We publish elsewhere the proceedings of s Dem
ocratic meeting in Fulton County, which was call
ed to ascertain the sentiments of the Democracy
of that county upon th • several propositions to fix
the time of holding a State Convention. It will
be seen that the meeting was, by a large majority,
in favor of the 10th of June, hut for thesake of
j harmony, and in a most magnanimous spirit, the
j majority tendered the minority a compromise upon
Uhc24th of June. Tins proposition was uuaui-
| uiously accepted.
i When the compromise proposition was first made
hv our friends of the Times Sr Sentinel, we were
I willing to accept it as a settlement of the vexed
I question, prodded the friends of the 6th of Julv
would harmonise upon it. J5ut objections to it
were at once raised by our friend of the Telegraph,
and we, therefore, adhered to our original prefer
ence. \\ e see that the Atlanta Examiner hereto-
lore one of the warmest supporters of the bill of
July, has adopted the compromise proposition,
and calls on its friends to acceept that as a set
tlement of the question, we, therefore, take the
earliest opportunity that presents, to express our
satisfaction with the compromise proposition, and
do urge upon ail those who have agreed with us in
the past, to come cut at once, and in the same
commendable spirit of our Fulton County friends,
give their suppoit to the Compromise proposition,
as a final settlement of the vexed question. We

Sixth E)i«!ricl.
At a meeting of the Democratic Party of Clark
< unty, on the 19th inst., the following delegates
■ ere appointed to represent that county in the
riuherBrttorial Convention: Wm. Hope Hull, W.
I. Mitchell, A. A. F. llill, A. P. Cobb, and Dr. J.
M. Lumpkin. The meeting expressed its prefer-
i 'ice for the 10th of June as the best time to hold
til.- Convention. It also expressed a preference
for Hon. Janies Jackson as the nominee to fill
Gov. Cobb's place.
Meetings have also been held in Habersham,
Madison, Union, Hart, Towns and Walton; all
but tlio last expressed a preference for Hon. Rob’t
McMillan for Congress. Walton was silent, but,
eoine in for a share of the benefits arising from its
construction. But what will be accomplished if
those interested do not give their money at once!
We hope to hear from Augusta, the Georgia Rail
Road, and the South Carolina R. R., a good ac
count. Let these parties put the bail in motion by
liberal subscriptions, and the Road will soon have
a local habitation as well as a name. We agree
with the Times A Sentinel that the citizens of
Columbus have a stake in this matter, and should
be among the active friends of the Road. It says ; j
•‘The construction of this road will open the Char-!
leston market to us in this section of the State, and j
destroy the comparative monopoly now enjoyed by |
the Central Railroad. As the Central and South-
Western Railroad Companies have resolved to i
strike at our trade in the South-Eastern counties of I
Alabama, by extending two branches of the latter ■
road to the Chattahoochee river within the circle !
of our markets; the people of Columbus are inter- j
estedin every new avenue of trade which will add |
to the strength of their position in a commercial J
point of view. This contemplated Road will very I
materially conduce to this result, and we presume j
our capitalists and business men will lend a help
ing hand toils construction.”

In Bad Taste.—Wo noticed with regret, that
some writer in the Southern Recorder last week,
spoke disparagingly of Messrs. Hull, Jenkins and
Nisbet, as men of talent. Whilst we think the
course of these gentlemen in the lata Presidential
election objectionable, we cannot see any justice
or propriety in an attempt to depreeaite them as
men of ability. We hope to see them unite with
the American party in the approaching State elee-
j tions, and give the weight of their names and in-

the chair, and S. B Hoyt requested to act as Secre

Tlir Savannah Crnr^inn nnd the Conven
tion.
We find the following article in the Georgian A
Journal cf last Thursday:
Gubernatorial Convention.—The Democracy of
Fulton county, have recently held a meeting, and
resolved to accept the compromise day (as propo
sed by the Columbus Times & Sentinel) the 24tli
of June, for the assembling of the Gubernatorial
Convention. As we have before stated, we shall
not accede to this proposition, until ail of those
for whose fair and equal rights we have been bat
tling shall accept it. The very fact that the ad
vocates of the 10th of June have so easily and
willingly desert 'd their position, shows conclusive
ly. that they had no very good reason for having
heretofore so pertinaciously contended for it—tliws
creating a division of sentiment in the party that
should not have < xisted.
Wc desire no better evidence of the correctness
of our late position iu favor of the 10th day of
June than the remarks above quoted. Sucii a
spirit we are well assured, will not be imitated by
the Democratic papers that favored the 8th of July;
if it should he, discord will “reign forever”—but
upon whose shoulders the blame will rest, it takes
no prophetic eve to see. We have accepted the
compromise proposition of the Times A Sentinel,
nnd recommended by both sides of the question
at Atlanta, not because, as the Georgian intimates-
that we had “no good reason” for our preference
fur the loth of Junp, but because we are NOT “per
tinaciously” contending for a “division of senti
ment”—that is the why and wherefore. We should
attach some importance to the Georgian’s article
did we believe its spirit or language would find
any considerable endorsement, at the hands of the
Democracy of the State.
Resolved, 1st. That in the opinion of the Dem
ocratic party of Fulton County, the lflth day of
June next is tho proper and most expedient day
for holding the next Gubernatorial Convention—
but as a number of our Fellow-democrats have ex
pressed a preference for the 8th of July, and we
desire to meet them in a spirit of compromise and
reconciliation—therefore.
Resolved, 2d. That we suggest to the Democra
cy throughout the State that they all uuite upon
middle grounJ,tind adopt the 24th of next June as
the day for holding said Convention. These reso
lutions were unanimously adopted.
On motion of Col Gartrell, a meeting of the dem
ocratic party of Fulton county was called for the
first Tuesday in June, to select Delegates to the
Gubernatorial Convention.
Whereupon the meeting adjourned.

