Savannah News and HeraM. -- BY S. W. MASON. IV. MASON, ....Editor, \V. T. THOMPSON Associate Editor. Official Paper of the City LAR6EST CIRCULATION IN THE CITY AND COUNTY THURSDAY, JUNE Si, 1S66. To oca CocKTBY Fbiends.—As much interest is It throughout the country in regard to the pros pects of the cotton and other crops we will be grate fnl to our planting friends and others in the Interior for information on that subject. Those who have op portunities for obtaining valuable information in regard to the growing crops, the working of the free- gbor system, and kindred matters, of general interest, ter a favor by communicating the same to ue. THE DUTY OP ALL GOOD CITI ZENS TO REGISTER. argument is needed to convince our , that every citizen of Savannah, not he property owners and tax payers, ery one who makes our city his liomc- bls identified with its prosperity, is fo ld in its good government. It is n of all citizens to have a voice in action of municipal officers, and it is heir fluty as good citizens to make their in fluence felt in the adoption and enforcement of such laws and regulations as will advance the best interests of the city and promote peace and good order. As a condition pre cedent. however, to a participation in the city elections and the city government, it is necessary, under the existing laws, that ah voters shall register their names with the Clerk of Council within the timo specified. This is a duty which no one who feels an in terest in the welfare of the city, and who is desirous of assuming his full share of the responsibility and of enjoying all the privi leges of citizenship, should neglect. We desire to urge this matter upon the attention of our citizens, and in order that none may be mistaken in regard to their duty and their 1 ights, we publish from ^the digest the fol lowing section of the law defining who an nual i fled as voters, and who are entitled to register as such a “4740.—All persons shall be qualified to vote at elections for Mayor and Aldermen of the city of Savannah who are citizens of the United States, who have resided in the State for one year immediately preceding the elec tion, and continued to do so up to the time of election, and within the corporate limits of Savannah for one month immediately pre ceding their registration, and for four months before the election, who have attained the i of twenty-one years, and have paid all axes or have in their own right sufficient ite 'to satisfy any tax executions which . against them; who shall have (urns required by the ordinances have been registered accord- istrv book is now open at the Sea,’ and the names of voters will be registered until the first week in September, when by law the registry closes, and all per sons who fail to register will after that date not only be defaulters, and liable to execu tion for doable poll tax, but will be precluded from voting at the election for Mayor and Aldermen in October. REPRESENTANVOrf THE SOUTH Should ilia coaatitutioM 'amendment re cently passed by Cosgsfb bib accepted by the people the ctaute which makes the number of ejectors the, basis of represents tion will operate most unjustly against the Southern States. ~ It is hardly probable tfiat the right of suf frage wtyl be accorded to the freedmen of the South for some time to come, if ever, 'hod as the case stands the representation of these Slates in Congress would be largely dimin ished. A comparison of the present appor tionment of representatives with what it would be under .the proposed new arrange ment exhibits the scale of reduction as follows : The Alabama representation would be educed from seven to four members, Georgia from seven to four, Louisiana from tour to two, Maryland from five to four, Mississippi from five to two, Missouri from uinc to eight, North Carolina from eight to five, South Carolina from six to two, Tennes see from eight 'to six, Texas from four to three, Virginia from eight to six. Dela ware, Florida and Arkansas would not be affected by the new apportionment, the first having one representative, the second one md the last named two. In fine, the fourteen Southern States thus enumerated would lose twenty-five votes, or one-third of its representation in Congress by the census of 1660. In the event of the ratification of the constitutional amendmenl, the only consolatory reflection would seem to be that twp-thirds of a representation is better than none, and that the injustice would ere long be rectified by fnture legisla tion resulting from the good sense and just impulses of the entire country. But we incline to the opinion the authors of the propositiou to curtail Southern repre sentation and to disfranchise a large portion of the people quite mistake the temper of the South when they imagine there is here any such anxiety for re association with them in Congress and the other branches of the Government, as to induce the confession of criminality or the confession of dishonor. Jndeed there may be