AGRICULTURAL ASK SEED AGENCY. — Our planting friends will t*» pleased to learn that an agency for the supply of all varities of field flower and garden seeds, as well as agricultural and horticultural implements of every kind has been es tnblishcd in our eitv. Mr. A. H.Ketchutn, No. 2 Van Winkle Block, Jackson street, is the agent for Fast-hall Morris of I’hil adelphia, the world renowned seedsman— and is prepared to furnish seeds in any desired quantifies—together with all the new and improved labor saving imple ments of husbandry—this agency supplies a long needed demand and we commend tin- agency of Mr. Keteham to our planting friends throughout the State. Personal, We were honored yesterday, by a rail from 1 1 is. Henry F. Campbell and Joseph A. Milligan. Both of these gentlemen were connected with the Georgia Relief and Hospital Association, and earned for themselves in the medical branch of the. Confederate service, an enviable reputa tion as arrompiished surgeons and physi eians and kind hearted gentlemen. Hr. • ampbell lias recently been called to the chair of (Surgery in the University of Louisiana,‘at New Orleans. Hr. Milligan having remained in Florida on account of his health, since the close of the war, (to which point ho bi|d been sent as the lucid of a oommission on hospitals) now returns to reside in Augusta. Cart. Riixrord.—There Is hardly a man in Ibis county who will not remember Oapl.

I'XciTisfn of the Ulilon Point Academy— Nehliut’s Hotel, &c. It was our priviloge to attend tho closing exorcises at the semi-annual session of the Union Point Academy on Thursday last. The school was established soon after tho close of the war by (’apt. R. B. Smith, of Florida, where lie had been successfully engaged in teaching previous to the war- After four years of arduous and honorable service in tho army, as Captain in the 7th Florida Regiment, during! vifliich he was several times severely wounded, lie lias returned to his favoiito profession. Ho is assisted by Miss. Lou Prudtlen, of Eaton ton, a lady of thorough accomplishments, especially in music and the French lan guage, of which departments she has charge. THU EXAMINATION. During tho day, tfie different elapses were examined in the presence of llte friends and patrons of the school. A ma jority ofthe pupils were small, and evinced a degree of proficiency, and an excellence in discipline, most creditable to teachers and pupils. We wero especially pleased with the practical style which Prof. Smith pursues—leaving tlio scholars to think, and to learn, for themselves, under principles which arc made plain and easy by bis il lustrations. The pupils in Geography are required to draw and color maps of the different countries —thus fixing the localities ineffacibly in the mind, and learning them at the same time, to dmtw and w rite. Soinooftlie maps, executed by children scarcely more than twelve years old, were exceedingly accurate and taste ful. Mathematics are taught chiefly on the mental and analytical plan—teaching the pupil,at every step, to think. Thegram mer classes evinced a thorough training in first principles—and their readiness and proficiency in parsing excited geiteral_.sur prise. In the higher mathematics, as well as in l.atin anil French—though the examination was brief— tho pupils exhib ited the same thoroughness and self-reli nhce. The discipline ofthe school is most ad mirable-evincing tho rare capacity to exact obedience ' without exciting fear or crushing tlie buoyancy of youthful spirits. ADD It Ess OI 1- A. s. FLORENCE, ESQ. At the close of the morning exercises a most admirable address was delivered by A. S. Florence, Esq., of Social Circle, it w as eminently practical and appropriate in tone, while its chaste stylo and the elo quent manner in which it was delivered, won the highest plaudits from all. Mr. Florence is engaged in teaching at Soeia (fircie, and is a son of Bov. mi*. Florence, of Oxford, ills empty sleeve is a silent ;unl touching testimonial of his patriotic devotion during the war, and this effort adds to his claim upon the admira tion of his countrymen, and marks him as a young man ol' sterling talent and pro mise. Wo hope to present his address to our leaders. THE EXHIBITION AND CONCERT at night attracted a crowded audience.

