Koine State Convention.

dents, first district, William Schley; second
district, D. A. Vason; third district, R. E. Red
ding; fourth district, L. F. Livingston; fifth

EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE.
First district,^®. D. Capers; second district,
H. K. Baraum; third district, J. H. Tanner;
fourth district, J. S. Lawton; fifth district, T.
J. Smith; sixth district, R. D. Wynne; seventh
district, General W. Phillips.
The Convention, as has been telegraphed, is
very largo and enthusiastic. President Colquit
in a forcible opening speech, urged the impor
tance of more system in farming. There is no
safer occnpation than agriculture ; bnt it must
be pursued in a less speculative spirit—less with
a view to sudden and rapid acquisition. The
farmer’s plans must be more extensive and far
reaching, and cover every interest of the home
and society. They most rest on ample provision
for all the necessaries and comforts of life and
a permanent improvement of the homestead.
Col. Barnett road his report as Commissioner
to the various county agricultural societies of
Georgia. Re gave a very enoouraging report
of the condition of crops in general, and stated
that a widening interest in the system of im
proved agriculture) was visible throughout the
•Stale. He advocated the formation of numer
ous farmers’ clubs, and felt sure that the bene
ficial influence of the State Agricultural Society
was being daily felt and appreciated by the
farmers and people of the State.

Hriolnllon of llie lilt of September Do-
draja Foreign Intervention — Troelm
I'al.e to Ihe Repnblic ns Well ns to tltc
Umpire.
Ihe Herald, of Monday, prints tho following
private letter of the ex-Empress Eugenio to a
[ti«d in regard to General Trochn’s attack on
: rin the National Assembly which will bo read
mb considerable interest by all who havo
melted the conrso of events in France during
the past twelvo months;
Ghiselhubst, Juno 27, 187l'
Mr Drtn A : I havo jnst read the dis
burses with which Gen. Trochu has defended
imself in tho Assembly; and I assure you they
hire awakened in me rather a painful emotion
than the more astonishment that might seem
moral.
It was especially painful to me to see a Gon
ial—and a French General—in order to excuse
the faults ho bad committed endeavor to throw
the responsibility on a woman.
I do not gay that there wore not gravo errors
« °t>r side, and in these I accept my share;
l et what I cannot sailer is that any one should
accuse me of having acted at n moment when
the country was so unhnppy only to save the
dynasty. From the Cth of Augnst to the 4th of
September, laying asido, as was my duty, all
personal thoughts, I had bnt one preoccupation,
one only—that of saving our poor country.—
I'eaml Troelm recites inaccurately tho dis
patch received on the night of August 17, and
*-.oh contained these words: “The General
returns, and the Emperor will follow him.” It
*1? he, and he alone, who asked that I should
oppress the name of tho Emperor; and his
pretext for this yas a proclamation that he had
fircady made in advance. He appears to say
sow that, yielding to a sentiment of personal
•abition, I could have sacrificed tho Sovereign
to tho Regency.
You know the affection that I have always had
*ad that I have still at the bottom of my heart
far the Emperor. It only increases now that I
toe him so calmly and so resignedly accept
trerything—even to the most infamous calum
nies.
General Trochu has gone round and round
*• defenoe of Paris, as he went round tho Tn-
^cries—without ever entering. He has said
himself that at tho end of September his opin
ion wm that any successful resistance was im
passible. Why. then, push tho sublime folly of
Motinuing the defence anyhow?
He put on a good face toward the republic,
*-ich he has betrayed, disdaining his engage-
~rats made elsewhere. I will never forget
^'•th what an air of assumed sineerity he told
■Ml could count on his faith ns a Catholic and
•Breton. He does not know, then, that a Cath-
ac never lies and that a Breton has never used
toe sword received from his sovereign against
‘-at sovereign himself.

