The Convention of Millers, to which reference has been made from time to time in these columns, met yesterday morning at 11 o’clock, at the office of Messrs. Stovall A Hull. The following mills were represented: Augusta—KxcelsiorMills—Capt. T. P. Stovall; Augusta Flour Mills —John M. Clark, A. K. Clark; Granite Mills—W. M. Jackson; Empire Mill—M. I. Branch; Greene Street Mills—Geo. W. Whitehead. (Charleston—Campsen Mills—Ernest Waltjen. Savannah—Forest City Mills—L. Haynes. Macon Georgia Mills—George W. Burr; Eagle Mills—G. W. Bates. Wilkes County Beaver Dam Mills— Wm. Maxwell, Capt. Stovall r»ad the following ad dress to the Convention: Gknti.kmkn—The occasion which brings us together to-day is one of much interest to the manufactures of Georgia. Milling, second in importance to the manufacture of cotton, needs only a fair field and cijual justice to de velop rapidly in growth and to open new channels to trade and industry. Biehmond and Baltimore illustrate what milling lias done to build up a large and lucrative trade with the markets of the world. Shall we in Georgia lie domi nant and allow the ample returns of en terprise, now almost within our grasp, to drop into other hands, to enrich other sections of the country ? The exports to foreign countries from New York the past year shows the fol lowing : To the British Ta1e5—213,512 barrels of flour ; 14,103,77] bushels of wheat. To the Continent of Europe—s,B27 barrels of flour ; 2,259,798 bushels of wheat. To the West 1ndie5—124,459 barrels of flour; 188 bushels of wheat. To South America—22l,o93 barrels of Hour ; 2,444 bushels of wheat. A careful examination of these figures will show that over seventeen times as much wheat is shipped to the British Dies and the Continent of Europe as flour, because freight on wheat is cheaper. The exports of flour prodnets to the West Judies and South America are three times greater than to Great Bri tain and the Continent. This ratio is increased still more by adding the ship ments from Baltimore and Richmond. Before the war Georgia had a fine trade in flour with the West Indies and South America the quality of her pro duct giving promise of securing a rich share of that important branch of com merce. Since the war nothing has been done to re-open this trade. Why is not the effort made 7 I answer, it can be done again, and that every flour mill in Georgia now built, and others to be erected, can be taxed to their utmost ca pacity to supply the demand, if our rail way companies will do justice in the transportation of wheat. A direct trade in flour would also open a return trade in the products of those countries, which would send the cars loaded to the interior and the West. These are not impossibilities. We are living in an age of rapid change, of great activity and stupendous energy. Let us consider nothing impossible which presents such inviting prospects to the miller, and indirectly to the poo plo«of the State. Tho mills aro doing but a limited trade now in supplying the home demand. A reference to the fig ures below will enable you to prove to those interested how our railways are working to build up milling in the West, and crushing our own energies by a rushing head-long policy to bring freights for nothing one way and return their cars empty.

