The State Agricultural Society*
It will be seen from yesterday’s proceedings
of this Society, published in this morning’s is
sue of the Ihtelljonckb, that after a two day's
session it has adjourned, having given its atten
tion to those important matters connected with
Us assemblage at this place which they so im
peratively demanded. We regret that the great
pressure upon our time and oar columns pre
vented us from being present, but for a few
minutes at different times, during its delibera
tions, and from giving a more extended account
of them. As a body, it was one of tbe most im
posing we have ever seen assembled in the
State to confer upon its agriculturial and other
resources, and otherwise to promote tbe pros
perity of the State. It was an eminently practi
cal body, tbe delegates in attendance from
several counties of the State, beiDg largely en
gaged iu agricultural and other pursuits,
who Lave hilbetto manifested a patriotic and
earnest desire to develope the resources of
the State, to improve ber agriculture, to encour
age home manufacture of her great staple, cot
ton, to encourage immigration that the open
lands of the State may be tilled, her mineral re
gions be developed, and otherwise to make Geor
gia what a most bountiful Providence designed
her to be. These delegates too represented a
constituency who are alive to the great work
they met here to confer npon. Over the delib
eratioDS ofjthe meeting Col. Benjamin C. Yan
cey. of Athens, presided with great dignity and
efficiency. But few gentlemen in our State have
taken a deeper interest in promoting the patri
otic and otherwise praiseworthy objects of the
Society than he, and noDe is more competent to
discharge the duties imposed upon him, as its
President. Ho has the will and understands the
way to success.
At some future period, we shall again refer to
the proceedings of this State Agricultural So
ciety—an institution now, from which we an
ticipate prosperous results to our people and to
Georgia.
Onr Withlnxiou Letter.
We invite the special attention of our readers
to the “ Washington Letter” which appears in
l his morning’s issue of the Intelligences
especially to that portion of it which refers to
the views of General Grant on Georgia
nftairs, and to the suggestions made to tbe Leg
islature of the Slate that it snonld “ beware”
what it does, lest it might “ do something to
give” CocgresB “ a pretext to interfere with the
State.”
We arc gratified to notioe also in the letter
the .high encomiums passed upon our immediate
Representative in Congress, the Hon. P. M. B.
Yo^ng. From other sources than this letter,
we have the same gratifying accounts of his
close attention to his unties, efficiency, and pop
ularity in Congress. Ilis constituents of the
Scvcuth District may well repose every conti
deuce in, nud be proud of, him.

We have bceu requested by the FiDauce Coai-
miitee of the House of Representatives to pub
lish the following proceedings of the Com
mittee .
Whereas, It'appears that the communica
tions of the Governor and Treasurer to this
Committee have been imprudently and hastily
published, which publications are calculated to
prejudice public opiuion; it is, therefore,
Resolved, by the Finance Committee, That as
they are patiently and thoroughly investigating
this matter, and inquiring into the report of the
Treasurer to the House of Representatives, and
arc still progressing in the investigation, with
out as yet arriving to any definite conclusion, it
is respectfully requested that the public will lor-
bear, for the time being, from the formation of
any opiuion, and await the report of this Com
mittee, which the Committee think will be lully
satisfactory. W. H. F. Hall,
Chairman Finance Com. House of Rep.
In connection with the foregoing, we have
been requested also to publish tbe following,
which was transmitted by telegraph to the daily
papers of our State on Tuesday night last, ami
handed to us for publication at the same time,
but was subsequently withdrawn, for further
deliberation, and to procure the assent of the
House Finance Committee, as appears above, to
the publication of a similar request:
To the Public: The undersigned, Sub-Corn
uiitteh of Finance Committee, appointed to iu
vestigate charges made by the Treasurer agains
the Governor, hope that you will not form you
opinions hastily. We are invesitgating the whoi
matter thoroughly, and we do aot doubt, from
evidence already belore us, that Gov. Bullock
lias acted with the strictest integrity. The only
question is as to his discretion, which is being
fully investigated. We are induced to make
this request of you because of the hasty course
<>f the Treasurer in making public certain cum
in nnic.it ions.

liberty or slavery of the Anglo-8axon race;

Washington Letter,
Washington Citt, D. C., I
Monday, Jan. 29th, 1869. )'
A person arriving in Atlanta from Washing
ton City—or, as the Radicals term it, the Capi
tal of the “ Nation ”—would be asked at least
two questions: First, “What is the news? ”
And secondly, u What is Congress going to do
with Georgia?” There is really but little
“ news ” which has not already transpired
through the public press.
