Ttje article owr the
which oppeeM In enoUser ooiomn of this man
lag’s Iktkluoenckr, is another testimonial,
among tbo thousands that hare preceded it, to
the truth that "history repeats Itsoil,” and will
continue to do so till the end of time, we ronluro
to alarm, If Irom the past in regard to nations,
we aw permitted to judge ol the future, or if
there he any truth in tho proposition, that “like
causes will produce like effects." The “eounter-
pHrt in history” which "nusseU" furnishes for
these columns, forcibly Illustrative as it Is of the
proposition thst "history repeats Itself,” we com
mend to the perusal of our readers, bearing them
back, as it will, to that most interesting period
In English history when republican triumphs
ovor tho royal prerogative, resulted only In the
establishment of a military despotism, itself so
odious that upon the demise of the great despot
himself the restoration of tho monarchy wss
perfected, republicanism receiving its death-blow
in that event, for it has never since reared its
head in place or power in the whole British
realm. Tho modern, or American republican
ism, under which the States ol this Union now
groan, has now its day of ascendancy and tri
umph, but it also will as surely pass away, to be
succeeded, perhaps, by a military despotism, and
that, perhaps, by a second “restoration"—one
' that will restore to our people their ancient lib
erties and re-establish constitutional government.
But we have gone farther than we intended at
t he outset of these remarks, in calling the atten
tion ol our readers to the well written essay of
our correspondent “Russell,” whose "counter
part in history," we can assure them, is well
worth, not only their perusal, but serious con
sideration and study.
Good News.
The New York World notes the following
facta:
In Chicago, com that sold for $1 10 per bushel
the third week in May, fell to 00 cent” per bushel
on the 51 h ot June—a difference of 20 cents in
less than three weeks. Good I
Oats, which sold for 90 cents on May 28, fell
off to CO cents on June 5—a difference of 30
cents in a few days. Better and better.
Rye, which sold for ft 57 in May, wanted pur
chasers in June at $1 02—fifty-five cents differ
ence. Splendid, this.
Wheat, No. 2 Spring, which was quoted at
$2 85 per bushel in May, sold as low as ft 90 in
June—a decline of 95 cenls. Hurrah, and a
tiger.
This is good news, indeed. Well may a "hur
rah and a tiger ” be given for it throughout the
suffering and impoverished South. Thank God,
the wheat harvest in our State promises an abun
dant yield—more than our fields have produced
for many years. The weather, too, lor harvest
ing has thus far proved propitious. In a week
or two more from tho seaboard of our Stato to
the mountains, the wheat crop will be gathered,
ready for use, and ready for market. And the
corn, and the cotton, both promise well. With
good seasons, Georgia will be, os she has beenol
old, blessed with plenty.
Not Right.—In Savannah a few days since
one of tiie newspapers relused to furnish the
other with a proof of the proceedings of the
Chatham Bar relative to tho death of Chief Jus
tice Lumpkin, although requested to do so by
the Clerk of the Court. We have in our mind's
eye almost a similar circumstance happening not
a thousand miles from this city. It is a mean
and contemptible spirit, and should be exorcised
from the press.—New Era.
We know nothing of the occurrence at Savan
nah, referred to in the foregoing local item in
yesterday morning’s Era. We have reason,
however, to believe that tho writer of the afore
said item, in bis reference to “ a similar circum
stance happening not a thousand miles front this
city," meant that it happened with this journal.
In the absence of the editor of tho Era, we aro
a *ij ujo y rthicu toe lucarcoi-
utnoyot that paper are, or may be, put; and in
his absence the Intelligencer's oDly reply to
the contemptible insinuation of the little creature
who makes it, is, that it would be well for the
Era, and the gentleman who controls its col
umns, it the writer ot the foregoing paragraph
would base bis conclusions more upon facte than
upon his own incentive imagination. Satisfac
tory explanation, in regard to the “circum
stance " to which tho local of the Era alludes,
will be made, if desired, to his absent em
ployer ; it enunot now be made to tho fueey, little
individual wito altogether forgets himself when
attributing “ a mean and contemptible spirit ” to
others.
Foreign Special Telegrams of (ho New

upon many ol them by the press of that city;
ridicule directed at others. Perhaps the follow-

