Chronicle A' fentinri. W KDNKSDW MORNING, Tl'G IST 1. Tlie Convention Saturday. A meeting of Delegates from a portion of the counties composing tlie sth Congres sional District was held at the City Hall in this place Saturrday. Delegate-were in attendance from six counties, and the pro ds dings were characterized by great pru dence and caution. 1 telega tes were suggested for the State at large, and Hon. Linton A. Stephens and Hen. A. It. Wright appointed delegates to represent this District in the Philadelphia (Convention, with lion. Jas. S. Hook and I >r. 11. It. Casey as alternates. We think the meeting yesterday acted wisely- in leav ing their delegation free from any particu lar instructions as to the course they shall pursue in Philadelphia. There can he hut on : question raise ! in that Convention, which the South c-an consistently engage in di.«eussing. That question is the imme diate admission of the Southern Repre sentatives and Senators in Congress. This is the only issue now before the people in which the South can consent to take any part. Let our Delegates confine their ef forts to this point alone, and there will he no possibility of getting us into entangling alliance with any party or section. The recommendation made of delegates fur the State at large meets our hearty ap proval. There are many reasons which make this selection peculiarly appropriate now. Two of the gentlemen selected are Senators elect from this State in the U. S. Senate. They have begn denied admit tance there, on account of the part they took in the late war. The people of the South have been told that they arc Rebels still, and that their presence in the Nation al Legislature would he dangerous to the Union. By sending them to Philadelphia, they will have an opportunity of laying hare to the Northern mind, their own and the feelings and sentiments of the great ltody of the Southern people. We feel as sured that if the true condition of public sentiment here was known at the North, that the schemes and plans of the Radicals would be repudiated and contemned. The opportunity for doing this is now offered, and it will he our fault ifwodonot improve it to our advantage. iHsuict Convention, Citv Hall, Augusta, Ha.,} July 28th, 1860. j In pursuance of the call to t*he people of the Fifth Congressional District to assem ble, through their delegates, to appoint Representatives to the Philadelphia Con vention, to he held on the 14th of August, delegates from a portion of the counties appeared and proceeded to organize a Dis trict Convention.

TO THE PEOPLE OF GEORGIA. The Legislature of Georgia, at its last session, passed an act to establish, at some suitable place in this State, an Insti tution for the protection!, support and edu cation of orphan children, to be styled the ‘Georgia .State Orphan Home.’ which shall be the property of the State. In pursuance of directions contained in the act, the Governor has appointed "a Building Committee of three, whose duty it shall he to select and purchase, or re ceive by donation, at some suitable place, a site or piece of land adapted to the pur pose. and to superintend the erection there on, of a suitable building or buildings lor the - purposes above recited, planned, in proportion to the amount of funds which may be appropriated and set apart, or re ceived by gift for that purpose, and with a view to the convenience of future extension and improvements.” In pursuance of the act the Governor has also appointed “a Board of. Trustees, to consist of nine (9) whose duty.it shall be. Ist, to take charge of, and hold in trust, all property and claims of whatever kind, .both real and personal, belonging to said insti tution, in the name of‘ the State, and to use the same for the benefit of said institu tion, and for the promotion of the objects for which it is established. 2d. To hold in trust all donations intended for endow ments, from benevolent persons or societies, and to invest and use the same as may be directed by the donors respectively. Pro valid, That when no direction is given by the donor, the Trustees may invest in such stocks, bonds, real estate, &c., as they may deem best, with the advice and consent of the Governor. 