The Freight Tariff ou Cotton froin HairklnsrlUc. , Hawkinsville. it seems, is another victim of thu now celebrated “Circular Number 10,” of the Railroad Commis sion, the freight on cotton shipped from that point to Savannah having boen ad vanced from $1 50 to $2 65 per bale. The last issue of thu Dispatch de nounces the Railroad Commissoin in terms most severe, and publishes the proceedings or a sort of indignation meeting held by the cotton buyers and business men of Hawkinsville, at which it was resolved and declared that thu adrance should not be sub mitted to "as long as there is water in the Ocmutgce and boats to transport tbo cotton to Savannah." A committee of business men were accordingly ap pointed to secure boats for the trans portation of cotton, and were authoriz ed to guarantee full loitls; Wc admire tho pluck of the liusit css men of llawkinaville, and wish them success in their effort to flank tho Railroad Commission, or rather, to se cure transportation for their cotton at much more reasonable rates than the; are now compelled Jo pay; but it docs not appear to us ’that the s'ep they propose to tal^o will prove a practical success, owing to the same difficulties that have been inet by the business men of Albany whenever they have un dertaken to ship their cotton down our river. Only very small boats can corno up to Albany, and wo imagine that the business men uf Hawkinsville will have the same disadvantage to con tend with in the outset. Thon the de lay in shipping by our river route was a great draw-back, which our friends in Hawkinsville will also have to en counter. When our river is cleaned out so that boats drawing from three to four feet of water, when loaded, can be used, then this mode of transporting cotton or other freight can be made practicable, but not before. And so it stands with the cotton N shippers at Hawkinsville—their river cannot ac commodate such boats as would be necessary to establish ready and rclia ble transportation. At present Albany is not as badly sit uated in regard to freight on cotton as some of her neighbors seem to be, but we have been through the same troub les that the business men of Hawkins- villo are now passing through. The Railroad Commission having refused to allow the B. &'A. Railroad to advance their rates on cotton from Albany so as to form spool with the other roads leading from this point, our cotton shippers can now use that line exclu sively, or else force the Central and S. F. A W. to bring their rates down to more satisfactory figures, to get any part of the business. Tho business men of Albany worked hard and spent money to get the B. & A. Railroad here, and furnish perhaps fully nine-tenths of the cotton shipped over the entire line. They are therefore entitled to some benefit from it, and this season, thanks to the Railroad Commission, they are going to get it The soiree given by Modena's bard at Tiffs hall last night, was a moat enjoyable allair. The music was splen did. The gathering was not large, but there were just enough couples on the floor to make it pleasant To the ravish ing Brains of Modena’s ochestra the gay terpsichoreans kept time until the we ama’ hoar* were creeping on.

The first firo States show a combined in- crease of 62, while the other five show a decrease of 54. Last Thursday the New York mar ket was very excited, and the tales reached amr'y 200,000 bales, being the largest business since April.

The colored Baptist church of this city held baptismal services last Sunday afternoon, at the river just below Tift’s bridge. It was given out and pretty well circulated on the streets Saturday that some fifteen or twenty converts, would seek to have their sins washed away by immersion in the waters of the Flint, Sunday afternoon. Before the appointed hour large numbers were seen wending their way to the river side. When the services commenc 'd there were not less than five hundred people looking on from the banks. Tift’s bridge was thronged with those, trying to get a view of the baptising. Fifteen women, one man and a little boy were baptised. We are a little ikeplical regarding the religion of most colored people, and our faith in their incerity was not strengthened by the antics cut up by the majority of those baptised yesterday. The boy, a little fel >ow not over e:ght years old, ami who couldn’t til whether his soul was in his head or In els, ih nking it necessary for him to “follow suit,’’ reired around considerably.

