Tilt 1 Protectioni£t« Moving* Meetings are being held in various parts ot the country by those classes who wish to be favored in their interests by legislative pro tection previous to the meeting of Con gress. The wool growers had a large meet ing recently in Philadelphia. Several lead , ing individuals took part in the proceedings. Among those who addressed the meeting in favor of Protection doctrines was Mr. Henry O. Carey of that place, who has written largely on the science which he lias culti vated successfully, and by which lie has a European reputation In his earlier works Mr. Carey was an advocate of free trade principles. Some of the reason ings and facts offered by him in those works in favor of free trade were irrefragable, and arc beyond disputation. In bis address to the meeting aforesaid, he came forth as the vainest advocate of Protection, and, ot course, as the adversary of Free trade. Mr. Carey could not have expected that his present opinions would not be contrasted with those he published under the high authority of his name some years since. In hi? speech at the gathering in Phila delphia he uttered the U9uul common places iavoraiib ld*Protection doctrines, fn his itjasomngjjf) justify legislative protection, to class interests, Mr. Carey seems to ignore the progress of mechanical invention as a protection to American manufactures, par ticularly the Colton manufacture of New Eng land, more than all tbe gytu ms cl Froleetion <le - i riseci by its frieudr, and carried out iu the enactments ot Congress.

The Cotton Seizcrls cron the Klu Rum'. -*VVe observe that about forty admiralty ■ suits, most of them growing out of cotton seizures, chiefly during the Red river expe dition, aDd involving property valued at one million seven hundred thousand dollars, are now pending in the District Court at Spring field, Illinois. Most of the cotton was seized by tbe navy, sent to Cairo, and Fold by or der of the Court. The question now is, whetbei the proceeds belong to the govern ment, the uavy, or tbe claimants who have appeared since the seizure.

My antipathy to the blackguardism ot your O', paper yield j ed to a natural curiosity; and, the at tide in i question read, curiosity yielded, uot to in i dignation, but to a sensation of the wildest j and most iuten-e astonishment, nay, admira ' lion, of the impudence which characterized j tile whole production. As we arc accustomed ■ to sav, that we cannot discover whether ennii are more knave than fool or more fool than ! knave, so I w as puzzled to determine wheth j er impudence or blackguardism ruled the as !

Then I dwelt upon I lie virtues of Ambrose de Lamela, preferring such cliarac | tors fiom a persuasion that only among t lie blackguutds of Spain and Portugal (confess edly the most accomplished and impudent blackguards iu the world,) could I find any thing to compare with you. But you stood j among them all so “ proudly pre-eminent ” that I gave tip comparison iu despair, and determined that a character and genius so grand and orig'ual as those with which na tine has gifted yon, required a separate eu- I quiry and analysis. I I would like much to write your memories | if I could get the material, but .alas no one I can give me any information on the subject.