4(1. To bring suit in their names, for any claim the institution may have, whether arising from contract or tort. 4. To prescribe all the rules and regula tions for the government of the institution, and for the reception of children, not in conflict with the laws of this State. sth. To appoint all the officers, point out their duties, and fix their salaries, and to re move from office when the incumbents fail to properly discharge their duties, or are guilty of immoral or unfaithful conduct. Oth. To make to the Governor at the end of each fiscal year an accurate and full re port of the operations and condition of the institution, and of the receipts and dis bursements for the same.” A majority of the Trustees appointed, assembled ori the 18th instant, at Macon, and organized for business. The proceed ings, in detail, were ordered to be furnish ed for publication in the newspapers of the State. Rev. 11. if. Tucker, of Atlanta, was elected President of the Board of Trus tees. Rev. Wayman 11. Potter, of Augusta, was elected Vice-President. Rev. Wm. Flynn, of Milledgeville, was 'elected Secretary and Treasurer. The undersigned was appointed to pre pare and publish an address to the people of Georgia, setting forth the nature and purposes of the institution—its claims up on t lie good will and support of the citizens of Georgia, and asking «uch information and assistance as will best promote the ob jects of this noble charity. The great civil war that was brought to a disastrous close last year, in the down fall of the Confederate cause, entailed some sacred obligations upon the survivors of that sanguinary struggle. The heroes who sleep in their bloody shrouds have completed their work. The sons of Geor gia who fell in the front of battle, or drop ped by the wayside, overcome by wounds and sickness, or perished in camp and hos pital have done their full share to give our noble State a proud name and place in his tory. Their surviving comrades, who faithfully shared the toils and sufferings of the camp, the bivouac, tlio march and the battle —many of whom carry on their persons the scars ofhononiblc service—have equally contributed to the fame of Georgri. The public service is not alone glorious when rendered in the field. Patriotic self sacrifice is not alone noble when displayed at the cannon’s mouth. It is not alone by feats of arms a State builds up a reputa tion for greatness. It is not alone by high courage and heroic fortitude her sons can show their readiness to contribute to her name and fame. The character of a State is to be estimated by the manner in which her people discharge every duty, civil and military—by the influence a proper sense of social and moral obligation exercises upon the general conduct —by the fruits that spring from these convictions. The character of a State is to ho estimated by her arts, not. loss than her arms—by her great enterprises and public works. The heart of her people speaks in her benevo lent Schemes and her charitable institu tions. Thus far the people of Georgia have nobly borne every test. While her soldiers in the field displayed all the elements of heroism, whether by courage amidst dan ger or uncomplaining fortitude amidst pri vation, her people at home were lavish of their substance, and in tlicir labors, for the common cause. The women, especially, by their pure aspirations—by their noble self-denial —by their charitable toils —by their over-active sympathies, giving all their hearts and hands and prayers to the cause—have furnished to the common his tory pages lustrous with the light of purest virtue, and established an imperishable claim to the admiration and homage of all good men. The war has ended, but its ending is but the beginning of new duties. More sacrifi ces are to be made. More labors are to be performed. More money is to be contri buted. They are necessary results of the war. They are not less sacredly binding because the Confederate flag was cloven down by superior force, and Southern wealth has been swept away in the devasta ting storm. Among the sacred duties entailed upon you, people of Georgia, is the care and mainntenance of the orphans made desti tute and helpless by this war. First in precedence of this unfortunate class, are helpless and destitute orphans of the sol diers of Georgia who fell in the cause of Southern Independence. This duty is frankly recognized by vou in the action of the last Legislature. To stimulate you to some practical action in this, your lino of duty, is the object of this address Three leading objects are here aimed at. First, to exhort every good citizen in every position, and in every vocation, to interest himself in this cause —to discuss it in his family and among his neigh bors and triends, and urge their co-operation in the good work. Es-1 pecially is it desired to enlist the holy sympathies, the kind words and wishes, and the prayers of the women of Georgia for the success of the State Orphan Home. In the happy home circles, and amidst scenes of festivity—in the marts of trade— in the contests of the forum and in t ; e halls of science, alike as in the lone spots of suffering and poverty, where helpless orphanage pines fora crust —let the voice of charity be heard. Let the busy thought pause in its earger pursuit, whether of pleasure or business, to contemplate the pr> 'blom, what Georgia owes at this ttto | men to her orphan children, and to her i own just time. Let the Pulpit and the : Press bring their potent energies to boar upon this great