FINE FIELD FOB A NEW ASSOCIATION.
The Young Men’s Christian Association
is emphatically progressive in its nature
and it seizes upon every new Held of labor
which presents itself. This spirit has
spread the association all over the coun
try ami made one of its permanent insti
tutions. The association in this city lias
not been organized six months and now
it numbers one hundred and fifty mem
bers, and is alive and active. Tho mem
bers ha ve aided no little in tho revivals
which have been going on near the city.
Believing that they will be glad of any
opportunity to spread the organization,
wo refer them to a locality whero there is
a fine field open for their laljors. We
speak of Fort Valley. This beautiful little
city contains a very large number of
Christian young men who are anxious to
enjoy the benefits conferred by tho Y. M.
C. A. A revival of deep interest is now in
progress there and a large, number of
young men have been added to the church.
The community is emphatically Christian,
and we are sure that a large number of
members could easily is* obtained if the
association were to bo formed. We had
the pleasure of conversing with a young
man from Fort Valley a few days since
and he expressed a lu>i>o that tho Colum
bus association would establish one iu
that place. Wo mention tho fart, and tho
members of the association may consider
it, and if they doom proper take action on
the subject.
Uiinny Hair- and llairvluir.
From the New Nork (hmmerckU (Chron
icle. of the 21st, wo learn that tho market
for bagging lias been moderately active
during the post week, and sales in New
York and Boston will probably foot up
2,000 rolls, at, 13*4 cents. The demand
from the South is increasing, and the mar
ket closes firm at the above quotation.
India bales are quiet, ami prices are quo
ted at 9 3 - 4 alo cents. Borneo is held at 3\
coats. Bags are quiet, but prices are
steady: 4.40’s are quoted at 12\ai3 Gouts.
Our merchants continue to receive large
quantities of bagging, and tho trade will
soon become very active. Several firms
have very largo stocks of bagging and ti<*B
and expect a heavy demand.
Freedom.
Wednesday afternoon a negro, who had
endured tho hardships of tho chain gang
for ten long months, wont into Schober’s
gun-shop to have his fetters taken off. He
said the heavy clasps around Ins ankles
had never been one© removed since they
were first put on. They had grown ho
rusty that it was difficult to open them.
After much tinkering and tugging they
were, at last, loosed, and the happy dar
key, throwing his shackles over his shoul
der, marched off to the jail to return
them. 110 was the perfect picture of free
dom and happiness, and as he departed
he vowed that he would never do any
thing else for which he could possibly l>o
put on the chain-gang.

Dili NEXT GOVEHNOIt.
Meeting of the Farmers of Harris County.
KPKECH OF GEN'. A. If. C.01.4H ITT.
Ilurrli County and Homo of ll*r IN*®,
pie—Crops, *!•.
Owing to a misundorstandiug, not so
largo a crowd attended this meeting us
was expected, though a very large crowd
of tho most intelligent farmers of Harris
county were present. A number of the
ladies of the county graced tho occasion
with their presence. At 11 o’clock the large
assembly were called to order by the se
lection of Require James Cox as chairman
of the meeting, and Mr. Eugene Granberry
as secretary. Upon motion of Col. W. I.
Hudson, the Chair appointed the following
committee to wait upon Gen. Colquitt, and
ask him to address tho meeting; the
Chair appointing as that committee,
Judge W. I. Hudson, Dr. H. K. Stanford,
T. H. Kimbrough, Esq., Captain Dennis
Miller, Captain Jenkins, Col. J. M. Mobley
and ('apt. C. A. Redd, of Columbus.
The committee soon returned, escorting
Gen. Colquitt to the speaker’s stand. lie
was fitly introduced by Col. Mobley, who
said lie was “first in war, first in peace,
and first lathe hearts of his countrymen.”
