We invito the attention of our city readers to
tiio notice which appears in our advertising col
umns, from the Boaiu* or Registration ap
pointed for litis city, under tlio Reconstruction
acts of Congress, from which they will perceive,
that the Hooks or Registration will ho opened
ior the First Ward of tills city on Monday
next at the City Hall, and continue open for live
consecutive days in order to cnablo the residents
of that ward, qualified to do so, to register their
names. Duo notico will ho given for registration
in the second and other city wauls.
By this notico for registration in lids city, mu-
ple timo is given tor every individual in tho 1 irst
Ward, who is qualified to register, to do so—and
so we nro assured it will he in tho oilier wards.
Nevertheless, let there he no dolay in registering
ou the part of any one of our citizens who is not
disfranchised ! Let all such in tho First Ward
register on Alouday if they can; if not, ou Tiles
day. " Delay breeds danger,” and delay in this
matter may deprive one of the privilege of suf
frage. ^

We had the pleasure of a visit on yesterday
from an old and highly esteemed friend, Con. E.
P. Watkins, whose return from Honduras to
this city, was recently announced in theso col
umns. The Colonel's health, we are gratified
lo state, has been wonderfully improved by Ills
trip to Honduras. To his many friends in tills
State this will be pleasing intelligence.
AVo take occasion hero to add, that Col. AVat
kins' report of his travels and observations in
Honduras, is in process of publication in pain
pblet form, and will be before the public in a few
days.
Tho AI»orn©J -«enerar» Opinion—The New
York Herald Threatens
In a previous article we referred to, and com
mented upon, the threats of the New York
Tribune, directed at the President, because, in
the exercise ol one of his clearest prerog
atives, lie had thought proper—in our judg
ment, wisely and patriotically—to require from
the law officer of the Government, his legal
opinion ou the reconstruction acts of Congress.
No one doubts, or can doubt, that had that offi
cer of the Government rendered an opinion sus
taining Air. Greeley’s views in regard to the Con
gressionai reconstruction enactments, all would
have been right with tho Tribune and the" Radi
cal Republican Party" that paper represents
President Joiinson, in such event, would have
been lauded for having required the legal opin
ion of Air. Stanbcrry, especially if ho had then
as he intends now to do, determined with the
approval of liis Cabinet, to enforce the rccon
etruction measures, in accordance with that opin
ion. “ Circumstances, however, alter cases,'
and the Tribune threatens the President xvith a
“ July Congress,” and calls upon that body, in
the most imperious manner to assemble forth
with, and wreak its vengeance -upon the Chief
AIngistrate of the nation—for nation, the once
“ United States of America” has recently been
decreed. Following the lead of the Tribune
the New York Herald denounces Air. Stanberry'
opinion, and the President, of course, for having
invoked it, and the Cabinet lor presuming, with
tho President, to acquiesce in it. In an elubo
rate article denunciatory of the Attorney Gene
ral’s opinion, it endeavors to show that recon
struction is to bo defeated by legal quibbles—
that the country lias the “ President’s platform
in the two opinions” of tho law officer of
the Government—and that “above all, it is
clear that reconstruction cannot go forward
until tee hate, another Exeeutiee." Accord
ing to the Tribune Congress must convene
in July to remedy the evil complained of; and
according to the Herald, Congress must give thn
• — —Fereeutire. of pnnran Im
peachment and deposition ol the present incuni
bent, for we can drnw no oilier conclusion from
the Herald's article. AVell, be it so! Let Con
gress assemble and let it do the work of deposing
the President, or any other work, which, in its
fanatical fury it may enact shall be done, and
will the country be any better off than it is now —
will its financial, commercial, manufacturing, or
other important interests, be improved—will re
construction itself be any nearer than it is now ?
Alore than all this, will the new, the temporary
Executive give any more stability to the Govern
ment, or strength to the party in poieer than
now enjoys? AVe opine not, and aro fully con
firmed in the belief that theso threats ol the Tri
lune and Herald are only designed to intimidate
Congress which will never dare, daring as that
body lias been, and Radical as it is, to proceed
to such extreme measures—measures that would
convulse the whole North and West and bring
about in all probability, at an earlier day than
lias been expected, that political revolution
which must come, and which, when it doe9
come, will hurl from power the party that has
exercised it, for two years past, only to abuse
AVlth all the recklessness, or radicalism, that lias
characterized the present Congress, we venture
the prediction that it will never venture as far
the ’Tribune and Herald seem to desire. Indeed
' such has been the course of the last named
journal, that wo would be surprised, if it were
not amoog the first oi Northern journals to de-
nounce what it now recommends, should Con
i gress heed its suggestions.

