ItEl'EAL Or THE MEM LAW, ’he question of repeal Is on* that must differently sirset different clashes, and we not hurpnsod to And that there is con siduruhie d.vernity uf opiniou as to tho propriety of the mesHurp. Many, who have uiado up their minds to farm thin year uu the Isle plan ot obtaining advan ces and pledging tho forthcoming crop for them—many, indeed, who at this time feel thomsclves unable to keep up their farming business in any other way — would prefer that the law should stand; while others, looking forward hopefully tu the discontinuance of a system of fanning which is certainly pernicious and cniharrussiug, prefer that the laws should I not directly favor and encourage it. Tho 1 ol UoprosontativtB, ! ,„ ltor clttM to be tho „, joritJi „ indicated by tho expressed viows of the i'atrous i f Husbandry in OonventioQ and tho temper of tbo Legislature. It is a in alter for congratQlatiun that on this subject tho Patrons and tho Legislators are in ucuord, because the reform aimed at is one of simply a practioal character, and which cannot be successfully carriod out without the ready ot>operation of the pluntors. We think there can bo no doubt that the prospective effect of the repeal will be wholesome. If it shall make more difli cult the obtaining of advsucos upon the mortgage of the crop, it mast ncoessarily stimulate planters to a groater effort to raise for theiuselvos, as far an practicable, the supplies which they have been iu the habit ot obuiuiug tnrough the merchants. This, iu tho opiuion of nearly all men niuoug us who have given tho subject thougui and observation, is the groat measure of reform which Southern farm ing economy demands. The Grangi uppaar to be tinnutmuus in declaring their uppreheutfiou of this fact and their donii lo aid in bringing about tho needed change. Once fairly inaugurated—tho plantations and farms once freed from the liens of the pro?isiou dealers—tbero is no good ro ison to doubt that the reform will Ira generally adhered to. From that good time mu.it necessarily dale the oommouae- niunl of Southern recuperation from the devastations end disturbances of tho war Tins freedom has not so far been attain- i d, ovm if it has berm appn u shod,dmiug the eight years which have olapnod since the close of the war. The hen system, sometimes with and sometimes without tho direet encouragement of the law, has boon a great obstacle to it. A fair trial ol a different Hysleui is “in order,” and nr- gently seconded by the condition of tho country aud the demands of tho planters themselves. Let all co operate in giving it a fair trial. GEORGIA LEGISLATURE.' WASHINGTON. The Montgomery Dctniny Lcdyer, re porting tho tact of tlic now piuuling ol tho sigu ot tho negro and mortar in front of one ol tire drug stores iu its city, ic- Oftlls a good joke played off on General Hwayne during his term as military oum- tnuudur there. Tbo General had a citizen arrested upon tho representation that In- had given a negro iu his employment but one suit of clothes since the war; and In- wuh rather set hack by tho Bubscquout in formation that the negro was tins same wooden liguru with the suggestive mor tar. It appears tlmt the Grangers’ Conven tion at Atlanta did nut rooomniund to the Legislature tlio formation of a Direct Trade Company and an appropriation for its purposes, as our dispntch may have led Home lo Hupposo. T he Grangers tlum- aolves subscribed the amount (#100,001 . and urg ini/.ml the company. This wo it- gard ns tho most important and hopeful uotiou the Patrons huvo yot taken. Thut the organization was capable of effecting much good wo were long since convinced, and now wo are us well salisliod that it i moving iu the light direction. The Supreme Court of Alabama dccidud on Thursday, that “ a debt duo lor laud purchased is payable in United Staton legal lender notes, notwithstanding the agreement of tho parties that it was to In paid iu specie, especially when 4he con tract iu subsequent to the enactment of tho law making them a legal tender." This may be law—aud constitutional law —but it soems to bo a very rigorous Ind that prohibits two cilizetis from ngtvi ing between thomaelvoB us to tho kind of cur rency they will payor receive. It also goes to the extent of changing the amount involved iu the transaction. The Montg-nuory Journal understands that tlio deed of trust convoying tho pro perly of the Tullussoo Factory (heretofore mentioned) was signed by tho creditors on Friduy, and that it now ouly rquiaius to secure the concurrence of all the stock holders. Tho Journal thinks there is doubt whether all the stockholders will agree. It says thut the arrangement agreed upon will cut tho new stockhold ers out of all participation iu the bcnullls to be derived from tho Factory for three years, and that new stockholders agree ing to it will huvo denied themselves Uu privilege of successfully assorting any elttiui to be considered creditors of tho old stockhol lers. Tueue are said to be ut this time two huudred thousaud volumes of document: in store at the capitol in Washington city They are such documents ns members ol Congress have been in the habit of frank ing to their constituents, but upon which they must now pay postuge or lot them retnuiu uncirculated. As wo have hereto fore said, Congress must either make some provision for tho distribution of its printed mutter, or stop tho printing. It could save a vory largo item by stopping the printing, but is it iu accordance with the progress of the ago to do so? Mim ULUUUIA NEWS. multitude or Local Bill*- Mr* Etc.. Etc.

