A French hone, “Gladiatenr,” has jnst won the Derby, in England, in a canter by two lengths. There was a length be tween the second And third horse. Count Lagrange, the owner of the victor*,vins from seventy to eighty thousand pounds. An ivory task, nine feet two inohee long, twenty-four inches in circumference, and weighing one hundred and eighty- three pounds, has arrived in New York from Central Africa. Its commercial value, to cat up into knife handles, combs, . piano keys, etc., is $015. A young man in Lowell poisoned him self recently in a fit of despair. He was violently in love with a young lady, who, it seems, did not reciprocate bis affections. He went to her room, and laying himself across the threshold of the door, took a dose of strychnine. A physician who was called in,' applied the stomach pump —and, apparently much to his disgust, he is recovering. The toilettes worn ftt the first repre sentation of L’Africaine in Paris, were magnificent One youthful married lady wore a black silk gauge dress, starred all over with steel; the second skirt .was looped up as a tunic, with a silk card beaded with steel and jet ; a corslet, made of some silken material, interwoven with steel, was -wore as a bodice; it ex tended to the hips, looking like the cui rass of some knight of old. Above this cuirass the bodice was pnfied, and ter minated round the shoulders vnth steel gimp and a row of black lace insertion. A black velvet necklet, with steel drops, encircled the throat, and the steel ear rings were long enough to touch the ■uonlden. The head-dress consisted of a band of out steel, about an inch wide, waved hair; two tanaeauT'c^ iMt? beyond this steel diadem, and at the back a steel comb looped np plaits, which had black ribbon velvet introduced among diem. “ Mertumara ” it; the name recently given to a female child .in Petersburg.

A white marble Methodist church, cost ing $150,000, has just been completed at Philadelphia.:—Exchange. A an illustration of’the folly of erect ing such extravagant churches, we are re minded of an incident. Many years ago, a devout and worthy clergyman, but not remarkable for ability, took a violent no tion that the edifice in which he preached was not good enough, and set about beg ging money for a new one. In the midst of his perambulations about the city, he fell in with an old^nd wealthy citizen, remarkable for hisWIfervation and knowla edge of men, and sententious manner of r ch. "I am surprised (said he to the jymtua) that you should be laboring so hard to get for your congregation a #30,000 church!” Why so responded the good mao, in evident amazement - “Because when they get their $30,000 meeting-house, they will not be easd un til they get a $30,000 minister.” Th e clergyman seemed pu-tzled at first—but as nothing was afterwards heard from him as to the new church, it is safe to infer he finally “saw the point,’’ One of our leading western merchants, unfortunately is everv year or two led away by the wiles of King Bourbon, and wbw Hi- periodical fits come on he he is wont to Am himself up la a room over his store “to sleep it oft’’ On one of these occasions he gave his partner special orders not to allow any one to go into his room ; “but,” said he, hesitating “if mw anfo oomne _ , . GOV. JOHNSON, MItsmS ia the City Rail, Baws, «a. r •a Snun-day Kvealag, Jfaly Ulk, 1805. EXPORTED FOB THS BACON DAILY TALESRAPH. IT A & MARSHALL. At the hour of 5} o’uloek, according to pre vious announcement, the citizens of Macon as sembled in the City Hail, for the purpose of lis tening to the address of Hon. Jaxzb Johnson, Provisional Governor of Georgia. Maj. Gen. Wilson, Hon. Thot Hardeman and others were present on the stage. In an appropriate>ddreaa, Gov. Johnson was Introduced to the meeting a*, sembled by Mr. Hahprman, and addressed the audience as follows • Frllow Citizens: According to the proclama tion of the President of the U. 8., we ns Geor gian, stand to-day without any civil govern ment. We have no goveraer, no legislature, no judges, no inferior magistrates. This has been the remit of the rebellion. It has dsprived us of all the machinery necessary to carry on a civ il government. . Under this stats of (sets I have been appoint ed, by Ihg.President, provisional governogw’f Georgia. All the power which I can exercise over you, in this office, is derived, by virtue of my appointment, free him. I have not been elected governor under the. laws of Georgia, nor by the sovereign people of Georgia. I have not been appointed for the purpose of establish ing government, carrying on government, ad ministering government; bnt appointed, as ths proclamation declares, for one single purpose, and that is to enable the people of Georgia to form a government. I am invested with no such authority. It not the theory of oar government that I should be so invested. . It ha- bdfen the theory of this republic, from its earliest infancy to the pres ent time, that the people, the people, are the source of-all power, and to them it rightfully belongs to organize, establish and model gov eminent. That I may not be misunderstood and that the idea may fasten itself upon your minds, I will state that I am clothed with the simple authority to enable you to emerge from this chaotic state—this state of disorder and lawlessness—and to place yourselves under the operation of an establish ed government. I have been requested time and again, and it haa been urged open me, that I should exercise the prerogative of appointing judges of the su preme and inferior courts and magistrates, have uniformly declined. It has been nrged up on me that I should sppoiut State House officers —secretary of State, treasurer, comptro Her gen eral, etc. I have uniformly declined to appoint them, simply for the reason that I have not been clothed, by the president, with authority for any