Mkktivi at tiik Exchange. —Yesterday a meeting of citfeeiis-was held at the Exchange, the object being, as nearly ns we could discover, the discussion of the present state of the country and the relations of the citizens of Georgia to the General Govern ment. etc. There seems to be a desire on the part of certain ones to keep some of the pro ceedings quief. but tve propose to give, out evening edition, a sketch of whatever of importance was done. Brßoi.Aß* Aboit —Two Stokes Entered and Robbed.— On the night of Thursday last, the store of Mr. E. Tachauas, on Broughton street, east of the “Apothecaries Hall,” was entered and robbed. The thieves entered the yard of the premises through the back door of the store, which consists of a oue-und-a-half inch white pine frame, with panels and lights; an auger was used and one of the panels ot the door removed, and the following property was taken from the store: Thirteen black coats, twenty-three pairs cassimere pants, two pieces of long cloth, two boxes of shoes, two boxes of paper collars—the whole amount valued at • ix hundred dollars. On the same night the store of Col. Pres dee, south side of Broughton street, adjoining Brantley’s Drug store, was also visited ; the thieves in this case removed or broke a pad lock of the iron grating in the lane, in the rear of the store ; they removed three boxes of Navy tobacco, and they left at the door two chesty of tea, and a case of wine, which goods would have followed the tobacco, had ndt the thieves become scared.

Let all go Who desire a good Saturday night s enter tainment. Tiie Exclusion of the Reporters. —The following is an extract from the record of the court in relation to the exclusion of reporters on the first day of the trial of the assassins : ‘The Judge Advocate stated to the commis sion that the reason for the rule excluding reporters from the press admission to the room in which the commission wgs sitting, applied only to the testimony given yester day, (first day,) which it was jstill desirable should not be disclosed to the public. He, however, thought the testimouy hereafter introduced might be given to the public with out any impropriety or any embarrassment to the Government. He, therefore, suggested that the President of the commission be au thorized to grant permits of the admission of sneb proper persons, reporters of the press and others as could be admitted to the room without inconvenience to the members of the commission.” An English Estimate of Mr. Lincoln's Character.—'The following extract from a private letter of a prominent English gentle man to a corespondent in jjew York sfiows tb"* ~‘‘ r of Mr. Lincoln was under i cod by the fries U of true liberty in England: •‘Loudon, May J, 1865. “Whilst I heartily congratulate you on the approaching termiuafon of the desolating war which during tour years has inflicted so much injury on yourselves and on all other nations w **b which your country is connected; whilst I rejoice with you over the certain des- TxucUon ot accursed slavery, which, come what may, must now be soou accomplished, I sympathise with you all from the bottom of «LT.V n ,gri ef at the dreadful loss which the l lilted btates and all the world have sustained by the cruel and cowardly assassination of your Chief Maglstrate-the good, the honest,the able,the most conscien tious Lincoln. In this letter I have alreadv named Cobden and it has struck me that i! several essential points these two great men were similar characters. Both so kind u 0 gentle, so firm, and yet so devoid of angrv feeling; single-minded, so unselfish, so patri «tK in the true sense of the word, so devoted to the cause of the world's improvement and happiness. Well, they haye both fbi#ght and won the great fight, and Lincoln, with Cob den, will five forever in the brightest pages of history—-immortally fixed in the foremost ranks of the great and gopd amongst men.” the axnVaii Parade of the fire DE PARTM E XT. The effect of the Grand Annual display of the Fire Department was sadly marred yes terday by the thunder shower which came up at the very moment when the parade should have been at its height of beaut}-. The shower was a most untoward one, and, much as we welcome the rain, we would have preferred to wait an hour or two for it. But before the rain came up, while the “gathering of the clans” was going on, we bad an opportunity of noticing aud admiring the neat and tasteful uniforms, and the man ly bearing of the odicers and members of the various companies. The parade was held uuder the auspices of the Savannah Fire Department. The various companies on parade and re view were delayed in forming the line beyond four o’clock. All the companies with Mana gers, being present at five o'clock Christopher C Cusey, Chief Fireman, assisted by Francis Blair, Second Chief Fireman, ordered the line inmotiou. It passed down South Broad to East Broad, through East Broad to Bay Street, up Bay Street to the City Exchange, where the Department was reviewed by the City Authorities. VYe annex the following list of companies, said companies being composed of entirely colored citizens. Warren Fire Cos. No. I—IOA men, with Hose truck; uniform, white pants, blue shirt, red breast; Manager, H. D. Headman Pulaski Fire Cos. No. 2.