TLo St. Petersburg correspondent of tho JLiltic Gazette lias soon odvatiic a loots of the first volume of the Uraud Dolto Alexia' account of hin voyage around the world. This tirnt volume is oxclu- stvely devoted to a description of the Grand Duko’s adventures tu ihe United •States. I ho vbovs-tnenuoued correspon dent writes ns follows nbout it: “This is cerlmly a very enrion* work. To judge flora what 1 bavo read of it — whether Ills Imperial Highness wrote ii himself,jor whother an abler pen did it for I lui—the book is intensely interesting. The Grand Duke says that hi* reception m New York almost stupefied him. Up lo the last, moment he bad not thought that so brilliant an ovation would bo tondered in republican America to the sen of u monarch. “He was very weak when he landed in New York, and during his progrss* up Broadway frequently felt like fainting. But everybody was so kind to bun that lie tried to loot pleased, as he was in his heart of hearts. Broadway ho Rays, in his opinion, is the finest thoroughfare in fee world, because everything there, hou ses, shops aed the people, look not mo notonous, but gay, lively aud bright. What amused him porhaps more than any thing else was that tho bands,upon catch- ing sight of him, strnek up, not the Bus- pian anthem, hut the so-called ‘Dirge of St. Oaiboriuo,’ which i* played in Bitisia only at the funorale of a member of tho imperial family. The choars of tho peo ple were more deafening than any ho Ltd hoard in Europe, from which he playfully concludes that lung diseases cannot be very prevalent iu the New Worl4. As to tho soldiery, tho variety of uniforms struck him as extremely odd. Ho says he saw, peacefully, side by side, ln»lmot- tod Prussians and ‘kopied’ Fr nehmen, redcoatcd Englishmen and Irish troopn hearing tbo banner of tho Green l*lo. “Tho Grand Duke cannot praise too highly American hotels. American faro, bo thinks, however, l* too rich. * i’horo ia nt their tables,’ he exolaims, naively, ‘al ready too much of a good thing. 1 asked for tho peculiar dishes of America, and at the hotel they oould not give me any. Their cooks were Italian and French. Tho land lord shrugged hi* shoulders when 1 a«ked him about tt. Out West, however, my desire wa* a once gratified. I dined one day on baked pork aud beans, a vory pala table dish, which would certainly bear transplanting to ltiiasia.' “American manners, tho Grand Duke thinks, are a little awkward aud angular, but decidedly pleasant on aoeouut of eve rybody's fmnkuesa. lie tolls a number ot curious anecdotes on his experience with tho aborigines. In Washington h* was told that tho lush servant girl* at th* residence of M. Caiaca/y wore dying to see bun. He pnt on a cap and au old traveling coat, and wont unheralded down into tho kitchen among them. He was not recognized by the Biddies, and chat ted with thorn for half an hour. Ho found that not one of them had auides of where liiiana wa* situated, aud one of tho g r.s even asked him if tho Czar always wore a crown on hi* head? adding that she knew the Queen of England always did. “Equally amusing is the account of hia reception at Omaha. Nebraska, where a member of the Legislature congratulated lmu on the successes of hi* fattier in the war with France! Another legislator of that S'ate wanted to know if it was al ways cold iu Uuasia. “These funny episodes in tlio West, however, were amply made up for by the xtronie kindness and consideration w ith 4'onp D'Mut.
