Joshua Hill hatrecitvcd the ap poi; tneut of collector of Uuitcd States lvot- 1 enuc for the port of Savannah. Fknianism —The raid on Canada was a sublime failure. The Fenians have re- 1 turned to their homes, their lenders have j been arretted—the money is gone and the j matter is ended. “II ad Centres" and 1 circles have gone up a spout. Texas. An old and reliable ciliz nos Terrell count} 7 , who has just returned from a two months tour of observation in Texas, gives it as his opinion that the. disadvantages of that State are more than an off sot to the advantages. Ho says the lands are very j rich and cheap, but he found no timber to fence them in, that being very scarce and not good when found, lie went out with a pretty hot Texas fever on him, but came back perfectly cured. Southwestern Georgia, is the best Texas In the South. Those who are already here had better remain ; those in oilier places who wish to better their couditiun should ! move hero. Prudence—Patience—Hope. If there ever was a time that Southern ers should think, it is the present. The most burthensomo task devolving upon us as Southern men, who have the lovo of country at heart, is that of keeping our feet out of the pa'b of tho extremists and radi cals. In the present eondi ion of tho coun try —with the voluminous causes for preju dice which the fi centers of the North aro every day producing, by the unprecedented attempts at oppression which their radical representatives— now in tho majority—are daily making, it certainly requires the ut most caution and the clearest discretion on our part to prevent civil discord, and an everlasting war of prejudice between the two scctiops—if not direct revolution. We aro not one of those who believe that every act in pro f rs tho ] r illigacy and morn 1 de generacy of tho radicals should bo taken up> by the Southern patriot and hurled with scorn back into their faces. These puny .u r— to be such in the finale—of tho radicals to heap disgrace and political degradation up on us aro not deserving of so much notice at our hands. Eminating as th ydo from the very sinks of prejudicial infamy, they should fall at the feet of all honorable men nnd never riseabovo that level. It will require some time to level the tow ering mountains of prejudice which tho late war has roared in the hearts of the the best of men. both North and South— and until Time, th.-<t great and irresistable dAtroyer of all things earthly, has worked this mighty change, it becomes us as lov ers of peace, to possess our souls with pa tience. Let the waters of fanaticism rage, even though at times they threaten to sweep away the last vestige of political right feeling confident that the rock-hound shores of truth and justice will finally say : “Thus far shall thou go,” etc. We do Bot wish to be understood as en deavoring to eradicate from the hearts of • ur people all of the spirit of resentment, and striving to produ e a spirit of submis sion to all wrongs—an ovecWking of all [olitical evils—far from it—the heartless acts of some men in power will, and justly should, live in .the memory of good citizens both north and soulh, until their own per tidy shall have sunk them to the darkest cells of oblivion. But the time for resis tance is not at hand, and we should re member that while the present state of feel ing exists generally amongst even cur Northern friends, almost any notion on our part toward the resentment of attempted wrongs, and showing up of the political rascality of some of their men, will appear to them more like sectional prejudice than what it really is—and everything which the imagination of that people conceives to bo prejudice in us, increases what there may already be of it in their own hearts. Thus, the political economist will at once sec that it is better for us to be prudently silent, while they fume with boistrous rage, than to act, when our action, but puts inti their distorted imaginations new grounds for fanatical fury and rigor. Let Sumner, Stevens & Cos., go on with their work of raising the negre above the whites of the South in the political scale, contrary to every edict of nature. It is a work that will Dever be accomplished, and its com. pletion is not hoped for outside of hearts that aro only awaiting a transfer to paDdi iDouium. And finally—let u a not bo discouraged by present circumstances, or frightened by the thunders of fanaticism, but rest our souls in peace with a full assurance that, with the inevitable triumph of truth and l ight, a bright and glorious prospect will \ et be opened up to us Editorial ICrovities. A majority of the Supreme Court of the State of Alabama, have decided the first and eighth sections of the stay law, postponing judgements on suit, unconstitutional—the second, third and fourth sections, which stay collections of judgements already rendered, unconstitutional and void.

Wake up. Dawson must bo behind in nothing good. Tho commissioner for the poor in Pickens district, S. C., says there are 800, families, in that district, on the eve of starvation. The Herald says the Court Martial which has boon trying Major Geo, who was Com mandant of the rebel prison at Bilisbury, has adjourned for a short period. Up to this time the expenses of the trial have been 8150,000, and no evidence criminating the prisoner has been adduced yet. ■The political situation in Europe is with out material change, save that France is arming, and is about to place a corps of ob servation on the German .and Italian fron tiers.

