This question is agitating the public mind in various portions of the State, and pubiic meetings have been held in several of the Counties to take some aciion on the subject. It is one of considerable importance, and should be thoroughly discussed. The vicissitudes of the war have left hundreds, nay thousands, without tho means of paying their debts, and it would seem to be the refinement of cruelty to drive them to (he wall, at this time. A spirit of for bearance ami a willingness to grant the utmost possible time to debtors, should govern creditors ; and 'thus the weight and responsibility of indebtedness might, I . some degree, at least, be relieved, and parties be enabled the better to work out their redemplion. In the Georgia Enterprise is found an extract from the charge of Judge A. M. Spear, of the Flint Circuit, to the Grand .Tnrv of the Superior Court of Newton County, which we append here n-ld commend to the careful atten tion and consideration of our readers generally. It contains suggestions worthy of adoption, and which do credit to their distinguished author* And, now gentlemen, in concluding this charge, 1 beg leave for a moment to add a word or two on a subject that is now agitating, to a considerable ex tent, the public inind. 1 refer to the question of the indebtedness of the peo ple. It does not become me to suggest legislative remedies for these troubles from this position—to give my views upon questions whose constitutionality may become in time subject matters of judicial settlements in the courts. All these I pass by. I simply point to the Startling fact that all the taxable prop erty of Georgia, approximating seven hundred millions in 1860, lias, by the results of war, been reduced two hun dred millions. And yet. a large quan tity of the ante-war indebtedness still remains unpaid. By far the largest portion of this loss lias fallen upon the agricultural classes of our State. When men, prudent, industrious, and debt paying—have thus, by the calamities of wi»r and the action of the military force, had two-thirds and often more of theif estate swept away without fault upon their part, should it not appeal, in language eloquent in its justice, to tSiose of our creditor class, who still command this Indebtedness of our peo ple? To, the credit of our commercial classes, it may be said that they lmve re sponded liberally and promptly, I learn, to their debtor class, ruined by the war. And we must hear in mind this creditor class live in a section from whence we might have anticipated the least favor to onr people. But so far from mani festing this spirit of unkindness, the Northern merchant has, I learn, in a majority of cases, compounded liberally with his debtors here, and even extend ed aid to him to resume business. Shall our home creditors do less? Shall it he said that after having passed together through the fiery trial of this war —emerging from it with broken spirits and shattered fortunes—onr own people are to hunt down the unfortunate debtor, and drive, by cruel exactions, his family from the desolate, flame-scorched walls that the rapacity ol war has spared him ? I trust not. I earnestly recom mend through you, gentlemen, to the people of this county, a spirit of forbear ance, of kindness, of justice to the debtor class—a spirit of settlement and compromise that will breathe new life into our failing energies, nerve anew the spirit sinking under a hopeless load of embarrassment, that will be felt in all the Avenues of trade and industry, and gradually lift our people to comfort and prosperity. This policy will bless not only the debtor class, the people, the country, and its industry, but it will re flect in return upon the creditor, and confer upon him, it may be, amid the deep shadows of life’s last lingering hours, a sweet consciousness of duty uone—of kindness to his fellow man, that he would not exchange for all the dross of earthly treasures. PRIME “Nail Them to the Goontuh.”— Under the above caption, the Savannah Republican presents its readers with a batch ol dispatches, appearing as “spe cials from Savannah" in the Cbicngo Journal t Savannah, Ga., Sept. B.—The editor the Republican paper has received an anonymous letter, warning hint to sus pend publication and leave the State. Onr informant states that a military guard has been ordered to take up their quarters in the building for its protec tion. Hon. A. 11. Stephens has been offered the Mayorship of the city. Savannah, Ga., Sept. 10.