To-day being one of the legal holidays no
work will be done in our office, and therefore

Cloves n IIonhoe County.—Col. George W.
Adams brought us, yesterday, two samples of
clorer, cut from patches in the town of Forsyth.
One of the second cutting this year was three
feet nine inches and a fraction long. Another
specimen, from a third cutting, this year, was
only four inches shorter. This clover was sown
last October, v/ith a crop of barley, and is the
growth of the high upland upon which the town
of Forsyth is located. Such results are truly
winderful, but we must allow that they are, it
great part, due to the extraordinary humidity »f
the season, which has been specially favorr 1 '!®
to the grasses. lint were we to set dowD fifty
per cent, to the credit of an unusually fo/orable
season, still enough would be left to p 1<>w that
Monroe oonnty may easily have p* c h clover
fields as fov. sections of the Unit/ 1 states can
exhibit. Mr. Adams says Hint Mr. Lumpkin
will, in a few days, give his cl^® r fields a sec
ond cutting, and promise the result in
weight of dried forage to ** e acro -
Pbemiums foe Cc 101 *- — The committee
having in charge tlFP re P ftra fi on of the list of
premiums for cott n to be given by the citizens
of St. Louis at * re St. Louis Fair next October,
have oomplet <J arrangements and deter
mined upor lhe following scale of prizes : Fcr

to e*tton grown in Mississippi, Louisiana Tex-
nt Arkansas, Alabama, Georgia, Eoulh Caroli

