The Supreme Coart of Georgia
Meet, in Atlanta next Monday. The cases from
Chatham come in as fourth on the docket, and
there ore fifty-nino case, before they will be
reached. It wiU probably be the third or fourth
week in the session before the White eaae from
the Eastern Circuit comes up. This White case
is the celebrated black case. It involves the
question of the eligibility of negroes to hold
office in Georgia, and will arrest the attention of
the whole State. It will settle the point one
way or the other. It is true the Constitution
make, the Legislature the judge of the qualifi
cation of members, bnt it is also true that the
authoritative and constitutional interpretation
of the law muat ultimately decide the question.
The Cincinnati Southern Railroad.
The Atlanta Intelligencer of Saturday con
tains the following special to Gov. Bullock:
Lhypuman, June 4, 18C9,
Chattanooga, by unanimous vote of Council,
declared the terminus to-day. - i
[Signed] W. H. Hi.Er.isoy, Chairman.
The contest was between Chattanooga and
Knoxville, and there was originally a tie vote
between the two places. . Bnt good sense has
prevailed, and Cindnnali will como down
straight into the bowels of tho land, and find
her market in the great cotton region, instead
of carrying her produce, like coal to New Cas
tle, to Knoxville, in the heart of a great grain
and produce country. It is a wonder to us that
there was any delay in coming to a decision.
Furthermore, Cincinnati at Knoxville would
have been out of line to port. At Chattanooga
her produce and merchandise can find conveni
ent outlets at Charleston, Savannah and Bruns
wick, which last will be tho grand point of ship
ment of produce to the West India ports. The
Intelligencer attributes tho unanimous decision
to Oob Halbert, who went to Cincinnati as soon
as he ascertained there was any difficulty.
;; V Affair* In Atlanta.
In Atlanta all deportments of trade and occu
pations complain of dullness and scarcity of
money. Railroad men are arranging for vari
ous schedules for summer travel northward.
By one from Atlanta from New York, via Au
gusta, Columbia, S. 0., and Charlotte, N. CL,
the trip will be made in 47 hours.
CoL E. n albert is arranging a schedule via
Louisville, Xy., and the Pemmjlvniiia Centre],
by which the trip will bs made in 67 hour, from
Atlanta to Now York, with one change of care
only at Louisville.
The National Hotel is still kept finely by Mr.
E. B. Fond, and the wants of the guests of the
house are attended to after the moet approved
stylo. Glad to find they use a better quality of
drinking water there than formerly.
At P. W. J. Echols' agricultural implement
atore is to bo seen what is called the “Needlo
Gin." It is the invention of a Mr. Bcattor-
good, of Georgia, in I860. A circlo of needles
supplants the saws. Thirty circles of needles
will do the work of fifty saws. It is said besides
making tho lint of the first quality, the gin i,
adapted to the finest varieties of the staple. .
Dzclxxzix WnxiT.—The Romo Courier of
yesterday says there has been a very consider
able decline in wheat in this market in the last
few days. A No. 1 article of red now command
ing only $1 30.
The aamo paper says: “After a dry spell of
some two weeks, on last Thursday we had a de
lightful rein—a real good season—that fairly
makes the growing crops and all vegetation
laugh for joy. There was quite a little dash of
hail, at first, with the rain, but wo have heard of
no very serious damage from it.
There is to be a big reaping match at Cave
Spring on tho 10th, and the Buckeye, Russell,
World, Ohio and Excelsior machines are to
thow their speed.
Thi Political Hosrzotf.—The Bov. Profes
sor Furman, of South Carolina, an eminent di
vine and scholar, in a letter addressed to his
daughter, residing in New Orleans, dated May
19th, says:
“Tho present aspect of our political horizon
is portentous, I fear, of coming evils. The
foundations have already been destroyed. The
social fabric has tottered and fallen, and from
amid its ruins we seo every stronghold of lib
erty assailed by tho pickaxe and the battering
ram. Anarchy must ensue. Civil commotion,
its usual accompaniment, must thon dash the
elements of society with violenoe against each
other, and tho whole terminate probably in tho
establishment of an oligarchy or an imperial
government.”
