No one who reads it can have the slightest doubt .lint, the President is its author. It begin® bv asserting that under Prov idence lie lias been again elected. De clares his belief in a universal Ilepub- lie, and his convictions that we are to have a universal language. Speaks of the rights of the emancipated negro, whom lie says must he admitted to schools. And when he travels his “conduct will regulate the fares and treatment he will receive.” lie has nothing to say of I.is tyrannical rule over the (South. We place the docu ment before our readers. Let them judge for themselves. FBOFILF OF THE TORT ROYAL If.R. BY I AFTIX W. AY. TIIOUAS. We were shown yesterday evening a splendidly executed profile of the Port Royal Railroad, from this city to Steel Creek, tS. C. The drawing is the work of C’apt. W. W. Thomas, Civil Engi neer in charge of the Augusta Division of the Port Rfiynl Railroad, and is the most perfect affair of its kind that ha® ever fallen under our observation. It presents not only the line of the road and distances, hut also shows the natural surface of the ground over which the road passes, the excavations and embankments necessitated by this conformation, the different sections of. the road and the cost of the construc tion of each section, and at each change of the grade, miniature flags are mark ed showing the point of beginning of each change, with figures denoting the number of feet per mile of the rise or fall of the grade. The bridge across the Savannah River, is very neatly sketched on the profile, nnd the accompanying figures show that its total length is 84.> feet; the cost of its construction being, for masonry, 8.'>0,031 07, nnd the super structure, 828,027 27. The structure is a How Truss Bridge, having ft draw bridge of. 200 feet, nnd is placed 35 feet above low water mark. The trestle work of the road as shown by C’apt. Thomas’ profile-drawing, consisfs on the Georgia side of 2,000 fe^t, and on the South Carolina ride of 1,000 feet, making in nil with the bridge, three- fourths of a inilo super-structure of the finest order. Captain Thomas, the engineer in charge of this division of the read, and the draughtsman of this most credita ble drawing, isa graduate in the Degree of Civil Engineer from the University of Georgia, and has won for himself an enviable reputation in his profession, ciiuee March of 1872 he lias been in charge of the Augusta division of the road, hut has most particularly devoted his attention to the construction of the bridge and trestle work. We learn that Cuptain Thomas lias accepted the office of local agent of the road at this point, and our congratulations are ex tended to the Management of the com pany for the fortunate selection they have made.—Constitutiomlst, Sth inst. “Order Reigns in Warsaw " The news from New Orleans must, be entirely satisfactory to our military rulers. The disturbance that has fol- General Gordon passed through Augusta Sunday, cn route for Wash ington, to take his seat in the Senate. Hon. Alford Iverson, of Macon, is dead. lie represented Georgia in the United States Senate for several terms. “Sir, it fatugues the indignation,” was Robert Toombs reply to one who asked him about reconstruction. Allen G. Jones, the missing hook keeper of the Southern Bank of Geor gia. is a defaulter to tho amount of 830,000. Judge Erskine’s petit jury, in the U. S.

Some very had boys of Augusta have defaced the walls of Houghton Institute, in a very vulgar way, with coal tar. A man was shot to death in his own house and in the presence of his family in Gordon county on Saturday night last by a drunken mob. Savannah is to have a paper mill company with a capital of8100,000. It |s to manufacture paper of grass grown ;n Florida. A negro woman nursed her child while smoking, wjapep it in quilts and went to her work. The child was roasted. It happened near Macon. The Carroll County Times of the 28th, mentions several cases of small pox in that county, and states that no new cases had occurred in ten days. In Wilkes county large tracts of laud sold at three dollars per acre. Twenty shares of stock in Georgia Railroad Company, ninety-five dollars per share. A Hincsvillc negro drove a team of oxen into a wasps’ nest the other day. One of the oxen died, and the intelli gent contraband himself is somewhat afflicted. Mr. James B. Stafford, of Dalton, returned to Mercer University in Ma con, on Tuesday, and on Friday he was attacked with menigitis and died that night Mercer University has resumed its exercises, with‘good promise for the future. The Telegraph says that with about ten exceptions the former pu pils have all returned, and new ones are coming in. An anithological curiosity is on ex hibition at Ed. Hink’.s in Macon. It is a rilvcr-spangled Roland rooster, weighing eighteen jxiiinds and sport ing ten toes on each foot. Thcjlown freight train on the W. it A. R. R. was thrown from the track two miles above Marietta, on the 6th, by a brokeu rail. Several cars were smashed, killing several horses and mules. to 1 00 to 50 iftCii. From all accounts, the average Co lumbus girl is not averse to taking unto herself a mate. A voting man from the country visited Columbus recently, wn3 introduced to a girl after supper and the twain were made one before l:ed-time. A Carroll county man, aged sixty, got on the cars for* the first time the other day. He enjoyed it very much, and when the train stopped, he smiled sweetly and asked, “ Has she lit yet?” The Hon. Alford Iverson, cx-Scn- ator of Georgia in the Congress of the United (States, died at his residence in George WUliam Curtis, ed Hnl^or’9 WetdHy, 1s seriously typhoid fever. Senator Cokling will contest with Senator Morton for the leadership of the new Senate. A young Irish girl in Jackonville, Illinois, has refused 8100 for her hair.

(Several of the West Point cadets had their faces and .feet badly frosted during the parade at Washington on the 4tli instant.

A complimentary reception will be given Oakes Ames by his fellow citi zens of North Eastoi, Mass., on Thur v day evening next. Families continue to fly from Spain in large numbers. A vessel crowded with refugees has arrived at Port Ycndres. The ashes of Bulwer Lytton rest near those of John Talbot, the great Earl ofShrewsburv, who fought against Joan of Arc. A report is current that the great powers of Europe have resolved to postpone recognition of the Spanish Re public for tho present. Why is a pretty, well-made, fash ionable girl like a thrifty house keeper? Because sho will make a great bustle about a very small waist. The Senate of Alabama is * again Democratic—the vacancy caused by the death of Gilmer, Radical, Little, Democrat, was elected to fill by 370 majority.

About two hundred noted New York pick-pockets went to Wash in;, ton to.attend the inauguration and ply their trade. They have returned roblied and disgusted, from contract witli those* Credit Mobilier gentle men. The St. Louis Democrat says : “ Diaries and memorandum hooks aie among tlic obscene lxioks suppressed by Congress.” Colfax will rejoice thereat. But the ghost of Ames’ mem orandum book will haunt him throueh life. The General Assembly of Virginia has appointed a special committee of five to investigate the charges of mis management against the Ladies’ Mount Vernon Association. The charge is unauthorized speculation upon visitors o the tomb of Washington. The leading journal at the City of Mexico says the outbreaks along the frontier, between Texas and Mexico, are due to the prevalence of the an nexation fever. Our Democratic friends who have consoled themselves with the hope that Grant’s second term will Ire less parti- zan than the first, because, you know, lie will have no temptations to prosti tute his power in iiitrignes for re-clcc- tion, will see, with some disappoint- it that his candidacy for a third term is already openly admitted.
