The RAII.Y I’UKSS it tin the Otllclnl Taper •« Ike CUy of Augusta, baring been circled by the City Council a« tbelr Olfieial Organ. OUR CITY. The statement of Major Foster, in his Message to the City Council, that tho City of Augusta is one of the most orderly and peaceable cities in the Union, is exceedingly gratifying. It is true, once in a while there is a fight, or a roobery com mitted, but instances of this kind are rare, and but exceptions to tbe general rale. - To-keep np this high character should be the earnest desire of our au thorities apd people; and to this end the Police force should be kept up to its present strength and efficiency for the future. h An ounce of prevention is indeed worth a pound of cure and it is more to the credit ot the City and tbe advnn. tage of the community to prevent a dis turbance or robbery, than to arrest and puoish the guilty parties after the com mission of the offence. The officers of the Police are experienced and oner getic men, and knowing their duty are not afraid to perform it. The Chief of Polifce, Mr. J. A. Christian, Captain J. A. Ben net, Lieutenants B. F. Johnson, Thomas Walsh, and Charles .Evans, with the Sergeants, are all courteous gentle men as well as good officers, and the City Council has done well to retain thehi in office. So far as the Finances are concerned, the exhibit made by His Honor is very favorable. Those who desire to know more need not trouble the newspapers on the subject, for they can gratify their curiosity by calling on the courteous and accommodating Collector and Treas urer, Dr. I. P. Garvin, who will take pleasure in showing and explaining everything to their satisfaction. It is to be hoped that this favorable condition of affairs will continue. Free Government. We hear nnd read a great deal about free Government, and the rights el the South in the Union, but it really doesn’t amount to much after all. We have no free Government, and the South has no rights under the Government. The first has been changed, and the latter entirely destroyed by the war. If we could bring ourselves to realize this fact, we should feel less disposed to talk and write grandiloquently and vitopera tively on political affairs. The fact is, that we are a conquered people, with no rights except such as the conqueror chooses to give us. Now, the only question is, who is the conqueror ? Is it the Northern people, the United States Congress, or President Johnson ? When this question is decided, then we shall be better prepared to speak and to act. In the meantime, we deem it the most advisable policy to ‘‘harmonize’’ as mach as possible, to avoid all unne cessary vituperation, or if our feelings will not permit us to do this, to preserve a dignified si ence. Surely this is no mean submission, but a calm and grace ful yielding to what cannot be avoided. If we had a free Government, we should be iu a far different situation. We should be a united and far more prosperous people than we now are. But “free Government,” in the American sense of the word, is a thing that was, and the sooner we can divest ourselves of a contrary opinion the better will it be for all of us. The people are unfit ted for it, they have shown themselves so ; and, hence, must endeavor to suit themselves to the new order of things with the best grace possible. We regret that this is true; we wish it were different; but, unfortunately, our regrets and our wishes, are not the gov erning motives with those Who wield the destinies of (he United States of America at this time. Female Suffrage. Some of the Radical Members of Congress are advocating female suffrage. AVliy should not the dear creatures vote ? The ballot is being given rather promiscuously just now, and we see no reason why ts e women of the land shoqld' not enjoy fbe privilege as well aq any 6ther class. They are as intelligent and capable of judging as many who now have the right to vote. Mills, the Political liconotnist, advo cates their claims in this regard ; and if it wasn’t that we have so little regard for the great privilege of freemen (b reed men ?) we should advocate it also, liut we think, with Miss Evans, that ■woman’s sphere is in another direction. 1 he domestic circle is her kingdom und there she wields a more potent spell, a tnore graceful power, than ever she could uo at the hustings, at around the election precincts, jostled by drunken whites and ignorant blacks. No, if our iustitutions are degraded, and our rights trampled under foot, let us of the South, at least, preserve our mothers, sisters, wives, and daughters, free from the taint of political corruption, Woman's Rights, and all the other isms, which tend to drag woman down from the lofty height which she now so nobly und no gracefully occupies.
