THE dEUXCUIA STATE FAIR.
Major Hall’* Addrcm.
Matos's Omen. I
Macow, Jane 1,1873./
To tie People of Upper and Lemtr Georgia:
As yon are aware, the Georgia State Agricul
tural Society will bold ita next aonncl Fair at
this piece, commencing on the 27th day of Oc
tober.
Every tins Georgian is lastly proud of hi*
nitivo Stats—rich In minerals as it i* varied in
anil—wealthy, indeed, in all that abooki oonsti-
tute a_ people prosperous and happy. We have
here that diversity of prodnetion and peculiar
adaptation of the various aections to the dif
ferent industrial porsnila which eombioe to
make np the natoral elements anffieient for an
Empire. In agriculture, aa in everything else,
harmonious ooneert of action strengthens and
supports each section of the State. Lower
Georgia has her peculiar interest to fostar sod
protect end her great strength (o boast of.
The same may bo said of upper and middle
Georgia. The city of Maeon occupies a grand
conttal position geographically, and her citi
zens have provided within her limits fair
grounds and equipments equal, if not superior,
to any in the United States, for the accommo
dation of Traitor* and for the exhibition of any
and every article which may be brooght
here for show. The Executive Committee,
and members of the State Agricultural Society*
have eviooed a determination to make this next
the great Fair of the State. The handsome and
liberal premium list now being circulated
tbronghout the State speaks for itself. An ex
amination of tis pages will oonviooe every one
that the Society means basinets. Bat the
county displays'' are looked forward to as the
prominent and great leading features of the Fair,
and will doubtless present a grand panoramic
view of eaoh county and section each as has
never before been witnessed by the people of
Georgia. The porpoees of this appeel are,
therefore, to invito and nrge every county In
(be State, if possible, to be represented In some
wsy, so that we may have no blanks in the pie-
tnre. To do this is a plain, patriotic doty; a
doty which, if zealously performed, will oon-
dneo to the prosperity and success of every
oonnty in the State, without any regard what
ever as to which gets the 81000 premium of
fered. This premium will, of .ooorse, go to the
county which shall furnish the “largeat and
and finest display." Bat, aa will be seen by
reference to the premium list, there are three
other handsome premiums to be distributed
among other oonnties, as follows:
A premium of 8500 to the oonnty making the
second best display-
A preminm of 8000 to the county making the
third beat display; and
A preminm of $200 to the oonnty making the
fourth best display.
There are now three prominent counties in
the State which are known to bo bending and
concentrating all their vast powers and reaonr-
cea upon this great contest—one In Upper Geor
gia, one in Middle Georgia, and one in South
western Georgia. Other counties will report
progress, and enter the list for competition at
the next meeting cf the Society, to be held in
Athens next month.
Bat while the foregoing county prizes are in
tended to represent the leading features of the
preminm list, they are by no means the most
ai tractive. The city of Alaoon has united with
the society in the effort to present s list of re
wards that will net only ple»>« but aclnally
recompense the exhibitor f jr aouio labor and
expense. And among others which may be re
ferred to with pride and satisfaction, are the

These are among the many premiums offered
by the city of Maoon, and the State Agricultu
ral Society, aggregating in all more than 815,-
000. Bat it ts not to tho value of tho premi
ums that wo look for rewards. The exhibition
promises nobler results than this. There will
be a groat moral influence growing ont of it.
The political economist will hero find food for
his thoughts. Tho artisan will scan, with eagle
eye, tho work of his peers. The thrifty farmer;
the enterprising merchant; the fowl fancier,
and the stock importer; the horticulturist—alt
will be entertained, pleased and instructed.
Hero we will learn the sources of supply and
demand in onr own State. Here we will learn
where, in onr own State, each and every article
is produced, raised or mannfaetnred. Onr peo
ple will here be taught where, in their own
country, they may foUow that pursuit best
suited to their interest and taste, without being
foroed to hunt homes among strangers, as is
now too often the case. Exhibitors from Upper
Georgia will hero find a market for tho ready
sale of mush, if not all, of their perishable ar
ticles at full, remunerative prioes. In addition
to all this, much general good mast neoessanly
grow oat of these annual reunions of so many
of the thinkiDg and working men aqd women
of tho country. The spirit of State pride is
fanned into new Ufo by these meetings, and
we forget, as it were, onr indvidoal misfor
tunes in rejoicing over our mutual successes.
