€\t (Srorp Jtraft, iT. I. HALL, EDITOR. TllO MAST ON, G A., DEC. 9,1860. On this day begins the career of the Georgia Herald) and with this issue we make our first appearance as editors. It is our purpose, as has already been announced, to publish a weekly paper which will be in every particu lar acceptable to the people. Politically, we are allied with what is at present known as the Democrat ic Party ; and we claim to be purely Southern. But while we will write and speak freely of political meas ures which may claim attention, we will make no quarrel with those who differ with us; for it is our purpose to conduct our paper in a dignified and becoming manner, with a view to do good; and shall concede to those who may at times differ with us the same honesty of purpose and purity of mo tive which we claim for ourselves. In pursuing this course for our paper, we hope to make it a first class political weekly. We are sorry, in this, our begin ning, to be unable to say that the po litical condition of our State is en couraging. Far from it. The recent news from Washington confirms our worst anticipations as to the future of Georgia. Tbe President in his message indi cates very clearly what the policy of Congress will be towards Georgia. — We will be required, unconditionally, unless the question can in some way be compromised, to reseat the negro members of the Legislature, and adopt the 15th amendment. With this state of affairs staring us in the face, it behooves us, as a people having the good of our coun try at heart, to do all we can to pre vent the utter destruction of our State government. We don’t pretend to say what others should do ; but we do say, if we were left to direct matters, we should at once advise the members of the Legislature who fill the positfons of the expelled negroes, to resign (*& onee, and allow anew election. We would advise them not to hold on a day longer ; for if they hold on they will either force the Legislature to declare their former action void, turn out the sitting mem bers, and reseat the negroes ; or Con gress will, by legislation, authorise the Governor to call together the original members elect, and exclude not only those who occupy the places of the negroes, but also exclude those who are ineligible under the differ ent amendments. This course will put the Legislature completely under the control of a certain poirical com bination, the existence of which is well known, and then the very worst results may be expected. We think it best for the members to resign, for then an election would be bad to fill the vacant scats —the 15th amend ment would be adopted, if thought, advisable ; and in this way, w r e are informed, and are inclined to believe, the wrath of the political gods would be appeased. But if this course does not satisfy the powers that be, then let them do the work of reseating the negroes. Never let the Georgia Legislature review aud reverse its own decision on the subject. They may with propriety declare negroes who are hereafter elected to seats in the General Assembly eligible, but they certainly cannot, with any res pect ior themselves, declare who have been ex^q 1 p ° . . cannot bolieve, with our present information, (of which we are not at liberty to speak) that Con gress will require them to do so, if the course we have suggested is per.. sued. In a short article like this, it is im possible for us to review and discuss the issues that are likely to be press ed upon us, but will promise to do 30 in our next. PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE. Congress- met on the sth instant. The President sent in his mes sage, which is a rather remarka ble document. After glorifying the Yankee nation on its greatness, he lets into the Reconstruction business after the style in the following para graph. Grant seems to be in favor of attending to business ; and his Radical friends we all know, have been anxiously awaiting his decision to let into- us with another dose of Reconstruction; so we may look out for breakers. They are doubtless close at hand. We can either reseat the irrepressible nigger and adopt a few more amendments, or go into the reconstruction mill again. Who can tell which is best. Os Georgia, Grant makes the following mention : The work of restoring State Governments I loyal to the Union, of protecting and foster- : ing free labor, providing means for paying I -toe interest on the publio debt has received ' amplo attention from Congress. Although ! vour efforts have not met with success in j ail particulars that might have been desir- j er ; }et on the whole they huvo been more i successful than csuld have been reason ib’y | anticipated. Seven States which passed or- ; (finances ofsecession have hteen fully reetor- 1 €jd to their places in the Union, and the ‘ eighth, Georgia, held an election at which she