r»T. llrawa n ad Ike Bank*. [tied furiously along; beauty spread herself, and We lay before our readers to^ay the proclamation shirt collars caved: fuss and feathers—cravats of Gov. Ilrown, publishing the names of the delin quent Banks in this State, and notifying thoTreas- u rt r that the bills of these banks will not be re. ccived at the Treasury in payment of any debt due the State. The action of the Governor in this case furnish es the people of the State with additional proof of l,is unflinching firmness in the discharge of his duty, and of his determination to execute the law at all hazards. He is discharging a plain duty in obedience to the express requirements of the statutes of this State. While he seeks to do the banks no injus tice, be is carrying out bis purposes as announced in bis Veto Message, and approved by the people of, ry v here, that the richest corporation in the State shall obey the law as promptly and implicit ly as the humblest citizen, or be made to feel its power. While we highly applaud the course of the Governor, we very much regret the illegal and obstinate course of the Banks, and the false position in which they have attempted to place their friends; who, in the last legislature, in good fai tli no doubt, passed the art legalizing suspension, and imposing certain restrictions on the banks in future on the subject of usury and exchange. They also made it the duty of tho bank officers by express provision of the statute, in their iiunual and semi annual returns, to swear that they have not violated tho provisions of the act in any particular. Gov. Brown believing the statute taken as a whole to he unwise, and that section of it which legalized the suspension to he unconsti tutional, vetoed it. The friends of the hanks in the Legislature passed it over the Veto. This caused great rejoicing among the hanks. Tiiey took the benefits of the act as long as they needed them. The Governor now calls upon them to comply with the requirements of the same act for the veiV period of time while they have had its benefits, and they utterly refuse. In a word they set the law at open defiance (he first moment that it comes in conflict with their in terest. Wo predict they will receive hut little sym pathy in the next legislature from those friends whose confidence they have so grossly abused.— They now stand in open defiance of a law passed by iheir friends who will doubtless condemn their course iu the most unqualified terms and will sus tain the Governor. We see no other course left the members of the legislature who passed the bill hut to sustain the Governor in its execution and condemn the hanks for its violation. These remarks apply with less force to those hanks which did not suspend, and we regret that the statute did not make such exception in their favor as to ena ble the Governor to draw a broad lino of distinc tion between them. Such however is not the case. Nor do our remarks apply to those banks which have complied with the law, and made their re turns as directed by the statute. The following banks have complied with the law and made their returns as required: The Central Rail Road and Banking Co. TheGa., Rail Road and Banking Co. The Bank of Savannah The Bank of Augusta. The Bank of Fulton. . The Bank of Athens. ' The Manufacturer’s Bank at Macon. The North Western Bank at Ringgold . There will bo no difficulty therefore about the collection of the taxes and other public dues, as the bills of these four first class banks of Augus ta and Savannah are in general circulation among the people, to say nothing of the other banks which have complied. If the delinquent banks would pardon a word of advice we would say, obey the law, do not take usury; and be prepared to respond to the next call made by the Governor. Should you deter mine otherwise and continue to violate the law, you will doubtless continue to suffer its penalties; which may be increased by future legislation if those now in force are found to be insufficient to enforce obedience. ('oitnurnrciiic'nt at Oglethorpe University. Oil Monday evening the 19th inst., the largest and most brilliant audience which has ever assem bled in the same place, on a similar occasion, filled everv in ok andcorner of the spacious and beauti ful chapel, to witness the exercises of a portion of the Sophomore Class, in Declamation. Out of a class num-bering twenty-three only twelve entered the arena. The following was the Programme: SOPHOMORE PRIZE DECLAMATION. EI DA QUI MERUIT. Order of Exercises. Prayer.—Music. R. W. Flournoy,—Union of Church and State. J. P. 1'ort,—Liberty and Union. Music. J. E. Fulton,—Eulogy on Daniel Webster. Thomas Hardeman,—Party Spirit. Musi*. ,1. Q. W. Kendrick—Virginia and Massachu- * C jf n. King—Henry Clay on the Expunging Resolution. Music. A. P. Miller—Reign of Terror. P. K. Norwood—L. M. Keitt, of S. C., on the Diplomatic and Consular Bill. Music. William Redd—76. J. T. Roberts—Speech of Robert Emmet. Music. W R. Slaughter—Character of Patriotic Tri umph. J. Q. Spencer—Mahomed the Second. Music—Benediction—Music. There was no difficulty in deciding upon which of the youthful gladiators the palm of excellence should ho bestowed; Mr. A. Porteus Miller of Charleston, S. C., ran far ahead of his competi tors and gallantly won the First Prize. His man ner, gesture, enunciation, voice, were all admira hie ; and if he does not some day subdue multi tudes by his Oratory, the fault will be his own- nature lias done lunch for him—individual effort must harmonize and apply the material. As one of the Judges on the occasion, we must say, that the contest for the second prize was spir ited and most difficult to decide. There were Flournoy, Kino, Hardeman, Roberts and Kendrick—all good speakers, and all deserving and crinoline—were the order of the Day. Thi chapel groaned under the affliction of this heavy respousihilty. Never have we seen a larger or more brilliant assemblage of modest maids and gallant gentlemen, gathered under the wings of our F air Mother. Out of a class of twenty-seven only ten appeared. The following was the Order ®f Exercises. Prayer—Music. C. B. Adams, (excused,)—Treachery.