TO OUR COUNTRY PRIEsDS.
As much interest is felt throughout the country in
regard to the prospects of the cotton snd other crops
ne will bo grstefnl to our planting friends snd others
n the interior for Information on that subject. Those
who have opportunities for obtaining valuable infor
mation in regard to the growing crops, the working
of the free-labor system, and kindred matters, of gen
eral interest, will confer a favor by communicating
i tie same to uh.
Travelers' Insurance Company.
We direct special attention to the adver
tisement, in another column, of the Travelers
Insurance Company of Hartford, Connecti
cut, which has an agency in this city. This
company now issues policies insuring against
loss of life from any cause, whether disease
or accident, with weekly compensation for
disabling accident, thus combining life and
accident insurance under one policy, at the
lowest rates of premium. This is a new Ini
excellent feature engrafted upon the old sys
tem of insurance, and is one that cannot be
too highly commended to the consideration
of all classes of the people.
The Pending Amendment.
That our readers may oe kept well in
formed of the provisions of the amendment
to the Federal Constitution passed by Con
gress and unw before the Slates for ratifica
tion, we republish the enactment below. The
fute of the measure has been definitely settled,
for the present at least, by the late elections
"'by Conservative triumph in Maryland am!
Delaware will preclude its adoption by eilhei
of those States. These, with Kentucky am
the ten excluded States, will make thirtecr
opposed to it. The whole uumber of the
States of the Union is now thirty-six. Colo
rado and Nebraska will, ia n^probability, b
admitted next winter, which will make tin-
whole number thirty-eight. But take it at
thirty-six, the three fourths required to con
snmmate a Constitutional Amendment will
be twenty-seven, the number upon which
the Secretary of State officially proclaimed
the amendment abolishing and prohibit
ing slavery as part and parcel of Ihe Federal
Constitution. In addition, therefore, to the
nineteen Northern States that have gone fot
1 ‘the Radicals, eight of the Southern States,
including Delaware, will be required to make
this new amendment a part of the Constitu
tion. This is impracticable. The National
Intelligencer, which is supposed to reflect
the views and purposes of the Admiuistra
tion, speculating upon the consequenfces of
the defeat of the amendment, says : “The
adoption or rejection of the amendment is
now likely to be the rallying ground of po
litical parties for the next campaign, and ar.
it is hardly possible that the Radicals will be
able to create another wave of popular feel
ing which will blind the judgment of the
people, by introducing extraneous issues, wo
are likely to have a thorough discussion and
a perfect understanding on all sides of the
nature of that amendment anil of the princi
ples involved in its adoption. The amend
ment makes so sweeping a change as to
justly entitle it to be called revolutionary,
let if the people are really bent on its adop
tion, after a thorough understanding of its
character, we can acquiesce, while demurrin
to the wisdom of their course. But whui
we have always strongly protested against,
and shall to the bitter end, is the effort to
make its adoption the condition for the exer
cise of their undoubted rights on the part of
any section of the country. That is to make
the rejection of changes of the organic law
punitive, is to introduce a style of punish
ment unknown to the law and the Constitu
tion, and to set a precedent fraught with
mischief.”
As matters now stand it is impossible b
conjecture even when the Southern States
will be represented in Congress. Certainly
not until after the Presidential election ol
1868.
JOINT KESOLUIION8 FltUPOSItiO AN AMENDMENT TO TUE
CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES.
Resolved bv tbe Senate and House of Representa
tives of tile United States of America, in Congress as
sembled, (two-tbirds of both bonses concurring,)
That the following article bo proposed to the Legis
latures of the several States as au amendment to the
Constitution of the United States, which, when rati
fied by three-fourtlis of said Legislatures, shall be
valid as part of the Constitution, namely:
.Article XIY.—Section 1. All persons born or
naturalized in the United States, and subject to tbe
jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United StateR
and of the states wherein they reside. No State shall
make or enforce any law which shall abridge the
privileges or immunities of citizens of the United
States; nor shall any State deprive any person of lite,
liberty, or property, without due process of law, nor
deny to any person within its jurisdiction tbe equal
protection of the laws.
Sec. 2. Representatives shall be apportioned among
the several Stales according to their respective num
bers, counting the whole number of persons in each
State, excluding Indiana not taxed. Rut when the
right to vote at any election for the choice of electors
for President and Vice President of the United States,
representatives in Congress, the executive and ju
dicial officers of a State, or the members of tbe Legis
lature thereof, is denied to any of the male inhabi
tants of such State, being 21 years of age, and citizens
of the United States, or in any way abridged, except
for participation in rebellion or other crime, the
basis of representation therein shall be reduced in tbe
proportion which tbe number of such male citizens
■ball bear to tbe whole number of male citizens 21
yeara of age in each State.