A Street Sprinkler.' One of thu greatest, nay, the most crying need of the city of Albany just now is a street sprinkler. It is doubt less tho dustiest town to-diy in Atncr- ics, and, unless the “signs of the weath er” arc very deceiving,'it will he dusti er still to'-morrow. What we need is one good sprinkler to be kept at work principally on Broad and Washington streets, in toe heart or business por tion of the city, where the dust is sti fling. At this season of the year, when there are so many cotton Wagons, drays and other vehicles on the streets dur ing the business part of the day, the whole face of the earth is soon ground up into dost, which rises in dense clouds behind everything that moves. It is Impossible for our merchants to keep their stores clean, and such good* as can be injured by dust cannot he displayed to advantage, hut must be kept covered and hidden from view. One street sprinkler kept constantly at work in the business portion uf the city would rid our people of a great nuisance, and would cost tlie city but little.

Wesr ton, and Mr. Walter Hill, wo boarded tho Brunswick train for Sumner. Worth county, to attend a big barbecue and political discussion at that place. Capt. Taylor, that prince of clever conduc tors, handled ua right side up with care, and landed our party on time, safely at their destination. We found the thrifty little vibage -of Sumner alive to the importance of the occasion.' Tho good people of Worth were fast assembling in large numbers. Politics was tho all absorbing question. The store* all closed aoon after our arrival, and polit ical opinions were the principal stock in trade for tho day. Bnt our friend, Jesse Weston, talked cotton from alpha to omega, and if there was aplan- tor present he didn't buzz, we don’t know it Ten o'clock the discussion began. Col. J. H. Spence, was the first speaker, and he put in some heavy licks for Hancock, Colquitt, Turner aod Lane. Said long as only Democrats were in the field, he was an Independent candi date for Congress, but now since the Republicans had organized, and put oat a man in the Second District, he was in favor of solid Democratic ranks, and had fallen into line to battle for the regular nominee, H. G. Turner. Mr. Spence’s speech was short and to the point Gen. Henry Morgan was next intro duced, though the introduction was only for the sake of formality, as his audience knew him. He was for Han cock, English, Norwood, Turner, and Westbrook. General Morgan >* forcible stump speaker, and makes his assertions in a manner that carries the conviction of truth to his hearers. He made things lively in Joe Brown’s camp. He said that Colquitt was his personal friend, but that did not pre vent him from condemning Colquitt’s faults; that he (the speake*-) was for measures not men, and that when party principles were made subservient to the advancement of personal preferences the Democratic party of Georgia was in aonost deplorable condition. The Gen - oral spoke for about 40 minutes with telling effect. Judge W. T. Jones followed for Gov? Colquitt and the Democratic nom- nees, national and local. Judge Jones knew just where to touch to secure the confidence and win the undivided at tention of his audience, whom he hand led in admirable style. He devoted the most of his time in answering the charges against Colquitt. Like a skill ful general, he first raised an enthusi asm for his cause anil then attacked the enemy. Judge Jones is a graceful, earnest speaker and ready debitor, After speaking an hour dinner was an nounced and a recess taken. The din ner was just immense, and consisted of all the substantial and delicacies that could tempt the fastidious pklste of the epicurean. Our party are under spec ial obligations to Mr. Alford, Messrs. S tinner, Graves, and others, for their many considerate attentions. That whole-souled, hospitable gentleman, Captain Alford, is a team within himself. The amiable and thrifty house-wives of old Worth arc the peers of any in the State. After dinner Judge Jones was again called to the stand, and spoke for one hour and a-half, in which time he szc- ceedcd in making a number of new friends for Colquitt and Joe Brown, He insist d upon the party in the 10th Senatorial District standing by the color-bearer W. L. Lane, and didn’t be lieve any true Democrat would fail to give Mr. Lane his hearty support At six o'clock P. M., the Albany bound train, commanded by Mr. Wm Miner, than whom there is no more ef ficient conductor and urbane gentle man, picked up ourself and friends and sped homeward with us. We shall not soon lorget the day we spent at Sumner. It was pleasant and profitable. The Conntj- Rl To-day, A dollar and fifty cent’s worth of hsnd-bilU promulgating the following call woro a distributcd by some of the eading spirits in the Republican party in this city on Saturday last, and in re sponse thereto some seventy-five or eighty -colored men and Postmaster Arnold assembled in the Courthouse to-day: REPUBLICAN KALT.T. A Convention of the Republicans of Dougherty county will he held at the Courthouse, in Albany, on Saturday, September 18:1:, at-11 o’clock for tlie purpose or nominating a candi date for the Legislature, and transac tion of any other business. By order of Chairman Executive Coe. The meeting was called to order by Howard Bunts, who wss elected to pre side over the meeting. The friends of Ishmael Lonofl and John Burnett, the two prominent can didates for nomination, clashed as soon as tho Convention was organized, over the manner in which the nomination should be made. Tho friends of one moved for a committee of three from each militia district to suggest a Suita ble candidate, whilst those of tho other contended for a nomination hy rising vote in open Convention. Those favor ing the latter mode of selecting a can didate finally carried their point John Burnett was placed in nomina tion by Jack Outlaw. Dr. Arnold next placed the name of Ishmael Lonon be fore the convention, and concluded bis speech with a motion t > nominate him by acclamation. The motion was promptly seconded, and was put to the house by the chairman. Here cries of “Everybody stand up” and “Everybidy ait down” drowned the voice the chair man so that he could not make himself beard in announcing his decision upon the rote. Partial order was finally re stored, but when the chair announced the motijn to nominate Ishsmel Lonon by acclamation “carried,” the usual Re publican conventiotf row opened np in short order. Twenty-five or thiity men took the floor and tried to make themselves heard at the same rime. Jack Outlaw seemed to have the best lungs in the house, and could be heard above all the others denouncing the “trick” that had been played by the friends of Ishmael Lonon, and declar ing that Burnett would run as an Inde pendent candidate. The chairman tried in vain to restore order, and when our reporter’s nerves gave way and he sought the open air, the row was in full blast PERSONAL. Hon. GuOavus J. 0 r, State School Comini l oner, was registered at the Barnes House last evening. Dr. VV. N.

