New and Improved Press.—The land-
Bomcst and most effective piece of machinery
that we have seen for many a day, is a new
Press, for cotton, hay, wool, etc., that has just
been invented by Mr. Mills, ot tlio A f mcub
I in ul n ~ •—;* work, and tlie
comparativj cheapness of cost, will likely
give it precedence over all other presses now
in use. It cau bo adjusted to the running
gear of a common Cotton Gin and w irked
with a band, or kept apart and operated by
hand, two strong men being ample fi r the
purpose. Sir. Mills has just finished Ids
model, which is on a principle entirely new,
and will take it to Washington forthwith for
the purpose of securing a patent.
Regarding this invention os a most impor
tant one, chiefly to tho planting community,
wu shall take occasion to allude to it more
particularly at a future day.
an anomalous blkction.
If not positively restrained bv higher au
thority at Washington, we hope Gen. Meade s
sense of justice, law and right, will inc uce
him to take into serious consideration, with
a view to correction, the extraordinary elec
tion ortiinance of tho late Atlanta Conven
tion. To order an election on the ratification
of a Constitution, and at the same time, and
on the same ticket, another election for gov
ernment officers under that Constitution, be
fore it has received tbe popular approval and
been vitalized into a law, is without a paral
lei in tbo history of government. It is in
consistent, a violation of all propriety, and
opposed to all law. To hold an election
under a Constitution that has no existence le
gally or de facto, is a political monstrosity,and
in view of the corrupt motives that dictated
it, no good man can approve it. It looks as
if the Convention had resolved to forestall
the people, thus to act without reference to
their will as expressed at the polls—as if the
cards had been stocked for foul play, and it
was contemplated to put tlio Constitution
over tbe people whether they wished it or
not. The whole thing is as shameless in good
morals as it is reckless and monstrous in
politics, and we trust tbnt Gen. Meade will
demonstrate his respect for legal usage and
bis contempt for fraud and wrong by sepa
rating these elections and ordering them to
take place on different days. Nothing that
is right can be affected by tlio change, while
a great deal that is irregular, illegal and
wrong may be prevented!
The Meeting Yesterday.—Tlio meeting
at tbe Court House, yesterday, to nominate
county officers, was large and enthusiastic.
Harmony and good feeling prevailed, and so
far as we could learn, the nominations gave
universal satisfaction. All tho old county
officers were presented for re-clcction, a trib
ute of well done for their services in the past.
The Legislative ticket is about tho strongest
that could be nominated, and from the well-
known liberal and conservative sentiments of
the candidates, which should make them ac-
ccptiblo to all classes, black as well as white,
wo cannot doubt their election. They will
do even-handed justice to all, and the freed-
men will be very foolish to bring out any op
position.
Important Omission.—The Atlanta Opin
ion, in publishing tbe resolutions of the Cen
tral Executive Committee, by tho omission
of the word “no^making the Committee say
just the opposite to what it did say, thus:
Speaking of Judge Irwin: “We are satisfied
that he holds views inimical to the honor
and welfare of Georgia.” The correct text is
that "ho holds no views inimical,” etc.

the President, returning to Congress, with
his objections, tho bill amending the judi
ciary act, by a provision divesting the Su
preme Court of jurisdiction on appeals per
taining to tho highest interests of the citi
zen, is a brief but clear and forcible, ns well
as dignified and temperate paper. Tbe rev
olutionists, says tbe Nashville Union &
Dispatch, may eject its author from his high
office, but history will do justice to tlie man,
who standing iu tlie trial dock, and threat
ened amid the revealings and denunciations
of the Jacobin crew, with decapitation, res
olutely forbids to the extent of the remnant
of authority left him, their encroachments
on public liberty. Such acts, impotent
though they unfortunately aro, in the lan
guage of M. Guillardet, “make 3Ir. Johnson
appear grand amid tbo usurpers and desert
ers from the law.” One of the Radical jour
nals jeeringly announce this ns his last veto,
and it may be; but bis fate, if he falls, will
be a proud one, and as honorable ns that of
tho Roman soldier whose skeleton nnd armor
were found at the gate of Pompeii—tlie post

