Arraias is Auousxa—From the Chronicle and
Srotinel of Thursday wo take the following:
Krrunwo Damaow.—Wo loam that work is
ramdlv progressing upon the dams of the Lang-
1,.,. f.dory and the Bath Paper Mills. The in-
di'eations now are that both dtms wiU soon bo
rewired and work recommenced in both of tho
mmnfsctories.. We leam that the creek leading
from the pond at • Langley to tho pond at the
pnix r wills is boing straightened. A canal is
Iming made, which will out off a heavy oorvein
the stream. ...
Granite from tbe Canal.—A few days ago
W( , announoed tbe disoovery of a fino quarry of
rrauito a short distance above the locks of the
Augusta Canal. We bnve sinco learned that a
imarry was operated in that vicinity twenty
years ago, and a good deal of the same brought
is and used in this city. Tbe “ Granite Mills,”
owed by Messrs. Geo. T. Jackson k Co , are
bmlt of stono Trorn the quarry on btallings
Island. Every judge says that granite of good
quality can easily l>e procured a short distance
above thu locks. We earnestly hope that meas-
nres will bo taken to utilize this valuable stono.
Ut it at least be used for pavements in tho city.
A Dnr Goods Palace.—Wo see from the
fhrciDicle that James A. Gray & Co. aro build
ing a dry goods palaco in that city.

Tavlob County.—The Mirror annonnees the
arrival at Ueynolds of additional machinery for
the - Potter Manufactory, near that place, con
sisting of water wheels, looms, spindles, etc.
It say* tbo establishment will soon be in a flour
ishing condition.
We clip the following from the Columbus
Sun, of Thursday:
Stum Cotton Mills Machineby Sold —On
Tuesday tho machinery of the Steam Cotton
Mills, on Oglethorpe street, was sold by order
of tbe United States Marshal, in front of the
ConrtJionse. Dr. N. J. Bnssey, of the Eagle
tad Pixnoix Manufactory, bid it off at $12,100
far a backer. The machinery is now, and cost,
including freight and nharges of potting up,
$22,000. The house and fixtures, which were
'iot sold, oost $16,000 more. The mill has beon
ereoted several yosrs. but has ran only six
months, and that in 186'.'. The best of thread,
yarn*, rope, etc., wore manufactured under tho
sapenntondenoy of Mr. D. Keith. What, will
be dune now oannot be told, and oan hardly bo
before a month has elapsed.
Toe Ciulvueate Spbinos.—Thera aro at
prevent 250 gueats on the grounds. Twenty-
eight arrived Tuesday night. Others wont up
yesterday. Tbe young people are having a
merry time in tho skating rink, and at the
nightly lulls. . -
llav Saving.—As much of tho land planted
this year, for reason of its sxces9ivo wetness
from the continnous rains, has been given up
and permitted to go to grass, particularly the
rich bottoms, it is important that the hay from
it should be saved. To mako hay valuable it
should bo cat at tho proper lime. That time is
immediately after the tassel goes out of bloom.
If delayed longer, the Reed, when the hay is
dry, will shatter out. Besides this, tho blades,
from age, become fired and lose their nutritious
substance. Another important part of tho
treatment is not to lot it lay too long in the sun,
and to be careful to shock it up in tho evening
to protect it from tho dew. If the foregoing
directions be complied with, a far superior arti
cle of hay will be secured than is ever brought
to this section from the East or West. Two
days sunning will be sufficient to put in condi
tion for stacking or housing. Tho latter will
keep it in the best condition.
A Pnrciors Stone.—Tbe Constitution relates
that a aon of E. B. Whitman, found at Stone
Mountain a few days since, a precious stono,
which, upon examination by competent judges,
turns out to be a garnet.
Mb. Fbank Jackson Killed. — Mr. Frank
Jackson, a young man some thirty-one years of
age, was found dead Tnesday at 4 p. m. near
Marsh's mills, a mile below Hatchachnbbee, on
the Mobile and Girard Railroad. He had gone
from the house only a few minutes before with
his pistol, saying ho was going to shoot a hog
that was proving very trouble by reason of tbo
frequency with which it managed to get in the
corn fleli Mr. J. sneeeoded in getting it out,
and followed it into the woods. Shortly after
several reports from a pistol was heard. No
particular attenion to this was paid at tho time,
hat Mr. J. not returning, a gentleman went in
search of him, when he was found dead, a pis
tol boll having entered his mouth, and shattered
his head.
