David Crenshaw, about ten miles west of this plsoe, was fired by an inoeodiarj, botween one sod j two o’clock in the afternoon of the third inat. Tbe family were all absent at the Lae of Ihe firing, except his son Dr. Cren shaw, who had become fatigued from work ing in Ibe garden, and was roundly Bleeping in the house. It was by an inhuman effort that he made his escape from the flames—not even saving bis shoos, or coat. Everything , in the house, including Dr. Crenshaw’s books and medicines, was destroyed with tho ex ception of one featherbed and a small lot of bacon. The family are destitute of everything save the wearing apparel they have on their backs Mr. Crenshaw supposes tho house to hare been destroyed by a man the name of Head, j who threatened sometime ago to burn it. A warrant was issued sometime ago for | the arrest of Head, and every good citizen should use his utmost endeavors to bring the oQt-law tojnatice. Revivals in Macon. R viva! meetings have for several weeks in succession, been held in the two Metho dist churches of Macon, and with very en- \ couraging results. Fur the present the < meetings are temporary suspended. To j the Mulberry street Methodist Church 35 converts have been added, while 45 have joined the First Street Methodist Church. In the Babtist Church an interesting se ries of.revival meetings is in progress, and 20 have united with the church. The Presbyterian Cburch is also ?eby •! ing a season of revival aud 11 have been re-' ceived into its membership. Progress of Southwest Oeorgla. It cannot he dented that there ia at the present day more indications of progress and advancement of tbe general interests of this section of our State than any ante rior period has ever witnessed ; and it may n t prove uninteresting to our readers to compare our present c nditino to that of Southwestern Georgia some SO rears agti. Notwithstanding the fact that her people ; are still to a great extent laboring under j tho effects of the late war, there is a dis-' play of more enterprise and business ener gy than at any previous time. Many years ngo the State of Georgia, by lottery gave her public lands to her cit izens, in that part of tbe State known as ; Southwestern Georgia. They were laid j off in large tracts, the lots in some counties j containing four hundred aud ninety acres, j At that time these lands were thought to ! be worthless, and many fortunate drawers (if these land lotteries never </rantul them - that is pftid the sum of five dollars sot the grunt. About 1830 pome investigafon proved much of tie land to be valuable, which in duced speculators to buy it up, especially that portion situated between the Chatta hoochee and Fl'nt rivers. These lauds were in a short time populated with emi erai.ts from this and other States, and so rapid w-s the improvement that 1800, found the flourishing cities of Savhnnah Macon and Cohimbus, and the towns of Albany and Fort Gains connected by rail roads, r.nd a number of other important rauoiuJs some of them partial ly completed. So many of these great arteries -of trade, so recently made in a new country, are certainly sufficient evi dence of its great importance. So, it be seen that in the space of less than thir ty years, we And the forests of pine, the imaginary sen, of swnmp6 jungles and “worthless lands” of those who did not care to pay the amount of five dollars for tbe grant of lots drawn from the public lot cry, converted into a modern Egy pt—the Eden of the sunny South— a Innd pre-emi neat in agriculture, great in commerce, and literally ot-"u>ilk and honey.” Within few months we have known more than one of the citizens of our own county to make tours of inspection iu other parts —u little discouraged by the present state of affairs—principally in most cases, by the loss of so much of the cotton crop by the indisposition of so many of the freedmen to work. Hut wbat do they say when they return? “This is about as good as any.” Considering tbe condition of our whole country, politically, there is no section in the late Confederacy, which has been less affected by the unnatural changes in our social system brought about by the war than our own. The diabolical attempts of quasi philanthropist to damage our land still more by the instigation tfawarof races has met with poor success, and we Had the negroes generally nearer their proj>er sphere than in many other sections. Oar f turo mia our own bands—let us shape it with due judgement. Texas Electioh.