TUK ROMANCE OF IUK TIMES. AN ORIGINAL POEM. For ths Georgia Ilersld.] Where are the stars, plumes, titles, might one say, That marked with splendor chivalry’s ar ray f This land for civil equality renown’d. With these features of pageantry is crown'd. The present e’en in its heraldic dow’r, Vies with the past in its full pride and pow'r. Not by hereditary right restrain’d, N -r rarely by plebeian merit obtain’d, Titles in thick profusion bestud the land Like stars M Iky Way or Orion’s band. Each aspirant may a title passes To swell his merit, adorn his address. Can you in art fiddle-bow deftly use, Or w.th slight-of-hand show, the crowd amuse, With Professor, title of classic grace, You may your name pompously preface. Should you choose military epithet, Tin/ you may have never worn epanletie, You may Captain dub yourself, or Colonel With its stiff, formal, curt, abrasive swell. In this land which holds men equal and free, This porohant prevails to that degree, I’d vagaries of modern etiquette, Lawyers are dubbed with soldier’s soubri quet ; Tho’ they’ve not fouuht on fields with carn age rife Nor serried ranks led to deadly strife, Their waving plume in the van flashing 'far, ’Mid storm of battle, glory’s guiding Slfcf Naught of conflict have they seen save de bate, W’hy then thus titled it is hard to state, Unless perchance they use their tongues so well, For pre-eminence they are called Colonel. Nor scan we this enlighten’d age in vain, For arts of glamour, superstitions train, Which romantic minds fondly deem to cast Enamoring spell o’er the gloaming past. They who practice them, chill not with terror As Macbeth’s greans or the with of Endor ; Or ride us others on broomsticks i' the air, Or with necromantic art charms prepare, Or curse pronounce, that like dark ban of fate Wither souls and bodies of those they hate. No! rap 1 rap \ rap lon table, floor or wall— Lu 1 the spirits throng—-’tis tbeir signal call, And medium, as Mercury’s gloomy wand, From realms unseen evokes the ghostly band. But they weave not their spells of witchery, Through aid of cloven-footed Majesty. As Morse’s wires they but conquer timt and space, Features of absent friends discern and trace, Or kindly converse hold with spirit-band, And messages transmit from unseen land. Though revelations they make full of awe, Still not obnoxious to old witches’ law. Yet in those days of New England’s rigor, They'd not have escaped its code of terror, Nor medium deem’d mere antoraaton, That moves only as it is moved upon. [to BE CONTINUED ] JBiSffilflDfOßS. WILL PLANTERS BE WISER? From the Mobile Tribune.} What will the planters do this year’? is the question we hear most frequently asked by persons taking an interest in the future condition of the South. That this the foundation class, on whose labors and success we are dependent for all genuine re* cuperation, of solid improvement, will continue energetic in their efforts to make available the productive re* sources of the Southern States, none are disposed to question. But with what judgment will their plans be ad opted, their efforts directed ? That is the question, and the question of no mean impoitance. We have fail ed to meet an intelligent planter who did not unhesitatingly express the the conviction that the grain crop was of more unquestionable impor tance than was the cotton crop for insuring the pecuniary independence of this now impoverished land. There is, and can be, no difference of opin ion among well informed sensible men on this subject; yet very many well informed men continue year after year practically to contradict their expressed belief in this truth. They say, and we all concur with them in saying, that the cotton crop should be limited to, and solely constitute the surplus production—the actual increase of wealth to the producers. If planters would strictly conform their practice to this approved policy they would insure to themselves more of home comforts, more independence, fewer anxieties, and more of assured # » -T* - * **'■* r • . annual increase of fertune. Cotton is not a necessary of life, not eren an absolute necessary ot commt*rce. Corn is an essential to life, and the planter who is without corn, but has cotton, roust dispose of his cotton at any price he can get, in order to pay for the corn any price the holder may choose to ask for it. A man may live on with his back naked, but only for a limited period with his stomach empty. Corn, then, is a prime nec essity—man’s animal organization makes it so—it is the Almighty Maki er’a ordinance, and it cannot, with out incurring penalties, be set aside and made to take the place of second ary importance. This is another exemplification of the fact that to do right is always the only safe policy. The departures from this confessedly wisest practice by so many, if not by the great ma jority of our planters, can only be accounted for by referring it to that innate selfishness which is ever prompting man to maKe the public subservient to his individual interest. Each man hopes that his friends and neighbors and all other men will closely adhere to the rules of sound policy and so limit their cotton plant ing as to insure heavy crops of grain and of necessity a limited