night was very warm—the writer had been
without sleep two days, and has, moreover,
passed that age in which late suppers sit lightly
on the stomach, the craft will held him excused
that, rather than mar good fellowship by a
timid and hesitating example, he incontinently
vamosed.
But a noble rally was effected under the lead
of the handsome member from tho Southwest
who, as Chairman on tho Constitntion. was pro-
perly put in charge of proceedings. Major Hul
sey opened the ball with a neat and appropriate
speech, and the last note caught by the ears of
the “flying squadron ’ was the sound of merry
voices and popping corks, which promised a
good time generally.
Atlanta has behaved very handsomely and
generously to the press, and every member will
take away the most pleasant memories of the
place and people. The Mayor, who looks veiy
young to carry such a weight of civic honors, is
a gentleman of fine person and manners and a
fair representative of the young and enterpris
ing spirit which pervades and governs this rising
city. Its growth and development since its
wicked and needless destruction by Sherman in
1864, are unexampled. The town covers a large
area and boasts of thirty or forty thousand peo
ple, and a rapidity of progress which may be
exemplified by the fact thnt nearly twelve hun
dred houses are in course of construction at this
moment. Chicago herself never made greater
speed than that; and all the money which is
now being made in Atlanta—all the personal
thrift in existence here just now, is due simply
to the overflowing confidence of her people in
the glorious destiny which awaits them. Trade j
itself is overdone, and has not yet fonnd time ,
to settle down into smooth and natural channels, j
It will do that by and by. The city is yet one J
There have been received of the new crop, to date,
at this point, 84 bales.
The market has been steady, with a good demand,
all the week under review, at 31 cents for middlings.
To-day, however, the market was not so strong, and
prices fell off fully one cent. We quote middlings
this evening at SO cents.

General Remabes.—With the exception of yes
terday and to-day, the week, closing this evening,
has been the dullest of the season, in point of trade
generally. The dry goods market has been almost
at a dead stand-stilJ, while in groceries and provi
sions trade has been very dull and quiet. Yesterday
and to-day, however, there was more activity, and
the sales of the two days will foot up very well for
the season.
The money market continues tight, and for sev
eral days past we have heard much complaint about
the insufficiency of money to meet the demands of
trade. The incoming cotton crop will soon remedy
this matter.
The stock and bond market is so dead that it has
ceased, apparently, to attract the slightest atten
tion. There is no surplus money to invest in this
class of securities, and we have to lower our figures
considerably from what they were at last quotations.
Thew now stand about thus:

PAINLESS DIGESTION.
“No man,” says Sir Astley Cooper, “ought to know
by his sensations that he has a stomach.” In other
words, when digestion is perfect there is neither
pain nor uneasiness in the region where it takes
place. Nausea, want of appetite, flatulency, op
pression after eating, shooting pains in the epigas
trium, a flushing of the face at meal times, and a
furred tongued in the morning, are among the direct
symptoms of indigestion. Constipation, bilious,
ness, headache, nervous irritation, physical weak
ness, and low spirits, are its almoet invariable ac
companiments. All these indications of dyspepsia,
whether immediate or secondary, are usually aggra
vated by hot weather.
The close of summer is therefore the season when
the victim of dyspepsia most urgently needs a tonic
and regulating medicine. Of course, every invalid
has many advisers. One friend recommends one
drug, another another; but in a multitude of coun
sellors there is not always safety. The standard
remedy of the present age for indigestion, in all its
stages, is HOSTETIER’S STOMACH BITTERS.
Time, that proves all things, has established its rep
utation on an impregnable foundation,—the sponta
neous testimony of millions of intelligent witnesses.

