W^dv^iay Morning, May 15 1872. £jp° We are exceedingly gratified to l^arti that the Milledgeville Central Crop Observation and Statistical de partment has organized, and is now issuing its first circulars. We have but little doubt of its sue cess if the planters of this State and the Southern States are w se; for the gentlemen who have charge of t is de partment are men of energy and intel ligence. The President of this department is Col Nathan McGehee, who is web and favorably known. The Colonel is a planter. The Vice Presidents are Mr. Richard N. Lamar and Mr. John H. Furman; of these Mr. Lamar is planting, and Mr. Furman is a gieat planter’s man. “Jolly Varden.”—See this merry young gentleman’s spicy news letter in our paper of to-day. Wonder if he’s a brother of the famous “Dolly’'? We congratulate Sparta on having such a racy young writer as a citizen. We shall be happy to hear from “Jolly V.’* often. The Press Convention.—From the reports of their proceedings given in tiie Atlanta papers, we should think the representatives of the press must have had a very pleasant time. The reception given them by Mrs. Dr- Westmoreland must have been de lightful whilst it lasted, but after they left we are told many of them com plaiued of being heart-hungry, and then what will their wives say? that is the rub. A GRKAT MISTAKE.' It is reported that Horace Greeley owes his nomination at Cincinnati to his supposed strength at the South.— Jfithut is the case, there never was a greater mistake, and a more foolish blunder. Outside of the Democratic party Mr. Greeley has very little strength, and probably could not get an electorial vote in all of the South ern States- If the Democracy should adopt the Cincinnati ticket, it will probably get the vote of nearly or quite every Southern State, but it the Democracy puts forth a separate and a popular ticket,Mr. Greeley’s strength at the South will be found but very small. We see that it is believed at the North that Mr. Greeley can con trol a large part of the negro vote.— This is a great delusion, the Radical negroes all vote with the Radical of fice holders, and of course they will all vote tor Grant, it Mr. Greeley is sup ported by the Democracy those negroes who generally vote with the white men wiii vote for him, otherwise lie will get no support from the negroes at the South, and Mr. Greeley’s friends need not make any calculations on the negro vote. Where the carcass is, there will the vultures be gathered to gether, and where the offices are there will the negroes flock* They have been fed from the public crib until many of them do not know how to live without it. The article below from the Telegraph and Messenger is perfectly correct and in point, and Mr. Greeley and his friends sooner or later will find it so. The Nkgko Vote.—We see that the New York Sun and other Liberal Republican papers entertain very san guine expectations of a large negro vote for Mr. Greeley, and the philosopher himself is reported as having express ed great confidence in the good opin ion and partiality of the negroes of the South particularly. There is nothing more idle or groundless than such anticipations.— The mass of the negro voters iu the South will go for Grant, and as to the North, Mr. Greeley’s friends have al ready had a hint from the proceedings of the Negro State Convention at Troy, on the Sth, which unanimously pledged the votes of the New York negroes to the same direction. 'The sooner the Greeley men can shake oft that delusive anticipation the wiser and safer they will be. If Mr. Greeley secures the support of the Democrats he will probably carry all the Southern Ststes except, South Car olina ; but it will be by the white votes and such scattering negro con tributions as the personal influence of the white voters may be able to secure for him. As to any special popularity lie or his friends may think he holds with the negroes, it will not add an omnibus load to his backers among the colored race. If Mr- Greeley and his friends are not aware of this fact, it is time they should be, and govern themselves accordingly. Let them take the testi mony of any or all Southern men of common intelligence and reasonable opportunities for observation, and they will hardly find a conflict of opinion on this point. Greeley, if elected at all, will be elected by the white popu lation. Grant will pre tty much mo nopolize the votes of three classeB negroes, bondholders and office-hold ers. London, May 11.