*37 A wee Ily 6 pin ion THE WEEKLY OPINION, ay w. i, scedoos ahd j. b. pomble. SATURDAY MOUkTnO;;:i;;BEIT. 2T Ur Thnt miserable thing oftbo I’ast, the fag end of the Democratic, Loeofoco, Nullification party, which haa twice assay. Cd to ruin when It could no longer rule, and which has conspired to keep the coun. tjy In a state of unrest ami peril for the last ten years—now seeks representation in and control of the State Constitutional Convention, This Is its last and only hope of prolonging Its own wretched existence, It will have candidates In the field; candi dates professing In favor of Reconstruction, but who will embrace the very first oppor tunity of betraying trust, in order to servo the ghost of the dead Party. Let the people beware of these wolves in cheep’s clothing. 1ST Our exchanges from Pennsylvania, Ohio, and other States that hold elections Cntho second Tuesday of October, convince <U that the great Union Republican party 3s determined to win now honors when the day of trial comes. Indeed, an unparalleled Victory Is not questioned. Tho glorious example set in our sister States, of vigil ance and untiring energy In tho conduct of an important campaign, should Incite tho Union Republicans of Georgia, and of the ■whole South, to Increased aotivity. There remains but a short time for organization, yet that time Is ample, if all true Republi cans will engage in tho work. He who dallies NOW is a dastard—a time-sener 1 Ho who is not for us actively, honestly and out-spoken in favor of the party organiza tion that saved the country in tho hour of her greatest peril, is against tho country, in efleet, In this great extremity I We need working men now—not trimmers and dodgers 1 Vigilance should bo the motto. Cotton Market Items.—Tho demand ■was a little better in our market yesterday, hut therowas no changelnprices—20cents Ibr Northern mldllngs.—Celumlmt Enqui rer, lOtll. Cotton at Montgomery.—Received the past week, ending on tho 14th inst., 1,149 talcs: total receipts 1,750: stock on hand September 1st COO; shipped past week 744; total shipments 1,449; stock on hand Sep tember 14th, 801. The Cotton Supply Association of Great Britain is busily at work encouraging Egypt, India and South America to culti vate cotton. It alms to have half a dozen nations underbidding each other in tho IngUsh market for tho eale of their row material, and meanwhile to export to nil climes British manufactures—a suicidal trade sure to enrich England and to im- ■poverlsh her customers. Battist History.—Tho Augusta Re publican announces that a new and en larged edition of the “History of Georgia Baptists" will be published as soon as sub scriptions for ono thousand can be secured, It will be sold at from *2 to *2 50 pcrcopy, Brethren and friends are respectfully re quested to procure subscribers, and for ward lints to Rev. J. H. Campbell, Thom- asvlllc. The sessions of Associations will be favorable occasions for attending to tills work. tST“Northern Radicals” or “Southern Renegades." These aro favorite epithets In the mouths of those who Imagine billings gate a more forcible weapon than com mon sense argument. It would be just ns easy to write, and print, the words," Union Republicans;" and It certainly would bo more dignified. Epithets and slang aro tho weapons of tho blackguard. Editors should avoid such a modo of warfare. Decidedly New Ybraisn.—A tender hearted New York youth of seventeen, named James Woods, was arrested last Saturday week while passing off a piece of brown paper on a wretched blind man In payment for some tobacco. Tho lngenloua James had omitted to givo the scrap a proper “fed” by steeping It In beer, but- tet, perspiration, and other preparatory fluids. Gen. Rook* A. Pbtob Ckbtainly a Radical.—The Petersburg Index says: “Tho General avows hit opinion openly, and there aro In this city twenty rcspccta- blo witnesses to tho fact that Up 1ms long since endorsed the Congressional action In reference to tho South; wo mean endorsed, not accepted.” Wo had considered Mr. Willing ham of tho LaGrango Reporter, Incapable of descending to tho nso of language, such as Is employed In Ills last issue, in referring to our notice of tho proposed visit of Judge Kelly. We Bad supposed him ca pable of appreciating tho dignity of en lightened journalism. Columbus Battist Association.—This religious body meets with the Mount Zion Church, (a short distance to tho left of tlio llamtlton road,) some six miles from Co lumbus to-day. Tlie missionary sermon will be preached on Sunday by Dr. J. II. DeVotle, of Columbus. Rev. C. C. Wills Is Moderator of the Association. Gen. Gbant and Mu. Chandler.—It is understood tlmt Mr. Chandler, tho Assist ant Secretary of tho Treasury, will cer tainly resign. It is exceeding doubtful If Gen. Grant will recommend a new trial for Fitz John Porter, there being no precedent or law for it. ‘i i’tl'» — r 'Sl A white man named Mulholland, and a negro, namo not given, aro candi dates for" the Convention ia Wchstci county- _ . ‘ Personal.