The weather, for this season of the year, is
unusually and remarkably pleasant—almost
like tbe ordinary October weather of Middle
Georgia. The city is by no means so fall of
visitors as might be expected. For obvious
reasons, you seldom see either man or woman
from the “ Reconstructed South.” The ent er
prising office-seeker from the “ loyal North ”
fiDds no comfort or solace from the stolid and
reticiut President elect. Consequently, there is
nothing gained by making either combinations
or arrangements to control appointments under
the incoming adin'mistraiion. In short,
General Grant, treats all office hunters with
cold indifference and frigid politeness It is very
reasonably presumed by Genera’ Grant, that it
forty millions ot people have elected lum to the
highest position known to the civilized world,
that they are willing to allow him to select the
executive officers of that government, over
which lie is the recognized head. At all events,
it can be safely said that General Grant will ap
point no man to office who asks for it, either
directly or indirectly. He will carry out the
military rule in making appointments^ That is
to say, when an appointee is to be retained, or a
new appointment made, he will send for “per
sons and papers,” if deemed necessary. This
has been his coarse since he became General-in-
Chief of the Army, and whilst acting as Secre
tary of War. It is also well known that he is
strongly attached to this mode of making ap
pointments or changes. General Grant is iruch
stronger thau tbe party which elected him
to the Presidency, hence it will be in
his power to do great good for the down
trodden and plundered people of the South.
That he will be kind to the Southern people,
and protect them from the scourge of carpet-bag
and scalawag legislation, I have not a doubt;
and that he will also crush the insane and malig
nant legislation of a Puritanic Congress, 1 am
equally certain. It is useless to attempt to dis
guise the fact, that uo ordinary man can com
mence as a line officer in a volunteer regiment,
:md attain the position of General-in-Chief of
the armies of the United States, in one of the
most gigantic wars of auy age. It could not he
“accident” four \ ears.
The most striking characteristic of General
Grant is not solely that of reticence, hut his
great modesty and unpretending manner.
All ihitigs considered, I am wed satisfied that
General Grant will make a good President; and
by this I mean that he will execute no act ol
Congress which is not made in pursuance of the
Federal Constitution. All the South asks is con
stitutional legislation.
What Congress will do with Georgia is by no
means certain. I am satisfied, however, that
Congress will do nothing. Whilst Gen. Grant
has volunteered no advice, yet he has plainly
and unequivocally said, time and again, that he
(lid not believe any further legislation was neces
sary in the case of Georgia. This “ belief” ol
Geueial Grant lias great influence with mem
bers of Congress just at this time. Besides,
Congress has hardly the time between this and
the lourlh of March to pass an act remanding
Georgia to a territory, or doiog any other mis
chief. The general appropriation bill, the Pa
cific Railroad hill, the cases of Virginia, Missis
sippi, Texas, and the fifteenth amendment of
the Constitution, and sundry other important
schemes ol venality and tyranny, have to be
disposed of before reaching the case of Georgia.
Tiie time is very short. It the interim can be
bridged with prudence and non-action between
this and the 4th ot March, Gaorgia may
regard herself sale from the degrading rule of
scalawags, carpet-baggers, and negroes. I know
the fact, that General Grant has been consulted
repeatedly about the Georgia matter, and all he
has yet said was, that he regarded Georgia as a
reconstructed State in the Union, and should
be let alone. General Grant has given no ad
vice in the case whatever further than what I
have here staled. Of this the Legislature and
people of Georgia may be assured.
The Legislature of Georgia have excommuni
cated the negro as a law-maker. They did
right; they had a right to do it, and no Stale
Court can undo it. In the classical language of
the immortal Charles Sumner to the equally
immortal and infamous Stanton, we say, “»tick.”
The Legislature only stopped too soon in the
good work of cleaning the augean stable ; scal
awags and carpet-baggers should have gone out
with the poor negto.
The Representative from the 7th District of
Georgia—General P. M. B Young—is not only
the best looking man in either branch ot Cou-
gress, but he is making a most efficient member,
and from close attention to his duties and popu
larity with the controlling members of tbe Gov
ernment he will soon be able to exert a strong
influence in behalf of Georgia. Gen. Young is
the only member ot Congress from the “Recon
structed South,” who is * representative man ot
the Southern people. I feel proud to know that
the Seventh District of Georgia, is represented
by a Southern gentleman, a gallant office), a
man ot dignity, and one destined to make his
civic as he has his military mark.
