Colonel Charles P. Hansell, Secretary
of the South Georgia Agricultural and
Mechanical Association, publishes a card
to the following effect: A report has
been in circulation that no animal or arti
cle which had already taken a premium
could bo entered at this fair. The report
is Inoorrect, and there are now no restric
tions on anything other than those
printed in the premium list, and we will
be governed strictly by that. Please
publish the above as official.
The Quitman Reporter calls attention
to the fact that Mr. Cyrus McNeill has
shipp -d from our depot since the Ist of
last June six hundred and sixty seven
barrels of rosin, and one hundred and
forty-eight barrels of spirits turpentine,
the former netting in Savannah about
five and a half dollars per barrel, and the
latter about nine dollars and seventy-five
’Went* per barrel, which will make some
thing over live thousand dollars. This
was produced by tho labor of less than
ten men. From all of which the Reporter
draws this moral: Compare these figures
with the present value of cotton, the cost
of producing it, etc., and if the result
will not warrant the conclusion that the
production of turpentine will pay better
than cotton here, where we havo the finest
pine timber in the world, then come to
us and we’ll own that we are no farmer;
that’s all.
The Albany News says that tho entire
cotton crop of Southwestern Georgia is
evidently falling short of its estimates, if
the reoeipts to date are to he accepted as
indices. The News cotton statement
shows a much greater falling off than
twenty-five per cent., and we have no re
liable information that planters are bold
ing back their crops in*proportion to the
deficit in receipts. It is true that the
crop is later, and is not being gathered
bo rapidly as last year, aud it may be that
this is mainly the cause of the short re
ceipts. It would, however, be extrava
gant to insist upon more than three
fourths of a crop.

The Augusta Chronicle gives tho par -
ticulars of a very distressing accident.
On Thursday last tho shifting engine of
the Port Royal Railroad, in charge of Mr.
ham Uavis, was conveying eight cars
from the Port Royal depot to the cotton
compress, two of the cars being in front
and six behind the engine. As the train
proceeded from the depot towards Wash
ington street a number of boys jumped
on the bumpers. Among these was a
tittle fellow about ton years of age,
turned Richard Shumate," sou of Rev.
Join* M. 0. Shumate, a book agent. The
boy got on the bumper of the front car.
When the 4uii\ r aaohc.l tho coruor of
Washington and Taylor streets it is sup
posed that the jar caused by the front
car striking the "frog” threw the toy
off. At any rate, he fell directly on
the trm k. One of the wheels of the car
passed over his left thigh and mangled
it in a horrible manner. The boy im
mediately screamed and the engineer
at once stopped the train. This was*the
first intimation he had that the boy was
about the ear. He ran to the spot where
the unfortunate child was weltering in
his blood, and aided bv several other par
ties, picked the boy up and carried him
to his father’s residence at the corner of
Mclntosh and Calhoun streets. His left
leg, which had been run over between
the knee and body, was hanging by a few
shreds of flesh to the trunk. The bone
was broken about half way betweeu the
knee and the body, while the flesh was
crushed in a shapeless mass above the j
break entirely to the body. Several phy- j
sieiaus w ere summoned. They proceeded
to amputate the leg above the break,
close to the body, and were engaged in I
tho operation about 8 o’clock. Serious I
fears were entertained that the little fel
low would not survive his injuries.
Albany Hews: It will be remembered ’
that at the last term of the Dougherty

to read certain law to the jury for the
defense, ia a case of felony, and was
silenced by the presiding Judge, who
ruled that counsel could not read or com
ment ou the law to the jury, that being
the exclusive province of the court.
Major Ely excepted to the ruling, and
the Supreme Court recently sustained the
exception, and sent the case back for a
new trial.

The Atlanta correspondent of the Au
gusta Chronicle says: ‘No one here be
lieves that Blodgett will give himself up
for trial, noiywiU Chamberlain honor a
requisition as Blodgett con
tributed largely towards the ‘reformer’s’
election. Moreover, lam informed that
Chamberlain has been Blodgett’s retained
counsel ever since his advent into South

men from Atlanta caused Blodgett’s ar
rest in Columbia, Chamberlain persuaded
a dirty old fellow named Richmond, the
Trial Justice, before whom the case came,
to turn him loose without bail.’’