One of teem gave an amusing account of the way in which this merit was secured. The young ladies, instead of being allowed to call on their friends, or copy from the classics, wore locked up in the church, (which ad joins the school house,) where nothing but the Rible and hymn books could bo culled to their aid! Here again the self-reliance which underlies Prof. Smith’s whole sys tem ol'teaching, was happily illustrated— and the compositions evinced the degrees of merit and capacity possessed by each. Reading such efforts is a trying ordeal for young ladies, and those who appear to the, poorest advantage on such occasions, while not wanting in intellectuality, often poss ess in tho highest degree those more en during charms ol' womanly modesty and deiiciicy. The declamations were many of thorn very excellent, and showed good ma terial for public speaking in “th good time coming” when such talents shall resume their old place in the professions which in a great degree manufacture and con trol public opinion. Several dramatic, pieces were highly diverting, and worthy of more extenced notice. In these the Teacher of French and music, and an accomplished young lady, (the wife of one of oqr leading merchants, who is visiting her parents, in the village) —ciuno to the aid of tho scholars, and con tributed largely to the laughing part of the exercises. We must not forget the music, which is a psfrt of the daily exercises of all the pupils—and which was especially cre ditable and pleasing. All the pupils are tuught to sing by note, and in all the pieces —those sung by tho whole school as well us tho solos, duets, &c.—excellent time was preserved, and the effect was truly captivating. We have not deemed it proper to allude, among pupils so young, to individual in stances of merit, which usually shine out in all exhibitions of this kind. Such com pliments only tend to inflate the vanity, and create jealousy among parents and children. The exercises were as a whole, unusually creditable—and show that the people of Greene county have in Prof. Smith, and his fair assistant, teachers de serving liberal support. We commend them to tiny of our citizens who wish to send their children out oftown to school. Union Point is healthy and accessible, and its social influences unexceptionable. REMARKS BY REV. J. W. REED. At the close of the exercises, Rev. J. W. Reed, a teacher of thirty year’s experience, addressed the audience, in a few im promptu remarks, commending In very high terms tho system of instruction pur sued by Professor Smith, and urging upon the people the importance of sustain ing the school. UNION- POINT HOTEL. During our stay at Union Point we wore liberally feasted by Mr. Nebhut, one of our earliest and best friends, who presides over the hotel. His table was loaded with good tilings, and any of our friends who wish to take a brief respite and| a lit tle fresh air, will find his house a cosy and comfortable resort. Prof. Smith (who is his brother-in-law) and Miss Prudden are members of his family circle, while Mr. Mart is under tho same roof, and the two families combine an amount of social and musical good cheer which will dispel the wrinkles from the brow and the shad ows from the heart of the veriest cynic. Lieut. J. Julius Jacobus. We cheerfully give place to the follow ing letter from an esteemed correspondent, .calHftg attention to an omission in our arti cle in yesterday’s paper on the subject of “Religious Intolerance,” of the name of Lt. J. Julius Jacobus, of the Augusta Wash ington Artillery, from the list of Israelite heroes in the late war. . The omission was entirely accidental. Although Lieut. Jacobus served in t)ie ar my of the West, as stated by our corres pondent, the fame of his gallant deeds was not confined alone to that organization. We knew him well, and long before the war, and when in obedience to the dictates of duty, he early enlisted in the service, wo felt assured that he would, if his life was spared, win high distinction, and though he fell early in the contest, the hopes of his friends were not disappoint ed. Wo are glad to have the opportunity of endorsing all that is said in his praise by our correspondent: JPMessus. Editors: -V n editorial in to day's Chronicle, on the subject of Religious Intolerance, as practiced iii North Caroli na, meets mv cordial approval and endorse ment ; yet, m enumerating the gallant con duct of'this peculiar people, and the unsel fish patriots from our city, the name of one luis been omitted, which"l cannot suffer