Bend in yonr “ads” be fore all the speoe it taken. A. K. Calnouv, Proprietor. It is now nettled by the concur- fence of the Poet matter General and the committee to whom the subject wae re ferred, that when the new newepeper law goea into effect, on the firat of January 1875, that instead of placing stamps on the separate periodicals or papers, or on tha package containing them,according to weight, the forms aa already printed ahow the current acconat with the publishers, and after the printed matter is weighed, the requisite amount of stamps is pasted on the form of reoeipt given to the pub Usher ot his agent at the time of mailing, the credit and receipt having correspond ing numbers. The Washington reporters insist that tha President still sticks to Mnllett. They aey that Secretary Bristow hsd made np hie mind that under no contingency would he be permitted to remain, but shortly after the reoeut difficulty he wes induced to so modify his determination as to per mit Mnllett to remain till his successor should be appointed. His modification is understood to have been reached through the direct influence of the President, His successor has not been appointed,and there is reason to believe that the appoint ment will be delayed, on one pretext or another, to suit Mr. Mn!lett*s conven ience. Hom. A. H. Stephens has written a let ter to the Mobile JUgister, to correct that paper in its strictures upon a former let ter of bis. In his letter to the Register, Mr. Stephens contends that Judge Durell had, nnder the Reconstruction acts, juris diction to decide who wes the Governor of Louisiana, but says that those ante gave him no jurisdiction to decide who were members of. the Legislature. He adds that he (Mr. Stephens) duos not admit the constitutionality of the Recon struction acts. Yet he defends General Grant, who reoommended and signed the Enforcement act, and who sustained Durell in a course which Mr. Stepheus now admits to have been a usurpation in part! ^ The Savannah papers report the results of the big sale of damaged ootton from the steamship Ht. Louis, on Tuesday. The total number of balsa sold was 2,557, and tha aggregate proceeds were $92,258.50. A balance of about 900 bales was with drawn. The sale was mado in lots. Where a lot of one classification contain ed only 50 bales or less, it was all sold at once; when the lot contained over 50 balea, the sale was of 50 bales with the privilege of the lot. The News says: “The attendance was large. Bid ders being present from the interior of the State, Now Orleans, and many of the eastern etties, and the competition was so eager and spirited that but few Southern buyers had a chance to come in at figures which they considered profitable, only about 400 balea beiog taken by them. The larger portion was bought by North ern men." More PsurpotloM. Accounts from Washington say that “the President has informed several of the Republican Senators, who hate called on him, that he has resolved in bis annual message to appeal to Congress to sottle, now and forever, the status of the State governments of Arkansas and Louisiana." This is repeated so often and so posi tively that we are compelled to regard it aa an authoritative announcement. Bull Col. Wilkins should know tbit. rORE 141S LABOR ANR CAPITAL By foreign we do not mean 'alien, but foreign in ceElradisti action to domestic, terms ire used in this country. Every man you meet efltdljiRtbis oountry needs foreign capital, but there is a duas of men, in numbers stdRfcieUi'to noiiee, who most decidedly oppofte emi gration, and who imagine this country is none too large for themselves*. This elaaa, though on the surface, is neither the working nor the deep thinking clam of the Sonth, for if they were eitherthey would eee that no atraeger would send has money here in any quantity and then atay away himself, for fear of bnrting the feelings of men who live in the peat and keep open their heart sores by dwelling on the time when they could live without labor. Wq claim to be the friend of our adopted home, but we see no adequate inducement for hiding the fact that there exists here io the hearts of idle women, and the hearts of thriftless, worthless men, a hatred, deep and unhidden, of everything that does not chord with their own lew standard of civilization, and particularly of every thing “Yankee," as they term Northern people and Northarn products. We havs the names and conversation of thirty-sev en man and woman, claiming to be res pectable, who in the last four months have ottered the most false and hellish tirades against Northern people. Still these persons do not represent our people —they only represent their own poor, unpatriotic and gradually diminishing class. A class too falsely vain to work, and too wretchedly poor to get credit; sod it