The World of Friday prints a broad aide of extracts from the rural Democratic press of the State to show that tho Democracy of New York WiU purge itself of tho frauds of the Tammany leaders. Lot them do it without fear or doubt- ing Let them “cry aloud and spare not.’’ Tammany, like tho FhiUisUne Delilah, has shorn the Democratic Sampson of his locks and made him the sport of the men of Dagon. Thieving becomes the Medicals, and nobody looks for anything better from them. They don't understand any other use for a govern ment than to make money out of it; and benco for all those that can’t get thoir hands directly into tho national strong box, there must lie pro tective tariff bounties and fishing lionntios and nil the other corrupt contrivances of class legis lation. Bat n stealing Democracy is a mon- ntrnm horrendum — a misbegotten creature, which all men should curse. Wo thank God that, thus far, the South baa never shown such a thing as a den of Democratic thieves. They may say what they wrill else, but they can't say tho Southern Democracy took to stealing. The North now and then produced a Democratic de faulter, hut nevertheless tho general and proud record of tho party has been faithful, honest and economical administration. The puliUe records ao far ahow that the Democracy as n party bavo beon honest. Let them maintain the character by washing Ibeir bonds of all knavery wherever they find it. The Ule Rw.lshn *1.

Tho community was startled by the announce ment in onr Sunday morning’s iasne of tho death of tbia dialiagninhcd gentleman. lie died suddenly at tho Wesleyan Female College, of wbioh bo waa tho honored President, on Sat- ono ‘ urday night at 11} o'clock. The immediate oanae of his death was doubllesi tho paralysis of some vita] organ, either tho heart or longs. Ho had been unwell during the week, bnt was diligently prosecuting bis duties connected with tho opening of a new college year, and had no serious apprehensions of fatal diseaao. The evonlng of his death waa spent in singing with the Mnlborry Street Church choir, an exercise in which hia aonl always fonnd the highest pleasure. The latter part of the evening was ooonpiod in social conversation with friends, and he seemed unusually cheerful and buoyant. Ho retired to bis bed room at 101 o'clock, when bia wife found him suffering with andden pain in the chest. He immediately took Rome alight remedy, bnt finding no relief, physicians were called, who arrived only in time to pro nounce him dead. Tbns suddenly has passed away one of the nobleat and purest of earth's children. The erudite and aooompltahod scholar, the cultivated gentleman, tho tender hnsband and father, the finished and anooeaafnl teacher, the guilders and atnoora Christian—he filled a large place in the publio heart and nover forfeited the public confidence. A fall sketch of bis life and character will be furnished by another pen. Peaoe to bis ashes. be C.rent Expectations- Will They Krullzctl ? Editors Constitution: Aa the Genaral As sembly, which is shortly to convene, is largely Democratic, the country fully expect that the first step taken toward reform, and the relief of onr oppressed people, will lie the reduction of the per diem of the General Assembly. If this is not done, confidence will be lost, and onr hopea for tho future greatly chilled. The Fcoplr. We assure our correspondent that we have no ilonbt whatever that the next General Assembly will reduce the prerent extravagant per diem of its members.—Constitution, 1st. If they do not, they'll hear mnsio from their constituent* that most people don't mneh enjoy. And if they don’t, In addition, ent down all other extravagant salaries that they can reach, and make retrenchment their motto, they may make np their minds to stay at home after one l«rm. The people demand, and will insist upon the moat rigid economy in all expenditure*, consistent with competent service and the dig nity of the Slate. But that $9 per diem gongs must be repudiated, anyhow. Cotton improved a little in Liverpool yester day. The total receipts at all points during the first month of the cotton year were 76,343 bales, against 124,Ct9 tho previous year, showings falling off of 48,306 bales.

