It cannot bo denied that a eery large
number —we might perhaps say a ma
jority—of the more intelligent people of
the North condemn the harsh policy of
the Radicals, and are actuated by senti
ments of liberal consideration for the
South. It is true, that this class is pow
erless to control the present agrarian
whirl ot popular passion aud prejudice,
which finds expression ia the legislation
of Congress, but their aid and sympathy
are valuable, and their judgment, in re
ference to our policy, entitled to consid
eration. It ia a significant fact, that those
conservative journals who were boldest
in tbeir denunciation of the Constitu
tional Amendment,and wkoadviaed the
South to spurn H, are now equally ear
nest in urging us to accept the new
military bill. This is of course calling
out the sharpest criticism lrom the Rad
ical press, who attempt to destroy the
force of their advice by charges of in
consistency. The New York World, in
reply to an article of this kind in the
Commercial Advertiser, says:
While the amendment was pending
as a single, unassociated measure, the
World advised rejection, because, so
long as matters remained in that pos
ture, rejection completely thwarted the
Radicals ; tnd if there be any purpose
in which we shall never flinch or waver,
it ia that of foiling them at all hazards.
-Now, that the situation has changed,
the same tactics will no longer produce
the same result; and being true to the
result, we advise a change of tactics
If inaction would still foil the Radicals,
we should be sos inaction still ; but, as
we estimate the situation, forbearance
now would euable them to Africanize
the Southern States, aud put those
States as a weight into their side of the
balance. Under the Sherman bill, the
negroes will vote anyhow , and as the
South cannot prevent their voting, it is
more desirable to leap into the saddle
aud be the rider, than to be saddled and
ridden as the horse. For the great
body of the South to be inactive now, is
precisely what the Radicals desire, since
it would enable them to control alt
Southern elections, and leorganize the
States in their 6wn party interest.
“Inactivity” now, as we looktyt it, would
be neither “wise” nor "masterly,” hut
suicidal. It would no longer block the
Radical game, but assist it. But if,
on the other hand, the South will
promptly accept the situation, take the
helm of the negro vote, and steer it,
the Radicals will have to paddle their
own canoe without black asssistance.
The South will then return to Congress,
when it does return, with some addi
tional members as a consequence of
emancipation, and all of them faithful
representatives of Southern feeling.
Tne Radicals will thus be “hoist by
their own petard,” increasing the South
ern weight in the national councils
which they meant to fling out and anni
hilate. If the South play this game
with vigor, the Radicals will ot course
squirm, and chicane, and either back
out of their promise ot dishonestly evade
it; but we are quite willing to see their
noses sharpened on their own grind
stone.
The One Issue of the Present.
We copy the following timely aud
well tempered article from the Charles
ton Courier of yesterday:
We hare heretofore expressed the
view that, under the Military Recon
struction Bill, already announced as the
law for oar guidance, and the Supple
mental Bill now pending before Con
gress, ail questions of choice are re
moved from the people of the Sooth.
Under these enactments it is no longer
a matter of debate. However diverse
the opinions of the Sooth may have been
on this subject, if left to a free and
untrammelled expression of sentiment,
the only privilege now left is that of
ea h indiv.doal in determining whether,
at the ensoiog elections, he will cast or
withhold his vote.
It is too patent a fact to be disregard
ed, that inaction can be of no earthly
avail. Upon the Constitutional Amend
ment when submitted, the South had
the option of its choice. Their Legis
lature exercised the judgment permitted
to them against its adoption.
Now, however, the case is widely
different. Congress, in whom, by what
ever tenure, the power of the country is
vested, has declared these States to have
passed out o» the Union, and to have
been brought back, alone by the force at
arms.
Acting upon this theory, they have
passed a law, statiug the above condi
tions upon which these commonwealths
shall be entitled to restoration, and their
citizens to legal protection for their
rights of person, property, aud measura
ble Liberty.
These conditions are to be folfitled
under their direction. The Convention
is to be called ; univesrst aaffrage is to
take place; the delegates are to be
elected; anew Constitution in conform
ity to the provisions declared by Con
gress to be formed. These ere the facts
by which we are surrounded, lhese are
not matters submitted for our judgment.
They form no point of debate, because
they are decreed by those who wield to
all practical purpose the supreme power.
They are in their nature of the inevita
ble, aud it is therefore useless eitlier to
discuss or to differ upon that which is
already ordained.
The question, therefore, is not one of
approval or disapproval, of consent or
rejection, but simply whether thoee who
have been the heretofore voters, and
who are not inhibited by the new bill,
shall cast their ballots for those who
.ill best promote the cause of order,
and lessen the chances of anarchy and
misrule, or whether they shell ramain
passive sod permit the Btate to pass
into the bands of those who have no
appreciation of a well regulated Gov
ernment, or but little regard for the
care of ou industrial pursuits, and the
fostering of those arts of life, by which
alone n material prosperity can be se
cured hr the future. It is a question
neither o» advocacy or rejection, but
simply of common sense.