A srixs-ntD and comfortable trip .to tho North
is by way of Savannah and Philadelphia Steam
ship Line—fine ships, excellent accommodations
and cheap as any other route. Tho gre&t ad
vantage of this trip consists in being on smooth
water, twelve hours, which time would be
spent on thorough ocean in going to New York.
By this quiet sail you regain strength and feel
refreshed on landing. An excellent route for
ladica, and every one will find it expeditious
'and aafe.
Niw Law Finst—George T. Bartlett, Esq.,
of Montieello, Georgia, an attorney of several
years' practice and experience in the oonrta of
Goorgia, has associated himself with A Proud-
fit, of Memphis, and opened a law office in
this city. By reason of industry, attention to
business, and skill in the law, we have no doubt
these gentlemen will have a fair share of the
business in their line.
The Swath a* a Bread Coon try.
Nrw Wheat.—New wheat was ground at the
Palace Mills yesterday. It turned out fine look
ing flour. This would be a moderately good
bread country, if it had half a chance.
[Columbus Enquirer.
This is a good text for an interesting dis
course, if one had timo to hunt up the facts.—
We suggest to some of our correspondents who
have more leisure’ to look up the statistics and
compare the actual productive capacity of the
two sections. The result, we are very sure,
would surprise people who are accustomed to
consider the production of breadstuffs in the
Southern States as something a little outside of
a tine natural economy—as more or less a strug
gle against nature; whereas, on the contrary,
the climato of the so-called cotton States, is a
better one for wheat, than tho wheat growing
States so-called by eminence. That this is actu
ally so, is demonstrated by the fact that Southern
flour is better than Northern flour. The point of
relative quality settles the contest.
Now, wo are not going to say that an acre of
barren Georgia upland, scratched over and sown
broadcast with a thin seeding, as we commonly
dolt; is going to rival in production an acre of
rich Ohio, Illinois, or Minnessota bottom land,
cultivated as it should be. That would be ab
surd; But we believe actual investigation
would show a far less difference in the general
average yield than is commonly supposed. We
are riot disposed to admit that the actual differ
ence, under all existing disadvantages, is two
bushels an acre. We may be wrong, but this is
our impression. , •
Next, we mean to express the opinion that
the same labor and expense on tho common up
lands of Georgia will produce a larger quantity
of wheat than upon- a similar grade of lands
farther North, and a better article.
Another point, which maybe accepted as true
beyond controversy, is that in general, the
Southern lands are far more easily tilled and
therefore a greater area will be covered by an
equal amount of labor and expense.
Fourthly, we believe the Georgia climate is
far better adapted to the production of wheat
than even that of Ohio, and the crop is less lia
ble to disaster.
Fifth, with firet-rete tillage—such as it is the
real interest of Georgians to practice and bestow
on all crops, we can produce a heavier yield per
Sere than can be made in any of those Northern
| Sixth, we believe if two farmers of equal ca
pacity, skill and capital were to start out to pro.
dace wheat for a aeries of years—the one in
Georgia and the other in Ohio or New York, or
in any other place not provided with an extraor
dinary capital of inexhaustible virgin soil, the
Goorgia wheat grower would beat his competitor.
'' With these views we look upon tho South, not
as “a moderately good bread country,” but as
naturally the best bread country on the conti
nent All ahe needs is intelligent labor to vin
dicate this opinion.

From a dispatch sent by General Cespedea,
President of the Republic of Cuba, to Mr. Mo
rales Lomus, Minister of that Republic to this
country, dated in Guaimaro on the 16th nit, wo
extract tho following:

On the opening of the session, Hossrs.fAgra-
monte and Zambrana presented a project of a
provisional constitution, based upon the consti
tution of this country, to be effective during
the war. Its articles were discussed one by
one, and approved with a few unimportant
modifications.
