ATLANTA, GEORGIA, JANUARY 4. Don’t Leave Georgia. It is with deep regret that we have ob served on the part of our farmers a dispo sition to leave Georgia for the far West. The spirit is not confined to onr State, bnt seems to prevail in all of the Southern States. Wc utter a pleading remonstrance against It. It is true that our political condition is not what wc wish it to be, and it is alio true that the prosperity of our people will never get progressive to its full speed until we get politically stable. But we do contend that there bos been nothing to warrant our citizens in looking for bet ter things elsewhere. »r in giving up the chances Georgia presents now and hereaf ter for Individual wealth and State great ness. Ever since the war, the Southern people have been as it were, bitten with the tar antula of migration and change. Dissatis fied with their Injured homes, they have not realized that all the places In the South and West were nearly in the same condi tion. In most cases emigrants give up homes and the certainty of a living among their friends for the uncertainties of a struggle for bread among strangers and in a strange place. They sell out their house hold •‘fleets at a great sacrifice, and supply themselves where they are gring at a high cost. They spend large amounts of money moving, that if used at home to extend their business?., or-‘Improve their place would bring a heavy practical return. They sacrifice their lands or leave them idle and unprofitable. Tiiey, in many cases, find that they have not bctteicJ their , condition, that they have left congenial neighborhoods and comfortable homes for rough places and wild society, that they have renounced good living for hard and cheerless toil, that they have deprived their children of educational advantages, and that they must drag nut an unpleasant ex istenceor return to their old homes. In ordinary cases they have not the means to return, and are compelled to stay where they are. Having sold out everything and spent tlie money in moving, tiiey are the end of tlie row, anil must remain, lie- cause unable to get away. Let our citizens look well to it before they leave Georgia. Our State presents every advantage to the immigrant. Wc have every variety of resource, ami cle ment of wealth. It is netted with rail roads, and more arc building. Lands arc advancing daily. New enterprises are springing up. The attention of capitalists Is being directed to our prodigious re sources. Why leave then ? Take Texas. Ilicrc are few railroads. Tbe society in the interior is rude. That State does not present one half the attrac tions that Georgia does, in any respect Of those who have gone there from Geor gia, many who arc able to return conic back. Those who can return but don’t, are restrained by pride; But the great mass get out there, find their money gone, and longing for Georgia are forever cut off j~-4kom toeing the deareld State again. Tlio writer Iia3 been over the Western country, and critically examined much of It, besides extending his enquiries to every possible point, and lie saw no Western State that he thought equal to Georgia. We again appeal to our farmers to look well before going. If tlie spirit of wan dering seizes you, and you think yon must go, leave your families, tty it alone for a year, and then come home, and compare what yon hnvc e> pcricnced with what you have, and nine cases out of ten, you will decide that the home you have in Georgia, is far belter than any you can build up in the West in years. A Miss Batham, in Wheeling, Va., called safety by abandonin on iicr seducer, Mr. JIcNnrii, who had ~ promised to marry her, and demanded him to splice. He refused, and she shot him mortally.

