We notice among the ordiuauces ol the South Carolina Constitution Convention, one dividing Pickens District into two counties. The Western half to be called Pickens, and the Eastern half to be called Oconee county, we presume in houor of the “Governor east of the Oconee.” Save Me from My Friend*. So might pray the lately defunct candi date of the Tories of Georgia—Judge Irwin—when lie reads the “oily gammon’’ of the “Ex-Governor East of the Oconee” in his Sunday morning’s issue; for verily such complimentary language, from a paper who, never to our knowledge, has ever hoisted the Irwin flag since he has been in the field, could not be taken by us without very many grains of allowance. W e should doubt most consounded’.y such fulsome “soft sawder,” and hesitate a long time before we would accept it ns anything but an attempt at “making game.” “Anolhcr It icliiuonil in the Field." Gen. John B. Gordon has been put up by the bogus Democratic aud the Tory press of the State, to supersede Reese and Irwin as the candidate of the opposition. We had an inkling of this some days ago, but it was not settled until our old friend, “Granny Steele,” comes out in his Sunday's issue. Some days since we told the Tories that they had no leader since they repudiated Jenkins, and that for every ten days, until the elec tion, anew candidate would be started, it seems that our prophetic sentence is coming true. Halt !--I>res»! We are under a degree of alarm for some of our Tory friends. We candidly acknowl edge our “up the street friend,” the Chroni cle if Sentinel, our old school chum Sneed of the Macon Telegraph, our quondam friend Granny Steele of the Atlanta Intelligencer, and numerous other unredeemed rebellious members of the Press gang of our State, for the reason that Order No. 51, from General Meade’s headquarters is such a soekdologer as few of them can staud up under in their wild career. Boys, be aisy now, will you ? Christian. Mr. W. H. Appleton, of the firm of Appleton Brothers, New York, proposes to donate some of liis means to establish within the Diocese of Georgia, under the supervision, selection, and control of Bishop Beckwith, an “Orphans’ House,” for the benefit of orphan’s of Episcopalians. Mr, A. is a wealthy man, and has the good of his Church and his destitute brethren so much at heart, that he is now on a tour of observation, with the Bishop of Georgia, seeking out an effective means of doing good. May the Lord prosper him and his object. We may mention that Mr. A. was one of the urgent advocates of Bishop Beckwith’s acceptance of a call to New York. The Griffin Postmaster Again. The postmaster at Griffin, Ga., had bettor, we think, attend to the legitimate duties of office, and let politics alone for the future, in his business communications. He will have his hands full if he will do his duty.—Na tional llepublican. The Republican is not the only Radical paper in Georgia that has abused the Post master at Griffin for performing his duty, in not permitting their publications to pass through his office without paying postage. Dave's shoulders are broad, so lay on, ye seal lawags. —Griffin Star. We have no objection, in the world to Mr Dave, Postmaster at Griffin, enjoying his own political (and religious, too, if ho has a»y religion) opinions, but we protest against he or any other official or business man, mixing business with politics and religion. There’s too much of this sort of thing now adays—and while we cheerfully agree to disagree with all who differ with us in the questions of the day, wo condemn as puerile and contemptible all efforts to leave the plain, beaten track of business, by business men, to dabble in political or religious matters. Are you satisfied now ? The Georgia Ilapti*! Stale Convention Will hold its next session with the First Baptist Church of this city, commencing on Friday the 24th instant. The following railroad companies will pass delegates to the Convention for one fare, they paying full fare in coming, and return free, by presenting certificates of being a member of the Convention Georgia Railroad, Macon and Augusta, Macon and YVestern, Atlanta and Wes*- Point, Southwestern, Atlantic and Gulf.