General Cespedea promises to send on a copy
of this fundamental law of the republic.
It recognizes the equal rights of all men, irre
spective of race or color, and establishes com
plete independence of tho three great powers of
tho nation. The legislative power is declared
to reside in a House of Representatives, elected
by all citizens over twenty years of age. The
conststntion farther divides tho island into four
States, each of which shall bo equally repre
sented in the Hooso of Representatives. These
four States are'called the Eastern, Camaguey,
the Cinoo Villas (five towns), and the Western.
The executive power shall be vested in a
President, who shall be respdoeiblo to the Cham
ber Representatives, and it shall be the duty of
this latter to elect both the President and the
General-in-Chief of tho army. Tho President
shall name four Secretaries of State to assist
him in his duties, whoso nominations shall be
approved by tho House.
A special law si
The Owen Thomas Will Case.—Judge Wor
rell pronounced a decision in this caso on
Thursday, revoking the will. The case goes to
the Supreme Court. .<
A correspondent of ours has been reading the
Spectator so closely that he has imbibed the
style and ideas, and discourses so nearly in the
same vein that the difference is immaterial. We
like the piece, but do not wish to involve our
selves in a dispute abont its paternity.
Hahatonzs the fuze of a man's head are said,
by the Columbus Index, to have fallen in Noxu
bee oounty, Mississippi, on the 12th instant.
The same paper says: “ Wherever the tornado
of frozen missiles touched a field, universal ruin
followed.”
tentional, and perhaps unavoidable, breach of
faith with General Jordan has, therefore, fol
lowed : and having been brought to that officer's
knowledge cn our landing, does not appear, as
might have been expected, to meet the hearty
acquiescence of a man trained, as he has been,
in the jealous punctilio of West Point.
General Jordan is not likely to consent to
play Chief of Staff to Quesada. The matter
will, I hope, be compromised by his assignment
to the War Department as its military assistant,
organizer and adviser. He appears to think, I
suspect, that Lis duties will not be'those of the
field; though his men, not being very well
adapted for civil service, will object to be led to
battle under any Cuban. Herein we fear some
little difficulty at the start, but committed as we
are to the struggle, that difficulty will very soon
vanish when the enemy comes within reach of
our rifles. We have sent out part of our force
to collect transportation.
They came, unexpectedly to both, upon a
small body of Spanish troops placed as a guard
on a neighboring property, but very soon per
suaded the Dons to part company with them at
an unceremonious speed. Teams are being
brought in for the removal of our material to
the headquarters of Cespedes. Our communi
cations with him have been opened, and already
have we received visits from some ragged and
hungry looking patriots, who are said in our
camp to hold the rank of Generals. I have no
more to add than to tell yon, in conclusion, that
all so far has prospered; that we are in fine
health and spirits, and for the time safe from
garroting, behind some pretty works mounted
landward and seaward, with six very neat look
ing field pieces.
Nzgbo Disturbance bIOm— Cocstt
We are permitted to make the following extract
from a letter from a gentleman ifi Elbert county
to his son in this city. The letter is dated 31st
May.
“There is a report in Elberton of a threat
ened insurrection among the negroes at Lexing
ton, Oglethorpe county, but that it was sup
pressed before any damage was done. A negro
gave notice that the blacks threatened on a cer
tain night to kill some of the most prominent
citizens of the place, and then fire it; but the
timely information put the people on their guard
and the negroes did not rise. A warrant was
issued for the arrest of the leaders. One of
them refused to surrender to Wm. Edwards, the
officer, and drew his gun. Edwards then shot
him through the body, and he fell dead, and is
still laying by tho roadside. I have net heard
that any of them have been arrested.”

Behind on Coon.—The local of the Telegraph
yesterday spoke of somebody who had “a mess of
green com for dinner last Thursday,” and claim
ed this os “the first of the season for this sec
tion.” We advise the local and his friend to
buy a first class ticket in Noah's Ark. The
writer had green com week before last, and
never said a word about it because ho knew his
crop was backward. Many others are in tho
same condition, but are afraid to speak because
thoyare ashamed of their gardening. Green
com, indeed—perhaps somebody will boast
about a mesa of green peas. Mr. Local—green
com and green horn.
