Before tbe issue of another uumber ot tbe Herald tbe electioo will have come ami B one - This election ia in some particulars au im portant one, even more conse quence than bas been attributed to it by tbe people generally. Tbe election of a Gover nor, members of Congress and members of tbe Legislature has a vast deal to do with the future ot Georgia, both as it regards her do nestle interests and our National rela tion*. 'The elective franchise, therefore,at this particular crisis is one of the highest attributes with which a citizen can be clothed. It is for each elector to determine for himself to which party or ticket he will give his vote. And this is a matter which he Bhould deter* miue exclusively for himself. “Cnawei bjr influence, and unbribcd by gain.'' Neither friend nor foe should move him from casting bis vote for the man or men whose policy he believes will best promote the true interests of the State. If he believes that one candidate will best subserve the highest interest of tbe coun try, by all means let him vote for that man. If, on the contrary, he believes another the more patriotic of the two and bis policy the best, let no consideration sever bim from giving that man his vote. This is a question that each must determine for himself. It is the greatest glory of a republican country that to each citizen is guaranteed the privilege of acting unquestioned and un controlled on ibis subject, according to his own conscientious convictions. Aud this matter is one that should never be neglected, but atwfeys acted ou in tbe most fearless and conscientious manner. Above all things, bribery in any form, is tbe most detestable consideration that can influence the voter. It is a crime to sell the blessed privilege of voting, for any sum or any mere personal advantage. The man who would do it deserves to be a puriafi and an outcast from all political privilege. The voter having made up his mind us to which party patriotism aud a high sense of pub lic duty, dictates be should support, should go to the polls and cast his vote, ut terly rejecting the persuasions of any or all oi that uumerous class who hang about the polls on election day to coax, wheedle and cajole voters in the discharge of their poliii- Jjkd duties. By all means vote. It is a Solemn duty which no freeman ought to emit to perform. Makeup your mind se rious and soberly what your duty is iu cast ing your vote, and let no considerations de ter you from performing that duty fully. Tuts will there be an honest expression of opinion at the polls—and so shall our insti tutions be preserved. Esto ptrptlua. PATINO THE NATIONAL DKHT. Mr. Raymond, the editor of the New York Times, made a speech a tew days 6iuce iu that city, in which he discussed at consider able length, the ability of this country to pay the National debt. He also alluded to the fact that the National debt of Great Britain was accepted by tbe English people as a permanent burden to be borne aud carried during all coming time. He said the English people never expected to pay it, and that no effort had ever been made to pay it, except that in one single year Gladtone luid paid two million pouuds sterling towards reducing the principal of a debt which reached over one thousand million of pounds. Judge Gould, was present, suggested that there was au en actment passed iu tbe time of Pitt against tbe payment of the principal of tbe debt.— The speaker said the contrast betweeu the action of Great Britain and this country, in this particular was most remarkable. The sol diers had not finished inarching home before the Government set about paying the debt. In the mouth of September last #12,500,01)0 of our National debt bad been paid. At this rate it would not take long to reduce the debt so that its burdens on tbe people would be comparatively light. Our rapid growth and population and wealth, with a gradual re ducing of the principal, would iu, a few years, render the burdens of taxation so light that they can easily be borne by tbe people. Mr. R. believes that before ten years roll around, some plan will be adopted by which the debt will cease to be onerous aud oppres sive, and by which the principal may be certainly and rapidly extinguished. We hope bis vaticinations on this subject may be realized. RATIFICATION OF THU AMBKDME.VT OF THE CONSTITUTION PllOilltSlT- B 6 SLAVERY. The Legislatures of North aud South Caro lina have been informed from Washington that the ratification by them of the recent amendment to the United Slates Constitution prohibiting slavery, is a special prerequisite to the reailmission of those States into the Union; and a telegram informs us that the Legislature of South Carolina lias, in com pliance, passed au act ratifying that amend ment. We have heard some apprehensions ex pressed that the failure of the late Conven tion ol this State to ratify the Constitutional amendment alluded to would embarrass our resumption ol Federal relations. Wo do not think that there is any ground for such ap prehensions. The action required did not properly belong to the Convention— The amendment of the Constitution has been submitted to (he Legis latures of the Northern States and acted on by them. It will properly come betore tne Legislature of this State, which will couvcne previously to the meeting ot the Congress of the United Suits, to which our Representatives and Senators will present themselves for admission to seals, and as tge Convention, the highest legislative authoiiiy known to the State, hue already amended the State Constitution w u to prohibit tow ever slavery or involuntary lorvituda lu Qeojia, ilure can be no obstacle in the Wi y °f the General Assembly, a subordinate laxly ruliftyiu* a similar antendiuuut of the National Constitution. There need be no tpprebfuikw therefore that the non-ratidea ttonofthn anti slavery amendment will be allowed to aland lu tbe way of a speedy r« adjustment of aiulcabla tulalloua "ilh Urn I'nltei) Hunts Uoverniiiam. M the Utrma of th« Constitution provld leg lorn« aineiuluM'ui, nu ( uln» that It altall lie rmill. .1 by two third! of |U> Wuu» belor* haiH.inlog the law of the laud, aud na tbit jtfvvMou implies Uw sMtUsg u souivigu will on the part of the States, it would Lave beeu more consistent with the spirit of our government to have left the matter for the voluntary action oftlis Legislatures after the readmlseiou of the States into the Union. Such a course would have preserved the forrnß aud consistently of our Federative sys tem, and would have left no ground for fu ture cavil on questions ot validity. But, slavery being abolished by our own funda mental law, aud the institution being dead beyond tbe possibility of resurrection, it matters little about the forms