Jbu Editor. -~On IhcrsUay lest, I
treat to year city to see iho 15th
AineiKhiumt, auJ 1 saw it. I Lnd
heard and read a good deal about it,
and I was curious to sue wb-it kind ot
a thing it whs. I don’t know what
form the animal takes m Atlanta, and
places lower down; but in this locality
it behaved like: a u?.iid, kind and gentle
beast.
I could hud no one ab’e to explain
why it turned out to celebrate the bat
tle of Bull Kuo, or '•why they threw
down "de shovel and de hoe,” and
took holiiday before the crops were
laid by. I asked my worthy foreman,
Robert Mark Johnson, (col.; for uu
explanation, itml he replied in his usu
al nervous and emphatic wuV, that ‘de
lazy debil* was a dodging her work,
Jat for his part, ho would be shamed
to show his face dare, and de grass
just a lukiu his cotton.” A good deal
of allowance has to be made tor Hob
art's answer, ns Le is one of ilie few
.old fogies left, who renliy feeis that
there is more honor and profit in
standing up to bi contract, even if the
sou is hot, thui there is iu m irc-uug
around, making a fool of himself, eii
ebrating something he knows noiLnng
about. When I arrived ut the pluec,
that the thing bud uncoiled itself at,
I found myself in a beautiful grove, m
the outskirts of the city. 'JLLe biuluce
of the ground was undulating, ana the
large and once valuable crowd, couki
be seen to great adiautage. On my
left could be seen tLe smoking pus,
and the long tables, where lUe unimai
whs to be led. On n y right, m me
midst of a dense crown of frocks, and
fms, and fifteenths, a speakers aiai.d
could be seen, from the lop of which
the instinct was to be nourished uuu
cultivated. 1 directed my bteps to me
right, and when I got neai enough to
the rostr um to notice who occupied it;
xny heart bounded with joy unu grat
itude; for I felt thut my countiy was
safe, for there was Col. Lewis iutulnj,
(white) Col. J. J. Howmd, (wiiiie;
Maj. John McGee, (col.) una the Kev.
James Hilsou, (col.) x was ve* - y so*-
ty that I had como too late to hear tue
speech of the Hon. Col. Lewis iiuultu.
I heard that his performance was very
impressive, and not oue of ins sent.-
ments, waa wasted on th it large uuu
highly appreciative audience. v-oi.
Howard was discoursing when 1. came
up, and the multitude were listening
with rapt attention, to the words oi
wisdom, as they flowed from his lips.
Nor did I wonder at it, for the Coi’s
manner is bo impressive that it is cal
culated to make any crowd think thut
he is iu earest. But there are always
skeptics in every assembly, and lLeaid
oue old darkey remark *dut dose two
white men seem to love us a heap;
wonder if dere cotton ain’t grassy ?
It waa Maj. John .UcGv.e s turn next,
to «ay his speech, and lie said it wl.ic
out missing a word. Ho was never ut
a loss for language to ex mess his lUeab
for he was not at »ul particular. His
speech was a good good one. ile gave
the crowd some of tlio sharpest hits,
on the peculiarities of h:s race. J. have
heard for some time. He proved to
them that they could never elevate
themselves by imitating all tue follies
and none of the virtues of the white
race.
He was followed by the Rev. James
Hil&ou, who spoke on ld.ee-love-ism,
and so-called Social Equality, Hu
spoke directly to the compieutns.ou
of his bearers, anil they took, in a
kindl,* manner, his rebukes and esar
ca« a%, when, if ihev had been told tne
same tilings by a white ta.*n, they
would have been outraged,
In conclusion, lie addressed himseit
to the “m tixuih," w ho were listening.
He said that when the blacks weie
first made free, being very ignorant,
and naturally suspicions of tour loi
mer owners, they buttered themselves
to bo duped by every s.rolling vaga
bond from Vankee-iaud. That agi out
many ministers from t h c Methodise
Church, North, had come among them,
that iu a short time tne property at
the South would ail be u*viued out,
among them, and social equality be
made the law of the lund. 'lhey al
ways, before leaving, took up u colicc
tioujand the pjor ignorant creatures,
with the prospect of future vveabn,
would willingly give uw,»y the httlu
they bad, to tue her.dds oi aucu joyful
tidings. At lust their eves were open
ed by a Mi. Caldwell, who came and
preached a few days for tuem, ana
v»u«u ready to leave, told tuem that
he did not preach for money, but u
was nothing but right tuat u»oy suouia
pay his hotel hill, ibe hat vv..s nanu
cd around, the sum collected, antimiae
tnl iu his hands, and tne Hi vine mess
ed them and left. A snort tune alter
he waa gone, the hotel keeper calleu
npon the stewards of the cmucu to
pay the bill of the Rev. scoundrel, as
he had been refered to tuem ha his
pay.
The speeches were all calculated to
do good. I didn’t hear a word about
politics. The harmony utid good-feei-
ing of the occasion, was muiuiy owing |
to the fact that the pestiferous, idle, j
mischief making politicians of the city ;
bah gone down to attend the giauu !
orgies at Atlanta. That was the pluck '
for them, for no matter how seii-iru- j
portaut and impudent they were i
here, in Atlanta tier would hud that!
they yet hitdj to learn the alphabet j
of rascality. Ju everything that was
mean and villainous, tucy would feel
Hke babies among giants.
After the speaking, dinner was an- j
noucced, apd the order and decorum '■
they preserved, showed that they were I
under excellent discipline, One oi!
the features of the celebration was the
marching in procession o f different 1
bands, each with a leader, all singing j
as thev marched, the leader beating I
time with bis handkerchief. The mu- j
Sic they made to the ear, |
and all seemed to enjoy it hugely. It
was worth a visit thtre to see old Ben
Latimer, disguised in clean clothes,
with a broad sash, thrown artistically
across bis breast, leading hia choir,
both with gesture and voice I knew
by his look of supreme self-satisfaction,
that bo would aoc exchange ku* poai
tjoc.icr 'a Marshall's baton.
AiN>r Q*n£u»r, a misunderstanding

