GUNS TURNED ON LAREDO. Mexico Makes a Hostile Demonstration. Laredo, Aug. 7. —A detachment of 400 Mexican troops arrived in Nuevo Laredo, Mexico, last night. They are principally infantry and artillery and brought two cannon with them. They have placed the cannon so as to command Fort Mclntosh on the Texas side of the Rio Grande, and have been noticed tak ing observations from their position all day. Considerable indignation is ex pressed by Americans at the arrival of these troops, and this action on the part of the Mexicans does not augur well for a peaceful solution of the present diffi culty. cutting's sentence. El Paso, Tex., Aug. 7.—Cutting has been sentenced to one year’s imprison ment at hard labor and to pay a tine of SOOO. The sentence was pronounced on Cutting this evening. If he cannot Day the tine he will have to serve 100 days longer. Medina, who caused all the trouble, has leave to sue Cutting in a civil suit tor damages. The question of censuring American Consul Brigham and asking for his removal is referred to tire Supreme Court at Chihuahua. Cut ting will probably be hurried oft' to pris on at Chihuahua to-night. TIIR DANGER OF A CONFLICT. Paris, Aug. 7.—The Mexican Minis ter here mts sent a communication to the papeifc, in which he says that a con flict will not arise between Mexico and the United States in connection with the Cutting affair. He concludes with a statement that Mexico is perfectly tran quil. St. Louis, August B.—A dispatch from Rio Grande City, Texas, says a heavy force of Mexican revolutionists crossed the river into Texas Thursday night. A troop of the Eighth United States caval ry was ordered yesterdav from Ringgold barrack to pursue and disarm them. NO SIGNB OF WAR. Washington, August 10.—It is stated at the war and navy departments to-day that while the lighting branches of the government are in their customary con dition of readiness for action, offensive or defensive, the present difficulties witfc Mexico are as yet the exclusive concern of the diplomatic branch, and that i*> movements of troops or vessels have y*t been ordered with a view to a possible war. At the state department it is said that there is nothing new which it would be proper to make public at present, but that there is still no reason to doubt the amicable adjustment of the Cutting affair. It is unofficially learned that the correspondence now in progress is ex pected to bring about definite results in a few days and that the direct objects sought to be accomplished by this gov ernment are first the release of Cutting, and second a renunciation of the claim by Mexico of extra territorial jurisdic tion.

Whenever the people of Cartersville undertake anything success invariably crowns their efforts. The meeting of the agricultural convention has been no exception to the rule. Monday afternoon the delegates began to arrive. Immediately upon arrival they were taken charge of by competent committees who escorted them to the opera house where they were assigned homes during their presence here. Ihe bulk of the delegates arrived 1 uesday morning just in time to take part m the proceeding* of the convention. Cai tersville sustains her reputation for hos pitality and her praise is on everv dele crate’s lips. They are elated at the cor dial reception given them, and the peo ple of the town are happy and proud of their record. The convention is com posed of as fine a body of men as can be found in the whole universe. I heir de liberations were presided over with a great deal of dignity and decorum. Hon. L. F. Livingston, president of the association, called the convention to order at 10 o’clock a. m. After the blessing of Almighty God had been in voked by the Rev. F. M. Daniel, of Grit fin Mr. T. Warren Akin extended to the convention the freedom and hospitality of our Mountain City together with the “chickens of a thousand roosts. ms address was happily received. Dr. Win. If. Felton then, in behalf of the county of Bartow, extended the gat ings of the county, and welcomed the convention to our midst. In an address of half an hour he was frequently ap plauded, and his sound views and well timed compliments to the agricultural interests and people of Georgia and all the land, were well received on the part of the convention. Col. M. o- Hatcher was very happy and his allusion to large-hearted Tom Lyon eyoked con siderable laughter. . . Dr. P. 11. Mell, of the State University, Prest. Newman, of the Alabama Agri cultural Association. Dr. Jones, of the Georgia University, Col. Thos. C. How ard of Atlanta, and members of the Agricultural Clubs of Bartow, were then invited to seats on the tloor and partici pation in the action of the convention. President Livingston, in making his annual address, presented many things of interest to and affecting the prosperity of the state. His observation showed that there was unrest