Disturbing Rki.igious 'Worship.— The Enquirer says “Squire Jenkins, who lives some miles above Colum bus, has a very fine melon “patch” on a road leading to a negro church near by, and somehow the melons have a habit of disappearing in that direc tion. Last Sunday night, while Un church was in full blast, the “Squire’’ was lounging about the patch and ac cidentally was accompanied by a shot gun. A colored brother suddenly ap peared and knelt down beside one of the finest melons in tho patch, and the shot gun accidentally went off. There was a sputtering, yelling and kicking. Darkey became quiet after awhile, when he told his story, that religion had greatly affected him; that as he was passing that field the Lord had called on him to pray in private, and he climbed that fence so as to be bv himself. He was praying and had no thought of melon. He accounted for the fact that it was pulled from the vine bv the sudden jerk up the shot gave him. H“ was allowed to go, but lie can't sit down in a chair yet,” < Ol NTItY cohkesi’ondenct:. Peak Rkpobtkh. It is as true as holy writ “that where a mail’s treas ure is there will his heart be also,” and as the most of our earthly troas i urn is in the culture of the soil, hence :in extreme drought or two much | rain we become close observers of the : ''signs of the times,” or the settled or unsettled slate of the weather. For the last two weeks the weather has been cloudy, threatening rain, and yet in many places a sufficiency has not fallen for cane and potatoes the corn and cotton crop having done its i do. Taken all ill nil, so far, the present has proved to lie a remarkable year; remarkable for tho great floods in some countries, and tho great drought in others cycloljes, wind and hail storms have been frequent, and many things have happened to , lower the expectation of the planter, and w hat wo can glean from the news \ abroad, business seems to bo out of joint generally. AYhilc on this subject it may not be ! out of place to remark, that amid all ! the variety and diversity of opinion, i now prevailing in this country, the ! main ground of difficulty seems to be entirely overlooked, and that ground of difficulty is the lack of confidence of man in man, and that lack of con fidence lias resulted from a lack of I moral honesty. Men do not adhere to those rigid principles and practi : cos of common honesty, necessary to j promote the commercial welfare of any and every community. There arc l two many tricks, dodges, deceitful ! and deceiving practices indulged. | Men do not always speak tho truth in candor in dealing with each other, ! and in the general haste to he rich, j honor, honesty truth and candor have been sacrificed until no one ( knows whom to trust. This ties up i capital, it burdens labor, prevents im f provemeuts, and of course makes ! “times hard.” Nations and people, i like individuals, must be truthful and honest if they would he really pros perous. No other course will do, try it who may. The last twelve or fif teen years of our country’s history has witnessed an amount of frauds, 1 peculations, defalcations, and down right stealing by government officials, ! altogether unprecedented in our bis j they, and scarcelvjequalled injthe histo ry of any other civilized country, j Dishonesty or iucoinpotency have al most become the rule, rather than the exception among public officials. The facts are undeniable. And very few, if any, are surprised, because confi dence in men is gone. Those who re member the defalcation of one Sam Sumrtwood some forty years ago, and the storm of indignation that raged all over the country because ot it, ! arc well prepared to appreciate the | difference in public feeling then and j now. The indifference or compara tive indifference of public feeling in j regard to the management of public affairs is one of the very worst signs lof the times. Men have ceased to quote and ceased to remember the maxim of George Washington once so familliar to all—“ Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty.” Both in church and State and tlie mass of the people should seek to understand and ; labor to protect and defend the rights ! conceded to them. S. SOME POTATOES. A party of Atlanta gentlemen own a potato farm of three hundred acres near West Point, Ga., from which they j expect to realize 40,000 bushels, AVe j quote tho following from the Herald: 1 Now the question naturally arises, what are they going lo do with so many potatoes? They can find no market near enough at hand to sell : them in their natural state. Hence arises the supposition that they may be raising them to feed to stock. But ! even this is not the case. | To raise a crop of forty thousand i bushels of potatoes, on three hundred J acres of land, costs comparatively but J a mere trifie, say, about eight or ten ! cents per bushel. Potatoes, at any time in the year, will command at least fifty cents per bushel. From this it | will be seen that it clear profit of from I thirty to forty cents per bushel can lie made on the potato alone in its raw state. But when further consid -1 oration of the question is had it ap j pears that they can make over four | hundred per cent profit above this amount! The mere statement makes |it appearant, when 't is known that ; they have erected a large distillery on I the farm and propose to distill every | bushel of the potatoes they can make, lin addition to all they can purchase. l ltis a paying investment. The whis key distilled from potatoes is as good as the best, and will command two dollars per gallon, perhaps a little less. In addition to the profit to be made l on the potato in gro wing it, there is : another enormous profit to be made 