a committee, consisting of Rev. Messrs. Reese,

The committee retired for a few moments,
and returning reported that all were in due
form excepting that of St. Luke’s Church, in

member the delegate from Ft. Luke’s Church
was again commenced; nnd concluded, after a
warm debate, by referring the question lo a
special committee of three, consisting oi
Messrs. Hunter, Moore and Gen. Wayne.
[Note. — The discussion was of interest, and
the substance of it would be given by us but
for the reason stated by oue of the disputauts,
that it was a discussion upon a subject about
which the disputauts could not agree at pre
sent on the facts. Besides this, the discussion
will come up again to-day, and the points at
issue will be presented by the committee.]

An Original Letter of General Washington.
Wo are indebted to Philemon Dickinson,
Esq., of this city, for the privilege of copy
ing a letter written by General Washing
■ton in 1780 to Dr. Franklin, then in Paris,
and which has never before been published.
Mr. Dickinson obtained the letter from a
relative, a lady residing near Germantown,
Pa. This lady’s father was a ward of .Dr.
Franklin, and resided with him for some
time in Paris. After his death the follow
ing letter was found among his papers. It
is in Washington’s handwriting, and bears
the marks of the care and method that
always distinguished him in the small as
well as the great affairs ol life. Mr. Dick
inson intends to present the original letter
to the Historical Society of this State.
The following is an accurate copy of the
latter:
Bergen County, in the State of New
Jersey, Oct. 9, 1780.— Dear Sir: I was
very much obliged by. the letter which
you did me the honor to write me
by our aimab'e young friend, the
Marquis De La Fayette, whose exertions
to serve this country in his own, are addi
tional proofs of his zealous attachment to
our cause, and has endeared him to us still
m*re.
He came out flushed with the expecta
tions of a decisive campaign and fired with
hopes of acquiring fresh laurels, but in both
he has been disappointed; for we have been
condemned to an Inactivity as inconsistent
with the situation of affairs as with the
ardor of his temper.
I am sensible of all I owe you, my dear
sir, for your sentiments of me, and while I
am happy in your esteem, I cannot but
wish occasions of giving you marks of mine.
The idea of making a tour together, which
you suggest, after the war, would be one of
the strongest motives 1 could have to post
pone my plan of retirement and make a visit
to Europe, if my domestic habits, which
seoin to acquire strength from restraint, did
not tell me, I shall find it impossible to re
sist them longer than my duty to my coun
try calls for the sacrifice of my inclinations.
I doubt not you are so fully informed by
Congress of our political and military state
that it would be superfluous to trouble you
with anything relating to either. If I were
to speak on topics of the kind, it would be
to shofv that our present position makes
one of the two things essential to us :
Peace, or the most vigorous aid of our allies,
particularly in the article of money. Os
their disposition to serve us wo cannot
doubt; their generosity will do everything
their means will permit.
With my best wishes for the preservation
of your your useful life, and for every hap
piness that can attend you which a siucere
attachment can dictate,
1 am, my Dear Sir,
Yr. Most Obed. & Hbl. Servt.,
Go. Washington.
His Exceliy, Doc. B. Franklin.
Georgia. —We fear this fine old Common
wealth is given over to negro-radical rule.
If so, it is the infamous consummation
mainly of what the great English Radical
could call a very dirty conspiracy. The
Conservatives were obliged to bring out
three candidates suceslively—Judge Reese,
Judge Irwin and Gen. Gordon—the two
flr|L> hay ing.been declared ineligible by Gen.
stood'how such tactics as these would de
moralize any party ; but only' one well up
in the politics of the State can appreciate
the full effect of such warfare upon the for
tunes of the Georgia Conservatives. There
was villainy enough, Heaven knows, in the
canvass of the Radicals—wholesale and
open bargain, the corrupt alliance of ambi
tious demagogues, the stay law swindle,
and such political Chadbands is Joe Brown
—but after all, we believe the Conservatives
were tricked out of the election. With any
one of the three candidates named above,
especially with Judge Irwin, and full
time for Conservative organization and a
thorough canvass, radicalism would have
fled the State, as of old certain domestic
animals ran into the sea and were drowned.

