We give notico that all subscriptions to tho Re publican, made prior to the doath of the late pro prietor, expired on the 6th instant, and all to whom we send tho paper will bo oxpccted to pay from that date. We bought nono of tho debts of our prede- . tenor, nor is the administrator at liberty to compen- ' us for filling out his contracts for subscription; consequently, parties who have paid in advance will havo to look to tho estato for the return of thoir money. This may look a littlo hard, but it is not our fault. It is tho result of a sale undor tho law ifter the doath of tho owner insolvent. Each sub- Uriber who has paid In advanco may loso a fow dol lars, not to bo felt, whilo to remedy the slight hard ship, tee would havo to pay out thousands on con tracts in which wo havo not a farthing’s interest. We feel sure this simple statement of tho case irill bo satisfactory to every reasonable mind, so far As the present proprietor is concerned, and trust that All the old subscribers of the Repurlican will promptly respond to our ndvance terms, and enablo us to continuo the paper to them. To this end we shall oontinue sending it to all whose namos appear on our books until the 1st of Novembor. By an arrangement with the administrator, nil existing contracts for advertisements will bo com pleted by tho purchaser, the administrator collecting op to the 6th instant, and tho remainder to be paid to ourselves. If preferred, wo are prepared to mako new contracts, commencing with the dato of sale. REPUBLICAN FILES. A number of bound volumesof tbo Rei'L’bliias are missiDg from our library, and persons having them in possession will greatly obligo us by return ing them forthwith. SUNDAY REPUBLICAN. From this dato tho Republican will be issued on Sunday instoad of Monday morning. PeraonB served by tho carrier, and desiring a change in tbo •• will clcase leave no tice at our counting room. Atlanta Constitution.—Wo take groat pleasure In calling attention to the prospectus of this paj-cr, to be found in our columns. Tho Constitution is in all respects consistent with its n&mo and motto. It is edited by Colonol Carey W. Styles, well known in this section of the Stato, and Is one of tho abloat and liveliest of our Southern exchanges. Being published at the present capital of the Stato, we re commend it as an oarly and reliable modium of what Is transpiring at tho political centro. DeBow’s Review and the American Journal of the Medical Sciences, for October, havo boon ro- •eived, and are oxcollent numbors of those vnluablo works. Snow.—Whilo wo in this latitude aro enjoying the balmly weather of early autumn, tho tolograph reports sovere cold and snow storms throughout tho North yesterday. We shall probably foci its effects to a more or loss dogroo within tho noxt forty-eight hours. Oen'l Howard will give the result of his South ern tonr in a series of lectures this winter. He says the Southern people aro misled mainly by their newspapers and a lew bad and ambitious leaders. He believes the masses love the Union, and would lire and die for it if let alono.—Radical Paper. There is no doubt of it—if "lot alono" by just such men as General Howard, who alone aro keep ing the Southern people out of tbo Union, ana by their wrongs and persecutions alienating them from it. Tei, just let us alone, and make the Union our proteetor Instoad of oar oppressor, and no man will be found in the South to raise his band or open bis Ups against it. Scrivkn Sui'Ehior Court.—Oc account of the Presidential election taking place on Tuesday of the Court week, the Augusta Chronicle and Scnti ml learns that Court will not sit until Wednesday of tho rogular Court week—the day after the elec tion. The Clerk has been instructed to adjourn the Court from day to-day, until Wednesday, whon Judge Gibson will be present and proceed with the business. The Macon 'Telegraph opposes the erection of a ootton press in that city, as an investment, and says if compressing had been of any advantage to the railroads, the Central would have long since bad one at their depot in East Macon. Tjba steamship Texas, bound from Indianola for New Orleans, with a errgo of live stock, is supposod to have gone down in the late gale, as she has not ainoe been heard from. From Mnxico—Santa Anna.—Havana, Octo ber 13.