A WAR OF RACES THREATENED.
Oar dispatches from Atlanta last night

that city that an attempt will be made to

' The Comirtr Crop.
As much interest is felt aoronghout the country in
regard to tbe prospects rv the cotton and other crops
we will be grateful to our planting friends, and
others in the Interior, lor information on tbe snb-
j ect. Onr factors and others who have opportunities
for obtaining valuable information in regard to the
growing crops, and anything of. interest in relation
thereto, will confer a favor by commnnicating the
same to us.
DON’T SEND ANY MORE.
We have received a copy of a pamphlet
ridtitled “Minnesota; its Advantages to Set
tlers" with the request that we will give it
a favorable notice. Minnesota may bo s
great State, and offer splendid inducements
to settlers, but we believe Georgia or almost
any ether Southern State offers as many ad
vantages as she does. The “Great West”
is a great humbug, except for laud specula
tore and politicians. We know there Is
•aongh good land in Georgia for at least
fifty times her population, and we are op
posed to her sons leaving her to find better
homes. We don’t believe in Honduras,
Brazil, or the Great West. There is as good
a living for an honest man, (or a dishonest
one either for that matter) who is willing to
work m this State as in any country under
God'8 sun. But starting a one horse store and
eating up the stock is not the way to make a
living. If you have a trade stick to it and
if you must branch out, branch out in it. If
yon are a farmer or farm laborer, slick to
the plow, and if you are dissatisfied with the
freedman, don’t employ them; work by your-
noif until politics are settled. You can at
least feed yourself and keep out of debt—
We have several acquaintances who became
lisgusted with the South and tried Brazil
>jid >he West (we never heard of anybody
- , j Honduras except the men who
. it that country), and every one of
could raise the means to get back
M and are back. We know one
ndividual who gave up a lucrative j
lar ■ emigrate to Brazil. He ia now
cere » striker in a blacksmith shop, earning
nioneyto get back on.
Books aud pamphlets, like tbe one which is
the subject of this notice, are distributed free
ly throughout the South, at the hotels, in
the railroad cars, and on steamboats, for the
purpose of inducing the young men of our
States to leave their native places. Parties
wanting notices of books describing the
beauties and advantages of far off States and
foreign countries need not send them to this
office. We have no white population to
spare, and we believe our citizens can do as
well in Georgia or Florida as elsewhere.
Emigration fever is over; and the people ot
the South have determined to remain ia it.
We have lived in it during the days of the
Confederacy, when corn bread was a luxury
and bacon a rarity; and we have staid in
it under the Provisional government, and the
reconstruction laws; neither scalawags, car
pet-baggers, military satraps,nor Radical dar
kies have been able to lessen our love for the
Southland, or desire to desert those who are
unable to leave it to the tender mercies of
Radical rule.
We believe it is a good country, a while
man's country, and if it is not so now we in
tend (Providence permitting) to stay here
nntii it is. Don't send any more pamphlets
or books on emigration.
has the audacity, the negro impudence, to
call respected citizens of Georgia traitors,
and to threaten us with a war of races if
his claES are not allowed every privilege. This
threat accounts for the midnight drills that
are taking place, these are the preparations
for enforcing equality, and their white asso
ciates have so far forgotten themselves in
their greed of office as to eneourage them in
it. These continued threats from negro leg
islators in South Carolina, Louisiana and
now in Georgia must have some meaning.
They are not empty boastings. They have
been reading with prejudiced eyes the
history of Sun Domingo. -They have not
seme to see tbe difference between that ac
cursed country and onr own land. They
do not remember that that was a lonely
islapd far from the mother coun
try, and that country at war with
another; the white inhabitants were outnum
bered fifty .to one by the negro popnla
lion. But in the South it is different—the
white race have the nnmerical superiority,
which is daily increasing, and which would
be rapidly increased in the event of such a
conflict as Bradley, Dunn and Whipper are
threatening us with. They also forget that
the white population of this country have
just passed through a war that has innred
them to the severe service of the field, and
that when a war of races commences, the
“rebels” who under Lee were victorious on
many a hard-fought field and the soldiers
under Grant who received their surrender
at Appomattox; the veterans of Sherman
and the heroes of Beauregard, Johnston and
Hardee, will march shoulder to shonlder in
battle array in defence of their race and kin
dred.
God forbid that the day of a war of races
should ever come; bnt if, under the teach
ing of such men as Bradley, Dunn and
Whipper, it is forced upon us, then will the
dram call to arms the blue coats am] the
gray, and, marching to the music of “Yan
kee Doodle” and “Dixie’s Lmd,” they will
sweep tbe last vestige of Radical negroes
from this continent.