THE ATTEMPT TO KILL TnE CZAR.
Paris, June 7.—Evening.—It is 9aid that af
ter the attempt upon the life ol the Emperor of
Russia, Napoleon, turning to the Czar, and smi
ling, said, “ Sire, we have been under lire to
gether.”
The Czar replied, " Our destinies are iu the
hands ol Providence.”
" Yes,” said Napoleon, gayly, “ and the assas
sin’s hands were in (he destinies ol Providence."
“ Very true," said the Czar, shrugging his
shoulders with an arch expression.
" If so, why not?" inquired Napoleon. Then
turning to the Herald reporter, who had obtain
ed entrance to the Imperial carriage by showing
his badge, lie said, “ Make a nolo of this conver
sation."
" Do so,” said the Czar, shaking our rc|>ortcr
warmly by the baud; “lam sorry my escape
has deprived you of an interesting item."
Our reporter bowed gravely, but did not re
spond in the affirmative, lest he should be eject
ed from the carriage.
Napoleon looked steadfastly at our reporter lor
a moment, and then winked his lelt eye three
times in a manner which conveyed his full ap
preciation of the enterprise of this paper.
The three sovereigns of France, Russia and
Thought then passed on amid the cheers of the
populace.
The Wheat Crop.—The Rome Commercial
of Thursday says: The wheat harvest in this
section is now in full blast, and a splendid pros
pect for a good yield. The samples we have
seen are very line, grain large and heavy. We
may safely say, that Cherokee-Gcorgia will raise
wheat enough to supply the entire State, if judi
ciously used. We have beard of the sale of one
crop, at two dollars per bushel. Every farmer
i should sell his wheat at once, as we are of opiu-
“ ion, from the prospect throughout the Union,
that the crop will be largely over an average
one. From every scclioa ol the State we receive
similar report*. The suggestion of the Rome
paper to sell on tho opening market Is perhaps a
good one. _
The Impeachment Fiasco.—The Nation, a
Radical journal, speaking ot the lame and Im
potent conclusion lately arrived at by the House
Judiciary Committee, In regard to the impeach
ment of tliu President, says: "The whole thing
has been an attempt of men who oo not think
much, but feel furiously, to give their passions

suspended payment last Wednesday. It is said
embarrassment is only temporary, and that