SAVANNAH municipal election
We regret to sec, from the .list of names
mentioned in the pagem
not prominent. We hope that he has not
declined to run for re election, nnd should be
pained to believe that, from supposed policj
or any other motive, the people of that city
have concluded to ignore his services io the
past, or dispense with them in the future.
We have known much of the city government
of our great seaport during the last fifteen
yems, and have no hesitation in saying that
Edward C. Anderson has been a model Mftyor
in every respect. To superior intelligence
and uprightness of character, he has com
bined an energy and devotion to the great
interests of the city that no other roan who
1ms filled tbe office of late years can justly
claim for himscli. It has been energy and j
devotion, too, intelligently and successfully
directed. His sagaciousjnind has looked
out and comprehended every question that
involved her commercial welfare and good
government, while his superior administra
tive abilities have applied means to ends
with an cffictivcncss that have commanded
the admiration of a discerning public, and
secured for his city a degree of prosperity
and progress that arc unrivalled in the his
tory of her sister cities of the Mouth. Can
Savannah afford to lose such an of-
cerf Will she be consulting her
best interests by yielding to an un
reasonable whim or timid considerations
of present expediency, anil swapping him for
another in every respect his inferior, but for
whom the hats of the unthinking populace
are thrown up with a little more enthusiasm ?
We think not, and would entreat the nom
inating committee appointed by tbe public
meeting on Tuesday to pause long and think
well before they consent to dispense with the
services of one who has done so much for
the city, and whose intelligent labors are so
much needed in the critical future upon
which she is entering.
We do not write in the spirit or
intcrmeddlcr, nor yet from the promptings
of private friendship. Savannuli belongs to
Georgia. She is the market and seaport for
nearly all the products, of the State, and
hence every citizen not only feels a becoming
pride in her prosperity and greatness, but
bus a direct interest in tbe good management
of her internal affairs. It is with this view
that we indite these paragraphs, and voluu
teer our counsel to the good people of our
sister city.

A Protest,
TnE Policy in Georgia.—The New York
Herald, which at least is a shrewd journal,
approves our suggestion to make no issue
with the Radicals on the Congressmen in the
coming election, but devote our efforts to se
curing a jirotper Governor and Legislature.
It says on this pMnt:
“On tlio whole, wc are inclined to think
this tlio bc3t policy. Successful in their
choice of officers in the State government, the
Conservatives can so arrange their local leg
islation as to suit emergencies that may
henceforth arise upon questions afjecting
purely a local and, to themselves, most im
portant interests. The natural instincts of
self-preservation dictate (he propriety of
adopting this policy. By this means they
may eventually secure two sound representa
tives in the United States Senate. No'delc-
gation the Radicals iu Georgia can possibly
send to the House of Representatives at
“Washington will enbnnco the popularity of
tho Radicals in the North and “West; and if
they can squeeze in a negro or two, so much
the better. Give Congresa rope enough and
it will hang itself. Therefore let the Con-
re vatives of Georgia look to the securement
of power in the State Legislature, nnd let the
Congressional delegation take care of itself
for tho present.”
Macon, Ga., March 26, 1863.
Tho undersigned having been politely invited
by Mr. Rockwell, the bead of tho colored schools
in Macon, to attend the dedicatory exercises of
tbo Lewis High School on the afternoon of the
26tb insl., and feeling a deep interest in the
welfaro of our colored population, repaired to
tbo now chapel at the appointed time, and were
invited to occupy seats on the platform. In a
short time ono Wicr, from Atlanta, who claims
to bo tho Superintendent of Education in Geor
gia, was introduced as tue orator of the occasion,
and from tho high and responsible posi.iou be
holds, wo wero almost prepared to expect a
flow of roason and loast of soul.’’ But contrary
to every principle of propriety and good tasto,
he introduced bis speech with a bitter tirado
against tho South. His whole introduction was
nothing but a low appeal to tho vulgar prejudi
ces of tho crowd.
Bat, to add insult to injury, ho had the moral
hardihood to state that tho Gospel had never
been preached till Northern preachers came down
and taught them the tine way of life. Where
upon we instantly rose and, with a feeling of In
dignation. lift the hall. We believed this would
be the only proper protest we could then and there
enter against tbe gross slander which the speaker
had cast upon the character of the 8ontbcrn
clergy. Jn behalf of all our brethren of every de
nomination, from the Potomac to tbe Rio Grande,
we pronounce the above statement false na thi-
pliilanlhropy ol Northern negTopbllisls.
God pity us when vje have to depend upon New
England for religious instrncticn, a section of the
country which has made the pn’plt a powerful
political engine, and which for half a century bas
been tho hot bed of every heresy in religion which
has cursed this land. We arc now fully persuaded
that there can never exist any true peace and har
mony between tbe two races so long ns the politi
cal pnachcrs and pseudo philanthropists of tbe
North have control of the educational and reli
gions interests ot the frcidmtu.
Onr people caDnot co-operate with this class of
teachers in carrying forward this Important work.
Our views arc so essentially different from theirs
that a united movement on the Eobjcct is simply
Impossible. They must educate this class of the
community In their way, or wo most do it in
ours.
Wc have only to say, In conclusion, that if the
bends of the Airican schools in Macon with Christ-
i.n gentlemen to be present at their public excr-
c‘ns, they must engage none but C’brlslijn gei -
tie ucn to deliver addr.sses on eucIi occasions.

