It arrives at the following conclusion in reference to the treatment of the South, which conclusion is doubtless concurred in by a large body of people at the North: The cominoVscnsc view is not to force repulsive professions of allegiance down Southern throats, to exact strin gent oaths, to take away property and demand life by wav of vengeance, to keep clamoring for the trial of Davis and reproaching the South with the failure of its cause. It is rather to be generous about the past, but cautious about the future; to forgive all former lapses, but take care that there shall never be any more with regard to seces sion or slavery. In so doing, it is wise to give the South credit for the same sincerity in its opinions with regard to the advantages of secession and slavery which its opponents have always claimed in holding opposite views. Indeed, to believe that the Southern people, from mere selfish consideration, could, in a twelve month, reverse tjie current of their sentiment on national topics, is to offer them a gratuitous insult, aud one which their gallant mid obstinate con duct in the field for four years dues not deserve. Pickle Puisoning.— lt has been offi cially announced, in London, that most of the popular pickles, known as “pica lili,” are made out of pickles that have become putrid, and have been mixed with mustard and turmeric to make them saleable. This >l picalili” afflict ed so many with choleraic symptoms that it attracted judicial attention, and hence the expose■ It should be known that pickle poisoning is not a rare event, by any means, in the United States. Pickles should always be eaten with great distrust, unless yon put them up yourself, and know exactly how harm, less is the process employed to embel lish and disqualify them. Life of Gen. N. B. Forrest. —The Atlanta Intelligencer states, by that a gentleman of distinguished lite rary ability is now engaged in writing a history ot General Forrest’s cavalry command. The General desires that those who contributed to his promotion should share whatever of fame or dis. tinction may be accorded to him. Any officer or private who was in his com mand, and who can recall any anefcdotes, incidents, or items of any kind, of inter est to the historian, will please carefully prepare sueli manuscript and forward to Captain G. W. Adair, at Atlanta, who will give it the proper direction. There were txvo Georgia regiments at the cap ture of Murfreesboro, whose members could contribute items of great interest. Great Masonic Gathering in Bal timore.—A meeting of the Grand Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons has been called to meet in the Mouuniental City on the 17th of the present month, for the purpose of making arrangements for laying the corner stone of the new Tem ple on North Charles street. It is un derstood that the Order design making the event one of the greatest demonstra tions of the kind that has yet taken place in this country, aud that members of the ancient Order will be present from every section of the Union. What a Mess a Miss Made. —A mar. ried officer on arriving at tbe Curragh, whither he had been ordered to join his regiment, wrote to his wife that he had “formed a connection with a very agree able mess, and expected to spend the summer very pleasantly.” Unfortu nately, and greatly to the surprise and mortification of his good lady, he inad vertently dotted the letter e in the word mess. Only think of it. General Gustavos W. Smith. —ln a letter from Chattanooga to the editor of the Memphis Avalanche , General Smith denies that he wrote the criticism of the Dalton campaign, recently published, and says: “But since my name has beeu publicly connected with it, I feel not only at liberty, but constrained, to say that, in my judgment, controversies of the character provoked by, and almost certain to spring from, publications of this sort, are at present ill-timed.” A Nut fob the Rads. —The Darling ton (S. C.) Southerner says that there is a movement on hand among the freedmen of that place to get up a peti tion to the President for the withdrawal of the military, the abolition of Provost Courts, aud putting a stop to the inter ference of the Bureau with the affairs of the blacks. Marriage in England. —Col. Alfred Rbett and Miss Alice Sparks, of Charles ton, S. C., were married on the 14th of August, at All Saints’ Church, Upper Norwood, Surrey (England), by the Rev. James Watson. BRAN, Etc Death of a Promising Young Cit iupr.—Most forcibly and constantly are we reminded of the verity of that truth: “ In the midst of life, we are in death.” Yesterday we chrouicled the demise of au estimable lady, and to day we record the death of a prooiising young citizen. Richard Moore Frost was a young man of no ordinary ability, as the success he met with in life abundantly demonstra ted. Prosecuting his studies privately, in the Medical College, at this place, he graduated in Dentistry, with distinction, in his 21st year. He then removed to Anderson, S. C., where he commenced to prepare to enter the Episcopal minis try, he being a zealons member of the Episcopal Church. Why he abandoned those studies we are not advised ; but, in abandoning the study of theology he did not cease to demean himself as a true follower of Christ. In professional and social life,Richard Frost was a Christian gentleman. He bid fair to become distinguished in his chosen profession, aud his death cannot but be rendered a public calamity. Dr. Frost died in Crawfordvillo, Ga.. (where he xras residing), last Sabbath, the tfth inst. The fatal disease was diptheria. Peace to his soul. The Political Situation in New York —The Herald of a recent date give? an encouraging view of the politi cal situation in New York. It says the developments in every part of the coun try furnish unmistakable proof that the Conservative movement now in progress has really taken the character of a gen eral uprising in the people. A revolu tion in the politics of the country will unquestionably follow. The fact has become so apparent that Secretary Sew ard has predicted that this State will give forty thousand majority against the Radical party. We do not expect so large a majority as that, for tho reason that the.canvass is too short; but we do not think that the Empire State will give less than twenty thousand for the Conservative party. We.shall be satisfied with that figure in the State, with twe thirds of the members of Congress. This mueh can be secured, if tbe nomi nations for Congress on the Conservative side are judiciously selected. Rev. John F. Berry. —The Macon Journal it Messenger, of the 9th inst., is informed that tbe Rev. John F. Berry, a member of the Georgia Conference, was killed by lightning, at his residence, in Ellaville, on Wednesday last. Mr. Berry was in charge of the Ellaville Circuit, and had just finished a discourse to his congregation and returned home; scarcely had ho taken bis seat when he received the stroke of lightning, which killed him instantly. His wife, who was in another part of the house at the time, received a shock which prostrated her. How true it is that “in the midst of life we are in death.” Thus, in the twinkling of an eye, has a good man been snatched from the bosom of his family. Death found him ready for the summons. Large Returns. —The Assessor of the Second District of Georgia reports that, fur the fiscal year ending June 30th, the property assessed in the thirty four counties composing the District amount to over $2,300,000. On this amount taxes must he paid to the U. S. Government. The sum is said to be considerably larger than the returns from some of the Northern States. The Columbus Sun, from which we glean the above, says that Assessor Webster will leave for Washington in a few days, when he will endeavor to get the Treasury regulations so modified as to let cotton seek its proper mart, and there be weighed and assessed. This privilege is now granted to Alabama planters, whose market is Columbus. Condensation. — Condensation, says a contemporary, is the new order of the day iu newspaper literature. The his tory which the world is making speaks to us by the hour in brief and pithy sen tences along the telegraph wire, whether through the air or under the fathomless waters, and no old-fashioned modes of conducting newspapers can resist such a renovation as this. The County Court. —The Grand Jury returned twelve true bills yester day. The majority are larceny cases, and the defendants freedmen. Three negroes were found guilty of the charge of simple larceny. One was acquitted of a similar charge. The Court adjourned at 6 P. M. until 9} o’clock this morning. Arrest. —Paul Simmons was arrested yesterday, charged with stealing and killing a beef. After investigation by a J. P. a true bill, for simple larceny, was found, and his trial set for to. day. For Sale by Our Annual City Directory. We issued last year our first Directo ry of tlie City of Augusta. We stated theu that we intended to issue it annual ly, and in accordance with this promise the second number will he issued as soon after October as possible. Our canvas sers will wait upon our citizens, and will, we hope, be received with the same cour tesy and attention as they were last year.