(Q ) “ Then by what right does he under take to canvass the characters of gentlemen who have lived for years among us, where reputations have always been above reproach and to whom, we have just proved by our votes that we are willing to entrust our dearest interests and the honor and welfare of our State ?’’ Col. Anderson and Mr. Cohen are maile the recipients of your peculiar benevolence —two gentlemen, who, although, always ready to greet the poor aud honest min as friend, would not permit you, sir, to cross their threshold ; uot even to occupy a place at the table of their colored menials, which position, I am giyen to understand, you once chose to take in the household of a gentle man iu this city, iu preference to the society of the white family. However, ol that I have nothing to complain : “chucun a son gout" is a well known French proverb, and ‘‘birds ol f :v feather flock together," a good old English cue. 1 have no doubt that Col. Au dersou is glad to hear that you regard him as “a man of more than ordinary ability," and that lie is immensely relieved to know that “aside from his political views,”.you have no fault to find with him. But it is upon Mr. Cohen that you pour out the vials of your disappointment ad In fini tum. He is a Jew, a native of South Carolina and a defaulter. As lo ihe first charge, I sus pect that .Mr. Cohen will plead guilty to the impeachment; but 1 really doubt if lie will feel very much annoyed at being charged as being one-of a people who have given laws to the world, and whose nationality and faith the blessed Savior of mankind did not hesitate to adhere to and acknowledge. But I fear that what was approved of by the Savior, will uot accord with yonr notions of right. At any rate, Mr. Cohen has reason to thank the Being he worships that his ic ligion, whatever it may be, is not contamina ted by the adherence or prosely tlsm of your self. I suspect, too, that Mr. Cobe.t will comers that he wat iroru in South Carolina. But, really, whatever may be the stigma at tached to being burn on ihe soil of South I Carolina amid the periietts ot ihe O il Brew ery, the people of Georgia do not regmlit us very dishotjotabk. They are,'perhaps, in a deplorable state of ignorance, and you and | snclr as you will have to enlighten them At ■ any rate, Mr. Cohen bar lived in Savannah ! since- before you blossomed into existence, and when he canto here he cams with the reputation of a high toned and houorable geaffeman, which he has sustained ever serf. How did you come hote? Ihaveen- qoned. Noone will acknowledge you to have been an officer of the army, and for the sake ol the respectability of the army, I um thankful. Please let us know whether you were a teamster, “bummer," or penny-a-li ner. Tue last charge is that Mr. Cohen is a de limiter to thel!. fi. Government for SIO,OOO. If Ibis be true, it is opposed to the w hole course ! jol his past life, and we have hitherto i been in blissful ignorance of his character ! | I v< ill not insult Mr. Coheu by enquiring if the i ( ‘oa:ge he true, but in the absence of all evi dence save your assertion, 1 braud the charge a lie aud its publisher a base calumuialor. Towards Mr. Lloyd you ob.-erve a tone of limited compliment; but as to whether he wou and not be “more houored in the breach than in the observance" at your hands,l have my doubts.

I regret the bitter pill you were 1 made to swallow at the recent election, but .lit rigi.t does not equal the sympathy I feci with the defeated Caui lid a tea at their having as their champion and expeutnt. I re mit the painful fact of having beard vou geutlally denominated yesterday ou the i street, “a dirty blackguard." I reg-et more than all that I have been obliged to soil my hands with yon. I would have yon recollect j one tiling, however: that, in this part of the world, we recogniz : a gentleman in blue as gladly a? we do one in grey ; and we hnve no more respect for a blackguard in blue than we have for a blackguard in grey. As you : hive not a shadow of chance of acquiring j ihe respect due to a gentleman, either in blue ■ or gti v. pray let me advise you to escape 1 the contempt due the nondescript, who entn- I ijiues the characteristics of the blue and grey blackguard fused together. Pray, let me hear from you in y our issue ' of to-morrow in answer to this. Y’our black guardism towards tnc in the present dearth !of business will amuse me. Let me beg of you, too, to take a few lessons iu geutieman- I iy demeanor from yonr colored friends who : have been brought up in Southern families; ! the contact will improve you—although I 1 would not advise you to aspire to any mat j rimonial views with their daughters. You ; would probably meet with a disappointment I as grievous as your late election ambition. 1 will state, in conclusion, that if you are j anxious to learn the name of the friend who j addresses you, you have but to biud yourself j with decent security to the obligations ustlal i under such circumstances, nnd you ran ob ! tain it. Your’s, without a shadow of respeet, A Citizen of Savannah THE THREE-FIFTHS KI LE. There is Rn obvious incongruity between the retention of the three-fifths rule in the Congressional representation of the slaves and the abolition of slavery. The abolition of slavery would scent to involve full repre sentation of the slaves. No othe conclusion that is logical can be formed - Still as it is a part of the Constitution the rule cannot be dispensed with by the Southern States. The effect is that they will not be entitled, f.3 long ns it continues, to that extent of representa tion to which they are entitled. South Ca rolina, for example, would be entitled to six representatives it her slaves were represent ed in the popular brand; of the National Legislature. According to the census of 1360, South Carolina will not be entitled to more than four representatives until the cen sus of 1870 is taken, and in the same relative jproportion as regards the rest of the South i rn States. The remedy for tiffs is obvious. AA'liih: the Constitution is being amend and by the ab ilition ji.f shivery, it ought to be further amended' by abolishing tin! three-fiilhs tnle as no louger applicable, and to make that instrument consistent with itself. i.v general. —Ayoung white woman recently eloped from Carthagena, Ky , with a negro. —ln cleaning up the Blind Asylum in Macon the other dav, amid the filth and plunder seven or eight muskets were dis covered. --Miss Augusta St. Clair, “a petite young lady, scarcely twenty.” has been lecturing on Marriage and Female Education in Cleve land.

