In his speech to them he urged that they should endeavor to show- by industry, virtue and intelligence that they are entitled to free dom. It it should be found that free negroes cannot harmonize with our system of free government, PiovideDce will point the way for their separation and indicate their land of promise. Thb Alabama State Convention —A Stu pid Movement. —If we are rightly informed, the Alabatna reorganizing Slate Convention has adopted an ordinance 'fixing the basis of represenlation on the white population, leav ing the blacks out entirely. Under the old slavery system tbree-tifths of her slaves were counted in enumerating her people for repre sentation in Congress. With the abolition of slavery there is nothing to prevent the late slave States from coaming the five-fifths of their blacks in their respective population; but Alabama proposes .to throw out all her blacks, or more than half her people, and thus to cast away iußy one-half the repre sentation she might otnerwise claim iB Con gress. This may be an honest equivalent for refusing negro suffrage, but it strikes ns as a very stupid proceeding—A". 1". Herald. Our Florida Correspondence. The impaired condition oj the Railroads— The in creased amount of traffic over the same—The Savannah and Gulf Road loosing its legit imate traffic— The Directory responsible—The people af Southwestern Georgia and Florida desire communication with Savannah—Rolling stock to be placed on the branch road—The people mov ing in the selection of men for the State Con vention—" Loyal Leaguers' forming their secret organizations—Revival of the newspa pers, Sfc.j tfc. Lower Mineral Spring, Fla., 1 September 80, 1865 f Owing to the dilapidated condition of the Florida Roads, travelling is not as pleasant and expeditious now as of yore. The pas senger cars and other rolling stock, from in cessant use for the last five years, without the materials for repairing, are rickety and uncomfortable, and their general appearance produces a slight feeliDg of insecurity, despite the unlimited confidence reposed in the eourtesy and excellent officers in charge of the trains. The traffic over the road leading from Tallahassee to Jacksonville, for the last four months has been unusually profitable, en abling the directory to purchase new engines and coaches, for which purpose the energetic President of the Central Road has gone North, and I believe has accomplished the object of his mission upon terms entirely satisfactory. The, as yet, unrepaired damages sustained by the Savannah and Gulf Road, from the destructive operations of Gen. Sherman's Army, last tall, has constrained many of the planters in the South Western Counties of Georgia to send cotton and other products over the Florida Road to Jacksonville, and this deviation from the most direct line of communication with the Atlantic seaboard, I regret to learn, was continued even after the introduction of steamers between Savan nah and Doctortown, to make complete the communication by steam between your city anil Tliomasville ; for the leason that the shipping expense incurred over this route much exceeded that charged on the Florida Road to Jacksonville. If the statement I have made, upon the authority ol another, be correct, the management ot the affairs of the Gulf Road has been both unfortunate and discreditable. That cotton, or anything else, should reach Jacksonville from the interior points indicated over- a de vious line for less money than it cau be transported over a straight line to Savannah implies tne existence of a spirit of cupidity or a degree of indifference to the commercial interests of your city, on the part of recusant railroad directors and steamboat managers in the highest degree culpable, and tor which they should be held accountable by the communities interested. For, notwithstanding the well known desire of the people of Southwestern Georgia and of at least half of the State of Florida, to make Savannah the great outlet for their marketable productions, it is not rational to suppose that tbey t will be accommodated when they are invited to other and less ac ceptable points cheapness of transporta tion, as compared with the tariff of charges on the Gulf road. I am thus explicit in my remarks upon this subject, because it is ot vital importance to the commercial weal ot Savannah that the true policy, so clearly indicated by an intel ligent appieciation of its merits, should be adopted at once ; that is to say, that the cost of transportation from all points on the Gulf road and the'Tallahassee road to the point of intersection by the branch road extending to Lawton, should not exceed that charged on the toad connecting Tallahassee with Jacksonville. An equalization of the tariff of charges on both routes is the great desid eratum that springs to view in the considera tion and settlement of the question we have presented, and no stone should be left un turned to secure it at the earliest commence ment Os traffic on the Gulf road, as well as the branch connecting it with the Florida road. lam assured that rolling stock will be placed on the branch road before the Ist of November, and active operations will com mence immediately thereafter, under the su pervision of President Houston, of the Geor gia and Pensacola Railroad Company. This will be an event in the commercial annals of Georgia and Florida of cheering significance ; and the people of Savannah, who are to realize the Lion’s share of the ad vantages that will flow from it, should de monstrate in some manner the lively satis faction with which its consummation will be regarded by them. The people of this State are just beginning to move in the selectioh of suitable men to represent them in the approaching State Convention, and as far as my observation has extended, they are actuated by patriotic motives and a sincere desire to send men who have accepted the new order of tbiDgs in good faith, and are prepared in the discharge of the duties imposed upon them to adhere to the policy of reconstruction as defined by President Johnson. An organization known as the “Loyal Leaguers” is said to exist in some of the counties of the State, the leading distinctive principle of which is reported to be ibe en franchisement of the freedman. They are Serhaps most numerous in the counties of luvai and Columbia. I find there is a general disposition to re sort to the old