Farmers of Gordon County.
Your attention is called to the ad
dress of the Committee of the Agricul
tural Society of Gordon county, which
appears on the fourth page of this issue.
1 his is a subject which eminently de
serves more consideration than the people
of our section have thought to give it.
Our agricultural resources arc equal, if
not far superior to any section of the
South, and yet, strange to say, almost
everywhere else the people are alive
with the determination to develope. by
scientific cultivation the productiveness
of their lands, while we, to our own
hurt, in a great measure, persevere in
the antiquated methods o-f the long ago
past. We have not yet adapted our
system of labor to the changed condi
tion of things consequent upon the war.
*Surely poverty now cannot be assigned
as the reason why we may not make
rapid strides toward the consummation
of what certainly is in store for the fu
ture of North Georgia. We have thou
sands upon thousands of acres of the
most fertile lands but poorly cultivated,
or not cultivated at all, and this is
caused by indifference of owners, in not
offering inducements to emigrants to lo
cate. Legions of hardy laboring men
from many of the Southern States, as
well as from our own, are filling up the
W estern States, whose labor could be
secured to us if only an organized effort
were made, and lands, at least what
could be scared without detriment to
the interest of the owner, on the con
trary, to his early great gain, were so
cheapened as to be within the reach of
the limited means of the refugee to a
better region. Satisfied as we may be
with the prolific yield of our soil, it may
be made to produce four-fold by judi
cious management and wise cvltivation.
Densely populated districts are al
ways found in a more thriving condition
than where settlements are very sparse.
In proportion to the development of
the productiveness of your lands, in the
same ratio is their value enhanced.
We want laborers. Experience has !
taught that it is folly to rely upon negro
labor ; and we have cause to congratu
late ourselves that we arc comparatively
rid of the class. Avery effectual
method of increasing the population of
reliable hands has -been tried in nmijv
sections, not without benencial results, in
the formation of immigrant associations.
There is no calculating the advantage to
the agricultural, mechanical and manu
facturing interests of our country, if re
presentative land-owners will take the
matter in hand and resolve upon having
the population increased ten-fold by in
ducing immigration. Look to your in
terests. Let us organize and “pull
together” for the interests of our whole
section.

Shooting Affray.
One of the fiercest conflicts between
two negroes occurred yesterday morning
at Ilogue’s brick-yard, just below this
city, that has taken place here in a long
while, and in which both belligerants.
and a third negro, who had nothing to
do with the fight, were badly shot.
It appears that a negro man named
M unroe Mitchel, was acting as a sort
of drover for one of our butcher pens,
and on Friday eveniuig, when near
Hogue’s brick yard, with one or two of
his dogs, they got to fighting with the
dogs of a negro named Jim Walker.
Out of this dog fight sprang a fisticuff
between the owners of the dogs, in which
Munroe got the worst of it. He went
home and loaded a double barrelled gun
with buckshot and returned to the scene
of the conflict to kill Jim and his dogs,
but finding neither, let the matter drop
for the night. Jim, on hearing that
Munroe was seeking his life, armed him- j
self with a revolver yesterday morning, j
and proceeded to his work at the brick- j
yard. About 9 o’clock, Munroe again
put in an appearance with his gun, and. j
approaching Jim. fired one barrel of the j
gun at him. inflicting a dangerous wound j
in the left knee. Jim sprang behind a
tree or post and drew his pistol, and just
as he did so M unroe fired the second
barrel of his gun, several of the shot
taking effect in the abdomen of a negro j
man named Kd Mims, who was some
steps behind Jim, but in l'ue with the
aim of the gun. It was now Jim’s turn
at shooting, and. though badly wounded
in the leg, he made, at least, two fine
.shots out of the three. The first strik
ing his adversary in the arm. and the
second passing through the back part of
his head nearly as high as the ear. This
shot downed him, and as he fell. Jim
fired one more shot which missed, and
here the conflict ended. Several police
tnen soon appeared on the ground, and
the three wounded uegroes were brought
up on drays to receive surgical aid.
They presented a very bloody and dis
gusting sight.
A warraut was sued out against Mun
roe Mitchel before Justice Logan, but if
we are not greatly mistaken, he will not
appear in Court, as he is badly shot.
The case will be heard as soon as the
I parties are able, if ever, to attend Court.

WATC H E S.
The extensive use of these watches for the
last fifteen years by Railway Conductors, En
ginees, and Expressmen, the most exacting
! of watch-wearers, has thoroughly demon
strated the strength, steadiness, durability
ami accuracy of the Waltham Watch* To
' satisfy that cftvss in all these respects, is to
j td- cide the question as the real value of these
■ time-keepers.
More than 500,000 of these watches ate
i n <> w speaking for themselves in the pockets of
the people— a proof and a guarantee of their
| superioritp over all others.
lue superior organization and great ex
j tent of the Company's works at Waltham, en
i aides them to produce watches at a {"riac
j which renders competition futile, and those
who buy any other watch merely pay from 25
to 50 per cent, more for their watches than is
necessary.
These time-pieces combine every improve
ment that a long experience has proved olre
!al practical use. Having had the refusal ol
j nearly every invention in watch-making orig
inating in this country or in Europe, only
those were finally adopted which severe test
ing by the most skilfull artisans in our works,
and long use on the part of the public, dem
onstrated to be essential to correct and en
during time-keeping;.
Among the many improvements we would
particularize :
The invention and use of a centre-pinion
of peculiar construction, to prevent damage
to the train by the breakage of mainsprings,
is original with the American Watch Compa
ny, who, Laving had the refusal of ull other
contrivances, adopted Fogg's patent pinion
as being the best and faultless.
Hardened and tempered hair-springs, now
universally admitted by watchmaker., to be
the best, are used in all grades of Walthun
watches.
All Waltham watches have dust-proof caps
protecting the movement ITorn dust, and les
sening the necessity of the frequent clearing
necessary in other watches.
Ou now patent stem-winder, or keyless
watch, is already a decided success, and a
great improvement bn any stem-winding
watch in tl e American market, and by far the
cheapest watch of its vitality now offered to
the public. To those living in portions of the
United States where watci.m ikers do not
abound; watches with the above mentioned
improvements which tend to insure accuracy
cleanliness, durability and convenience, must
prove invaluable.
