By direction of the State Democratic Execu tive Committee. Curroan Awnnaaox, Chairman. Tito "Folly of Bolstering wp Cotton.’’ We fee copied into tbe Charleeton Courier of Tuesday, a couple of articles showing what one of them calls “Ida follg of keeping the cotton market artificially bolstered up.” One of these la from Memphis to the Journal of Commence, dated November Glfc, and la eloquent about the top crop which la ao prodigious, that estimates have risen in oonaequenoe, from 2,700,000 to three aud a half millions of bales, and what is more wonderful still—plenten are getting thir ty-taro to .thirty-five pounds of lint from tho hundred pounds of seed ootton, against twenty- six to twenty-eight pounds last yesr. The cor respondent ssys the general estimate of the crop to Sopor oent less than last year, bnt every body says Ajj own crop will bo good—leaving the plain inferenoe that only his neighbor's crops will ran short at all—and some overran. Tho next article la from the Now York Eren- ing Post, and deplores the folly of planter*, speculators and factors in “keeping the cotton market artifistaMy bolstered up." Wo trust those parties will see and confess their sins at once, and by way of reparation atraitway knock out those artificial props and bolsters and let the thing oome down to a satisfactory level. The Post says the crop will be 8,750,000 bales, and high prioea will hurry East India cotton to market through the Sue* Canal till European manufacturers will become quite independent of American supplies, and thoroughly dis- gnnUd. Wo note these articles in order to follow suit with the Courier and eoaro plant ora into hurry ing what little Is left of their eropa forward be fore it beoomea utterly worthless on their hands, in order that they may aell off tbe remnant for eleven to thirteen eenta, and permit the specu lators to pass it over to consumers with all cus tomary grace and margin. To buy in the South at 12) and sell in New York or Liverpool for 25 la a thing settled by precedent to be due to tbe oiddiemen, and the criminal folly and madness of people who interfere with this arrangement by adviee, counsel or co-operation cannot be too much depreoated by the Southern prints. It is a clear flying into the fsee of P.-ovidenee. It is a apeeles of Ku -klnx rebellion which ought to bo punished by martial law, a known and effi- coeions remedy in these days for all injastieo and wrong doing in polities or finance. Let •very planter abjure this folly—and hold on to his ootton till be gets ready to sell it. Wo have given him warning. Let him see his danger. When these journals quoted by the Courier raised their “warning voice" on the Cth instant, middlings were 18} eenta in New York, and now at tbia lima of writing they are only 19 eenta. Don't yon see the folly of “Matering upt" Tima bagivlog—No l*n|ier To-morrow. Combined authority, State and National’ having decreed a religions fostival to-day, onr offioe will he closed, and no paper be manufac tured for to-morrow morning. The next iasne will be on Saturday. Meanwhile let ns main tain a cheerfnl oompoanre and grateful hearts, that affairs are no wone with ns than they are. Borne Old Grumbler will ask—bow oonld they be worse? Shot np, yon old Turk, and we will tell yon. If yon were in one of those North western States—with yonr shops, mills, honae, fnraitnre, clothing, provisions, all burnt np— half of yonr family destroyed, and yon with your hair singed off—yonr right arm burnt to a crisp—yonr back in a blister, and lying on the snow without blankets and the mercury thirty degrees below ssro, yon wonld be in a worse condition than yon are now. A Sr Asian Wab Bchi>lx appears to have been blown from Grant's pipe yesterday. A cabinet meeting was ealled, and a teat demanded of Robeson's iron pots which wonld stand salt water. Grant langhed at the pitiful array, not withstanding more ia spent on the navy in one yesr, now-a-days, than nsed to be spent on it in three, some yean ago. Nevertheless they pioked ont a few of the least maty and sent them down to scare the Spaniards, if they Boat, or the crabs if they go to the bottom. P. S. One of tbe conditions of “a continued good un derstanding with the beat government the world ever haw” is understood to be a boons lo the administration of 50,000 regalias free of export daty. Something, too, was said abont brandy; bnt tbe President wisely remarked that Spanish brandy was poor stuff—far inferior to St. Lonia copper distilled, to say nothing abont tbe Frenob stores laid in by “my friend Murphy,” which are as yet far from exhausted. When Fish heard that, he said he withdrew the suggestion; bnt •till, in his judgment, supplies should be kept np to the swimming point. To Taxi a Rxcass.—We learn from a special to the Chronicle and Ssutmel of Tuesday, that the Demooratio legislative cancas at Atlanta the night before, after a prolonged discus sion of the qneetton of adjournment, adopted by a vote or 44 to 39. a r(eolation to take a re eeaa on the 5th of Draember, to the 17th of January, and then to meet to inaugurate the Governor and wind np the unfinished busi ness—members to reeeivo no per diem daring the reoeee, or mileage for going or returning. We did not see any mention of this motion in the Atlanta papers of Tuesday, bnt take it for granted it is correctly stated. And wa offer onr congratulations upon the very tonnd and patriotie view taken by tbe members of the per diem and mileage questions. Tax Tana Onion* or ia Great Fix*.