Babbecde.—We havo only time to mention
that one is to take place on the 15th, in the in
terest of the Columbus and Albany Railroad, at
Cossets, Many of tho most distinguished gen
tlemen and a Urge delegation from Columbus
will attend. Columbus is determined to build
this road.
Fbou Chatham County.—A boat with seven
men capsised in tho Savannah River on Wed
nesday, and one of the party, a sailor from Bal
timore. was drowned.
The Republican has the following:
The Dabien Ncohoes.—Negro supremacy in
*nd about Darien has rendered the race in that
locality peculiarly audacious. Under the lead
ership of tbe black villain, Campbell, who rep
resents the District in the Stato Senate, and is
ready for any outrage against the whites, • a
large body of the colored people have taken up
the idea that their own will is the supreme law.
As all the officers of the county are negroes—
?°.d we are free to soy some of them well-mean
ing, but under bad influences—thero is no hope
for protection from that source. It is the duty
of the United States to protect its own mails at
least, and we hope tho .Postmaster at Savannah
will call upon the commandant of the post for
detachment* of troops to accompany the mail
steamers on their regular trips until tho colored
people of Darien shall have come to their senses.
It is not right that the law-abiding citizens of
the place ehonld be deprived of the mails and
facilities of travel on acconnt of negro lawless
ness in their midst.
The Albany News says that the colored con
vention of Docgherty connty, held on the 22d
ultimo, nominated all sound Democrats for
c aunty officers, and there is not a Radical in tbe
J®". What do you say to that, Mr. Greeley ?
Wag it the work of the Ku-klnx?
The Fan Gnomics.—The reporter of the
Savannah News paid a visit yesterday to the
^air Groncdv ot the ‘‘Industrial Association of
ueorgU,’’ and found that the work of erecting
the fences has been commenced, that is, labor
ers are digging the holes for the posts. The
old raco track, which had been under partial
cultivation, is being ploughed up preparatory
to placing tho course in racing condition. It
wilt require great energy, however, on the part
of tho directors, sub-committees and contract
ors to get things in a suitable condition for the
exhibition in November.
Fifty-eight negroes confined in Chatham
county jail for refusing to do road duty, made
an effort to get oat aeder a writ of habeas cor
pus, bnt Jndge Chisholm decided that the Road
Commissioners had full jurisdiction in the mat
ter.
The Advertiser has the following:
The New Mabket.—A large number of me
chanics aro bnsily at work in perfecting the
ground-work masonry for the reception of the
flooring. The roof is all completed, and is now
receiving its covering of tin.
Afeaibs in Tebeell County.—The Dawson
Journal, of Thursday, has tho following:
Cnor reports are anything but favorable, and
although tho prospect daring the entire spring,
as well as the first summer month, was as flat
tering as the farmers could havo desired, the
want of rain daring the past month has cut the
corn crop short, and it is feared a less quantity
will bo made than was last year. Cotton is also
greatly injured—first on acconnt of extreme
wet weather, and now on acconnt of extreme
dry weather. This locality was favored with a
good shower yesterday.
Two very handsome passenger cars passed
down the Southwestern Road tbo other day,
designed for the use of tho Vicksburg ami
Brunswick Road.
There is on old negro living a short distance
from town who claims to bo 108 years of- age,
and says, “by do help ob God he'll live 108
more.”
We havo heard of as many as four and five
bolls of cotton open on one stalk, but this does
not rejoice the farmers, for, say-they, the
weather is so dry and the sun so hot-as.to canao
immature bolts to open.
Chop-News.—Messrs. Sanlsbnry, Respess &
Co , in their Commercial and Agricultural
Bulletin of tbe 2d, print a great deal of crop
correspondence from neighboring counties of
Georgia—dates not given. From Dooly they
report a falling off in oolton twenty per cent.
Webster will make not more than half of what
it made last year. Jones three-fourths of a crop,
JaRper 15 per cent, less; Butts 18 per cent*
Schley probably two-thirds. Houston, the poor
est crop ever seen—don’t think there will be
half a crop. Worth two thieds of a crop. Macon
one-third less planted. Randolph from two-
thirds to three-fourths of a crop. Terrell three-
fourths. Twiggs, uotton doing very welL Mon
roe, same report. Crawford, sorry—twenty-five
per cent, less.’ Taylor, crops, poor—two-thirds
to tbree-fonrtbs of a orop. Baldwin two-thirds.
Bibb, decreaso from twenty to thirty per cent
Pulaski one-half to two-thirds.

THE JII.VEKAI.S OF UEOKtilA.
BY PJiOFESSOE COTHEE, (LATE OF OAIAFOBNIA.)
For tbo Telegraph and Meeaenger.]
