of speech and hearing. He had retired to bed
as usual in good health, sometime in the

attracted the attention of his mother, (bis

Tbe NUU Fair.
We were niterly unable to attend the Geor
gia State Fair in person, consequently for
basis to onr opinions we have to depend opon
information received from editors, correspon
dents and others who were there. Wo are
satisfied from all reports that the exhibition
was by no means a failure. We know that it
has been pronounced so, and that a gnat
deal of blame has beeu heaped upon Secreta
ry Lewie and the Executive Committee, most
of whioh we deem to be unjustified by the
oirenmstances attending the whole Fair.
We do not purpose entering np
cial defense of Mr. Lewis, the committee
or any one else connected with tha affair; nor
do we aim to show that Atlanta, Savannah or
any other city could have done better than
Macon nnder the circumstances. But there
are facte, which should elways be thrown
into the balance, which offset a great deal of
the incompleteness-and inadequacy of the
arrangements. It was tha first Stato Fair
hald since the war. No man oould foresee an
assemblage of twenty thousand persons, when
not more than five thousand could reasonably
have been expected. Neither Secretary
Lewis nor the Executive Committee had any
oontrol ot the weather, nor was there a Joshua
among them to whoee behests the sun, moon
and stars were obedient. No one could get
the goods, intended for exhibition, on the
ground before railroads saw fit to transport
them; neither coultlf any one show goods
that did not arrive before tbo oloee of {the ex
hibition; nor oould first premiums be awarded
to every artlole in any certain Una of goods,
stock, manufactures or implements. These
few oardinal facts, those who have written
about the Fair, seem to have forgotten; there-
fore they do injustice not only eo Macon,
but to tbe whole State. We think It
did honor to the Stale. The overwhelming
crowd in attendance, tbe immense and
unprecedented amount of goods and ariiolas
■ant for exhibition, all did credit to tbe State,
and we are proud that such a show of indus
trial and agricultural enterprise a as made.—
What appeared to be a failure was a whole
some lesson to tbe people, end will fortify
every one who bee a pride in Georgia to put
forth extraordinary efforts to secure e complete
success next year. We are satisfied that things
are as they are. Tbe great wonder ia that the

