Under stand me. It is right und proper that Re* publicane should “support" their friends, generally speaking. It >» »•*» tru,! ,h,lt OMr opponents in this city have inaugurated business and social proscription, on political grounds.’ But, Mr. Editor, the trite adage that “two tcronys uever made one ri.jht'' is applicable here. Our opponents engaged in this senseless scheme will ere long bo ' heartily ashamed of their participation there in—and the puuiskmcnt then inflicted liy the inward monitor wilt be more effective (and sarely more Christian-like) than aught we can do in the way of “retaliation.” As intimated above, this spirit of pro scription will be short-lived. Georgia will goon be restored to the Union, and im mediately alter that happy event the face of “society” as well as of business will undergo a rapid transformation, by the presence of scores and hundreds among us whom we will gladly welcome as neighbors and friemlt. Meanwhile, let the proscribed-for-opiniom. sake pursue the even tenor of their way— whi'e avoiding unnecessary retaliation, yet prompt to resent personal indignities,—and the not far off sequel will show the wisdom of this policy and the excessive folly of the last emanation of Chivalry, yclept proscrip tion. Qi-is. —— • <w> s [Communicated. THE POISON WORKS. Mr. Editor: The mail to day brought me a letter from a well known Baptist clergy man of Middle Georgia, an extract from which I append for publication, as one of the chapters of the remarkable history of the times. I propose no comment. N. (extract.]' * -, Ga., May 13, 1808. Dear Brother ****: I can not preach to the people here muck—they refuse to hear me. I took no part in the last election, because I saw that it would injure my ministerial influence. But I am, neverthe less, ostracised here by the so called Democracy. Regular combinations against me in business, in social life, and in religion. When the Pastor of the church at was at the Convention at Augusta, I was left in charge of the church here, and preached for him to a good congregation. On his return I inquired of him about the matter of refusing a seat on the floor of the Convention to the reporter of the National Republican. He gave me the particulars. I denounced the action of the Convention, and in a subsequent conversation declared my opinion that in doing as it did, it bad made itself a political body, and was no more worthy the confidence of the denomi nation. I can yet see the action of the Convention in no other light than that of a political action. It should be styled here after the “Democratic Baptist Convention of Georgia”—it is not the “Georgia Baptist Convention.” But, having been previously suspected of being a Republican, these remarks about the Convention inflamed my Baptist brethren of the Democratic persuasion, and as it was known 1 was to preach again the fol lowing Sabbath, I was notified by letter that owing to the displeasure of some of the brethri n with my “political status,'' my congregation would he small. I said nothing, hut went on about my duties. On Sabbath morning certain men made their appear ance at church, and immediately on tiic adjournment of rhe Sabbath School, went to work, brad and heart, to break up and send off the congregation. They succeeded, save with a few who know it is the Minister's duty to preach Christ and not politics. Yours, I). THE CONSTITUTIONAL AMEND MENT. The following is the proposed Article of the Constitution, which must be adopted by the Legislature before tho Stale can lie represented in Congress : Resolved, by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America, in Conyress assembled, two thirds of both Houses concurring, That the follow ing articles be proposed to the Legislatures of the several Slates as an amendment to the Constitution of the United States, which, when ratified by three fourths of said Legis latures, shall be valid as a part of the Constitution, namely: Article —, Section 1. All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citi zens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any laws which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States, nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process ot law, nor deny to aiiy person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws. Sec. 2. Representatives shall be ap|K>r tioned among the several States according to their respective numbers, counting the whole number of persons in each State, excluding Indians not taxed, But whenever the right to vote at any election for electors of President and Vice President, or for United States Representatives in Congress, executive