and that our hard-worked employees and

paper office, we shall suspend the issue oi
the News and Herald to morrow, in ob
servance of the anniversary of the National
Independence.
Affairs In Mexico.
The New York Herald has advices from
Mexico to the 10th instant. The arrival o!
Santa Anna in this country was considered a
movement of little importance. The official
paper of the Emperor speaks vuy disparag
ingly of him. The Liberals are already pre
paring to dispose of the renegade Mexicans
when the French troops leave. The Junta
has decided to hang the leading Imperialist-
and confiscate their estates whenever it can
get at them. The celebration of the Era-
press' birthday wa9 not very general. Dread
of the luture vengeance of the Liberals re
strained many from participating in doing
honor to the occasion. The various legations
displayed their colors, with the single excep
tion of that of the United States. A series
of unimportant attacks and withdrawals,
with doubtful victories on both sides, are re
ported. The Emperor made a speech at the
railway celebration at San Angel The Em-
pre.-s gave a ball in the evening. Mr. Lloyd,
directing engineer of the Imperial railroad
irom Vera Cruz to Mexico, was at these fes
tivities, and was understood to have promised
the Emperor that the entire track from the
capital to Puebla would be ready before the
1st of September next. The Emperor had
ordered a draft to fill up the re-organized
army corps. The draft will commence on
the 15th r,f July next.
WHEN AND HOW DIO IT OCCUR
We have noticed in the proceedings of the
House of Bepreaentetivea at Washington the
THE PROPOSED NATIONAL CONVEN
TION AT PHILADELPHIA.
The Macon Telegraph argues at length in
favor of the Southern States being repre
introduction by Mr. Perham of a resolution j tbJ} Nationa i Union Convention
charging that gross outrages have been com- j " ged to ^ held in Philadelphia on the
the State ot j 4thofA 8t The editor sayat
Rumored Convention of “Southern
Unionists.”—Forney’s Chronicle, of Fri
day, says: “While the opponents of the
new articles of amendment are calling upon
recent rebels to elect delegatus to meet at
Philadelphia on the 14th of August next, for
the purpose of forcing such men into the
Congress of the United States, the earnest
Union men of the South, who feel that they
have been basely betrayed by Andrew John
son, are preparing to call a counter meeting
at an early day, which will he attended by
all who steadily adhere to the pledges aud
principles announced by Andrew Johnson
himself during his great campaign?
against the rebels and up to the period when
he abandoned them in order to make loyalty
odious. This great meeting will be one ol
the most imposing events of the campaign,
and will contribute an invincible element ti.
the National Union party. ”
A New Political Organization.—Au ex
tensive society, entitled “The Selavonian
Brotherhood,” has been organized with its
headquarters in New York. It is stated that
the society already numbers some two hun
dred thousand, comprising Poles, Bohemians,
Silesians, Moravians anu Serviaus. Mutual
improvement and strength, bolh political and
social, are the principal objects of “ r
ganizatiou. A central committee has been
appointed who purpose establishing a library
and reading room for the benefit of the so
ciety. Facilities and protection lor emigra
tion are also to be extended. Letters have
been transmitted to President Johnson and
Secretary Seward, asking the support and
co-operation of these gentlemen and appoint
ing them honorary members, to which replies
have been received, both from the Secretary
and President, acknowledging the compli
ment paid them, aud expressing approbation
of and sympathy with the objects of the so
ciety.
The North Carolina Convention.—This
body, which, adjourned last week, passed
thirty-two ordinances and seventeen resolu
tions. It is a little remarkable that the
larger portion of its legislation Was of the
most trivial character—such, for instance, as
the formation of a fire engine company in a
small country town, and another to incorpo
rate a hook and ladder company, and still
another to divorce a mau aud wife, aud so
on—subjects of scarcely sufficient importance
to demand the attention of a board of County
Commissioners. Of the seventeen itsolu-
tions adopted by the Convention, but one had
the least bearing upon the general interests
ot the State. Alas! the dcgeueracy of the
times. In days" gone Dy such imbecility
would have provoked an overwhelming
storm ot popular indignation.
