^Convention of the Protestant Episco-
■JjCiaNh,of the Diocese of Georgia, ad-
|* ,j tint die on Friday evening last, at a
hour, after a session of four days, in
time a considerable amount of business
. ^nsacted and various matters folly and
iHlj* discussed. Some thirty or forty minis-
r «adW delegates were in attendance and
: n t C rest w;w manifested by the congre-
0 f St. Paul’s Church here in the
B! 0 f the Convention. Before final ad-
i^ocnt, the Convention unanimously
['"anted * resolution extending their heart-
tli thanks to the citizens of Albany for their
aous reception and very hospitable entcr-
^nment, many of the divines tookoc-
®L, w state, publicly, that their sojourn
fh j*'J been pleasant in the extreme, and
liv would be most happy to assemble in Con
ation in this city again at an early day.—
Tflod ninny of the delegates left lor their
~£gtive homes on Saturaay last, but a
remained over until to-day.
sendees in the church, yesterday, were
j, T ery imposing character. At 10, a. m.,
jLop Beckwith delivered a most eloquent
impressive discourse to a veiy large and
S»ent congregation. The church was
Sjy overflowing; even the aisles and ves-
S were blocks up with people anxious
Mliitea to the teachings of so eminent a dis-
“Ljr of Divine Truth. In the evening,
LhoUfC was again crowded to excess. The
"L jn was preached by the Rev. Dr. Bene-

Snistcred to six persons, Bishop Beckwith
JjjlUins the™ at length in words of warn-
Lanil ecouragement.
church here has a good organ and a
rcn fine choir, and the singing, both in the
Soring and evening, was excellent.
Fora town of Albany s size and population,
,V forcibly struck with the smallness of
Ajkiwus churches. The Episcopal, Mcth-
lVjsbytemn buildings arc quite
”vi a p,| their capacity very limited. The
oiiiid perhaps accommodate 300
T^ d !. white tho other two I do not think
over 200 each. Still I am told that
the dioeity of each is amply sufficient on or-
occasions for the congregation, which
I toes u> prove that many of the people hero
U „oj much given to church-going. As far
1 jsmTobservation has extended, however, the
moral'of the town are very good. I have
hit little dissipation; and everything ap-
Kirs to move on quietly and orderly. The
ijmtg liicn generally are sober and indu-tri-
L cncig tie and persevering, and attend to
h incss with a fidelity which speaks well for
ih community- So, though the people may
jj, be very religious, still they have a great
iK»rd for morality, which, according to an
foment divine, i» only one step removed from
idiiion.
On yederdey, a party ol eighteen or twenty
life an ! gei t < m n came up from Thomas-
vEc, ou the South Georgia and Florida road
sil remained in town until this morning. As
Mod in my last, it will be some time before
lie passenger tiain commences to run regu-
isrlj on this read, although it is now wei!
hilt to within a mile or two of the city. T'- a
Company propose the erection of a large and
siibst'antial warehouse on the oppositc side of
tie river for the accommodation of farmers in
tht section, which will be quite convenient
ud rave them the expense of toll for hauimg
tirir produce across the Tift bridge. The
road will cross the river above this bridge, and
in the vicinity of the Southwestern depot,
whtre another warehouse will be built _
In conversation with one of the engineers
iythv, 1 learned that the Brunswick and Al
bany read is now constructed to Waresboro’
| in Warn county, about eight miles this side of
>’o. 9, where it crosses the Gulf lload, and
j about C'» fir .n Brunswick-. The grading and
'triag <>1 tlio iron are being rapidly carried
I firward, muter the supervision of Col. 11
Hn'ihert, who, if I icculieet aright, is the in-
| dividual who countrd Gen. Gordou out of the
I Govfrnor.-hip of Georgia. Where the road
shall cross the Flint, has not yet been deter
mine! on For a distance of ten miles out
frni this phee, the river can be approached
tt any jioint with great ease, and it is a mat
ter kincdi.-c-is ed among the engineers as to
ikretkey will cro: s. Below the toll bridge
the river is narrower, and better situated_ tor
I wouructing the bridge, but as the river is a
oirigal'e one, the Company would be com*
frlkil to build a draw bridge, which _ would
tv rather expensive. I have heard it said
that there is a possibility of the two roads
suiting and building a bridge together, with
idonblo track, but the arrangements for this
| sill hardly be effected.
.Quite a heavy shower of rain fell in this
vicinity on Friday last, which has doubtless
ken of great benefit to the crops. Since then
tie weather has been quite cord. .The gar
dens in and around the city are in nice condi
tion. end look very fine.. Green peas, potatoes,
[ tribhes, etc., arc plentiful.
1 see that ia your issue of the Cth, you take
! notice of an incident which occurred ia the
Circuit Court at Quincy, Fla., a few days ago,
«d mentioned by a correspondent of the
Floridian at Tallahassee. Your correspondent
was present in the court on that day, and
Wd the confes-ion of a negro juror that he
had taken an oath never to. find one of his
own color guilty when a white man was.a
lwy to the controversy or had an interest in
lie verdict The negro was a loyal leaguer,
aid the day before he had served as a juror in
lie trial of a criminal offence, the prisoner
wing a negro and the result a mistrial
When called again the nexr day to serve on
the jury, the prosecuting attorney bad the
food sense to question him, when the above
act was disclosed. The Judge ordered his
tame to bo imidediately stricken from the list

