Ax laox Oxxxax.—A correspondent of the Knoxville Herald points ont tho advantages of that place ae e great iron oentre. Within thirty milea of that city three kinds of iron ore, and ooal and limestone, ell in Inexhaustible quanti ties, are found ins radios of a quarter of a mile. Ooal ia worth in that city St 60 per ton. Why don't thay set the furnaces howling ? WaamaoTOH Cottjctt Fats.—The editors of the Ttuoaai-a acknowledge a card of invita- Uon lo the Washington County Fair, which is to be held at Hsndereville from the 9th to the 11th instant, inclusive. The premium list, which we have examined, ia a very liberal one and weU calculated to develop home industry; and we see Ibat W. A. Hardee's Sons, of Savan nah, offer a special premium of $60 for the best bale of oolton. There ia also to be a tournament under the supervision of that gallant Knight of the Quill, Sir J. M. G. Medlock, whom we hope will never bo unboned. We wish the Washing- tooiaxui the moat perfect Baeoem. Lsoaxxs Couwtt.—The Herald Commissioner reports In regard to Laurens county that there baa never been a negro killed by a white man In that oonnty stnoe the war, exoept in one elec tion riot, in which e band of negro militia fired upon the whites, kiUed two or three of them and were subsequently dispersed by the people. On the other hand, he ebowe several instances of barbarous murders of whites by blacks, for mere purposes of plunder. There has been no vio lence in that county, on the pert of tho whites, exoept such as was moat naturally excited by reokleea and unpunished brutality and lawless ness on ibo part of some villainous black politi cians. Uxtasr.—The World of the let instant says: Considerable uneasiness ia beginning to be felt on eeoonnt of tbe non-arrival of the Grand Duke. Notwithstanding tho report that the Russian fleet was at Fnnohai, Madeira, on the Cth of October, and oould not well bo expected in New York within e month after that date, it is remembered that more then a week ago, the Emperor of Russia, who might be supposed to be well informed as to tbe movements of bis son, telegraphed to minister Cataoazy, inquir ing whether the Russian fleet bad arrived, and evinotng tls anxiety by ordering immediate communication to be made on itH arrival. News of fearful storms prevailing both on tbe Euro pean and American shores of tbe Atlantic is not oaloulated to dispel the feara wbieb now prevail aa lo the safety of the fleet Thx Ku-incx Goxxjtto Refobt. —Washing ton dispatches aay that Senator Eoott, of Penn sylvania, ia there at work preparing hia report for Congress. It will be a most elaborate doe- oondnet of the war. The sub-oommitlee on the debts of the Southern States arc not yet ready, bni so far aa the statements are made up they show an increase of expenditure and taxation and debt that bid fair to overtop the most ex travagant estimates which have been made, and show an oppression of the people that would naturally enough provoke resistance in an unlawful shape. A Hion Psion roa One Radical Rascal.— Judge Noah Davis, United States District At torney of New York, bat stated to the commit tee of seventy that he has ample proof Ibat State Senator Bowen, a Republican in the last session of the Legislature, received ten thou sand dollars for voting for the tax levy bill, ten thousand for voting for all the ring bills, five thousand for voting for tbs Erie bill and five thousand for voting for the dty charter bill. And what'a more, Bowen has been nominated for re-election, end will be snocessfnl. Talk about Tammany corruption, when such cattle are re-endorsed by tho Radical party. That's tho sublimity of cheek. Zanita—A Talk or tbx Yo Sxxrrx.— Messrs. Hard A Houghton, of New York, favor us, through Messrs. J. W. Burke A Co., of this dty, with a copy of this story by Tberese Yelverton, Viscountess Avonmore, aa she writes herself on the title page. Some of onr citizens remember her ladyship and will possibly be curious to see how aha acquit* herself aa a novelist. Wo notice that many of the entire make very favorable mention of it. J. W. Bulks A Co. have it for sale. Price fll 50. Sax Suck.—Wtf had almost forgotten this famous personage until yesterday, when we re ceived from Hurd A Houghton, New York, through J. W. Burke A Co., of this dty, a copy of his sayings and doings, moat elegantly gotten np in green and gold, with illustrations by-Dar- ley. Typographically and plctorially, Sam was never in snob high feather before. We shall revive onr memories cf Sam's inimitable take off of tbe “Bine Noses” with greet delight In its sphere this book ia unapproachable, and those who have not road it have fan in store. ••Old Virgixnt Nevus Tran.”