• GENKBAL COLQUITT
then advanced to the front of the speak
er's stand and addressed the audience in
a very forcible style, carrying conviction
to tho minds of ids hearers, as to the
truth of all ho said. Wo intended report
ing his speech iu full, but it was oh> good
to risk being butchered by a reporter. We
cannot employ language to describe the
earnest manner of its delivery, the apt il
lustrations and the general grandeur of
tho speech. Type are inefficient agents to
employ in picturing the speech, as it was
spoken, and we will have to content our
selves with simply telling the readers of
tho Times that it was the best agricultu
ral speech to which we ever listened - re
plete with good, hard, plain common
sense, and a world of solid, practical
truths. He spoke at length on the
POVERTY OF THE PEOPLE,
and assigned correct reasons for it. He,
in fact, solved the knotty problem by
pointing to the post, and picturing the
future, and in such unmistakeable lan
guage that, if heeded, the South will yet
regain the noble heritage bequeathed us
1) v a noble ancestry.
THE GRANGE
came In for a siiaro of his speech, and in a
short but (xmduslve argument he showed
the necessity for the Order. He called
upon tho fanners to unite, not to oppose
anybody, but to foster agriculture and
reinstate the social and moral character
peculiar to the South. By interchange of
views and benefit of each other’s success
ful experience, lie thought the key note to
success and independence.
DIRECT TRADE.
Direct trade was warmly advocated by
tho General, and all the earnestness of his
sincere nature was exerted in painting tlie
blessings that will accrue to the South
from direct trade. He urged his hearers
to endorse the movement. If they did not
have tho money to put in the enterprise, to
encourage the good work by their pat ron
age and influence.
His speech had a marked effect upon liis
hearers, and after the speech everybody
congratulated Idm and promised to profit
by ids advice. During the entire delivery
of ids Speech the audience were particu
larly attentive.
AFTER THE SPEECH
the meotting adjourn**! for dinner. A
number of gentlemen gathered around
Gen. Colquitt to shako hands with him.
One old gentleman was so struck with the
illustrations of tho mode of living now in
dulged in by tho farmers, and a descrip
tion of a poor farmer, that be told the fol
lowing anecdote and applied it to General
Colquitt. He said: “Before the war the
Rev. Dr. Pierce was asked to preach to the
negro church in Columbus on the subject
of stealing. The distinguished divine con
sented, and made them an earnest talk on
stealing. He said sometimes a negro did
not start out to steal, but ho would
l*o going along through Wynnton, and hx*
some fine chickens belonging to the white
people, and not having auything to carry
to his wife Jane, he would whistle to the
dog, slip around the house, and take the
first ones he laid his hands on. When an
old negro woman who heard the sermon
got home, she asked her mistress if old
Dr. Pierce was ever excuzin of taking
chickens. Her mistress was indignant,
and asked her reason for asking such a
question. She replied from the way the
Doctor “unrated on stoalin’ he must know
allabout.it." So the old gentleman thought
Gen. Colquitt must have had experience
to have so truthfully and graphically por
trayed tho wants, necessities .and short
comings of the farmer.
DINNER.
In true Harris county hospitable style,
a plentiful feast was prepared and spread
for everybody present. The less thought
ful failed to provide themselves with a
lunch, but the generous hearts thought of
such things, ami hence there was enough
left to feed an hundred people. Wo, as
well os many others, are under especial
obligations to Messrs. Marshall and Thos.
Kimbrough, Misses Kilpatrick and Mob
ley, Mrs. O’Neal, Mrs. Granborry, and
others, for considerate and kind attention.
As an incident of the feast, Gen. Uolquitt
was invited by the Messrs. Kimbrough to
dine with them on home-raised pig, flour,
corn, syrup and fruits. This turned the
laugh on the General, as he had previous
ly stated in his speech that wo did not
raise our own supplies. But we think the
Messrs. Kimbrough aw exceptions to the
rule; nevertheless they deserve all praise
for setting tho example to their neighbors.
after dinner
the chairman called the meeting to order,
and Col. Mobly was called upon to speak.
He spoke very eloquently of the needs of
the farmers and tho remedies to be ap
plied. He agreed with Gen. Colquitt, ami
thought it high time the farmer was be
coming independent. He urged at lengt h
unity of action, and determination to be
free and independent.
JUDGE W. I. HUDSON
was next called upon, and in his ac
customed humorous style, amused
everybody, and put everybody in a
good humor. He wanted the farmers to
profit by Colquitt’s advice, and go to work
that very day to be independent-
He was listened to with much attention,
and his remarks highly enjoyed.
THANKS.
