This notorious cx-Govcrnor of Georgia spoke in Newnan last Saturday, and although the election has passed we deem it proper to notice briefly his report'of the day, published in the Era. The man sought to impress the public with the belief that he had five hundred hear er*?;-while the truth is his audience did not exceed- 85 negroeB-' and 13 whites, several of whom Wcrb present through sheen curiosity, and in no way sympathized with Radicalisms As to the game of ball, we have this*to say: Such of our citizens as desired to joined in a game of “town-ball,” believing, as they had a right to, that the exercise and excitement of that sport were far more preferable than any speech the ex-Governor could or would deliver. We know of no law that compels men to re frain from ball-playing because ex-Gov. Brown wishes to or does make a speech on the same day. Neither the ball players nor others beat tin-pans, as charged in the Era. The only noise of that character made that day was that of a “kettle-drum” in the hands of negroes who came to hear Joe Brown speak. We think the ex-Governor rather severe on his friends and admirers, for if their drum did sound like a tin-pan it was not their fault, and it is bad taste-in his ex-Exccllency to thus ridicule them in the public prints. We are rather inclined to the opinion that Joseph was rather peevish over the failure of the blacks to drum up a respectable crowd—in numbers—and will take back ail- he has said about them when he gets cool. The idea of Joe Brown lecturing white peo ple as to the mode and manner of raising chil dren, as he did in the Era, is exceedingly rich. Why, Governor, if you were to tell the youth not to do a certain act, you might- be converted to the other skledn twenty-three miu-nteey as you ware in the case of Bullock, and liar ran gue them in, public to advocate what, youe in pri vate advised them to oppose. Tile truth is, Governor, yonr race has lost confidence in you, and you have nobody to blame but your self. Burial of General Morgan. X.ARISE CROWD IN ATTENDANCE- MONIES. ■IMPOSING CXKSS- that the Abyssian army numbered 7,000 men aTl told ; Brig. Gen. Merewether estimates it, from advices recei* ed from the captive envoy Rassam, at 15,000 men, while the natives bold ly tell us to our faces that all our throats will he cut, as the arm}’ of their dreaded Emperor is ft hundred to one, and an intelligent Greek merchant who has at various times sold En glish muskets to Theodorus, estimates his forces as approximating 100,0C0 infantry, 50,- 000 cavalry and 20,000 tiralleurs. There is a wide difference in the above statements, and neither can he deemed reliuble, from the fact that Theodorus declares he will meet the En glish on the plain, and in the same spirit as that which animated Napoleon at Waterloo; sa}’s he will measure his strength with them. He has six cannon of immense calibre, be sides a dozen twelve-pounders, and I am in clined to believe that he has an arnij* number ing in the aggregate 40,000 men, for Wagshun Gobaye declines to attack him with 40,000 troops; and Meuelek, the King of Slioa, and Walbelt, the Galla Amazon combined, retreat before him with an arm}’ amounting to over sixty thousand, But Napier argues that they retreated solely because Theodorus’ name was enoagli to strike terror, and that as they had not recovered from the dread his very’ name inspired they dared not attack him, and he adds, with an assuring smile, that the English did not as yet>share their apprehension. Gen. Napier *s himself convinced that had not the home government seized the very fa vorable opportunity of making war upon The odorus when the empire was convulsed with civil wars, which rage in every province, that it would have been useless to invade Abyssin ia with an army’ of less than 100,000 men. As it is, the Commander-in-Chief is confi dent of success, and that the English army will be in Zuella with the captives by the first of June next. He is precipitated onward by the Bombay government, who flood him with letters, containing