I
truer maxim than
The philosophy of
conditions and olrcurn-
he same causes produce (he
as a thousand years ago.
Iu many ol iu striking and prominent features
our late revolution traces its counterpart to that
which occurred in England, in the middle of the
seventeenth century. The latter resulted from a
co-equal combination of political and religious
, in their struggle for larger liberties ; tho
former more strictly lrom social and political
sources. And yet, In cither case, the results are
strikingly similar. In England tho growth of
religious liberty, springing fVom tho reformation,
had been checked ; iu fVnits not yet ripened into
fruition, under the liberal promises of the re
formation. In a political sense, monarchy had
usurped supreme control of tho liberties ot tho
people; hence, disaffection venting itself In the
freedom of revolution. With us, whatever the
ulterior causes, and however much they may
have differed from tho former, the result is likely,
in many respecU, to lie the same. The tendency
of tho party in power to infringement is being
more and more developed, as the drama unfolds.
The usurpation of Congress is supreme, and its
unlimited power asserted over tho laud.
With us, as in England, it was maintained at
first that a legal and a constitutional preservation
of the government should ho observed; that no
inlrantion ol the Constitution should be allowed;
no violation of private right assumed. Tho laws
hitherto in force, and the States as organized,
were to remain intact, with the obligations of
the Constitution as binding as at first. In Eng
land, unmasked and foreign to duplicity, the pur
poses of the revolutionary party were proclaim
ed. There were no conspiracies in which a C«sar
might receive the fatal stab. Here it secretly de
signed the subversion and overthrow of the
rights and liberties of the people; there it opcu
ly inveighid against the potency of existing sys
tems. Here, whilst it falsely professed one thing,
in secret madness it worked to accomplish an
other. There, tho power of the King was to be
abridged; here, that of the President curtailed.
There, tho House of Commons was to be cn
dowed with larger functions. Here, Congress
in like manner, should become supreme. Iu Eng
land it openly proclaimed its purpose to create a
change in the government, assuming that its
form and spirit were radically defective, and that
the remedy could only be applied through an
overthrow. Disregarding the history and tradi
lions of her past, ignoring her institutions, the
sacredness of iter national memories, the glory
of her renown, it sought to upset, the whole
structure ol government, witli its established so
cial and political systems. It would have fixed
new relations between tbo Parliament and
Crown, extended the legislative functions, and
controlled tho judicial tribunals in its arbitrary
direction to the aflairs ol Slate. This party, then
as now, styled itself the Republican party. Then
as now, it not only nrrognted supreme public
control, but it assumed the right to regulate and
direct privnte and domestic affairs. Combining
all the odds anil ends of political and religious
fanaticism, Bocial reformers, agrarians, free
thinkers, placemen, Bpoils hunters, levelers,
clamorers for a division of property, advo
cates of universal suffrage, army officers, and
hangers on, it formed an aggregate under
the namo of Republican. In time this party
like all others unfounded in tho true theory and
principles ofgovemincnt, run its course, scattering
and disintegrating as the riven leaves upon the
blasts ot autumn. At one time complete master ot
the situation, and besotted with power, it madly
threw its wand away. From a sovereign rule
over tho country, that country soon became dis
gusted with its imbecilities, and repudiated its
rule. Then passion usurped the hour, society
disrupted, justice forsook its seat, security to life
and properly fled, when anarchy as a monarch
swayed his sceptre over the moral, social, and
pmitlCCT WOl'ia. Ill this chaotic night, will:
darkness around,above—nostur in all the universe
to poiut the wny—a man of destiny, ambitious
of power, steps forth to seize the uncertain reins
risking all os on the hazard ot a die. That man
was Oliver Cromwell. And yet with all his
love of power, his eyes dazzled by the jeweled
splendors of the crown, lie dared not place it on
his head, lest some thorn therein concealed might
pierce him with its fatal point.|
The protectorate proved a failure. It was
hateful to tho people. Its authority foreign
tho teachings ol their past. Tho rule of the ab
solute master w»9 impotent in the absence
force. It had no place in the hearts of tho pco
pie. His edicts were offensive to their views
propriety. In a word, the revolution that created
the necessity lor him, had passed, nnd witli
liis supremacy.
Next, with the “restoration” came the re-es
tabiishment of legitimate monarchy, and with
the return of that sentiment in which is founded
the divine right of kings to rule.
As we have said, “history repeats itself.” The
present so-called Republican party may here
trace its counterpart in history. The hnndwri
ting of its doom is already on the wall. Power
less to save the country, and appalled at the peril
to which it has ied the nation, it stands trem
tiling with its own weakness and imbecility,
may yet give the occasion for n second Crom
well, in whose usurpations we shall feel that all
is lost. Yet the people will regain self-posses
sion when the shock is past; the memory
their past will revive a love of the same institu
lions and government, and, under Democratic
ascendancy, they will be restored to their cher
ished and inalienable rights, and the Government
to the principles of constitutional liberty.

Vandalism.—An advertisement in the New
Haven Register offers a reward of $500 for the
return of a silver communion set of eleven
pieces, engraved as donated to "Zion Presbytc
rian Church, of Wintisboro’, S. C„” a silver lea
set of three pieces engraved “I. E. A.,” a min
iature breastpin an ivory, and a lady's diamond
ring engraved “J. R. A. to E. 1. 0.,’’ which
"were taken posseasion of by a soldier known
as Cupt. Fuller, supposed to belong to the 14th
corps, U. 8. A.," during the march of Gen
Sherman through South Carolina.
Aid for the South.—It is stated that the
subscribers to the English cotton famine fund
desire to appropriate their surplus funds, amount
ing to the large sum of $600,000, in gold, to the
relief of the Southern States of the American
Union. It is known but a small portion of the
fiinds would ever bo claimed by tiie subscribers
under any circumstances, and, therefore, it is
not likely that there will be any difficulty in the
way ot its suggested application. It would be
a magnificent donation.
General Sheridan.—It would seem from
Washington advices that the Cabinet strongly
disapprobato General Sheridan's administration
of affairs in liis district. We thought Philip was
getting a little too large for his trowsers, and that
it would become necessary before long to reduce
his huge proportions and put an end to his fan
tastic tricks. A dashing cavalry raider may make
a very poor administrator in civil mutters.

