judicious choice. Col. Cole’s administration

Macon amt Augusta Railroad Cos.
At a meeting of the Board of the Macon
and Augusta Railroad, held yesterday,
a meeting of the Stockholders wa3 ordered
lo be called the first Monday in October
next.
Governor Bullock having resigned his
position as President, Hon. B. Conley was
inanimouslv elected President pro tail.
The resignation of Colonel Turner, of
Hancock, as a member of the Board, having
been received and accepted, Col. A. J,
Laue, of Hancock, was elected to fill the
mcaucy.
Governor Bullock haviug also resigned
his position as Director, the vacancy thus
made was filled by the election of Mr. Win
Shear, of this city.
We learn that vigorous measures will be
immediately inaugurated for the construc
tion ol the Road from Milicdgeville to
Macon, aud uuw that our political'' differ
ences are so nearly settled, it is believed
that this important enterprise will bo suc
cessfully completed.
Strawberries,
On yesterday morning, bright aud early,
Mr. P. Brcntuall walked into our office
bearing several specimens of his “Wilson’s
Improved Strawberries,’’ which were very
fine and exceedingly good—in fact, both for
size and quality, they have not been ex
celled, to our knowledge, anywhere at the
South. Mr. 15. is from “Merrie Old Eng
land,' and has been a resident here* before
ihe war, and came to America in 1836.
He is endeavoring to show our people what
can he done toward the high culture of
small fruits in this climate. His fruit farm
at Belair has largu plantations of grape
vines, peach and apple trees, and other
hurts. We wish Mr. B. every success in his
enterprise, and hope that many others will
follow his good example. Wo have the soil
and the climate; we need the genius and
the labor and the capital to develope our
resources.
■'hero Democratic clubs.
We are credibly informed that tho so
called Democracy are forming Negro Clubs
ah over Georgia. Wo have known of efforts
being made in this city and Savannah, but
here, these is “not much ol a shower.”
Qaery; What is the difference between
Democratic Clubs and Colored Re
publican Clubs? Not certainly any, as to
the mere fact, but surely a great difference
ei the “decency and respectability” of
l l -two ; for the last have all the claim to
ose concomitants, as having stood up
•jjuarc to their race, despite Democratic
feats, money, and whiskey, and who are
‘HU determined to do so. When we are
Emitted into the Union, as wo certainly
■ be, all in good time, the State will go

Convention, without a doubt, and roll up a

BtPVBIIOAN WARNING TO “ANDY."
A rtaotTM «*p*cni«L’s wAmtiuu” ur cam**®-*.
Oh ! Andy, oh 1 Andy, beware of the day
When the Republican boys stand In battle army!
When the bone and the einow shall glvo thoo a
boat,
And put thee and thy ‘'licit epittlaa" to a rout—
When the Farmer shall rush with his uplifted
Sail,
And thy spaniels ehrink baek, and with terror
turn pale;
When tho honeet Mechanic, with tools long un
used,
Shall hammer then well tor thy office abused;
For a field of thy perfidy Is plain to my sight,
And tby elaae arc already seoking their Bight—
What stands from tby pnlaoo flee with riders
before ?
They arc thino, olden Andy, thy carriage and
four!
How their silver and buckle,- shino, bright in the
suu (
When tho people eioUiot, “Sco how finely they
run."
Oh, Andy! oh, Andy ! beware of tho day
When the Republican torrents shall swcop thee
awey;
Whon frem tho “Far West” sturdy Grant shall
appear.
And thy bones and thy nerves shall bo shaken
with fear;
When the voice of the millions shall raise tho
glad shout,
And a Ilcro shall put all thy forces to rout.
Ob, weep! but thy tears cannot alter the casa—
For Tcnncssco lies at the end of thy race;
The wrath of the people in fierceness doth burr,
Bidding thee quickly to thy “thimble’’ roturn.
I tell thee, old sinner, dread echo’s do sing,
From eentro to ceutro of thy cursed “ring
Thy slaves and tby demagogues shall fruitlessly
wail,
To think that thy long.vaunted magic should
fail.
Take heed to my warning—thy reign is no more,
For “coming events east their shadows before.”
Personal,
We have been requested to state, in
justice to Mr. M. Blankqnsee, by tbn
parties who ordered his arrest, that tho
same xvas made through misapprehension,
and matters appertaining thereto satis

