A Valuable Discovery. It is a singular fact that iri.niariy 'parts of the South; inaccessible by railways orotlier nodes of speedy transportation, toe usa of ce is regarded as an epicurian _ indulgence, which may ho dispensed with as you dispense with a variety of articles universal, ly classified as luxuries. Its value as a jKiwerful remedial agent iii the treatment of n numerous class'of diseases peculiar lo rarm climates is seemingly unknown, .or, f known, unappreciated. This popular delusion will soon be cor ected, however, by the general introduc : ion of ice as an article of commerce and ,rhde, which is likely' to bo accomplished without the expense of transportation from Northern climes, and the consequent lqss by wastage. We have observed, in a late issue of the ‘Augusta Constitutionalist, a letter address ed the editor, by gr.C. C. Girardoy, of New Orleans, a gctleroan of high character, a’liich gives an interesting account of a ma chine recently invented tor tile manufacture of ice, that is capable of supplying the de mand, however grcatjiu the city%or neigh borhood where it may bo used, at, the low lost- of cine cent per pound. The machine s successfully operated at several points in Louisiana and .Texas, where the heavy cost if imported ice forbids its use. ' .Mr. Girardey in the course of bis remarks llnded to dost of this article in New Orleans /hen brought from the North, ho says:— The cost here is three cents to the cousum- r, and the quantity-imported about 89,000 oils per annum. We.can safely estimate lie wastage from molting to be about onc- alf this quantity. The freight paid fropi iostouto this pojt ranges irorit J8 to 415 •er ton—on an average not less than $10 ier ton. Out of a cargo shipped from Bos- ui, is estimated by dealers that onc-third S least is lost by shrinkage and loss.— ‘his will make the cost by transportation > any Southern port equal to about ^15— caving diit of view entirely the prices paid t this Yankee mills.” He states that the cost of the machine • innufacturcd ice is $2,50 per ton, which is. saving ofimported iceof about $11, besides .ivirig employment to our own people as ngincers and managers. This is certainly • good showing that the invention wiU bo- oine in a short time, an institution' of the Louth.' Mr. G. concludes his letter with the re nark that i’fwill pay beyond any dtlier in- i us trial enterprise now established a,s an investment, prove a relief to communities, nd establish the independence of a large ortion of onr Southern people in an article • iiieh from its general use and great ne : .essity, has'become almost indispensable.

HOME. MANUFACTORIES. , Much is being said ot home manufactories and the.indeperidenee of the South, and the wonder is, why Onr people do not enter more extensively iijto tlio sources of prosperity and wealth. We can assure them that it is the laggard disposition-of home capitalists. Wc know a man who owns a fine body of tho best timbered iand in South-Western Georgia, and is accessible to navigation and market, and who. offers to furnish timber if any one .will furnish- steam. A steam saw and grist mill, with shingld machine, fla ming machine, Ac., Vhc., attached, could, in a short time, make a fortune for poor eiltcf; prising men. It is the safest and best busi. noss a man can embark in. Wo will see if there is any among us sufficiently energetic as to accept these terms, with a view to the encouragement of liiyne manufactories, ATLANTIC CABLE. Now that the utility and phictienbiiity t>f the sub-ocean telegraph is settled, and by which wo are .iii speedy and direct commu nication with Europe, may we not hope soon to experience an improvement in the politi. cal and financial conditions of flic two coun tries. We .want trade improved, prices equalised, speculation prevented, and busi ness of- every character on a more secure, and firmer footing. Wc truly live in an age of progress. What wc most need is enlight ened statesmanship to guide and govern oiir future destiny. This only is wanting to bring on a National feeling ot brotherhood with all free white and enlightened Govern ments. By the exercise of deep thought, with calm judgment, liberal minds and ex alted patriotism, wc shall be able to place a proper standard on neutrality ami national laws and give a sound and healthy direction to legislation and diplomacy. When shall we see the Atlantic bridged, pnd the “iron horse” puffing along its course over the blue wafers of the brp.aij aip] hq-iiiy deep ? Are you startled ? WHAT THE RADICALS INTEND. The New York News says the Radicals have evidently determined to. “step at noth ing.” Their motto being that of all desper ate men of all ages of the world; “to rule or to ruin.” One of their meditated steps is tlio impeachment of President Johnson.