The Macon Messenger says that every day poor fellows are reaching Macon, af ter traveling hundreds of miles anil spend ing their last dollar, in the expectation of securing limbs immediately. They are disappointed in not finding Dr. Bly ready to attend to their orders, and are obliged to wait, at hiavy expense, or return disap pointed. Dr. Bly will doubtless give pub -1 ic notice when lie is ready to fill orders. The Existence of the Sun. An exchange calls attention to tho fact that an eminent mathematician lias de molished various theories of solar heat, and demonstrated that for 30,000,000 years tocouie the sun will continue to afford suf ficient caloric to sustain human life upon the surface of the earth. This Is about as long as any of us will be personally in terewtisl in the matter, and the prospect of our descendants being frozen to death is too remote to cause any serious uneasiness. Death of Lewis I.cvy, Esq. We an again called on to announce the death of another old and respected citizen. Mr. I.owis Levy, for many years a resi dent of the city, died on yesterday, af ter a brief illness. He was a promi nent member of the Hebrew Society, and filled many positions ofpublic responsibili ty, having been for several years a magis trate, and whether in that capacity, or as a merchant and citizen, he Illustrated in a bhim -less and useful life,the tenets of the faith of liis fathers. I,wik out for Them. The Macon papers caution tho police of the dill, rent towns anil cities to be on their guard for two horse thieves who are loiter ing through tlie country on foot, with a blanket or two, anil a few clothes in a sad dle. bug. They appear very rusty and poor sleeping in outhouses, and in negro kitchens, anil yet have large amounts of money. They are both stout men, one having a red head which lie lately dyed at Talbutton. A reward of (500 is out for tho rod headed worthy, for tho murder of a man in Jones county. They hail from Mouth Carolina, anti are a braco of danger ous scamps. Our fails. C..n we not- asks Miss Mulock—since, While tho power of the world is with men, the influence lies with women—can wo not bring up our girls moro useful andless showily—less dependent on lux ury and wealth ? fan xve not teach them from babyhood that to labor is a higher thing than merely to enjoy ; that even en joyment itself is never so sweet os when it has been earned ? fan wo not put Into their minds, whatever may bo their stations, principles of truth, simplicity of taste, helpfulness, hatred of waste, and, those beii firmly rooted, trust to their blossom ing up in whatever destiny the young maiden may lie called to. Farming anil Stuck liaising. The movements being inaugurated In various sections of tho Statu for the forma tion of n p ricult nral societies are very cheer ing indications. In Homo localities espe cial attention is being directed to sheep and stock raising. This ought to be an inviting field to all Southerners who arc possscssed still ofricli and abundant lands and means enough to improve their cattle, sheep, hogs and horses, foinpnmtivcly little labor is run wired for this business, and if pursued with good judgment and industry it will be found in a short time to furnish the means of living to a greater number of people and with greater pleasure and profit to liio owners than anything else. Wester 11 Emigration. The Columbus .Sit n notices the passage through that city of txvo families 011 their ■way to Texas. A number are preparing to leave that city for Mississippi. The Wist Xewnan Herald states that large numbers of negroes are leaving that part of Georgia, ostensibly for Toimessie, Arkansas and Mississippi, allured axvay by tempting of fer* of high wages, it says that about txvo hundred— men, xvomen anil children — have boon itidneed to leave Coweta county xvithin the last six weeks. Tho drain upon our population is rer lainly very unfortunate, anil its effects up. on the future of our old commonwealth net pleasant to contemplate. A Fox Outwitted. The Telegraph tells of an artist for Har per's Weekly named Fox, xvlio obtained among other tilings some valuablo books from l.eo Jordan, near MiUedgeville, du ring Sherman's march to the sea. A friend of Mr. Jordon's being in Noxv York recent ly, met Fox, xvho showed him various Southern relies, among which was a book xvith Mr. Jordan'smunein it, under which xvas written— I "Procured by Stanley Fox, artist for Harper's Weekly. ' This gentle man coolly tooK it pen and xxwote imme diately "beloxv it—“ Re-captured by 1.. W. Buffington," and told Mr. Fox that he thought the original owner entitled to it, and ho would convey it to him. Mr. Jor dan noxv has tho volume in his possession. Plant Trees. If “tho man xvho makes two blades of grass to grow xvhero but one grew before" is the true benefactor —as tho old adage avers -how much greater service to man kind is rendered by those xvlio plant flowers and fruit trees—the one contributing to make houto attractive, and the other afford ing in due time a substantial dividend in dollars and cents for the care bestowed up on them. Tho season of the year best suited to transplanting, is noxv at hand, and a very limited expenditure will yield a return of beauty and enjoyment which xx ilI amply repay all trouble and expense. Bulbus roots planted now will bloom in early spring ; strawberries also xvili yield, oven the first season, a lucious return for the care of planting ; xvhile only two or three years arc required to produce limits of almost every variety. Even those xvlio live on rented premises will be repaid lor attention given to this subject; and even ifthey are not, the pleasure which their expanding growth and beauty affords, is ample reward for the limited attention they require. Therefore let everybody plant flowers and fruit trees. Stock Raising in