THOMPSON, Associate Editor. savannah, Wednesday, December t. is«. p o r Commercial Intelligence see Fourth Page. the new era op legislation. The lundamental changes that have result ed from the perilous revolution through which we have lately passed, and the conse quent chaotic condition into which the social and political fabrics of the South were pre cipitated by these changes will, of necessity, institute anew epoch in the annals of Ameri can Legislation. History demonstrates that much of the confusion and disaster which lollow civil convulsions, of the terrible char acter from which the South has just emerged, may be avoided by the prompt and judicious action of Legislators whose intelligence aud experience render them capable of a skillful and philosophical appreciation of the embar rassing difficulties which always present themselves at each and every stage of the process of transformation which follows the restoration of peace aud order. Hence it is that the Legislature uow in ses sion engrosses so much of the attention ol our people, knowing, as they do, that upon time and their action, imder Providence, de pend much of the prosperity or adversity of the State for years to come. The entire financial system of Georgia wil 1 have to be overhauled and reconstructed the embarrassing difficulties growing out ol the delicate relations of the two races will re. quires satisfactory solution, and upon the spirit with which they are approached and acted upon, the harmony oi the races may depend in the future. The basis of settlement for debts contract ed during the war, the election of United States Senators, Judges, &c. &c., will all de mand the attention of the Legislature. We presume that among the first things brought before it will be the amendment to the constitution of tbe United States abolish ing slavery. The establishment of one gen eral and effective agency lor tbe introduction of emigrant labor to meet the urgent demandg in every department of industry. The inauguration of a system of common schools for the education of poor children. It may be that an entire revolution will be necessary in the educational policy of tbe State. Or, if our present system is correct, which we are disposed to doubt, but is ham pered iu its action and consequently yields no good fruit, new energy must be infused, and new power applied to the old machinery. A committee of the Tennessee Legislature lias lately had the subject of education in that State under consideration, and has made a report thereon. This committee say “they have adopted no new and untried paths, no new theory, but have labored to avail them selves of the light and practical experience of those States whose career in the noble en terprise of promoting mental development aud instruction, through improved aud com prehensive and practical methods of common school education, has beeu einiucully suc cessful. They recommeud the appointment of effi cient county superintendents who shall de vote their whole lime to educational matters in their special districts. Under the old sys tem in vogue in that State au auuual appro priation from all sources of seventy five ceuts to each scholar was made, which gave but two months of discipline lo each. It is pro posed uow to give the youth more time at school and make their support a charge upon the whole property of the State. The wisest course of Georgia is to imitate the example of the Tenuessee committee and avail ilselt of tbe light and the practical experience of those States whose systems have been emi nently successful. We have, from time to time, iu our feeble way, thrown out suggestions touching mat ters of public iuterest for tbe consideration of our readers, Dot iu a spirit of dictation, hut from sympathetic motives aud an earnest desire to co-operate iu all that relates to the welfare of this great State. A COLORED DELVMOX. A gentleman who has lately traveled through the States of Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana, as well as through Florida, informs a Louisiana paper, that he found the same idea prevailing in each of those Slates among freedtnen, as to their be ing furnished abont Christmas, by the Gov ernment, with the necessaries of “house keeping.” # He mentions Florida, particularly, because he was there at the time Gov. Marvin ad dressed the colored population of Tallahas see and the adjoining country, lie says that the result of Gov. Marvin’s talk to them was a very sensible conclusion on their part to go lo work faithfully, to make au honest liv ing, and when he left the State there were mauy, who have been waiting iu a life of ease aud idleness, for the jubilee, had made contracts and gone faithfully to work in com pliance. The Labor Problem in Boston. —TLe mere substitution ol some blacks for a few Irish hod-carriers who had “Struck,” held a curious crowd for the whole day at Boston recently. To complete the picture, one of tbe new carriers wore the army blue. It was certainly queer, even in Boston, to see a black mau with a hod, and the dear public studied the show as if religiously beut on deciding once tor ail whether the black man would work, and how he would work Hav ing seen just haw he planted his f e 'ei and dumped Ins mortar, the crowd went awav satisfied that he bore his hod-honors well. Five Caniui.atlk eor or Nkw York —There are five Candidates iu nomination for the Mayoralty in New York viz: Marshall O Roberta, Union; C. ti, t}„„ titer, MeKeon, Democrat; Recorder lloff. mau, Tniiijiaiiy; Mr. Farmer, soldier*' can didste; and Mr Hccker, Citixeua' Aaaocia tion candidate, and Mozart Hall, supported by the Tribune and News.