What ought Savannah new to do ?
This is the enquiry now made by the press and
citizens of Savannah, in view of the estoppel of
the Main Trunk road, by the refusal of the Bruns
wick Rail Road Company to relinquish any of its
chartered rights and privileges. The Savannah
Republican to it replies—that Savannah ought to
extend the Savannah, Albany and Gulf railroad,
(seventy miles of which are nearly completed.) so
as to cross the Brunswick road, fifteen miles West
of the Great Satilla river. An extension of eigh
teen miles would accomplish this, which would not
cost over By this connection of the
Brunswick and Savannah, Albany and Gulf roads,
th; Republican argues that the interests of Savan
nah, of Brunswick, and of their respective roads,
would be greatly promoted, and Savannah would
have a long and safe breathing spell, iu which to
mature her poiicy in reference to the farther ex
tension of her road West or South-West.
The Morning Netcs, on the other hand, upon the
question of the policy of Savannah in the present
emergency, says:
In our opinion, her course of policy should be
that indicated a short time since by the Board of
puny—namely, to extend their road thirty miles as
nearly as practicable on the Main Trunk line. This
line, we understand, has been already surveyed.
Let it be forthwith constructed. Nothing but
prompt and energetic action to this effect is suita
ble to the present occasion. Nothing is so well
calculated to inspire confidence among our South
western friends in the sincerity of Savannah—
nothing, wc think, bettor calculated to carry the
Main Trunk into practical operation.
The Bupdrll Drama.
The struggle for the dead man’s estate in the j
above-named dreadful drama, is still hotly going j
on between the fearful widow and the eager rela
tives of the deceased; and the prosp'eetat the present
is, that the former hold player will succeed. A
sketch of the recent evidence before the Surrogate,
will be found under the head of our local intelli
gence, audit will be seen that tbe new testim ony,
made of the field at a small cost; the broomsage. i ; n tko way of interest, is almost np to the mark which
persimmon and sassafras bushes excluded from jt held during the sensation month. The Misses
growing, and a more permanent improvement j Cunningham, as was to be expected, fully sustain
made in the soil in five years than can be made the assumption of the mother, and Miss Helen,
by any other system of double the cost. ! though not able to render testimony as direct as the
Question. What objection can there he to the j sister who was witness oft he nuptials, makes Iier-
above system? se lf ofalmost equal value to the case, by an idenlifica-
growth that do improve the soil, the other three
actually poison and destroy the value of the land.
Q. Why then do not farmers sow down broad
cast, and in drills, whole fields of land that they
design to rest, in the Blackberry seed with the oats
thev sow, and thus exclude the broomsage, the
persimmon and sassafras.
A. Because they do not think, or care about
the improvement of the land, or believe that there
is any other way of making money except by rais
ing cotton.
Conclusion.—One bushel of blackberry seed
mixed with twenty bushels of oats, would sow
down twenty acres of land broadcast, or forty
acres in drills four feet apart, the oats saved would
pay for the labor of doing this work. In two
years more, there could be raised from the black
berry, a better wine and a surer crop than can be
raised from the grape, and a perpetual hog pasture

killing frost this morning. The cotton which has
come up since the frost of last week is doubtless
ruined by the frost this miming. The cold bad
wet weather for th ■ last eight days, it is believed,
will prevent a good stand from being obtained
from the cotton already planted and not come up.
Replanting is now thought to be the chance for a
crop.
The main consolation is, that the present hold
ers of cotton will get some benefit from these bad
signs. They are also favored by an another plain
fact, to-wit; That the receipts of last year’s crop
are about closed. For instauce, the receipts at
New Orleans on Friday last were less than one
thousand, and on Saturday less than five hun
dred. The decrease in the receipts at all tin*
ports up to last Saturday, as per New Orleans
Price Current of that day, is over 352,000 bales.
By next Saturday it is believed the decrease will
b* about 39-1,000 a 400.090. And after this week,
the receipts at all the poris will be astonishingly
small.—Ala. Mail.