; * have Lever got over the big scute I
I got during the war, and .was fast
getting horribly fnglitened; when at u
word, the Rev. J«tt' Milner, rallied his
dock around the stand, and gave out
and sung that Holds hymn—
Rock of ages cleft for me, *
Let me hide myself in thee.
It acted like a charm. Human pas
sion was lulled for a time. I hid close
to tLe stand, until the singing and
praying was over; then left, before the
curbing commenced again.
bleu. Wofford addressed the crowd
in the afternoon, and if his speech
closed the exercises, I know nil who
listened to him, determined, at least,
to try to boa better people.
I went to th© celebration to have a
little scent fun, to observe and to crit
icise. I had not been there long, be

good feelings a roused. I wish them

1. Notice is given Hat tliG office of
the State Agricultural Society has
been removed to most ample and suit
able halls, with offices attached, in the
basement, of the Capitol. Members ot
the Society, and visitors to the city
especially, and our citizens generally,
are invited ut any and all bushiest,
hours to visit the library md reading
room and museum. •,
2. The thanks of offic_r3 and mem
bei'H of the society are due John lv.
Dukes, Esq., Preside'n. of the Wundo
Manufacturing and Mining Company,
who, through Col. B. C. Presley, of the
law firm ol Presley, Lord & li.golsby,
for specimens of tonsil bones aim teeih
found in their pho-phate mines. Tliev
embrace the sections of the vertebreal
of extinct Sanri, which were over thir
ty feet m length; the tusks of the Jbeu.

teeth four times the size of any living
variety, fchnne of these specimens ure
impieguatid with iron.
•i. The fo.l ivving loiter is upon n
subject of such general interest us to
justify publication. It whs hied in
this office by Judge Ezzurd:
Lawrencevillf, June 20, 1870.
Hon. Wm. Lizard, Mayor:
Dear Sir—Piesident Otr informed
me last week tout he hud a letter Horn
Col. Lewis, inquiring whether he
know of any conisdcrablo quantity of
pyvi es on or near the Lne of any rail
road Ge »rgia. Col. L. says our man
ufacturers of fenilizers wish to prepare
their own sulphur if they can procure
the pyr.tes.
Both copper and iron pyrites exist*
in any desirable quantities in the goiu
veins within on.} and a half miies ol
Sugar Hill, and north of that place on
the Air-Line Railroad. I suppose
many tons of the finest variety could
be j icked up among the ruuhisli on
the top of the ground, which protects
the veins of the gold bearing quiutz on
either side. If the comp u.y to which
Cob L. alludes, will establish a depot
at Sugar Hill, Georgia will lave no
occasion to send abroad for sulphur.—
I do not know where Col. Lewis is at
present, and therefore communicate
this infoimation to you that you may
let ull parties concerned know the
facts.
I am, truly yours,
James 1\ Summers.
4. An appeal is made to the liberali
ty of the Tress of the State io send
their pape.s legnhilly to this office
without charge. The object of this
request is in au if old. The office has
and will have thousands of and enments
and circulars, etc, to issue. \v ith
fresh issues daily and weekly of the
Press spread -out upon our tables, we
will have at one view the names vs per
haps twenty thousand business men in
every depaitxuent oi industry, to whom
we can send our documents. Again,
the Library and Museum a taclmd to
the office, are daily increasing in inter
est and importance. The coniribu
tions of the papers of the Stale will
gieatly add to this interest, aud wdi
make tue rooms of the Socie
ty a most attractive resort to members
ami visitors from u distance while m
the city. Assurance is given to ah
publishers uud editors who will com
ply with this request, that their hies
snail never be taken from the Lil rary,
and shall, alter having antvultd the
immediate wauts ol the office, become
permanent hies and pit-served lor rei
erente and fur histoii.ai and statisti
cal iuquiriei fur winch they will bemore

time.
5. Delegates and members, and visi
tors to the con v eil tn ui m e urged to

them a • few precious stouts or other
valuable cohtnbutious to the museum.
It each delegate (should bring w’lth him
the most curious and interesting spec
imens whether mineral, fossil, earth,
plant or other object of natural histo
ry, it would present at once a most in
teresting spectacle in itself aud per
haps the highest evidence of the great
variety of sod, vegetation, climate, and
of the varied productive, capacity of
the State. Let all try.