problem. .Second, to elicit information—specific, detailed and classified information—as to the number and condition of the children the benevolence ot the State is designed to reach. It is desirable to get information ! from each couuty in Georgia on the follow ing points : 1. The number, age and sex of destitute | orphans who have lost both parents. A* The number. a«e and sex of destitute orphans who have lost a father or mother, (specifying which parent) 3. The number, ago and sex of destitute orphans of deceased Confederate soldiers, who perished in the war. or have died since from wounds and sickness contracted during the war. 4. The number, age and sex of destitute children of living soldiers, disabled by wounds or sickness while in Confederate service. 5. The names of the fathers of these children, with the company and regiment, brigade and division in which each served, and to which he belonged at the time he was killed or disabled. G. The number, age and sex of children of “indigent and distressed parents who are unable to support them.” | Third. To invite correspondence and co-operation from all citizens who take an interest in this grcatcharity, and give prac ! tieal aid in any Way in carrying out the : purposes of the Legislature. Fourth. To invite donations of money and property to the State Orphan 1 lome. The evident purpose of the Legislature j is in due time to make the requisite appro ! priation to establish the State Orphan ! Home on a foundation solid and eternal as her granite hills, and on a scale of liberality commensuratc with the necessities of the case and the dignity of the State. It will doubtless comport with the gener ous wishes of her citizens, that the Orphan Home shall be a worthy monument of grat itude toiler heroic sons. It will equally comport with the enlightened sense of jus- I ticc of her legislators, that this Home should he erected as some slight compen sation to the children rendered destitute by the results of a policy, culminating in a civil war, which the matured judgment of the most trusted men of Georgia sanc tioned, and the State formally adopted. But it will take time to carry out these benevolent intentions on the scale contemplated. The Commission ap pointed to fix upon a location have yet to make their report to the Legislature. This will be some months hence. The ap propriations are then to be made for the erection of suitable buildings. It will take y-ears, perhaps, before these buildings will be completed. In the meantime, these destitute children are suffering. To them, time is of v ital importance. To some, it is doubtless now a question, from day to day, of bread and of physical existence. To all, it involves considerations of social comfort, of moral training, of education, and of re ligious instruction. Under any circum stances, ,it must require, first and last, large sums of money ; for the number of destitute children is most formidable. The State, with all her resources as a body politic, is financially much crippled by the war. There are many other claims on her benevolence. There is need, therefore, and instant need, of all the liberality which her citizens can individually extend to this noble charity. The Trustees are organized, and the Board is ready to put the work in motion as soon as funds, however, small in amount, are contributed. They would be glad to begin at once, if the means sup plied enabled them only to rent the most 1 humble tenement and to place the smallest ! group of destitue orphans beneath its shel ter. Even from such small 'beginnings have sprung some of the noblest institu tions of charity in Christendom. True, this appeal is made to an im poverished people, staggering painfully under heavy pecuniary burthens, whose fields were but recently laid waste, and her towns, villages and hamlets blackened by the scourge of war. But though so many of her benevolent citizens have been ruined, whose hands, in the days of their affluence, “were open as the day to melting charity-,” yet some among them were fortunate. Some wholly or partially escaped the gen eral devastation. To some public spirited citizens a little yet remains with, which to gratify their liberal impmlses. People of Georgia—the work is now with y-ou in j-our individual capacities. AYho will lead the way ? Who will make the first contribution ? As yet, the Geor gia State Orphan Home exists but on paper. To the first contributor will belong the honor of converting into form and sub stance _ this shadowy unreality—of practi cally giving “to airy nothing, A local habitation and a name.” The first stone is yet to be laid of that great charity, the Georgia State Orphan Home, which is destined to outlive the Pyramids, and be a grander monument.