The Savannah Daily Herald. BY S. W.MASON&CO. — T SAMVEL W. MASON Editor. \V. T. THOMPSON inocialr K.dito SAVANNAH, rR DAV, OCT BEK 13. I$M. FOR LOCAL HATTERS SEE THIRD PACE. 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.

I From the Florida Times, a handsome ; weekly, die lit-l number of which was is- , ; sued on the r.ili inst., at Jacksonville, we j i make the foil .wing extracts : 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 medical faculty, whether patients suffering from a deficiency ot iron in the blood might Dot be benefited' by the use of stpel punches as an habitual beverage.

B.—All ORDERS sent by Mail promptly at tended to. jfll-tt 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.
