Steamehtp Enterprise.
[From the New Yo. k Shipping Li»t, August j
Savannah, which, since the rebellion, has
' outstripped nearly ail the Southern seaboard
cities in the race for commercial supremacy,
taking the lead of Charleston and Mobile, and
fairly rivalling New Orleans, is about to
fgtre^yieaherclaa&s ior SUfjerlority a| a trade
mart, by adopting direct steamship communi
cation’ ivith Liverphol. yThe itey.4‘Geargia
Liverpool Line" is lo be inaugurated in No
vember next by two new iron screw Steamships
—the Savannah and Satiila—now in course of
construction on Ihe Clyde. In dne time these
ships are to be followed by five others, the
Waverly, Leith, Stirling, Riga and Don, as will
be seen by the Company’s advertisement else
where in our columns. The freight capacity
j^of these steamships will vary from fifteen
hundred to three thousand bale3, each ship
being bniit with special reference to speed and
strength., | i; ’ *' r *
Thus, slowly but surely, steam is superseding
sails on all the great pathways of commerce,
and it is by no means improbable that onr
entire European carrying trade will gravitate
to screw ships within a very few years. One
of the causes of thV decay of the American
shipping interests, as is well known, was the
partial drying up of the sources of those great
Southern staples, Cotton, Tobqcco, Sugar,
Naval Stores, Rice, Ac., through the instru
mentality of the late war. But the well springs
of these great staples are gradually beginning
to flow again, and we shall thus soon ,hav,e need
for more tonnage. It will be well for American
merchants and capitalists to bear, this fact in
mind, and to.bear,in. mind, also, the important
truth amt steam, instead; of; sails, will,.in the
coming year, be called upon to perform the
functions of the best'portion of the American
carrying trade:
. *£t£fie a&lyJtiung hboul this new Savannah line
to be regretted is, that it is under British iri-
/■sfea^^of American;aespices, and it behooves
our countrymen to bestir themselves, or all the
fields of American ocean commerce will speedily
be ks ^fEctuaily covered by foreign steals

ing of the outrages being perpetrated upon the
people of the South by the Radical disnnion-
ists and revolutionists, warns them that they
' and says: “We
our readers
into a false confidence in the permanence of
peace under all the provocations that may be
given.” The editor says the people of the
South desire peace on a sure, permanent basis,
and would long since have been “back in the
Union in spirit as in fact, but for the agencies
at the North, which are exerted te prevent
reconciliation.”
“These agencies,” says the editor, “work
partly above board, through the newspapers
and the public action of parties, committees
and individuals, and partly by secret, stealthy
methods, which we cannot trace, and of
which we perceive only the disastrous results.
Since our last article on this subject, two re
markable measures have been introduced
in the Radical Legislatures of two Southern
States, which measures are so nearly alike
in their import as to leave little doubt that
they were suggested by Radical plotters at
the North with a view to influence the com
ing election. We feel confident that the
Southern Radicals would not, without the
mot d'ordre and the pledge of support from
Washington, take steps so dangerously bor
dering on civil war. The measures to which
we refer are as follows:
“In the State of North Carolina the Legis
lature haveJiastiljr adopted a tyrannical mi
litia system, under the false, title of a ‘Police
bill.’ The kind of police which ; it provides
a standing army scatte
State, and responsible to
Holden. • .
‘-And these' grave perils are to be enconn-
• that soulless politicians at the North, keep
ing their own precious bodies well out of the
fray, sport with the passions arid prej J * -
of the impulsive people of the South.
Very hazardous business.”