—Music. A. P. Calhoun—Fame.— Music. A. Crosby, (excused)—The Dissolution of the L nion.—Music. Jno. E. DuBose—Jerusalem.—Music. llico. Johu Hunter—Harmony ofTrnth—Music. A. n ayne F'lemming—Light.—Music. W. A. Little—The Almighty Doliar.—Music. D. M. McClure—Truth.—Music. H. S. Orme—National Airs.—Music. Caleb Toxey, (excused,)—College Life.—Music. H. J. Winn—Woman’s Rights.—Music. ^ D. S. Bethune—Valedictory to the Trustees and Faculty, (First Honor.)—Music. Jas. H. Nall—Valedictory to the Graduating Class, (First Honor.)—Music. Degrees Conferred—Music. Recess for half an hour. Address to the Sophomore Declaimers and De livery of Prizes by Hoir. E. A. Nisbeti Music. Address to the Thalian and Phi Delta Societies, by Hon. Hiram Warner. Benediction—Music. We are compelled to cut short our accoust of these exercises, owing to the large space occupied by other important matter. To he candid, we must confess that iu our opinion the orations of the graduating class were not equal, with a few ex ceptions, either in composition or delivery, to those of the Juniors’ the day before, “I he A1 .‘Highly Dollar” elicited repeated and loud applause from Young America in the Galleries, and showers of hoquets from young ladies near the stage. Our young friend Little was particularly severe on newspapers for puffing quack medicines—he must have been a sufferer from some nostrum—perhaps a vermifuge ! After the Valedictory and the con ferring of degrees, there was a recess of half an hour. This over, the wearied audience were re galed with a treat from Judge Nisbet in the shape of a short address to the Sophomore Prize De- claimers, on the subject of Oratory. The elo quence of the speakei was not like the mountain cataract or the thundering avalanche, hut like the smooth and placid Rhine. We hope to have the pleasure of reproducing this neat and tasteful address in our columns. After the Prizes were delivered to the success ful declaimers, the Orator of tho Day, Judge Warner, arose and addressed the audience. Al though the patience of the house had been sore ly tried by the great length of the preceding ex ercises ; and notwithstanding it was after J o’clock when he began, a large portion of the immense audience remained to hear him. The address abounded in wholesome and practical hints to young men for their future guidance in life. The address was indeed an able one; such as the pub lic might have confidently expected from the au thor ; and as it will, doubtless, appear before the public in a shape to be read and known of all, we refrain from further comment upon it. The assemblage on this day was unusaily large. Hundreds could not get within the.chapel, but re tired to some shady retreat near by to spend the hours as best they could. In closing this hastily prepared and imperfect sketch, we will only add a word ill behalf of the Milledgeville Brass Band. Composed of young men from our town we know them and their merits well; they deserve what they will receive, wherever they go, kindness anJ encouragement from the public. A IVlitinouK-r. A correspondent of the Constitutionalist who signs himself •* Impartial,” has lately written a uutnher of articles on the Bank question, which are now being copied into the Savannah Repub lican, and probably other Bank organs, that are about as impartial as the author of the articles referred to. The articles are written in better temper than many which we have seen, and in better temper than the author himself was able to command, if we do not mistake the style, when he wrote the articles signed ‘‘Richmond.” No one can, how ever, be deceived by these new productions of this bank champion. So far front being “impartial” the whole affair is intended as an ingenious assault upon the Governor, under pretence of fairness, and is very partial to the Banks. The thing is too plain to need comment. The people will not be deceived by it. Editorial Correspondence of the Uederal Villon. Providence, R. I., July 19, 1858. My last communication was from Newport, since then we have visited Rocky Point, Portsmouth Grove. Warren, Bristol, See. Ac. Rocky Poin ! and Portsmouth Grove are delightful watering places on Naragansett Bay. The former is abou : half way from Providence to Newport. Here, in warm weather, hundreds, and some times thous ands, of people resort to enjoy sea bathing and cool air; and amidst groves and grottoes, and craggy rocks, they feast on lobsters, clams, and fish of various names, served up to suit the taste of the visitors. We have seldom sent a more delightful place in which to spend a hot day than Rocky Point. Many families from Providence, and the surrounding country, spend several weeks of the summer at this place and its vicinity. Here, hoys and girls ‘just let loose from school” enjoy