for the best bale from I’eeler or other improved
seed, and a thousand dollars for the best bale
grown in any State, making the aggregate $10-
000 premium, the largest amount ever given
for cotton in this country. *
Me. Ami Ciitteb, of Anoka, Minn., is not
prosperous. In JH6;i his saw mill was burned,
involving a loss of $42,000. In 1864 a tornado
destroyed a two-story warehouse near the
Anoka depot, unroofed his barn and damaged
his residence. Iu 1807 his mill burned again,
involving a loss of $35,000. In 1869 his grist
mill was carried away by a tlood—a loss of
$20,000. The same year he lost $12,000 worth
of logs by flood. To crown all, his saw-mill
was struck by lightning last Friday night, and,
together with his tub and pail factory and a lot
of material was totally destroyed—another loss
of about $35,000, without any insurance.
The French Loan.—The Ilorald says the
French loan has been a success almost unpar
alleled in the history of the world. In less than
six hours the agents of the Treasury collected
four thousand five hundred millions of francs,
Paris alono subscribing two thousand five hun
dred millions. Well may the Minister of Fi
nance say: “ This state of things enables the
government to fulfill its engagements and to
hasten the deliverance of the country. We shall
not wait for the date fixed by the treaty at
Frankfort, but shall pay the indemnity in in
stallments.'’
Bismaeck on the International Society.—
A copy of a letter from Bismarck has found its
way into the State Departmental Washington,
in which he assails the organization of the In
ternational Society as dangerous to the peace of
the public welfare. He says that it has its
branches in America, and that the United States
Government has sent a member of it as consnl
to one of the German cities. He expresses the
hope that care will be taken in future not to re
peat the appointment, so far at least as the
German Empire is concerned.
The Viaduct Kailroad Company in New
York have one hundred and fifty engineers en
gaged on the snrvey. The road is to rnn about
twenty-five feet above the ground, on brick
arches, between transverse iron ribs, supported
by heavy iron lateral columns artistically de
signed. themselves supported on inverted
arches of solid masonry built into the ground.
All available spaces nnder the road will be con
verted into stores and markets.
The Ucmnlgee land North
Knilroad.
The Gwinnett Atlas seems to be in a very
dissatisfied and acrimonious humor. We are
as sincere and hearty in our support of the
Ocmnlgee and North Georgia Kailroed as he is;
bat he throws his missiles si ns, as if we were
an enemy to the enterprise. We ventured to
state from facts within cur personal knowledge,
that the Central Raiboad, so far from feeling
any hostility to that enterprise, is in favor of it
as likely to benefit her own trade; but the Atlas
forthwith pluDg^s into an Argument of a column
to prove that ihis must be untrue. We tell him
it is not mvrue, and even if it wore, that fact
would not help hie enterprise. There ie no use
in huntirg up opposition. There’s al ways enough
to forte itself on your notice, without running
afterit.
Jut after pitching into the Central Railroad
tc<l into ns, the Atlas gives onr people a taste
of its temper as follows :
We are surprised at the apparent inditferenoe
of the people of Macon to the success of this
great enterprise. Neither her capitalists, or
newspaper men, seem to care a “continental”
whether it is ever bnilt or not. If there was
one-half the energy and public spirit there that
there ie in Atlanta—orif we oould just exchange
the populations, and newspapers too, of the two
places, we would then have no doubt whatever
of the immediate construction of the Ccmulgee
and North Georgia Road. As it is, we warn
the friends of (he road, that it will be a fatal
mistake for them to remain quiet and inactive,
expecting Macon to take the initiative in the
matter.
We cannot see how this kind of talk is going
to help matters. If the Gwinnett Atlas prefers
to connect with Atlanta, he can do it simply by
building fifteen miles of railway down to Stone
Mountain and there unite with the Georgia
Road.
As for Macon—without entering into any in
vidious comparisons—she may well claim that,
whether she has or has not exhibited any energy
or public spirit in the matter of railways, the
map of Georgia at least shows her to be the
greatest railway centre in the State. But we
decline any ill-natured wrangling about the
matter. The people of Macon are very anxious
to extend their railway connections in the direc
tion of GwinDett, and will do what they can to
that end. As for Macon “capitalistswe have
few or none. But our men of trade believe that
a better communication with the rich counties
which will be traversed by this road is highly
important to the oity, and to the State.
Augusta Factory—A New Mill to be
Built.
Id the Chronicle and Sentinel, of Satnrday,
we find a report of the semi-annual meeting of
the stockholder of this flourishing corporation.
It appear- that the gross earnings and interest
for the year ending June 10th, were $190,649 53,
and gross expenses $51,108 09, leaving as net
earnings $145,504 84, from which fonr dividends
of 5 per cent, each have been paid, amounting to
$120,000, leaving $25,540 84 to go to profit and
loss account, and making $258,83617 the amount
now standing to the credit of that account. Du
ring the year, 6,851 bales of cotton, averaging
440 pounds each, at on average cost of 15.26
cents per pound were consumed, the product of
which were 10,185 bales of goods measuring
8,527,728 yards, of which 10,121 bales were sold
during the year, leaving on hand at date of
meeting 64 bales. It was resolved to build a
new mill with 15,000 additional spindles, at a
cost of $450,000. W. E. Jackson, Esq , was re
elected President, and Messrs. Edward Thomas,
Thomas G. Barrett and Joseph B. Gumming
Directors.
Tbe Cotton Figures.
The cotton figures (see first page) are inter
esting. Receipts of the ootton year np to last
Friday night 3,891,018 bales, against 2,825,
469 last year—showing an increase of 1,065,612
bales. The receipts are now coming in very
slowly—only 18,197 bales last week—showing
that the incoming crop may not, probably, ex
ceed fonr millions bales. If it averages fifteen
thousand bales a week for the remainder of the
year--say eight weeks, 120,000 bales—the footing
np would be about 4,011,000 bales. The ex
ports of cotton are wonderful—3,061,821 out of
the total of 3,891,118 bales—and yet the in
crease of stock now in Liverpool is only 158,
000 bales. The entire Liverpool stock of all
kinds of cotton, including cotton afloat, is 1,364,
012 bales, against 1,065,771 last year—showing
an increase over last year of only 295,250 bales
notwithstanding the heavy American crop and
exports. This gives a very favorable view of
the cotton situation.
The school-boys in Wisconsin are making nse
of the locusts swarming there. They fill their
pockets with these tuneful creatures, “and when
shcool exercises are well under way, at a sig
nal from the baton of their leader, tap their
pockets simultaneously, causing the insects to
join in a chorus which entirely drowns ail other
noises within a quarter of a mile, and precludes
all other business while the concert is progress
ing. _
The New York Sun borrows hope of a scrub
race in 1872, from the prospect that the dissat
isfied Democrats in the South will run a candi
date against the regular Democratic nominee.
That’s the feblest hope that mortal ever put
hook into. The third candidate business work
ed so unhappily in I860, that few in the South
will want to try it again.
Rum . A.-oci F v :e —It is supposed when the
obstructions to navigation presented by the
rooks of Hell 14 ,(0 ,ire removed, foreign trade
■will generally entrr the portof New Yorkthrough
the Sound, in ‘ ad of by way of Sandy Hook.
Already, 'u anticipation of this event, extensive
docks for foreign steamships are being construct
ed at the junction of East and Harlem Rivers.
The Tobacco Cbop, according to figures
furnished by the Louisville Democrat, amounted
last year to 273,84)0,000 pounds, valued at $32,-
206,325. Of this crop the Southern States pro-
dneed all but 61,300,000 pounds, which were
grown in New England, Middle and Western
States. [[ .