Tennessee, The Galiatin (Summer county) Examiner prints tlie account of sales of stock bv Mr. C. E. Douglass, in that county, last xveek, of some stock of bis own raising, which xvas a surplus, and "sold for no fault," but as so much ordinary income from his farm products. The sale included ten horses, marcs and colts, at an average, of $222 25 per head—a. number pf hogs, Essex breed, sold from sl7 to {'ll) each—a lot of Southdown sheep, at from $8 to $25 per head. The total sale amounted to $4, - 800. Portions of Georgia are nearly, if not quite, as well adapted to stcx-k raising as Tennessee. Our mountain region, as well ns the wire grass country, is peculiarly adapted for sheep-raising, and there is no good reason why the w 001-elip should not be as valuable as the cotton crop. Increas ed attention to stock of all kinds is de manded by the peculiar situation of the country. The first step is to get rid of the scrub animals that infest the country. This must be done by improving the breed, and by keeping stock well-housed and well-fed in winter. The purest blood ed animals on earth will very soon dete riorate if left to browse in the woods, ex posed to the Weak winter weather, with only an occasional handful of coarse shucks, or half-cured hay,so-called, much of which isgatliered after the blade is dead, and affords little nutriment. Better keep one or two cows, and keep them well —than a dozen of Pharaohs loan kine, who have to lean against the side of ihe barn to cast a respectable shadow. Much might, and we believe ought to be, written on this subject; but our present purpose is to call attention to the aliove evidence shat stock-raising may be made profitable in this country, and throw out a hint or two for the thoughtful to reflect upon. A Homestead I.aw. The Richmond Enqn-rer is warmly urg ing the adoption of a liberal homestead law for Virginia. The condition of the country at this time affonls convincing illustration of the importance and justice of such a law in Georgia. While the present exemption might in clude a very mean hovel in the country, any sort of a domicil in our towns and ci ties would exceed in value the sum em braced within its provisions. Is there any justice in exempting even the humblest farmer's home, while the cot of the town laborer or mechanic is subject to levy and sale? The whole exemption is little ilet ter than a sham ; for real estate of the value of two hundred dollars is now inadequate to support or even decently shelter a fami ly. It was doubtless otherwise when the State was first settled. Then the average valuation of a log-cabin and fifty acres of the best lands would have come within the amount embraced in the present law. Then, there were few towns —the chief in terest of the country being the cultivation of the soil. Anew order of things now ex ists; and the policy of extending encour agement to tho location of a permanent population, and of fostering tho arts, is too apparent to need argument. California lias a homestead law covering a home worth (5,000 j New York, (1,200; and some of the other States similar laws, designed to cover a comfortable domicil. If such a law had existed in Georgia, previous to the war, there would he less necessity for acts of special relief for tho people from their old obligations. If the homes of the peo ple were exempt from sale fur debt neither the material interests of the country nor the ■comfort of families would be wholly sacrifi ced in the greedy scramble of creditors for the collection of old indebtedness. A homestead l<iw conduces to the stabili ty, as well as respectability of a popula tion ; developing those elevated and en nobling home sentiments which greatly adorn the character. We therefore hope to see a bill presented to our next Legisla ture so enlarging the exemption law of Georgia as to make it of some practical value in the future. Shocking Affair. A freed man named Harry Thomas was killed in Columbia county early on yester day morning, under the following circum stances : It appears that Thomas was act ing as overseer on a plantation owned by two Northern men, and a few days ago had a dilliculty with a man named in which he knoeked Smith down with a brick. Thomas came to Augusta and laid the affair before Gen. Tillson, who turned him over to the civil authorities of Colum bia county, givinghima lettertotho sheriff. Thomas returned, and was at his own house on Monday night, when it appears that the house was surrounded by a largo number of armed persons, who demanded admittance. He told them to wait until ho dressed, and his wife says she immediate ly ran out of the back part of tho house, thinking to divert attention from her hus band, who started out on the other side. She says she was fired upon, anil stopped, when tier husband fired on one of the party, and in return received a volley caus ing his death. His body was pierced by nineteen bullets, This is the version given by the military authorities, and while we have not heard thoother side of the affair, it is evident that a great outrago lias been committed. Whatever tho offense of Thomas, ho was in tlie hands of the civil authorities, and there was no excuse l'or tho manner in which redress was sought. Sucli contempt for law is not only wrong, but inflicts grievous injury upon tho whole South. While it is deplored by all good citizens, it gives capital to our enemies, and affords an argument for those who charge that we are not disposed to do justico to tho negro. We learn that a detachment has been sent ont to arrest tho parties to this outrage, and xve hope that full and im partial justice may bo meted out to- them. Since tho above was written, a report lias reached us that Thomas was killed by a man who xwis assaulted by him some timo ago, and had just recovered from liis in juries, and that only one