—Additional advices from Mexico state that Colonel Padilla, the reputed agent of Santa Anna, has been captured, with documents on his person allowing that he intended to excite revolution. The •ffioial organ at the capital says publio works will now bo pushed forward, especially the completion of railroads from the capital to Luca, and from that place to Cuernavaoa. A bill bas been introduced Into the national Congress providing for jury trials, pnbllo education and general reform. New Captain General of Cuba.—General Duke, who has been appointed Captain General of Cuba in place of General Lersundi, was formerly Captain General of Cuba, and more reoently was one of the seven generals who were banished by Queen Isabella. The fact that the Cubans in Spain wUl be permitted to choose two members of the Junta is a concession which indicates that Cnba will be invited to send representatives to tbo con stitutional assembly. ' Radical Registration in Arkansas and Ten nessee.—Tho Memphis Avalanche says.: In Arkansas tbo Radical Governor, it scorns, has the same power ovor the registration of voters that Brownlow has in this Stato ; and, what is more to the point, be is now using that power in the same villainous way, and for tbo same villainous purposes. Every county known or strongly suspooted to be Democratic, is "rulod oat,” "skipped,” or only par tially registered. Here in Tonnessee, a Democrat ic candidate for Congress has withdrawn from the oaBvassin the Maury county District, for the rea eon that he finds it hopeless to compote with these infamous Gubernatorial registration frauds. Reg isters openly proclaim that they “will register no nan Who will not vote for Grant and Colfax.” If • register shows the least disposition to be honost tad Impartial, ho is at once removed by the Govern or, and a known scoundrel put in his placo. Three, |gd similar frauds, are going vn ail over the £outb. SUNDAY PAPER. Wa hope the subscribers to the Republican, and etpooially those residing in Bavannab, will sustain us in our chango of publication day from Monday to Sunday. We are fully aware that there are ob jections to a Sunday paper, but none, we feel sure, that should wolgh a feather in the scalo with tho great moral consideration of continuous Subbath work from year to year in order to got out a Mon day’s paper. We have done enough of this sort of labor in our timo, and desire, for a number of rea sons ontirely satisfactory and even imporativo to ourselves, to devote the Sabbath in future to other purposes than the struggles of every dny lifo A Christian community shculd sustain us in this good Intention. We wish to be understood as spoaking solely (pr ourselves; others may hold different views, and wo shall have no controversy with them. Our Sunday odition, besides the current nows of the day, will, so far as our room will allow, bo do voted to subjects that are legitimate for Sabbath day’s contemplation. In this respect wo bopo to make it an instrument of good and a welcome visi tor to every fireside. Wo would bore suggost to business men general ly, that as the Sunday paper will havo a city circu latlon several hundred greater than any other is sue of the week, and the people will hnvo more time to read it, advertisements that appear on that dny will possess a peoaliar advanlngo. This is a fact not to be ovorlookod. THANKSGIVING PROCLAMATION. Tho proclamation of tho President, setting apart Thursday, tho 25th day of Novembor, proximo, to bo observed by all tho pooplo of tho United States as a day for publio praise, thanksgiving and prayor, appear* In oar columns to-day. The causes moving to this proposod recognition of Divine powor and goodness, are beautifully and forcibly sot forth in the Proclamation. Tho boun tiful harvests vouchsafed from the earth, the pro gress of national enterprise and Industry, and the fraternal relations that subsist bctwcon us and tho rest of mankind, with tho prospoct of n long con tinuance, aro certainty reasons for thankfulness and praise to the Almighty Powor that shapes tho des tiny of both nations and men. Wo Bomohow, too, ohorish a presentiment, if not a conviction, that our national troublos at home aro approaching a period that tho demon of Discord will soon bo banished the land, and peace and prosperity reign ihrough- out our borders. Wo beliovo the national heart is sick of strifo; that all fcol sensibly tbo depression of a nation at enmity within itself, and that, what ever mny bo tho fnto of party, tho groat honrt of tho peoplo will riso up and demand that dissensions shall ccaso. Potential as tho voico of Gud, at least under our Republican theory, nono will daro diso- boy its bchrsts, Wo therefore are