We publish in another column the pro ceedings of the meeting held in Ccduin bus, to ratify the action of the Philadel phia Convention. The Sun says it was largely attended by the most staunch and respectable citizens of that community, and that its proceedings were characterized by harmony and good feeling. From the ex hibition of sentiment gathered from the meet ing, the some paper adds, the people of that city are a nnit in their endorsement and sup port of the party who proposed to meet, to fight, and overthrow Radicalism in the coun try. says: ‘•on that question we believe the majority of the Northern people do not hold with Messrs. Stevens end Sumner. They ire tired of i method of ‘reconstruc tion’ which appears endless, and which after eight months has recouteToeted nothing.. They want some thing done, and thn fee tSdScitoB tha* ^Congress has not done, bnt only obstructed everything.

This is the man whom the Northern Radicals are taking to their bosoms, and whose vote for the Vice Presume^ at the next election he ia seeking to obtain by denouncing and slandering and cursing Ste fooplo ofhieqprn State. HON. A. H. STEPHENS AS ALECTUREK. It is announced that Mr. Stephens has been engaged to deliver a lecture before the Young Men’s Association of Chicago during its next course, and that the Milwaukee people are discussing the advisability of inviting him to lecture in that city. The Northern paper giving this information, commenting upon the personal appearance of Mr. Stephens, says it makes much against him. His health, since childhood, has been bad, and he looks like a skeleton over which the skin has been drawn and then smoke-dried. His voice, when he commences to speak, is shrill, ami unlike that of any other man’s voice we ever heard. As he progresses it increases in vol ume, and in the talent of the orator the au dience seem to lose sight of the oddity ot his appearance. Southhrn it is now too late.' Speaking of the failure of the last Coo gress to settle the great questions now agi tating the public mind throughout the coun try, it expresses the belief that the nation is threatened with the gravest misfortunes that can happen to a country, aad that political society is bold together by the, mtre'"'good sense and forbearance of the citizens. Its anxiety in regard to the future of the coun try is mauifest^q^ieq it sa; “Our ofiljFsafet to 8tri£t.|ictjptitut ^ that, aa some well-meaning iuen we are now running are infinitely greater. Under the Constitution, with all parte of our complex govern ment working with regularity, we may hope to gain all that ie desirable by the safe course of argu ment and discussiqft. Wit caqaeft ihin ftf fn any other way securely. Wo cannot eatabllan the^millennium by a military general order; we cannot put off upon the General Government the work which citizens must do. We cannot achieve in Mississippi, by bayo net, a reform of public opinion which was effected in Massacuusetts, and New York and Ohio, only by long, patient, and pers>stent argument.” The same paper urges upon the. Badifnl party, as essential to its continued supre macy in the national councils, not only the admission of Southern representatives, but the necessity of bolding a great National Convention in some Southern tity, with a view to theorganization of ibe lUdical.pB^tt in every Southern State, and that the best speakers from the North be sent down to lay the Republican doctrine before the Southern people. It closes its appeal to its party friends by adjuring the Radicals everywhere to put in nomination conservative men, if they wish to defeat the Johnson party, who see the importance, first of all, ot admitting all the Spates to representation, and thus bringing the : cohniry back under the tejM guard of the Constitution, and rescuing it from its present revolutionary condition * ANNOUNCEMENT.

EMANUEL, an*4-tf ; President, FROM NEW YORK. I« ia now certain that the people of North Carolina lisTe rejected the amendments to theif Constitution proposed by their Conven tion at Its late sessiou. Returns from all but twelve counties allow a majority for rejection of 1,262, and the remaining counties are likely lo increase it. Prince Bismarck.—As a reward for the consummate abilities displayed by the Prus sian Prime Minister in the recent campaign against Austria, he is to be elevated to the rank of Prince. In this connection, we are reminded of an anecdote concerning Bis marck, which is told by tho Pail Mall Gazette. In the year 1859, Napoleon and Count Ca- vonr, the great Italian statesman, met i n the south of France, and the conversation turn ing upon European affairs, Napoleon told his guest that there were three master minds in Europe, “two of whom are present in this room.” The absent one was Bismarck, whose great qualites as a leader Napoleon, even at that early day, dad perceived. Cali Report of Indian Massacres fornia Denied.—General Grant has recently received from General McDowell, command ing the Department of California, an em phatic contradiction of the report lately in circulation to the effect that the Indians hud assembled in great numbers at Paradise Val ley, and had massacred a number of the white residents. From representations received at the General’s headquarters, it is believed that these reports are without foundation in fact, and that they were circulated in order to secure the presence of more troops. The Southern Radical Convention. —The radicals of the North are determined to make a vast show of strength and enthusiasm at the convention to be held in Philadelphia on the 3d proximo, nominally by the Southern radicals. Delegations from the radical States and cities, composed df fheir mdsl'‘ehtretae —mill W." in n * - . —. 1,ML. men, wiU be in kttendaTice ’'as' adrffitRses. The object of the. original call for--^his con vention was to enable Union - citizens of Southern States, like General Hamilton, of Texas, to express their approbation of the measures of Congress, and exhibit their Ne cessity. at Ain Line Railroad.—The Gaines- (Ga.) Eagle says Mr.' E: jl. 'Jhhnsoq Tnc vi'le has just returned from a meeting of the offi cers of the Air Line Railroad, held at New York. He reports Unit the road will be built from Atlanta to Gainesville, and that from that point two surveys will be made— one to Charleston, 8. C., via Anderson C. H , and the other to Charlotte or Saulsbury, N. C., via Pendleton, S. C. This road, it is claimed, will, when built, be the shortest route from New York to New Orleans—a* direct a tine, as practicable, and that the trip between tbrkwo points ever it will be made in fifty hours. A New iNyENTjoN.—The needle gun has met its maifb—a bullet-proof cloth iag for soldlrs. Afthe Belgiato TtrAaiioW, VirVol unteer Shooting Ground, the thing was ex hibited for the first time by ill inventor, a M Bernard, and in the most satisfactory man ner, namely: by standing fire- himself at a hundred yards, having previously shown that he wore nothing under bis cloak but a shirt and vest- A-cooical ballet afnmk him in the breast'; it Halted itself aod fell down at his feet; be pigfcsfife up and showed it to the spectators.