The hearty and sincere thanks of the
meeting were unanimously tendered Gen.
Colquitt for his able and instructive ad
dress. This was a fitting tribute to a
noble gentleman.
OUR NEXT GOVERNOR.
The next Governor of Georgia will be
Alfred H. Colquitt.
the PEOPLE
arc determined to elect him, for lie is the
man for the place. No stain rests upon
his character in any way. He has illus
trated Georgia upon tho field of
carnage, and now the people ask him to
represent Georgia as the Chief Executive
of tho State. He has been employed since
the war in looking after the material pros
perity of tho State. Especially has he
boon interested in the farmers, and every
Interest that concerned them. All hail the
next Governor of Georgia.
PLEASANT MEMORIES.
Now, as we come to tho conclusion of
our account of the inecting, we will be par
doned for mentioning a few of our friends
in brief. The train from Columbus, under
care of Font Grimes, carried to the scene
of enjoyment our friends Capt. C. A. Redd,
Col. Barden, Col. W. E. Barnard, Col.
James, MaJ. Thornton aud Prof. Glenn.
The ladies of Columbus were represent**l
in Mrs. Perry, Mrs. Radcliff and 51 rs. El
lis. All landed at the terminus!
in good spirits and bent on enjoyment.;
At the rendezvous we met the best people
of Harris. Muscogee was represented by |
Capt. Poe and Mr. Perry Wimberly. Har-:
ris county was proud of such men as Dr.
11. K. Stanford, ’Squire Cox, Messrs. Kim
brough, Eugene Granbery, W. I. Hudson,
J 51. Mobley, Mr. Douglass, Hon. Mr. Kil
patrick, J. J. McKenzie anad many others.
THE LADIES
of Harris were out iu a goodly number.
The charming Misses Mobley, Miss Kil
patrick, and sliss Rogers from Macon,
added much to our enjoyment and pleas
ure. Many of tho first matrons of the
county added to the occasion their un
tiring effort to make everybody happy.
HARRIS COUNTY.
We love Harris county, because the* peo
ple arc so clever aud bo hospitable. They
like to entertain strangers, aud to enter
tain them right royally. They like to lay
aside dull care, and make merry of the
moment Wo are in for Harris county
hereafter, and while some may think we
are enthused for the moment, we Htill say
Harris forever.
CROPS.
The good people of Harris have boon
sorely afflicted in the way of bad crops.
First came cyclones that swept away life
and property, and then a drouth that well
nigh ruined the prospects of all. They
will make only average crops, though in
some parts half a crop is all that can be
expected. They are working hard and
economizing, and we trust they will come :
out ui! right. Many things we would like i
to mention if wo Igui time and space.
Gen. Colquitt-
Gen. A. H*Colquitt will six*ak to-day at
Elam Church, old MuscogeeCamp-ground,,
about twelve miles out on tho Talbotton !
road. He did not come back to the city j
from Kingsboro yesterday, but went j
across the country to the neighborhood of
Elam Church. Quito a number of Colum
bus gentlemen will go out to tho meeting.
A large attendance from the surrounding
country is expected.

HEARTY. BLOOMING WIDOW.
Marietta, Ga., slarch 9, 1870.
: Messrs. Bradfield Cos.:
Gentlemen—You w ill please ship us an
j other supply of your invaluable Female
Regulator, and forward bill by mail. We
are happy to state that this remedy gives
‘ better satisfaction than any article we
sell. We have been selling it since 1868,
! and witnessed many remarkable cures by
it. Among others, there was a lady
friend of ours who was sallow and sickly ,
until she was twenty-six years old, when
she was married. Her husband lived two
rears and died. She continued In bad
health; in fact, she has never been what
a woman ought to be. A few mouths
after the death of her husband she saw
| your advertisement, and came to our
store and bought a bottle of your Regula
tor from us, and took it according to di
rections. it has cured her sound and
well, brought her regular monthly i>eri
ods on, and to-day she is a hearty, bloom
ing widow--with the use of bat two but- i
ties of your Regulator, costing her only
three dollars, when she had tried several
physicians and spent a great deal of
money without any benefit. Wishing you
great success with your valuable reme
uies, we are, respectfully yours, etc.,
