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 con Telegraph, 12/A. By Telegraph. NIGHT DISPATCHES. FROM EUROPE. BT ATLANTIC CAMS.

JOHN WILLIAMSON, oc24 City Treasurer 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.
