MACON FRIDAY, AUGUST 6, i860.
Machine' Department
State Fair.—E. Crockett, Esq., hasbeen ap
pointed Superintendent of the Department of
Agricultural Implements and Machinery, and
will receive, erect, put in motion and exhibit all
machinery sent to him freight paid and with in
structions. The Society will have a forty horse
power engine to drive the machinery.
Rous ton County.
A Houston oounty planter thinks the crop of
that county a fortnight behind where it was last
year at a corresponding period.
The weed is generally small, but well fruited
and will make a fair crop if no misfortune be
falls it At present, it shows frequent and
numerous signs of rust, which may prove very
fatal to the product Generally speaking, the
county has suffered severely from drought, al
though there are localities which have had time
ly throughout the season. It is supposed
that an adequate supply of com will be made
for the county, but unless the weather clears off
speedily the fodder will be lost to a great extent
Some little cotton was open, and we heard a
planter Bay. that picking, in a small way, would
commence on some plantations this week.
From Macon County.
A gentleman from Montezuma states that the
cotton in some sections of that county have had
no rain for four weeks, and the late rains,
wherever that was the case, have produced de
structive rust. Crops which were expected to
produce a bale to the acre, will not yield three
hundred pounds. He thinks com enough was
produoed in. Macon to supply the county, but
there will not be a half crop of cotton made in
that region.
Macon Confederate Laboratory.—A Wash
ington special to the New York Daily Tribune of
the 20th inst, says Dr. Culver, of Georgia, left
Washington to-night with authority to take pos
session of the Confederate laboratory at Macon
for the use of the State Agricultural Fair. Af
ter the 1st of January it is probable the build
ing will be converted into a hospital for aged and
infirm negroes.
If that is the probability, the society and peo
ple of Macon should at leasteconomise their ex
penditures on the building as much as possible.
A hospital for aged and infirm, that is to say
say, lazy negroes, will be a delightful appendage
. to Tineville. It would be simply a den of
thieves.
Speculation in Bogus Money.—The Southern
country appears to be pretty well flooded with
the circulars of Noyes <fc Co., 65 Wall street,
New York, offering packages of counterfeit
United States Treasury notes at a heavy dis
count for cash. One of these circulars has been
sent us from Hickory Grove, addressed to a sub
scriber in that rural region. This charming
business is a legitimate successor of the coun
terfeit operations upon the Confederate Treasu
ry Notes, which were pursned with much suc
cess during the war.
A Sad Item.—The Barnwell Journal of
Saturday says: “Miss Mary Lard, of Barnwell,
died on Wednesday last from the effects of mor
phine, taken by mistake for quinine. She sent
to the drug store of John S. Shuck for ten grains
of quinine on the evening before. By mistake
morphine was weighed out instead of qninine,
and Miss Lard took the whole quantity and did
sot discover the mistake until too late. The aid
of Dr. Duncan was summonedpromptly, butshe
was so completely under the effects of the opiate
that her life could not be saved. She died in
a few hours after. We deeply sympathize with
the affiicted family, and take occasion to say
that the proprietors of the drug store are sorely
distressed at this terrible accident.”
The East Biyeb Bridge.—The plan of the
late Mr. Boebling for a suspension bridge across
the East river has at last been made public.
The plan proposes a bridge 1,600 feet span and
1S5 high. This is opposed by Mr. Nolan, civil
engineer, who contends a suspension bridge is
impracticable, and submits the specification for
a tabular bridge, with arches of 500 feet span
and 200 feet above high water mark.
Some Bolling Mtt.t. and Nail Factory.—The
Courier says the immense buildings of this es
tablishment are nearly completed and the ma
chinery is being put in place. The main build
ing is 180 by 190 feet, and the machinery will be
driven by two eighty horse power engines. The
works will employ a hundred hands.
Curious.—Capti William Bone submitted yes
terday a black ball about three or three and a
half inches in diameter, found in the stomach
of a slaughtered beef. It was very solid but
light, and had a lustrous black surface. He
supposes that it is composed of hair licked by
the creature from his own coat
The French Empress will be accompanied to
Egypt by a complete staff of writers and artists,
charged to reproduce by the pen and the pencil
the principal episodes of the excursion. At the
head of the draftsmen figures Gustave Dore, and
of the chroniclers Theophile Gautier.
It is understood that General Sherman has
instructed General Canby that he is to take no
action in the matter of administering the iron
clad test oath to the members elect of the Virgi
nia Legislature until the matter shall have been
considered in Cabinet.
Newnan Jail Destroyed.—The People’s De
fender, of Thursday, says: “The county jail
was destroyed by fire last night No occupants
at the time. Incendiarism the supposed cause
of the fire. No other buildings were injured.”
