as rather a hard one. but they must re
member the fire whlcn occurred two year*

then,-uairier that the city father* are
actuated by the most prudential motives.
The action ia thus early, in order to re
strain the merchants from bringing out
*1*1* of Otis incendiary material. The
Baord of U ndcrwriters long ago notified
th* msrehonti that eue-hslf per cent, a
month would be charged for insurance
upon buildings, and stocks of goods where
fire-works are kept for sale. This, to
gether with the action of the City Coun-
<dl. will be apt to keep fire-works out of

were disposed to risk the consequences.

Whenever wo recommend a worthy ob

—That of benefitting those who avail

it. we most heartily recommend it to
those of our read*!* who are afflicted with
any kind of Cough or Lung Affection.
With our moat distinguished physicians,
ami oldest citixens, the merits of tbo
Globe Flower Syrup are as familiar as—
tho Into rebellion, and to all who are
needing a safe, pleasant, and most effica

that they use tho Globe Flower Cough

Among the rasas tried in tbe United

offence in. connection with tbe Presiden

in the court report, as we were enabled
to procure it, aa "indictment-” From a

Wonxick was one of the manager* of tbe
Presidential election at Lester's District,
Burke county. After be bad served as a
manager for about five hour*, be remark
ed be wonted a drink, and asked leave of
the other managers- to go and get a
drink; the permission was given, and
Warnock went to a store about one hun
dred yards off, remaining ten or fifteen
minutce. and returned. While be was
gone those in charge of the votes counted
them, and Wornock has l«n indicted
under tbe act of Congreve of 1870, for not
counting tbe Totes, when in fact the
votes were counted while he was absent.
Tbe question is asked, is it a crime for a
manager of on election to go off and get
a drink? Warnock said, aa he was Fur
fur the drink, that he was “tired of
counting Radical vote*." and it is stated
that was tbe crime which resulted in bis
being indicted. The jury was ont from
twelve o'clock Saturday to dork, and it
is not known whether they have agreed
or not.

The Thomasvillo Times of Saturday
boa the following:
On last Tuesday. Mr. Juniper Hall,
who has been living on Mr. Henry
Wycbe's plantation, in the Duncanville
dintriirt, the past year, came to town, ac
companied by four hands employed on
the place, bringing with him nnd selling
to Messrs, I. Kubitshek A Brother, seven
bales of cotton. The han.lv started
homo in the afternoon. Mr. Hall staying
in town an hoar or two longer, attending
to some bnaincss, when lie left also. Not
coming homo that night his famUy be
came alarmed at his absence, sent to
town nnd have sinco lieon engaged in
trying to find tho missing husband and
father. Yesterday evening we learned
from parties jnst from Duncanville that
two or the four hands who were in town
on Tnosdny confessed to having killed
Mr. Jfall and putting him in the cypress
swamp, just beyond tho McLean place,
some eight miles from town. This must
have Ins n aliout tbo place where Mr.
Hall overtook tho wagons. It is sup-
1 rosed that the negroes thought Mr.
!IaU bad received the money for his cot
ton, nnd kiUod him for that, or some al
tercation may havo occurred, resulting
in tho bloody tragedy. When our in
formant passed up tho road Dr. Robin
son nnd a large number of citizens were
e» To il? to the place indicated, for the
purpose of finding the body. As wo are
just on tho eve of going to press, we ore
unable to giro nny further particulars.
Messrs. Kubitshek A Brother inform ns
that they did not pay Mr. HaU nny
money on Tnesday.

