We are requested to place in nomi
nation, before the Senatorial ('(inven
tion, the name of HON. WM. M.
TUMLIN, of Randolph.
S«uatort;il IMUdct Conven
tion.
We suggest to the voters of Olay,
Randolph and Terrell counties that a
Convention be called to meet at Daw
aon on the 14th inst., at 10} o’clock,
a. m., for the purpose of nominating
a candidate for the Senate from the
•leventh Senatorial District. What
say Randolph and Clay?
Dfinorrilii 1 Jlcdins.
Tne Democratic party of Terrell
county are requested to meet at the
Court-house in Dawson on Monday,
11th inst., at 10 o’clock, a. m., for the
purpose of selecting delegates to the
Becond Congressional District Conven
tion to meet in Albany on the 21st
inst., and to nominate a candidate for
the Legislature. Let every one see to
it that there be a full meeting.
For tli«< S«nale.
We are informed by Hon. C. B.
Wooten that his business is such as to
preclude all possibility of his accept
ing the candidacy for the Senate from
thia district. In case he persists in
this conclusion, we suppose that Ran
dolph or Clay will want the Senator.
Let us hare a goo 1 man, an available
man, and one who has a clear record.
If Clay and Randolph can’t furnish
the candidate, wo are happy to say
that Terrell has the man that will fIU
the bill in every particular.
liU'.iiic'Mi is BiKini'ie.
All announcements bringing to
notice particular individuals as candi
dates for any oflfi -e, and all announce
ments as candidates for office is strict
ly personal business and will bo charg
ed for at regvrlar rates, and prepay
ment required if not otherwise agreed
OR.
€'O.V(*IiU!»SIO.YI it.
In a communication from “citizen”
to be found in another column, the
name of one of our fellow citizens,
lion. C. B. Wooten is recommended
to the voters of the second Congress
ional district as altogether worthy of
their support in the approaching
election for member to Congress. We
endorse the views of “citizen” in
toto as regards the honorable Senator's
qualifications, and while wo would bo
glad to lend our columns, and give
our influence to make him our next
representative in Congress, we expect
to acquiesce in the action of the con
vention, believing that that body will
look to nothing hut the good of the
Democratic party, and the country in
the selection of a candidate.
Candidates.
As individuals, wo may have our
particular favorites for candidates for
the- Legislature, but believe that this
is no time for favorites, and will ad
vocate the ticket that may be regular
ly nominated. We suggest that there
t>e district meetings held, aud dele
gates selected to meet at tho Court
Mouse in county conventions, at such
time as may be agreed on, for the
purpose of putting before the public
one ticket, and only one for the lower
branch of the Legislature.
If we look to tho interest of the
counties in which wo live, we will not
allow personal prejudices to enter into
the deliberations of our county meet
ings, and we trust that such will not
be the case ; for if any other end is to
be subserved than that of the good of
the country, we may look for such di
visions as will result in the defeat of
the Democratic nominess. Recollect,
friends, shat the Good Hook says, “a
house divided against itself cannot
stand.” So it is with the Democratic
party in South-western Georgia ; if
we be divided on account of personal
preferences or from auy other cause
wo may look to be repretea ted iu our
next Legislature by a carpet-bagger;’
scalawag, or gentleman of color, of
Radical persuasion. Let thero be
harmony, and let us all unite on one
ticket, and put our should r to the
wheel and as sure as right ever pre
vailed over wrong, so sure will we bear
aloft in victory the banner of Democ
racy, at the election in November.

Roue, Ga., Aug, 30tli 1870.
Dear Journal: I lmvo commenced
a dozen limes to write you from this
point hut invariably something has
turned up to prevent. This time I
hope to be able to send you some
thing.
