Third, Colonel Cothran, of Abbeville;
Fourth, Colonel Jones, of York; Fifth,
Johnson Haygood, of Barnwell. The Con
vention is decidedly in favor of a straight
out Democratic nomination. The negroes
were somewhat belligerent on the, streets
this afternoon, but are Very scarce and quiet
to-night. The Convent ion adjourned till ten

Phii.adei.phia, August 15. —H. H. Landis,
a merchant broker, doing business here,
was arrested, charged with forgery. He
forged the names of Samuel Bliss & Cos.,
Chicago; H. Bishoff, of Charleston, S. C.;
A. Y. Stokes & Cos., Richmond, and others.
The forgeries amount to about SIOO,OOO. He

Columbia, S. C., August 10.—W. W. Har
lee was elected permanent President of the
State Democratic Convention last night in
secret session. The convention, in secret
session all day, decided to nominate a State
ticket. The doors were opened at six p.m.,
and Wade Hampton was unanimously nomi
nated for Governor. The convention ad
journed until to-morrow. An immense, en
thusiastic torchlight procession, in ratifica
tion of Tilden arid Hendricks, is now pass
ing. The nomination of Hampton for Gov
ernor was received with immense enthusiasm.
His speech prior to his nomination was in
full accord with the St. Louis convention.
The other nominations will be made to-mor
row. The Tilden and Hendricks ratification
meeting to-night was a grand success. The
torchlight procession was fully a mile and a
half in length, and was the grandest ever
seen in this State. The State canvass is re
garded by Democrats as subordinate to that
of the election ofTilden and Hendricks.
Lynchburg, August 1C. —The damage
caused by the water spout on the Virginia
Midland road, near this place, has been re
paired and trains are now passing to-day on
schedule time.
Saratoga, August 17. —The conference of
the managers of South* rn railroads concluded
its session to day. The business committee
reported, recommending remedial measures
for evils now existing and threatening to
bankrupt the property committed to their
care, and to reform the existing management
by restoration of rates for through business
to prices fair and just as between companies
and patrons, and adjusted with reference to
uniformity arid permanence so far as may be
found practicable.
Second —Asa means of avoiding injurious
competition, the committee recommend a
division of territory, as between competing
lines, when practicable, and when such ar
rangement cannot be effected, then to divide
the business at competing points. When
competing roads cannot agree, then refer
matters to arbitration.
Third—Abandonment of payment of com
mission to influence trade or travel between
competing lines. Kora furtherance of these
views it is recommended that Southern rail
road and steamship lines from a permanent
association, as an organization calculated to
effect much good in promoting fair manage
ment between competing lines; and it is
urged upon the managers of all roads in their
section to become members and abide by the
regulations and decisions of said association.
It was furthermore recommended to have
annual reunions at this place of the mana
gers and parties interested in the railways of
the country, for such consultation and ac
tion as may be deemed useful to the inter
ests represented.
The President was requested to give prop
er notice of the next reunion at loth to liOth
of August, 1877. The discussion of this re
port and some other resolutions introduced
elicited much valuable information regard
ing the several roads represented, and mem
bers feel that muck benefit will ensue from
this consultation.
FOREIGN.
London, August 10.—Eight American,
three Hutch, one London, and six Liverpool
representatives of the cotton trade, met in
convention here yesterday. Mr. Samuel
Simpson, of New Orleans, presided. He
stated the objects of the meeting, as declared
in the resolutions of the American National
Cotton Exchange inviting it.
Mr. Nicholson, of Liverpool, moved that
Liverpool drawn samples of American cotton
are, on an average, worse in appearance and
consequently, in class, 1 - Hid. to Jd. per
pound than those drawn in America before
the cotton is compressed, and that severer
pressure will further deteriorate the class.
Unanimously adopted.
Mr. Samuel Smith, of Liverpool, moved
that it is desirable that cotton should be sold
in America at its net weight, and that the va
rious exchanges in America he requested to
endeavor Jo give effect to this recommenda
tion. Unanimously adopted.