A case of sunstroke at Savannah, Satnrday
morning, came very near terminaiing fatally.
The late Wm. B Hodgson, of Savannah, who

stands poor. Corn seriously hurt. Laborers
failing under the hot sun, and some cases of
fever among them.
Down in the wire grass country they cure

Disastrous to Cotton.—We saw a letter yes
ter day from a leading broker in Montgomery.
He says in the rich black lands of Alabama rain
has fallen for ten successive days. Ten per
cent, of the cotton planted has been abandoned
to grass and weeds. The question is not how
large, but how short a crop will be made. If
tbe boll worm comes good-bye to cotton. The
letter is based upon accurate observations in
six of the richest counties in Alabama.
A policeman named Cartledge, shot and killed
a man named Hefferman, at Augusta, on Satnr
day. Hefferman was resisting arrest, and had
cut Cartledge quite seriously. The coroner's
jury found a verdict of justifiable homicide.
A man nnmed Oxford, who is charged with
t wo or three murders in various parts of the
State, was arrested in Burke county, last week,
and is now in jail at Augusta. He was in jail
at Sparta, at one time, but was released by a
band of unknown men.
The Quitman Banner relates the following:
Infants Drowning a Baby.—A horrible affair
‘occurred on a plantation six miles west of Quit-
man, on last Friday, by which n oolored infant,
eighteen months old, lost her life. The infant
aforesaid was left at the cabin in charge of an
older sister, some five years of age, whilst the
mother went to work in a neighboring field
Soon after the departure of the mother, two col
ored children, aged about six and eight years,
from another cabin on the same plantation, put
in an appearance, and desired the little nurse
to accompany them in quest of blackberries.
She told them she could not leave the baby,
but that if they (the visitors) would take her
(the baby) to the well, and drown it, she would
go with them. They instantly seized the child,
one taking hold of its head, sad the other its
feet, carried it to the well, and gleefully cast it
in. The mother soon after received lntelli-
gence of the affair. but, before she could extri
cate tbe child from the water, life was extinct.
The children were arrested, but immediately
discharged, as it was evident, from their youth
they were not legally responsible for the serions
crime committed.
Of weather and crops the Lumpkin Tele
graph, of Saturday, talks as follows :