in the state, not only among farmers, but among men in all professions and callings in the state. Among farmers be pointed out the prop er means by whioh this dissatisfaction and unrest might be overcome; by edu cation —not education in schools and colleges alone, but education at home, education by the fireside, behind the plow, at the anvil, and in every depart ment of labor, and education to under stand the broad acres on wffiich we are raised. , Labor, he said, dignifies the man who follows it. The men who control the state and fill places of trust are the men who were not too lazy to work, and here he spared not the dude. Another cause of this dissatisfaction was the labor sys tem. lie deprecated labor strikers and thought that farmers should elect men to office who know and will protect the in terests of the farmer. ■ Extravagance was another source of evlland the raising of farmers’ wives and daughters to dress, and of the farmers to live beyond their means was to be look<*l after. Stop extravagance and you lift the mortgages resting on your lands. , Discriminations were another cause. All classes protect themselves except the faimer, and the time has come for the farmer to protect himself. Humanity can’t stand oppression. Let the farmers .of Georgia send men to the Legislature who will aid and look after their In , terests. He recommended the appointment of *exeeu ive committees to look after the State Agricultural CoromisSicn; to look after the Agricultural College at Athens; , to look after the school of Technology and to adopt some method or methods of preventing the washing of land ; a com mittee to look after the labor question ; a committee to look after the State Fair. An invitation was extended by the superintendent of the Western & Atlantic railroad to visit the ore banks located in this county and accepted by the conven tion. The roll call was then perfected, when the convention adjournad to meet at two and a half p. in. afternoon session. The regular order of business was de clared in order when the convention as sembled in the afternoon. Dr. A. Oemler was then called for and responded in a quite scientific discourse upon “Fertility of Soil and Fertilizing.” f Gen. Win. Phillips eloquently dis cussed the question, Does fanning pay in Georgia? If not, why not ? NIGHT SESSION. Bill Arp pleased the audience with what he knew about farming. ’’bill arp’s” speech. Farmers and friends we greet you; Carters ville gives you welcome; Bartow county waves her bonnet and says all bail! We are proud to greet the representatives of honest toil and sweat and patriotism; the mud sills of our best society; the friends of law and order. J ust a century ago there was a society formed in New York whose mission was to preserve the ■ liberty that had been won to cherish patriotism, industry aud friendship, and to establish the new government among the nations of the earth. Washington was its first President and Jeffer son and Adams and Franklin and Hamilton and the Pinkneys and LaFayette were among its members. It was christened “The Society of the Cincinnati,” and its succession was honored and invigorated by such names as *Vebstcr and Clay and Jackson and John Foreythe. This society had its branches in each of the thirteen states, but one by one these branches were dissolved until there were but live left. Georgia was the last of tie lost number and be queathod her fuuds to the Parent society in 1824. But Georgia has still the elements of that m her midst, and they are here to-day. It is no romance to say" that the Agricultural Society of the state embodies all the cardinal virtues that are requisite to secure her people in the blessings of life, liberty aud the pursuit of happiness. Then we welcome yon as the Society of the Ciu cinuati. Who was Ciueinuatxis? He was a farmer. He was a Roman consul—a man of great learning and great integrity. His n..me was Lucius Qutntius, bat from profusion of cyrly hair he was sir named Cinoinuatas, the Latiu word Cmcinnus, meaning curled or twisted. His name must not be confounded with that of the great Porkopolis of Ohio, for tradition says that the name of that city was originally spelled with two S’s instead of two C’a, and as tlie word ‘natus 1 means a birth, the full meaning of the name was “born to sin and sin again” as the sparks fly upward. Their modern pork merchants deny. this and assert with honorable pride that thoir city took its name from the carls and twists in the tails of their swine. I have never seen Mr. Cleveland’s Secretary of Interior, the honorable aud honored Lucius Quiutius Cineinnatus Lamar, but his wealth of waving hair clearly shows the origin of his name. The historian tells us that Cineinnatus became disgusted with the corruptions and intrigues of office-seekers and he resigned and retired to a little farm and livett a frugal aud secluded life. II larai 