We publish on our iii.st page, details ■ of tilt! outrage* Committed in one day by the lilaclc luutrs in the neighborhood of Savannah. The day Mowing warrants wore issued for the arrest of iv number of the outlaws, and platted in the hands ol of the Sheriff of Chatham county. With a small jwsvt that official repaired to the , plantations and * succeeded in "raking several arrests, and marched the! priso ners to station N0.,1 dn the Ooli Road, for the purpose ol taking „the train atj that point and carrying them to Savan* nah. lime tho Sheriff was met by j. j f/SriThf sever at hundred negroes, well j armed, who not only released the prrso ! llC rs, hut robbed the officers of tiro law j of all property on their persons; and also j informed them that no legal process should ho served iu their (tho negroes ) nurghhorhood— that they had a govern ment of their own, and were determiner to protect themselves. On the next, day (the Ist limt.) tho sheriff summoned a larger posse, and again repaired to No. 1 with warrants for the arrest of one hun dred and fifty of tho Insurrectionary ne groes but he found the om.-my intrenched ami in too largo force to make an attack upon them. lie therefore returned to the city, orni called a meeting of tho citizens for conKnUutinn. Tin; iußiimotion.'ivy orgJVOkation, vvd n'i-e ffifi'irrijed by tho itcpMuan, numbers from eight inimhed to a thousand—per haps evch greater rind all are thorough ly armed and provided with ammunition They have officers of every grade, and mean* of iiiterc Tiunujni jntiou tlmf are aJlDOat rqoM to the facilities of a regular signal coups. At this writing the negroes ore con stantJy receiving recruits from neighbor jug counties, arid forcing into their ser vice those who uro disposed to behave themselves They openly declare that their purpose is warfare, and havo bold ly cast down.the gauntlet to the whites. Wo know not what preparations are making in Savannah for the suppression of this outbreak; hut indications are that the people of that oily are disposal to avoid bloodshed, and will exhaust all peaceful moons for tho restoration of or der. This may- l>o tho truo policy but at this distance from tho scene of the troubles, it is generally believed that a permanent peace, respect for law nnd good order, will be secured only by the bhpdding of blood. Perhaps our Savannah friends aro afraid of the effect which any action of thoir’s will have upon reconstruction. Perhaps they think that ignorant, bru talized negroes can he controlled by nior al suasion! M 0-r-ri-l S-u-n-s i-o u ! ! 1— Whistle off a pack of fierce hungry hounds raging in full view of their quar ry; chain the tiger in his native jungles with chaincs nvido Os the flowers of the lottis tree; speak in dulset tones to the maniac who stands with deadly weapon poised above your head ; loro off the (tender, as with urucl beak he rends his p < y among the gorges of tho ico bound Andes; do this, and all these things and thou talk of controlling negroes by mor al suasion ! '-Who would fie free ! Themselves must strikatlie blow. . If» few hundred negroes are to control the great city of Savannah; if tho citi zens fear tho consequences, let them send their Sheriff with proper authority, for a fiotue of “Wire Grass Boys,” and* then we ll do tho rest 1 I. Since penning tho nbove, wo sec by the Savannah News of the 4th, that four companies of United States troops have been ordered to the Ogee - choc. They have not been ordered a moment too soon. Grave, oven deadly conse quences t» tho whole negro race of the South, might have grown out of this re hellion; tho torch of civil war if once ligh ted who is to quench it. bet St. Domin go, let Hayti, let the fairest islands of tho West ladies, answer, that it can only la qm nelied in blood ! J. ns be calm, but earnest; let us do n .thing rashly, bet the South belongs to ! the WHITE MAN, and it shall bche g to him, or, be made a desert and a howl ing wilderness. Arkausfis Outrages. The put rag s committed by- the nc.ro | and Radical piilitiv of Irkatisas, are sickening in the extreme, and call loud. y for vengeance upon the head* of the in- : human funds. Whole communities are , broken up business of every character suspended, and every conceivable out rage committed on dofene. Vss wetr.cn. In otic case six brutal negroes tied the husband and gratified their fiendish pcs sions by committiug an outtage too sbockiiig to mention, on tire person ol his wife, in his own presence. Ue K« Gonstrwticn. Man is u political tmker. liver t-inci Locke wrote his f.tiuomi Constitution for ■ the Carolina*, in which philosophical profundity contended with political ig- 1 norane’e, we have had great abundance [ of political tinkers. Unlike the Great Tinker, John Bun | yan, they do not even deal in allegories, l but keep hammering away at Constitu lions, laws, and reconstruction, as if their political salvation depended upon ; (lie noise, funs, and hollow reverberations : of their old political kettles—only a lit tle less hollow and brassy than their own empty heads. Sancho I’anza, Vhen he had governed J tho island of Barrataria for a few flays, ! laid down tho ensigns of government J without a sigh, only too happy to es cape from a charge in which he hud dis played singular wisdom and moderation, and in which ho hud been almost starv ed to death ! Our legislators, unlike the immortal j Sancbo, are not starved; no, not they ; I they are clothed in purple and fine linen, “like tho Itllios of tho field, they toil not neither do they spin,” but they swagger 1 around in hundred dollar overcoats, and drink unlimited quantities of forty rod : rifle whisky, and Jersey Champagne. To the thoughtful student of flintory, these men arc surely and swiftly follow- , ing in the footsteps of tho leaders of the French Revolution. While the Guillotine was streaming,! day after day, with the best blond of (Franco; while want arid misery j and gaunt despair | talked like avenging j deities through the length and breadth j ol the land ; while Iho very foundations of ad society were overturned ; and vice was crowned with flowers; and virtue clothed in rags, these leaders of the French Revolution were steeped to the lips in the most shameless debauchery, and daily consorted, openly and boldly, with robbers, harfots'and thieves. Shame on such men ! They arc a li~ j bel on tlib good and true men, North ! •and South. With the low cunning of; Galoban, with his boundless sensuality, they unite tho unbridled ferocity of Rob- i espiore, Dan ton and Nero. Greed, cunning, lust, hate, avarice, and all the avenging furies of the Heath on mythology, arc let loose upon our de voted land. 0 for a Jackson ! 