THE FCTl'EE OF GEORGIA. The lelegragh and Messenger say*:— When the “ October .-un” of the 2nd instant sank behind the old hills of Georgia, it gilded their tops with the mellow radiance of a glorious promise for the future. It saw four years of honest and responsible government se cured to the people of this State, (white and black) because it will be a govern ment by the tax-payers of the State, through their representatives, all act ing under bond to give us a good gov ernment—all elected by men intelli gent enough to detect injustice, abuse or waste, and under the strongest mo tives to prevent them. The property of a country is a pledge to maintain order, public jus tice and private security. Popular disturbance is its bane. It seeks first of all things the public tranquility, and this cannot lx? maintained on any other basis than impartial justice, sound public economy—light and equal burthens, and universal security to the people. This indispensable security for good government, the negroes and the few white fuglemen who' use, under the pretence of leading them, could not give, if they would do it. Their administration of the government of Georgia would have been without any guaranty. It could not have been car ried on without excitinsr the most sct- The Savannah Republican says: of. Bedouins Towards the close of our civil war, gion. somebody said for General Grant (he never had the wit to say it himself), that the Confederacy was “ robbing the cradle and the grave to find sol diers.” To recruit his army of ballot- box stuffers, in making the election after the pattern of the late Emperor Napoleon, (whose footsteps he is fol lowing into exile we trust)—General Grant’s marshals are now recruiting voters from the New York jail birds, who own the sway of Jimmy O’Brien. It is positively stated in the New York journals thnt one thousand of these have been sent to Philadelphia, to “ vote early and vote often”—and it is to lx? hoped they may find their way out of one penitentiary iuto an other. “ Uncle Tom’s Cabin* has al so been invaded by the Grant Ku- Klux, who have been sending them into Indiana and Pennsylvania in droves of one hundred and less, to the infinite disgust of all decent men every where, exposing the poor creatures to the pains and penalties of the law. This new slave dealing, which seeks to sell the soul as well os the body of the poor lreedman, whose ignorance makes him an easy dupe, or whose necessities tempt him to accept the bribe, is the meanest and vilest thing these pretand- ed protectors and friends of the liber ated slave have yet done. It finds a lower depth than even the carpet-bag rascalities; for it comes from a higher source—that fountain of bitter waters —the Administration. Simon Came ron, the right had man, and last depen dence of Grant—a man expelled from the U. S. Senate for corrupt practice», is the active administrator of this new negro traffic in Pennsylvania; and Morton of the U. S. Senate is their negro-driver in Indiana. That such villainies should be openly perpetrated by United States Senators, with Presi dential encouragement, and that tire election may hinge on such vile frauds, proves how low the public morals of our people have sunk under the tlrree- year’s rule of a military despot, who, in the language of his present friend, General Butler, “ has neither head 1 nor heart.” But this is not all. Not satisfied with robbing the slums of New York of their jail-bijds, and the alleys of Washington, Baltimore, and other Southern cities of their idle negroes— to swell the vote—the Administration goes to procure a ehareeter for its can didate in Pennsylvania—where? To the penitentiary! whence Yerkes, the convict, is taken out and pardoned, that he may perjure himself by recant ing his previous charges against Hat- raft. What then must be the moral ulcer ation of a party, which gets its “ re peaters” from the scum of other States —and has to get a character from the penitentiary!!! * given, but is still a hard rood to travel in consequence of the swarms who infest that re- GFORGIA ITEMS, in Dalilonega for The Springfield Republican says the Conneticut River Railroad Company tied mistrust on the part of the tax- j 3 a bo U t introducing for trial, a set of payers, and it would have sunk into the mere public squander of Bullock as a stone sinks in water. When, last Tuesday, it was settled that the white tax-payers of Georgia should retaiu control of this State four years longer, doubtless tlio negroes re ceived it as bad news, whereas, on the contrary, it was really the best news to them they could have heard in re spect to the election. It secured to them the same public order and per sonal protection it secured to the whites, while it practically delivered then, from the rapacity of the white and yellow rascals who delude and plunder them. But it did much more than that.