We take special pleasure in calling the attention of the public to the advertisements of every business house who appreciates the tact that the Republicans, as a class, have some money to spend, and they look to our columns to know where to go and do it to the best advantage. Os course there are other places in town where Republican greenbacks are not refused, but we don’t know it from any advertisement in our columns. Y. 7*l. L. Association. We listened patiently, and with some degree of interest, to Dr. Ford, Sr.’s, Lec ture on “Popular Government, as Illus trated in the United States and the Confede rate States,” last night, at Masonic Hall- This was the second Lecture by Dr. F., upon the same subject, and he occupied some time in a recapitulation of his former Lecture. Although wo took notes during its delivery—only interrupted by the ap plause, often repeated, whenever allusion was made to the “Lost Cause”—wo do not think our readers would care much to have us repeat here the arguments used, or con clusions arrived at. The Dr. well remarked, that the “spirit of the age was the spirit of freedom”—that is certainly true in the present history of our common country. He went on further to say that, “this is a new age, an age of humanity, old things are rapidly passing away and all things are be coming new.” We certainly agree and en dorse this sentiment, as one eminently ap propriate to the present status of political affairs, as well as in religion, medicine, mechanics, and many other of the pursuits of life. The lecturer then went on to speak of the increase of knowledge, and the birth of nations in a day—referring to the defunct Confederacy as anew nation—and for four years or less, we acknowledge, that it was a sickly and feeble infant,who never learned to walk, and died of its own inherent weakness. We disagree in toto with the propo sition that in the attempted revolt of the Southern States the mission of the United States was fulfilled, or in a a long shot of sucli a consummation. When, in the long vista of time, down which the generations to come will follow us, an hun dred States will no doubt be added, and the stars be studded over the same National Flag which, in days past, and which will, and which does now, wave so triumphantly over tho American States. But we cannot say much more now. We can barely allude to tho peroration, Jwt we again are compelled to say that we disagree to the postulates and conclusions of the speaker, for we believe that there is no other cause now to be considered by the Southern people but that of reconstruction under the Congressional bills. The Court*. Recorder’s Court, Alderman Tweedy, Mayor pro tern, on yesterday had two eases determined to wit: Levi Sullivan—lßth Section—fined the cost of suit, and upon payment of the same the said Timothy was discharged. Marion Herning, for violation of the same Section was incontinently told to “Vamose the Ranch” and not show his corporesity in this bailiwick again, or be would find that be would have to do the State or the City rather some extra service, by laboring upon that newly devised institution lor offenders— the Chain-Gang. Bunk Rowe for the same offence, a fioe of $lO and costs of suit. Before Judge McLaws—special session o* County Court—several cases came up, both whites and blacks. A pretty good attend ancc of colored men, to hear and learn something of the machinery of the law, and some interested in the cases of Jim Webster (colored), a lad of fourteen years, for larceny from the house—stole a hat —sentenced to four months on the Chain Gang, -and costs. This was Jim’s second offense, and his Honor, after giving him some “good talk” about his youthful indiscretions and his former three months’ service, sent him forward. Allen Thomas, for simple larceny, and Peter Jones—a rather hard looking case— of being an accessory of tbe fact. Both pleading guilty, were sentenced to two months’ service in mending tbe highways and by-ways of the city. “Turnips and turnip greens” were the moving cause to the larceny. Ilis Honor had before him, night before last, two white men for malicious mischief ', and upon investigation they were both com mitted to the “lock-up” upon the evidence produced before his Honor. The malicious mischief thus brought to light seemed to be the damaging of Mr. E. 11. Rogers’recently erected new house, corner of Greene and Elbert streets, to the amount of $250, by the wanton bedaubing of tbe painted rooms. Punishment of the severest known to the laws should be meted out to miscreants who are guilty of such mean exhibitions of a depraved nature.

