At the date of this article the fnto of
tho Convention still remains in doubt —
Tho decided mnjoiity in favor of tho

vannah, however, end the full vote in
tho counties where tho (|Ucslion was
contested both pro and con, tho latter
counting as no many ayes, render it
highly prohablo tliut lliu decision has
been made in tho afliimbtoe. £ven if
tho reverse happens, tho pust fully dem
onstrates tlml (iuu. Pope with tlio aid
of his tool Ifnlliert, tun adjust tho vo
ting and result to his own liking. Mr.
Johnson will not intervene, so wo rimy
say the Convention is n fixed fact.
We favored this part, and this only of
the radical plan of reconstruction, be
cause wo believed that Southern intelli
gence and capitul could infiuoi.ee and
rule tho horde of somi-harbariuus who
wore admitted to the polls. When it
hec.nrio apparent that tho whites would
not attempt to do so, and hod abandon
ed the field to renegades nnd negroes,
fidelity to the soil we lovo so well, im
pelled us to uso every effort to suppress
the assemblage of a body, which would
bo composed almost entirely of ufricans
and the riff raff and scum of society.
Nor do wo call in (juoation tho mo
tives and patriotism of that portion of
tlio press, who advocated tho policy of
tuking no part iu tho election. As be
fore asserted, tlio act of registration and
tho voto upon ratification will amount
to acquiescence at least in the military
bi I, and wo were tliorefhro for taking
tlio ball by tlio horns, mid quashing the
whole abomination lit the very tli esh-
hold.
The result in Terrell county, whore
tlio whites bestirred themselves bo efieet-
uni ly, us, oven to overcome tlio heavy
black majority against them, and tlio
number ol deluded negroes who sought
to recoil their ballots when they per
ceived that radicalism was aiitugonialiu
to their bread nnd Inittur, make it per
fectly ovident that wo wore correct in
our conclusions. But for our own lo
cheat nnd culpable indifference, a major
ity of tho first men iu Goorgiu, coiiijmis-
od of tried warriors nnd /talesmen,
might have swayed tho Convention, nnd
from the very battery nnd standpoint
oreotod by tlio radieuls themselves, hurl
ed shot ami shell into the midst of their
uutnp.
'This course, conjoined with a liberal
Constitution modelled U|X)ii tho plan of
some Northern State, would have elec
trifiod tho Conservatives of tho Union,
and completely annihilated the iip|K)si-
lion in tho Presidential campaign.
But tho peoplo have decided other
wise ; and it only remains for us to ral
ly our forces, bury a thousand futhoms
deep all feuds and diftereneos which can
divide tho country, nnd urgo every An
glo Saxon and whlto Inhabitant of the
Statu to resolve IheniHelvus into o grand
army of observation, and note (lie action
of tbo blank and gray, ring streaked nnd
speckled mar plot*, who shall assemble
in Milledgcvillo to do tho bidding of
their masters.
Thanks to the unintentional flaw in
tho schoino of subjugation, which re coin
milt the work of the Convention to the
people, for thoir sanction nnd approval,
if that bo ly in tho face of tho doom
which ImngH suspended like the sword
of Dnmoolca over tlio Rump Congress,
will obey iO« cruel mandates, and thus
enslave nml degndo the white freemen
of Coorgin, at tho ballot box may the
vile programme still bo dclented. At
present wo have only to remain watch
ful nnd quiet, nnd organize thoroughly
for tho final struggle.
True, tho reign of despotism will con-
tinuo for n while iongor, but ns State af
ter State at tho North whoels into line
nnd presents a lorriod front to radical
tyranny, the courage of the five satrap
’ill ooze out at thoir fingers end*, and
tho vouom of their stings bo rendered
powerless. Visions of future accounta
bility mny oven now haunt tho repouo
of their couches.

clay feet of the monster radicalism will

lupiAi'llMSNT.— riio coitcs|mindent of
tho New York Times writes :
"Impeachment is gathering no
strength. Msmbors of Congress appear
in little knots in Search nf winter quar
tet*, und they are eagerly sounded on
thin subject. From all that (fan lie
learned, they stand ns they did ut tho
(iIoho of tlio Inst session. In tho New

converts to impeachment, und a leading
member of llio Htfimte, now here, said,
yesterday, that from all ho could learn,
he did not Itoliovo there were half a
dozen changes in the House on tho sub
ject, and be knutv of imnu at all iu the
Senate. Thu New York election will
unquestionably have touch effect on the
subject, and if the State is lost or car
ried by the Republicans by u clone vote,
that will bo the last of tho impeachment.
Only if Now York is eurriod by a
majority which Republicans dare not
hoj o for, will tho impeachment seati

