Gwinnett Herald: A young roan by the name of Batter, who worked at John Perry’s mill in Walton county, was liter ally sawed to pieces last week. He was hearing off lumber from the saw while it Was running, and, in taking' a piece of timber off, It came in contact with the saw, which jerked him forward upon It. His left leg was cut off entirely just above the knee, the right leg was disjointed at the knee, and liis right hand sawed to pieces. His body was terribly bruised. He lived about sis hours, suffering terri ble torture. Augusta Chronicle: John Kelly made a patriotic speech in the Democratic State convention in Nety York yesterday. He referred glowingly to Ben Hill’s Tam many Hall speech, and showed up with pride the handsome treatment of the col ored people of Georgia, where 70,000 col ored children attend public schools, and taxes on two millions of property are paid by colored men. Gov. Colquitt’s administration will be of inestimable value to the National party North, and will be received with gratilication by the people of Georgia. Savannah News: We learn that Rev. R. J. Corley, the beloved pastor of Trinity Methodist Church, who met with such a severe and serious accident in get ting off a tiain at Mount Airy in July last, is expected home this week. He has not entirely recovered from the effects of his great injury, and his strength is still im paired. We regret to hear that the jnjury is so serious as to permanently cripple him, the injured leg being an inch or so shorter than the other. Chilli cot he (O.) Express: The meeting of Saturday evening last, at the City Hall, when that gallant gentleman from Georgia, It. JK. Kenuon, addressed the largest assemblage of the canvass, was one to be remembered and pondered on. No meeting oftbe campaigu has been characterized witli such enthusiasm, aud nothing so much has occurred to enliven, enthuse, and make more firm, the masses of the Democracy... The honorable gen tleman held -the meeting for over two hours, in a convulsive and enthusiastic indorsement of liis truths. His picture of the real state of affaiis drove Republi cans sneaklnglv from the hall. The as semblage Was only regretful when he had ceased. We only wish Mr. Kennon could speak in every town in Ohio, and that we could send his friends a greeting in the Banner State of tiie South over his suc cesses in the’North. Si* acta Ishmaelite:. Mr. A- R. Buck ner, after a long and wasting illness, qui etly passed put of existence on last Fri day morning. He was buried on Satur day morning, by the Masonic order, of which lie was a member.

Gean, the carrier of the mail between Athens and Watkins- vllle, Informs us that yesterday morning, while in Watkinsville, he saw a colored man go to Sheriff Overby, and asked to he put in jail and chained. Being asked his reason, lie said he had been bitten by a mad dog, and for fear that he would himself be attarked witli hydrophobia, and bite some one else, he desired to be Incarcerated and chained. The sheriff complied, and the poor fellow is now in durance, awaiting, in all probability, the most horrible death that can befall a man. This man is Thomas Akins, who was bit ten by the dog which Mr. Thomas Jonas killed—an account of which the Banner published a few days since. The medical faculty ought to take hold of this case. The man ought not to be left to die witb- oot an effort to save him. • If this case could be successfully treated, it would not only save a valuable human life, but would be of great benefit to medical sci ence. Why not look into the matter, Messrs. Doctors? Augusta Nines: Dr. John Cartright, a native of Bourbon county, Kentucky, a resident of Greene county, Ga., for more than fifty years, and an old and highly respected Christian gentleman, died at his residence near Long Shoal, at 5. p. in., on the 24 instant.

