The News of Monday says the Right Rev erend Augustin Verot, Bishop of Savannah, and the Very Rsveiand Peter Defau, Vicar General, left the city on Saturday by the Cen tral Railroad, eu route for the Holy City, for the purpose of taking part iu the Ecumenical Council, which is to assemble in December next The Constitutionalist of Saturday says: The lower portion of the city was somewhat con vulsed, yesterday morning, with the report that two daughters of a Mrs. Hubbard, Mattie aud Uettie, had clandestinely eloped, one of them with a vivacious aud sprightly youth of some sixteeu summon, familiarly known as Johnny Moore, son of Capt.

We con gratulate the people, of Northeast Georgia, on the result, aud join with then), in hearty thanks to the enterprising men who have de voted all their energies to the accomplish ment of so important a measure. The Constitutionalist of Sunday says: The way freight train on the Georgia Railroad, due here at 2:30. p. yesterday, was fired into near the Three Mile Post, by a couple of white men, who boldly showed themselves, presenting their guns and firing into the cab ear. Conductor Whit. Edwards and a lady passenger were ia the oar, aud were each struck. The charges were of small shot, but were buried in the neck of the lady, and pen etrated the clothing of the conductor. We are glad to know, however, that no serious wounds were inflicted, and that the shot can he extracted without any severe damage to the unfortunate lady who eras made the victim of this infamous act.

Con gress was the law making power—we all ac knowledged as much whou we surrendered the Confederate Cause aud Military Forces—- aud it was not with tu to say what should or shonld uot be the terms of rc-admission. If however, the following admission by the Telegraph does uot reveal tire cut iu the ureal tub, then we do uot road correctly : "But if the quostionof a repeal of this w hole series of unconstitutional enactments (i. e. the Reconstruction IaHws of Congress) ever couics be fore tho American people, the Nxw Kua need never doubt for a moment where he will find the Telegraph." Is this theu what tho Telegraph calls "ac- ptiug tho situation in good faith?" It bo- lieves Reconstruction us accomplished to bo unconstitutionaland from thence it must ooucede the legitimate deduction that tho State Governments, established by virtue of those Acta, to be unconstitutional, unauthorized, aud therefore void ub initio. And yet cherish ing this conviction, it will vote to reseat the negro members of tho Legislature for tho specific purpose of ratifying Reconstruction aud preserving the State Government! If there be "no cut in the bag," is the Telegraph theu vulnerable to tho charge of insincerity without a motive? We are sorry that a mau so able, and usu ally consistent as the editor of the Telegraph, should have fallen into a position at once sc awkward and untenable. If, under all the clr cunmlancet, we did uot deem tbs XIVth Article both “Constitutional” aud expedient, should certainly not feel solicitous for the success oi Reconstruction thereunder! .Hock Dignity not Hssrntlal to Clrcatncss —l>cn. Grant aud hU t ubinet Ministers. The txumple of President Grant in culling upon the Departments and the Cabinet M ters, is a reversal of tho modern " Democratic" idea that " tho President can call upon no body " without a sacrifice of dignity; and has, therefore, become a subject for comment by all who seek even tho most trivial occasions for detraction. Wo are glad the President has seen proper to do this. It is another evidence of his ster- liug good sense. It brings ns back to the days of simple Republicanism when Presidents of the United States seemed to realize tho fact that they were represontive bends of a Repub lican government, aud not the awkward imi tators of Royalty and copyists of tho effete customs of Monarchical Courts. A truly great man never loses dig ity by an association with tho People; and aC*u*f Mag istrate who has the inunto qualities »f uigni- fied Statesmanship, detracts nothing .rom hit official character by calling npon those ifficers of Government who occupy a subordiu > loss exalted position. Thomas Jefferson John Quincy Adams, for instance, did uot compromise the dignity of their high dice, nor impair their own personal characters, tL. one by riding to his Executive officoon oorso back, and tho other by calling upon his Cabi net Ministers at their residences. They acted only c*» representative men of a great nation, based i .:ou the- idea of free government and Repnbucau iu .ututioug, would bo presumed to ac- under such circumstances. It w u'i Dr. Johnson who framed into words the convictions of all sensible men that "true great ness needs not the stilts and props of much diguity” to enforce its recognition, or tun tain its prestig e. Whilst it may be eminently fitting and proper lor men like Andy Johnson, whose greatness was accidental, and therefore ephemeral, to observe the empty pomps ceremonies of European Courts, but men like Old Hickory Jackson and Thomas JtflV Miscellaneous. Largs gold beads, strung on a bins velvet, are the latest fashion. There are eighty thousand children in the pobUo schools of N. Y. city.

Table differs—Tho dinner table fills yon; the gambling tnble empties you; the multipli- tion enables you to mako a good figure.