—Texas elee.ion re turns are largely ia favor of Throck Morton for Governor, and the Uokm Conservative ticket is elected by an tuswmiis* majority Tuk Legislatures and the (Jowstmution al Amendment. —lt is stated that Gov Swaun will not oall an extra session rs the Maryland Legislature to ratify the constitu tional amendment. A dispatch from Wash ingtou says also that it is rumored is that city that the Governors of at least two or three Western States will not convene their State Legislatures for the purpose of ratify ing ‘.he amendment. Tho fiends of tbe ad ministration are fully satisfied that it will not he acted upon by the necessary number of States (27) before the fall elections. It is slso considered very doubtful whether a quorum of the Tennessee Legislature can bo got together Uiis summer. I The Wheat Crop. —The wheat crop, j says the Columbus Sun, where it has been threshed, us we learn from almost every portion of the South and south-west,is turn ing out mnch better than was anticiprted th e yield being far ahead of last year. This being the case, wo look for a decline in flovr from tbe present figures. Tbe South and tbo South-West has made nearly, if not quite enough to supply tbe home demand. The receipts from customs since the lat of July last, up to tho 10th ids) , amounted to the enormous sum of <163,000,000 in gold. Tbe total receipts for the fiscal year ending on the 80th of June, it is estimated, will reach <170,000,000, again t less than <85,000,000 last year. This tells the tale of overtrading, which has enabled the specu lators to get control of the gold market in New York and run the premium up to an exorbitant price. Ma. Davis and Family—A late Por tree Monroe dispatch states that in the re cently handsomely fitted up casemate at For tress Monroe for the accommodation of Mr. and Mrs. Jeff Davis and their family, they Ere mw living vi ry eoaifc rtably aDd pleas antly. Their numerous friends furnish them with all the various luxuries of the sea son, and the government it stinting nothing to make their residence at the seaside during tbe summer season as agreeable as possible. The relaxation by the military authorities of the restraints upon the movements of Mr. Davis is having n very brnrficial effect upoD his henlth. Tho weather is very warm, A Washington correspondent says the Ways and Means Committee have finished tbe wool cLuse cf the tariff blii, »L'l tho rates as follows: On cheap and com mon wod, 6 oenta per pound ;ou clothing and combing wools, valued St less than 32 cents per pound, 10 cents per pound and 10 per oent tul valorem ; on clothing wools val. ued at over 82 cents per pound, 12 cents per p undand 10 per cent ad valorem. This is in accordance with the terms agreed upon by the wool-growers and manufacturers. FBO Jit HMSJII.VG TO.V. Special Correspondence of flic Dawson Journal. Washington, D C. Jnne 27th 1866. Dear Journal: —Although the fear of an nihilation by the people, and the persistent opposition of the administration, drove tbe Republican party from the destruction Com mittiee’s Radical programme, and from the leadership of Thad. Stevens to that of tho more orafty Fessenden, it is very evident that tbe forced abandonment Las only inten sified their bitterness towards, and hatred of the Pi evident. Soon after the adoption of tbo “Caucus” plan by the House, and without awaiting the action of the President and Secretary of State, they passed a concurrent resolution, which does not require tbe signature of the President, instructing him to cause properly circulated copies of the document to be sent to the Executives of the States, to be submitted by them to thoir legisla tures Coi gress net unfrequently resorts to these concurrent resolutions of late, by way of manifesting thoir contempt for the man, who not only refuses to be made the instrument for the accomplishment of their mad schemes, bat defies all their efforts at intimidation. The President in reply to thi fr resolu - 1 tion did not stop with the iufi rmatiou that.; the work which it ecjlined had been execu I ted two days in advtncc of the passage of 1 the resolution, but went on to state that he regarded the aot as one purely min- j Serial, which in no way committed his administration to the support of the plan ; proposed, Ho also read them a wholesome i lecture and the propriety of hastily adopting ! Constitutional amendments materially affect-! ing 8.000,000 of people who are unjustly denied a voice in the affairs pf the govern ments and as hastily forcing thejn upon the consideration of Legislatures eleoted before the creation of any such issue, and controlled by the most subservient p- rty epirir, there