The la- mt reports say that the whole State is now jjaty thoroughly disorganised—the negroes pitting their work and leaving crops to take ;irt af themselves. If there has not been aoaghoi this Ethiopian savagery to satisfy the Tttgetnce of the radicals, should they not call i hit in respect to the good opinion of the torkl—in view of the enormous pecuniary losses itich must result even to themselves in keeping -p this negro carnival and Jumbo Jim frolic in it old Palmetto State. the up-country—Edgefield District, for Black Tersna Yellow. A Baltimore telegram informs us that the u»a« in that city have laid down their saw- taebuid razors—held a great Labor Oonven- oog and demanded, 1. That the objections of the whites against forking with negroes must be oteroome. 2. That Congress shall drive Chinese labor out of the country. Considering that Congress has made the (lacks the great absorbing centre of all legisla tion, we are amazed at the moderation of Sym bol demands. He might have required Con gress to put the whites under the negro every where, as they have done it in some places; and he might have demanded that Congress should kill the Chinamen instead of “driving them oat of the country.” If these demands hid been made they would have put Congress and the Government in an awkward dilemma, uri we ought to be thankful to the niggers that it was not done. The Chinamen will take the him and not wait for the kick which will lift them bodily over the Pacific into the Celestial Enpire. The “white men” of America will iho notice and put themselves, at once, into a wuree of training calculated to overcome their Ejections to intimate association with the ne gro. They must blunt their five senses in some way— confuse their eye sight and deaden the sense of smell so as to be in accord with the ad- ainistmtion and the negroes on this vital point of policy. The National Negro Convention, to meet next December, will explain these matters more dearly. Two Naval Secsetames at Sea ax® "What Came or it.—The "World reports that the Naval Secretaries, Bone and Robeson, lately went to 6ea from Long Branch in the little steamer Pi lot Boy. The result of this heavy combination of nautical science, skill and experience, was lhat they run the steamer npon a sand-bar and it became necessary to do a little wading to ex amine the situation of the craft. The World proceeds: "While Admiral Robeson was, with pantaloons rolled up, wading about the stem of the steam er, the tide being ont, be discovered the rudder a out an inch or two above the water.

It is now a settled proposition that the nse of commercial fertilizera in this part of Georgia, is destined to increase largely. Some farmers and others there were, last summer, who be came alarmed at the magnitude of the sums ex pended and indebtedness incurred for these ar tificial manures, and predicted that it would all end in disappointment and disgust, and the ac quisition of a little practical wisdom at a high price. So far, however, although we have heard of some disappointment in the quality of a few of the fertilizers brought into Georgia, yet the mass of the regrets have been that any por tion of the cotton crop was planted without fer tilizers. The people have had tangible evidence that it is a miserable economy to cultivate with out manures, and very few intelligent men will do it again. The result, therefore, will be that two or three dollars will be expended for these fertilizers next winter and spring to eveiy sin gle dollar's outlay of asimular character npon the growing crop. Consider, then, the character and extent of this gigantic business which is springing np among ns—the manufacture and supply of com mercial fertilizers to the people, which must now amount to several millions yearly. How will you shape and regulate it? "Will you turn over the legitimate profits which belong to snch a mighty business to strangers and persons for eign to Georgia ? "Will yon go on buying from year to year on blind faith—with no personal knowledge of what you are getting—with no se curity that the standard of value is achieved or maintained—with no pecuniary interest in the manufacture—with no control over the mills? • Surely this is not the part of reason or com mon sense. "We wish to submit a proposition to planters which, if they will consider with can dor, will enlist their earnest efforts to the se curing of a controlling influence in the manu facture of their own fertilizers and a large share in the legitimate profits of the operation. It is well-known that the Central Railroad Company, is abont transferring their freight de pot and shops to this side of the river,and in view of this change of site, they are willing to sell their valuable buildings in East Macon,with the whole system of side-tracks and switches, for the simple value of so much building material. Their buildings are in allj respects admirably adapted to the manufacture of fertilizers on a very extensive scale and to their transhipment all over the State. The Central railroad also proposes to take stock in the company and to aid it to the ex tent of its power in the prompt and cheap trans portation of the crude materials and manufac tured products. Accordingly, a company has been formed, and it is proposed to put at the head of it Gen. "William S. Holt—a man of well-known finan cial and executive ability, and a planter, as well as President of the Southwestern Railroad. It is proposed, also, to make that well-known and favorite agriculturist, chemist and planter, Dr. E. M. Pendleton, of Sparta, Inspector of the works. A considerable amount of stock in this enter prise has already been taken by many of the leading men in Macon, bnt it is earnestly de sired that the majority of the stock should be in the hands of planters. If they will take hold of this business, it will then rest with them to fix the exact standard and price of the fertil izers they will manufacture, and assure them selves beyond all doubt just what they are using. Under this arrangement, they can take entire control of the business, as well as reap the most satisfactory profits from the stock. Let them think over this proposition. The Sunday School Work is JIacos.—Am suita ble to the day, we thought it well to gather up, and present to our readers what the churches of our city are doing to implant religious truth in the at the young in the city of Mioon. Our statistics may not be exactly correct, bnt they are sufficiently so to give a fair idea of the faithfulness, or unfaith fulness, of our churches, in a most important de partment of Christian labor. It is very well for the World,and for Christians themselves, to know what they are doing in the great work imposed upon them by the Head of the Church, viz: the evangel ization of the world. The denominations in onr city are the Methodists, Baptists, Presbyterians, Episcopalians and Catho lics, in the order' in which they occur to onr mind. The Methodists have: ■* ' 1.