— The Rump Parliament did not hesitate to bring to trial theis Sovereign, Charles the First. The present Congress, with far less excuse, in fact without the shadow of a rea son, Bavo their own insensate hate, will not likt; the effrontery to pronounce fnTSc judg ment upon our duly elected President." This is one of the signs of the times. The meas ure has already been discussed in the parti san prints. The President’s course in tlie New Orloans-riots, and similar acts, will furnish for tlieir purposes accusation enough; Congress has the power and the will like wise ; if manipulated by unscrupulous-and skilful leaders the measure .vpill be a suc cess, and Mr. Johnson's office will be filled by Sumner or some kindred Radical New England fiinaticisnwill rush over the land in a full tide pf bloody glory—Massachu setts will be all in all. A Directory will be established, equaling iu costly terror tliat of Danton, Marat and Robespierre, and the ad vocates of “civil rights” will have “rights" enough, and some that are not “civil.” This may sound like tho utterance or forboding of an alarmist/but stranger things (ban this have chanced, even iii dir own day. The war.came upon us uiiawafes ; and so came peaeefand. -so,' unless wc take liecd, may come the impeachment of Andrcfv Johnson. But it is not'yet too late to prevent this ca tastrophe. Congress can be checked by the Fall elections, and- public opinion can be rightly directed and rendered overwhelm-" ly triumphant by the Philadelphia Conven- PUlLApELPOlA CONVENTION. ’N* We believe-riearly every State in the Un ion, North, South, East add. West,: have held large and enthusiastic Conventions, and appointed delegates to meet in Nqtional council at Philadelphia, 4 on the'14th inst.— Iu Pennsylvania,.the great Key Stone State, every county was tally' Represented mid like her sister States, passed strong resolu tions 8ustaining.the administration and de nouncing in unmeasured terms the designs of the Radical Congress a’nd their fanatical acts as distinctive 'tp the Constitution, and tending to centralization,'.a general over throw of the Government, and the liberties of .the people. The Soldiers’ Convention hold at .Harris burg Penn., w^s the largest ever held W the Statc, wbich passed similar ffesolutiqns. The grand mass! (Wyentipn of.. Irig|iir}0Ti at Washington, D. C„ waPtbe most puRifl; elastic ever held by them on a similar occa; sion in this country. We annex an impor tant resolution passed by that body which sustained the administration and denoun ces the the vain attempt- of the Radicals to control the Irish vote of this country, Resolved, 3d.—That we denounce and ‘repudiate the political eharlotans wl\p pre tend to be leaders of the Iq»h lieop ,<? > U n d we declare that tliis Convention of Irish men see nothing to condemn, but everything to approve, in thevyise, humane, and states man like course iffiich■ President*. Johnson in his reconstruction policy i§ pursuing and we therefore pledge him-one unpurclmsed and legal support whilst- adhering to that line of policy, so that every State maybe .re stored to its sovereign birth-right, beauty aiid grandeur. •‘REFORM” ON BCTII SIDES OF TnE WATER. Tlie New York News gays it is an old and tnje saying that ‘‘extremes input,” and the force of this adage is strikingly illustra ted at the present time alike in Grest Brit ain aud thp United Statcg. In tho former country their exists an aristocracy, the most. ealthy and influential in- Europe, which strives to control the people irrespective of nny popular interests, heedless oi any argu ments save those which affect its own pros-, perity or existence. But the people have at last grown weary of tills state of tilings, and the great question of Reform, which tor Pinig'delphia Convention. A GREAT SUCCESS.