Amo no onr viator* yesterday were Mr. Fitch, of the Griffin Star, and Mr. Christian, of the Outhbert Appeal. May their shadow* grow To Remedy Inequality In Represent ation. Certain readers in a neighboring county send na a bill which waa introduced into the last Leg islature, but not pressed to vote, providing that each oounty shall pay it* own representative* in the General Aaumbly, and may determine beforehand, by vote, whether or not they will be represented in that body. The bill and an argument to sustain it will be fonnd in another part of this edition, and we call the attention of the reader to them. The object U to pre vent the injnstioe of exacting from populous oonnties the eost of representing the others. Now, we think there ia far greater injnstioe in thia unequal representation than that in volved in the mere eoet of per diem and mile age. Representation, like taxation, ought to bo equal, and it ia a much more mischievous piece of injnstioe that in some oonnties it should require 2,000 votes to make n representative in the Legislature, and in others only two or three hundred. This gives the non-populona oountiea not only more money than they pay in tax aa a compensation for their attendance on the Legis lature—but far worse, it gives them a tremen dously disproportionate and unequal power in governing the State. In the non-populona oountiea, although they may be unable to pay their Legislator, every man oonnta in influence upon the entire polities of the State aa much as eight or ten men in the populous counties. Take for illnatration the following exhibit from the last Comptroller's report: Appling has C78 polls; Bryan, 516; Charlton, 289; Coffee, 420; Colquit, 207; Dade, 388; Eebola, 308; 'Glaaa- oock, 401; Irwin, 279; Pierce, 359; Telfair, 373; Towns, 367; Ware, 322; Wayne, 337; Wil- eox, 325—end all send fifteen representatives to 5,567 polls. Now, take Chatham, with 4,585 polls; Richmond, 3,118; Fulton, 2,429; Bibb, 1,988; Houston, 3,336—these also send, in all, fifteen representatives to 15,554 polls. In the one ease we have a representative to every 371 polls, and in tho other a representative to 6very 1,036 polls. Let ini Me how it is a* to voter* ? In the last general election reported by the oomptrcller the fifteen thousand oonnties first named, polled 4762 votes and elected fifteen representatives, or ono representative to every 318 voters. The five counties named polled 29,015 votes and elected fifteen representatives, or one represent tative to every 1934 votes. Thus we aee that a voter in the one class of counties was worth six times ss much as a voter in tho others—that is to say, one voter in Wilcox and the other conn- tioa had six times the power in miking the government of Georgia, that a voter in Chat ham or Richmond or Bibb possessed. That is terrible. It is an awful evil in any State, and it is a wholly inadequate remedy to compel these non-populous counties to con tribute more tban their rateable portion of the e xpense by providing that each county shall pay for its own representation. Any man or any party wishing to nae representatives in the Gen eral Assembly for their own purposes, would be glad to make that bargain. They would be glad to charter aa many representatives as might be necessary for any corrupt purpose and pay their per diem and mileage. No, no 1 This bill does not tonch tbo real evil —which defeats all justice and equality in the popniar representation, and makes some citi zens have six representatives where others have Tbis ia the crowning curse of these new oonnties,wbioh never onght to have been created nnti! they bad a representative population equal to the standard. The Constitution provides for 175 representatives, and every new county abonld be required to show its rateable propor. lion ont of the sum total in the State, to entitle it to one of these representatives. Can thia be done? Yes, at orce. Bo soon as the Legislature meets it ean remodel the whole apportionment. The eonatitntion (see parapraph 2d of seotion 3d) empowers the “General As sembly after each oensos by the United States government” to change the apportionment of representation, bnt in no event to inorease the aggregate number of representatives This is the very session at which it can and mast bo done, because the oensns baa just been comple ted. It will be one of the most important dnties of tho Legislature to make a now apportionment bill. In relation to representatives it abonld fix a representative ratio, and where a connty baa insufficient population combine it with one or more to inanre an aqnal and jnst standard of representation aa nearly aa possible. Death of Dr. Ilonnrll. Tbe announcement of tbia calamity, on Sun day morning, oame upon onr people like a clap of thunder in a dear sky. The sad event oo- onrred ao late Saturday night that there was time only for a brief and abrupt announcement for the morning's edition. It is seldom, even in the ca'alogne of sadden deaths, that life is terminated with so little premonition. Tbo sum mons fonnd him apparently in improved health, and harried him away, as it were, in a moment, with the utterance of bnt a singlo complaint of pain. It waa but a step across the river. Ono foot touched heaven’s threshold before the other bad fairly left the