—Tho Balti more Son's Washington eorrespondent, under date of Wednesday, telegraphs that leading Vir ginia (?) Radicals there in that dty, admit that the Democrats will carry the election in that State on Tuesday next by a large majority. There is a general complaint among the Radi oala of the leek of necessary white support in three sections where there ere very large pro portions of negro population. “Ir Evxx I Cease To Lots”—And now they aay Grant doesn't mean to “return the lot of presents that he's got"—especially the Seneca Sand-stone part of them. The Preaident of the company says so. Wo thought the report to tho oontraiy, waa false. Grant isn’t on the give ex oept where his kin ere concerned, end it comes ont of Unde Sam's pocket As e Taker, tbongb —match him if yon can! Tax Nxoxo School Gorox nt Louisiana.— In Louisiana, one cf the deepest Radical gouges is the negro school business. Thus in Morehouse parish there sre twelve negro schools, each hav- from twelve to fifteen pupils; each school em ploys a teacher at SCO a month, or 8720 a year, and tbe 180 negro pupils attending 12 schools OOrt the State at least 88,G40 a year.

We have a oopy from Messrs. Hurd A Hough ton, of New York, through the courtesy of J. W. Burke A Go., of this city, who have it for sale. Prioe$lS5. A Wzstebn Idea or “Rxciixncux."—At Fort Wayne, Indiana, on Thursday night, Miss Julia Ward waa married to Thoe. P. Weaver. There were 1,000 invitations issued, and the knot was tied in the skating rink. And ihe papers ont there call it tho most “recAoreAe" affair ever known. Wo think so, loo. Why Don’t the Administration Apol ogize 7 The telegrams yesterday informed na that, in tho baste to declare martial law against tbe poor Sooth Carolinians, e careless clerk pnt “Marion oonnty” instead of “Union county" into the ofhdal proclamation, and nobody ever reed the proclamation OTer to see it was as near right as such a thing oould be. After the document had run ten days or a fortnight, the blander was discovered, and another proclamation waa issued lifting the military heel off of Marion county and transferring it to Union, with never a word of apology for the blonder. Tbe Marion men are left to pocket tho lose end console them- solves as beet they can. Now this conduct U worse than that of the drunken sheriff who banged the wrong man by mistake. He eent hia best apologies to the widow and children of the unfortunate defunct, saying be was drunk when he did it, and meant nothing of the kind. Although, aa a measure of redrew, this was far from satisfactory, yet. it showed at least a disposition to be just and kindly. Why did not Grant send hit regrets to the men of Marion county whom he had falsely stigmatized to the world as in a state of insur rection and unworthy the protection of civil lew, iS tbe rights end privileges of freemen ? Why did he not do it? If he waa drank, or ab sent when the proclamation was issued, or did not oars enough about the white people of South Carolina, to be certain whom he hit with hia military dub, he might at least have salved over tbe matter with some cheap expression of re gret for so serious an injustice. The Northern prints, however, charge at the facts in this case, that Grant waa abeent when both proclamations were issued. He was away when the first one came ont, giving the people Jive dayt to bring in their arms; which wss in the nature of an offal sacrifice to the malig nant demon of the Ku-klnx law. This prelimi nary tender of mercy was like reading the riot act to t mob, before the order to fire upon them, and was extended in the precise spirit of e bloody minded functionary who should pronounce the last word of the act and the com mand “fire ” in the same breath. Grant gave five dayt' warning, all of which had expired before half of the people he addressed oould possibly havo seen hia proclamation. Then, while be wea still away, came ont the seoond proclama tion based on the allegation that the people had not heeded the first one, when they oould not have seen it or he possibly have known whether it bad been heeded or not. Both of these bear his signature, and the presumption raised by the Northern prints is, that he signed both at the same time before he left the capi tal on his trip to New England. This is what some of them charge, and, if true, it is of a picoa with the whole business. .Still “Mazy.” The Washington Bepnbliean is still in donbt about the Bullock trick, and says no one ap- pesra to know what it means—that is, no one of ita atupid sort. For the New York Post (Rad.), a paper with its eyes open, appears to understand all about it, and the Republican prints what the Post says, thus contradicting itself. Says tbe Post: “The telegraph reports that Governor K. B. Bullock, of Georgia, has resigned. It adds that hia resignation has been anticipated for some time. This is not, however, probable; for only a few days ago Governor Bollock declared that he was not fearful of the result of the impeachment, which was threatened by the new Legislature. It is likely that, as the day for the session ap proached, tbe evidence against him accnmnlated so rapidly that he suddenly concluded to avoid the issue with the