We invite attention to the advertisement of
this company in another column. It has been
recently organized by.a good many of the lead
ing capitalists of Georgia, upon a very liberal
basis. It is founded upon the mntnal plan, and
a credit of fifty per cent, extended upon pre-
rninms, which indebtedness is reduced every
year by the dividends of the company, and the
balance finally remaining unpaid at the death of
the party insured, (if any,) is deducted from
the amount paid over by the company. It has
all other leading features of the best modern
schemes of life assurance, and we hope will so
far commend itself to our people as to secure a
large business. It offers every reasonable guar
anty of security and fair dealing.
Assessor Belcher— Mistakes Corrected.—
Belcher, recently appointed Assessor of Inter
nal Bevenue in the Third District, was not, as
we stated yesterday, among the members of the
Georgia Legislature declared ineligible on ac
count of color. He was still, np to tho time of
his appointment, a member of the Georgia Leg
islature, and, although reported in the press
dispatch as colored, has every appearance of a
white man, and was in command of a company
of whites in tho Federal army daring the war.
Both Davis and Belcher were held to have less
than an eighth of the African intermixture, and
were left in the undisturbed possession of their
seats in the Legislatnre.
Ose of the Appointees.—Major Gen. Joseph
A. Cooper, Commander-in-Chief of Brownlow’s
militia pepper and salt bandits, was recently ap
pointed Internal Revenue Cdloctor for the
Knoxville District, but was unable to procure
in that city a single signature to his official
bond, and left to hunt np signers in Middle
Tennessee. Grant seems to be in as bad luck
in bis search for honest men as old Diogenes.
Ho has lighted his lamp, hnt the lamp smokes—
the chimney is foul—tho wick crusted—the oil
impnre. Ho can't see with it, and henoe makes
an appointment, os custodian of the public
money, of a man who can’t get an endorser
among nil the Radicals in Knoxville.
ASixoular Ad vesture.—We understand, says
tho Savannah Republican, that, a very valuable
horse was placed on board the steamer Fannie
at Baltimore, for transportation to this city on
her l&st trip, and that on the way the animal
jumped over tho railing into the sea. The en
gine was stopped, and by the energy and skill
of tho officers and crew tho horse was secured
and lifted on board the steamer again without
having received the slightest injury by tho ad
venture.
Aid to the Madison Sufferers.—Tho Federal
Union, of Tuesday, says: The City Council of
MQledgevHle, daring last week, voted to ap
propriate three hundred dollars in provisions for
tho sufferers by the late calamitous fire at Mad
ison, to be inereased to flvo hundred dollars, or
moro, as the exigencies of the case may require.
This was timely and proper action, and meets
the earnest approval of all onr citizens. A part
of the provisions went toward lost week.
The Freight Question in Columbus.—The
merchants of Columbus held another meeting
on the freight question last Saturday night;
bat, as we anticipated, tho Enquirer says tho
discussion amounted to nothing beyond devel
oping the difficulty, it not impossibility, of pro
viding a remedy. The Enquirer suggests that
a sum bo raised by monthly subscriptions to be
employed in subsidizing tho boat line and keep
ing it alive as a check against exorbitant freight
charges.
Tired.—A correspondent of" tho Baltimore
Sun says Grant is unequal to tho task of set
tling with office-seekers; that his health and
temper are failing. In a moment of confidence he
declared to a friond, that if he had had any idea
of what ho was really to encounter, he would
never hare consented to enter into tho business.

Rain in Atlanta.—Tho Constitution of Tues
day says: It has rained almost incessantly
here for thirty-eix • hours—as wo write (eleven
o’clock, a. M.) it is pouring down in a perfect
delnge, with very high wind. Wo are fearful,
the wind veering round to tho North, will bring
ns again the fell destroyer, “Jack frost,” which
we never feel qnite snre has gone into his den
till after the 26th of April
Iron tor the Maoon and Brunswick Rail-
Road.—Two vessels, says tho Brunswick Ban
ner of the 16th inst,, the ship India, and the
barque Dingo arrived in port this week, laden
with iron for the Macon and Brunswick Rail
road. We expect in a short time to report the
arrival of iron for the Brunswick and Albany
Railroad.
The new minister to Guatemala, Silas A.
Hudson, of Iowa, is not a negro, as stated in the
telegrams. He is a white man, and a cousin of
General Grant The New York Sun (Republi
can) says he was formerly a cattle driver, and
is about as fit for a foreign mission as a crow
bar is tor a cambric needle.
