This, says the Waibiugton correspondent ot the Charleston i V»itrier, would "be a sarin* to the Qorernment oi ninety-lire tullllous n year in the military ser vice. But there is not the slightest probability Hint Congress will leare the Southern Stole* to their own police and the enforcement ol their own laws. The Radicals loreee* and will pro vide lor a state ol war between th* white people of the South, and the Radical black population that lias, by force and fraud, been placed iu power over them. Tho form of the military government will be abrogated when these States, now subject to i hem, are admitted into the Union and repre sented in Congreso, but military l»w will remain for the support and detente ol the negro Stole government end their lews end exactions. A largely iucrcascd military force will become ne cessary to carry into effect the Radical-negro legislation, and to protect negro officials in their proceedings against the property and person* of the white* •• Military government has thus fsr been com paratively mild in the South, because the freed- men had not yet attained legislative power, and because the while men ol intelligence and pro perty were still forbearing. But when the latter shall become desperate, and the former insolent and sggreesive, martial law in nil lit rigor will lie resorted to by Congress. With such men ** Brownlow and iiunnicutt in the Southern dele gations to Congress, very arbitrary legislation in relation to Southern allairs must be expected. “From these circumstance* the Northern Con servatives have been led to the opinion that Cengress would expend many millions every year in maintaining the black government# they establish in the South. It has been urged upon the people of New York, end other Northern State*, that all hope ot the restoration of South ern prosperity and of the recovery ot Southern commerce, so important to the North, must, un der such circumstances, be abandoned. If the Northern people do not yet fully appreciate this condition ol things, they will soon begin to feel its eflects. “The Radical leaders of Congress show no signs of a relaxation of their policy towards the South, but they expect to And some opposition in their ranks. Senator Thayer, in bie speech in Baltimore, the other night, declared that Con gress would take no backward atep, and that • the untoward results of elections” would not stay their hands. He said the Republicans in Congress were more earnest and determined tlian ever." Be all this as it may, the extinction ol the Freedmcu s Bureau in the South will be a great relief to both whites nod negroes. It possesses the confidence or neither race, and the sooner it is abolished, and those who havs occupied the fat offices connected with it are turned loose to seek other employment,the better for all concern ed, and especially for the Government, which it has sucked like a leech. With regard to the other speculations ot the Courier's correspondent, they were made previous to the recent elections in the North. Great changes have come over the Radical party, and radical leaders^ince then Signs ot relaxation in their policy are very appa rent now. “Who can tell what a day may bring forth?” llow It waa Dork.—The villainy of the Radi cola In the late Georgia election la without par allel In history.

The people ol the North, siieaking through the hnllot-box, have sounded the death-knell ol the Infamous parly Who, for the last two yenrs, have insulted and outraged their constituents and the sac ml trust reposed in their hands. They have proclaimed that the Government, ns administered by Washington aud Ids colmu|M)raries, must ami shall be pre served. New York has declared that this is the while mnu’s Government. New Jersey lias proclaimed that this is the white man’s Government Minnesota has proclaimed that this is the while man’s Government. Wisconsin has prselaimed Unit this is Ihc white man’s Government. Even Massachusetts has proclaimed that this is the white man’s Government—ami the "hub ol the universe"—Boston—has proclaimed that tliis is the white man’s Government by fifteen hundred majority. Tiie while people ol the North, the East aud the South have proclaimed it. And what does ull this mean ? It means that the white race is to govern the American Union. It means that the white peo ple of the South arc to govern the South. It menus that the recent eleclious of Radicals aud negroes in tiic South are a lraud audau outrage, and that the whole inlumous farce will lie ad made.

