The Savannah Daily Herald- PY S. W. MASON A CO U. T THOMPMH. El " ,or ' £u"m,.N -tl '"l' BY •. W. , „ t , INI ,< UI..*OP«)V.«*K.» Tm unc-graphic announcement tn batur d«.V. H«r»ld that tbe inauguration of our I ce'wly elected Got trnor bad tratispired at to earlier period ib»n that which bad been iodi- ' cated by previous advices from Milledgcviile, look out community by surprise. We are j happy to state, however, that tbe pleasing | intelligence t as had the effect to remove the painful conviwtion, which had settled down ! into the minds of all, that the restoration policy ot the President had been seriously embarrassed, if not entirely defeated, by the tierce demonstrations of the Republican party in Congress It is gratifying to wit ness tbe reaction produced oy an event, to vci.ieh pre-eminent importance is attached by i,e assurance that its occurrence was at the immediate instance of President Jobn sou himself, which means that be is willing to rust the people of Georgia, and that he is not only willing, but anxious that their re pres ntatives should resume their seats in the Councils ol the nation. Ii is n l tn re apparent from thi9 act than t mbis late cm* age,that our Chief Magistrate n de«f> icertod tbe pop'meats of his policy of restoration. We have no doubt the Re publican members are receiving significant bin s from their constituencies who hold Ibe money-power of the country, that must re-tore Soul-tern commercial and agricultural pr •-perily, ami, to effect this, must adopt the President s plan of restoration. Another great influence has been brought «o ‘ -re in favor of the restoration policy by tbe action of tbe legislatures of Georgia and other Southern States. Their cordial and nearly uuanimous adoption of the Constitu tional amendment prohibiting slavery, and other measures advised by tbe President, have left no cause or pretext for tbe delay of the admission of their representatives. Tne radical leaders at Washington are bothered to know what steps to take to save tiie party from dissolution without an aban donment of the main features of their pet programme; they begin to fear that the ma jority of the Republicans in Congress cannot be dragged up to the support of uuivereal negro suffrage and the extension of territo rial Government over the South. We nmy indulge the hope, through the power and magnanimity of the President, that better days for U 9 are near at band. STATE NEWS. Mr. W. A. Ramsey, of Augusta, who has been on a visit to the North and returned, stales that with a majority of the people there the most kind and conciliatory spirit exists towards the South. This is particu larly the case with the leading merchants and business men of tbe city of New York. The steamer Helen left Augusta for Savan nah Saturday morning. The Chrouicle, of Augusta, says that about a thousaud persons have been sent from that section to the Mississippi Valley. These parties refused to make contracts, with their former owners. Governor Johnson has ordered an election for the purpose of electing a delegate from Muscogee county, to fill the vacancy in the Convention occasioned by the death of Hon. Hines Holt. It would seem from this, says the Columbus Sun, that the Convention will be re-as6embled. Geu. Steedman has gone to visit his home in Ohio, on leave of absence, and Major Gen. Wilson has taken his place as Commander of the Department of Georgia, aud left Macon on the 10th instant lor Augusta. The Newnan Herald reports the departure *rom thai tokvu of the United States garrison stationed there. Tne Macon Jourtttrl says that petty larceny is now the most dangerous and destructive crime iu Georgia, To keep horse, cow, pig, barn-yard fowls, &e., is now an achievement so auiiouit and harrassing, that most people are giving it up. It says that the evil is stu pendous, and the people arc getting disheart ened aud want to move away. A remedy is needed for this terrible evil. Tlit) late heavy rains have been general throughout the State, A brntal murder was perpetrated in At- , ianta a few days since, on the person of Mr. Crew, Rail Road ticket seller. It turns out to have been done by three negro men for the -ake of robbing him. A report of the condition of the affairs of toe State Road from the 25th Sept, to Ist November last, «ays during that time the earnings were $170,793 38, and the expenses $50,074 50, thus making a nett income du ring that period of $120,718 88. There have been purchased from the United Slates 185, freight cars and 8 engines. About $200,000 are needed to pay for repairs, purchase iron, , '. at the Superintendent believes the roan can be made, in a few years, to relieve the people ot the burden of taxation. SPAIN AND CHILI. - The New York papers, of the 9th inst., announce that Spain, influenced doubtless by the joint remonstrance of the English and Trench Governments, has withdrawn her menacing fleet from the waters oi Chili. The aggressive (spirit of yie Spanish Gov ernment colonial possessions in