Washbcrne's Nominees. — It appears that
nearly seven-eights of tho diplomatic and con
sular appointments sent to tho Senate on
Friday were made by Secretary Fish, over the
prostrate forms of Washbnmo’s nominees who
had been assured by the latter, just before he
retired from the Department of State, that
they were certain of appointment
How can the Controversy be Settled?—
Some of the newspaper correspondents contend
that Savannah beats Augusta to death in pretty
women; and others maintain that Augusta is a
long way ahead in fine babies.

No Proscription on Account of Color.—A
leading Northern paper indignantly demands
why yellow should be a proscribed color.—
White, red, black and copper are appointed to
office, but yellow John Chinaman is left out in
the cold. Down with distinctions on account of
color and race.

Foreign Literature, with a beautiful portrait of
Dean Mibnan; and Putnam tor May, came yester

London dispatches of Monday say:
Lord Stanley, in a recent speech at Glasgow,
said, in reference to the Alabama treaty, that
notwithstanding the failure of the late negotia
tions, “I do not think I can bring myself to
take a glowing view of these relations. For my
part, I have very great faith in the good sense
of the American people- I do not think they
can wish to increase the difficulties by getting
into any fresh quarrels. Whatever happens,
we have secured the main point. We have sat-
tisfied our own consciences, and we have put
onr country unmistakably in the right.
. I will only add that, to my mind, the ques
tions affecting the external relations of the
country—that is, questions which, in their ulti
mate result, may involve the issues of war or
peace—are incomparably greater than others
with which the politicians in onr day have to
deal with. We may quarrel among onrselvM
and make it np again. It probably will uo not
much damage on the one hand if not with much
gaidon the other, but whatever may bo onr feel
ings on the position in reference to new internal
disputes, it is the dnty of all of us, as regards the
outside world, to see onr country show a united
front Certainly if any difficulty should arise,
I should feel it my duty so far as I conscien
tiously could, to endeavor to strengthen the
hands of whoevor might l>e the foreign minister
of the day.
The Times,in an article on the appointment of
Mr. Motley to England, says, it is likely, assum
ing the present Alabama Convention to be set
aside. Hr. Motley will be instructed to open ne
gotiations for any other differing somewhat in
machinery but embodying similar principles.
Should tins be the case, onr Government will be
ready to give the proposals a fair consideration.
Should it, on the other hand, be the desire of
the Americans to keep the question still unset
tled, the British nation having folly manifested
its good disposition, will not feel bound to ini
tiate fresh negotiations in any case. She shall
welcome Mr. Motley not only as an old friend,
bat as one who has the confidence of a really
powerful Executive and of the most powerful
party in the United States. The country ha*
gone to the extreme of concession in the matter
of the Alabama claim*. It has agreed to refer
everything except its own honor to arbitration
and to the judgment of a mixed commission.
It has agreed to givo the Americans, who pro
fess to nave been wronged, every opportunity
to assert their claims, by providing that a com
mission shall hold its sittings at Washington.
Except absolute submission to every demand the
Americans may choose to make, there is nothing
farther that could be considered.
These are very strong expressions, bnt no
more so Than have characterised the entire press
and all the English political circles upon the
matter of these Alabama claims for two or three
years past. It was, in fact, with great difficulty
that the English advocates of conciliation were
able to work the public mind np to the point of
arbitration. What effect the rejection of this
treaty, and the folminations of Stunner and
Chandler, are likely to have, we leave every
reader to determine.
Italian Colony on. tho Georgia Const.
Mr. Joseph Borra, on Italian by birth, bnt a
resident of Virginia, makes the following propo
sition in a letter to the Savannah Morning News
of Tuesday:
Now, sir, I heartily sympathize with the ob
jects of the friends of European emigration, be
lieving that your beautiful country would bo
greatly benefitted by the introduction of labor
ers arid citizens from the countries of Europe,
who would also better their own conditions and
that of their posterity by the change. With this
view, I have to propose that if your people will
dispose of say two or three thousand acres of
good land, ready cleared for cultivation, on St.
Simons, Cumberland, S&palo, St. Catherine, or
any other island on the coast, at a moderate
irice per acre, and upon easy terms of payment,
will engage, at my own expense, to bring a
small colony of Italian emigrants, and to increase
the number from year to year until they-are
permanently settled in their now homes, and in
a condition to sustain themselves; thus found
ing the nuclens of a colony of Italians in Geor
gia, who will bring with them their improved
agriculture, their arts and productive industry,
with the thrift and economy of tho laboring
classes of the old world.
The News soys, upon the authority of Mr.
Borra that it is only necessary to open the way
by forming a pioneer settlement or colony in the
seaboard section of Georgia, to induce a large
influx of emigrants to a region which is so much
better suited to their system of agriculture than
the colder regions of the West or North. He
requests that those papors who favor his object
will call attention to the subject.
