It does look as if Providence, where she had blessed a people with a propigal soil and a climate that nourishes kindly all the fruits and flowers known to man, at the same time curses them with a wastefulness of spirit and extravagance of conduct that koeps their noses to the grindstone when they ini^ht roll in luxury. On the other h ind, wbero she plants a people on sterile soil, beneath inau spicious skies, you may be sure that frugality of living, and energy of culture, will com pensato tor tho needs of n-tture, and give them comfort, wealth and power. No better instanco of this is needed than a reference to tho industries of our own S r ate.

OCR AI'PROUHIXG STATE FAIR. Let iLc people of Georgia remember that he nest annual Fair of the Georgia State Ag- : I■:allured Society will begin in Macon on Iljnday, the 27th of this month. Tho time Ie£3 than two wcek3 off. The Georgia Si ite /airs have always been regarded as the most important gatherings of tho people of the .State which can be held. This Fair promises to r necl all previous ones in the extent and variety f the products to be exhibited, and in the com- pletenc-s cf the arrangements at the Fair Grcands. Mayor Huff has devotod a large hare cl’ his time and attention to make it the ~rande c< Exhibition ever held in Georgia or the Son !i. bnj' good trees, blooded stock and ckoic chickens. It co.sts a little more at fir^t, but pays ia the long run. When our people economize in their mode of living, utilize all their space, cultivate thoroughly rather than widely, and use only the best breeds of stock, and plant only the best kinds of fruits and vegetables, we’ll cot neb ns sure as tho sun rises.

This applause, which had continued scveial minutes, was eventually stopped by the appearance of tho presiding officer in front of the platform. He said: “ ‘I should wish to know if the audience want tho prolongation of this discussion. It you do so, it will leave deep and abiding wounds. I felt there was not held in his ad dress a full recognition tions under which have, therefore, contented myself by notifying him that hi* time had expired.

[Applause.] I shall not go on. I was discussing a principle. The subject was assigned to me by Dr. Schaff, the subject of tho ‘•Union of Church and State," and I have been most careful, as I thought, to confine my self simply to the discussion of the principle.
