“BTtX ARP.” •!The Maw Meeting at the City l IJall Last Night IiKTTTB from: the Gheat Georgia Hi:- A call was made yesterday for a mass SoHI ^-“te^SSiSSMSwfc \ Frw Mhhtbis. j the purpose of uniting in aa expression 1 o! disapprobation o( the attempt now '>o- ing made to prolong tbe term of the present Legislature A large concourse of people assembled in the open air fti- the City Hall at an early hour. Hod. "Wil- lium Ezzard, Mayor of the city, was called to preside, and J. T. Glenn, and Walter Gordon were appointed Be ere tar On motion of Jlun. )V. F. Holdea, the following committee was appointed to ““ business for th© meeting: Holden, C. R. Osgood, A. Aus tell, A. If. Colquitt, Jolin Collier, L. J. Glenn, Arthur Hood, T. I*. Saffold and C. 11. Wooten. From the Atlanta Daily Son.] Mb. Edittb : I’m sorry I can’t fill my prom ise to call on you. Tm goin homo, lam. I'm tired of this cvcrlaatia foes. Tbert’e some de- velmont up, and I’m jnlraa about it. I’ve beard lota of war talk in the Legislature to-day.— There’* signs of fight. I don’t think 0 dollars a day would provoke such hostile language. One feller said they was Just rarin and chragin for their constituents, and that was all 0 dollars gas, but it didn't smell like gas to me. The day J got here thcro was shoo tin, and n man lulled. Then again. I see tho members and the outsid ers dividin up iu littlo squads about at night and whisperin and juglin and pirontin around. They aro plottin agin somebody I know. I heard one one feller say “prolongation,” and another said “hell,” and another “dam,” and I heard jaw teeth grit,’' I was a private in Corputs battery, and I know what a prolong is. It’s a big hemp rope, with LooLs on the ends, what hitches the cannon to tho powder box. There’s goin’ to be shootin certain, and Homebody’s goin’ to be hurt, and I want Captain Corput to understand that I have resigned. I hoard another crowd talkin about State aids. I suppose they are to be on tho Govern ore staff. Brown had many a oils in *03 and’4. Hal said he had 700, and Hal ought to know. A Stait Aid is a good thing. He can aco the battle from afar off The further the better for mo. I heard a member say he was afrood of all tho State Aids would be killed, but that lio ahould fight mity hard on the road from filaooa to Knoxville. Another said he should do his fightin between Borne and Col umbus. If a man can pick his ground it’s a good thing. Mr. Editur, there’s a beep of fuss generally. Amsntawkcd2 days in the House about the penitentiary and the conviks, and wlilppin and slashin and delicate parts, etc. I thought he thought a good deal of his-seir. I was sonyto see the members asleep while ho was spealdn, for i think it was very disrtspekfnl. 1 man said the spakiat didn't care a dam for the conviks, but was jess playin his last card agin the f iovnor, and that he watt then goin to sink down tetwemt Silla A Karyodis, unknelled, unhanor- •■•1 and unsung. J notieed his tawk was all ateut colored conviks; be didn’t seem to be sorry for a white man. A man in the gallery was powerful mad with sum editur—maybe it was you, I don’t know— but ho axed a man whether he would whip the editur or not. The man said he didn't know and couldn’t say, for he hadn't read tho piece, but that as a general thing in the abstract it was right to whip ’em. Ef I was you I would carry a weepin of some soart. even ef it was only an nm- I got tired of all this, and wauked over to Whitehall for peace. A friend [I suppose he was a friendt found me and said he wanted to eee me particularly. He took me away back and hauled out some little thumb papers full of figures, and said he wanted me to insure my life. That skeerd me worse than anything, for it looked like I was in danger, and he had just found it out. I axed him if he thought there would be a light. He explained things to me, and I felt re lieved, and declined to insure for the present, you eee I felt mity well, and coulden’t see tho necessity. At the next corner I met another friend, who seemed dad to boo mo exceedingly, lie held my hand in his several moments. He axed me if my life was insured. He said ho was agent for the very best company in tho world. I axed him how long a man would live under his company. He then explained to me that* man might die at any time; that they didn’t under take to keep a man from dyin. So I declined but expressed my gratitude for bis interest in my welfare, and I promised to buy a policy as coon as I got eick. Just as I left him I heard him call pome feller a dam phool. When I got to tho hotel there was a feller watin’ for me on tho tame business. Ho talked to mo for an hour about tho uncertainty of life a ml tho certainty of death. I thought, perhaps, ho was a missionary. Ho seemed muc corned about my wife and children, and twice wiped his eyes with a whit© pocket hnd- kcrchief. 