-85 men, with Hose Truck; uniform, white pants and shirts trimmed with blue, and glazed caps; Managers, F. Gloseaud aud Nathaniel Lovell. Franklin Fire Cos. No. 3.—At this parade their engine, from Smith, New York, was in excellent order, as also their Hose carriage; over one hundred men were on the drag ropes; their uniform of white pauts and shirts, trimmed with red, attracted much at tention. The Manager of this company is Mr. David Bailey. Tomochi Fire Cos., No. 7, at present using Engine of Neptune Fire Cos., No. 4,their own apparatus being laid up for repairs, 65 men with hose truck. Managers, John Ryan, Wm. S. McFarland. Wright’s Fire-Engine Cos., No. 11, 65 men with hose truck; uniform, white pants, blue coats, glazed caps. Managers, Jacob F. Doe. The Hospital Than-scrift is the name of a spicy little sheet published at Hilton Head, S.*C., by Mr. M. J. McKenna. It contains a summary of the latest news, interesting local items and a well-selected miscellany. This miniature newspaper will doubtless go to the homes of many of the soldiers in the Hospital a9 a souvenir of their stay in the Department of the South. We wish the publisher and editor all success in his enter prise. Speculative Philanthropy. —One other great advantage of the Freedmen’s Bureau will be that it will close the business opera tions of a parcel of lazy philanthropists, who now regard the poor contraband as then stock-in-trade. They turn from the working associations that have labored for the practi cal benefit of “Uuele Tom,” ar»d get up some neat little philanthropichnaehine which they can run for individual profit. They want to keep the old darkie miserable, that they can play upon his miseries “like a harp of a thousand strings,” and will not let him stir from the waters of Babylon, that they can set his tears tQ song, “Poor Tom’s a-eold,” js their Shaksperean stereotyped cry. They don't >vapt Uncle Tom converted into a well-clothed, indus trious laborer, Jiving in a neat tenement, with a door-plate inscribed “Thomas.” But they want to keep him and his associate freed people houseless, tattered and dependent while they fill their own pockets with the alms extorted from the charitable. What a pity that the draft 13 over, for these rascals should have been made to enter the ranks— perhaps they would have preferred the regi meptal band?, where they could have blown their own trumpets, They know how— tgrrespondenep In-the Boston Jour nal. The Beauties of Prize Fiohtjng.— A newspaper correspondent describes the scene daring the recent prize fight between Davis and Dunn: During the transpiration of the rounds as described above, the scene was terrific. To a novice it was horrible. From a fine saljpw potuplexion the sharply cbt features of Davis became goj-y with blood; his forehead was one great Wister, purple and blue, from which, in an instant, betweeu the rounds, the lance drew suppuration, aud the seconds went through the disgusting process of suck ing out the blood. His lips were cut until they looked like the tagged edges of a beet steak, las nose was battered down to a dead level wjth Jijs cheek bones, his eyes w'-re quite grown ovpr by the distended and hor nble brjjisea which grew from many gashes; hie throat and body were liyid in many pin! ces; yet, like the terrible spectre of Banuuo which they raise in theatres, he groped hi’s way about the ring, exuding a ehower of blood at every expiiation- “Thud ! thud !” went the crashing blows, aimed always at his gory eyes,and in the wrestles they fell heavi ly, rising in the arms of their seconds to be Oarrit'd to their porches breathless, sponged and faffßei}' 4J)c] roused to uew butchery at the inexorable p#ll qf “jimp,” Davis iu the ring ditjjjnot (compare with Dunn; the latter was born for a pugilist ; the former has passed Wa fighting days; yet Day s d»d bravely, or better safd gamely, and once or twice did splendid execution- He was tbp best wrestler of the two, blit too charitable ivvice he could have beaten Dunn ievopejy. but spared him with more than pugilistic chivalry.