Crops in Crawford.—A letter from Hickory
Grove dated 81st nit, says: “Our crops are
very fine—as good as the land can make them:
but we are having too much rain for cotton.—
The forms are falling off a good deal.
The American Agriculturist, for August, is
.an elegant number, abounding with the most
spirited illustrations. Orange Judd & Co., 245
Broadway, New York. 81.50 per annum.
« Wheat.—Wheat is worth in Knoxville—White,
one dollar to one ten—Bed, ninety cents to a dol
lar. In Nashville, Bed, one dollar; Amber, one
five; White, one fifteen. In Borne, Bed, one
dollar and thirty cents. ~
The eclipse in Macon begins 4h 42 5m, ends
6h 86 5m. If the weather does not improve, we
shall know nothing about it..
A very heavy shower fell in Macon yesterday
evening after six o’clock.
A Letter from Newnan says there are now in
that hill city, two hundred visitors seeking relief
from the healing and invigorating qualities of
its mineral waters.
The Early county News says a great deal pf
rain has fallen in that section of late, and that it
it feared cotton will soon bej£n to shed. It also
says that the caterpillar is', reported on several
plantations.

The “ Dignity of Labor”
Is doubtless very great. We are bound to be
lieve in it as much as we believe in the fif
teenth amendment —the civil rights hill and
negro suffrage. It is a dignity, however,
which mankind has ever shown a pertinacious
and obstinate propensity to escape. They
“don’t banker after it,” as they would, after a
dukedom, or a ride behind a coach and four and
a fine dinner with a bottle of old Heidsick. The
fact is, after much reflection, we have come to
the conclusion that men, as a general thing,pre
fer to lay aside the dignity as often aa is con
venient, and much more frequently and con
stantly than they should do.
It requires some strong incentive;to keep
them np to the chalk line and compel them to
accept a full and proper share of this dignity.
The highest grade of laborers work because God
has made.it their duty to labor, and it is a sin to
be idle. They work because the necessities of
the world call for it, but they long for the task
to be over, when they can stretch themselves
upon the green, sweet fields beyond the swelling
floods and enter into rest. They work often
with aching heads and aching bones and weary
limbs, and, as a general thing, they don’t like
it It does not “happify” them, as a good old
Methodist brother used to observe.
Then, as we descend in the scale of these dig
nitaries, the laborers, we find the whip and spur
applied to them to keep up to the mark of their
dignity, various in their nature and application
according to the capacity of the parties ad
dressed. The old business man keeps at work to
provide for his family, and if they have got
enough, then to heap up the measure. He works,
too, because the long habit of working has made
idleness misery, and trade and business occupa
tion has become a game with him, which he
plays with the precise feelings with which he
would pursue a game of chess or whist.
The younger man of intelligence has every
thing to spur him up both of pride and fear and
hope and love. He is whipped np to labor by a
perfect cat o’nine tail; and when we come down
to the last found of the ladder there is the sim
ple of hanger to stir np the stupid and be
sotted soul who can feel no higher motive. If
the laborer will not work, neither can he eat.
So we see that God Almighty, when he pro
nounced this “eldest primal curse” on his dis
obedient creatures, arranged matters so as to
hold them to the penalty—to enforce it, and to
bring suffering as the punishment for skulking.
He had no conception of attempting to gild the
pill by misnaming that as a dignity which he
pronounced aB a penalty for disobedience. The
only possible dignity connected with the matter
consists in a cheerful and dutiful compliance
with the decree of punishment. As a matter of
taste, considered per se, there is a good deal
more dignity in silk stockings and elegant
leisure.
Now, the misfortune of the Southern part of
the moral vineyard is that the penalty of idle
ness does not apply with that point and force
which is secured to it in more hyperborean re
gions. The lowest order of humanity cannot
be here addressed with the peremptory alterna
tives—work or freeze and starve, because they
can readily evade either. For six months in
the year clothing is not necessary to comfort,
and in the still lower latitudes it is not essen
tial at alL Moreover, food of some sort is easi
ly obtained—fire wood costs nothing—and a
little lazy pilfering and vagabondizing are all
that is necessary to subsist in idleness from
year to year.
The problem of the superior industry of the
Northmen, aside from the bracing effects of a
sharp atmosphere, finds its easy solntion in the
diminished penalties for idleness, or the incapac
ity to apply them at all. This i3 the reason
why we have so many lazy whites and lazy ne
groes in Georgia—who, having simplified their
necessities to a point very little above those of
purely savage life, are free of the stimulus to
labor. The resources of the country—the
amenities of the climate—a little hunting and
fishing, and pilfering—do away with the physi
cal necessities for labor. "What we need in
Georgia is better education—more efficient po
lice—sounder preaching, for the preachers do
not properly enforce the duty of labor, and the
sin of idleness. They should be emphatic
against this sinful idea of flanking the primal
Government Gone to the Springs.