— The latter speak only of physical power — the aggregate of the muscular labor of millions of serfs —their involuntary tribute to the vain pomp of long-forgotten kings, But the Georgia State Orphan Home will speak to all coming ages a people’s grati tude to her martyred dead. Its founda tion is laid deep and broad in the popular heart. It must rise, slowly and amidst many difficulties; but surely and in majestic proportion. Stone by stone, and year after year, it will tower up towards Heaven. As time progresses, the children it lias shel tered will become men and women, and it is hoped, by its benign influences, educated and intelligent men and women, swelling the aggregate of virtuous industry. These will contribute in grateful words and libe ral acts to its means of usefulness, and thus will it grow stronger from generation to generation. The aid of county officers is especially invoked to obtain the statistical informa tion here called for. Through the Receiv ers of Tax Returns, the Collectors of Tax es, the Ordinaries, and the Clerks of Courts, and through such local agencies as the .Jnotices of the Inferior Courts may em ploy, this information can be obtained. All who feel disposed in any way to co operate with the Trustees in this work, are requested to address Rev. AA r m. Fly-un, Secretary and Treasurer, Milledgeville, Ga. 11 eis authorized to receive all dona tions and communications. James Gardner, In behalf of the Trustees. Augusta. July 28, 18G(i. crops. The abstract of crop returnsfor July just issued from the Department of Agriculture shows the prospect of a year of average fruitfulness. The present indications, as marked by thousands of correspondents of the department point to an average of about eight and a half tenths of an average crop in quantity of wheat, of a quality that will make it equal in value to last year’s crop. The testimony from all quarters renders it certain that, the quality will be excellent. The showing is much more favorable than in the June report. Winter barley is in very nearly the same condition as the wheat. The oat crop has been un usually good—almost beyond precedent. The condition of the pastures is generally above the average. With the exception of Maine and New Hampshire, every State- reports a greater breadth of corn than usual. A somewhat diminished average of sorghum is indicated. There is nearly an average bredth of flax. In every State more potatoes than usual were planted, which promise better than usual. The prospect for apples is not as good as usual, and no fruit upou the list makes so poor a showing as peaches. Rev. Wm. Jeff. Spears has furnished us with the following report: Having thrashed the wheat this season upon seventy farms. I find that 21 bushels to 1 sown, with few exceptions, has been the yield of the majority of the crops—a few yielding 5, while at least one third was I find the crop of corn and cotton, gen erally, about two-thirds the amount usual ly planted. Os that one third for want of culture, will not make, with favorable seasons, more than one third of a crop ; with the present drought, it cannot make one tenth. One third for the same reasoncannet yield more than half a crop ; while the other third is well cultivated. I therefore conclude that it will be impos sible to reap more than one third to one halt the usual crop. The Cincinnati Gazette learns that wheat on the sandy soil in the vicinity of Colum bus. Edinburg and Jonesville, Indiana, is much better than wa- expected, and many farmers have cut a full average crop. The grain is well filled, and will make excellent flour. The pospeet for corn in that region was never better. — Tie |( 'ovingtonE xam iner. m m During the first six months of ISGS, the Pennsylvania Central railroad carried 10,- 383 passengers, of the emigrant class, west ward.

July 26. —AA’hen the cre dentials of Patterson, of Tennessee, were read in the Senate, Sumner moved their reference to the Judiciary Committee, with instructions to inquire whether he could take the oath. Sumner said he was Judge under the Confederate Government, and therefore disqualified. After consid erable discussion, the motion was agreed to. The Seuate confirmed Gen. Sherman to Lieutenant-General, vice Grant promoted ; aud Rear-Admiral Porter as A ice-Admi ral, vice Farragut promoted. The President sent a message to the House, enclosing a communication from Secretary Seward, in reference to the ap plication to the British Government for the release of Fenians, and also, as to the discharge of those indicted in the United States. The matter has been referred to the Attorney General, and it is probable that they will not be prosecuted. A resolution passed employing Miss Minnie Ream to execute a life size statue of Lincoln, for which she is to be paid ten thousand dollars. A bill passed granting lands to a Com pany to build a Railroad from Missouri and Arkansas to the Pacific coast, about the line 35th parallels. The House made awards to the captors