Let ns then devote one week in next
October to tho very profitable work of
meeting and discussing tbs important ag
ricultural and commercial interests of the
dav. Let it be a week devoted purely
to" the explosion of false theories and
nutting into practical operation the safe,
sound, business ideas of the times. Among
other things, let us prove, by tho variety and
merits cf our exposition, the great and absolute
dancer and folly of looking to railroads, rivers
or canals for relief from "nsrd trims. Let onr
Fair In October be the only argument adduced
by us to prove the utter fallacy of that grand
idea, that ij oil fatuus, called cheap transport
ation, which has 80 suddenly become the all-
absorbing theme among men in search of renef.
For it may in time—Indeed, it has already—be-
oome a serious question with thonghtlul, ob
serving men, whether we have not now too
much trails ports lion. Oor seeming advantages
may sometimes become cur gre&icst misfortune.
Tfcat "which is oft-times a convenience is not 'al
ways a blessing. It may beocme a vital neces
eity for ns to inquire whether or not these im
mense railroii uues—ttavcr s ;Lg alI corduroy'
ing, as they do, our country from mountain to
seaboard—are really feeding or absorbing ua ?
That transportation which fosters and enocur*
age* our improvidence while it depletes our
pocket*, may be the transportation least of ail
others wanted in this country. And the objec
tion* now *o strongly urged against our railroad
system* might not be entirely overcome by
these proposed water Linen. It U not, however
the practicability of these greed schemes for
reducing freights that we most stop now
consider—for no matter bow feasible
they may be. Georgia la is in no
condition to wait their completion. The emer
gency—bread—is upon ua, and we must go to
werk, and go to work to-day. We most teach
our boys, by precept sod extmple, that the
great virtue of life and the necessity of the
age is to be found in the truth of the old Latin
maxim, “ Labor omnia rincit.” The people of
Georgia should never be dependent upon any
line or any system of transportation for the
meat and the bread, the hay and the fertilizer*
used upon their farms. Each a policy will
bankrupt and starve ont any people in the
world. Show me the man with a fat smoke
house end a well filled barn, and I will show
yon one who ia not affected by low-prioed oot-
ton or high transportation. On the otherhsed,
mint me to that farmer with a lean smoke-
louae and an empty corn-crib, usd I trill show
yon a miserably poor and mistaken wretch,
whose dependent and destitute condition can
never be reached by high-priced ool ton, or re
lieved in any way by cheap transpoitation.
The truth is, we have been bitting our bottom
dollars so long on three fatal cards, called
‘credit,” “ooitov,” and "caterpillar," that
now have nothing left ns bnt onr mules and
lands; and in seven cases ont of ten these are
pledged to some warehouse firm for supplies to
make this year’s crop with. Aod jet, in the
face of all this crouching poverty and embar
rassment, we learn from the newspapers of the
country that more land is planted in cotton this
year than last, or even any year sinoe the war.
No wonder, then, that we should be crying ont
for more trampvrtation.
Fifteen years ago, when I first commenced
tbe produce business in Macon, my little orders
tor grain and meat seldom went farther west
than the fertile hills of Cherokee Georgia, and
the narrow valleys in East Tennessee. I had
time then to write and send letters for these
supplies and wait the retnrn of quotations be
fore baying. I, with other merchants, pur
chased there, st onr leisure, all that was neces.
nary to supply the wants of Middle and South
western Georgia. Now we send onr immense
orders by telegrsphio wires to the rich fields and
broad plains of Illinois snd Missouri; and if,
by any cbanco or ill lack, a railroad bridge is
burned or a transfer boat is suck and a little
blockade occurs en route, a panic ensues and a
meat, bread and hay famine at once threatens
every man and beast south of Chattanooga.