Rome is a place of considerable
size, having it is supposed, between
live and six thousand inhabitants.—
Its situation is a mast happy and
beautiful ouo,lying in a groon and fer
tile valley,surrounded by picturesque
mountains washed on the right liy the
waters of the Oostanaula and on the
left by those of tho Etowah, tho con
fluence of which two rivers is inline-'
(liately at the foot of the principal
(Broad) street. Romo an l her scen-
ery present an appearance at mice in
teresting and captivating. Commer
cially it lias every facility for, and there
are many reasons why it should soon
become a city of very considerable im
portance. Capital, however, is scarce,
energy is sadly wanting, while public
spirited citizens here are certainly net
more numerous than tho soldiery of
Prussia. Those three great ossentials
might, you know, accomplish anything
—might build a World’s Metropolis
on the sau ly desert, but if tlioy could
be combined in Rome, we’d have a
city here that would put New York to
blush, and for which Atlanta would
not make a respectable “West End.”
As it is, I cannot predict the probable
future of the place, though I believe
it will continue slowly to grow (and
this, if it bs the case, will be attribu
tibleoitlyto its natural endowments)
until, aftor years, it will rank amongst
the largest of Georgia’s cities.
We have two railroads now in oper
ation—tho Rome Rail Road, which
connects us with the State Road at
Kingston, twenty miles distant, and
the Selma, Rome & Dalton Road, liav
]”ir the route indicated by its name.—
This road has but recently been com
pleted to Dultod, an ) is in a prosper
ous and flourishing condition, lhen
we have a project on foot to build a
road from some point near ChattanoO
ga to this place, to he known as tho
Memphis Branch. Tho house of Rep
resentatives voted us State aid to tnis
enterprise the other day, and there is
little doubt but that tho Senate will
concur. It is also probable we will
have a road from Columbus. A com
pletion of these enterprises would
make us a great railroad centre, and
add largely to our manufacturing fa
cilities and interest.
The Coosa River, formed by the
j unction of the rivers beforo mentioned,
is navigable a distance of one hun
dred and sixty, or more, miles, and
steamboats float from tho wharf at
Romo to within twenty miles of tho
Alabama River. By removing the
few obstructions in that part of the
River, we could have direct water
communication with Mobile. This
will, no doubt, eventually bo done.—
Tho manufacturing interest hero is
already somewhat extensive; we have
several large machine shops, rolling
mills, foundries, furniture factories
flouring mills etc. Rome boasts of
three daily newspapers. Money is
“tight,” and in consequence of the
cheapness of wheat and other produce
tho farmers are withholding it from
tho market, therefore it is not likely
wo will have much money in cir
culation soon. Crops in Cherokee
were n< ver better, aud it is predicted
corn will not be worth exceeding
fifty cents. Tho farmers hero have
planted largely of cotton and as a
general thing it looks well, consider
ing the climate and latitude. Politi
cally our citizens are mixed, morally,
ditto, there though is ratlior more of
immorality than thero is of radicalism;
religiously you can find them of every
conceivable denomination, all, how
ever, conceeding a large majority to
the “big church”. Asa general thing
you do not find that liberality, hospi
tality aud sociability here that char
acterizes the people of South Western
Georgia, and a young man hero with
out capital and indomitable persever
ance stands indeed a “poor showing;”
and has withall a “hard road to trav
el ” At last, Mr. Edito;, I believe yours
is the best country on earth, and if
I owned the world Id build my* pal
ace somewhere in the neighborhood of
Dawson. Respectfully,

23F“The residence of Charles Dick
ens, at Gadshill, has been purchased
b}' Charles Dickens the younger, for
the sum of six thousand pounds ster
ling, or $33,000 in gold. The house
was described by the auctioneer as
very commodious, and in perfect re
pair, containing eight bed rooms, two
servants s bed-rooms, a dining-room,
a handsome conservatory, and a small
billiard room. The grounds comprised
over seventeen acres and a half. Tho
Swiss chalet, or cottage, which had
been presented to Mr. Dickens, was
not detached from the property, al
though it was stated an American gen
tleman would have paid a liberal price
for it. A plat of eight acres of land,
forming part of the estate, was also
bought by Mr. Dickens, the younger
for $7,500.