The Asiastic Cholera has given rise to as many theories as lo its origin and character, as yellow fever or any other class of zymotic disease. By one class of physicians it has been pronounced to be contagious—by another class it has been declared not to la of a contagious character. Its origiu has been said to be atmospherical, then again to have its source in the physical habits of the people—in the filthy condition and over- 1 crowding of thoae who become its victims— 1 in certain terrene causes as low grounds and want of drainage—in the presence of cess pools in the vicinity of wells, &c.. Ac. The theory explaining the origin ol yellow fever to the presence of nniiualcolfc in the human system has been revived by an Italian phy sician. Remedial or preventive measures are framed iu accordance with those theories. If it is contagious, of course rigid quaran tine is essential. Its exclusion from our cities cau he effected iu no other mode than by the prevention of intercourse by sea and cordous by laud. It it is not au imported disease, hut has Its source in filth, in over crowding and the other causes that viti: te the atmosphere of certain localities a strict sani tary system is required. The result of all this discordance of theory is that scarcely any two systems of measures are alike iu the health police of our cities. In some of them quarantine has prevailed a certain number of years, then abolished, aud resumed again, as strikingly exemplified in New Orleans within a period of about ten years. It were to be desired that a convention of physicians should assetiblc to discuss the origin and character of cholera, so as to have a systematic ami uniform course of measures to prevent its introduction, and against its extension, in all our seaports, if contrary to our utmost precautions, it should become in troduced. In the interval, and until some thing like harmony of opinion is attained, the only plan of safety to he pursued is not lo relax in the slightest degree our sanitary measures of internal police to keep our cities free of those causes that aggravate, if they do not originate epidemic disease, while a strict quarantine is instituted, as an indispen sable measure of preventing its introduction, should it be proved to be contagious. aUALIFTCATION OP VOTERS AT THE ELECTION TO-DAY The following extract of the State law re lating to the qualification of voters at the municipal elections in Savannah, is publish ed by order of tbe Justices of the Inferior Courts, “AU persons shall be qualified to vote at elections of the Mayor and Aldermen of the City of Savannah and the Hamlets Iberioi, who are citizeus of the United States, have resided in tlm State of Georgia for one year immediately preceding the election, and continue so to do up to'tbe time of election, aud within the corporate limits of Savannah for four.monlhs immediately preceding their registration, who have atlained the age ot tweuty-one years, and have paid all city taxes, or have in their own right sufficient real estate to satisfy any tax executions which may lie issued aeaiust them, who have made all returns required by the Ordinances of the city, aud have been registered accord ing to the provision of this act." As much of this law as relates to the regis tration of voter* was set aside for this year by a special act ol the Stale Convention, and therefore has no reference to the election of to-day. IN GENERAL. A Finland newspaper mention s a stone iu the Northern part of Finland which serves the inhabitants instead of a barometer. This stone, which they call Itmoklur, turns black, or blackish grey ; when it is going to rain, but on the approach of fine weaker it is covered with white spots. The Tycoou of Japan had a narrow es cape from assasination on a recent journey, a Daimio whose palace he visited, having planned to murder him and his attendants. The chief conspirator was arrested and was executed by bdKiglpierced by lances while lashed to a wooden cross. Another commit ted suicide by “bari kari.” The plot was supposed to have been in the interest of a high personage who hoped to succeed to the rank ot TycooD. —The