AUGUST SO. 1806. postmasters Are authorized to receir. lubereiytionH for the NEWS AND HERALD, Daily, Tn-Weekly and Weekly at our advertiaed retea.. TO OUR COUNTRY FRIENDS, ii much .inf eat U felt thvnnghoul the country in fegtadle lire greepecte of the notion and dthercrop. we will be grateful to our pleating friend, end other, n the interior for Information on that subject. Those who hare opportunities for obtaining raluable infor mation in regard to the growing crop*, the working of tho free-labor system, and kindred matters, of gen eral Interest, will confer a favor by communicating the aarne to ns. Balb or Cotton foe the President.— The Washington Republican of tbe 16th inst., noticing the arrival of the bale of cot ton from Georgia says: The President was yesterday the recipient of a bale of cotton, tbe first received in tbe market at Macon, Ga., from tbe people of that city, in token of their appreciation of the wise and states* manlike policy which he is pursuing on tbe great question of restoration. Tbe loyal masses of the entire Soutli are with the President, and were it not for tbe devasta ting effects of waf, nod the general pov erty of the Southern people, he would re ceive from them for more substantial assu ranees of their endorsement of his policy of union and restoration. Gut Fawkes Rbdivivds.—The news from England tells us of a plot to blow up the two Houses of Parliament. It is difficult to con ceive from what side such an attempt should be made- Parties are so well divided both in tbe Lords as well as in the Commons that all would suffer very nearly equally in a dis aster of tbe kind, which was sought to be effected. We suppose that it was a practi cal joke—a stupendous hoax—unless, indeed, there are some factionists in London, who hate all parties with impartial vindictiveness. This affair, coming just after the riotous de monstrations in the British capital, sbow9 that “tbe best governed country in the world" is liable to disturbances, as well as Louisiana. _ THE CHOLERA. - - It gives «s plMSne to state that this die. ease has not, thus for, assumed in ohr city even the samblamto of an epidemic form. The few sporadic cases of duly occurrence are mostly confined to the negro population on the outskirts of the city, and are traceable to superinducing causes which can only be, removed by k thori^gft'. MK‘ pefhaps? im^ practicable reformation of the loose habits of the class upon whioh it preys. It is gratifying to know that in the interior portions of the city^where sanitary rules gjg intelligently and rigidly observed, cases are of exceedingly rare occurrence, and no fears am entertained that ft will aM$$*» mnbg- nant type. We yentffc the qpmff#* $41 if the sanitary measures which have been adopted are persistently adhered to, tqg£ther with the growing coolness of the weather, the disease will soon disappear, or, at l^eagt, will be so severely checked as to render its struggling existence comparatively harmless. Cleanliness has always been ranked among the virtues, and now when it is known to be a preventive remedy of certain reliance, it commends itself more than ever to our atten- tention. The city authorities have done their duty, so far as the streets and alleys of Savannah are concerned; and if the people, for whose health these changes Save been made, would meet them with a like spirit, as we believe they will, the cholera will soon be driven out, having nothing to subsist upon. Let each householder examine his own premises, and see to it that the cellars emit no effluvia that can breed disease. The prying eyes of the Board of Health cannot see into the cellars, cupboards, and tho out- of-the-way places of the householders; and hence, while much effort and money Is spent to keep the streets in good condition, cholera nests may be kept secret from their observa tion by tiie very persons whose lives are thus endangered. A general and thorough clean ing np of houses and of their premises by our citizens, and a general attention to diet, which many, both white and black, disregard entirely, would at once eradicate the pesti lence. Let it be tried. 5 TCTiESia* on the President and Dfcactcto of the A. * G. Bnilroad are. we thins, jureniT—* to aU other daime. It is but justice to the citizens of Decatur county to complete the road to this point wijh all possible dispatch. The growing * an expeditious highway for its transportation to the markets df the fttiSMf, and that great highway will soon be furnish ed, and ap^tirfUtoat'will turn jtbwtr^qf Southwestern Georgia in another direction, ■nfl fnnr** - her with a market in the great Southwest’ New Orleans wilT be a danger ous competitor to any city in this State, after a few mouths preparation, unless timely arrangements are made by tbe city of Savan nah. When trade is fairly established in one direction, it is hard to turn it jnto a new channel, without offering great inducements. It will be quite easy to connect the A. & Gulf Road with St. Marks, by way of the Live Oak Branch; but this will leave tbe counties of Decatur, Miller, Early, Baker and Mitchell unprovided for; and they are the best cotton-growing counties in the South ot the State. Now, if we are compelled