GEORGIA LEGISLATURE.
SECOND DAY.
The Nomination.—It seems that neither
of J the three prominent candidates that were
voted for yesterday in the National Con-
-veption can be nominated. The eighteenth
ballot gave General W. S. Hancock 144
votes, and the dispatch says, “it is appre
hended that he has, achieved his highest
'vote.” Mr. Pendeleton has fallen rapidly
in the rear. Tlio nomination will probably
he made to-day, but who it will be, ft is
hardly possible to' say. This city is not a
very good position to jndgefrom, but many
are willing to wager any amount that Mr.
Chasewill be nominated before this evening.
The dispatches give a very full account of
yesterday’s ballots, and -we refer to them for
further particulars. .
Monday, July 6.
Senate met pursuant to adjournment.
Prayer by Rev. Mr. .

ruled the objection.
Mr. Harris, of the 27th, moved that the
Senate proceed to finish its organization by
electing a Doorkeeper:
Substitute by Mr. Speer, that the Senate
proceed to the election of Doorkeeper, Messen
ger and Sergeant-at-Arms, and called the pre
vious question, whicli was sustained. The
resolution was agreed to.
Mr. Candler objected still, on the ground
that it was contrary to the Code, and no such
officer known as Sergeant-at-Arms.
A motion was made to reconsider the action
of the Senate on the resolution.
Mr. Burns read the clause in the Code
touching the case in point.
The Senate reconsidered and struck out
Sergeant-at-Arms.

The New York Convention.—We have re
ceived the New York papers of the 5th insb,
containing the full proceedings of tbe first
day’s session of the National Democratic
Convention. It covers seven columns of the
New York Herald, and the most of it is
merely unimportant motions. The tele
graphic account as received on Sunday last,
and published in the News and Hebald of
Monday, gives so complete a synopsis of the
first day’B work, that it would be mere repe
tition to republish any portion of it, aud the
proceedings are too extended for re-publica
tion in full.- •
Our Stale delegation was represented on
tbe Committees, as follows : Colonel Henry
S. Fitch on Resolutions and Platform; E. H.
Pottle, Esq., on Credentials, and Cincinatus
Peeples on Organization.
George Alfred Townsend describeth Sena-
tor Hendricks for the Cleavelaud Leader:
"Senator Hendricks*is a composed, discreet,
orthodox, vigilant man. His mouth is full
of honey nd you cannot hear the bees buzz
when 19 eaks. He has beautiful auburn
hair, and will be presumed to get the full
read-headed vote of the country. : His exte
rior is sand-papered to rid him of .any ido-
,yncrasies^ and. he can construct a syllogysm
upon three falsehoods, ont of whose moral
tensions he will make you weep.”
—Two persons who were injured by a
Te in the hands of a crazy man, on the
Grand Trank Railway, last winter, have
brought suits against the.Company, laying
their damages at $10,000 each. The" smts
were commenced in the Supreme Court at
Buffalo, Hew York, on Wednesday.