gained—the height under the sheds being 17 feet for

A cistern or reservoir, cnpablo of holding 30,000 or
40,000 gallons, will occupy the centre of the yard and
receivo all water from the warehouse roofs, through
iron pipes, and thus prevent it from rotting the floor
ing. which is the case in some warehouses. An over
flow pipe will connect this cistern with the draiu run
ning through tbe vaults of ihe water closets of the
whole establishment, which will be located under the
sidewalk iu front, and should the water from the
roof of the stores fail at any time, by the aid of a force
pump the vaults can be kept clean. This reservoir
would bo found very serviceable, too. in case of a fire.
In front, and in different other portions of tho walls,

concurred in by tho meeting.

upon our success in the contest.
Colonel Thomas Hardeman, Jr., delivered abrief
but eloquent addrers, in response to repeated aid
continued calls. After heartily endirsiug tbenoai-
nees, he stated that he fully agreed wiih Mr. But,
in his sentiments, that the interest of both race,«at
involved in tho peaceful solution of the present ini
before the people of this State. Uewiched toconvim
tho colored race that tho I'uritnns-mcn who sell
their slaves down South when they ceased tobeprofi-

ceeds of tbat sale to grind tbe South—were not (belt
best friends. The interests of tho races are ideati-
cal. and what injuriously affects one disasttoaiij
affects tho other—the interests, of labor and capita!
were one. and could not be separated without read.-
ir.g in tho ruin of both. As tbo colored zeit dh
weaker race, he considered it the part ofmagmuim j
on tho patt of tbe whites to see that the colored ret
were protected in all their riihts. The gcntlemes
who had been selected by the meeting, he tta, cot-
viuced. would strive to secure these rights to ihe col
ored people, and his only regret was that there wu
not more of them pre-ent to receive the assurance dal

principle of universal justice.
In conclusion, be conjured all to rally to the ciai
of Constitutional libeity, which he believed to be in-
perilled in the contest, and upon the result of which
depended the ruin or prosperity of our country.

that was to give a united and hearty suppoit to the

that tbe ticket could not bo beaten, and wasbouud

While fully concurring in this opinion, we cannot
let tho opportunity pass without fully and cordidiJ
endorsing the ticket, and expressing our approbation
thereof.
We know that two out of tho three gentlemen se

An i some shall wake to glory.
And some shall wako to weep.
Ku-Klux.
Ateiver black is running
To a blacker sea afar.
And by its banks is waving
A flag without a star;
There move the ghostly columns
Of tho swift Brigade of Death,
And evoiy villain sleeping
Is gasping now for breath.
Ku-KJux.
Thrice hath tho lone owl hooted,
And thrice tho panther cried.
And twilter through tho d;ukncss
The Bale Brigade shall ride.
jSo trumpet sounds its coming,.
And no drum-beat stiis tho air,
But noiseless in their vengeance,
They wreak it everywhere.
Ku-Klux.
Fir! fly! yo dastard bandits.
Who are bleeding all the land,
Tho Death Brigadu is marching
With viewlessswoid and braid;
Nor think that from its vci ueaLco
You in deepest dens may hide,
For through tho darkest caverns
Tho Dread Brigade will ride.
. Ku-Klux.
Tho misty gray is hanging
Un the tresses of the Bast,
And the morn shall tell tho story
Of the revel and tho feast.
Too ghostly troop shall vanish
Like the light in constant eh ud,
Bu' where they rode .-hail gather
Tho coffin and the shroud.
