The thirty-seven counties entitled to three delegates are as fol lows : Bibb, Burke, Oarrell, Oaas, Chatham, Cherokee, Clerk, Cobb r Columbia, Coweta, Decatur, Floyd, Falfoa, Gordon, Green, Gwin nett, Hell, Hancock, Harrir, Henry, Houston, Jackson,' Meriwether, Monroe, Muscogee, New. too, Oglethorpe, Richmond, Stewart, Sumter, Talbot, Thomas, Troup, Walker, Walton, Washington, Whitfield.

Szxsiblx View.—We leern from the Galves ton .' r em that the people oi tlje populous coun ty of Harrison, Texas, are acting very sensibly in relation to the new-order of things. They have held a meeting and resolved that they recognise the war as over, and are anxious for the establishment, not only of good order, but good feeling between all sections of the country; that they belong alike to the Union, and desire as early as possible to restore it to its original rigor with its protection and civil rights, and the principles of constitutional freedom. They respectfully memoralize tne authorities of the United Slates to abandon all apprehensions of resistance. They say at law abiding citizens, (hey will res pect the emancipation proclamation, as a war measure, desiring at the same time to bare Or der, industry, and sobriety among the negro population, and to care for them, as they have been accustomed, until action is taken with the final disposition of the question and deter initiation of their status, as consistent wlth^he constitution of the United States, which is the supreme law of the land, m Not a Wokd of Rbhovstbancb.—The Cin cinnati Oommertial, of the 19th ingt, makes a number of extracts from this journal, among others an article we published July 5tb, notic ing the formation of a negro league in this city. Thia movement of the blacks is spoken of approvingly by that journal, instead of its being condemned, as it should be. It would seem that the people ef the South, in the hour of this new peril, will not reeeive the sympathy of the Oommereial editors. We can inform them their atetement of the league business falls far short of the actual state of things. An we understood t ruff T8Hf Mini »mas untimr stou su wntt-AcnsR men •antr. In the conduct of this journal we started out with the determination to tell the people the truth; to present facts, however painful and unpalatable. We are not disposed to deceive the people by portraying events in false colors. Our only object is to convince them of the actual situation, so that the im portance of prompt action may be realized. A temporizing non committq^policy, ho wove* much it would suit the feelings end prejudices -of the people, no h on Sit man, no nutn who has the good of the country and his people at heart, should pursue.

It is now our duty to inform the authori* ttis, those to whose bands havq, bean intrust ed the management and "control of our affairs, actual events that are now transpiring, which require immediate and prompt action.

Special Corresponds ace of Hi* Daily Telegraph -1 New Yoke, -July 19,1865. Eoitobs Tnua^rai With the exoepUoo of the execution of the assassins of the late pre sident, the past week has been singularly bar. reu o! exciting events. The Fourth of July, to be afire, came in, with all its attendant train tbe lltb inst., Collector Draper of the port of New York, paid into (he treasury $4,200,000, in gold, being the proceeds of recent sales of cotton, and other seized or abandoned proper ty. The money arising from these sales is no longer a special fund, but goes into the genet treasury account, and persons baring demam for property of the kinds specified, seized destroyed by the Government, will hsve prosecute their cases before a court of cl and if surcassful, wait for special appro] tions by Congress to do them justice. Look Oct.—The Louisville Democrat, of the 12th says that city at' the present time is flooded with counterfeit treasury notes of ths. denomination of fifties, which are so well ex ecuted as to almost defy detection. A number of sharpers are engaged in shoving them, and within the previous few days several cf our citizens had beep impesed upon. The calor- oring of (he bill is of s darker hue than the genuine. >. of St Do mingo will be re-enacted in our midst be fore the cjose of the year. We speak advisedly. We have authentic information of the speeches and conversation Of the blacks, sufficient to con vince us of their pttfposo, They make no seCret of their movement. Tell us not that we are alarmists. After due investigation and reflection upon this matter, we have determin ed to talk plainly, without fear or favor,' and if our voice qf waning it not heeded, we, at least, will hava the consoling reflection that we have performed our daty. One word to the paddle : Our aafety and protection from such occurrences depend at present upon the military power of the United States; and it is competent to defend us. But how can we expect to guard against this stave ■of things in the future ? Dees any sanaApm suppose that by a sullen .and obstinate spirit of quiosceuoe, the future wellbeing of tbe State and of society, can be secured ? In a short time we will be called upon to eend delegates to s convention to form a State constitution. Is it not important that men of statesmanship and wisdom should represent us ?

They are to be chosen by you.— Will you net at ones qualify yourselves for the exercise of the elective franchise t Argument upon this subject is unnecessary. Every thinking man must admit, there is but one course left ns, dictated by reason ami-com mon sense. We will not insult the intelli gence of tbe people by an elaboration of this subject. The remedy for our present situa tion is self evident end too apparent for dis- cussicn. Let those who have .been tbe lead ers of the people come out and address them publicly, as they do in private, and urge them to action. It is natural that our people should feel dispirited and gloomy. By tbe results oi the war, they find the accumulation of years, swept away. The? find themselves bankrupt. Tbe capital we bad in slaves is gone, but all is hpt gone. Our {lands remain—our energy re mains. We still have atroag arms and ttout hearts to battle with, adversity- We are left uon and sBUramonr own way. Te? us qualify The National Intelligencer. It is certainly an extraordinary circumstance that in passing tuccesfully into the hands of different manager?, this time-honored journal itself remains unchanged in its essential char- acter.

