Wo publish to-day the la\T recently enacted, establishing a County Court.— This law will effect a very material change in the judicinry system of the, State, and every citizen may hod it largely to his ‘advantage to .study caro- fully its provisions. A Judge and Solicitor for this Court is to be elected on.the first Wednesday in May. Those firs*, elected to continue in office until January, 1870, and tho elections to be at the expiration of ev ery four yeais thereafter. These are important offices, and the people must see to it that they are filled by worthy men, who are fully qualified for tho responsible and important du ties that will devolve upon them. It is not quito. certain that a man is fitted for an office merely because he desires it, and yet it is useless to elect a person who wont serve. Improved Kail Facilities. Arrangements havoboeu made so as to get the Chatanooga mail twenty-four hours earlier than previously, and it Is hoped that the same will be effected for the one from Atlanta. This is ac complished by the Postmasters of thoso places sending the Romo mail on the night train. The eararaunity ought to know that this arrangement could not have been made unless the obliging conduotor of the Romo Railroad, Mr. C A. Smith, had consented to receive the, mail every night at about midnight, at Kingston. Thus it seems that through tho prompt energy of our Fostmustor, and the obliging kindness of others, we will get our mails one day earlier than hereto fore. , The Rome railroad lias not, up to Ibis time, received a single dollar for carrying the mail, - and there Is no certainty that they will got anything The community is under ten thousand obligations to tliis company for render ing this important servioo—and wo hope that, ere long, they will boab'oto get full compensation for the work don. Tits Seceet Motives.—In a letter to a meeting of conservativo citizens of St. Louis, the lion. Edward Bates sub jects the vetoed Freedmcn’s Bureau bill to a merciless analysis, in which lio expresses wjth unmistakable distinct ness tho ulterior re volution (fry object of the proposed statute, nud denounces with appropriate but logical severity the dangerous subterfuge of its contri vers, wliioh was countoaacted by the prompt and bold interposition of the President. Mr. Bates also denounces the authors of the bill, and says that the secret motive which induced them to hasten such a measure upon the country, was to subvert the constitu tional form of Government. In con cluding li is letter, Mr. Bates remarks thus: I think it a fortunato thing for the country, that tho Radical fuution is so demented as to pick a quarrel with the President because he rolvses to be their instrument to overturn the Constitu tion ana substitute in its place a mili tary despotism, and to stake their po litical fortunes upon the monstrous vi ces and follies of tho Trumbull bill. For, in doing so, they do but insure their own defeat, and consequently, the restoration of law order, and peace, and revival of national respect tor lo- f ul government and a national lovo for iberty by law. Even tho emancipated negro, for whose sake it is urotended that this wrong is done, will not long fail to see the hypocrisy and fraud of the transac tion. They will see that wlnlu they uro cajoled with the pretooceof liberty mid equality before the law, this nicked bill subjects them to tho power of military overseers, excludes them from all legal proteolion, denies them the right to appeal to the courts of law for redress of grievances, and requires the agents and officers of the bureau to "take ju risdiction of all cases” which concorn thorn and their interests, ’ tST The Democracy of Pennsylvania in their recent Stale Convention to noniinute a candidate for Governor, adopted the following resolution os a part of their platform of principles: That the States whereof the people were lately in rebellion are integral parts of the Union, and aro entitled to representation in Congress by men duly elected, who bear true faith to the Con stitution and laws, and, in order to vin dicate the maxim that taxation with out representation is tyranny, such rep resentation should bo forthwith admit ted. The Soldiers’ Grave*. Tim following note recoived by yes terday's mail; we lay before our lady readers: . “CoLunuus, Ga., March 13. Mr, Editor^-Aid-us, we beg you, to in augurate this day. ‘We loved Them wliilo living, may we not honor them when doud,’ The within slip expresses our feelings, and by your influence, we. hope to make it a national day, and you will receive tho thanks of ' Tue Ladies or Columbus. Explanatory of the foregoing and ae- coin ponying tho same, was ^ilio -lollotv- ing article which appeared in the col umns of the Enquirer. TOE GRAVES OF THE SOLDIERS Editor Enquirer—-The ladies are now, and have been for several days, engag ed in tho sad but pleasant duty of or namenting and improving that portion of the City ftlemetcry, to the sa-red memory of our gallant Confederate dead; but we feel it an unfinished work unless a day be eet apart anually for its especial attention. Wo cannot raiso monumental sliufts and inscribe there on their many deeds of heroism, but we can koop alive the memory of the debt we owe them by dedicating at least one day in each year to emhellisli- ing their liutnhlo graves with flowers. Therefore, wo beg the assistance of tho press, utid the ladies throughout tlio South, to atd us in our efforts to set apart a certain day to be observed from the Potomac to the Rio Grande, and bo bunded down through time, as a religious custom of the country, to wreuthe tho graves of our martyred dead witli tlowors. (We would propose the 0th of Aptil.ns at that lime our land might be truly called the land of flowers.) liOt overy city, town and village, join ill the pleasant duty. Let all be ullke remembered, from tho he roes of Manassas to those who expired amid tho death throws of our hallowed cause. We’ll crown alike tho honored resting places ot the immortal Jackson, in Virginia, Johnston, of Sltibli, C.o- burne, of Tontiessco, and tho host of gallant privates whoadorned our ranks. All did their duty, und to all wo owe our gratitude. Let tho soldiors graves, for that day at least, ho tho Southern Mecca, to whoso*slirino her soil-owing women, like pilgrims, may nhually bring their gratol'ul hearts und tlorel offerings. And when we remember the thousands who were buried "with their martial cloaks around them,” without chrjs tian ceremony of intermfint for their beloved bodies, wo would invoke the aid of the most thrilling eloquence throughout the land tu inaugurate this custom, by delivering on the appointed dny, this year, an eulogy on the utibu- riod dead of our glorious (Southern a- • my.