the live-long day, in boat riding, fishing, bathing and romping among the groves and rocks. Here, also Students, and Misses of maturer years, walk and ride, bathe and swing, and carry on flirtations. Every one here seems bent upon making most of their time, and enjoying themselves as much as possible,and we should think they succeeded to admiration. Warren and Bristol are small cities of four or five thousand inhabitants each. They are pleasantly situated on Naragansett Bay-, and have considerable commerce, and diversity of manufactures. They are also both engaged in the Whaling business. At Warren we went on hoard a large whaling ship, nearly ready to sail on a three years voyage to the North Pacific Ocean, in pursuit of whales. The ships engaged in the whaling business are built very strong and sub stantial, and their crew and all their rigging and stores are of the best material, consequently it is some special mark of distinction but all could | ver „ expensive fitting out a whaling ship. i .-i ti. . r' — ,i :.i„.i .8. ... . . not be accommodated. The Committee decided that Messrs. Flournoy of Ga , and Slaughter of Ala., should divide the honor of the second prize. This award we are pleased to say, gave entire satisfaction to the committee, and was doubt less right and proper. Tuesday—Junior Exhibition. At an early hour the chapel was filled with the beauty, fashion and intelligence of Milledgeville, Midway and vicinity, to witness the exercises set apart for this day. The following was the Pro gramme of the exhibiiion: ORDER OF EXERCISES. Prayer by the President.— Music. Dowse Brad wel 1—Marion —Music. J. D. Brown—Worth of Liberty —Music. Edw’d M. Green—Oliver Cromwell.—Music. W. A. Wilson—American Scholar.—Music. Geo. W. Ladson—“Vis consilii expers mole ruit sua.”—Music. J. G. Lam—Chistianity essential to National Prosperity.—Music. S. C. Lanier—The Press.—Music. T. F. Newell—Ambition.—Music. W. C. Dawson Seymour—‘No rose without a thorn.”—Music. Win. W. Spencer—Power of Association. — Music vW. P. Johnson—Fanaticism. Music—Benediction —Music. Most of the pieces were well written and well delivered; and, taken as a whole, the exercises] were very creditable to the class. Our young friend Lanier gave “The Press” some hard rubs; but when he gets a little older, he will find that great Reformations, such as he proposed, are not accomplished iu a day. or a year ; and that they do not often receive llieir first impulse from the virgin efforts of College boys. The speeches of Messrs Lane and Newell were highly credi table. The last speaker, W. P. Johnson, held tlie audience s[iell bound for ten or fifteen minutes, by the power of his eloquence, and the beauty and fertility of thought which shone and glittered iu every liue ol his address. fonunrnrement Day. Old Sol, whose rays had beeu getting more pointed and penetrative for several days, now gathered them all together, and poured them down npoti the earth on \\ ednesday last, as if he never expected to shine again. But Sol, nor dust, nor anything, could xeep hack the crowd that annual ly fills the chapel at Oglethorpe on Commence ment Day. The sun shone, the du*t crept lazily and heavily up—vehicles of every description rat- Bristol is near Mount Hope, tho ancient resi dence of the famous King Phillip, an Indian chief tain and warrior, that in the early settlement of New England, for many yeais waged war against the combined forces of the colonies of Connecti cut, Plymouth, and Massachusetts bay. He was wise in counci], brave in action, and foresaw the certain destruction of his race, if the whites were left to get a foot hold iu the country. If he had had a faithful historian to record all of his exploits Lrp would have been enrolled among the hid*** and patriots of his race. Since one return to Providence, we have visited Brown University. It is one of the oldest, and we believe, is general ly considered, one of the best Colleges in New England. In August 1855, Dr. Waylaad, who had been President of the College for more than twen ty eight years, on account of his age and infirmi ties, resigned his oflice of President and Professor of Moral and Intellectual Philosophy, and the corporation, after accepting his resignation, pr o- ceeded to elect the Rev, Bamas Sears , D. I)., Pres, ident of the University, and Professor of Moral and Intellectual Philosophy. Dr, Sears is now President, assisted by nine professors. The Col lege is liberally endowed, and has a well selected library of over thirty thousand volumes, with a permameut fund of twenty thousand dollars, the interest of which is appropriated for its yearly in crease. The present number of students is 205, nd the condition of the university is highly pros perous. The revival in religion is siill progressing, and deepens, and widens as it progresses: it is won derful. A considerable number of the young men of Providence who have lately been converted, visit the churches in the country around the city, several nights each week, and hold prayer meet ings with them. We have been present at some of these meetings,and were deeply impressed with the solemnity that seemed to pervade them. We have seen nothing of tho rant and confusion that sometimes attend revivals, but a deep feeling, an awful solemnity, is the prevailing characteristic of this Revival. We expect to go to Boston to-mor row, and our next communication will probably bo from that renowned seat of learning and fanati cism. _ B.