by preventing the people from having any thing to say in the matter- For his pains in this respect, he of courso receives only thieir intensified damnation. He knew what tbe result would be howeer, ana bo spoke not for Congress, although addressing that body but tor the people, who sometimes hear and read, and who will get hold of this question some day. Another evidence'of the confiding love of Congress in tba President, was recently giv-; en by tacking on to an important bill in the House an amendment providing that no ar my officer shall be removed from his posi tion without a Couit Martial. This mon- , strous proposition which would prevent either the President or the Secretary of War ’ from chaDgiug and esiggniog the commands af officers in the army originated in tbe vague apprehensisu that General Howard might fall under the ban of the President, and give pisce to mother as Head of the I Freedmen ■ Bureau. These and many oth- j 5 er manifestations of potty spite—contempt!- | r ble in their origin nod the spirit that die- ! ( tales them—are of almost constant occur renoe, and from my present stand point, I * can see no indications of returning unity and good feeling in Congress. Under this state of thing*, tbo best men ' of the dominant party ave impressed with n the “writing on the wall,” and recog e oizel the necessity of anew eourso of I not ion biased »pon the y*>lioy of the *d ministration. They see only evil to result from an attempt in the pressent state of the case to maintain the ascen dency of tbo Republican party by intensi fying its sectionalism, when every consid erate of unity, peace aDd proepeiity sug gests greater nationalism. Therefore the Executive Committee of the National Uuion Club publish iu the pa pers of this morning a call for a National Convention, comrosed of two delegates from each Congressional District, and four from each State at large, to meet at Phil adelphia on tbe 14th day of August next to hold counsel together ou the present state of the Union. This all cemrs like a ray of hope iu a dark hour-—the creed submitted for the consid eration of delegate! is emiueutly loyal aDd patriotic. It embraces these cardinal doc trines, which are the only true basis of Na tionalism, viz; 1. The union of tho States indisolbble and perpetual. 2. The equality of the States in rights and dignity including the right of represon tation. 3. Slavery being abolished, cannot and ought not to be revived. 4. The States the only rightful judges of the qualification of their own electors. 5. The maintenance inviolate of the rights of tho States to regulate their do mestic affairs in their own way, subject only to the Constitute >n of t&c United States. 6. Each House of Congress, ft r itsself the only rightful judge cf the election returns and qualifications of its members, and tbe rcjectiou or exclusion of loyal Senators and Representatives, when properly chosen and qualified, is unjust and revolutionary 7. The purpose of tho war, viz: tho put ting down of tho rebellion, having been ac complished, war measures should e-ase, and peare and commerce should be promoted. 8. No delegate can take a scat in such Cenvontion who dues not accept tbe na tural situation and cordial[y endorse the foregoing principles, and who is not attached in true allegience to the Constitution, the Uuion aud tbe Government of the United States. Sure : y the patriotic people of the South, in view of the momentous interest at slake cannot fail to meet the conservative masses of the Nirth under this high national ground You must forget the past with its hopes and disappointments, and look to that future which promises a eomraon glory aud reDOwn to a united, people if they will but compre hend the dutie , and meet the cbi c aions of the hour. Send up your Stephens, your! Johnroas, your Lamars, your Haideus, your; Gardeners,your Neabits, aud your men of enlarged aud comprehensive views, but keep your petty wranglers and wordy heroes at home. The necssitics fur thisßew movement are obvius. The Republican party “so called,” as at present constituted, is not cap»pablc of successfully managing the affairs anu des tinies of this great nation. In its personnel it embraces wliigs of the Seward school, Buffalo free soilers of the Chase school, abo litionists of every degree, from the insane Garrison, to the gigantic and philosophi cal Beeche r ; disciples who regard the Con st tition as a “wicked compact with tie devil,” and those who were willing to let the Union slide \ men rocked in the cradle of prejudice, and where bitterness towards