A correspondent of tho Hawkinsville Dis patch, writing from Wilcox county, **y*:- T here is only one crop that the people w ill make, and that is corn.

Cottouis generally eat off about one-half.— Sugarcane, potatoes and the pea crop is most entirely cut off. The Hawkinsville Dispatch Icarus that a serious difficulty occurred at Levison, on the M. A B. Railroad last Saturday, in w hich Mr. John W. Harrell, of Tuioski county, received a severe wound in the breast from a knife m tho hands of his cousin, Mr. Sam Evans. Af ter the cutting Mr. Evans was severely beat en by Mr. Harrell’s negroes and was also by Mr. E, F. Lee, a brother-in-law of the lat ter. The difficulty was caused by old feud. The lives of both ure despaired of. A correspondent of the Macon Journal A Messenger, just returned from a trip through Webster, Lee, Dougherty and Laker counties, gives the following unfavorable account of the crops : “I find tho corn crop generally good, but not so good as it is in this county. The cotton crop through Lee, and the West ern portion of Dougherty, particularly on those fine lands on Fowl Town Creek, about old Byron, and eight or teu miles below, also arouud Palmyra, thero will bo abcut two- thirds of a crop, but not more than halt a crop on the roads throughout all the rest of the trip. The pea, potato and corn crops are a general failure, ou account of the severe drouth which has prevailed iu almost^all this section, with an occasional exception."

It is all tho more es sential by reason of the feet tbat the * •Dem ocracy " is hopelessly divided, and, through factious coalitions, seek to tamper with the virtue of such Republicans as may bo made serviceable to tbeir selfish scheme*. Thi* peaoo must be real. There must be no mental reservations. There must bo uo dodging of issues. The platform ol the Ho- pubiicdu parly cannot be accommodated to disxeutorH aud schismatics. It is a unity as to principles; Us division or modification without its niter destruction, is an impossibility. it means tho enforcement of tho construction Laws of Congress, including tho literal fulfillment of obligations imposed by the XlVlh Article. It mean* tJienaiomUoi the colored members to their phtcoa iu l State Legislature; and it moans tho ratilteuf ol the XYlh Amendment. These are the main local itiMi. w •>( the i*arty iu Georgia; aud the only way to moke party harmonious, is united actiou upou tl three cardinal issues. The last named is uot essential to tho reconstruction of Georgia, dor the existing law* of Congress. But the first named two are absolutely essential; am Bepublicans of all grades, uo matter whal may have beau their past defections ami mom taleroioluK should now promptly unite npoi tho great work La fore us. Personal feuds there have been. Differ uncos of opinion withm the ranks of tlic par ty, honestly entertained, may have, in som< instances, given rise to factions. These exist' cd iu the past Lot the past aloue. Wo hav* to do with tho present, with a view to the futnro. And, whilst these personal estra ut* aud minor differences are, uuder the skillful diplomacy of the patriotic, indefatigable and able officer in command of this Military District, in a fair way to be permanently healed, there yet remains much to bo done—and for borne —by all true Republicans who honestly desire Peace. Mon must be tolerant of other’s opinions. The standard of orthodoxy is tho XlVtli Article, tho full recognition of tho political rights of all meu uuder tho ex isting State Constitution, and an unqualified support of tho National Administration. This is easily found. No man need bo long in the dark; and when he finally plant* himself up ou these measures, ho is an orthodox Repub lican for all practical purposes. We do not care to go beyond or behind that record. Al we ask is, Is he sincere? Is he actually i earnest, in the advocacy of these measures If yea, then he is orthodox. It is his priv lege, us a Republican, to think otherwiso r ho pleases; and it is part of the Kepnblica A Lintsfr CstrlusUy. Tbs following is on* of the most remarkable composition* tr* have over mot with. It evlo*M an iogenaftty peculiarly it# own. The initial capital letters *pell "My Boust is tho Glorious Caoso of Chrtot” The words in italic, when read ou tho left sido from top to bottom, aud on the right sido side from bottom to top, form tho Lord’s Prayer complete: Make known Uio gospel truth our Father King ; Yield iiy thy grace, dear Father, from above : Ires us with hoarts «MMoA feelingly oau sin*, “ Our Ufs thou art for ever, Oort of Love.” Arauag® our grief in lora/or Christ, we pray.

