MACON, AUGUST 2, 1870.
An important Meeting on the 16th oi
1 August.
A call is now being circulated and signed for
a convention of representatives of the people,
irrespective of party, to assemble at Atlanta on
the ICtb of August next, to take action in re
gard to the election nest fall. As soon as it is
made out we will insert it in the Constitution.
The State Agricultural Convention will meet on
tho day proposed. Tlje Democratic State Con
vontion meets on tho day succeeding. The op
portunity afforded by the meeting of represen
tative men from all parts of tho State to confer
together on the best means of liberating the
State from tho corrupt faction who seek to pro
long their power will be embraced by all parties
who are in favor of peace and of upholding the
constitution and laws.—Atlanta, Constitution.
The Foreign News
To-day is important. It gives Bismark’s ex
planation of tho proposed secret treaty, which
places France in an attitude peculiarly odious
to England and tho great continental powers.
Parliament, however, supports the Ministry in
a strong declaration of neutrality. The news
also contains Napoleon’s proclamation on plac
ing himself at the head of the army. In that
proclamation be does not delude hi3 army with
the idea of a short or easy war. He admits that
the struggle may be long and arduous. Wp see
no hope of a better result, and there be will mo
mentous changes before we see peace in Eu
rope again.
University of Louisiana.
Medical Detaetxient. — Tho 23d annual
course of Instruction at this Institution is ad
vertised in onr columns to day. No Medical
College in the United States offers greater facil
ities to students, either in the high character
and attainments of the Faculty, or in tho oppor-
tnnities afforded to students to familiarize them
selves with the treatment of all varieties of dis
ease and of surgical operations, in the extensive
hospital practice connected with the college.

Albany, Americas, Athens, Atlanta, Augusta,
Bainbridge, Brunswick, Cartersville, Columbus,
Griffin, Macon, Marietta,. Milledgeville, Borne,
Savannah.
In the following Post Offices tho money order
business will be commenced on Monday, the
1st day of August, 1870: Cuthbeit, Dalton,
Lexington, Madison and Ringgold.
Napoleon’s Blttndees. TjjTho English and
American papers are pointing out Napoleon’s
blunders to him, and it hurts us to think they
are so late about it. “I meant to have told you
of that ditch,” said a negligent guide to a friend
floundering in the mud below. “Never mind,”
said the friend, “I know all about it now.”
And so will Napoleon say to these gentlemen of
the press who point out bis blunders after they
are committed. If the New York and London
Press could move to France, affairs would be
great and safe. But, then, what would become
of Bismarck? __
Beunswicx and Albany Kailboad.—The Al
bany News learns from Col. Schlatter that the
Brunswick and Albany Bailroad Company have
obtained the services of a competent agent to
negotiate for a large number of Chinese and
other laborers from Cuba, which, with the
present strong force, they hope to reach Albany
in January next. The road is now completed
and in running order for nearly ninety miles
from Brunswick. The only impediment that
will defeat this object will be tho failure to sup
ply the necessary amount of labor, which the
News now things will soon be obtained.
A Chinese Was.—War is likely to break out
in another quarter. British gunboats have sailed
for Tien-Tsin, tho port of Pekin, to demand sat
isfaction for tho recent outrages on the for
eigners. The foreign residents at Shanghai
have been called upon to volunteer for an expe
dition which has the same destination, and the
French will send a naval and military force
from Saigon. At Bombay, war between the
outside barbarians and the Celestial Kingdom
is regarded as inevitable.
Disgusting.— Of all the disgusting Jenckins-
isms which have disgraced the American press,
the account of the Butler-Ames wedding is cer
tainly the worst; and yet it seems impossible
that the penny-a-liners who did up tho affair
could have invaded the privacy of the bridal
chamber, ransacked thebureau drawers, trunks,
etc., and given the public a minute account of
the various gifts, down to each individual
nightgown and undershirt—unless they had
been invited and requested to do so. That re
mark is well made by the New York Commer
cial Advertiser.
Exaggeration.-—We notice, with pleasure,
how in speaking of the warm weather—not, we
think, warmer in the Southern States than
usual at this season of the year—and perhaps
on an average a little below our ordinary sum
mer temperature—the Southern prints confine
themselves strictly to facts. Thus the spright
ly local of the Montgomery Advertiser ob
serves :
Boiling, bubbling, blistering, are weak ad
jectives when used to denote how hot it was
yesterday. The perspiration that rolled from
our sweltering populace would have turned a
mill.
The Cabteesville Standabd is the name of
a new, largo and handsome weekly, the first
number of which has just been received. It is
published by Messrs. Wilde & Woods—the for
mer a gentleman for a long time superintendent
of the press department of this office. We wish
it much success.