The Valdosta Times says that Mr.
Thomas J. Bottoms has invented an
apparatus which he claims will run any
sewing machine "for ten hours. It is
quite simple, only requiring to be wound
up in the same niunner as a clock. It is
called the “Ladies’ Friend,” and well
will it deserve the appellation if it per
forms the immense amount of physical
labor now required to run a machine.
Br. Bottoms is an inventor of no ordi
nary merit, having heretofore succeeded
in inventing a number of useful labor
saving machines.

The Atlanta Herald says that the 20tli
of October is the day set apart for the'
proposed druggists’ meeting at Macon,

Atlanta correspondence Augusta Vhroni
cle: J. E. Bryant, the notorious, who
now rejoices in a fat government office in
Savannah, is flooding the mails with
documents abusive of the Southern peo
ple, whom ho denounces in the bitterest
terms. He is especially severe upon
Gen. Toombs, Mr. Stephens and Gen.
McLaws, whom he represents as plotting
to organize another rebellion. How
such a fellow has been tolerated in a de
cent community people here are at a loss
to understand, and the faot that he has
not long since been driven from Georgia
spenks volumes in favor of your good
people as law-abiding citizens. His
antics displayed in one of the Northern
States would soon treat him to a ride on
a rat V-road.
Macon Telegraph: Mr. Matt. O’Brien,
of Augusta, sends a few of his own
paintings to be exhibited at the fair.
[ Among them is a very remarkable one,
representing Greene street, Augusta, by
night. This painting cannot fail to at
j tract attention, especially among those
who are familiar with the street, which is
oue of the most beautiful boulevards in
America. Matt. O'Brien is a genius. If
| his talent as a caricaturist were turned
into a proper channel it would make him
famous and wealthy. We have seen
| some of his cartoons, which equal the
j best of Nast’s. While we have not yet
! seen the pictures ho has sent to the Fair,
we feel safe in predicting that they will
be worth seeing.
Columbus Enquirer: Mayor Mcllhenny
and others who attended the late railroad
convention at Greenville report the peo
ple of Meriwether most anxious to have
the North and South Road extend
! ed. as far as Chipley, beyond Pine
J mountain. They evince a spirit of
doing all they cau to the very ex
tent of their ability in securing the
road. Its benefits to Columbus are in
calculable. Meriwether is essentially a
white man’s county, and her people have
not yet learned to have their smoke
j house ami corn cribs in the West. It is
| an extensive fruit region, and the people
j would reap large returns by obtaining a
| market. The advantages would be very
! great to Columbus, adding as it would
j ten thousaud bales of cotton per annum
j to her receipts, and give her the trade of
| a valuable section. With £4. ">,000 cash
i the road cau be extended to Chipley, be
I fully equipped and another engine pur
; chased.
Griffin Sews : Clark Edmundson, a ne
gro man in Fayette county, the brother
of George Speer, the negro who was
hung for the same offense last Friday,
committed the hellish deed of rape upon
i the person of Mrs. Lump Kennedy, on
Monday evening. Her husband had gone
to Jonesboro on business. After commit
ting the deed, he told Mrs. Kennedy
if she told her husband he would kill her.
But she informed her husband on his re
turn of the outrage, and he secured the
services of Messrs. Tillman Patterson,
Matt Harris, B. W. liiggars and her two
brothers, to stand guard, and he again left
the premises. As soon as he was gone,
the negro went into the dwelling, and
again attempted the deed. The parties
advanced, but their approach was be
trayed by the barking of a yard dog, and
he made his escape. As he ran he was
shot at several times, and it is thought
that several shot took effect- The negro
is abou: five feet high, spare made, black,
large white eyes, full mouth, thin face,
and wears a suit of dark jeans clothes,
coarse boots and narrefw brimmed black
hat Let every one look out for the
scoundrel and arrest him on sight, that
justice may be done him in a summary
manner, for this terrible evil must be
stopped, and the faster such hellians are
put out of the way the better for the
country. Our women most and will be
protected, let it cost what it may. No
man with the true instinct of a gentle
man can but see the necessity of and ap
prove of lynch law in such cases.

over the bank of the Georgia Railroad
at a point near Atlanta, carrying with
them a wagon, two bales of cotton and a
man and boy. The fall was between
twelve and fifteen feet, and all fell into
the ditch some two or three feet below
the track. The freight train that left
Atlanta at 7:30 p. m. ran against one of
the horses, disabling him. The man,

escaped serious injury.

