Earle leaves this city for Savannah via Macon this morning. His visit here, though not, perhaps, marked by the success that has at tended his ministry in other cities, has been vary meeessfirl. On Sunday afternoon and evening he preached in the First Baptist Church. In the afternoon he preached a most impressive sermon on ■'The Unpardonable Sin," taking for his text the 32d verse of the 13th chapter of Matthew. For considerably over an hour he kept an immense audience spell-bound, and many a manly cheek was wet with unwonted moisture called forth by the earnestness and pathos of tho speaker. The unpardonable sin was, in his opinion, a per aistent rejection of the grace of God, and might be committed by those who, to all ap pearance, were consistent church members, who in their hearts rejected Christ In the evening the subject was The Marriage of Re becca and Isaac as Negotiated by the Servant of Abraham. Abraham, he said, was typical of God, Isaac of Jesus Christ and the servant of Abraham of the minister of the Gospel. In the midst of his discourse a fire alarm was rung which temporarily scattered a portion of the audience. Mr. Earle was obviously much fa tigued by his labors, yet preached eloquently, touching tho hearts of his hearers. The ser vices in the Second Baptist Church yesterday afternoon and evening eloeed Mr. Earle's labor in Atlanta. Asdbiss to WoaxiiraxzN.—Mr. Jonathan Horcross delivered an address to an-intelligent andienoo of workingmen in the Representative Hall, on Saturday evening. Tho address was well listened to, and abounded with just such suggestions as could emanate alone from a practical mind. The points argument made by Mr. Norcross we understood to be these: First, that there is a conflict between laboring men and capitalists, and that laboring men have the right and power to redress the wrongs and oppression cast upon them by capitalists. Second, that the firet and chief means by which capitalists become op pressors of laboring men is throngh the use of virions and pernicious credits, and tho dishon esty and corruption these engender; and that the only true grounds of credit and trust are charity or benevolence and actual necessity, and that as virions and pernicious credits are re stricted, the surplus capital of the country will he employed in productive enteprises, and to the assistance of productive labor. Third, that all credits employed in traffic, in credits or in mere representatives of capital, such as bands, stocks and notes, including gold and currency, odd nothing to the production or wealth of the country, or to the assistance of productive labor, and that all ‘'bulling" and “bearing," so called, which keeps (he finances of the country in a constant uproar, and are the means by which productive industry is con stantly plundered, and n few capitalists gather into their hands vast amounts of wealth, to be employed over and over in the same manner, ore effected entirely by a vicious and pernicious use of credits. Fourth, the laboring men are the true parties to strike at these virions and plundering credits, and that to effect a reform, laws mast be directed against the creditor os well oe the debtor and the exemption laws. Homestead laws, and the bankrupt Jaws, are measures invoked by the victims of vicious credits, as well os the general interests of socie ty, and shonid be sustained by laboring men. These were the leading points of the argument There were others made on labor, money, its use, etc. There woe nothing to array laborers against employer*.

Fran at Pchbzhtok, Taylor ACo/sDsco Stoee.—Lost evening, shortly after nine o’clock, an alarm of fixe was sounded, and proved to proceed from the above drag store. The engines were most fortunately prompt in attendance, Tallulah leading the van, No 1 be ing second, No. 2 and the Hook and Ladder company following closely. Considering the inflammable nature of the stock,it wa sthe won der of all that the entire building was not consumed. This was owing to the courageous conduct of the firemen, who did not scrapie to peril (heir lives while introducing hose into the basement, where the fire, from some inex plicable cause, broke out So rapid was the progress of the flames for awhile, that almost the first intimation the employees in the upper floor hod of the fire was the arrival of Tallulah on the scene.

