To tie People of i pper and Lower Geornia:
As TOO we aware, the Georgia State Agricul-
tnral Society will hold its next annual Fair at
thl* place, commencing on the 27lh day of Oc
tober.
Ererr tine Georgian ia Jastly proad of his
“•lire State—rich In minerals as it ia varied in
soil—wealthy, indeed, in all that should ooosti-
tnte a people prosperous and happy. Ws bare
here that diversity 0 r production and peculiar
adaptation of tha virions sections to the dif
ferent indoatrial pursuits which combine to
make np the na'nral element* sufficient for an
Enp re. In agrim'lnre, a* in everything else,
harmonious conceit of action atrengthens and
supports each atelir.n of the State. Lower
Georgia baa her pecoliar ioterest to foster and
protect and her great strength to boast of.
The same may be said of upper and middle
Georgia. The city of Macon occupies a grand
eowtral position geographically, and her eili-
aena have provided within her limits fair
grounds and equipments equal. If not superior,
to any in the United States, for the accommo
dation of visitors and for the exhibition of any
and every artiole which may be brought
here for show. The Executive Committee
and members of the State Agricultural Society
have eviuoed a determination to make this next
the great Fair of the State. The handsome and
libera! premium liat now being circulated
throughout the State speaks for itself. An ex-
amtn&tion of ils pages will convince every one
that tha Society means basinets. Bat ths
“ county displays” are looked forward to aa tbs
prominent and great leading feat ares of the Fair,
and will doobtleas present a grand panoramic
view of each county and section snob aa *,»■
never before been witnessed by the people of
Georgia. The purposes of this appeal are,
therefore, to invite and nrge every oounty in
the Btate, if possible, to be representedin some
way, so that we may have no blanks in the pic
ture. To do this is a plain, patriotic duty; a
duty which, if zealously performed, will con
duce to the prosperity and aneoeae of every
oounty in the State, without any regard what
ever as to which gets the $1000 premium of
fered. This premium will, of oonrae, go to the
oounty which shall famish tha “largest and
and finest display.” But, as will be seen by
refereooe to the premium list, there are three
other handsome premiums to be distributed
among other oounttes, as follows:
A premium of $500 to the county making the
seoond best display.
A premium of $300 lo tbe county making the
third best display; and
A premium of $200 to the county making the
fonrtn beat display.
There are now three prominent counties in
the State which are known to be bending and
concentrating all their vast powers and resour
ces upon this great contest—one in Upper Geor
gia, one in Middle Georgia, and one In South
western Georgia. Other coonties will report
progress, and (Dler the liat for competition at
the nut meeting of the Society, to be held in
Athens next month.
But while the foregoing county prizes are In
tended to represent tbe leading features of tbe
premium list, they are by no means the most
attractive. The city of Mnoon has united with
the society in the tlTort to present m list of re
wards that will not only please bnt actually
recompense the exhibitor for some labor and
expense. And among others which may be re
ferred to with pride and satisfaction, are the
following:

These are among the many premiums offered
by the oity of Maoon, and the State Agricultu
ral Society, aggregating in all more than $15,-
000. Bat it is not to the ?xIao of the promt-
urns that wo look for rewards. The exhibition
pro-'miftoo noblor result* than thi*. Tbere will
be a great moral tnflaonoe growing ont of it.
The politioai economist will here find food for
his thoanhts. The artisan will scan, with eagle
eye, the work of his peers. The thnfty firmer;
the enterprising merchant; tbe fowl fancier,
and the stock importer; the horticulturist.—all
will be entertained, pleased and instructed.
Here we will learn the sources of supply and
demand in car own Stain. Hero wo will learn
where, in our own State, each and every article
is produoed, raised or manufactured. Our peo
ple will here be taught where, in their own
eonntry, they may follow that pursuit best
suited to their interest and taste, without being
forced to hunt homes among strangers, as is
now too often the ease. Exhibitors from Upper
Georgia will beau find a market for the ready
sale of much, if not all, of their perishable ar
ticles at full, remunerative prioea. In addition
to all this, much general good most necessarily
grow ont of these annual reunions of so many
of tbe thinking and working men and women
of the eonntry. The spirit of State pride is
fanned into new life by these meetings, and
ws forget, aa it ware, our indvidtul misfor
tunes in rejoicing over our mutual suooeases.
