PeTpttn&l Congress.
The first step townrd a popular de*
pot Min would lw the v.uldisUiin-ht of s
oerpstuki cV»o_-re*». h veniJ five that 1
body a power that could scarcely have a
limit, and the Executive and Judiciary,
Departments would become mere pup
pets in the hands of the Connies*.
The wisdom of the Father* of the
Republic in dividing the functions of
tiovernment into throe Departments, is
apparent to all who will exumine the
subject. This division was iutundod to
establish a set of checks and balances
that would secure justice to all sections
of the Union, and to all classes of the
people. As long as these several
branches semained true to the Constitu
tion and to the ancient landmarks, there
was no danger to the liburtjqa ot the
people or to the integrity of the Union ;
but, unfortunately, as we have asserted
heretofore, the tendency of Republican
ism is greatly toward auarchv and des
potism. and we now find the popular
Department of the Government—Con
gress—overriding the Constitution, and
acting at variance with the Executive
Department.
Backed by the votes of the people of
the North, that body seems disposed to
grasp at still greater power, and to take
for itself a lease in perpetuity. Fortu
nately, however, the proposition does
not appear to meet with general favor,
and it is not likely that it will be adopted
lor the present, at least. It is to be
hoped that calmer councils will prevail,
and Radicalism cease to be as radically
Radical as it has been.

Home After Business.—The road
along which the man of business travels
in pursuit of competence or wealth is
not a macadamized one, or does it ordi
nary lead through pleasanrsccnes and
by well-springs of delight. the con
trary, it is a rough and rugged path,
beset with “wait-a bit” thorns, and full
of pitfalls whica can be avoided by the
watchful care of circumspection. After
every day's journey over this worse than
rough turnpike road, the wayfarer needs
something more than the rest; he re
quires solace and he deserves it. He is
weary of the dull prose of life, and a
thirst for the poetry. Happy is the bus.
iness man who can find that solace and
that poetry at home. Warm greetings
from loving hearts, fond glances from
bright eyes, the welcome shouts of chil
dren, the many thousand arrangements
for our comfort and enjoyment that si
lently tell of thoughtful and expectant
love, the gentle ministrations that disen
cumber us into an old and easy seat be
fore we are aware of it; these and like
tokens of affection and sympathy consti
tute the poetry which reconciles us to
the prose of life. Think of this, ye wives
and daughters of business tnen 1 Think
of the toils and anxieties and mortifica
tions and wear that fathers undergo to
secure for you a comfortable home, and
Compensate them for the trials by
milking them happy by their own fire
sides.
Curious Behavior of a Portland
Girl.—A beautiful young lady of Port
land (exposed iu a letter to the Boston
Herald ) frequently, during the past year,
has been in the habit of getting herself
up as an aged man, and coming to town
on the cars. In her disguise she would
stroll about the city to her heart’s con
tent, and return home to tell the few
friends iu the secret, of the fun she had
enjoyed. If spoken to, she feigned deaf
ness. The veucrable form had become
quite familiar in the streets of Portland;
but none dreamed that beneath those
green goggles sparkled a pair of roguish
eyes. But the romantic young heroine
came to grief. Protracting her strolls
the other day, the train was leaving the
statiju just as she limped into the de
pot. A smart run enabled the foolish
girl to throw herself upon the rear plat
form, hut just as she did so, away went
hat, wig, and goggles. Two gentlemen
on the rear platform were considerably
astonished, but the young lady had suf
ficient presence of mind to explain, in a
few frightened sentences, the pusitiou of
affairs, and, it being nightfall, the gen
tb men, who proved to be the genuine
article, got the girl to her home without
further publicity.
Tilt t xxsus.—We observe that the
census e fU nlgomery, and other South
ern cities, nave lately been taken. The
following is the Montgomery result :
Whites- Male*, 2,911, females, 2,615
total whites, 5,526. Colored—-males,
3 181, leroak-s, 4,355 —total colored,
7 536. Total population, 13,062.
Would it not he well to have a correct
statement of the inhabitant* of Augusta
made out'/ It bus been a longtime
since the bkciiau attempted here.
Hon- Win- Gibson.
It will be teen by the following l«U*r
that Judge Win. Gibson has
i« the esc of his name as a candidate
Ibr the Judgeship of tbe Middle Circuit.
Richmond cottnfy being the principal
county in the Circuit, it is desired, by
the Bar here, that the Judgo nhouU
reside in or near Augusta; Judge Gib
son meets this requirement, being a
resident of this City. lie has had no
little experience in judicial affairs, and
will meet with a warm support from
those who served with him in the army.