Bally fob Fbance.—The French residents of
New York offsett the grand demonstration for
Prussia, by holding a grand meeting for France
at Delmonico’s last Monday. If a battle could
be won by speeches, resolutions and cheers,
which would whip ?
The Bov. Dr. Newman, pastor of the Metro
politan Church of Washington,- and spiritual
adviser at the Court of Gen. Grant, left Wash
ington last Monday for Salt Lake, to meet Elder
Pratt in a discussion of Polygamy before the
Mormon Church, in the Tabernacle. The
prophet Young guarantees his safety from the
men, bnt the women may “seal him with the
ten oommandments.” - v>
Chinese fob the Brunswick and Albany
Boad.—Tho Enfanla News says that, “as an ex
periment, a contract has been made with, an
agent who visited Brunswick, for about 200 hun
dred Chinese, from Cuba, and if they give sat
isfaction it is the intention to soenro a much
Jkafgcr number—say 2,000
V —
When Will Georgia be Bleb.
Parties who have consulted the Sibyl on this
point report the answer to be “when coin is
seventy-five cents a bushel and no demand.”
State Tax.—The Governor in a proclamation
orders that fonr-tenths of one per-cent be as
sessed and collected upon the amount of the
value of property returned by eaoh tax-payer,
subject to taxation ad valorem.
A newly discovered Chinese pcem, Li Sao,
written 300 years before Christ, is raid to prove
that the existence of America was known to the
Chinese at that time.
The Coart at Long Branch.
We get tho minutest particulars about the
court at Long Branch, through the regular press
chronicles furnished by Mr. Jenkins. Unless
man wero to stand up a brick or shingle edge,
ways, there’s nothing for shade at Long Branch
excep the houses. There used to be a clump of
nettles and a holly bock, but they are dead.
The people call the Boyal Palace there the
“Mad House,” and the President sits in the hall
of that house the livelong day, watching the
sand crawl and the fiddlers shrink in the livid
heat crinkling np from the bright snnshine on
the sea. Occasionally he remarks that it
“warm.” Sometimes he has beenknown to say
it is “very warm,” and on rare occasions he
goe3 so far as to say it is “excessively warm.”
He sits in a rocking chair—cane seat—mid
way between the front and the back door, so
that look front or rear he has occasion to re-
poat the remark. The servant brings him
whiskey julep which he takes as a necessary
preparation for a regalia. He wears a long
linen coat, a black vest a pair of dark panta
loons. He looks as if he were meditating, and
he is, for he looks np directly and remarks “it
rm.” Mrs. Grant, who is np stairs snooz
ing, smiles for a moment and calls to her hus
band through the open door, “My dear, don’t
you find it warm ?” The President remarks in
reply that “it is warm." Col. Dent has fallen
asleep in his chair on the rear piazza, and nods
so violently that he gets a sudden creak in the
neck; whereupon he rouses—looks into the hall
and says “General, don’t yon find it warm?'
Tho General thereupon remarks that he finds it
“very warm,” and perhaps a whisky julep and
a cigar might not be amiss.
Jimfisk comes. He has buff reins and gold
bits with a pair of horses and a carriage attach
ed to them, and suggests a drive. The President
looks at him with a countenance full of solemn
import and remarks “too warm.” At five min
utes and twenty-eight seconds past fonr o’clock,
dinner is announced, whereupon the President
remarks that it is “too warm to eat.” But the
seductions of the cook, for a time, successfully
combat the fascinations of the weather. The
President eats—resumes his chair—sees the sun
go down in solemn silence, and remarks to Col.
Dent, as the last ray disappears behind the hor
izon—“don't yon find it uncommonly warm ?'
«TIie Memories of Fifty Years.”
Mr. Barko has placed upon our table a book
which will attract no ordinary interest in Geor
gia, and, indeed, throughout the Sonth and a
large portion of the conntry. It is entitled,
The Memories of Fifty Years: containing brief
biographical notices of distinguished Ameri
cans, and anecdotes of remarkable men; in-
interspersed with scenes and incidents oc
curring during a long life of observation
chiefly spent in the Southwest. By W. H.
Sparks.
It is an octavo volume of 500 pages, dedi
cated to our fellow-citizens and the author’s
near relatives, O. G. Sparks and Col. Thomas
Hardeman, and is just such a series of personal
incidents, anecdotes and observations connected
with the leading men and historical events in
Georgia, Mississippi, Louisana and the conntry
at large, as every one who has been astonished
at the wonderful memory and prodigious power
of the author as a raconteur would expect from
his pen. Its contents embrace almost every
thing and every man who has been talked
about in these regions or in the country for
than a generation. To specify them
would be impossible. The author, in his pref
ace, explains the origin of this publication:
“In the some week, and within three days of
the same date. I received from three judges of
the Supreme Court, of three States, the request
that I would record my remembrances of the
men and things I had known for fifty years.
