lfdgeville was somewhat aroused Sat
urday night from its usual equinimity
bv the sudden appearance of a real
live Circus, aud all its appendages, in
our midst, and created no little stir >
by its unlooked for presence amongst I
us. Upon inquiries it turns out to be |
none other than the veritable Robin- 1
son’s show—not yankee Robinson, bur
our old friend A. Robinson, formerly j
of the Robinson & Eldridge Circus, |
who passed through this country in
years gone by with such eclat.
We understand this company has
none through many hardships, having
been both mud and water bound ; their
agent, through inexperience having
run them into a portion of tlie country
destitute of both money and provis
ions. This they battled against till j
they arrived at Alexander and"Lanier’s
Store, where they became surrounded
by water and, although most exhorbi-
tant prices were charged them at
these places, provinder for neither man
nor beast could be obtained, hence the
cause of the sudden arrival. A train
was chartered and Robinson and his
crew so saved front the Philistines.—
He is going to recruit here aud have
Ids wagons, &c., repaired in the Peni
tentiary, and in the meantime will give
us a show, a realgood old-fashioned cir
cus, commencing on this (Tuesday)
evening, and every night during his
stay here. Now let us all turn out and
give this institution a boost—for we
know him of old and guarantee a
good show. Mr. Chas. Covelli has
long been connected with this institu
tion, and is undoubtedly one of the
best clowns in America, and as to ri
ding, when the Robinson family is
around we need say no more, lor veri
ly their name is Legion ; so get out
your dimes and go to the circus.
There will be an exhibition on W ed-
nesday afternoon at 2 o’clock for tbe
benefit of the little folks. .
, tar as iu coul«i see, did ample justice to his own
(wants, and the tempting viands that were so al-
i iutinply spread upon every table. The Cotmnit-
I ;ee, an I the other ladies who aided, are deserving
I nt the highest praise ; and, we are gratified to
know that their most sanguine expectations were
fuliy realized—foor hundred dollars, clear of ex
penses, having been received. No more worthy
olijr-ct coil’d have been presented, and we are truly
glad that our people responded so liberally and
creditably.
We are informed that the Tru?tees and Faculty
of Oglethorpe University, have, in addition to
what they are already doing—offered to furnish
rooms and instruct, free of charge, every maimed
soldier of the iSiate, who wiii come to them. Ail
that remains to be done is to raise the means of
boarding them. Now if the citizens of each coun
ty will, by voluntary contribution, furnish the j Coustui tion, wli
maimed and destitute of their several counties 1
with tbe necessaries of life, the thing will be done, j
We ask will they not do it ? Let the Ladies take
tbe matter in hand and success will surely crown j
tlnir undertaking. At present there are only a
few young men at tlfe University, but numbers |
all over the State are nuxious to come. Sec *.o it ,
Ladies, that they are provided with the means I
Remember they were maimed and disabled for life !
iu wliat most of us siucerely believed a just aud j
righteous cause. Come now to their relief. Itiej
no ordinary case of charity, it is rather a just 1
claim that we are called upon to discharge—a I
debt of honor to be paid. The same class in the !
Federal a; my are liberally provided for by tbe j
government—ours are entirely dependent on vol-j

it in tbe hands of a native Georgian, in wimse in

acquainted, and df whose antecedents you are

If you select honest and intelligent man to leg
islate for you, and put an incorruptible patriot in
your Executive Chair, all will he well: but if your
legislative halls shall be filled by men elected 'o
represent an ignorant, debased, degraded constit
uency. and if your Chief Magistrate shall depend
upon the same power to put him in office, what
other result can be expected but that venality aud
corruption will fill y,.ur offices and be scattered
broadcast over tbe land? Your legislators being
corrupt, corruption and malignity will enact your
laws.
To r.vett such a calamity will require your ut
most exertions, and at this time, and in this crisis,
it is absolutely necessary that all who have not

