ZZM.' The Georgia Weekly Telegraph and Journal <fc Messenger. Telegraph and Messenger. MACON, DECEMBER 21, IS6»- ConnreM and Georgia-AVlial Is to be ” * Done ? We copy the following special from Washing ton to Forney’s Frees, of the 9th instant: TmoixiA Aim Gsoroia.—Nothing has yet been 4one, either by the Jndiciary Committee or the Sen ate. or the Reconstruction CommUtee of the House, to whom was referred that portion of tho Presi dent’s message relative to Virginia and Georgia, re garding those subjects. It is probable, however, that they will report favorably on the Viixiniaprop- osition. and postpone action regarding Georgia un til the Legislature of that State meets, ontho sec ond Wednesday in January noxt. Tho courts or the Utter State having decided that the expuUion of the negro members of the Legislature was unconstitu tional, this delay tsUl give the Dnnoerats of the State an opportunity to reinstate them, jrretai to submit to the decision of the courts. In the form er ease no further interference rsannrevs - but if they refuse to reinstate the negroes, Congress will have a valid and undoubted right to interfere, for the purpose of eompelhng obedience totit licdnslruclion acts, nod will do eo by adopt ing the President s suggestion to pass a law antlior- izlng the Governor to reconvcno tho old LcgisU- *°Xhe delegation from tho Virginia Legislature, sent here for tho purpose of urging the immediate admission of the State, had an interview, bv ap pointment, with Gen. Bntler, tho Chairman of the Reconstruction Committee, at five o clock to-day. He informed them that tho Committee would report tmanimonslv in favor of the admission of the State, and that thov will doubtless agree on a bill to that effect at their meeting to morrow. He predicted that the bill will pass the House within an hour after it is presented, and. dismissing tho subject of Vir ginia, stated it to be bis opinion that tho State will be fcdlv represented in Congress within the nest ten -days. Referring to Georgia, he said that tho Repub lican party had been cheated in that State as well as In Tennessee, and that in the latter the negroes are worse off no v ‘han they were ten yoars ago. He alto stated tint the final solution of the Georgia sase will be postponed until after the holidays. As to the fact of tho intended postponement, the well informed correspondent of the Balti more Sun, telegraphing that paper from TV ash- ington the same date, soys: “It is understood tho action by Congress in the case of Georgia will be postponed until af ter the meeting of tho Legislature of that State in January, in order to see what that body will do as to the expulsion of its members about which tho controversy exists.” And to the same effect writes our own corres pondent in a letter published in the last edition Of this paper. On the other hand, our press telegrams of Saturday say a bill to reconstruct Georgia will bo reported this week, and leaves us to infer that it will bo pressed through “without delay,” in accordance with the recommendation of the President’s message. Letters upon this snbject to the Editors of the Telegraph and Messenger, from the highest and most authoritative Democratic sources in Washington, impress our minds very strongly with these ideas. 1. That the Democrats in Congress aro ex tremely solicitous to save tho State of Georgia from another disorganization, and strongly de sire that the Legislature, if permitted to do so, should exhaust, the resources of compromise in the matter of reseating tho colored members. These letters anxiously inquire when the Legis lature will meet and how soon they can dispose of the question. 2. Gov. Bullock, at the head of the destruc tive delegation from Georgia, and backed by the extremists in Congress, is pulling every string to precipitate action before the Legislature can move in the matter. The reseating of the ne-* * - amounts to little or nothing with them. W*® _ -onld leave the question of Demo- Even'fluA > » - Legislature doubtful, and eratic influent* « U»« -- - the it is rendered still more doubtful u, of Gov. Eullock to order new elections in the ease of Radical members of the Legislature . dead or resigned. But a purge under act of Congress, administered at the point of the bay onet by the military, would give them, as they aay, not only the negro seats, but would dis possess, by careful count, (so they say.l a t ) eas t twenty-five to thirty-five o*^ er Democratic 'members, whose plac*-, wonW gene rally be filled by negros. w }, 0 j ia( j the next highest poll. -This give these destructionista entire con trol of everything. The Legislature would be in effect nothing hut a body to register the de crees of Gov. Bullock made in his private ex ecutive office, and would place everything—all the public money—all the offices and all pecu niary and political power, in the hands of the destructionists. It would give them the pick of places from the United States Senate down—it would enable them to help themselves as to money, and divide among tlieir friends—it would consummate the purchase of the Opera House—it would enable them to purge the judi ciary after tlieir fashion, and by getting up and arming a standing militia of negroes, according to the amended Morton bill, they could better control the colored vote, or perhaps by sur rounding a few of the polls with these armed custodians of the public peace, they could pro duce such majorities on demand as were re quired to control politics in Georgia. There is, also, not a municipal corporation in Georgia, which by process of annexation, or come other legislative device, they could not se cure to the loyal Africans. So that every city In the State might be put under surveillance of • negro police; and if this proved too much for the forbearance of tho people, the fact would only show their “rebellious and disloyal spirit,” and bring tho Federal army down upon them os incorrigible rebels. Congress would bo bound to sustain the reconstructed State Government at all hazards. 