Memorial Dav. -In spite of tho very threat ening aspect of the weather, a very large crowd assembled at the cemetery yesterday to participate in or witness the ceremony of decorating the graves of the Confederate sol dier*. As nearly as could be estimated, there were about two thousand peoplo upon the ground, two-thirds of whom were ladies. Ail brought offerings of flowers and evergreens; and though early in the season the display was a very good one. Wreaths hnng upon many of the headboards, crosses were reared in various portions of the cemetery and laid upon very many of the graves. The ceremonies were very simple. They were opened with an eloquent and fervent* ad dress to tho Throne of Grace by Rev. J. T. Lcftwitcb, Pastor of the Central Presbyterian Chnrch ; after which General John B. Gordon introduced CoL E. F. Rage, who delivered the address for the occasion. The address was ably and carefully prepared, abonnded in beau tiful thought, and was delivered in a manner becoming the occasion. It was listened to throughout without nny demonstration of ap proval thither than a most attentive audience which is the best compliment that can be paid to a speaker. At the close of the address the ladies scat tered about among the graves and soon had the greater portion of them decorated. By six o'clock the ceremony was ended and oil re tired, feeling that the day had been a solemn one and the ceremony heantifuL SLID. Badger, H. C. Holcombe. Mr. Hheibly, M- H. Bently, and C. B.

Dclanoy, the conductor of the excursion train which met with a serious accident on the Maoon and Brunswick Rail road on Friday last, we have received the fol lowing authentic account: The locomotive Decatur, driven by Mr. P. Igo, with three box and three passenger cars attached, left Quit- man oi 2 o’clock, for Brunswick, on an excur sion trip, stopping at the following places along the line of the rood and taking on board additional excursionists; Valdosta, Stockton, Hornersvillc, Blacluhcar, The train reached Brunswick about ten o’clock on Friday morn ing, when the excursionists disembarked from the train, a portion of them proceeding on board the steamer Water Lily on on excursion trip to St Simons Island, the remain tier of the party remaining in the city. After spending about seven hours in Brunswick, the Water Lily having returned, the excursionists, num bering over three hundred and fifty persons, ntobL Johnson, Chas. Sherer, J. W. Boraej? •('te^abarked on board the train on their way hotneward. About 6 o’clock, r. m., the train moved off and proceeded about fourteen miles frqjn Brunswick, when a serious accident oc curred. At this point there is a swamp, and as there was no dirt at hand when the road was built with which to form a solid road bed, straight logs without any fastening were put down, forming what is termed in railroad par lance “cribbing,” and ties secured across them upon which the iron was placed, necessitating a a)ow rate of speed to insure safety in cross ing it Tho engineer of the train not being accustomed to that rente, was not aware of his proximity to this swamp, therefore unable to check his engine in time whila crossing the cribbing*; consequently the rapid rate of the train caused a movement of the logs in the soft mud, which threw the train off, ora portion of it, causing the following casualties: C. W. £i}QwV*t of Blackshca, killed. John Parker, of Quitman, killed. Handy Winns, child, colored, from Quit- man, killed. Hasty Winn, colored, from Quitman, serious ly injured. Monroe Greiner, colored, from Quitman, seriously injured. A. Greiner, colored, from Quitman, serious Iy injur*!/ Ben. Hilliard, colored, from Quitman, seriouly injured. Celia Fry, colored, from Quitman, seriously injured. William Baker, train hand, right leg broken below the knee. In addition, several of the party were seri ously bruised but not seriously injured. The scene, upon the occurrence of the disaster, is represented by those who 'were on board the train, as truly horrifying—mothers looking for children, and vice versa, whilst the screams of those on the train, thrown into one con fused mass, resounded throughout the adjacent woods. Immediately after the accident, those who managed to escape uninjured, went to work with a will to rescue those who were un able to extricate themselves from the cars, and to care for the dead and wounded, large fire was built in the woods, around which the injured were placed, and every necessary attention paid them, a physician, from Quit- man. who accompanied the excursionists, ren dering all the possible medical aid in his pow er. The party remained in the woods around tho fires until the arrival of the passenger train from Macon, which being unable to pro ceed toils destination, the entire party, togeth er