The gentlemen making this request were Joseph
Hoary Lumpkin, of Georgia; William L. Shar
key, of Mississippi; and James G. Taliaferro,
of Louisiana.”
Tho work is published by Claxton, Reinsert &
Haffelfinger, of Philadelphia, and J. W. Burke
& Co., of Macon. It may be had at all the
bookstores.
Lemonade and Fevebs.—A co temporary says
that in most cases of fevers we have no donbt
that the attack might have been prevented and
the patient well in a few days without a particle
of medicine, by rest, partial fasting and free
use of lemons and lemonade. The virtue of
this article in billions attacks and incipient fe
vers has been tested with the best results, and
we recommend its use during the heated, term
as a preventive of these diseases.
A friend hands us tho foregoing and says
he knows it to be a very valuable suggestion.
A buy Beeb.—As everything connected with
the present France-Prussian contest is of inter
est, we publish the following “recipe” for mak
ing French Army Beer, which may be worth
preservation:
A correspondent translates the following
recipe of the beer that has been introduced into
the French army upon the recommendation of
the Medical Board. It is described as a very
wholesome beverage of pleasant and refreshing
taste, and promoting digestion in a remarkable
degree. It may prove an agreeable beverage,
both in and outside of tbe army:
Water. 100 litres, about 100 quarts.
Molasses 500 gammes, about 1 pound.
Hops 100 grammes, about 3 ozs.
Marshmallow root.. 50 grammes, about 1£ “
Yeast 50 grammes, about “
The Heat in the Nobthebn Cities.—On
Monday last there were, in New York city, twen
ty-seven deaths from heat and thirty-nine pros
trations, a good many of which are reported of
doubtful issue. The highest achievement of tto
mercury was 96J. Of the general mortality the
World remarks:
The deaths of yesterday were 103; of the
day pievious, 125; and of the week ending
Saturday last, 1,018. Dr. Bussell, chief of the
Bureau of Vital Statistics, thinks that the death
rate this year is very great. In conversing with
a reporter yesterday he stated, in reference to
the deaths of last week being 1,048, that daring
the correspondent week in 1866, when the
cholera was raging through the city, the death
record was not much greater, being 1,362. Dr.
Bussell attributes the extraordinary death rate
not so much to the high temperature as to the
continuance for so long a period of the hot
weather. At Foukeepsie the mercury indicated
98; Lewiston, Maine, 97; New Haven, 90;
Washington, 95 and among the deathB from the
head was that of Dr. Munroe, Professor of Lan
guages at Georgetown College.
Ex-Pbisident Johnson.—At a large and pop
ular demonstration at Bogersville, in Tennes
see, Ex-President Johnson recently made a
speech on the infamies of the Eadical party, re
ported to be one of unusual power. 8ome
slight reference both to tho'speech and the
character of the meeting is made by the Nash
ville Union and American. Among'other things
Mr. Johnson said:
Eflorts were being made in this State to or
ganize a third party, and that this movement
was understood and appreciated at Washington,
where it was known the third party must even
tually go with the Badieals. He said we must
stand by onr Democratic friends in the North,
who aro in line of battle aiidfighttog in the glori
ous cause of Constitutional Government-; that
we must frown down any attempt to create this
third party, and rally in the common cause with
our brethren elsewhere.
He concluded in saying we must act together
and all would yet be well.
With the aid of the telegraph wires we somt-
timea oome “mighty near” the names of those
little German towns. We have settled the place
of the first skirmish—it was Carling in the
original dispatch. Then it figured a number of
days as Korlin, but it is now settled as Kakling.
The Georgia Press*
Sudden Death.—The Savannah Bepublican
of Thursday says:
Yesterday morning, about half past ten
o’clock, the mercantile portion of our city was
startled by tho sad intelligence of the sudden
death of Mr. Langdon Bowie, Sr., agent of the
Equitable Life Insurance Company of New
York, who fell dead in his office on Bay street
from disease of tho heart Mr. Bowie had
complained of feeling unwell in the morning
before going to Ins office, and he had hardly en
tered upon the duties of the day before he was
suddenly called from this life.