SECOND DISPATCH.
New Yobk, July 8.—On the thirteenth
ballot Virginia voted for Hancock.
On the fifteenth ballot Connecticut split,
giving Hancock three votes. Nebraska goes
for Hendricks. Pennsylvania votes for
Hancock, making the result as follows:
Pendleton, 129; Hancock, 794; Hendricks,

for Hendricks—resnlt: Pendleton, 56; Han
cock, 144; Hendricks, 87.
To-day’s balloting shows nothing definite,
Hendricks’ friends were confident of a fa
vorable result on the eighteenth ballot, bnt
the resnlt disoonrages them very much and
they very reluctantly yielded to adjourn
ment.
A coalition between the friends of Hen
dricks and Pendleton is hopeless, and it ia
apprehended that Hancock has achieved his
highest vote. The following are the details
of the eighteenth and last ballot: Alabama—
Hancock, 8. Arkansas—Hancock, 5. Cali

FROM ATLANTA.
AS ATTEMPT about to be made to
, OUST the democrats.
Speech from a Notorious Character,
Atlanta, July 8.—In the Senate a memo
rial was read concerning Mr. Winn, Demo
crat, and othere, holding Mats contrary to
the spirit of the Omnibus bill.
Mr. Candler moved to strike, out the
words “and others.’’
The motion was objected to by a Republi
can, who said that the laws of Congress for
bade members holding seats unless their dis
abilities had been removed, and it' was his
purpose to see that the laws were enforced.
Mr. Candler offered a resolntion which |
was an onslaught upon the eligibility of a
Ralical.
This brought-cut Bradley,- negro, who was
astonished thajany medjber should question
the eligibility <of members on account of
color, fie cared not whether it emanated from
the brain of Joe Brown. Jeff. Davis, or the
spiritual brain of God himself. He quoted
the second paragraph of the Bill of Rights
in support of his argument, and was ready to
purge the Senate of trailers and lelons. He
reminded the Senate that the first blow for
freedom was slruck by a negro. He closed
by saying that unless his raoe were a part
and parcel of the State militia, in less than
ten years there would be another rebellion,
which would exceed In magnitude and would
be more successful than the last Adjourned.
In the House a Committee to wait on the
Governor reported that he would communi
cate with the two Houses as soou as he had
a conference with Gen. Meade.
The impression prevails that a great ef
fort is about to bo made to oust a number of
Democratic members from both Houses.
From^orth Carolina, *
Raleich, July 9-—Tbe proceedings of the
General-Assembly on Monday, Tuesday.and
to-day are of no general interest. Enrolling
and Engrossing Clerk9 have been elected.
The latter—O'Hara, negro—is considered
better qualified lhaD tbe Enrolling Clerk.
Mr. Bowman, of the House, introduced a
bill providing for public schools and requir-.
ing Bohools for blacks and whites, whioh wsb'
referred to tbe Educational Committee.
Cancassing and electioneering for United
States Senators are kept up constantly.
It is rumored that the friends of General
Abbott, of New Hampshire, and John Pool,
of Pasquatank -have formed - a strong
combination to secure the election. This
plan, if successful, would deprive the west
bf a Senator and also defeat Gen. Dockery.
Next Tuesday "'ill determine the matter if
not sooner determined in caucus.
It is understood that Gov. Holden and his
board of supervisors of the 'State Lnlatfo
Asylum, one of whom is a Canadian negro
preacher, baa removed Dr. E. C. Fisher, the
able Snperintendent of the Asylum, who has
been in that position since ils establishment,
and appointed Dr. Grissolm, a country phys
ician from Greenville. Other removals and
'appointments of the same fitness are ex
pected. • , •
A WESTERN ROMANCE.
Homicide.—On Saturday last a difficulty ..oc
curred in this city between Andrew McCrary
and Joe Tucker, which resulted in the death of
the former. The verdict of the Coroner’s
jury was, that McCrary came to his death from
wounds inflicted by pistol shots, the pistol
being in the hands of Joseph Tucker. McCrary
received four wounds, either one of which, it is
said, would have produced death. He expired
immediately. Tucker was arrested and released
on bond.
At the commitment trial it appeared from
the evidence that, meetiog in a drinking sa-
loon, (having had a previous difficulty during
the day,) the quarrel was renewed, McCrary
drawing a pistol and presenting it at Tucker,
who drew his pistol and fired four times in
rapid succession, every ball taking effeet in the
breast and bowels of McCrary. We under
stand McCrary did not fire, and that it was as
certained after the shooting that his pistol was
hot loaded.—Jitilledgeville Union, 7lh inst.
—In Cleveland, on Sunday, one Jack Ber
ry took occasion to insult a Mrs. Mary Bulan,
calling her infamous nnmes, when ahe at
tacked and beat him severely, felling him to
the ground and fracturing his skoilin two
places.