Perry Home Journal: “Mr. J. W.
Clarke, while riding in the country the
other day, came across a medium sized
yellow dog lying in the woods dead. On
a close examination a squirrel was found
in the dog’s mouth all swallowed except
the tail. It was evident from the cir
cumstances, including the absence of any
mark of violence on the dog, that the
latter had caught the squirrel, and being
too greedy, had become choked to death
in the effort to swallow it whole. We
know people who might learn a moral
from this circumstance.
This from the Newnan Herald : We
had the pleasure of meeting at the New
nan Hotel the venerable Mrs. John
Dougherty, who for near forty years pre
sided over the domestic affairs of that
hotel, then called the Dougherty House,
and known throughout the South as one
of the best hotels in the land. This
lady is now in her seventy-sixth year,
and in her neat bl&ok alpaca dress and
snow white cap she looks very attractive,
and is very healthy and vigorous for her
age. When we expressed our opin
ion as as to how well she look
ed, she brightened up and remarked,
“ that’s what they all say, and I don’t
know but what I may yet be on the
market again.” This lovely old lady has
outlived her husband and all her children,
and the only blood kin she has left in
Coweta county is her little grand-daugh
ter, tho daughter of Byrd Berry, Esq.;
but she is tenderly cared for by her two
sons in-law, Judge Bigby and Byrd Berry,
who are both able end willing to shield
the old lady down the declivity of old
age until she shall be gathered again to
the husband and children she loved so
well.
Atlanta Constitution has this: About
twelve days ago a man by the name of J.
H. Logan was arrested in this city by
Detective Jones, upon a charge of steal
ing between three and four hundred dol
lars from a Mr. N. 11. Cook, Treasurer of
Johnson county, Texas. The facts
which were communicated to the detec
tive, an 1 which led to the arrest, are as fol
lows: “Cook and a man named Woodward
were in partnership in Cleburn, Johnson
county, Texas, in the grocery business.
Cook was also the County Treasurer, and
had Logan in his employ. Some three or
four weeks ago Logan, as Cook alleges,
took the money and left, but upon leav
ing took Woodward’s wife with him,
to help him spend it, and left his
own wife behind. Woodward soon fol
lowed the runaway pair brim full of
wrath, and vowing vengeance. They
covered their tracks, however, so well,
that, although he came to Atlanta after
them, he could not find them. After
searching the city thoroughly with our
detectives, Woodward gave up the chase
and returned to Texas; but before leaving,
he placed a full description of Logan in
Detective Jones’ hands. A few days after
Woodward left Logan turned up, and was
at once arrested, as above stated. Now,
it seems that on bis way home, Woodward
began to cast about to devise some way
of comforting himself for his wife’s
desertion, and it occurred to him
that as Logan had stolen his wife, it
would boa good return for him to
run olf with Logan’s wife. So, upon
his return he broached the sub
ject, and the deserted wife listened to
reason. The upshot is that Logan and
Woodward succeeded in effecting a wife
trr.de, and that, too, without seeing or
consulting each other at all upon the sub
ject. At last accounts Mrs. Logan and
Mr. Woodward had retired to parts un
known. Logan nad separated from Mrs.
Woodward somewhere, it is supposed in
Rome, and was alone when he was ar
rested in Atlanta. He denies stealing
either the money or the lady. After hold
ing him here about twelve days, Jones
yesterday discharged him, as the parties
in Texas have refused to come or send
after him. Logan bore the news of his
wife’s elopement with equanimity, and
says he is going back to Texas.
Gavan Greenway, a white man,indicted
for horse stealing, when brought before
Judge Hopkins in Atlanta a shott time
since for trial, obtained a continuance by
swearing that two witnesses who could
establish his innocence were absent. On
Saturday the case was again called up,
when, to the astonishment of every one,
Greenway plead guilty. Judge Hop
kins immediately brought the matter to
the attention of the grand jury, and the
result was an indictment for perjury.
Green way was then sentenced by Judge
Hopkins to ten years in the penitentiary
for horse stealing and four years for per
jury. The Judge commented very ably
and emphatically upon this extraordinary
case. He called the prisoner’s attention
to his folly and criminality in thus at
tempting to deceive the court with a lie,
and a lie, too, which must necessarily
have been detected. He said that the
second crime was even more heinous than
the first, and had the prisoner acted
truthfully he would have had but one sen
tence, while now he will have two.
Albany iV r ew: We beg to keep our
people reminded of the fact that the Fair
of the South Georgia Agricultural and
Mechanical Association will begin at
Thomasville, Tuesday, 20th inst. —one
week from next Tuesday—and continue
five days. This Fair promises to be one
of great attraction, not only as an exhi
bition of the products of South Georgia
and Florida, and our mechanical indus
tries, but as an occasion for sight
seeing, social enjoyment, and personal
gratification from contact with the
thousands who will attend. Thomas
county is one of the most productive
counties in the State, and her population
stands high for intelligence, enterprise
and thrift, and all her resources will be
exerted to make the Fair a success and of
marked interest to exhibitors and visit
ors. The whole of Southwest Georgia
should feel proud of this Association, and
give evidence of proper appreciate of
its great objects. We hope to see Dough
erty and surrounding counties liberally
represented. The people of Thomas are
our people, and there should be closer in
timacy, more frequent intercourse, and
greater reciprocity of sentiment and in
terests. They are a progressive people,
and are doing their whole duty in agri
culture, horticulture, mechanics, aits,
etc., and we cannot fail to de
rive some benefit from the exhibi
tion of their attainments. Besides, they
are hospitable and love their neighbors ;
their interests, in every branch of in
dustry, are identical with ours, and what
ever tends to their benefit cr disadvantage
affects ns in the same way, and we say,
therefore, that it should be our pleasure
as well as duty to go down tn masse and
see how far they have advanced in the
industries they will exhibit week after
next. The premium is liberal and com
prehensive, embracing everything in ag
riculture; mechanics and the arts, stock,
poultry, grand tourney, base ball, and
grand tournament ball on Friday evening.
Special trains will run daily, and the
rates will be s' low that all can afford
to go.