—Mr. J. J. Nelson, Treasurer of the Wills Valey Railroad, Is lying very 111 at Trenton, In the “State of Dade.” THE STATE COHVEBTIOH—WHO SHOULD BE DELEGATES. Tho election for delegates to tho State Constitutional Convention takes place wltlilu the next month. That Convention will constitute the most Important epoch In the political history of Georgia. It will ho tho supremo power In the State, brought Into being for tho purposo of altering and amending her Organic Law. What Isdono In that Convention, can bo undone only by another and similar one; and these do not assemble, In tho ordinary course of events. It will bo referred to that Convention whether the State shall have a Republican form of Government; whethor the require ments of Congress shall be complied with; and therefore, whether Georgia shall re sume her former place In tlie Union, enti tled to all Its rights and privileges; or whether, through evasion of the terms prescribed, we shall be kept out of the Union, and eontinuod In a chaotic state. The character and pertonel of tills Com vention, Is a subject, therefore, of great con sideration. We should know precisely where men stand before entrusting them with this extraordinary power. Candidates whose position Is at all doubtful, should be discarded. This Is no time for equivoca tion. There are but two parties—but two sides to this question. No man can run with both. lie must take bold and decided ground pro or con; and 1m who will not do tills, and whose acta do not conform to his professions, can be trusted by neither party. Tho Democratic States Rights par- tynndits leaders, oppose Reconstruction under the Sherman Act. Tho Union Re publican Party advocate Reconstruction under that Act. Both these parties will have their candidates in tlie field; whilst not a few milk and cider men, wlio have one face for Reconstruction and anotherfor tlio resurrection of defunct Issues, will oq- deavor to slip Into tho Convention without endorsing or opposing the principles in volved in the Reconstruction movement. Let us, therefore, look well to this point, We have more to fear from treachery In the Convention, than inall else. THE BUSIHE8B SEASON. The past six months has been a season of almost unparalleled stagnation. Two years of famine, following close upon a war, which, fhr devastation and disorganization of Industrial resources, was never equalled in any country, could but result In the ut ter prostration of business. Tho majority of our people were in debt at the closo of tho year 1800. These debts, contracted upon tho faith of tho growing crops of 1806, and those crops falling, are atUl un paid; and to these have been superadded tlm debts of 1807, contracted through ne cessity. Thus we begin the business sea son of tho present year with the debts of the two previous years hanging over us, and with no means of paying oxcept as wo realize upon tho crops of tho present year. Under these circumstances, business wlU open late. The necessities of the planters will forco them to put their surplus pro ducts upon tho market, and manifest unu sual anxiety to sell. Tho effects of this Is easily foreseen. Brices will open at a low grade. Nono hut those In greatly cmhar. rassed circumstances will sell. Those who aro able will hold up for an advance In tlio market; and this advanco can ho reached only after forced sales shall have ended, Thus, beginning at the bottom and grad ually working upward, business will bo more steady and active this fall and winter, than at any tlmo since the close of tho war; because It Is always more actlvo upon an advancing than upon a receding market. The planter whosclls his cotton In October at twelve and n half cents net, may expect to see the speculator who buya It, sell the same at fifteen before tl)0 closo of tlie sea son. Tills will be ratlior nn exborbltant Interest on tlio money necessary to liqui date bis debts; and yet, all things consid ered, it Is preferable to borrowing money upon cotton receipts, at from 3jtf to 6 per cent, a month. The Polish Colony in Vihoinia.—Tlie Polish refugees who settled In tho colony of New Poland, in Spottsylvanla county, Virginia, a year ago, held a public meeting tn their reading room, on tho 25th ultimo, and put forth a declaration. Tho following statement is interesting: “Tho area of our settlement contains 2.402 acres, of which 1,305 acres have been nnrcliaseil at S3, 1,007 acres at *5.50. per acre—on six years’ credit. We have in the settlement 1,000 acres of cleared land, and 1.402 acres npper heavy oak timber. This whole settlement Is divided Into lots 1 or fkrms of 100 acres each—so that each or us has In the body of his farm, tho arable land, the meadow, tho wood land, and the water in running streams, creeks or springs. “We have resumed or adopted hero ag ricultural pursuits, because wo earnestly believe that agriculture alono can secure independent competency to tlioso political exiles trom Poland, who, like ourselves, have no other means of living but flic earnings of labor. And because ouronln- ion Is, that by thus securing our individual Independent competency wo will be come more useful tp our native land, in enso of need, than wc would ho should we choose to earn our bread In exile ns simply dally laborers for litre." Rkv. W. P. ll.iiuiisox in.Cartersvillk. This eminent divine Is announced to re- peathis lecture or “ Woman,” at Cartors- vlllc, on Wednesday night of next week. Augusta and Milukdoeville Rail- nOAD.