A laboring man, who was advised to go to Texas if he wished to improve his prospect- —as Texas was a sort of mod ern Canaan —took the advice,with what unfeclicitous results one may infer from the follow’ng extract of a letter he writes to the Chicago Inter-Ocean i “I left Michigan with just means enough to come down here. I expect ed to find men who wanted to hire at twenty dollars per month, or more, but could not find anything at all to do. In search of work I traveled over a great pjirt of Dallas, Tarrant. Kaufman and Effis, and only found one man who wouldigive employment, and even he said he didi not really need any men. bht wouhi hire me for a few days, be cause every men ought to have some thing to do. After working for him eight days for fifty cents a day, I again beg n the unavailing hunt for “plenty of work oat fair prices,” but have not found it yet, and am about ready to de clare that it is an ignis fatuus. I meet plenty men who cannot find anything to do, and many offer to work for their board. Gbod ‘hands can easily be found at ten dollars per month, paper money I have conversed with a large number of farmers, and'all say that every kind of work is filled to overflowing. A large land-holder in Dallas told me that plen ty of young men had offered to work for their board, and at that very time he was support : ng men whom he could not sat to work ” STATE MEWS. Edwin Booth will visit Atlanta soon. Miss Louise W. King, of Augusta, has been presented with a diploma by tho Royal Association of Great Brititn. It is said that the Southern Christian Advocate, published at Macon, has a circulation of over thirty thousand copies. Savannah News, 23d : We learn that twelve thousand watermelons will be shipped from Hollywood Station, on the Central Railroad, about twelve miles from Augusta, on Thursday, for the North, via. the Central Railroad and steamer from Savannah The melons will fill an entire train of fifteen box cars, eight hundred to a car. “Old Rock,” the soubriquet by which the late Gen. Henry L. Benning, of Georgia, was known throughout Lee’s army, is said to have been gained in this way : General Benning was mov ing his brigade rapidly into action to support Anderson at the second battle of Manassas. A wounded soldier on the ground Cried out,“Hurry up, Rock, Tige has treed.” “Rock” and “Tige” were henceforward the *rmy names of Gens. Benning and Anderson. Baker county furnishes the first bale of Georgia cotton. Morgan and Jasper counties have been visited by heavy storms recently, wheat did considerable damage. Cotton is opening in lower Georgia. The Americas Republican estimates that that city will receive thirty thou sand bales of cotton the present season Dalton will vote on the local option law shortly. Upson county brags on fine crops. Marietta is full of summer visitors. Open air religious services have been inaugurated in Savannah. They Must Close Up or Come Eolith. *. In less than twenty years the cotton factories of the North wi'l be forced to either close up or remove to the South. This will be tho inevitable result. The Charleston News and Courier utters a solemn truth when it says that even in these depressing times “the Southern cotton mills continue steadily at work, although they have declared reduced dividends,” and avers that “beyond the depression of business,” of which mention has been made, the Northern mills are affected more seriously than ever by Southern competition. 1 hey are being driven out of the market by South ern spinners of heavy goods, and the time is fast approaching when they will close up or come iSouth.” And t his is not onlj/ true of the heavy goods, but even in the finer fabrics of wool and cotton, in other portions of the South than those mentioned by the Charleston News and Courier. Virginia, Georgia, Tennessee and Alabama are preparing to embark more largely than over in the manufacture of cotton goods, in which they have two important advantages over the Northern manufacturer, name ly, in the greater cheapness of labor, and the saving of transportation, both in respect to the raw material and their manufactured product, all of which find a ready home market. In fact, in the language of the News and Courier, the time is last approaching when the North ern manufacturer must “close up or come South.” In other words, he will be compelled to recognize the fact, tar iff or no tariff, that his very existence depends upon locating in the vicinity of raw material, and rely upon fair busi ness profits, such as shall tend to the equalization of wealth, and not the building up of artificial values at the expense of general prosperity. Con templating with confidence ti e inevita,. ble tendency of events, the Memphis Appeal declares the South has only to “wait and watch.” No mind can com prehend her future greatness In less than twenty years most of the cotton raised in the South will be manu factured in the South. A cotton facto ry in every neighborhood will be as in dispensable as a cotton gin. When all the cotton factories of tho North shall have been transferred to the South, what a valuable accesssion will be made to our capital, labor and population. — Savannah News. Death of Andrew Johnson. Cincinnati, July 31.