1 Savannah News and Herafd. BY 8. W. MASON. SAM.CKI* W. MASON Editor, \V. T. THOMPSON Associate Editor. Official Paper of the City. UBSEST CIRCULATION IN THE CITY AND COUNTY SATURDAY. JUNE 33. 1HGG. To ous Couistby Fbiesds.—As much interest is felt throughout the country in regard to the pros pect* of the cotton and other crops we will be grate ml to our planting friends and others in the interior for information on that subject. Those who have op portumtiea for obtaining valuable information in regard to the growing crop3, the working of the free- i»bor system, and kindred matters, of general interest, will confer a favor by communicating the same to us. PRESIDENT JOHNSON ON THE RE CONSTRUCTION CONSTITUTIONAL. AMENDMENT. Id our telegraphic column will be found animoortant message from President John sod. announcing to Congress the transmission by 'he Secretary of State to the Governors of :ue respective States, the joint resolution of Congress proposing for the ratification oi the State legislatures what is called the Re construction Constitutional Amendment. Ii will be seen that the President suggests grave doubts of the validity of the action of Congress in adopting the amendment while eleven of tr.e States are still unrepresented in that body, aud also of the propriety of pressing its ratification upon the Stale legis latures without affording an opportunity foi the sovereign people to pass upon the measure. Congress is notified that the transmission of the resolutions to the Gov ern- rs is purely a ministerial act, in no way committing the Executive to their sanction or approval. The effect of the message will be not only to array the President 's friends in tbe State Legislatures against the ratifica tion of this crowning act of innovation aud outrage upou the Constitution, hut also to direct the attention of all just men iu the Northern States to a nur- tizsn movement for the promotion of par- tiz tu purposes, utterly at variance with the spirit of Republican institutions and subver sive of the rights of the people. But eveD should the measure be ratified by the pres ent legislatures of the Northern States, the validly oi the measure will, without the rejection of the Southern legislatures, be left sufficiently in doubt to render it a question of exciting controversy in tbe popular elections next tall. It is plainly the intention of the radicals to ignore the Southern elates iu the ratification of their measure of disfranchisement and usurpation, but if we are uot greatly mistaken the oppo sition whjch it will receive in the loyal States, together with the gross irregularity of the whole proceedings in.its adoptiou, will ren der its final ratification and enforcement ex- tr.melv doubtful. Even the people of the North will object to having a new Constitu tion crammed down their throats in order to perpetuate the rule of the party now in power THE RECONSTRUCTION PLAN. It is reported that tbe Constitutional amend ment which passed Congress a few days ago is likely to be neutralized by the defeat of the bill reported from the Committee of Fif teen for carrying the amendment into effect. This bill requires the assent of States to the terms of admission offered as a condition pre cedent to their representation in Congress, either in whole or in part. It is introduced repre-enoition tor tne eleven soutnern States. A Washington correspondent says Mr. Ray mond and other Republicans opposed it as unnecessary, and calculated to make a false aud damaging issue before the people, who are, say the Conservative Republicans, be coming daily more clamorous for the com plete restoration of the Union. If they pass the bill, whether Congress can override the consequent veto or not, they will make an issue which the Radicals will be afraid to meet. They are just now, it seems, in a quandary upon this point. They think they can get over everything except their refusal to recognize loyal representatives from the Southern States. It is predicted that the entire Congress project will fail, for almost every seceded State, and a number of the al ways loyal States will reject it. If so, it is certain that in no anticipated or probable event v;il the matter of representation be settled under, perhaps, two years. Tho Radicals, however, in any event have at tained their object—to make up an issue upon which the party can maintain its power in Congress for two years more, and, if pos sible, secure the next Presidential election. THE rilEK SCHOOLS OF SAVANNAH. We are gratified to Icafa that the public schools in this city are not only in a prosper ous condition, bat are accomplishing much for the educational improvement of the large number of pupils in attendance. It is one of the gratifying sigos of the times that there is an improving public sen timent here, as in theJSouth generally, iu re gard to the utility of the system of lree schools, which, anterior to the war had been ignored, if not disputed. Oueof the weight iest impediments to tbe establishment of a system of education, of 6 public character aud of general use, hare been, to speak can didly, the prejudices and pride of the people themselves. This has been neither a pride of the rich, nor the poor, nor the middle classes. It has been indulged in by all. • A free school has been rather au object of aver sion—to the wealthy, because .they cared not to accept education for their children from the public, feeling quite competent to furn ish it themselves—to the poor, because they were too proud to accept educatiou which, as they erroneously iudulged the idea, came m the form of a gift of paupers. But we are of opinion that the tffne has come when each and ail of those prides must give way, as we feel assured they are, to bet ter reason, the necessity of the case, and a system devised so as to rob either class of a pretext for tbe indulgence of such uufouuded and unworthy feelings. We hope to see a system by which it shall be uot tbe inter est only but the pride of each and every class •of our people to patronize aud