Telegraph & Messenger. SUNDAY MORNING. NOV. 26. 1S71. Ont Upon Him. Tbe Atlanta New Ere, the organ of Conley’* ruurpation; in an article upon “Martial Law for Georgia and Floridia," my*: For the aame reason, some of the ablest and beat men in the State, of both political parties, bare begged the present Legislature not to re peat the madnees and foil; of 18G8. Nothing can be gained by extreme or rerointionary measures at this time. On the contrary, we hare everything to lose by It. Hence, as matter of expediency alone, leering wholly ont of the question the UDconstitutionality and revolutionary eharacier of the proceeding, bad hoped that an ime would not be fo with the constituted Executive of the State, by that aame rabid and rerointionary element which made the iasne in 1868—an iaanc which lead to Federal interference with the local affairs of the State. And now, in the name of the commercial and material interest* of the State, to aay nothing of the moral turpitude of the thing, those men in Georgia who think more of the interest of the commonwealth than of party, protest against a farther contiaasnoa of this madness. If the late Governor Bailoek could only have gained his own consent to remain In Georgia and join the aame protest against the “madam*" of any inqniry into his official sets, when the State was (hrealeacd with martial law, Conley' usurpation would never have occurred. Let the organ take this view of the case and weep over tbs indiscretion of Ballock; or if he nn del-stands the facts of the case differently, let him explain to the people whether this wss not aome niee arrangement between Bollock and Cooley to bring martial law upon Georgia—the one operating in Washington and the other in Georgia for the same end—Bollock afraid remain and Conley unable to keep his seat with out the essential prop of Foderal bayonets What a striking Illustration of insubordination and disloyalty! And it is the aamo all over tho Sontb. Tbe people will not lie still and be skinned. They will resist robbery and violations of the law. See in what trouble the Carolines are, and how the gentle Sco t complains of their turbulence. No doubt with Conley and the Era, Poott oonld weep tears of blood over the “madness'' of the people in preventing him from pocketing ten or fifteen millions of bonds. So it is with Bted and Wsrmontb. They sro certain the people need martial law, and wondor why, in the face of their danger from Grant, they should not anbmit without question to (Uying. All of these men show llieir appreciation of Grant wheu they make bis administration a bug-bear to compel tbe people to submit to fraud and usur pation on pain t.f persecution by tbe Foderal Government. Bnt, nevertheless, on so plain point as llte right of the people to fi'.l this gnbernatiunal vacancy tho |>eop!e of Georgia will do their duly, and let tbe administration take what stunt it may. I'nury— Important to t'oiiiinlsslon ,Merchant*. The Savannah Republican, of Friday, notes the decision, on Wednesday, in tbe United States Court now sitting in that city, of a esse which involves some rr suits very important to ooaniission merchants. Tho snit was in favor of a New York firm sgsinst two fanners of Snmter county, Georgia. The former bad ad vanced about tin,(HIO, in 1866, for the latter, and pnrehaard for them 100 balos of cotton, Tbe oontnet was that tbe defendants were to pay tbreo-qnartiiriof one per cent commission, and six per cent, interest on tbe advance, as long as the cotton was held. It wss to be sold only upon the older of tbe parties owning it Under this eontraot the cotton was held eight months. L ko all other eontraots of a similar nature in the year 1860, when cotton was held over, there was n heavy loss, amounting to over $1,G00. Tho defendants gave their note for tbe amonnt, bnt afterward refused to pay it, and upon snit brought phi.nl n-iiry. The Judge charged the jnry that, if this contract for commissions wss msdc to evsde the usury statutes of Georgia, then the policy of the law forbade ita execution; bnt if the agreement was made to pay tbe legal interest and a commission to the faotor, for each month, for his care, dtligenoe, labor and at tention expended in the business of defen dants, it was propor they should find for the plaintiff. Tbe jury were ont bnt a tow mo ments when they returned a verdict for tbe plaintiff for (he full amonnt of principal and interest. The parties were K. T. Wilson vs. James