London m mey market.—The money market is unchanged. Consuls quoted at 95J. Liverpool naval stores.—Rosin and Spirits of Turpentine were reported steady. General Netcs. The steamship Agamemon, engaged in attempt ing to lay the Atlantic cable, had returned to Queenstown. It had been determined by the Atlantic Tele graph Company, that the fleet should start out again on the 17th of June iu another attempt to lay the submarine cable. It was reported that tin- Maliomedans had nias- saccredat Juddah about twenty Christians, inclu ding the English and French Consuls. Three British men-of-war have been ordered there. Rust in Cotton.—The rust or blight commenced iu several spots in my best cotton in June. The plants (hopped their leaves and about three-fourths of them died to the root. These plague spots have continued to enlarge until many acres are now ruined and if it continues my entire crop will be soon out off. I have seen like appearance in one cotton field in Barnwell, and have heard several persons complaining in Edgefield. It is thought to be the same species of blight which proved so- disasti uus to the oat crop, it is said to be upon the grass in the pastures, and is supposed to be the cause of the pestilence among our cattle. A CITIZEN. Edgefieid District, S. C., June 19, 1858. Augusta Constitutionalist. The first white man born in Kentucky is still living, and is residing in that State. Hit name is Enocli Boone, a nephew of the great pioner, Dan’l Boone. His farm is on the Ohio river, above the mouth of Salt river. He was born shortly after Col. Boone s second expedition to Kentucky, and is consequently greatly advanced in years, but is hale and hearty, and very cheerful, and is fond of relating the thrilling scenes which he witnessed during his early days of the ‘dark and bloody ground.’ He is said to resemble, in a striking de gree, his renowned uncle, both in form and features. We are pleased this week to announce, says the Chattanooga Gazette, that the Tunnel on the Cleve land and Chattanooga Branch Road has been “bored through,” and that the “underground” track will soon he ready to connect with the balance of the road. Up to the present time there have been landed in Cuba no less than 31,589 Cooiie laborers. Cholera among Hogs in Wilkinson and Laurens Counties. Editors Federal Union.—There has been the greatest destruction among hogs I ever heard of in my life, some farmers has lost all their hogs, some, all but a few. I heard of a farmer on Rocky Creek Laurens county who lost 80 head of hogs in 3 days. If the disease don’t cease it is thought it will hardly leave stock hogs. Also the cattle has some kind of a disease that is killing them them very fast. Yours respectfully, COUNTRY RESIDENCE AmdL 3Pl3H3ittsiltL®m Sal®.