to pass unnoticed. It is true that he fell early, and in the army of the West. I allude to the gallant, intrepid, unselfish, and pa triotic Lieut. J. Julius Jacobus, who vol unteered with one of our first companies, and at Pensacola for kind treatment to his men. and soldierly bearing, was distin guished : and on tlie bloody battle-field of (Shiloh, where his noble form with our gal lant Johnston foil a martyr to our cause, he was more than distinguished. A truer man, more gallant and intrepid soldier and unselfish patriot, never lived, and how any people can proscribe such a race, 1 cannot understand, and trust forthe cred it of the old North State that her true sons may arise and wipe the foul blot from her heretofore fair name. TV. y; Augusta, July 20, 1866. Georgia. The Dalton Georgian .-ays that* within the past few days, several hundred able bodied freedmen have passed this place, who are to be put to work on the lower end ot the Dalton A Jacksonville Railroad. The Lagrange Reporter says that the Lagrange Female College has just closed a very sucessful term —having about one hundred scholars in actual attendance. We understand the prospects for the en suing Session are very flattering. We are glad to hear that the admiration of the"college has been such, under the supervision of Rev. Mr. Armstrong as to commend it to the warmest confidence of its patrons and the public, and which is hut an earnest ot the iuture. Preparing for W ar. * The Destructionists in Congress, backed by the rank and n!e of the Northern Dis unioniste, are at work night and day pre paring to bring about another recourse to arms. Not satisfied with the desolating effects ofthe late civil war, both on the Southern and Northern people, they are earnestly engaged in efforts to bring about a collision between the Executive and Leg islative Departments of the Government, which must inevitably involve the North ern and Western States in a struggle among themselves, the intensity, bitterness, and destructiveness of which might well make honest and sensible men shudder to con template. The Rump Congress is driving its mad course, heedless of results. To depose the President seems to be their first and njain object. This accomplished, they hope to obtain full possession of the Government, and inaugurate a system which will ensure the perpetuity of their power. The first steps in this revolutionary programme have already been taken. A bill has passed the House of Representatives providing for the arming and organization of the militia of the loyal States. This armed force is to be Held subject to the order of Congress, to be used against the legally constituted au thorities ofthe United States Government. In a recent lettej to the New York Times, written by its chief editor, Ray mond, the history ofthe plot is very fully exposed. Below we give the principle points made in the letter and desire to call the serious attention of our readers there- G ■ r • “You may have noticed the passage in the House, a few days since, of a resolu tion offered by General Paine, of V) iscon sin, calling on the States to organize, dis-' cipline and equip their militia, and direct ing that two-thirds of the arms, ordnance and ammunition now under custody of the General Government be distributed among the States ,—the distribution among the loyal States to take place immediately, and that among the States lately in rebellion to be. postposed until further orders. The resolution came up from the Committee o n Military Affairs and was pushed to a vote, without debate or delay, under the previous question. It attracted as little attention in Congress as it has in the country ; and the public will doubtless receive with in credulity the assurance'that it'was intend ed, by those who secured its passage, as the first step toward preparation for an otjicr civil tear. Although no debate was had upon it, members were urged to vote for it by direct conversational appeals on the floor on the part of the few who were privy to its introduction. Some were told that it was ipessary to enable the South ern loyalists ro protect themselves: —others that it was simply a matter of detail in the War Departments :—others that the arms must be taken out of the hands of the President: and others t. , was propos ed at the instance ofthe . -of War. An appeal was made by n. of loWa, to allow debate up r. !