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. Auun Widow* a!

Verily, Uncle Carey pineth for his widows; bat it’s no use; for these la dies have taste, and they love Griffin and Griffin loves them. In fact, Griffin will bet her last “coupon” on the Alba ny beauties.

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 bor’s houso to her own home. She made her escape from the brute. Last Saturday evening she was again pass ing from home to a neighbor’s house, 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. Tho young lady was not quite dead when she was found, but no hope is entertained of her recoveiy. The ne gro made his escape and is still at large. The country is being thor oughly searched for the fiend, and if found, the slowest and most tedious death should be meted out to him. — Rome Daily. George Washington Hancock has been arrested in Savannah charged with passing counterfeit money. Acquitted.— Mr. Francis Higginbo tham, a citizen of this county, was ar rested Borne months since, by a de tachment of 17.

Mr. Joe Phelps, son of the agent at Ward’s Station, S. W. R. R., assaulted Dr. Maddox, of Cuthbert, with pistol in hand Both parties commenced firing, bat Maddox received the first wound—in the leg— which caused him to fall. Rising upon his elbbw, and resting his pistol upon his left -am, ho continued to return Phelps’ fire™and succeeded in placing three or four leaden pellets in the vi tal places about the body of bis assail ant, Phelps, who fell and expired in stantly. From our information, the killing was in self-defense, and there fore justifiable.—Albany News. The workmen are now busy upon the fifth story of the “H. I. Kimball Hotel.” Tfukific Thunder Storm ! —On Mon day last a terrible storm visited Atlan ta, damaging several buildings, killing several bead of Btock, and instantly killing a young man in West Ena, nnmod Charles Strawn. 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. * It is said that dogs ore to be ex cluded from the Augusta Fair grounds. This is rather hard on the Radicals.— Monroe Advertiser. Aug. 10.—Bear Admi ral Splse succeeds Admiral Portar in command of the North Atlantic Fleet 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. Raleioh, Aug. 9.—Returns come in slowly. Enough is known to pnt the election of five Democratic Congress men heyond a doubt 82 State Sena tors ana 75 Representatives are elect ed by Democrats. A Deputy United States Marshal served on Kirk yesterday the writs of habeas corpus issned by Judge Brooks, to bring bis prisoners before him at Sanlsbury. Kirk replied that he wonld answer alter consulting Holden. Twelve machinists on the North Carolina Railroad, at Company Shops, Alamance county, were arrested yes terday by Bergen, Kirk’s Lieutenant Colonel. New York, Aug. 9.—Jefferson Davis arrived to-day from Baltimore, and is at tho New York Hotel, where he is the recipient of many attentions from Southern guests. He refuses to be in terviewed. 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. Great activity in enrolling of volun teers in all parts of the city. Thirty-three thousand workmen are strengthening the fortifications, assist ed by twenty thousand sailors from the navy. London, Aug. 9.— The Paris corres pondent of the Manchester Examiner, telegraphs that Italy and Austria each send 100,000 men to aid France. The Empress Eugenio, according to the Pall Mall Gazette, is preparing for flight. Tho Times ascribes tho French dis aster to the Emperor’s obstinacy in refusing sound military advice, and to his illness. 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 Saturday, were 6,000 dead, wounded and missing, and 6,000 prisoners.— McMahon’s baggage, many cannon and two large railway trains with stores and munitions were captured. The Prussian cavalry in their pursuit, bag ged 1,000 stragglers who had thrown away their arms. The total Prussian loss is 3,500 dead and wounded. London, Aug. 10.—The Prince Im- Serial of France has arrived in Lon on in charge of W. D. Smith, the Emperor’s confidential agent Smith also brought with him the Empress Eugenie’s jewels, and ths valuable and famous diamonds of the Duke of Brunswick. Meeting in Butts.
