will leave South west Georgia in a short
time for Savannah, toengage iu business
in that city. No man is more rcspectod

We called on ourlriend, Mr. Henry
Atkerson, Superintendent of the Man
ufacturing department at the machine
shop, and must acknowledge ourselves
surprised at the extensive display of
Agricultural Implements manufactured
nt this establishment —corn shelleis,
sugar mills, mi l fixtures, etc. Wo saw
one large spur wheel, cast in this shop,
24 feet in circumferejioe, for Cokers
mill at Amerieus. No such work done
at any other p'ace S uth. The manu
facturing of Agricultural Implements
is ccrtain ! y a now thing in Georgia
It would pay every one to visit this es
tablishment and see the extensive ar
rangements for doing arry sort of work
with neatness and dispatch.
Mr Atkerson, one of the best me
chanics in the South, is also an ntfuble
and accommodating guuleman, be
sides, it does a man good to sha ,e any
of these honest mechanics by the hand.
No drones in Mr Atkerson hive—
There are some unmanied men among
these gentlemen that any lady would
do well to capture —better than conn
ter-hoppers, pill-peddlers, petifogers,
or even—editors.

moral Ideas iu Texas.
We give below a section tbataenr

Constitution of Texas, by the Conven
tion now in session there. This is offer
ing a positive premium for bastardy,
and is in keeping tvkh vile legislation
of this party since they havo been iu pow
er. Much acta wonld turn pubiic opinion
against them, if the whole country was
as Radical ns Kentucky is Democratic:
Be it declared by the people of Texas,
in Convention assembled, that the fol

all purposes of law and laetj aud it
shall be the duty of the Legislature to
I*ss an act enabling such persons to in
herit the estates of their pareuts, and to
inforoe ill the obligations of in.ents to

Another case of moral legislation is
given in the Alabama Legislature. R
R Harris, a radical member, from
vj'ieeuslown county who was arrested
aud is to bo tried fur bigamy, has had
• hill passed through the Alabama Leg
islature relieving him from the puii.s

When she can do no for the heuetit of another : j
She should with propriety make the exchange, I
In order to leave them as before, good friends. ■
A well informed lady may adopt the above plan, I
lty receiving the attention of a nice young man;

Would you thluk her unjust by declaring “seces

A woman has the right to he pious if she can ;

We learn from the book', 'til enjoined npon man,
To get him a “hotter-half,” provided lie can.
He, therefore, commences to ascertain his fate,
Hut learns from experience, that he's a little too

He finds to Ilia eliagrin, that a rival is at hand,
He then withdraws his forces like a military man;
Although he is loth to relinquish the field,

Lui'jjis AS ass Meeting of Israel
iles in .Meniphis-Utfitoliillons
Uemiiineiiig Liaul Adopted.
A large ami enthusiastic meeting of
the I raelites of Memphis, vras he and in
the Hull of the Memphis Club, last
night, in response 1 1 a cn'l pu fished
in the cry papers. Every scat was
tilled, and many had to con’ent them
selves with standing room, in point
ot numbers, wealth and respectability,
it was the most influential meeting, ol
a religious or political caste, held in
this city tor some months. Ihe follow
ing resoluble ns wore adopted wo bout
u dissetiti.ig voice in this assemblage
of Jewish citizens cl' all political
s'ripes:
Whereas, U. S. Grant, General of
tho Uh ted States Army, did, in ii s
official capacity, issue, or caused to be
issued, an order kn wn as Genet.d Or
1 der No 11 da ed at Oxford, Miss,
j December 17, 1862—ami which order
is hereunto appended; and
Whereas, The said General Order
i No. 11 was un unjust and wanton li
I bel, not.upon individuals, but exptesa
! ly made to apply to the whole race of
| Israel, branding us fait-hies, d.shonesl
aud disloyal, and its purpose and effect
| wore to prosecute and proscribe those
to whom it was applied, on account of
their birth, which, with their religion,
is their only ciime ; and
Whereas, Tho said U- S. Grant is
now before tho country as a candidate
for the highe t office in the gilt cl the
American people; therefore,
Resolved, That we, the Israelites of
the city of Memphis, do believe that
the said U S. Grant has, by the said
order, shown himself to boa man unfit
for the high position to which he as
]>ires, and incapable of administering
* the laws 'o all classes with impartial
ly and without prejudice.
Resolved, That we, each ami every
one, individually and collectively, as
Isrealites, who have respect for our
honor and our religion, pride in our
race, and love for our country, do
pledge ourselves to use every hooowt
ble means in our power to defeat the
election of the said U. 8. Grant.
Resolved, That this meeting is not
called for any political or party pur
pose, but solely to defeat the man who
has, by his Order No. 11, insulted the
whole Jewi-h race.
Resolved, That we exhort and ad
monish our Irethren in this and all
other cities and towns in tho United
States, as they value religious liberty
and their rights, to do all in their
power to defeat the said U. S. Grant