Much anxiety prevails relative to the fate ol
1 the unfortunate Afaximilian. It pervades every
I intelligent community, and information concern

MR Alexico, and her distracted people. Tho last
,■. notice of his probable fate, which lias the ap

lowing from the AVashiugton City correspondent
of the New Y T ork World. AVe give It as we find

attempts on the purl of royal adventurers or fill!
busters from Europe, to interfere in the aflairs of

Tho New York Herald says that tho effort to
establish a Radical prcAi In the South docs not
appear to ho crowned with success, and that the
reason 1b that "11 oro arc not enough Radicals in
tho Southern cities to support a parly Journal
decently.
They havo had to rely on alms and adver
tising from the North, and tliu Republican
Committee lmve so much to pay in tho way
of postage lor confiscation speeches Hint they
cannot grant subsidies to semi-strangulated Gaily
papers. Hence says Bennett;
Newspaper enterprise in that section (the
South), ns elsewhere, will havo to stand upon
Its own bottom. If Radical journalism is popu
lar tlicro it will 1)0 sustained; it not, it cannot
be bolstered up by contributions from any quar
ter. A press which is not in harmony with tho
honest and intelligent sentiment of the commu
nity among which it circulates, and is not based
upon a sounder foundation than foreign aid, is
no better than an excrescence, ll has novitali-
and can exercise no substantial influence,
rom these facts we argno that the effort to sus
tain a class of newspapers in the South upon
charitable principles is unhealthy, and will not
amount fo anything.

AVo copy the following communication from
tho Clicrokco Georgian:
Mr. Editor: I have just finished taking Hie
census of Dalton, and find tho present popula
tion to lie 1,852, of which 000 are whites and
363 blacks.
At the surrender the population was alarm COO.
Tho increase has been about 752. Of this num
ber about 225 are old returned citizens, mid 527
new ones, which latter are of the very best class
of people. .
Before the war Dalton had a population ol
about 2,000. Site lias not arrived at lier old
number, but is rapidly doing so.
Since the surrender over 80 new bouses have
been put up, at a cost of about $98,000, and old
houses have been repaired at an expense ol about
$80,000. This makes an aggregate of $128,000
spent on the town in solid improvements. OI
the new houses 39 are business houses.
Town lots have increased from 30 to -10 per
cent, in value since the surrender.
The Trustees of the Georgia Memorial Associa
tion having selected Dalton as the place for the
Confederate Cemetery, Gen. Dutf Green, with
his usual generosity, tendered them that beauti
ful hill East of Alonument street and Southeast
of Col. Broyles’, lor said purpose, which has
been accepted. The trustees and ladies of
Dalton design making it the ornament ns well as
the pride of the city. There are sonic three or
four thousand Confederates to have a resting
ilace here. The preparation tor bo large a mini-
)er will involve the expenditure of several thou
sand dollars.
AVheu the Dalton & Gadsden Railroad is com
pleted, aud the political condition ol the country
is settled, which will bring money into llie coun
try, Dalton, from her past two years' improve
ment under the most adverse circumstances, tins
a bright prospect ahead of her.