— The whites, assured of sound and hon est government, will feel a new confi dence to invest money in building, manufi-cturing, farming and the like, and this, in time, will call for large expenditures in labor. Thus, although the negroes did not and do not know it, when Gov. Smith was re-elected last Wednesday, the colored man’s earnings by lalmr in the next four years were largely increased. We. hesitate not to say that, on the other baud, the election of Dawson Walker, with the assumption of the Clews Bonds, and the rc-inauguration of Bullock’s extravagance, would have opened such a terrible prospect of ex cessive taxation in Georgia, that pri vate enterprise would have been re pressed. The people would have de sired rather to hide their possessions away from taxation in intangible ns- set", than tv have placed them in the nstontAtiati? shops of buildings and open business operations which afford employment to the working man. Thus, although many of tho negroes deplore tho triumph of Governor Kmith, as a had thing for them, it was the best tiling for them which could liavo happened; They will see all their rights and interests protected just as completely as those of the whites. They will see the enterprise and Industry of the State gain new confidence mul activity, and find that when business is active then is the timo when they can get better prices and make more money. Tho interests of til#* whites and the negroes of Geor gia are not antagonistic—-not even di- vorse. They are the same—they run in the «une channel; and those arc most detestable demagogues who prac tice on tho fears of the negroes by tell ing them that the election ofGovernor Smith is a bad thing for them. It is a good thing for them, and so will they find it in the next four years. paper car wheels under the forward trucks of one of its engines. These wheels have been known to car build ers for some time, but the demand for them has been moderate on account of their cast, notwithstanding the univer sally-admitted fact that they are safe and easy' going. The wheels are man ufactured by bringing a pressure of 350 tons upon sheets of common straw paper, which forces them into a com pact mass, which is then turned per fectly round and the hub forced into a hole in the centre, this requiring a pressure of twenty-five tons weight.— The tire is of steel and has a one-quar ter inch bevel upon its inner edge, thus allowing the paper felling to be forced in, 250 tons’ pressure being re tired in the process. Two iron plates, one upon each side of the paper are bolted together, which prevents the possibility of the fillings coming out— The tire vests upon the paper only and partakes of its elasticity in consequence. Although theso wheels are much more expensive than those in common use; the patentee claims that they are cheap er in the end, as they ware longer, in jure the track less, and run with less noise than the wheels of any other pattern. Jf.iiusaleji.—Jerusalem canuot lie truthfully described as an enterprising city at the present time. Its chief na tive industries are the manufacture of soap, which is not largely consumed by the resident population, and of what is called Jerusalem ware, consisting of chaplets, crucifixes, beads, crosses, and the like, made principally of mother- of-pearltfiid olive wood, and sold to tho pilgrims who annually resort to the Holy City to the number of 6,000 or 8,000, It also e.\pou s olive oil and grain, The population of Jerusalem is estimated at 18,000, of whom about 8,000 are Mehometans, 8,000 to 9,000 Jews, and the rest Christians of vari- ous denominations. The employment of the people is almost wholly agricul turnl and pastoral, bat the vast and fertile plains around the city are only partially tilled, owing to the want pf protection against the predatory ex cursions of the Bedouin tribes inhab iting tbe outskirts of the district. A little cotton of an inferior quality— raised from natives seed—is growing and exported to Marseilles. The American Colony whieh was estab lished at Jappo, has been starved eat, and replaced by a band of Ger mans numbering 200 souls. The road to Jordan has been repaired at the cost of a lady whose name is not " Intimidation.”—From the sub joined paragraphs from the Atlanta Heald it seems they played out at Atlanta that “ little ga me” of “ inti midation,” etc,, which was not “ faded on” here: Arrests for Violating the Enforcement Law.—Some half dor en or more persons were arrested on yesterday, under the advice and coun sel of Henry P. Farrow, State Dis trict Attorney, under warrants issued by United States Commissioner John L. Conley, upon the affidavits of several colored persons. Arrests.