Let us then devote one week in next
October to the very profitable work of
meeting and rtiannaaing the important ag
ricultural and commercial interests of the
day. Let it be a week devoted purely
to the explosion of false theories and
patting into practical operation the safe,
sound, business ideas of the times. Among
Other things, let ns prove, by the variety and
merits of oar exposition, tha great and absolute
danger and folly of looking to railroads, rivers
or ~"«i« for relief from “hard times." Let our
Fair in Ootober be the only argument adduced
by us to prove the utter fallacy of that grand
idea, that igaw fotuut, oalled cheap transport
ation, which has so suddenly beoome the all-
absorbing among menin search of relief.
For it may in lime—indeed, it baa already—be-
ooma a aariooa question with thoughtful, ob
serving men, whether we have not now too
mmfii transportation. Our seeming advantages
may sometimes beoome oor greatest misfortune.
That which is oft-times a convenience is not al
ways a bleming. It may beoome a vital neoee-
a tj fur us to inquire whether or not these im-
railroad lines—traversing sod corduroy-
las, as they do, our eoontry from mountain to
seaboard—are really feeding or absorbing ue?
That transportation which fosters and eneoor-
agsa oar improvidence while it depletes oar
may be the transportation least of all
agbdt wanted in this oountry. And the objee-
ggg sew an wrorndv urged against our railroad
— might not be entirely overcome by
l&aaa proposed water lines. It is not, however,
the practicability of thass grand for
reducing freights that wa most stop now
to oooud*—for no ~ matter how feasible
they may be, Georgia is is ia no
aondidoo to wait their completion. The emsr-
gaucy—bread—ia upon aa, and we mod go to
work, and go to work today. We mart tnek
oar boys, by precept and exempts, n>.» the
great virtue of life and tbe n r nnrtllj of tha
age is to be found in the truth of tha old T -H-
maxim, “Labor omnia vineU." The people of
Georgia should navar bo depandect upon any
lioe or any system of transportation for the
meat and the bread, the hay and tbe fertilizers
used upon their farms. Such a policy will
bankrupt and starve out any people in tbe
world. Show me the ww with a fat —e—ky -
boose and a wall filled barn, and I will show
you one wbo ia not affected by iow prieed oot
ton or high transportation. On the other hand,
point me to that farmer with a Iran A.
bouse sod an empty oorn-erib, and I wfll show
you a miserably poor and mistaken wretch,
whos« dependent and destitute condition oaa
never be reached by hlgh-prioed ootton, or re
lieved in any way Ly cheap transportation.
The truth la, wo have been betting our bottom
dollars so long on three fatal cards, culled
“credit,” “oottor," and “caterpillar,”
we now have nothing left us but our mulsa nwt
lauds; and in seven eases out of tea these are
pledged to some warehouse firm for supplies to
make this year's crop with. And yot, ia the
face of all this crouching poverty and embar
rassment, we learn from the newspapers of the
eoontry that more land is planted in ootton this
year than last, or eves any year since the war.
No wonder, then, that we should be crying ont
for mors transportation.
Fifteen years ago, when I first oommenoed
the produce business in Maerwi, my little orders
for grain and meat seldom went farther west
than tha fertile hills of Cherokee Georgia, and
tbe narrow valleys in Esat Tennessee. I had
time then to write and send letters for these
supplies and wait tha return of quotations be
fore buying. I, with other merchants, pur
chased there, at our leisure, all that was neoes-
sary to supply the wants of Middle and South
western Georgia. Now wo send onr immense
orders by telegrsphio wires to the dob fields and
broad plains of Illinois and Missouri; and if,
by any ehanoe or ill luck, a railroad bridge is
burned or a transfer boat is snnk and a little
blockade occurs en routes a panic ensues and a
meat, bread and hay famine at onoe threatens
every man and beast sonth of Chattanooga.