Singula* Details of a Case of Cholera. —1- Deckax, formerly a Confederate sol dier, just from Alabama was attacked with cholera in 8LLcnis, Mo., last Thursday, -and was taken to the health office. He begged for something to quench his thirst, and was '1 of brandy. He still pleaded [ more to drink, anything that attendant then gave 'him a Jvink of foe-water, and he immediately tawtoi over and breathed his last The success of the Philadelphia Conven tion, and the pdpular acceptance of its -pHit- form, are evidently spreading dismay through the Radical ranks. THE PROCLAMATION. Immediately upon the adjournment of the great National Union Convention, which gave to the country some promise of future peace and tranquility, the President, by proc lamation, declares that Texas, having Inaug urated a local civil Government, is restored to her place in the Union; and he crowns the work of restoration with the welcome announcement that “ the war is at an end, and peace, order, tranquility and civil au thority now exist in and throughout the whole of the United States of America.” If this act on the part of the President had the effect of restoring the Union in fact, as well as in name, it might be accepted by the Southern people as good news. But it is gratifying to know that the proclamation is a complete abdication of all the military poworo with which the President Was clothed by Congress during the war. It-has been stated that this consequence woulcl iiave attended the previous proclamation, only that it did not iDdnde Texas, tebicli had been kept back in her preii'minary steps for restoration by the treachery of her Provisional Governor, Jack Hamilton. The “insurrection” having been regarded by Congress as one whole, and nof as ^ serkjcf seperate insurrections in several 8latesifibfe extraordinary powers did not expire ns long as there was any place where the “insurrec tion” had not been declared extinct. There were only eleven States that seceded; but in consequence of this local “insurrec tion,'’ confined to one section of the country, the President was empowered by Congress to suspend the habeas corpus throughout the United States, or any part of them, and’ (bis power wu vested in him until,the end. of the the “rebellion." But Texas having com pleted the construction of a .loyal Stale Gov ernment, and the President having declared the “ insurrection " at an end in that State, as well as in all the others, the whole system of military interference with the regular course of law jails jo the groi (COMMUNICATED. ] A "\ Sanitary Reforms. The. journals of this city, during the past week,have furnished us with facts, which show that We need a change in the means by which the sahitary affairs of this city are now man aged. The members of our present “Board ot Health” complain that they meet, time after time, and make suggestions which are not adopted by those having the power to enforce them. The authority of the “Board” should be supreme in any matter relating to the health of the city. Thousands of lives have undoubtedly been saved in the city of New York, during the past three months, by the excellent system by which their sanitary affairs are managed. Now, while we do not advocate such a complicated and expensive system for a city as small as Savannah, we respectfully sub mit that the present arrangement has been faithfully tried and found wanting, and pro fiting by the experience of others, we desire a better as soon as possible. The Board of Health and the Health Officer should be given full power to act. It appears to us that they should be assisted by a corps of inspectors, who might or might not be members of their body, who should each be allotted a district—divide the city into eight or ten districts—whose duty it should be to inspect carefully their respective districts, and report all nuisauces immediately to the Health Officer, who should fill out printed orders to have the same abated, and band them to the Chief of Police, who could charge his subordinates wi;h their execution Any citizen observing a filthy corner in any yard, street or lane, ought to report the same at once to the inspector of the district, or Board, and the complaint would he at tended to immediately. The Board should have entire management of the Dispensary, inspect its condition fre quently—or appoint a committee to do so— regplate the supplies of medicine, pass all bills which are incurred to keep the city in good sanitary condition, if, on examination they are found correct, and enbmit them to the City Council for their action. It seems as if there are young medical men enough in Savannah who would be wil ling to act as inspectors, and take a pride in keeping their respective districts in good order. We believe several such are now members of the Board of Health, and most earnest and energetic in the discharge of onnd, and things rhieh - th*y Wbie revert to ihet Condition frf Vrhi before the war. This, at least, ia the inter pretation of the proclamation as given by a Northern journal supposed to be in the con fidence of the Administration. Let us all hope that it ^js correct, And that c shall hate no fflhre military frlbnnals' in wc the South. The following from the Quitman (Ga.) Banner is replete with good suggestion--and sound sense: Shabl vuIi HoBth PeIAt Osrrroi j—A very grave question is presented to the people of the South.

While they will be adding to their own ease and domestic happiness, by planting only enough cotton for ndme consumption, they will teach their enemies a lesson as sad in Us history as it will be disastrous in its results. Where all are poor, poverty is no disgrace; and now that we can afford to be poor, let us try the experiment of fine gardens, full Cribs, fat hogs a ad splendid horses.
