Roberts, has just returned from New York with a large assortment of Dry Goods. Our friend Mr. Chsrley Brown, will take delight in showing you many nice things. Call and see them. Confederate Money— Our mind was carried baek * few years, by tbs sight of two Confederate Notes in the hands of a freedmen the other day. He bad bought goods from some house and received the money in -change, but didn’t have sense enough to -carry it back to the plaoe where ha had received it. Q ur Merchants should not cheat the -poor ignorant blockheads, that dont Ttnow one bill from another. It will codoubtedly haves badcffcotand should not bo practiced. We are paioed to record tb* sad aod fa-al accident that occurred on the sth at Fort Games. We learn from the Chattakoochee Mirror, that the new bridge being built acroas the river, a> this point became endangered from the sudden rise in the river, in addition to about thirty bauds employed, to work on tbs bridge, a number of citiecns vol unteered tbeir serviocs to assist in se curing the bridge from drifiiog timber* that were lodging against the structure beneath. While th-y were engaged th • whole give way, falling from a height of ninety feet carrying all the occupants with it, killiag some ou ridht, moral ly wounding, and seriously irju ing others. Among the killed arc J C. Hill. Sheriff of Clay county and Hooker Htevens, also two negroes ; several whites mortally wounded, some misting ‘ The umgt of the workmen not heard from wene e ilored.

This is wrong and should not be practiced hr anv noe, white or black, old or young. These things weie placed on the graves hy relatives ands i nda of tbedeceas ed, as mementoes of love and friendship. We ir gret very ranch to be compelled to notice anything of ihe kind, and are gorrv to learn that we have in our community such low, mean and thoughiless character* as those who have been guilty of robbing the dead of the few relics that were placed upon the little mounds above them.

To Old tine Whigs, George D, Prentice saye: If there he a aoitary human beiog within our reach, who, by #i>me whimsical hook ■or crot.k of heart or brain, has got on the wrong wide of the line of battle— particularly is he has been old Whig, or Union man, and considers it a sort of duty to go ugains' the Democrats we entreat him to pause, and reflect upon wn.it he is nbout to do. Why should he go with the Democrats? All the i-euea over which we used to fight are dead. 1 he Democratic party itself «* reorganized after a division which eoinpletely destroyed and receated it. n 1860 it fought within itself as reso utejy as we ever fought against it.— ines have changed ; men htve c anged ; issa-s h ive changed.