or judicial officers of a Slate, nr members of the Legislature thereof, is denied to any of the male inhabitants ot such States, being twenty one years of age and citizens of the United States, or in any way abridged, except for participation in rebellion or other crime, the basis of repre sentation therein shall be reduced in the proportion which the number of such male citizens shall hear to the whole number of male citizens twenty one years of age in such State. Sec. 3. No person sha 1 be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President or Vice President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, having previous y taken an oath as a member <f Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any Sl ate I .eg islature, or us ari executive or judicial officer of any Stale, to support tlio Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the sumo, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof: hut Congress may, by a vote of two thirds of each House, remove such disability. Sec. 4. The validity of the public debt of the United States, authorized by law, including debt incurred for tho payment of pensions and bounties for services in sup pressing insurrection or rebellion, shall not be questioned; but neither the United State* nor any State shall a*eu»e or nay any debt or obligation incurred in aid ot insurrection or rebellion again** the United State*, or claim for the lon* or emancipation of any slave ; but all *ucb debt*, obligation and claim shall p* held illega and void. Sec 5. The Congress shall have power hi enforce by appropriate legislation, the provision* of ibis artiole. Passed June 13, iB6O. We believe that the adoption of this Amoiidnicut by five of the Stale* now under going reconstruction is neoded to make it a part of the Constitution. [From our Special Correspondent. WA SUING TON I. E TVER. Ari itc,sent About Impeachment Tbs Outeidr /Y««tti-e Johnson nod the Donorrary—South Carolina Rrmnnthnnrr—Mayoralty hlectioH is ll.KfUaghm —tiorlk Carotiua Dllotion—Dim kilittei to be Removed. Washington, I). May 10, 1868. The excitement about the result of the impeachment triul increases us the time approaches for rendering the final uud irre vocable verdict, whatever it may be, either guilty or not guilty. The adjournment of the Court for two or three days after deciding to take a final vote on Tuesday was as much as saying to a certain c lass of politicians, as is frequently done to betting men at some races after the first heat, “now is the time to make your bets, gentlemen,” and they are improving the opportunity. At the Metro politan and other places where Democrats most do congregate, impeachment stock is always down—the Hears having it pretty much their own way, and woe to the unlucky wight entertaining opposite opinions who express them publicly. He is at mice set upon bv a ring, and badgered with questions to elicit what he knows more than anybody else, and is dared to hack up his opinions with money—the real American way of settling all differences ol opinion. At Re publican haunts tho bulls reign supreme, and an opponent of impeachment is at once surrounded by similar difficulties, l’olitical wiseacres gather ia groups at the hotels, on the street corners, und button hole every one to hear the last rumors as to how Fessenden stands? what will Grimes do? is Trumbull sure to vote for acquittal ? will Fowler vote with the Republican majority? and each new comer is plied with these and similar questions. The answers are generally in accordance with the political bias of the questioned parly, for notwithstanding the rumors to the contrary, no one lias yet been found who knows definitely how any partic ular Senator will vote. The outside pressure is fearful to contem plate, especially upon members of the Court considered as doubtful, and whose votes may determine the result of the trial. The unscrupulous gamblers in politics, who are influenced by no higher motive than per sonal or party benefit, have established a thorough system of espionage upon the movements of all doubtful Senators, with a view to gather some information by which an inference may be drawn as to how they will vote, or to exert some influence directly or indirectly for or against conviction. To this, Senators are dogged in places, and even to their private apartments, by eavesdroppers; every movement is carefully watched to enable tiie seekers of informa tion under difficulties to draw an inference. If a member of the Court carries in his hand an unusually large bundle of manu script, he is drawn into conversation, and a system of sharp practice resorted to which