method of announcing candi dates for offices through caucuses or conven tions. Our country has many admirable usages and institutions, whereof the nomina ting Convention or secret caucus is not. one. In fact, to speak pointedly, I consider it our chief remaining swindle. Now ‘that the old party organizations are nearly broke up. It is a device of scheming knavery to fill Us pockets at the expense of ambitious medio crity. Men have been continually sent to Congress or the Legislature on the strength of a “regular nomination,” who would not have the presumption to present themselves as independent candidates, and could get no support if they did. No Madison, Clay nr Webster could bays kept a seat in the lionse of Representatives ten years under the sys tem of “regular nominations,” which have steadily degraded our standard of legislative capacity ever since they were generally adopted- Good and honest men are some times “regularly” nominated and elected, but the system did not make them good, but tend ever to degrade or to supersede them. One of the most pleasiug &pd conclusive evidences of the return of the good old times of peace and prosperity in this floral land, is the rapid revival of the newspapers that dis appeared for a time under the rude scbocks of war. Among the numerous and ably con ducted journals that flourished anterior to the war, we are gratified to note the reap pearance of the “Floridian” at Tallahassee, and the “Commonwealth” at Quincy, both of which arould be pleased to exchauge with the Hnbald. J. S. J. Th* Tide on Emigration. —The Jf. Y- Herald’s Berlin correspondent states that the German emigration to America appears to be chiefly diremsd towards Missouri, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, ahd even Western Virginia. All the information from those parts is en couraging for emigrants, since it is clear that the resources of the country are exbanttless and remunerating labor endless, good wages sure in every branch, and land cheaper than it was before the war. SAVANNAH. GEORGIA, THURSDAY. OCTOBER 12. 1865. Mauffr.to of tke Emperor of Austria. This is a remarkable document to have emanated from an absolute government. It shows the rapid progress of representative institutions. It “solemnly guarantees and irrevocably establishes the right ot the peo ple of the empire to participate through their representatives in legislation and the conduct of the finances.” It also manifests the pro gress of another principle no less indicative of the advance of political improvement— that of Unification. The leading object the Manifesto is to obtain the concurrence of the representatives of the different sections of the empire in that system of legislative unity to which the States of Europe are rap idly approaching. We have seen the influ ence of the principle of Unification in the case of Italy. Its different States with ap parently divergent interests have been blend ed into a consolidated kingdom “oue and indivisible ” under the name of the “ king dom of Italy.” Those who will be at the trouble of tracing the history of the Italian republics will not fail to see the progressive march of this prin ciple as essential to security as to general liberty. “From the 13th century or even earlier, says the Edinburg Review, January, 1861, the process of aggregation commenced and has continued to our day—much of this has been the offect of conquest, but it has tended by union to reciprocal advantage.” Instead of a number of petty and disjointed States consolidation has taken the place ot loose alliances or of imperfect confedera tion. '‘ln the early portion of the mid dle ages 7 says the same authority, Tuscany was split up into at least seven distinct sovereignties. The conquest and absorption successively by that republic of the smaller States of which Tuscany was composed, nn til the annexation of Fisa in 1409 and the conquest of Sienna in 1557, it was erected into a grand Dutchy in 1569. Lombardy was formed in rnnch the same manner—by the union of Mantua, Venice, &c., until the commencement of the present century, when by the forced union of Venetia with Lorn hardy they were transferred to the Austrian monarchy. The last act that marked the history of these gradual steps was the recent consolidation of the States of Italy into oue, we hope, compact Kingdom ; Venetia and Lombardy, we trust, forming the crown and consummation _of the principle of Italian Unification. The process by which much of this was accomplished wrs by conquest and forcible annexation. In our day iF is by voluntary association. It is effected in the interests of the people and against the interests of ab solute monarchy. The government of Victor Emanuel has set a noble example. The union of Italy has been its beau ideal,' as the union of the German States is the as piratiou of the thoughtful politicians of that country. The two antagonist forces of Federalism and consolidation have, in tact, been in con flict in Europe from an early period. In the United States this conflict has prevailed from the adoption of the American Consti tution to the close of the late contest be tween the North and South, when victory declared for the former—in other words, when the triumph was assured of qualified centralization. The tendency, therefore, both in the old and new world is adverse to the extension of the Federative principle, and favorable to that concentration of authority which has acquired an odious name by being called Consolidation. The Manifesto of the Fmperor of Austria is a step in the same direction. He is anxious to effect legislative union be tween the different sections of his empire, without which there cannot be harmony in internal policy or security against external aggression. The Charleston Bells. —We are inform ed that the bells of Charleston which were brought to this place, but three now remain on the spot where they have been so long ex posed to the weather, and that all of these three are brokeu. One of them is the bell of St. Paul’s Church ; the other two re maining are of St. Michael’s. These bells were originally eight in number. They were examined soon after the raid of Sheridan, and four of them, all of St. Michaei’s, were sound aDd perfectly uninjured. All these have disappeared, but in what direction, how, why, and by whose hands, is utterly unknown. Thdy are supposed to have beeu stolen, though as only the sound bells have been taken away, the hope is entertained that these were saved and stored carefully by Major Nlerusee. That tie n tie man is now absent from the city, and vt e must wait his return before we learn whether they are sate or not. If stolen, they could only have been stolen with the view to sell as old metal; and wby, it such were the object, the sound bells should have been taken and the broken left, it is difficult to conceive. Wo are re quested to correct the statement made in a Charleston paper, that when these bells were brought to Columbia they were left ex- Bosed on the platform at the railroad depot in the contrary, they were promptly housed in a building on the Capitol grounds, which was fired and destroyed by Sherman’s troops, at the time of the general conflagration of tpe city. The site where the bells still lie is that of the building which covered them.