It exempts p raonal propeily to ’he amount of three thousand dollar* in go and. The Judiciary Committee report in favor of removing tha Capital of the Stato beck to Miiiedgville. Tue Cotton Crop and its Pnot- PKCTB.— The New York correspondent of the Augusta Constitutionalist gives the following advice to cotton plund ers : It seems to be pretty well settled that the cotton crop for 1867-8 will be about 2,200,000 bttles, or alxiut 300,- 000 bales less than the estimates of one year ago. It ie also estimated now that, with a somewhat reduced acreage, the crop for 1868 9 will never theless, be fully 2,400 000 bales. I hove to caution planters against the repetition of the experience of lasi fall, when the price was forced down to 15$ cents in this market, and the plan ter deprived ol a lair return lor hi* la bor and capital. 1 must repeat the advice which I then gave, to delay marketing the crop as long as possible after the pi ice falls to 25 cents fur Middling in this market. Ail that can be got to market while we are above that figure will be eo much clear gain of strength lor struggle in supporting the price after we full below 25 ceDts. The crop of 2,400,000 bales is worth 25 cents in this market, and let plant ers see to it that they are not again jockeyed. We are going to have cheaper food. Not so cheap as in “old times'’ to be sure, but much cheaper than in the past two or three years. T hi* will help the marketing of cutton goods very much. Norths: n labor is to be belter employed. That ie another cir cumstance in favor of cotton. Egypt has returned to growing wheat; she w ill supply no cotton; therefore, let American planters hold on anJ they will get their price. At the same time factors should act with the greatest caution. There is danger of seri -us disorders in the money market. There is a disposition among bankin j houses to strengthen themselves against pos sible conling-ncies. There are those who affect to snuff trouble in the breeze. The possibility of a dose and dispu ed Presidential election is creat ing some alarm. Money considers tions ul -ue have prevented a further advance in gold. The Prayer of the Widow. Beside a grave knelt a young wid ow, not long since, says the LoCrotse Democrat in a quiet town in the State of Pennsylvania By the foot of the ti tle “home” where slept her Husband, a ctitlri lay. innocent Hnd ignorant ol i.s mother’s sorrow. Curiosity excited us and we approached, to b ar her in roken words, with hands clasped and upheld, face upturned, and dishevell ed hair, pray as follows. The first of the prayer wo did not hear; the close was this: ‘•And, Father in Heaven, I loved him. He was all the world to me He loved me—he bald my head so cioee to his heart—he cared for me so tenderly. But l let him go when h.s country called, for it was to save his country, they told m-\ And oh I my Father in Heaven, how I watched and waited for him—how I prayed for his sale return. Bui Thy will was done, and he was taken from me. And with him went to save hi* country, iny br.lh er. And he come home wounded, and then be died, and left a mourner like me. And she died broken heart ed, and left me this little child to love as my own—as my own was denied me And, oh! Futhor in Heaven, help me to keep this charge—tell me how to care for it—show me how to rear it, aDd make it good. And give me—oh ! give in", Father in Heaven, str ngth to labor for it; foi wo are all poor and ah-ne and do one to cate for us now Oh ! give me health—give strength to work lor this dear one, for if I, too, fad, who will care for the lit tle one now ?” And ia the air we saw over her the spectre of her loved and lost, and this is nhst he told her, or tried to : “Ab, my po«r wife, pray on. Pray to God, for none other in power will bear your prayer. I was taken from you—l lost an arm in battle—a leg in the same—l suffered in hospital—l died and left you a» the mercy of those who fooled me. Yes 1 pray to God ! He wi 1 hear you; but those who mur dered me—w ho are robbing you—who hold a mortgage on that little one— they will hear nothing unless it hn« the chink and clink of gold The country to them is nothing. The sufferings of soldiers who fought while they stole, is nothing to these. The agony of those who mourn is nothing. All they want is the gold. And for this, for them, I died I And for them I left you in pover'y 1 For them I gave my life, and your heart! ’Twas to enrich them and make a slave ol that little one I died ! Yes, pray to God, for none other in power will help you !” non. Thomas B.

The great mass of people from whom the just powers of g vernwent tre derived, see in the nominees of the Democracy statesmanship aud lofty pa triotism. Horatio Seymour glands to day pre-eminently at the bead of living American statesman. Since the days of Webster, Clay, Calbonn, 8ila», Wright, and Stephen A. Douglas, he U»- been without a peer in all these qnalitica of the head and heart which make up the roan of enlarged views aßd patrio ie impulses. Bis private life ia without spot or blemish ; his public career is untarnished by any dishonora ble act., such as characterize too many of our public men of our dry.” The above is from a Democrotic source, but here is what tbe leading radical organ, tbe San Francisco Bulle tin, ssys of Ex-Gozernor Seymour : “He (Governor Bejmour) is a man of splendid presence, of magoetio man ners, and absolute purity of character, which traits, eombioed wi h his disinter estedness as a partisan, give him great popularity aud influence, and will make him the most formidable compel tor of Grant that could bare been nominated from the great State of New Nork.— Tbe objections to Seymour will be pure ly political.’' Tnx Dkvil to Pat in the Radical Camp.— The Atlanta Conslitutiou says a certain individual now in Atlanta, than whom no one has played a more prominent part in the negro Radicul usurpation scheme, threatens 'o exp >se the enormities of his party. He claims to have it black an 1 white, that Gor don bear Bullock 6 000 votes for Gov ernor ; that he has sacrificed his honor anJ self respect in the service of tbe Radical party; that instead of being rewarded according to his deserts, t>v those whom he tilt' and to p iwer, he has been given the cold shoulder and in oontineutly shelved ; that he is deter mined to s'and it no longer, and final ly, that if the He cov does not do it ‘‘right quick,” he intends to throw such a bombshell into his pen as will turn Lis horns tai wards.

Mr. Coleman, of Nashvilie, surprised a gang of negroes while they were »t --tempting to break into his store a few nights since, but they turned on him and would hsve doubtless beaten him to death had it not been for the timrly assistance of neighbors. The rascals made good their escape.