3. Unless these destruclionisls can secure a reconstruction made by Congress in opposition to the whites of Georgia—in defiance of all their interests and feelings, political, personal and pecuniary—made to dominate over them and aubsidizo the wealth and industrial welfare and resources of Georgia in the interests of the atrocious little white faction of adventurerswho are seeking to monopolize the State—they do not want any reconstruction at all. If Congress will not act in hostility to Georgia, so as by the process to arm these destructionists exclusively with the thunderbolts of its power, and make them the sole depositories of its resources of reward and punishment, they care nothing what Congress may do or refuse to do. In this spirit Gov. Bullock displayed his in. genuity in the attempt to taunt the Legislature at the last session into a violent and acrimoni ous hostility to Congress—in this spirit he ma noeuvred so ns to secure the defeat of the Fif teenth Amendment by withholding the votes of his own party from it—in this spirit he defeated the resolution referring tho negro eligibility question to the courts; and finally, in this spirit, he calls a meeting of the Central Committee of his own party in Atlanta, on the 24th of Novem ber, and fairly crams down their throats an ap peal to Congress to take action at once without waiting.to see what the Legislature would do upon the matter of reseating the negroes, in aoeordance with the decision of the State Judi- oiary upon its appeal. The last thing on earth Gov. Bullock desires to see, is that Congress should wait upon the Georgia Legislature, and the latter conform to the views of Congress and reseat the negroes. The hope, first, is in a snap judgment by Congress upon the people of Georgia, and if that fails, secondly, in defeating all efforts at accommodation. 4. Bat, after all, there is difficulty in the way of the violent and arbitrary course demanded of Congress by the destructives. A good many of tits Republican members distrust these destruc tives and don’t like carpet-bagism in its practi aal results upon Congress and Southern affairs. They are unwilling, too, to upset all State ting Georgia to the Union. Even the New Fork Tribune’s correspondent of the 9th has the fol lowing upon the subject: The case of Georgia, which is just now att trading so much notice, and has been brough* to the attention of Congressmen by several dele- gations from that State, was tahen up and brief- ly considered by the Senate Jndiciary Commit tee, but it is impossible to judge what action will be token. The bills of Senators Morton and Edmunds were also considered. The mat ter will be resumed to-morrow. The Committee is in donbt as to what extent it would bo justi fied in annulling the Legislative action of Geor gia. And to tho same effect is tho following dis patch of the 9th to tho New York Herald: The Georgia Case—Obstacles to Another Reconstruction.—The Senate Jndiciary Com mittee had up the Georgia caseto-day, but came to no conclusion. Tho committee find a good deal of difficulty in tho matter of setting aside tho acts of Legislation which have intervened since the State was formally admitted to Con gress. This would have to be done, it is thought, in carrying out the suggestions of the Presi dent’s message relative to Georgia. Moreover, there is outside clamor and alarm. The business and financial men of the North don’t like this high-handed dealing with a State wheh is contributing so much to Northern trade and national recuperation. They say we aro industrious and pay our debts, and those tales about terrorism and disorder aro contradicted by their own advices, and are wholly inconsis tent with the industrial condition of Georgia, as they know it to be. So that, after all, it is pos sible sufficient time may elapse for tbo Legisla ture to meet and show its hand before Congress comes down on Georgia. Now these are the ideas of the situation of Georgia, in Washington, as we are able to ob tain them from correspondence. These are the ideas of tho danger of Congressional interfer- enco^and its practical results upon the interests of the State, which are current among our friends in that quarter. A review of them will suggest the whole argu ment as to tho course the Legislature of Georgia ought to pursue at once, if they have tho oppor tunity. Some of tho democratic papers in this State aro saying that they prefer Congressional interference rather than that tho Legislature should attempt to conciliate Congress by reseat ing the negro. We have only to consider what must inevitably follow Congressional interfer ence, to be amazed beyond expression at such a preference; but it is one in which the worst enemies of Georgia wiU go with them heart and hand! The case, indeed,lies in a nut-shell. If Geor gia reseats these negroes, (Congress accepting tho act,) Georgia then escapes all the hard con ditions of the pnnitive legislation now proposed and certain to be inflicted in case of onr refu sal. But if Congress reseats these negroes, she does it with the application of the test oath purge —with the annulling of all previous political legislation—with the negro militia bill—and with all the provisions for compelling submission to hostile legislation from an unwilling people. In the one case the people will still hold somo con trol of their State. In tho other, it will be turned over entirely to tho wretched faction who are now trying to pnt it in their pockets. It is impossible that a sensible people should hesitate one moment which of the two alterna tives to choose. It has been urged that if you reseat the ne groes the fifteenth amendment will pass. That is not eo certain ; but if the negroes are not re seated by Georgia the passage of the fifteenth amendment is sure beyond contingency. So, also, is the accomplishment of every ill which TFST TELEQBAPH. CONGRESS ON GEORGIA. The Radicals to Hold off Until the Legislature Meets—A Representa tive Man Needed. Special to the Telegraph and Messenger.] Washington, December 13.