no practical advantage in having representatives in Congress, so long as that body is swayed by men of such extreme opinions as Stevens and Kelly and Sumner and Wade. Bat we indulge the hope that the Northern people will yet eject these men and their like from the public councils, when the South will with pleasure send back her representatives, who will be admitted, we take it, without any such con ditions as are now sought to be imposed. ANOTHER VETO. The President lias made another valuable use of the veto power in placing his seal of disapproval upon an act of Congress granting a pre-emption right to the New York and Montana Manufacturing Company of twenty sections of land, containing 12,800 acres, nearly all of which are mineral lands. The policy of the Government has been, here tofore, to Bell lands of this description to the highest bidder, at the minimum price of twenty dollars per acre, but this bill proposes to give a wealthy company three s.-;tions, at 31 25 per acre, payable after two years. Some of the Radical Senators were so ex asperated with the President that they made a strong effort to insult him by laying the message on the table without reading it. This was a most wanton assault on the Exe cutive branch of the Government. Party feeling, in its most excited hour, never went so far before. The large and enlightened majority in the Senate, highly exasperated with General Jackson, never thus attempted to encroach upon the Executive prerogative. I: did not occur to Clay, Webster and Cal houn, and other eminent statesmen, that the Executive could thus be ignored, or that Con gress could usurp the authority of the Presi dent, as the Radicals would do. Nor can such conduct as this be tolerated long. Par ties, like individuals, can squander their es tat6s. It may be that a sifting prooess awaits them. It is to be hoped they cannot, as here tofore, during the excitement of war, hml their anathemas and fly their poisoned ar rows with impunity. Fxsias News.—There is little news to re cord m relation to the Fenian movement, ex cept that orders have been issued by General Sweeney and Colonel Mehan directing no more troops to be sent to the frontier, and that those gone'forward shall return to their homes. The reason assigned for the failure of the enterprise, by the leading men of the Brotherhood, is the opposition of the United States Government Nothing of importance was elicited in the examination of President Roberts, and others, before court, witnesses declining to testify, on the ground that they would criminate themselves. Mr. Roberts has been released from imprisonment. Troubles in the Wbst.—In a recent tour made by Gen. Blair through the State of Mis souri, for the purpose of presenting the Pres ident's policy to the people, he was continu ally insulted and bis audiences attacked and disturbed by rowdies, set on thereto and countenanced by the radical officials, who now control-that State. In several instances fights occurred,'knives and firearms were freely used, and live* were lost. The radi cals were the attacking party in every in stance, and if the slightest resistance was of fered to their violence, the party resisting •was arrested, while the real infractors of the peace were allowed to go scot free. THE PRISON LIFE OF JEFFERSOsg DAVIS. We devote a large portion of oui apace to day to extracts from Dr. Craven’s intensely interesting narrative of the prison life of Jefferson Davis, in the belief that we could not occupy our columa th matter that would be read with more universal in terest. The author, for many months, as med ical attendant on Mr. Davis, enjoyed pecu liar facilities for observing his sufferings, learning hisbpinions, and studying his char acter. A humane and cultivated gentleman, it is not wonderful that, notwithstanding his strong Northern prejudices, he came to sym pathize with the sufferings, and learned to respect and venerate the person of his dis tinguished patient. To him the South, the nation,and the civil ized world are indebted for the only authen tic revelation that has come from the grated casemates of the grim fortress, and to his manly candor and benevolence of heart tho Southern people owe a debt of gratitude, not only for having striven to relieve the anguish of his prison life, but for having vindicated the character of the chief whom they honored and trusted in the past, and whom they still venerate and love, from the thousand calum nies which malice would have heaped upon him. What will be the effect of Dr. Crave book on the Northern mind it is difficult say. Encountering so much prejudice as it must in that quaiter, it is possible that in the degree that the generous candor of the au thor has vindicated and exalted Mr. Davis to the view of the unprejudiced and fui judging world, it will inspire the envy and hatred of his enemies. We observe in the Trib uue and other journals of its class, notices and extracts from the book manifestly designed to counteract