Ttac Brunswick Banner anil Po.stollice
Mr. B. C. Franklin, in the Brunswick Banner,
of the lGth, delivers his valodictory as editor of
that paper, of which ho has had charge for a
year. Mr. Franklin seems also to be postmaster
of that incipient commercial entreport; and he
also advertises for sale, “in his postoffice,”
ladies’ fine dress goods, soap, corn and flour,
readymade clothing, breakfast bacon and hams,
crockery, tin ware, boots, shoes, tobacco, shot
and gunpowder, lard, trunks, valises, molasses,
sugar and coffee, percussion caps and so On.
No wonder Mr. Franklin cannot find time to
continue his literary lucubrations in the Banner.
The Provincial Council of Baltimore.—This
Council win open on Sunday, the 25th of April.
The Illustrious Primate, the Most Reverend
Martin John Spaulding, D. D., Archbishop of
Baltimore, will preride.
The Provinco of Baltimore comprises the
Arch-Diocese of Baltimore, which includes the
State of Maryland and towDistrict of Columbia.
Also, it comprises the Diocese of Charleston,
Philadelphia, Scranton, Harrisburg, Erie, Pitts
burg, Richmond, Wheeling, Wilmington, (DeL,)
Wilmington, (N. 0.,) Savannah, the Vicarate
Apostolic of East Florida.
This extensivo Provinco spreads over Mary
land, tho District of Colombia, Pennsylvania,
Delaware, Virginia, North Carolina, South Car
olina, Georgia, and the eastern part of Florida.
The Macon and Augusta Razlboad.—This
road, says the Millcdgeville Federal Union, is
said to be one of the best in tho State. We
passed over a portion of it a few days since,
and, in common with all who travel on it, feel
disposed to say a word in its praise. The run
ning is very smooth, and, notwithstanding the
fast time made on thia road, (and onr clever and
carefnl friend, Maj. Whiting, of the Eaton ton
and Gordon Road, would, no donbt, think it was
a little too fast,) the tired traveler can enjoy his
nap undisturbed by the jolting and bumping
common on most roads. We are glad to learn
that all the arrangements have been made for
the early completion of this road to Mn/wn
Col. B. G. Lockett's Plan of Cotton Grow-
•ino.—On onr first page will be found the sec
ond article of an interesting series, (the first one
having been printed Sunday morning last,)
by the Albany News, upon Col. B. G. Lockett’s
system of cotton planting and plantation man
agement. Messrs. Lockett & Jordan are the
largest cotton planters in the State, and produce
about two thousand bales of cotton annually.
Of course they pursue the business upon a scale
of the most enlightened, judicious and liberal
economy.
Lunatic Asylum.—We learn from Dr. Green,
says the Federal Union, that this institution is
crowded to its utmost capacity. Patients u«n
now be admitted only as vacancies occur. Per
sons desiring the admission of a patient, should
notify the Superintendent, who keeps a careful
record of such notices, and the patient will be
admitted in the order of the application. By all
means correspond with the Superintendent be
fore bringing a patient to the asylum.
The damages done by mice in Maine the past
season can hardly be estimated. Millions of
young fruit trees have been killed, young forest
trees injured and grass ruined. In a Dixfield
orchard containing one thousand six hundred
grafted trees, only about five hundred can be
saved.
Tkeflonititatiensllty or Ih* Filteesth
Amendment.
Latterly the Northern party have begun to
Hiai-ngg constitutional question—a little awk
wardly, it is true—they are new to the business;
and somewhat late. A correspondent of the
New York Times, makes some strong points in
the following, upon the fifteenth amendment:
I turn now to the constitutional points, which
are momentous enough to excite some attention.
I asked how that amendment can be- forced.—
You say, if I recollect, the same as in other
cases of amendment. Bnt do yon recollect any
cases in which an amendment has been enforced?
Have yon enforced the fourteenth amendment ?
And if Georgia refuses to enforce it, what do
you propose to do ? Yon cannot inarch an army
to enforce the Constitution,'where it requires
State action; for the resistance will be negative,
not active. There will be no rebellion, no vio
lation of the laws. Suffrage depends on the
State Constitution, and requires State laws to
enforce it. Suffrage requires time, place, resi
dence, and various circumstances to be deter
mined by State laws. To suppose that all these
are to be determined by Congress would be so
monstrous that I am not prepared to see any
party attempt it, and am perfectly sure it would
overturn any party. It would be as great a
change in onr government as that when the
Roman Consul became Imperator.