—A pretty thorough canvass to-day indicates that Congress will hold off until the Georgia Legislature meets and give it time to reseat tho negroes. If this is done the State will bo let alone; but will bo required to ratify tho Fif teenth Amendment before her admission into the Union. As a matter of precaution, however, it is deemed advisable that a representative man of tho State should visit Washington at once, to defeat the schemes of Bullock, Blodgett & Co., who are urging Congress to immediate action. FROM WASHINGTON. Washington, December 12.—A meeting of physi cians, chemists and jurists, yesterday, adopted a memorial to the Governor of Pennsylvania, asking demoncy for Scbceppo. Tbo Turkish minister has received a dispatch from the Grand Vizier, announcing the definito and satisfactory settlement of tho Egyptian question. Golladay has withdrawn from the Kentucky Sen atorial contest, in favor of Maj. R. 0. Wintersmith, a bill for tho removal of whose disabilities Is now before tho President. It is stated that Stevenson can’t take the oatb. Tho contest is between Mo- Creory and Wintersmith. Washington, December 13.—In a case involving the constitutionality of federal taxation upon the eircnlation of Stato banks, the court decides that notes are taxable. On the point that the tax is ex cessive, tho court declares that it has no power to restrain the taxing power as regards the rate. A canvass of Congress shows that the action to wards Georgia will bo withheld nntil after the meet ing of tho Legislature, when, if the negroes are reseated, the matter will be dropped; otherwise the measures foreshadowed in Carpentor’e bill and Mor ton’s amendment will be enforced. Gov. Bullock urges immediate action. Senator Trumbull, in Committee meeting, op posed the whole movement. He is alone, however. Tbo President withdraws the nomination of Dan iel D. Clarko for Assessor of tho Fourth Georgia District; also, JoneB, Recoiver of Publio Money at New Orleans. Judges Davis and Nelson dissented from the opin ion of tho Conrt declaring tho taxation of Stato bank noteB constitutional. Revenue to-day 8700,000. The Jndiciary Committee will report unfavorably upon the nomination of Yeoman for Circuit Judgo of tbo Sixth District, unless the President with draws him. Tho Stato Department has official information that the United States liavo adopted the Fifteenth Amendment. Butler introduced Farnsworth’s bill in the House of Representatives to-day, admitting Virginia with- out qualification. Paino offered a substitute to tho same effect, but reciting that the State was organ ized under the Reconstruction laws. Butler also introduced a bill declaring the Virginia Constitution Republican in form, with another pre amble that pledges have been given the people of that Stato will support and defend the Constitution of tho United States, and cany out tbo provisions of the Constitution submitted by tbo Reconstruction acts of Congress and ratified by the people of Vir ginia in letter and spirit. Therefore, bo it resolved, that the State of Virginia is entitled to representa tion in tbo Congress of the United States. These several propositions were referred to tho Reconstruction Committee, who meet to-morrow, and ordered to bo printed. ANOTHER GEORGIA BILL IN THE SENATE. Washington, December 13.—In the House Gen. Butler asked the publication of three bills for tbo admission of Virginia, to expedite tho commiteo’s action. To-morrow the first number of bills under regular call includes many for tho removal of disa bilities. Among the bills introduced to-day are the fol- cjn “^ibly apprehended from the reseat!^" lowing; 1 ’*~ * ” To build a Federal Court-house at Raleigh; pro viding for tbo payment of loyal citizens for Quar termaster and Commissary stores, taken by Federal of the negroes by the Legislature, and much more besides. Under these circumstances there ought to be no reasonable doubt of what should be.the demands a pound and safe statesman ship in ‘^' s critical condition of our affairs. Virginia has suffered the ruin of her land, the theft of her private property, the burning of her libraries and her bams, the influx of Welles, Canby, and carpet-baggers generally. The decimation of her sons and the insults to her daughters are to be added to the category of humiliation. Her apotheosis of degredation, however, was attained on Wednesday, when the legislative committee of the State had to bandy with Ben Bntler for his strabismic permission to have the State admitted. This is the historic reveDge which time wreaks on tho Old Dominion for whipping tho man at Big Bethel and dis gracing him at Bermuda Hundreds.— World. This is indeed tho lowest deep. Beyond it there is nothing. It is the jumping off place, sure enough. Ah! how History, which has given the “Old Dominion” such a lustrous page in its annals, will shudder and blush to writ© beside that record this story of her shame! How great must be the trials, how thoroughly broken the spirit, of a peoplo whose chosen leaders are forced to pledge them to such humiliations! There is nothing so sad in all the sad history of onr failure as this forced association and pros- I ation of gentlemen at tho feet of men who have forfeited all claims to that proud title! The results to be achieved, and the objects to troops; resolution endorsing the President's views regarding tbo reciprocity treaty with Canada; reso lution to adjourn from the 22nd to tho 6th of Jan uary. Batter offered a resolution directing the Commit tee on Ways and Means to report a bill taxing in come from interest on federal bonds. Tho Committee on Banking Currency was ordered to report on gold fluctuations. A petition from seventy-two thousand citizens of New York for the recognition of the Cubans as bel ligerents, was referred to the Committee on Foreign Relations. A bill relieving three persons from political dis abilities passed, and goes to the President. During its discussion it was announced that the Reconstruc tion Committee was considering a bill for a general amnesty. The Census bill was resumed, and the House ad journed. Senate.