—-Co lumbia Phonic. The Story about Gen. Grant and the Mexican Policy. A DENIAL BY JUDGE CaJON. New York, Oct. 6. —Judge J. D. Caton in a note to the Associated Press, dated in this city to-day, says in reference to the reported conversation between Gen. Grant and him self, upon Mexican affairs, that Mr. Smith certainly misunderstood him, if his version of the conversation is correctly reported. Judge Caton says he neyer wus on a train from Cincinnati with General Grant to his knowledge, but that be did once have a casual conversation with that officer iu which Mexico was alluded to. In that con veragtiou Gen. Grant in no way intimated to to him that it was the purpose of the govern ment to interfere with Mexican affairs. Attempt of Dr. Mudd to Escape from the Dry Tortuga*. FosmfEss MonrOe, Ocf."B.—Ttfe steam ship Daniel Webster, from New Orleans 22d for New York, has put in here. |3be reports landing some prisoners at the Dry Tortbgas, and that Dr. Mudd made an attempt to es cape. He was found secreted , in the coal hunkers of the steamer Thomas Scott, and was put to bard labor wheeling sand. The quartermaster of the Scott was arrested for having aided in hie effort* tmesdhpe. Fa*h!Ona»li.—The new mode of cotfW better known as the chignon, is now des cribed in the fashionable circles as “the knobby bead of heir.” , Negro Safrafe In roaneetical The Repuliliokn party in Connecticut baa been first in bringing before the public the distinct issue of uegro suffrage, and the re sult has been unmistakably piain. The bal lot in Connecticut is very well regulated. There is no universal suffrage. They have the best rule of qualification when pioperly administered, to wit, the qualification ot in telligeuce. They allow no man to vote who cannot read. How they determine the de gree of intelligence we are not informed, but w e presume that a voter may be challenged and examined by the inspectors at the polls. It was a very fair case therefore in which to bring the Issue forward. It was not pro posed to give all negroes the privilege of voting, hut to give the ballot to those who were sufficiently educated. The result is a very plain assertion of the people of Con necticut that theirs at least is a State in which the government is a government of white men. It will not do to rail at this de cision. The people of that Slate are noto riously the moot intelligent people in all the United States. There is no Slate iu advance of Connecticut either in education, intellect, wealth or civilization. It is true the re ligion of the Slate has been tailing off of lale, but this has not been against the negro equality ideas. Oj the contrary, the ten dency of mauy churches has been to make ebony idols and worship them. He who has refused to bow down to the new image has been regarded as irreligious. In no State in the Union could a more fair trial be had of the willingness of the people to extend equal political rights to the negro. The Republi, can party in the last Legislature to try the isslß*. They passed the provision by a strict party vote. For Beyeral yeJrSi they had maintained a popular majority 4W-J the State, and no doubt was entertained among their leading politicians that they would carry this provision, and give to the President a very distinct notice of the inten tions and expectations, of the party which elected him. The result has been astound ing to those who favored the progressive doctrines. Iu the heart of New England, in a State where the most violent radicalism has been rampant and triumphant on former occasions, the people emphatically declare that negroes shall not be admitted to equal political power with white men. Let it be remembered that this is a State decision. In this vote we have an instance of the exercise of State sovereignly, the highest exercise of it indeed, since it is a question going to the very foundation ol all government among us. It is an interesting and iusliuctive scene just now. No one has thought ot requesting President Johnson to intertere and compel Connecticut to give ne groes the right of voting. That State is still within a military district, and the writ of Habeas Corpus remains suspended there.— But we have not heard of any proposal to proclaim the negroes citizens in full stand ing, or to compel the adoption of the new plan as a military necessity. On the con trary, it is conceded that neither the General Government nor acy State except Connecti cut—no, not even Massachusetts—has any right to interfere with the absolute power of Connecticut to determine who shall vote iu that State. So that the doctrine of , State rights and State sovereignty over its infernal affairs prevails with alf men of all parties, notwithstanding the fierce attacks which have been made on these principles. The policy of President Johnson will be sustained by this vote. It will give him great strength with the couutry at large, and it ought to operate with force on the position of men in Congress this fall. It would cer taiuly be very inconsistent in any member of Congress from Connecticut, were he to take a position in favor of forcing negro suf frage on the Southern States., He might very properly be told to go home and elevate the negroes of his own State to equal social and political rights before attempting to do so iu other States. It is highly probable that the result of this election will secure to the President and bi 9 policy the support of sev eral members of Congress, who might other wise have been regarded as doubtful. —.V.