- -The Gazette’s Greenville special says: This morning at about 2 ex -President Andrew John son died at the residence ot his daughter, Mrs. W. R. Brown, formerly Mrs. Slour, in Carter county, from a paraly tic stroke. He had been in rather bad health since the adjournment of the last session of Congress, but nothing serious was anticipated. On Wednesday morning he left on the train for Carter’s Station and from thence he went on horseback to his daughters residence, about seven miles, riding in* the hot sun. Arriving there he felt very much fatigued, and the same morning about 4 o’clock his right side was paralyzed, rendering him speechless. His wife was with him at the time. His son Frank and daughter, Mrs. Patterson, were at once sent lor. and left Greenville on Thursday. About noon he became conscious but had a partial use of his side again, and it was evident that the Great Commoner could nof live long; and thus surround ed by his entire family and neighbor ing friends, he yielded up the ghost about two o’clock this morning. The excitement here and at Knoxville is in tense. It is expected that a large del egation will arrive from Kcoxville to attend the funeral. A public meeting is in session at the Court House, which will make an organization to receive visitors from abroad. The funeral will take place at Greenville on Tuesday, August 3d. Several Masonic lodges, military companies and civil associations from adjoining towns will join with the citizens in paying the last tribute to his remains. The bhdy will arrive here to morrow. A great many distinguished citizens from all sections of the United States are sending telegrams to this place, stating their desire to be present at the List sad rites. The family are greatly overcome with their sad bereave ment, in which they have the sympathy of the whole community. Griat Ivest ruction of Rattle snakes in the Woods of Peua sylvania. SnonoLA Station, July 16.—A blind man named Henry Qrferidoff, a native of Wisconsin, and a man named John Depuy, from the western part of Ohio, got off an Erie train at this place, and crossing over into New York State, stopping over night at Barryville. On the following morning they recrossed the river into Pennsylvania, and started for Shohola Falls, six miles northwest, at or near which place they had rela tives residing. Depuy is a great trout fisherman, and, purchasing a fishing rod and basket, the two started on their way, Depuy having concluded to find the Shohola creek on their way up. Leaving Shohola they, walked about a mile when they reached the creek, and Depuy commenced fishing. He fished for about three miles,meeting with good success, when the two coming to an open spot on the right bank of the stream, sat down to rest and lunch. While lunching, Depuy had his attention di rected to a small ridge of rocks on the opposite 3ide of the creek, by a peculiar rattling uoise. He was satisfied that a rattesnake den was not far distant, and telling his blind companion of the fact, Depuy forded the stream. Reaohing the opposite shore, he walked a few rods up the hill, when suddenly his atten tioti was drawn to an old dried limb,up on which lay coiled a huge rattlesnake. He halloed to his blind comrade to as certain whether he was in hearing dis tance,and receiving an answer he return ed to assist him across the stream. To gether the two walked to where Depuy had seen the rattlesnake, when Orfen doff sat down. Seizing a stout stick, De puy approached within reaching distance and dealt the reptile a sudden blow kill ing it instantly. No sooner had he kill ed the snake than Orfendoff called to him, saying he felt something strange crawl over his feet. Depuy started to return to his comrade, when he observed a huge rattle snake, not ten feet from where the blind man sat, and another not three feet away, coiled and ready to spring. Depuy struck at the furthest snake, but missed it, the snake escaping into the rocks. He requested Orfen doff to remain perfectly quiet while he slowly approached to within reaching distance and attacked the reptile. The snake drew back its head in time to es cape the blow. Depuy again raised his stick, but before he could bring it down, the snake struck the blind man, bury ing his fangs deep into the fleshy part of his right leg, just below the knee. As the snake was about to strike the second time, Depuy struck it a blow which killed it. lie then examined his eompanion. The blood was oozing from the wound, and the limb began to swell rapidly. Having heard that fresh dirt immediately applied to a snake bite was almost certain cure, he secured some, and after repeated applications of this antidote the swelling began to dis appear, and in about two hours the leg was reduced almost to its natural size, and the unfortunate man was able to slow ly resume his journey. They took a dif ferent course, and met with no further mishap until they were about to ascend a small ledge of rocks near a swamp. Reaching the summit of the ledge, De