any influence which the narra tive might exert in allaying the prejudice ex isting against Mr. Davis. Alluding to private letter of Mrs. Davis, written to the author in her hours of anguish, the Trilmn expresses the opinion that—“little educated as the Northern public may be in the school of pride, they will deem the letter au in citemeut to pity rather than to respect of family misfortunes which, on the whole are not as great as those borne by many humbler rebels.” But the civilized world are not all educated in Mr. Greeley’s school of philanthropy, and it is to be hoped there are many at the North who, though they may not make an os tentatious display of pretended sympathy, and are not, perhaps, able to go to Washing ton and offer $50,000 on Mr. Davis’ bonds, are still not deaf to the voice of truth, nor so indurated by envy and hate as to be inserts! ble to the promptings of humanity towards fallen enemy. If the volume does no more, it has broken the silence of the living tomb, and given utterance to truths that malic cannot confounded that will live in history We shall continue our extracts from the volume, selecting such portions as will be of greatest interest to our readers. Vote of Ti.atela* MGen. J«to.W. Geary, by Solomon'* Lodge, A. F. M.. of Nav#a- nah. v At a regular communication of Solomon’s Lodge, No. 1, A. F. M., ot this city, held at their hall on Thursday evening, March 15th, 1866, the following preamble and reso lutions were offered and nnanimonsly adopted : Whereas, upon the evacuation of this city by the Confederate forces on the morning of the 21st December, 1864, the Masonic Hall building, (partly owned, by this Lodge,) to gether with the regalia, furniture and many valuable mementoes of its past history, were placed in imminent danger from the mobs who were plundering many places in the city, and would have probably been greatly injured or perhaps destroyed, but for the prompt action of Maj. Gen. Juo. W. Gear£, commanding the 2d Division, 20th Army Corps,' which constituted the advance of the United States Army, who, upon being in formed of the state of affairs, as be marched into the city, promptly placed a strong guard at the disposal of the W. M. ot the Lodge, which quickly dispersed the plunderers be fore any material damage had been done to the building. Therefore, be it Resolved, That Solomon’s Lodge, No. 1, A. F. M., remembers with deep gratitude this truly Masonic act on the part of General Geary, and also other favors shown to it while commanding officer of this post, and would assure him that his treatment of our fraternity, and the citizens of this place in general, in those trying times, gave relief to many anxious hearts, and will always be ap preciated by them; and, therefore, be it fur ther Resolved, That the thanks of this Lodge be and the same arejieraby tendered to Brother P. G. H. P. John W. Geary, of Pennsylvania, and that the Secretary be, instructed to for ward a copy of these resolutions to him un der the seal of the Lodge. On motion, it was farther Resolved, That a copy of the above pream ble and resolutions be forwarded to Brother Sarul. W. Mason, of the Savannah News and Herald, for publication at such time as he shall think proper. True extracts from the minutes. J. H. E still, Secretary. The Tax Bill Nearly Ready.—The Seuate Finance Committee have about con luded their consideration of the tax bill.— Among the changes from the House bill are the followingThey have added to the free list sulphur, saltpetre, American wines, cordage, and cast iron water pipes. They have taken out mowers and reapers, wooden ware, sorghum, machinery,and iron bridges also, papers, except printing, levying a tax of five per cent, on all other qualities. The tax ou clothing is raised from one to two per cent. In place of the advalorem rate on cigars they have substituted a uniform rate ot $10 per thousand. The tax on smoking tobacco is fixed at fifteen cents per pound, instead of twenty Cents. The House section in regard to moities is stricken out, as are also all tho House amendments to the income tax, thus leaving the tax as it now stands.— The tax of ten per cent, on the issues ot State banks is suspended for one year, from July 1st next. Official, PROCEEDINGS OF CMS! A Commanlcatlyi from the Secretary of the Treaiery- Washington, June 20.