TUESDAY MORNING, April 23.
Opening of the Coosa River
We received the following note from
Col. J. H. Daughdrill, of Moblie, who
was in Rome yesterday, in regard to
the important enterprise of openin
the Coosa river, from Greensport to
Wetumpka. We have no doubt hut
that Rome will cordially co-operate in
this good work, and do all she may be
able, in her present impoverished con
dition, to secure its success:
Mr: Editor : I have called the at
tention of several of your city officials
to this matter, and have suggested
that Rome send a competent engineer,
to co-operate with the one to be ap
pointed by the Governor of Alabama
The expense would only be about the
pay far about two months. Rome
wants a report for the Georgia Legisla
ture; sho is more interested, because
she would be more benefitted than any
other place along tne whole line, from
Rome to the Gulf. This course will add
strength to the report, and I think en
sure success to the completion of the
work. Respectfully, <fcc.

Preaching to Colored People.
Mr. A. W. Caldwell, of this place, for
several weeks past has been preaching
to the negroes at Rome, Cave Spring,
and perhaps some other places. The
impression has gone out that the effec
of his preaching has been to array, to
sotne extent, the colored people against
the whites. Row, if this has been the
effect, we must believe that it has be
come so, contrary to the wish and ex
pectation of -Mr. Caldwell. lie has
lived in Rome some 10, or 12 years,
and has always been a quiet, peaceable,
law-abiding, and, in every respect, good
citizen; and, we firmly believe that if
the tendency of his preaching is to dis j
turb the peace of the community, by
arraying one class against the other, he
will abandon it as soon as the facts are
properly presented to him. At all
events, there should be no disturbance
of worshipping assemblies, by unau
thorized individuals, in a disorderly
manner, disputing the statements of a
preacher while he is addressing his con
gregation.
If, at any time, any one should be
guilty of preaching incendiary doc
trines, tending to disturb the peace
and good order of society, there are
lawful means by which the community
may protect itself, and we have no
doubt but that the military authorities
would not only sanction this course,
but would cordially co-operate, if nec
essary, with the civil authorities. The
masters. Agitators like Mr. Hunnicutt
in Virginia may mean well—but their
zeal is bitter and offensive. To organ
ize a campaign, on the Hunnicutt plan
is to abandon any hope of a permanent
Union party in the South. We cannot
afford to array the white against the
black, or the black against the white/

SST’The Cuthbert Appeal regrets to
learn that Capt. Lord and his com
mand have been ordered to Rome. It
say3 the Captain and Lieut. Campbell
have won the regard and respect of the
entire community by their uniform
courtesy and gentlemanly deportment.
In their hands military rule has existed
but in name; its rigors are unknown
to us.
Rome District Convention of the M.

This meeting will assemble in Rome
at 10J A. M., Friday, May 3d. The Su
perintendents of the State Road and of
the Rome Road have kindly consented

turn. An extra train for the accom
modation of the delegates, will leave

above remarks have been suggested by 1 ^ ^ Skeibly,
a report that Mr. Caldwell was dis- ^ ^ McClendon,
Daniel Boland,
a report that Mr. Caldwell was dis
turbed, while preaching to the colored
people, at Cave Spring last Saturday
night, by a young man, disputing in
an unbecoming and indecorous manner
some statement of the preacher.
We have seen four or five of the best
citizens of that neighborhood since the
transaction above alluded to, and they
all condemn the conduct of the young
man who produced the disturbance.
All disturbers of worshipping assem
blies in this community, we have no
doubt will be dealt with according to
law in such cases made and provided.
Tile Garrison at Rome.
The garrison at this place is com
posed of two companies—the second
having arrived last Sunday morning.—
The commissioned officers, at present
on duty here, are Brevet Lt. Col. John
Ritter, in command of the post; Cant.
C. MeC.Lord, 2d Lt. Hellenus Dodt.
and 2d Lt. LaFayette E. Campbell.
The officers all seem to be gentlemen
of refinement and intelligence, and
they have made a favorable impression
upon the community. While Col.
Ritter expects to execute the orders he
receives, unhesitatingly and fully, he
will yet impose no unnecessary hard
ships upen the citizens, and will en
deavor to preserve rigid discipline
among the troops. Since it has been
determined to establish a Military Post
at Rome, we congratulate the commu
nity upon their good fortune in having
a garrison of men that have hitherto
born a good reputation, and command
ed by officers so meritorious.
Floyd Superior Court
This court met yesterday, the 22d
inst—Hon. J. W. H. Underwood on
the Bench. The local Bar were all
p r esent, and the Solicitor J. W. Blance.
We saw no lawyers from a distance, ex
cept W. T. Trammell, now of Griffin.—
The Grand Jury recommended that, in
consideration of the very busy planting
time, all the litigated cases he post
poned, and as scon as the criminal
docket could be got through with, that
the court adjourn to next regular term
in course. It was finally concluded to
postpone even the criminal cases, and
merely those cases involving no litiga
tion are being taken up. It was ex
pected that Court would adjourn last
night.

