THURSDAY MORNING, SEPT. 21, 11-65.
Election Tipkets.
We are prepared to fill orders for tickets,
• fof- the ensuing election, at short notice. Re
member the election will take place on the
first Wednesday of October.
To Ci|y Subscribers.
Hereafter, the delivery of the Telegraph
to subscribers in arrears, will be discon
tinued. Those wishing the corttinuance of
the paper, will do well to renew at once.
TO THE PUBLIC.
On and after Sunday, Sept. 10th, the price
of the Daily Telegraph will be ten cents per
single copy, purchased from newsboys or at
the counter. The'proprietors of this journal
regrtt the necessity which compels this
raise." The tax upon publishers’ receipts is
much heavier than that assessed, upon those
of other avocations. The general income
tax is required; a tax upon circulation, a spe
cial tax upon advertisements, and an addi
tional tax upon epch paper sold at thp gpunfor.
The present prices wiil not pay for the cost
Of the blank paper, not calculating composi-
ficm-and general expenditures.
This announcement is made after consulta
tion with the sepior editor of our city cotem
porary, Mr. Rose, and a siinilar announcement
will be made on the part of that journal.

OUR POLICY.
In the arduous and difficult work now b.e-
of Southerner^ to toanifest a just apd reason- fore- the Soutl)'- social, p&iticA andih-
Soctu Carolina.—It was reported that
the election in South Carolina, resulted in
thexhoice of a largo majority of “fire caters.”
But the-other day, when resolutions- of dis-'
content were offered, they received only five
votes, and wqe laid on the fable after the foil-
ure of a motion to print. The geverpor’s
message strongly sustains the president’s re
construction policy. These are nuts for cor
respondents to ©rack, who have been sending
false statements of the feeling of our people
to. the Northern press..
Income Tax.—Tire internal revenue laty re
quires that all incomes over six hundred, and
not exceeding five thousand dollars, shall be
taxed at the rate of five percent., and the ex
cess over five thousand at the rate of ten pfr
cent. Ifan individual's income befiye thous
and dollars per annum the six hundred dol
lars exempted by law is deducted, and the
remaining forty-four hundred assessed at the
rate of five per cent. If the income be ten
thousand dollars tlicjrate will be five per cent,
on forty-four hundred, and ten-percent, on'
the remaining five thousand dollars.
Negro Suffrage.—At a meeting of the
Des Moines (Iowa) conference of the Metho
dist Episcopal church, Bishop Simpson pre
siding, a resolution in favor of negro suffrage
was passed by acclamation. Connecticut is
to vote on the firstMonday in October on on
amendment to the -State constitution, grant
ing the ballot to the colored population.—
The republican State convention of "Wiscon
sin, held last week, laid on the table resolu
tions in favor offcegror suffrage. Mr. Harlnfi,
secretary of the interior has written a letter
endorsing the resolutions of the republican
State convention of Iowa in. favor of allowing
colored men to vote, by State action.
A Test at Hand.—A floating paragraph
announces that the people of Connecticut will,
decide the question of negro suffrage in that
State, at the October electron, yea or nay.—
We are glad this opportunitp of testing pop
ular proclivities for the “ American citizen of
African descent” is presented. We are anx
ions to learn how the principle will be enter
tained when affecting themselves, by a people
whose representatives in Congress are so anx
ious to apply it to the South. An election
on this question, in the same State, eighteen
yearn ago, resulted in an overwhelming ma
jority against the proposition; but we can
scarcely hope for a similar result now. The
political education of the “ wooden nutmeg”
State has been decidedly pernicious of late
years, and it may be her people have become
thoroughly imbued with the sentiments afi
Massachusetts, who are fossilized negropho-
bists. As this is the first opportunity pre
sented to test the sense of the North
ern people on President Johnson’s recon
struction policy, the result will be looked
for with interest. And we must admit that
should Connecticut decide in favor of social
and political equality for the negro, her rep
resentatives in congress may, with some show
of consistency, surge a general acceptance of
the proposition. But should this thoroughly
abolition State refuse to embrace Sambo, we
may accept the verdict as an unerring index
of Northern sentiment being against the pol
icy.
ANOTHER RADICAL 'PRONUNCIA-
MENTO.
TheMassachusetts republican State conven
tion assembled at Worcester, on the fourteenth
of this month, to nominate a governor and
lay down a platform. The attendance was
large, and Senator Sumner was chosen pre
siding officer. The resolutions,brcathed, as
usual, fire and Sword against the Sbuth, and
the chairman demonstrated that his «d -in
this Christian mission was unflagging as ever.
The resolutions adopted call -for vigor and
vigilance, in dealing with the “States lately
in rebellion,” and the extirpation of every
trace of slavery; that no Southern men who
tried to destroy, the nation by arms, are the
proper persons to be trusted with authority;
and in allusion^o the granting of suffrage to
the negros, that “no test can be made which
will deny it to those who have borne arms jn
defense of the republic, and grant it to rebel L We agree with the Commercial, that the
able loyalty to^the government beneath which
they now el weft—a government-which dan
bless and prosper, them beyond computation,
if they wisely avail themselves of its good
will and good offices—surely it becomes them
to take the most timely and judicious method
for that manifestation. These methods should
be such as will convince the administration
that they are sincere, honest and come from
the great heart ofllie'peoplethemselves: they
should be such as the chicanery and wire
pulling of -political tricksters do not usually
bring about, and cannot use for selfish ends f
they should be such as jvill convince .the
Northern mind that sedition, contumacy, re
bellion have expired, and- that a frank and
cordial unionism has taken their place: they
should be such as will* kill suspicion, begot
confidence and secure reliance, not only on
the part of the administration, but Of- the
greatmass of the thinking and sensible North
ern people. . • ■ - . ,
In the first place, the administration, hav
ing Required confidence in us, will proceed
rapidly in its scheme of re-construction, re
gardless of the carpings of those radical»;who
forever oppose what does not tallywith their
extreme ideas.
In the second place, the great Republican
party will gradually awake to the fact that
the Sorfth is indeed loyal, and does not need
quite so much of its paternal care and atten
tion ; and it will intermeddle less and less
with our concerns, and interfere less and less
with the plans of the government. It will
become less inclined to resist the admission
of the Southern States, becaustf it will have
little reason to do so; and, if its leaders shodld
make the attempt, the mighty voice of the.
people” of "the whole land would-pnt them,
down.
•In the third place, harmony and quiet Will
be restored the speedier to onr country, ho
mogeneity be tha earlier established, a united
public sentiment be the sooner secured, and
the grand march of the South to honor, pros
perity and happiness be entered upon with-,
fairer-nuspiccs and beneath brighter" skies.
We must not underrate the necessity Ofthis
exhibition.of loyalty.;, wc should a,ot misun
derstand its -propriety.- Four years liavo,
darkened the Northern mind against "us in a
wonderful degree, gnd the government is con
trolled by that mind more than we tlunk;
and wc are in the hand» of the goternment. If
we have made up our minds that it. is best
for us—our duty and to onr interest—4o sub
mit to that government, let ns so signify with
a good grace. Th§ times are more grave for
us than we, in our indifference and inertness,
imagine; and prompter and more decisive
measures are-required of us than we suppose."
The huge mountain of prejudice and suspi
cion we have to remove cannot be dislodged
by half-way measures and listless movements;
vigorous, whole-souled, universal means must
be nctojJte'rl—means that shall indicate heart-
impulses— measures that shall cover the