1 1 in lan area of four jugura, that is four acres or four times as much land as an ox team could plow in a day. This would seem a very email farm, but the old gentleman had no nig gers or mules to feed, no fine clothes to buy, no SODS to go to college, no girls to visit the springs with their big packing-truuks full of clothes. It is very different now, lor this is a progressive age and we must conform so as to keep in hail ing distance of respectability. It takes more jugura now and more stock—stock of all kmc s. In fact our most successful farmers have to have railroad stock or bank stock so that i he dividends may supplement the losses on the laim. If a farmer has no such stock, then he has but one remedy left and that is to work hard and live hard and never buy anything that he is oblige* to have. , It so happened that the Romans got into trouble with their enemies, and their impetuous consu marched forth to meet them and got entrappe* and surrounded in the Alban hills and couldn get out. The people were in great consternation and as a last resort sent out in the country for Cincißnatus E* come m and save tbe country. The old man was plowing an ox team, and had on nothing but his panrs and a tunic or over shirt. He would not go to the fence and meet the deputies in that oondition, but called his wife to bring him his toga. He was a true pa triot for lie weut to the city with the deputies and took command and closed all the store* ant saloons and conscripted every man that could light and every boy who carried a pistol in his pocket, and then marched forth by night am surrounded the enemy and made an awful noise beating drums and tin pans and blowing horns, and he attacked them hand to hand and routed them and took them all prisoners, lie got back to Rome in 24 hours from the time he left and then discharged his army without any writ of habeas corpus. He made a bow of thanks and went straight home to his wife and farm and was plowing or pulling fodder the next day just as though nothing had happened. That is the kind of a man was. Twenty-four years after this when he was 80 years old the Romans got into trouble again and sent for him, and he came and surnressed a terrible sedition and put the leader to death and restored peace aril tran quility in 21 days, and then returned to his farm and, I suppose, lived until he died. 110w r striking is the parallel. During the late war our farmers left the plow and hurried to tlio defence of their country, and when the war was over they laid aside the sword and took hold of the plow again. I see before me ir. any honora ble examples. If they were not called to lead they were eager to follow. If they did not re turn victorious they did what they could. Tis true that some few have left the field and followed office, but I reckon they were called to that. In fact I know they w ere, for ever and anon I see their cards in the papers saying: “In response to the urgent solicitations of numerous friends, I have consented, etc., etc. Sometimes >riien a patriot is suddenly called from his jugura where he was peacefully plow ing his bull, he never returns, and is kept fight ing the enemies of the republic. Gov. Brown is a notable example. For years after he was called he led the Democratic cohorts against the old line Whigs who under the lead of Toombs and Stephens and Beullill and Jo nkins were trying to surround the state and capture it. Old Joe whipped them but they would’nt stay w hipped, and so he had to keep on fighting. For thirty years he has been divorced from his jugura and I’m afraid will never be allowed to put the jugum on his oxen again. He has been gone so long that he has forgotten the difference bctw'een a bull-tongue and a twister. Cineinnatus waited to be called, but some of our farmer politicians are more eager to save the country, and say to the people: “Call me and I’ll come, and if you don’t call me soon I’ll come anyhow.” They are faithful to the trust and w illing to die in the last ditch. I never see one of them but what I think of Casabianca, Gentlemen of the convention, there are Knights of Honor and Knights of Pythias and Knights of Labor and Knights of Jericho and Knights of the Golden Cross and Knights of .'