TUESDAY HORNING, May 98.
kgrlcultnral Society at Cave Spring.
On last Saturday the planters in the
lower part ofthis county organized a
Society, the proceedings of which may
he found in another column. This is a
good movement, and we have no doubt
will be largely advantageous to its mem
bers. We learn that some fifteen or
twenty more joined after the meeting
adjourned.
Registration Order.
Wa publish to-day General Order No.
20, by General Pepe, in regard to reg
istration of voters, under tho Military
Bill. It will be discovered that
he puts the most stringent con
struction upon the disfranchising clas
ses, so far as holding of offices is con
cerned, subject, however, to future in
structions, or adjudication hereafter.
But all whose right to vote is doubtful,
can take the oath, and be enrolled, and
it may be that by some decision, yet
to be mad a, the privilege of voting
may be granted to them.
We are clearly of the opinion that
all who can register, should do so, and
that even those whoso right to vote,
under the law, may be questioned,
should make the application, end take
the oath, and then be in readiness to
enjoy the benefit of some future favor
able order.
Registers Appointed.
In another column of this paper
may be found a list of the Registers for
the Senatorial Districts of the State.
For this District it will be seen that
Wesley Shropshire and W. L. Goodwin
are appointed—with the latter we are
not acquainted, but understand he has
lived in Bartow county for some eight
or ten years. Mr. Shropshire’s popu
larity, in his own county, Chattooga, is
sufficiently attested by the fact that he
has repeatedly been elected to the Leg
islature. We have no doubt he will
laithfully discharge the duties of the
office, and, in every way, be an effi
cient and good officer.
It is the duty of tho two appointees
lor each Senatorial District to nomi
nate some colored man to co-operate
with tnem in the duties of registration.
It is rumored thatJWm. B. Higgin
botham has been recommended as the
colored Register for this District. We
Know of no colored man in the District
more competent for the office, or who
would more satisfactorily discharge the
duties.
We hope all good citizens will aid
these Boards in making full and correct
registration of all who are entitled to
vote under the Military Bill.

Patriotism oi a Regular 8oldter.
an incident.
M x. Editor : On Saturday night last,
during a meeting of a debating club in
our city, a Seargent of Col. Ritter’s
command, now stationed here, present
ed himself at the door of the lyceum
and was immediately invited to a *eat
within, which he accepted
The question for consideration was
the practicability of a Republican form
of Government, over a large extent of
Territory.
Arguments were made, pro and eon,
which elicited from the soldier
the'' most respectful attention,
and which awakened within him an
increasing interest, as was manifested
by his drawing more near to the deba
ters as the discussion progressed. Fi-
ually, a speaker took the floor, and in
a chaste and eloquent speech, set forth
the practicability of a Republican form
of government, and cited ours as an ex
ample of eminent success, notwith
standing the civil conflicts which have
recently swept over it; paralizing, to
some extent, its influence for good. He
contended that the love of Republican
liberty was not yet extinct; and con
fessed that he, as a rebel, had erred in
taking up arms against the Union; and
tl>at his devotion, and this love for
the principles of liberty, which we
once enjoyed under the old flag, would
yet be instrumental in calming the
waves of strife, and that the Star Span
gled Banner would again wave without
a dissenting voice,
“O’er the land of the free and the home
of the brave,’’
and that from the Atlantic to the
Pacific, and from tho frozen regions of
the North to the Sunny shores of the
Gulf, it would again be unfurled as the
protecting emblem of a united, pros
perous and happy people.
On taking his seat, the soldier, with
tears glistening in his eyes, approached
him hurriedly, and grasped him by the
hand, joyously manifesting a disposi
position to forgive the past, and unite
heart and hand ence more, even with
rebels in restoring civil liberty, and in
honoring the flag, which for three quar
ters of a century, was the pride and
boast of evory American citizen.
This incident is an illustration of
the only practicable mode of restoring
the Union.
A noble confession on the one part,
and a noble forgiveness on the other,
would give us not only reunion, but
enduring peace. Estrangements would
give way to better feelings, and mutual
concession would be as oil on the trou
bled waters. Olive Branch.
Suicide of a Bank Defaulter—The Mo
bile Police
Mobile, May 24.—John M. Park-
man, defaulting President of the First
National Bank at Selma, confined in
the Cahawba jail, escaped yesterday,
plunged into the river, and was
drowned.
The Mayor of Mobile has been peti
tioned to appoint half the policemen
negroes.
No Danger or Confiscation.—We are
pleased to receive from the New York
Time* the assurance that no fear could
possibly be more groundless than the
one entertained by the Southern peo
ple that there is danger of the confisca
tion of their property. There ore, says
the Times, “as many people in the
North in tavor of repudiating the na
tional debt ar there are in favor of con
fiscating the estates of Southern prop
erty-holders. And yet the national
credit is as strong as the National
Union.”
jjQp-A tnunificeni donation of school
books has just been made to the Trus
tees of the Peabody Fund, by Messrs.
A. S. Barnes <£ Co., of this city. The
gift consists of five thousand volumes
of the “Teacher’s Library”—a series of
professional works designed for the
self .education of those who in turn may
beeome their teachers—and twenty-five
thousand volumes of “school books for
intermediate classes,” and constitutes a
most valuable contribution to the cause
ol Southern education, and one which,
when coupled with the one hundred
thousand of primary school books re
cently donated by the Messrs. Apple-
ten, must lead the South to see that
New York still has her generous mer
chants, and those who are ready to con
tribute to her best welfare. The value
of this gift of A.S. Barnes k Co., is
about $25,000.
Hon. R. C. Winthrop, Chairman of
the Trustees, expressess the highest ap
preciation of this munificent contribu
tion, and in this sentiment Dr. Sears,
who is well acquainted with the books,
heartily unites. We are glad to note,
too, that the generous deed was just in
time to reach the ears of Mr. Peabody
as he was embarking for Europe. It is
needless to say that it caused him the
liveliest satisfaction.
B@uThe use of tobacco has been pro*

