Both Houses woro organized, and the first des patches announced that the certificates of Mr. John H. Christy, editor of the Athens Watch man, and John A. Wiiupy, contestants for the Sixth Georgia District, woro referred to the Elec tion Committee. The Credentials of Miller and Hill, Seiiat-ors from Georgia, woro up in the Senate, and that the Clerk was reading the me morial of the negroes expelled from the Georgia Legislature. The most prominent features of the proceed ings of the first day (to Georgians) was a com munication from Gov.

Sho needs j that, her law-making powers should ho in t)io Union, have not been fully complied with, hands of her most patriotic and intelligent citi zens, who are identified with the fortunes erf* the and holding that, until such compliance, Geor gia’s government must coutinno provisional.— Iiis Accideney states in that communication that Statoby a common interest and patriotic attach- | (h| , fi>Uurc , n feiu to 0I , l0lfrom . offloora ment and love for hor welfare, those who are thus identified being “natives to the manor) born," or have bocorno identified by permanent ) habitation and pecuniary interests. With hor <lestiny thus placed in the hands of her own people, uninfiuenood by foreign or disinterested parties who only seek her offices for the sake of emoluments, Georgia will soop rise to the full statue of a givat nud prosperous State, and he roine, indeed, the “Empire State of the South,” her peoplo struggling manfully for prosperity nud against present poverty. Tho next pressing necessity is, that her whole peoplo should cost from thorn the veil of gloom which has obscured everything from their vision for the last three years but tlicir misfortunes.— Wo say to thorn, Cast away this mere cob-web delusion of misfortuno and poverty, and rise to the dignity of men, with tho coumge to over come all obstacles w*hich lio in the way of suc cess and prosperity, and show theuisolvos wor thy of fortune, by going manfully to work to re gain thorlost heritage of prosperity! Now is no timo to bewail the }xtsh We must look to tho future, and seek to improve our fortunes and work •out a nobler destiny than that which childish re pining opens up beforo us. That which is lost, is forever gone. Wo cannot recall it; but wp can secure for ourselves a bright future for the State, and for posterity, by tho sublime courage •which lias created gr$at men and great States— "the courage to surmount all difficulties that lio in tho path to progress. That courage builds fortunes, rears monuments and brings bright eyed prosperity and brilliant renown where guant poverty and black obscurity reigned supreme. The area and resources of Georgia are suffi- eleotcd tho oath proscribed by Congress, and ad ministering, instead, that provided by the propos ed Georgia Constitution, which failure to execute the laws of Congress has resulted in the defeat of the purposes which Congress had in view in passing these acts, namely, affording adequate protection for life, property, tho maintenance of peace, good order, and a freo expression of po litical opinion. Now, the trouble with the Governor (so-called' 1 , and his party is, Georgia has manifested too strong Democratic proclivities in tho lato Presiden tial election, and ho wishes to have matters fixed up so that carpet-baggers, negroes and Reala- may enjoy all tho offices of tho State. ITo, therefore, wants Georgia re-reconstructed to that end, and it may belaud wo think it probable, that Congress will undertake the work and make another big job ' for tho Radical mendicants of the State. Mr. Bullock, say the despatches, calls tho attention of Congress to this subject to the end that steps may be taken to obtain full information relative thereto; to the end that loyalty may bo protected and promoted by the enforcement of the laws enacted by the represen tatives of the American people. The word loyalty seems to be the burden of his soul. Ho and his party are so full of loyalty— which moans adherence to tho Radical party in stead of tho Constitution, and tho Union under the Constitution -that they cannot boar tho idea of Georgia being a Democratic State. .Perhaps, his Express Agency, by accident a bogus Govcr- ; nor, would like to inaugurate a socond edition of ■ tlio “situation” in Tennessee, as it exists under ! tho serene nud saintly reign of our reverend(?) Tub Supreme Court.- The first term of tlm Supremo Court of Georgia, under the new rc- yime, convened in Atlanta, at tho Capitol, on Monday last—Chief Justice Brown and Asso ciates Warner and McCav being present; also, C. W. DuBose, Clerk. Wo learn from tho Intel- liyencer that, in consideration of tho fact there was no convenience for heating tho apartment, tho Court adjourned until 10 o’clock Tuesday morning.

Tho abridg ment of their large plantation operations must and will bo the result of the change iu the sys tem of labor—in the substitution of slave for free labor. Small farms must take the place of largo plantations; and, so far as possible, every man of energy must become a landed proprietor in a smaller way. Five men, pecuniarily interested iu lands of their own, will produce as much prosperity to the country an ten hired men.— The more the landed interests are divided, the greater will be the prosperity of the masses.— This accomplished, another great noed of the State is met in its strides to prosperity.

So long as such pests are roving about over the country we shall have turmoil and bitterness between tho races, permitted to lie hidden for want of enterprise and capital. If Georgians will apply these, wealth and prosperity will follow; if not, our riches must full into the coffers of strangers far away. If our people will only nerve themselves With the determination to develop their own wealth, instead of permitting it to fall into stran ger hands, by going forward, enorgoticolly, in the development of tho mineral resources and the encouragement of mechanical and manufac- tural skill .and enterprise, another great need will be met We have hurriedly pointed out the leading ne cessities of Georgia, viz; 1. Good government to bo in the hands of tho people of the State—giving full and complete pro tection to all. 2.

Styles lias retired from tho editorial und proprietorship p( this journal, and it has passed into tho hands pf *.V. A. Hemphill A,Co., with Muj. J. B, Bur- rick ns the principal editor. Colonel Styles has done valiant service for the Democratic or white man’s cause, and we ora sorry to lose his manly co-operation in the canso of Georgia. His suc cessor. Maj. Barrick, is a gentleman of fine lit erary attainments and largo experience in the newspaper business. We wish tho CirnstituUcn dll manner of success. ^ negro voters in Augusta, our Democratic friends carried the city by the large majority of 1136!— with Mr. Henry F. Russell heading tho ticket for Mayor. It is said to have boon a fair elec tion. The Radical paper there, the Republican, says it was conducted as fairly as any election.— We hope to hear no more of intimidation and threatening from the Radicals whenever they are beaten. They have kept up this cry wherever and whenever we have defeated them. Our Au gusta friends have much to be thankful for, in their success—in once again in having control of their own affairs. Editorial Cow-Hiding. —Gen. A. R. Wright, of the Chronicle & Sentinel, felt it necessary, as ho says, to chastise Mr. E. H. Tughe, the pub lisher and proprietor of the Augusta Republican, the other day, for personally abusive articles in that Radical sheet. It seems that Pughe is not the editor, but that one J. R. Hood, a Georgia renegade, wrote tho articles which so aggrieved Gen. Wright. From some cause the Republican has been more moderate tho last few days.— Well, as that ain’t our fight, we offer no com ment ou the immorality of personal attacks, whether through the papers or through the agen cy of the raw hide. Enhmallkd.—Tho Atlanta Era, whioh hits so long boasted of its tremendous dimensions, comes to us now", like its party in Georgia, con siderably ensmalled. We think, however, that its appearance is mnch better, and is sufficiently large to hold all the patronage it can pro cure. The Era, we must add, is one the neatest printed papers in the State, and reflects credit upon the taste of those who conduct its me chanical department. If Bard could only com pass his welling effusions for the negro, and Radicalism generally, he would have a very de cent papor. Try it, my sweot follow ! W 1 Executor’* Sale.
