G E<»ft<»l .V ST ATE UOKTIC l L Tilt AI. SOCIETY. Seventeenth Annual Session. The Seventeenth Annual Session ami exhibition of fruits,plants ami vegetables will be held at Home, Ga„ Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, August the 3rd, 4th and sth. 1802. The past annual meetings have been numerously attended and the exhibitions of fruits and veg etables practically demonstrated the vast resources of Georgia as a producing State. The impetus given to fruit culture and horti cultural taste through the lutln ence of the labors of this Asso ciation are visible throughout the whole Commonwealth. The forth coming session,it is confidently expected, will be one of the most interesting and useful ever held by the Society. All horticulturists, fruit grow ers, progressive agriculturists, ami especially the ladies of Geor gia, are earnestly and cordially invited to attend and send such articles for exhibition as will make the display of Georgia grown fruits, flowers and vegetables creditable to the skill and prog ress of its people. It is earnestly hoped that there will be a lull attendance of mem bers from every section of the State, that concentiated informa tion and experience from fruit growers may be obtained, thus aiding the Society to perfect the several catalogues of fruits and vegetables adapted to each geo graphical division. r lhese cata logues are now tlie recognized re liable guides of the fruit growers of Georgia, aud have had a most wonderful influence in* develop ing its fruit-growing interests. Tlie Society was organized in 1876 by a few public-spirited citi zens who have faithfully labored since to promote the fruit-grow ing industry of Georgia and aid , in the higher education of its peo pie. They have paid with their purse and person, not only freely giving their labor, but paying for the publication of its proceed ings, which have been distributed free of charge wherever they could serve the aims of the Socie ty. The only revenue of the So ciety is derived from the annual membership fees, and, as this is limited, the Society is hampered in its scope. We need the co-op eration of every progressive citi zen of Georgia. If you cannot attend the session of tlie Society, aid it by becoming a member and enable it to enlarge its sphere of usefulness. The past work of the Society has caused the wonderful devel opment of the fruit-growing in dustry, which of late has given several sections of the State a most rapid increase in its land values, as well as in an intelligent class of settlers from other States. You can still further aid in this good cause by coming to Home, affiliate with the Society and ena ble it to show in a practical way that the fruit and vegetable pro ducing resources of Georgia are second to none and superior to those of many less favored sec tions of the United States. The citizens of Rome are alive to tb*>importance of the forth coming session and will give you a hospitable welcome. The Express Companies with their usual liberality and inter est evinced in the success of the Society, will carry free of charge all packages of fruits, flowers and vegetables intended for the exhi bition. Packages should be ad dressed as foilows: “GEO. H. MILLER, Eome.Ga., for State Horticultural Society,” and the name of sender plainly marked on the package. All articles for the exhibition should be sent to reach the hall on Wednesday, August the 3rd, not later than 10 o’clock a. m. A full list of varieties should also be sent with the ar ticles contributed, that a full re port may be made by the Socie- j ty. | Hotel rates have been reduced to The “Armstrong Hotel” will be the headquarters of the Socie ty Application for membership ' must be made to the undersigned j before July the loth, and further , information will be given ns re gards reduced rates of faro by the | railroads.

General Benjamin Franklin Butler of Boston is badly dis credited as u politician, but no body questions his ability as a constitutional lawyer. The Re public is, therefore, glad to know that General Butler substantially holds the views which it express ed yesterday to the effect that the citizens of Pennsylvania whoso town was invaded by an armed force from Illinois and New York on Wednesday last wore loyally right iu repelling; the invasion by force, and that botli the Pinker ton invaders and those who or ganized, incited and abetted them are liable to indictment and se vere punishment. To a reporter in Boston on Fri day, General Butler gave his j opinion on the Pinkerton exploit, at Homestead, as follows: “Carnegie, as everybody else, I has the right to protect his prop- 1 erty from violence or destruction. Workingmen have the right to re j fuse to work for him except upon terms to which they agree. Nei ther ought to pursue these rights 1 except by the process of law. i l have the right to defend my property, but iu so doing I have no. right to incite or commit breaches of tho public peace. Pinkerton’s body of cutthroats should be disbanded by law if the lesson they got at Homestead will not disband them. No rail roads subject to interstate com merce regulation should be al lowed to bring them from one State to another under the sever est penalties. The existence of such an organization under any form or pretext should be made feloneous. I further, as a lawyer, believe fully that those having charge of the Carnegie Company and or ganizing this riotous invasion could be indicted and punished with great severity under the present law for conspiracy to break the peace and commit mur der; and I hope they may bo if there is auy law or justice in Pennsylvania not overshadowed and controlled by political con siderations.—St. Louis Republic.

I recommend it to suffering hu manity. Yours, J. PoTHDAMEK. A northern general, famous as a fighter was at a regimental reunion some time ago and was expected to propose a toast to the regiment. He made a rambling but highly eulogistic speech, and concluded by saying: “Here’s to the gallant One Hun dred and Twenty-Sixth New York the last to reach the field, and the first to leave it.” He sat down amid shouts of laughter, and then seeing that ho had made some mistako, he un dertook to rectify it. “Gentlemen,” ho said, “you must forgive my slip of the tongue! The toast I wished to propose, was. ‘Here’s to tho gal lant One Hundred and Twenty- Sixth New York, equal to none.” There was another burst of laughter, and the general rose for the third time,but his words were lost in general merriment, and the toast was honored as he had already proposed it.—Now York Recorder. “I was prostrated with a severe ! bilious complaint,” writes Erastus ! Southworth, of Bath, Me. “After ; yainly trying a number of reme dies, I was finally induced to take Ayer’s Pills. I had scarcely taken two boxes when I was completely cured.” The St. Johns fire caused a loss of $25,000,000 and made 10,000 people homeless. A beautiful head of hair is the pride of woman.
