The Legislator*.
We bn nothing of i oaportanoe to re
port m moet of the time sinoe last pa
per has been devoted to seeding
bills. There are now over throe hundred
bills upon the files and before the various
together until they finish the calen
der, Christmas will find them still in ses
sion. Yesterday was the regular day for
the House to act upon the prolongation
schema A t this writing waare not in
formed of the action. From indications
vre aavr, on Monday, we are inclined to be
lievethat prolongation will paw, and it
win be the fault of Democrats if it does
Bat they will be spotted, and terrible
will be the retribution that awaits
them. Should the honeet men of the
conoern suoceed in getting another
postponement, we shall feel confident
of snooess; otherwise we expect a three
days’ debate on it, and then its final
passage The pressure being brought
to bear is tremendous! The number
of Bailroads and other enterprises be
fore the Legislature offers extra tempt
ations to members, and a large and
clamoibus lobby are continually at
work, offering and threatening all man
ner of things. The amount of corrup
tion and villanynow afloat in and about
Atlanta is beyond estimate; and the
stench thereof assendeth unto heaven
and pervadeth the entire circumjacent
earth.
The War.
This subject continues to engross s
groat portion of the public interest,
and will continue to do so. So far,
Fortune seems to universally perch
upon the Prussian Banners, and it does
seem as though Napoleon was in a
desperate condition. According to ac
counts, his army has not only sustain
ed a serious defeat, but is much de
moralized, while panio prevails among
some of the people, and the Emperor
is treated with opon disrespect, his ab
dication daily expected, and the Em
press preparing for precipitate flight.
A triumphant, and almost countless ar
my, within, about one hundred miles
of Paris, and clamoring to bo led on
to her gates; Paris in a state of seige,
and the Empire on tie last legs 1
All these things mnst be taken with
a large amount of allowance. We get
all oar news throngh the Associated
Press, a Northern Association, which
like the Northorn people, all sympa
thise with Prussia. The dispatches
are, therefore, all more or less colored,
in accordance with those prejudices.—
Astor the dispatches our only remaining
source of news is the English papers.
These, of course, are all for Prussia.—
Besides the overlasting rivalry between
England and France, Great Britain
now bos additional reasons for wishing
success to Prussia—the Crown Prince
of that realm having married Victoria’s
oldest daughter. Yet with all these
reasons why we should suspicion the
correctness of our war news, one fact
is apparent: The great sovereigns who
are at the head of their respective ar
mies, soom to tell lies to the world re
garding their successes and reverses.
When a fight does tako place, they
both tell a straight tale about it, which
course is in striking contrast with the
course pursued by the commanders in
our late war.
We do not believe one half that is
said or hinted relative to the desper
ate state of Napoleon’s fortunes. We
have no idoa that his army is at all
demoralized; and we would os soon
bet that Napoleon would bo in Berlin
in thirty days as that the Prussians
would reach Paris.
It is devoutly to be hoped that which
ever side beats, this terrible conflict
will be speedily ended; still we are in
clined to the opinion that the struggle
will he a protacted one.

Verily, Uncle Carey pineth for his

and Griffin loves them. In fact, Griffin
will bet her last “coupon” on the Alba

they are looking for another cargo of

Murder !—Last Thursday a negro
chased a young girl near Sugar Valley
on the Selma, Borne A Dalton Kail
road, as she was passing from a neigh

made her escape from the brute. Last
Saturday evening she was again pass

when the same negro attacked her and
shot her throngh the left breast, and
struck her over the head with the gun,
and it is supposed violated her person.