The seed was planted in April, 1870, and this, stalk with several others was left standing andmarked, as they were sprout-1 ing at the time the land was being plowed. Griffin News; - We do not remember an occasion so sad, or a shock more ter rible, than the sudden death yesterday of our esteemed citizen, Col. R. H. Sims. He was at his cotton office yesterday fore noon, engaged in the usual,, routine of business, apparently as hale and hearty as ever, though he had complained somewhat the evening previous. He went home, at noon, and feeling au attack coining, l8y down upon-a lounge. Ho was lying upon his hack when Ids wife and daughter, per ceiving that he was sufleriog, and think ing a change of position might bring re lief, assisted liinwJu-turning -upon his side. The attack was then seen to be so violent that they thought, he was dying, and in their alarm, sent a messenger iu hot liaste for Dr. Moore, who,: .upon re ceiving word, hurried to .the house, but fouud that death had preceded lum. The Doctor prouounced the fatal attack paralysis of the heart, with which the de ceased had been some time threatened. Columbus Times: At 10:30 yesterday the alarm of fire was sounced from the Eagle & Fhenix Manufacturing Company. From what information we could obtain, the lire originated in the picker-room, where the boys were tramping cotton, where it is supposed a match became ig nited aud set fire to the open cotton. The working forces were quickly at work, and with the admirable system of waterworks which the Eagle and Fhenix have inau gurated, a disastrous lire is almost impos sible. The employes worked heartily, and soon had the fire under control. There was no necessity for any assistance from the city fire department, as the per fect water arrangements..of the. Eagle & Fhenix are sufficient to. extinguish any fire that may occur. From ..an at tache of the office we learn . that the damage to open cotton which was being picked over amounted to about $1,500 and that only Hie belting in the machinery room was damaged. The main buildings were not at all injured aud tlie company as well as the citizens of the county should feel happy in knowing that the damage was not more serious than it was. The loss has been estimated by one of the at taches of the office at two or three thou sand dollais. The main buildings of the factories are still at work ami the opera tors hardly know of the fire which, wc hare reported. . ... Athens Walclanan: The exercises of the fall term of the University begin Oc tober Cth, and the prospects are good for an increased attendance.

September's receipts last year, amounted to 20,208 hales, while the receipts for Sep tember this year, ran up to 33,780 hales. This is an item that sneaks for itself. Sandeusville Herald: Washington county is to he congratulated upon the solvent character of its population. Only 347 voters are defaulter out of 3,000 polls in the county while the superinten dent of the Bibh county public schools reports 384 polls paid out of a voting population of from 4,000 to 5,000.

Eastman Times: We learn that the steam saw and grist mill belonging to Mrs. Fannie Robinson of Laurens county, near Dublin, was burnt to the ground on Saturday night last, together with about 70 bushels of corn.

Houser, who is farm ing about three miles east of Ferry, has this year already gathered twenty hales of cotton, besides a vely fair com crop from a two mule farm. We did not leam the number of acres in cultivation, but we did leam that Mr. Houser expects to gath er five or six more bales of cotton. We call this very good farming. Savannah Neies: Early Tuesday morning, between two and three o'clock, as John W. Thomas, a drummer fora Mobile clothing bouse, was passing the corner of Montgomery and Bay streets, he encountered two negroes, who suddenly sprang upon him, knocking him to tlie ground. They then gave him several licks over tlie head, rendering him semi- unconscions, when they proceeded to rifle liis pockets, obtaining several articles and fourteen dollars In* money. The high waymen then fled and succeeded in ma- ing their escape. Mr. Thomas, we un derstand, has not entirely recovered from the effects of the attack, but it is said will remain here to have the parties who are known, arrested and prosecuted. , Atlanta Post: Yesterday a horrible accident occurred near John Lowe’s plan tation, a few miles from Atlanta, by which a colored man lost bis life. The man was engaged, in a gin house on the outside of which an engine was working to which was attached a fly-wheel with a belt ran- iiing’tlirougha hole hi the building. While the negto was stauding near the belting, his clothes were caught by the belting and he was drawn down through the hole. Those who were standing near aL hand, upon rushing into tile building, saw the man lying on the floor literally tom to pieces. Every bone in his body appeared to ha broken, and dtffflMh badly lacera ted. The negro lived only a few mo ments. Savannah News: Yesterday afternoon about half-past five o'clock, Policeman Leach discovered a wliiteman lying at the comer of Habersham and Jones streets in a suffering condition. He had the unfor tunate man transferred to the Savannah Hospital, where he received good atten tion. It was asceiUised that his name was John F. Rivers, aud that he is from Chicago. Perry Home Journal: A correspond ent from Byron writes: Hardly ever lie- fore has there been so much cotton open in the fields at one time, and such a de mand for hands, at 50 to 150 cents per 100 pounds. Several farmers have sent their wagons ana teams Jo Macon for hands, ami brought them out by loads, and the demand is not supplied. A, heavy crop wi*l certainly be gathered. Money has begun to circulate, and the Byron mer chants are smiling over their prospects. Savannah News : A very serious and probably fatal accident occurred in a lmusc in Habersham row, darly yesterday morning.

