AcmiccuTKAX Fair —The Committee appointed lor the purpose of arranging for nu Acrtctiltural Fair io tlii city have is sued the foUoYriiy; circular to the people of Richmond ciuoty: ft is evident to the thinking men of our emu inanity that, since the cioro of the war, Augusts has not shown that activity and effort ia her commercial relations that she did in olden times; that wWle citi zens have been content to rest upon her former prestige of position and influence, oritrr places have progressed in prosperity almost unknown in our history. OflrAfr ricuhoral H s iety, foelicg the importance of not only extending the interest in Agri cultural, Mechaoica 1 , and Commercial re lations, and a great desire loc-ncourage our citizens generally to a spirit of enterprise, have deemed it important to the interest of the tjiiy of Augusta and State of Georgia, that a zealous interest should be taken in the Agricultural Fair which we propose to have during the coming Fall, ami have ap pointed a Committee who will ca.l upon the citizens for material aid, for prizes and ouch other expenses as may he necessary for the occasion. YV'c intend tbi« Fair to be worthy of the County and State, and hope that every person will feel the importance of its suc cess, and subscribe liberally when called upon by the Committee. Every merchant, however small h.s business, is interest*] in any enterprise that will call together the j,< ople of the neighboring country to.Au gu-.ta. Jj t Augusta lead off in thi*. as she should do in all good works, and hold out liberal inducements to our friends in tlie adjoining Districts of 'outh Carolina to unite with us also, for the restoration of our former prosperity.

YVarhen, George Sibley, CoUUUtlltt, Tiie Superior Court.—The Superior Court for the county of Richmond met Thursday morning it ten o’clock in pur suance with its adjournment of the previ ous day. No business of importance was transacted ; the whole morning being spent in taking orders, etc. At one o’clock the Court adjourn* and until five o’clock in the evening, and soon after meeting at tho lat ter hour adjourned until next June. This Court, at tin: time of its adjournment, had been in session for nearly eight wee s—tho longest session, we believe, on record. 1 hit ing this time an immense amount of business lias been finished, and nearly all the. cases disposed of which have been standing on tho docket for so long a time— some of then) prior to the commencement of hostilities. The Railway Kings in Council Several railway Presidents and Superm ini denis: arrived in the cdy Thursday and are the gues’s of the Planters’ Hotel.— During the day they hold a meeting, for tho purpose, we believe, of effecting o cliang ■ in the present railroad schedule going North. The following named gentle men were present: Mr. Collior, President ol tho Petersburg & YVeldon Railroad; Mr. Charles Ellis, President of tho Rich inond Si Petersburg Railroad; General YVtliiam Mcßae, General Superintendent of the YV’ilmington & Manchester Railroad; ami Mr. 11. T. Peako, General Superin tendent of the South Carolina Railroad. Y\e understand lhat at til • meeting held it was determined to change tho prescut schedule us soon as possible, so that the “through” passenger train from YYost Point to YVilmington will leave this city at six o’clock in the morning instead of three, as it has heretofore, and the eight o’clock a. m , passouger train will not leave until nine a. ur., an hour la er than at present. Douohehtv County.—A private letter front a friend in Dougherty county has this item of general interest; “1 am very busy in my crop, and doing as well ns could be expected. My hands are nil working well. The farmers through this Mo tion are nil in a forward siato of preparation. Corn up with all of us, and 1 find, as a general rule, all are planting enough grain to do them. If they have not i lidged themselves too deeply for ma nures which may not succeed according to thru ixo otatiuns, they willhold the whip hand still with the cotton the coming sea son, lor a man who has plenty to eat at home will not lie seared into sacrificing his crop. 1 think our farmers are getting wi-er, and, although m ghtily tempted by Lthe high | rices ol cotton, are still provid- Lug in some measure for a reverse. Teh l'" M - - . J Lay Representation.