ominous tidings of Russian embassies being sent to the warrior prince of Khiva, of Russian armies being sent to the Deccan, of the King of Ava’s growing hostility to the English—all of which is fraught with portentous meaning to the Anglo-Indian army- now in Abyssinia. In India the officials contrive to cripple the General by refusiog much that lie deems es sential to the success of the mission, in order, t-bey say r , to keep down the expenditure, and still in some instances they coniribute very liberally. But withal, however anxious the British public may become, as they are already committed to the expedition, Napier says it will be for him “ to consider the time and the conditions under which lie will retire consis tently with its special purpose, the deliverance of the captives, the sulety of the force, and the attainment of those other peaceful, scientific and philanthropic ends, which though subor dinate to the main object, are certainly’ not inconsistent with it.” What those ends are I know not, but there is the stateraeut, to be construed how we may. THE PROSPECT AND PRdBABLE RESULT. The Negus Negushe of modern Ethiopia, from the latest news we can glean from his camp, seems determined to prove himself worthy of the royal blood from which he claims descent, and to convince the Euglish, “by the power of God,” that his people, who formerly glimmered in the oral history of the nations of the Orient, who were renowned by Jewish poets and sung by Grecian bards, tho’ the country, by the eternal and boundless deserts which surround it, lias been barred from the rest of the eivilized world, has not degenerated into a race of cowards. If the appearance of the people of Altano does not belie them, metliioks the English government will exert its gigantic powers in vain to com pel Theodorus to disgorge his mountain pris oners of Magdala, Begemder and Woggara.— Such intelligent and sturdy forms as we see daily can hardly contain craven souls Their haughty-', independent bearing illustrates their descent from the powerful nations of Ethiopia, who for centuries established and overthrew mighty kingdoms and originated the arts, learning and refinement of the ancient world. The women, whose lusty forms excite vulgar admiration, handle the warrior’s arms with the ease and dexterity of their lords, while the children,-a'most in their cradles, become prurient fbr the lance and yateghan. Theodorus, finding that it was impossible to mount his big cannon on the walls of Magdala, has taken a strong position between two rivers, near Lake Haik. On all sides his camp is well protected by deep ravines, which cross and re cross each other, so that it will be a matter of some difficulty on a plain devoid of timber to bring the Armstrong guns into a position- to bear on his camp. This plateau on which he is encamped is about two days’ march from Magdala and twelve from Antalo. NYagshum Gr.bazye having heard that the great Theodorus was advancing, who has an incurable propensity for executing traitors in a most horrible manner, has decamped from Lake Ashangi with his army, and invested Debra Tabor, which he wo-uld not have done had Theodorus not Ifefit it with his whole army. In the same manner the bombastic King of Shoa, who had promised liberty to the captives at Magdala, has left the vicinity of his formi dable master, retreating hastily to his country hidden on the mountain tops, in the forests. in the ravines, by the angles and irregularities j e j an( j the Democrats felt sure they of the ground, while the carbines of Ibrahim j n i w- -l- ..u: . „ Pasha and the old arqtiebusses in the hands of j fully ^ Everythin., P' Houston.—In this county, where the negroes have about fifteen hundred ma jority, the Democracy are working like beavers and, we rejoice to say, with a good prospect of carrying the county.— At 12 o’clock 2,700 votes had been poll- j that the country was in great peril Rout had i well concludes : The House ot Ri presen v n-i-' v. *•• •* • • 1 store, lias been down with the rhonn! .