The Tt nth Fitly Told,
The Boston Post, speaking of the
Radical missionaries scent South,
“"The effrontery of these demagogues
in going among a people deprived of
their civil rights and property, held
down by military law, suffering the
pangs of starvation; and taunting them
with their misdeeds, and mocking at
their calamities, b as reprehensible as
anything cowardice could conceive or
party hacks perform. The ready sub
mission of the South to the r* construc
tion laws of Congress surpassed all ex
pectation, ana the work was advancing
throughout the South without hesita
tion. The citizens of different classes
were fast adapting themselves to the
new order of things; the blacks and
whites were fast harmonizing in their
social and civil relation, and the restoa-
tion to good order and fidelity to the
General Governmet was unobstructed.
At such a moment, extreme party men
—not men distinguished for patriotism
or any prominent virtue, public or do
mestic—not men of consitent political
action—not men who had risked any
thing to defend the government when
it was assailed but mere party declaim-
ers and leeches, thrust themselves up
on the south as its dictators, offensive
ly demanding acquiesence in their will,
and threatening proscription, confisca
tion astonishments for non-cooformi-
•y-
What but resistance and violence
could result from such proceedings
among civilized people with one drop
of American bloon in their veins?
And was not this the aim at the start,
to sting to violent deeds, and then
summon these deeds as evidence of the
necessity of continued subjugation, the
postponement of the peace of the
country and so the restoration of the
Union? We believe such persons as
Kelley and his Radical associates are
devilishenough for any such design,
and reckless enough to attempt its
success.
If the American people are so farin love
with such apostles as to sustain them
at the expense of the burdens they im
pose upon the nation, civilly and pe
cuniarily, then we may as well all “cry
havoc, and let slip the dogs of war.”—
Strife and taxes, arbitrary government,
and the subversion of every principle of
tru republicanism, will be the cost of
thr contest.
Surratt In Court.
Washington, May 27.—John H.
Surratt was brought into the criminal
court to-day, to be tried for the murder
and conspiring to kill President Lin
coln. His brother. Isaac, bad been
brought from Texas, and was in the
court room. The defense was ready
for trial, but the United States not.—
The latter represented they had used
due diligence, but as yet had been
unsuccessful in procaring the atten
dance of four or five important witness-
No Trials for Treason.
The Washington correspondent of
the Charleston Courier writes that the
appearance of Mr. Jefferson Davis at
the November terra of the United
States Circuit Court will be merely for
mal. It is well understood that no
trial for treason, in bis case or that of
any other ex-Confederate, will ever
take place. The report that an indict
ment had been found by the grand
jury.at Richmond, against Mr. Breck
inridge, is den ied. The war. it is held,
settled the secession question,and it is,
therefore, unnecessary to hare a judi
cial decision that secession is unconsti
tutional. There was no treason in a
resert to arms for the settlement of the
great question whether a State could
secede or not. The war determined
the question. Neither party would
have submitted to soy decision by the
Federal Judiciary befo r e the decision
by arms, and after it none was neces
sary. The abolitionists before the war
were secession ists, particularly the
Ohio leaders Wade, Chase, &c. What
Mr. Davis is actually released from by
the late proceedings, is the urgent and
idle charge of complicity in the assas
sination of Lincoln. The charge of
treason was never intended to be pro
secuted.
Tue Munificence or a Stranger.—
It is peculialy gratifying to note so
praiseworthy an act of disinterested gen
erosity as that which came under our
nerice on yesterday, and since we are
satisfied that the benevolent gentle
men had no object in view but to
alleviate suffering, it is proper that
full credit should be given him. The
facts are briefly these: Judge John
Pearson, of Danville, Illinois, has
brought to this city, at hi* own expense,
over one thousand bushels of corn for
distibution to destitute widows and
orphans, every bushel of which is con
tributed by himself. Accompanying
the corn is about one hundred dol
lars worth of clothing, sent by the
benevolent ladies of Danville to be
disposed of in a similar manner.—
Judge Pearson left the city yesterday
for Cherokee county, carrying with
him three hundred bushels for the
more needy of that locality. He was
accompanied by our townsman, J. J.
Thrasher, Esq., who will assist him
in the noble work. The remaining
seven hundred bushels of corn, and the
clothing, have been turned ever to
Rev. H. C. Hornady, who will make
a proper distribution of Judge Pear
son’s munificence.—At Intel.