The following platform of principles
was adopted by the State Convention
Nashvile on the 16th inst:
We the Conservatives Union men of
Tennessee adept the following platform
of principles;
1st. Wears in favor of the Union
of the States, under the Constitution
of the United States. [Cheers.]
2d. We are the friendsof peace and
civil law, and that these' great objeets
can be best promoted by legislation
recognizing equal and exact justice to
all—exclusive privileges to none.
[Cheers. |
3d. We are in favor of immediate
restoration of our disfranchised fellow
citizens to all rights, privileges and im
munities of full and complete citizen
ship. [Cheers. |
4th. That our colored fellow-citi
zens, being now citizens of the United
States and citizens of the State of Ten
nessee and voters of this State, are en
titled to all the rights and privileges cf
citizens under the laws and Constitu
tion of the United States and of the
Statae of Tennessee. [Cheers.]
5th. We are opposed to the repu
diation of the National debt, and are
in favor of equal taxation as the proper
method or paying the same. [Cheeis.]
6th. That the astablishment of a
standing army in our State, in time of
peace, is a .flagrant and dangerous
encroachment upon the rights and
liberties of the citizen, heavily oppres
sive to the tax payer, and evidently
designed to overawe voters at the bai-
lot box. [Cheers.]
7th. We cordially approve of the
patriotic efforts of Andrew Johnson,
President of the United States, in de
fending the Constitution, preserving
the Union of the States, and maintain
ing tne supremacy of the laws.-
[Caeers.]
On motion of Mr. Cooper, the plat
form of principles was put to the vote
of the convention, and adopted amid
an exhibition of enthusiasm such as
hashever before been witnesed winthin
the walls of our capital.

Sensible tetter from a Freedman
The Richmond Dispatch publishes
the following sensible letter from one
of the most respectable freedmen in
the City of Richmond :
To ike Richmond Dispatch:
Messrs. Editors.—Will you be so
kindas to allow me to speak a few words
through your paper about our condi
tion, present and future?
Being myself a freedtnan, I can
speak from self-experience that we can
live here better without the aid of any
such men as Hunnicutt & Co., for if
they could support us after he has led
us astray, jmd give us all we need, then
it would be well for to go with him to
the ballot-box and cast our votes for
him and his men. But, brother freed
men, I hope that we are not blind to
our interests. We have got to iive in
the South with this very people that he
is trying to make us turn our backs up
on—the only friends we have to de
pend upon—for the times and crisis
call for the truest men your State can
afford—men who will labor hard and
honest to bring [about an early peace
between the two races. And wheic can
the men be round ? No where else but
right in your own State. Let us look
to ourselves, that we lose not the thing
we have by allowing our friends from
the other side of the lines to tell us
here to go where they are not will lor
us to be, in their own State. But I»ay
that we have to live here with the peo-
pel of the South, not in war, as some
have said, but in peace and prosperity.
Then let us arise like men of sound
judgment and stand by our people.
They won’t hurt us, but they will re
spect us if we respect them. But we
must remember that ‘

given to the ‘‘former owner” in the law

dentures made within the past two
years, of minors who were capable of
self support.
2. The attention of Magistrates is
called to the repeal by the last Legis
lature, of the “Vagrant Law,” approved
December 15, 1865, and publ shed with
the Code. Attempts which are still
made to put it into execution will here

of legal punishment, being found to
involve! serious abuses, will be hence
forth discontinued, except in connec

Singular Fact.—-One singular fact,
says Young’s History of the War, in
connection with the death of Mr. Lin
coln is, that no coroner’s inquest was
ever held on his body; no legal evidence
taken as to the manner of his death
nor was a single person accused of con
nection with it,' ever brought into a
court of law; nor is there to this - day
any legal testimony whatever as to the
manner of his death, the cause of it, or
who killed him.
Dry Nursing.—It is - estimated that

papers in the South; the bill will foot
up annually two millions of dollars.—
Pretty strong inducement that, for
slack-fisted Southern editors to turn

Coffee Plantations.—It is stated
that a company with §3,000.000 is pro
posing to organize a coffee plantation
in Florida. There are to be ten settle
ments of one thousand each, which are
to come from the North, and also mon
ey. The profits are to be $1,000,000 a
year. Gardens and house rents are to
be free, and at the end of ten years each
family is to have forty acres of land.—
Nothing is said about clothes. The
head men live there.
Fastidious.—The Maine papers are
greatly exercised over the fact that
marble playing has been introduced
amongst the boys of that State. They

passed against the demoralizing mode

FACTS vs. THEORIES..
“Give mo a place to rest my lever on,”
says Archimedes, “and I will move the
world.” Give me pure and unandullerated
drug3,” says Medieus. of the olden time,
“and I will cure aisease.”
In one sense, both ot these learned pan
dits were the veriest charlatans.—They
knew there was no place to rest their lever
on, either to move the world or care disease.
Mechanism was in a backward state, and
the medical profession was out another name
for sorcery, and all the adjuncts of magic
filters and charms of the “evil eye,” &c.
But these latter days have borne unto us
something more than even superstition and
its crew ever dreamed of in their maddest
philosophy. In these days of practical sci
ence, what was theory of yesterday is fact
to-day, and all the old time notions became
as bubbles in the sun, and burst and break
with every breath we draw.
Let Archiifiedes shoulder his lever and
we will find a resting place for it to move
the world. Let mine ancient Medieus pant
and toil no more for the drugs the sorely
needs, for we have them at our hand, ever
ready to serve them at his beck.
Refined in the laboratory of Dr. Maggiel,
the fine.-t materia) known in the medical
profession are obtained by any one. His
bilious, dyspeptic and diarrhea pills stand
nnrivailed, and his salve operates with ma
gical effect upon burns, scalds, and all sores
and ulcers of the skin.
In f*ct, we think Maggiel’s pills and salve
are the wonder of this century, and we are
happy in the thought that many others of
our brethren of the craft agree with us. We
would earnestly counsel that all families
provide themselves with Dr. Maggiel’s pre-
S arations at once, and keep them ready at
and, so as to use them at the most oppor