whole ground, and leave nothing more to be
asked by the administration, and that shall
dispel all doubts of loyalty, on the part' of
the Northern people themselyes.
What is the first grand method we propose
to the people of Georgia, by which they shall
indicate their acquiescence in the present
state of affairs, and their determination to
support the administration ? " It is. for ^(liem,
all over the State, to' hold .meetings and ex
press sentiments of loyalty to the Union—of
confidence in the government, and a determi
nation to abide by its decrees—of the accept-
ance of all the actual results or the war, and
of. a determination no mdre to disturb the
peace of the country. From every county
let there go up a voice which shall reach the
government and assnre it of adhesion anH
suppbrt; from e'very part of the State let
there be sounded forth acquiescence in the
death of slavery—submission to the laws of
cofigrfcss-^a determination to support the con
stitution—a desire for a State, constitution, to'
comport with the new-prder of things—a de
termination to treat the freedmen with kind-,
ness, justice and forbearance—and a desirc-
for the general arid continued prosperity of
the whole country; and when our convention
meets, let it freely^ express these sentiments,
and quietly affect the necessary changes in
our State laws and constitution fo suit the.
altered state of affairs ; gpd when the mem
bers of our legislature <ve elected, let such
be chosen as will bq most likely to harmonize
with, the desires of the Federal government.; (
and, above all, when wq elect men tp con
gress, let us.be careful to elect such as •tap
least likely to. be objeqted to by the Northern
representatives. Let all these measures be
adopted, and, at the same rime, let our puh-
lic prints, pur private conversations and our
general actions, all indicate a general sympa
thy with the national administration, and we
will soon find our calamities passing away—
brotherly kindness and -well-being rap
idly restored—peace, harmony and prosperity
abounding, and the bright beams of hope and
joy illumining all the broad heavens above us.
dual rial fjeonst ruction, we can think of no
more.appropriate or valuable lesson than that
.conveyed incite familiar juvenile story of the
old dying patriarch and the bundle of sticks.
In illustrating the strength of the Union be
defied the united efforts of his sons to break
thc faggot, but any one of them, without ap
parent effort, could destroy it by the single
stick. Just so with the South, even jn this
hour of apparent ruin. Each man and each
community may be But a’Weak stick, but if
all are bound together in a common- purpose
if all move forward harmoniously, prudent
ly and patriotically,' it is impossible" that "so
intelligent an integer should fail to make it
self felt and respected. It cannot long re
main defenseless. We know what'the South
has been. -We; know that the constitution,
and government of this great republic archer
handywork, and we know how largely she has*
heretofore contributed to shape the destinies
of the nation. We may be temporarily ruin
ed in pqpket4-Kut" the mind—the intelligence,,
the animating spirit, still lives. We are still
a people of large numbers and vast resources,
and amid all the profound darkness and des
pondency of the present, we will venture the
prediction, that our sun will yet rise again in
undimiuished splendor. .
But as, in such disordered and unsettled
times as these, there seems to be more oppor
tunity and greater temptation for factious,
discontented, ambitious and selfish spirits to
divide and distract the people—forward, pre
sumptuous men who rise like foam and bub
bles to the top of the seething pot," the lesson
of the faggot should be deeply, heeded by
the public. Private interests are so intimate-'
ly blended with, andinseparjble from, great
public interests, that they may be well said-
to be almost identical. We have nothing se
cure which we may now call onr own, till
we re-establish public order'afid security.—
Here is the foundation, without'which the
whole superstructure of common and private
wealth must rest upon the mere-, -breath of
toleration or power. Is it at such a time as
this, that a people ought to be plagued with
the devices and distractions of scliemery and
self-seeking politicians ? Nay! nay! Let*
them stand aloof for awhile! Let them wait
till their sport ceases to -be' death -to the
masses. „ ,' . . .
And a word in conclusion, personal to the
Telegraph. Various are the devices to
bring this paper to the aid of mere private,
•ventures in politics, -as .well as other
schemes of personal advancement. The
Telegraph, at no period of its- long -career,
ever ran on errands; and, bearing in mind
its history, as well as following "out their
own conclusions, its present conductors are
determined upon pursuing* an entirely
independent course, dictated by their own
judgment of the public interests, and
necessities. We will .publish nothing, no
matter where emanating, which, in our
opinion, conflicts with this programme, or
does not conduce to the ends-ftf a useful,*pa
triotic and entertaining newspaper. We
hold all communications sent to us for publi
cation at our absolute and Unconditional dis
posal, and recognise no obligation to publish
because we may have been selected a$ the in
strumentality for publication". A pi
voted to the especial interests and aggran
dizement of any particular men or party,
cannot be independent and impartial in its
conduct.
Several letters have been received urging
the advocacy of certain measures, from
which itio evident, th<*£ the writers have i
dividual objects to accomplish; in other
words (excuse the phrase) have" “axes to
grind.” We positively decline to turn the
grind stones. A word to the wise is sufficient.
triT" The president, we arc very very fre
quently reminded, is “trying an experiment.”
Biit those who would "have the country un
derstand from that phrase that he • looks up-
up his efforts to restore civil government in
the South with indifference, and will lightly
change his.policy, are, themselves mistaken,
or would Receive others. He is determined
that his experiment shall succeed, and will
employ every fair means within his power to
make it a success-- Carl Schurz ( and others,
arc-sent South-on tours of observation, that
the President may have the benefit of views
from tlieir stand-point, and not because he
has the" least idea that they win convince him
of an.error on his part.— Cincinnati Commer
cial, . - •
soldiers and traitorous politicians.”
After these patriotic and conciliatory reso
lutions hadtbeen adopted, senator Sumner,
assisted by. another delegate, a colored cler
gyman from Boston, fried themselves in
speeches of )vhich we give thopurport^They
fear that the poor negro, will be forgotten ;
■his claims as a loyal man be- overlooked by
an ungrateful nation. That we cannot drf bet
ter tlftin “to follow congress in the present
exclusion of Confederates from political pow
er.” That President-Johnson by all means
ought not to be captious and obstinate, but
fgjlow congress in its great word of regene
ration. That as for himself (Sumner) "oth
ers may hesitate, but he will not.” He is de
termined “to fight it out,” if it takes the re
mainder of his life.
The unswerving policy thus to be pursued,
by the great tycoon, Charles ScWNeb, and-
his satelites, is no doubt greatly to be ad
mired. It is just possible, however, tliat the
men of the Southern States, when recon
structed, will join with the democratic-par
ty, aud throw a few stumbling blocks in
he way of this party of “progress.”
President will not “ lightly ehange his poK
cy;” that fce'is“ determined it shall succeed,
and will employ ©very fait means within his
power to ntake it fk success.” But good Lord
deliver us from the reports of “Carl Schnrz
and ethers,’’-who have hcen “ soot south on
fomp- of-observation.” "We may instance,
for example, the late correspondent of the
Qounucrcvil, in this city, as one o( those who,
like Carl Schurz, could .only lock upon any-,
tiling south of Mason & Pixon’s line with
jaundiced -eyes. And with that journal we
agree, that all such prejudiced, sensational
writers wUJ^kil to convince the President he
has erred. Our trust is in the head of -the
nation, and not the -dispatches of officials
Who desire.to" retain soft places, and, there