Atbinta, and to nominate a candidate to be run by
e 1> iiiocr.t'.ic Forty of Georgia in tbe election
to be held on the 20th of next month.
Feeling tbe importance of diffusing early infor
mation among tbe people upon the subject which
- id come before them, th ■ Committee, in the exer
cise of tlie authority vested in them, resolved to
proceed to immediate action, and to indicate the
j policy whic.li, in their judgment, is best adapted
to promote the public good.
Tm o questions are presented to tbe people in the
•-.mu w hich l as been ordered for the 20th of
■ April:
Flirt Shall the paper submitted by the Con?
I vention. as the fundamental law of Georgia, be
ratili d or rij-cted?
> cond. Wi n shall administer the Government
under the new Constitution, if adopted’
Under tho rules and regulations which will
'gov.ern i bo approaching election, and looking to
the necessity of saving the State from the dis-
grace and degradat ion of a domination which will
! carry rum in its train, the policy best adapted to
j promote tho public good will be to vote “against
j the Constitution.”
To enumerate the nnny objections, which may
be legitimately urged against that instrument,
j would swell this address to an unreasonable
length. There is one so prominent and over-
, wln-lmiug tiiat we would be derelict in duty if we
were to pass it by unnoticed.
We call your special attention to the llthSec-
! tion of tbe 1 Ith Article, which is in these words:
j "Should this Constitution be ratified by the peo
pie. and Congress accept the same with any quali
fiearkms or conditions, the government herein
provided for aud the officers elected sl.all never?
ttieless exist, and continue in the exercise of tiieir
s-veral functions, as the government of this State,
so far as the same may be consistent with the ac
tion of the United States iu the premises.”
This geetion presents Georgia in the attitude of
seeking remission into the Union upon any qnali
tication or condition which the present Radical
Congress, bitter and malignant as it is, may pre
scribe If the white people of Georgia can stoop
i !i;ip- so low as to go before a Radical Congress in that
,t sp, r . | attitude, then, indeed, they will 1 ave drained the
cup of humiliation to the very diegs. Lost to
every sense of honor, and recreant to the dearest
interests of his Mate, will lie he who can vote for
a Constitution with such a provision. What
Georgian so base, aud so forgetful of the honor of
ois native State, as to subject our good old Com
monwealth to such humiliation? Let the instru
ment containing the infamous proposition be re
jected with scorn and indignation. Wo use strong
language, but not stronger than the subject de
mands.
If it be not out of place, we especially warn one
class of our fellovr-citizeus, who are opposed to
the Constitution upon principle, and yet feel con
strained t” vote fur it on account of the pecuniary
relief which it will afford them, to beware of the
h. at about to be imposed upon them. They ex
cuse tlnir vote for ratification solely upon the
ground of obtaining relief from an indebtedness
which, on account of the destruction of their prop-
■ rty by tin- Government, ritey are unabie to dis
charge. Those who indulge in hopes of relief
Iron; this source are doomed to he disappointed
Rut their disappointment is uot the worst part of
the matter.
It. is the deception practiced upon them when is
most, reprehensible. This deception is attempted
by men who once stood high in public (aver. One
who as enjoyed, to B greater extent than any
other individual, tho highest honor the people oi
Georgia can bestow, is urgent in hi? appeals to
the people to adopt tho Constitution on account ol
the clause which relieves them from their debts.
Rut be know?, and must know, that if the Con-
stitu'.ion be submitted to Congress with an in vita-
tion to qualify or modify it, as they may see prop
er, it will come back shorn of its relief measure,
and tbe expectations which be so industriously
..ibors to excite will never be realized Those who
may vote for tlie Constitution, under the delusive
hope oi obtaining relief from their indebtedness,
will rush into the net which is spread to catch
ihein: but w hen in, tbe bait w hich lured them ou
will disappear, and they will be entangled in
meshes from wbicli there will be no escape.
There is but one couise for honest men to pur
sue, and that is to reject indignantly the bribe
which is offered for their votes, and with it the
mon who would deceive and betray them.
One c-ther objection to the adoption of the Con-
sfiiution and the government it is intended to or
ganize, we beg leave to urge, and that is the heavy
expense it will entail upon the State.
It may bo safely affirmed that if the new gov
ernment shall go into operation according to the
provisions tf the proposed. Constitution, it will,
upon a moderate estimate, cost the State not less
than $3,lH)0.l(HI.
Why throw thi* heavy burden upon the people
in tl" I. present impoverished condition? Why do
it, when tin re is no actual necessity for it? Why
the enormous expense for substituting a new Con
stitution in the piace of one already iu operation,
and with Iiich tbe people are content? Why must
;t be done? The correct answer is.it is te be done
to iucrease tbe number of voters, and to give the

PARIS FAMUIOXM.
The Paris correspondent of the New York
Journal of Commerce thus writes of the fash- I
Extravagance, excontrieity and indelicacy are
the prevailing tastes. At tbe last bail at Tuil-
eries one dame wa? covered with peacock's eyes,
eolffare as well as the gown; another was drip
ping with sea weeds; they floated around her in
such abundance that laces and ep.-iuletts were at
every moment entangled in the wavy sea grasses,
much to the, convenience of her neighbors The
vogue of chignon? for the colffsre is discarded
for evening dress ; tbe hair is arranged extremi ly
high, and on the summit are perched flowers and
jewels, especially those gathered together in tbe
form ,of butterflies, beetles, and other ngly in
sects. A beautiful English woman, presented to
their majesties by LorJ Lyons, bad tbe courage
and good taste to brave the fashion by wearing
her hair in plain bandeaux in front and a Grecian
roll at the back ; the only ornament was a string
of pearls waving through tbs rolls of glossy black it a y j? >r o
hair. She seemed to be a magnificent antique,
brought baek tc shame tbe degradation of modern
art.
The devotees of fashion are eagerly abeting the
Empress in her attempt to revive the old fashion
ed paniers, aud the discarded crinoline is recalled
(with tiie addition of an extra hoop, too,) to aid
in sustaining these new appendages. Few things
are more nmrvelons in tlie annals of fashion than
the rapidity with which in Paris, at least, one
color or one shape seems to become universally
adopted and so suddenly to be endowed with the :
power of suiting all shades of complexion or va
rieties of figure Our fair Empress, whom every
color suits, and who looks well under any chan
ge?, however fantastic, of the fashions, has only
to adopt a mode for tha whole female world to
follow in her wake. So now not only the youug
and tlie sylpbhke, but the middle-aged and the
stout apoit pauiers; the latter rendering then.selves
absolutely ridiculous in a custumo w hich reijuiies
to be w jrn with a'l the gra-o and eas-,for which
her Majesty is so distinguished, to render it pre
sentable.
