Chronicle & jmtiacl. AUIiCHTA, GA ! WEISNE-SIUi MOBMStI. FKBRIABT 2. Judge Andrews’ Atlanta Speech. Some days sines we advised the read ers of the Chronicle & Sentinel that Bullock had determined to re ve nertain bupreme an 1 Superior Court JuG • s who had refused toco-operate with and support him in his la‘e efforts to destroy our State government and who still declined to par ticipate in his attempts to rob and plunder the people of the State. Among the number thus stated to be particularly obnoxious to the bloated rob ber, we mentioned the name of Jadge Garnett Andrews, of Wilkes. This dis closure of Bullock's purpose seems to have had a very decided «ffect upon Judge Andrews. The Buliis-k organ at Atlanta publishes an account of a speech made by the Judge a few night" since at a Radical meeting there, in which he is reported to have said that “he fully and heartily en dorsed the administration of Gen. Alfred “11. Terry and Governor Bullock, and he "lined that under (heir wine and judicious "< ounneit the. Umpire State of the. South, "hie own Moved G< oryia,would he restored "to full fellowship with her sister Suites, “and peace aDd prosperity prevail through out the glorious old commonwealth.’ We confess that we can hardly believe that Judge Andrews could have u-ed the language above attributed to him. The j Judge knows liu'lock’a character too well —he has b-en so filly informed in relation to his improper partizin and corrupt ad ministration o the State government, as to render it altogether, unlike y that he could have endorsed.so broadly all of Bul lock’s conduct. '•> We do not, we hope, underestimate the influence which otil ;c in these days exerts upon the conduct of those who love official position. We arc cognizant of the tenacity with which some men cling to office, and know how hard it is tor them to give up a fat place. J udgo Andrews is too intimate ly and honorably connec'ed with the past history of the State, has been too often honored with the suffrage of honest white nun, to permit the mere lust for pay and po.-ilioo to cause him to turn his back upon his past record and des )rt the true people among whom he has been raised, I here must be a mistake in this report o. his late speech. The Confederate Graves.— During a recent visit to ti e Cemetery we wore im pressed wit It the beauty of two very fine immortelle wreaths in front of the Con feierate soldiers’ graves. The e wreaths were imported direct from Paris by Mr. 0. Pemble, of the Augusta Seed Store, who very generously presented them to the Ladies’ Memorial Society, for the pur po*e to which they have been appropria ted. Mr. Pemble also presented the Society, some time since, with a fine selec tion of' flower soeds of different varieties. The seed were planted over and around the graves, and, under the influence of the present, mild weather, will soon begin to bloom, when they will present a handsome appearance, and add much to the at tractiveness of that portion of the Cem etery. Great Bargains in Dry Goons.—'TV j attention of our oountry readers is directed I to the advertisement of Mr. Christopher ; Gray, which will be found in another column. During the present and coming 5 week he will offer great b irgains in order; to dispose of his Winter Stock to make room lor the Spring supplies. Mr. Gray is an old dry goods merchant, and from his long experience in the business, is well qualified to make selections for our market During the aproaobjng Spring season he j will offer many novelties at the lowest j prices. Our oountry friends are invited to j call and see for themselves. Small Fruit Recorder.—The Janua ry number of this most valuable Monthly Paper is upon our table. It is brimful of practical instruction on growing fruit and the beautifying of the home. It should bo taken by every person who has aoy taste or love for fruit or flowers. Price only .00 cents per year. The January number (which alone has that worth ol instruction), will be forwarded to all ap- ] plicants live, although a stamp would not be refil l' l to pay’ return postage. Ad dress, A. M. l’urdy, Palmyra, N. Y. N. B,—Postmasters will find this a good paper to obtain subsoribers for, while the premiums offered are very liberal. Going up in a Galloon.— Professor King, the .'Kronaut, having perfected his arrangements, will make an ascension from this city on Monday woek. The place of starting will be from the vacant lot on El lis street, next to the Postoffioe. Mr. King is a successful teronaut, having mado uo less than one hundred and forty aseen sions. The affair will tie exciting and in teresting, and will, no doubt, bring to gether a large number af visitors from the city and surrounding country. Queer Doinus.--A rather singular affair occurred in Louisville, Chattooga county, some days ago. A party of Federal sol diers arrested a man named Abridge for disorderly and threatening conduct against one of his neighbors, and lodged him in ail. That night a largo party of disguised men went to tho house of Judge Kirby (who came from Atlanta with the troops and was suspected of bringing them) and demanded, as a condition of his own safe ty, that he should go to the jail and release the prisoner from the custody of the mili tary. This the Judge did, the Lieutenant in charge granting his request alter walk ing up and down the long line of disguised men, who were drawn up in front of the jail. Tiie story is a little lame, but the affair is creating no little excitement in the up oountry.