—The Post confirms the report negotiations regarding indirect damages are dead. It states positively that England has withdrawn from the Geneva arbitration, WHEIIE ARE net A NO IF WE ARE NOT T1 ERE, WHERE AKE WE f To speak with words of soberness and truth, the majority of the Demo cratic papers are in just such a fix a9 that. Surely those papers now indulging in such a UaLant blathering for Horace Greelev have not given their subject due consideration, and while he has told what he “ knows about farming” they are ranting on what they know about the Presidential campaign and election. But to be serious: If the National Democratic Convention nominates Horace Greeley, or does not nominate at all—simply endorsing him—then, and only then, are we for him ; other wise we will see the old white hat bob op and down iu the storm, arid sink to the depths of oblivion. In the mean while we propound a few questions to all; and first we will begin with an illustration, which means no reflection at all: We reckon that everybody remembers 1864; Sherman was then advancing ori Joe Johnston, and Gen eral Joe was retreating and killing, about five to one; Confederate Gov ernment doesn't like General Joe’s tactics and supercedes him, thereby acknowledging to the world and Un cle Sam, that all of that lost territory was a military mistake, and there the Confederacy made its error, for if Gen. Johnston bad not been relieved, Sher man never would have made his march to the sea. We have all long ago igreed upon that. Now some papers would have the De mocratic party to make the same fear ful mistake, viz : acknowledge all that the Democratic party has said and lone up to this time to be a false policy ; it must change its tactics they say, and go in for Horace Greeley, and it the Democratic party does change its tactics, as we have said before, we are with it if it ruus into the ground, just as we were with the Confederacy. Suppose, however, that the Demo crats learn wisdom by the past, how (hen? There are other good liberal Republicans besides H. G., and, as this movement clearly proves, that even there are extreme Radicals who are disgusted with the way their present office-holders have managed—so much so that they are for pulling out. Does that not show their discontent to be deep seated? Asa matter of course it is so. We, then, are in favor of this: the nomination of a candidate by the De eratie party who will fill the bill ex actly, and who will be far more accept able to the people than Horace Gree ley ; and the Democrats have Charles Francis Adams and Judge Davis, be sides plenty of good Democrats, to choose from. Horace Greeley says that “ if the Democrats try to take advantage of (he split in the Radical ranks” that he will withdraw and support the Phila delphia nomination ; and in the face of ihat is Horace to be trusted? On the other h<nd, if the Democrats adopt the policy, Horace Greeley says i hat he is in lavor of, and nominates tn-m acceptable to Horace Greeley’s ideas, will Horace Greeley then come fuwti and support the Philadelphia nominee? If he does he will cut his own throat. In the meanwhile, it is the voice of the people over the entire South: -‘Any body rather than Grantbut is that the result of calm judgment, or are they led by their desire? We opine to the latter. Have the papers that are out and out for Greeley reflected this—that til they say is calculated to divide the Democratic party; so that in the event the Philadelphia Convention does not nominate Grant, their work will have delivered their party over to Radicalism bound hand and foot. Let all who are true Democrats await the action of their own party and be not over hasty. We are sorry to see that there are -ome in. the Democratic party who are desirous of dictating rather than advising. Democrats should stand “shoulder to shoulder,” and “where the offence is, let the great axe fall.” HYPERCRITICAL. A writer in the Telegraph and Messenger of the 9th inst., we do not suspect friend Clisby of any such non sense, but some Dolly Varden critic takes us to task for calling Chancellor Lipscomb, Doctor, and for mis-spelling his name. If we spelt the name wrong we certainly did not intend it, and as for the title we contend it is both respectful and correct. We believe he is a Doctor of Divinity, and it is a time honored custom to call Presidents of Colleges who are Doctors of Divin ity, Doctor. The President of Union College was always called Dr. Nott. The President of Brown University, Dr. Wnyland, and perhaps our critic may have heard of Dr. Dwight, Presi dent of Yale College. When paepd Whi;h is the Strongest? We expect to support the nominee of tiie Democratic Convention even if that nomiuee should be Horace Gree- For the Federal Union. LETTER FROM MACON. Macon, May 8, 1872.

