Agriculture. TUB AURICULTUBAL MEET1NO AND FAIR AT POWDER SPRINGS—ABLE SPEECH OF GOV ERNOR SMITH — HE ADVOCATES A BUREAU. To the Editors of the Herald: Thursday last will be long remembered by the people of Cobb and the adjoining conn- lies as the occasion of one of the most marked and interesting meetings ever held in Georgia, in behalf of the interests of Agriculture. The assemblage was a very large one. It must have been unusually large tor a county meeting, as we were informed that one thou sand tickets were issued at the gate, and we feel assured that not more than one half of those on the ground entered the gate by ticket, until tbe speaking bad progreseed a consider able time. It had been announced that Gov ernor Smith would be present to give the en- courag moot of his presence and voice to the great iuterestfc which were to be promoted by the noting. But late Wednesday evening, a was received from tbe„ Governor, &ing tbe unpleasant announcement that hblic business of a pressing character 'onId prevent his appearance and that he i^os sorry to say that he must not be B^tod for to take his allotted post in tnto programme. But to the most agreea ble surprise of every one, about twelve o’clock the whisper went through the throng that Governor Smith and Judge Trippe had ar rived, and at the conclusion of some very in teresting remarks from Colonel Lester, of Cobb, the Governor was urgently called for. His Excellency took the stand, and though laboring at the time nnder serious indisposi tion, said he would rise only to say what pleasure it afforded him to be present on such an occasion, and to witness such an assem blage of the people called together lor the most patriotic of purposes. Before sitting down he would say to those before him that the times were full ot serious interest if not of serious portent. Dissatisfaction with our financial condition. State and personal, was wide spread—labor was unmanageable and scarce — agricultural enterprise was very often discouraged by results amounting in many instances to disastrous failure, and to sum up the whole thing, so far as our condition as a State was concerned, twenty thousand Georgians emigrated last year. TLat told a sad tale, either of mis management or discouragement, and in the case of a people possessing the noblest heri tage ever vouchsafed bj God to human beings. lie had recently conversed with gen- tlemcn of large experience and extensive ac quaintance with every part of the world, who had assured him that in no quarter of the habi table globe had they seen a fairer or move desirable country than the soil of Georgia afforded. He himself, after making all al lowance for State pride and State love, fully believed what they told him. Bnt why was it that Georgians were deserting their good old mother, why was labor discouraged and why did not the State saperabound with the comforts of life ? Why, simply because men did not stop to think—because the talent of the State was in a great degree unavailable, and our advantages, from mere want of pur pose and statesmanship, allowed it to lie almost derelict. Beside this, it was a fact that he was com pelled to mention with much pain, the best interests of the State for years had been en trusted to inexpert hands or to those who were not in close sympathy with them. Too long bad it been tbe case that farmers and mechanics iu Georgia had suffered the repre sentation of their dearest interests to fall to the care of merely professional men who could not regard those interests with that de- grto of solicitude and tenderness that their advancement demanded. Who can tell the physical advantages of the State, county by county, as they should be unfolded to ail en quirers? Governor of Georgia, as he was, he frankly confessed that he could not. If a foreigner wishing to remove to this State should ask him for a minute detail of the resources of Georgia—of its mines— its marl beds—its peculiar adaptness to all sorts or any sorts of industrial enterprise, the best he could do, or the very best that any living man could do, would be to answer in a few unsatisfactory generalities. This, for men of safe business habits, will never answer, and how much less would it satisfy the mind of a man iu Europe who thought about expatria ting himself and casting his lot among per fect strangers. The State of Georgia should bo known at a glance as perfectly as her boundaries are, in every department of her IJfcjundless resources. But this cannot be "none without a faithful scientific reconnois- ance, and that sort of thing costs money, aud that, it seems, we are not willing to spend. But there i* uc wisdom in parsimony that keeps men blind forever to even their own interest-*. The Lest talent, too, of the State must be evoked and set to work for the redemption of the noble old Common wealth. Our Legislature must be reformed. That talent that now lies nestling at home—that is now j unavailable to the public—must come to the • front, h 11st give its days and its nights to the resuscitation of our declining and decaying fortunes. They can be restored—Georgia can, by intelligent effort, rise from her pres ent dejection, and if her means are wisely utilized, she can be made the garden of the < outinent. Governor Smith took decided ground in favor of tbe establishment, by law, of a De partment of the Interior, so to