THE president’s reception. The Philadelphia Inquirer's Washington special says : Washington, Oct. 1. The President's reception yesterday was well attended, but ihe irhong of pardon steke's lias considerably diminish ed, caused by their knowledge of the fact that Jiui more uctv applications tor pardon would be cobs dieted until those al ready passed upon by the Attorney General have been acted on by the President. No pardons were announced yesterday, but the stamping process was in active operation, and it is expected a large number w ill be published on Monday. Among the visitors today at the Executive Mansion was M A JOR-O EN r. It AI. l'A I. M ER, Os Kentucky, who lmd a long interview with the president, it is supposed in regard to af fairs in that State, before the doors were opened to the mass of visitors. Gov. Bram lette, of Kentucky, was hero early lu the week, and had several interviews with the President. The arrival of Gen. Palmer has given rise to the rumor that some disagree ment, exists in Kentucky between the civil and military authorities in regard to the ad ministration of affairs in that State, and ihe Governor applied for Presidential interfer ence to the extent of removing Gen. Palmer from Command. It is also hinted that Gen. Palmer was or dered here to explain his official acts. Noth ing has yet publicly transpired as to the true merits of the case, but further developments are expected in a few days. The well-known repugnance of the President to military Gov ernment where power can salely be entrusted to the civil Authority, justifies the belief that the wishes of Cov. Bramletle may prevail in clothing the civil authorities iu that State with luil powers. THE PRESIDENT LIBERAL WITH lIIS PAP.DOXS. A special despatch to the Philadelphia Ledger of Oct. 2d, says- Washington, Oct. I.—l wrote you, a week to-day, that the President was becoming more “careless" iu the matter ot pardons, and ample confirmation of that remark is already at hand. Not only is the President relieved of the duty of signing with his own hands the pardons granted, but he has given direc tions that the indiscriminate rush of appli cates shall be stayed, tbe Executive reserving to liimseif to decide who shall be admitted. It looks now as if nine hundred and niae ty-ninc applicants out of a thousand would receive the coveted pardon without troubling themsoives any further than send their pa pers. duly endorsed by the State Executive, to the office of the .Attorney General. A cer tain number of names will then bo run through daily, aud a pretty general sweep made, the exceptions, if any, being those against whom there ate special aud grave reasons for withholding the pardon sought CUR TIMBER MARKET. Previous to the war Savannah had growu lo be one of tiie most considerable timber maikets in the country, aud the export of yellow pine ranging timber, live oik timber for ship-building, staves aud naval stores, next to cotton and rice comprised the tno-t important branch of our domestic commerce. During th s war the blockade of our port suspended the timber business, aud for the past four years uot only have the rafts that formerly eucumbered tbe banks of tbe Ogee chee canal and the river above the city dis appeared, but the loading of stiips for for relgn markets in our port and at the mouths of the Altamaka and St. .Marys has ceased. We are please to observe that with the other indications of returning prosperity the lumber business, for which our section po aesses such inexhaustible resources, is being resumed, aud the gentlemen of enterprise and energy have turned their attention to tile re-opening of this important trade. Messrs. Sims & Wheaton, the latter an experienced timber merchant, have opened a house here for the transaction of a general agency in tiie receiving, sale and shipment of lumber, and within the past two weeks Messrs. F. L. Guc & Cos., have dispatched two vessels frei glued with lumber to St. Johns, New B ruMwick, and Halifax, Nova Scotia. : Kk*<«<.