We earnestly request any person desiring to send money to this office, for any purpose, to forward it either by postoffice order or Southern Express—the latter preferred. a On no account send it by letter, as we are continually receiving complaints of money having been sent which has never reached us. Friends, take warning, ts Godejr’c Lady’s Book (or April. The enterprising Quinn, News Agent, nearly opposite our office, has the above old-established fashion monthly for April for sale at his counter. Obligation. The thanks of the friends of Colonel R, B. Bcli.ock,the gallant standard-bearer of Resto ration, are due to the distinguished editor “east of the Ocouee,” who nominated Mr. Reese at the Democratic anti-Union Con vention, iu Macon, a day or two since. The gentleman from Richmond has general-ly been on the losing side, and this nomination we have Reese-n to believe settles the —. Tm year oi ouDueo "is coming. Pleasant Visit. We passed three or four days, of the past week, quite pleasantly in Atlanta— the future capital of the Empire State of the South—and were more than ever im pressed with the conviction that the day is not remotely distant when the “Gate City” shall have become the'leading metropolis of our favored sunny clime. In common with the spirit of architec tural improvement exhibited by the citr zens of Atlanta, the United States Gov. eminent is erecting, upon the locality known as the Race Grounds, buildings for the U. S. Barracks. The track, comprising fifty acres, is enclosed with a high plank fence, painted white, a mile in length, with an ornamental gateway for vehicles or pedestrians. The buildings will accommo date a regiment—one thousand men; the ten main barrack buildings, we allude to, each adapted to the accommodation of one hundred men. To every other one of these buildings there is a mess room, containing a kitchen for two companies, constructed with the same view to comfort and dura bility as are the main buildings—each barrack having its laundry of four rooms, twenty feet square, each room to accommo date one laundress, generally the wife of the Sergeant. The officers' quarters are two story build ings, eight rooms, eighteen by twenty feet. Each field and staff officer has a separate house, containing six rooms, with commodi ous kitchen in the rear. There are five of these buildings—one each for the Colonel Lieutenant Colonel, Major, Surgeon, and Chaplain. In the Northern part of the grounds is an immense hospital—the central portion of which, containing rooms for the convenience of the Surgeons, is two stories high. The wards are in the two wings, each one hun dred feet long; piazzas running entirely around both wings, affording an admirable promenade. It it supposed that the completion of the Barracks and grounds will cost nearly one hundred and fifty thousand dollars. About three hundred workmen are at present em. ployed. The work is being performed under the direction of Gen. Saxton and Lieutenant Wray, who have displayed excellent judg" ment in the selection of the locality, and in the arrangemeut of the quarters. Os course, we “put up” at Nickerson’s famous National Hotel, and were under many vui s^— . »r> tho verv efficient corps of officials—Messrs- Wheklock, Meistbr. and Harris. Loan Atsoeiatiom* and the Home* Head Bill. The following is the Homestead Bill, as finally passed by the Convention of this State: Section 1. Each head of a family, or guardian, or trustee of a family or minor children, shall be entitled toa homestead of realty to the value of two thousand dol lars in specie, and personal property to the value of one thousand dollars in specie, both to be valued at the time they are set apart. And no court, or ministerial officer in this .State, shall ever have jurisdiction or authority to enforce any judgment, de cree, or execution against said property so set apart (including such improvements as may be made thereon, from time to time) excf.pt Jor taxes, money borrowed and ex pended in the improvement of the homestead, or for the purchase money of the same, and for labor done thereon, or material furnished therefor, or removal of encumbrances thereon. And it shall be the duty of the General Assembly, as early as practicable, to provide, by law for tho setting apart and valuation of said property, and to enact laws for the full and complete protection and security of the same to the sole use and benefit of said families as aforesaid.

Washington, March 14.—General Grant decide* that the reconstruction laws do not authorise Military Commanders to change election days fixed by Conventions. Florida Republicans here say that the opposition to the Constitution in that State is mainly confined to negroes. General Grant roceived a dispatch from General Thomas saying, in effect, that the enemies of the present government of Tennessee were organising for resistance to the laws, and to get control of the State. Grant replied, ordering Thomas to use all the forces at his command to preserve peace, and protect the Stato authorities in the execution of laws, and to report if more troops were needed. Persons conversant with the Senatorial feeling say that the real danger to the Presi dent has narrowed down to the fact of ap pointing Thomas Secretary of War ad interim . Butlor’s charges stand no chance, and the illegality of Stanton’s removal is doubted by many Senators. Joseph H. Bradley has filed a petition for a mandamus, to compel the District Supremo Court to restore him to the Bar. Secretary Browning divides his attention between the Interior Department and the Attorney General’s office. Alexander 11. Stevens is here. Revenue to day, $314,000 ; for the week. $2,500,000 ; for the year $137,500,000. No session of the Senate to day. The House devoted its time to speeches. The Erie Bonds. New York, March 14. —Gen.