surked that if the Grand Jury had not ad-
burned the day before, he would have him
indicted tor perjury. The presiding Judge
WK tho Hon. P. »V. White, an old, reliable
aadmuch esteemed citizen of (jadaden county,
Fk, a man whoso honesty, probity and integ
rity of character has never been impeached,
Ud a Judge who administers the law m a fair
and impartial manner. He is well knewn per-
sonally to the writer, and. this statement is
Bade to prevent any injustice being done him
W those unacquainted with his character.
The juries in Florida are composed lareely
•f ignorant negroes. They are selected from
the list of registered voters by the county
commissioners, who are appointed by the
Radical Governor, Reid, ana consist cen
trally of men of his own political stn pc. Each
Ounty has five commissioners, and in many
rases two and threo out of the five are negroes,
who select just such persons to serve as grand
petit jurors as they know will viowanat-
ters from a Radical stand-point. The admis
sion made by the negro juror in Quincy, is
last what would fall from the hps of nme-
tenths of them, if, upon being questioned,
*h«y would give a truthful answer. But now
•hat this discovery has been made, the alarm
Jill be communicated throughout the State
by the mean and contemptible. white men
?ho control them, and no more will be caught
•orach a trap; for they will swear positively
they never took such, an oath* and that
•hey are prepared to render a verdict in accord
ance with the evidence. And there will he no
WEsiWe way of convicting them of perjury or
•rajthing else. All this.is but the legitimate
rarak of Radical teaching, propagatcd.by that
Powerful engine of discord and strife, the

raain here the bolter I like the placa. ! , Umia
People are generous and hospitable, and, a
stranger moving about among them meets