Htuyeudoua (iod 1 thy grace and power make known; In Jesus' name let aU the world rejoice, creed not to conform his sido issues and out- sido thinking to the square and rule ol a stiff and stereotyped orthodoxy! lVoco within the Republican ranks is de sirable for many reasons. First of nil, it must precede the consummation of reconstruction; because the Republican party is tfce only po litical party interested in the success of recon struction. The “Democratic” party, or rather its insane leaders, are interested iu tlu- defeat of Reconstruction. Therefore, as the conser vator of the Peace, ami tho advocate of Law aud order, tho Republican party in Georgia should not cherish internal dissensions. The Republican party is tho ouly party predicated upon great National issues, and hence the only really National party. Therefore, as the representative of the National Administration, and hence tho nucleus of loyalty ami order in Georgia, it should present an unbroken front. If the above propositions be true, then, in de fault of the unity and harmony of the Republi can paity in Georgia, will conic only positivo Military Rule, because force alone is adequate to preserve order when anarchist* are in cluiicv.

HIL1T1CAL. lUOINlV T1IK OF Al Richmond, Keptoinlier 29.—'Tho following s tho correspondence on tho Senatorial ques tion: Head quart’* Fiuht Militaby District, Richmond, Va., Sept. 24, 1869. Uonoralilc Secretary of IFiir, Washington 1). Sir -Tho question of electing Senators tho Congress of the United States by tho Leg islature, which will assembles on tho 5lh proximo, is onoof great present interest tho Stato, and many applications have been made for a decision* upon that point. ^ The subject appears to bo so freo from difficulty that I have not hesitated to express tho opin ion that tho olection of Senators wi thorizod and necessary to com plot reconstruction, and was prescribed by the Jaw of July 25tb, 1860; but that it was uot proper for mo to make a decision upon a question that addressed itself so directly to the dis cretion of the Legislature after it was organ ized. There are many, however, who are of the opinion thut this action is in some tained by the opinion of tho Attorney Gen eral of August 28th, 1869, and I have tl honor to request that tho question whetli tho Legislature of this State is authorized to elect donator* of tho United States nt the ses sion which commences on the 5th of next month may bo submitted to the Attorney G oral for his opinion. Very respectfully, sir, Your obedient servant, Ed. R. S. Candy, l’.v’t Major General U. S. A. Commanding. Attorney General’s Office, September 25, 1869. The Jfesideni: Sin—1 have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of this date referring to me for my opinion a letter addressed to the Secretary of War by General Canby, dated September 24th, 1809, which asks whether the Legislature of tho State of Virginia is author ized to elect Senators of the United States at tho session which commences on the fifth of next month, and desires that that question may be submitted to tho Attorney General for his opinion, The general viewH which I entertain of tho functions of tho Legislature of Virginia, elected in pursuance of the act of Congress of April loth, 1869, have been alroady fully indi cated in an opinion transmitted to the Secre tary of War, under date of August 28th, 1869. 1 came to the conclusion that the members of tho Iiegislatr.ro were not reqnited to take tho oath referred to in section nino of the statute of July 19, 1867, in order to qualify them to act as such members. That it was com petent under the law for the Legislate meet, organize and do whatever was required or allowed by the acts of Congress ns prelimi nary to tho reconstruction of tho State, bul that it was not competent for them to under take to enact laws or otherwise to assume any of tho functions of the Government of the State, if organized without taking tho oath referred to, or if any of its members did not or could not take tbo oath. Upou a careful consideration, I am now of opinion that tho election of Senate rs, like voting upon the llth and 15th / raendmenls to the Constitution of the United States, in part oft lie action contemplated by Congrs as preliminary to a restoration of tho State to its full relation to tho Government of tho Unitnd States as one of tho States of the Union. Tho Senators thus elected would hav uo power or authority until the Senate of the United States should have passed up the validity of their elation and admitted tin as members of that body. Under the act of April 10th, I860, 1 election of members of the House of Rep resentatives was permitted, and bas t^cn place, and when Congress comes to act upon the wholo question of tho reconstruction of tlm Stale, it would seem equally proper that members elected to both brunches of the Na tional Legislature should present themselves and bo ready for admissiou to spectivo Houses. The election of Seuutors does not seem to mo to transcend tho action which comes within tho limited and qualified purposes requisite to reconstruction, rather to be essential to tbo com pie ten < tbat action, and I think that the military com mander should not interfere with or prevent it. Very rospectfiilly. E.R. Hoar, Attorney General. Soittlin-n Politic*. We have an earnest word for tho Adminis tration with reference to tho Military Com manders and civil aspirants who are continu ally boring tho White House and tho Depart ments, insisting that tho President nua h it w'as virtually oonetraiaMl to favor Stokes after he wo* deader than jay door nail ever can be; and the net result of that folly i* the loss of Teuneasee’s voU on the main quaation.