We worn our Eufaula friends and all other contestants for the honor of the champion cot ton acre, to look ont for their laurels. Set us down for a noodle if they have not got to work. We inspected yesterday a small inclosnre of cot ton npon a little elevated plateau just above the river bottom. It was part of one of those old wom-ont red clay fields, and the rest of the field presented that too familiar spectacle of broomsedge,stunt ed pine, and red gully which makes a good far mer impatient of the generation, and wonder whether people ever will do better. In short, as a start for a brag acre every one of our read ers would have pronounced it as poor and un promising as any they ever saw. Now how would you have attacked that galled and exhausted old clay bed? It was done with a heavy Brinley plough drawn by four mules, and followed in the furrow with a heavy subsoil plough mellowing the ground to the depth, say of nearly two feet. It was then fertilized with Superphosphate, as we shall at some future time state—seeded in rows six fe6t apart—thinned to the distance of three feat in the row ; bnt as the stand was not altogether so good as it might be, some replanting was done, and even now there are a few vacant spots. It was planted too late—about the middle of May—and it has been cultivated thoroughly—not shallowly—but with a good subsoil lifter all the time—penetra ting the soil to the depth of twenty inches and keepingit as soft as an old-fashioned feather-bed. The result is that this acre of cotton has been moving at a 2.40 pace from the start. It has never shed a form, blossom, or boll. It has never suffered from drought or wet. It is as rank as a canebrake. It is now between four and five feet high on an average—but such branching and fruitage must be seen to be be lieved. The rows now meet—the forms, blooms and bolls we shall not pretend to nnmber. Some who had the patience to count said there were a little short of 300 to the stalk, bnt though these cotton stalks.are an inch to an inch and a quarter diameter in the. butt, the weight of bolls is splitting down some of the lower limbs already. That acre, in a short time, will show a growth of abont seven feet high looking more like a great pile of white cctton than any thing else, and what its product will be we shall not pre tend to say. It belongs to Mr. S. I. Gustin, and may be found not far from his mill. It is worth looking at to see what can be done with onr old bald red hills in Georgia. How much there is to be learned on this interesting sub ject. Hard Times In the West. From lie Cincinnati Enquirer.] A correspondent of the Newark (N. J.) Jour nal, writing from St. Louis, sayB, with a degree of truth and force that will be recognized in Cincinnati, and throughout the West: “The sound of distress is gradually swelling over onr land. In this city the streets are filled with men out of employment, and we learn that in Chicago there are ten thousand people in the same fix. In fact, similar accounts come from all onr large cities. "Why is it? Is there not something radically rotten in the manage ment of onr national affairs? The distress is not with the rag banks, nor with the untaxed bondholders; they have ample means to take advantages of the sacrifices labor is compelled to make to sustain themselves without work. The difficulty seems to be that taxation is greater than the legitimate profits of labor, and the fi nances of tbe country are manipulated by mere politicians, intent 6olely on personal or partizan gain. But what shall be the remedy? It lays in a change of onr system of finance and taxa tion. But this can only be effected by the peo- ple; therefore, the all-important question is, can tne people submit patiently to the present regime until such time as they may be enabled to change it? If not, the fear iB that pnblic necessity will produce terrible riots, and an un precedented increase of crime. When will our rulers learn wisdom, and act for the good of our people, instead of for the benefit of capital V’ paid for. The Presbyterians have: 1. The Maeon Presbyterian Church, on Mul berry street—Rev. D. Wills, D. D., Pastor—three hundred and twenty members. In the Sunday School there are seventy-five scholars and thirteen teachers—Mr. J. J. Gresham Superintendent. Mission Sunday School, Windsor Hill—seventy- five scholars and eight teachers—Dr. Burgess, Su perintendent. Tbe Episcopalians have: 1. Christ Church, on Walnut street Number of communicants about two hundred and thirty Rev. Benjamin Johnson, Rector. Mr. Johnson has but lately settled in our city, and is a gentlemen of cul ture, fine Christian character, and great zeal and ability. The Sunday School has sixty scholars and ten teachera—G. C. Conner Superintendent 2. St. PauTs Church, Tatnall Square, Rev. H. K. Rees, Rector—Rev. William Leacock, Assistant Rector. Number of communicants about seventy- five ; Sunday School scholars sixty; teachers ten. T. A. Burke Superintendent. 