The report on the Grand Sires says that whilst the an nual returns exhibit an increase in Lodges and Encampments, and in the amount paid for relief over last year, they indicate for the first time since 1863, a falling off in member ship and revenue. The annual loss to the Order in prosperous as well as in adverse times of members for non payment of dues is a subject emi nently worthy the beet con sideration that we can give it, and large accessions of now and untried material is being constantly added to our numbers, we find it occasionally counter balanced, especially so at the present time, by loss of members who through negli gence or inability are dropped or sus pended for the above cause.

Editor Times:—l ask space in your popular journal to offer a word of suggestion, in the utmost kindness, to those interested. The delegates of the several coun ties composing this District met in your city some time since. They failed (perhaps owing to more causes than one) to nominate a candidate ■for Congress. They adjourned to meet again in Newnan on the 17th inst. The question now is, who is to be the fortunate gentleman? Or upon whose shoulder shall the responsi bility rest of breaking up the conven tion? Come, let us reason together as men. Since it is but too apparent that our present worthy and honest representative cannot be returned without manifest trouble and dissen sion in the party, let us look around and see if we can find a gentleman in every respect worthy and acceptable to all. If so, why not nominate him at once, and thus act the part of wisdom. The time has passed for po litical bummers and ambitious in triguers to control conventions in this State, I hope. While there are a large number of noble and distinguished sons in this Congressional district—men who have proven themselves worthy of every position in which they have been placed, and have reflected hon or upon their constituentsand State, yet to give to the human mind a di rection that it shall retain for ages, is the rare prerogative of but a few imperial spirits. It may bo true, that we have no great intellectual son who may be the equal of Mr. Calhoun or Mr. Clay. We have, how ever, men of fine talent, who, if they were placed upon a suitable theatre to nourish and develop their genius would be an honor io the south. No human mind can foretell to what eminence they .may attain in the in tellectual world in the future. With out in the least disparaging the claims of other gentlemen to promo tion, I think the delegates at New nan cannot make choice of no more worthy son than theone whose name I shall mention at the proper time. I shall only state such facts as I know to be true. Hope to offend neither the gentleman referred to, nor his friends, by my letter. If the people desire an honest, in tellectual, self-made man to repre sent them—one whose talent is of the highest order, and who is yet young, (36 years old)—they can find him in the person of Col. P. F. Smith, of Newnan. He was raised poor, kept in the cornfield until he was eighteen years old. By close application during the intervals of labor he mastered the rudiments of science. By careful economy he accumulated a small sum of money, and with the credit extended him by friends, entered Emory College, and after four years, received the first honor. Every dol lar loaned by friends he paid back. Most of the money thus paid he earned .as a soldier. He made a true and brave soldier, In 1866-7 he trught school, and with the money thus earned, attended the University of Virginia for two years. Out of 450 students he received the “Debater’s Medal.” The Colonel once kept a mill in Campbell county. Those who patronized him say he never took too much "toll.” Therefore he must be honest. He was the leading counsel for de fendant in the celebrated case of the State vs. 8. B. Brinkley, that occu pied so much public notice recently. Gov. Porter of Tennessee, (B. was a citizen of Tennessee), wrote Col. 8. a letter thanking him for his “noble defense” of the unfortunate Tennes seean. He has a large practice in his part of the State; was an elector on the Greeley Ticket; made a vigor ous campaign ; dealt largely with the subject of taxation, showing the enormous burden imposed on the laboring people by the carpet-bag government. The papers through out the District gave him the nom de plume of “The man of Figures.” Our people know him as such. Coming down to the great question which now demands pracitcal solution: He is opposed to the National Bank system ; believes it a sore curse to the best interest of trails; thinks the government ought to issue the mon ey direct to the people; believes in the bi-metalic basis, and that the greenback dollar ought to be con vertible in gold or silver at the op tion of the holder, and issued in sufflclen: amounts to meet the de mands of foreign and domestic trade. He opposes the donation of public lands to build railroads; thinks that Georgia should have her interest in those public lands and that the mon ey arising from the sale of them should be used to educate the people. He had rather see the country dotted wii h school bouses than spanned with Pacific Railroads fostered by Credit Mobiliers. Ou all other question Col. Smith is in perfect accord with the Democratic party. Like Roger Sherman, Mr. Fillmore, Andrew Johnson and a host of other distinguished names in American history, he is a self-made man, and as such certainly deserves ; the greater credit. I Col. S. is a fine stump speaker—very j popular in Campbell, Coweta,Carroll ’ and the adjoining counties—and has ' only to be known to be admired and appreciated as a cultivated gentle man of the highest order of intellect. I have now completed this hurried letter. I feel it to be a very imper fect and jejune notice of a superior person. You will confer a favor upon some of your friends if you will ad mit it into your columns. In haste,l remain, Most respectfully, A Voter of Marion. FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.