The press telegrams announced yesterday that
there would be no regular cabinet meeting till
September, except upon emergency. The Gov
ernment hasin other words, shut npfor a month
and gone a fishing, hunting, bathing, drinking
mineral water and driving fast horses. We saw,
the other day, from the World, that Bobeson and
Borie were on a cruise with a miniature steam
er to post up in nantical affairs and the science
of navigation. In another column, it will be
seen that General Grant went to Washington,
the other day, to see “who had been there since
he'd been gone,” and found affairs so sloppy in
the White House that he went to a restaurant
for a breakfast; but was foiled in driving a bar
gain with the bar keeper. Bontwell, it is said,
i3 off the New England coast catching mackerel,
flounders, cod and haddock. Fish has gone to
Saratoga. Cresswell is laid np with a broken
arm, which is a fortunate thing for the crabs and
terrapins of the Eastern shore. Hoar is roasting
clams and lounging on the seaweed on the New
England coast. Cox is looking after his fatten
ing hogs in Ohio. Rawlings is attending to the
President’s tanning interest in Galena. The
departments, as to their heads, are all taking
holiday—Washington is a hot place—Cabinet is
closed and the Government has taken vacation
till September. This is a spectacle never seen
before in the history of the country. It shows,
or ought to show, that the country is quiet—the
rebels behaving pretty well—and if we are not
yet in a state of peace, the war has assumed a
very mild mannered and placid existence.
Mr. Greeley in 'Virginia.
The Bichmond Dispatch reports Mr, Greeley,
of the Tribune,in Lynchburg last Thursday, and
says he addressed a large crowd in the evening.
The Dispatch says:
His allusions to political affairs were brief.—
He thought that Walker’s platform embodied
the only true grounds of reconstruction. >He is
opposed to political disabilities, and advocates
the protection of the interests and rights of all
classes. He dwelt upon the great material re
sources of Virginia—especially its unparalleled
supplies of coal and iron, and its productive
soil. He urged the young men of the State to
remain, there being enough .here for all to do,
and opposed the substitution of ooolie for negro
labor.

The Eclipse of the Son.
This event, says the New York Commercial
Advertiser, is awaited with great interest A
total eclipse is very rare at any given point.
The astronomer, Halley, computed in 1715 that
up to that date no total eclipse of the sun had oc
curred at London fora period of 575 years. And
since that date none has occurred at that place.
At Paris, during the eighteenth century, but
one total eclipse of the sun was seen,that of 1724;
and during the nineteenth century, none has
been, or will be, seen. We are told by astron
omers of Washington that “no total eclipse of
the sun has been visible in any considerable por
tion of this country since 1834, and none will
be visible after this year during the present
century.”
This eclipse begins in Siberia, where it takes
a northeasterly course, till it crosses a little
south of Behring’s Straits, after which it
turns its course southeasterly traversing por
tions of our new territory Alaska, thence
into British America and through Montana,
Dakota, Nebraska, Iowa, Missouri, Illinois,
Indiana, Kentucky, Tennessee, and North Caro
lina. It ends in the Atlantic Ocean, off the
coast of the last mentioned State. All places
situated on the central line of this track will
have the sun totally obscured for a.period vary
ing from 2 min. 23 sec. to 3 min. 47.3 sec., ac
cording to geographical position. Places situa
ted on the borders of the track, or about seventy
miles on either ride of the central line, will have
the sun just covered completely for an instant;
and the duration of the total phase will be great
er the nearer the place is to the central line.
Outride of the track of total phase, on the north
ern ride, only a partial eelipse of .the sun’s
southern limb, and on the south ride of the
track a partial eclipse of the northern limb will
be seen. But the duration and magnitude of
the partial eclipse will be greater in proportion
as the place of observation is nearer the borders
of the track of total phase.
Where nothing better can be had, a bit of
plain glass, smoked over a candle or lamp, in
some parts more deeply shaded than in others,
to suit the varying intensity of the sun’s rays
during the progress of the eclipse, will enable
the observer to see most of the phenomena.
In the city it will be easy to procure pieces of
the red or ruby tinted glass, of different shades
or depths, from most of the glaziers, which may
be used with advantage, instead of the smoked
glass. Those who con command a good opera
glass, or small telescope of any kind, provided
with a shade glass to screen the eye, will of
course have a better view.

Close of the Canvass in Tennessee.