earth. He has vanished like a dream, bnt tho record of hia life, and tha in fluence of hia teachings and bis example wiU remain forever. Dr. Bonnell was one of the loveliest and best of men—a man whose every act illustrated n noble nature, hallowed by a supreme devotion to religions dnty. He was a bright and shining example of tbe Christian scholar and gentleman. To lose him wla griev ous—* terrible blow to bis family—a severe stroke upon the college—tho church and society; bnt tbo mellow radiance of Christian hope and consolation anrronnda bis grave, and shows ns that tbe common loss is his nnestimable gain Wo are assured that satisfactory biographical mementoes of tbo Doctor will be shortly pub lished in tbis paper by those holding daily pro fessional relations with him. A Grave Charge. At a meeting of the citizens of Montgomery, held on Thursday, to do honor to the memory of the murdered Clanton, CoL Joseph Hodgson, formerly editor of the Mail and now State Su perintendent of Education, made a moat elo quent address, from which the following ia an extract: His very magnanimity of character was his death. He was willing in his magnanimity to treat one who proved an assassin aa a man of honor. He met hia death like the peerless hero be was. Gen. Clanton died in the eanse of the State of Alabama. His life had been threatened again and again by tbe friends of the corpora tion against which be had been employed by the State. He was advised not to go to East Tennessee. Hia friends pleaded with him to avoid personal collisions. He had bat one an swer and that was the State bad employed him to guard her interests, and no intimidation oonld move him from his purpose to go wherever hi* duty called him and wherever the interests of the State demanded bia presenoe. He waa assassinated in eold blood. All tbo eirennutanoes of the tragedy point to a conspir acy for hia death. Tho agent of the hostile corporation introduces a notorious desperado. A quarrel ia instantly sprung by tha assassin. A gun is in convenient reach. A horse ia ready. The deed ia done, and in the fall of Gen. James H. Clanton nnder the weapon of the aasaasin the State of Alabama fell. Tbe charge contained in this extract is of avery grave nature, and one wbioh we cannot bnt believe willbe proved witbont foundation. Such an assas sination is something too horrible even for con templation. It would justify, if anything ever does, the bloodiest retribution on every partici pant in it that vengeance could devise. Wo hope the whole troth of this murder may be dragged to light, and if CoL Hodgson is right, that the assassin and hia aooompliee* may atone for their infamy on the gallows within thirty days. Letter from rarrolfon. Casboltow, Ga_, September 28, 1871. Editors Telegraph and Messenger : After two weeks cloudy weather we are having floe weather on cotton now, warm days and eool nights. The ootton crop ia the best we have had since tbe war, if froat will stay off two week* longer. The farmers have a cheerful look and gather as fast as it opens. Tbe turnip crop was never more promising, with e larger area of ground sowed than usual. Where guano was used on ootton or grain it has paid a good per cent on the investment.

Engines have been ordered at Baldwin A Co.'s Works, Philadelphia, and are expected by tbe same time, after which track laying will be commeneed at onee.” Savannah is talking about enlarging her boundaries by six additional square miles, which will make her entire area about ten and a half square miles. Mr. G. R. Henry, traveling agent for the Savannah Republican, died from a congestive -hill, *t Blacksbear, last Thursday. The Savannah Republican, of Sunday, says Attemftxd Kcicinx.—Yesterday, a citizen of Savannah, while laboring under a fit of insanity, attempted hia own destruction by cutting his throat with a pocket knife, inflicting a severe gash into tbe jugular, bnt prompt medical aid waa rendered, hemorrhage stopped, and it is hoped he will recover. Mr. had bnt a few days ago returned from atrip North, whither he had been for the benefit of bis health. He waa looking remarkably well on Friday, bnt return of tbe malady from which it was thought he bad entirely recovered, produced tbe results stated. The Early oounty News hears of two women near Blakeley, who have left their husbands to avoid starvation. That's a gay reoord. The Bainbridge Sun aaya a family of negroes have just emigrated from that place to Mi ebusetts, and wo judge from a remark he makes that the editor would bo pleased to have others follow suit. lVe clip the following from tho Chroniole and Sentinel of Sunday: A Pitiable Object.—On last Thursday night a policeman fonnd a woman on tho street en tirely naked and to the cool antnmn breezes. She was a poor idiolio oolored woman, named Harriet Lewis, and in addition to being naked was almost dead from lack of food. She waa carried to the station house and the Chief of Polios sent ont and purchased her some clothing. Yesterday morning a permit was ob tained from the Ordinary and she was sent to the Freedmen’s Hospital to be cared for. Her exhaustion from want of food was ao groat that she oonld soarcely walk without assistance. It is hard to realize that such a case as this should occur in the city of Augusta. IVn-ONix. —liev.

