THE ELECTION IN AIOISTA. Augusta, April 24.—The counting of the votes is progressing slowly. It will be several days before the result is officially known. It is believed that the Radicals have carried this District, electing Prince to Congress and giving a majority for the Constitution and for Bullock. The Democrats claim five out of the seven members elected to Congress and a majority of the Leg islature. The Republicans are confi dent of Bullock’s election and the Democrats ditto of Gordon, butull this is conjecture. The official count will show a close vote. The negro man bayouetted by a soldier in the row yesterday, was buried this afternoon, and was followed to the grave by a large procession of men and women. All “ serene ” now. WELL DONE, MI’.TITER. We have great gratification! in an nouncing, upon the authority of a pri vate dispatch received in this city last oightfrom a prominent citizen of Amer icas, that Capt. John A. Cobb, has certainly been elected one of the Rep resentatives from this county, and that Gordon will have a majority at the close of the polls. "Well done, Sum ter, we say again. We send hearty thanks and greeting to the good men no matter what the color of their skins who have done this glorious work. Journal Messenger. Second Baptist Church.—The ser vices of laying the corner stone of this Church took place as announced, on Tuesday, in the presence of a large crowd. Rev. B. L. Blitch opened the exercises with a prayer, after which Mr. Wills followed with a very able and appropriate address, adapted to the occasion. Mr. Warren, also, addressed the as sembly, making an appeal for aid in completing the building. A good ma ny 5 and 10 dollar bills were contribu ted; but we understand that about S1000 are yet lacking to complete the structure. When we consider how much such a church is needed in that neighborhood, and how useful this is likely to prove, we are constrained to hope that the good and benevolent people of Macon will lend a little more timely assistance, and aid the strug gling band to finish the work so auspi ciously begun. The house will be very handsome ornament to that part of the city, and quite an accommodation to the citizens of that entire neighborhood. Telegraph. Radical Justice and Logic.—It is en tirely right to turn a man out of office and employment—in the Freedmen’s or Registry Bureau, for instance—for talking on the Democratic side, but a great crime for a Democrat to discharge an employee for voting on the other side, of which the military commission will take retributory notice !

Parents, teach your children a useful trade. No matter how great your wealth may be, you have no sure guaranty of possession for your chil dren, or if you had, you have no secu rity that they will use it wisely. The best fortune you can leave them is a good trade; wealth and friends may fail, but a useful calling in life is an ever ready friend in need. Nor can you begin too soon. Delays are dan gerous, in the individual as iu the State; and if you would have a master crafts man, do your work early and well. And don’t imagine that trades are for boys alone. Give the girls a chance to battle with the world as well. The time may come when they may be thrown on their own energies for sup port; then what a guardian will a good trade be. One of tlie greatest evils society has to contend with at the present day is, that so many of our boys and girls are being brought up without any def inite idea or purpose ot life.
