THE DAILY PRESS IS ALSO THE OFFICIAL PAPER OF THE CITY OF AUGUSTA. HAVING BEEN ELECTED BY THK CITY COUNCIL AS THEIR OFFICIAL ORGAN. THJ UJFORTTJNATES- General ROBERT E. LEE, General JOSEPH E. JOHNSTON General G. T. V. BEAUREGARD, I.t. Grn. JAMES LONGS! REET, Lt. Gen. WADE HAMPTON, I,t. Gen. DICK TAYLOR. Maj. Gen. WM. MAHONE, Maj. Gen. ETHEL BARKSDALE, Maj. Gen. CHALMERS. It is of men like these that the Con stitutionalist say* : “ Their genius for soleiwj vexed ques tions of State is not in the highest condi tion of intellectual health or ingenuity." Because they presume to recommend to the people a prompt and hearty cooperation in reestablishing the politi cal position of the States upon the basis or the laws of congress, they are thus taunted with imbecility. Endorsement and Congratulation- A favorite mcansof bringing reproach upon those who favor reconstruction under the plan presented by Congress, is to represent them as eager to endorse the principles embraced in those mea sures. The Constitutionalist, referring to the speech of Gen. Wade UamptoD, says: “ He proposes, as we understand, to submit to and make the best of an in evitable fate, but he nowhere urges endorsement and congratulation.” We have looked in vain among the utterances of all the representative men of the South, who have urged the people to accept the Congressional inode of reconstruction, for any senti ment of “ endorsement” or “ congratula. tion.” We are not called on to endorse them, or to congratulate anybody on the opportunity to do so. We are simply in a position where we may choose be tween the acceptance of the measure, and participate iu the mode of recon struction, or see it accepted by others. And here is the real difference between those who favor the non-action, do nothing policy, and those who propose to accept events and endeavor to con trol them; between those, who, with Gov. Brown, Longstreet and others, propose to put their shoulders to the wheel, and those who stand, cursing, knee-deep in the mud, aud call on the gods. One proposes to accept the measure as a final means ot restoring quiet to . the country ; the other proposes to wait for the intervention of the courts; or let the organization go into the hands of bogus loyalists, and remain uncommit ted and ready to take advantage of any future measure of relief Irom the ope rations of the hill. This is the differ ence, as we understand it, between the two greit elements of public opinion at the South. The *umber of those who endorse the Military Bill, or congratulate any body on its adoption, is confined to those who have not heretofore been citizens ; and we respectfully submit that it is an unfair and disingenuous mode of influencing public opinion, to place those who favor action’, in a false position, and thus attempt to array prejudice against them. The Eesult of Non-Action. The Constitutionalist expresses great die gust at the character of certain reso lutions, adopted at primary meetings in Upper Georgia, and puts them forward as the representative sentiment of those who oppose the non-action policy. The editor asks: “ Does any sane man be lieve that the distinguished Generals of the South subscribe to such cowardly and beastly resolutions ? Are they will ing to have their names hoisted as ban ners around this platform ?” Neither the distinguished Generals of the South, or those who, with them, are in favor of accepting the terms of the con qeuror, are responsible for the offensive utterances of any who may approve the reconstruction bills. It was to prevent the control of primary meet ings from falling, by default, into such hands that we urged the representative wen of ths country to move forward, and give manly shape to Southern ac tion. These offensive loyalists were utterly powerless in every community, and would have remained so, if all who feel "that the time has come for an end of strife, had come up to the great responsibility of the hour and acted promptly. Therefore, those who denounced such action, and branded every man who favored action as seeking pardon, or negro votes, or public print ing, ure responsible for the “ beastly resolutions” which are so offensive, and will be held responsible, if the authors of such resolutions control the destiny of the State. PWfM* Th« pitiful attempt of mtUln journals to identity tboM who ur*u the active aequlesence »f our people in the mode of reconstructs adopted by Congress with those nomadic soldiers of fortune, known as Southern Radicals, is a device so weak and pitiful, as to be beneath contempt. Those who believe the time has come to put an end to agitation, atrife, and suspense, are the truest friends to the South—they are those who have been true to her honor and her traditions—who have followed her blood stained banner in triumph as well as in defeat—men, whose fealty to the South has been illustrated in a life long devotion, and whose names will live in Southern history, when those of these wordy patriots have evaporated with their frothy utterances into oblivion. Sound Advice. The “ Joint Committee on Federal Relations” in the Louisiana Legislature, recently made the following report, which we commend to the attentive consideration of all our readers. It embraces a line of policy in which, it seems to us, all can unite, and is in perfect keeping with the views presented in our columns. We nre pleased to observe that the Columbus .Sunendorses the report as embodying “ the best, safest, and soundest advice which has emanated