disposed to regard the Presi dent’s proclamation ns not inopportune, nnd would urgo upon all the poople of tho South tho duty of responding to tho summons. RADICAL FAIKNKSS TOWARD TIIF. south. Tho following paragraph appears, editorially, in the Now York Times, a paper that at least has seme pretension to character and a regard f< r truth; The freedom of speech that is allowed in floorgia is of rather a peculiar kind. If a sheriff rides out on the road nnd notifies a procession cf Republicans that ,; tho citit-ns" of the place to which they aro going will not permit “Radical speech-making," tbo procession is bound to turn about and disperse at once; and tho littlo formality of tbo sheriff is sup posod to afford legal authority for whatever "the citizou” tuny do in the off rt to etd^rco their decree against ‘‘Radical speecu-making - ’ Generally they tiro into the procession —kill sotuo, wound more nnd scattor tho rest By a curious coincidence these processions ore generally made up of negroes. This paragraph refers, we suppose, to tho unfortu nate affair at Camilla, and is of a kind with many such, that aro put forth by the Radical press of the North to irritate the putdic mind ng.iiutt the South and carry tho elections. Nothing cf tbo character set forth has occurred in Gcorgio, or cisowhere in the South, to the best of our knowlcd.ro nnd belief. There was no objection inida to "lUiditnl speech- making" at Camilla, but siuipiy protest against an armed mob entering tho town for political pur poses, contrary to the laws of tho State nnd a recent proclamation of our Radical Governor forbidding such assemblages, nnd directing the civil officerj to im.ipv.. >u...?.,uiuuii>y iiiiu prevent mem. me shoriff of tho county distinctly stated his lawful mission, and ns-ured them that if they wcul 1 lay nsido their arms no objection would be made to thoir mooting and speaking in tho town. This is testified to by tho shoriff and tboso who rc om- paniod him, and it is not contradicted by a single witLose. This proposition tho mob refused, nod marched into town with the greatest disorJor, where the collision occurred, caused solely by the acci dental and harmless discharge of a pistol in tho hands of a drunken mtn, whereupon tbo nogroec fired indiscriminately upon the citizens. Such aro tho facts, nnd tho editor of tho Times must have known them, if he rend the report, when bo wroto tho article quotod and wholly porvorted them. If ho had not road them, his care is moro pitiably mondacious still, for ho had no right to mako tho charge without enquiry into tho facts. We aro a close observer of evonts, a id havo yet to boor of tbe first instanco in tbo Stato of Georgia wbero Radical speaking was interrupted by tho op posing party. “MASSING ON THE CENTER.” Under this caption tho Nashvillo Union and American has a word of encouragement to tho De mocracy. It says: “Tuesdny’s wus a heavy en gagement, but tbo fighting was not general along tho wholo lino. Tho enemy unused on his center, and hold the field after a desporato ttiugglo. In November, tbo Hanks will be engaged in holding thoir own. Now York and New Jcraey will vole at home, and so will IllinuU nnd MicLignn. Tho -Jews as a class” (seo Grant’s order) will stack thoir arms and will rofueo to light as well as to trade in tho lines of any of his departments. Tho Irish and Gorman corps will deolino to inova under Colfax’s Know Nothing orders. Andrew Johnson says the forces of both sides shall deploy over tho entire field. The l’otomac, tho Mississippi and tho Rio Grande will all le linos of communication and of offenoe nnd dofence. New England and Boston will not be able to buy any more negro substitutes. The Pacific reserves of the Democracy will bo in. Let Democrats hold thoir ranks, ‘trust in Uod and keep their power dry ’ A repulse is not a defeat.” FLORIDA ITEMS. —Mrs. Sobistian Caro, of Pensacola, recently died at Greenville, Ala. —The Ocaia Banner says that the cotton crop of Florida will not oxcecd that of last year. —James L. Wycho, for somo years a Commis sioner of Madison county, and Isuue Bunting, have recently died in Madison county, suys the Messen ger of the 2d inst. Congressional Election —Tho election for Con gress in Florida is to take placo on tho last Tuesday in Deocmber, which will be the 29th day of that month. —The East Florida Banner, published at Ocala, oomplains of tbe ootton thieving that jj done on n small scalo in that vicinity, in tho night time, nnd says that several negroes hare boen shot within the past week, while in the act of stoaling. Resignation as Attorney General—Supreme Court.