We are still enjoying most de lightful weather, and our farmers are taking advantage of it to get their wheat in. Crops.—The corn crop has come fully up to the expectations of most planters, and the quantity harvested is immense. The sweet potato crop is generally very good, hut we think sufficient care was not generally taken in selecting the seed for planting. The chestnut crop is ‘ bully.” Ahead of the Fair. —Our whole souled friend, John Marshall, has .sent us a lot of the very nicest np.plqs we have seen this year. They were far ahead of anything in that line which we tried at the State Fair, and wc cheer fully consent to John’s taking the pre mium. Call on him and try them be fore they are all gone. \ | Gkn.

Literary Society. —A meetiifg was held at the Court House on Tuesday night, for the purpose of organizing a Literary Society. Capt.

Mr. John M Kiker was elected Secretary. Iho Society determined to meet on every Friday night. l)r. Thornton and Capt. E. J. Kiker were appointed speakers for the next meeting. Avery interesting question was fixed for discussion, and we may ex pect some stiring speeches on Friday night. Let there be a big turn out. Tho Reason Why TICKETS SELL SO RAPIDLY IN H.K.

It would take three cjuireb of foolscap paper to express my intense disgust for cotton, and every body that plants it, to the exclusion of something to eat. I started out this year with brilliant hopes. Indeed I was so enthused with c.itton that I for got everything. I gave up my practice ot law > and turned my head to calcula ting how much I should make. I had bought provisions on time—had bought tons of guano, and decided that I should certainly make 2.250 pounds of lint cot ton to the acre, and that I should seH it at twenty cents, and have enough to pay all my drafts, and have money to invest. Began to worry about the safety of pro posed investments. Thought Central Railroad stock would he unsafe because of the Brunswick road, and the Macon and Augusta Road, and feared that the new' road to Atlanta might damage it. Had no idea that I. could ewer gin my cotton iu the old gin-house, with the old horse power, and, therefore, sent up to Findlay and got one of Bottom ’>• Horse Powers. Found my old gin-house too low—got carpenters and workmen, and prized and prized and worried the poor old house, until we got Bottoms on r to» Thon T bought anew gin; for I expected, with the iourienFe yiehl,fhat> it would require a gin with all the improve ments, and [ bought anew cotton press to facilitate packing. Oh ! how I glo ried in the prospect as I saw the cotton grow. I lauded the guano, and wonder ed how one ever did without it. Alas 1 how changed is my condition ! How blighted my hopes ! Instead of 2.- 350 pounds at 20 I shall make probably 600 to the acre at 10 cents per pound. And then how can 1 see the factor in Savannah. I had rather “face a frown ing world than to see him.” lam in despair almost. Went home a day or two ago, went up stairs and found the room full of empty guano sacks. I said, in desperation, I know what I’ll do; I’ll dig a grave and I’ll bury the sacks out of my sight, and, standing on the grave, my cry shall be vengeance on cotton and guano. Jones Smith. Great stir in town about E F. B » — Disturbance in Clinton. —Several gentlemen from Jones county, in this city yesterday, give us the particulars of a public disturbance and riot between four white men and about one hundred negroes,* that occurred about dark in Clinton on Friday evening. It appears that the white men had been drinking and one of them becoming angry and exasperated at a negro, went home and got his double barrel gun. and return ing *o where a crowd of negroes were gathered fired into them, wounding one severely and another slightly. Os course, this greatly aroused the indigna tion and hostility of the negroes and they began to arm themselves rapidly and but for the hasty flight of the man who fired the first shot they would have mobbed him on the spot. He was de fended by three of his companions who had been with him daring the evening and they, too, got themselves into the muss. After arming, the negroes com menced searching for the man who first fired on them, and failing to find him, they burned one of his houses a half mile out from Clinton, used as a sort of a barn or cotton house* believing that he was concealed therein. The white citizens of Clinton took no part in the disturbance, and frowned down and dc luuneed the lawless action of the parties who brought on the fuss During the night the negroes fired more than a hundred shots, and were ransacking the county in the neighbor hood of Clinton in search of the princi pal originator of the trouble”, and they were still marching about in armed squads yesterday morning. It is not believed, however, that anything further of a serious nature will grow' out of the matter. — Maeou T b graph. The Ron tons all want E. F. B. The English Press on General Lee.—A London dispatch of the 15th. instant says: “Tlie English journals are teeming with eulogistic obituary notices of General Lee. In the Times this morning Colonel From on te , of the Guards, goes so far as to say the only blot on the reputation of the great com mander was the escape from annihilation of the northern army after the battle of Fredericksburg, which is to be attribut ed to the fact that his sense of humanity overpowered the stern duties of the general. What means E. F. B ? Is it really the ease that Mr. Aker wan, of Georgia, is to be expelled from the Attorney Generalship, as having eaten his allotted dirt in postponing the Congressional election in that Shite until the 20th of December next, when Congress will be in session, and be able, without the fear of the fall elections be fore it, to forbid that election until 1872." And is Senator Williams, the father of the Reconstruction Acts, whom Oregon has just spewed out, to have his place ? World. In 1868, Holden carried North Car olina for Governor by 18,641 majority, and Grant for President by 12,264.