— The Methodist Episcopal Church of the United States, it is announced, will, next June, decide the question whether the laity shall hereafter he admitted as delegates to the conferences. Yll the members of tho Church, male and female, will vote; and in order to ascertain, in an informal way, tho views of the dc mmiu ation on ihe subieot, a series t f maps meetings of friends of the oltauge will he lo Id through the country. Savannah ani> Charleston Hail- I roai>. —The Directors of the Savannah & i Charloston Railroad Company, at a meet itijt held ia Charleston on Saturday oven ip ir. ff7ih ult.) elected Mr. Hentley i). 1 Hasell. President of the Company, aud S. ! \Y. Fisher, Secretary and Treasurer. Mr. j .1, 11 Hoyleston will aot as President pro 1 frm until Mr. Hasell makes his arrange- > meats to assumo the duties of his office. The w rk ol reconstruction will be com- | mene.'d immediately at the Coosavratchic , river, and will be pushed forward as fast j as possible. It is the intention of the Pi- | roe ors to make contracts for the rebuilding of the bridge at the Savannah river, and 1 of the road from thanee to Savannah, so that the various sections of the work uiay go on simultaneously. White Immigration to South Caro- ‘ :u -The lialtim >ro Sun of Tuesday says that a large number of foreign i migrants have !if. N. v, Turk within the lv-t i w days to try their fortunes in the S luiheru States. A majority of them were young and healthy moo and women from Germany, and the remainder were Irish, English and French. South Carolina was the destination of most ol’ them, and in m >si rises the emigrants bad come to this 1 ceuntiy under the auspices of some of the Southern emigrant companies.who are try ing to attract labor and capital from Europe, to aid in the development of the Southern country. Aukicttut ral Statistics oe the Cot ion States —The last annual report of the A ‘u.tural Bureau, just published, .. v ■ a* -no- up to the close of the year 1 My these wc see the proportion of bio i : ed to cotton and corn, in the wh >:• ->unberof acres cultivated in the Cotton .'tavs. was forty-tour prr cent, for cottou a'i i dory-eight for corn. Georgia had i" .’-three and forty. The average cotton product i'i thes * States was 190 pound* io i • 1,70*1 in the hand. Get rgiapr '.. tITo to the aero and I,WO to the baud, ii.nii-.doa gave the largest prooeet— AVt guilds to the acre and 2,dv)o to the hand. M ages in Georgia averaged, exclusive of rations, in men, #f>s for women, and for boys. • In ISOS, they were so.>, #boand#u7. I sternatiohal Coinage —The French tl verament, giving oocular demonstration 1 auty and adaptability of the universal coinage it has so long sought to introduce, has '?tit to the government of othor lead ing countries specimens of the new coin ings. struck at Parts, in accordance with the resolutions adopted by the International Commission at Paris on the 19th of Febru ary, 1868 The 25 franc piece greatly resembles the Eoglish sovereign, with the value of a pound sterhag. It is. also, in some re spects, like the American half eagle, and the Austrian gold piece of 10 florins. The Belgian, Swiss and Italian Governments have already received these new coins, as they are included in the agreement formed by the International Commission, and specimens are on their way to London, Berlia, Vienna, and Washington. 1 lakly Vegetables —The Charltsttu AVirx, of Thursday, says that, the season ; for shipping vegetables from Charleston to i the Nortn has just I cgon, and if our farmers have been wise and have planted 1 largely for the Northern market, they will ' pocket a handsome amount of money dur j iDg the next two or three months. The first shipment of greeo peas raised in the i vicinity of Charleston was made yesterday by Mr. YViliism Hunt, on the steamship ! Charlatan, for New Yo-k. YVe are io j formed that this is the first shipment of the kind made in March for a number of | years. i The removal of Governor YY elles by Gen. 1 Stoneroan in Virginia, seems to give great | satisfaction in the Old Dominion. It shows 1 a strange state of things when civilians lrave to rejoice over self-assumed military ! government, rather than that which is nominally of a civil character. But the truth is, men like YVelles, of Virginia, and Bullock, of Georgia, are like the plagues of Egypt. They represent neither their Sta'e a , the people nor the Federal Govern rnent. Setfish, obstinate, ambitions, their j own advancement seems to be the great , object of their lives. Neither the people | of Virginia nor Georgia would tolerate such | men if left free to choose their own ruler-, i or if wisely governed by their masters in : Congress. YVaruen County Court.