Aftef having >tattled tha Colifalry by its
remarkable manifesto oh tbe subject of Unt-
Teraat suffrage, adopting the dobtrine of
Chief Justice Chase and recommending tbe
Democratic Convention to accept the un
constitutional legislation of CoDgreas on that
subject as a finality, the editor takes the back
track and thus explains the objects of his
nw. He says :
*• When Chief Justice Chase began to be
talked of as the Democratic candidate, we
took occasion to say that, in a matter so se
rious, nothing should be done against the
sense of the Democratic masses. But how
to ascertain it ? Instead of vague discussions
of the qualifications of Mr. Chase, we offered
a proposition respecting a particular part of
the platform. The only obstacle to his nom
ination was bis position on negro suffrage,
aod we saw an opportunity to bring his
chances (if be coaid be supposed to have
any) to an immediate test by fliuging into
tbe arena of disousdon a proposition on that
subject. We pitched it in the very lowest
key consistent with Mr. Chase’s nomination.
We did not ask the party to affirm Mr.
Chase’s views, or to recant its own, but dnly
to Ignore the question. An assent to this
proposal would by no means have involved
the nomination of Mr. Chase; but its prompt
and vehement rejection by a considerable
portion of tbe party press, conclusively set
tles tbe question of his chances the other
way. If a large part of the party refuses to
recognize negro suffrage as a fact, there need
be ne more breath or iuk wasted on a can
didate who represents it as a principle. It
was important that this point should be set
tled before its discussion demoralized the
party, and the World claims the merit of
having settled it.
If we resorted to a ruse it was not at the
expense of sincerity. We believe in and stand
by every word we uttered on the subject.”
The aitifice of the World would have
been harmless, perhaps, if it had not led
some whose devotion to principle is modi
fied by the prospects of paity success, to
commit themselves to a policy which tbe
World itself has so promptly abaodoned.
Fortunately for the party, tbe number of
such converts to the World’s theory is
small, aod their influence of similar propor
tions.
We do not think that the harmony of the
Convention will be disturbed, nor the influ
ence aod authority of its action impaired
by the little diversion which has been crea
ted among Conservatives and Democrats,
by the “proposition” thrown into “the
arena of discussion” by the World, to test
the popularity of Judge Chase’s suffrage
views. As the editor remarks, it has elici
ted the vehement reprobation of tbe leadtag
Democratic presses of the country, and has
settled in a week a question which would
otherwise draggled them on in doubt until
after the Convention.”

Tbe Tax Bill*
Washington, Jane 21.— Mr* Seward has
returned.
The Tax Bill makes tobacco thirty-two
and sixteen; tax on Government deposits
three per cent, per aomuo; -other deposits
one per cent.; whiskey, as heretofore stated,
is sixty cents. The machinery of the bill
recently re-committed ia preserved, bat be
yond the items mentioned above, there are
no changes in rates.

Jackson, Miss., Jane 20.—The following
dispatch from Washington relative to the re
moval of Governor Humphreys and Attor
ney-General Hooker was read to-day at the
Democratic Executive Committee Rooms:
Gen. J. D. Freeman’s removals are disap
proved and reasons demanded.”
Signed, Beverly Mathews.
Gov. Humphreys and Mr. Hooker are can
vassing the State in opposition to the pro
posed Constitution.
The Demoorats claim that they will carry
the State by 20,000 majority ; tbe election
begins Monday, 22d last,
Meeting of the Bogus Legislature.—
The scalawag organ in Augusta, of yester
day,says: “We learn,upon the best authority,
that the General Assembly will be convened
at Atlanta, on the fourth of July. A proc
lamation to that effect will be issued by Gov
ernor Bullock as soon as the Admission bill
becomes a law.”
QUARTERS ENGAGED FUR
GEORGIA DELEGATION.
The following announcement is published
in the Atlanta Intelligencer of Thursday:
Please publish the following telegram,
j ust received, in reference to quarters in New
York for the Georgia delegation.