The Tennessee canvass closed up on Satur
day with a discussion between Senter and
Stokes at Nashville, in which Senter is repre
sented as triumphant. The election takes place
to-morrow. The Nashville Banner says of it:
The vote to be polled in the approaching
State elections will be the largest ever polled in
Tennessee. Added to the largely increased vote,
by the admission of colored citizens to the right
of suffrage, thousands of white citizens of the
State, hitherto unrighteonsly excluded by un
fair, partisan registration; thousands of mi
nors who have attained the legal voting age
since the war—thousands who, though fully en
titled to vote under existing laws, have never
deemed it worth their while even to apply for
certificates, will contribute to swell the vote far
in excess of any previous ballot. Of course the
full vote of the State, if permitted to be polled,
would be very much more considerable; yet,
with nn honest exercise of the registration
laws, the vote will be sufficiently large to insure
the emancipation of all from the chains of polit
ical slavery. Every legal vote in the State
should be polled in this election, if the voter
has never yet approached a ballot-box, and
never again expects to do so.
Foreseeing the result, the Northern Radical
papers are full of complaints against Bontwell
for identifying the administration with the suc
cess of Stokes. All appearances indicate that
Stokes will be miserably defeated.
Houston Railroad Meeting.
Ferry, Ga., August 3, 18C9.
In accordance with the call published a few
days ago, a large number of the most substan
tial citizens of Houston county met at the
Court-house, to express their views on the sub
ject of building a railroad from Fort Valley,
through this place, to Hawkinsville. Every
one seemed to be impressed with the import
ance of the enterprise to every class of per
sons in our populous and wealthy county. Hon.
C. C. Duncan, in a neat and appropriate speech,
stated the object of the meeting.
On motion, Mr. John T. Cooper was called to
the Chair, and Edwin Martin, Jr., requested to
act as Secretary. Mr. Duncan then read a let
ter from Mr. Hazlehnrst, the President of
the Macon and Brunswick Railroad, concerning
the probability of that road building a branch
from Hawkinsville to Fort Valley.
On motion of A. S. Giles,Esq.,a committee of
ten were appointed to draw up resolutions, ex
pressing the sense of the people in relation to
the subject under consideration.
The following persons, representing the dif
ferent sections of the county, were appointed:
A. S. Giles, Esq., O. 0. Duncan, Esq., Jos.
Tooke, Dr. B. 0. Bryan, David M. Brown, D.
W. Vischer, Josiah Hodges, Dr. S. A. Riley,
John H. Kendrick and Wm. D. Allen.
The committee having retired, Gen. Eli
Warren was called on and responded in his usual
happy style, setting forth, briefly, the benefits
that would accrue to our county from said rail
road. At the conclusion of Gen. Warren’s
speech the committee submitted the following
resolutions, viz:
Besolved, 1st. That railroad communication
with the outer world has become a matter of
vital importance and necessity to the people of
Houston connty.
2d. That such a road built from Fort Valley,
running near or through Perry and near or
through Hayneville to Hawkinsville, being as
near as practicable, an air line, would be the
most profitable as to the investment, and would
most certainly secure the objects contemplated,
to wit: The convenience and necessities of the
agricultural, mercantile and other interests.
3d. That we will heartily co-operate with any
railroad company already chartered by the Leg
islature of this State, or any other company of
capitalists that will, with the least delay and
greatest ability, undertake the construction of
the aforesaid road.
4th. That for the furtherance of the objects
contemplated in the last resolution, a committee
of five be appointed to correspond with Presi
dent Wadley, of the Central Railroad, and also
with President Hazlehurst, of the Macon and
Brunswick Railroad, to ascertain which of said
companies will most certainly, most expeditious
ly, and most ably assist in the construction of
said Road—in fine, to ascertain what they will
do, and what they expect the people to do in the
premises, and that said committee explain fully
the resources and abilities of this section to sup
port and maintain a Railroad.
5th. That when this meeting adjourn, it ad
journ to meet again on the 3d Saturday in this
month, at this place, to hear from said ccmmit-
ree of correspondence and to determine finally,
as to which of said companies we will co-operate
with.
6th. That the citizens of Pulaski county, and
of Fort Valley, are requested to be present and
co-operate with ns in said meeting.
7th. That the Macon Telegraph and Journal
and Messenger and the Hawkinsville Dispatch,
be requested to publish the proceedings of this
meeting.
Th® following committe was appointed: O.O.
Duncan, A. S. Giles, David M. Brown, B. F.
Tharpe and D. W.- Vischer. \
The meeting then adjourned.
John T. Cooper, Chairman.
Edwin Martin, Jr., Secretary.