The following is his letter:
7b the Voters of the Middle Judicial
Circuit.
In consenting to become a candidate
W the Judgeship ot the Middle Circuit,
1 do uol intend to canvass lor an elec
tion. W'ere I assured of the propriety
of such a course, neither time nor means
would permit me to adopt it.
The past ten years of my life have
been almost exclusively devoted to ihe
service of the State. This service has
been in both military and civil life- —-in
the legislative hulls and on the battle
field—in war and in peace. I have
always endeavored to discharge my duty
faithfully, honestly, honorably. What
ever I have accomplished, 1 have been
made to feel that it has not advanced
my pecuniary interests. 1 desire to
abandon tho field of politics, and sin
cerely trust that the tocsin of war will
never again be souuded, at least in our
day aud generation. 1 wish to pass the
remainder of my lile engaged exclu
sively iu tho duties of that profession to
which I have been attached from youth.
Age, physical condition, and considera
tion for the interests of iny family, de
mand it of me; but I shall ever feel
proudly grateful to the generous and
noble people who have so often honored
me with their confidence aud support.
It is not without diffidence aud dig
trust that I have submitted my name as
a candid te for the Judgeship of the
Superior Court of this Circuit, Pure
and impartial justice, and a firm admin
istration of the laws, demands the high
est qualities of the head and heart. 1
can only promise an honest and constant
endeavor to discharge faithfully the
duties ot the office, and so preserve the
sanctity and dignity of the position so
long, so Well, and so worthily filled by
the late lamented Judge Holt—the
mode! Judge.
Relying upon the active and generous
support which the brave soldiers residing
within the Circuit have ever given me,
and upon that confidence with which
the people have so often honored uic, I
trust to your active sympathies for sup
port, at the election on Wednesday, the
2d day of January next.
Your fellow-citizen,
Wm. Gtnsox.
Augusta, December 8, iB6O.
Congressional Election in the
Seventh District. —No definite con
clusion lias as yet been arrived at
relative to the election in the Seventh
District. Thus far the vote foot; up :
liambletor: 664 : Calhoun 593; Prin
tup 567 ; Little 638.
Since the above was in type, we have
received the Rome Courier of the 6th,
which contains the following:
*‘We learn through a friend at Cal
houn (Colonel Little’s residence), that
the returns he has received up to the
4th instant, foot up as follows :
I.itllo -. SSU
JlaniLlcion *1 tl 7
Priutup 567
“The writer had heard from all the
counties except Chattooga and the out
side precincts of Cherokee and Walker.
He states that Little received nearly
the entire vote of Dade, Whitfield,
Catoosa, Murray, Walker, and Gordon.
‘‘The |iolls were not opened at King
ston, Cartersville, nor- Allatoona. and
probably no other place in Bartow
county.
‘‘The vote of Chattooga gives Little
17 plurality above Hambleton.”
Shootino Akkra v.—The Atlanta Era
reports, that on Wednesday night last
three men, Tippin, Harcrow, and Mor
row, stopped at the house of a Mr.
Morris,, at Buckhead, on the Georgia
Railroad, to spend the night. They had
been in the house but a short time,
when a party of eight men surrounded
it lor the purpose of securing the three—
the latter having committed some mis
demeanor in a neighboring locality.
Finding they were surrounded, Harcrow
went to the door and commenced firing
upon the outsiders, who immediately
returned the fire, killing ITurcrow, seven
bulls passing through his body. Mr.
Morris, in attempting to close the door
while the firing was goiug on, received
an accidental but fatal shot from Ilar
etow’s pistol. He died in a very few
minutes, llis son was also wounded,
but it is believed not mortally. The
other two men were then captured, and
bound, and carried.
Boys Using Tohacco.— It is said that
there are no boys now, but the following
strong, sensible, good, sharp saying is
designed for that portion of the i/enus
homo, known as “ Young America,”
who use tobacco:
“it has utterly spoiled and utterly
ruined thousands of boys. It tends to
soltening aud weakening ol the bones,
and it greatly injures the brain, the
spinal marrow and the whole nervous
fluid. A hoy who smokos early and
frequently, or in any way uses large
quantities of tobacco, is never known to
make a man of much energy, and gen
erally lacks muscular and physical, as
well as mental, power. We would par
ticularly warn boys, who want to be
anything in the world, to shun tobacco
as a most baneful poison.”
Dividends.—The Augusta and .Sa
vannah Railroad management has de
clared a Dividend of three dollars
thirty three and one third per cent, on
each share, payable on demand at the
Central Railroad Bank, in Savannah.
The United States tax will bo paid by