puy again heard the deadly rattle, and at the base of the hill ho discovered many poisonous reptiles coiled upon stones and sticks. The snakes was of various sizes, f-om two and a half to four and a half feet in length. He set to work dispatching them, and in less than fifteen minut<& he had killed for ty-nine the rest making their escape into the rocks and underbush. It was now getting dark, and having nearly three miles to go, the two started on their way to the Falls, which place they reached without any further ad. ventures. Four or five weeks ago, subsequent to the fires in the woods, seve r al cows and a number of sheep, while pasturing in the woods, wandered into these dens and wero bitten, one cow and three sheep dying from the bites. The sur rounding neighborhood is quite thickly populated, and several persons have been bitten within the past few years,— New York Sun. The South. —Speaking of the South, tne Boston Post says that a fire could not clean out a doomed territory more com pletely than the carpet-bag fraternity, chartered and protected from Washing ton, devoured the remnant of substances which was tile South’s only reliance in a straggle for recovery. But it is every thing that labor has at last opened its eyes to the truth, and comprehends the vital points of the situation. When the blacks suffer, then they are able to see that it is because the whits suffered before them and they reasou very clearly from the effect to the cause. When they finally understand that whole States have been impoverished, whose productive resour ces once seemed limitless, they are able to conceive that it was accomplished by influences from without, that, however commended to their approbation, have proved themselves treacherous, destuc ive and cruel. A Man Thrown Five Hundred Feet in the Air. —Six men were killed by the explosion in Close's paper mill,in lowa City, lowa, last Thursday. The siYth was a Scotchman named Walter Sint,on, who was seen to go up with the tank and over it an estimated height of five hundred feet, falling, went through the roof of tho paint shop,seventy yards away from the mill, knocking a hole through the shingles and the inch sheathing beneath, and breaking two rafters. He was found lying on the fiber of tho room beneath. The loss of Mr. Cloese is about 820,000. It is decided that it was a chemical explosion.

Cotton Manufacture in the South. The late reports of the Augusta and Graniteville factories may discourage some friends of cotton manufacuring in the South, but if they will view the mat ter in all its bearings and surrouudings, we think they will see that there is no cause for distrust or desondency. For nearly two years the country has been suffering in all its business interests from a state of depression and stagnation of a very extraordinary character. W hat large or general business has pros pered during this period? \\ hat one has not had to curtail its operations, or to see its customary profits almost entire ly lost? The industry which has during this period maintained itself in its lull proportions, even without making any clear profits, has done well. This the cotton manufacturing business of the South has done. The Augusta and Gran iteville mills,unfavorable as their raports may seem, have done still better. They have recently declared quarterly divi dends of 2 per oent. equal to 8 per cent, per annum. No doubt they could have done still better by merely taking care of the interests of the stockholders—re ducing wages or shortening the working tium of their employes. But this they have not done. With a regard for the interests of all working for them, which we hope may ever mark the conduct of Southern manufacturers, they have re tained their force and paid living wage The Augusta company have done still better—if not for themselves, for opera tives who work in the mills. They have, within this period of depression and stagnation,built another large factory to give employment to hundreds of additio nal hands. They may not profit by this new enterprise and expenditure while the present unfavorble condition of trade and industry cotinues, but when prosper ity returns to other great branches of business they will be in a position ena bling them to run smoothly along on the first swell of the tide and to reap then the reward to which their enterprise and liberality gives them a good claim. The continued activity of cotton man ufacturing at the South is evidence of its enduring vitality, and the temporary suspension of large dividends afford no cause for alarm. The business is now firmly established, as its continued act ivity during times such as these suffi ciently proves. Such a trial ought to give it strength and increased confidene in its permanence and its profits under more propitious conditions. #nv gulmtijsmcitts. 03 ROOM SHERIFF’S SALES. )) in the town of Calhoun, on the first Tuesday in Nept. next, the following prop erty to-wit: Lots of land Nos. 127, 162 and 130 in the 7th District and 3rd Section, and 146, 179, ISO and 293 in the 24 Dtstrict and 2d Sec tion of Gordon county, as the property of W.
