7o tf.e People of Upper and Lover Georgia-
Lay on ere aware, the Georgia State Agricnl-

to» *r °° mmenc ' D B Oh the 27th day of Oo-
Erery trne Georgian is Jmtly proed of his
nttiT* hute rich in mineraU as it is varied in
soil—wealthy, indeed, in all that ahonld coneti-
tnte a people preaperons and happy. We hare
bare that diversity of production and peculiar
adaptation of the various auctions to the dif
ferent indoatrul paracits which combine to
make np the natural elements enSeient for an
Empire. In agriculture, as in everything else,
harmonious concert of action strengthens and
anpports each section of the State. Lower
Georgia has her peonliar interest to foster and
protect and her great strength to boast of
Tne same may be laid of upper and middle
Geo gla. The city of Macon occupies a grand
central position geographically, and her citi
zens have provided within her limits fair
gronnda and equipments equal, if not superior
to any to the United States, for the accommo
dation of visitors and for the exhibition of any
and every article which may be brought
here for show. The Executive Commune
d members of the 8 ate Agricultural Society
have evinced a determination to make this next
tne great Fair of the State. The handsome atd

‘‘ConutydiHpleja" are looked forward t» as tne
prominent and great leading features of tbe Fair,
and will doubt,ess present a grand panoramic
view of each county and section such as baa
never before been witnessed by the people ol
Georgia. The purposes of this appeal are,
I barer ore, to iDvite and urge every county in
the State, if poe.ible, to be represented in sum.
way, so that wo may have no blanks in the pio
into To do this is a plain, patnolio dnty ; a
duty which, if zealously performed, will eon
dace to the prosperity and snocess of every
county In tbe Bute, wubont any regard what,
ever aato which gets the $1000 premium of
feted. This premium wdi, of ooar.e, go to th-
c.nnty wbich shall famish tbe “largeat aud
and fiueat display.” Bat, as will be aeen b)
reference to tbe premtnm list, there are three
other handsome premiums to be distributed
among other connties, as follows:
A premium of $600 to the county making tha
second beat display.
A premium o( $300 to the county making tbe
third beat display; and
A premium of $200 to the county making the
fonrtn beat display.
There are now three prominent connties in
the State whtoh are known to be bendiog and
ooncentrating all their vast powers and resour
ces npon this great contest—one in Upper Geor
gia, one in Middle Georgia, and one in Sonth
western Georgia. O.her connties will report
progress, and enter the list for competition at
the next meeting of the Society, to be held in
Athens next month.
Bat while the foregoing connty prizes are in
tended to n present the leading features of tbe
premtnm list, they are by no means tho most
sttracive. The city of Maocn baa united with
tbe society in the elTort to present a list of re
wards that will not only please but actually
recompense the exhibitor for soma labor and
expense. And among others which may be re

promises nobler resnl.s iban this. Tnt-re will
be a great moral influence growing cat of it.

will be entertained, pleased and instructed
Here we will learn the 6oarces of supply ®»d

where, in our own St&le/each and every article
is produced, raised or manufaciured. Our peo
ple will here be tanght where, in their own
country, they may follow that pursuit best
suited to their interest and taste, without being
forced to hunt homes among strangers, r
now too often the case. Exhibitors from Upper
Georgia will here find a market for tho ready
saio of much, if not oil, of their perishable ar
ticles at full, remunera'.ive prices. In addition
to all this, much general good must necessarily
grow ont of these annual reunions of eo many
of the thinking aud working men and women
of the country. The spirit of State pride is
tanned into new life by these meetings, and
we forget, as it were, our indvidual irnsfor-
iones m rejoicing over our mutual suooesses.

