We would hare been gratified if we of the Sooth could have ignored politics altogether; but that was, and is, au im possibility. We could not, and cannot avoid taking au interest in political affairs which concern us so closely as do those of the United States. Our fate is in the hands of the ..Northern people ; and whatever they do in regard to the South or to the Union, must effect that fate for good or for evil. Hence, while our people very wisely ab stained from all interference or ac tive participation in political nffairs, they could not shut their eyes to events that were transpiring around them ; and neither could the Press of the South observe silence on the subject. It is its duty to keep the people posted in regard to everything that concerns them, and in the performance of this duty, it be came necessary not only to state what was going on, but to endeavor, by calm and considerate argument, to endeavor to soften the aspirations of the hour, and turn aside the wrath of our enemies. This duty, the press of the South, with but few exceptions, has fully and fear lessly performed ; and because it has failed to accomplish anything of good, it does not necessarily follow that it has erred. Now, however, a change has taken place; and we can no longer do good in the discussion of politics. A fate more severe than that of Ireland, or Poland, or Hungary, seems to await us; and we can only fold our arms in par tial resignation, awaiting that time when a just Providence will lead us out of the lund of bondage to peace and security. Avoiding everything that can exaspe rate our rulers, yielding a prompt obe dience to military orders and regula tions, and devoting ourselves as far as possible to the development of our re sources, we may lessen to some extent the weight of the burthen which has been imposed upoa us. For we must remember that it is not alone men who have to suffer, but innocent women and children ; and, for their sakes, we must make our condition as easy as possible. Perhaps something may soon arise to relieve us of the burthen, and restore the Union, as it was, and as it ought to lie. Let us be prudent, patient and hopeful. Business. It is highly probable that, in the pres ent unsettled state of the country, busi ness in the South will be greatly depress ed ; and yet at the North, the passage of the Sherman Stevens Sheliabarger Bill does not seem to have such an effect. Gold has not changed, and trade seems to move smoothly along in its accustomed chaunels. If this condition continues, and our military governors are men of sound discretion and good judgment, much may be done to restore confi dence, and keep our business affairs in a prosperous condition. Iti furtherance of this object, however, there ought to be more facilities in our Southern com munities for the advancement of mer cantile and other interests. We have, heretofore, suggested an increase ol banking capital; and we still hold to the opinion that if the proper steps were taken, that increase could be secured. The suggestion has been made for Charleston ; and we are satisfied that it is cqnally applicable to Augusta. But if this should be impracticable, our merchants might advance small amounts to surrounding planters to enable them to secure labor and imple ments for the working of crops for the approaching season. If they will not do it, other communities will, and much trade will thus be lost to our City. Another suggestion has been made, that our friends at the North organize associations, and loan money to South ern agricultural, mechanical, and mining interests. This is a good sug gestion, too, and we commend it to the Northern people. Thb Shok Tbade.—The Boston Trav eller, of Friday, says : The boot nnd shoe trade continues dull, and is likely to continue so. There are a few customers in town, but they arc purchasing quite sparingly. Thu prices have declined, and many of the recent sales have been at less than cost to the manufacturers, but they could probably be replaced at the prices ob tained, as there has been a decline in the price of stock. The supply of hoots aud shoes on Rand is smaller than usuul at this season, nnd the prospects for the spring trade me so poor that manu facturers are doing but little. Large numbers of workmen tire idle, and some of them have been lor two or three mouths. There is not much positive suffering ns yet, but many t<mi!ies have much solicitude for the future. _ Jerry Hamilton, a desperate negro in Atlanta, who has eluded numerous efforts to capture him, whs killed on Thursday by the police while endeavor ing to escape from a house in which he was discovered. _ The small pox has made its appear ance among the freedmeu in Mudison.

Augusta, Gh, Feb. 23, 1867. Jfesrrs. H<nry W. llilliard, E. Starnes, and Other*: Gentlemen Your note, requesting me to deliver a lecture, in your City, at such time, and on such theme as I may select, has been received. I would name Tuesday evening, March 6. The sub ject will, in due time be announced. I am, your obedient servant, J. O. A. Clahk. A Tuneful Youth. In a neighboring city there dwells a “young fellow” who, says a lively jour nal published at that place, has been “ enjoying the magnificent sleighing." The “jingling bells,” the “ tempestuous whirl” of the ride, the “ drooping lash es,” the clustering curls” and ‘‘amorous flashes” have so wrought on tho young gent's brain, that he sings as one whose eyes had enjoyed a “ vision beatific,” and whose soul had been drowned in a rapture beyond the “ bliss of dreams.” Listen to his strain : “ Os all the joys vouchsafed to man In life’s tempestuous whirl, There’s naught approaches Heaven so near As sleighing with a girl. A rosy, laughing, buxom girl; A frank, good-natnred, honest girl; A feeling, flirting, dashing, doting, Smiling, smacking, jolly, joking, Jaunty, jovial, poser-poking, Dear little darling, with a red hat and white feather, who snuggles right up against yonr waistcoat and lets you assist her in holding her muff, Who laughs at you a mouth of power— A dear little duck of a girl. Pile up your wealth as mountain high, You sneering scoffiug churl, I’ll laugh as I go dashing past, With my jingling bolls and girl. The brightest, dearest, sweetest girl; The trimmest, gayest, neatest girl; The funniest, fiusbest, frankest, fairest, Roundest, ripeist, roguesbist, rarest, Spookiest, spiciest, squirmiest, squarest, Host of girls, with drooping lashes, Half concealing amorous flashes, Just the girl for a chap like mo To court, and love, and marry, yon see— With rosy check at and clustering curls, The sweetest and the best of girls.” Has it pretty bad, hasn’t he? To the Citizens of Augusta. A number of gentlemen ot this City, coming together on a recent occasion as managers of festivities, the object of which was simply the enjoyment of those engaged in them, have bethought them selves of forming an organization more lasting and with broader purposes than those they at first contemplated. Tr» those gentlemen, originally cor > post* • the organization, others have themselves, and ladies have gir 1 1 invaluable assistance. The n .