KVKMRG JEDITOOSi OP THE HERALD
t’v an accident to our press we were obliged to ma

circumstances now lead us to announce its discon

.11= possible, but will be received as late "a 12 o’clock
at night. We adhere to onr advertised rates, except

HOW TO OBTAIN THE HERALD REG
CLARI.Y
We often have complaints from e rents of Savan
nah and Hilton H-ad th t they are nor able always tn
obtain the F»*ai.d. The demand Is sometimes so
gre jt cflto exhaust an Edition very soon at’er Its isene,
and those «ho wi-h to have the Her, ALU regularly,
should subscribe for it. We have (hithfnl carriers in
Ba\ anuah and at Hilton Head, and through them we
always serve regular subscrioers first.
THE FALL TRADE IN SAVANNAH.
We took occasion last evening to converse
with several of onr leading merchants re
specting the fall trade, and were pleased to
learn that, there are many and most cheering
indications of returning prosperity in Savan
nah, as well as in other portions of the
State. The trade and commerce of this
Ctv begins to exhibit unmistakable indica
tions of a healthy and vigorous reaction.—
iudeed, in spite of the many drawbacks, at
no time during the last ten years has much
more activity in the sl.ippii g line been ob
aerved than Bay strett is n<>w presenting.—
A large number of st< am boats and sail-ves
sels crowd our wharves, and are busily en
gaged in receiving and discharging freights.
An endless s roces-ion of waggons, drays and
cans, he ivi y lad. ned with .all the various
articles of commerce, saluie the ear with their
incessant din. lodeeed every thing begins to
assume the appearance of those happy days
anterior to the civil war, when the trade ofSa
vanuah annually awoke about the Ist of Octo
ber from Its summer slumber. Audwhat is still
more satisfactory, the trade is on a sound
fooling ; for it is based upon the interchange
and actual delivery of the products aud
c ap’es of all sections of our State and Flor
ida for greenbacks and merchandize. We
do not think that this acivity is spasmodic,
or that it will prove temporary.
The extraordinary activity and magnitude
of business throughout tuis great country at
the present lime is far beyood any anticipa
tions that had been entertained of it in "any
quarter. The enlargement seems to be in every
branch of activity, iu the importation and
jobbing of all varieties of goods, and manu
tacluring industry and mechanic work. It
has already started steamboat lines—many
of them entirely new—to nearly every avail
able port on the vast seaboard of tbe South
ern States. Tue Northern cities are receiv
ing. in unprecedented quantity, the cotton of
the Souths and the indications from Wes'ern
Europe, say tbe New York papers, are that
our people w ill find market for heavy expor
tations of tbe cereklb of the West.
The South was swept bare of every sort
of goods during the war, and its working
machinery, its railroads, its rolling stock, &c.
were in great part destroyed. All that was
left it were its staple crops; but as it is
now proven to possess these in heavy quan
tity, they will enable it to supply itself witli
everything else.
As regards foreign commerce, there are the
same reasons for anticipating its healthy,reg
ular and profitable condition, as apply to in
, tereectional trade, namely, an approximate
correspondence between the value.oi exports
and imports. We learn from au intelligent
citizen oi New York city, no* on a visit to
this qi.ty, tnat the itnpoitatioi s .bus far in the
new fiscal year are not equal to the demand,
and considerate drauguts continue to be
made on the stock of merchandize in bend.
In one respect the trade promises to be
safer than ever before. The financial crisis
of '67 and the political crisis of ’6l killed
credit, and the bl-st wav is to let it stay dead.
With it the tendency to overtrade is often
mischievous and dangerous; but in the cash
system the more trade the better, as long
as k represents the legitimate ex
changes of producers and consumers.—
•So keep the green backs flying, ami
one of these days, if public affairs are con
ducted properly, gold and silver will iingle
musically as of yore.
To recover iu due season their former
prosperity, the people of the South must
eschew political excitement and contention,
end cultivate in a patriotic spirit that mu
tuality of kindness and lriendly assistance
always characteristic ot au enlightened and
Cdriotiau people, when struggling to recover
from tue cjqpiug effects of a national ca
lamity. The uiau who, whether in public or
private life, attempts, eveu indirectly, to in
flame the public m.ud in times like the present,
deserves to he o-traeised from the commu
nity, as a moral incendiary, seeking to de
stroy its peace and pro.-perity. God forbid
that the political suite and confusion which
existed beiore the war and convulsed the
country into the late sanguinary conflict, and
for which reckiuss and unprincipled editors
and politicians ate ttspousible, should ever
be felt and seen agaiu by this impoverished
and Uearutricaen people. That such a ca
tastiopbu may net be repeated will be due
mainly tc the solemn determination on the
part ot every g -od citizen to discountenance
the mischievoua machinations of political
tricksters in pursuit ot office, and the evil
influences of insane fanatics who thirst ter
excitement aud notoriety.
General Slocum commenced tbe political
campaign in Neuv York on Monday last by
an open and manly speech at Syracuse. He
gave a clear statement ol the present condi
tion of the South, as regards both the white
and black population, bated upon his own
personal observation; maintained that the
Southern people cordially accept tbe verdict
of the war as conclusive aud binding, and
strongly advocated the policy of President
Johnson, looking upon it as tbe only safe,
wise and practical policy that could be
adopted. Tne Mississippi militia controver
»y was fully explained. An extract from the

freedmen are fully protected, the just rights
and interests of the employer are not left un
guarded. A faithful compliance on the part
of plauters and other employers with the re
quirements of the Bureau will, under exist

lreedmen. The latter are given plainly to
understand that they will not be subsisted in
idleness or protected in acts of lawless inso

the former are assured that they will be re
quired to aet in good faith and to religiously
comply with just and equitable contracts.—