•owes him feel perfectly at home.
In the way of hotels, Albany has two—the
"»me3 House and Towns’ Hotel. The latter
j* located near the eastern terminus of Broad
weet, and. is kept by Messrs. Warren &
Kemp. The building and equipments are.
comparatively new, and the house is conduct
ed in a manner creditable to tho city. The
senior proprietor, formerly of the -Lanier
House, in Macon, devotes his whole time and
energies to the business ; is always clever and
polite, and very attentive to the wants and
comforts of his guests. Persons traveling this
way can find no tetter accommodations than
those famished by the Towns’ Hotel.
The Macon train arrives here about 3, p. ir.,
and in a little while the mail is distributed
and the office opeued, when the rush for the
news commences. I go quietly in, and find
regularly in my box a copy of the Telegraph
& Messenger, which affords me ample in
tellectual enjoyment for the balance of the
day. I think it is, without a doubt, one of
if not, the test paper in the South, and I look
for it as anxiously as I do for the arrival of my
dinner-hour, which will sound a little dubious
to those who know.' me well. Your paper
should have a large circulation in this part of
Georgia. It is received on the same day it is
published and always contains the latest and
most reliable intelligence. More anon. D.
The General Conference.
Memphis, May 9, 1870.
Oa Saturday a great many memorials were
presented, but as they will come np again I will
not dwell npon them now. Samo will cause
lengthy discussions, as they propose changes
that affect the very existence of the itint racy
This peculiarity gone, and Methodism would bo
but another Sampson without his locks.
Oar Georgia delegation have made a line im
pression npon the Conference as well as npon
the citizens. The Appeal this morning pays a
tribute to three of them: Gen. Colqnitt, Judge
Jackson and Col Lester. Althongh filled with
errors as to facts, yet it was well intended as
well os deserved.
On Saturday thio Conference adjourned to
attend the Memorial Association ceremonies at
Elmwood. A large crowd was there. The cer
emonies wore very imposing. Tho address of
General Bates was exceedingly fine. Every
body was loud in its praise. It was a gala day,
one long to be cherished by the country, where
all men, without regard to class or religion,
meet together to mingle their tears and prayers
over the graves of the fallen heroes of the Lost
Cause.
This morning tho Conference opened as usual
by the cal! of conferences, and another lot pf
memorials, petitions and papers were reported
and referred to appropriate Committees.
Bishop Andrew, the senior Bishap, gavo the
Conference one of his fatherly talks. It was
full of pathos and feeling. He deprecated the
desire manifested npon the part of many to be
constantly changing rules and laws of the
church. He also condemned in strong language
the disposition to eulogize and glorify each oth
er in newspaper articles. This evil, he said,
was growing in the church, and was disgusting
the better portion of the membership. He
hoped to see no more of it. He reviewed the
past four ycara of his life, remarking that that
would be his last General Conference. He
asked the prayers of the assembly.
A resolution was offered by Dr. Pitts, of
Tennessee, and seconded by Dr. Evans, of
Georgia, instructing the Committee on Episco
pacy to appoint one of tho Bishops or some
other snitablo parson to write the life of the late
Bishop Jsshua Soule.
To-day it was found necessary to put on the
breaks, and after a warm discussion it was re-
Bolved to receive no new matter after Saturday
the 14th iost. And also a resolution to adjonrn
sine die on the 231 of May. This will bo well
if there is no move for reconsideration. No ono
can divine the future, however. All delibera
tive bodies take great pleasure in undoing what
they adopt
Tuns far the health of the delegation has been
remarkably good. No ono from Georgia has
been the least indisposed.
The remarkable unity of action npon tho part
of the laity on all questions, has boon a subject
of comment It is evident that they are a
strong power, and will have great influence in
determining the legislation of this body.

Yesterday aftornoon, Governor Buliook filed
n formidable suit against the Constitution in the
Supreme Court of Fulton county. Immediately
after the filing, the concern was withdrawn by
the Attorneys of the Execntivo. It would have
afforded ns pleasure to have furnished our
readers with the interesting contents of this
bel'igerent document, but as wo have not had
n glimpse at its inspiring contents, there most
be a temporary deprivation of that felicity.
Perhaps the Radical organ will favor ns.
We are informed, however, that tho ground
of the suit is the article sent us by our Wash
ington correspondent, “Argus,” furnished him
by “Y," the correspondent of tho Baltimore
Gazette, charging Gov. Bullock with having
sold the State Road to the Express Company.
His exasperated Excellency, we are informed,
lays his damage at the small sum of twenty-fivo
thousand dollars. John L. Hopkins and Judge
Brown are bis Attorneys.
Hairy up, gentlemen! We aro curious to
read that c mcern, and the readers of The Con-
Mitutioo, we know, will be burning to pernso
the Governor’s eloquence.
Let us have it, Governor.
Gov. Baku, of Idaho, was serenaded in At
lanta, Monday night, as the Constitution says,
in the presence of a thousand enthnsiastio peo
ple. The Governor gave vent to a good many
opinions, one of which was that Georgia is tho
proudest Stato tho sun shines on, in spito of all
her political troubles. Tho Governor was fol
lowed by Col Thomas P. Saif old, “who paid
a glowing tribute to tho Governors of Georgia,
from Oglethorpe to Joe Brown, where he plead