—A Chicago dispatch of tbe 25th nit, says that from evidunoe taken before the Fire Commis sioners the day before, it was ascertained that Mrs. O'Leary's cow was the cause of the great fire, although that lady had no more responsi bility in the matter than was afforded by her ownership in the oow. It appears that her friend and oo-tenant, McLaughlin, the fiddler, had a social time that evening, and wishing to cook a faw oysters for the social crowd, and be ing short of milk, went for Mrs. O'Leary’s oow, and while engaged in surreptitiously obtaining the lacteal fluid from the butte, she became in dignant at their dishonest practices and kicked over the lamp, hence the great conflagration. TnoMAixun.—Mr. McMichael, of the Thom- •ston Herald, was in the office yesterday, and we were gratified to learn from him that Thom- aston ia improving with unexampled rapidity. Numerous valuable business houses and dwel lings are in oonne of construction—town prop erty improving la value and the business of tbe ptaoe remarkably activt. We are gUd to hear aneb accounts from this good old county of Cp- ■on—one of the best and most salubrious coun ties in Georgia. Am InrAXaras Road.—We have been re quested to sell attention to a part of the Oo~ Iambus Ro,d between Jonathan Virgin's tho Godfre- pis or, which ia now said to be lm. passable sr d daily shutting off cotton and traffio from Macon. M.nrn—The accounts from Mexico are more stirring to-d«y. An important battlo between tho Government iroopa and the Insurgents near Tue cnbernntoriai Eieciion. General Assembly of Georgia. Hon. A. O. Bacon’s speech on the Veto is a clear and irrefutable presentation of the There ia no question on the subject other than what can be raised by more purblind self-inter est. Tbe ten commandments are not more pre cise and un mis take at la than the Constitution on this point; and so is tbe line of public duly. We most follow it ont, calmly and temperately, and if Federal authority be interposed to act at nangbt the authority of the Oani.titution and the rigbta of tho people, let it be so. It will add one more and the worst to the illustrations of a rampant, law-defying Federal tyranny which are now beginning to alarm and arouse the people in every part of tho Union. We propose simply to follow ont to the letter the rights and reme dies provided by law—ao far as the Federal sd- ministration permit* ns to do so. In relation to candidates before tbe nomina ting convention, rnmor names Gen. Wofford, Speaker J. Milton Smith, and Colonel Herbert Fielder as the most prominent candidates. Hid we any disposition to back either against the others, it wonld perhaps be unfair to use a journal of the circulation and inflnenoe of the Txx-xoxapx for that purpose. Onr correspon dents are wanning np in their behalf, and we prist to-day a firry denunciation of ex-Governor Brown, who ia charged with holding an impor tant controlling influence on the question of selection. We say, in all truth and candor, if ex-Govemor Brown is seeking to oontrol Demo cratic counsels on this or any other point, we have no evidence of tbo fact in poaussion. Let every candidate stand upon his own merits and claims, and 1st ns have a fair nomination. If tbs Tele-i rapn were going to advocate either, the writer would be tempted to strike a blow for tbe great Southwest in this controversy, a sec tion which bss never yet been honored with a gubernatorial nomination, and which we are informed will unite in presenting CoL Fielder— a candidate who does them honor in respect to every qnalifieation for the office. Bat we will not enlist for any candidate. We bid all a fair -i...— an a a tilt in true knightly honor and eonrtesy. Whoever is nominated, will, no donbt, ran without opposition—in the first plaoe, because be coaid not be beaten, and secondly because Conley's role is to contest the election as un constitutional. Under ordinary circunstanees an election without a contest would bring ont few vote*. Bnt here let the people reverse all precedent and poll as large a vote as possible. Tbe failure to vote will be plead as an absence of popular sanction to tbe election, and efforda new pretenoe for disregarding it Let the peo ple torn ont, therefore, and inaugurate tbe Era of Reform, Pablie Accountability and Official Integrity in Georgia with tbeir fullest sanction. Montgomery Illair on llte Sllnutlon. Tbe Herald has interviewed Montgomery Blair, Postmaster General nnder Lincoln, on the po litical situation. Blair says there has been no national element in polities for ten years—that they era now nothing bnt sectional domination, under which tbe Sonthern States are sinking into the oondition of Ireland, and pnblio men are degenerating into “commercial adventurers. That is piiby and tree. He says that Lincoln was apprehensive of just such s state of affairs Grant is nothing bnt a soldier and his idea of government is simply that of a osrnp. He ia no Republican at heart and caroa only for power. Blair says he was in favor of offering Grant the Demoentie nomination in 1868, and Grant would have taken it, if be had not been anre of tbe Republican nomination. Grant coquetted with him and fooled him. But he has fooled the representative Republicans still worse—tamed his back on them all in favor of nobodies wbo represent nothing. Blair ssys Grant is an ig norant man, wbo never takes any pains to in form himself, or aceept information from others. He boasted to Blair that bo did not know any thing abont books, and “had never read a book in hit life.” As to his chance for re election, (says Blair) Grant is very strong; has a mysterious bold on PROCEEDINGS OF WEDNESDAY.

