The following communication, head ed as above, appears in the Americus Republican: In the issue of the Republican of Saturday the 4in inst., and also Friday the 10th, a piece over the signature of “Y,” reflected very harshly on “X,” the correspondent of the AlbanxNkws.

Editors: Please allow me to notice briefly communication in your last issue, head ed, “Another Election in Baker,” and signed “Democrat.” : Tho-colored people, in conventioMt- scinbled, 4th inst., did not “nominate’’ Col. S. P. Davis, they simply endorsed him as their choice of candidates for the Senate ; and resolved to give him their supporLin the event he decided to oppose Mr. Hawes. This endorsement was preceded by a full understanding on tbe part of the colored people that Col. DaTis was a good Democrat; and after adjournment of the meeting the fact was again and again publicly announced on the streets of'Newton. Tba disturbing element in this movement of Baker county col- ored rotors was.ai. untimely expression of their confidence in Col. Davis, and their willingness to trust their rights and their interests in his hands. “Dem ocrat” may be too fastidious to receive even an endorsement by the “negroes’ but wouldn’t he work like tho D—1 to get their Totes, were ho a candidate V In the good old times of honest Democ racy consistency Was a jewel. Again, opposition to the nominee of so-called election, 27th ult., by Col. Davie, or hie.frienda, would not make him, or them, in any sense, “Disorgan- ixers.” . " V» .When there is nq organization there can be no “disorgariizer’’; and no or ganization has ring binding force un less based upou truth and held togeth er by honor and -gbod faith. We do not propose to enter into par ticulars disscriptive of the disgraceful scenes in the Courthouse and around the ballot-box ip Newton on the 27th ult; but if “Democrat” can truthfully say that the so called election on that day w'as conducted J'airly, honorably, honestly, and that its results are bind ing upou the people of Baker, then, in the language of the Ep s scopal prayer hook, wo exclaim flora the* depths of our heart, “From all such good Lord deliver us !” Sioma.

On. it’s shelves there are more than two thousand volumes, embracing works of history, fiction, biography, science, poe try, theology; in fseL covering the en tire range of literature. Daring the past year a .largo number of choice hoiks have been added, and the collec tion odw embraces many of: the best standard and popular works of the day. On it’s tables are to be found the lead ing periodicals of the day; and in shorL the Library offers to our citizens a vast fund of instruction, entertainment and usefulness. It lias been of great benefit to Alba ny. It has had a tendency to energize and elevate the literary tone of the community, and has largely increased the taste fur leading; among onr citi zens. The best evidence of itB popu larity and usefulness is found in the large number of books tha* are taken from it and read each quarter, as sfcown by the record of the Librarian. Indeed, the Library has become almost a necebary' luxury to our people, and Its .loan wAuld be severely felt by the community. -gMi present successful And gratifying condition has been at tained without any direct appeal to the liberality of the citizens of Albany. For s long time U was sustained solely b* the d^ilp ofjtkqtgianlberihip and by a few small private contributions. Last fall a fair was given which netted the Ligrary a good sum, and which enabled to get its first addition of new books. This fair was made up of contributions almostsolely from abroad, altbohgb our own peopft.-jfcare the enterprise a gen- crons patronage. There have been giv en also,- a few entertainments, from which the Library has netted small omonnts. In all these, however,there has been an eflort on tbe part of the Libra ry to give value received for the aid ex tended iL and wc believe that it can be truly said that it’s efforts have not been vain. We would not be understood as failing to appreciate the liberality of the citizens- of Albany, in always giving their’ support to any enterprise under taken for the Librar/7 hut this fact is merely mentioned to- show that the people have not "been besieged with ap- perls for. help. But, although much has been done for the Library, yet there is a vast deal more to bn accom plished. There are hundreds of books that ought to be purchased; many new and standard books and periodicals that are essential to keep the.LiDrary fully up to the times, and render it the valu able and-interesting institution we so much desire it to be. It has been many months since new hooka were booghL The public demand, as well DS the orig- nal purpose of the association tc keep the Xibrery at all times supplied with the freshest and best current literature, and make it a complete and model in stitution of its kind, call for the addition of more books. Tho Directory are ex-, ceedingly anxious at once to purchase a choice selection, and to place at the service of the reading public of Albany, as some, at least, of the many excellent and entertaining works we hare not heretofore been able to buy. This, we feel is an imperative necessity if* we would retain the good already done, and secure some of the vast benefits that will flow in the future from this moat excellent institution. But the Library is without the funds necessary ior this purpose. It’s only source of income is from the dues and fines from its membership. These are not more than sufficient to meet it s current expenses, which have been reduced to the lowest limiL We need money, and for some time the Directors have considered the methods best calculated to raise the necessary funds. The respective mer its of shows, sappers, festivals, etc, have been duly considered, but after’ mature deliberation, it has been decid ed that a direct appeal to tbe liberality of our citizens is the best means of jmp advertisements. com p]i s hing the desired ends. In doing this we do notbelive that we have ofar- shot .the mark in our estimate of the public spirit and generosity of oar people. They have never been lag gards in a work so noble and commend able. They have always shown a pride and liberality in giving aid to any enterprise calculated to advance the.in- terests of Albany.:- And it ~ia with a' perfect confidence ia. their generoua spirit that we hava decided to make this appeal.