toil hsM that Gaaigta has toiled inker pom-
rilh the conditions named—as well
In her failure to enforce the XIYth Artiole as
in the illegal ccjMtofoa of the oetored mam-
hero of the Legislature—the Bute to still
praetioally unreconstructed.
Xjmdm ?Uw of the oaee—and it to tbs
tiav whioh Congress seems inclined to take—
Georgia to aotoally as much out of Urn Union
fo-day aa to Virginia and Misatoslppl. The
nation of the last named States will have to
be ratified by Cougreee, before their reoon
•traction to complete* If, upon reviewing
tha matter, it should appear to Congress that
eantial point of the law has been
overlooked or evaded. then further legisla
tion may be deemed ueceuary ; and, iu each
an event, ft to quite clear that, during the
interval, tha States namod would not be en
titled to their Constitutional rights as mam
bers of the Union. Reconstruction would be
iu abeyance; or at least contingent upon
certain oeto to be performed.
This to eeeeotially the cooditiou of Geor
gia to-day. Efforts have toiled to satisfy Con
gress that the provisions of tbe XIVth Ar
ticle were enforced by the primal legislature
in July '68. It to olaimod that there
were a large number of members in
both branches of the General As
sembly who were obnoxious to this Amend
ment, but that thay were permitted to retain
their seats In open violation or evasion of tha
BeooostruoUon Acts. And it to maintained,
in tha second place, that the action of this
body in expelling certain members ou account
of color merely, was such an evasion of the
purpose and spirit of the law, as, practically,
to nullify all claims of the State to recogni
tion as a member of the Union by virtue of
her compliance with the Reconstruction Acts.
Hence, Georgia is still deprived foil member
ship in the Union. With her, reconstruction
If still in abeyance; and it lies with Cougreee
to say what shall be done.
It has been proposed, in order to propitiate
Oougrees—by showing a willingness to com
ply with the law—that the ootored members
be restored to their seats in both Houses; that
the body then purge itself of all ineligible
members, as provided io the XIVth Article;
and that, as an additional aaraest of good faith,
the XVth Amendment be ratified.
This would, of course, oover the whole
ground in controversy. We havo all along
held that a strict enforcement of the XIVth
Article, and a prompt compliance, in spirit,
with tbs decision of the Supromo Court, on
the negro eligibility question, would afford an
antidote for all the ills to which our State is
subjected; and as a Republican we should be
pleased to sec the XVth Amendment ratified,
not as a condition to reconstruction merely,
but because (from our standpoint,) it is right
in itself.
There are grave doubts, however, in the
minds of many able and well-informed Re
publicans in Georgia, whether, at this late
day, such action on the part of our Lcgiala-
ture is possible, or at least expedient. Al
ready have party feuds, ami personal aud po
litical animosities been engendered by tbe
bitter and protracted discussion of those issues.
The question of restoring the oolored
bers has produced much acrimony and bad
feeling among those who should be friends.
Even some Republicans, it is intimated, will
not vote for this measure—giving os a reason
therefor that such action wonld so inflame the
passions of their neighbors us to make their
homes less preferable than exile itself. And,
when it to borne in mind that the General
Assembly, as at present constituted, has a
working Dsmocratio majority iu both Houses
and that no Democrat, who is not prepared to
sacrifice himself with his party, will vote to
put negroes iu office, it is hardly within the
range of reasonable probability that such
tion will be bad. And if had, it is auggestod
that its tendency would be, not to allay pas
sion and lawlessness, but to perpetuate
strife and contention in localities where
peace and good feeling should prevail.
Nor, would it accord, with our expe
rience in human affairs, (or the Legis
lature, as at present constituted, to concede the
whole point in controversy, go back upon its
entire record, resolvo itself into a Provisional
body aa in July, 1868, and then purge itself of
all members obnoxious to tbs XIVth Article.
The good of the country might indeed demand
such a sacrifice, but it is not iu human nature
to make it.
Under all these circuuoBtancca, the probe
bilities of adjustment, by tbe parties them'
selves, seems remote indeed ; and, whilst the
local politicians are thns higgling over a ques
tion whioh they cannot decide, the best inter
ests oi tha Htate and the prosperity of the in
dustrial masses are in suapeuae. Neither
party will yield to the other. Discussion
widens, rather than bridges over the breach ;
and tna intervention of a third party seems
necessary to a permanent settlement. That
third party is Congress. We have consistently
held that Congress is (he ultimate tribunal in
matter ; and have all along expressed a
determination to abide the decision of that
body, be that decision what it may. And we
believe farther, that this to the eoutiment of
nearly every Republican aad Union man in
Georgia. Nay, we believe it is the prevailing
sentiment among many prominent moderate
Democrats of the State ; for it is a favorite
dogma of the Democracy that, whilst they will
not self impose 14 negro equality " upon Geor
gia, they are nevertheless 44 prepared to submit
to all suoh iniquitiee when imposed by tbe
Government. ” There is muoh food for reflec
tion in this saying ; and it to not improbable
that Oongreae will take the hint.

seceders from tbe Republican Convention yes
terday took place this morning at the office of
the Htate Journal, the Republican organ. Sixty
members were present—about one-half of the
original Convention.
James H. Clements, the former candidate
for Lieutenant Governor on the Republican
ticket, was chosen Chairman.
J. H. Platt, member elect of Congress, re
cited the canses of the withdrawal, which he
said were mainly found in a determination of
a party in the Convention to choke off by fair or
unfair means a large number of the members
present He thought the majority report,
adopted by foroe, was a direct censure
on the President and Congress, and in oppo
sition to tbe Republican party of the
oountry. He believed that if tbe Republican
party of Virginia ooold be pul io acoord with
the regular party qj the country and made so
that men of liberal views could join it, it
conld carry the State. The declarations in
the address to Congress about danger to tho
Republicans, discover the deception to the
ultimate injury to the Republican party.
John W. Jenkins, obairmau of tbs Rapub
lican State Central Committee stated that the
things stated of people of Virginia In the ad
dress were untrue, and the life of a Republi
can was as safe in Virginia as in New York.
O. A Hine, leader of the Republicans ia
the Constitutional Convention, said this
movement was not wholly the rosnlt of yes
terday’s proceedings, but of a growing desire
among the people that tbe Bepublioan party
iu Virginia should be put upon a liberal and
respectable basin, by whioh U might be en
abled to carry the State.
The general drift of the speeches was that
tho times have changed, aad that the Repub
lican party of Virginia mast be pot in aocorfl
with the Republican party of the oountry.
Proscription and tbe reckless denunciation of
the people or the State must be stopped as
obsolete ideas, and the party must be made
strong and respectable, and ought to oarry tbe
Hta^ on its own merits, as the party in other
•tates does.
All the speakers disclaimed the idea of
forming another party, and only desired to
reorgan Ee the one now existing.
A committee of 16 was appointed to call a
Republican Convention at such time aait may
think proper, for reorganisation.
The Convention of scoedera adjourned after
appointing a committee. It to believed that
the Convention for reorganisation will be
oalled shortly after the session of the Legisla
ture commences.
The idea of the speakers this morning
seemed to be that the breaking np and reor
ganization of parties to ocour utter the Legis
lature raeeis. The Republican party, if placed
on liberal basis, will become strong enough to
curry the State at the next election.
There were twelve colored members of the
ConventiaU at the seceders meeting.
Montoombhy, November 26.—The legisla
ture met this morning after a two days ad
journment Tbe Senate proceedings were
unimportant. In tbe House .Mr. Magee,
a Democratic member from Mobile, re
cently seated was expelled on the
ground that before the war he had beeu a
county commissioner.a The credentials of
McKiustry, Radical, who was defeated by
eight hundred majority by Magee, were seut
up and it is understood ho will be admitted at
an early day.
MoKinatry wan in tbe Legislature before tbe
war, and Probate and City Judge, aud his die-
ibilities have not yet been removed. It is
thought that several other Democrats will be
[pelled in a day or io.
The State Fair is a decided success. Over
five thousand people were present yesterday
and to-day. It closes to-morrow.
The Alabama River is very full. The
steamer Loo carries off to night over 1,000
bales of cotton.

