On Tuesday (tail an election will be held fat an Executive of yonr State. It is pwoe aome, from Information detired from W ashing- ton, that the ltepubiirao party aro organized and will, on that day, rally for the purpose * electing a eandidrto of their own selection. ‘ prevent this every Democrat ahonld do hie doty.

Tbe Election. Thia is tho la at edition of onr paper which all) reach distant readers before the election. Wo entreat ell voters to torn ont end vindicate the supremacy of the lew and Iho rights of the people on that day. There is not even a Radi- cal in Georgia, whoso opinion is worthy of re spect, who does not ooncedo the legality and constitnUonslity of this election, tot Demo crats, at least, maintain a firm and nnbroken front, and rally to the polls on Tnesday next. If through contempt of tho law, factions op position or servility to mere usurpation, any of the oonnty functionaries refuse to set in the elec tion, as the law provides, it empower* the peo ple present at the polls lo do it and administer the necessary oaths to each other. tot Inspector* remember that there must be three returns msdo ont and signed. One return for filing in the Clork'a offiee of tho county; one return to be forwardod to the Governor and ao addressed, and a third lo be addressed on the outaide to lion. L. N.

We eee thet Senator Benben Jones, from Ito Ninth Diatriot, put Brook, Itadioal, (and “light ning calculator"; in a very oloao corner during the debate in the Senate on tbe report of the Committee on the State of the liepnblic. Brock said ho never wantod to see Georgia under military rule again—that he longed to see the day when peaco and prosperity would reign all over the Blate. Bonalor Jones got ont of pa tience with his whining hypocrisy, and imme diately asked him if to (Brock) had not signed an addroaa to tbe “Hepnblicans of Georgia” in which the Legislature was denounced aa an 11. legal and revolutionary body, and ihe declara tion made that liapnMican* could not bava pro tection at Iho polls—which document tod been forwarded to Washington, and tbe plain pur pose of which wae to invite military interfer ence by tbe Federal Government ? Thia ques tion pnt Brock in a regular bone sweat, and made him tarn several different colon all at onoe, bat after a lit of tbe dry grins be made answer that be had signed eneb a document, bat that he did not know what wae A) it at tbe lime of aignlng! As a “lightning calculator," and where his pocket la concerned, Brock is a grand auooeas, but wo don't know a more decided failure as an answerer of a plsin question. Aa old John Ou trode turd to say, to is a “frod,' in that line. Official I’olilrnrM. That suavity which should mark the inter course bolween the co-ordinate departments of government baa been put to soma rude shocks by Conley, end the last one of thorn ia set forth The committee charged with communicating the action nf tbe Grner.'J Assembly in relation lo adjournment to tbe soling Governor,reported that i hey bad i erfonued their duty, and had beeu informed by Hon. Benjamin Conley that be did not rcoogniae the fact that there was any General Assembly in session, but that if to did he probsbty would have something to com munioate. That is decidedly cool, to come from a mao who has positively no legal right at all to the Executive ototr be occupies. What Ur. Conley might have had to communleate to the General Assembly, supposing he bed not etrnck their flag, aiopped their pay and disowned them alto- g tber, we suppose may have been Bollock’s confession of eight pages, that all the bonds he had bean issuing were illegal or fraudulent. Be tbet ee it may, Conley was not polite, and, indeed, it is said be haa been in a chronic fret all the aaaaion. He is out of temper, generally, and will get worse, we fear, before to begins to mend. Axontaa Hist to Ur. Vatic*.— 1 The demo cratic Senators have united In a letter to Sena tor elect Vance, of Noitb Carolina, asking him to withdraw bis claims on the ground that there ia no probability that he will be admitted, and therefore bo ought to give Ito North Carolina Legislature an opportunity to (end a man in his place who will be admitted. We find this paragraph in a special Washing ton dispatch to tto Baltimore Sun, of Thurs day, and for fear the editor of tto Colnmbne Son may not ace it in hie Baltimore namesake, we reprint it for bit special consideration. It aaema the representatives of the Democratic party in the Senate do sot agree with onr Co lombo! ootemporary aa to the wisdom of being •forever unrepresented," ete. They are in a po sition to know how much good ono vote and one voice can do them and tbe country, end being practical men, with no torn for theatricals, they want that assistance if it be possible to get it They also know that they can nover get it through Gov. Vanoe, and therefore, like hon eat men, they tell him ao. There can to no other course for him to pursue now, aa a pat riot, than to promptly return his credentials to the Legislature and allow that body to send somebody to Washington who can represent North Carolina intide tto Senate ohamber.