Geriut S.utTii on Confiscation.—AVe re
marked some time- ago that if confiscation should
be commenced in the South it would end in the
North. This view of the matter is taken by
Hon. Gerrit Smith, who, in a letter just publish
ed, says:
“Confiseatiou once entered upon, il will be
difficult, if not impossible, to set limits to the
spread of its demoralizing power. The spirit of
lawless greed engendered by confiscation will no
more stop at State or other lines than will the
flames of a prairie fire at the word of command.
Let there be confiscation in the South lor the
benefit of these, Air. Stevens' loyal losers, and
also for tho benefit of the poor blacks, as lie pro
poses ; and very soon, under the debauchln
tlueuce, immense numbers at the North will be
clamoring in the name of “ Agrarianism,”
‘Equalization,” aud other taking names, lor their
neighbors’ possessions. And these rich posses
sions, it must be remembered, will kindle the
spirit of robbery, as can uone of the poor pos
sessions of the desolated South.
AVe are tired, however, of this senseless cry
about confiscation. There is no party in tho
North which favors it, and it is only used by
Southern radicals to frighten timid people from
their propriety.
Truth well Stated.—It is not often that
we find the truth from a Radical source so treoly
admitted, and well atntcO, t* ta to me toiioiv-
lug from the New A'ork Times:
“ It is impossible that tho whites and the blacks
of the South should be mustered into opposition
camps politically, without a consequent hostility
in all the relations of life. Their only hope lies
in harmony of sentiment, based ou a conviction
ol harmony of interest. And the systematic cru
sade which is now going on, and which tcmlsdi-
rectly to a disturbance of these relations, may
well cause disquiet and resentment to the whites
in the Southern States.”
The proposition stated by the Times is patent
to every thinking mind, aud yet hero in the
South are men, some ol them born upon the
soil, who, that they may climb into place and
power for a season, aro laboring day and night
among the blacks to precipitate the very comli
tion which the Now A’ork organ deprecates.—
They will no doubt reap their reward in duo
time.
A Financial Policy.—Mr. Colgate, of AVall
street lias addressed a letter to the Assistant
Treasurer at New A’ork, urging tile adoption of
a stable finaucial policy, suggesting
“ Tlie substitution of legal tender notes for Iho
national bank notes, the Treasury to purchase
the bonds deposited as security at a premium,
and assume the payment of the outstanding
notes, the latter to be deducted from the price of
the bonds, and to be exchanged for greenbacks
on presentation. The reduction of the paper
circulation, four millions per month, beginning
Alay 1, 1808, until the outstanding volume is re
duced to the minimum ol five hundred mil
lions, exclusive of fractional currency. This
would continue the contraction until about
1872.”
Some such measure us this will, it is said he
brought forward at tho next session of Con
gress.
Savannah.—AVo clip the paragraph below
from the Savannah Republican:
Many complaints are daily made to us about
the newsboys not I icing energetic enough every
morning. The reason is very apparent—it lies
with the framers of the city ordinance which for
bids the newsboys from crying their papers, to
warn people of the coming of the news. At the
same time we are awakened every morning, like
the early worm, by the outrageous shrieks of
ubiquitous individuals, crying stale huckleberries,
colicy plums, and sour milk. When will reason,
consistency and justice enter into the ordinance,
reverse the order of arrangements, and give our
citizens nn opportunity to buy the early news,
and tho poor boys a privilege ol earning the price
of their daily bread ? The newsboys’ cries are
halt the vitality ol a city, and we are in favor of
abolishing nothing which tends to promote mo
notony. Let the newsboys have their rights os
well as the peddlers.
Lonostueet's Letter.—Tho New Orleans
correspondent of the Charleston Courier refers
to the last letter of General Longstrcct, and
says:
For the last two days our people have done
little hut talk over tho remarkable letter of Gen
eral Longstreet, published in the New Orleans
Republican of the 5th. You have doubtless re
ceived a copy of it, and will lay it before your
readers It is highly important, I think, that
every one should read it carefully, und give il
grave reflection, for I doubt not that it is a trum-
pet-note sounding warning of the wide defection
we may soon expect from hundreds who have
lost heart and hope under the pressure of long
calamity, to which there seems no end. They
are not weary who, despite the frowns of for
tune, can possess their souls in patience, and keep
their faith in God.
Death.—Henry II. Scranton, an old and high
ly enterprising citizen of Savannah, died In that
city on AVednesday. Before the war he was a
member of the firm of Bcranton & Norris, and
agent tor Scranton & Tallman's line oi sailing
packets between this port and New York. He
served us a Captain in the Sixty-Third Georgia
Regiment, under the command of Colonel Geo.
A. Gordon, during the late war, and slnco then
has been connecled with the seventl steamship
lines in the capacity of Purser.
It is stated that the paper money now in use
in Italy was made in the United Btutes. This
country Iisb certainly acquirefi a wide-spread
reputation a9 a successful manufacturer of paper
currency.