Daring my 15 years’ experience as a mineral-’
ogist, in California, Australia and Venezuela, I
havo arrived at tbo conclusion that geology, in
its theory, is not always to be deponded upon.
At the famous Gonld & Curry Mill, in Nevada,
more ballion is oxtracted from the snlphurets
than from tho oro in the original process. De
composition and other chemical assistance frees
tbe precious metals and causes them to enter
into and amalgamate with tho mercury; bnt
science is combined with economy, which is
not the caso with quartz manipulation of min
erals in Georgia.
I speak from experience. Miners and quartz
amalgamators are, almost universally, under,
the impression that gold or silver must be seen
with the naked eye, or at all ovents a mioro-
s.-.ij.c, for it necessarily to exist ill mineral;
this is entirely a mistake. Five thousand dol
lars worth of metal may exist in a ton of depos
its of snlphurets and yet not a particle of the
precious metal be visible until after the calcin
ation of the sulphides. Guido Kustel, in his
oelebrated treatise on gold and silver amalga
mation, dated at San Francisco, 1862, says “from
60 to 80 per cent, of tbe metal actually existing
in the mineral, ns shown by fire assay, escapes
amalgamation and flows away as debris.” I have
known Goorgiau quartz mills to lose even a
larger per centage than that. From one or two
reoent assays which I have made in South
Georgia, I am convinced that the Stato only re
quires prospecting to develop© its very rich re
sources, bothanriferona and argentiferous. Tho
gold quartz of Georgia contains a large per
centage of iron pyrites, bismuth, antimony (in
small proportions), arsenic, galena, yellow mica,
etc. etc. These rebellious substances require
special treatment, and until science takes tho
place of tho present method of manipulation in
this State, mining will remain a failure. It is
useless to promulgate tho predominant geolog
ical notion prevailing here that Georgia has no
well defined ledges or reefs. I say differently,
or rather that those parties who say so are in
error. Theory will not stand a«Binst thousands
of developments which, withm the past ten
yeora, have absolutely upset it. I hope to see
at the coming fair specimens of quartz from
Cherokee that will compare favorably with any
in tho world. The method of manipulation in
Georgia is the simple stamper, battery and
quicksilver ripple. The method in California
is to crush the quartz to the fineness of wheaten
flour; then grind it to an impalpable pulp; af-
terwards boil it, using quicksilver and tho other
chemicals known only to the initiated. This is
the first process. Concentration takes place
next, and afterwards the collection of the
mnndio under tho generio term of black sand,
familiarly used in mining parlance.
I am thoroughly convinced that this State is
highly anriforon3, and can bo proved so with
little expense. I can almost prognosticate that
gold and silver will displace, at no very distant
day, cotton and corn. Let every farmer when
he sinks a well take from it a dish of dirt, place
water with the dirt and givo it a rotary motion
for four or fivo minutes; then gradually wash
off the light substance, and the mineral, if any,
will bo seen in tho bottom of the dish. If the
result is black sand and magnetic it is a good
sign of the locality being aunferuons. I shall,
from time to time’ forward you sketches of my
farther experience.

CHEAP GASLIGHT
TS a simple, safe and reliable apparatus for sup-
1 plying PUBLIC BUILDINGS and PRIVATE
RESIDENCES, with a superior and CHEAP GAS
LIGHT.
Upwards of FOUR HUNDRED are in successful
operation in private residences, churches, factories,
etc.
No other apparatus is operated on the same or
any similar principle, which guarantees a light of
uniform qualify, in either argand or open Burners,
WITHOUT THE USE OF ARTXFiCLU. HEAT.
The practical operation of the Machines can be
seon at tho PASSENGER SHED of the Eailroad
Companies in MACON; also at the Printing and
Publishing House of Messrs J. W. BURKE & CO.,
We call attention to the following extract from a
letter from J. W. Burke, Esq.:
Macon, Ga., March 23,1871.
“We have had one of the U. S. Gaslight Comps
ny’e Machines, in operation since the 10th of No
vember, 1870, and it is perfectly satisfactory to us
in its general working and cheapness. We paid tho
Macon Gaslight Company for four months of last
year and the year previous—viz: November, De
cember, January and Fobruary—$899.50. In using
this Machine our gas for tho four corresponding
mouths cost us $114—thus saving us in that time
$285.56. The light is quite aa good as that of the
City Gas Company, and has tho advantage of being
entirely under our control to use as wq please.
During tho severe weather in December it burned
without intermission, not being at all affected by
the freeze. We see no trouble in the Machine or
the light, and cheerfully recommend it.”