ratified her constitution, republican in form, elected a Governor, members of con gress, a State Legislature, and other officer* required. The Gvoruor was leetalled, ar.fi I the Legis’aaorc met and performed alt acts then required ©ffefamn by the recoastruchon acts of congress. Subsr qwently, however, in violation td tbe constitution which they had just ratified—as since decided by tbe Supreme Court of the State they unseated the colored membefo cl the tegislafcure, and admitted to swate some members whe are disqualified by the third clause of the XlVth A mend meat, a® article which they themselves had c -ntrlbuted bo rai’.fy Under these ciroumstanefiß, I woald sub »it to ymi whether it would not be wise without delay to auaet a law authorizing the Governor of Georgia to convene the members originally elected to the Legisla ture, requiring each to take the -orth provi ded by tbe ree< nstrac ion acts, and none to he admitted who ere ineligible under the third clausa of the XlVth amendment. N<wiCß,—After this issue the Übralb will be published on Saturday. Fitch, the great whang doodle of the Griffia Star, wear noth, after the billow ing style, for hie first born machine We deeply sympathise with him in his great bereavement ; bat trust that hie new l*ant- Hng will soon fill the vacant place in bis affection, and prove still a greater bles sing to him thou tbe first. If it dees not, well then he can eome over occasionally and slobber and blubber over his old Wash' iogton II >e to his heart’s content. Bat hear him : Good-Byb.—On Thursday lost we bade farewell to our old Washington Hoe Hand Press. She has gone to Tbomaston. Her pi *oe ib vacant, where for four long years she has served the public and ourselves. — Our heart is full of grief at the separation, ' hut our necessities required foster work, so we parted with one of the truest friends we ever had. The new "machine” stands «p in a’l its g’ory and pride—stares ns in the face and scorns the old affair, bat we shall never love her with that "first love” which bound us to the hand Press. When dark grim visaged war had swept away the last vestige of worldy goads, when barefooted children terned up their innocent faces for protection I and support, when desperation goaded the i heart, when hope was almost shutout ; this | little pieee of iron came to our relief. Si lently but faithfully she did her work. She never got out of order, never conapleined ; she brought us the greenobacks, put cloth ing upon the backs and bread into the stom achs of the little ones ; and to—day when she is gone, we feel lonesome and almost hate the gaudy painted creature that has u •iurped her throne. But though "lost to ! sight” she will ever be to “memory dear.” And may five hundred lizzards and a mil lion scorpions crawl into the breeches and torment the wretch who shall ever dare to prostitute to base uses our dear old "Wash ington iioe.” TEIJEGRAPHIC NEWS.

Washington, Nov. 20.—The Cubans in tend to be actively at work on the recog nition question when Congress meets. They are gettiug up a lot of memorials fur that purpose, and intend to present a mon ster one, containing twenty thousand sign atures, the first week of the session. Eigh teen thousand of tho names have been al ready obtained. They have also prepared documents, etc., to lay before the House Committee on foreign affairs, to show that the republic of Cuba is a bonafide govern ment, with a flag and seal and has in good faith abolished slavery. Kaf Virginia and Vermont hare both ratified the Fifteenth Amendment. There were only two iu the Virginia Legislature that were against the ratification ot the 15th Amendment, a nd one of these was a color ed Repub’ican Senator, who declined voting because in his opinion he believed tho Legislature to be illegal. Saida male advocate of women’s rights, ‘‘When I am in a crowded car, and a lady nomes in, 1 think it the duty of some other man to get up and give her his seat I look around tho car to see if any man in the car looks like making a move in in that direction, and when I see them all keep their seats, 1 hide my face behind my newss paper, and blush for my sex.” Belle Botd.—lt is known that this res markable lady is now au inmate of a Cali fornia insane asylum. She is said to be raving mad. A Pittsburg paper says of her career : Fighting in male- attire, at her father’s side, in the rebel array, running the block ade, perverting the faith ol a naval officer, courted, married, divorced, married again and separated from her second husband, actress, lecturer, and social reformer—such was that widely known female. Belle Boyd. Her feet and brain had no rest; buffeted from pillar to post, with no guide nor supo port but her own instincts and fiery them passions we cannot admire, but we must pity this strange soul, aud be astons ifhed at its wild, romantic career.