You ask me how the State is to resist? Sim-
ly by ris inertia; and that is simple enough.
et a State refuse to act on that amendment,
[and then it is at an end. If yon could get an
excuse for treatingtho State as in rebellion, yon
could do what all the Csesars in the world have
done—march an army in to overturn its insti
tutions. Bnt yon will not have that. Yon will
be reduced to the mandamns of the Supreme
Court; and what is that against a State? I will
tell you what it is worth, exactly. Nearly for
ty years ago, in the case of Worcester vs. State
of Georgia, (perhaps the title is not right,) the
case was decided in Yavor of the Indians and
against Georgia. The Supremo court issued
its process, and Geoigia paid no attention to it,
and tho Court was utterly unable to enforce its
decision; and nothing can enforce a decision of
the Court against a State except by the army of
Itoe United States, which in this case yon can
not employ. The vis inertia of a State is suffi
cient to set the fifteenth amendment at defiance.
Bat I raise another question, and I beg yon to
consider it: Have amendments to the constitu
tion no limits ? Can an amendment to the con
stitution destroy that which made the constitu
tion? It most bo plain as daylight that no
amendment can be made which creates or de
stroys something which was without the bounds
of the Constitution. It is contrary to the mean
ing of the word amendment A thing cannot
bo amended into some other thing. The Con
stitution did not undertake, nor tho State grant
the power, to change their organic elements.
Take, for example, toe State of New York. It
was one of the thirteen original, composed of
certain individual citizens recognized and de
fined by too civil law. Now that was the organic
element of toe Government known os New
York, then an independent State. Now suppose
all tho other States make an amendment to the
Constitution by which three hundred thousand
Chinese are made members of too civil com
munity of New York, and which by tho laws of
New York oonld not be members of the civilj
community—have they any right to do that ?
Can as amendment to the Conrtitntion destroy
toe organic elements of a State and reduce it to
a mere creatnre of Congress ?
The Herald on the Northern Light*.
From tbe Herald of tbe 17fh,j
The bantifid exhibition of the Northern Lights I
witnessed by too inhabitants of Manhattan
Island, on Thursday night last, covered a vast
extent of land and sea. From Nova Scotia and
Canada northward, and Maryland and Virginia
in the Sonto, wo have reports of the splendid
heavenly display. We have no definite report
of its eastern or western bo mi da rv. Within toe
Arctic Circle it may have belted toe globe. On
onr line of latitude (forty-one north) toe exhibi
tion appears to havo been brightest in this Me
tropolitan district; bnt even here it “ paled in
its ineffectual fires ” before the more brilliant
display al Montreal. We have no donbt that too
exhibition was one of surpassing splendor and
sublimity within toe latitudes of Central Green
land and Alaska. These wonderful lights cornel
from the icy regions round the Pole. They are,I
wo may say, phosphorescent and electrical, and]
although they rise above toe earth’s atmosphere,
they reach to toe earth’s surface, and in a strong
current or succession of waves, as in toe air,
they.run along toe ground. We have toe evi
dence of this fact in the working of the various
telegraph lines on Thursday night for several
| horns without toe aid of toe usual artificial bat
teries.
■Onr ides of this celestial illumination is that
[to us it was bnt toe onter edges of a great elec-
| trical cloud drifting down to ns from the icy
laboratory round the Pole. Yet within this
I city, as an observer near the Cooper Institute
[informs ns, at near eleven o’clock p. M., too
central point of the display was exactly over
head. Right overhead there appeared to be a
circular opening in toe luminous vapor which
otherwise seemed to fill toe air, and the color
of this opening may bo described as a deep “in
visible green." Radiating from this opening,
like the rayB of light streaming ont from toe
setting moon behind a hill, or like toe spokes
from “the hub of the universe,” were numerous
luminous lines and bars, and rays, and lights
land shades of different haes, bnt chiefly of a
phosphorescent whiteness, which feebly flamed
till faded out, like the trace of a lhcifer match
on the wait The changing combinations and
dissolving views of this wonderful exhibition
were rapid, yet so soft and delicate that it was
[exceedingly difficult to mark any passing trans
formation. The radii from toe hub were com
paratively short on the south side, extending less
than thirty degrees from toe zenith, while
northward they descended to toe great bank of
|the transparent bnt still dense electrical vapor
which lay around toe horizon.
The radiation referred to shows that this
luminous vapor at the time was all above too
Iwinds of too earth’s atmosphere; for otherwise
it wonld be driven in parallel lines across toe
[sky, or in irregular lines with toe baffling cur
rents of the upper air. That which we have
[described as an opening in toe sky overhead
was perhaps a dense body of electrical elements
from which the rays indicated were supplied.
