to reopen the old wounds and inrite the
i wroth of Congress npon ns once more,
j His message will sadly disappoint the
WF I people of the State, with the exception
! of a very small black minority, and a
I few ambitions white men who have fail
ed to get into office in the conrse of re
construction. He shows n want of wisdom
in referring to the wishes of these men
to the detriment of the great majority.
The whole'object is political.

The Abgub has a circulation through
out the bounds of the South Georgia
Methodist Conference, which is one of
the most important sections for adver
tise^ in the South. tf-
remarks on the subject.
The Georgia Legislature cn the
16th refused, by a large majority, to
reseat the expelled negro members.
A Sad Fall.—Rev. L. G. Bingham,
one of the oldest preachers in the
city of New York, has been arrested
for fraudulent practices in the stock
market. His age is seventy-eight.
Bipeds and Qnadrnpeds.—On
Exhibition. *
Another grand show is soon to bo
on exhibition in this city fpr the en
tertainment of our people. Those
who have a dollar to spare, and con
clude it their duty to promote the in
terests of this show-company by con
tributing it thereto, will doubtless
find much to .langh at from the
grimaces and actions of both bipeds
and quadrupeds; but we venture to
predict that the monkey will sur
pass the clown in eliciting applause.
Not, however, on account of his be
ing the bigger fool, but his superior
ity in practicing monkey motions—he
being a natural monkey, while the
clown will only be a ficticious unita-
tion^of the monkey. Philosophers
who have proved that man was
something more than an animal, and
endowed with higher powers than
ipere sinew and muscle, have failed
to enlighten the'world as to the com
parative merits of the two when
placed together on exhibition as
mere animals. It would be an imer-
esting subject, and it is ratber strange
U been overlooked by
Jhe writers on natural science.
1 Wo enjoy a laugh—have a favora
ble opinion of one always in a good
humor; but we think a man might
be more profitably employed than to
occupy his time and talents in mak
ing others laugh, £or proving his
agility by turning summer sanlts, or
otherwise exercising his animal gifts
in a circus ring. Immortals should
wm at something higher, nobler nnd
more useful.
Colored Conference.—The Colored
Annual Conference for the Slate of
Georgia met in Augusta on the 6!b
inst., Bishop G. F. Pierce presiding.
The Bishop ordained 17 Deacons and
14 Elders, and made appointments
for the State, there being sixty min
isters present.
Rev. Samuel Anthony was appoint
ed Superintendent of the Conference.
We are, as we have always been,
a friend to the n^ro?’but from our
knowledge of ther pecnliar unfitness
of the race to govern, we confess that
we have serious doubts of the propri
ety and success of this effort, especi
ally in their present stale of ignor
ance, to place the religious interests
of the race in their own hands. We
fear and dread the consequences to
them; but, under the circumstances,
do not know what better could be
done.
Tho Georgia Legislature is calling
npon the Governor to make good his
charge that there is t no protection in
this State for life and’property.
Montpelier Institute.—This is, per
haps, one of tho finest institutions for
young ladies in tho South. Establish
ed, under the patronage of Bishop
Elliot, nearly eighteen years ago, it has
ever sustained a high reputation.
The location is noted for its healthful
ness of climate, and its excellent water.
We are informed that not a single case
of chill and fever has ever been- con
tracted at Montpelier; that many young
ladies have been taken there while suf
fering with this disease, but after being
there for a short time they were all re
stored to perfect health. •
The Rector, in a private letter, says:
The Institute Buildings have been
renovated and painted; and refurnished
throughout with regard to taste, con
venience nnd comfort. We have here
now a complete coprs of accomplished
instructors, nnd it is my own aud Mrs.
Prvse’s determination to make the In
stitute, in every respect, a first-class
school for the daughters of the South.
Mrs. Fryse has been engaged in tlie
instruction nnd training of* young ladies
for more than thirty years, aud lias had,
duriDg that time, several thousands of
young ladies unler her care.”
We refer onr readers to the advertise
ment, elsewhere, for the Spring Term,
which commences on the 3rd of Febru
ary proximo.
Governor’s Message
Not having sufficient space to justify
our publishing Governor Bullock s mus-
sage to tho Legislature, we copy, in lien
tbsreof, tho following comment upon it
by our able contemporary of the Macon
Telegraph:
There is but one prominent idea in
Governor Bullock’s message—the ex
pulsion of the negroes from the Georgia
Legislator* The iRnterial interests of
the State are wholly ignored, of if al
luded to at all, are rarely mentioned.
He seems determined to put tho nigger
hack as one of onr law-makers, and will
ho content with nothing short of this.
In the course of the document he quotes
from the various Reconstruction Acts of
Congress, from Grant, from Rawlings,
from Sherman, from Meade, and last,
(but by mistake,) from John W. Forney.
He only alludes vaguely to the wishes of
•fhe majority of the people of Georgia,
Mft seems to take the will of these out-
tidera, and to be of tho conviction that
there Is no appeol from their opinion.
He gives us the special and extraordi
nary document he sent to Congress, in
which it is denied Georgia has conform- t .
•d to the Reconstruction Acts, and asks dispose of their goods.
that she be again taken in hand. The
Legislature is told plainly that unless it
porges itself Of all members unable to
jo do many prominent Republicans of
Georgia regret, the efforts of their Gov-
to again plunge the State into po
litical ehoas. He is simply an executive
ufficer, and is not, therefore, called npon
liy the duties of his office to say who
jhallbe members of the Legislature,
that body is made the sole judges of
the eligibility of its members, and the
governor is no wise responsible. In this
iction he throws aside the mantle of the
governor and assumes the garb of the
politician- -
How far more appropriate it would
tare been for him to bare devoted this
tate paper to the agricnltural, mineral
nd other material interests of the State!