-mitted on citizens of Maine in the State ot
Georgia, and requesting the President to in
form the House whether the personal rights
of citizens of the United States are suffi
ciently protected in the States recently in
rebellion.
It is unaccountably strange that the alleged
incident, if true, has not been chronicled in
the press of this State. It is our constant
custom to scan closely our Georgia ex
changes, aud we have yet to discovei the
slightest foundation for so grave au accusa
tion. We must therefore conclude r ’
Perham has been duped by some esigmng
knave, who, for purposes best known to him
self, would be glad to see military rule re-es
tablished over the southam people. *
We regret very much to see that an opinion
still prevails at the North, in certain quarters
and among a certain class of individuals,
that immigration to aud residence in the
South, unless in numbers largfc enough for
protection, would be very hazardous to the
lives and limbs of Northern men. Not long
since we observed in a Northern paper a
communication from a Southern correspond
ent, in which he invited immigration to the
section in which he lives, but very umusingly
cautions his people “ to come in sufficient
strength for mutual protection.” it came to
light afterwards that this correspondent was
the hired agent of western land-holders who
had a short time previously thrown their
lands into market, and to improve the
chances of profitable sales, thought it expe
dient to increase the flow of emigration West
by misrepresenting the true condition of af
fairs here. It may be, aud we think it prob
able, that Mr. Perham has been duped by
one of these lying pimps in the employment
of western land-jobbers.
At all events, we beg leave to assno il.c au
thor of this resolution of inquiry, these ...i.c-
ments of Southern hostility to Ko.il.arc
in nine cases out often malicious ial.seuo<«l .
Neither the people of Georgia nor ot any
portion of the South are such fools and sav
es as these idle and vicious representations
would imply. We frankly acknowledge there
was a time when it was the interest and the
wish of Southern people to exclude North
erners. This was when slavery ex-
existed. and when every Northerner
was regarded as an abolitionist, aud many of
them as John Browns in disguise. But
slavery no louger exists, and with it lias de
parted that necessity, which as an instinct
ot self preservation, imposed a jealousy and
distrust of Northern men. The South now
needs and desires nothing more than immi
gralion to supply 7 her with capital aud labor,
aud lo develop her resources. It would be
both loolish aud suicidal, in any portion of
her people, to pursue a course that would
deter immigration, or make it unsafe. What
ever may have been the prejudices of our
people, they must and will yield to considera
tions of personal interest and general wel-
tare. Whoever brings labor and capital to
the South now, no matter where from, will
be welcome, if he be honest and behaves
himself. Nobody from the North need be
atraid of being tomahawked, scalped and
roiituetl, as Mr. Perham seems to imagine.
We'liuve no cannibals, thunk God, amongst
us who hunger and thirst alter the flesh ami
blood of Northern men. AU we want is
‘The Convention at Philadelphia is de
signed to uphold the Constitution and main
tain the cause of civil liberty throughout all
this country, and especially at the South,
where both have been overthrown. It is de
signed to hold up the arms of the President
in a war against a faction that would inaugu
rate a centralized despotism over these States.
The Southern people have a deep interest in
this struggle. They are the friends of the
Piesident, and intend to stand by him to the
last. We therefore maintain that it is as
much their Convention as anybody else’s,
and no six men, as a committee or otherwise,
have a right to exclude them by irrelevant
issues or unreasonable conditions. It is a
People's Convention, not the convention of Mr.
Senator this or Mr. Representative that.
When they meet, it will be theirs to decide
who are and who are not qualified for mem
bership. Upon their action in this particu
lar the representation of the Southern States
can determine whether they can remain or
not, consistently with the rights, interests
aud dignity of their constituents.
