Prom our exchanges we notice that there
seems to be considerable commotion pre
vailing among the people of Tennesiee and
Missouri In referehce to certain measures
that have been adopted’by those in authorl
ty in those States. By an extract from the
Nashville Pros & Timet of the 10:h instant,
and from Governor Brownlow’a proclama
tion recently issued, both of which win be
found in our columns to-day, It will \j« scon
that the atate of feeling prevailing, particu
larly in Tennessee, is such as to create ap
prehension that in the adjustment of matters
In that State there Is likely to bo a great
deal of hot blood; if, indeed, the peace and
quiet of that people Is not greatly imper
illed.
It la evident, Irom the glimpses wo catch
of the contest going on there, that the dis
franchised parly feel that thoy havp been
dealt with in a proscriptive and unconcllia-
tory spirit. Without expressing any opinion
on this subject, as it is a matter, according
to our views, exclusively for the considera
tion ot the peoplo ot those States, we
allude to the matter at thl9 time, and Invite
the particular attention of our people to it,
hoping that they may derive profit from the
example of those who have gone before us
in the work of re-organlzlng their State
government.
Now that the people ot Georgia are about
to enter upon the work of re-organization,
we Invoke the spirit of liberality and con
ciliation to prevail in their deliberations
and actions. May prejudice, passion and
proscriptive feeling he banished from their
counsels, and may they he able to agree
upon and adopt such measures as will he
best calculated to preserve and promote the
honor and glory of our noble old State, and
protect and advance the interests of her
citizens. May nothing in their proceedings
prevail that will work Injustice to the bum
blest citizen of the Commonwealth, but may
the tights of each and all be respected.
If the spirit invoked shalj prevad, we
predict that no such manifestations as are
uow dcveloplng-thomselves with our neigh-
* bors oT Tennessee wfil be witnessed in this
State. Let reorganization be properly ef
fected, and our citizens will bend tbeir en
ergies to a resuscitation of tbe industrial
and commercial interests of the State, which
have been so much crippled and embarassed
by the operations and tho results of the
war.

Tbe Missouri Republican is actively en
gaged in the chivalrous business of Urine
the rebellious heart of Missouri. Batlsflef
that the Constitution lias been adopted, it
invokes revolation as a means of breaking
the force of that instrument. Its ravings are
similar to the hragadodo threats which came
from the Southern press in the earlier stages
of the rebellion. Wo were thon frequently
warned of the direful calamities which would
befall the "Black Republicans" in case they
persisted in their attempt to "cotrce" the
"invincible chivalry.” We havo become
somewhat accustomed to warnings, and
they havo ceased to produce tenor.
We do not kuow that such idle vaporing
Is worthy of notice, but if it is, these mis
chief makers may as well be intermedia
advance that any attempt on their part to
destroy and trample upon the laws ol Mis
sourl will receive a merited chastisement
The loyal men of Missouri love peaco, and
if they are disturbed In its enjoyment, they
will visit a punishment upon tlie law break
ers, the like ot which huA nut yet fallen upon
the crime of treason.
Tbe Bt. Joseph Union seems to have au
element around it exactly like that which is
seething and boiling iur)ons1y around the
loyal Btato Government of Tennessee. Cop-
perheadism and rebellion are alike over all
the land, and we are to-day fighting tbe bat
tle of 1801 over again, the loyal men having
the advantage, however, ot position, and a
batter knowledge of their adversaries. We
feel assured that Governor Fletcher will bo
fully sustained by the National Adminlstra
tlon, and will crush out the rebel opposition
We feel folly as confident that Uovernot
Itrownlow, representing a less rigid ami
exclusive policy than that of Gov. Fletcher,
has the hearty sympathy of 1‘resident John

prominent Copperhead of this State has
menacingly said to his Irlends that the pre
sent* Legislature shall pot re assemble in
October. We say that there is greater pro
babUlfy of his gathering the fruit of his se
dition in tbs Btato prison, than of earning
the reputation of a political prophet. A
copperhead paper ofthis State hasannouoc
«d in a boastful manner that the President
Is on tho side, of the conservatives of this
Btato. We take the responsibility of pro
nouncing the statement a barefaced, unau
thorized, lmmidont falsehood.
The President has, we venture to asterl,
at no time expressed any such sympathy