lrnntlry In Atlanta
Tho Convention of Southern Grangers,
which met in Atlanta on the 25th Novem
ber, resolved itself into a mass-mocting
on Wednesday, with Rot. D. E. Butler,
of Madison, os chairman.
On motion, a Committee on Bnsineas
was appointed, who, » f ter retiring, sub
mitted tho following report, which was
adopted:
1. That it is tho poUcy of cotton plan
ters to utilize the value of cotton os much
as practicable, first to manufacturing os
large a portion os possible of tho staple,
and tho balance to sell direct to the man
ufacturer.
2. Resolved. That wo recognize tho
moral obligation and the wise policy of
employing all practicable means to can
cel existing debts, and that tbo creditor
manifest forbearance, and that the debtor
exhaust all available resources to respond
to the stsiwia upon him.
3. Resolved, That we advise cotton
planters now embarrassed with debt to
seek tbe most favorable terms with their
creditors as to the cole of their cotton.
D. Wyatt Aiken, of South Carolina,
offered the following resolutions, which
were adopted:
Whereas. Congress is empowered by
tho Constitution of the United States to
protect inventive genius and foster the
development of the mechanic arts by re
newing for a term of year* to inventor*
the exclusive right to their discoveries;
and
Whereas, This protection often becomes,
now-a-days. hurtful to society because it
creates and sustains injurious monopo
lies; therefore
Rwolvcd. That this Convention,
through its Pre-iident, do petition Con
gress to so modify the existing patent
Laws at their approaching session, as
hereafter to require all articles covered
by a renewal of patent to be sold by the
patentee at not more than twenty-fire
per cent, above cost of manufacturing.
The Business Committee made the fol
lowing report:
Whereas, The Southern States possess
vast mines of coal and iron, which, for
need of proper development, are now use
less, and consequently valueless; and
Whereas, The miner must be fed and
clothed os well a* the manufacturer, ren
dering the fanner, the manufacturer and
thp miner mutually dependent on each
other, agd every aid given to one of
these branches ci industry is mutual in
iti benefits. Therefore,
Resolved. That we look upon tho de
velopment of tbe cool and iron interests
of cur section as a matter demanding not
only the attention of the capitalist and
financier, bat of every man in our section
who desires our future prosperity and ad
vancement.
Whereas, It is a well established fact
that the surplus products, of all descrip-
tkas, arc yidueteaa to ns without a mar
ket, and that to seerue a profitable-mar
ket, cheap transportation is of prime im
portance to the prosperity, not only of
the agricultural, but of the commercial,
manufacturing and mining interests of
the country; and
Whereas, Our present moans of reach
ing market ore inadequate to our wonts
ze d the need of the country;
Resolved. That cheap transportation is
of the first importance to the country,
and that we will go heart and hand witii
our brethren ef the West in securing it.
Resolved. That w* look upon the con
struction of the Atlantic and Great West
ern Canal, and the island water commun
ication along the Gulf to*or.U the list,
as a matter of deep interest po the pros
perity of Georgia and the South, and we
therefore earnestly request our Represen
tatives in Congress and in the State Leg
islature, to urge by ev-vy proper means
its importance upon the I t-ieral Gcven.
ment. j
Resolved, That the resources of our
farmers are large, and the recup rative
energy of the country great, and that a
return to the cash system as soon as
practicable would in 'ir*- the preeperity of
the country on a solid basis.
IF-.-nlvt- i. That we recommend the Sta'
Grange at its next meeting shall appoint
a h:^te Ch.-mist, in order to protect Pa
trons of Husbandry against imposition
and worthless fertilizers.
Resolved. That we recommend the
Georgia Grange, an eight page weekly
pnl '.i-hed in Atlanta, oa a suitable paper
for the conveying of information useful
to the order, and that we recommend the
Georgia Grange to Patrons of Husbandry
and planters in this and other States.
The first, second, third, fourth and fifth
resolutions were adopted.
A morion to table the sixth resolution
waa kathgr the easting rote of the chair—
the Tcte standing 41 to 41.
Tbe resolutions elicited a prolonged
discussion.
Colonel T. P. Saffold moved Jo amend
by making the entire press of Georgia the
organs of the order.
The committee were allowed to with
draw it.
The Special Committee on refunding
the cotton tax made the following report
The majority report: That we re* pec
lively request our Representatives and
Senator* in Congress to urge the <
ment of a law restoring to the legitimate
claimant the mevwnfisniipiiNl tax im-
posed upon cotton crops of 1SG2 and 1SG7
inclusive
The minority report is os follows:
The minority report recommends that
our Senators and Representatives in Con
gress be requested to urge the pass-sage
of a bill refunding tbe tax collected;
first, to the party who held the cotton at
the time of passage of the act in 1662,
and all the balance of the tax to the pro
ducer and no other person, under such
proofs and regulations oa Congress in tho
act may prescribe.
The majority report was adopted.
Mr. T. Smith, of Washington county,
offered the following, which was adopted:
Resolved. That the resolution, os passed
by the meeting of yesterday, relative to
proportioning tbe crop in planting next
year, that is, one-third in small grain,
one-third in corn and one-third in cotton,
be token by each member of this conven
tion to his constituents, or a delegate of
granges of Patrons of Husbandry to each
of their granges, State and subordinate,
and imprees upon them the great im
portance of this resolution and urge that
it be carried out to the letter.
Mr. C. E. McGregor, of Warren, offered
Resolved, That the subordinate Granges
of Patrons of Husbandly in Georgia and
such other Cotton States os may so de
sire, request the Representatives of their
respective counties to have the existing
anon laws so amended os to make the
malicious burning of gin-houses a capital

Mr. D. Wyatt Aiken, of South Caro
lina, offered the following, which was

Protection to home industry can be ad

for revenue, then foreign products must
be purchased at the sacrifice of home
manufactures.