America, of late years, has been maiked by overt acts of hostility indicative of no amiable temper. She dealt very roughly with Peru about the Chincha Islands, which sue coveted, then took a turn at reconquer ing ot. Domingo, aud has recently fallen upon Chili. It seems that when Spain demonstrated against Peru, Chili felt for her next neighbor, taken at a disadvantage, and manifested sympathy. Thrift jvas no question of a vio- Utiuß of neutrality, for there was then no DeUgersMy. hut the Chi’.lians helped the I’e r .v.aii in their preparations for defence, and va .» ecu were done, small but significant, a . i.u mowed a national feeling in which the G.v.mmcot sympathised for Peru and ag -nat Spain. It waa very fully ahowu by a.. otter South Autencan(Republics, aud al ..<a .M«*r**»y by the people of the United p«.a demanded explanations and apolo . « and tadaxandkaUnos.

The Spauisli war on Chili afforded the first j occasion for the fulfillment of those condi tions in the shutting of all Republican ports agaiusl the uses of the Spanish squadron. : It is a striking fact that when tbe Spanish fleet undertook to enforce a blockade of the ports of Chili, the American Minister residents t here, gave notice that be did not bold the blockade effective and legal, and would pro test against the seizure of Americau vessels. This circumstance, taken in connection will) the reported diplomatic interference of Eng land and Franoe, show a warm feeling against the late action of Spain in South America, and it is not impossible that the suggestion of a coalition of Maritime Powers to check Spanish encroachments in that quarter, may be adopted. The London Times says that there is a general feeling that England should io con junction with France and America, take prompt steps to put a permanent stop to the proceedings of Spain in South America, aßd also remarks that a movement is on foot to express the sentiments of the people, of all the leading commercial cities of England upon this subject. HR. HAMILTON AS HAMLET. Daring tbe past week Mr. Hamilton has appeared in several of the classic roles of thu great authors. His performances throughout the whole season, and especially those of last week, have attracted considerable notice, and we have beard not a little comment upon his talents and probable future position in tbe profession. He is certainly destined to as sume a prominent place in the dramatic world. His performance pf “Fitz James" in the “Lady ot the Lake,’ - “Metamora," the In dian King, “Richelieu” and “Hamlet" espe cially/*hve stamped him as a tragedian of no mean pretension. With a handsome, manly person—great grace of manner—a fine eye— perfect familiarity with the stage, and a voice of depth and clearness, bis acting is most agree able. We could hardly realize in the “Ham let” of Wednesday evening the representa tive of tbe totteriog old Cardinal tbe night previous. Nearly every one who has read Shakspere with a student's penetration, has his owu ideas of how he ought to be repre sented, and there have been almost as many essays written on this recondite subject as on the value of the Greek particle. And, ex cept in rare instances, there ia good founda tion for all the diverse theories. Mr. Hamil ton has his own readings, which he seems io have studied out for himself. We have no decided objection to any of them. If we bad, be could possibly give as good reasons for them as we for wbat we might think more accurate. But we have not space to enter iuto a disquesitiou ou this sub ject. To make such a character requires the master hand of. Sbakspere, and to represent on the stage demands the highest art of the actor. The most eminent tragedians have differed ip their conceptions of this subtile character. We think Mr. Hamilton passejl ibrough the different phases of character which distinguish tbe melancholy prince very successfully—now melancholy and des ponding ; now buoyant with hope—then “splenetic and rash,” and then, ia his mood of madness, uttering the wisdom of ages in “thoughts that breatheaud words that burn.” To portray such a character successfully is tbe highest aspiration of the actor, aud we have to congratulate Mr. Hamilton on achiev ing a conception of jbe character, in our judg ment truthful, and rendered with propriety, and the natural grace which destiugulsUcs the accomplished actor. “Ophelia" was represented by Miss M. E. Gordon. If “Hamlet 1 ' is the most refined and philosophic, “Ophelia” is, without a doubt, the purest and sweetest of rihakes pere's creations. “King Claudius" was en acted by Mr- Wise. The robes of royalty sat rather loosely on this gentleman's shoul ders, who lacked that diguity with which the 'kingly lecher has bees invested by the poet, and Mr. Frauds was too slow and mechani cal in the incorporeal kiug. Since writing the above we sec the trage dy is announced for repetlton to-night. We hope lo see a large audience, as Mr. Hamil ton's performance of the chief role is really deserving of one.

