At a meeting of tlie Democratic mem bers of the Legislature of tlie First Congressional District, held this day, the following resolution was adopted : R “solved, That wo recommend that a Convention of the Democratic Pqrty of the First District be held at Blacksbear, on the 13th of September proximo, at twelve o’clock m., for the purpose of nominating a candidate toreprcse.it the district in the next Congress. John C. Niciiolls, Chairman. T. M. Beuuie.v, Secretary. HON. ALPHEUS M. RODGERS. The Atlanta Constitution of the 4th instant says : We sec that the name of Hon. Alfiieus M. Rodgers, of Burke county, has been suggested as a candi date for Congress in the First District. A more consistent Democrat, a braver aoldier, a firmer friend, or a truer man has not been named than Alfueus M. Rodgers. If elected be will represent the First District faithfully, truly and with credit to himself and constituents. OUR THIRD VOLUMF. With this issue begins the third year of The Expositor's life. To those who have bad but little cause to mark with watchful eye the lapse of time,-the period may seem short; lut to us who have learned “the sweet offices of adversity,” and struggled and toiled while others slept, each day has filled its appointed place of labor in the great cycle of eternity. Much have we had to stimu late and encourage, and much too to oppress and dishearten us. It is, in deed, a true saying that one half of the world does not know how the other half lives; and wheD we reflect that we have achieved at least a partial success under circumstances that promised far less, wc are almost astonished that we still move, and breathe, and have our being. Only one newspaper out of about every twelve hundred has more than an ephemeral existence; and nothing but patience, hope, and unremitting toil have sus tained us thus far. But we arc thank ful for the measure of prosperity we have enjoyed, and shall not relax our efforts so long as there remains a reason able prospect of establishing our paper upon anything like a permanent basis. In all sincerity we cau say that for Bufke county and her people we cherish ' the strongest attachments. Years ago, in our very youth, wc came to Waynes boro : First in the office of the News then under the editorial management of the gallant and lamented Walter A. Thompson; and afterwards in that, of the Independent South, presided over by our friend and subsequent comrade, 001. John D. Ashton. When the pride and honor of the South called her sons to the field, we went, in our seventeenth year, with the noble, true, and brave men who composed the “Burke Sharp Shooters,” to those scenes now for ever embalmed in history and the hearts of patriots everywhere. After the unhap py but heroic struggle was over, and the tri-colored flag was furled for over, we again returned, and cast onoe more our destiny amoug those with whom and whose sons and brothers we had march cd and fought. Both affection and honest pride brought us hither, and if possible we would live and grow old amid these cherished associations. But we owe it to ourself and those whom God has given us in charge, not to sac rifice everything to an idea; and with out prompt payments we can not live. That we might establish ourself in the confidence of the people of Burke— , or rather that we might satisfy them j 1 that a respectable paper could live and prosper here, if they desired it, we pub fished, almost without means, and with out assistance, The Expositor for twelve months, never risking a single patron to pay the amount of his subscription.— Our subscribers multiplied, nntil to-day we doubt if there boa country paper in Georgia whose list exceeds our own.— But they, in many instances, have failed to pay; and this, we honestly believe, more through inadvertence and forget fulness than anything else. Two dol lars is a small amount, we know, to most of them, and could be easily paid; hut I to us, in the aggregate, these sums con- J stitute our all. i With abundant crops, and a prosper i ous future before them, they do not re flect how day by day we suffer for the very pittance they have long since for gotten. Will (hey then not pay us ’— Burke county can and ought to sustain a first-class weekly; and if her people would reflect they would do it. We have now about fifteen hundred dollars charged on our books, every cent of which could bo paid without a single man's missing it. Think of it, friends, and send us the money. You will miss your county paper if it fail; and it is due to the character, and intelligence, and enterprise of the people of Burke county that they sustain a good journal in their midst. Will they do it ?or shall The Expositor go down, and dying give the lie to the boasted culture and public spirit of this people. Surely, if coun ties like Warren, Jefferson, and little McDuffie can support excellent weeklies, it would be shameful and disgraceful for Burke—the vaunted “Banner County” of Georgia —to fail to do so. Nous tenons. NOMINATING CONVENTION.

The Convention then adjourned to meet again in this place on Tuesday, the 3d of December next. Joskfii B. Jonhs, President. A. G. Whitehead, Secretary. ♦ • ♦ The Cotton Supply.—A corrcs pondentof the Savannah Republican gives the following good advice: “Since the year 18Gf>, “Cotton Sup ply” has been a matter in which all pro ducing citizens are very deeply interest ed. A want of co-operation on the part of planters, or in othsr words, their inde pendence of each other, has lost money to all, and left many of them in debt. The late war in this country compelled Europe to supply herself with cotton from other countries. She did so at large cost, and still continues to do so. Tiic cotton States of this continent arc located in the finest cotton belt of the world, and no other latitude can pro duce so good an article of either up lands or sea islands. European manu facturers require ouly a sufficient- quan tity of American cotton to make up the deficit from other countries. Our lands in many counties arc worn. Let planters keep all their cotton seed for fertilizing purposes. Sell none at any price to be sent abroad to keep up competition fields in- other countries. Let them plant other cereals to supply their plantations abundantly, reduce the planting of cot ton to an estimate of three million of bales for the erop of the South, and my word for it, planters will be independent in a few seasons.” Suing for Mob Law Damage. —The widows of the three men murdered in Cass county, Mo., some mouths since, by a mob of citizens, for alleged com plicity in the fraudulent issue of railroad bonds, have brought suit against the Sheriff of the county and thirty-five other citizens for damages occasioned by thes los of their husbands. Inquisitive Children. —Never laugh at a child when it asks a foolish ques tion. It is not foolish to the child. If a child is sensitive, one instance of laughing and ridicule, in such a case might chill its aspirations after self education. No matter how trivial a child's question may seem to be, it is entitled to a prompt, and kind answer. Blanton in Funds. —A Washington dispatch to the Baltimore Sun says: The prominent topic of conversation among the politicians here is the Blan ton Duncan business and the close iden tification of the Grant administration therewith The accusation that SSO, 000 has been placed to Duncau’s credit in a bank here, to be used by him in carrying on his straight-out convention scheme, has not been denied and seems not likely to be, and may therefore be set down as true. Suicideof an Eccentric.-- Dr. Jewett, of North Haven, Me., a liberally educat ed but very ccceutric old man, on Fri day last went into bis office, emptied a can of kerosene about the room, severed the femoral artery in both his thighs, and set tire to the place. The neigh bors seeing the flrmes ran to the sccu and found the old man with but a sin gle garment on, in the midst of the fire, and weltering in his blood. They drag ged him out, but he was past speech and died immediately. He had no family and live alone. ■ +--• —• A Chicago editor says ; “Somebody having applied to an editor for a method by which ho might cure his daughter of her partiality for young gentlemen, is kindly informed that there aro several methods of reform. The best are to put her in a well and drop a few loads of gravel on her head, or to bind her ankles to au anvil and upset her out of a boat. Ne vv Ad vertisemell ts. I-;i >1 '< ’A TM >X A I 7.