Bad Report of Crops from Monroe.
Moneoe County, Ga., August 23,1869.
Editors Tdegrarih—Seeing no “report from
old Monroe of the crop prospects, etc., only
what is copied from the Advertiser, I have
thought proper to make known
cotton on upland is very nearly “gone up.” I
think from the surroundings there will not be
more than a half crop of cotton made this year,
that is in this region of country. In our local
ity nearly all the fruit of the present month
has shed—owing to the excessive and continued
dry weather. The like I have never seen be
fore. It is opening rapidly, though much of it
prematurely. It is no use to disguise tho fact
any longer—the cotton crop in this section will
be a poor one. In all probability it is a bless
ing in disguise. Our planting friends have had
guano and cotton on the brain to such an ex
tent that little else was talked or thought of.
Those who are depending on their cotton crop
to buy their com supplies for another year will
surely “catch it,” unless they can all arrive at
the conclusion and satisfy themselves, as one i
of that class did to me the other day, that “com ‘
was a humbug,” and that he had learned how
to make a crop without expense. All that de
luded class (and their name is legion) who have
been hugging the delusive phantom, bale to the
acre, and upwards, had as well begin to console
themselves, for they wont get it “nary time,”
from present indications. Traly yours,
A. J. P.
The Seaport Appeal of Brunswick, of the 21st
inst., says:
Cheemno.—About one hundred laborers ar
rived yesterday for the Brunswick and Albany
Railroad. Hundreds more wanted. Report at
Brunswick.
Still Peogbessing.—Despite the injunction
of the moneyed monopolies of the Southern hub,
the work on the B. & A. R. R. is progressing in
such a manner as to cheer all friends of Bruns
wick in her efforts to establish competition end
relieve the masses from the clutches of the pow
erful Central Railroad monopoly.
Referring to a proposed visit by the Tfle-
gbahh in the fall, the Appeal says:
We say to onr Macon cotemporaries, that we
shall welcome them all the more cordially be
cause their presence among ns will be by rail.
Connected with them by rail, we shall feel that
they are our neighbors; and it will be alike our
pleasure and interest, to cultivate the most
friendly and intimate relations with them, and
the business men of the flourishing city from
whence they come.
Take Macon all in all, her press, her business
men, the style and bearing of her citizens gener
ally, and she is perhaps the most popular city
with the people, of any in the State. Why is
this ? Is it not owing in a largo measure, to the
wise, liberal and unselfish policy which she has
maintained in relation to all questions of inter-
prises seems to be, “Live and let live.” She is
prosperous and her prosperity is deserved, and
will, no doubt, be permanent.
“Pink” writes from New York, 19th instant,
to the Charleston Courier:
From Ohio the news is quite cheering. Pen
dleton will be elected Governor, and that, too,
with the assistance of numerous Republican, vo
ters. Trig popularity among the masses surpass
that enjoyed by any other public man in the
State, and the financial question there—what
ever the Republican leaders may say to the con
trary—is looked upon in the same light by both
the Republican and Democratic voters. In a
week or two, when the canvass wiU be at its
height there, all eyes will be turned toward
Ohio: no singlo State election having occurred
for years which so generally attracts the atten
tion of the entire Union as will the Ohio elec
tion in October. Of course, Eastern Demo
crats cannot, for consistency sake, stump Ohio
for Pendleton, but whatever moral or material
aid in the shape of funds for defraying the ex
penses of Pendleton’s election to the Guberna
torial Chair will be required will be liberally
granted by the members of Tammany Hall and
of tho Manhattan Club.
RrsT.—The recent rains appear to have
checked the rust in cotton. We hear very little
mention of it-on stiff lands, though sandy lands
suffered much previous to the rains.
Rain.—We had a fine rain in this section on
Sunday. Crops, generally, are doing very well;,
though, in some parts of the oonnty, rust and
drought have greatly injured them. <
f [ Wat Georgia Gazette, 2Gth.
The Rome Courierof the 24th says: Weleam
that crops are materially injured in Polk coun
ty, from the long continued drought. Much of
the com is .nearly ruined, and the cotton badly
damaged. • . . • •
Last Sunday was one of the hottest days ever
known in Rome. The thermometer, at 8 o clock
p. m. , stood at 104 degrees, and at 9 p. m. at 89
degrees. The nights daring the past week have
been unusually warm for this locality.