1 in the business, and of which the gen | tlcmen in question propose to avail I themselves. That is this: They have 'purchased a largo number of stock hogs, which they will turn loose in a I large pen contiguous to the distillery, j and will feed them on slops and refuse from the still, and thus fatten them, i By this means of economy nothing ■ will be wasted, and even the refuse j will be turned to advantage. Georgia Crops. (From tho Atlanta Constitution.) T.n: August rep >rt of the st ite do burtment of agriculture gives the fol lowing Slate average" : corn, 86; cot ton, 81, sugar cane, 87; sorghum, 07; sweet potatoes, 80; field pons, 02; ground pens, 97;rice, 88; poaches, 87; grapes, DO, and corn forage, 80. To give the averages of corn and cotton more correctly commissioner Janes has separated tho returns of upper Georgia from those of the rest of the state, with the following result: North Georgia. --Corn, 102, cotton 90. Middle and South Georgia Corn 77; cotton 70. This report includes tho first half of the present month, and thus covers the drouth period. The effects of the dry and boated term arc plainly told in tho averages of the territory south of Atlanta. As this is the prin cipal cotton growing section of the state, it must lie admitted that the July drougtß did reduce the cotton crops about one-quarter. Upper Georgia has been wonderfully favored this season and the figures of the de partment corroborate previous state ments. In Fulton county, for exam ple, all the crops are rated 100 in the commissioner's report. The latter part of tho report pre ' sents many interesting facts. The commissi >ner concisely states the sub stance of numerous replies received from almost every county, as follows : 1. Only 20 per cent, of the farmers ! pay cash for what they buy. 2. Those who buy on a credit pay an average of 41 per cent, per annum interest on the cash prices. it. The farmers of Georgia pay, in : interest on supplies—nearly all of which can ho raised on their farm the sum of $1,250,000, which is more than half of the bonded debt of Geor gia, and is 14 pel' cent, of the value of the entire cotton crop of the state. 4. 80 per cent, of those who raise their supplies make a profit, while 75 per cent, of those who buy, lose. To remedy this disastrous state' of affairs the farmers, says Dr. Janes, must cease to buy supplies that can he raised on their farms. They must cease to buy fertilizers, except to supplement liome manures, carefully husbanded under shelter. They must reduce their planting down to a cash basis. They must demand such a tax upon dogs and such protection from their ravages as will enable them to raise wool and mutton, and thus ultilize, almost without labor, their at present waste or useless lands. AVe give tho concluding words of the excellent report: The price at which the growing crop of cotton will sell, will not pay the cost of production to those who have purchased their supplies. Farmers are, therefore, urged to commence at once to provide against, the leaks which arc sapping their financial 1 fe blood, by sowing largely of grain, and especially of the rust-proof oat, early in the fail; by carefully husbanding all tho manures on the farm, under shel ter, for use iu composting fur the next season's crops, and bv taking proper steps towards increasing their facili ties for rasing stock, and especially sheep. Under the present system,six ; aid a half millions of dollars, which should go to swell the annual profits ■ of Georgia farmers, find their way into the pockets of others, mostly i beyond the limits of our state, in con sequenco of the suicidal policy at present pursued, of buying what should be raised at home. AVill not our farmers make their farms self-sus taining—raise their supplies and pock et these profits? Discard the old habit of boasting the number of acees planted, the number of plows run, or the number of hales of cotton made, and look well to the number of dollars of clear profit. The Would-be Massoniello of Geor gia. (Hartford Commit.] “Prince” Rivers, who is named as being the head and front of tho threat ! ened insurrection in Georgia and South Carolina, was before the war a slave, owned by Mr. H. M. Stuarts lof Banford, South Carolina. Ho was ! Mr. Stuart’s coachman, and was said to be the finest looking negro at the South. In 1802, Gen. Saxton sent him north in charge of a clergyman, who exhibited him in public meetings !as a fair specimen of the plantation negroes. After getting all the money i they could, they returned to the ' south. Rivers purchased a lot of the | abandoned property of tho govern i raent, and went in as a planter. Not ! succeeding in this, he went into one of the colored regiments. After the war he turned up in ouo of the up country parishes, where he was elected to the Assembly. He there became one of the ring of scalawags and car pet-baggers, consisting of General Scott, of Ohio, Whitteniore, of Mas sachusetts, Dennis, of Connecticut, Moses, Snail, DeLarge, Bowen, Whip ple, and others of that sort. The millitia was organized, and from a subordinate official position Rivers lias risen to the rank of major general. He is a man of unbounded ambition and much influence and it is though that it will bo found that this spirit of insurrection pervades other States. The idea among the negroes that the land is theirs, and that |tboir fathers earned it by their labor, has been preached to them for years, until they have become imbued with that feel ing to such an extent that a war of races would not. he tho most surpris ing occurrence of the dav. —* It is stated that Lieutenant Gen eral Pemberton, late of the Southern army, is now in tho employ of the !