The Hatmnal bUeUiycncer is one of
the staunchest of those journals which,
when the war was over, pointed out tbs
evident path of peace in the immediate
admission of ths South to its constitu
tional rights and representation in the
Union. This ws then believed, and still
conclude to have been the course of a
true statesmanship and a wise policy in
preserving intact a constitutional Gov
ernment. But those who possess ths
control of events have decided other
wise. And ths only issue that remains
is, what is the wisest and hest course,
in full view of impending events, to
pursue ? And upon this point the
remarks of the Intelligencer are practical
and worthy of consideration. It ia not
a time for excitement or hsste, bat of
the judgment, and that after calm aqd
careful reflection. The following are
the remarks of the lnlellihencer:
“Whatever force there may have been
in the argument that the Sonth could
take no action under the Sherman Shel
larbarger bill witbont voluntary partici
pation in its own degradation, is now
destroyed by the bill which passed the
House of Representatives. That takes
the question of holding a Convention
oat of the realm of popular consent aud
confers it upon the Military Command
ers. He is enjoined to make a registra
tion and order an election. Whatever
may be done, therefore, is done under
military duress, and it is the part of
wise men to accommodate themselves
to circumstances. The registration will
be made. The election will be held.
Tne negroes will vote. Shall the whites
abstain ?
“If inaction accomplished aught, we
might understand why men should ad
vise it; but when the practical effect
of inaction will be to secure the adop
tion of a State Constitution by those who
do act, and an application for admis
sion into the Uniou from men Who hare
voted, while this inaction will put argu
ments in the months of men who have
already too much control of the Govern
ment, we cannot exactly see the wisdom
of~hesitation. Those who abstaiu now
from choice will abstain hereafter from
necessity. No oue appreciates more
fully the inequity ot this kind of legis
lation ; no one realizes more keenly its
inconsistency with Republican princi
ples ; no one more heartily deplores
the stab it gives to Constitutional Gov
ernment ; no one is more alive to the
dangers which beset the new order of
things which it is proposed to inaugu
rate ; nevertheless, we believe iu the
superiority of intellect and of culture ;
and, it they do themselves justice, they
are bouud to control.”
The Destitute of Chattanooga.—
The Mayor of Atlanta called a meeting
to be held on yesterday, to take meas
urea for furnishing relief for the suffer
ers by the lute flood at Chattanooga-
He has information that without speedy
relief, the distress will be appalling—
hundreds of families having lost every
thing.
Cannot something be done in Au
gusta, to relieve those suffering people ?
That whole region was devastated by
the presence of the armies lor two years,
and was beginniug, under a good crop
last year, to recuperate; and now a
great portion of this is swept away. We
understand that distress exists for want
of clothing as well as food. It would
probably be better that the chief con
tributions be in money, as provisions
may be bought a little cheaper in that
vicinity than here—though there is
immediate want of food, as the railroad*
beyoud Chattanooga are interrupted,
and bacon, flour, meal and molasses
will be most acceptable. Clothing,
shoes, and beddiqg of any kind will be
ot especial servico, as the weather wiil
be cold there for some weeks to come.
Let not Augusta, which has escaped iu
a large measure the wreck of the times,
be behind Atlanta in extending relief to I
a sister city in distress.
If the Mayor does not call a meeting, j
let two or three energetic citizeas take '
the matter in hand to-morrow.
Destitctios. —Few of oor more for
tunate citizens realize the amount of
destitution now existing among the
class dependent on their daily labor for
support. Many are nnaole to obtain
employment; especially is this true of
those ladies who have depended upon
needlework for support. Many of these
shrink from applying to the authorities
for aid,and the funds of the City do not
authorize the relief of even pressing
applications. The mite realized by
public exhibitions is a mere "drop in
the backet,” and those who possess a
true spirit of benevolence have a wide
field for usefulness at their very doors.
Will not the ladies, who ever delight in
the gentle offices of charity, and who
were ministering angels at the hospitals
daring the war, take an interest in those
now helpless and destitute around them?
Many of these are the widows, mothers,
or sisters of those for whom no self
denial was too great, but a short time
ago, and in whose behalf no appeals for
aid were unavailing. It will not do to
stifle humane impulses with the plea of
bard times—almosteverycitizen who.haa
regular employment, or a steady income
though perhaps pinched by the timet
wastes every day in some favorite in
dulgence* that which would send com
fort and happiness to a destitute neigh
bor. Let these indulgences be curtailed,
and the amount thus expended be de
voted to benetoieot purposes.
Acriox ix Booth Carolina. —The
SutUh Carolinian learns that Governor
Orr will call the Legislature together at
once, to consider the call of a Conven
tion. We are glad to see South Caro
liua leading off in a movement which
the times seem imperatively to demand.