Convention met, Ac Prayer by Rev. Mr. Silsby The Georoia papers call the recent election on the Convention question in that State a "so- called reconstruction election." A Democratic victory in this State will be a real restoration election. On the morning of the New York election— Tuesday last—the New York World contained the foregoing paragraph. It is true that most ol the papers in Georgia—all, in fact, ol them who oppose the Sherman-Shellabarger reconstruction enactments, and tho military compulsory pro gramme by and through which those enactment* are to be made apparently acceptable to the peo ple of Georgia—denominate the Convention election a "so-called reconstruction election”—a phrase less objectionable and most deferential to tlioBe who have liad control and management of said election, than any other the "Georgia pa pers" could have used. Indeed the papers ol this Btate have been exceedingly tender to those who have planned, managed, and brought to close the recent “so-called reconstruction elec lion” in this State, in applying to it a term that tails fsr short of the opprobrium that should aud does, end will ever attach to it The New York World, we believe, undentond* this, and hence its significant remark—" A Democratic victory in this State (New York) WILL BE A REAL RESTORATION ELEC tion.” That victory has been achieved uoi • Shermsn-Shellsbarger-Reconstruction vic tory, but one that promises " restoration " to the Southern States of tiieir rights in the Union un der the Constitution, no other being just to these States. Give this to the South, and U ia all that she desires. She will then assume her position in the " Union,” discharging all her obligation* to it, sharing the burdens, whatever they may be, of the Government, partaking alike of it* prosperity, and ol its adversity, of its deft and of its triumphs. Tho assurance of the World, given in advance of tiro glorious Democratic vie- lory in the great Empire State of the North, that it inay lie considered as the precursor ol restora tion— that the election there was a “ real restora tion election," we hail as the harbinger of future glad tidings—ot that restoration which will re store not only the South to her rights in the Union, but |ieace anil prosperity to the whole country. IkXpceleil Ne«ro Troubles. Washington-, November 3.—It has lieen de finitely ascertained that the recent Southern elections for delegates to State Conventions w ere thoroughly discussed iu Cabinet on Friday lost, and front reliable information, in possession of the authorities here, it is apprehended that seri ous trouble between the whites mid blacks of the South may ere long occur. In view ol the pro- liability of such a result, it is, I understand, deemed advisable to increase tho mililury force iu nearly every district in the Southern Slates, especially where white incendiaries have been ut work among the negroes, urging them on to deeds of violence, as is flic case in Virginia and Louisiana, if not in other States. It is generally believed that General Grant is in favor ol providing a sufficient force to meet every possible emergency, and by virtue ot his office lie will l>o charged with the promulgation oi the necessary orders respecting tho same. It is u well known fact that the negroes of this district arc drilling nightly, ou the outskirts of the citv. and according to very reliable reports, tliov form a part ot that "reserve" which certain Radical leaders have alluded to, in speaking oi the strength of llteir party, in the event of all ot her clash ot nrras. It is gratifying to know tlmt the movements of these revolutionists are closely watched, and there is little reason to doubt their speedy sup pression, in case they should attempt a hostile demonstration in any part of file country —Cor.

As tiie time lias arrived tor sowing grain, it may not he amiss to urge upon our planters the necessity ot sowing largely ot small grain. Tiie experience ol Ihe present year, lu paying exor bitant prices ot corn to raise cotton, will, we trust, not be ullowed to pass uuheeded, and our country still more impoverished by a repetition ot that worse than false theory of political econo my. It has been clearly demonstrated, by prac tical men, that we cannot afford to raise cotton, as an articlo ot export, while labor and provi sions command their present prires, unless a corresponding price lor cotton cau he obtained. It is also clearly demonstrated by facts, greatly to the detriment of our section, that tbe cotton raised iu the South no longer controls the prices of the staple in tiie European markets. The production ol cotton lias been stimulated iu tbe British Provinces, until at least two-thirds of the supply demanded is drawn trom them ; and the article produced is almost equal in tex ture to that raised in the Southern States.