—James D. Westcott, Jr, rccigned bis posi tion as Attorney General on tho l&tn instant, and accepted that of Associate Justice of tho Supreme Court, and qualified as such the same day. The of fice of Attorney General, therefore, is lor the pres ent vacant Farms in Florida.—Returns received nt the General Lrnd Office in Washington show that dure ing the past month fifty four farms,} embracing 4,699 acres, were added to the productive area ol the Stato of Florida, by Icotiting at tbo land office at Tallahassee, under the operation of tbe homestead act of June 21, 1866. To the Editors of the Liverpool hfercury^ Gentlbmen:—Judging from the uniottlod and fitful state of the cotton market, it might naturally be supposed that the supply available for this uoxt yoar was likely to prove greatly in excess of the necessities of consumers. I think that an exami nation of the position of matters will entirely dis pel any suoh ideas. At this period last year the favorite crop figures vurlod from 2,600,000 to 3 000,0001 bales, and yet with evory advantage, both as regards weather nnd labor, the actual yield (excluding old cotton) did not provo much, if any. over 2,400,000 bales. There is not tho slightest ground for assuming that a larger quantity can bo gathered this year; whilo, on the other hand, there is tho positive oer- tainty that, with an early frost, tho yield must provo considerably loss. Tho ‘ bears" will doubtless make the most of the fact that the reooipts at the American ports during tho first throe months of this season are likoly to prove largely in excess of lost year, and they will try to induoe people to boliezo that this faot indicates that the crop wUl be a much larger one than tho lust, but a moment's reflection must at once dispel any such theory; for, indepen dent of the faot that the rooeipts are no indication of tbo actual yield (as a reference to tho ootton ta bles, showing tbe woekly rocoipts before the war, will clearly show), there were many reasons why tho receipts during the early part of last yoar woro unusually high t amongst othors, I may mention the prevalence of tho yellow fevor at New Orleans and Texas, and tho operations of the Cotton-tax Collector. Turning to India, tho future does not look prom ising Ail the authorities are unanimous in stating that a smaller area of ground is under cultivation, while it is notorious that the woathor during the sowing season was must unpropitious, especially In the Northwest provinces, whoro it is questionable if tho duinago done can be oven partially repaired ; so that there is dearly uothing in tho position of tbo growing crops to causo tho slightest alarm to holders of cotton. Let us lock to available supplies. On tha 19th of September tbo stocks of ootton in all Europe were as follows Liverpool London Rest of Europe... 1869. 1867. 1666. 452.350 836 650 929 250 55,659 108 650 106 900 1500 3.000 1.700 50,150 101,600 176 950 37,750 30,200 30,500 596 400 1,083,100 1,244,300 showing a deficiency of stocks on band of -136,700 bales, ns compared with 1667, nnd 647,900 bales, os compared with 1666 ; when cotton ruled at 15d per pound, nnd tho estimates of crop were 3,600,000 bales. Last yoar tho failure of the Royal, and tho questionable solvency of several other of our local banks, created a pressure which caused prices to de cline to a point which the subsequent riso to 13 l-4d. in April proved to be wholly unwarranted. From this time forward the position of car visible supplies will show a mush larger deficit, as oompared even with 1SC7, corsequont upon tho shipmonts from In dia after June being on a much smaller scale this year than last Now let us lock at tho probable import of cotton into Liverpool. PRODABLE IMPORT TO 31ST DECEMBER. America, estimated same es lost year.... 140,000 Brazil say 150,000 in excess of ail last year.... 90,000 Egyptian, saiuo us last yoar 49.U00 West India, samo as last year 19,000 East India, everything at sea to date 630,000 Stock 452,000 Total 1,260,000 This would give us a supply of 67.000 bnlcs per week, samo as last year, and leavo us with a stock of 275 000 halos on the 31st December noxt, against, 447,000 bales same time Inst year. It is quite Jm uiatcriul whether wo receive a mailer or larger sup ply Horn America thi« year, as any surplu* received must necessarily be at the expenso of our supply for next year. I would also call your attention to the fact that, in estimating tho exports, I have allowed tho deficit in export to date, and assume that tho total consumption of cotton on the continent this year, with ponco, will only bo the sumo ns it wa.