Grant is chiefly remarkable in what ho does

columns of the Tribune.
To-day’s Tribune eays: “Mr. Wilson consents,
wo regret to sea and say, that the clauso of his
Army bill reducing tbs forces to 25060 men shall be
struck out on the argument of Southern Senators
that it won’t do to take any troops from the South,
and on that of Western Senators that additional
forces are needed in tho West to fight the Indians.
It does not appear to have been suggested to tho
Southern gentlemen that a safer policy for that
section would be to rnle by law and amity rather
than by fear and proscription. Tho Western Sena
tors will discover eventually wbat they do not ap-'
pear now to know, that it is cheaper to feed than
to fight Indians; and as tho people bavo forgotten
past animosities towards the rebels, and heartily
favor redeeming present promises to tho Indians,
wo suggest that the further military occupation of
the South, and an expensive war in the West, are
not absolutely essential to the well being of the
republic.

mission met in Philadelphia in 1869, where resolu
tions were adopted approving tho action contem
plating a onion of tho’’two churches, but it is

mittees to confer with ns previous tho the confer

tion will bo approved.

firearms freely, but tho troops made no general
use of them.

Salvia’s Hair Coloring An insuperable objec
tion, to the continued use of most of tho Hair
Dyes’of the shops, is the fact that they, cause,, in
many instances, serious constitutional effects; as
no lead or satumino poisons aro used in “Salvia’s
Hair Coloring;” there is not the slightest danger o
palsy, neuralgia of the scalp and face, cholic, con
stipation, etc.
Tho ominont chemist has, for many years past,
been endeavoring to create a chemical preparation
that would combine the valuable proprietors of a
harmless, reliable coloring, and at the same time,
render its use impossible to be detected by the clos
est observation.
By the use of the ordinary Hair Dyes, tho hair
presonts a dead appearance, and it is noticed at a
glance that it is dyed.
By using this scientific compound, the coloring el
the hair is bo Silkfully modified as mellowed aa to
defy detection, thus giving to the work an article
that has been long and fruitlessly sought for, and
guaranteed to give entire satisfaction. Perfectly
colorless—no stain to the skin. Bo sure and ask
for Salvia's Hair Coloring. feblG-dAwtf.
Koskoo.— 1 This medicine is rapidly gaining the

monials of its virtues, given by practitioners of

from Prof. B. S, Newton, M. D., President of theE.
Medical College, City of New York, that speaks in
high terms of its curative properties, and gives a
special recommendation of Koskoo to the practi
tioners of medicine. This is, we believe, the first
instance where such medicines have been officially
endorsed by tbo Faculty of any of the medical eol-
egee, and reflects great credit upon tho skill of Dr.
Lawrenco, its compounder, and also puts "Koskoo"

merchant of Norfolk, Va.
N'o, II Main Street, Norfolk, Va., Sept. IS, 1E6S.
Dr. Lawiikncf.—Dear Sir: , Your Koskoo has
worked wondera in my family. My daughter has
been a sufferer from Scroiula siaccp childhood. 8he
lost thirty-one pieces of bono from her ankle, several
fiom her arm, besides having at ers in several parts
of tno body. Whilst in this condition she commenced
taking yonr Koskoo—it acted like a charm on her:
undek its nso tho ulcers gralnoily healed, and her
general health greatly improved. It certainly saved
her mach suffering, and perhaps her. life. I regard
ICoskoo asnccifio forall scrofulous affections. Y«ur
Koskoo also cared my wifs of dyspepsia; from which
she suffered greatly. She is now in better health than
she has been in five years. With the highest regards,
I am gratefully yours. Ac., A. W. MILLS.

Liver Invigorator, Blood Pnriffier, and Nervous
Tome. In nil diseases of the Liver, Scrofulous Syph

From Dr, Lloyd, a Physician of largo practice:
Groat Bridge. Va.,Octobers. 1869-
J. J. Liwekxcs, M. D.—Dear Sir: I cheerfully
endorse your Krskoo as being a most valuable prepa
ration. Upon examination of the formula. I'find
each ingredient highly extolled by our beet and most
progressive clinical investigators. I have tested its
enacts m my own practice, and have no hesitation in
recommending it. In my opinion, it is the besteom-
poundotits class ever put before the publio-exceed
ine by far all the various componds of sarsaparilla,
Ac. f- over invented. It is a decided Nerve Tonic, and
Invigoratcr of the animal forces, aiding digestion
and assimilation, and thereby producing healthy
blood, which should be the basis of treatment in all
chronic diseases. Hoping you will reap the reward
you deserve from the public as a benefactor. I am sir,
yours truly, CHARLES LLOYD. M. A.