with the dead and wounded, were placed on board and carried to No. G, Jesup’s station, where every possible comfort was provided for those uninjured, and additional assistance and necessaries obtained for the injured. The en tire party remained at Jesup until half-past 10 o’clock yesterday morning, when a special train arrived from Savannah and carried them to their respective homes, the dead being taken in charge by their friends. The damage to the train was not so great as at first expected, the tracks constituting the principal part of the breakage. The cribbing is from two hundred and fifty to three hundred feet in length, and about two feet in height, which accounts for the miraculous escape of the entire party from being either killed or maimed. Two of the passenger cars had both ends stove in, whilst the third remained unin jured, having only slightly careened from the track. One of the box cars is a complete wreck, and the other two are badly damaged. The locomotive which conveyed the excur sionists arrived about half-past 8 o’clock last evening. Speaking of the Air-lino Railroad the Gains- ville Eagle says: “We are also able to an nounce this week, from personal observation, that the work of construction on this road is progressing in the most satisfactory manner. The track on tho first section is being laid at the rate of a half a mile a day, and it is ex pected that the train will run to Norcross by to-morrow. When this is done, the whole force will be placed on tho second section, and we are assured that tho work will be pros ecuted with the greatest energy. The con struction of the road from this point to Char lotte, North Carolina, has recently been let to P. P. Dickson & Co., of New York, who have bound themselves to construct and put in complete running order this part of the road by May, 1872. Wo are informed that this company has ample means and will promptly fulfill their contract. This places the early completion of this great enterprise beyond a doubt, and it will bo gratifying news to our readers. A destructive fire occurred at Selma, Ala., on Tuesday night last, burning the depot of the Selma, Rome and Dalton Railroad, and in juring other property in the neighborhood. The total loss is estimated at $ Go,000. The railroad company was partially if not fully in sured. A telegram was received in Charleston from Pocotaligo Wednesday, giving the news that the first locomotive for the Port Royal Rail road hod arrived, via Savannah. GEORGIA LEGISLATURE. SENATE. Monday, April 25. The Senate met at 12 m., to-day, and was called to order by the Hon. B. CONLEY. After prayer by the Bev. Wesley Prettyman. The roll was called by the Secretary J. G. W. Mills, Esq., and the journal read by Mr. Bishop. Mr. BROCK moved the following resolu tion: Whereas, doubts are entertained by different members of the General Assembly as to what laws can be legally passed and as to what powers we have as a legislative body, Resolved by the Senate and House of Rep resentatives that the President of the Senate appoint a committee of three on the-part of the Senate to join such committee as the House may appoint whose dnty it shall be to wait on Brevet Major General Terry, Com manding Third Military District, and learn of him what in his judgment are the powers and what legislation he will recognize os legal. In support of the resolution, Mr. BROCK said that it would open up the whole question, whether they were a Legislative Body or not In bis opinion they were, and could legislate npou such affairs as did not conflict with the General Government If it was necessary to have the approval of the Military Commander of the District his resolution would meet that He thought that Gen. Terry would approve all action that related to the StAte alone. Terri tories had legisted for* themselves before their admission as States, and sorely they could do so. Various State Institutions needed legisla tion. The Committee shonid be appointed to examine into the management of the State Rood. Another should be appointed to ex amine] the accounts of the State Treasurer. They should legislate upon a General School system; they had appropriated money for the purpose and had, as yet, received no benefit from it. The Governor, in his Message, had told them they could legislate. If Gen. Ter ry thought they could not, then they could go home. Mr. HARRIS was not exactly satisfied with the resolution of Mr. Brock, and offered the following as a substitute - Resolved, That a joint, committee of three from the Senate and five from the House be appointed to wait on his Excellency Provision al Governor Bullock, and a^fter consultation with him, report the proper sparse for this General Assembly to pursue under the circum stances which now surrotmd u£ He was not