• seemed to be a matter of importance—but this was refused. Most of the leading and reflecting Radi cals in Congress take this view of the po litical future : If the Fall elections result in the choice of Northern .Democrats enough to constitute, when added to the members from the Southern States, a ma jority of the House they assume that this majority, thus constituted, will claim to be the Congress, and will act accordingly, and that they will be recognized by the Presi dent as the body to which he will send his message, and whose sessions he will, if the necessity should arise, protect by military force. They assert, on the other hand, that the Union members from the loyal States—if they constitute a majority from those States—will claim to be the only legal Congress, and will, if necessary, in voke an insurrection of the people to main tain them in that position. They do not in the least conceal their purpose in the event of such a collision, to appeal to force, and to “drive the rival Congress, with the Pres ident and his Cabinet and supporters, in to the Potomac,” to use the language of one of the ablest and most, sincere of theif number. If you will recall the remarks or Mr. Boutwell, of Massachusetts, in last week’s first caucus, you will see this move ment clearly foreshadowed—indeed avow ed. He declared his belief that an issue of force was rapidly approaching, and that we must be prepared to meet it. He acts, and all who co-operate with him in these measures profess to act, under the appre-. hension that the President intends to re sort to force—that he means to disperse the present Congress on its re-aSsembling in December if, it refuses to admit the Southern members; and Mr. Farns worth . ascribed to Air. Seward the declaration, that this Congress should never re-assemble unless the Southern members were admitted —in support of this belief. I need scarcely say that Mr. Seward never made any remark of the kind, nor that the project ascribed to the President is purely an invention, or at best the crazy dream of a political nightmare. But in cither case, it serves the same purpose. It covers, and is held to justify, the determination to arouse the North, and prepare for a resort to force upon the assembling of the Fortieth Congress in extra or in regular session; and this determination is avowed. And the resolution to which I have referred, for an organization of the militia and a dis tribution of arms in the Northern States, is. the initiatory step to its execution. I do not propose to comment upon the result of such a movement. It is obvious that if any such contingency should arise, the war would not be sectional , as was the last; it would he a war of political parties and of neighborhoods. Not only have the great body of the Union party in Congress no sympathy with these views and purpo ses, but they are in the main ignorant and incredulous of their existence. That the extreme Radicals entertain them, however, there is not the slightest doubt, and we know, from the experience of Secession in 1861, how few men it sometimes requires to plunge a great party or a great nation into war.” Tlie Atlantic Cable Fleet. The cable expedition is not expected to sail faster than five miles an hour, or 120 miles per day, and as the Great Eastern probably left the Irish Coast on the 19th inst., the is supposed to be over 1,000 ou the voyage. Proceeding at the same rate, we may to hear of her arrival at Heart’s Content about July 27th. An advertisement of cheap shoes in a country paper has the following note bene : “N. B. —Ladies wishing those cheap shoes will do well to call soon, as they won’t last long.” Honest! BY TELEGRAPH. 1 - r - ■ FROM WASHINGTON. Congressional, <ic« Washington. July 20—The Senate, concurred in the report of the Committee of Conference on the Diplomatic Appro priation Bill, by which the mission to Por tugal is abolished — the Minister (James E. Harvey) having strongly endorsed the proposition in a letter to Secretary Sew hrd, which found its way into the House. The amendment to the Tariff bill, from the House, was reported with an amend ment suspending the collection of the direct tax imposed by the Act of 1-801, until Jan uary 1868. The House passed by a vote of 125 against 12 the joint, resolution, restor ing Tennessee toiler former political rela tions* to the Union, and declaring her again entitled to be represented by Sena tors and Rrepresentatives duly elected and qualified, upon the condition of complying with the oath of office required by the ex isting laws. The result was received with general applause on the floor of the House and in the galleries. The bill heretofore reported from the Committee on Reconstruction, specifying the terms on which the Southern States may be re-admitted, was tabled. Stevens offered a resolution providing for a recess of Congress till the first Satur day in December, and giving the presiding officers in both Houses authority to con vene the members at an earlier period should they think necessary. . The President to-day sent to the Senate for confirmrtion the name of Henry Stans berry, who has been nominated for the po sition of Attorney General U.