«riiH ( kt.lul m hmj. tiaepl. attii RirtrkiS*' Adi-spuldi received from the Fulled State* Con ui at Btiudi-i, ttniy. and in-1 August -'tlx, I Says UiHt (HC Asiatic I'lfciicr* lent *1 • !>'its i appearance on the A lrialtc coa-l of the Ital ] inn |*cniiisula, sod at the lime of w riting tbe ' do-patch seemed to tie spreading in all di i rot-lions. Ancona was the lint place to feel i tiie fatal effects of this terrible scourge, and l tbe deaths lux a long time averaged about ! one hundred per day ; but it lmd apparently ! siient its force there, only some twenty new i cases living reported daily. Il next broke j out iu San Severn, a place of some eighteen thousand inhabitants. The deaths average : about sixty per day, ana tbe disease is still raging tearfully there. A few cases of chol era have been at Foggia, and some also in every pi tee between Brindisi aud Biri. The United States Consul at Constantino ple, writing to tbe department under date of August 30, reports that the ravages of the cholera in that place have almost entirely j ceased. If the Steadily increasing decline continues, it is confidently believed that the city’will Ite free from the scourge within ten days. The official reports show the number of deaths from this disease from noon of the 25th to noon of the 20th to have been fifty two ; from noon of tbe 2Cth to noon of the I 27th, twenty-six ; and from noon of the 27th to noon of the 23th, forty-three. A despatch from the same source, dated September 4, says that the last official re turns show the number of deaths the preced ing day to have been but fifteen. It is esti mated by physicians and others that the number of vie ims of this scourge in Con stantinople and vicinity will be lound to be not less than fifty thousand. The Consul at Barcelona, under date of September 9th, reports the total number of deaths at that place from the 31st of August to September 9, inclusive, to be two hundted and seven teen. Tiik Davenport Brothers in Paris.— A correspondent of the Pall-Mall Gazette thus describes the manner in which the Brothers were exposed: Tiie Brothers began by taking their seats in the mysterious cupboard, which was ex amined by Count Clnny and M. Ilenti De Penc, after which M. Duchemin, an engineer, firmly tied the Brothers with the rope.' The doors of the cupboard were then closed, the gas was extinguished, nnd the spectators waited patiently for the spiritual manifesta tions. Nothing, however, appeared, and the public began to hiss. At lengtli tbe doors opened, and the Brothers were discovered unbound, with the rope at their feet. M. Duchemin upon this took up the rope to ex amine it, and declared il was not the one he had used. This produced a perfect tumult among the spectators, which was increased by the manager announcing that the Brothers would uow proceed to tie themselves up.— The stage was immediately invaded by the public ; the Brothers prudently disappeared, and the performance terminated by tue ap pearance of soma senftnts de. vU/e, who clear ed the room. While this was going on, M. Robin exposed all tbe tricks ot the Brothers in his sa/te ou the B mlevard, and enlivened bis demonstration with uumerous witty allu tions, which were evidently much relished by his audience. YVlthdrasvul ui A undulates from Hie Con gressional Canvass In Virginia. Bai.timork, Sept. 28, 1867*. Richmond and Petersburg papers ot to day have been received. Dr. Woods, of Albemarle, lias withdrawn from the Congressional canvass in the Sixth district because he could not tnko