HOW TO OBTAIN THE HKRAI.D REV
ILARLV.
We often hare complaints from residents of Savan
nah and Hilton Head tint the; are not able always tr
obtain the Fieai.h. The demand is sometimes ao
great as to exhaust an Edition very soon af*er its last t,
and those who wish to have the Hebald regular
should subscribe for it. We have faithful carriers in
Savannah and at Hilton Head, and through them ' ?
always serve regular subscribers first.
The Georgias Convention and the Sub
ject or Education.
Among the many interesting subjects lik
ly to engage the attention of the approac
ing Convection in this State, and abo
which we hear much solicitude express'
by many of our intelligent citizens, is that
education.
It is painfully true that the inhabitants
the Southern States have ever been o
noxious to the charge ol apathetic indiffi
cnce to all propositions in the past, to ma
adequate provision for the establishment
public schools for the education of the po
children.
Georgia has been equally derelict with t
other Southern States in not providing a
school fund commensurate with th- abt
lute necessities ot her people ; and it t -
comes the duty of the journalist, now lb
we are about entering ou a new career,
dirqct public attention to this important mt
v6r. Indeed it is the duty of all to ende
vor to rouse our people from their unpardo
able apathy in regard to a measure of such
vital influence to our whole country.
dVe acknowledge and regret our inabilit
at present, to devise and recommend to the (
Convention a satisfactory scheme for the t
tablishment of common schools. But there t
■will be in that body many wiser heads that
our’s, upon whom will devolve the
eibility, by virtue of their,superior capabl
iy and fiduciary trust, not only to decla
the correct principles which form the bai's .
of enlightened educational policy, but to s ,
that these principles are carried into succet
fnl practice, by providing for the creation
a sufficient fund, by tax upon property
persons, to ensure the success of whf t
ever system may be adopted. At the pr-se
time there are as many distinctive
school systems as there are Stab:,
in the Union. Some of them sre
good, more are bad and many of them
are intolerable in this enlightened age
The great need of a more general and more
systematic plan for the education ot you
has loDg been seriously felt iu the Soutbe
States, and our general advancement has be
shamefully retarded in consequence of it
There has been too much of a disposition to
follow in the old beaten tracks, with ths
complacent reflection that what has beeD
good enough in the past ought to be good
enough at the present time. There has been
entirely too little attention paid to education
al reforms, and we hope the Georgia Con
vention will take up and analyze the subject
thoroughly and skilfully, that we may no
longer rest under the approbium of having
neglected a subject which, above all others,
commends itself to the most solemn conside
ration of our civil rulers.
Before the issue of the great struggle which
has convulsed our laud and shattered the
former system of Southern society, there ex
isted a disposition on the part of many per
sons in the South to hurry their sons through
a course of schooling as rapidly as possible,
in order that they might enter upon ths man
agement of a plantation and servants await
ing their majority. Men who possessed
abundant resources argued that as their sons
were to lead a plantation life, the time and
means necessary to acquire a finished educa
tion were but thrown away. They seemed
to be unconscious of the fact that we have a
Tight to expect mental cultivation and eleva
tion in the young man having at his control
the means requisite to the attainment of such
accomplishments. Ail this is radically wrong
and the remedies should be applied at cnce
by the Convention and the people themselves.
We are about entering upon anew social
organization, demanding increased self-re
liance, and nothing tends to aid us more iu
attaining this than mental culture. There
is another urgent reason which should incite
us to a greater degree of earnestness and
energy in this direction than was ever feltby
us heretofore. Tuere has sprung up in the
midst of our social system, anew clement,
suddenly elevated to a position never con
templated hitherto, and which we must con
trol by superiority of mental culture mainly.
As their position has advanced, the standard
of education will have to advance, paripatsu,
on the part of the naturally superior and ru-
ling race, if it hopes to maintain the ascen
dency. A gentleman of acknowledged acu
men'and sound discernment, with whom we
recently conversed in an adjoining State, re
marked, in speaking of the future ot the
South, a struggle is approaching in which
r»ul, not sinew, will be of account—keen
Tfit, not sharp swords,ultimately triumphant.
Brute force and material resources must daily
depreciate in value, and mind re-assert its
eupremacy. Mind will rule and muscle must
yield. If the foregoing is true, it behooves
as to shake off our lethargy; to gird our
aelvss forstTODg, steady.carneet effort tn urg
ing lorward the question of Southern edu
cation. We regret that we have not the
ability to present tnis vitai subject in a strong
er light before our people. It may oe, how
ever, that we have presented an idea or a
thought that will attract the attention of
those so vitally concerned, and incite them
to action, and if so, our object is accom
plished.