1 knows 1 ho was a friend, and told him I would reflect seriously abont tho matter. I believe that company is a purely philanthrop ic institution, and would lend a poor fellow a few dollars if he was sufferin’ I think I will try to bor row a little from their agent to-morrow. This morning the first one camo to seo mo agin, and I concluded I was looking mity bad, and axed him to excuse mo as I was not feclin’ welL 1 went to Dr. Alexander and got * dose of salts. He axed me if I was sick. I told him I supposed 1 was, and the reason why. He then told me all about it, and said thero was 100 of them fel lers in town, and they all had augers, long au gers, and they bored about half an inch at the first interview and an inch at the second in tho same hole, and so on, until they got to the hol low, and the patient give in and took a policy. I don’t know about that, but I will say they are the friendliest, moat sympathized and kmdest- heaxted men I have evcrstrnck; only I don’t like *** much talk about coflius and grave-yards. 1 didn't take tbo salts. But, Mr. Editur, I tell you there is trouble a brewin.’ I saw old Bock and General Gordon and Col. Styles a talking 1 together, and old Tige was- ent fur off; old Bock’s gray beard was a wagin om inously, and old Gordon’s scare was a jumpin’ about all over his face; 8tyles looked like he wanted to eat somebody. I heard him say something about “Orgca’n Stables,” I suppose that is where ho keeps his war horses. Scott ■ amo up and said something about the rear guard. He’s tbo devil on rear guard, and the array knows it. .Tim Waddell dropped in and remarked be ‘just as leave die as live if old Bock said so.” At this moment a feller come along singin’ The Political Future. Washington, July 14, 1870. Republicans from tbe South, at pres ent in Washington, take a gloomy view of tho fdtnation at home. A Louisians Republican, for instance, informs Ins’ friends in the Senate that Louisiana will givo 5,000 Democratic majority next No vember, And 25,000 at the next Presiden tial election. A Mississippi, Republican predicts a TELEGRAPHIC. Democratic victory in that State in No vember. He told Alcorn, tho other day, it was inevitable, and Alcorn laughed.— Novr, if Alcorn had been at heart a Radi cal, be wonld havc cried ; bdt he never shed a tear—on the contrary, «< above stated, be langhed;’ Depend upon it, that man Alcorn—the old friend of Clay, , Webster and Fillmore—is “ri]>e fortrea- Tho meeting was addressed l>v Hon.I son, stratagem and spoils.” Joshua Hill, Hon.

The meeting was very euthusastio and harmonious. The following preamble and resolutions wore, amid a storm of applause, unanimously adopted: Whereas, The Congress of the United Slates, did, at its last session, pass •*” ic majority io*Novemlwr. Enough said abont Alabama. G«o*gia, not being as yet reconstruct ed, I leave out of the account for the present. Son’ll Carolina may beset down os doubtful, but tho Honorable Frederick Augustas Sawyer, one of her Senators—a act wMeli was approved on the' 15th itst, j native, by the \ray, of Boston, Mass., and wherein it was declared that tho State of 1 Georgia, having complied with the recon struction acts, and by a legal Legislature ratified articles 14 and In as amendments, to the Constitution of the United States, is therefore entitled to representation in " Tress; and hercas, Tho said act contains a pro to the effect that this nor any other act of Congress shall be so construed as to deny to the people of this State their right to hold an election according to the Constitution thereof, nor so ai to affect the term of any officer appointed, nor any member of*the Legislature elected under said Constitution, and, Whereas, There are certain persons >w seeking to pervert the time meaning and intent of said act of Congress by en deavoring to secure the passage of reso lutions by the General Assembly now in session, to postpone an election till after the next meeting of Congress, and to re peal all elec:ion laws now existing in tins State; and Whereas, The attempt thus to deprive tho people of this State of their rights graduate of Harvard University—pur sues «o conservative a course as to lead many persons to suspect that he appre hends a bouler-erseaient there in Novem ber. In Tennessee, the Radicals give it up. Maynard may possibly bere-elected in ihe Knoxville District If so, lie will be tho only Radical member from Tennes see in the next Congress. Etheridge is on the war path in his district, and he will be elected. North Carolina, as the Southern phrase has it, is looking “very peart” The Holden party there is dwindling every day, and will go nnder forever in No vember. Reqviescat in pace. Virginia is already redeemed. Govern or Walker is a trump, and you will find nulla vestigial retrorsum there. The Old Dominion is good for 25,000 Conserva tive majority. Maryland and Kentucky, in spite of negro suffrage, will maintain the present independence of Radicalism. Delaware will he a close State—but who knew the Blue Hen’s Chickens to secured by the aforesaid act of Congress, fail au emergency ? They always and tho Constitution of Georgia, is op- come up to the scratch when required. Pennsylvania Republicans are not in favor of negro snffrage. Tho Fifteenth Amendment there is a two-edged