,Vliu« McCulloch.
The Charleston News says :
The benefit to Miss McCulloch on Tuesday
night was indeed a handsome testimonial.
We learn that the nett proceeds were seven
hundred and fifty dollars, which amount in
cash was placed in the fair tanta trice's
hands previous to her departure for Sa
vannah.
Wo regret’ to learn the following, but we
must content ourselves and hide our time,
we suppose. The following telegram, re
ecived yesterday evening, will explain the
unavoidable postponement of the Opera to
Monday and Tuesday of next week :
Savannah, May 14th, 18G8.
Impossible to take away Miss McCulloch
to-morrow. A number of gentlemen
wait upon her, offering complimentary
benefit. Postpone to Monday and Tuesday.
Torriani.
Os course, to all those who have secured
scats, and to whom it may not be convenient
to attend on the substituted nights, their
money will be returned.
llfK&iiig the t)notion.
Wo see in a letter from Louisville, Geor
gia, that the Superior Court was in session
there this week, and adjourned on the 12th.
The Grand Jury made a Special present
ment lor murder against eighteen white men
and some twenty negroes, lor “burning at the
stake” a negro, who confessed the crime of
rape upon Ihe person of a white lady in
the county of Jefferson, during the past
winter. Fourteen of these parties were
arrested at the time, by order of General
Meade, and have been since held in confine
ment at Atlanta. Judge Gibson sent bench
warrants by the Sheriff for these parties,
that they may be tried by the civil Courts.
General Meade may promptly attend to the
summons and deliver over these prisoners,
but precedent dots not show ns that he will,
unless fully convinced that the ends of
justice can be and will be attained in
the one case as well as in the other.
The act commilted hy the murdered negro
was one that should be promptly punished,
but the barbarism of the stake shocks the
sense of humanity in this age of the world,
and admits of no excuse. And while we
have no fears of injustice being done by the
citizens of Jefferson county, we want to see
all the citizens who, hy the Civil Rights Bill,
are entitled to be jurors,placed in possession
of their rights, and as even the Tory Democ
racy, in the hope of catching ncgrtr votes,
pretend to say now that they arc willing to
concede to their “col.ored friends” (7) all
their “rights before the law,” tla-y surely
will agree with us that one of those rights
means the “right to sit on juries.” if they
do not so agree, then we hope to hear no
more of their protestations to the contrary.
Since writing the foregoing, we find in au
Atlanta paper the following item :
A Military Commission has been detailed
by Gen. Meade for the trial of the Jefferson
county prisoners. We could not learn at
what time the Commission will open its
session.
[ Communicated.
KniToiia Chronicle : You intimate that
Blodgett litis no reason to fear assassination.
How can you reconcile that idea with tlie
following “official notice” of Dillon, Chief
of Police ?
JltdS' AUGUSTA, >1 A., Mar 7th, 186 S.—On
and after May 20tb, all DOGS found running at
large, without tho proper badge, will ho shot.
Collars for sale at tho I’olico Office.
W. C. DILLON,
Chief of Police.
Answer, and oblige yours respectfully,
Peknchguutt.
Mayor Blodgett wears a collar with “U.S.’’
on it—whose dog are you ? Aro you of tho
genus fine or terrier—short or curly tailed 7
or may lie you aro “a big yaller dorg” with
your tail “drove up.” You can get a collar
at the Police Office however, we suppose, for
the usual fee. You had, better do it at
once, only five days of grace.