WALKER. morZd.I.n.iv.td Secretory. ve ah wl . h< a, th fc How Ihhioration to the Soltu is Prevented.—The Richmond Times says: “The Radical press, English and Ger man, teem with fabricated letters from tbe South detailing atrocities and- out rages perpetrated upon Northern men and emigrants who have Bellied in the Soul hern Stales. The object of these dictions is eurly detected. Emmigiation at tbe North does not accord with the plans of the Radicals and must be pre vented by all means. Southern white people must be made dependent upon the negro for labor und if possible for votes. We regret to have to confess that the efforts to thwart immigration have been but two successful. There are also other agencies besides the press at work to accomplish the same ob ject,” Fire at Aderdeen Mississippi.—A very destructive fire occurred at the above named place a few days since, by which five of the principal business houses were destroyed. It is supposed the fire was the workofan incendiary. On the same night a fire also occurred ,t Artesia, Mississippi, and tho origin Fis also ascribed to the same source. t&* An ex-Confederate of New Or leans, under the influence of too much whisky, on the 13th day of last Febru ary, (Carnival day), cried “Hurruli for tD6 Southern Confederacy,” 1ms bcon sentenced to two years hard labor in Fort Jefferson, Florida. His name is "William Wright, citizen.” The Cattle Pi, oue.—The United States Consul at Liverpool, in his des patches of Feb. 16th, says tho cattle plaguo is now the absorbing topic among the people; that it tills 11 the newspapers, and occupies nearly the whole attention of Parliament. Vuc- cirination as a remedy seenie to be re garded as a total failure, und no pre ventive will be effeotuul, in lb* opin ion uf those who are versed in the mat ter, except to slump it out, which means to kill all the cuttle Diken with it on its first appearance, and compensate the owners for their loss. There is a bill now before Parliament on the subject, which causes a good deal of discussion. Tbo report for the week ending Febru ary lOtli, shows 11,590 new cases. The number attacked since the commence ment of the disease is 143,023, of which 111,100 have died or been killed. France and Mexico.—Tho speech of tho Emperor of France, says nn ex change, was accepted in this country as a sincere expression of bis riesire t > withdraw his troops from Mexico. II, however, instead of withdrawing at once, it should appear that Napoleon is uctually dispatching new forces to Mex ico, it is highly probable that a differ ent interpretation would be placed on his speech by the people of this coun try. T.lie present aspect of tho subject is not at all satisfactory. On the con trary, it is understood in France that tho speech means nothing but a diplo matic expression, designed to quiet American minds. If this provo to bn the case, the reaction hero will bo very strong, tiue people are not accustom ed to diplomacy, gtyd nro very apt to resent any deception practiced on thorn, especially by foreign powers. There is no light’’eeling on Inis rast’er among Amoricans abroad. They seem impros sed with tho conviotion that Louis Na poleon has no intention to remove his troops from this continent, and, on tho contrary, they believe that numerous troops now in Franco are destined’’to reinforce Maximilian. 4®* Tile Holy Sacrament of Bnp- tism was conferred upon Maj. General B. F.

Baling "R” Green Leaf Colton baling Direct Tax on Real Estate.—It is important, suys the Richmond Times, that the owners uf real estate should look to the payment of the United Slates direct tux thereon before the 8tb of April next, or subject themselves to the forfeiture of their properly. The law provides that this tax shall bo paid within sixty days after tho opening of tho offices of collection in any city or county. The tax is twenty seven cents on one hundred dollars’ value, at the assess ment of 1860, which, if not paid prompt ly, is liable loan additional tax of ten per cent. If not paid at the or d ol sixty days, the’property, according to the act of Congress passed iu 1802, isforteited, and will be seized und sold by the Govern ment. lt would ho wise* therefore, for one and i ll to attend to this tax.