Legislature by resigning. Somebody ia responsible for a vast amount of extravagance and corruption in Georgia, and this aet will not weaken the charges made for many months against the Governor and his friends.” . And by the way: From the sneering way in which the Republican speaks of the great ab- sqnatiator—actually calling him “Bullock” without any prefix—we judge that he ia not very much considered about Washington, just now, among tbe trewly loyl, and that the Present Taker has dropped him aa an orange no longer eepable of being sqneezed. Grant has no more nae for a man who can't give him something, than a eat has for water. When Bullock was splurging at Willard's, a winter or two ago, and Blodgett at tbe National, keeping open house with free whisky, champagne, and Partagas, and paying Forney and the Republican man eenta a line for editorials urging re-reconstruc tion for Georgia and a seat iq the Senate for of Georgia,” and the “Hon. Foster Blodgett, Senator elect from Georgia.” -Vote, be jabers, it is plain Bullock and Blodgett—the latter of whom this same Republican said, a few weeks since, would be entirely ont of place in tbe Senate, intimating that the peni tentiary was possibly his proper sphere.— It all reminds ns of the story of Mr. Dixon, colored brother of the barber persuasion, some where up in Connecticut—New Haven, perhaps —who aaid that the first year be joined the chnroh he gave 810 aa his annual contribution, and all tbe brethren greeted him very warmly as “brother Dixon." The next year he gave only 85, and they dropped tbe brother and called him “Mr. Dixon.” The next year be only gave 8- 50, and then he was “Dixon,” and the next year when he gave nothing they cut him dead, and spoke of him aa that “old nigger Dixon.” The Course of the Legislature Thus far, has been characterized by great dignity, prudence and self-possession. The tion of the General Assembly is evidently con trolled by men who understand what they are abont, and will pnt no weapons in the hands of the enemies of Georgia. New perils nnqn tionabiy await the State; and if Mr. Conley and hia Radical backers assume and insistupon the abaurd position that the Legislature cannot provide by special election to fill Governor Bullock’s vacancy, a conflict of jurisdiction is likely to arise. But even in such event, the greater need of ooolness and address—of using no ill-considered word and of taking no step which will havo to be retraced. We believe the Legislature will prove itself a wise, and safe body. Hon. Clifford Anderson for Governor Below we publish a communication signed Many Citixma," urging the claims of this favorite son of Macon, aa a suitable candidate to fill the nnexpired portion of Gov. Bullock's term of offioe. Mr. Anderson stands in the front rank among the legal minds of Georgia, and is eminently qualified for any office in the gift of the people. Quite a number of names are mentioned in con nection with the gubernatorial office. We trust a fair showing will be allowed them all in the Convention, and then let the word be “close ranks and double quick" in solid oolumn against tbe enemy. Georgia eannot—must not, divide at this im portant jucetnie. Since the war we have been enabled to make headway even against Federal bayonets, a corrupt Executive, a Radical Judi ciary, and the edicts of a usurping President and Congress. Union and ooncert of action, have preserved ua from the fate of the Carolina* and Louisiana. Let the same spirit animate every Georgian in the approaching conflict, and we shall retain the proud prestige of being tbe freest of all tha late Confederate States: Macon, November 4th, 1871. Editor! Telegraph and Meutnger : If there should be an election for Governor for the un expired term of Governor Bollock, we beg to suggest as a candidate Hon. Clifford Anderson. It ia unnecessary to tell the people of Georgia who Mr. Anderson is. Hut past services, ts every citizen will attest, prove him to bo not only a man of capacity, but one of tbe great est integrity. Respectfully, Manx Citizens. GOVERNOR arLMCK’S SHARP PRAC TICE. Resigning the Governnrtbip of Grorrin to Iif»rn|»e Prosecalloii for friiiibexxlrment— Fleeing Hie Country with 81,LOO,000. Under tbe above flaming hesd, the New York Sun of Wednesday gives the Great Absquatn- lator tbe following advertisement: WaanNOTON, October 31.—The Georgia State officials have eent several telegrams to parties in tliia city to-day, relative to the late resigna tion of Governor Bollock. These telegrams say that this resignation ia regarded as a piece of sharp practice to escape charges cf impeach ment and criminal prosecutions for swindling and embezzlement which are now pending f gainst him. It is proposed to issue warrants immediately for Bollock's arrest. He is now supposed to be in New "York, making arrange- leave the country. It is estimated mat Bollock has reabzed about a million of ,f ° m W* Georgia operations. His visit t ^' , c u y **! 