such purpose. t has been urged that the provisional gover nors ol North Caroline and Miseiseippi bave ap pointed civil magistrates. It is ao reported, fel low-citizens, in the journals. I have bee'n far ther nrged to mike choloe of some one in eeeb county to administer the amnetty oath. I bate declined it; others have done it, Now, as to my reasons : In the first plaoe lbs president in bis proclamation has clearly defined my powers, and in the next piece, in that proclamation stated, ly distinct terms, thatjlt is referred to the “if my wife comes down yen mav let her a, . , . . „ , - afire has proved to be an abortion, con tributors haring Med to present them selves in sufficient numbers to raise the amount required for ita purchase. A man stopped at a hotel in New York snd depomted $25,000. R was stolen by, ft clerk ci the hotel. A court recently gave the lodger only $1,000 damages on the ground that ths first-named sum was •a unreasonable, deposit. ulnUoca under which this oath shall be. adminis-r tered by any civil, military or naval officer, or any magistrate in the loyal Slates. Ho at tbe same time ( declares that no judge and no magis trate of disloyal States shall administer it. And.yet I am requested to make appointments for that purpose.- I cannot do it. I remember that the question wss pi ejected to me whilst in Washington, and as o'hers differed with me in opinion, for the purpose of having ths question officially explained, I called upon the attorney general to know whether, under the term] of the proclamation, I had the authority, He replied with promptness I bad notnd that if I should appoint a judge, their judgments would be, in the language of lawyeis quorum non juiiat. Then 1 have no sueh authority expressly given in the terms of my commission, bnt oq the contrary it isexpreesly forbidden; and do matter what may be tbe necessity for the appointment), or however beneficially they might be used, as tbe authority does aot exist, the appointments oaoGot be made. Bnt there are officers appointed who will ad minister this oath. They are the military offi cers in the country. And, if they are not suf« ficient, others, I have no doubt, will be givsn ua There is every disposition on the part of tbe gov ernment to administer this oath, and with as little inconvenience to us as possible. It is left f< to come forward and take it. No obstacle will be tbPown in the way of onr doing so. These military gentlemen, I hare no doubt, will gladly avail themselves of this power to serve you tin der the roles prescribed by the Seoretsry of State. There haa been some misunderstanding on this subject, whieh, if rectified, there will be a better disposition on the part of tbs people to conform to the regulations prescribed, to enable yon to ea^ilish a repnblioan form of gevernv Now I call on you, having diaolurged my dn- ty in this particular, to discharge yours ; and re- move the obstacles which may bo in tbe way of receiving the amnesty oath, and to prepare your- selves to become voter* for delegates to a con vention of the people of Georgia, and then to vote (or these delegatee. This convention, when tflfca assembled, will represent the muses of tbe State, and this ia the power that will prescribe the jarisdictien of judges, and limit their powers. It is called tor the purpose of enabling yon to establish a free government. When this con vention has assembled it will adopt a constitution that shall provide when the governor end mem- bofs of each branch of tbe (seers! assembly shall be elected, how the State shall be districted governor and members of the legislature shall ba elected, then the legislature may meet and make laws for ths government of the State. Georgia will thee be ones more invested with all the rights end authority belonging to a sovereign State. I now feel bound to declare to you one thing which you must recognize as accomplished; and the sooner you know it, and conform to it, the looser will you be relieved from tnilitaty rule. Blown/ txitU no more. ■felts is decreed. Ito restoration, under any tons, il utterly out of the question. Tkooe who indulge hopes to the contrary are laboring under a delusion. In order to cOnvinoe yog of thifi, I will call your attention tef certain facts which have already transpired. Twenty-five State] in tbe Union have already accepted ths proposed amendment to tbs consti tution of the United Stater, by whieh amend ment it is declared that slavery, or involuntary servitude sbsD. uo longer exist hi the United States, and that eonrrem may make law* to car ry this Into effect. Twenty-fire States bare rat ified and adapted this propoted amendment; on ly two are wanting to ptise It by a constitutional mtjoriiy, and when it is go passed It wifi be the law ef the land. These two will be Obtained. There is no possibility of defeating it. And when it Shan have been dene, the constitution will declare that slavery, In the United States, no longer exists. But fratbermore slavery bee been extinguished by tbe operations of the late war. I do not pro pose, in thin connection, to enter upon lengthy argument to prove U. I simply Mate what is universally acknowledged, by all writers on national law, that belligerents have-the right to make captures of persons and property, and that they may make what disposition they please of the property captured. The vanquished are at the disposition of the oonqneron and may be disposed of as they think proper. Such Is War, and it is a sin against God and humanity that it ahoold be waged.' We must submit to tbo result of tbe war. Congress, by the constitution of the United States, has tbe power to give to the president tbe regulation ef oaptaree by ssa and land, and the president, ia 'the exereise ef this power given to him by the eonstitation end by oongtevs, issued his proclamation dis p*-iog of tfaetr