yield of ootton, while he alone will by his special sharpness in making the re verse rule his practice, have a large crop of cotton to dispose of at the enhanced prices, with the proceeds of which he can easily supply his corn wants and at nominal rates. Nor does his disappointment, year by year, dispel his vain delusion. He clings still to the hope that he will some lucky year prove to have been snorter than his fellows. Unfortun ately for }iun, he belongs, has belong ed, and we fear will continue to be long to the heavy majority side of our southern planters. Either thl? short-sighted selfishness, or a culpa ble ignorance of their true interests, or else a love of slavish dependence, has kept, and we greatly fear will continue to keep, our Southern plant’ ers in the position of bailiffs to rich and exacting northern and western proprietors. There is and there can be no independence for the South so long as we are dependent on other sections of country for the simple necessaries of life. To no other one cause are we more indebted for the present state of humiliation and deg radation than to our having pursued this same foolish and disgraceful pol icy before the war. We had not the means within ourselves of support during a protracted contest, and so not even the reckless expenditure of life could save us from being starved into submission. Are we demented, that we can be taught nothing by our calamitous reverses and scourgings? Must some fatality cause us eagerly to rush again into our old political party enthrallment, and to make haste to resume our old commercial dependence,? Will nothing teach us common sense —the common sense of how boot to live ? We again repeat, that he is the best citizen Who most judiciously controls his own house hold and most successfully provides all the requisites for living independ' ent of the world without. Substantial houses, secure enclosures, full crops of grain, strict attention to stocks of horses, hogs, and cattle, moderate crops of cotton, the wise application of surplus means to the development of the resources of the country —to the working of mines and building of manufactories, and roads, and found eries, and with still more strict atten* tion to intellectual and moral culture, will most surely put us i.& the way of of retrieving our lost fortunes and for making straight our badly warped reputation. The Best Definition Yet —The Telegraph and Messenger says, some chap whose head is exceedingly “level,” thus defines the thing called “Reconstruction “Which is it that’s the best government the world ever seed ? Georgy ought to have found out by this time, having run some fourteen or more since Dixie went up : First, territory ; second, provisional; third, no government; (just sloshin’ round loose, like a stray dorg ;) fifth, civil and military mixed; sixth, in the United States one-fourth ; seventh, plum, out, &c., &c., down to the four teenth—which started crut to run a sorter doubled barred nxin’— that is, civil when it suits, military when it don’t, and it suits and don’t about eYery new moon.” - • Cota in the Treasury, SJI2-250 f 000, including $37,000,000 of coin certificates. 0 urrency badU^e > $lO, 260* 000. GEORGIA. PROSPECTS IN CONGRESS. The Chrunicl and Sentinel of Thursday, says it has seen private “advices from Washington which state that the House will probably provide for a purely military provis ional goverment of the State until next November, when an election for members of the Legislature, for State officers, and for Congress will be pro vided for. We have seen a copy of the bill which will be offered in the House by a Republican member— one who is disgusted with the knavery and rascality of Bullock and Blod gett —and which will receive a strong support from the more honest and respectable of their party. This bill declares the government of Georgia provisional, and provides that the General-in Chief of the Army of the United States shall appoint an officer of the army, of a rank not less than that of Colonel, to be Provisional Governor of the State. Direct the Military Commander of the District to appoint, from officers of the army, a General Superintendent of the State Road, a State Treasurer and a Controller-General, and turns o'ver the whole machinery of the State Government to these officials thus selected from the officers of the army. It also provides for the holding of a State election in November next for members of the Legislature, members of Congress and for a Governor and State officers.” The same paper says with refer ence to the feeling at Atlanta : We have just received a letter from a friend in Atlanta, which states that the Georgia Agency affected to believe that the Cessna Bill will be adopted, and that Bullock and his gang pretend that they will be en tirely satisfied if the Cessna Bill is adopted* The Cessna bill continues tie Agency in office till 1872. We don’t believe it can pass. We believe Bul lock is virtually beaten, already, and has made up hiS mind to do his do towards ruining the Stat* and pun ishing the white people, between now and next November. Let no man, woman, or child give him the least chance to brew fresh deviltry at Washington. He would give a month’s draw