to seek our market in New Orleans, the sooner the better. Our fields are already white with the golden fleece, and the city that secures to itself tbe present crop, will be compensated for yeaisto come, for vigorous and timely ef forts. We contemplate making a visit to our friends in New Orleans, some time in tbe month of September, when we shall use our best efforts to establish a permanent line of trade between this city and that great mar ket of the West. In the meantime, we WqvH suggest to Uie dealers .in Western pro duce, and groceries in general, that the Georgian is prepared to give wide circulation ♦o-tbe* bbsifiess cards and advertisements of all those seeking to open a new business, to increase a business alread y began, in this promising land- of trade. Let them look well to it.—Southern (Ba inbridge) Georgian. Easlx Corn.—The Edgefield Advertiser says that Messrs. Smith A Clemens, of Mount Vintage, nine miles below that place, on Mon day last sent a load s of com of this year’s growth to that village for sale, and readily obtained for the same $1 80 per bushel. It was of the Pennsylvania gourd seed variety, and dry and fine. This species of jeora is certainly entitled to the consideration of our people, as it produces a fine yield, and ma tures before the drouth generally comes on. Another year we hope many of our fanners will give it a thorough test The Paris Exposition.—The total value of the prizes to be given at tbe forthcoming Paris Exposition is $160,0C0 in gold. In tbe department of arts there are 17 grand prizes, valued at $400 each; 32 first prizes, valued at $160 each; 44 second prizes, $100 each, and 46 third prizes, $80 each. Besides these there are to be various other grand prizes and allowances of money, of a total value of $10,000; 100 gold medals, $200 each; 1,000 silver medals, 3,000 bronze medals, and over 6,000 “honorable mentions." All the medals will be of tbe same model. The jurymen to decide upon the merits of articles sent from the United States are to be selected by the United States Commissioners. Arkansas Election.—An election was held in Arkansas on Monday, August 6th, for members of Congress, State Legislature and county officers. So far as heard from, the election was everywhere quietly conducted The nominations were conservative, and made without reference to former political antece dents. Except in a few localities, no Radical or Republican tickets were in the field. Scattering returns indicate the election of Hobson for Congress over Askew by a large majority in the Third District. Gen. Rousseau has sent a dispatch to his friends in Louisville to the effect that if he can be re-elected to Congress, without a scramble, he should be gratified. The Louis ville Courier, which has heretofore opposed his re-election, now urges it. He will be re elected without serious opposition. The New York Herald of Monday, treated its readers to three columns and a half of dis patches by the Atlantic cable, for which it paid five thousand, dollars in gold. We should call that newspaper enterprise. The war correspondent of the London Morning Herald is Col. Von Bourke, late chief of staff to Gen. Jeb Stuart. Col. Von Bourke is tbe author of the brilliant series of papers in Blackwood’s Magazine entitled, “Memoirs of the Confederate War lor In dependence.” Although a German, he writes Fngb«b with a correctness and dash of style scarcely to be expected in a for eigner. He has the further advantage ot being at home not only in the language of the Prussian army, but in all its manage ment. having received his military education, m aft officer of cavalry in that service. It is stated on high authority that General Grant has requested Secretary Stanton to furnish for publication all of Sheridan’s dis patches in reference to the New Orleans riots, in order to set at rest the various and contra dictory reports concerning them, as well as to place General Sheridan correctly betore the country in the matter. Collectob or Customs at Savannah, Ga.— The Washington Republican of the 17th inst. states that the commission of ex-Provisional Governor James Johnson, of Georgia, ap pointing him Collector of Customs for the port of Savannah, was yesterday signed by the President. Queen Emma.—The Queen of the Sand wich Islands is still in Washington, where she was called upon on Wednesday by a number of clergymen of the Episcopal Church. The interview lasted an hoar, and all de parted most agreeably Impressed by the graceful vivacity of tbe Queen, her engaging address and dignified-cordiality. Mm. Davis and Hu Eamidt.—Fort Mon- son, Aug. 9..—The latest Information from the family of Jefferson Davis is to the effect that Mrs. Davis is about to change her apartments from the casemate in Fortress Monroe to rooms in Crrroll Hall, where she may be at all times near her husband. Mu. Davis has all along been dissatisfied with the casemate. Ls Missouri arrests of ministers of the Gos pel for preaching without first t*kiT. g the oath prescribed by the Radicals continue to bo of daily occurrence. The Methodists and Catholics seem to be the peculiar objects of Radical vengeance* For Mayor.