the honorable court have been detained,
and feel constrained to place the fault
with the State Legislature, as a plain and
simple jury law is needed: also, that
John Cathran, convicted of manslaughter,

that the county jail is an unfit place even
for prisoners; that the accounts of
county officers are correct; that the roads
should be improved; the people should

,-ahe Jacksonville Union says that re
cently a colored boy employed in Melton
&, Tate’s fish house struck a v , m black
spider (one carrying a large m. i bag)
that was running up the wall, tor the
purpose of destroying it. The blow
crushed it, and threw back a quantity of
the glutinous mass of the bag into the

washes, etc., the pain was relieved and
the swelling gradually went down.
The Constitution says that Col. Simkins
has in his garden in Monticello a hundred
stalks or more of the finest cotton we

“Cheatham” variety, and the stalks,
which send forth numerous branches, are

is honestl> of the opinion that au acre of
this cotton would yield at least five ordi
nary bales. He covered nine full grown
bolls with the palm of his hand. No
doubt this variety of cotton will prove
the most profitable to our planters.

Jacksonville Union: A telegram from
Key West announces that C. M,
Cespedes, the Cuban Republican candi
date for the Mayoralty, is elected. A
late Key West paper announced that he
had withdrawn his name, but this action
was of course reconsidered. This gen
tleman is the only remaining son of the
late General and President Cespedes of
the Cuban Republic. The Key West
Dispatch, which at first opposed the
ticket supports it now, as follows; “When
the Cuban movement first made itself
manifest—we mean their extraordinary
exertions to obtain possession of the city
government by nominating their own
ticket, we determined to oppose it as
being unwise, and have to this time,
with what little influence we possessed,
urged them to withdraw their candidates,
and be satisfied w T ith a fair representa
tion on the Board of Aldermen. But the
last action of the Common Counoil, in
augurating on the very last day of a long
and tedious season, a nejv quarantine,
more restricted, more damaging to our
prospects aud interests than the one we
have just passed through, has changed
our convictions, and we are willing
now that anybody shall govern Key
West, except Key Westers. Since the
beginning of tho war which first
gave an impetus to the growth aud pro
gress of the city, our Aldermen have
shown their utter imbecility and inability
to grasp the advantages thrust upon
them, have cast aside the generous aids
which nature herself has thrown into
their hands, and allowed our island —
naturally fitted to be the healthiest,