There is a great anxiety in Georgia to
hear from Governor Jenkins, since his
interview with the President, and to
know what policy he will recommend.

The City Election.
M*. Editor;—Allow me tacall the
special attention of onr citiaens to a com
munication published in the Chronicle
of yesterday morning, over the signature
of *' A Voter." It should be read by
every voter in Augusta. The proposi
tion made is the only fair one that baa
yet been suggested, viz. that all citizens
who feel interested In our manicipel
affairs, meet at the City Hall ou Satur
day evening, the 23d, at 8 o'clock, and
each person vote by ballot—the person
receiving tha highest vote to be de
clared the people's candidate for Mayor*
and the candidates for Couhcft to be
selected by Ward meeting*.
The time bas arrived when every man
should vote, even in the expression of *
choice, if possible. I therefore earnestly
beg that our oitisena will come oat, and
if they do not, that they acquiese in, and
support the candidate thus nominated.
This ia fair—thia ia right—let na unite
and have no wrangling among our
selves. A Citizen.

Reparator Capilli.
Throw away year false frisses, yoar switches,
your wig—
Destructive of comfort, and not worth a fig:
Come aged, come youthful, eume ugly and
fair,
And rejoice in your own luxuriant hair.
REPARATOR CAPILLI,
For restoring hair upon bald heads (from
whatever cause it may have fallen oat) and
forcing a growth of hair upon the face, it
hes no equal- It will force the beard to
grow upon the smoothest face in from five
to eight weeks, or hair upon bald heads in
from two to three months. A few ignoran
practitioners have asserted that there is
nothing that will force or hasten the growth
of the hair or beard. Their assertions are
false, as thousands of living witnesses (from
tbeir own experience), can bear witness.
But many will say, how are we to distin
guish the genuine from the spnrious ? It
certainly is difficult, as nine-tenths of the
different preparations advertised for tLe
hsir and beard are entirely worthless, and
you may have already thrown away large
amounts in their purchase. To such we
wou'd say, try the Reparator Capilli; it
will cott you nothing unless it fully comes
up to our representations. If your Druggist
does not keep it, send us one dollar and we
will forward it, post paid, together with a
receipt for the monev, which will be re
turned you on application, provid ng ent re

MANIPULATED GUANO!
This article is being prepared by us at our place of business
ia this City, where wc invite Planters and others interested t> emli and examine onr
stock, and witness the preparation of the above named M INURE- It is composed
entirely of pure and unadulterated GUAM'S :of which 25 per cent of the whole mixture
is warranted to he pure No. ] Peruvian Guano), and we warrant each and every paekage
of it to contain the exact ingredients and same proportions as the sample analysed by
Prof. Shepard, whose analysis and report wc annex, as follows:
CaaRLKSTox, & C- February I6tb. 1367.
V.wfr HY/ov, Uihh* J Cos. .-
Gextlkxex : The following is my analysis and report epon the sample yon have
placed in my hands, of Wilcox, Gibbs A Co.’s Manipulated Guano :
nygrometric water 15.60
Combined water and organic matter rich in ammoniaea! sails 18.90
Phosphate of iime 44.50
C rhonate of lime...™ ...... I.SO
Insoluble silieious matter, with considerable traces of per oxide of iron-™ 15.39
Chloride of sodium, sulphates of ammonia, iime, ands da, with loss 1 .30
199.60
The present sample shows a eery advantageous mixture. It bas ceongh es Peruvian
Gnaeo (say 25 per eect.) for any soil or crop : while the great balk of the preparatioa
is obviously an soadtderated natural Guano, rick in organic matter, with cot --,-ierable
already formed Ammcaia land the material for its continued production as required by
the crop), together wrh 44.50 per cent, of Phosphate of Lise, nearly two per cent, of
which is in a soluble state. If kept up to the standard of this sample, there is no batard ia
predicting that lands treated with 250 or 309 poaads of it to the acre, will be placed in
an effective condition for ase crop.
Very respectfully, yours, CHARLES UPHAM SHEPARD.
Knowing the composition, as well as judging from the analysis and report of Prof.
Shepard, we are confident it will prove to be an exeei eat MANURE, and pay aey
Planter handsomely who uses it judiciously. We wonid recommend the use of 175 to 106
pounds per acre for Cotton or Corn ; 256 to 300 pounds for Wheat, and that it be applied
’.he same as other Unanos—under the bed for Cotton, ia the hill for Cora, and broadcast
tor Wheat. Tbit Gnano is ready for use, all the lumps haring been thoroughly ground,
and the whole passed through a reive before packing, and it is a very handsome article
in appearance and condition. It is packed in barrels of about 300 pounds, and hags of
209 pounds, and the price will be uniform, as fellow* : $65 per Ton es 3,900 pounds.
Cash.
Our Agent* will fell at tbc ?*me price, with necewary expenses added.
We are now prepared to deliTer ibis Guano in quantities to nit, and solicit order?