This ia out miserably poor and helpless condi
tion today—fearfnl and unreasonable as it may
appear to outsiders. Bat that annual deficiency
of fifty millions of bushels of grain In tha four
States of Georgia, Alabama, Florida and South
Carolina, commented upon so gravely by tbe
late Canal Convection in Atlanta, tells the whole
story. We have suddenly awakened, as it were,
from a deep sleep and discovered tbe nnwel-
ocme fact that we are a poor, thriftless non-
prodccing, all-consuming, dependant people.
And just so long aa the farmers and planters of
Georgia pursue their present mad policy of bay
ing fertilizers to make ootton to boy etna, bacon
and hay with, and then pay two per cent, a
mouth for money from April to November of
each year to ran this wild schedule, just so long
will they be pitiable beggars and borrowers at
the doors of transportation offloes and Georgia
shaving shops, provided a worse fate does not
speedily overtike them.
The truth is, the whole country has beoome
one oommon counting room and huge gambling
shop. What we onoe did with the axe and tbe
hoe, the plowshare and the reaping hook, we
now seek to jooompliali by strategy and chance,
credit and speculation. Aod we must, sooner
or later, corns back to first prinoiples or we
must perish. We have too many able-bodied
y oung meu in sbady places; too muoh tope cut'
ting and pin selling snd too liUlo ootton chop
ping and bay oaring; too many yard sticks
thrown aronnd loose on smooth-top counters
and not enongh hoe-handles and plow-Btooks;
too many law books end lager beer barrels In
proportion to the rail spluting and ditch dig
ging ; too mnch foolish fashion and foppery,
and not enough sledge-hammers and saw-horses
—in a wird, too much wholesale id'eneu.
Georgia has to-day, buried in the rich bosom
of her varied soil and precious mineral beds,
greater wealth and grander results Ih»n oan
ever be worked out by canal projects or
Congressional enterprises. And hoir is it to
be done ? Not by dreamy theories and myth
ical plans, t ut in talking corn instead of csnal
—in diversifying and developing our own vait
resources—in writing more about home effort
and less about foreign immigration—in plant
ing loss qotton aod manufacturing more yarns.
In this, and this only, lies the great seoret of
Georgia snooeas—agricultural as well as finan
cial and commercial. Ws are immensely rich in
ri'-ourccH bnt miserably poor in the handling of
them. What we want is work—honest, hard-
fisted, intelligent, well-directed toil,.labor and
application in developing and utilizing what we
have here at home rather than so many spas
modic efforts to bring from abroad that whioh
we should not buy. Oar poverty, like oor
pride, is the resnis of misapprehensions and
mistaken ideas of ourselves, of onr oountry
sDd of each other. Tbo abolition of slavery in
the Sonth has developed a vast world of sickly,
Hintimental, ltzy, indolent, stnpified, inert
and unapt population—a population of yonng
and middle-aged men, some of whom have
known better days. These men put on old
eiuio ,-ioib—hang aronnd dirty grogshops and
dingy hotels, smoko cheap Began and drink
mean whisky, affect old habits and anti-war
stylo, talk politics a little and curse destiny and
tree negroes more, fiet and fume over the re
mit of the late war, write and sign up mort
gage liens on their cotton crops before they are
planted, pay two per cent interest on money
for nine mouths in the year and then promise
to pay annually in the fall more money per acre
for couimeroial manures to scatter over their
lauds than some of them originally oost.
And, finally, when inattention to business and
general bad polioy and mismanagement have
brought them and their State to ths extremity
of desperation—when ruin and bankruptcy stare
ns all in tbe face—ws issue proclamations, oall
public meetings, invite distinguished gentlemen
from abroad to oome here and sympathize with
us. We meet in banquet bsUs, drink much oham-
pngne and ditcharge more gas over the great
and absorbing questions of csnal schemes, Con
gressional aid and oheap transportation, Jhan
was ever ex; end.d by onr forefathers in dis
cussing tbe Declaration of Amenoan Indepen
dence. Azd what does It avail? Will these
idle and extravagant demonstrations ever work
ont the great problem of Georgia independence?