Cuthbert Appeal: Capt.O. A.Horne has been engaged for several" days past putting up a new lino of telegraph wire between Cuthbert’ and Arlington. The work will be completed in a few days, when Arlington will be brought to the front by telegraphic communication with the outer world. Sparta Times and Planter: We regret to announce the death of Mrs. Josiah Carr, which occurred last. Sunday morn ing. She was the daughter of Mr. Henry Collins and a most estimable lady. With sorrow we chronicle the death of Mrs. A. B: Buckner. After a lingering illness ot several months his life went out quietly, peacefully. Without a struggle his spirit took its flight into eternity. What a fitting death—as he lived so he died. Mr.. Buckner was a gentleman of sterling qualities, and his death leaves a void in the community that will he hard to fill. For a number of years he was cleric of the Superior Court, and he dis charged his dutieswith efficiency. He was buried with Masonic, honors. Cochran Enterprise: Messrs. Peacock & Oberry have gathered and sold, twenty- eight heavy baie3 of cotton up to two weeks'.ago from fifty-four acres of land, aud will get fifteen more bales, and prob- ably twenty. They used compost at a cost of $2.00 per acre. .Thorough prepara tion and . good culture did. the business. There is no gassing in this estimate. Brunswick Advertiser: From a gentle man just returned from the Mineban-Cal- uan camp, on the new railroad from Way- cross to Jacksonville, we learn that an Irishman, a stranger, had gone down there and tried to get work. Having failed, he had indulged too freely in liquor, and was lying by the road, drunk, when a Swede, named Charley ^atterson, also in liquor, came along, and, without provocation, as far as we can learn, made an assault upon the drunken Irishman, and actually kick ed him to death, and then left for other parts. The sheriff was notified, and was iu pursuit at last accounts. This same chap (the Swede) sought to get into a dif ficulty with our informant just a short while before the killingoccurred. • Amkricus Reporter: A few nights ago some one entered the roomrof Lackington Soellings, the proprietor of the peanut stand on Forsytli street, by placing a lad der against the side of the house and rais ing a window. After rummaging aromid and not finding tlie money he was evi dently looking for, he made liis escape, as he came, through the window, and suc ceeded in getting off without being seen. It was a bold act, and a great pity he made his escape. • Augusta Chronicle: Yesterday morn ing we learn that as a colored woman, liv ing in Battle Row, was fascinatingly en gaged in killing a snake, her little child crawled into the fire and was burned to death. Savannah Neies: During the month of September the ai rivals of for eign steamships at this port have numbered twenty-six, including some of the largest first-class English steamships afloat. The entries of coastwise tonnage for the same period are tbe largest in the history of the port. Oglethorpe Echo', A prominent farmer informs us that he notices stalks of codon growing among Bermuda grass that are loaded with bolls, while others near at hand, on soil free from this pest, are slirn- iy fruited. He argues that this grass re tains moisture through dry weather and is an advantage instead of drawback to the plant. It fa a singular fact that during a dry summer cotton tiiat lias been sadly neglected by both the hoe and plow yields much better than those crops prop erly tended—thus substantiating the fact that grass does produce moisture. Far mers call these “tlie lazy man's years.” Grain crops must be kept clean to pro duce. Columbus Enquirer: Yesterday morn ing Mr. A. G. McCrary was coming to the city with three bales of cotton on his wagon. His little son was riding on top of the cotton. When in a few miles of tlie city he came to a wagon which had broken down, and *ftVas necessary for him to drive to ono.side. In doing so one of the wheels of liis wagon ran into a hole, winch caused it to tarn over, one of the bales falling on his little son. He lilted the bale and picked tbe boy up, 'expecting to find him crushed to death, but as by a miracle he was unbanned. Fort Gaines Tribune: Mr. J. A. Haskins happened to a very painful and serious accident last Wednesday. For soars time he has been nmning the sta tionary engine that drives the cotton gin of Captain F. K. Freeman, In Franklin, Alabama, and while oiling some part of the machinery his right arm became in some way entangled, aud was broken be tween the wrist and elbow, the upper portion of his arm, near the shoulder, fearfully lacerated, the skin, flesh aud muscles being literally tom asunder, mak ing a- most frightful wound. Ho was brought over homo betweeu 12 and 1 o'clock in a wagon, and Dra. Johnston, 1 Mandeville and Hatchett dressed bis wounds, and did all they could to relieve liis suffering. Special to Augusta Chronicle and Constitutionalist: Waynesboro, Ga., Sep tember 30.