—The friends of Jno. D. Smith, Esq., have announced him as a candidate for Mayor of Augusta. PRESIDENT JOHNSON’S ADDRESS. In the telegraphic column will be found a sketch of the address of'the President in re sponse to Hon. Beverdy Johnson, who pre sented the official proceedings of the Phila delphia Convention. We commend it to the attentive consideration of our readers, and we would especially direct to it the attention of Southern Radicals, if there be any in our midst. When a public .man is assailed with unjust imputations in regard to his motives and offi cial conduct, he can only avow his real aims, and trusting to time and the refutation to be afforded by his conduct, live down the slan ders. It has been the fortune of the Presi dent since his ascension to the Presidency to be opposed and villified, not for any violation of the constitntion or the lews of the iand, but solely on account of principles and pur poses falsely imputed to him by his enemies. But tbe American people are beginning to understand the principles and' b£ appreciate the patriotic motives of this fegtfefg defender of popular institutions, and wufyet give him a glorious triumph over tbe unprincipled faction which has sought tbe overthrow ot his Administration and the destruction of his character. Since the time when our fkther3 laid the foundations of the Republic no man has ever been in a public position in America, around whom such anxiety and interest has centered, or upon whom such vast responsi bilities have rested as the present occupant of the Executive chair. The destiny of the land seems to wait upon his action. The hopes of millions cluster about him; the prayers of a Christian people are offered in his behalf. May the God of nations inspire his counsels with grace and wisdom. lie NIGHT DISPATCHES, ™ * •£_; * FROM NEW YORK. To Travelers.

Report or Fit eedmen’b Bureau on Con dition or Affairs in Georgia and Ala bama.—A Washingt on dispatch to the New York Sun in regard to the reported destitu tion in Georgia and Alabama, says:—“The Commissioner of the Freedmen’s Bureau has received an elaborate report from a special inspector who was charged with the duty ot investigating the reports of destitution re ceived from Alabama and Georgia. This officer visited, in the course of bis inspection, Northern Alabama and Georgia, and traveled incog., in order tbe better to reach tbe truth among all classes. After giving a detailed report in reference to each county visited, be says his observations have convinced him that there has not been a single case of star vation in either State ; that the amount of destitution has been largely exaggerated; that although some destitution exists and has existed, it is not absolute, bat con sists mainly in confinement to some one or few articles of food, of which, in nearly all cases, there bas been a sufficiency, and that it has been ascrib- able in great part to tbe idleness of tbe people; that the issue of rations as at present con 1 ducted is producing great demoralization and idleness among the people, and thit so long as it is continued the apparent necessity for it will exist; that the crops, though small, are amply sufficient, with economy, to sup ply the people with the ne cessaries of life til another crop is harvested.” New York, Auguat 19i—A Washington special states that Mr. Stanton will soon be appointed Minister to Spain, and that Genera! Steedman will be Secretary of War. An Ottawa special says the Canadian authorities con tinue operations to;resist Feuians. The troops at Quebec are ordered to be iu readiness, and ten thou sand canteens are being manufactured. A letter from Heart’s Content of the 7th states that the shore end of the cable got foaled with the anchor of a coat vessel on the Ctb, but was released fay a diver from New York. There were .seventeen new cases and eight deaths by cholera, reported m this city for yesterday. The shipments of’specie to Europe since hute 1st, exceed $52,000,000. Ji, The President bas issued a prouiataatipn declaring that tbe insurrection which heretofore existed in the State of Texas is at an end, and is to be henceforth so regarded in that State. In tbe other States in which the said wss declsred at an end by the proclamation of the 3d of April, 18G6, the President further proclaims that the said insurrection is at an end. and that order, tranquility and civil authority now exist in and throughout the whole of the United States of America. -.- A special to tbe Herald asserts that Cnthbart Roller, of New Orleans, bas been guilty of misconduct office and that tbe president will remove him. Washington, Aug. 17.—A meeting of officers and soldiers was held last night at Willard's Hotel. It was decided to bold convention’ of soldiers North and South at Chicago on September 17th. A committee was appointed to draft a call, which will be issued during the week. Gen. Steedman, Emery, Custar and other prominent officers were present In accordance with the President's proclamation of the seventeenth inst., declaring null and void Maxi milian's paper blockade of Matamora. and other Mex ican ports now in possession of the /paristy The Navy department has detached two men-of-war, to be stationed at tbe mouth of the Rio Grande.