The South American War —We are so
much engrossed in domestic affairs, and war
intelligence, from South America comes so
irregularly, that we pay but little attention
to the war raging there between Paraguay
on the one side, and Brazil and Uraguay on
the other. The forces on either side number
from 65,000 to 60,000 men. Lopez, the Pa
raguan leader, is fighting for bis very exist
ence, and his men are courageous, and fight
' v > h desperation. Where they have been
'ffitorious they have acted with cruelty. The

Thieves Arrested —Several colored men !
have been arrested south of Gainesville for
killing rattle and npppropriatii.g them to
. their own use ; also nine or ten others for
I penning up other jieople's hogs to the uuin
her ot hundreds. Tue evil of taking cattle
| and hogs running at large is «ue of the ex
tensive prevalence iu the Slatif and calls
for stringent action on the part >1 our mili
tary autuoiities. The laws of Florida con
template the running at large of stock, and
in fact there is no other way to raise it to
advantage, and if it is to be placed at the
mercy of vagrants and thieves, it will soon
be exterminated.

Soldier Suot.— On Sunday night last a
colored soldier strolled away from his quar
ters after hours, and invaded ihe “ beat” of
one of the guard of regulars, whose chal
lenge to “ half’ Was unheeded, when be shot
him dead.
Seven or eight different saw mills have
been project' and and are in process of erecdori
at Cedar Keys or the vicinity, lor the pur
pose of munulaeturing lumber from tne
Suwannee for the New York markets
Oitrice.—A short time since, a young
negro employed on a farm a tew miles from
Newnansville, took from the stable a horse
• belonging to his employer, to ride bis “gal”
|to a dance a short distance off. On his way
j back during the Dight he was shot dead by
j some person who lay in wait for him by the
| road side. His girl was riding behind him
on the horse at the time, and says that the
I man approached to within three feet before
| tiring, but she fails to identify him. She is
neld in custody while the authorities are at
tempting to bang the murderer to justice.
New Bhxdgk.—We learn that Dr. Hodges,
an enterprising citizen of Marion county,
has built a tine new bridge across the With
iacoocbee, on the direct route from Gaines
ville to Tampa.
Emigrants to Brazil. —We are informed
that a vessel now lays at Bayport on the Gu'f
coast, prepared to receive emigrants for Bra
zil, and transport them to that slavery-blest
count.y “without money and without price”
—lret —gratis—sor—nothing—and present
them wall an outfit of coffee-plants, etc.,
when they arrive. Many of the political
leaders of the South have gone there, and
many more, who deem slaveiy essential to
prosperity, are preparing to follow.
The Veteran Reserves. —A communica
tion has been laid before the Secretary of
War, signed by the prominent Senators and
Representatives in Congress from all the
States, earnestly protesting against the mus
tering out of the twenty-four regiments of
Veteran Reserves now iu service. They ask
that, if it is intended to reduce the troops to
the necessities of a peace establishment, the
volunteer forces now scattered throughout,
the country and anxious to be mustered out,
be dispensed with first, thus leaving in the
service only ihe regular army and the Vet
eran Reserves, which, combined, amount to
fifty-seven regiments. Most of these regi
ments need reciuiting. They’ also ask that
permission be granted to the Veteran Re
serves to recruit their regiments up to the
full number. It is urged as one of the rea
sons for retaining tbe-e troops, that most of
them have received during the late war such
bodily injuries as unfit them lor the ordina
ry business avocations ; and as they prompt
ly and patriotically volunteered to put down
the rebellion at its commencement, they
should be retained iu the service, and es
pecially as it is now known that a regular
lorce will be requir and equal to that of the
regular army ami the Veteran Rese ves com
bined. Secretary Stauton holds tue matter
under advisement aud for consultation with
Gen. Grant.
The Russo-American Telegraph—Minis
ter Clay has transmitted to the State Depart
ment an official copy of the conditions stip
ulated bet ween the Russian Telegraph De
partment and Hiram Sibley, for the
establishment of telegraphic communication
between Russia and America, by which the
exclusive right is granted to the latter pleni
potentiary, of the American Western Union
Telegraph Company, for thirty-three years
from the day the line shall be opened, the
Russian government to grant, a further term
as it may judge convenient. _
In order to encourage the undertaking,
ths government grants to the company an
allowance of forty per cent, on the net pro
duce of despatches transmitted by it over
the lines to and from America; and in order
to contribute as much as possible to the suc
cess of the present undertaking, the Minister
of Public Utility will adopt the measures ne
cessary for securing the company’s telegraph
from being maliciously injured by the local
population, but at the same time, the gov
ernment refuses to lake upon itself any re
sponsibility for such injuries ot any nature
whatsoever. The company is allowed to im
port materials free of duty.
It is a question for the consideration ot the

PROSPECTUS
or THE
GEOBGIA LAND
AND
EMIGRATION COMPANY.