—The meeting here to-day was enthusiastic, orderly and respectable. Mr. Walsh made a speech of au hour and a half, which was well received. Governor Colquitt followed In a two hours’ speech, which elicited outbursts of applause aud rendered his vindication complete. Burke will give him one thousand majority. The colored voters are nearly unanimous for our present Governor. Governor Colquitt leaves for Albany to-night, where he speaks on Saturday. Bainbridge Democrat: We are pleased to know that this district is to the reverse ot “Blackjack." We have only two Norwood men in the whole district; and we want that number to grow beau tifully less on the 0th of October. The little darkles intliese parts are sing ing: “Colquitt got the majority, And Norwood got his “nine.” Colquitt will bo elected And Norwood will stay behind.” Savannah Neios: Yesterday morn ing some ninety bauds, mostly from Vir- § iuia, arrived here by the Charleston aud avannah railway, en route to work on the Way cross railway, uow being con structed, and left'on the train by the Sa vannah, Florida and Western railway tor their destination. The party suffered a detention oi some hours in Charleston in consequence of a telegram from the mayor of Norfolk to the chief of police in that city requesting that two young whit* men, George Roberts aud Samuel C. Talbert, from tlie_cars the Jarge male elephant, who had escaped from Norfolk witli the Chieftain, became maddened at, it is sup- party, be arrested. Roberts was found,! posed, the large and noisy crowd of boys but, after a close investigation, it was dis- i and men gathered around the car con- covered that Talbert was not in the party, mining the elephants. When Mr. John some forty of whom had been taken to the King, the keeper, who has been in charge station house for the purpose of being ex- of him for the past ten years, approached amrned. The men were released, and to take the elephants out of the car, Roberts held to await requisition. Tlie Chieftain grew furious. Mr. King endeav- charge against him was not specified. oriug to subdue him, the elephant butted not be on hand at the appointed day, but it is tr$e)aliytliat thp-presi’ni indications; point to a crowd from whieh they will scarcely be missed. “ It is certain that in addition to the com panies which will, visit Atlanta from the North, there will be present also twenty- five or thirty from the surrounding States, and a vast crowd hot in uniform. It strikes us that Captain Burke has turned on a stream which he is unable to check, and which Atlanta itself is now forced to meet. The city is not now in a condition to receive and entertain at her hotels a crowd much larger than that brought on by the Legislature, and there is hut one thing left them to do. They must take into their private houses these guests, and en tertain them as the friends ol' Atlanta; welcome to places JiyJier firesides. It is this or disgrace,,andare. glad to see that her citizens have awakened to a full knowledge of the fact. -> • But the affair belongs nof to Atlanta alone. When these companies return to their homes, and their story is told by tongue or by the press to the country,it will be about the welcome and the treatment received, not at the bauds of the Gate City Guard, nor at the bauds of Atlanta, but at the hands of Georgia and Gcor- glaris. * Now, the State stands precisely in the same relation to Atlanta, as Atlanta does to the Gate City Guard. We were.not expecting company, but one of the boys has used our note paper with the crest on it, and tbe recipients looking on that crest have said, “Well, those Georgians down there are hospitable fellows and will set ’em up. We will go.” They are right, too; we will set them up. We must help At lanta entertain and receive these guests, who come to Georgia expecting a wel come. Nowjiow shall we do it. Easy enough. Let every city of the State send a repre sentative company to Atlanta, to stand with her people in the depot and say to strangers: “We are not members of the Gate City Guard, nor arc we Atlanteseon this occasion, WaaVe Georgians every one, and glad to see you.” The presence of five or six hundred native Georgians te open bottles and respond to toasts, would lift a terrible load off the shoulders of At lanta. The Volunteers will take action to night regarding the trip, and will, we think, decide unanimously to go. They can leave this city Saturday night anil Atlanta Monday night, thus losing only one business day. THE LAST OF HIS COMPANY. Interviewing; lire Only Original Ma con "Volunteer Now Living. , Yesterday afternoon a Telegraph reporter saw hurrying down the street, a bale and hearty old gentleman, resting his weight only lightly upon his stick as he strode along, aud stepping as sprightly, barring a faint limp, as a youth of twenty. The square, determined face, set above the old-fashioned stock, Is familiar to many of our citizens, as