Rhode Island statistics show a far greater pro
portion of deaths than of births among the color
ed people, and tho Springfield Republican be
lieved that unless Urn colored race throughout
New Enginud nro replenished from immigration
from life South tho negroes in that section will
soon disappear. In New York Stale Urn nogro
population decreased 078 from 1855 to 1800, and
•1,297 from i860 to 1805.
Commenting upon the facts stated above, the
Now York Repress says:
These liliodo Island and Now A'ork statistics
nro made far more apparent in tho Southern ami
late border States, where the negroes nro dying
with fearful rapidity, and especially tho younger
children. The neglect of tho infants by then-
colored parents seems not otdy unnatural but
monstrous, and those who know, declare that
among what nre called bruto animals, from thn
lion to the monkey, and from Iho cow to the cat,
there is infinitely more euro of their young than
among the negroes ol the Soul It. In a state ot
slavery, whatever the wrongs of the institution,
there was shown nt least a proper care of the
young from Llie timo they canm into tho world
until they could take earn of themselves. The
freed men, in the absence n( the old supervision
ot themselves and their labors, strangely and
shamefully neglect lids duty. In the formeron.se
the care may havo grown out of selfish conside
rations respecting the future slave—but one would
suppose tho natural iustlnctsot a mother aud the
proper aflectious of a father would nt least prove
equal to Iho interests of the slaveholder. It
is not so, however, and since the war thou
sands and tens of thousands have died from
neglect nt thn South. Gen. Grant, nearly two
yours since, estimated the reduction in the slave
population ns equal to nearly twenty-five per
cent. This was caused by the war; but the
mortality is still immense, and in all human
probability will continue. Education and in
creased civilization may diminish the extra
ordinary number of deaths, hut they will go on,
in undue proportion to the whites, and until, as
many believe, the whole black race will become
nearly extinct. Should the war of races not he
avoided, which the present political tendency
of things is to bring on, the time for the ex
tinction of llie colored race will be hastened.—
(living the freed negro in his present state the
right of suffrage, or placing him in the jury box
and in the school house with white children, will
not prevent the great laet oi llie broad diflercnce
which exists between the two races. Many in
telligent Republicans already see this, and one
of the leading minds among them, a day or two
past declared to ns that it is morally and physi
cally impossible for the two races to live togeth
er in the equal enjoyment of the same political
rights.
The Indians.—A letter from Colorado to the
Chicago Iribune, says
Tlie Indians are reported to be forming in
large parties and scouring the country, and
rumors of outrages in every part Were heard by
Captain Stover and his companions as they
passed over the route. It was stated that Hie
Indians at. present in arms were early expecting
large rc-inloreements from the tribes of the
North; that the Cheyennes lind promised to
join them in a body, and that when this aid arrives
it is intended to sweep everything before them
and drive the “white man” out of the country—
nothing else than which will satisfy them. They
are particularly savage against the telegraph,
which they look upon as an innovation t hat
cannot be tolerated, and have sense enough to
know that it threatens the speedy settlement ot
whites all along its track. They are reported
to have torn down the wires lor a considerable
distance, and to have carried the wire many
miles away, so that tho workers cannot recover
it when they come to repair the damages.
Treason and Traitors.—The Press, Athens,
Tennessee, says :
Examine the newspapers and speeches ot
Radicals, aud listen lo their conversation, and
you will find that treason consists in opposing
Radicalism, and that every man' is a traitor who
is not a Radical. They have no other concep
tion of treason or traitors. A’ou never hear one
ol them charge the Conservatives with unfaith
fulness to the Constitution, which is in fact, the
only way in which treason can possibly be com
milted. “Show me a man," said Ben Wade,
"who prates of the Constitution, and I will show
yon a traitor !" That is tho spirit of the whole
party. Traitors themselves, they, endeavor to
charge their own guilt upon others. It is the
old trick ol the scamp with stolen goods in his
possession, shouting “Stop thief!” at the top of
his voice.

