You make Nothing by it. We regret to sec some of the most fiery Democratic editors are indulging in the most unscrupulous denunciation of Governor Bi llo< k aud Congress. Os what use is it to thus stir up the passions of the people ? Certainly, forcible resistance to any act of Con gress is not seriously contemplated. Why this agitation ? Why this abuse I If it served to defeat any action by Congress, then such a course would be I more defensible. But these editors know that such anathemas against Southern Republicans creates a sym. pathy lor the victims of Democratic I vengeance. Bullying has long since ’ ceased to have its ante-bellum effect on , Ithe American people. However ob jectionable any legislation may be to I Democrats, it would entirely be the 1 better part of wisdom to wait to see 1 what that legislation is before going ‘ I into hysterics over it. VV ait until you arrive at the bridge before you cross over it. For onr part, we have not believed, and do not believe, that our affairs will be changed, except for the better. There is no use of blowing, and denouncing, and threatening. Such a course amounts to nothing. Miscellaneous Editorial Items. When the Government taxon whis key was $2.00 per gallon, the highest amount of revenue collected any one year was $29,000,000. Since the re duction to sixty cents per gallon the IMstStlTfl fl I’l . f-*st of Congress sell their franks to busi ness men. This is incredible; but there is no question that the privilege is greatly abused by membersfranking letters and printed matter tin- outside parties. This is not morally so mon strous as selling them; but it is never theless a palpable violation of law. Gen. Joseph E. Johnston informs the editor of the Columbus Sun that he will make Georgia his future home. The Columbus tSken gives Captain J. E. Bhyant cold comfort in discuss ing the latter’s recent political tergiv ersations. The Result of the Year's Work. 'Die Macon Jieetrnal <C‘ Messenger is satisfied with the result of the present year’s work in the South, and says: What are those results 'i Briefly stated, we may say that enough grain has been pro duced in the South the present year to teed its whole population, either in the shape of "breadstuffs or an equivalent of beet and bacon. Beyond this, it is estimated that there will be a surplus for sale, consisting of, say, two million and a half bales of cotton, one hundred and twenty thousand hogsheads of sugar, together with liberal crops of to baccu, rice, and considerable quantities of other marketable products, all of which, it is supposed, wifi amount to the aggregate 'mue of three hundred million dollars. Pretty good, that. And we believe, too, tliat the proceeds of this snug sum total will, more-than that of any other planting season, go to build up an active and profitable home trade, to promoting every safe home enter prise, and garnering up all the constituents that give elegance nnd comfort to homo life. We believe that the country, in its natural and artificial features, will have more to show for it than in any former year of its history, and that our people, in their homes, their habits, and their business pursuits, will all reflect the blessings ami advantages shining forth from the new era upon which we seem about to enter. So mote it be! Don t Listen.—The Macon Tclc (jrnph takes us to task for advising the people not to notice the “ wrang ling.*” of politicians, and reminds us of - the many disastrous consequences which have resulted from political ’ “wrangling.” We admit all this; , but Would remind our cotemporary if, ; the people had not listened to and » encouraged (his “ wrangling.” If the people will stand aloof now and let ' the “ wranglers” alone, the South and the country will he better oil; Don't listen to them. Another Georgia Bh,u—lt will lie seen by reference to our telegrapliic columns that Senator Pomeboy has introduced a bill authorizing the reas sembling of the Georgia Constitutional Convention. Drawing for Seats in the House. The third < I rawing for cuts in the House of Hepiesentativcs, at Wnsli n.gUm, during the Fortieth CoOgrtas, took place on Wednesday last, with the following result, as «e learn from the X'itional Ropvblirau : The first name drawn war, Unit of Mr. Biwi’iwcll. of Illinois, who took a scat to ward the nsu ot the main section on publican side, n seat he luei oa npled all of !he flilrtv-nin’h Congress, but fromi which be was ousted at the first drawing tor the Fortieth Congress. .Mr. .1.