of its final se pulture. TWO DAIS LITERMiIL FROM NEW YORK. The steamship Hunter, from New York, with dates of the 10th iust., arrived yester day. We are indebted to Puser F. C. Jef fery for favors. Tlie t ltoU'l-a In New York. There have been no new cases in New York harbor, aud apparently tbe disease is disappearing, at least for the immediate present. Dr. Walser, in charge of the hos pital ship at the Lower Quarantine, has made a report in regard to the cause, development aud history of the epidemic among the Ata lauta's passengers. Out of five hundred and twenty-five in the steerage, about sixty were attacked aud sixteen died during the passage aud since tbe vessel's arrival thirty-six more 8 ckeued and four died. This comparatively small mortality he attributed to the good con dition of the ship,the good quality ot the food supplied hua'the attention given to the sut ferers. The Doctor hopes for the speedy disappearance of the malady. Iu speaking of tile matter of quarantining cholera cases, he says the endeavor must be the quaran tine of persons, and not of slops or merchan dise. At an informal meeting of the Board o: Health held yesterday, it was aunonneed mat the British brig Chilton hau come up to the city without stopping to be quaran tined. The Mayor ordered lier return to Quarantine for sanitary examination. At tention was called to a large quantity of ball putrid hides and damaged grain said to be now lying amidst the ruins ot a recent fire in the vicinity of toe Grand street ferry, poison ing the bui rounding atmosphere. There are other equally offensive and dangerous nuis ances in different parts ol the city. It is un derstood that the national government pro poses to sell to our Stale authorities, lor a merely nominal price, the old receiving ship North Carolina, to be stationed off the Lower Quarantine as a permanent cholera hospital. An Interview with Witz, A correspondent of the New York Herald visited on the Bth inst-, the condemned man Witz, and lmd a protracted interview with him duriug which he gave a complete history of his life, from his infancy in Switzerland through his career in this country, ns a weaver in Lawrence, Mass., as superinten dent of a water-cure establishment, and overseer of a plantation in Kentucky, till his enlistment as a private in the Confederate Army, when discovering considerable ability to his superiors he was advanced from one important trust to another until.be became commandant at Andersonyilie. With ref erence to his conduct of that prison, be says : These things which was done (meaning Anderson villej somebody must suffer for. I have uyver denied that the prisoners were mistreated ; but it was not. my fault. If I am the lust one that is to Buffet death for the Southern Confederacy, I am satisfied. 1 do not tear death. 1 Dover saw a man shot nor never shot one myself. That I will say as loDgusl can say it. 1 never bunted pris oners with dogs, nor anything of that kind. "Unfortunately General Winder is dead. If he was living I know he would come out aud not let the innocent ones suffer. I never could get Winder to set his foot on the in side ot ,the stockade. I don't know the reason. If I have any ill will ngaiust any one it is they who have purjured them selves. The man who gave liis name as Delation, a grandson of General Lafayette, will be found out to be a German Jew, named Schaffer, deserter from a New York regiment. Anybody who knows anything ot military matters, knows that one in com mand of thirty-live thousand men Ims tube strict, but wbcu 1 mu accused of conspiring with Jefferson Davis aud others it is all a lie. Tli«* Ram Stounvall, The United States steamers Rhode Island aud Hornet, commissioned by tbe Navy de partment to convoy the ex-rebel ram Stone wall to this country from Havana, arrived at that place respectively on the 30th aud 31st ulls., and on the 2d inst. formal possession was taken by Commander Murray of the late rebel cruiser, and the Stars aud Stripes were hoisted ou board of her. It was supposed that betoie leaving Havana she would be docked to uudergo necessary cleaning. Tlie Cu.se of Gen. Briacoc. Gen. Britcoe, who was tried by court mar tial ou charge of attempting to rob the Quar termaster's Department at Lynchburg, Va., was released lrom prison in Washington ou the Bth. His sentence was that he he cash iered, dishonorably dismissed from tlie ser vice, prohibited lrom ever bolding any office under the government, forfeit all pay aud al lowances and be confined for five years at hard labor, all of which was approved by the President excepting the imprisonment, which was remitted iu consideration ot the General s brilliafit service in the army, aud he was accordingly set at liberty.

Private bankers, who at present are the chief lender* to stock operators, incur a great responsibil ity in using their deposits lor inflating stocks out of all proportion to their real value; and it will redound to their credit u they lend only upon margins which will keep speculation within sale limfta. At the Morning Board prices were weaker through out the entire lust, including government aud miscel laneous stock*. The London advices of the ‘Jftli, by the steamship Cuba, reporting a continued Uepre»siou in American securities, lias a depressing effect upon the market, especially on Govern menu.

They still continue to circulate the notes of the State Banks as well a* the National notes. In one in stance a State bank w ith a capital of live hundred thousand dollars, had in circulation nine hundred thousand dollar* of it* old paper, and also at the same time lour hundred thousand dollars in National notes. Threats oi pun ishment for these violations of law arc gradually bringing the banks withiu the limits ol the statue. The receipts of cotton at. the portt continue on a very large scale ; aud there are, as yet, no iudica* Lftoiis oi an early failure in tlie supply. From the close of the war to the first of September—a period of four months—the receipts aggregated 373,702 bales, uud from September l to the close of October —a period of two months—3o9,o74 bales. Thus since the first of September, the supply has came forward at the rate of 0,150 bale* per flay, or l wo and a quai ter millions of utiles per anuuin. The value oi the receipts for tlie last two mouths valued at two hun dred dollars per bale, wouidreach the immense ag iii egaleolu m nty-lour million dollars or nearly one halt tlie value ol au ordinary crop of cotton. Tne receipts since the close of the war are fully equal to the annual consumption of tlie United States in years before the rebellion ; so that, even supposing we should consume a* much cotton a* in ordinary years, we must have a very large surplus for expor tation.