Sec, 3. No person shall be a Senator or Repre
sentative in Congreaa, or Elector of President or Vice
President, or hold any office, civil or military, under
the United States, or under any State, who, having
previously taken an oath as a member of Congress,
or as an officer of tbe United States,or as a member of
any State Legislature, or as an executive or judicial
officer of any State, to support tbe Constitution of tbe
United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or
rehelliMi against the same, or giving aid or comfort
to the enemies thereof. But Congress may, by a
vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disa
bility.
Sec. 4. The validity of the public debt of the Uni
ted States, authorized by law, including debts in
curred for payment of pensiouB and bonnties for
services in suppressing insurrection or rebellion,
shall not be questioned. But neither tbe United
States nor any other State Bliall assume or pay any
debt or obligation incurred in aid of insurrection or
rebellion against the United States, or any claim for
the loss or emancipation of any slave; but all such
debts, obligations and claims shall be held illegal and
Sec. B. The Congress shall have power to enforce,
by. appropriate legislation, tho provisions of this
article. '
Oeobge’S. Boutavell delivered a lecture
in Boston on Wednesday evening on politi
cal Rffairs. He strongly advocated universal
suffrage, and said that it was probably the
intention of Congress to establish Territorial
governments in the lately rebellions States,
and to declare who ot the citizens shall and
who shall not vote. The President, he said,
ought to be punished if he is guilty of un
constitutional acts. —
Death of Bishop Rutledge.—The Talla
hassee papers announce the death, in that
city, on Monday last, of Bishop Rutledge, of
the Episcopal Diocese of Florida, after a
long and painful illness of cancer of the
mouth.
Ednstlsasl.
We have already referred, in commenda
tory terms, to the “Southern University Se
ries,” excellent text books for schools and
universities, prepared by distinguished scho
lars and friends of education in the South,
and published by Richardson & Co., 540
Broadway, New Ydrk.
We learn from the Augusta Press that the
following books of the series, having been
examined, and being approved by the Bo aid
of Directors of the Augusta Free Softool, will
soon be introduced into that old and valued
institution :
The Southern Pictorial Primer, or First
Reader.
The Southern Pictorial Second Reader.
The Southern Pictorial Third Reader.
The Southern Pictorial Fourth Reader.
Mr. Edmondson is now on a visit to Mil-
ledgeville, for the purpose of conferring with
the proper persons there, in order to secure
the introduction of the series into the public
schools of Georgia.
We sincerely hope that Mr. Edmondson
will be successful in drawing the attention
of the Legislature to this important matter,
and that the Southern series of school books,
so highly approved by the teachers of Vir
ginia and North Carolina may be introduced
and maintained by State authority in the
schools of the State. There are other rea
sons besides those of economy' why the peopiv
of the South should have a uniform series of,
primary school books, from which the chil
dren of the South could learn no lessons of
falsehood and shame.
It would be well ifj through the tictiou
of the respective Legislatures, a uniform
series of approved elementary books, such
as the “Southern University Series” could
be introduced in the public aDd primary
schools, at least, of all the Southern Stales-
To say nothing of the exceptional character
of many of the school-books introduced in
our schools, the continual changes that are
beiDg made involving the purchase by parents
of entire new sets of school books every tew
months, as those in use are superseded by
some new compilation, is a serious item of
useless expenditure which the South is at
this lime ill able to afford. Sound cduca
tional policy as well as economy require a
change in this matter, and we sincerely hope
that our State Legislature will set the ex
ample of lending its countenance and sup
port to the much needed reform in the or ay
proposed by Mr. Edmondson.

Gold In tbe Treasury.
It has been stated by tbe Washington pa
pers that there were a hundred millions of
gold in the Treasury on the 1st day of the
present month. The New York Herald, com
menting on this remarkable tact, says the rc
sources of the Government in gold, as well as
in its meaDS generally, are amply sufficient
to warrant tbe resumption of specie payment,
but doubts the propriety of doing so uulillhc
financial system becomes thoroughly adjust
ed. It is of tbe opinion that we should not
resort to any forcing process and thereby
disturb too suddenly existing values and ob
ligations, as we shall grow up in a short time
to a specie basis naturally and healthfully.
We have, in fact, to-day a better, or at least
as good ft foundation for our currency as
England has. T-he ordinary reserve cf the
Bank of England is fourteen millions ster
ling, or in rouud numbers seventy million
dollars. All the circulation of bank notes,
all the exchange business, the credit of the
Government and all the paper representa
tives of value are based upon this. Yet we
have in the Treasury alone, independent ol
specie in the banks and in private hands,
thirty million dollars more gold than the Bank
of England bolds. Besides this our resources
are greater than those of Great Britain, while
we are receiving all tbe time a never failing
stream and increase of the precious metals
from California and our other States and Ter
ritories. We are better able to pay specie,
dollar for dollar, for our current paper obli
gations to-day than England or any other
great nation in Europe.