is these people who have brought all the misery on the 6outb, and who are looked upon by unthinking strangers as proper types of Houthern manhood and woman hood. The truth is, the heroes of the South are working to win, with brave hearts and uncomplaining lips, and the majority of (Southern women, scorn ing the idle drones and vicious gossips, are usiag every influence to supplement the exertions of their husbands, fathers and brothers. We can tell the sentiments of Houthern men or women pretty well by the condition of their obli gations, and the extent of their credit. Bat here is why we speak, and we desire those who read the Encjuibkb in the North to notice this point particularly: The night before last a meeting of the colored friends of John Mcllhenny, K«q., was called at the store of Holstead & Go. Mr. Mclibeony was raised iu Philadelphia,#!^ learned his business there. Everybody iu this section knows he is running against Col. Wilkins, who was raised in Columbus. Nine-tenths of the working colored mon aide with Mr. Mcllhenny, and at the meeting referred to they so expressed themselves, and the sentiment of the oolored people is undoubtedly that of the whites. During the meeting on the occasion referred to, several of the Wilkins negroes insisted on speaking, and though the demand was made with the purpose of breaking up the meeting, the oolored men were Allowed to talk. One of them is known as “the natural something, we have forgotten what, but he ahowed he deserved tbo name. The other introduced himself as “Mr. Adam, who came to express the aentiinonls of Col. Wilkins for Mayor." Mr. Adam—a colored man, remember— got np on a stool, and as the mouthpiece and friend of Col. Wilkins, he got off the following racy, Know-Nothing sentiment: “Every man, colored and white, should vote for Frank Wilkins for Mayor, because he was raised here, born among us, and is one of us. We should go for him, and for our own natives, against all pome ion kbs ami Northern men," Ao. Ac. Ac. We trust there were no strangers to hear the remark# of thia poor illiterate mouthpiece of sentiments that should be dead. This eouotry needs foreigners and Northern men, despite the wild assertions of the chauipioui of our would-be Mayor. Georgia has not all the virtue, wealth or courage of the world, and the friends of Look at it would be a novel way to seltla contests about State Governments in this country. Our complicated form of government certainly contemplated that the people of each Ktato should elect their Governors and legislators, and that in case of con- teats Involving questions of fact or law, the ooorts of the States should have ex clusive jurisdiction. Iu the oaeo* of both Arkansas and Louisiana, the people of those States have recently settled the questions as t > thoir State Governments, by unmistakable verdicts. Congress would not interfere as long as thero wan any pretext for doubt as to the will of the people. But now, when the people have spoken, it is proposed that Congress shall interfere and take jurisdiction. The pro position ia oue of usurpation aud revolu tion. It ia a virtual assumption that the people of the States have no rights which the Federal Congress is bound to respect. —A man known as Tom Adams, who for some years kept a low dance bouse at Mszatlan, Mexico, was reoently shot by another desperado, and before his death confound to the Auuericau commercial agent at that port that he had been guilty of no less than fonttoen murders, all but one of which were committed iu the United States and Cauada. His proper name, he said, was George Worley. He wa« born iu Manchester, England, aud cotumeuced his career of crime by mur dering the second mato of the American ship Cul tivator, iu the Liverpool dooks, about the year 1854. After this he went to Canada,* aud under various names pur sued a career of crime. For burglary committed at Chicago, he aorved three years in the Illiuois State Prison. He said that he weut to Vera Cruz from New Orleans just before the war broke out. He leaves over $10,000 to a sister, who re sides at Sheffield, England. A Horrible Murder. A report of a horrible murder and sui cide has reached Troy, N. Y. A carpen ter named Elias Williams recently befcau tha erection of a frame house iu a forest district in liaiuiltou county, N. Y., and hired George Smith to assist him iu its construction. A few days since they got drunk and quarrelled, when Williams threw Smith upon a wood saw horse and held him there until he sawed his head off with a handsaw. When conscious of what be had done, Williams committed suicide by cutting his own throat. A \>oy named Grant, who saw the tragedy, car ried the newt to the neareet neighbors, two miles distant, and they buried the bodies of the men. our faotorios! Clapp is from the North, aud