Biwult is stated that the names sent
to tho Senate last week by Gov. Bul
lock, for confirmation to the Supreme
Court Judgeships, anti withdrawn ,
without being opened in Ibat body,
were those of Joseph E. Brown, Chief
Justice, and McKay and D A. Walk
er, Associates
It is further stated that the withdraw-"
al was made for a revision of the list,
and that it is now determined to pre
sent the name of Iliram Warner, the
present Chief Justice for the same po*
sition, and Joseph E. Brown, and I>. \
A-. Walker, for Associates.
President Screven, of the Atlantic
and Gulf railway, stM'ee that rt is the
inten ion of the company to extend the

as soon as tho necessary funds are pro
vided, but that it is not settled yot

Wisrr Florida Cotton. —The Mb |
riana Couriei, of July 80, gay*'“the
Measoßß until recently, have been pra
piciotis in this section fur tho cotton
plant, and it has attained n good size;
but the hiftr excessive rains have tend
ed to stimulate it too much, caused it.
to throw off its fruit and take a second
growth. The caterpillar, some plant
ers say, has already passed the second
hatching, and fears are entertained
should the seasons favor, the destruc
tion of the crop will be rapid and cer
tain. Last year, although appearing
about the same time, tho damage to
the crop was not uniform. Sumo crops
were benefltted, others but slightly af
fected, a very large prnpottion was ’en
tirely denuded, anti but little saved
from the field. Sunshine is now much
needed to develops the plant, with
cou’inued adapted seusons’to make a
full crap from the area of land.”
The Georgia Outrages. —We pul
lish elsewhere the eard of the nine Cos
lumbus prisoners who, after a 1 ng and
pi iaful iutprfi osrnent, amounting to po:,
itivc torture, and disgraceful in tht na
tional character—after the subordina
tiio* of witnesses to swear away their
lives, and a trial by a military commis
sion, which showed that this prosecu
tion was simply a malignant and mur
dc-ous prosecution—have at last been
released. We entreat every free citizen
of America, and every fur-minded man
of whatever party, to read this recital,
and to remember that this infamy i*
the fruit of a government set up by the
Radical lead-rs, and which, if they had
(he power, they would extend to the
whole country. To elect Gen Grant is
to perpetuate these men in power, and
stamp their t\ranv permanently upon
the country. This is the price we are
called upon to pay for the elevation of
oDe utterly ignorant and unskilled in
civil affair. —National Intelligeucer.
Orville Grant, a respectable merchant
of Chicago, and brother of Gen. Grant,
recently gave a check of 111,000 to a
Democratic Club of that city. In con
si quencc of ihe habits of big brother,
the now General, be has not, for a loßg
tim”, been on very familiar terms with
him, and will not vote for him, deeming
him utterly unfit for tbc office to which
the negro party have nominated him.
Another “Traitor.’—The Watrick
Herald is greatly di-gusled because Mr.
(J. D. Robertson, hitherto a strong Ite
pudlican, has renounced that party, and
and made a tpiec.h at a Seymour ratifi
cation meeting in Boonvillc a few days
since. It cal’s him a “traitor,’’“ren
egade,” &o.
George Wilburns, a lad aged ten
years, while swieging on tho bumper
of a freight car on the Macon & Wes
tern Road, nt Atlanta, on Friday, fell
under the cur and was horribly man
gled. llis right thigh was mat-bed ’ll
dose to tits body, his right foot cut in
two, his left ieg severed below the
ItDee, and bis right armeut off.
Saturday last, tho members
of the Legislature each received two
hundred and fifty dollars for their ser
vices, and, in consequence, are said to
be in excoe .ing good humor,
appointees took charge
c.f the State Road on Monday. E. Hul

Express appointed Superintendent.—
E. J?. Walker, late Superintent Macon

that other changes will probably fol

Mr. J. S. Schofield.\ Macon r Georgia ;
Fir — The Cotton Press I boug .t of you last fall, works well ; and I am very \£elj picas
ed with it. 1 packed wiih it about one hundred bales of Catton. | [ consider the Press su
derior to all others for packing cotton, as ft can be worked with less labor, and will pack as
heavy bales as aov farmer wants. Wood Screws and /Vess for baling cotton must surely
give way and place to your Iron Screws. Ail I regret, is, that I did not get an Iron frame
from you, Complete. l ours rearecfully, S. D. FULLER.
