Electiox of Officers. —At the regular
Monthly Meeting of Fire Company,
Citizen No. 8, March 4th, for the elec
tion of officers tor the ensuing year,
Capt. Bryson beiug in the Chair, Mr.
Graham moved that the Captain retire
from the hall for a few moments, which
unexpected request being complied with,
arrangements were immediately made
to present Capt. B. a fine silver pitcher
and goblets, obtained by the company
for the purpose, as a mark of their
esteem and appreciation of his services
and zeal in behalf of the interest he has
taken to give efficiency and usefulness
to the compaoy. The sentiments which
prompted the company to tender this
testimonial, were happily expressed in
the remarks of Secretary P. F. Dunne,
who made the presentation in behalf of
the company. After the little nervous
excitement, created by the surpi ise, had
subsided, the Captain received the
present in a few remarks, expressing
the deep feelings of gratitude he felt for
so handsome and agreeable a gift, pio
ceeding from motives so encouraging
and ennobling, as conveyed by the
speaker on presenting the testimonial.
The following officers were then
elected for the ensuing year :
Captain —W. Bryson.
First Lieutenant —M. G. Dunne.
Second Lieutenant —Wm. Lindsey.

The Weather. —Most of our ex- 1

into Pattering notices of the weather,
ihe genial skies and bursting buds—
the confiding beauty of the jonquils,
aud the sweet odors of a few indiscreet

the sailing, on the 28th, of the steamer
Memphis, from New York, with 60,000
bushels of corn, to be divided equally
between the ports of Charleston, Sa
vannah, and Mobile. This corn is sent
by the Southern Relief Commission ol
New York, for the destitute, and before
the close of another week the Com
mission hope to be able to ship by
another national vessel a yet larger
quantity.
South Carolina. —The commence,
ment of the Charleston Medical Col
lege took place last Saturday. At the
examination, Prof. Julian J. Chisolm,
the Dean of the Faculty, reported a
class of eighty five students, and took
occasion, in a felicitous address, to
to extol their general deportment and
professional attainments. The degree of
Doctor of Medicine was conferred on
thirty one students, and a license to
practice was granted to one, and a
license on Pharmacy to ten others. The
prize presented by the Faculty for the
best written examination was awarded
to Dr. John B. Elliott, of Savannah.

Southern Flour.—A writer in a
New Orleans paper states, that Louisi
ana and Texas flour are superior to that
produced in Tennessee, Virginia or the
West, owing to its superior dryness, and
the fact that it contaius more gluten,
and does not so easily foment. He also
says that a barrel of this flour will make
twenty pounds more bread than western
flour, because, being droer it absorbs
more water. The climate of Louisiana
and Texas matures the crop from five
to six weeks earlier than the crop of the
West, thus with its superior quality, will,
it is believed, soon work a revolution in
the flour trade and give the Southwestern
States almost a monopoly of the busi
ness.
Rf.vf.nue. —The whole amount of
internal revenue collected daring the
fiscal year 1866 was $310,906,984. Os
this sum, $170,875,249 was collected in
the Eastern States, $119,440,889 in the
Western States, including Kentucky
and Tennessee, and $20,599,749 in the
excluded States.
Tlie Impeachment. —The Washington
Leader says that it is rumored that the
Judiciary Committee have struck a mine
on the impeachment question, which is
already causing quite a flutter in high
places. Important developments are
said to have been made in a foreign
country.
Distress is North Alabama. —lt
is stated in an exchange that on the 9th
of February, a public meeting was called
at Centre, Alabama, to discuss the ways
and means of providing relief. The
county has a population of about 17,000
citizens of whom 3,000 whites au-1 2,500
blacks were reported without provisions,
aad nine tenths of the population able
to work are scantily provided, and with
out means to purchase supplies to plant
or put in crops the present spring. It
was concluded by the meeting to make
an appeal to the more fortunate people
of the States further North, and the Hon.
L. J. Stansiler, Judge of the Probate
Court, and Colonel John B. Walden,
two of the oldest aud most influential of
the citizens of the county, were selected
to proceed North and solicit aid.
To bk Tested. —lt is stated that the
President has already caused the United
States District Attorney to he notified
of his desiro to have the Civil Rights
bill brought to adjudication in that
Court, and he is resolved to have other
enactments tested in the same way.
EoaSTRAORDINARY. —We have just
discovered the cause of the decline in
eggs. A duty of one cent per dozen
has been imposed on Canadian eggs by
the new tariff, and the loyal biddies of
Tennessee are showing their gratitude
by “shelling out” Jibe rally. It is said
that some of them are actually laying

tariff 1
New Orleans and Texas Railroad.
—The County Court of Harris county,

says, the amount of gas consumed for
eight days was reduced from 1,025 feet
per day to 437 feet per day. Couldn't
the Dispatch send the multiplier man
l along this way 7
Emigration.—Emigration from der
many to the United States, according
to letters written from Berlin and Mu
nich, will become a “complete torrent"
ns the spring advances. The troubles
aud disappointments in Germany fot
fowing the war of last year, add greatly
to the tide that is setting towards
America. If our last Legislature bad
acted wisely, arriugements might by
this time have been perfected for adding
thousands of these thrifty Teutons to
our population.
A Good Joke. —The Mexican Lega
lion in Washington a short time ago,
warned the public against certain Mexi
can bonds offered by Mr. Daniel Wood
house, President of a Laud Company;
alleging that the bonds were spurious.
Mr. Woodhouse has laid before Congress
an elaborate refutation of the charge,
showing that the bonds were issued by
tbe authority of the Republic of Mexico.
Mr. Woodhouse charges Minister Romero
with attempting to injure the credit of
the bonds for his own advantage. It
requires a microscopic lens of great
power to see much “ advantage" in
Mexican bonds of any sort just now.
A Washington paper says several
ladies of that city are vigorously en
gaged -making up clothes of baby

witness, before its close, a financial
crash in this country such as the world
has never before heard of.