* luri year with war in apprehension nearly tbo whole summer. A reference to tho oxport tabic will show that tbo deficit of the takings from this port so far arc, as noariy as possible, compel sated lor by tbo excess of shipments made direct from America, India, Ao., this year ; so that if the consumption of tho conti nent is tho sumo, tboy would require to tako from this market tho same quantity us they did last yoar. Although, looking nt tho small Surat supply likely to bo available after December, and recalling t<> intud tho pinch experienced in tho spring of this year, it is scarcely probablo that they will cliso the year with tho famine stock which thoy held oa the 31st December last. Tho above figures aro oer- tainly very strong in themselves, especially when wo remember that there are only fifteen weeks re maining in tho year, and that last year we closed with a stock of only 447,000 bales, which was re duced in February last to 266,000 bales. Tho fact is that for tho lust three yeara wo have been con suming moro cotton than tho world haB proluced. up; "n~uio'"surpTu.i ‘sices? ol ’’tVio world” To Tile’"enor mous extent of 330,000 bales, while tho cobsump ii..n in Kuropo during that period exceeded the im port by 630 000 bales, and I cun see no prospect u! a »’<>p being put to Ibis exhuustivo prieess du riug 1669 It ia universally admitted that tho position of cot- tou 'u overwhelmingly strong Why, then, should our market be in tbo unhealthy position in which it is ] A fail now is certain to produce a reaction, and by luring spinners into a belie! of security und low prices, consumption will bo fostered to an extent that must inevitably produce a repetition of the excite- rncut of April Inst Purely such fluctuations can benefit no one but speculators ; they suck up tho lilo blood ol legitim ile traders by rendering their operations hazard ms and uncertain. Of coureo I am alive to tho tact that tho lower level prices settle down to the better for every one concerned in tho trudo; but any decline to be permanent and benefi cial must be legitimate, which certainly would not be tbo case were prices forced down at tho present time Yours, Ac., Facts Liverpool, September 21, 16G3. Methodists Rejoicing Over the Election — Boston, October 14.—At the Convention of Massa chusetts Methodist Churches, in session to-day, tho Rev. Gilbert Haven proposed singing, " Praise God from whom all blessings flow” in thankfulness for what be termed tbe great victories in behalf of oace and righteousness which bad been aohieved in Ibio, Pennsylvania and Indiana.

Washington, October 13 —Tho President has is sued a proclamation appointing Thursday, Novem ber 26th, as a diy of thanksgiving, as follows; By the President of the United States of Amet ica a proclamation, in tho year which is now drawiug to its end, tho art, tho skill and tbe labor of the people of tho Uni ted States have beon employed with grantor dili gence and vigor, and on broidor fields than ever before, and the fiuits of the earth have boon gath ered into tho granary und tho storchouso in marvel ous abundance. Our highways have boen length ened and new and prolific regions havo been occu pied. Wo are permitted to hope that long pro tracted political and sectional dissonsions are at no distant day to give place to reluming harmony and fraternal affection tnroughout the Republic. Many foreign States havo entered into liberal agreements with us. whilo nations which are far off, and which heretofore hayo boon uasocial und exclusive, havo bccomo our fricuds. Tho annual poriod of rest which wo havo reached in health nnd tranquility, and which is crowned with so many blessings, is, by universal consent, a convenient und suitablo ono for cultivating personal piety nnd practicing public devotion. I, therefore, recommend that Thursday, tho 26tb day of Novembor next, be set apart and observed by all tho peoplo of the United Statos ad a day for public praise, thanksgiving and prayor to tho Al mighty Creator and Divine Ruler of tho uuivorso, by whoso ever watchful, merciful and gracious providence alono, States, no less than families and individual men, do live and luovo and havo thoir being In witness whereof I havo hereunto set my hand and caused the seal of the United States to be af fixed.