he is the father of the Columbus Mills. Swift ia froili the North, and no man has done more to develop our faotoriea. Young is from the North, aud the Eagle and Phenix Mills are monu ments of his energy. Our banks, with one exception, Col. Salisbury, and there lives no better or more generous man, are controlled by men, not blessed by being born near the Chattahoochee. Mr. Epping is a German, Mr. Browno is a Northern man. . Our most successful merchants are foreigners and our most prosperous me chanics were l>orn in other lands or othor States. Let the intelligent roader ait calmly down and call over tha Gormans, Irish, other foreigners and Northern men, and then imagine them out of this town, and what would it be ? A wilderness of ruin ed houses filled with pauper whiten, aud its streets paved with starving negroes. Yet this negro representative of Columbnn Know-Nothingiam raises his voice at the Lidding of bis political masters to cry down men who come from other States. It ia, indeed, remarkable if the black man who yesterday took the adventurous car. pet-baggor to his heart, should to-day wed the fast dying theories of nieu who live only in the dead and bitter paid, and cry out agaiust foreigners. We cannot help feeling that “Adam" has sounded the key uote of the munici pal contest, and our experience, and a hard experience it is, tells us he has. It is uot a struggle between frieuds and traduoers any longer; it is a fight foi the future of Columbus. From the Pith of thia month, she will either advance or go back, and hor course will depend on the election. This bitter animosity must be forever killed out, and its death or life is in the hands of the people. For our selves, we wish to make this our perma nent home ; still, the vote that rebukes the stranger who came here to make this his abiding place, will prepare us for aeeking auother habitation at any saeri- fioe. But, while we remain, our voioe will be raised in no ambiguous tones against the traduoers of strangera.and the foes of a city that retard her progress, as barnacles atay the passage of a becalmed ahip, while the wind to waft her on is tdowiug just beyond. The farmers of this country are true to themselves. How about the people of this oily ? Ossrfls Celered Ceaveatlea. The fifty or sixty delegates to the con vention of diflaHRM Regroce at Atlan ta, continued m eeasioa Tuesday and WedMiiay. There wae much difference of optaion among them Aa to the proper oosneio pursue, Bfft there does not appear hi have hum nay dissent from the proposition made and repeated by several of the speakers, that the cerpet-beggers had deaaived the negroes and censed them great injury. K. H. Carter, of Fulton, said: “All that we have ttailed have de ceived us. Carpet-baggers do all for themselves, and they will follow you wherever you go. They have caused us and the whites to distrust one another. No man can dodge the fact. Carpet-baggers deceived as, they came for office end got it over our backs, then sold us out." [Car ter should have added that the negroes have not yet trusted the Democrats, or been deoeived by them.^ W. P. Butler, of Cobb, saw thia point.* He said: “The carpet-baggers ruined us. Now let us lay our complaints before the home peo ple. The only way to bnikl up is to unite. Let the past be past, and look forward for better days. If they don't come, then emigrate to another country." There was great complaint about not being put on jurien, not having firat’class cars on the railroads, Ac. The disposi tion to emigrate seemed to be the pre dominant one, but io our reading of the speeches aa reported, we have not found that any speaker declared his fixed resolu tion to move. As we have already mentioned, Mr. John H. James being invited to address the Convention, made some sensible re marks, advising these negroes to “accept tha situation" and go to work, whereby they would do more for themselves and their race than by all their senseless po litical agitation over so-called wrongs which no legislation could remedy. On Wednesday, Governor Smith being in vited, also addressed the Convention. He advised them that no convention coald do oide whether R was heat for any man to move to any locality—that a question which each man must decide for himself. If they should all leave the State, the natural advantages of Georgia were such that white immigrants from Europe would soon take their places and do their work. He saw in the Convention one man who persuaded many negroes to emigrate to Mississippi in 1850, but he did not go himself, and he wonld not go now, though he was playing the same role. Many of the colored people from Houston county, who went West a few years ago, bad walked back, because they had no money to pay their passage. The Governor gave them good advice: “Make these leaders