the Southern people, has become, a part of their nature; and last but not least., a large body of men of the Jefferson, and Jacksou sohool of politics who bocanio identified with the party from a oneness of foiling and purpose to avert the late attempt at a dissolution of the' Union. These elments are inharmonious. Those who havo hereto fore subsisted alone upon their sectional prejudices, desire to strive for future ascen dency by intentl/yiny the sectionalism of the party, while as before stated, the more liberal, recognize the paramount duty of na tionalism. Ou the* other hand the old Democratic party, as at present organized, or disorgan ized, is not in a condition to assutno the control and manage the affairs of the nation. In the South rebellion sank it into infamy under the lead cf the Ithcltf. the Iversons, ; and the Yanceys, while in the North, the j seducing cout sels of the Woods, the Long®, | an! the Valandingham?, have left it with a polluted rcoord and greatly thinned ranks. | The true plan then, si to organize all the elements of nationality, North and Sonth in to a great National Uuion party to be. hcad led by the administration, of President Johnson. Iladic&l sectionalism will then be ctushed, animosities will be wiped out; comity and good will will take the place of strife and discord ; commerce and industry will fliurisb, and we will soon blossom' as t ho rose. Thomas A Kendrick of Indiana, tbe leading U. 8 S .rfitor on the Democratic side unites, with the Committco ia announc ing this oall, and if the Southern people will only take hold of the matter in a prop er spirit, there is little doubt but what the movement will rally to its support almost | the entire Democracy of the North. Tho weather is opprossively hot hero at present —so much so that sleeping is almost j out of the question. Notwithstanding this j fact however, Congress, gives less promise of i adjournment now than at my last report.— j The half baked citizens are seeking tempo ! rary relief by numerous excusions by day j and night down the Potomac, to various points of interest. Ia the meantime intesti nal di, oases prevail extensively, creating ap prehension of the early advent of cholera. Inosico. A Double gnciMt — A determined dou- j ble'suioidc, Dear Paris, bus just been brought! to light. A river keeper on tbe Marne, while | passing along the banka near Joinville-le- ; Pont, observed the bodies of male and female ' floating near the surface. Having brought, them to laud they were found to be bound to gether, the man’s left arm to the woman’s right, while the former had also about ten pounds weight of stone in his pockets They were each elegantly dressed, bore no marks of violence, and had apparently been in the water about a tortnign'. The Chicago Republican quotes the re oent expression of Thad. Stevens in Congress, that “be would not give the snap of bis fin ger for the plan of reconstruction with the ; third sec’ion lelt out,” afidj replies “ Ua j less Mr Stevens and bis associates in Con ! gress hasten up tho important work of rc- J storing the Union, they will find that the I country docs Dot care a snap for them, hut I dote care very much for an immediate restc -1 ration of practical pease in all parts of the ' Union ” 1 tattle ill Mexico. Brownsville, Texas June, 18, ) via New Orleans, June 25. j Wo Lave very important intelligence from Mexico this morning. On the 7tb inat., Gen. Mejia started a train from Mat nmorns for Monterey, of 250 wage, s heavi ly laden with valuablo merchandise. The value of the traiu was near <2,000,000. A guard of at least 1,600 Impeiial troops, under the command of Gen. Olvera, went with it. Oo the 16th inat., Geo. Escobedo, at the head of 4,008 Liberal troops, attacked the train between C’amargo and Meir, the fight commencing at 6 o’clock in the morn ing, and resulted in a complete victory to the Liberals. The Mexican Imperial troops threw down their arms ; tho Austrang fought desperately, but were overpowered. Tbo Imperial loss was 500 killed and wounded, 800 prisoners, 14 pieces of artillery, and the entiro train of 250 wagons Tho Liberal loss ia very slight. Gen. Olvera, Imperial, is severely wounded through tbo shoulder, but escaped capture. Geii. Mejia still holds Malamoras with a handful of troops, but will be forced now to evacuate* This victo y will give the Liberals poseession of North ern Mexico. Cortidas is reported to be between Mata moras and the stragglers of Olvera’s army, and will no doubt, capture many prisoners. These facts are pt rfectlv reliable,having beeD gathered from