Whilst Atlanta ia a bustling, progressive city, we are rather inclined to think that even the “Gate City " will aet be able to swing a fourth daily into tha green pastures of success. Oar convictions, however, do not prevent as from wishing the enterprise suocess. Georgia has already a sufficiency of newspapers, unless they were better, or readers and patrons more The Americas Courier mentions a most sin gular cireumatanoa. it aays: “About ten days ago, a little boy between five and six years old, son of Dr. J. F. Cato, of BofcUford, in this county, was deprived, by Providence, of speech and hearing. He had retired to bed as usual in good health, sometime in the night he was heard to attar a scream whioh attracted the attention of his mother, (bis father being away from home at the time,) who went to see whet was the matter. Find ing him soundly sleeping she returned to her room, thinking, no doubt, that be had been dreaming. The next morning the little fellow arose at the usual hour, but to the astonish ment ef his mother ho was both deal and dumb. He still remains in this oondition." A TrtM«adem« Report.

D., Clerk of the House of Bepreeeutative8 of the United States, has just been publtehed, and contains tbe same Class of facts found in previous Manuals by the same aothor, the record being continued from the date of the close of the Manual for 1868 to the present time. The votes in Oon gross on the passage, and in tbe State Leg islatures on the ratification of the Fifteenth Amendment of the Constitution of the United States, decisions of the Supreme Court Texas and McArdle cases, on the legal-tender act, etc., and the general political miscellany are amoog the contents of the present volume. — Washington, D. C. t Rational Re publican. 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 fhilare was not total and lamentable, bat It was not » Judge Blear aad the Supreme Beach. Bat one thing bee been determined hi ref erenee to tbe new appointments for judge* and that is that Attorney General Hoar will ba appointed to All the preeeat vacancy on the Supreme Bench. It to expected that Justice Grier will resign early in Deeember, aad that both vaenaetos will ba Ailed at the Cam# time. —Wa$h. cor. N. T. Times. 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. sNWJwaM " briug forth tbaaHMtoa* « joioiog," Tha thing la abaard. luciic.tl to behave that tb**» < originate* in the fertile brain of [3forA Ooorylu In eonaaoMon with tbo Uttar olanao of tha abora paragraph, wa will qaiatij remind tha editor that he eboold not aeeaort other peo ple'* ears ia Me own half barbel (a aJMOk- iag ol Col Halbert aa w* did, wt reflected tha riawa of tba people, and If oar apodal Mead, the Citizen, ia in the laaat duploaoed, wa oon't help it.

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.

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.