i boptember broke tho engagement for inter-
to which certain Powers had pledged

A poem was then read, laudatory of agricul

A general discussion on tho merits of “home

Laura Fair In Her Prison Cell—IIow
She was Dressed, and How She
Looks.
A Herald reporter has lately interviewed Mrs.
Fair, now lying under sentence of death in tho
San Francisco jail. From his letter, published
in that paper of tho 7th inst, wo extract as fol
lows:
She was lying on a narrow bedstead of paint
ed wood, and was habited in a cross barred black
and gray silk droBs, only visible at the bosom,
and fastened at tho nock with a brooch in jet
and gold. Over this was a loose tartan dressing
wrapper, and over the skirt of this was thrown
a black waterproof cloak, which concealed her
foot. Hor right hand was under her head,
which rested on tho snow-white pillow, over
which her thin curling snnsot auburn locks fell
somewhat tossed. They were parted in the cen
tre and nnbraided, and over and anon as . they
strayed over hor broad, high forehead, they
were pushod gently back by a delicate, small,
thiu band. You could not say she was beauti
ful. Her figure, os well as it could be seon un
der her heavy wrapper, was rather
HLENDEB, THOUGH PEBHATS WEM, SHATED-.
The neck was long and round, and as she raised
herself for a moment showed that it supported
a well balanced head and sloped gracefully into
tho lines of her ehonlders. Then tho face.
What was therovif tho murderess in that? First

of clear dark blue. A trifle hard tho look that
dwelt in them even while a smile was on the lips,
that seemed to bo fond of dropping at the cor
ners into something between a sneer and a pout.
Tho nose was gently aquiline and sensitive as a
war horse at tho nostrils; the jaws wore round
ed, but not fleshy, and, in fine, from the round
ed chin to tho forehead there was an ex
pression more of well-hidden, all-watching in
trigue and ruse and latent boldness than of pos
itive aggressive badness, and nothing of what
it is vulgarilv supposed
A MURDERESS SHOULD APPEAR.
Yet as onr interview progressed there peeped
ont from time to time such an occasional
shadow of mental thunder cloud as showed tho
lightnings not to be far on.

Chills and Fever seem to be the order of the day,
but such is not tho case with those who take our
Tonic Liver Bitters.
In our Southern climate, tho system is constantly
absorbing malarious poison, the first effects of
which are to stnpify the Liver; eostiveness comes
next; coated tongae, dull feeling of langor, head
ache—soon to be followed by a. chilly sensation and
burning fever. To prevent this, kcep your Liver
stimulated w.th eomo good vegetable medicine, and
tho TONIC LIVER BITTERS is better for it than
anything. Incorporated in it are Cinchona Bark,
Gentian and other valuable vegetable tonics.
The dose is from a tablospoonfnl to a wino glass
full two or three times a day, or often enough to
produce a healthy action on the bowels. Tho Bitters
should only be taken when you need them, and
your feelings will tell you when.
Sold by dealers generally, at $1 for large bottles.

CHEAP GASLIGHT
I S a simple, Bafa and reliable apparatus for sup
plying PUBLIC BUILDINGS and PBTVATE
RESIDENCES, with a superior and CHEAP GAS
LIGHT.
Upwards of FOUR HUNDRED are in successful
operation in private residences, churches, factories,
ote.
No other apparatus is operated on tho samo or
any similar principle, which guarantees a light of
uniform oualitv, in either argand or open Banters,
WITHOUT THE USE OF ARTIFICIAL HEAT.
The practical operation of tho Machines can be
seen at the PASSENGER SHED of the Railroad
Companies in MACON; also at the Printing and
Publishing House of Messrs. J. W. BURKE & CO.
We call attention to the following oxtract from a
letter from J. W. Burko, Esq. :
Macon', Ga., March23,1871.
“Wo have had one of the U. S. Gaslight Comp#
ny’s 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 the
Macon Gaslight Company for four months of last
year and the year previous—viz: November, De
cember, January and February—$339.5G. In using
this Machine our gas for the four corresponding
months cost us $114—thus saving ns in that time
$285.56. The light is quite as good as that of the
City Gas Company, and has tho advantage of being
entirely under onr control to use as we please.
During the severe weather in December it burned
without intermission, not being at alt affected by
the freeze. We see no trouble in the Machine or
the light, and cheerfully recommend it.”