—Mr. Carpenter introduced a joint'reso- lution forbidding the departure of the Spanish gun boats. Kellogg introduced a bill authorizing a navy yard at New Orleans. The Judiciary Committee reported a hill regarding Georgia. It follows the suggestions of tho Presi dent, with the addition that the reconstructed legis lature shall bo provisional, until members ot tho Honso and Benators aro seated. Tho prospects of importance to justify such a “stoop to con quer.” Wo are in a dire strait, ourself, but wo earnestly pray that this cup, at least, may not be pressed to onr lips. Take any shape but that, oh! spirit of conciliation! A Turkish Itcauty. I enjoyed tho pleasure this morning of being Introduced to a very handsome Turkish lady, in order to give mo an opportunity of witness ing a perfect specimen of Oriental beanty. Af ter a good deal of persuation, sho allowed mo to copy her profile. Her eyes and eye-lashes were intensely black, though I suspect tho lat ter were stained of a deeper dyo than tho natu ral one. Her complexion was beautifally fair, with tho slightest lint of carnation suffused over her face. Her lips, sweet lips, that made us sigh even to have seen such. Her glo.ssy hair, which was bound with a kalemkeir, or painted handkerchief, representing a whole parterre of flowerB, fell in loose cnrl3 npon her shoulders and down her back. Sho wore a short black velvet jacket, embroidered with gold lace; trousers of a sky blue silk and under-jacket of pink crape, and one of those beautiful transparent shirts which ravish the behold er and “ half reveal tho charms they fain would hide. ” A most magnificent Persian sliawl encircled her waist, which had nature’s own form, never having been compressed by the cruel bandage of stays. Her feet were in slip pers, and two or three ugly rings deformed her white and slender fingers, the nails of which were died with henna. Around her neck she wore a double row of pearls, from which hung an amulet. Her skin was very white and beau tiful ; the constant use of the dry vapor bath having reduced it to a fineness which I can only compare to highly polished marble, and it looked as glossy and as cold. She was well pleased with the drawing I made, and, on rising to go away, she put on her yellow boots, over the beautiful white foot and ankle, which it was a sin to conceal; then, donning her cashmcck and cloak, she hade us adieu with a grace and elegance which few English ladies could equal. No wonder the Turks sigh for Paradise, when they believe heaven to be peopled with such houris as these.—Auhljo’s Visit to Constanti nople. Longevity in Georgia. — A correspondent writing to us from Blackshear, Ga., says tho Savannah News, under date of November 30th, says: “Mrs. Elizabeth Hearington was bom in Barnwell District, S. C., A. D. 1747, the 12th cf January of said year, and departed this life on tho 20th of November, 18C9, at tho residence of her son-in-law, Wm. G. Riggins, of Pierce county Ga. She enjoyed good health, and walked without any help to within a few days of her death. She lived 122 years, 10 months and 8 days, according to my calculations. 1 ' Railroad Accident nr South Carolina.—A terrible accident occurred a^Lyles' Ford on the Spartanburg and Union Railroad Tuesday morn ing. A Mr. Humphreys was caught betweenthe platform and the train and crashed to death. The family of the unfortunate man were near Legislation and go behind the resolution admit-1 him at the time. They were en route for Texas, Virginia’s admission are brightening, bo compassed, must indeed be of paramount 1 p 0 meroy, with commendatory remarks, presented —*' “ a petition for tho recognition of Cuba. Tho Board of Trade of Mobile petition for money to deepen their harbor. In tbo Georgia bill, in addition to points already telegraphed, the Governor names a day for conven ing the Legislature. The President, upon applica tion of tho Governor, is authorized to employ tho army and navy to enforce tho act. Morton offered as an amendment, making tho adoption of the Fifteenth Amendment conditional to readmission. Drake’s bill, defining and regulating tho jurisdic tion and powers of tho Supreme Court, wasresumed and discussed to adjournment. FROM ALABAMA. Montgomery, December 13.—Tho Senate con sumed tho morning in discussing tho bills allowing negroes equal privileges in railroad cars, steam boats, etc. An amendment was offered to provide equal, but separate accommodations. Boyal, the only colored Senator, favored the amendment, and said tho sensible negroes did not ask social equality, and denounced the bill as a piece of Democracy. Tho postponed Mobilo Car bill was put off. Tho amendment to provide separate accommodations was voted down in tho House. The Judiciary CommUtee was instructed to report a bUI to abolish all lotteries. During tho debate on this bill, bribery was much talked of. Tho Legislature has been in session thirty days, at an expense of over forty thousand dollars, and only eight bills have been sont to the Governor for approval. FROM TEXAS. New Orleans, December 12.—Letters from Gal veston stato that returns had been received from thirteen additional counties, all giving majorities for Hamilton which aggregate 1970—leaving Davis’ ma jority as far as heard from. 7007. Flanagan, Radical, is elected Lieut. Governor by a largo majority. The Legislature is largely Radical. Prarie fires are reported in Northeastern Texas, They started at Red River, extending Southeast and damaging farms and stock. TEXAS F.LECTION—LATEST. New Orleans, December 18.—A Houston special says: Returns from eighty-seven counties have been received. Hamilton’s majority in forty-five counties is 8,970. Davis’ majority in forty-two counties is 12,322. Davis is 8,572 ahead and forty counties to hear from, which registered, whites 10, 450, and colored 9,233. Davis leads tho colored reg istered vote one-Bixth, and the Legislature now stands—Conservative, Senate, 13—House, 41. Radi cal, Senate, 12—House, 34. Tho entire Radical Stato ticket, except Governor, is elected. Hamilton’s friends claim his election by two thou sand. t <- ’ Armstrong and Conners, Conservatives, are be lieved to be elected to Congress. [From “EditorialBailway Notes” taken by the editor of Moore’s Rural New Yorker, dur ing his recent visit to the Georgia Stato Fair, we exhract the following:] The Southern Young Man.