National Republican A. UWUBTA . «A. SUNDAY MORNING M»y 10. U#B For PRESIDENT Or Tin United States: IILVSBBS s, (;ka\t. BRIBING THE SENA TE. The New York Worhl propones to raise tcu millions of dollars for the purpose of bribing the Senate, or a sufficient number of Senators to acquit Andrew Johnson. We should hardly suppose that such a proposition could !*• made in enrnest. if it wore not for the quarter from which it comes: for it is notorious that hritwry is a prime element in New York jmlitics. and the World may suppose that what is so effi cacious in controlling the New York Legis lature may 1« as potent in the U. S. Senate. In thus judging Senators by its own l*coplc, the World reckons erroneously; and as the World has already declared that the Democracy have nothing to do with the impeachment of Andrew Johnson— that it is merely a qunrrcl of the Republi can party with a Republican President -it is fair to presume that the World would have not the slightest objection to have Johnson turned out. Like the Democracy here, the party North have no use for Johnson if he can not or will not serve their purposes. The proposition, there fore. is more a bribe offered to Johnson than to the Senators, and, if successful, would make Johnson their most humble and obedient servant, lie would be cheaply bought at ten millions of dollars. The whiskey ring and the counterfeiters, whom he pardons and protects, could afford to pay that sum. But the very fact of the publicity given to the proposition shows that the attempt to carry it into effect will not bo made. Its only tendency will be to cast suspicion upon those Senators who, having once, by their votes or speeches, de nounced the proceedings of Mr. Johnson as criminal, now refuse to punish his crime. Any apparent change of opinion on the part of Senators is sure to be ascribed to bribery ; for nobody supposes that all the long-winded speeches on the impeachment trial have changed a single vote. The WorhTs proposition, therefore, tends only to injure the ease of Mr. Johnson, and for that purpose we believe it was designed. /S LIFE WORTH LIVING? What may be called the desponding and melancholy school of literature is not. by any means, so much in favor now as it was in the days of Lord Byron. Then, almost every stripling took to wearing long hair and a turn-down collar, and tried to appear pale and miserable with unutterable woe. Hundreds of school girls nursed secret griefs, or mourned the loss of departed joys: and even older persons, who should have known better, did not escape the infection, but got into a fashion of saying, if not of really thinking, that they were the most unhappy of mor tals. Since that epoch, there has been such an improvement in the tone of public opinion on the subject, that neither young nor old make themselves ridiculous to the same extent as they did ; but traces of the folly are still to be found in the writings of our romancists and poets, especially those of an inferior grade. Every little while we come upon verses or sentimental prose full of lamentation and moping over the emptiness of the world, the vanity of earthly hopes, and the entire worthless ness of life. Now and then, too, a first class poet indulges in the same nonsense, and awakens the sympathy of his simple minded readers for his forlorn state of mind. That life has its sorrows and trials, is a truism with which every one who lias advanced a step beyond childhood is practically familiar. Everyone of us lias his peculiar troubles to contend with, and his peculiar griefs to#bear. Disappoint ments in love, ambition, and business ; the ingratitude of children and friends; ill health, poverty, and the innumerable train of other ills that flesh is heir to, falh more or less, to the lot of all. But he who sees nothing but these tilings in life, and persuades himself that there are no blessings to counterbalance them, acts as foolishly as he would to go abroad only at night and judge of the world solely from its hours of darkness. The same nerves that feel pain arc also sensitive to pleasure; the heart that mourns can also throb with tender love; disappointment ’ implies the possibility of success; the pangs of broken friendship carry with them the promise of a newer and purer sentiment; and so compensation follows the steps of every loss. To take note and brood over the one, without recognizing the existence of the other, is not only unwise, but it betokens a want of faith in the goodness of our Creator of which we ought to lie ashamed. A certain class of religious teachers, too, art: somewhat to blame for fostering the habit of talking about the worthlessness of this sublunary life. In order to make the value of a future state of existence appear greater in the eyes of those whom they address, they think it necessary to depreciate this, and, to induce them to seek heaven, make them as discontented as they can with earth. They do not reflect that this world is as much the work of the Master whom they profess to serve us the other, and that they impugn His wisdom, as well as His benevolence, in trying to prove that happiness here is beyond our power. If we will only omit wrong doing, and perform our simple duty, wherever we find it, there is no reason why we should wait for death to introduce us into the enjoyment of all the delights of which we are capable. True happiness springs from within, not from without, and has its source in a pure heart ami a clear conscience, not in the scenery by which we are sotirrounded. * ONE-SIDED LIBERTY. “A Georgia Kdito*" write* to the Tiuut in vindication of his Stale from certain aaper. tioiu (as be deems lately printed in that jourual. He (Sronouaces the hu Klux Klau “a myth, a joke,” s<> Incas regards that State;’ but the late George W. Aehburn (a born Southerner) «lt«» not find it *o. On the general count, he pleads us follows: ‘•ln reference to tlie al»tre of loyal man. It i* only (he shoddy loyalists—the carpet-bug ad venturers, benonth contempt at the North—and the perjured renegades, beneath contempt every where, that aro tlio objects of what you call “abuse.'’ boyai uieu -men truoto the Uonstitu iloh, Northern men who fought for the Union, and Southern men who opposed tbo war, If they remain true to the Union, and have not deserted tboir race, anil sought to fasten negro equality upon the Whites of the South, arc rcspcctod, honored, trusted everywhere.” That is to say : If they agree, or will pre tend to agtee, with the late Rebels in their assumption that “This is a White Man’s Government,” in which lllacks have properly no political rights—which is substantially what they rebelled to established—Northern men are not liable to abuse in Georgia. We have not a doubt that this is a fact; because that decided majority ol the people of Georgia who have just adopted a Free Constitution and elected Rufus Bullock Governor, aro not rioters nor assassins, and do not purpose to mob or kill thoso who are of opposite politics; but if a Northern man goes to Georgia who is iu sympathy with the loyal majority of present citizens of that State, he must look out, as is plainly implied by the "Georgia Editor." We re spectfully assure him that this will not answer—that Georgia must be —will be—as free to and as safe for men of our politics as of bis. It may take time to secure it, lmt to this completion it must come at last.— N. I”. Tribune. • ♦ • Nkgko Vomits.—The Democracy of Georgia have probably elected three but of the seven Members of Congress, and the joke of it is. that two of the three were elected by negro votes. To be in the least consistent, Messrs. Tift and Young ought to refuse to take their seats m Congress— they ought to scorn an election carried by negro votes. It is hard to say, since the election, which is the “white man’s party,’’ or who, of the officers elect, represent it. Rich Mk.v ok New York An examina tion of the tax books of New York City (for 1556-'57) shows that already ten men own one-tenth part of the whole taxable property of the city, as follows : Wm. B.