This is oor miserably poor and helpless condi
tion to-day—fearfnl and unreasonable as it may
appear to outsiders. But that annual deficiency
of fifty millions of boshels of grain in the four
States of Georgia, Alabama, Florida and Songi
Carolina, commented upon so gravely by tbe
late Canal Convention in Atlanta, tells tbe whole
story. We have suddenly awakened, as it were,
from a deep sleep and discovered the unwel
come fact that we are a poor, thriftless non-
producing, all consuming, dependent people.
And just so long aa the farmers and planters of
Georgia porous their present mad policy of bay
ing fertilizers to make cotton to bay corn, bacon
and bsy with, and then pay two per cent, a
month for money from April to November of
each year to ran this wild schedale, just so long
will they be pitiable beggars and borrowers at
the doors of transportation offices and Georgia
shaving shops, provided a worse fate does not
speedily overtake them.
The troth is, the whole country has become
one common counting room and huge gambling
shop. What we once did with the axe aod the
hoe, the plowshare and the resping hook, we
now seek to accomplish by strategy and chanoe,
credit and speculation. And we mast, sooner
or later, come back to first principles or we
most perish. We have too many cble-bodied
yonng men in shady places; too mnch tape cat
ting end pin selling and too little cotton chop
ping and hay caring; too many yard sticks
thrown around loose on smooth-top connters
and not enough hoc-handles and plow-stocks;
too many law books aod lager beer barrels in
proportion to tbe rail-splitting and ditob dig
ging; too mnch foolish fashion and foppery,
and net enough sledge- hammers and saw-horses
—in a word, too mnch uboleeale idleness.
Georgia has to-day, bnried in the rich bosom
of her varied eoil and precious mineral beds,
greater wealth nad grander results than can
ever be worked ont by canal projects or
Congressional enterprises. And bow is it to
badone? Not by dreamy theories and myth
ical plans, bnt in talking corn instead of canal
—in diversifying and developing onr own vast
resources—in writing more abent homo ejfort
and less abont foreign immigration—in plant-
tog leas cotton sod manufacturing more yarns.
In this, and this only, lies the great secret of
Georgia success—agricultural as well as finan
cial and commercial. We are immensely rich in
resources but miserably poor in the handling of
them. What we want ia vork—honest, hard-
fiattd, intelligent, well-direoted toil, labor and
application in developing and utilizing what we
have hors at home rather than so many spas
modic efforts to bring from abroad that which
we should not bug. Our poverty, like onr
pride, ia tha result of misapprehensions end
mistaken ideas of ourselves, of onr country
and of eaoh other. The abolition of slavery in
the South has developed a vast world of sickly,
sentimental, lazy, indolent, stnpified, inert
and unapt population—a population of young
and middle-aged moo, some of whom have
kuown better days. These men put on olJ
Rtore clothes, hang around dirty grogshops and
dingy hotels, nnoko cheap segars and drink
mean whisky, affect old habits and anti-war
style, talk palUioa a little and coreo destiny and
free negroes more, fret and fume over the re
mit of tbo late war, write and sign np mort
gage liens on their cotton crops before they are
planted, pay two per cent, interest on money
for nine months in the year and then promise
to pay annnaliy in the fall more money per sore
for commercial manures to eoitter over their
lands than some of them originally cost.
And, finally, when inattention to business and
general bad policy and mismanagement have
brought them snd their State to the extremity
of deaperaiion—when ruin and bankruptcy stare
na all in the face—we Iiano proclamations, call
pnhlio meetings, invito distinguished gentlemen
from abroad to come here and sympathize with
us. We meet in bacqnet halls,drink mnch cham
pagne and discharge more gas over the gTeat
and absorbing quoitions of canal schemes, Con
gressional aid and cheap transportation, than
was ever expended by our forefathers in dis
missing tbo Declaration of American Indepen
dence. Atd what does it avail? Will these
idle and extravagant demonstrations ever work
ont the great problem of Georgia independence?
No! Never nutil labor becomes popular will
money get easy. Never, until we feed fancy
less, sad learn to fatten" chickens and hegs
more, will want disappear and plenty step in.