Ac , Ac—The brain being the most delicate and sensitive of alt our or- | guns, is necessarily more or less aifected bv all our bodily ailments. A headache j is often the first symptom of a seriousdis ' case. If the nervous system is atlecteii there is always trouble at its source iu the pericranium. And it mav be here re marked that as the nervous fibre pervades the entire frame, no part of the physical structure can be affected without the i uerves suffering sympathetically. Liver complaint oi every type affects the brain. I Sometimes the effect is stupor, confusion 1 of ideas. Hypochondriasis, sometimes per sistent or {veriodicat headache. In any case, the best remedy that can he taken is Plantation lUtikrs. In headache pro ceeding front i uhkjestion or biliousness, i or both, tt;e stomach and anti-bilious ] properties of the preparation will soon i relieve the torture, by removing its cause, j If the complaint is purely nervous—in \ other words, if it has originated in the nervous system —and is not the result of ! sympathy, the Bitters will be equally j eilic icious. .

THE lOITWJi TKIUK-FITIKK bII’PLY ASD TBICES. There was a period in the cotton trade before the days of telegraphing to the United States and India came into p' y, when cotton circular writing was popul w. and when those conservant Vrith the trad.- were tolerably accurate in their prognos tications as to the future course of the eot j ten market Since the American war, however, the I cotton trade in Liverpool, aDd in fact, \ throughout the world, has changed. Sow our (merchant* are not content with send ing out to their own firms and corre spondents abroad to purchase aDd ship to this market, t or me:chants afcroad to slop here on their account, but ,a huge system : of gambling has arisen. Contracts are now daily entered into, such as bear ano bull transitions, which tori thetr reck lessness would almost make our grand fathers' hair stand on end; for at present such is the haste with which men uesireto become rich, that they are wilting to buy | or sell thousands of bales of cotton not yet groWD, picked, or received at the cotton ports of the world, some of which canpot ' in ordinary time he received here before August or September next, when another American cotton crop will have been planted and matured, by the extent of which prices may bedepreciated or increased 1 three pence per lb. This is said in common fairness to the j general run of circular writers, as, with 1 influences at work by bears and bulls and the daily receipt of telegraphic rumors 1 from all parts of the world as to the sup- I plies of cotton and the demands for cloth, it is almost an impossibility to prophesy with any degree -T correctness even with regard to the immed'ate future of the mar ket. Nevertheless, there are still some who, despite all the difficulties of dealing first, with the probable extent of the in coming American crop and the amount which would be consumed there; secondly, the extent of the Indian, Egyptian, and Brazilian crops, and the amount which will be received thence io Europe; thirdly, what cotton will Europe consume during the coming year—are still determined to prognosticate, and who by carefully pre pared circulars endeavor to lead and guide public opinUm. We have at the present moment two circulars most elaborately got up, and is ; sued by a firm who for several years were considered an authority; but eveu this firm, able arid taieDted as their writer is admitted to he, was found sadly wrong in his attempts to guage the future of cotton, both as to supply, consumption, and price, for 1869, and will, we thirk, be also wrong for 1870. Just let us for a moment glance at their circular issued December 31, 1868. In it they state— <*: "What are trie prospects of supply for the coming year? We turn first to America, and find, as usual, considerable diver.vty of opinion—estimates ranging from 2 600,000 to 2,760,000 bales. We think the crop will be nearer the first than the second of these figures, anu lean to ward 2 600,000 hales, including all the overland corrections. * * * * * Egypt and Turkey have made good crops, and some increase on last year is expected perhaps 50,000 bales. Brazil seems rapidly to increase its production, and a further large addition is expected this year—it seems not unreasonable to assume an extra 200,000 biles. This general sur vey would indicate roughly an additional supply of 250,000 small tales to Europe, exclusive otany extra quantity of the next Atneri tan crop. This, it must be allowed, is but a poor increase, and will only allow a small development in the consumption— say abiut 57,000 bales per week for Great Britain, aud a oomparativt