THE OCTOBER ELECTION.
For the Macon Daily Telegraph.]
Messrs. Editors: Having in' response to a
call made on- .me through the Journal <£•
Messenger, some three weeks ago, consented
to serve in the approaching State convention
if elected, I beg permission to say, that I
have, since that time, seen notbing-to change
my purpose. ... - . .
Being detained in the country by, sickness,
I could not be at the meeting called Jast
Thursday, to speak for myself; I did, howev
er, before leaving request several of my friends
to say, that my name could not be "Used in
the meeting in the event of my, absence. And
in consequence of this request many of my
friends abstained from going to the meeting,
and others, who were present, refused to
vote.
It is to be regretted that some jriends, from
a misunderstanding of fhe facts, caused my
name to he voted for in the .meeting. They,
I trust, will excuse me for refusing to abide
the issue of that nomination.'
In January, 1861,1 was defeated as an an
ti-secession candidate for the convention which
attenipted ti) place Georgia out of the Union.
Whether I was theft right, or wrong, I must
leave others to determine; but the persons
who most actively opposed me then, have
pursued me eycrslrtcp, and now I find them
busil^ nt work again, and for the same pur
pose, to wit: To defeat, me, 'because I teas, and
aip, a Union man. This is “t^e .head , and
front : of my*offending.*•* '<•*»> * +•
With the gentlemen whom they have nom
inated I lntve no controversy. If tile people
of the county thiqk -them better ..qualified
than myself to represent them in the conven
tion, I am content;' but the people of the
county {not a packed caucus)imrat determine
the question. I am, therefore, still a candi
date for the approaching 'Stile cohicntion. \
If elecj^d, I shall use my best efforts to re
store Georgia to her proper position in the
Union, and relieve her, as far as possible,
from the awful calamities which have been
brought upon her in part by the very men
who now so bitterly oppose me." And with
this brief statement, I most respectfully sub
mit the whole matter to. my fellow citizens
for their decision.