THE ADVANTAGES of these Speotaoies over all
1. They can he worm with perfect
for any length of time at one sitting, giving astonish
ing dearness of vision, by candle or any other artifi
cial light, comfort to the spectacle-wearer hitherto
». Uow to select Glasses. It reqalren
professional guidance even when a good artiole is
fered. Dr. Bernhardt not only baa the best Glasses
that can bs found In the market, bat carefully exam
ines the eyes, and gives indispensable advice as to
proper selection of them.
3. Wheat the eyes ache or pain fhroi
the action of a bright light, suoh as is reflected from
the snow, sunny weather, white paper, and in reading,
writing or sewing, or vivid oolored bodies; these
lenses, by softening the rays, effect a most agreeable
sensation and give great relief.
4. These Spectacles are scientifically ad
justed to every oaae of defective sight with unerring
accuracy, whether arising from age, strain, over work,
or premature decay, by Morris Bornhardt on a new
and exact principle, entirely his own, whioh has seldom
felled to be correct.
5. After several years of public practice
adjusting spectacles to patients under every aspect
defective visit n, as well as experience In so extensive,
long-established business in his Optical Stores, both
her* and In Europe, M. Bernhardt considers it a suffi
cient guarantee of his ability t> supply such glasses
are best calculated for tbe atslstance of imperfect
sight.
0. M. Bernhardt, to signalise himself
from th* host of pretenders In his profession, with
pride submits for inipeotioo, ooplesof testimonial*
has received from medical gentlemen of th* moat
quaationabla respectability and talent In America;
also, a number of certlflcatee from well known gentle
men of distinction who have used his spec tael os—the
originals of all which he will be happy to ahow
those who may request it The use of any of tho
lowing names or certificates hereunto affixed, without
an actual possession of th* same, would be a forgery,
aoapltal offence, punishable by State Impriaonment
Testimony of recommendation)

Atlanta, Oa., November Ud, I860.
I have examined carefully, and with much interest, _
collection of gleaaee for the relief of impaired vision,
submitted to me by Prof. Bernhardt, on Optician.
In adaptation to the end proposed, aa veil as In ale

earring the patronage of whomsoever may unfortu
nately require their use.

Atlanta, Ga., November 3d, i860.
It affords me pleasure fo state that 1 here carefully
examined Prof Bernhardt's collection of glasses for
the eye, end from hie explanation of the manner in
which he adepts them to imperfect eyes, I am fuUy
satisfied that he thoroughly oomprehaads the ecleucl
of Optica, end that he U practically eminently skillful
in the adoption of instrument* for th* relief of all
forms of imperfect vision within the scope of relief
without an operation.
I am confirmed in my own opinion, of the Profes
sor’* merit by the testimony of the most reliable end
fffluant medloel men in various cities in the United
I moeiiheerfttlly commend him to ell with whom
my opinion may have any weight.
