The Plasaeiel Revuliloa.
Our Northern exchanges are commenting
on the very alarming indications of an ap
proaching financial revulsion as manifested
in the sudden decline ©f leading stocks in
the New York market. The Baltimore Ga-
* zette says: The terrific break down has been
so sudden and so rapid that it has quite out
stripped the calculations of the most prudent
brokers and h is more than swept away all
m irgins which had been put up as security.
When a stbamsbip stock, remarks the Gazette,
.declines steadily from 210 to IK), or trom 130
to 30, and when sixty per cent, of this de
cline occurs in a single day, it is certainly
very hard for a broker to protect bimsell
with the ordinary margin of ten per cent.,
and It is not surprising to hear of the numer
ous failures which are acknowledged, if not
announced, in New York and elsewhere,
among business uieu, or to learn of the uiih-
forlunes which h ive happened to retired gen
tlemen who were above want but who still
wanted more.
The New York Herald says the recent
smash in Atlantic Mail it regards as but u
precursor of similar disasltr', aud tliiuk.-
there is hardly more confidence felt in Pa
ctfic Mail, than iu Atlantic. It says that the
universal bursting up of such railroad stocks
as are used lor “short ” sales and “cor
ners,” and the caving in ol all other fancy
securities—express, telegraph, mining and
the whole list of kite-Hying rubbish—would
scarcely take any person by surprise.
'The Herald attributes the cause of these
pending calamities to several sources : - 1st.
The unsettled condition ol the government.
2d. The waot of confidence iu the meq who
nc-mirol affairs iu- Washington. It thinks
these c iuses 4 have produced loss of confi
dencq, uneasiness, and the general desireio
get clear of stock operations, aud an unwil
lingness to make auy farther loans ou such
collaterals. ■>
A Hard Hit.—The New York Tribune
defends its habit of catling Gay. Seymour
an 3 others with whom it differs in opinion
liars, oir the ground that “lyingla not mere
ly in bad taste, but is a flagrant moral wrong,
a wrong alike to those who are belied and to
those who.are misled by the falsehood,” and
suggests to its cotempQcajy, the Times, that
that paper “would be more tftful, more in
flueniial, and more respectec^if it thought
«o too.” Whereupon the Times retorts as
follows: ‘‘We are grateful to the Tnbune for
its advioe^ but if that journal supposes that
we have per used-its editorial articles regu
larly and thoughtfully—not to say pray« r-
fully—since the early Spring ' of 1841, when
it first began to practice its peculiar theories
~of political discussion, until Ibe pn sent
time, without acquiring a profound aud
rooted dislike of ‘lying’—both as a mutter ol
‘Chute’ and as a ‘flagrant moral wroug’—that
journal does very grtht injustice to its own
powers, and underrates prodigiously the in
finance both of its precepts on the one aide
and its example on the other."