total vote for Governor of Missis sippi at the late election was lorty-four thou sand and ninety-four, an increase of over twenty thousand siuce the commencement of the war. Northern states show au in crease of about tbe same proportion. —The small pox is still raging in Macon, and the papers publish receipts to prevent pitting after small pox. —Dr. John G. Westmoreland, one of At lanta’s most respected citizens, proposes to raise a Volunteer Company for the defense of Atlanta, the property and lives of its cit izens, under the Governor’s proclamation Gen. Butler is in Washington, where he is establishing a permanent household.— This increases the belief that he is to be Sec retary of War, in place of Stanton. —Working for bare life,—making clothes for anew baby. —For the 453 vacant Lieutenancies in tbe regular army, there are about 3,000 appli cations. —The Columbus (Ga.) “Chain Gang" now consists of eight negroes, and is employed in leveling the fortifications about the city. All negroes found idle in the city are forced to become members. —A young gentleman named W. Travis Weaver, of Thomaston, .Ga., was knocked down in Columbus, Monday night by three men, who robbed him of bis watch, and of from SI,OOO to $1,200 in greenbacks. —A mau in Richmond a few days ago re ceived a letter with one thousand dollars en closed. The writer said it was the return of property stolen during ouo of Stoneniati’s raids. —A tnemlier of the Tennessee Legislature, wtieii offering it hill the other day, to pay hi* c >Ue,goes and hiiusell in gold, stated that “everything is uow bringiug double, treble or fourbiu which il brought a few years ago. ” —The Memphis Bullet iu stales that e gen end uiunusty will bo proclaimed for those Hums which adopt thiougli their legislatures i ihu cnusitlultooai nmendiueut against slave ry, and repudiate their war debt —The NsUuiikl luiuttlgtineur says II I* u*»i i Improbable ibai balora tbe rinse or llte mini lug aeastun, we shall witness a munplatu ree ' loration of ilia l uioa In all U. piilliiual aud 1 liuMt t«l integrity and power ■“Tim C'blmgfu I inns, wbnb deepaite us appropriations by I ’ougraM gdeqoaU to ib» ) *«uaa, non lends Hurt the Niagara Hblp I anal mm only ba uunplalad by tonal and unlive’ real aasMiaisd notarmiaa I Tints Spoktk is Atlanta. —The Intelligen cer of tbe 'id inst., says: “The race course was liberally aliebiie.l yesterday afternoon by the lovers of fast iloek, and a Couple of hours was pleasantly a/inl. The mile beat between Woolens and Whit iker's horses resulted in the defeat lof the latter. Woden's hors.- went through | in good style, making the distance in 2:11, which was highly creditable performance considering the imperfect condition of the track. The next trial of speed was a quarter race tiel ween Whitaker's sorrel and Wooten’s little luv, tbe former winning by about '2O feet. The sorrel was the most popular horse, on the traek, and his performances elicited much admiration. A lew “greens” cliaoged hands, but the betting generally was sin ill.', They have also been h iving several days’ fine racing at Columbus. Ou tbe 2‘Jlh, the second da)-, an exciting race in two mile heals, best two in three, took place between Penn Bedell's roan filly, and brown lilly Rosa, owned by Mr. Pryor. Large sums of money changed hands. The following is the summary: Ist. 2d. 3d. Bedell’s roan filly 1 2 J Prvor's brown filly Rosa, 2 I 2 time—4dH< 1-2; 4:19; 4:18. Ou the third day there were to he two races—mile heats—best two iu three. —Blackwood's Magazine says : “In the Trent affair, it is now no longer a secret, that Lord Palmerston made up his miud to go to war with the Federal States. The Emperor of the French, equally long since, agreed with Lord Palmerston. But the war-ilk# project ol the British premier was, it is stated, thwarted by his associates in the cabinet.” John Mitchell.— The papers have just found out that John Mitchell was not par doned. He never applied for a pardon, but was released from, imprisonment-by order of the President, and subsequenily took the oath of allegiance as a necessary prelimina ry to obtaining a passport to Europe.