It lias taken two generations to make eight of these millionaires ; two have carved their own fortunes—Stewart aad Lord—who both commenced life poor. The President, yesterday, turned loose a counterfeit r named Sims. It took the de tectives one year to work up his case, at a cos; to the Treasury of twenty thousand dollars. He was sentenced to ten years in the penitentiary, of which he had served one year. Can anybody tell why the President pardons counterfeiters and whiskey thieves, about as fast ns they are convicted ? —Cin cinnati Gazelle. In auswer to the question, we can only say that "A. J.” is doing what (lie unfaithful and unjust steward did, mentioned in the New Testament. He is trying to make friends of the thieves, who arc robbing not only the Government, but the people, so that ho may have, probably, some per3 -ns to do hint reverence after he is kicked "head and crop” out of his present liigli poiition; not wishing to sink down with deserved insignificance, as he will a,suredly do, and be compelled to resort to the “laiior’s goose and shears.” his original occupation, which he never should have left. See Luke, 15 chap., 1 to 7 v. inclusive. J@* The Washington coneapoii'lcnt ot the Boston Post says that Mr. 4Valle, in conversation with a “prominent Radical Congressman,” the other evening, concern ing the probability of a war of races in tho South, and that lie should lavor a large increase of the army in those States, and a law requiring each State to pay the ex. peases of the troops kept within its own territory. The Times doubts whether Mr. Wade has said anything of the kind, as he is not at all likely lo make private or public declarations ot tlie policy he will adopt in ease hu becomes President.