TItc Message,
Though dated or. the 1st, was not re
ceived or read till the a 'tern.v-n of yester-
nay—somewhere about one o’clock. The
‘wires being pre-orcupied by regular prers
dispatches and by a synopsis of the mes
sage, the document itself did not begin
to come till rabout four o'clock in the
afternoon, and its transmission was com
pleted at about one o'clock this morning.
It was transcribed almost altogether by
Mr. W. A. Benton, and his general suc
cess in the rendering merits our earnest
commendation. . -•
- We have no time or opportunity for
comments on the document. It covers a
multitude of topics, suggestions and re
commendations about which there will
naturally be a great discrepancy of opin
ion.
In style, it makes no pretensions, and
is to be judged by no rules.
Tbe reception and transmission of such
a document by a single operator, during
one sitting of nine hours, is a tiresome
achievement.

JOHNSON & SMITH,
Last Week’s Cotton Figures.
The cotton receipts for the week end
ing last Friday night were 123,879 bales
against 133.3S6 bales last week. 121,060
bales the previous week and 126,114 bales
three weeks since, making tbe total re
trace the first at September, 1873, 979,-
966 bale* against 1,141,436 bales for the
same period of 1872, showing a, decrease
since September 1,1873, of 1G1.451 boles.
Tbe interior port receipts were 40,753
bales, against 37.7GO the corresponding
week of last year. The shipmcqjs were
23,126, against 20,355, and the stocks
footed up 80,484, against 75,905 last year.
The visible supply of the Chronicle shows
1,970,315 bales, against 2.136JJ65 last
year, and 2,051.210 in 1871. showing a de-
of 166,061 boles as compared with
the supply at the corresponding date of
last year. Prices compare as folio'
middling uplands at Liverpool being tbe
standard: 1873,81 to8Jd; 1S72.9J tolOd;
1871, 91d.
Speaking of American shipments to
Liverpool, the Chronicle says:
At present, take middling uplands at
161c., their price in New York Wednesday
of this week—exchange, say 106—gold,109
—and freight. 9-16(o Id.—this, with one
commission paid, would bring the cost
price in Liverpool to over 9d., whereas the
quotation on that day by coble was only
8}d. We have noticed in some of our
Southern exchanges that planters are
talking alout exporting direct on their
own acoount, but wo fancy a second
thought will make the operation look less
promising.
In the New York market tho rise in
eotton np to Tuesday night had been 21
cents from the lowest point of the season
and tho rim during the week was five-
eighths of a cent—the market closing
weak.
Ginning Cotton.
A run among tho cotton boles at Mo
bile a few days ago convinced us that
many of our planters ore too careless
about the final management and ginning
of their crops. We saw several boles of
really good cotton that were lessoned in
value by stains and by small quantities
of a lower grade product that had been
allowed to creep into them.
One of tho most ready means of im
proving the looks and grade of cotton is
to sun it well until thoroughly dry be
fore ginning. A good sunning removes
most of the stains and adds very much
to the whiteness of tho staple. When
well dried tho gin will take out dirt bet
ter, will not nap or cut so badly, and in
addition will gin it much faster and with
much less labor. The saving in time and
in wear and tear of the mules, and tho
better cleaning of tho seed, will pay well
for the labor of sunning it, and tho bet
ter price obtained of » to 1c. per pound
will be the profit on the operation.
Tho assorting of cotton in the gin
house is an important business. No bale
should come to market with two quali
ties or grades of lint in it. In such a
case the whole bale sells for the price of
tho worst sample drawn.
Each picking should be to itself, and
the red or stained separated from the
blue, and the clean should be separated
from either. Only by care in putting up
i lockages can the fnU value I>o obtained
i or the product—Afoitls' Hoyioler. t