THE MOORE OOTTON GIN.
ALSO, A GEKTJINE PATTEEN OP THE G&xSWOLD GIN,
FORMERLY AT DOUBLE WELLS.
rpHE undersigned, having resumed tho manufacture of tlio above Gin, propose to make it what itwas
J. boforo tho war—The favorite of the South. Onr work stands upon its merits, and wo think this a
sufficient guarantee. We have secured the services of some of the best mechanical talent in the North
ern shops, in addition to some of the beat workmen from the shop of t lio late S&mnol Griswold. Mr. Chas.
Gardner, who served eight years’apprenticeship under E. Carver & Co., at East Bridgowator, Mass.,
and who was employed as Superintendent of the Double Wells Shop, from the commencement of the
manufacture of the Mooro Cotton Gin, until its suspension, is again at his post, and will givo oach Gin
his personal inspection bofore it leaves tho shop.
In calling the attention of planters to our Cotton GinB, we desire that they should notice tlie mprove-
ments that wo offer, which are substantially aa follows:
A PORTABLE ROIL BOX,
For obtaining any inclination of the Gin Bib or Grate, Is used; tho object of which is to improve in the
quantity ginned, or lessen the quantity and improve the quality of lint. Also, to gin damp or wet cotton
to alter the picking or separating tho lint from the seed—either to take more lint off. or less lint from
the seed, as circumstances require. We use both the common Boll Box and a Swinging Front. The
latter is arranged to let out all the seeds and hulls in a moment, and is very easily managed.
THE GIN BRUSH
Wo mako, cannot be excelled by any hair brush used. The bristles are all drawn in by a cord, and the
timber is all selected from the best lumber, well soasonod; and every Brush iB made perfectly fire and
rat proof.
CYLINDER AND BRUSH BOXES
Aro both oscillating and plain Can furnish either, as may bo ordered. Wo lino them with tho best
babbit metal.
GJ-IINT SAWS.
Wo mako aU the Saws that we use from tho best English Cast Steel, and of any size that may be de
sired. We employ, to superintend and manufacture our Saws, one of the best saw-makers in tho South;
and our machinery for tho manufacture of Gin Saws cannot be excelled.
COTTON SEED CRUSHING MILL.
Wo are the only snccestfol manufacturers of this important and useful invention—tho Cotton Gin,
with the Cotton Seod Crashing Mill attached. It will hardly bp necessary here to allude to the immense
saving and economical use of crushed cotton seed, as & manure. We received a gold medal as a premi
um, from tho Fair of tho Cotton Planters’ Convention, held in Macon, Ga., 18G0, for the best Cotton
Seed Crushers attached to tho Gin Stand, to crush the seed as fast as it escapes from tho Roll. Wo re
fer to some of the many certificates that wo havo on the subject.
TRIAL OF THE GINS.
We keep constantly on hand seed cotton, and overy Gin is tried bofore it leaves tho shop—old or new
REPAIRING OH OLD GINS.
Wo have a complete assortment of the very best Cotton Gin Machinery in tho country, and make re
pairing of old Gins a specialty. Planters wiU do well to send in their old Gins, and havo them made aa
good as now, at a much less cost than a new Gin can be bought for. Send on your orders and old Gins
° m are also authorized by Messrs. Findlay’s Sons to receive orders for Findlay & Craig’s Screw Cotton
Press, and Craig’s Patent Portable Horse Powor, and Castings generally.
For particulars, send for Circular and Price List.

PATENT EXCELSIOR COTTON GIN
F OR the past fortyyears I have been engaged in
tlie manufacture of Cotton Gins, and havo set
to work on plantations, and have seen in operation
hundreds of Gins, and have no hesitancy in pro
nouncing this the BEST WORKING GIN I ever'
saw. It runs light—gins fast—does not injure the 1
cotton—impoesiole to break the roll—no use for
self-feeders—and no trouble to feed. The commit
tee at tho late Bibb County Agricultural Fair, being
so well satisfied of its superiority over anything
thev over saw. awarded me the premium. I am
now prepared to furnish any one in want of a Gin.
A sample of Excelsior and also of the Griswold
Gin can he seen at Caihatt A Card’s Hardware
