To Mr. S. this is the most barren victory ever won. Cincinnati Enquirer: “Governor Hendricks is quietly attending to his law practice. He will remain in pence until 1880, when lie ami ids friends intend to make a rush for the Presidency. He will make a lint light for it.” A careful calculation is made in tlie New York Sun of tlie probable result of tlie cen sus of 1880, and he conclu sion is reached that the nation will then have a population of about 47,- 000,000. This will lie an average in crease the country over of about “1 per cent, for ten years. This is deemed too large by tlie Cincinnati Times, which thinks the next census will show only 46,000,IKK), A ballot box with a big Demo cratic majority was stolen at Pleas ant Mount, Miss., by the defeated Independents. A dog belonging to a negro found tlie box, which liml been buried, and the grateful Democrats immediately bought tlie sagacious beast.

At the opening of the extra session we find the House and Senate at va riance. Tlie House limits the army to 20,tKK) men, and provides tlml four companies of cavalry of UK) men each be stationed on the Texas frontier to prevent robberies by the Mexicans Gen. Sherman desires nil army of 40,000 men. Tlie House paid no at tention to Ids wishes. Tliis was refreshing to the soul of that he who punctually draws Ids $18,000 and hates Democrats. Tlie Senate throw, out the House amendments ami in creases the force to 26.IKKI. So there isa dead lock at the very beginning of legislation. We hope the House will not yield. Tills country lias no need of a large armed force. They are always speaking of Indian wars. The only real cause of these arc tlie aggressions of the whites and stealing qualities of those who have the authority to furnish supplies. Wyh, tlie Government will not observe the most solemn of treaties. They are made like laws ngninstganiingnnd whiskey selling— only to be broken. The Indians are grunted reservations and the whites encroach on them at. will, and the authorities make no eflbrt to prevent. Canada, with only a few hundred mounted police keeps in order llum- sands of the flerueat tribes. Even Hitting Dull remains quiet. The Dominion inis regard to stipulations and observes them. The United States regards it as no sin to rob an Indian and drive him from bis home. No wonder he fights bis oppressors and hates them with the Intensity of bit terness. If the administration of Indian atlidrs were in proper hands, there would tie no necessity lor a heavy armed force in the West. What reason is there for nearly a full regi ment at Atlanta? Troops have no business interferring wit 11 railroad strikes. State authorities should at tend to them. An army of 1.">,ihki men Is ample in this country.

I Since leaving Cuthbert, Ga., we have traveled by private conveyance through Clay county in Georgia, Henry county in Alabama, and .Tuck- son county, Florida. AT FORT GAINES We found business very dull and the merchants complaining. While there we learned that Mr. D. C. Adams, a former resident, had Just purchased the bridge recently completed across the Chattahoochee for $(1,000. It cost $10,000. It is substantially built and at each abutpient stanchions are so placed as to protect a wash from tlie largest freshet. AT COLUMBIA, ALA., we found business more lively. Cot ton was corning in every day and sold at 0j and 9J. Our host, Dr. C—, is an old Virginian,' and he entertained us most pleasantly until bed time. During the conversation topic lead to fishing and hunting. A subject always interesting to one so fond of tlie s|«irt as wo are. He stated that while at Dead Lake lust season, with u party of eight or nine, they constructed pens to catch rock- tish and red horse. The first night they trapped seventy-eight, and sup plied the settlement for eight or ten miles around, and Unit during his stay the essence of lisli could be in haled at all times, day and night. His recital of Hie angling would have done you good. He readied one point in tlie lake where lie hud to got behind a tree to bait Ids hook, as the fisli were so thick that they would jump out the water after the halt while placing it on the hook. Wo retired and dreamed of ealeliing whales tlml night. GORDON, At,A., on Sunday, was like a graveyard. We did not tarry long, and pushed for Greenwood, Fla., a most thriving lit tle town. The merchants were in gooil humor. Cotton bales, number ing from ten to twenty, stood before Hie doors of tlie leading merchants, willing sellers and buyers. While then*, a little “serlo coiiiico” incident happened. A little hoy about nine years of age had shuttled off this mor tal coil. His parent, living about two miles front there, came in fop the pur pose of getting a grave dug. It*was finished about dark. The following morning (Sunday) about ten o’clock the remains of tlie poor little fellow were followed by a number of mourn ers to liis lust resting place. On arri val what was tlie surprise of ail to find a huge ox had been llie occu pant, from all appearances, for several hours of that deep and narrow sepul chre. Six able-bodied negroes were soon on the spot with ropes to extri cate that unfortunate ox from its BKEFHEK’N RIVAL. The Rev. Henry Ward Beecher lias a rival in Rev. Dr. Talmago. Botli have Friday evening prayer meetings and each mingles in Ids talks relig ion, politics and everything else. Last week the Rev. Dr. Talmago dis coursed on the elections, gave Morris sey a blast and mimed Ren. Butler among those who were ornaments to the country and a pride to their con stituents. Botli preachers licking to the eluss of sensationalists. Their audiences laugh, applaud and if need be hiss. Speaking of Morrissey tlie Rev. irate Talmago said, “I have intimated a wisli that he might bo washed from the face of the earth, but I had rather lie had never been horn.” As Morrissey lmd been elected Senator, lie douhtlc cared very little about the anathema of the lecturing preacher. Then tit divine spoke tints of the election of Morrissey: “The re-election of John Morrissey to the office of State Senator seemed to be a necessity In order that all decent poople might realize wliat wo have come to. And to make the thing mor conspicuous he lias boon re-elected, not by his old-lillic partisans, but liy Re publicans. Hamilton Fish, General • •rant’s Secretary of State, voted for him. Peter Cooper the friend of edu cation and the founder of a great insti tute, voted for him. Tlie Lrown-stoiie fronts voted for him. The Fifth ave nue equipages voted for him. Murray Hill voted for him. If some of vuit had lived there you would have voted fur him. Meanwhile gambling is made honorable ! Three cheers for the X uaUes 1 and the dead-beats, am* narrow confines. When those six stalwart sons of Africa appeared around tlie grave, the ox did not wait for help, but with one hound extricated ills oxship, bel lowing anil kicking, loft for the bay gaols and tight eyes. We could not tell whether the numerous spectators were crying or not as usual, all had handkerchiefs to their eyes when we left. At lids point. NEAI.’S LANDING, we found our old townsman, Charles Watt, as busy as a bee, cotton coining in every hour since our arrival. Af ter unloading, the wagons were re loaded with coffee, sugar, bacon,boots and shoes, mid all the necessaries in the way of merchandise. At three o’clock lie found time to invite us up, its he said, “to hush," We are to "epicure," having been raised m bacon anti greens, but lie till presisted that we were all epi cures anti almost made me think so.

