Externally and in ternally The Mosaic attracts favorable at tention at once. It is beautiful in every particular, rivaling even in general ap- peaiance the best made Northern and English magazines. Its letter-press can not be surpassed. Among the content ? of this, the initial number, of the new enter prise, are found “Astronomy for theMil- lion,”byM. F. Maury, LL. D.; “Naples and Vesuvius,” by Frank Reid;-“Death, a Punishment for Crime,” by James F. Stokes; “The Mont Cenis Railway;” an article ou Dante; one on Bismarck; an other on Baron Von Moltke; one on the Temporal Power; besides quite a number of others upon fresh and interesting topics, ayd all of them more or less thoughtful and readable. The Mosaic is published by F. C. Maury. Subscrip tion $3.00 a year. The Washington correspondent of the BaltimoreSunr, telegraphs the fol lowing to that paper under date of the 1st instant Hon. Charles Hays, member of Con gress from the fourth Alabama district, writes here in a spirit of bitter com plaint over recent federal appointments in that State, and wants to know if there is no Republican in Washington who will represent to the administration that such a course is permanently disreputing the Republican party there, and handing the State, bound hand and foot, over to the Democrats. The letter charges that the present collector of Mobile has already sacrificed the Republicans in Alabama and effected a Democratic triumph, and hopes some step will be taken to prevent the recurrence of such an event. It is growing more apparent every day hat Alabama, in common with some other States, is distressingly in need of more “reconstruction ?” She has coolly and audaciously rid herself of the Radi cal party, and chosen to be Democratic in defiance of Grant’s wishes; and, what is fully as mortifying to the Administra tion, the people persistently refuse to get up a “Ku-Klux outrage,” or furnish other reasons for the shadow of a hint at “martial law,” or other means of enforc ing support of the Radical party. The pain arising from the fact that the State is Democratic, at present, would be greatly ameliorated, iu the estimation of the Radicals, if the Democrats were not so careful in their preservation of law and order. One good, bloody “Ku- Klux” murder in that State now, would be hailed with cheers by the Radicals. If one negro were even soundly flogged, no matter how justly, it would be a delicious Courier-Journal, and other like papers for the benefit of those who declare that the so-called 14th and 15th amendments were fraudulently adopted, but accept them as valid. It pertinently asks if those fraudulent amendments, imposed by “usurpation and force, 5 ought to be looked upon as sacred, and venerated by the American people, the same as the glorious work of our fathers. Who will write the volume on the va lidity of frauds? If there is a reader of The Sun •who had ever been inclined to pronounce “our civilization a failure,” and to be lieve that the Caucassian had “played out,” he need only to be referred to the Macon & Western Railroad.

There are two negro children at Gager- ville, near Burrus & Frederick’s store, as white as any specimens of the Anglo- Saxon race hereabouts. Both their pa rents are as black as charcoal. The wool on the heads of these children bears a strong resemblance to that on the backs of sheep, and about as white. The eyes of one of them is constantly moving from right to left and vice vei'sa, which renders the child very near sighted.

BY PHOEBE CABY. [The following poem is tho last one sent by Phcobe Cary to Harpers' Bazar. The Bazar says: “It. is the song of the dying swan—tender, and sweet, and beautiful."] O, Rosamond, thon fair and good, And perfect flower of womanhood, Thou royal rose of June, Why did’st thou droop before thy time ? Why wither in the first sweet prime ? Why did’st thon die so soon ? For, looking backward through my tears On thee, and on my wasted years, I cannot choose but say, If thou had’st lived to be my guide, Or thou had’st lived and I had died, 'Iwere better fer tc-day.- O, child of light; O, Golden head— Bright sunbeam for one moment shed Upon life’s lonely way— Why did'st thou vanish from our sight ? Could they not spare my little light From Heaven’s unclouded day ? O, friend so true; O, friend so good— Thou one dream of my maidenhood That gave youth all its charms— What had I done or what had'st thou, That through this lonesome world till now We walk with empty arms ? And yet had this poor soul been fed With all it loved and coveted— Had life been always fair— Would these dear dreams that ne’er depart, That thrill with bliss my inmost heart, Forever tremble there ? If still they kept their earthly place, The friends I held in my embrace, And gave to death, alas 1 » Could I have learned that clear, calm faith That looks beyond the bonds of death, And almost longs to pass ? y Sometimes, I think, the things we see Ar6 shadows of the things to be; % That what we plan we build; That every hope that hath been crossed, And every dream we thought was lost, Iu heaven shall be fulfilled. That even the children of the brain Have not been born and died in vain, Though here unclothed and dumb; But on some brighter, better shore They live, embodied evermore. And wait for us to come. And when on that last day we rise, Caught up between the earth and skies, Then we shall hear our Lord Say, Thou hast done with doubt and death; Henceforth, according to thy faith Shall be thy faith's reward. TU*«jNew Departure Claims as Fri&ds Those who are not its ‘Friends. Pendleton and Thurman have spit the Courier- Journal's Radical gag out of their mouths. They will keep pitching into the amendments. It is amusing to notice how the several papers that are interested in the New Departure take this contuma cy. The New York Sun catechizes Thur- !man sharply, while the Courier-Journal says nothing about-him, and contents it self with claiming that Pendleton is all right. The Cincinnati Commercial, how- |'ever, begins to give the New Departure up as an orphan bereft of friends since the death of Yallandigham. The Com- 241 mercial says that he crowded it through the Columbus Convention, but that there is. “a manifest want of enthusiasm over it” in Ohio, where “a very considerable number of steadfast Democrats are as flatly hostile to it as General Jubal Early was to the adoption of a similar platform by the Richmond Convention.” That paper, with the deep interest it always takes in Democratic orthodoxy, is nearly as'much grieved about the stubbornness of the “old leaders” as the Courier-Journal, and like the latter, it thinks there is no hope for the Democracy save in a “wise and liberal platform and leaders like Chief Justice Chase and J.