When these plain secrets of life shall have been
learned, when the wild mania for speculation
«b.li have departed from onr farm houses and
plantations, when onr planters shall learn from
experience to abandon Wall street brokers and
"cotton futures," and come to deal more di
rectly in tbo prodnotions of square little "spots”
of potatoes and corn, when agriculture shall
become the ruling feature and controlling inter
est in onr State—then, and not until then, will
we beoome an independent, prosperous and
happy people. Axd we have here in Georgia
all the elements necessary to this great end.
Hero God has blessed ns with everything essen
tial to the prosperity and growth of man cr
beast, if only worked ont. Everything, from
a chicken and a churn to a cotton field and a
ooal bed, from a ground pea patch on the sand
bills to a gold mine in the mountains. These
are among the rich, rare and multiplied resources
of Georgia; these constitute our strength, oar
refege and onr power.
Think of it, faxmaa and planters of Middle
Georgia! Here we are, in the heart of the
Empire State, the boosted owners of lands with-
out stint, blessed with a climate and soil where
two crops of grain or two of potatoes, or one
etch of pea vines and hay can be successfully
grown on the same land the same year, and yet
go to Baltimore to bny guano to make a lit—
cotton to sell in New York to get money to
The Horlh Carolina Bondholders.
A meeting of holders of North Carolina
special tax bonds was held this afternoon (says
the Herald of Thursday) at the office of Thomas
Denny, 39 Wall street, who, as chairman, re
ported that, after the submission of the case to
Reverdy Johnson, of Baltimore, Md., to under
take the suit of the bondholders against the State
of North Carolina on terms favorable to the
bondholders, or rather to that part of them join
ing in the suit, the same kind of engagement
was made with Mr. C. McDonald to carry on
additional salt on equally favorable terms. An
abstract of the opinion of Beverdy Johnson was
read at the meeting to the effect that the sped a]
tax bonds are binding upon the State. Second,
that the State had no right to appropriate to
herself the provisions for such a levy as the legis
lation nnder which the bonds were issued. Third,
that her proper officers were bound to levy the
annual tax provided for to meet the interest, and
the holders of the bonds who are not citizens of
the United States may compel them to do so by
a writ of mandamus from tbe United States for
the district of that State. An abstract of opin
ion of Mr. Caleb Cashing, furnished by Mr. C.
McDonald, given in regard to a special tax
case, but bearing equally on the various special
tax bonds, was also read, to the effect, first, that
there is a process by which the collectors using
this venue in general, to represent proper per
sons to collect the taxes, can be compelled to col
lect the tax in question ; second, that the holders
of these bonds have legal claim upon the special
tax fund imposed and collected, and in the hands
of the treasurer, until improperly appropriated
by the Legislature for purposes other than pay
ing the interest on the special tax bond#- third,
that as a Circuit Court of the United States can
not issue the writ of mandamus except to enforce
a judgment previously rendered by it, it will
be necessary to obtain a judgment on the coupon
in the Circuit Court before applying for the
mandamus. Mr. Denny further stated that the
committie had prepared blanks and receipts,
and were now ready to receive the assents and
subscriptions of those willing to join in the suits,
and desire to commence these suits as soon as
possible. He also stated, on information, that
the amount in the treasury to the credit of the
various sjiecial tax issues at the time of its mis
appropriation by the State was enough to pay
nearly all the back interest on the $2,200,000
bonds invited to join in the suit, and that the
committee will make it their endeavor to obtain
judgment against those moneys for the benefit
of those joining in suit. It will be borne in
mind that a Congressman Smith, from North
Carolina, has recently written a letter favoring
the repudiation of the entire State debt.
Frightful Cane of Insanity.
A horrible case of crime from religious
insanity recently occurred in Clinton county,
Missouri. A young farmer named Vender, had
a happy family, consisting of a lair young wife
and lovely child of thirteen months, with
all worldly thrift to make home delightful. Tho
young wife, happening to become engrossed by a
sories of protracted religious meetings, held in
the vicinity, soon discovered symptoms of mon
omania. One night her husband was awakened
by a noise she mule in hastening from the bed
room with her little, lovely bov in her arms,
when struck by her manner and look he sprang
up, and, taking her child, inquired what she
was going to do. She replied that she had had
a vision, and the Lord had commanded her to
imitate the example of Abraham and offer up
her child as a sacrifice; that she was going to
the kitchen for her knife to slay her darling in
obedience to the command.