addition on the continent, and that increase only in small bales. It appears,therefore, that spinners have another anxious perplexing year be fore them, and have no room to anticipate low prices for the raw material. At the same time the prospect before them is not one of famine, only of scarcity, and there are various countervailing considerations w hich have now to be stated. “In the early ruouth of this year the stat'Kticn position of the staple will proba bly exhibit the opposite tendency to what it did labt year. During the first quat ter of 1868 the off take from this port reached the enormous amount of 80,000 bales per week, against an import of 66.000 bales per week, and this reduced the stock (after allowing for corrections) from 447,000 bales at tho end of the year to 312,000 on the 2d April; hut this year we do not antici pate that the off take will exceed 36,000 bales per week, while the import will prob ably exceed last year, and may reach 70,- 000 per week, and therefore our sto k will increase, and may stand at 400,000 bales by Ist April. Further, one great cause of the excitement in the spring of last year was tho extremely small ship ments from India appearing on the water, hut we believe that the crop will be ex ported more rapidly from India this year. The price in Bombay is now 250 rs. against 140 rs. last year, and the consequence is that the new crop is uow being hurried down to port. Last year at this time business in India was paralyzed; we there fore expect by tho month of A; ril to see a much larger quantity of India cotton on the water than last year, and altogether a con siderably greater visible supply of cotton, and this cannot fail to have a modorat ng effect upon prices. * * * * * For these various reasons we consider the present price ot cotton quite high enough, and we do not see much ground for antici pating an upward tendency in the spring months. Nor, on the other hand, do we see much room for decline, and a range of lOd. to lid. for American cotton seems to be fairly justified. Os course, if the American crop falls short of the figure we have named, the position is stronger, pro tanto\ and if it exceeds it, vice versa. Sup ply and demand are too nicely balanced to allow of any disturbance without a sharp effect on prioes.” Thus, what they predicted and what actually took place, are as follows: rognosticate ‘. Actual results. American crop 2,500,000... 2,260,000 Imports in 1869 — American 1,269,000... 1,039,720 Brazil 830,900... 514,200 Egypt, &c 251,450... 226,610 Surat, &c 1,452,070... 1,496,410 Probable stock April 1, 1869 400,000... 236,130 Actual prices. (Jan 1, 11 and j Feb. 12,12 id I April 1, 12jd Quotations of American to -J July 1, 12,}d rule from lOdto lid. | Aug. 19,13Jd I Nov. 4, 12 Id Such predictions for 1869 and such re- j suits since, we think fully confirm our opin ion that operations based upon apriori j reasoning such as that indulged in by these j trade circulars are most uncertain and dnneerous. In fast if the present system j of time bargains by bears ar and bulls is to j continue, there can be nothing expected ; but violent and frequent fluctuation* such as those on the Stock Exchange, when in ; most eases the interest only of brokers is | served. If anything would tend to deter merchants and manufacturers from indulg ing in this reckless trading, it is the ex perience of the past year. At the open- , | mg of the American season for 1868 69, I the estimates put forth were of the most J extravagant character, ranging from 2,500,000 to 3,000,000 bales and over. Upon such extravagant notions very heavy : bear sales were made in this market (chiefly ] by Manchester and London operators,) ana ; which resulted not only in most serious losses to them but as the 1 sales were made for | December, January, February and March shipment, it enabled the holders iu America to a great extent to exact their own terms, and hence the quotations weekly in New York to lay cotton down in j Liverpool were throughout the year sotne | times considerably above those current here, with the exception of September 16 , October 14, and Peeember 2, when there was an apparent profit to importers of |d ; per lb. Titus serious loss to importers i who sold on ‘'bear" contracts was the re i suit; and there can be no doubt that the i cost to Great Britain of the past year’s supply from all sources was much en hanced by tho enormous and reckless j “bear" sales made in September, October. November and Ihtcember, 1868. As specimens we give a low quotations, at the same time stating that the lowest quo tation for Middling American in Liverpool | in all 1869 was lid per lb.: Quotation iu Liver pool on the 1868.

