Southern Patronage ami Abolition.
Mr. Chas. T. Ward is oat in another labored lawyer
looking plea to "The Public," endeavoring to re
concile his “Black Republican" associations with
Southern hostility to this abomination, in all its
Conns. In his bopeleas and reprehensible coarse,

scriptions not In advance, will certainly be stop-
ped or. the 4th June next What, stop your
old weekly subscribers—tho old patrons for
twenty-odd and thirty-odd years of the Georgia
Telegraph—wen who have kept just and true
accounts with the office—stop their papers ?—
Yea, wo must and certainly shall, unless they
pay up in advance, In a general system of this
kind, it is impossible to make exceptions. The
best wc can do, is to giro timely notice, and
then if subscribers fail to heed it, the fault is
their own. They should not blame us. Sure
ly it will make very little difference with them
whether their two dollars arc paid at tho begin
ning or end of the year; and when they know,
that in order to afford them this little credit,
about-one out of three subscribers is enabled
cither through neglect, or intentional fraud, to
get the paper for nothing; they will see that
self-defence compels us to adopt the ctsh system.
And every respectable journal will bo driven
ultimately to the same course, or content itself
with sr.ch patronage as may bo left to it'by the
cash journals. .If, then, wc contemplated no
improvement h. the Tel egraph, every considera
tion oTjustice and poliiy would prompt us to
this step.
But wc are now making a largo outlay, in or
der to place tho Georgia Telegraph on tho high
est possible basis. In a few months, so soon as
the machinery can be completed, the paper will
• be to changed in appearance and arrangement,
that its old patrons will hardly know it It will
be one of the largest papers in tiro world. None
in the South will compare with it in point of
sire, and in other respeets it shall be what wo
can make it But notwithstanding the very
large outlay In tho purchoseofan immense steam
power printing engine, and typographic materi
als for such a paper, as well the heavy cost of
blank paper for such a sheet, it will still bo sent
to subscribers at $2 00 per annum; but mani
festly, it can have no margin for non-payments.
Every string must draw.
The Question Settled.
At tho meeting of the City Council, on Tues
day night, a resolution was passed, directing
the Mayor to appoint a committee from the
Council to confer with the Committees of the
Military Companies in reference to keeping
Camp Oglethorpe in thorough repair, Ao,—
winding up with a declaration, that nothing
was intended by tho resolution to convey the
idea that tho City wished any control of the
grounds. So it decided that the Fair Grounds
are henceforth, as heretofore claimed to be, un
der the guardianship of the Volunteer Compa
nies.
nougherty’s Kail road Switch.
The Atlanta Locomotive of the 20th instant,
thus notices the placing of one of Dougherty’s
Patent Railroad Switches in that Railroad city.
Wc have already introduced this Switch to our
readers, and verily believe that too much cannot
be said in its praise. We are sure that it meets
and obviates every possible danger attending a
Railroad Switch. It cannot be misplaced so as
to throw the cars off the track. The train will
preserve its course, and toko its natural direc
tion, no matter how the Switch is placed. This
contrivance ought to claim the special attention
of ail Railroad managers.
“Dougherty's new switch will prevent a tram
from ruining off tho track, if, by accident, it should
be placed wrong. The efficacy of it was thoroughly
touted iu Atlanta on Saturday loot. A train was
passed back and forth over it, at the rate of twenty
tnilei an hoar, without its having been moved. This
great invention should enrich the inventor, who has
supplied a desideratum equaled only by the safety
vuvt to prevent explosion of the boiler of a steam
engine.
Mr. Dougherty has been, for many years, master
machinist in the alaoon A Western Railroad shop.
Kvery Railroad Company sbonld be supplied with
these switches, without delay.”
High Prices iu Clmrlcstou—A Hard
The Ilcrald of the 10th publishes despatches
from its Washington Correspondent, about the
prospective deficiency of space and food in
t’harleston for tho Democratic - Convention.
That functionary says in the course of the des
patch
“Another gentleman showed me a letter to-day,
which he received from a eltisen of Charleston, to
wlibm he applied lor rooms, with board for himaeif,
wife and son, informing him as follows“I went
to the principal hotels to see what I could do for
you, but all refused positively to have any ladies in
the bouse, as in each hotel drawing rooms, parlors
and balls will be packed with beds and cots, and
•sab occupant will be charged ten dollars per day.
I next went to all the private boarding bouses, and
found them all engaged. Next I went to aeveral
private bouses, and at last I induced a lady to say
she would aocomodate giiu, if you and your wife
will take a bedroom ana let Chariiif sleep, in the
parlor on a nuf*. She will charge yon eighteen
dollars per day for the three. I assure yon you can
not do better if you wish to come. I bare never
seen such an exciting time here as there Is about
the Convention. I board at the-- - House, but

Such a statement bs this about the. price.of
provisions in Charleston is surely incredible.
With acres of beef in Tennessee at from six to
eight cents, of tho best quality, and within forty-
eight hours transportation by railroad, it. is fol