cherish, as tlie common property of all, lue public schools of the city, and of the State gener ally, when established. To the reflecting miud, it must be apparent that the day of large landed estates, of mag nificent distances, of acres by the thousand, is to pa-s a .vay by the operation of causes uow at work aud intensifying day by day. The inability to cultivate large farms, the coming influx ol 4 populatioD, aud a variety of potent influences will soon be at work to sub divide lauds, to reduce the size of farms, to bring tbe dwellings nearer together by crea ting more of them, and thus creating the sources from which the school-room is to be filled. How soon this is to happen we surely cannot know; but this we know, that we eaunot begin too early to forecaste and pro vide for what we are beginniug to strive to bring about, aud what we have reason to be lieve the future will assuredly bring. What Georgia needs, and must have, as early as practicable, is a system of free, pub lic education—a system, perhaps, supported aud enforced by law. She must make the education of ail classes a matter of coucern. It must take rank even with, if not above, politics, and agriculture, and baukiug, and commerce, and railroads. It must be a fun damental provision if we expect not to rc cede in the scale of civilization and enlighten ment. With the establishment of free schools, a free press, and the preservation of the right of free speech, the’ improvement of the masses and the solidifying of the foundations of a free and well organized government wiil follow as necessary consequences. The News and Herald. Our readers will excuse us if we are a lit tle vain of the good opinion of one whose known ability and long experience in jour nalism fully qualifies him to judge of the merits of bis cotemporaries. We republish the following from that ably conducted and influential paper, the Macon Telegraph, in tho hope that our up-country friends will approve the editor’s ‘‘recommenditiom ” bAVANNAH Papers.—As we are frequently called on by merchants and others desirous of ^ponsulting a Savannah paper, we would state—in no disobliging ^spirit, tb-v,.-’. <•„. that the News and Herald is a well edited paper, fully up to the mark in all business matters, and as it now comes through regular ly, we recommend that our citizens who have interests iu Savannah, send down their subscriptions, addressed io the proprietors of that journal. The Savannah papers in former days—at least one of them, for which we can speak knowingly—had large subscription lists iu Macon, and since the resumption ol intercourse there is no reason why they should uot have them again. We regret that at present we cannot, aud with a proper regard for the rights and feelings of Georgians, not conscientiously, extend our recommendation beyond the papyr referred to. The CoutitatioBBl Amendment Menage of the President. Washington, June 22.—The President sent Into Congress to-day the following message in relation te the reconstruction amendment to the Constitution: To the Senate and House of Representatives: 1 submit to Congress a report of the Secretary of Stete, to whom waa referred the concurrent resolu tions of the 18th Inst., respecting a submission to the legislatures of the States of an additional article to the Constitution of the United States. It will be seen from this report that the Secretary of State had on the 16th inst. transmitted to the Governors of the several States certified copies of the joint resolution passed on the 13th inst., proposing an amendment to the Con stitution. Even in ordinary times any question of amending the Constitution must be justly regarded as of r arainount importance.. This importance is at tbe present time enhanced by the fact that the joint reac tion was not submitted by the Houses for tbe appro val of the President, and that of the thirty-six States which constitute the Union eleven are excluded from representation in either House of Congress, although with the single exception of Texas, they have been en tirely restored to all their functions as States, in con formity with the organic laws of the laud, and have appeared at the national capitol by their Senators and have been refused admission to the vacant seats. Nor have the sovereign people of the Nation been afforded an opportunity of expressing their views upou the important question which the amendment involves. Grave doubts, therefore, may naturally and justly arise as to whether the action of Congress is in har mony with the sentiments of tbe people, and whether to such an issue they should be called upon by Con gress to decide respecting the ratification of the pro posed amendment. Waiving the question a9 to the constitutional validity of the proceedings of Congress upon the joint resolution, proposing the amendment, as to the merits of the articles which it submiis through the Executive Department to the legislatures of the States, X deem it proper to observe that the steps taken by the Secretary of State, as detailed iu the ac companying report, are to be considered as purely ministerial and in no sense whatever committing the Executive to an approval or a recommendation of tho amendment to the State legislatures, or to the people. On the contrary, a proper appreciation of the letter aud spirit of the Constitution, as well as of the inter ests of national order, tbe harmony of the Union and a due deference for an enlightened public judgment, may at this time well Euggest a doubt whether any amendment to the Constitution ought to be proposed by Congress and pressed upon the legislatures of the several States lor final decision, until after the admis- ion of such loyal Senators and Representatives of the now unrepresented States, as have been or may here after be chosen in conformity with the Constitution aud laws of the United States. Signed. Andbew Johnson. Accompanying the Message of. the President is Ihe report of the Secretary of State announcing that he had, in conformity with the proceeding which had been adopted by him in 1S65 in regard to the proposed and afterwards adopted Congressional amendment of the Constitution of the United States concerning the prohibition of slavery, transmitted certified copies of the joint resolutions to the Governors of tlie several States, together with a certificate aud circular letter. Proceedings of Congress. Washington, June 22.