Extension of Time.
The General Order published this morn
ing, from the Commanding General of the
District, should not be overlooked by the
registered voters of the State. It gives
two days more time to secure a full expres
sion of the people of Georgia on the ques
tion of Reconstruction.
This invitation from the authorities to
the people of the State will not. we hope,
be disregarded. To refuse to vote after
regi-toring would amount to a half-way
suicide, politically. Those who were com-

Election Returns.
" Savannah, Oct. 30.—The election passed
off quietly. The total vote, so far as heard
from, is 2.500; only one white vote to-day,
making two whites.. The negroes have it
all their own way. The whites do not go
near the poll*, and regard the whole thing
as a farce. A new poll will be opened to
morrow for the whites. Nearly all of the
voti * east is for the negro Radical ticket.

tlT We publish this morning the “hand
bill purporting to be an address ‘to the vo
ter- of Georgia.'” to which our fossil eo-
temj*oniry. on Whitehall, alluded Tuesday
morning last. It has just fallen into our
hands—we have read it hastily—and we
nm*t admit that we fall to discover the
"fc Radicalism" our friend of the In
telligencer deprecates. We advise our
readers to read it, and read it to their
neighbors.early this morning; and then
let all follow the advice given—vote, and
then work until everybody else votes. The
advantages of a large vote are distinctly
set forth in the document to which we re
fer. and we hope everybody who has not
voted will vote before the sun sets.
C3T"A correspondent of the Cincinnati
Commercial questions the statement so
generally published, to the effect that “af-
t. r the 2d of March, 186S. no debtor will be
a *le to obr.-.ln * discharge in bankruptcy
unless hi* assets shall pay fifty per cent, of
bis indebtedness, or by assent in writingof
i majority in number and value of his
•will on _
retard the
progress of Reconstruction. A majority
of the registered voters will carry the com
monwealth back into the Union. This is
inevitable, and those who ipdulgein pique
and prejudice now, will hereafter regret
the decision.
At the same time we urge the friends of
Reconstruction to be vigilant! A few
days earnest work will save years of anar
chy in the future. We have but one hope
for relief from the present unsettled con
dition, and that is based upon restoration
to, and participation in, the councils of the
nation. Now is the time to work—let the
necessary work be done!
More Time.
The true friends of Geosgia will thank
Gen. Pope for extending, the time of vo
ting. We urge upon them that they now
show their appreciation of this opportuni
ty, by laboring unceasingly, until the polls
close, to get out every voter who favors
the Reconstruction policy of Congress.
Remember, if a majority of the registered
vote of the State is not polled, and a ma
jority of tlie vote polled does not vote “for
a Convention,” Gcoraia will be the first of
her Southern sisters to pursue such a
course. Remember that our present un
settled political condition is the principal
cause of our prostrate condition financially.
Georgia should be in the front rank, polit
ically and commercially’. That is her place
as tlie Empire State. There is time enough
to accomplish tlie work. Let it be done.
“ Sharp ” is the word, and be who dallies
now, while professing so loudly, ought
never receive the confidence of his fellow-
citizens. Those who have registered should
vote, ONE AND ALL !
The Whole Ticket,
Let no one who claims to be for Recon
struction vote other than tlie Staight-out
Ticket. '
Beware of tricksters I
Vote the Ticket as if .is, and be sure that
on your ticket are theAvords "For A Con
vention.’’

Why this Difference?—A few days
ago we received from New York by way of
Savannah a box weighing 1301bs. on which
freight and drayage to our office was 4.00.
Yesterday we received from Savannah one
bundle of wrapping paper, weighing 601bs.
on which the charges, delivered in our of
fice was ¥2.25. If our box had been sliip-
I>ed from Savannah, at this proportion, the

At a meeting of the Board of Health,

A motion was offered by Dr. Warren
Stone that the fever be declared no longer

The motion was opposed and referred to
the Committe on Health.
Dr. Stone argued that the disease had
rnn its course and was no longer epidemic.
Though sporadic eases may continue for
some time, in his opinion it is perfectly
safe for strangers to come to this city. In
his remarks lie contended that the yellow
fever was not contagious under any cir

Mayor Ilcath lias vetoed the ordinance
repealing all ordinances providing for tlie
administration of the public schools, on
the ground that tlie Council makes no pro

teachers. The action of the Council looks
like they intended to abolish tlie schools
altogether, since it has failed to force ne
groes into white schools. The ordinance
was passed over the Mayor’s veto by’ tlie
Board of Assistant Aldermen. The upper
Board lias not yet acted.
Judge Leinonr, of the sixth District
Court, ha* decided to perpetuate the in