Tnis season we find the same folly of en •ering into enormous bear transactions ; based upon extravagant estimates of the crop bas again been the order of the day, and, considering present rates, compara tively as low as last year. This desire to bear the marker originated with, and we have no doubt was much intensified by, the high prices current in August last produced by an impending famine, and which was only averted by the sudden closing of the mills and a reduction of i ear ly 300,000 bales in the taking for consump tion and exports in a very short time. The “bear sales” of A merman cotton the past few months are, we are wall informed, quite equal in extent to those of the same period in 1868, and as regards Indian cot ton some very heavy sales for December and January shipment have been made, which may give much trouble to the sell ers to provide, seeing that the shipments from Bombay are not over 26,000 bales in December, and from the crop being fully six weeks late and the stock of old cotton ;u India 150,000 bales less than last year, they are not likely to be large in January. 'J has the game, we fear, has been again played into the hands of the Americans aDd East Indians, who are ready at all times to make good use. of their oppor tunities, and knowing, as they do, by tele graph, of these enormous sales of cotton uot actually visible at the ports, are en abled to exact their own terms for the ne cessary supply. VVeareledto make these remarks by the appearcnce, in the Manchester papers only, this week, of a circular from the firm we have above alluded to, in which' they again prognosticate the future ofcotton.and from which we extract tho following : “The general conclusion we draw is, that the available increase of cotton supply for the year 1870 will be fully 750,000 bales, and that two-thirds of this—say 500,000 bales—may be fairly expected to come to England. Perhaps it should be stated, by way of reservation, that if a heavy fall ot price occurred early in the year it might somewhat alter its distribution, by detain ing some portion in the producing countries but we believe that even 10 J. for America and Bd. for Surat cotton will prove tempt ing enough to clear out the producing coun tries. There canno. be a doubt that the prices now current yield an extravagant profit to the grow'er. It is not supposed that the present crop in America costs the planter more than 12 or 14 cents sold at the ports, whereas he bas received thus far 24 cents per lb. On the other hand, 7d. per lb., sold in Liverpool, would amply re munerate the grower in India; so that there is large room for decline before the inducement either to grow cotton or to send it forward is seriously abated. The question of price will depend upon the consuming power of this country, and how spinners act in buying the raw materia! “ Ibis leads us to the second branch ot the question, viz; the probable state of trade in Lancashire. We start with the great advantage of having consumed 170,- 000 bales less in 1869 than in 1868, which implies a corresponding diminution in the supply ot cotton goods existing in the world, and we have no doubt that the present activity of Manchester is mainly owing to that cause. The news, from In dia and China is certainly the reverse ol encouraging, but from the “mailer miscel laneous markets, and especially the home trade, there is a good general demand, which acts powerfully in tho aggregate. Wo believe this general demand will be fairly maintained throughout the year if tho price of cotton gradually declines. We look cspec ally to heip from the home trade. That great branch of the market is undoubtedly reviving under the influ ence of better cinployme t for the working classes and very cheap bread ; and there is a vacuum to fill up in it caused by years of short supply. We see ,io reason why the p.ouuctioo from 55,000 bales of cotton per week should not be sold profitably, if the price oj cotton is moderate. The consump tion of 1868 averaged 54,000 bale* per week ; last year it fell to 50,000 bales per week, and we expect it will rise this com ing year to an aver ige of 55,000 bales per week. But we scarcely think so large an increase of production can be profitably disposed of with a higher average price for cottor than lOAd tor Middling Orleans. The average of 1869 waa 12fd per lb. Can we expect a reduction of 2d per lb., or ful ly 15 percent, this coming year? We think we can. Our estimate of supply as sumes an increase available for England alone of 500,000 bales. Om-halfof that would feed the augmented consumpt.on, and the other half go into stock, leaving us with 700,000 bales in the two ports at the end of the year, unless part o: it '“as held by spinners in the shape of increased stocks at their mills. “Taking a nearer view of the future, we think that the natural tendency of the market will he to decline in the spring months, as the visible supr ly will largely increase compared with the previous year. The import of American cotton was very small in the early months of last year; this year it will 6a very large; the stocu ran down in the early months of last year, reaching 236,000 bales on th.e Ist April; this year it will probably increase, and may reach 