Tto civilized and Christian world were de lighted last sotnmer with tto disinterested zeal displayed by the Grant Badieal* in the great cease of political reform and honest government against Tweed and Tammany Hall. The severe, and unsparing, and indignant virtue displayed by these gentlemen in their onslaught opon Tammany raised tto topee of mankind of a speedy return to tto Spartan age when public service was its own reward, and men refuted to take money in payment for official labor. Never did people clamor ao loudly ae they for poshing investigation Into every nook where corruption might lurk-from chimneypot to eellar; ao sharp to soaped or ao prompt to denoi everything resembling whitewashing and oon- But we are foray to eay them fierce reformer* have sudd only buret ttoir bilera.

They will not have hungry dogs of impartial and onivaraal investi gation nosing promiaenooaly round that aty. There is a great deal about thorn particular premia** which Utay have no dearie ahonld see the light Hr. Trumbull wants a joint committee with foil powers to path investigation into all the rael tinnana of corruption. He and others bring testimony to tbe most monstrous abuse* railing for tto freest inquiry. But that is pro- citely what them other Beformere will not have. They insist only upon a Senate com mittee with very limited powers and always under the oonrioi of the administration ma jority. r Congregational .Singing. We were not a little etrnck with a sot di»- oourao pronounced upon this subject by one of onr pastors on a recent occasion. Tto argu ment in behalf of thia branch of publio wor ship was very pointed and elaborate. Tto speaker fortified hia position by quoting many apposite passage* of scripture, and instated that the duty waa of a positive and binding na ture. He waa expected when entering the pul pit to give beaten oil to the people, and tha other office bearers of tho church likewise, had their labors and function* prescribed, which they oonld not neglect, and be counted guiltless. So with tto department of psalmody. The praise of God in the greet congregation, was moat specifically and emphatically enjoined by the directory of church government, end the teachings of holy writ. This waa not intended to apply only to the few who usually conducted this portion of divine worship. He was not op posed to choirs; on the contrary approved of them highly a* leaders of the sacred mnsio and mtial to proper harmony and unity of exa cation. Bat God's praise could not be dele gated to others, or made the occasion of artistic and formal exhibitions of operetta talent, frequently the feot. All were required to join in tto exeretae, end aid in raising thorn swelling anthems and joyous songs of thanks giving which reverberate through the vaulted arches of heaven and are wafted to the very throne of a j salons bnt meroifnl God. He be lieved, therefore, that general attention ahonld be directed to this subject, end individuals and congregations ongbt to learn mnaio and im prove themselves in church psalmody. Tto writer had the opportunity aome months ainoe, of witnessing a pleasing illustration of ihe above reasoning in tto cbnrcb of that noted and eloquent Scotch divine. Dr. Hall, of New Tork. At least one thoneand five hundred aoals thronged the seat*, stales, and galleries, (the Utter several tiers high,) of the spacious taber nacle, ell banging with breathless interact opon the speaker's solemn utterance*. After tto reading of tto first hymn, a single individual, book in hand, aaoended the stage end taking bta stand at the right of tto minis ter, raised tbe tone in a sonorous tone. Tbe whole eongregation joined in, assisted by the organ, and a mighty volnme of sweetest har mony rising lond and clear from tto vast as sembly, went np like the shout of a boat to heaven. Tbe effeot waa grand and inspiring in tho extreme. Music is indeed a powerful auxiliary in the worship of God, purifying the thoughts, and ntensifying tto devotions of believers. It wit Ida a magical Influence also upon tbe masses, and we eonld wish that every church of all da- nominationa in tbe oonntry waa blessed with a cultivated choir and singing congregation.