“In view of these considerations, wo are ol
opinion that all the Southern States should j
lake steps to be represented in the Philadelphia
Convention. The President desires it, and
our interests demand it. In our judgment it
will result in a glorious reunion ot a divided
people, and the early and complete over
throw of the enemies of the Constitution.
Let us send able, discreet, and moderate
men to represent us, neither ultra-ceders,
nor ultra-unionists, but such ns can cordially
affiliate with conscrvalive men of the Noith.
and work with them iu harmony for the
public good. We believe they will be cor
dially met, asked no questions at the door,
and that their deliberations will result in
great and permanent good to our divided and
di-traded couutry.
“There may be some objections to this-
course, but they are mainly of feeling, and
should give way to the promptings of sober
judgment. They are but as a leather in ihe
scale compared with such grand results as
the defeat of the revolutionary spirit of the
North, ihe salvation of the South from the
fate prepared for her by her enemies, aud the
revival of constitutional liberty from the
tomb to which bad men have con
signed it. It is of first importance that entire
katmony should exist among our people on
this subject, aud we hope to see all precon
ceived prejudices sacrificed on the altar of
the country.
“To the South, down trodden, oppressed,
aud powerless, this is a golden opportunity.
She cannot resist it and be faithful to the
country, to her best friend, the President, ot
to lierselt.”
The Messenger also favors sending dale-
gates to the Philadelphia Convention, aud
suggests that all the Southern States should
proceed at once to make judicious selections
for that purpose. The editor proceeds :
“How shall this be done - It would be
difficult in Georgia to' secure, nt this season
of the year and upon such brief notice, a
Convention of the people at large to make
the requisite appointments, aud county meet
ings (if a good many were held), would prob
ably result in cross purposes, for they would

Head-Centre Stephens.—Since the in
glorious failure of the recent Canadian inva
sion, Head-Centre Stephens is very bitter
over what be characterizes as the perfidous
conduct of the Roberts leaders. In his re
cent address at JoneB’ Wood, New York, he
gave O'Neil and Spear alone the credit of be
ing courageous, and sneered at the coward
ice of Roberts, who issued, ns he states, bel
ligerent manifestoes dated iu Canada. While
expressing sympathy for the unfortunate vic
tims of the raid, be hoped that they would
never be entrapped again by designing poli
ticians. He warned his hearers that the
American people could not be dragged into
war by any pnrty of Irishmen, and that the
•latter were false to their oath of allegiance,
and disturbing the peaceful foreign relations of
their adopted country. The time might
come when America would choose to go to
war with England, tmt of this she would
give them warning. *
Another Dead Deck.—titptai n p^Up p
Forney, Fourteenth United States Infantry,
(a son of Col. John W • Forney;, was recently
tried by conrt-martial at San Francisco, Cali,
fornit., and dishonorably diismissed the ser
vice. The charges of which Captain Forney
was found guilty were disobedience of orders
and conduct unbecoming an officer and a
gentleman. The sentence of the court has
been confirmed by the Commanding General,
and politically, aud, we may add,that iu these
times of extreme prostration we do thirst a
little for greenbacks.
It is only necessary to act upon a just and
generous policy to restore, kindness and
aspect between the two sections, but to cf-
-fect this is scarcely possible while men like
Mr. Perhant, are constantly impugning the
good laith of the Southern people by accusa
tions as groundless as they are insuitiug.
We siucerely hope the day is near at baud
when crimination and recrimination will be
succeeded by that mutual confidence and
respect which is found to exist in all nations
that are united, prosperous and happy.

The July number of this journal has
received from the publish*”-- J>lr " ^ ^
Pughe, of Augusta. «- Tlifc, tlie * wt num
her of the seTwa < edited by Professor
Jones, of the Medical College of
Georgia, at Augusta, contains the Surgical
statistics of the recent civil war, published
both North aud South. This number con
tains ISIS pages, printed clearly and plainly
on good white paper, and is well worthy the
reputation of the publisher.