It is
Alexander H., .Stephens has gone to
* White Sul
Urn benefit of his
sional Directory at Washington—they know
that the people of these States are no longer
governed by laws enacted in accordance
the forms of Republican governments, by
the will of the people, bnt by the caprice
of an irresponsible and revolutionary cabal
in Washington, backed by the military
power—they-knew that that vile faction is
seeking to complete the overthrow of
the Federal Government of the Constitution,
and erect in its stead a consolidated mili
tary despotism which shall role all the
States without the restraint of Constitutions
or laws, and in defiance of the will
of the people. They know all this, and dare
not and- da potjdepy.. it; ;buf .they “want
Peace ! ’ For office anil the hope of office
they ^ye coogeateA to. become The Bcrvfle
imlrnmenta of the conspirators against the
liberties of their country—with them their
political fortunes are cast, and in the per
petuijty of their power is their only |hope of
protection from jnst retribution. They seek
no restoration of the Union of the Con
stitution, they desire no repeal of unconsti
tutional laws, no re-establishment of civil
government with the rights and liberties of
the people. Their cry is, “Let us have
peace!”
But what is the peace that is promised the
country in the name of their great Missionary
ofPeaoe? Is it Ihe Peace that reigned in
Warsaw; the Peace of the Empire, or that
peace which all good men desire, which can
only come to our distracted country with
the re-eatablishment ot law, order, right and
justice.
General Grant has not taken the pains to
define what kind of peace he desires. When
Napoleon said, “the Empire is peace,” the
world were not long In understanding what
he meant. Perhaps General Grant
his language is a3 easy of interpretation' by
those who understand him. It may be in
teresting to our readers to know how he u>
nterpreted by the organs of his parly. For
their enlightenment on this subject we give
the following extiacl from a writer in the
New York Times, a leading ’ organ of the
Radical parly, who signs himself “Peace.
Anggl~pf*.peace “maintains 4; that tiie
people of the Southern States having taken
Hp arms against the party controlling the
Government of the United Stales, in defense
of. what they believed to be their consdtu
tional and Siato rights, being defeated, “lost
all claims lo civil and political rights, to
the rights of property, and even life itself,
and are completely dependent upon the
mercy of. the Government which they have
defied." “This,” says the writer, “was the
condition of the rebels at the close of the
war, and they have never from that day to
this had a claim oi right, excepting such as
the generosity ,of the Government has ex
tended t o them. 1., * * . * * ; » Their
rights are exactly such as the Government
accords—no more, no less.”
This dove-like bearer of the olive branch
is highly uueneed at the people of the South
for their persistent opposition (to. Radicalism
wilh all its usurpations, outrages and corrup
tions. He reprobates Southern obstinacy
and turbulence, and, like General Grant, is
determined to have peace. The following is
hia plan of securing the “welfare and peace
of the country.” General Grant himself will
hardly be able to improve upon a plan which
U apply as well to the Democratic Stales
the North as to the South—to one State
of the Union as another. He says:
“I now urge the necessity of continuing,
and, if necessary, extending military ruie
over every Southern State where the factious
element shows its head in a threatening man
ner. I.wo.nld urge this upon the grouods of
absolute necessity to the welfare and peace
of the country. Nothing short of this will
keep the-peace for any length of time. * *
* The Military Government should be made
strong and efficient, Rut mild and placable,
as tar as possible ; and.the warrant tor such
a form of government to continue until the
loyal element is at least equal in numbers'to
the 'disloyal, would be the same^sthat
which justified the nation in raising armies to
subdue the rebellion. ”
Again the writer says :
“Had they (the South). at the tenninatioii
of the rebellion accepted the situation and
all its duties, I and proved by their conduct
and spirit since then that the oldBleveu of
mischief had departed, out of
should be justified in doing ’
done and are doing in order
to citizenship; bat every
knows that we have in the first place as
sumed as a fact what we from onr hearts
desired should be such, , namely; thatIhe
South through their sufferinga had become
at least a passively loyal people, but our ex
perience with’ the observation of them during

informed of 'what is passing in the political
part of the Radical le
which is to crintroTWDfS
in the Southern States if need be by military
which purpesa a bill p^introduced in Con
gress a few days before the close of the late
session. But this measure, which necessarily
embraced all the States of -the Union, and
could have been applied to the Congresaior 1
districyof ^®orl<A8 $«£
Georgia, giving to the partisan Govern
of each State a force of two thousand militia
and a battery of artillery to eac‘h%istrict,
was so shocking to the sensibilities of pie
American people, and raised such a storm ot
remonstrance throughout the country that it
was sadd&bly abandoned. The next scheme
proposed and wbieh was urged by the carpet
bag representatives of the reconstructed
States, who found their way to Washington
during the last hours of the session' just in
time to get their per fliem and mileage, was
to organize and arm tira loyal militia after
the plan adopted by the political matri
Brownlow’of Tennessee. This scheme, hoi r
eyer, was liable to pome, of, *fbe same'ob-
jections as the first—it was a risky n
to undertake to arm only the loyal
arms might get into the hands of white men
—and it .was in torn abandoned. Still an
armed force sufficient to overawe an unarm
ed .andipearieabfo people was, deemed indis
pensable to carry ont the Radical scheme
for guaranteeing Republican form's of
ernment to the States, and to protect those
patriotic instrumentalities in the work, tl
..carpet-Raggera and scalawags, from personal
barm. Then it was that the Jacobin Di
rectory at Washington‘conceived'th'e idea
of copying after Ihose liberal governments
of France and Spain', in the- establishment
of an armed 8tate Eolice, to be unlimited
in numbers, and under the immediate
control of the ruling Jack Cide of each
Stafe. This plan, confining the wrong and
the burthen of the expense to Jthe subjugate;’
States, while it would be. equally effective
for'their diabolical and despotic‘purposes,
was not so liable to alarm the apprehensions
and ^Jtcite.,tiia indignation of. the .honest,
liberty-loving people of the North.. It would
place an immense amoqnt of power and pa-
tronage in .the hands ofj thefr moBYserjpfo
tools,’ and give employment arid subsistence
to the “loll” blacks. With the approbation
of the carpet-bag representatives in Washing
ton, the mandate ,i9 sent forth to the chief
wire-puller in the several State Legislatures,
and almost simnltaneonsly we see bills ior
the organization of a military police in al
most precisely the same form introduced in
the so-called Legislatures of North Carolina,
Sonth Carolina, Florida, Alabama and Louis!
aoy, in all of which States we believe the
measure has been adopted by a strictly party
vote. A friend has sent us the following
copy of a bill which has been introduced in
the Georgia House of Representatives by the
scowhegan member, Bryant, from Richmond
county :