A House-Car Incident.—A horse ear is the witness of varied life and incident, which are often not only Interesting, but worthy the com pliment of h little printer s Ink. An incident oc curred in Boston a short while since which is deserving of ft paragraph. A lady passenger discovered that her pocket had been picked of its porteuinnnuie and contents, including a gen erous supply of cash for shopping and some oilier pleasant possessions. On learning this disagreeable fact, she said, with commendable umpnasis: “Mr. conductor, I have bad my pocket picked since I entered this car, and, a* no one lias got out, Hie thiet must now lie here.— I want you to call in a policeman at once and secure my propcrty. ,r The conductor, in a slow, drawling tone, replied: “ I guess mum, that none of the passengers have got it—you might have dropped it in the street; midi tilings are very common; it wouldn't be any use to call the police. These passengers all look honest, and they would make a tremendous fuss it 1 shut them up'.” Tiie lady: “ But I insist upon it; I have had my portemonnaie in my hand since I entered it. 1 insist that the jolice be called; it is my right, and I demand t.” At tliis point a short lady, with u keen, umping eye, and with a brisk movement, aimosl ' ieaped Iroin tier seat, and said sharply: “ 1 de clare, it is really too had Ibul the coaductor will not call the police. If there is no gentleman iu the car that is man enough to do as the lady wishes, then I will." She thereupon made u rapid exit from the car, and shot down the street like an arrow. She was tiie pick pocket. A Wonderful Freak of Nature.—From a gentleman conversant with the facts we learn ol one of Ihose woudcrlul Ireaka ot nature which sometimes occur most unaccountably.— The present ease i* one that our medical gentle- int-n sin mid investigate, a* it Certainly partakes ol the vvmidcrlol. It is a subject lor scientific investigation, to usci rliiiu tiie causenl so curious and genuine a freak "I nature. About lour days ago a colored woman living on the Louisville Road, about two luilca hum the city, was sit-zed with piiius ot labor, and soon nllerwiirds became a mother—not of a child, hut ol three. Two of the iuliinto are black as ebony, and the other, curlmi* to relate is while as the purest Caucasian. The woman herself is very black, as is ulso her Imslmnd, we understand. Our informant did not make a note of her name at the time, aud was unable to luniish it to us, ut present. The facts are vouched for by a gentleman well known in our city, who saw tliu iiilanis, und who came Iroiu the place yesterday, aud gave us the tacts. Here is u chance for lt irnuiii.

The corporal had lo yield to the force of ar gument. and wade into‘the lailhful si utinnl, who rejoined, “the bloody tide bus almost drowned ntc." Ltutir Breaking.—Senator Patterson, of New Hampshire, a Radical Republican, is lie ginning to crawfish. In a late speech at Boston he said: “That the obsliuacy of the rebels forced ns to give the ballot of tliu negroes, as the ouly altern ative to keeping a standing army in every Southern town. . But, while u strong ndvocateuf impartial suffrage, he said he did not favor man hood suffrage except through manhood educa tion. It might do in New England, lint it will not do for California, with her ninety thousand Chinamen. He would not have suffrage exer cised by Indians or Aztees, anil lie believed Hint the man who is lo help govern a nation needs intelligence in order to properly discharge tiie duties vested in his suffrage.

Bchofleld replied to tbe protest ol the defeated Conservative candi dates against the extension of time oi voting and fraud in the late election here. A* to exten siou, he says it was clearly tiie intent of Congress that polls should bo kept open until ull vote, bad keen polled, aud this finds precedent in tbe laws ol Virginia. Iu regard to illegal voting, he says that he can only investigate that when reg. islering officers make returns to him, and he promises to submit the claims of the defeated candidates to the Convention when it meets, and give both parties his assistance in discovering any frauds which have been practised. As to the polls being kept open longest where the black vote heaviest, he says it is sufficient, to say they were kept open until all votes were polled, he con cludes thus that threats, iutimUlalion, uud actual violence in more than one instance were as you alleged, resorted to liy the blacks, to control tbe votes of persona ot ihelr own race, is no doubt true. Whether the effect was to change any considerable number ol votes, it may be difficult to determiue but it is certainly a legitimate sub ject lor investigatiou, and if it appear that such has been the object, it will be just ground for contesting (he election.