take into consideration such measures

Our Schools, male and fema’e, fall
terms, open next Monday for the reception
of pup 1«. It will be remembered that very
important cl anges have been effected in the
instruction of tnese schools. The ('arterr
vi le Female S hooi will be under the join!
instruction of Rev. James L. Fierce and (Jol.
J. Walter Pritchett, assisted in the pr mary
department by M<ss 'I. P. Kiugsbery. .ill ol
whom are old and experienced teachers.—
Rev. J. L. Pierce was, for many years, Pres
ident of Madison Female College, in thin
State, where he won a reputation as a fe
male teacher, to be despi: e*l by none and
envied by ail -a true, Christian gentleman,
rij'e scholar, and an acceptable and beloved
minister of the <>ospel. while Col. Pritcli* tr,
as an efficient tcfioher and profound scholar,
stands uniivatied in Therokee Georgia, us
all wl o have patronized him heretofore can
testify. Miss Kirgsbery as far as she pro
fesses to teach, has never failed to give uni
versal satisfaction to ber patrins. We say
this because wc speak what wc know to be
true.
Ihe (."artersville Male High School will
be under the ;o nt iostructit nos Mr. Rm
aUl Johnston, graduate of Edinburg Univer
versity. Scotland, and Rev. S. G. Hillyer,
jr„ a graduate of (v e believe,! Mercer Uni
versify, in our own State, bo.h of whom are
ripe scholars and efficient and experienced
teacoers.
These two high schools will be inferior to
none in the S'ufe us such, and are to be
opened and continued one term, to test the
sincerity ar.d earnestness o our poeplc a*
to their desires to build up and foster insti
tutions of learning in our very midst. If
both schools are liberal y patronized, (as we
hope and b< here they will be,) during the
coming session, :hen ihc principal* of both
will take further ?t pc to put them upon a
firm end permanent bards, otherwise they
will bo abandoned and the project given up
as afa lure. Surely the friends of educa
tion in and around I'artersville, will never
suffer su h tia' hers as the above to &han ton
so laudable and praiseworthy an enterprise,
in our growing and prosperous town.tos-ek
a Letter field m other quarter*. Let these
gentlemen te sustained, not < nly ly a liber
al patronage, but by materia! aid. and the
iliy is not and stant when ourchildnn will
bless us lor the act and enshi juc our memo
ry forever in their afl ctions.
Mrs. Betiie Rogers and Miss Myra Wi’kes
will b t'i open rooms convenient to the Fe
male School, where they propose to tci ch
music to students, and others, desiring to
take lessons.
The Female It chool will open in the Acad

Male School in the house near the Baptist
Church, occupied last ecsb on by Mr. John

Homicide. —About seren minutes to

ger of the House, and Maleomb Clai-

j Burke county. Bentley fired some
i four shots at Clalborn, who was un

the left nipple, causing death in about
tifteeu mumtes. The other shot miss
ed—one striking the wall near the
stair-way leading up to the Supreme
Court room, and another in the lobby
room of the Senate. We learn that it
grew out of remarks used by Cl.tihom

Mjr. Editor— l visited your county
a short time back, in search of health,
and I arn glad to say, I returned home
feeiing much* improved. I boarded a
short time with Mr. R. L. Rogers, three
miles above C'artersviile, and I take
this method of returning to him, and
his most estimable lady, my heart-felt
thanks, for the very kind and hospita
ble treatmt nt they gave me. He lives
in a beautiful vailev, having fine lauds,
good water and a healthy climate; and
better still, he is surrounded by a high
minded, honorable set of men, and la
dies, too.
There are three, (and perhaps more,)
widowed ladies living near him, who
lost their husbands in the unhappy
war which has just swept over our un
happy country. They are high-toned,
intelligent and industrious ladies, and
ought, aud no doubt do, secure the
sympathy and respect of ull good and
true men. May God shield and de
fend. council and protect all such la
dies; may Ke so direct them that they
tuay raise up their little ones iu the
fear and admonition of the Lord; may
their children bo bright jewels here on
earth, and shinging angels in Heaven.
I would like to speak of tue rapid
growth of Cartersviile, and of its eu
terfnizing people—the great spirit of
education, of agriculture, &e., bu;
-knowing that Editors like short letters,
close by saying that t may notice these