—The Spring term of the Superior Court for Warren county, which should meet next week, has been adjourned over until some time in the months of June or July. We suppose due notice will be given of the time of its sitting. “ Prnuo Laws.—We are indebted to the compiler for a copy of “Public Laws passed by the General Assembly of the State of Georgia at its regular session of 1806, with an appendix containing the Government of Georgia and Court calen dar; compiled by Z. D. Harrison, and published by J. J. Toon, Franklin Print ing Hou»e, Atlanta. Price #1 00 —sold by book dealers. Fiendish Murder. — A correspondent writing us from Washington, YVilkes county, gives us the particulars of a most foul assassination. He informs us that a most fiendish and horrible murder was committed about twelve miles from Wash ington, YVedoesday night last, in the di rection of Lexington. As Mr. Thomas Thaxtoo, a member of the special jury, and detained as such by the Court, was re turning home in his buggy last night about 8 o’clock, when within a quarter of a mile of his home, he was firetd on, thiee balls taking effect in his neck and bead, and died immediately. Mr. Thaxton was a sober, quiet, and peaceable citizen, without a known enemy in the county, either amoog black or white. No clue to the perpetra tors of this foul deed have been discover ed, though suspicion rests upon two or three negro men who had threatened the life of another tuau, and it is thought, killed Mr. Thaxton through mistake. It is to he hoped no dilligenc-; wiil be spared iu finding out the parties guilty of this shocking affair. * Reading his own Obituary.—Andrew Johnsou is one of the men who has had the oppor unity of reading his own obituary. In the LaCros.se Democrat of March 26th, we find a highly complimentary editorial article on tho death of Mr. John son, who still lives to battle against ltadi cali-tn Brick likens the ex-President to Washington. The. Cabinet—lts Religious Faith. Otic of tho Washington Jenkenses gives the religious frith of Grant’s Cabinet as follows : “Attorney General Hoar is a Uni tarian, Secretary of the Interior Cox is a Swedenborg,ian, Secretary of the Navy Boric is a Catholic, ex-Secretary of State YVashburno is a Universalist, Secretary of State Fish is a Dutch Reformer, cx-Seere tary Stewart is a Presbyterian, and Post masler-General CresweU eschews churches altogether. The religious faith of Bout well hnd Rawlins is not yet known to fame. Grant t) family are Methodists, and that is the church which he usually attends.” The Augusta Postoeeick. Foster Blodgett, recently re unpointed Postmaster at this place, arrived in tho city on Fri day night irotn YVasliiugtun, and on Sat urday morning took possession of the Postoffice. William C. Dilion, ex-Chief of tic Blodgett Police, has, we learn, been appointed Deputy Postmaster. Superintendent Johnson.—Tho At lanta Constitution, referring to a run-off on the Georgia Railroad, twenty-eight miles from this city Friday hist, pays the follow ing compliment to tho executive abilities of our friend, S. K. Johnson, Esq., Super intendent of the Georgia Railroad, every word of which we cordially endorso : "This is the tirat accident that has oc curred on this road for over twelve months. This road was never in better condition or managed with more ability. The Assistant Superintendent, S. K. Johnson, is winning credit for himself as a ‘model’ officer, who, possessing a keen spirit, 'seizes the prompt occasion, makes thought start iuto instant action, and at once plans and performs, resolves and ex ecutes.’ ” A Love Letter. —Below we publish an epistle evidently written by a cupid-strick on swaiu to the object of his adoration. We publish just as it is written, verbatim , et literatim, and believe that it will be I found equal to anything ever written by Thackeray’s famous hero —Jearnes Yellow- ! plush, Esq. It was picked up iu the city i yesterday, and it is thought that it fell i from the pocket of a gentleman (name un- - k’.iowu) who was on a visit to Augusta, and who, it is said, holds an important of j fieial position under Governor R. R. Meott, in the neighboring State of South Carolina. , The original is kept at this office and we 1 pub&.-h a copy in order that if it meets the , eye of its author he may cal! aud recover 1 his property after, ofcour.se. paying adver tising charges.