T. West and Philip West. K. K. Hines for plain tiff, and Harden Jr Levy for defendant. Sens Item*. Cotton was very strong in Liverpool yester day, with sales of '.’0,000 bales in the morning, and an advance of sa eighth. There was about an eighth of a cent advance in New York. Mxxtot —Tbe Jnariat forces are reported to have been whipped in Durango, by tho Revolu tionists. Wa expeet yet to see J uarez punished for bis merciless butchery of Maxmillisn. Suaxnrn. —Somebody has got a bill before the Legislature making slander a criminal offenae. Wc hope the Legislature will defeat that measure. Pax ov Mootnims —Tbe House of Represen tatives on Tuesday passed a bill, fixing the pay of presiding officers at $10 per day, and of Members and Senators at $0 per day. The vote on tbe final adoption, was yeas—104, nays 27. Ths Exousn Mi-sion.—'Tbs New York Mail, of Thursday, says it is quite likely that Gen. Bohonck has decided to terminate his mission to England and aooopt the position of law officer to the North Pacific Railroad Company, whioh it it understood is kept open for him. Uauuso —The Hon. G. W. Woodward, a Democratic member of Congress, from Penn sylvania, and who will be remembered as a Tiaitor at the State Fair, held bore in 1809, married last Thursday, to Mrs. E H. MoAlis. ter, of Lexington, Ky. Public Enceanos in Auidaxa.—Colonel Joseph Hodgson, Superintendent of Pobiio Instruction, in Alabama, in bis address to the Board of Education, says that ths coet of ad ministering the department this year, is less than last year, and the pupil* bare in- created from 52,000 to 107,000. Quxxn Victoiua has left her retirement at Btlmoral, and arrived at Windsor Castle on Friday. Thia is a formal announcement of re covered health, and a ganuCet of defianoe lo the poUiioisns who aay that she is physically and mentally iootpacitated for pnblio administra tion. Tex Usuar Laws —Mr. Nutting, of this county, introduced a bill last Thundsy in rela tion to rates of interest. Wa presume it leavi the prioe of money to be fixej by the eontraot and establishes a legal rate only in oases where none is agreed upon. If these are tbe pro visions of ths bill we hope it will pass. T«« State Conviction.—A correspondent of the Constitution thinks that a Democratic btate Convention cannot be gathered by the bth December. The notice is short, bnt it has beeu distributed by telegram to all points reachsd by the wires, and we apptehtnd that tbe difficulty will be found mere apparent than real. But let the people everywhere art with energy and decision. “An lfroc Falias," considering the late Con vention and its constituency unjustly assailed by an article in the last Southern Christian Ad vocate insists that he ought to have a hearing in this Sunday edition of tho TELaoxars, be cause tbe church is without a newspaper organ in this aeotioo of Georgia. We admit the com munication with some doubt as to the propriety of doing so, and certainly with no idea of going talo Polem ct either by oumdvea or through other*. Koa» Law Fob Bum Oocstt.—Mr. Batten on Friday, introduced into the Houee a bill to alter tbe rwd law, „f the State so far SB they rotate to Bibb ooom, Wc pvc„ma this bill is BubstBoU.ll, tb» earns „ ^ , rtod the Grand Jnry ot B.M, *K,nt i„o by Dr. M S Thomson, end urged by the Grand Jnry ou tbe attention of tbe Logidau:ro. It provides for a tax on wagons, carriages, bones acd mules, and the keeping of the roads ,-n repair throughout tho year by contract. TIIE GEORGIA. FBBM. Tbe Quitman Banner bas this to say, under the head of “speech-making: It is said that Hon. Thomas M. Norwood, in acknowledging his appreciation of the compli ment paid him in his election as United States Senator, said that “speech-miking, letter- wriUng, and newspaper articles bad been the bane ot the Sontb, and asserted his intenUon to avoid speech-making." There may be conside rable truth in this remark, bnt we trust that the Senator elect, if he should obtain his seat, will so ftr depart from his present “intention,” as to resort fo “speech-making” whenever found necessary for the vindication of the honor or interest of bis State. It is for this he bas been honored with the position of United States Senator. Tbe epienres of Gainesville are licking their chops over beer meat steaks, and lustily calling for more. Bev. B. Kirbey, of Towns oonnly, is truly an enviable man. He was born in 1792, mar ried in 1819, baa thirteen living children, and one fanndred and twelve direct descendants— children, grand, and great grand children. Mr. Barksdale, an old citizen of Talbot coun ty, died last Monday, aged 84 years. Tbe po tato crop of Talbot ia very huge, thia year. The boiler of the Empire Oil Company's works, at Columbus, exploded Thursday after noon, slightly injnring one person. The lorn ia about $1,000. * Tho Columbus Sun, of Friday, says: The Mobile and Gibabd Baxlboad.