The Anguata police are atratting around mighty fine in their new hats, which are of felt.highcrowned, and “lovely as a poet’s dor-r-e-a-m." The Athens Banner tells the following siory Fokbidden Fbuit toe Sweetest.—A French lady, holding np a glass of water, remarked Were it a sin to drink this, how delidons it would be!” This innate propensity to indnlge in forbidden things waa strikingly illustrated by a little boy of our town a few days ago. The neighbors of a certain school complained that some of tbe pnpils used profane language when ont at play. Tho teacher enquired of the boys who it was that indnlged in so reprehensible a practice One little fellow manfully owned np, and reoeived tho punishment. Ho afterwards said to some of his atsoeiatoa: “It was a tight plaoo for a fellow to be in. “I couldn't tell a lie, but bated to acknowledge tbo oo-n. Bnt I intend to continue enssin' till I'm twelve years old. I’m not accountable for my sins until I reach that age, and 1’U have the fan while I can." We find iho following in the Atlanta Constitn- tion of Sunday: Seduction Case.—For two day* DeKalb Su perior Court has been engaged in tha trial of Rev. M. D. Wood (Presbyterian) on tho charge of seduction. Eminent oounsel arc arrayed on each side. The State is represented by So licitor General E. P. Howelland CoL 0. Peeples. The defendant by CoL G. N. Lester and Hon. M. A. Candler. But two witnesses were examined for the prosecution, a Mrs. Cbivcra and her danghter. The defense offered no testimony. The yonng Miss Chivere testified that she was a member of the church of which he was a pastor, and at tended hia school. That she placed great con fidence in him. In 18G7, tho first time, she states, that he nsed improper language to her, was in a lane. He praised her beanty and intel ligence, and bagged and kissed ber. She cried, bnt be accompanied ber home and kissed her at the gate. The second time he came to ber bonse after bed time, and betrd ber lesson. Afterwards be pleads headache and lying upon a bed begged ber to mb bis head. From this time sbo dates ber ruin. She states that sbe frequently went to his house of her own accord, and that tbe intimacy was carried on from 1867 to 1870 or 1871. She avera that he told ber that his wife waa bo only in name; that he oonld not confide in her; that she couldn't live long; that he and Miss Cbivers were oongenial, and that on the death of hia wife be would marry ber; that he loved her bet ter than any other woman. Sbe is an intelli gent witness and admitted that she knew she was doing wrong, bnt said that she loved him. Solicitor General Howell and Colonel Peoples spoke in behalf of the State, and Hon. M CAcdler and Colonel Lester for tho defense. The speeches were able and impressive. We noticed a number of divines present. The court house was thronged. Tbe case has excited a deep in terest from the high character sustained by Rev. Mr. Wood for parity. The jury, after an ab sence of one hour, returned a verdict of guilty. Notice was given of a motion for new trial and for an arrest cf judgement. Mayor Screven, of Savannah, has accepted a renomination from tho Democrats of that city. AU the candidates for Aldermen nominated at the same time have also accepted. Crops in Bibb. Editors Telegraph and Messenger: Balow I will give an estimate of crop statistics accord ing to my observation in Bibb county, for tbo present year: Wheat and oat* were about two- thirds of a crop, except in certain localities where the yield was below a half crop on ao- connt of mat and the wet weather in Jane, which interfered with harvesting Corn has tamed oat sboat an avenge half cr-p, except bottoms and fresh lands planted early. These may be two-thirds of a crop. Grass is unex ceptional, bnt drying np very rapidly at pre» Harvesting should be pushed to secure good fonge. Peas, unless cut off by frost, will be two-thirds of a crop, by the lari aa a standard, bnt the crop of peas in 1870 waa not good. Po tatoes, if frost stays off a month longer, will be eqnal to 1870. A very good crop of potatoes ia generally expected. Cotton, ob 1 ootton. What shall I aay of oot ton ? Full half as much as last season may he gathered, bnt tbe staple and texture of the oot ton will be inferior. Drouth, wet weather, storms, and all disasten thrown into one year have reduced the yield of cotton at least one- half. Vie will call loudly for guanos next season for cotton—it wo can get them. Would it not pay for the manufacturers of and dealer* in cotton to form a gift association to distribute guano gratis to the cotton planter? The material oonld be prodnoed a third cheaper and they would be benefitted by low prices. Or would it not be advisable for guano dea era to reduce the price to the lowest point for profit and sell it by lottery ? Say $5 tickets to draw a ton or nothing; $2 50 tickets to draw a half ton or nothing. We mnst use guano to make cotton on old uplands or dear np onr new lands. We are too poor to pay present prices for it. Who will come to our aid and swell the next crop of notion to five millions ? or will we have to pro duce ootton for nothing? or will we cease to produce it ? Better quit miking it unless we ean make a living profit at it. AU tradesmen want a living profit—abonld not we ? Respectfully, J. S. Wnraian. Macon, Ga , October 2, 1871. Uaoom, October 2, 1871.