The husband was terror stricken, and for the
time realized the fact that she was insane. But
a lucid period intervened, and his vigilance re
laxed. One morning, alter a brief absence on
his return to the house and beheld a spectacle
that palsied him with horror. In the center of
the kitchen lay a block of wood covered with
blood. On one side was the head of the infant,
on the other the body. The fair hair of the
beautiful little boy was drabbled with blood,
and his face wore an expression of agony. An
axe was lying near by, showing how cruelly the
deed was done. The mother was swaying her
self in a chair, saying, “I have obeyed the
command.”

the State Agricultural Society throws open the
doors of her Exposition halls, offers her pre
minm lists to the pnblic, and invites campeti
tion from every section of tho country.
It may sometimes suit tho interest of small
politicians to excite sectional antagonisms in the
State; but no such petty jealousy is to be found
in the heads and hearts of those engaged in the
industrial pursuits. All are expected at the
Fair in October. Macon unites with the State
Agricultural Society in s cordial invitation to
every oonnty in the State to be represented. It
will impart new life, vigor and energy to every
industry; it .will disseminate knowledge and
edtore among the great masses of the people;
it will kindle a lofty emulation among the work
ing classes; it will present one vast field for
testing theories and trying conclusions; it will
cement ns, as a people, in the bonds of frater
nal union, and none ehonld be deterred from
fear of defeat—for the triumph of one will be
the triumph of all, and there will be no re j oicing
over anv defeat.
From the ladies we expect much—yes, almost
everything. Without their kindly aid and han
diwork we shall have no Floral Hall, and with
out that pleasing feature in perfection the Fair
can never be a grand success. The good women
of our ocuntry saved ns here two years ago—
without their timely effort* the Fair of 1871
would have been an immense failure. Their
hearty oo-o pc ration now is all we want to Insure
8000633.
Let 03 then unite in one mighty effort to
throw together, in one common display, the
grand and aggregate specimen resource* of onr
proud old commonwealth. I^t it be such an
exposition of out pride and onr strength; such
an evidenoe of o*ir skill and taste, onr genius
and our energy, and especially of our toft for
agriculture and onr home*, aa shall challenge,
in kindness, the competition of the Sooth,

ia the beat that 1 ever saw ran. It cleans the seed
perfectly- I have been raised in a gin house, and
I believe I know aU abont whit Bbonld bo expected

Mr. P. 0. Sawyor—Dear Sir: The Cotton Gin

fullest expectations, and does all you promised it
should do. We have ginned one hundred and six
teen bales on it, and it has never choked nor bro
ken the roll. It picks the seed clean and makes
good lint. We have had considerable experience
with various kinds of cotton gins, and can, with
safety eav touts is the best we have ever seen run.

The proprietors avail themselves of the
lull in advertising to present their claims
again to the public. Nothing within the
range of our ability is omitted to mate
the Telegraph and Messenger In all
its editions acceptable to the reader. As
a vehicle of the earliest news on all cur
rent topics— and of careful and candid
exposition, we concede no superior in this
State.
In point of circulation in tho range of
the country trading with Macon, the dif
ferent editions of the paper are far 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 bo 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.
THE WEEKLY
Is the largest weekly in the Cotton States,
and prints 56 columns. Its ample space
admits of a perfect resume of all the news
of the week, domestic and foreign. The
contents of a single number would make
a large volume, and afibrd in themselves
abundant miscellaneous, political and
news reading for the week. This is pub
lished at $3 per annum or SI 50 for six
months. Specimen numbers will be for
warded gratis on the receipt of an order
enclosing stamp for that purpose. Wo
would be glad if our patronB of the "Week
ly would show it to friends who are not
subscribers. This edition of the paper is
sent to hundreds of Georgians who have
emigrated to other States and keeps them
perfectly posted in regard to every im
portant public event in the old Empire
State of the South.