In Terrell county there are poor families with out even bread to eat save as they beg it from day to day from their neighbors. It is said that there are 33 connties which have made no report. We hopo Terrell is not one of them, yet wo have heard of tho appointment of no agent to receive it. For the Dawson Journal. Messrs. Editors': In my last letter, I sought to impress your readers with some re flections, tending to show the folly on the part of oif plcntcrs and farmers, who are cumulating and expecting to sell out their agriculturist interests, and invest the capital n other pur uits—and therefore arc ncg’cct ing to provide for the future operations of thoir farms and their own happiness and com fort on the plantation”. The extent of dis satisfaction that prevails among the agricul turalists, is alarmi.'g in view of the palpa ble truth , that the only hope of rebuilding this country, and restoring it to its political financial, or social power, is in the success that is to attend our agricultural industry. Tho proposition to abandon it on tho part of those, who aro educated and trained to it, is a direct strike at the vitality of onr ooun try. Do your readers propose to emba/k in merchandise? How can that flourish with out the production of thoso staple commo dities, which bavo been the souro-sof our wealth and power in the past, and which aro our only reliance for the like results in the future ? Do they propose to engage in manufactures? Thcso stand upon produc tions, r.s certainly as tho house stands upon its pillars; and will as certainly fall with a crash if they ere withdrawn. Do we not well know, that tho agricultural produc tions of this country, float the steamers on tho rivers and neighboring seas, and propel the engines upon our railroads, and that without them our card”, spindles, and looms, would bo psralized, the forges and furnaces cooled, the merchant’s counters unfrequented, the calling of tho artist, and the architect, would ccaso to inspire a love of the beautiful and elegant in improvements, the libraries of our learned professors, would cease to furnish food for tho mind, and all around us would decay. But I doubt not, while our people arc all willing to admit these general truths, they are as individuals, unwilling to admit tho force of their application. For instanco, du ring the war, every one knew that specula tions, extortions, withholding food and rai ment from tho army and people at home who wero poor efo., unuerniiningpublic confidene, alienating tho poor from the rich, and di verting the public mind from the original aims of tho Revolution, as well as from the evils p gainst which we were conten ding. We all knew this, and still individ uals, relying on tho patriotism of others, and the public virtue of the great majority would persist in these ruinous practices, and the se ductive influences of large personal gains, stake! against the loss of liberty, and the general ruin, caused the number of these in oiviutidis to increase every (lay, until a sea of corruption enveloped our country, beneath which tho fires of liberty were quenched forever. Those who bad not wealth to pro tect, and were not stimulated by their hopes for preferment, or their pride of character as soldiers, felt that all the original incen tives to fight had been ftmoved, and they deserted the army, and left us—as aD infant in tho hands of a giant. We were crushed, and if it was the fault of individuals, who relying upon tho disinterested patriotism of others, were seeking to make extraordinary preperations for their own case and comfort in after life. They did not desire it to be so*, but they exp ctcd that it should bo won, by the sacrifices of others, whilo they were to reap not only the benefits the pub lic shared, but hold all their ungodly indi vidual gains It is said that in the town of ,in tho State of , the pastor of a certain old-fashiond churoh, requested a demijohn of jrinc, at the bands of bis fiu gal congregation They proposed to place the emty demijohn under the pulpit, and each male .remember when ho came to church to bring a bottle of wine, and pour it in until tho vessel should be filled. The contributions went on for some time, and it was at last ascertained that the vessel was full; when the parson carried it home, and took out the cork, he found to his as tonishment and disappointment, that he had a jug us water. Each member relying upon the virtue and honesty of his bretheren, thought it proper, in his case to drink the wiue at home, and make th) contribution in water, and that tho deterioration would be so slight, that the good preacher would not detect the fraud, aud as they all loved wine, all resorted to the same trick. Thus it was, with our people during the war—or a large majority of them. And such is the tendency of things, as indicated by the purpose of our farmers and planters to get out of their present employment, and leave the country to sink in inevitable rain. Ckkon. An Historical Incident —The New York correspondent -of the Philadelphia Ledger writes : *•Preston King. —lt is not generally known to the public that this man for a time an incubus to tho White House, was made tho Collector of tho New York harbor to get him out of the way. But few under stood why he committed suicide ; but then aro sojne who have an idea why ho commit ted the act. It was no doubt, his consienee. I. was Preston King who kept Miss Sur ratt from seeing the President on the morn ing of tho executi m of her mother. The President knew nothing of her being at his door-step, in agonizing tears, to ask for the stay of the law for one short day. Old King kept tho l’rosident from knowing what was going on and, after the execution, it became so apparent that the condemned was innocent of any complicity with the real murderers, that it harrowed up hi3 soul. In fact he had no peace after her death, and becoming desperao under tho lash of consienee, no commit'od suicide. Have all the others who hounded this poor woman to the gallows got consienees yet ? We suppose they have, and knew they nmut Buff-r Litter