OCTOBER KLECTIOU AMD 1HE LESSORS THEY TRACH. The results of the October elect ions are before the people, and the lessons they teach are filled with significance. la Ohio, where it was proclaimed that the Democracy had no chance whatever, Sena lor Thurman and a few others like himself, who still held firm in the belief that the Democratic party waa sound at the core, called a convention and nominated Mr. Allen, one of the “straigUest” of straight Democrats for Governor, with a full ticket. Not a few among the Democratic papers denonneed this as snicidal. Leaders, liko Mr. Pogb, went over to the hybrid organi zation, yclept ■•Liberal,” and put np another ticket, while the Radicals had all their men in the field. It can be safely asserted that not a "'Rad ical” nor “Liberal" had the slightest idea that Allen stood the faintest chance for an election. He was to be “buried under fifty thonsand majority," and it was broadly hint- ed that the iuen who were engineering the rorRTH PAGE— Eli tor its —The lira tigers’ Cornea- lion—A Netrro Convention—The October E ections etc.—The South—Macon Department—Miscellany. to men who an most likely to benefit the public, without caring whether they are rich or poor.

They have lived and fattened upon the credulity of the public, and it is just because there is a possibility of their be- ing thrust from the treasury into which they have had their hands for years, that they are raising the bowl we hear.

The Decline in Cotton. At thirteen and a quarter cents per pound, cotton is at an absurdly low price. With the staple selling at 16} in New York, and at 18} in Liverpool, it onght to bring more than thirteen cent* in Georgia. Believing this, we do not hesitate to recommend farmers to bold their cotton until they can get fifteen cents. <>f course, where a planter’s note matures, it is his duty to sell, even at a PAcrifice. but to all who have no debts to pay we .vy, hold your cotton. While the continued locking np of greenbacks keeps the money market fearfully stringent, there is no deere -.se in the volume of currency in the countiy. Iu a short while the mass of lhe currency will again be put in circula tion, and then the demand for cotton will force the price up again. .% XKOaO CORVBliTiUX. The soul of the martial Sambo is stirred, lie says that the Governor has not given him his proportion of the qnota of arms allowed to Georgia, and he is very much aroused about it. A convention has been called by Edwin Belcher of the Central Cilv Blues, of Macon, to investigate the matter, and find out “if not, why not?” That the Governor will at once snecumb to this whirlwind of wrath which comes blaring f.in Africa sunny plains, and immediately forward to Belcher ^ery piece of ordnance, foreign or domestic. That he haa on band, we have not a doubt. If he don’t we would advise Belcher to w»k* him do it Smith is one of the easiest men to drive we ever axw, and if Belcher wants reputation now is the time to go in and win. Be firm, Edwin, be firm. Our advices from France show that the monarchists have experienced what is likely to prove a fatal cheek to their plans. The elections of last Sunday resulted in their complete defeat, the Bonapartists haring voted solidly with the Republicans. They may succeed in prolonging MacMahon’s Presidency, as we believe the Bonapartists favor prolongation, preferingto wait until the Prince Imperial has reached twentymne years of age, to attempting a restoration of the Empire with a regency. But wc believe that, while the Republic has been temporarily saved, the victory belongs to the Bonapart ists absolutely. As soon as they see that neither De Chambord nor Comte de Paris can ascend the throne, the monarchists will be compelled to look to Chiselhurst for a solution of their political difficulties, and to Napoleon IV. for the overthrow of the Re public, which they hate. iu the Hekat-d some days ago, it is already shown that responsible merchants have offered official bids, to sell a full line of Union Point, Georgia Railroad, in Greene county, is postponed until the eleventh of November next.