YY'e have no doubt that all over the State the Democrats have elected their canditatds, if th<>y have worked as hard as they should have done. In our own city— for a long while considered the Radical ! stronghold—we are gratified to be able to announce that this election has resulted in a Democratic vic’ory, nearly as great as that one which was gained in the munici pal election last Dieember. YVe have elected a Democratic Magistrate in every YY'arJ in the City, and have elected every Constable »ave one, in the Second YY T ard, where the ticket was so bally split that it was a wonder we did not lose b>th Out of four Magistrates and eight Constables, we elected all, save one of the latter. Eleven Democrats el c:ed to one Scalawag, is a pretty good day’s work for the “Radical stronghold.” The election passed off very quietly— more so than any that his been held since the war—though the people seemed to take great interest in it and there was an unusually large vote cast on such an occa sion. The only disturbances that we could hear of were at the Fourth YY r ard polls, where a belligerent nogro named Gardner, drew a “navy six’’ on Mr. B. F Johnson, but was prbthptly disarmed by the police and carried to the Court House ; at the Third YVard polls where a negro named Mitchell, who had previously voted in the Second YY r ard, took the oath and attempt ed to vote again, when he was detected and arrested; and at the First YY ard polls where a negro named Gutchins was arrest ed for attempting to vote, as it was be lieved that he lived in the Second YVard, hut being taken to the City Hail, examin ed and found to be all right, he was releas ed from custody and allowed to return and deposit his ballot. There were but very few drunken men ou the ground and the day passed away in a most orderly manner. The polls in the different YVards were open at about eight o’clock in the morning, save in the Second, where the opening was de layed until nine o’clock, and were closed at five in the evening. The managers of the election had the votes counted as soon as the polls were closed. The following is the vote in the different YVards of the city: In the First Word for Magistrates- John L Ejl-s, Dein., regular nominee 292 Won Edney, Dem.. Independent 39 SS Pardue, Scalawag 274 For Constables.

The re sult is as follows : E. F. Verdery, 56 votes; Jehn Skinner, 29 ; Irwin Hicks 87; John Newman, 68; Taylor Y\ 7 ard, 27. Number of votes cast 87. (Jeorgla Items.

This will con stitute another Kuklux outrage for the Builock-Blodgett-Butler Reconstruction scheme Bullock will doubtless offer the accustomed #5.000 reward for tho perpe trator of this Ku-klux outrage on a ‘Toil sisteron.” Bard says that the reason Bullock does not keep house is that, as he professes to be in favor of negro equality, lie would be obliged to entertain colored people in his parlor and at his table. In order to avoid this, he boards at the National Hotel. Tho Cuthbert Appeal says the tax col lector of Jasper County went to Chicago, we mean Atlanta, witn $4,000 of public funds.