the oath. In a published card he says: Recent indications, however, apparent to all. and recent information not accessible to all. convince me beyond the shadow of a doubt, that there will* be no repeal or modifi cation; and our only hope of being repre sented at ail is to select men who can take the oatb ns it now smnds, honestly nnd con scientiously. Entertaining this opinion there is no alternative left me but to withdraw from the Congressional canvass. When it is perfectly obvious that onr noble President standing as be does a great breakwater be tween the radicals of the North nnd our prostrate country, needs every Southern rep resentative to sustain him, were I to permit auy selfish consideration to control or influ ence me, I should despise myself and be false to every honorable impulse of ray na ture. The Republic accompanies the card with the remark: The field is thus left open to Mr. Lewis and Mr. Sandy Stuart. Mr. Lewis can very consistently take the Congressional test oath; Mr. Stuart's conscience preveuts. The Republican also says : The people of Havover county were ad dressed on Tuesday last by Mr. Johnson Barbour. From ail the information that we receive there is no longer any doubt that Barbour will carry every county in the dis trict. The Lynchburg Republican says : One of the most distinguished gentlemen of the State, whose name we are not per mitted to give, writes as follows in regard to the ©legibility of Congressional candidates : “I regard it as absurd, not to say criminal, in tbe people under existing circumstances, to select such men. A man who feels and knows that he is not eligible ought not in these times of trial and trouble to thrust him self before the people ; hut if he does so tbe people ought to have the good sense to re buke him.” A Court of .Jurisdiction between Freed men and their Employers.— Major General O. O. Howard, Commissioner of Freedmen, lias authorized the establishment, of a sort of court of examination into all difficulties aris ing between tbe freedmen and their employ ers. The assistant superintendents of the bureau, with two citizens—one to be selected by the white citizens and the other by the freedmen—are «o constitute this court, the jurisdiction of which is limited to the case indicated above. In furtherance of ibis plan, General Howard has been making tbe tour of Virginia, and on the 28th instant had an interesting interview with the officials of Portsmouth and Norfclk. An Air Line Railroad from New York lo Boston is now agitated. It claims to shorten the route 2.7 miles nnd one hour's travel. The Grand Trunk railway favors the enter prise, for it chii send freight and passengers through from Montreal to New York with only a ehan'ge of cars at Pm‘.land. There is a great deal of opposition to the proposed road from the railroad companies now es tablished between the two cities. A Terrific SroitM in Texas —Galveston was visited by the most terrific storm ever witnessed on tiie 13th inst. Several houses were blown down and others moved from their foundations. Trees and fences were also prostrated in every ditection. No lives fortunately were lost. Tne town of Osage, on the Sabiue liver, also fell the effects of tiie storm. Houses were blown down in various parts of tbe place, aud tbe fragments of one fell upon its tenants, mortally wounding one person and bruising several others. Other accounts of tiie storm from different portions of the State are fearful. Everything Gotxo Smoothly tN Texas The Houston Telegraph says tbut there is hardly auy complaint against the proceedings ot the military officers in the State, or inter ference with or opposition to ihe civil ap pointments of Governor Hamilton, whose administration of affairs is giving traversal satisfaction.