Plantation Bitters ? They sell better now than
when I advertised at such enormous expense, and
now I have not made a contract for a year. I have
all this amount to give to the poor. To satisfy the
press, however, who have always been my friends,
I think I will give you a little something to do

And so he ran on, in a happy, cordial, appreciative
manner, showing ns the wonders of his place, and
the cords of certificates. Everything is on a mag

come in for these celebrated bitters. Cases were
shipped to the four comers of the world. Drake is

Given under my hand and the great seal of the State,

SCHOFIELD’S PATENT COTTON PRESS.
rpHIS PRESS mu-t commend.itself to the cotton planters of the Southern States for it* durability, aim-.
A plicity of construction, and ease with which itcan oe operated by either band, horse, water or steam power,
the change from one to the other being effected in a few minute.'. A great advantage this Press rorsesses, is
that it occupies for hand power only a .-pace of fr urteen feet square, and may be placed and operated in the
Gin House, thus avoiding the ne-es-ity of taking cotton out of ho house to be packed. It can be used in any
kind of weather; the Press being in the house, rainy days a-euo obstacle to packing, as i« the case with
wooden screws. Another advantage is, when yon get Schofield’s Press, you have a Press for all time, and one
not liable to decay or breakage, as 5? thecae with the old wooden screws, and arst other iron sorews and
presses This is evident from the fact that the screw is iron, either wrought or cast, and the frames are of
wrought iron, and no part of the Press liable to decay touches the ground. The frames may be made' of
wood, at the option of tne planter. Planters may purchase either the screw andnut aione, nnd put the frame
and box of wood to it themselves, or may purchase the screw, nut and iron frames, and put the wooden bo*
to it, or they may purchase the Press complete, with screw, nut. iron frames and box, making the most com-
ploto Press in use. Presses complete, as last named, are in more general use, and give great satisfaction to
all parties usinf; them, a* will be seen from letters in my possession. Parties in need of Cotton Presses would
do well to call, if possible, and examine mine; or if toey should favor me with their order, they may rely
upon getting a Press that is all I c aim for it. _
Having the most extensive lion Works in the city, and the greatest variety of patterns of all kinds, I am
able to furnish parties witb any kind of machinery or castings at short notice.

To the Principal Keeper of the Penitentiary :
Whereas. At the June Term of tho Superior Court,
held in and for the county of Dougherty. A. D., 1833,
Jim Jones, a person of color, was tried for, and con
victed ofthe crime of burglary in the night, and was
therefor sentenced by the Judge presiding at said
conrt, to he imprisoned at hard labor in the Peni
tentiary of this State for and during the term of his
natural life, and
Whereas, It appears upon a careful examination of
the testimony adduced upon said trial, that the crime
committed by the prisoner, is, that he crawled under
a store, then occupied by one Ned HiU, a person of
color, about S o’clock at night, partially raised a plank
from the floor thereof, the same not being nailed
down or otherwise fastened, but loose and easily
moved, and at the time of discovery, “was in the act
of reaching with his hand to take some candy from a
jar,” said to contain two pounds and Talued at the
sum of one dollar in currency; and
Whereas, Itis not stated in, nor proven by the tes
timony aforesaid, that he, the said Jim Jones, did
break said store, orsteal, or take therefrom anything
or things of value; and
Whereas, The prisoner has served out more than
one year of the sentence aforesaid, and the punish
ment already inflicted is more than commensurate
with the crime committed; and the sentence of im
prisonment for life being manifestly unjust;
Now, therefore, in consideration of the facts and
circumstances aforesaid, and the finding of the jury
being inconsistent with the evidence elicited at the
trial, and to the end that justicemay be done, I, Rufus
B. Bullock, Governor and Commander-In-Chief of
the Army and Navy of this State, and of (the Militia
thereof, by virtue of the power and authority in me
vested by the Constitution and laws of this State, do
hereby fully and freely pardon the said Jim Jones of
the crime of which he stands convieted, as heretofore
recited, restore him to his Civil rights as a citizen of
this State, and order that he be forthwith discharged
and set at liberty.