W HEREAS, the Legislature of this Stab’, on the 24th day of December, 1832, passed an act entitled “An Act more effectually to secure tlie solvency of all the hanking institutions iu this State,” the preamble of which act is iu these words, “Whereas, the enormous amount of bank ing capital chartered by the laws of this State, and her circulating cuirencv being composed al most entirely of the bills of iter own banks; and whereas, the saffcty and best interest of our citi zeus require that the true condition and solreacy of each hank or incorporate company, exercising banking privileges, should be known la the com munity, so as to guard the great body of the people from receiving a depreciated or doubtful paper, and tor remedy whereof.” The first and second sec tions then direct how the returns of each incorporate bank in this State are to be made, and the penalty for a failure to make such returns is prescribed iu the third section, which is iu these words, “Should the president and directors ot any one or more of the aforesaid hanks, fail to comply with the spirit and true meaning of tiiis act. it shall he the duty of his Excellency tlie Governor, for the time being, to notify the Treasurer of this State, and tlie president and directors of the Cen tral Bank, of said delinquent bank or banks. whereupon it shall not be lawful to receive the bills o any such delinquent bank or banks, m paymew at any d bt due the State of Georgia, or the Central Bank, until the President and Directors of such delinquent bank or banks, shall have made such returns as are required by this act.” And the fourth section declares that, "It shall he the duty of his Excellency the Governor, fertile time being, to publish the name or names of any bank or banks, which may fail to comply with all the re quisitions of tiiis act, in all the newspapers printed in Milledgeville, as often as lie may think expe dient for tlie public good.” And whereas, the second section of an act as sented to the 28d day of December, 1843, entitled ‘An Act amendatory of the act providing for the pub lication of the Bank Reports,’ is in these words, “ l lie bills of any bank failing to publish its re turn as aforesaid, within thirty days after making the same, shall not be reeeiced in payment of Taxes, or at tlie Treasury of the Slate.’’ And whereas, the act approved 21st February, 1850, entitled “An Act to change, point out and regulate the manner in which the returns of the several banking institutions of tiiis State shall hereafter be made,” enacts as follows, to-w it: Section 1st. “Re it enacted, That after the pas sage of tiiis act, his Excellency the Governor of the State shall twice in each and every year re quire, by public advertisement for at least two weeks, in a gazette printed at the seat of Govern ment, each and every bank and hanking institution in t his State to make a ju t ami true return under the oaths or affirmation of its President and Cashier, of tlie state and condition of such bank or bank ing institution, with the names of its President and Directors, and a list of its stockholders, on the day of the regular weekly meeting of the l'rcsideutand Directors thereof, next preceding the date of such requisition by tlie Governor; and it shall be the duty of each and every bank or banking institution, within tliiity days after the date of such call by the Governor, and under the peaal'y nuw prescribed laj law for a failure to make returns, to make and transmit to the Governor such return so required in lieu and stead of tlie return heretofore required.” Section 2nd. “In the respective returns required by the preceding section, the good, had and doubt- J ful debts ot said hank or banking institution. j respectively, shall be set forth as now required by l.nv.’' Section 3d. “When any hank or banking insti tution shall make the return required by this act, tiie same shall bo published by such corporation within the time, under the penalties, and in the manner prescribed Gy existing laws, publishing th ■ list of stockholders once a year only.” And whereas, in October last, most of the hanks of this State, in violation of their contracts with 1 ’.io people and in violation of their charters, sus pended specie payment, and refused to comply with their solemn engagements to redeem their lulls in specie on demand or presentation, thereby subject ing themselves, under existing laws, to judicial proceedings to be institued by order of tlie Govern or. on due proof thereof, to the end that their char ters might be declared as forfeited and annulled- And whereas, the legislature of this State, for the purpose of relieving those suspended banks which had subjected themselves to the penalities of the act of 1840, from the heavy penalties they had incurred, and from the forfeiture of their char ters, and for the purpose of prohibiting thereafter the usurious practices of all or any of the banks of this State—as well the specie paying as the sus pended—and for the purpose of amending the law of bank returns so as to require of hank officers tiie guaranty of an oath that these practices are not indulged in, passed an act on the 22nd day of December, 1857, entitled “an Act to provide a- gainst the forfeiture of the several Bank Charters in tiiis State on account of non-specie payment for a given time, a ml for other purposes therein named,■“ the eighth, ninth, tenth and eleventh sections of which are covered by the tatter clause of its cap tion, being subject iu their binding force ti no lim itation as to time, and are in the words following, to-wit: “Sec. VIII. Br it further enacted, That no bank, nor bank agency, by itself (Us) officers or agents. slmll either directly or indirectly loan money on any note, bill, dratt or contract of any sort, verbal or written, at a greater rate of interest than at the rate of seven per cent, per annum, and only at that rate for a longer or a shorter time ; and all notes, bills, drafts and contracts of every sort wiiatever, on which a greater rate of interest is re served or exacted and received or bargained for, are hereby declared to be utterly void and of no effect, and irrecoverable in law.”