P .. * In this section, on the Savannah and Ogeechee rivers, the crop is not as good as last season, it having been one of the most grassy seasons ever known; and the two hurricanes injured every crop more or less, The Advertiser of Sunday has this item Mr. Clark, who. was engaged in the cattle and butchering business, rode out on the Ogeechee road yesterday afternoon on horseback about three o’clock, for the purpose of attending some live stock he had purchased. At a point near the forks of the road beyond Cooper’s, his horse stumbled into a ditch, falling heavily upon his rider, injuring, as was subsequently ascertained, the spinal col umn. He was brought into town in great pain and attended by Drs. Read and Smith, whose efforts in his behalf proved of no avail, scions until the last, conversing with his friends, and meeting death bravely and consistently. At a few minutes before eleven life left him. the moon and read a list of the officss which Grant has “divided out as family property,” he would be ashamed to con fess that he had ever been an American citizen. —Exchange. United States Soldiers Turned Ku-Klux. The telegraph tells that a party of sol diers fired upon the citizens of Meridian ou the 31st. One soldier who liapened to be among the citizens was killed. N citizens hurt. Some New England Indy, Mrs. Daniels, we believe—another of the Daniels come to judgment—-has invented a new-fanglecL apparatus for keeping the ladies’ stock* ings up, which is to supersede the time- honored and knightly garter. It may do well enough for those ladies who lack sufficient rotundity of limb, but our Vir ginia women are not deficient in any of the necessary adjuncts that go to make up the perfect mould of form, and can keep their garters on and stocks up with out resorting to any new inventions.— V hat will the Yankees ask us to surren der next?. The garter is an old and cherished institution; and although the elastic invention with tho buckle has bean adopted by many city belles, tho free-boru and unconventional country girls still stick to twine and tape, and other strings—some even using as a tie the primitive wisp of straw. We will have none of this new-fashioned, hip- attachment gearing. We are true to our ancient ties. It is a direct assault upon our civilization, a blow aimed at otir gartered rights; and we will resent it while we have a leg to stand upon.— Ladies be true to your stockings. Un- f Sri the banner of the garter, and inscribe upon it that grand motto of tho grandest order of .knighthood ever established— “Honi soit qui mal y pense"—and there is not a man, young or old, in Virginia but will rally round the flag, and shed his last drop of blood in defence of the gar ter rights of woman, and cry “Down with Yankee hip-oeracy!”—Richmond En quire)'. Wofl'orcl College, S. C. We have just received from a friend a catalogue of the officers, trustees and students of this Institution. It is loca ted at Spartanburg. From tho showing before us, it is not only ably presided over, in the person of Dr. Ship, D.

Benjamin Wofford in 1S50—whoso name it bears—and is under the control of tho S. C. Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church South. Bishop Wigktman, we see, is one of the Trustees.

M. Wilkinson, one of their em ployees. It seems that Mr. W. was at tempting to repair the feed belt of the mill by passing his leg through it, and before taking his leg out, called to the fireman to “go ahead,” which he did, and the belt caught his leg, winding him around the shaft, tearing off the leg be low the knee, and then tearing out the thigh at the hip. He died in about five minutes after becoming extricated. De ceased was from Twiggs county. We are now in possession of reliable data from the whole of Southern and Southwestern Georgia, relative to the condition of the cotton crop, and it our painful duty to report a disastrous failure. This is no sensational announce meut, and is not based upon doubtful in formation. The best sections of this portion of the State cannot possibly reach two-thirds of an average crop, while the poorer sections will scarcely exceed oue- third. The acreage of the latter being much the largest, the plain deduction is weak-kneed and unthinking Democracy and is a most terrible thorn in the flesh of Radicalism. Deal gently, Mr. Steph ens, but firmly, with our wayward breth ren, “they know not what they do,”— they know what is right to be done, but have not the necessary intelligence and firmness to do it, until they are first di rected. The flashes of your sun-beams are giving that direction. Democracy is, everywhere, growing into a very Sampson under its life-giving influence, while Radicalism is loose at every- joint and rattles as it walks. “Let trath and false hood grapple—truth has never yet been worsted iu a free and opon encounter.” —Fayette [Miss.)