SLAVERY, or involuntary servitude is practically
abolished in Georgia The Proclamation of the
President of the United States having given freedom
to every slave, and the oath of amnesty and the con
ditions of pardon, forbid any attempt at its revival in
any form or condition
ihe gi eaumass of the Agricultural Population of
the State has been released from their obligation to
cultivate the soil, except by their own volition, and
it must be apparent to the judicious observer, how
ever much o oe regretted, that the voluntary labor
of the newly freed population wtll not tor the present
at least, supply the deficiency of labor.
The withdrawal of nearly three hnudred thousand
able-bodied persons to a greater or less extent from
their usual vocations, has created a void which must
be tilled or the lands of the State will remain untilled,
her great resout ces undeveloped and her future pros
perity sacrificed.
The remedy, and the only remedy for this condition
of affairs consists in the immigration of a hardy and
industrious white population, to supply the places oi
those who cannot be compelled to work and whose
dispositions do not incline them to greater labor than
is actually necessary to support life.
To such immigrants, no State offers greater induce
ments than the State of Georgia. Extending from
the Atlantic ueean to the Blue Bige. it embraces eve
ry variety of soil and climate. The savannahs of the
coast, the rolling country of the interior, and the
mountains of the northern part of the State afford
opportunities for the cultivation of almost every pro.
duct of tropical or temperate latitudes.
The grape is grown with great success in many
parts of the State and its cultivation has only been
limited by the want of persons skilled in the Knowl
edge of the vine and the mode of preparing its yield
The Stateis rlsorich in gold and other minerals, and
nothing but energy and the application of proper ma
chinery is wanting to the development of those hid
den treasures.
The raising of sheep of the finest breeds has been
earned on with success, and the vast ranges of uncul
tivated land afford excellent pastures lor cattle and
all kinds of stock—rice, cotton, tobacco, corn, wheat,
rye, oats, sugar cane, the grape and all species of
fruits find their appropriate soil and climate within
onr extended limits.
The numerous rivers and smaller streams taking
their rise in the mountains nnd running through the
State into the Atlantic aud the Gulf in their gradual
descent furnish water power unfailing in any season
and capable of putting inlo operation any kind of
machinery.
The area of the State contnins upwards of thirty
millions ot acres, o which not more than one-third
has been cultivated, anil the virgin forest of the wild
lauds afford an inexhaustible supply of lumber which
formed a heavy item of the exports of i.eorgia prior
to our late difficulties. These lands, which maybe
bought at comparatively low rates, will give to the
new settler a homestead on which he may erect his
root tree and settle lor lile an inhabitant aud iu time a
citizen of the republ c.
Iu view ol the foregoing facts the undersigned pro.
pose to organize a Company to be called the ' Georgia
Land aud Emigration Company,” the principle office
to be located in savannah, with the intention of ap
plying for a charter at the next session of the Legisla
ture ; the capital of eaid Company to be five hundred
thousand dollars, in twenty thousand of twenty-five
dollars each; said Company to be organized by the
choice of a president and Directors when all the
shares shall have been subscribed.
The object of the Company is to indnee and afford
aid to the immigration into the State of Georgia of
1 honest, sooer and reliable persons with their families
j to become purchasers of and settlers on lands not now
in use, or to be labore.s on farms or plantations on
which thefreedmea reiuse to work, or to follow their
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
mauilest To the iarge landholder it offers the pros
pect of selling his land or farming it out on advanta
geous terms. To the Planter aud Farmer it will sup
ple that labor, in the absence of which, the owner
ship of the soil is a burthen, and to all persons In
those classes of life whose business requires or whose
position permits the tue of tue labor ol ethers, itat-
Ufi-as the opportuaity of obtaining snch labor of
a reasonable rate, aud ot a rein. Ole character. So
also to tlie State will great benefit accrue: many of
the Immigrants may bring wealth with them, all will
bring skill or iuuustry, which ia the source of wealth,
andtbi* infusion of ne « lile will, we trust, in progress
of time, restore Georgia to her original state of pros-
Company we believe—will be, not only self-sns
tainine, bur a source of profit to the stockholders
The fees paid by those emigrants who can afford ft,
for directions as to their seulem.mt; the commissions
paid by the owners of lands for the sale, or leasing of
their lands to the immigrants, and by persons to
whom laborers are furnished, the profits to be derived
from a savings Institution to take care of the funds
and profits of the emigrants, which it la proposed to
connect with the Company, will, we expect, enable
the Company to declare such dividends as will make
it remunerative to ibo»e who subscribe simply as an
investment. But Independently of pecuniary con
sideration, as citizens of ihe htate oi Georgia who
have an Interest in ita future weliare, we ask your as
sistance In this matter, in our opinion of vital impor
tance We may not leave the land of our birth, let
bs make it once more a land of promise.