—The Senate was engaged to day iu the consideration of the Tax bill. The house devoted the entire session to the discus sion of the Indian Appropriation bill. order fn Thomas Thomamhiajl Ga., June 19,ISM, A man named Miller, residing In Thomas eounty, ten miles from Thotnaaville, was found lying in Us bed on Friday night last with his throat cut from ear to ear. It is generally lylieved, in the abaence of any positive proof, that the mnrder waa committed by a man who has been on bad terms with Miller for some time past, in consequence of an Intimacy that axlated between bis wife and the murdered man during tbe war. There is little sympathy expressed for the vic tim. Capt. Richardson, who was wounded In a quarrel here is rapidly recovering, and his injuries prove to be not at all dangerous. — The Macon Telegraph says the Northern school marrns who closed their twelve months’ labor of love and profit, and left that city for their hornet a few days ago, made arrangements prior to their departure for all their colored friends in Macon to go into mourning on the 4th of July, as a mark of respect to tha memory of Abraham Lincolns Why a day of national rejoicing among the whites was selected as one of lamentation among the blacks, is not so clear to tha mind of the editor who can only account for it on tbe hypotheeis that the instigators of the movement believe such e demonstration will be distasteful to tha formar mat. tors of the negroes. The Telegraph very properly re marks that the least the latter do in that line the better will it be for them, for if the two classes ere to live and work together in peace and harmony, they mult respect the feelinga of each other. Resolved, That the Democratic party is in favor of but one currency for all the people; that the conetito. tioual money of the country is gold and silver, bnt as paper money has been made to take the place of coin, thereby making the latter only an article of merchan dize, we insist that what is good enough to pay the honest, toiling millions for their labor is good enough for either bond or office-holder, and that the bond holders should be made tc bear their jnst proportions of the taxes of the county, with other people, and that they be paid their interest in the some kind of cur rency that the laboring and business men of the land are compelled to receive as money. The foregoing resolution was adopted by a Demo cratic Convention of the 6th Ohio Congressional Dis trict, and is in accordance with a wide-spread feeling on the same subject throughout the West, irrespective of party lines. It docs seem hard that the toiling mil lions are required to pay the taxes of the country in gold, and to receive what is due to them for their labor iu a depreciated currency, even from the government, when the rich bond-holder pays no taxes on his bonds, and receives his interest thereon in gold. What Is “sance for the goose should be sauce for the gander." If a moneyed aristocracy is to exist in the United States, no special privileges should be granted thatwouldsavor of relieving them from taxes which the laboring and productive classes have to pay. The principle is wrong and unjust to the latter.—Atlanta Intelligencer Mass Meeting of Conservatives in Balti more. Baltimore, June 22.—A meeting of the friends of the President's reconstruction policy was held last night in Monument square. Governor Swain presided and delivered a speech, together with other prominent Maryland conservatives. Daring Bank Robbery. Portland, Me.. June 22.—A party of robbers went to the house of the Cashier of tlie National Bank of Bowdvinham last night, gagged and guarded hit family, took him to the Bank, opened the vault aud robbed it of sixty-seven thousand dollars. They then laid him in the vault and decamped towards Cantda. (Arrival of Steamships. et Yoke, Juno 22.—The steamers Susquehaunah, from Rio Janeiro; Lafayette, Havre aud Wilmington, from Galveston, arrived this morning The foreign mails per the China leit hare for the South in last night’s late train. The Losses bt Crevasses in Louisiana.— A late Washington dispatch says the re port of Gov. Humphreys, of Miss., concern ing the iossc-s by crevasses in Louisiana, shows the breaks to be numerous and unusu- aly d gistroua. Ha lecommeuds appropriations as follows: Yazoo bottoms, $306,000. Eight levees on the Texas bottom, $236,000. Three levees ou the Mississippi delta, $217,000. An ag gregate ol $817,000. He says that crops of Cotton growing m the regions above Red river in I860 would amount to $108,000,000. and the sugar crop below that would be at present prices, $50,000,000. The complete repair of ali H e levees would require $3,- 900,000. divided between Arkansas, Louisi ana aud Mississippi. He estimates alluviate lands at three hundred aud seven thousand square miie9, of which oue hundred aud twenty-three thousand are in the sugar re gions, of which one-third might be brought under cultivation, or a million and a half acres for sugar, aud seven million acres to cotton. Of Course.—A special - dispatch iu the Daily News says the country will soon be startled by the avowal on tho part of the leading radicals in Congress that it will only require the vote of three-fourths the States now represented in Congress—that to say, the votes of nineteen States to ratif the Constitutional Amendment. The radicals have determined to insist upon this, and to declare the amendment ratified as soon as nineteen States have so voted. It is a little surprising that a party who have shown so little regard for the Coustitu tion should tako the trouble of going through the forms of a ratification oven by a portion of the Northern States.