Anlanta Ga., Aug, 24th 1870. $
Messrs Editors:
Will you please give mo space in
your widely circulated paper to bring
before tho citizens of Georgia, and
especially tho people of the second
Congressional District, tho name of
one of Georgia’s rfiost gifted sons as
a suitable person to represent Us in
the Congress of tho United States.—
In the selection of a candidate duo re
gard should bo had to qualification ;
and whilst wo have many good and
true men in tho District, we should
remember that firmness is not the only
prerequisite as a qualification. I
think 1 shall only speak the voice of
tho whole people when I say that the
State should he ropresontatod by one
well acquainted with parliamentary
law, and gifted with the powers of
argument. Our people have been so
long and so frequently misrepresented
that erroneous impressions have been
made hard to he eradicated; yet it is
of vital importance to the State of
Georgia that true light should be had
and truth mantained. This great
work cannot be accomplished by any
ordinary man and should not be un
dertaken unless by ono capable of
faithfully and ably performing!
tho same. This being my own dis
trict I have been casting about in my
mind for the coming man, and without
wishing to disparage the claim of any
friends who may have aspiration in
that direction, I will take the liber-!
ty of suggosting the name of Hon.
C. B. Wooten. I have seen much of
him as a legislator for tho last three
sessions of tho General Assembly and
must say that his dignified demeanor,
and his powers of argumentation have
so borno upon me that I am prepared
to say that if ho should be elected
to Congress from the second district
our people would be in safe hands.
Mr. Wooten is a gentleman in every
particular. Educated, refined—skilled
in parliamentary usages, strong in de
bate, his voice will be replete with
power. Moderate in his manner of
denouncing men and measures, is free
from exciting passion in the mind
of his opponents. Courteous never fail
ing to win tho respect ol those differ
ing with him, —I should indeed be
pleased to seo his name hoisted as tho
national representative of our Dis
trict.
Iu writing this communication I
make no war upon the claim of any
one and shall cheerfully cooperate
with my party in electing any one
placed before us as a candidate.
Citizen.
The School liill.
Tho following synopsis of tho
Schooll Bill is taken from the Augus
ta Chronicle & Sentipel:
The Governor, Attorney General,
Secretary of State, Comptroller Gen
eral and State School Commissioner
aro to constitute a board to be denomi
nated “The Georgia State Board of Ed
ucation.” Os this board, tho State
School Commissioner is the executive
officei, and his clerk, tho secretary.—
Tho said clerk is provided with a sala
ry of not exceeding S2OO per annum.
The State School Commissioner ap
pointed by the Governor, with the
consent of the Senate (as the Consti
tution directs,) shall have a salary of
$2,500 per annum. All his necessa
ry traveling expenses incurred in the
performance of his official duties, post
age and incidental exponses arising in
his office, shall be paid out of the
Treasury in the manner as the differ
ent departments of the Government.
He is required to keep an itemized ac
count of all expenses connected with
his department, which account must
he audited by the State Board.
The State Road liolds lands, etc.,for
educational purposes in trust for the
State, and is required forthwith to
pay over to tho State Treasurer, for
safe keeping, all monies, personal
property, etc., accuring by devise,
grant, or gift. The General Assem
bly may invest such money in the
name of the State. The School fund
is to be kept sacred for educational
purposes. The State Treasurer is
held, upon his bond, for such monies,
etc.
Tho State Board prescribes, from
time to time, what text books and
books of reference shall be used in tho
common schools; and is required to
lay before the Legislature annually a
detailed aecouut of the acts and do
ings of said Board.
THE STATE SCHOOL COMMISSIONER
shall visit tho schools throughout the
State as often as possible and practica
ble, and in so doing will examino into
the condition of the schools, superin
tend and encourage teachers’ insti
tutes, and deliver lectures on topics
calculated to subserve the interests of j
popular education. It is his duty to j
apportion to the school districts the '
school revenue raised by law. In a
word, ho is to exercise a minute su
pervision over the whole system—to,
note its defects and suggest remedies
therefor.
COUNTY BOARD OF EDUCATION.