The Columbus Sun says that tho farm- j ers of Webster county, Ga , are sound on the provision question. We learn that i last fall they put in a larger breadth of 1 wheat than ever before, and that it is looking better than usual at this time of the year. * The crop prospects in Mitchell, Miller j and Decatur oounties, is represented as ! very flattering. While it is difficult to form a correct idea at this early day, yet experienced farmers pronounce the crops at this season of the year better than they have ever known them, especially corn. The cotton lands are represented as being in good condition and ready for the seed. At the pod opened at Co.umbus, Thurs day to determine who should be the Demo cratic candidate for Mayor, Col. A. R. Lamar rec ived two hundred aud seven teen votes and Mr. John Mcllhenny four hundred and sixty-eight. The total Dum ber of votes polled was 635.216 less than ! the registered white vote of tha city. The guano contagion has reached I'homas -1 ville and planters are reported to be invest ing every spare dollar in fertilizers for the purpose ot producing a large cotton crop. Better plant corn and—raise provisions. The Rome Courier of the 3d inst., says that the wheat crop throug out that section of country perhaps never looked better at this season of the year than it does uow. An unusually large breadth of land was sown last Fall, and the seed was, as a general thing, well put in. It has not been "Winter killed;” the stand is ex cellent, and the crop appeals healthy and vigorous. Tne greater part of the corn crop has been planted during the present week, that most of the large amount of fertili zers purchased, and the be.-t lands, are re served tor the cotton crop. Asa general thing, fruit ;n this section has not been materially injured. The peach trees are now iu full bloom. The Barnesville Gazette says wheat and eats are looking very fine in Upon, Pike, and Monroeooanries, and, notwithstanding the unusual number of rainy days, a fair proportion of the eoru crop is planted. i Mack, a correspondent of the Express, i pronounce a field of eighty acres of wheat i belonging to Blasingame brothers, the 1 finest io the State, and Dot to be surpassed in Tennessee, Virginia or Kentucky.

BY TELEGRAPH. Andrew Johnson in The Field. SPEECH AT KNOXVILLE. THE COUNTRY IN DANGER. Radicalism ihe Cause of a'l our Wo eu ] Knoxville, April 3, p. m.—The city it .crowded with the old friends *>f Andrew Jo* nsou. At au early hour this morning ! the people assembled in little knots on the | streets, talking at>out Andy's old tri ! uniphs. Special trains on Railroads brought crowds to the city. At 11 a. m., a special train arrived Irma Greenville with ; Andrew Johnson. He was greeted at Ihe 1 train by r a delegation of citizens with a baud, and escorted to the Lamar House in a barouche in company with Colonel ! Nelson and John M Fleming of the i Press and Herald. After a short delay Mr. Johnson was introduced to the a»- 1 sembled crowd,numbering about 5,000, by Hon. Mr. Nelson, who referred to his pre vious political differences with the dis tinguished geDtleman before them and to their argument upon the vital question of Union. He related the persecutions inflict ed upon Johnson for his Union sentiments. He eloquently described his patriotic course during the war. Alluded to bis wise andconciliatory policy of Reconstruc- tion. Mr. Johnson, af er returning thanks for tho cordiality of his welcome, sai l he had endeavored to protect the Constitution. All he asked was a fair examination of his record. He intended to devote the re mainder ol his life as a private citizon to the vindication of bis official life and his native State from the foul obloquy thal had been heaped upon him and her. Though bent be bad not been broken by the storm which bad nearly wrecked the ship of State. He bad seen iti the papers nis own obituary ard supposed he. might be as one rison from the dead, and he thought belief should be placed in one come from the grave. He was not so dead yet. The'Constitutiou divides the Govern ment into three departments. YVhen the Congress of the United States, excited by interest and in a spirit of tyranny, tran scribed the Constitution he vetoed their bills and sent them back. Let us see how these departments operate. Each is con fined to its sphere. Let us reason together. YY’here is the danger iu the Government? I tell you to-day, as speaking from the dead, it is in the Legislative department. I mean iu the Federal Government. Why? Cau the Executive make law? He has only a negative power. The Judiciary can only expound the law, but the Legislature can pass laws of the most arbitrary char acter and under pretence of law, trample upon the liberties of the people. Those who are trying to undermine the Consti tution have grown in power, that two thirds majority has the power in the Con stitution." Then they cau go on until