Heavy Dea 1.1 NO TN Othbert—We lenrn that Jake Davis, of Cutbbcrt, had an unknown “customer” to enter his store in },jg absence one night last week, and lilt the small sum of ten or fifteen thousand dollars. I; seems that some folks are determined not to allow the dull season to prevent their “raising the wind.” The New York Herald thinks the Re publicans are in the melting mood, and, like n great field of ioe at the approach of spring, are now spliling and dividing in every di rection. Until we sec which way the largest por tion of it gees, we can’t tell where the Her ald stands. “Ball Run” Russell witnessed the battle of Sadowa from a high tower, at a safe dis tsnec from the slaughter, and wrote his ac count there. — Boston Post. We suppose he learned this lesson in re gard to a “safe distance” at Manassas. Tlie Clreat Battle. We surrender our outside columns— which we generally devote to litercture, and variety—to an accurate description of the great battle of Sodowa, the most extensive clash of a r ms known to modern times. It will be seen bew the Prussians used the celebrated “needle gun,”—bow they finally gained the victory over the Austrians, and will provo the most interesting and exciting article presented to the reading publio in many a day. Read it. The A<‘\v Orleans Riot. To those who have read the New Or leans papers for the past two months, the news of the recent rot can scarcely have been a surprise. The most respectable journals of that city have protested against the calling of a convention whose avowed object was the seizure of the Btate and municipal governments from the hands of the “Johnson men,” and the restoration of Radical rule; and whose probable inten tion was the precipitation of a riot which tary law, at least in New Orleans. The so called State Convention which first met in April, 1864, represented perhaps a dozen parishes hy means of delegate Louisian ians who were mainly from the North. Bit ting, if we remember, some sixty dave, tho members, alter voting themselves $lO each per diem, presented shameful bills in the neighborhood of $200,000 for c : gars, li quors, carriage hire, luxuries, and refresh ments generally They eat a little while every day at the convenient “cocktail’’ hours, and one of their own Radical sheets in spite of the arrest of the editor, made a full exposure of their orgies, and printed tho details of their enormous bills, which were sect to Washington, and were paid no doubt out of the same service fond as defrayed the expense of General Banks’ masked balls iu the Opera House, and other wise “reconstructed” Louisiana. The Convention, when it adjourned, did not dissolve, though in the late attempt to re convene, Judge Durell, the president, de clared that when it adjourned it ceased to legally exist, and ho refused to reconvoke the body. It seems, however, that there were enough of the conventioDists to reas semble without waiting lor a formal call from Governor Wells—which he at first re fused, and finally and reluctantly'consented to issue in September. One of the first acts of the Convention was to call out ne gro troops as an escort, and the result was a riot. Wo are glad to find from all we can gather on the subject that the two or three white men killed, were degraded men who assisted in getting up the Convention and bringing about the not. With due respect foif the dead in all cases, we are satisfied that they will prove as little loss to the State as any that could have fallen. The Radicals will no doubt immortalize WLm men, as martyrs to the Uaioa cause, jjHPpf.'Ce their names aide by side with Wd John Jlrown.

A Convention of the Socond Cmgression al District of Georgia, was held on the Ist - inst., at Americus, to appoint delegates to the National Union Convention to be held in Philadelphia oa the 14th of the present month. Hon. P. J. Strrzler, of Dmghcity called the Convention to ordi r, and nominated as President, Col. G. M. Dudley, of Sumter. W. B. Guerry and J. J. Harris were nomi nated as Secretaries. — On calling'the list of county delegates they were found to be present from seventeen counties —eight counties not being represen ted. Tho committee appointed to prepare business for the meeting, reported the fol lowing resolution s , which were unanimously adopted : Resolved. —That we send delegates from this District to represent us in the approach ing Philadelphia Convention, hoping that the result of a free con=ul'a i>n between the conservative men of all sesiion®, will re sult in the reestablishing of the Constitu tion on its proper basis, and the prosperity harmony, and happiness, of the whole coun try. Resolved ■ —That such delegates go to said Convention unins'ructcd, and left to set acording to emergencies, upon the dic tates of sound discretion and sincere patriot ism. Resolved. —That Gen. Eli.