when she was found, but no hope is
entertained of her recoveiy. The ne

found, the slowest and most tedious

Fatal Shooting Affbay in Cuthbert

of a bloody tragedy. Mr. Joe Phelps,

parties commenced firing, bat Maddox
received the first wound—in the leg—

Agriculture.
Mr. R. P. Johnson, Vice-President
of the Spalding Agricultural Club,
made an able report at the last meet
ing of tho Clnb, showing crop pros
pects generall favorable, excepting up
land corn, and says the drowth of this
summer has shown most clearly the
great value of deep ploughing and sub
soiling.
Wo extract the following excellent
advice form the report and commend
it to tho consideration of onr fanning
friends.
Lot every planter who bos heretofore
strained his energies ard resources to
plant and cultivate the largest possible
acreage—begin on the first September,
divide all tho land he intends cultiva
ting or planting into most equal parts.
Sow down during the fall one of the di
visions in small grain, wheat, oats, rye,
&c. The other half divided equally
again, and prepare for corn in one
part, and tho other for cotton. Thus
you will have one half planted before
the holidays, and this half planted is
also laid by. It will now be appear
ant that tho remainder which is to be
worked, being much loss than before,
will require less labor, for having
three-fourths of the farm in grain,
there remains only one-fourth for cot
ton. Cotton culture and the necessary
expense to gather and market it are
the planter’s groat trouble. I assume
it to cost twice as much to make and
save a cotton crop as one of grain;
while I am not prepared to admit that
ooUon is donbly remunerative. This
policy will redneo the amount of man
ual labor, necessary to properly cnlti
vato the crop, consequently the num
ber of laborers in the country will be
more like a sufficiency, and deduce the
constant tendency to higher and more
exhorbitant wages. The necessary
amount of labor will be more easily
and reasonably obtained, and from the
very nature of the case, more efficient
My prediction is that if this or a kin
dred policy were adopted for the com
ing erop year, the result in financial
ease, abundance of provisions, and
general prosperity, would astonish ma
ny of the now incredulous. Cattle
kind, hogs and stock generally, would
rapidly increase, and the food question
would cease to be the great burden of
onr section —and although the number
of bales of cotton might not be so
great, yet its money valne in propor
tion would be far mofe remunerative
to producers.

Attorney General Akerman has ad
dressed a letter to certain Republicans
in Georgia, who have requested his
views on the subject of an election in
that State. He declines to give a con
struction of the act of Congress relat
ing to Georgia, bat on the assumed
ground that the question isfbr.tbe de
cision of the Legislature, he is in fa
vor of an election, and against the ex
tension of the terms of State officers.
In a party view, he thinks the Repub
lican party will be more hurt by pre
venting than by hotding the eleotiofi;
bat if it were otherwise, he wonld not
sacrifice principle to success. He de
sires every precaution against unfair
ness, and shotild the election be un
fair, wonld have it set aside.

THE WAB.
Paris, Aug. 9. —There is an immense
uprising of the people of Franco to
repel the Prussian invasion. It is said
officially that two millions men are roa
dy to march, and that the reserve corps
will nnmbor one million. The people
are clamorous for organization and
leaders.

The Empress Eugenio, according to

Tho Times ascribes tho French dis
aster to the Emperor’s obstinacy in

The Times says parties in France
will make the Emperor pay the penal
ty of ill-success.
His name is already ignored in acts
by which tho regency seeks to rally
thepoople.
Things arrange themselves as if he
was not expected to resume his power,
as if testing how he may be dispensed
with altogether. The only question
is, who shall first utter the word “ab
dication ?”
Edmund Abount writes from the
field bitterly condemning the Emper
or’s mismanagement, he says, having
declared war ho let the Prussians be
gin it. It is true that neither party
was ready to act, the French lost twen
ty days in marching and countermarch
ing. They were surprised at Weiser
burg by the enemy when thoro were
no videttes to watch, no skirmishers to
meet, and no plan to repel.
A rumor has readied here that the
Prussians are in Mulhausser, 61 miles
southwest of Strasburg.
Berlin, Aug. 9. —The losses of the
French in the battle of Woerth, on

two large railway trains with stores

London, Aug. 10.—The Prince Im-

Emperor’s confidential agent Smith
also brought with him the Empress
Eugenie’s jewels, and ths valuable and
famous diamonds of the Duke of