Toe Atlantic Cable Broken.—It
was fortunate that the Atlantic Tele
graph Company, after successfully lay
ing the cable of 1866, immediately re-
paited that of 1865. The cable of 1866
has just been broken by an ioeberg, and
the only line of communication with
the Old World is at p esent the cable
of 1865. It appears by a letter from
G. E. Stewart, chairman of the com
pany at London, that on the 4tb inst.,
at 6.30 P. M., a Heart’s Content, New
foundland, about 1} miles N. N. W.
of northern point, and about two hun
dred yards east of the 1866 cable, in
about sixteen fathoms of water. On
the 8th instant the iceberg disappear
ed. but in passing over the cable of
1866 such damage was done that the
signals through that cable became im
perfect, and have now ceased. The
capacity of the cable of 1865 exceeds
the requirements of the business, great
as it is, but the company expects to re
pair the damage of that of 1866 with
out delay.

Sharp lessons.
Under tbe reign of the first caliphs,
there was a merchant at Bagdad equal
ly rich and avaricious.
One day he bargained with a porter
to carry home fer him a large basket of
porcelain vases for ten paras. As they
went along, he said to the man :
“My friend, you are young, and 1 am
old; you can still earn plenty. Strike
off, I entreat you, a para from your
hire.”
“Willingly,” replied the porter.
This requ *st was repeated again and
again, until, when they reached the
house, tbe porter bad only one para to
receive. As they went up stairs the
merchant said:
“If you will resign the last para I
will give you three pieces of advice.”
“Be it so,” said the porter;
“Well, th»n,” said the merchant, “if
any one tells you it is better to to be
fasting than feasting, do not believe
him; if any one tells you it is better to
walk than ride, do not believe him; if
any one tells you it is better to be poor
than rich, do not believe him.”
“My good sir,” replied the astonish
ed porter, “I knew these things before;
but if you will listen to me, I will give
you advice such as you never heard.”
The merchant turned round, and the
porter throwing the basket down the
stair case, said to him:”
“If any one tells you that one of
your vases romains unbroken, do not
believe him.”
Before the miser could reply, the
porter made his escape.
Twelve thousand eight hundred
and twenty-six steerage passengersjhave

A YOUNG LADY returning to
ner country home, after a sojourn of a few
months in the city, was hardly recognized
by her friends. In place of a coarse, rustic,
flushed face, she had a soft ruby complex
ion of almost marble smoothnesss, and in
stead of twenty-three she really appeared
bnt eighteen. Upon enquiry as to the cause
of so great a change, she plainly told them
that she used the Circassian Balm, and
considered it an invaluable acquisition to
any lady’s toilet. By its use any lady or.
gentleman can improve their personal ap
pearance an hundred fold. It is simple in
Its combination, as nature herself is simple,
ret unsurpassed in its efficacy in drawing
mpurities from, also healing, clearing and
beautifying the skin and comploxion.—
By its direct action on the cuticle it draws
from it all its impurittei, kindly healing the
same, and leaving the surface as nature in
tended it should be, clear, soft, smooth and