At the Thunderbolt regatta, Wednesday af
ternoon, the race wa3 won by the “Duchess
Josie Ann," owned by Capt. Joseph Manigault
The San Salvador reached her wharf from
New York Wednesday morning, at half past ten
o’clock. She brought thirty-one cabin and ten
steerage passengers.
Ieon fob the Geoegia Eaileoad.—On last
Tuesday, says the Chronicle and Sentinel, thero
arrived in Savannah, by steamship from the
North, seven hundred tons of iron rails, con
signed to the Georgia Bailroad Company. On
yesterday wo were informed by S. K. Johnson,
Esq., the efficient and justly popular Superin
tendent of the Company, that this iron will be
used on that portion of tho road between Dear.
ing and Camok. The distance from Dearing to
Camakis seventeen or eighteen miles, and it is
tho intention of Superintendent Johnson to
have tbe entire line between these two places
relaid with new iron. Between this city and
Dearing the road is in very good order. Uamak
is the point where the Macon and Augusta Bail
road intersects the Georgia Boad, and when
this road is re-laid with new iron from Deartof;
to Camak, and the Macon line opened, we wil.
have a road first-class in every respect connect
ing Maoon with Augusta. There seems to ha
no donbt that tho Macon and Augusta Bailroad
will bo opened for travel by the 1st of Ooto-
her—within a little more than sixty days from
date.
Speakingof the approachingDemooratio State
Convention the Constitutionalist says “such a
convention presided over by the veteran cham
pion of Democracy, Hon. H. V. Johnson, will
do much to settle the people in the right line of
policy guided by principle.
A Geoegia Senatob and his Check.—The
Columbus Sou says that a baggage master was
delivering baggage a day or two ago, at tbe
Southwestern depot, he called several times at
the top of his strong voice for “Check 189.”
No answer being made, the driver of the bag
gage wagon, Troup, called out to a descendant
of Ham thus: “You black ‘rangotang,’ fetoh
dat check to dis gernman; I know you’sgot it I”
The astonished “nig,” who was one of the Sen
ators of our noble but down-trodden State, after
some dispute, was forced to show his hand, and
as Troup said, had tho check called for. He
was rebuked by his colored friend, who said he
"wasn’t ’stonished atnuffina nigger would do
dat could be dragged into do capitol, to show
how little sense a ‘big fool’ had.” Troup ad
vised him to have his person and carpet-bag ex
pressed through in care of Bullock, and insure
ri3 life, as the fool-killer was on the train, and
would commence on him without delay. Pretty
Senator, that.
Disappointed.—The Sun says “public expec
tation on this side of the water has been wearied
and disappointed at the delay on the other side.
It was fully expected that by this time the
Chassepot rifle and the needle gun would have
joined issue, and that one sanguinary battle at
least would have been fought between the
French and Prussians.” Well, friend Sun, if
they will let each other alone for a hundred
years, we will promise patience on that score in
this world and the next. Such tidings as we are
going to get we shall regret mnch to hear.
The Columbus Enquirer, of Thursday, says:
Yesterday was a scorcher. Crops between
here and West Point are suffering for rain.
Between West Point and Atlanta and all along
up the State road the com crop is excellent.
Items fbom Talbot County.—Fromthatfaith-
fnl and entertaining chronicler of events in the
pleasant and pastoral regions of Talbot, tho
Talbotton Standard, we take the following:
A Tbiple Bloom.—Mr. Henry Biyan, near
Talbotton, has presented us one of the rarest
curiosities wo ever beheld—we allude to three
cotton blooms on a single stem. If Mr. B. suc
ceeds in developing a healthy stalk and seed of
this variety, tho cotton crop of 3,000,000 bales
may be increased to as many more.
Eunaway Scbape.—On last Sabbath morning,
at the hotel, the marriage of Mr. Connell to
Miss Smith took place, which created consider
able cariosity in Talbotton. The parties were
in transitu, all of this county, and destination
unknown. Wo hope they will never grow hun
gry, and the honeymooD, which suddenly rose
upon them, will never go down.
The negro barbecue at the plantations of
Stephen Howell and J. B. Gorman, last Satur
day, was attended by nearly three hundred
colored individuals, who observed good order
and went heartily into tho convivialities of the
oocasion.
The negro camp meeting is about to convene.
Great preparations are being made.
Thomas County.—The Thomasville Southern
Enterprise of Wednesday calls a meeting of the
Democratic voters on the 6th of Augnst, to ap
point delegates to the Convention in Atlanta on
the 17th.
The Enterprise saya the Executive Committee
of the Thomas County Fair have purchased an
eligible site of sixteen acres, beautifully shaded,
and that they will be immediately prepared and
provided with suitable buildings, nnder the di
rection of Capt. Grant, Chief engineer of the
Cutbbert and Camilla Bailroad.