The Proposed Negro Exodus.
Savahkah, Ga., October 15, 1875.
Editor Mominq Netes :
For several dava you have been barling at
my head heavy philippics about my African
project, but you invariably connect me with
the Liberian colonization enterprise. I
hope you will do me the justice to discon
nect me from Liberia, as lam no advocate
of that institution. I do hold, however,
that God, in permitting the slavery of the
negro in this country, intended it to re
dound to the civilization and Christiani
zation of Africa, otherwise we would have
to charge our Maker with folly. I further
believe that we (the colored people), like the
Israelites, have ultimately to return
to our father land, and carry with us the
form of civilization and the practice of that
Christian religion we have learned from
your white people. This bas been my
opinion for several years, but I have partially
concealed them, because the idea has been
so revolting to my people that I dared not
utter it without incurring their denuncia
tion, but opinion of late having resolved
itself into the most inexorable conviction, I
have determined to speak as I feel I ought,
regardless of wiiat may be said.
I by no means advocate the emigration of
the colored people in mass to Africa; such a
policy would be impracticable aud ruinous
to the object contemplated. But I hold that
the time has arrived for the colored people
to begin the work Providence has assigned
ns.
I believe that the wh tes of this country
will ultimately have to do as the Egyptians
did—lend us their e>r rings, finger rings,
and other precious ornaments and jewels,
or, in other words, give us aid to return to
ourfatherland and build up a negro nation
ality, that we may teach our brethren there
the principles of civil government and the
religion of our Lord and Savior Jesus
Christ. Could we get possession of Fer
nando Po, St. Thomas’ Island, or some of
those healthy and salubrious islands iu the
Gulf of Guinea, we could carry up the Niger
river enough of moral, religious and intel
lectual e llightenment to redeem Africa in a
hundred years.
You may ask why I have not gone? My
reply is, one, two or three is Dot sufficient;
we want the foundation of a colony. Give
me a few shir- \ a few years of subsistence,
and some oid arms to protect ourselves, aud
I will raise the men, and in five years from
to-day I will show you a negro nationality
somewhere on the continent of Africa that
will bo an everlasting monument of honor
to the whites of this country, and result iu
the salvation of thousands of benighted
Africans. I have aleady written to three
millionaires asking them to aid me with
means to start the work, bat up to this
time they have not responded. But it will
be done sooner or later.
Your humble servant,
H. M. Tcbneb.
THE COURSE OF COTTON.
iievlew of the Past Week.
The New York Bulletin of the 12th says
there has at least been quite a change in
the general status of tho market, and for a
portion of the period under review matte's
were very lively. Operators for a rise have
had pretty much all the advantage, and a
gradual hardening of values was the result,
the advance proving of a general character,
and covering both spo ts and futures. The
base of improvement appeared to be some
what doubtful, but could be traced to the
steadier tone at Liverpool and the free ex
port movement at the close of last week,
followed by a continued demand with the
opening of this week. Speculative manipu
lations, too, have unquestionably had a very
large influence in contributing strength, aud
it is pretty certain that a large number of
old contracts have beeii covered, with some
strong indications that a considerable new
short interest has been created. Indeed,
taking the average attendance on the Ex
change and the general tone is still very
“bearish,” the present upward turn being
talked of as simply a flurry, soon to pass
away, and merely the Datural outgrowth of
a well organized attempt to protect spot
cotton for a while, and get out additional
contracts for a subsequent break. Opera
tors who, as wo noted last week, were com
mencing to think well of the market, have
had their comideucc still further strength
ened, and many seem to think the lowest
rates have been seeu. Dependence is placed
upon a good home demand and a steady
call from abroad, the iattertheory strength
ened by a brighter look of affairs tele
graphed from Manchester, and a slight re
viving indication on the India goods trade.
L porters certainly have been making au
outlet for a considerable Amount of cotton
bought either through notices or by sam
pler, but have also, iu common with spin'
ners, showp much greater caution since the
cost increased. The arrivals at the ports
have continued very free during the week,
but the weather reports not quite so favor
able as heretofore. Bains were noted over
several sections early in the week, and frost
was hinted at along the northern edge of
the cotton belt.
The aggregate sales of “spots” are con
siderably larger than last week, and have
been just about evenly divided betweeu the
home trade and exporters, while prices
have advanced considerably and the tone
was pretty sirong throughout. Some of the
leading shippers have remained quiet, and
still talked of absence of margins and dis
couraging advices, but enough have been
found willing to operate, both on English
and Continental account, to none but a
pretty full amount of stoc;;. Since the ad
dition to cost, however, tho demand has
shown greater caution, and at the close
of the week not much was taken ex
cept to fill engaged freight room,
etc. Spinners, too, were less will
ing to pay extreme figures, and gradu
ally brought their orders down to a close
calculation on early wants, and made many
selections from parcels on pier. The addi
tion to cost for the week vas 2c., mostly on
the low grades. While buyers, willing to
pay full market rates, have experienced no
real difficulties in obtaining such supplies
as they required, the ofierings have at no
time been free or liberal on spot, the stock
keeping within comparatively easy managed
proportions. Latterly, however, the amount
available to arrive was larger, with a margin
in favor of buyers, as c impared with rates
ruling on the transactions for immediate
delivery.
For future delivery there has been a large
business and a pretty steady upward turn
on values until toward the close, when some
irregularity was shown. The strong and
rather “uppish” tone at Liverpool gave the
first start, and indeed may be considered
the main base of improvement throughout,
but supporting influences have been fouud
in the larger business and increased costs on
spots, and less brilliant wetther reports from
the South, and all coupled with a strong
manipulative movement to force the advance
to the ful est possible limit, A large number
of contracts have been covered during
the week, but brokers report very few pur
chases for investment, and there was also
said to be an absence ot orders from th
South, either to buy or cover. This and
next month have ruled much the strongest
ou all operations, partly thcough the work
ings of a small combination which, it is sup
posed, had in view the “balling” of rates to
rhe greatest extreme in order to create a
new “short” interest, and partly to an ap
parent belief that October was oversold and
might be cornered, in view of the amounts
going abroad, and the comparatively small
average stock shown.