1. To prevent starvation and death among
the freed people during Hie ranidly approach'
ing winter, officers and agents of this Bureau
will make immediate and vigorous efforts to
provide all treed people who may be out ot
employment witn oppormoiiie? lor labor
win-re fair compensation aud kind treatment
will be secured to them. Thb is the only
practicable aud comprehensive plan of pro
viding for their necessities, and to this all
homes, asylums, hospitals or other modes of
furnishing relief will be regarded as subsi
diary ami for temporary use only.
2d. Fh aii tiie large cities, and where
practicable in Sab-Districts, a census will be
taken of the lreed people, showing the name,
present and former residence, sex, age. oc
cupation. value of property aud condition,
viz: whether able bodied, decrepid or per
manently incapable ot self-support This
can be done by intelligent soldiers de
tailed for tbe purpose, with very sligut ex
pense to tbe government.
3d. Officers and Agents of the Bureau
w ill invite all persons iu their sub-Di>trlcts
w .tiling labor to make known tbe fact, to
gether with tbeir address, or name of agent
liear.-r ot access, and a full statement ot the
number and kind of persons wanted—the
kind of employment and tbe compensation
otiired —whieb will be kept on file in tbe
office, or entered upon a book suitable for
the purpose. Intelligence offices established
by priva'e parties, if mauaged honestly,
may be encouraged and used as auxiliaries
Whenever it shad appear that there is
mor.. o.- /ess labor than can tiud profitable
employment in any sub-District, the fact
will in made known at. this office, to the end
that the needed distribution may be se
cured.
4th. Rations will uot be issued, or other
aid given, to able bodied refugees or freed
people who are offered or can find opportu
nities to labor for their own support, and
who neglect or refuse to do it. Only such
persons of either class as have sufficient
means, or who ate so permanently employed
as to make it probable that they will be able
to provide for tbeir own wants through tbe
coming winter, will be allowed to remain in
or about cities and towns, but must be com
pelled, it necessary, to go to the country and
accept places of labor tound by tbemseives,
or tor them, by offices or agents of the Bu
reau.
sth Unfortunately, there is a widespread
belief among tbe heed people of this State
that at Christmas there is to be a distribution
of property among them, and under this im
pression they are refusing to make contracts
for the coming year. Aii officers and agents
of this Bureau are directed, and other officers
of tiie army throughout the Slate, are ear
nestly requested to exert themselves to con
vince the freed people that they are utterly
mistaken, and that no such distribution W’il
take place at Christmas, or at any other
time, and to induce them to enter into con
tracts now, that the}' may not, at the end of
the year be in a condition io entail severe '
suffering on themselves, their families, and ;
upon tbe communiiv.
6th. Contracts for this year however ;
made, verbal or otherwise, will not be inter
fered wiih, except to compel, if necessary, ,
both parties to comply in good faith with
their agreements, and to settle disputes when J
they may arise. Conti acts for next year will :
b« made iu writing. The form of contract |
usually adopted reads as follow's ;
"Know ml men by these presents, that——- :

whose names are subjoined, (freed laborers,)
quarters, fuel, substantial and healthy ra j
lions, all medical attendance ami supplies iu j
case ot sickuess, and the amount set oppo

the coutinuatiou of the contract ; the

This contract is to commence with this
date and close with the year.