pleased with Mr. Brock's resolu tion, because he was not satisfied that it would be proper for them to communicate with Gen. Terry. The Governor would give them no in structions unless they were endorsed by Gen. Terry, Mr, Brock thought they could go on and legislate even so they would have the views of the Governor upon the situation. There was a small difference between them, but he thought his the more proper course. Mr. NUNN ALLY approved Mr. Harris’ res olution, provided that the word provisional” be stricken out. He contended that the Leg islature was not provisional and that the Gov ernor could not be provisional. If he was, who appointed him; where was the order or author ity by which he so signed himself A Provis ional Governor could not be elected, and must be appointed. He moved the following as a substitute for the resolutions previously of fered. Resolved, That a Committee of two on the part of the Senate, to unite with such members of a like committee on the part of the House, to wait on His Excellency the Governor, and inform him that both Houses have met accord ing to the time appointed and are ready to pro-' ceed to business. Mr. HIGBEE read extracts from acts of Congress to prove that the Government of Georgia was provisional, hence the Governor as a portion of the Government of the State, must ftl$Q be provisional. He thought it be came them to wait until notified by their su periors that they could proceed to legislate. Mr. BRADLEY supported the motion of Mr. Nunnally. He argued for legislation, and said that the reason Georgia had not been ad mitted was because she trad not done enough, had not passed a jury, militia and school bill. He proceeded to make personal remarks about the Governor, and was called to order. Mr. BROCK accepted the resolution of Mr. Harris upon his adding to it “and through him (the Governor) with General Terry.” Mr. CAMPBELL supported the resolution as amended by Mr, Harris. Mr. HUNGERFORD, amid much interrup tion from questions, spoke in favor of Mr. Harris’ resolution. He hoped Mr. Nunnally would withdraw his resolution and spake it a unanimous ypte, Mr. HOLCOMBE moved to strike out the word “prorisionaT from the resolution. His argument followed the same line as Mr. Nun nally, that the Governor was not a provisional Governor. He thought there was an object sought to be gained by getting the Senate to recognize him as the Provisional Governor. Mr. CANDLER supported the resolution of Mr. Nunnally. He did not know any. prece dent for such a committee as proposed by 'Mr. Harris. In a warm address he stated his views on the provisional government of the State, maintaining that since the sessiop. of 1868, and particularly since the ratification of of the 15th amendment, the government has ceased to be provisional, though Congress now contemplated making it so. Mr. HIGBEE moved the previous question. Carried. Mr. HOLCOMBE’S resolution was lost. Mr. NUNN ALLY’S resolution was lost by 18 to 15. The following is the vote: Yeas—Messrs. Bradley, Barns, Candler, Fain, Griffin 6th, Griffin 21st, Holcomb, Mat thews, Merrill, McWhorter, Nunnally, Smith 7th, Smith 36th, Traywiek, and Wellborn^-15. Nays—Messrs. Bowers, Brock, Campbell, Coleman, Corbit, Crayton, Dickey, Dunning, Harris, Henderson, HIgbee, Hangerford, Jones, Richardson, Sherman, Stringer, Wallace and Welch—18. Mr. Hams* resolution was then carriedi A message was received from the House throngh their Clerk, Mr. Newton, stating that they had passed a resolution similar to the ori ginal resolution of Mr. Harris in the Senate. Mr. MERRELL moved it be token up. Car ried. Mr. COLEMAN moved to concur. Mr. BRADLEY, on the motion to concur, took another opportunity to let fly another vituperative speech against Gov. Bullock. He proceeded to such a length that the President after repeatedly calling him to order, compelled him to take his seat Mr. HYLLYER moved the previous question. Carried. Mr. CANDLER appealed from the decision of the Chair in forcing Mr. Bradley to take his seat The PRESIDENT ruled him out of order, the matter then before the House being the pre vious question. Mr. Coleman’s motion to concur was carried on devision by 25 yeas to 7 nays. Messrs. Harris, Nunnally and Brock were appointed a Committee on behalf of the Senate. The Senate then adjourned on motion until 12 o’clock noon, Wednesday. HOUSE. Monday, April 2a House met pursuant to adjournment, and was called to order by the Speaker at 12 o’clock m. Proceedings were opened with prayer, by Rev. Mr. Crumley. The minutes of the last meeting having been read and approved, Mr. BRYANT, of Richmond, • moved that the House do now transact the business which the State greatly needs. Or if not, he was in favor of adjourning sine die, to await the action of Congress on