The Rumored Plot to Assassinate the President. [Washington Correspondence New York World, Oo- tober I3.J Considerable oxoltemeat exists here to-day among those who havo obtained possession of tbe nows over supposed development of a plot said to be for ie time In preparation in this city to procure the ....issination of President Johnson. Yoatorday evening a lrlend of the President's went to tho cur rency printing division of the Treasury Department and asked fora man named Frank D. Evans, anight fireman to the engines of the printing division, stating that ho was wantod at tho White Uouso Mr. MoCartee, tho superintendent of the printing division, being absent, Mr. Larmar, the chief engi neer, gave permission for Evans to leave his work Mr. Evans was taken to tho house of Colonel Wil liam O. Mooro, tho President’s privato secretary, whoro he was oxamlned as to what ho know of the assassination plot. His story looks remarkably like a faiso alarm, and can be briefly repoated: Last spring Evans and bis wife were boardiug at the houBO of his brother-in-law, named Himebur, in in Twonty-flrst street, First ward, of this city, Uimebur was formoily a Confederate offioor, but is now an intense Radical, and bolds an office under our city authorities. Ono night, duting the im peachment excitomont, Illmebur, in tho prosonco of Mr. nnd Mrs. Evans and his own wlfo, stood up in bis own parlor and displayed with great flourishing an Amoric&n flag. This flag, ho said, had boen givon him by General Butler as one of a company of conspirators organized for tho assassination of President Johnson. Evans said be foil alarmed at tho disclosure und did not know how to act-- whether to tell tho President or not. Finally ho resolved to leave Himebur’s houio, and went to bousokooplng for himself. But tbe fear of fatal results from tho conspiracy 8*111 bauntod hiui, and ho told several friends tbe story of Butler and his flag. Evans says that his wifo as well as himsolf was prepared to swear to its truth, llimobur, it ap pears, was captain of a negro company, composed of fifty moD, whom ho drilled evory night, and those negroes were supposed to bo in tbo plot. Colonel Mooro told the President something about tbo con spiracy last Sunday, while out driving with his Ex cellency, but tho latter paid no attention whatever to tho matter. Mr Johnson treats tho matter with indifference Ho ban not seen cither Himebur, Evans or his wifo at all, and thereioro tho story, which has been most industriously circulated, that he seat for Evans to pump him, or ordored him to be sent to Hancock's headquarters, is entirely er roneous. The whole story is evidently a piece of extravagance on tho part of Himebur, magnified and perhaps embellished by tbe fears and imagi nation of Evans. By somo friends of the President it is regarded in a mure sorious light., Tboy believe that a conspiracy really did exist about tho time of tho impeachment, but that it failed to ripen in tiuio, ami that now all danger is past, and that nothing is to bo gained by Beriuus investigation. Others say that Evans and Himebur havo been unfriendly, and that tho story was invented by Evans to injure the other. Your correspondent had a talk with tho President this afternoon on tho subject, and found him not in tho least disturbed. TELEGRAPHIC. lu Wo learn that tho funeral of General Cobb in Athens on Thursday last was the largest and most imposing coremony of tho kind ever witnessed in that placo. Tho special train from Savannah which convoyed his remains reached Athens early Thursday morn ing, in charge ol an escort, composed of delega tions from bavannab, Muoon, At lent a and Augusta, and a largo number cf the special friends of tho dc- coiscJ, who joined them at tho different points on tho road. All tho business houses, offices and store Athens were closed during the dny, and the country pooplo for miles around the town entno in to pay this last sad tribute to tbeir departed friend. Tho procession to the cemetery was composed of the special escort before alluded to, tho members of tbe Masonic Lodge, tbe UJ1 Fellows’ Lodge, the two Societies of tho State University, tho members of the liar, ttie President and Professors of tho Uni- venity, the Clergy and citizens generally ol Athens and the adjoining counties. Religious oxcrciscs woro conducted by tbo Rev. Mr. Flinn, for a long timo Chaplain of General Cobb’s command in Virginia, the Kov. Mr. Warren, tho p uuor ol tho Baptist Church in Macon, and tho Rev Mr. Key, of the Methodist Church. Tho ser mon of Mr Hirm was an eloquent and feeling trib- u'e to tbe virtues and excellencies of Gonor.il Cobb's character, and its kind and touching sentiments met a hearty response from tho griei-strickon communi ty which crowded around tbo bier of their esteemed nnd veneratod friend. Although Gonor.il Cobb had m>t made an outward profession of religion, it is known that for months post he has been anxiously seeking that consolation which ulono ia found in tho sen ice of tbo Lord and the practice of His precepts. While at the N*-rih ho had announced to the mem ber-' "f his f-.tllilv who wore then wilt. him. •*»<»'»» termination, as soon as He returned tu-me, to put ou tho habiliments of Christ by uniting himself to tbo Baptist Church, ©t which his wife was a member. Fow mtn have ever lived in Athotis who so on denred themselves to tho whole feoplo as General Cobb. An 1 the deep and pervading grief of the entire population of the city showed how much and how well thoy loved him. Each person, male and female, in that long procession, wept over bis bier as though it rontait.ed tho reinuius of a dear rela tive Even tho innocent prattle of the little rhil dren wus hushed in tho presenco cf that grief- stricken community, nnd the streets and thoro :gh- fires of tho city woro ns still nnd silent as the grave—Auguita Chronicle and Sentinel.