This is the way they treat the poor in nocent “culled pussons ” in Kansas: We extract from the Atchison Kansas Patriot: A negro named West Hawkins at tempted a few days ago a horrible crime upon the person of an aged white wo man living a few mile, north of Mar shall, in Saline county, Mo. He was arrested, tried, and committed to jail. “Toward evening,” says the Saline County Republican, “ men w r ith guns and pistols in their hands began to erow'd around the jail doors and demand the keys. Sheriff Wall and his deputies were sent for, but refused to deliver the keys. The sheriff tried to disperse the mob but in vain. They again demanded the keys, and the sheriff refused. The mob then began to break open the doors with sledge hammers, and the sheriff, driven to the necessity of choos ing between two evils, gave up the keys in order to save the other prison ers. The mob entered, seized the negro; a rope around him and led him down in to the woods just back of Allen’s grove. The first impulsr of the mob, composed now of about fifty persons, was to hang him immediately, others proposed a short trial. They then started back to town with him, but before they got half way back they divided, and about twenty-five of the most unruly returned with the negro to the grove. Here a rope was procured and the negro hung to a tree just back of wilson’s stable.— He hung there all night, and the next morning about nine o’clock his body was taken down by the coroner and buried.” E.F.

At the last session of Congress,, a new National loan was authorized by act ot July 14. 1870, and the Secretary of the Treasury, in anticipation of early proposals lor subscription to the new loan, has issued a circular stating the terms on which' the b aids will be issued. He pr p ses to issue : First—s2oo,ooo,ooo of the 5 per cent, bonds, payable at the pleasure of the Government, ten years after date. Second—sßoo,ooo,ooo of the 4f per cent bonds, payable at the option of the Government, fifteen years after date: and Third—Sl,ooo.ooo,ooo of the 5 per cent, b >nds, payable at the pleasure of the Government, thirty years after date. Coosa River Survey. —The Coosa river survey by the General Govern ment. under the charge of Col. 11. C. Pillebrown, is progressing in a very satisfactory manner. We get the fol lowing particulars from our young friend. Hines M. Smith, assistant en gineer : The survey was commenced at Wetiunpka, on the 13th of September. In the first fifteen miles up the river they find 78 feet fall. They are now surveying the Stair Case Shoals. It is thought that probably a canal around the shoals in that section of the river thus far surveyed, will be the most fea sible method of passing them. The weather has been fine and the low state of the river has afforded a fine opportunity for a thorough survey.— Nearly all of tlu? worst shoals have been surveyed -and we are eheere with the hope that good navigation to the Gulf can be secured at a reasonable cost.

Try English Female Bitters. ■W • »- ' yk- > How THE Radical Tariff Robs the Farmer. —The Democrat, publish ed in Orleans county, New York, calls the attention of the people of that sec tion to a simple fact which very forcibly illustrates the beauty of protection. It says the best kind of an iron beam plow can be bought just across the Niagara river iu Canada, for 87, while the &une article costs in Orleans county 814. 1 he purchaser of a seven-dollar plow in St. Catherines, iu Cana la, has to pay, when he brings it across the river, a duty ol 87 upon it. Thus the farmers of the county pay just twice as much for their agricultural implements as they would have to pay just across the river. "i * i*- The Radicals have carried Ohio by some twelve or fifteen thousand on the State ticket. The Congressional dele gation will stand the same as last year, the Radicals having lost two members nnd gained two. Among the Radical Congressmen defeated, is General Sehenek. who was beaten by Jmwis D. Campbell. The negro vote in that State was heavy enough to cover the whole Radical majority.

October 21.—The World has the following special from London: Twenty thousand people marched to the Palace yard and organized a meeting in sympathy with Republican France. The speakers denounced King William. Al lusions to Bright’s apathy were received with cries of “shame !” The Gladstone was bitterly reproached for abstention*. The resolute »ns demand the abolition of pensions to German Princes, and declare that the sooner the kings and queens are abolished, the bettor. The Herald has the/following special from London : There is a rumor that peace negotiations are progressing with Bazaine. an 1 the plan involves the en thronement of the Prince Imperial w ith Bazaine as Regent. Bazaine’s army, with the Sedan prisoners, are to march on Paris to enforce the stipulations. Gen. Seridan has written a letter to a friend in Washington, in which he says there is the same percentage of deserters and shirking from military duty in the German and French armies as there was in the United States armv during the late civil war, and speaks of the fall of Paris as merely a question of time.