kword, and cuts right and left. In the southern tier of counties the white people do not yet believe that negroes are’ their equals. Nor in _ Lehigh, nor Lycoming, nor Dempshire either, Simon Cameron to-the contrary notwithstanding. How it may be in Lancaster,‘ deponent saith not. — A county that worshipped such a Btrange and un-oath god as Thad Stephens, institution of Georgia, posed by the great mass of citizens of this State, of all political parties, as a measure contrary alike to the true mean ing and intent of the act of Congress, and of the Constitution of the State, and subversive of the peace and welfare of the inhabitants of this commonwealth; and Whereas, The citizens of Atlanta, to gether with a large nc’ ioer of visitors from different parte of the State, re gardless of past political differences, moved by a common jieril, have met to gether for tho purpose of protesting in the name of justice, liberty, and free govefnment against any interference by the General Assembly with the guaran teed rights of the people ; be it there fore Resolved, That we strongly reprobate the course of those members of the Gen eral Assembly, who are seeking the pas sage of resolutions postponing an elec tion beyond the time prescribed by the Constitution, tho effect of which is to continue themselves in office in defiance of the rights of the people. Resolved, That ignoring past political differences, we unite as citizens of Geor gia, in order to sccnre the rights of oui people in holding an election on Tues day, after the first Monday in November next. Resolved, That we respectfully sug gest to onr fellow citizens in every coun ty in this State, without regard to past political differences, to hold at au early day public meetings and give expression to their views upon the subject.—Atlanta True Georgian. “And iftb I’m thtr. 8hoo, fly don’t bodder Tho whole party looked like Gettysburg, and old Tige was jost a waitin’ for old Bock to tree.

They are obliged to fight. Old Bona- parte can’t get out of it, and Pismark has got dun just like Joe Johnston. France wants blood lettin’ like we bad—” “Is that fur off?” *ais I; “I tbot it wu to begin in Atlanty to-nite-” “Oh, no," says he, and went on, I got some comfort from my old friend, Bov. Thornton. He said that if they did get up fight, the old soldier* wouldn’t be into it much, exccp the general*, for that tbs original, con- tisient Union men, like Josh Hill and Dunning, and Tom Saffold and old-man Stewart, and Ackerman would make abort work of it. He said they were mity slow men to got mad, and it lad taken ’em about ten year* to get to the Idlin’ -pint, but that such fitin’ as they would do now tho world nor the flesh nor the devil never e*w. He said I would whip a thousand and put ten thousand to flight. I hope so. like a man who takes ton years to get mad. Your* truly, BnxAw. P.S. 1 heard several fellers talkin’ about 9 dolkra, and the offices, and a man told me waa the matter with Hannah. Mr. Editur, who is Hannah, and what is the matter with her ? Lope she ain't dangerous. B. A. N.B. I am not satisfied there won’t be a fight here. Po you think there’s any truth in the ro- port that Josh Hfll, Saffold & Co., are goto'to Prussia? A man said when it took a man ten years to get mad, ho was bound to fight some thing or take a- spontaneous combustion. Another View of the War Is presented in tbe following extract from a sermon preached by Dr. Boynton. Chaplain of tho United States Senate, on, Sunday last: “This war concerns the three great re ligious divisions of Christendom—the Greek Church, with Russia at its .head ; the Romish or Latin Church, of w hich the Pope is the spiritual and France the military head, and the Protestant Church, of which Prussia is the European conti nental leader, and the United States on this continent, while England, governed at present by no great idea, religious or otherwise; isready to fallow where her interests may lead.” After heaping unmeasured abuse upon the heads of the Popes, from Peter down to Pius IX., the Reverend Doctor of Di vinity and Politics proceeds: “Coming down to our own time and the operations of Louis Napoleon, we must remember that both in Germany and in the United States a great Protest ant power has sprung up, thus bringing into the field a new foe both to the Pa id to the despotism of thrones.—■ and the Papacy behold an oppo nent in the new Greek Church of Russia and imperialism, and the Romish Church see a power equally feared in tbe United States. . Since Louis Napoleon’s attack on Russia, then on Austria, then on Mexi co, the position of Europe has been un expectedly changed. Prussia has sprang up into a first class Protestant power as the head of Germany; the supremacy of the Latin race and of the Romish Church is threatened in Europe, and France, urged On by her Jesuits, has made war upon Prussia for the very same reason that she attacked Russia and Mexico, to conquor Europe, and she would, if pos sible, for France and the Papacy. This is the real significance oi thowar.'V n they’ll go. B.A. A Southern editor, in answer to a correspond- u to the meaning of the word “Pleblad- say«—“Hobiacitun means-well, ifa the Itfor “Shoo fly donthodder me!" might reasonably lie regarded as thor oughly unclean and irredeemable. If she be joined to her idols, we will let her alone. Of New York and New Jersey doubts. Grant’s brilliant strategy in the Murphy business ensures both these States to the Conservatives anyhow and beyond a peradventure. A gain of seven or eight members of Congress iu the dis tricts where Fenton is potential, may be expected in November, in New York.