RIGHT.
Thb Urge Ihrn-nut nod the earnest seal of
those preieat at the Conservative meeting
last ui jlit, afforded gratifying assurance that
our people are at length fully aroused to the
importance of the pending election. Mca°-
w esjwt re adopted to briug out tbe lull Con
servative vote, and to prevent as far as pos
sible the shameless system of intimidation
and illegal voting, which has thus far char-
Tthe election. Itrthe course ofth 6“
proceedings the following resolutions were
unanimously adopted :
Resolved, That the Conservative party of
Onatbam county pledge themselves to the
colored men acting with them to protect
them in the exercise of their rights uow, and
to remember-their fidelity in future.
Kpsolved, That each aud every white man
here pledges himself to attend at the (foils
jtemoLow and on each succeeding day of
be election, and to give all Conservative
neu encouragement io their right to vote,
•tnd that every Conservative man in Chat
ham county be requested to give his pres
ence at tbe polls for the same purpose.
Resolved, That the Conscvra'ive mer
chants aud business .meo of the city be re
quested to close their offices, stores and
places of .busineak during the days of elec
ion, and to attend- at the polls', and that cuU8e> Today testimony of still greater
hese resolutions be published iu the pipers . „ 4 „,? W.I.
of the city. *
The heart-aickening spectacle of yrster-
!ay, when hundreds of ignorant negroes,
under tbe absolate control and drill of their
eas ignorant but more despicable leaders,
were maisualed to the polls like a herd ol
swine and pal through the forms of t-xei-
oisi ig tbe franchise of American freemen.
>f the obligation and solemnity of which
hty knew nothing, and in which they had
no judgment or will of their own—should
quicken the patriotic impulses of every true
man,and call forth his utmost effort to rescue
he State from degradation aud ruin. The
nbame, injustice, outrage and peril with
which wc are threatened, is more than our
people can endure, and if we would avert
frym ourselves and the deluded dupes who
in their unsuspecting ignorance are used by
an unscrupulous corrupt and maliguant fac
\\oh for our oppression and humiliation,
from the fearful couaequeuces which must
inevitably follow, we must exert every means
in onr power to prevent the consummation
of tbe most stupendous wrong ever inflicted
upon a civilized people
Now is the crisis of our fate And if we would
have the approval of our own consciences,
tnd the respect of good men, let us do all iu
jurpower to avert the Impending evil.
CObORKD RKFUUEBS VERSUS COL
OHED COR SERVATIVKS.
It is worthy of remark, and we notice the
fact with pride and pleasure, that the better
class of our colored population of tbe city—
men of character, who have an interest in
tae welfare of the city aud State—were not
in the herds of refugee vagabonds who, iu
their rags and filth, and armed with clubs,
hung around the polls yesterday like a
dock of buzzards around a butcher pen,
cursing, blustering, insulting and iutimi
dating any one of then own color who dared to
vote according to his own judgment. The
miserable creatures seemed to have hut one
idea, and that was that Republicanism was
only another name for hostility to the white
men, and that as the enemies of all decent
white men, they were bound to vote and
force all others of their color to,
vote the Republican ticket. Their attitudi
yesterday, as a race, was an open declara
tion of unreasouing anlagouism to the white
people of Georgia, and so far as they were
concerned their conduct left no grouuds for
hope of mutual good umleishindiug aud
kindly relations hereafter. The white nieu
now know what to expect from them in the
future, and will govern themselves accord
ingly. Thus alienated it remains to lie seen
who will be the losers by.the estrangement.
Avery differin’- feeling is manifested by a
•arge portion of tbe more intelligent aud
worthy colored men of Savannah. Yeuerday,
like the whites, im st of them remained away
from the polls, where they knew they would
not bo permitted to cast their votes in peace.
To-day they will bo assured of protection
from violence', and will vote as ireemen
should vole, according to the dictates of
their own judgment.
Now and Then.—At the late unnual ban
quet of tbe State Rights Society of the city
of New York, held on the return of the
birthday of Thomas Jefferson, Hon. Thomas
H. Seymour, of Connecticut, made a spirited
speech, in the coarse of which he said :
“Ll those days when the Sonthe.ru coun
try was iu no danger from Great Britain, but
when tbe North was selected by the British
ministry and the kiog for the first exercise
of his tyranny, then Jefferson and the m«m
of his day in --Virginia made the cause of
Massachusetts and Rhode Island the came
of the entire South, and came io the rescue
ot the North, (eries of “Yes, that's si-,”)
reversing the' condition of things at the pies-
onl time. And now tell m<: what is tlm duty
of the people of the North towards the
Sou*h. aud what is tbe fact? What, h a
brought this great change about? Iu the
year 1773, ih the midst of that dead calm,

and Patrick fleuiy pot together iu the old
RMejgb tavern, in Williamsburg, Va , and
there inaugurated tbe celebrated committee
ot correspondence with the legislatures of
ilie different colonies, which, under Provi
dence, led to the first colonial Congress i
British AmeHcft, (applause;) and this pro
duced that first jjeim of independence wfiiuL

