Pistol Gallery.—Mr. Larouque, agent
has under his control one of the most com
. pletc Pistol Galleries in the South. lie
‘*:olds forth* in. the cellar under the. Paris
House, formerly occupied by the Messrs.
Tomlirson as a Liquor Saloon. The room
is clean, healthy and large, being 40 by SO
feet. Mr. L. has a large assortment
t ds, the new duelling rifle pi’stel pievaillng.
The time has come when our Southern youth
should understand.how to use the pistol. It
is the only weapon that can successfully de
fend our mothers, wives find sisters from
the brutal negro or the vagabond whit cman.
We say, encourage the pistol Gallery; the
money thus spent may enable you to pr:
toot the honor, perhaps the life, of a being
whom you dearly lore.
Negro Freedom Personified.—A ne
gro woman in the employ of Mr. John
jtrack, drowned herself last Saturday morn
ing in the well on Mr.* B’s lot. When first
seep she, was clinging to the well-rope with
< , Mr head and shoulders above the water.—
The lolks with wlionl she lived endeavored
to^persuacle her to hold on, to the rope, but
she refused, saying that she knew she would
be damned anyhew, and that she was about
as well prepared to die' then as she would be
even wfire she to prolong her life. She
th^n let go the rope and sank. For days
before her death she betrayed symptom^ of
insanity, • especially on the subject of re.

r Although this-section of Georgia sufte; ed
less from the late war than any other port ion
* ■-' “ v ' of the State, yet by the emancipation of our
slaves this county alone lost over $G,000,00c.
This, of course, curtailed the means of our
citizens for building, and making other ne
cessary improvements on their lots. We
notice, however, several frame buildings in
v- the course of erection, but nvt sufficient to
meet the demands of tenants, llents are
1 ' -T enormously high in consequence, and in the
v business portion of our city the landlords
•V.-" receive more dollars in greenbacks than they
did during the war in Confederate currency
for store rooms. We know of small rooms,
15 by 25 feet, bringing $60 per tnonth, and
V^sornc as high as $100 and 0125. Would it

It is said that General Grant in a re^
cent conversation iaided'; that,it was his de
termination to squelch all the treasonable
sheets in the South.—[Northern paper.
And, pray, what does this self-styled dic
tator intend to do with the radical sheets of
the North, some of which have been the or-<.
gans of traitors and disunionists for the last
twenty-five years—the N. Y. Tribune for in
stance? What will the Lieutenant General
do with the Cayuga Chief, and its copper-
Colored editor, Fred. ^Douglass, who, on
more than one occasion, pronounced the
the Constitution of the United States an in
strument of the Devil, and its framers his
satelites? As an humble member of the
Southern press, we would respect ully in
form the General that we have sworn allc-
ianco to the Constitution, and not to him
or his subordinates. The State of Georgia
has faithfully fulfilled all that was required
of her by the President, aqd the United
States Supreme Court, with the exception of
Salmon P. Cfiasc, than whom a worse ene
my the South never had, a few days since
ie?oguized our State Governments as legiti
mate. The Constitution of Georgia declares
that freedom of speech and the liberty of
the press shall not be infringed' upon; but
a power (military) entirely foreign to our
institutions, stops forward and says the peo
ple of the South shall not complain of their
grievances, nor shall the Southern press ex
ercise the poor privilege of resenting thet
innumerable falsehoods and slanders with
which the radical press teem against Jhe
honor and good faith of our people. For
one we are not the least intimidated by
Gen. Grant’s threat. If he, or any other
man, attempts to blacken the fair escutcheon
of the Southern States by foul misrepresen
tations and seif-evideut ljes, we will have no
hesitation to express o*r opinion of him,
which, even now, is not tire mos: exalted.
Over six months ago* Gen. Wilson threat
ened to suss&jul fcliij -y«*i»cr-, oecause
proved from the Constitution that U. IS.

present from referring to the Washington
Government, directly or indirectly; but
Uow as wc are assailed on all side.*, both by
civil a-nd milkary officials of the general
Government, we deem it our duty to hurl
nnding, is hereby temporarily suspended,
and the liu hmon l Examiner will'be *per-

ple of the States lately in rebellion, or the
cultivation o! friendly relations between the
people oftheM' States, or-any of them, and
other States of the Union—and that it will
not in anywise fail in its editorial, corres
pondence or transfer of articles from other
newspapers, to give support, countenance
and friendship to acts and expressions o*
loyalty to the Union and its supporters.

IIow to Restorethe-Uniox.—The New

Union at once if she will only send a full-