The Washington correspondent of the Bos ton Advertiser says: “Occupying an ordinary and common-place position in one of the show cases in the large hall of the Patent Office is one little model which in ages to come will be prized as at once one of the most curious and one of the most sacred relic 9 in that vast Museum of unique and priceless tilings. This is a plain and simple model of a steamboat roughly fashiot e 1 in wood by the hand of Abraham Lincoln. It bears date, in 1849, when the inventor was known simply as a successful lawyer and rising politician of central Illinois. N. itler his practice nor his politics took up so much of his time as to prevent him from giving much attention to contrivances which he hoped might be of benefit to the world and of profit to himself. “The design of "his invention is suggestive of one phase of Abraham Lincoln's early life when he went up and down the Mississippi as a flatboatman, and became familiar with some of the dangers and inconveniences at tending the navigation of the Western riv ers. It is an attempt to make it an easy Matter to transport vessels over shoals aud snags and sawyers. Tiie main idea is that of an apparatus resembling a noseless bellows, placed on each side of the hull of the craft just below the water line, and worked by an odd but complicated system of ropes, valves and pulleys. When the keel of the vessel grates against the sand or obstruction these bellows are to be filled with air—and thus buoyed up, the ship is .expected to float lightly and gaily over the shoal which would otherwise have proved a serious intefruptio n tq her voyage. “The model, which is about eighteen or twenty inches long, and has the air of having been whittled with a knife out of a shingle and a cigar box, is built without auy elabora tion or ornament, or an extra apparatus be yond that necessary to show the operation of buoying the steamer over the obstructions. Herein it differs from very many of the mo dels which share with it the shelter of the immense halls of the Patent Office, and which are fashioned with wonderful uicety and exquisite finish, as if much of the labor and thought aud affection of a lifetime had been devoted to their construction. This is a model of a different kind, carved as one might imagine a ret red rail-splitter would whittle, strongly but not smoothly, and evi dently made with a view solely to convey, by the simplest possible means, to the minds of the patent authorities, an idea of the pur pose aud plan of the simple invention. The label on the steamer’s dick informs us that the patent was obtained—but we do not learn that the navigation of the Western rivers was revolutionized by this quaint con ception. The modest little model has re posed here sixteen years, aud since it found its resting place here on the shelf the shrewd inventor has found it his task to guide the ship of state over shoals more perilous and obstructions more obstinate than any pro phet dreamed of when Abraham Lincoln wrote his bold autograph on the prow of this miniature steamer,” ' Thnrtovr Weed on President Lincoln’s Cabinet* LFrom the Tribune.] This statement (by T. W.,) we are confi. dent does great injustice to the memory of ■our late President, clearly implying that he was induced, after lie reached Washington, to lorego the purpose he had previously cherished of inviting Unionists who had not supported his election to a seat in his Cabinet. Mr. Lincoln, upon his receipt of Alexander H. Stephen*’ first great Union speech, in Georgia, near the close of 1860, wrote him from Springfield a letter, wherein he offered him, nay pressed upon him, a choice of all the positions within the President’s gift, Mr. Stephens, when he received tliis letter, had yesolyed to “go with his State,” and so declined the trustful proffgr. After he reached Washington, Mr. Lincoln offered a seat in bis Cabinet to Hon. John A. Gilmer, ot North Carolina, who likewise de clined it. We believe he made similar proff ers to other eminent Beil-Everett Unionists of the South but with like result. I am not likely to do “great injustice to the memory of our late President” by statements ancj explanations by himself, provided these statements apd explanations are proper in themselves, and submitted seasonably. The statement of the Tribune relating to Mr- 4- H- Stephens, is a surprise. Mr. Lincoln conversed very freely wpp me op the subject of Ins Cabinet, at Springfield, but neither then nor subsequently was the name of Mr. Stephens mentioned in that conver sation. In our conversations, in reply to my ear nest advocacy of Union mc-n in slave States for the Cabinet, Mr. Lincoln expressed hi 9 fears that op questions likely to arise, such uieu cqulti not be relied upon. There were, I insisted, two exceptions, viz: Andrew Johnson and John M. Botts. Mr. Lincoln concurred with me in believ ing Mr. Johnson reliable, both against rebel lion and slavery, and nearly or quite decided to invite him into the Cabinet. Mr. Lincoln decided, not at Washington, but in Springfield, to offer a seat to Mr. Gilmer, and I was the bearer of this letter to Mr. Gilmer. The letter (which Mr. Lincoln read to me) inquired the views entertained by Mr. Gilmer Hpon tjie questions likely to vex the Gqyermfient. Mr Gilmers reply (which he also read to me 1 ) was quite satis factory; but subsequently, when the “Bor der State Question” arose In Congress, Mr. Gilmer changed his ground, and then in formed Mr. Lincoln that he could not favor a “coercive policy.” This miserable delusion not only left Mr. Gilmer and others out of the Cabinet but took them out of the Uuion But pot so with Mr. Johnson. He never hesitated about using “coercion" when nec essary sq maintain the Government and pre serve the Union, ' ' 1 T- W The Emioration to the South.— While there is a great deal of talk about the Mexi can emigration scheme, the departure of hundreds of persons from the North to the cities of the South goes steadily and quietly on.

