f -The Eatotrton Press says a little son of
, Mrs. Amanda J. Diamond, fell from a tree
on‘Saturday fast, receiving injuries which
caused his death in a few hours.
Next week is the great jiibiiee of Put
nam couuty and Eatoutou. The Fair
promises to beau occasion of great inte
rest and complete success. So mote it be.
The Telegraph says that the different
cotton warehouses of Macon are now
filling up rapidly under the low and con
tinued decline in the price of cotton. —
Planters who are able to do so, as a gene
ral thing, are storing for thirty cents,
while the buyers are taking promptly near
all thq.t is offered at present market rates.
Thus far cotton buyers have been losing
money in this and all other markets of the
Soutb, and if prices should not very ma
terially advance next Spring they will be
Well nigli crushed under their heavy losses.
The Monroe Advertiser has been furnished
by Judge Hiram Phinazee with specimens
of his fanning, in the shape of corn and po
tatoes. There are thirty-six ears of upland
corn in the lot—the finest we ever saw.—
These thirty-six ears of corn average one
foot in length and eleven inches in circum
ference, and several contain twenty-two
rows of grain. We presume these are av
erage samples of Judge Phinazee’s crop.
They can be seen in our office. The pota
toes were the finest we have seen this sea
son. Judge Phiuazee made five hundred
bushels of corn on twelve acres. His best
acre produced fifty-three and a half bushels,
and the second best forty-six bushels. We
call this farming to some advantage.
The Atlanta Constitution learns that a
valuable chalybeate spring has been dis
covered one mile from Stone Mountain.
An Irish jaunting car has been intro
duced into Atlanta. The passengers sit on
seats arranged on the side, the driver in
front. The body is placed directly over
two wheels, the entire weight resting on
the axle.
The Columbus Enquirer reports a smash
up of a Montgomery and West Point Rail
road train within five miles of the city, on
Tuesday. The engine, tender, four cotton
boxes, express and passenger cars were
precipitated from the track. The cotton
cars were entirely wrecked, and most of
the others seriously smashed up. None of
the passengers were injured. Express
messenger Stewart had his hand slightly
scratched and received some little injury
in the side. Mail agent Piper also received
a slight hurt in the hand. A boy named
Tom was slightly hurt.
The gin house of Dr. Kurtz, who resides
about fourteen miles west of Dublin, in
Laurens county, containing six bales of
cotton, was consumed by fire on the morn
ing of the 20th Inst., supposed to have been
the work ot an incendiary.
We are in receipt of The Rome Daily , a
handsome sheet published by Mosely Bros.,
& Shanklin, and edited by J. F. Shanklin.
It presents a neat appearance, and we wish
it success. It is Democratic in politics.
The Rome Courier says donations to the
Cherokee Fair are arriving. A ball is
spoken of and uring the week. The workmen
are busy on the grounds, and all will be in
tip-top order by the 3d. J. & 8. Rones &
Cos. offer to the Georgia and Alabama
Shooting Club for the best pigeon shot
from trap, a premium of a fine double

Council of Forsythe resolved to take SS,OQiO

Expense op Collecting the Revenue.
*_The reports of the Fifth Auditor for ex
penses of collecting internal revenue for
1868 show the total expense of collecting
the revenue to be $2,348,860, of which
$2,237,424 was paid for compensation of
collectors. Double this amount for pick

Mississippi speaks for itself:
Meridian, Miss., Oct 16,1868.
Mr. R. T. R. Chadwicle :
Dear Sir: This is to cert.fy that I bought from
you, by your recommendation, a bottle of Hurley’s
Ague Touic, and it cured two cases of fever and ague