—The colored troops flock ed around the United States Court room yesterday morning, and “ ray boys,” under the advice and counsel of Mr. H. P. Farrow, United States District Attorney, swore out several warrants for the arrest of parties for interfering with their sovereign rights of voting. Sid. Holland, John Mor ton, J. M. C! Brazelton, J. B. Bal. linger, Barney Lee, George Simpson, Emmet Morris, Wm. Morris, Samuel Wells and Charles Hurt were arrested during the day and taken before Com missioner Conley to answer. They were paroled until Monday. THE ELECTIONS. Washington, October 9.—Special dispatches are discouraging to the Lib erals. Ohio has almost certainly, and Indiana probably, gone against them. The wires have been crowded with de tails bearing upon the nominal results. The Congressional gains and losses are: Ohio—Hamilton county, Liberals gain two. Indiana—Niblack and Voorhees defeated. Little attention has been paid to Congressmen. Pennsylvania. New York, October 9.—The special dispatches received in this city indicate the majority for Hnrtranft at from fif teen to twenty-five thousand. Oliio. Cincinnati, October 9.—Returns from all but one precinct of the First District are in. Sayler (Democrat) has 3,974 majority over Eggleston. For the short term, in the same district, Dodds (Democrat) has 2,367 majority over Taft. In the Second District— all but two precincts head from—Ban ning (Liberal) has 1,490 majority over Hayes. Wiley, (Democrat and* Lib eral) for Secretary ot Ssate, has 5,720 majority over M ikoff. His majority will be about 5,600 when all the re turns are in. Clark county, complete—Republican majority, 1,297 ; Preble county, com plete—Republican majority, * 440.— Thirty-five additional towns and two counties, complete, give 2,385 Repub lican majority for Wikoff. A special to the Gazette from India napolis says one hundred and seventy- one townships give a net Republican gain of 1,723. Columuts, O., Octolier 9.—The State Republican t’ommitte claim that they have carried Ohio by from fifteen thousand to eighteen thousand. The Democratic Committee concede it by between ten thousand and fifteen thou sand. The Republican Committee also claim that they have elected twelve Congressmen certainly, with more than a fair probability of two additional.— This gives the Democrats seven Con gressmen, a gain of two in Hamilton county. The Democrats do not con cede the sixth and tenth districts. Indiana. Special dispatches report the defeat of Voorhees by a considerable majority. The Republicans claim the State for Governor by 2,500, and the Demo crats are confident of Hendricks’ elec tion by a small majority. Frost in Dalilonega for several nights. Several beavers have ken trapped on Alcora river this week; A successful Baptist Union meeting is going on in Dahloneg*. The Rev. Blakely Smith, Presiding Elder of the Americus District is dead. The 1st. day of October frost ap peared in Rome. • Akerman spoke a piece in Griffin on Monday. The colored men of Floyd county have organized a fire conpany. The libel case of H.P. Farrow vs. W. W. Rhodes has ljeen continued until next Saturday. A horse in Bartow county knocked over a bee-hive the other day and was stung to death by the bees. The Dawson Fair will open on the 29th of October. The Greene County Fair will open on the 9th of October. A. G. Wimpey’s stables in Dahlone- ga was struck by lightning not long since. Damage slight. There was another kerosene lamp explosion in Macon owfclonday night —damage trilling. D. E. Evans of Gainesville has lost about five thousand dollars by the burning of his photograph gallery. Joe Brown paid into the State Treasury, September 30th, $25,000, rental for Western & Atlantic Rail road. The jynount of cotton brought to the Atlanta market since the 1st of September has quadrupled that re ceived for the same period of last year Colonel Hardeman delivered a star ring speech Monday night. The hall was crowded, and the enthusiasm wai real and merited. John A. Wimpey is the. gayest galoot out of jail. He is now board ing at the calaboose in Atjauta for forging pension receipts. Cedar Ridge Post Office has been established at Maddox’s Mill, Whit field county, and Judge J. A. Mad dox appointed Postmaster. Spalding county Teachers’ Associa tion met in Griffin on Saturday. Hon. J. G. Orr, State School Com missioner, was invited to address the association October 19th. A suspicious Democrat in Atlanta on Wednesday marked the colored voters by sticking fish-hooks in their coats. He caught two of them relat ing and straightway they were bundled off to jail. The Great Eastern show presented complimentary tickets to the ministers I of the various religious denominotions j in Albany. But it was “ no go.” One minister remarked, that “thedevil is as impudent as lie is vile.” Rev. John W.