J. B. Gordon.
“New York, June 17.—Gen. J. B. Gordon:
Parlor engaged at Chanter House, opposite
New Tammany Hall, Fourteenth fl4th)
street—Dr. Duncan, proprietor. Georgia
delegates desiring, will be furnished board
and lodging there.
(Signed) James Gardner.
Savannah Enterprize.—The Charleston
News, noticing the lease of the Muscogee
Railroad by the Central Railroad Company,
says: “Our sister city, Savannah, is stretch
ing out its arms, and seems determined not
to stop abort of the Mississippi. The Cen
tral Railroad already has control to Colum
bus, Ga., aod if this company has bought up
tbe West Point Railroad, it bas the control
of tbe only line by which cotton is brought
from Montgome ry to Augusta and Charles
ton. Has Savannah any natural advantages
over Cnarleston ? If not, what is the matter
with our people ?”
Thebe seems to be a good prospect of an
other lively diplomatic controversy soon be
tween Secretary Seward and the British Minis
ters. On Monday last, the House of Repre
sentatives adopted a resolution requesting the
President to “take measures to secure the re
lease from imprisonment of Messrs Warren
and Costelloe, convicted and sentenced in
Great Britain for words and acts spoken and
done in the United States, and to take measure
to secure their return to the flag, with such
ceremonies as may be appropriate to the occa
sion.’’
Let Us Have Peace.—One of our Wash
ington correspondents mentions the suspension
of business; by Congress, on Wednesday even
ing, to hear tbe reading of a dispatch from
the Texas Convention giving a fearful picture
of rebel lawlessness, and asking the
of power on the Convention to organize mili
tary forces for the protection of the loyal peo
ple. It is thought possible that a bill will be
reported by which the freedmen and radicals
will be armed, as in Tennessee, to terrorize
over the rest of the community. We shall
not be surprised to see the same adjunct to
construction generally adopted. “Let us have
peace,” says General Grant.—Baltimore Sun.
Important to Delegates.—Mr. John B.
Peck, Master of Transportation on the West
ern and Atlantic Railroad, informs the At
lanta papers that delegates to tbe New York
Convention will be furnished tiokets via
Louisville aod via mail boats, Cincinnati,
Columbus, Pittsburg, and Philadelphia—or
*via Indianapolis, Crestline, Pittsburg and
Pniladeipbia—on application to J. H. Por
ter, General Ticket Agent at Atlanta, for
$17 50, which will entitle them to go to New
York and return.
These tickets may be obtained from Jane
20th to July 1st inclusive, and are good for
return until July 20tb. This arrangement
does not apply to alternates, except such as
go in place of regular delegates. Alternates,
visitors and others will be tarnished tickets
over the same routes at $37, as heretofore
published.
—At Honesdale, Eton., two children aged
respectively seveotefe and fifteen years, hav

More Corruption,—A Washington letter
says:
“The bill increasing the compensation of
clerks twenty per cent, in the various de-
prrtments has passed at length. All sorts
of appliances were brought to bear on tbe
members, bat tbe chief influence that got
tbe measure through was feminine. Tbe
wives and daughters of the official interest
ed made no stint of their charms, and they
triumphed over Congressional obstinacy.”
There’s more work for Butler. The wives
and daughters of the poor clerks of Wash
ington should be watched. Woe betide
them if Butler gets after them. He is a ter
ror to the feminine branch of the human
family.
Gen. Meade.—Since our publication yes
terday, of the statements of the correspon
dent of the New York Tribune, and of the
Atlanta Era, of the probabilities that Gen,
Meade would not return to his post in King
dom Three, we have received private ad
vices from Atlanta of such a character as to
jastify us in assuring our readers that he
has gone never to return.—Columbus Sun.
The Bond Holders and Mr. Pendleton.