World.] W HAT CAX BE DONE FOR THE SOUTH! All the powerful reasons for fighting through the late expensive war to keep the South in the Union, are equally strong rea sons lor making the South prosperous now ' that we have succeeded. The grand reason of the nest for fighting was commonly con densed into a single sentence, viz., that the West would never relinquish its right to the Mississippi. The Mississippi is valuable only as affording a cheap and commodious route to a market. Wiiat market ? Not mainly the West Indies; for the consumption of western products is comparatively small in those islands. Not Europe, most certainly; for the route is too circuitous. The best market the West ever had is the South it self. The products of the West are too heavy and bulky in proportion to their value for distant exportation. The natural circuit ot American trade is to convert the grain and pork of the West into cotton, tobacco, and other southern staples, by feeding the population which grows these staples, and then exporting the fruits of western agricul ture in this less bulky form; which not only saves great expense of freight, but insures the certainty of a market. Whether grain will be in demand in Europe depends upon the European harvests. But American cot ton will always be in demand ; and western products are sure of a market as long as they are used to feed cotton-growers. The most important and urgent interest of the West is that the South shali be relieved of its embarrassments at the earliest im possible. What the West above all things needs is a market. The market which, for foul years, it lost in the South, has been temporarily supplied by the war. The West has tecl our vast armies, and the multitudes employed in the manufacture of army sup plies. But this market is about to disappear. Western agriculture will sink into a low and feeble condition unless it gets back the South ern market; of which there is no possibility except by the revival of Southern industry The great difficulty in the South is the condition of utter impoverishment ioto which that section has been brought by the war The pecuniary prostration of the South is so absolute that its industry cannot be set agoing without a great influx of capital from the Northern States. All the money of the whole section has been annihilated. The property which has been destroyed by the ravages of armies, and come into dilapidation by the ab sence and neglect of owners, cannot be res tored without money to buy materials and to paj’ wages. The country has been drained of animals, both horses and cattle, till not enough are left to draw the plow. Nobody will send and animals there to be sold unless money is supplied, from some quarter, to pu-cliase them. The North has money in abundance and can easily supply this want, but iu the present condition of things the South can give no security. There has ceased to be iu the South any basis for such security except its real estate. Lend money to a planter and there is no longer a lien upon his slaves ; they i ave all become freemen. Money cannot be borrowed upon southern bank stock or railroad stock: banks and railroads are alike ruined. Northern capitalists will not take the southern rail roads, replenish their rolling stock, and put them iu running order, because, for aught thev know, what remains of the property will be confiscated to the government All real estate in the South is in precisely the same predicament. Who will lend money on a mortgage, when by an unrepealed law of Congres , which await 9 only execution, the property mortgaged does not belong to the reputed owner ? And why should a farmer or planter, even if he could command the means, replace his fences, buildings, imple ments. aud animals, when it is certain that a single year’s crop would not refund the out lay, and uncertain whether, before that crop i9 gathered, he may not be ousted from pos session, r While things continue in this state, South ern industry cannot revive. The West loses its best market; the East loses a profitable field for the investment of capital; the gov ernment loses the revenue which might; be collected from a prosperous community. When the South is impoverished and the West unprosperous, how is employment tp be found for the hundreeja of thousands of men thrown loose by the cessation of the war? Before we can employ the surplus laborers we shall presently 'have on our hands, we must gee a prospect Qf markets.— No sound business man will manufacture for the Southern market until he sees a chance that the South will be able to pay for goods; nor manufacture largely for the West till he sees a possibility of the West finding a mar ket tor its pork and grain. The chief thing to be done now, at this present time, is for the government to render it possible for capi tal to fipty intq the South to revive its Indus try. That is to gay, the property that is left in the South must pe put in such a condition, as regards ownership, that it will be an avail able security for the loan. The U S. A.