SAVANNAH .MARKET.
WKXKLT REPORT.
OFFICE OF THE MORNING NKWS,\
Savannah, October 19, 1875. (
General Renarks. — There lias been an im
proved tone in trade the past week, though the
volnme of business transacted has not been so
large aj the week previous; however, it was mod
erately active with a fair demand for reassort-,
ments from the interior and by the local retail
ers. The only change in the dry goods business
has been a slight reduction in the quotations
of domestic cotton goods and prints.
The recent cool weather has created a better
demand for woollen fabrics of all kinds, and
winter goods generally. The grocery and pro
vision trada has been more active than in the
dry goods line, and qui:e a large aggregate
amount of business has been done. Price
changes have been few. Ihe only one worthy of
mention is the slight decline in meats, with a
prospect of a still larger one, as the
Western markets are becoming more quiet,
with quotations on the decline. The financial
market is without change. Money is plentiful,
with a good demand, at the usual bank rates.
Stocks continue firm and are in good demand.
Cotton.— There has been considerable excite
ment in the cotton market the past week at
tended by an advance for both spots and
futures. The offering stock has been
very fair, with a good demand for ex
port, and though buyers have the past
two days been offering lower than quota
tions, holders have generally been firm, and in
most cases have obtained full prices. The ex
citement in the market was, in part, due to the
frost in Mississippi, which seemed to have alarm
ed the short interest both in Liverpool and on
this side of the water. This short interest proved
to belarge. and to a demand to cover contracts the
demand is generally ascribed. But, aside from
frost, the crop reports have not been
sa isfactory. Picking is hindered by a
variety of circumstances, among which much
sickness and election excitements are conspicu
ous. The daily remarks on the market pub
lished below will give an idea of the local
feeling and transactions daring the week.
To-day the market has been dull ' w ith
an easier feeling and a decline of >;c.
on middling, low middling and good ordinary,
caused by unfavorable advice- from controlling
markets. The market closed dull and easier at