Other resolutions were unanimously adopt
ed to the effect that the system of sampling
cotton iu America should be the same as the
Liverpool system. That it is desirable that
the same classification of American cotton
shotfld he adopted in all European and Amer
ican markets, according to the standards to he
furnished by the Liverpool Association, to be
ratified by the American National Exchange;
that the several Exchanges in America be re
quested to appoint inspectors to certify to the
condition of all cotton exported ; that suffi
cient care is not taken by shippers in deliver
ing cotton at Liverpool, which should be
amended, and that this conference adjourn
until next duly, to; meet at Liverpool, at
the call of the United Association at Liv
erpool and the Liverpool Cotton Brokers’
Association, which are empowered to invite
delegates from American and European Ex
changes.
Madrid, August 12. —The heat is fearful,
and the temperature is higher than since 1800.
Forty lield laborers died near Seville from
heat. The vines in Andalusia are scorching
London, August 12. —The report that Mr.
Disraeli will be elevated to a peerage is con
firmed.
Shanghai, August 14. —The French Mis
sion Chapel at Ning Hooe Foo, province of
Ngan lloei, was attacked by the populace
during the celebration of mass. The priest
and many of the congregation were killed.
• Bki.grade, August 14. —Prince Milan de
clares the condition of the Servian forces to
be very satisfactory, and announces his reso
lution to continue the war to the last ex
tremity.
Paris, August 14.—President McMahon
has liberated one hundred and sixty one per
sons imprisoned for participation in the out
rages during the Commune troubles.
London, August 14.—The Mark Lane Ex
press, in its review of the British corn trade,
says : Harvesting is everywhere in progress.
The recent showers have benefitted pastures
and root crops without damaging the grain.
Farmers in many districts of England and
France are disappointed at the wheat yield,
which is less than expected, although the
quality is good. Barley and oats are also
likely to be somewhat short. Local trade
has been dull, and is likely to remain so till
the result of the home and foreign harvest is
definitely known.
London, August 15. —A dispatch to the
Standard, from Belgrade, says it is reported
that the Turks have advanced beyond Bonja
and the Servians have evacuated an impor
tant pass without firing a shot. It is quite
possible that the constant rumors of Turk
ish advances aud Servian retreats are exag
gerated, but it cannot be denied that the
prospect of the Servians is becoming more
gloomy. Rumors of their evacuationjof de
files leading from Guergosovatz. to Deligrad,
and from Saitschar to Parakin, though un
confirmed, is highly probable. If the Turks
push forward it is more than likely that the
expected great battle at Alexinatz or Deli
grad will never be fought. The officials con
tinue to assure the public of their ability to
beat the Turks, but, nevertheless, consterna
tion prevails on the streets, and must continue
as the number of runaways increases.
Madrid, August 15.—1n spite of statements
to the contrary, a ministerial crisis exists.
The return of Queen Isabella bodes no good.
The removal of the members of the cabinet
who took part in the revolution against her
is contemplated.
London, August 17. —A dispatch from
Belgrade to the Standard says war mani
fests will be issued by Prince Milan to-day,
declaring that Servia and Montenegro will
fight together to the last man.
The Times correspondent at Ragusa an
nounces that the report of a severe defeat of
the Turks at Kuci is confirmed. According
to Montenegrin accounts, Mahmoud Pasha,
with twenty thousand men, advanced into
the ravines of Kuci on Monday. His army
was attacked on all sides, routed and pur
sued by the Montenegrins from Medon to
Podboritza, where the Turks were protected
by their artillery. The Montenegrins esti
mated the Turkish loss at 8,000. No doubt
that this is the great est disaster of the war.

MACON, GEORGIA, AUGUST 22, 1870.
XACOOCHEE AND ITS SURROUNDINGS
We wrote our last at New Holland. Hav
ing spent a few very pleasant days there, we
left in company with a few friends for Nacoo
chee Valley where we purposed to make a
long expected visit to our friend Captain
J. 11. Nichols. We departed from New
Holland, on what is called the accommoda
tion train, which had only one car for pas
sengers, and that was packed to its fullest
capacity. On our arrival at Belton, where
the Northeastern road to Athens connects
with the Air-Line, a number of passengers
got off which gave us more room.
The Northeastern road is now nearly com
plete, and will no doubt greatly help to build
up Athens, as well as develope the country
through which it pa-ses. It is now under
the superintendance of our old friend, R.
