We are •any: we would have liked to introduce hia. especially as we learn that the Honor able (God save the mark!) Salmon P. Chase and his brother, Prod. Douglas Chase, have appointed him to run the eburehes in Alar nan. Well, we imagine it better eou One can net ightvrith a ebianey sweep without get ting blanked, or ploy withs poppy without bin fooo linked. He is after all on ly the poaperatiee of a puppy, as pronounced In Spanieh alky—eon of a Beeeher. We agroo with the Union in eondemning the nee of eooh language by a Southern journalist. is wrong in itself, discredits bk a the dignity of the press, and unjust to Mr. Beeeher. This gentleman has ever been a consistent oppoaer of slavery, and, as nook, baa said and dona many things calcu lated te impreae the South with a belief of bia implacable hatred of her people aud in stitutions. Bat it should be borne in mind that he wae the ftret to speak in oar behalf and urge a universal amnesty. Besides this, Mr Beeeher does not belong to that low or der of foaatioa who, without intelligence, are impelled to opposition solely by the in stincts of a bitter end ignorant prejudice. Ha ia a man of high intellectual attainments, prominent among tko loading Divines of the North, and one to whoaa opinions, however much we may dissent from them, no incon ■dtrabk weight of importance attaches. To apply the above quoted language of our Alabama ootemporaty to sueh a man, is not of serious eonseqaenee to the party assailed, it is true, but it betrays either ignorance or e culpable disregard of the amooities which should characterise hightoned, honorable pram controversy. For Heaven’s sake let not the Southern press degrade itself by adopting the pot-honse slang and low vitu peration of Northern radical journalism. There sen be no excuse for the use of Buoh harsh expletives, for the man to whom they would justly apply, would be unworthy of journalistic notice. Rblxasx or How. A. H. Stxpuxms ame Othbbs. — The Augusta papers contain tel egraphic information of the release from prison, on qmrole, of Messrs. A. H. Ste phens, Geo. A. Trenholm, of South Caro lina, Judge Campbell, of Alabama, and ex Gov. Clarice, of Mississippi. The news of Mr. Stephen's release will be particu larly gratifying to the people of Georgia, and will, we doubt not, tend to promote the spirit of harmony and reconciliation which is gradually possessing the minds of our people. By this act of clemency, too, the President will have strengthened his own hands for the work of reconstruction, aa Mr. Stephens will, doubtless, give it the aid of his great mind and personal popu larity. Upon the whole, we look upon this event aa an indication of brighter and happier times for the South and the entire country. Atom!.—ln a recent message, Mayor May, of Augusta, computes the immedi ate debt of that city, including bonds past and coupons ior interest due on bonds, at $150,000, which amount, be state®, is covered by taxes due the city. As to the bonded debt not due, the Mayor assures the public there need be no apprehension, as the city has ample property to pay all its debts, even it that property were thrown upon the market in its present depreciated condition. Referring to the noble charities of Au gusta, tbs Mayor says, ratioD* are issued weekly from the “Purveying store” to five hundred families. He suggests tbs construction of a levee to protect the city from the disastrous ef fects of freshets. Also the rescinding of the tax of $1 per bale on cotton brought to the city. A.together, the message may be taken as a favorable exhibit of the condition of our meter city, for which she is probably not a little indebted to the administrative abilities of the Mayor himself.