Hour at 81 00 for wheat in St. Louis 87 08 Freight to Augusta 1 50— 9 18 Cost of freight on flour per bbl. less than wheat 45 These figures do not present all tjae facts. Flour is made an article of spe cial freight contract, and wheat is not. A merchant in this city informed mo that hi‘ hud contracted recently at 15c. per barrel, less freight, than the regu lar rab>s, and you all know that a barrel of Hour is often shipped at 190 lbs., and no charge for the weight of the barrel; and again, in some instances, a hundred barrels are placed in the ear at the price of ninety. The railway companies say rolling freight is better than hulk grain. It does not look reasonable, however, when the bulk grain is neither loaded or unloaded at the expense of the railroads. It is a cardinal rule in transportation that the raw material should be carried at lower rates than the manufactured products; besides, in cases of damage or loss, the risk of the road in wheat is less in proportion to its lesser value. This Convention has been called to advance the great Vito rest of milling, j and 1 greet you, gentlemen, with a hear- j tv welcome, and congratulate you that j we are the first to move in a matter of ! so much importance. On motion of Mr. Butr, of Macon, the ; Convention was organised by calling j Col. T. P. Stovall, of Augusta, to the j Chair. Mr. G. \V. Bates, of Macon, was i requested to act as Secretary. Mr. Jno. M. Clark suggest*] that let- ; tors received from different millers in | the State be read. The Chairman then read letters from ( Cook A Clark, Atlanta; .T, ,1 Cohen, j Romo ; George W. Woodruff - , Columbus; Stuart, Austin At Cos., Atlanta, and E. R. 1 Smith, of Rome, tendering their hearty I co-operation in the objects of the Con vention, Mr. Waltjeu, of Charleston, was in- j vited to participate in the deliberations of the Convention. Mr. Jno. M. Clark suggested the ap pointing of a committee to draft a me morial tojthe railroads, askiug them to ; equalize freights on wheat and dour. Mr. Whitehead thought it would be , best first to organize into a Millers’ As- ! sociation, as the memorial would then , have more force. Jlr. Branch concurred with Mr. White- 1 head, and thought millers iu all parts of tins State and South Carolina should be i requested to co-operate. Mr. Whitehead moved tl at a commit tee of three be appointed to perfect a permanent organization, the committee to report at 8, p. m. Mr. Braueli moved as an amendment that the meeting resolve itself imme diately into the Millers’ Association of Georgia and Carolina. Mr. Whitehead accepted the ameud inont. and the motion thus amended was aslopUsl. Mr. Branch moved that a committee of six, with the Chairman, be appointed to memorialize railroads from the West, and particularly the Green Liue, in re gal'd to the discrimination in freights on wheat and tionr, and asking them to equalize the tariff. Mr. Branch’s motion was adopted. Mr. Branch suggested that in the ap poiutmeut of the committee one mem ber be selected from each of the follow- ' ing cities; Savannah, Macon, Atlanta. Charleston and Augusta, with the Presi dent as Chairman. The President appointed as the com mittee Messrs. Branch, Haynes, Walt jen, Burr and Cook. Mr. W. M. Jackson said that his: father, Mr. Geo. T. Jackson, being a' Director in the Georgia Railroad as well as a mill owner, could take no part in the Convention. Mr. Branch said that if all railroad men were as liberal as Maj. Jackson there would be no trouble. It was determined that the committee should make their report iu circular form, and send a copy to each of the miller# of this State and South Carolina. Mr. G. W. Burr moved that a com mittee of five be appointed to draft a Constitution and By-Laws, and that they report at nine o’clock this mom i ing. The motion was carried, and the Chairman appointed Messrs. G. W. Burr, of Macon ; John M. Clark and G. W. Whitehead of Augusta ; Ernest Walt jen, of Charleston, and L. Haynes, of Savannah. By suggestion of Mr. Whitehead, the Chairman was substituted in his place on the committee. On motion, the Association adjourned until this morning at nine o’clock. After the Association adjourned, seve ral bottles of champagne were opened by Capt. Stovall, and success to the new organization drank in foaming bumpers. SECOND DAY’S PROCEKDIFG9. A Constitution Adopted—Officers Elect ed—Premiums Offered The Miller’s Association met at the office of Messrs. Stovall A Hull yester day morning at 10 o’clock, pursuant to adjournment. Mr. George A. Whitehead from the committee appointed Wednesday, re ported a constitution for the govern ment of the Association. On motion of Mr. Clark the report of the Committee was received. On motion of Mr. Burr the Constitu tion was adopted as a whole. On motion of Mr. Burr, the President appointed a committee of three to nomi nate officers for the ensning year.— Messrs. Clark, Burr and Whitehead were placed on the committee, and re tired for consultation. After a few minutes absence the com mittee returned and reported the follow ing ticket: For President—T. P.

Mr. Clark moved that the Association offer a premium of 8100 for the largest quantity of white wheat grown on twenty acres in Georgia, and the same amount for the largest quantity of red wheat grown on twenty acres. Carried. The President said it was important that the Convention should send dele gates to the Convention of the Millers’ Association of the United States, to be held at Chicago on the 14th of next January. Mr. W. M. Jackson moved that a del egation of ten from Georgia be appoint ed. The motion was carried, and the President appointed the following gen tlemen: John M. Clark, G. A. White head, W. M. Jackson, Augusta; L. Haynes, Savannah; G. W. Burr, G. W Bates, Macon; Cook, Marietta; J. J. Cohen, Rome; G. W. Woodruff, Co lumbus; J. M. Veaca, Adairsville. On motion, the President was added to the committee as Chairman. A letter from Hon. Mark A. Cooper, in reference to the progress of milling in Georgia, was read by the President. Mr. Bates moved that the letter be published in tho proceedings of the Convention. Carried. On motion, tlie Association adjourned, to meet in Atlanta on the third Wednes day in September, 1874.