dollars no long on three fatal card*, called

e now have nothing left ns bnt onr mule* and
lauds; and in seven oases ont of ten these are
pledged to some warehouse firm for supplies to
make this year s crop with. And yet, in the
*ace of all this crouching poverty.embar
rassment, we learn from tbe newspaper* of the
country that more l%nd is planted in cotton this
yeur than last, or even iny year since the war.
N i wonder, then, that we should be crying out
for more transportation.
Fifteen year* ago, when I first commenced
he produce basinet in Macon, my little orders
for grain and meat seldom went farther west
• hau the '-rtile hi lie of Ch-rokee Georgia, and
ihe narrow valleys in East Tennessee. I had
’imo then to write and send letters for these
aoppltes and wait the return of quotations be
fore buying I, with other merchants, pur
chased there, at our leisure, all that was nrces-
ssry to scpply the wants of Middle and South-
w«--.:ern Georgia. Now we send onr immense
orders by telegraphic wires to the rich Atlas and
broad plains of Illinois and Missouri; and if,
by any chance or ill luck, a railroad bridge is
burned or a transfer boat is sunk and a little
b'ockdde occura en route, a panic ensues and a
meit, bread and hay famine at onoe threatens
every man and beast south of Chattanooga.
This is onr miserably poor and belpiess oondi
tion to-day—fearful and unreasonable as it may
appear to outsidTs. Bat that annual deficiency
“ fifty millions of bushels of gT&in in the four
atea of Georgia, Alabama, Florida and South
Carolina, commented upon so gravely by tbe
late Ganal Convention in Atlanta, tells the whole
ritory. Wo have suddenly awakened, as it were,
from a deep sleep and discovered the unwel
come fact that we are a poor, thriftless non-
prodneing, ail consuming, dependent people.
And just so long as tho farmers and planters of
Georgia pursue their present mad policy of buy-
ing fertilizers to make ootton to bay corn, bacon
and hay with, and then pay two per cent, a
month for money from April to November of
each year to run this wild schedule, just so long
will they bo pitiable beggars and borrowers at
the doors of transportation offices and Georgia
shaving shops, provided a worse fate does not
speedily overtake them.
The truth is, the whole country has become
ono common counting room and huge gambling
shop. What we once did with the axe and the
hoe, the plowshare and the reaping hook, we
now seek to accomplish by strategy andchanoe,
credit and speculation. And we must, sooner
or later, come back to first principles or we
must perish. We have too many able-bodied
young men in shady places; too mnch tape cut*
ting and pin selling and too little ootton chop
ping and hay curing; too many yard Bticks
thrown around loose on smooth-top counters
and not enoagh hoe-handies and plow-stocks;
too many law books and lager beer barrels in
proportion to tho rail-splitting and ditch dig
ging; too much foolish fashion and foppery,
and not enough sledge- hammers and saw-horses
—in a word, too mnch wholesale idleness.
Georgia has to-day, bnried in the rich bosom
of her varied soil and precious mineral beds,
greater wealth and grander results than can
ever be worked ont by canal projects or
Congressional enterprises. And how is it to
be done ? Not by dreamy theories and myth
ical plans, bnt in talking corn instead of oanal

resources—in writing more aboat home effort

In ibis, and this only, lies the great secret of
Georgia snocess—agricultural as well as finan

them. What we want is tcork—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 « ff irts to bring from abroad that which
we should not buy. Oar poverty, like onr
pride, is the. result of misapprehensions and