—-There is a rumor afloat that General J. C. Breck inridge will shortly return to this coun try and settle in Charleston, South Caro lina. An attempt was made to burn the Rejmblican newspaper building last night, which signally failed, the military frightening tho incendiaries away. The Republican, in commenting on these specials, pronounce them to be “unmitigated falsehoods.” “They do not contain a word of truth—are wholly destitute of foundation. The editor of the Republican has not received any warning to suspend publication—no military has been placed over this estab lishment. None has been needed, and there is no probability that any ever will be. No attempt has been made to burn the Republican office.” The object of such dispatches as the above, will he at once perceived by every thinking mind. It is, first, to create the impression at the North and in the West that we of the South are still “unhar monized,” and tho sworn enemies of all Northern men, and ultimately to assist the Radicals in the elections soon to he held. Similar lying dispatches have been sent from Louisville and other points South—all having the same ob ject in view. Credit is due the Repub lican editor for the promptness with which he has given the lie to the Jour nal’s Savannah specials. Apropos, the Macon Citizen publishes the following item, as furnished to the Pittsburgh Chronicle "by its Georgia correspondent, said to be one Eberhart, superintendent of the freed men’s schools in this State : That murders of freedmen and other outrages upon them still continue. In one county four ireedmen were found murdered at a single point. A olergy man informs him that in another county five were found murdered in one place, and in still another, six freedmen were found hanging to a tree, with a label on a stick near them bearing the inscrip tion, “A Free Transportation to Cuba.” The freed people's church in Jones boro was.destroyed by fire a few weeks ago, the work of a white incendiary ; and there is a gang of jay-hawkers in that locality which keeps both whites and blacks in a state of terror by their atrocities.” Such, remarks the Citizen , is a speci men of the stuff that these Radical emissaries transmit to their brethren, North, in order to keep up the Freed men’s Bureau in the South, under the plea oj' necessity tor still further protec tion of the negro. An Interesting Package.—The Richmond Examiner of the 18th instant contains the following: A. Holt, Agent of the Southern Ex press Company, has in his possession a package which was forwarded from New Orleans in May last by one of the agents, and since which time it has vis ited nearly every office in the country. The package contains the photograph of the “lost damsel,” who has “No one to love her, No 1 to kurress.” And although the picture has been ex hibited in New York, Philadelphia, Cin cinnati, Boston, Wilmington, Charleston, Augusta, Macon, Atlanta, Mobile, Mont gomery, this city, and other points, the ownership has not been estab lished. The Wilmington agent is try ing to fasten the thing on Boston, but the agent of the last city denies the soft impeachment. O’Brieu, of theßich mond office, has taken the rag off the bush, made several additions, writes a few lines, and turns the maid over to the Bureau. The Bureau didn’t see Ihe drawers, and no money being visi ble, the package is again on the travel, and is expected shortly to be in posses sion of Frank Neely, agent at New Orleans, who is expected to take a hand in O’Brien's reconstruction. The cor respondence that has passed between the respective audits on the subject, including that Wilmington poetry, will afford excellent Sunday reading, and will shortly be published. The package cousists of a china negro baby minus one arm, and without clothing. The Boston office endeavored to reset the arm, and charged $ 1.50 for his bungling effort at surgery.' The clerks at the office in this city, finding her naked, furnished clothing, for which no charge was made. Personal.—The annexed personal notice appears in the Lynchburg (Va.) News, of the 24th instant: “Any person knowing the whereabouts of Mrs. Susan L. Newgeun, whose maiden name was Mitchell, who went from this city to Au gusta, Ga., and there married, but re turned here in June last, will confer a great favor by communicating with this office at once. White Corn The Late Cotton Order. —The Atlanta lii’clliijehrer has been kindly permitted to use the ann-xed letter, ad dressed to uue of the Gate City’s long established Cotton Factors. It conveys information needed by tho planter at this time. It is explanatory of General Orders No. 21, and the objects contem. plated are creditable to Brevet Major General R. K. Scott: H’dq’rs Ass t Commissioner | Bureau R., F., and A. L., S. C., r Charleston, S. C., Sept. 18. J Mr. —: Sir—l am instructed by Brevet Major General R. K. Scott to inform you, in in answer to your inquiries, that as soon as the freed people are sufficiently impressed with the idea that they can not sell, or otherwise dispose of their shares ot the crop in small lots, when ever they see fit, before a general division of the same may have been made, he will issue such orders as will permit the planters to go on and gin tho cotton. The circular, ns issued for instruc tions to the officers of the Bureau, was intended as a eheck to, and a protection to both planters and freedmen from, the petty pilfering which would he so disadvantageous to both parties. I am, sir,*very respectfully, Your obedient servant, 11. W. Smith, Assistant Adjutant General. The President's Policy.—A special to the Philadelphia Ledger, from Wash* ington, says Tburlow Weed (who isj really the active and controlling editow of the New York Times) has been! there on a political mission, which is' believed to have for its object, a otodifi-j cation of the Presidential policy, so asi to secure the early representation on the South in Congress, through tin* adoption of the Constitutional Amend-, merit.