Each and every county is to have
a Board of Education, composed of
one member from each militia district
and ward in any city or county—
elected by the legal voters at the reg
ular election for members of the Gen
eral Assembly—to hold office for two
j’ears. Each board ceetson the first
Tuesday of the month succeeding that
of their election, and shall organize b3'
electing one of their number Presi
dent, and a suitable person Socretan-
which last mentioned officer, by said
election, becomes County Continsslon
or or Superintindent. The Board
meets monthly. At their first meeting
they shall carefully lay out; and de
scribe sub-school districts throughout
their county; establish schools of va
rious grades, have tho care and custo
dy of all houses, sites, libraries; may
sue and ho sued; receive grants, etc.,
and manage tho same in tho interests
of the schools; employ, pay and dis
miss teachers; build, repair and fur
nish school houses and make all nec
essary provisions for said schools.
THE cor NT Y COMMISSIONER
examined, in tho presence of the
Board, applicants for teachers’ posi
tions, and issue license of first, sscond
Or third grade according to the ratio
of correct answers lie is authorized
to revoke licenses for incomptency,
im morality, cruelty, or neglect of du
ty. Teachers have tho right of appeal
to tho Board whose decision is filial
unless an appeal is made to tho Stato
School Commissioner within ten days
after dismissal. He is to receive a
per diem of §3 for each day
in his oliicial duties. The County
Board is empowered to fix tho num
ber of days in each year in which the
said county commissioner shall labor.
SCHOOL DIRECTORS OR TRUSTEES.
The lentil voters in each sub-district
shall elect on tho first Saturday in Jan
uary in each year, three School Trus
tees—one tor three years, one for
two years, and one for ono year—an
nually thereafter ono trustoo shall be
elected for three years. They visit
the schools twice each term “They
are co-adjutors of the County Board
and through them full statisics, etc.,
are obtained. Tho only paid officers,
are the County Commissioners and
teachers in each county; the State
School Commissioner and his clerk.
County Boards may, at their discre
tion, up n their respective fields, pro
vide a suitable number of evenitur
schools for the instruction of youth
over fourteen years of age, who aro
prevented by their daily occupatiou
from attending day scliuols.
AMBULATORY SCHOOLS.
Wherever three militia districts are !
found near each other, containing not
less than 15 children of the school
age, provision shall he made whereby :
school may bo kept in each two:
months in the year. This is to be ae- j
complished by what are known as
ambulatory or circuit teachers.
SEPERATE SCHOOLS.
The trustrees are required to make
all necessary arrangements for the in
struction of the white and colored
youth iu separate schools. The same
facilities shall bo provided for each.—
‘But the children of the white and
colored races shall not be taught to
gether in any sub-district of the State
Uuil'ss at a regular school meeting of
said disu.'ct, h*ld for the purpose, it
shall bo so determined, by a majority
of the legal voters of the vrhite race
and majority of the legal voters ol the
colored race.
TnE COMMON SCJIOOL FUND.
The pool tax, special tax on shows '
and exhibitions, spiritous and malt
liquors, commutation of military ser
vice, endowments, devises, bequests i
and gifts made or to be made to the j
State, and all educational funds and in- |
comes not belonging to or duo the ;
State University, and tho net earnings '
of the State Road are set apart as the
common school fund. The State Board
determines the amount necessary to bo
raised by taxation annually in addition
to the foregoing and reports the esti
mate to the General Assembly.
County Boards are not prevented
from levyieg, as is now the case, a
special county tax upon the Stato tax
for educational purposes-
The Agricultural Pursuits of Prus
sia.—Tho withdrawal of so many men
from agricultural and other pursuits,
by the war between France aud Prus
sia, will not, it is stated, produce as
much material loss as might be sup
posed, since in both the countries
mentioned out-door labor is to a great
extent performed by females. In
Prussia, at tho pressent time not only
peasant woman, but females of the
middle classes are gathering in their
harvests, guarding the flocks and
doing field work. For many years
women have been employed in Prus
sia as station agents and signal officers
on the railroads; and, if necessity re
quired, women, no doubt, could act as
conductors on tho trains. The call for
troops has brought out only men un
der forty years, and it is estimated
that fully a million of able-bodied
Prussians could be placed under arms
in addition to the seven hundred
thousand now in the field. Under
these circumstances, it is believed that
there are men and women in Prussia
in sufficient numbers to perform agri
cultural labor, so that the population
will not suffer from want of food.