Upson Superior Court —November lerm, 1869. — We, the Grand Jurors chosen and sworn for the 2d week of the November Term of Superior Court of Cpsen County, respectfully submit the following sugges- ; tione, to wit : Ist. We have considered Pie susfgestian i of the establishment of a Peer House in tbe County for the benefit es Paupers, and in our judgment it would inure both Vo the interest of County and the ppupeve. We, therefore, recommend, tlxit about one (I@@) hundred acres land be purchased, and that a suitable number of comfortable cabins be built thereon as soou as praefieabk). 2d. We suggest that about one thousand dollars of tho County Bonds that are struck, but sot signed, be signed by the proper officers, and put m oiroobvtiohn, and that all the mafeilLneefi County Bonds now in circulation, be burnt as first as Ihey can be redeemed. 3d. We regret that wo sonant n<gree with the Grand Jury of tbe first week as to ike improvement in tbo nvarak of our County; for recent developments vadioate very clearly to our minds that there are quite a number of citizens, irrespective of eelur, wbo show qaitean indisposition to have t-be criminal laws enforced. We are forced to this conclusion whoa we see men came into open court and swear to \ ositive fiwtis, and in lees than six months thereafter, forget ar deny having ever mode such statements; and griev ns as it may be, we tear it is true that some of those who we have here tofore regarded as oer best citiaeog, are conniving at such a state of things. 4ih. We would also recommend to tbe Legislature of Georgia, tbe importance of changing tho statutes so as to make larceny from the bouse and simple larceny, where property stolen amounts to twenty dollars, a felony ; and the penalty tor horse “steal ing shall be a capital offence. We extend to his Honor Judjje Gruewe, and Capt. John I. Ilall, Solicitor General pro. tern., oar thanks fur their patience and kindness to oar body. JAS. W. ATWATER, Foreman. James U. Hays, David 0.

By the Court. JOHN I. II ALL, Sol. Gen. pro. tern. A true extract from the Minutes. 11. T. JENNINGS, C. S. C. THE COTTON SUPPLY AND TIIE FU TURE. The Industrial and Commercial Gazette, says : "The world’s *upply of eotton is a million of bales short of tbe demand, and for a series of years the increased pioduc> tion can only keep pace with the annually increasing supply. • There is, therefore, no immediate proipect of any material redue* tion in the price or the great staple.” These facte assure the future of the cot ton planter aid the progress and the pros perity ol the South. We have but to make wise improvement of them, personally and socially, to rebuild our shattered fortunes and reestablish our social and political condition. We must use not only personal energy and enterprise but prudence and a thrifty economy. It matters not what v\ ealih pruJuu* if we squander it all.— We shall be no better off at the end of the year. Then, too, it is quite as important that we should use a wise social economy. Ev erybody can *ee that if he employs tbe cap ital and labor of others to do that for him which he can better do for himself, he is losing and not making money. Just so it is with communities. If they buy from abroad and import what cam be more eco nomically produced at home, they are vio lating ali sound business principles, and cannot expect to acqnire wealth. This is the case with us in respect to a great many of our supplies of manufactured articles. We should produce them at home instead es buying them from abroad. Our furniiure—a good deal of our clothing—farm and domestic utensils—our stock—the ma« nipnlation of our fertilizers—our bagging— iron ties, and a great many other manufac tures of iron, wood, wool, cotton, leather, oko., can be more cheaply produced at home than imported from abroad, and we can never progress in wealth as we ought to do nntil we learn to practice sound economy in this particular. The Southern people as a mass, are now buying these things in Europe and the North, while they are at the same time supporting in idleness thousands who would he’ willing to labor in the production of these commodities if Southern capitalists would but give them the opportunity..— Thus, we may say, we really pay two pri ces for the same product. A wise sslfishe ness demands that we should look into this matter and provide a remedy just so soon as our pecuniary condition will admit.— The planter who is accumulating a surplus should be willing to invest it in manufac tmring enterprises. If his wagons, ploughs, hanging, ties, harness, cotton and woollen goefis, etc., can be made by heftne labor, mow unemployed, they have really cost the country little of nothing ; but if paid lor abroad and imported here, while Georgians are left to live in idleness, their cost ought to be reckoned at a hundred per cent, above market priee. It is time we should think of these things.