The opinion has been expressed by able
financiers that the Government should not
reduce hastily the volume or currency to
reach specie payments. That it can be ilone
by establishing, first, t a sound financial sys
tem, which will emancipate this country from
European influences. This will take a little
time and sound statesmanship. Should the
attempt be made to force specie payments,
it would plunge the country into bankruptcy,
and with all our resources, place our finan
cial system at the mercy of English capital
ists. It is said that $24,000,000 of gold are
now|being let oat to pay the interest on the
Five-twenty bonds, and the amount thus
thrown into general circulation through the
channels|of trade must tend to lower the
preminm on gold. „
Southerners Allowed to Vote In the
Northern Stntes.
A novel and interesting question relating
to the exercise of suffrage in the Northern
States, has jnst been adjudicated in the Su
preme Court at Brooklyn, New York. A
Mr. Wheeler, an ex-Confederate surgeon,
who located in New York city since the war,
attempted to vote at a recent election in that
city, but his ballot was rejected on the ground
that he was disfranchised by reason of hav
ing borne arms against the Government of
the United States. The decision rendered
in the Court by Judge Gilbert affirms
the right of Mr. Wheeler to vote, and dis
tinctly pronounces that he has not been dis
franchised. This decision discloses the sin
gular fact that the men it is proposed to
disfranchise in the Sonth can, by removing
to a Northern State and remaining the re
quired time, exercise the right of suffrage.
In the South they are “rebels,” and unwor
thy to be trusted with suffrage; but if they
go North they are good patriots and proper
voters. Judge Gilbert, in his decision, guys;
“The inclination in my mind is verystroDg
towards bis disfranchisement, but I cannot
find any authority to do so. The fact of his
having been a rebel, tbe war being over, and
be being no longer in arms against the Gov
ernment, so far as I can discover, has de
prived him of no right or immunity what
ever. It has only subjected him to punish
ment tor treason.
We do not know tbe political opinions of
Judge Gilbert, but it is fair to presume from
the phraseology of tbe above extract that he
is a Republican, if not a Radical. In thus
deciding'according to law, and discarding
partisan considerations and influences, be
has set a good example to Congress, which at
its last session moved in precisely an oppo
site direction, regardless of the Constitution
as expounded by the Supreme Court of New
York.
It would appear that tbe British Govern
ment are not disposed to regard a Fenian
rising in Ireland this year as altogether im
probable. A dispatch by the Cable informs
us that they are quietly making prepara-
itary, of course—for the contin-
klection retubxs thus far received
Missouri indicate the election of Rad-
tbe 1st (gain), Hd, IYth, Vth, VHth,
,Vmth Districts. The three other dis-
doubtful, and may have been ear
ths Democrats. The Legislature is
Radical.
Hoisted hr Hla swi
The Radicals in Maryland imposed certain
restrictions upon the elective franchise which
they supposed would enable them to carry
tbe State by an overwhelming majority. Rad
ical Commissioners had entire control of tbe
ballot box, and hoped, by their partisan mean
ness snd partiality, to prevent tbe peopi®
from expressing their sovereign will at the
polls. They never dreamed of defeat, espe
cially in Baltimore. Tbe return of their can
didates for Congress and tbe Legislature was
regarded as a fixe^ fact. They asked the
most absurd questions of voters, and threw
every obstacle in the way of a free and fair
ballot. But all tbeir machinations failed to give
them victory. Hundreds upon whom they re
lied for support became disgusted at their
base conduct, aud quietly voted for tbe Con
servative candidates. They were blown up
by their own magazine of corruption, which
has so bewildered them that tbe leaders are
unable to account for the explosion- Some
of them say that their defeat was owing to
the fact that so many voters took the oath
prescribed by tbe odious Registry law, and
impudently impute dishonest motives to the
electors who faithfully followed all the re
quirements exacted from them. In their
confused anxiety to frame an excuse for their
overthrow, they are making themselves su
premely ridiculous. We would advise them to
pansq and recover their consciousness before
reasoning upon the causes of a CalaM'rophe
they so little expected.
With the exception of tbe unexpected
gains in Baltimore, says the Richmond
Times, our gloomiest anticipations with refe
rence to the results of the elections on Tues
day have been more than realized. The wave
of Radicalism rolls on almost unbroken, and
the noble efforts of the city of New York ti
rescue the Empire State have been unsuc
cessful. These results have surprised none
amoDg us but that class of sanguine gentle
men who were constantly predicting mira
cles for the salvation of the Southern Con
federacy during tbe darkest hoars of its brief
history. In wlmt way the Radicals will
abuse the vast powers which they now pos
sess it is as yet impossible to conjecture.