—The Mobile and Girard Railroad, we expeet, will be leased to the Central at the rate of 2} per cent, per annum for old, or 5 per cent, for scaled stock. We believe, also, that if the road is sold it will be purchased by our own citizens. Steps towards that end have been taken and tbe means seenred. Tbe property wilt not be sacrificed. Tbe total registered vote of Columbus, ia 1,43."—divided aa follows: Whites, 932; blacks 503. The municipal election takes place on the 9th prox The German, named Brnnn, whose injury from being run over by a wagon, at Angnsta, on Wednesday, we have heretofore noticed, died Thursday morning. From what tho Chronicle says, he most have been born under an nnincky star; He entered the hospital here some time ago, when sick, and when he was nearly well ven tured ont of the building. He had not gone far before he was attacked by a ferocious dog and badly bitten. Thia necessitated a return to the hospital, where he remained nntil Wed- needay, when be was discharged. He had walked about three squares, when a runaway bone knocked him down and inflieled a mortal injury. John Crompton and Charles Denham had a face slapping, head whacking, and pistol shoot ing match, on Broad street, Angnsta, Thursday night, which resnlted in Crompton's losing some claret, and Denham's being placed under $500 bond to answer s charge of sasanlt with intent to kill. An accident on tbe Charlotte, Columbia and Augusta Railroad, on Wednesday, about five miles from the latter city, resnlted in badly damaging two cars, and giving the passengers a thorough shaking up. Mr. John T. Kirk, originally from Sooth Car olina, but now of Kansas, while on his way to revisit bis old home st Chester, was swindled ont of $210, st Angnsta, last Wednesday night. It was tbe old story. Gentlemanly appearing stranger accosted him—gave Masonic sigoal— said be was from Kansas City and was also on bis way to Chester, S. 0.—then a man claiming to be railroad freight agent came in and de manded of stranger $240 to pay charges on a car load of goods attached to the train—stranger had only $30 in bis pocket-book—asked Kirk to loan bim $210, which Kirk did, tho latter taking a check for $1,400 on the Mechanics’ B.mk of Kansas City as security—train started and stranger said he wonld go and look after his baggage, whioh he did—perhaps, bnt which he didn't come back, and so Kirk tore bis hair and rushed for tbe police, bnt all to no purpose. Tbe cane crop of Southwestern Georgia ia re ported to be very fine this season. The Albany News moat ions a stalk nine feel long, and which had twenty well matured joints. Wo olip these items from the same paper: Hettuno Ur.—We are pleased to learn that the planters of this section are determined to square accounts. MsDy of them have foiled to make cotton enough to psy ont, bnt they are nnwilling to straggle under the inenbns of debt any longer, and are turning over males and other propeify in liquidation of daims against them. Tbe present outlook indieates a great redaction in l be ootton acreage next year. The system cf advsnees and liens on crops will be, in a great measure, abandoned and the more sensible policy adopted of circnmsoribing plant ing within the limits of available means. The Cotton Cr.or—Onr planters orr just now anxiously awaiting tho effect of the frost and sanahine on the uomstared frait. There is aa immense crop of bolls, from tbe size of ehinqaapia to fall grown, and the anxiety about any of them opening is intense. They were green and growing when the cold weather set in, and it is questionable whether the nearly matured fruit will open. A few days will decide the matter. Tbe crop relied on is nearly gath ered, and does not exceed half the yidd planted for. The Savannah Advertiser, of Friday, says that tho Jockey Clab of that city, at a meeting held tbe day before, passed a resolution ruling ont of all tho races upon tho traok of the Indus trial Association, this season, John A. Cam bora and Wm. H. Boyce, and ail horses n: <1 their control.