captures, declaring' that all the i egroa who ware slaves in the revolted fttates, should, by virtue of that proclamation, become emancipated. Such is, in iny jud w ( ths lit , and I believe the supreme court wip decide. -I come to another point. The constitution which the people of G eorgia shall adopt in con vention will be required to recognize this fact, The convention will be called upon to agree to this amendment to the eonstitation that slavery shall no longer exist in these States. They will be called upon to doeide this before their reetora tion to the Union, in order that this quarrel about slavery, which has existed from the begin ning of the government td the present time shall never be revived, and in order that there maybe no dispute among the 'people of this State on the subject They must provide for its extinction now, and so 1 tell yon to-day, if you wish to be admitted into the Union, this cenven tioq of the people of Georgia must be composed of such material aa will recognize the fact of the extinction of slavery in Georgia, and agree to the amendment to the constitution of the U. S-, whieh will extinguish slavery throfighout the country. So, then, I aay to yon again, under whatever^ view you may take of the subject, slavery is extinguished. It is gone—it is gone forever. I have heard complaints upon this point, fel low-citizens, that in passing from the state in whichwe have been into the new order oi things a great many difficulties and inconveniences will arise. Nothing else could have been ex- neotofl, Tt is said the negros will straggle mang us who dared to differ from us on this subject ware arraigned, net by law,or before a legal tribunal, but before vigilant societies, and personally abused. Civilization wss almost driven from the land—jfv and order was suppressed by these lawless men. Bat now we oan took over this land and pray, aa Solomon did, that all of Adam’s raoe may be ele vated to dignity . and happiness. Now' every one may, in the exercise of bit constitutional tights, ad vocate slavery or denouaoe it, surrounded as he is by the power, of the government of the U. 8., which protects us foliy in tbe enjoyment of these tights. Bat, fellow citizenS, as I before remarked, we have severely suffered from this war. Oar towns have been burned and destroyed, onr fields have been laid watte, tor homes and cattle have keen taken from ns, and our children have failed on bloody fields. But not withstanding this, there is hope, it seems to be tbe order of Prqyidence is dealing With nations, as He deals with individu als, that they shall be perfected by I titterings. We shall come out of this controversy a more glorious and happy people. The presence of liberty will be well guarded among ua. We shall remaia a free and united people. In looking dawn the vista of time, I see Georgia ten-(old more prosperous, and when all onr sectional prejudices shall have died away, we shall meet together, North and Booth, as brethren, rejoicing under onr government, and marching on to the-fiiorious destiny which is be fore na. Not only *Vill Georgia inorease in wealth and population, bnt the whole Southern country will be more prosperous iu arts, manufac tures, wealth and civilization- ( see them march ing on in this new order of things. The whole country united in the bonds of obarity and love must go on prospering until this great nation shall be unequalled by any power on earth. This is onr oountry; these are her qpoepeots. To this standard I invite you to rally. “ ’Tie the star-spangled banner, oh long meyif wave w T O'er the. land of the free and -the home of tha yy A [After the conclusion of his address, Governor Johnson spent some t-me in greeting his numer ous friends who presented themselves, while the audience quietly dispersed.—EevoRtek.J OFFICIAL.

But for the purpose ot rectifying these evils, we we must have a legislature that will make laws to punish them, and punish them severely, for the commission of (Time. That your remedy;. complaining will not do any good And not only that, bnt it is olaimed. by some that the negres will net work. I know that those who have been driven off the farina do not work, because they have no opportunity of working, and some of them will not work where they have not been' driven off. For this latter olast the legislature most make laws declaring them vagrants, apd pun ishing them a* ssoh. The negro will not work I How do yon know they will not. I saw them working very well in New York, and other places where I have been. It ia tree they sometimes commit orlmrs la those places, and they are punished for it. They mutt work—they can work —they must either work or perish. What is the difficulty f Do not the people have to work ia Gersaany, in France, in New York, in Obiol What is the reason they will not work? toll yon they will work ; and 1 mast lay that under the peculiar oireamstaneea by whieh they wwe sor. roanded, no people ever behaved better than they have done. Those who tell you they will not work have hopes oi continuing their oootrol and domin ion over them. They will work under contracts of hire, and if they fail, they become vagrants and may b<r punished or exiled, as the laws of the State may direct. Let the legislators meet and pass tbe needful laws for their regulation, and everything will move smoothly on. Let them be employed by men of humanUy, a nd have fair compensation giv en them, and in my judgment, no difficulty will Me in the way.

Whilst we have been hurt and chastised for the present, yet let us remember that we may accu mulate property in Ihe future, and all our surplus capital, instead of balng laid out in negro*,’will be expended ia permanent improvements, in increas ing tbe oomforto of bar house*, manuring onr laods< planting orchards, building permanent feooes and In manufactures ef aB kinds.