of Booth and Harrold, giving Col. Conger $13,000, and cutting down detective Colonel Baker’s to $3,750. Stevens said that Ba ker made more money out of the war than any one else, and he was opposed to giving him anything. Banks’ resolution modifying the neutral ity laws, passed by a unanimous vote. AVasiiington, July 20. —A Board of Officers has been appointed by tlie Com missioner on Freedmen affairs, for the pur pose of revising regulations for the govern ment of Bureau, and to meet requirements of the recent act of Congress, extending duration of the Bureau two years. Gens. Tillson, Sprague, and Gregory constitute the Board. The Secretary of State gave a dinner party to the Tennessee delegation. Among those present were Gov. Sharkey and Gov. Parsons, of Alabama. Resignation of Secretary Harlan—.. Jeffe rson Davis and ilie Assassination Plot. Washington, July 27.—Mr. Harlan, this afternoon, in a brief but courteous note to the President, resigned his office as Sec retary- of the Interior. The Senate passed a bill for the admis sion of Nebraska. Also, a joint resolution so modifying the test oath as to permit Senator Patterson, of Tennessee, to take his seat. This requires the concurrence of the House. Tlie House disagreed to the Senate amendment of the Civil Appropriation bill, appropriating $1,500,000 for repairing the Mississippi levees; also, by- a large majori ty, voted down the proposition to increase the salaries of members of Congress from $3,000 to $5,000. The House Judiciary Committee made a report today relative to the alleged com plicity of Jefferson Davis in the assassina tion of President Lincoln ; wherein they state it is notorious that the said Davis is guilty of the crime of treason, according to the Constitution and laws of tlie United States, and the Committee are of the opinion that there are ’no obstacles toa speedy and impartial trial, which can be removed by legislation. The evidence in the possession of the Committee, connect ing Jefferson Davis in tlie assassination of President Lincoln justifies the Committee iu saying that there is probable cause to believe that he was privy to the measures which led to the com mission of the deed, but the investigations which have been made by the AVar De partment and tlie Committee have not re sulted in placing the Government in pos session of all the facts in the case. It is probable, however, that the further prose cution of tlie investigation by the Com mittee, and the officers of the Government, will result finally in the full development, of i»ie whole transaction. The capture of the rebel archives has put the Government in possession of a mass of papers, letters, and documents, of various kinds, only a a portion of which has as yet been exam ined. Congressional. AVashington, J uly 28.—The Senate has confirmed the appointment of O, 11. Brown ing as Secretary of Interior, in place of Harlan. Both Houses-remnined in session all night. In the House, this morning, Stevens made a speech on the bill introduced by him lately, to restore the States to their proper relations in the Union, in which lie advocates the principles heretofore set down by him with regard to equal rights, and declaring in favor of giving negroes the same privileges as whites. The civil and miscellaneous appropria tion bill after a long struggle by the Con ference Committee, was concurred in, the vote on adopting this report being very close. It increases the compensation of members, and lias appended to it tlie bill equalizing bounties. Patterson was ad mitted to a seat in the Senate this morn ing on taking tlie prescribed oath of office. The House last night, by a large niajori ty, refused to modify tlie test oath in his favor. A bill for tlie admission of Nebras ka, passed the House, and goes to tlie President for approval. Defrees has been removed from tlie position of public prin ter. and General Steedman apppointed to that office. Adjournment of Congress. AYasiiington. July 28. —Gen. Dix has been confirmed as Minister to the Hague. Air. Eogers, of New Jersey submitted a report this morning in the House, as a minority of the Judiciary C ommittee in the case of Mr. Jefferson Davis. He takes the ground that much of the testimony before tlie Committee, tending to connect Air. Davis with the assassination plot, was false, and that lie should have a preliminary hearing, to which every man is entitled. In the Senate, this morning, a resolution was passed, after Constitutional discussion, granting the use of a recently erected wooden building, on Pennsylvania avenue, in this city, for any lawful purpose, but especially for meetings held with a view to the liberation of Ireland. The credentials of Harlan, Senator elect from lowa for six years from the 4th of Alarch next, were presented, and ordered to lie on tlie table. This afternoon, both houses adjourned, sine die.