tution which is now menaced by the, monar
chists in Congress who are endeavoring to
destroy all ihit:**) bequeathed to us by our
conscript fathers.” (Applause.)
Remarking on the above, the Baltimore
Son says:
-The historical truth of the above will
hardly be questioned. We may add that of
.the sympathy expressed by tbfe people, of
tbe South, aud of tbe liberal contributions
iu provisions and otherwise, made to Boston

over the South, while the Treasury was be
iug robbej, aud Johnson’s parasites having

journed, Butler’s fellow conspirators even
uauging their heads in shame.
The course of General Butler in the con
duct of this trial is no ieriH a disgrace to his
party than to himself. They selected him
to badger’aud confuse witnesses, to bluster
and bully, and insult Court and counsel,
and to conduct everything iu regular “Old
Bailey” style, resorting to most disreputable
and lowest order of peUilogying.
The result of this is, that hu has been call
ed io order by Ibe Court; he has beeu snub
bed. by Sianb *ry aud Evarts ; be cowed and
lied out of it like a dog before the assembled
multitude, when Reverdy Johnson called
him to account for au iuiputaiiou on bis
motives iu propounding a question. Aud
dually, to-day he was pointedly rebuked by
the Otiiel Justice, who ba9 borne bis iuso-
fonce until it b< came intolerable. Tbe Chief
Justice hart admitted certain evidence With
ibe silent consent ot tbe Seuale, and as the
witness was proceeding, Batter said, “I wish
to clear our skirts of thii, it is put iu with
out our consent.
The Chief Justice’s face flushed as he rn9e
and sternly said : “The evidence goes iu by
direction of the Senate and the pre.-iding of
ficer.’’ Butler was silenced for a while. His
associates are offended at his course, but not
so much for the manner as for thrusting
himself forward to the exclusion of them
ad, and they cannot console themselves that
as the work has been his principally, so tbe
dishonor will most altucli to him. It will
cling to them all alike, aud the infamy tbey
deserve will be meted out to them during
life, lor ho foul a wrong calls for swift retri
bution.
The evidence admitted thus far, will ac
quit the President before tbe counliy, but
wiiat willthe verdict of this Court, is ub-
sointelyvbejond conjecture. The policy of
the Managers and their co Conspirators io
the Senate now, is to plant themselves on
this proposition, all others haviug f illen to
the ground.: (viz. ■) “ Tnafc the Preaiduut in
i amoving Slauton, violated the Tenure of
Office BUI. and that act pre-aupposes a guil
ty intent.” If then the Court convict,
it will be on one siugle count, while the
verdict of “ not guilty *’ will be rendered on
the balance of the cliurgea, but without diV
qualificaiion. ' iiA
'To day, however, the Managers were so
terribly worsted, that the anii-Iiupeachers
have regained their spirits which were tem
porarily depressed, and declare the Presi
dent will- not be convicted, but it is mere
.speculation. There are twelve Radical Sen