3. S t. Barnabas Chapel, southwestern portion of the city—Rev. H. K. Rees, Rector; Mrs. L C. Plant Superintendent of the Sunday School—eighty scholars and ten teachers. This chapel is a neat building, with an organ and regular choir, and has been in existence for almost 9 years—a monument of woman’s zeal and energy. The Right Reverend John W. Beckwith, Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Georgia, resides in our city, and it is hut right to say that the Episcopal ecclesiastical operations in this city are just now undergoing change, and a thorough re-organization. The Catholics have: St. Joseph Catholic Churc7t, on 4th street, un der the charge of Father Bazin. Number of mem bers five hundred; Sunday School scholars one hundred—teachers ten. In addition to all the above, we may mention that a Sunday School is maintained in the Yineville Chapel, under tbe superintendence of R. U. Harde man, Esq., containing abont forty scholars and ten teachers. In the Blind Academy there is a regular Sunday School, under the care of Professor Williams, the Principal, where thirty-three blind persons are taught the fundamental truths of the Gospel. In the Wesleyan Female College all tho classes are instructed in the Bible regularly, on Monday of each week, as a part of the invariable exercises of the Institution. Summary.—We thus have: four Methodist Sun day Schools—530 eeholars and 78 teachers; three Baptist Sunday Schools—S60 scholars and 43 teach ers; two Presbyterian Sunday Schools—150 schol ars and 21 teachers; threeEpiscopal Sunday Schools —200 scholars and 30 teachers: one Catholic Sun day School—100 scholars and 10 teachers; one Yineville Sunday School—10 scholars and 10 teach ers ; one Blind Academy Sunday School—33 schol ars and 4 teachers. Total—15 Sunday Schools, 1413 scholars, and 196 teachers. When we regard the matter attentively, we per ceive enough to make us congratulate the churches —yet our impression is that proper and systematic efforts would double the number of scholars and teachers in this city. There is one idea to which we call the earnest attention of Christians, and that is the establisment of Bible Schools, with proper at tendant exercises, in the most neglected portions of the city—where grown people may to instructed, reclaimed and led into the Church. There are classes of grown people in society who never attend divine service, and to whom it is difficult to commu nicate the truths of the Bible. If the most zealous and energetic Christians of your dty would establish Bible Schools, many unfortunate persons would willingly receive instruction, which at present they do not, and, it may be, cannot obtain. Perhaps toe record should not be closed, without adverting to toe Sunday Schools for toe freedmen in toe city. There are in Macon five Sunday Schools for the freedmen: Norwich Chapel Sunday School—whole nnmber of scholars 358—average attendance 223. African Methodist Episcopal Sunday School— whole number 289—average attendance 179. First Baptist Snnday School—whole number 185 —average attendance 135. Second Baptist Sunday School—whole number 100 —average attendance 80. Presbyterian Sunday School—whole number 145— average attendance 93. The Superintendents, with toe exception of toe Chapel School Superintendent, are colored. The difficulty in these schools is the want of competent teachers. Here, in our dty, then, we have over 1400 white Sunday School scholars, and 1190 colored, in a pop ulation of 16,000. Are toe people of God in Macon satisfied with that showing ? bilious properties, as were never heretofore united in any medicine. It has been discovered, at last, that sick people are not like toe fabled Titans, who found prostra tion so refreshing that, when knocked down, they rose from toe earth twico as vigorous as before. When an invalid is prostrated by powerful depleting drags, he is apt to stay prostrated; and toe debili tated being aware of toe fact, prefer toe building np to toe knocking down system of treatment.

It for tifies toe body against disease, invigorates and re vitalizes toe torpid stomach and liver, and effects a most salutaiy change in toe entire system, when in a morbid condition. In summer, when toe enfeebling temperature renders the human organization particularly sus ceptible to unwholesome atmospheric influences, toe Bitters should be taken as a protection against epidemic disease.

Whereas, Satisfactory proof has been made to me that the affair* of the said Bank have been fairly and legally administered and generally with the same care and diligence that agents, receiving a com mission for their services are required and bound by law to observe, and that the insolvency of the said Bank and its inability to redeem its notes have been brought abont by no agency of toe said Robt.