—Telegraph &. Mess enger. What Horses Bring-. —Horses of great reputation have always commanded great prices. At Newmarket in 1805 1 , a bay colt, by Pipato, sold for $75,000. In the same year a two year old colt by Beningbor ough, a two year old by Volunteer, and a three year old filly by Sir Peter, were sold tor $75,000 each. For the celebrated horse &hark, $50,000 were refused, and O’Kelly declined to accept an offer of SIOO,OOO for his stallion Eclipse. Tradition says that the Duke of Devonshire refused for Flying Childers the weight of the horse in gold, A few years ago, the great sire Stock well could not be bought for SIOO,OOO, and we presume that when CTladiateur was carry* ing everything before him on the English turf, the Count de La Grange would not have parted with him for $150,000. Com ing to America, we find that nearly $15,- 000 were paid for Lexington, and that his son, Kentucky, was sold for $40,000. Mr. Alexander refused $50,000 for Asteroid, Kentucky’s half brother, aDd Norfolk, another half brother, was valued at $40,• 000. Mr. Bonner paid $35-,000 for Dexter, and offers SIOO,OOO for ooe that can equal Dexter’s wagon time. —Turf, Field & Farm. \VHOLBSOM£NEt*S OF WORK. Tbwte* fourths of the diseases peculiar te wtmen, whether married or single, may fee traeed to want of proper and regular mental aecupatfbn. The empty life led by mast women who boast themselves to belong t# the beeter class of society is noly thus the dullest of all existence, hut the most dangerous, The mind, for want of proper direction which the regular performance of some sscial duty alone can give, either turns in uDon itself, and is terkured by its own presence, or taking some devious way, is lost ioroyer. Hysteria, insanity, and the various disorders, the symptoms of whiah are vague and uncertain, but the ctnseQuences sure and fatal, owe their orU gin in most oases to the c«»mni«n practice of bringing up our young ladies, as they delight "to a all themselves, to do nothing,— The remedy ffer this prevalent female India base is not to be found among any of these htifeadaeuad apologies for work devised by fashion. Crsshot or worsted work will do nothing toward invigorating or reviving body or soul. A. thorough change in the views of parents is required. They must afcandoa the idea that their female children unlike their male ones, are to he brought up to do nothing. They skould impress their daughters as their seas at an early period with the xeoessifcy of having a certain .vo eofeioi in life, and edaoate them according ly. If Tom has a passion lor hardware, and is to bo gratified, we earn eao see no reason why Mary, with a fondness for dry goods, should not have the chance of beiag mdalged. That there should be no mistake as to oar opinion on so grave a subject we hero deliberately advise all parents to bring ■ p thair daoghters to some occupation or other, whether it be one of trade, eon* merce, the professions, art, soieoce or lit eratore. Whatever it may he it will eero toinly not render the woman less fit fer any future maternal er household doty, haws ever great or absorbing it may prove. The tone of mind acquired by a systematic dis cipline for a fixed purpose is oondmMve to the proper performance of all work. Os this we are at least assured —that there would be fewer delicate, suffering women, if they eoold he persuaded to believe with ns ia tho “wholesomoness of work. v A SXIySIBUC CHK.JL. Some years since, a young lady, remark able for her maturity and good sense, daugh ter of a distinguished lawyer, and a moms her of Congress from Worcester county, was placed at a young ladies’ boarding school in the neighborhoo lof Boston. Her unaffected manner and sptightliaess won the affections of the young ladies and their kind offices, until one day they inquired the occupations of their fathers. Our young friend, perceiving the drift of their inquir ies, gave them to understand that her fa ther was a shoemaker, when many of them were struch with horror at her vulgar orb gin, and a change took place in their con duct towards her. She, however, though fully understanding them, remained quiet. After awhile, the father of the young lady visited the school. As he was a goel looking man, and us they observed the principal and others treating him with such deference and respect, the scholars were led to inquire of their instructress who he was and what was bis business : and on being told that he was the father of Miss 11.. and that he was a member of Congress, they were filled with amazement, and im mediately made attempt to renew their ah tentions as formerly but it was too late. — She looked upon their conduct with such contempt that they were obliged to keep a respectable distance, while those who trea ted her kindly, without regard to her fas tfeer’s supposed occupation, were ever af tex wards Lior favorites. A TWO-HUNDRED MILE RACE. A novel race occurred over Bay view Park Course, San Francisco, on the 31 of October. It was a contest of endurance in the saddle between two young men, named Neil Mo wry and William Walsh. The stake was SI,OOO a side and a gold medal. The distance to be run was two hundred miles. Each man was allowed twen* ty horses, with no reserve. The con test began about nine o’clock, a. m.,' and was finished in less than nine hours. Up to the one hundred and tenth mile the chances favored Walsh, and the score stood : Walsh, 110 ; Mowry, 107 1-2. After that, sever* al of Walsh’s horses shied and broke, and the severe exercise of mounting and dismounting, with sufficient rap~ idity began to tell upon him, and Mowry gained until the one hundred and twentieth mile, when the score stood even, and he completed his two hundred miles in eight hours fifty eight minutes. His rival accomplish ed the same number of miles in nine hours fifteen seconds. The horses were of varied stock. Sporting men regarded the race, under all the cin cumstances, as the greatest ever run on this continent.