The Legislature should beware. Congress is
anxious they should do something to give them
a pretext to intertere with the State. Let them
“Be wary and mistrustful; tae sinews of the soul are
these ”

Andrew Johnsoa.
The presidential office will soon be surrend
ered by Andrew Johnson. Unlike nearly al* of
ois predecessors, tbe indications are that he will
not retire inso private life but appear again be
fore the people of his own State to vindicate his
administration, and to rescue ber from the radi
cal rule that prevails in it. He will have a
stormy time of it, but none of the statesmen of
tue present day, are more inured to political
storms than be, and but few of past days iu
American history have endured them with more
firmness and come out of them oftener victori
ous over his enemies than himself. Radicalism
in Tennessee will receive a fearful shock when
fre first opens his batteries against it; and it re
quires no prophet to foretell, that ere he is done
with it, it will be utterly demolished.
A Washington city correspondent of the Nash
ville Banner, who writes well aad is evidently
well acquainted with the politics of Tennessee,
says Andrew Johnson is to be the next Gover
nor ot Tennessee. The writer, after a truthful
portraiture ot his personal and political charac

Macon, Ga , Feb. 2, 1869.
Gentlemen : On my return to my home, in
this city, after an absence on Imsiness of a few
days, I find published in the city papers, a cer
tain statement in regard to the payment of a
certain two thousand dollars to the executor of
Dr. Fort’s estate, and that the circumstances in
regard to the payment of the same was refer
red by the Legislature to your committee. As
the executor of my brother, Dr. Geo. W. Fort,
deceased, I beg leave to submit to your com
mittee the following statement, in lull, in regard
to sadd claim :
Several years before the war, Dr. George W.
Fort, then a physician residing in Mill edge vi lie,
acted in the capacity ot vaccine agent lor the
State of Georgia, nnder special act ot the Legis
lature, and by appointment of the Governor, his
duties were to procure vaccine matter, to be dis
tributed in each county of the State, that it might
be considered necessary ; and he was paid lor
said services one hundred dollars a year, and
was repaid by tbe State all ot the outlay incurred
by him in procuring said vaccine matter, which
was procured through an agency in Boston,
Massachusetts. His accounts, when presented,
were duly paid by the Executives, Govs. Her-
schell Y."Johnson, and Joseph E. Brown, as will
fully appear by reference to the Comptroller
General’s books. Said accounts were paid up to
1858, from which time up to the lime ot bis
death, on May 2d, 1866, be drew nothing from
tbe Treasury. Said account is before you, hav
ing bees taken from original entries, and is cor
rect, nearly all of which was for money ad
vanced.
I am fully conversant with the correctness of
this claim, and have personal knowledge of
most of the items shown, aud by frequent c on
versations with my brother during the last days
ot his life, he always considered that the claim
would be paid, and no active steps were taken
tor the collection of the same by reason of his
feeble health and the supposition that interest
was accruing o i the same, and there had been
no funds in the Slate Treasury since the close of
the war. Alter the death of Dr. George W
Fort, on May 2d, 1866, and during the fall ol
the same year, I made out said claim properly
certified to, and sent the same to Gov. Charles
J. Jenkins, he then being in the Executive chair
He replied to me that the Legislature had made
no provision for the payment ot indebtedness
incurred belore the war, and he recommended
me to preseut the same to the Legislature. On
the assembling of tbe Legislature, I presented
this claim through the joint Finance Com
mittee, Mr. Adams, of Clarke, being chairman.
A sub committee was appointed to examine said
account. Said committee were composed ot
Messrs Gresham ot Bibb, McWhorter of Green,
and Bill ot Randolph. Ou their examining
carefully the papers presented to them, among
which was an official certificate from Comp
troller General J. T. Burns, that no warrant had
ever been drawn on the Treasury lor said money
advances or services rendered, or any pan
thereof, and also a certificate from Gov.
Brown that Dr. George W. Fort had acted in
the capacity aforesaid uuring his administration,
said sub-committee agreed to recommend the
payment ot most of said claim, but retused to
recommend the payment of claim incurred dur
ing the war. On ttKir recommendation coming
before tbe Legislature, as a body, they retused
tij pay any ot the same—tor what reason I am
ignorant, except a general disposition to repu
Plate all indebtedness contracted prior the war.