— Fenton was originally a Democrat, and being now a candidate for the Presiden cy, he must soon begin to marshal liis forces at home, to keep Coukling in check in Oneida and to hold Tom Murphy and bis myrmidons at hay in that city and in Long Island. Indiana shows symptoms of throwing off the Radical collar. Ohio is so manipulated by Delano and his tribe of tax-gatherers, that it is bard' ly possible to tell what is to become of her : bnt if Pennsylvania caves in, Ohio will follow with a rush. From tho above statement, compiled from reliable data, it wonld appear that the Radicals are about to be defeated next fall in many States now held by their party. Cincinnati Enquirer says: So many feeble brains are exerting them selves just now to detect and point ont the inaccuracies of editorial articles oa the subject of the European war, that we thought it a good idea *o set a fool-catch- the other day. This we did by speak- g of the French Emperor as the grand - u of the first Napoleon, instead of, as is customary, the n ‘pliew. We knew somebody would jump at it as on exhi bition of very astounding ignorance.— And now comes the aophomorical person On Monday night at a late hour Officer Kaufman, armed with tho necessary war rant, arrested and lodged in jail a negro school teacher, named Isaiah Blocker, who is engaged as tho teacher of ft school for colored persons on the corner of Jeff erson and Little Jones street who is al- ledged to have committed an outrage up on one of his scholars, a girl of thirteen years old, named Sarah Burnett—Sar. Jietcs. Another Revels.—Alexander Clark, negro, is candidate for the United States Senate from Arkansas. He has recently been stumping the State for Clayton for Governor, for which service and liis fluenco with tho black voters, he receives three thousand dollar* in greenbacks, and ft promise of the Senatorial term. It is that Alexander is a superior of Clay ton, and can make a better political speech than any white Radical in' the State. : i ' Every Aided Bodied Man in the Prus sian Army. .

Pabis, July 30.—The Journal Official, this morning, published Count Benedtt- planation of the secret treaty af- It is well known that Count Yon Bisbarck made France an offer bofli be fore and after the war with Austria. The substance of this offer was that France should take Belgium as compensation for the aggrandizement of Prussia. The Emperor, in all cases, declined the proposition. The very moment tho trea ty of Prague was concluded, JJismarek again betrayed his desire to restore tho equilibrium^ and make proposals for combinations affecting the integrity of States bordering on France. Daring one of these conversations Count Von Bismarck dictated to Count Benedetti this secret treaty project, which has just been made public, and which Count Yon Bismarck has kept ever since. This accounts for the handwriting of Beneditti, who gave notice of the con tents of the proposed treaty to the Em peror's Government fit that time; but the proposition was promptly rejected. Ben editti adds that the King of Prussia w not favorable to Count Yon Bismarel plans. To-day the Emperor assumed eomman- dersbip * in chief of tho army.

Rowell Sc Co., of New York, is one of the most extensive, reliable and intel ligent in the United States, and is far better than any other on the subject of advertising. In the Advertiser’s Gazette, for July,“published by this firm, we find the following just and true sentiment, which should have much weight with ad vertisers : “ The less frequently a publication is issued the more thoroughly it is likely to be read. A daily paper is glanced at or kept before its reader for an hour or two, ;ind when a day old is generally consid ered valueless. A weekly paper is kept about the house much longer, is more generally read by all the members of the family, is more reliable and much more generally preserved as a record of missing events, or for tho scorns, etc., which it contains. ” ' D uly papers are but seldom seen the country, while weekly papers find thei>- way into every nook and oorner of the land, and especially is this agricultural districts; and they are usually kept on file, after being read, for future eferencc. The merchant who wishes to obtain an interior patronage should not ignore these important facts. Who Bets ?—George W. Gibbons, No. 6 Clinton place, New York, says: ‘I will wager $10,000 that Emperor Napoleon will be in the city of Berlin in ninety days, dictating terms to that old despot, King William.