L. Moss, and is bound to succeed under his
management. A splendid new engine, named
“R. L. Moss,” with two fine passenger
coaches have just been put on the road, and
in a few days the trains will run regularly
between Athens and Belton.
Arriving at Mount Airy, the highest, point
on the road, we left the cars and took hacks
to Nacoochee. A few hours ride brought us
to the pleasant village of Clarkesville, where
we were detained about an hour. Here we
met Bro. K. A. Gray, the pastor of our
Church, who was in the midst of a glorious
revival. lie urged us to stop and help him.
If we had been well, nothing would given us
more pleasure, hut as we did not feel able to
do so we had to decline. The meeting had
been a progress about two weeks, and twen
ty-two have joined the Church at Clarkes
ville. While waiting for the hack we fell in
company with an old merchant of the vil
lage. He was quite communicative, and in
terested us with his conversation. He staled
a singular fact in his history. He had been
selling goods at that place for forty-nine
years, and had never had a clerk or a part-
When he is compelled to go away he
closes up his store and leave the keys with
his wife. “Then” said hp, “when I come
hack I am sure to find my goods.”
Leaving Clarkesville at a late hour, we
traveled thirteen miles by hack over a line
road which brought ns to the home of Cap
tain Nichols at the west end of the valley.
It was late, but the captain give us a hearty
welcome, such an one as he is capable of
doing, and surely none ever gave one more
hearty.
So much has been written about Captain
Nichols’ elegant home that we are at a loss
what to write, hut we can say like the Queen
of Sheba —“ that the halfhad not been told”
of the beauties of his place and all its mag
nifieient surroundings. His mansion is built
after a beautiful design, and contains all
the modern improvements. He has cool
spring water carried to every part of the
building in pipes. Has a gas machine with
which he has been lighting his entire premis
es, hut which is now a little out of order.
His rooms are large and well ventilated,
each having a handsome bay window —has
verandahs all around the Crst story, and his
parlors and halls are handsomely decorated
with oil paintings and chromos, some of them
representing the scenery around him, such
as Tallulah and Toccoa Falls, Nacoochee
Valley, Annie ltuby Falls. These latter falls
have recently been discovered by Captain
Nicholas, and are named for his lovely
daughter. We are sorry we did not see them,
but heard from all who had visited them that
they are really more beautiful than either
Toccoa or Tallulah.
We visited Duke’s Creek Falls, near Cap
tain Nichols. These are most picturesque,
and if they were more accessible we feel sure
they would soon be rated with the other no
table places of this beautiful country. The
waterfalls some eighty or ninety feet over
four rocky ledges, making a succession of as
many falls, and presenting a most charming
picture, as we stand either at the base or
upon a hill just in front of the Falls. To the
right of the main falls a second cataract
comes rushing down from a different direc
tion, and the waters rushing over these two
falls blend together and make their way down
Duke’s Creek to the Chattahoochee.
But to return to the home of Captain
Nichols. Besides the house, which is all
that could be desired, all the surroundings
are most tastefully arranged. Just in front
of his elegant mansion is a most handsome
front yard. First there is a beautiful flower
garden filled with the choicest varieties of
flowers of almost every hue and kind. Then
there is an elegant lawn of blue grass, in
which two fountains are constantly playing.
Just in the rear of his house a large brook
from a mountain spring runs the entire length
of his yards and lots, supplying them with
fresh, cool water, and then he has a fine
bold spring, and below it a spring house in
which he keeps his milk and butter as cool
as ice. The brook above alluded to also
furnishes his fish ponds with pure water.
He has just in the rear of his house a park
for deer, and ample arrangements for his
horses and cattle. Indeed everything that
is necessary to make a perfect home can be
found here. One of the most beautiful points
in the picture is a large Indian Mound in the
valley about fifty yards from and just in front
of the house. This is adorned with a beau
tiful summer house and flower garden.
