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. Eaw.t county tax digest, condensed from tho Early County News: • Foils—White <!» Plucks 558—Total 977 No; acres of land 206,809 Value of land 462,565 Yaluo of town property 50,132 Money and solvent debts 174,569 Mornhandisr.... 35,190 Stocks and bonds. 37,000 Inverted in cotton manufactories 20,000 Aggregate valaoof property $998,274 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.

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.

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.” [8igned] J.