New On leans, July 8.—The Legislature

—to.Into joint session and elected. Wjn. P.
Kellogg to tbe United States Senate for the
long term and John S. Harris for the short
term.
a committee of the Democratic members
of both Houses have presented a communi
cation to General Buchanan reciting that the
presiding officers cf both HonBes bad per
sisted, in violation of the State Constitution
and the instructions ot the G-neral of the
Army and the General comma'n ing- the De
partment, in excluding members entitled to
seats, and appealing in the name of the peo
ple of'Louisiana for redress, askiog that the
Military Commander, by virtue of his au
thority, place the said excluded members in
their seats.
General Buchanan replies that while in
bis opinion these proceedings are illegal, un
just and oppressive, and known to be in opr
position to the will of the General-in-Chief,
yet he deems the interests of law and order
and the people of the State in this crisis will
be best subserved by forcible interference to,
correct the abuses complained of, and says
that be will forward their communication,
with a copy of his letter, to,General Gtant
and to the Chairman of the'Reconstruction
Committee.

Two Thousand Dollars of Maternal
Affection.
At Owatonna, Minnesota, resides a milli
ner, Mrs. Myrick, who was the mother of a
young and fascinating daughter of about
sixteen. A very respectable young man,
named Odell, had been paying tbe daughter
attention for some time, and it was currently
reported and believed that they were en
gaged. Matters stood thus when a man
trom Chicago, or some city further east,
to whom Mrs. Myrick was. indebted in the
sum or *2.qoo, pome to Owatonna and made
the acquaintance of Miss Myrick. He no
sooner saw her than he determined to pos
sess her, and being a man unscrupulous as
to what meaDS he employed, he offered Mrs.
Myrick to release her from her obligation of
$2,000 if sho would give him her daughter.
Whether she required much urging or not is
not known, but ahe finally acceded to the
proposition. There was another party to be
consulted, however. The young and inno
cent girl shrank from the idea of being
sold—bartered for a price—and that to a man
who seemed anything but fair, and whose
purpose appeared colored with dishonor.
She hastened to her lover with the tale,
and they promptly decided to elude the vigi
lante of the mother and thwart her miserable
designs by a speedy marriage. They took
the first train going east, aud were hood, as
they supposed, beyond the Iowa line; bnt
unfortunately they alighted from the cars
sooner than they intended, and they were
obliged to take a carriage and drive to
Cresco. This delaygave the mother lime to
overtake them. She telegraphed to Cresco
aod bad them arrested, and after her arrival,
with her miserable partuer in the disgraceful
bargain, a mock trial was bad and Odell was
held in custody at her request until she got
started home with her itaugbter. But in
stead of going to Owatonna the party took
the eastward bound traio. The young girl
was alraoBt frantic, and, it is said, attempted
to leap from tbe train. It is also reported
that she attempted to jump overboard from
the boat at Prairie Du Chien. The young
man returned to Owatonna with his lather.
The whereabouts of Mrs. Myrick, her daugh
ter and the mao who sought to have posses
sion of her, are not known.
Mrs. Myrick’s milliner shop is closed up,
and the public opinion is, very much against
her.- It could hardly be 'otherwise with any
woman who wOuld deliberately' sell her
daughter in that manner.—IVindna (A/inn.)