—We wander among and watch these young men of the South with the purpose of forming some estimate of their future, and ef the future of the country whose destinies they are likely, to a greater or less extent, to control. There are many intelli gent, thoughtful, purpose-marked faces among them. But there is apparent in the carriage of the majority of them too great self-conscious ness. There is rarely seen either the abstrac tion of introspection or of thoughtful observa tion. Courteous and frank when addressed, they are at the same time self-important and often oppressive in their formal civility. There is the evidence, in the movements of the ma jority, of a lack of that clear-cut, prompt, ready adaptation to circumstances and ability to con trol them which characterize the young men of tho Northwest particularly. But there are, wo are informed, many young men of the South who aro doing worthy work in their own behalf, and who enter their fields with the traditional and inherited idea that to labor, with the hands, is to destroy casto, crucified. May their number increase! And may tho young men of tho South learn not only that it is not dishonor able to labor, but that the honors and dignities whioh may result from tho peaceful pursuits of agriculture will bo found quito as satisfying and enduring as those which may be won at tourna ments, in political wrangles, or in tho profes sions. Another thing should be learned: Re spect for other people’s opinions. Intolerance is always an index of weakness. The right of a man to his own opinions and to act, within tho law, as he chooses, is one which no man nor class of men have any right to deny him. And any proscription, because of tho exorcise of such right is both woak and foolish, and unworthy the manhood and self respect of men who claim tho right to have opinions of their own. Tho Sonth suffers to-day because of this intolerance on the part of its men and women; and sho will, and ought to, continue to suffer. Anti-Immigration.—Speaking of proscription reminds us that there are different kinds of it. Ono of the worst sort for the future of tho South is that embodied in tho opinions and person of Mr. David Dickson, of this State, if he is cor rectly reported. Mr. Dickson is a man of much influence. Ho is natnrally ambitions to retain it. This ambition is not unworthy, provided it regards the rights and prosperity of others. But Mr. Dickson does not want immigration to Georgia. His is tho dog-in-the-manger policy. Ho wants Southern men to build up Georgia— to control hor products and manufacture her staples. This is not wrong, bnt will they and can they do it ? And after all, what does it matter whether it is Southern, Northern, East ern, Western or European men who invest capi tal and labor in Southern lands and manufac tures? Is not ours a common country? And does not tho prosperity of one contribute directly or indirectly to tho welfare of all ? Mr. Dick son has been quoted lurgely in the South as a progressive planter; but if his ideas upon this subject of immigration aro to obtain influence and affect the action of tho people of Georgia, his value to tho State as a prophet and exem plar is vastly overrated. Does Mr. Dickson fear the practical forco and practical ideas of North ern men in competition with his own ! There is little use to attempt to disguise tho fact that there are many men of influence in this State who fully sympathize with Mr. Dickson in this respect; but it is also true that there is a largo, and wo trust largor, class who earnestly desire the immigration of practical working men from any quarter whatever. And this latter olass of men will, wo hope, control and direst tho futnro of Georgia in ultra-distinction to the Dickson class. The Labor Question—Tho labor question is tho great ono here. There has been already improvement since the war, wo aro told, but stifl cotton is wasting by thousands of bales be cause there is no ono to pick it. Tho whites agree that tho colored peoplo aro tho best la borers ; but they cannot keep them steadily nt work. As soon a3 they have earned a little money they relapso into idleness to spend it.— Such is their idea of the privileges and pleasures of freedom. Co-operation seems to bo tho surest way to get a crop harvested—that is, where the bands aro given a share of the crop for their labor in planting, cultivating and har vesting it. This share varies from one-third to one-half. Att men do not deal honestly with tho freedmen, whether they hire them or share the crop with them. This is to bo expected.— All men aro not honest and just; and tho com plaints made are not against Southern more than Northern planters; indeed wo were in formed by a Southern gentleman that the freed men novor made a second contract with a North ern man. “Why?” wo asked. “Because ho requires too much work of theme gets them out too early in tho morning, and does not give them as liberal rations.. In the cotton region it kills the negro to go into tho cotton field before eight o’clock in the morning. [This is a new idea to us. Field laborers thronghout the South aro in the habit of being at their work before sunrise, and this is univer sally expected and required of them.—Editors Telegraph and Messenger.] It does not harm him so much to work late at night; but no man can live exposed to tho damp, chill morning air.” “Aro tho freedmen purchasing lands and cul tivating them ?” “In somo cases—perhaps ono per cent.