A WAR REMINISCENCE.
Tbe Remarkable Prophecies of Kr. Tboa T.
aillse Hade la Use M«fal Spring of U.
From tbe Courier Journal ]
Reading yesterday the letter of your Rich
mond correspondent of date*June 14, the identity
of names and^other matters recalled forcibly to
my mind an incident occurring shortly after the
surrender of Gen. Lee’s army in April, I860,
the relation of which may not be without in
terest to a portion of your readers. "Your cor
respondent ?peaka of the remarkable prescience
of Mr. Calhoun with regard to the Richmond
ac i Atlanta Air-line railroad, as indicated ir a
ige conversation with Messrs. Thos. T. Giles
d G. A. Myer?, many years since, on the road
from Richmond to Washington. I propose to
make public the still more remarkable presci
ence of one of the parties to that stage conver
sation, Mr. Giles, as indicated in a somewhat
similar off-hand conversation immediately after
the close of the war, with respect to many of the
leading results likely to grow out of the over
throw of the Confederate cause. About three
weeks after the surrender at Appomattox Court
house, and immediately following up the recep
tion in Virginia of the news of the surrender of
General Joe Johnston’s army in North Carolina,
I happened to be a visitor a: the house of Mr.
Louis E. Harvie, president of the Richmond
and Danville railroad, near Chula, in Amelia
county, Ya. Mr Tom Giles, of Richmond—and,
I presume, the same gentleman alluded to by
your correspondent—was at the time, with
several others besides myself, % visitor at the
-ame hospitable mansion. Both Federal and
Confederate armies had onlr a few weeks before
passed within a few miles of Chula, leaving ruin,
desoiation, and misery along their pathway.
Being somewhat out of their course, the beauti
ful residence and grounds of Mr. Harvie, like
those of a number of his immediate neighbors—
General Sam Jones among the rest—had escaped
the devastation which played havoc with the
thrifty plantations and cozy homesteads of not
a few of their less fortunate fellow-citizens only
a few miles distant. Of course the whole com
pany were more or less dispirited and troubled
with gloomy forebodings as to the future. In
this mood they were at first but little disposed
to active or continued conversation. Mr. Harvie
himself was a cripple, resulting from a serious
accident to himself upon the R. D. R. R.
a few months before, by which one or both of
his legs were broken while in the discharge of
his duties £3 president, superintending arrange
ments for the more rapid transit of troop9 and
supplies for General Lee’s army, then in front
of Richmond and Petersburg. Reclining npon
his invalid lounge, his whole frame occasionally
twitching with suffering, he only now and then
engaged in conversation. M. Giles, his intimate
friend and the attorney for the R. D. R. R.,
shared with the oth?r members of the company
present the prevailing depression. For the first
day or two he was disposed to be but little com
municative of his thoughts.
About the third day, however, this mood of
thoughtful silence seemed in a measure to wear
away, and, upon the conversation being turned
' iy some member of the party present to the prob-
.ble result of the war, as afiecting the property
and financial condition of the wedte people of
the South, and especially their relations, politi
cal and otherwise, with the negroes, Mr. Giles
entered into the discussion with more than or
dinary animation. As seen now by the light of
subsequent events the views then expressed by
Mr. Giles seem to the writer a little if any
short of actual prophecy. "While all of the com
pany without exception conceded the immediate
and utter destruction of elavery, none but Mr.
Giles, and perhaps Mr. Harvie, who rarely in
terposed a word in the conversation, appeared to
have more than a partial conception of the im
mense change soon to be wrought in the rela
tions of the two races, the pecuniary condition
the Southern whites and the structure and organ
ism of both Federal and State Governments. He,
however, seemed to comprehend the whole sub
ject in ail its bearings. In concise and perspic
uous 'language, uttered with deliberate and
thoughtful gravity befitting the time and cir
cumstances under which it was spoken, he
sketched the probable, and, as he declared, al
most certain, results of the overthrow of the
Southern Confederacy with a philosophic ampli
tude and logical precision which, as he progress
ed, carried conviction to the minds of the listen
ers, and now that the events he predicted have
happened just as he foretold they would happen,
seems to the writer to have been scarcely less
than intuition itself. He spoke first of the eman
cipation and freedom of the slaves, to be accom
panied with a general disfranchisement of the
Southern white*, then of the admission of the
negroes t*. the ri^Iit of suffrage, to l»e soon fol
lowed by their admission to the right of office,
to sit upon juries, and exercise all the other civil
functions of citizens. He next declared that
speedy^ action would be taken by the Federal
authorities, military and civil, for their support
in immense numbers, either by becoming a di
rect charge upon the Federal treasury, or else,
as more than likely, at the expense of the
white poxmlalion of the respective Southern
States, involving in its consequences limited
confiscation of the lands and other property of
a large portion of the wfiitcs. Expanding with
the theme and attention given to his words by all
of the company, lie then went on to declare that
the next step in the painful drama would be
the accession of the negroes to and their actual
control of all the political power of the gulf,
and, perhaps, other seceding States, resulting
in the wholesale robbery and impoverishment
of the whites, by reason of the taxing power
being tlm3 invested in the hands of the negro
led on by unscrupulous adventurers from the
North. He continued by declaring that this
would be followed by laws designed to bring
about social as well as political equality between
the races, leading in many cases to practical
amalgamation, and the social and personal
degradation of no more inconsiderable num
ber of the poorer and more ignorant whites of
both sexes. Then branching off to the North
he described the great change these thin:
combined with other events of the war, wor
bring upon the governments, State ^nd Federal,
and society of the North itself ^ the reckless
ness and corruption they would introduce into
every department of the public service ; local