Congress; yes, a capricious Congress; yes, a despotic Congress; yes, a usurping Con gress, will take away the liberties of the people. But I feel tiiat I stood as a break water at the head of the American Govern ment and arrested this progress for atimeat least, until the people know what is going ou; and while others may boast of having established the Government, I teel that I can, without egotism, claim the credit of having been efficient in its preservation. The time has come to talk about the prin ciples of government. Take away the re straints which hold back Uougress, and vou have a despotic government who, without the other two departments of the government, and you have a Congress with its discretion or, perhaps, I should say, its indiscretion. The measure of its Dower Jefferson describes such a body as Ibis the exact embodiment of despotism ; and let me tell you here that a wise and good Feince is "infinitely better than a usurping, arbitrary, despotic Congress. (Voice, “That’s so Andy ; go it.”) Look at the course of Great Britain toward the colonies and compare it with that of Con gress. Look at tho Declaration of Inde pendence and see how the acts of Congress are similar to the course of Great Britain then. When that declaration was made and the people saw their wrong they were aroused to gain their freedom. Now look at our condition. The great writ of habeas eorpus suspended, and when a citizen of the United Slates appealed to the Supremo Court, one arbitrary Congress took from him the right to appeal and deprived him of his liberty. He alluded to the charge of treason to party, and asked when had he been false to the platform upon which he was nomi nated? He then took up the sneering ac cusation about his being Moses, and ask. and if it was not hsthat freed tlie negroes in Tennessee? Freedom was only liberty to work, it was not to build up a lazaroni to be supported by the Government: Let me tell you, colored wen, add I have never denied to white men or black men that these men who talk about your old piasters have only delivered you up to new masters—vou are slaves to tlie League. Let roe say to'you, as I said to my old servant as I told him when I came back ; Sam, the only difference between us is that I freed you four years ago, and I was ODly emancipated on the 4th of March, so you see lam addressing you as a freed man. (Laughter.) As evidence of his loyalty, he said a paper signed by YVm. G. Brownlow ac knowledging the receipt of $1,51)0 to estab lish a Union press at Knoxville, and defray Bruwulow's expenses iu escaping from'secession oppressson. The time is full oi alarming portends. The country is in danger and let me lilt my warning voice. Look at the taxes of the State and of the Federal Government. The Federal Government collects one hun dred and fifty millions—three times as much as was necessary a few year.-- ago for the whole expenses of the Government—to pay the bondholders. You black men might as well know this, that while they have been enfranchising you and disfran chising white men they have been making you slaves; yes, you a-e all slaves to gether to bondholders who never shed a drop of blood. I would to God that the Government had not the credit to borrow a dollar to carry on tbe war. If people bad had beforehand io pay the cost of the war we should never have had one. Thank God my march has not been through Gol gotha, my boners have not been gained by blood. The widows and the one-armed soldiers cannot attribute their wrougs to Die. I stand here vindicating the Consti tution as it was handed down lo me, and here, at tne last hours of my life, J call upon you to cling to tlie Constitution of your country as the marinei clings to his compass. He spoke about two Uours.and was listen ed to with tbe closest attention, and on re tiring from the stand was heartily ap plauded. He was at once surrounded by his old friends, and several hours passed in interchanging reminiscenses,. In con versation he spoke without reserve of Grant, whom'he characterized as a bundle of prejudices and his gift enterprise Cabi net as lie called it. The people are hearti ly glad to see Mr. Johnson again among them. Hese ms to think he will succeed in overthrowing the despotism in Ten nessee. From Cuba. Havana.

To-day there is not a nook or corner of oar land where they are not found and used. The sale has reached the enormous number of Five Million of Battles annually, and it is con stantly increasing. It only bhows what can be done with a really good medicine, and a systematic course of making >t known. Perhaps no medicine in the world was ever so deservedly popular as the Plantation Bitters. Go where you will, among the rich or poor, and you will always find these Bitters in use. Their merit has become an established fact, and we cordially recom mend them in cases of dyspepsia, loss of appetite, chills and fever, headaeho, &c., &c.