Among those Englishmen who have lately re
ceived the honor of knighthood,' we are pleased
to. find Sir Peter Coats. His name with ns is a
familiar household word, and the relations which
he has held to this country almost make it seem
as if Her Most Gracious Majesty had selected a
genuine live Yankee as the recipient of this flat
tering testimony of her regard. There isnoth-
ing threadbare in the character of Sir Peter He
has not been dnbbed a Knight for the old tradi
tional reasons; but because he belongs distinct
ively to that new order of men—the utilitarian,
not the heroic—whose services to mankind are
all in the peaceful channels of art, industry, and
commerce.

person elected can't take the oath.
From Cuba.
Washingtos, August 3.—The Cubans here have
officialadvicesto26th. The Cubans, in therecent en
gagements, have made quite a number of prisoners,
which prevents the immediate slaughter of captured
Cubans and secures their proper treatment. The
modification extends to captured fillibnsters. Qne-
sada has completely destroyed communication with
Puerto Principe. Sickness in the city alone prevents
its occupation. Several efforts of Latona to open
communication have been disastrously defeated;
the Spanish losses being treblethose of the Cubans.
Latona's effective force at Neuvitas and in the en
tire dictrict is about four thousand. Quesada’s is
nearly nine thousand well armed and disciplined
men, prepared to advance when the health on the
coast permits.
Jordan has had several defensive fights, in all of
which the Spaniards were repulsed with proportion
ately great loss. At Villa Clara the Spaniards lost
two hundred, with arms, ammunition, wagons, ord
nance and provision trains. Another expedition
near Trinidad, to take possession of certain market
plantations, was nearly destroyed. Eighty were
killed and three hundred captured. The number of
Spaniards engaged in this fight was thirteen hun
dred; Cubans, seven hundred and sixty.
Jordan reports himself and troops in excellent
condition. He asserts that his command is equal to
three times the same number of those opposed to
him, and says they are well organized, well drilled,
and fight like demons. His force is daily increasing
by recruits. He expresses entire confidence in the
success of his cause.
Havana, August 4.—The Spanish troops had a
reeonnoisance of a party of Insurgents near Cinco
Villa and killed thirty.
Alabama Flection.
Montgomery, August 3.—This city gives Buckley
(Radical) 3082, and Worthy (Democrat) 1015 for
Congress.
Selma, Augusts.—The election passed off quietly.
Reports from several beats show considerable fall
ing off from last year’s vote. This city resulted
as follows: Buckley, 2028; Mann, 511. Bepubli-
can loss, 511; Democratic loss, 182. Union beat:
Mann, S2; Buckley, none.
Mobile, August S.—The vote in this city, for
Congress, is as follows: Mann, 410S; Buckley,
2848—majority for Mann, 1160. For Legislature—
Proskanar (Democrat) elected.
Alabama—Election of Mann in tbe Mo
bile District.
Mobile, August 4.—Mann's majority in Mobile
county, so far as heard from is fourteen hundred
and fifty-nine. Four precincts to hear from. The
connty will probably give eighteen hundred majori
ty for Mann.
At the Court-house in Baldwin county, a negro
Radical mob took possession of tbe polls and beat
one white man badly and prevented any Democratic
negro from voting. They were very riotous. The
Sheriff could not control them. That precinct gives
Buckley two hundred and twenty majority.
Pollard, the capital of Escambia county, gives
Mann one hundred and nine majority. Cliibome,
in Monroe connty, at 4 o’clock p. M..had polled three
hundred and eighty-three, all for Mann. Tho indi
cations are that Mann is elected by fifteen hundred
majority. 1
From Alabama.
Montgomery. August 4 The election tews is
meagre. As far as heard from tho poll is rntjch less
than the year previous. Tho probability is in favor
of the election of Parkinson, Democrat, in the
Third District, by a handsome majority. The con
test between Worthy, Democrat, and Buckley, Re
publican, in tbe Second District, will bo much closer
than was expected, and the latter’s friends are fear
ful of his defeat on account of the great falling off
in the negro vote.
Later.—Enough returns have been received to
indicate tbe certain election of Parkinson, Democrat,
by several hundi'ed votes in the 3d District. Buckley,
Radical, is elected in this District.

Madbid, August 8 The Captain General oi
Madrid has addressed a letter to Regent Serano
and General Prim, in which he says; “I took par)
in the revolution, hoping to see morality, law and
justice succeed former abuses. It is now ten
months since the revolution was accomplished.
My hopes hare been deceived. Greater abuses,
wide-spread immorality and deplorable anarchy
prevail—disorders to which it is absolutely necessary
to put an end. The Constitution having pro
claimed a monarchy, the immediate choice of a
king is indispensable. If the Government does not
shortly consider the question, I shall abandon all
hopes as to the consolidation of the revolution, and
retire to private life.” His letter was read in the

Cave Spring, August 3, 1869.