If people vv(Hild be at hail the pains to procure happiness which tli«*y tak# to ren iimii i jjjnlwirjMiJMf ** r more agreeable. It is singular what ideas of happiness prevail in the world. Most pereous seek its attainment, not in what they have, but in what they have not im agining those to have it in greatest perfec tion who possess the greatest amount of worldly gear. This is a, lamentable mis take, the lessons of life should teach. Ihe happiest people we have ever known were amoog the poor, or moderately wealthy classes. It is not so much in the amount of our possessions, as ia the use we make of them, that happiness oouwists. The millionaire may be, and frequently is, a miserable man, while the beggar is com paratively happy. Happiness is content ment, but perfect happiness is unattainable on earth, because of man’s transgressions. The same spirit of discontent which mars the happiness of men now, was the one which prompted original sin. The garden of Eden, with all its glories and blessings, failed to satisfy our first parents’ craving after the unattainable. This Paradise, with all its rich treasures of animal and vegetable life, its gorgeous pictures of earth and sky, of running streams and for ests green, its fruits and flowers, its sun gilt hills and shady vales, its health-giving zephyrs, freighted with the fragrance ol Nature’s choicest plants; this heaven on earth, where angels might have dwelt in bliss, was rendered the discontented abode of man, because, of all its rich pos sessions, the fruit of one tree alone was forbidden him. With everything to ren der him happy, Adam became miserable himself, and entailed misery upon the world, to gratify a vain desire for some thing he needed not. As with Adam, so with all who have descended from him. We imagine that happiness consists in the attainment of something we do not posses, when indeed we have that which, with contentment, can make us happy. With the terrible exam ple and fate of Dives before them, men will persist in the delusion that wealth is happiness, and so wear out their lives and burthen themselves with care in its pur suit. Now we imagine that, even in life, Lazarus was a happier man than the proud, arrogant upstart who refused him even the crumbs that fell from his table.— And why ? Because the jK>or, despised and grievously afflicted beggar possessed a source of happiness which the riches of Dives could not purchase— contentment. Contentment predicated on the assurances of Him who has promised an eternity of bliss to them who make His word the standard of their faith, and Ilis service the measure of their duty. Neither the possession of riches nor im munity from pain constitute real happi ness. We have seen the poor and the af flicted with the light of a joy beaming from their countenances, which nothing but a God-given contentment could have inspired. We do not say that all men can be Christians, but we do believe that no real Christian can he seriously unhappy; and we have often wondered that, iD the great contest after happiness, there are so comparatively few who seek its attainment through so eertain a channel. A clear conscience, a contented mind, and a firm faith in the protecting care of Him who notes even the falling of the sparrows, are the true sources of happiness, and these the poor may have equally with the rich. The Christian virtues are essential to hap piness, and knowing this, it is remarkable that the world’s energies are directed to its attaiment by every other means than these. Show us a contented man, and we will show you both a happy and a Chris tian one. Bo ends this moral homily, inspired by that little imp, the editor's evil genius, who, lacking the contentment of which we preach, rondel's himself and us unhappy by an unceasing demand for “more copy.” or a letter received here, says a Washington dispatch, from un officer of the 15th colored troops, on duty on the Rio Grande, opposite the Mexican town of Rinosa, says Cortinas and his thieving band were there the other day, and levied a tax to the amount of 8*2,000 in gold. “Corti nas is looked upon by the respectable por tion of the inhabitants as nothing more than a guerrilla and thief, but he has so large a number of adventurers with him that it is policy to humor linn. Since we have been in Texas he has captured two Mexican boats, and has them tied up on the Texas side of the river. The author ities winked at it. From what I cun see, there is still r doubt in the minds of the intelligent portion of the Mexicans as to what to do. They say, unless the United States take the matter in hand, it will be impossible for them to undertake to drive out the invader; but they are in hopes that the sending of our troops down here means something, and they are very kind to us. JC3TA young man named William Bloomfield, near Akron, Ohio, had some difficulty with his sweat-heard, Miss Alice Mann. He took her out riding in a bug gy, drew a pistol and shooting himself through the head, fell a corpse across her lap. C3TThe steamer Bosphorus arrived at Boston on Thursday, with about two hundred male and female factory operatives from England, brought over by agents. The emigrants arc mostly from Lanca shire, and were of excellent appearance. One man had a wife and thirteen children. JdST’Hon. T. E. Chambliss, who wishes to represent Virginia in the next Congress, says: “The great primary cause of the late war can be traced to the infidel prin ciples of Mr. Thomas Jefferson.” BY r I ELBGRAPH.