—they aro. But by contract labor they lay up little money. Where there is honesty in dealing out rations on tho part of tho masters, those who cultivate land on shares lay up money. In some cases clubs of them havo joined in tho purchaso of plantations on forced sale and di vided tho proporty pro rata. . Not long sinco in Alabama a large and fine plantation was so pur chased by a combination of freedmen, much to the annoyance of somo of their old masterswho oppose their owning proporty.” ‘ ; Onco possessors of land, do they cultivate it with diligence?” „ ,, “Somo of them show considerable enterprise; others fail for want of capital. Thoy simply cultivate such of it as they can with their own hands.” Tho great demand is for labor. Coolie labor is to bo tried. Bnt what these men of the South need to do to make their present labor resources available is to go to work themselves. Such ex amples of industry as they may sot boforo tho freedmen aro what aro most needed by both whites and black. Break down this old proju- dice againt labor and there will be plenty of available help for tho cotton planters. Let tho indolent understand that planters aro independ ent of them, becauso they can and will work themselves if necessary, and there will bo loss fault found with tho shiftlessness of the blacks. Those who talk against ahiftlessness should not themselves bo shiftless. Grasses for tlic Clay Lauds. From the Rural Carolinian.] Mr. Editor: A few days since, while I was in Charlotte, N. C., I met a friend of your Maga zine. Until then my attention had never been called to The Bnral Carolinian. Ho was so so licitous for mo to write you on c subject which has been my specialty, that I at length con sented to do so, with tbo hope that the results of my experiments might benefit yonr readers. Your friend said that the snbject of grasses was exciting much inquiry, and though much had been written advising tha seeding of grasses, few knew what species of grass to use, how to prepare tho land, when to sow, and, chief of all, what grasses wore best adapted to tho Coro- linas. I will begin by informing you that I removed to this point from tho Valley of Virginia, hence am familiar with the grasses of that section, and have taken some pains to introduce and grow several varieties at my present homo. Yon can form some idea of tho extent when I irifonn yon that I have now upwards of eighty acres well set in clover. Tho best improver of land, tho best green food for cattle, horses and hogs, and the best fertilizer for wheat, is red clover. This will ■ grow to perfection in red clay in this belt of country. It must be sown on fertile land, well pulvorized by tho harrow; in the spring on land seeded in oats. Immediately after the oats are harrowed inj sow one bushel clover seed to six acres, and tako a light one-horse brash and slightly brush them in. Clover should not be pastured at all the first year, and it would be decidedly more remunerative if it was always cut and fed to horses, cattle, etc. Mr. Ruffin, of Vir ginia, reoommended tho sower of clover seed to take a board (4 feet long and six inches wide) in his left hand, holding it parallel with the ground in front of him, and take as much seed as could be held between the thumb and two forefingers of tho right hand, and with every step to throw the seed against the board, in a land six feet wide; stakes to be used in meastuv ing the land, and moved when tho land is sowed. Some pow as they do turnip seed. Either way will do, so a sufficiency of seed is sown. If by chance a land should be left out or missed in the sowing, by cutting the clover when the soed matures, and placing the clover hay in the bare spots, another year will see it covered. The only objection I have to clever is that it ranB out in a few years. This, however, can bo obviated in this wise: "When clover begins to fail, fallow tho field with a two-horse plow, (this will sink the clover feed very deep) sow down wheat, and my word for it, that a clover sod is the best fertilizer for wheat. Having ob tained one crop of wheat for this field, I would advise.that the field be again fallowed for wheat with a two-horse plow; this process will bring back to the surface the clover seed, which has not suffered a particle by being buried five years. By repeating this process, one need never ran ont of clover. For hay I do not like clover, unless it be mixed with other grasses. Why? Because the second crop of clover salivates; because in hauling clover after it is cored it will shatter and leave nothing bnt stems; and because when ono portions off a field for upland hay, he wishes it to continue as such for at least eight or ten years. For reasons which I will state, I would adviso that clover be sown at all hazards, bnt that it bo mixed with other grass seeds, so that when the clover was near spent the other grass or grasses would take tho field, and becanse the grasses I recommend will, conjointly with clo ver, add to the fertility of the soil, besides making the very best hay, and at the same time continue to hold their own long after clover has disappeared. I have seen orchard grass growing in a field, or rather lot, in Mecklenburg county, which was sown thirty years since. Baxter S. Moore, Esq., near Charlotte, has as fine an orchard grass plot as can ba exhibited in the grass plains near Lex ington, Ky. Indeed, there is no donbt bnt that orchard grass is peculiarly adapted to our sec tion of country, and, like clover, will grow wherever good wheat can be produced. Hence orchard grass should bo used by all means, as it will certainly grow to perfection, and pay as well per acre as any aero planted in cotton or com. Orchard grass can bo sown either in October, November, or with oats in spring—quantity per acre, whether with or without clover seed, (I prefer both sown together,) ono bushel and ono peck. This grass will, if the soil is good, grow three or feet high; is easily gotten rid of by tho plow, and makes a hay next to Timothy. Hero I will remark that Timothy impoverishes land, and cannot withstand a heavy drought. Kentucky blue grass is unsuited to our soil, though you can discover it early in the summer or spring if yon will look in fence corners or at tho foot of a black walnut tree. There is another grass to which my attention has been called within this year, and which meets with so mnch favor with thoso who havo tried it on the exhausted clay lands of Eastern Virginia, that I am forced to believe that it