—A Washington dispatch of the 15th says :
“The war against Pendleton goes on un
abated. The bondholders look upon his
nomination and election with increasing ter
ror, and say that it will create a new sec
tional issue between the East and West
more disastrous to the unity and integrity
of the government than secession. The
Chase men seem to incline to Hancock just
now. Hancock himself is very friendly to
Pendleton.”
The Columbus (Ohio) Statesman says
that “if matters come to the worst; if our
people, instead of receiving relief from their
tax hardens, shall be yet further burdened,
they will relieve themselves through repu
diation. The tendency of the times is in
this direction, and he is wilfully blind who
will not see it” [Nothing more certain.]
Three lads, out plum gathering near Au
gusta, were shot at by a negro, and all three
wounded, but it is hoped not fatally. The ne
gro escaped.
Awful Murder! A Gentleman Kills an
■Individual who Pre&ent^ a Bill ! No Ar
rests!—There was an awful murder com
mitted in this city yesterday, and the facts of
the ease, as near as we coold get them at the
excitement, are these: Au individual, well
known in this community for his musical
qualities and stinging remarks, it appears
went into the business bouse of one of our
citizens, and presented a bill to the citizen
in question. The latter objected to it very
strenuon8ly, whereupon the unhappy victim
commenced humming an air which seemed
to exasperate tbe merchant to such an extra
ordinary degree that be sjtrnck the former
so heavy a blow as to kill him instantly. It
is believed that there was an old grudge be
tween the parties—that tbe same bill was ob
jected to by tbe merchant last summer, and
violent threats were made at that time, but
not pat into effect until upon this melancholy
occasion. The citizen who committed this
dreadful deed seems to be very generally
prompted by the public, and we presume
that no farther action will be taken in regard
to the melancholy affair.
P. 8.—We have omitted to mention that
the name of the individual murdered was
Mose Keeter, a name unpleasantly familiar
in this and other communities. —Augusta
Chronicle.
The Reason Why.—Two gentlemen,
living in Columbus. were accustomed to
have their washing done by one Hannah
Flournoy, a negress. This woman is report
ed to have been, about tbe time of Asbbnrn’s
death, on exceedingly intimate terms with
that unfortunate person. Upon the death of
Asbbarn, the two gentlemen withdrew their
patronage from Haunab, who then presented
a preposterously exorbitant bill for services
rendered* which they, of coarse, re/ased to
pay. Whereupon the concabine accused
them, before the military authorities, of
complicity in the asssssination of her para
mour. And this is the way, according to
reliable statements gathered directly from
the scene of action, that the Messrs. Marx
oame to be arrested at Columbus and confined
I by military power in tbe 8x31 dungeons at
I the Bsrracke.—Atlanta Isteffigepccr.

A veritable story is told of a bright little
girl, who, attending Sunday school for the
The President's Veto of the Omslb
Admission Bill.
Washington, Jane 20. — The President
in bis veto of the Omuibus Admission bill
says tbe approval of this bill would be ad
mitting that tbe act for more efficiently gov
erning the Rebel 8tates and acts supplemen
tary thereto were proper and constitutional.
Whereas the President’s opinion iB unchang
ed in this respect, bnt rather strengthened
by the results attending their execnlion. If
Arkansas is not a State this bill do not ad
mit her if she is a State. No legislation is
necessary to her representation in Congress.