This bill provides for the establishment of two agricnltorel colleges, one at Deblonegs, the other st Mi'ledgeville. in pnnnani e of the set of Congress donating 270.000 seres as a foun dation for the schools, and constitutes tbo re spective presidents of tbe colleges, with the Executive Committee of tbe State Agricultural Society, a board for the selection, care and dis posal of the lands so granted. Mr. Brnton offered as s substitute, s bill whieb makes the Georgia State Board of Edu cation, as now constitutes the Board for the care and selection of these lands, and that this Board shall report to the General Assembly,srith whieb the final disposition of tbo lands shall re main. Mr. Clark said the benefit of the bill ought to be enjoyed in common by both races ana con tended that Congress designed tbe donation for the benefit of all citizens Indiscriminately. Campbell offered an amendment: Always provided tbe benefits of tbe fond shall be divi ded equally between all students, without regard to raoe, color or previous oondition. Mr. Brown offered an amendment to the sub stitute, appointing the Governor, President of the Senate, Speaker of the House, Presidents of the Agricultural Colleges, and Hon. E. Stead man, as a board for the purposes indicated by the bill. Mr. Hinton spoke in favor of the snbatitnto of Mr. Brnton on the ground that the fund should first be received and made subject to the control of the State before it is disposed of.

Messrs. Bryan sod McMillan thought it nn- beooming in this great Stale to send men to Washington to lobby a measure through. They favored leaving the matter in the hands of onr Representatives there. Messrs. Jackson and W iff .rd, of B irtow, did not think that these parties were to art as lob byists, bnt that, owing to tbe magnitude and importance of the work, all available manoeuvres for its success should be adopted. Mr. Griffin, of Houston, also advocated the adoption of the resolution, and explained some of the great advantages to be derived from tbe He has also a bold on the Methodists. He thinks Bishop Simpson the greatest man in the world, and tbe Methodists, being somewhat sec tarian, have abont the same opinion of Grant. He ia a protectionist, and all tbs tariff men go for him. He is a jobber, and tbe railroad mon opolies support him. He appeals directly to the selfish Interests of man. The National banks and office-holders go for him. Tbe real Republican party is against him. He hss snub bed and denounced them, and they are his most formidable opponents. As to what ought to be done, Blair gives the following counsel: There most be some sacrifices made to de feat Grant. Tbe Demooratio party is taunted srith sectionalism, and this foot alone ahonld keep it, aa an organization, ont of the next Presidential canvass. The war spirit is not dead yet, and this name alone is hated enough to manufacture hundreds of thousands of Radical votes at s day’s notice. This sectional clamor is a thing that most be killed now. It trill always be forced into exis- tenoe in the presence of what haa popularly oome to be known as the Sonthern party. Let the Democratic party, as an organization, stand back, and let the field be kept clear to the dis affected and independent Republicans. The Missouri programme suits me. There the Radicals were defeated through this kind of co operation. Let the Radicals call tbeir conven tion and sofuinste Grant, and then let the in- dependent Repnblieans bolt and nominate who ever they please and then the Democrats tally to his support. The Democrats are fast coming np to this, have reason to know it has been nnder con sideration for abont a year, and meets with littis opposition. I met 8enator Cssserly yesterday. Hs warmly approves this polioy. Senator Stockton sands me word bo approves it. Bob Onld ana Wade Hampton advocate it. There are about half a dozen, either of whom wonld be a formidable anti-Grant can didate. My personal preference is for William Collen Bryant. Then there are Trambnll, Judge Davis, Gretz Brown, Senator Sumner, Jndge Ranney and eDSsexetary Cox, of Ohio, and in spite of his tariff proclivities, Mr. Greeley. The Germans wonld vote for a Demoorat be fore they wonld support Grant for snothsr term. Onr American people feel that they are over taxed, and that, too, in the interests of tbe mo nopolies. The revenue reform movement is one of great strength, particularly in tbe agri cultural districts It may be said to bold the balance of power, if it oonld only be ooneentra- ted. Then there is an increasing alarm at the encroachments of railroads. These oo lions in some esses own entire States. There Maryland, which is completely in tbe hands of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad. Although the Legislature there is Demoentie, this com pany sbsouliely dictates legislation, and buys and sella the members. Both Demoentie and Republican States are in tbe bands of these grasping and merciless corporations. The peo ple nerd a change t.f policy on this subject, and that can be guaranteed by neither of tbe exist ing parties. That wonld be a distinctive iasne to go before tbe people upon. I look at the newspapers as sore criterions to go by on this view. Newspaper men are proverbially shrewd, and never do anything without a purpose, or without feeling pietty aura of their ground. The press all over tbe oonntry is rebellious, and is demanding that party shack! ee be thrown off. of these papers, like the St Lonia Bepub- Cincinnati Enquirer, the Yolksbladt, the Weatiiek Poet, the Chicago Tribune, the Chicago Times and the New York World, although widely at vArianoe in politics, stiU breathe the uniform desire for reform.