Cotton and Provisions.
J. N. Cardozo, the veteran of the South
ern Press, now an octogenarian, has pub
lished in Charleston a cotton statement, in
which I)is usual comprehensive views are
detailed, harmonizing experience with gen
eral principles. The summary of his con
clusions embrace the following proposi
tions :
1. That the loss of productive power by
the Southern States, by the disorganization
of labor and destruction of capital, will ne
cessarily change the industrial relations of
those States.
2. That the prices of those products pro
duced by slaye labor must be correspond
ingly enhanced to meet these changed con
ditions of the cotton trade.
3. If there is a limit to the consumption
of the raw material, as well as to the en
hanced price of the cotton manufactured
products, there is a limit also to the pro
duction of cotton in these countries which,
being densely peopled, incur great hazards
from famine in consequence of the diversion
of labor and capital from the cultivation
of the cereals to the raising of cotton, from
the stimulation given to that culture by
high prices.
4. That British India, particularly Lower
Bengal and Egypt, have furnished pregnant
illustrations of this truth in 1866, by the
loss of large numbers of their people
through famine. It was estimated, in a
late number of the North British Review,
that the famine of 1866 destroyed 10,000
lives in Lower Bengal.
The final conclusion from this state of
facts is, that it holds out an admonition to
the planter not to suffer the lure of high
prices to seduce him from the path of
caution, inducing him to neglect the culture
of those products for food which are
essential to the support of human life.
We would not have our agricultural
friends to put aside the profit which the
chances of the market may have thrown
in their path, but let them by all means
cultivate a share of breadstuffs that will
place them beyond the peril of the want ol
the necessaries of life.
Let our planters read over these ideas
carefully, and heed the suggestions therein
made. Raise provisions and be indepen
dent; raise cotton and make a few dollars
for present use, and then pay out
for provisions more than a double what
you received. Which will you do ?
Mr. Clarence Logan, of Philadelphia,
just returned from Savannah, having
observed the election there, has made a
statement that in one ward in that city
several negroes were supplied by a wag?
with labels of “ Costar’s rat and roach
exterminator” and voted them as ballots.
Some of the very intelligent suffragans
noticing a cut of a rat on the supposed
ballots, asked what it meant. They were
told it stood for the “ rat-iflection of the
constitution.” They wondered, believed,
and voted. After this, who prates about
educating voters, and who doubts that the
colored troops fought nobly ?—W. TANARUS, World.

Frightful Prophecies
Concerning the End of Ail 'lhings
Arc made by religious enthusiasts ; and, on the other
hand, philosophers insist that the eentie of the Earth is
a mass of fire—that the poles of the Earth will oue day
be at the Equator, and that the Sun is gradually lading I
Talk like this is very terrible; but, pending HUch whole
sale calamities, it will be as will for each member of so
ciety to take care of his or her health, end leave the rest
to Providence.
The end comes prematurely tu alt who neglect the pre
servation of that inestimable blessing. Suffer liver dis
ease, dyspepsia, chronic constipation or any other ail
ment to take its course unchecked, and it will assuredly
shorten life. It cannot be said that the meane of pro
tecting the system against the predisposing causes of
disoase are w ithheld. The constitutions and physique of
the least robust may be so strengthened and fortified by

Hurley’s Sarsaparilla,
Os all the medicines that have been discovered dur
ing the present age for the “ thousand iils that flesh is
heir to,” none equal this wonderfu preparation. Only
ten years have elapsed since the discoverer (who spent
a decade in studying experiments, and prefecting it)
tirst introduced it to the public, and it is already-re
cognized by the most eminent physicians in all parts
of the country, to he the most surprising and effective
remedy for certain diseases of which they have any
knowledge.
All other Compounds or Syrups of this root have
hitherto failed to command the sanction of the Facul
ty, because on boii)g'tested, they have been found to
contain noxious ingredients, which neutralize the good
offects of tho Sarsaparilla,-and oftentimes Injure the
health of the patient. It is uot so with HURLEY’S
preparation.
This is the pure aud genuine extract of the root, and
and wili, on trial, he iound to effect a certain and per
fect cure of the following complaints and diseases:
Affections of the Bones, Habitual Costiveness
Debility, Diseases of the Kidneys, Dyspep