Editors Telegraph: I see by your daily edi
tion, whose neat, smiling, well-filled columns
greet me every morning with most refreshing
regularity, that the dwellers in your section, and
below, have had their prayers for rain answered
at last, and are likely to have too much of a
good thing. 'We, np here, had similar fears last
week, when the reign of the drought was broken
by one very good, and one tolerably ditto sea
son. The sun was quite a stranger for several
days, but this morning is out brilliantly. The
results of these rains are likely to prove very
satisfactory. Early com, of course, was almost
too far gone to be redeemed, but that coming to
maturity later in the season shows very plainly
the beneficial effects of the reinforcement.
Crops of all descriptions are springing towards
harvest with an added vigor and luxuriance most
gratifying to see.
Farmers tell me that com will open in the fall
at not over 75 cents per bushel Bead, in the
light of your propheoy of $2.00 for Macon and
vicinity next year, onr condition, in this respect,
seems enviable, indeed.
The weather just now is simply superb—no
other adjective does it justice. Not too warm
during Hie day, with an alternation of clouds
and sunshine, and pure, soft breezes whose
wooing makes the mere act of respiration a lux
ury, and the nights are even more enjoyable.
With no mosquitoes and cover an absolute ne
cessity for comfort, the most restless, nervous
man imaginable, is almost forced to sleep with
a deep, dreamless, refreshing regularity and
soundness that only he can appreciate.
I rode down the railroad six or seven miles
yesterday, in company with the owner, a gen
tleman of this place, to visit a veritable iron
mountain. I send you per express some speci
mens of the ore, that you may judge for your
selves as to its promise. It lies within fifty
yards of the railroad, and combines as many
elements—it appears to me—for successful and
profitable working, as are to be found any
where. The ore ues in single stones and huge
masses all over the mountain. Yon cannot
take a step without treading on it, and the in
dications are, as pronounced by Pennsylvania
miners who have seen it, that it is but the crop
ping ont of a very deep and extensive vein. At
the base of the monntain is a pond, kept full by
never-failing springs, and furnishing an abund
ant supply of water for furnace purposes. There
is also plenty of space for all necessary build
ings, and wood in the greatest abundance.
Here, then, you have the ore, wood, water,
plenty of room for all building purposes, right
at the mine, and transportation within almost
arm’s length. Specimens similar to those I
send you were pronounced by the miners to
whom I have alluded, as containing at least sov-
enty-five per cent of ore. Even the “lean” ore
was rated at forty-five to fifty per cent These
miners made the owner of the mountain an
offer for the property, with the intention of
erecting, at an early date, works to cost $100,-
000; but the figures were considered too low,
and so the matter stands at present I think
they will probably make another ^‘pass” yet.
On my way to this iron region several farms
were passed which, from location, character of
soil, and abundant water supply, would seem
specially suited to the raising of stock and the
production, in perfection, of the various grapes.
But for the railroad, which passes directly
through them, they would probably never have
done more than make a scanty living for the
cultivation; but now they are destined, some
day, to bring very high prioes. One of them,
in Polk county, containing three hundred and
twenty acres, with the railroad running within
one hundred yards of the house, seemed to me
particularly attractive. The owner averaged
eleven bushels of wheat per acre the last season,
and has on his farm a large quantify of as beauti
ful natural meadow as I have ever seen. These
farms can be bought for an average of $15 per
acre—the owner of the one above referred to
being anxious to sell at$500G, The country is
wild and sparsely settled, bat there is the rail?
road as the connecting link with civilization
and the markets of the world.
I was in Rome last Saturday, and hearing the
cry of a very deep-lunged auctioneer joined the
crowd gathered around him. He was crying a
vacant lot, 100 by ISO feet, lying on the out
skirts of the town, near the Rome Railroad,
which was knocked down finally at $1,800—
pretty fair price for an inland town, eh ? •
The rolling mill and nail factory of the Messrs.
Noble, at Rome, is an enterprise whose progress
towards completion is watched with much inter
est, and a visit to' which, will fill np an hour or
two very satisfactorily. The*e gentlemen are
among the moss energetic,' thriliy, and publio
spirited citizens of this section, and are
their mark upon the history of the industriw.^
volopmonts of this portion of' Georgia. They
already have at Rome, a foundry in full opera
tion, and a furnace at Cornwall, down the
Coosa river. In the rolling mill and nail factory,
they are connected with capitalists elsewhere.
The main building is 180 by 190 feet. The ma
chinery, which will be of the most approved
pattern, is to be propelled by four engines—two
horizontal of eighty horee power each, one eighty
horse power beam engine, and a smaller engine
for light work. The rolling mill will have five
trains of rollers, three of which, with the nail
factory are expected to be at work in a month,
at least. 'When complete in all its departments,
one hundred hands will fiind constant employ
ment. This is the kind of ‘ ‘reconstruction’ ’ it
delights every friend of Georgia to hear of. I
am sure no subject is more pleasing to me to al
lude to. Such triumphs of energy, and that prac
tical patriotism which is, after all, the only sort
that can really save the State, deserve wide
spread chronicling. Therefore I ask a place for
it in the Telegraph. R.