Burnt Them Up.—A Northern print tells the
following;
A,. oU U.Ij. liri„K In n lug In,,... rcunciu
Leimwuo county, Michigan, having been long
subscriber to tins New A’ork, Tribune, had pa
pered the walls of the house with the old copies
Latterly she became disgusted with Mr. Greeley'
conduct in the Jell. Davis case, and determined
to riil her premises of the souvenirs of her form
er confidence. So she set fire to tho papers on

bor, Mr. R. T. Miller, was badly burned in sav
ing her life, and in a lew minutes there was noth
ing left ol her house but the bare blackcne
walls.
Mil Stevens' Confiscation Scheme.—The
Springfield Republican, speaking of the recent
letter ol Thnddens Stevens, says:
We know now exactly what Tluul. Stevens
means by a “mild confiscation.” lie wants
enough to pay lor tho damage done to his iron
works and the hay and fencing stull used up by
llie rebels in Pennsylvania. Congress, lor two
seasons, has been “ indillerent to these suffer
ings,” and the irascible Pennsylvanian lias been
chafing and fretting all the while, but never be
lore disclosed Iho deep secret of Ids griet. Let
Mr. Stevens make out his hill for damages, and
something shall he done about it.
Defamation.—John Bailey, a veteran soldier
in the United States army, was last week turnc
out ol a situation in the Quartermaster's Depart
ment at Nashville, because he had said : This
government lias been in the hands of better men
than it is at present"—"George Washington
and General Jackson were better men than Abe
Lincoln, aud they approved of institutions of
which Abe Lincoln did not." This was called
“ defamation of Congress and President Lin
coin."
A Suggestion.—Referring to the movement
lo erect a monument in Atlanta to the memory
of the “lamented Lincoln," the Macon Telegraph
says:
As it would save llie salary of an architect,
and some delay in getting up the work, w
would suggest that the Association make pur
chase ol the remains of the old Georgia Railroad
Hank, and let them stand as they arc. As
monument they would lie both conspicuous and
appropriate.
The Attempt upon the Life of the
Czar.—A Paris letter says:
“ l am told that the young Pole has had two
ol his brothers executed lor political olfenscs
Poland. The Empress, when the event was told
her, with this last circumstance added, iustcad
of receiving the news with any excitement of
manner, turned her head away and said, “ Poor
young man! poor young utan I"
Moke Changes.—The Georgian, Dalton 1
says:
Air. AVhithorn, who had been appointed agent
of the Freedman's Bureau at this place, has, w

nin counties, and Captain It. T. Finney fills llie

G. \V. Selvidge, resigned.
Some Beard.—A Western paper tells us of
German in Chicago who wears a beard reaching
below his knees, nlthough ho is nearly six (cot
high. He is a good deal troubled iu walking
lest be should step on it, and really docs not
know what to do with ij. Why does he not
wrap it up in his ears?—they must he long

Hellish.—Air. D. W. Moore, of Alleghany

Democratic Convention of that State lost week
said : “ If hell were deprived ol Catau, and Ste

l)u. Butler.—Thu Providence Press proposes

TnE following passage from the New Orleans

Gen. LongstrOet’s cocoontit: “Since the puMP
cation of bis letter to Mr. Barker the more

him ns a very sultablo candidate for the position

little doubt among them that full pardon and
amnesty will bo granted him by Congress im
mediately upon convening another session."
EunorKAN Flour.—Flour is coming from
Europo to New York, and is sold there at lower