I have been suffering from Piles for twenty-eight years, the last eight of which I had been almost unfitted for business of any kind and had no hope of a cure. A nephew of mino had suffered fifteen years with the same complaint; he[wcnt to Philadelphia, was four months under Dr. Pancost; submitted to an operation with tho knife, and was finally cured, for which he paid one thousand dollars, besides his expenses to and from Philadelphia. I called on Professor Roberts and received three treatments, by Animal Mag neticism, at his hands, and was entirely cured, and am well; yet, for which I paid twenty dol lars. I would not to-day be placed again in tho condition you found me ten months ago, and with as little hope of a cure as I had before your three treatments, for twenty thousand dollars. Y'ery truly yours, J. L. Grace, 336 Broad St, Augusta, (la. AUGUSTA MARKETS. Monday, April 6—P. M. IINANCIAL.—Wo note no change in this de partment of businoss and make no alteration in our report of Saturday. COTTON.—The market opened to day at the prices of Saturday, and wo hoard of 300 hales sold at 30 cents, but later advices collapsed the market, and at tho close the price had receded to 28c. for strict Now York Middlings, with rath er a feeling of despondency. The cause of this reaction seems to be the very largo salos made in Liverpool, rather overstepping proper hounds and causing a darning up of the usual channels. YVe make no quotations of other articles, as there has been no radical change. [correspondence. Savannah, April 5, 1868. Editor National Republican: Dear Sir— Our Congressional candidate Dr. J. W. Clift, is oetivcly engaged in canvassing the District. Last night he was to have spoken at Valdosta, Lowndes county, but the meeting was broken up by a Democratic row. A telegraphic dispatch, just received, states that a large quantity of gun powder was found under the building in which the meeting was held, evidently placed there for the purpose of destroying the entire audience. The Mayor of that town has callod n meeting of the citizens, to expres* their indignation at the attempted dastardly act. Great excitement provails. Midnight assassinations and gun powder plots seem to be the only means relied upon by the opposition for tho defeat of the Constitution and its udvocates. Tho means are worthy of tho end in view. Nevertheless, all looks well for Bulloc k and the Constitution. * * * .♦« CHEROKEE GEORGIA. Editors Republican : You will not be surprised, I suppose, to learn that Cherokee Georgia, although not strictly a Relief section, is going largely and heartily for Ratification and Bullock. At a county meeting in Dawson, on the 28th, out of about two hundred white voters present, not a dissenting voice was heard against Bullock and Ratification. A have heard from other adjoining counties, and the response is “Ratification and Col. Bullock.” I am sorry that we have so few mail facilities. This will work against us, as the destructionists misrepresent the Con stitution ; but the people are out-spoken wherever they have been able to learn tho truth, and the friends are doing all in their power to place tho Constitution in every voter’s hand. Etowah. [From the N. Y. Times THE CONNECTICUT ELECTION. The Democrats are carrying on the cam paign in Connecticut at a disadvantage. Their demoralized condition as a national party seriously affects their strength and prospects in the State canvass. Indeed the contest in Connecticut is, to all intents and purposes, a national eoutest. It is an affair of outposts—and of course not decisive of the general result; but it is waged never theless on national issues, under sentiments and impulses common to the great mass of the contending parties, and indicative of the great drift and tendency of the coming contest. The Democrats present neither a general platform of principles nor a candidate. They are not agreed among themselves upon either. On the financial questions which will enter largely into the Presidential can vass, it cannot be /airly claimed that the Republicans have very greatly the advantage of them. They certainly have' not as yet come to any decisive understanding among themselves as to the ground they will occupy on this subject. But in every other respect they have very greatly the advantage of the Democratic party. They'arc agreed upon the leading features of their national policy, and there has ceased to be any difference among them as to their candidate for tho Presidency. General Grant, it is conceded on all hands, will be the Republican nominee. The election in Connecticut will afford a preliminary test of Gen. Grant’s strength, which will not be without its value. He is pre-eminently tho candidate of the Republi can party —and not ot any wing or section of it. He runs, not as a Radical, nor as a Conservative, but as representing the national ideas and sentiments held by both in com mon. While the Radicals cannot claim that he is pledged to their extreme theories, either of black suffrage or of white disfran chisement—the Conservatives do not pre tend that he demands restoration now on the original basis of Presidents Lincoln and Johnson. It is quite clear from bis declara tions and acts that he recognizes, as do the Conservative Republicans, that the time when that policy would be wise or safe, has passed—and that reconstruction upon a broader and more democratic basis, under Congressional authority, has become a necessity. But he is pre-eminently a man of practical habits—governed and guided by a clear judgment and a vyise appreciation of exigencies, rather than by personal opinions or abstract ideas; of a generous aud mag nanimous turn of mind, yet never disposed to yield anything of the public good to sec tional or factious demands. Gen. Grant’s election to the Presidency will begin anew era in the post bellum ad ministration of our Government. It will signalize a marked change in the public temper. Hitherto the dominant feeling of the North has been that the late rebels would obtain political control in the South, deny the blacks all practical enjoyment of their newly acquired rights, and infuse the ideas and aims for which they fought into the general conduct of the Government. This apprehension will disappear with General Grant’s election. The Republican party, relieved of this fear, will lose much of its restless bitterness. Feeling secure in the triumph of its leading principles, it will be disposed to deal generously with the people of the Southern States, and the Southern people themselves, finding their last hope of a reactionary victory gone in the defeat of the Democratic party, will acquiesce in the final results of the war they themselves began, and abandon the struggle they have maintained so vainly aud so long. General Grant’s electon, as Gen. Sickles said in one of his campaign speeches, thus assurance of restoration, peace*and political security. In Connecticut his name has done what nothing cise could have done—re stored harmony of sentiment and of action to the Republican party. The party is not divided on any other question, and it is thoroughly united on this. The judicious action of the State Convention has silenced all differences of opinion and presented a ticket to which no objection of any kind can possibly be made. The personal characters of the candidates command universal re spect. The question of negro suffrage in the State is only indirectly involved, in the election of members of one branch of the Legislature. And the name of Grant is a tower of strength to the party that has wisely and by a spontaneous impulse made him its candidate. Official. iliADijuAßTEns Third Military Lutiiict, i (Georgia, Alabama, and Florida), l Atlanta, Ga., April 4, 18C3. ( General Order*, No. 51. I. The recent assassination, at Columbus, Ga., of the lion. G. W.

VI. The Commanding General calls on all good citizens to aid in the preservation of the peace, and te assist in tho arrest and punish ment of violators of this order and the criminal laws of the State, and ho admonishes them that unless acts of intimidation and violence are checked and punished, bloody retaliation may be provoked, the peace of society endangered or subverted, and much innocent blood be shed.

All placards and newspaper cards of the Ku Klux Klan, are prohibited, and ignorance of their existence will not be hold as an adequate excuse, it being the business of tho civil and military officers to know what appertains to thoir duties.