Inour; an ^ prosperous for some miles, "hen weary of gazing at Nature s jewelry and inhaling breath of the morning opinion Horace Greeley will drive ofi ; more Democratic votes than he will get Republican. We are sorry that the Democratic Convention of Ten nessee acted so precipitately. But we hope they have not gone too far to retract. If so, we believe the De mocracy had better do without Ten nessee than to follow her lead. Gree ley’s strength at the South is all a humbug ; any State which the De mocracy can count for Horace Gree ley, they can carry mu'ch stronger without him- We hope the Demo cratic Convention will give us a strong Democratic ticket and risk the conse quences. Horace can never get the vote of the entire Democracy, and to endeavor to rally them on him wo fear will demoralize the party. WE LEARN, Through a letter received from one of the most prominent ex-U. S. Sen ators (democratic) of Illinois, that “the democratic masses of his State will not support Horace Greeley, in any event, whether the National Demo cratic Convention nominates him or does not nominate at all.” Now if the Senator is right and we know him to be rarely ever wrong, are not some people building up a most ridiculous superstructure for them selves? The whole question is simply this. We of the South want “anybody rath er than Grant,” but the Northern De mocracy has none of our home issues troubling them—and the Northern Democratic party owes its existence, during the past years of gloom and de spondency, to the exertions of those untiring men who lost position when the Democrats were defeated, but have never ceased battling manfully for the right. The majority of those men who are the old Democratic office-hold ers, look upon the Cincinnati Conven tion, as the destroyer of their hopes and they will in no event support Horace Greeley. For the Federal Union. CROP PROSPECTS. We have in the past two weeks traveled over a considerable portion of Georgia and Alabama. In Cherokee Georgia all crops were promising, and the wheat especially presented an excellent appearance, where it bad not been winter killed. North Georgia was not then suff-ring for rain very much, but we presume the cotton crop is by this time.— Wheat had best not have rain until it has ceased blooming and the heads commence filling, then rain will make a lieavv wheat crop. The great product of North Geor gia should be hay, but the local rates of freight on ihe Western and Atlantic Railroad, in connection with the other roads of our State has killed its pro duction ; a matter that is a crying shame and disgrace to our State. Through all ot Middle Georgia the cotton crop on gray sandy lands bids fair to be a failure, for it is dying for want of rain and planters have i.o seed to replant with, thus that class ol land is losing its stand of cotton. On the red or clay lands, where the cotton has come up, it looks much better. Our observation in Georgia and Ala bama leads us to conclude, after a care ful estimate, there is at least one-third of the cotton crop yet to come up. We learn that nearly the same state of affairs continues to the Mississippi river. West of the Mississippi the prospect for a cotton crop is said nev er to have been better. We have made up our mind that without extraordinary seasons the crop of 1S72 will not exceed three million of bales, and that guess is at present our maximum. The men who are bleating out a four million bale crop have failed to consider together the three most im portant features of the crop: 1st, the wet weather east of the Mississippi which extended over a majority of the cotton growing territory of that sec tion, prevented anything like fair pre pa ration. 2d. The teriible meanness and loss of cotton seed from rot, and unaccounl able causes. 3d. This terrible dry weather that has caught and is holding back one-third of the cotton crop We are not immediately interested in farming, but we feel a deep inter in such good company, we hope Dr.jest for our friends the fanners, and we Lipscomb will not consider himself j give no prejudiced statement. laid out either cold or hot. We do not fear the recoil of oui blunderbuss in the least but believe there is more danger of our Dolly Varden critic bursting from internal pressure than of our being kicked over. The great tone of the Democratic press ot the country is agairst a hasty judgment in reference to the Cincin nati movement, but to submit the question to the decision of a National Democratic Convention, soon to be called, and in the meantime to inter pose no obstacle to the adoption of any couise that may then be found best to meet the emergency presented. In the terse language of the New York World, the temper of the three parties at present may be thus ex pressed: “The Liberals confident; the Radicals sneering; the Democrats waiting.”—Sav. News: Nashville, May 10.—In the Tennessee State Democratic Convention, B. J Lee, presided. Got. Brown was renominated tor Governor. The resolutions in affect endorse Greeley and Brown. The Con vention elects Senatorial delegates to Baltimore and leaves the selection of the Others to the respective districts, We are glad to see that more corn has been planted, and we will close by advising our fiiends the farmers, that wherever they lose their stand of cot ton in the row, to replant all such spots and places in corn. Judging from present weather in dications we think that corn planted about the 1st of June will do well. Amicus. Says the Columbus Sun, of Saturday: The Social World.