Among the original articles, first in order
tor notice, is a report on Spurious Vaccina
tion, by Dr. Habersham, which it would be
well for physicians to read and consider as
important where small pox has been so rife
as among us the past year.
The second article is an able report on
vvouuds of large joints, by Dr. Read, in
which the anatomy, pathology and treat
ment ot this important class of wounds is
fully discussed, and its importance to military
surgery eo clearly shown as to leave but little
to be added. It is well worthy the attention
of Surgeons in civil as well as iu military
practice.
Article third, by Dr. Doughty, includes a
report on ligation of the subclavian artery,
important in itself considered, and valuable
in the information it contains to the practical
Surgeon.
In article fourth is found an interesting
lecture by Dr. Dugas, on suppuration, in
which hejshowa the present state of knowl
edge on the subject, and after discussing the
use r purposes of suppuration, and the
good ends thought to be attained by the for-
mauon of pus, which he thinks problemati
cal, very clearly proves it to be an element
of constitutional injury, end its formation so
fraught with mischief in very many instances
that it should be regarded ae a disease de
manding the most serious attention.
In article fifth, notes upon the history of
hospital gangrene, by Dr. Jones, is well pre
sented, showing great industry and research
on the part of the writer,
Reviews are now brought before us. In
the brief space allotted for noticing such pe
riodicals in the columns of a t daily paper, we
have time only to allude to a review of circu
lar No. G, War Department, Surgeon-Gene
ral's Office, Washington, November 1st, 1805,
a circular which, from the handsome and
elaborate style in .which it is prepared, and
the important facts which it contains, cannot
but prove of value to the medical profession
as a faithful record of surgical experience
acquired ^during the recent civil war, aud
well worthy the distinguished source from
which it emanates.
Under the head of original correspondence
is found an interesting article on the history
of the dry culture system on the rice lands
near Savannah, by our old fellow-citizen. Dr.
Wat. C. Daniell, well deserving the high
reputation formerly universally accorded to
him as a physician and one of the most pub
lic-spirited men of this community. The
Perusal of this article will be found highly
interesting to our citizens, as well as to the
medical reader of the journal.
The Southern Medical Journal is published
bi-monthly, at Augusta, at $5 per annum.

even if they did, they could not furnish cre
dentials or claim to represent the entile
State. It is probable thut in the present
poverty and depression ot the people, aud
amid the struggle to recuperate their fallen
pecuniary fortunes, few would be inclined to
take sucli au active interest in the matter a:;
would be necessary in getting up meetings
which might justly claim to represent even
the counties or congressional districts.
“ It occurs to us that, under the circum
stances, the best course would be to memo
rialize the Governor to make the necessarv
appointmeuts. It is an extra ot*—'” 1 duty ■
for which he would -,**«« warrant : but we
assume he -~uid discharge it (and with great
/augment and discretion) if satisfied that the
peeple desired it at his hands.
“The Governor is in himself a representa
tive of our entire people. He was elected
by unanimous consent, and we think the most
entire confidence is reposed iu his judgment,
integrity and patriotism ; and a certificate ol
appointment by him, uuder such sanction,
would be considered a satisfactory voucher.
Inasmuch, therefore, as there is no division
of opiuion among as in regard to the object
of the Convention, we venture this sugges
tion for what it is worth. Should the press
aud people adopt it, a good and efficient rep
resentation can be secured' -•dthout trouble.
Tbe time la short and It will be necessary to
act promptly."
Wa cordially approve the view* of our Ma
con cotemporaries, and trust that the action
of the people of the South will be united,
harmonious and prompt. If in the present
attitude of affairs anything can be accom
plished towards the restoration of the Union
under the Constitution, the proposed Con
vention offers the most practicable, if not the
only possible means of accomplishing that ob
ject. For the reasons stated by the editor, we
also approve the suggestion of the Messenger
in regard to the manner of selecting dele
gates to represent Georgia in tho Convention.