DickeCs n.uiie drawn, and Mr. Sypher verv iiolittly vacated the seal, and it is very piom-rly occupirsl by Mr. Htevens' successor. The name of Mr. Mullens, of Tennessee, was one of the earliest drawn, and ns soon as his name was announced he made a t egular hop. skip and jump down the main aisle to his old scat, and ns he neared it, cut the most singu lar antics, leaping in the nir and jumping nbout just as a child would v ho had become possessed unexpectedly of some coveted arti cle Hi.s antics excited the greatest I.mgbtci in all parts of the House, and it was some minutes before the Speaker could restort order sufficiently for the ( lerk to proceed. Messis. Woodward, of Pennsylvania, and Eggleston, of < thio, were next drawn succes sivelv and obtained more eligible swits than thev’hnd previously occupied. Mr. Boyden, of North Carolina, Who has been occupying a corner on the Democratic side, secured tb< seat of Mr. I’ruvn, one of th.: Uwt on UR main aisle, and .Mr. Pruyu's name ’’<>■ b- uig call.sl until the last, he was forced to lake . rear txrsiti.m. Mr. Higby, of Uah orma, lei an out-of-the way seat on the femoerati side for a prominent chair on the Kepubltcai side. Mr.* W. B. Washburn, of Massnchu setts took possession of tire seal so iong occupied by Mr. E. B. Washburn, but when the latter's name was called, Ins scat was returned Io him, and his namesake look a scat in the mnge behind him Mr. IT. D. Washburn, of Indiana, first took .Mi. Scho field’s seat, but subsequently returned it to him and took a front chair in the same sec tion beside bis colleague, Mr. Ortle Air Shanks transferred his |s>sition from a corner on the Republican side to a more eligible position on the same side. Mr. G-ai fieldand Mr. Allison, respectively obtained the seats occupied by Mr. Schenck and Mi. Blaine forcing the Chairman ot the w ays and Means Committee and the Maine mem ber further to the rear. Messrs. Van 1 rump, of Ohio, and Phelps, Stone and rbomaSjOi Maryland, all secured their old scats. .Hr. McCulloch, of Maryland, was not present, and his seat was taken by Air. Wilson, ot Pennsylvania. Mr. Cullom got 1 ngcrsoll s seal and the jovial chairman of the District Committee was compelled to take to a corner outside of the direct range oK the bpeaker s eye. Ak. Ela, of New Hampshire, came from the rear tow more eligible scat at the front Air. Dixon, of Rhode Island, moved from Um Democratic to the Republican side. Mr Barnes, of New A’ork. ousted Air. Ar cher of Maryland, but the latter was called in time to enable him to get a .first-rate seat a little further to the front. Air. Cobb, of Wisconsin, was driven from the centre ot the Republican section to a seat directly on the left of the Speaker. Air. Griswold, of New York, left the Democratic side and took Mr. Farnsworth’s old scat. Bingham and Ames were fortunate in securing their old positions. ~ . When Mr. Glossbrcnncr’ii name was called Ids seat hud not yet been occupied, and lie ' made a straight line for it; but before he ■ could reach it, Air. Plants, of Ohio whom fortune’s wheel had driven from the Repub- lican side, dropped into it, and Mr. Gloss brenner took a seat behind him. Messrs. Go vode, of Pa., and Deweese, of N. C., got seats together iu the front row of one ot lire Republican sections. By this lime nearly all the seats on the Republican side had liecn oc cupied. the Southern members generally taking good positions there. The Republi cans wlio had not yet been called began to look blank. Toward the last the name of 1 General Buller was called, and after looking lime there was only one Republican member in his vicinity, but lie began to colonize, and oon gathered a number alxnit him; for Messrs. Hooper, of Mass., Farnsworth, of 111.. Jackson, of 11. 1., Beaman, of Mich., and others, took scuts around him. Air. Donnelly, of Minnesota, got a seat within reach of Air. E. B. Wasliburne. Messrs. Wood ami Eldridge were forced to rear positions, as was also Air. Biw>ks, .Mr. Spalding, of Ohio, left the society of Mr’ Williams, of Tennessee, and, with Mr. .Mar shall, of Illinois, took it seat toward the rear of the Democratic section. Wilson, of lowa Kelley, of Pennsylvania, and Paine, of Wis consin. were forced away back on the Re publican side. Kellog, of Alabama got one of the best seats in the House. Alessrs. Boutwell and Eliot, of Massachusetts, had to content tlu-msehes with back seats on the outer circle. Meanwhile Mr. Ross, of Il linois, who was the mover and author of the resolution, looked on in vain and heard every name called but his own. Finally, within i-vb , or three of the last. J*» <>«.-« caftof, and ob tained oonier scat furthest to the right 'of the Speaker. His discomfiture was cheered by the uhole House. Air. Peters, of Maine, got a better scat than he formeily had. but Mr. Lynch was forced further off on the Democratic side. Air. Poland, of Vermont, also fared badly. It is a singular lad that the drawing be fore this one was moved by Air. Poland, and his name was called first, and he got an eligi ble seat, while on this occasion Mr. Rost , who moved the resolution, was almost the last man called. < The Pope’s Blessing on WarMa ; teßial.