is tho grass for onr section. I will briefly stato the features of this grass: This new grass is styled Evergreen Grass, or Dog Foot, (I do not know its botanical title.) One bushel per aero is tho amount to sow. It is almost a perennial. It resists drouth most successfully of all grasses. It shows itself through almost the entire winter. It requires only moderately fertile land. Soil which will bring fair oats will produce it. It makes an excellent green food for stock, as well as a No. 1 hay. Two crops of hay per annnm is tho yield. It is easily gotten rid of by tbo plow. It grows as high as orchard grass. It recommends itself to every farmer who wishes to set in grass lands which to him are now ut terly worthless. In sowing, use tho same course recommended for sowing orchard grass, (when sown alone.) My observation and knowledge on this sub ject induces mo to urge tho farmers of tho South, who see rain in the course heretofore pur sued—that of going to tho corn-crib for ©very particle of provender fed—to uso the above- mentioned grasses. I did not know until a few days ago that Ev ergreen Grass had been experimented with in this State. I learn from Robert F. Davidson, Esq., of Charlotte, that he has used it most successfully in the past, and wiU, sow some this fall. I know of fifty bushels which havo been ordered by farmers near Charlotte this fall. I will sow fifteen bushels myself. More Anon. Planting Irish Potatoes. From the Rural Carolinian.'] Portions of onr upper country—tho Northern counties of Sonth Carolina ana Georgia and ■Western North Carolina and East Tennessee,for instance,are admirably adapted to the profitable cultivation of the Irish potato. On the Sea Islands and in tho coast region also we have in somo localities suitable soils for their growth, but our prevailing’sandy lands and hot, dry cli mate cannot bo considered naturally best fitted for this crop. It requires moisture and cool ness. To succeed, therefore, on light, sandy soils, wo must seek artificially to produce these conditions to 6Uoh an extent as is practicable. Wo should first dig into tho soil (which should already ba rich from previous manuring) a laTge quantity of vegetable matter—swamp-muck, soil from the woods, decayed leaves and garden refuse; then—an important point—giva it a good dressing of wood nshes, and finally plant early, so as to give the crop the advantage of the most favorable part of tho season to mature. In our modes of planting and cultivation, wo should also have tho same principle in view. Plant (in January or February) in deep far rows or trenches about three feet apart, first scattering in them some half-rotted straw or other litter from tho stable lot or elswhero. Place tho sets about eight inches apart in tho trenches, and scatter somo well rotted stablo manure over them. Aslight dressing is best if tho ground ba already rich. Too much animal manure in jures the quality of tho tubers, though under favorablo circumstances, it may increase tho quantity. Your trenches shonld bo so deep that whon tho sets are sufficiently covered, tho sur face will bo below tho general level, that tho plants may got the full benefit of att tho rain that may fall near them. After the plants come up, hoe them well, and when there is no longer any danger of frost, mulch tho whole patch heav ily with “pine straw” leaves or somo other suit able material, to keep the roote cool and retain the moisture. Directly after a rain is tho best time to apply the mulch. We wait till tho frosts are over, because tho evaporation from the damp mulch lowers the temperatnro so much as to render the plants more liable to bo cut down. If tho mulch cannot bo obtained, keep the ground free from weeds by shallow level cnltnro till the vines cover tho ground. Dig as you re quire the tubers fornse; but if the ground be not mulched, yonr crop will totally disappear— if planted in sandy soil—as soon as summer comes on, all rotting in tho ground. The choice of varieties is a very important matter here— mnch more so than at tho North—many kinds proving utterly worthless with us. The Mercer and Western Red have been favorites, bnt are being discarded in favor of newer sorts, among which the Jackson White, Early Goodrich and Early Rose maybe mentioned ns well tested and shown to bo adapted to ohr climate. Tho difficulty of keeping onr early crop throngh the summer renders it neoossary for ns to pro cure seod potatoes from a cooler climate, and they aro usually bought at the North, and some times at a very high price. Our mountain re gion shonld furnish them in abundaneo at a low er rate, and with no liability to get frozen on their way. Up-country potato-prowers, please take notice, and if you have seed potatoes to sell, advertise them. How to Manage Bones.—A correspondent of the Journal of Agriculture gives the following as his experience every year for the .past ten years, that being as often as he collects bones enough to fill a tub: With a sledge hammer break the bones into pieces of one, two or three inches, take a hogs head tub, pnt two or three inches of hard wood ashes, the samo depth of bones, then ashes and bones until full, ponnd or press solid as cohve- nient, fill with water or urine, all that it will absorb. If donfe in the spring or summer, by tho following spring it will shovel out decom posed, the bones being as soft as chalk. Then add all yonr' hen manure, shovel and rake it over once a week for three or four weeks before planting time; by that time it will bo finely powdered. Pnt about equal to a handful of compost into a hill, for corn, potatoes, squashes, molons, etc., when it will be found to forward tho crops to a wonderful degree. Wood Ashes.—Wood ashes aro exceedingly valuable for sandy soils, and aro beneficial on all soils; are especially valuable in their appli cation to potatoes, carrots, com, peas, beans, clover and the grass generally. As a top-dressing to grass lands it roots out the moss, and promotes the growth of white cloven Upon red clover it is better to ba mixed with one-fourth of its weight of gypsum.