A HONG FOR THE CAMPAIGN. BT NED M.INNER. From mountain! downward to the sea There goes a rallying cry ; And every man for peace and right Now lifts his banner high. Como brothers front the hill and wood Around our leader draw, And crowd the forefront of the strife With many a loud hurrah! Then come, boys, come, And join the Union elan ; Then cheor, boys, ebeor, For Builook is our man. From mouth to mouth goes forth the cry, The Union must bo saved, For this we gird our armor on, For this the storm wo’vo braved. So lot the opposition fret, And nice distinctions draw: We’ll cheor tho Constitution on With many a loud hurrah ! Then come, boys, came, And join tho Union clan ; Then ehcor, boys, cheer, For Bullock is our man. Tho Right will need each freeman’s vote, And norvo each patriot's heart, Come let us sweep all wrong away, And heal tho nation’s smart. We’ll wheel old Georgia into line, For progress, truth and law, And then we’ll make the welkin ring With many a loud hurrah ! , Then come, hoys, come, And join the Union clau j Then cheer, boys, ehcor, For Bullock is our mao. r« liny—but True. During the war, there was a chap who held the office of Superintendent of an Im proved Pistol Factory near Philadelphia, Pa., making pistols to “kill” us with, and upon its conclusion, with carpet bag in hand, as an Insurance Agent, came South to try and save our lives, or to pay our heirs for our dying ; and then like an unmitigated rebel, is cheek by jowl with the new fledged Fish, Flesh and Fowl party, calling themselves* par excellence, the Democratic party. “What a fish a toad is.” Doric l.uiilcriilsiu. We sent our reporter to the “Democratic pow-wow” on yesterda)’, but he was not allowed an entrance to the Sanhedrim of the new light Democracy, assembled for the purpose of nominating a candidate for the Fifth Congressional District. He did not have the password of this “Know Nothing Convocation,” and therefore was not ad mitted. The order was as reported to us : “let none but democrats enter !” Our reporter had no ticket and could not, there, fore, show his handsome countenance in the assembly of the mongrel crowd therein got together. Homestead and Italic! Laive. It is somewhat amusing to know that there are in our State many persons who were the most blatant opposers to the aclion of the Georgia Convention, who have abused and villified its members, more than the “army in Flanders,” at the acts and doings of the Convention, but they are the first ones to seek shelter under the order of Gen. Meade confirming and establishing the ordinances passed at Atlanta, until otherwise confirmed by the people or changed from Headquarters, That is Democratic—modern, bogus, so called, Democratic. Consistent in being in consistent, and ready at all times to take ad vantage of the known benefit of the laws when enforced, which they will be, and what is better (as we happen to know), confirmed by the Congress of the United States when ever the Constitution of Georgia is ratified and submited to that body. The mountain Until I.aborcd and “Nary Mouse” Game G'orlli. On yesterday, at 12 o'clock m., the Conven tion of the so-called Democracy met at the Democratic Club Room on Ellis st., in rear o( the Globellotel. We were not present, because —although considered good looking enough to go almo t anywhere—we were met with one of the old Know Nothing dodges, “none admitted but Democrats.” Os course we couldn’t “come in,” and we depend on out side information. If the “brethren” had shown us the courtesy of a fine seat we would have taken great pleasure in going in, and we are sure would not have made them ap pear as a great convention other than the facts would have warranted us in doing. Skies llriglil. The Republican party of Georgia never had a more encouraging prospect than at this time. From the mountains to the sea board, and from the Savannah to the Florida line, we are daily in receipt of the cheering news that “all’s well.” The bogus Demo cracy arc “heaving and setting” every where—but the load they have to carry is too much for them; they pull too hard, and every step they take they sink deeper and deeper in the mud and mire of the “Slough of Despond.” All that is needed by the Republican party is cohesion, concentration of forces, and thorough ventilation of the principles of the party, and, ere two moons more, the people of Georgia will be saved from the utter and irremediable ruin that stares them in the face. Work, then, Relief men ! Work, then, Bullock men! Work, then, every man who has any love for his country j Let no obstacle stand in your way—let no excuse be allowed for non-action. Listen to no specious verbiage, such as Democratic editors may indite, Democratic speakers say, or Democratic flagmen blab around. Truth Wlirout. The New York 'limes (Democrat) says that “the Richmond Whirl hopes that some of the millions of New York capital now seeking investment in real estate will be directed toward Virginia. It says that ‘lands are cheaper, more productive, and quite as safe in Virginia as in New York.’ This is gratifying intelligence. We have been told so often, and so emphatically by the leading organs of public opinion, that the South was on the verge ot a war of races, that negro suffrage was sure to involve ruinous taxation, repudiation of debts, and other evils utterly subversive to the confi dence which capitalists always require, that wo have been chary in urging investments at the South. If the Whig is right, matters must he improving in Virginia at all events,” [Advertisement.] S.ood* at a Sucrlf ice. t The purchasers of dry goods should not fail to take advantage of the opportunity offered, at 190 Broad street.

