; though if she had her shopping to do iu New York, it could not be accomplished. Houghton’s “Monographs” has this new story ot Sydney Smith: He was good-natured and tolerant; but when Lord Melbourne, w hom ho had gone to see upon some busi ness, interlarded his conversation with much cursing and swearing, he quietly remarked, “Let os assume that everybody and every thing are damned, and proceed with the sub ject.” The Saturday Review’, in a keen article on ‘The Decline of Bunkum,” dissects the appa ratus of agitation which has so often been brought to bear with effect upon Parliament. “You have only to give your orders to a pro fessional expert, and ho w ill conjure you upon agitation on any subject at a moment’s notice. He will provide yon with petitions by tho mile and signatures by the million. All that is wanted for a meeting is a hall, o chairman, half a dozen-speakers and a bundle of cut- and-dry resolutions; and all these the profes sional agent has at command. Tho ‘kept press’ is one ot the institutions of the day. A noisy chorus is an important part of thep?r- formance.” Professor Max Muller presses against Mr. Darwin the argument of language, that the bridge between the speaking and the inarticu late animal cannot bo found, and that this one gulf separates them forever, tho brute being incapable of rational speech. The Spectator thinks that Mr. Fitzjames Stephens’ creed may be summed np as, “Cal vinism with tho bottom knocked out.” Walter Savage Landor related bow ho once met Napoleon walking in tho garden of the Tuileries, and added, in characteristic Landor style :—“The fellow looked at me so insolently that if I had not had a lady on my arm I should have knocked him down.” The Belgian courts aro as prompt as those of France in dealing with swindlers. Henri de Bonneval, a scion of the royal bouse of Navarre, borrowed several hnndred thousand francs in Brussels on the security of shares in “Algerian Cotton Company.” The “Algerian Coiton Company" turned out to be an African Little Emma Mine, and de Bonneval was ar rested.