The robbery has been traced to one Thomas Green, freed- man, wbo has made a confession of his guilt, restored nearly all the money,and also confessed other crimes committed previously.

Harris, the Savannah News man, should really be ashamed of such a whopper as tbe following: Squirrels are selling at ten cents a bushel in Rome. Being the owner of hair even more terrifically pink than his is no excuse for snch trifling with the truth. J. J. Clay, of Macon, and James Douglas, of Griffin, have letters held for postsge in the Sa vannah office. Mr. A. F. Bennett, aged 60 years, look the preminm of a handsome cane with a gold bead for “the best old gentleman equestrian” at the Savannah Fair on Monday; Mr. H. L.

On Monday afternoon an old gentleman named McKenzie, who was coming to Augusta on the Charlotte train, was swindled ont of $75 by cal Lie Stamped Ont. One of the current charges made by the pros tituted newspapers whose editors tick Grant’s boots and sustain him in all his infamous as saults upon the Democracy of the South, is one that tbe white people and so-called Kn-klni of npper Sooth Carolina have systematically shot, hung and scourged the negroes of that section in order to keep them from voting tho Radical ticket. This is all a lie, of oonrae, and so a cor respondent of the Herald, now in that section, has reoently taken tho pains to prove by Radi cal figures. He copies from tbe official State returns as printed at Colombia nnder the super vision of the Radical officials, and this is the way tho negroes have been “intimidatedIn 1868 the total Radical vote of Fairfield, Chester, Spartanburg, Union, York, and Lanrens dis tricts—where martial law now rales—was 7,835. In 1870 when all the “intimidation” was prac tised, it was 14,102. Now, how was it with tho Democratic vole in thore years in the same dis trusts. In 1868 they polled 10,290 votes; in 1870 9,894 votes. This wonld seem to fit the ‘•intimidation” boot on the other leg, as in these six rebellions and insurrectionary counties the Radical vote increased 6,267, while the Demo cratic vote decreased S95. Bat this is not tlL The correspondent shows that in 1870 there were over 1,600 more votes polled in these districts than there were voters —the excess ail going to the Radicals. In Lanrens district, for ins tan oe, there were 4,170 voters and 4,988 votes cast in 1870, the gain all being one way. The correspondent thus con cludes upon the intimidation hnmbug: The faot is here evident that neither the Ku- klnx nor anybody else intimidated the Radical voters in these “insurrectionary” counties. It was well known to the whites that any attempt at intimidation wonld be utterly futile. Had the Democrats any part in the counting of the vote* there would be some sense in trying to frighten;voters. Bat they are as nobody in the State. All the Election Commissioners are ap pointed by tbe Governor, and every mother’s son of them was a Radical. The returns show that gross frauds were perpetrated by the Radi cals. In Spartanburg county (which yon will perceive was carried by tbe Democracy) an at tempt waa made to put the Demooratio candi dates for the few offices stiU elective in the mi nority, by throwing ont a sufficient number of preoinota heavily Demooratio. Tbe rogues were canght and their rascally attempt defeated. W. H. Fleming, the Trial Jnstice, of whose exploits I have written yon, was one of the Eleotion Commissioners. When rebnked for this rascal ity he replied that he had been instructed by the State canvassers at Columbus to return the Radical candidates elected at all hazards. I do not mean to insinuate that the frauds in Chester, Fairfield and Lanrens counties were perpetrated by ST. ANDREWS SOCIETY.