biM Ik tb. LegUl.tmre—Discomfiture
•r tbe Radicals.
The Atlanta correspondent of the Macon
Messenger says;
Quite a sensation was created in the Honse
by the election of the Democratic candidate
for Clerk. Yon will see that Harden beat his
opponent five votes. The Rad’nri" were ter
ribly whipped—they fairly wilted. Mr.
Sbeibley, tbe Clerk of the late Convention,
-W«r expeettegkcrgsly tf Jotamon bad been
elected—it was delightful to witness his dis
comfiture. Parrott looked doleful—Blodgett
was restive—Bryant was unmanageable—
Caldwell was perturbed—there was an awful
flattering among the birds Of coarse the
Democrats were uproarious—they could not
well contain themselves.
It is thought now that the Democrats
have a clear majority of five to seven in the
House, and that it will be a close vote on
joint ballot. It la now certain that the
prospects of. Joseph ace not .very bright.
His hopes are not buoyant.
I was quite amused by a little incident
to-day. In the vote for an adjournment in
the Honse, which was urged by the Radi
cals, and opposed by the Democrats, Bryant
was with the weak side,, aod desiring to
get ail the strength he could, called ont
to the clerk that he had omitted to
call the name of Mr. Turnipaeed, supposing
Mr. T. was a Radical, and would vole aye.
Mr. T. rose in his seat and said: “I have
voted, sir, and voted no.” Bryant went
down amidst the wildest roar of laughter
by the whole house.
Several papers pnt down onr friond, J.
R. Smith, of Coffee, as a Radical. They
claimed him, bat Smith is all right, and has
voted the Democratic ticket throughout.
He said: .‘‘They pnt me down Rad., and
I got a long confidential leltqr from Dr.
Bard asking my ioflaence, bat' I’ll show
them where I stand.” There is not a more
staunoh Democrat in either honae than Mr.
Smith. But I must close. B.

What is the Matter with You?
This Id the faTT^Hur question putco every invalid.
In many cues the answer is, ‘1 doA\kuowexactly,
but I don't feel well." Look at the,rpuQtenence of
the man or woman who makes this . ply, snd you
will generally find th&t the eyes ere dm and lustre
less, the complexion sallow, the cheeks \ flscid, * and
the whole expression of the face dejected. Interro-
gate the invalid more closely, and you will discover
that Constipation, the result of a disordered
stomach and a torpid liver, ia at the bottom of the
mischief. “That's what'i the nutter.” Whoever
baa experienced the effects of

mo brothers onr.-fourtb. William McCor
mick died in 1865, leaving a widow and five
children, in whose behalf the. administrator
brings a suit for an adjustment of the part
nership. In the bill it is alleged that upon
said death the surviving partners carried on
the business without change nmil the 16th
of June, 1866, when they entered Into an
agreement that, unless prohibited ,by the
conrt, or it should be deemed prejudicial to
the interests of the estate of William S. the’
business should be continued until the ’full
seven years contemplated in the agreement
bad expired, the interest of the deceased
being oarried on for the benefit of the es
tate. It is further alleged that, on
the 1st of August, 1867, Eaid sur
viving partners, pretending that the
interests of the estate would be jeo
pardized by a continuance of the business in
its behalf, closed the books, and opened
new set for the business, which has since
been carried on for their joint benefit exclu-
. The bill sets forth that the iuterest
Of the deceased in (he persqnal effects of the
partnership is of the value of $250:0001 and

is of the value of $800,000 and upward; also
that said surviving partners have offered the
sum of *497,229 05, payable in five equal

The Savannah Gas Light Company, -wishing to sup
ply Gaa to its patrons on as cheap terms asmay be
consistent with a fair return for the capital and labor
applied in its manufacture, and believing that the
active business which- may be reasonably expected
daring tbe coming winter In this city, will cause an
Increased demand; and farther, that a diminution in
price wiU induce many to burn Gaa that have hitherto
had recourse to other means of illumination. Which
are morn dangerous and less cleanly and convenient:
And that the consequent increase will I cum the eott
of manufacture, and thue justify the Company In
making a redaction in price.
Therefore, It has been determined that from and
