Telegraph & Messenger. Thursday morning, august 3. mi. TIIE GEORGIA PRESS. Wo clip the following from th« Colnmbns San of Friday: Lea via or Auhenck —Dr. Skinner, of tho Baptist Church, left yesterday for Now York, where tap wifo now ia. Ue has boon granted leave ofabsonce by bin church, and expects to be gone about four week*. Rev. J. H. Nall, tho able and faithful pastor of tho Presbyterian Cbnrcti, has boen tendered a month's leave of absence, which bo has ac- oeptod. lie ia one of the most indefatigable workers we have ever had in Columbus. He has remained bravely at his post in snmmer and winter, and the chnrch under bis ministrations has largely increased, and paid much of the debt incurred in tho erection of her splendid edifice. Wo r.rn glad to know his church has been so thoughtful os to extend him a icavo of absence, as he must require rest from bis ardn oua work. Comxekcxd Woek with 300 Hums.—Work commenced on tho North and South Road yes terday morning, this aide of Paco’s, on tho Hamilton road, aomo four miles from Colnmbns. Three hundred bands aro now engagod. Before many days the number will bo increased to 1200. Operations are being pushed northward. Tho right of way to LaGrange, with tho exception of that portion through the suburbs of Colum bus, has been granted. This will ho obtained in lees than twenty days, when the forces will be bronght in this direction. Grant & Co. and Lane Jk Co., the contractors, mean to push the road along in rapidity. Tho routo is now loca ted for ten miles. Tax Americas Republican says efforts aro bo- ing made by Congressman Whitely, to havo a tri-weekly mail established botwoen Amoricns and Baena Vista, with strong probabilities of success. Tux Lawrencovillo Atlas reports that a so- voro hail Rtorm passed through Gwinnett connty on the 17th, doing considerable damage to corn and cotton. Tho hail was as largo as partridge eggs. Thx Constitution chronicles tho arrival of Col. M. M. Tidwell, in Atlanta, from Fayette county. It Rays tho Colonelis enthusiastic over the prospocts of tho Columbus and Atlanta Air Line Railroad. Ar.iuNr and Columbus Kailkoad.—Mayor Cleghora has called a meeting of citizens, to be hold in the eonnoil chamber Saturday night, in the interest of the Albany and Columbus Rail road. It 1b hoped overy ono will nttend, ns the matter is ono of vital importance to our inter- rarest*. Tho people around Antioch have raised $40,000 in aid of a rnilroad, and we believe they would rather have the one proposed between Albany and Colnmbns than nny other. Bad Chop Retorts —The breezes wafted yes terday were liko tho breath of a sirocco. Dnat was intolerablo. Tho reports como that cotton is terribly needing rain. Tho plant ia so small that it cannot support tho fruit that it produces, nnd tho hot weather is retnrding growth and drying up tho forms and tender bolls. The prospect was never worse than at tbo present time. Those reports, perfectly reliable, come from the best as woll as tho poorest lands. Com is also mnch affected. Increase i.v Real Estate.—Ono of tho larg est roal estate dealers in the city told us yesler- dny that in Colnmbns property cannot be bought for last year’s prices with 13 per cent, added. Real ostate is in demand, and there are more honses for residence being erected than for yours, This baa been caused by tho railroad excitement. The prospocts of our city are daily becoming brightor. The editor of tho Early Connty Nows, who recently rondo a trip into Calhoun connty, re ports nearly all tho crops bo saw on the route, comparatively poor and backward, caused by Iieing poorly workod in consequence of the ex- oessiva rains this snmmer and spring. The Tolbotton American says Rev. H. M. Tumor, tho negro preaohor and politician from Macon, visited tho negro camp mooting near that place last wook, took np a collection, and carried off abont $100. Frotty good trip. Smart fellow that H. M. T. The Lumpkin Telegraph reports mat appear- ing pretty generally in the cotton in Stewart county. Some fields, it says, aro already badly injured. The Shropshire Heirs Case.—This case, wbloh has for somo timo boen pending in tho Superior Court of Floyd oounty, was determined on Friday last. Mr. Bowlins surrenders tho farm upon tho payment, by tho heirs, of the original purchnso monoy, with interest from date, amounting, says the Commercial, to about 980,000. Rowlins is to pay rent for the place daring tho time of his occupancy, which amount, it la Baid, will bo about balanced by allowance for improvements made by Rowlins. Showers in Brunswick.—The Appeal of Tues day says gratoful showers havo recently fallen in Brunswick. Affairs in Decatur County—Tho Bainbridge Argus of Saturday has tbo following: The Crops.—Oar fanners aro now engaged in palling nnd saving fodder, and tho weather coaid not be more favorablo for this business. Cora turns out to be mnch better than was anti cipated it few weeks ago, although this remark applies entirely to apiand. The corn and other crops, on all onr lands subject to overflows, are generally doBtroyed. Cotton is constantly improving, and the farmer's hopes aro reviving in regard to this crop; notwithstanding the qnanlilyof cotton that, without farther injury or draw back, will be realized, necessarily will fall far short of an averago yiold. Rain is greatly needed in many localities. The river is falling qnito rapidly, very mnch to tho aatisfaotion of fishermen, who aro catch ing great numbers of those flno fish for which onr river and the Bine Springs aro noted. Fkaobss and apples are selling at one dollar per bushel, nnd flue watermelons at from five to ton cents, in Bainbridge. Chickens aro rather scarce, with price rang ing from twenty to thirty-five cents. \\ e heard a gentleman from the country say la3t Tuesday, that ono of his neighbors would have a bale of new cotton ready for market in ton or twelve days. He might havo been jesting. An alligator, said to be abont fifteen feet in length, was seen between the old ferry and Bro ton’s wharf, in this oity, last Sunday. Can’ 1 Dr. J. get up a crowd and go for him. Affairs in Savannah.—Chatham connty re turns as her aggregate of taxable values $23, 380,281. Number of polls taxable 4,721. Aggregate value of city property, exclusive of that owned by rail road corporations 913,880,961 Value of merchandise 1,922)760 Value of monoy and debts 4,308,449 Value of shipping and tonnage 158,400 Value of stocks and bonds 1,082,895 Value of mining interests 4,000 Value of furniture 215,000 Value of other property ”93,055 it shall bo spent in hnilding college hon«es — If the Agricultural College should be located at Athens, new honses, at great expense, would have to be built out of the Slate 'iraa&ury. The old colleges at Athens wonld be no help, for they are already fall, and barely sufficient for the present nses of the University; and Georgia has debts enough to pay for Opera Honse and now State Honse and new Governor’s House in Atlanta. Let tho College be at Millegeville. Colled ns in Georgia —The Chronicle and Sentinel says, in IhBt ri markable conglomerate public doenrueut entitled “Report of tho Com. missioncr of Education made to the Secretary of the Interior (of what?) foi the year 1870, with accompanying papers,” Georgia is made to rank as (he fifth State of the Union as to the number of colleges. The whole number of col leges enumerated is three hundred and sixty- nine, of which Georgia claims 21. These 21 aro as follows: The University of Georgia, Emory College, Mercer University, Bowden Collegiate Institution; Oglethorpe University, Atlanta University, Wesleyan Female College, Cntbbert Female College, Southern Female College, Hamilton Female College, LaGrange Female College, Griffin Female College, Forsyth Female College, Perry Female College, Masonic Female College, Americas; Masonic Female College, Lumpkin; Madison Female College, Marietta Female College, La Vert Fe male College, Atlanta Femalo College. This is a very creditable array; bnt the most creditable appearing is the effort displayed for the educa tion of females. Bnt we venture tho assertion that the aggregate endowment funds of all those colleges does not equal the endowment fund of Harvard or Yale, orDartmonth or Princeton, or the University of New York, or of Illinois, or tho Cornell University, and others that might 1)0 named. With ns there is great effort greatly diffused; but north and east of us concentration and combination is the characteristic; and this brings success and influence. COTTON STATES Life Insurance Co.