They msy either insist upon tbe adoption of
the Constitutional Amendment, as the mea
sure of our humiliation, or they may discard
it and demand something still more degrading
at our hands. From the present temper of
tbe Northern masses, and from the enormous
majorities given in every instance to such
monsters of Radical depravity as Butler and
Stevens, they appear ready, to approve tbe
most oppressive acts. It is evidently not in
the power of tbe broken, defeated and dis
pirited Conservatives of the North to aid or
protect us. They have been swept away like
chaff and will be heard of no more, for-de
feated parlies in the Northern States are not
.remarkable for longevity of life.
In tbe presence of this hnge, resistless and
merciless party, what shall the Sonth do?
Experience has taught us that we can gain
nothing by truckling submission, neither can
we weaken our enemies by loud and inces
sant denunciations. But one course is now
open to us, which is consistent with both
honor and dignity. We can refuse to be
made parties to the schemes which have
been devised for our degradation. We can
thus preserve that honor which defeat could
uot take from us, and trust to tbe healing in
fluence ot time and belter counsels. Bnt, come
what may, the Southern people should enter
into no covenant or terms which will brand
them with dishonor. They are now faithfully
obeying the laws and the Constitution of the
United States. They will do nothing more.
The President and the Elections.—A
special dispatch to the New York Times, of
the 7th, says: A good deal of speculation
Is indulged in here as to the feelings
and opinions of the President with
regard to the result of the elections of yes
terday. Those who have visited Mr. John
son, this evening, find him in very good spir
its and not at all disturbed by the political
aspect. Many suppose that, in view of the
results of yesterday’s voting, the President
has some intention of recommending the
Southern States to adopt the proposed
amendment to the Constitution; bnt those
who look for such action on the part of the
Executive will be disappointed. Mr. John
son does not regard it as his duty to make
anj* recommendation on this subject whatever
He will leave the matter in the hands of the
Southern people, to be disposed of by them
without interference or suggestion from him.
If the constitutional number of States shall
adopt the amendment, Mr. Johnson will bow
to the will of the people thus lawfully ex
pressed.
The colored convention was again in ses
sion at Indianapolis last week. Resolutions
were adopted denouncing President Johnson
and reproving Congress for hesitating to
confer impartial suffrage on account of miser
able considerations of policy.
The Macon Telegraph of the 10th says
that a gentleman named Wade, while at
tempting to jnmp from the Savannah train,
at the crossing at the Trotting Track, was in
stantly killed.
The National Express.—We infer, from
indications, that this institution has suc
cumbed to the heavy blows of its enemies,
and the indifference of its friends. We have
sustained it from motives {of public policy,
believing that whole competition in every
business in essential to public interests, and
we regret to see that it has gone bv the
board. The thousands of disabled soldiers,
too, to whom it gave employment, most be
sent adrift. We learn that the agent at this
g lace has received instructions to forward
is books and property to Charleston.—Ma

A NEW AND GRAND EPOCH IN MED
ICINE.
Da. Maogiel is the founder of a new Medical Sys
tem I The quantitarlans, whose vast internal doses
enfeeble the stomach and paralyze the bowels, mn«i
give precedence to tbe man who restores health and
appetite, with from one to two of his extraordinary
Pills, and cures the most virulent sores with a box
or so of his wonderfnl and all-healing Salve. These
two great specifics of tbe Doctor are fast supersed
ing all the stereotyped nostrums of the day. Extra
ordinary cares by Magglel’s Pills and Salve have
opened the eyes of the public to the inefficiency of
the tso-eailed) remedies of others, and upon which
people have so long blindly depended. Maggicl's
Pills are not ol the class that are swallowed by tbe
dozen, and of which every box fall taken creates an
absolute necessity for another. One or two of Mag-
giel's Pills suffices to place the bowels in perfect or.
der, tone the stomach, create an appetite, and ren
der the spirits light and buoyant.
There Is no griping, and no reaction in the form
of constipation.
If the liver is affected, its functions arc restored;
and ot the nervous system is feeble, it is invigorated.
This la9t quality makes the medicines very desirable
for the wants of delicate females.
Ulcerous and eruptive diseases are literally extin
guished by the disinfectant power of Magglel’s Salve.
In facl, it is here announced that
MAGGIEL'S BILIOUS DYSPEPTIC AND I)IAR-
RHCEA PILLS •
cure where ali all others fail.
While for Barns, Scalds, Cats and a'l abrasions of
the akin
MAGGIEL'S SALVE
Is Infallible.