Us abhors, and who havo been the uniform,
unrelenting opponents of his whole policy
since1861. Neither has he, os has been bb

aspect of the political heaven*), the material
Interests of the community Are likewise Ufa
promising condition. The old merchants of
Savannah are re establishing (heir business
communication ', Blowly to bo sure and upon
a.llmitea'sc&le as yet, but with none the
lews confidence In ultimate success. The
numbers of Northern men wbo.have flocked
Into Savannah to do bnsln ess have crowded
themselves a little and havesfood in each

trade, amt the most desperate struggles to

WANT OK INTERCORMUNIOATIoN
Is the moss serious drawback to business at
preeant Tlw railroads are slfil uncomplet
ed, river transportation U precarious, owing
to tho scarcity oi suitable b iate, and the
ouly resources left is expensive aud tedious
overland teaming. A great -disproportion
consequently exists between the prices of
staples in-the interior aid here, tor in
stance, cotton at Macon filled from twenty-
iwo to twenty-six cents. While the New
York quotation, at about the same time,
was forty cents. Buck a disparity as this Is,
ol course, beyond all reasoo, ana illustrates
the chaotto at ate in- which trade MUl strug
gles in theSontb. There is besides almost
no money te.cIrcuUtlon, which greatly, ein
bsrrastes matters, the only mediun -of ex
change being tbe chart notes issued by tho
railroad and other companiex These,
however, are Irequently discredited, even in
the Immeditto.locallties where Issued. Still

A. WORD OP ADVICE TO NORTH
ERN.,. CREDITORS.
it Northern creditors W*lsh to recover a
portion or the whole ot their olqlms agaiust
the bualness men ol the South, wo will as
sure them that by acting upob our sugges
tions thoy will bo more likely .to aiiccced In
their ol ject than they wbiiKf if they resort
ed to hasty, summary -me^iuei. Tl**y
must be awarb that the South is in fen im
poverished condition; aud, no mutter how
their Nortberndebts, they cannot do so un
til they are placed in possession ol the
means. At prevent wo do not comprehend
how Northern creditors are to bebehetitted
by urging tbe adoption ot a policy which
tends to completekrtiiscouragirthe: termer
merchants of tlie South from agaiu engag
ing in business, 1 We have.previously Made
a tew remarks on tills subject, and we have
taken the libertyto^ij^lromohrpeWbnal
acquaintance with many leading Southern
men who Were extensively engaged in bus-!
mess in this city, that, in course of time,
provided they are not hampered with pre
mature law processes, they will be able to
satisfy the holders ol claims against them.
Tho Nonboru merchant' not-oujy wants to
collect past dues, buMis should aim also to
secure the future trade of his old customers.
All lhis.ho can. do by- ob^eiwteg a ,lenient
policy.
We do uot take.lho ground (hat Norlkorn
credited should expunge altogether their
Southern assets, bnt we do advise that they
should withhold presenting their claims un
til it Is clear they have some reasonable show
of having th(we claims settled without in-'
volvlng the debtors .ip complete rate. In
our mlust we.can count hundreds of (per-
chants Wbo aro desirous of establishing
themselves lu business during the coming
fail. Many of them, it is true,.owe large
amounts lo Northcln dealers, and they are
willing to pay those amounts when they
have accumulated sufficient funds. Now,
we would suggest tbat Northern creditors,
instead of pressing Southern merchants to
tke'wall, thereby iqueizing from them Tib
if particle of tjfiVmeaa vitality, should al
low them 16 nngaoft In their old pursuits,
and recover means, not only to discharge
former liabilities, tint to place 'Uomselveson
a sound business' basis.
The restoration ora healthy,, prosperous
trade to the Bomb will not bo accomplished
until communications with the interior dis
tricts are opened, and the system of cultivat
ing lands is brough} ipto thorough working
order. ' The South depends upon its crops
for prosperity. (lotion and rice. are the
chief staples in South Carolina, and we de
sire that all possible efforts should be made
to secure heavy crops ol each of those pro
ducts^ Whefethc planter has reaped his
fields he will scad bis products to a seaboard
market, and the money which he then ro
ctjves he will expend for the necesaries and
comforts of life. By tills moans the Charles
ton merchants wUl gradually work into
their old channels ot trade, and place them
selves In a condition to meet all outstand
ing liabilities.... q*; • . jj
U wilt not only be an error but an act ol
foolishness on tbe part of Northern credit
ors to crowd their Bout horn debtors to that
extent that they will ito wholly unable to
hold their hoads above water In the business
community, 'l’lie writer has heard dozens
of Southern merchants express their deter
mination to proceed north and settle fit
accounts as soon as they wore in a condition
to make the proper arrangements. We do
not look forward to a heavy-'liade in
Charleston during this heated season, al
though, to-Be Wlb, Uie bqalnBts which 1»
now Viug transacted is much inore exten
sive than.we had any. reason to anticipate.
Everything Indicates, howovef. lbaUIn three
months front now we will l see 'Charleston
doing the largest hndneas of any city on the
Southern coast. This stale oJ affairs Will
be as beneflclut to the North as to the South,
and it will be to the interes’. ol the former
sectton tO do all in its power, to promote
commercial intercourse as raphuy as possi
ble. We repeal, give Southern debtoia a
reasonable length VI time to iniot tbe pay
ment of hills formerly contracted at the
North, and the result will he advantageous
to the creditor. We urge a moderate exer
cise of patience Aud discretion, and are con
fident that the adoption of such A course
will lead to favorable and asiWtautory re-
suits.—Charlttlon Courhr,