stings.” Itiilin of in llic Comity Courts. Judge? Russell, of tho County Court of Chatham County, recontly appointed a committee comjtoaed of members of tho Savannah bar to report ‘‘rules of practico" for his Court, w hich committee reported as follows: 11 The undersigned commiteo appointed by your Honor to examine the Law consti luting the Country Court, mid to determine whether your Honor cfln adopt rules to govern the practice! f your court., and if so. what rules wo consider necessary and proper to be adopted, having carefully ex amined the subject, respectfully report that, in their opinion, your Honor is not author ized to make any rules, nor change or mod ify the Rules of Practice of the Superior Court, which nre by luw made the rules of your court, unless specially excepted. The power to make rules is vested in tho Judges of the Superior Court in conven tion, and to no others. Whether any of the linles of Practice of tho Superior Comt are applicable or not, is a question of law, to be determined by your Honor when the case is specially brought before you.” What I>o They Wish * The country is ringing with the disputes of politicians in Washington. What do they wish? Taking Mr Stevens, of Pennsylvania, as the exponent of the party bo leads, what is it. that he wishes ? Tho Union ? Not at all. Me can have it any day. It is only to say the word and the last memory of tho war will vanish in the atmosphere of pence and per fect union. What then 1 Power ? Nothing else. The simple solution of all the anxious caucussing of tho radical party is found in their desire to preserve power in their own cards. Tho evidence is in their acts. — Wbat is their present emotion? what the presnt subject of their most earnest delibera tion? llow to prevent the President from making appointments to office of men not belonging to the radical party. That subject occupies liiue-tenths of the time of the major ity in Congress. What is the burdon of the amendments to the Constitution which they propose. Nothing but tho preservation of power in their own hands, and the prevent ing of opposition votes, either now or in the next Presidential election. What a blessed calm the people would have if these faction ists were only removed from power ! llow prosperously and gloriously would all things go forward ! There is a singular blindness on tho part of men of property, to the fu ture of the country if radical management shall continue. Has any one who holds a United States bond any confidence in the wisdom of the men who are dragging us in to every sort of radicalism ? If so, the con fidence is sadly misplaced. There is a more immediate connection between the, coming elections of members of Congress and the fortunes of individuals than has yet seemed to be appreciated by any one. There is no one who proposes repudiation. When the ory is heard that ouc or the other party proposes to repudiate the national debt it may be disregarded at once as a mere politi cal cheat. The plan question for every man is, whether the debt is safer under con servative or radical management. What would the bonds of the United States be worth if Mr. Thaddeus Stevens were Secreary of the Treasury, with the powers now possess ed by that officer? What is likely to bo the future financial history of the country under radical lesislatipn, judging from the past ? vv hat.is the deht worth if the constitution is to bo amended and amended whenever it suits the ruling faction? These arc no idle questions. They are no party questions. Thoso merchants and bankers of New York who have always Called themselves members of the Republican party, know very well that it is no question between Democrats and Republicans, bnt it isaqus-tion between themselves and the radical men who are lead ing them to ruin. If the Congressional elections this fall fail to give tho President a substantial sup port; if the radical wipg of the Republican party succeeds in whipping the conservative wing into the support of the radical candi dates, as in tho Conneticut Legislature last week, the future of our very existence as a people, becomes more dark than ever, nor can any one point to the period when it will be any lighter. Two years more of such a Conrgess as this would ruin the na tion, past almost all hope of redemption.— Journal of Commerce. To the Women of Georgia. We make an appeal to all the true-hearted women of our State, and especially to those who have cot had their homes laid wasto during the late war, to assist us iu the last sad duty wo owe our brave countrymen who fell at the battle of Rcsaca, 14th and 15th of May, 1864, and whose bones lie bleaching on the hill sides around us. The immediate retreat of our army after that brilliant but disastrous engagement, and the occupation of tho country by the en emy for more than a year afterwards, pre vented the proper interment of our dead. But shall they still lie unburied, a silent reproach to us? Shall those whom we de lighted to honor whilo living, be less dear to our hearts now, after having sacrificed all in our common cause ? No! no! the response comes, eagerly though mournfully, from tha warm, sympa thetic hearts of our Georgia women, ever ready for every good work duiisg the last five eventful years, and they will not deny themselves all that is now left to tis —the burying and mourning our dead. Wo would suggest that tho ladies of each city form committees for the purpose of mak ing collections to bo appropriated to this sa cred cause. Mr. John P. Green, a cit'z*n of this neighborhood, has given a beautiful picoc of ground for our proposed cemetery, and Le will gladly receive, and use as directed, all money sent for the purchase of coffins, and a suitable enclosure of the ground—assisted by tho Women of Resaca.

Senator Poland, to whom was referred the Bankrupt bill whioh recently passed the House, will probably make a favorable re port to the Judiciary Committee next week, hut there is very little prospect of the pas sage of the bill this session, as it will lead to more discussion than there is time for the Senate to indulge in.