would be creditable to a Tombs lawyer. "Got your opinion against conviction written out, eh ?” says one of this class the other day; “How do you know that?" was the response, and till that was obtained. The report gained immediate currency that the aforesaid had prepared a written opinion against conviction, and as the questioned party is a lawyer, and stands pretty high up in the alphabetical list, tho probable influ ence his vote would have upon several other Senators lower down in the list, was freely discussed. Os course the deduction was drawn that the necessary two thirds vote could not lie obtained. It is upon such slight foundation as this that column upon column of impartial (?) speculations have been sent from tiie Capital to the presses throughout the country to keep up the excitement about impeachment. It is cer tainly a relief to believe that on Tuesday next all speculations as regards the result of the trial of Andrew Johnson will he nt an end Now that the President Ims got the Democratic lenders by the ears as regards the Presidential nominee, it is believed that lie cares hut little whether acquitted or convicted. If convicted, lie intends to insist upon being made a martyr in so fai ns to secure the nomination of Gen. Han cock, who he thinks can he elected, and lie will thus he able to gratify his feeling ol revenge entertained toward both political organizations. A dead lion, however, is not supposed to he a very dangerous animal, Andrew Johnson’s opinion to the contrary notwithstanding. NORTH CAROLINA CONOIIKSSMKX. Six of tiie seven Congressmen recently elected in North Carolina are now in this city, being on a committee to lay before the President a certified copy of toe Constitu tion recently adopted. I here gentlemen are, with one exception, 1 believe, gradu ates of Northern Colleges, and enjoy the respect of everybody where known, always excepting rebel sympathizers. This is the class of men who arc designated as “carpet baggers’’ and “adventurers.” They all have capital invested in the Slate of their adoption, ami are as much interested in its material progress as men to the manor born. THE SOUTH CAROLINA white delegation, to remonstrate against tbs new Constitution of that State, had an interview with the Reconstruction Commit tee on Friday. The remonstrance was peculiarly South Carolinarish —or rather as the tone and temper of that people were in 1800. They still wanted to be “let alone,” which freely rendered, means, “keep your Government agents away, and we can manage the negroes and keep them in their proper places.” Buchanan thought peace could he preserved by giving up all the principles gained at the ballot box in 18(i0. The so called white party at the South to day, propose to be good citizens provided the principles gained by the late war are given up. Such delegations do not find many sympathizing friends in the Capital to day. Their presence has rather a ten dency to make more firm in purpose the friends of progress. The nomination for Mayor, of s’. <l. Bowen, try tin- Republicans here, lias created a fear ful bowl among rebel sympathizers Mr. Bowen's offense is ltint he took early ground in favor ot emancipation in the District, tied was loyal to the Government at a time when it was dangerous to express sur li sentiments, even on l'nnnsytvniiia Avenue. The reign of terror that prevailed until the arrival of the 7tli N. Y. Regiment, in 1 Hi; 1, will never be forgotten l.y the Union men residing here at that time. The Reconstruction Committee has pre pared a report in favor of removing disabili ties from all the Slate officers recently elected in North Carolina. The report will be presented the present week •, of its adop tion there can be no doubt. Robert Douglass, a son of Ihe lute Senator Douglass, lias been appointed Secretary, by Gov. Holden, of North Carolina. CAPITAL. GENERAL ITEMS. lloe'a press -tight fitting stocking*. The blue hell* of Scotland—Highland losses in tears. Can pedestrian pleasure bo considered the heels or an entertainment? The penalty of operating in Wall street— being put in the stocks. A period of atnitseincut—when amuse ment conies to a full stop. Tho last words of the Uynocophalus : “Always ahead—dog ou it.” Professional speech of a cobbler—his last words. “Kissing tv factory girl is a mill privilege,’’ when she is n satis factory girl. Tho season continues unusually backward. 