. “Sec. IX. And be i further enacted, That no bank nor bank agency shall, by itself, its officers, or agents, discount or purchase notes, papers, or evidences of debt, made for a valuable considera tion, ora good consideration, between the parties thereto, at a greater discount than at th: rate of seven per centum per annum, and that all such notes, papers and evidences of debt, discounted or purchas 'd in violation of this Act, shall, from the time of such purchase, become utterly null and void and irrecoverable in law.” “Sec X. That no bank or bank agency, by it self. its officers, or agents, shall either directly or indirectly sell any kind of exchange, except sight checks, nor exact, demand, ask oi receive for ex change in or out of this State, of any citizen of ties State, a greater premium than one per centum, on the amount of exchange sold, when the bills of the bank from which the exchange is sought to ho obtained, are presented at its counter in pay ment of said exchange, and for the violation of this section of tiiis Act, the persou paying the pre mium, his agent or attorney may, and he is here by authorized to recover three times the amount of the excess by a summary proceeding, before a Justice of the Peace, the inferior or Superior Court, as tlie one or the other CourtTnay have ju- risdictiou, and on which judgment shall bo ren dered at the first term of the Court, nnless the principles of justice shall require a postponement for one term, and no longer; and in which case tlie officer or agent who received the premium sh ill appear, without any other process than the service of the writ, and give evidence in the case; and if be fail to appear, the affidavit or evidence of the plaintiff shall be received in proof of the amount demanded and the suit shall be against either the bank whose agent loaned the money, or against the agent, and iu either event, the proper ty of the bank shall be subject to the payment of the judgment: Provided, That nothing herein contained shall have any reference to foreign ex change, and provided further, tiie person applying for the exchange shall, if required, make oath that it is not to resell as exchange.” “Sec. XI. The affidavit of lank officers to th< ir annual and semi-annual reports shall tn all eases state that tho bank of which they are officers has not by itself, its officers, or agmts, in any particular, violated the provisions of this Act.” Which said last mentioned section of said act effff rafts another section upon tlie law of bank re turns, as it exist' d when this act was passed ; and as the said eleventh section n lates to the same sub ject matter—that of bank returns-'it is to be con strued with, and in reference to all previous legis lation then in force on that subject, by a well known rule of construction, that statutes in pari materia, are to be construed together as hut one law. Wherefore, a bank failing to comply with “the spirit and true meaning of said act,” incurs the penalties prescribed in case of a delinquent hank. And whereas, on the first day of June last, I is sued my proclamation which was published as di rected by the statute, requiring tlie several banks in this State to make their returns as required by Livy and to comply with the provisions of the said eleventh section of the said act of le57; and where as. more than thirty days have elapsed since said call was made, as required by law, upou said banks; and whereas.

And I doH hereby notify the Treasurer of this State of said | delinquent banks; and I do moreover proclaim) and make known that the hills of said delinquent banks will not be received at the Treasury ot this State in payment of any debt due the State of Georgia, or the Central Bank, until the President and Cashier of each of said delinquent banks re spectively. shall have complied with the law, and shall have made such return as the statutes require.

THE well known plantation, be longing to the estate of the late Col. Wm. Toney deceased will be sold by order of Court at Fort Gaines. Clay Co. Ga-, on First monday in November next. This Plantation lies on Chattahoochee River, five miles above Fort Gaines the western terminus of the S. YV. Rail Road, and on the road from the latter place to Eufaula, on which a daily stage passes; it has tine improvements to-wit—a new two story dwelling house, large and commodious; with seven rooms,all ceiled and painted with brick chimneys to six rooms, a new gin house and new cotton screw, and framed negro honses, all new and complete. The house lot and negro houses are well watered and so is every field on the plan tation; with a good garden and orchards of apples pears, peaches &c., attached. There is about 800 acres of corn and cotton laud in cultivation, all nearly dead level, whose productive quality can be judged from the fact well authenticated that 30 hands have actually cleaied $63,000 from 1850 to 1857, from the sales of six crops of com and cotton made on the place, and this too over and above all plantation expenses. This Plantation lies on the Georgia side of the Chattahoochee, opposite Col. Archibald McKays, and contains about 1200 acres of land more or less, and will be sold on the usual favorable cred its of land sales, all to be specially declared oa the day of sale. i8outh-westcrn Georgia is the cotton growingre- sion proper, and as these river plantations sell at 10 to $15 per acre, an opportunity will now be of fered to the public to buy a large open plantation in a high state of cultivation at a very moderate price, and on easv and accommodating terms. *K»G.