>alamanca, but you are the Knights of the order of Cineinnatus. You do not plow oxen nor wear your integuments outside, but your calling is the same, and your patriotism is equal to the emergency. You do not wear your hair in ambrosial curls, in fact some of us do not wear it at all, for we have worn it off in pastoral and domestic service, but doubtless Cineinnatus got rid of his in early life and that may account for his retirement. Bartow county has a peculiar claim to the honor which your presence gives her. She is the ranking county in the state in the value of her lands per acre as returned by the owners. She is tle ranking county in the number of bushels of wheat made. She is the richest in mineral wealth. She raises her own corn and bacon. She i> an enough to cat, such as it is, and it is good enough what there is of it. She will feed you well, if you do not stay too long, but you will have to take it dry so unless you have brought your wet rations with you. Added to this she boasts a galaxy of notable and distinguished cit izens. There is Sam Jones of a national reputation and Dr. Felton who still standeth on the watch tower, and Gen. Young, who is hobnobbing with the Russian bear, and Mattie Lee Price of mag netic fame. Andjjust to show what she could do when pressed Bartow has produced the only genuine reliable and original Tobe Jackson that is in the world. But these are not all by any means, and if I did not fear to shock the retiring modesty of two other gentlemen who are present 1 would mention among our notables, Col. Tom Lyon and—myself. Gentlemen we give you welcome. Mr. Carmichael, of Coweta, consumed his ten minutes allowed, with random remarks and some law on contracts, and had to be rapped down by the chair. Some discussion wes had on the subject of hill side ditching, many questions being propounded and answered. An “unknown pea” was highly recom mended by those familiar with it. It is grown in Hancock county. Adjournment. YVKDXESDAY’s PROCEEDINGS. The morning session was opened by an address, sound in views and sentiments by S. H. Bassett, Esq., of Fort Valley, Ga., on the question of labor and capitol. The main argument of the discourse being against the importation of foreign cheap labor. At the time of going to press (Wednes day noon) it was expected the conven tion would adjourn last night; the time being taken up in speech-making and election of new" officers. EXCURSION THIS MORNING . Governor Brown has placed at the disposal of the convention three coaches, and the body will excurt to the ore banks at Ironville this morning, the train starting at 8 o’clock. NOTES. Col. Capers got in to view the conven tion. Bartow county is a county of won ders. Maj. Livingston makes a most excel lent presiding officer. The absence of the usual gubernatorial candidates was noticeable. Col. John O. Waddell, of Polk, moves around among the yeomanry as if he was at home. “Bill Arp’s” speech was greatly en joyed and he received maDy congratula tions when he retired. Every Cartersvillian appointed himself a committee of one to see that the delegates had a good time. To the down-country folks, our moun tain scenery is a treat. Our beautiful landscapes are gresjt contrasts to the level wire-grass regions. A great many of the delegates ex pressed a wish to see our Sam Jones and some expressed disappointment in not viewing Tobe Jackson. The old reliable St. James, though crowded, was equal to the occasion. The heavy drafts on its hospitality were promptly met by Dr. McFerrin. The reception committee were untir ing in their efforts to see that all the delegates were properly cared for and it was through their efforts that great good was accomplish'd. They did their woik handsomely and deserve praise. Our farmers came in town in force Tuisday, to carry delegates home with them. There was no trouble in finding good homes for all. State Treasurer “Bob” Hardeman is in attendance upon the convention, and is very popular with the body. His name is prominently spoken of in connection with the presidency (f the association. Mr. John Triplett, the bachelor editor of the Thomasville Times, is smiling on the convention as well as our girls, Ar. Triplett conducts one of the best weeklies in the state and Thomasville’s success is largely due to his efforts. Capt. Tom Lyon is happy and is being given a full limit to enjoy himselt. lie knows ail the boys and is very popular with them. His lecture on “ragweed as a stock provender” was overlooked. Ihe Captain speaks from experience and what he says on the subject will be highly interesting. Mr. S. D. Brad well, of Ilinesville, the editor of two newspapers, principal of a flourishing school, vice-president of the Agricultural Convention, called on The Courant. Notwithstanding the raul plicity of his duties, he says he has time to go a’fishing occasionally. He is what you might call alive Georgia newspaper man. Capt. Robert E. Park, of Macon, is here. He talks Jersey cattle and tine stock generally. We knew the clever Captain in the long ago when lie was principal of the LaGrange High School, and all we have to sav is if he makes as good a tanner as he < H a teacher he is a powerful good one. When we think of the Captain we think of the fellow that got off’the joke about “snaring the rod and spoiling the child.” That’s the reason we say he was a good school teacher. The Captain is one of the fore most men in our state, one who will always be popular and esteemed, and one who it is well to know. • Bucklen’s Arnica Salve.