10 confer with Secretary Dels- ofrelative to the late lease of tbefatate railroad. THE GEORGIA I’KEVi. The Quitman Banner notes, aa a sign cf the ‘demoralization of tbe age,” the fact that there are something leas than an hundred lawyers of that section who want to succeed O Neal, as Jndgo of the Alspaha Circuit—moat of whom, a few months sinoe, “damned to all eternity any man who would accept office froc^ a Radical Governor.” Mrs. Jane E. Jordan, for thirty years a resi dent of Perry, died last week. And Dr. J. C. Harvey died at HayneviUe, on Thursday, aged 70 years. The Houston Homo Journal says produce la very lively about HayneviUe, just now. Pota toes leave their patches in the night without any notice to their owners; com gets out of tbe way in some mvsteriou* manner, under cover of darkness; andcolton fairly gets up and flies. This is all owing to the fact that General Grant has not provided all his colored brethren with an offioe, henoo some of them must steal or work, and they are not prepared for the latter. The Washington Gazette expresses its gratifi cation at the great success of the late State Fair and says: It has been onr opinion, for some time, that there are too many big fain in this State. Rival cities havo entered into a sort of oontest on tbe subject, and rings and cliques have gotten np grand faira ss a pure speculation, and with the Sole object of making money. We are gratified at tbe failure of all such. There should be but one grand fair for tbe State, and that should be us near the centre of tbe State as possible: we know of no more eligible site than Maoon. This fair with one in each county, ia sufficient We mink, however, that the matter will Boon regu late Itself. The speculative concerns will soon break down and then everything will be concen trated upon one grand exhibition, and a grand exhibition it will be, too. We would urge upon onr County Agricultural Clubs, to unite with tho State Association, and to ignore all others. The people will soon cloy of too many fairs; many good things are spoilt by being made too common. The Savannah Advertiser, of Fridsy, says Hon. Solomon Cohen, of that city, was stricken with paralysis, at Augusta; the day before. The latest fashionable wedding at Savannah was that of Miss Cornwell and Mr. E. B. Chip- man, at Christ Church. The Savannah Advertiser says officer Tom Smith, of that city, had a rough time on Friday in attempting to arrest u desperate negro named Dick Williams. Tho latter, after attempting to shoot Smith, severely cut a man named Heit- man in the hand, who was aiding Smith, and slit the latter’s clothes across hia abdomen to the skin, finally making his escape. Another non-exploeivo kerosene lamp nearly burned a negro woman to death, at Savannah, on Friday night. She was only saved by tha oil’s not being thoroughly non-explosive. We find the following items in the Augusta Constitutionalist, of yesterday: Man Shot Accident ally.—Yesterday after, noon, abont one o’clock, persons in and near the Central Hotel were startled by the muffi-d report of a pistol near the front entrance. The clerk and several other gentlemen at once rushed to the door, and fonnd that a pistol in the coat pocket of Mr. Bose Williams, of Telfair county, who has been at the hotel for a day or two, had exploded, the ball passing through his head and inflicting a wound from which be probably died last night, aa the physicians bad no hope oe his recovery. At the time of the shooting Mr. Williams was sitting in a chair near the door, and as he was slightly intoxicated, it is supposed that be had placed a cocked pistol in his pocket, and that it had struck against one of tho arms of tho chair, csnBing it to explode. A Lunatic on the Raupaoe —Yesterday morning a little boy standing near tbe tents of Bobinaon’s circus was struck on the head and seriously wounded by a man, who was after wards arrested. Shortly afterwards a dispatch was received from Colombia, 8. C., stating that a Innatio had escaped from the asylum. Tbe dispatch gave the description of the es caped lunatic, which corresponded with that of the man who had been arrested, and be was socordingly lodged in jail to await the arrival of a keeper from the asylum. The Albany News says that Kimball’s ool- lapse has thrown ont of employment abont two thousand persons, with several months’ pay dne them for labor. It also says that “Judge Sessions, of the Sapreme Court, has granted an injunction against those attaching the property of tbe Brunswick and Albany road, and confirmed the appointment of Colonel John Screven as re ceiver. The rolling stock has been released, and tbe lumber trains are now running over tbe road. In a few days a daily passenger train will be Btarted from Brunswick to Albany. Aa to tho prosecution of the construction of the road beyond Albany, nothing is or can be de- rermined at present." The News gives tbe details of tho doings of OT/v,R0OTL.»WiSri“ t «jdSI 1 - t P* fte road*, who. it visions on their passage to Albany for Dr. Schanb and Mr. Blue, contractors on the road, loaded other care with the males, tools end provisions of other hands working on the road, with tbe avowed purpose of moviug them further up the road to work, and vamosed to Brunswick, leaving the hands standing in the woods without provisions, shelter or transportation. Beaching Brunswick, he loaded np the furniture of the offioe and all the commissaries, having an nounced hia intention to move his quarters to Albany or Cnthbert for the prosecution of the work, and leaving hundreds of men there with out food, rnado off with his train to Macon. There Messrs. Hazlehurst <t Minchan, contrac tors, pounced upon him for mosey due, and in order to seenre hia plunder he settled or com promised with them for $5,000. This financial feat was scarcely accomplished when Dr. Schanb, a Urge contractor, seized the supposed relieved train, and placed it in the hands of an officer of the law.” The Atlanta Sun, of yesterday, says: State Road Investigation.—Major Hillyer has introdneed a resolution to have the conduct of Foster Blodgett and his associates inquired into. This will, of conrse, be done. With a committee of the Legislature, clothed with power to compel the attendance of witnesses, and the production of books and papers, and such assistance as can be rendered by others, the bottom of dishonesty can be reached. Wo learn that Major Hargrove and Major McOalU, who have done so much to ferret out the rascal ity, are able to point ont the locality of a Tory large amount of property rightfully belonging; to the State—much of which can be secured anc saved. Tbe Thomaston Herald, of yesterday, learns from reliable authority that Swift, Hamburger 4 Go. had on yesterday morning, the misfortune to get one of their factories burned down. It ia the upper factory, known as the old Wayn- manville Factory. We have not been able to obtain the particulars as to loss of property or eana by which the burning was caused. The Lx Grange Reporter of Friday boa the following: Cumso Scrum.—Our town was somewhat excited on last Tnesday night by the cutting of Miles Thorpe by Reese Morgan, both oolored. From tbe facts that we can gather, it seems that Reesa Morgan was drunk, and Miles Thorpe had been summoned by the marshal to arrest him, which they proceeded to do, when Reese Morgan drew his knife and plunged it to the bilt in Miles Tbarpe, causing his intestines to protrude abont eiebt inches. Our fellow towns man, Mr. John N. Cooper, was also cat by Reese daring the melee, bat only very slightly. Reese was carried to jail, where he is now awaiting the action of the authorities. Miles Tbarpe is now lying in a very critical situation. He was a hard working colored man and wss deal of by bnilt a fence five or six milea in length, along the snromir or the mountains, thus excluding the plaintiff's cattle and horses from range, in which the plaintiff claimed by prescrip tion, or enstonx, the right of “oommon of pas ture," and this action was brought to recover damages for an interference with this right by building tbe fenoe. The defendant demurred to the declaration on the ground that no right of eommon existed in this State. The court over ruled the demurrer, and tbe esse was submitted to the jury on ita merits, who returned a ver dict for tbe plaintiff. The defendant made a motion for a new trial, and the case will proba bly be earned to the Supreme Court, for final adjudication. How Shall the Nomination lor Got- er.ior be Made? Editort Telegraph and Matenger ; We have a rumor from Atlanta that a large number of tbe members of the Legislature favor making a nomination fbr Governor by that body. The pretext is ibat there is not time to call a con vention. Now, as a Democrat, and one who as sisted actively and serviceably in returning a Democratic Legislature, I concur in tbe views of your Atlanta correspondent and enter my protest, and I think latter the sentiment of the people in saying that such a nomination will be restated, either by a convention nomination or people’s candidate. The executive committee can meet as early as Wednesday next and order a convention in 15 days, and fifteen days' canvass is quite long enongh under existing circumstances. I have faith in the wisdom and patriotism of the Legislature in legislating, but not in tbe log-rolling end combination system of select ing candidate s for office. It is easier to cor rupt or mislead one or two hundred men than a hundred thonsand, and assuming that the mem bers of the Legislature are no better men than the average of those who sent them there, it is unsafe to trust so small a body with the impor tant matter of selecting a Governor at this cri sta. Tbe people want a convention, and a con vention they will have, or tbey will run a candi date of their own. One or tbe People. NEW ADVERTISEMENTS | Valuable Property for Sale.