The same paper says that the contracts for
clearing, grading, and cross ties for tho Cuth-
bert and Camilla Bailroad were awarded on
Thursday last to Messrs. Lyon, McClendon
Co.
Albany Items.—We glean the following from
the Albany News of the 29th inst: Weather
warm and dry ; thermometer 90 at 2 o’clock on
Wednesday; later in the evening a sudden and
severe storm of rain, hail, wind, thunder and
lightning visited Albnny, causing much damage
to the city in. the destruction of shade trees,
nnrooiiiog houses, blowing down awnings, eto.
» The Agency.
In the Agency the “Great Warhoo” intro
duced a resolution reporting Senator Nannally
to Massa Terry, bnt it was decided out of order.
Some little flourish followed on Campbell’s res-
olution to hold over, which was then laid aside,
and the report and resolution to seize the school
fond for the benefit of the Agenoy were taken
np and adopted—yeas 29; nays 8. The Senate
hen resumed the matter of holding over, and
held on to it until dinner time. The Honse
talked all day upon the Governor’s message in
reference to the penitentiary.
In its evening session the Senate read a sec
ond rano and referred something less than
hundred bills. The following were among them:

WARLIKE ATTITUDE OF ENGLAND
Tbe Proiwsed Treaty between France ana
Prussia—Profound Impression Produced
on English Opinion by its Publication—
Tbe Daily Nows on tbe Crisis—England’s
Neutrality Difficult if not impoMime.
By telegraph to the Tribune.
London, July 26—1 a. m.
English feeling has been profoundly moved
by the publication this morning in the Times
of the proposed treaty between France and
Prussia. The grave urgency with which Dis
raeli in the House this attemoon questioned the
government justly refleoted the general emo
tion. Conversation among the members turned
on no other topic. Mr. Gladstone’s reply, while
declining absolutely to commit the government
to any opinion or declaration whatever, betrayed
in manner more than in words an unmistakable
apprehension that the document might prove
authentic. His answer was given with pale face
and hesitating lips. When he sat down tho
House felt that England’s relation with the con
tinental trouble had grown suddenly close if
not alarming. To tho mention of Belgium the
House responded with an unwonted thrill of
sympathy, and a clear recognition of England’s
obligations to proteot her.
It is understood that immediate communica
tions were made by tho government to its agents
at Berlin and Paris, and that the French Gov
ernment will have an instant opportunity to
admit or deny its responsibility for the alleged
treaty. It is believed here that if genuine, its
proposals are French while its rejection is due
to Prussia.
Tne copy of the Times is thought to have
been supplied from Berlin. It is certain that
the Times would not have published it unless on
evidence deemed conclusive. It was said pri
vately this afternoon in the House that the copy
was originally offered to Earl Granvil’e, but
that he refused it, the English Government pre
ferring its suppression. There is supposed to
be an allusion to the same subject in Mr. Card
well's answer to a question in the House about
breech-loaders, saying that great ^importance
was attached to the best guns being immediately
supplied to all the troops. .. .
The Daity News, which lias brilliantly led the
opinion of England on war questions, will say
in the morning: “It is impossible not to admit
that the gravity of the present European crisis
ha3 for neutral nations been immensely in
creased by thepnblicationof theproposed treaty,

Fatal Distubbance.—On Monday evening
last, wnile a party from the country were re
turning to their homes, after transacting their
bnsiness in the city, they halted their teams
abont one mile from thb river,! at s well on the
roadside, for the .purpose of getting water.. A
colored woman at tbe time was at the well
drawing water, and apparently.consuming time,
when one of the party requested her to hurry,
as they were thirsty and anxious to proceed on
their way. This seemed to arouse the . ire of
r the woman, and with abusive language threw,
bucket of water on him. This act caused him
slap her over, and heat her to his satisfac
tion, but not to seriously.injure her. Tbe party
then proceeded on their way, and were soon
overtaken by a gang of negroes, armed with
guns, who threatened to tihoof thermit they did
not halt. The whites halted, and while giving
an explanation of' tho affair, a difficulty arose
between them, resulting in a route of the ne
groes, and the shooting of 1 one of their number, ,
who died the next day. . Jit* tUwh oT 1.

say that the two governments concerned will be
compelled to speak. Supposing that it was
really proposed by France to Prussia, our impe
rial friend and ally is presented in an aspect not'
calculated to win back English sympathy with
his course. Napoleon was ready-not. only to
throw over our alliance for a better one, bnt to
break it at any moment by a military advance
into Belgium, not only in direot infraction'of