from any source, public or private, since the establishment of mili tary ruleand the Atlanta Intelligencer adopts the report as the policy it will advocate, os the only one now left for the Southern States to pursue. We arc pleased at this resolution Os our able cotemporaries to abandon the wait-and see policy, and have no doubt it will be speedily followed by the press gene rally. Any other course must be regarded as captious and damaging to the interests of the country : The report snys: The recent action of Congress in the passage of the measure commonly known as the “ Military Reconstruction Bill” and the “Supplemental Bill,” pre cipitates upon the people the conside ration of the most momentous ques tions, affecting not merely their present and future welfare, but involving the very political existence of the State. *• It seems evident that active steps will.be at once taken for the reorgan izing of our State government in accord ance with the principles of these mea sures, and that general elections will be speedily held for that purpose. “ In this emergency it becomes abso lutely necessary for the people to deter mine forthwith what line of conduct is most proper for them to pursue. “ Your Representatives in the General Assembly have not failed to give to this question the most anxious and earnest deliberation. “ The subject matter is placed beyond the pale of our legislative system, by a power, over which we have no control; but we feel it our duty to give to our constituents the results of our sober and serious reflection, and to advise them as to the course we think they should adopt under the circumstances. “ Whatever may be our opinions of the justice, magnanimity, or Constitu tionality of these Congressional meas ures, they are imposed upon us by an authority which we have clearly no power to resist; and we, therefore, sol emnly believe it becomes our duty, not only to abstain from fruitless and fac tious opposition, but to exert all our power and influence so to direct events as that the least harm may come to the State from their execution. '• We, therefore, exhort the people to organize thoroughly and take an active part in all elections, under whatever authority they may be held. Avoid all semblance of opposition to the free and fair suffrage ot every man having the right to vote under the authority of Con gress. “ Let there be no collisions or conflicts of any kind. “ Avoid diseusSkms among your selves. “ Bring forward as candidates citizens in whose wisdom, discretion, and cour age you can place implicit confidence, and whose qualifications can conform, a3 far as practicable, to the require ments of Congress. Suppress, as lar as possible, the consideration of all ques tions which may lead to the division of opinion among you. “ Look to the character of the men whom you elect. “ Do not seek to "bind them in ad vance by nny particular course of poli cy, the wisdom and propriety of which must at last be determined by the ‘ logic of events; but leave them free and untrameled to act as their judg l meats may dictate, for the interest and honor of the State. “ Let moderation and temperance guide you in counsel and conduct. Re strain and control the ebulitions of inconsiderate, rash, and turbulent men, who may precipitate collisions from which nothing but injnry to the State and people can possibly result. “Use all fair and legitimate means within your power so to iufluduce and direct the suffrage as to elect trust worthy men to office, and thereby to prevent the power of the State from tailing into unworthy hands; but at the same time be sure that your choice shall be respected, and that the men so chosen shall be clothed with authority which none can question. “in lollowing out the course of action here indicated you will be called on to exercise a spirit of extreme tolerance and forbearance ; but we believe it to be the only course consistent with our present condition and the satiety of the State, and you will not hesitate at any sacrifice necessary to that end. “In conclusion, we would say that we place an abiding confidence in the people, and believe that by the exercise of wisdom, prudence, and patriotism, they will so conduct the State through the ordeal as to command the respect ol' friends and foes.” —During the recent session of the Equal Rights Convention, a strong minded female entered a crowded street railroad ear. An old gent rose to give her a seat, but asked, “ Be you one of those women rigbters “ I he.” “ You believe a woman should have nil the rights of a man ?” “ Yes, I do.” “ Then stand up and enjoy them lilto a man.” And stand up she did. —An officer of the Shenandoah, who has published a narrative of her various cruises, charges that Captain Waddell, the commander, cheated both officers and crew out of several thousand pounds sterling, which had been paid over to him at Liverpool, and distributed among them as their share of the prize money.

Companies, with large cap ital are opening mines. Crop prospects in Upper Georgia are* very cheering. The wheal crop is especially promising. Lucius Q. Johnson, a son of Ex»Gov. Janies Johnson, died in Savannah last week. He is described as a young man of rare promise. There is fearful destitution in Spaul ding county. Four children died of starvation in one family, near Dalton, during the month of February. * The Savannah Republican publishes a list of twenty four estates on the sea islands below that city, which have been restored to their owners.