In addition to all that Captain Nichols has
done for his own comfort, he has not forgot
ten his neighbors, but has built and fitted
up in elegant style, one of the prettiest little
churches we have ever seen. It is beautifully
situated and has a handsome spire that can
he seen among the trees of the grove in which
it sits so quietly. This edifice cost $2,000,
every dollar of which Captain Nichols paid,
and when finished he made a deed of it to
the Trustees of the Presbyterian Church, of
which he is an active member. Here Cap
tain Nicholas has a flourishing Sabbath-
SOUTHERN CHRISTIAN ADVOCATE.
school, which is composed of the sons and
daughters of the neighboring farmers and
laborers, some of whom walk three or
four miles. What a glorious work 1 Surely
the Lord will not fail to bless this generous
Christian man.
We spent the second Sabbath in this month
in this beautiful country church; at request
of the pastor, Rev. Mr. Davis, we preached
at 11 o'clock, to as attentive a congregation
aa we ever saw. At 44 p. m., Mr. Davis
preached a most excellent sermon.
During our stay in Nacoochee Valley we
had the pleasure to meet several old friends
of former years. Among these was old fath
er Richardson, whom we knew in the valley
thirty-five years ago. He is quite old, but
still preaches, and is waiting until the Mas
ter calls.
We dined during cur stay with that prince
of merchants, Geo. W. Williams, Esq., of
Charleston, S. C. Here he started in the
world with ten dollars, which he made on
the top of an Indian mound, which, when
dry, he watered by carrying water from the
river and watering each hill of corn. He has
built a commodious house on a most elegant
situation at the east end of the valley, which
he is adorning and beautifying. When com
pleted this will be a most delightful summer
residence where Bro. Williams and his inter
esting family will spend their summers and
their winters in Charleston, where he is
erecting a splendid munsiou, upon the site of
an old English residence. He is near the
old home of his father, who settled in this
valley in 1822. He emigrated from North
Carolina with his wife and children. He
was a man of great energy. Besides Geo.
W. Williams, Esq., he has two other sons in
the valley, Charles L. Williams, a prosper
ous merchant, and E. P. Williams, a farmer,
and one daughter, the wife of Dr. E. F.
Starr, a skillful physician.
There is a flourishing school in the valley,
under the control of Rev. J. J. Methvin,
who is building up a good school. He is
quite popular.
There is one good feature in Nacoochee
valley, there is not a liquor shop in the dis
trict. There has not been a drop retailed
for years. This accounts for the good order
and the fine character of the people who
dwell in this lovely valley.
Our own Church in Nacoochee is under
the pastoral control of Rev. W. R. Branham,
Jr., who is exceedingly popular. One good
brother said, “we have had Bro. Branham
two years, we fear we cannot keep him any
longer.” Bro. Branham was absent from
his work, so we did not get to see him. He
had gone over to Rabun to help Bro. Bon
ner in a revival. We regret that our time
was so short that we could not have remain
ed in the valley and seen him on his return.
Our people are putting up a handsome
new church near the site of the old Method
ist church in Nacoochee. The old church
is used as a school house.
We shall never forget the kindness shown
us by our friends in Nacoochee, and if our
life is spared we shall see them again and
stay longer next time. Our companions in
this delightful visit were Major J. C. Whit
ner and his three daugliters and Miss Hurt,
all of Atlanta.
MtOPEKSOK SCO.MI’.
Mr. 11. A. Sconip, late President of TVar
ren College, Bowling Green, Ivy., and re
cently elected Professor of Greek and Hebrew
at Emory College, will be in place at the
opening of the Fall Term, September Cth.
Prof. Scomp has had the best advantages in
this country and in Europe. He comes with
the highest indorsement as a scholar, a
teacher, a man and a Christian. He has
few equals, perhaps no superiors, among us
in his department. The College is to he
congratulated upon the addition of such a
man to its corps of instruction.
THE AIR-LINE RAILROAD.
In our recent wanderings in Upper Geor
gia, we have been placed under many obli
gations to Col. J. B. Peck, superintendent of
the above popular railroad,for courtesies ex
tended. This is one of the best managed
roads in the South, and it is doing a large
business. Persons going North will And this
route most desirable. It has twelve hours
the advantage of other lines, and rarely ever
misses a connection. They lost two hours on
one trip, owing to the giving out of the en
gine, and made up the time between that
point (‘JO miles from Atlanta) and Charlotte.