shall hava departed from onr farm houses and
plantations, when onr planters shall learn from
experience to abandon W»U street brokers and
“ootton futures,” and como to deal more di
rectly in the promotions of square little “spots”
of potatoes and oorn, when agriculture Khali
become the rulirg feature acd controlling inter
est in onr State—then, and not until then, will
we become an independent, proeperons and
happy people. And we have here in Georgia
all the 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 only worked out. Everything, from
a chicken and a churn to a ootton field and a
oo it bed, from a gronnd pea patch on the sand
hills to a gold mine in the mountains. These
are among tho rich, rare and multiplied resouroes
of Georgia; these constitute onr strength, onr
refuge and oar power.
Think of it, farmers and planters of Middle
Georgia! Here we are, in the heart of the
Empire State, the boasted owners of lands with
out stint, blessed with a climate and Boil where
two crops of grain or two of potatoes, or one
ea eh of pea vines and hay can be auooessfolly
grown on the same land the same year, and yet
we go to Baltimore to buy guano to make a lit-
tie eolton to sell in New York to get money to
buy hay, oata and corn away out in tbe rich
States of Kentucky, Indiana, Illinois and Mis
sourL And just so loiig as we are the volunta
ry patrons of prodnoe dealers, heartless rings
and pampered monopolies, such as cow own
and control, operate and direct onr only lines of
trade and transportation north, south and west,
just so long will we be fit subjects for lien-
diafts and homestead laws, mortgages and re
pudiation. The Sonth must work out her own
independence. The remedy is ours, if we will
only apply it. Too often have we been beguil
ed by plan-ible schemes for great improve
ments and financial relief. Let ns no longer be
lulled into a false security by any promises
which be made, outside of our harvest
fields and hog pens, onr hay patches and cane
mills. It is here we shall find it. To this end
the State Agricultural Society throws open the
doors of her Exposition halls, offer, her pre
mium lists to the public, and invites competi
tion from every section of the country.
It may sometimes suit the interest of small
politicians to excite sectional antagonisms in the
State - bat no such petty jealousy is to be found
m the’ heads and hearts of taose engaged in tho
industrial pursuit*. Ail are expected at the
Fair in October. Macon unite* with the State
igroaitni-al Soc:e:v in a eordiai invitation to
every connty in the State to be represented. It
will impart new life, vigor and energy to every
industry; it will disseminate knowledge and
culture among the great masses of the people;
it will kmale a lofty emulation among the work
ing ciasaee; it will present one vast field for
testing theories and trying oonolnmona ; it wid
cement us, aa a people, in the bonds of frater
nal union, and none ahould be deterred from
fear of defeat—for the triumph of one will be
the triumph of all, and there will be no rejoining
over any defeat. J .
From the ladles we expect much—yea, almost
evervthing. Wnhoet their kindly aid and han
diwork we shall bare nc Floral Hall, and with
out that pleaaing feature in perfection the Fair

Inconstant! Oh, my God!
Inconstant! when a single thought of thee
Beads all my shivering blood
Back an my heart in thrills of eoitacy.
Ineouatant! When to sleep
And dream that thou art near me is to learn
So mnch of Heaven J veep
Because earth and morning tens! return.
Inconstant! Ah I too true!
Turned from the rightful she'.ter of thy b*east y
Mytired heart flatters through
The changeful world—a bird without a nest:
Inconstant the crowd

But not to thee, oh. not to thee, dear lov?.
may be false to all
On earth betide, and every tender tie
^h'ch seems to hold in thrall
This weary life of miue may bs ft lie:
But true as Hod's own truth
My steadfast heart turn* backward evermore
To that sweet time of youth
Whose golden tide beat each a barren chore-
Inconstant 1 Not my own
Tbe hand which builds tbe wall between our lives;
On its cold f hadow grown
The perfect shape the power of love survivee
God knows that I would give
AH other joys, the sweetest and tbe beet,
For one ehort hoar to live
Close to thy heart, its comfort and its feat
And when another's head
Bleeps on thy heart, it it shou'd ever seem
To ba mine own instead.
Oh! darling, hold it closer for the dream.
Bat life is not all dark;
lhe eunlisht gladdens many a hidden slope;
The dove shall find its ark
Of peaoeful refuge and of patient hops.
I shall yet be possessed
Of woman's meed—my small world set apart—
Home. Iovp, protection, rest.
And chil Iren’s voices singing through my heart
By God’s help I will be
A faithful mother a-:d a tender wife;
Perhaps ev^n m«re, for He
Has chastened the best glory of my life.
But sacred to his loss
One white »weet chamber of my heart shall be:
No foot shall ever cross
The silent portal sealed to love and thee.
And sometimes, when my lips
Are to my first bom’s clinging close and long,
Draining with bee-like sips
All its sweet lily heart, will it be wrong,
If for an instant, wild
With precious pais. I put the truth aside
And dream it is thy child
That I am fondling with such tender pride ?
And when another'll head
Bleeps on thy heart, if it should seem
To be my own instead,
Oh, darling, holdtt closer for the dream.
God will forgive the sin,
Jf sin it is onr lives are swept so dry
So cold, so passion clear;
Thank Him death comes at last, and so good byo.
Potting Pitch In Their Bools
A company of hunters caught a number of
monkeys in the forests of Brazil in the follow
ing amusing way: They had a lot of little boots
made, just large enough to be drawn easily
over a monkey’s foot, and filled the bottom
with pitch. With these they set out for the
woods, and soon found themselves under the
trees, where the lively little fellows were leap
ing about among the branches, hanging by
their tails, swinging themselves easily down
from one tree to another, and chattering noisily
together, as if making observations upon the
strange visitors that had come into their quar
ters. The hunters were too wise to attempt to
catch them by climbing up the trees; they
might as well have expected to snatch a flying
bird as to lay hands upon one of these nimble
little fellows. They had had an easier way
than this, and one much more effectual. They
simply sat down under the trees, while the lit
tle chatter-boxes were rattling on over their
heads, but never for a moment removing their
eyes from them. Then they placed the little
boots where they could be seen, and commenced
taking off their own boots. Having done this,
they let them stand a while near the little boot-*,
All this the monkeys very carefully noticed
The hunters, now taking up their own boots, hav
ing carefully looked over them, drew them slow
ly, one after the other, upon their feet. Not a mo
tion escaped the observation of the monkeys.
Having replaced their boots, they hurried
away to the thicket of undergrowth not far off,
where they were hidden from the sight of the
monkeys, but where they could see everything
that happened under the trees. They left the
small boots all standing in a row. They were
no sooner out of sight than down from the
branches dropped the monkeys. They looked
at the hoots, took them up, smelt of them, and
finally seating themselves as the hunters had
done, drew them on over their feet.
As soon as they were fairly in the boots, out
sprang the hunters -from their hiding place,
and rushed among them. The monkeys af
frighted, at once started for the trees, but only
to find that they had destroyed the power of
climbing by putting on the boots. So they fell
an easy prey to their cunning enemies. This is
the way the monkeys were caught. And how
many young persons are caught in the same
way! In their desire to do what they see other
persons doing, they fall into serious trouble,
and often bring upon themselves ruinous habits
that follow them to the grave.