SPECIAL NOTICES. GEORGIA RAILROAD MATTERS. The following items of railroad intelligence, clipped from tho Maoon Journal and Messenger of yes terday, potscss interest for many of our readers: Progress of the Macon and Brunswick Bail• road.—We learn from tho President that oight hun dred bands are now at work upon this road, and that in thirty days the number will bo two thousand That the road is under contract almost tho entire distanco, and that many of tho great builders of tho Stato are at work upon it.

Mr. Adams at Charleston. CuAJiLKHToir, October 17 —A large meeting was held this ovoning to hoar John Cjuinoy Adams. Mr Adams said ho bad come hero by invitation, and therefore folt at liberty to give that most unploasant of oommodiitea good mlvico. Ho said ho had boon a free soller, then a Republican, voted for Lincoln' was a supporter of tho war, nnd an onemy of slavery. This was his position at the oloso of tbe war, but thon, whon the Southern people had laid down their arms and wore ready to como back, he was reedy to take them by tbe band and receive thorn. Many of the boat men of the Republican parly bold the same view. Thon oatno tho thir teenth amendment abolishing slavery, ratified by ail the Sonthern States. "Thon tho fourtoonth amendment, containing a clause disfranchising the Southern leaders. lie thought the Southern poople right in rejecting it. Thoy oould do no loss. He stated that the North bas always considered tho peo ple of the South who engaged in tho war as robots, and whon oonquored as prlsonors of war, who had no rights. Thoy appeal to tbo constitution, but it is not thoir constitution—they fought against it. And then the reoonstruotion acts regard the Soutborn States a3 foreign territory. Tho chief difficulty between tho Northern nnd Southern people ia not a difference of opinion; thoy think noariy nlikoi but unfortunately thoy do not seem to understand oaoh othor. The peoplo, in a small way, still had the traditional idea of a Southern man with a dirk in one hand and a pocket pistol in tho othor; a cigar on one Bido of his mouth, and a quid of tobacoo in tho other; indolent and doininoering; intolorant of any difference of opinion. Since coming down him self ho found that the newspapers have not told the truth about the South Ho hail spent revoral days in intimate concourso with General Wade Hampton, and said ho has learned bis views of the future, nml he iB now satisfied that Hampton is no moro of robol than himsolf (Adams). He then snid that tbe people of the South must not expect much from any political party, ff Grant is elected it will not bo as bard for tho South ns many here appear to think. They should remem ber, howevor, abovo all things, that whothor thoy like it or not, they could do nothing; thoy could not again go to war. Whoro would they got ammuni tion, or even bannors 'I Tho policy of tho South is ponce. Tho North desires nn areurnneo that sla very will not bo ro established, neither in the old form nor yot as a punishment for crirno; and there must bo porfcct freedom cf speech. Thon, and not till then, can there bo perfect rcconstruc'i m, har mony and reunion. IIo spako words of kindness to tho negroes, who wero present in largo numbers, assuring them that it was to their interest to eland hy thoir friends whom they bad known longest, and cot bo carried away by tho fair premises of carpet-baggere, who only want their votes. Whon the prosoct questions aro sottletl, ns they soon must bo, whito would stand by whito, and black mu-*t go down unless tho no- grecs abandon their present course, lie said he was opposed to universal suffrage, but wus oati-fied that tho people of the South tiro ready to concede impartial suffrage to whito and black, us in the case of tho Radical Stato of Massachusetts. With the extinction of slavery, ho said, all causo for bad fuel ing between the North and South had passed away, and ho hopod that scon Mjscychu'e'.tj and S'.uth Carolina would again stand silo by sido as broiliera and frioDds, us thoy had duno in the days ol the revolution.