speak, for the Statt. He wished to have a department in the State which should be specially charged with the agricultural interests, the mining in terests, and all statistical data of the State. By collecting and collating all facts and dis coveries bearing upon these great departments of our material resources and periodically pub lishing to the people the information so col let ted. No man could estimate the influ- el c) it must exert upon the improvement and advancement of our fortunes. This part of the Governor’s speech was delivered aith a striking force and im pressiveness and created a profound sensa tion. I wish it could be allowed me to write in full a report, as my mind vividly retains it, of this masterly effort of Governor Smith. I believe it would do good, and great good, if it could be given tbe public, and I hope that this will be done. For years I have been a zealous friend of the cause of our agriculture and have attended very many meetings of its friends, but Thursday’s fair at Powder Spring was one of the most interesting I ever at tended, and Governor Smith’s speech one of the very ablest I ever heard on Georgia agri cultural reform and one likely to effect more good in tbe impression it is to make on the public mind. Agricola. General Notes. The old Walworth mansion in Saratoga has a deserted look, being occupied only by Mrs. Chancellor Walworth, the aged grandmother of Frank. She is eighty years old. Her hair is silvered, bnt she is still a fine looking wo man. Says the Cape May correspondent ot the Sunday Times : "It turns out now that the bogus Lord Massey, who cut such a splurge here a few days ago, resides near West Ches ter, Pa., and was formerly a lieutenant in the British navy. It is said he was cashiered for drunkenness. ” On Saturday Bear Admiral G. II. Scott, commanding the North Atlantic station,*paid a visit to General Barry, commanding at Fortress Monroe, accompanied by his staff. He was received with the customary salute, which was returned by tbe flagship Worces ter. The Walworth murder bears l'ruit. Tbe other day in New York an old man and a young man disputed on the street. They were father and son, and the latter, had it not been for the bystanders, would have shot liis parent with a pistol he held in his hand. They were at last separated. Their names were not discovered. Houghton’s "Monographs” has this new story of Sydney Smith: "He was good natured and tolerant; but when Lord Mel bourne, whom he had gone to see upon some business, interlarded his conversation with much cursing and swearing, he quietly re marked, ‘Let us assume that everybody aud everything are damned, and proceed to the subject •" Secretary Belknap reached Cape May on Saturday, and was met at the depot by the Reception Committee and escorted to the hotel. He is accompanied by his son and his niece, Miss Rutherford. He was welcomed by Hon. Morton McMichael, J. B. Fales, and Dr. William H. Pancoast on behalf of the Reception Committee. A grand reception ball was given in the evening at the Stockton. Although usually very moderate at table, the Shah helps himself abundantly to any dish that pleases him very much, and during his stay in England has acquired a taste for good wine, especially claret At Woolrich Ar senal, he was so frightened by a red hot iron, that he took to his heels, and could with dif ficulty be persuaded to inspect the operations from a distance. The Mount Joy (Pa.) Herald says: W. A. Hambright is the oldest conductor now run ning on the Pennsylvania Railroad. He com menced his career by taking the first train (horse cars) to Philadelphia in 1833. Mr. Thomas Cunningham ranks next. His con- ductorship dates back to 1837, and although in his seventieth year, looks as sprightly and keen as ever. John Reesus is next, and went on the road in the year 185*2. The following members of tbe diplomatic \ corps are now at Newport for the season: Mar quis de Noailles, French Minister; Admiral B a me be, Spanish minister; Count Corti, Ital ian ambassador; Baron Brin, French legation; Baron Offenburg and Count Xreutz, Russian embassy; Henry Howard, English embassy; Count de Gacay, French legation; Maurice Delfosse, Belgian embassador; M. Grip, Swe dish embassy, and the Hoc. LaPoer Trench, Euglis embassy. S. S. W T hite, of this city, is well represented at Vienna. His exhibition, a correspondent says, " is the best and completest of the kind that I have ever seen. It comprises not mere ly artificial teeth and'sets of teeth, but dental chairs, foil, and all the appliances of the pro fession. Every variety of dental tool is rep resented in the latest and most improved pat tern. I never pass by the stand without a cold shudder of admiration for the sufferings of humanity suggested, and the ingenuity ta ken in alleviating them.” Messrs. Gilbert, McKeever, and Hamilton, of the New York Sun, Telegram, and Herald, respectively, were in the city yesterday on a flying trip. Messrs. Gilbert and McKeever are old Philadelphians, tbe first named hav ing once held a position on the Press, and the second being one of the bright coterie that made the unfortunate Morning Po3t such a star of journalism during its brief exis tence. Mr. Hamilton is a young writer ol much talent. In their particular field, as bright, rollicking correspondents and wri ters, Messrs. Gilbert and McKeever are unex celled. A.