THE LADIES AND THE OATH.
In answer to “ Ws” query as to whether
“the ladies are required, to take the oath," we
would state that no one is “requiredV to do so.
There is no compulsion, but, those who -don’t
take it, of either sex, as we understand exist
ing orders, are debarred from sending or
receiving letters, telegrams, or express pack
ages, and are liable, Rt" any moment, to arrest
and trial for treason.
Wc find the above ill the Constitutionalist.
Our understanding of the orders from Gen.
Steedman’b office is the same as expressed
by our cotemporary, and if thc-ladias refer to
the same, published some days ago, thqy will
agree with us m opinion. We expect ere
long to see Judge RiLKyhy another class of
applicants, anxious to renew their allegiance
to the United States Government.

lading to New York. At St. Louis the Cotton is
transferred by the boats to Broad Gaguc, Missis

and, by them is carried to New York without
change of. cars. If Jnppers prefer the route by

it at Nashville and forward it all the way by Rail,
paying accrued charges, without extra expense.
The Nashville & LoniSViile, and the Nashville &
Chattanooga Roads being connected, Cotton ship
ped-by way of Johnsonviile will not change cars at
Nashville.
Rates from Johnsoaville to New York $6 per
bale; from Nashville (all Rail) $10 50, (as we ure
advised.) Parties desiring to reship at Nashville,-
instead of JoknsonviUe, can have option of ship
ping by Steamboat to Cincinnati—“the Cumber

Shippers must consign to Steamboat Agent at