the Georgia question. He wanted an investigation into the State Rood affairs, and into the charges preferred by tie Treasurer against the Governor. Mr. DARNELL, of Pickens, offered a reso lution to the effect that a committee of five life appointed, of three from the Senate and five from the House, to wait upon his Excellency Governor Bullock, for the purpose of ascer taining his views with regard to the procedure of business by the Legislature. Mr. PHILLIPS, of Echols, spoke at some length in favor of at once proceeding to bud* ness. Mr. PRICE, of Lumpkin, odered a resolu tion that a committee of three be appointed from the House to wait on the Governor and inform him that they are ready to proceed to business, and await a message from him. Mr. PRICE gave way for a moment to Mr. SCOTT, of Floyd, who raised an ob jection to further business by the House ac cording to the Constitution of Georgia, which provides that the Legislature shall not be in session more than forty days, and that it has already been in session for forty-seven days. The SPEAKER ruled that the House by its vote could extend their session. Mr. SCOTT, of Floyd, appeals from that decision. On the vote being put the decision of tho Speaker was sustained. Mr. PRICE resumed, contending that if Mr. Scott was going to call in the Constitution as the law to govern this body, then the gentle man from Floyd should not have drawn as much pay as he did, as the House met before the day appointed by the Constitution. Mr. LEE of Newton, offered a resolution us a substitute for the whole to the effect that the Legislature do adjourn sine die subject to the call of the Governor, and that the military commander General Terry draw up on appro priation bill and pay this Legislature. Mr. PRICE resumed, and stated that it was a scandal to the State that they should now adjourn before anything had been done. He would exhaust every cent in the treasury in establishing the free common school system throughout the State. He affirmed that if they could not be called together by the Gov ernor if they should adjourn sine die unless the Governor was specially empowered by Congress. He urged the members not to al low any quibbles offered by some of the mem bers to influence them in the vote abont to be taken. Mr. TWEEDY, of Richmond, said that as for “conscieuc,” spoken of by the member from Floyd, he considered the Republican side of the House had as much as the opposi tion, and they were not yet ready “ to perish by the way-side.” He moved to lay the reso lution of Mr. Price on the table, and called the previous question. Yeas and nays haying been called on the motion to lay Mr. Price’s motion on the table, the vote stood—yeas 5G, nays 53. Mr. MADDEN, of Burke, called the pre vious question on Mr. Darnell’s resolution. • Mr. TURRER, of Bibb, moved that he be al lowed to alter the phraseology of the reso lution. Lost The vote on Mr. Darnell’s joint resolution having been token stood, yeas 58, nays 52. Mr. VIRGIL HILL YER moved that the committee be appointed. The SPEAKER then appointed Messrs. Darnell, Price, Bell, of Banks; Lee, of New ton; and Harrison of Hancock On motion Messrs. Lastinger, Tumlin and Williams, of Morgan, were granted leave of absence. Mr. CHAS. O. JOHNSON, of Spalding, moved that the House adjourn until 12 o’clock Wednesday, 27th instant. Carried. The House adjourned accordingly. The Cessna Georgia.

The Legislature of Georgia. From tlie Washington Chronicle, 18th.] In the coarse of tho discussion in tho Sen ate the other day upon the bill for the admis sion of Georgia a slur was cast upon tho char acter of tho present Legislature of Georgia— that its personnel was not credible, and, there fore, a new election should be provided for be fore tho expiration of the proper term of the present members. As the present Legislature is controlled by Republicans, this slur becomes an unjust re flection upon the character of the men who, in Georgia, are the friends of the Administra tion and of Congress. This kind of personal vilification has been one of the most effective weapons with which the rebels have sought to destroy the Union party in the South. No matter what may have been a gentleman’s standing and character be fore, if now he espouses the cause of equal rights, the ragged chivalry open their tirade of social slander npon him. But we certainly did not expect that the authors of the very u measures, in the support of which onr politi- tho Constitution os' 681 fncndB in South, ond perhaps espe- cially in Georgia, have brought upon them selves this shower of rebel odium, would now unite with the Northern echoes of Southern treason in decrying the men upon whom the Republican party Las confidently and success fully relied for tho establishment of those measures.

