He believed thaL in June,. 1870, the Unitad Slates will contain 39,613,115 persons, ot whom 4,664,418 will be blacks ; and the old free Stales will have 25,768,571 persons, against 13,844,544, in the old slave Slates. This would be an increase for the whole country ol over eight millions in the last ten years. As to wealth lie estimates that of the whole country next June at $27,443,- 156,507 ; of which, in round numbers, eighteen and a halt millions will be in real estate, and eight and three quar ters in personal.

GEORGIA FOREVER. We see from some of our exchanges* that a number of our citizens are leaving the Sta*-' as tv y think to better their con dition. Never a greater mistake, taking everything into consideration. It is true that Texas has more territory than Geor gia, and perhaps lands are cheaper, but with all the advantages that our State holds out in her railroad facilities, and her commercial advantages in such cities as Savanuah, Brunswick, Augusta, Macon, Atlanta, Columbus, Albany and Rome, there need be no fear but that fair prices can be obtaiued for everything that is pro duced or manufactured. It is with peculiar pride and gratifica tion that we see our grand old State occu pying such an envialile position among her sister States, and attracting the atten tion of capitalists from all sections of the Uuion. We feel that there is a tide in our affairs, and if taken at the flood, will lead ou to fortune. There can be no better opening to make money than is presented by our State. With an area of some 37,- 000,000 of square acres, and about 32,- 000,000 that can be put into cultivation, there ueed be no complaint of want of land for ourselves or our children We have a population of 1,200,000 per increased in ten years two hundred and ] h and of tbat numb er about 700,000 thirty one thousand bales; this, not-j * „ . 3 I whites.

A rustic flight of A Delicious Blunder.—As one of the most gallant Brigadier Generals of our late army was crossing the Fair Grounds at Macon, he was suddenly confronted by a lady who smiling in all lhe glory of rosy lipped beauty, took both his hands, shook them most hear tily, and then making a rosebud of her whether it will not be suicidal folly to i rows so that they maybe cultivated repel any proffered or possible support.

On the occasion of our visit there was a four inch snow on the ground, and as they were out gun ning, we had to await their return. When they made their appearance they were walking very briskly, and soon they were engaged in a spirited run. On one of their inside shoulders they carried a double-barreled shot gun, and were in fine humor. As soon as she had done this, she turned to present him to her compan ion, and she not catching the name, asked for it. The General, lifting his hal, announced his name, at which the first lady shrieked, and shouted that she was mistaken in the man—that she took him lor a cousin of hers. The General laughed; the party chatted merrily for a while, then ihe gallant the wonderful advantages our seasons give them for making two crops on the same piece of land the same year. As to the mode of cultivating the soil, we know that there will be a revolution in less than three years, and the present plan will be laughed at as the essence of old fogy no-, tions and ideas ; and land that under the old system of cultivation yielded a bag of cotton to three acres, will give to the planter a bag for every acre tbat is at all cultivated properly ; and wliero we once got 10 bushels of eoru to the acre, we will look for at least 30 or 40 as a sure calcu lation. There is no necessity for leaving old Georgia with the expectation of finding a better country or one that will hold out eu*» perior inducements—it cannot be found on this continent. We are not liable to the epidemics that sweep over the valley of the Mississippi and that carry to the grave thousands of the inhabitant every year ; nor are we subjected to the overflows that desolate plantations and bring poverty to the owners. In point of health and cli mate, wo are peculiarly blessed, blessed as but few States are bless when we take into consideration our agricultural and mineral resources, .and our manufacturing advantages when w’e shall turn our attention more fully in that direction. The controlling reason with us why we desire our people born upon the soil to re main in the State is : Tbat wo want a homogeneity of sentiment,of feeling among ourselves as Georgians, nud we can only have it by our people remaining upon the soil and not giving it np to a foreign element that cannot and will not syrupa' thiso cordially with us. There is much in being born npon the soil; it gives character, pride and love of home and people, and when a Georgian clasps the hands of a Georgian, be knows tbat there is a com mon sentiment and a pride of feeling and a unity of interest tbat makes them one iu feeling and thought; that they have a common ancoBtry aud a common cause.— Not so, however, with a mixed and hetero geneous mass ; having no local pride, no common history, no common ancestry, aud no common custoniq. There can bo no common tie to bind them in the strong bonds of common friendship. A people or State to be really strojig, prepared and ready to resist any outside assault must have a homogeneity of feeling aud sentiment, aud then there cau be no room for jealousies, fears or hates. If our people will remain upon the soil wu cau ever impress any elemout that may come in among us, hut if we surrender the land to strangers and foreigners then we will loose our identity and become like onto them. Our idea can readily be per ceived.and the point we wish to make plain, is :—Let us be a homogeneous peo ple with a common sentiment, and let ns retain our lands for our children, not fore ing them to leave the State of their na tivity because we have foolishly sold our lands cheap to get a population regardless of future results. Those who may come in among us should be treated kindly, but we are op posed to begging or sending for immigra tion just to have a population. Wisdom says let your State grow naturally,and not force a growth that will in the end per- perhaps. cause regret to our children. Our habits are our second nature, and are as strong if not stronger, if not stronger than our original. As practice makes per- feet, so a habit long indulged, becomes al. most irresistable ; it silences reason,laughg at resolution, and mocks judgment. He who pleads habit, recognises and obeys an iuexorable tyrant and becomes in a de gree, irresponsible. “We are not worst at once ; the source of evil Begins so slowly, and from such slight source An infant’s hand might stop the breach with clay • But let the stream grow wider, and Philosophy ‘ Ay, and Religion too, may strive in vaiu gia. Gov. Bullock has reached that point in his political career, and as a i -Execu tive officer, that he does not hesitate or scruple at any means to accomplish his ends. He'does uot hesitate to slander or mis represent; nor does he hesitate to handle public funds without warrant. Instead of endeavoring to make himself a name and character for honesty and integrity, he, in his political madness and unwarranted use of the public funds, is sinking himself deeper and deeper in disgrace aud infamy, j He is conscious that he can make no dc- j fence before the Legislature for his many acts, political aud Executive, aid he feels j that if the Legislature is not as corrupt as himself, he will be impeached, and that quickly, when it again assembles. Hence his great desire to reseat the ne groes and save himself, aud if not in that way, influence Congress to appoint him Provisional Governor, and thus save him self. Conscious of guilt and wrong, he scruples not at any means to save himself from impeachment. We hope however, that there are enough men, Republicans, so called in Georgia, who will have the energy and patriotism to expose Gov. Bullock at Washington, and explain the motives and causes for his great anxiety to have the State remand ed back to a Provisional government. We call upon Messrs.