Patronage That Pays. —That noble institution, tho Public Library of Ken tucky, has permanently established its prosperity by the three gift concerts it has already given under its charter. It now boasts of a building that cost 8210,000, with a library of over 50,000 volumes, and a magnificent cabinet. The fourth grand gift concert for its further endowment will take place De cember 3, and at this concert 81.500,000 cash is distributed to tho ticket holders, the highest prize being 8250,000, and scaling down to prizes of 850, which is the smallest sum given. As there is a prize to every fifth ticket it is easy to see that the patronage of this concert is a patronage that pays, there being great chances of great gains, and only small chances of small losses. Hon. Thos. E. Bramlette, late Governor of Ken tucky, is the manager, and tickets and information may be obtained by ad dressing him, at Public Library Build ing, Louisville, Ky.

M. f COTTON REVIEW. The money panic prevailing over the country entirely unsettled the cotton market during the current commercial week, and quotations in the main have been merely nominal. For the last three days the market has been ex ceedingly irregular, and transactions few and (•mall, there being no money to pay for the cotton. The market is virtually blocked, but there are strong hopes that this state of things will cease in a very short time, as planters' obligations mature and the financial stringency is relieved. Quotations have been altogether nominal to-day. and no regular basis can be re ported. Below will be found a resume of the week's business: Satubday, Bept. 20.—Under the influence of tho impending financial troub'es our market continues dull and depressed. The opening to-day was quiet with a limited de mand. holders asking 16} cents for Liver pool Middling, while buyers bid fully }@}c. under. They remained apart in their views dur ing the day! thus in a great measure restrict ing operations. We quote the close dull and unsettled. The inquiry to-day was principally for handsome styles of Middling. Sales of New York Middling were made at 17c., all other grades were nominal and neglected. Sales. 384: receipts, 519; offerings free, especially of good cottons. Monday, 22. —We report a continued dullness in our market. The offerings to-day were good, while the demand was light, with but few buyers in the market. It closed dull and irregular, the quotations of Middling ranging from Bales. 377 : receipts. 510 bales. Tuesday, 2-3.—'The market opened with a fair demand, holders asking 15}c. for Middling. Toward the latter part of tlie day it became firmer, and with an increased demand prices advanced }c.. sales being made at 15}. though at the close it was irregular at that figure. Sales, 660 bales : receipts. 759. Wednesday, 24. —The continued stringency in financial circles has, we may say, completely paralyzed our cotton market. At the opening it exhibited but little animation, and buyers were scarce. It finally became perfectly dormant, and so continued up to the close, at which time it was exceedingly dull, with virtually no de mand in force. We quote it merely nominal, sav 15@154c. for full style Liverpool Middling. Hales, 170 bales; receipts. 668. Thursday, 25.—The pending financial panic has caused a complete suspension of business in cotton circles to-day. >Ve hear of sales amounting toonlv 17 bales, mail© ac very irregu lar prices. We omit quotations, as we find it utterly impossible to obtain anv that would in any respect be correct. Receipts, 952 bales. Friday, 26.—Nothing doing, the market be ing in such a condition as to render it unquot able. Hales of 17 bales were made during the day at irregular rates. Receipts. 714 bales.

PRODUCE REVIEW. During the early part of the week wo noticed some stir among our merchants, evidently the fact that some little trade was going on. To wards tho middle of the week the effects of the money panic was seriously felt, and upon tho suspension of several of our banking houses biithiess became almost totally to a stand still. The extremely lignt trade doing at present is carried on by consumers, whose im mediate wants compel them to purchase. For speculation there is no demand existing at present. Prices in general are nominal and unchanged. PRODUCE. Bacon. —Clear Sides, 12c ; Clear Rib, 11} @ll J; Shoulders, 10}@10}; sugar cured Hams, canvassed, 15}@16; D. S.