Special Correspondence of Telegraph and Messenger. Washington, December 11, 1869. It is thought this evening that Virginia’s trou bles are now over ; and that ex-Governor Wells, having withdrawn his opposition and urged his fellow-radicals to do the same, the State trill bo admitted. The Georgia question now looms up in the political horizon, and largely engrosses pnblio attention here. Bollock is leaving no stone unturned to accomplish his purpose of further humiliating the State he misrepresents, and of placing its fortunes entirely within the control of himself and his brother carpet-bag gers. He is spending his (?) money freely; giving dinners to carpet-bag Congressmen; waylaying the Senators and Representatives in the corridors of the Capitol; and endeavoring, not without success, to impress the correspond ents of certain Radical papers, with his views, which are duly sent over the wires as strictly orthodox. But while it may appear to Bnllock that all is plain-sailing, these who are behind the scenes declare that his schemes will fail. Georgia conld not have a better person on a mis sion so prejudicial to her interests, than Bol lock, for I havo heard bnt one expression of sentiment regarding him, and that is of unmiti gated contempt and detestation. The Senate Jndicary Committee had a meet ing yesterday afternoon, to consider Georgia matters, at which Governor Bullock was present in behalf of tho late negro members of tho Legislatnre of that State, and Hon. J. Nelson Tift on tho part of tho peoplo of Georgia. Bnllock insisted that Georgia is still as unre- stracted in sentiment as daring tho late war, and that tho only way in which sho can bo brought to an acceptable condition of loyalty is by tho passage of a bill requiring her Legisla ture to reseat tho negro members, and tho ap plication of the test oath to Democratic mem bers of the Legislature and of Congress. Mr. Tift quietly listened to tho harangue of the great reconstractor with exemplary patience, and when he had concluded quietly gave the Judiciary Committee a brief history of Mr. Bullock, from the time he began life as a tele graph operator down to tho present time. Ho said the State would havo ratified the Fifteenth Amendment had not Bnllock instructed all of his party not to do eo. Tho negroes would also havo been reseated on tho decision of tho Su preme Court of the State, had not Bnllock re fused to call tho Legislature together for eight months, though repeatedly urged to do so. His object was to got Congress to deliver a “snap jndgment” on the State before tho meeting of the Legislature next month. Mr. Tift also said that Bnllock had robbed tho State Treasury of over $600,000, and that he was a traitor, a liar, and thief, emphasizing his words by snapping his fingers in Bullock’s face. The Cemmittee listened agape while ho spoke, and when he got through thoy knew more than they cared to. They, however, dismissed the contestants with a promise to consider what had been said on both sides. Foster Blodgett, who is hero in the interest of the Radicals, believes that the Committee will report substantially tho bill of Senator Morton, which requires the restoration of the negro members of tho Legislature and the adoption of tho Fifteenth Amendment (as a pledge of Georgia’s future adhesion to tho behests of Congress) before she shall be considered to havo earned tho position of a free State in theUnion. Morton’s bill comes up Wednesday, and the extremists will make a strong effort to defeat it. Failing in that, thoy will endeavor to secure its postponement nntil after tho holidays. The friends of Georgia here thinkthe require ments of Morton’s bill should bo complied with, in order to avoid tho worse fate of an applica tion of tho test oatb, which Bullock and others are striving for. This seems to bo tho only way in which Bnllock can be headed off, and the sole chance for restoration to ‘'tho family of States.” It was supposed there would be no opposition to the confirmation of the new circuit judges ap pointed by tho President. I learn, however, that not ono of them is acceptable to tho Jndi ciary Committee, and that among those to whom most objection is made is Woods, who was ap pointed to tho Fifth Circuit. The grounds of : bese objections havo not leaked out; but it is predicted that there is trouble brewing between the Senate and tho President, and that a very large number of Executive appointments will ba rejected. The Senato, however, appears in clined to dodge the issue, having adjourned on Friday until Monday without acting on any ono of tho several hundred names sont in, save those of tho two Cabinet officers, Belknap and Robe son. Mr. Evartshas arrived, and has been exceed ingly busy in putting things to rights in the At torney-General’s office, everything having got in great disorder during his absence. Mr. Hoar’s incapacity to fill his present position is supposed to bo one of tho reasons for placing him on the Supremo Bench, which, will lia dono shortly. Why not reinstate Mr. Evarts .then a3 Attorney-General? ' ■ - People have not yet done talking of the mar riage of Mr. Paul Girard, a French citizen, and a brother-in-law of the Portuguese minister, to Jliss Wormley, an octoroon girl. The afl'iir has received new zest, from the fact that tho French delegation here do not recoguile tho marriage, and declare it illegal, certain requirements of the French law not having been complied with by the groom. Secretary Fish gave a grand reception (tlie first of the season) Friday night. It was largely attended by foreign ministers and their fam ilies, and other dignitaries. Many beautiful women were present, and there were a number of elegant and costly toilets. Cards are out for another reception on the 17th. These are very informal ana pleasant gathering. Bailey, the sculptor, is erecting a studio on the While House grounds, jn which to model “Cincinnatus,” tho President’s favorite trotter, for his colossal equestrian statue of Grant, to be placed immediately before the south point of the Treasury building. Petitions for tho recognition of Cuba continue to pour in, and tho names attached aggregate many thousands. They will avail nothing. It Is understood that tho Honso Committee on Foreign affairs (with the exception of Banks, who was not present at the meeting,) will sup port the views of tho President respecting Cuba, as set forth in his message. The Democratson tho committee have concurred in this aotion. The Jndiciary Committee of tho House will report favorably on the repeal of tho Tenure-o£-> Office-Act. It ’is thought a bill to repeal tho Act will pass the House; but its fate in tho Senato is uncertain. Tho probabilities are, that it will bo defeated. I have it from good authority that the Presi dent has expressed himself in favor of the re moval of the Capital to St Louis. It is said he owns real estate there; and that Corbin, tha speculative Presidential brother-in-law, has re cently mado largo investments in corner lots in tho same city. Dalton.

And by whom and for what ? By Rufus B. Bullock, a stupid adventurer, from Albion, New York, who by force and fraud was proclaimed the Governor of the State “ , . In June, 1868, tho State of Georgia, (then District No. 3,) held her State election for Gov ernor, members of Congress and the Legisla tnre, in accordance with the Reconstruction Acts of Congress.

Governor Bullock and the Kimball hretiat of Connecticut, purchased a building for$30,M^ in the city of Atlanta, and after making ta t- rangement with the municipal authorities oftk said city for the conversion of said building ia a capital for the State, said municipal amh» ities binding themselves to pay to the raid Kb- ball brothers and the said Bullock, $10,000 «t annum for five years, and also to furnish, iliia expense of the city, a suitable mansion for lit Governor.

Congress, however, not knowing the seiretd Gov. Bullock’s sympathy for the Africa bp lators, initiated legislation to recocs&i Georgia anew.