What is repudiation? It is the eor
rupt, despotic, and reckless oxpendi'
turcs, by tlio Kadicul Congress, in
schemes for the reputation of their pow- |
cr, nnd for preventing tho restoration of
tlio Union. It is not the interest of tho
public debt that so strains tlio credit of
the Government, and necessitates op
pressive taxation. It is not tho public
debt alone which puruly/.-* i idustry and
production at homo, and tarnishes the
credit of even Government securities
abroad. It is tho fact Unit tho Govern
ment is iu the hands of a party which
can only retain power by a system of
corrupt and excessive taxation, through
HUpjMirtirig expensive military establish
ments, and by the exclusion of tbo sta
ple producing States from the Union,
und by thus repressing our commerce
und nuvigulioo und productive power.
Our cotton trade no longer reaches
the trade of tho world, aid while dc-
cliucing tlill Dnthcr, through tho inter-
ferc.icc of tho Rudicul autlioriti s with
tlio labor of tho freedmeii, this Radical
CongrcsH imposes a discriminating tax
upon tho production o! tlio article; but
il should, ut Homo time, or iu some incus-
uro cotno again in competition with tlio
supply from tlio Fast Indian and other
foreign sources.
Tho Radical Congress has destroyed
our navigation and ship building, and
given what reminod of our f reign com
merce to the maritime nations of Europe.
But if Wo have ships, we have nothing
for them to carry ; for Congress is deter
mined that tbo productive power of the
Southern States shall not be allowed to
revive. Congress expends, diruoly and
indirectly, hundreds of millions a year,
wrung from the peoplo by taxation, to
create n new political power in tho SoutJi
—the powero of tbo lately emancipated
slaves, us the governing power of the
South, and also as tlio power by tbo aid
of which it can exercise despotic rule
over tho N'oith.
Tho Radical Congress thus heap* up
on tho country un increasing load oidobt,
for thoir very system cannot bo sustain
ed except l.y decreasing our means to
pay interest on the debt. They are
obliged, for tbo purpose of thoir party,
to loproM tlio energies of tlio Sonin, and
render it n barren wasto, nnd fit only for
the inhabitation of ignorant, idle, nnd
semi barbarimm communities of now ly
emancipated blacks.
What encouragement is tlms afforded
for the belief that this Government can
retain the confidence of any intelligent
people in tho world 7 Who can place
reliance on the national faith of a coun
try which is tli us governed ? Wind
wonder it is that our publicvecniiueH,td-
icndy below those of any other country
in tho world, ore failing in price nbiond 7
it ennnot bo doubted,either,that the Rad
icals nt the coming session will, by their
course of action, bring tho country to
tho very brink of revolution and run.—
The Hudicnl* nro tho n pudiafora. The
Radical policy is repudiation.
The people of the Northern R idieal
•Statesjustify nnd adopt revolution, an
archy, and repudiation when they again
endorse and accept Radical rule. If
no glimmering ol retming reason on
(lie part of tho jK'opIo of the North cun
bo discovered at tho coming election,
repudiation, now treated as a mere bug
bear, ivil titnro us in the face
t'ongro.-s will no doubt pursue tbo
repudiation truck tbo coming session,
by destroying the revenue through a
false, fraudulent, nnd oppressive mode
of taxation, and also by increasing tho
expenditures, in tiro desperate effort to
reduce tho w hites of the Smitll to the
condition of slaves to the negro Radi-
cul power established over it. That will
insure pratioal repudiation, tho effects
of which will lie felt abroad and at
homo, in tho discredit of rcpulificnu laith
and representative government.
The country is able to pay its debt,
just us sure as it is able, at once, to re
sumo it/ former condition of prespeiity,
power, pence, and union. Let tho Rad
icals give us hack our Union. Lot tnem
restore our commerce, and free agricul