509,000 bales or more by Ist April; last spring we were supported by strong accounts from India that the crops were deficient, this year will have the damping influence of a heavy Indian crop looming in the future. Against these various in fluences it will be difficult for our market to hold its ground if the trade actcautious ly ; but it may be that the decline will be very gradual in face of the novel spectacle of a healthy state of trade in Manchester, for of late years an improvement of trade has been usually the signal for a start in our market, and it will he some time be fore people reconcile themselves to the un worn ed sight ot cotton declining while the spinner is doing well. “We now estimate the emsumption of the kingdom at 55,000 bales per week, which is about the maximum figure it has a'tained since the commencement of the American war. A continuance of thor oughly good trade for a twelvemonth might perhaps raise this figure to 58,0000 r 60,000 hales per week, for there is a good deal of machinery still standing idle thrt would be gradually brought into play ; but there is every reasou to believe that a much lower scale of prices for cotton would require to prevail before so great an in crease in the production ol goods would be taken off by the markets ol the world. ‘‘We would remark, however, that these views are dependent upon the American crop sustaining our estimate of about 2J millions. Should this be erroneous, and receipts fall to about the level of last year, no doubt spinners would buy largely for a time, and probabiy advance prices some what; but we believe . the prospect of a large crop from India will loom up more and more as the year goes on, and prevent any pcimancnt advance even upon this supposition. The course of receipts in America the next few weeks will no doubt settle the question." Wo have here given a very full extract of M ssrs. Sm’th, Edwards & Co.’s circu , lar, issued on the Ist instant, and what has ! struck us most orcibly is that it gives the ! views of one side of the question only, and not with that candor which has previously characterized them both. They assume first that the incoming American crop will j be 2,75(),000 bales, and the India crop so 1 much larger as to give fully 500,000 bales ! i more cotton to Great Britain in 1870 than j last year—viz: 400.000 more from Ameri ■ ca, and 100,000 from India, and, with such ! , a supply, that the average price of Amcri i can cotton this year ought to be 2d. per j 1 lb. less than last year, or 101 and. per lb., as ! i against 12|J. the average or 1869 To believe in these predictions as rc j 1 gards the future of cotton as above stated, | we shoulu, like them, have to forget and ; I ignore—first, that, even supposing the in- : j coming American and East Indian crops to be large enough to yield 500,000 bales j mors in 1870 to Great Britain than in I j 1569, 100,000 American of' this increase j ! have already been dealt with, and also j there is a present deficiency of fully 150,- 000 bales of old cotton in India as compar ed with this time last year, and which to a great ext?ot accounts for the recent small j shipments thence and the high prices cur rent Besides this, the cotton crap of China is this year an admitted failure, which ; will require larger supplies from India to | ’hat country; and recent telegrams from j Bombay report from several reliable sources that the cotton crop is fully five weeks late, and that the Or.nrawuttee and Hingeohaat crop is seriously damaged Thus, the few items here enumerated, which those who prophecy lower prices have en’irely overlooked, may ere long ; materially alter the aspect cf the cotton ! market. No one would rejoice more than our l selves to see a lower scale of prices legitimately arrived at for cotton, for we ■an see no prospect of a return to a healthy 1 «tate of trade in Ltncashi e until that' ’ takes place. W e sre. however, fully alive ’ to the folly of unduly depressing or raising prices by the issue of extravagant state ments, which may suit interested parties for , the time, be they ‘‘bears'’ or "bulls,'’ but which are oertain to create a reaction, thus 1 by producing and continuing violent fiuo tuations, tend, as they have done in the past, to materially injure those engaged in the trade. At present the quotations from America and India are considerably above those ruling here, and indicate great confidence in the future of cotton: and we, therefore, consider we are acting wise ly in advising spinners and manufacturers not to be led away, as they often have been, to expect much lower prices, and then be caught with large orders accepted for doth for future delivery, and no cotton to cover. It is a game that has often been j played upon them by interested parties. Past experience wil l enable them, we trust, to avoid it in the future. Whenever we shall, year by year, see a gradual extension in the growth of cotton 1 equal to supply the spinning machinery of , the world and leave an increasing surplus at tho end of the year, then we may expect a return to a lower scale of prices; but spasmodic attempts to create plenty by “bear” operations are, and ever wil! be, j dangerous and injurious to all engaged in ■ the cotton trade.