Then the country was in tho throe* of reconstruc tion so-called,, and newspaper life was very different from the difficulties which environ it now.

But in it all, the Nxws was born and reared to no mean stature. In my struggle I was assisted by one whose hand is cold in death, but in whose breast as noble a heart beat as In any that live to-day— John V. Cargill, Esq. And by another, who I aee is stall connected with tbe News, Mr. Thomas P. Cody. To their assistance I owe much of the success 1 attained. Therefore, you can exense the attachment that 1 still feel for my old friend the Albany News. I have watched with eagerness through all the clanges which thirteen years have broughL I have rejoiced in its prosper ity and sympathized with it m every depression that has come over it. My connection with it was but one short ytar. It has fallen into other and better hands, and I. rejoice at iL My attachment for tbe people of Albany has never wavered, and the friends who stood by me in those days of trial and toil are not and never can be forgotten. I rejoice that two old frienda have met, and linked destinies one with tbe other—I mean the Albany News and Henry M. McIntosh. In 1872 I went to Quitman, Ga, and there I met Mr. McIntosh and our ‘riendahip began. The peculiar relations that I sustained to the cemmuninity and the family of which he ia an honored member, begat a stronger friendship that would have otherwise existed, perhaps^: These relations were only increased when shadows fell across the threshold of his home, and I was admitted into the most intimate sorrows that cluster around the departure of a loved one. Again, when worth and manliness had won affection and loveliness, I stood in the midst and pronounced the word that made tho twain one. All of these associations nave produced a friendship that time cannot efface, and this occa sion has awakened them again to fresh life. I have watched with no small amount of solicitude Mr. McIntosh's editorial career, and have rejoiced in his triumphs.' While differing with him on many questions I still admire his bold and vigorous style and predict for him a bright future in his chosen field. Hence I rejoice that two of my old friends have joined hands, and shall watch with eagerness their course through tbe coming years. Mr. F. Y.

She is capable of securing all of her needs with the proper outlay of public spirit aud energy. She needs a city park. V She needs a city clock. Nearly every city in the State has one, and why not Albany ? She is able. She needs a musical club to cultivate and encourage her music tatauL She needs a reading club to encour- sge taste for a high order of literature among her young ladies and gentlemen; and it could easily be established in connection with her Library. She needs a debating club to capaci tate her young men; for .Mag active citizens, ready and competent r to think and act for themselves on all questions of public interest, anff if necessary to speak for others. She needs a bank and needs it bad. Without one she is a cripple. She is in sad need ofa fire alarm bell. Should a .fire break out at night the night watchman would havo to go around aud wake up the firemen, or Split his throat yelling to arouse the oearest neighbors 1ft* Only Dally In tbe Cotton Belt.

To this end wc make our appeal. During the next week a Committee of the Directors will call on our citi zens and solicit contributions of money for the Library.
