Wo happened to bo in Middle
Georgia on 1 the Heception of the news
that the city of Savannah had dis
posed of her stock in the Atluntic and
Gulf Kuilroad to- the. Southwestern
Hoad. The excitement it produced
was very great; nftd the sentiment
-seemed to prevail* universally that
tiro hostility of that city and the
Central to kbe Macoft anti Brunswick
rond was the motive prompting the
transaction. Savannah was severely
censured, nod many resolved never
to have business intercourse with the
city again;’ that Brunswick should
have all their countenance and sup
port.
While wo believe mileli of tlic
feeling of hostility against the city of
Savannah, on account of the nnwise
couiajfc^ersucd in this instance by
j really the trne state of tho case, and that,
! after all, reconstruction wi.l ultimately
prove a failure.
Some of the Southern people have,
strangely enough, since the defeat of the
Democratic ticket at the late Presidential
election, made up their minds to accept
negro suffrage and thp miserable iniqui
ty and fraud upon the South, known
under the name of Reconstruction. But
the signs of the times indicate that they
have gone too fust, and admitted as an
accomplished fact what was doomed to be
defeated by the extreme Radicals them
selves. Thero really does appear to be
a little light ahead. All any rational
man could ask of Congress is to declare
that the State of Georgia has failed to
reconstruct herself, and should be re
mauded back to tho tender care of Hie
military, with tho view of giving her an
other trial at reorganization.
Tho South received a stunning blow
irvtbo defeat of Seymour, and it will
hike some time for our people to recover
from it; yet all is not lost. Georgia is
not reconstructed, as was believed, and
the Almighty may intend sho never shall
be; that the Radicals, in their insanity
and judicious blindness, will be used
by Him to overturn Radicalism and de
feat their own pnrposes. Let us-notbe
faithless, but believing.

editor of the News, that this transfer
would prove a death blow to the M,
and B. road, confirmed the prevail
ing sentiment, and all that lias
been written in explanation, lias had
little effect in convincing the public
that tho local did not reflect the i oal
feeling of the City Council.
An investigation of the -situation in
all its bearings, wo arc disposed to
believe, would convince any true
friend of the Gulf Hoad and
of the city of Savannah, that any
change in tlic management of that
work, at this lime, would be inter
preted as a blow aimed at the Macon
and Brunswick road, and would be
exceedingly injudicious and ill-timed.

Cotton—Our Danger.
The Charleston News is alarmed
at llie probable effect the recent rise
in cotton will have npon the planter
fearing that he will fail to derive in
struction from the past, and, ignoring
the reasons why the staplo has taken
such a rise, determine to plant less
grain and more cotton the present
year. The cotton crop t f 1808, say;
the News, has been a Godsend to the
South,
"Wo liave money in abundance, our
credit is rapidly improving, the
chains are broken which bound us
our future is bright with hope. And
yet all this will be nn evil, rather
than a good, if we do not per sever
first fruits we now enjoy.
Our danger is that the planter!

This feeling, however natural,
must conquer or bo undone.
We have made money by the cot
ton crop of 1868, because cotton was
not our first and principal care,
Thero had been two season* of auxic
ty, disappointment and loss, which
forced tlis planter to acknowledge
that- only safety lay in seeming,
at any cost, what bread and meat he
-required. Tho dullest nnd most
wrong-headed could see this 1 necessi
ty, and, as a consequence, the South
produced all the brendstnffs she
needed, the corn crop of South Caro
lina being two million bushels more
than .it was in 1S67. Cotton was a
secondary consideration with the
planter; but the two million and a

present year have brought ns more

White, the negro aud acting Clerk of

Clements (white), the candidate

Something Rich.—The following let
ter indicates what the Northern Method
ists mean when they propose to enlight
en the South on the subject of Christi
anity:
Office New Orleans Advocate, Dec.
20,1868. D. Bennett, Esq., editor of
Planters’ Banner—Sib: Perhaps you
think a Northern Methodist cannot even
be goaded into a fight. I will stand the
venom of yonr pen no longer. I will
fighj you. I will show you that religious
and loyal editors are not cowards. The
Lord of Hosts will stand by me. Yon
must be humbled. The Lord will hum
ble your rebel heart. David fought,
and lie was a man after God’s own heart.
Moses and Joshua fought. And none of
them ever lmd to contend with such
^children of the devil as the rebels of this
country are. You will receive a note
from my friend arranging the details of
our hostile meeting. Respectfully, you*
obedient servant, D. D. Newnan, D. D.”
Columbus Or.than Asylum.—We
are gl:ul this home for little destitute
orphan girls is again open. It was
once an active, care-bestowing friend
to the class for whose benefit it was
instituted, and we trust that it may
soou become so again. No human
beings have greater need of kind care
and judicious direction than father
less and motherless girls. The ladies
who have undertaken the charge are
fully competent to restore the Asylum
to its former usefulness, and in their
efforts to do it should have the aid
and support of all our citizens.—

I would rather havo written that hymn
of Wesley's,
“Jesus, lover of ray son].
Let uio thy bosom fly/*
tluiii to have tho fame of till tho kings
that ever sat cm the eartli. It is more
glorious. It has more power in it. I
would rather bo the author of that hymn
than to hold tho wealth of the richest
man in New York. He will die. He is
dead, and does not know it. He will
pass, after a while, out of men’s
t houghts. What will there be to speak
of him? What will he have done that
will stop trouble or encourage hope?
His money will go to his heirs, and
they will divide it. It is Tike a sfream
divided and growing narrower by divis
ion. And they will die, aud it will go to
their heirs. In three or four generations
everything comes to the ground again
for redistribution. But that hymn will
go on singing until the last trumps bring
forth the angel-band; and then, I think,
it will mount np on some lip to the very
presence of God. Aud I would rather
have written that hymn than to have
heaped up all the treasures of the richest
man on the globe. A man may bo very
useful and influential, and not be rich.

Ihc Instittrre is situated at Montpelier, the
seat of the Once celebrntc-i School, under the
late venerable Bish p iolfot, of Gcoroin.
Tbe location unites important advantages
Worthy of the particular consideration of parents
and guardians. The noted .-alubrity of its cli
mate exempts it from nil fevers und other pre
vailing diseases throughout the most sickly
seasons of the year; its quiet seclusion removes
it from a!l influences that can interfere with the
uninterrupted prosecution of studies, and its ex
tensive and beautiful grouuds afford uttrivailed
opportunities for excrciso and recreation.
Tho Course of Instruction embraces all the
branches of a thorough and finished education.
The English and Classical Departments will be
under the personal instruction of the Rector and
Hie Principal, aided by competent assistant*/
The Department of Music, Instrantcnfal and
vocal, will be m charge of Professor Fedcric
hmichdt. The French Language will be taught