official letter* received from Escobedo’s headquarters, and are fully cor roborated by a gentleman from Matamoras. LATER. One hnnered Imperial cavalry have reach ed Mutauioras, and oorroborted the above. They say Olvera is badly wounded, an 1 will reach tbe city some time to-day. Plait of the Campaign. The whole plan of the campaign has been thorong! ly arranged, but has bscn kept se cret till the present, movement of tho Prus sian troops makes tbe probable intention of Pt ince (Juarles Fredrick evident. He has bad bis headquarters for several days at Marearo, and tho first second corps, making the western wing of the whole army, bavo been cantoned arc tied there. Tbe King will leave Berlin and take command of the army in person, with General Molkte as chief of staff, while General Von Voigt Reretz took the same position with Prince Fredrick Charles. It is the plan of Austria, no doubt, to at tack Silesia, thus driving the Prussians to alvance on Dresden. The moment tbe Prus sians crossed into Raxony, it is belioved that | BcDodek’s troops on the Bohemian frontier of Saxony would at, onco move oa Dresden. The Austrians will thus, if they use the railways, gain oonsidcrablo advance upon the Prussians , and reach the Saxon capital first. Bencdek will probably at tempt to carry tho war into Saxony, and Southern Bra-denburg, because the line be twoen tbe Bohemian frontier and Berlin is shorteT by that route than by Silesia, and Berlin i» supposed to be his objective point The plains of SaxCny also afford favorable ground for the edebrated Austrian cavalry. The movement, however, is too littie advan ced to develop fully the plan of either army. Crinxell’s Statement—The following is the statment of Mr Grinnell before the oom mittee appointed to investigate the difficulty between. Rousseau and himself: As 1 was passing out of the rotunda I was seized by Mr. Rousseau, who swrariug says, “I want an apology.” To this I. replied, “Yuu are tbe one to apologize; yon began the attack. I havo no apology to make.”— ( lacing his band on his breast to draw a weapon, I seized him by the collar, when he ■truck me five or six times over the face wilt a cane having an iron end, until it was briken. I said, “You have assaulted me in the house, but. I have no desire to hurt vou.” He said, “You and and coward, I want to de grade you ” I saib, “ You oaount do it. I i uly defended myself in debate.” He con tinued swearing, when I said, “If tire crowd is done with me I will leave,” and picked up a piece of the cane and walked away. I was alone and saw him surrounded with friends. I did not resist, presuming there was a purpose to assassinate me. I have suff-T --ed considerably from tbe injuries in ike sac« and on tbe shoulder, received from tho iron point cf the canc. Mexican News —The Matamoras Ranch ero, of tho 16tb,says: That Cordova affair turns out that nobody was kilted, and had nothing to do with the Liberal party. From what wo can learn, several Ameri cans took advantage of some poor Mexican girls, which aroustd the indignation of rela tives. The consequence was that an armed party, friends and relations of the girls, seiz ed and carried offls Anaericare. None had been killed or would be. Two of the party had been released, who said the others were safe. If this hi. true, which beyond dcubt it is, tbe patties who mmmitted the outrage on tbe girls ought to have boen hung on the spot. MEXICAN NEWS. Washington, July I—A 'ettcr from a source to be credited, dated Tampico, Mexi co, June 10, says the people of HuojueOe and all other principal towns in Huasse Dis trict, havo raided again in favrr of Juartz. — V*ictoiii is aUo in the hinds of the Juarzists. The writer says the latter will take Tampi co from the Imperialists, its capture beiug entirely feasible, as it is garrisoned by Mex i loans, impressed in the service, and they will not fight against their own people. i Violent Btohm. —Our oity was visited ;on yesterday afternoon by a violent storm which did considerable damage. Mr. L. B-. Davis , one of our broad street merchants waa seriously injured by tho fall of a cotton • press; a stable near tbe Bassford Brick yard was blown down.; we learn that several buildings were unroofed, and a horse was killed by tho falling of a tree; a horse be longing to 11.

On the 19th, tbo Prussians entered Dresden, the King of SaX'-ny withdrawing his army into Bohemia, with a view of effecting a janction with the Austrians. Diplomatic relUioos between Prussia and Bavaria have been broken off. Ibe Prus sians entered Hanover and threaten Frank furt.