Gen. Sherman Vindicates the South.—
A Washington dispatoh, dated Friday, Jane
80th, and found in the Nashville papers of Sat
urday, says:
At the fifty-'onrth annual commencement of
Georgetown College, yesterday, General Sher
man, in the course of a short address, said the
attempt to divide the Union in onr generation
had failed, as it wonld always fail, and he
would as soon expect the attempt to dissolve this
Union, in the future to come from the North as
the South, bnt it will never come, for now we
are joined together stronger than hy the bands
of steel.
What will the trooly loyl say to this audacious
opinion? This language can bear bat one in
terpretation, and that is that the speaker does
not believe any of the malicious, cock-and-bull
stories about Southern disaffection whioh fill
the Radical press. That he regards the K. K.
Committee investigation at Washington as only
a dirty device of dirtier political hammers to : given np, is very grassy and badly injured,
make partisan capital, and that he has no fears half crop of ootton is now a high estimate for
*- county. IThe oorn is better, generally good
rapidly growing,
There is nobody on earth to compare with
negroes and Radicals for magnificent appropri
ations of public money. One branch of the
Territorial Council of the District of Columbia,
has already avpropriated fear million dollars to
city improvements.
The French Elections sustain the govern
ment and have gone moderately Republican.
Gambetta is the only Radical elected in Paris.
The result has strengthened the French finanoes
materially. Rochefort is pronounced insane,
which will save his head.
The future Emperor and Empress of Germa
ny, that U to say Frederick William and his
wife, daughter of Victoria of England, are to
vsit Great Britain during the coming autumn
and make a long sojourn.
The French population of Strasbourg don’t
like the Germans, and fights and rows are fre
quent, in which the women join and shower
down boiling water copiously.
Pardon of Bowen.—The President has par
doned Bowen, convicted of bigamy.
that the people of the South, though ruled and
robbed, most shamefully, by carpet-baggers,
ignomat, venal, malicious blacks, and still
meaner, more corrupt and vicions scalawags
meditate, or will attempt another revolution.
This is what his speech means, and the South
thanks him for his vindication of her present
attilude and intentions.
Misquoted.—The telegraphio report dam
ages the point of a remark made by Gen. Al-
pheus Baker, of Enfanla, Ala., in his address de
livered at the University of Georgia, on the 28th
nit. It makes him say : “ The Southern youth
should obey the laws,- however objectionable
they may be. They were, in some respect, like
sausages—very good in their way, bat would be
disagreeable in the mouths of their manufac
turers.”
This, however, is what the General really
said: He had emphatically counselled the
Southern youth to obedienoe of the laws; “bnt,”
said he, “gentlemen, I do not know that, with
any view to the stimulation in your ingenuous
hearts, of a patriotic admiration for them, it be
at all wise in me to advise you to a very curious
inquiry into the recent process of their manu
facture ; for, in one respect, I am afraid some
of the most important of them, lately, are a lit
tle like the sausages we purchase—the least you
know of how they were made the better you will
like them. ” __
Wealth of New York.—The official state
ment of the assessed valuation of city property
for 1871 shows a net increase of real and per
sonal property over that of 1870, of $28,729,-
249.
This is the way a Chicago paper announces
a Fonrth-of-July oration : “E. B. Sherman will
take the oncircumcised eagle by the tail, at Ke-
wannoe, on the Fourth, and smite him thus.”

Messrs. Rioe keep pace with the times, and

The editor of the Dahlonegm Signal has
turned his quill into a miner's pick, and is now
going for gold- He turned up, last Saturday,
with 83 pennyweights, the result of four days'
work with three hands and a four stamp mill.
The Signal advertises one Spenoer Prervitt,
Ordinary of Fannin county, as an “infamous
scoundrel” Prervitt has been running an ac
count for printing with the Signal offioe for
about four years, and now refnses to pay. He
will advertise in future in tbe Atlanta Era, from
which we infer be is one of the trooly loil.
The Track Farms Near Charleston
The editor of the Charleston Courier has been
visiting some of the truck farms near Charles
ton, and we copy some of his observations. Of
the farm of Robert Disher he says;
An area of ten acres was planted, and the
yield has been 1,050 bbls. of potatoes. These
have found a lucrative market and averaged five
dollars per barrel, thus paying $5,250 for the
area, or over five hundred dollars per acre. In
addition to this it must be borne in mind that
the potato crop requires but six months of the
year for maturity, and the land will yield in
vegetables of other kinds, an inoome of about
$150 per acre.
On John Kennedy's farm thirty acres of po
tatoes were planted, with a yield of 2,100 bar-
rels. These netted $5 per barrel, or $10,500
for the thirty acres. This, also, in addition to
the vegetable crop, will yieild $150 per aore.
On the farms of Messrs. Henry Williams and
P. Huffman the yield was equally as large. On
the former place 20 acres yielded 1,140 barrels,
and on the latter 2J acres yielded 100 barrels.
Another gentleman, who was before the war
a prominent cotton planter, bnt who is now ec
gaged in raising vegetables, realized over $15,
000 from his potato crop.
Altogether, from a careful review of these
facts, and other information, the value of the
potato crop of the present season may be set
down st from $175,000 to $200,000.
The editor says that part of these farms were
fertilized with stable manure, and part with
manipulated phosphates. Results prove that
the phosphates are as good as stable manure.