JL taral Society having become vacant by the resigna tion of the late incumbent, I hereby, by virtue of the power invested in me, aa tho President of the Society, issue this notice, that on WEDNESDAY, the 22d June next,- an election will be held in this city, to fill the va cancy. All members, aa well as those who may beoome members by the payment of two dollars for the card which entitles them to all the privileges of Membership, for tho year 1870, and to access to the Fair Grounds, anil-the privilege of exhibiting articles for premium, without further charge, will be entitled to vote. Mem bers who live at a distance can vote by proxy or by en dorsing their ballots to the President. Tho order, and mode, and place of holding tho election, will be pub- lishedin the newspapers of the city, on the morning of the election. Persons wishing to become candidates must make it known iq such time and manner as they deem proper. The-President s member of the Georgia Legislature thus as sailed, but let us look at the body itself and some of its acts. In the Senate of forty-four members, and a House of one hundred and seventy-five, there are in the Senate four colored members; the other forty are white men, all of whom, with two exceptions, are natives of the South, or men who have lived in the State for years be fore and daring the rebellion. This body elected as its presiding officer Mr. Benjamin Conley, of Augusta, an ex emplary, upright Christian gentleman, for many years largely engaged in the wholesale shoe and leather trade, railroad president, bonk director, mayor of the city, and senior warden of St Paul’s Episcopal Church. No man can say anght against him personally. Politically he was a consistent Union man daring the war, and is a Radical Republican now. For this he is denounced as a “scal awag.” The President pro ienu, Hon. John Harris, of Newton county, is one of the most respect ed citizens of the State, has for many years represented his district, and is now, we be lieve, the Grand Master of the Masonic frater nity for tho State. He is, of course, a Repub lican. In the House there arc thirty-three colored members, the others are white men, and with but six exceptions all of them are natives of the South, or men who have lived there many years before and daring the rebellion. This body elected for its presiding officer Mr. Robert L. McWhorter, of Greene county, a gentleman who is a native of that State, the largest Land owner and planter in his county, and whose family connection probably own more land under cultivation than any other one family in the State. His public and private character stands equal to the best. As a Whig before the war repeatedly elected to rep resent his county and district, opposing seces sion until the outbreak of hostilities, he then entered the Confederate army as Major and fought the battles of the South until the sur render at Appomattox, and since the surren der has been an ardent friend of the re-united country, and an able supporter of Republican principles. Though for many years a leading member of the Baptist Church, he is now denounced by the rebels as a “scalawag” and “white nigger,” and can only live on his plantation because it is well known to the Ku Kluxes that his house is an arsenal and that his sons will shoot The Speaker pro tern., Hon. E. Tweedy, of Rich mond county, was Major of Cavalry in the Confederate army ; a man of high character and ample means, who lias retired from busi ness, and is a Radical Republican. And we ask, shall Republican Senators coun tenance the rebel slanders by which this class of men and those whom they represent are sought to be set aside and denied their rights ? After all the dangers, trials, and toils, through which the Union meu of Georgia have passed in supporting the Congressional policy of reconstruction, are they to be ignored and their wishes and advice disregarded ? After Congress has exercised its power and enabled the Union men of Georgia to over throw the Legislature of Georgia, which, in defiance of law, was organized in the interest of the rebels while Johnson was President, will it now exercise that power again to disband the Legislature which is now organized in ac cordance with the law and in the interests of the Union? Shall we now discard our friends because in supporting our measures they have become obnoxious (o our enemies? These are the practical questions involved in the matter now before the Senate; and the honest masses of Republicans desire them answered as the Union battles were fought—direct and positive—-for our friends and against oar foes. Legal hair-splitting will not excuse a failure. Application for Leave to Sell Land.