Concert of action, by friends of good government, is essential to success, and if wise counsels prevail we can effect that concert. Let us cease this wholesale abuse of those who differ with us on meas ures affecting the interest of the State. Many men are now in the Republican ranks who have been driven there by denuncia- fion. These men can and should be drawn back Into our ranks, and uniting their shield with ours, battle valiantly for the prosperity and honor of the State. Let our Legislators, by a just and liberal policy toward the colored population, dis abuse their minds that we are the enemies of their race. They are a part of our body politic, and if we do our whole duty in pro tecting them by wise and impartial laws, in the enjoyment of their every right, tbe time is not far distant, when Radicals will curse the day they deluded them, with false hopes and falser promises. Legislators! The honor, the dignity, tbe life of your State is in your bands. Let rea- son.not passion, guide your counsels. Let justice to all, regardless of race or color, shape your statutes, and with an eye single to the good of your noble State, so legislate that even your oppressors may see dig nity in your humility, justice in your laws, wisdom in jour counsels. Do this and Georgia, even in her territorial condition, will command the admiration of her sons, if not the approval of her enemies. Tiiovas Hardeman, Jr. I.utc News. A new feature of the New Year’s recep tions of tlie Cabinet officers in Washing ton, was the exclusion of liquor. It Is proposed to organize a Customs Bureau in the United States Treasury De partment. The Internal Revenue receipts of the last six months of 1868, were $70,587,23: of I860, $85,551,030. AH lottery and gift mail matter in the New York Post-offlcclis hereafter to he re turned to the dead letter department. This is the Government plan to break np the business. Judge Richardson, Assistant Treasurer of tbe United States, refuses to withdraw liis resignation, though urged by Grant to do so, and though promised an Increase of salary. This ofllcer can’t be a Radical Such conduct is wholly inconsistent with Radical principles. Portugal and Great Britain have chosen President Grant as an umpire to decide who U entitled to tlie Island of Bolanrd on the western coast of Africa. Cincinnati had last year 3,403 new law suits;2,478marriage licenses;6,151 births 62513 deaths; 4,663 deeds; 3,499 mortgages 712 new houses; and delivered through the Post-office $5,371,000 letters." - Private dispatches to Washington from ’ Cuba, represent the Cuban cause growing daily weaker. The debt of Boston is $23,433,939 an in crease of $5,000,000 in a year. But tbe increase of means on hand to meet tbe debt makes a net increase of $3,000,000. Over 55,699 emigrants passed through Columbus. Ohio,last year, going West; an increase of 3,076. Only 3,733 stopped in Ohio. The Hudson river is reported dammed with ice. The Radicals won’t have the lux ury of ice. They will bo d d in a hotter way. “Historicus,” in the London Times, as sails Secretary Fish’s letter on the Alabama claims. A Hr.

At lanta, Ga.: Business engagements have prevented an earlier reply to your note of the 27tli, asking my opinion upon the pres ent situation of affairs in Georgia, and the ••course the patriotic members of tbe Leg islature should pursue” in the present emergency It is with great diffidence 1 venture an opinion in this dark hour of our history, and I :.ro tbe moie reluctant to give expres sion to that opinion, knowing, as I do, that it is in conflict with that of older and wiser heads. With painful anxiety I have watched tlie action of Congress towards Georgia from its incipient measures of reconstruction, to the last culminating act. which at one blow destroys State’s sover eignty and remands our State, recognized as sncli by the Federal authorities, with all the machinery of government in successful operation, hack to a tnii'tary department, and I have asked arc we not to some extent responsible for our present situation ? Wc have failed to realize tlie fact that Congress is now the three co-ordinate branches of the Government, and that the Executive and Judicial departments arc hut agents for carrying out its edicts when autliorita lively mprtsa«U by n partv oaiu.uk legislative enactment. Ignoring the fact that the Constitution is an obligation of tlie pnst, not binding at present, wc have deluded ourselves with the idea, that its sacred injunctions were now obligatory upon those who have, buried it. •* as a war measure,” and that the idea of reconstructing a State (acknowledged by two Presidents as having fully complied with its enabling act, and by them recog nized as a State, complete in all its tunc tions,) was simply preposterous and ab surd. Acting under this impression, wc have often dared the absorbing branch of tlie Government to override those Consti tutional restraints that our Fathers imagined were thrown around our Na tional Legislature and they have accepted the challenge. Conscious now of the powers assumed by Congress, we should not defiantly invoke the exercise of those powers. They are legislating for party supremacy, and if they fail, it will be because human ingenui ty b powerless to provide •• the ways and means.” No jurist imagines for gne mo ment that the reconstruction measures are constitutional. They are essential to the salvation of the party, hence proper and necessary to be enacted. In the exercise, then, of these Mira-Constitutional powers, it is madness to doty them by threats of vengeauce from an outraged people. The people will bear ail Congress enacts. Quit, tlien.bullying Congress. It b assumed bold ness or mad rashness, for, like the injudi cious animal, we may bellow and throw up dirt,but the great train of events is hurry ing on, regardless of our pawing or noise. Let us look, then, at things as they exist, and act as become inen whose every inter est—social, civil, and political—is at stake, and not attempt to evade them by aban doning tlie field, and thus leave your ene mies “ masters ol the situation.” ■ This brings me to your second inquiry: “What shall the members ot the Legisla ture do?” I am aware some able corres pondents advise'non-action, resign, refuse to take the oath, stay at home. Cui bono t Will this thwart the objects contemplated by those In power? This whole question is in a nutshell. Have the Radicals suffi cient strength to organize the House (a bare majority is a quorum). If so, why resign to prevent what they have the power to do without you? If our numbers are sufficient to prevent the organization, they arc then strong enough in themselves to make a quorum, and can then shape legis lation. Why, then, not remain at duty’s post, and avert as far as possible unwise and ruinous legislation. I can not concur In the opinion that non action is oar policy. With all due deference to distinguished friends, I have ever believ ed many of our troubles can be traced fo the non-action policy of our people in send ing delegates to the Convention that framed the Constitution. It were idle to recall tbe Past only as a guide for the present. Our enemies mean action, and we must meet them on the field prepared to dispute every inch of ground until the conflict is over. There were some Conservative Republicans in tiie Legislature who could uot swallow aU the legislation contemplated by the leaders. Shall we leave them to contend alone, or shall we not strengthen and en courage them by kind counsel and assis tance? But. say some, onr friends North urge us not to take the oath and be driven from the halls of legislation at the point of Washington, Jan. 1.—The representa tives of the Press from Richmond and Pe tersburg have arrived, at the invitation of tlie Washington Joumalsts. Tlie welcom ing speech was deliveretTat 9 .o’clock' this morning, by Col. Forney, and wa3 re sponded to in behalf of the Virginia press by Mr. Gilman, of the Whig. •The President’s’ reception-i-f'hot str numerously attended as on many previous occasions The weather is overcast.