Wc re|M>rt them as a public nuisance, aud hope that they may l>; abated. We art pleased to see that civil law is to some extern resiored, aud that law and order are a out to lake the place of mis i ule and discord. It has been our painful duiy to make an uuueuai number of present ments for crime aud misdemeanors ; this we attribute partly to the long suspension of the courts of justice, but mainly to the increase of crime which is ever incident upon a state of war We would further respectfully but urgently present to the attention of the au thorities as an evil of great, magnitude the presence of negro troops among us. We neeu not enlarge upou the probable conse- quences that may result from the new condi tion iu which tbe neirro is placed, unless there be some restraining influences ot that character which he has been accustomed to respect. During the time the white troops Were garrisoned in our county there was comparatively little cause of complaint. The negroes have under the preseut state of affairs become restive aud turbulent. No amount of promises of reward lor good conduct aud laithlul iabor seems—except iq rare in stances—to possess any influence upon them. Distrusting their former owners, they cannot dow be made to rely upou what the officers of the Freed men's Bnreau explain to them as their duly to themselves aud their employ era, refusing engagements to work for i« igomibie wages when proposed to them under written contract to be approved by an officer of the Bureau. They are vaiu ly dreaming of some unattainable good that comports w ith their false ideas of freedom. They plainly aud openly express their dis trust of the statements made to them by the officers of the Bureau, who have addressed them, saying that the Government will sup ply them laud and rations, until the pro ceeds of their labor on their own land shall oe realized for their support. Many of them have arms, how obtained, we are unable to say. and purchase powder at will, rnakiug boast that they are more numerous than the whites, andvj/i/cnd tohaue thtii- rights, what is meant by their rights may be inferred from tbe loregoing facts. There are many evi dences of intractableness and tendencies to insubordination other than those mentioned, but we refrain. Asa people, we hazarded everything in wager ol battle for indepen dence, tbe issue is against us, we abide it iu good faita. Wo have taken the oath of al legiance, and will be law-abiding citizens. We desire order ar.d full efficiency given to the laws. It is our conviction that tbe ne gro should be dealt with honesty and justly, receiving ample reward for bis labor. We believe Ibis to be tbe sentiment of our peo ple, and has been, and will be carried out unless prevented by an untortunate conflict between tbe races. The grievances of which we complain are maiuly, if not entirely trace able to the presence of negro troops among us. By them the mgro population are led to believe that there is to be a partition of lands, a division of personal property, and tbat tbe white man is degraded to their level, hence so little respect for those who tender them opportunities for labor aud use fulness. If an insurrectionary movement is undertaken, the presence of these troops will aid, not quell it. The State Convemiou has by Ordinance, directed tbat militia organiza tions be had in the several counties of the' State, which ordiuauce has been approved by tbe President of the United States and promulgated by bis Excellency James John son Provisional Governor of the State ot Georgia. These organizations are deemed ample for the suppression of marauding aud the n.a uleuance of order. We therefore respectfully request thiu these troops be re moved, lest their unwise interference iu our social relations be fruitful of calamity. We make this request in uo factious or quercloi a spirit ot complaint against tbe Government, but, simply that the lacts may be kuowu, order sustained, the lives of iuuocentaud un offending parties be held secure and tbe civil law be lully aud faithfully administered in justice to all parties.