under the seizure and abandonment law, in

of which were rendered duriug the present
i rm. The amounts in each case vary from
#10,000 to $1*3,000. Randolph L Mott se
curing the highest claim. Chums aggregate
$623,000.
E. G Townsend has been appointed Agent
of the Freedman's Bureau for Virginia.
Tbe close of - Impeachment is not ex
pected before tbe middle of next week..
Mr. S aobery is muon better.
Semte—In the Impt-achment Court tbe
Senute refused to admit Foster Blodgett’s
papers. Butler appealing for Blodgett, said
lie had never beeu able to get his cane before
theSemtfo and justice should be done him
uow—Blodgett won only Captain of a Rebel
militia company aud au unwilling Captain,
and mat Blodgett would swear, he, Blodgett,
was knowu in Augusta, that he was elected
by his neighbors to make a coostUntiou for
Georgia 7 he was made Mayor of Augusta
by Pope, and that he, Bailer, did not doubt
when Georgia waa admitted Blo1g«stt would
take his seat herb with the proudest of us.
Butler then offered the. nominations of
Sbenhau and Thomas to Brevet Geueral-
atiip, claiming that they were admissible un
der the tenth ar icle. Tue Senate refused to
admit them, by a vote of 14 to 35. Yeas—
Anthony, Cole, Fessenden, Fowler, Grimes,
Henderaon, Morton, Ross, Sumner, Tipton,
Trumbull, Van Winkle. Willey, Yites.
Both parties aur.ouuced that the evidence
had closed. Mr. Chase ordered tbe prose
cution to pioceed with their argument.
B intwell not being ready, asked an adjourn
ment to Tuesday. Tue defence asked umil
Wednesday, in view of Mr. Stanbery’s sick
ness.- Boutwell seconded tbe request.
After hearing and rejecting an appeal from
Mr. Logan to print his argument, the Court
adjourned to Wednesday.
The Senate then want into executive ses
sion, and also adjourned to Wednesday.
House—The Senati’s appropriation for
rmpeuchmeot was considered.
Eldiitlge said that it was evideot that
$10,006 would not defray the expenses of
ihe Impeachment trial, aud be thought this
was a mere bliud. Why did not the com
mittee come out boldly and nay this wus a
mere bagatelle to operate on the public
u)ind.
Washburne said if another appropriation
was required, he would vote for it, and he
believed it would be worth $100,000 to pay
tbe expense.
E dridge asked if he understood that the
gentleman would give $100,000 to ,make
the Impeachment trial a success.
Washburn* replied that he had not said
that exactly, but what he meant was that if
impeachment wus a success, it would be
worth uot oue hundred thousand, but one
hundred milli ons ot dollars to this couutry,
iu greater security to person and property.
(Applause iu the galleries.)
Eldridge said he suspected as much, that
this mont-y was to be used to secure the
success of impeaobmeut.. He would uot
vote a dollar for such purposes.
Washburue said he would not be misrep
resented. but he would reiterate that be be
lieved that the country would be beueflttad
to the amount of millions of dollars by the
removal of the usurper aud tyrant from tbe
White House.
The bill passed.
Bank’s bill, regarding the rights of foreign
citizens abroad, was taken up and a long
discussion eugued.

Hi ar me for a moment; while I address io
you a word of warning.
You see now moving before your eyes the
most solemn end terrible spectacle ever wit
sensed in this Stole. Tbe present election in
not merely to determine wbo sbsll be turned
out nod wbo put into office. It is n gnUe of
chance played by reckless ■peculators on
your liberty and prosperity! Each ballot
tailing silently io yonder box, is as a rivet,
in ypnr chains, and a levy fm- tribali on yon
trennwra. And are you doing your dirty to
avert the eatomityf Have yon need your in-
teliigeece to Inform tbe blacks of-their true
interest, for tbey bays sense to understand?
Have yon used your foiuence over them to
lorn them into the path of safety—safety io
yon and them ? For many of them respect
and revere their former masters, aad will
heed their counsel, i If nob then for tba
a *ke at your wives nod children who mast
nan tba bitter woe following ynartwgleet
of this dory, (al yoa cannot redeem the time
loot), lmytove Ibe few memento yet remain
lag.
Fardon sse Toe saying that there is a great
work yob can perfurhs, sad which yoa are
trimimHy asgleatiagt During the whole of
yeaieMbtoh.yoti kept away from tba polla. A
tew while meo (mostly lawyers) ware there,
bat they were ne one in fire hundredth) the
blacks. The moral weight and mJUeaee of
yoar presence a/ta needed at the baltoAbox—
and in the crowd. Many blacks who are
Conservative slid would vote oar ticket, are
intimidated by avudMn, and threats from
their owo race.
This would not be ware you to go there
and stay there, aud let them see yoa are ta-
teresteo in Ibis deMli-eiraggto, aud are da
termined that your Moods shall he dealt
Justly by. Go and apeak a word of enooor-
sgement—of advice sad, if need be, ash
persuasion to control sock an yoa may know
and who bave ia better aad happy days been
guided by your counsel. Depend upon it,
tbe boar* you may Urns spend for lha next
two days will bo tbq beat investment of yoar
life! Aait is aowjfur tba gaiea la .you
counting roomy of tjwo days, yoa nra risking
the hard-bought, earplogs of yourjife. Tbs