At all events toe display was exceedingly in
teresting, and its solution has, so far, puzzled
ourprofoundest philosophers. In fact,
There sre more things in heaven and earth, Horatio,
| Than are dreamed of in onr philosophy.
Filibustering in New Orleans.
A Herald Dispatch from New Orleans last
Sunday, says:
‘Preparations are actively on foot in this
vicinity for a formidable and well organized ex
pedition to aid the insurgent Cabans, and there
is no donbt that men are being engaged rapidly
and sworn to secrecy. A number of howitzers
have recently been purchased here and sent to
some unknown destination. There seems to be
no lack of money, bnt so mnch blowing at street
comers and so much pnblicity and gasconade,
that toe matter may drop through from pure
mismanagement. The Government officers
either can not or will not take steps to prevent
toe movement, and no definite instructions can
be obtained from Washington.
“ It is stated that toe command is tendered to
Harry Hayes, an ex-Confederate major general,
who, through his personal popularity among old
soldiers, and his knowledge of Spanish warfare,
coold collect around him in a day’s notice two
or three thousand'veterans; but, although vfery
considerable pecuniary inducements have been
held ont to him, he declines on toe ground that
he is too old and has too good a law practice to
give it np. General Steadman remains the
probable leader. He is brave, but wanting in
prudence and discretion. If he gets off he will
make either a stirring success or a most com
plete failure.
“Collector Cosey, who is a brother-in-law of
the President, says openly he docs not want
to hear or know any thing about expeditions of
any kind, and District-attorney Morgan says his
appeals to Washington for definite instructions
are answered only with vague generalities.
‘ ‘Marshall Heron, who recently returned from
Washington, hints he shall keep np appearances
but do little!”
Reconstruction in Virginia.—The Richmond
(Va.) Whig of Thursday, referring to the action
of toe State Conservative Committee, resident
in Richmond, which assembled after the pas
sage of the late law of Congress in regard to an
election in Virginia, says:
It is no longer a secret, and we violate no
confidence in expressing the conviction that the
action implied unanimous acquiescence on the
part of toe resident committee, in the Walker
ticket. In other words, that there will no Con
servative candidate in toe field. There is no
donbt bnt that this action of toe resident com
mittee will be endorsed by toe country me tubers.
This, of itself, is decisive of the result.
A Sea Monster.
We clip the following from tho Savannah
pnblican of Tuesday:
We learn that Captain Perry, of toe Light
House schooner, who has charge of the buo}^
in this district, discovered on the 5th rest.,
St. Simons, what he supposed to be a dead
monster floating on toe surfarc of toe water,
says that the portion above the water was some
twenty-five feet in length, and fire or :fe ?
height. He estimated toe length of toe head
to be twelve feet. The upper jaw was thrown
back, presenting a month of extraordinary , -
melisions. How many feet of the body
concealed beneath the surface of the waves
captain could not pretend to form an estimate
In its back were three or four grooves running
the entire length of that part of the body which,
was visible. It had fins similar to those of a
whale. The captain states that he saw the same
monster again off Cumberland Sound, and that
the Lighthouse keeper at Cumberland Island re-
ported to bim that it had floated in and out three
or four tides, and that he had “pulled” for it,
but upon a near approach he became fearful
that it was not dead, and therefore thought best
to give it a wide berth.
It is farther alleged that a distinguished nat
uralist, now in city, has offered one thou
sand dollars for the head of the monster, and
that Captain Perry, with his vessel, is now in
active pursuit, and expects to be able to claim
the reward in the course of a few days. If he
should succeed he will not only gain a handsome
reward, bnt be toe means of adding an interest
ing chapter to some valuable work on natural
history.
The Americas Republican of Tuesday says:
Last night the rain fell in torrents, and wo had
a little delnge of onr own. Sewers, gullies and
branches were booming, and all nignt the rush
ing waters kept np a regular cataract noie.—
The vivid lightning and load pealing thnnder
caused many of the timid ones to tremble with
fever and think over their many transgressions.
This morning, the rain ceased and the clouds
commenced shifting, bnt the indications are
that we are to have more rain.
In toe Snmter County Supreme Court, Mon
day, Cornelia McCoy, negro girl, charged with
•noil, was acquitted.
Luke P. Haines -was killed in Americas, last
Tuesday, by a Mr. Smith. Haines was intoxi
cated and assailed Smith with a pair of tongs,
when the latter shot him.
Safety of Liyingstone.—A telegram from
London says:
Accounts of the safety of Livingstone, toe
African traveler, are received. He is reported
to have left Zanzibar in January, for England,
going overland via Cairo.