go with you. If they won’t go, then don’t you go." John A. Wimpy, white Uadieal, also addressed tha meeting, and had many complaints of outrages to make and tnauy arts of the demagogue to practice. Resolutions were adopted denouncing the Grangers for reducing the price of agricultural labor; complaining of unjnst discriminations ou public conveyances, at inns, in the distribution of the school fund, Ao.; appealing to tha Legislature for a redress of them grievances, and threatening to leave the State unless they were redressed. A letter from H. M. Turner was read, in which he dealared that he despaired of the negro race, unless they went back to Africa. While the others are turning their eyes to the west, Turner looks to the east for deliverance. The committee on “outrages" in Geor gia reported on Wednesday evening, and as the presentation of a budget of this kind was of course the prime object of the Convention—the threat to go West being an accompanying demonstration to back the pretenoe of outrages—the report was no doubt anxiously expected. The committee reported only two definitely. One of these was in Fayette county, where “a party" made a negro swear falsely, and then prosecuted him for perjury; and the other was in Wash ington county, where tho elect on managers required the negrooi to show their tax receipts before voting! and where, also, a white man whipped a colored man’s wife, and be cause the oolored man fought him he was put in jail, and afterwards taken out and whipped by white men. Dr. Baldwin, oolored, said that the report of tho com mittee was next to nothing, and the Con vention shonld not receive it. It was then referred back to the committee. Resolutions were adopted, urging tho outrage hunters to continue their hunt, so as to report to Cpngress; also, raising a Committee on Emigration, ono member of which should ba elected by the people of each of the cities of Atlanta, Savannah, Columbus, Macon and Augusta, with head quarters at Atlanta. Tho Convention adjourned from Wod nesday to Thursday. Alabama Lcflalatart. Wednesday, 2d.—In the Senate, Mr. HarrU, of KaaaeH, introduced a joint resolution to make amendments to the Constitution. It was ordered to a second reading. The following new bills were referred: By Mr. Tomlinson, for the pro tection of agricultural laborers; by Mr. Glass, to prohibit the sale of liquors at Society Hill; by Mr. Black, to abolish the City Court of Eufaula; by Mr. Cun ningham, to regulate the registering and reviewiag of all claimn other than State obligations; by Mr. Terrell, to repeal the act to protect the planters of the State from impositions in the sale of fertilizers; by Mr. Haralson, to create a lien in favor of employers of agricultural laborers. The Judiciary Committee reported substitute for the bill to reg- ulate the trial of causae io the Chancery Courts. Substitute adopted, and bill passed ; also, a substi tute for the bill to prevent the wrongful disposal of agricultural produce (forbid ding sales between the hours of sunset and sunrise)—mado special order for to morrow. The special order, being the bill repealing the personal recognizance act, was taken np. The amendment mak ing the stealing of property valued at $25 grand larceny, was adopted. The bill was finally passed, after efforts by the Uepnb- licanH to postpone, lay oo the table, Ac. In the House, Daniels, of Russell, of fered a protest against the resolutions in structing our Senator end Representa tives in Congress to vote against the Civil Rights hill. A number of new bills were introduced on tho call of the oountiea. The following were among those refer red: By Mr. Herman, a resolution in structing the Judiciary Committee to pre pare a bill providing for the the abolition of grand juries, as provided for in the constitution; Mr. Leslie, to exempt the operatives in cotton factories, living in Browneville beat, Lee county, from work ing roads on payment of a per capita tax; Gaskin, to protect passengers traveling in public conveyances; Mr. Betts, to pro hibit the corrupt use of county funds by Commissioners (prohibiting their making contracts with members of tho court, Ac.); to enable married women to mort- g tge their separate statutory estates ; to suable overseers of roads to keep the roads in repair; for tho prevention of fraud under contracts for labor ; Mr. Wood, defining the rights of wives of laborers in certain specified cases; Mr. Price, to repeal the act to protect farmers from imposition in the sale of fertilizers The special order—the report of the com mittee on the Barbour county seats—was discussed, without action, during the greater part of the day. —John Jacob Astor, the wealthy New Yorker, attends to his business in person, xuakiog and collecting loans of great amonuts with the fewest of words.