We were agreeably surprised to find Captain Charles Brockaway In com mand of the Wyllv. He is a great acquisition on any line. Without de tracting in tlie least the efficiency of Its former Captain (Walter Fry) who bus given general satisfhetion along the river, no better or abler com mander than Captain Brockaway ever walked the deck of a steamer.

Andrew Johnson, President of the United States: My Dear Bib — Alexander H. Stephens and Herseliel V. Johnson were elected United States Senators yesterday over Joshua Hill and James Johnson. Will 1st I did not favor the election of these men over Hill and Governor Johnson, who have ever been true to the cause of the Union, I desire to state that tills election should not lie considered as evidence of disloyalty to tlie Government, nor opposition to the policy of your Administration. I am certain that th$ election of Hill and Johnson would have ad vanced our Interests at Washington at tliis important juncture, but the representatives of the people of Geor gia did not so consider it, and now I think it best to recognize their action as (he result of patriotism. Having been a candidate for Senator myself, and having withdrawn at the request of Hill and Johnson, I think I am prepared to give a fair and impartial statement of tlie eauses o|ierating here. Hill is recognized by all men here nsaninn of the purest patriotism and unabated loyalty, but having been an ultra Whig was not the favorite of many old Democrats, and those peo ple are very" sore under the misfor tunes resulting to them from the folly of secession, and are not willing to surrender their pride of opinion at once.heneemany considered It, a kind of salve to their wounded pride to be | permitted to elect one who opposed secession, but hud lieen connected with them in some way during their dis astrous struggle. Governor .Tames Johnson, whilst he is considered by all as a man of decid ed ability, and by all who know him well ns a humane consistent patriot, but there nre those who say he is fickle and vindictive, and- does not sympathize with tlie people of the State, and that he made secession speeches in 1861. I do not suppose these assertions are true, hut a pre judiced people arc easily convinced. The election of Stephens and Her- sciiel V. Johnson was intended us a compliment to them for their strong opposition to secession in 1860 and 1861, as w’cll us to secure the benefit of their talents and experience as states men at this critical period of our his tory. As an evidence of t he loyalty of tliis Legislature, they defeated Benning for Judge of tlie Supreme Court and elected D. A. Walker, a Conservative, ami B. was a most violent secession ist and Major General in the Army. Herseliel V. Johnson was elected over Lucius J. Oai trell, who was a miserable parasite of Toombs, with drew from the House of Representa tives In 1881, commanded a regiment in the rebel army, then was elected to Congress in 1861, voted for the conscript and impressment laws, and filially commanded a brigade of re serves at Andersonville prison. He also defeated John B. Gordon, who was one of tlie most gallant and popu lar Major Generals in tlie army of Lee. In view of the fact that the people, when allowed to vote as they please, will not always do exactly right, and that Stephens and Johnson have al ways been considered friends of the Government of the United States l>y all who knew them well, and that their election is considered in Georgia as a Union triumph, I trust it will work no evil, either to the people of Georgia or yourself. T think both these gentlemen will make speeches here in a fe\y days that will be read with pleasure by every patriot in Amc-riea. Your friend mid obedient servant. J. B. Parrott. P. S.—By reference to tlie enclosed cards you will see that Stephens did not seek tlie position, Johnson was no candidate. J. R. P. us now as deeply deplore, influences of Buen But the election were iden tical with those which pledged unan imously and by formal resolutions the confidence ill and tlie support of the people of Georgia to the policy of Hie existing Federal Administration. These resolutions of our State Legis lature (offered by myself) were passed no later than December last, and I cannot supjiose, nay, it should not lie believed, that when we endorsed the measures of the one, we would seek to render them futile or endeavor to thwart their wise purpose by any treacherous disloyalty! T repeat, therefore, that tlie election of Mr. Stephens accords to the utmost with the expression of our confidence in your Administration, that he Is con sidered prudent, highly capnble and well disposed to second your efforts of reconstruction, and that these com bined ought to sustain him In tlie position to which he lias been culjed. He is emphatically tlie friend of President Johnson, and tlie trusted friend of Georgia with all. His friends have acted conscientiously and wisely as they hope, and commit without reserve his destiny to that tribunal which tlie constitution of his country 1ms ordained. I have thus privately volunteered these re- muksforu two-foid purpose. First, to correctly inform your 'Excellency of Mr. Stephen's views and feelings. Secondly, ns a simple net of justice to u distinguished citizen and personal friend, and with the entreaty that they may bo solely so regarded, have tlie honor to tender you my was’iri sympathies for your successful ad ministration and to assure your Ex cellency of my profound regard and esteem. , Most respectfully, L.