Of course he would. He never de clines anything, and even the dirty, frowsy war shirt of a big Sioux Indian is welcome. If he cannot wear it him self, it will, at least, make an excellent covering this winter for those bull pups. Catch him refusing anything so useful So many denials have been made re garding the accuracy of previous state ments as to the beauty and cost of the President’s stable in this city, it NORTHEAST GEORGIAS (FORMERLY SOUTHERN BANNER,) “ As Goes Georgia so Goes the South.”—And north. The excitement and enthusiasm created at the North by our victory last Wednesday surpass our expecta tions. It has inspired our friends with new hope and confidence, and promises to to lie the turning point of the Presidential campaign. It would be a proud thing for Georgia to feel, that she more than any other State, had led to the liberation of the South aud the country, from the yoke of the corrupt despotism which has crushed both for the last few years. Yet from the tone of the Northern press, it as though—such raigh be the case. The negros of Washington county, belonging to thedifferoet Baptist Chur ches were organized into an Associa- ion, on Saturday 28th ultimo, by el ecting the following officers : Rev. Daniel Palmer, colored Moderator; Rev. Corday Harris, colored, Treas urer, and J. M. G. Medlock, white, Clerk. The Georgian says there was a dense crowd of negroes in town on both days—Saturday and Sunday, at church, by way of making the Associa tion interesting and keeping up the spirit of the times, a brown saint by the name of Jack Smith fired a pistol at another black saiut by the name of Clayton Taylor and wounded in the hand another black friend, brother and saint by the name of Boston Hairydine. The injunction case of the Western Union Telegraph Company and the Southwestern Railroad vs. the South ern and Atlantic Telegraph Company will come up before the Supreme Court at a very early day—probably during the present week. The first foreign shipment of cotton from Savannah this season was made on Saturday, five days earlier than the first shipment last year. The American ship Screamer, Captain Enoch F. Hall, was cleared for Aavre by Messrs. Wilder & Fullnrton, with a cargo consisting of 3,903 bales up land cotton, weighing 1,878,850 pounds, and valued at $345,535 95. A man will die for want of air in five minutes, for want of sleep in ten days, for want of water in a week, lor want of food at varying intervals, de pending on constitution, habits of life, and the circumstances of the occasion. Instances have been given where per sons have been said to live many weeks without eating a particle of food ; but when opportunities have been offered for a fair investigation of .the case, it has been invariably found that a weak and wicked fraud has been at the bot tom of it. And now It has been proved that Robert Fulton did not invent the steamboat. Of course we are not surprised. Wc arc used tc this sort of thing. Nobody ever did the things attributed to him. Shakspeare, ac» cording to some learned moderns, did not write any of bis plays, and Howe borrowed tho sewing-machine, and Morse stole tbe telegraph, and Wash ington never out a ohery-tree down in bis life. So it goes, and a budred years hence somebody will prove that Mr. Greeley never edited the Tribune or wore a white hat, or ran for tbe presidency'. The Red Whig (Minn.) Republican says: “ A picnic party was lately as sembled on the banks of the Zumbro river, in Hyde Park, Wabash county, when a large rattlesnake was discover ed near by. One of ihe party picked up his violin, saying that he had heard that music would charm a snake, and began playing, when, to tho astonish ment of all, another came out of the rocks and coiled up, listening to the music. This was immediately follow ed by another, until nine had appeared, noue of whom were in the least dis turbed by the people preseut, but all quietly assumed the attitudo of con tented auditors. At the conclusion of the concert the rattlesnakes were kill ed." A funny scene took place at the White House upon the presentation of the delegation of the Teton-Sioux to thePresident. The Washington “Star” vouches for the truth of the emliarrass- ing little iucideut. Medicine Bear, chief of the Teton-Siouz, opened the “ big talk” with a speech very similar to the one he recently delivered before the Secretary of the Interior; but before doing so, laid his huge calumet on the mantel-piece, and after removing his proper to say that Supervising Archi tect Mullctt, in his last annual report, substantially admitted all the facts stated by the Liberal newspapers, and admitted that the stable was built without authority of Congress, with money appropriated for another dis tinctive purpose, and wholly in viola tion of law, and that its cost, exclusive of site, which already' belonged to the government, was over $27,000. It is learned from the builder of the stable that the President was fully informed upon the matter, and indicated to the architect the number of stalls which he should require for his horses. There is not in tills city' more than half a dozen private houses which equal this stable in point of architectural beauty and cost. The following ieu iTesprit, given by the reporter