Wells gave a reception which was well attended by ex-officers and citi zens. Colored societies celebrated tbe emanci pation proclamation. They called upon Gov Walker, who made them a speech; glad to to see them to-day; then reverted to the occasion which they celebrate; told them they were his peers before tlie law. and vested with the same rights and privileges, and he, as Governor, would see that these rights and privileges were secured to them would stand by and protect them as far as power laid with him; appealed to them to show by their action that they apprecia ted these rights, and what had been called an experiment in regard to tlie colored people would prove most successful He was followed by Gen. Imhoden, who spoke in the same manner. Tlie speakers were received \yith loud cheers. New Orleans, Jan. 1.—General holiday No markets. Raining all this morning now cloudy, cold, blowing half gale from the Northwest. Tlie Chief Police, Cain, was yesterday committed to the Parish Prison for 21 hours for contempt of the Seventh Dis trict Court, for allowing Gov. WarmOuth to use the Metropolitan Police to prevent Auditor Wickliff from re-occupying the office fti Mechanics’ Institute, from which lie had been ejected by order of the Gov ernor. I'cremptory orders were tssued by the Sixth District Court for Wicklift’ to re occupy the office, while the Fifth District Court enjoined the Sheriff from, disturbing the Governor while in the use of adminis tration and occupation of Mechanics’ In stitute.

A letter from Madrid give accounts of recent interviews between Scnor Ranee' Spanish minister here, and Lord Claren don, in the first of which, the British Sec retary said he had received advices coil cerning tlie Cuban insurrection, which represented it as being very formidable. The Spanish minister assured Lord Clar endon that these accounts eminajed from sources unfriendly to Spain, and wore grossly exaggerated. At a subsequent in terview. Lord Clarendon said that official information received at the foreign office, led to the belief that the Cuban rebellion was declining in strength rapidly. Washington, January 3.—Hoar has re turned. McClellan has gone.- Cuban partisans here deny tbat tbe Junta urge the patriots to abandon the struggle.

There arc no haTsh eonimmcnts upon the pour, tired feet, ho they never so miry, or reprimand ftyj tho soiled and torn garments, niPlack of kisses for the tear-stained face. But let the child ho grown to womanhood, lot her holed from the inclosure of moral ity by the voice of affection, or driven fronr it by the strong scourge of want—what happens then? Do Christian men and wo- rnfcn go in quest of her? l)o they provide all possible help for her return, or if she returns of her own notion, do they receive her with such kindness and delicacy as se cures her against wandering again? Far from it. At tho first falso step she is de nounced as lost; lost, echo friends and rela tives—wo disown you; don’t ever come near us to.disgraco us. Lost, says society, indifferently.