If Davis shall be elected, very well; hut if the Administration is made to remove and appoint Federal officer* in his behalf, and thns exasperate the Hamilton party so that e ^ood port of it shall bo sot against tho XVth iinendmout, and if that por.y shall trimph, maugre nil tho efforts made at Washington to defeat it (which ure just os likely to help as to harm) and tho vote of Texas for the Amend ment shall thus ho lost, why thou wo shall protest against the impolicy that finds favor in high plnooH as little short of idiotic. We repeat that tho decisive triumphs of tho Administration, if triumph it shall, must be tho ratification of tho XVth Amendment and tho funding at low interest of the National Debt. Whoever favors tho XVth Auiondmout virtual supporter of Geu. Grant, aud, without suspicious scrutiny of his motive, should ho woloomed and treated ns such. A Government cannot afford to narrow tho plat form on which it stands, nor to count uo ono its friend w ho does not lovo it for itself alone.

WALLACE & FOWLER, Ileal Estate Agents, Biuk Block, Alabama st. coutests in luvor of what aro turmoil the regu lar Republican tickets. We beg tbat wliut wc say shall at least be thoughtfully considered. Wo have always understood, blit stand ready to bo corrected by the President if in error, that a good General keeps his eye on tlio key of tLo position, determined to l>e successful there, though nt the cost of temporary rever ses at points of no strategic consequence.— Such scorns to us the dictate, if not ot Military rule, at all cveuts of couimou senso. Now the key of the position in our present [strugglo is tho XVth Amendment. If we carry that, fixing forever in tho Constitution the principle thut the rights of all citizens, Iwbether Civil or Political, are equul in the oyo of tho law, we shall havo triumphed, no Chief .Justice Brown has returned to the city after an absenco of several day*, looking remarkably well. Col. J. W. Lowis, U. 8. A., lias also returu- to his post from a tour through tho Northern Htates. Wo welcome both gentlemen back. Goldwin Smith will return to England dur ing the fall. matter who may bo temporarily Governor of Virginia or of Texas. Let History record that, under General Grant’s Administration, tho XVth Amendment was ratified nnd the Na tional Debt, being in process of rapid reduc tion, was landed in un Americau Consol at a low rate of interest, and that Administration cannot lie written down a failure. On tho contrary, its wisdom will bo vindicated and its praises resound through coming genera tions. If, on tho other hand, wo lose the XVth Amendment, wo aro thrown back upon the old, senseless, bootless, out-of-date strag gle about “White Man’s Government,” and all tho antediluvian jargon that should have been hushed with tho hoarse bellowing of tho Rebel cannon. Wo shall imitate the idola trous and stiff-necked Israelites who, after coming iu plain sight of tlio Promised Land, turned their hacks on it, aud wandered forty years iu tho stony wilderness. Wo think the Dutchman was substantially right in regarding a* fish all that came to his net. If a Legislature of Texas composed en tirely ot Rebel* would ratify the XVth Amend ment, wo should mako haste to recognize it ami do whatever wo* necessary to seeuro that ratification. Mr. Sumner, we infer from his last speech, would do nothing until they had solemnly, declared that they repented of taking part in tho Rebellion. This may ho statesmanship: it strikes us as tho obstinate tolly of a martinet of a child. Ratifying tho XVth Amendment is tho very evidetico of loyally we require, worth any quantity of barren professions. The votes of Neverul State* aro still needed tor tho pondiog Amoiidmont; wo have stood by and seen that of Tennessee thrown away, and will keep i ilonco no longer. It was en tirely practicable to havo saved thut 8tato, evon alter tho iusano quarrel which rent tbo Republican party; had tho Administration beon allowed to exert it* influence and power to tbat end, it might have secured a pledge from the Jtcbeis enfranchised by Bcutcr that they would ratify tho XVth Amendment.