fled the Held somo days ago. Maynard belongs
tho Amiundab Sleek school of politicians, and
his efforts arc sometimes marked by a good deal
of forcible feebleness. lie is no match for tho
able, eloquent and fearlesa Etheridge.
A letter to the Intelligencer, dated tho 12th,
from ^tbens, McMina county, ouo of the strong
holds Of the Radical party, says:
“Emerson Etheridge nnd Horace Maynard
spoke here yesterday. Etheridge was overwhelm
ing in argument and withering In his denuncia
tions of the mischievous nnd wicked works of Rad
icalism. ijo look up Brownlow, laid bare hit
many enormities and inconsistencies, sifted him
through nnd through, until there was not much
ol tiie old sinner lelt. It was a dirty job, offen
sive lo the uperntor, and distressingly painful to
the loyal leaguers, who had gathered iu some
force to witness the demolition of the eloquent
West Teuocsscnn—a contingency which didn’t
nigh occur, much to their mortification aud dis
gust.
" Etheridge will speak at Cleveland to-day, nnd
Irom there go to West Tennessee. He proposes
to return in a short lime and canvass every coun
try in East Tennessee. In a conversation I lmd
with him he expressed himself confidently, nnd
said that ns sure as the sun shines nnd water
runs, ho will be the next Governor of Tennessee;
and I think lie will. The Radicals are very
much dispirited.
“ Tiie wheat harvest lias commenced—crop
abundaut."
Southern Organization—A Kndlenl Party.
The evidence is multiplying on every hand,
says tiie National Intelligencer, that the object of
tiie Radicals in enacting the military bills was
not to preserve order, but to use the machinery
to organize a Republican party. General Ord is
bitterly denounced because he assures tiie freed-
men that it is ol more consequence that the soil
should be tilled and crops raised than that they
should waste time on politics. Even Gen. Sheri
dan, who has done so much to further the aims
of Radicalism, i3 stroutiously denounced by the
New Orleans ultras because he will not do more.
General Pope has played into tiie bauds ot the
Mobile Radicals, to which lie was advised by
General Swaync, in removing Mayor Withers,
and in working out a state oi things there utterly
disgraceful to the American name.
Iu Virginia, General BrowD,of thcFreedinen’s
Bureau, is reported as having issued an order to
the agents of tiie Bureau, "to see that tho freed-
man is instructed in his right, (to vote,) and that
he is registered and votes." It becomes, therefore,
a duty impossed by General Brown upon his
subordinates, not only to instruct the negro, but
to exercise an absolute supervision over him,
and see that he votes. If tiie statement is cor
rect, General Howard should remove General
Brown at ohcc. But he will not do it, lor that
would be to impair the machinery by which it
is hoped the Radicals may carry the State of
Virginia. We have before said, and we repeat
it, that the President is remiss in liis duty in not
keeping the military representatives of the Gov
ernment within thestrictlimitsof thcirnuthority.
A Trip Through the Country.
Tho Southern Watchman publishes nn in
teresting letter from one of its correspondents,
from which we extract the following :
Dear Watchman : I have just completed
a “buggy trip” from Athens to Marietta aud
back to Camming. In traveling through tliu
counlry, I linve noticed that wheat is looking
fine und healthy—no rust that I have seeu, only
in two fields near Marietta, nnd it only on the
blade. 1 find on an average nearly twice the
amount of lund sown that is common. You
may say to tiie close-fisted corn seller that lie
lmd better look sharp, or he will not get to sell
ms corn quite so high un.l readily “as he heard
ho could. I see llrat corn Ims decliucd some,
and flour very materially. There is very litlte
fruit iu the comities through which I traveled.
I find considerable destitution ; a'nd, but for (lie
timely arrival of the supplies through the “Uu-
rcau” and oilier sources, there ccrtninly would
be great suffering in tiie country. There seems
W) he more in Chciokee county than any 1 have
visited, while in Jackson, Hall, Wnllon, Gwin
nett, Forsyth nnd Milton, the citizens seem in
good spirits and are getting nn comparatively
easy. From observation, I am convinced that
the privilege of “drawing” is greatly abused,
aud will cause many to slacken their efforts to
make a living by work. However, almost every
one iu making an earnest effort to make supplies
for the next year. This is rigid, inasmuch as
the “Bureau" may not have quite so many
drawers next year as this.
Plain Speaking.—The Earl ol Oxford, in
reply to the application of tiie Secretary of the
Norwich (England) Bible Society, that lie would
preside at their annual meeting, wrote as follows:
Sir:—I am surprised and annoyed at the con
tents of your letter—surprised because my well
known character should have exempted mo
Irom such an application—and annoyed, because
it obliges me to have this communication with
you. II I have long been addicted to the gam
ing table, I have lately taken to the turf. I fear
I frequently blaspheme, and 1 linve never distrib
uted religious tracts.
All this was well known to you and your soci
ety, notwithstanding which you tliink me a fit
person for your President. May your hypocrisy
be forgiven, but I would rather live iu the land
of sinners than with such saints.
Iam,&c., Oxford.
The Colf. Case.—The New York correspon
dent of the Louisville Democrat says of tiie late
Albauy shooting case:
The shooting of L. H. HiScock, a Republican
member of the constitutional convention, by a
General Cole, ol Syracuse, whose wife lie is said
to have seduced (the particulars ol which have
no doubt reached tiie Democrat by telegraph ere
tliis,) is making a deal of talk, and, as usual in
cases of this kind, parlies are already forming,
for and against the so-called injured husband.—
The whole afiair, iu many of its features, bears
a strong resemblauce to the Sickles case, and it
would not he surprising if the result, when it
conics before tiie courts, should he the same,
also; only it is to be hoped that, if the homicide
gets off with liis life, he will not be promoted,
us liis illustrious predecessor hns heeu, to the
command of a military dependency.