Infection in the Air.—Experimental chemists have repeatedly analyzed the air at unhealthy seasons in the hope of detecting the invisible virus which produces epidemic disease. They have not yet discovered it, and scarcely any two of them agree as to its nature. This is of little consequence. It is suffi cient to know that this poisonous principle exists, and that a safeguard against its insidious influence has been provided. In the spring and early summer, when fever and ague, remittent fever, and other periodical diseases of that class are prevalent, it is only necessary to fortify the system with a course of Hostetter's Stom ach Bitters to escape them. If this precaution has been neglected, which it never ought to be in any district liable to such visitations, and if the paroxysms of malarious fever have actually commenced, they may always be checked and broken np by a course of that powerful vegetable tonic and alterative. Quinine was once considered the only specific for chills and fevers; but it is now generally admitted that this nauseous al kaloid is a dangerous medicine, and that its secondary effects are more to be dreaded than any form of inter mittent fever. It is simply a tremendous astringent It does not touch the disordered liver, or. regulate the bowels, or in any way Improve the condition of the animal fluids. Hostetter’s Bitters, on the other hand, addition to being a better and safer tonic than any preparation of quinine, has a balsamic effect upon the whole system. It is aperient and antibilious, as well as directly invigorating, and purifies the secretions as well as regulates the secretive organs. It stimulates the appetite, strengthens the stomach, soothes the nerves, promotes healthful perspiration, and induuccs quiet sleep. As a stomachic it has no rival. Cases of indigestion that no other tonic seems capable of alle viating, are cored in a few weeks by its regular nse. aplldawlw John L.

Collector 4th District. to obviate the expense and in- s and the necessity of holding this election at a season so important to planters, by addressing a letter to those gendemeu who were sup posed to be legal members of the Society—giving them the names oftho gentlemen who were candidates, and asking them to communicate to him by loticr their choice, intending, when all the votes were received, to open them in the presence of Mr. E. C. Rawson, the resident member of the Executive Committee, and the Assistant Secretary, and announce the result. When the time had nearly arrived when these votes were to be opened and countod, a communication was received from a number of gentlemen,'who, perhaps, had been members for a previous year, but who were not rnitted to vote by paying now the $2 fee, they would con test the election as illegal, and resist the payment of the salary of any Secretary elected without their votes heing coanted, as illegal. Feuding tha time between the determination to hold the election in the manner first proposed and the counting ont of the votes, many gentlemen had called on me to know if persons who paid now and became members ooold vote in thiaelcc- tion. I decided, end so th*m t that it was not lawful or right for persons, after the polls wore opened and the election in progress, who wero heretofore so indifferent to the interests of the Society, as not to be come members, now, in the eleventh hour, to take ad vantage of locality and proximity to the scene, and come in, and. by means and numbers, carry an im portant election over the heads of those few legal mem bers who, merely throngh motives of purs and unself ish interest in the canae of Agriculture, renswad their membership, and thus gave their nemos and means to the society. This ruling was in accordance with the plain law of the Society. I have not modified it, that the payment of $25 created a family life membership; $10 an individual life membership, and $3 membership for the year only in which it was made, the year expir ing with the dose of tho first Annnal Fair thereafter. I am conscious of rectitude and no personal interest in this matter. Ever anxiona in my administration of the business of the Society, to be legal and just, and to views of the gentlemen whose interest in behalf of of the candidates induced them to make the protest referred to, though in justice to the motives of the gen tlemen referred to, I must express my belief that they In adopting the coarse now laid down in this notice, I hope all objections will be obviated, and am assured it will add largely to the membership aa well as to the revenue of the Society. The thanks of the Society are due, and hereby ten dered to the press of the State, for their liberality in giving publicity and circulation to the cards and no tices of tbo Society, and the favor is asked of the publication of this notice in all the papers of the State, it being one of the most important it lias ever issued. Cards of membership will be sent to all editors and publishers who will publish this notice and send a copy of the paper containing the notice to the Secretary’s office. Cards of membership will be furnished each member of tho Executive Committee from whom they may be obtained by persons wishing to become members by the payment of $2. The Secretary will furnish those cards to such per sons as may apply directly, by letter or otherwise, to him for them. BEN. C.