11l Western Massachusetts, last week, the hills were covered with snow. South Danvers, Mas*., is henceforth to b* called Peabody, in honor of George Pea body, n native of that place. Dickens’ first book, “Tho Life of Jo* Gristnaldi,” is announced for republicntion in Philadelphia. A writer, dwelling upon tho importance of small things, says that “lie always takes noto even of a straw, especially if there happens to be a sherry cobbler at one end of it.” An English elm tree, which, liy vote of the town of Boston, was placed on Tremont mall in tho year 1733, was dug out and removed recently, having died at the ad vanced age of 134 vears. in manufacturing cartridges lor the French Chasaepot rifles, large amounts of silk are used, and the demand is nt present so great us to have caused a considerable rise in the price of silk in France. ltoxbury has been annexed to Boston, which forma part of the county of Suffolk, Mass.; but that ia no reason why the Boston Transcript should say that by annexation, ltoxbury has been completely suffdkated. A monument, commemorative of the strug gles ol Poland for national independence, ia to be erected in the neighborhood of Lake Zurich, Switzerland. It will consist of a column ol black marble, surmounted, by an eagle with outspread wings. J. Hammond Trumbull, of Hartford, Conti., ia said to be tiic only living person who can read John Elliot’s Indian Bible, a copy ot which was sold the other day for $i,130. Ho has compiled from the hook a dictionary of 7,000 words. In a lecture delivered at Louisville on Friday evening by Father flecker, of tiie Congregation of St. Paul the Apostle, of this city, he stated hU belief that Protestantism was not fitted lor the foundation or mainte nance of the institutions of this country. Offers of marriage are not to be lightly made in Massachusetts. At the Supreme Court, recently held at Barnstable in that State. Gcorgiana I). lived, a teacher, recov ered jm.OOO damages from Albert O. Rob bins, a physician, for breach of promise. In answer to the inquiry why modern printing ink is so had, the London Book ed kr says that the makers use common lampblack and other indifferent materials. The only demand for spirit black comes from France. The London Times states that Admiral Farragat has discovered in the Museum of Antiquities, at Florence, tv heavy In-onze gun, which attracted his attention in Tunis, in 1816, and which he had always kept in recollection. Tlte breach of the gun termi nated in a handsome head of Saint Paul. An organized party of professors and student* ot the University of Michigan Ims set out on a five months' scientific explora tion of the Lake Superior, region, and will pay particular attention to the Northeastern shore, which lias never yet been thoroughly examined. A photographer accompanies the expedition. It is slated that United States five twenty bonds of all denominations are now used largely in plnee of letters of credit- This is especially true ol German and continental travellers visiting Europe. They carry sma’l United States bonds with them, a*d find th cm much cheaper and easier of nego tiate n than the old fashioned hankers’ letter. Edwin Booth has had a gold crown built in Boston for his Richard, at n cost of SI,OOO. There is also a collar of the order of the garter, made entirely of gold and silver, and a jewelled cross [spirittie -v in ti) ; nl-o a jewelled sword and dagger, mounted in real stone, the hilt and scabbard covered with g,,ms. Ohio is to have anew coat of arms. The Legislature of that Slate has passed a bill making the coat of anus consist of a shield in the form of a circle, having in the fore ground on the right a sheaf of wheat: on the left, a bundle of seventeen arrows; in ibe background, and rising above the sheaf and arrows, a mountain range, over which is a rising sun. Tho Lookout Mountain Bczirk, an associa tion of German Turners, comprising the societies ot Chattanooga, Atlanta, Memphis, and Nashville, are to have a celebration in the latter city on the Ist, 2d, and 3d of June next. It is expected that delegations will be present also from Cincinnati, Louisville, and Augusta. Ihe Spanish Americans are said to be remarkably long lived. An old Spanish soldier, named Cimone Avalos, who carried a. musket in Spain moro than a hundred years ago, and was one of the military guard of the Padre Janipcro Serra, when lie raised the cross in Alta California, at Sim Diego, ninety eight years since, still lives and enjoys good health and memory, at Todos Santos, Lower California. The Turin municipality presented to tho Princess Margaret, on her marriage, a costly casket in solid gold, in the Italian style of the sixteenth century, thickly incrustcd with Oriental lapis lazuli and precious stones. The wnight ol gold used in this splendid gift is something extraordinary, even in princely presents. The Manikin' says that it