The Snyder-Enfield and rifled breech- loading Armstrong guns will only awaken the echoes of the mountains and frighten the wild beasts, and sometimes before they have time to turn their cannon the English will find themselves face to face with Theodorus’ sol diers, who will fall upon them sword in hand. Civilized people, immersed in the profundity of th<Mr own polities, may be incredulous at the tale of firearms and swords being found in Abyssinia, a semi-bar barons empire ; but when they consider the total absence of those mus kets in Egypt of what are called the Ibraham Pasha muskets, which that prince bought in France, when those were superceded by a later invention ; and again what have become of the latter, replaced by a more recent invention still, they will have reason to suppose that they have been sold to some less civilized power.— These arms may be found in the bands of The odorus’ soldiers. Speculators have also been continually introducing arms into Abyssinia at several points, ami especially at Massomvah.— The companies also, who are working for the restoration of the fallen princes on the coasts of Abyssinia have imported great quantities of arms at different periods. A Grecian merchant was lately commissioned to buy twenty thousand English muskets for Theodorus. Besides, the Ahyssinians, under the intelligent and enterprising Emperor, have acquired considerable skill in the use of fire arms. A Greek of Epirus introduced the man ufacture of gunpowder among them in 1857. THE LIGHT CAVALRY OF THEODORUS is equal to any in the world, both as respects the horses and the agility of the riders. In fighting they throw away the rein, use both hands, and perform wonderful movements by the help of their legs and knees only. They carry a sword and two lances. They can pick up any object at full gallop, and can suddenly disappear under their horse’s belly to avoid a blow. In attacking a square they always try to jump into it. The artillery is no longer what it used to be. Now it consists of formi dable pieces and skilful gunners, mountaineers, armed with guns, celebrated lor the precision of their aim and cool courage. Each corps of Theodorus’ army has its Gen eral, and is governed by a severe discipline and rigorous regulations. Deserters are crucified, and their execution Theodorus superintends himself, as Iris people are donkeys and cannot do anything right. The Emperor has a perfect idea cf centrali zation. He is the first sovereign who offers the spectacle of an empire without a capital.— Having investigated the causes and effects of the late revolution he saw that when the cap ital was taken ali the rest ran the same danger He said to himself, therefore, “ I will have no capital ; my head shall be the empire and my tent the capital.” Hence he is always followed by his ministers and high functionaries. Gondur, though formerly the capital, is now but a large city stripped of the interest which attached to it, and Delna Tabor has dwindled into a petty village, so neither of these places offer any inducements to rebels or invaders, and it is only tor the sake of the prisoners at Magdala that the English army wend their way t • the fortress. To prevent their entering it Theodorus has planted himsc-lf before it and taken position. . , , . . . , Greenwood Cemetry, the fashionable . - - .

England, France, Prussia, Turkey, Italy, and several of the Ger man States were represented, the party being composed of about fifteen gentlemen and four teen ladies. The guns used were donbled- barrelled breech-loaders, and the birds were shot at a rise of twenty-one yards, while the bounds were fixed at eighty yards. The first shot was won by the British Minis ter, Sir Edward Thornton, who brought down three birds successively, as they were let out of the trap by Mr. Albert Woodley, who was trapper for the occasion. He, however, missed the other txvo birds, and, as each gentleman was limited to five shots, he gave place to Mr. Howard, of the British Legation, who also brought down thrae birds. Mr. FreemaD, the second Secretary of the British Legation, prov ed the most successful shot, for he succeeded in bringing down all five of his birds, and thereby won the .first prize. An attache of the French Legation won the second prize. Several very fine shots were made during the day, and twenty-nine bird3 out of sixty fell within the bounds.

Boutwell said that the Chief Magistrate of the principal republic of the world was on trial, and the object of proceeding was not punishment for offenses, but safety of State. The issues between the President and the House of Representatives are tech nical and limited, namely: Whether Johnson violated the Constitution *and laws in removing Stantou and appointing Thomas. Boutwell set? fortV the evils probably following tff& acknowledgment of the President’s power to remove officers at pleasure, arguii^g that the power of Congress maintained sovreignty, and not the people who vested it in Congress j whereas, the executive and judicial are denied all discretionary or implied power. Congress can adapt an administration to the changing condition of the national line ; whereas, the President is governed by the principles which govern a Judge of a Court. The President must admin ister the law as he finds it without quest ioning its legislation or wisdom. The President can make no inquiry regarding its constitutionality. A public officer can neither plead nor prove good motives for nullifying a law. If the President vio lates a law, the Senate can enter into no humor. We were all having a fine time when the Doctor’s little negro, about twelve years old, “ black as midnight without moon,” came grinning into the room. Tom said : “ I am told that you little niggers can butt like billy-goats,” and threw himself down upon all fours for an encounter. The little nigger in stantly took to the same position, butted Tom, and knocked him entirely across the room. We thought Tom, was killed, and he thought so himself j but after a while, he was able to sit up, with only a terri ble headache, that lasted twenty four hours. The Doctor, in his wrath, was about to kill the little nigger, but Tom generously interposed in favor of his con queror, gave him a quarter, and said : “ D—d if I ever have a butting match with a nigger again.” York.