that of Col. R. L. Mott, of Columbus. Catching up with him, the reporter remaiked; “Colonel, you are now probably the only living member of the body of men, who, on the 23rd of April, 1825, organiz ed themselves into a military company, under the name of tbe “Macon Volun teers.” Bo you know anything of their early history other than we would he likely to have iu Die minutes.” “I never was a member of the Macon Volunteers.” “OL, yes you were. Your autograph ;is attached to the original constitution and by-laws, and is identical with your pres ent signature.” "Is that so? I believe you are right. >Yes, I was a member. I had a tailoriug establishment here, and had their uni forms made for them.” “And unless old Mr. Chain is dead, you are the only one of that baud that re- Imains.” Oh, Chain died years ago. And I am ,the ouiy one left. Well 3 well 3 Wbat iday of the month is this ?” “September 30th.” “To-day, .fifty-nine years ago, I was 'married. Yes, that is as you say, a long Jtime ago, hut the events of those days are 'clear to me yet. Iam more than eighty yearn old. What ever became of Hplmes’ 'sword?” “Don’t kuow,” replied the reporter, i“that was before my time. Didn’t he ;t ake it out to Mexico ?” ; “No. It reachedriiere from New York ( after be left, aDd when he died it wassent ■to his widow. I got her to give it to tiie company, and she did so. They ought to .have it. No, I don’t remember much about tlie organization. My sister will remember, and I will get her to write it out for you. Goodbye; I am going over to the asylum to-night. The annual report must he gotten ready for the Legislature.” The Colonel turned away at the Brown .House, and tlie only living Volunteer of ilS25 hurried across aud disappeared in the depot. When his company first paraded he could have gotten lost iu the woods where the depot now .stands,and drowned in the swamp two hundred yards in front of it. An Unfortunate Tour. As ono of our exchanges remarks, Rob inson’s tour has been one of misfortune. Mr. James Robinson, son of the proprie tor, lias been compelled to leave the com pany on account of his ill health, and is now on his way to Cincinnati. Mr. Rob inson is suffering with Bright’s disease, and it is stated that lie would not live long enough to reach his home alive. He was accompanied by his father, brother Jack and a sister, and was supplied with a Pullman sleeper from Atlanta to Cin cinnati. He left tlie^ circus at Charlotte, N. C. Mr. Rohiiisoif is about thirty years of age and has made a world-wide reputa tion as a rider. [He died before reaching home.] On tlie arrival of the circus at Char lotte, N. C., a fatal aceideut occurred, one of the keepers being killed by an ele phant. As the animals were being taken Messrs. Butler, Lester and Norwood and Reform spoke eight hours here yesterday. Early yesterday morning' 1 requested a .Norwood man tq take .particular notice, anflSf the tpoechfcst lhadt aby changes from Colquitt to Norwood, or even from the fence to Norwood, to let me kuow.liow many ami who they. were. He agreed to it, and late in the afternoon, af ter the speaking, he told me he would make Ids ripdrt this morning. At ten this morning lie came in and said he was ready, and I took my pen and paper to make a list, and asked him to proceed. “Bill Patterson, colored,” said lie. I wrote it down, and said, “well.” “That’s all,” said lie, looking as if he had forsak en all his friends of their own accord. And he was right. The time, trouble, and expense of these three gentlemen, the enthusiastic reception, anil grand flourish; the loss Of a whole day from their fields and business, of from three to four hun dred persons; eight hours speaking from Mr. Norwood bimself and his right and left bowers,, who, "With words of learned length and thun dering sound, ’ Amazed tlie gazing farmers ranged around,” without a particle of effect, except chang ing the mind of one poor negro. The question uow is “Who struck Billy Fsi te rson ;” Butler, Lester, or Norwood aud reform? Echo answers, “Who.” P. S. Tlie reason there was so large a crowd here is that Mr. Norwood’s friends pui out the report all over the country that Gen. Gordon would be here to reply to Mr. Norwood; ami consequently half the audience were Colquitt men. But they are as firm as rocks. Terrell county will give Gov. Colauitt a liauilsome ma jority. ‘ W. TWIGGS COUNTY WAGON TRAIN. The Kiisli on Coleman A Newsom—A Supper at Night. Yesterday at noon Twiggs county’s wagon train, hearing one hundred and twenty-six hales of cotton, and consisting of forty-eight separate teams, arrived in the city. It was preceded by a brass band, and attracted attention everywhere it went during its parade. The front wagon bore a banner, upon whieh was inscribed: “We, the citizens of Twiggs county, carry our cotton to our frieuds, Coleman & Newsom and A. B. Jones.” Nearly three hundred people accompa nied the train, and at night they were in vited to