Admission of Tennessee.—The Washington corres pondent of the Cincinnati Commercial, says: Forty members of Congress have signed a letter ad dressed to Gov. Brownlow, of Tennessee, asking him to convene the Legislature, for the ratification of the Constitutional Amendment, which finally passed the House on yesterday. If this be done by Tennessee, it is most probable that her Congressional delegation will be admitted ere the adjournment for this session. The Ohio delegation held a meeting this evening at Mr. Eggleston’s room, to consider the question of voting to immediately admit Tennessee. Stats.—The constitutionality of the "stay law argu ment" does not refer to tho late invention of leather corsets, which we learn are being worn by the ladies; although we are of the opinion that the corsets are a violation of the constitution of the better portion of our race. By the way, we see it stated that the "leather" idea is no new thing. Mr. Wm. Shakespeare suggested years ago to— Hide, oh! hide those hills of snow." See his sonnet in Measure for Measure.—[Augusta Constitutionalist.] Mb. Geo. B. McKinstey, until recently a citizen of Galveston, was drowned on the night of the 6th inst.. at the head of Galveston bay, by being struck and knocked overboard by a large fish, which leaped from the water into the boat. Tho fish again leaped out, leaving some scales, which showed it to be one of the kind known as grandecoys. There were two boats nearly together; and those on board are nndar the impression that they were purposely attacked by the fish, aud that Mr. M. was pulled under by it after having beeu knocked out o e the boat. The body was recovered three days afterwards. This is the latest from Fanny Fern, addressed to the ladies: "Show bnt a strip oi white stockings above your boot, ora bit of embroidered skirt, or a bslmoral, and you may lead a man by the no6e. I have positively seen gentlemen stand at the comers, eagerly bobbing their heads this way and that, to catch a sight of the gaiter boots, as they alighted from the various omni buses. Not all young men either, but grey-headed old codgers, who had grandpa written ail over them." Court of Ordinary, Chatham Co. •Jnue Term, 1800.

Slave Trade Revived by the Freed- men's Bureau Agents.—“Pierre,” (P. W. A.) in a letter to tbe New York News, from Thomasion, Georgia, states upon the au tbority ol the negro president of the Council of the Equal Rights Association of Georgia for that couD’y, that the agents of the Freed- tnen’s Bureau have carried off large numbers of negroes from that State under pretext of finding them lucrative employment in Louisiana and Arkansas, and have shipped them to the West Indies and sold them as slaves. Tnis information was procured by tbe Equal Rights Association (all negroes) thr-.ugh the.r special agent sent to Louisiana and Arkansas to learn the fate of the negroes carried off. The decoyed negroes were worked lor a time on plantations on the banks of the Mississippi and Red rivers, then seized at night aud hurried aboard vessels prepared for their reception, aud carried to tbe West Indies. Baltimore lias had several cases of negro civil rights iu her courts lately. We see by the following that Annapolis is now threat ened with quite a serious one; ‘ ‘On Tuesday afternoon last a colored woman entered the ladies’ car of the Annapolis and Elkridge Railroad, at the depot in that city, for the purpose of riding therein to the Junction She was requested to leave, and enter the car set apart for colored persons. She re fused, and was forcibly, ejected. She was very much insulted, and among other things we understand, said that ‘the people of An napolis had not yet heard of the Civil Rights bill, but that they would shortly.”’ . Bishop Hopkins, of Vermont, celebrated the fiftieth anniversary of his wedding last week, during the session oi the Diocese of % er “ out - He was married in Pennsylvania 1816—is seventy-four years of age, and his wife seventy-one. They have had nine child ren, most of whom were alive and present; Viso thirty grand-children and four great ^rand-children. Bishop Hopkins is a mar, ad a Christian prelate whom the South can ad does respect and love. Warning to Persons About to Travel —Mr. Seward, Secretary of State, has ad dressed a circular letter to the Governor of the States, saying that the Governor of one of them has issued passports to its citizens to foreigu States and countries, as cititizens of tbe United States. In calling their at tendon to ibis, be states that it is in direct violation of the Constitution and