ETHEL BARKSDALE, It is of men like these that the Con ttibUioneditt says : “ Their gesms for solving vexed ques tions oj State it mot iu the highest condi tion of inieUectuai health or ingenuity." Because the* presume to recommend to tha people a prompt and hearty cooperation in reestablishing the politi cal position of the States upon the basis or tue laws or cosGßsss, they are thus taunted with imbecility. Convention or Ho Convention. There are evidently many in Georgia, who entertain the views recently ex pressed by cx-Gov. Perry, in his two published letters, aud prefer to live under a military government, to the acceptance of the Military Bill. The Charleston News, in reviewing one of the letters of Got. Perry, pertinently asks it recent events have not proved that the purpose of the military govern ments is to carry out the Reconstruction Act? What does the correspondence between General Pope and Governor Jenkins—what does the notice given by General Schofield to the Richmond tv- ~ —r !Hn hut this? The Recon ‘ is to be enforced, and the the Union nuder the '* i end no inter «o provided Hp the*> were beaten ; and common sense, and an experience by no means common, ought to have taught us that if we again fight Congress against the terms which have been prescribed, we will be beaten again. What, then, practically is to be gain, ed by growling, criticising, or protesting against the Military bill. As well at tempt to cog the wheels of destiny—for the power of the Government is enlisted in the reconstruction of the Union in its own way, and not in the way we, the President, or Gov. Perry desire. Confiscation. A dispatch of yesterday from Wash ington says: “ Leading Bepobliesns are telegraphing here from different sections of the Worth their repudiation of Thud. Stevens’ eonfis cation doctrine." We do not see why “ leading Repub licans ” should put themselves to that trouble. Able and eminent as Mr. Ste vens is, his Confiscation speech awoke no single echo in Congress. And his recent letter serves only to render more palpable the truth Henry Wilson, in his speeches at the South, utters the senti ments of at least nine-tenths of the Republican party. In a single contingency only, do Mr. Stevens' peculiar views threaten to as sume importance. Should the Deuio cratic minority in the present Congress serve his ends as thoroughly as they did in the last, he may be able some what to impede the admission of mem bers from the States soon to be recou structed. Thus the conditions of resto ration were rendered far more onerous to the ex-rebels than a majority of the Republicans desired and prescrioed. We have a strong hope that this “ little game ” of the two extremes will not he repeated —Tribune. There is no reason to doubt that If the excluded .States promptly comply with the terms of the reconstruction bill, and send loyal representatives to Congress, there will be no further dan ger of confiscation. But should the non-actionists and no oouventionists defeat reorganization, there is no »e curity in the future. Reconstruction in Campbell. At a meeting of the citizens of Camp bell and Fayette counties, held at Fairburo, on the 27th, the following resolution, reported by the committee, was adopted Wherkxs, A plan of reconstruction, intended as a finality, lias been pre sented by the Congress of the United States, for the acceptance of the ex cluded States, preparatory to their restoration to the Union s litxuhtd, That in the opinion of this meeting, reconstruction upon the plau proposed by Congress is decidedly preferable to remaining in our present condition. Th# SittuUitu*. No people ever were more heartily desirous of quietude than thorn of our own sunny land, aad surely none hare ever been required to seek it through such meandering wye. Having on mnrmuringly oodured the hardships ih cideat to a moat unfortunate war. the people of the South, when the wager of battle had been won by their enemies, meekly obeyed what seemed to be the mandates of the conqueror. The President's policy not proving to be the policy of Congress and the people, we are now required, through a differ*oit process, again to attempt the great work o! reconstruction. When we yielded such implicit obedience to the President's behest, all with a desire for the general welfare, shall it.be said of us now, that authoritative officials have issued their orders, that a false idea of preserviug our dignity induced us to abandon all hope of the future ? Talk of dignity, honor, and patriotism 1 Why, what higher evt* deuce to prove one’s patriotism need be given, than willingness to sacrifice individual preferences and opinions for the good of the community ? With a record for gallantry and heroic achieve ments that is almost without parallel in the history of the world, Southern soldiers cannot possibly disgrace them selves by acquiesence in the require ments of those against whom they, in the fortunes of war, battled unsuccess folly. With cramped commercial relations, a deranged labor system, and ten3 of hundreds of oar soldier's widows and orphans threatened with starvation—a panacea for which we cannot hope to find, except in more prosperous times— it becomes ns to lay aside .all appear ances of mockery ; abandon all bora bastic notions of affected diguitv, and persistently seek that pathway whereby we may the sooner reach a laud of brighter prospects. Talk of living under military rule for a series of years, in preference to libe ration from it; why the annals of all such is clearly written in the annals of the past; for where, upon the face of the earth, can be found the record of a people who have lived and flourished under such embarrassing circum stances ? The grand idea of life culmi nates in the expectancy of the future. Individuals and nations alike demand a taugible incentive to exertion. ’I here must be something in the distance, to grasp which, we must needs make no illej-' - effort,or insignificant sacrifices. l ej day stand, what have we in -■•ch upon which to lay hold? OR v Mature, at its last session, in Ist planters, granted the rs, merchants, and others, 'ance money to said farm lien upon their property, a our present unsettled e can be found the mer •an, haring the means, become a party to .nent ? He may have aided confidence in the egrity, and, in ordinary ask no better bond than his , but now, the State being handled a conquered province, he knows not what a day may bring forth—hence he is compelled to deny tbe petitioner. And for ostensible reasons, mortgage on the best real estate could not secure a loan for halfy or even quarter its actual value. Compared with ante helium timesi how very short are our trade seasons f The great majority of employees, too, are working in a constant gtate of most agonizing suspense; for they know not at what hour their employer may inform them that, on account of the dullness of the times, he no longer needs their services. Scarcely a day passes, in Au gusta, that one or more clerks or labor ers are not discharged. And consider fur what a miserable pittance young and old men are forced to labor, and how many thousands there are whom un avoidable idleness has well nigh crazed. The writer believes that the remedy for these, and kindred evils, is to he found iu the speedy settlement of the reconstruction question according to the Military Bill. Let us not be cajoled by the delusions of injunction Bills; for we have abundant reason for be lieving that, even if the Supreme Court pronounce in favor of them, its judg ment will sink apace before the author ity and force of Congress, sustained, as it is, by the people of the North. Ihe situation may he summed up in these words: We must combine all good influences for tbe proper and happy reconstruction ot Georgia, or the antagonistic element will reconstrnct tor us, and perhaps, uuder such regime, we might be as sadly perplexed us are the people of downtrodden Tennessee. Now is the time for our young men to prove themselves. Let them seriously ponder this great question, in all its bearings, and then, when its registry shall have been opened, go nnd register and when an election is ordered, vote for Convention, to which we should unite in sending our best men—if possible, meu who have never mingled with politicians. From among our young meu, deserving and competent representatives might be chosen, aud it is hoped that from among them the •election of delegates will be largely made. Let us cease running after sentimentalisms. We live in a practi cal age —let us act practically.