OUH STEAM COMMUNICATION.
The saocest which has attended the various steam
ship Uses now running to this port,bod demonstrated
the problem which is presented in all commercial
transactions, to wit: the question of profit. It would
seem that tho more steamships wo have, the more
business; thus, as it were, building up business for
themselves rather than lessening the income by ad
ditional liu-s. Wo see this assertion proved iu the
New York lim a, to which the secession In steam
tonnage bos added increased profits. Other cities,
viewing with jealously tho immense advantages
which New York has derived from her stesm com
munication with Savannah, have been making ef
forts to eijoy ilmltac benefits by the employment of
similar means. The oitisenaof Boston agitated
steam lines to some southern city, and settled on
Charleston as the southern terminus,- her move
ments, however, have been laggard, and Savannah
will in this, os she has in other things, outstrip her.
On tb« 23d in«t., the S. K. Spalding will sail from
Boston for this port, and test t bo practicability of es
tablishing a permanent line. She is said to bo as

From the New Orleans Bulletin.
Tlie Texas Frontier.
Eventa are hastening on rapidly upon the Rio
Grande. The scroll of the future is written over in
evidently no peace for Mexico yet. The horoscone
disclose! a black and bloody horizon, with streaks
of fire tl ashing up now and then only to show more
vividly the darkness.
Wo have seen it stated that Cortina u an Ameri
can citizen, and if so ho ia both a brigand and u
traitor. So far as the peaca of that part of the
country is concerned, It does not matter whether be
is Mexican or American. He and his gang are ev
idently ready to join any party that promises them
plunder. They have no doubt instigated the sav
ages to harass the frontiers of Texas, as they are
doing, and things have corns to such a pass that Got.
Houston informs the government that war actually
exists on the Rio Grande. The condition will havo
to be accepted at least by Texas. She cannot, she
will not, and the ought not ait idly by and see her
ami invaded, her towns racked, her citizens robbed
and murdered, and her frontier laid waste. If tbe
general government will not protect her she must
and will protect herself. -There is some reason to
believe, however, that the authorities at Washing
ton at last see the necessity of taking action. The
initiatory steps already taken by Texas should be
supported by tbe government, and the forces the for
mer has raised be accepted by tbe latter as part of
the army for tbe chastisement of. the banditti that
have committed ao manv depredations on both sides
of the Rio Grande. They will of course take retugo
lit Mexico, and no doubt join any party there ready
to receive and co-operate with them. Tho trick
ought ntft to prevent their proper punishment.—
There can be little donbt that Cortina and his gang
of out threats hare had the sympathy and co-opera
tion of the Mexican authorities on the other side of
tho river. They have never tried to arrest him ot
to bring him to justice. They are partieeps erimi-
nis with the banditti. The Rio Grande is no barrier
to their murdering operations, and it cannot bo al-

A General Invitation.
A call for a Convention of the “Opposition of
Georgia” at Milledgeville on the 2d day of May
next, is published and addressed to “tho citizens
of Georgia who are opposed both to the mad
schemes of tbe anti-slavery party of the North
and to the abuses and extravagance of the Dem
ocratic party—to all interference by one section
with the domestic institutions of another, wheth
er in the States, or in the Territories, which arc
tho common property of all the States—who be
lieve the constitutional right of the South to a free
enjoyment of the latter, with her property of
every description, both just and indefeasible—
who eschew all sectional political parties as in
imical to tho public tranquility—who reverence
the Constitution and advocate respect and obc-
dienco to all laws passed in pursuance thereof;
-and to the decisions oftho constituted judicial
tribunals of the land.” . ,,
Now—as the democrats of Georgia arc largely
in the majority, and every honest man among
them is embraced in the lerms.of this invitation,
(for wo trust there is no democrat in the State
not opposed -to all “abuses and. extravagance”
in liiS own party equally as elsewhere) let us go
into this movement," meet our opponents in Mil-
lcdgeville aiid vote them over to our side. There
i9-no more use for their organization than'is a
fifth wheel to a wagon, and if we can incorporate
them into the democratic party, by a lit tlo friend-
violence* of this kind, it will save a heap of use
less bother. Go in boys, and bind them over
■by a strong resolution to Support the Charles
ton nomination, which as sensible and patriotic
tnen, we believejthey ought to do.

Tho proposition is to cut a Ship Canal from

and midway between the extremities to exca
vate an immense artificial harbor or “port,”
around which a new city shall bo built, to bo
called Parts and to be adorned with every con

promises are made to the Republic in return for
the "concession of a route and the grant of tho

notice the entire payment of tho public debt of
tho State, even'before tlie Canal is completed.

A WaTxn Locomotive.—According to the Dock-
Port, N. Y„ Courier, Daniel Winer, of that town,
has been for some monthsjengaged in the building of
a "water locomotive," ot which the Courier says a
successful trial has been made. Its main feature is
that of a floating locomotive, which moves upon tho
water tho same as the locomotive on the rail track.
The engine and the wheels are built so as to float,
save the wheels enter the water sufficient ly to pro
pel tho boat forward ns they move. The inventor
claims that a boat constructed on tills plan can bo
propelled with greater ease and faster than tho rail
road engine, and that it is peculiarly adapted to
canal navigation, as in going thirty miles an hour it
would not raise as mnch swell as any ordinary con
structed steamboat would fo going five.