The following preamble, sent ps by our Philadelphia correspondent, which was laid on the desks of members on the first day of tbe meeting, we suppose embraces tbe gen eral principles of both the address and reso lutions, and may be regarded as the plat form of the National Union party: The National Union Party, in order to restore har mony and fraternal feeling throngbout the country; to cement more tally and firmly the nnlon of all tbe States: to extend the blessings of Liberty and estab lish Justice for aU our people, do make the following declaration of Principle* and Policy: First. Tbe Principles of Republicanism enunciated by Jefferson in hia inaugural message, and afterwards maintained by Jackson, and now re-usserted and ex emplified by President Johnson, are tbe basis princi ples of the National Union Party. Second. The Union of these States is in every oase indissoluble and perpetual; and the Constitution of the United 8tatea, and tbe laws passed by Congress in pursuance thereof, supreme and constant, and univer sal in their obligation. Third. Tbe rights, the dignity, and the equality of the States in the Federal Union, including the right of Representation in Congress, are solemnly guarantied by the Constitntion. Fourth. There is no right anywhere to dissolve the Union or to separate tha States from the Union, either by voluntary withdrawal, by force of anna, of ty Con gressional action: 1 riftb. Negro slavery is abolished, and neither can nor ought to be re-eetablished in any State or Terri tory within onr jurisdiction. Sixth. Each State bas tbe undoubted right to pre scribe the qualifications of its own electors; and no external power rightfully can or ought to dictate to, control or influence the free and voluntary ansfon of the States in the exercise of that right. Nevertheless, as it is the privilege and duty of every people to be eqnal to the changes that attend their development and history, Seventh, We reeommend the electoral people of the several State* composing the American Union, now that slavery is abolished, to institute each measures and adopt such policy aa will speedily secure to ail persons, irrespective of color, impartial rights, immu nities and privileges. Eighth. The American Continent is snored to tbe cause of Democratic Republicanism; and tha Ameri can people can never, therefore, regard with indiffer ence the attempt of any European Power to over throw by foroa, or tosuj*Unt by fMud, me destitu tions of any Republican Government on the Western Continent And any continuance or further attempt of this kind will be viewed in the light of a menace to tbe peace and independence of the United States, and therefore cause of war. Ninth. The national fUth, pledged for tbe redemp tion of the public debt, must be kept inviolate, an d that for this purpose we earnestly recommend econo my and rigid responsibility in publio expenses, and a rigorous and just system of taxation. Tenth. Tbe foreign emigration, which in the put has added so much to the wealth, development or re sources and increase of power to this nation—the asy lum of the oppressed of all nations—ahoaid he' foster- - ed and encouraged by a liberal and just policy. Eleventh. Tbe people of the late rebellious States having surrendered to the national authority, and having shown a readiness to return in spirit and truth, to the principles ot Government pat forth by our common fathers, it is our duty as brothers of one national family, to forget the past, and tarivw by true emulation to perpetuate the principles of American civilization. A General Amnrsty.—A special dispatch from Washington to the New York Post, states confidently that a proclamation will be immediately issued le-establisbing the Habeas Corpus in all the States, and practi cally terminating the military occupation of the Southern' States. The Richmond Times credits the announcement, and adds: Msy we not hope that the noble and unfortunate statesman now langniaUng in prison and enduring tbe slow tortures of Inqnisitor Miien, will not be excluded from ite inefciful provisions. rrr... Her* is an extract £rom|the latefspeech of General Geary, of Pennsylvania, delivered before a radical auditory in New York u a fff# days since. We commend it for ita diction, and the author for his modesty: I am a soldier (applause), and am m°ro ac customed to set squadrons in the field (than to put together figure* of rhetoric pleasant to your ears. A brave nun is here who you all delight to honor—Governor Curtin—(ap plause)—he will be more pleasing to you to listen to than I can be. I have set, as I said, squadrons in the field, and never met defeat. [COMMUNICATED. ] Registration of Voters—Tbe Approach ing City Klectioa—obstruction* in Sa vannah Riwer. Mr- Editor—Permit me, through the col umns of your journal, to call attention to the apparent apathy which exists among onr citizens in reference to their registration as voters, without which they will be disquali fied from voting at the municipal election, which takes place in October. There are probably fifteen hundred persons resident in the city, legally entitled to vote at. said elec tion, but up to tbe present time only a little more than half that number have registered their names. By the terms of the law the registry closes on tbe first Monday in Sep tember—two weeks from to-day—after which all persons having foiled