Total Vots on tiir Mlkctmn — Augiu-
la, Nov 4.—From the election returns
received at the Headquarters at Atlan
ta, it is estimated that 105,000 votes
have been cast on the question of Uon-
vonlinn, oat of 180,000 registered. Tho
official count can only show u majority
in favor of tliu Convention, ns opposition
candidates were only nominated in tho
Northern part of the State, where the
whites nre largely in tlio majority. In
other portions of tho State the Cousei vn
lives look no part in tho election. The
cnndidntcn favoring n Contention have
been all elected by large major.ties.

received indicate a majority for Conven

Tho regular Radical nominees arc el

Tiif. Cotton Tax.—It may be regard
ed as a settled fact that the coming Con
gross will abolish the cotton tax, or re
duce it to the merest fraction. Even
the St. Louis Democrat, tho most rabid,
unreasonable nnd unreasoning of Radi
cal journals, is in favor of its abolition.
11 says:
Wo trust it will not bo long before
ibis wholly unw ise tax may be removed.
To tax the productive industry of the
country is equally suicidal, whether tiio
particular production in question Imp-
pens to l o raise by men of one political
opinion or another.
Connecticut.—Three fourths of the
towns in Connecticut had their town
elections last week. Tho democrats

Forney’s Lies.
"The whole rebel prem, organized by!
Andrew Johnson, from Richmond to
New Orleans, has unmasked its deadliest
batteries. Tho Union Men, while nnd
black, are no longer persuaded, but
threatened.’’
Aftei telling the above falsehood by
way of preface, Forney gives the follow
ing infamous letter from Detroit. "Li
ars ought to have good memories."—
Forney forgets tiinl Breckinridge is iu
Europe, und that Toombs is in Georgia
and bus been here for months.
Mr. Editor ! It lias come to my
knowledge, from n perfectly credible
source, that tho rebel chiefs mi (Junada
Jefferson Davis, Jacob Thompson.
Toombs, breckenHdge, hhd others, have
not yet giVen tip thoir hopes or their
plots for Houthi’tti independence. My
informant is an American, resident in
Canada daring the last fifteen years —
lio has recently conversed very freely
wilb T<m ml* nnd Thompson at Toronto.
They tell him they nre in Canada for the
double put pose of selecting lands for
tho colonization of their friends, who will
emigrate from the Bouthern States in
caso nogro suffrage shall he established
there by Congress, and of keeping watch
on tlio frontier for any outbreak or dis
till banco in tlio United .‘Rates that shall
give them a cl nncu to break up tlio Gov
ernment and establish a Southern Con
federacy* Theso men seem to have
plenty of money. A few days ago one
of tin in (Breckimidgc, 1 think) received
a donation from a brother rebel of ten
thousand dollars, because hu was said to
be poor. This was doubtless out of the
gold fund sent to Thompson by the reb
el Government during the wor to ena
ble him to liumcli bis raids upon iih from
Canada. J. M Mason, now ut Toronto,
is especially bitter nguinst Congress, nnd
vows uli sorts of vengenneo amj destruc
tion m cure his pompon* self is not ul-
lowcd to return to Virginia Jefferson
l).ivi» is huving a fine residence limit for
him at Toronto, doubtless out of tho
sumo fund—a fund pilfered from South
ern bunks during the rebellion."
Alining nml Drilling.
Tbo following, copied from the Liber
ty (Miss.) Herald, is matter for grave
consideration :
It ia a well established fact that in

ings for the purpose of drilling (o be
come accustomed to tho uso of firearms,
and at all <-f these meetings, there are
more or less speeches made, all of which

“In reply to n resolution of tho House
of Representatives, says the Washing

of War for tho number of prisoners of
either side held, mid that died daring
the war, he makes tho following ro|>ort:
Number of Union prisoners South, 201,-
000 ; number of Confederate prisoners
North, 200 000 ) number of tiflioa pris
oners died, 22,570 ; number of Confed
erate prisoners died, 20,535. Out of
201,000 Union prisoners, 22,u00 died.
Tlio Union piisoiicp* exceeded I lie Con
federate prisoners 01,000 ; yet tho deaths
of the Union prisoners fell below those
of Confederate prisoners 0,000. Two
Yankee prisoners died out of every
twouty-threo in Southern pen*. Two
Confederate prisoners died out of every