North to this process otconsolidation. Finally,
directing attention more particularly to the social
condition of the Northern States, he foreshadow
ed the general demoralization of its society of all
classes; the gradual relaxation of the legal and
moral relations between husband and wife, pa
rent and child, guardian and ward, master and
apprentice, the rapid concentration of capital
iii the hands of large corporations and a com
paratively few fortunate or unscrupulous indi
viduals ; the formation of trades unions and la
bor strikes on a large scale, as an offset to this
consolidation of capital in the hands of the few;
the creation and rapid extension of secret socie
ties of all sorts, political and otherwise; and last,
the slow growth, but ultimate triumph, of the
woman suffrage movement until suffrage became
universal in fact as well as in name. Then, said
lie, the country, at last grown desperate under
such a complication of ills and accumulation of
dangers, will ultimately seek relief from both
its misery and peril in military despotism, to be
speedily supplemented by avowed and former
imperialism.
Such, in general outline, detailed as closely as
memory, after the lapse of eight years will en
able me to follow it, were the striking, and, at
the time, in some respects, apparently, most
singular views expressed by Mr. Giles in that
sad but deeply interesting conversation at Dyke-
land, during one of the latter days of April, 1S65.
With the exception of his two last predictions,
woman suffrage and imperialism, actual experi
ence has proved his foreshadowing of events
was, at the time, all bnt prophetic.
How long it will be before the successful in
auguration of these two last, woman suffrage and
imperialism, will complete the dark circle of
Mr. GUe’s gloomy horoscope of the American
future a few more eventful years may soon de
termine. Already semi-military despotism—as
witness the unhappy fate of oppressed Lou
isiana—has followed last upon the heels of the
others. Judged in the light of recent events at
the South and late portentous movements at the
North, that fateful day may roll around more
rapidly than even the most sagacious and far-
seeing vision yet wots of. H.
A. Fattier’* Advice to a Bride.
Said a young husband, whose business spec
ulations were ucsuccessful: "My wife’s silver
tea set, the bridal gift of a rich uncle, doomed
me to to financial ruin. It involved a hundred
unexpected expense?, which in trying to meeti
have made me the bankrupt that I am. His

expect to begin
many years oflabor to indulge; and I know
of nothing which*will tempt you to try, more
than the well-intentioned bnt pernicious gifts of
rich friends.” Such advice i3 timely. If other
parents would follow the Bam. plan, many
Voting men would be spared years of incessant
toil and anxiety; they would not find them
selves on th* downward road because their
wives had wom all of their salary at expend
ed it on the appointments of the house- The
fate of the poor man who found a linchpin and
felt obliged to make a carriage to fit it, is the
fate of the husband who finds his bride in po»
ession of gold and silver vaiiyhlas and no
large income to support the owner’s gold and

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 make
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 the range of
the country trading with Macon, the dif
ferent editions of tho paper are far be
yond competition. They literally per
vade the Central and Southwestern coun

No business man of Macon can afford
to be 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 tbe 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

it is the “largest circulation,” but within