to register will be precluded from voting. In ordinary times it might be deemed unnecessary to admonish citizens of the importance of securing the right to vote at the city election; but as the times are sadly out of joiut, and most per sons feel little interest in political matters, the writer does not consider it necessary to offer an apology for obtruding it upon their attention. I think that at the present juncture, when our political status is^so uncertain and illy de fined, no one will deny the importance of se lecting our very best men as candidates for Mayor and Aldermen of the city; none but men of approved intelligence, patriotism, firmness and zeal, should be clothed with power. The maintenance of a good City Government, which includes a faithful exe cution of tbe laws and ordinances, the pre servation of the public peace, the levying of just and equitable taxes, the maintenance of an effective police, tbe enforcement of proper regulations for the preservation of tbe public health, and all tbe other items which are in cluded iu the idea of a good City Govern ment, appeals to. the interest of every in habitant, and should be a subject of interest to every good citizen. Such an administration of public affairs can only be expected at the bands of intelligent and conscientious offi cials, and such can be elected only by the determination of citizens to register and vole for the best man. In connection with a consideration of the interests of the city, I would refer to the im portance of the prompt removal of tbe ob structions from our river and harbor. If this is not thoroughly dooe, Savannah, as a com mercial point, must seriously suffer, and carry with it a corresponding depreciation of tbe value of property, of the businesa of the merchant, the profit of the tradesman, the employment of the mechanic, and the liveli hood of the laborer. The interests of all are involved, and must suffer alike. To carry out effectually tbe removal of the obstructions, we should have at the head of city affairs men of knowledge and experience in such matters, who can promptly decide whether the work is being faithfully performed, and the interests of the city secured. If persons without know ledge and experience are placed in authority for the next year, the city has no guarantee that the benefits anticipated will accrue. Contractors may or may not carryout their contracts, obstructions pre judicial to the commercial interests may be overlooked or allowed to remain, and there fore the city should-have a vigilant represen tative, who can watch over her interests and apply the corrective, should ft become neces sary, by appealto the President (ft the United States,: ae waMecoHly moat eencemfolly ac complished by CM. Anderson, the present Mkybr, and his colleague, Mir. Cohen, on their recent visit to Washington. Savannah. Colonel John D. Ashton.—We team from the Waynesboro Times that this gentleman, who was recently wounded in this city, ar rived at that place on the 16th inst, and is rapidly recovering. The “Radical Soldiers" of Missouri held a Convention at tit Louis en tbe lltb instant, Gov. Fletcher, Gen. Logan and other de- stinguisbed Radicals being present, aed de dared in tavorof unrestricted negro suffrage, denounced President Johnson very bitterly, and, amoDg other resolutions; adopted the following: Resolved, That it belongs to the victors and not to the vanquished to dictate the terms of restoration; - that the rebellious States have no right to representation until they comply with such conditions as the loyal people through Congress may prescribe; and that the public safety and honor require that no such State be restored to rnpresen tation until its government is controlled by loyal men and not by rebels. A Duel.— We learn from a gentleman who was near tbe scene, says the Abbeville Banner, that a dnel was fought at Mosley’s Ferry, on the Abbeville side of the Savannah river on the 4th inst., between Capt. Birch and Mr Knight, young lawyers from Elber- ton. The distance was eight paces, and there was to be no proposition' of adjust ment previous to the third fire. At the sec ond-fire, however, Mr. Knight was. shot through both thighs. The Wound, though painful, is a flesh one, and not regarded dan gerous. As usual, the fight waa about lady- MARRIED.

Just as surely as you shake to-day. or will shake to-morrow, HOSTRTTER’S CELEBRATED STOMACH BITTERS will extinguish the disease un der which yon labor. Had yon taken this genial tonic as a preventive, you would have nj need of it as a cure, for it renders the Bystem Impervious to all miasmatic fevers. But since you neglected the pre caution, rid yourselves without delay of the com plaint by resorting to the only reliable remedy.*- Break the chUls with HOSTRTTER’S BITTERS, and they will return no more. This is the experience of thousands, and it will be yours. Quinine is a slow means of reUef; it to nauseous to tbe last degree Is more dangerous than the malady Itself; In many cases it utterly falls. How different Is the effect of the Brrruns. Their emotive action is rapid; they are agreeable to the palate: they are not only entirely harmlens, but tend inevitably to etrengthea the con stitution and prolong life; they never bav. failed, and it is confidently assumed that they never can fail iu any case of Fever and Ague, however inveterale in Its character.