laws of the United States, aud will neither be recognized by the State Department, nor the sovereigns of the countries to which the citizens may have passed. The Raleigh (N. C.) Progress says: “We are happy to inform our readers that the Military Commission which has been sitting for some time on the case of Major John H. Gee, have unanimously acquitted him of cruelty to Federal prisoners while in charge ot the Confederate States prison at Salisbury. We are also reliably informed that General Ruger will approve the findings of the Com mission. We hope the Major will be speedily released and allowed to return to his home and friends. The National Intelligencer contends that the so-called reconstruction scheme of the Congressional party, with its “concessions, ” are “mere cloaks for the attempt to force universal negro suffrage upon all the States without the consent of the people of the re spective States.” Military Rule In Tenneisee. The followiog, which we fiud in the Knoxville Com mercial, of th« 19th, will illustrate the mildness of military rule in Tennessee : Arrested fob Disloyal Language.—About a week since, a squad of men^iving a few miles from Tulla horn a, Coffee couuty, commenced to build a dam which had beeu destroyed during the war. Before inaugurating tho enterprise, all hands iudulged iu a sociable spree. Four of the men. the brothers Tan kcr»iy, aud a man named Clark Anderson, when ex cited JY liquor, gave vent to disloyal e xpressions. Complaint waa made to Geu. Stone-man, who gave in structions to Gen. Johnson to have the parties nr rested. They were yesterday brought to this city,and alter a hearing, tbe Tankersly brother* wore sent to the Penitentiary. Anderson was released. Upon this paragraph the editor of the Commercial remarks: •'We fully endorse the Bending to the penitentiary, or anywhere else, men who are not willing to sustain the Constitujion and its republican form of Govern ment. Wo aro now engaged iu lighting just that class of men who are disloyal, aud who would gladly oreak up this Government; and we do not care whore they como from, or iu *hat shape they come, we shall con tinue to light them, both North aud South, and at home, and we only wisli that more of this stripe were working for tbe State they live in, and wo shall never have peace or unity until the two classes of rebels of our country are put down. Wo mean the rank Jtadi- calri and the red-hot rebels who are not willing to sup port a Constitutional Government." Plunder of the Invaders.—When our army oc cupied Baton Rouge, a force was placed around the ;rted mansion of Col. Bird, who was abroad in the Confederate service. At last it was deemed advisable a military necessity to destroy it; aud house, fur niture and library were at once reduced to ruin, youug American officer saved two splendid r ut-glass vases of gigautic size, of French manufacture, aud books from the library, which he forwarded to his uncle iu Iudiaua. Said that uncle to me: "I never wanted them, my wife never wanted them; licit like a thief every time I looked at them 1" but how to find the owner, how to return them, was the question. After trying several plans without success, lie finally asked the Grand Master of one of tho Western States to write to the Grand Master of the State of Louisiana, and if possible through him find out where Col. Bird could be found, if living, and if dead where the heirs were. He was growing more and more nervous over them. Although the plunder of war, they were not bis. It was peace now, they must not remain in his house. A few days since he received a touching letter from Col. Bird, who had survived the great contlict. He. was raking among the ashes of his home,not knowing that a thing had escaped the fire. Yes, he wanted the vases, the books.

A Frightful Accident.—A Paris letter says a frightful accident took place iu that city in the latter part of May, ou the premises of M. Aubin, the well- known manufacturer of fireworks. In consequence of an explosion at tho moment when ail the work people wero occupied, seventeen persons—twelve women and live men—met their death. The bodies were extracted from the ruins in almost a carbonized state. One poor woman was found to have given birib to an infant at the moment of tlie accident. The circumstance iias created a, great sensation. The Emperor immediately sent five thousand francs to the families of the sufferers. He afterwards drove iu person to tbe scene of the disaster, and was en thusiastically greeted by tho entire population of the neighborhood. Special Notices.