I*left the papers in the bauds of Briscoe & de
G-affenreid, attorneys, at Milledgeville, aud
have not seen them siuce. So the matter rested,
until some time during the month of Novem
ber of last year, Mr. B. B. de Grafienried, be
ing in my office in this city on business, re
marked to me tbal he still bad the papers in
regard to said claim, and that he would attempt
to get a bill passed to collect the same if I would
pay to him halt the amount collected. Having
given up the attempt to collect said claim, I
verbally agreed to his proposal, and he at once
left my office. I expected nothing to be accom
pi is Lied until the assembling »f the Legislature.
But 1 suddenly, and without premonition of any
kind, received on December 3d. 1868, a packa^fe,
by Express, containing one thousand dallars,
from B. B. de Grafienried, who informed
me that the claim had been compromised
by him on the payment, by the State,
ot two thousand dollars, and that he
had kept half ot the amount, U3 per agreement,
f accepted tbe money without hesitation, know
ing that the Slate ot Georgia was due the estate
of George W. Fort lor money advanced, to a
much larger amount than was paid, and sup
posing that Gov. Bullock had recognized the
justice of the claim, and that he had authority
to pay the just indebtedness ol tbe State, or he
would uot have done so, as said amounts were
formerly drawD by Executive warrants, as will
be seen by Comptroller General’s books; and
whether the amocut received was not less than
the amount advanced, at a par value. Your
committee is rtspecilully referred to the papers
before you. Bat should you, on examination,
consider that any part of the amount paid was
not due, or that it was paid, not in accordance
with law, I am prepared, at once, to replace the
same in the State Treasury.
I have been very complete iu my statement of
this matter, knowing well the character and
correctness of the claim. Having no acquaint
ance whatever, either personally or otheiwise,
with his Excelleucy the Governor or the Slate
Treasurer, 1 was fearful that it might be consid
ered that 1 had acted in this transaction contrary
to that correct principle of right which should
govern a man and a citizen, and which are as
dear to me as my life.
Very respectfully, John P. Fort.

A most horrid and sickening murder took
place Thursday on the road near Sewellsville,
Belmont county, Ohio, which adds another dark
spot on the page of crime in Eastern Ohio. On
Thursday afternoon a young girl by the name
of Louisa Fox, daughter ot John Fox, residing
near Sewellsville, was met on the road about
lour hundred yards from her lather’s house and
murdered, by a former lover named Thomas
Carr. A correspondent, writing up under dale
of the 22d, furnishes the Allowing particulars of
the bloody tragedy: _ .~»i "■
Carr had been paying attentions to the young
lady tor some lime, and a short time ago'asked
permission of the parents ot the youug lady to
marry her. The parents refused, stating that
their daughter was not but fourteen years old,
and too young to enter the relations oi a wile.
Carr was apparently satisfied with the result ot
the interview, but made threats to the neighbors,
to which no attention was paid. He shortly al
ter left the neighborhood, but returned on the
day oi the murder, aud visited several lamilii s
near Mr. Fox’s house, and inquired it he couid
borrow a gun to shoot a rabbit. Not succeeding,
he started down tbe road iD the direction ot the
church, w here the young lady was attending
worship. Carr met bis victim, iu company with
her little brother, on the road, on their way
home—distant four hundred yards. He sprang
upon the detenseless girl with a large knife,
stabbing her in the breast. li* then seized her
by the hai^ and cut her throat from ear to ear.
The little brother ran home and informed his
father of the terrible tragedy enacted below the
bouse, ou tbe road.
The agonized father hastened to the spot, only
to find the body ot his beautiiui child covered
with blood, lying liieiess in the road. After the
hellish deed, Carr started oft again in quest ot a
gnu. He was tracked next morning to a coal
bank some distance trem the scene of the mur
der, where he remained until near daylight,
when he left the bank and went to tbe residence
ot the murdered girl. Tbe family were startled
by the report ot a gun. Upon going out, they
louud Carr lying on the ground, with his throat
cut He had 'ailed to sever the artery, and w.is
still alive. Ho was carried to the house el Dan
iel Munaey, near by,and medical aid summoned.
With a buiiet hole through nis lung, aad breath
ing with cifficuhy, he acknowledged the mur
der of the otiug girl and the attempt upon his
own lile. His wounds will prove latat. Tbe