Perkins: ‘ If you j get the best of whiskey, Eli, whiskey ' will get the heat of you.” "GUSH.” A Sensible Protest From a North (ieor glu Lady, ti‘l Uorx Con dilution ; —AYe are often told that “times cliango and men change with them,” but sudden changes are apt to shock us, if our bodies and minds arc involved in-the change. I am not indiferent to tho desire for reconcilliation and peace that seems to bo springing up between the lately opposing sections of these United States. lam glad to see a better state of feeling iu the north and south, hut I am also sensible that some of our folks are rushing over to the other sido in rather unseemly haste—pushing, as it were, the olive branch into the hands of our late foes. If wo understand ourselves and our particular situation, it will, at least, become us, to allow some decided ad vances to bo made from the other sido. There is a question of self re spect iuvalved, as well as one of con ciliation. Two men from Georgia made speeches in Poughkeepsie, N. Y., a few days ago. They were allowed to bo representative men from qur sec tion of the state. They are reported to have asserted, each and distinctly, “that if the north and south had known each other before tiie war, as well as they do now, the war would never occurred.” If those gentlemen will analyze this assertion in their calmer momeuts, they well might perceive the gush that was so distaste ful to some who read the speech. It made me long for a little of Gen. Toombs blunt honesty, and unfailing devotion to the south. I wanted a relief from that overwhelming does of conciliation. I trust history will allow ns a bel ter season for our four years strife. Ignorance was not the cause of the war. The south was certainly ac quainted with the other section. If these gentlemen had been intro duced to Gen. Sherman, Stoueman A Cos. in the same way that some of us were, they woujd not need abetter acquaintance at present, and if we have understood the “tender mercies” of our stronghauded foes during the long ten years, just past and gone, we are not suffering for a more extended intimacy with a large number of them just now. I do protest against such wholesale committal, such extravagant' gush. The war left us little but ouri self-res pect; 1 beg our representat ve men to hold it dearer than this ; wc cannot afford to barter so cheaply. Perhaps we are not so thoroughly reconstructed as some of them appear to he, but our feeling of shame on reading the Poughkeepsie efforts would have been partly reteived, if we had heard, that a simple soul had said amen 1 AVe can evince a high sense of any welcome granted to our sotliern men without epnm.it ting them and us to such effusive sentiments. Some of our orators need toning down,. Give ns less of such extraordiary, extrava gant, fulsome conciliation. Soithbox. Jsisurreetitm in Mississippi. It would appear that the Radical shakers of the “bloody shirt” have been at work elsewhere than iu Geor gia to produce conflicts between the two races in the South, and thus fur nish “circumstances” for the Grant and Morton wing of the party. AA r e have already referred to the riotous proceed ings of negroes in East Florida. Now we have an account of a conflict in Mississippi, in which seveal negroes were killed, as Ames would say, "for the benefit of the Republican party.” The following letters, giving short re ports of the last mentioned affair, are from the Meridian Mercury of the 25th instant: i,etteb FEoii Judge foots..