No! Never until labor beoomes popular will
money get easy. Never, until wo feed fancy
less, and leam to fatten ohickens and hogs
more, will want disappear and plenty step in.
When these plain secrets of life shall have been
learned, when the wild mania for speonlation
shall have departed from our farm houses and
plantations, when our planters shall lexm from
experience to abandon Wall street brokers and
“ootton futures,” and come to deal more di-
reotly in (he productions of square little “spots”
of potatoes snd corn, when agriculture shall
beoome the ruling feature and controlling inter
est in onr State—then, and not until then, will
we beoome an independent, prosperous and
happy people. And we have here in Georgia
all tbe elements necessary to this great end.
Here God has blessed ns with everything essen
tial to the prosperity and growth of man or
beast, if ooly worked out. Everything, from
a chicken and a chum to a ootton field and a
ooal bed, from a ground pea patoh on the sand
hills to a gold mine in the monntaina. These
are among the rich, rare and mnltiplied resources
of Georgia; these constitute our strength, our
ref age and our power.
Think of it, farmers and planters of Middle
Georgia! Here we are, in the heart of tha
Empire State, the boasted owners of lands with
out stint, blessed with a climate and soil where
two crops of grain or two of potatoes, or ooe
each of pea vines and limy oan be successfully
grown on the samo land the same year, and yet
we go to Baltimore to buy guano to make a lit
tle cotton to sell in New Fork to get money to
bny hay, oats and oom away out in tha rich
States of Kentucky, Indiana, Illinois and Mis
souri. And just so long as we are tbe volunta
ry patrons of produoe detiers, heartless rings
and pampered monopolies, each as now own
and control, operate and direct onr only lines of
trade and transportation north, sonth and west,
just 90 long will we be fit subjects for lien-
diafta and homestead laws, mortgages and re
pudiation. The South must work out her own
independence. The remedy ia ours, If we will
only apply it Too often have we been beguil
ed by plausible aehrmea for great improve
ments and financial relief. Let us no longer be
lolled into a falsa security by any promises
which oan be made, outside of oor harvest
fields and hog pens, our bay palohes and oane
mills. It ia here we shall find it To this and
the State Agricultural Society throws open the
doors of her Exposition halls, offers her pro
minm lists to the public, and invites competi
tion from every section of the oountry.
It may sometimes suit tha interest of small
pdliticians to excite sectional antagonisms in tha
State; but do such petty jealousy is to be foand
in the heads and hearts of those engaged in tha
industrial pursuits. All are expected at ths
Fair in October. Macon unites with the State
Agricultural Society in a oordial invitation to
every county in the State to be represented. It
trill impart new life, vigor and energy to every
industry; it will dirtonrinste knowledge and
culture among tbe great mass as of the people;
it will kindle a lofty emulation among the work
ing classes; it will present one vaet field tor
testing theories and trying conclusions; it will
cement aa, aa a people, in the bonds of frater
nal onion, and none should be deterred from
fear of defeat—for the triumph of one will be
the triumph of all, and there will be no rejoicing
over any defeat.
From the ladies we expect much—yea, almost
everything. Without their kindly aid and han
diwork we shall have no Floral Hall, and with
out tha: pleasing feature in perfection the Fair
oan never be a grand imposes, The good women
of onr country saved ue here two yaare ego—
without their timely efforts the Fair of 1871
■sold have been an i nun man failure. Their
hearty oo operation now is all we want to insure
Let ns then unite in one mighty effort to
throw together, ia one oommon display, the
grand and aggregate specimen resources at onr
proud old commonwealth. Let it be each an
of oee pride and onr strength; such
an evidence of o«r skill and taste, our gates
and oor energy, and especially of ow lore foe
agrieeUare and onr home*, aa shall challenge,
in k ini blear, the competition of tha South,
while it exdteu the envy aod admiration of tbe
wcrli W. A. Herr,
Mayor of the oity of Maeon.