with those who advocate a different culture.

In Darkness.—On Sunday night at Wesley
Chapel, after the elose of a very able sermon by
Rev. James E. Evans, and while a great number
of penitents were in the act of kneeling for pray
er, the gas lights suddenly died out, leaving an
immense congregation, two-thirds of whom were
ladies, in total darkness. The soene for a few
minutes was one of intense excitement, but the
preacher wisely improved it is an apt illustration
of th9 sinners’" moral darkness, and his remarks
impressed his darkened auditory with feelings of
profound solemnity. Candles and lamps were
soon brought in, and after about fifteen minutes
free from stones and stumps..But was nearly as
hard as a brick when it was ploughed for the
first time in the early part of May last.
Before ploughing, I sowed upon it broadcast
“Gustin’s Superphosphate,” at the rate of 500
pounds per acre. With four mules to one of
Brinlev’s largest sized prairie ploughs it was
ploughed eight'inches deep—followed in the.
same furrow by a subsoil plough, running twelve
inches deep. The same quantity of superphos
phate was again sown broadcast and harrowed
in. The soil was thus pretty thoroughly pulver
ized and disintegrated to the depth of eighteen
or twenty inches, and enriched with superphos
phate at the rate of 1000 pounds per acre.
' You will say that that is pretty expensive.
But I will venture to say that this land will pro-
duce twice as much cotton and as much com as
the best land ona : plantation in Floyd county
which sold for $100 per acre a few weeks ago.
After harrowing it was checked off with a
small plough 3x6 feet in which the seed were
planted—a single plant only was left to a hill—
and covered with a hoe, which was the only
work done with a hoe—as the subsequent cul
ture was done entirely with Mape’s Subsoil
Lifterandahorsehpe. ‘it has been cultivated
four times with the subsoil lifter and twice with
the horse hoe.
This subsoil lifter is made of wrought iron—
is light and can easily be drawn by a single mule
or horse where the grouneb has been previously
snbsoiled. From its peculiar construction it
turns no furrow, but works under the ground
like a mole, to the depth of about fifteen inches
—slightly raising the soil as it moves along.
The soil in falling hack is pulverized at least a
foot on either side of its track.
The horse hoe is an improvement on the cul
tivator and effectually destroys all weeds and
thoroughly pulverizes the surface soil.
At the first working of the cotton the subsoil
lifter was run four times between the rows the
Hide way—three times the second—twice the
third time—and once at the last working, run
ning as closely as possible to' the plants every
time.
There is no danger of destroying or injuring
the roots by this method of culture if the plough
is not run so near that the swingle-tree breaks
the branches—on the contrary, it is the very
best preparation for the rapid multiplication
and extension of the small fibrous roots which
are the feeders to the plants.
"Thisdeep culture mustbekeptup from the
beginning. If the roots are prevented from
growing downwards by the hardness and pover
ty of the soil below, and are forced to extend
themselves only near the surface, deep plough
ing, under such circumstances, would undoubt
edly mutilate these roots to the injury of the
plant and cause it to shed its fruit'
This cotton is now about five and a half feet
high, and where the stand is perfect the branch
es meet in every direction, and are so heavily
laden with fruit that some of the branches are
splitting off with the weight
It was planted on the 9th of May and has
grown rapidly from the start It was not in
jured in the least by the drought, and at that
time not a single fallen boll, square or form
could be found. Since the rains I have noticed
a few fallen squares. Plants growing on a soil
cultivated so deeply can hardly be injured by
drought and are benefitted in various other
ways.
It must be remembered that the atmosphere
is the great store-house from which plants de
rive at least nine-tenths of the substances of
which they are composed. Ammonia is con
stantly escaping into the atmosphere from de
caying animal and vegetable matter. Carbonic
acid gas and water are largely diffused in the
atmosphere, and tbe hotter the weather the
more water is held in suspension. We all know
how large a portion of a tree is charcoal or
carbon, and that when it is burnt and combines
with the oxygen of the atmosphere and becomes
carbonic acid gas—an invisible gas escaping in
to the atmosphere—howlittle is left behind as a
residuum. That little is the product of the soil.
What has disappeared is substance derived from
the atmosphere.