The seat of war this time is in Gonaives, which was immediately taken by the insurgents, and from what we hear, the entire plain of the Artobinite must be now in their hands. St. Marc, however, still holds out for tlie Government of Geffrard. From the North above Gonaives, we of course hear nothing, but it appears that this affair is rather more serious than any other yet. AVe hear rumor upon rumor, but can scarcely at present say anything reliable. later. r The following is a postscript of a letter from a mercantile friend in Port au Prince, dated July 9. It was probably but a ru mor prevailing in the capital: “Ave have just heard that the rebels have been beaten back by the St. Marc people (probably the Government troops is meant), and the leader killed. Also, that the house and stores of J. B. Daprey, of Gonaives, have been plundered. ’ ’ Still another letter says that Geffrard s commander at Gonaives was obliged to take reiuge at the office of the French Con sul. A gentleman just from Hayti says that the Island at present is in a wretched con dition, with business in great part at a stand still. Maury is in Paris tlying to sell his tor pedo to Louis Napolon. financial and tfommrrrial. REVIEW OF TilK AllilSTA MARKET, FOR THE WEEK ENDING JULY 28TH, 1866. [Tt should he home in mind that our quotations represent wholesale prices. Small hills, to J'hmters and others, are filled at a shade higher rates.] REMARKS.—Since our last review this section lias been visited by refreshing showers, and crops have assumed a much more cheering aspect. Corn, on high, gray lands, was too far gone to derive much benefit from rains, but on clay soils, and especially on low lands which were plant ed late, there is yet a fair prospect. Cotton, which was almost a month later than usual, has been injured less than Corn, and with a favorable fall, may make something like a third of a crop in this part of the State. Trade has been quiet during the week, with, few new features worthy of note. Very little new wheat has come to market. The drought, which threatened to ruin the corn crop, lias, doubtless, induced those who may have a surplus to hold on to it, but it is not believed that tliero will be much wheat for sale within reach of this market. The steady spirit of improvement to which wo referred a few weeks ago, is manifest in the erection of new stores, and warehouses, and in general repairs and renovations. One of our builders assures us that there is more evidence of solid ad vancement in Augusta than he lias known formally years. Rents are 30 to 50 per cent, higher than last year, and the demand for stores and houses is quite extraordin ary. COTTON.—At the close of our last re view, our market closed with a good de mand at the following quotations; Low Middling : 2S@— Middling 29@30 Strict Middling 31(<i) — Good Middling 32® — These have been the prevailing rates dur ing tlio week, the steamer’s news having littlo or no effect bn tlio market. Wo hear of some transactions at slightly higher rates, but do not feel authorized to change tlio quotations. STOCKS OF COTTON.

THE attention of cotton I PLANTERS Is invited to the claims of this invention, wnfch, in SIMPLICITY, ECONOMY, DURABILITY and POWER, surpasses any machine for Baling Cotton ever before presented to the country. Its great excellence in these respects makes it THE BEST MACHINE FOR PACKING COTTON IN THE WORLD I 1. ITS SIMPLICITY.—It is anew and improved applica tion of the Screw Power; just as simple in its construction as the old fashioned wooden screw, as easily managed, and no more liable to get out of order. No ropes or puiliesas used in the cotton presses. 2. ITS ECONOMY.—It has been demonstrated by actual experiment to be cheaper than the wooden screw. The tim bers used in its construction are much smaller and fewer than those employed in the old screw ; the levers being only Id feet long, and the height of the whole frame aliove the bed being only 10 feet. All these timbers can be procured on the plan tation, no matter how exhausted the forest. Any ordinary wood workman can build the frame, and half a dozen hands will put it up in a few hours. 3. ITS DURABILITY.—The Screw and Nut are of iron, and will last for years without any appreciable wear. The whole machine occupies so little space that it can be com pletely covered ut very small cost. J. ITS POWER. Wit )i a lever only sixteen feet long, one mule is sufficient for Hacking the heaviest bales. Planters who have used it say tnat, with two mules, cotton may ho compressed on this machine for shipment. This Screw was invented just before the opening of the war, and has subsequently never been very generally introduced. Those who hove used it and seen it used, unanimously' concur in the opinion that it is UNRIVALLED AS A COTTON SCREW. The following testimonials from some of the best and most reputable planters in the country show the estimate in which this Screw stands with those who have tried it : We have used and seen in operation for the last five years, Wright's Improved Cotton Iron Screw, and feel no hesitation in pronouncing it the very best Cotton Screw we have ever known. So highly do we esteem it, that, if practicable to ob tain one or them, we would have no other. It is easily built, simple in its construction, not liable to get out of order, packs well, with great power and with great facility. Edward T. Shepherd, it. Y. Banks, Elkanah Pace. W. 11.