Maw the Ca«e filawds
The repudiation of the carpet-bag State debt
is agitated in North Carolina, and it would not
be surprising if a similar question was raised in
all of .the Southern States which have been
subjected to carpet-bag rule. While repudia
tion of just debts, or any breach of faith on
the part of a State or a nation, is not only most
dishonorable, but generally disastrous to its cit
izens, it is a question for argument whether
there would be any breach of, frith in repudia
ting a_debt like that which Ilolden saddled
upon North Carolina, or that wish which South
Carolina was burdened under Scott. Of the
methods of creating debt in the latter State, As
sistant Secretary Sawyer, one of the few honest
men sent to the Senate from the South soon af
ter the close of the war, b«a freely and openly
Mated that the State officers would buy the pas
sage of a hill by the Legislature of such an in
famous character that even a corrupt carpet-bag
Governor dare not sign it. The latter would
then veto it, and afterwards purchase its passage
over his veto ly the ignorant blacks who com
posed a majoritv of the Legislature, aDd who
neither comprehended the nature of the bill
they were passing, nor had any characters to
Rtlal A.1K UfO TMi
Were the parties who knowingly accepted
bonds issued oy such means innocent purcha
sers ? Did they not connive with the carpet
bag State officers to rob the States, and did
they not contribute a considerable portion of
their ill-gotten gains toward maintaining the
same style of robbing rascals in power ? Even
if the present holders of these State bonds are
innocent parties, ought they not first to cslt
upon those, from whom they*obtained them,
and who are morally in the position of endoi>
sen ? Did the people of the Southern States
ever authorize the contraction of these debts ?
Were they not contracted by dishonest men
from other States, who were forced as rulers
upon them by Federal bayonets, and sustained
tn authority by the samo military power ? Un
der a republican Government can a people be
bound by_ the acts of officers whom they had
no voice in electing, and whose acts they de
nounced as robberies at the time ?

Keylnza's Opium Test.
When Keying was sent down, almost with a
Viceroy’s powers, from Pekin to Canton, to in
vestigate the opium smugglings he began by in
vestigating the lives of .the Chinese merchants.
It is said that lie invited all the importers to a
magnificent dinner, and they attended it with
joy, greatly honored at the invitation. But
when it came time to go home they were po
litely informed that they were to spend the night
with their host. This was the civil way of
finding out how many could live without smok
ing opium. The next morning they found
that they were still kept in his palace for anoth
er festival. Nor when the next night came
were they released. Before long one after an
other surrendered. Thongh every man of
them knew that to confess that he was an opium
eater or opium-smoker was to sign his own death
warrant, still one by one the poor wretches had
to give in. They begged the Viceroy to give
them their opium, even if it were for the last
time. And so, before many days, he had proved
to his own satisfaction, by their confession, that
most of bis own countrymen who were engaged
in foreign trade were themselves victims of the
appetite which his government was trying to
suppress. The story shows what happens when
people have not complete control of tl
petite.

The proprietors avail themselves of the
loll in advertising to present their claims
again to the public. Nothing within the
range of our ability ia omitted to make
the Tileoraph and Messenger In all
its editions acceptable to the reader. As
a vehicle of the earliest newB on all cur

In point of circulation in the range of
the country trading with Macon, the dif
ferent editions of the paper are fsr be
yond competition. They literally per
vade the Central and Southwestern coun
ties of Georgia—addressing and inform
ing almost every merchant and house
hold.
No business man of Macon can afford
to he without the use of these columns
as an advertising medium. No one abroad
seeking a market for any commodity in
this region can intelligently dispense with
their aid in facilitating that object.
For successive generations these two
papers, united for the past three years in
one, have commanded this great field of
circulation, and their hold on the public
confidence has never been disturbed or
interrupted. We are to-day with a larger
cash paid circulation than ever before,
and we hope to go on increasing with the
progress of the country. We do not say
it is the “largest circulation,” but within
our proper field—where we can carry the
earliest news, it is beyond even approxi
mation by any other journal.