of the Macon Telegraph, is rather rich. In giving the proceed ings of the Radical convention, held in that city on Wednesday, which nomi nated Lemuel B. Andrews for Con gress, from the Sixth district, and when the convention had finished the business that brought it together, the reporter says: The convention then adjourned, sine die, notwithstanding the lion. Mary Curry, who rose to “ de pintob order,” and wanted to know “ if de people ob de State of Bibb was represented in de motion, and who was sine die and how ? He had never learned of that candi date before.” Shakspeare has successively had to sustain the character of a schoolmaster, lawyer, soldier, sailor, farmer, sur geon, and a dozen other trades and professions, and has been proved satis factorily to the minds of several writers to have been well versed in alchemy, botany', music, and all the ologies. But it has remained for Mr. Blades, the eminent Caxtonian, to prove that Shakespeare was one of his own craft—a printer. In the volume just issued by Messrs. Trubner it is cloaily shown that Shakspeare, when he first arrived in London, called upon his fellow-townsman, Field, who had married the daughter of Vantrollier, a printer, and had succeeded him in his business. Here, then, Shakspeare, as press reader or as a shopman, or as both, remained for four years, and be came master of the terms “ reprints,” ‘title-pages,” “preface,” “ typo,” ‘nonpareil,” “ broadside,” “ locking- up,” “ register,” and “ printer’s devil,” all of which are to be found in his works. A terrible murder and suicide occur red on Thursday night at New Y’ork avenue, Jersey City Heights. A German named Michael Ghering, known hv the police as a vicious char acter, and keeper of a boarding-house, was at cons'ant warfare with his wife. On the alarm being given, the police proceeded to the house, and found that Ghering lmd killed his wife by blows on the head and stabs, and afterward cut his own throat with a butcher- knife, almost severing the head from the body. At the time of the murder there were six hoarders in the house. The deceased had four children—three sons and a daughter. Two were married, and the others lived at home. Though there were several poisons in the house when the tragedy occurred, it was not witnessed by any one. It is supposed that Ghering went into the kitchen after cutting his own throat, as a large pool of blood was found there. He wss found lying in the same room with his wife, with his feet under the table and his throat cut from ear to car. Published at Jlthens, Georgia EVERY FRIDAY, BY T. W. Sc T. L.

The British government is hunting up claims against the United States for damages to the property of British subjects, during the war, to set off the award of Geneva Tribunal. David Massey*, convicted of mailing indecent books, is fined five hundred dollars and sent to prison one year.

The Wheeling Register says West Virginia will give ten thousand majori ty for the Greeley electoral ticket. The striking brick-layers sent men to other cities to prevent workmen from coming, and resolved not to work for any contractor who refuses to sign an agreement to pay four dollars for eight hours. The Liberals of Indiana have suc ceeded in winning out of the negroes that went from Kentucky what their intentions ware by arusc, and thus put a bar against from three to five thous and illegal votes.

A St. Louis paper tells a good dog story’, as follows : “ A small darkey, with an armful of eight-days old pups, accosted a gentleman on Pine street, a few days ago, with the query, “ Want any pups dis morning ?” “ What are they, Greeley or Grant pups ?” At a venture, the young fancier responded, “ Grant!” “ Don’t want ’em.” A day or two later, the boy made smother attempt, and was asked the same question, to which he replied “ Greeley pups.” “ Why, you little rascal, "didn’t you ofc ,i,e JJJgJJf Jg JJJg JQ SU6SG8JSE!

The King of Abyssinia’s ap peal.—King Johannez of Abyssinia has sent a communication to the Brit ish Government, praying for aid against Egypt, which power is alleged to contemplate an invasion of the kingdom. The Egyptian Government, however, it will be remembered, pro tests that it has no intention of invad- sng Abyssinia, but masses troops on the border for self-protection. As it was once asserted in Parliament that the British war with Abyssinia grew out ot the inability of the Foreign Office to read a letter from that power, let us hope that brauch of the British service has since secured a competent translator.

It appears, from recent information, that Stanley’s reported discoveries in regard to Dr. Livingston, are likely to be verrified after all. Whole columns of the New York Sun, Herald and other papers have been devoted to a controversy touching the genuineness of his reports. Few of their readers, wc opine, are much concerned about it. Men of scientific tastes and pursuits may find interest in topographical researches and ex plorations in Africa, but the masses of our people are, just now, too much ab sorbed with matters upon our own con tinent to feel any groat degree of inter est in tho controversy.

But they could not think it possible he would have been so badly beaten. In sporting parlance he is no where in the race.