Thu newspaper has recently changed
hands. We miss from its flag staff tho name
of oar old friend Sneed, and not) substi
tuted that of Mr. Joe Clisbjr, formerly con
nected with the same concern and having a
large editorial experience. We seo that
tho Griffin Star is afritid tho Telegraph will
lay down its arms against what the Star is
pleased to call “radicalism.” We know
not what course in that regard may be
pursued by Mr. 0., but wo do know that
there are many other editors in the State
who regret their action in the past cam
paign and can see now that a decent,
geutlemauly conduct of their papors, would
have ensured more to their own respecta
bility and reliability as journalists.
Tho fallowing anecdote of the “veteran
oditor," Joseph Gales, is a lesson to be
learned by a lnrgo number of the quill
driving fraternity. Read it.
During the Administration of Mr.Buchan
an, the writer of this, then a member of
Congress, wrota an article on public uffairs,
in wnich reference was made to the official
conduct of the President. In alluding to
hint, he was inelegantly styled “the old
man of the White House.” In the afternoon
of the same day that the communication
was sent to the National Intelligencer, for
publication, tho author received a note
from the “veteran editor,” Mr. Gales, rc-.
questing him to call at the Intelligencer
office
Knowing the delicate sense of propriety
that distinguished Mr. (L, it required but a
moment’s reflection for the offender to
conjecture tho object of the invitation. lie
went promptly, and, entering the little old
dingy sanctum, he found Mr. G. seated at
the editorial table, with a large pencil of
rod lead in his left hand, with which he
was slowly writing—his right lay useless
on the table, encased in a small bag of
drab-colored silk; it was paralyzed. Turn
ing his fine English face full upon his
visitor, after the usual salutation, he said,
“Mr. H—, while the article you favored us
with this morning is very well written, it is,
us I think, exceptionable, on account of
tho manner in which you refer to the
President. Suffer me to say that it is unjust
to your usual good taste. I beg that you
will alter it. lam no more the friend of
Mr. Buchanan than you are, but still I can’t
help thiuking it is. due the office he fills
that he should receive his appropriate title.
Your criticism of his acts will lose none of
its force by styling him the l’rosident.”
The writer good-naturedly replied : “ Mr.
Gales, I knew the moment I read your note
what you wanted. I felt guilty. I thank
you for your timely lesson.”
Os course the desired change was made.

Washing ton, May 14.— Senate: No ses

House. —After unimportant business, tho
omnibus admission bill was resumed.
Pruyu spoke iu opposition.
Brooks followed, and said it was unfit in
the character ot the Representative* in
alluding particularly to Florida.
Stevens interrupted, saying he was will
ing to agree thatKeprescntalives from Florida
should not be admitted.
Brooks said he was glad Stevens agreed
with him ou that point, and proceeded,
saying Georgia, Alabama, and others, were
controlled in like manner hy squatters, and
maintained that theso Constitutional Con
ventions and Legislatures were composed of
men who had no interest in the States, aud
who woro not understood by the people, nor
did they understand the people.
Brooks proceeded—a tyranny worse than
that ever countenanced by the Czar of
Russia or the Sultan of Turkey had been
perpetrated upon tho people there by the
powers that had determined to control the
•lections, by any means—no mutter how or
by what means. The whole ohjoct of
Congressional legislation was apparent; it
was all intended to Radicalize the South,
and the party in power hero have amnesty
and pardon and welcome for any man wiiti
embraces Radicalism ; no matter what his
past conduct or past acts may have been,
or how deeply and darkly his hands had
been imbued iu treason, those who accepted
Radical views were pardoned hy wholesale.
Paine and Bingham advocated the bill.
Woodbridge offered tin amendment to
strike Alabama from tho hill. Lost by GO
to 74.
Stevens’ amendment in reference to debts
due loyal men iu Georgia was adopted by
78 to 50.
Amendment striking from first section
the clause prohibiting change of Constitu
tion, and inserting that the Constitutions of
said States shall never be amended or
changed so as to discriminate in favor of or
against any citizen, or class of citizens of
the United States, in reference to the right
to vote, who are now entitled to vote by said
Constitutions. Adopted without division.
Amendment that all citizens of the
United States, in those States, shall be
admitted to equal rights of suffrage, was
rejected without division.
The bill then passed by 108 to 35.