—At Chunne- nuggee Ridge on Wednesday, at the residence of Captain E. Troupe Ran dall, Miss Sallie B. J-rter was married by Rev. Mr. Ellison, of Union Springs, to Mr. S. M. Carter, of Murray county, Georgia, There were no attendants. A large wedding party was given. Among these present, writes a friend, was “the brilliant and fascinating Mrs. Lee Jordan, of your city, and her glorious little niece, Miss Fickhn, the beautiful Miss Mary Carter, of North Georgia, and many lovely maidens from Alabama. Never was there a handsomer bride.” floral the sweet I fell into meditation. My musings were of that ambitious and hopeful nature which generally form the material out of which young people rear those costly structures known as “castles in the air.” I had built my edifice and was about peopling it with ideal beings which I hoped would one day be realities. Hope was at its highest success; was at its crowning point when I came to grief. I had suffered the reins to fall loosely in my fingers when they suddenly tightened, and with a bound that almost threw me out of the buggy my horse dashed aside, and then sped on in a full run. On we went in as mad a race as that of John Gilpin. “ So like an arrow swift he flew." By a great deal of sawing at the bit I finally tempered the mettle of my steed to a much slower gait, and suc ceeded in turning his head toward the fence so as to stop him. In springing from my buggy I found I had split a nice tight-fitting boot, and that my buggy was injured in several places. Necessity is a very inventive origin ator, and I was not slow in tying the broken cross-beam so as to proceed— all the while bestowing a few emphat ic expletives on the old basket which had frightened my horse and caused the damage to my boot and buggy. I re-entered my vehicle, cured tem porarily of castle building, and deter mined to be more careful in reining in my fractious beast. Tobacco is a won derful soother of the rutiled feelings. I find it a good curative for small vexa tions ; so I lighted my cigar and reach ed Milledgeville at a much later hour than 1 intended. On inquiring I learned that Messrs.! Parker & Collins were master work men in repairing and making buggies 1 took my vehicle to them and there learned that it was worse damaged than I had supposed. It could not be repaired until the ensuing day. Mr Parker very politely showed me a number oi very handsome side-spring patent-wheeled buggies of their own manufacture, with all the new im provements in style, and handsomely painted by Mr. Gray. These can be procured at the reasonable sum of SI65 each. Parties needing handsome buggies should read Messrs. Parker & Collins’ advertisement in your paper and patronize home manufactures. Hav ing a day of leisure—Tuesday— I went to see the “Dolly Varden” Club beat the “Old Capitol” at base ball. Not wishing to exhibit a torn boot to the fair damsels of Milledge ville, I stepped into the boot score of Mr. Fred Haug, intending to get mine repaired. By a most fortu nate accident he had on baud a pair ot his own make that fitted my foot neat ly. I purchastd them at a very reas onable figure; left my old boot for repairs, determined hereafter always to get my boots made there. Mr. Haug has a line assortment of shoes at low rates; and it he has not advertised he ought to advertise in the Federal Union, so that the country people will know where to go to get good bar gains. I want our Sparta boys to play base ball against the clubs mentioned. The latter are expert players, but I must boast a little, and say our boys can't be beaten. Hearing in your city of Miss Logan’s lectures in Macon, 1 came hither to hear her. I imagined I should be sur prised at the novel spectacle of seeiug a lady enter and address an audience; but Miss Logan came iu so gracefully, and spjhe in such a racy and common- sense manner that it seemed a most natural thing for her to be on the stage. Miss Logan is tall, fine looking and full of anecdote and fun. This, with her knowledge of human nature and cultivation on the stage, gives the great power in swaying the feeliugs ot tier audience and makes her a charm ing lecturer. Her sentiments are strictly moral. Her telling blows tall heaviest on vice and folly of every description; and there is nothing in her lecture which the most refined gentleman or lady in our land would be shocked to listen to As I came Irom the Olive Logan lecture. I passed a large hall brilliantly lighted, within which the sounds of powerful oratory were audible. The hour was late- A gray-coated po liceman lounged near by on a goods- box, and I enquired of him if there was divine service in the building re ferred to. “ Divine service !” exclaim ed he in evident compassion at my mid night darkness of ignorance “ Divine service! No indeed, its only them Radicals a workin round tharr ” I soon learned from this official that the Rads of the Grant stripe, Akerman, Adams, Apeoria Bradley, and “ all sich,” had been holding a State Con vention in Macon, and that what I was listening to was the Convention “ tapering off.” I could not hear the orator’s language, but it had a Bunker Hill, Fourth of July “pomp and cir cumstance” in it. Floating on the oight air were odors: a companion thought them odors of the China tree, now in bloom, but I thought they smelt like African blossoms. The cotton crop along the route ap pears sickly and backward. Farmers complain of not getting a “ good stand” and the ex-King bids fair to be less prominent aud lucrative to the impoverished South thau ever. Excuse haste. Jolly Varden. REPUBLICAN CONVENTION.

Therefore, The Cincinnati Nomination.— The nomination of Horace Greeley for the Presidency by the Cincinnati Liberal Republican Convention, will take the country by surprise, as here tofore any mention of his name in connection with that High position has been received with a smile of derision. He is a tolerably good man, in his way. full of crotchets and vagaries, but we believe honest and conscien tious on most subjects. What his strength may be, and to what extent he may draw off supporters from Grant we are unable to predict at this time, but we doubt if any overwhelming en thusiasm is aroused among the people in his behalf, Certainly he cannot, nor can his friends, expect any consid eration at the hands of the Democra cy. For two generations he has been our bitter and unrelenting opponent and reviler, and it would be a loss of all self-respect for the Democracy to rally around a standard borne by Hor ace Greeley !— Terre Haute (Indiana) Journal, May 4.