-S. The President has nominated Joseph S. Wilson for Commissioner of Land Office, in the place of Judge Edwards, who was removed on aceount of his extreme radi calism. Washington, July 20. —It is under stood that Ex-G'overnor Holden of North Carolina will be rejected as a minister to San Salvador on the ground of his par ticipation in the rebellion. Washington, July 21. — The Senate passed a resolution extending for five years to the Alabama and Florida Railroad, the time for payment of duties on railroad iron and relaying the track. In the House, a joint resolution for the admission of Tennesse was taken up, debated and amended. Anew preamble was substi tuted, declaring that Tennessee was seized by enemies of the Government in 1861, but now shows every disposition to conform to the Constitution and laws, and has adopted the prohibition of slavery amendment to the Constitution, and also that proposed by the present Congress. The preamble also announces that the Legislative authority alone’ is authorized to restore States under similar circumstances. Tho amended reso lution will be sent back to the House for its concurrence. The House adopted a concurrent resolu tion, by five majority, providing that when the officers of the two Houses shall adjourn their respective Houses on the blank day of blank to the second day of October, and if on that day there was no quorum in either House, the presiding officers shall adjourn both Houses to the first Saturday in December. Rousseau made a speech in vindication of his caning Grinnell, concluding by read ing a copy of his resignation Jl a member of the House, to-day sent to the Governor of Kentucky. The nrder of the House was then executed by Rousseau being called before the bar, when the Speaker repri manded him. A resolution had been pass ed that lie (Roussea*) be publicly repri manded, and the Speaker said that noth ing could add to the force of the resolu tion, and merely said the gentleman was reprimanded accordingly. FROM NEW YORK. Indian Troubles—Cholera— Canadian Af fairs. New York, July 21.—A special dis patch from Leavenworth, Kansas, to the New York Tribune, denies the report from Omaha that peace has been made with the Indians. The inhabitants on the border are arming for protection.

In the United States Senate, on Wed nesday last, Mr. Poland, of Vermont, re ported from the Judiciary Committee the House Bankrupt Bill, with several amend ments. The third section, which gave the appointment of registers to the judges of the several circuit courts upon tlie nomina tion of the Chief-Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States, is amended by giving the appointment to the District judges, and striking out the nomination by the Chief-justice. The tenth section, which required the Chief-Justice of the Supreme Court, with five commissioners to be appointed by him, to prepare general orders for regulating practice under the law, is amended by requiring the Chief- Justice and two .associate judges to make rules. The fourteenth section, whioh, in addition to other property exempted from the operation of tlie law, exempted all property exempted by the laws of the several States from attachment and execu tion in the year 1804, is amended by strik ing out the exemption under State laws, thus ignoring the State homestead .acts, that the law may be uniform throughout the country, as provided by the Constitu tion. The thirty-fourth section, which gave creditors two years to apply to the court to have a bankrupt’s discharge annulled for fraud, is amended so that the time will he one year. Southern Railroad.— The Southern railroad, to connect Cincinnati with the ’Whole South, is silently progressing in the t vay of subscriptions, and, no doubt, the $ ; 1,000,000 asked for will soon be sub s cribed. It is reliably stated that, as soon a 3 the above sum is raised, ten eminent n lerchants of Cincinnati will subscribe $50,- C KX) each, making the whole amount from t hat city, $1,500,000. The Newest State.— Nebraska is no 1 anger a Territory.