So for as we can .gather of ths character of tbo orations deliv« ered, there was less glorying over the result than a feeling of thankfulness expressed for the blessing of peaoe. If we oared just now, says the nation, to play the part of tbe slave behind the oonsul fo hia chariot, in his triumphal pro gress, we might say much of the risk we st ill run, of the stumbling-blocks which still be strew our path, of tbe temptation to which we may succumb, or of tbe thousand sins that ffill assuredly beset us. Thera are few who celebrated tbe Fourth of Jaly this year, who did not And in tbe recent history of their own families or those of their friends, reminders enough that the brightest picture has its dark ride. For how many thousand do the bells ring, and ths banners wave, and the music swell in vain. President Johnson has been quite ill for s week .past, owing to tbe arduous duties be has been called to perform. Offi ce seekers from both North and South beset him at every turn. Many applications for pardon lie in wait for him, and negro delegations in sny number want to shake hands with hiovand hold a tittle chat about voting. Those seeking for pardon foe principally the twenty thousand dollar msn of the South, who are willing to take any Bteps that may be necessary for that purpose. The precaution is taken ofxequirlng in each case a report from tbe proviskmaMfcov ornor of the State in which the applicant re- side*, upon, first, the probability of bis prov ing a useful, peaceable citizen in future; sec ond, tbe existence of sny proceedings in con fiscation against bim; and third, tbe posses sion or non-possession of his abandoned prop erly by the United States. Among the Southern ladies of note who are now in New York, we have bad the pleasure of meeting Miss Augusta J. Evans, of Mobile, who is the guest of Mr. J. C. Derby, the pub lisher. Miss Evans is not looking nearly as well as when we saw her in 1869. Her health has evidently been affected by thefoires and ex perieaces of the past (our years, and there is no doubt that she is tieeply disappointed at tbe result of the war. Probably no woman entered into tbe cause of the South more earn esllyfbelieviog moreover in its justness than Miss Evans, and when the bubble burst, and she saw that the confederacy was a failure tlo one could feel the bitterness ef tbe moment more than the. “Macaria," and alio an ear lier novel “The Alamo,” were both republished here during tbe war, and as they hsd a {food sale, there ongbt to be quite a snug sum com- pects to return to Mobile in the course of few days.

The subjoined article from ths Intelligencer of.tlie 7th of July will show that the “Oracle” is. not yet either dumb or degenerate.—Nash ville Gazette. Tbe leading and most gratifying focf record ed among tha proceedings cf the just-put Fourth of July is the truly American letter of the president, on the occasion of the Gettys burg cejobration, and which was published by us yesterday. “I am greatly mistaken,” writes the president, “ if; in the States lately in rebellion, we do not henceforward have an exhibition of suoh loyalty and patriotism as was never sees or felt there before.” Recur ring to tbe foundation on which onr Union stands, the president pronounoes these true and gratifying words: 1 ' Based as It is upon the coasont, virtue, pa triotism*, and intelligence of the people, each { tar shall mike it firmer and more imposing.” nis is a wise and noble utterance, and has tho ring of tbe old Union metal. Coming from tbe head of tbe nation, sentiments so full df assurance to patriots and of ominous warn ing to demagogues are even as a rock of strength. The recognition of tho States is existing government?, and the prominent fea ture made of the “consent" of the governed, ss main elements in our democratic system, is a guaranty that, ao far as tbe president is con - earned, tho fundamental principles of our in stitutions will suffer neither change nor tyran - nicsl restraint. And the paternal ofloourago- ment which he so warmly throws out to the expanding loyalty, -cf the South is la noble contrast with that mean and destructive spirit that, assuming any disguises, nevertheless has the prosecution of sectional war and bate for ita brealh and blood Items.

Instead, therefor?, of flouting tbe South, and holding her up as contraband of human sympathy and American protection, tbe true duty of statesmanship is instantly to go to work to build up material condition, and to reblend the interests, pride, and affection of her sons and daughters with our own.

These are my sentiments; and, however unpopular they may be, I have not the least, desire to conceal or to disgu se theta.” To these words of one of the re vered names of the republic, we deem it prop- er and timely to add those of Alexander Ham- iltop, who wrote: “A share in the sovereignty of tho State, which is exercised by the citizens at large, is one of the most important rights of the subject, and in a republic ought to stand foremost in the estimation of tbe law. It ia that right by which we exist as a free people, and it certainly, therefore, will never be ad - mittod that less ceremony ought to be used in divesting any citizen of that right than in de priving him. of his property.
