Weekly Review of the fclarket.
OFFICE DAILY TELEGRAPH, 1
August 11—Evening, 1869. j
We have to report a very dull week both in the
wholesale and jobbing trade of the city, this even
ing. As is the case almost every where' else at' this
season, there ie nothing worth reporting in the dry
goods line—trade being confined altogether to a
light rotail demand.
Money is now tighter in this market than at any
time within the last six or eight months,as the banks
have about exhausted their vaults in advances upon
cotton, warehouse acceptances, etc., and it requires
A1 paper to call for the cash and only in limited
amounts at that.
The stock and bond market is perfectly stagnant
and nearly all kinds of tbiB class of securities are
gradually falling off in price. No demand. We re

-^233-05. August 11.—The following is telo-
request;
n. folk, tins statement is made public by per-
of tlio President: In an interview with
^firbell. Secretary of tho Republican Executive

rexwied on the small number of Republicans

hjafeoent tbe fact was in itself evidence that

„ Tho President said that bis only desire was
,.1*1 amity, and ho would do anything that was
’• a taing that abont; but that these people cast
|..v.:c» upon their own motives, by the fact that
fjorta seemed to be aimed at dividing, not
.gg Republican party, in their midst. If they
swEf in earnest, they would not ho so anxious
jjthote with whom they acted. Tosinccremen
f-rjiaot be difficult to tell who, in the South, were
3jaJ been tbe Administration’s friendB. The
t stated that, in hi3 conversations with the
i representing the new Republican party
[y^Mrippi, lie had expressed himself much more
taacafly against their course than ho had to
._TuUU. He said he fully indorsed Gen. Ames’
ttion, and that that officer would have to
tad more serious things than he had heard
Itai, before he would subject himself to re-

A'Model Fajul—An intelligent and well posted
gentleman of this city recently visited .the planta
tion of Messrs. J. G. and D. W. Vischer, in-Houston
county, about two miles from Fort Valley, and has
tbe following to say on the subject: . u
Mr. Local of Telegraph : It was my good for
tune, on Friday last, to spend the day on the farm
of Messrs. J. G/ and D. W. Vischer, in Houston
county. I was met at the depot in Fort Valley by
one of these gentlemen, and after a drive of about
two miles to the country, in a buggy drawn by a
spanking span of horses, raised on his farm, be
alighted me at his most pleasant and comfortable
headquarters. After enjoying its hospitalities for
an hour, we strolled out to take a look at the crops,
and they were, indeed, magnificent. I saw on this
farm, lands that with no disaster are good for abate
of cotton per acre, and twenty-five bushels of com
per acre is considered a low estimate; and tHs, too,
is on lands which, twelve months ago. would not
produce more than one-fifth this amount. The com
crop on this farm is made, and is very fine, while
the cotton promises to yield abundantly. There is
some little rust showing itself, since the long wet
spell, but not enough to cause any uneasiness, just
yet.
In addition to their fine farm, these gentlemen
have on their place a fruit-canning manufactory,
which cans, per day, twelve hundred cans, holding
three pounds each . They are now canning some of
the finest peaches in the country, raised on their
farm. Those who have tried them, and are far bet
ter judges of such things than mvBelf, say they are
much finer flavored than those prepared further
North; which opinion I endorse, and I am sure they
will find ready sale among our merchants, as I can
see no canse why we should go abroad to purchase
such fruits when we can get a far superior article
at home. The Messrs. Vischer think of increasing
the capacity of tho establishment next year, so as to
manufacture about three hundred thousand cans of
fruit each season.
They are also engaged in another and grander
enterprise—the building of a cotton factory, and the
work is now being pushed rapidly along, and they
hop3 to have their machinery running in time to
manufacture a portion of their own cotton crop this
year. This is certainly another st6p in the right di
rection, on the part of these spirited and enterpris
ing gentlemen. In this factory they hope to employ
many of the poor people of Houston county, who
are now little else than drones, and enable them to
make a good living for themselvek. You and I, Mr.
Editor, and all who would see the South prosperous
and happy, can but wish for the success of this and

Vischer who will yet work out the deliverance of our
land and people.
On this model farm I saw nearly everything which
nearly all of our people purchase, and raised right
there, from the fine, large and dashing span of car
riage horses down to the Berkshire pigs and broods
of chickens. They raise their own horses, mules,
cattle, sheep and hogs; their corn, wheat, oats and
hay; their own variety of fruits; their own poultry,
and, in fact, nearly everything they use, and now
they are preparing to manufacture their own cloth
ing; thus, step by step, getting further away from
that dependence upon the North which is now the
great barrier to Southern progress. Such men, sir,
are the hope of the country.
There are several other fine farms in this neigh
borhood, but I bad not an opportunity to visit them.
Will do so when a chance presents itself. Among
them I would mention those of CoL Anderson, Col.
Edgeworth, Mr. Harris and Dr. Austin.
I would state before closing, and for the benefit
of anti-guanoists, that CoL Roundtree, of the neigh
borhood to which I have referred, has already pur
chased 100 tons of guano, for the next year’s crop.
There is great faith in fertilizers in that neighbor
hood, and the crops show that the faith is well
grounded. Yours until my next,

First Bale.—The first bale of the cotton crop of
1869, that we have heard of, in this State, was
received here yesterday, at the warehouse of
Jonathan Collins & Son. It was from the planta
tion of Mr. P. W. Jones, in Baker county, Ga., and
i was classed New York middlings. The bale weighed
12}£ 491 pounds. It was shipped by express to O. F.
Adams, Esq., of this city, who ia now in Boston.
This cotton was raised from the Dixon seed, and
was a very beautiful sample of upland cotton or
short staple. The producer, we understand, was
offered 40 cents per pound for it, hut his word was
out to forward his first bale as above stated.
The first bale of the crop of 1803 was received in
Macon on tho ISth of August last, by Messrs. Hard
eman & Sparks. It was grown in Houston county,
by Messrs. Smith & Rosb, and weighed 525 pounds.
It classed New York middlings.

DOUBLE BRIDGE. UPeON COUNTY, JUNE £7, 1869.
Yonr* of the 17th came to hand on yesterday and contents noticed. The Cast Iron Screw I bought of you
last fall gives entire satisfaction. I commenced packing my crop without weighing in the cotton, thinhing
that £00 pounds was beingput in: but when I came to sell my cotton the bass weighed from 600 to Suo pounas.
I sold the cotton to Swatts Sr. Brown, at Baroesville, and anyone doubting the weight can be furnished the
receipts from the above parties. I have been farming all my life, and have used many different screws, bat
this one is the best I ever saw. In packing my crop X never used but one mule. I take pleasure in recoir
mending the Screw to planters generally. i>. «. iyddiddd.

MILLEDGEVILLE. JUNE 17. 1869.
Dear Sir.—I am nsiag one of your 4 inch Cotton Press Screws, 3 inch pitch, with levers, adapted to
mule-power. I, however, never nse mule-power but run it down by hand. I am satisfied that it will no
more work in the same time, and with much more ease, than the old wood screw, and that it is ten times
as durable. Ycu will allow me. at the same time, to recommend your horse-power as a valuable power to
gin cotton. Yours respectfully. JOHN JONltb.
PERRY, JUNE 21, 1869.

It is the cheapest, easiost and most convenient packing apparatus I have seen. I have seen two
hands pack a bale of cotton that we supposed to weigh 5U0 pounds.