The report that the IJitcn of Saxony would h‘ nci-fni h require ladies'to appear at her emir with their hair brushed and combed, has been denied with all the emphasis of official announcement. Maids and matrons may now go to the royal palace as dishev elled us they choose. The population of Russia lias doubled in sixty-two years, and at this rate will amount to one hundred and fifty million by the year 1900. The average length ol life is thirty two years for men and lifty-ono for women. Russia has more young persons under the ago of twenty, in proportion to her popula tion, than any country in Europe, and lewor between the ages of twenty and sixty. The discovery of an ancient Roman wharf on the Tiber has been followed by tlie finding of immense quantities ot rare mar bles stored there—just as they were taken from the quarries. The heavy stony tribute exacted by the Cms.irs from tho provinces of Africa and Greece, and unemployed in the fabrics of heathen Rome, has reappear ed aftyr an immersion of many centuries in the muddy bank of the 'fiber, and will fur nish materials for tiie renewal of the variegated marble pavements of all the churches’m Rome for centuries to come. ) fine James M.

U., 1 Aeucita, Ga., May 8, 1868. j Two months since a communication, set ting lorth the necessity of a more perfect union auiotig the Methodistg of this city, wns addressed to tho Pastor and Board of Stewards of St. John’s and Asbury Church, respectively, by tho Pustor and Bonrd of Stewards of St. James. The objects of this Union, briefly stated, are as follows: Ist. The religious advancement of tho whole Methodist community. 2d. The establishment ot benevolent and chsrituble Societies for the iinmodiato benefit of our own poor, and the poor ot the com munity at large. 3d. Tho systematic dissemination of our Church literature, and tho performance of sundry other disciplinary duties. To tho communication, above mentioned, the Pastors und Official Boards of St. John’s and Asbury returned an affirmative response. The first conference under tho proposition, took place at St. John’s Church on the evening of March 23d nit., at which time a Constitution was perfected and ordered to be submitted to the several Churches for ratification or rejection. It was unanimously adopted, and under its provisions the fol lowing named brethren were eleeted officers and managers : President. —Dr. I. P. Garvin. Vice Presidents. —l)r. Win. 11.

On Sunday, May 3rd, at 10 o’clock a. m., the tii’Ht anniversary meeting of the Union was held nt St. John’s Church, on which occasion the Statistical Secretary presented an interesting report, extracts from which appear elsewhere. Bov. Arminius Wright preached an able, eloquent, and instructive sermon from this text: ‘‘The Lord hath done great things for us; whereof wo are glad.”—l26th Psalm, 3 v. The Sacrament of ths Lord’s Supper was administered to upwards of, if not more than, five hundred communicants, Rsv. Bro. George 11. PatiP.o consecrated the elo meets, assisted by Rev. Bros. Wright and Calhoun. It may lie proper to say, that Rev. Bro. Caleb W. Key, Pastor of Asbury Chapel, was deterred, by sickness, from participating inutile impressive ceremonies ol the occasion. In the afternoon, the several Methodist Sabbath Schools assembled at St. John's, when the children nllarnutely engaged in singing hymns and listening to well timed addresses, delivered by Ho. . 11. W. Hilliard, Rev. George 11, Patillo, and Rev.. Armitiitts Wright. 'The report of tho Statistical Secretary shows the total number of Methodists, in Augusta, lo bo eight hundred and forty four (841) ; of this number three hundred and twenty two (322) belong to St. John's: two hundred and ninety one (291) to St. James'; and two hundred and thirty one (231) to Asbury.

The first regular meeting of the Union, in its happy developments, established the belief that, if zealous i (Torts are made to accomplish the obji-ets which have given rise lo the organ ization, it will redound to the glory of God, and the advancement of the cause ot pure and undefiled religion iu our midst. Martin V. Calvin, Recording Secretary. How to Cork a Coi.d.— Tho moment a man is satisfied he. has taken cold, let him do three things : First, eat nothing ; second, go to bed, cover up in a warm room ; third, drink as much cold water at he can, or as he wants, or as much herb tea as he can ; and. iu three eases out of four, ho will be well in thirty six hours. To neglect a cold for forty eight hours niter the cough em inences, is to place himself beyond cure, until the cold has run its course, or about a fort night. Warmth and abstinence are safe and certain cures, when applied early. Warmth keeps tho pores of the skia open, and relieves it of the surplus which op presses it, while abstinence cuts off the supply of material lor phlegm, which would otherwise be coughed up. —Journal of health. Tho .Supreme Court of Maryland decided on Monday last where a real estate broker procures a purchaser, who is accepted by the owner, the broker cannot be deprived of his commissions if the purchaser refuse to com plete the sale because Ilia title is found to be defective. It was also decided, iu the same case, that where part of the purchase money is reserved bj’ way of ground rent, the broker is entitlqd to his commissions on the whole purchase price, as well as that which is paid in money as ou that part reserved by way of rent.