—The Millcdgcviilo Recorder says the track on the Augusta end Is now laid to Dcvcreux’s, and from the MUledgcvlllc end to the Oconee river—near three miles. Tills leaves a gap of between twelve and il.iipen miles. . Mg\SseipsazsgnsAes Tho Recorder says the bridge over the Oconee Is alt iramep, the rock piers are fin ished, ami tlio structure will be ready for use at an early day. The management of the road are sanguine that it will lie run ning through by the first of November. stale Ill-ills. Tlie trial of tlio murderers of Judge Ho gan Is now being conducted at Amcrlcus. Henry Mitchell, convicted before tho Su perior Court at that place of horse stealing, lias been sent to tlio Penitentiary for four years. The Savnnnali News announces the death of Mr. E. E. Hertz, a merchant of that city, who died at Saratoga on Mon day. Tho same paper reports tho receipts of cotton In Savannah Friday 023 bales—810 by tho Central and 83 by tho Gnlf Rail road. Tlio Albany News announces the death of J. P. Strozler, which occurred at his plantation near Albany. Tho News sayi tho incroaso of deaths among prominent citizens of that place during the past few months has been fearful. Tho Al'gus says cotton Is selling In Butn- brldge at 20 cents a pound. So fur but fow bales have been rcccivod. The Argus gives a deplorable account of the cotton crop, resulting fr om Incessant rains and tho caterpillar. The Sandcrsvllle Georgian, of tlio 18th, states there b no abatement of sickness. It reports tho death of Judge S. O. Frank lin, at Ills residence at Tennivllle, last Sat urday; also, Jas. Gainer, jr, who died at his father's residence, Monday.- Tiie National BANK8.--.lt is hut just to say that there have been few failures of national banks, when we consider that there are 1,000 of them In the country. Nor have the losses been heavy from those that have failed.- Tho Financial Chronicle, In referring to two recent failures, states that of the large number of national banks only a score liavo failed during tlio lust three years, and that the number of weak. Insolvent Institutions, which are left, urc extremely few, “well known, and closely watched.” The Chronicle adds: “Some of tlioso persons who ore anxious and concerned thnt a few national banks here and there should fall may be re assured by the fact tbnt these institutions fall because they cannot comply With the searching provisions ol they law; and that this law, while by its stern application It destroys tho rotton parts of the financial machinery, only docs so la order that the rest of the fkbrlc may have force and elas ticity enough to resist all tho shocks with which frituro monetary revulsions may try its stability and strength.” A Voice Irom the Country. San Town, Ga, Sopt. 20,1807, Editors Opinion: I liavo been traveling round for some time without any ostensi ble business, solely for the purpose of amusing myself, and to get new ideas from other men. I find a great many men who got up tho lato rebellion, and thereby ruined the prospects of the South forever, very much alarmed at present for fear the Radicals, Union League, or some other party will ruin tho country. Suppose the Radicals were to ruin the country, then It would be ruined a second tlmo; and I would like to know what par ty put tho country In the condition It Is I I flnd a great many men \vlUlng to rebuild tho Government if they can rebuild the parly that has ruined the South. And if they cannot hold ofilco and control the country, they wont no Government. They aro radically opposed to the negroes voting, unless he votes on their tide, and they arc outraged at the Idea of negroes holding an office, and yet they swear by all that Is good and bad that they will voto for a ne gro before they will voto for a Union man, who was opposed to having tlio great South laid waste forever I The very men who violated their allegiance to the best government In the world; who violated the Constitution of tho United States, and the laws thereof without tho shadow of a cause, aro just now enraged at tho Radicals for passing laws that gentlemen who are guilty of treason suppose to bo unconsti tutional. Theso men say they aro “con servative.” That means a party, I suppose, that failed to tear down tho Government of tho Unltod States, and ruin the South. Do such men want office and power again to put us In a worse condition 7 liavo they not done enough to rest from their labors? Be content, for neither Radicals, Union men, nor negroes, can bring morocalnmlty and distress In the land than you have. ______ Cato. Free I,aboil—In a speech at Cincinnati, In 1803, Mr. Chase said: llow well I remember when tho ground on which this atntoly house now stands was part of nn open square, terminated Jnst iere by a steep bluff over tho street where you now are. and occupied only by the modest dwelling of Jacob Burnet, that distinguished and venerated pioneer and citizen now gone to his rest. I used some times to como here when a boy, and how happy I was If I chanced to attract his kindly recognition. But now, my friends, what do we see ? A great city, crowded by an intelligent population, and with all tho means of unsurpassed prosperity; a city full of schools, churches, workshops, mid nil tlio Instruments of progress and cul ture. Do you ask whence come all this progress and prosperity; whence come nil these evidences of tlio highest civilization 1 The answer leaps to all lips—these arc the fruits of lice labor and popular govern ment. The lesson Is. obvious. Free labor nmi popular government are tlio greatest of human Interests. .[Cheers.] Tennessee Cohn.—Tho Chattanooga Union of yesterday says: *5.(1 We have received a specimen of corn, taken-at random from -Arm.