on the State Road, just now, for an “outrage” —a good, fat, horrible outrage —a half dozen loyal men Ku Kluxed, and afterwards skinned, and then broiled on the coals, then crucified and finally thrown into a pond as they are treat ed in North Carolina—according to Holden. It is true his Atlanta mil) may manufacture a doZeit of these lies a day, and Forney may print them at so much a line, but Bullock is pretty well known about Washing ton, and he would have to produce the proof. Thanks to the unscrupu lousness of the hired defarners and assassins who have been slandering and stabbing Georgia around the Capital for the last three or four months, these outrages have to be proved now. Even the Radicals who are most friendly to them, are tired of being gulled by these miserable creatures. —Telegraph and Mesien 9er - . , The Chronicle and Sentinel gives the following occount of the arrest of Norris, Terry’s sheriff of warren county, and the cause thereof: On M onday night Norris was ar rested by the officer in command of the United States soldiers stationed in Warrenton, on a charge of having received bribes from several citizens of the county. As soon as he was arrested he was placed in confine ment, and the case reported to Gen. Terry at Atlanta. It is said that several citizens of the county had, in order to avoid ar rest on false grounds by the sheriff, made up a purse and given it to Nor ris, an condition that he would let people alune. It is charged that Norris received the money, and in consideration thereof proclaimed peace with the inhabitants. The bribes which he i« charged wi£h har ing received were large—amounting altogether to nearly, it not quite, $7, ObCK About $3,200 of this amount was in cash—-the rest, about $2. was in promissory notes given by citizens of the county. The fellow’s lust for money seems to have been insatiable, and one or two parties Were bled very heavily. It IB said that one planter paid him $1,500 cash, and that another gave him SBOO cash. Rumor rays that tho Federal soldiers under Norris are not above suspicion, and that they otily made the arrest because the af fixir was leaking out, and they were afraid it would be heard of at head auarterf and an inreetigation be oik wsd C• ! * MONUMENT OVEK THE GRAVE 0 Y GENERAL T. J. JACKSON. It is generally known, that soon af» ter the death of Gen. Jackson, the Stonewall Brigade obtained from Mrs. Jackson the privilege of erecting a moument over his remains. The amount raised was lost in 1365, and the sad reverses of the country have prevented the completion of their patriotic and loving purposes. Seven years have passed since our General tell, and we now ask you to unite with us in a suitable memorial ot love and respect; one that more than all others meets with the cordial approbation of Mrs. Jackson.

She is employed in telegraph offices, and if not yet elevated to the bench, or permitted to move in the “gold ring,” she can henceforth, by a late decree, take out her diploma as a surgeon, an M. D., or both. France, that wants all change effected by the magic wand of Prospero, is just now “talking over” the position of the woman question. In no other country in th? world, has Woman so much influ ence, ana excepting in outward forms and ceremonies, so respect as in tliis. She is quick, full of tact, and natural intelligence, and the fashion seems to tend to restore her to the power she possessed in the Seven teenth Century. She had Iloiisseau at her feet, and she was the only idol that great iconocl *st, Voltaire, spar ed. It is Dumas fils that ha3 opened up the matter. lie does not, like the knights of old, enter the lists With “My God, my King, and my Lady,” on his banners, lie scouts the claim for her equality with man —but as there is some 60ul of good ness in things evil—he thinks her utility is rather bent when she plays Somewhat the role of a vampire. Gentle reader, don't start, he will unsay all this to-morrow, and has written some of the most pathetio appeals on behalf of the frail sex. Musset ought not to be overlooked in the debate. He wrote, years ago, that men wore liars and hypocrites, women perfidious and artificial, and that the most holy arid sublime thing in life, was the union of these imper fect and frightful beings. Different in aptitudes, instincts and dosires, they are equal only in their faults. The man has preserved the vices of the tyrant, and women, the cunning of the slave—one thing ennobles them—elevates them above them selves—love. Interesting to Baj»tibt.— The Baptist Convention now in session in Louisville, represents 7<)0,000 members, covering an ar-a extending from Maryland to Texas, and from Virginia to Wisconsin. The Baptists of the UmteU States include 728 associations, 15,143 churches, and 8787 ordained ministers. They have 27 male colleges, 14 theological seminaries, and many female colleges, and publish 45 peri* odicals and papers. The Southern Baptist in May, 1845, in Augusta, Georgia, formed the “Southern Baptist Convention.” This grew out of abolition proclivities of the Northern Bap tists. The relations between tha two now are very friendly. The Seuthern Assooia-: tion is very prosperous. Tire Ordinart.— We understand thaV Mr. Flenery S.