Resolved. —That we recomend lion. A. H. Stevens, lion. H. V. Johnson, Hon. A. 11. Chappel, and Hon. I), A. Walker, as delegates from the State at large. On motion, it was agreed that the proceed ings of this meeting be published in the Dawson Journal, and other papers of this District- Minorily Itcport on the Case of Kir. Davis. About the most infamous piece of busi ness brought to light, of the Rump Congress, is shown by the minority report of Mr. Rog ers of New Jersey—one of tho Committee of investigation. Mr. Rogers was prevented by the Jacobins, wLo were 'O the majority on the Committee, from soring fho minutes of the trial in order to nstko his re port until just twenty-four hours previous to ad journment: but his report is clear enough in showing wherein men in high placep have connived at, if not actually ongaged in bribery and other low trickery to bring about the murder of Jeff. Davis. Luckily for the truth of history, and the honor of the nation, there was one honest man od the Commiteee. Read the extracts: The report declares the charge of com plicity made ngainst Mr. Davis nit only ab surd, but the mere work of malice, and ava rice, and claims that the testimony adduced was a chain of flimsy fabriia ions. And these assertions Mr. Rogers bases upon the testimony of the acompliccs of Conover and Montgomery. Mr. Rogers bcleivcs that the exposition of this plot so invalidates any testimony coming through the hands of Mr. Holt, that it renders all beleif id the charg es against Davis, Clay, Tucker et. al. impos sible. The nature of this testimony is best shown by extracts therefrom. May 8, 1865.—Oampbeli’s testimony.— The testimony of this witness, taken by Judge Holt, was read to him in the commit tea room, and asked if it was true, and he replied no, it is all false. “Why did you make it!” “ Iwas informed by Mr. Conover that Judge Holt had offered a. reward, of 8100, 000, for the cap.ure of Jifferson Davis; that he had no authority really to do it; and nsw that Jefferson Davis was taken they bad not enough agaipst him to justify them in what they had doae; that Judge Holt wanted to get witnesses to prove that Davis was interested in the asassination of President Lincoln, so as to justify him in paying tha 8100,000. Speaking of the woman that bad testified in Holt’s office to corroberate Conover, Camp bell says at this examination : Sarah Dough lass is not her real name. Her name was Dunham. There was another vv.mac sworn. Her name giveu was assumed. One was ConoVbT s wife and the othir his sister-in law. TUt> one that called her self Mrs Dunham is Cc.tever’s wife. ( O over’s name is Charles Dunhaui. Conover t Id me that if | I engaged ip it it wa» not going to hurt any body, that Jefferson Davit, would never be brought to trial, apd that if this evidence got to him he would leave the country. Conover directed me to assume tne Dame of Campbell. There was a person described who was supposed to bo the implicated in that affair, and I w; s reprinting tha’ pa-ty. Ho met Conover, in tho first place, by the appointment or Snevel. Bttevel sod l otnld make money out of it. Money wa my motive. 1 received one hundred and illars from C mover and five hundred dollars from Judge Holt. I gs t one hundred and fifty doll its at Boston and one hundred dollars, at St. Albans. 1 went to Canada to hunt up a witness to swear false, who was to rep resent Lamar Snevel audConover togeth er arranged with me to go to Canada. Bne vel saw the written evidence, I was to swear to after Conover. May 24. 186 G.—Joseph Sr.gvel sworn; bis right name is Willian H. Roberts. Ilis deposition before Holt read to him, and signed Joseph Snevel, he stated, was fabe from beginning to end, Conover wtote cut the evidence, and I learned it by heart. I made it to make money. I received 837;> from Ilolt and odc hundred dollars from Conove r I told Conover that I was com ing on here to tesrify to the truth; that I had not had any rest since I testified to what I did. He said I would be in a worse fix than I was now. This was on last hat. urday. He Said things would bo s tried, and there would be no further trouble. When the false evidence I was to swear to was read over to me by Conover, Cambell and Conover’s brotherinlaw (Mr. Anson) were present. Conovor told me, he know -.vhat Holt would ask me, and Conover ask ed me the same questions. I gave the evi dence before Ilolt. When I was wrong, Conover would nod his bead. C mover was present when I was sworn hy Ilolt. When Conover wnrid nod, I wiull then correct it ns near as I could—Cambell, Conover, and Holt prescut. Cambell and I rehearsed at the hotel in Washington. Conover said“l asked if such a sum would be satisfactory ? I said it would. I cant tell how much 1 received. Conover was an rgettit of the Government to hunt up evidence. Letter from Hie Mon. Alexander H. Stephens. 7b tl.e Editors of the Rational Intelligencer : Gentlemen : I ask a place in your col umns for the cncbsod letter to me from tho Hon. Alexander II Stephens. In commit ting it to the piress I am taking a questiona ble liberty with him, for the letter is mark ed private. But«jn tho present circumstan ces of the country, I think it so desirable that the people should know tho real tem per of the South, that I feel justified in pub lishin<r *his letter from one who, at the out break of the war, was t.he representative man of the Union party of the Booth, and is the recognized exponent of tho Southern sentiment at this moment. President Lincoln had great confidence in Mr. Stephens. He told mo repeatedly that he had offered him a seat in the Cabi net and he retained great regard for him to the last. Y r ours, respectful!v, M. Blair. Montgomery Cos., Mn., July 