REVIEW OF THE AICASTA MARKET, FOR THE WEEK ENDING JFI.Y 21sT, 1800. [ It should he borne in mind that our quotations represent wholesale prices. Email bills , to Planters and others, arc jilted at a shade higher rates.] REMARKS—The intensely hot weather of the last week lias rendered our market unusually dull, and few new or interesting features have been presented. In addition to the excessive heat, this portion of the State is suffering intensely for the want of rain, which has been severely felt for weeks. Many advanced crops of corn are utterly ruined, and we have been assured that in Greene county there are fields of one hun dred acres of corn, where they will not ac tually make more than seed. On mi lauds the prospect lias been a little better, though everywhere the future is gloomy beyond precedent. Owing to the extent and severity of the drought, the grain market here continues stiff, notwithstanding the dull and declin ing tone of the Western markets. Cotton, which was improving magically under the fine weather at the opening of the month, is now suffering severely for want of rain. Apprehensions of great scarcity and dis tress in this part of the State, on account of the failure of crops from drought appear to be well founded. We are pleased to note that Grittiu and Columbus papers report a more cheering prospect in the western por tion of the State. At the close of our re port there are some indications of rain. Cotton.—At the close of our last re view, the market was dull with light offer ing stocks, at the following quotations: Middling, 25@29 cents; strict middling, 30 cents; good middling, 31 ets. On Monday the news by the Nova Scotia, announcing ail advance in Liverpool, and a prospect for peace, created more animation, and prices were stiff. Some three hundred bales were sold at rates not reported. On Monday holders grew more, confident and prices were advanced fully 4 cent. On Thursday the market continued stiff, with an ad vancing- tone, and at the close on yesterday we quoted as follows: Low Middling 28@ — Middling. 2!>@3o Strict Middling 31@ — Good Middling 32@— FINANCIAL.—The demand for Gold and Silver has been limited during the week, with but little change in rates. On yesterday the decline in New York affected our market, and prices this morning were quite irregular. Some of the brokers were buying Gold at 148, and selling at 150. Others would not pay over 145. Silver is dull and neglected, and may be quoted, nominally, at 140 @143. Securities have been dull all the week, with no important change in quotations.

Silver, selling, dull 142© ... APPLES.—There have been large con signments of apples received during the week, and the market is dull. We have reduced our quotations to sl@l 50 f hush. ARTIFICIAL MANURES.—The mani fest importance of a good turnip crop) under the failure of corn in this vicinity, is creating a demand for artificial manures, which are especially adapted to turnips, and our dealers are supplied with all tiie approved varieties, tlie prices of which are to be found iy our table of quotations. BACON.—This article continues in de mand, with rather light stocks. We have raisetLour quotations, and tho market is stiff at tiie following rates: Clear sides, 25 ©2(Jcei)ts; clear ribbed do., 24©25 cents; ribbed do., 23@24 cents; shoulders, 201©21 cents; hams, 26@29 cents. BAGGING.—'The demand has' not yet opened, and prices are. not settled, but there is a tendency to higher figures. DRUGS.—Our quotations are carefully revised, and the market is well supplied with everything in that department. Paints and oils are in good demand, and prices are firm. CHEESE.—There is very little in the market and prices are nominal. COTTON GOODS.—The market is well supplied, and the demand limited, with a tendency to easier rates. FLOUR.—The stock of poor Western is pretty well exliuusted, and the better grades are scarce and in demand at ad vancing prices. We quote Western super fine at sl4 50@ 15; extra, $10@17; family, 818(5,-20; City Mills, lower grades scarce; family and extra family, slß@2o. GRAIN—The arrivals of Wheat are very light, and under an active demand, prices have advanced fully 25 cents bushel. We quote white $2 75©53 25, and a strictly prime article will bring $3 50; red, §2 00© SIOO. Corn is in fair supply, and in good demand at unchanged rates—sl 60(5-81 65 for white, andsl 50(5, .81 55 for yellow. Oats are scarce, and we have advanced pur quota tion to 81 10. HATS, CAPS, STRAW AND MILLI NERY GOODS—Our dealers are making constant additions to their stocks, which are attractive, and ample for the season. Competition in this trade is activO, and prices have been much reduced. LIQUORS —The market is well stocked, with very little demand, and quotations mav be regarded almost nominal. SALT— This article is in fair request, and prices are stiff and advancing. Sales have been made of lots at $3 <X>©s3 25, and we know of none to be had at less than the latter«figure. SUGAR —The supply i.s equal to the de mand, and prices are rather easier. See quotations. PLANTATION TOOLS—The market is supplied, with all the improved agricul tural implements, to which the attention of ourplantingfi'riends is especially invited. Quotations have a wide range, in conse quence of the great variety in quality of goods in each particular line, but competi tion's active and prices will be found rea sonable. Goiumerce of Xcw York.