—The Secretary of the Trea sury, in a communication' to the House, expresses an opinion, based upon his observation .of tha^operation of the law of 1861, that an addition*! enactment au thorizing the resumption by the Soathani States, re spectively, of the remainder of the direct tax due team each would, in view of the present impoverished qon- dltion of the people, prevent much hardship in indi vidual cases and save from confiscation tha property of many persons against whom the Government has no grounds of complaint, while no public interest would be injuriously affected by the change. He states that should this policy be adopted, the cnlliutfea of taxes under the present system might and ought to be discontinued until tn opportunity for assump tion be offered. Whether the amount realized from the resales of property bidin for the Government should or ahould not be allowed to the States respec tively, in computing tho taxes still due, is a question well deserving of consideration, which is submitted without comment. The Senate refused to take up the House resolution fixing a day for final adjournment, and engaged in the consideration of the tax bill and adopted tha amend ment fixing the price at two cents a pound on cotton. The House refused to concur iq^the Senate amend ment to the Paris Exposition bill. A Beastly Prise Fight. Washington, June 20.— A prize fight took place this evening at a point on the Virginia side of the Poto- mac river, between Samuel Collier, of Baltimore, and Street. Comer Of BrVail. Barney Aarons, of New York. Forty-seven rounds 9 J were fonght, and resulted in the defeat of Aarons. Both parties were seriously injured. Upon their re turn to this city they, with others concerned, were arrested. They will be held for requisition from the Governor of Virginia.

The number interred is 1,486. The editor is preparing a list of the names yvhxch, when completed, will be published, ’fietd and foot-beard* are placed to each fcrave, and very few are unknown. l „ I® Cholera.—A New York paper of the If®® 1 mat., speaking of the cholera' in that JUy, says three or four isolated cnees J»gve Tfcth reported within the past "few dajrg, and accordingly a little additional interest has been excited as to the chances of the disease assuming an epidemic form. It believes there is no cause of apprehension simply be cause of the cases referred to; and no doubt just such cases occur every year at about this season, bat ordinarily they pass for cholera morbus or some kindred '’••r-am Murders at Memphis* Tennessee, and Little Rock, Arkansas. — Last Friday posse of men attempted to carry into Mem phis two men, named 8. Rogett and Frank Wingate, arrested for the murder of a man named Payne, on Tuesday night. It seems that the guilty parties were informed on by E. N. Bank, an accomplice, who hunted them out near this city this morning. On nearing the city they were met by a Mr. Henderson, a relative of Payne, who shot all three, kill ing Bank and tnortally wounding Rogett. The leader of the posse ordered Henderson to desist, and, on refusing, the latter was shot and killed. The man who killed Hen dereon was Henderson’s own nncle. A telegram from Little Rock on Thursday night states that Dr. Webb, a wealthy citizen of that place, and his son, were murdered in their beds by an unknown assassin. Resolutions Complihxntaby to General Geary.—We publish in another column some resolutions adopted in March last, by Solo mon's Lodge, No. 1, A. F. M., complimen tary to General Jno. W. Geary, of Pennsylva nia, who assumed command of Savannah at the time of ite capture. We have delayed the publication thus long to allow sufficient time to elapse for General Geary to receive the official copy of the resolutions before their appearance here in print. We are indebted to Mr. J. Holbrook Kstill, Secretary of the Lodge, for a rescript of the reoorda ,relating to this subject. t (Hi > Col. Woods, late of Montgomery, Ala., was, on Thursday, in the Supreme Court of New York, on motion of 3. g. Winter, Esq., admitted to practice as an attorney and coun sellor at law in the courts of that State. Immigration.—Forty thousand and forty- nine alien bom immigrants arrived at the port of New York during the last month This is nearly double the arrivals in the cor responding month of last year, and those of the first five months of this year are nearly double those of the same period last year. From the opening of January up to this date the numbers rise as high a- one hundred thousand. Those who understand the mat ter estimate that we shall get up to a quarter of a million before the close of the year. Though even this will fall far short of 1854— the great emigration year—it will surpass any other recent year. Genl. Robert E. Lee.—Mr. R. H. Brown whose photographic establishment is over the Timber Cutters’ Bank, corner of St Julian and Barnard streets, has sent us a photographic likeness of Gen. Lee, which is not only a fine specimen of the photographic art, but is decidedly the bcst'likeness of the distinguished ex-commander of the armies of the Confederacy we have ever seen. Quiet on the Canadian Border.—General Meade has issued an order appointing Gen. Barry to the command of the whole frontier from Erie to Plattsburg, and has ordered all United States troops, except one company, back to their stations. General Meade thinks no further trouble need be apprehended on the border. Tennessee—It is said that Brownlow will convene the Legislature, which adjourned till November next, in extra session, to ratify the fourteeth article of the National Constitu tion before the adjournment of Congress.