SLAVERY, or involuntary servitude is practically abolished in Goorgia. The Proclamation of the President of the Un ted States having given 1 recti.)ni to every slave, and the oath of amnesty and the ron dltlona of pardon, forbid any attempt at its revival iu any form or condition The gi eat mass of the Agricultural Population of the State has been te’eased from their obligation to cultivate the soli, except by their own volition, and it must be apparent to the ludldons observer how ever much o oc regretted, that the voluntary labor of tire uewl7 freed population wilt not for tbe prescnl at least, supply the deficiency of labor The withdi awal of nearly three hundred th< usa and able-bodied persons to a greater nr less txten tro > their usual vocations, has created a void vhlct. most be filled or the lands of the State wlllreiosln mu., ed, her great resources undeveloped and her future pre.- perity sacrificed. The remeuy, and the only remedy for this condition of affairs consists in tbe immigration of a hardy and industrious white population, io supply the places of those who cannot be compelled to work rnd whose dispositions do not ineline them to greater labor thsn is actually necessary to sn|iport life. Tosucu immigrants, no Stale offers greater induce ments than the Sta'e of Georgia. Extending from the Atlantic Ocean to the Bine Mige. it embraces eve ry variety of soil and climat •. The savminnhs of the coast, the rolling country of the interior, and the mountains of the northern part of the StJte nffnrd opportunities for the cultivation of almost every pro duct of tropical or temperate latitudes. The grape is growu with great success lu many parts of the State and its cultivation has only been limited by thu want of persons skilled in the knowl edge of the vine uud the mode of preparing its yield The State is rlso rich in gold and other minerals, nnd nothing but energy and the app'lcttlon of proper ma chinery is wanting to the development of tiiose hid den treasures. The raislug of sheep of the finest breeds has been carried on with success, nnd the vast ranges of uncul tivated laud afford excellent pastures lor cattle aud all kinds of stock—rice, cotton, tobacco, corn, wheat, rye, outs, sugar cane, the grape and all species of Iruits find ilieli appropriate soil and climate «itkia our extended limits. The numerous livers and smaller streams taking their rise in the mountains and running through the Sifttednto the Atlantic and the. Gulf lu their grudtial descent famish water power unfailing In any searor. and capable of putting Into operation any kind of machinery, The area of the State contains upwards of thirty miiUuns ot acres, o which not more than onc-tbiid ba* been cultivated, and tne virgin forest of the wild lands afford an inexhaustible supply of lumber which formed a heavy item of the exports of '-corgia prior to onr late difficulties. These lands, w hich m»y he bought at comparatively low rates, will give to the new settler a homeste id oil which he may erect his root tree and settle for llle un luhabitunt aiid in times cilictu of the rcpubl c. In view ol the foregoing facta the undersigned pro pose to organise s Compauy to he called the ' Georgia Land u.id Emigration Company," the principle office to be located in Savannah, wiih the Intention of ap plying for a charter at the next session of the Legisla ture ; the capital of aaid Company to be five hundred rhonsand dollars, in twenty thousand of twenty-five dollars each; said Company to be organized by the choice of a President nnd Directors when all the shares shall have been subscribed. 'The object of the Company ts to Induce and afford aid to the Immigration Into the State of Georgia of honest, sober nnd reliable persons with their families to become purchasers of and settlers ou Duds not now in use, or to Ik- laborc.s on farms or plantations on which the treedmen reinse to work, or to follow ibclr trades, or become house servants. The advantages to be derived as this present junc ture by the influx of such a class of population, are manliest. To the lame landholder it offers tbe pros pect of selling his land or farming it out on advanta geous terms. To the Planter and Fanner it will sup ply that labor, in the absence of which, the owner ship of tiie soil is a burthen, and to all persons in those classes of life whoso business requires or whose position permits the ure of the labor ot otbera it af fords the opportunity of obtaining sneb labor of a reasonable rate, and of a relD blc character. 3" also to tiie State will great benefit accrue: manv of the Immigrants may biing wealth will) them, all will bring ekm or Industry, which Is the souice of wealth, I.nd this infusion of ne v life will, we trust, In progress of lime, restore Georgia to her original state of pros perity. The Company we believe—will be, not only self-sus taining, but a source of profit to the stockholders — The lees paid by those emigrants who can afford it, for directions as to their eeulement: the paid by the owners of lands for the sale, or leasing ol their Duds to Ihe Immigrants, and by persons to whom laborers are furnished, the profits to be derived irom a.savings Institution to take care of the fundfl and profits of the emigrants, which it is proposed to connect with the Company will, we expect, enable the Company to declare such dividends as will make it remunerative to thorn; who subscribe simply as *" investment. But independently of pecuniary con sideration, as citizens of the State of Georgia who have an interest in its future welinre, we ask your as sistance in this matter, In oar opinion of vital impor tance. We may not leave the land of onr birth, let ns make it once more a land of promise. All communications should be addressed, Postpil'D toJno. W.