The Bailet Springs.—Invalids and pleasure-
seekers are cited to the advertisement of the
Bailey Springs, in our paper this morning.—
The proprietors, Messrs. Ellis A Co., have made
ample arrangements for tho promotion of tho
comfort of their guests. Tho waters of their
Springs are well known for their efficacy in
dropsy, scrofula, dyspepsia, diseases peculiar to
females, and all diseases of tho skin and kid
neys. The rates of board are moderate.
The State Department bos received informa
tion to the effect that the Brazilian and Argen
tine authorities who control the La Plata below
Ascension, have intercepted Minister McMa
hon's dispatches to this Government. McMahon
was at Ascension on April 1st, and ascended the
river and joined Lopez. The State Department
will shortly call the attention of the Argentine
confederation to tho fact of the intercoption of
the dispatches, and demand that tho practice be
stopped. .
A T"”- is before the Canadian Parliament re

demned on the sol^evidence of the female.
. shall boenacted'for the creation
of the judicial power, which shall at all times be
perfectly independent of the other two branches
of the government.
Somo slight discussion, it appears, arose on
the selection of a national flag. Tho one that
Cespedea raised at Yara was not identical with
the ono used on previous occasions by Lopez,
Aguero and others, which last one (the same as
displayed in this city) was finally agreed upon.
The flags used at Yara and Bayamo were how
ever. ordered to be ; reserved m the House of
Representatives and considered property of the
new Republic.
On the following day, the 11th, ropresenta-1
fives held their first session, and elected the
Presidents and Clerks of the House. When or
ganized, they unanimously and by acclamation,
elected General Cespedes as President of tho
Republic, and General Quesada as Commander-
in- Chief of the forces. The Secretaries of the
various departments were chosen and entered
upon their offices on tho following day.
General Cespedes, in his dispatch, adds: “The

Heights or the Bat op Nipe,)
Cuba, May 12th. j ■
Tie expedition of which yon have been for
many weeks past a confidant, was brought to a
successful consummation on yesterday. We
arrived here after having sefely evaded Spanish
cruisers, and made good our landing by mid
night of yesterday. As yon were aware, the
General’s studies of the charts and topographi
cal mapsjof this port having been earned ont
in New York, under consultation with eminent
engineers, our commander was prepared, on a
very brief reconnaissance, to select o position
of defence without delay. To cover risks of
movement on the part of the enemy, he threw
up some excellent works, and, with the expe
rience of our veterans of the army of the Po
tomac in the nse of the spade, we were very
soon enabled to store onr material behind de
fences which onr small force of men, “tried in
fire,”-can make good against ten times their
number.
I The force which we had intended to bring
with us you are aware of. Without stating the
number, which you already know, I may add
that it is, in fact, but about two-thirds of that,
seeing that at the eleventh hour the courage of
some of the men enlisted leaked ont, like that
of Bob Acres, “at their fingers’ ends.” The
force actually landed is, however, formidable in
its compactness, experience, and dare-devil
bravery—Americans, Germans, Irishmen, Eng
lishmen, some of whom have undergone “the
baptism of blood” from Chattanooga to Atlan
ta; others who have breasted the tempest of
battle from the Wilderness to the FiveJForks!
General Thomas Jordan is, as you have been
aware for manv months, our commander. He
is a native of Luray, in the valley of Virginia,
and was a captain in the old army of the United
States. He was, during the war of sections,
chief of staff to General Beauregard. His en
gagement with the Junta of New York makes
bin, second in command to the former General-
in-Chief of the revolution, Cespedes. Before
his arrival, however—deferred, aa you are aware,
by the miscarriage of his former expedition at
Ragged Island—a change had taken place in the
State of affiairs here, and Cespedes having
been made President, his second in command
is in fact the present General-in-Chief, Quesada.