A l ulled Stales Senator on the Southern Pacific Railroad. At tho Union mass meeting at the Metropo litan Theatre, on Monday night, sa}s the Daily Alta Californian of September 2d., Sen ator Kellogg, of Louisiana, spoke at some length on the Southoru Pacific Railroad en terprise. But a brief synopsis of his remarks were printed, aud for the genoral good they are herewith printed from the notes of the re porter: Mr. Kellogg said: Ho had long had ai dent desire to visit the State in the bosom of which rest the ashes of tho noble Broderick, [cheers] as also those of the gallunt Baker, [oheers] who fell iu defeuso of his country amid the thuoderiug bluffs this side of Lees burg [Cheers.]- lie had long wished to visit a country containing such splendid scenery, with such evidences of the enterprise, energy and intelligence of its people us are to be seen ou every hand. How could it be other wise than that a people should bo intelligent and enterprising iu u high degreo who c raratively a few years since left the older States, and bidding farewell to friends and the old homestead with all its endearing associa tions, traveled across trackless prairies and plains stretching toward the setting sun, and climbing almost inaccessible mountains, final ly planted themselves upon the shores of tho Pacific, building, as by magic, a great com mercial metropolis; founding a great State like California, and establishing throughout a civilization of free labor? [Applause.] A people who penetrated to the utmost verge of a continent to live amid snow-capped mountains on tho ono baud, and fertile and luxuriant valleys on the other, a great ocean in front, the irresistible waves of which roll from your Goldcu Gate nil around the world. [Cheers.] T1 heart of every American, whether ho conn fror- tho East or the South, or from tho Mis sis ippi Valley, swells wiih pride and exulta tiou when he reflects that this is a part of our common country [cheers,] aud that it is the same, loyal heart of tho people that dwell amid the granite hills of New England aud in tho sunny South, and on tho broad prairies of the West, that palpitates audibly in the crowded ik. -cnbly and along tho Pacific Slope. [Applause.] The completion of tho Pacific Railroud has, by annihilating distance, brought the two extremes of the country to- K-•tln-r, and established a great community of interest : it has in a great measure changed tho pathway of tho commerce of tho whole world. [Applause.] It has brought the Oc cident and the Orient, the Celt and tho Sax on, together iu direct commercial intercourse for the first time. But, let no oue suppose that this enterprise, gigantic as iti*», will long bo without competition. In a fuw years at most a Southern Railroad will bo built from the Mississippi River to the Pacific Ocean, as far south at least as thirty-second p.iralloi--[clieors]» a road i ning through the fertile and boundless prairies of Texas; through a country West of that Shite, almost every acre of which abounds in agricultural wealth, susceptible of develop meut, with a mild mid salubrious climate all tho year a'ound; through a country where vast sterile plains meet the eye on even side, where there exists no need for snow-shedi and where there can be no impediment to commerce at auy season of the year—a road connecting tho southern portion of your State, and I believe the most fertile, having ou< the best harbors on this coast, with the great commercial metropolis of the South, where concentrates so much of the wealth and iutcl ligence and enterprise of the South, am’ which, like some Eastern Queen resplendent I i-neath her diadem, situ at the mouth of a river twice as long as the Danube and five times longer than the Rhine, having, with its affluents, aline ot more than 10,000 miles of navigable waters-a city which is destined to receive into her lap and pass through her por tals into tho Gulf of Mexico almost the entire commcice of tho Mississippi Valley, amount ing already to two billions annually, or three times tho whole foreign commerce of tho Uni ted States. It is the boast ot an Englishmen that the Thames is navigable almost a hundred mil from its mouth. It is the bonst of an Amei can that a steamboat leaving New Orlcuus a navigate thirteen hundred miles, und then turning into another river, traverse that near ly threo thousand miles. [Laughter and ap plause.] You may depend upon it that ia u very short time we will have a railroad from your magnificent city by way of the southern portion of your State, through Texas to New Orleans, which will bo shorter, more direct aud of less grade than is the road just completed—pass ing through a country unsurpassed in agricul tural und mineral wealth, and as perouuiul as tho ebb and flow of the tide. From tbouco- torth the entire commerce of tho East with this country will corao to your shores, to go hence upon a thousand axles across the conti nent, to the cities of the East and of the South, drawn by the Iron Horse, whose smoko will darkeu the landscape, while its presence, as the harbinger of civilization and prosperity, will make I ho hitherto waste places glad.— [Cheer*.] Tho Iieliaus are committing depredations iu Nebraska Territory. boy seven ycais of age, named Henry liner, was arrested in 8t.

Georgia needs development inch as does Virginia, and the sooner we 3 off hating anil fighting one another tho bolter it will bo for the State. The Enqoirer says: Now wo ourselves not only believe in physi cal development, but we always did beliove iu it Rbyuioal development is the basis, the foundation, of all other development. Until country is physically developed it will have no arts, no literature, no culture, no wealth, no power, and its religion will be a feeble light and not a candle set on a hill. We must develop Virginia—all of her mate rial resources. Wo must complete our rail roads, finish our canals, opeu up our mines, utilize our water courses, build up our cities. And that is the great job of these years just r to come. OFFICIAL ADVERTISEMENTS a mkoclamatIonl $1,000 ^Reward.