Row in the Nebraska Legislature,
—A singular disturbance occurred in
the Nebraska Legislature on the 17th
ult. The Speaker, Chapin decided
aversely to b point of order, and at: ap
peal was taken, on which the vote was
16 to 17 —and the Speaker decided that
the appeal was not sustained ; where"
upon he was denounced as stopping the
work of legislation, and, on motion, Dr.
Abbott was chosen Speaker pro tern.
Great confusion prevailed. Chapin
drew .a pistol and threatened to blow
out tbe brains of the Sergeant at Arms.
He was soon “taken out," and Dr. Ab
bott took the Chair and business pro
ceeded.
The Two Champions. — Tbe Louis
ville Journal says that Thad Stevens
will have a formidable rival forthecham
pionsbip of the House in Beast Butler.
He says:
Thad has some advantages and Ben
others. And we don’t care which suc
ceeds. We don’t know that the right
cause has anything to gain from the
triumph of either, or the wrong cause
anything to lose. Our best hope ia that
the two will destroy each other, and that
their respective friends will do the same.
The greatest difference that we know of
between them is that one has a club foot
ana the other a cock eye.
In respect to bravery, the two com
pare very well. One was the hero of
Big Bethel, Wilmington, Dutch Gap,
etc., etc., etc., in the late war, and the
other the hero of a leap from a window
in the Pennsylvania ‘‘buck shot war.”
Decide between them, oh ye Congres

“Me youngest is dead, yer honor; but

THE ATLANTA MEETING.
Preamble an< Hciolatlom.
Atlanta, Ga., March 5, 1867.
A large and raapeotabla meeting was bald
lo thia city, last Right, at which, tbe follow
ing Preamble and Resolutions were adopted:
Wbkrbas, by the mysterious working! of
Providenoe, our oounlfy baa boon brought
into iu present unhappy and distressed
condition, by moans and instrumentalities
which it ia uunoeessary to enumerate at
tbia time, in wbiob condition the people of
Georgia, in consequence of unsuccessful
warfare againit the Government of th e
United States, stand in relation to that
Government, of participants in unsuccassful
rebellion, and at a oonrequence, in the
relation of conquered to conqueror; and,
Wheraas, it baa bscomo a well established
and fundamental prinoiple of the Govern
ment of the United States, sustained over
whelmingly by tbe people of the same, that
by waging against Government the mighty
conflict which has sacrificed so many lives
and so much treasure, tbe poople of the
insurrectionary States deprived themselves
of legal governments, and oan be legally
reinvested with State Governments alone
by the law making power of the United
States; and, Whereas, it has become an
equally well settled principle with the
American people, that all men shall stand
in the same relation to the Government,
and enjoy equal rights ami privileges under
it, Irrespective of the placo or circumstances
of birth, color, or raeo, or former condition*
and, Whereas, it is also decreed that thos*
who participated in the recent rebellion,
after having taken an oath and held certain
specified offices, previous to engaging in
said rebellion, to support the Constitution of
tbe United States shall never again hold
office under that Government until Congress
shall have removed their disability; and,
Wheroas, no one is rendered, by the present
legislation of Congress, ineligible to office,
or deprived of the elective franchise, no
matter how prominent or efficient he may
have been in the recent rebellion, if he bad
not held oertain offices previous to the war,
and had not takan an oath of office to sup
port the Constitution of the United States;
and, Whereas, the number of persons in
each county, in the Southern States, who
are made ineliigible to office by virtue of
said legislation, bears but a small propor
tion to the number who, though they were
engaged in tbe rebellion, aro nevertheless
permitted to oont’Due in the enjoyment of
every political and civil rieht, therefore,
Resolved, 1. That in the opinion of this
meeting, the dearest and most vital interests
of each and every citizen of Georgia requires
that restoration be no longer unnecessarily
postponed.
lit solved, 2. That indiscretion has already
delayed the work of restoration, until the
interests ot the entire poople of Georgia are
bleeding at every pore, and that all passion
and prejudice should be forthwith cast aside
and reason once more permitted to ascend
the throne, or wo will yet lose rights and
interests which we now enjoy.
Jiesolved, 3. That it is tbe sense of this
meeting that the people of Georgia should
promptly, and without the least hesitation,
accept the plan of restoration recently pro
posed by Congress.
Resolved, 4. That in the opinion of tbit
meeting, there are persons in each and every
county within this'State, sufficient in num
bers, and of sufficient integrity and ability,
who are not debarred from voting and
holding office by the provisions of this la**',“
to perform all tbe functions of GovtCS™6lll
- 5. That we earnestly hopo that
as soon as practicable, all those who have
the right to do so, will, in good faith, enter
upon tbe duty of instituting for Georgia a
legal State Government.
Resolved, 6. That we, citizens of Fulton
county, do hereby proclaim to onr fellow
citizens throughout the entire Union, a
sincere purpose on our part to heal the
wounds inflicted by the unhappy past, and
wo tako this method of extending to our
fellow-citizens of every State a cordial and
hoarty invitation to come and settle in our
ra-dst, assuring them, in the namo of every
thing that is sacred, that they shall be re
ceived aud treated as friends, and us citi
zens of a common country.
Resolved, 7. That a copy of the proceed
ings of this meetiug be forwarded to the
Chairman of the Reconstruction Committee
ia Congress, and to Gov. .Tonkins, with tho
request (hat he convene the Legislature with
aviow to the calling of a convention of tho
