The diMatisfied politician! in the four Wards have held their meeting* end or ganised for aotion. Tho gentlemen who attended have voted aye on re»olntion» prepared by the leader*, lUtened to tho oft-repeated declaration of Radical usurpa tion, and exhaled considerable of the spirit of 1061. At these gathering*, we are inolinod to think that the "popular heart” did not "beat” quite aa hard a* was intended. The ranting* of men who duped their old-time follower*, and sold them to a bogn* Con federacy, and whose hands are red with the blood of Union meD, making such de monstrations beneath the holy ensign of liberty, is a horrid mockery—a worse than hypocrisy. They gather together in tbe name of cHizens of tho United States, to reiterate their praises of its arch enemy— to ourse its institutions, and the represent atives of the people. They say that the people of Georgia are threatened with degradation and ruin ; why did they not see the satno in 1861 ? They say that tho consequences of tho consumma tion of tbe scheme with which they' are threatened, will be the fomenting of bitter animosities, and a debasing despotism. We ask, who has done more toward the foment ing of bitter animosities than themselves— and what more debasing despotism could exist than that which has heretofore existed in this State ? One of their orators speaks of the lofty Caucasian and of the inferiority of the other race. If they are your inferiors, why do you fear to place within their grasp all that belongs to beings created in the image of God—are you afraid they will outstrip you? If their minds will not admit of the same degree of expansion as yours, they certainly can never rise as high as yourself in the scale of intellectuality. Why then do you hesitate to extend them the peace* ful ballot ? The name of Andrew Johnson is men tioned, and all unite in a hurst of applause, and acknowledge a debt of gratitude to this specimen of their handiwork, and to all military commanders who have shown "their devotion to the principles of law and liberty,” by trampling upon the laws of Congress that they were employed to carry out. Oh, the jewel of consistency 1 An other speaker, striking a theatrical attitude, says that he feels as if he “was already a slave.” This may he, for many there are who are slaves to the worst of masters —to their own sordid passions and unwarrant, able prejudices. Another says “when the Southern people laid down their arms, they were promised protection, provided they departed tor their homes.” Very true, but have their rights ever been encroached upon ? Is there a single instance on record where a Southern man has been hung, shot, or cowhided for his opinions ? Was there ever an assemblage of "rebel” sympa thizers pounced upon by an armed and or ganized hand, and butchered without mercy because of their political sentiments ? Again, he says, "if the motives of the Re publicans succeed, American liberty is destroyed, and the household'of the Union will be ruined.” Reflect, oh prophet. If it is destroyed, it will be by those who are seeking to revive sectional prejudices, and who are opposed to the advancement of civilization and improvement. Another speaker opens a long and vulgar tirade of abuse upon all Northern men who have seen fit to make this State their home, especially upon those who, in tho Convention, are laboring for reconstruction. Is this conciliation, or is it the “forment ingjtf bitter animosities”? This prating, and mock parade of loy alty and love for the Constitution, is not only disgusting, but ridiculous, and its hol lowness can not fail to make itself appa rent to every discerning mind that is not biased by unfounded prejudices. If they wish for a restoration of the Union, why do they so violently assail those who only ask for justice to all men, and who are willing to extend the hand of friendship to all of their gallant though conquered foes, who are willing to bury the past, and renew their allegiance to the old flag that shielded them in infancy—and that will protect them now 1 The Hair Extermination. The ladies will be fortunate if they get through the present fashions with any hair on their heads at all. What with frizzing, and crisping, and rats, cats, mice and wa terfalls, diamond powder, and gold hugs, they have been abusing their hair for tbo last six or eight years. The last form of abuse we notice is “siugeings a praetico which, the barbers have persuaded the ladies, “seals the points," “makes tho hair moist,” and “keeps it from splitting.” If the barbers succeed in bringing this fashion in, they are welcome to all they can make. We trust their fair customers will, all of them, be obliged to come hack to them for wigs, and thus still further in crease their business. We trust they will singe all the hair off their hfeads without the exception of so much as a lovc-lock. We are ready, in fact, to hurl any and every form of capiliary anathema upon the cus tom, and those who aro foolish enough, and weak enough, and silly enough to adopt it. It is time a strong word was spoken in favor of hair. We will be a nation of bald heads. The mother cannot look at the bald head of her baby and console herself with the reflection that nature will event ually cover it. What right has the little thing to hair? Its mother has had hor’s frizzled off, and crimped off, and singed off; its father lost his own hair poring over his ledger or his law books at tbo office. A baby that has hair, or over ex pects to have hair, will be a lutus nalurte within ten years, if the present fashion goes on. But never mind, ladies~it is now the fashion ; get singed, by all means. —— [Advertisement.] Code of Ocorfla, A copy of the New Code of Goorgiu, neatly bound in full Law sheep, and inter leaved, can he had at this office.

Had taken several medi cines, with but little or no benefit. He commenced with Humphrey’s Cough Pills, no 7—one pill three times a day, and soon found himself improving—his cough milder and softer, hoarseness passed olf, strength and appetite improved, and in a lew weeks was entirely well, having taken no other medicine. feb2l ts f Advertisement.] Legal Blanks.

The House saves the privilege of pre senting other charges to sustain impeach ment, and replying to the • President’s answers to the above ten charges. The nine charges are simply charges on Stanton’s removal. The tenth applies to Emory, in an interview, wherein the President asked, “Am I to understand that the President of the United States cannot give an order but through the General-in-Chief or Gen. Grant ?” After saying “Yes,” Emory withdrew'. Congressional. Washixotox, February 29.— Senate— The proceedure in impeachment was under con sideration all day.