and partook of a bountiful sap per spread for them by the enterprising firm of. Coleman & Newsom. The firm received 210, bales by wagon during tbe day. As a straw showing the politics of Twiggs couuty, it may he well to state that all of the number present, except twenty, were for Colquitt for Governor. MR. JASPER F. GREER. He Moves to Florida. Night before last quite a large party of ladies and gentlemen assembled at the de pot to bid farewell to Mr. Jasper F. Greer and family, who have gone to Florida, and will henceforth make tlieir home in that sunny clime. Mr. Greer’s health for the last year so lias been such 03 to prevent his doing business. Inflammatory rheumatism ha? afflicted ldm, aud would yield to no reme dies in the city. During a trip to Flor.da he found that the waters of Green Cove Springs gave him immediate relief, and so pleased was ho with the country that he made arrangements to go there aud live. Mr. Greer will henceforth be found at the Riverside House at Green Cove Springs, a hotel he has now opened and will keep open all the year round. These springs are already famous, and the water has a wide-spread reputation as a cure for rheumatism, neuralgia, nervous prostra tion and kidney diseases. The baths are beautifully arranged, and the hotel stands upon the margin of the St. John’s river, only two hours’ ride from Jacksonville. Col. Greer has been for many years an lioDorcd citizen of Macon, well known in all circles. We cheerfully recommend him as a gentleman worthy of all confi dence, and trust that not only health but wealth may be found in the limpid waters by whose side he has cast his lot. Brunswick Advertiser: The incom ing crop of oranges and olives on St. Si mon’s island will be very poor this fall. Out of two hundred and fifty orange trees in Col. Shadmau’s grove, there’arc not a dozen in full bearing. The ratio in the olive orchard is probably abont the same. Colonel S. thinks, however, that the next year will he very favorable to tlie growth of oranges, provided the seasons for the uext sixty days are suitable. He has learned tiiat the hearing wood of one sea son is the growth of the year before, and tiiat this year’s growth is simply splendid. Col. S. attributes the almost eutirc failure of this year’s crop of oranges to the re sult of a few days of very cold weather the coast and islands experienced last fall, the iast year’s wood being very seri ously injured during this unfavorable spell of weather.

During the iast. mniiUi, the Man on the Monument has lived in a halo of burniifg gunpowder. As usual, last night.when the signal was given, a stream of people wended their way to the Court House, and filing in soon filled up the Superior Court room. The announcement, however, bad gone forth days before that Colonels Nesbit and Blount, the former a' presidential elector and the latter our congressional candidate, would speak upon the issues of the day as presented to the people of the United States, and considering the excitement nearer home, the large crowd present was a great compliment to both gentlemen. Colonel Nesbit was first introduced, and spoke for a quarter of an hoar. His speech was in part a reply to the late effort of Roscoe Conkling. He urged upon the people the sacredness of the cbnstitu- tion, and warned the youth of the country against becoming so accustomed to hearing of the frauds of political life as to look upon them with less loathing than they deserved. There are now two parties only in the land—iu the words of Senator Hill, “the party of peace and the party of strife.” A Republican Senator (Conkling) had re cently openly taken the opposite ground, asserting that there could be no peace or prosperity for the country, except in the supremacy of tho Republican party; that should tlie Democrats and the South come iuto power, peace and prosperity would be dead. The South's history was the best answer to that charge. She has been the best friend of the constitution since its adoption, and the most conservative ele ment in the government. All conseiva- tive measures that have been adopted, have originated in.the South. The very liberty of the country was born h6re. While Massachusetts was quar reling with the mother country, Patrick Henry was denouncing. While the North hesitated, the South declared the people free. While the leading men of the North stood back, lacking nerve to speak, Richard Henry Lee stepped forward and declared the sentiments of the people, It was a Southern man who wrote the Declaration of Independence. While New York was surrounded and the forces of the Union were paralyzed, here in the Carolines, the Georgia and Carolina mil itia were heating back the invaders. All down the history of the South was it proved to he true. The wars that followed were conducted by Southern men under Southern leaders, and ended on Southern soil. Her annies conquered at New Or leans, stormed Buena Yista and first. en tered the