Is VEGETiME My Family Medicine; I WISH NO OTHER. me, which my ' Vherb-tMu* e'knew of; The latest footing of the returns of the New York election put the appar ent majority for Beach, the head of the Democratic ticket, at 14,552. Beach ran behind his ticket, because of an opposition ticket in New York city containing all tlie Democratic candidates names except his. The other Democratic majorities run up to 30,000. Tlie Senate stands: Republi cans, 17; Democrats, 14; Independent, one. The Assembly will stand: Re publicans, 05; Democrats, 57; Anti- Tammany Democrats and Working men, 0. Thus tlie Republicans will have a majority on joint ballot of 4 or 15, against a majority of 20 in the last Legislature, and of 24 in 1875. There seems to be no reason why this small majority should not be wiped out at the next election, and a Democratic Senator secured in place of Conkling. Bread la the tttnfT of I. life.

During the conversation tlie President diverted it from eommon- pluce topics and said that he wanted to bestow a foreign mission upon some proper gentleman belonging to the South.

Milledgeville, Ga., Feb. 3,1866. To His Excellency Andrew Johnson, President United States': Dear Sir: The recent election of the Hon. Alexander H. Stephens to tho Senate of the United States—my unbounded regard for him, as well as tlie small share 1 had in placing him in the office—I trust will he received as ample apology for this letter. The friends of Mr. Stephens are informed that he is regarded in a portion of tho union (far distant, it is true, from his own vicinage) as inimical and dis loyal to tlie Government of the Uni ted States—Hint lie has been placed in the responsible position regardless of consequence to the impartial admin istration of its executive, and un mindful of tlie delicate and peculiar relations which attaeli to him ns a pa roled prisoner of war. Under any aspect which these charges may lie viewed, I nm free to declare to your Excellency that they are altogether groundless, and ns cer tainly unjust. Tlie conduct of Mr. Stephens up to, as well ns since, tlie ordinance of secession by Georgia is matter of historical record. Not only did he oppose tlie fitness and expedi ency of tlie policy of such a measure nt the time of its initiation, but he openly advocated and warmly sup ported tlie claims of the late Mr. Douglass to the Presidency. I can, therefore, speak advisedly when 1 af firm that had Mr. Stephen’s counsels been adhered to, no disruption of Federal relations would have ever oc curred. If, however, the charge of disloyalty now is predicated upon any recent act of liis—any act subse quent to his liberation from prison— it is as unknown to me as it is un hesitatingly disbelieved. I know of nothing he has done, either in word or deed, that can possibly Impair tlie honor of his parole. Tt is true, in the face of that parole lie has been elected by tlio General Assembly of Oeorgiu to a seat in the Senate of the United States—elected, however, by tlie votes of original se cessionists its well as Union men,who united to elect him, whose warning - ' ‘ d. come chronic.