This is an ad vantage gained. Second. By buying through a secretary, j whose duty it is to watch things clos ly and deal sagaciously, they will, as it were, sift out the illegitimate merchants, and concentrate the trade npon those who are reliable and trusty. This is an additional advantage which of itself is sufficient to warrant the Grangers in perpetuating their organization. It is often not what a farmer legitimately spends, but what he is swindled out of, that impoverishes the farmer. The main advantages, however, to be de rived, in our opinion, is the benefit always derivable from organized co-oporation. When the farmers work together, they are poweifnl. Single-handed, they are weak. We shall ex pect to see immense improvements in stock, in implements, in farm houses, and in all the general plan of farming, spring promptly from this organization. For instance, a grange composed cf a dozen farmers, wish to improve the blood of their cattle; by compar atively small contributions from each of them, enough money is raised to purchase a pure bred fcnll of whatever stock may be desired, and the whole neighborhood is at once bene- fitted. So of a sew and expensive piece of farm machinery; where one could not buy, a dozen can. So of all sorts of implements, ex periments and progressive steps. What one couldn’t afford to venture a dozen can, and will. Another admirable feature of the organiza tion is, that it establishes iu every farming community a permanent respectable sort of farmers’ society or agricultural club, in which all kinds of discussion can be carried on, to the vantage of the public. The various ferti lizers that the several members have tried may become known from actual experience; the capacity of cotton gins and presses; the effica cy of certain plows; the fruitfulness of certain fancy seed; the best method of cultivating cer tain crops; the results ot all sorts of experi ments may be intelligently discussed in these meetings of the Granges, and the world will be much wiser thereby. What rich results of hard, common sense, and business knowledge would spring from the discussion of the vari ous details of agriculture, by ten thonsand practical farmers, talking quietly among them selves once a month in two hundred counties the year through. Then it secures to us some of the legitimate and useful results that will spring naturally and without any forcing from the great Farm- era’ movement. As long as it eschews politics, it will bc a success, and only that long ! We publish elsewhere a complete list of all tbe Granges of Georgia that will be represent- ed at Macon next week.

The physicians report an abatement of sickness in Hancock county. Mr. Thomas Jefferson Bullock, of Savan nah, died in that city on Tuesday morning last of congestion of the brain. He was a native of Savannah, was a grandson of Gov. Bulloch, of Revolutionary fame, and was about fifty-eight years of age. For many years he was the Secretary of the Board of Port Wardens, which position he occupied at the time of his death. He was noted for his genial manners and generosity, and was in the days gone by, when the “Old Rifle Club” was one of the institutions of the city, its crack shot. He was a lieutenant in tho Savannah Volunteer Guards prior to the war. Three Federal soldiers were arrested in Savannah on Tuesday morning for burglary. Mrs. 8. Benedict, wifo of Rev. Dr. Samuel Benedict, rector of St. John’s Church, died at Flat Creek on Wednesday last, and was buried irom St. George's Church, Griffin, on yesterday. Hon. Wm. M.

Sir. W. H. West of West Point, an amia ble and loyal “denier in stoves, tin-ware and house-furnishing goods,” has issued a circu lar in which he announces that he has erected “one of the mest complete and comfortable wagon yards" in the interesting town in which he lives. This announcement of itself would not call for special notice for it, but in the circular Mr. West takes particular pains to inform lhe public that this wagon yard has been opened ‘ 'under a license granted by the municipal authorities of this city, [West Point], and not objected to by the Atlanta Hexald. ” We rejoice most heartily to find Mr. West so keenly alive to the power of the Heeals. If we had objected to that license there is no telling what might have become of his wag on yard. Prudence is evidently odb of |Mr. West's characteristics. He knows that if we had objected, his wagon yard would have re mained a desert; for the good people of West Point, who do not get panio stricken, and who pay the most implicit obedience to all the mandates ot the Herald, would most as suredly have rebuked his presumption had he ventured to erect a wagon yard iu the face of our objection. The municipal authorities of West Point had onr full authority to grant the license. Modesty prevents our telling that they con sulted ns before granting it. Indeed, modes ty alone keeps ns from saying that people do nothing in West Point, or anywhere else in Georgia, without first obtaining our authority. If, however, Mr. West desires it, we will fur ther graciously assure him that he has our fall permission to keep that wagon yard, provided he keeps it clean aud orderly. Should he violate the terms of this proviso we shall be forced to order our worthy muni cipality at West Point to revoke that license. But so long os he obeys us aud observes the same respectful deference to our authority he may continue in peace to receive all the wag ons and wagoners he aan get to patronize him. and to prosper exceedingly. More of the DtaMgefac'i Cry. There are a pack of miserable minded men in every community who seem to make it their epecial business to array class against class. Just now they are endeavoring to make it appear that the mnnicipal ticket headed by Judge Collier, is the production of the Chamber of Commerce and of rich men, and that it has been nominated in the inter est of the rich against the poor. Excepting in a casual remark concerning Jndge Collier, we have not expressed any pre ference for cither of the tickets now before the people. Bat we do most energetically protest against lhe Jviie demagoguery which seeks the favor of the poor man by attacks on and innendoes against the rich, and by a des picable sycophancy and a base pandoriug to tbe worst passions and prejudices of men. In the ticket headed by Judge Collier there is nothing that can lead any man to suppose it a “ rich man's ” ticket.