29, 1866. Crawforuville. Ga., July 21, 1866. Eon Montgomery Blair, Washington. D C: Dear Str: Your letter rs the 17th inst. ri before me. I thank you heartily for it. No man in the United States did, or more cordially approve and endnrso the ob jects of the proposed Union Convention at J.ha_ n pediency, I doubled the propriety of my taking active part in it. I was also in doubt, to some extent, whether, with other views on the part of those who made the enb, the were Dot so phrased in (he cal’ as to exclude all who occupied a similar position to my own, and from other considerations as tbo-e which had occurred to me. Your letter relieves me from the last class of doubts, but those of the other class still exist, notwithstar.ing your strong views to the contrary. Individually my whole soul is enlisted in the cause of a speedy, full, and perfect restoration of tho G vernment under the Constitution, aud its permanency under the Constitu'inn, ao it now stands. There is nothing within my power, that I am rot willing cheerfully to do to accomplish that end. Indeed, (you will excuse me in say ing it, but it is’the truth,) I would he willing to offer up my life itself, if hy so doing this great result could be obtained, and pesee, union, and harmonv, p'osperity, happiness, and constitutional liberty be thereby secured to the millions now living, and the untold millions hereafter to live on this continent. Thero are many persona! embanassments or difficulties in the way of iea going to the Convention—these I alluded to before, but. lam resolved to be there if I can. In no event shall it ever be truthfully said of me that I failed to do evervthieg in my powor to save the country and its institutions. I did in 1860 exert my efforts to their ut most extent to avoid the late most lament able war, and to save the Union on oonititu nl principles without a conflict of arms. This I did, too while many of those now so clan o -ous f'r what they call ‘ the Union cause” were giviDg.eneeuragemcnt, at least, to the extreme men at the South by clearly and decidedly intimating, if not fully express ing a perfret willingness, on their part, that “the Union might slide” if the people of the South so willed it. I was even taunted with endeavoring to hold our people on to a Union that was no longer cared for by lead ing men of the dominant party of the North. I withstood these even when I knew (or was informed truly, as I believed,) that there wa9 an organized body of men in Havaitnah to seize the custom House, Fort l’ulaski, &c., in case the State did not secede. All this I slated to you, and to which you allude in your letter before me ; nor should I have any hesitancy is stating it to tho public if any public good thereby be effeoted. The public good is my only object. llow be-4 to subserve that, consistently with truth, honor, and uprigthness, is the only question with me. Personal interest have no influ ence with me whatever—at least I think so and may be excused for saying so. Had I been governed by personal feelings, I should have had nothing to do with the late troubles further than entering my earn at protest against them. And had I been governed by personal feeling I should not now be in the situation I am. If the Union should be restored under the Constitution, as I earnestly disire to see it done, and I am willing to do all I can towards that end, it is my fixed purpose to retire forever from all connection with pub lic affairs. So that while it would seem that my present efforts are tendiug to a re sult in which I have more or ltss personal interest—that is, my admission a9 a senator in Congress—yet I assuse you I never ex pect or intend to hold that position long, even if tho scat should be awarded me.

Commercial : Have just return ed from the cotton reigiotis of the South.— I take pleasure in giving you tie result of my impressions as to the forthcoming crop. I have seen the growing crops in Tennes see, Nonb A'flhama, Mississippi and Ar kansas, and have had opportunities nf con ver.-ing with gentlemen who have recently visited the mere Siuthern portions of tho cotton country, and the fact is patent that a very small amount of cotton will be sent to market this year. Except in a few favored localities, the most discouraging prospects are seen. The labor system is much disorganized, and in places where one would expeet to seethe ootton stalks four to five feet high, they are but a few inches above the ground, and in very many cases almost invisible, by reason of grass and weeds. I believe it is only where the lessee system is adopted, i. e. where the freeduien divide the proceeds of the crop with the proprietor, that anything like a fair prospect is entertained. In the favored looaliti s to which I refer, the yield is quite promising. This is owing to three causes . 1. The lessee system, identifying the la borer with the success of the enterprise. 2. Immunity from the high waters of the Mississippi in the spring. 3. Good, fresh seed, cotton having been raised there the last season and preserved. I have seen one large crop of cotton in Phillips county, Arkansas, the proprietor of which says that if ho can secure the fruit | already on the stocks, in the shape of blooms, squares, &c., ho can make a bale of j 500 pounds to the acre. The same gentle man, however, traveled with me over two hundred miles of cotton territory, and, after seeing the prospects there, declared that he would not give the proceeds of his 1,500 acres for all the cotton he saw. If the parties who, at the planting-time or before, estimated the present years’ crop at 1,500,000 bales, were now tc canvass the | country, I believe their figures would be re duced fully one-half. nAUItItU.