New York, Oct. 13.—The eteamerD. H. Mount, from Jacksonville, Fin., has arrived here. Tho Union contradicts the report of 'he prevalence of yellow fever ia that oity. Judge L. L. Long, in accepting the noaina tioa of the Btate Convention, nrgea the ac ceptance of the situation, letting by-gonee bo by gones, and union in future be one. The steamer Grenada, from Charleston, 11th, has arrived. New Orleans papers to the 7th oontain the following items: Brig. Gen. Baird, who Supercedes Mr. Conway at New Orleans in the management of the Freedmen’s Bureau received his nom ination from the President himself, not from Gen. Howard. The fact in this connection is quite important. Cotton at Jefferson comes in briskly. The Shrevesport South Western, of the 27th ult., says the receipts of cotton for a few days previous had been light, owing to the exhorbitant prices of freight in New Orleans. The Wertz Trial. Washington, October 14.—The Werta commission reassembled to-day. Judge Ad vocate Chipman made some remarks exone rating Dr. Mudd from the charges made against him by witness Delby yesterday that he Mudd in two instances removed his thumb from the arteries of prisoners so as to allow the blood to spirt in the faoe of the Doctor assisting him and laughed at it as if it was something fanny. It was not his, Chipman’s, intention nor that of the oonrt to attach blame too improperly to anybody. Col. Chipman then offered in evidenoe the consolidated return of Andenonville Prison ers dated September 11th, 1864, with the view of renewing the idea that Werts was ab sent during the month. During the proceedings Baker made re marks to which Chipman replied that the counsel had assumed an a faot that which was not true. Baker said if the truth did not show the fact to be as he stated, he would not ask another question. Col. Chipman—The burden is on ths counsel to show it. Baker said the Government had refused to subpoena Mr. Bowles. Col. Chipman said that was false. Gen. Wallace here interposed, and said the controversy must close. Baker—l ask court— Gen. Wallace—The explanation has gone far enough. Take your seat. Baker resumed his seat —I wish to ask the oourt a question. 1 will oomot the statement outside. Gen. Wallace to Mr. Baker: Youroourse is becoming intolerable. Do you wish to proceed with case B ? if lam allowed the same privilege the government is. Judge W yan has been ordered to go on with the examination of witness B. Ido not diso bey the order of the court. Tho Judge here subsided and the examination was re sumed. The witness then testified that he was one of a delegation of aix persons ap pointed to come to Washington and present a petition to the U. S. authorities for an ex change of prisoners. Gen. Winder and Werts assenting to the errand. Chipman ob jected to this, there was no evidence to show that the original petition ever reached the (J. S. authorities. B. said so far from con spiring, that Wertz sent prisoners to the U. S. government to effect an exchange. The court was cleared for deliberation and decided to sustain 001. Chipman’s objec tion. The Burnt District. That our country friends and such oi our citizens as do not come “down town” may have some idea of the rapidity with which the “Burnt District” is being re built, we have jotted down some of the im provements in progress: On Main street, between Eighth and Thirteenth, thirteen bouses have been built and are occupied, while thirty-two others are being pushed rapidly to completion. Most of these are substantial brick build ings, and among them are throe banking establishments—Tho National Bank ol Virginia, corner ol Eleventh and Main streets, Lancaster & Co’s., opposite the old Exchange Bank, and Purcell's, corner of Main and Thirteenth streets—each of which will be very handsome structures when completed. Most oi the houses re ferred to have iron fronts to the first story, and are built with the design of being made four stories high, though some of them will not for the present be roofed in over the second story, the remainder of the building to be added hereafter. On Cary street five buildings, all briek but one, have been completed and are oc cupied. Nineteen others are being built The three tenements being erected corner of Cary and Thirteenth streets by Messrs. Harvey, Armstead, & Williams, will be one oi the handsomest business houses to be found in any city. On Fourteenth street two iron front tenements of four stories are near comple tion, and twelve others, all brick, are going U P- m On Thirteenth street one building is completed and seven others progress ing. On Twelfth street two wood tenements have been finished, and one handsome brick house of two iron front tenements is under way. On tenth street a handsome coach shop and Snyder’s machine shop, connected with his foundry, are almost ready for oc cupation. Two buildings on Bank street are near ly finished. Thus we see that in the “Burnt District” twenty-two buildings have been rebuilt and occupied, and eighty others are in various stages towards completion—all of them used or to be used for mercantile purposes. This statement does not include premises where work has been begun cleanng out foundations, or £he number of houses be gun and completed on the basin bank. We think that the amount of work which, even from our imperfect showing, appears to have been done by our people in the tast three or four months is sufficient to establish their claim to do common de gree of energy and enterprise.— Richmond New Adrerisemente.