He Provides for His Kin and for Several Public Beneficiaries. New York, August 9.— The will of Samuel J. Tilden was read at Greystone this afternoon by James C. Carter, of this city, in the presence of all the rela tives except those in the West. Besides the family there were present the Hon. John Bigelow, Andrew 11. Green and Mr. Tilden’s private secretary, Geo. W. Smith. Hon. John Bigelow, Andrew 11. Green and Geo. w. Smith are named as executors and trustees. All of Mr. Tilden’s kindred are generously pro vided for in this way : Tiie whole estate is placed in the hands of the executors as trustees. Each heir is to receive an equal share in the line of his or her consanguinity. That is, nephews and neices equal amounts, and their children certain amounts; but they are to receive only the income de rived from an equal separate specific sum, the principal at their death to be disposed of in a manner which is not made public. None of his relatives ex cept Mrs. Mary B. Pelton, his sister, are given any specific bequest forever. To her he bequeaths the residence, No. 38 West Thirty-eighth street, and the sum of SIOO,OOO to live upon. All of his real estate, except this, is placed in his exec utors’ hands, to be disposed of as they see fit, either by sale, rental or exchange. Greystone and Gramerey Park property falling under the same rule. The executors are first charged with the duty of setting apart for his relatives sums named for them, from which the several incomeg are thus to be derived. This done, it becomes the duty of the executors and trustees to carry out his wishes regarding certain public bene ficiaries ; they are charged with the duty first, of establishing a free library in his native village, New Labanon, also in Yonkers, and if in the discretion of trus tees, they choose to establish a free library in this city, they may do so, and if not, they are at liberty to use the funds that the free library would cost in the promotion of any charitable or educa tional cause. A great deal is left to the discretion of the trustees. In general terms the relatives are handsomely taken care of by the receipt of specific incomes, which consume an amount not to exceed one-third of his estate. All the rest and residue is devo ted to public good, and the trustees are charged with the responsible duty of choosing such methods as shall prove of the greatest good to the public In the disposition of this property.

The excellent picture we present at the head of this column, is of a man who is as well and favorably known in his capacity as a traveling man or “drummer” as auy one man in the United States. Mr. Dunlap said in conversation recently: “About four years ago I had a severe attack of rheumatism, which completely disabled me for a time, and which developed into what is com monly called ‘chronic,’ attacking me when least expected, and laying me up entirely; in capacitating me for any kind of business, and causing me as much suffering in a day as should be crowded in a life time. After one of my most severe attacks, and when I had just got able to hobble around, I met J. M. Hunnicutt, an old friend, and he said he could make a remedy that would cure me, and, by gracious, he did. I took two bottles of his stuff, piepared from roots and herbs, and I have never had a twinge of rheumatism since. The medicine was not prepared for sale at that time, but was manu factured bv Mr. Hunnicutt for bis friends. About six months ago it was determined to place it upon the market, and a firm was organ ize* 1 for that purpose. Two "weeks ago, in the midst of my suffering, I noted in one of their advertisements that it was good for kidney troubles also. I knew it "would cure rheuma tism, and I bought a half a dozen bottles at once and determined to give it a fair show at a kidney disease of long standing. It may seem extrava gant, but the lirst day’s use gave me relief, and before I had completed taking one bottle my disagreeable symptons had entirely disap peared. I have used two bottles up to this time, and I have not felt a trace of my disease for a week.” J. M.