halls of the Montezumas; and it was a Southern man—Decatur—who swept the Mediterranean Sea of the Algerian brigantines, and accomplished that which Europe bad attempted in vain for three hundred years. AU. that magnificent stretch of country gained from Mexico, and iaigcr than the thirteen original States was won by Southern arms. Iu Congress her attitude had been the seme. Commodore Mauiy,that grand old man, was a Southerner. His glory could not be wrested from )iim. It was.he who seized’tbe winds, and sent the fleets to wards every quauer; he who mapped out the sea until a school boy could under stand its workings, and ho who surveyed its floor, and told the world whqre the ca ble must be laid. And yet Mr. Conkling says that strife will follow, and prosperity be dead, if the South gains place; he, and the Republican orators, have denounced us for fifteen years. The time is coming, let us hope, when all this shall end, and peace shall prevail. God forbid that the patience we have exercised, and the patriotism that has moved us, shall have been in vain. The duties of the hour are eternal vigi lance and resistance. The Democratic party is the only home of an honest man. Surveying the political field, the speaker referred to the leaders now offered to tlie people. Arthur, he said, had been spewed from the mouth of the Republican party, and Garfield, while a skilled politician and tactician, lacked truth and integrity. He reviewed some or the principal evils of the latter’s career, including his-record as a member of the Louisiana visiting board and his subsequent acts in ^Congress. English was a leader, pure, honest, true, faithful and conservative. Upon the men tion of Haucock’s name there was loud and enthusiastic applause. The eu logy over that distinguished gentleman was veiy beautiful and eloquent. Colonel Nesbit referred briefly and touchingly to the disruption in Georgia, saying that however the people may be divided now, the fight in November would "find them side by side. Col. J. II. Blount then took the stand, aud gave a brief history of tho issues now before tho people of tlie United States, among which were the tariff, the evils of which be illustrated by showing the taxes paid upon various articles familiar to the trade, and by furnishing figures showing the sections favored and oppressed. Ho described tlie great land frauds, for which tho Republican party is responsible— frauds by which 200,000,000 acres of tynd were donated to corporations, an amount thirteen times as large as the total acreage of Georgia. Then followed a close de scription of the Credit Mobiljer fraud aud Garfield’s connection with it, and the proofs by which his crime was laid hare. Colonel Blount paid a glowing tribute to General Hancock, describing him as tlie Incarnation of Saxon liberty which had descended to us through tlie ages. O wing to the lateness of the hour, he did not deliver his full address. Or old or young, or grave or gray, Those who now let Jtlieir teeth decay,' With breath we can’t eudure;.

Some thirty to forty years ago there was much enthusiasm iu Georgia over the raising of the Morns Multicavlis for the feeding of the silkworm. This peculiar species of lire mulberry- tree was culti vated in nearly every garden spot about Macon, aud many silkworms were nur tured in their luxuriant foliage. So nu merous were the cocoons that they were used as playthings by the children. The rich, glossy threads of the cocoons were never utilized to any extent; probably because our people were too much en grossed in the vast acres of the • cotton plant. We are glad to notice that the raising ol the silkworm is, after the lapse of so many years, again revived, and that the manufacture of silk cloth is a success. Through Captain Edwards, of Dodge couuty, we are presented with a handsome handkerchief of silk cut from a piece of twenty yards length, made by Mrs. Wright, of the same couuty; and further to her credit, she raised the trees, attended the worms, and wove the silk into the cloth.

London, October 2.—A dispatch from Rome says: Representatives of the sur vivors of the country’s battles started for Caprera aboard the tug boat iu which General Garibaldi was to embark for Genoa. Garibaldi, iu spite of the urgent advice ot his best friends, is determined to carry out his iutention, and will probably leave Caprera to-morrow and arrive at Genoa on Sunday. The situation is rife with the most serious possibilities. There is no doubt but that General Garibaldi will be received on landing by the extreme radicals of Genoa in all their strength; aud should he, as some think likely, go at their head to the prefecture or to the prison aud demand the release of Mayor Cariseio, we shall probably have such au affair as that of Aspramonte over again; for Premie-; Cairoli, bitter as it may be to him to act rigorously against his old leader, will faith!oily do his duty, and cause the laws to l>o 1 eepocted.