Into which the ten unrepresented Southern States
aro divided, have no power to remove civil offi
cers deriving their authority from tho 8tate

we understand, before thd Cabinet had more im-i

the action of the other commanders. No doubt
tho forthcoming opinion of the Attorney Gen

priety of this determination. It scarcely need
be suggested that the issuing ol orders replacing
the deposed officers, which may become nccca-
eary as n consequence of this decision ol tho
Government, would be no good ground for ap
plication on the part of General Sheridan to be
relieved from the position he bolds, much less
would it warrant the interence that the adminis

his errors. We feel authorized to say that tho
speculations of sehsational journals upon this

tiie part of either the friends or enemies of the
Government, aro wholly without foundation."
Removal of Governor Wkli.s.—The re
moval of Governor Wells does not seem to dis
tress the people of tiie Crescent City very heavily.
A late letter from there says:
General Sheridan’s order removing Governor
Wells, look our whole city by surprise. There
had been some talk ol dissatisfaction, arising
out of the recent obstructive conduct of the
Chief Magistrate, but no one believed that any
thing half so good could happen as tho decapi
tation ot his loynl Excellency. Such, however,
are the revenges which the whirligig of Time
brings in, the crooked putlis of diplomacy are
hard to travel, and the unhappy Wells is another
illustration of the insecurity of those who wnit
on princes' favors.

Pittsburg lately, adopted the following resolu
tion:
Resolved, That whilst we earnestly advocate
the doctrine of protection to home manufactures,
wc at tho same time deprecate and oppose tiie
efforts now being made to import foreign labor
to compete witli tho home laborer, and earnestly
request our repiesentalive in Congress to provide,
by legislation, a head tax on laborers.
How do the foreign-born membersof the party
like that plank in the Radical platform ?
Accident vs. Misfortune.—A Boston wit,
delluing the difference between an accident and
a misfortune, says: “If Wendell Phillips should
fall into the river, that would be an accident. If
he should ever gel out again, that would lie a
misfortune." The author of this, it is reported,
hua been appointed Secretary of Legation to Mr.
Bancroft.

died ol a fever which attacked him afrer he was

to what is lo be done with Maximilian. The
chief functionaries talk botli ways. I have just
been told that the City of Mexico was taken at

power of provisional governments be restored;
and that functionaries of provisional govern
ments will hereafter only be removed by court
martial or act ol Congress. This is tho decision
of the Cabinet, Stanton only dissenting by si
lence. The probable resignation of District
Commanders under theso reversals and restraints
was discussed. Such notion was apprehended
and deplored. The point was mado, however,
that these District Commanders were soldiers on
duty, and that however unpleasant tho duty,
they cannot abandon their posts.