Wo havo noticed that our Democratic Club makers in this city have a had habit of attuminy that certain gentlemen of respecta bility and standing would act with them, and thereupon announcing there names as Presidents, Vice Presidents, etc., etc., and uow the samo trick has been attempted by the “Ku-Klux” in Savannah. We commend to our readers the bold, manly letter of Col. Robb: Editor Uefcbucan — By tha proceedings of a Democratic meeting held in this city on Saturday, as published in the Advertiser of this date, I am informed that I am appoint ed by the chairman of that meeting to rep resent it in Senatorial Convention to be held in Blackshear on Tuesday next. I take this method of informing those interested that I respectfully decline to serve the Democratic party in that or any other capacity. At no time of my life, past or present, have I had any principles or sympathies with that party; and I had supposed my political views were too well known to bo mistaken by any one. I will simply add, that about the time the meet ing above alluded to was in session I was actually presiding over au assemblage of Republicans in this city, met together for the purpose of devising means to secure a better and more efficient organization of the Republican party in this city and dis trict, with which ‘party I have been con nected from this organization.

Chase maintained that he had the right to make preliminary decisions subject to approval. Drake appealed. Managers sustained the appeal, Butler saying that he was glad the issue arose when ruling was in their favor. The defense took no part in the contest. A motion to retire prevailed—Chase voting aye to decide the tie. Doolittle and Sauls berry were the only Democrats voting nay.

Washington, March 31.—Judge Black, yesterday, in the Supreme Court, desired to argue its to the effect of tho recent legislation on McArdle. During the colloquy, Judge Grier said he felt called upon to vindicate himself from whatever of obloquy or censure may attach to any one in this matter. That he thought the failure to decide the McArdle case will be considered as a design on the part of the Court to wait for legislation, to relieve them from the performance of an unpleasant duty. Grier closed with “ Pudet hae approbire dici ct non potui sc repelli." 1 am ashamed such an opprobium should be cast upon the Court, and that it can’t be refuted. There will be further proceedings to day. The House adopted the conference report on the tax bill, which was sent to tha Presi dent. The Supreme Court postponed argument in the McArdle case until its next term. The Senate proceeded with the usual routine of business. General Hancock has issued an order to day, assuming command of the Division of tho Atlantic, with his headquarters in Wash ington. The division embraces the depart ment of the East ,of Washington, and of the Lakes. Butler volunteered to repeat after inaudi ble witnesses, but the defence objected. The vote in private session to sustain Chase was 31 to 19. In the Supreme Court case of Martin and McGill, a motion to advance the cause was denied. It was an appeal from a Circuit in Florida in a murder case. The Court suggested a remedy in the shape of an application of this Court for habeas corpus and a writ of certiorari against the District Court. The counsel took no action on suggestion. This case Is similar to the McArdle case. The McArdle argument.was postponed, on motion of Carpenter, who was not prepared; The managers made a tremendous etfort to day, saying that should the point go against them, they would led compelled to retire and consult the House. When the decision was announced, Butler said the managers desired to retire for con sultation. Little evidence was taken to day. The President's friends seem in excellent spirits. It has transpired that the President has changed the form of the appointment blanks to conform to the Tenure-01-Oflice act, after that law passed. Genera!