- ■ sumed by the asaoemtton in nll r.- and as hoping rather than promt do some good, is the “Benevoh-n jl®j( ety of Augusta.” Its purpose: e other than those its name ind : members desire to do somelhi viate the sufferingaud tosupply of the unfortunate and indigent generally in our midst, and also to devote por tions of the funds they hope to raise to particular objects of benefaction. In selecting the means hy which to raise funds, they have considered that auster ity wa3 not a necessary ingredient of good works, and that offerings would be none the less valuable to their recipients for procuring at the same time a degree ot innocent enjoyment to the donors. They determined, therefore, to give a scries of entertainments, the prime object of which would be to raise funds for charitable purposes, but which, at the same time would make return to some extent to contributors for their generosity. The scheme at present en gaging the efforts of the society, us the means of raising funds, is the giving of a dramatic entertainment, tableaux and a concert, and procuring the services of two or more attractive lecturers. The order in which these entertainments are to be given is not meant lo be indicated by the order in which they are here named. Notice will be given of each, and of tiie purposes to which the proceeds of each are to be applied. The society begs the support and en couragement of the charitable in its general purposes, and in the particular means it has chosen for their further ance. All it can do will be, in compar ison with the wide spread evil, at best but little. Executive Committee of It Auousta Benevolent Society. “Griffith Gaunt—Views of Lan guage- George D. Prentice, Esq., of the Lou isville, |Ky..) Journal, thus takes issue with Chas. Reade, Esq., author of Grit fith Gaunt, on the signification of -the word “plagiarism.” We are inclined to think that George has rather the better of Charles on this point. Hear him : Mr. Charles Reade, having lately pro posed to the world anew name for an an old thing, now proposes anew thing for old name. Replying in a public letter to the charge of plagiarism, Mr. Reade says: “‘Let me add that to plagiarize is to borrow from a homogeneous, not from a heterogeneous source.” We are constrained to say that this will never do. To plagiarize, Mr. Reade, is not to borrow from any source, but to steal. “Convey, the wise it call,” which is quite ns good as “borrow”; but “the wise,” whether headed hy Pistol or Reade, are not the arbiters of language. To pla giarize is not to “convey” or to “borrow” but to steal. So it is writien. As to Mr. Reude’s distinction be tween conveying or borrowing from a homogeneous and heterogeneous source, we need only say that theft depends not on the character of the owner of the property taken, but on the motive of the taker. If, for example, a novelist takes any portion of the writings ol a poet or historian or philos opher, with the iutentiou of depriving the author of the credit which belongs to him, the novelist plagiarizes just as much as he would plagiarize if be in like manner should take auy portion of the writings of another novelist. Tho heterogeneonsness of the source does not change the feloniousness of the appropriation. Mr. lteude might as well say thu( to steal is to appropriate what belongs to one of your own pro fession,, not what belongs to one of another. A novelist may plagiarize from a poet or historian as well as a hatter may aleal from a shoemaker or a tailor. Mr Reade, without knowing it, has beeu writing pare nonsense. The author of ‘‘Griffith Gaunt” is belief at Wining alliterative phrases than at defining established words. Calling demure rakes prurient prude* was very well ; but denning plagiarism as ■borrowing from a homogeneous source will never do in she world. Let the phrase-monger stick to his jingle. GEORGIA ITEMS. E. 11. Musgrove, for many years Clerk of the Superior Court of Musco gee couuty, died on Friday last. A man named Michael Casey, a tailor, committed suicide in Savannah on Thursday hy taking laudanum. The Louisville, Kv., Democrat notices the receipt of pig iron from near Tren ton, Ga. which is said to be of excellent quality. Mr. J. H. Washington, son of J. H. R. Washington, Esq., lute incumbent, has been appointed Postmaster at Macon. The City Council of Rome has ap propriated fifty dollars for the purpose of transplanting shade trees in the now desolate cemetery. Washington Dawson, who was tried Tuesday by the United States District Court, at Savannah, for robbing the mail at Columbus, was found not guilty. A negro who has twice broke jail from Greene county, was shipped from Rome, by the Sheriff of Chattooga county, recently, through the Southern Express. A great institution is the So. Ex. It is stated, authentically, that Ex- Governor James Johnson has at last been confirmed as Collector of the Port of Savannah, by the Senate, and that he has withdrawn the resignation he recently tendered. The store of Mr. Oldham, in Madi son, was entered a few nights ago by a freedinan, and a number of articles abstracted. Arnotig his plunder was a pistol, of which he was so proud that lie showed it among those who recog nized it, and he was arrested. It is stated that five hundred sacks of corn and twenty casks of bacon, dona tions from the charitable people of St. Louis to the suffering poor of Georgia, reached Nashville last week. The Lagrange Reporter announces the death of Muj. John E. Morgan, who for many years has been widely known as a merchant and bank agent in that city. He was a man of most elevated character, and a public spirited and valuable citizen. What High Culture Will Do.— The South Carolinian relates an in stance in which the wife of one of the Chancellors in Marlboro’ district set apart a quarter of an acre of the veget able garden to Cotton, and cultivated it with the house domestics. She made, in spite ol the unfavorable season, nine hundred and eighteen pounds ot Cotton, or an average of nearly three bales to the acre. What better illustration could be offered that the true policy of our pl*> ters is to make up for the scarcity 10, labor by high culture. A proper application of artificial manures will make our thin and impoverished lands ill.to a garden in jiroducl^veness. S ; ecial Notices.