Rev. J. W. Duval died suddenly, of
heart disease, in Lake City, Fla^ on

We learn from the Thomasville En
terprise that ,the Central Railroad has
employed secret agents to buy up the
S. G. and F. Railroad stock. For the
purpose, no doubt, of killing the road.

The Business of Bainbridge.—W e
presume there is no locality, of equal
size, in the South that has presented
a livelier business aspect than this
city has presented during the last
few weeks. Tlie rise in cotton, and
the opening of the new year, admon
ishing farmers of the approach of the
log burning, fence-repairing, and
land-plowing season, have caused
cotton, and other surplus produce,
to find its way to market. Our streets
have been, for weeks, filled with
wagons of cotton, and other mark
etable produce, while the stores have
been thronged with customers.
Wc have not been furnished with
the number of bales of cotton brought
to this city the present season, but it
must be very large. Anti in addition—
syrup, sugar, potatoes, hides, tallow,
rice, corn, fodder, poultry, &c., &c.,
increase the sum total, swelling it to
gratifying proportions.
Money is becoming more plentiful;
and new buildings are going up in
every part of the city-
The cotton market during the
season has equalled that of Savan
nah, freight nnd insurance added.
This is a new feature; but it is a
dictate of good judgment, which our
merchants would do well to continue
in the future. They can afford to
pay Savannah prices, while enabled'

Bullock for issuing credentials to'Mr.

We think it would be better, under
the present threatening state of af
fairs, for the Legislature to refrain
from any act, however justifiable by
the true merits of the case, that
would’ tend to irritate the powers

Brutal Murder.—A few miles' from
the city, last week, was the scene of one
oflthe most uiabolieafj.murders which
have grown out of the emancipation of
the negro. A poor old negro man, who
had a large family of dependents, had
managed by dint of hard labor to accu
mulate some thirty dollars. A young,
robust buck negro, wlio answers to the
name of “General” Amos, being aware
of the old man’s treasure and having a
longing desire to possess himself of it,
took occasion and killed liim, literally
beating his head into mince-meat with
an axe. He then took the coveted thirty
dollars and absconded.
Sheriff Waugh, being informed of the
fact, immediately went in search of the
murderer and brought him to jailj on
Tnesday last.

rTHE Fifty-sixth Half-yearly Term <f this
j Institute, will commence February 3, ISC 1 . 1 .
Ifae Institute is situated at Montpelier, the
seat of tbe once celebrated School, under the
late vemrab.e Bish p Elliot, of Georgia.
Th* location unites important advantages
worthy of the particular consideration of parents
and guardi ins. The noted salubrity of its cli
mate exempts it from oil fevers and other pre
vailing diseases throughout the most sickly
seasons bf the year ; its quiet seclusion removes
it from all influences that cau interfere with tho
uninterrupted prosecution of studies, and its ex
tensive and beautiful grounds afford unrivalled
opportunities for exercise and rcercation.
The Course of Instruction embraces all the
branches of a thorough and finished education.
Tbe English and Classical Departments will be
under tho personal instruction of the Rector and
the Principal, aided by competent sissi.-tants.
The Department of Music, Instrumental and
vocal, will be in charge of Professor Federic
Smichdt. The French Language will be taught
by f^l'e. Josephine Le Gal; and droWinf and
Painting, by Miss Ada L. Eno,
The Religious Instruction is in accordance
with the principles a; d usages of the Protestant
Episcopal Church, but care is taken not’ to in
terfere with the persuasions and feelings of pu
pils belonging to different creeds. All the
young ladies arc required to attend jnorning
and evening devotions ou week-days, and the
services of the Church twice every Sunday, in
the Chapel of the Institute.
The Rector and Principal of this Institution
are extensively known for their long experience
and success in the instruction and training of
youngladies; and it is their determination, sus
tained and encouraged by the patronage of the
South, to make Mohtpelier Institute, in every
respect, such as will secure to the pupils intius-
ted to their care, the advantages of a first-class
school of'learning, combined with the comforts
of a pleasant Christian home.
