David Da- vis, of Illinois, and lion. Joel Parker, of New Jersey, are the names of the standard-liearcrs of this new organiza tion. The nominees arc both men of large wealth, and their sympathy and identity with the labor interests of the ev-ntry np|«cnr to lie of recent origin. Judge Davi was no ni l line Whig, a warm friend of Lincoln, in whose nomination Uc took an active interest, ami was subsequently made by him a Judge of the United States Supreme Court. Gov. Parker is a |ioIitician of prominence in New Jersey, and was elected Governor of that State in 1862, and again last year, by a large majority. Both np]>enr to be men of fair ability, though not the sort of statesmen of which Presidents were wont to be made in other days. There appears to be a desire among certain Democrats for a coalition with this movement. If such a union can he made effective in lieat- ing Grant, and is deeided to lie the best way to beat him, it will lie tho pro|>or policy of the South, to acquiesce, though the Labor-Kcform agitation has in itself very .small claim upon the siip|Mirt or sympathy of the great mass of the people of the South. It is a movement in the interest of labor- unions, for the protection of labor en gaged in the manufacture of goods of which the South is a leading purchaser. The direct result, if not the leading purjiose of the “ labor movement” of the North is, to extort tribute from Southern toil. It is the germ of the agrarian war upon capital, w hose legit imate fruits have been develojied in tho recent struggle with the eominun- importance to North-East Georgia, to tho Georgia Railroad, and to Augusta and Savannah. * If it passe! mto the hands o^'the lessees of the State road, or of. parties hostile to a connection with ns, and with the Georgia railroad sysiteftr, 'it Will be a severe blow to the in terests oftbis-portion of the State. A great feeder to our present railroads will be taken away, and a vast trade will thus be cut off from our comraer- cl il point. - , , The Directors of the Georgia Rail road are about to meet to consider the lease of a portion of their western line to the Pennsylvania Central, and it is rumored that such a lease is likely to lie consummated. If they must give up theur.interest in the connection with Alabama, may they not wisely reach out to control the line penetrating the gnat iron, coal and grain region of upper Georgia and Tennessee ? Will the stoekliolders of the Geor gia road—will tlie merchants of Au gusta, and .Savanuali, see this impor tant link {inss into hands hostile to their interests ?

'COOPER'S of high character and distiaction, fru<n Greenville, 16 miles; Greenville to What Radical Rule Costs the People. In the House of Representatives on Friday Mr. Dawes, Chairman of the Committee on Ways and Means, made a statement to show how the balanec sheet of the Treasury was being con stantly changed hy each day’s legisla tion of Congress. There were certain I appropriations which were absolutely necessary. The public faith to the creditors of the country required a pro vision to be made for the payment of interest on the debt. Then there were public expenditures which, however much they may vary from year to year, must lie met by appropriation bills. He wished to call the attention of the House and the country to what may lie denominated the absolute necessary expenses of the Government for tho coming year. Taking the e.-tiinate of public ex ists of Paris. It is an arm of the great j penditures as a starting point, the am- intcrnational movement which threat-1 ount required without reference to pay- ens to throw all the manufacturing dis tricts of Europe into revolutionary convulsions. It is composed of the elements lntclv most clamorous for the overthrow of Southern slavery, be cause that institution was an etlective conservator of the cver-giinding attri tion between labor and capital, and was (falsely) deemed antagonistic to the interests of free labor. A vast majority of the hordes which overrun the South wore men of communistic affinities. We confess that an alliance with such a 'body, even for the pur pose of beating Grant, does not appear to lie the high mission to which South ern Democrats ought to aspire. But on the principle nf lighting the devil with fire, it may come to pass that the staid, law-loving Democracy of the South may find it wise to throw their strength into the scale with these firery elements. Wc trust it may lie done, if done at all, not hy supporting their ticket, or endorsing their principles;, but by running electoral tickets in the States of the South independent of all national organization, to he voted in the Electoral College for the men and the party mo». frieullyto our inter ests, and the safest custodians of the fragment of constitutional liberty still left. So far as any humble share these culiiniiirmny have in future political contests, there is nothing outside of a square stand up fight, under the Dem ocratic lianncr, for old-fashioned Dem ocratic principles—moulded as they are, and must lie, bv existing facts, which can inspire much enthusiasm. ,.ny other fight, by honest Southern men, is little better than tlie dancing of harlequin* or the mockery of a farce. all parte of the country, will attend this most important practical. conven tion. We look with much iuterestjp the facts that will lie tDvohiped, and hope the newspaper press will qrge the appointment of delegates of high character and practical knowledge, so that the whole country may come mto possession of actual facts, and not be compelled to rely upon mere specula tions and vague theories. Increase of Churches. The Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States reports an actual accession to its communion, last year, of 24,124, being a larger per centage upon its whole number of members (224,995) than any other Church.— The Methodist Episcopal Church re ports an increase of 58,387, and a total membership of 1,172,095. Tlie reunited Presbyterian Church report ed as received on examination, last year, 27,770, and a total of 455,378 members. The Congregationalist had 13,501 added by profession, and a total membership of 306,518. The Presbyterian Church (South) reported (1870) a total membership of 87,529, and additions on profession of 5,302. The regular Baptists report a total membership of 1,410,403, and 77,705 added by baptism, and 15,636 exclud ed and 2,271 erased. There are many subdivision of these denominations, and smaller bodies, whose reports we have not compared. But the above are worthy of study by ministers and others interested in chusch growth. Increase of Herman Immigration. The newly elected Board of Directors of the German Immigration Society of New York met at their office, No. 13 Broadway, on Thursday afternoon, and organized hy the election of the following officers:—President, Frcder- | ick Schack ; Vice President, Rev. Pa- genstccher and Jacob Windinueller; Secretaries, William A. Schraitthen- ner and Carl Rose; Treasurer, Theo. Buck. The Relief Committee expend- appropriated $6,200,000.

A meeting of the corporators of the Macon and Knoxville Railroad Com pany, chartered by act of the Georgia Legislature, approved December lltb, 1871, will be held at Covington, on the 27th instant, for the purpose of organizing the company. All persons interested in thc enterprise are request ed to attend. The corporators from Bibb county are Messrs. Thomas Hard eman, James Jackson, A. L. Maxwell, L. N. Whittle and W. A. Huff. In England and Wales there are 204 railway companies, owning 11,- 043 miles of completed road. Scot land has 35 companies, with 2,519 miles. Ireland has 42 companies, with 1,975 miles. Of the English compan ies 16 own 9,572 miles, leaving to the remaining 188 companies but 1,439 miles; and 5 Scotch companies own 2,468 miles, leaving to the remaining 30 companies but 51 miles; in Ireland, 8 companies own 1,579 miles, the re maining 34 companies owning but 368 miles. Thus 29 companies own more than four-fifths of the railway mileage of the United Kingdom. These facts indicate that railway consolidation is progressing in the fast-anchored isles fully as fast as will be found conven ient Jay Gould has been superoeeded as President of the Erie Railroad, by Gen.