I have bad thirty-seven stolen out of forty that I was trying to raise for my own benefit. I have three left, winch I propose to raise. I shall watch them all the time, and shall shoot the first man who at tempts to take them. If I kill him, which I hope I may, I am prepared to take tlie consequences.” How to get Sick. Expose yourself day and night, eat oo much without exercise; work too hard without rest; doctor all the time; take all the vile nostrums advertised; and then you will want to know Is the Clement Attachment a Fraud t We have received numerous letters from onr leaders, at different rimes, asking us to tell them something about the reliability of the clement attach ment In response to these enquiries we give the following from the New York Cotton : A Wilmington, (N. C.) correspon dent who is evidently somewhat an noyed at “Carder’s” intimations, in last weeks Cotton, that the Clement attach-' nient is something o' a humbug, sends us a clipping from the Wilmington Post, in reference to a Clement factory loeated at Windsor, Bertie county in that State. The factory contains 612 spindles snd bis two Clement attach ment machines, which operate upon the seed cotton just as it is brought from the fields, converting it into yarns, without the previous process of ginning. Tho capacity ef the mill is to manipu late about 1,500 pounds of seed cotton per day, the labor required beipg four teen operatives, with a likelihood that that number wilt be somewhat reduced. The am< unt of capital invested in the enterprise is about 612,000. The con sumption of 1,000 | ounds of seed cot ton per day, at 3 cents a ponnJ, is 630; the expense :nr skilled labor—engineer, fireman, etc.—fuel operatives, and in cidentals, $12 10: total, |4210 the pro duct of the mill is 3000 pounds of yarn, at 20 cents $60; twenty two bushels cotton seed, at 10 cents, 62.20; waste, etc.. 62; total, 63430, which leaves a net profit of 612.10 on the day’s work. The interest on capital and insurance and wear on machinery is not included in the above. By operating tke entire year, tho profits, after paying all ex penses, will considerably exceed 50 per centum on the original investment Several other factories of this kind, using the Clement attachment, are soon to be built in North Carolina.