0 'for one pure stern earnest man of the better days of tho Republic 1 0 for a Crom well, who, with hand encased in steel, would seize these monsters in human shape, and band them ovci to fhc ten der mercies of tho laws which they have so long wilfully outraged, and which, like an avenging Nemesis, though pale claitdo, will orio day surely overtake them ! If wo have written strongly, wo h’.ive felt strongly. No words, no mere words, were they written in letters of living fire j could ever convey the utter loathing, con tempt and abhorence which wo feel for j modern legislators. Latest from t!ie Ogecchce. Thu insurrectionary negroes on the Ogeecheo plantations, it appears, are disposed to succumb to the authorities, since the arrival of the military. On the 4th inat., fourteen of them surrendered! to tho military at the U. S. Barracks in Savannah, They were turned over to tliceivil authorities, and confined in tho Chatham county jail, under the follow ing charges against each: 1. Robbery ol J. F. Tucker ; 2 Robbery of J. \f. Mid ijeton ; 3. Robbery of Emann if Mendel, Deputy Sheriff; 5. Assault with intent to murder the watchman on the South field and Prairie plantations; (I, Assault with intent to murder Richard Winn; 7 Assault with intent to murder Redding Baxley; 8. Rescue of prisoners and res isting the Sheriff while in the discharge of his official duty; 9, Combined insuiv rection and rebellion against the lawful authorities of tho State of Georgia. The total number of warrants thus far issued amounts to thirteen hundred arid fifty. The military will see that they are all served. The war on tho Ogcocln e . ?a now doubtless at an end ; blit-, lmw long will it bo before another outbreak 'occurs ? ‘ Permanent peace and order, we are of opinion, can only bo secured by blood letting. The Bankrupt Lav. During the last days of 1,863, appli - cations for the benefits »f the Paukni; 1 Act, poured into Jhc clerk’s cilice at Fa vannah, and the office" was kept open rv a-, jtil 11 o’clock ott the night oftlioolst. so : as to give all who desired it qfi opportu nity to get rid of their debts.

S H-y A New York paper is afraid tho I ladies “will soon monopolize one half the : murder business of the country, which is now so active.” lias Woman a Sou! I A fellow in Cincinnati, Ohio, lias pub lished a pamphlet, in which he attempts . to prove, by the Scriptures, that a wn j man has no soul—that she was not de- I signed in, nor was sho part of the crea tion. That tnan is the biggest fool the sun ever shone upon, nnd lie is entitled | to a premium for ignorance and outra ’ ! gcoiia slander. Woman is the best and . fairest of creation, and if either sex is l devoid of soul, it certainly is man. In I fact, we do know men, whom we have, I at times, deemed soulless; but never yet have wo found a woman, no matter | what her position or station in life, who did not, at times, give evidence of God like virtue, truth and charity. She bless-, es earth, is a ministering angel on the rugged road of life, and will adorn the highest station in the unexplored regions of futurity. Without her creation would j have been a Failure, earlh a blank, and I Heaven would lose i(s charms if douriv-; j ed of her presence. ! The purchase by the Central and South | western Railroad Companies of $1,200,- i 000 stock in the Atlantic and Gulf R nul i from tho city of Savannah, creates con siderable excitement throughout the as the objects of the purchase. | The Augusta Chronicle .says llmt “one I jof the fruits of .this mammoth railroad | speculation,”- v-as developed in a meet i ing held in Favaunali a few days ago, : between ! , President iff the S uithwes ; by which a mw freight tariff for these »• he.oil -d, ran r: -g fr ■ i throe .to six ht: mired per cent, higher than prc«- i “Cotton, which the Central and *ont!i-' j western roads carry now from Columbus ; ! to Savannah at 20 cents per hundred, is j rated iu the new schedule at $1 35 per; : hundred. From Eufaula the present rate !of 30 cents is raised to $1 SO. From j Bainbridge tho present rate of $1 per j t ale is raised to $5 per bale. The tariff of freights from other p ■ nls on these j | roads are raised Curresp .mdh.g'y high.” ; A False llfpoit. Gan. S'ipr.jiuii, in liis *pnech at the army gathering in Chicago last month, j iCddiT.'.nitg his comrades, is reported t>»' have said: “That same flag we have fol lowed so often in the glare of the scorch j ing sun, hy the moon’s pale beams, and by the light of. the blazing torch.” A i cotemporary thinks this report incorrect' —that the Geneial never made sneir a blunder, lie thinks it ought to read :j “By the glare of burning Soothern homes : by the pale embers of consumed South- i tin towns ami vilieges, and by the light of blazing Southern cities.” . THE GEORGIA ASSEMBLY. A tel- rram informs ns that it is gen orally understood in Atlanta, that when ! the Legislature meets on the 13th inst., i it will pass resulutiniis, declaring that in its former action it was governed by an unbiased construction of the reconstrue- ' tion acts of CuiigieKs, and the new con-j Stitution of the State ; and that it was not its purpose to deprive the negto ot - any political right he had justly acqujx j cal, by either declaring further willing ness to abide by the decision of the So preme Court of the State or the T’riited 1 States upon the point at inujq.