weighs I t kilogrammes (over 31 lbs.) and the rubies, pearls, and other gems number 2,21(3. The late Duke of York, brother ol George IV., when Governor of the Canadas, was solicited, during ilia prevalence of a long drought, by the clergy of the diocese, for permission to offer up prayer for rain. “Eh ? —what?” was his Royal Highness*answer—■ “Ob, yes; pray if you like—by all means— very proper. Bet I tell you what, you may pray till you're black in the fuce, but I’m d—d if it rains till you nail the weather cook in tho other direction. Jules Favre, the brilliant French advocate, was recently admitted to the scat in the Academy made vacant by the death of Vic tor Cousin- In his address on that occasion be declined himself a thorough partisan ol “woman’s rights,” or rather of the “restora tion’’ of woman. A leading feature ol his speech was the repudiation for his own part of materialistic doctrines, but at tho same lime a strong vindication of liberty as ncces sary to give reason lair play. President Johnson lias just added another name to the long list of counterfeiters whom In; has pardoned. Tho present subject ol bis clemency is described ns the most notorious counterfeiter in the Northern Slates. Ilia nnino is John 11. Sims. He lives in Onondega county, N. Y., and for years baffled the officers of justice j and by counterfeiting and robbery, especially by pilfering from ennui boats, he bad amassed a fortune. 110 was caught nnd convicted about a year ago, and was sentenced to ten years imprisonment. Ho is now, however, at liberty to renew his villainies and to prey once moro upon the people wlm Imvo so long suffered from his crimes. THE THIRTY FIVE THOUSAND. Tbirtv five thousand native white North Carolinians voted for the Constitution and the Republican ticket in the late election. These patriots have inarched up with steady step to the ballot box, and declared in favor of reconstruction and of equality before the law in ipito of the fiercest denunciation, the most rigid social ostracism, not unfrequentlv at the risks of their lives, nnd in thousands of instance* in the face of threats to press them to the wall for debt, to turn them off their rented land, and to uso all the power of their wealth and influence to utterly destroy them and their families. The men who have passed this ordeal of fire tnoy ho relied upon. They will never falter here after. Count fifty thousand native white votes for the Republican nomiueo for Presi dent and the Union, in the next election. We lost thousands of colored votes by reason of fraud and intimidation. It was the white men of North Carolina that decided the question, Ihe above from tiie Raleigh Standard of the 14th inst., is true elsewhere. We claim that 40,000 white men in Georgia has saved our State, and a very large majority of them natives. They have had an awful fire from all quarters, hut have stood firm and un hlauched, and there is no such word in their vocabularies ns “falter,” hereafter, when a more important crisis to our country’s his tory occurs, in November next. The nomi nees of the Chicago Republican Convention will have a rousing majority upon the popular votes, and an electoral veto beyond doubt from this .State. We know great brag3 are already being made by some of the Tory Press of our State in regard to the Presi dential election, hut we regard all such bravado as the merest twaddle, and the mere effervesenee of bottled wrath at defeat. The Jacksonville Journal says : “Sergeant Bates carried a double flag, which coufd be turned inside out in an instant—one side representing the stars and stripes, and the other tho stars and bars. When in the cities where his trick was understood, ho kept outside tiie stars and stripes; but when passing through the country, nnd where it would have been hazardous to be seen with the national colors, he would fling out tiie rebel side of the flag. Thus ho was enabled to make the trip in safety, but the discovery of tho secret lias taken all the romance and buncombe out of his adven ture.” A dashing young widow in Detroit pre pared a pleasant surprise for her suitor a few evenings since. Expecting a call from him, she hid herself in a convenient corner, and as he touched the knob of the door bell, sprang out in the darkness of the evening, and nearly smothered him—with kisses, llis cool reception of her caresses startled her with a recognition of the fact that instead of her lover she had been lavishing her sweetness upon the conductor oi a street car, who had come with a note explaining an unforeseen absence. The widow there upon, with great propriety, fainted on the spot. FOR RENT AND SALE.