It is the largest building of the kind over eroded in this city, having a capacity for 20,000 bales of cotton, requiring 450 squares of tin to cover it. Affairs in Baldwin.—Tho Milledgeville Re corder has the following: Tax crops are abont laid by—in the colloquial phrase of the farmers—in this county ; and we have good authority for stating that the yield this season will fail short of the average annual crop. A corn-stalk 13 feet 7 inches high, is a pro* duct of ordinary land and medinm culture in this vicinity. Rain is very much needed now. The streets are exceedingly dusty, and the crops aro burn ing up with me dronghL The Georgia Agricultural College.—A correspondent of the Federal Union says the Stato honsos in Milledgeville cost half a million dollars, as ascertained from all the records by diligent collation of Colonel L. iH. Briscoe, trader special appointment from Gov. Jenkins. If Georgia establishes an Agricultural College next fall, so as to get onr 300,000 acres of Con gress land; she has no need to build new college houses at Athens or anywhere else; the vacant public buildings (and ptiblie land*, too) at Alil- ledguvillo are all ready, and the school can open in January.

Dear Sirs : Late this fall I purchased from you one of yonr Findlay & Craig Eclipse Patent Saw Cotthn Presses, and, after a full and fair trial, do not hesitate to pronounce it the most rapid, of light est draught, most powerful—in fact, the best (without an exception) Cotton Press I ever saw. Berieea this and all other Iron Screw Presses I have over soon or used, there is just simplv no comparison. Evory planter should use your Press. JOHN L. GILBERT. P.

FINDLAY’S SON8: Gentlemen : I bought one of your Eclipse Screw Cotton Presses early the present season, and taa pressed nearly the whole of my cotton crop with it, and so far it has given entire satisfaction.

FINDLAY’S SONS: Drab Sirs : In reply to yours of yesterday, I have to say that the Eclipse Cotton Screw, purchased ot you, has performed admirably; I like it better than any screw I have ever used. Yours, very truly, G. M. STOKES. Siiico last fall, and before accepting Patent, we added improvemen's and labor-saving convenience*- rendering it PERFECT in every particular. This ecrew, or pin, has a pitch, or fall, of inches; is, at every turn of the screw, follower block descends (or ascends, as tho case may be) 6X inches. The device of the tube or nut in which the screw works, is such as to materially reduce the faction.' great in the common screw ; thereby rendering it an easy task for three hands to pack a bale of cot™ in HALF THE TIME of ANY OTHER Iron Screw Press by horse-power. (See J. L. Gilbert’s certa- cate). When desirable, an ordinary mule can be substituted for three men without change of nitore . (8crewFreeses also arranged for water and steam power).
