The Prospect In Georgia.

Our Opposition friends in Georgia are
making vigorous and, we trust, a success
full fight. Their candidate for Governor
WARREN AKIN, is winning golden opinions
wherever he goes. In the Congressional dis
tricts the Opposition will certainly gain one,
and perhaps four. They had two members
in the last Congress and will possibly have
six in the next. The Augusta Chronicle gives
the following good tidings:
1--WE have the most cheering news from all
parts Of the State, except the North Eastern.
and Warren Akin, the honest. the incor-
ruptible, will soon be heard in that section.
Wherever he has gone he has made troops of
friends and we doubt not bis success in The
northeast will be equally as great as in the
other sections, where he has already been.
The people are focking to his standard
wherever he goes The day of misrule is
well-nigh over, we sincerely hope aud be-
lieve.
In the Congressional contest we are certain
of three districts, aud may possibly carry six.
Joshua Hill will have an increased majority
in thu 9Th. Hardeman will carry the Sd tri-
umphantly- his majority will not be less than
five hundred, and may possibly reach eight
hundred or thousand. Nothing but a
special interposiiion of providence can pre-
vent Wiight's carrying the sth. In the LIST,

people will only actively bestir themselves
all over the district, We have no doubt of IL.
In the Columbus District, Marcellus Donglas
has aroused AN enthusiasm which threatens
10 overcome Crawford, notwithstanding the
loud boast OF his friends. They have already
reduced their figures one-hslt. Col. WIN. +.

A NOVEL KIND OF NEwsPAPER--Messrs.
Smith & Livingstone, of New York, contem-
plate the issue of a miscellaneous weekly
journal, to be called The Neso Yorh Spirit of
the Press. of the size, form and price OF the
Home Journal, new in its plan and in its fea-
lures, and sure TO be interesting. 1t is in
tended to give the cream both of the dailies
of that city and of the prominent religious

answering practically the purpose of re-
view, in separating the grain from the chat
and straw before serving it up TO the readers.
The more important productions of the
editors of those journals. accompanied occa-
sionally with notes and brief comments, will.
of course, find place. One department. oil
the paper will be devoted to brief and
comprehensive summary of the most impor-
tant aud interesting foreign and domestic news
both secular and religious. Such publica-
ton, judiciously and fairly conducted, would
prove a sort OF Galigna1n of the American
Press, says the New York Evening Post.

REPUBLICANS STRENGTHENING THE Admins
TRATIoN.-The New York correspondent OF
the National hntelligeacer, speaking of the ultra
grounds taken by the late Republican State
Convention, in relation to slavery, the terri
tories, &C., says that lit is now certain that
thousands and tens of thousands OF conserva-
tive men in New York, though opposed to
the democracy, will not identity themselves
with party taking such extreme grounds az
this Convention has taken" Thus it is that
80 far from these Republicans damaging the
Administration, they are in reality giving it
strength which otherwise it would not have.

German families are numerous. OF 95l pu-
pills in the lower rooms of that house, there
been, this session, no more than rs per

Fawkes,s steam Plough.

We find in the Cincinnati Gazette the report
of Committee of Machinists who we're ap-
pointed to test the value of the steam plough
invented by Mr.. J. w. FAwKEs. of Pennsyl-
vania, and exhibited at the illinois State
Fair. The Committee regard the plough as
success. The following is the conclusion
of their report:
Having thus in detail answered the inter-
rogatories propounded to US by the Execu-
tive Committee, we desire to make some
general remarks with reference to the practi-
cabiiity of employing steam for blowing. aud
other farm purposes. The experiments with
Fawkess steam plough engine have demon
strated TO our satisfaction that it is practi-
cable, that, in few years, large portion of
the labor now performed by animal power on
the farm will be superseded by steam, espe-
cially in prairie countries, aud on well i'm
proved farms, where but few stones or other
distractions exist.
The engine here exhibited is intended only
for large operations, being capable of break
ing from twenty-five to forty acres per day;
but we see no reasons why the size may not
be reduced very considerably (say to one
fourtb), and still successfully compete with
animal power. A skilled engineer, sent TO
witness this trial by the largest machinist in
Ohio, has reported favorably to his employer,
and a contract has already been made by
him with Mr.. Fawkes to build small engine
for his farm of three hundred acres.
We estimate the cost of blowing by it from
the following very liberal data:
USED PER DIEM.
One ton OF coal S5 90
one cord of wood 3 90
Labor Of three men-engneer, fireman and assist :.
Of, % AMT 90 90
Ordinary and tear 90
Interest, 10 per cent on 81 90 II
Total $40 II
With the most liberal allowance for hauling
water and coal one mile. for stoppages and
tnrnings, the machine should pillow 25 acres
per day At present contract prices of So 80
per acre for prairie breaking. this would cost
S62 So while by the above estimate 1t is seen
that Fawkes's plows for GAZE per acre.
Your Committee regret that accidents to
the other competitors, before reaching the
ground, should have prevented test of the
comparative merits of the several plans al
ready adopted, and about to be presented
to the public The interest manifested IN the
progress of this trial. not only by the visi-
tors upon the show grounds. but by the pub
lie at large will no doubt stimulate other ag-
ricultural bodies to follow thhe example so
noby set by the Illinois State Agricultural
Society, and thus ample opportunity Will De
afforded for fair competition.
Your Committee, in view of the result of
their experiments, unanimously recommend
that the First Prize of. three thousand dol
lars be awarded to J. w. Fawkes, OF Chris
tiana, Lancaster county Pa, for his Steam
Plow.