—A letter from Rome gives an account of the Pope blessing the , war material presented by thc°Vcii . dcan-Breton committee. The pieces consisted of a complete battery of rifled cannon, four mountain howitzers and the regulation ambulances for an entire division. A large number of persons wore present mid saluted the Sovereign Pontiff with the warmest acclamations. His Holiness, after ex pressing his thanks, went on to sav: “For me, who am a Minister of Peace, it may appear that I am misplaced in the midst of arms and the apparatus of artillery. But lam the Minister of God, and the fact must be remembered that the Almighty, who calls himself the God of I’eaCe, is also the God of Battles, aud that evil must always be combatted. I, the Vicar of Jesus Christ, I defend everywhere through out the world, truth, justice, and the rights of every one; aud this is why the whole universe ought to unite to sustain me in my rights. I thank you who are here present, all that select youth, and those whom you represent, as well as those who arc'more directly iny subjects, and who ardently defend with you the same cause. r lTiis is how, with your arms, with these weapons, ami especially with the protection of the Most High, we shall see that our enemies w ill be slopped before these imperishable walls of the Vatican. That will be, if our life, by its holi ness, is in conlorinily with onr mis sion. That will be, if we are with God and His justice; if He is in us by His grace, then God will I>e fully and truly with us.

AIcCfLLOCII. Secretary of the Treasury. How Bakon Rothschild Lived. — As every one is- interested to know how so rich a man as Barou Roths child lived, correspondents are par ticular as to every movement of his daily life. It is related that he rose every morning at six o’clock. His body servant shaved and dressed him. Meanwhile, M. Boudeville, a teacher of elocution who fits people for the stage, read the newspapers to him and told him the gossip of the green rooms of the Paris theatres. He was dressed for the Say at this early hour, putting on even a white cravat. He next received a Prussian named Ber nardi, xvith whom he examined the unotations from .the great exchanges - -.-iTT-m-xv ruceivcu tnecorresjkm deuce - clerks, took from them the more im -1 portant letters which required a reply r from . the Baron, and approved or 1 modified the proposed replies to other ’ letters. Then the almoner came, in t and reported on the poor relieved, and received new instructions. lie > then went to Mme. Rothschild for her • instructions. After the almoner re tired the Baron received his experts— r men who kept him informed of all > art and book sales; they made reports or received instructions. Hethen went ) to breakfast. AH the family met at . breakfast, and usually one or two of ’ his married children were present. After breakfast the Baron went to his u office (which was on the j street, '-••parated from his house ’l by the court yard; a covered way reached from one to the other) to re ceive people. At two o’clock hs would sometimes goto the Bourse, or oftener to the auction mart, for he was fond of buying objects of curiosity and pic tures. He would return to his office, and at four o’clock drive down to Chateau de Sureene or Bois de Bou logne, returning at five o’clock to his club, where he would play whist at 1 ten sous a point until dinner time. I During the last part of his life he be j came eccentric in a good many small j matters. lie carried a portemonnaie which was closed by a lock, although he never carried more than fifty francs about him p* if a man carries more he is sometimes led to extravagant ex pense,” he used to say), ami often nothing at all. He carried the key of the lock on his watch chain. The members of the club in thcßucßoyalc used to laugh to sec the Baron fum bling for his key, nnd even his lock (his sight was laterly impaired), and when, at last, he managed to open the portemonnaie, to find it empty. After dinner he received company at home, or went to some theatre. ; —Hon. Fernando Wood purchased, , on the 15th, from S. P. Brown, Esq,, the corner house in the new and ele gant block just completed at the corner of I mid Fifteenth streets, im mediately opposite Senator Morgan’s, in Washington city, for $40,000, cash. It is stated that Mr Wood will furnish the house immediately, and occupy it as his residence. —Mr. John Norris, a printer well known in Washington, committed suicide by taking morphine, on the Istli. It is said that he was a fine looking man, aged a)»out thirty years, married, and leaves a wife and three small children, residing ar 105 I) street, in that city - .Mr. Ashley s bill for the relief of women in the District of Columbia, prox ides that no person shall be debarred from voting or bedding office in the District <>l Columbia 'by reason of sex.