During the week our prices have re mained steady at 25 pc for Middling. Liv erpool closes |d higher than on last Friday, with sales of 104,000 bales, or 19,000 bales more than were reported daily. Spinners have taken from that market this week 73,000 bales. Here the attention of the trade is wholly directed to the course of the receipts, while in England, owing to the improved prospects of the home and foreign trade, large receipts at the ports have not had the usual effect of depressing the market. Receipts. —The receipts this week were swelled by large arrivals at New Orleans, part of which were due there last Friday. Mobile has fallen from 11,347 bales to 6,457 bales this week, and by some this is attributed to bad roads. The exce s at that port is now 50,- 546 bales, aud considering the large amount of Alabama Cotton sent East by rail to the Atlantic ports, tho falling of is natural enough. D tring the fourteen weeks, from 29. h January to 30th April, 1869, inclusive, Mobile received 64,238 bales, or an average of 4,588 bales weekly. We bardly expect to see so great an aver age this year. The stocks in the interior towns, which, on the 7th January, were 45,411 bales over same date last year, were on the 14th January only 36,400 bales over. By telegrams received by us this morning, the stocks are about 23,000 bales more than in 1869. We have seen, this week, a number of the annual Liverpool circulars, giving re views of the past year and the prospects of trade and supply lor 1870. The general opinion seems to have settled on an in creased supply of from 650,000 to 750,000 bales. Under this expected increase, it was thought that prices should rule about to lid. for Orleans. The exports of plain Cottou Goods to India ami Chma show a reduction of 164 million yards for the year ending 16lh Doc., 1869, compared with the same time 1868. The average price of Wheat had been 48s. 5d., against 545. in 1868, and 645. lid. in 1867. Receipts and Exports.— The receipts this week have been 95,399 bales, against 80,783 bales the corresponding week last year, and the foreign exports 50,625 bales, against 33,100 bales in 1869. The totals, so far this year, can be seen in the tables given above. The following table will show the totals at each port: 1869. 1870.

Leroy Hammond, in the eighty seventh year of her age. “So let us live that when the dread summons come” we may, like her, have our lamps trimmed, ready for tho coming of our Lord, and with her may we hope to receive the naluta'ion, “Well done thou good and faithful servant,” Os mature age, her years have not pass ed like an idie dream—doiug good to none, teaching no lesson, 1 jading none to g orify and magnify the God who made her and sustained her-but her more than four score years were filled with acts of charity, of love, of usefulness ; and by her pa tience during the years of feeble health, God saw good to afflict her with, and in her triumphant death has sh .- vorified the Scripture, “Blessed are the dead vvli 1 die in the Lord.” Extensively known in her State, her strong intellect and indomitable will gave her an influence over all with whom she was thrown, while her heaven-born charity, of which too much cannot be said, endeared her to taoseshe influenced. She dispensed a most generous hospi tality, and to her well-filled board aud friendly hearth all—friend, stranger, waj*- farer—received a cheering welcome. We cannot dwell ou the many excellent points of her character (those who have known her know them full well), but we would like to illustrate her as a bright example of “one who loved her fellow man.” She leaves but one child to mourn her loss, Maj. Andrew J. Hammond, of this District, and he, by his life-long devotion to his mother, has proved his full appre ciation of her excellent worth. To him we extend our lull sympathy, and with him we mourn, but not as those without hope. She rests from her labors.