or txvo friends ac companied him in his visit to the house of Thomas. Presentments by the Grand Jury of Rich, mend County. The Grand Jury of the second xvoek find but few matters of interest to recommend to the attention of the Court, save those especially mentioned by His Honor, tlie Judge, in his eloquent* and impressivo charge. We are informed that (lie Jury Box needs a thorough revision ; that the list at present contains the names of a num ber of persons (many of xvhom were regularly drawn at the present term) who are no longer to he numbered among our citizens—some being dead, others having removed from the county. The frequency with xvlilch tlie performance of Jury duty lias, of late, fallen upon the same indi viduals, urges us to this recommendation. A great change lias taken place in tho .status of the community within the last fexv years, and a largo number of com paratively new residents have taken up their abode among us. These should, in justice, be required to share the duties, while they enjoy the privileges of citizens, ana xve recommend that the re quisite instructions be given tlie oflieers ot tho Inferior Court, whose duty xve believe it is, that the names of non-residents be dropped from tho Jury Box, and those of new citizens added to the list to fill their places. A change in the time oQ the session of the Superior Court for this county would, also, add greatly- to the convenience of the citizens, and xve think, also, to that of the Court. Under the present arrangement both Terms occur during the business sea sons of the year, at a time xvhen the busi ness of both" tho planter and the merchant must suffer much from his absence anti the length of the sessions, and the large amount of business usually" transacted by this Court, justifies us in requesting that the time appointed for its sessions be so arranged as to gix'o as little inconvenience as possible to our citizens. We would, therefore, suggest to our Senator and Rep resentatives to solicit the Legislature to change the time to the second Mondays in January and June. A late change made by tlie Legislature in the law, regarding the payment of juries in civil oases, it is found by experience re sults in depriving juries of all payment for their services and time. This is so mani festly unjust to that class of our citizens, particularly, xvho reside at a distance from 1 he county seat, and xvho are at considerable expense, as well as inconvenience, during the time their services are required, that xve trust a recommendation to our Senator and Representatives to bring the matter to the attention of the legislature, xxill result in a favorable change in the law. The old law provided, xve believe, for tho payment of one dollar per day to each juryman, to be paid out of the County Treasury, on the certificate of the Clerk of the Court, and this laxv seems to us the most satisfactory. As regards the subject of education, on which so much has been said in Grand Jury presentments, xve would simply urge upon our county authorities renewed and continued efforts to obtain possession of our beautiful Academy and its belongings, xvhieh arc still in possession of the milita ry authorities. The state of our communi ty is not now such as to require an armed force in our midst to preserve order. Our police regulations seem to bo amply suffi cient for that purpose, xvhile the Arsenal and grounds, near the citv, belonging to the Government, xve should think amply sutlieient for their accommodation and amply convenient for all purposes requir ed. With these few remarks, and with a cordial endorsement of the points brought to your consideration by the Grand Jury of the first week, we close our labors, with thanks to His Honor, Judge Hook, for his kindness and consideration, and also take groat pleasure in commending the marked ability and zeal with which the interests ofthe State arc represented by ourable aud indefatigable Solicitor General, John P. C. Whitehead. William S. Roberts. Foreman. Kerr Bovee, Jesse W. Rankin, Chas. W.' Crane, Wiley B. Griffin, Joseph J. Lathrop. Henry I. Leon, Geo. tV. Bouchillon,Chas.'H. Phinizy, Win. B. Dawson, Wm. J. Mealing, Tints. G. Barret, Thos. G. Hopkins, John J. Clayton, David H. Van Buren, Joseph N. Taliaferro,'.H. H. D'Antignac, Charles A. Rowland. The above General Presentment of the Grand Jury having been read in open Court, aud it being the desire of that body that they should be published, on motion ofthe Solicitor General, ordered that pub lication bo made of them in the papers of the City of Augusta.

[lt should be borne in mind that our quotations represent wholesale prices. Small bills, to Planters and others, are filled at a shade higher rates, j REMARKS.—Business has been quite ac tive during the week, and the receipts of cotton by wagons have been large. The dry goods market is firm and active, with an advancing tone, owing to the recent ad vance in cotton. The provision market during the week lias been steady, with an advance in corn and flour, which are scarce and in demand. There has been an im provement in bacon, and stocks are much reduced, especially in strictly prime meat, which is in active request. The weather has been delightful all the week, affording the planters a fine oppor tunity for gathering their crops, and great ly favoring the development of late cotton. Reports from the cotton districts are more favortible than they have been for several weeks, and with two or three more weeks of good weather the opinion appears to be general that somethiifg like a third of a crop, or 1,500,000 bales, will be realized. COTTON.—We left our market quiet on the morning of our last report—all parties waiting for Liverpool advices—the ruling prices being for middling, 36 cents; strict middling, 36}@37 cents; good middling to middling fair, 37i cents.