Now, if the soil be deeply pulverized, so as to
allow a free circulation of the atmosphere
through it, the watery vapor is condensed by
coming into contact with the cool substratum of
the earth, on the same principle that the atmos
phere condenses upon the sides - of a pitcher
filled with cold water upon a warm mid-summer
day—thus supplying the roots with moisture
holding in solution those fertilizing gases which
the atmosphere contains, so necessary to the
growth and development of the plant, and in
this condition so readily to be taken np by its
roots and fibres.
Besides all this, these atmospheric gases and
water make soluble and a food for the plant
other substances in the earth, which without
them, would remain insoluble, inert and useless.
A deeply pulverized soil has still another ad
vantage in dry weather. It draws up the mois
ture from below, upon the principle of capil
lary attraction, which may be illustrated by hold-
ing a lump of loaf sugar part way immersed in
your cup of coffee. The sugar will immediately
draw up sufficient of the liqnid to become satu
rated with the moisture.
All these advantages are greatly diminished
or entirely lost in a -hard, compact soil. When
the rains fall—impregnated with these fertili
zing gases—if the soil be deeply mellowed and
porous, they are absorbed at once and penetrate
to the roots of the plants, with their rich bur
den of life and health. But if only the surface
is mellow, and the ground be sloping or hilly,
most of the rain runs off, carrying with it much
of the surface mould into the streams below.
On the other hand, should the ground be level
it lies upon the surface till evaporated by the
sun and the enriching gases escape again into
the atmosphere which should be appropriated by
the crop.
Water whioh lies upon the surface till evap
orated by tbe son makes'the ground cold. It
takes the heat from it to oonvert the water into
vapor, upon the same principle that a room or
side-walk is cooled by sprinkling with water on
a sunny day. Finally, if the water remains npon
the surface long enough to become stagnant, it
becomes so poisonous to the plants that they torn
jeUow and sickly.
lt '*ould be easy, Messrs. Editors, to prolong
these re^jfcg indefinitely, but I have no time.
I hold you •^sponsible, altogether for this ap
parent obtrnsfc- m y views. I have no de
sire to champiomzw^j- or combat con
flicting opinions—but, appealed to me

Coubtlaxd, Ala., August 2, p. si.
About two o’clock this afternoon, while Dr,
H&ughey, Conservative Republican candidate
for Congress, was on the stand, delivering a
speech, he said all the Hinds speakers were
hirelings. Hinds represents the extreme Radi
cal wing of the Republican party, and is alse a
Congressional candidate. No sooner bad Dr.
Haughey used the hireling expression than Dr.
Collins, a friend of Hinds, called him a d-—-d
bar, at the game time advancing toward him.
Haughey returned the belligerent epithet, when
both clenohed. During the struggle, which last
ed only about half a minute, Haughey was abet
in the Ipft br^st, just under the n,Tnth rib. The

Burglaries are again becoming altogether vj
prevalent in this city. Scarcely a night paaeet u|
the premises of one or more citizens sre not va»|
by the villains who lie about town in concealsel
during the day, and at night venture forth toiil
and plunder. It is now quite dangerous to retrt J
night without seeing to it that the doors and $1
dows of your house are properly secured. And uJ
would we urge upon citizens the propriety of hoi
ng a revolver by the side of their beds at cisl
within reach of the hand, so that when a nntrl
prowler presents himself at their windows or das I
they may “down” him as they lie in bed before si I
aware that his presence is known. One ortwcrJ

Since the foregoing was written, we Ieam th; k I
attempt was also made to enter the residence of h I
Sam. Porter on Friday night last, but a lady tad |
the burglar in his efforts to prize open the vfiJc I
blinds, gave the alarm, and he made himself car: |
before Mr. Porter got a shot at him.
Fine Paintings—YTe have been shown two spsl
imens of miniature oil paintings, on ivory board. ;|
Miss Roeine Dela Torre, of South Carolina, wind I
for beauty of finish, delicacy of shading, exquisal
outlining, and the soft, natural blendings of coital
surpass anything of the kind ever exhibited a I
this city.
Both paintings are miniature oopies from I
the great Italian artist. The one is from his i'.'l
donna di San Sisto, (painted between 1517 til
1520,) in the Dresden Gallery, representing the Ti-1
gin, Btandmg in majestic attitude with child iikl
arms, in presence of a preist, while other figust; I
inf ants are represented on the canvas. The pfij
mg is said to have been executed at once ly til
great artist, without any preliminary stndy, itdhl
been engraved in a style not unworthy of the c»l
inal, by Freiderich Muller; and Miss Torre is rep I
during the picture in oil colors from an engwixl
seems to have worked with the genius of the P-l
master himself. The other is simply the held &|
shoulders of one of Raphael's Madonnas, aadal
fur artist has given ns a female face of surpi»y|
beauty, and finished off in a style that would iihj
any painter in this day and time.
We predict for Miss Torre a brilliant careerii'J|