Witness.
Superintendent of District.
Registered at 186 .
But this may he modified to meet the in
dividual wants, wishes and circumstances of
the contracting parties, who can make any
trade or agreement that is satisfactory to
themselves, and so long as advantage is not
taken of the ignorance of the freed people to
deprive them of a fair and reasonable com
pensation for their labor, officers of the Bu
reau in this District will not interfere, but on
the contrary will give aid, encouragement
aud assistance in making contracts without
cnarging any fee or imposing any other
burden. The Bureau reluses to fix# price
for labor or allow ivto be a tone by any com
munity or combination of people, but leaves
labor, like any other commodity, to sell it
self, in the open market to the highest bid
der. Iu case the employers’ circumstances
are such as to make it doubtful whether or
not they will have the means necessary to
enable them to comply with their part ol the
contract, good and sufficient sureties to the
bond will be required, or wages will be se
cured by a lieu on the crops or land.
These contracts must be made in duplicate
and approved bv an officer of the Bureau, or
nearest Provost Marshal, who should also, if
possible, witness the Signature of all the
liarties and explain to them the terms, con
ditions aud probable results of the contract.
In all cases the officer will inform the parties
that having of their own free will joined in
the contract, they will be compelled itneces- i
sary to comply in good faith with its terms |
abil conditions. They will especially im- i
press upon the laborer that he is to work ]
under the direction of his employer, to be
industrious and faithful, aud not to leave the
plantation or place of his employment, with
out permission, unless he is treated with
cruelty.
Parents are responsible for their childten.
the children tor their aged and decrepid
parents, and must labor lor their support ;
and in making contracts this fact must be
taken ’mto consideration, thereby providing
lor a large class of persons who would other
wise become a burden upon tbe community
or Government.
Persons who refuse or neglect to make
written contracts lor next year with the freed
people employed by them," will oe required,
should any dispute arise as to the compensa -
tion to be allowed, to pay tbe highest wages
given for the same kind of labor iu the neigh
borhood or section of country.
7th. Officers and agents of the Bu
reau will on no account fail to protect the
freed people in their just rights as set forth in
the laws of Congress'and the Proclamations
ofihe President of the United States, aud for
this purpose will, if necessary, call on the
nearest uulitaiy commander ior aid, in com-
I piiuuce with Gen. Order 102. C. 8., from the
1 War Department. At the same time they
j will not allow the freed people to practice
j any wrong or injustice on their employers,
nr on society. They will remember that it is
| ibe chief object of tue Bureau to do simple
justice to all persons, while or black—to aid
to the utmost in securing to the employer
permanent aud reliable labor, and in restore
iug the State to its former condition of peace
and prosperity.

Connecticut aDd Colorado vote “no” on
tire question of negro suffrage. Col. Forney,
evidently alarmed, writes to the Philadelphia
Press from Washington, as follows :
The convention which nominated Abra
nara Lincoln and Andrew Johnson refuse to
make a national test ot the question, and
nothing but disaster bas ever befallen our
Irie.uds whenever they have departed from it
iu the States. Let us adhere to what is
nominated in the national bond. To go be
yond it is to court disaster for no practical,
nay for no theoretical good. Above all, let
us'avoid attempting to lorce upon tbe South
ern States what we are now once more
taught wo cannot, even with our better in
formed colored people, do ourselves at our
own homes.
Speaking of the vote in Connecticut, the
Hartford Times says :
A remarkable and significant feature of the
election ou Monday was the unanimity of
the soldiers' vote The returned veterans of
the war, bronzed in years of toilsome marches
and scarred in many battles, voted very
nearly unanimously against the proposition
for negro suffrage.
Tiie Fenian Prisoners.— A Liverpool let
ter of the 4th says:

AND
A Glorious Result
I
H.
There are § c many roads to fame and fortune as
there were gateways to ancient Thebes. Your am
bitious warrior is for carrying his war with the
eabre ; your aspiring politician for scheming his way
by intrigue and consummate art. But there Is one
grand broad patli to the goal, along which nothing
base can travel. It is the path set apart for the
march of talent, energy 7 , and noble purpose and
though full of obstacles, it contains none that a brave
man cannot surmount. This fact has been exemplified
in innumerable instances, but In few more forcibly
than in the rise and progreas of DR. HOOFLAND’S
GERMAN BITTERS. For over fifteen years its course
lias been onward and upward, scattering blessings at
every step, until it now stands on the topmost rounds
u* the ladder of fame, as the
GREAT TOISTIC.

W usbingiou, January 1, 18G4.
Gentlemen Having btateu it verbally to you, I
have no hesitation in writing the fact, that I experi
enced marked Lvne it from your Hoofiand’s German
Bitters. During a long and tedious of Con
gress, pressing and onerous duties nearly prostrated
me. A kind lriend suggested the use of the prepa.a
tion I have named. 1 touk his advice, and the result ;
was improvement of health, renewed energy, and j
that particular relief Iso much needed and obtaine i. ,
Others may be similarly advantaged, if they desire to
he. Truly vour friend,

Messes. Jones & Evans,
Gentlemen :—I have recently "been laboring under
tbe distressing effects of iadigewtiou accompanied by
a prostration ol the nervous avr>tem. Numewus rem
edies were recommended by mends aud some ol them
tested, but wi.hout relief. Your Hoofliand’a German
Bitters were recommended by persons who had tried
them, and whose favorable mention of the Hitters In
duced me also to try them. I must confess that 1 hud
au :iversion to patent medicines, from tue *-thousand
and one’* quacK ••Bitters,” whose only aim seems to
oe so palm off sweetened aud drugged liquor upon
th© community, iu a sly way; and the tendency of
which, 1 fear, is to make muuy a confirmed drunkard.
Upon learning that yours was really a raediciual
preparation I took it with happy effect. Its action
was not only upon the stomach, bat upon the ner
vous system, was prompt and gratifying. I fen that I
have derived great aud permanent benefit lroin the
use of a few bottle*. Very respectfully yours,