Each House under the Constitution are
judges of the election returns and qualifica
tions if its own members and nothing is nec
essary to restore Arkansas but a decision by
each House as to tbe eligibility of those pre
senting credentials. This is a plain and
simple plan ot the Constitution had it been
accepted in 1865 instead of legislation of a
doubtful constitutionality aud therefore un
wise and dangerous reconstruction would
long since have been accomplished. The
President again recommends the adoption
of a constitutional plan. The terms pro
posed are scarcely applicable to a torritory
and not to a State which has occupied a place
in the Union over a quarter of a century,
and he says he is unable to fiod authority for
the conditions of tbe bill in the Federal Con
stitution. The election franchise is re
served by the Constitution to the States
themselves. The bill fails to provide bow
Arkansas shall signify her acceptance
ot tbe fundamental conditions, nor does
it prescribe penalties tor their nulli
fication. It is seriously questioned
whether the Constitution has been ratified
accordiog to law assumed to be in foice be
fore its adoption. Tbe Arkansas Constitu
tion restricted the franchise in its ratification
by tests unknown in Reconstruction Acts,
among them, the acceptance of equal politi
cal and civil rights of all men It is well
known that a large portion, if not a large
majority of electors do not accept this test,
and if applied to voters North, there is reason
to believe that many of them would remain
away from tbe polls rather than comply with
its aegredatiDg conditions.
The President concludes r “Should the
people of Arkansas therefore cfosir s to annul
the elective franchise so as to make it con
form to the Constitutions of a large propor
tion of the States of tbe North and West,
and modify the provisions referred to, in the
fundamental condition, what is to be the
consequence ? Is it intended that a denial
of representation shall follow, and if flo, will
we not dread at some fnture day a recurrence
of the troubles which have so long agaitated
the country ? Would it not be tbe part of
wisdom to take for our guide tbe Federal
Constitution, rather than resort to measures
which, looking only to the present, may ia a
few years renew in an aggregated form the
strife and bitterness caused by legislation
which has proved to 6e ill-timed and unfor
tunate ?”
House.—The House was occupied with un
important matters until the reception of the
veto of tbe Arkansas bill, which passed by a
vote of 110 to 31, the veto notwithstand
ing, by a party vote, except Stewart of New
York, who voted with the Republicans.
The Kentucky election contest came up
and was discussed to adjournment.
Senate.—In the Senate the petition of 1,300
printeis and book binders of New York, re
presenting American industry, paralized by
cheap foreign labor, and asking a protective
tariff, was read. Similar petitions were pre
sented from laborers and citizens of Dela
ware.
The bill dividing Illinois into two Judicial
Districts, with courts at Cairo and Spring-
field, was passed.
A large number of pension bills were
passed.
Without voting on the veto tbe Senate went
into Executive session and adjourned.
The tax bill reported to-day comes up on
Monday and will occupy tbe House without
interruption until concluded.
It reduces tbe whiskey to 60 cents, and is

The following informatioo is published for the ben
efit of all parties interested in the navigation of th*
Savannah River.
EDWARD C. ANOERSON, Mayor.
City Demos Boat. Juxx 11, 1868.
Sir:—In compliance with your ina-rnctions, bnoyi
have been placed to serve as guides through tbe
dredged channel at ‘ The Obstructions” and at “Tbe
Wrecks.”
AT THE OBSTRUCTIONS
Two buoys have been placed on the western side of
this channel—one (No. IV about two hundred ysrda
from the gap in the obstructions, and the other (No.
14) at tbe upper or southern end of the channel.
These are red, and, as tbeir color signifies, are to be
kept to the right by vessels coming op the river. Ves
sels, after passing the upper buoy, may bear away tor
Fort Jackbon.
AT THE WRECKS
This channel has been marked by three buoys. Tbe
1st |N0.13) is on the sand point around which, to
coming np ihe river, the turn is made to enter tbe
channel. About midway of, and on the same aide
(south) of the channel, tbe 2d, or No. 16, was placed.
These two are black, aud are, of coarse, to be lelt to
the southward. The western end of the channel,
north side, is markfd by a red buoy (No. IS.) Os
passing thi?, leaving it on the right, or to the north
ward, vessels can keep away lor Savannah.
About two hundred yards below, or to the eastward
of the|chsnnel, at Tne Wrecks, there is an old blsd
buoy (No. £L) Vessels should be careful not to mis
b«ke this for the one maiking the entrance to the
channel.
Very re spectrally,