An accomplice slipped in at the aide door on Brood street and entered into the vault. Fortunately the book keeper discovered before tbe robber had effected his purpose, and gave the alarm. Tbe parties fled. Messrs. Jones and Willingham offer the La- Grange Reporter for sale.

While there should bo no Rtction;.l spirit or candy i candy i Mr. Louis Grevomberg has about twenty-one field hands at work on the share systsm on the west side of tho Teche, in the parish of St. Mary, all of them white men, and they will make over ten hogsheads of sugar and fifteen barrels of molasses to the hand this year, be tides corn enough for their own use. They raise chickens to sell, sell eggs, vegeta bles and other things—nearly enough to pay their own accounts. The twelve white families on his piaoe have this year bought two barrels of pork, about 200 pounds of bacon, about thirty-six barrels of flour, and coffee and salt. They famish their own teams, which they keep fat and strong, and they give Mr. Grevem- berg very little tronble. They work in the field every month in the year, and their doctor’s bills do not amount to more than a dollar a head yearly for each member of their families. They are thrifty and some of the families will, in a few years, have money enough to bny homes of their own. Twelve white families will cultivate Mr. Gre- vemberg's lands on shares next year. He has declined to make contracts with abont twenty other white families who have applied to work- on the shore system. On the Delahoossaye plantation, in the AuLarge, there ore fifteen block acd white hands at work on shares. The plantation will this year make some money. Last year and year before lost they lost money with negro labor by the month. The hands this year will roll 128 arpents of plant cane, and 15 arpents of stubble. Mr. Fsy is building houses on his plantation for white laborers on the shore system. Mr. A. Sorrel is also building honses on the fine prairie between the Teche and Bayon Cypremort for the same purpose. Others are taking the share system and white labor into serious consideration. Mr. J. A Provost this year worked his own land, and mode eleven and a half hogsheads of sugar, and about fifteen barrels of molasses. He also makes four hogsheads of sugar from sugar made on his place on shares, making over eighteen hogsheads of sugar and twenty-seven barrels of molasses for Iris year’s work clear. He spent but little money in making his crop. His extra work cost him bnt twenty.four dollars. He pnt np eight arpents of seed cane, and has thirty seres of stnbble. Dr. Bnssy sent to the New Orleans German Immigrant Society last spring for white labor ers. They sent him fifteen hands. They worked the crop through June, and till laid by in July, did well, were not sick more than the negroes, worked side by side with the negroes in the field, the negroes working better than when working by themselves. Dr. Bossy says he could not have made his orop without these white men, and will never attempt to make a crop without white laborers. Ho says that white labor will come, and must boused. He has about fifty white men at work in sugar making. Dn. Gbeelet's Advice to a Scientific Col- obzd Gentleman.—Wo were sitting with Horace one afternoon in that little disreputable sanc tum of his adjoining the counting-room of the Tribnne. The old gentleman was in one of his chroma conditions of grumble and discontent He had that mealy appearance, so common to him, that made him resemble a blonde miller fresh from the dost of his flour mill, and was expressing his private opinion in a pnblio and somewhat profane way, when a colored gentle man was announced. “Let him coma in,” roared the philosopher, and an aged darky clad in broadcloth, gold rimmed spectacles, and a cone, headed with the some precious metal, stalked in. “Mister Groeley, I believe?” he inquired. “Yes, I’m Mister Greeley; what do you want ?” was the gruff response. “Well, ssh,” said old Ebony Specs, seating himself ns he deposited his hat and cane on the floor—“ Well, sab, I’ve been flunkin' that onr race don’t pay ennff attention to scientific pursuits, Bah.” We saw the clond gather on the intellectual countenance of the great journalistic Bohe mian. It broke in thunder at that point. In a voice wherein were blended the shrill tones of s historical woman and the growl of s tiger, he exclaimed: Scientific pursuits! yon d—d old fool; yon want a hoe handle and patch of New Jersey— that’s the scientific pursuit you want Get ont.”—Don Piatt's Capital.
